<0> well, rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FileCompression
<1> elkbuntu, i am getting your PM, and replying, but you don't seem to be able to see it
<2> chell, ^^^^^^^^^^
<3> gnomefreak, it
<4> altwizard, i dont know about all the software, but it's what i needed to make amarok work
<3> er
<5> I do not want to access RAR files through the archive manager
<6> chuckyp: yeah, that was what I was thinking. Why would it be pointless? ;)
<3> gnomefreak, its a question.
<7> chell: do you want to make a rar file?
<8> No, it couldn't really be done on a FAT32 fs as an image, because there's a 2.1GB file limit and Ubuntu takes up that much just for a basic install.
<4> blrich, is your nick registered on freenode?
<1> elkbuntu, that would be it
<2> Gorth-, There are all sorts of reasons that I don't really want to get into here.
<3> chuckyp, hah.
<2> Gorth-, maybe some people on #ubuntu-offtopic



<5> again no. I have a progam here right. It requires a tool named "rar" (it's a command line tool) to run
<1> elkbuntu, reg'd now
<6> chuckyp: That's ok.
<2> !tell chell about rar
<3> nhaines, there isnt a 2.1gb file limit on fat32. were you thinking about fat?
<9> hello. i'm new in linux at all, and i've got lot of questions. the first one: how can i get acces to my ntfs partitions?
<2> chell, rar is a compressed file?
<5> there IS a command line tool. It is called rar
<5> I need it
<3> xbit_, well, see the topic.
<2> chell, well if you would read the fn link you would have it already
<8> Oh, on FAT32 is it 4.xGB?
<5> really?
<3> nhaines, No.
<10> anyone knows what the "$str" means in shellscript?
<3> nhaines, fat32 worked for me on a 20gb hd
<10> i mean what the " " dose
<3> nhaines, (in windows)
<5> I did read it
<2> chell, really because its riht here in the link https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FileCompression#head-32ba956d13d49934f65bf67dd40646653a7a6140
<5> I read it
<2> Well then I can't help you.
<5> it doesn't say where or how to get the nonfree rar tool
<8> kbrooks, I not talking about partition size limits, I'm talking about file size limits.
<7> sp3ed: check the abs guide in your repos or try #ubuntu-offtopic for programming needs
<7> !rar
<0> rar is, like, a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FileCompression
<2> chell, if you refuse to read the link i'm not going to waste the time explaining it. I even sent you a direct link to the section you need to read.
<7> it says non-free adn gives a link
<11> http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=184006
<5> I did read the link mate
<3> nhaines, well, i havent testred that on win32
<12> hi. what program do you use for recording from your analogue tv card?
<5> sorrsy
<5> I am just having a bad day
<3> nhaines, and now: what is the partition size limit for fat32?
<11> You cannot create a file larger than (2^32)-1 bytes (this is one byte less than 4 GB) on a FAT32 partition.
<11> 2tb i think
<11> The maximum disk size is approximately 8 terabytes when you take into account the following variables: The maximum possible number of clusters on a FAT32 volume is 268,435,445, and there is a maximum of 32 KB per cluster, along with the space required for the file allocation table (FAT).
<13> chell http://www.ubuntuguide.org/#rar
<2> Gorth-, http://www.maxpc.co.uk/tips/default.asp?pagetypeid=2&articleid=7192&subsectionid=718&subsubsectionid=563 there good read for your fat32 idea
<3> jafdet, dont recommend this ubuntu guide
<14> I've searched the forums trying to find out how to install MySQL5, but there are references to alot of things that I don't understand and some suggests that I should compile it myself, are there no package for MySQL5?
<13> kbrooks, why?
<3> its (no, you dont need to apologize) out of date and unofficial
<2> !mysql5
<0> Syntax error in line 1. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, chuckyp
<2> Lani2, there is something about it in the wiki
<13> kbrooks, ok, tnx
<2> Lani2, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MYSQL5FromSource
<3> jafdet, let me check though
<14> chuckyp: yes, but in the forums they suggest against doing that?
<2> Lani2, against doing it from source?
<2> Lani2, why?
<3> jafdet, yeah checked the site and its the old ubuntu guide
<3> jafdet, i wasnt sure if i was right.
