aenrick | ok then, I modified my resolution screen and then I cannot see anything(glitches, weird screen display, cant even see a word) That's my main problem, i'm trying to fix it and found some information on modyfign the xorg.conf but the file is empty. Another thing i tried is using the sudo reconfigure xserver xorg, it just ask me some info about my keyboard or stuff, forum said it is suposed to ask me for resolution settings | 01:02 |

ericcc | Hi all | 21:06 |
ericcc | I'm running Xubuntu Karmic alpha-5, and im having problems mounting my 1TB external NTFS hard disk | 21:07 |
ericcc | it tells me "Cannot get volume.fstype.alternative" | 21:07 |
ericcc | when i mount it manually it works fine however. I noticed there was a bug logged for this problem at the end of june but it has been closed. I've run chkdsk on the disk, dirty bit is not set, so its a bit of a mystery :s | 21:08 |

* jarnos wonders what Xorg is doing as it takes so much CPU | 22:01 | |
Sysi | failing mauybe | 22:06 |
Sysi | it still is quite heavy when it works as it should | 22:06 |
Ese | for some reason my usb doesn't work on my laptop | 23:13 |
Ese | it works in "the other OS" | 23:13 |
Sysi | what filesystem? | 23:14 |
Ese | ext4 | 23:15 |
Sysi | hmm, sorry but i'll need to go to bed, way too late here | 23:16 |
Techie | Ese- whats your problem? | 23:17 |
Ese | my usb mouse is not working on my laptop | 23:18 |
Ese | it did worked on other OS's | 23:18 |
Ese | it works on windows and opensuse | 23:18 |
Techie | what type of USB mouse? | 23:18 |
Techie | is it generic or is it a brandname? | 23:19 |
Ese | it seems very generic to me | 23:19 |
Techie | this may help, run lsusb in terminal and post the output to pastebin | 23:19 |
Techie | the mouse must be plugged in during this time, if it wasnt blatantly obvious already | 23:20 |
Ese | http://pastebin.com/m57248d14 | 23:21 |
Ese | hehe | 23:21 |
Ese | I'm not that n00b | 23:21 |
Techie | didnt think you were, but ive seen people that are | 23:21 |
Techie | okay, i think this is the line we are interested in | 23:22 |
Techie | Bus 001 Device 003: ID 04f2:b159 Chicony Electronics Co., Ltd | 23:22 |
Ese | yeah | 23:22 |
Ese | that's it | 23:22 |
Techie | hrmm, this laptop happent ot be a HP laptop | 23:26 |
Ese | yes, a probook 4410s | 23:27 |
Techie | i found a couple of bug reports for this issue, but no answers as of yet | 23:27 |
Techie | ill keep looking | 23:27 |
Ese | I found someone making the suggestion of trying sudo update-usbids | 23:28 |
Techie | run this please, mseg|grep usb | 23:28 |
Ese | and magically seemed to work out the issue, but not for me | 23:28 |
Ese | mseg? | 23:29 |
Ese | it says that is not a command | 23:29 |
Techie | kk | 23:29 |
Techie | have you tried any of the other USB ports? | 23:30 |
Ese | yep | 23:30 |
Ese | all 4 | 23:30 |
Techie | kk | 23:30 |
Techie | that cancels out that idea | 23:30 |
Ese | it seems to be a kernel related problem | 23:33 |
Techie | man, untill i saw some of these reports, i never thought there was such a thing as too much information | 23:33 |
Ese | heh | 23:33 |
Techie | http://www.mail-archive.com/ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com/msg1582640.html <---- TOO MUCH INFO | 23:33 |
Ese | "I was wearing an awesome "vote for pedro" t-shirt and a pair of white chucks when all of the sudden the mouse stop working" | 23:34 |
Ese | these kind of silly issues is why linux is not for everyone | 23:36 |
Techie | yeah, and its also why we have large support groups like this | 23:36 |
Techie | hello SiDi | 23:37 |
SiDi | hi | 23:38 |
Techie | honestly, i cant seem to find anything remotely useful | 23:39 |
Ese | it's frustrating | 23:42 |
Ese | such a small issue | 23:42 |
Techie | i know how you feel | 23:42 |
Ese | I've tried every usb device on my house | 23:42 |
Ese | and they all work | 23:42 |
Ese | even my wlan connection worked out of the box | 23:42 |
Techie | may i suggest an alternative | 23:42 |
Ese | bluetooth, everything | 23:42 |
Ese | suer | 23:42 |
Techie | buy a different mouse | 23:43 |
Ese | heh | 23:43 |
Ese | yeah, I was thinking about | 23:43 |
Ese | this one is not particulary small for a laptop | 23:43 |
Techie | ive learnt from experience that sometimes you jsut have to give up, thats why im running a windows server now instead of ubuntu | 23:43 |
SiDi | whats going on ? | 23:44 |
Techie | usb mouse issues | 23:44 |
SiDi | come on | 23:44 |
Ese | well I must say that opensuse completely did for me, what a great distro that is | 23:44 |
Techie | http://pastebin.com/m57248d14 <----- output from lsusb | 23:44 |
SiDi | if it doesnt work right after plug its most likely the kernel not recognising your motherboard correctly | 23:44 |
Techie | hehe, SiDi's always on the ball | 23:45 |
SiDi | SiDi is mostly on the way to his warm bed :D | 23:48 |
SiDi | Ese: if i were you i would google "usb mouse doesnt work + your laptop's model" | 23:48 |
SiDi | you can also perform a search in bugzilla.kernel.org about similar issues | 23:49 |
