<2> when installing breezy. and using the FN keys on my keyboard to change volume. it worked. and I got this little popup telling me how load it was in a progress bar. its gone now.. anyone know how to get it back? or what packages it is controlling that
<0> thanks bimberi !!!
<3> Nameeater: I know what should be written there, but not how to change it
<4> leart: np :)

<9> Does anyone know how I go about removing my 3 obsolete kernels that are jsut taking space on my PC?
<1> wish you sure could all visit Peoria :(
<6> Oxymoron: or is what your looking not in there?
<1> Felix
<1> people with vision .. rock..
<3> Nameeater: unable to look up
<8> too
<10> tiede: find them in Synaptic
<1> hee
<9> oh, I feel dumb! Thanks Madpilot!
<11> i think there is a kanotix script for removing kernels
<6> Oxymoron: thats the error..? unable to look up? look up what? :x
<12> sudo apt-key add -
<12> do i need a key number ith that
<1> want to see me add root back into ubuntu .. :D
<3> nameeater sudo: unable to lookup acer-e2bd42ae via gethostbyname()
<1> root logon.. that is.. :D
<6> err.. that doesn't sound healthy
<1> its open source.. open minded.. free will :-)
<12> zoo thats simple
<13> hello everybody
<1> well.. gee here. we got.. err.. that doesn't sound healthy. then we got.. zoo thats simple :)
<13> has anyone of you had a problem with a usb memory stick, that it mysteriously seems to get "filled" with nothing and mounting it becomes impossible?
<12> sudo p***wd root
<2> s
<8> i have p***word
<1> yeah I know its simple.. its all about choice.. just like Agent Smith was like.. Mr Andersand, why do you keep persisting, why ! why! , he said.. its simple... because I choose to :)
<14> anybody knows any good, online programming language tutorials?
<8> and created user while installing, am I admin?
<3> nameeater any idea?
<6> I'm a bit lost, http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2002/10/msg05148.html sounds like a similar error
<10> _Felix: yes - when Ubuntu asks for a p***word, use the pw you created on install
<8> but, am I admin
<3> nameeater ah just like that
<15> hello. has anybody succesfully compiled gnome-commander 1.1.6 on ubuntu breezy?
<16> _Felix: what are you trying to do?
<10> _Felix: your account has sudo/admin power - have a look here: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo
<17> p0mppu: you probably fill the trash - the trash folder is hidden
<9> I also had to make a backup of one to enable the battery gauge on my laptop. If I just remove the two kernel images I created (copied from another one) will that uninstall it for me?
<13> mandavi: it got filled under MS Windows
<13> so there should not be any trash folder shoudln't there?
<17> p0pmppu: i don't know about windows but just take a look for hidden files and foders
<6> Oxymoron: did you ever do sudo p***wd/sudo p***wd root ?
<18> p0mppu: when i delete stuff from my usb stick, it's not really deleted. it's moved to a hidden .Trash directory on the stick. which is annoying
<3> nope
<16> ppd: is there a reason you didnt grab gnome-commander from the repos?
<3> nameeater: nope
<16> man sudo
<6> ah i think this will be a bit of a pain
<15> gnomefreak: wanted to try the gnome2 version
<6> Oxymoron: you may need to use a livecd to edit the right files
<19> anyone experienced with vmware?
<18> !anyone
<20> probably 90% of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? <hint>
<3> nameeater: ok, how do I do that?
<9> p0mppu, just enable direct deleting and then when you delete a file from the usb stick, press Shift+delete instead of just delete.
<6> Oxymoron: or try the recovery option when you boot up and see if you can edit it that way
<3> ok
<6> tho i don't think you can as you still won't have root access
<6> gnomefreak: can I ask your opinion on Oxymoron's problems?
<8> !deb
<20> To install a deb: sudo dpkg -i filename.deb
<19> I am dual booting currently but am tired of rebooting again and again to switch between windows and linux, so i installed vmware. Now is there a way to boot my windows partition using vmware?
<16> Nameeater: shoot
<13> tiede: the problem is, it's been used under Windows where no such .Trash exists. I tried to mount it under Linux afterwards, which won't work
<16> Oxymoron: what are you trying to do?
<6> gnomefreak: his friend messed with his host info and now when tries to edit it (sudo nano /etc/hosts) he gets the same error as: http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2002/10/msg05148.html he also hasn't setup root by doing sudo p***wd root, so he won't be able to su - and edit the file, is his only option to use say a LiveCD and edit the file?
