<0> I heard of dosbox
<0> and freedos, but don't know which to try
<1> i don't use rhythmbox, it opens whenever i connect my psp. how can i stop this
<2> when apt-get says that it suggest packages and will install other packages is there an option for it to install the suggested options without just doing an apt get on them afterwards?
<3> mDot: system > preferences > removable drives and media
<1> _jason thanks
<4> GTroy, i've had good experiences with DOSbox on mac os x
<4> GTroy, so that's what i'd recommend you try.
<0> thanks eobanb
<0> sounds good
<5> what program is available to rip vhs tapes to hard drive? I have an ATI all-in-wonder
<4> ddonky, so you want to record analogue video?
<5> eobanb - yes from my vcr
<4> well what options does your card have for video-in
<6> ddonky: what vard?
<6> card
<4> some sort of ati all-in-wonder.
<5> paradizelost - an old ati... rage 128 aiw
<6> i have had VERY spotty luck with the AIW's.
<6> that may work.
<6> the new ones, like i have, don't....
<7> hey here's a dumb question .. I seem to of installed IE6 with winetools on my system, but i don't know how to launch it lol ^^"
<5> someone in another caht room recommended 'tvtime'
<4> ddonky, looks like your card is supported fairly well
<4> http://gatos.sourceforge.net/supported_cards.php
<5> yep, there's mine...All-in-Wonder Rage128 Pro 32mb
<4> ddonky, http://packages.ubuntu.com/breezy/misc/gatos
<4> ddonky, you should just have to enable universe and apt-get install gatos
<5> eobanb - ok thanks!
<8> anyone know why compiz doesnt show up in gconf?
<6> Trashcan: you using dapper or breezy?
<8> dapper latest
<6> !xgl
<9> XGL on Ubuntu: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/XglHowto - Join #ubuntu-xgl for all the XGL fun on Ubuntu systems. It works ONLY on dapper. Pretty videos on http://www.novell.com/linux/xglrelease/
<4> Trashcan, try #ubuntu-xgl
<8> thanks bra
<5> wow, looks like I can watch over the air TV too
<4> dont see why not, ddonky
<10> for a full channel, this place has been quiet a lot lately
<11> dont' spose anyone knows when a package for Vim 7 will be avail?
<6> Abnix: i know i want it to be soon...
<12> Abnix: unlikely for Dapper, since we release in under one month.
<11> )o:
<10> wouldn't checkinstall make a usable package?
<6> but vim7 is out now.....
<10> the pleasure/pain of a rational release process
<13> does anyone know how to keep console fonts to say 80x43?
<14> How do I run commands?
<14> Dumb questions..but I gotta run pppconfig
<15> Chad: Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal
<14> thank you
<16> which version of Ubuntu can see 8GB RAM with the default (SMP) kernel?
<17> hello...
<15> ^r
<15> hi jijie
<10> bimberi, the option isn't in the menu
<8> new question- ive got an X server running on display 0, and one on display 1
<18> how does ubuntu update? Will I have to manually install Dapper, or will it be automatic?
<8> how do i kill both and start a fresh one on display 0?
<10> Trashcan, log out of each
<8> well
<8> one is locked up
<8> :)
<4> i dont know whether we should mark the occasion of a significant number of ubuntu users not knowing about gnome-terminal as a milestone indicative of the progress of linux, or quite the reverse; users simply knowing less and less about the computers they rely on.
<19> wizzlefish: not automatic... but you don't hav eto reinstall... just run apt-get dist-upgrade
<6> Trashcan: or you can CTRL+ALT+F2, log in, and sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
<8> hm
<10> Trashcan, log out of the one that isn't, then sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
<18> ok bwlang, and it won't destroy any of the software I installed or my personal files?
<8> that's what i did, it gave a warning about x server found on display 0 and started a new one on display 1, so i have two running :\
<8> i'll do that though. i think it's just that i forgot to log out of this one
<19> wizzlefish: not unless something goes badly wrong.
<4> wizzlefish, it will update software you already have installed, and it won't touch personal files
<10> Trashcan, then after logout, and in the F2 terminal, killall Xorg
<18> thank you eobanb_ and bwlang - Dapper looks promising...
<17> hi tomb, hows ur day?
<4> wizzlefish, yes; i'm running it right now and must say, it's quite polished
<6> nickrud: i've had it not finish the restart if you do the /etc/init.d/gdm restart from a terminal in X
<6> if you use screen to run it, then its fine
<8> it said it found a server running on display 1
<8> then when i hit ok, it said unrecognized command: vt9
<10> paradizelost, never saw that, but I can imagine it
<8> failed to start x server
<8> and theres still a locked up screen on console 7
<10> Trashcan, clt-alt-f2, login, then sudo killall gdm (harsh, I know)
<8> lol ok
<8> :)
<8> any reason you use f2 instead of f1?
<5> hmmm - ubunti didn't recornize my tv card. videoinput: Cannot open capture device /dev/video0: No such dev
<6> Trashcan: force of habit
<8> lol ok
<10> Trashcan, because it was mentioned by someone else :)
<6> F1-F6 should be the same
<4> ddonky, did you install gato
<6> !gatos
<9> paradizelost: NO SPEAKE ENLISH! Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
<4> gatos, i mean
<0> eobanb: I've installed dosbox, how do you get to command prompt?>
<5> eobanb - yes, with apt-get, you mean?
<4> yes
<5> eobanb - do i have to run it or something?
<6> well all, time to call it a night. bday party tomorrowl!!!!
<0> h.bday paradizelost
<8> still same problem - after killall gdm it killed my current working session and left the other
<4> ubotu, gatos is a driver for ATI All-In-Wonder cards. To install it, enable universe and sudo apt-get install gatos
<9> eobanb_: okay
<4> !gatos
<9> I guess gatos is a driver for ATI All-In-Wonder cards. To install it, enable universe and sudo apt-get install gatos
<8> the one in question is just a grey/white/black screen with the little spinning "please wait" cursor
<6> Trashcan: killall -9 X
<0> eobanb_: could you tell me how to get to dosbox prompt?
<8> right on
<8> bbl
<6> note the ^ capital X
<8> yea
<4> GTroy, what happens when you just run dosbox
<8> X: no process killed <-- lawl
<20> where would be a good place to manual install applications ?
<20> /usr/?
<0> eobanb_ that's it, I don't know how to
<4> skwid_, probably /opt
<4> GTroy, type 'dosbox' ?
<0> dosbox at command prompt command not found
<20> eobanb: i thought that was for config
<4> GTroy, did you sudo apt-get install dosbox
<0> I installed from source
<4> GTroy, why?
<0> eh....
<4> ...what?
<0> pffth
<0> I dunno, I usually install source first
<8> oh duh, Xorg
<4> GTroy, okay....
<8> if i disappear it worked :D
<4> GTroy, i suggest you just install it through apt
<0> eobanb_ doing that now
<5> eobanb - do I have to reboot to get all the gatos goodness?
<4> ddonky, you might have to
<5> k
<21> how do i select my monitor?
<4> ddonky, i wouldnt think you would have to, but if it isnt working, then that's what i'd try doing
<20> eobanb: isnt it ?
<4> skwid_, what?
<20> eobanb: i thought that was for config (/opt)
<4> GTroy, can i ask you why you usually install programmes mostly from source?
<4> skwid_, /etc is for configuration files
<0> eobanb_: mostly out of habit
<4> GTroy, that's completely unnecessary on just about all modern distros
