<0> I'm trying to compile gnome-libs and it tells me that I need Berkeley Database library. Where can I get this?
<1> ubotu: tell daveyj about nvidia
<2> _jason: Okay. I am on SuSE as I said.
<3> keleus: but if not possible, mp3 to ogg
<4> i cant go to the webpage though :(
<5> B***etts look into sox, for starters. Otherwise, you can use mpg123 and pipe it through to oggenc :D
<4> i'm stuck in terminal.. the drivers got uninstalled when i used automatix
<4> and i cant boot into the xserver
<3> keleus, ok thanks
<6> thanks guys
<1> daveyj: maybe you can use lynx?
<4> lynx.. not on here
<7> well just one more question, if I got 1024 ram and then the swap should be 2048, or is it enough with 1024 ? :)
<4> i tried that
<5> daveyj; to get you at least back and running, open /etc/X11/xorg.conf and find the nvidia driver decleration. change it to vesa.
<8> Jowi, oh oh oh... so i need to put the actual script i want to run in /etc/init



<8> ?
<4> vesa eh? :) nice thank you
<9> hm, which filesystem is the most stable, and compatible for linux?
<5> it will be slow but it works
<2> Perkabalo: 1024 will be fine
<10> fat32!!
<7> ok!
<11> crimsun External Amplifier',is 0 how can i do off
<9> heh
<5> daveyj; actually, make it nv
<12> is someon could helpme under e16 my menu user don't work when i left clic
<9> ext or reiser
<13> udo: I gave you the command.
<14> whats a good music player (wma/mp3/wav) for ubuntu?
<2> Gradius9: ext
<5> daveyj; its not quite vesa but its still not full support. its in between.
<4> minimal is fine
<9> ok, someone recommended reiser, why?
<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.
<4> just til i can boot into gnome and get the nvidia drivers
<4> thanks again :)
<16> roostishaw: you don't absolutely have to, but it is proper to do it that way. and easier to manage
<5> Driver "nvidia"
<5> change that to:
<9> ext3, right?
<5> Driver "nv"
<17> YES finally
<5> ?
<17> Google Earth for Linux
<8> Jowi, and by init u mean init.d right?
<5> siriusnova; im happy with maps.google.com :)
<14> i want a nice music player (with gui) (able to play wma/mp3/wav) for ubuntu; what is available?
<16> roostishaw: yep
<11> i cant change it why
<17> keleus - google earth just game out :D
<8> Jowi, ok, thank you! ill try it now...
<18> daveyj, have you asked in #automatix how to work with this?
<5> Some_Person; xmms is a decent one, like winamp
<19> hello I'm having troubles viewing a WMV file under mplayer. It says "Cannot find codec matching selected -vo and video format 0x33564D57. Sound is working !
<1> Some_Person: ubotu should have sent you a link to a list on the wiki
<5> bartmaniac; did you install w32codecs?
<14> it did
<19> keleus: yes
<14> i want to know the best one
<19> keleus; can I check if they are installed properly?
<5> bartmaniac; well, that 0x string is the video FourCC code
<5> convert that to ASCII and break it in half
<14> does mPlayer have a gui?
<20> 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
<5> that will help you find out what actual codec it is
<5> Some_Person; gmplayer
<21> Hey Hey Hey
<21> DarkRavenMixage: Does your login id have permission to run kstartconfig
<5> Some_Person; but when i tried it it was broken, no default skin (error and refused to launch)
<22> DarkRavenMixage: if you are running kubuntu, I recommend going to #kubuntu (/join #kubuntu), otherwise #kde might be the answer (/join #kde).
<18> DarkRavenMixage, have you asked in #kubuntu?
<23> How much space does Ubuntu take up?
<5> Some_Person; i mangled a basic skin to default and went from there :)
<24> Hola, tengo un problema con el booteo de una particin con windows... alguien me puede dar una mano?
<23> as in how much HD space do i need?
<5> Sneo; however much you make it?



<20> ompaul yes
<20> ....
<23> Whats minimum though keleus?
<24> sorry, i entered the wrong channel
<9> hm, ext3 is the newest?
<14> how come RhythmBox wont play mp3s?
