<0> danfg: copy icons in /usr/share/.... / .,, /
<1> thanks man :)
<2> Hello everybody
<3> [0x90]: hardware ethernet 00:00:00:00:00:00; needs to be changed to the correct mac for the machine getting the adresses, same with router and nameservers
<4> u01p2101: the programs still use the ugly ones on their windows and taskbar
<5> bernard_tux: hi
<1> slackern, how do i get mine mac address?
<1> i am using an crossover cable to connect to mine xbox
<2> does someone know the differences btw ubuntu iso of cdrom and dvd ?
<6> hi people, I'm working to get xgl up and I just modified a /xsessions desktop config file, and now thunar (I'm using xubuntu) says it's "suspected malware."
<3> [0x90]: well on what machine do you want you mac adress?
<7> bernard_tux, the DVD has more on it
<3> [0x90]: phone
<1> slackern, on mine
<6> I think it needs to be executable, but chmod 755 doesn't seem to change the malware designation
<1> ok



<8> does anyone have display sleep working with xgl?
<6> will it be able to run if I start that session?
<0> rename firefox.png to enother, and save your icon as firefox.png
<4> u01p2101: i'll try that, thanks :)
<9> hey everybody. i hope someone can help me with a software raid problem
<10> Wow! the synergy package *rocks*! I've got two computers with separate displays controlled by the keyboard/mouse of the first computer!
<11> 'oh the humanity.. of an ugly icon!' :P
<12> lol.
<11> ic56, yep - it can be handy
<13> psypher - Maybe. I've been fighting with software raid for 2days
<13> no progress, but i can empathize
<10> Dr_Willis: do you use it?
<11> ic56, i had it on my laptop.. then when upstairs witht he laptop wonderd why the mouse kept moveing.. (wife was downstairs on the other pc)
<11> :)
<12> Hehe
<14> http://ubuntustudio.com/wiki/index.php/Devel:Setting_Default_Soundcard
<14> i ask again
<10> Dr_Willis: hilarious!
<14> i also tought about asking on the mailing list but for such a simple question it's not needed
<12> i remember i had a tablet pluged in, And the mouse kept going back to where it is on the tablet i was like ARRRGH
<14> what happens if i choose a different sound card here
<14> is that related to esd or alsa
<0> danfg: send me please your variant of firefox icon
<15> *nag* (; im running xfce4 on my "server", when i try to add the applet "network monitor" and enters the device "eth0" i get an error "interface was not found" and thats the device im using, should it say something else there?
<13> okay i have to reboot and try something
<13> back in bit
<9> cool. i have 2 pc's one with a 5 disk raid 5 array running centos 4 with a 386 kernel. is it possible to move that array over to a new bigger server running dual p3 and running the smp kernel on ubuntu dapper
<9> and ofcourse keeping all the data and the raid intact
<9> i have simulated the whole thing in vmware but cannot get ubuntu to detct the raid properly
<16> hi pals !!
<17> God i feel so stupid right now, but i just ran mkfs -t vfat on a harddrive containing all my data. How would one go about restoring this data, without restoring to another disk? (since i don't have any other disk which matches it in capacity)
<16> is tehe captive the best options to write in NTFS files
<4> u01p2101: http://soeren-weber.net/data/2005/09/06/firefox.png
<16> is the captive the best options to write in NTFS files
<18> rigonatti: it doesn't work w/ ubuntu apparently
<10> Gistybit: you mean you overwrote your data and want to want to reconstruct it?
<19> vmware + smbfs is a safe bet... but it takes alot of resources :)
<3> [0x90]: sorry friend got harddrive crash so helping him on phone.
<17> ic56: i dont think it's overwritten.. because mkfs probably just ran a "quickformat"
<16> orbin: do you know some solution to ?
<1> :O
<6> I have another challange for you guys: I have NTFS, I reformat into ext3. Now, since they're really only writing a partition table... the data is still *theoretically* there, right? :)
<4> u01p2101: http://soeren-weber.net/data/2005/09/06/thunderbird.png
<20> hey all. what's happend to 'apt-setup' ? how do I configured ubuntu to use online sources rather hten my CD media?
<18> rigonatti: ext3 + fs-driver in windows, or fat32
<1> slackern, how do i download the server?
<1> i did apt-get install dhcp
<11> pookey, edit the sources.list and comment out the cdrom
<18> ubotu: tell pookey about sources
<16> I dont really want to use fat32
<21> can anyone tell me the difference between fglrx-driver and xorg-driver-flgrx?
<16> i mean ..its a waste of clusters and all .
<1> slackern, can i pm you?
<10> AK8: no. formatting has nothing to do with the partition table. It has to do with creating the inode tables, free lists, root directory and so on. As a result, *many* *many* sectors were overwritten when you formatted the partition with ext3 filesystem
<13> so testing grub yet again
<20> oh, why was apt-setup removed? :)
<22> thanks
<6> ic56: I see...
