Flannel, to the rescue , how convinient Zemus, try without the .inf

dug_, Pelo thanks

i cant use synaptic, the comp is offline and thanks flannel

hahaha, dug_ worked perfectly, god you are awesome man.

Aorion, you can use synaptic with the install cd , just so you know

sudo apt-get install libartsc0-dev

nm, offline means apt-get won’t work too

Is it possible to watch videos from Youtube on a linux machine?

ubuntu_, yes

ubuntu_, yes !flash | ubuntu_

To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash

it cant find that package

don’t thank me, thank the guy who wrote that tutorial on the ubuntu forum

Preferences file was populated, but completely commented out.

hey dawn !!

Aorion, flannel gaveyou a link to a deb file , put it on your desktop and dbl click it

Deleting that file fixed it.

Thank you.

dug_, do you know how to get rid of the last line? I don’t see any specific driver name before it says “invalid driver.” http://pastebin.com/m452b20f

RickH, congrats

I’m just about this far from throwing my computer out the window…. The .31 kernel upgrade broke my sound.

RickH, why ?

RickH, that’s fedora linux for you

RickH, .31 ? are you running gutsy ?

Reverting to 2.6.20-15.27 and it works. And I’m betting 2.6.20-16.29 (which I had previously) would also work again.

yeah i don’t know about that one, the tutorial suggests uninstalling ndiswrapper-utils too (since you compiled and installed your own): sudo apt-get remove ndiswrapper-utils

Nope. Feisty.

dug_, hum, thanks

You’re oh so very funny… heehhe

RickH, unless you went and removed the kernels you can still boot them from grub , and set them to be the default

dug_, yeah, it’s not installed RickH, no joke I’ve wanted to chuck this thing out the windows so many times as a result of linux.

The 2.6.20-16.29 I had was overwritten by the update the other day to the .31 kernel.

I mean for a distro

Is there some setting which would allow me to keep previous versions like that?

RickH, pastebin your /boot/grub/menu.lst file please

working…

is there a way to generate updated Ubuntu CDs/DVDs for installing ubuntu on another computer?

http://www.pastecode.org/132

christi, you can use aptoncd to make a sort of extra install cd that will have the other packages you have installed that are different from the instal cd I think

I think the thing that bothers me the most is that some problems are so simple to fix, if you know what to do, or you can find the right forum, or you can get an answer here.

RickH, from there the only thing I can suggest is for you to boot .15 , ( frankly this is the first time I’ve seen an extra digit at the end of a kernel, I never new about those little increments before)

But for some of them it’s faster to reinstall the OS!

ok reinstalled and still had same problem

Go into synaptic and search for “2.6.20″. You’ll see the current version which is installed.

RickH yep

search for “bcmwl5″ on this page too, it suggests some other things to remove: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=25683&page=2

The Aug 31, 2007 update was a kernel update to the .31 from the .29 (or at least that’s what I had, whatever everyone else had for 2.6.20-16)

dug_, I think I just needed to blacklist it… missed that step on the tutorial you gave me earlier. I’m going to reboot, brb

Maybe you could help me with the real gripe/error I have. It’s that my sound stopped working with the recent kernel update. Other people have had this problem too, and we’re all reverting to 15.

what version of gimp will be in ubuntu 7.10?

why do i see flame when i close a window?

howdy yall still having the prob when booting first time with x server error

RickH, I see, I never noticed that , you are more leet then I

earl_, that is an effect of compiz

2.3.18: http://packages.ubuntu.com/gutsy/

earl_, cause you are uing beryl

hi there

hmm

dug_, thank you!

howdy yall still having the prob when booting first time with x server error… any more suggestions?

how can i make windows xp do this?

earl_, or are the flames coming from your CPU? hehe

!hi | mastroDani

Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!

earl_, LOL

lol

Nighthawk420, are hyou installed now ?

hmm.

yes i have it partitoned and everything

earl_ you can’t make win XP do it?

