[05:17] linux_galore: keep it nice please [05:17] agwibowo: would need to see the entire XFree86.0.log and XF86Config-4 [05:17] linux_galore, debian at least the stable distribution has a different focus than Ubuntu. That wasn't very nice [05:17] daniels: can i give it to you? [05:17] I know Im poking fun [05:18] linux_galore: it's unnecessary, and easily misunderstood.

[05:21] but here's the kicker: /sometimes/ it works just fine [05:21] could be hardware related [05:21] Everything is fine until I get to "Installing the base system" [05:21] agwibowo: sure [05:22] yeah, i'm thinking its a problem with 2.6 kernel support of my motherboard, then again someone else said they had the same board and it worked fine [05:22] It moves right along until it gets to 85 percent. Then it stays there for a looooong time. [05:22] if tried all kinds of combos with my hardware and the error does not go away for good [05:22] mkerby, could it be a problem with the media [05:22] most installer errors generally come back to a problem in burning === Cam [~cam@ppp138-67.lns1.adl2.internode.on.net] has joined #ubuntu [05:22] Then it says "No installable kernal was found in the defined APT packages".

[05:25] I'm on the other machine which has Windows XP [05:25] yer, im trying to think of how to reverse this process [05:25] without a complete system re-install [05:26] mkerby, run this on the iso image http://winmd5sum.solidblue.biz/ [05:26] and check to see that it matches that of the file on the site [05:26] Cam: logout and select gnome in the login screen as the desktop [05:26] i am in gnome [05:27] ok fixed [05:27] linux_galore: gnome has lost all its defaults [05:27] Cam: aaah strange ....

[05:49] his attitude was I dont care what your problem is I use gentoo and you should be using "emerge" Im like ?? [05:50] yeah, the most useful linux gurus are also the most irritating, take bob2 for example ;) but when you spend so much time helping people that aren't doing what you tell them it can start making you pretty grumpy [05:50] I'm irritating?

I can understand. ;-D [05:52] though I couldn't see caleb going off like that, so I doubt it. plus I think #kde is intended more fore devs [05:53] caleb rings a bell.... === mroth [~mroth@mroth.user] has joined #ubuntu [05:53] Im like yeah Im going to swap to gentoo to please you.....

[05:56] so the -3 and -4 releases are Ubuntu packages? [05:56] yes [05:56] why would they still offer the -3 package? [05:56] HrdwrBoB: are the packages included in a releases relatively new (not the lastest-just-of-beta version, but decently new, as redhat was always lagging behind)? [05:56] kde does work beautifully under gentoo, but I don't think I'd give that as a first option [05:57] bob2, they are far outnumbered by helpful Gentoo users though [05:57] HrdwrBoB: actually that would be kind of hard.

[06:37] I want to get rid of both ubuntu and grub [06:37] ubuntu stinks [06:37] Linuxnoob: not sure in xp, but it used to be "fdisk /mbr" from windows [06:37] Linuxnoob: Sorry, I don't know anyting about Winodws.

[06:39] write [06:39] DanielC: sudo makes more sense than using root [06:39] cause Im installin qt and it asks me to add some patch to .profile [06:39] Linuxnoob, and try mepis :D [06:39] path [06:39] DanielC: errr.. not sure.... but i guess your reason seems to be the one.. i'm not ubuntu developer :P [06:39] HrdwrBoB: why? I'm eager to know. [06:39] linuxnoob: no, that wasn't very polite, but: are you dual-booting? [06:40] I am dual booting [06:40] DanielC: more passwords, more complication, more tendency to run thigns that ought not to be root as root [06:40] binReappr: maybe sudo vim ~/.profile [06:40] it was polite - just not popular [06:40] HrdwrBoB: good good. [06:41] Linuxnoob: Saying that xxx stinks is not polite.

