<0> hi all
<1> MetaMorfoziS, i'm not totally sure, just wait a moment
<2> okay, thankyou
<1> MetaMorfoziS, does the splash screen (ubuntu logo, with progress bar) display fine?
<3> HI!
<2> yes, but after the loading it changes to the tty, [in this case it's normally seen] and make and do something:D and the kdm loads...
<2> but it's an other problem i think...
<2> so ^^ yes
<3> Have anyone experienced problems using the new gstream 0.10 engine? My problem is that Rythmbox and Banshee are having problems with the wind/rewind feature with the progress bar. Everytime I place the bar a few seconds into the song, the bar won't do as commanded, it jumps a bit back and forward, and ends up in a different place that I wanted it to.
<1> MetaMorfoziS, when you restart your computer, and the boot menu comes up, chose to edit your default option... add 'vga=771' to the end of the kernel line.. i think that will disable framebuffer and might help... if you can't work out exactly where or how to add that part, just try adding at the end of the line with the work linux, or vm or something like that.. maybe someone else knows exactly what to do
<1> Alfred_, i have that too
<1> Alfred_, on banshee, anyway
<4> Hello. I have a dual-boot manager. Windows XP + Dapper. I use Dapper's GRUB as the boot manager. The problem is that I need to reinstall Windows. Windows setup will ofcourse overwrite the MBR. How do I restore GRUB after that?
<2> Matthewv: is it possible in grub?
<1> Alfred_, maybe ask in #banshee on irc.gnome.org
<1> MetaMorfoziS, yes
<5> hi can somebody please tell me how to run Vice (commodore 64 emulator).... i installed it using apt-get, but vice did not get added to the start menu, and i dont know how to launch it from the command line
<6> evi|one: you can use the install cd in rescue mode then reinstall grub
<1> evi|one, i would boot off the live cd, then open a terminal and run 'sudo chroot /dev/<linux_partition>' and then 'grub-install /dev/hda' to reinstall grub on the mbr
<6> evi|one: check help.ubuntu.com am not sure but their ought to be a page on that there
<3> Matthewv, Good to see that I'm not the only one! :)
<2> thx Matthewv, i try, bb
<4> Alright, thanks. Both of you.
<1> farous, have you had success with that method... it didn't work for me, so i use live cd now
<3> Matthewv, Quite irritating with this bug. Would be a good idea to reinstall the gstream 0.8 engine?
<1> Alfred_, no, banshee at least has discontinued all gstreamer 0.8 support
<6> Matthewv: worked more than once. but never tried it with dapper as i do not use window anymore
<6> the partition is there though just in case ;)
<3> Matthewv, great! *sigh*
<1> farous, actually, i generally keep my mbr on a floppy disk, just so i dont overwrite windows.... and yeah, my win partition is still there just in case, although i haven't used it for months
<1> Alfred_, wait a moment i'll just give banshee a shot :)
<7> floppy drive? What is this arcane device you speak of?
<3> Matthewv, Are you using dapper? Quite many bugs that has come along with this new ubuntu version! Another bug is with Azureus not working properly (popup messages won't dissapear, sysicon is invisible, no way to close tabs etc)
<1> Alfred_, actually it all seems to be working fine for me now, on dapper...
<1> Alfred_, although i am actually running the cvs copy of dapper... I'll try rhythmbox
<8> Alfred_: ctrl w closes azureus windows
<6> Alfred_: i agree but this seem to be java prob
<9> is tehre a terminal command to show the "gnome session startup programs" window?
<3> Matthewv: hmmm, that's odd! Mine is still not behaving!
<10> hey, does anyone here use Nicotine or Museek?
<11> Hattori, gnome-session-properties
<6> i agree though that it has many bugs. wonder if they did not delay it how much worse it would have been
<12> Frogzoo, What is the DNS server (bind9) used to?
<13> eXistenZ: man bind
<8> eXistenZ: used to? used for?
<12> Oops, sorry.
<1> everything seems fine Alfred_
<3> Frogzoo, Farous: thanks! But still, It does give a sour taste in your mouth when you feel you had lesser problems with the previous version of Ubuntu. Anyway, I'm willing to give Ubuntu several chances to correct these problems/bugs before I give in :)
<9> chavo: damn, doesn't start =\ is there any way to edit in terminal the list of starting programs?
<6> :) Alfred_ perhaps we just upgraded too soon
<11> Hattori, you could, but it's not easy
<9> chavo: there is not a file to edit? ;{
<3> farous, hehe, it appears so, but I am using the final version that was released 1st of june.
<8> Alfred_: unfortunately, I think with dapper they've been a bit ambitious - but the really important thing about dapper is that it conclusively proves that linux on the desktop has a future, and is a serious competitor to windows - with any new release there's always bugs that need ironing out, just goes with the territory
<11> Hattori, look in .gnome2, I forget what it's called.
<3> Matthewv, hmm, mine is still not behaving properly. It jumps back and forth, and seems quite confused.
<1> Alfred_, Frogzoo i'm really looking forward to edgy, as for me... i prefer features to stability :)
<2> Matthewv: i can't type = in the grub when editing the kernel line:D
<3> Frogzoo, Matthewv: I agree Matthewv, stability is much more important than features and eye candy!
