[00:08] its mysterious that there is no network adapter in the network setting window...

[04:36] :)..... still sitting and drinking :) [04:37] hmmm i am sharing SMB to XP with hardy 804 with smb-package [04:37] ubuntu: you can install ntfs-3g on the live cd for that [04:38] b3ny0-: try to find nvidia in your package manager.. then you will be happy... i found it there and my fx5200 128 runns very well [04:38] b3ny0-: shouldn't that use the normal nvidia driver? [04:38] favro, on lts 6.06? couldn't find it in the community docs, can you tell me how? [04:38] I don [04:38] t know what the normal one is called [04:38] :) [04:39] ubuntu: you install it over the net - the live cd does this but the things you install aren't saved [04:39] try one of those both nvidia... one should work.... yo should use the older one i think [04:39] b3ny0-: nvidia-glx-new I think [04:40] !info nvidia-glx-new [04:40] nvidia-glx-new (source: linux-restricted-modules-2.6.24 (2.6.24.13-19.45)): NVIDIA binary XFree86 4.x/X.Org 'new' driver.

[04:44] thats all i can say [04:45] ubuntu: it might be only using the cd as a repo - in synaptic click preferences - repositories and enable all [04:46] ubuntu: use Krusader Filecommander and click on MEDIA.. then yo can see your NTFS-XP HD [04:46] Chickengeorge2: ok, how do i get Krusader? [04:47] krusader kicks ass [04:47] ubuntu: use synaptics or any other packet-manager [04:47] sudo apt-get install krusader [04:47] b3ny0-: sorry if you dont like krusader [04:48] Chickengeorge2: can install it to live and then access files? [04:48] i do like krusader [04:48] i dont know if it works live... i have xubuntu-HD insallatio [04:48] n [04:48] i like those 2 windows filemanagers [04:50] ubuntu: give it a try [04:50] going to try, but couldn't change any prefs in synaptic gonna try terminal [04:51] why change prefs? [04:51] is that needed? [04:51] for the repositories [04:51] !repos [04:51] The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecommendedSources for the recommended way to set up your repositories [04:52] i know about repositories.. but arent they already all there? i mean the once you need?

[04:53] and in the terminal i get 'couldn't find package krusader' [04:54] find Krusader in packet-manager!!!! [04:54] apt-cache search to find packages in terminal [04:54] or DL it from the web as a *.deb or similar [04:54] ubuntu: it prob didn't set your graphics card up right [04:54] and no docs in community for Krusader Filecommander [04:55] !find krusader [04:55] Found: krusader, krusader-dbg [04:55] !info krusader [04:55] krusader (source: krusader): twin-panel (commander-style) file manager for KDE (and other desktops).

[04:56] yes twin-opanel [04:56] twin-panel right [04:56] ubuntu: ask them what they changed in the bios... [04:57] he's gone, said he din't do anything. i wonder if i throw it in again if it will boot. this is my friends windows machine that crashed and he needs to rescue some legal docs ...

[06:06] hi deci [06:17] arschgefickte gummizofen [06:23] In Ubuntu, under Places, there is My Computer. Is there any way to get a GUI My Computer menu in Xubuntu? [06:24] (Sorry for what is probably a really newbie question) [06:24] thunar [06:25] What is Thunar, and is that an answer to me or the continuation of a convo that started before I came in? [06:25] !thunar [06:25] Thunar is a file manager for !Xfce. It is a lightweight alternative to !Nautilus and is quite similar. More info at: http://thunar.xfce.org/index.html - Want to Replace Nautilus with Thunar? See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/nonautilusplease [06:25] !thunar [06:25] Beat me to it :) [06:25] hehe [06:26] Does that psychocats instruction work in Xubuntu? [06:26] try Gnome-commander [06:27] or similar 2 side -fileanager [06:27] I know there are some differences.......... for example, ubuntu-restricted-extras is different than xubuntu-restricted-extras. [06:30] So when I change from Nautilus to Thunar, where do I go to get a standard My Computer screen where I can see all my hard drives, optical drives, etc? [06:30] use gnome-kommander or konquerror or how its called [06:31] o.O [06:31] !gnome-commander [06:31] Sorry, I don't know anything about gnome-commander [06:31] then its easy [06:31] !gnome-kommander [06:31] Sorry, I don't know anything about gnome-kommander [06:31] :/ [06:31] DL it and have a look at it ..plz [06:31] trust me [06:38] works? wolfwalker? [06:39] What works? [06:39] gnome-commander [06:40] I'm not on Xubuntu at the moment. I'm going to have to install it on this laptop I have here though, cause Ubuntu won't even get Gnome fully running. [06:40] It only has 233 megs ram :( [06:40] md5sums arent posted? [06:40] thats enough to run xubuntu... so its okay [06:40] I googled it though, and it seems cool. [06:40] Definitely try it [06:41] i had running knoppix on 266mhz / 256 ram abnd / 1632 GFX [06:41] All I need is something that will show me (in GUI) available hard drives. [06:41] Yeah. I was thinking Puppy for this laptop, but too many unknowns. [06:41] Xubuntu it is [06:41] yepp man [06:41] wolfwalker, thunar [06:41] Puppy is getting there though. [06:42] no other choice else of DSL-Linux :) [06:42] DSL doesn't have anything. It runs........... but you can't DO anything. [06:42] ;) just joking [06:42] try xubuntu [06:43] Catoptromancy when I get thunar where do I go to get a standard My Computer screen with all the available hard drives/optical drives/peripherals? [06:43] in thunar [06:43] heh [06:43] just open it [06:43] Actually Puppy is looking better and better. Not as polished as Xubuntu yet, but almost as capable. [06:43] look in /media or /mnt [06:44] So it will be a "Thunar" selection in Apps? [06:44] ya [06:44] Ah [06:44] Thankee [06:46] any porn games for linux there? [06:53] porn-games for linux there without using an emulator`?
