crazEgamer201Hi, just got a new computer and am attempting to instal xubuntu to an external hdd. The life CD boots up fine, but once I've installed it on my usb hdd and try to boot up I get a GRUB error 2. Can someone please help me rectify this?01:35
crazEgamer201*live CD01:36
forcescrazEgamer201, where did you install grub?01:38
bob__so anyone got a working xorg.conf for me?01:39
crazEgamer201Well, the external hdd is the only drive hooked up to my comp besides the dvd drive01:40
crazEgamer201So I'm assuming it was installed there01:40
crazEgamer201I'm installing the 32 bit version on a computer with a 64 bit CPU, could that be a factor?01:46

psycho_oreosprobably best to use pastebin lol08:35
diecastartsk be a min then08:36
psycho_oreosfrom what I can see, you have the deps loaded but maybe it requires either older or newer dep08:37
psycho_oreoswell no its not loaded, my bad, its more like you need to set that file into a variable08:37
diecastartsyeah i was thinking it what an older version of gtk-sharp08:39

knomediecastarts, please.08:41
psycho_oreosdo you not know how to use pastebin? lol08:41
diecastartsi tried08:41
diecastartsguess noit08:41
psycho_oreosyou go into that link, paste the stuff, hit submit, and then when you get the url, either from address bar or otherwise specified, copy and paste that url instead lol08:41
diecastartshttp://paste.ubuntu.com/224150/08:42
diecastartsit in there twice sorry08:42
psycho_oreosyou'll need to set a variable and export it so that it becomes an environment variable08:43
diecastartslong time for me.. havn't use irc in yearrrsssss08:43
* psycho_oreos still wouldn't think that would be a valid excuse :) dialup users will be annoyed seeing that :)08:44
diecastartswhich means i need to read books then because i have no idea08:44
psycho_oreosprobably BASH-HOWTO would be a good start08:44
diecastartswell the flooding meant in my day repeating text over and over to cause crashes08:45
diecastartsthank you. frist good answer i got all night08:45
diecastartsbeen at this for hours LOL08:46
knomeexporting a variable: export VARIABLE_NAME=variable_value08:46
psycho_oreosyou'll need to locate the file in its full path, e.g. /usr/src/linux-2.6.29.4/.config and then set it as var.. like KERN_CONF=/usr/src/linux-2.6.29.4/.config. Once set, you export it08:46
psycho_oreoswell its either crashes or you cause dialup/narrow-band users to disconnect because of excessive data received on their clients08:47
diecastartsin my case gtk-sharp address?08:49
diecastartsactually Never mind i don't get it at all... finally hit a point i cannot just easy fix it08:49
psycho_oreoswell if its one location I suppose so, yes and you suppliment the variable to whatever that is required (obviously)08:50
diecastartsyeah i get that much.. but how to do i just going to finally have to look at the free books i downloaded08:50
psycho_oreosyou type those in terminal basically08:53
diecastartsyeah i get common line... and all that... but still new pretty new...08:54
diecastartsi'll go and read bash how-to08:55
diecastartsthanks for the help08:55
psycho_oreosnw08:58
Leroytirebitercould I trouble someone for a little help with an xubuntu 9.04 install issue?08:59
diecastartsstay think 8.1008:59
diecastartsstay with08:59
diecastartssorry i found it buggy still...09:00
diecastartsbut anyway later all09:00
Leroytirebiterwell, I'd like to see if I can resolve this issue first....09:00
Leroytirebiterso, launching right in I guess... I'm trying to install xubuntu 9.04 on a Dell inspiron 4000 notebook. Everything has gone smoothly in the install so far (aside from a few painful noises from the disc drive) up until step five where it requires a username, password etc. The problem is I can't enter any text into the fields. any help or directions on where to seek help would be great (checked the forums, scoured the net for solutions)09:10
psycho_oreosthe keyboard work before then?09:19
Leroytirebiteryes09:23
LeroytirebiterI had DSL installed before09:23
psycho_oreoshave you tried pressing any of the * lock buttons? (i.e. num lock, caps lock, scroll lock) and see if the lights for them come on?09:25
