Comments:

<0> cuebol: eww. heh. I guess you have to put up with the gas.
<1> odla: hda5
<2> cloudeh, sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
<3> crimsun: Thats the problem, I switched to "nv" drivers
<2> cloudeh, go to #flood and i'll paste what you should type
<4> someone to speak with me?
<5> chris12349: that's a long-standing issue (over three years)
<3> crimsun: Interesting thats the first I've seen it (In 3 years ) :)
<1> odla: i'm there
<6> I almost called the ISP but they always ask "Which version of Windows are you using?"
<7> i need some help, i need to change the place apt-get is looking for stuff, now it only looks at my cd-rom, i want a ftp site or somthing like that!
<8> ubuntu with floppies, is it possible?
<4> download the wincommander
<9> crimsun, i dont think theres a way to fix this :(
<10> cuebol: Tell them "The one that works so well it doesn't even seem like it is Windows."
<5> houseoftainted: there is, but you have to explicitly set the values in bios



<5> houseoftainted: is there anywhere in bios to do that?
<6> Well when I had SBC before the moved they were convinced that it was Mandrake. The lady told me "The internet doesn't support Mandrake".
<9> crimsun, ni i didnt see anywhere to do that
<4> cls
<11> how do i know which linux kernel header i need to install
<6> I died a little bit inside when I heard that.
<12> fangorious: one rsa and one dsa keey will do the jo nice! >> the keys is not a good option
<4> there is some system analyst in this channel?
<11> i guess follow uname -r ?
<10> cuebol: Did you educate her?
<13> is it possible to install ubuntu with a 2.4 kernel instead of a 2.6 kernel?
<14> axisys: yes - 'sudo aptitude install linux-headers-$(uname -r)
<15> Could having a 386 and k7 kernel installed (plus modules) cause conflicts with load ndiswrapper?
<16> hey guys, what's responsible for detecting an external storage device?
<14> '
<16> becaue my ipod isnt being detected
<0> cuebol: yeah, that's just sad. SBC is one of the most clueless companies. I'm in SBC territory too.
<9> crimsun, now i know why they call them stinkpads...
<5> kethinov: no
<11> bimberi: i used apt-get not aptitude .. oops
<17> good evening folks
<0> aridese: have you tried gtkpod or amarok?
<5> kethinov: you are free to compile your own 2.4 kernel, though. Realise that it has degraded functionality for the standard GNOME desktop.
<14> axisys: no real problem there - you can use either
<18> how do i get DVD-RAM support in ubuntu?
<9> cuebol, sbc screwed us over..... i mean random disconnections for hours at a time; im with comcast now, sbc never was able to fix the problem on why our internet went out
<14> axisys: aptitude is my prefrence :)
<5> houseoftainted: perhaps you can use setpnp
<0> aridese: I don't think ipods show up as standard M*** Storage devices.
<19> why downgrade to 2.4?
<20> can someone help me with installing a KDM theme correctly?
<14> ^e
<16> carpediem: the problem is with the ipod being detected, i.e, /dev/sda doesn't show up ;(
<20> trying to do this one: http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php?content=26718
<13> crimsun, yeah, thing is though every distro i try that uses kernel 2.6 doesn't work on my machine. only the ones that use 2.4 work correctly. i would prefer to get the 2.6 kernel distros working, but i've never figured out how.
<9> houseoftainted, ill give it a try
<16> carpediem: just a week ago my ipod was automounted with firewire ;:-/
<17> can someone pastebin a working yaboot.conf? i fragged my boot loader and i have to rebuild it on the command line >_<
<11> bimberi: how r they different.. just curious
<9> crimsun, what should i put after setpnop
<9> crimsun, er setpnp
<0> aridese: hmm, then I don't know. I use a Zen Micro, here, so I'm not much help, sorry.
<17> !yaboot
<21> Mosi: No idea, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
<18> how do i get DVD-RAM support in ubuntu?
<16> carpediem: ah i see, how is the zen micro?
<14> axisys: aptitude is smarter about remembering dependencies which can be handy if you uninstall something
<0> aridese: other than the fact that you have to hook it up to XP so you can downgrade it to a prior firmware after you buy it, it's awesome.
<11> bimberi: i will keep that in mind.. thanks.. btw synaptics use which one?
<0> aridese: and with SharpMusique getting me into Itunes, it's perfect under Linux.
<22> !ndiswrapper
<21> ndiswrapper is probably a way to support Windows wireless drivers, but it is buggy compared to native support. More info at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HowToSetUpNdiswrapper
<18> how do i get DVD-RAM support in ubuntu?
<14> axisys: neither, all 3 use apt. However synaptic doesn't remember installed dependencies the way aptitude done, so is similar to apt-get in that way.
<14> s/done/does/
<0> Bardiel: I'm not sure if there is DVD-Ram support in linux. If so, I'd like to know
<11> bimberi: gotcha.. thnx
<14> axisys: np :)
<18> carpediem, if there isn't i was lied to
<19> carp there is
<5> aireson: setpnp 11 irq on



