I just got Kubuntu 10.10 as a virtual machine with VMware player, with Ubuntu as the host. I've seen some really cool graphics effects with KDE. How can I get these on my virtual machine? Do I need to download a graphic package or something?
View 1 RepliesI have Kubuntu running as a virtual machine, with Ubuntu 10.10 as the host. When I maximize it, it only takes up a small part of the screen. This is really annoying, especially when looking at large programs that are too wide.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI recently installed Kubuntu 9.10 onto a HP/Compaq dc5000, video card Intel 865GV w/Extreme2.The LCD monitor I have is V7 L17PS max resolution: 1280x1024.My problem is the maximum resolution that is available in Kubuntu is 800x600.I tried to run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" from terminal however I got not response. No screen or app started.I also tried to install "xserver-xorg-video-intel" from KPackageKit however it never allows this, the Apply button stays grayed out.What can I do? Am I able to change the screen resolution to something higher?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am running Kubuntu 10.04 with KDE 4.2.2. I have a problem with "BackingStore", which does not preserve the contents of a window created by another program (actually PAW, producing a histogram). I have created a small xorg.conf, just containing this code:
Section "Device"
Identifier "VMware SVGA"
Driver "vmware"
Option "BackingStore" "true"
EndSection
The contents of the created window is indeed preserved when putting other widows over it and removing them again. This was not the case without the xorg.conf above. Without this file the content covered by another window is not redrawn after shifting the obscuring window.
However, the content is cleared when I switch to different virtual screen and then coming back to the original one. So Backingstore is not working between virtual windows.
In my old 8.04 installation (with KDE 3) everything was fine with the backingstore: Switching between virtual windows did not clear the contents!
I wanted to update my NVIDIA Drivers from the default to 256 (or whatever the latest is on their site). After the upgrade from their site and installing it through a command line, I've had trouble. For some reason, whenever I boot, I get the Kubuntu boot screen, even though I run plain Ubuntu. Also, after I boot it defaults to low graphics mode, and I have to hit "restart X" to make it run normal. Even then, visual effects won't enable, and games won't run, because apparently the "hardware device cannot be found". My attempts to revert back to old drivers have been unsuccessful; It says it's running the recommended right now, but I still have all these problems.

I am installing Fedora 8 inside Virtual Box. Should I update or just leave it as is? I normally use Ubuntu but I am currently going to college and have a class starting in two weeks.

Tri-booting. They were installed in the order I listed above. I ran into a few bugs with Kubuntu, so I no longer want to use it.

I believe the local disk read should be faster to translate than to bite the bytes across thousands of miles over the wire right?
I have a Gigabyte GA-MA74GM-S2 motherboard with integrated graphics that shows up on lspci as an ATI Radeon 2100. I also bought a PCI-Express Nvidia graphics card so I could use the VDPAU feature on Linux (plays H.264 in hardware). The BIOS has three settings about which display to initialize first:
Integrated graphics
PCI graphics
PCI-Express graphics (PEG)
I set the BIOS on PEG, but
I cannot get anything, not even a splash screen or POST messages, to emerge from the PCI-Express graphics card. (I'm using a DVI connector; the card also has an HDMI output.)I cannot get the kernel lspci to see the graphics card; the only VGA controller it acknowledges is the integrated one.Running dmidecode acknowledges the existence of an x16 PCI Express slot, and it says
Current usage: Unknown
There is an additional BIOS setting called "Internal Graphics Mode" which is normally set to "Auto" which means it is supposed to prefer a PCI Express VGA card. I set it to "Disabled" which now means I'm getting no output at all. I will soon be learning how to do a BIOS reset!
Other information: The PCI-E card is a MSI N210-MD512H GeForce 210. This is a fanless card. Although there are no fans to see turning, the heat sink on the PCI-E card is definitely getting hot, so the card is getting some sort of power.It gets all its power from the PCI-E slot; there is no external power connector.The BIOS is an AMI Award BIOS.how can I make the PCI Express graphics card visible to Ubuntu?
I have just installed Ubuntu (9.10) and noted that in order to successfully run the trial off the CD I had to test in "safe graphics" mode. I have an NVIDIA GEforce 6600 GT card - which was discovered by Ubuntu in the first few minutes of the trial and so I activated the recommended driver and continued to test. After a successful trial I installed Ubuntu (dual partition Ubuntu / Windows XP), however, it seems the install didn't activate the required driver (as part of the process) and so I'm unable to get into my newly-installed Ubuntu at all. All I get is a flashing tty screen asking for my username and password - however it's erratic and won't recognise what I type. So - I'm stuck in a catch-22 as there doesn't seems to be a safe graphics mode option via the start (GRUB?) menu list.

When I create virtual ethernet interface and do a ping -I <v_int> <host> the outgoing address is the one of the physical interface and NOT the virtual interface.Is there no chance that trafic will go out with virtual interface address??Incoming trafic is done well i.e. responds to the virtual interface have the virtual address.
My problem is that I have 2 modems and want to check both default gw behind the modems.
If I do a "normal" ping both are reachable over default route even the modem which is not the default route will not work because ping goes over the working modem.So I have 2 routing tables and want to route the virtual interface to one modem the other to the other modem
