Comments:

<0> DarthButcher: look it up in the wiki, and see if you can spot what chipset/drivers it uses
<1> CanYouHelpMePlz, noclip: use 'sudo -s' instead of sudo su
<2> DarthButcher: is that 'no' in the sense of 'yes'? ;)
<2> DarthButcher: what is the cardbus card?
<3> That is extremely odd.
<3> It is listed in working out of the box.
<4> is anyone here using dapper?
<3> But, it doesn't let me connect.
<3> I will try again.
<3> I am using Breezy.
<5> _jason: thanks for the info :-)
<6> hello
<5> noclip: also
<7> _jason: is there a difference between sudo -s and sudo -i? (i've been using sudo -i in the past)
<2> DarthButcher: what wifi card?
<3> D-Link DWL-G650

<6> im trying to get init 3 so i can install the nvidia driver

<1> noclip: do the 'printenv' command after each and you'll see the difference
<2> instabin: sudo telinit 3
<1> ubotu: tell instabin about nvidia
<6> thank you
<3> Should I activate interface "ath0"
<3> I just activated it, again.
<3> It didn't work yesterday.
<3> Maybe it will today.
<3> I hate you, amphi.
<3> :-P
<3> It works.
<8> Where are the GDM sessions managed? Is it a directory or a file?
<3> amphi: Thanks a whole hell of a lot!
<1> Drac[Server]: directory iirc
<9> somebody please help. I am trying to compile php and I get this error- ./configure: line 2540: lex: command not found
<3> I am now on this on my Ubuntu laptop.
<3> Now, I need help updating FireFox.
<3> :-P
<8> _jason, I'm looking for the where, too.
<3> !firefox
<10> !ff1.5
<11> You can use firefox 1.5 by following this wiki page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion
<12> DarthButcher, try flock. www.flock.com
<1> Drac[Server]: oh, /usr/share/xsessions/ :)
<3> !firefox1.5
<11> You can use firefox 1.5 by following this wiki page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion
<3> I really like Ubuntu.
<3> Especially now that I have it working.
<7> _jason: hmm... tried sudo -s, and then "mount -a"; still no difference =/
<12> DarthButcher, how did you get it working?
<13> hi. how can I tell where a usb device is on my PC? im trying to find out where my palm pilot is listed...
<3> ba: By turning computer on.
<1> noclip: you can just do sudo mount -a, but umm... put your fstab on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org please
<3> Apparently, today it let me connect.
<3> My card is a work out of the box chip.
<12> oh
<3> Will all FireFox themes and extensions work in Ubuntu?
<7> _jason: yeah, sudo mount -a was what i tried in the first place :P
<14> DarthButcher: can't garantee all, but i've never had one not work
<7> _jason: here's my fstab... http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8529
<3> Ok.
<13> can anyone tell me where i can see what usb devices are plugged into my pC?
<3> I feel like such a n0b.
<3> n00b*
<3> How do I get Terminal to work?
<7> _jason: i just had a thought... do i have to unmount and then mount?
<2> j2dope: lsusb
<3> !terminal
<3> Nevermind.
<3> I was looking at Terminal Server, not Terminal.
<1> noclip: shouldn't need to, you can try if you want before you do the following: change ``umask=0222'' to ``ro,user,auto,umask=0222''
<13> Bus 004 Device 002: ID 0830:0061 Palm, Inc.
<13> that's my palm pilot... what's it's link in /dev/ if u know? i've tried /dev/ttyUSB* and /dev/pilot, but no luck
<15> Okay, I feel really stupid, but I have an easy problem.
<2> j2dope: sorry, no idea about palm
<13> np
<15> I am having trouble forwarding my display from my laptop to my desktop. I have set "X11Forwarding yes"
<15> I am starting with -X



