After closing some game my display resolution turned into 640x480 so I tried to modify xorg.conf to the following but I noticed that there are disappeared sides (at right & left) in my monitor and fonts appear small and ugly! How can I fix this issue?

I (somewhat foolishly) decided to reformat windows XP and make my foray in the Ubuntu world with Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid just last week. It has treated me fairly well so far and with the help of others posts have been able to get most everything setup to my liking. However...My Problem:I tried to install the ATI drivers for my radeon 9700 using ati-driver-installer-9-3-x86.run. I tried to install it using the Ubuntu/9.04 settings, hoping that I could get it to work like that and I was quite wrong. When I restarted my computer I was started in simple graphics mode, and now I'm trying to set things right again.'ve un-installed the fglrx drivers (I think...) and now I'm stuck. Play On Linux tells me that I need to install 3D acceleration, something I know my graphics card has..

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am planning on upgrading the video card in my computer, an NVidia GeForce 9500 GT video card, to something that can handle at least 1600x1200 24-bit resolution without noticeable choppiness other "slow-downs" in graphic display. The card in question does have one gigabyte of RAM, but the type of memory it utilizes is DDR2 instead of something, i.e. DDR3 and above, with greater speed. Admittedly, the system in question is used for gaming as well as work. I want to stick with the NVidia brand because it has worked well for me, but I am not sure what would be the correct line of cards to use.
View 4 Replies View Relatedso I've got a openSuse 11.3 machine with KDE. As graphic card I've got a 9500GT and as display a syncmaster 570b. Now both work fine with other products (9500GT works fine on my other display and my Windows laptop works fine with the syncmaster 570). I beleive it's because of the frequency. here's a list of frequencies supported by the 570: Technische Daten zu Samsung Syncmaster 570B - TFT Monitor bei dooyoo.de
I also installed nvidia drivers via yast2. But how do I change the frequency? I've been trying to solve the problem for hours. Oh yeah when I connect my 570b to my 9500gt, I sometimes get a picture and sometimes don't. However when I get a picture colors are very strange and it flickers hardly.
I have Ubuntu 9.10 installed on my computer. I also have Galaxy (Nvidia) 9500 GT PCI-E card installed on it. I can get both monitors (Acer X223w) to work but every time I shut off the computer and turn it back on the second monitor is shut off. I just need to turn it back on using Nvidia X Server Settings. I have tried to save my X configuratin file but I keep getting an error of:" Unable to remove old X config backup file '/etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup'. I have a feeling this is because I am not signed in as root. Is this correct? If this is the case is there a way to get to sign in as root not using the command lines? Otherwise they need to remove this button. I can manually create a backup (copy paste into a text file). I think. Getting back to my Xorg.conf file, I think I need to modify it to have two screens. I have also got some information on my video card using the lspci command. I think I need some information from this. I have written below (towards the bottom) what I think the file should be. Now before I do this, does anybody know of an easy way to back up my whole computer? With my luck I am about to screw something up big time. I think I can just get away with the text file that I copied from the Xorg. Worst case scenario I will just manually replace the file.
Information on my computer:
OS: Ubuntu 9.10 32bit
Motherboard: ASUS M3A78
CPU: AMD Phenom 9500 Quad Core
Video Card: Galaxy Geforce 9500 GT 1GB 128 bit DDR2 (Nvidia)
Hard Drive: Hitachi 1 TB Sata Drive 3 Gb/sec 7200 RPM
Ram: 4 GB (I think, its been awhile since I built this thing)
DVD Burner: LG
Here is a copy of my xorg.conf file: (I don't think it matters but I have both monitors turned on right now).
from the lspci | grep VGA:
I think I need the 01:00 information for my Bus ID. The only thing that I am confuse on is that I was expecting to see two of them.
Okay, this is what I think I need to do: I tried to add color to make it easier to find the changes I made but for some reason I cannot. I will add **** on the end (right side) so my additions and questions will be easier to find.
Do I need to add another Device for the video? Doesn't make sense to me since I only have one video card. I was told it should be based on the # of chips on the card. So I guess I should have two of them since I have two outputs.
one of my Evga GeForce 9500 GT's fan started acting up today. It is wobbling, vibrating loudly, and not spinning at full speed. And while I believe the card is still under warranty, I'd rather just buy a new fan and put it inmyself avoiding the hassle of sending it back and waiting for a replacement (and most likely refurbished) one. That being said, does anyone know where I could buy just the fan? Google has turned up nothing so far but the numbers on the fan are A4010-45LB-2UN-C1 and FA7C0412MA-SBNNA but I have no idea what these numbers are; the manufacturer is Cooler Master.

