[11:18] <drdozer> Hi - I updated to Merecat 2 days ago
[11:18] <drdozer> it went very well
[11:18] <drdozer> except, if the screensaver comes on, I can't get back into kde
[12:19] <coz_> hey guys... so far on maveick the wallpaper options are still not working... is this planned to be fixed??
[12:20] <Crashbit> coz_: working correctly for me
[12:21] <coz_> Crashbit,  I meant on dual monitor systems
[12:22] <Crashbit> I have only one monitor
[12:22] <coz_> Crashbit,  yes on single monitor they sort of pretend to work :)  but on dual monitors they dont work at all

[19:29] <DrHalan1> hey
[19:29] <DrHalan1> i still have nouveau booting instead of nivdia-current
[19:31] <BUGabundo> $ acpi -t
[19:31] <BUGabundo> Thermal 0: ok, 76.0 degrees C
[19:31] <BUGabundo> I bet my CPU is throtling now
[19:32] <BUGabundo> that why its soooo slow
[19:34] <DrHalan1> can i somehow remove the novueau kernel module to prevent it from being loaded?
[19:34] <DrHalan1> it is already blacklisted..
[19:50] <bjsnider> DrHalan1, make sure the nvidia driver is listed in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[20:55] <DrHalan> bjsinsider i've run the nvidia-xconfig thing so it should..
[21:00] <DrHalan> mh doesn't hlep
[21:00] <DrHalan> i think the problem is not the xorg-conf but the kernel loading nouveau
[21:02] <Volkodav> http://pastie.org/1030372  does that look like the disk is dying ?
[21:04] <bjsnider> Volkodav, why not look in the palimpsest utility? system>administration>disk utility
[21:04] <bjsnider> that gives you the smart data
[21:04] <Volkodav> makes sense
[21:04] <Volkodav> it keeps unmounting this sucker
[21:07] <Volkodav> smart says it has a few bad blocks - same as xfs utilities
[21:07] <DrHalan> "modprobe nvidia" tells me "nvidia not found "
[21:07] <DrHalan> am i missing a kernel module?
[21:08] <Volkodav> i guess it is going down - f@#$ng Western Digital piece of shit - the 4 th drive is dying on me with a year
[21:08] <bjsnider> possibly
[21:08] <bjsnider> DrHalan, run the command: dkms status
[21:08] <DrHalan> nvidia-current, 256.35, 2.6.35-6-generic, x86_64: installed
[21:08] <DrHalan> looks fine..
[21:08] <bjsnider> check this:
[21:08] <DrHalan> or maybe jockey is broken and jsut tellls me its not activated..
[21:09] <bjsnider> cat /lib/nvidia-current/modprobe.conf
[21:09] <DrHalan> but i have kms so i must just noveau
[21:09] <DrHalan> blacklist nouveau
[21:09] <DrHalan> blacklist lbm-nouveau
[21:09] <DrHalan> blacklist nvidia-173
[21:09] <DrHalan> blacklist nvidia-96
[21:09] <DrHalan> that looks fine too..
[21:09] <DrHalan> what video cards are supported by the newest driver?
[21:09] <bjsnider> cat /usr/lib/nvidia-current/modprobe.conf
[21:09] <DrHalan> i have a GeForce 7900 GT
[21:10] <bjsnider> that is supported
[21:10] <DrHalan> says: alias nvidia nvidia-current
[21:10] <bjsnider> put that in the other file too
[21:10] <DrHalan> alright
[21:10] <DrHalan> does taht set the name for the kernel module?
[21:10] <bjsnider> sudo echo "alias nvidia nvidia-current" >> /lib/nvidia-current/modprobe.conf
[21:11] <bjsnider> it means the nvidia-current module is also going to be called nvidia
[21:11] <DrHalan> it says permission denied
[21:11] <DrHalan> ill use gedit
[21:12] <DrHalan> okay i guess i have to reboot
[21:12] <bjsnider> try the modprobe command now
[21:12] <DrHalan> oh okay it didn't output anything so i guessed it worked
[21:12] <bjsnider> it did
[21:12] <DrHalan> if i restart now will it default to nvidia?
[21:13] <bjsnider> it will
[21:13] <bjsnider> very much so
[21:13] <DrHalan> okay ill try that
[21:13] <DrHalan> thank you very much :)
[21:20] <DrHalan> jockey still says that nvidia-current isn't used but according to the logfile it is
