Comments:
<0> isn't it crash happy?
<1> single user mode/terminal mode on yaboot/PPC install?
<2> blackeyes: in Linux? Wait for the boot: prompt and enter 'Linux single'
<3> do you know how to get more video ram shared ?
<3> there's no option in my bios for it
<4> 1600x1200 geforce2 64 meg card, xgl+compiz works like a charm. and darn stable too! 3 weeks now.
<4> hasn;t crashed even once!
<0> freakabcd: using gnome i ***ume?
<4> well, for a while i used kde too
<1> cafuego: that didn't work
<3> why arn't you using aiglx
<2> Klick_: a 7800 uses more power than an AMD X2 *plus* two harddisks <heh>
<5> I thought I was going to like KDE, then ended up not
<5> < prefers gnome
<6> You guys
<2> blackeyes: Didn't work how?
<4> whyvas, ooii.. on this 855gm crap aiglx is the only thing usable.
<0> kde's sftp:// doesn't crash where as nautilus' sftp:// does so it makes the choice for me
<4> xgl is just darn slow/flickery, etc.
<3> ah
<7> yipe: try fluxbox
<1> cafuego: it's loading the ubuntu/gnome graphical screen
<1> i just want a terminal login
<5> I'm happy where I am as fas as X
<6> Im having no luck on setting up the Launcher
<2> blackeyes: Oh well, hit alt-f1
<6> Can somebody give me the command
<3> blackeyes, hit ctrl+alt+f4
<6> wine /blah/blah/name_of_file.exe
<5> but what was that ctrl alt f1 thing supposed to do?
<6> Please?
<4> bur[n]er, thing is compiz is a window manager, i.e. you run it in kde, it replaces kwin, you run it in gnome, it replaces metacity
<8> What's the quickest way to find out system info (I'm looking for RAMtype)
<1> alt-F1 did it
<8> *RAM type
<1> thanks guys
<2> Das|Busy: check mobo specs on manufacturer website.
<0> freakabcd: awww, didn't know it replaces kwin... thought it was only a metacity replacement
<3> Das|Busy, crack the case.
<2> Das|Busy: Or tell us what CPU you have and we'll guess ;-)
<4> nope. its a window manager replacement.
<9> Das|Busy: The RAM module should have a 'specs' sticker
<3> specs?
<3> jesus
<4> so whatever window manager you have running at the moment, it will try to replace it
<9> specifications
<3> just look at the damn stick
<10> I need wireless-tools 28pre9 but the only package on packages.ubuntu.com is 28pre8
<1> whyvas: what was that fsck type command you said to use earlier?
<4> whyvas, what if he can;t open up the box?
<8> whyvas cafuego: Isn't there a way to check computer side? I could on windows.
<8> PuMpErNiCkLe: How do I get to that
<9> whyvas: That doesn't give info like timing :p
<11> !ispconfig
<12> BlankC: Bugger all, I dunno. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
<3> freakabcd, then he shouldn't be using linux
<2> Das|Busy: You could try read-edid
<0> Das|Busy: device manager? ;)
<4> bur[n]er, who said anything about switching?
<11> !web-cp
<12> BlankC: What? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
<3> go into the bios or fire up memtest
<4> i run the xgl or aiglx server manually then run whatever gnom/kde i want.
<13> I'm getting a blank screen after the install completes and reboots. any ideas?
<2> lm-sensors may also tell you what's in there
<3> blackeyes, that's to check your partition
<14> !reposities
<12> Did you get hit by a windmill? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, Aeudian
<4> most of the time though (on the laptop), i'm on e17 cvs with plain xorg

<0> e17? ewww... to each their own though ;)
<4> what?
<15> is wine the only software for emulating in linux?
<5> cedega is another one
<1> does anyone know how to byp*** a powerbook's LCD at boot to use an external LCD?
<4> e17 is frickin amazing for me.
<0> i can't find e17 usable... it's pretty, but not practical for me
<5> but.... doesn't it have trouble in ubuntu/debian?
