<0> Zoo: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo
<1> thanks.. anyways :)
<2> I just finished the installation, but when I boot the display is all scrabled. bios display fine, its just when ubuntu loads that it gets weird. Anyone had/fixed this problem?
<3> Can someone tell me how to setup widescreen for my laptop monitor. it is currently stuck in 1024x768 i need to get it to 1280x1024, but gnome wont let me. I have modified my xorg file already but its still not working.
<4> !fixres
<5> Please read http://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto
<4> tried that?
<1> lmao @ that site though
<3> Nameeater, not yet, ill do that now. Ill be back if it doesnt work. Thanks
<1> ubuntu need to stop trying be sarcastic with people lool :P
<6> how can i do that from /etc/fstab : the problem with seeing the ntfs partitions?
<7> gnomefreak, if you fireup synaptic, all the packages that are in the repos are shown
<4> charles_: :)
<8> Hi all
<1> lmao @ ubuntu " It avoids the "I can do anything" interactive login by default -you will be prompted for a p***word before major changes can happen, which should make you think about the consequences of what you are doing.
<1> so... sometimes people like to feel the power ;)
<9> tiede: thats not what i asked i asked if there is a way to view what packages are in a single repo
<1> thats why me and Xandros became m8's right off bat, then I reversed engineered it, and it became my slave :-)
<10> automagically: you able to open sources.list yet?
<8> one little question: How do I install *.deb files?
<11> !deb
<5> To install a deb: sudo dpkg -i filename.deb
<1> happy
<9> !deb
<1> for example bud
<7> follow the link of the repo in firefox :-?
<12> bjour tous
<8> ?
<13> happycamper, I think you should use apt-get or synaptic
<14> saqn:/dev/hda5 /media/data ntfs nls=utf8,umask=0222 0 0
<9> tiede: yeah i was kind of leaning toward that
<8> hmmm .. but i want learn more abaout it :)
<13> happycamper, installing debs by hand not always is a good idea
<15> anyone knows if there exists a graphical etc/fstab manager?
<14> saqn: that's a sample entry in fstab to read the ntfs partition
<3> Nameeater, That page did not cover widescreen monitor problems. I know how to modify xorg.conf to change resolutions just fine. But there is a issue with widescreen support with ubuntu\gnome and i know there is a work around i just dont know what it is :( anyone know how to do wide screen on a laptop??
<15> in gnome
<1> them muggs get tired of always chattin to hel people..
<1> that why they should program artificial intelligence, if they was even smarter.. to have a iRobot.. say.... Tell user about deb!.. etc
<8> it works :)
<1> ;)
<13> happycamper, apt-get actually installs deb pkgs, but it fetches them out by tre repo, satisfiyng dependencies...
<1> for example
<1> say I downloaded this.. libdvdcss2-dev_1.2.9-1_i386.deb
<13> ubotu, tell happycamper about apt-get
<1> I would do... on my debian system , or Xandros.. seeing because I do.. su -
<16> charles_: well.. just set the correct resolution in your xorg.conf
<1> but first like say I had it in.. /home/user/
<1> I would be like.. zoo@linux:~# cd /home/user/
<16> m4ur1g10: gvim ? :)
<1> zoo@linux:~# dir , to show me what was in the dir
<1> it eve helps. so you can look at your files.. .. just a nice way to navigate
<17> yay it worked thanks alex2456
<15> thx kilippo i'll give it a try
<1> zoo@linux:~# dpkg -i livdvdcss2-dev_1.2.9-1_i386
<2> I'm having display problems at login, the splash screen is hella scrambled, I tried going command line for login but it wont display properly either. Anyone help?
<1> oh wait..
<1> zoo@linux:~# dpkg -i libdvdcss2-dev_1.2.9-1_i386.deb
<1> :-)
<1> but would be more something like, if I was in that dir
<18> !gpg
<5> I heard gpg is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/GPGKey or http://www.linuxgazette.com/node/8746
<9> Nickssf: run sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and change everything to the correct settings
<17> since you have to download all these packages and stuff... would it be near impossible to use linux on dialup?
<9> btw tiede cant open it in browser either :(
<19> HI
<20> hi
<9> automagically: it works fine on dial up
<19> :P
<1> zoo@linux:~/home/zoo$ dpkg -i filename.deb :-)
<13> automagically, you can d/l somewhere a dvd with A LOT of ubuntu pkgs, and use it as a repo
<13> automagically, i don't remeber where...
<19> anyone else know of the annoying junk with the sources now where you can't get libncurses working properly without getting the .deb for both that package and the -devel?
<0> automagically: a lot of the packages are pretty small
<1> whats up?
<7> gnomefreak, do NOT put the whole thing. For example, type archive.ubuntu.com and then browse from there
<17> i was also curious why it takes 8 gigs of space
<9> ahhhhhhh
<17> on a fresh install
<21> Repos for dapper so I can do a dist-upgrade to it?
<9> ok brb
<0> !repos
<5> 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> I just tried it and it worked the way I explained, gnomefreak
<0> No1Viking: ^^^
<2> I don't know if it's even accepting my command... I can't see any input/output the display is so fskd
<9> !dapper
<5> The 6.04 version of Ubuntu will be the "Dapper Drake" release, due april 20, 2006. If you want to use it before then, be warned that it's not yet stable and may break. You get to keep/repair the pieces.
<21> Madpilot, thanks! :=
<1> check this out you all
<1> http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/users-guide/ch-iraus.en.html
<7> never mind, gnomefreak, ff won't open the .gz file. I remember there is a way in synaptic to view a single repo... Let me check it out. 5 secs
<1> and when people say, well you should run debian packages on ubuntu.. ubuntu is debian lmao .. just tweaked out. and have its database of mirror software available like a library.. hee.. just run stable.. packages.. and do what you would like..
<22> Ive had my hostname changed, in: etc/hosts/
<22> how do I change it back?
<23> hi guys. i have a question. i'm using fluxbox as my window manager and i don't know how to set the screen resolution. i tried to set it with gnome screen resolution app but when i log in again, the screen resolution resets on the same value
<4> Zoo: if you run debian packages on Ubuntu you can break things, Ubuntu is not the same as debian
<4> well it is
<1> the programmger/developer.. Benjamin Mako Hill, was part of the Debian GNU/Linux 3.1 bible, and also.. canocical .. hee.. a developer of ubuntu lmao
<4> but its not identical
<1> open source is what I tell it to do :-)
<1> Windows is the thing that breaks... :)
<1> get the point.... Windows...
<4> if you want to chat you should try #ubuntu-offtopic
<1> ;)
<0> Zoo: most of the Ubuntu/Canonical people are all Debian devs - that doesn't mean Ubuntu is identical to Debian...
<1> why.. because I have the ambition?
<1> geesh... :-)
<1> its like a monopoly.. starting to be eh> oh don't tell me..s oon ubuntu will become a proprietary vendor.. then I going use all the cd's like frisbies :-)
<1> thats like.. how i proved to some people , and Xandros, even sent them development builds. and what I had done to there OS, and they made me part of there beta tester team lmao
<4> if you want to talk drivel, goto #ubuntu-offtopic, this is the support channel
<15> there's a way to make an application to restart automatically after a crash?
<1> yes there is m4
<15> how?
<1> oh.. lmao if i want to talk drivel
<1> lmao.. I am just going go to a linux convention. and defcon :D
<11> m4ur1g10: what type of application?
<1> being an IT, systems engineer, that runs 6 operating Systems, and doesn't limit hiself lmao
<0> Zoo: you can also go to #ubuntu-offtopic...
