| ohgood | MobyTurbo: if you know of a sources.list that includes 2.6.10 headers, i'll bite, otherwise... | 01:08 |
| ogra | mfraase, note that you need to log out and in again to make it active | 01:08 |
| thoreauputic | HillTop: are you using hoary? | 01:09 |
| lunitik | marcin_ant: haha... well... you can use 'smb://localhost/' or 'smb://ipaddr/' | 01:09 |
| mfraase | ogra, lunitik, I got it to work by copying the *.theme file to ~/.icons/default/ so long as that doesn't screw anything else up, I'm satisfied. But this is a bug in the preview distribution | 01:09 |
| bdr | armando: what's the problem with it? | 01:09 |
| andrewski | ohgood: you don't need headers! | 01:09 |
| MobyTurbo | ohgood, unfortunately I'm running warty, I value stability, so I can't give you much x.org advice. | 01:09 |
| Dakko | If I upgrade from Warty to Hoary, will I have to re-configure ndiswrapper and its drivers/configuration? | 01:09 |
| ohgood | andrewski: it's starting to look like it does. | 01:09 |
| lunitik | mfraase: you're telling the right person then... he's the maintainer :) | 01:09 |
| armando | bdr: its not detecting it as a wireless card. Its under the device list at the bottom but says its unknown. | 01:09 |
| thoreauputic | HillTop: cat /etc/issue to see if you have warty or hoary | 01:09 |
| HillTop | thoreauputic, Warty. And I found a window under other stuff: named Office with what I needed next. So onward.... :) | 01:09 |

| andrewski | ohgood: i've only said it a handful of times.... | 01:10 |
| MobyTurbo | ohgood, you only need headers if you're installing the nvidia.com driver. | 01:10 |
| ogra | mfraase, so you made it right then ;) | 01:10 |
| ohgood | andrewski: i've heard you. | 01:10 |
| armando | bdr: ok, im on a major learning curve. Ive heard of that but how do I install/use ndiswrapper? | 01:10 |
| lunitik | marcin_ant: I didn't say smb:///localhost | 01:11 |
| ogra | mfraase, i'll look at it, if there is really a bug, thanks for reporting :) | 01:11 |
| MobyTurbo | ohgood, what chipset does your card have? | 01:11 |
| thoreauputic | HillTop: I personally think putting an HTML editor under "Office" is a little odd, but what would I know ? ;-) | 01:11 |
| lunitik | marcin_ant: two '/''s | 01:11 |
| marcin_ant | lunitik: ok ok but smb://localhost/ failed too | 01:11 |
| mfraase | ogra, lunitik: thanks for the help... ogra: it worked fine with warty but broken with two hoary installs on two different Sony laptops | 01:11 |
| bdr | armando: Probably best to google for the wireless card's chipset first to see if it has native Linux support | 01:12 |

