| Asasin | Second question... It's a tablet notebook, does Ubuntu/Kubuntu support that at all? Any software available that you know of? It's got a keyboard and stuff, I'd just like to be able to take notes or write (not use virtual keyboards or anything) |

| rukuartic | Hi there, can someone explain the difference between linux-headers* and linux-source* to me? |
| Asasin | Wow, Pelo thanks a lot |
| Pelo | Asasin, your best bet for hardware questions it to search th forum for models and make to see if other ppl have had trouble or comments |
| IGxMyzt | Does anyone know if an ATI Radeon 9200/9250 can run 3D stuff like beryl? |
| Asasin | Ok, thanks. |
| jscinoz | Hey guys, is this a software or hardware problem: when my my CPU or GPU come under max load (specifically when i use both beryl and firefox at the same time, or when i run any 3d intensive app (games)) i get extreme image artifacts all over my screen and my system halts requiring a hard reboot. so basically i need to know is this software or hardware, and if it's software how can i fix/lessen the problem? |
| TpyoKnig | IGxMyzt i can get my Xpress 200M to run Compiz so u should have no problems ;) |
| k1gwb | Is there a GTK package for ubuntu? Can't find it in the repositiories....and the dependencies are the epitome of hell |
| Pelo | IGxMyzt, youcan use beryl or compiz with ati radon cards you jsut need xgl , ask in #beryl or #ubuntu-effects |
| pooyak | Feral_Kid, I guess you should create database and stuff yourself and do a webbased configuration. but I'm not sure. take a look at this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=14062&page=2 |
| Jaboia | IGxMyzt, I think so yes, but you will probably find yourself running the open source radeon driver (which is good if you dont play games) or the fglrx driver with XGL |
| IGxMyzt | TpyoKnig: How do you get good drivers? The standard runs it laggy, the closed-source makes it not work at all Jab: The ATI fglrx wouldn't run games right, and i want to play them and use beryl |
| pooyak | Feral_Kid, sorry that was the second page. here is the first: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=14062 |
| Pelo | jscinoz, turn on the system monitor and perform the offending proceedure then check the system monitor to see what is eating up al your resources |
| TpyoKnig | IGxMyzt no berylcompiz with ATI+games |
| hilts50 | Anyone with macbook pro 7.04 expertise? |
| Jaboia | if you use XGL with fglrx you will need to boot into a session with xgl disabled before you play games |
| jscinoz | alright, i'll get you the results in 10-20 minutes depending on how long it takes to reboot after. |
| IGxMyzt | Jaboia: Explain? |
| Jaboia | If you want to play games you will need fglrx |
| k1gwb | gnome tool kit, anyone? gtk package for ubuntu? :-/ |
| action | Pelo will get answers to his own questions , someday, someone will help him , sniff |

| k1gwb | haha, what was your question pelo? |
| rukuartic | k1gwb: apt-cache search gtk |
| Pelo | k1gwb, gtk 2.0 is part fo the default install |
| Jaboia | And you can use fglrx with Beryl/compiz, but only if you use XGL |
| IGxMyzt | !XGL|IGxMyzt |
| Pelo | I need to know in which crontab file I put my new lines for them to work, apparently I'm not editing the correct one |
| Jaboia | When i played games with ATI I had two "sessions" set up in GDM. One with XGL disabled and one enabled. I logged into the one with XGL disabled when I needed to play games |
| irishman20020 | hey... ummm... i broke my x by trying to remove envy (nvidia driver updater) and use the ubuntu supported nvidia drivers |
| mister_roboto | Pelo: huh? for your own uid? |
| k1gwb | oh, I've not got any experience with contab, sorry :) |
| irishman20020 | anyone know how to correct this? |
| Pelo | IrishDave, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg |
| hilts50 | Help getting the xserve to work on a macbook while booted to the live cd. |
| IGxMyzt | Jaboia: what card did you have? My driver lags really bad with 3D |