earl_, sudo apt-get remove –puge baalzebub

lol

i can run it without the disk

is there apt-get for xp ?

earl_ no.

yes, actually there is now, lemme find it

Nighthawk420, boot the recovery mode, type sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg when ask select vesa , for the rest you are on your own

earl_ Yes.

gnome-mount -d /dev/scd0 an error message say: no media in the drive… if i use pmount it mount it like a charm (windows and my debian system work with that dvd normally)

but i only get the text interface until after i login and it goes to the blue dialog box in text interface saying that the x server was not properly set up. restart gdm when it is properly set up.

earl_ I meant to say yes orginally. Common typ.

Can someone help me install FlashPlayer?

*typo

mr gates told me with a pop up message that my OS was stolen

okay il go try that

it’s called win-get: http://windows-get.sourceforge.net/ but has limitations like no package for active virus shield (since it requires email activation)

ubuntu_ sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree ?

Does anyone have any idea’s as to why my screen goes blank when booting ubuntu 7.0.4 normally, but if I boot into recovery mode, and then “startx” it works? I am using the ‘ati’ drivers

Oh crud.. This old PC only has USB 1.1 ports… And I’m putting a USB 2.0 hub into it… Even tho the hub says it’s backwards compatable with 1.1 Ubuntu freaks out.

any idea guys?

startx, init 5, whats the diff

hey tom where can i get those drivers?

tom314, What if you boot without “splash” ?

did you understand the problem/situation?

does your friend have a dvd drive or a cd drive?

dug_ dvd drive

d4rkmoney - It doesnt work.

i just reinstalled ubuntu to get rid of the propatarity driver from ati and followed the instructions on the ubuntu wiki to set up xorg.conf

the same drive open the dvd from windows

got me then

mastroDani, is this a ubuntu installation dvd you burned ?

how do i boot without splash?

thank you im going to go try this

dug_, and the same drive open the dvd from ubuntu if i manually do pmount /dev/scd0

sup peeps

no problem, good luck

Pelo, no it’s a dvd with some photo and video of my holidays

tom314, At the grub menu press “e” to edit the first line, then e again to edit the line with “splash” in it and delete the “splash”

mastro, that really sounds like one of them ID 10t errors

mastroDani, no idea then, sorry

earl_, what’s a ID 10t error?

cross modulation of the laser during the queuing of the buffers

Are there any applications that would allow you to build your own ubuntu iso?

[LUCIAN], Yes

earl_, i see.. so it’s a driver problem? but… why pmount mount it without thinking twice?

[LUCIAN]: yeah there’s a gui app for remastering ubuntu, i would search google and forums for ‘remastering ubuntu cd’

thank you

[LUCIAN], http://reconstructor.aperantis.com/index.php?option=com_frontpage&Itemid=1

thanks Pelo

[LUCIAN], Though none is required since it can be done with standard tools [LUCIAN], Though none is required since it can be done with standard tools

urgh, so close

YES! that worked! Thank You, i have been messing with this all weekend

the wifi light blinks on, then turns off and won’t come on again.

dang, every time i click something….fire everywhere….

Jordan_U, How would you do it without?

earl_, there’s some workaround? or some page that can help me to better understand the problem? if there’s no solution (but create a little script to mount / umount the drive manually, wich i already created) at least i would like to understand something more of this problem

Can someone please help me? - I have no idea how to use this system, and I need the flashplugin

okay, i take that back… i got to the ubuntu login screen but the mouse and keyboard are not working

are you using a 64 bit version of ubuntu?

