Comments:

<0> ?
<1> Cyorxamp: You might have better luck in #ubuntu-devel
<2> ah!
<3> ljl: Yeah, but it's hard to tell. If I try using lvm, it fails during makedev etc
<2> PuMpErNiCkLe - well its not so much about the software side of things, but more the wiki
<4> is anybody here using camera monitor? http://infinito.f2o.org/cameramonitor/index.php
<5> CuriosCat, are you order CD from Ubuntu site?
<3> s0me1: Yes.
<6> Well hey there Dr_Willis...yes I just haven't figured out how to get at the config file for that term..in this case the default that installs with gnome(as you know I am running dapper)
<5> ah
<7> CuriosCat: look you could try running a live cd, seeing if it works, and seeing if it can see your SCSI drive. though you might just end up wasting your time -- also since having a module loaded at runtime is quite different from having it load inside initrd
<3> hey, it was free, couldn't p*** up a deal like that
<8> CuriosCat; dumb question, do you know that the cd's actually good? my first batch I got delivered had hairlines cracks,
<3> cwillu: I've installed with this CD on about half a dozen machines successfully
<8> okay



<8> same architecture, config, etc?
<3> so while I can't be POSITIVE (maybe there's a scratch right on a driver that this particular machine needs), I'm reasonably certain
<5> LjL, you are right , just for test
<7> CuriosCat: still... i think you could still check the md5sum of your CD
<8> (unlikely to make a difference, I know, but I've had that happen)
<5> CuriosCat, try it
<3> ljl: Probably worth a shot. But what do I run md5sum against?
<3> /dev/hdc?
<7> CuriosCat: after all, perhaps the other machines had IDE drives or something that didn't hit the corrupted parts of the CD
<7> CuriosCat: yeah, i think that should work
<9> openldap server is only available from apt-get via ultrapossum?
<5> CuriosCat, try use live Cd
<10> debian installer had option to test the cd...
<3> so does fedora
<7> CuriosCat: it might take some time though i suppose (but not really, as the CD will be read linarly...)
<11> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu says "doing a server install of Ubuntu" - anyone have a URL for how to do that?
<3> and fedora bugs out on this machine too in spite of the CD p***ing
<12> hi there.. what theme i should use to have cpu load and memory.. on my desktop ?
<3> ljl: I'll start it and go do something else. Not worried about it
<0> There were no decoders found to handle the stream, you might need to install the corresponding plugins.
<0> what decoder is it talkin about?
<12> and if it can to be a bit transparent
<1> dstryr: What format is the stream in?
<3> ljl: the main reason I'm trying this out is to evaluate fedora as a server OS. I already like it for a desktop Linux.
<13> Belea_: gdesklets has lots of stuff like that
<3> err, not fedora. ubuntu. duh.
<0> .wmv
<0> im trying to play a video
<5> CuriosCat, Live CD to test your hardware
<0> but it wont play
<14> Belea_: I use gkrellm with the klearllm theme
<5> lol
<3> s0me1: worth a shot
<0> it says: There were no decoders found to handle the stream, you might need to install the corresponding plugins
<15> OK, I finished installing ubuntu and configured KDE and GNOME the way I want. I inserted a CDROM, where the heck is it? Currently using KDE.
<16> Belea: using a composite manager / opengl will put some wicked eye canding on your screen (transparents windows, etc).. its buggy sometimes though. i turn it off most of the time unless i'm trying to show it off ;)
<12> thx guys
<10> !wmv
<17> rumour has it, restricted is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats Most of the formats listed here can be replaced by !FreeFormats
<1> dstryr: Have you checked teh restricted formats and w32codecs pages for help? They're the ones that cover things like wmv.
<1> !restriced
<17> parse error: Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, PuMpErNiCkLe
<1> !restricted
<17> from memory, restricted is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats Most of the formats listed here can be replaced by !FreeFormats
<1> !w32codecs
<17> well, w32codecs is a compilation of binary win32 A/V codecs for many popular proprietary formats not currently supported by free implementations under linux. See http://tinyurl.com/e4a5s to install
<0> but is there any way to play though?
<7> CuriosCat: http://linux.derkeiler.com/Mailing-Lists/Ubuntu/2006-01/msg00928.html
<7> CuriosCat: no solution there, but it does sound similar to your problem (though the guy's using a custom made CD)
<1> dstryr: Yes, by installing the plugins, as detailed above by ubotu. ^^^^
<8> from /proc/sys, why doesn't ls *swap* -R show swappiness? I think I'm misunderstanding what ls -R actually does...
<18> impossible to open file with lock /var/lib/apt/lists/lock (open 3 access denied) <----- wtf is that when i apt-get again?
<11> cppnewbie: did you sudo?
<8> synaptic open?
<8> using sudo?
<19> welp, filtering network connections based on iptables is dead in the water
<19> apparently -m owner --gid-owner only matches on the PRIMARY group
<3> ok, trying the liveCD
<19> and not all
<7> CuriosCat: uhm have you tried p***ing the infamous "acpi=off" parameter to the kernel when booting? i've found someone on google who said he solved this initrd problem doing that
<10> !version



