<0> how do i traceroute in ubuntu
<1> is anyone having problems with beagle in dapper?
<2> Nope.
<3> how do you get a trashcan on the desktop?
<0> nevermind
<4> _jpierre, I'm not much for networking, just a few specific issues
<5> AJ004: same as you do any another distro use traceroute IP (might need to install it first.. sudo apt-get install traceroute)
<6> uXp i have no idea. i'm always working at it from the oppisite end. getting rid of the trash altogather.... so rm=rm not rm=mv
<1> uXp, you have to edit gconf
<3> code
<4> _jpierre, but BioVorE 's advice about traceroute is probably useful
<7> ubotu tell uXp about desktoptrash
<1> uXp: open gconf-editor
<8> so is there anyway to turm rpm to deb
<5> specialbuddy: alien dose that
<7> AJ004: note that the tracepath command is similar and is installed by default



<6> can you not drag the trash can to the desktop or is that only a k thing ?
<4> uXp, alt-f2 gconf-editor, navigate to /apps/nautilus/desktop. you can turn on the desktop trash there.
<9> qwe, any graphical utility for resizing/shrinking partition ?
<1> uXp: you should have gotten a message from ubotu
<10> gparted I think, planetcall
<11> How do i run traceroute
<8> yeah I'm looking at that now
<8> thanks
<12> does anyone know whether running grub-install hd0 twice is bad?
<3> thnx nickrud
<9> KanRiNiN, ty
<13> di, no it's not
<6> di no it should'nt be
<14> can i use a logitech quickcams microphone in linux?
<7> cyphase: an itch to scratch :)
<14> it shows up in sound mixer under camera
<12> thanks!
<1> bimberi: not so much an itch..
<1> :P
<7> :)
<15> planetcall: gparted, qtparted
<15> I myself prefer gparted
<16> Epiphany will not open for me anymore. I click on it, and it looks like it IS going to load, but then it goes away and never does
<4> cyphase, that reminded me: gtweakui, it has that :)
<17> I am running vsftpd and i made a ln -s /var/storage/EBooks inside my /var/ftp/ when i open the ftp i cant open the directory. Anyone know where I am going wrong?
<6> di i sent you to the wiki to see what people have to recover from after installing grub and windows in both orders. you may not have any other os.... if not it can't hurt a thing.
<18> Can someone send me a bot for ndiswrappers?
<1> personally, i don't want any of those icons on the desktop
<10> planetcall: gnome or kde? qtparted = kde, gparted = gnome
<15> _smd_: try running it from a terminal and see if it spits out any errors
<4> !ndiswrapper
<12> thanks!
<19> it has been said that ndiswrapper is a way to support Windows wireless drivers, but it is buggy compared to native support. More info at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper
<9> qwe, KanRiNiN I am going for gparted :)
<18> thank you
<4> distanceisdeath, yw. You can open a dialog with ubotu (find his name in the userlist, right click and select open dialog) You can query him there
<15> planetcall: I *think* it's even included on the dapper CD. if not you can get the 30mb gparted livecd
<18> oh okay nickrud
<20> has anyone successfully gotten their 5+ button mouse to work in ubuntu?
<4> distanceisdeath, I do that a lot, before recommending links :)
<18> nickrud, all right cool
<6> distanceisdeath or /msg ubotu help
<21> I'm curious...is there any need to defragment your drive for linux?
<21> or is the file system arranged in a way you dont have to?
<15> planetcall: you can't use it from a mounted partition
<15> mcpowley: what FS? I believe reiserfs is auto-defragmented
<4> mcpowley, no. Or, there is no mechanism, and I've never seen any of my partitions over 5%
<9> i cant operate on /
<9> :(
<22> what's a good dvd burning package? the one in nautilus keeps aborting and ruining my dvd-r's
<6> mcpowley interesting question. i've never defraged anything sense 1994 so i can't say.
<9> Yeah i think i need to reboot from live cd
<15> planetcall: see above. you can't use it from a mounted partition
<23> interferon, try k3b
<15> interferon: I like k3b personally
<16> Epiphany will not open for me anymore. I click on it, and it looks like it IS going to load, but then it goes away and never does. It did open before i installed beep and xine.... qwe: how do you run it from terminal? I do not go in terminal much except for how I know how to use terminal.
<20> is it possible to get an intellimouse to work exactly the same way as it does in Windows?
<24> gnomebaker seems good
<9> but is it installed by default on the CD ?
<24> no :/



