<0> i'm just sayin is all.
<1> and what exactly is "stock wine repo"?
<2> Ramnath, it's a conspiracy
<3> hi
<4> anyone know how i need to configure my fstab to have my second hard drive appear on my desktop?
<5> !tell Ramnath about repos
<6> cafuego :'( i keep getting this error
<2> !fstab
<7> the /etc/fstab file lists all drives and partitions but can be easily configured automatically with the diskmounter file found here http://www.ubuntulinux.nl/files/diskmounter See <partitions>.
<6> W: Couldn't stat source package list cdrom://Ubuntu 5.10 _Breezy Badger_ - Release i386 (20051012) breezy/main Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/Ubuntu%205.10%20%5fBreezy%20Badger%5f%20-%20Release%20i386%20(20051012)_dists_breezy_main_binary-i386_Packages) - stat (2 No such file or directory)
<6> (sorry for pasting :P )
<0> i dont like not being able to get the latest stuff...
<8> .oO(and they told me there was no cabal...)
<9> blanky: Insert your Ubuntu cd
<6> cafuego, do i neeeed to :(
<9> Xenguy: That was debian, surely.



<8> cafuego: hehe
<9> blanky: Not if you delete the apt-cdrom line from osurces.list
<3> I'm having a little problem
<5> Ramnath: if you install wine from the sourceforge repo, wine tools won't run
<6> cafuego, oooo
<3> trying to install fglrx drivers
<1> ah i see now
<4> randabis, what the hell is all that i did it before by changing my fstab
<1> so i get it from the universe and multiverse?
<3> I did the command: sudo m-a a-i fglrx
<3> and i got an error saying /usr/src/modules doesn't exist
<6> cafuego, I installed a program and I got that warning, but when i go to install it again it says '0 installed, 0 upgraded' and all that stuff
<6> so...should I just leave it? could it mean it worked?
<3> but I did sudo m-a prepare and sudo m-a update, so shouldn't that have been created or something
<10> So I need to install linux-headers, and found a bunch with apt-cache search, but how do I tell which one I should install?
<0> mmm. thrice
<5> Ramnath: correct
<2> TylerWalts, you need the one that is for the kernel you are running
<2> !kernel
<11> Does anyone know the apt / sed or awk foo to show the number of packages available in the repositories?
<10> !kernel
<12> !+kernel
<2> hmm
<2> did ubotu die?
<2> !fstab
<7> the /etc/fstab file lists all drives and partitions but can be easily configured automatically with the diskmounter file found here http://www.ubuntulinux.nl/files/diskmounter See <partitions>.
<2> nope
<8> alicia: perhaps: dpkg -l |wc -l ?
<5> alicia: something like 'apt-cache search \* | wc'
<2> guess he doesn't know !kernel
<13> alicia: you mean apt-cache stats?
<3> has anyone installed the fglrx drivers?
<2> jquixote, yes
<3> randabis: I'm having trouble installing it
<2> jquixote, but I used the one included in restricted modules
<14> hi guys.
<5> jquixote: yup - works like a charm - for best results, use the seveas repo
<8> alicia: nope it shows the number of packages installed I think
<2> os[Linux 2.6.15-18-amd64-k8 x86_64] distro[Debian testing/unstable] cpu[1 x AMD Turion(tm) 64 Mobile Technology ML-32 @ 796MHz] mem[Physical : 1443MB, 65.1% free] disk[Total : 223.00GB, 60.00% Free] video[ATI Technologies Inc ATI Radeon XPRESS 200M 5955] sound[ATIIXP - ATI IXP]
<2> jesus
<2> I gotta stop doing that
<3> randabis: the instructions told me to remove restricted modules
<14> I'm trying to get a rio mp3 player to work with Ubuntu, anyone know how I can use it ?
<2> sorry fellas
<3> randabis: I have the m300
<3> sweet box though
<5> jquixote: read the docs - not sure fglrx supports m300
<15> RemyLaptop: plug it in
<14> dabaR have done, nothing seems to happen
<2> frogzoo, it supports the m200 at least
<3> frogzoo: damn
<11> Xenguy: no, thats easy. I mean using apt-cache blah blah | wc -l
<2> 200m
<11> FlannelKing: correct
<16> hi all
<6> i feel like cussing like never before
<2> jquixote, well, fglrx is included in restricted modules
<17> hi. I'm trying to get root using an Ubuntu LiveCD. I don't remember setting a root p***word, and an empty string fails. what should I try?
<3> randabis: well, my only problem is that /usr/src/modules isn't found in the install process
<13> !rootsudo
<7> By default, the root p***word is locked in Ubuntu. Look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo for all information.



<13> cheal, read that.
<6> !ati
<7> methinks ati is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI or http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=24557&page=1&pp=10 or http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=423589
<5> jquixote: as I say, _I'm not sure_ so check the docs - fglrx doesn't support everything ;)
<2> jquixote, I didn't install fglrx that way so I don't know...
