I just installed the latest version of Ubuntu on an external disk (500gb) giving 12gb to Ubuntu.
After the installation process finished I did reboot. When BIOS loaded instead of the Ubuntu boot screen a message from the monitor presented like this:
information
out of range
93.0kHz/58Hz
So I suppose that there must be a monitor problem or something.
I upgraded to ubuntu 10.4 and now my screen says out of range. I can hear my normal login noises. sounds like I am working blind. after I log in I cannot do anything without knowing whats going on. I tried ctrl-alt + to try to change screen resolution but I cant tell if it pops up. nothing new happens. I cant slave my hard drive to my other windows or linux OS or linux Live CD, it tells me I dont have permission to open files so I can rescue my files. DO I have to buy a new graphics card or new monitor?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have installed Ubuntu 11.04 along side windows 7 ultimate. But the problem is as soon as I switch on my computer. There is only a blank screen with my TFT screen displaying a msg "Out of Range"
Then suddenly Ubuntu loads without showing any option to load windows 7.
Installed CentOS 5.4 x86-64, installation is fine. First bootup after install always fails (after a few messages are displayed) with my monitor showing an "out of range" message.I know exactly what to fix (sync values in xorg.conf) and what values to enter there, but what I can't figure out is, how to get to a stupid prompt! Or a smart one for that matter.Also, I do get a message (before the "out of range" message) from CentOS, telling me to "press I for interactive startup" - but all that does is print as many "I" on the screen as I press. And did they really mean "I" and not "i" for this?
I hear great things about CentOS and if you can help with this silly question - How to get to a prompt - as easy as it probably is for you all, it would help me a lot.
on an older computer. I get as far as the screen that asks if I want to try or install and then I get a message saying the screen resolution is wrong and I need to reset. I even disabled the hard drive in bios and still get this message. computer was built to run xp and had ubuntu on it before. I tried to upgrade the nvidia driver and broke it.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have used Universal USB Installer to extract the xubuntu 10.10 iso and install onto a flash drive. I would like to try a live version of xubuntu that boots from a flash drive. When attempting to boot from the flash drive, the screen effectively freezes after displaying the syslinux / ebios copyright message, with a flashing cursor.
Does anyone know a possible cause or solution? Information that may be useful: I am using a 4GB flash drive, formatted as FAT32. I formatted once using the Universal USB Installer, but some files were left on the drive, so I have reformatted it using the option provided by the Windows interface, (and reinstalled xubuntu.)
When I opt to install onto USB with a 2GB persistence file using Universal USB Installer, the installation processes hangs with a dialogue saying there are 0 seconds left to copy, until the dialogue is forcefully shut (and installation appears to be successful). When I select no persistence file, the process does not hang. (I am faced with the same aforementioned problem at boot time, regardless.)
I have not checked the md5sum (though I have no reason to suspect it will fail.) I have downloaded a simple programme which checks a single md5sum against a single file, although I am unsure which file I should check against in the case of xubuntu, and if the md5sum.txt file represents a single md5sum.
I am using Windows Vista on an old Toshiba Satellite. I am new to using linux, and am very unfamiliar with the the setup and installation procedure.
I have the normal OS choices menu (Windows XP or Unbuntu) but when I choose ubuntu I get an instant flash of an error message on a black screen so quick I cannot read the whole thing but I caught "error" and "format" and then the computer reboots. I have no problem getting into Windows.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI've been having this problem ever since I updated the kernel version and reinstalled the video drivers. It happens after grub and before I log in with my account.I know it wasn't a resolution related problem due to the fact that I had a compatible one set last time (I don't really think 1024x768 has any problems with my monitor), and the only thing left to modify is the vertical and horizontal refresh rate, and for that I tried running:
Code:sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorgas some forums/threads pointed, but it just returns a blank line and nothing happens (the threads were quite old since I couldn't find anything recent so I suppose it's outdated). So then, what do I do to reconfigure X? X.X
My screen is always telling me "signal out of range. 75.0 KHz / 60 Hz when I have my graphic card driver installed. I have tried many ways to solve that problem and I have been tried many things that I read in many tutorials. I don't know how to solve that and I've been trying new things for nearly 2 weeks.I have tried the same thimgs in ubuntu 10.10, 9.10 and 9.04 but with no results.

