Thank you for testing NVIDIA-173.14.25-k2.6.33.2.pet and posting the video-report. There were no errors in the X log. I will add it to the web site along with an NVIDIA-96 pet.charbaby66 wrote:You are very quick on the reply and the answer my friend! the new pet worked perfectly 1st try
Yes, that indicates it is active.set athcool on, athcool stat tells me :
VIA KT400[A]/KT600 (1106 3189) found
'Disconnect when STPGNT Detected' bit is enabled.
'HALT Command Detection' bit is enabled.
not sure if working
Try sensors-detect in a terminal and follow the prompts. If your hardware has any temp/fan sensors it should find them and list the lines to add to /etc/rc.d/rc.local to load the necessary modules during boot. If sensors were detected and the necessary modules are loaded you can type sensors in a terminal for current readings. If that works, then close and restart gKrellM and enable the sensors in gKrellM configuration.can see cpu load, ram usage, disk space; can't see computer temp, swap usage,fan speed, ACPI in most of the widgets or gadgets - defaults ones used, others tried - conky, pwidgets KDE thingies etc .. all the same before or after trying athcool
That's true GRUB is not especially user-friendly. It's a good idea to backup your menu.lst before making changes. My setup has LHP 5.00 boot files in /mnt/home/lhp500 and here is my menu.lst entry:think i am missing something somewhere that affects the system not knowing everything about my computer? is there a command to add or remove from my menu.list? (its pretty easy for a noob to miss a simple setting to boot with that can make things work right) mine is based on your command line

Some kernel modules are loaded automatically by the kernel and others in various scripts. Loading all modules could create conflicts, especially with video drivers. There's no need to load the freq scaling modules if none are compatible with your hardware. Frequency scaling is a relatively new feature, first introduced in some mobile processors and later in desktops.one thing i noticed re cpu freq tool , is that the acpi_generic modules and some others listed are not in boot manager at all but others are, arent they all to be there by default? loaded if desired?
Try editing /usr/loca/bin/roxso far everything else seems to be ok , except the rox filer bug (sure makes renaming a file an event! --- i will apply the fix i saw somewhere soon) and my wireless (using rt73) doesnt always keep its settings but i just run the connect wizard if needed.. im still learning here, and going to find forum fixes for that too)

Best to boot from Lighthouse CD, entering ram at the boot menu prior to running GParted, otherwise some partitions cannot be unmounted. Then in GParted right-click and unmount all partitions, including swap. Then you should be able to create/format/resize as needed. Just be careful with ntfs partitions. If Windows is installed, the Windows boot partition must be at or near the beginning of the drive and resized with Windows Disk Management, not GParted.EDIT: my swap issue seems to be that it was partitioned with luci208 209 or 210 (been testing too many!) and for some reason i am not able to delete and recreate the partition correctly in LHP - remains unallocated and unformatted even after reboot, so fixed partition in luci210 to have it work in LHP i need to manually activate swapon in Gparted or on the command line after every reboot (frugal install or ram) swapon not saved in pupfile swap not loaded on reboot.
If a Linux-swap partition is present, but not automatically enabled at boot, add/modify a swap entry in /etc/fstab
Code: Select all
/dev/sda6 swap swap defaults 0 0
