<4> How can I install ubuntu 6.06 without using X ?
<4> or an earlier version of ubuntu
<5> korozion: i'm ALWAYS playing oTTD
<5> go look on the server list for a server called clarkee
<6> hello, what should i use to unpack .rar movies in dapper?
<7> CyreZ-, try using 'apt-cache search <words>', it will allow you to view a list of files based on your search parameters.
<7> use quotation marks to represent spaces, if you search for 'apt-cache search rar' then it will return results of packages that have words containing 'rar' like 'library'. apt-cache search ' rar' utilizing a space allows for words that start with 'rar'
<7> try it out
<6> i got a file named rar from a forum
<6> i put it in /usr/bin/ and i could now unpack
<7> no
<7> apt-get install unrar
<6> they said it wont work on all rar files
<7> the non-free one will work on all rar files
<7> the free one only works on rar files < v3.0
<6> yes
<6> but i don
<6> but i don't intend to pay for it
<7> it's shareware, you can use it without paying for it for X amount of days as stated in the licencing agreement, you can keep using it afterwards, but you'll be violating the license agreement, to get around that, you can reinstall the file 'apt-get --reinstall install unrar' if you really care about the license agreement
<7> it won't stop working
<6> oh
<6> it's as easy on windows
<8> hey i'm on the ubuntu download page, and there are the usual desktop and server ISOs, but what's the alternate package?
<8> i've checked the documentation but can't seem to find anything about it
<5> ...
<5> then why are you worried
<5> Note if you wish to save download time and bandwidth if doing multiple machinces then download the 'alternative' iso to burn to cdrom (this was known as install cdrom before live/desktop cdrom got an installer).
<5> Get the from same sources at desktop cdroms.
<5> http://releases.ubuntu.com/
<5> On inserting this cdom synaptic package manager should prompt you to add it a source, do so. Now when doing upgrade it should take packages from cdrom rather than online.
<5> Also if on dial up one should get such a cdrom from a friend or supplier.
<5> Also one can get a xubuntu alternative cdrom if one wishs to try XFC desktop in addition to GNOME desktop. Just type:
<5> sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
<5> at command line after having added xubuntu alternative cdrom as a source. Note to switch to desktop one has to use session menu at login screen.
<5> I understand it will only be the desktop cdroms available from shipit, but other suppliers will I ***ume supply alternative cdrom, also DVD will play role of both as before I ***ume and that should find itself as magazine coverdisk soon.
<6> btw, i installed unrar and it worked good trough terminal =)
<5> wicked
<5> sudo apt-get install unrar ?
<6> i meant the unraring
<6> unrar e file.r00 and it unpacked the rest of the files
<5> oh good
<9> hi i have a question.How can i make gnome use my aspell in every gnome application?
<7> the application has to support it
<7> from what I understand
<9> can't use it for all gnome applications? like KDE
<7> if every gnome application supports that capability, yes. Otherwise, no.
<9> for ex xchat supports/
<7> xchat isn't a gnome application
<7> a gnome application is an application that utilizes gnome libraries
<7> an example of which is gaim
<9> hmmmmmm ok
<9> gaim can handle only my aspell-en
<9> what about apell-el whitch is installed?
<7> dunno
<9> onnest
<9> ..
<7> i've never implemented what you want
<9> in firefox is there any plugin you know ?
<9> on opera...
<9> so
<9> z
<9> i think i found it thank you very much
<7> for firefox, have a look at the plugins and extension https://addons.mozilla.org
<5> hey ferro
<5> how's it going
<7> not bad, nearly 1:30am... almost crash time
<7> was working on some articles before, but too much beer == god knows what i'll write
<7> oop
<8> is there a way to install the non-server i386 version of dapper the old fashioned way and not using a live CD?
<10> yes
<10> "alternate" one
<10> there is 2 types of iso
<10> alternate and desktop
<10> alternate = text installer ("old fashioned")
<8> oo awesome
<10> desktop = live cd with graphical installer ("not old fashioned")
<5> i bet it's quicker too
<10> well.. no graphical overhead and no need to wait 30-60s for it to boot up
<10> besides.. hows the graphical installer.. ive never seen it hahaha
<11> with dapper, is their a network utility that i can use to configure my dwl-g520 wireless pci card?
<11> gui utility i ment :D
<5> not sure if it's supported
<5> but if it is, a wireless signal indicator appears next to the clock
<5> click it, click configure
<7> the module/driver may not be loaded, it wasn't for my ibook, had to manually load the airport module
<7> find out the driver/module you need, make sure it is loaded via 'lsmod | grep <module name' if it's listed, it's loaded, if it's not 'modprobe <module/driver name>'
<11> i was using the wpa_supplicant lastnight, with the supplied madwifi driver, wpa_supplicant should load the driver eh?
<11> the card is detected at boot up
<11> anyone else have issues using a dwl-g520 pci card?
<7> http://www.google.com.au/search?hl=en&q=dwl-g520+linux&btnG=Search&meta=
<11> thanks ferro, tho i didn't expect you to do all that hard work for me :P :D
<7> took me 2seconds
<11> any reason why dapper doesn't include wpa_gui ?
<7> apt-get install wpagui
<7> learn to use 'apt-cache search <words>'
<11> the box only has a wifi nic in it. i think i might just move it, ssh into it, and apt-get for wpagui like you suggested ferro.
<11> the included Network Configuration utility with dapper only supports wep correct ?
<7> wep, wpa-psk, wpa-psk2, depends on your card
<11> hrm interesting :/ well thanks ferro for the info.
<7> np
<8> just booted into dapper, fresh install on my laptop (acer travelmate 8104), blank as it loads X, i could hear the bongo drum u get the login prompt. trouble is i can't get into the other consoles with ctrl + alt + f2 etc., what can i do?
<8> surely it shouldnt blank screen on a console
<7> you're right, it 'shouldn't'. Guess you have problems with the video card your laptop uses
<7> ati or nvidia?
<8> how can you quickly tell if you have any ssh sessions open and who they're to?
<7> ps aux | grep sshd | grep priv
<12> type in a terminal: w <enter>
<12> or who
<7> that isn't limited to ssh connections
<12> true
<8> trying to port forward; ive got my dapper box running ssh server, and i've got my windows client running putty set up so connections to a local port 8989 are routed to <address of a direct connect hub i know:port>, and i've connected to my dapper box via normal ssh. i open up my direct connect client and then try to connect to 127.0.0.1:8989 but it says the server actively refused the connection
<8> im pretty sure the forwarding's alright as when i change the target of the port forwarding to 127.0.0.1 and then get the client to ssh to itself, it tries to connect to the dapper box, implying it's working
<8> and when its setup to port forward 8989 to the dc hub address and i try to open a raw connection on the windows client to 127.0.0.1:8989 it says connection refused
<13> tunnels, best thing about ssh
<13> cougem: you get it figured out?
<14> stupid question: i tried to type "startx" to get the.. graphic screen. but it didn't work. which commando should i use?
<15> merilin, mabe "gdm", or "kdm", "startx gnome"
<16> lo
<14> Tsu: thank you :)
<15> lo
<17> Does anyone know how to change a users p***word inline, ie, 'p***wd user newp***' instead of having it double prompt?
<16> i dont think thats possible
<16> afaik
<16> kinda defeats the purpose
