[07:09] Kingdroid: so kubuntu-desktop didn't work? [07:09] oh, and language.... [07:11] sorry [07:11] nope [07:11] it jsut told me kubuntu was up to dat [07:11] date* [07:12] hmmm [07:12] i triedsudo mv /etc/x11/xorg.conf /etc/x11/xorg.conf.old [07:12] cuz a friiend suggested it [07:12] but that just flat out didnt work [07:12] i tried to boot in recovery mode [07:12] and then go tom failsafex [07:12] so did you try burning a kub. ISO and check out the live session? [07:12] but, after i chose it my screen went blank [07:12] no, that was my next option, tbh [07:13] but i wnated to have one last go [07:13] !xorg [07:13] The 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 !xorgconf [07:13] before just redoing the whole deal [07:13] !xorgconf [07:13] The /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] there are some links to start with, at least [07:14] ty ill look into them [07:15] do you think its because i have dual monitors maybe? [07:16] kscreen usually handles that no problemo [07:17] Kingdroid: I don't recall -- are you doing 13.10? [07:17] or trying to do LTS [07:17] ye [07:17] wait [07:17] no [07:18] i installed 12.04 from usb originally [07:18] so ye lts [07:18] :( [07:18] is that bad? :( [07:18] in general, that's great for businesses, and non-tech people who never want to update [07:18] oh [07:18] for everyone else, up-to-date is the best [07:18] im just gonna redo the whole thing [07:19] I mean, we're in beta for the next LTS right now [07:19] if you want kubuntu, just burn the iso for kubuntu [07:19] ye [07:19] and don't mess with ubuntu + KDE [07:19] tbh, im getting kubuntu because my friend who knows this stuff pretty well suggested it [07:20] so, if i do the kubuntu onto a USB it will overwrite my current install [07:20] or do i need to uninstall [07:22] yes, you can only put one ISO per thumb drive [07:23] well, you can only *burn* one [07:23] the install is on your hard drive, and you can over-write, or install in the free space [07:23] whatever you desire [07:23] cool [07:23] !iso [07:23] To mount an ISO disc image, type « sudo mount -o loop » - 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. [07:24] just wanted to make sure i didnt have to uninstall the current ubuntu on my hdd [07:24] or if i could jsut overwrite with kubuntu [07:24] oh, you don't want to mount it [07:24] sorry [07:24] wrong factoid [07:24] its fine, im on widnows 7 atm [07:24] so im just using a tool for it [07:24] same tool i used for the ubuntu install [07:24] ok, but I've never known windows to do a good burn [07:25] please do the md5 verification [07:25] !md5 [07:25] To 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_Windows [07:25] second link [07:26] kk [07:27] what will this do? [07:27] what will what do? [07:28] checking the md5sum? [07:28] yes [07:28] it verifies that what you downloaded is a complete, accurate file [07:29] it is annoying to take the time to burn an ISO and then have it not work [07:35] oh ok === boudewijn is now known as bas70 [07:36] how do i change where the prompt location is [07:36] for example it needs to be in docs and setting [07:37] but mine is in users\user [07:37] gosh, I have no clue [07:37] I haven't used windows for a decade [07:46] Kingdroid: cd works in Powershell and, I think, in cmd.
