Okay. (I was going to recommend something if you were)

I’ve no idea what nzb is; must be something that’s come out in the few years I’ve been away.

oh, and i was wondering if i should get a case fan, this might not be the best place to ask…

what you said about desktop computing is very true. i have a cheap matsonic mobo with a 650 mhz proc and 256m ram, the thing used to boot xp in no less than 5 seconds without any modifications.

skinnypuppy1334, you don’t want to go to -effects , they just a bunch of weirdos

err. no more than*

.

lol @ Pelo

foug, just do it in the terminal, what is this gui nonsense

Can someone help me get sound to playback on my pc, i get my mic to work just not playback.

It’s a metainfo file. Load an NZB it gets all the parts for you (don’t need to select them manually, don’t need to get headers)

agreed but i’m not sure how

Take a look at binsearch.info

I have a question about booting.

I give up, for now

WIndows booting from power up in no more that 5 seconds…

thanks for all your help guys

foug, cp thing newplaceofthing

[CK]Daemon, do you get any sound at all in your comp ? from cd or mp3 or videos ?

no

AH! Clicking on the deb file has no effect; it just fires up an archive manager. Does apt-get have a localinstall option similar to yum’s?

!sound | [CK]Daemon start with this

Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3

When I boot Ubuntu in normal node, it just hangs. But, if I start it up in single user mode, then ‘exit’, it starts up normally.

afk

including no hdd activity after seing the gui (taskbar and all that crap) i never had that before. and even the better computers i ran win on were slower on boot

I used the monitors and i can see the mic levels raise but no sound

awesome i love you

hallo

You can try running ‘gdebi pan-blah-blah.deb’. That should work (although double clicking should also. Are you on Gnome?)

Clicking the deb should bring up an installer. If you’re looking for dependency resolving, check out gdebi

KDE.

is someone here who has used or is using the amanda backup tool?

Soryy… dont believe it unless it is a suspend to ram situation. no cold boot of XP in under 5 sec

Have you looked at Klibido?

!anyone | Kworth

A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with “Does anyone/anybody…” Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?

soothsayer, no, I haven’t.

Try it out.

gdebi-core includes a CLI version

Jack_Sparrow no bullshit. i counted AFTER bios (but the bios took something like 2-3 secs

Many people like it better than pan.

i did apt-get for medibuntu, where will the programs show up? can’t find anywhere…

Sure..np

Why is ubuntu missing libboost-serialization1.33.1?

Jack_Sparrow i suspect the thing had such basic hardware that it was really fast to init/whatever it does

Opening tapedev cannot remove `/home/markus/SBLAN/backup/amanda/data’:

saw this just now .. make love …. (Error! .. Can’t make love (Too many arguments)

[CK]Daemon, start with the links I just gave you, that’s to fix your sound so you can hear stuff, that will likely take care of the rest

Jack_Sparrow i dont use the machine anymore but its still there, responding to ping in a cupboard, ill try to make a custom distro and see how fast it can boot

apparently debian upstream doesn’t have it either :/

jimmygoon, it seems to be part of boost

I doubt running Amanda is common for people in this channel (you might not be able to find help here. Try Google, mailing lists, … etc.). See if there is an Amanda irc channel also

hmm

kitche, through my readings it is a bug that debian had because of timing, and it appears ubunut inherited it

i did apt-get for medibuntu, where will the programs show up? can’t find anywhere…

!medibuntu | mikubuntu

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

kitche, I’ve been putting off compiling the new version of boost from source for a while now, but I have no choice now

You need to install them, just like regular packages.

How do I copy everything after a certain point in a vim to another file?

Try #vim

i guess pslon left the building, can u help me? i downloaded the medibuntu package, i think, but where do i find the elements? i was particularly interested in google earth at the moment, psylon said to get medibuntu, and that it would install/maintain for me … i lost.

Soothsayer, I’m giving klibodo a try. It seems to just be dedicated to binary downloads, is this true?

z0rz, in a terminal window or in console mode ?

jimmygoon, I see libboost-serialization1.33.1in syaptic

terminal window

can someone tell me why this command won’t work ssh-copy-id -i ~/.ssh/id_dsa.pub adminname@192.168.1.15

z0rz, select with the mouse crtl+c to copy, paste to another window with ctrl+v

Yes. (There is another program, KNode if you want to read text, but I though you wanted binaries only)

Right.. but it’s about a 1000 lines of code .. and I can’t really select all that with my mouse very easily

Hmm. Nothing evil with using two newsgroup programs at the same time, I guess.

hey is medibuntu a “port” of the PLF ? i can see Hot-babe in there ?! Moreover, why can we find amarok and k3b in there ?

What package manager do you know how to use? apt-get? synaptic?

I get this error /usr/bin/ssh-copy-id: ERROR: No identities found

Does anybody in here use POW?

z0rz, sudo cp /path/to/sourcefile /home/user/newfilename.txt open with gedit and remove what you don’T want

very little on both i guess, if you sort of walk me to it

jimmygoon, so in fact ubuntu does have it

The package is called googleearth So, ’sudo apt-get install googleearth’ should work Or search for it in synaptic

so sudo apt-get install googleearth … ok, i try, thx

any liteweight system stat - to be shown on the desktop similar to gkrellm but only text?

If it doesn’t work you probably didn’t add the medibuntu repository correctly

Hello, openssl is installed automatically Which folder is it installed in?

conky

extras like the fancy gui effects

Utaka, there might be something to your liking in gdesklets

Hi i need help, x11 is down

its conky

Heh… klibido doesn’t seem to want to get any newsgroups.

thanks soothsayer think thats the one

a514, what did you do ?

looking for the same as in Damn Small Linux

ok, found it in synaptic, but there are two, one is binary and the other called data…

noc, /usr/lib most likely but it’s not the -dev files

I type dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg & it still does not load?!

