Comments:
<0> i'll t ry something else
<1> Ratty_: also you could try the "videogen" packages, which can generate modelines for you, though it's not too easy to use (at least for me)
<2> anyone here using an nForce4 board with Breezy?
<3> I am running 5.10 Breezy I guess it's called, and I still have so many questions, but one question is, I see 4 workspaces, but can I have more? how?
<4> is there anyway i can configure the acpi in the kernel configuration ???
<5> Zoroaster, yes, try right click on the worspace switcher
<2> Zoroaster, right click on the workspace icons on the taskbar, choose Preferences
<6> hi all - just setup 5.10 with Samba and NFS shares but I can't log in to my SMB from Windows XP Pro - it just won't accept my credentials...what can i check?
<2> i was wondering if anyone was running an nForce4 board and managed to get USB2 to work
<1> mongo456a: suppose you've used "smbp***wd"?
<0> hmm
<2> i have an MSI AMD64 nforce4 board, and i can only get as fast as USB1.1
<0> a modeline fixed it for one monitor, i'll try it on the one it's ment to use now
<7> nforce drivers are troublesome in linux in general
<8> ]BreliC[, check the BIOS?\
<2> i saw that there are drivers on the nvidia site, but I read elsewhere that it breaks alsa
<9> what packages do i need to be able to play wmv files?
<6> Ljl: didn't know i had to...never had to on other distros
<10> Does anyone know a way to install Solaris 10 in the same disk with a Linux partition?
<2> dancingmonkey, it works fine in windows
<7> nvidia doesn't like to document their hardware
<7> and afaik their linux drivers are binary only
<2> hmm
<5> brelic, sure your device can more than 1.1 ?
<1> mongo456a: really? as far as i know, smbp***wd is always needed unless you do some weird configuration to make samba "sync" with the system p***words
<2> oskude, yes
<1> mongo456a: though i've only used debian and ubuntu really
<11> hey, i downloaded a program off of bittorrent, but have no idea how to install/unpack/burn....it has 15 zip files...install notes just say to unpack and install....it says to use keymaker which i have no idea what it is.
<5> brelic then i would read if the driver can more than 1.1 (but dunno where)
<6> Ljl: other distros must sync cuz i haven't had to...got a doc explaining smbp***wd?
<5> !samba
<12> somebody said samba was https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SettingUpSamba or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently
<2> oskude, well, as i said, there *is* a driver, but i've read on forums that it breaks alsa
<13> majd: please take your warez questions elsewhere.
<6> ubotu: thanks
<12> mongo456a: sure thing
<2> i was just wondering if anyone here had experience with it
<14> Anyone built the GAIM beta 2?
<15> so, if i load the module for my pci soundcard, will it automagically create is in /dev/snd1 the next time i boot?
<1> mongo456a: well, as far as i remember you should just "smbp***wd <username>", and set a p***word
<11> trappist, :(
<10> I have a Radeon 9200 which is fully supported
<16> hehe is that cwillu guy here? :D
<5> brelic, sry cant help :(
<10> What I haven't tried with my Dell 600m is the IrDA and modem, everything else is great
<17> Hello all !
<15> hi
<18> hi
<9> what packages do i need to be able to play wmv files?
<5> !wmv
<12> I heard restricted is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats Most of the formats listed here can be replaced by !FreeFormats
<19> gdesklets to not be on top ? Thx
<16> !avi
<12> I heard avi is Video for Windows. For more info http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
<16> lol
<16> aha
<16> so its got many formats
<9> oskude, cppnewbie, cheers
<16> hehe its not like i did anything
<16> had to find how avis playback lol
<0> it's attempting 1280x768 but the refresh rate is wrong, my monitor only handles 60hz, and it saying out of range :|
<1> Ratty_: that's certainly fixed with the right modeline. the problem is finding the right modeline.
<20> startkeylogger
<1> Ratty_: do give videogen a try, if you have your monitor's user guide handy ('cause it will need to know max/min sync rates, and that kind of stuff)
<20> :(
<0> my modeline is: Modeline "1280x768_60.00" 80.14 1280 1344 1480 1680 768 769 772 795 -HSync +Vsync
<21> Is there a package available in Ubuntu for setting a different wallpaper/background for each workspace?
<1> Ratty_: that doesn't really tell me anything, first because i'm far from a modeline guru, and second because the correct modeline really depends on your monitor
<0> hmm
<0> i just used a command line tool that asked for res and refresh rate
<22> Hello all
<0> i don't have a clue what the numbers mean
<1> Ratty_: that tool is probably making wrong ***umptions on your monitor's parameters then
<0> yeah
<1> Ratty_: me neither, honestly.
