ubuntu____i'm not sure why, but i'm welcomed to a grub prompt when i am booting now21:19
ubuntu____will not boot kubuntu21:19
ubuntu____i installed through wubi21:19
ubuntu____i'm trying to mount the root.disk from a live cd right now, and am getting Input/output error21:20
ubuntu____when i ls -la on /win/ubuntu/disks, i get ???????? ? ? for the permissions etc of root.disk21:20
MacerDdpbf: i am reinstalling now21:21
Macerand disabled the encryption21:21
BluesKajDdpbf,  it uses the openchrome driver aka xserver-xorg-video-openchrome21:21
Ddpbfthat is opensource driver21:22
BluesKajit's the default in ubuntu repos21:22
Ddpbfi remember ther was few bugs for that driver in launchpad21:22
MacerDdpbf: like i am having? :-)21:23
Ddpbfnot21:23
ubuntu____i'll actually pay someone $100.00 to talk me through fixing this :(21:23
DdpbfMacer: that bug was solve easilly21:23
Ddpbfjyou need to create xorg.conf21:24
Macerwell.  i just hope it is a problem with the encryption21:24
Macerwow.. create one? thats old school.. havent gone through  those steps  in a long time21:24
Macer1 1 1 2 4 2 resolutions21:25
Macerhahha21:25
Maceri hated using the x vesa based config21:25
Ddpbfworst thing is xorg.conf i decapriated21:27
Ddpbfbut it is only way sometimes to kernel to find out wich module needs to be laded21:28
szalubuntu_______: forget about Wubi & do a real install..  and fix your wifi connection ;)21:28
BluesKajDdpbf, one can never be sure whether a proprietary driver is listed in menu or not so it doesn't hurt to check21:28
ubuntu_______szal: believe me i would, but there is work stuff on my wubi install21:30
ubuntu_______even if i can just recover these files, i'll consider it "solved"21:30
DdpbfBluesKaj: if company is not interested to write one  there is no point to check21:30
=== ubuntu_______ is now known as ^waffles
MacerDdpbf: which is  why  i am hoping it is a problem with the home dir encryption21:31

DdpbfMe too21:32
DdpbfIt could be dkms issue21:32

ussher_I have just added another video card and 2 monitors to make 4.  I can move the mouse to all 4 but on 2 of them the cursor becomes an X and I cant move any applications to those screens.  It feels like KDE isnt running there.  Is there a GUI way to fix this or do i need to mess around with xorg.conf?23:34
ussher_oh, its nvidia23:34
gomiboyussher_: if you see the X cursor it means that xorg configuration is ok... check in "System Settings" -> Display and Monitor" -> "Multiple Monitors"23:39
redeyyeztrying to install the nvidia driver for my pc, when i click additional drivers it says the driver has been activated but not in use.23:39
redeyyezwhat does this mean23:39
gomiboyredeyyez: the simplest way is to reboot if you have just installed it23:41
ussher_gomiboy: thanks for the hand.  in "Multiple monitors" it says "This module is only for configuring systems with a single desktop spread across multiple monitors, You do not appear to have this configuration."  (but it alwasy said that even with 2.)23:41
redeyyezI did reboot like it said, says its active now but not inuse.23:41
ussher_gomiboy: both cards are nvidia now, so i used the nvidia server settings GUI.  and when the cards wernt nvidia i used 'arandr' for the screen location setup.23:42
gomiboyussher_: then i can't help... you could have better luck in #kde... (my single 19 inches monitor cries...) :D23:44
Infernetredeyyez: find in applications, system, nvidia x server settings23:44
ussher_gomiboy: thanks.  there is a ton of stuff on the web for 'similar' things, but nothing that fits exactly.23:45
redeyyezfrom reading in forums it appears this is a bug in 11.04 though it claims its not in use others say it is anyway.23:48
BluesKajredeyyez, yes, if your desktop effects are working then the driver is working properly the message that it's not in use is bogus..been a bug for a while now23:49
redeyyezyeah i just switched the driver.  There was 2 availible for my card from nvidia.  Wierd flickering on opposite monitor when i resize things.  That and xsrver loves to crash when i run flash in a browser.  Hopefully this other driver will work better23:52
* redeyyez crosses his fingers23:52
Infernetredeyyez: refresh rate?23:53
Inferneti have a problem with this23:53
redeyyezthe normal settings shows a different one than nvidia's23:54
redeyyez60 hz refresh rate.23:54
redeyyezi changed the settings / monitor settings one to auto nvidias set it at 6023:56
