Comments:

<0> avis, i understand how to change basic permissions of a file or directory with chmod, but not add to a group
<1> Angel_Dex: every release has "issues". Pick one or several.
<2> i honestly have some issues with things like xubuntu and ubuntu probably because they are unresolveable.
<3> stevejesus: you can use 'addgroup' to add a new group to the system
<4> stevejesus, man chgrp
<5> could somebody give me the directory of the sources.lst
<6> crimsun_ i dont care about issues tho i care about stuff like they dumbed down the GUI and menus abit
<7> Tobberoth, i commented out all the display subsections in xorg and created a new 24bit depth @ 1280x1024/60
<8> oranged, actually the res tool used to show me res's that I didn't have in the xorg.conf. I stopped using the res tool much after that
<9> anyone have luck using ntfs read/write support in dapper?
<3> stevejesus: and 'chgrp' to change the group of a file or directory
<10> human: /etc/apt
<0> dooglus, the group already exists
<8> brb
<2> but i wouldn't run another os unless it was to learn bash linux only
<5> thank you



<11> anyone knows a utility for scanning my partition for bad clusters ?
<2> terminal
<1> Angel_Dex: if that's your biggest thorn, you can use alacarte to "reenable" them.
<2> ntfs write is not stable dont even think about it
<12> hello
<2> fat32.
<0> dooglus, thank you
<7> nickrud, it worked fine in ubuntu 5.10. ;) shame that its always one step back with a new version of gnome
<13> stevejesus: you can just do chmod user:group 755 file also
<3> stevejesus: "sudo adduser <user> <group>" will add <user> to <group>
<12> how do you convert ps to an image?
<0> dooglus, how do i look at all of the already created groups that exist?
<2> oranged, do you feel that is the feeling of the general community ?
<2> i'm picky.
<2> heh
<2> well i'm not upset or anything.
<7> avis, its my opinion. :)
<3> stevejesus: user-admin will show you
<2> okies
<0> dooglus
<3> stevejesus: or look at /etc/group
<2> xubuntu wouldn't install on my high end tower.
<7> avis, every distro has new bugs with a new release
<2> that broke my heart
<6> crimsun_ so i can really keep the old look and feel and be on version 6.01 ?
<2> yes i know but i ran mandrake before mandriva
<9> avis what about it wont install
<14> Angel_Dex: there is no 6.01, you mean 6.06?
<2> and it was pretty darned awesome for its time
<7> nickrud, thanks for all your help
<6> Flannel when i updated it said 6.01 LTS
<1> Angel_Dex: not by default, but you can revert to them, yes.
<3> Angel_Dex: 6.06 LTS I think you'll find
<0> dooglus, are there any gui tools? user-admin seems to not exist of me in mine or roots path
<1> Angel_Dex: (you probably mean 6.06 LTS)
<11> anyone knows a utility for scanning my partition for bad clusters ?
<2> it has a bug. it halts. it doesn't use dhcp to send error report and the error report is too long to write down.
<3> stevejesus: users-admin is a gui tool - I mistyped it just now
<2> i noted my system specs to developers. on the forums.
<0> dooglus, thank you
<9> avis> thats a network issue not xubuntu
<2> no it isn't
<2> it doesn't try to connect to dhcp to send a bug report
<2> it wants you to write it down
<1> avis: hint: many of us are more easily reachable via e-mail, not the forums.
<9> uh ok...
<2> mailing list ?
<2> i'd rather use forums
<4> badblocks (8) - search a device for bad blocks
<1> avis: file a bug on LP, that's the best way to get our attention. Mailing ubuntu-devel simply decreases the signal to noise ratio and makes us less productive.
<2> well perhaps mailing list is the way to go.
<14> avis: devs don't necessarily read the forums
<2> well i was discrete.
<14> avis: launchpad is the way to go ;)
<0> dooglus, i have a group called "audio", for low-latency access to the sound-card, but it doesn't seem to appear in users-admin
<15> here goes nothing
<15> sighhhh
<6> CokeNCode, Gonna reinstall 5.10??
<2> i am happy with my gnome though
<2> the only thing i cannot do is use Muine
<9> anyone have luck using ntfs read/write support in dapper?