No

flash , check the box next to flash plugin non free , then click apply, , you need to be online

[LUCIAN], **technical** You mount the squashfs image, copy the contents to a folder, chroot into the folder, make changes, make a new squashfs from the folder and burn a new iso with that squashfs ( and a few tidying things like re making the checksums )

ubuntu_, open a terminal and write sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree or if you prefer open Synaptic package manager from Desktop-Administrator and search flashplugin-nonfree then right click, install.. then apply

Hello everybody

ubuntu_, I think I know what is going on

ubuntu_, you may need to enable the multiverse repository

software sources, in the first tab check all the boxes and also check the backport box in the third tab, then go to synaptic and search for flash

I’m installing Ubuntu 7.04 on an LVM Partitions

earl_, did you have some page that explain the problem or not?

mack75, very courageous of you I woudln’t know how

You’ll need the alternate CD mack75, even

someone with LVM installation?

!anyone | mack75

mastro, that really sounds like one of them ID 10t errors »» this mean i’m an idiot ????? why???

Flannel, no i don’t need the alternate CD

No, you probably dont. But it’s a wonderful thing to have. You can even decorate your house with them.

Hey, could someone tell me how to open network-manager after I’ve installed it?

Pelo - Cant find Software Sources (Using a danish version)

I think it’s under system-administration-network if i ‘mnot mistaken

when i install my ubuntu i want to log into but when it comes to loading it just stops why

is there a way i can have a screensaver on my terminal?

ubuntu_, go in synaptic check in the menus for the repositories, same dialog , same actions to perform

is there a way to configure firestarter for both wireless and wired?

earl_, if this is my stupidity.. please explain to me ’cause i don’t see any error by me.. all my dvd always worked with any system.. so.. if this is my fault.. where? and why other system doesn’t have it?

dug_, I believe that’s the “network administration tool”.

anyway.. it’s not so kind to call “idiot” people asking for a problem

mastroDani, I think he was just taking a cheap shot , please ignore it umastroDani, I think he was just taking a cheap shot , please ignore it/u

Pelo, i installed alternate installation like you said and it installed without any problems, but when i want to log in it just stops and its not going anywhere

AHHHHHHHHHH i typed in “sudo dkpg-reconfigure xserver-xorg” and it said command not found

dug_, I THINK I have it installed properly, things half work, and everything that should be telling me what I’m supposed to get or see is incredibly vague, so I’m not sure if I’m there or not. I just want a list of available wireless networks to connect to.

Nighthawk420_, dpkg not dkpg

try typing ‘iwconfig scanning’

sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg

does anybody install Ubuntu on LVM?

Fuck this shit, and screw opensource!

Pelo, i know.. but it isn’t an idiot problem.. so.. case are 2: 1) he didn’t understand my problem, 2) HE is an idiot

dug_, I did, not sure what I’m supposed to see.

or if you see a computer icon on right side of top bar, click it and choose wireless and it should display all the wireless networks in range

yes mou5e omg im a fuckin tard

devilz, ok boot up the recovery mode and type sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg , select vesa when asked, don’T know for the rest figure it out , should get x working

lol

there’s a learning curve, I’m sure you didn’t just sit down and know windows

i feel lik a totally retard now

!ohmy Nighthawk420_

anyway.. nobody know what this can be?

dug_, I used to have that icon, and I could access the network manager by it, but it’s gone now. I don’t know how to get it back, or how I accidentally removed it.

iwlist scanning — will show all the networks in range, with their essid’s and so forth

i think it’s hard to debug this

Pelo, i tried recovery mode, but it stops there too dont want to load

dug_, whoa, yeah nice ok I see my wifi

dug_, the last ning of that command is optional

dug_, now how do I get that in gnome O_O

Pelo, i tried control^c but cant do nothing

!medibuntu

medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org

Pelo, i reinstalled 8x times, burned 3 different cds

i don’t know, i just make sure wireless is enabled in system-admin-network. maybe also you need to restart or something, not sure

somebody has tried to install ubuntu on LVM??

!repeat | mack75

Don’t feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience

devilz, ok let me review , you don’T even get to the command line ?

dug_, I have a couple of times… icon isn’t there. There must be a way to access it. It’s somewhere in the system, it’s a program, how do I open it?

pelo, excatly

try alt-f2 nm-applet –sm-disable to get back the applet

you can try right click on top bar, add to panel, and select the network manager applet

!modem

You want to connect via dial-up? Read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto

devilz, hmm, ok which version did you install ? and what is your comp’s cpu and how much mem do you hve ?

