Instructions for switching from intel to nvidia:
1) install "nvidia-current"

I just got mine today. I have the switchable graphics. Intel works but it doesn't switch to nvidia. Seems like that support is not going to happen.
If you go into the bios you can force it to...
Hey all,
I recently upgraded to 10.10 from 10.04. I have an ATI Radeon 3870 video card. Before the upgrade, I was using the radeonhd driver.
After the upgrade, I tried fglrx, radeon, radeonhd,...
Hey guys, just tossing in my experience:
I was able to install 9.10 off a USB stick. BUT I had to make the usb stick from another ubuntu machine (generate usb boot disk). Unetbootin did not work...
Thanks sedawk. I plan on moving it all to 443, just wanted to handle one problem at a time.
I have tried using mod_proxy, but I am having trouble. My VHosts look like this:

Hey guys,
First off, I am not trying to tunnel vnc to my home computer. I cannot use an SSH tunnel. That said, here is my issue:

I got the DV5T over labor day weekend. Had a 30% off coupon so I got an awesome deal.
The 5100 wireless and graphics had trouble in hardy, so I went for intrepid, which got everything going...
I tried using both nasm and yasm from the repos, and x264 would compile but it would say it was building without support for yasm and nasm.
Then, when I used it to convert a file it would say that...
Great guide. Thanks a lot. One problem:
When I configure x264 I get the error:
./configure --enable-pthread --enable-mp4-output --enable-shared
No suitable assembler found. x264 will be...
See my previous post. This guide is dead. If you want compositing effects, upgrade to feisty and follow the more official and less hack-ish methods.
Hey zaxor0, this guide is no longer alive. You can use the restricted drivers manager to install fglx in feisty, then use "Desktop Effects" under System->Preferences to use Compiz (which is like...
Wow there is a lot of weird stuff going on there.
According to your Xorg.conf, you have two screens:
Monitor+ati driver+ati screen
Monitor+fglrx driver+fglrx screen
I really doubt that...
I am currently running Feisty 7.04, and you can install compiz through the ubuntu repos. I am using compiz and the open-source radeon driver which all works without any extra configuration, since...
grab the ati driver installer from here:

Then follow these instructions:...
it needs to have the / at the beginning. Copy and paste it from the howto.
Also, for the linux-restricted-modules, you have to use a backquote ` not a single quote ' to do the `uname -r` thing to...
The white screen you mentioned at the end is it. It is "working". Right now the beryl developers need to fix some bugs, but once they do, the white screen will turn into functioning beryl.
newagelancelot: The packages are broken. You are at the best point that the rest of us could get to. This is a very new problem. The previous versions worked using this guide, but it is currently...
@Brooklyn: yes.
I won't resist you :D. If anything you are offering a solution. I was just trying to prevent 8 billion messages like this:
"WTF I uz this guide and I get white box?! ur guide sox!"
I am back to...
PLEASE READ THIS POST

Of course, if...

currently both SVN and stable are non-functioning (as of noon or so on 2/20/07). Please refrain from posting with problems until the next svn release.
If you learn about cronjobs, it is worth it. You have to edit a text file, but you can schedule tasks to be run at specific times. Then you just put in a command to run:

sudo depmod -a
sudo modprobe fglrx