<13> by booting off the ide, but in the menu.lst swapping hd0 and hd1
<13> to see if that works
<13> take bets



<13> holy **** it did
<13> WOOOOH
<16> orbin: this should work ??? http://sourceforge.net/projects/linux-ntfs/
<13> what a pain
<23> file-roller does not seem to be in my menus in gnome. how can i add it to accessories ?
<10> Gistybit: I don't know what a quickformat is. Perhaps you are right. However, even if that is the case, you will still have a lot of work to refind your files, since at the very least the root directory is gone. You'll need a filesystem editor that is aware of VFAT.
<18> rigonatti: that doesn't provide write access
<24> Lord_Pall, less of the language please - it is a G rated channel, and please don't use enterh after one line with two words in it, put in all your thoughts on one line
<18> rigonatti: and it's already installed...you can mount an ntfs partition no?
<13> oops. Sorry about that. Excessive jubilance due to resolving a 2 day old issue
<12> G rated?
<25> I got crazy networking problems. Can someone hold my hand and walk me through it. Here are details, kinda http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=194056
<26> yeah. rated G for Ghey
<26> :P
<27> avis: check out the menu editor - you can probably jsut check the box for it in that
<18> kieranDOA: yep. so put that back in your pants please :P
<12> No no, What i s 'G' Rated?
<28> I'm going to run dualboot Ubuntu/Vista.. Installing Vista first.. Is it ok for me, to setup my partition using Vista's partition app?
<12> Is that some kind of american rating system?
<27> avis: I think it would be under system tools though
<12> Crazy americans.
<9> Gistybit: http://www.linux.org/docs/ldp/howto/Ext2fs-Undeletion-4.html
<5> Scorpmoon: yes; if not, shrink it later with Ubuntu
<17> ic56: hm .. ok
<17> psypher246: thx.. ill take a look at it
<28> ok
<28> should both the Vista and the Ubuntu partition be primary?
<29> does anyone know what happened to amarok-gstreamer?
<26> burepe2, for future refeence, including only the relevant info makes it a lot easier to look through.
<10> Scorpmoon: Linux doesn't care whether its partitions are primary or not.
<30> Ignite: replaced by amarok-xine
<25> oh the dmesg?
<28> ic56, what would you choose
<29> Hobbsee, they can co-exist.. can't they?
<30> Ignite: they should do...
<10> Scorpmoon, I choose primary partitions for the root filesystem of each OS. Just so I know where to look for it when things are broken.
<31> psypher246 / Gistybit: you can't undelete on ext3
<23> thank you so much thoreauputic you always are so kind
<23> ls
<27> avis: no problem :)
<23> sorry
<23> thank you
<29> does anyone know how i can get mp3 support in xine?
<28> ic56, I have one harddisk... 160gb, how many partitions do I make? 1 for Ubuntu, 1 for Vista, and 1 vFat for sharing files between them.. Don't I need a small partition for GRUB loader?
<30> !tell Ignite about mp3
<5> Ignite: please read the FAQ first :)
<27> Ignite: install libxine-extracodecs
<29> thanks :D
<32> psypher246: (I wasn't in the room so I didn't see your question) What sort of data have you lost and how important is it ?
<32> Scorpmoon: It's not neccessary. It's a good idea to break the Linux installation in 3 parts, a / partition, a small swap and a /home .
<17> sladen: Okay, but the data originally written on the drive, was written through ext2 and not ext3, even though the data is ext3.. ( i know this is against the purpose of journalling)
<10> Scorpmoon: grub doesn't need its own partition. However, the more important question, is how do you do backups. Since in both Linux and Windows, 1 partition = 1 filesystem and since, typically one does backups on a per-filesystem basis, you need your partitions to be small enough that they will fit in your backup media.
<17> sladen: i figure, since the drive has not been reformatted, i could restore the partition table, and just flip all the inodes back from its "deleted" state
<28> newtrinom***... for now (being inside Vista's partitioner) it is sufficient to make one big partition for Ubuntu.. and let Ubuntu divide that partition in 3 itself, right?
<28> if that's at all possible
<33> Firefox crashes when I close a tab with a Youtube movie. Why would that happen?
<27> Scorpmoon: just leave free unformatted space for Ubuntu
<28> ic56, I do backups per file/folder.. i never do a full copy
<28> thoreaputic, ahh
<27> Scorpmoon: by default the installer just uses / and swap
<34> hi, I'm going to do a dist-upgrade, but it says that it is going to REMOVE some packages. These include openoffice and KDE, and I need them. Why is it going to remove these packages ?
<10> Scorpmoon: the other consideration is the possibility of corruption. The bigger teh filessytem, the more things you will lose if it becomes corrupt (eg due to a power failure of disk crash).
<27> akudewan: to replace them with newer versions :)
<27> akudewan: look at the list - you should see thatthey will be replaced
<28> i'm not too worried of having to reinstall an OS.. it's mainly my data (media, projects, etc.) I need safe
<5> akudewan: please make sure that you are following the upgrade instructions properly (FAQ).
<5> akudewan: otherwise you can quite easily bork your system