Pelo, last lines i see are something from CDrom, but when i disable my cdrom, then my last lines are something from SCSI

nickrud, holy hell, that was awesome, how did you do that O_O dug_, thank you as well!

Pelo, latest version, my cpu 3.0ghz 512ram 6600 gt nvidia

devilz, are your cdrom and hdd ide or sata ?

I looked in my system-prefs-sessions

pelo ide

I have no idea what that means.

devilz, I mean amd64 or i386 ? which version dd you dl ?

pelo i386

nickrud, I’m looking in there, but where did you get the code from?

session tab

devilz, is this a built comp or one from the big co ?

*current session

nickrud, I see it… niiiice

pelo built comp

devilz, hmmm

Pelo, but i think its nothing wrong with it, coz i had different version of linux and ubuntu, etc

hey all. can anyone elaborate a little bit on how ubuntu discovers hard disks? it seems that whenever i reboot my machine, all my SATA disks could switch between any of sd[a..f]

devilz, what’s the last version of ubuntu that worked ?

pelo i dont know was a year ago

do you have them identified in the /etc/fstab as partitions, i.e. /dev/sda1 etc or are you using UUID’s?

dutch, ubu now uses uuid so it identifies partitions which are tagged

pelo its really odd this thing

devilz, I’m out of ideas

Pelo: hmmmm where can i get more on this UUID feature?

pelo dont be please, lol

blkid in a terminal will list them.

devilz, if you can make a note of the exact error msg you can try a search for the msg in the forum , see what it turns up

Pelo, there is no error

dutch check for a private message windows with instructions from ubotu

you can also use labels, as set with e2label

how’d you change the username?

boot to recovery mode, and add the user to admin group ‘adduser user admin’

you might try gcrontab

sorry admin and users

package name is cron

lashmoove, it’s already installed , jsut type crontab in the terminal

admin, then reboot.

how do I boot into recovery?

type “crontab -e” to create a cron job. you’ll need to read tutorials to learn about the format: http://www.google.com/search?source=ig&hl=en&q=crontab+tutorial&btnG=Google+Search

dug_, french is spoken in a lot of other countries

maybe some canadians are on #ubuntu-fr

anyone here installed ubuntu on raid array?

there’s sypheed and sylpheed-claws; you can add or remove functionality

Evanlec, did you see the link about raid and lvm ? give it a look chances are you questions are answered in there

yea, i’ve been reading those docs but i can’t get past the first step because how can i partition my disk if it wont even see the existing ntfs partition ?

Evanlec, I see the problem but I think you need to use the alternate install cd to install on a raid , the tools in there are probably better adapted to do that

think so?

Hm. I have a little script (”#/bin/bash; $command”), if I doubleclick it and choose Run, nothing happens. If I choose run in terminal, a terminal opens and closes again. If I execute it from a shell though, it works

it’s the first time I join this kind of discussions….from France ! I’am sorry, but this is not the spirit of ubuntu

What am I doing wrong?

Evanlec, I,ve seen that mentionned apo_, permissions ?

when the command completes, the terminal closes

okay what would be the command line to install dmraid from the repo?

extension “GLX” missing on display “:0.0″.

But the command isn’t being executed

thats the only part it seems to want a gui for

Hm?

Evanlec, search for dmraid in synaptic

It does have +x

apo_, it was just a thought

right, ive doen that, but with the alternative install cd dont i just have a terminal interface?

During the install, its a textmode GUI. It can install a normal GUI system though

sudo apt-get install lvm2

okay, which do i want, dmraid or lvm ?

dude we have wifi NICE dug_, the vast majority of that was you. THANK YOU. I wish I could send you money or something. I’m rather broke. D: … Did I ping out, can anyone read this? dug_, did you see me thanking you?

