I'm currently having problems with a reinstall after switching some stuff around.
I recently moved some hardware around in my shop. I decided I didn't need that nice LCD monitor on the CNC machine so I switched out a decent CRT monitor (Higher resolution etc). For some reason the system would no longer support any resolution higher than 800x600 (even though it had run as 1024x768 on the LCD). I tried installing compiling and installing NVIDIA video drivers which completely screwed things up.. I figured that I would just re-install the whole system from the new 2.3 ISO (after backing up my configurations and such). This was a bad move. My favored gui is Axis and unlike the 2.2. iso, the 2.3 iso did not install everything properly to run EMC with Axis on this system (OpenGL wouldn't work and I couldn't get it to support higher resolutions than 800x600). SO.. The saga continues.. I installed Ubuntu 8.04 distro, drivers etc.... got everything configured the way I wanted it.. (Including OpenGL) and then installed EMC 2.3.. as soon as the realtime kernel kicked in.. The NVIDIA drivers that support OpenGL would NOT work with the realtime Kernel, and NV would not support OpenGL (I'm not sure if this is normal or not). So it seems that essentially by switching my monitor out.. I've caused a whole cascade chain of events that has made it so I can't run my CNC machine. HELP?????? Any insights or ideas would be appreciated.