Leroytirebiteryes09:25
Leroytirebiterthey work just fine09:26
psycho_oreosduring the setup I mean09:26
psycho_oreosand also did you try getting in one of the tty to see if the keyboard works?09:26
Leroytirebiterah. no haven't tried that09:28
Leroytirebiterto be quite honest, though, I don't know how to do that.... all I know is that a) the keyboard is fine physically  b) I'm stuck (not frozen) on step 5 of the install, I am unable to get the cursor to appear in the entry fields09:33
knomeLeroytirebiter, obvious question: have you tried to press tab? :P09:34
Leroytirebiteryes, nothing....09:34
knomeLeroytirebiter, what happens if you press ctrl+alt+f1? if you can get to a tty, you can get back to the graphical installer with ctrl+alt+f[something] (7 if i am correct)09:35
LeroytirebiterIO APIC resources could not be allocated.09:36
psycho_oreosthink the installer may have froze09:37
psycho_oreosif you can do such things whilst the computer is running the install, its probably that program only that's stuff09:37
psycho_oreosstuffed09:37
Leroytirebiterno, because I can go back a step.... and I don't think the ISO was corrupted (though it may have been)09:37
Leroytirebiteris there any other information about the install or the machine that would be usefull?09:38
Leroytirebiterwell, another night I suppose. Thanks for trying, better luck next time eh?09:49
confusioushelloooooo everybody !11:30
confusious Hey there knome11:30
confusiousokay...I'm really frazzled here...it's now 3:30 in the morn & I've been working on figuring out "how to turn off a "tool" in the gimp image manipulation program for about the last hour or so & I sure would like to go to bed now.And,my other half would like me to come to0 bed now too.She's getting very upsett aht I'm up this late again "srewing around with that comp again"11:34
confusiousCan anyone PLEASE tell me how to simply "deselect" a tool that i have selected in the gimp program ? The first tool I need to know how to turn off is the "heal" tool can anyone PLEASE help me with this before I get into any more trouble with "the other half" ??11:36
HotcoralI'm not sure what's the problem now, exept for you needing to go to bed?11:42
Hotcoraljust give it up for the day11:43
confusiouswell,thanks hotrcoral that's some good advice & it looks like that's what I might have to do since no one seems to know the answer to my question,ay ?11:44
Hotcoralwell don't u turn off a tool by choosing another one11:45
Hotcoralhaven't really been using gimp that much, though11:45
confusioushmmmmmmmmm not real sure since I am kind o a newb as you might call it but see I donm't want another turned on ...actually I want them all turned off "deselected"11:46
confusiousI can find lots of info on "selecting" one but not "deselecting" one11:47
SiDiconfusious: if you have a tool X selected, then click on tool Y on the toolbox and tool X isnt selected anymore11:48
SiDiDon't you have your toolbox on the left side ?11:48
Hotcoralexactly :)11:48
confusiousI just thought I might find someone on here that maybe was familiar with the program...wonder if I should maybe try another site ? Probably a good idea huh ? like maybe THE gimp site ? Hmmmmm don't know why I didn't think of that myself.Hmmmmmm.Thanks everybody heh heh11:49
Hotcoraluf u don't want to make changes to the photo choose zoom tool or so?11:49
SiDiconfusious: i regularly use GIMP11:49
Hotcoraluf = if11:49
SiDiyour question just DOESNT make sense11:50
HotcoralI thought so, too x)11:50
SiDiYou want to stop using a tool, well, select another one >.>11:50
confusiousyeah sidi ?? hmm well,thanks.I'll try that but again I'm actually trying to turn off all tools since I think I have 2 turnmed on11:50
SiDithat would be a bug11:50
confusiousregularly sidi ?? hm well again thank you11:50
SiDiyou cant "disable" tools anyway11:51
psycho_oreosis there a way to make apt-get force install packages despite there are unmet dependencies (i.e. the files are getting overwritten and those files are part of another package)?11:51
