<0> hi all, I'm going to be giving a presentation using a projector. If I can get twinview working with a CRT and my laptop, will the same configuration work for the projector? is there aything I should be aware of that's projector specific?
<0> what would I use for HorizSync and VertRefresh for a projector? o.O
<1> the drivers try to autodetect it these days
<1> by default the HorzSync/VertRefresh options are ignored
<0> so I should remove the lines from monitor section and hope for the best?
<1> yeah, or you could put in some standard ranges
<1> basicly those values are only used to get an indication of the capabilities of a monitor
<1> to see if some modelines are supported
<0> so are the modelines also optional?
<1> X contains a list of standard modelines
<1> for standard resolutions like 800x600, 1024x768 ..
<0> ok. so I don't need to put them in the xorg.conf then, right?
<1> correct
<0> cool. one less thing to worry about.
<2> Is there any way to access the temp sensors on a card under Linux?
<3> yes



<2> How?
<2> Theres no /proc interface
<3> nvidia-settings, nvclock, gkrellm, countless other programs i'm sure
<3> i think by using the NV-CONTROL interface, but i'm not sure
<2> Nothing in nvidia-settings about temp sensors
<3> then your card probably doesn't have a sensor
<2> A 6600
<3> nvidia-settings has a "Thermal Monitor" section here
<2> Not here
<2> What version are you using?
<2> v1.0 here
<3> nvidia-settings: version 1.0 (randy@juliet2) Fri Jun 2 23:31:57 PDT 2006
<3> as i say, your card may not have a temperature monitoring chip on it
<2> Driver version?
<3> or it may use some proprietary interface
<2> 1.0-7174
<3> (in which case nVidia won't know about it anyway)
<2> The temp sensors not built into the chip?
<3> i think i got a temperature in that version too
<3> solemnwarning: not on your card..
<4> hello, I receive a kernel panic upon rebooting after installing the "nvidia" driver on Ubuntu; I suspect libglx, and the problem disappears if I revert to the "nv" driver - can anybody offer any insight? The problem is described in more detail here: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1319914#post1319914
<2> dibblego: Dont use a ****ty distro?
<4> solemnwarning, that's one way
<4> solemnwarning, lemme guess, gentoo?
<2> Try again :P
<4> OpenBSD?
<2> Since when is EvilOS a Linux distro?
<2> Here, I'll give you a hint
<2> http://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/3.1_r2/i386/iso-cd/debian-31r2-i386-netinst.iso
<4> that was my next guess!
<4> I swear it was
<5> I was here a little while ago asking questions about xorg.conf and projectors. Thunderbird helped me out a little, and I just wanted to say thanks, i think I got it working.
<5> but he's not here. :(
<5> I think it was Thunderbird.
<5> anyways, thanks to everyone that helps on a daily basis. This stuff isn't fun. ;)

<6> when i try to chat in #ubuntu i just get it saying i havent joined the channel
<8> hi Albatorsk
<9> PixieDust: Hi
<6> y cant i chat in #ubuntu?
<6> sorry, new to irc
<9> neilc_: I don't know. I have no problem joining #ubuntu
<6> weird i do /join #ubuntu and nothing happens
<9> That's because you're already in ubuntu
<9> That's because you're already in #ubuntu
<8> Albatorsk, do you have a cell phone?
<9> neilc_: Ok, not anymore. You just left.
<9> PixieDust: Yes
<8> Albatorsk, what model/brand?
<9> PixieDust: A Motorola A925 and a SE K750
<8> service?
<9> PixieDust: Telia and Telenor
<8> what country is that? heh
<9> Sweden
<8> Albatorsk, i see, no wonder your common sense seems high
<9> Indeed ;)



<8> americans have much lower common sense it seems
<9> Well, I tend not to judge people en m***e ;)
<9> Sorry, I have a dumb sense of humor.
<8> hehe
<8> http://www.motorola.com/motoinfo/product/details.jsp?globalObjectId=119
<8> that's my phone
<8> prepaid cingular, quite pathetic
<9> Ah, I just got one of those for my mom.
<8> same model?
<9> Exactly.
<8> Albatorsk, what'd you think of it?
<9> PixieDust: I thought it was perfect. No extra features she'd never use anyway.
<8> Albatorsk, how do i change my background? ;)
<9> Well, I only spent about 10 minutes with it after I got home, to show her how to answer the phone and make calls. She changed the background all by her self, but I wasn't paying attention so I don't know :P
<8> damn
<8> couldn't ask her?
<8> Albatorsk, isn't the phone tiny?
<8> hehe
<9> Yes, it's very small. That's one of the reasons I picked that model.
<9> PixieDust: Press the menu button, select More and then you'll find Wallpaper
<9> Did you get that last thing I wrote?
<10> Albatorsk, the battery life is ridiculous
<10> Albatorsk, nope, only that you picked the model cause it was tiny
<9> Oh? My mom charges it about once a week. More than enough if you ask me.
<9> PixieDust: Press the menu button, select More and then you'll find Wallpaper
<10> yeah, lol thats what i mean
<10> the battery lasts a long time
<9> Ah, I read it the other way around ;)
<10> sad
<10> the best wallpaper is the default
<9> Upload a new one
<10> how?
<9> I'll check the handbook once again ;)
<10> lol
<9> Ok. Did you get a data cable with it?
<10> nope :(
<9> Ok, and since it doesn't have IR or BT, you're out of luck :P
<10> oh
<10> Albatorsk, the display is uncharacteristic of phone's this small, being 65K color
<9> Yep
<11> hi
<11> anyone know when xorg 7.1 compatible nvidia drivers will be released ?
<11> no?
<9> Nope
<11> ok. thanks
<12> i need help installing drivers on dapper
<12> it wont work
<12> when i try to load xorg it says that there is no module "nvidia" or "glx"
<12> someone pls
<2> http://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/3.1_r2/i386/iso-cd/debian-31r2-i386-netinst.iso :)
<1> let him better use the kanotix (debian/ubuntu) script: http://kanotix.com/files/install-nvidia-debian.sh
<1> wget that script and then run it
<1> I think it should work fine
<1> (***uming you have the kernel-headers installed)
<12> Thunderbird: does it compile the latest drivers and install them
<12> Thunderbird: i have installed nvidia drivers numerous times in other dists and never had the slightest problem
<12> Thunderbird: but this is the first on ubuntu
<2> n00buntu ****s
<1> if you know how to use linux it doesn't matter which distribution you use ;)
<12> Thunderbird: seems really good to me.. almost everything works out of the box so far (except this)
<1> use that script it should work
<1> but make sure that you have the linux kernel headers installed
<2> That message made my n00b alarm start beeping :|
<12> ok but what does it do
<1> back to coding :)
<1> it downloads + installs the nvidia drivers
<1> it does everything
<12> downloads the binary drivers
<12> binary drivers that is
<12> what if i have a different kernel
<1> it compiles them aswell; that's why I said that you need to have the kernel-headers installed
<12> ok thanks ill try them out then ..
<12> be back in a short while if i fail.. thanks again