<4> intelikey, seems llike it's one of those take it on faith things, I've never seen a convincing description of how fragmentation is handled on ext2. Or, never found one, anyway
<7> ubotu tell jinho about mousebuttons
<24> you can get it in repos
<15> planetcall: go to the gparted site and download their livecd
<6> nickrud 5% is kinda high for what i'm used to... .2 / 3%
<25> hey guys
<9> :(
<25> you know what sux
<9> ok i will do it later
<6> err .3
<9> why is amarok not playing my mp3 ?
<26> interferon: ***uming you're using gnome, gnomeburner is pretty good. No Movie publishing capabilities, but an excellent file-backup program
<4> intelikey, small root partition it was, and heavily worked
<9> I just installed it
<21> qwe:ext3 i believe
<6> yeah
<25> Installing dapper f'ed up my windows partition
<25> ouch
<6> lots of rm's and cp's i'd think
<27> Hey guys. I still can't get Flash to work with my copy of Firefox. I've followed the tutorial, but it's still saying it's not installed :
<21> qwe:but i also have a shared fat32 partition for both windows and linux
<28> Anyone use a Ubuntu compatible USB micraphone/headset that they could reccomend?
<29> cool.. google earth for linux is out..

<6> Kman42 ^
<25> i know
<6> or is it !grub
<25> i followed humans instructions here
<6> anyway.
<25> and i messed up my partition
<4> Kman42, I'm sending you a text fragment in a pm, could you do gedit /boot/grub/menu.list , and see if that fragment is in that file?
<26> alth: I installed my copy through the firefox pop-up thing when I went to a site that required it, and mine works fine. Have you tried that?
<25> Sorry, cant help you there nick
<9> Amarok is not playing mp3 with Xine. what else do i need ?
<21> is there any downside to using a program for kde in gnome?
<4> Kman42, no, it's about your XP
<30> how do i remove firefox and set opera as my default browser?
<10> !mousebuttons
<19> from memory, mousebuttons is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ManyButtonsMouseHowto
<6> mcpowley yeah it makes ubuntu zeolots un-happy :)
<27> VitaminG: Yes, it tells me it couldn't install any plugins.
<31> Hi, why does grub takes so long to start Linux ?
<25> what do ya mean
<26> alth: strange, mine installed and works fine.
<31> 6.06 Beta was faster than 6.06 LTS to load the kernel
<25> sorry guys
<25> g2g
<25> peace nick
<6> Larry1981 can you be more vague please ?
<4> Kman42, see you
<31> intelikey: I could :p
<32> is there a way to increase the resolution on the tty's?
<4> Larry1981, good question, it hangs here about 5 secs
<26> general question: I've heard both sides of the argument whether to start from scratch with dapper, or to just use the upgrade feature. Which do you recommend? I have 5.10 installed.
<27> VitaminG: Yeah, and it's fine on my laptop, just really annoying me on my desktop.
<4> but, whats a few seconds between friends :)
<33> can someone please help me use wine?
<32> VitaminG: i upgraded.. there was some weirdness but I managed to tweak my way out of it
<31> nickrud: here also... takes about 5 seconds, byt was much faster before
<4> VitaminG, do a fresh install
<28> Anyone have an idea of why when im voicing with skype, i cant play music and vise vera? All sound seems to have trouble..
<6> if i could install grub on this thing i might look into that.....
<33> it's installed on my system but I have no clue how to use it to install an exe file
<4> VitaminG, this is not debian, it doesn't have the manpower, or the lifecycle to iron out all the upgrade issues.
<10> Hey, just read the "!mousebuttons" thing, and my xorg doesn't have a button option, can I just add it in?
<4> KanRiNiN, yes
<34> kubuntu is so easy i dont know why the even have a channel for it
<33> anyone?
<7> maxy_noob: wine foo.exe (in a terminal)
<4> ablyss, rflmao