I don’t use Klibido, so I probably can’t help you much. Maybe someone else?

kitche WHAT kitche, what version of ubuntu do you have?

well seems there are some misconceptions about these numbers. double the cpu frequency then double the performance … well sure … performance as in how many numbers can get crunched per interval, but how responsive a certain app feels when clicking it in the gui? that is a different story altogether

usr/lib has “ssl” but how do I install the dev files? that is what I need

Install the binary (data will be installed automatically as dependency.

anyone know where i can find the default “white” gnome-foot distributor-logo.png in 48×48 ?

jimmygoon, 7.04 noc, libssl-dev

kitche, can you cat your repositories to a pastebin for me. sorry for the trouble, but I don’t have the right repo

k, thanks, i go try

you can try setting it to vesa … max res 1024… and dont write sync rates to the xorg

how do i use my s-video

thank you, and where would that be installed after apt-get

or additonal monitors o nmy laptop

gah my hash is gone

I type dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg & it still does not ljjack thanks i have a nvidia aladdin tnt2

Neon, I found something called IDE Controller, I could set to IDE, RAID, or something SCHI I thik was that it said

Shishire, what are you tring to do ?

It was set to IDE is what what you wanted me to find?

if i start gnome again it works without problems

convert video files for a psp

bruenig, well worked before theupdate does’T work now , worth investigating tjedi, I don’T know what it could be

kitche, any chance you installed those via deb… I replace my sources.list with yours and its still not finding it….

is gusty gibbon LTS

jimmygoon, did you update?

Shishire, try avidemux

kitche, yep

i think not

thank you

Shishire, ffmpeg is a bit too complex for an other than crippled front end to be developed

is fiesty more stabler than dapper drake

ok

jimmygoon, no I just did a search in synaptic and it came right up

the front end would be just as complex as the command line

how do i set my AP as a preferred network? in other words, i don’t want it to automatically try to connect to other wireless AP’s

diabolical77, you don’t want it to do that even if connecting to the preferred AP fails?

kitche, gah! I’m out of ideas.. lemme search the packages.ubuntu.com page

Does Ubuntu run okay on laptops?

Thunderfox933, I dunno about that one, I couldnt get Dapper to install on my computer from a LIVE CD, but Fiesty installed just fine, but Fiesty doesnt recongize the existance of my CD Drive, where as my XP partition does

yes

hey… i booted up to ubuntu livecd and my wireless card, wmp54g worked fine, i connected, etc etc. just installed ubuntu, and it’s failing to work. on the livecd it showed up as ra0, but when i installed it showed up as ra1… “iwlist ra1 scan” seems to list my router, but when i do “iwconfig ra1 essid _my ssid_” it doesn’t seem to set it when i type “iwconfig” again to check…

correct. i want to basically set mine as the default unless i manually connect to others.

I’m thinking of getting a used laptop, but a friend of mine said that Linux has trouble on Laptops.

Can anyone tell me how to remove google earth with apt-get?

http://packages.ubuntu.com/cgi-bin/search_packages.pl?keywords=libboost&searchon=names&subword=1&version=feisty&release=all

Crustacean-Bob, how did you install it?

Thunderfox933, the way it works is that the lts are very stable and the in between lts are a little more edgy but generaly stable , so it very much depends on the features you use

He said that fedora linux wears out Laptop batteries faster.

Is 22 KB/s the norm for broadband?

Crustacean-Bob, sudo apt-get remove googleearth (if you installed it via apt)

I used… are you ready for this? automatix2

hey

jimmygoon, sure it does libboost-serialization-dev

and all are generally old versions of programs

wow, irc on my cell phone

Crustacean-Bob, google earth is not a apt-get apps, I think there is an uninstal bin in the googleearth folder in /home

kithce, that is the dev package, I need the library

linux does seem to drain them a bit faster…

Oh Thanks

If it’s only a bit that’s not really a problem I suppose.

Crustacean-Bob, you should be able to uninstall it with automatix then

emeriste, no, it depends on how you configure linux

Hm. Maybe they could make an Ubuntu specially for laptops.

how are u all

emeriste, like I can configure it to get anywhere from 2 hours to pushing 5 if I go serious powersave on my 12 cell

FIrst Id like to see an ubuntu that recongizes the existance of my cd drive

I suppose 2 hours is not so bad in the grand scheme of things.

hey… i booted up to ubuntu livecd and my wireless card, wmp54g worked fine, i connected, etc etc. just installed ubuntu, and it’s failing to work. on the livecd it showed up as ra0, but when i installed it showed up as ra1… “iwlist ra1 scan” seems to list my router, but when i do “iwconfig ra1 essid _my ssid_” it doesn’t seem to set it when i type “iwconfig” again to check…

Azerial, ubuntu is a bit pragmatic you need to demonstate the existance of your cd-drive with concreat proof bAzerial, ubuntu is a bit pragmatic you need to demonstate the existance of your cd-drive with concreat proof/b e

Hmm google earth doesn’t show up in Automatix2 uninstall list?

you just confused me pelo

Azerial, just forget it

Crustacean-Bob: Avoid automatix..

I think Im gonna have to try another Distro of Linux if I cant get this damn thing workin

emeriste, the laptop powersave stuff is dependent heavily on hardware for some of the more obscure stuff

Noted… thanks

I see.

