<0> !tell meheren about repeat
<1> if i installed stuff from edgy, how do i downgrade it?
<2> meheren, #ipodlinux
<3> rixth, hehe... sry
<0> bobstro, it'd be disasterous for us to lose all our families data. Not really, it'd have to be a wireless router too for one. Also, it's not in my house, it's about 60ft away in the shed
<1> i changed my sources.list back to the original, but it says that my packages are all up to date
<0> Incase the house burns down!
<4> can someone tell me what "kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unkown-block(8,1)" means
<5> DeathGuppie: did you install one?
<0> ube, usually means a harddrive failure
<6> !ubotu
<7> Yep, that's me! I'm a bot alright. Read http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbotuUsage to find out how to use me. Do NOT play with me in any channel except #debian-bots.
<4> rixth: but i have windows installed on a partition
<6> :P
<0> ube, can you boot that?
<8> bobstro: it was up.. so I ***ume so. why it's not working now, I don't know.



<4> rixth: yeah. i just installed windows today
<1> ube: it also sometimes means that root isn't set properly in /etc/fstab
<9> Ahh I'm all confused and didn't understand anything from that guide
<4> steev-dell: im booting of a kubuntu cd
<0> Hm, dunno, then. Sounds like you overwrote something simportant.
<8> bobstro: I'm ***uming ubuntu has some similar functionality to dhcpcd
<5> DeathGuppie: which did you install?
<1> the cd doesn't boot then?
<0> ube, did you change the partition table?
<4> steev-dell: cd boots
<5> DeathGuppie: yes, several options but not installed by default (i don't thik)
<10> !dhcp
<7> Some people juggle geese. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, garryfre
<11> ok brb i gotta install so much stuff now
<8> bobstro: I didn't but my network was up..
<4> rixth: windows is set to half the hard drive, the rest is emtpy
<9> I still have the same problem with the resolution
<5> DeathGuppie: to be clear -- you want the box to be a dhcp *server* ?
<0> ube, oh, so you can't boot the live cd?
<4> rixth: i get to the menu where it asks to run or install the cd, i boot into text mode and i get that error
<8> bobstro: no.. the dhcpcd is just the client
<5> DeathGuppie: ah... sorry
<4> i need to boot into text mode bc i dont think it'll support my nvidia 7800
<5> DeathGuppie: no dhclient?
<12> bobstro: the Netgear WG511T is looking like the most likely candidate for an "out of box" wifi card
<8> bobstro: so how do you restart the network, is what I'm asking
<12> unless anyone tells me otherwise, I might go for it in the near future
<5> bazald: ah, cool. will write that down.
<13> pd271: thnx!
<8> bobstro: in all other linux's it's dhcpcd
<14> ok RancidLM :)
<14> RancidLM: just gave you a few hints
<15> hello there
<10> You will likely need to hand add the resolutions in /etc/X11/xorg.conf and also find out your horizontal and vertical refresh rate ranges and put them in via sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
<5> DeathGuppie: ifdown/ifup work?
<5> DeathGuppie: strange that it died though!
<15> how come I cannot access any administrative stuff here
<0> How can I get the meda keys working on my keyboard? Most of them do not have a keycode ***igned yet.
<15> I;m trying to configure my services, but it never loads
<10> that is if the dkpg reconfigure of xerver failed to fix it.
<15> neither can I run updates
<2> nelisa, what never loads?
<8> bobstro: ok.. you said it dhclient.. it's just a different demon.. same thing
<9> I can't fix my resolution problem, I want my ubuntu to be 1024X(i dont remember)
<15> the service management interface
<15> or the update service
<5> rixth: System->Preferences->Keyboard Shortcuts worked for me
<0> nelisa, open up a terminal and enter 'sudo services-admin'
<0> bobstro, yeah, worked for some but not all have keycodes at the kernle level ***igned
<2> nelisa, does the p***word window come up?
<10> 1024X756
<10> er 1024 768
<15> it asks for p***word on the terminal, I provided and it get me back to prompt in termina
<15> what now?
<9> I don't like this linux like thism, it's very big!!!
<10> Use your normal account p***word
<5> Dyegov: i edited my xorg.conf like the wiki example
<0> nelisa, no error? I'm not sure nthen sorry
<2> nelisa, you're using your user pw, the one you gave during install?
<0> Madpilot, if she gave the wrong p***word it would say..



