<0> rendo, I didn't tell it to use swap.
<1> !mount
<2> it has been said that mount is the command to add partitions to your filesystem - for full instructions see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/InstallingANewHardDrive For mounting windows partitions, see !windowsdrives or http://tinyurl.com/bly9f
<0> Dr_Willis, even though it's an 'extra' drive?
<3> PyroticShadow I have really limited space and I need it right now so I want to go back to Windows XP since it has a program I use all the time (zMUD) that has no linux equivelant, can't be ran with wine, and my computer is too slow for vmware... and I mentioned this twice now... my computer simply can't boot from cd. It's too old and the bios is borked and there's no update for the bios
<4> fairy, its reserved on all drives.
<0> DarkMageZ, try tintin :)
<4> fairy, if thats what is taking up the space..
<0> Dr_Willis, that could be it then, thanks :)
<0> As long as it's normal. I don't mind.
<0> Just didn't understand the 'why'
<0> dur...
<0> not darkmagez
<5> KickStand, I've helped three people with lcds, twice with success, once without. The one without had edidfail in the ddcprobe, which you have also.
<0> DavidJaq, tintin is roughly equivalent to zmud.
<6> DavidJaq, if you have a spare computer...you could use the free VMware Server and VMware Player



<7> fairy, was wondering why u said that to me :P
<8> DavidJaq, Hmm... Do ye' have another CD-ROM?...or another computer Baha.
<9> nickrud: well **** that ****s
<10> Hey I was wondering where if anywhere on this channel you would go to find Computer Science career info.
<11> I'm unable to find the fstab command to mount an "ext3" partition at the beginning of boot, making it writable and readable users other than root. Can anyone help me out?
<12> DavidJaq MudMagic CLient works well.
<0> DavidJaq, I do think there's a decent gnome mud client as well. I just can't think of what it was.
<12> davidjaq: Has an ubuntu installer too.
<3> rendo, it doesn't have the mapper I want
<13> good morning, can anyone here help me very fast to install ne latest opera?
<12> DavidJaq: Meh.
<4> FriendlySoviet, make a dir on the partition owned by the users.. so they can write to it. is what i did.
<0> DavidJaq, Graph paper works :) (sorry, I know it's not helpful, I just despised Zmud's mapper, never worked for me ;) )
<11> Thanks Dr.Willlis
<5> KickStand, according to your Xorg.0.log, the max res that X sees is NVIDIA(0): "1024x768" , but this is a 20 inch monitor, right?
<4> FriendlySoviet, safer that way as well.
<12> DavidJaq: Or you can install wine and try and emulate some windows clients.
<0> DarkMageZ, nick completion went wonky on me :) and I wasn't paying attention, sorry. :)
<9> nickrud: yes 20.1 inch widesceen
<8> So nobody can help me install macromedia mx, with wine?
<12> DavidJaq: Mushclient works under wine.
<3> I love zmud's mapper. Works great for me. I can walk from one end of Discworld MUD to the other end, more than 50,000 rooms I walk through, automatically just by telling the map my starting location and ending location
<14> how come /proc/cpuinfo is showing a totally diferent speed than what my processor should be
<15> phoghawk: OK - I got my arms back... I can help you now. Still there?
<5> KickStand, if edid did not fail, I'd have a possible solution, but without that, I'm not sure.
<4> kvasov, and your processor is a ??.....
<16> dooglus, yessir
<14> amd 64 3500+
<3> in any case, I don't want to stay with ubuntu right now. I just want it uninstalled and grub to be gone. I have no spare computers to use, my computer is unable to boot directly from CD because my bios is borked and there's no upgrades... all I have as an option is a floppy disk
<15> phoghawk: remind me of the ext3 line from fstab
<9> nickrud: crap...what the hell is edid anyway
<4> kvasov, and what # is it showing? and what are you expecting?
<14> it showed that i's 1000 Ghz and 3023 bogomips
<17> phlexonance: wget "http://www.opera.com/download/get.pl?id=28025,&location=131&nothanks=yes&sub=marine"; http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/x/xorg/xlibs_6.8.2-77.1_all.deb && sudo dpkg -i xlibs_6.8.2-77.1_all.deb opera_9.0-20060518.5-shared-qt_en_i386.deb
<15> phoghawk: the one that's not working
<14> and it should be 2010 Mhz
<17> mmkay.
<14> i mean 1000 Mhz before
<4> kvasov, it could be throttling down
<5> KickStand, it's the report of the monitor of what it does
<14> why is it doing that
<0> DavidJaq, with windows XP you can reformat and reinstall. then boot to repair mode off your winxp cd and do fixmbr
<0> that should remove grub and ubuntu.
<4> kvasov, its designed that way. :P slows down when not needed.
<18> fairy, he can't boot from cd
<16> dooglus, they're fat32 filesystems, I don't think I have any ext3s that aren't working
<0> oooh
<0> I missed that part.
<15> phoghawk: oh, I see. both of them?
<5> KickStand, more correctly, the response from the monitor when queried about it's capabilites
<1> !harddrive
<16> dooglus, yep
<2> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/InstallingANewHardDrive
<3> if I could put something on the floppy that would let me boot the cd, that'd work
<19> Hi all. Is it possible to have an audio conversation with someone on windows MSN? Which program would I need?
