<3> easyubuntu is an easy-to-use program for installing all your favorites. Java, Nvidia/ATI, and more. It is as safe as the team can make it. It doesn't change any settings by default. http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/ or #easyubuntu
<4> One more shot at this: Anyone who has had success with winmodems, I'd like to know which ones they were. (Have one myself, checking others for someone.)
<5> does anyone in here run crossover office
<6> chris: fwiw, I have my lexmark working. Had to build the driver myself though.
<7> carpediem: have you added it to the wiki's printer page/
<7> ?
<2> carpediem: i am new i am learning fast everyday thanx be patient
<2> carpediem: any website info with building drivers
<6> Madpilot: uhh, err, no. First I've heard of the wiki printer page.
<8> chris: how did you know it didn't work?
<6> chris: you may not need to build the driver
<2> I tried it
<6> chris: what model do you have?
<7> carpediem: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters
<2> 3150 trio
<2> I got useful info from alot and this is the first time logged on.
<2> I'' try these thnks carpediem!!! :-)
<8> chris: you thought that link was for you eh? you weren't asking about root p*** also
<2> naw.
<9> okay guys i need the line folr my sources.list file that enables multiverse in dapper
<6> chris: wait, I'm looking something up
<2> okay
<7> !repos
<3> To enable Universe and Multiverse see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/AddingRepositoriesHowto - Official sources.lists here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6047 (Breezy) or http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6666 (Dapper) see also !easysource
<7> shadeofgrey: ^^^
<10> I am having trouble with modprobe snd-bt-sco
<11> !easysource
<3> For an easy to use custom sources.list creator, visit http://ubuntulinux.nl/source-o-matic
<8> Mondo rocks!
<6> chris: is this a scanner printer combo?
<2> yes, with scanner
<10> i am getting error FATAL: Module snd_bt_sco not found.
<12> tonyyarusso: out of interest, i thought you'd be avoiding winmodems. i.e. shouldn't you be asking which ones aren't windmodems?
<5> does anyone in here run crossover office
<4> brenner: Well, I'm talking specific to built-in things for laptops, which for anything recent seems to be a winmodem.
<10> i did for a minute then removed it and went back to wine
<10> get an external modem for your laptop
<4> penticlex: That's one way I guess.
<6> chris: I'm not coming up with anything. It may still be possible, but I don't see much mention of it. Maybe its a very new model or something.
<12> yeah, that's what i did....i've got a conexant in this laptop. i just used an old usr one rather than using the linuxant driver.
<2> carpediem: well, thanx for tying, i have several different websites advised i will look thru them.. I will logg in tommorrow
<6> chris: good luck
<4> Here's what I'm trying to respond to: I learned that Ubuntu allowed you to use a dial up modem at 28K (actually 14/56) to connect to the internet. I rehab old computers for a thrift store and Id like to try providing a few linux computers for people to try, but most of our clientele can only afford dial up service using the winmodem in their computer. Can you give me any more details on what exact Ubuntu you used and what
<10> how about a pcmcia modem
<13> Hi, I need help with ubuntu
<4> penticlex: Such as?
<10> hayes
<10> thay usualy always work
<14> tonyyarusso, check this out.
<14> http://www.devidal.tv/~chris/winmodems/winmodem.html#intro
<14> may also want to look at the full list
<14> http://www.devidal.tv/~chris/winmodems/pci_list.html
<15> jitka: just ask
<14> and here's the pcmcia list
<14> http://www.devidal.tv/~chris/winmodems/pcmcia_list.html
<13> I choose ubuntu yesterday. Before yesterday I used windows
<11> jitka: Welcome.
<14> jitka, congratulations on your switch.
<14> what can we help you with?
<4> brenner, penticlex, eobanb: Thank you all for the input.
<10> yay another on leaves wincrap
<10> yay another one leaves wincrap
<16> how can i use make calls using Yahoo's cheap rates? (their messener with voice is only for windows users)
<11> jitka: You will be tempted to turn back to Windows. You will face obstacles. Don't it's not worth it.
<11> I know I sure was.
<15> jitka: good choice
<6> bigfoot1: perhaps you could use Skype instead.
