<0> Desh: if you are tyring to change an old symlink to a new one, do it as two separate commands
<1> ok thx
<2> I know guys, but I know all of this. I think the problem is that the file just won't run with --uninstall
<0> Desh: sudo rm foo; sudo ln -s /source/file /destination/file
<3> Tobberoth, understand that sudo will bring you to root's home, and there's no NVIDIA-foo.run there.
<4> Samus_Aran: No I want to remove that symlink since it won;t let me remove fglrx
<5> my X just restarts itseld sometimes pls help
<6> Tobberoth: That doesn't sound like the problem (why would it say "file not found"?)
<7> ln -s == symbolic link == awesome!
<8> anyone know what this error means? "OpenGL GLX extension not supported by display ':0.0'"
<6> tomorrowlab: You need a 3D graphics card driver
<6> !ati
<9> rumour has it, ati is http://doc.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/hardware.html#installatidriver or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI ... the radeon 9200 and below are supported by the open-source drivers
<6> !nvidia
<9> nvidia is, like, totally, Help about installing the nVidia drivers on Ubuntu can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
<2> now it says "Permission denied"



<2> even if I'm root
<10> wolki, thanks alot mate
<0> Tobberoth: sudo sh NVID*
<8> I have a 3d graphics card driver
<6> Tobberoth: OK that is fine. Run "chmod u+x NVI........"
<11> is there a code that will update ubuntu?
<6> matthew: "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade"
<2> I tried that sh NV* and it worked! the driver should be uninstalled now
<12> matthew: ubotu should have sent you the info in a private message
<2> SHould i redownload nvidia-xgl?
<13> umm
<13> i still cant get my sound to work
<8> does noone know what my problem is?
<0> Tobberoth: the problem was that you hadn't made the file "executable", so it could not be run "permission denied"
<6> Tobberoth: I find that it is best to copletely start from scratch after getting a mixed install like that, so now you have no ".run" file installed I would remove any nvidia packages and reinstall them all
<2> Samus_Aran: Ah.. I didn't know there were such things.. I'm VERY new to this as you've noticed. :)
<0> tomorrowlab: it means that you are using a non-accellerated Xorg driver right now, but the app you are using wants OpenGL accellerated support
<2> Okey Warbo, I'll try that
<13> umm
<13> allo
<8> I installed the nvidia-glx driver
<2> I must say though, Linux is AMAZING for fixing screwups
<6> tomorrowlab: Are you using it?
<8> how do I do that?
<11> cwarbo that code doesnt work in terminal
<11> warbo it doesnt work
<6> tomorrowlab: "cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | grep nv"
<6> matthew: what happens?
<8> nada
<6> tomorrowlab: OK, add a "idia" to the end (to get "grep nvidia")
<14> grep nv /etc/X11/xorg.conf would have been nicer :)
<4> Can anyone help me uninstall the fglrx driver?
<13> can someone please help me out
<8> still nada
<12> matthew: did ubotu send you the private message?
<11> warbo it says sudo: unable to lookup ubuntu via gethostbyname()
<8> oh wait, found my problem
<8> nm
<6> Aapzak: Yes, well I still do "cat file.txt | less" loads, because that's what I learned :)
<14> grep Driver /etc/X11/xorg.conf
<15> vic: http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Category:770X
<11> jason: i didnt get a message
<12> ubotu: tell matthew about upgrade
<12> matthew: now?
<14> :)
<13> allo
<13> ok fine
<6> matthew: That is a problem becoming super user. That is pretty serious
<13> forget the guy with the sound problems
<11> warbo why is it serious?

<14> I've got wifi trouble, network manager seems buggy to me
<11> warbo it wont let me run update manager
<17> @google amsn
<16> Sorry, I like to sing publicly
<6> matthew: Well it isn't serious. If you don't want to mount drives, start network connections, install software, etc. :)



<11> i click nothing happens
<12> matthew: your sudo problem does need to be resolved, paste the first line of /etc/hosts and /etc/hostname
<18> Aapzak, NetworkManager is buggy to everyone
<2> I'm giving up. This is just not working. I do nvidia-xconfig, press ctrl+alt+backspace
<2> and I get out to terminal, and gdm won't run
<14> TheHollow: I didn't know, is is officially broken?
<19> hi all, I just installed the server version of ubuntu, how do I get a window manager up and running (don't want Gnome)? will "sudo apt-get install wmaker" be enough, or is there mre to it?
<2> I have to overwrite the xorg with the backup every time
<6> matthew: Make sure your user is in the "admin" group (to do an emergengy root login you can use "recovery mode" at boot)
<12> Tobberoth: are you following the wiki?
<2> _jason: Yes
<11> it says permission denied
<6> Tobberoth: Do "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" instead (from a console)
<11> warbo it says permission denied
<20> matthew, are you using someone elses pc?
<14> TheHollow: if you say it's broken I can go to bed and rest :)
<11> kevin im in my computer
<2> omg Warbo, it wants my bus identifier
<21> how can I figure out where the Mozilla / firefox plugins directory?
<18> Aapzak, what problems are you having with it?
<7> matthew: what does ls -lash /etc/hosts give you?
<20> ok, just wondering matthew it was sounding like maybe you were using a pc that they setup a non sudo acct for you is all
<2> How do I know what to put as my bus identifier for my graphics card?
<12> abou: ~/.mozilla/plugins for local and /usr/lib/firefox/plugins
<11> judah it says "4.0K -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 60 2006-06-07 17:26 /etc/hosts
<6> Tobberoth: That doesn't matter. Leave it either default or blank
<22> ubuntu install from disk 1.44 with USB support ?
<4> Can someone help me uninstall a package that doesn't want to be removed?
<2> allright
<7> gethostbyname() error doesn't have to do with that.
<7> matthew: now cat /etc/hosts
<6> Tobberoth: Same for RAM