<0> i'll see if it has more options
<18> Ratty_, you can try CTRL-ALT-F1 to get to the console, and do sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
<22> Is there anyone who can help me with an issue I'm having with an intel 2200bg mini-pci card?
<23> is anyone using this new sys info plugin for xchat in dapper?
<1> Ratty_: see that, or try videogen, which definitely asks for monitor parameters. of course, you do have to know them
<0> polpak: yes and that would send me back to the start
<18> ubotu tell MalFal about anyone
<0> i do know them
<15> aplay -l, shows both the inte intergrated sound and the aureal pci card
<24> Can you switch your default audio card (if you have two) while booted?
<22> Thanks polpak, I now know. lol
<25> anyone use screen as their default shell? what arguments do you p*** to it?
<26> How do I play DivX and XviD movies in Ubuntu?
<18> MalFal, so what is the problem you're having?
<24> tdn: install vlc
<26> Do I need some Win32 codecs?
<0> hooray for apt-get
<26> Spec, apt-get install vlc?
<22> I have a system with an intel 2200bg mini-pci card that I can't seem to connect to my network for the life of me.
<24> should be
<1> !tell tdn about restrictedformats
<24> vlc is the best media player available, (in my opinion)
<15> hmmm lsmod shows the au88xx module loaded
<22> It sees the WLAN essid, but seems to refuse to connect
<24> ddonky: what's your problem?
<24> mplayer's alright :)
<21> Is there a package available in Ubuntu for setting a different wallpaper/background for each workspace?
<24> kde supports it, not sure what you'd use in gnome
<24> Krillancello: ^^
<15> Spec, i'm trying to get my integrated sound for voip only, and my pci card for everything else
<24> ah
<21> Spec: I've used wallpapoz before, but I wanted to see if it (or an alternative) was readily available before getting it.
<27> guys, i am curious about the codnames of ubuntu... anyone know why ubuntu releases have clever names?
<27> like dapper drake, breezy badger...
<15> i think i'm going to open 'er up and check the cabling
<21> Because *nix geeks are clever?
<5> tavancini, allmost all linux distros have "names"
<0> there's gnome-vlc if your're so inclined
<24> ddonky: you've looked at the .asoundrc documentation?
<15> Spec, no. Where is it?
<27> but for example... debian releases is based on the toy story movie...
<28> Is lm-sensors 2.10.0 going to be included in dapper? This would really be appreciated..
<1> Ratty_: that's a dummy package that just installs the now standard wxVLC
<5> tavancini, ah you mean the origin of the names in ubuntu ?
<1> Ratty_: same for KVLC (***uming it still exists even as a dummy package)
<27> yeah!
<24> ddonky: http://alsa.opensrc.org/MultipleCards
<26> Then how do I play wmv/wma files and streams from the internet like this one: http://www.dr.dk/Forms/Published/PlaylistGen.aspx?qid=161390
<5> tavancini, would like to know too :)
<24> ddonky: http://alsa.opensrc.org/ <-- lots of information
<27> hahahah
<5> !ubuntu_name
<12> I haven't a clue, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, oskude
<5> :)
<15> Spec - thanks!
<29> So is there any way to get amsn 0.95 on ubuntu?
<24> crossover office?
<30> Is it possible to update from 5.04 to 5.10 ubuntu just from console?
<29> because I used to have it, but then it got messed up, and I tryied to re-install it and now it doesn't work or something :(
<31> hypnotic: yes
<0> hypnotic: editing the sources.list file and just update as normal
<1> !tell hypnotic about breezy
<29> brb, will read any pms or name highlights
<18> !amsn
<12> well, amsn is at http://amsn.sourceforge.net
<24> oh, nevermind
<21> gnome-app-install lists aMSN...
<18> !info amsn
<12> amsn: (An MSN messenger written in tcl), section universe/x11, is optional. Version: 0.94-1 (breezy), Packaged size: 1946 kB, Installed size: 6976 kB
<1> there is aMSN 0.94 in the standard breezy reps. 0.95 is only on the official site - but there is a specific ubuntu version
<18> So if you want .95 you'll need to get the source or a deb from them
<32> hello, I have questions about migrating to a new hard drive... Firstly, the new one is SATA, and I wonder how I should jumper my optical drive (as master yes?) Secondly, I would prefer to directly copy partition scheme & contents of current drive to new drive as opposed to reinstalling Ubuntu and copying personal files...
Return to