<5> Sneo; how much do you have? running with minimum is gping to be tight
<16> Sneo: it will take up 1.5 GB for a desktop install. but you will need a minimum 3-3.5 GB for your / (root) partition for unpacking files.
<5> !tell Some_Person about restrictedformats
<18> DarkRavenMixage, well they are the kde experts we are in the land of gnome ;-) ergo I asked, what puzzles me is that you can log in as root, that should not be possible
<25> guys i have a serious problem on my hands
<26> Ninjadude: is it pirates?
<26> ;-)
<25> worse
<18> armed turtles?
<25> i was experimenting with xgl and now i wanna go back to good ol' xorg
<27> !vnc
<28> somebody said vnc was http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-36715.html, or http://www.tightvnc.com/docs.html, or see 'x11vnc' (VNC server which uses your current X11 session)
<23> thanks all!
<25> and im sitting here in my session and everything is FUBAR
<19> keleus: sorry, but how to convert to ascii ?
<26> Ninjadude: that's not a problem, or shouldn't be
<25> is there any way for me to get my old windows back and such :(
<26> Ninjadude: what guide did you use?
<5> Some_Person; mp3 has patent problems, so technically (in the USA for instance) you can't use it without paying someone... in this case anyways
<25> i thought reinstalling gdm will work but it doesnt
<29> is it same to write to a raid array while it is resyncing/rebuilding?
<25> krazykit: one sec ill get u a link
<5> Some_Person; so basically theres no support for it unless you install something
<14> what do i install
<30> I downloaded the source code for enlightenment....will compiling the source code on Build essential work?
<5> !restricted
<28> rumour has it, restricted is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats. This page's intent is to enable you to play most non-free media formats that are not DRM encoded. Most of the formats listed there can be replaced by !FreeFormats.
<5> read...
<8> Jowi, hmm... i just did a reboot, but it didnt run any of the commands. would it be a problem if some of them were things like: sudo cp /file /file2
<8> ?
<25> ok well
<25> i cant paste it to you
<25> because thats how messed up everything is
<25> i dont know if its my X or if its my gnome
<31> how can i make that it usbmouse and mousedev are loaded automatically?
<25> i think its gnome cuz i ran failsafe gnome and things were fine (aside from scripts not starting up)
<18> keleus, works better if you give the name of the person your talking to
<26> Ninjadude: um, what site? google could help
<16> roostishaw: no idea :)
<25> doc.gwos.org
<25> is the site
<32> hi all, anybody know how to run an X app as another user using sudo. I'm using `sudo -u ~user/app.bin`. the app starts okay but I get "Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server" and "Xlib: No protocol specified" I've tried copying my .Xauthority file to the other user's home directory and changing the owner, but no luck.
<16> roostishaw: probably no need to use sudo if the script is being run as root
<5> bartmaniac; what was the error again?
<20> 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
<25> all the bars used to move windows around etc are gone and i cant set focus using my mouse etc etc theres so many problems, sigh
<25> stupid XGL
<8> Jowi, ok, ill try that...
<25> all this for wiggly windows
<25> i got rid of those script files too btw
<33> :)
<33> all better
<9> hm, format as reiser4 or ext3? before install of linux.. does reiser4 have many disadvantages?
<5> ompaul; sorry ,replying to Some_Person
<26> Ninjadude: http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Installxgl ?
<18> DarkRavenMixage, couple you wait about 15 minutes between asks, it seems that no one knows the answer at this time
<18> !patience
<28> The people in this channel are volunteers. Please be aware there are a lot of questions, but only maybe few who might know the answer for you. Please be patient. Your attitude may determine their willingness to help you.
<25> krazykit: no, it was the "switch between xgl and xorg" one
<33> i noticed when i was booted using the vesa driver, i actually had 2 monitors working.. although in mirror
<25> if you click on the "Dapper" link at the bottom of the page it has an index, go to the S section
<33> can i do that with xgl?
<18> DarkRavenMixage, how come you got a root p***word that I find curious
<26> oh, ok, i saw that one too, Ninjadude. lemme just check it out
<25> k
<25> DaveyJ: dont touch XGL, it's the devil.
<33> lol i disagree
<25> and no, last i checked xgl doesnt support dual monitors
