=== francisco is now known as Guest30825 [01:26] I'm running 10.04 LTS w/ NVidia video and chipset. [01:26] My video resolution will not go higher than 640x480 [01:26] any ideas/ [01:26] any ideas? [01:29] GWild: sudo glxinfo | grep -i render [01:31] szal: hmm, glxinfo not installed [01:31] let me install it [01:33] szal: What am I looking for? [01:33] GWild: where? [01:33] szal: in the glxinfo output [01:34] GWild: that what comes up w/ the grep pipe, that isn't there for nothing ;) [01:35] szal: Let me rephrase. What it the output of the glxinfo command supposed to tell me? [01:36] GWild: let me rephrase: the above line I gave you is _one_ command [01:36] szal: I understand that and I have run the command [01:36] that should output a handful of lines, and it won't be too hard to put them on a pastebin, I guess ^^ [01:37] understood [01:38] szal: http://pastebin.com/KZwDbz1F [01:39] GWild: that answers the question whether the system is actually using the nVidia driver with 'yes' [01:40] ok [01:40] GWild: did you run 'nvidia-settings'? [01:41] szal: Yes. It will allow setting 320x240 and 640x480. [01:43] sounds a bit unlikely for a GF7.. [01:43] * szal would at that point suggest trying to boot with 'edd=on' as additional boot parameter [01:44] ok. I'll try that. Thanks for the input. [01:44] if that fixes it, put that parameter in /etc/default/grub in the line that starts with 'GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=' and run 'sudo update-grub' [01:45] ok [01:59] I tried installing kubuntu over ubuntu 11.04 but when I rebooted I got fatal IO error 11. Can anyone help with this? [02:00] * szal wouldn't try running *buntu on a C64 :D [02:00] *facepalm* [02:02] "Fatal Server error: Server is already active for display 0 If this server is no longer running, remove /tmp/.XO-lock and start again. [02:27] I've got everything in CUPS set to have one printer to default, but the other printer keeps coming up everytime I try to print, I have to select the printer I want. === mebisandi is now known as bugx === Unit193BeGone is now known as Unit193 [05:04] Good day, all.... [05:09] So... Who all is here? [05:10] $ns [05:10] D'oh! [05:22] hey folks. i'm on kubuntu 9.04 and my repos have disappeared. can anyone suggest the simplest way to update to something that still exists, without losing my stuff? [05:24] or, can anyone tell me what the GUI package manager I likely have installed is? [05:26] ah damnit, found kpackagekit but it can't update from jaunty to lucid :( [05:32] Hmm.... Hang on. [05:33] 9.04 is Karmic, is it not? [05:34] i don't think so. 9.10 is Karmic [05:34] Ok. [05:34] Let's open up the system terminal. [05:34] You likely have Konsole, I believe. [05:34] sure [05:35] (i'm not a noob, i just don't use the GUI much and i don't have e.g. menus, so I can't follow instructions like "Start System/Administration/Update Manager" (from the wiki)) [05:36] OK. [05:36] I'm trying to figure this out from a non-GUI perspective. [05:36] Let's see what I can do for you. [05:36] thanks =P [05:37] i'm a bit hesitant to just change my apt sources to something newer and do a dist-upgrade... [05:37] I would, honestly. [05:38] I started out with 9.10, and began looking at the newer distros online, in various preview pages, etc. [05:38] From there, I decided to download 10.10 and then upgrade via CD at that point. [05:39] i was quite excited to hear that ubuntu was going to switch to rolling releases (as reported by e.g. slashdot), turns out it wasn't true :( [05:39] Once I got my network working properly, I was able to upgrade to 11.04 via the link in the system notifier. [05:39] Anyway... Skipping ahead. [05:40] !update [05:40] For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/upgrade [05:41] ubottu: those instructions don't really help me [05:41] joedj_: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [05:41] ugh =P [05:42] lol [05:42] joedj_: I submitted the request for those instructions. [05:42] Did you follow either of the links provided? [05:43] yes, but they only really provide comic relief :) [05:43] e.g. "Be sure that you have all updates applied to Ubuntu 9.04 before you upgrade." [05:44] how do you do that when the repos are gone? [05:45] I do not have that information at the moment. Let me look around and I'll see if I can find something for you. [05:47] s'ok, i'll try the dist-upgrade and see how it goes. if it all goes to hell i'll just find another machine and get the stuff i care about off the old disk [05:48] I'm sorry, I can't find what I'm looking for. [05:48] Problem is, I should know this... >.> [05:48] joedj_: try "sudo apt-get install release-update" [05:49] Hey LINKSWORD2 [05:49] Dark! Perfect timing. [05:49] I'm trying to help joedj_ update his system and I just hit a mind-blank moment. [05:50] Ahh hah. [05:50] What can I do to help? [05:50] Help him upgrade. [05:50] Unless you have a harddrive I can stick in the back of my head. lol [05:52] joedj_: open terminal [05:52] joedj_: sudo apt-get install update-manager-core [05:52] joedj_: sudo do-release-upgrade [05:54] ... Now I feel stupid. [05:57] :) Naww, I've been doing it for years. [05:59] DarkwingDuck: heheh. i can't apt-get install anything. the 9.04 repos are gone [06:00] doh. i have do-release-upgrade, but it's too late now, the dist-upgrade is already running [06:00] Okay. [06:00] thanks, fingers crossed :) [06:00] dist-upgrade should work. [06:01] :) [06:01] DarkwingDuck: You usually don't mind if I one-on-one with ya, but I figure it's always a good idea to ask. [06:01] xD [06:01] May I? [06:02] Go for it. [07:00] This is gonna be a LONG night...

[13:14] I'm trying to install TweetDeck, and the installation was successful, but it's not getting along with Kwallet for some reason. How do I fix that? [13:16] ironfroggy: never heard of, where did you get that from? [13:16] MadRobot: This isn't a real answer to your question, but.... Adobe is going to be discontinuing Air for Linux. I personally use TweetDeck's chrome app. I think they have a general web interface in beta as well. [13:17] szal: from kubuntu.org [13:17] i dont really see how that part matters. my point was that it was a fresh install of 11.04 [13:17] but i have to go now. i'll figure it out later. [13:18] Pici: They're discontinuing AIR for Linux? That's great! I've never really liked Adobe anyway, but TweetDeck is just awesome. [13:18] Pici: they are? any link to an announcement? that's terrible news. [13:19] MadRobot: See https://www.tweetdeck.com/api/webbeta/ [13:19] ironfroggy: let me find it... [13:19] found it. well, i started to get some respect for them and now thats falling out the window. what a shame.

I'll just find something that looks similar to it [22:27] I don't really know. But if it's an option, it might be on that linotype website. [22:27] * Linkmaster has no monies [22:28] Heh. I installed Linux on my computer because I couldn't afford another copy of WXP. [22:28] And I thought it might be an interesting experiment. (To which I find true.)
