[00:00] jaybee__: most are stored there, get the numbers from terminal (sudo apt-get update) [00:00] oh why? I would like to have both of them so I can use both [00:00] qin, and i have a side by side installation of windows and ubuntu... [00:00] qin, though most call it dual boot [00:00] RocketSnail: provided you have enough space for ubuntu yes you can [00:00] I mean will anything bad happen? (to qin and rin) :) [00:00] so there is no way to have compiz enabled but have standard gnome classic no effects window decoration? [00:00] hello [00:01] rinkukokiri: Nope, side by side, means one partition and two systems. [00:01] i need some help please [00:01] okay, so there isn't anything bad/ silly ? [00:01] rinkukokiri: And it is generally bad idea. [00:01] s0up: do you have ccsm installed? [00:01] !ask | ionwind [00:01] ionwind: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [00:01] :P === szal_ is now known as szal [00:01] yes WinstonSmith [00:01] RocketSnail: Yes, have Linux on separate partition. [00:01] ok , good evening first [00:01] RocketSnail: no. i have used somthing like that for years [00:01] DasEi, the numbers are the numbers like 22 in "Get:22 http://security.ubuntu.com natty-security/universe i386 Packages" ? [00:01] if i uncheck window decoration all of my movement lag fixes itself but i lose the window controls [00:02] OK thanks for trying to help.. Time to re-boot windoze.. [00:02] RocketSnail: dualboot is fine, to be on the safe side, consider partioning in first hand, f.e. from windows [00:02] my problem.... i update 11.04 and the grub is missing [00:02] s0up: did you try turning off plugins in there to see if you system gets more responsive? [00:02] <[THC]AcidRain> Free disk space, hit me up. thx to ubuntu community for making it possible! [00:02] i can just came in livecd [00:02] that's what I meant qin :/ sorry. but thanks to you three :) I mean four :D. and I'll do that Das :) [00:02] WinstonSmith: ive tried every setting in window decoration with no luck [00:02] qin,Is this during installation? It means that it will shrink whatever is already installed to make space for Ubuntu and will install it "side by side" on the same physical drive as the existing operating system. [00:02] ie: if you had one hard-drive with one partition on it containing Windows, then that partition would be shrunk down and a second partition created on that drive to put Ubuntu on, thus one drive, two partitions - installed "side by side". [00:03] qin http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1152532 [00:03] s0up: Did you try to enable decoration and add ! in front of (any)? [00:03] nope should i try that? [00:03] i need some 1 who make a team to came in terminal. i try but i cant :( [00:03] jaybee__:if you do an update and have no pgp-key for a repo, terminal will respond like .... the following keys are missing AF1CDFA7 [00:03] sorry about the dumb questions, i've never had issues like this but i dont think fglrx & 11.0.4 play very nicely yet [00:03] rinkukokiri: Mate, side by side is bad way of doing things, there is no forum post to chnage it. [00:03] ah. ta muchly [00:03] 10.10 here [00:04] * jaybee__ goes and reads manpages [00:04] rin that's what I made qin think I was doing. qins right, that would be dumb. I have 250g for my Win 7 partit. and I'd probably partit. 50g for my ubuntu partition [00:04] and no plan to update [00:04] Having trouble removing "firestarter" keeps saying I need to reinstall Tucan... Any help? [00:04] jaybee__: sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys AF1CDFA9 ,so taking above example to add them [00:04] rinkukokiri, you need a minimum of 2 partitions for ubuntu standard install.. some will get it to 1 by turning off swap.. [00:04] qin maybe if you read things, you would realize you are the only one that refers to 'side by side' as one partition, two systems [00:04] yes it install already without problem in my netbook but in the pc give me that ,mistake [00:04] actually qin window decoration enabled w/ the ! before leaves me with the same issue but the lag stays [00:05] but if i actually disable win decoration it goes back to being snappy [00:05] Having trouble removing "firestarter" keeps saying I need to reinstall Tucan... Any help? [00:05] also, when I use my jumpdrive install of ubuntu on school computers, why does it not boot and say "Grub not loading" and/or "Gnome not found" on some of the computers? [00:05] RocketSnail: 50Gb is more than decent, and Ubuntu can access Windows partition with no problem. Remember of swap, you may need this for hibernation. [00:05] okay [00:05] Can anyone tell me why when I do an 'ls' listing of a mounted NFS drive, the user and group names are represented in a numerical form? [00:05] bk, fix broken packages? [00:06] qin http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/images/createseparatehome01.png [00:06] RocketSnail: the ubuntu installer has a nice wizard who will walk you through all this. dont worry :) [00:06] side by side = two os on one drive, separately partitioned [00:06] I had a working Ubuntu 11.04 couple days ago and out of the blue, I get this wonder error from my monitor .... " Out of Range" [00:06] qin, according to ubuntu 9.04 install instructions [00:07] okay I pretty much lnow whati will do to install my ubuntu, but I'll tell you all right now: [00:07] rinkukokiri: ok, will have a look in to installer. [00:07] qin, all you have to do is click the link, it shows the step mentioned. [00:08] Hi qin [00:08] rinkukokiri: urxvt do not click links, moment [00:08] Hi Maletor [00:08] qin well if you're not going to look at the evidence, please stop arguing an invalid point [00:08] I'll turn my win7 part. into 2 parts, one for win7 , one for my ubuntu. it'll be 200g for win7, 50g for ubuntu. also there is like another part. already on my system that has recovery tools on it.