Jack_Sparrow, he didnT’ , we’re trying to fix the problem

like ipw has some specialy power features that other cards don’t have

or worse …. be forced to use XP for EVERYTHING

How do I get rid of earth?

uggg

Yes, I saw that…

Crustacean-Bob, just wait for a bit, bush will get rid of the earth for you

!automatix | Crustacean-Bob we don’t support that

Crustacean-Bob we don’t support that: Automatix2 is a block of code which attempts to install some software. When it fails and breaks systems, we don’t provide support for it. A creditable analysis from a debian/ubuntu developer is here - http://mjg59.livejournal.com/77440.html (Additional information: /msg ubotu worksforme)

The only thing XP is good for is catching a virus…

Pelo, better joke

GoogleEarth caused my system to crash catastrophically. It wipped out everything. I know we aren’t supposed to say stuff like that about Linux but it’s the truth.

emeriste, google earth != linux

nickrud, law of averages

Crustacean-BOb Thats exactly why I want to have my bloody CD drive working

how do i format a drive?! as say ext2

i think im going back to windows

google earth did all that?

Bruenig - Yes but it was like the Linux Blue Screen of Death.

mapp, where does it saythat ?

emeriste, but it has absolutely nothing to do with linux

what do u mean where?

It crashed X and took me back to the login screen. Lots of data was lost.

So I can start using Linux, as my primary OS and not be tempted everyday to start using XP for everything until 7.10 is released in october

emeriste, its like saying “doing rm -rf /” destroys linux, damn linux for being so destructible

What do you mean it has nothing to do with Linux?

hello.. i need help becaus emy laptop doesn’t see my usb devices… i have a pastebin for dmesg…..http://pastebin.com/mc073f43

Crustacean-Bob, do locate googleearth | less . somewhere in there there may be an uninstall script listed

Bruenig - So when people castigate Windows for crashing is that likewise not really Windows fault?

emeriste, of course if you do stupid stuff, you are going to have stupid results, although the kernel was not involved at all nor was the OS design

mapp, where does it say that your partition is ext2 cause fsck reads ext3 as ext2

emeriste, no it is, the design opens itself up for that

!kernel

So you are saying that me installing Google Earth was doing something stupid?

kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named ‘Linux’) - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel. You shouldn’t have to compile one, but if you’re convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild

ah no, nowjere i just wanted to know how it is to format a drive

hi everyone — is there a way I can configure xchat gnome to send a given command on connecting to a particular irc server?

like set the partitions up, now i need to format it

mapp, try using gparted

emeriste, if you choose to run something yourself then it is your fault, if a virus gets on your computer and runs itself without you doing anything then that is not your fault really

So anybody willing to take a stab at helping me get my SATA CD/DVD Burner COmbo Drive working today 500th try at this is the charm right?

emeriste, if you download weird exes and run them, then that is not windows fault at all which is basically what you did here

mapp, partition should get formated when you set them up

Babble, Xchat-Network List, Edit button

Bruenig - I enjoy linux and ubuntu but I am a reasonable person and I just don’t think this is consistent.

later folks

yeah, I looked there. I can auto-join channels, but that’s it. I’d ideally like to add a bot login /msg command as well.

I ran Google Earth it’s not like I tried to install some software I found in a dark alley.

Google Earth is overrated

Babble, theres a box called Connect Command …

hmm, did I miss? (lemme look)

hello.. i need help becaus emy laptop doesn’t see my usb devices… i have a pastebin for dmesg…..http://pastebin.

Pfft! I’m sorry guys. This is the #ubuntu channel and God bless you for being so supportive of a great OS.

emeriste, google earth has certain hardware requirements, did you make sure you fit those?

Babble, this is xchat, not xchat-gnome by the way

ah, well, that won’t work. heh.

how do I find out which repository a file would be located?

But when Windows crashes everyone says that’s windows fault. When Ubuntu crashes that was just my fault for being so stupid to use Google Earth. lol

specificlly sbox-dtc

emeriste, you attacked linux, not ubuntu

is it easy/possible in xchat-gnome? (I’d rather not use generic xchat unless I have to)

emeriste, but yes, if a program tells you that you need hardware minimums and you run it anyways without having it, then that is on you

I’m not attacking anything and you are not being reasonable.

Babble, have you looked at irssi , it’s a text irc client that can clean you dishes I’m told

Anybody at all interested in helping me get Linux to recongize the existance of my SATA cd/dvd burner combo drive or am i still gonna be in the dark?

ah; no worries then.

italiano

It’s inconceivable that I dont have the hardware minimums.

I’d rather not give up gnome integration. I can just type. heh

is ubuntu better perfomance than xp home?

Azerial how much did you pay for the sata drive?

you have a problem with me Nick?

When you compile a program from source are all programs compiled basically the same?

personally, i find it to be more responsive

uhhh 33 dollars if I remember right

Azerial, no, it’s your problem, it scares me

YMMV

neat

probably, but it is *free*

Crustacean - You mean the process for doing it?

My problem has stumped EVERYONE ive asked about it

can i set up raid on ubuntu?

emeriste, and also realize that google earth is not even a native linux application, it is a somewhat modified windows one that is run with wine

azerial what is the speed of the drive?

anyone know how to solve this error? http://pastebin.com/mc073f43 …

can someone help me with my wifi problem?

I’ve never done it, but I understand it can be done

But its a MAJOR problem cause its my ONLY disk drive and Well Having an Opererating system that cant recongize that your CD Drive exists is well…pointless

Bruenig - Excuses excuses.

300mb/s?

i installed wine today but have no idea how to utilize it.

