Comments:

<0> it's stupid that root can't force kill a process
<1> whyvas: what does 'top' and 'ps' say about them (in a pastebin) ?
<0> this is like win 3.11
<2> whyvas, just restart X, ctrl+alt+backspc
<1> like I said earlier, they're probably already dead
<3> how can I make gdm my default login manager?
<4> orbin: sound issue
<5> whyvas, are you sure its not a zombie
<3> instead of this brown ubuntu thingy
<0> no zombies....
<6> DBO, whatup?
<5> zombies arent really processes, and thus cant be killed
<7> caminomaster: tell crimsun
<5> hey arrick
<8> ?
<3> zombies in here too?



<9> did you catch that tony?
<10> whyvas yes. but there are init processes that can't be killed. and zombie processes that can't be killed because they are dead already.
<3> zombies are everywhere today
<0> but xmms doesn't fire up anymore....
<11> yipe: You can sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm and it will ask you.
<3> okay:)
<0> and top says there are no zombie processes
<12> yipe, the brown ubuntu thingy is the gdm theme you need to get more themes then run gdmsetup
<13> !gpgerr
<14> rumour has it, gpgerr is a GPG-related error that sometimes occur when accessing the Ubuntu archives; it can usually be solved by typing "sudo rm /var/lib/apt/lists/*Release*" (without the quotes!) in a terminal
<15> dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
<15> is the command, right?
<11> jeeaar: Oh, now I did.
<8> caminomaster: do you have a sound problem?
<16> how do i tweak my settings in X so that i have more resolution options?
<3> so you're saying I AM using gdm?
<7> blindx: sudo in front
<15> !tell wolfsong13 about fixres
<11> jeeaar: Okay, I'm not sure about that.
<4> crimsun: yes
<10> blindx yes. maybe sudo it
<15> I've already su'd in :D
<11> yipe: Sounds like it, from your second comment.
<8> caminomaster: please elaborate
<9> is LVM somethign i can avoid..?
<16> thanks blindx
<9> or is it hardware related?
<12> wolfsong13, you need to add more resolution options to xorg.conf can be don with dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
<15> no problem wolfsong13. doing the same thing myself :P
<11> jeeaar: I think you could do without it, and it might simplify matters.
<9> i dont even know what it is, reccomend on, m friend
<15> orbin: pick the middle option where?
<17> my virtual consoles give me a blank screen. can anyone help me?
<11> jeeaar: I don't really understand or use it either, so...
<4> Crimsun: I've installed timidity, but cannot make run other programs (Rosegarden, Kguitar, etc)
<11> jeeaar: You can probably just start deleting partition stuff until you're just left with normal free space to work with.
<9> kk, ill go fiddle =P
<3> well, what's the default gnome gdm theme
<3> ?
<4> Crimsun: I want to run mainly Rosegarden & Kguitar
<11> yipe: "Human"
<2> caminomaster, whats kguitar?
<3> no no, not the default ubuntu theme
<2> yipe, the gdm theme is human too, lol
<3> if I were running redhat and I removed KDE and installed gnome... oh
<18> Kubuntu is blue and pretty
<3> I liked the look of the kubuntu defaults better too, but I don't like KDE
<3> but I HATE the color brown, especially when mixed with orange
<2> yipe, oh! you mean GDM GDM theme, lol. i beleive its called Happy or something.
<8> caminomaster: how are you invoking timidity?
<3> YAY! thanks!:)
<18> have u seen the new screensaver dialog for Gnome... wow that redefines the word crap. :P
<4> fiendskull9: Is a program where U can "type a song" on a graphic like your guitar
<19> what does it mean when a package is kept-back and what should i do
<17> yipe, you can change it.
<3> I know, and I did
<3> I just wanted my login to match
<20> whats the difference between gtk theme and metacity theme
<3> << superficial
<3> :-P
<11> Xaero_Vincent: So tell the people tweaking that stuff, maybe they'll change it.



