You can access the grub menu by pressing Esc (Grub legacy) or Shift (Grub2) during boot.

However, I can´t seem to find the SAMBA configuration und System Settings. Am I missing anything?

Any particluar models better then others? Are there any companies that sell laptops with kubuntu already installed, since I'm going to erase windows anyways? THANKS [07:06] wifioregon, not sure if there are vendors who install kubuntu on their machines, RedHat is I believe more common, however you could try to get a machine without an OS installed. Sometimes vendors do sell those, lowers cost because Windows doesn't need to be bought [07:07] wifioregon: depends on where you are located [07:07] wifioregon, I guess this will be usefull: http://www.linlap.com/ [07:07] Thanks lordievader: someone was just telling me that PC's without OS's are the same price. Is that true? [07:07] THanks!! [07:07] there is system76 for US/UK folk [07:08] Very helpful thanks [07:08] wifioregon, really? That is kind of strange... [07:08] lordievader: Just what someone said [07:08] Im going to do the research [07:08] Depends where you shop [07:08] Either way, the refund you can fight to get isnt all that much [07:09] For me personally it's more of a statement thing not to buy with Windows preinstalled [07:09] I don't really care, I use both anyways...

I couldn't get it installed and working properly because the pc has mobo probs [18:13] and continues to do so [18:13] I would like some help getting desktop effects working. I've been at this for months and I feel like I'm finally close. kubuntu 11.10, 2 nvidia quadro 295s, 3 monitors, proprietary nvidia driver. When I enabled destop effects it works great for 10 seconds then locks up for 30 then works great for 5 then locks up for 30 (repeat x~10) then KDE crashes and goes back to kdm login. [18:17] Ok. I just tried it again and it worked a bit differently than usual. Worked well for ~45 seconds. I clicked on the KDE application launcher it froze for 30 seconds and then kicked my back to kdm. [18:19] Combatjuan, I really don't understand exactly what the problem is, but why a proprietary driver ? I have to ask. [18:21] BluesKaj: I guess the simple answer is that it seems to work better than me with nouveau. I can't get any acceleration at all with nouveau. [18:22] I'm definitely open to it, but I have 3 monitors and 2 cards and in order to get a window manager to be usable, I need some form of Xinerama (or similar). But nouveau just flat out won't do HW acceleration + Xinerama near as I can tell. [18:25] Combatjuan, what about the additional drivers in kmenu>apps> system , choose the recommended nvidia driver [18:25] BluesKaj, hello [18:26] still my wallpaper bug is unresoled [18:26] hello sky100 ...sorry I'm out of ideas on that [18:26] BluesKaj: I didn't know about that menu. Interesting. So far I've tried nvidia-current, and then the official nvidia blobs (280, 290, and 295). I'm currently using the 295 as they seem the most stable. [18:27] nvidia-current is most likely a version of the 295 driver , Combatjuan [18:27] u wanted to see the Autostart screenshot last day .. if ya want to see the sanpshot I can readily post thro imagebin.. would u mind watching ? [18:27] if it's the recommended driver? [18:27] BluesKaj, [18:28] sky100, well, ok [18:28] in dont know why my cam dont dont work in firefox chat with flash any idea? [18:28] just to check if ya can get some ideas...just a chance ... [18:28] ok ty [18:29] just a min BluesKaj [18:30] BluesKaj: I think that it was 283 (or 273)? I used that dialog to try the one it callse post-release updates (current-updates). So I guess I'll restart and see if that works. [18:30] Combatjuan, ok , hope it eorks for you [18:30] works [18:31] http://imagebin.org/206036 <<< BluesKaj pls check the snapshot [18:31] According to apt-cache, nvidia-current -> 280.13-0ubuntu6 and nvidia-current-updates-> 280.13-0ubuntu5 [18:32] Su I guess nvidia-current > nvidia-current-updates? Maybe? That's not intuitive to me. Either was, those are relatively old but theoretically stable drivers. Meh. Here goes. [18:33] sky100, it's odd that you have no desktop entries under "Desktop File" [18:34] sorry didnt get u BluesKaj [18:34] what normalcy is abest ! [18:35] absent* [18:35] i dragged the icons on the desktop from Kmenu for my easy operation [18:36] #CafeChat [18:36] sorry [18:36] mistake [18:36] sky100, like this , http://imagebin.org/206039 [18:37] ok [18:37] No luck. The 280.13 (official nvidia-current package drivers) behave the same with desktop effects on, but seem choppier than the nvidia 295 drivers. [18:37] s/behave/misbehave [18:38] so do u think that if i had an set up like that I would be able to seave wallapers even after reboot ? [18:38] BluesKaj, ? [18:38] save* [18:39] Combatjuan, open a terminal , sudo nvidia-xconfig [18:40] sky100, not sure , but it might work . However I'm on 12.04 so the Desktop entry option may not be active in 11.10. I can't recall if it is. [18:41] BluesKaj: http://paste.kde.org/449354/ I pasted in the nvidia-xconfig one and also the one that I tweaked (added Mosaic) which seems to work a bit better. [18:41] how to undo changes in auto start , BluesKaj [18:41] BluesKaj: You're a one-person army today. [18:42] i mistably removed the setting it was just came up [18:42] pls seuggets [18:42] mistakably* [18:43] it just came up in Auto start [18:43] i want to get back to previous state [18:44] Combatjuan, my problem with xorg.conf and multiple monitors is not much experience :( [18:44] which command to undo changes ? [18:44] sky100, what came up in autostart ? [18:45] I know about nvidia drivers etc , but usage on multiple monitors is beyond my scope , Combatjuan [18:46] BluesKaj: I can get it working great with a single card powering one monitor, but I just can't get it working with 2 cards and > 2 monitors. I guess there are some inherent problems in communicating the state of pixel buffers across cards. [18:46] BluesKaj: No problem. Thanks for your attempt. [18:46] I have gnash installed and I'm usng firefox as my browser, and I'm sure that I've installed adobe, but every time I got to watch a video I get an install flash player sign... any ways of trouble shooting in terminal? [18:47] Combatjuan, can you get 2 monitors on one card working ? [18:48] BluesKaj: Yes, if I use nvidia twinview. I don't think I have tried doing that with nouveau. But lack of a third monitor is probably a deal breaker for me. [18:48] http://imagebin.org/206036 <, that command [18:49] nouveau can't handle that, Combatjuan , I'm quite sure [18:49] just see it & watch out the lines under SCRIPT FILE [18:49] by mistake i removed it [18:49] BluesKaj: Ok. I just headed over to #nouveau to ask. But I was reading through their web page first. So you just saved me some time. Thanks. [18:49] now how to undo it [18:52] sky100, I don't see anything diffrent [18:53] gtk-default theme ,,,<< i removed it by nistake [18:54] brad__, http://www.ubuntuupdates.org/adobe-flashplugin , download the plugin extract it and copy the libflashplayer.so to /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins with root premissions .