Kevin, let me get back to you with that I need to look it up I think its 1.5gb/s

emeriste, you don’t know what you are talking about that is my only problem, the attacks on windows by people who are competent are based on web design flaws

Bruenig — I am a reasonable person and I choose to use Linux. I believe it is better. But having different standards is just being a fanboy.

emeriste, your attack is based on user error which no OS can ever fully prevent

did you get ur manual

emeriste, how are my standards different

I didn’t make any error. I just installed Google Earth and ran it. Where’s the error in that?

this guy is a M$ troll.

Oh good lord.

can somebody help me with my wifi problem?

emeriste, windows has design flaws, linux not so much

oh, I know with the sata hard drives you have to use a jumper to disable the 300mb/s speed if your motherboard is only 150mb/s

is there anyone around that could help me with a problem i am having using mencoder, dvdautor, and mkisofs.

his mobo is 3 capable i alreadfy looked it up

ahh that’s about all I know

did you get ur manual

emeriste, if an application sucks, then it is the application’s fault, it is not linux’s fault

biostar does not list ur manualonline

neon, I found something called IDE controller and it had settings for my SATA Device, such as IDE, Raid, something else I think itw as SCHI or something like that

Bruenig — Okay thank you I understand now. When Windows crashes that’s a design flaw. When secure linux web hosting crashes it was my fault. Understood. lol

please help me fix my usb detection…. i really need it

!off-topic

Sorry, I don’t know anything about off-topic - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi

that’s what i was talking abiut

u do not have to have raid

please don’t abuse that all you can both go

Oh and by the way Neon, my mobo manual…. its in the attic

eddiestone, try asking on #edubuntu , they’d be more likely to know

i have a AMD AthlonX2 4200+ 2gb 800mhz memory 320gb and 80gb hard drive and GEforece 7950GT 512mb what would ubuntu run like?

u can look in ur bios and tell what it is set to also what options are there

I think it was IDE Controller or something I should of wrote it down I couldnt find ANYTHING like what you were talking about though

all u have to do is go to ur bios and look

I looked though it up and down couldnt find it

it would rock your ass

emeriste, you are an idiot though, I have no problem with you being an adult, but perhaps you shouldn’t speak on stuff that you have not the slight bit of competence in. Talk about paper prices or whatever piece of shit job you do, not about how a bad application means that an OS has problems.

I wish you were here to show me what to do IM a super newb I need hand holding

has anyone enabled the hfs writing support to write on macintosh hard disks?

errr. i cant say that. games that were built for windows could run under wine or cedega. cedega being a ripoff and wine being free.

It only works if you disable journaling

i have an abit with an ip35 and a asus with a i680 your bios can play a big role when setting ur devices in linus i have another msi amd mobo that i have to tell it in the bios that i used linux for the onboard graphics to work see what i mean

the important thing if you want to run special win-apps is to look on the wine app-db

i got the dual boot to work.. the problem was that all the partitions were mounted to /media.. i edited the windows partitions to /windows & /dos & reformated the / partition reinstalled off the live cd & on reboot got the grub boot menu

whats the address?

Topham, or you could just dual boot with XP like I do

winehq.org i think

fed up of xp its crap

I agree with you there

the pre-installed one with ubuntu?

welcome to the club

ONLY reason Im keeping it is because I want to play games and Wine isnt 100% effective

i have Call of Duty but will these type of games play on linux?

for everything

No, you have to disable journaling on the hfs+ partition Which you can only do from OS X

the fixes you were showing me earlier wouldn’t work becuase the windows mount points were messed up causing the linux mount points to be messed up as well.. so grub wasn’t installed to the default location for the tutorials to work

Id rather have a windows partition I can switch to and load up a game from it instead of troubling myself with the what if wine dosent do it for me

are you still here? i got google earth on, but every time i try to zoom on an area, i get some ‘panoramia’ snapshot, and then screenfreeze….

ok thanks Amaranth

how do I install a .deb file by command line?

Topham i dont really game so i cant really say but with your type of hardware, it wont be a problem

!dpkg

dpkg is the Debian package maintenance system, which together with apt forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit.

Amaranth, a guy asked for it; then I thought it didn’t go through; then he just came back and asked again

there are some options that go with dpgk, i believe to install it, you would go ‘dpkg -i package’…I think

whats the link so i can see what games etc work with linux?

 

Secure business

 

there are people that get just about anything working via wine. there are guys who run steam and all the source games, etc. i tried it and gave up long ago

i think soothsayer may have left, can you help me with this? soothsayer: are you still here? i got google earth on, but every time i try to zoom on an area, i get some ‘panoramia’ snapshot, then screenfreeze…

winehq.org look for appdb in the menu, then search from there

I just put ubuntu on my laptop, but I can vleh, I just put ubuntu on my laptop, and I can see my windows network but cant access it, even with the windows comp admin username/pass, whats up? this is after installing samba too

Does anyone know why when I enable Beryl my keyboard shortcuts don’t work anymore?

SpudDogg, your keyboard shortcuts are handled by the window manager and you’ve changed window managers; look in emerald theme manager for another config

how do I add a cursor set in gnome?

cool, i’ll have a look. thanks

unfortunately, it seems Call of duty is not very functional.

DjViper, iirc just drop the tar.gz onto your theme manager window

tried that, didn’t work said it was the wrong format or something found them on gnome-look.org

sounds like google earth is broken

DjViper, then try extracting them into ~/.icons

okay that worked, thanks a lot

DjViper, yw

hey i have been trying to get sound to play on my pc but its still hopless.

