So I thought I'd give KDE a try. I installed it, everything seems to be great but getting a wireless connection. I can see signals that are broadcast but I cannot get connected (in KDE, in Gnome it still works) [00:44] anyone active out there?

[00:48] ive been dealing with this for a few days, and im sure you could imagine how frustrating that could be [00:49] SaiNumeri: in Konsole: mv ~/.kde ~/.oldkde then logout of Kubuntu. At login screen choose "restart X server from the button that looks like an on-off switch. Log back into Kubuntu [00:53] i hope you can forgive my being a complete noob, but what is the 'konsole'? im assuming that you either mean the start button of sorts, or something else? [00:53] again, noob to the extreme [00:54] SaiNumeri: Konsole is a terminal emulator [00:56] ok, i just typed konsole into the search bar. the bash popped up. that it?

[00:59] SaiNumeri: You need a space between "mv" and "~/.kde" and another one between "~/.kde" and "~/.oldkde" [01:00] sorry, didnt see that. ok, so i just typed it in and hit enter, and it started a new command line. im assuming that it took the command, but it gave no confirmation message or prompt of any kind [01:00] safe in assuming that?

[08:58] Firefishe: download the driver form the nvidia website and install from the trminal [08:59] phoenix_: Isn't there a script that installs the driver? [09:02] Firefishe: i dont know, i downloaded the driver from the nvidia website and installed from the terminal [09:02] phoenix_: I found it: System>Admin>Hardware Drivers [09:02] Firefishe: try that, it didn't work for me [09:05] phoenix_: i'm bak, how can i confirm that the printer is installed? [09:05] phoenix_: I uninstalled, and am now redownloading and reinstalling the driver via the menu. If that does not work, I'll try the from-the-site method and use the terminal as you suggest. [09:06] To me, though, it seems to be more of a kde-rendering type of issue, rather than a video driver issue. The compositor may be responsible.