| lunitik | marcin_ant: IP? | 01:12 |
| jogariga | i just installed ubuntu, but i need some other packages. How can i get them with apt-get? | 01:12 |
| marcin_ant | lunitik: firewall.... propably.... | 01:13 |
| ohgood | MobyTurbo: this is the howto i followed. it fails at 'nvidia-glx-config enable' http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/BinaryDriverHowto | 01:13 |
| MobyTurbo | ohgood, TNT and MX cards had some problems with the previous two versions of nvidia's drivers. Try the latest from nvidia.com if you can get headers or source. | 01:13 |
| lunitik | jogariga: apt-cache search what_you're_looking_for ... apt-get install what_you_want | 01:13 |
| mfraase | ogra: basic hoary preview install results in what looks like a 64x64 pixel block that looks like television static for a cursor. It tracks properly, and the upper left corner works, but it's painful. (thanks again) | 01:13 |
| ohgood | MobyTurbo: lol- i can't get the headers though! | 01:13 |
| ogra | mfraase, you mean gcursor ? or the theme itself ? the latter is a known bug | 01:13 |
| MobyTurbo | ohgood, that assumes of course that the nvidia driver in Hoary is not the buggy one. I don't know if it is. | 01:13 |
| bdr | armando: if it doesn't, apt-get install ndiswrapper-utils and follow the instructions here : http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/phpwiki/index.php/Installation | 01:13 |
| jogariga | lunitik: it says that it doesn't find it | 01:13 |
| thoreauputic | jogariga: you'll probably want to enable the universe repository as well | 01:13 |
| lunitik | jogariga: what are you looking for? | 01:14 |
| MobyTurbo | ohgood, can you get the source? The source is the same as the headers, except more other stuff. :-) | 01:14 |
| ohgood | MobyTurbo: it's 6111. i'm using 6629 (gentoo) now, with no errors. | 01:14 |
| jogariga | lunitik: ethereal | 01:14 |
| mfraase | ogra: No, I installed gcursor to try to resolve the problem but it turned out I was too stupid to use it. | 01:14 |
| ogra | mfraase, ah, that sounds more like a X server issue, you could try to set the HWCursor option in your xorg.conf | 01:14 |
| andrewski | ohgood: do you have linux-restricted modules installed? | 01:14 |
| ohgood | MobyTurbo: did you see the howto i posted ? | 01:14 |
| lunitik | jogariga: in /etc/apt/sources.list ... uncomment the universe line... then apt-get install ethereal | 01:14 |
| armando | bdr: thanx :) I will try that :) | 01:15 |
| mfraase | ogra: it's working with the manually copied *.theme file so I don't want to upset the applecart. | 01:15 |
| jogariga | lunitik: thanks | 01:15 |
| MobyTurbo | ohgood, I've seen that howto and use it myself, but I'm on Warty so my versions are different than yours. | 01:15 |
| ohgood | andrewski: i have no idea, i ddin't install anything myself. | 01:15 |
| lunitik | jogariga: gah... prior to apt-get install ... apt-get update | 01:15 |
| HillTop | thoreauputic, OpenOffice has an editor, so I guess it is there to compete head to head. But I can't get Nvu to launch - past the make profile. Oh well. | 01:15 |
| andrewski | ohgood: well, i think you may have to. that's necessary for nvidia to run. (i'm reading that howto you posted, but didn't think to mention that before.) | 01:15 |
| ogra | mfraase, ok, but it rather sounds like a HWCursor issue :) | 01:15 |
| blizah | anyone familiar with dmraid? | 01:16 |
| ogra | mfraase, but if it works now, leave it ;) | 01:16 |
| andrewski | ohgood: on the other hand, you could still post the error you're getting when X won't load. that would help debug this much faster. :P | 01:16 |

| Nobuyuki` | hoary | 02:31 |
| mdke | madstop, yes that is annoying, i'm sure there is a solution | 02:31 |
| gfxstyler | madstop: you have to set this in the firefox settings | 02:31 |

| armando | see if that lets me connect. | 02:33 |
| cef | Nobuyuki`: well it should be.. when I installed ubuntu on my machine (and while it was installing) I was checking the disk free in the spare terminal, and it never seemed to go over 1.7 GB | 02:33 |
| madstop | gfxstyler, actually I'm still referring to screenshots, not firefox. Firefox I can handle (and that's a bug that will get fixed) The save file dialog in gnome though, just cludgy and annoying | 02:33 |
| ssam | i am sure gnome will start making a one button mouse soon | 02:33 |
| mdke | armando, were you following a howto or something? | 02:33 |
| armando | mdke: for ndiswrapper yes. | 02:33 |

| madstop | like many dialogs in gnome; everything seems designed to waste as much of the user's time as possible. Adding or moving applets on the panels, likewise inefficient | 02:34 |