What’s a good program to monitor cpu/mem usage?

My On-board card has been detected and the mic on it works,

A task manager would be nice too..

z0rz, I just use the gnome system monitor applet;

Xfce 4 Taskmanager?

looking for someone to help me fix the xorg drivers when you try to install Ubuntu 7.04. I found what I need to type to fix em but the problem is that I can’t access recovery mode when I boot on the live CD and try to install.

Where’s that at?

hola

z0rz, it has a quick link to the system monitor as well. Right click panel, add to panel

ok, gotta work on it later i guess … too tired now

hablan español =O?

Would anyone know why my mic would work but not my playback?

but thanks just the same

Is ubuntu’s default includedir /usr/include or /usr/local/include?

hola u.u

!es | esteban

Si busca ayuda en Español por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, allí obtendrá mas ayuda.

jimmygoon, /usr/include

nickrud, thanks

=D

hey

is there something I have to do in particular to a windows network it access it with ubuntu?

is there a french speaking channel about ubuntu?

jimmygoon, /usr/local theoretically should never be touched by the distribution, exept maybe to create some directory hierarchies

!fr | bobby

Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l’aide et de la discussion en francais.

!fr

no, but you need samba on your linux machine afaik

yeah i grabbed that

ok

and i can see the network and the computer i want to access

ok?

nickrud, oh, so if I’m install boost should I do it in /usr/local/include and just point that out to my compiler?

so i type in the admin user and pass when it asks for it but doesnt accept it

jimmygoon, exactly, that’s what it’s for. A lot of poeple keep /usr/local on a separate partition so a reinstall won’t affect their compiled stuff

make sure you’re using the correct domain

does sound work on realtek AC97

nickrud, okay, well then I will do that nickrud, thanks

mshome? would caps affect that

yes

nickrud, same priciple for /usr/lib and /usr/local/lib?

jimmygoon, yes

ok

it could be ‘WORKGROUP’ too

thanks alot ill try that alright

jimmygoon, most configure scripts will automatically put stuff in /usr/local, unless you override

nickrud, yeah, I was about to override it though

On the 7.04 cd are there any HFS utilities?

hfs?

filesystem

oh

does sound work on realtek AC97

i dont think so by default. . . if you mean like partitioning, and reading ntfs

where can i download the default aim smileys for pidgin?

ok i asked in ubuntu-effects, there isnt currently any active people responding. When i started up Compiz….my titlebars disappeared, how do i fix that?

i could be wrong . . . i lost my cd a while ago efface efface, sudo apt-get install gtk-window-decorator gtk-window-decorator –replace

hmm cant find that package

lemme double check the package name

efface, feisty?

sometimes

sudo apt-get install libdecoration0

hi all. is it possible to create a symlink that has multiple directory targets?

I am trying to setup a VPN server on my Winxp machine (that hosts all my files).. and the client on my ubuntu machine. How can I setup a VPN server on my winxp box if comcast assigns me a dynamic IP addy?

meh when I had that problem, I’d use the beryl dropdown menu from the notification area and select restart window decorator, or some title to that effect

I’ve been getting into this Conkey, wondering where I can find a weather script.

ok after i install that do i restart compiz?

no, just alt + f2 to bring up the run window

Well, I still cant get my widescreen working correctly…

and type ‘gtk-window-decorator –replace’ without quotes

says thats not installed ah its compiz-gnome

umm can som1 tell me how i can uodat 5.1 to 7.1 without disk

has anyone gotten something like autoGK working with wine?

I saw people had some problems with Google Earth so I just downloaded and it installed and runs with no problems here using Feisty…

efface, sorry. . . was having trouble remembering what package the gtk-window-decorator comes in. . . rusty, i dont use beryl/compiz any longer due to the fact i can’t play video while it’s running

how do i update to 7.1 from 5.1

hardware issue?

computer uses nvidia and ubuntu doesn’t support nvidia yet

!upgrade | richard

For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes

nvidia works fine here

wow, I never realized this. Ubuntu is actually kind of awesome. It doesn’t deserve a fraction of the flak it gets.

mine works fine normally, i just have to have it enabled through the restricted drivers manager

Hi all .. Anyone up on how to toss the MythBuntu packages on an Ubuntu install? MythBuntu just isn’t working with my TV set …

looking for help accessing the recovery mode when booting from Ubuntu 7.04 live cd. This is related to fix the Xorg drivers when installing Ubuntu on a MBP

or .. Has anyone used LinuxMCE vs MythBuntu? I love the idea of mythbuntu but it just doesn’t get along with my junk haven’t tried LinuxMCE (I’m not a fan of KDE) but it has some good reviews too .

can ubuntu use my wifi card with the full 108Mb/s instead of 54Mb/s

I remember reading about that somewhere, but honestly can’t remember where… Seems if you used ndiswrapper vs the opensource driver you got the full speed or 54 .. bI remember reading about that somewhere, but honestly can’t remember where… Seems if you used ndiswrapper vs the opensource driver you got the full speed or 54 ../b

When you boot ubuntu, it shows “ubuntu”, the logo, and a scrollbar, all on a black screen. Looks like vista, actually. How hard is it to change that?

!usplash | Zemus

To select the usplash artwork you want, use “sudo update-alternatives –config usplash-artwork.so && sudo update-initramfs -u” - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplashCustomizationHowto for adding your custom artwork

lol .. OR, Vista looks like Ubuntu .. lol

nickrud, thank you

it really isnt if you know how to use the terminal

NineTeen67Comet, hehehe. I think vista looks like modded xp.

ditto but works like ME

What package do I need to install to get bzlib.h?

libbz2-dev

lol do true vista sucks

While you’re doing that, I’ll do an apt-file run here for you

nickrud, no way!. thats awesome

jimmygoon, libbz2-dev

nickrud, yuppers! thanks, you too Flannel how long is apt-file update going to take?

