<1> Ubuntu's bugzilla ( http://bugzilla.ubuntu.com ) is now closed to new bugs. The new bugtracker is at https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bugs
<2> bimberi: some driver that i have here, seems to complain that i don't have the sources
<0> overflow-1: try 'sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)' then, if still no good try linux-tree
<2> as an aside, when i do apt-get install foo, where are the packages of foo downloaded to?
<2> bimberi: i already have the headers
<0> overflow-1: /var/cache/apt/archives/
<2> thanks
<0> overflow-1: ah, ok
<3> MexLUG: just accept the defaults where you don't know - the defaults are sensible
<2> rm /var/cache/apt/archives/ * can be safely done right?
<4> Thanks all who help me today.
<0> overflow-1: sudo apt-get clean
<5> anyone know if there is vim for dvorak?
<6> 64bit + wine - all I have to do is install the 32-bit libs and I'll be ok?
<7> libsmbclient reported an error, but did not specify what the problem is. This might indicate a severe problem with your network
<0> overflow-1: (does the same - but safer :) )
<7> I was just able to access my network yesterday, today it stops working, what the hell?
<7> 625 people and not one is talking?
<6> ahh, linux32 is just what I'm looking for
<0> Orunitia: or you've stumped them :)
<7> heh
<7> I can see the shared drives, but it gives me this error when I try to access them =\
<7> tried reinstalling libsmbclient, still nothing
<8> Draconicus: any luck?
<9> would any vim users be so kind as to help me troubleshoot bash settings for vim as default editor
<10> oliver_savage: sudo update-alternatives --config editor ?
<9> i guess I should say as command line editor? or is that it
<10> oliver_savage: what do you mean exactly?
<11> lincity-ng looks like a nice game, it actually looks better than its windows counterpart
<9> _jason i've been trying to set vim in bashrc with 'export EDITOR=vim'
<12> join #theora
<12> oops
<13> oliver_savage: i think you should try jason's suggestion
<10> oliver_savage: what commands would use that exactly? I've always done fine with the update-alternatives method
<14> hello
<14> i am searching for a live linux distribution specific for games. any idea?
<15> oliver_savage, try 'set -o vi'
<13> noname: actually, this is an ubuntu support channel. don't think there are distributions "specific for games" anyway
<9> yes 'set -o vi' works, but i want it to always be set will try _jason's suggestion
<8> noname: there's a gentoo-based one. Google for it.
<16> I'm having problems installing Firefox 1.5 on Kubuntu. Can anyone help me?
<10> oliver_savage: oh, you want vi readline settings, yeah then it's set -o vi in your .bashrc
<17> noname as in cedega games or as in you want a live cd for say freeciv?
<18> oliver_savage: do you want vim based editing commands, you mean?
<9> LOL i've read so many places that it is export EDITOR=vim thanks will try that, sorry didn't know it was called readline
<18> Hjkl are miles away on my keyboard, meh.
<16> Hmm. Okay, let's try again. Every HOW-TO I've read so far requires a previous version of Firefox to be installed before installing Firefox 1.5. Is there any HOW-TO that can handle a clean installation of Kubuntu -- that is one without a previous Firefox installation?
<9> Thank you very much that worked and was exactly what I wanted.
<13> ghb: why don't you just install the previous version of firefox first?
<16> LjL: I didn't find it in the package handler when I looked... Hmm. Maybe I should look again. Hold on.
<10> ubotu: tell ghb about ff1.5
<14> ethics, i'd prefer a collection of games in a livecd rather than one single big game for a distro.. however tall me about both eventually
<10> ghb: you don't need the old version install I believe
<19> hey, thanks, the laptop is now in GUI mode, not using the ati drivers but the vesa, but at least i can use it...thanks again
<13> ghb: it's there. try "apt-cache show firefox", and if it lists version 1.5, then edit your /etc/apt/sources.list, removed the reference to the 1.5 repository, run "sudo apt-get update", and then "sudo aptitude install firefox"
<16> LjL: Any reason why Firefox 1.5 isn't a package?
<13> ghb: but it is
<20> lots. I think there's a page dedicated to that
<21> crimsun: Unfortunately, the Dapper CD locks up on my laptop, as it does with most of my computers. It won't boot.
<16> LjL: What? Hmmm. This machine will be the end of me...
<13> or is it
<20> 1.5 isn't a package, LjL. 1.0.7 or whatever is.
<22> Does anyone here have any experience getting ndiswrappers to work on Ubuntu?
<8> Draconicus: what issue are you trying to resolve?
<16> Bah! I'm taking the long way around! At least I get it working that way. =)
<22> Does anyone here have any experience getting ndiswrappers to work on Ubuntu?