Evanlec, if you already ahve a raid , I would suggest dmraid

Sorry about that.

yea, raid is already setup with windows

why can’t I access my windows network or the printers on a windows computer without restarting all the systems and the network router, and even then it sometimes won’t work?

just reset them to what suits

i need to be able to boot/install from the existing raid 0 setup

well i just got my first paycheck in a while 2 days ago so i’m fine

I don’t care to change them. I wanna know what they are.

xev

do you have a Software based RAID? or a Hardware Based RAID?

mack75 its a “hardware” onboard sata raid, ICH7R family setup in bios

why can’t I access my windows network or the printers on a windows computer without restarting all the systems and the network router, and even then it sometimes won’t work?

but its not technically a total hardware raid

Pelo, nah, but breaking the rules every great once in a while never hurt anything

¿??

mack75, a lot of new motherboards are coming with built-in raid controllers, its one of those

If you have a Hardware based Raid, then you don’t need dmraid

occasionally my wireless connection will drop and the only thing that allows me to reconnect is a full reboot… what could be the problem?

mack75, but ubuntu doesn’t see the array as one disk, it sees it as 2

dmraid and LVM are tools for Software Based RAID

ok ! I’m sorry ! It’s really very intersting ! but what is this black out about ubuntu in fensh ?!!

sometimes I have to select the network again in the dropdown menu to let it reconnect

Then this doesn’t RAID

when i do that, it tries to connect, then drops. the only thing that fixes it is a full reboot

no one speaks fensh anymore

as soon as i reboot… connects right away, no problem

mack75, this doesnt RAID?

i thought you just misspelled french

On the BIOS, you have setting the RAID parameters?

frensh sorry

mack75, yes mack75, well, its a utility thaqt boots up with the bios, yes

D’oh I found the error

any ops can send titi to the -fr channel please ?

install the kubuntu-desktop package

have you tried the vesa driver when you reconfigure?

yes i did i used the vesa driver

[how]

!rape who

anyone recommend a good calendar and scheduling program?

lol

mack75, right, but i was reading documents that said they could be used to boot from a hardware raid already set up

you are having a weird experience, it’s usually not this difficult

i installed wine a while back. the wine utilities/config all had pretty icons with the menu entries. now, for some reason, the icons are gone. the menu entries are there, but the icons are gone. what could be the problem?

g’night foks

nite

When you have more than one HardDisk and you want to join all together like a big HardDisk and you don’t have a Hardware RAID, then, use dmraid or LVM

i like google calendar and yahoo calendar. for the desktop, see mozilla sunbird

if i didnt do startx before i said sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start would it still show that error?

thanks dug_

no, those are two separate ways of starting X

I’m going to the Intel Site to review the link

mack75, i understand what you’re saying mack, but that would be if i had a nice clean system, i have windows that is already installed on a raid array

when I go to add/remove programs and search for kubuntu I get only “kubuntu device database”

i cant do updates because it says i have a fatal error without having ubuntu desktop

use synaptic, not add/remove

hmm so ne other suggestions nickrud

ok

add/remove is a select very limited subset of the entire repositories

do you have net yet?

nope

arg

well i do on here on vista right now not on ubuntu

just wanted to state here; nautilus ’sort by filename’ is broken

all i have is a text interface

in many interesting ways

I was going to tell you a way to paste the X error file to the net so we could see it

interpret ‘01′ the same as ‘1′ in a filename

ah think you ! I just copy and pasrt the link, but it does not works . I became crazy ! you are really sympatic…I will try later. I think I’m little bit tired….. /join #ubuntu-f

Hello, all… I am having trouble with a package called “dspam-webfrontend”. I don’t know what package had this package as a dependency, but something went wrong with its installation and now I want to remove it. The problem is, if I try to remove it, apt-get complains about an error when configuring the package.

sudo dpkg isn’t letting me install this .deb file, any help?

so 2007-09-03.01 and 2007-09-03.1 are ‘identical’ to nautilus, that’s just plain wrong when sorting anyway

Is there a way to tell apt-get to ignore or to “force remove” a package?

nickrud , do you want me to hand write it? it will take forever tho

i installed wine a while back. the wine utilities/config all had pretty icons with the menu entries. now, for some reason, the icons are gone. the menu entries are there, but the icons are gone. what could be the problem?

dug_, is there a command line apt-get install command for sunbird?