I just installed a legacy version of apache. I did so using the deb package built for Ubuntu. It said package successfully installed but I can figure out where the apache path is or if it is running. Can anyone help me

you can always just use packages.ubuntu.com (scroll down to the second search box)

jimmygoon, a while, it downloads a pretty big database. Not terribly long, though

Flannel, whats funny is I was using that a few minutes ago for a different intent ,and that didn’t even occur to me

maestrojed, dpkg -L package will tell you where the files went

morning

ari_stress, where are you at? its evening for me

Does someone want to help me enable wifi? The wifi button on my laptop won’t even come on. It’s a presario v2000.

maestrojed, and /var/www is the default location for files to serv

wow…um thats not good souds like hardware

are you saying /var/www is default webroot or the default location that apache was installed in

i need help

So what all do you do on linux, I mean you can’t really game, what else is there to do? Do you use linux to program?

need some help with ubuntu and my builtin wift card.

maestrojed, webroot. in general (assuming they used standard locations) your config will be in /etc

kenji88, works fine in windows

hopender, work

Work =O?

which is faster, qemu or VMware?

lol

um…well have you tried to make a new connection?

What do you work on?

hi guys, what command to use to know which packages installed in my system?

did it and i tried to use ndiswrapper but it wouldnt load from the live cd

dpkg -l (it’s long)

kenji88, vaguely, though I don’t really know what I’m doing. And I have a feeling that the wifi won’t work until the wifi button comes on, but I might be wrong.

thanks Flannel

thank you. Interesting the dpkg command you told me says the package is not installed yet if I double click on the package it says it is

maestrojed, yes, Verrry Interesting

i had a presario, the light didnt work with mine either

ari_stress, dpkg -l | grep ^ii

what file has the stuff that says what to do on control alt del

I found a way to get the light to reflect your connection, but haven’t found that link in months .. My wifes dv4000 doesn’t come on either .. I just have to “feel” it ..

erm, gotta get faster

i now have an acer 5100 and the wifi wont work at all. lights on and shinning bright

hanasaki, /etc/event.d/control-alt-delete

wqhat happend to inittabl

i really want to mess with compiz, maybe flip from vista

hanasaki, ubuntu is using a different method, I think it’s called upstart

!upstart

Upstart is meant to replace the old Sys V Init system with an event-driven init model. For more information please see: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/

hi, I’m having issues viewing the folder I shared through samba in my samba:/// location

thanks

how do i find the Ubuntu package manager ??

Does anyone want to help me try and get wifi up with feisty fawn? I don’t really know what I’m doing. And the wifi button won’t come on, though it works under windows.

the samba:/// just shows completely empty

i just tried running windows XP through qemu on my ubunutu box, which has a 2.4ghz proccessor, and it was basically unusable.

is there any alternatives to VMWare for ubuntu?

xen

whiter, virtualbox

administration

!virtualizers | whiter

I run it via VirtualBox and it’s pretty much fine .. Have issues using my USB stick though ..

There are several solutions for running other operating systems (or their programs) inside Ubuntu, while using the native CPU as much as possible: !QEmu (with !KQemu or !qvm86), !VirtualBox, !VMWare, as well as !WINE and !Cedega for Windows applications

ty

NineTeen67Comet, what speed proccessor you got?

add/remove is a very simplified version of it though

2.4ghz, 1gig ram and 533fsb ..

NineTeen67Comet, i’ve no idea what my fsb speed is, but how much ram do you assign?

I give XP 512 (half of what I have) but I’ve ran it on something like 196 and it did “okay” .. I only used it for MS Projects (No *Nix equiv) ..

NineTeen67Comet, okay, well i’ve only got 758, so assigning any more than 512 is not gonna be easy. thanks for the info

Does anyone want to help me try and get wifi up with feisty fawn? I don’t really know what I’m doing. And the wifi button won’t come on, though it works under windows.

looking for someone running ubuntu on a macbookpro?! please!?

I’d hand it 256, that should run it fine .. There is no 3D when emulated though .. so if you are planing on running a game that probibly won’t do so good

NineTeen67Comet, have you read the USB section in here/ “https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox“

do you have a acer laptop ?

NineTeen67Comet, i wanted to run AOE2

I do, but it is via Parallels ..

zaack^, no, I have a compaq presario v2000.

NineTeen67Comet, does AOE2 require 3d? i don’t even know.

!wifi

Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs

Damn, I wish someone else had done that.

yes, the first thing to do is read what zemus told you

3D is not possible when emulated .. you would have to get it going in either Wine or Cedega’s Transgaming ..

#ubuntu-es

Than, google your laptop and see the tutorial people did to configure their connexion than, search google again, and then, ask : 0

Anyone here instal on a macbook

mmm ok nvm … i’m following this tutorial https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MacBookProFeisty : stuck at the Xorg drivers fixing thing

My keyboard doesnt work at the livecd menu and the countdown does not do anything once it hits zero

How do I get 7.04 to stop hanging on “Configuring Network Interfaces” at boot? It’s absurd to wait for more than a minute.

That is how I was going to do it too .. I like how rEFlt allows you to choose your OS on boot w/out BootCamp’s holding C down .. I haven’t done it yet though ..

is urs usb keyboard????

seems to work good, but cant get the screen to work for the installation

well Its on a laptop

might have to toss it on via CLI (Alternative install) then set up X with dpkg-reconfivure -phigh xserver-xorg ..

so after i install samba how do i connect to a windows network?

maybe dunno what u talking about tho hehe im really newb to linux n stff

Hello.

