| SzArAk | guys, will lowlatency kernel in 12.10 work with fgrlx proprietary driver for ATI cards? | 20:15 |
| SzArAk | I remember I switched to opensource drivers becouse i couldn't run X on fgrlx. Is it possible currently? | 20:16 |
| Xzu | hi there. Big issue, using ubuntu 12.04 and xfce4(kx-studio). After add a folder link to the shortcut toolbar, no more bar was runing (all crashed). So I did sudo reboot. Now I can't login, after the password, black screen and then come back to login | 20:16 |
| SzArAk | can you change graphical environment while logging in and see if it's the same there? See if you have any options in drop-down menu. | 20:18 |
| Xzu | SzArAk, no, only xfce4 | 20:19 |
| Xzu | I can loggin as a guess! | 20:19 |
| zequence | SzArAk: As falktx said on another channel, -lowlatency is the same as -generic, but with a slightly different config. Anything that works on -generic will work on -lowlatency | 20:23 |
| zequence | I've noticed that when you install drivers, DMKS says, only building a module for this kernel | 20:23 |
| zequence | That means, make sure you are on -lowlatency when installing the driver | 20:24 |
| zequence | Also, fglrx was not usable on 12.10 before, since it didn't support the xorg version | 20:24 |
| zequence | I heard it's ok now | 20:24 |
| SzArAk | thanks for detailed info. | 20:25 |
| zequence | Xzu: Something is messed up in your user settings | 20:25 |
| zequence | Xzu: I can't tell you from the top of my head what to reset, but it's enough to delete some settings in your user directory in order to make this problem go away | 20:26 |
| Unit193 | Are you thinking about ~/.config ? | 20:26 |
| Xzu | good question | 20:26 |
| zequence | Xzu: One simple way to solve it is to backup anything important in the home dir, and then just delete everything. That will reset all your user settings | 20:27 |
| Xzu | zequence, ...hmm.. | 20:27 |
| Xzu | a little barbar!! | 20:27 |
| Xzu | thx I'll try! ;) | 20:31 |
| Unit193 | zequence: .config and .cache are two good ones to check, .cache holds sessions. | 20:34 |
| zequence | Unit193: That sounds very plausible to me. Especially .cache. I don't really know XFCE that much, and don't know what it uses | 20:38 |
| Unit193 | I just read up, sounds more like .ICEauthority and .Xauthority, which Grid recommended in #xubuntu (Just info for later, not implying anything. :P ) | 20:39 |
| SzArAk | zequence: bah, not worth it... there are bugs that unables me to run fglrx with my hybrid graphics. Found a PPA of a guy who made his own xorg intel package that fixed it, but it occured discrete graphic whas much slower than integrated on opensource drivers | 21:51 |
| SzArAk | to much hassle and negative results.. i miss nvidia cards ;( | 21:51 |
| zequence | SzArAk: 12.04 should work smoothly. I don't know how much free AMD drivers affect low latency, if that is a concern | 21:59 |
| zequence | For me, free nvidia drivers are unusable at low latencies | 21:59 |
| zequence | But, for len-1304 they are not | 21:59 |
| faLUCE | hi, after a power failure and reboot, I can't see windows decorations anymore and I see a "x" instead of the mouse pointer... what can I do? The windows manager is quite unusable now | 22:13 |
| zequence | faLUCE: that sounds like some sort of X window safe graphics mode | 22:17 |
| zequence | I can't advice you on that, sorry. I'm thinking though, that if it's not a graphic card failure (try a live OS), it might be what another user had here earlier, corrupted user files (try as another user). | 22:19 |
| zequence | If it's corrupted user files, you might need to delete something | 22:19 |
| zequence | ~/.cache was suggested, and might be a good place to begin | 22:19 |
| faLUCE | help! How can I restore windows decorations? something has messed up after a pov | 22:35 |
| faLUCE | after a power failure and reboot, I can't see windows decorations anymore and I see a "x" instead of the mouse pointer... what can I do? The windows manager is quite unusable now | 22:35 |
| faLUCE | [Monday 18 February 2013] [23:16:53] |Entra| studio-user262 รจ entrato nel canale (d03626b9@gateway/web/freenode/ip.208.54.38.185). | 22:35 |
| zequence | faLUCE: Hi, I responded to you earlier. Did you loose connection? | 22:37 |
| zequence | faLUCE: To make sure it's not a graphic card failure, try another OS. Perhaps a live OS. | 22:37 |
| zequence | faLUCE: To make sure it's not a user setting problem, try using a different user, like Guest | 22:38 |
| faLUCE | zequence: well, just solved with xfwm4 command. what a weird bug, anyway | 22:41 |
