<5> Sivik, lol, ok ill wait

<1> uXp: it should install the drivers for you
<1> xice: whats your issue
<7> did you try changing refresh rate wrath ?
<6> ah ok
<8> how do i reset the root p***word and my users current p***word through the terminal?
<9> Flannel: when i was still is breezy someone help me intall the turbogears and it was a success.
<2> No I shall try now
<0> mikekamrath you need to use mkinitramfs even if mkinitrd is also installed. scsi and late modle kernels dude



<5> Sivik, its getting compiz/XGL to work on my PC , 6600GT
<1> ok, why on earth are you using compiz on a nvidia card?
<4> xice: #ubuntu-xgl for XGL relatedstuffs.
<9> Flannel: but when i reformated my computer and upgraded to Dapperdrake. doin the same process doesnt work
<10> jackssssss: man p***wd
<11> hey, are there any amarok alternatives that are as good as amarok and have all of the functionality?
<1> Flannel: its not a xgl issue
<5> Sivik, what do u suggest?
<1> !tell xice about nvidia
<1> follow those instructions
<1> !nvidia
<12> nvidia is probably Help about installing the nVidia drivers on Ubuntu can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
<9> Flannel: it could be the website. or there should be another alternative
<4> harry: right, but it's a problem with their website, if you look, you see it can't find a file on their site. Ubuntu has nothing to do with it.
<1> xice: thats what i used for my 6600
<9> Flannel: thanks. 90% it could be
<4> harry: contact their support, since if they fix their site, or their setup script, it should work. Ubuntu has no control over either.
<9> Flannel: did you tried to install it??
<1> harry: it looks like a server on their end issue
<5> Sivik, , the nvidia logo comes up when i boot gnome, so its already installed right?
<4> harry: I did not.
<1> xice: yes
<2> Its still does it but less often, is there anything else you would suggest?
<1> xice: run glxgears -printfps
<1> and tell me what the output in fps is
<1> should be in the 4k range
<13> can anyone advise me where i can find a good How To for a network install?? im trying to install ubuntu on a laptop that has no cdrom drive and will not boot from a usb drive any help is appreciated
<5> Sivik, ok
<14> tuxtheslacker: not likely, amaroK is quite the program... but check out banshee (which runs on mono)
<15> xice I've give you a hand if you want to setup xgl/compiz over in #ubuntu-xgl :)
<5> glxgears -printfps
<1> yes
<5> wait 2 secs
<9> Flannel: how were you able to say that its the problem of their backend??
<5> 13680 frames in 5.0 seconds = 2711.412 F
<1> xice: your fine
<5> snoops, ok in a min
<5> Sivik, ok, soo...
<1> xice: normally anything over 1k is 3d acc
<5> yeah agree
<5> so, xgl...
<1> xice: you don't need xgl
<1> xice: its setup right
<5> yeah i want it
<5> oh ok
<1> xice: you already have it
<5> so what then?
<1> xice: its part of the nvidia drivers
<16> Sivik: no, it's not.
<1> xice: there isn't an issue
<11> piratepenguin, the db is kind of corrupted on amarok for me :-(. it finds four of some songs, and two of others, and it's ugly.
<5> so how do i get the fancy interface then?
<1> krazykit: so whats the point of it?
<16> Sivik: xgl is the opengl accelerated x-server.
<1> xice: what do you mean in fancy interface?
<0> F***a not to rub salt in an open wound but why do you have a lappy with 'boot only the windows i installed punk' attatude ?
<4> F***a: searching the wiki for net install, this looks promising: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Installation/Netboot
<1> like fancy theme? like xcfe or enlightenment?
<16> you can use it to do the fun compiz interface, sivic
<5> Sivik, the cube thing
<1> xice: i have no clue what cube thing your talking about



