Comments:

<0> heh
<1> does anyone have insight into what it takes to install ubuntu as a guest OS on Xen?
<2> snoops; but when not using apt-get i have to choose, where to?
<0> (and that's not limited to linux for that matter)
<3> calisee: Give me a sec. should be able to find a link for you. :)
<4> AlexC_: yes. Though GTK is a library and it can be used in conjunction with XFCE or KDE. Mind you, much of that library's purpose is to let processes communicate with each other. In a KDE environment you're GTK-linked process will be all alone with no one to talk to. Besides, KDE has its own competing library and running both is just inefficient. XFCE is meant to be light and running GTK defeats that purpose.
<5> installing as root, means you need to run as root it seems... I chmod -R the whole /usr/local dir, to 777 and still no working!
<6> i need help with installing cvscedega. the installation (i used WineCVS.sh) goes fine but when i run cvscedega i get http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15659 Ideas?
<7> eyequeue, then none of the two works
<8> anybody know if ubuntu will use CNR in next release?
<4> AlexC_: s/you're/your/
<9> well gaim,irssixchat,xchat-gnome so on
<10> !flash
<11> Installation & troubleshooting for Flash is covered in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
<12> ic56, humm I see
<13> jorgg when do you have to choose?



<7> eyequeue, i had the same problem in breezy
<0> ic56, then again, running "just qt" or "just gtk" isn't a real-life option for most practical uses isn't it :/
<14> It's too many people here.
<9> lucasvo: too early to tell
<15> kiroh, that's too bad, i don't know what to suggest, other than another player such a vlc
<7> ok :'(
<16> hello everybody. Is there someone that can help me with a bluetooth problem?
<2> Snoops: downloaded a file want to install..
<12> ic56, would be so much easier if they used the same - same goes for packages, would be easier if every linux distro used the same package management
<9> jorgg: what kind of file?
<3> calisee: Is this it? http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=346612
<15> !ask
<11> For information on how to ask good questions please see http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html The more information you can give the better we can help you. If your going to give output of commands please use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
<10> !bluetooth
<11> [bluetooth] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BluetoothSetup and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BluetoothRemote
<2> gnomefreak; google earth
<13> what type of file jorgg? a .deb?
<4> AlexC_: it would be, but then we'd be stuck with something we didn't like. Variety is the spice of life and different strokes work for different folks.
<9> google earth still .exe only? than you need wine
<17> I got google earth working
<0> AlexC_, it wouldn't be linux if they would do that.. that's what you get with a free and open community :)
<17> it is available for linux now
<13> you'll want to use dpkg to install a .deb, if you can't get it through apt..
<18> iiiears: that looks like it could be of some use, thanks I'll give it a try
<2> snoops: bin
<17> it is downloaded as a .bin
<9> jughead: tar?
<0> ic56, that is such a myth. sure, different strokes work for different folks, but rarely all strokes you need come from the same brush
<9> ah bin ;)
<16> i've read all of these, but i've a strange problem
<19> hey ya'll...
<17> hello GoDawgs
<2> google earth is in beta version for linux
<12> nostalg1c, ic56 true true - I like the flexibility Linux does off you in that respect - but some standards and rules need to be set, and I just think that is one of them that's needed.
<20> variety is good, getting the job done is better :-)
<6> i need help with installing cvscedega. the installation (i used WineCVS.sh) goes fine but when i run cvscedega i get http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15659 Ideas?
<10> Bugs are like lays potato chips. You can't just have one.
<7> eyequeue, it is strange, because i only hear the sound, but i see nothing
<15> AlexC_, and i respectfully disagree emphatically :)
<19> I'm trying again to install Dapper since the final just came out. I'm curious though. Why does the CD auto load to LIVE verson rather than give you the option to install?
<0> AlexC_, there are initiatives for standards and rules as you define them -- but most of them fail horribly
<4> nostalg1c: you've taken that metaphor to places I don't understand. Care to explain?
<21> Someone has to help me... I now have no bootloader at all... I can't run any operating systems! Can someone help me reinstall grub... I'm completely stuck. I have a bit of a different setup... I've tried the recovering grub wiki page... its not working. neither is the super grub installer. Could someone /msg me who knows anything about grub?
<7> and i have installed the windows codecs too
<22> GoDawgs: you can install it when you are on the live cd
<15> GoDawgs, all cds offer install at the first menu
<22> GoDawgs: it's a install and livecd combined
<23> Is there a way to (during boot) check if a network cable is plugged in, and if it's not don't load that interface at all ?
<24> ompaul, computer is booted without nvidia card, im logged in, not sure where to go to get nic working
<10> !grub
<11> http://wiki.ubuntu.com/GrubHowto or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows or troubleshooting grub: http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/grub.html#Troubleshooting
<15> GoDawgs, otherwise, there is an install icon on that livecd desktop
<0> ic56, sure, i probably got yours wrong to begin with, since i don't know what a stroke is ^^ i linked it to "a stroke of a brush" but that might not be the correct meaning. i meant that "choice of environments" is a good thing, but the fact that this choice limits you as to what programs you can run is not
<21> garryfre: Tried that.
<19> KenSentMe: Oh okay... so it's different than before... I have to boot to the live desktop to install.... got it
<0> (and yes, i know you can run all, but in the spirit of this conversation we were talking about running just one)
<22> GoDawgs: yep, it's one cd instead of 2
<25> Stormx2: recovering grub is damn easy, if none of those worked for you, the problem is you