| cef | mdke: ahh ok.. well, that's just my opinion anyway.. based on the way it happens in other dists too | 02:38 |
| thoreauputic | I suggest all error messages should be identical, and read "Havoc doesn't want you messing with GNOME" *grin* | 02:39 |
| madstop | mdke, I know there's a way to better control screenshots via the terminal, but I forgot the commands | 02:39 |
| ssam | and in theory you can now have a generic menu editor for all desktops | 02:39 |
| cef | mdke: and I don't just mean in gnome, kde does it like that too | 02:39 |
| mdke | cef, i agree that in development systems things can go wrong. But this isn't an example ;) and they were complaining about some features in gnome, rather than bugs ;) | 02:39 |

| maximaus | mindframe: yeah I agree, but there's a few KDE apps that I really like and sometimes I use them under KDE so that they may frolic in their original habitat. :P | 04:09 |
| aeruder | anyone else got lots of problems with Xorg 6.8.2 and BadMatch errors? | 04:10 |
| maximaus | madstop: what do you like better about kicker vs. gnome-panel? | 04:10 |
| aeruder | gnustep doesn't run at all... and macromedia flash plugin hoses firefox (with a BadMatch error) | 04:10 |
| madstop | kde is way ahead of gnome in a lot of little applets | 04:10 |
| madstop | maximaus, for one thing, kicker doesn't "eat the space" -- if you hide it, other windows can use that space | 04:11 |
| aeruder | all kinds of apps have BadMatch errors... really not sure what is going on | 04:11 |
| madstop | hiding gnome panels is pointless | 04:11 |
| mindframe | maximaus: just curious... what apps are those? | 04:11 |
| madstop | better applets, the mixer that fits in kicker, muuuuuch better than gnome mixer | 04:12 |

| madstop | the screenshot applet in kde, fantastic. the one in gnome is lame | 04:12 |
| thoreauputic | madstop: making hideable panels on the vertical doesn't eat space in gnome - I have one here | 04:12 |
| regeya | kaudiocreator > * | 04:12 |
| madstop | true, thoreauputic , but they're ugly. | 04:13 |
| thoreauputic | agreed re screenshot applet | 04:13 |

| thoreauputic | madstop: mine is transparent :) | 04:13 |

| maximaus | mine is made of silk so fine it looks transparent. | 04:13 |
| pinPoint | is ubuntu created by rich ppl or something? :) | 04:13 |

| madstop | I've had no problems reading writing anything to and from windows | 04:18 |

| gfxstyler | lol | 05:26 |

| andrewski | poor taste | 05:27 |
| thoreauputic | sl64: from the man page: mkboot - makes a bootdisk | 05:27 |
| sl64 | cool, thanks :D | 05:27 |
| sl64 | also, i have one more thing to ask | 05:27 |
| sl64 | i was really stupid and I installed grub onto my hda2 partition (my xp one)... and now, i can't boot to xp because it loops the boot loaders | 05:27 |
| sl64 | can I just restore the MBR and that will go away? or is it on the partition itself? | 05:28 |
| thoreauputic | the mbr is never on a partition | 05:29 |
| Quest-Master | sl64: You can restore the MBR | 05:29 |
| Quest-Master | Or, well GRUB at least | 05:29 |
| sl64 | where does grub install itself if you selected it to be on /dev/hda2? | 05:29 |
| sl64 | mbr or the actual partiton? | 05:29 |
| Centy | sl64, the boot sector | 05:29 |
| dizzie | yay let alone gentoo, my server is running ubuntu now :) | 05:30 |
| brad | thanks folks, fixed fontconfig, by the way ubuntu rocks, really appreciate the hard work everyone does, goodnight! | 05:30 |
| sl64 | so how would I remove it from the boot sector? | 05:30 |
| dizzie | nn brad :) | 05:30 |
| Quest-Master | sl64: Are you trying to go back to Windows? | 05:30 |
| Centy | sl64: oops - I meant the parition | 05:30 |
| sl64 | yeah to take my crap off and move it to ubuntu.. and i can't mount my ntfs drive | 05:30 |
| thoreauputic | sl64: you don't need to, if you reinstall grub on the MBR | 05:30 |
| sl64 | i have it on both 0_o | 05:31 |
| === dizzie does a ritual gentoo cd bashing | ||
| Centy | Boot sector is easy - just boot the WinXP installer to rescue mode and run through it from there. | 05:31 |
| Quest-Master | Yes | 05:31 |
| Quest-Master | Go to the Windows XP Recovery console | 05:31 |
| sl64 | i don't have the xp disk, all I have is a recovery partition | 05:31 |
| Quest-Master | Type in fixmbr and fixboot | 05:31 |
| Quest-Master | sl64: There might be a recovery console in there. | 05:31 |
| sl64 | can't get to it :( | 05:31 |
| sl64 | i tried | 05:31 |
| sl64 | it won't boot to the recovery console because that bootloader is blocking it | 05:31 |

