<0> Nameeater_: unmount and remount
<1> cartesian1984, libgl1-mesa-dri is already installed
<2> nickgarvey: cartesion1984: bdo: hello again..thanks for the repartioning help, I now have a EXT3 on my second drive. If I wanted to mount this automagicaly as /home/extra what would be the required fstab entry ?
<3> !fstab
<4> the /etc/fstab file lists all drives and partitions but can be easily configured automatically with the diskmounter file found here http://www.ubuntulinux.nl/files/diskmounter See <partitions>.
<5> that is most wierd
<1> cartesian1984, notice anything?
<6> !tell Nameeater about mountwindows
<5> You do not have the permissions necessary to view the contents of "sda1". :/
<0> Nameeater_: you did umount and then mounted again?
<7> n00bie, are you on a 64-bit platform?
<1> cartesian1984, no 32-bit
<7> n00bie, ok, that makes it less complicated.
<6> Nameeater: ls -l /media/sda1 to see permissions on that dor
<6> *dir
<6> oops



<7> n00bie, theres another guide here. http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Breezy_Installation_Guide
<6> ls -ld /media/sda1
<5> _jason: thanks ;x
<7> n00bie, thats for breezy, but it should work anyway.
<8> hello
<9> ok ive gotten past the atuoconf.h error, now its telling me that gcc-3.4:command not found
<10> hello
<11> um
<9> ive got gcc 4.0 installed
<9> should that not work?
<11> i know i have nvidia installed
<11> but
<11> do i have 3d accel
<0> lestatslair: install gcc-3.4 if you need it
<10> lestatslair, did you install build-essential?
<11> because
<11> openttd is slow
<9> yes IdleOne i did
<11> really slow
<8> i have a t42 with an intel 2200BG card, and bootting live cd gives me an ipv6 address for some reason?
<0> !enter
<4> Please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and is annoying.
<12> !enter
<12> !+enter
<10> lestatslair, sudo apt-get install gcc-3.4
<4> Please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and is annoying.
<0> Madpilot: :)
<11> and when i say "reeally slow", i mean like a turtle
<9> ok ty.
<1> cartesian1984, I'm getting lots of this in the xorg log
<1> http://pastebin.com/648806
<13> My sound card works with hotplugs enabled at bootup, but hotplugs hangs 3 outta 4 times, i disabled hotplugs and now my soundcard doesnt work. Is there a simple way to fix it?
<11> i know i have nvidia installed but do ihave 3d accel because openttd is slow, really slpw, and when i say "reeally slow", i mean like a turtle
<1> cartesian1984, any ideas from that?
<13> do laptops even use soundcards? or is it onboard?
<14> kbrooks, you could try adding an option to xorg.conf to explicitly enable it, but I think it can cause lockups according to the guide
<7> n00bie, is it an PCI or AGP card?
<2> ubotu: thanks ... I have pasted the diskmounter script into a file and saved it. what is the chmod command to make it executable ?
<1> AGP
<4> no problem, River
<15> How do you play a .mov file off a site like say a trailer off the apple website.
<14> kbrooks, if you look over the nvidia guide by tseliot he shows options for turning it off, you could just do the reverse and turn it on
<11> mustard5: "direct rendering: Yes
<11> "
<0> kbrooks: try turning it off
<14> kbrooks, I thought it was something like renderaccel true, but I can't recall :)
<15> I have mplayer
<6> River: ubotu is a bot - he won't understand your question :)
<0> kbrooks: Option "RenderAccel" "false", is what I do
<15> but it wont open when I goto a mov file
<2> :-)
<13> does anybody know how i can discover what sort of chipset i have on my dell laptop 'soundcard' so i can load a module without using hotplug at boot up
<6> River: chmod +x filename to make it executable
<14> _jason, so thats turns on hardware acceleration? I would think it would turn it off :)
<16> anybody have any idea how to fix this error I get when installing Nvidia drivers?: "Could not compile gcc-version-check.c Please be sure you have your distributions libc development package installed and that 'cc' is a valid C compiler name"
<17> for the dell sound you can use sysinfo
<2> thoreauputic: many thanks (non bot)
<18> tomp, sorry I wasnt here when you got back, how are things going?
<0> mustard5: _jason > kbrooks: try turning it off :) and my glxinfo still says direct rendering: Yes, so I may be mincing the terminology
<17> it is a fairly new program
<6> River: some people think I'm a bot too *grin*



<1> cartesian1984, both agpgart and via_agp are loaded
<10> @botsnack thoreauputic
<10> :P
<19> Hello, I am trying to get a USB M*** Storage device to work on Ubuntu 5.10, so far I have had to load usb-storage.ko and sg.ko, and I have had very limited (none to be exact) results.
<16> DBO, I am having problems... hehe
<6> thanks IdleOne :)
<18> tomp, did you get x installed?
