| gringostar | Hi, I'm using Xubuntu 10.10 on a presario laptop r3000 using the nvidia 96 driver. I was using a TV monitor in twin view when I tried the separate X screen option at the reboot the x server didnt load. I was asked for login and password then the command prompt. I'm now in recovery mode & failsafe graphic mode. I tried to load a backup of my xorg.conf but it give the same result (black screen/ password/ command). How can I solv | 02:24 |
| gringostar | e this? | 02:24 |
| Unit193 | gringostar: did you try X -configure? | 02:32 |
| bdog | hey anybody know how to make my speakers work only one side outputs sound | 02:40 |
| gringostar | Unit193 will try... | 02:44 |
| gringostar | brb | 02:45 |
| gringostar | Unit193: I'm back in normal mode but I'm not using the nvidia driver | 02:58 |
| gringostar | will reboot | 02:59 |
| nicofs_ | My xubuntu doesn't start anymore - i get as far as the splash screen (console says "Checking battery state... [ok]") - and then it stalls... | 10:18 |
| nicofs_ | i guess that something that is supposed to be loaded stalls - where can i check, what is loaded at startup? | 10:42 |
| nicofs_ | i know the problem is located somewhere in /etc/init.d/ and related folders - but i don't see in what order the scripts are executed... | 10:57 |
| nmaizey | anyone with experience with vnc able to help me with an issue? | 11:30 |
| Sysi | nmaizey: they can't know if they have enough experience if they don't know te problem | 11:36 |
| Sysi | nicofs_: can you get to recovery? | 11:37 |
| Sysi | \failsafe | 11:37 |
| nmaizey | Im having issues with admin password screens when using remote viewers... I can get connection fine to my server but whenever i do something that requires the root password to be entered (i.e create new user) in the GUI the window does not show in the viewer... but if i plug the monitor into my server its showing there... have i got a setting wrong or something? | 11:40 |
| Sysi | i think it's problem with gksudo, but i don't know how would you fix it | 11:41 |
| Sysi | but it's same in "normal" ubuntu | 11:41 |
| nmaizey | hmm k | 11:42 |
| nmaizey | guess i have to learn the terminal commands better then :-) | 11:42 |
| beefsalad | nmaizey: you'll probably need to do something like export DISPLAY=0:0 | 11:43 |
| beefsalad | errr 0.0, not 0:0 | 11:44 |
| Sysi | what would it change? | 11:44 |
| Sysi | (i don't say not worth a try..) | 11:46 |
| beefsalad | it changes the display variable.... since the app is opening in the wrong place it's worth a try | 11:50 |
| beefsalad | I'm also guessing that 0.0 is where the display actually is ;) | 11:50 |
| Sysi | hum, i dunno enough about vnc to say if that matters | 11:51 |
| nmaizey | nah same issue but thanks | 11:52 |
| nmaizey | after all that just worked out everything i need in terminal anyway so thanks for the help :-) | 12:00 |
| beefsalad | Sysi: it does | 12:01 |
| beefsalad | or I should say, it can... | 12:01 |
| Sysi | of course *can* but i don't/didn't undertant how | 12:02 |
| Sysi | luckily we're getting rid of xorg :P | 12:06 |
| beefsalad | don't remember what xorg is being replaced with, but I have a feeling it's not going to fix everything wrong with X | 12:28 |
| mhall119 | wayland | 17:32 |
| charlie-tca | huh? | 17:33 |
| charlie-tca | !info wayland | 17:33 |
| ubottu | Package wayland does not exist in maverick | 17:33 |
| nicofs | Booting stalls after "checking battery state... [ok]" - i guess something from /etc/init.d that should be loaded is causing trouble - how do i find out what exactly? | 20:39 |
| Sysi | you could first try booting to older kernel | 20:40 |
| nicofs | Sysi, only one available... :-( | 20:41 |
| nicofs | failsafe works, though | 20:41 |
| charlie-tca | nicofs: natty? | 20:41 |
| charlie-tca | Natty did that today, just had to login on a tty and start gdm | 20:42 |
| nicofs | charlie-tca, jep.. until yesterday all was fine... | 20:42 |
| nicofs | ok, will give it a try | 20:42 |
| charlie-tca | bug 735805 | 20:42 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 735805 in gdm (Ubuntu) "GDM fails to start" [High,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/735805 | 20:42 |
