Can't load GUI with Ubuntu 5.10 breezy
Hi,
here's my little problem. I installed Ubuntu 5.10 Breezy and everything went fine until it tried to load Xserver (thats's the graphical interface right?). It gives me an error and says to go on wiki.X.rg but there I've found nothing which could help me. You guys are my last hope.. I have Samsung SyncMaster 753DF and ATI Radeon X800GTO. I even tried to launch live CD verson but the same error comes up and I don't know what to do. |
You'll need to supply the error as well.
I see you have suse on your distribution list, what was the outcome of running sax on this graphics card? |
I don't have suse anymore but it worked fine...when I try to load and get an error how to copy the error text? because now I'm in windows...
|
Here this is the message I get:
Code:
Using config file: "/Xorg.0.log" sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and there i put my resolution and frequency and when it finished I tiped startx but the same error came so I'm back at the beggining... Please help |
Most likely the problem is an incorrect video driver or incorrect monitor settings.
To change the video driver, type: Code:
sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf After that, try "startx" and see if it works. If not, re-run "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" and make sure the resolution and refresh rate you select is within the range supported by the monitor. |
tnx a lot m8...that solved my problem
There are few more things and I don't wan't to open a new topic so I'll just post it here: i downloaded rp-pppoe 3.7.tar.gz and transfered it to linux but when I tried to install it compiling the source i got the message that there is no C compiler installed...So where can I found a C compiler and install it? |
You could try:
Code:
sudo apt-get install build-essential |
from a installation DVD or from disk (some folder) ?
|
I did as you said... I installed th packages and then the utlity for pppoe...after that I typed pppoe-setup and put everything as it should but when I try pppoe-start "TIMED OUT".. Why? :confused: maybe because the utility i downloaded is 3.7 and not 3.5 as it says in ubuntu guide but I wasn't able to find 3.5 anywhere
|
Why not use pppoe that comes with ubuntu? Just do:
Code:
sudo apt-get install pppoe Code:
apt-cache search pppoe |
somehow I did with SUDO PPPOECONF...it's working now though I can't read NTFS partitions... it's saying I do not have permissions.. I tried to mount it with sudo and it says it's already mounted bud I can't open any of them