<13> ghb: oh well, then skip all of that, and just type "sudo aptitude install firefox"
<20> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=96595
<16> LjL: Just doing that. ;)
<20> one line summary: it's going to be a while before firefox 1.5 is officially backported
<13> ghb: not sure you really do need the previous version though, apparently that's only needed to avoid breaking stuff like Galeon and Epiphany, but that's Gnome programs anyway
<16> LjL: But how do I got about installing the 1.5 version if it's not a package? All I find is a TAR-file.
<23> im trying to get the md5 command line tool running.. except i cant find it :/
<16> LjL: I mean, what will happen with links and stuff?
<23> cant find it in synaptic with many repositories
<10> Nexinarus: md5sum
<13> ghb: well, there are instructions on the web page...
<13> ghb: what do you mean?
<23> ty jas
<20> ghb: if you follow the directions here it will work fine
<20> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion
<16> _antix: I suppose... I was just trying to do a clean installation instead of a weird "upgrade"
<16> LjL: Well, when just unpackaging the TAR-file, you don't get any quicky icons in the menu, for instance.
<10> ghb: it's not an upgrade, that page installs 1.5 side by side with 1.07
<10> ghb: and if you don't have 1.07 it just installs 1.5
<13> ghb: when just unpacking it, no, but when installing it, i guess you do. anyway, i don't think the "weird upgrade" thing will hurt
<13> or, as jason says
<16> LjL: *sigh* True...
<20> ghb: well until 1.5 is a package, you'll be best to use the unclean method ;)
<16> Okay, let's do this! Ubuntu ninja-style!!
<13> ghb: gee, you're compiling a program, it's not the end of the world ;)
<24> Hi
<16> LjL: For me it is. ^^
<13> ghb: well but luckly you have step-by-step instructions available, that doesn't happen every time
<24> Dude, I need a very little help... anyone can help me? :(
<10> ghb: mozilla provides binaries, you just untar and run ./firefox
<10> !helpme
<1> If you don't actually ask a question, we can not actually help you.
<20> you don't have to compile anything with the guide I posted.
<16> _jason: Hmm... But how do I add a link to the desktop when doing that?
<10> ghb: just make a symlink
<20> it's all in the guide, man
<25> hello
<26> so I followed the nvidia howto on the wiki, but glxinfo says extension GLX is missing, and Xorg.0.log says Failed to load GLX. what's wrong?
<20> symlinks, setting the default browser, etc...
<24> then... i've tried (as usually i've do) to upgrade my breezy to dapper... after the upgrade the network wont work :( I don't know why
<13> trappist making a question?
<24> my /etc/network/profiles looks right
<27> what partitioning scheme would cause ubuntu not to use the swap partition? would having the swap in a extended DOS partition be a reason?
<16> Crap. It's 2 AM already. And I got uni tomorrow! Gaaah!
<20> ablyss: or telling it you don't want one
<13> ghb: 2:09
<10> ghb: it's early then :)
<18> ghb: Is that supposed to be late? :P
<16> Razor-X: Grrrr. =)
<26> LjL: yeah I know. it's humiliating ;)
<27> _antix, I haven't explictly done so
<18> ghb: Come on, 2 AM is a very nice average time to go to sleep.
<20> well that would do the trick..
<23> heh
<3> ablyss: absolutely not
<13> trappist: nah, not really, if it's about binary drivers :)
<27> frogzoo, absolutely not.. okay what can I check to find out why
<23> depends when you wake up, Razor-X :P
<16> Razor-X: It would be, if I didn't have a lecture in the morning. It's Discrete Maths -- meaning LOTS of theorems and proves... ='(
<18> Nexinarus: 7 AM, en general.
<3> ablyss: 'sudo swapon -a' & then 'swapon -s'
<23> o_O evil
<27> thanks frogzoo
<18> ghb: Fun! (no sarcasm intended)
<16> Razor-X: If I only had the brains for it then, yes.
<18> 'Though indiscrete mathematics would be more fun ;).
<26> LjL: never had a problem with nvidia before. but the drivers from nvidia.com refuse to build, so I tried the ubuntu way, and here I am.
<27> uh oh
<27> sudo swapon -a
<27> swapon: /dev/hdb7: Invalid argument
<27> swapon: cannot stat /dev/hdc6: No such file or directory
<28> #311 m, 1 ; wa 7 5a 7#a7 1 am .
<18> trappist: I'm having similar problems.
<25> I have done some GTK themes. Please feel free of download them and try them, http://www.freewebs.com/vidalweb
<3> ablyss: 'sudo mkswap /dev/hdb7'
<29> frogzoo: isn't it worth checking there's no data there first?
<18> ZeroIRC: Please do not use uber-1337, or any other incarnation of 1337 speak in this channel.
<20> k-rad
<27> frogzoo, okay that worked. now do sudo swapon -a ?
<3> ablyss: yep
<30> clear
<28> Razor-X, sorry
<24> The system, after reboot, doesn't find my eth0 card... the module is loaded, /etc/network/interfaces are right, what can i do? I'm working on this problem for 2 hours :(
<27> sudo swapon -a