<0> haha kensentme
<4> AlexC_: GNOME, IMO, will win over KDE eventually. It has the right breeding. XFCE and others like ion will remain for obvious reasons -- they serve specialized markets that are unable or unwilling to use the big heavy gui.
<19> KenSentMe: Ok ... I'll give it another go...
<0> use remote!
<15> GoDawgs, didn't you get a menu before it booted to the livecd?
<26> does anyone have this message " Find Sensor UNKNOW_0 force Tas5130
<19> thanks for your input too eyequeue :)
<26> "
<21> Starseed: Oh thanks. Is that the help I get?
<22> nostalg1c: what?
<27> Sh4d0, System Administration Networking
<0> oh, your nick isn't an allusion to LSL?
<23> Is there a way to (during boot) check if a network cable is plugged in, and if it's not don't load that interface at all ? (Alternately tell the system not to wait 15 secs before realising there really is no cable there).
<21> Like I said, I have an odd setup.
<3> Sh4d0: Who makes your NIC? What type is ist? "lsmod" in a terminal will print the needed info for you.
<19> eyequeue: Yes. However, install of prompting me if I wanted to install or just boot to the Live CD, it just auto loaded the live portion. I want to install.
<4> nostalg1c: ah, I get you now. Yes, I agree.
<12> nostalg1c, that's why I think a standard widget/window manager should be inplace - so that applications can run on any desktop environment the user wishes, and not haev to worry about compatibility issues
<22> nostalg1c: yes it is :D
<26> does anyone have this message " Find Sensor UNKNOW_0 force Tas5130" in dmesg with a Vimicro webcam ???
<15> GoDawgs, hit tab or esc to prevent it from just plowing forward :)
<16> i've a strange bluetooth problem. my bluetooth dongle is up and running, it works fine sending files to my nokia 6630, but the BD address is 00:00:00:00:00:00. Can someone help me?
<0> KenSentMe, you need to use the remote control to switch the tv to the correct channel so the guard will let you go upstairs.. :)
<19> eyequeue: ok.... noted. THank you so much!
<2> where is the usual place to install programs for all useres in ubuntu?
<1> does anyone have insight into what it takes to install ubuntu as a guest OS on Xen?
<19> let me give me another go
<19> thanks again!
<10> I got stuck like that once and had to run fdisk /mbr on the windows partition to get windows access. Also sometimes I could get access by setting a drive in a multi-drive system as the one to try to boot from in bios.
<21> I've got go eat dinner... if someone knows anything about recovering GRUB after a windows install and WON'T link me to the wiki I've read and re-read, please msg me so I can see afterwards.
<0> AlexC_, there's the free desktop initiative that strides to create general standards between the big DE's
<22> nostalg1c: i know, thought you responded to a question here, it's too hot here to think straight
<15> jorgg, apt-get install is how that's ususally done
<0> KenSentMe, for real.. way too hot
<15> jorgg, manually, you may be looking for /usr/local/bin/
<22> nostalg1c: dutch too?
<2> eyequeue; but when not using apt-get and have to choose dir.
<0> belgian actually, but that probably won't make the difference.. :)
<2> eyequeue; okay
<22> nostalg1c: it doesn't
<28> I got some help "setting the suid bit" in k3b yesterday, and now the app won't start. It starts with sudo k3b, but keeps ejecting the cd when in the middle of jobs
<29> hi anyone using ubuntu on a dell latitude d820? im curious if anyone has found a solution to this bug https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.15/+bug/43745
<12> nostalg1c, oh right - I hope they get the standards set =) also ic56 I think that to ( with gnome wining over KDE ) - but only with the next major release
<5> woohooo, got google earth working :D
<30> any speak spanish?
<17> sweet Snellgrove
<9> osvaldo: #ubuntu-es
<15> osvaldo, #ubuntu-es
<31> ompaul, i got it to work.... seems there is a problem with automount...
<3> Hola osvaldo bienvinidos to ubuntu
<3> !es
<11> Para Espaol por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
<0> ic56, imho, KDE is better than gnome atm, but seeing how KDE is all about proprietary QT, well, that just won't work out ^^
<32> ompaul, nic working
<33> Has anyone had problems with Dapper and CUPS?
<6> i need help with installing cvscedega. the installation (i used WineCVS.sh) goes fine but when i run cvscedega i get http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15659 Ideas?
<4> AlexC_: I disagree with the others on one point: Standards tend to evolve much better in Free Software than they do in commercial software. Linux has a lot more standards than other places. Given the vast variety of apps available, the presence of of only 2 major GUI standards (an older one, and a newer one under a freer license) is a testament to this.
<10> Only when I forget to turn on my printer.
<17> dapper recognized my HP printer no problems Lpadmin
<31> now i just need to figure out how to get it to autumount again
<34> what is the best recent book on linux in general , not concentrating on any distro
<0> ic56, kde vs gnome or xfree vs x.org?
<0> or qt vs gtk
<15> nostalg1c, linux is about choices, not homogeneity :) that said, even though i don't like kde, qt is finally under a free license
<35> any amavis gurus?
<36> winbond, O'Reilly's Linux books, generally - I like the Linux Handbook & the Linux Cookbook
<12> ic56, I'd of thought standards would evolve slower in open source - as there is a much much larger user base coding ( I ***ume? ) so it would be harder to enforce these standards without taking away Linux's choice and flexibility
<17> I like KDE, but I'm giving gnome a go
<31> !da
<37> sladen: it worked, but all the colours are messed up, think i got it wrong somewhere
<33> Jughead, after upgrading to Dapper, I had some problems with package dependencies and cupsys.
<11> Spaceraverlinux: Do they come in packets of five. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
<10> Usuallly I find by the time a book is written on something, its obsolete.
<28> any good alternatives to k3b?