You just install Blueman
Code:
sudo apt-get install blueman
Search for your BlackBerry, Pair it to your computer, then go to Devices > Serial ports > Dial Up Networking.
Your wireless connection should be in Network Manager. NOTE: You may have to right-click on NM and setup Numbers, Passwords, Usernames. I did.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have two MP3 Player device and 1 old Blackberry phone(they could be connect to PC with USB cable). All of them works fine with Windows 7. Now I want to connect them to my Ubuntu 10.04.
When connected,There is absolutely no information about my devices either by dmesg, lsusb,mount or fdisk -l, gvfs-mount -l,cat /var/log/messages.
I have tried following but not work:
1.logout and re-plug my device then login again; plugin my device and reboot;
2.modprobe uhci_hcd ehci_hcd usb-storage and re-plug my device
3.add uhci_hcd ehci_hcd usb-storage lines to /etc/modules .
4.install mtpfs mtp-tools packages and use it in rhythmbox.
5.remove any other USB devices and re-plug my device.
The strange thing is, my kindle reader is worked fine with 10.04, but either my MP3 players or my old Blackberry phone is not identified by 10.04. Maybe All of the un-identified devices is USB1.X, but I'm not sure, or if there is some problem with old USB support.
My MP3 player identified as two device with Windows 7, one is USB CDROM, another is USB Mass storage.
I have a USB hub with one usb mouse and one USB key board, both works well with 10.04.

while the BB was connected. And you will see byt the attached pic that the sd card is not mounting. I can't see where the card is now. The file manager did list it but can't remember where. With all the other drives(i have 2 hard drives) but now i can't see it. There is some confusion as to wether the music that the BB software i used via windows put the music on the BB device or the card. Different things say different things. The filemanager on the BB suggests the files are on the card but when i go to add more files i get an error saying the device is full. The device can only hold 1gb of files including installed apps. I probably haven't mentioned everything here as this is doing my head in. I have been battling for weeks with it and i wish i had of known earlier that the card might be faulty so i could have got my money back.
syncing their blackberry with Fedora 11. I followed the how to but haven't had any luck.

HOWTO: Sync Contacts between BlackBerry and Evolution on Fedora 10
1. Overview
Open source tools are available to sync a BlackBerry with Evolution but it appears these tools are not supported by Fedora 10. The main thing that seems to be missing is the Barry plugin for OpenSync. Maybe the reason that this package has not been created is that Barry requires OpenSync version 0.22, whereas F10 ships OpenSync version 0.36. This HOWTO explains how to build all of the required components from source code. If the required package becomes available, this HOWTO would then be redundant.
This entire build and installation is performed in the home directory of a non-root user to ensure that no system files are broken. Some of the commands in this HOWTO must be run as root, when this is the case it is stated explicitly and otherwise the commands in this document should be run under a non-root account. The username for the examples below is erik.
2. Be a Developer
When you install F10 you are prompted to specify the uses to which your computer will be put. Hopefully you selected software development, if not your machine will probably be missing many of the utilities required for this HOWTO.
3. Initialize Evolution
Open Evolution and click on all of the buttons at the left to ensure that the necessary databases are created.
4. Prepare The Environment

View 3 Replies View RelatedI upgraded from OpenSuSE 11.1 to 11.2 and now the software bbtether/berry4all is unable to gain a hold on the blackberry. I get connection timed out errors with no hope in sight as to what is holding this BB hostage.
Berry_charge is not the culprit as it has been de-registered. I did notice one difference between 11.1 and 11.2--it appears usbcore.ko has been compiled in with 11.2 and doing an lsmod on 11.1 yields usbcore as a module where 11.2 does not--not sure if this is by design.
I am not sure what is going on here but I suspect their is something/some_module not allowing me to get a connection to this device.
Bare install of 11.1 and 11.2 on the same piece of hardware (Dell Latitude D600) too by the way--nothing has changed but the release! This all worked great on 11.1--I don't understand it...?
i was wondering if it is possible too use the DD command to make an image file of my blackberry 8330?i need it of the onboard memory and not the external memory card.
