<0> I am installing now, but I cant view the whole wizard in the resolution the install is in(640x480) and I can not change it, have lcd that supports 1280x1024 and built in nvidia card mc 400 or something like that with 32 mb shared ram
<1> frying_fish: parse error: Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
<2> all my buttons with this radeon is screwed up
<3> !ati
<1> from memory, ati is http://doc.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/hardware.html#installatidriver or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI ... the radeon 9200 and below are supported by the open-source drivers
<4> Spec, no, last.fm player figures out songs to play from other users lists who like the same bands you do.
<5> Samus_Aran: is there a more eloquent way to get it into my PATH?
<6> I got XP at the moment on the first hard disk with Grub. However I want to remove XP. and make that first hard disk a hard disk that I can save stuff to from Linux. How I do that?
<7> where does xchat keep its logs?
<6> and Linux of course is on second hard disk
<8> samuli: But in the beginning you choose bands or do you just play your own music and it p***ively collects data?
<9> ToHellWithGA: just what I said: a launcher script, in /usr/bin, which does cd /wherever/you/put/it; ./filename "$@"
<3> sebastiann: just copy the files to the partition, then use fdisk / gparted to format the other one.
<2> frying_fish: lol @ the link
<5> Samus_Aran: what is "$@" ?
<3> samuli: xmms / bmp can both do that aswell with the audio-scrobbler plugin
<9> ToHellWithGA: then anyone can run it by typing 'launchername'
<6> frying_fish copy what files to what partition?
<3> yuppie: what link?
<4> Spec, yeah, and you can have last.fm play bands similar to say King Crimson.
<9> ToHellWithGA: it p***es along any command line parameters
<2> frying_fish: some retard thinks you have to reboot after any X change :)
<3> sebastiann: whatever you want to back up
<9> ToHellWithGA: so if you go: launchername --help
<4> frying_fish: that is last.fm
<2> frying_fish: on the ATI driver page
<5> ok
<6> from the NTFS XP partion to Linux? how?
<3> samuli: yes I know, but not using the specific player, just a plugin to those players
<5> and that launcher script can be a shell script like you taught me about earlier, right?
<3> by mounting the partition
<3> and just copying them
<10> rpm -qa | grep kernel
<10> what does this mean ?
<3> yuppie: oh ok.
<8> evil
<11> bummer, forums currently offline @_@
<6> frying_fish I am still not that good with Linux. so how do I mount it?
<12> !ati
<8> kenas: rpm isn't really used in ubuntu...
<1> ati is probably http://doc.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/hardware.html#installatidriver or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI ... the radeon 9200 and below are supported by the open-source drivers
<13> what is intel pentium m???
<4> frying_fish: audioscobbler isn't a player.. it just collects and sends song data to last.fm
<3> rabidphage: a processor.
<8> rabidphage: intel's mobile processor i think
<13> is it p4 or just pentium m
<10> so hw can i download the modules of vmware ??
<14> NoUse: thanks.. i'll check it out
<3> samuli: yes I know, hence I said it was just a plugin for xmms / bmp
<11> rabidphage: an Intel Pentium M is the mobile chip.
<13> i'm trying to configure the kernel
<8> rabidphage: what's your processor?
<11> its a pretty good chip really, low mhz but it does a lot more work per cycle, than a P4 for example
<8> rabidphage: if you're not entirely sure, look at: cat /proc/cpuinfo
<3> rabidphage: not a good idea if you don't even know basic things like that.
<8> frying_fish+1
<13> pentium m 740 and it has the celeron sticker
<4> frying_fish: not sure what your point was then.. audioscobbler is built-in in amarok, banshee and rhythmbox for example.
<10> or how can i update the kernel ?
<4> frying_fish: but without the last.fm player you can't access the real goodies of last.fm
<10> so that vmWare works fine ?
<13> its says somewhere that the celeron is actually p4 where as pentium m is modified p3
<11> kenas, you installing VMWare at the moment?
<3> my point is that why should the guy mess around with getting the player from last.fm which may not work well, when you can use most features in the other plugins.
<10> i have it installed already
<15> Hey, when I installed Ubuntu, I was never asked to set a root p***word. Anyone know what the default root p***word is?