[06:41] Linuxnoob: In any event, there must be a Windows program to repartition your disk and rewrite the MBR. [06:42] plus its not very smart to say an os stinks when that's the title of the channel you're in then ask for help [06:42] k [06:42] I'll see what I can come up with [06:42] Linuxnoob: BootMagic? PartitionMagic? How do Windows uers partition? [06:42] actually I can load it in text editor, just it wont let me do any changes [06:42] don't know how windows users partition [06:42] I'm used to fedora [06:42] thats why I want to change the attribs but dont know the command === chibifs [~chibifs@pcp0010567521pcs.monroe01.mi.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu [06:42] Linuxnoob, read this look at Response Number 3 http://www.computing.net/linux/wwwboard/forum/26939.html [06:42] noob: how big is your linux partition?

[06:55] cam: any, i believe... i think apt just checks to see if the version currently in the repositories is newer than installed [06:56] highdesertshephe: you don't need to, it should be auto detected [06:56] Run sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86 in a terminal. === cody_ [~cody@cs68201115-202.gt.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu [06:56] sorry I know I'm a fool, but what is the apt-get to install gcc?

[07:01] Search for 'Break' on the Ubuntu site, Cam. [07:01] Cam: what are you looking for?

You might not want to update daily, or you'll find yourself with broken system :P [07:06] how well does the upgrade process go down? [07:06] Cam: it mostly works but recently things like nvidia broke (ish) [07:06] yer im ati ;) [07:06] i'm convinced the problem i'm having with ubuntu setup is a conflict with my motherboard... anybody mind going through my bios to see if the conflict might be avoidable using it? [07:06] and im not even using the official drivers yet [07:07] jintonic - Disable anything ACPI or Plug and Play related. [07:07] lol stuff it === IvyCQHome [~Sir@c906300c.virtua.com.br] has joined #ubuntu [07:07] ill do it neway [07:07] how about "apic mode" [07:08] you just change everything in the repositories from warty to hoary right? [07:08] Apic should probably be enabled. [07:08] im a mad man! [07:08] Adds extra IRQ's [07:08] Cam - Make sure you run the command apt-get dist-upgrade, not just apt-get upgrade. [07:09] sure [07:09] Turn off all repositories except for hoary main and restricted, as well. [07:09] k [07:09] Or things could get messy :P [07:09] agp aperture size, fast write support, data transfer rate, system bios cacheable, video ram cacheable?

Subsections should all go on one line. [07:12] ok [07:12] You could make that line main restricted universe multiverse and it would be the same as having seperate entries. [07:12] YES! [07:12] suggested that i close xchat? [07:12] ;) [07:12] and i'll bet fast write is the reason why it wasnt working [07:12] It work, jin? [07:12] yeah [07:13] lol. bye! [07:13] c u on the other side [07:13] Cam - Don't run X at all while doing the dist-upgrade [07:13] but it could be a fluke (sometimes [rare] it would work) [07:13] ok [07:13] set the init level? [07:13] it's completely and utterly fine to run X while doing dist-upgrade [07:13] No, CTRL+ALT+F1 , login, sudo killall gdm [07:13] then run it, then reboot. :o [07:14] um [07:14] Cam: it's fine to run dist-upgrade in X whiel you have x-chat or whatever open [07:14] you don't need to do that [07:14] bob2 - Yes, it is, but he needs to restart anyway for the new Xserver and kernel :P === deadshell [~deadsy@ool-44c44e58.dyn.optonline.net] has joined #ubuntu [07:15] chibifs: you don't need to restart for a new X server [07:15] You need to restart X to use the new X server >.> [07:15] ill need to re-compile ndiswrapper for the new kernel correct? [07:15] right [07:15] which you can do after the upgrade is complete [07:15] yep cool [07:15] here goes nothing [07:16] I'm aware. I just want him to be safe. :o [07:16] the only thing that will break is firefox and possibly gnome-panel [07:17] lovely. [07:17] nm HrdwrBoB, your solution worked.

[07:18] please stop giving such terrible advice [07:18] After. :/ [07:18] Bob, the configuration files between gnome versions always cause problems :/ [07:19] no, not "always" [07:19] for instance, I upgraded just fine [07:19] if they break, Cam can file a bug and decide if he/she's willing to lose all that config info or not [07:21] Blah.
