<0> Hi, I am trying to compile gnome-libs and am getting this error "Berkeley db library required for Gnome". I just installed the libglib2.0-dev package, but am still getting the same error.
<1> how can I format a disk (real format like putting random on it) ?
<2> fr77be: I never knew of any command to manually change the resolution of a running X server. cntrl-alt-+ and cntrl-alt-minus cycle through pre-configured resolutions in the xorg.conf, though
<3> funkja install automatix is more easy
<4> udo: can you hear anything with ``aplay /usr/share/sounds/startup.wav''?
<0> what is automatix?
<5> I beleve it has to do with that xorg.conf,
<6> automatix is an automatic installer for a bunch of commonly used apps
<5> I had to answer some questions on my configuration incl. keyboard and mouse and also for my resolution
<7> !automatix
<3> thanks <6>
<0> okay, ill check it out
<3> ;)
<8> crimsun no
<6> np
<4> udo: do you have multiple sound devices?



<9> nostalg1c heh... it's a shell script that does the install :)
<10> !+automatix
<11> I guess automatix is a script that automates installation of some items. It has been reported that it may break your system, please see http://help.ubuntu.com and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UserDocumentation instead. For help with and discussion of Automatix please join #automatix.
<9> .bin is a funny extension
<7> oh that is it ompaul thanx
<5> now I want to do the same in ubuntu 64 but I lost the line. It was to make changes in the standard values
<8> yes my system detect a other device
<10> funkja, ^^ that comment by ubotu
<8> tv tuner card
<12> Whats a good program for download music on ubuntu?
<13> <4>T***aDarK: the root of the issue is that many usb sound devices are manufactured from designs that exceed (a.k.a. break) the usb audio spec, so the alsa driver has to hard-code quirks into the driver for them. These quirks ***ume certain values that, when dmix is enabled, cause the device to appear to perform poorly. Thus I (since I handle much of the audio in Ubuntu kernels) decided not to enable dmix by default just for convenience. <---
<13> i read it now (i was dinning) & i understand, thanks for de explanation :-)
<4> udo: which device are you trying to use?
<14> can i make gnome save my session so when i log back in it is restored, like in breezy??
<15> is it possible to uninstall mozilla? :| i just want to have firefox
<16> nothing....
<8> how can i check
<0> Stupid Question: How do you check whether you are running Dapper or Breezy?
<16> i can log in only with
<5> does anyone know how the change your resolution if it is not in the list?
<16> nothing, i can only log in as the root///
<17> funkja: lsb_release -c
<0> thanks
<7> frank_: !+resoultion
<8> VIA 8237
<4> udo: Has sound ever been audible?
<18> _antix, hey, thanks, I just learnt somtehing.
<15> also, how does one set up a script to launch gaim on bootup?
<14> !resolution
<11> resolution is probably at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto
<8> audible?
<14> fr77be ^^
<7> so ubotu hate me today
<13> but crimsun_ where i enable/disable that "dmix" thing? or is a plugin i have to download?
<19> Hi, I solved a big problem I had with a breezy to dapper upgrade
<10> farous, that bot is a bot - it has no emotins
<4> udo: have you ever heard anything from that sound device?
<10> emotions
<17> JohnsonE: system > preferences > sessions
<8> no
<20> farous: only when you don't query the bot right. it's !resolution
<15> thanks jason
<4> T***aDarK: just use plug:dmix. It's already included.
<7> ompaul: i know just kidding
<21> !fish
<11> somebody said fish was A way to access another computer's files using a simple SSH shell account and standard UNIX utilities on the remote side.
<4> T***aDarK: e.g., ``aplay -Dplug:dmix /usr/share/sounds/startup.wav''
<19> after reboot, I had partitions missing and after dpkg-reconfigure kernel it wouldn't boot at all
<16> please help me with KDE i can only log in as the root if i log with the normal user it says could not start kstartconfig please check your installation
<15> to startup gaim on boot, would i just set the command as "gaim"?
<8> what can i do now?
<17> JohnsonE: yep
<7> after my second coffee and still not functioning mm good thing i postponed the meetin
<19> the problem was in breezy I had a 686-smp kernel, which didn't get upgraded,
<13> but i have to use that command for every thing? there is not a "dmix" enable by default?
<4> udo: try: amixer set 'External Amplifier' off
<5> he guys, I found it in the manual. type: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg in your terminal and you can make changes to your configuration presets
<4> T***aDarK: look at the dmixplugin page on alsa2.opensrc.org
<13> t***adar@Aiur-1:~$ aplay -Dplug:dmix /usr/share/sounds/startup.wav
<13> ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:819:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave
<13> aplay: main:544: error al abrir audio: Dispositivo recurso ocupado

<30> sabe algien como se compila el skyeye
<31> i kinda like the look of xubuntu
<32> Hi i'm installing Ubuntu 6.06 atm and I wonder how to set up partitions properly, I've created a 8gb ext3 partition for /
<32> but how much space should I set to the swap partition and is /boot really needed at all? :)
<10> DarkRavenMixage, you have done something wrong if all you can do is log in as root - that is not default behaviour for Ubuntu and it seems to be a little strange to me (but that is just me)
<31> Perkabalo; no more than 1024MB of swap should be needed
<31> a decent rule is double your ram
<23> hey how do u partion when ur installin ubuntu
<33> Perkabalo, usually swap should be twice ur ram
<14> whats a good audo converter??
<25> Jowi, i want it to run when i reboot, or shutdown my comp
<24> Maestro739: with a graphical interface if you use the desktop-cd. text based partitioning if you use any of the other cds
<34> hello, room
<32> ok thanks, but what about /boot needed?
<35> Hey guys...how can I empty the trash from the console>?
<31> Perkabalo; no, if you dont make one it will be /boot on your root
<31> Perkabalo; but if you do make one, youll be fine with 100mb
<36> hello!
<36> i'm an idiot and automatix uninstalled my nvidia drivers
<36> and now i have no idea how to get them back
<29> valehru: I believe the folder is ~/.trash
<4> udo: according to your pastebin you do.
<14> whats a good audio converter??
<32> ok thanks! Really appreciate it!
<37> !pastebin
<11> Please do not flood the channel http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ for pasting long texts it does not disrupt the channel. [webboard for Ubuntu: http://www.gnomefiles.org/app.php?soft_id=1269 : not an offical package].
<31> B***etts; from what format to what format?
<15> so guys, where might some remnants of VMware-player be hiding on my system? I tried all the uninstalls but the server still says there's a previous version.
<36> if someone could just tell me where/how to update the nvidia drivers i'd be more than greatful
<24> roostishaw: you should put it in /etc/init and symlink it to /etc/rc6.d with a proper name
<22> i want a nice music player (wma/mp3/wav) for ubuntu, are there any?
<17> valehru, Iinuxerist: note that you need an uppercase T, ~/.Trash
<36> via commandline
<14> keleus, i would like if possible to convert to many things
