Hi
I have a strange problem. Maybe you faced it already.
I had problems with my nvidia geforce 8600 card, I changed it for a 7300 one. I have a correct DVI connection now.
Till I changed the card I did sereval installations . MythTV worked but I could not use the CD/DVD drive which is the computer to watch DVD movies. Then I have no optical drive in my menu and I can only watch DVD movies if I switch to KDE.
MythTV does not work. It worked in the installations I did before but this time I get errors about loading the #37 mythtv player and the #28 Disc Drive [apparently the dvd drive].
How can I fix it without re-installing everything?
Thank you for your help
Serge

Hi
Thank you for your answer.
After many tries, I ended by making it work just through the vga connector. Every try I made with the dvi/hdmi connexion ended by a failure. So for the while I will stick to that port till I change for a 7300 card instead. What is still amazing is that all the installation [kubuntu and LinuxMCE-7.10Beta3] was made through the dvi port. I did not use the vga plug at all....

LinuxMCE / Installation issues / NVIDIA 8600GT

Hi everybody
I am facing a strange problem.
I have a nvidia 8600 gt card. After having installed Kubuntu 7.10 and and the nvidia driver, I could get a 1280 X 720 resolution. After having installed LinuxMCE 7.10 Beta3, the AVwizard probably starts but I cannot see anything but a blue screen. In a new console [alt+F2 e.g], if I run startx, I get the kde desktop but at a 640 x 400 resolution. I know that the AVWizard is running [through the blue screen] After all changes I tried I was thrown back to the 640 x 400 resolution. In other words LinuxMCE does not accept any resolution except the 640 x 400 resolution.
I have an hybrid system hooked to a LCD TV by the dvi plug.
Do you have any idea to get the kubuntu resolution?
thank you for help

Hi everybody
I have installed linuxMCE 7.10Beta3 just as a core-only system. Actually this kind of system is not the one i need for the while and instead of re-installing everything I would like to know if it is possible to make my system hybrid, and above all I would like to know how I can make this change.
Thank you for your help
Serge
