yes both partitions are booting.
I originally installed linux and had it working perfectly fine. (both windows and linux function perfectly! partition managers have similar problems that gparted...
So I got my new SSD. and i reimaged my windows 7 partitions into the drive.
It seems that Acronis Isn't the greatest Image restorer, and, well From what i understand, both of my partitions...
still no avail :(
I know that the thought process is crummy, thats part of the reason i was asking.
I don't want to treat my home folder like separate drives (even though thats what ill be doing), nor do I want...
can i mount my home folder in the following way?
/dev/sda5 /
/dev/sdb3 /home/Folder1
/dev/sdb3 /home/Folder2
i think this is a simple question, and some confirmation would be much...
ok so i tried doing that above commands, but they havent worked at all. instead i had trouble logging into X :/
i even tried placing the code into this file to see if it would solve the problem...
ill try doing this, but this doesnt look like a solution.
my objective is to get both cards working :(
ill get back to you guys
how would i do this?
Ive already said i deleted xorg.conf
but i already did that, removing the xorg.conf file and the noveau blacklist technically should revert the system back to normal. are you saying otherwise?
also, with liveCDs, intel compiz...
ok I'm on my intel card and i have tried to the following
remove xorg.conf
remove /etc/modprobe.d/nvidia-installer-disable-nouveau.conf (described above)
Compiz will STILL not work on the intel...
ok so i did a reinstall on a seperate drive and found where the file is. its in
/etc/modprobe.d/nvidia-installer-disable-nouveau.conf
its contents are

my concern is specifically how to get intel gfx working again.
as for the brightness issue, i fixed it with a custom xorg.conf
# This file lists those modules which we don't want to be loaded by

If you are getting consumer grade ram (not gaming grade) then it all amounts to the same speed due to CAS latency (in short, the speed of which data moves through the ram)
It almost makes no...
In suspicion that the swat-ppa screwed with the system too much, I made a new install and tested installing the nvidia driver directly. Apparently nvidia finally included a script to disable noveau...
So i did some tweaking, I CAN switch graphics cards without screwing over too hard (meaning no additional commands)
but i still cant run compiz on my intel card!
#!/bin/bash

alas compiz (and i fear everything 3D related) doesn't work at all without an xorg.conf. the generic one that was automatically made did not do anything either. (Xorg -configure gave me completely...
Ok so I tried installing the nvidia driver and my fears have come true. my intel driver no longer works correctly. This isn't a problem since i loaded off ubuntu off my external disk, but as a test i...
but you are talking about the supplied drivers. i want the up to date ones... maybe i should have mentioned that.
from the looks of it, i have to spend 5 minutes just to switch it every time. this isn't a solution, its a hassle.
yup ^^
heat and power consumption. Since optimus (a technology that uses the nvidia card only under heavy load) doesn't work on linux, i have to switch with either the nvidia card or the linux card.
When...
It has come to my understanding that ubuntu 10.10 uses noveau drivers, and they are not compatible with the propiatary nvidia drivers without screwing around with your system.
The way I understand...
