See http://wiki.linuxmce.org/index.php/Display_Drivers and install the right nvidia legacy driver for your card.

Ok, I have searched for this answer for the last couple days and have come up short.
I am bringing this thread back because it is the closest to my problem.
I am attempting to install LinuxMCE on a HP Desktop with an integrated ATI Xpress 200 video card.
After the installation it boots to the AVWizard: Failed to setup X screen.
I have the computer NIC plugged into my router but it will not update drivers or apt-get update or anything pertaining to the internet. I tried to ping www.yahoo.com and it came back unknown or something of the sort.

Anyway, problem is, How can I get these ATI drivers off my USB flash drive and onto the computer? I can't find a way to navigate to that drive using the command screen by pressing alt+f2 and I'm kind of stuck at this point.
If I have looked over a page with the answer someone please point me in the right direction as I know how annoying multiple posts of the same question can be, I am a very avid forum user myself.

Thanks

If you know those commands off the top of your head that would be great. I tried to mount it once but I don't know that I had the correct commands.

Also, the file is a .run file. Will it execute and install from what I have or do I need to somehow convert it to a .exe?

Thanks

Ok, get e terminal session up.
Become root using

Code Select Expand

sudo su
when prompted enter your linuxmce password for the user linuxmce (you created this at install time)
Next plug in your USB stick. Run dmesg after about 5 seconds to see what device it was assigned:

Code Select Expand

dmesg
Should get an output like this:

Code Select Expand

usb 1-2: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 21
usb 1-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice

You see here the "sdc1"

Now create a dir to mount the stick on:

Code Select Expand

mkdir -p /mnt/stick
Now mount the stick:

Code Select Expand

mount /dev/sdc1 /mnt/stick
Of course use the drive letter sdx
Now cd to that directory:

Code Select Expand

cd /mnt./stick
And run your app:

Code Select Expand

./application.name.run
If this does not run you may need to change the permissions to executable:

Code Select Expand

chmod +x application.name.run

Thats it.

Regards,


Seth
