I have openGL working fine on my system.The only problem is that when I try to run the executable file, nothing appears unless the full scene has been rendered.In fact, it appears in parts, i.e. updates after a second, then after another second etc...However, earlier, the rendering used to be continuous and I could see each pixel getting rendered in a continuous fashion.

I downloaded an FLV video and placed an extra MP3 file over it. Two files. Total: 30 MBI experimented with about seven rendering containers, and QuickTime renderer was the only rendering container that didn't result in sped-up/compressed video or correct rendering for just fifteen seconds.How in the name of all that is holy did this rendering end up with 570 extra MB?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI just upgraded from FC8 (32-bit) to FC11 (64-bit). In doing so, I backed up my entire World of Warcraft folder so I could try to avoid having to download and install it all over again. However, I've now reinstalled wine (64-bit now), and the nvidia drivers from the rpmfusion repos (also 64-bit), and when I try to start WoW, it says it cannot load OpenGL. I'm wondering if anyone knows what's up, and if there's a solution that doesn't involve reinstalling WoW.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI recently downloaded Frets On Fire and the HRP Polymer pack for Duke3D...Duke3D runs fine with just EDuke32 and no mods, just Duke3D and EDuke32. But when I try the HRP Polymer pack, it says in Terminal "NVIDIA: Direct Rendering failed, attempting indirect rendering." This is fine...if I want the game to lag like hell, I'm sure my video card and the driver for it support DR, the video card is a NVIDIA Geforce FX 5200, the same message appears in terminal when I run Frets On Fire, I think it does with other games too, if someone could explain how to enable Direct Rendering.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI've installed Ubuntu 10.10 64 bit (I am an experienced Linux user here), installed a few extras like docky, zeitgeist, added my Ubuntu one account (I don't synchronise much at all, about 100kb max), my twitter account using Gwibber, but nothing much else. I also mount a few smbfs shares in my fstab file at bootup. About the only other program that uses the net that I can think of is running would be rabbitvcs, but I can't imagine that will keep downloading if I am not doing anything.I noticed that when opening system monitor, it is continuously downloading 8.6kb/sec, even if I am doing absolutely nothing. It gets to the point that after an hour or so of use, 100mb or more has downloaded, but what for??
I tried a Googling a few commands to figure out what is eating up network download bandwidth, such as "netstat -p" and "lsof | grep tcp", to try to figure out what is downloading so much at a constant rate, but I can't seem to find the process.I have tried disabling stuff one after the other:
I disconnected my Ubuntu one account
I removed my Twitter account from gwibber
I terminated zeitgeist-daemon
I terminated all desktop-couch related processes
I disconnected all my smbfs drives
But it is still downloading 8.6kb/sec, steadily. This is wasting a lot of bandwidth during the day, and I am not sure what is causing it.
p.s. it is only doing downloading, never uploading.
My server is currently copying a large amount of date. I periodically check how much has already been copied by using the "ls" command in the destination folder. Is there a way so that ls kind of self updates itself? Like in a log or so? Or like when using cp -v?

I recently had my laptop which ran windows xp, wiped and ubuntu installed in its place. I was told of all the grand benefits of ubuntu so I thought yeesss. Everything was running beautifully, everything was heavenly, until i encountered "a flash website ". This was strange because ..... worked fine.
Anyway ever since I encountered that site Ubuntu crashes on startup. I log in then crash. Its strange because sometimes it takes a while to crash e.g. when trying to open any application, or sometimes its instant.
1. How i diagnose this problem so it can be fixed, remember it may have to be before the log in.
2. Is there someway I can do a system restore to its original settings or something?
After a terrible problem I had with x-server, I decided to opt for a clean install. So, naturally I poped in the 10.10 LiveCD (from Canonical), deleted the Ubuntu Partiton (ext4) and swap, and entered the installer. I have a 40gb Vista partition, 90gb media partition, and 20gb unallocated free space. Once I get to allocate drive space in the installation, I get three options - Install alongside other operating systems, erase and use the entire disk, or specify partitions manually. If I click install alongside other operation systems, it tries to take space away from my media partition to install ubuntu. I'm not too advanced with Ubuntu, so I don't think I'm going to specify my own. I don't know how much to give swap etc, etc, etc.What ever happened to use the largest amount of continuous free space? I have 20gb free I would love ubuntu to use.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI installed the video drivers for my ATi 3870 and I found out the hard way it was the wrong driver, so now upon booting I can only get as far as an Ubuntu screen with some text and then my computer will restart once it reaches that point. It'll keep doing this until I turn it off, and I can't seem to get to a point in which I can get any control over it. I made a live CD but it has the same effect.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have an EeePC 701 4G running Ubuntu Netbook (10.04). I installed the system on its 4GB SSD for speed reasons - fast SD cards are expensive. I keep all user data on a fairly slow SD card. Problem is, after a few updates, I have less and less free space on the SSD. Since updating replaces old packages with newer ones, shouldn't the size remain more or less the same? I'm almost out of space and will probably have to stop updating the system soon... and yes, I do perform apt-get clean after every update. It helps, but the size is still steadily creeping upwards.