<3> randabis: are you familiar with the fglrx installation how-to?
<11> Xenguy: Kind of a hack, but just about every word in english has a vowel so this should be close: apt-cache search [aeiou] | wc -l
<2> jquixote, depends on which one you are using...there is more than one method
<11> thanks guys
<16> a quick question, what's the nice easy way Gnome/GUI/Nautilus way to find out how much disk space is remaining on a device/directory (as opposed to just using 'df')
<2> I've seen several how-tos on fglrx
<16> what would be *sweet* is an applet or something that'll tell you how much space you have in /home
<18> RemyLaptop: http://packages.ubuntu.com/breezy/sound/rio and ri0500
<2> the method I found that is the easiest was to use the fglrx from restricted modules
<3> randabis: are you telling me that from dapper, all I have to do to is pretty much dpkg -i *fglrx* or whatever?
<12> Derailed, right click and hit properties?
<6> Taken from a wiki page "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg #Select the ATI driver"
<17> FlannelKing: hum, I don't feel like learning sudo, but I haven't set *any* p***word anyway
<18> RemyLaptop: er, rio500
<6> would that be the same as editing xorg.conf and putting ati as the driver?
<6> cafuego?
<13> cheal: you set your user p***word, correct? sudo is just like su.
<15> cheal: use "sudo ls" and use your p***word.
<19> Derailed: it automatically tells you when you dont select anything in nautilus
<2> jquixote, pretty much...a little more to it than that, but not much more
<8> alicia: looks plausible (but there has to be a more elegant solution surely :-)
<6> cafugo yoohoo buddy! please help :(
<14> carlk, thanks, will check it out!
<17> FlannelKing/dabaR: I don't remember setting *any* p***word
<16> Toma-: it does indeed, thanks :-)
<11> Xenguy: I've seen it before... but can't remember it meh
<18> RemyLaptop: yer welcome
<6> is "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg #Select the ATI driver" the same as editing xorg.conf and adding "ati" as the driver or whatever
<13> cheal: so, is this a liveCD? or what
<3> will I have to have /usr/src/modules present? and if not, how do I make that show up? I installed build essentials
<20> alicia: do you want to know the number of packages installed, or available?
<16> thrice`: that mostly works, except it's hard to click 'nowhere' when you're in list view
<21> Hi, I am converting a few systems to Ubuntu from RedHat -- is there an equivalent tool to RedHat's 'chkconfig'? If so, what is the standard cmd line tool on Ubuntu for managing init scripts?
<17> FlannelKing: yes, I'm trying to use it as a rescue CD
<11> gebharra: available. Hence using apt-cache. Installed is easy with dpkg -l | wc -l
<12> Derailed, learn to use command, tis the linux way :)
<13> cheal: (you should've said so): ubuntu is the user, no p***word.
<20> i see.
<10> How do I install the kernel source?
<20> that would still give you the wrong answer tho :)
<0> how are the dapper gui admin tools shaping up as compared to ubuntu's?
<3> I just had a great idea
<22> can easyubuntu bork my system?
<17> FlannelKing: he... (you should probably read what people say instead)
<16> thrice`: LOL :-) I been command-line-boy since '98, but I'm trying to teach my dad how to move away from Windows XP
<0> err. kubuntu's gui admin tools
<11> fridge: update-rc.d
<19> IdleOne: not really....
<3> for anyone here that spends time helping people here, I just had a great idea
<22> Toma-> ok then Ill give it a shot
<13> cheal: ah, youre right. sorry, doing a few things at once.
<16> thrice`: With ubuntu, I have a real chance if it being successful, but I want everything to be as easy as possible
<6> cafuego, !!! you there
<11> fridge: 'chkconfig --del service' is 'update-rc.d -f service remove'
<12> Derailed, ah; I gotcha
<3> integrate paypal into irc and each user can have a tip jar.. and if the user feels helped, they can tip you!
<14> carlk, do you know how I can check what port it is on ?
<17> FlannelKing: thanks, I set root p***word and succeeded to login
<12> Derailed, wish I could help more; but most of my file management is done in console :|
<19> jquixote: call me crazy, but id rather go un-rewarded
<9> blanky: no, I ran away
<6> YAY
<16> thrice`: Nope that's plenty of help :-) maybe I'll start looking at the gnome applet coding API... I'm surprised there isn't just a quick diskfree applet
<21> alicia: Oh, thank you ever so much! It should be quite trivial for me to port my cfengine scripts across to Ubuntu now :D
<3> Toma-: that's noble, but imagine the dynamics.. you'd have more people trying to help people, opening PMs etc
<1> ...
<6> hey cafuego, is "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg #Select the ATI driver" the same as making ati for the driver in xorg.conf cuase i hate xorg-setup thingy
