Comments:
<0> intelikey, ah, thanks, i'll have to remember that. ;)
<1> I have a lot of free space
<0> Dtragcoen, yes.
<1> could I make my free space a new partition
<2> Dtragcoen: if u do updatedb regularly
<3> gparted might help you @ seeker
<4> Dtragcoen find works
<3> Or just cfdisk.
<5> If anyone's familiar with Nvu, I have a minor annoyance in the Source editing tab to address.
<6> can somebody please help me with evolution please...I configured wrongly and now everytime I startup the program it freezes
<7> somehow 5.10 seems to start up with ipv6 and stuff.. could this be interfering with things? How can I stop it from loading ipv6?
<2> wont be dapper installable from livecd? why are 2 version of flight-cds there (install / live ) ? is there a version of ubuntu without X at all?
<6> is there anyway to delete the configuration I just aded
<3> locate's easier than find, but yeah, find is what I usually use.
<2> phiber_optic: i would remove .evolution or whatever ( i use thunderbird / kontact )
<8> mandopando: Last question: You can choose to only install a server version, that won't cover X.
<4> tonyyarusso looks like you are out of everyones league there.... sorry.
<3> BTW: Seeker, what is wrong with your install?
<6> theres is no way to re configure it?
<5> intelikey: Eh, oh well. #nvu was empty too; maybe their site lists one...
<9> what's the default xcursor theme ubuntu uses?
<4> tonyyarusso it's kinda disheartening when you ask a question in a help channel and everyone says "what's that" ;/
<3> @ seeker - Also, if you have the space to make a new home partition, I'd make it your default home after the reinstall rather than going back to using home on root
<8> tonyyarusso: In Europe it's early in the morning... so depending on the location of developers, it's clear why #nvu is empty. ;)
<2> Tomcat_: i d like to make some general changes for my own use.. a special cd with schooltool and so on.. thats why i m askin
<5> Tomcat_: True enough. I just tried it on a hunch actually; their site doesn't even list an IRC channel. Just forums.
<8> mandopando: Have you checked the edubuntu distro? It should already contain a couple of things.
<1> OK i have an idea
<3> Finally got my laptop backed up. I just bought a new hdd for it and it took all evening to move everything over. :P
<1> is there a way to let my windows Machine pull data off my my ubuntu box?
<3> Samba
<6> how can I configure my user in evolution?
<8> seeker: Network or localhost?
<4> schooltool is only 31kb packed you could put that on a floppy.
<1> over a router
<1> I know little about networking
<8> seeker: Samba then, as Dtragcoen said.
<1> ok
<3> @seeker, On the same LAN, right?
<1> yes
<8> seeker: Using samba, your Ubuntu box should appear in the Windows networking stuff.
<10> sweet, I've got my computer sound running thru my stereo receiver now!
<3> Only, thing is need to set up ubuntu as a samba server and share home
<3> Nice Mad
<1> ok
<1> I will try that
<4> Madpilot yeah that's the only way to do snd
<8> seeker: What you need to do: 1) Install samba 2) Change samba config to share directories you want to share 3) enable/add samba users... and that should be it. :o
<11> how do i start a group chat on psi? i typed a name of a room, but psi seems to be doing nothing
<3> @seeker - System -> Administration -> shared folder in ubuntu (gnome)
<3> Use SMB
<10> intelikey: now I need to decide whether onboard sound is "good enough", or if I should cough up for a 'real' sound card...
<3> For share type
<4> cash on hand usually desides things like that for me.....
<8> Madpilot: Most onboard sound cards are quite decent these days... but if you're an audiophile you might want to buy something really good.
<3> The quality of onboard sound really varies, imxp.
<4> imxp ? that's a new one on me...
<10> I'm currently broke from buying new stereo speakers, so onboard will have to do for now... it's AC/97 on a newish Asus board, so it's not technically horrible...
<3> In My Experience
<12> should grub be able to boot logical partitions, and if so... hda5 should be hd0,4 in my menu.1st
<3> Not very common...
<2> Tomcat_: the thing should be small for testing purposes.. thats why i really have to go without X..
<13> what's the current dapper kernel?
<4> you mean imo
<3> IMO is In My Opinion
<4> yea
<3> There's a difference.
<6> is there a way in evolution to select IMAP directory
<2> intelikey: schooltool is based on zope3.. its much bigger than 1.44MB..
<4> very little. most opinions are based on some experance
<3> The fact that onboard sound varies is an established fact though, not just a personal opinion
<4> mandopando you mean depends on that ?
<2> intelikey: yeah
<4> phiber_optic used to be... i'd think there still is. but i don't know what happened to the wether page in evo either.
