Comments:
<0> Spudly: startx is provided by xbase-clients here
<1> kbrooks, well nevermind. I'll ask the ubuntu team to allow libmysql14 with ubuntu-desktop meta-package because thisis a lot of trouble when you developt with libmysql14
<2> Someone who'll answer a newbie-question?
<3> Any one can help me to mount and be able to write on a new reiserfs partition?
<4> francois222, you cant
<1> why not
<4> francois222, well, you can
<4> francois222, but
<4> francois222, i suspect they will say no
<5> naetrick, did come across much on forums.gentoo.org you'll need the error message on the screen to go hunting for this...since its a new kernel you are testing in essense, it could be the kernel config...anyway im outta here...good luck!
<0> ulrik: just ask
<4> francois222, no one wants mysql unless they need it
<5> swap/did come/didn't come
<6> when you do a standard install what parts of the xorg stuff gets installed?
<7> kbrooks, no need for mysql-server-41. Im just saying you might want libmysql41 instead of the old libmysql12
<8> vladuz976: good question!
<9> thingy: Thanks, I think that might be it, too
<5> vladuz976, you want "apt-get x-window-system-core" stuff unless you are looking to save on disk space and get by on the minimal things needed to run X
<9> Anyone wanna take a look at my .config for problems? :0 http://rafb.net/paste/results/ru6zVZ61.html
<4> LinuxElite, still not convinced
<6> thingy: ok, thanks
<4> LinuxElite, #ubuntu-dev
<7> kbrooks, thanks
<2> amphi: Well, I'm just a little confused about the Linux way of installing/uninstalling software
<5> vladuz976, by the way, x-window-system-core for reason doesnt pull xterm in with it...so do a apt-get xterm as well.
<4> LinuxElite, no,
<4> oh ****
<0> ulrik: that's distro-specific
<6> thingy: oh ok, good to know
<10> I was wondering if there is a place where i can find the minimum system requirements for ubuntu
<0> ulrik: on ubuntu you use synaptic or aptititude or apt-get
<2> amphi, When you use a package, it's pretty easy to uninstall your software again.. But what about when you do a configure, make, make install? It seems rather messy if you can't remove the software from the system again, taking into account that the installer spreads all the files out
<4> ulrik,
<6> why does breezy take so long to load. i was running archlinux before and it booted super quickly
<4> !checkinstall
<11> somebody said checkinstall was http://wiki.ubuntu.com/CheckInstall
<4> here you go.
<2> thanks
<0> ulrik: indeed - if you're lucky, make uninstall will work; otherwise you can do make -n install | less to see what it did, and undo it manually
<0> ulrik: there is also some gnu thing (chkinstall ?) that automates this
<2> oh, I see why apt makes administrators so happy then :)
<4> amphi, checkinstall is nt part of the gnu project
<0> kbrooks: I believe there is a gnu thing that does something similar
<2> thanks for enlightening me ;)
<12> does anyone know how to make a startup program start rolled up?
<8> anyone here have an opinion on Gentoo's 'emerge' compared to 'apt-get'?
<0> ulrik: at least, make install should install under /usr/local so it won't clobber distro stuff under /usr
<0> apt-get good, emerge bad ;)
<10> I was wondering if there is a place where i can find the minimum system requirements for ubuntu? or if someone could tell me what they are?
<13> when it says I have to run /usr/sbin/aideinit which has a .sh do I just run it in terminal ?
<8> amphi: lol :P
<0> Spudly: note that I speak from pure prejudice
<2> I see, I guess I have to learn a little more about the directory structure too
<14> Grr firefox crashed again
<15> Spudly: apt-get won't waste the next 6 hours of your life if you try to install mozilla-firefox and it's already installed and the newest version
<16> Evilkiks***: that depends on whether you want to run gnome/kde or a lighter WM
<10> dyrne: whatever is best for people looking to learn linux
<12> does anyone know how to make a startup program start rolled up?
<17> #utah
<17> erm, sorry.
<18> good evening
<10> good *timezone your in*
<6> what's the packge name for nvidia drivers? i only found nvidia-legacy
<18> Evilkiks***: :)
<15> vladuz976: apt-cache search nvidia
<17> Evilkiks***, good Mountain Standard Time? ;-)
<19> vladuz976: nvida-glx
<13> when it says I have to run script /usr/sbin/aideinit which has a .sh do I just dbl click and open in terminal?
<19> and nvidia-glx-settings
<19> but
<19> !nvidia
<11> somebody said nvidia was at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia or http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=57368
<19> :)
<14> ****ing firefox crashed again :@ I hate the ****ing firefox now :) Ie is tha best(Y) :D
<10> janno you speak from your arse
<6> oh by the way, does breezy have a firefox 1.5 version in the repos?
