Comments:

<0> cp -Rv /media/EXTERNAL/backup/* /home/ubuntu/Desktop/hda that is not working !
<1> benkong2: There is an option in System>Administration>Login Screen
<2> johnnybong: splash screen - yes. glxinfo - already tried but I not sure what bits would reveal problems with 3d - what to look for?
<3> Warbo: thanks
<1> Login Window, sorry
<4> hi all! need help: i tried apt-get for k7-smp kernel but i cant get internet acess on http och ping any more. not with new or old kernel. writing this mess from stoopid-xp. any ideas?
<5> rob_p: another question. does bash.bashrc get sourced before or after /etc/profile?
<6> phoenixofchaOs: please name the intended source and target directories.
<1> uglymonke: Did you install your modem drivers from source (so your new kernel doesn't have them)?
<7> uglymonke: Running DHCP ?
<7> uglymonke: Is your network card listed in 'ifconfig -a' ?
<4> Jemt/Warbo: static ip - on ifconfig my static addr shows up
<8> hey, anyone know how set the directory that something is launched from when you create a launcher for the panel?
<0> can somebody please help me :'(
<7> uglymonke: Can you ping your gateway ?
<6> phoenixofchaOs: please tell us the intended source and target directories.



<9> gizmo_the_great: hmm, might be worth checking that direct rendering is 'on'; otherwise, just checking vendor strings, etc.
<0> I want to get the files within a folder, and put them in a differnet directory this is not working sudo cp -Rv /media/EXTERNAL/backup/* /home/ubuntu/Desktop/hda
<1> bjron: You would have to make a simple script which "cd"s to the right directory then runs the app
<4> Jemt/Warbo: but no rx/tx of bytes.. ah is that the 255.255.... ?
<10> Hello, I am having problems with my sound quality being exceptionally low, can anyone remedy my situation?
<0> what that is doing is, making another folder called backup which is not what i want !
<11> !parentalcontrols
<12> parse error: Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, eugman
<7> uglymonke: 255... is your submask
<7> uglymonke: Can you ping your gateway ?
<13> phoenixofcha0s, you dont want to use 'cp' that will mess up all your permissions and so forth.
<1> bjron: just put "#!/bin/bash" as the top line (with no quotes) and the rest of the script as whatever you type in a terminal to get the program up (that includes cd and stuff). Then make it executable and make your launcher execute the script
<14> hi, does anyone know how to set up the vimicro usb pc camera 301x?
<0> dr_willis what do i use then !
<6> phoenixofchaOs: please name the intended source and target directories.
<0> cp -Rv /media/EXTERNAL/backup/* /home/ubuntu/Desktop/hda
<11> Come on ubotu, you really need to get something on parental controls
<10> hello, i am having a problem with my sound quality, can anyone help?
<4> Jemt/Warbo: (im in xp now) if i can ping then where is the error?
<9> gotta go now!
<0> i want the files in backup to be put in hda but not in a backup folder in hda that make sense ?
<7> Not easy to help you when you are not in Ubuntu
<13> phoenixofcha0s, the correct tar commands like you had easlier with the proper options. It may be worth the errort to fine a HOWTO on backing/up/restoreing a hard drive using tar
<8> Warbo: thanks, I was afraid that might be the only way (not that it's all that difficult, but seems like there should be that functionality directly in the launcher properties). ;p
<1> uglymonke: Sorry, I am useless at networking, but I have installed a few kernel modules in my time
<0> ok fine fine how do i move
<0> move files
<13> phoenixofcha0s, if the files get copied to the hd. you could then 'mv' them up one directory. But still i bet you will have to do some tweaking/fixing to get a working system
<4> Jemt: not easy to get your help when im in ubuntu at the time being :)
<11> !gibberish
<12> Wish I knew. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, eugman
<7> uglymonke: I would first check that the network card is present (ifconfig -a), that it is configured, that you can ping the gateway. One of these steps probably fails
<15> how in the heck can i install the newest kernel in 5.10 without breaking everything
<7> uglymonke: True :)
<16> re
<17> do you need something simonpca
<0> ah awseome ill just do that then !
<13> phoenixofcha0s, its best to just backuo your homedir and do a reinstall.
<1> bjron: That is only really needed for commercial applications (I'm guessing that's what you want it for) so there is no real need to add it to the Launcher dialog
<14> hi, does anyone know how to set up the vimicro usb pc camera 301x?
<6> phoenixofchaOs: the cp command you are listing should work. Don't forget the star at the of backup/*
<0> dr_willis, thats far to late.
<13> phoenixofcha0s, or use a dedicated backup program like mondo/mindi, or other similer program
<16> opitwin: hmm, not, why?
<4> Jemt: first step works. i tried it. if second step fails where shoul i look for answer?
<2> can any1 tell me some diagnostic tools or commands to diagnose issues with 3D (other than glxgears, glxinfo, and cat /proc/driver/nvidia/agp/status?) . Fast writes, SBA and direct rendering all enabled. But I still having problems.
<13> phoenixofcha0s, if your homedir is in that backed up dir.. its still there..
<18> hellow, how can i change the dns manually? what file?
<19> how do I update GAIM w/ apt-get?
<17> simonpca: just wondering
<0> dr_willis, i needed to make a windows partion and i had to delete everything
<16> bobo: sudo apt-get install gaim
<14> hi, does anyone know how to set up the vimicro usb pc camera 301x?
<1> bobo: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install gaim
<20> Hi... if i chnage my graphics card how do I configure x to use it?
<0> so i moved all my files over
<0> and yeah
<21> bobo: if you mean gaim2 beta its a bit harder than that
<7> uglymonke: No idea. Could be a driver issue - havn't experienced any such problems with Ubuntu. It has quite a large database of drivers. Do you know what chipset your card is based on ?
<8> Warbo, why only needed for commerial apps?
<17> simonpca: Do you know anything about Kubuntu?



