Comments:
<0> Can anyone tell me why even though I have a user in a group, and that group has ownership of a dir, and appears to have r/w perms, that I can't write in the dir?
<1> troy_s: I did, but I am still not totally sure the problm is the router
<2> danial: but only the L
<2> danial: i am darn certain at this point.
<3> Is there a way to show fulscreen video in gxine?
<2> danial: if you are dhcp via your router, and a linux box is having issues -- its the router not playing by the rules.
<1> troy_s I have heard of thos, but not going to go out and buy a new router unless I HAVE to
<2> danial: try the firmware... that's the best i can suggest.
<2> danial: and if you brick it, send hatemail to belkin
<1> troy_s: I can try, but I don't want to have to rma another
<4> Geoffrey2: well, the alternative is to try and interpret the "prefs.js" file yourself ;-)
<5> cam just did an apt-get " [2 libenchant1 17376/49.4kB 35%] [1 abiword-common 23168/1612kB 1%]" my defaults do indeed dl more than one at a time.
<2> danial: i would be leery too, but i can't see any other way danial. testing a router with xp or apple isn't really 'testing'
<6> hi guys - i'm trying to get a Microtouch USB Touchscreen up and running with Dapper - I have it acknowledging "clicks" on the screen but it seems to need to be synchronized...does anyone have any pointers on where I can look?
<7> who wants to help me
<2> oscar: kind of vague don't you think?
<5> cam hoary to dapper they may have messed that up too...
<7> learn install
<8> out of curiosity, installing ubuntu on a tower, it asked me what my preferred username etc is, is there a standard root/p***word account that I can change the p*** to?
<7> mplayer
<1> troy_s: Heh, I have a live copy of ubuntu, my other machines are running the linksys wifi cards that linux hates
<7> i donwloaded
<2> ubotu, tell farnaby about root
<7> but i see lot of files the what to do...
<2> danial: not ALL linksys stuff is good... just that wrt54gL unit
<5> !mplayer
<9> hmm... mplayer is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MplayerInstallHowto For compiling, see: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=31061
<3> anyone^
<10> Does anyone know what the apache install does with mod_security.conf ... ?
<11> i did apt-cache search for games and there a so many! are there a few that are really good? i don't want to install and check them all... :)
<2> danial: personally i don't really like linksys, but that -L router is absolutely amazing... i have purchased at least 10
<1> Well, I am going to try a firmware upgrade, this will probably disconnect me
<12> Oscar_: delete those, open a terminal and type in sudo aptitude install mplayer OR open Synaptic and install mplayer
<2> danal: good luck... follow those instructions exactly and make sure you ahve the right firmware!
<8> thanks troy
<7> thanks
<1> troy_s: I have heard it can be upgraded with non-standard firmware to do some great things
<13> Could anyone possibly answer my question?
<2> Farnaby: np
<2> danial: it rocks.
<2> danial: www.openwrt.org
<14> hey guys, anybody on setting the cpufreq on my notebook to full speed when its plugged in, but dynamic when its battery?
<8> here is another question, will there be more screen resolutions available upon the full install? Like I said, thats my only prob, and no xorg/conf didn't work on the live cd
<2> danial: i can't say enough good things about it. it is basically a 40 dollar computer running linux.
<14> 'cause running at 75% when i'm plugged seems silly
<2> farnaby: xorg.conf will fix it... kind of depends on detection
<15> intelikey, what kind of settings do you have in /etc/apt/ ?
<2> danial: and being linux, it follows standards and protocols.
<1> troy_s: $40 for an 11g router?
<5> gavagai if you did want to install and try them all apt-get install `apt-cache search game | cut -d' ' -f1` should make it easy :)
<8> hrm, seems like Imight be downloading some rpms at work tomorrow, wonder if my boss will be there
<1> troy_s: That aint a bad price anyways
<2> danial: they go on sale for about 50 CDN on a regular basis at www.ncix.com
<5> cam i haven't touched them from the install.....
<16> hello
<2> danial: make sure you look for the WRT54G-L -- NOT!!!!! the wrt54g
<12> FR500: hi
<16> I think i discovered a bug, how do i report?
<2> !bug
<9> bugs are reported to https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bugs
<8> now I just have to remember wtf my graphics card is on this machine
<6> does anyone know what device a USB touchscreen would be mapped to in /dev/?
<2> farnaby: lspci. or flip the driver to vesa and start there.
<16> ty
<2> pacino: try the wiki?
<8> troy, you are much better sober then I am drunk ;)
<16> can anyone try to reproduce it for me?
<2> fr500: do your due diligence and make sure it isn't already reported!