| charlie-tca | that's why we use #ubuntu+1 for natty. they have the answers already | 20:42 |
| nicofs | charlie-tca, ok, didn't know... | 20:43 |
| charlie-tca | no problem | 20:43 |
| charlie-tca | Just might get the wrong answers here, since these people are not running the development release and things change when using it | 20:44 |
| nicofs | another question: is anyone here familiar with using multiple internet connections at the same time? | 20:48 |
| Sysi | basically it's harder to configure that you'd gain from it | 20:50 |
| Sysi | if you son't mean something like different connection to internet and other to home network | 20:50 |
| Sysi | even if you'd gain a lot from it it's hard | 20:50 |
| nicofs | i can connect to the internet via eth0 and wlan0 - two different physical networks... but i get kicked out of them frequently... so it would be great to just use them together so i can use whatever works at the moment... | 20:52 |
| nicofs | (by kicked out i don'T mean disconnected - i stay connected but the internet is gone...) | 20:52 |
| Sysi | reboot your router | 20:53 |
| nicofs | it's not my router... sadly, i can'T reboot anything other than my pc | 20:53 |
| nicofs | i found a howto somewhere that was connected to a program i installed - but i can't find it atm... | 20:55 |
| Sysi | it used to be possible to have both active but idk how that worked | 20:55 |
| nicofs | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBonding | 20:56 |
| nicofs | that's the guide... but i'm stuck configuring it... | 20:56 |
| Cort | hello? | 22:29 |
| ochosi | !hi | 22:29 |
| ubottu | Hi!, Welcome to #xubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines. Enjoy your stay! | 22:29 |
| Cort | hello, I was wondering if there was any way to install Xubuntu without the live cd or usb | 22:30 |
| charlie-tca | use the alternate cd? | 22:30 |
| charlie-tca | are you trying to do it without any cd or usb-drive? | 22:30 |
| Cort | Yeah, without the cd or usb | 22:32 |
| charlie-tca | !install | 22:33 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall - Don't want to use a CD? See http://tinyurl.com/3exghs - See also !automate | 22:33 |
| charlie-tca | check that last link | 22:33 |
| Cort | all right, thank you! | 22:33 |
| Cort | if I do it directly from the hdd, would it erase the version of windows I have installed? | 22:34 |
| Cort | sorry, i've only been using Puppy Linux from a usb before, don't know much about the installing process | 22:35 |
| charlie-tca | I don't know, myself, but I would not think so. You do have to be careful partitioning the drive out, since the image can not be in the partition used for the installation | 22:35 |
| ochosi | Cort: your installation method (cd, usb, netinstall) doesn't have any connection with the second os installed. you just have to get the partitioning right | 22:36 |
| charlie-tca | Make sure you have a backup of important stuff | 22:36 |
| ochosi | +1 | 22:37 |
| Cort | How exactly do I partition? Never done it before | 22:38 |
| charlie-tca | !partition | 22:41 |
| ubottu | For help with partitioning a new install see: https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/switching/installing-partitioning.html - For partitioning programs see !GParted, !QtParted (!Kubuntu 8.10 and lower) or !PartitionManager (!Kubuntu 9.04 and up) - Other partitioning topics include !fstab !home and !swap | 22:41 |
| charlie-tca | Use gparted | 22:42 |
| charlie-tca | !GParted | 22:42 |
| ubottu | gparted is a !GTK/!Gnome !GUI partitioning program. Type « sudo apt-get install gparted » in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php | 22:42 |
| Cort | this is really helpful, thanks | 22:43 |
| Cort | so I use GParted before installing xubuntu, right? | 22:46 |
| charlie-tca | yup | 22:49 |
| charlie-tca | You use gparted to create a partition to put the image in, I think. | 22:49 |
| charlie-tca | I really can't be much help with it, since I haven't seen windows in about 6 years now | 22:51 |
| Cort | that's ok, I think I get how to do this | 22:53 |