<14> twysted: not write
<16> I hate printing in ubuntu...
<2> i have installed every 0.8 and 0.10 gstreamer plugin and win32 codecs. its a no go.
<14> twysted: no one has stable write support, as captive isn't stable. Reading is though.
<15> I hope this works...
<2> ntfs write is not stable at all. i would not think about it.
<2> fat32 all the way if you need security use ext3
<9> Flannel, yes i need to delete some files off of a hugh ntfs drive so i can see what else i have to copy since i have to spread it out on several systems
<17> Angel_Dex, yeh, i'm seriously considering it ... nad then install 6.06 on this other computer here that has on redhat 9.0 currently
<14> twysted: deleting is writing, and as such, not stable.
<7> i use a small fat partition for windows so i can transfer files between the oses
<9> CokeNCode why downgrade?
<6> CokeNCode I really really really like 5.10 every little thing about it well the icon set in 6.06 is better but the rest ****s
<16> Yay at last! printer working without a gay*** turboprint logo >_<
<4> !language
<18> Please watch your language. We try to be nice and help but some of us don't like to see such things on our screen.
<2> i have a windows tower next to me that is my child. its quite nice and effecitve. though i want to do advanced tasks and use a different environment and a challenge.
<19> how to change the default appl that opens rm, ram files from totem to realplay. doing it in nautilus does not work for some reason. it only change it for one specific file
<16> OH NO!!!
<16> Spoke too soon
<16> :(
<16> Whyyyy
<16> nooo
<16> :(
<6> twysted both of us really dont line the feel and loko of 6.06 i personally think its Dumbed down alot
<16> :(:(
<9> Angel_Dex> i do agree on the dumbed down part but it looks alot better i hated the brown everything
<2> i'd do what i could to further its development
<7> Angel_Dex, theres always the terminal. ;)
<2> i would not run anything else
<6> twysted ummmm you DO know there are color themes? no?
<2> unless it was for learning purposes
<20> has anyone installed dapper on a lombard powerbook?
<9> Angel_Dex> yes i do know but default install only had 1 or 2 choices and they blew =)
<16> Oh how I hate you turboprint :(
<6> twysted Um my defualt installed had like 10 and they are good
<21> i still cant find wine after installing it with symantic packet manager
<2> they have a supportedlaptops page but i lost the bookmark many installed ago.
<2> it seems notebook support is weak.
<21> i enabled universe and multiverse
<9> Angel_Dex> well anyways, id rather have dapper then breezy even though its dumbed down
<10> linux notebook support in general is weak
<22> I was just wondering if someone would be able to explain to me how I would go about installing PHP and being able to run the scripts from my computer. In particular, the GD module.
<23> hmm my .Xdefaults file isn't being read properly in Dapper
<1> !info wine dapper
<18> wine: (Microsoft Windows Compatibility Layer (Binary Emulator and Library)), section universe/otherosfs, is optional. Version: 0.9.9-0ubuntu2 (dapper), Packaged size: 8578 kB, Installed size: 40460 kB
<14> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport avis
<1> iloveyhwh: see above.
<2> iloveyhwh, you might have missed a repo or not enable backports and do a apt-get update.
<9> kibeth> sudo apt-get install php4-cli php4-gd
<4> iloveyhwh, dpkg -L wine
<2> Flannel, thank you i can't keep track of urls because of unfortunate things like XGL and such :)
<24> !automatix
<18> Automatix is a script that automates installation of some items. It may break your system, please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UserDocumentation instead. For help with and discussion of automatix please join #automatix.
<9> iloveyhwh> wine is run from the command line there is no shortcut for it
<16> Does anyone know anything about turboprint?
<22> twysted> I've used Synaptic Package Manager to get the packages, php5-gd, php5, and the others, but will that allow me to do everything necessary?
<6> Ughness
<14> avis: eh? what does XGL have to do with it? oh, you didn't install it unobtrusively and had to reinstall? ;)
<25> Stormx2, I used to use it before Canon released decent drivers for my i550
<2> i broke it :)
<6> Why did they dumb it down? ifeel liek they are going the WIndows rute
<9> kibeth> that would unless you require a webserver then install apache2 as well =)
<2> but hey i did better than alot of people getting it up and running :)
<16> roo_: Oh I can use canon drivers? In linux!
<16> roo_: please show me how/where!!
<22> Thanks. :)
<25> Stormx2, which printer do you have?
<16> roo_: Canon S400
<26> question: i just installed azureus, and i need a port opened to it, i opened it on my router and pointed it to my ubuntu box ip address (static) but it still seems like its closed... is there a port-allow list or something I need to edit in ubuntu?
<22> How would I configure it, and are there ways to PM or something similar, never was an IRC buff. :P
<2> do you use a firewall in ubuntu Meek- ?
<26> dont think so, this is a fresh install, and im a noob so I havent set it up
<2> firestarter is a popular firewall though a router is sufficient a NAT router at least.
