<0> Linuturk: /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini ?
<1> __mikem: ok!
<2> Linuturk: most likely in /etc/php5/apache2/ but it depends which versions of php and apache you are using
<3> xxyyzz, apt-get remove <app>
<4> If one is a GUI based and the other is a CLI based, you should go with the gui based one though
<5> OneSeventeen: Depends on the number of drives in you system. It will always be hd#,# reguardless of drive type.
<6> rdz, thanks :-)
<0> xxyyzz: sudo apt-get remove
<7> Noob question> How do I get audio/video codecs for ubuntu? Do I need an all round AV program, or can I just integrate new codecs to make all AV files playable?
<8> Ng: There is only one drive, but it is a SATA...
<2> OneSeventeen: then it should still be hd0
<0> !tell luc1fersflowers about restricted
<9> xvidcap: error while loading shared libraries: libpng.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory where can I get it???
<8> Gilaun, Ng: cools, so probably (hd0,1) (since it is the second partition on the first drive)?
<10> Hello, What do I get so that xmms has some EQ settings like for rock,techo etc?
<6> I'm just curious why it's called "apt-get" if you're not actually getting anything... you're getting rid of something =/



<2> OneSeventeen: yep
<11> gharz: this will play them gtkwave
<12> Would having ubuntu taking up the first two partitions and windows the third work or does windows have to be on the primary partition?
<0> xxyyzz: don't ask such hard questions :p
<7> thank you KenSentMe
<6> heh
<2> xxyyzz: because apt-get is the tool that sits on top of dpkg for manipulating the state of packages. you can do dpkg -r packagename, but it won't be as helpful with respect to dependencies
<6> aaah, okay
<8> NG, Gilaun: Awsome, thanks guys
<6> Thanks :-)
<0> eugman: doesn't matter, as long as you isntall windows first
<13> xxyyzz, you can use aptitude or synaptic if the question keeps you up at night ;)
<6> Synaptic is hard...
<5> OneSeventeen: Glad you got it.
<14> anyone know of a program like newton for KDE?
<15> hi, i'm trying to install gaim2.0 and apt-get tells me i'm missing deps? where can i find those?
<11> gharz: you can try installing libxine-extracodecs and than see if totem will play it
<6> I like apt-get 'cause you just type in one line
<4> YOu should be able to put windows on any partition. GRub doesn't actually boot windows, but will call the windows boot loader, its called "chainloading"
<16> gnomefreak, ok
<16> thanks for the help.
<16> i'll check on this.
<11> gharz: yw
<12> KenSentMe, You are referring to windows attitude of "Wheeeee installing new bootloader, Wheee" I'm asumming?
<0> joe_: doesn't it tell you what dependencies it's missing?
<12> As to why it must be first
<15> KenSentMe, yeah, but i don't know where to get them
<4> Duelbooting is hard to do though, I would recomend you get a copy of vmware and practice a few times on a virtual machine so you don't screw things up
<11> gharz: if you type apt-cache search vcd | less it gives you all packages that will play or whatever with them 1 page at a time use page down to move to next page
<0> eugman: yes, if you install windows after ubuntu it's hard to boot ubuntu, windows bootloader is not great
<4> KenSentMe. As I said, typically, you want grub to load first. THen you want ubuntu to be in the next partition, then after that the windows boot loader and windows
<0> __mikem: you're right
<17> Should I install Kubuntu again then, and format it correctly ?
<4> GRub will either load ubuntu or "chainload" the windows bootloader
<17> Instead of resizing ?
<4> depending on what you want
<18> anyone know the command to upgrade to dapper
<11> ubotu tell skydragon38 -about upgrade
<0> joe_: maybe google for them, but as gaim2.0 is not in the repositories yet, so it's possible that there aren't any deb for the other packages yet
<12> Thanks kensentme, Mikem_, I understand that stuff and was just wondering if windows had any partiton location requirements. I'm planning on setting up a friends laptop to dual boot. The wierd think is she'd like Xp, ubuntu, and 98 if possible. (8 for some old obscure game apparently.
<19> skydragon: gksudo "update-manager" -d
<4> IF you want to duelboot its safest to install linux first
<20> is there a way to read file contents using bash scripting?
<21> __mikem I find it to easier to install Windows first
<22> ...
<22> __mikem, it's much safer to install windows first
<2> fooman: try googling for the bash scripting howto, it should cover stuff like that
<21> __mikem that way ubuntu finds Windows and sets up the boot menu automagically
<19> http://www.kaning.co.uk/blog to see how i did mine
<22> windows will destroy the MBR when you install it.
<0> __mikem: that's not true it think, ubuntu sets uop grub automaticly to boot windows also, windows doesn't do the same with ubuntu
<22> it will ignore ubuntu completely
<22> ubuntu will set dualboot up correctly
<4> LeaChim, the problem is, windows has this nasty tendency to take up the entire disk not allowing room for additional partitions
<15> editing window's boot.ini to boot linux is well documented and _very_ easy, i don't see what the problems are, but i'd still prefer grub in my MBR.
