holstein | ssfdre38: ? | 17:44 |
holstein | 'the OS'? | 17:44 |
holstein | you mean ubuntustudio? | 17:45 |
ssfdre38 | yea | 17:45 |

holstein | here is where you can join the mailing lists http://ubuntustudio.org/support | 17:45 |
holstein | if this channel is too slow try #opensourcemusicians | 17:45 |
holstein | ssfdre38: ubuntustudio is as dead as you want it to be | 17:46 |
holstein | for me, its pretty active | 17:46 |
ssfdre38 | i had the 11.04 to see if it would do the do-upgrade-release and it went right to ubuntu's 11.10 upgrade | 17:46 |
holstein | right | 17:46 |
holstein | i did a test install last week | 17:47 |
holstein | installed 11.04 and upgraded to 11.10 | 17:47 |
holstein | worked OK for me.. i had to manually select the XFCE session at login | 17:47 |
ssfdre38 | i did and it was a black screen | 17:48 |
holstein | probably graphics card related | 17:48 |
holstein | i usually get a normal buntu live CD and get that running | 17:48 |
holstein | then, go from there as to upgrading or installing whatever version i want | 17:48 |
holstein | nvidia? | 17:49 |
holstein | can you get to TTY? | 17:49 |
holstein | do you see a grub menu? | 17:49 |
holstein | first easy thing would be to try the recovery console | 17:49 |
ssfdre38 | yea i have nvidia | 17:52 |
holstein | well, i could be wrong, but thats what i would assume the issue is | 17:52 |
holstein | i would run the recovery console | 17:52 |
holstein | i would also.. | 17:53 |
ssfdre38 | well i have ubuntu 10.04 LTS on my tower for now | 17:53 |
holstein | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia | 17:53 |
holstein | ssfdre38: ? | 17:53 |
holstein | you dont have a non-functioning 11.10 install then? | 17:53 |
ssfdre38 | right now not on my towner | 17:54 |
holstein | reinstalling the proprietary driver would likely have sorted it out | 17:54 |
holstein | you can do that in the terminal | 17:54 |
holstein | TTY | 17:54 |
holstein | im running 10.04 on my production machine... | 17:55 |
ssfdre38 | that is what i do first | 17:55 |
holstein | ssfdre38: well, its all hypothetical at this point | 17:55 |
holstein | if its wiped | 17:55 |
holstein | so... next time :) | 17:55 |
holstein | i would try a normal ubuntu LIVE cd before installing/upgrading next time | 17:55 |
