<0> wonder_: please don't advise that
<1> ?
<2> Scorchsaber, did you do apt-get install ubuntu-desktop ?
<3> tritium, how am i supposed to take it? :)
<4> no...
<0> nico8481: hmm?
<4> um, if it matters, gnome hasn't been working since a power failure
<1> tritium: what do you mean?
<3> tritium, i mean what do you mean :)
<2> Scorchsaber, do that and see if you are missing any necessary xorg packages
<5> For Gnome apt-get install gnome For KDE apt-get install kde, works for me. :)
<0> wonder_: it's preferable to use ubuntu packages, not downloads off of nvidia.com or ati.com
<3> tritium, about the language having evolved
<6> ChildOfGod: those are the debian meta packages, not ubuntu's
<5> Are they?
<7> nickrud: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10078 ?



<8> hello all, im wondering what is the "ubuntu way", if it exists one, to download and install a new kernel?
<1> ok
<8> or does it have to be done by hand?
<1> but i installed the ubuntu package too
<1> didn't work
<1> thats why i have tried the nvidia package
<0> nico8481: "purity" is relative. English has many German, Greek, Latin root words..
<2> Scorchsaber, is it downloading anything ?
<4> did the apt-get install ubuntu-desktop, nothing downloaded
<9> hello! i have a question and hope you can help me. i would like to add something in my sourcelist. but i have no permission to do so. how can i get it?
<10> In synaptic, I downloaded and installed the 686 kernel.
<6> Makura: but, gedit opened, right? (those are transient failures)
<0> wonder_: perhaps you didn't follow the wiki instructions thoroughly?
<5> Sorry, i always chane the sources.list file.
<5> *change
<3> ah uh yeah maybe....
<7> nickrud: The conf was blank
<2> Scorchsaber, ok 1 last thing to try do dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
<6> ChildOfGod: no, those meta's are in ubuntu as well
<11> hi all
<6> Makura: close, and reopen. You probably mistyped the path -> /etc/X11/xorg.conf
<3> tritium, so what? you would advocate learning the american one instead of the british one? :)
<5> I ususally use FluxBox, nice desktop. :)
<2> Scorchsaber, nvidia should be listed when you get to the video card driver settings select that and leave everything else default unless you know for sure what it is.
<0> nico8481: I didn't advocate anything.
<8> xfce rules
<7> nickrud: The path is correct
<10> erg0t_: Sure does.
<3> tritium, i know, that's why i used the conditionnal (would) ;-)
<12> is there a quickpar app?
<4> did that
<8> Jimmey__, oh, what is it??
<0> nico8481: I'd probably make that decision based on regional preferences
<2> Scorchsaber, try re-starting gdm again arrow up till you see the line again
<10> erg0t_, XFCE?
<9> @all: do you know how to get permission to change the sourcelist?
<6> Makura: cut and paste this exactly: gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
<13> sudo vi
<8> Jimmey__, i like it, yes. (xfce)
<3> tritium, hmm nice idea :)
<10> erg0t_, I know, it rules.
<5> sudo -i use your user name p***word.
<7> nickrud: Same thing happens. Do I need to cd?
<8> Jimmey__, oh yes it does. lightweight and beautiful.
<4> just says that it's stopping and starting gnome, with oks by both
<8> heh.
<3> tritium, anyway for the system's language i think the wiser choice is to select the one offering the most available stuff (docs, translations etc) isn't it?
<4> nothibng else
<0> nico8481: perhaps so
<10> erg0t_, I think there's going to be an Xubuntu Dapper release.
<3> :-)
<2> Scorchsaber, hit ctrl + alt + F7
<12> anyone know of a app to run par2 files?
<14> Hi, is there command set of erasing one of the files out of the rc*.d directories?
<12> like quickpar
<15> !info gpar
<12> ?
<8> Jimmey__, no shiat?
<6> Makura: what version of ubuntu are you using?
<8> Jimmey__, sweet.
<0> rsyncx: update-rc.d