<16> I got X working
<16> yeah
<13> mram, have you used sysinfo?
<14> tomp, what does echo $CC give you?
<18> tomp, beautiful, ok, trying to install nvidia I gather
<20> how much processor power do i really need to run ubuntu without noticing any sluggishness, mostly i want to be able to download with bittorrent and watch movis at the same time, and still be able to check email and browse the web
<16> DBO, yup, trying to install my nvidia drivers now, since my 7600 gt isn't supported really by default. It works, but not at native resolution for my monitor :p
<17> TruckerMan: I tried to compile it but failed, i am currently looking into how to get it working on my system
<18> tomp "sudo apt-get install build-essential gcc gcc-3.4"
<19> Anyone have any idea of the aforemention USB storage problem?...............
<19> s/aforemention/aforementioned
<18> tomp, "uname -r" and paste the output here (it should be just one line, its ok)
<21> lorem: You need a fair bit to run Gnome without any sluggishness - my 3GHz HT P4 is not fast enough
<13> think if i just reenable hotplug i can run a command to find info on what sort of soundcard i have?
<15> to untar a file into a specific directory can you just goto that directory and run the tar command
<15> ?
<6> pahlooka: what? You're kidding right?
<7> n00bie, by default, ubuntu has the option "enable DMA only for disks" in the kernel. It would be advisible to recompile. http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=85064&highlight=dapper+recompile
<12> pahlooka, you must be seriously short on RAM to be having problems when your COU is that powerful
<10> TruckerMan, lspci
<16> DBO, OK, I will try those two things. Also, I am going to try installing irssi so I don't have to keep booting in to windows and back in to ubuntu to try stuff.. lol
<22> Is bcm43xx support built into dapper?
<21> Madpilot: I got a gig
<1> cartesian1984, I'm not sure I understand what DMA does?
<6> pahlooka: something is seriously wrong then
<18> tomp. dont go yet
<0> pvd2006: yes
<16> DBO, Ok
<20> pahlooka:how much rams do you have
<18> tomp, let me give you more instructions
<12> pahlooka, I've got a 2.0Ghz AMD CPU & 1Gb of RAM, and Gnome is faster than XP ever was
<16> ok
<21> thoreauputic: No, metacity is just a dog - what can I say? Anyway, I'm happy enough, but the OP asked "without sluggishness"
<23> how do I install Kde ?
<21> lorem: I got 1GB on that box
<18> tomp, once you run uname -r, you will get an output of some numbers, the last 3 are what you are interested in, probably going to be "386"
<6> pahlooka: either you are very picky, or something is wrong
<10> sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
<14> asddas, via CD or from online repositories?
<10> asddas, ^^^
<7> n00bie, DMA is direct memory access. It activates a different controller, as explained in detail here http://www.science.unitn.it/~fiorella/guidelinux/tlk/node87.html
<16> DBO, ok
<6> pahlooka: and metacity is not a dog
<23> mustard5, apt-get install kde ?
<12> lorem, what are your system stats? (RAM & CPU?)
<21> thoreauputic: I ***ume "without sluggishness" means no video tearing, blah blah
<20> i don't have a system yet
<1> cartesian1984, I've never enabled DMA for my old Nvidia card.
<18> tomp, using those numbers type the command "sudo apt-get install linux-image-386 linux-headers-386" (changing those 3 numbers as needed)
<13> IdleOne, it says Multimedia audio controller: Neomagic Corporation NM2200 <--is this my sound card? i thought neomagic was a driver
<14> asddas, IdleOne gave an answer for installing from online repositories above
<24> i just installed wu-ftpd and scanned thru some of the files... how do you get it running? can anyone point me to the right doc to read up on?
<2> thoreauputic: just reading through the diskmounter script, it seems to look for fat or ntfs to mount those... I'm just trying to mount mynew ext3 partition/drive I'd better google for standard mount doco and stop bothering everyone with these basics
<10> TruckerMan, looks like it yup
<6> pahlooka: redardless, metacity has nothing to do with it
<18> tomp, once you do that, boot back into windows and report back, ok?
<20> i'm tryingto figure our what to buy
<14> asddas, if you have the CD you can install from CD too and then update from online repos
<16> DBO, ok, thanks for the help. I will give it a shot
<6> *regardless
<18> tomp, sounds good
<12> lorem, anything reasonably modern will run Ubuntu just fine. More RAM is always good, though :)
<10> TruckerMan, neomagic driver prolly made by neomagic sorp.
<23> mustard5, dont got cd..
<7> n00bie, its not necessary, nVidia is magical like that. I'm not sure why. But nVidia generally doesn't require you to recompile, perhaps DMA code is packaged with the driver.
<10> corp*
<23> mustard5, does it work with synaptic?