I have just spent hours upgrading 10.10 to 11.04 Natty and when I rebooted at the end, all I'm getting is a small box on screen saying OUT OF RANGE.
I do not have grub or windows or anything else to boot into, ubuntu was my main system, what can I do?

I am able to boot PC with a live CD (Karmic) but cant acess most of my files because I am not the owner apparently? Cant change permissions either?

i installed a program called start-up manager. i fiddled with the display settings cause on startup of the computer my boot screens and etc were out of wack placed halfway across the screen and really pixelated. after changing the resoloution i restarted and just after booting everything goes black and it comes up with the input signal is out of range. ive tried to run livecd or live usb i should say as its on a usb stick. and search for commands to repair my screen settings but cant. ive tried to run grub cause i heard its a repair console by pressing and holding shift it doesnt work ive tried to ctrl alt f2 and other commands during start up non of them work. they all just result in that message popping up.
there is no repair console for me to access during start up. i just want to roll back to before i did this when everything was working. also half the commands given on other threads come up with error messages saying commands were wrong and such. and ive also started up bios to try and change display settings for it to magically work so i can login and change my settings back and nothing happens. im using another computer at the moment to find results.
I followed the instructions given at http://linuxhub.net/2010/06/fix-big-and-ugly-plymouth-in-ubuntu-10-04-lucid-lynx/ for fixing my ugly plymouth screen after installing Nvidia drivers. All worked as expected. However I made some modifications in the instructions as I required.
Code:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash nomodeset video=uvesafb:mode_option=1280x1024-24,mtrr=3,scroll=ywrap
I used 1366*768 instead of 1280*1024.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI want to plot a set of data in only one plot.The problem is that some points of the data should be better plotted in a linear scale (lets say 0 to 100,000) but there are other data points that, exceding the value 100,000, would be better plotted in a logarithmic scale, as they goes in the range 100,000 to 500,000,000. Let's say the data is:
Code:
X Y
0 100
10000 80

View 2 Replies View RelatedI want to build a bash script, which can ping a range IP adresses which will be filled in by the admin. If there is no IP-adress filled in, then the script must ping the subnet where the system is logged on. So if my ip is 192.168.1.6, then the script must ping from 192.168.1.1 till 192.168.1.255 Or else, if there is given a beginning and ending ip it must ping that!
The first part of the bash script is to ping a given range (see below). But there is one problem, how can I tell the script to ping from $begin till $end, [..] is of course wrong! But what must be filled in there???
echo "Enter beginning IP-adres:"
read begin
echo "Enter ending IP-adres:"
read end
ping -c 1 $begin [..] $end
The second part is to find my own ip and ping the whole range.. How to do that? I only can find my own IP, but I cant ping the whole range,, how to do that?
#!/bin/bash
ifconfig | grep 'inet addr:' | grep -v '127.0.0.1' |

