Comments:
<0> u use KDE or gnome ?
<1> not to mention I don't really need a window to say look at me unless I really want to monitor it anyways :P
<2> polpak, pastebin url for dapper?
<1> Gnome
<3> you might be interested peeps.. Google just released Google Earth Beta 4 for Linux :)
<4> hm
<5> jani_, old news, at least 12 hours old ;)
<4> what gives with the Ubuntu "You may not enter an underscore" rule inside the installer?
<6> how do i download numlockx?
<7> !find numlockx
<3> nickrud, just read my mails :)
<8> numlockx: (enable NumLock in X11 sessions), section universe/x11, is optional. Version: 1.1-3ubuntu1 (dapper), Packaged size: 10 kB, Installed size: 88 kB
<9> suprchris: apt-get install numlockx ?
<10> suprchris, it's in Ubuntu's repos, just install it w/ apt-get or Synaptic
<6> i can't find it in synaptc
<5> Frogzoo, does the touching of the forcefsck in / still work (haven't tried it recently)
<6> and apt-get says something to that effect too
<0> Snowfairy: maybe if you change some settings you can make it stop, I don't use gnome, so I can't give you exact instructions
<11> Can I dl the updates here in windows burn on cd and install in UBUNTU?
<1> akudewan, searching throught gconf-editor, can't seem to find anything ;(
<12> please i have read restricted formats before and i have installed all the pakages and totem plays nothing
<10> suprchris, do you have Universe repo enabled?
<13> how can i install universe repositories from the command line?
<5> StaindTX, yes, but it's not trivial, and probably not worth it
<6> i don't know
<14> how come Rhythmbox says that all my mp3's are not valid, but totem has no problem with them?
<15> AH, much better..
<6> send me a link on how i guess
<2> polpak, ok I see
<16> I'm stuck in windows at work, and want to run vmware player with a dapper image. anyone know where I can download a prebuilt image?
<17> udo: you don't install repositories. you enable repositories, or install packages. which do you want?
<18> Ayabara, try a search on the wiki, someone has written a guide i think
<17> udo: a repository is a collection of packages
<19> loxety: once you do that just sudo apt-get update and you should be good
<16> Matthewv: ok, thanks
<0> Snowfairy: I think this is a bug, have a look at this page: https://launchpad.net/products/libwnck/+bug/31134
<5> Jaak_, have you looked at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats yet? That should get going in rhythmbox
<13> enable repositories
<11> LMFAO ok new here what the heck is wiki? I heard of wifi but not wiki
<17> udo: edit /etc/apt/sources.list
<20> nickrud: grep forcefsk /etc/init.d/checkfs.sh that's a cool trick - didn't know that was there...
<12> please help me, when you don't help me i will be forced to use windows :(
<21> it's a wiki wiki web StaindTX.. you haven't been to wikipedia?!
<18> StaindTX, take a look at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/
<14> ok thanks
<5> Frogzoo, it's an old debian trick ...
<1> staindtx wiki is kinda like a colloboratively edited website. Very neat.
<22> question... with the /media directory in place, what is the purpose of the /mnt directory?
<4> what's the default root pw for ubuntu?
<18> StaindTX, it is a user-editable documentation repository
<12> :'(
<11> ahhhhh ok
<2> polpak, yes that seems to have fixed it thank you
<22> robert_, there is none.
<1> akudewan, taking a look. :)
<11> Well like I said snow...New.... got UBUNTU from a friend he sd to try it out and here I am LOL
<22> robert_, take a look at this: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo
<13> how can i enable?
<11> so basically all the language is spanish to me right now...but I will learn in time
<10> kiroh, start Totem, go Help->About - does it mention 'xine' or 'gstreamer'?
<4> cparker: then how come I can't login as root?
<4> ah
<23> .
<15> The default root pw for Ubuntu is random. You use sudo until you set the root p***word yourself.
<12> yes GStreamer 0.10.6
<5> which you should never do, setting a root p***word.
<18> Ayabara, additionally, you might want to look at http://www.vmware.com/vmtn/appliances/directory/ vmware has a number of operating systems available for download and running, ubuntu 5.10 is there, I'm not sure about dapper
<23> 0
<23> .++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
<24> hey people :D I have some trouble with flumotion, has anyone ever used it? somehow the flumotion manager makes probles, could use some help--
<19> don't set the root p***word. Use sudo
<15> Why wouldn't you want a root p***word?
