<2> hey guys im in synaptic but which java do i install?
<2> ??
<3> charchuck: don't do that again please
<4> stone, is that just as good?
<0> tritium, my fault, I should have said, "go to pastebin.com, and paste it there" :(
<5> Apostle^ yes. that is the idea. zero in on the exact culpret. then you will know what needs to be done. as long as the condition is "doesn't work" it's kinda hard to fix... when the error is known then a course of action becomes plain.
<3> dli: no problem :)
<1> I'm sorry... Someone asked to see the error message. Like I said, I'm new to all of this.
<6> silvalynin: i dunno. never used it before, but a close friend mad it
<7> intelikey, i think the whole MB is fried for some reason
<3> charchuck: it's no problem :)
<2> um can someone help?
<0> charchuck, yes, but I said, "pastebin it" :( ask ubotu about pastebin
<7> intelikey, even though visual inspection reveals no damaged
<8> charchuck, next time, use pastebin: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
<4> oo, anyway to just get the original file working?
<6> ok time for this little boy to go to bed
<6> i gotta walk the woman to the bus at 9am
<5> Apostle^ it indeed can be. one other thing. have you replaced the cpu to see if it's a core falt ?
<6> goodnight, friends. thank you all much for your patience and ***istance
<9> mugzie, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats?highlight=%28restricted%29#head-e2ebd70ede0e3eb2117ffbd618d2295dd1540dca
<9> stone_, later
<1> Heh, sorry. I thought it was a typo and you just meant paste. Sorry. =]
<4> nite
<2> no no im in synpatic like everyone told me to
<1> Thanks for the address though.
<4> so, can anyone help me with getting Flash installed?
<2> u just wanna know what java file do i download i want the run time
<7> intelikey, l don't have another pentium 4 to put in it, i'm going to take it to the shop i guess.
<0> !ubotu tell silvalynin about flash
<5> Apostle^ putting that cpu in another box would be a good test. (even at a shop)
<9> silvalynin, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats?highlight=%28restricted%29 look for the flash section
<2> but im kinda confused'
<4> alright, thanks both of you
<0> silvalynin, I like firefox because I really hate flash :(
<9> mugzie, the jre
<7> intelikey, yea, i wonder how much they charge for a problem find, estimate whatever you want to call it, maybe even free if you have them do the work
<2> ok
<3> Good night, all
<9> later tritium
<3> see you cdubya
<2> wait i dont see a fre sorry if i seem stupid :(
<2> jre i meant
<5> Apostle^ well this is not an official computer shop. but we've never charged for diagnosis. it generates more business if people feel like you are trying to help them...
<9> mugzie, yeah, if you click on the link in the wiki there to http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/download.jsp
<7> intelikey, yea, this is a local pc shop i'm going to take it to so maybe free
<10> Hi all, how do you mount a "Linux LVM" partition? I've been trying with just "mount /dev/hda5 /blah" but it tells me to specify a filesystem.
<7> intelikey, i know bestbuy is $50
<9> mugzie, then scroll down to the JRE installer link
<2> ok
<2> got ya now
<5> ok back to my code. luck with it Apostle^
<7> intelikey, thanks, later
<9> mugzie, just follow those wiki docs to the t and you should be good to go.
<11> Is there a way to switch whether the sound goes out the speakers or the headphone jack on a laptop?
<2> cduya should i get the rpm self extracting or the.....regular self extracting
<1> All right! Fixed the problem. Thanks guys.
<12> How do I edit my resolutions?
<12> I know my card and monitor support 1280x1024
<9> mugzie, get the .bin file
<12> But it's at 1152x864 now.
<2> there both.bin
<2> ones rpm tho
<13> ubotu tell njdavid about fixres
<2> ones rpm.bin
<4> hmm how would I be able to access all of my music that's on my Windows partition?
<9> mugzie, download the one that says "Linux self-extracting file"
<13> Centaur5: double-click on the volume applet - I have a separate Headphone volume slider
<9> silvalynin, mount the partition
<13> !mountwindows
<14> Download and run http://www.ubuntulinux.nl/files/diskmounter to make your windows or mac partitions mount automatically. If you wish to set it up yourself by hand, read: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions
<12> bimberi, I've already done that and added it when I reconfigured, it's not available as an option in preferences.
<11> bimberi: Okay, I already checked that. I guess there probably isn't good enough support for my sound card.
<15> does ubuntu have an internal firewall like windows?
