[06:12] can you please suggest me about https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-users/2010-November/234334.html ? [06:13] kaushal: No need to post twice. Also, try the forums. [06:14] kaushal: I'm not sure if you can easily configure two networks at once; networking isn't my speciality. I'm sure it can be cone across multiple interfaces, though. [06:15] aveilleux: yeah [06:16] kaushal: Like, I know what you're asking is technically possible, I just don't know how easily it can be done since I've never done it. [06:44] You don't have the right permissions to extract archives in the folder "file:///usr/local" [06:45] how to unzip to a certain folder as root? [09:25] hi [09:25] i want to install a text editor on ubuntu 10.10 [09:25] i'd like to install notepad++ [09:26] how can i do that? [09:26] windows application, I assume? [09:27] yes [09:27] doomgiver, you should have gedit by default on ubuntu [09:27] on other ubuntu variantions usually a program called leafpad [09:27] yes i do have gedit [09:28] but does it handle multiple languages like C/perl?? [09:28] i've just used gedit for basic scripts in bash [09:29] http://live.gnome.org/Gedit/Plugins [09:29] thanks!! [09:30] also, is there a way to change power settings, like max performance, power saver, aka windows? [09:30] i've just migrated to linux, so im thinking in windows terms [09:31] one more question; if im a good enough programer, can i modify the way ubuntu looks??? [09:31] well, your machine should be using "on-demand" by default [09:31] you dont need to be a programmer to do that [09:31] http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=203093 [09:32] doomgiver, on-demand is the most optimized setting, for real [09:32] the first thing i'd do is get the buttons to the right!!! [09:32] hahahahaha [09:32] thanks... [09:32] so, it'll change setting based on usage? [09:33] coz right now my hard drive is getting pretty hot, and i'm just surfing... [09:33] hmmm [09:33] your dc cord is plugged in [09:33] and you dont see that battery icon? [09:33] in system tray [09:34] not originaly, but i've changed the settings. it is now visible [09:34] well, if you click that battery icon, you get the preferences [09:34] there's a setting "spin down hard drive" [09:34] or something like that [09:35] yes, i selected it.. [09:35] any options for modifying spindown times? [09:35] i'd like to keep it at 1 min [09:36] I think it can be done with hdparam [09:36] hdparm [09:36] alright... i'll check the man [09:37] noob question: how to run terminal with kbrd shortcut? [09:37] there's some --idle switches [09:37] doomgiver, I usuall do it with alt+f2 and type my terminal [09:37] I'm using urxvt [09:37] whats that? [09:37] rxvt-unicode [09:38] still confused... [09:38] you can type there "gnome-terminal" or something like that [09:38] or just "xterm" [09:39] ok... thanks!!!

Could you help me? I tried every solution I found on forums but none worked [16:27] iwconfig does't list my card any more, nor does ipconfig [16:28] but the card is there, it works with puppy linux and ndiswrapper there, no issues [16:30] I tried changing the drivers but nothing good came of it, and I just get mad thinking that it worked fine before [16:33] mariella: could you type; "lspci | grep Ethernet" without quotes in terminal and pastebin it?

[16:38] already done..it didnt't work, I have a 64bit lucid and I used 64bit driver before successfully [16:39] mariella: have you tried the 64-bit driver described there? [16:39] yes [16:40] I tried that on that site and others I found [16:40] ah, let me find more info/doc. [16:42] mariella: have you also tried, System > Administration > Hardware Drivers ? [16:42] I tried this too http://www.skd.de/e_en/support/driver_searchresults.html?navanchor=&term=typ.treiber+produkt.SK-54C1&produkt=produkt.SK-54C1&typ=typ.treiber&system= [16:42] hi everyone [16:42] hello [16:42] yes, I tried the grafical and directly from the shell [16:42] i have a little question... [16:42] is maveric better than lucid? [16:43] maverick vs lucid.... [16:43] my system froze a lot of times and it didn't see the card either [16:43] i see [16:44] hi [16:45] lucid is lt, maverick is not [16:46] and if I fix my bug I think I will not upgrade anything soon [16:49] i just started using lucid [16:50] I like lucid, and Hardy before that, but I should be less trusting with updates :-) [16:51] im new to the whole thing... took me a while to figure out how to get my soundcard to work and play dvd's but other than that i havn't had any problems [16:53] mariella: could you type this in your terminal (not here) "dmesg | grep -ie ndis -ie wlan0 -ie error" without quotes, and paste it at http://paste.ubuntu.com ? [16:54] neither did I [16:55] I had to tweak the fonts a bit.......the default one was horrible [16:56] pasted [16:56] as mariella [16:56] mariella: could you give me the link. [16:57] http://paste.ubuntu.com/530779/ [17:00] whats the best music player? something similar to winamp? [17:01] trhisdone: I can't live without exaile for my musical needs. Depends though if you want full featured or something better on resources. [17:02] something full featured [17:03] If you're using gnome I'd suggest exaile, if you're using kde I'd suggest amarok. [17:03] there are a lot, I use whatever is already installed :-), I really can't hear the difference [17:03] amarok and exeile are nice too [17:05] im looking for something similar to winamp.... the installed ones are not even close [17:05] i will try exaile [17:05] good choice!! [17:06] mariella: could you type "sudo lshw -C network" and "lsmod | grep ndis" in the terminal and paste in paste.ubuntu.com [17:06] one at a time in the terminal. [17:06] now if i could just find a nero replacement i might never use windows again [17:07] brasero is usually enough for most disk burning taks, you can try k3b too [17:08] http://paste.ubuntu.com/530785/ [17:08] i used k3b but it doesnt let you burn to multiple drives at the same time like nero [17:08] unless its some option i couldn't find [17:08] trhisdone: I'd add a +1 to brasero for gnome or +1 for k3b if you're using kde. [17:10] can exaile play flac files? [17:11] http://paste.ubuntu.com/530786/ now I 'm online with a usb card, dlink DWL-G122 [17:13] nevermind.....dumb question [17:13] trhisdone: yep, it's all I use. [17:16] mariella: i'm out of ideas, you could try this guide; http://art.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=885847 or stick around here or try asking at #ubuntu. i'm sure there are alot of people better skilled at this than me. :-/ [17:17] You cut yourself short, I'm sure :-) thanks a lot anyway [17:18] You've been really nice !! [17:18] im using gnome [17:41] awful quiet in there [17:49] trhisdone: guess folks just dont need support right now ;) === karthick1987 is now known as karthick87 [17:59] true [17:59] whats a good dvd player? [18:00] I'm fond of mplayer. Many will probably suggest vlc. [18:01] yeah im using vlc [18:01] kaffeine is usable too, but last time I tried it even totem would play a dvd. [18:02] And the default media player (totem) can play dvds quite well too if I'm not mistaken. [18:02] :) [18:02] im talking about dvd files on the computer..........kaffeine is good for actual dvds [18:03] well, you can try totem, I usually use smplayer or vlc though too [18:03] I am going goodbye. [18:03] vlc looks a little jerky... i been messing with the deinterlace settings but i can still see the jerking [18:04] its very slight [18:06] ok just figured it out....you have right click the dvd folder and use open with kaffeine [18:06] but when you try to open it from within kaffeine you get an error [18:06] wierd [18:09] well im going to go eat....thanks for the help [18:13] (OT, humour) Techsupport's been around for a loong time. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pQHX-SjgQvQ === Phrea is now known as FireBeard === shadeslayer is now known as evilshadeslayer [22:13] I'm trying to run a python program, but running into an error. http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/530909/ [22:19] johnny77, apt-cache search libdns [22:20] bioterror: run that in the command line? what does it do?
