Comments:

<0> yeah I thought maybe I was just doing something wrong
<0> I dl'd the source
<1> w32: when you say "roll your own linux" it usually means more than just the kernel
<0> linux-2.6.12...
<1> w32: he's right, you do just need build-essential, a metapackage for all build tools
<2> hello, i screwed up switching from kdm to gdm. i indicated to stop gdm now in synaptic so it killed my xsession
<3> Is grip easy to use?
<2> now when i reboot gdm doesn't start.
<4> grip it and rip it
<5> hi, can someone help me with basic usage of openoffice writer? I have done this file (http://hanz.pbwiki.com/f/11-1%20grammar%20powerpuff.odt) and I'd like to know how to start typing at the bottom half. The upper half has pictures and text bubbles. thank you.
<0> this is the tutorial I'm following http://freeos.com/articles/4258/
<1> redblade: ubuntu comes with Sound Juicer, which works fine.
<2> i first did removal and reinstall, then i tried reconfigure
<6> mcquaid: sudo apt-get install gdm
<2> with reconfigure it asked me which should be the default, gdm being the only choice
<1> wastrel, not quite



<2> i selected that but still no
<3> actually, I need it to rip mp3s and it won't for some reason
<2> wastrel, i have it installed
<1> mcquaid: sudo apt-get install gdm --reinstall
<5> the text cursor is at the very top. I'd like to somehow jump to the bottom half. If you can take a look at my basic OpenOffice writer document at http://hanz.pbwiki.com/f/11-1%20grammar%20powerpuff.odt, I'd appreciate it.
<2> i did reinstall and reconfigure
<6> carpediem: ah i don't use synaptic. :]
<1> mcquaid: and?
<2> reconfigure prompted me which should be the default dm and i choose gdm but it stil ldoesn't come up
<1> mcquaid: what does?
<2> gdm does not
<1> mcquaid: blank screen?
<2> i just get a cli login prompt on reboot
<2> i switch to root and run gdm manually
<1> mcquaid: what happens when you "sudo gdm"
<2> it comes up fine
<1> mcquaid: sec
<2> but it just doesn't happen automatically anymore
<0> ok I did apt-get install build-essential
<2> ok i think i see the problem
<0> I see it installed a couple compilers
<2> when it rebooted kdm was left behind
<2> going to reinstall kdm and remove it
<2> thx
<1> ugh, wish he would've stayed a sec longer.
<1> he just needed to edit /etc/X11/default-display-manager.
<0> Is the tutorial I'm following even right ?
<1> w32: same error?
<5> anybody here who uses OO writer and with 2 minutes to help?
<1> w32: because you should definitely get make with build-essential
<0> no this time it says no target
<3> carpediem, how do I get sound juicer to rip to MP3?
<0> got make
<1> w32: sec, I have your answers... ;)
<1> redblade: my advice, close sound-juicer, insert an audio CD, and you should get a prompt that asks you what you want to do.
<1> w32: did you cd /usr/src/linux
<3> okay
<0> cd /usr/src/
<0> dir
<0> just shows linux-sourcexxx.tar.bz2
<1> w32: you didnt extract your source
<0> i thought so
<0> I tried unzip
<0> but it bitched
<1> w32: right, but I think tar will do bzip.
<0> so bzip linux-sourcexxxx
<0> right
<1> w32: or, just type sudo file-roller linux-sourcexxx.bz2
<0> that'll unpack it?
<6> tar jxvf
<7> tar -xjf linux-source.tzt.bz2
<0> ohhhh
<0> hang on trying
<6> v is funner
<1> there, the cli gods got it.
<7> tar -xjf linux-source.tar.bz2 sorry, excuse the typo
<1> James Martin...not from the midwest are you?
<8> sry to be offtopic, but does anyone know a good channel to get help with java?
<8> no
<8> but that is my name
<9> ##java



<8> from CT
<10> #java?
<1> k, sorry....Dan Martin....and I have relatives named James Martin.
<8> on this server?
<8> lol
<11> Does anyone know what package contains C++ manpages (i.e. cout, cstring, etc)?
<8> actually James MArtinez
<1> jjmartin: I'm a Java developer, you can /msg me
<3> carpediem, there was no promt
<3> prompt
<0> k its extracting file-roller
<1> redblade: hmm, that's not so good. Did an icon show up on your desktop for the CD?
<0> I was hoping to do it with out depending on x at all but oh well
<3> yes
<7> redblade: I know grip can rip to mp3, I use it at least once a week.
<5> open-office problem, plz help.
<3> I can play the CD just not rip into the fromat that i want
<3> The other thing is that grip doesn't even "see" the CD
<3> It says I need to insert a Cd
<6> w32: tar jxvf <filename> works - no x needed
<7> redblade: odd, grip sees my CD's
<9> grip is great
<6> for future reference
<3> I think it might be looking in the wrong disk drive
<3> I'm sure it is I just an't seem to get it working
<7> wastrel: you need the "x" as "x" means "extract"
<1> redblade: yeah, you have some bigger problem...
<6> hanz: sorry i use abiword
<12> is synaptic not working today? maybe just the servers in Canada or something?
<0> thanks I'll remember that wastrel-
<3> such as?
<5> wastrel: ok. but can you take a look at my simple text document?
<10> eno, I was having problems with canadian servers a couple days ago
<7> redblade: I would be in agreement with carpediem, you may have a lrger problem there
<6> hanz in abiword?
<5> wastrel: it's in oo format
<3> but what?
<1> redblade: I would start by going to System > Administration >Disks, and see what it thinks of your CD drive.
<1> redblade: particularly, what does it have checked under Supported Features.
<8> are you getting my messages carpediem?
<8> do I need to register?
<1> jjmartin: yeah, unfortunately...unless you have an IM
<13> does anyone knows how to install 'movie-packs' for Armagetron advanced ?
<1> jjmartin: freenode won't relay private message without registering and identifying.
<3> It seems fine...
<7> jjmartin: you need to be identified to nickserv for an id'd person to see your PM's. You should register.
<8> yeah my aim name is theseer540
<1> jjmartin: k, sec
<3> It's an Audio Cd and it has tells me how many songs are on it.
<0> root@dbase:/usr/src# make: *** No rule to make target `menuconfig'. Stop.
<0> > root@dbase:/usr/src# make menuconfig
<0> > make: *** No rule to make target `menuconfig'. Stop.
<0> >
<0> wtf
<1> w32: you need to be IN the directory
<14> for synaptic package manger is there an option for 'smart' update?
<0> k
<2> i was wrong i didn't fix it, still won't start gdm on bootup
<2> it runs fine manually
<6> hanz: yeah abiword won't open it
<3> that's weird, Grip found the CD!
<7> Madraykin: yes, Settings -> Preferences
<7> redblade: :)
<14> I'm running on gnome right now ... where can I go to customize the theme?
<7> Madraykin: gnome-theme-manager
<3> but something is wrong with the encoder : (
<14> ah
<2> right now i just used startx and marked gdm for complete removal and then reinstalled but still no
<14> ardchoille: how do I access it
<7> Madraykin: System -> Preferences -> Theme
<7> Madraykin: or type gnome-theme-manager in a term
<0> root@dbase:/usr/src/linux-source-2.6.12# make menuconfig