@mybrainiawaffle try clicking on place, then network

any musicians around here?

alto sax ?

*places

that count?

aha .. So you have the live desktop cd .. I usually use the Alternative install CD as it usually installs faster for me, and doesn’t require much in the way of resources .. Then when I reboot after it is all said and done, I use Command Line to get everything that failed on boot fixed ..

hey, can anyone here help me with installation? i have a problem.

mmm ok well the thing is that i cant access the recovery mode like they say in the tutorial… ill try to get the CLI

victim, more like jackd and friends

Any idea why my sound wont work in Gnome yet does in XFCE?

i burnt the image to the cd, and i get to the ubuntu install screen, and i hit “install ubuntu”, and it goes to a screen with a moving bar. instead of moving along with the installation, it gives me a command screen.

I don’t know how to access the recovery via the live desktop either ..

I’m using a laptop and have a Synaptics touchpad driver, and when i type, my palm always ends up hitting it and it moves my cursor or changes windows on me, how can i disable the touchpad?

does anyone know where QEMU stores image files it creates by default?

: k ill work it out with CLI

I ve prb in Beryl prog

I’m having a little trouble here trying to set the jack daemon to avoid xruns to happend… I tried nearly every combination of samples/frequency rates, etc. Anyone can give a hand on that?

I’ve just updated to the recent Linux upgrades, and now my sound stopped working.

my machine is not booting and i’m getting a error can

can anyone help with that?

t

@ bobby I believe it’s in the home folder

brownie17, man certainly knows

access tty; job control turned off sorry

RickH, i had that problen when i did a kernel update. i’m now using the earlier kernel version

Off to play with mythtv and duke it out with that headache of an application .. sigh

how do I revert?

what ya mean?

my machine will not boot and I’m getting the error can’t access tty; job control turned off.

home

I just got done installing the OS

that is the same error i am getting, tic

really.

but i havent fully installed yet

Is there an alternative to synergy that does all synergy does, but add’s the ability to transfer files?

RickH, in my grub boot list the old kernel is still listed

err ok searching it hehe

I’ll check

any idea what sets off the tidal wave effect in beryl, it’s kind of cool, but I never know what sets it off?

anyone knows if I must run jackd in realtime mode to avoid xruns? or is it just a matter of tweaking?

no idea what u talking about lol

I installed mediawiki. It works over http. I want it to work over https. I followed the apache2 https instructions. I get empty documents from apache2 for mediawiki pages that work fine over http.

I am currently logged in to my other pc via SSh. WHat command do I use to copy a file from the remote pc to the pc I am currently working on?

I think it’s when someone talks to me directly, that just set it off

use scp

scp?

no idea what u talking about lol

” access tty; job control turned off” is showing up when i try to install ubuntu?

that didn’t work

scp file user@host:/directory/where/you/wish/to/send

scp like the cp command in linux

oh well

ah, thanks

!open-ssh

Sorry, I don’t know anything about open-ssh - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi

how can you figure out what /dev/ your cdrom is?

!find ssh

openssh-client, openssh-server, ssh, ssh-askpass-gnome, aolserver4-nssha1 (and 21 others)

!openssh-client

Sorry, I don’t know anything about openssh-client - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi

wtf

!openssh-server

Sorry, I don’t know anything about openssh-server - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi

thats silly !ssh

SSH is the Secure SHell protocol. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto for usage. Putty is a nice SSH client for Windows; it can be found at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/

ubotu is such a lame ass

lol

i agree

anyone know??? access tty; job control turned off

how can you figure out what /dev/ your cdrom is? nvm

SexyBoBo, look at the last lines in /etc/fstab

How can I create a window version of X with 3d accel support w/o losing my current Xgl session and compiz?

(if it was correctly detected)

Strav, ty

nobody know?

that’s how it goes and everybody knows

i get the command line whenever i try to install ubuntu.

Anyone have a guide to playing WoW on Ubuntu?

command line installer or command line simply?

install crossover office and you can play wow

Well I got wow running with wine…

for help with “can’t acess tty” in Feisty, see: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=421588&highlight=tty+job+control.

it is just a normal looking command prompt

then y do u need a guide

It looks great.. but when I leave wow, Xgl has apparently died and metacity has taken it’s place

o

that’s because I create a new X session to run WoW

thank you!!!

Is there an advanced room for #ubuntu users that want to do more than get it installed?

now that compiz attracted enough people, I think we should disable it.

I’m running beryl but have no title bars. can anyone help me out?

run emerald –replace

shawn34, run emerald –replace yeah

this is because you don’t have a window decorator loaded.

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WorldofWarcraft

emerald is a good choice

@shawn do u have emerald installed

This is too awesome for words. http://blog.chip.de/chip-linux-blog/wp-content/uploads/2007/05/hacking-ubuntu.jpg

Can Ubuntu be used instead of Xubuntu as a thin client?

ok since i been told that 2 sata hd on linux raid will outperform my current setup of 1 single sata hd i will be off for a little while to install ubuntu on my two raptors using linux raid tho if i do not get any performance i’ll be piss

Hi, I have an old Dell Optiplex GX150 (Pentium 3) on which 7.04 is listing the IDE drive as /dev/sda - is that normal under Ubuntu? I would like to use hdparm but of course I can’t.

