Cant install or boot into liveCD

[Sleepy]

Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee,

This is fun, its like a rollercoaster .
Ok will make shure if I get anything that ill make shure its supported. Umm When you update things like the kernel and some other system files would I have to stick that noapic command in there again? I read that sometimes it dont go smothly and at times wont find the harddrive again. Although I didnt use the all_generic_ide command when I booted into Ultimate Edition.

Thanks guys. BIG E-hug

You probably won't get a kernel update till the next version 2.2. It probably won't be out till the end of April. It will be based on Jaunty(the latest Ubuntu). If you want a sneak peek at Jaunty go here:

Eh,

I cant seem to get the updater and ultimatix working. They start to download and download but once it starts at ~500kb/s it drops slowly to a halt and times out, then gives me the timed out giving up message and starts the next one.

what can I do about this?

thanks guys

FYI, I have an old linksys LAN card on it, no LAN on mobo but it installed driver for it and I can surf web and stuff but updater wont download.

Ok another thing,

How do I go about installing nvidia drivers? I tried their method of installing it and it said file could not be found.. or something like that

It was a 'sh' command and then the file name.

Thanks

Go to Hardware Drivers and install the recommended one.
Hit Ctrl Alt F1
type sudo nvidia-xconfig
Hit Ctrl Alt F7
You may have to hit Ctrl Alt Backspace
Then Ctrl Alt F7 again

i used envyng to load my drivers.That way if i muff it up(im always messing with my ati drivers for some reason)
I can sudo envyng -t to load drivers from a command prompt.Envyng will load ati and nvidia drivers.I dont think you will find envyng under app's,so you will have to go in a terminal and type this:


sudo envyng

then choose a option.let it load driver.then reboot.

or........just use the restricted drivers under system>administration>hardware drivers.(the real easy way)

I don't recommend going to nvidia's web site for the driver unless you really know what you are doing.
