<0> I haven't a clue, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, mardi
<1> I've tried all the documentation I can find
<2> if google comes out with google pack for linux ill be set
<3> Hso: Since my laptop is currently stuck at 600MHz instead of 1600MHz.
<2> and i know they will :)
<4> seanb64_: are you on the computer you're trying to boot with the desktop CD now? or do you have more than one PC?
<5> wow.. painful lol
<2> if its even needed
<6> ToHellWithGA, I gotta adapt that for restricted formats :)
<7> im thinking of getting a new computer. I want it to be really fast. What program should I run
<1> can somebody help me getting my wireless connection up and going please?
<7> no
<3> i: What do you mean?
<5> a benchmark, i?
<4> cge: he wants to know which program is fastest, of course!
<5> to test how fast the new PC will be?



<8> i can't believe anyone would use a nick like "i". he must be highlighted every line
<5> ToHellWithGA, - heh
<5> you've gotta love attention seekers ;P
<9> KickStandimus: are you running nm-applet
<5> cage :P
<10> I have files on my ubuntu desktop that I would like to rad-only on my xp home laptop; what program do I use?
<1> can somebody help me getting my wireless connection up and going please? I've been through the forums and google and can't seem to figure it out. It may be something obvious
<11> ahh! i installed bos but it's not there!
<10> *rad-only sorry
<1> MarcN: i don't know what that is
<8> how do i check my kernel version?
<5> JohnsonE, - there? have you tried killing Gnome?
<1> MarcN: is that the built in network setting this in ubuntu?
<6> jughead, I've always liked e2explore for reading linux partitions under windows
<12> !wireless
<0> wireless is probably https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCards if it does not work out of the box https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper windows drivers
<13> Ok retrying Ubuntu install # 350. Since Breezy was a failure installing I have gone back to Drapper Alternate Install ISO. Minimum requirements is a SWAP volume and a / mount point correct?
<14> I think one of the reasons why the install from liveCD is failing is maybe because the default hda1 is ~1GB, and it is filling up before completing the install. It seems to fill up to 100% exactly, which leads me to believe it's not downloading everything because there isn't enough space
<1> Yeah but it sort of does work ubotu
<12> NoWhereToTurn: yep
<15> JohnsonE, /usr/games/stratagus-bos
<14> does anyone know how to resize partitions when running off the liveCD (without reboot obviously)?
<3> NoWhereToTurn: You don't need the swap if you really don't want it.
<13> Ok thats what I have always been doing during all these installations
<12> NoWhereToTurn: make sure your swap is 2xRAM (unless you have like 2GB ram) and / has at least 4GB
<14> I'm sorta a linux noob, so any help is appreciated
<1> ubotu: what it does is recognize my networks and my neighbors but wont let me connect
<0> KickStandimus: what are you talking about?
<16> how can I tell Ubuntu (dapper drake) live to load vesa and not ati as driver ?
<15> ceruleantiger, gparted
<4> JohnsonE: /usr/games/stratagus-bos
<12> KickStandimus: using networkmanager?
<8> do yall know offhand the bash command to display information about my kernel?
<12> ToHellWithGA: uname -a
<5> KickStandimus, - heh.. you made a funny :P "ubotu" is a robot.. it's just a script :P
<4> ToHellWithGA: uname -r
<17> KickStandimus: ubotu is a bot. I has a very limited repetoire and isn't much for conversation.
<1> MarcN: I thought you were talking to me. about the wireless issue. All I was saying was that I can see my wap but can't connect to internet
<8> thank Amaranth and dooglus
<6> jughead, erm, it's actually named explore2fs
<1> ah
<8> *thanks
<1> thanks
<5> heh
<13> Amaranth thanks
<18> brb
<18> restarting X
<1> Amaranth: No i'm not
<3> NoWhereToTurn: If you have enough RAM that you won't swap out, you can leave out the swap partition. I ran without one for a few weeks with no problems, except hibernate won't work.
<12> KickStandimus: switch to that
<19> If I burn an ISO is it automatically bootable?
<12> KickStandimus: I believe it's included on the CD if your ubuntu box doesn't have network access.
<1> Amaranth: what is that. How do I do that
<13> No I have lots of swap partitions from the other distros on this box
<12> KickStandimus: install the network-manager-gnome package in synaptic
<5> Daskies, if it's an official ubuntu iso, it should be
<4> Daskies: only if it's a bootable ISO
<6> Daskies, if it's a bootable iso image
<3> NoWhereToTurn: Ah. Then it doesn't matter much.



