jribRoyB72: .insight.res.rr.com]  has joined #ubuntu-classroom12:57
jribRoyB72: sorry, I mean: http://webcvs.freedesktop.org/xapps/xwinwrap/12:57
RoyB72thx...12:57
RoyB72hmm... don't get it12:59
jribRoyB72: what don't you get?12:59
RoyB722 files... got some log when I clicked on xwinwrap01:00
jribRoyB72: yeah, needs to be compiled01:00
RoyB72so I need to download the 2 and compile?01:01
jribRoyB72: there may be compiled debs somewhere, let me search01:01
jribRoyB72: what version of ubuntu?01:02
RoyB72damn u're good to me.. been searching for it for 3 hours, but I suck in that :(01:02
RoyB72kubuntu edgy.. 1101:02
jribRoyB72: http://3v1n0.tuxfamily.org/dists/edgy/beryl-svn/  I don't know anything about that repo, so I suggest just using it for xwinwrap01:03
jribRoyB72: you can download the deb and double click so that you don't need to add the repo to sources.list01:05
RoyB72:) thx.. A LOT!!01:05
jribnp01:05
naliothRoyB72: be careful doing so01:06
naliothRoyB72: some packages want "debian" depends for functionality01:06
naliothif you add the "debian" packages into your Ubuntu, you hose your box.01:06
RoyB72dpkg: error processing ///home/royb/Desktop/xwinwrap_0.1+cvs20060209_i386.deb (--install):01:07
RoyB72 package architecture (i386) does not match system (amd64)01:07
RoyB72:(01:07
jribRoyB72: just compile then01:08
jribit's the added fun of using amd64!01:08
naliothdon't forget powerpc01:09
=== nalioth loves it
RoyB72hmm... how do I compile the 2 files then?01:14
jribRoyB72: you have them downloaded in the current directory?01:14
RoyB72yea01:14
RoyB72makefile and xwinwrap.c01:14
jribRoyB72: sudo aptitude install build-essential libx11-dev && make01:14
RoyB72Makefile:5: *** missing separator.  Stop.01:15
jribyou broke it01:15
jribRoyB72: what does your Makefile look like inside?01:15
RoyB72weird... to say the least...01:17
jribRoyB72: what is on line 5?01:17
RoyB72losts of emty space in the middle01:18
RoyB72<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"01:18
jribRoyB72: you pressed the "download" link right?  You didn't right-click > save as?01:18
jribyeah, it's a webpage, I did that too, don't worry :)01:18
RoyB72"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">01:18
RoyB72yea.. save as01:18
jribRoyB72: yeah you need to left click on the file, it will show you a revision history01:19
jribie http://webcvs.freedesktop.org/xapps/xwinwrap/Makefile?view=log01:19
RoyB72yea.. I saw that.. went back and saved the makefile01:20
RoyB72ohh you mean go in there and click on download the 1.1.1.1 revision?01:20
jribRoyB72: yes01:21
RoyB72that one's short01:23
jribgood, do the same for xwinwrap.c and try make again01:23
RoyB72yay.. no errors this time01:25
jribRoyB72: then just run xwinwrap with:  ./xwinwrap01:25
RoyB72ok.. looks fine to me.. where do I put it so the desktop setup can find it?01:27
RoyB72nalioth what was the command to enter nvidia setup?01:29
jribRoyB72: /usr/local/bin is a fine place01:29
jribyou can also just leave it there and run it with a full path, like  /home/roy/xwinwrap01:30
RoyB72yeah.. well.. don't like to write much.. hehe01:30
nalioth!nvidia01:32
ubotuTo install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto01:32
RoyB72I done that.. just don't remember how I started the config01:34
nalioth!xcfg01:39
ubotuThe X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type  sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto01:39
naliothi DO wish they'd leave the bloody factoids alone01:39
naliothi'm tired of having to type this out every time01:39
naliothsudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg01:39
naliothi made the bloody thing a factoid for a reason01:39
naliothbut they keep changing it01:40
RoyB72nahh... not in there... when I installed nvidia drivers, I could enter the nvdidia with a simple command from konsole...01:44
jrib!xconfig01:44
RoyB72just don't remember what it was01:44
ubotuTo reconfigure your X server, open a console and type  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg  - To configure only the driver and resolution, type  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh  - See also !FixRes01:44
jribheh, someone is splitting them up01:45
RoyB72was something with nvidia01:45
jribRoyB72: nvidia-settings  ?01:45
RoyB72damn I'm stupid.. tried all nvidia commands with CONFIG.. lol01:46
RoyB72thx01:46
RoyB72gonna write that one down too..01:46
jribRoyB72: after I forget something I knew I write it in ~/notes and then I just grep it when I need something01:47
RoyB72why did I think it was something with config?01:47
RoyB72anyone knows why I get a flicker on black color when I change window?01:48
RoyB72hmm.. can't change resolution in nvidia settings?01:50
jribI just use system > preferences > screen resolution01:50
RoyB72I can't go there after I installed nvidia01:51
jribRoyB72: what happens when you try?01:52
RoyB72just says the module Monitor & Display could not be loaded01:53
jribhmm01:53
RoyB72that happened on my previous installation too01:53
jribRoyB72: ok, what happens when you use nvidia's tool?01:54
RoyB72but I remember I could change the resolutions on nvidia settings after I installed them01:54
RoyB72just shows me all the facts, can change color and shit, bot no resolution01:55
jribRoyB72: YOu don't have "X Server Display Configuration" on the left?01:56
RoyB72no.. just xserver: color correction and xvideo settings01:56
RoyB72opengl settings.. opengl/glx info01:57
RoyB72antialiasing settings, thermal monitor, display device...01:57
jribRoyB72: weird, try #ubuntu.  I have not seen that before01:59
RoyB72yeah... thx02:00
RoyB72under advanced background settings, setting up a background program like this should work, right?02:05
RoyB72under command: xwinwrap -ni -argb -fs -s -st -sp -b -nf -- /usr/lib/xscreensaver/glmatrix -window-id WID -delay 1000002:06
RoyB72and executable: xwinwrap + xscreensaver02:06
RoyB72that's pasted commands, just don't know if they are in the right places02:09
RoyB72get: glmatrix: window 0x2400002's visual 0x134 does not support the GLX extension.02:42
RoyB72anyway to fix that?02:42
RoyB72tried to run the above command in konsole02:43
