Comments:
<0> robbo: "dpkg-reconfigure <packagename>" will let you configure any package. in this specific case, the package is "xserver-xorg"
<1> So if I follow the rest of those steps, everything should work?
<2> gnomefreak, I'll try to install 5.10
<0> rendo: i hope so
<1> Me too, it's the ONLY game I play.
<2> can I upgrade from 5.04?, gnomefreak
<3> learner_learner: its alot better iirc
<3> learner_learner: your having sources issues i dont think thats a good idea unless you grab the breezy sources from easysource
<0> rendo: but just ask again if you get stuck at another step. it's just that we like questions to be to-the-point, rather than "can someone help me installing x", you see
<3> ubotu tell learner_learner about upgrade
<4> Anyone know the folder with the image files for icon themes?
<1> Okay, I just tried to make the symbolic link and it says hard link not allowed for directory :/
<2> thanks, gnomefreak
<3> yw learner_learner
<3> ok night all its gettin late here
<0> rendo: no, sorry, i didn't explain myself. *don't* follow the steps you pasted on the pastebin, because i believe those are already taken care of
<3> and my damn ff is broken :(
<0> rendo: just go on with the rest of the setup
<1> Oh okay.
<1> So just mount the iso and it should work?
<0> rendo: well, i don't know. do the instructions mention anything else?
<5> some one can explain me how to maque azureus and eclips coexist in breezy becouse if i have one instaled and i try to install the other one i cant
<1> Probably, but I'm an idiot.
<6> Reconfiguring X. I have a GForce 4400 card. The configured driver is 'nv', with 'nvidia' is underneath. Which one is correct?
<0> rendo: if they do, then follow the rest of them (or ask if you aren't sure). anyway, i don't think that just trying to mount the .iso and seeing if it works will do any real harm
<6> (Configuring bgecuase resolution won't go beyond 60)
<1> New question.
<7> with gnome-terminal, if i expand the window size, then write a command line that is long, it wraps around the screen really funny
<7> how do i fix this?
<1> Where do I unmount things I mounted that I shouldn't have?
<1> :P
<0> rendo: you can type "sudo umount /place/where/you/mounted/that/thing"
<8> How do I switch between tasks in the terminal?
<0> rendo: like, "sudo umount /media/cdrom" to unmount your CD drive
<9> rukuartic: what do you mean?
<0> rukuartic: hm? a terminal only runs *one* task, unless you use some tricks
<8> LjL, yeah thats what I'm talking about, sort of
<8> Isn't it like some ctrl+key command that lets you switch beteen tasks?
<5> some one can explain me how to make azureus and eclips coexist in breezy becouse if i have one instaled and i try to install the other one i cant
<0> rukuartic: well, if you have only one task running, i don't see how a hotkey would let you switch between tasks that aren't there :)
<0> rukuartic: what about simply opening another terminal?
<9> rukuartic: google job and process management
<1> BBL, thanks for the help, if I have problems (I will I know it) I'll ask for help, sorry for being impatient I just hate not knowing things.
<9> rukuartic: might need linux and bash in there too
<0> rukuartic: or, you can run "command &" to make "command" run in the background, which will let you type in the terminal while "command" is still running
<8> LjL, yeah well my problem is kinda this ;p I open a GUI task (EG GAIM) with a console, and Iw ant to close the window
<8> LjL OOH I think thats it
<10> hi! would it be hard to move the kernel to a cdrom? (i don't have a usbkey) and boot from there.. thinking bout encrypting the root fs.. mostly for fun.. anyone doing this?
<0> rukuartic: what window?
<8> LjL bash window
<11> 4 cds wasted and the same exact file fails at the md5sum check/cd interegrety check... So the iso file on atleast 2 of the ubuntu mirrors is deifnitely corrupt then :X
<0> rukuartic: no can do
<8> LjL But if I close the bash window then it dies... yeah I thought so
<9> rukuartic: use screen
<11> odd that no one has fixed it considering that the image is not that new
<8> _jason, ?
<9> rukuartic: type 'screen'
<0> rukuartic: as soon as you close a terminal, any program that you started from it will close, even if you use "&"
<0> rukuartic: yes, screen is a program that will create a "sticky" terminal that will still be running even after you close the actual terminal
<0> rukuartic: typing "screen -r" later will let you be back to your screened terminal
<8> Ok
<8> Hmm.... :: fiddles::
<12> how do i emulate a floppy disk drive? like it's supposed to be a floppy disk but it really dumps everything to file?
<11> so what are my options then??
<9> rukuartic: find a tutorial online, it's the best way. ctrl-A, and then ? will give you a summary of commands
<11> is there any previous version to download or something?
<0> Boxman: is that the breezy cd? the breezy cd iso image is fine
<9> rukuartic: erm I mean ctrl-a ?, no need for cap A
<8> ok
<11> LjL, this one: ubuntu-5.10-live-amd64.iso
<8> lets say I go run "vi &"
<8> vi's running in the background. would I be able to switch to it?
