<0> intelikey, interpret what I said before, thru that prism. Gimme slack :)
<1> but fglrxinfo says opengl vendor is mesa
<2> lol
<1> instead of ati
<3> aeon17x: gnome-screensaver should just work
<1> how do i get rid of mesa?
<4> I have a PII 266 with 328MB ram 3.5Gig Maxtor HDD, The Dapper install Locks up when Mounting root file system.. any ideas?
<5> tux0010: why you did not install from the repos
<2> nickrud yeah it's cool just knew you knew better :)
<6> sladen: if I use that I couldn't configure the rest of my options
<5> tux0010: did you run aticonfig?
<0> intelikey, yeah, language matters, truly
<1> yeap
<1> farous, i did install from the repos
<7> I need a drink
<3> nickrud: grub has a ext2 filesystem reader, so reads the filesystem; lilo just has a pointer to a sector containing a list of sectors to load and that list is computer when you type 'lilo'
<8> i did a sudo chmod but it only changed the permissions on the folder and not the files in the folder...please help
<9> sup everyone
<5> tux0010: ok did you install the linux-restricted-modules package
<10> varsendaggr: you can p*** an argument to the 'gnome-terminal' command using the -e switch to run an arbitrary command
<3> stephan__: sudo chmod -R ...
<11> supadupa: chmod -R
<3> stephan__: and make sure you use a big 'X' not a little 'x' otherwise all the files will be executable, rather than just the directroies
<1> yeap it is all insstalled
<12> I read somewhere that there was a utility that helped you intall all the non-free stuff automagically (like flash/mp3 support) -- does anybod remmber the URL for thi tool?
<1> lemme try one more thing real qk....brb
<8> ok thank you
<5> tux0010: ok
<6> sladen: so I can't lock my screen with xscreensaver?
<3> swa: easy ubuntu
<0> sladen, and which is more reliable in the long run, one that uses the bios and is really well written, or one that just uses hardware, and is more fragile?
<2> sladen correct lilo jumps to sector# and reads raw... X# sectors in.
<3> aeon17x: you should be able to just fine. Have you configured it to lock your screen with xscreensaver?
<6> sladen: how do I do that?
<13> iwconfig and iwlist are reporting my wireless adaptor's access point as invalid, can anyone tell me what this means/ideas on how to remedy?
<3> intelikey: it reads a *list* of sectors, those sectors are not necessarily in one straight block
<7> bbiab .. going to take a break and cry
<14> nickrud, Presumeably, they would both be improved later. The bios is often slow, and buggy. Hardware is also buggy, but the software will work around them in time.
<2> no not necessarily. but idealy
<1> how good is the new ati driver?
<3> aeon17x: System->Preferences->Screen Saver [x] Lock after [0] Minutes
<1> does it work well with a radeon 9500 pro?
<12> sladen, thanks
<5> tux0010: slightly better than the 8.24 one
<15> Hey, I recently bought a new SATA HDD and installed Dapper onto it. On my old IDE HDD I have a Dapper install and a Windows XP partition. From grub on the SATA HDD I can boot to the old Dapper partition, but if I try to boot to Windows XP grub just send me to a grub command prompt. I've been reading but nothing I've tried works so far. Any suggestions?
<6> sladen: I want it to lock the screen when I press the lock screen button.
<6> sladen: not automatically
<5> tux0010: no gain in speed just less lockups
<3> aeon17x: what achine do you have?
<3> aeon17x: what machine? A Thinkpad?
<6> sladen: a PC
<0> Arafangion, to be truthful, I switched from lilo to grub with ubuntu. For my purposes, there was no real differences recently.
<3> aeon17x: gnome-screensaver supports the KEY_COFFEE (aka KEY_LOCK), but xscreensaver does not
<2> !tell annex about dualboot
<14> nickrud, In cases where grub works, it works better than lilo can ever hope to do so.
<2> !tell annex about grub
<6> sladen: I could lock it before in xscreensaver in breezy.
<2> annex maybe one of those will be just what you need.
<0> Arafangion, google lilo heaven. I beg to differ.
<16> Hi, I'm using live cd version of ubuntu 5.10, but I can't change the resolution of the screen
<14> nickrud, I speak from the experience of one who used to routinely compile his own kernels.
<15> intelikey: thanks, I'll take a look... been reading for a while
<1> works :)
<3> aeon17x: for dapper, xscreensaver has been replaced with gnome-screensaver. And gnome-screensaver will do the locking if it's running
<17> lilo/heaven isnt that an oxymoron?
<5> tux0010: cool :)
<18> does anyone have any experience running grsecurity in ubuntu?
<6> sladen: okay, I'll use gnome-screensaver then
<3> Dyegov: if you monitor is returning the wrong results about it's capabilities then you'll need to override them
<0> Arafangion, so do I, but pre-grub
<6> sladen: how do I access the rest of the options though?
<2> gnomefreak no more than grub heaven would be
<17> lol ;)
<3> aeon17x: what option are you after?
<19> hi, could someone kindly help?
<16> sladen, I don't knwo what you're talking about, I'm a noob
<0> nah, it's a state of mind, just an old one :)
<20> alright whats a cd burning app that can burn audio cd from mp3s that i can install from synaptic?
<19> I can't change my resolution to 1280x768 or 1366x768, how do I do this?
<16> I've tried in system, preferences resolution
<16> but it just gives me one option
<14> nickrud, :)
<6> sladen: the part where I can control how long it would blank and cycle
<5> [LiFE]: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
<6> sladen: and preview
<5> !tel [LiFE] about resol
<21> I don't know, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, farous
<6> sladen: and the part where I can also individually set each screensaver
<19> farous: u want me to run that?
<5> !tel [LiFE] about resolution
<21> farous: Bugger all, I dunno. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/

<21> XGL on Ubuntu: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/CompositeManager - Join #ubuntu-xgl for all the XGL fun on Ubuntu systems. Pretty videos on http://www.novell.com/linux/xglrelease/ See http://tinyurl.com/pw5ez for Kubuntu systems
<22> tux0010 no it doesn't, it's alpha stage
<28> hey guys, I'm fairly new to linux (I use it casually but have recently set it up on my laptop and got all of my hardware working perfectly). I'm now looking at getting the right software for my needs but there's so much out there that it's hard to know what the best is
<27> The video is hard to find....
<28> are there any sites out there that allow users to rate open source software?
<2> stephan__ man chmod
<1> is there a wiki for xgl installation?
<1> esp. with ati
<28> say for example I'm looking for the available development IDEs on there
<29> how do you delete a directory with the Unix CLI?
<0> RamiK***ab, sourceforge.net is the best place to look
<5> RamiK***ab: help.ubuntu.com is a good start and packages.ubuntu.com for the package list
<2> stephan__ short answer chmod [args] inode
<27> rami, lots if info on the forum... Windows to linux equates too...