<8> Ah, a fellow Californian. Welcome, subadditive. :)
<14> chuckyp: because it only has default language encoding and is compiled in with static linking that breaks many stuff and so on
<3> !ubuntuguide
<0> methinks ubuntuguide is out of date, reported to break a lot and generally a bad source for information. Use help.ubuntu.com or wiki.ubuntu.com instead
<3> jafdet, ^^^



<2> Lani2, well then I don't know how else you'd do it unless you find a deb somewhere.
<13> kbrooks, i see
<14> chukyp: yes they say that there is a deb, that have worked for many people, but I don't eaven know what a deb is?
<2> !tell Lani2 about deb
<7> what app are we looking for?
<2> gnomefreak, mysql5
<7> ill look for a deb
<2> Lani2, a deb is just a package that installs the software for you.
<14> chuckyp: ah ok
<8> I have a question. I need to specify the default gateway device for one of my Breezy computers. On startup, it has no network connection, but going into network-admin and selecting eth0 makes it all work.
<7> chuckyp: you on breezy by chance?
<15> Is it possible to have only the nautilus file browser on xubuntu, and not have the nautilus desktop?
<15> like still being able to right-click for the menu and so on
<7> Lani2: are you on breezy also?
<16> I'm trying to make something, but almost immediately I get the following "error cfgfile.c:35:20: error: curses.h: No such file or directory" and then everything goes down the tubes. Does this mean anything to anyone?
<15> bjornkri, sudo apt-get install curses
<14> gnomefreak: eh, i think so ;)
<13> Lani2, actuly deb is just an ar archive
<17> Howitzer: yes i believe so, you'll just have to make sure that nautilus isn't set to start up when you login.
<14> gnomefreak: i've started to understand that ubuntu names there versions? so that 5.10 is named breezy? is that asumption correct?
<7> Lani2: apt-cache search shows me mysql5 but im not on breezy what does yours say when you run that
<7> Lani2: yes
<2> gnomefreak, really I don't see it.
<16> Howitzer: no such thing, but there is something called libcurses4, how does that sound?
<7> chuckyp: on dapper?
<15> dsas, but when i start nautilus in the term, i get the usual ubuntu desktop with its wallpaper and icons
<2> gnomefreak, what'd you search for? yeah on dapper
<7> let me policy for it
<15> bjornkri, yep that's the one
<2> err never mind.
<16> libncurses, actually
<17> Howitzer: i think you have to use nautilus --no-desktop or something
<15> hmm
<15> ty
<2> Lani2, try apt-cache search mysql-server
<18> In wich directory is located my ntfs partition??
<8> Lani2, they're codenames. :) Breezy Badger is the current release, and Dapper Drake will be the next one in April or May.
<15> woo
<15> it worked
<15> thanks a lot!
<17> Howitzer: no probs.
<2> Ropechoborra, its not in any directory yet. Unless you mounted it
<2> !tell Ropechoborra about ntfs
<14> chuckyup: i only get version 4.1 when i do a apt-cache search
<14> nhaines: ok :)
<2> Lani2, when you do a search for mysql-server
<7> chuckyp: its in main repo for dapper apt-cache policy mysql-client-5.0 :)
<2> ?
<14> chuckyp: yes
<18> chuckyp, Ajap, so i type "mount /mnt /<what?>
<2> gnomefreak, I know i found it I wasn't seeing it searching for mysql I had to search for mysql-server
<2> Ropechoborra, just read the site that ubotu sent you.
<7> ah
<18> chuckyp, ok thankx
<7> the thing im thinking is i dont think breezy came with 5.0 (not really sure though)
<2> Ropechoborra, it will explain stuff better than i will.
<19> hai
<2> Lani2, yeah I don't believe 5 is availible. unless through a backport for breezy but you may be able to find a deb and install that.
<19> hai
<14> chuckyp: ok, but drapper drake isn't final? and maybe nothing for a linux newbe to install at this time?
<7> Lani2: correct
<14> ok
<7> dapper not drapper
<7> ;)
<14> ah ok :)
<3> Lani2, dapper drake might not be released on april 20. it might be in may (6 week proposal...)
<8> Lani2, dapper is scheduled for 20 April 2006, but may be delayed 6 weeks to add more polish. They'll make that decision soon.
<20> good afternoon, has anyone some information on the Intel 875i chipset? (canterwood)
<20> cuz Ubuntu works
<3> nhaines, in 2 days, actually.
<7> tuesday :)
<3> nhaines, two meetings on tuesday