<21> ok, anyone nkow if its possible to install nvidia vid card into ubuntu through vmware
<22> !status
<18> no u get xscreensaver and then watch your hacks crash after awhile.
<20> !metacity
<14> cedric77: parse error: Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
<0> 6320 whyvas 16 0 49324 7364 5412 D 0.0 1.5 0:00.20 xmms
<4> Crimsun: I used the method of http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd
<0> line from top
<23> is it save to add dapper rep to sources to get compiz packages and quote it afterwhile?
<0> someone figure this **** out
<9> ok tony: I have deleted so that everythign is back to free space, but i still have these 2 LVM things showing up
<24> Question: How do I move the trash onto the desktop
<9> i cant seem to get rid of em
<25> hello someone who can help me with a .po file ?
<11> 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).
<26> i can't use cron
<25> some software localisators here?
<26> i put in crontab -e
<3> okay, now to go try it!:)
<11> jeeaar: Anything obvious for getting rid of them? Surely it's possible...
<26> */1 * * * * root gaim
<9> ill keep looking, nothign standing out :S
<27> Okay, everytime I do sudo apt-get install build-essential gcc gcc-3.4 It says it has no installation candidate and that it's not available but is referred.
<4> I think was sucessful cause I can hear a sound when open or close Rosegarden, but cannot play songs yet
<26> but did'nt apear nothinig
<8> caminomaster: err? I was asking about how you invoke timidity...
<26> whi
<22> might there have been further 5.10 repositories added lately? how might I find out?
<8> caminomaster: not sure what the w3 has to do with that
<0> theinternet, try sudo apt-get install build-essential
<28> PepeGrilo: you don't need to put the user when it's your own crontab
<26> ok
<26> jeje
<26> i will probe
<7> cedric77: good question. the important thing is gnome can use both themes
<19> what does it mean when a package is kept-back and what should i do
<4> Crimsun: What is exactly "invoke?", cause I'm really new in Ubuntu and I made vaious things arond timy
<29> hi! is there any way to run flash under ubuntu for amd64 without starting a 32 bit chroot?
<26> thanks a lot, and sorry because my horrible English !!!!
<8> caminomaster: invoke means to start
<15> Well, now I'm back to 1024x768
<15> Which is way too big
<7> blindx: pastebin the new conf file
<15> it's the same as the old, i already checked that
<7> blindx: i meant the middle option in the monitor config step
<7> i think it goes simple -medium - advnaced
<9> tony: It seems to be regonizing these LVM VG things as devices, not partitions, a restart couldnt hurt, right?
<3> okay, here's a weird question for you experts out there
<7> you should choose medium which prompts you to choose the highest res. and rate your monitor is capable of
<11> jeeaar: Shouldn't, since there isn't even anything on this machine to corrupt.
<3> why is it that sometimes when I hit ctrl alt backspace, it goes to the tty then straight to the login screen
<3> and otehr times just to the tty
<3> ?
<11> jeeaar: (By the way, it helps if you hit tab to complete my whole nick, b/c then my box beeps at me.)
<28> yipe: if gdm is stopped I believe X won't start on it's own
<26> _jason, my cron dindn't work
<28> PepeGrilo: what does it look like now?
<8> yipe: because ctrl+alt+backspace is known as "zap", meaning that it kills the X server. That key sequence is not responsible for restarting the X server; the script that invoked your display manager is.
<26> _jason, i put */1 * * * * gaim
<3> okay.... so how do I kill x in a way that will react consistenly?
<21> how do i run a file
<26> and it dind't woork
<2> yipe, what do you mean?
<8> yipe: you stop the display manager, e.g., sudo invoke-rc.d gdm stop
<30> Any Ideas, on this? My lappie is claiming 64bit hardware not found but BUT lspci says "Host bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] K8 [Athlon64/Opteron]"
<7> yipe: heh, i was wondering about that too
<3> like, either always take me back to the login manager, or always take me back to the tty
<10> yipe sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
<8> yipe: or in your case, sudo invoke-rc.d gdm restart
<15> Meh, gotta go help steal a big screen tv
<15> be back later
<26> i had at least a mounth probing a lot of configurations, but i cant make work the cron
<3> so, crimsun, the command ending in stop will take me to tty, and restart will take m back to the login?
<10> yipe to restart it use sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
