| dajxd | any precedence for the installer instacrashing on macbooks? i can only get as far as the install button, even with the slideshow removed. | 13:55 |
|---|---|---|
| smartboyhw_ | dajxd, wait you are installing Ubuntu Stu on a MacBook? | 13:56 |
| smartboyhw_ | s/Stu/Studio | 13:56 |
| dajxd | trying to, yeah | 13:56 |
| smartboyhw_ | that isn't supported you know | 13:56 |
| === smartboyhw_ is now known as smartboyhw | ||
| smartboyhw | dajxd, we don't provide amd64+mac disks | 13:56 |
| dajxd | for good reason, i guess- i got it working a few versions ago i thought. thanks anyway! | 13:56 |
| dajxd | would i have any luck just apt-getting all of the ubuntu studio packages from ubuntu? | 14:00 |
| dajxd | (of course not expecting support or documentation from there on out) | 14:00 |
| smartboyhw | dajxd, well yes:D | 14:01 |
| smartboyhw | dajxd, sudo apt-get install ubuntustudio-* | 14:01 |
| smartboyhw | That might work | 14:01 |
| dajxd | well i'll give that a shot! thank you. | 14:01 |
| pacobecu | problem with nvidia geforce 8400m gt gpu in ubuntu studio12.....how can i resolve it???? | 16:12 |
| zequence | pacobecu: What sort of problem? | 16:14 |
| pacobecu | sorry...i dont speak english very well....the problem is that dont recognize the driver and the resolution is very low | 16:16 |
| zequence | pacobecu: Did you install the nvidia proprietary driver? | 16:21 |
| zequence | In the command line: sudo apt-get install nvidia-current | 16:21 |
| pacobecu | i need the all the specific command... please...i am new user of linux...i dont know how to do it...thank you | 16:22 |
| zequence | pacobecu: Commands for what? | 16:23 |
| pacobecu | for the terminal... i tried that "sudo apt-get install nvidia-current" and when reboot the system doesnt work....one time yes and the next time not | 16:24 |
| zequence | pacobecu: That is what installs the nvidia drivers | 16:29 |
| zequence | pacobecu: Did you add another kernel since then? | 16:29 |
| zequence | pacobecu: How do you know the drivers are not working? | 16:29 |
| pacobecu | You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver. Please edit your X configuration file (just run `nvidia-xconfig` as root), and restart the X server. | 16:30 |
| pacobecu | this is the message that appears | 16:30 |
| pacobecu | i have just complete the installation and this is the problem | 16:31 |
| zequence | pacobecu: Ok. don't run nvidia-xconfig. And, erase the xorg.conf file, if it exists. In /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 16:32 |
| pacobecu | step by step please...i have not idea | 16:34 |
| zequence | pacobecu: Delete /etc/X11/xorg.conf, if it exists | 16:35 |
| pacobecu | ok... | 16:35 |
| zequence | In a terminal: sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 16:35 |
| pacobecu | ok...it doesnt exist.. | 16:37 |
| zequence | pacobecu: To make sure it's installed, do: sudo apt-get install nvidia-current | 16:41 |
| zequence | Then reboot | 16:41 |
| pacobecu | just did it | 16:41 |
| pacobecu | the drivers are installed | 16:41 |
| zequence | pacobecu: What kernel are you running? | 16:42 |
| zequence | pacobecu: uname -r | 16:42 |
| pacobecu | i just try ubuntu studio 12...i download in his web and just tried to install | 16:43 |
| pacobecu | 3.5.0-17-lowlatency | 16:43 |
| zequence | pacobecu: Ok, good | 16:44 |
| zequence | pacobecu: Did you reboot? | 16:44 |
| pacobecu | no...ill reboot | 16:44 |
| pacobecu | zequence...i rebooted the system and all is the same... | 16:49 |
| zequence | pacobecu: I have no idea why it is not working out for you. Ubuntu Studio is no different from any other Ubuntu in this regard | 16:50 |
| zequence | The kernel is the same as linux-generic | 16:50 |
| zequence | So, full support for the nvidia drivers | 16:50 |
| pacobecu | thank very much anyway...bye | 16:51 |
| zequence | pacobecu: Wait | 16:52 |
| pacobecu | ok | 16:52 |
| zequence | pacobecu: Perhaps your device is too old for that driver | 16:52 |
| zequence | pacobecu: Try installing: sudo apt-get install nvidia-173 | 16:53 |
| zequence | Supports nvidia, series 5-9 | 16:54 |
| pacobecu | ok...but first how can i remove the current drivers | 16:54 |
| zequence | pacobecu: It will be automatically removed | 16:55 |
| pacobecu | ok...ill try..wait | 16:55 |
| zequence | pacobecu: It's worth a try. If it doesn't work, you may ask on any Ubuntu channel, or forum about this, as it's the same for all Ubuntu flavord | 16:55 |
| zequence | flavors* | 16:56 |
| pacobecu | thank you | 16:56 |