<14> for debian
<14> tritium, thanks!
<2> Scorchsaber, do you see gnome ?
<7> nickrud: Ubuntu Breezy 5.10
<4> it nowsays that the X server is now disabled, and to restart GDM when it is reconfigured correctly
<0> rsyncx: sure. You'll want to see the manpage for full details. :)
<14> tritium, just a n00b from gentoo lol.
<4> Should I just reinstall ubuntu with my Nvidia card in?
<0> rsyncx: welcome :)
<4> instead of ATI?
<6> Makura: then that should work. try this one in a terminal: sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
<10> 'n00b from gentoo' - Do they exist?
<0> Scorchsaber: no, follow the wiki page for nvidia
<2> Scorchsaber, ok well you can go back and use the vesa driver to get gnome back up and running
<6> Makura: be sure to have the first X capitalized
<0> Scorchsaber: all you need to do is install the nvidia packages, reconfigure xserver-xorg, and you should be fine
<7> nickrud: Copied and pasted, it worked.
<7> nickrud: Looks strange to navigate though
<14> Jimmey__, debian core in whole lot better shape since 1999, when i tried it first with deselect and proto-emacsian keystrokes
<6> Makura: page up, page down, arrow keys, and the like
<4> I get the vague feeling reinstalling will fix everything
<4> and if it doesn't, at least I'll have GNOME back up
<8> rsyncx, hi
<10> lol, did I just get pwnd?
<7> nickrud: Yeah, it's easy. Nevermind!
<0> Scorchsaber: not necessary, and too much h***le
<14> erg0t_, eh sup
<4> LinuxJones?
<11> hey guys... was trying to make ubuntu recognise my ps2 mouse by editing the xorg.conf file which i did, but each time i did it i restarted and got an error to do with the xserver, something graphical, so that all i got was the black and white writing. after rebooting a few times i gave up and reinstalled linux. it worked fine again, but then when i tried to edit the xorg.conf file it did it again! i re installed again and dont dare
<11> touch the xorg.conf file but im still worried it will do it again so i dont dare reboot. anyone know whats going on?
<6> Scorchsaber: does the file /var/log/Xorg.0.log (at the end) tell you anything?
<8> rsyncx, eh. lol. so canadian.
<2> Scorchsaber, run dpkg-reconfigure again and select vesa as the video driver
<16> hola
<7> nickrud: And to save?
<17> !w32codecs
<18> somebody said w32codecs was a compilation of binary win32 A/V codecs for many popular proprietary formats not currently supported by free implementations under linux. See http://tinyurl.com/e4a5s to install
<14> erg0t_, meh
<6> Makura: ctl-x , and save
<14> erg0t_, know srbaker/
<7> nickrud: I appreciate all the help!
<4> umm... I can't exit the screen saying X server isn't configured
<4> Maybe I should just reinstall
<6> Makura: no problem, I had to learn that stuff for a crappy monitor of my own once
<0> Scorchsaber: that's not necessary, I've said.
<2> Scorchsaber, hit escape key
<19> hi
<14> erg0t_, u canadian?
<19> can anyone tell me how to remove the boot-splash???
<8> rsyncx, lol, nah
<8> rsyncx, Mexican
<4> escape key does nothing
<8> rsyncx, aye carumba
<7> nickrud: What suprises me is that the LCD monitor for the other computer (which I can't pilfer, sadly =P) is brighter than this one (CRT)
<6> Makura: go figure
<14> erg0t_, eh, send me some of that cheap tequila
<0> Scorchsaber: sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx, then sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, and setup nvidia...
<7> nickrud: Oh well, this method works great.
<8> rsyncx, hahahahaha
<8> rsyncx, sure man, but will take that literally
<11> hey guys... was trying to make ubuntu recognise my ps2 mouse by editing the xorg.conf file which i did, but each time i did it i restarted and got an error to do with the xserver, something graphical, so that all i got was the black and white writing. after rebooting a few times i gave up and reinstalled linux. it worked fine again, but then when i tried to edit the xorg.conf file it did it again! i re installed again and dont dare

<8> rsyncx, will send you the cheapest
<2> Scorchsaber, can you do ctrl+alt+F3
<4> I can't get to the console, there's this screen saying X server is not configured, and I can't get out of it
<8> rsyncx, you know, the one that leaves you blind?
<4> Ill try that...
<6> yezariael: in /boot/grub/menu.lst , remove the references to splash
<2> Scorchsaber, arrow up to the dpkg-reconfigure line
<4> exited
<19> nickrud: hmm. i use yaboot, but i'll see if i can find a similar line there
<6> yezariael: I've never yaboot'd , so I can't help
<14> erg0t_, you haven't tried anything if you haven't tried dollar 1.5 liter russian vodka
