View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a Gateway laptop currently running Win Vista Home Basic. I have grown tired of repeatedly reinstalling this OS so I thought I would give Ubuntu a shot. The laptop is running a 1.6 GHz Celeron, 1470 MB of RAM, and has an 80 Gig hard drive. My problem is that I cannot get Ubuntu to load/install. I cannot run it from CD, I cannot setup as dual boot, and I cannot setup as a standalone. I am not worried about wiping out my Vista, as I said I have grown tired of it. OH and I cannot locate my Vista install disk at this time either.

I recently upgraded to 10.10 from 10.04 on my x86_64 system. The upgrade went fine except it cannot load the driver for my Matrox M9148. ("m9x")I simply get a "Cannot load driver" error. (there is more to it, will paste when I finish work)Basically the driver is there and in place, it loads it but cannot use it.When I go to reinstall the driver again manually, it dies with an error only supports Xorg up to 7.5So, now I see this is an Xorg and driver compat issue.I have reported it to Matrox and am awaiting a reply.
In the mean time though, since I need my machine working, is there anyway around the issue, or could I even roll back xorg to whatever it was in 10.04 to get the drivers working again?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to install Ubuntu (9.10) on my sisters computer. I have installed ubuntu 9.10, but when I try to boot it from hard drive, it would stop loading a bit after the logo appears. The screen would turn off while the system is still running. Live version of Ubuntu works after reports of errors. I tried to search for the problem all over the forum, and could not find a good lead to figure out the problem.
So far to figure out the problem, I verified if cd is corrupted. No issues there. Googled the problem, and seems like other users were able to install 7.04 (old posts).
Its so weird though that live version works and the installed version does not.
Here are my specs:
I can post logs, but I'm not sure which one is useful as I'm relatively new to this process.
I had Fedora 7 and Windows Vista dual booting on my computer. I just installed Fedora 10. When the live CD asked me where to install it, I chose "Remove all Linux Partitions and create default layout" The installation went perfectly, but now when reboot my computer, it boots directly into Fedora; GRUB does not load to ask me which OS I want to load. I know I did not overwrite Vista because I can still view my Vista files through Fedora. Here is my grub.conf file:

View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm having difficulties booting into my Wubi 10.04 install on my computer. I've been using this install for at least 6 months now with minimal problems, but this one is serious enough to make me have to use my old Microsoft Vista install (which is no fun because it's, well, Vista). But anyway, to the problem:I got on my computer this morning and turned it on. It came up like normal showing the logo DELL as the BIOS (I believe revision A12 if it matters at all) boots up and then goes to the Windows GRUB menu. From there, like normal it shows two options: Windows Vista and Ubuntu. And from there I selected Ubuntu. Like normal it has a few small command-line things it goes through, but then it does one that I've never seen before and goes so fast I wasn't quite able to read it, and then the screen stops and restarts from the beginning.
Normally, after this it would bring up the GRUB menu showing the various kernels that are installed for Ubuntu. There, I would select the latest kernel and continue on to the Ubuntu login screen where I would login and there I'd be on Ubuntu.This might be because yesterday I did some system updates on Ubuntu and it wanted a restart (it said "Restart Required" and the power button on the screen was red). But, instead I just delayed the restart and eventually just Shut Down the computer that night, thinking the Shut Down might render the same thing.I'm hoping I can at least go back and recover the files I had on Ubuntu. Not that any were really important, but I'd kinda want them back regardless. If this is impossible, what should I do to get back at using Ubuntu again? Should I try to partition my harddrive? Should I reinstall Wubi? Or should I even just try to fix whatever is broken that prohibits me getting on to Ubuntu?
From the first look it seems that Gnome is constantly loading something: mouse is always busy. After you open a window, there is no minimize or close buttons and newly opened window (any program) is always in left top corner position. I havent done much with my system lately so I dont know where it come from. After rebooted was the same, then I installed auto updates and after next reboot network manager was not loaded. After logout, in login screen, the same story, mouse is still loading.

The problem I am having is when I start up my system which is using CentOS 5, it got some errors and it cannot go into the GUI.
It had some errors like "touch" and I cannot start up my xserver.
for the last few releases, starting with 9.04 i've been having serious crashing problems with the nvidia driver. whether i installed it manually using the latest drivers directly from nvidia, or installing them through the restricted driver option. after a few hours CRASH. it's been awful. and i tried everything from this side to the moon to fix this issue, all to no avail. no idea why i've even stayed with ubuntu after all these issues. came from the debian world back in 5.04, and almost moved back a few times. but i did a clean install of 10.04, and thought i'd give the nvidia driver one last chance... if it didn't work i'd be moving back home to debian (with the suspicion the issue would stay).
so after i tried the restricted driver and CRASH. nothing to fix it. then i thought ok i'll try to use the latest driver from nvidia. but ran into this error when installing it:
Quote: ERROR: Unable to load the kernel module nvidia.ko. This happens most frequently when this kernel module was built against the wrong or improperly configured kernel sources, with a version of gcc that differs from the one used to build the target kernel, or if a driver such as rivafb/nvidiafb is present and prevents the NVIDIA kernel module from obtaining ownership of the NVIDIA graphics device(s), or NVIDIA GPU installed in this system is not supported by this NVIDIA Linux graphics driver release. so after googling around i found a fix to this error i was getting during the install:
Quote: sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
blacklist vga16fb
blacklist nouveau
blacklist rivafb
blacklist nvidiafb