<11> I installed the VMWare tools earlier today, on a fresh ubuntu 6.06 :)
<10> i upgraded ubuntu
<11> I did an apt-get install build-essential
<10> and it doesnt work
<8> cparker: there is none
<3> cparker: there isn't a root account.
<3> unless you enable it
<15> ...
<8> cparker: the first user can do: sudo su -
<8> cparker: and type their own p***word
<15> seriously? odd
<6> kenas you installing VMware player? apparnatlly the free VMware server is much better
<8> cparker: and you'll have a root command line, but it's not recommended
<4> frying_fish: you can't listen to last.fm radio without the player? That's the whole point of last.fm not to collect and show your song data
<3> or sudo -i / sudo -s / sudo bash or other ways.
<8> cparker: You shouldn't really ever be 'logged in' as root, you can just use sudo to access any command you need to run as root
<3> oh right, well ok then,
<8> !sudo
<1> somebody said sudo was a command that will let users run commands as root. Look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo for all information.
<13> i wan't the kernel optimised.. i don't know if its 686 or 386
<16> is vmware-player in synaptic what i need to install vmware?
<8> read that, cparker
<10> well i have my partition done
<10> and everything working fine
<3> rabidphage: oh dear, you really shouldn't be doing that then
<10> and since i upgraded this has stopped working
<10> any help ?
<13> please tell me if you know
<11> the only complicated bit of installing VMWare tools was finding the linux header files.. it looks @ something like /src/linux/include when it should be /src/linux-2.6.15-23-386/include
<3> rabidphage: google maybe?
<16> is vmware-player in synaptic what i need to install vmware?
<5> how can i change ownership of a file?
<3> ToHellWithGA: chmod
<13> frying_fish: google is inundated with people trying to sell me the processors..
<11> ToHellWithGA: right click > properties > permissions :)
<13> frying_fish: i can't think of a query good enough to sort through the mess
<5> Snellgrove: you so crazy. what if my GUI crashes? what then?
<11> lol
<11> well, yeah..use chmod :p
<11> but I dont know the numbers
<3> well, then learn how to use it better.
<11> 644 is read...or something for folders and they use 755 a lot too lol
<3> 7 = rwx
<3> 5 = rx , and its UserGroupOthers
<11> anyway, your GUI shouldn't crash.. your using LINUX ;) theres no scary explorer.exe
<17> hmm
<3> Snellgrove: true, that won't break the system what he's doing, and even if something does break its just a kill -9 away from fixing usually
<18> how do i completely remove kubuntu and return to regular ubuntu?
<6> you just remove it
<6> KDE
<6> stuff
<18> i did
<11> aye, if a program dies a death on me (earlier, a nice Java program did) I just fire up a terminal and use xkill and click on the dieing program... woosh, it goes bye bye :D
<18> but i still get kubuntu splash screen
<6> ah yes
<16> is vmware-player in synaptic what i need to install vmware?
<6> well when I upgraded on both my PC to lap top
<18> and now kde and gdm dont do anything at all
<19> so.. any way i could check a version number of a libxxxx.so file by command?
<6> from Breezy to Dapper
<6> I got the Kubuntu splash screen
<15> Thanks for your help, everyone. It'll take a little while to get used to how Ubuntu does things. I've just started using Ubuntu... I'm a Debian veteran.
<6> however I had both Gnome and KDE instaleld
<6> can you log in with gdm?
<11> JohnsonE: probably thats the one yes, if in doubt http://www.vmware.com will have one that'll work, the installers they have are pretty good :)
<18> gdm doesnt load now
<20> !bugs
<18> i just log in command line
<20> !bug
<1> bugs are reported to https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bugs
<9> goodbye
<6> I think you have to re install GDM
<6> then
<18> and init X with startx
<6> as for the Kubntu splash screen that's the least important
<6> ,but I think pretty easy to fix
<3> yeah it is easy to fix
<21> question how to install : jdk 5.0 using apt-get?
<22> whats the word on goobuntu, or was that just a myth
<3> I can't remember which package it is, but its just dpk-reconfigure (whatever name it is)
<18> reinstalling
<3> anyway, must go people
<2> damn :/
<23> whats goobuntu?
<2> anyone have a radeon 7000?