CaptainMorgan, doubt it, however, the installation is easy iirc, just extract and go like everything else from mozilla

it’s about 400-800 lines, so no. But, if you have a usb stick, you can probably copy it over to vista that way. /var/log/Xorg.0.log is the file to show, and the usb should be in /media when you insert it

i don’t see an ubuntu package for sunbird actually, you can download and install manually from mozilla site. or do an: apt-cache search calendar to see other alternatives

and since you’re an old time cpm’er, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/CommandLine should be helpful

sudo aptitude install flashplugin-nonfree , or search for flash in the add/remove dialog

i got problem with my dhcp

mack75, what do you think of that intel driver?

you don’t need the dmraid or lvm module

fail when i start it

mack75, no?

thanx guys!

Nickrud - We have tried sudo aptitude install flashplugin-nonfree - No luck.

you need the kernel module for the Intel SATA RAID

what happened?

I´m reading all this stuff on arp poisioning, so I did a quick pingsweep and I´m the only one on the subnet - besides the gateway

mack75, is that what my link was for or ?

ok, add/remove preferences button, make sure the first 4 check marks are selected, along with at least the first 2 on the updates tab.

you might search for ‘ubuntu backup rsync’ for some tutorials. use mysqldump to create a flat file you can use to backup mysql

thanks

be sure to go back and give that new user access to the devices

also, i want to try this, it’s called rsnapshot: http://www.technetra.com/writings/archive/2005/08/20/backups-are-a-snap-with-rsnapshot

anyone ever used bluetooth on linux?

hey???

hi

any ideas

Are they connected to the same router (and are on the same subnet?)

Nickrud - Software Preferences is open.. Is that the right program?

hi all i need a quick answer. does ubuntu server 7.04 support hardware raid?

yes i have linksys sometnig, and they get internet thrue this router

yes. Now, the checkmarks there are about where you can get packages. You should select the first four

Warp4, nope ;p

I’ve only barely tested bluetooth with a wii controller to see that it is recognized, not used bluetooth for anything serious. i searched synaptic package manager for anything related to bluetooth

flash is in multiverse, by the way

my second hard drive stopped mounting. i can mount it by command line, but it no longer automatically mounts. the error it gives is: Unable to mount the volume. mount_point cannot contain the following characters: newline, G_DIR_SEPARATOR (usually /)

I’m looking for the driver

Evanlec, really?? it’ doesnt?

Warp4, unless u have a specific raid device

Nickrud - There are no checkmarks or anywhere to mark in Software Preferences

what can ldo if l want to connet to my cellphone use bluetooth?

dug_, yeah i tried to get my bluetooth headset to work now for about 2.5 hours, now I give up

Warp4, ur going to have the same problem im dealing with right now, getting a driver module

hrm, what version of ubuntu are you running, 7.04?

anyone here using a wifi card with a rt2500 chipset?

5.10 ;S

hello hola

ahr, ok.

Would anybody happen to know why X-chat would decide to flicker for a second then dissapear when I attempt to run it?

I give up I don’t think ubuntu will ever work for me…

mack75, this isn’t it?? http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=113555

Nickrud - Old CD I found with Linux - I think its a few years old..

you’ll probably need to search for ubuntu samba tutorials like these: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&safe=off&q=ubuntu+feisty+windows+samba&btnG=Search

yes, it doesn’t even get security updates anymore

omg a skinnypuppy fan

Hmmm.. Nickrud - Can I update it somehow?