<6> Alfred_: have you tried installing sun java from sun website
<14> UbUntU!
<2> hm i check menu.lst
<1> MetaMorfoziS, it can be added in menu.lst, but then its permanent (well until changed) whereas adding it at boot time enables it just for that boot
<15> hi
<15> bonjour
<1> hi loic_
<15> hi Matthew
<15> i have a problem with my logitech webcam
<8> farous: eg?
<15> i can't install my webcam
<1> !webcam
<16> [webcam] now easy to install, per https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Webcam - webcam support soon to be available in gaim-vv. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsMultimediaWebCameras
<2> okay, i have done added it to menu.lst go restart
<2> :)
<6> Frogzoo: some in multiverse so i do not blame ubuntu some in universe
<17> I really, really need hard drive help, I'm desperate, please please, can someone help me? I think I mortally screwed my ubuntu partition, I meant to install xubuntu on an external, but it seems to have installed over my main partition, Fujitsu was helping me before and we had started using autopsy to try, but he had to leave, so I need someone else to help finish! I really, really need extreme help, take a look at http://www.ubuntufo
<17> rums.org/showthread.php?p=1126905
<18> Is there anyone in here right now that's responsible for easyubuntu?
<15> thank ubotu
<15> i will try it
<14> gdb: just ask.
<3> farous: No, I used the ubuntuguide (easylinux.org). But it's not that important. I'll just wait for the next version. But if it getstoo irritating, I'll think about applying the Java installer
<6> Frogzoo: lyx, wxmaxima, simpy, eclipse worked much smoother and better from source
<15> i have taked easycam
<6> java
<6> the list go on
<19> Hi guys. I have a slight problem - I just ran the pear manager to install the base pear modules for php, but it exited with errors, which is ok. The problem is that it also deleted /tmp :( I have now recreated it, but I am not sure what permissions to give it, and i think it is caused my system to have some problems. The perms are currently drwxrwxrwt, and it is green in the terminal. Can anyone help me out? thanks
<18> kbrooks: Oh, I don't have a question about it, more a feature request.
<15> but how can i launch it ?
<15> what command please
<14> gdb: #easyubuntu
<8> farous: I've got amarok 1.4 & the latest taskjuggler in the repos, plus fglrx 8.25.18 so I'm largely pleased with dapper
<18> kbrooks: Thank you. :-)
<15> (sorry for my english but i'm a french student)
<20> adam_: Yeah, not having the right permissions will affect your system.
<21> have you any idea ?
<21> what's the command ?
<6> who ever workd on fglrx did a really good job. installed from source and repos and both had same results
<19> gnube, thanks. Can you tell me what permissions I should have set?
<20> adam_: A lot of programs write to /tmp . . .
<20> adam_: Let me check mine . . . brb
<19> thanks
<8> farous: pretty sure Seveas_ is the guilty party there
<6> fluxbox i compiled also. for i hated how the menus are messed
<22> Frogzoo, ?
<8> Seveas: c'mon seveas, you packaged the new fglrx, admit it!
<22> Frogzoo, only for breezy
<20> adam_: I have it chowned by root and chmoded 777
<8> Seveas: ah, i c
<6> Seveas: i was saying who ever worked on fglrx did really superb job. so Frogzoo said you are the guilty part
<20> adam_: try that?
<14> #ubuntu ops arent the guilty party most of the time
<22> For dapper the l-r-m packages contain the latest and are produced by Adam Conrad
<21> its ok i have
<2> Matthewv: we are on good track! At boot it said that mode is unavailable that i setted (with vga=711) and get for me a list 1-7 with rows*cols values and asked me abotu a numer or `scan`, i typed scan, and it booted. At this time i have a very beautiful tty, but how can i fix it to all boot?:D
<21> trouv le programme inside system -> administration
<23> hey all
<8> !fr
<16> Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
<21> hey
<21> ubotu
<21> what's the link ?
<8> xaero57: ubuto est une 'bot'
<19> gnube: It doesnt seem to have helped. The whole /tmp directory was removed, will this cause issues for apps (e.g. konsole, which is having issues) that presumably store data there? Should I just do a reboot?
<24> can someone help me with my menu.lst
<23> my current user doesn't have permission to hibernate/switch users now the "power" button just loggs me out and back into GDM how do i re-enable hibernation ?
<21> Frogzoo : merci. what's the link
<8> B***etts: sure
<24> ive been told to add vga=791
<25> i cant get into su
<8> xaero57: link to what exactly?
<24> after # defoptions=quiet splash
<24> would i have to uncomment?
<21> link to ubuntu-fr
<26> B***etts: no
<6> !tell AJ004 about sudo
<25> i tried to do a su and my p***word isnt working
<20> adam_, Yeah, you need to make sure that /tmp exists and has the proper permissions since a lot of applications write to /tmp
<26> B***etts: there's exactly one # in that line
<24> ok Knorrie
<8> B***etts: should go at the end of the '#kopts' line, then 'sudo update-grub'
<25> farous so instead of su i use sudo?
<20> adam_, did you chown /tmp root?
<6> yap
<25> ok
<19> gnube: I have done that, it is root:root, 777
<25> thanks
<6> :)
<20> adam_, OK
<24> Frogzoo: i got told to put it after # defoptions=quiet splash =S
