Arpad2is it possible to use a gamepad in xubuntu 13.04?10:41
TheSheepsure10:49
Arpad2I've just got one. unfortunately it is wireless, and I couldn't figure out how does it work.10:54

Arpad2it has its own usb adaptor10:56
TheSheepah, then it's just a normal usb gamepad10:56
Arpad2how should I "programme" it10:57
TheSheepno idea what you mean10:58
TheSheepif a game supports a gamepad, it should let you set the controls -- in the game10:58

Arpad2should lsmod show a 'gamepad' module?11:00
Arpad2according to this article it should, but at my  place its not listed http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-set-up-a-gameportgamepad-or-joystick-in-ubuntu.html11:02

xylopyrographyI have a problem13:34
xylopyrographyI just installed xubuntu on flash drive and I set the priority of booting for the flash after that a menu of four  options showed up says13:36
xylopyrography1- try 2- install 3....4... and I selected install then nothing just a black screen so any help please ??13:37
xylopyrographytest!!  anybody here ??13:39
baizonhi, yes13:39
TheSheepxylopyrography: you might need to try some of the kernel boot options to make it run on your hardware13:39
TheSheep!boot | xylopyrography13:39
ubottuxylopyrography: Boot options: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions - To add/remove startup services, you can use the package 'bum', or update-rc.d - To add your own startup scripts, use /etc/rc.local - See also !grub and !dualboot - Making a boot floppy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto/BootFloppy - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SmartBootManagerHowto13:39

baizonxylopyrography: chose the try option if it boots13:39
baizonthere you will have a install icon13:39
baizonuse it :)13:39
xylopyrographyhang on I will try your suggestions  thx all13:40
xylopyrographyI tried the TRY option it is the same case .13:48
TheSheepyou may try searching the forums or google for you particular computer model to see if someone figured out what boot options you need exactly13:49
TheSheepotherwise you need to experiment13:49
xylopyrographyI did but still no results mine is asus x201e with celron and  shipped  with ms-dos13:51
nantouxubuntu 13.04 64 bits, google earth from the repo, I cannot use the "fly to" (the bar to find cities or places) option. All it says is "invalid http request" this has been bothering me for the last 2 days. Any ideas?13:51
TheSheepnantou: I suppose you need to ask the google support13:51
xylopyrographyby the way the 4 options menu says enter c for command then a page similar to terminal with                                     grub> (at the left margin)13:53
xylopyrographyI entered tab and showed me the possible commands to  be written13:55
TheSheepthat's the boot manager13:55
TheSheep!grub13:55
ubottuGRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub213:55
xylopyrographycan fix my problem with it or figure it out13:55
TheSheepyour problem is that the kernel fails to boot for some reason, most likely it has problems with some of your hardware13:56
TheSheeplike non-standard bios or something13:56
TheSheepit can usually be worked around by providing additional boot options to the kernel, so that it knows what to expect13:57
xylopyrographyno the bios is  American Megatrends Inc BIOS13:57
xylopyrographyI thought the problem belongs to the "fat16 or 32 or ntfs "stuff ??13:58
xylopyrographybecause these things I don't know anything about them13:58

prsteeleHello everyone; just installed Xubuntu Raring, and everything looks great. However, when I install NVidia drivers, the desktop looks horrible -- icons and styles are all missing. Anyone have an idea how to solve this?21:05
tomatopotatoprsteele: try alternative drivers21:08
prsteeletomatopotato: The nouveau drivers seem to be fine21:09
tomatopotatobut?21:10
prsteeletomatopotato: but I was hoping to use wine for games, and in the past that's required Nvidia drivers21:10
prsteeletomatopotato: (on other machines)21:10
tomatopotatoyou should try it21:10
tomatopotatomight just work21:10
prsteeletomatopotato: maybe, but even then there's pretty bad screen tearing when I scroll on nouveau, but not nvidia21:11
tomatopotato?21:11
tomatopotatoso which driver gives trouble?21:11
tomatopotatonouveau or nvidia?21:12
prsteeletomatopotato: nouveau looks good, except tearing; nvidia loses icons and such, but doesn't tear21:12
tomatopotatothere was somebody who helped me last time with a similar issue once, but thats quiet long time ago21:13
tomatopotatoit was something about a boot prefix21:13
prsteeletomatopotato: hm. I know a solution exists, I'm using a slightly older version of Xubuntu and Nvidia drivers on the computer next to me, and its fine21:13
tomatopotatosomething like pci=0 or such21:13
tomatopotatoTheSheep:  helped me i think, i cant remeber21:14
tomatopotatoprsteele:21:16
tomatopotatoprsteele: did you delete the neveau drivers before installing the nvidia?21:17
prsteeletomatopotato: no21:17
tomatopotatoyou must do that first, delete all traces of that driver first and then install the nvidia21:17
tomatopotatoor vice versa21:17
prsteeletomatopotato: alright, I'll try that (will need to reboot...). Thanks!21:18
tomatopotatonp, that was what solved it for me21:18
tomatopotatoas i can recall21:18
tomatopotatocouse they are troubeling each other21:18
prsteeletomatopotato: hm, that didn't seem to do it21:26
tomatopotatodid you try either or21:26
prsteeletomatopotato: I purged nouveau, purged nvidia, installed nvidia, rebooted21:27
prsteeletomatopotato: and now all the icons and styles are messed up again21:27
tomatopotatowhat give you xorg log?21:27
prsteeletomatopotato: where?21:28
tomatopotatoin here /var/log/Xorg.0.log21:29
prsteeletomatopotato: /var/log/Xorg.0.log ?21:29
prsteeletomatopotato: anything I"m looking for? Its 751 lines long21:29
tomatopotatoput it up on pastebin, or such, usually you are looking for something like (EE)21:30
prsteelehttp://pastebin.com/5Ce7wDXx21:31
tomatopotatobetter post your dmesg to21:33
prsteelehttp://pastebin.com/MMjdmXhp21:34
tomatopotatowell im out of ideas, i cant remeber what it was, but you can stick around and keep those Xorg log and dmesg links and ask others in here, im sure somebody will be able to help, you need just a bit of patience21:36
prsteeletomatopotato: thanks!21:36
prsteeletomatopotato: I might just try rolling back xfce versions to see what happens...21:36
tomatopotatothe logs will help others to troubleshoot21:36