<5> lol ,
<4> harry: because the error the script gave,says it can't find a file on their site.
<14> tuxtheslacker: you could 'rm -rf ~/.kde/share/apps/amarok/', I think
<5> ok, ill see what snoops has to say, thanks anyway
<16> Sivik: compiz is fancy eye candy. i suggest you read up before you tell someone they have something if you're not sure what it is :_P
<1> harry: thats normally a problem with their webiste, and not your end
<4> harry: Ubuntu doesn't control that script, or their site, so it's obviously not ubuntu related
<1> krazykit, well, i knew he didn't need it
<15> Sivik there's a cube plugin for compiz which allows you to see your desktop as a virtual cube, instead of 4 seperate desktops by default
<1> snoops: ok
<11> piratepenguin, I gotta look that out. first I'm going to try amarok. I'd like something that was meant for gnome too :-D not Qt :-D.
<9> Flannel: did you also checked this??? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15509
<13> intelikey: did i say something wrong or am i misunderstanding what your saying? i did not mean to come off with a punk attitude
<14> tuxtheslacker: banshee and rhythmbox
<1> snoops: hence the reason why i said i had no clue what it was
<0> F***a no. no. that's not what i meant at all.
<4> harry: yes, that's what I was looking at.
<4> F***a: he meant the laptop manufacturer, he was just curious, did you get my URL?
<0> F***a the laptops makers was what i referred too
<17> anyone have problems with dapper not running games in full screen such as quake3?
<9> Flannel: So i just have to wait for them to fix the site then
<18> does anyone know of a lightweight xvid video encoder similiar to autogk for windows?
<13> ahhh ok lol sorry completely misunderstood what ya said sorry, and yes i am looking at it now thank you very much
<19> is there something as functional as TextPad (Mac) in Linux?
<20> can anyone recommend a video card that works well in linux and doesn't require a fan?
<4> harry: right. You might try asking them about it, via email or if they have a forum, or whatever. It's a problem they need to deal with, not anything Ubuntu can do about it.
<20> for watching videos, not gaming really
<16> gavagai: any nvidia card that's p***ively cooled, really.
<17> also have a game called orbz that just quits
<21> ati right digitalslave ?
<17> nvidia
<20> ok thanks
<0> did he say ati ?
<17> and set right - xgl runs great but not running while trying to game
<11> piratepenguin, ur fix worked!
<0> digitalslave you mean ati ?
<14> tuxtheslacker: cool :)
<17> nvidia fx 5600 256
<22> Guys i can't lauch any programs whats this mean --> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15510
<4> digitalslave: doesn't sound like a graphics card problem if XGL works on it.
<0> yeah i'v got nvidia :)
<17> yeah dunno its puzzling cuase ive never had this issue with previous ubuntu builds
<4> SAM_theman: you running XGL?
<10> SAM_theman: usually that means you don't have an X server running
<22> nope
<22> Whats you mean??
<17> no xgl is off now - just made a launcher to start it if in just farting around on the net
<22> My nvidia card works even my games
<11> hey, what is the widget called that houses all the icons of programs running in the background?
<1> SAM_theman, what kind of card?
<22> Nvidia Geforce 6600GT
<17> it will run quake 3 just not full screen
<1> what kind of fps when running glxgears?
<22> who me
<1> digitalslave, then just don't run it in full screen
<17> then it runs like crap
<13> t5hanks again for the help have a god evening/morning/afternoon/night
<1> SAM_theman, fps in glxgears
<14> SAM_theman: try this: 'xhost +'
<23> !glxgears
<12> To display the FPS type "glxgears -iacknowledgethatthistoolisnotabenchmark" or "glxgears -printfps"
<22> k
<10> you know what it's 1:30 at night. **** CUPS. It shouldn't be this hard to print something on ubuntu. I'm going to bed.
<17> and other games wont run at all
<16> guh, glxgears is not a benchmark. it's not even a psuedobenchmark. it depends on too much stuff
<24> !language
<12> Please watch your language. We try to be nice and help but some of us don't like to see such things on our screen.
<22> samuelp@General:~$ glxgears -printfps
<22> 35395 frames in 5.0 seconds = 7078.816 FPS
<22> 34821 frames in 5.0 seconds = 6964.083 FPS
<25> How can I restore administrator access if I've stupidly deleted it for both of the only defined users?
<1> SAM_theman, nice
<1> i have a 6600 and get just under 4k
