<0> _Terry: Regular lilo cannot use EFI (what Intel Macs use to boot)
<1> it gives me a bash: lilo command not found error
<1> warbo intel macs use emulated legacy bios'
<2> how do you switch to root
<2> ????
<3> lploisir1: note that among all the things it tells you to install, you probably only need to "sudo aptitude install nvidia-glx"
<1> the bootloader gets installed to the same partition linux is installed on
<4> graveson: ok, i did this last week. try this guide: http://parker1.co.uk/mythtv_ubuntu.php
<5> jnieto
<0> _Terry: Do they? Well now I have even less respect for Apple (really, BIOS would not exist if Windows was gone)
<2> i've tried "su"
<6> Anyone who knows?
<7> USING CP, how do I copy everything within a folder instead of copying the folder ?
<2> in the terminal....and typed in the p***word....nothing
<1> I kind of like BIOS better. I dont like the fact that I can't configure an EFI p***word for my mac
<8> johnnybong: is mythtv worth the time,my firends ae raving about it



<9> phoenixofcha0s cp /from /where -R
<9> man cp
<7> thanks !
<1> where as with my PC I can create a BIOS p***word locking the system out
<10> hi
<1> unless theres something I dont know
<11> _terry: pop the batter
<7> and how can i make it so that it shows what files its copying
<7> like a visual thing
<11> _terry: your bios p***word is gone
<7> what its up to or something ?
<1> try it troy , you'll think otherwise :)
<10> adept crashed and the apt system is (b)locked...any hint?
<12> Q: I want to upgrade from breezy to dapper. what are the possibilities that I will lose all my music, videos, pics and document? Can I do the wiki-type upgrade or should I install a fresh copy?
<7> current file its doing
<13> phoenixofcha0s: -v for verbose
<4> graveson: it can be a pig to set up, but worth it if you want all of the PVR functionality. If you just want to watch Digital TV, you can use Xine to do that, and it works very well.
<7> thanks :D
<11> _terry: had to do it a few times. you need to flash the bios. it does it every time.
<14> Speaking Ubuntu on a Mac... how would I go about having it automatically restore power after a blackout?
<15> phoenixofcha0s: 'cp -v' shows what it's copying
<1> maybe on your system, not on mine.
<11> _terry: the only persistant way is to write to disk.
<11> _terry: you are hitting the jumpers right? ;)
<2> i've upgraded...yesterday.....didn't lose anything
<7> so sudo cp -Rv is correct ?
<16> hi all. I'm about to install a dhcp3-server, but I would like to do it without bringing it up yet. is there a way to tell the instalation process to not to bvring up the service?
<11> _terry: it does it on all of them :)
<2> can't log into root though
<1> i'm pretty sure it doesnt lol
<11> _terry: you are mistaken
<13> phoenixofcha0s: think so yes
<1> especially the new ones, that are stored to an eeprom
<12> root? i thought sudo was the root
<17> styxman: if I remember well it will not bring up after installing
<1> i dont think jumpers overwrite those heh
<17> it warns you to set in /etc/default/dhcpd
<3> wiggieXpectsLess: unless you enable root manually.
<16> Svigi_wlan: ah, nice
<0> If I want to add a factoid to ubotu, do I put the factoid in quotes or something (Wiki is not clear)
<17> and the dhcpd.conf
<12> ok
<11> _terry: there is always a rewrite. remove battery, reset via jumper / etc. done.
<17> try it
<7> exelent
<12> so I can update and not worry?
<18> l
<11> warbo: ask ubotu
<19> I am desperate...my screen flickers\ripples whenever I play 3D games. I have nvidia drivers installed, fast writes and SBA enabled. I am baffled.
<11> warbo: he will give you the syntax
<13> Warbo: no need for quotes
<2> not sure
<7> using CP
<13> Warbo: blah is whatever
<2> I didn't lose anything
<7> how do i copy files within a directory
<1> removing the battery doesn't reset anything but the clock. Resetting the CMOS jumper only sets the BIOS to fail safe defaults. P***words are still intact
<7> and then put them in a differnt directory without copyuing the folder ?
<19> phoenixofcha0s: cp or mv i think
<12> well i'll update anyways... see what happens
<1> at least thats how mine runs



<20> phoenixofcha0s: cp dir1/dir2/filename but I don't think that was your question?
<7> Frogzoo, well im using this sudo cp -Rv /media/EXTERNAL/backup/ /home/ubuntu/Desktop/hda
<15> phoenixofcha0s: if you want to move the directory, use 'mv'
<1> and I love the hard drive lock features these new BIOS' come with too
<7> Frogzoo, and its making a backup folder in hda I dont want that i want to copy the files within
<1> hard lock the HDD
<21> hello,i have an integrated graphic

<10> how to remove "lvm2" without removing ubuntu-base?
<27> rob_p: I'm an idiot.. i didn't see that ubuntu comes with a full .bashrc in the home dir so HISTCONTROL always was exported after the global config files
<1> is there anyone here that has ubuntu running on a mac?
<1> (intel based)
<0> ubotu eagleusb is for USB modems like the Sagem F@st800 which need the eagle-usb driver. The current eagle-usb packages are broken, but the driver can be installed with this guide http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UsbAdslModem/EagleUsb

<0> ubotu forget eagleusb
<22> Warbo: i forgot eagleusb
<19> I am desperate...my screen flickers\ripples whenever I play 3D games. I have nvidia drivers installed, fast writes and SBA enabled. I am baffled.
<27> I guess it gets copied from /etc/skel when an account gets created
<0> ubotu eagleusb is for USB modems like the Sagem F@st800 which need the eagle-usb driver. The current eagle-usb packages are broken, but the driver can be installed with this guide http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UsbAdslModem/EagleUsb
<25> when I click on firestarter on the menu no window shows
<7> Frogzoo, _Spire_ its still doing the same thing making a folder called backup i dont want that
<24> Kibou: I think it's commented out by default though.
<7> i want the files IN backup to be put in hda
<25> anyone else have similar/

<29> I am having problems using maxima, it used to work find in breezy, in dapper it just doesn't function\
<7> Frogzoo, its still copying all the files to a folder called backup
<0> neutrinom***: I got a GAIM window open when a mate wanted to know how to start the driver at boot (after I already gave him a guide on how to install it) so I thought I'd write something official (since the ueagle-atm page only has an introduction at the moment)
<0> ic56: Doesn't matter
<0> !eagleusb
<22> rumour has it, eagleusb is for USB modems like the Sagem F@st800 which need the eagle-usb driver. The current eagle-usb packages are broken, but the driver can be installed with this guide http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UsbAdslModem/EagleUsb
<7> _Spire_ ??
<7> Frogzoo ?? :(
<26> Please? how am i supose to do?
<28> Warbo: Yes, I want to get round to documenting the procedure for Accessrunners as well ...