Joseph_K, yes

there is something called ‘linux terminal server’ installed by default in edubuntu or available as a package i believe

Centaur5, I did lots of testing and I got very good time response with gnome using xrdp

this isn’t working for me

What is xrdp?

@shawn sudo aptitude install emerald emerald-themes

I need something to do with 2 pc’s idling most of the time, one is Windows XP Home, and one is Ubuntu.

OK, that was simple, thanks. Do you know why it is like that?

and hit alt+f2 and type emerald –replace &

It’s another protocol (wonder if I spelled it right), faster than xdmcp or X window redirection via ssh

Oh, I used the LTSP server install on the Xubuntu cd but the I used an Ubuntu alt cd when I setup the ltsp-client. Need to know if that was a no no.

why is cedega not a once-off cost?

spktps50, already have them installed

Joseph_K, no, i have an Acer laptop

spktps50, not working

brownie17, you’ll hve to ask them

you can use this room to talk about more than just basic ubuntu stuff i believe

Well if the client machines are fairly quick should I still be concerned about using a low memory X manager?

run replace in terminal and tell me what it prints out

you mean run something in the background? there is for example tor http://tor.eff.org and then the seti alien signal thing

“murrine”

I am trying to setup a VPN server on my Winxp machine (that hosts all my files).. and the client on my ubuntu machine. How can I setup a VPN server on my winxp box if comcast assigns me a dynamic dedicated ip hosting addy?

does anyone know if cedega works for age of empires 2?

dug, like servers, or anthing. anything*

plasmid, for windows stuff ask in ##windows

“murrine”

Hello..

I have apache/php/perl/mysql/etc… on them

plasmid - try dyndns.org for your IP problem

oh, there is like apache2 web server, ssh server, etc. or a game server

http://games.cedega.com/gamesdb/

why are IDE devices listed as sda?

brownie17, I’m sure there is a cedega channel or you can try and check on the cedega site to seeif they have a db of apps

Centaur5, well if you say that you have a cheap maching as your X server, I think I can still handle well 2 or 3 thin clients… at least.

some people use their extra or non-active pc to run a media server, like mythtv

This may be way to general of a question. But I have installed apache (a legacy version) which I have test and it is working. I just installed a legacy version of PHP. How do I get those two to work together?

spktps50, “emerald-themes is already the newest version.”

I have someone who needs to connect to my desktop remotely but I am not sure why they cannot… anyone know about the remote desktop option?

allready got a PC dedicated to that. w/ 10tb of disk and everything

ubotu version

To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type « lsb_release -a » in a !shell

Centaur5, check this out while I’m trying to find you a set of application that use it as a backend http://xrdp.sourceforge.net/

rafaelscj, I know there is a reason for it you can probably find it in the forum

Evanlec, what if I already own the domain ..e.g. www.example.org?

I can’t view my samba share on my ubuntu machine, I’ve added the folder, but when I check samba:/// it is empty

sessions and add beryl-manager and after that emerald –replace & ; then control alt backspace and log in to see if it works

I can’t relate to your problem then good luck finding something to do with all your pc’s

plasmid u should be able to configure the domain at dyndns.org as well i believe

there this is from what I got the best response time: http://freenx.berlios.de/

can someone please help me with configure

Enul, configure of what ?

Okay, well my server is an Athlon 3500 and the clients are 3000 so I was wondering if I can use gnome or would that be bad?

Can someone offer some help or direction about “Remote Desktop”

pelo i’m trying to compile some drivers and configure is giving me fits

your firewall/router might be blocking the outside connection to your computer maybe

Evanlec, but the IP addy is being tied to a web server that ties to my asterisk server… is a vpn mutually exclusive?

dug, how can I check that?

Centaur5, Well you should compare both, all I can say is that I got very good results with gnome using freenx

Enul, what kind of error msg are you getting ?

@shawn results?

freenx is fast bar none

Package requirements (gtk+-2.0 libxml-2.0) were not met.

plasmid you want your domain to point to your machine?

@lds_trooper I know it uses vnc, so you need to use a vnc client to access it

Okay, well for some reason my clients aren’t booting they’re just stuck at the boot splash page.

I haven’t used remote desktop, but to open a port/hole in your router, you usually connect to it via your web browser, to http://192.168.0.1/ or some similar address (check manual for your router or website)

sgtkwol, the person needing to connect has vnc

How can I increase the overall brightness in Xubuntu? Videos on YouTube look too dark. The brightness setting on my monitor is set to the maximun; however, in Windows I could get my screen brighter. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Evanlec, it already does. It pops up my trixbox webpage.

Centaur5, was a while I played with freenx. rtfm

dug thanks

@lds what kind of router do u have

did you search for libgtk and libxml (-dev) packages to install?

plasmid so whats the issue then?

is there a way to run 2 Ubuntu PC’s in parallel, where each like could do a portion of the processing?

ok, wasn’t sure how far along you were in setting it up

spktps50, not using a router

sorry I’m a frenchie. fast bar none?

i dont even know where to search for them dug

Evanlec, the issue is… HOW do I setup a VPN server on my winxp box.

Enul, that’s what ./configure is for, it tells you what the libs are missing for you to install and run the apps open up synaptic search for the pacakges listed and install them, then run ./configure again for the next one , repeat until you go throught ./configure whitout errors, you will probably need to install the -dev package that match the search as well

plasmid, i dont know anything about vpn sorry

are you mormon?

lol

haha

you can go to system-administration-synaptic package manager and search for libxml or libgtk, etc., install -dev packages

Alright, thanks for the info. I’ll try to figure out why it isn’t quite working.

then u dont need to port forward because it should connect right to ur comp
