Kingdroidit jsut told me kubuntu was up to dat07:11
Kingdroiddate*07:11
valoriehmmm07:12
Kingdroidi triedsudo mv /etc/x11/xorg.conf /etc/x11/xorg.conf.old07:12
Kingdroidcuz a friiend suggested it07:12
Kingdroidbut that just flat out didnt work07:12
Kingdroidi tried to boot in recovery mode07:12
Kingdroidand then go tom failsafex07:12
valorieso did you try burning a kub. ISO and check out the live session?07:12
Kingdroidbut, after i chose it my screen went blank07:12
Kingdroidno, that was my next option, tbh07:12
Kingdroidbut i wnated to have one last go07:13
valorie!xorg07:13
ubottuThe X Window system is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart X, type 'sudo /etc/init.d/lightdm' on an ubuntu system. replace with kdm on Kubuntu. To fix screen resolution or other X problems: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution . Also see !xorgconf07:13
Kingdroidbefore just redoing the whole deal07:13
valorie!xorgconf07:13
ubottuThe /etc/X11/xorg.conf file is deprecated, but sometimes may still be needed to pass values to specific drivers. Generic xorg.conf generation: http://ubottu.com/y/xorgconf - ATI/AMD ( fglrx driver ) specific: http://ubottu.com/y/atiamd - NVidia ( nvidia driver )specific: http://ubottu.com/y/nvidia man xorg.conf for file structure and syntax.07:13
valoriethere are some links to start with, at least07:13
Kingdroidty ill look into them07:14
Kingdroiddo you think its because i have dual monitors maybe?07:15
valoriekscreen usually handles that no problemo07:16
valorieKingdroid: I don't recall -- are you doing 13.10?07:17
valorieor trying to do LTS07:17
Kingdroidye07:17
Kingdroidwait07:17
Kingdroidno07:17
Kingdroidi installed 12.04 from usb originally07:18
Kingdroidso ye lts07:18
valorie:(07:18
Kingdroidis that bad? :(07:18
valoriein general, that's great for businesses, and non-tech people who never want to update07:18
Kingdroidoh07:18
valoriefor everyone else, up-to-date is the best07:18
Kingdroidim just gonna redo the whole thing07:18
valorieI mean, we're in beta for the next LTS right now07:19
valorieif you want kubuntu, just burn the iso for kubuntu07:19
Kingdroidye07:19
valorieand don't mess with ubuntu + KDE07:19
Kingdroidtbh, im getting kubuntu because my friend who knows this stuff pretty well suggested it07:19
Kingdroidso, if i do the kubuntu onto a USB it will overwrite my current install07:20
Kingdroidor do i need to uninstall07:20
valorieyes, you can only put one ISO per thumb drive07:22
valoriewell, you can only *burn* one07:23
valoriethe install is on your hard drive, and you can over-write, or install in the free space07:23
valoriewhatever you desire07:23
Kingdroidcool07:23
valorie!iso07:23
ubottuTo mount an ISO disc image, type « sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint> » - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning.07:23
Kingdroidjust wanted to make sure i didnt have to uninstall the current ubuntu on my hdd07:24
Kingdroidor if i could jsut overwrite with kubuntu07:24
valorieoh, you don't want to mount it07:24
valoriesorry07:24
valoriewrong factoid07:24
Kingdroidits fine, im on widnows 7 atm07:24
Kingdroidso im just using a tool for it07:24
Kingdroidsame tool i used for the ubuntu install07:24
valorieok, but I've never known windows to do a good burn07:24
valorieplease do the md5 verification07:25
valorie!md507:25
ubottuTo verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows07:25
valoriesecond link07:25
Kingdroidkk07:26
Kingdroidwhat will this do?07:27
valoriewhat will what do?07:27
valoriechecking the md5sum?07:28
Kingdroidyes07:28
valorieit verifies that what you downloaded is a complete, accurate file07:28
valorieit is annoying to take the time to burn an ISO and then have it not work07:29