<16> dooglus, I can pastebin my fstab
<12> petrik Gaim?
<14> what the heck. do amd64 throttle themselves?
<0> DavidJaq, 'google boot floppy'
<12> Does Gaim support audio?
<15> phoghawk: in that case, use "umask=0,user,auto" in the fstab for the options



<0> If I remember right, you should even be able to find all flavors of windows boot floppies.
<9> nickrud: So does that mean that there is nothing I can do short of some kind of a patch or something?
<16> dooglus, okay
<14> i do watch cat /proc/cpuinfo
<20> Hello KickStand!
<14> it's at 1 GHz
<20> Hello kvasov!
<20> Hello rendo!
<11> Dr_Willis : Thank you very much. Works like a charm :)
<12> petrik I think there's a program called aMSN.
<20> Hello phoghawk!
<14> start moving windows around and it becomes 2.2 Ghz
<12> Uh Hello.
<16> Hi bkvjegy, lol
<20> lol?
<5> KickStand, no, there's a thing called modelines you can add to the xorg.conf for controlling idiotic monitors. I'll look around for a bit.
<20> phoghawk, :-(
<19> rendo, Both Gaim and aMSN don't seem to do audio
<12> petrik Skype!
<20> Hello bkvjegy!
<20> Hello petrik!
<3> fairy, I've already done that. The floppy options for windows XP I find are one that byp***es the mbr entirely to boot windows xp and one that requires six floppies, but I only have three
<12> petrik And use whatever messenging client for the IM part :P
<20> Hello Jaak_!
<21> anyone particularly familiar with that nightmare we call fglrx?
<16> bkvjegy, do I know you?
<12> Speaking of Dell.
<0> DavidJaq, I'd suggest a run to wal-mart ;) buy some new floppies ;)
<22> is there a ubuntu guide on installing/enabling fglrx?? (my card is Radeon 9800 Pro)
<19> rendo, Skype doesn't work
<12> I had an appointment today with social services and I had to outline my plan after college.
<12> They wanted all this crappy details about it.
<21> i tried following this guide, still mesa =/ https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI#head-26e8b0d4be861a6b7c545dc21c45232f909d8ca2
<16> dooglus, that appears to have worked. Thank you soooo much. You are a wonderful person.
<12> Who are your competitors going to be? Blah blah blah.
<23> how do i create an partition from "free space not available" that can be used by ubuntu and windows
<24> hello, Everytime I go to Applications -> Add/Remove The program starts, begins to look for installed applications, but never shows up??? I'm not really sure why..... Any help
<21> !ati
<2> I guess ati is http://doc.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/hardware.html#installatidriver or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI ... the radeon 9200 and below are supported by the open-source drivers
<25> Does anyone know why LimeWire dont Run..even after install Official JAva from Sun?
<26> If I wanted to add the regular Ubuntu Desktop to the Server edition, what all would I need to do?
<3> "After college I intend to become ritch and I'm going to buy you as my slave. Lick my boots now as practice and I shall pay you well later."
<15> phoghawk: you're welcome. it's the "umask=0" that did it. the "auto" means "mount at boot" and the "user" means "let users mount it without sudo'ing"
<12> rigonatti Did you install it through synaptic or apt?
<20> Hello ubotu!ubotu
<27> how do I configure dapper drake to use my wide aspect LCD monitor?
<24> rigonatti: try running limewire from the command line and see what it says
<16> dooglus, what does the umask mean?
<5> KickStand, here's a sample xorg.conf, http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg/2006-January/012156.html . let me know when you're looking
<20> Hogy vagy kedves [zero], mi szel hozott?
<28> !love
<25> Java from Apt.... LimeWire from a rpm pack with alien
<2> Love is a snowmobile racing across the tundra, which suddenly flips over, pinning you underneath. At night, the ice weasels come.
<20> Hogy vagy kedves bkvjegy, mi szel hozott?
<28> oops
<9> nickrud: Yeah I'm looking
<15> phoghawk: it means to make the mounted stuff have '777' permission if available...
<29> bjones: it should auto detect a wide screen when you first install, did u just replace a regular monitor with ur widescreen one?
<25> "You need to upgrade to JRE 1.4.x"
<15> phoghawk: kind-of. "man umask" will help.
<16> dooglus, lol, I'll check that out. Thanks a bunch
<15> phoghawk: I use "noauto,user,umask=0,iocharset=iso8859-1,uid=1000,codepage=850" for my vfat mounts. I don't know why - it's been like that for years.
<27> ?
<16> now that my HDD problems are solved, I can move onto more important things. I think an ant just bit my testicles
<15> phoghawk: maybe you want to set a charset or codepage though? I don't know...
<25> mystamax: "You need to upgrade to JRE 1.4.x"
<30> hahahahahah
<5> KickStand, see the modeline under Section "Modes" that is uncommented? (no # preceeding)
<16> dooglus, I don't know what either of those are
<15> phoghawk: the "uid-1000" bit makes the files look like they're owned by me, rather than by root
<15> uid=1000, that is.
<16> dooglus, cool, I want that. I'll add it