<15> the sshd_config files are identical on the two hosts
<13> has anyone here successfully synced a palm pilot with ubuntu breezy?
<15> but I can forward displays from desktop-to-laptop, but I can't go the other way
<3> I so need to fix this laptop.
<3> The battery is effed up, and will not retain any life.
<15> What could do that?
<3> And if I move the AC out the tiniest bit, it loses power.
<2> DarthButcher: my old compaq was like that
<3> This is an old Gateway,
<3> I am getting a new HD on my desktop so I can keep the Windows for dual-boot.
<3> And use the new one for Ubuntu.
<16> DarthButcher: That's a pretty common problem with the majority of laptops
<7> _jason: still doesn't work; i'll try umounting... is there a preferred syntax to umount? or just
<7> sudo umount /dev/sda1
<7> sudo umount /dev/sda5
<1> noclip: that's fine
<9> I'll try this again, I am trying to compile PHP and I get this error- ./configure: line 2540: lex: command not found
<3> iandefor: THis is a crappy 3 year old Gateway.
<3> The only reason I own it is because I fixed it(it was my dad's).
<7> _jason: it works.
<2> Prohibited: why are you compiling php?
<16> DB: Can you purchase a new battery?
<1> noclip: great
<7> _jason: thanks for your help! =)
<2> DarthButcher: cool
<3> iandefor: I didn't see it listed on Sanyo or Gateway's site.
<9> amphi: I thought that's what I was supposed to do
<3> I will check NewEgg.
<9> That's what I had to do to install apache atleast :s
<16> DB: in addition, I've seen people glue the jack back into place
<3> If I can get it cheap, I will have a sweet laptop for the price of a battery.
<2> Prohibited: apt-get install whatever
<16> DB: But that's a pretty bad idea
<3> ian: I agree.
<17> Hi people
<9> I tried that
<17> I want to reinstall Ubuntu
<2> Prohibited: and?
<16> DB: You could also check around at some local computer shops
<9> apt-get install php ?
<17> But if I delete the partitions it is now in, grub won't boot.
<16> DB: Maybe they'd fix it?
<9> Is that what I should put?
<18> needs to be resoldered to the board
<3> ian: We have one right around the corner, I will check it out.
<16> DB: Excellent
<2> Prohibited: apt-cache search php and then install whatever packages you like
<3> ian: My friends go there all the time, and speak highly of it. I hear they have a T3 connection, and host servers for free.
<16> DB: Do they raise the dead, too?
<19> anyone know what will tell me what program or resource is tying up my CPU cycles?
<3> ian:y. No, that manual gets to them on TUesda
<20> ok...I go on deviant and try to do their chat....and it says I don't have the right stuff installed..so it gives me link to install it...so I click it..and it takes me to page..and I install the stuff,,,reboot firefox...and go back to site..and it still says not installed
<20> but if I check by going to tools then to extentions...it says its installed
<16> DB: Hosting servers for free on a t3 connection... they'd have to practically be saints not to charge for such a resource
<9> Oi, thank you amphi. I found what I needed. :-)
<10> Prohibited, you need the flex package (apt-get install flex) for a lex program
<3> ian: I am actually not sure about the T3.
<21> tokenbad: Which "stuff" are you missing? Flash or java?
<16> DB: Ah
<21> !flash
<11> I heard restricted is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats Most of the formats listed here have been replaced by !FreeFormats
<20> BlueEagle, I have both installed
<21> !java
<11> To install Java/Sun Java see Java on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats and also see !javadebs
<21> tokenbad: Let me rephrase. Which "stuff" does devian art say that you have not got installed?
<4> does anyone know why middle click in the mozilla.com version of ff1.5 doesn't work properly?
<20> well I can't paste the 4 lines here
<22> Hi, I'm curious why, in Ubuntu 5.10, it doesn't let you login as the root user via the login screen. Does anybody know why or if there is a way to make this possible?
<21> tokenbad: then go to the paste bin.
<21> jees
<1> Jambon: did you change the setting I told you about before?
<21> !tell tokenbad about pastebin
<7> _jason: incidentally, is there a way to set the umask such that only directories get dr-xr-xr-x permissions, and regular files just get -r--r--r--?
