[01:01] <nothingssomethin> hey
[01:01] <nothingssomethin> what's goin on i got a question
[01:04] <nothingssomethin> anyone avail
[01:06] <Nailor> ?
[01:12] <nothingssomethin> ooh
[01:12] <nothingssomethin> ok
[01:13] <nothingssomethin> well i have a dell laptop and i installed the nivida drivers and it starts up but dosn't run it goes blace
[01:14] <nothingssomethin> black
[01:14] <Nailor> Which way did you install nvidia drivers?
[01:15] <nothingssomethin> easy ubuntu
[01:15] <nothingssomethin> and i installed it by clicking desktop effects under preffrence
[01:15] <nothingssomethin> i fixed it once
[01:16] <nothingssomethin> and i rember it was
[01:16] <nothingssomethin> but i don't know the text the people told me
[01:16] <nothingssomethin> the problem was it was taging the wrong monoiter as the default monotor
[01:19] <Nailor> Maybe you could revert your easy ubuntu changes?
[01:19] <Nailor> And then try installing nvidia drivers etc. using synaptics (via nvidia-glx package)
[01:19] <Nailor> Using third party tools to install software (like easy ubuntu, automatix) is the best guarantee to get your computer broken so that no one is able to help you
[01:20] <Nailor> I don't know what easy ubuntu does, but seems it's like automatix, installing different software and (eventually) causing problems
[01:23] <nothingssomethin> no i just had to edit the file /etc/X11/xorg.conf or something and then it worked after i put that ltext and i just need the line again
[01:28] <Nailor> try: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[01:29] <Nailor> I strongly recommend not to use any automatic configuration tools like Easy Ubuntu and Automatix
[01:30] <Nailor> While they give you some advance in installing particular software you never can be too sure are the tools and the changes they do tested properly
[01:30] <Nailor> For example edgy->feisty upgrade was a pain to automatix users
[01:37] <nothingssomethin> 07:28:07 AM) Nailor: try: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg                     what does that do
[01:38] <nothingssomethin> is that a gui editor or an auto config
[01:39] <Nailor> Run it in terminal
[01:39] <Nailor> It asks details about your hardware and build your Xorg.conf according to those
[01:40] <nothingssomethin> would that help with the wrong configuration of my nvidia settings
[01:40] <Nailor> Might help
[01:41] <Nailor> You should try the official support channel #ubuntu for more help
[01:41] <Nailor> This channels is for the laptoptestingteam, not for support
[01:43] <nothingssomethin> aaah
