<0> <5> windows vista beta, gives me the same amount of trouble as linux, things not working, searching for drivers, - but on vista you have the problem that you cannot access the system in such a deep level as under linux
<1> same sh**
<2> I have installed slackware,mandriva,suse,Fedora on this box and have never had as much problme as I have had with ubuntu
<3> thomasM, theres not a lot of inovation in cars :P lol.
<4> troy_s the concept is universal.
<5> if one company produced cars with no problems and warrenty work for free, sure
<6> So... does anybody know a command to reconfigure the sound on the computer?
<1> I think i know what to do
<7> thomasM: Many fundamental freedoms are now dictated by computer use. Companies should not control this. It crept in while we were sleeping.
<8> NoWhereToTurn, problems like what?
<3> I have MUCH more problems in windows then i do in linux.
<9> elephanthunter: there isn't one. What's the issue?
<0> which means yome problems cant be solved by you
<8> SAM_theman, please watch the language.
<10> Windows is full of problems.
<1> srry



<7> thomasM: If you consider literature, art, science, learning, education, etc universal... sure.
<11> unh!
<12> If I could get my video and audio to sync up I'd be gloriously happy with ubuntu
<13> vista beta 2 recognized all of my hardware
<4> troy_s, if there were only one flavour of unix, we would have all of the same problems, free software or not.
<7> thomasM: A car does that for you?
<14> I have a small question, I just installed /ran automatix for the first time, and it is now asking me if I want to replace sources.list ? do i or not ?
<5> Blattlaus, i dont want to solve problems, or go deep into linux
<3> with linux - the problems are at least somthing you can research/check the logs/ and in theory fix.. in windows. you just try 'things' and hopes it fixes the problem
<10> ^
<7> thomasM: We evolve though. Open source evolves. Closed source does not.
<10> exactly
<8> Pelo, you want to click OK to that button.
<3> Pelo, dont use automatix at all. is the best advice
<5> i want a computer that works, and with the money windows has, they can keep it working
<7> Pelo: automatix can bunk you.
<12> vista beta2 didn't even recogonize my videocard - which is older. Or sound... or usb device... so I couldn't use my keyboard or mouse... the whole thing was a mess
<4> troy_s, inovation only evolves with competition.
<15> I just finished downloading the iso image of ubuntu. I burned it to cd. But it does not run. What do I need to do?
<8> Dr_Willis, that advice has now been revoked, although I don't agree with the revokement.
<3> Ms dosent care to keep things working.
<8> troy_s, what I said to Dr_Willis.
<16> bootlick so what's the problem? :)
<7> thomasM: Research history.
<10> Linux is a lot better than windows if you ask me.
<12> ditto
<8> Sephiroth, you don't say...
<7> thomasM: You bought the entire american myth. Try Greek history.
<17> Flashq009: make sure you burned the image rather than putting the image as a file on the disc
<5> Linux is a lot better than windows
<9> guys, open- vs. closed-source belongs in #ubuntu-offtopic.
<3> Fujitsu, now you got him totally confused! :P
<4> troy_s, believe what you want, competition is healthy in every way for consumers.
<5> Imagine the world without windows
<5> I was much happier with dos
<8> bootlick, no, that's too good.
<7> Fujitsu: Laf. Don't say...
<3> bootlick, go back to dos then.
<10> what a good world that would be
<10> no windows
<2> Fujitsu like the partitioner complaining about other partitions from the other distros which has nothing to do with installing the os
<12> many people were happier with dos...
<18> Dr_Willis, Fujitsu: I moved all .gnome-looking folders; of those, .gnome2 and .gnome2_private were recreated upon login. The problem persisted, however.
<7> Sephiroth: Don't stop there... Apple is the other color of bad.
<8> Is it just me, or is ubotu being /really/ laggy.
<14> ok thanks for the info
<10> i hate apple
<7> Fujitsu: Laggy.
<8> varg, best to create an entirely new account, then
<3> varg, theres also the .gconf* directories
<9> offtopic discussion needs to migrate to #ubuntu-offtopic.
<8> NoWhereToTurn, you probably told it to resize, or something.
<8> crimsun_, why did you set that flag!?
<19> Bill Gates created the microcomputer market... He just did it via selling his soul...
<5> ?
<15> vineet: how do I do what you suggested?
<5> okay , no more
<3> varg, i see about 5 .gnome* dirs and about 3 .gconf* dirs
<8> Thankyou, bootlick.
<2> nope told it to create one partition at the end of the drive and to use that for everything ie /



<5> i need help with ubuntu just liek everyone lese
<17> Flashq009: it depends on the program you used to burn the disc
<4> drumline_ bill gates purchased dos from some poor fool who didn't know what it was worth.
