<0> uhm
<0> "i know, but i didnt when i installed it"
<0> i didnt KNOW when i installed it, hehe
<1> venin , does it have your old settigs backed up if you want to undo it?
<0> eugman, not sure
<2> venin: hmm
<3> my ubuntu crashes sometimes... when I start like 5 programs, it starts loading slowly and slower by the second until it almost completely blocks and I have to reset
<3> why is that?
<1> I don't think it does but I may be wrong.
<4> mwe, now its work
<5> hi...what program can i use to convert flac to mp3? thanks
<2> dungodung: maybe it's using all your ram and starts trashing
<2> yuion: good
<2> well good night all ...
<3> well, I have 256, but still with WinXP it took much longer for it to crash
<6> thats great



<6> "took longer to crash
<6> "
<7> well, i didn't want it , so i tossed the package, and now can't remeber where i found it...
<8> wow, VLC player works really well straight out of the package
<9> wvelez: http://tuxspot.blogspot.com/2005/08/converting-flac-to-mp3.html
<9> wvelez: that took me 30 seconds on google
<1> Anyone know where I can get wine tools?
<1> !winetools
<3> anizee: what I mean is... I have to reset quite a few times a day and it can really become really slow, whereas with WinXP, I didn't have to reboot for weeks
<10> My cat's name is Mittens! Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, eugman
<1> Ubotu has a cat? interesting...
<10> eugman: Do they come in packets of five. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
<6> oh ok
<11> i'm running ubuntu-PPC on an iMac..since i've recently rearranged things i've decided to stick it in a closet and make it a server...of sorts...i'd like to change from runlevel 5 to 3...where can i modify that setting?
<9> eugman: I'd try google, thats most likely your best bet
<11> i don't really need it to boot into a GUI on boot.
<6> whats your proc
<9> DewDude: I believe its /etc/inittab, but the way that I do it is to remove the exectuable attribute on gdm in your start up scripts
<3> anizee: so how come ubuntu is so unreliable when it comes to this
<9> dungodung: kidding? I don't ever reboot my linux computer
<11> NickGarvey, i was looking around that and got confused...your way sounds like it'd work too
<6> Id say to check what your swap size is, and see if Ubuntu is dumping correctly
<9> DewDude: trick my linux user group leader taught me ;)
<3> NickGarvey: that's what I'd like to have at my disposal, but it's just not doable now
<11> haha...do i modify all my rc? scripts?
<9> dungodung: do you have swap space?
<11> i'm really rusty with linux
<3> anizee: oh.. I don't have swap... I thought that might be the prob
<9> DewDude: don't modify them, just chmod a-x gdm
<11> my imac is running dev release Breezy
<11> hrmm
<11> ok
<12> dungodung: whats your ram at?
<11> one more question..where's the gdm executable
<9> gnomefreak: 256 I believe
<3> gnomefreak: 78.3%
<9> DewDude: don't change the executable, just the start up script
<11> or do i just need to type that in command line
<11> ....ok
<12> anything 1 gig of ram or more you dont need it (ive heard+read)
<6> dungodung: how did U set up the drive
<12> dungodung: make a swap partition
<7> i may have missed it, but why do you want IE, eugman?
<9> DewDude: cd /etc/rc5.something
<12> you nee dit
<7> oh
<11> rc5.d
<11> gotcha
<9> DewDude: sudo chmod a-x gdm
<3> anizee: well I didn't use swap because I thought it was a bad doggie ;)
<11> ahhhhhhhhhhhh
<6> dungodung, Id put in a gig swap
<11> it clicked into place
<9> dungodung: that would be why..
<3> but seriously, I have only NTFS partitions... is swap doable in those conditions?
<6> dungodung, without it, ubuntu is gonna run out of ram too quickly
<12> swap should be atleast 2X your ram
<7> really!
<7> oh my!
<13> hi, what's command in the terminal to get al my system info (kernel, themes, icons, etc)..?



<14> you can use a swapfile.
<6> gnomefreak, I agree up to 1 gig of memory
<15> mc|amb, there is noe command
<15> single*
<6> then there is less of a need
<3> can someone point me to a place where it is thoroughly described how to enable it
<11> ok, danke Nick...when the box reboots, i'll let you know
<12> anizee: correct
<3> or is someone willing to do it with me
<9> DewDude: :)
<13> thrice, then how do I get, i've seen screenshots with the terminal displaying that kind of info
<6> dungodung, your gonna need to partition and format it
<9> !swap
<10> somebody said swap was used to put unused programs out of memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SwapFaq
<9> dungodung: check that link out ^
<3> sure will. thanks
<11> i got another hour of downloading left
<3> anizee: oh.. I'm afraid that won't be possible...
<15> mc|amb, well; uname -a will give kernel, cat /proc/cpuinfo will give cpu stuff, free -m will give memory...um
<6> dungodung, then add an old 1 gig drive to the box
<9> dungodung: yeah my swap is on an old HD
<13> thrice`, ok, thanks
<12> dungodung: you can just add swap space to a new partiton he didnt mean format the harddrive
<6> dungodung, hell take a damaged drive and partition the swap around the bad area
<16> Hey guys, is there some way to make Wine have more support?
<3> gnomefreak: I have about 4 gigs left on this partition that's being used for linux. can I add 1 gig for swap here?
<6> gnomefreak, yea sorry
<3> andrey: I don't have any more room in my rack ;)
<6> dungodung, not likely, but possible
<17> Does anyone know how I can find out dependency problems for .deb packages?
<18> hmm this 1 gig hd swap thing is interesting is there a wiki that explains how to do this?
<17> please
<9> !tell IdleOne about swap
<16> Which would you suggest Xwine or wine
<18> thank you
<6> gots to go!!
<17> I got it nvm
<19> ok guys

<25> i need to talk with someone about allegro instalation on ubuntu... plz pvt-me
<16> Thanks
<24> Ubugtu: you can allso look to linux-gamers.com if there is linux native binary ro something
<26> For gaming, cedega seems like a good idea, however if you don't want to pay money, with a little work, you can get a lot of stuff to run reliably on wine