[00:19] rinkukokiri: Ok, never used "side by side" option of installer, and was right to do it, however, just assumed what mentioned option would place both systems on same partition, this do not find confirmation in ongoing research, so propably you are right. However I do strongly recommend use "manual" option anyway. [00:19] hey folks [00:19] dydt: either ntfs or ext3 [00:19] zgr: yes [00:19] qin, I usually manually specify too.

[00:55] I want one of the new models [00:55] just that.... i wait for more than a hour to restard [00:55] NiMH: you might have some issues, i believe hers is like one of the newest available (she got it like 4-5mo ago) [00:56] rehman, close synaptic or Ubuntu software Center, use "sudo" to run the commands [00:56] sudo apt-get update [00:56] ionwind: do you mean when you reboot, it takes an hour? Do you spend that hour in grub or is ubuntu checking your discs or what? [00:56] after [00:56] and at the end i need to reboot.... but no restard just ubuntu..... and nothing else [00:56] apt-get dist-upgrade [00:56] perscitus: unetbootin [00:56] What kind of problems did they have? I will probably stick with osx then [00:56] perscitus: aloha. can you rephrase your question more clearly please?

[00:58] ionwind:try posting to the forums, usually have more luck there [00:58] I didn't realize they were faster, I will try then [00:58] !gq | perscitus [00:58] perscitus: Are you sure your question allows us to help you? Please read http://www.sabi.co.uk/Notes/linuxHelpAsk.html to understand how to ask a 'better' question. [00:58] dodops, i don't see any updates or software center running, should restart the system?

See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines [00:59] NiMH: Usually less errors with the USB key as well. [00:59] In my experience anyway. [00:59] yeah, mine too [00:59] http://pastebin.com/pEf0gqDi [00:59] !usb > perscitus [00:59] perscitus, please see my private message [00:59] you can install everything to the flash drive too, if you like [00:59] IdleOne, he deserved it. [00:59] neat [00:59] rehman: generally said, the gma onboars where not too good supported in the past, but are said to have improved (no test on my side), I'd try with xorg.conf w/o compiz and a new kernel, also see : [00:59] !ppa [00:59] its all in the name [00:59] A Personal Package Archive (PPA) can provide alternate software not normally available in the offical Ubuntu repositories - Looking for a PPA? See https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas - WARNING: PPAs are unsupported third-party packages, and you use them at your own risk. [00:59] perscitus: no he didn't. We require all users be respectful at all times. [01:00] How can I check my laptop's temperature ? there is no /proc/acip/thermal_zone ..

[01:00] perscitus: if you can't follow that basic rule I suggest you find another channel to get help in. [01:00] ran the commands? [01:00] <[THC]AcidRain> to update is aptitude update package right? [01:00] NiMH: something you should note... my friend, could not get a USB to boot on her Macbook... she actually had to create a USB, and a CD, in order to use a linux live session. It's documented if you do some searching (again.. very new macbook) [01:00] dodops, yes but getting same error, nothing is running as update in my machine, should i restart it [01:01] that way i prefer some one who realy know what are doing make a team and do it propetly [01:01] ok, one more time; [01:01] DasEi, thanks . how i can run xorg.conf [01:01] will checkout google again. Thanks [01:01] if you have another pc, you can use ssh or vnc to connect to it [01:02] close, synaptic or software center if it's running [01:02] ionwind:this isn't actually the official ubuntu irc by the way [01:02] open konsole [01:02] Guys i use the "touching the two contacts with the screwdriver" method for booting my pc.. but i think i have touched something els while doing it.. have i fried the mb? if i try to boot it now the fans just turn on for 0.2 sec [01:02] so no choise for me .... :( [01:02] sudo add-apt-repository ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa [01:02] wtf [01:02] i try serveral times... every time worthes [01:02] sudo apt-get update [01:03] rehman, sudo apt-get dist-upgrade [01:03] so better lose all information, format all agian [01:03] thanx any where [01:03] rehman: disable compiz, edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf, it's empty or not even present in default, you can get a first structure by : sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg [01:03] LekeFly: probably better to try asking in ##hardware [01:03] IdleOne, i require that ubuntu work 100% of the time. [01:03] * gohdan arguing with ops... :P [01:03] and wait the system update, more or less 60mb for download [01:03] perscitus: good luck with that. [01:03] gohdan: paid support.. [01:03] lekeflay, try reseating the memory with thc pc disconnected [01:04] IdleOne, if it cant do that it shouldnt be released until it can. [01:04] and dont stick screwdrivers any where near it lol [01:04] winut: what memory? CMOS? [01:04] Kernel-Panic? God, Save me! hauhauahuah [01:04] NiMH: I'm not steering you away from Ubuntu, but Debian GNU Linux and Yellow Dog Linux have both worked well for Mac users in the past supporting the powerPC CPU architecture when it was a prominent feature on Mac systems. http://www.debian.org/ http://www.yellowdoglinux.com/ [01:04] memory and bios sure [01:05] I had two administrator users, one was the original created by the installer, and the other is one I created manualy, since I deleted the account of the original administrator (because I didn't need him yet), the other administrator user cannot authenticate in policykit dialogs, for instance in users and groups management [01:05] is there something to do to fix this situation? [01:05] The other day, someone (whose name I'm forgetting) helped me establish a VPN connection to my workplace on my Ubuntu (11) box. As of today, I'm getting an error message "The VPN connection failed." Can anyone help me troubleshoot? It was working fine this morning, and over the weekend. [01:06] waiting for jockey-backend to exit [01:06] what does that mean? does it mean its broken :(? [01:06] (when updating for first time) [01:06] lxdnr: try reinstalling vpn [01:06]