| Myrtti | DavidH86: executable is a permission. You need to give the programs you want to run certain permissions | 06:39 |

| pinS | zenrox, done | 07:46 |
| crimsun | Quinn_Storm: I think you misunderstand: the authentication is part of apt itself. | 07:46 |
| zenrox | pinS, reboot in to newer kernel | 07:47 |
| thoreauputic | pinS: do you have universe enabled? | 07:47 |
| crimsun | Quinn_Storm: that's one of the biggest advantages of the 0.6 branch of apt | 07:47 |
| pinS | universe? | 07:47 |
| Quinn_Storm | crimsun: no I do understand, what I am saying is that the instructions for adding repositories & keys should be more clear thats all (and thats on the people who make apt not ubuntu or anything) | 07:47 |
| pinS | lol, i dont know, what is it? | 07:47 |
| pinS | how do i boot into the newer kernel? | 07:47 |
| thoreauputic | pinS: go to synaptic >> settings >> repositories , and tick all the boxes | 07:48 |
| Myrtti | reboot the whole machine | 07:48 |
| crimsun | Quinn_Storm: well, I certainly agree that it's worth of addition to README.Debian if not already present, but the act of adding keys for external, _un_supported repositories should be manual | 07:48 |
| zenrox | pinS, reboot pc it will load newer kernel automatickly | 07:48 |
| pinS | thoreauputic, tick all boxes? | 07:49 |
| pinS | nothing there except for a list | 07:49 |
| pinS | not checkboxes | 07:49 |
| thoreauputic | pinS: that was for enabling universe :) | 07:49 |
| Quinn_Storm | crimsun: oh of course it should be manual, but the method should be made clear, perhaps in the error message, like "the repository couldn't be authenticated. If you're sure its correct, here's how to get and add its key" | 07:49 |
| pinS | under settings button you mean? | 07:49 |
| thoreauputic | pinS: yes - might be different in hoary | 07:50 |
| crimsun | Quinn_Storm: I feel that's more the job of a README entry; please see the deity mailing list and/or the apt BTS entries on bugs.debian.org/apt | 07:50 |
| crimsun | Quinn_Storm: filter for "experimental" | 07:50 |
| pinS | thoreauputic, the sources and binaries? | 07:50 |
| thoreauputic | pinS: settings >> repositories | 07:50 |
| Quinn_Storm | crimsun: I'll look into that | 07:50 |
| thoreauputic | pinS: yes, the sources can be useful when you know a bit more | 07:51 |

