Comments:

<0> jrattner: add you second domain there
<1> gnomefreak: exactly thats what i think too
<2> Kwong: just download fluxbox then from the session manager choose fluxbox
<3> rdz: du --max-depth=2
<1> thanks anyway :)
<4> Hey, how do I change the default nick for irssi?
<1> br
<5> Some_Person: I'd have to look in 'man mount' for the options to do that
<1> b
<6> !mount
<7> from memory, mount is 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
<8> farous: is there anyway to remove completely gnome-desktop?
<9> !limits.conf
<7> Do they come in packets of five. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, fooman
<10> KenSentMe, alright give me a second ill give it a try
<2> Kwong: i do not remember the exact package name for it



<11> Kwong: remove glib2 and then reinstall ubuntu-standard
<12> Kwong: ubuntu-desktop
<5> Some_Person: also when I tried to mount my partitions from the LiveCD it sort of looked like the necessary drivers weren't there to do it as the Gnome disk manager thingey hadn't ID'd the filesystem types properly
<0> eugman: go to /home/eugman/.irssi/config and change your nick at the bottom
<8> gnomefreak: apt-get remove ubuntu-desktop?
<0> jrattner: oki
<13> hum
<13> whats apt
<14> eugmen: there's #irssi for that
<15> Gilaun, many thanks
<0> !tell Driverz about apt
<16> can someone help me get online (i'm on the livecd now)? when ubuntu starts loading and gets to 'configuring network interfaces' it says failed. i brought eth0 and lo up with 'ifconfig eth0 up' and 'ifconfig lo up' but it still doesn't work
<3> :-)
<12> Kwong: are you trying to use kde instead of gnoem? what are you attempting to do?
<2> Kwong: ubuntu-desktop is a meta package it is mainly used for update purposes
<13> ta
<11> Kwong: No. You need to remove *all* gnome and gtk apps. All depend on glib.
<8> gnomefreak: i want to remove the gnome desktop to replace by fluxbox, wanna free some resources
<11> Kwong: So, you remove glib and then reinstall ubuntu-standard, to restore a *server* install.
<17> whats a good program for finding wireless networks?
<12> Kwong: than remove --purge glib but iirc flux will bring back glib
<16> i've been slowly updating to dapper, and i think that's what's causing my problems
<10> KenSentMe, how do i restart postfix now to test it
<2> Kwong: but doing soo you will remove nautilus the file manager you will remve a lot of stuff you need. fluxbox is just a window manager not a desktop env
<11> Kwong: On top of that you can install wither kubuntu-destop, edubuntu-desktop or xubuntu-desktop, your choice.
<0> jrattner: sudo /etc/init.d/postfix restart
<18> gnomefreak, now i got another problem. the color is not showing the right one. the saturation/hue is bad.
<2> Kwong: have you considered xubuntu, xface
<16> anyone?
<8> farous: because i usually remote to my ubuntu box only
<8> farous: so i dont really need the gnome-desktop
<19> I hope I dont get banned for this but, I am trying to setup keybindings and this app I have no clue what to do with it: xbindkeys-1.7.2.ebuild
<20> why can't I pipe the output of ps to another command
<8> farous: i want something light
<20> I want to do ps -C less -o pid --no-heading -w | kill
<21> how can i check what software & on what port is listening?
<20> in a shell script as a way to kill a process by its command name
<2> Kwong: just remeber to pick up some light applications for other stuff you need like browsing and file managing
<20> in this case less is the name of the command I want to kill
<22> __mikem: killall commandname
<23> Is it possible to tell the livecd installer to install/setup grub into /dev/hda7 instead of /dev/hda?
<24> hello, I can't get the files burned to a disk
<16> can someone help me get online (i'm on the livecd now)? when ubuntu starts loading and gets to 'configuring network interfaces' it says failed. i brought eth0 and lo up with 'ifconfig eth0 up' and 'ifconfig lo up' but it still doesn't work
<19> did anyone get transparency to work with the scroll mouse wheel running the new Xgl compiz server?
<8> farous: i currently running some services on ubuntu, if i remove the glib, will it effect anything to those services?
<22> Kwong: glib, probably not. glibc yes.
<25> Kwong: if you try to remove glib you will be told about anythign that requires it
<8> Ng: oh alrite, that makes sense to me, thanx
<26> How Long Term is LTS?
<25> gmccreight: 3 years for the desktop profile, 5 for the server profile
<26> thanks!
<20> HEres a question, Ubuntu versions are named after creatures indiginous to south africa, what exactly is a dapper?
<27> what file do I edit or how do I set the ip address to not be dhcp?
<24> i connot burn the image to a cd properly, I have wasted 5 cds...
<22> __mikem: it's dapper drake
<20> tempered system>administration>networking
<25> __mikem: it's dapper drake. a drake is a type of duck, dapper is an adjective :)
<20> oh
<27> console only, what do I edit?
<20> why must you use the console



<4> Hey, is it possible to add the ssh server but make it so only one account is ssh accessable?
<25> tempered: /etc/network/interfaces
<20> unless you can't get into x
<22> tempered: /etc/network/interfaces
<27> thanks
<25> tempered: see "man interfaces" for documentation for the file format
<28> anyone know how to enable the file /etc/security/limits.conf
<11> __mikem: drake is either a male duck or a make dragon. Dapper means elegant as in: dressed-to-kill.
<29> Dressed to kill duck?
<22> eugman: sure... only give that user a valid shell
<11> make dragon -> male dragon
<16> can someone help me get online (i'm on the livecd now)? when ubuntu starts loading and gets to 'configuring network interfaces' it says failed. i brought eth0 and lo up with 'ifconfig eth0 up' and 'ifconfig lo up' but it still doesn't work
<22> Daemonic: be very afraid
<20> Cool. And this distro is definitely dressed to kill redhat
<25> eugman: you can put entries in /etc/ssh/sshd_config to only allow specific users or groups ssh access
<23> eugman: modify sshd_config and add this to it "AllowUsers <username>"
<25> eugman: I use "AllowGroups ssh" and then add users to the "ssh" group if they are allowed to ssh in :)
<25> eugman: or what mluser-work said :)
<30> -about nfs
<11> Daemonic: Exactly. All Ubuntu code names are puns that point to the release intention/condition. E.g., Hoary Hedhog. A hedhog is an ant-eater and that release was full of bugs.
<20> !nfs
<7> I guess nfs is see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NFSClientHowTo and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NFSServerHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS.
<23> Is it possible to tell the livecd installer to install/setup grub into /dev/hda7 instead of /dev/hda?
<30> !nfs
<28> tanath, do you get your ip address using dhcp or do you have to manually ***ign the ip address from your router?

<1> no luck :(
<16> how do i manually configure an interface (eth0)?
<30> Thanks __mikem

<16> a22, hrm, thanks
<30> !nfs
<7> methinks nfs is see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NFSClientHowTo and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NFSServerHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS.

<1> gnomefreak: right.. but when it does the http:// connecting does it wget or something else
