MattQC | hello | 05:28 |
---|---|---|
gantrixx | anyone here? | 05:29 |
hypatia | yup! | 05:29 |
MattQC | hello | 05:30 |
MattQC | yep, I would hope so | 05:30 |
gantrixx | This is the first time this has ever happened. When I rebooted, my computer goes into text mode. If I try to manually start gdm, it says it is already started | 05:30 |
MattQC | gantrixx hypatia: how are you both? | 05:30 |
gantrixx | MattQC, I'm frustrated | 05:30 |
gantrixx | how are you? | 05:30 |
MattQC | hmm, odd? | 05:31 |
MattQC | never had that happen before | 05:31 |
gantrixx | ctrl-alt-F7 just results in blank screen | 05:31 |
MattQC | I'm okay, seeing I don't have a verbose login problem | 05:31 |
MattQC | I think that's what they call it, verbose mode, no? | 05:32 |
MattQC | I'm vacillating now between Fedora 14 and Ubuntu 10.10 | 05:32 |
gantrixx | oh, I think I might know what it is | 05:32 |
hypatia | gantrixx: can you kill it and then restart it? | 05:32 |
hypatia | that's odd | 05:32 |
hypatia | what do you think it is? | 05:33 |
gantrixx | fglrx | 05:33 |
gantrixx | I was trying to remove mysql-server | 05:34 |
hypatia | ahh | 05:34 |
gantrixx | for some reason it had some dependency on fglrx | 05:34 |
gantrixx | and it couldn't uninstall fglrx | 05:34 |
gantrixx | so maybe it partially removed it | 05:34 |
gantrixx | there are some weird things with 10.10 | 05:34 |
hypatia | that is mega weird | 05:35 |
gantrixx | well that was it | 05:35 |
MattQC | I've always been an Ubuntu type, but wanted to give Fedora a look see with the new release | 05:36 |
hypatia | how's that been working, MattQC ? | 05:37 |
MattQC | hypatia: back | 05:50 |
hypatia | wb | 05:50 |
MattQC | hypatia: Thanks. Now chatting from Pidgin, via Windows :( | 05:51 |
hypatia | :( | 05:51 |
hypatia | at least it's pidgin! | 05:51 |
MattQC | Okay, I am going to ditch Fedora I think, and head back to Ubuntu | 05:51 |
MattQC | Yes yes, indeed | 05:51 |
hypatia | welcome back, i guess? :) | 05:51 |
MattQC | I´ve become used to XChat however | 05:51 |
MattQC | yes yes | 05:51 |
MattQC | Just easier to configure the installer, and on my ThinkPad too | 05:51 |
MattQC | checked power consumption on the other distro via PowerTop, and it´s about the same | 05:52 |
MattQC | I am going to head to bed shortly however. It´s almost 2am here in Montréal | 05:52 |
