FAT32 would be more portable, cause every OS can read/write without drivers. You can take it anywhere, to any computer, no need to install anything. The prob is that FAT32 has a maximum file size. ext2 can be read/write in Windows, but it requires custom drivers. You can install them on any windows install. And it doesn't have a stupid max file size. === Nomad411 [n=Bob@CPE000d88f1925d-CM000a73668bc0.cpe.net.cable.rogers.com] has joined #ubuntu === jopen [n=jopen@adsl-223-17-192-81.adsl.iam.net.ma] has joined #ubuntu [01:48] just a general question === minimec is now known as minimec_afk [01:48] i can't get any of the seveas repository mirrors to work...

[03:34] I'm not talking about the xorg config file [03:35] I'm talking about the utility [03:35] Tauhshi, I'm using the most recent firefox, though, not one from the repositories [03:35] what utility? [03:35] xorgcfg [03:35] XF86Config [03:35] or that... [03:35] BrigadierFrog: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg [03:35] Sethk: Might be the reaosn [03:35] nowadays... [03:35] BrigadierFrog, because dpkg-reconfigure xserver-sorg is much easier to use [03:35] slavik: you gotta be kidding me man, there's no xorgcfg !? isn't that part of xorg ???? [03:35] BrigadierFrog, you can, of course, install the other config === koko is now known as nu [03:35] and how would I install that utility then === Squad_ [n=Squad_@74.129.16.129] has left #ubuntu ["Leaving"] [03:35] BrigadierFrog: xorgcfg is not part of the package maintainer [03:36] =) [03:36] does anyone know how to increase your swap space? [03:36] BrigadierFrog: dpkg is always there :) [03:36] so if I go install xorg from source... it won't give me a xorgcfg binary...

[03:36] Hi, is it possible to send a command to an application that is screened? [03:36] syndicate47, permanently you have to increase swap partition size, or add additional swap partition(s) [03:36] sethk: have you used edgy yet? === Ash-Fox- [i=UNKNOWN@egi88.neoplus.adsl.tpnet.pl] has joined #Ubuntu === bruenig [n=bruenig@70.244.185.194] has joined #ubuntu [03:36] slavik: why not have the nice utility to generate a xorg.conf file?

[03:37] Firefox looks like its runing on a GNOME emulation layer, the menus look GNOME [03:37] BrigadierFrog: X -configure [03:37] slavik, no, not yet [03:37] BrigadierFrog: because dpkg-reconfigure is nice as well? === pdc303 [n=pdc@82-38-152-18.cable.ubr02.roth.blueyonder.co.uk] has joined #ubuntu [03:37] BrigadierFrog: because we write them by hand ;) [03:37] sethk: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/19844 ... maybe you could help [03:37] Qwell: thats not the same [03:37] Tauhshi, download firefox from mozilla.org, see if it behaves differently.

I believe I have loaded Ubuntu on a new dell inspiron dual core centrino processors but I'm stuck with x server disabled and at a prompt. Sudo does stuff, but I'm not sure what.

[03:48] appe, you probably don't have the extra repository enabled [03:48] tinkerer, If it does an HTTP redirect, you can see that by sniffing packets when you point your browser at a page. Possibly there will be a geographic location in the redirect that is obvious, so you could try different values in it. e.g., if it had the word south in it, you could try north, east, and west. There isn't any systematic way to investigate it, though.

Either you configure sudo to allow your user to do absolutely everything, which means effectively that you are worse off than allowing su.
