<0> Make sure that your X server is running and that $DISPLAY is set correctly.
<1> anyone?
<2> good evening.
<0> anyone know what i need to do so wine finds my drivers
<3> theholylancer: because you're still just a regular user
<1> i have encountered a problem: ubuntu locks me out of the system folers, i cannot edit anything here, it says permission denied, but i;m sure that the current account is the one that i installed ubuntu with, aka the admin account
<1> do i need to create a new user?
<3> theholylancer: you still need to activate root privileges to make some of the changes
<4> ThinkL00p: what are you currently using?
<5> orbin: running gnome right now
<1> how do i active toot privileges?
<3> theholylancer: and you activate that on a temporary basis with 'sudo'
<4> ThinkL00p: sorry, what *driver*?
<6> warbringer87: try wine
<3> theholylancer: are you using a shell, or a GUI to try and edit these files?
<1> in the gnone terminal
<5> how would I find out what driver im using
<1> ?
<7> hey, i just thhought of something. What IRC client are you guys using?
<8> warbringer, xchat probably
<0> xchat
<3> theholylancer: put the word 'sudo' before the command you were trying to run
<9> warbringer87: irssi
<1> um i'm using the gui
<1> not command line
<2> question: am I wrong in expecting the sbp2 firewire modules to be auto-loaded by the kernel upon connecting an ipod without specifying a mount point in /etc/fstab? (plugging in the ipod does not cause the kernel to autoload sbp2, but modprobing sbp2 loads it and everything else works aftewards)
<10> hey guys I'm having some wicked dual boot problems- i have 2 hard drives and i installed ubuntu on one of them, winxp is on the other.
<4> ThinkL00p: cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | grep Driver | tail -n 1
<1> i'm currently in ubuntu logged in
<11> RightSaidTed, be more specific please
<1> and trying to edit menu.lst
<10> everything was fine, i logged into win xp once
<10> and now i try to go to ubuntu and it dies quickly
<12> warbringer87: irssi, since XChat's no good if you need to restart X and get support at the same time.
<5> orbin: it just says Driver "via"
<11> RightSaidTed, what do you mean by it "dies"
<10> "mount: Mounting /dev/hda1 on /root failed: Invalid argument. mount: mounting /root/dev on /dev/static/dev failed: No such file or directory"
<13> should we install xfree86 for installing current mplayer version in x86 machine
<10> and i get kicked out to this funky shell with only a few commands, and being a newb i'm confused.
<0> Anyone know how to get wine working ?
<14> I'm looking for a file manager for ubuntu that can support "column view" like the finder in Mac OS X. Does anyone know of something like this?
<4> ThinkL00p: well, i'm guessing here, but that's probably the driver you should use
<5> well how would i enable 3d graphics excel?
<15> theholylancer try opening a terminal windo and type in sudo pico /boot/grub/menu.lst
<10> google searches seemed to make it look like it may just be the wrong commands- i only ran xp from a grub command line, not the actual grub menu.
<4> ThinkL00p: is it capable of it?
<11> RightSaidTed, had ubuntu ever booted correctly?
<5> not sure! ?
<5> how would i find out
<16> theholylancer, try opening a terminal and doing $gksudo gedit /boot/menu/grub.lst
<10> so i thought maybe i screwed up something when i said map (hd0) (hd1) and then after map (hd1) (hd0) to boot xp
<10> DBO: yes, quite a few times
<7> what is .rpm ?
<10> i just hadn't done any xp stuff yet
<13> tonyyarusso, the version of mplayer in the ubuntu package is old :(.. i need so new features so i need some help installing it from the source
<17> !rpm
<4> ThinkL00p: well, have you played games before?
<18> rpm is, like, totally, the Redhat Package Management file. Very similar to Debians DEB files, but require alien to install. ask me about !alien
<15> thanks Carthik, I was just trying to find out how to use gksudo
<19> warbringer87: an evil, evil file extension
<4> ThinkL00p: in xp that is
<5> Orbin: basic games yeah
<7> ok, well, how the hell do i install xchat then :\
<5> like Unreal Tournament
<20> Is there anyone here who is good with ssh error messages? I'm getting this one error while trying to logon to another server. I get to login, but get juped at once.
<12> arun: Ah. Well, generally things around here work with Xorg, so I dunno.
<11> RightSaidTed, odd... do you run any programs on windows that might have effected your linux disks?
<19> warbringer87: sudo apt-get install xchat-gnome
<4> ThinkL00p: ah, ut. yeah, it's probably capable then
<10> DBO- no I don't think so
<7> You just confused me :P
<2> IceTox> what's the message?
<10> they are 2 different physical drives.
<12> warbringer87: It should already be installed.
