  Dual booting with Fedora 4
Posted by: halpern - 2005-11-08, 12:57 AM - Forum: Fedora Core Release 4 - No Replies

I believe I read somewhere that you can not dual boot fedora linux on an ntfs partition. Since my main drive is SATA 200gb drive (another issue) and Windows is using NTFS can I use an NTFS partition for Fedora? I would create the partition in partition magic. Also woudl there be any issues in Fedora recognizing a SATA drive during install? Thanks.

  NO MORE TIVo ?!?!?!?

it's time to "PICK UP THE PEN!!" and write your congressman (be sure to use spell check {unlike me}).

I just don't know what i would do if i lost my TIVo and i JUST bought a cable drive for my rig so i think my head might explode if this happens.

  Finally updated Nvidia drivers, but...
Posted by: hybrid - 2005-11-06, 11:21 AM - Forum: nVidia Problems - Replies (1)


Well, having upgraded to SUSE 10, I thought I would give the Nvidia drivers a go again. They installed without problem. Well, almost.

 

X works and everything, but I seem to be stuck at 1280x800 @ 60 Hz. I want to (and was running) 1280x960 @ 85 Hz before the driver update. I've tried everything I can think of in SaX2 (the SUSE graphical X config tool). Do I need to modify XF86Config, and if so, what do I change?

 

I am using a CTX VL951 19" CRT monitor. It definitely can handle 1280x960 @ 85 Hz. I've been running XP at that since I had this monitor.

 

Cheers for any help,

 

Hybrid

  IP update
Posted by: xDamox - 2005-11-06, 11:17 AM - Forum: Network Problems - Replies (4)


It's been a while since I've started a post, so I though I would ask if anyone knew of any tools

that can automatically update dyndns or no-ip.org domian if my router resets it's IP address?

 

O by the way anyweb I like how you have now allowed to specify the Opening time :) makes

it easy for anyone wants to reference off this site. :)

  suse to standardise on gnome !
Posted by: anyweb - 2005-11-06, 10:21 AM - Forum: SUSE - Replies (7)


that's right, novell suse is going to put it's energy and money into gnome

 

[/url][url=http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,1895,1882118,00.asp]http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,1895,1882118,00.asp

 

Quote:Novell is making one large strategic change. The GNOME interface is going to become the default interface on both the SLES (SuSE Linux Enterprise Server) and Novell Linux Desktop line. 

KDE libraries will be supplied on both, but the bulk of Novell's interface moving forward will be on GNOME.

 

"The entire KDE graphical interface and product family will continue to be supported and delivered on OpenSuSE," said Mancusi-Ungaro.

 

In the past, Novell had explored creating a best of breed desktop, but these efforts came to little.

  fbdesk
Posted by: enigma - 2005-11-05, 05:15 PM - Forum: Gentoo - No Replies


I've been trying to use fbdesk using the following tutorial:

 



Code:
http://fluxbox.sourceforge.net/fbdesk/




 

I get the following errors when running it:

 



Code:
elrond@rivendale ~ $ fbdesk -rc ~/.fluxbox/fbdesk
/home/elrond/.fluxbox/styles/Cthulhain
Loading: [/home/elrond/.fluxbox/fbdesk.icons]
Warning: Empty icon file, creating one icon.
Load pixmap failed! ()
Using default pixmap
Warning: Failed to save icons to file: /home/elrond/.fluxbox/fbdesk.icons
Warning: Failed to save icons to file: /home/elrond/.fluxbox/fbdesk.icons




 

As you can probably tell the tutorial is not very detailed on where this information goes, or how to set it up. From what i have gathered it all goes in the init of ~/.fluxbox/init. After doing so you add the icond to ~/.fluxbox/fbdesk.icons. The problem is it never saves or uses the actual icons you tell it to, instead it uses a default icon...

  libGL error
Posted by: enigma - 2005-11-05, 03:56 PM - Forum: Gentoo - Replies (2)


i've just emerged bzflag when running the following command as normal user:

 



Code:
/usr/games/bin/bzflag




 

its returns the following errors:

 



Code:
libGL error: open DRM failed (Operation not permitted)
libGL error: reverting to (slow) indirect rendering




 

Now on the other hand if I run the game as root, it loads everything fine and works like a charm. Just as normal user it lags like no tommorow because of the libGL issue.