<17> hmm... version is to check version of Ubuntu use lsb_release -a
<18> ah finally
<18> it works now
<8> k
<20> Hello all
<3> ljl: Hrm. That's worth a shot. Let's see what LiveCD does
<18> what happens if i dont use sudo?
<15> Can someone tell me how to mount my CD? I put one in, but it does not mount.
<7> cppnewbie: that you don't have root priviledges ;)
<18> sounds normal to me but in the guide im following in here theres nothing about sudo apt-getting, only apt-get alone
<21> i have just installed ubunto. everything was ok with the installation. when i log in to ubunto, after i write the p***, it shows me a brown window and then nothing happens. i can move my mouse but i can't do nothing else
<2> !paste
<17> Don't flood the channel! Please use the pastebin at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ or the channel #flood to paste large amount of text.
<2> thanx ubotu
<18> any !help command in the chan or something? :D
<19> M_A_K: use the following command from a terminal mount /dev/hdc /media/cdrom0
<2> WHAT do people think of this suggestion??? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9684
<22> does there exist somewhere in the world a graphics card that Ubuntu supports fully with 3D and DVI?
<18> !help
<23> most nvidia stuff
<24> How do I strike-through text on the ubuntu wiki?
<8> cppnewbie; what guide are you following?
<15> onceler : how can I get this to automount?
<4> why would an icon not show up in my menu panel? using gnome and even though if (by chance) i happen to right click on an invisible icon... the icon does not show up?!
<18> well it says apt-get update and apt-get install foo
<22> iBalo, i guess i have bad luck, always getting cards with problems. wold you have a spcific model number?
<19> M_A_K: gnome and kde should both have device monitors that automatically mount them
<22> would*
<22> specific*
<8> cpp;?
<15> Hmmm, when I put the disk in, it did not mount.
<19> M_A_K if they don't, i don't know how to fix them. maybe its disable-able somewhere?
<10> Cyorxamp, i would be for manufactures writing the needed info in their manual or web...
<25> Cyorxamp, ya proberly should of edited/cleaned it up quite a bit.. and this is a 'big' issue. :P lol.. but the system now works for most people fine.. so dont expect much to happen.
<8> cppnewbie; what guide are you following?
<25> work time.. byeee....
<18> wanna link? its not ubuntu specific but its about making psp apps lol :p
<1> Cyorxamp: Makes sense to me, but I doubt I'd use it, personally.
<8> yep
<8> cppnewbie; sudo is basically how you avoid shooting yourself in the foot
<2> oskude - yeah but as I said in the post - not everyone has a manual... esp if the person who made ur card/monitor has gone bump
<10> Cyorxamp, and you need "trusted" users to add those entries, i know im too lazy for that...
<26> Hi
<18> http://harleyg.linuxlabs.co.uk/tutorials/psp/pspdev/1.html
<23> cyphase: sorry, i don't know the latest nvidia-range... but any recent nvidia will be fine, double check with google when you targeted a specifc model..
<26> can anyone tell me how to set the resolution in this?
<8> cppnewbie; anything (for certain values of anything) that could break the system won't work unless you sudo it
<22> hmm
<27> can anyone tell me why my hp laserjet 4 plus printer isn't working with ubuntu 5.10?
<1> Cyorxamp: And from my experience, it's not the vid cards/monitors that are the worst, it's the sound. (That's a software problem, though, not so much a config one.)
<8> keeps you from, say, formatting your drive by accident, etc
<10> Cyorxamp, but i have NOTHIG against your idea. would be nice to have a "drag drop" archive of know device etc sections....
<18> sounds good, perhaps u could help me with that guide thing. guess foo isnt a specific package or something?
<4> anyone using a labtec webcam pro here?
<8> but sudo isn't used by every distro, so if you're following instructions that don't know anything about it, you can usually just put sudo before the instructions that don't work
<18> it says debian and afaik ubuntu is debian based
<10> Cyorxamp, as it could be easier/faster to update as the "automatic" funtion in the debian config
<8> yes, but debian doesn't neccessarily use sudo :)
<26> how do I change screen resolution?
<28> Yo, How i must configure fstab to can removing and making files on windows partition NTFS, ( currently i have: /dev/hda1 /media/hda1 vfat defaults 0 0 )
<8> one sec, let me peek at that url
<1> sesq: NTFS isn't writeable in Linux - the support isn't there for it. It's not a config problem.
<10> Cyorxamp, but the BEST would be people would send their setting to the devs so they can add it to the automatic script, that way noobs wouldnt have to do nothign...
<1> sesq: Ok, that's not entirely true - under certain conditions, you can write to NTFS, but it's very limited.
<2> what automatic scripts?!!?
<23> Can anyone recommend a good RTS-game for linux, preferrably one that's in the repos :-) (No commercial one)
<1> iBalo: RTS?
<27> can anyone tell me why my hp laserjet 4 plus printer isn't working with ubuntu 5.10?
<28> PuMpErNiCkLe, ok, and on fat32 can i write ?
<23> real time strategy
<1> sesq: Yes. FAT32 is definitely supported.
<29> wazz up PEOPLE!
<18> i ***ume they know that iBalo lol :p
<27> nothing