<0> Thinkl00p: nope... crossover office
<9> Thinkl00p: You can also run entire OS instances in Qemu, Bochs, or Xen
<16> freakabcd: e17 is pretty awesome
<1> the external flickers and shows some txt for a split second, but then goes away
<0> Thinkl00p: or vmware
<3> vmware is the ****
<8> PuMpErNiCkLe: I see no RAM in the device manager, though I do see Processer, does it go by another name
<4> huh? i don;t think its pretty. actualy it looks like crap to me sometimes. but don't say a bad word about functionality
<15> bur[n]er, vmware makes you install the entire OS inside linux right? I just want to emu certain apps like pokerstars, bearshare, office xp etc..
<3> i have to pee
<4> its complete for me. though sometimes i like one or 2 new features they add slowly
<0> freakabcd: it doesn't have a filemanager ;) or if it does, does it do sftp:// smb://
<17> Install ubuntu on a hard drive with a computer that has no issues. then use the hard drive to test and install the ubuntu os on your problematic pc
<3> bearshare and office xp??
<0> Thinkl00p: your best bets are wine, cedega, or crossover office
<0> bearshare? wtf
<3> use gtk-gnutella and open office
<15> gtk-gnutella ain't that hot ****
<15> i got limewire as well
<4> haha.. whoever said: if i use kde, i must not use gnome apps. If i use gnome, i must not use kde apps
<8> PuMpErNiCkLe: ?
<4> think man!
<5> I couldn't get gtk-gnutella to connect, so I switched to limwire
<18> Thinkl00p, Really? gtk-gnutella = the most popular p2p at the moment.
<9> Das|Busy: I don't think device manager lists RAM.
<0> freakabcd: it's just slow if you don't to load all those libs
<13> I'm getting a blank screen after the install completes and reboots. any ideas?
<4> if i want to really use a file manager, i just run nautilus or konqi
<15> i got wine installed and xwine but she won't install a .exe file
<9> Das|Busy: I think it lists only more 'active' devices.
<6> FRAHAHHA
<18> Thinkl00p, *rather* whatever network Limewire\Frostwire connects too
<19> Can i change the default text color applications like firefox use on menus?
<4> err.. what libs?
<16> who needs a file manager? isn't that what the terminal is for :)
<8> PuMpErNiCkLe: Then is there a way to find out what type it is without cracking the case in ubuntu?
<20> ok night guys
<5> limwire/frostwire connect to the gnutella network
<0> LathropWells: it has to do with your gtk theme (***uming gnome)
<3> quit being a bitch and crack the case
<4> kde apps only for the first start from e take a while cos it duns the dcopserver, etc.
<3> or run memtest
<7> lutra: long live MC
<5> whyvas, be polite, please
<15> oh yeah? k im good then without getting bearshare
<20> !language whyvas
<3> memtest should be in your grub boot menu
<12> I don't know, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, arrick
<15> there a ubuntu documentation on wine?
<20> !language
<12> Please watch your language. We try to be nice and help but some of us don't like to see such things on our screen.
<0> freakabcd: i'm learning to live with KDE + firefox + thunderbird :)
<19> After installing a dark colored theme most desktop widgets look great. but, leave secondary apps wiht neaarly invisible text on option menus.
<8> whyvas: I'm not 'being a b****' I just want to know without turning of the computer, and what is memtest?
<4> bur[n]er, see..
<16> Rug: mc is pretty cool
<9> Das|Busy: Nothing I can think of, although I'm sure there's a way.
<3> leave the computer on, open the case.......
<21> Das|Busy: memtest tests your memory to check for bad spots
<7> lutra: Do you know of a working version of Xtree-Gold ?
<9> Das|Busy: memtest is a program that checks if your RAM is still performing properly - it write specific patterns to memory, then reads them back and checks if they're the same
<8> Then I guess I'm shutting off, and opening it up :|
<16> rug: i've never heard of xtree-gold
<3> look at ram sticks, if it has 1 notch, ddr, if it has 2 notches sdram
<5> Xtree-gold?..... wasn't that a semi-gui for DOS?
<5> wow I haven't thought of that prog in YEARS
<2> whyvas: what cpu you got?
<13> yipe: yes