<13> njdavid: hmmk
<13> Centaur5: do you have the ALSA mixer selected (File -> Change Device)?
<11> bimberi: Yeah, there's just master and pcm
<16> !fixres
<14> Help to fix the display resolution is available at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto
<0> miguelsr, don't worry about it, ubuntu is secure by default, while windows in insecure by default
<13> Centaur5: ok, i'm out then sorry :|
<4> bimberi can you tell me how I would go about running diskmounter, i'm a complete linux noob, this is my first time ever using it
<5> light weight text and graphical user friendly.
<9> silvalynin, it tells you how on that wiki link he gave earlier
<11> bimberi: Thanks, it's not your fault. I just read that I should be able to adjust that and I wanted to double check that I was doing it right.
<5> in the repos
<9> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions
<4> "Save this file on your local hard drive"
<4> save the web page?
<13> silvalynin: yes
<13> silvalynin: then open a terminal, 'cd Desktop' (or wherever it saved the file) and 'sudo bash diskmounter'
<4> alright i did it, thanks
<17> Hey, can anybody tell me how I can grep a man page?
<5> grte via man ? man /path/to/file
<18> Greetings, can anyone tell me if there is something included in Ubuntu that is not included in Edubuntu?
<17> The man file is in gz, though. I tried grepping it directly and got nothing.
<9> better call it a night. g'nite all
<5> man can do files as well as the normal man pages
<18> g'nite cdubya
<17> Yeah, I get that.
<13> grte: man -P cat whatever | grep string
<17> What I'm wondering, though, is how I can grep a man page to show the entries I'm looking for.
<13> ?
<4> i can't play mp3's...
<13> '-P cat' is use cat as the pager
<5> gzip -v blah | grep string maybe what you are askinf
<19> or use zcat
<13> yes zcat
<17> Okay, I'll give that a try.
<4> what program should i use to play mp3's?
<8> ubotu, tell silvalynin about mp3
<13> !mp3
<14> hmm... mp3 is a non-free format. To enable mp3 capability, read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
<4> by default it's trying to use Totem movie player
<4> oo
<8> silvalynin, see the pm the bot just sent you
<4> thanks
<20> is there a way to convert a Debian system to ubuntu? I tried changing the sources list to Breezy and did an apt-get dist-upgrade. Now some things (like sudo for example) are broken.
<21> What is the best way to enable beagle when I log in?
<19> whyami: I've got to think that probably won't work well
<20> tokennrg: well...it didn't! :-)
<18> whyami, back up files you need and wipe your system
<20> Meshezabeel: then run the install CD?
<5> whyami sudo is over rated anyway. remove -purge it and reinstalle it....
<18> whyami yes
<2> im still having problems i did exactly what the wiki said and firefox stilll says i dont have java runtime enviorment?
<22> whyvas; wilu help me
<8> mugzie, did you follow the "Selecting the default Java version" section of the wiki page?
<18> install cd will let you wipe your existing debian partition anyhow
<22> whyvas; if u dont hav any probelm???
<2> grr no i didnt let me do that
<22> whyvas; can i burn CD in ubuntu???
<8> ferronica, of course. Stick a blank CD in, and Ubuntu should popup a window asking you what you want to do with it
<5> Meshezabeel unless you are a pretty good hand at linux the install cd wont let you install on a partition with files still on it....
<22> whyvas; So there is no need to launch application first???
<8> ferronica, just stick a blank CD in and watch what happens...
<5> Madpilot yes. now what is the ubuntu way to stop it from doing that ?
<18> intelikey, there's an option on the CD to "erase existing partition", haven't ever needed it though so I'm not sure
<22> Madpilot: If i wanna to launch application???
<8> ferronica & intelikey: just close the popup window and open whatever other burning app you want to use
<22> Madpilot: wanna to see options, bcoz in synaptic it shows me installed
<7> how do i make evolution stay in tray when i hit the X ?
<2> ok now in terminal i get there are 3 alternatives which provide java which one do ipick
<22> Madpilot: ok let me insert one blank CD ok
<8> mugzie, the one that says "sun" in the name somewhere
<18> I am currently using Edubuntu in the lab at the school, but am wondering does Ubuntu also come with KTouch? I'm trying to find app lists on the different distributsions, but they all seem very vague. If someone can direct me to a page that lists all apps that would also be helpful.
<5> Madpilot not my question. i mean make it stop "auto-detecting" things like the insertion of a cd