#emc

you took the words right out of my mouth

i have my windows ntfs partition mounted, and when i send files from there into the trash, they go to /.Trash-pyrak (pyrak being my name)

a sec, while I see if those notes are still around

Nickrud - It happens from time to time

how do i empty this trash?

nick so ther isnt anything else i can really do?

?trash

rm -rf /.Trash-pyrak/*

how do I get the spellcheck in open office to work?

Nickrud - 2 secs, I have to connect a new screen, this laptop screen isnt bright enough.

apo_, is there a GUI method pls?

Severin, ok

I typed “I m gewd @ spellng” and it said it was all correct

Hm… I think you can go to that folder, select everything and then hit shift+del But I’m not sure. I rarely use nautilus

do you have an entry under the menu Tools-Spellcheck?

dug_, I see the command for spellcheck in there.

apo_, got it, thanks

You’re welcome

hi, can anyone tell me how can i reconfigure X

G’night *poof*

It’s right

sudo dpkg-reconfigure xorg , someone correct me I know that’s wrong

i think you can right click the folder and choose send to trash and it will delete it

Hey hey people

I second the right click

mack75, thats what i want? okay

dug_, resolved, thanks

when you type “gewd” and then a space, do you see a red squiggly line under the word? that’s how it tells you that you misspelled it

O Hey I just had an idea… If i went and installed Dapper Drake instead of 7.04 u think I would have the same problems?

I have a question about mPlayer/MythTV: Is it possible to suppress the gnome screensaver when mplayer is running? And is it possible to use the remote to terminate screensaver?

Nickrud - There we go

dug_ nope

I’m trying to install Ubuntu on my laptop, but I’m hung up on a few things. I can’t get my webcam to work with any programs, and I keep having problems with my sound. Wireless doesnt work either.

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DapperUpgrades . Also, there’s a channel #ubuntu-dk

dug_, yeah there’s no squiggly line underneath it.

I think there is an #OpenOffice.org channel or something where you might get more help then

Nickrud - Thank you.

do you try with: “modprobe -v silraid”

yw. I hope you enjoy it can’t hurt

Nickrud - Thats the plan

okay nick il start downloading it gotta project for tomrrow then

I only have a 15 year old desktop.

ok

do you use windows??

yeah

we will convert you: or make you dualboot ubuntu

who do run good between ubuntu and kubuntu?

You know, he was probably a troll, but he didn’t actually DO anything, did he?

mother-russia: what are you trying to do?

Evalec, I tried, but it keeps crashing for me . I uninstalled, rebooted, reinstalled… no joy.

Mother-Russia, sorry im not sure then, im kind of a noob ;p

mattg, I’m trying to run X-chat from the dropdown menu shortcut, but it flickers for a split second then dissapears (I presume it’s crashing?), but then I found X-chat in bin, and it works. Evanlec, ah, okay. I’m really new at this

mother-russia: are you using ubuntu right now?

Mother-Russia, me too, just a few days with ubuntu so far

mattg, yes.

Mother-Russia, is it only with xchat or any other prpgram

mother-russia: i would try removing it, and using synaptics to reinstall it

kishan, only with xchat, and only after I changed its preferences to autoconnect to a few servers mattg, I’ll try that.

Mother-Russia, are u using english or any laguage tools

anybody here know how to use airsnort?

sorry, i’m not finding much. sometimes very new motherboards don’t work well with ubuntu for a while. you can try the next version of ubuntu (gutsy tribe 5 release), or do searches like “AA8XE ubuntu” and “fatal1ty ubuntu”. hopefully someone in forum will answer you usorry, i’m not finding much. sometimes very new motherboards don’t work well with ubuntu for a while. you can try the next version of ubuntu (gutsy tribe 5 release), or do searches like “AA8XE ubuntu” and “fatal1ty ubuntu”. hopefully someone in forum will answer you/u

see if there are how-to’s on the net, garette

I’m trying to run QEMU with the option -cdrom /dev/cdrom only to get the error qemu: could not open hard disk image ‘/dev/cdrom’. What am I doing wrong?