<5> how do you install a crossover office isntalled applications icon to your desktop to just click
<12> tonyyarusso: good luck w/ your search
<10> skype rules
<4> brenner: Thanks.
<16> carpediem: skype's rates are twice as high
<14> bigfoot1, you probably have a variety of options. you could try running yahoo messenger with wine, but there are other VoIP apps out there that probably offer very similar rates.
<10> also chek out jabber for video conferancing
<6> bigfoot1: oh, that ****s. I don't know what to say then.
<13> And when I waqnna listen music - play mp3, system write me: there no drtectores found to handle the stream ...
<16> no prob carpediem. seize the day!!!
<10> xmms for mp3
<17> hello
<16> hello
<6> bigfoot1: ;)
<4> !tell jitka about mp3
<16> i love it when people smile at me
<10> can any one help with installing a kernel module
<14> jitka, have a look at http://help.ubuntu.com/starterguide/C/faqguide-all.html#codecs
<13> and amarok for mp3?
<6> penticlex: which part?
<4> jitka: mp3 doesn't work out of the box because of legal issues, but the thing ubotu just sent you will set you right up.
<6> amarok rocks.
<6> jitka: amarok in Ubuntu uses Gstreamer (by default). So getting mp3 working will get it working in Amarok.
<12> it's a kde app though...
<18> is it me or ubuntu 5.1 takes longer to boot up?
<4> elnayr: Not sure, but I just installed BUM and turned off a few things I don't need.
<18> this is the first time I install Ubuntu on my laptop and the boot up seems to be slower than Ubuntu 5.0
<19> Dapper Drake goin to have xorg 7 /
<19> ?
<20> elnayr, the versions are Ubuntu 5.04, and 5.10
<13> system write me to must instal pluing
<21> MachineScrew: http://packages.ubuntu.com/dapper/x11/xserver-xorg
<18> yeah 5.04
<14> MachineScrew, as opposed to what? Xgl?
<22> any one know how to edit images in a hack to each pecific image you want
<11> I'm off to try and reinstall WinXP and then get Ubuntu to work afterwards. Wish me luck.
<11> <3
<19> eobanb, well xcomposite
<23> good luck!
<20> Hivemind, o.o
<20> Good luck.
<19> or its replacement or somthing
<17> Is there a way to reinstall grub on Breezy from the live CD when boot drive isn't working ?
<23> It's funny. I can install linux standing on my head, but the windows install makes my computer asplode. >.<
<24> phbc50: yes
<25> phbc50: boot drive isnt working?
<14> MachineScrew, ubuntu will probably offer Xgl and compiz in the future, as an option. probably in the release after dapper
<24> do you still have your mbr?
<17> nop lost the boot sector by installing another OS..
<15> jitka: you need to state your problem concisely in one line and ask your question, otherwise it will be difficult for people to help you. I think you mentioned mp3's so I am going to have the bot send you a private message on how to enable mp3 playback. Read the link he sends you in a private message. I'm off to bed, so if you need something else, ask the channel
<15> ubotu: tell jitka about mp3
<15> ubotu: tell jitka about ask
<23> phbc50, grub_install ftw!
<14> MachineScrew, if you want to try that kind of stuff now, there are instructions online for enabling compositing in xorg and using xcompmgr.
<23> err grub-install
<24> how can I start and application to a certain workspace?
<17> do you mean sudo grub-install ftw ?
<17> I suppose so
<17> oki thanks
<20> phbc50, heh, yes. grub-install /dev/hda
<25> boot the rescue disk, mount /, run grub-install /dev/hda or whatever the drive is.
<17> it is hdd, so I should run from command line "grub-install /dev/hdd" ?
<25> yes
<20> phbc50, please do.
<26> anyone know of a console based PDF viewer?
<17> Ok thanks a lot :)
<4> Won't phbc50 need sudo for that?
<27> dd
<24> tonyyarusso, yes
<17> YukiCuss and dhirsch
<19> eobanb, ya I know its just slow
<17> thanks
<4> d3s: 'k, just checking.
<19> xorg 7 was supposed to improve it
<19> I heard
<14> MachineScrew, how slow?
