Please tell me how you made Nvidia GeForce 4200 Ti to work because I'm having issues using this graphic card
I install latest nvidia drivers and switch from "nv" to "nvidia" driver and then X fails to start

I have LCD 1280x1024 display. Here is my xorg.conf - http://fpaste.org/paste/768

Any help is appreciated.

Hi,
I tested ATI Radeon 9600 but have no luck with it because. I installed latest fglrx drivers and LinuxMCE UI still doesn't work with it (except the simple UI).

When testing video capabilities of video card with this guide:
http://wiki.linuxmce.org/index.php/Graphics_Test
Masking works but when I try compositing video testing app just crashes.

I made new wiki entry:
http://wiki.linuxmce.org/index.php/ATI_Radeon-9600-AGP

Is there a hope of getting this video card working with UI2?

Chould I report a bug? Troubleshoot some more (how)? Give up?

Is there any hope this card will work better in new LinuxMCE 0810?

Any tips/tricks appreciated.

Hi guys,
I'm also looking at testing the new LinuxMCE so I would like to ask you who are doing it now to please update the wiki with some tips&tricks (it needed) so that the rest of us can also give it a shot and skip over any caveats.

Cheers,
Valent.

Is there some FAQ expaining what all is changed and why some things like iptables are chenged, how pluto software affects all other linux subsystems, etc...

There are some great tips here:
http://linuxmce.wordpress.com/

that would be great for users to see also in the wiki, like how to custom partition the hard drive...

Does LinuxMCE use some other mechanism other than iptables for firewall?

My understanding was if I flush all iptables rules it would be the same as turning it off from web interface. Why am I wrong?

I found it myself 10 minutes after posting the question
I know the security issue, but I'm behind a NAT and openning the firewall posts no security issue for me.

But I was puzzled why when I flushed manually iptables rules the firewall still functioned! How is that possible?

Hi, I need to connect via ssh to my core but I cant. I tried pinging it and I get no reply. I have ktorrent running with web interface and can only connect it from core not from other laptop in my LAN. Why?

Core has two LAN cards;
eth0 - 10.10.1.1/24 that has nothing connected to it and has DHCP service ready to assing IP adreses
eth1 - 192.168.5.5 - the IP it how automatically from ADSL modem/router that it  is connected to.

I have other laptop (192.168.5.7) connected to same ADSL router but over over wireless.

When I ping laptop from core I get the response, when I ping core from the laptop I get no response.

I start ssh on core and on the laptop, and I can connect from core to laptop but I can't connect from laptop to core.

I tried deleting all iptables firewall rules with:
iptables --flush
iptables --table nat --flush
iptables --delete-chain
iptables --table nat --delete-chain

but I still can't ping or connect via ssh to core from my local LAN.

How can I fix this?

Cheers,
Valent.

Set it up from the mythtv-setup in the computing screen.

I installed mythtv package, it looks like it was missing. Now I have mythtv-setup so I'll play around with that.

Valent.

Hi again,

You can add any apps you like to the Computing menu... see here;

All the best

I don't get this tutorial (and I'm not a newbie), what are you supposed to do after you get WM_CLASS property. This wiki page seams unfinished and unclear. I got that WM_CLASS property but where do I enter it?

Hi Valent,

The failure on deb.linuxmce.com is normal dont worry about it.

Ctrl + Alt + F2 (or other Fn keys) will open a Term session for you... just enter your password and then use sudo as normal etc.

look here for info on support for your DVB card under Linux; http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/DVB-T_Devices

All the best

Andrew

Thank you Andrew. I know about VT1-6 but I'm asking if there is a way to start konsole or xterm from LinuxMCE gui somehow?

I don't see my gigabyte card nowhere on linuxtv.org but as soon as I get it working I'll update their wiki pages.

Cheers,
Valent.

Hi Zaerc, thank you for your answer. Sorry for being too vague, I'll try to explain all the details.

I roamed the forums and I saw suggestions of using mythtv-setup but to my surprise I from terminal I didn't find any myth execfiles. I tied typing "my" and then hitting TAB key to get all the mythtv exec files but I got none! I also tried with "sudo my" and "sudo myth" +TAB and also nothing.

Then I thought that maybe during the instal I failed somehow to install mythtv component.

That is why I tried to check this with "apt-get update" and then "apt-get install mythtv"

But I also got stuck emediatly with apt-get update showing me errors...

How can I check that I have installed all necessary mythtv files? Sorry for this lame question but I primarily use fedora and don't know the apt-get way of things so much

Cheers,
Valent.

Any suggestion how to test my dvb tv tuner? I see from dmesg output that it is recognised but LinuxMCE wizard doesn't show it...

Strange.