<4> ThinkL00p: i'm not familiar w/ via to be honest. i'd search the forum
<7> oh
<7> ok
<7> ahhh
<7> it is
<20> jeff_, "Inconsistency detected by ld.so: dl-minimal.c: 84: __libc_memalign: ***ertion `page != ((void *) -1)' failed!"
<7> thanks!
<10> is there anything i can do from this goofy busybox built in shell to figure out what drives have what?
<13> tonyyarusso, ok thanks anyway..
<5> whats a ubuntu app for sniffing out wireless networks? then getting the wep keys for them?
<11> RightSaidTed, you need someone more awake than me... sorry I figured this would be a standard run of the mill problem, but you found yourself a genuine issue
<1> carthik: it still says read only
<16> theshibboleth, there is something called GWorkspace I've heard of that does what you want
<21> sweet
<10> DBO, thanks, yeah.
<2> IceTox> that's not an ssh protocol message per se. It is rather an executable error for the ssh command itself. have you updated ssh recently?
<22> I just hit 700kb/s transfer on my wireless connection.
<16> theholylancer, can you do a $groups <your-username> and tell me what gives?
<10> anybody?
<19> ThinkL00p: network-manager can sniff them out...but i don't know about getting wep keys
<22> I've never gone over 200 before.
<22> Sorry, off topic. :P
<23> ok, here's one for somebody. i don't have a working optical drive in my box right now, but i want to play some q2 with some friends, i have an actual pressed CD i purchased sitting in my one sysem, and i'm trying to FTP over, and i'm getting this: http://pastebin.com/656891 i've tried setting every permission i could imagine and still, same error.
<14> carthik: thanks. I'll look into it
<12> DBO: I have 1 (!) idea - if you can still get to a "funky shell thing", maybe you can run grub-install and see if it can fix itself.
<10> tony- where is that located?
<1> carthik
<1> it sayd command not found
<20> no I haven't jeff_, but tried to apt-get install it now, and it's already the newest version.
<1> bash: name : command not found
<13> hi all.. i need to install mplayer from source cos i need some features.. has there anyone who has done this ??
<17> arun: yes, which features?
<12> RightSaidTed: Should just type it like that. sudo (if necessary) grub-install /dev/wherever_the_mbr_is
<16> theholylancer, I asked you type $groups carthik (replace carthik with your username)
<10> tony- it doesn't even know what sudo is
<1> um ok should i type the $ sign?
<1> i been doing that...
<1> something tells me its noob moment...
<21> gah, what was the channel for wine or whatever it was called?
<2> IceTox> how about libc6?
<16> theholylancer, not, it should already be there, right? jus type the rest ina terminal please
<1> ok done
<12> Is there any good comprehensive text-mode user:group management tool? (Preferably one of those things that almost pretends to be graphical, but isn't, like aptitude).
<1> it says
<2> IceTox> (seems like there is some problem between libc and ssh on your system)
<1> root adm dialout cdrom floppy audio dip video plugdev lpadmin scanner admin
<12> Warbringer87: #winehq I think.
<16> theholylancer, it would help if you didn't user "Enter" like a comma here in the channel. Longer sentences are better for others to understand :)
<21> thanks
<9> theholylancer: what are you trying to do?
<1> ok
<13> _jason, i need screenshot filter that i cannot get to work in the ubuntu package
<20> jeff_, that's the newest version too
<24> ok, whats the command for starting ubuntu-desktop after installing it?
<21> linux seems to be a mix of windows and mac os
<16> theholylancer, see the "Admin" part htere, that tells you you are an admin. So you can edit files as the admin user, if you can't no one can!
<1> i'm trying to make windows as my main os in grub so that if i open the ocmputer it will goto windoews xp
<25> !pastebin
<18> hmm... pastebin is http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/, a site for pasting long texts so you don't disrupt the channel - or install webboard in Gnome: http://www.gnomefiles.org/app.php?soft_id=1269
<9> arrick: it's not a program. It's just a dependency on the gnome-desktop, etc.
<12> arrick: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start OR startx
<17> arun: have you compiled anything from source before?
<26> arun: just startx ?
<26> oppss i mean.. arrick: just startx
<12> arrick: (startx will start a gnome-session directly under your user, the other will start the login and display manager)
<24> startx is throwing errors
<1> carthik : oo it worked!
<16> theholylancer, you are logged in as "root" aren't you? man, you don't need to. now that you ARE root, you can edit things just by doing a $gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
<10> ubuntu has raped me!
<24> and the other one wont do anything on here
<16> theholylancer, alright. whatever works :)
<2> IceTox> on a whim: how much space is left on your root filesystem?
<26> arrick: what errors?
<27> does anyone have some suggestion for documentation for using more than 3 buttons on a (logitech) mouse
<10> **** this, mepis here i come
<24> no screens found
<1> carthik: it worked... i just have to not type $ in the commands ya told me
