<2> hello: i need java on my linux box!
<3> hi guys
<0> ubotu:: tell LoveAnd*** about java
<4> !java
<3> quick question about gmail notifier in ubuntu
<5> To install Java/Sun Java see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Java and see also !javadebs
<6> maxyvits: ask
<0> Healot:: beat ya! :)
<2> !javadebs
<5> In Breezy: j2re1.4 is in multiverse. In Dapper: sun-java5-jre is in multiverse
<3> I don't understand the check interval number
<3> It is set to default "20000"



<3> what does that mean?
<6> maxyvits: thats how long it waits to check it
<3> 20000 what?
<6> 20,000 secs
<2> tnx Healot
<2> tnx Hexidigital_
<0> LoveAnd***:: no problem :)
<3> why doesn't it do something simpler like minutes?
<0> maxyvits:: in case you want a 30 second refresh?
<6> maxyvits: that is up to who wrote it to make it mins or sec or hours
<7> can someone please point me to a wiki for network printing in ubuntu 6
<0> !cups
<3> ok, thanks!
<5> cups is The Common UNIX Printing System (or CUPS) is a printing system and general replacement for lpd and the like. See also http://linuxprinting.org/
<8> Hi. I have an old pre-sarge (I think, at most sarge) system, and I'd like to upgrade it to dapper. Can I just dist-upgrade or install ubuntu-desktop? There was not much installed and it wasn't heavily used, so it should be mostly defaults anyway.
<6> erich: i wouldnt
<0> erich:: youre better off installing fresh
<4> ubuntu's dependencies != Debian dependencies
<6> erich: i would do a clean install cross platform upgrading is not a good idea
<3> so if I want it to check every 3 mins I just enter 180 in the field?
<4> short ubuntu != debian
<1> sudo apt-get install linux-kernel-headers-{uname-r_output} <--- wht is the output ??
<0> maxyvits:: yes
<6> maxyvits: in theroy yes
<3> thanks Hex!
<0> kenas:: whatever appeared when you typed in uname-r in terminal
<0> maxyvits:: np
<9> kenas, type uname -r in console
<8> Healot: you might have noticed my vhost.
<1> k
<4> "sudo apt-get install linux-kernel-headers-$(uname -r)" is enough
<9> kenas, or easier still "sudo apt-get install linux-kernel-headers-`uname -r`"
<3> gnome are you saying it doesn't always work?
<4> and that's the exact command line :)
<9> oh nuts, Healot beat me to it...
<8> gnomefreak: thing is that that laptop is so old, installing on it ****s... thats why I'd prefer to do just an upgrade.
<6> maxyvits: no im saying that is how it should work
<0> Healot, DBO:: that[ a handy piece of info :) thanks
<3> but doesn't?
<3> :D
<4> erich: you should know better than me...
<6> erich: you can do it but more times than not it renders the os un usable
<8> Healot: yep, I've been installing debian packages on ubuntu and the other way round a few times. and I also know how to apt-pin to force all packages onto ubuntu versions.
<3> sorry I'm a university prof. terrible stickler.
<1> sudo apt-get install linux-kernel-headers-2.6.15-23-386 <---- this could be the command line ?
<0> well, folks... i need some sleep. Guten Tag!
<8> Healot: I had hoped that there was an howto somewhere I didn't find. or at least a list of typical issues.
<4> btw: even with pinning package version could lead to a disaster
<6> i thought it was linux-headers-2.6.12-23
<6> -386
<3> do you guys know if there's an open source alternative to Adobe Framemaker?
<6> !header
<5> gnomefreak: I haven't a clue, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
<6> !headers
<5> To install linux headers, open a console and type sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)
<3> I'm trying to switch to Ubuntu and I'd like to know if I can edit stuff I've created in Framemaker in some open source alternative
<6> kenas: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-2.6.15-23-386
<10> how can I Know which Sound Card has my pc ?
<3> I'm such a noob
<6> patch: lspci

<11> or si better to install them?
<10> thank's, gnomefreak
<12> hello
<12> do you know a program to copy dvds?
<3> do I have to do something in preferences to get it to launch url's?
