terjelsuactiafner: dd12:03
ubuntuterje, im running live cd right now. but you cant use it for a long time, i mean editing the network properties each time and stuff ... thats no fun12:03
littlefaeEveryone's got these wonderful 'howtos' but not one of them has worked 100%12:03
ubuntunalioth, i have a dvd burner on another computer on the network, what can i do ?12:03

terjeso when I boot up off the CD, I just download all my files, logout and log back in and I have my desktop.12:05
pgidzleo is it working for you12:05
ubuntunalioth, i have no problem sending it over the network, but how can i access that partition ?12:06
leohang on i'll get a blank12:06
naliothubuntu: i'm assuming you want to backup wndows to put linux on the 4gb laptop HD?12:06
pgidzleo make sure you put the full directory path to your iso file12:06
terjeubnutu: if it's a windows box, they have a backup utility that can be used to create a back up .DAT file. Send that over the network to the system w/ the burner.12:06
vinuxhey yuacht I found the problem hehe, I guess I was in a rush to set up my sources when I installed because I left 2 not usable12:06

pgidzlittlefae if you hardwire to your router from your laptop can you access the net12:07
littlefaeI can't hardwire to it.12:07
ubuntunalioth, i dont know, if i could turn the 40gb partition into two, i would install linux over there .. but i want to backup that one any way12:07

SavvyPlayeri thought glx "was" the driver01:12

black_Nightmarewell I'm kinda curious about a 266mhz G3.....hm guess I'll perhaps just start with mac os for now and decide about it from a livecd maybe01:57
rasputnikwazadmin: are you spelling it right?01:58
bimberiwazdmin: I'm fairly sure it was in the multiverse repository but it isn't there now.  I checked on packages.ubuntu.com01:58
siorfinrasputnik: im in single user now but still cant delete it or rename it or whatever01:58
asimismo*sigh* no one ever pipes up on the evms topic, either here or even on #evms. Isn't anyone using it? Do people use LVM directly?01:58
bimberiwazdmin: perhaps it's in backports01:58
wazdminso u r saying its not my fault..01:58
rasputniksiorfin: that's bizarre.01:59
wazdminim not sure how to install it01:59
siorfinrasputnik: is there some disk utility i can run like scandisk for winblows to check for disk errors?01:59
rasputniksiorfin: only other thing I can think of is booting off the live cd, mounting the hdd root partition and removing it that way01:59
bimberiwazdmin: yes - i don't think it's your fault02:00
bimberi:)02:00
rasputniksiorfin : just do a quick 'lsattr /etc/mtab' - it should be all '-----' before the filename02:00

black_Nightmarefundle....graphic card support?02:12
holycowblack_Nightmare, its a two part question02:12
holycowa: is the hardware designed for that02:12
black_Nightmare640x480 is kinda supposed to be the 'unsupported' res02:12
fundleblack: not sure02:12
wazdminya..i checked my sources list..i already have those installed02:12
holycowand b: can the os detect hardware changes02:12
siorfinrasputnik: everything works now thanks, creating a new file fixed it02:12
holycowthe answer to b: is yes02:12
fundleblack: let me lspci02:12
black_Nightmareholy...as far as I've found.. mac os supports some bay swapping (same to pcmcia if not in use too)02:12
holycowthe answer to a: is, well take a chance bucky, let us know if your laptop survives02:12
wazdminbimberi : is it ppossible i might need to enable those backports02:13
holycowblack_Nightmare, its a two part question02:13
holycowdon't ignore a:02:13

holycowyou could be sorry02:13

black_Nightmarebut again..I'll see ;)02:13
fundleblack: 82845g/gl brookdale-g is what it says02:13
bimberiwazdmin: yes - if you want to install azureus02:13
wazdminhow do i enable them02:13
black_Nightmarefundle..errumm..that sounds like intel graphics to me (they had 'GL' names too)02:13
holycowblack_Nightmare, your thjinking of running ubuntu on a powerbook?02:13
fundleblack: it is intel02:14
black_Nightmareholy...maybe...or just mac os alone..not sure...would have to make a ubuntu/ppc livecd to try the pb with02:14
holycowi have no clue, i don't run those. hotplug should detec all hardware changes and so far its rarely borked02:14
holycowblack_Nightmare, what is it with you and the os?02:14
black_Nightmarefundle...humm well it should be able to use any intel GL drivers02:14
holycowhere is an experiment to prove that ELECTRICITY matters02:14
black_Nightmarenot sure what problem could be02:14