<16> how can I change the resolution boot screen?
<5> it's a gui program, no?
<0> bobstro, yeah
<5> gksudo perhaps?
<15> for simplicity sake I set root and user the same
<9> But This is my first time with linux, and I don't understand anything that says bobstro
<10> yep, gksudo too
<8> man gentoo was soo much easier..
<2> nelisa, why did you create a root pw? There isn't one by default, and it's not needed...
<5> Dyegov: ah, it is cryptic. sorry, i don't know an easier way.
<15> it said it would be more secure that way
<5> DeathGuppie: it's different, that's for sure.
<9> so, should I keep it like this?
<9> It's making me crazy
<16> not hte grub boot screen.. but the ubuntu boot screen, while it's showing it's loading modules.. I hate the low res one it uses, so would like to change it.. is that possible?
<15> in the taskbar I can see thet theres starting services, but it then dissappears
<2> nelisa, no, it wouldn't really be. Have a look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo
<5> Dyegov: well, you want to change it but the tools to fix it automatically arent working for you it seems. i'd read through that wiki page and try it.
<15> how do I remove the root p***word then
<8> bobstro: actually, slackware is pretty simple too.. gentoo's biggest problem is the non standard filesystem
<15> but I don't really sse how can that affect functionality like this
<5> DeathGuppie: at the risk of being kicked, there's a bit of "freedom from choice" involved with ubuntu i think.
<2> nelisa, please read that wiki page I gave you
<9> bobstro, could you please give me the link again?
<5> Dyegov: er.... i didn't provide it. will see if i can find it.
<9> Ok
<5> Dyegov: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto
<15> ok
<10> https://wiki.kubuntu.org/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia?highlight=%28nvidia%29
<10> That link works for ubuntu as well as kbuntu
<5> DeathGuppie: i'm still adjusting to things disappearing that i take for granted. not a bad thing, necessarily, but an adjustment.
<17> hey all, could someone tell me if the Dlink DWL-G650 is supported by ubuntu yet
<8> bobstro: I can see helicopters and guys with gas masks closing in on you..
<0> !tell Carwreck about wireless
<5> DeathGuppie: they're humorless here sometimes :)
<9> thax a lot bobstro
<5> Dyegov: good luck with it!
<18> I still haven't had any luck with my MA111 ... I'm about ready to give up and go back to sarge =(
<5> DeathGuppie: only they wear Birkenstocks
<10> I see the folks with the masks on fall down because they forgot to turn on the oxygen.
<5> !tell bobstro about wireless
<19> cool I got ubuntu working
<10> Trats Flash
<10> er grats
<17> !madwifi
<7> for help with madwifi please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkManagerMadwifi
<19> Now where do I go to use wireless in ubuntu if I install it on laptop/notebook?
<20> greetings...
<21> i just wanted to say that i appreciate everyone in the ubuntu community and i've had a great experience being helped and helping other people and that i hope it rocks the linux world. for now though i am gone and shall return to another domain. i most especially would hope that someone give thoreaupeutic my regards and this message for his encouragement.
<21> ciao folks. its been -- wonderful.
<5> avis: where ... are you going?
<22> you're welcome avis
<21> heh
<8> bobstro: well burkinstocks, and gas masks can work.. :)
<21> i dont know i think i've crossed the threshold :)
<20> how can i configure the laptop fan.. it never seems to shut down.. the temp hovers around 43..
<21> take care all. peace.
<15> Madpilot, not of much use
<5> DeathGuppie: heh. my head hurts thinking about it.
<15> I'm still locked away from updates
<2> nelisa, enabling root can bugger things up in Ubuntu - as you're discovering...
<15> Failed to run /usr/bin/update-manager as user root:
<15> Child terminated with 1 status
<20> its draining my batteries.. please help
<23> we are on #ubuntu
<23> not on #itelleverybodyaboutmylife
<8> bobstro: I'm just installing it because the blender crystalspace export doesn't work on my system, and I need it for a game I'm doing some graphics for.. I kind of like the image..:)
<15> I can see that, but I've never seen a distro act like that because of a root p***word
<20> HellDragon: r u talkin to me??
<15> @)
<23> no
<23> im talking to C***
<9> bobstro, it says I have to select one option, For Dapper 6.06: or For Breezy 5.10 (and earlier): , what's that?
<20> HellDragon: cheers..:)
