raider360 Share Posted May 16, 2005 I see Ubuntu is really popular last time :) I have a CD-box version of Ubuntu. In the small box there are 2 cd's inside: livecd & install cd. On LiveCD we have preinstalled apps and Gnome But on InstallCD, after finishing all setup process I'll get only shell without any window manager :p I need manually download kde/gnome and then setup it manually too? :) Link to post Share on other sites

subpt Share Posted May 16, 2005 I'm unsure about Ubuntu itself but usually in 2.6.xx kernels with alsa drivers you just need to unmute "analog out" on alsamixer. Did you do that? (note: if you have more than 1 sndcard (onboard+audigy?) use "alsamixer -c *card number". Link to post Share on other sites
raider360 Share Posted May 16, 2005 nope GNOME sets up in the INSTALL :D 585928083[/snapback] I've solve the problem (asked at irc ubuntu chat) For some reasons, my "X" is not been installed. So I am: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop now all ok :happy: And I have more troubles :p 1st: Can't configure my Internet Connection. I am using VPN in Windows. So, at Linux I've installed pppto packet, but I don't know, where I need to enter my server/username/password, etc. 2nd: Can't make 100Hz refresh rate to my monitor. I am configured at console x11config but I don't know what horizontal/vertical sync to enter :) Oh. And I think, I need to ask this at ubuntuforums ;) Link to post Share on other sites
