Comments:

<0> frank_b: Nominal difference you need linux-image-686 to go with the restricted modules 686
<1> hi..
<2> wastrel: espresso is the old name of the liveCD installer program, now it's called... um... ubiquity
<3> where can i blacklist a module to not load?? i don't want to load tulip because i have a conflict with my network adapter
<4> I just installed ubuntu but I can't figure out my root p***word, the install never prompted me for one. How do I figure out what it is?
<5> I am going to upgrade from breezy->dapper without X. i see that i have to change my sources file. do i have to find exact mirrors on the web, or do I just replace every instance of 'breezy' with 'dapper' in my sources file?
<5> cantthinkofaname, you use sudo
<6> so, when using mdadm to create a 4 disc raid5 array, should i first create a partition on every disk myself?
<7> does anyone have any good info on optimizing the kernel?
<8> Anyway without using Ubiquity (lol)?
<2> !tell cantthinkofaname about root
<5> cantthinkofaname, the user you created can use sudo. you can get a root prompt if you really want it with 'sudo bash'
<9> gavagai: replace the names, should work
<10> dooglus: that is a standard version info file afair
<4> gavagai, wouldn't sudo promt me for a p***word? I already tried su
<2> zxc333: the alternate CD



<5> cantthinkofaname, your own p***word is what it wants
<5> cantthinkofaname, you are in the sudo file and are authorized
<11> h3sp4wn, yes, when I try to install the 686 package it says I need to install that image. but should I do that? is it necessary? or better if I do it?
<12> macche: I *think* you can list the modules you want to disable in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.
<2> cantthinkofaname: sudo prompts you for a p***word, and you enter your user p***word. read what ubotu sent you, it explains it all.
<10> it will work
<0> frank_b: It may give you a slight performance increase
<4> gavagai, so I'm never allowed to know the root p***owrd?
<13> cantthinkofaname, there isn't one.
<2> cantthinkofaname: there is NO root p***word
<14> cantthinkofaname: there's no root user by default
<5> there is no root
<4> oh i see
<5> there is sudo
<15> DocTrax: OK. but I would imagine the command is more likely to work in future than relying on the file format to stay the same.
<3> rob_p: thank you, now i try!!
<4> thanks everyone
<12> macche: Be sure to report back so I will know for sure! :-)
<8> Flannel: Is that just the old installer?
<10> ohh
<11> h3sp4wn, ok. thank you for your help. any suspicion why did ubuntu installed me the 386 instead? (although my computer is a p4)
<2> zxc333: yeah, its the textmode installer
<3> okk
<16> join #ubuntu-pl
<17> Need more help here. Ubuntu on PPC, Mac Mini, 19" Gateway VX900 monitor, only goes to 1024x768, 800x600, or 640x480 @ 60Hz. Help?
<2> frank_b: 386 is default install, you have to manually install additional/more specific kernels
<0> frank_b: Does it by default as its the most compatible
<10> the i will maybe get bug reports
<18> Hi guys
<18> I'm having a hard time with xgl
<18> Anyone experienced here ??
<1> Hi, I am a total newb with linux. I have ubuntu 5.10 installed. Trying to get connected to my IP with a westell dual connect modem via ethernet card. DOHC was not able to install when I installed ubuntu. Can anyone please help?
<14> mrmist: #ubuntu-xgl
<8> In Ubiquity (The Graphical Installer) I heard when you select stuff to be reformatted (past the gparted screen) where you ***ign the swap etc...it reformats to ext2...does this include reformatting the Swap to ext2?
<19> i'm experienced, but i don't know anythign about xgl
<18> I know... no one's awake in there
<18> hmm
<19> in fact... i'd bet there's an inverse relationship
<6> anyone around who can help me with mdadm?
<19> what's DOHC?
<20> hi all was just reading the linux format review of ubuntu 6.10 and they say F12 show all you apps buy F12 not working on my install :(
<21> Anyone know how to mount a freshly formated reiserFS HDD to where a non root user can copy/edit files freely??
<17> anyone?
<2> zxc333: swap isn't ext2 filesystem, it's a swap.
<11> h3sp4wn, Flannel, oh, ok. got it. so it was a generic intelx86 installation. I thought ubuntu detected the processor or something. thank you very much for your help. :)
<19> !mount
<22> 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
<2> frank_b: nope, that'd just be one more thing that could possibly go wrong later for random changes. You can install the 686 processor easily enough though, via apt
<17> command to reconfigure xserver-xorg?
<8> Flannel: Nevermind, I read about a semi-bug that reformats everything to ext2 after gparted works but it doesn't effect swap
<23> What file needs to be edited so I can persist terminal settings like 'xset -b' across sessions?
<8> Flannel: Second Ubiquity attempt lucky hopefully >>;
<11> Flannel, yes. got it. thank you very much for your help. :)
<20> does F12 work for anyone else ??
<19> angryfix: you can add that to .bashrc
<24> zim, sure does
<1> join #emc
<23> wastrel: thanks. I wrongly edited bash_profile earlier. Thanks!
<20> did you have to do anything
<19> yo
<21> Anyone know how to mount a freshly formated reiserFS HDD to where a non root user can copy/edit files freely?



