Giddeon Oh

Ok telling me all hunkydory after installing that.. all current etc etc.. so guess here goes nothing Thank again Darren, seem to be the only one who knows tis sort of thing,.

OK... maybe someone can tell me now why SL V.2 is saying my system isnt the required.. required is something like PIII, 1.5 Ghz, 1 gig ram, nvidia 6 series, 32 bit Linux, etc etc... I have Pentium Dual Core E2200,2.2Ghz, 2GB Ram, Nividia 8 series card, just downlaoded drivers for it for Linux.. running latest Ubuntu, and have crap loads of space because I just destoryed my black screened Vista OS and partition. Why is telling me SL cant run. and all grey and laggy and crap.. skype, all other web browsing .. even faster than vista... what am I missing here?

OK will try the Lib. trick..awesome.. ened up forsaking all my data and deleting the MS OS partition, so found the space for the propritary drivers,.,. do I need to make them install.. or just downloaded now so will install?

The V2. trick hasnt gotten Phoenix to work.. but it itself DID work.. even though it said I had insufficient system capacity or something.. didnt meet the minimum requirements... though my mahcine most certainly does.. and in Vista ran SL very smoothly in mdedium graphics, with some feature such as avatar details and objects bumped to max... not sure why that is, the system should handle SL just peachy.. maybe the proprietary drivers thing.. will try to make something of a bigger HD partition thingy for this OS.. but .. in the man time.. is there something I might be missing which would prevent Phoenix from running? Its the right one for this OS, but even after being in SL breifly.. greyly.. in V.2.. it just wont load.

I dont know what I did.. I booted it from a disc, and installed it.. I had to change somethig blue menu wise in the guts of my computer to make the DVD be the deffault firt load, then change it back once it loaded the Linux, then I installed Linux. it asked me something I did'nt really understand.. I just said yes.. but it should have had at least 50 gig to play with.. its using only 3? I am sure I can undo it, and make it bigger, right? I will, since from I have ready between this and your last post, by all accounts, with the right drivers, SL runs ALOT better on the Ubuntu than vista.. as for the short cuts.. I dont know what that thing you asked me to open is.. I dont really know PC's at all.. I just know I have the black screen death thhing.. and can access, some of the things on my HD with Ubuntu, so might be able to get some help in accessing whats gone nuts with vista after a system restore.. so, if I am bt slow on your help, doesnt mean I dont appreciate it.. just mean I have jumped in the deep end with ubuntu, in the hopes of saving my only PC, and keeping my SL business up and running.

Ahh thank you so much Darren... I dont know anything about Linux.. but hoped to rescue my Visat using it.. but look like for a while at least.. until I can log into SL see if a few PC savy friends are online, I cant even do that. Now.. I did click on the snow globe, to run SL, in Phoenix, but nothing at all happens. As for Proprietary drivers..it tells me theres not enough room on the HD.. even though theres virtually nothing on the HD at all.. not in the section allocated to Ubuntu, and there was something like 100 Gig free space on the HD when I placed Ubuntu on it..., you say choppy.. how choppy? Also, what else, asside from what comes with Ubuntu 10.10 might I need to make Phoenix run?

Useful... though not quite what I was hoping for, maybe some one with a little bit less misguided mysanthropy can field this one.. you obviously had too much sugar on you weetbix, you muppet. If you cant help, dont help, if you dont want to help, dont tell me about it, go stunt the growth of some tree with your problems and bile, if you cant afford a therapist. Troll. Anyway... look, whoever might be able to help... all I want is how I make the Phoenix business, appearn, in Linux Ubuntu, as desk top Icon I can click, and run SL.. just like with normal OS's, I know linux is all commands and what not.. but Skype pretty much self installed... surely theres a very simple easy way to make an SL client work with this system

OK... I got KSOD on windows Vista, left field unexplained, I didnt have sticky keys enabled, and I didnt have task manager short cuts via them, thus, just about every trick in the books to fix the damned thing, short of forking out dosh I dont have on Windows 7, is a non option to me.. then I recalled something similar happening on the my fiance's lap top with XP, and her using Linux Ubuntu to partion and install a new OS, which allowed her to access the faulty things in her XP OS... except hers wasnt anything close to as dead as mine... I dont even know where to begin now I can seemingly access my HD.. and Windows OS files.. to enable the things I need to enable to try all the common fixes for the KSOD, if you have preloaded OS, not master disc.. SO.. I figure, hey, why not just use this Ubunut.. seems OK.. whatever it is... but I grabbed Phoenix for Linux.. and now.. I cant make it work.. theres no installation, theres no desk top icon, theres nada.. its pathetic, really.. so anyone at all out there now how to launch any sl client, prefferably Phoenix, because thats what I have (1.10 or something).. and can explain it in an idiot proof manner to some so far from computer savy that it would make most geeks eyes bleed and their faces melt off as their children weep over their exploded bodies.. it would be hugely appreciated.

I was told make the second post marking it as Q as the first was not, do not know how to mark it as resolved... whta does it matter to you guys anyway.

My viewer keeps teeling me it cant resolve the DNS to log in. I tried flushing my DNS cache, three times, I tried restting the system and the network.. nothing works, but I did notice a red banner across the top of my viewer now, with 'File Edit Help'..   I am almost certain it want red before...  anyone have any idea whats happening? Anyone have this problem? I am pretty buggered as to what to do, visted live chat, spoke to a Microsoft chat group, visted about 20 different forums from a google search result.. and basically have no idea what to do *This is a repost of this because the first time around I didnt mark it as a question. and yeah, flushed my dns, turned off firewall, reset network adapters, shut down the entire system, searched the web, spoke to MS and LL, still no love. Lost as to what to do
