Comments:

<0> the AC97 on my last computer (before this) had an onboard AC97 that had no problems on the live cd (i never installed ubuntu on it)
<1> Some_Person: newer = 2 yrs till now
<2> ubotu: tell igge about install
<3> ISA has problems so it has to be manually loaded (makes it a little tricky)
<4> danfg: look at an existing launcher e.g. right-click properties on firefox's icon
<5> Alfred_: cool, and yeah, I noticed TextEdit does that, but I wouldn't use TextEdit to edit bash scripts anyway :)
<0> wildman: what if i put a 10 year old PCI soundcard in the machine?
<6> webdesigner: alrite.. will have a look there..
<7> !soundcard
<8> acidjedi: Wish I knew. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
<2> Bruc: I'm not sure
<1> Warbo: but you have to have a mobo with ISA slots 1st ;)
<9> why my cdrom can't read some of the DVD, which i can read on windows?
<3> Some_Person: I have an old soundcard right next to me. Have you got one of those 3D printers yet? :)
<0> no
<2> !install



<1> vinboy: you mean ur DVD-ROM drive?
<8> Installing Ubuntu? See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Installation Installing software on Ubuntu? See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/InstallingSoftware
<9> wildman: yup
<10> webdesigner : you are not sure about the availability of the videos streamings?
<3> wildman: Not too hard to find (mind you, the only ones I have don't work)
<0> my printer is 5 years old
<11> Warbo, RandolphCarter: huh... Well, I get youur point with simplicity, but instead of calling the MacOsX users idiots, I would direct that to the OSX developers :-)
<12> Some_Person, no clue, sorry
<5> Alfred_: lol, I hope I didn't, because I use it too :/
<7> Does anyone know how to install SB Live! drivers?
<12> Some_Person, i think the hsf* stuff is the sound driver modules
<3> Alfred_: I was trying to say that you need NO computer knowledge to use MacOSX
<1> Warbo: I don't think Some_Person will want to trash his new computer ;)
<2> Bruc: I saw it somewhere in an ad, but I'm not sure.
<13> !dvi
<14> hi everybody. I've just installed ubuntu on my laptop. failed to get the wireless card to work. it seems to be off. does anyone have a suggestion?
<8> nmsa: Syntax error in line 1. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
<0> fresch: no, thats my modem driver
<12> Some_Person, that would ahve been my second gues
<6> webdesigner: hm... that's just installing from a cd though... I upgraded through the update manager
<1> Some_Person: do you have a PCI audio card around?
<15> hello, all
<16> HI! ... why isn't xubuntu-desktop(xfce) starting when I select the xfce session at the login screen? ... The result is that I log into Ubuntu-dekstop each time...
<0> wildman: yes, but its old and crappy
<15> how do i remove a user from a group
<1> Some_Person: like an SB128?
<17> Hello amit.
<15> using cui
<0> wildman: its a 10 year old SB
<1> Some_Person: well... better than nothing, till you wait for support for your newer system ;)
<5> shawnl: you can edit /etc/group by hand if you want
<1> Some_Person: I'd also try Ubuntu 6.06 :)
<2> igge: I tried updating from the manager and it didn't work.
<10> webdesigner: what a pity
<12> wildman, that reminds me of a friend of mine that wanted one network card with two IPs. my first response was "install a second networkcard" =)
<0> wildman: can i install it without losing my AC97?
<11> Warbo, RandolphCarter : Well, if i'm not too far away, I guess that's Mr. Steve Jobs' point - making computing easy :) (btw, I didn't find your remark offensive)
<2> Bruc: I'm sorry.
<15> hi, all, how do i remove a user from a group? using commond line?
<14> hello iiiears
<2> igge: The best thing to do is to do a full install from the Dapper CD
<18> guys... what could be the problem here. when run Firefox or Places->Computer it doesn't start. on the taskbar it says Starting Firefox or Starting Computer then nothing happens.
<1> Some_Person: I guess so
<16> I've got Ubutnu Dapper Drake 6.06 ... I took an sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop ... but I can't enter the xfce session... It always log onto ubuntu-desktop ...
<6> webdesigner: ah alright...
<0> wildman: do u know how?
<5> Alfred_: Mr Steve Jobs likes to make it easy to use apple hardware and formats, true. (annoyed former iTunes store user)
<18> guys... what could be the problem here. when run Firefox or Places->Computer it doesn't start. on the taskbar it says Starting Firefox or Starting Computer then nothing happens.
<1> fresch: ethX can be aliased ;)
<19> amit, What kind of WLAN-card do you have?
<18> tmn, check Sessions
<3> gharz: Open a terminal and type "firefox" what does it say?
<1> fresch: like eth0:0, eth0:1, etc.
<2> igge: Make sure you backup all your data first
<1> fresch: but your solution was the same I would have given him ;)
<6> webdesigner: I would have tried that too if it wasn't for the fact that my CD is broken :( (hardware failure, not ubuntu's fault)
<11> RandolphCarter, Warbo : and yea RandolphCarter, doing that would be like shooting your self in the foot hehe :)
<12> wildman, heh, it's the one with less brain h***le ;)
<18> Warbo, Xlib: connectgion to "0.0" refused by server
<1> Some_Person: if you mean "did you try yourself?", no.
<18> Xlib: no protocol specified.