<16> hello, anyone use eagle drivers on dapper ?
<19> zim mine does nothing
<19> is this kde or gnome thing?
<20> it is should show all your open windows bit like OSX
<11> Flannel, I better remove the 386 package after I install the 686 one, right?
<8> zeewolf: That the Modem thing?
<20> gnome
<8> zeewolf: Eagleusb?
<19> mebby an xgl thingy f12 does nothing in my gnome
<16> zxc333: yeah
<7> Hello, i installed kde over gnome, just to try it, and i don't like it. When i go to uninstall it with synaptic it say's it's only going to free up a few KB of space when i know the total install was something like 500mb
<7> any ideas?
<25> How do I apply a .diff file? Someone?
<26> sladen: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/hotkey-setup/+bug/49061
<27> how do I set the faces for users on the login screen?
<19> luc1fersflowers: you're uninstalling kubuntu-desktop?
<28> !ttf
<22> I give up. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, chmod775
<7> wastrel: trying
<2> frank_b: nah, no real reason to. don't remove it until 686 is running smooth, so you can fall back if necessary. but, having it on there won't hurt anything (except taking up a little bit of HD space)
<20> DBO are u using kde or gnome
<28> !fonts
<22> well, fonts is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FontInstallHowto
<29> I want to recompile my kernel and need some help. First, where can I get the source for the default dapper kernels? (2.6.15-23 is what I'm running at the moment)
<30> eugman, system > preferrences > logon photo
<8> zeewolf: Not Dapper, just installing Dapper now but gonna have to install the Eagle drivers once it's finished...did it on hoary
<19> luc1fersflowers: heh. kubuntu-desktop is a metapackage, it's just a wrapper for kde. it doesn't install all the other kde packages.
<25> Someone please? Applying a .diff file!
<19> luc1fersflowers: i dunno how to cleanly uninstall all that other junk :]
<31> meegaha: sudo apt-get isntall linux-source-2.6.15
<32> Salve a tutti
<7> wastrel: how'd they get installed..... :(
<26> !it
<22> Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!
<31> meegaha: or sudo apt-get isntall linux-source-2.6.15-23
<7> wastrel: looks like i'm going to have to do a fresh install of dapper
<33> hello everyone
<16> zxc333: i'm using it now on dapper, but have a "little" problem with synchro
<11> Flannel, oh, ok. I thought it might conflict with the new one. thank you.
<7> hellow miranda82
<19> luc1fersflowers: they're all dependencies for kubuntu-desktop, so the package manager pulls them all in, but kubuntu-desktop itself is basically just a list
<34> ifconfig: wich is my pc's ip address inet addr:192.168.1.100 or Bcast:192.168.1.255 ?
<35> Stormx2, there are a number of optins. look at the man page for patch (usually something lie patch -p0 < patch.file
<7> wastrel: aaahhh, i see i see
<26> Dreamglider: the former, ***uming it's correct
<33> i have a problem trying to delay the audio in a video file, i tried with vlc, and mplayer, both return to zero value qhen i check if it is correct
<21> Dramglider, most likely 192.168.1.100
<34> tks
<36> How do I hcange the bootup splash screen? I have one to put in its place
<8> zeewolf: What do you mean by Synchro?
<21> Dramglider, but it depends on your routers config.
<19> luc1fersflowers: find one of the major kde packages and remove that, the dependencies will go away with it.
<7> wastrel: i'll try that thanks
<21> Dramglider, which can be accessed if you type in 192.168.1.1 into the address bar of your internet browser
<37> can somebody please help me with sudo
<21> number41 Whats the problem
<11> bye h3sp4wn and Flannel . thanks once again. :)
<37> i cant for the life of me get it to accept my "user" p***word

<0> frank_b: no probs
<29> gr33npho3nix: thanks!
<21> number41, is it on the numberpad?
<16> zxc333: when you fire eaglectrl -d, my modem doesn't synchronize, i have to rmmod and modprobe it a couple times, and then it works
<37> Constrabus no it is not
<33> i have a problem trying to delay the audio in a video file, i tried with vlc, and mplayer, both return to zero value qhen i check if it is correct

<27> That is wierd, there is no logon photo in preferences
<38> i have an nvidia card with the drivers installed, can anyone tell me how i can enable twinview, or whatever i need to get my second monitor working?
<16> zxc333: sagem fast 800 i think