<19> Dirge: why would you?
<22> Dirge: because root is dangerous.
<13> how can i enable universe repositories for xine support?
<25> ./GoogleEarthLinux.bin: ./setup.sh: /bin/sh: bad interpreter: Permission denied
<11> Opppssss...
<25> what does the above error mean?
<17> polpak: you would want one so that when your sudo stops working, you have a fallback
<13> or install the packages
<11> Been messin in root sense the beginning
<19> dooglus: that's what rescue mode is for
<17> polpak: I don't have a rescue mode
<5> Dirge, it's a target for hackers. They probably won't try to force the p***word of a random user on a machine that has admin privs
<19> dooglus: if sudo stops working something is wrong
<15> Same here. I'm not used to having no control over my OS. (I don't use Mac)
<0> Snowfairy: I found a way to disable it: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+ticket/113
<17> polpak: yes. it comes up here a lot though.
<19> Dirge: sudo gives you plenty of control
<3> udo, run synaptic... Settings >>> Repositories... check the Universe and Multiverese ... close it then do update
<12> :'(
<2> couldnt find the package libfontsconfig1-dev in apt-get
<12> :'(
<1> akudewan thank you very much :)
<10> kiroh, stop.
<0> np :)
<20> kiroh: naughty naughty
<17> polpak: ubuntu doesn't stop me deleting the last admin user.
<5> dooglus, yeah, people that mess with /etc/hosts badly
<12> then please help
<19> dooglus: true enough
<17> polpak: once nobody is left in the admin group, there's no more sudo access allowed
<26> Can someone show me how I actually get to the wireless AP listing part of network-manager?
<26> I can't figure this program out
<12> whi noone answer???
<16> Matthewv: that's what I saw too. guess I'll run fc5 if I can't find dapper
<22> kiroh: did you ask a question?
<19> dooglus: that's why there's rescue mode
<17> polpak: how do I run rescue mode?
<10> dooglus, that's what recovery console is for...
<5> dooglus, or recovery disks
<12> please i have read restricted formats before and i have installed all the pakages and totem plays nothing
<27> i'm trying to access my vsftpd server through WAN, but i can't seem to get it to work, my server is behind 2 routers, so in both routers i opened TCP 20, 21 and 44000 - 44128 for pasv, and vsftp is aware of the 44000-44128 limitation, yet I can't connect through wan, what might be up?
<28> thanks.. that worked :)
<18> Ayabara, k, hope it works well for you
<13> jani_ why multiverse?
<10> dooglus, thru GRUB
<19> dooglus: reboot and select it from the grub menu
<17> Madpilot: recovery console? isn't that a windows program?
<17> Madpilot: GRUB won't work on this PC
<16> Matthewv: me to :-)
<10> dooglus, whatever it's called - the option in GRUB
<12> why totem plays nothing???
<17> I use LILO. Can I still get rescue mode?
<5> me rolls around, seriously laughing
<27> kiroh: because you want mplayer, OR totem-xine
<24> kroh: install vlc
<5> dooglus, yes, just boot lnx-bbc and edit /etc/hosts and fix it
<12> what is the diference???
<27> i personally prefer totem-xine because its prettier
<17> nickrud: lnx-bbc? what's that?
<19> kiroh: which is hilarious, since I told you to install totem-xine like 30 mins ago
<24> much better and no codec trouble, build in..
<29> hi. where do i find the kernel log when running from 6.06 livecd?
<5> dooglus, a seriously ancient live boot disk
<18> dooglus, or you could boot the ubuntu desktop cd or install cd, either chroot into partition or just boot rescue
<12> but that is not the same that totem???
<30> vith: /var/log/kern.log
<19> kiroh: no
<12> sorry i'am new
<12> ok i will install that
<17> nickrud: I'd rather have the root p***word set for such an emergency, rather than downloading and booting an unknown live cd... where's the greater risk?
<5> dooglus, I keep it for archival purposes, just use any live cd, lke knopix
<31> I tried to edit the sources.list, and the response is unknown mime type -- using "application/*"
<22> so, what's the difference between /media and /mnt? is /mnt even necessary anymore?
<32> does anyone have any experience with running bastille on their system? Is it worth trying out?
<31> I presume that means it has no idea what to open that file type with?
<5> *knoppix
