Had a problem else where. I use a re-writable DVD with Roxio software (Hold over from W2K) The formated disks work fine in Fedora as rewriteable storage; it's where I save my Linux stuff in case of disaster. But must be Formated under W2K.

Disk went Foobar (They do in W2K from time to time as well) when I tried to add my latest on Sudo. So now I'm stuck in W2K re formatting the disk, nothing lost, just a 90 min pita before I can return to Linux and re copy my linux commands back over to it.

Say.... lol you would happen to know of an app that can handel formatting re-wrightable DVD's under Fedora now would you?

As far sudo... I think I just snapped to! I'm suppose to set my O/c in Nclock...THEN use sudo to save it?

You see I was thinking the O/C was changed by changeing the NUMBERS

GPU2DClockFreqs=513,792
GPU3DClockFreqs=513,792

Wanted you to tell me how you arrive at 513,792 as the default and what Numbers to replace them with to clock up... are you begining to see who your dealing with here? ":O}

revised how to: We'll work as root to avoid having to type sudo everytime..

Open Terminal

Code:
 su (root passwd)
Code:
nano -w .nvidia-settings-rc
Delete the lines:
GPUOverclockingState=1
GPU2DClockFreqs=513,792
GPU3DClockFreqs=513,792

CTRL+x, then "y" then "enter"

Next we will enable coolbits in xorg.conf

Code:
 nano -w /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Add the line Option "Coolbits" "1" as seen in the example below

Code:
Section "Device"
        Identifier  "Videocard0"
        Driver      "nvidia"
        Option      "AddARGBGLXVisuals" "True"
        Option      "Coolbits"          "1"
EndSection
CTRL+x then "y" then "enter"

Now we will restart the X-server by hitting CTRL+ALT+Backspace. Log back in..

Go to Applications --> System Tools --> nVidia Display Settings, click on the overclocking tab on the left and it will bring up this screen.. check the box to enable overclocking. Go to 3D Clock frequencies and bump each 20 or so, I don't have Quake4 so I I can't tell you what can be used as a benchmark, so just play a little quake. Once you reach a comfortable OC, then you would want to edit the .nvidia-settings-rc file with those clocks so that it will boot with those settings from that point on. Coolbits will still allow clock changes on the fly..

I have booted to fedora and will revise the above post to make it a little clearer.

Edit: Other post cleaned up, should be easier to follow..

Edit#2: For Gnome I have used GnomeBaker for DVD formatting, didn't seem to bad.. Still seems to me some of the better apps are under KDE.. I use K3B under KDE for all of my burning.. Otherwise there is always the command line option.. We'll save that for later, but I find it faster to just type the command in than opening and navigating an app just to format..

The only reason I can think it would not save changes is not having root priveleges..

Now I get it.. nano is a very basic text editor. just navigate to the line you want to delete using the arrow keys and the use the DEL key to get rid of the lines. nano is the red-headed step child of text editors..

Personally, I'm more of a vim man. That's still in Fedora, right? I prefer it to nano.

However, I've never really NEEDED to use vim even. Gedit seems to do all the same tricks with a GUI, and may be a little more Daniel ~ friendly. Just replace anywhere ccperf says to use 'nano -w' with 'gedit' and it should be nice and friendly.

Sometimes you have to use nano or vim, though, so don't get afraid to use them.

Thanks Redroar, a perspective from another linux user is always welcome. I feel bad sometimes when I have to tell people to do things the way I am comfortable with because I know there are easier ways but I have not used them so cannot be of much use. I want Daniel to find the things he is comfortable with as well..

Just add the coolbits line to the device section.. Everyones xorg.conf will be a little different.

I should have noticed this in your previous post. The file you will want to add the coolbits line to is: /etc/X11/xorg.conf

If you are more comfortable with Gedit use it to do your text editing instead of nano..