SiDiYou have the currently active tool, and the other tools, and that's all11:51
confusiousohh no thats not what I want to do11:51
Hotcoralunless of course u r selecting some colour with the picker and then choosing some tools which use colours...11:51
psycho_oreosor maybe I'll have to deal with dpkg11:51
confusioushmmmm11:51
SiDipsycho_oreos: i think you can force it with dpkg -f -i but i recommand you against breaking your packages11:51
confusiousuh hhhh ohhhhhhhh dpkg ?? uhhh ohhh that sounds like trouble ha ha11:51
SiDiHotcoral: then the picker is unselected since it's a tool :]11:52
Hotcoralwell that's true, just thinking what could give the illusion of 2 tools at one go...11:52
SiDipsycho_oreos: take in consideration that apt-get and aptitude will whine afterwards and may even refuse to perform updates: )11:52
psycho_oreosSiDi, hmm thanks11:52
confusiousahhhhhhh nyes.That sounds like even more fun to edal with.Not that I don't have enough now   ha ha11:53
psycho_oreosyeah I was thinking how two packages share the same file, that would be a headache lol11:53
SiDipsycho_oreos: what is the problem exactly ?11:53
confusiousokay folks....I think I gonna go shower & maybe hit the sack now & try this another way in a few more hours11:54
Hotcoralgood night, though it's afternoon here :)11:54
confusiousoh yeah time to go...the boss has arisen I'm in trouble now11:54
psycho_oreosSiDi, not xubuntu specific I'm afraid, just some files like /usr/lib/libGL.so and /opt/kde3/share/applications/external/snmpcheck.desktop are going to be overwritten by other packages11:55
confusiousya'll have a fantastic day...much peace & happiness to all of ou11:55
confusiousyou11:55
SiDiconfusious: cheers11:55
confusiousnighty-night11:55
SiDipsycho_oreos: but why a package would want to overwrite them ?11:55
SiDiit sounds to me like this package embeds libs it's not responsible of11:56
psycho_oreosSIDi I'm assuming both are meta packages.. these are two different video chipset drivers that I'm trying to get both installed so that they will work as livedvd image.. yes I'm literally making a livedvd image of some other distro with updated stuff11:57
SiDioh11:58
SiDiwell you shouldnt have them both installed on a live CD :/ I think you should have mesa installed and the other ones available to users when they install the distro :/11:59
psycho_oreosproblem is I can't uninstall it lol, apt-get now complains about a video driver and the other is snmpcheck11:59

Hetor`Hi, does anybody know how to allow any user to run the X server?16:59
gorgutok. Im about to pull my hair out with this. My laptop randomly can't detect eth0 anymore.18:39
gorgutsome boots, it will work normally then eventually freeze, and the some boots it will not detect eth0 at all and i can never get it to find it again18:40
gorgutanyone have any ideas where to even start looking for a reason behind this?18:41
jogging_jondid you try ifconfig?18:41
gorgutjogging_jon, yeah, ifconfig -a doesnt even show it in the list on the times it decides not to detect it18:42
gorgutand im wondering if it's a hardware issue, because it's hit and miss like this even in a live CD/ live USB18:42
jogging_jonit could be possible.18:43
gorgut__ok18:50
gorgut__it dropped eth018:50
gorgut__had to reboot (luckily it decided to detect the interface this time)18:50
jogging_jonwhat interface is it using now?18:51
gorgut__eth018:51
gorgut__it's like the link dropped18:51
gorgut__the NetworkManager icon still showed it as connected, but I couldnt ping out or anything18:52
gorgut__so, i ifconfig'ed it down, and ifconfig'ed it back up18:52
gorgut__whenever i tried to bring it back up, it still showed it as disconnected and dmesg said "link not ready"18:52
jogging_jonI have no idea what is happening to you.18:55
gorgutdamn18:56
gorgutwhole computer froze that time18:56
gorguti booted to a live USB.... maybe it'll be more stable. In the good news department, I'm 3 for 3 on getting eth0 back at boot.18:56
gorgutmy install is xubuntu 9.0418:58
jogging_jonif you can use it with the live usb, its not a hardware problem.18:59
