<5> and see in folder?
<6> Hit3k did you install the ones it mentioned in the resitrctedformats wiki?
<3> yes
<7> can ubuntuwrite ntfs
<8> banie: NTFS write is not safe. Nonetheless, an experimental version is supported.
<9> whats the command to get the wizard that configure xorg.conf???



<8> banie: rumour has it, that this version *won't* trash your filesystem -- most of the time.
<5> how to see ntfs in ubuntu
<10> hi im having a few problems with the grub loader and ubuntu can anyone give me a hand?
<5> i know that
<11> any way i can get a gnome-centric application to support webdav in kubuntu?
<7> which is that exp version
<6> davvyk :)
<8> banie: read NTFS is supported. Download and run this script: http://ca.geocities.com/ic56@rogers.com/65/diskmounter-latest.txt
<10> cheers snoops. basicaly ive installed ubuntu to my external hard drive but the grub loader doesnt show it just boots straight tru to windows
<8> banie: It will setup your /etc/fstab and mountpoints in /media so you can see your NTFS filesystems in Places> Computer
<6> yeah are you booting from the external device?
<5> how to setup ic56?
<8> banie: If you don't supply any flags, it will interactively ask you if you want to enable NTFS write. Answer no.
<12> hello
<13> anyone that have firefox 1.5.0.4 could open this link ? i get X.org crashes only with konqueror i can open the url http://www.securityfocus.com/data/vulnerabilities/exploits/sendtest.c
<5> i can see in console
<14> How would I go about reversing this, just in case? http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=145068&highlight=aiglx
<5> not in folder..why?
<10> i just ***umed the grub loader was loaded to the mbr on the internal hard drive.so would show by default
<15> is multiverse supported by ubuntu or is it at the same level as back-ports ??
<12> firefox extensions do not work anymore :(
<6> davvyk pretty sure it would install itself into the external hdd..
<12> i can install them and they should work on the following firefox restart, but when i do it i get the same message over and over
<12> any hint?
<10> ah rite. will ahve a fiddle in the bios n see if i can boot from ma external drive tho have feeling i cant
<8> banie: point your browser to that URL, and page down to "usage()" Read the instructions from there on down. They say to save the file (save-as in your browser) and tell you how to execute. The script does the rest. I'm the author of this version, so I can answer questions and help if anything goes wrong.
<14> Also, what's the difference between compiz-vanilla and compiz-quinn?
<14> !xgl

<4> suprchris, k. I'm back
<2> k
<2> cdrom cdrom0 cdrom1 floppy floppy0 sda1 sdb1
<2> that's what's in ls /media
<4> suprchris, okay, try : sudo chmod a+rw /path/to/mounted/drive/ -R
<4> suprchris, er wait :P
<5> where to write that script?
<8> banie: anywhere
<4> suprchris, okay, try : sudo chmod a+rw /media/sda1 -R
<7> i've got an ubuntu install; but how can login as root user
<12> is anybody else facing this problem with firefox?
<2> wow what a screenfull
<4> !tell kbh about sudo
<2> now i know what that drive is
<2> it's my primary partition
<2> of windows
<4> suprchris, there ya go. I take it you run a SCSI drive then?
<2> sata
<7> quite new to linux no idea on sudo
<2> hey i've been there
<2> i know what it stands for
<2> super user do
<2> a shortcut to becoming root
<4> suprchris, there ya go ... I guess SATA registers as a SCSI drive, just like a USB hard drive or pen drive will.
<7> so any clue on root user and pwd



<4> kbh, well, if you read the URL that ubotu gave you, you'll be able to find out more about sudo :)
<2> if you set up normally the root p***word is the same as the one you made at start up
<17> kbh, yeah, check out theurl.
<7> ok letme try
<4> kbh, and you'll find out what you're asking for.

<4> I hate it when someone gives some info, and the person recieving it takes a look at the links and says "nope ... that's not what I need ... tell me what I need ..."
<19> hmm, i'm running a radeon m7 mobility, now it's working on the "ati" driver, and direct rendering is working... should i try to work with xgl or aiglx?
<4> NET||abuse, aiglx is for Fedora Core
<20> but this is also called a communication error :)
<19> it is? i knew it was part of fedora core release, but it's inlcuded in the ubuntu wiki entry as suitable for systems running on the open source drivers
<2> you know, crippsfx, I've spent like 10years learning one OS that it's really weird to hop into another.
<2> I appreciate your help
<4> webmind, that's the flip side of the coin ... but to figure out if it's irrelevant, it requires actually loading the link and reading
<20> CrippsFX, usually yes
<4> suprchris, it's no problem. I know the feeling :)
<4> suprchris, I only switched to linux about 5 years ago.
<2> how did you ever grasp the commands
<20> suprchris, using them
<19> suprchris, practive
<19> practice *
<4> suprchris, practice. use it a lot, try to do "new and interesting" things.
<20> and reading lost manpages :)
<21> suprchris, up, practice is pretty much it. Which OS are you used to?
<20> err
<19> suprchris, also, bash scripting, and other styles of scripting help alot
<2> windows
<20> s/lost/lots/
<21> suprchris, well, windows is the same
<2> yeah but it's all point and click
<4> lol ... I only started reading manpages more this past year ... I sort of used howtos and stuff to get all the commands in here *taps head*
<21> suprchris, there are all sorts of commands in windows that it takes a while to get used to, and in windows the syntax changes from program to program :)
<10> can anyone think of a reason y my ubuntu cd doesnt seem to have a option to boot from the cd as opposed to the hd
<21> suprchris, in linux the syntax is consistent and you have man pages. Man pages rock. :)
<20> CrippsFX, well I only use them to learn more about a command I already know
<2> the weirdest thing i had to get used to is the file system
<6> davvyk you can get a bootable grub cd
<19> davvyk, that won't be the cd.. that'll be your boot order settings in bios
<4> webmind, same.
<4> suprchris, yeah, but once you get used to it, you realize how logical it is.
<20> and clear.. imho
<19> suprchris, it's actually remarkably simple idea... way more logical than ***igning something so limited as drive letter
<10> oh no the disc boots up to the ubuntu menu but it doesnt have a option to just boot live off disc
<19> letters
<4> ... unless you're using puppylinux or a non-standard distro ... then you take one look at "ls /" and got WTF?
<2> oh how do i change the boot order in grub so that windows comes up first
<6> should be the first option davvyk
<2> i just use it more that's why i ask
<2> for now
<19> suprchris, boot order in grub.. or drive boot order?
<20> NET||abuse, well atleast it's more close to the truth
<6> suprchris you'll want to edit your /boot/menu.lst
<6> err /boot/grub/menu.lst
<10> that just tried to install. hmmm il have to investigate
<2> as it stands ubuntu is the first choice and it auto boots
<19> ah yeh, then the menu.lst file
<2> after like ten secs
<19> just change the line that says default 0 to default 4 or something
<22> suprchris: the options are self obvious
<19> then it'll have windows highlighted in grub instead of your default kernel.
<12> how do i uninstall and reinstall firefox?
<2> k i'll look the next time
<2> thanks
<19> sudo apt-get remove firefox
<22> suprchris: change the options you like, & run 'sudo update-grub'
<4> and make sure that you have the "prompt" option enabled in the header of the menu.lst file .... and change timeout to 3.
<4> ;)
<4> at least those are my preferences :P
<4> Hallo Tomcat_ , wie geht's ?
