<1> i just want to be able to choose windows or linux
<2> todd, Nah, I'm too fuzzy on the steps to do it, so I don't want to steer you in the wrong direction.
<1> jon_ u know anyone who might know how to do it
<3> anyone got ideas on changing settings for the sky2 network driver? edit the source myself, or wil there be settings somewhere?
<2> todd, Well, if no one else here on the channel doesn't respond\doesn't know. Google is your friend. So is the Ubuntu wiki\forums.
<4> todd: install windows first on first hd, put ubuntu cd in, install to second hd, make sure the bootloader is installed in the boot sector on first hd (windows always wants to be on c drive), and voila
<2> holycow, Ah, I didn't know it was that easy. ;)
<1> windows is on one hd and linux is on the other the linux one is set to master and windows to slave
<5> is there a nightly-build dvd available anywhere with the desktop source? i've been searching for it since someone mentioned about it in here...
<1> holycow whats a bootloader
<6> just thought i'd drop in and say it all worked, i feel so geeky.... 8*)
<7> intelikey: congrats! BTW, I haven't succeded in replicating your prob.
<1> can u walk me through it
<4> todd: well, if your asking that question, i recommend you have backups of all your data before you go any further :)
<6> todd it's what starts the computer loading the os.
<1> there fresh install theres no data on them anyway lol
<3> anyone know how to change settinfs for drivers? i know what i want to change, just not how to do it in ubuntu/linux...
<4> todd: google grub, that is one bootloader it should tell you enough about what it doe
<4> todd: alternatively, google 'what is a bootloader'
<4> :)
<2> g0urd, Doing a quick google search...just reading the .. summaries. "Nightly builds are on some select mirrors"
<6> fresh install != no data hehhe
<2> g0urd, Doesn't mention what mirrors though. =\
<1> im not going to have to delete anything am i
<1> to do this
<8> hi
<2> intelikey, But if he screws something up, it's easily replaceable :)
<8> how to descompact .rar file?
<9> !rar
<10> I guess rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FileCompression
<11> Grub is a selection which OS want to load in.. or a single HD linux only, the grub will boot linux up that's all.
<1> anyone?
<2> todd, What holycow said should work perfectly. When it sets up "Grub" and says "Is this all the OS's that are on your system?" and if Windows shows up as a boot option..you are in luck. Just hit yes..and off you go.
<1> jon where do i go to see if windows shows up
<2> It'll give a list.
<1> where is this list
<8> thankyou _jason
<2> It'll prompt you saying "Windows XP Home Edition blah blah" "Other OS here" blah blah. It'll be a prompt showing what OS's it has detected...
<1> my question is where and when will i see if it detecting windows
<4> at the begging, right after bios finished listing system devices
<2> It'll say in the prompt asking to continue the install of Grug.. "Windows XP home edition" or whatever you happen to have.
<1> it just booted right into linux
<1> nothing about windows
<12> IdleOne, you here tonight?
<2> After the install is complete...it'll say "Booting grub 1.5 hit esc to show menu"
<2> You might wanna do that :)
<13> my plugin directory has the symbolic link fo java but still java doesnt work
<2> hit esc to enter menu
<13> What to do?
<9> todd: press ESC when the computer is botting up to see the grub menu
<1> oo ok thanks jason
<12> DBO, how good r u with apache2?
<4> todd: well you either effed it up,or you didn't sdee the option to press del or something to see the options
<9> geniusvicks: how did you install java?
<4> todd: by default it loads into the first os in the gub boot list
<14> arrick, what are you looking to do?
<13> I chmod the downloaded file
<1> so just hit ESC after bios and it should come up right?
<12> I got a kid in #arrick needing to set permissions DBO
<13> and then typed ./<javafilename>
<15> has apple come out with an intel-based desktop yet?
<12> and cant remember
<14> arrick, ok, let me go read
<9> geniusvicks: for future reference, it's better to create a package or use one that is already made. What version of firefox are you using?