<6> :(
<4> mandopando k i didn't check any deps just looked at the info on it.
<4> !info schooltool
<14> schooltool: (common platform for school administration), section misc, is optional. Version: 0.11.2-1 (breezy), Packaged size: 31 kB, Installed size: 184 kB
<2> intelikey: i wouldnt install schooltool from ubuntu-repos.. i will customize and repackage it.. thats the whole idea of the cd
<4> !info zope3
<14> zope3: (Open Source Web Application Server (Libraries)), section python, is optional. Version: 3.1.0-1 (breezy), Packaged size: 3241 kB, Installed size: 23156 kB
<2> !python
<14> python is, like, an easy-to-learn yet powerful programming language! http://www.python.org/
<4> i see what you mean about size. that's probably not all.
<2> xml stuff idl stuff and so on .. never ending deps-war
<15> and here i was writing my own web application server
<16> how can i give access to a user to hear connections from some port?
<15> hmm, that would be on their side?
<16> saying to me, p33ka ?
<4> iptables but don't ask me for more than that. i don't know how, just where to look.
<17> hello
<17> I am back
<16> i am doing a 'test server' that hears on 1000 port, but i don't want to run it with root
<17> on my Windows machine
<15> well.. yeah it doesn't seem you can, for a logged in user without giving them iptables.. or a least a port to work with..?
<17> how do I get my windows machine to "see" my ubuntu machine?
<18> ooh, question. i've set up a samba share, visible from xp and all. but is there an xp equivalent of "mounting" the share, so software on the xp machine can find it somewhere in the c drive?
<16> iptables?..
<16> JThomas, samba?
<8> JThomas: Install Samba (System, Admin, Shared Folders)
<4> yes iptables dark_light
<17> yes I installed Samba
<15> sounds like a 'user' can use all the ports they need to on your machine, dark_light
<17> and made my home directory a shared folder
<18> smbp***wd, JThomas
<19> Question: just loaded ubuntu on a g3 iMac. All Good. but I tried to install the new (1.5) Firefox (following guide on wiki.ubuntu.com) but it failed to load after install. I'm pretty new at Linux (tho I did this very install and upgrade on a compaq laptop, successfully). Any thoughts on whether this should be possible
<17> what?
<17> I am on my windows machine
<8> jacquesmerde: The only mounting you can do in XP is that you can mount a shared folder as new drive... like Z: for instance.
<17> I installed and configured Samba
<18> Tomcat_, perfect! how do i do that?
<17> now what I want to do is pull my home folder over
<8> JThomas: You need samba on the machine that will serve the files.
<20> how can i install new x11 mouse themes?
<15> dmad, i installed ff1.5.01 it works, but i broke a few ubuntu features, like help :)
<16> p33ka, no, but.. forgot it, i give up for now
<19> p33ka, yikes, was it on a mac?
<17> Tomcat_ I installed Samba on the Linux box
<8> jacquesmerde: Right click on the folder, choose the right option? I have no idea, not used XP much.
<4> Tomcat_ keep up.
<17> I am on the windows Machine
<17> its installed
<15> dmad, no. shouldn't be any different tho
<8> JThomas: You need to add and/or activate the users having access to these folders on the Ubuntu machine.
<21> JThomas: and you need to set up a samba user... run "smbp***wd -a username" on the linux box from a term
<3> JT, run (I believe) net view \\<name of ubuntu box> on the win machine to see if it can see the ubuntu server
<17> I made my home directory a shared folder
<21> JThomas: and then from windows... start, run, \\ip.address.of.linux.box
<8> intelikey: What do you mean? :)
<17> ok
<3> I hope I got that right.
<17> brb
<3> *chuckle*
<21> Dtragcoen: just start, run, \\computername... that net view is dos line stuff
<15> dmad, all i did was a manual hack, renamed the old firefox folder and moved the new one in place from memory
<19> p33ka, but it was ... followed the commands to the letter, days apart, and it said it wouldn't load the "binaries" or somth. like that
<20> how can i install new x11 mouse themes?
<1> back on the Linux box
<18> Tomcat_, yeah, tried right clicking. no love. thats about all i know how to do. too bad there aint a twdp.org
<1> could you repeat the message you sent me about how to create a samba user?
<19> p33ka, k, i might try that route.
<3> Sorry, I still use the command line is Win2k and xp more often than some of the apps.
<21> seeker: open a term... "smbp***wd -a username"
<15> dmad, i did chmod -x the .so's but i dont know if that helped :)
<19> p33ka, thanks
<4> i would think so bur[n]er
<1> when I do that
<1> it just give me this huge text feed