<7> uglymonke: SIS is known to be very Windows-only
<2> johnsie: what graphics card you got?
<16> opitwin: in fact, I need to have 300 Mo free on my / :D
<0> dr_willis, after everything is copied, how do i move it up a directory if its in /home/ubuntu/Desktop/hda/backup
<16> opitwin: a liitle, i've installed it
<11> Anyone know of a good howto for setting up dansguardian and some proxy
<20> Not sure what one it is
<17> simonpca: Does it work as well as Ubuntu?
<4> Jemt: nforce4 but internet was working before - htts how i got the new kernel :)
<16> opitwin: yeah!
<16> i uninstalled KDE
<16> to make some roomo
<7> uglymonke: Ohh, I see
<16> room*
<13> mv * .. perhaps.. but that may also mess up your permissions
<22> I tried to configure plugger for opera. And I got error message configure: error: Unable to find X11 libraries. I tried install different libraries and dev-packages, but It doesn't help me.
<1> bjron: Usually commercial apps (like ones I use) need to be run from their directory (so they can be generic for any distro), but FLOSS programs can be changed and packaged by distro maintainers to put binaries in $PATH so no folder is needed
<7> uglymonke: Why are you messing with the kernel ?
<23> is there a program that allows me to convert .ico files to .png files (putting each different layer of the .ico into a different .png)
<17> simonpca: I don't like KDE very much either
<16> opitwin: very stable; but at my taste gnome is more "productive"
<24> How do I make Evolution show the mails threaded ?
<20> is there like some kind of terminal diagnosis tool i can use to check for a graphics card
<20> ?
<17> simonpca: I really like gnome
<16> opitwin: yeah, me too :)
<16> XFCE seems to be nice too
<25> xfce rules
<26> xfce is kind of like mini-gnome in many ways
<7> meherenOS-X: I think 'magick' is what your are looking for
<6> phoenixofchaOs: do you mean you are trying to copy your entire root filesystem? cp won't do that right.
<7> !magick
<12> I don't know, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, Jemt
<27> is anybody noticing synaptics touchpad kinda crazy?
<23> ok thx
<13> phoenixofcha0s, what is your exact 'restore' command you are doing?
<7> BRB
<0> omfg
<17> simonpca: What is xfce?
<23> jemt and i can install by and apt-get magick right?
<4> Jemt: messing :) ? i found tips on how to speed ubu and kernel choice was one-- everyone else on the thread seemed to have 0 probs...
<21> JeezGodDamnit: please change you nick
<0> dr_wilis, im the biggest noob ever, there is actual folder called backup in the folders that need copying
<0> haha my bad
<28> hola
<16> opitwin: another WM like gnome and KDE;
<1> opitwin: It is an alternative desktop environment (smaller, works on older computers)
<16> !tell opitwin about xfce
<28> hkogo
<28> quetal
<29> !es
<12> Para Espaol por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
<28> quee+
<30> Installing Quicktime. What do you do next? make: *** No rule to make target `i686', needed by `all'. Stop.
<13> phoenixofcha0s, Linux tip #1 - "THINK" :P
<17> simonpca: is it just like gnome?
<19> what's the shortcut for the terminal?
<0> dr_willis, after its copied i need to trick it with chroot
<16> opitwin: not really
<28> holka
<31> how can i add events to my etc/acpi/event directory? i keep getting "permission denied"
<0> then do something with grub ?
<1> iiiears: Sounds like you need to fix some source :)
<16> i plan to test it soon
<17> simonpca: Is that what Xubuntu runs?
<16> opitwin: yeah :D
<13> phoenixofcha0s, yep. if you are lucky thats all it will need. :P
<30> Warbo - lol - NVM then - hahaha
<1> bobo: alt-f2
<32> How would I disallow a user access to any folder but his homefolder?
<0> dr_willis, i need to change the grub thing after
<30> Warbo - Thank You. :)
<0> so i can dual boot
<19> Warbo, thanks