Now execute: “dmesg”

mattg, you use gdesklets or kdesklets either?

“dmsg |tail -n 150″ better

when I install via svn and later want to update, do I just go to the original svn directory and type “svn update” or do I need to do that, then reconfigure and reinstall?

that disables it permanently?

you can go to system-prefs-screensaver and tell it to turn off the screen never

mack75, u know i am running livecd right?

did you try searching the forums?

heya

thats were I found most documentation on my phone.

how do i kill x and go back to the cmd prompt?

ok i will try that

ctrl+alt+backspace

aah thats it

oh, no sorry

ctrl+alt+f1 then /etc/init.d/gdm stop

that reboots X

ctrl alt backspace will respawn

its actually a bit overwhelming

oh yea

ctrl+alt+f5-f8

but i’ll try

actually it’d be f1-f6

to get back alt+f7

you can turn off respawn behavior in inittab I beieve

Right

h1st0, oh ;p

believe*

mack75, why trying to install promise raid ? mack75, i think i dont use sata_sil driver maybe, just intel

mmhhh

everything is in /etc

third tab , auto login

lol

Pelo, like I have gdm installed come on

ah, metaphorically inittab’d it

…

may be you need to create a LiveCD with the iswraid

mack75, thats what i was thinking… mack75, but i have no idea how to do that

Pelo, that is a waste of resources

do you have try with another distro?

bruenig, I’m a WIMP sue me

mack75, no mack75, do you think other distro will have iswraid built-in ?

Gentoo have a LiveCD with a good hardware recognition

why would you install a beast like that just to do auto login when you can do it inittab

or knoppix

i have knoppix livecd

why don’t you just use ubuntu whats the problem?

bruenig, I didn’T install gdm to do auto login gdm was there , I set it to autologin

h1st0, not detecting raid array

Pelo, ahhh

h1st0, iswraid is intel’s kernel module for supporting my raid controller

k so modprobe it

i dont know how

Or you will make a LiveCD

what kind of raid controller do you have?

it is kind of odd to use a login manager to auto log you in when you think about it

modprobe it???

it is Intel ICH7R SATA RAID controller onboard

alright give me a sec

h1st0, tank you

Is there any way to tell Ubuntu to ignore an update?

In mplayer, my sound for alsa is blocked. I can use the esd driver but that’s it. Sound with alsa works fine everywhere else. Someone want to help me fix this?

bruenig, 20 years of dos/windows 14 months of linux, cut me a little slack

yes, you put it on hold. I put all of gutsy’s libc6 stuff on hold today

so i uh, forgot the cmd to kill x once i was in the cmd line lol

h1st0 i be back 2 minutes

you can do that in synaptic, a sec

how does one put an update on hold? My computer is trying to update compiz-core from 1.0.5.2 to 1.0.5.2 (the same version and if I update, my computer says i still need the update)

from Amaranth’s repo?

I know this is probably a banned question, but what is it in Gutsy that causes the Atheros driver to fail? I replaced the stock one (which didn’t work) with the one from upstream svn trunk, built from source, which worked GREAT on Feisty and Edgy…

thanks pelo :

yes

bruenig, I’m not exactly in the computer business / feild either, I’m just a home user

they’ve been going round and round on that one, I haven’t heard that there’s a fix uthey’ve been going round and round on that one, I haven’t heard that there’s a fix/u

But something on Gutsy causes this same exact source tree to fail to associate

Pelo, I just got out of high school

what version of ubuntu are you trying to install?

oh ok, i’ll just wait it out then

Could someone walk me through installing a gtk theme?

bruenig, ah there you go, you still have room in your brain for this stuff

is that edgy or fiesty?

feisty

Anyone know?

select the package, then under package on the menu, select lock

know what?

hrm.. the feisty kernel should support it hold up