<17> heh
<1> troy_s: Just to test, I took the belkin IP out of my DNS list, didn't solve the problem(Which it keeps a cache DNS which it probably isn't accessing, causing the problem)
<6> troy_s: thanks mate!
<18> ubotu, firefox 1.5
<9> somebody said firefox 1.5 was https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion
<1> troy_s: I really didn't want that upgrade, but ohwell
<2> danial: if you are on a router,
<2> danial: and using dhcp, its the router's fault. try a static ip
<2> danial: and you won't have those dhcp waiting issues any more :)
<1> locke: Locke? Enders Game reference
<1> troy_s: Tried a static, still the same issue
<2> danial: then it isn't dhcp possibly?
<2> danial: something else?
<5> cam all my stuff in /etc/apt have a look for your self
<19> how do you rename a file in ubuntu? :|
<15> intelikey, tx
<2> panda-: mv
<1> troy_s: No, it is DHCP. But I put it to static, and DNS problems percested
<17> danial, shrewd :)
<17> i am not a governmentalist by any means
<17> peter hehe
<2> danial: set your dns server / default gateway to the router's ip.
<0> I think either ubuntu is broken, or I'm missing something incredibly simple
<6> troy_s: no joy on the wiki for "touchscreen" or "microtouch" - it's weird - it's *nearly* works...the pointer moves, just not in the right directions...
<12> Panda-: type "man mv" in a terminal
<8> demonsthes says go to #ubuntu-offtopic ;)
<1> troy_s:It was
<2> pacino: text search?
<17> rather peter wiggin than valentine
<8> 53% of full install
<17> Farnaby, already there heh
<2> danial: man... i'm lost then. i really think it is that router, but i might very well be wrong.
<19> ooh
<19> thanks Troglodyt
<19> oops troy_s
<12> Panda-: or right click on the item, select "Properties" and edit the "Name" field
<2> troglodyte -- eek.
<6> troy_s: doh - I'm an idiot! thanks!
<1> troy_s: I got an update and replaced my router at the same time, which this problem started after
<12> Panda-: or press F2 when the item is selected
<19> charlesJacobs; can't in bash
<2> danial: count on the latter
<2> danial: linux isn't used on webservers for nothing.
<1> troy_s: At first, I thought it was because I was using this machine in XP as a router while I RMA'd my router
<12> Panda-: true enough. just giving some GUI alternatives
<5> cave dweller in here ?
<10> Can sudo ask you for a plaintext p***word on a newline ... ? ... I thought the p***word was supposed to be suppressed on the screen ?
<2> danial: if i bet money on things behaving, i bet on open source. not proprietary closed source things. just where i bet, that's all.
<2> babo: it shoudl be supressed.
<20> cuuuuuuuurses... i got no idea how to get my sizzound to work.
<2> babo: unless someone has written a bad skript.
<10> troy_s: hmm ...
<2> mo0se: hang in there.
<1> troy_S: Why do you think I have put up all this effort to get linux running completely on my machine, dispite coming with XP
<8> 60%
<20> heh. i hope they get it to work in the next version.
<10> troy_s: it's just a default install ... I'm still setting things up ...
<15> intelikey, well it's pretty weird, since the conf files are the same
<2> danial: keep trying. i would say its the router. can't test unless you try :)
<8> looking forward to this
<8> smoke reak time I guess
<2> babo: if it echoes to the screen, it isn't responding correctly.
<21> with the right hardware linux can be a blessing
<19> im so lost in all this linux/ubuntu stuff... what should I read to get a good start?
<2> babo: most of the time it shoudl be masked in some form. shouldnt just show up.
<1> troy_s: When I did the math, I came out with a potential netgain of $10 getting this thing setup on linux over buying windows
<5> cam i've told you all i know about it.
<2> panda-: start at the absolute beginner talk on teh forums.
<12> Panda-: you could try wikipedia
<2> panda-: if you really want to learn about operating systems, "how linux works" from no starch press is _very_ good.
<18> ubotu, upgrade firefox 1.5
<9> tripppy: Bugger all, I dunno. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
<13> Ok please someone, Towards the end of the install i got an error about not finding a bootstrap or something, then when finished it hadnt installed a bootloader
<2> panda-: but there are 10000000 howtos out there... just start pouring over google.
<13> It just booted into OS X when i restarted
<5> !tell Panda- about cli
<13> (Trying to dual boot with os x, PPC)
<2> kieran: have you checked the forums and the wiki?
<13> Its all installed correctly etc.
<13> I searched the forums yes,
<2> kieran: open firmware is stinky as hell last time i toyed with it.
<12> kieran_: if you know what you're doing you could try the super GRUB disk