<20> Ng, i'm trying to script a service to run in the background to takedown potential hazards such as forkbombs
<22> __mikem, not when you install it manually
<0> __mikem: choose the right options at install
<0> __mikem: never had a problem with that
<22> you just have to choose your partition size :/
<23> __mikem: Not if you partition correctly.



<23> indeed.
<0> I guess __mikem gets the point now
<17> A GRUB question: I've got XP and Ubuntu now. If I reinstall Linux, will GRUB handle it ?? Or will it still try to connect to the "old" linux installation?
<23> The easiest way to do it is to install Windows first and make two partitions, then reformat the second partition when you install Linux.
<4> YEh I do
<24> can someone help me fix GRUB?
<23> mrmist: It should be fine.
<23> ubotu: tell metallitux about grub
<0> mrmist: if you install it over the old linux it wont
<4> Hold on, I have to ruscel me up some GRUB
<4> lol
<4> brb
<17> KenSentMe: I'm reformatting the Linux drive
<24> !GRUB
<25> http://wiki.ubuntu.com/GrubHowto or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows or troubleshooting grub: http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/grub.html#Troubleshooting
<0> mrmist: then there's no problem
<23> This is a question about dapper drake. If I have an 8 year old x86 box lying around, am I better to go with Breezy or Dapper?
<17> KenSentMe: I really just want to separate out the "/home" folder to a separate partition, but I can't do it in Linux it seems
<23> KenSentMe: yes you can.
<0> Concord_Dawn: dapper, but try the alternative iso for download
<23> err.
<23> mrmist: yes you can.
<4> Concord_Dawn you should use dapper, but if you are worriecd about speed, you can use Xubuntu, or ubuntu-lite
<26> Concord_Dawn: 8 years probably hoary or xubuntu
<17> Concord_Dawn: Know how ??
<23> yes.
<23> Just mount the second hdd at /home.
<23> !mount
<25> mount is probably the command to add partitions to your filesystem - for full instructions see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/InstallingANewHardDrive For mounting windows partitions, see !windowsdrives or http://tinyurl.com/bly9f
<23> ubotu knows everything.
<25> Concord_Dawn: NO SPEAKE ENLISH! Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
<0> mrmist: choose to manually partition your hd and then choose /home for the second partion for ubuntu
<0> Concord_Dawn: sorry xubuntu instead of alternative iso
<27> i am using xubuntu on my 2.4 1ghz machine and everytime i click on "open browser" link it wont open firefox
<23> bleh.
<23> Can I do a dist-upgrade from Breezy to Xubuntu?
<4> do a dpkg-reconfigure on firefox
<27> thanks
<4> don't mention it
<28> plop
<23> !upgrade
<25> Upgrading to Ubuntu 5.10 breezy -> http://wiki.ubuntu.com/BreezyUpgrade. Upgrading to Ubuntu 6.06 Dapper -> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperUpgrades . Note: gksudo "update-manager -d" always updates to the latest development verison: (eft when its open)
<4> dpkg-reconfigure can fix a lot of problems, its areally nice command
<23> dpkg ftw.
<0> hail dpkg
<19> anyone know how to upgrade firefox without waiting for update manager
<19> ?
<17> Concord_Dawn: er... I've only got to partitions on my current system. One with WinXP, and one with Linux. Now I want "/home" to have it's own partition, so I may reinstall linux without deleting the partition
<27> __mikem: no such luck with dpkg-reconfigure
<0> kaning: it's better to wait
<4> what EXACTLY did you type
<4> ?
<17> Concord_Dawn: I know how to mount :)
<27> dpkg-reconfigure firefox
<9> xvidcap: error while loading shared libraries: libpng.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory where can I get it???
<8> how can I mount my windows partition for read only, it claims to be HPFS/NTFS
<10> So anyone know how I can get presets for xmms EQ?
<29> does anyone here know if the xine package in ubuntu is supposed to include ogg vorbis support?
<4> what message did you get
<27> __mikem: none
<4> did you do it as root
<30> someone knows how to configure 5.1 audio under ubuntu?
<23> ciasa: have you tried searching for ogg or vorbis in the repos
<8> (following the ntfs mounting tips in the wiki don't work, it returns wrong fs type...)
<27> yes
<31> where is the default phpmyadmin on ubuntu lamp install? what address do I hit to see it?
<23> OneSeventeen: Wierd. Works for me.
<29> yeah, i have all the ogg and xine packages installed
<23> You have to type -t ntfs though
<0> tempered: it should be in localhost/phpmyadmin i think
<4> do me a favor, try opening firefox again
<10> The speakers on this laptop really ****.
<27> ok
<23> wow @ https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu <--- "beening."