| memcmememe | PM me if you are | 09:07 |
| DarthFrog | memcmememe: I'm in BC. | 09:08 |
| Amaranth | topyli: Not bad for 2 days of coding, eh? | 09:08 |
| topyli | Amaranth: are you aware of the competition? there's another editor too, you should join forces | 09:08 |
| matt_ | make it 2 partitions and have an xp/umbutu dual boot setup | 09:08 |
| Amaranth | topyli: you mean the one in GNOME CVS? | 09:08 |
| memcmememe | <DarthFrog Victoria area or Vancouver? | 09:08 |
| Myrtti | DarthFrog: in a channel full of newbies, one should try to keep the lame advice as their own knowledge. Newbies tend to try every advice given, so lame ones can cause serious amount of troubles | 09:09 |
| topyli | Amaranth: no, i found it on the ubuntu forums. somebody's unofficial python experiment | 09:09 |
| Myrtti | and bork their systems BAR | 09:09 |
| matt_ | Its the umbuntu help channel k thx | 09:09 |
| Amaranth | topyli: Oh, I saw that. It doesn't work. | 09:09 |
| thoreauputic | Myrtti: well put | 09:09 |
| DarthFrog | matt_: Use cfdisk to delete the Ubuntu partition and create a partition for XP, reboot, install XP in the new partition, then install Ubuntu. | 09:09 |
| DarthFrog | memcmememe: Vancouver. | 09:09 |
| Amaranth | topyli: Mine started as an extension of that one, actually. Then I more or less rewrote it completely. | 09:09 |
| matt_ | how do i use cfdisk | 09:09 |
| topyli | Amaranth: ok. i haven't tried it. you have a .deb so i'm going to try it :) | 09:10 |
| memcmememe | i was up there last week dude, I love Vancouver but I hate air canada Jazz | 09:10 |
| DarthFrog | matt_: Run it from a command line session. | 09:10 |
| Amaranth | hehe | 09:10 |
| matt_ | Could you tell me the syntax please | 09:10 |
| Amaranth | after you install it it'll show up in the system tools menu (if you logout and back in) or you can run menu-editor from a terminal | 09:10 |
| matt_ | And will ubuntu let me delete the partition its running on | 09:11 |
| DarthFrog | matt_: the syntax is "cfdisk <drive>" | 09:11 |
| Amaranth | topyli: you need to use gksudo or sudo to be able to edit the global menus, just running menu-editor will only edit your local ones | 09:11 |
| matt_ | Whats the name of the system drive | 09:11 |
| DarthFrog | matt_: the syntax is "cfdisk (drive)" | 09:11 |
| ficusplanet | Amaranth, You can just run "killall gnome-panel" to reload the menus. | 09:11 |
| DarthFrog | Bloody kopete not letting me use angle brackets. | 09:11 |
| Amaranth | ficusplanet: Yeah, that's what I do. | 09:11 |
| DarthFrog | matt_: Once cfdisk is running, you'll be able to figure it out. | 09:12 |
| matt_ | great thanks | 09:12 |
| Quinn_Storm | ficusplanet, Amaranth : actually killall -SIGUSR1 works better, makes gnome-panel reload without dying | 09:12 |
| matt_ | ill probably be back | 09:12 |
| DarthFrog | matt_: Beware though, cfdisk is very powerfull. | 09:12 |
| Amaranth | ficusplanet: Well, with the force quit panel button. But it makes GAIM quit and makes the rhythmbox notification area icon not work. | 09:12 |
| ficusplanet | Amaranth, Oh, never noticed that. I don't use Gaim or rhythmbox. | 09:13 |

| thoreauputic | hehe *there | 11:54 |
| dwa_ | flawd you have to install xcompmgr | 11:54 |

| thoreauputic | psik0: you werne't paying attention - I just told you how to create a root account | 11:57 |
| psik0 | ok | 11:57 |
| farruinn | gabb: just fyi, warty doesn't do it that way | 11:57 |

| flawd | not usable | 11:58 |
| thoreauputic | psik0: but in fact it's completely pointless, since you can get a root shell any time by typing sudo -s | 11:58 |

| StoffBox-Steve | ok guys plz help .... i have a USb-drive on /media/sdb1 - /dev/sdb1/ .... but i can only read it... how to i change the access so i can write data to the usb drive ? | 01:07 |
| memcmeme | then from home it wotn let me enter anything else | 01:07 |
| memcmeme | ls shows that it exists | 01:07 |
| ermo | crimsun, or is there another way? | 01:07 |
| memcmeme | but the damn thing says it does't when I type cd /Desktop | 01:07 |
| ermo | crimsun, (hope you don't mind me asking) | 01:07 |
| membreya | memcmeme: no / on the Desktop | 01:07 |
| crimsun | ermo: you can use .desktop files | 01:08 |
| membreya | from the home directory it's just cd Desktop | 01:08 |
| thoreauputic | memcmeme: cd /home/username | 01:08 |