View 14 Replies View RelatedI'm wondering if anyone is having a similar issue to what I'm experiencing. openSuSE 11.2 was very fast on my system. Since installing openSuSE 11.3, I've been experiencing many short term hangs where I'll lose control of the mouse for a few seconds (usually about 2-5) and the system will do nothing. I don't have unusual load during these time periods and I don't really see any spikes during these periods. If I leave a cpu monitor active, I can see a very very light spike one core0 when it happens, but the mouse and keyboard (and seemingly the whole desktop) hang during this spike so I can't see what's causing it, if that's really the culprit.
I am almost suspecting that I'm experiencing an issue with interrupts... since it seems that everything is hanging for a few seconds, then coming back to life. It does seem to happen more often when I'm resizing or minimizing windows... but that's about all I can say as it also seems pretty random.Here's some basic info on my hardware:ASUS M3A78 Pro motherboardAMD Phenom(tm) 9950 Quad-Core ProcessorGeForce GTX 260G15 Keyboard and MX revolution mouse (just in case USB interrupts turn out to be the issue)So, is anyone else experiencing a similar issue? Maybe we can narrow down what we have in common. Oh, I'm running x86_64.
I've been looking for how to set this up in bash with no luck so far. I can change what file the history log is written to, and how much history is saved. But it only writes the saved part when bash exits. Instead, I'd like to have bash write that file continuously as each command is entered (and maybe also do an fsync(2) to flush it to disk). That way I can see the command I crashed the box with Anyone know the magical incantation for that?
But there appears to be nothing that I can find there, in the man page, or other searches, that suggest it even can do continuous.
I have Kubuntu 10.10 64-bit, which was running fine until I did a bunch of apt-get software installs to permit me to compile YaWP weather plasmoid. In the process I am now at KDE 4.6.2, and my system is now non-functional, not able to start KDE desktop.
When KDE starts I get continuous krunner segfaults, krunner is taking 100% of the CPU, the desktop is there but the system is unusable. /var/log/messages is filled with the krunner segfaults, each line further indicating "error 4 in libkio.so.5.6.0". I tried reinstalling kubuntu-desktop, problem remains.
I expect I have created some software incompatibility with my installs, but I do not know how to diagnose/resolve.

I had a working pdftotext script working and custom made a parser for the info in it, but upon moving from CentOS 5.5 to Ubuntu (version unknown) and installing poppler-utils, pdftotext works, but the rendering is different by quite a bit causing a ton of issues. I also tried on another CentOS (5.2 this time) and it rendered the same as Ubuntu. I'm trying to figure out the problem so it renders the same, I'm using the same code and everything.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've done a very simple shell script to shutdown my computer via web browser. This can be useful, because I can shut it down via my iPhone when i'm not home and a thunder storm starts. It works perfectly when I execute it after i've logged in. But I want it to be a "native" process. I want it to be executed during boot or login and it must have sudo privileges in order to halt the PC. The problem is this Script "never ends": or it receives the sign to shutdown or it starts itself again after sleeping 60 seconds. Take a look:
#!/bin/sh
# First it tries to download a "shutdown.txt" file, that is created via PHP when I send the command.
wget http://www.mydomain.com/shutdown.txt

#If he finds it, he accesses the server where the shutdown.txt is located via FTP, delete it, delete the shutdown.txt that was downloaded, and then shuts the PC down
else
ftp -n ftp.mydomain.com <<END_SCRIPT
quote USER xxxxxxx
quote PASS xxxxxx

if I put this script to run during the boot process my PC will never boot! It will shutdown, or try again. make my script work without having to manually execute it every time a use the PC.
