=== crdlb is terrible at troubleshooting fglrx btw
Dragoonboysame thing01:48
=== Dragoonboy is greatful becasue your the only one helping
crdlbDragoonboy, that's what lsmod|grep fglrx says ?01:49
Dragoonboyoh01:49
Dragoonboyhango n01:49
Dragoonboythat dosnt return anything01:49
crdlbDragoonboy, then: sudo modprobe fglrx01:50

Dragoonboythats prolly bad01:52
crdlb!ati01:52
ubotuTo install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto01:52
crdlbDragoonboy, try: sudo apt-get install linux-generic01:54
Dragoonboydont think I have tryed this yet... ill let you know01:54
Dragoonboylinux-generic is already the newest version.01:55
crdlbhmm, no idea01:58

DragoonboyXlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0....... any idea why this line refers to Xfree86 and not xorg?02:10
crdlbprobably because fglrx hasn't been updated since the fork02:11
crdlb(between xfree86 and xorg)02:11
Dragoonboyhmmm02:12
Dragoonboydoes all the ubuntu's use xorg? or just Xubuntu?02:12
crdlball the ubuntu's are 100% identical except for the desktop02:13
crdlbyou can easily turn ubuntu into xubuntu for example by apt-get installing xubuntu-desktop02:13

asdfasdffdasHey, I'm in xubuntu right now, and the installer can't see my partitions on my hard drive. I can see them by fdisking as root, but the installer only sees /dev/sda02:30
peweeencountered that, like, twice02:31
peweefor me it worked with hardcore rebooting again and again, and poof02:31
asdfasdffdashmm02:31
Dragoonboyare you looking for /dev/hda? I never saw it... I just used the installer and edited the partation02:31
peweemore of a workaround than a solution, but works for me02:31
DragoonboyIt said my drives were scsi too... and they are SO not.... but it works...02:32
asdfasdffdasI'm looking for partitions, but on the partition editor there are no partitions only the device /dev/sda and the option to create a new partition table02:32
asdfasdffdasI already have partitions for the OS and for swap, along with 2 ntfs file systems02:32

asdfasdffdasI can see all my partitions through fdisk, though02:36
asdfasdffdashowever I can only see them through fdisk as root, is there a way to run the installer as root or login as root?02:37

brokenbini didn't know there was a pastebin11:12
brokenbinlol11:12
hyper_chthere are many11:12
hyper_chI personally prefer www.phpfi.com11:13
hyper_chas you can set keywords (like your nickname) and later search for that again :911:13
maxamillionhyper_ch: nice! ... i'll have to remember that one11:13
hyper_chthe original one is www.pastebin.org  --> however that has become quite slow11:13
brokenbinhttp://phpfi.com/22142911:16
brokenbinthere it is11:16
hyper_chhmmm, I don't see anything wrong11:18
brokenbintoo many files maybe?11:18
hyper_chplease pastebin the output of     ls -al /files11:18
brokenbinhold on, my interet is slow now11:22
brokenbinhttp://phpfi.com/22143011:23
hyper_chah I see11:24
hyper_chthe files are being mounted as root user11:25
hyper_chthe simplest solution would be to chown them :)11:25
brokenbinwhat's wrong with that?11:25
=== mode/#xubuntu [+o maxamillion] by ChanServ

hyper_chI just tend to think it's not all running as root11:30
=== mode/#xubuntu [-o maxamillion] by maxamillion
brokenbinwhat can i do to make it so?11:31
hyper_chyou shouldn't run as root in first place11:32
brokenbini am only running as root now because i need the access to some files11:33
hyper_chroot is a no-go11:34
brokenbinsamething under my other username11:34
hyper_chunder the other username it's clear... because it's not chowned correctly11:35
brokenbinand i do use that username under all other curcumstances11:35

ricihere's a puzzler: when i type a subject line in thunderbird, xorg starts taking up 98% CPU time, and the response is noticeably sluggish. It doesn't happen in the body of the message, and it's less in the to: and cc: bars. Could this have something to do with my font settings?12:19
