**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sun Jun 27 02:59:56 2010 Jun 27 03:13:46 is it possible to install the meego gui over my existing distro? Jun 27 03:14:48 i have tried about 10 times all different ways and STILL cannot get meego to boot Jun 27 03:15:28 as far as i get is the grub screen now. occasionally randomly i get a boot menu. otherwise i only get the graphical background Jun 27 03:15:52 and somehow behind that all meego IS booting because my hdd is at work AND my sound clicks and initializes Jun 27 03:16:06 mint: did you follow the hardware requirements? Jun 27 03:16:29 thats my next question Jun 27 03:16:35 * TSCHAKeee facepalms Jun 27 03:16:47 nobody reads. Jun 27 03:16:48 im on a dv6700 with an 8400m. (core2) Jun 27 03:16:53 i did read Jun 27 03:17:11 i assumed my pc was too good and wouldnt have any problems Jun 27 03:17:22 * TSCHAKeee thwaps mint upside the head Jun 27 03:17:39 mint: Atom Nxxx CPUs, with Intel GPU. Jun 27 03:17:48 mint: that is what MeeGo is designed for. Jun 27 03:18:25 well people told me, in this channel, yesterday, anything x86 compatible is fine Jun 27 03:18:43 and said given my hardware i should have no problems Jun 27 03:19:00 so false information Jun 27 03:19:02 ok thank you Jun 27 03:19:07 TSCHAKeee: actually, core2 should be fine Jun 27 03:19:21 w00t_: it is most likely his GPU Jun 27 03:19:36 20 bucks it is ATI or NVIDIA Jun 27 03:19:40 which will not work OOTB Jun 27 03:20:41 right, my point was more directed to the "atom CPUs with intel GPU" -- indicating that nothing else was usable :) Jun 27 03:20:46 ok. i was hoping to boot to a terminal and install my nvidia drivers. would it be worth me attempting to get that far. then chucking on proper video drivers and booting x Jun 27 03:21:19 mint: you can of course try it, if you want Jun 27 03:21:20 you could try. Jun 27 03:21:27 a few people on the ML have done pretty much that in the past Jun 27 03:22:51 ok so if it has booted correctly, wheather i get a picture or not, i should be able to ctrl-alt-f1. then kill x and install drivers? Jun 27 03:22:56 because atm i cant even do that Jun 27 03:23:26 tbh.. I don't know. I haven't had to do much meego hacking in the past few weeks.. but I'd presume so, yeah Jun 27 03:23:34 btw: you shouldn't be *getting* a grub screen Jun 27 03:23:43 meego doesn't use it Jun 27 03:23:53 so i'd presume something is screwed with the bootloader install Jun 27 03:24:03 but it does boot Jun 27 03:24:23 im sure it does i hear my sound card click, my laptop sound lights change color and my hdd works for about 15 seconds Jun 27 03:24:41 mm Jun 27 03:24:52 not sure what to suggest there Jun 27 03:24:57 you know what Jun 27 03:25:06 im probably mad trying to installl meego on my laptop anyway Jun 27 03:25:16 thanks guys Jun 27 03:25:22 not so mad .. really :) Jun 27 03:25:28 chroot is probably the easier route to go though Jun 27 09:26:59 can I install meego on N900? Jun 27 09:29:04 kkb110: if you want no UI, or features, like calling - yes - there's a meego core image which has just an xterm Jun 27 09:29:57 Robot101: oh.. it's too sad that there is no completely working meego on N900 D: Jun 27 09:30:16 kkb110: no meego handset UI has been released publically yet Jun 27 09:30:26 kkb110: the reference UI has been delayed Jun 27 09:30:27 I see. thank you Jun 27 10:35:12 Morning, all Jun 27 10:35:22 morning jaffa Jun 27 10:43:32 afternoon all Jun 27 10:47:16 afternoon kkb110 Jun 27 10:48:36 looks like i am here for greeting every one :) Jun 27 10:49:24 good, maybe that can be your second job, greeting every person in this channel :) (don't forget to say goodbye) Jun 27 11:36:49 hi w00t Jun 27 11:37:00 Hi Jun 27 11:51:55 sweets + hot car + 3 years = mess Jun 27 15:51:13 lol someone should have told me moblin is in the ubuntu repo's Jun 27 15:51:37 you mean the ubuntu moblin remix?