Burgundavianekohayo, LCD's are much much nicer to look at for long periods of time05:56
IceDC571when people shop for LCDs.. the ms rate is the most important, the refresh rate almost doesnt matter because no one notices it05:56
TokenBadso he wants to basicly search the entire system for httpd.conf files with the line in it05:56
IceDC571the higher the ms, the more shadowing occurs05:56
Burgundaviaactually, LCDs have lower refresh rates than CRTS05:56

CthulhuTokenBad, cd / && sudo grep -R string *05:56
wizothats y LCD screens are nto that good for gaming coz of the lower refresh rate05:57

nekohayoLCDs have only one optimal resolution? >___< I don't want 1280, that's too high for nothing06:03
wizointerpolation? issint that extending a graph?06:03
nekohayoI believe if you don't use the native resolution of an LCD, you get smoothed out images (because it's stretched)06:03
IceDC571nekohayo: yeah, thats the only downside06:03
nekohayoyou don't get a cristal clear image.06:03
dbernar1nekohayo: what I did, was...I ran dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, and I selected to allow other resolutions.06:03
IceDC571nekohayo: thats why gaming sucks when you use a lower resolution on LCD06:04
dbernar1as sudo06:04
IceDC571you see all blurs06:04
nekohayowell I'm no gamer (except once in a while for enemy territory :)06:04
dbernar1nekohayo: the thing is, dont screw up stuff in that reconfigure.06:04
nekohayouh?06:04
Juhazit blurs a bit but it's not all that bad, if "you see all blurs" that's probably more from the slowness than non-native resolution06:04
Juhazand too ... high? ugh, and here I've been banging my head to wall and hoping someone would finally make 1600x1200 desktop lcd's06:04
IceDC571Juhaz: yeah, you're right06:05
nekohayoJuhaz, well I noticed I was always getting leaned forward to read, not a good thing.06:05
IceDC571trust me, once you get used to "high" resolutions you wont go back06:05
dbernar1cause you wont see anything then. I am personally also usually for a lower resolution, its all bigger, thats good sometimes.06:05

SymGeosisDamn, I've been trying to figure that out all day. And I really like the iTunes theme for it too...07:51

bigfoot1about ViM and keyboard layouts: i'm reading page 2 of vimtutor. I'm sad to read that the keys for moving the cursor are h,j,k, and l, which make sense for a qwerty user, but not for an elite and cool dvorak user (like tigliona1bit  and moah)! 8-)08:39

jago25_98jtan325: because synaptic isn't messy - stuff through that is managed. some stuff does go in /opt , but that's a bodge/kludge09:49

djphi. i used the export EDITOR=blah, blah command yesterday to change my default command line editor. it worked fine. however after closing down my pc and restarting it this morning, the editor has reverted back to the original default editor used under gnome/ubuntu? i would like to make the editor change and be permanent.09:52
hondjenikkia: maybe slack is the distro for you then, they keep it pretty much in your hands09:52
nikkiajtan, eclipse and azureus are prime examples of apps that by their nature break the concept of packaging, they both install/upgrade themselves, and maintaining a package registry is near impossible, since the system can't easily tell if you've updated them09:52

jago25_98jtan325: what the diff between profile and bashrc?09:53
yuachternstp, what problem is that?09:53

jtan325no09:53

jtan325export EDITOR=editorname09:53
Poromiesjtan325: i tried breezy out, and found it to be very unstable and to have very limited packages available (64bit).. so im back with hoary, though im running on breezy kernell 2.6.12-309:53
hondje?09:54
yuachternstp, i have that problem too. just do sudo mount -a when you enter gnome, isn't that much of a hazzle09:54
hondjeWhat's $EDITOR for?09:54
jtan325jago25_98, the profile is only "activated" when you login09:54
djpjtan325: ok thanks. do i put that command at the end of the bashrc file?09:54
ernstpI have the necessary modules in /etc/modules and the devices show up after boot09:54
jtan325sure09:54
jtan325jago25_98, when you login through the shell09:54

AzmodanI am buying a new computer and I am looking for a cheap, works out-of-the-box-on-Ubuntu soundcard.  What would you suggest me ?05:54
casperSeveas: but i run things as root directly, is there any difference05:54
spikeSeveas: sadly that's not even true for debian... because of some libgd dependencies :/05:55

torti-ryan_: sorry i don't really have that much clue in bridging. nat is network adress translation, kinda 'network sharing'11:57
