Cannot Set Up Multiple Monitors With J5create VGA Display Adapter

Hey just signed up after lurking for a bit.

I'm using Mint 17.1 and following the advice in this post to solve my missing menu problem which worked fine.

http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...5/#post4234891

But now after using Code:

mv ~/.config ~/.config.org

my FPS in a steam game went down from 70 to 30.

I did some re-installations in my package manager, but the FPS still sucks.

Reinstalled the following packages:

I also re-downloaded the game as well to make sure it set a new configuration file if it needed to.

I have a debian OS on a partition on my hard disk (sda1).
There was no sound because the ati rs880/radeon 4200 sound card needed drivers which were only in the debian 'non-free' version'.
So I added the non-free version to my install and also had to make a change to the GRUB bootloader file.
After that, I got sound.

Now I've installed a new debian distro to my second partition - sda2.
This time I ensured I installed the debian non-free version.
But I'm having trouble installing the drivers for the sound card.

I go into Synaptic package manager to install the relevant drivers and it gives me an error message:
Code:

Configuring libfglrx - install Fglrx driver despite unsupported graphics card?

I'm not sure what that means because I want the drivers for my sound card - not graphics.
When I press the 'Help' button, it says:
Code:

This system has a graphics card which is no longer handled by the Fglrx driver...
The above card requires either the non-free legacy Fgrlx driver 
(package fgrlx-legacy-driver) or the free Radeon driver (package xserver-xorg-video-radeon).

This is fine because I can just install the 'free Radeon driver'.

But the Help message then says:
Code:

Before the Radeon driver can be used you must remove Fglrx configuration from xorg.conf 
(and xorg.conf.d/)
Note that switching to the free Radeon driver requires the fglrx-driver package to be purged (not just removed).

So now I don't know what to do. Has anyone had this error message?
I know I can enable sound and have no problems with the graphics card because that's what happened with my original install on sda1.

But with the install on sda2, I don't know how to approach this problem.
Can anyone help please?

Hey guys. So I just went out and bought a Sager 8268-s (clevo p150sm-a) With an i7 4910mq and a Nvidia 980m gt. As I am a computer tech by trade, every time i see Windows i get horrible PTSD so i decided to try Linux instead. After many hours of trying to get a dual boot working finally got Linux Mint 17 Cinnamon installed on my computer, but when I went to install the Nvidia driver it landed me in fallback mode which I could not escape. So then I tried Ubuntu 14.04 LTS thinking maybe Mint was incompatible with the driver and the same thing happened.

So here is my method:

(sorry i don't know how to make a code box :/ )

First I log in to get root access:

$ su

Then I Update the xorg:

$ sudo apt-add-repository ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa

Then update my system:

$ sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

Then i go into Virtual terminal (Ctrl+Alt+F1) and disable the display manager:

$ sudo service mdm (or lightdm for Ubuntu) stop

Then i install the drivers which i have done multiple ways:

$ sudo apt-get install nvidia-current nvidia-settings

or

$ sudo apt-get install nvidia-343 nvidia-settings

or by downloading the driver from Nvidia (first designating the file as executable)

$ sudo sh nvidia.run && sudo apt-get install nvidia-settings

Then after install, I create the config file:

$ sudo nvidia-xconfig

Then I reboot. After I get the low res mode in Ubuntu or fallback mode in Mint and Driver manager doesn't detect any proprietary drivers and I have to reinstall to get the OS working again. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I use Redhat 6.3 , when I install run "yum install vsftpd" , it pops the following error, does it mean the library is not support , I have to update the kernel ? thanks

I am trying to install tilp, a program for the link between a computer and a Texas Instruments calculator. I have downloaded all the packages to a local directory. I tried telling yum to install all the packages at the same time, though, the dependencies still fail to resolve (though they are all in the directory).

I don't know if it would be safe to force install without the dependencies (even though I would install them later).

Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thank you,

I am working on LAR protocol, ns2 version = 2.32
OS = ubuntu 12.04

i successfully installed LAR NS on my system . but nam does not qork with ns-2.32 . so i tried to install with the following command

sudo make install nam ===> it successfully installed namv1.15 . but when i run box.tcl it is giving me the following error

SORTING LISTS ...DONE!
channel.cc:sendUp - Calc highestAntennaZ_ and distCST_
highestAntennaZ_ = 1.5, distCST_ = 220.0
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

then i tried to remove the nam with this command sudo apt-get remove nam ==> removed
then i installed this nam from (nam_1.14_amd64.deb) . when i write nam it shows me network animator window v1.14 but segmentataion fault error remains the same .

I also tried to install nam-1.14.i586.tar.gz , first untar it and then the following command sudo cp nam /usr/local/bin but still the error .
i also tried with nam-1.14-x86_64.tar.gz but still no success.

if i dont use nam , then my box file runs successfully.
plz suggest me how to rectify this error.

Hello all,
I'm having real trouble trying to get SVN 1.8.9 installed on a linux box which is now my responsibility to look after, I think it is centos or scientific linux.
EDIT: it is Scientific Linux release 6.4 (Carbon)

What I've done so far: SVN 1.6 was installed and working fine. I installed smartsvn so that I had a 'nice' GUI to look at the repos on the machine. Smartsvn then upgraded my repos. The svn client on the command line does not work with the upgraded repos. I tried yum install svn but the latest svn is already installed (1.6). I then installed 1.7 from source and still that version was too old. I then installed 1.8.9 from source - yey this worked locally fine. There are cron jobs that run and use the svn client to push to an svn server The SVN I installed from source does not commit properly and gives this error:
svn: E170000: Unrecognized URL scheme for 'http://.....' I googled around and found I need to install svn with configure --with-serf option. This fails as the SVN install needs serf 1.2.1 or newer. So I install serf 1.3.something from an rpm. That installs fine and I retry the configure step but it fails giving the same error. rpm -ql serf returns: /usr/lib/libserf-1.so
/usr/lib/libserf-1.so.1
/usr/lib/libserf-1.so.1.3.0
So I think 1.3 is installed...?
Does anyone know how to make the configure step of svn know where serf is? --with-serf=/usr/lib/ did not work at all for me.

Thanks for any help and I'm happy to post more information.

Cheers
