This morning i want to start up my computer but it is not starting up? The software is not running?

It was running well with Cassandra Linuxmint 3.0

It starts up, I see the logo of Linuxmint ..and than not going on, it stops running the process.

Hope to have a rescue

OK. start in rescue mode so you see what's going on.
Then tell us where it stops. It should stop at a TTY root@your_computer_name
If it does leave it with the command "exit"

Thank Husse try to help

I can do that in rescue mode and did leave it with exit! but not continue the process ..still see the runner and software stopped.

modeprobe: warning: not laoding blacklist le ipv6

I see this when I start the power butun and not using rescue mode.

1. Grub loading
2. Mint from freedom came elegance ------------------------ oké

Ok this means that x does not start
Boot into rescue mode and at the TTY prompt run this command

dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg

You may also have to reinstall your video driver (envy is there to help you with that)

not loading blacklisted module ipv6

That's supposed to happen

aahhh ha envy is a program for nvidia sorry man I thought envy was a nickname

how to use envy because i can not all true the end staring up linuxmint?

linuxmint is/was working great ...play dvd movie etc.
I was succesful to connect my camera with usb (there was a problem in 45-libgphoto2_rules)

but this problem already happens and really do not want to install again with cd, i want to fix the bug

[Husse]

Do this:

Boot into rescue mode and at the TTY prompt run this command

dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg

If that does not help

Boot into rescue mode and at the TTY prompt run this command
envy

I get the impression that your native language is german, and if so you could post in the german language subforum and I will help you there instead (or in a nordic language subforum if that's better )

ooh yha my neighbours are german, i'm from the netherlands (holland) we always make fun about our neighbours but i'm sure they do the same

where was I? ah run this command envy >> it does not recognize command envy? do i have to type some extra"s

sorry for my language ..but i can write indonesian hé hé hé but really a dutch man

[Husse]

No - I don't understand dutch that well
It may be may error - try envy -t
I did not anticipate the need for that switch in a TTY but it is perhaps necessary

[ernst]

No - I don't understand dutch that well

Hi Husse,

I'm back home now and I did try your advise.
Yes envy -t is a succesful command to reinstall a nVidia driver but the MSI NX8600 GTS was not there to sellect.
I did try a older driver but no succes.
What can we do?

[Husse]

Envy should automatically select the right driver for your card which is a new card. If you can't get it to install you may have to go to nvidia's home page.
You still can't get to the desktop?
If so we have to apply the appropriate section of the how to for the live cd
http://www.linuxmint.com/wiki/index.php ... ur_Live_CD
Try the following (if you succeeded to bot in rescue mode)

nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf Note: there has to be a space between chroot and /root and also spaces between /root and nano as well as between nano and /etc. Please note that the X in X11 must be a major X

This will let you edit your graphics configuration file. Using the arrow keys scroll down to the heading called "Device". Under this it should have "Driver" to the left and beside it the driver in inverted commas, like so: Section "Device"

Identifier "NVIDIA Corporation NV43 [GeForce 6600 GT]"
Driver "nv"

EndSection

It's the same for ATI as for nVidia, only when it is an ATI card the Driver is (probably) "ati". For some reason these drivers are always loaded and never work for a lot of cards. Change whatever is identified as driver to "vesa" (only one set of quotes) Once you've done this press Ctrl+x then y then enter to exit the text editor

This will bring you back to the command line, simply type:

exit

Hi Husse,

I decided to reinstall all, I know it will be stabel for a week before get in trouble again.

In that time I like to download and install >>
Nvidia-linux-x86-100.14.06-pkg1.run from the http://www.nvidia.in/object/linux_displ ... 06_in.html

do you know where I have to save that new nvidia file and what is the best way to install that new driver?

Thanks

[Husse]

Save ti wherever you want - a new folder on the desktop?
But

pkg1.run

This is not a deb package and you have to learn about installing this kind of file...
I would recommend envy (from the menu in Cassandra)

Finaly succesful after reinstall and than direct use Envy to update the driver:D

You also have to after restart install linux-restricted-modules-2.6.20-16-generic

Husse, I think the driver on the nvidia is correct because i have found pkg1.run in the map usr/share/envy/nvidea-grapphics-drivers

on the ubuntu website i have found also some instructions but i didn't need it because envy did work!!! >> http://forum.ubuntu-nl.org/message/114509

have a nice day Husse, i will enjoy my linuxmint again

[Husse]

The driver may be correct - envy can run a .run automatically. If you want do it manually it involves some learning
Enjoy Cassandra!
