Pee into the Wind...
Hope nobody has a problem with me asking this here, but I am facing an issue with Gparted.It shows my entire hard disk as unallocated.This happened only after I created a separate /home partition.Now I wanna edit some partitions but I can't do it.
Have tried both the LiveCD and normal installer in Ubuntu.
Any help.?

Once again, I screwed up.@gautham:I found ur monitor's horizontal and vertical frequencies in a google cache of manufacturer's site:
*209.85.173.104/search?q=cache:PJUq...ac713.htm+Acer+AC713&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd=1&gl=in
and
*www.acernotebooks.co.uk/Acer_AC713_17_Inch_CRT_Screen_ES.C0408.010/version.asp
you have to edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf section "monitor" to look as below.if the system detected the frequencies,then fine.
save this and do a "sudo telinit 1" and when reached runlevel 1,press CTRL+D to have the system booting to normal.Code:Section "Monitor" Identifier "AC713" HorizSync [B][U]30.0-72.0[/U][/B] VertRefresh [B][U]50.0-160.0[/U][/B] Option "DPMS" EndSection
always useful for hw detection if u install "read-edid" package.anyways,now u dont need as u got the details.
aah!download manager?the one i can say is wget in CLI
and GTransferManager
The login says Xorg won't load due to some problem(which I forgot) in the "Generic Monitor". I then logged in via commandline, and did
sudo vi /etc/X11/xorg.conf
then I went to the area I had edited and noticed one thing: the place you had asked me to make a change initially had "Generic Monitor" instead of AC713. And when the word was changed, the section below still had "Generic Monitor" in the monitor option. I guess this is the reason for the conflict.
I tried to change the value there, and did ctrl+s a couple of times, but I don't know how vi works. I restarted via the restart button, logged into windows, and now I am posting this.
So finally, I have this question:
1. How do I save in vi and how do I exit in vi ?
2. Should I change the "AC713" back to "generic monitor" ?
3. Will doing so result in once again my being able to boot graphically ?
4. I saw a line in xorg.conf in the begening instructions that said that a certain command whose name I forgot, will regenerate xorg.conf automatically. should I do it ?
another question: how do I boot via Damn Small Linux Live CD ? Does it directly load GUI ? What about Knoppix ? All I saw in knoppix was a bunch of options at the bottom of the screen. I am asking because I need to go live in order to rescue my system.

^dont regenarate the wrong xorg.conf by dexconf.
u shudve used nano for editing.and did u edited as "sudo vim"? u need to do this if u dont like to add sudo to every command.
when Ubuntu boots and finishes with that blue message stating X error,press CTRL+ALT+F1 to login with ur username and password.
now,
do:
"sudo su -"
now u'll get a "#" terminal or root terminal.
there u can edit with nano or vi(VIM)
you can edit as I suggested and save in nano(use nano -w filename) by pressing CTRL+O and CTRL+X.
In vi/vim,edit by pressing "i" and press ESC when finishes.then press ":" and type "wq" enter.thats it!
oh yes! and use whatever is in the place be it "generic monitor" etc.
u can fire up X in terminal after finished editing and exit.by running

negative. I use feisty, and your list is for gutsy.
But I guess I can manually remove multiple entries from the list.
and yes, the driver currently listed is "i810" instead of "intel" like yours. Should I edit that too and change it ?

I am still lazy to install gutsy. When my feisty is perfect, why switch to gutsy ?^no;not commercial driver.it is intel's beta mod-setting driver's which is used in Debian Sid which inturn is used in gutsy and hardy.

Besides, I need a software to automatically back up a list of all software/packages I have in feisty, to back up all files in the home directories, all in a CD or DVD, then after clean installing gutsy, restore them to their appropriate places. Any way to do that ?
ray|raven
Think Zen.
I dont think the packages will be compatible.
Gutsy and Feisty might be using different versions of libraries,
like GTK+ etc.
Best you make a list and download versions for gutsy.
And yeah you're right, Its hard to upgrade when you got everything set up like you want it.
Thats the reason,I'm still postponing my upgrade too.
I'm still on Zenwalk 4.6 while latest release is 5.0
Not much of a problem with apps as i compile most of em

I have some problems with torrents on my machine - They are Damn Slow. Here is the intro:
I have Deluge and Azherus along with BitTorrent(the default thing).
I think I am going to get rid of the last two.
I have lokkit for firewall configuration. Any basic operations tut will be welcome. And I also installed gnome-lokkit, but it doesn't work. Any other GUI other than Gnome-Lokkit or the ncurses-lokkit ?
I have Clam-Tk, but I think it somehow screwed up. I can't scan files, as it asks me to update database, but when I try it, I get no effect. So I need a better frontendfor Clam-AV. Also, Clam-Tk's shortcut in applications menu was accidently deleted, and I forgot its launch code. Can anyone tell me ? And does Avast Linux version have an advantage over Clam AV ? I need a scanner that can effectively scan my open ports, and I need maximum security there, as I intend to make my system as hack proof as possible.
I have heard of several problems in WindowsXP, which make it bad for downloads from P2P by default. Are there similar problems in Ubuntu 7.04 ? Because I am getting a similar speed in both Ubuntu 7.04 and WindowsXP.
And none of the download managers the users here have suggested have the Reliability and Versatility of FlashGet. For an OS mainly popular in Servers, this is indeed surprising and rather annoying.

first do a "sudo apt-get remove --purge gnome-lokkit libgtk1.2"
remember the golden rule "Dont install gtk1.2 old libs in ur distro" `coz it is buggy
and as for torrents,didja have the connection in bridge mode?ie,where u dials from Ubuntu to connect to broadband?(pon dsl-provider)

please explain the second part ?first do a "sudo apt-get remove --purge gnome-lokkit libgtk1.2"
remember the golden rule "Dont install gtk1.2 old libs in ur distro" `coz it is buggy
and as for torrents,didja have the connection in bridge mode?ie,where u dials from Ubuntu to connect to broadband?(pon dsl-provider)
anyway, forget removing libgtk1.2... I will have to get rid of Audacity for that
Code:

gautham@Gautham-Linux:~$PS: and thanks for that link to linuxtracker on another thread. I used it to download Parted Magic 2.0 CD, which my friend wanted, and I can say that my torrents DO have high speeds. I can download it @ 181 kbps.
and yes, azureus still crashes
Code:
gautham@Gautham-Linux:~$ azureus
changeLocale: *Default Language* != English (India). Searching without country..
changeLocale: Searching for language English in *any* country..
changeLocale: no message properties for Locale 'English (India)' (en_IN), using 'English (default)'

@gowtham:as for azureus,remove
rm -rf ~/.azureus directory as the option.
and btw,this is in BTS of ubuntu:
*bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/azureus/+bug/71220
read through the comments for some idea.
BTW,
I am using Azureus 3.xxx which is downloaded,extracted to /usr/local/ directory.
reconfigured it to remove the vuze cr@p to look like 2.5.xx look.
It works better without crashing I'll say
but in uptodate Ubuntu gutsy,audacity uses gtk2 see the deps:
libwxbase2.6-0 libwxgtk2.6-0
also if ur adventarous,u can compile Audacity gtk2 and install in ur feisty else try for a backport of audacity gtk2 version.
personally I dont like gtk1.2 menace as it is inconsistent and frequently crashes.