<5> gharz: is this from a sudo or another user?
<1> fresch: and more economic in the short and long run too ;)
<14> I have the Intel pro 2200 bg. it is a pretty standard centrino platform
<5> gharz: make sure you run 'xhost +' in a terminal yourself
<6> webdesigner: guess I have to get a new CD player
<3> RandolphCarter: Sudo would produce GNOME authentication warnings but that's all
<16> gharz: I've tried to change the session in the login screen
<2> igge: Can you get a new CD? You can download it or get it shipped to you for free
<15> hi, i just add my user to a "ftpuser" group
<11> RandolphCarter, Warbo: true, but I would prefer Apple monopoly instead of Microsft's ...'
<15> now i cannot sudo
<15> and i lost my sound
<18> RandolphCarter, just another user... not sudo
<5> Warbo: in that case, run xhost +
<2> igge: Oh, its you drive?
<5> gharz: ack, in that case, run 'xhost +' (as yourself)
<18> do i need to run 'xhost +'?
<18> ok
<3> Alfred_: They are both really the same, but Apple cannot get away with what Microsoft do because they are not powerful enough
<6> webdesigner: I mean... yeah.. the drive is broken...
<19> amit, it should work out of the box I think. Do you have a button combination to turn it on?
<19> amit, Fn + something
<18> RandolphCarter, same message
<6> webdesigner: hm could I write the live CD to a partition on my harddisk and boot from it you think?
<0> wildman: would i have to disable my perfect AC97?
<2> igge: go to http://www.tigerdirect.com and you can get a new drive for $15 - $20.
<17> amit - Did you try the ndiswrapper howto? ubotu has the link "!wifi" "!ndiswrapper" Did anyone else see your question?
<1> Some_Person: no
<1> Some_Person: wait :P
<2> igge: I'm not sure, I thought of that too
<11> RandolphCarter, Warbo: But if it were possible to run Ubuntu on my PowerBook, whitout the touchpad issues (inaqquarecy), I would replace Mac Os X glady with it. :)
<1> Some_Person: I do have two sound cards on my test machine ;) (And one is SB128 PCI - maybe the same u have there), but didn't try sound under Ubuntu on it yet
<18> RandolphCarter, same error message
<1> Some_Person: I can say that both sound cards are being recognized though
<2> ubuntu: Hello!
<1> Some_Person: so, I don't think you'll have to disable anything
<12> if i have a couple of identical computers and use netcat to clone partitions from one to all the others, do i have to do something else besides grub-install one the clones?
<1> Some_Person: one sc is onboard, the other is sb 128 pci
<5> gharz: hmm, if you just ran that as yourself (in a new terminal), that shouldn't happen. I guess the next thing - run 'echo $DISPLAY' in a new terminal (as yourself)
<20> has anyone else had problem with the new release just restarting on its on?
<0> wildman: do u have to plug the cable to the cd drive in the soundcard?
<3> Alfred_: MacOSX is not that bad as an OS, and it gives you some measure of compatibility so if I had a Mac I probably wouldn't REPLACE MacOSX. Although I would run Linux day-to-day.
<6> webdesigner: yeah I should probably get a new drive.. will probably take less time than figuring out how to get the live cd on to the harddisk
<5> gharz: if it's anything other than :0.0, make sure you run 'export DISPLAY=*correct display*' as the other user
<1> Some_Person: well... CDs have only 1 audio output, so u'll have to connect it to the 'right' sound card
<19> amit, Ndiswrapper would work, but your card is supposed to be supported out of the box. Does it see the card when you type: iwconfig in a terminal
<18> RandolphCarter, i got :0.0
<2> igge: Yah it would
<3> Alfred_: (mind you, I have only ever used MacOSX in a museum information point so what do I know? :))
<0> wildman: i'll just leave it on the AC97
<2> Does anybody know how to get a U3 Flash Drive to work in Ubuntu?
<5> gharz: :/ that's the only thing I could think of for this, running xhost + should fix any access problems
<21> one pb: i'm tryin to resize a windows ntfs partition to create a ext3 and linux-swap partition and I receiva an error. why?
<22> hi all, gots a newb question: I have the 5.10 server installed and I want to upgrade to dapper. How can I edit sources.list from the command line?
<23> once again, big thank you Jowi for helping me out. Highly appriciated!
<21> one pb: i'm tryin to resize a windows ntfs partition to create a ext3 and linux-swap partition and I receiva an error. why?
<24> I burnt some files to a CD but I can't copy them because I don't have access to read them >_<
<0> wildman: would ubuntu simply recognise it or would i have to do something to make it work?
<3> FuzZy: What kind of error?
<21> simply recognise
<21> cannot create new partition
<0> FuzZy: whats your problem?
<25> hi
<3> FuzZy: Is this in the Ubuntu installer, GParted, parted or what?
<11> Warbo, RandolphCarter: I don't know about that, Warbo, personally I'm pretty tired of OSX, which I never get of Ubuntu :) But it is a good OS, it sure is, it beats Windows that's for sure, but then again, everything does (whoops, being nosey here) :))
<25> how is de server for users?
<25> in portuguese?
<2> DOES ANYBODY KNOW HOW TO GET A U3 FLASH DRIVE TO WORK IN UBUNTU?