Last Thursday, 3/11, I installed a new mother board (ASUS M4A785TD-V EVO), AMD Athlon II X4 Processor, 4Gig DDR3 ram (RIP JAWS), 1 SATA DVD drive, along with my 2 IDE HDD's. The display was OK during BIOS review, and boot UNTIL it came to mounting x-graphics, at which point the screen went black, and a display message came up saying Out-of-RangeHf: 30KHz-70KHzVf: 50Hz-90HzCurrent Frequency:90.3KHz, 60.0Hz.
Does anyone know what is causing this? I mean, is there no way that Deb 5 X86 is going to run on a quad 64-bit system, or can something else be wrong? Before changing hardware, I had seen indications that this system was backward-compatible to older systems, and the more in depth study I've done since seems to verify this.y be, however, that I completely mis-understand what I am reading - this is all pretty new to me.
I tried booting into Debian 4, Libranet 3, and Linspire 6. They all complained loudly, but differently, about x being inoperable. I can't tell you how they complained because I can't go back and check them. THAT is because, in BIOS, I was testing the system with all the different options for "Internal Graphics", to see if one would work. One of these options was "Disabled". Oh-ho-ho! BAD MOVE!!! it's disabled, all right, including BIOS! I can't believe it. There was no warning, whatsoever. I assumed no engineer in his right mind would allow that option to lock out the BIOS without SOME kind of warning. I'm going to try to call ASUS tech support tomorrow to see if they have a solution, but if anyone knows how to reverse this, please let me know. I suppose the only answer is a separate graphics board. But I don't want to get that if I can't use this MotherBd.-processor setup.
Got the problem where after the Bios loads my screen just says "out of range" and I cant do anything else. Running on a live cd.

After I've burned the live cd, I can get to the menu (try ubuntu, install etc), but whenever I try to start ubuntu the frequency goes out of range.
I have tried adding vga=771 to the end of the boot line, this had no effect.
EDIT: Am downloading the alternate now.
I just updated my Wubi install of 9.10 to 10.04 last night. Everything went well until it required me to reboot the computer. I rebooted, loaded Ubuntu from the startup list, and then the screen went blank and I got "H.V. frequency over range" on the monitor.
I can load the GRUB options, but recovery mode using the most recent kernel does not work. I am entirely unexperienced with using the terminal and command prompt options.
Here's what I have attempted so far:
$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg this did not do anything, the command was not recognized
$sudo nano xorg.config I don't even know what to do when I get to this screen
and I am about to try $ sudo displayconfig-gtk
I have an ATI Radeon 9100 IGP card
this has happened with a few different attempts of ubuntu based distros lately ... i try to boot a live cd it gets to where it starts loading and the monitor pops off and says input out of range ... im aware that this is a known bug with xorg choosing either the wrong resolution or refresh rate ... but what the heck are we supposed to do , i can't get far enough into the boot process that i can open a terminal and try to bypass xorg ... so will all future distributions of ubuntu just be out of the question for me ? if you ask me what needs to be done is make the installer ASK what resolution you want to attempt to boot at .... similar to what puppy does
View 2 Replies View RelatedMy only unhappiness with 11.04, after I installed in on 4/28 on my Eee PC 1000H (dual booting with Windows XP), is that the range of wireless reception in my house, from exactly the same spot as before, has worsened considerably.

I'm currently trying to install 10.10 on my (8-year old) desktop, but I'm getting a warning that says "PC video resolution is out of range. Change setting to Recommended resolution 1924*768@85Hz".
Which would be fine, if I knew how. Is there any way to do this in the installer? I can't get any further than the "Try/Install etc" menu screen.
It has a nvidia Geforce graphics card, if that helps. I can't give you any more info than that because the specs have been lost to the mists of time and old email addresses.
My brother got a new 120hz monitor, but can only get the old one to work. If he boots up with both of them connected in windows xp they work fine, but in Ubuntu 10 only the old one works. If he tries to detect the monitor in Display Preferences, nothing happens. The old monitor is connected to vga output (lcd with vga only) the new monitor is connected to dvi with a dual-link dvi cable. We know the graphics cards cannot provide 120hz, for now we run the monitor at 60hz until he upgrades the rest of the pc (sandy bridge i guess).The 120hz monitor worked fine until he changed graphics card from a ATI radeon 9200 to a geforce 3 ti 500.
He has tried
sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
and detect monitor in Display Preferences but no dice. Could he try restricted drivers?

Ubuntu 10.04 32bit
athlon xp 1700mhz
