I guess that must be /dev/sda5, so i try with the command that you give me, but i have this error:

sudo grub-install /dev/sda5 && sudo update-grub

/usr/sbin/grub-setup: warn: Attempting to install GRUB to a partitionless disk or to a partition.  This is a BAD idea..

What i can do?

Hi there,

I come here looking for some help.

I Have Windows 8.1, i can boot the hard drive so i can access in a easy way to the grub to boot #!.
Now, i reinstall windows 8.1 and i lost the grub configuration, now when i try to enter to #! i have this error:

Entering rescue mode
grub rescue> _

I can access to #! with the next list of commands:

> ls
> set boot=(hd0,partition)
> set prefix=(hd0,partition)/boot/grub
> insmod normal
> normal

But always i try to access to #! i have to put those commands.
I already try with sudo update-grub.

Thanks in advance

Hi there, i have just one question, how i can know when your beautiful os is ready? do you notify in this topic? I see your github page but i am not a developer so i don't understand anything. Thanks!

emek · Help & Support (Beginners)

By luck i don't have personal stuff on the laptop, so i just lose time.
I have no idea if any distribution recognized my card because i use only #! so i don't download others....

emek · Help & Support (Beginners)

oh 8.( I think that Debian Jessie it's gonna help me.
Nop, in my bios i don't see nothing about Nvidia, or intel card.
I make something horrible, i want to delete all xorg files generated by Nvidia, and i delete something else, now my keyboard and mouse don't response. I have to reinstall #!.

emek · Help & Support (Beginners)

Thanks you!
I install the Bumblebee but don't work to me.
I'll wait to BunsenLab to see what i do, for now with intel card it's good for me.
Thanks for your help!

You should *read* the instructions and then follow them.
sudo aptitude install linux-headers-$(uname -r|sed 's,[^-]*-[^-]*-,,')
sudo aptitude -t wheezy-backports -r install nvidia-kernel-dkms
This presumes you are using Debian wheezy (or #! Waldorf).
Now is probably a good time to read the bottom link in my signature...
EDIT: Run these and post the output of the second command:
sudo update-pciids
lspci -knn|egrep -iA2 'vga|video'

Thanks for your help.
I follow the guide of Debian, i get install nvidia drivers, but when i restart the laptop, the x didn't start, then i uninstall all related to nvidia and i get back to the start.

I get this output:

00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Intel Corporation Haswell-ULT Integrated Graphics Controller [8086:0a16] (rev 0b)
Subsystem: Hewlett-Packard Company Device [103c:228d]
00:03.0 Audio device [0403]: Intel Corporation Haswell-ULT HD Audio Controller [8086:0a0c] (rev 0b)

I'm pretty sure that i have a nvidia 840M, because on windows work fine.

emek · Help & Support (Beginners)

Thanks very much!
I'll check

Edit:

I try to follow the guide of Debian wheezy, but i found two problems

1.- nvidia-detect don't detect my video card.
2.- When i follow the step to install the Version 340.65 (via wheezy-backports), i get an error:

sudo apt-get install -t wheezy-backports -r nvidia-kernel-dkms
E: Command line option 'r' [from -r] is not known.

I have no idea what i can do.

emek · Help & Support (Beginners)

Hello there!

I bought a new laptop and have a nvidia 840M. I looking for the driver but i found solutions that i don't want.
I found two topics with

http://crunchbang.org/forums/viewtopic.php?id=32800
http://crunchbang.org/forums/viewtopic.php?id=38243

On both topics, there are explanation to install drivers from the page of nvidia, but i understand that if you install that driver and then you update you kernel, you have to install again the driver. So, my question is: How i can install nvidia driver and keep update it?

Thanks you!

ps: i hope that you excuse me for my english.

Use this to list all services:
# chkconfig --list
Disable unnecessary services with:
# chkconfig <name of service> off
For the graphical desktop, look in ~/.config/openbox/autostart and /etc/xdg/autostart for programs you can remove.

System say " bash: chkconfig: command not found "

@emek: You're English is good enough for me to understand; don't sweat it. If you want a list of all packages on your system, open up a terminal window and enter the following:
dpkg -l > <path>package-list_YYYYMMDD.txt
This will generate a text file containing all of the packages currently installed on your system. To see a list of loaded and running packages, use a program like htop, which is included with CrunchBang, or install gnome-system-monitor (which is nicer IMO) from the Debian repo.

I delete the <path> part and give a lot of program. The problem is the list don't show me the startup programs.
What i can do?

Hello,
i try to use systemd, but i have not install it 8.(
Can i install it without problem?

emek · Help & Support (Beginners)

Hello!

Before anything i like to say that my English is not very good, so i hope that you understand.

I noticed that my system it's become slow when start, so i want to know what programs (services o scripts) start with him.

When the system start i see the list of program but i can't rich to write down them because it's so fast.

I know that you can get a list of program in the autostart.sh file but there isn't the programs i looking for. For example i see something about bluetooth when the system start, but is not in that list.

How i can get those programs?

Thanks in advance

Recently i want to install Steam too, i follow this guide and i install in a couple of minutes. There is the solution for the problem of Libc6 dependencies.
http://blog.desdelinux.net/instalar-ste … an-wheezy/

The guide is in Spanish, but is very simple to follow, just see the place where say "Solucionar el problema del Libc6"
Generally i don't comment no one topics (?) because I'm a beginner in linux, but i know that the method work. Good look

ps1: sorry if you don't understand to me, i don't speak English very good.