<1> oh DBO thanks for the help the other night with the xfce install
<14> todd, sure, got it working yes?
<11> No, after system logo disappeared and you'll see "Grub loading" and then till timer is counting down hit the ESC key
<1> yea work great
<14> todd, fantastic
<4> esc key, thats what it is
<16> !wma
<10> [restricted] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats Most of the formats listed there can be replaced by !FreeFormats
<1> ooo ok and it should show up correct?
<2> todd, that's the hope :)
<1> k brb let me try and see thanks alot guys
<13> 1.5
<13> _jason: it is 1.5
<9> geniusvicks: did you install it to /opt?
<16> is there a way to play wma's in ubuntu?
<13> yes
<4> mplayer
<4> or gxine and w32 codecs
<12> !aoache
<10> Not a clue. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, arrick
<12> !apache
<10> well, apache is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ApacheMySQLPHP
<16> mplayer hates me
<2> !w32codecs
<10> I heard 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
<9> geniusvicks: can you pastebin 'ls -l /opt/firefox/plugins' please? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
<2> majd ^^
<13> ok
<16> jon_, "Failed to open..."
<16> it has a horrible UI...wasn't very happy with it really
<17> hi, does anyone know a command to search through all on the system installed programmes (and their descriptions maybe) ; they are somewhere registered (synaptic?) so it shouldnt be a problem, right? :)
<16> Couldn't open/initialize audio device -> no sound
<2> majd, I agree, mplayer gui is ugly :) But what failed to open? Your WMA? That's why I directed you to the w32codecs.
<16> i get that a lot with mplayer
<11> try gxine, it's work everthing including commerical movie DVDs..
<16> jon_, oh...my bad...the no sound error i get with almost everything
<4> actually don't listen to PwcrLinux totally
<4> he is stretching the truth by a very fair bit
<2> majd, You need to enable alsa for your programs then...
<16> jon_, i believe i have win32codecs installed
<17> mplayer is ugly and not userfriendly but most diverse
<4> gxine is good, but it doesn't play everying, nothing on linux does
<16> jon_, way over my head :(
<4> yabba: you should try the one in dapper, purdy new gui
<16> i love vlc
<9> majd: do you use esd? (system > prefs > multimedia selector)
<4> its really nice
<13> _jason I posted it
<9> geniusvicks: url?
<13> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11741
<17> i dont have dapper, cant i do it in the bash? holycow
<17> <-5.10
<4> bash? no just wait for dapper to release, i'm just commenting on the gui comment you made
<4> :)
<16> and _jason i just switched to ALSA...still nothing
<18> i want to use freeBSD on my ubuntu ... should i instal qemu or bochs or xen?
<2> majd, Normally it's just poking around in the preferences of the programs...and switching it alsa.
<17> ahhh holycow okay :D
<9> majd: mplayer -ao alsa /path/to/mediafile
<2> majd, Well, the problem being, .. if you have any program with OSS running, it'll block the alsa.
<2> majd, A major offender being XMMS ;)
<16> amaroK ?
<13> _jason: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11741 is the url
<2> majd, rather, not OSS running, but the program *using* oss.
<9> geniusvicks: and after closing all instances of firefox and restarting, this page doesn't work: http://www.java.com/en/download/help/testvm.xml ?
<19> Hi, i REALLY need help! Is someone here?!
<13> restarting my PC or firefox?
<9> geniusvicks: just firefox
<19> yes, someone is hre
<13> ok
<3> how do i unload one module and load another?
<5> jon_: thnx for the info
<2> ubuntu, Ask away.
<19> ok sorry
<19> umm
<13> _jason no, It says click here to download plugin
<19> i just installed this
<2> g0urd, No problem. Did you find what you needed?
<20> Can you toggle the deafault behaviour or nautilus to copy instead of moving?
<19> and grub messed up wtih error 10
<19> i tried to reinstall it but no luck
<9> geniusvicks: ls /usr/java/jre1.5.0_06/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so, says the file exists?
<2> ubuntu, Well, what happened during your installation?
