<4> tonygeorge, the easy way to see is to type apt-cache policy xserver-xorg-driver-mga , and it will tell you which version you have installed under Installed:
<5> calamari, you've got to write the choice you want to xorg.conf, in /etc/X11

<14> hi guys - I'm trying to get a microtouch usb touchscreen working per the instructions here: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=158666 but I don't have a /dev/ttyUSB0
<0> ubuntu_: pm me if you want
<14> does anyone have any pointers on that?
<14> (the touchscreen does respond - just not calibrated correctly)
<12> anyone could help me out install this dirver.tar.bz2 package ??
<1> nickrud: yes. im still here. waiting for you.
<4> tonygeorge, look up :)
<10> ubuntu_: I see what you are saying, they don't actually list a card, that probably means it was integrated then or someone messed up
<4> tonygeorge, https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-driver-mga/+bug/43793 . Someone posted a hack fix at the end
<6> _jason, well dell said integrated in this chat thingie
<14> if I plug a device into the USB port should it always show up under a /dev/ttyUSB device?
<0> ubuntu_: but your lspci said ati, which do you believe?
<15> bunzip2 dirver.tar.bz2 then tar -xvf dirver.tar
<0> as i said, i'll look it up for you if you want
<0> you have to know what you have to get it working right
<6> paradizelost, yeah i msgd u
<1> nickrud: yes. you wanted to know which version of xserver-xorg-driver-mga is installed on my pc. here it is :
<1> nickrud: version 6.8.2-77.1
<12> ok...another question... have this makefile file ... how do i build it ?
<15> ./configure && make && make install
<16> hi ist there a backup-tool for the hole harddisk ?
<4> tonygeorge, I saw that. Your exact problem is shown at that link I gave you, and a potential fix is there as well
<0> ubuntu_: i'm not seeing it
<4> tonygeorge, I don't have a matrox, so I can't actually test it :)
<1> nickrud: would you please give me that link again, i cannot see your message with a link other than that pastebin link. sorry.
<17> paradizelost, now?
<4> tonygeorge, https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-driver-mga/+bug/43793 . Someone posted a hack fix at the end
<1> nickrud: ok i will try this. Thank you :-)
<2> paradizelost: okay, I installed the nivida drivers and got the logo, but 60Hz is still the only choice that gnome gives to me.. what next?
<4> tonygeorge, those files that you're replacing will be automatically updated with the next xorg release, you might want to keep that file from matrox around
<14> hi guys - in terms of referencing a USB device - do they always appear as /dev/ttyXXX?
<1> nickrud: still writting down the long url. :) dont know how to copy and paste, no X.
<15> anyone know how to link up kOrginizer to google calander gmail?
<18> dougie, depends on the USB device.
<4> tonygeorge, install gpm, it gives you a cut & paste mouse on the console
<5> Hello
<18> and dougie, tty usually ref's a terminal.
<14> robertl: this is a touchscreen - i'm trying to calibrate it (ubuntu detects it (it responds)) but can't work out how to reference it for xorg.conf
<14> robertl: so USB wouldn't be ttyUSB0?
<19> need help diagnosing a boot hang, looks like kernel upgrade no longer recognizes SATA boot drive initrd
<5> Hello. I'm in non-graphical mode now, and I'm trying to install gnome/X11...I've got them installed, but when I try and "startx"
<0> calamari: is there a reason you want higher than 60hz?
<5> It says something about the fonts.
<1> nickrud: ok i will try, that. it will be very helpful.
<18> seing as how it's a touch screen I don't rightly know dougie.
<4> calamari, next you need to add HorizSync & VertRefresh for your monitor in the Monitor Section of /etc/X11/xorg.conf
<2> paradizelost: yes, 60hz really hurts my eyes.. I need 85 or higher
<14> robertl: cool - thanks anyway mate
<18> whats lsusb spit out at you?
<14> robertl: this was the guide i was following: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=158666
<5> Is there a fonts pack that I can download?
<1> nickrud: sorry i cannot view that website because links showed an error that it doesn't support SSL.
<14> robertl: Bus 002 Device 002: ID 0596:0001 MicroTouch Systems, Inc. Touchscreen
<2> nickrud: ahh, that's it.. I guess it overwrote my old defaults.. thanks!
<4> tonygeorge, try lynx or elinks
<19> does anyone know if 2.6.15-21 or -22 have problems with SATA? I can no longer boot
<1> nickrud: ok
<2> brb
<18> dougie, I fired up a sidebar so we aren't churning here.
<20> jmccc: try asking in #ubuntu+1
<19> gnomefreak: thanks
<20> yw
<21> what's #ubuntu+1? /me goes to find out
<14> robertl: sorry mate - i'm a noob - how do I join the sidebar?
<22> will sudo install work for Debian Pkg in Ubuntu ?
<12> ladies and gentlemen...how do i install this driver file...is that a very hard question :)) i have this dvb-driver.tar.bz2 in the usr/src/modules folder... i want to install this file ...thank u anyone for helping out :))
<18> dougie, should be a tab if you are using xchat... if not thats cool.
<14> i am - but don't see it
<18> id that mutouch driver loaded on your box?
<14> I have an underscore after my nick
<18> ooops. my bad.
<18> dougie_
<18> like so?
<4> megaman123, start by cd /usr/src && sudo tar xf dvb-driver.tar.bz2 and read README & INSTALL
<14> yah! :)
<18> cool.
<5> How can I copy a directory?
<23> Olde: sudo dpkg -i package.deb
<24> ok so close
<22> yes
<24> i have my interface working with wireless ipw3945
<0> jimMmy_: cp -Rfv /source/directory /destination/direcotry
<24> can't seem to get it to connect to my AP
<18> so dougie_, is that driver on your box?
<25> my firefox crash then i am trying to go to another page other than the startpage what could be the problem?
<5> Thankyou
<26> I have a creative zen plugged into my laptop. Any idea where in devices there is a reference to it?
<24> iwconfig eth1 essid belkin54g mode Ad-Hoc sound right?
<18> lsmod |grep mutouch
<26> I have kzenexplorer, but it doesn't let me browse the drivew
<14> k
<2> nickrud: thanks, that fixed the 60hz problem
<27> ola
<28> hey
<22> bbl
<4> calamari, not a hard stretch ;)
<0> nickrud: calamari, just wondering what was the fix for future reference?
<14> robertl: not mutouch - but i do have mtouchusb
<28> hybrid: I reburned it and it worked
<18> hmmm.
<14> mtouchusb 5888 0
<14> usbcore 104188 3 mtouchusb,uhci_hcd
<29> Falluccer: YAY!
<4> paradizelost, no useful monitor def in xorg.conf & ddcprobe didn't work for debconf
<12> nickrud: it extarcted 3 folders and 1 "Makefile" file, but no read me files
<4> or whatever the debconf does
<2> paradizelost: dpkg-reconfigure says that it will use monitor defaults (and I ***umed it used the old values in xorg.conf), but it doesn't.. it changes the values to its own defaults which enforces 60hz.. so I had to copy the horiz/vert lines out of my old xorg.conf to the new one
<0> ahhh. k
<4> megaman123, I'd look to the website you got it from for a howto.
<30> Hello
<5> I can't get X to work! It says something like: "Could not load default font: 'Fixed'"
<5> What's the problem?
<12> i didn't get it from anywhere ... i found it there
<31> Hey guys, I'm having a problem with my SATA drive... I just bought one and plugged it in, but how do I mount it?
