I reinstall xubuntu from different cd, and working even on 100.14.11 drivers installed from nvidia site - it about 2x faster that older from repository (glxgears 10000 fps :) - without beryl), seems my old CD are broken.

The repository drivers are usually a bit older than the current videocard company releases, virus. It also seems to be favourite to install the repository ones through the Restricted Drivers Manager - I don't know if you have that in Xubuntu, but I would have thought it likely.

I try that Xubuntu very early this morning. It would not install or boot up after install. It seem they never tested this version 7.04 at all. I think it was a rush release without checking it out to make sure everything is working right. Btw: It screwup my xp boot and I probably will not try Xubuntu again because it wasn't stable. Even though it looks much cleaner than Ubuntu.

Find anything that isn't stable on Linux then let us know about it.

Ubuntu 7.04 came out in April of this year, kinghanco, and Xubuntu 7.04 must have come out at around the same time. I somehow doubt that the Xubuntu release can have been that buggy if no-one else has noticed it by now.

I might point you to a comparable situation with motor cars. The most critical component in a car is the nut that holds the steering wheel...

I think they didn't have more than 1 hard drive when they tested it.

I have 3 hard drives. What it does is enabled all and try to partition all 3 at the same time. All 3 just pop up into 3 folders area and gave me partition error on the one was partitioning. I don't know why that did that. I try a few times more and then qiut missing with it. Ubuntu didn't do that at all when I have all 3 running.

So there is something that they done on Xubuntu to causes that. I did turn off my storage hard drive and wipe zeros onto the 2. Then try to reinstall Xubuntu but that fail after reboot. All it did just sit there and do nothing.

Oh yea. It did show my hard drive storage 2x on the screen. I don't know what up with that. It doesn't do that on Ubuntu as well.

I wipe zeros again. Install Ubuntu and xp back. Everything is back to normal.

Maybe they put the beta over the stable release? That could happen.

Here is where I download from. http://www.xubuntu.org/get >>> United States http://mirror.anl.gov/pub/ubuntu-iso/DVDs/xubuntu/7.04/release/ PC (Intel x86) desktop CD - xubuntu-7.04-desktop-i386.iso

Xubuntu isn't really what it's advertised to be. It runs Xfce about as efficiently as trying to run Beryl on 64 MB of RAM.

I'm currently switching over to something else.

Any distribution that has a lighter footprint than Xubuntu is likely to be largely console based, with very little gui control, youji. If you're Ok with that, fine; otherwise it might be a good idea to look at how you can improve your system's performance. More RAM would probably be a big help; it's still true that RAM is probably the best value for money upgrade you can get.

I have to say, I'm running Ubuntu 7.04 quite happily on a machine with an Athlon 1600+XP (I forget what it's running at, but somewhere around 1400 to 1500MHz) and 512MB single rate RAM. I just don't expect high-end performance out of it.

Run psx in gdb and paste a stack traceback here... to do this:

gdb ./pSX
(wait for gdb to load)

run
(wait for pSX to crash)

bt

When you type "bt" gdb will print a stack traceback at the point of the crash, copy and paste it here...

The program is running. Exit anyway? (y or n) y



I ran the original version of pSX (not the deb version from the unofficial repository) from a sub-directory of my home directory.

This is the same driver issue other people have had.

I will probably remove vsync support in the next Linux version - no drivers support it anyway and the nvidia driver has this bug (in older versions anyway).

Try updating your driver - get the latest one from nVidia - some distros are using pretty old drivers.

I use the last version of nvidia driver, not the old version in the repository :)
