| earthling_ | I was updating to firefox 6 on ubuntu 10.04 and it gave this error: http://uploadpic.org/v.php?img=GR4QPFRZp | 00:14 |
| earthling_ | firefox seems to work fine, though | 00:14 |

| Geodude | I installed Firefox 6 the other day and it's saying I don't have flash installed. But I do. It's in my Ubuntu Software Center, and flash is working in Chrome/Chromium. How do I tell Firefox I have flash installed already? | 04:09 |
| pedro3005 | and how did you install it? | 04:10 |
| pedro3005 | and do they have firefox 6 already? | 04:10 |
| Geodude | I downloaded the .tar.bz or whatever and I put it in the place where firefox 3.6 was. | 04:14 |
| pedro3005 | i'm not sure that qualifies as installing | 04:17 |
| Geodude | Well, it works with firefox %u | 04:23 |
| Geodude | So whatever you call that. | 04:24 |
| Geodude | How do you execute a .sh script? | 04:24 |
| pedro3005 | sh bla.sh, if i recall correctly | 04:25 |
| Geodude | It seriously can't be this difficult. I _already_ have flash installed! | 04:45 |
| bioterror | seems so | 04:50 |
| Geodude | Also, my update manager keeps popping-under and telling me I need to "upgrade" firefox 6 to firefox 3.6. Is there a way to disable that? | 04:51 |
| bioterror | what? | 04:52 |
| bioterror | how did you install FireFox 6? | 04:52 |
| Geodude | I did some CLI stuff and then I did firefox %u and it works. I don't know. | 04:53 |
| Geodude | I think I basically downloaded firefox 6, deleted the firefox 3.6 folder, and moved the firefox 6 folder in its place. | 04:54 |
| bioterror | Geodude, you should read about package management | 04:59 |
| bioterror | why using package manager is better than playing with random files | 05:00 |
| Geodude | Firefox 6 is not in a package manager right now. | 05:01 |
| Geodude | 3.6 is the last version Ubuntu supports. | 05:01 |
| IAmNotThatGuy | FF6 ? O_o? | 05:01 |
| bioterror | for fox sake! | 05:02 |
| Geodude | And I could never get flash working on that, either. | 05:02 |
| bioterror | !ppa | Geodude | 05:02 |

| IAmNotThatGuy | I am not finding a flash plugin for FF6 | 05:03 |
| bioterror | Geodude, https://launchpad.net/~mozillateam/+archive/firefox-stable | 05:03 |
| Geodude | I understand what a PPA is. | 05:03 |
| bioterror | then you climb to tree backwards? | 05:03 |
| bioterror | why | 05:04 |
| bioterror | fix for you firefox mixups | 05:04 |
| bioterror | and do dpkg-reconfigure for your flash | 05:04 |
| bioterror | if that's not fixing the problem, we can continue | 05:05 |
| Geodude | Wow, I wish someone had told me there was a 6.0 PPA. | 05:06 |
| Geodude | I spent two hours installing firefox manually. | 05:06 |
| Geodude | I added the PPA. it says 'remove'. | 05:06 |
| bioterror | you wasted two hours for that? took 30secs to load google, type "firefox ppa" without "" and press enter | 05:07 |
| Geodude | Unfortunately firefox.com doesn't say there's a PPA. It just says "download now! click here, linux user!" | 05:08 |
| bioterror | Geodude, yeah, that's for windows and mac users | 05:08 |
| Geodude | _"LINUX USER"_ | 05:08 |
| Geodude | It's a tar.bz2 file it's not for windows users lol. | 05:08 |
| bioterror | firefox.com is for Windows and Mac users | 05:09 |
| bioterror | Linux users always uses package manager | 05:09 |
| Geodude | Well, why does it say linux on it then? | 05:09 |
| bioterror | becouse they like to troll! | 05:09 |
| Geodude | lol | 05:09 |
| IAmNotThatGuy | bioterror, :P | 05:10 |
| Geodude | So, obviously I have firefox installed correctly. Because it's not giving me the option to install it. It says it's already installed. | 05:10 |
| bioterror | Geodude, sure you have if you rm -rf'd old one ;) | 05:10 |
| bioterror | and then copied those tar.bz2 files into that place | 05:11 |
| Geodude | So why were you telling me earlier that I messed it up? | 05:11 |
| bioterror | I'm rather sarcastic | 05:13 |
| Geodude | so how do I do dpkg-reconfigure for my flash? | 05:13 |
| Geodude | I'll come back when there are less trolls. | 05:18 |
| IAmNotThatGuy | is there a troll here? | 05:18 |

| philipballew | hey! my additional driver is not in use. but it says its activated. anyone know how to activate my graphics card | 06:03 |
| philipballew | hey! my additional driver is not in use. but it says its activated. anyone know how to activate my graphics card | 06:12 |
| bioterror | nvidia? | 06:13 |
| philipballew | yeah bioterror | 06:14 |
| bioterror | usually propietary drivers requires xorg.conf | 06:14 |
| bioterror | try nvidia-xconfig | 06:15 |
| philipballew | is that what i would modprobe? | 06:15 |
| CrOnOs2000 | when i just install 11.04 was the same untill i get my updates for the kernel no the same card but still an nvidia | 06:15 |
| philipballew | idk, i just upgraded to 11.04 last week and then the aditional drivers app has my nvidia driver not enabled. i enabled it. now it says its enabled but not in use | 06:17 |
| CrOnOs2000 | what module are you using i remember see 2 of them first was not stable or something and the second was the recomended on my system | 06:18 |
| philipballew | thats what i have CrOnOs2000 i activated the recomended one. but it claims to not be in use | 06:19 |
| CrOnOs2000 | exacly the same for me i dont know what was the problem but when i updated the kernel all was ok, why dont you try the new nvidia module it may fix the problem | 06:21 |
| adrian__ | hi I have just installed ubuntu 11.04 Desktop on my Presario-V6000 (hp laptop)the v6000 has broadcom network and wireless built in and needs the commands 'sudo modprobe -r b43 ssb' followed by 'sudo modprobe b43' to switch the wireless on everytime ubuntu is started how do I now make this module part of my kernel build? | 10:15 |
| r4y | I am running atari800 on Ubuntu and this is the command I have to open it: atari800 -width 1024 -height 768 -dsprate 48000 -fullscreen | 10:57 |
| r4y | When I open atari800 the emulator I want to make it automatically Run Atari program, so I can pick right from the roms. the manpage says to use -run but if I put that at the end of this command atari800 doesn't open, and if I put -run right after atari800 atari800 is not in fullscreen and I remember if fullscreen isn't added fullscreen doesn't work. | 10:59 |
| bioterror | I have Atari 2600jr. | 10:59 |
| bioterror | part of my childhood! | 10:59 |
| r4y | Mine as well. | 10:59 |
| r4y | I wanted to see what atari 800 is like for fun. | 11:00 |
| r4y | I remember Jungle Hunt and Moon Patrol, and many others, but there are a lot more games for the Atari 2600 then I knew existed. | 11:02 |
| r4y | -run doesn't seem to do what I want atari800 to do anyways | 11:03 |
| r4y | Can I run a keyboard as part of a command somehow after an emulator is started? or program is started? | 11:09 |
| r4y | I meant keyboard shortcut | 11:09 |
