<1> Hey, if I'm going to install Ubuntu, what size partition should I probably start with?
<1> I'm tri-booting
<1> XP, Ubuntu, Vista
<1> Anyone have an idea?
<1> Should 15 gigs be fine?
<0> anyone know?
<0> anyone here know how t oget dual monitor support under ubuntu?
<0> im running current 6.06 with a dell and pci nvndia
<2> Is there any way I can get a list of utilities available through apt-get ?
<3> utilities?
<2> specifically I'm looking for a bittorrent client
<2> er
<2> programs
<3> apt-cache search PROGRAM
<2> ok
<2> I didn't see anything, how do I unpack a file of type .rpm ?
<3> you don't want to
<2> oh
<2> heh
<3> apt-cache search torrent SHOULD find something
<3> http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Dapper#How_to_add_extra_repositories read that too
<2> korozion: apparently I already have bittorrent installed and I installed Bittornado for good measure
<2> how do I open the programs?
<2> or should I just locate a torrent I want to use, and execute it?
<4> which package provides the md5 binary?
<4> never mind, md5sum is what I'm looking for
<5> md5sum is in coreutils
<4> FireEgl: :)
<0> anyone here able to get twinview dual monitors to work beyond 1024x768?
<6> is Ubuntu Server commandline only?
<7> that'd make sense to me dr|j
<7> aka. yes
<8> morning
<7> evening
<8> heh
<8> some guy at work is trying to give me a handjob (not literially) because i installed xgl and compiz on his laptop
<8> never been flooded with so many screenshot emails in my life
<8> exchange is crying
<9> Hello. How do I set nautilus not to ask me if it should run in terminal an executable file, or to display its contents?
<9> I just want the script to run.
<8> wow
<8> some people just dont want to stick about for help
<10> hello
<10> anyone who can help me with ubuntu for a while..
<8> what's up
<11> hiya
<11> i apt-get install mysql-server
<11> how do iset a username and a p***word?
<12> it tells u after installing it
<11> no it doesn't
<7> i suggest you read the extensive documentation avaliable to all, google
<8> ufk: it's a mysql question, not a ubuntu one
<8> try googling for "mysql install secure" or something similar
<7> or "mysql starting guide"
<8> i just put xubuntu on my laptop
<8> should really leave work early to fix up xgl and compiz on it
<8> but i'm sure these bitches will complain
<7> they always do
<11> it's an ubuntu question
<7> to which you should give a maniacle laugh
<7> don't argue with voiced users, they're voiced because they know wtf they're talking about. There is *tons* of documentation out there for getting started with mysql, it's the same for each distrobution, therefore it is *not* ubuntu specific
<7> use the documentation people have spent their life energy creating, just to help users like you
<11> i know there are tons of docs for installing mysql
<11> but with all do respect i expect from mysql packages to give me a minial explanation on how to configure it
<11> maybe the basic mysqld server packages was installed with the installation of the system so it didn't show me any docs i donno
<7> then you expect too much, the information is out there, but it's not going to be forced down your throat
<7> google for the documentation
<11> ok... i have mysql up and running! that's not my question
<11> and Alien_II wrote 'it tells u after installing it'. it didn't tell me! that's all what i wanted to know about
<11> great support channel
<10> what might be the problem when vlc and totem shuts down while trying to play an avi file..mplayer plays it laggy but sound is wrong it says
<7> badly encoded avi file
<7> totem is pretty crap btw, always crashes on me, it's a front-end to 'xine', but 'xine' will probably work where totem fails, install the xine package and see if that works for you
<10> straight from synaptec?
<8> googling "mysql set root p***word"
<8> mysql set root p***word
<8> mysql> SET P***WORD FOR root@localhost=P***WORD('rubberchicken');
<7> yeah, you can use synaptic, it's just a graphical front end to the 'apt' system, you can quickly install xine via the console with 'sudo apt-get install xine-ui'
<7> don't spoon feed him clark0r, he'll just keep asking questions he can find out within 2mins of googling
<8> i had a small /msg with him and advised he found the package maintainer and asked him to ammend the package install script
<7> fair enough
<8> i am a member of #freebsd, where there is NO help and people get BANNED for asking questions
<8> so i know how to point people in the right direction without giving them the answer
<8> h3h
<10> ferro: the picture in gxine is blurry, and cant play up movies..what now?
<7> you have a crappy avi file CyreZ-, that's all I can really say.
<10> i tried mpeg file and 2 avi files
<7> mm
<7> ok, increase the buffer size with mplayer
<7> what are you running this on?
<10> ubuntu on a laptop 1000mhz
<7> how much ram?
<10> think it was 128
<7> do 'free -m' and tell me the numbers under the collumn 'free'
<10> 1,35,170. but now i got much things up
<10> gaah...when i have ssh on terminal the screen goes blue or white..i have to change chhannel to c what you have write
<10> btw, the sound worked on xine but not in other players
<7> sorry mate, it's a bit hard understanding your english, there is a finnish channel on irc.freenode.net #ubuntu-fi
<10> oh thx mate
<7> np
<9> Hello. I am using Ubuntu 6.06 with Gnome. I have a question. How do I set
<9> python scripts to run by double-clicking them? I did the following:
<9> 1) Put a shebang line #!/usr/bin/env python
<9> 2) Made them executable (chmod +x)
<9> But still, they don't run when I double click them. Maybe, should I try to change the Open With? I made them Open With python, but nothing happened. I made them Open With terminal, but nothing happened. I even made them Open With xterm -e python but nothing happened. Can you help me please?
<9> Thank you a lot in advance.
