[QUOTE=Activeellis;25299019]I installed linux[/QUOTE] I found your problem

Ok, GPU Drivers... Download.. [url]http://uk.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/260.19.04/NVIDIA-Linux-x86-260.19.04.run[/url] What the fuck is this shit!? Do I have to use sudo or some shit for this?

What distro did you install?

[QUOTE=Pirate Ninja;25299154]What distro did you install?[/QUOTE] The worst of the worst.. I couldnt find my other disk, And I needed linux quickly, Don't ask why I didn't use a VM, Because I don't know. Mint..

If you can't find your way around mint you really are fucked.

It is easy, I have used ubuntu before and this is my second linux experience since 2 years. I remember how to use terminal... I remember how to do most of the shit. [editline]11:50PM[/editline] :saddowns:

OP if you don't know how to use it why did you install it over Windows

[QUOTE=ButtsexV2;25300071]OP if you don't know how to use it why did you install it over Windows[/QUOTE] That question answers itself.

Ok, if you don't know what partitions are and how they work then just, for fucks sake, stay away from linux.

Get Ubuntu :haw:

[QUOTE=TheKnowItAll;25301544]Get Ubuntu :haw:[/QUOTE] Go home. He already said he installed Mint. And Ubuntu is horrid and obviously turning into a OSX.

Go try Arch then come whining back, lets see how you do without a gui :smug:

[QUOTE=EEvilMuffin;25304214]Go try Arch then come whining back, lets see how you do without a gui :smug:[/QUOTE] Arch is fairly easy, you just need to know how to read.

Don't give me that 'arch is easy' baloney. Last time I tried it, every single pacman source was missing shit. Fuck that shut, I'll go with debian any day [editline]11:15PM[/editline] And by shit, I mean crucial shit. Like gcc.

Or if you were installing from a CD, you most likely got a corrupted ISO

Ok, I am back, I am now using Mint 8 and I am now not retarded, I know how to use all the shit, And I didn't deliberately overwrite windows whoever said I did, I accidentally set it to single-boot during installation. Also, My internet is slower than my asshole, My download speeds barely ever exceed 50kbps and I can load pages 3 times slower than on windows. Why is this?

I was going to allocate around 50gb to a linux partition. and 450gb to my windows 7 partition. I failed.

[QUOTE=EEvilMuffin;25304214]Go try Arch then come whining back, lets see how you do without a gui :smug:[/QUOTE] arch is way too easy. On that note, Linux is too easy. OP needs to try MINIX.

Fixed. resolv.conf screwed up.

It sounds like you didn't uncomment a source URL in "/etc/source.d/mirrorlist" and update Pacman. It's a pretty silly mistake.

[QUOTE=Zedo Mann;25331936][url]http://neosmart.net/dl.php?id=1[/url][/QUOTE] What are you on? OP can't boot into Windows, how could that benefit him?

Oh, whoops. [IMG]http://www.facepunch.com/fp/rating/book_error.png[/IMG] for me. Just reinstall Windows from your Windows Disk, OP. Except you'll have to re-do everything.