<21> #cumbria_lug
<22> what FTP server would you suggest me (only for LAN)
<16> give me a sec im pulling the error ip now
<22> :)
<23> does anyone know how to set the browser environment value?
<23> so it will always open firefox
<3> gnomefreak; my friend changed in etc/hosts
<6> owner: sys/something/prefered apps its around there
<6> it should be set to firefox anyway
<23> but not all apps work
<16> the fix is in that page echo "hostname" back into /proc/sys/kernel/hostname
<24> Hi, i want to start a python program at bootup. So i created a dir /etc/rc.boot and made a file sabnzbd.sh, in that file i just entered the command to execute the program. What did i do wrong?
<23> i meant something you could set in /etc/environment
<3> gnomefreak; what do you mean?
<6> gnomefreak: can you do that with out root?
<9> p0mppu, I don't understand, my .Trash folder always appeard under windows (it's been a while though, so...) I would recommand checking the disk for errors. Is there a folder or file that lost its info (i.e even the name has been altered)
<4> happycamper: vsftpd is in ubuntu's main repository. proftpd seems to get recommended a lot too
<16> im thinking its just a user command it may look like $echo hostname /proc/sys/kernel/hostname (seeing as you cant add your name to that file without sudo that (im thinking) is only way. not sure on the command itself but seems right
<13> tiede: as far as I know, that .Trash appears after the stick's been mounted under Linux. Now this stick has never before been used in Linux, only in Windows. So that probably can't be the problem..it got filled (or scrambled) under Windows
<22> hmm
<22> k
<6> echo hostname > /proc/sys/kernel/hostname ?
<16> with echo command if it doesnt work it will say whatever you typed
<16> Nameeater: yes
<3> nameeater: let me know if you get an awnser
<16> hostname being the users hostname
<22> i test it
<17> p0mppu: why don't you save all data in windows and format the stick in linux and than copy back...
<6> yea
<4> CoolKast: i'm not certain but i don't think debian (& hence ubuntu) work that way. You could call your program from /etc/init.d/bootmisc.sh
<6> try that Oxymoron
<3> give me clear instructions :) new to ubuntu
<16> or heres another easy way use the live cd to add your hostname to the original file that is was deleted from and please do yourself a big fav dont give anyone access to sudo
<6> try echo hostname > /proc/sys/kernel/hostname
<6> gnomefreak: thats what i said before! ;)
<16> lol
<6> im pretty sure that person on the debian post would have had su/root access which is what Oxymoron is lacking atm
<16> btw if the echo works add your name back to /etc/hosts
<6> and also check out /etc/hostname
<16> Nameeater: he didnt
<6> he didn't have sudo
<3> accec denied
<25> guys, how do you do a raw CD copy???
<16> sudo=unable to look up host name
<6> but he may have had su or been able to log in as root
<25> i think i have a corrupted CD, and i'm trying to copy it
<6> Oxymoron: you will have to boot with a livecd and edit it that way
<16> faisal_d: if you have corrput cd dont copy it man
<25> gnomefreak, why? it has files that i need :(
<16> faisal_d: how many corrupt cds would you like to make?
<25> oh, it's like that!!!
<25> i thought i might be able to slavage it somehow
<3> nameeater, when I boot the live cd, what should I do then?
<16> faisal_d: copying/burning doesnt fix cds it copies same problem to new cd
<26> Has anyone gotten the new vmware server to run on Ubuntu 5.10 with -2.6.12-9-amd64-generic kernel?
<6> im actually not sure as I havn't done it my self
<25> damn.... k, thanx gnomefreak
<16> yw
<6> quux: is the vmware server 64bit capable?
<18> gnomefreak: i've fixed audio cds by making new copies
<27> how can I get mplayer to stretch the video and not just the window?
<26> Nameeater: yes
<6> hmm no idea then :)
<16> faisal_d: are the packages on the cd corrupt?
<28> MASH4077: in the /etc/mplayer/mplayer.conf , zoom = yes
<24> (bimberi): i read it on the ubuntu forums, but ill try this. So i just append at the end of bootmisc.sh the command to start that program?
<26> Nameeater: I seem to be running into some missing files in Ubunto x64
<29> hey guys
