<0> yeah there was
<0> and the current 8xxx drivers now fully support these
<1> in failsafe mode, lspci -v shows an nVidia Corporation: Unknown device 0098 (reva1)
<1> are you serious? so it's the nv driver for my card that's the problem?
<2> spiderworm_work: what about chrooting that box, and installing the driver ?
<2> ssh'ing whatever
<1> ohgood: well i can get into failsafe mode, so i should be able to install the driver that way, no?
<2> i suppose, can't say for sure
<1> cant ssh, cant get network on it either ;)
<2> if you can get a login, you should be able to
<3> good ol' times
<2> spiderworm_work: one thing at a time. :)
<3> :D :D :D :D :D
<1> i can burn a disc on THIS computer with the nv driver source and then do a source install on the other computer, it appears
<4> switch2nv
<3> no
<4> why?
<3> switch2nvidia
<3> cauz the nv driver suxx
<4> but he said his card doesn't work.\
<3> at least on his machine
<3> with nv
<4> oh right!
<1> oh yeah, so if i just go with the proprietary nvidia drivers all should be well!
<3> *should*
<4> yeah. there is a command line version of yast2 i believe.
<3> but there's no guarantee of course
<1> right of course
<3> that mobile crap is always ... tricky to handle
<3> ^^
<3> oh goood idea
<3> ;)
<1> so.... suse typically handles nvidia driver installs via yast, which i cant get to....
<1> how would i go about installing commandline?
<1> download the nvidia installer?
<1> or is there a better way?
<2> spiderworm_work: one sec, let's see what the notes say. :)
<3> i've heard about nvidia driver rps 4 suse
<3> but never found em nor used em
<1> ohgood: where are these notes you keep referring to?
<3> best thing to do is: run yast -> install kernel development stuff
<3> get nvidia drivers
<3> extract them
<3> make install
<3> (if the nvidia installer fails)
<3> switch2nvidia
<1> GraVeDigg0r: im sorry, how do i run yast from the command line?
<3> and init 5 afterwards
<3> spiderworm_work: with "yast" ?
<3> -.-
<5> spiderworm_work, yast is ncurses
<3> the easiest way to go
<1> ncurses on the command line?
<4> yeah no problem there.
<4> It don't look pretty.
<4> But that isn't really the point right?
<3> Solaris444: i fact i thing the cli yast looks much more beautiful than its graphical counterpart
<1> GraVeDigg0r: heh this i gotta see
<3> *think
<1> well guys the laptop is in windows right now downloading a big file, i'll be back in here to bug you guys to let you know how it's going, if thats alright, in approx 40 mins :)
<5> gravedigg, but you must have some better sized console than 80x25 ;)
<5> it is pretty hard to use on that small one
<5> (and 10.1a4 had broken console so yast was unusable there :) )
<2> http://68.32.251.142/~oclv/misc/RELEASE-NOTES.en.html
<3> Richlv_: suse uses vesa framebuffer console per default - 1024x768 should be available on any today's laptop, 1280x1024 is what i use and this is fully sufficient
<3> Richlv_: but ur right
<3> Richlv_: anyways: graphical yast on a 640x480px display is also no fun!
<2> the nvidia section seems like it might be helpfull
<1> (this laptop screen goes up to 1920x1200) :D
<2> spiderworm_work: p4 or amd ?
<6> quoting documentation to solve a problem? You Infidel!
<1> ohgood: dual p4's :)
<2> frb-work: slap me, i'm bean naughty
<3> Richlv_: and btw: 10.1a4 is, as the name says, alpha - ur own fault if you use it (as a non-developer)
<2> spiderworm_work: mmm, on a laptop ? :\
<3> :D
<1> ohgood: yessir :) and a 80 gig scsi hd :)
<3> scsi in a laptop????
<2> spiderworm_work: so, you wheel a battery pack in a oxen cart ?
<3> oO
<2> :|
<3> ohgood: LOL :D
<1> ohgood: lol
<2> spiderworm_work: anyway, there are the docs, if you like. :)
<1> ohgood: actually the battery seems to last about 1 hour 45 mins
<1> ty ohgood
<2> np
<5> gravedigg, i know, but 10.0 failed to recognise ide _and_ sata devices in that box :)
<2> spiderworm_work: have you installed mac os on it yet ?
<3> Richlv_: k
<3> Richlv_: i have heard strange things about 10.1 not having any reiser4 support anymore
<5> so i left user with almost-alpha...
<1> ohgood: even better. im putting linux on it :)
<3> O M G !!!!!!
<2> spiderworm_work: agreed. the last of the note states something really positive, in your case ,about nvidida stuff. :)
<1> ohgood: http://68.32.251.142/~oclv/misc/RELEASE-NOTES.en.html#06 <-- thats the section youre specifically referring to, no?
<5> gravedigg, i didn't check, actually
<2> spiderworm_work: ya
<5> and it might be that alphas missed it
<1> sounds like i just need to comment out: Option "ShadowFB" .... to get nv driver to work....
<5> t had enough other problems :>
<1> i dont remember that option but i'll look for it fo sho this time
<5> funny enough, there have been no complaints from the user. the only thing that didn't work was directly attaching digital photocamera
<3> Richlv_: try entering gra and hitting tabulator key then
<5> gravedigg, entering where ?
<5> that is, what is this supposed to do/solve ? :)
<3> Richlv_: in the text field of your irc client
<5> (oh, you mean nick completion probably...)
<3> -.-
<3> exactly
<5> see, i proudly refuse to use nick completion if the nick is so obscure that yping it manually would be pain in hopes that people would stop choosing such nicks ;D
<3> -.-
<1> hey, cli yast IS pretty good!
<5> spiderworm_work, it is praised for remote management tasks by many :)
<3> Richlv_: okay, i you refuse to write my name exactly then this conversation is now over ...
<5> hh
<7> does anyone know if there is a way to terminate all user instances running on the machine? more or less like what would happen at a reboot. i want to terminate all x sessions, and all user instances - without rebooting.
<5> i imagine how funny and nice it would be if you would communicate with somebody w/o nick completion ;)
<8> killall
<8> or fuser
<6> benJIman: do you have the url to that one site with >3000 html errors?
<9> not offhand
<9> I have to go now
<5> weswh, if you care only about graphical - init 3
<5> should kill x and everything else run in that graphical sessions, but leaving all the network stuff etc running :)
<10> frb: you mean the validater said it was >3000 errors?
<10> thats like a world record or something
<6> it takes over a minute to validate
<6> Failed validation, 2857 errors
<11> heya
<10> damn, that is impressive...
<11> sPiN-: live itselft is sometimes ;)
<5> frb, oh, then they have improved ! ;)
<12> ROFL
<6> no, they've gotten worse
<6> [Mon Dec 26 2005] [11:38:16] <frb> Failed validation, 2053 errors
<10> so is the page like a mile long or something?
<10> i just dont see hwo one page could have sooo many errors
<10> i know they often cascade, but still
<12> thats crazy !
<12> That would take some hard work
<6> konq is having issues rendering the validator output page
<10> seriously, he must be striving for that many errors