<5> aireson: and, setpnp 11 io on
<0> Bardiel: could be, I've read about Live CDs that could store changes by writing to themselves, so why not DVD-Ram
<19> neat idea carp
<13> when i install ubuntu fresh (either breezy or dapper) my eth0 is borked on the first boot -- however it worked correctly during the install procedure when the cd's kernel was loaded into memory... what should i do?
<19> but the packet writing support would have to be enabled in the kernel
<23> i'm trying to set up a dev environment on ubuntu with gcc, etc. i've installed the gcc package in the synaptic package manager but i'm missing utiltiies like make.. is there an additional package i need to get make?
<19> not sure if it is by default
<24> Hi, I've just installed Ubuntu but I have a few problems. Firstly, I need to access an NTFS disk, can anyone suggest how I can acheive this?
<19> build-essential
<19> neil
<18> kethinov, have you tried enabling eth0 in the preferences once into the system?
<10> !tell rpz about ntfs
<14> neilksf: build-essential
<25> crimsun, tried the first one and it says bad resource argument: 'on'
<13> Bardiel, eth0 is enabled. i have an ip, but i get no DNS
<24> tonyyarusso, excellent, thanks :)
<14> neilksf: (a metapackage that should install what you need)
<10> rpz: Read that, it has all you need to know. It will be read-only though.
<0> neilksf: sudo apt-get build-essential
<24> tonyyarusso, I just need to drag an ISO off that disk
<18> kethinov, can you set it manually?
<23> bimberi: cool, thanks, i'll try that
<0> neilksf: whoops, sudo apt-get install build-essential
<13> Bardiel, i don't know how to do that
<14> neilksf: np :)
<18> make an entry for your dns and set it to the ip address of your modem
<18> that might work
<23> carpediem: i'm installing through the synaptic package manager, but, thanks for the cli way for future reference
<13> Bardiel, what do i do to manually set a dns entry?
<0> neilksf: that works too....cli is easier to type in irc. ;)
<5> aireson: setpnp 11 on
<22> !pciutils
<21> darthbutcher: I give up. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
<18> go into the network config tool in your system --> administration menu
<18> click on the DNS tab
<18> and ADD
<24> Ok im having problems...I need to setup the proxy server (Im behind a uni firewall)
<25> crimsun, write failed; bad file descriptor
<24> Ive set it up in firefox, xchat seems to be working fine, but i need it to work for wget
<13> Bardiel, another question.... why would the CD be able to dhcp an ip and get dns and be able to connect to the net perfectly fine, but not the installed system afterward?
<5> aireson: hmph. Do you not have access to ps2.exe?
<18> kethinov, i have no clue
<23> sorry i mean 3.4.5
<25> crimsun, i can search driver-guide for the file.. but wont it render useless if i dont have a floppy drive
<26> hey all!
<26> how do I search beagle?
<13> Bardiel, okay, well i'm in the process of reinstalling that system now. i'll try your suggestion as soon as it firstboots. you wouldn't happen to know how to do this from the terminal as well, would you? are we talking about the file in /etc/hosts or something else?
<0> rpz: did you do System >> Preferences >> Network Proxy
<5> aireson: you may be able to download it from ibm/lenovo's Web site/s
<26> it seems as though beagle-search is NOT present.
<24> carpediem: yes but it still doesn't work
<26> and I can't find a package with it..
<18> kethinov, no clue, sorry
<10> aireson: Hey, you want to help me encourage Lenovo to start offering the option to buy their PCs without Windows preinstalled?
<0> rpz: sorry...I don't use a proxy...just thought I'd throw out my useless trivial information, in case you hadn't noticed that setting.
<24> carpediem: thanks for the effort :)
<16> my ipod isn't being detected by linux under firewire, what could be going wrong?
<27> just about anything.
<10> rpz: There is a factoid apt_proxy, no idea if it could be mimicked for wget.
<28> How do I clear the bash history?
<29> rpz http://wiki2.archlinux.org/index.php/How_to_make_wget_to_work_with_proxy_and_proxy_authentification
<29> 3rd google result
<23> dracon: usually there is a file in your home directory called .bash_history that you can erase
<16> eobanb, heh, where would i start in fixing it?
<25> tonyyarusso, um i think that would be illogical... yoru forgetting a majority of computer users can barely use windows, linux would make things worse
<30> need help installing apache
<31> You guys want to hear a funny scam? PM me.
<24> wastrel: thanks, sorry for wasting your time
<22> The ndiswrapper chat is DEAD!
<29> heh no no
<13> aridese, open a terminal and type "dmesg" right after you try connecting the ipod and it does nothing. the last couple lines may provide insight.
<22> :-p
<25> tonyyarusso, besides whos lenovo ._.
<27> aridese, is the firewire chip or card being detected? as in, does it work with other firewire devices