<16> how can I tell Ubuntu (dapper drake) live to load vesa and not ati as driver ?
<1> Amaranth: I can't connect so I can't use synaptic
<12> KickStandimus: You can't hook up to ethernet while you get it working?
<19> Hso, dooglus , nickrud: It's from ubuntu.com so I guess it is :D
<1> not on my linux box, only on my laptop
<15> gemidjy, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
<5> then yeah :P
<6> gemidjy, edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and replace ati with vesa
<12> KickStandimus: Let me guess, stealing wireless from the neighbors? :)
<4> Daskies: you'll maybe need to enable booting from CD in your BIOS too
<12> KickStandimus: Ok, I guess we'll have to do this manually.
<16> nickrud: I am talking about Live CD here
<1> Amaranth: no not stealing
<5> heh, I believe a british guy got fined 500GBP for leeching someone's wifi :P
<20> gemidjy: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
<19> dooglus, Already done :)
<12> KickStandimus: Do you know the name of the wireless network? Does it have a p***word?
<16> god damn it.........!
<6> gemidjy, oh, no clue then.
<12> KickStandimus: Sharing then. :P
<16> _jason: live cd
<1> Amaranth: Yes i know the name no I don't have a p***word
<1> Amaranth: I turned it off for testing purposes
<4> Daskies: you should be "all set" then, as they say in the US of A
<12> KickStandimus: ok, do you know what device is your wireless card (eth1 is usually it)
<19> Thanks, dooglus
<1> Amaranth: It's ath0
<5> o.O?
<12> KickStandimus: Ok, cool.
<12> KickStandimus: open a terminal
<9> KickStandimus: if you install the gnome-network-manager package and start the networkmanager applet, connecting to a network is very simple (***uming your wireless card is supported)
<6> gemidjy, but I would expect that under F1 or F2 or one of those help pages will have a way
<5> why would eth1 be a wireless card? doesn't eth mean ethernet ?_?
<1> Amaranth: open
<20> gemidjy: can't you still use either method and restart X?
<12> KickStandimus: sudo iwconfig ath0 essid <networkid>
<16> _jason: are u stupid or what?
<1> MarkN: That will be a pain w/out a package manager
<16> nickrud: ok thanks, will try
<1> Amaranth: It says the right wap
<6> gemidjy, actually he isn't, please be polite
<5> gemidjy, he's here to learn ~_~
<13> Does the bootable flag have to be turned on the / partition in the partitioner ?
<9> KickStandimus: apt-get? synaptic?
<21> well that was unnecessary
<14> kmilo I think liveCDs run exclusively in swap, is there any way to resize swap partitions on the fly? it doesn't seem like you can from gparted
<12> KickStandimus: Running just 'iwconfig' shows that the card has the right frequency, AP, etc?
<15> NoWhereToTurn, no
<1> MarcN: Yes but I can't connect
<9> KickStandimus: oh, you mean 'no network'
<1> MarcN: Not on my linux box, no , only on my mac
<4> NoWhereToTurn: I have it 'on' for my ubuntu '/' and 'off' for my debian '/', and LILO can boot them both the same - so my guess is that it doesn't matter.
<5> heh, i've been using the breezy livecd for about a month, now :P I can do most of what I want, 'cept for compiling.. that's a major no-no :(
<12> MarcN: I think I've got it. :)
<1> Amaranth: Okay hold on
<21> Hso:: why not install to hdd?
<6> Live cds ****.
<6> by definition :)
<22> end of story.
<1> Amaranth: frequency 2.`42
<22> live cds are, well, live
<1> Amaranth: 2.142
<5> Hexidigital_, it's not my PC.. i'm just borrowing it while my RMA of my motherboard gets sorted out :(
<21> Hso:: do you have any hardware conflicts?
<12> KickStandimus: Ok, as long as it says something it's good.
<23> Hi! Could someone recommend a good FTP server/client for Ubuntu?
<22> they're alive. End of story
<12> KickStandimus: sudo dhclient ath0
<5> Hexidigital_, not that I know of :P
<1> Amaranth: AP is correct as well
<21> Hso:: ah
<18> help!!!!
<4> nickrud: the 6.06 live CD is really pretty good - it runs about as fast as my HDD install, probably due to the fact that it detects and uses my vast swap partition.
<12> KickStandimus: Once you run that it should work.