<12> like dvdshrink or clonedvd for win
<8> Healot: well, you obviously need to pay attention to not losing e.g. your dhcp client package etc. people tend to not review package lists on upgrade, especially not on dist-upgrade... well, I'll try. I can still install from fresh if it doesn't work.
<13> hi anyone know of a good beginners guide (and i do mean beginner) to the horary hedgehog release?
<7> can someone please help me with a cups network printing question
<4> erich: most of the people come here and complain about broken upgrade...
<4> that's ubuntu's upgrade even...
<1> it says i need a C Compiler
<1> any suggestion ?
<4> I wish upgrade is as easy as NT-based OSes' :0
<6> kenas: sudo apt-get install build-essential
<10> gnomefreak: can you help me? in this post which is my sound card ? http:/pastebin.com/704197 ... I can't see some sound card !
<14> River, what's wrong ?
<4> 0000:00:1b.0 0403: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller (rev 01)
<4> there he is...
<3> is there a defrag program in ubuntu?
<3> is it even necessary?
<4> ext3/3 doesn't need defragmentation :-
<15> maxyvits, there is defrag, but it's not that necessary, no
<14> maxyvits, not really
<6> patch: you have an intel sound card
<16> How do I find a program for linux? I want a program which can read .chm, what should I search for?
<7> LinuxJones: I want to get my printer to be a network not local but I can't get it to work. Can you tell me where this is pointing to 'usb:/dev/usb/lp0'
<6> ok bbiab i need to change pcs
<14> Tobberoth, you can try searching for it using apt-cache search or synaptic
<15> Tobberoth, apt-cache search chm, in this case you probably want xchm
<16> I'm using synaptic, but when i search for chm, I get tons of results
<16> Ah yes, xchm is perfect
<16> thanks
<14> River, cups only listens on localhost by default, you need to make a small change to the config file
<10> yes but, gnomefreak I can't listen my sound in my machine, that's the reason that I want to know which model I have because I need to read more in alsa project
<4> xchm kchmviewer gnochm>> this one yay
<15> ("chm viewer" returned quite few results, by the way :)
<17> guys, i've an .avi file and i want to burn it so it can be played on a VCD/DVD player. what's the application to use?
<1> i already have installed build essential
<17> i tried k3b but it doesn't have option to create video discs/file
<16> ah, good idea to use viewer in the search.. however, in theory, what if I didn't know it was a text file?
<7> LinuxJones: does this still apply on Dapper or is there a GUI for this change ?
<16> I'm sorta confused with all this finding programs for linux ^^
<14> River, I can't remember which line you have to change but it's in /etc/cups/cupsd.conf (I believe)
<10> gnomefreak: o yes, I can see the model, thenk's
<1> None of the pre-built vmmon modules for VMware Workstation is suitable for your
<1> running kernel. <-------- this is what it says
<18> hi, anyone else expierence some screw-ups while listening to rhythmbox and in same time burning something to disc?
<7> LinuxJones: ok thanks, but can you please tell me where this link points to 'usb:/dev/usb/lp0' or how does the system know which usb port this is ?
<19> awesome! I finally got X to start.
<14> River, it finds the printer on the usb bus. You can have a look at your usb devices by doing lsusb
<19> wasn't too much involved, really
<20> how do i test my modem without connecting to the internet with it?
<21> Had the upgrade from 5.10 to 6.06 fail
<21> Encountered a problem with samba and cupsys
<21> They complained about the files in /etc/init.d/
<21> I removed /etc/init.d/samba and had samba configure succesfully
<21> I did the same with cupsys
<21> But /etc/init.d/samba did not come back by apt-get install samba --reinstall
<21> Now I wonder if it is safe to copy back the file I moved away to have samba configure succesfully
<21> Hello any/every/someone? :(
<22> what is the minimum system requirement for ubuntu 6.06?
<7> LinuxJones: yes, I have looked at the lsusb and the printer is listed as bus 002 device 004 but I still don't know which usb port it is using. Does this uri specify the usb port ? usb:/dev/usb/lp0'
<23> How can I install crontab?
<24> johan_, many speculate, tell us what you are thinking and we say yes no or maybe
<22> 128mb ram?
<25> johan_: it depends what software you want to run
<24> johan_, disk and video card please
<24> johan_, xubuntu should be okay on it, ubuntu might be a tad slow for your average user