<11> downloaded it from 2 different mirrors, burned it on 4 cdr and it fails at the exact same spot
<11> and the md5sum of the iso matches the one on the mirrors.
<0> Boxman: oh, i see. don't know about the 64 bit version, but i have more than one gigabyte of free space, so i can try downloading it and seeing if the checksum matches
<9> rukuartic: fg
<8> fg?
<0> Boxman: can you save me some time and give me a link please?
<9> rukuartic: yeah just type 'fg' after that
<11> ftp://ftp.uninett.no/linux/ubuntu-iso/5.10/ubuntu-5.10-live-amd64.iso
<0> Boxman: thank you
<11> this is where i downlaod it from last :)
<11> thanks alot for testing :)
<8> Ok... now ho wwould I be able to get back to the prompt from that? Just close VI?
<12> how do i make a virtual floppy drive?
<9> rukuartic: ctrl-z
<8> Aaaah Thats what I was going for.
<9> rukuartic: 'jobs' will list
<0> Boxman: that mirror's tool slow (with respect to being 3am), so i'll have to download from more than one mirror concurrently. what's the other mirror you used?
<11> http://mirror.trivini.no/ubuntu-iso/5.10/ubuntu-5.10-install-amd64.iso <--- i guess it will be as slow, since it is located in the same country
<11> i got good speeds from them myself. 600-750kB/s
<0> Boxman: doesn't matter, as i'll be downloading from both of them concurrently
<11> ah i see
<0> Boxman: yes, i'm getting 700-something as well now, using both. i was getting 450/500 before
<13> grr, my usb2 HD still stops for no reason sometimes
<14> hrm
<15> RageMax: stops?
<13> yeah stops transferring data
<16> hallo everyone
<14> what do you guys recommend as the troubleshooting process to get sound working?
<13> then it starts up again
<14> my card appears in /proc/asound/cards
<17> i had lots of problems with usb in linux.. same thing but with mic
<13> I can't figure out what's going on with it
<17> mice*
<14> But I hear nothing from anything, and speaker-test produces no output
<15> RageMax: stalls? does dmesg say anything?
<13> WiFiTux: well it used to have USB resets, but there's nothing in dmesg anymore as far as I can tell
<13> never prints a message
<18> what is interesting is how..... php mysql and apache play a major role most of the packages I have installed
<15> RageMax: it doesn't need 2 USB cables or so?
<13> WiFiTux: it only does it when it's transferring a lot of data, like when I'm playing a FLAC song or doing backups
<13> 2USB cables??
<13> no
<13> there is only one output on the enclosure
<15> RageMax: one power and another to transfer. Is common.
<13> no, it uses a brick
<19> _jonas: ;(
<15> RageMax: well, and those are USB2 or 1.1?
<13> it's definitely USB2
<19> not works
<20> OK people. I'm trying a netboot install of breezy
<13> or else I wouldn't be getting the speeds that I am
<18> does anyone run snort-mysql and acidlab?
<20> according to these instructions: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Installation/LocalNet
<20> I can't get the dchpd server up
<19> _jason: ;(
<17> !enter
<21> please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and is annoying. Write in complete sentences and keep your replies and questions on one line if possible. Thanks!
<22> is there an easy way to get windows xp to boot by default if no option is chosen in the grub loader cuz right now it boots to ubuntu
<9> Wanted: try #gnome, and try the #gnome on the gnome server too
<15> RageMax: dunno, see if you can find a command to lower the speed of xfer and see if that would make a diff, or use another kernel.
<13> WiFiTux: I'm wondering if it has to do with the PC bus, this is only a 400mhz machine
<18> what with the D at the end of every acronym like htppd ftpd dhcpd?
<0> tatters: "daemon"
<19> ok _jason tanks
<18> oh
<15> RageMax: 400mhz and is a USB2 machine? hell no unles is a PCI thingie
<23> I changed my audio board and now gnome doesn't start (even in failsafe)... how can I fix that?
<16> aliencds goto /etc/grub/grub.conf or so
<20> I am having trouble getting the dchpd3 server running on a netboot install. can someone tell me what is wrong? I am following the instructions https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Installation/LocalNet
<13> WiFiTux: it's a PCI USB2 card
<15> Brunellus: ?
<0> tatters: means roughly "service", in windows terms. anyway it's something running in the background continuously, possibly (but not necessary) listening to a TCP connection
<22> tyranos wtf is that <-noob
<15> RageMax: I would say yes. The PCI bus on the P2 ****s.
<24> How can I upgrade Firefox in Ubuntu?
<20> WiFiTux, I am trying to install breezy by netboot and I am having trouble getting the dhcpd server
<20> up
<15> RageMax: I mean the bandwidth of the ICH
<18> thnx for info LjL