| memcmeme | ok that worked | 01:08 |
| memcmeme | why no / for desktop? | 01:08 |
| thoreauputic | memcmeme: you want *your* home dir | 01:08 |
| UglyP | what are your thoughts on hoary? is it worth upgrading to before it becomes a stable release? | 01:09 |
| membreya | memcmeme: because /Desktop would imply that it's in the root filesystem | 01:09 |
| crimsun | UglyP: in my experience, yes | 01:09 |
| memcmeme | oh ok | 01:09 |
| thoreauputic | memcmeme: when you are in the dir , you just type the name of the dir | 01:09 |

| knudsen_ | Hello. Some days ago I installed Ubunto (the new preview), and I installed totem-xine without any problems. Now I have made a freash installation, and if I want to install totem-xine, I have to uninstall ubuntu-desktop. Afterwards totem will not start ... does anybody know what to do? | 07:42 |
| da_root | do you use synaptic? | 07:43 |
| knudsen_ | yes | 07:43 |
| Xappe | apt-get totem-xine maybe? | 07:43 |
| LinuxJones | knudsen_, don't worry about ubuntu-desktop, try running totem-xine from a command line and see what error it pops up with. | 07:43 |

| Nermal | with what sensor / display ? | 09:03 |
| Den-Dens | it gives this error when i just type gdesklets in terminal | 09:04 |
| Den-Dens | and i tryed it with multiCPU display | 09:04 |
| Nermal | o | 09:04 |
| Den-Dens | i get a small bar but when i try to place it it just gives this error again | 09:05 |
| Den-Dens | any ideas | 09:05 |
| Den-Dens | i have tryed upgrading phyton but no change | 09:05 |

| DarthFrog | malte: For one thing, you have: SSLCertificateFile /etc/apache2/ssl.key/obbel.se.csr | 09:08 |
| DarthFrog | That should be a CRT file, not your CSR. | 09:08 |
| malte | DarthFrog, oh. i'm not sure what the difference is though | 09:09 |
| malte | i followed a guide to generate a cert and a private key | 09:09 |
| === neon is now known as Jesterace | ||
| DarthFrog | malte: One is the Certificate Signing Request that you submit to a signing authority. The other is the certificate you get back from said signing authority. | 09:09 |
| malte | oh :) | 09:10 |
| chickenman | i just get a load of error lines even though i checked it all a number of times my self is there any other GUI C++ compiler i can use ? | 09:10 |

| djst | LinuxJones: ah i understand.. although i'm not very excited about downgrading the kernel... :( | 11:39 |
| armando | linuxjones its ok :) I better leave to catch a plane anyway :) | 11:39 |

| garret_ | questions about gpg key. Trying to add source from a debian source, keep getting the key error, any help? | 11:42 |
| calavera | mike998: yeah i don't know where that came from. gentoo is definitely not for technically less inclined users | 11:43 |
| f00fbug | ok | 11:43 |
| djst | LinuxJones: but there are newer kernel versions out there.. so your suggestion would still be a downgrade, right? | 11:43 |
| garret_ | deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian/ ../project/experimental main contrib non-free | 11:43 |
| hawke_ | xenonite: Though, gnome tends to be simpler, so that might be a plus. | 11:43 |