<16> Evilkiks***: what are your system specs?
<2> What about Opera? That's pretty nice too
<20> vladuz976: no
<16> Evilkiks***: ive run debian/ubuntu on a p133 16mb ram ok
<10> dyrne: um 1ghz pentium 3, on board video, 128mb of ram (soare system i found in the garage)
<9> I still get those dang NULL Pointer dereferences when trying to mount the XFS partition
<12> does anyone know how to make a startup program start rolled up? or force it to start on the corner (gaim)?
<10> gaim will do it automaticaly
<16> Evilkiks***: with 128mb ram i would download the xubuntu cd instead of ubuntu. xubuntu comes with a lighter window manager that will take up less ram
<10> look inside of its option set
<12> it goes randomly
<10> dyrne: and ***uming i expand memory?
<21> how much ram is needed for ubuntu then?
<10> tr[i]ad: you should be able to at the very least start it docked to your right hand side of the monitor
<0> ubuntu: depends ; if you only use console, 16MB is ok
<16> Evilkiks***: above 256mb you should be ok for gnome/kde but I would want 512.
<12> Evilkiks***: can u please explain how, or is it automatic?
<21> got 256 in my 256mhz amd. writing file system take ages
<13> usr/sbin/aideinit
<13> how do I run a script?
<16> Evilkiks***: xubuntu (xfce) is very nice though
<10> tr[i]ad: not sure in linux but in windows just push it against the side, suposedly gaim offers the same capabilities for windows and linux
<22> Is it possible to install ubuntu via floppies?
<6> can someone help out? i installed xorg and nvidia, also have my .xinitrc set to start enlightenment, but only get a black screen
<12> k thanks, ill try it
<23> can ubuntu work in a cluster?
<0> rublind: ubuntu has no boot floppies
<24> running on a p3-450 with 512megs of pc100.. runs pretty sluggish.
<22> amphi: is there a way to create one or something?
<25> rublind, I doubt it. Slakckware may still be able too
<26> can i get notepad/word/wordperfect/wordpad for linux?
<0> rublind: did the debian base system -> ubuntu thing not work?
<22> amphi: getting debian is proving to be difficult in itself.
<0> nethblano: openoffice and [g|k]edit perhaps
<13> does sbin mean script bin?
<0> rublind: I thought you had debian stable floppy net install going ok for you
<0> tatters: no
<22> amphi: yeah, but that's sarge, and I wanted etch, and to get etech is a big problem, and it just led me in circles.
<13> whats a file with a sh icon it called?
<22> amphi: what I really want is ubuntu, and I don't know how I'm going to get it.
<0> tatters: the 's' is for system I believe, the directory contains stuff mostly to be used by the administrator
<26> amphi will it be readable by windows OS's?
<13> I have to run that file but not sure
<27> hello
<0> rublind: did you try installing debian base system, change sources.list, and doing apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade ?
<22> No, but it's worth a shot.
<0> nethblano: will what be?
<26> amphi nethblano: openoffice and [g|k]edit perhaps
<13> if I click it ask if I want to open in terminal but then terminal just quickly opens and closes is that correct?
<0> rublind: that's what I'd try
<0> rublind: with sarge
<22> amphi: okay, I'll give that a shot. I'll need the ubuntu sources, I'll ask for them later. :)
<23> is ubuntu worth installing on my system or is it just dissapointing?
<0> nethblano: I know what I bloody said, but what do you mean? they are editors and office 'productivity' (hah!) sw
<26> dissapointing thats for sure
<10> anyone know the install size of a full install?
<0> Hanzo: depends how divergent your expectations are from reality ;)
<28> does anybody know what it can be if my pc sometimes halts before booting the kernel (just showing the text boot)
<16> Hanzo: i used to go back and forth between linux and xp for years there is no xp on my system since switching to ubuntu
<24> Evilkiks*** - around 2 gigs or so, after the updates.
<10> catchphrase: thank you
<26> amphi i sent a text editor file to a windows computer and they couldnt read it
<23> dyrne: thats what its been like for me for years.
<0> nethblano: so get an editor that's not broken, that can understand unix line terminators
<0> nethblano: notepad and wordpad do not fall into the non-broken caegory
<26> so youre saying that the stock editor on ubuntu is broken?
<0> nethblano: no, windows is broken, has been since dos
<26> ubuntu is crap
<23> huh?
<26> no compatibility
<0> nethblano: a decent editor can deal with different line terminators, like vim, which is available on win32 and unices
<26> waste of 4 weeks delivery
<29> what's the best way of installing flash? Do I just run sudo firefox?
<6> can anybody help me fix X? it starts only witha black screen
<27> nethblano: thanks for trying ubuntu out, sorry it didnt fill all of your needs.
