<3> how about the menus on the panel?
<11> is there a script that'll redetect my sound card?

<4> !firestarter
<12> Ubuntu has, like every other linux distribution, firewalling built into the kernel. A simple frontend to this firewall is firestarter, which can be installed via synaptic.
<7> booyah
<4> mediated: it only mentions firewalling, but I think it handles your task, too.
<7> is it a command line app?
<13> How do you setup sharing form one linux computer to another?
<4> mediated: no
<14> !shorewall
<12> Bugger all, I dunno. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, Ap4ch3
<4> daryl: see my conversation with mediated
<15> http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1003673#post1003673 - Wallpaper release

<4> !tell james__ about easyubuntu
<8> heh, figures get to the last step and i hit a brick wall
<17> scarn: when sudo asks you for the p***sword, you enter the same p***word you use when you log in.
<8> yes
<18> What package do I install for the Nvidia drivers?
<16> is easyubuntu to be found under on the add applications list?
<8> actually i typr sudo and i just get some lines of text. it doesnt ask for p***
<4> !tell Ap4ch3 about ubotu
<6> scarn: by the way... Do you know the PLF Sources for ubuntu. There you have a Sun Java package ;)
<19> hello
<20> james__: No.
<10> if you use dapper...via synaptic search nvidia...and latest drivers...



<19> ask: nautilus burn , informe about size of media ? if it overflo ?
<4> zdetton: nvidia-glx -- but follow the wiki advice:
<4> !tell zdetton about nvidia
<8> minimec..dont know about that
<6> scarn: mom
<17> bbl .. time for a fresh ubuntu install
<21> Hi all, if I say "sudo apt-get install ruby" on a fresh dapper flight 7 install, do I get ruby version 1.8.4?
<8> mom?
<6> scarn: deb http://packages.freecontrib.org/ubuntu/plf/ breezy free non-free
<22> !info ruby dapper
<12> ruby: (An interpreter of object-oriented scripting language Ruby), section interpreters, is optional. Version: 1.8.2-1 (dapper), Packaged size: 18 kB, Installed size: 96 kB
<7> firestarter says that my eth0 device is "not ready". What does this mean?
<22> m1ndsurfer: no (^^^)
<20> !easyubuntu
<21> So that would mean no. How do I get 1.8.4 then?
<6> scarn: add that to yout sources.list
<4> mediated: have you ***igned an IP address?
<4> m1ndsurfer: best to wait for it to be packaged.
<21> (I'd like to have everything running from its default package directory rather than installing manually from source)
<13> Shared Folders: I'm having troulbes accessing a shared folder on one ubuntu computer to another ubuntu computer. I can see the Microsoft Windows Shares, just not the ubuntu shares
<23> Input/output error
<23> after doing a cp /* for a backup of my system to my sata storage hard drive all of a sudden it mounted as read only
<24> what do i need to download to play video in firefox?
<24> apt-get rather?
<23> varsendagger: i recommend mplayer plugin
<25> or xine
<21> soundray: http://packages.ubuntu.com/dapper/interpreters/ruby1.8 implies it is... how do I get my apt-get to see that?
<6> varsendagger: vlc is working too
<4> jason2: is that what you entered, cp /* ?
<23> soundray: yes
<26> question, firefox closes on me when i click on links, and i have no idea why. does anybody have any thoughts?
<26> not all links, but every so often
<23> gimpyhtml: possibly a firefox plugin you have installed?
<27> ok, here is the original image: http://www.icewater.org/misc/grant-original.jpg
<4> m1ndsurfer: just 'sudo apt-get install ruby1.8'
<4> jason2, did you not give it a destination?
<23> soundray: cp /* /mnt/storage
<23> /mnt/storage is the sata hard drive i was talking about witch is read only now
<28> is my /opt supposed to be empty ??!!
<4> jason2: ah okay, I was worried for a sec.
<21> soundray: thanks, i didn't know what version that would actually get me.
<10> Mplayer is good program to watch videos....and that you can find in synaptic too...:)
<10> Totem is good too....but good to have codecs too...
<4> m1ndsurfer: it's a bit strange. Just install ruby gets you 1.8.2, ruby1.8 gets you 1.8.4. Check with apt-cache show
<4> jason2: you could try 'mount -o remount,rw /', but it's probably better to reboot.
<28> anyone ?
<4> skwid_: yes, unless you installed something into it explicitly.
<28> oh ok.. has it always been that way ?
<4> skwid_: yes
<23> soundray: i have rebooted many times it always mounts read only now
<29> hello.
<4> jason2: does the command work?
<23> soundray: the command above?
<4> jason2, yes
<28> anyone have an idea how i could get my hp laptop's button to do something on ubuntu ??
<28> i guess there are no drivers heh :(
<23> soundray: will this hurt the hd even more?
<23> soundray: should storage be mounted before i do this command?
<4> jason2: there is a risk involved. It would be better to diagnose exactly why it mounts readonly. But it's hard to do via IRC.
<30> !restricted formats
<12> rumour has it, restricted formats is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats or '!codecs'
<4> jason2: can you rephrase that?
<30> !codecs
<12> Binary only codecs (such as w32codecs) can be downloaded from plf or cipherfunk, see !easysource for details on these repositories
<23> soundray: maybe i should not use that command then
<30> jeese
<26> it's possible, but i've reinstalled and the same problem occurs
<30> !easysource
<12> For an easy to use custom sources.list creator, visit http://ubuntulinux.nl/source-o-matic
<21> Hmm. What's the best way of installing rails on dapper? Via apt-get install rails or via a manually-installed ruby gems?
<31> apt-get install
<4> jason2: well, you've got a backup, so the worst thing that could happen is that you have to reinstall and restore the data.
<30> !firefox 1.5