| LinuxJones | djst, ok sudo -s (password) apt-get update && apt-get install linux-image-2.6.10-5-386 | 11:43 |
| f00fbug | i changed all the dists to hoary.. now if this is as good as debian is apt-get dist-upgrade should just work :D | 11:43 |
| calavera | xenonite: exactly. for your basic every-day tasks gnome is just simpler and less intimidating than kde | 11:44 |
| xenonite | yes gnome might be simpler, but she is a windows user now... | 11:44 |
| mike998 | calvera: yeah, the thought of taking days just to get X up and running scares me | 11:44 |
| djst | Jesterace, LinuxJones: you are right both of you.. installing nvidia-glx wants me to insert the cd, and it also wants me to install the old 2.6.10-4 kernel | 11:44 |
| Jesterace | really | 11:44 |
| LinuxJones | djst, argh sorry make that -4 | 11:44 |
| f00fbug | KDE is more appealing to a win user imo | 11:44 |
| Jesterace | it's working fine with my -5 kernel | 11:44 |
| djst | Jesterace: yes, appearantly it doesn't like new kernels | 11:44 |
| xenonite | f00fbug thats what i thought | 11:45 |
| === _4strO is now known as _4`aw | ||
| Jesterace | with slackware i was able to install the nvidia driver with 2.6.11.4 kernel no issues | 11:45 |
| hawke_ | xenonite: Simply the fact that it is different might help though...Some people adjust better when it's a lot different than when it's almost the same but not quite. | 11:45 |
| calavera | mike998: i was a gentoo user once. the compile-times weren't so bad for the most part. but after compiling kde for the umpteenth time i got fed up | 11:45 |
| djst | Jesterace: although i have to try it, and the first step now is burning the cd and then do what the system tells me to.. then boot with the old kernel and make it work, then choose the new kernel and see if it stops working.. if it does, ..well at least i know more about it | 11:45 |

| NeoGeo64 | Help, how do I get the runlevel to 3 so I can install my nvidia drivers? I tried sudo'ing init 3 but it doesn't do anything. | 11:46 |
| treke | Is there any good way to predict in what order ubuntu is going to load network devices? | 11:46 |
| will | NeoGeo64: jsut use the drivers from apt-get | 11:46 |
| xenonite | hm but if that user dont want to learn that much to get used to gnome | 11:47 |
| NeoGeo64 | That doesn't satisfy me. | 11:47 |
| NeoGeo64 | I want to learn. | 11:47 |
| NeoGeo64 | :) | 11:47 |
| NeoGeo64 | hehe | 11:47 |
| NeoGeo64 | but thanks | 11:47 |
| NeoGeo64 | lol | 11:47 |
| pipeline | The only thing you'll learn from the nvidia installer is the meaning of pain. | 11:47 |
| pipeline | Use apt-get or don't do it at all. | 11:47 |
| xenonite | kde has a better learning curve i thought | 11:47 |
| NeoGeo64 | really? | 11:47 |
| pipeline | The installer thinks you're using redhat and craps all over your /usr filesystem. | 11:47 |
| NeoGeo64 | ubuntu sucks. i cant do anything manually. | 11:47 |
| NeoGeo64 | heh | 11:47 |
| NeoGeo64 | im used to slackware | 11:47 |
| pipeline | Then use gentoo. No skin off my back. | 11:47 |
| djst | hmm.. have to install k3b which includes 100 mb of required packages.. :( once again, glad i'mnot on a modem :) | 11:47 |
| will | NeoGeo64: its relatively easy to do - just build your own module as described in the install! | 11:48 |
| NeoGeo64 | pipeline: Fine. I just might. | 11:48 |
| xenonite | NeoGeo64, swith runlevels via "init <NR>" | 11:48 |
| will | i did it no problems about 4 months ago on warty | 11:48 |
| NeoGeo64 | I tried that, but it doesn't do anything. | 11:48 |
| NeoGeo64 | heh | 11:48 |
| will | try again! | 11:48 |
| hawke_ | xenonite: depends on the user...presumably you know her better than me/us. My general suggestion would be to go with KDE. | 11:48 |
| will | READ everything :) | 11:48 |
| pablo921 | Is Ubuntu a plug and play OS? When I changed soundcards no sound until I reloaded ubuntu? | 11:48 |
