chaps0063wonderland: are you editing locally or are people other than those on your computer going to access them?02:57
DAC1138knowledge_,  try "dhclient eth1" or whatever your wifi card was detected as02:57

bob2wonderland: you can continue to argue with people who know far more about this than you do, but it doesn't change the fact that you're wasting time03:01
naliothrobert_pectol: then use "apt-cache search <pkgname-fragment-etc>"03:02

=== Andrewcool is now known as andrewcool_away
jasoncohenthey make a valid argument that by distributing firefox in the way that debian, ubuntu and other distros distribute it, you're not getting an official mozilla package and when things break they get the complaints- like the inability to use extensions. in order for them to have safely allowed ubuntu users, they would have had to look at the full version tag of firefox- and do the same for all distros07:43

SysFailwould be nice if konqueror worked without crashing...wouldnt need firefox :)07:44
Burgundaviajasoncohen, the reason mozilla had to break u.m.o is because they cannot tell if a version is patched except through the vendorstring07:44
jasoncohenfor me the issue is that it's unacceptable that mozilla-browser still hiasn't been patched and that warty's firefox and mozilla haven't been patched07:44

Debian users wont' mind changing a string in about:config but many new Ubuntu users would mind. It's just easier and more secur07:49
jasoncohene for the users to have timely and official updated firefox packages07:49

GhostFreemanThat's what I don't get. Seems like they're downgrading based on what you guys say08:42

GhostFreemantrue08:42

bojangleswhat does this mean "freaking overpriced" ....what determines price?11:30
WilowExcuse me.  I have windows XP and Ubuntu Hoary 5.04 updated.  I recently over-rided my MBR sector when I reinstall windows.  However I am now unable to boot Ubuntu.  I read on (ubuntuguide.org) that I should type "rescue" at boot and log in as root then type "grub-install /dev/hda".  Where /dev/hda is the location of my /boot partition.  However it comes up with an error message.  I think my boot partition is called something else.  So11:30
Wilowmy question is how do I find out which is my boot parition.11:30

WilowI am rather annoyed.  I use Ubuntu so that I can have a Linux Operating System to use.  However I could have fixed this problem by reformatting and installing ubuntu again by now.  The only thing that is stopping me are my remaining files on Unbuntu.11:35

So, when you load / re-load any of Uncle Bill's O/Ss it will overwrite a part of your hard disk called the Master Boot Record (mbr). This is the bit that tells your PC, during boot up, where to find the operating system.  (Knew this already.... but AMEN)12:02

jnkfreeradicals, yes but the window where you type commands, there's a program listening to your commands in there, which interprets them, and it's a whole programming language so things can get quite complicated :)07:33

ptloorangerange, it's just cpu priority. gedit is probably waiting for some I/O operation to finish (where "I/O" could be anything from reading a config file to accessing X server or sound daemon)08:34

orangerangeptlo, but the only document i'm working on in gedit is my journal/diary. I've been waiting for 10 minutes now.08:34
ptloorangerange: so giving it more CPU priority won't do the trick. anyways, you can do that even on an already running process with 'renice' command (there's probably a gui equivalent in ubuntu also, but i didn't use renice for a long time so i wouldn't know about that)08:35

Razor-Xa question for you graphical text editor users -- stuck on a box without said text editor, what would you do?08:38
ptloorangerange, hmm......you could in theory run strace (process tracing) on it and see where it's stuck, but if you're unfammiliar with unix programming that won't do much help. i suggest you close it and start it again (if the problem persists, run it from the terminal, it might give some error output there)08:38
tritiumorangerange, is it locked up?  Can you just kill it and restart it?08:38