<7> Fujitsu: It was off topic. He was correct.
<17> Flashq009: can you read the disc at all? can you see what files it has on it?
<15> yes
<20> Is it easy to go from Ubuntu to KUbuntu.. can I upgrade from the command line?
<21> http://pastebin.ca/64703 can someone ***ist with this? perl keeps complaining that the default locale isn't being set, and i've run dpkg-reconfigure locales a few times - always the same output - as seen in the url at the beginning of this
<20> or is that a big fat h***le?
<8> troy_s, yes, but the setting of the channel to moderated was unnecessary.
<20> or easy to install kde packages?
<10> Yeah, just install KDE.
<16> so what do you need help with bootlick?
<9> elephanthunter: would you describe your sound issues?
<8> steve0_, just install kubuntu-desktop.
<7> steveO_: you can run them both simul.
<17> Flashq009: does it have just one .iso file, or lots of files on it?
<3> steveO_, trivially easy..
<5> many things
<20> ok, cool.
<8> steve0_, that'll give you both Ubuntu and Kubuntu on the one system.
<15> one iso file
<20> awesome, i thought so. :)
<5> first off, no sound with swf files
<2> Now it is complaining "file system has incompatible feture enabled"
<20> thank you :>
<5> well one in particual
<8> NoWhereToTurn, strange.
<1> brb
<5> that gives sound find in windows
<22> ok an azureus error popped up and it won't go away
<5> i will figure it out eventually
<8> NoWhereToTurn, what is installed on the partition it's complaining about?
<7> bootlick: I have also heard that sometimes the flash player in linux has some permissions on the sound output that need adjusting.
<9> bootlick: are you wrapper $browser with aoss?
<8> JohnsonE, I've heard people complaining about that...
<9> bootlick: sorry, s/wrapper/wrapping/
<15> do I get it to extract the iso onto cd?
<17> Flashq009: so that's the problem; that .iso file is actually an entire disc image. You need to use your burning program's "burn disc image" feature
<5> firefox
<8> Flashq009, no.
<8> ubotu, tell Flashq009 about iso
<9> bootlick: ok, do you have 'alsa-oss' from universe installed?
<3> JohnsonE, ive seen that when not using the actual 'sun' java.. but i think it may of hung around even after i used the suns java. :(
<8> Flashq009, see the message from Ubotu.
<22> and i tried to open a torrent with normal bittorrent and that didn't work either :|
<22> how can i install sun's java?
<23> can I just upgrade ubuntu with the cd from within an ubuntu session? I think I'm starting to do that right now.
<9> JohnsonE: use synaptic to install sun-java5-jre
<5> Crimsum going to try that right now
<7> JohnsonE: Some torrents use UDP ports...
<3> JohnsonE, theres other torrent clients out.. ive actually gotten used to ktorrent lately
<8> nomin, you need the alternate CD.
<9> bootlick: after you install it, use ``aoss firefox'' from a Terminal
<7> JohnsonE: If you want, try Bittornado for UDP etc.
<2> ] <8> NoWhereToTurn, what is installed on the partition it's complaining about? <every partiton it has complained about belonged to another distro installed on this computer
<18> Dr_Willis: Worked. Thanks a bunch! :)
<7> JohnsonE: It is dead easy and not much to it...
<2> I have no idea what the heck this incompatible feature error is
<24> does anyone know how to install xine?
<16> bootlick https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats#head-f375cba46014e861cd5ec7643bd7c4ef05acff2b
<8> NoWhereToTurn, neither do I. What other distros are there?
<4> crimsun_ there is a problem with the compiz package, it is not installing the gconf keys man. if you know the proper people to inform about this, please let them know.
<16> that goes into detail on it
<8> xonic, install the xine package.
<18> exit
<25> I'm having trouble getting gtk-gnutella to work. It looks ok, but when I search, nothing comes up. It says that it's firewalled, but it isn't to my knowlege. I set up port forwarding on my router also, and it still doesn't work. Any ideas?
<24> how and where
<7> JohnsonE: Also note that for some torrents to get to you, if they are behind a firewall, you will need to permit them to attach to you via yours. Security risk, but some will not work without.
<24> can't find it
<4> crimsun_ me and 3 other people have had problems tonight with compiz, always the same error: no gconf keys.
<9> xonic: libxine1-main should already be installed. Do you need mp3 and additional support?
<23> Fujitsu: when I put the dapper cd in, it opened up synaptic automatically and added the cd to the repository. Now I've selected 'upgrade' and I'm hoping that it's only downloading files that are not on the cd.
<17> any recommendations on where else to ask for my ma111/linux-wlan-ng problem?
