Comments:
<0> eyequeue: I recommend you read lndir's man page :)
<1> ajax4, because your torrentling something?
<2> how do I specify filesystem type to mount a floppy disk?
<1> !restricted
<3> hmm... 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.
<4> lilbiz: bzflag and scroched3d are worth a try
<5> lilbit: bzflag is one of my favorite
<6> Stormx2: Wow! Ooops, I meant: have you tried root(hd0,<linux boot partition>) ; setup (hd0) ; quit
<7> ompaul: No, I don't even have bittorrent installed. That's what is confusing me.
<1> blkish, read that by ubotu ^^ up a few lines
<8> !floppy
<3> To mount floppy disks, see here : https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MakeFloppyDriveAvailableToEveryone
<1> ajax4, you do have a bittorrent client
<6> setup (hd0)
<6> quit
<9> ompaul: thanks, i'm interested in the free formats too (most, really!),are they available in the repos?
<6> issy: mount -f <fstype> ...
<10> Has anyone got Nethack installed on their machine?
<11> lilbit: crack-attack, dungeon, armagetron, frozen-bubble
<6> issy: oops: mount -t <fstype> ...
<12> I'm planning to install Ubuntu for a friend
<1> !freeformats
<3> There are a large number of Free Formats which are preferred over patent and copyright encumbered formats. They are listed here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FreeFormats
<13> nethack
<7> NegativeSpace: I have it installed.
<14> OK Guys, heres the thread with my GRUB problems in it! http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1133986
<12> what's the biggest resource for Ubuntu documentation?
<15> wiki.ubuntu.com
<16> google
<9> thanks guys, much appreciated :)
<10> ajax: Is it possible to play the ASCII version rather than the graphical?
<2> ic56, how can I tell what fstype it is?
<4> nooby_god: google? ;-)
<1> !tell Stormx2 about grub
<13> NegativeSpace: nethack-console
<12> I need one site for my friend to visit if he ever has problems
<17> Can anyone help me out printing to an IP printer?
<18> i cant access my harddrives can anyone help me
<18> ?
<1> Stormx2, its a well known headache
<14> ompaul: Tried that.
<11> nooby_god: ubuntuforums
<11> root_: ack! you shouldn't be logged in as root
<15> nooby_god: wiki.ubuntu.com is very good static documentation, ubuntuforums is pretty good dynamic documentation
<19> ompaul: not for me
<12> and after some googling I'm not sure if linux-wlan-ng is included with install
<19> NoUse: any idea on my ati issue?
<12> is it included?
<7> ompaul: Ok, its installed but its not running.
<12> thanks Spec
<19> can anyone help me get ati working?
<10> wastrel: I'm far too stupid to know what you mean.
<14> ompaul: been through basicly every step in the entire wiki... even the troubleshooting bit at the end.
<18> and can anyone how i logon root from gnome?
<20> i seem to be having a small prob with the resolution now, i cant get it changed to 1280x1024, not even after i add it to xorg.conf and reboot
<13> NegativeSpace: that's a package name, install the package 100%
<19> ok NoUse. how do I change it?
<1> Stormx2, not having windows I can't find a menu.lst that works
<6> issy: you can't with the standard utils. However, if you try to mount it without specifying, a type, mount will automatically try all known types and complain if none work.
<19> NoUse: how do I change the device? i ***ume it needs fglrx or something?
<7> ompaul: and definitely not running a tracker as bttrack would suggest.
<19> my screen has the wrong device listed. it's still pointing to ati can someone help me fix this?
<4> LiteHedded: I also ahve problems :-( Ati ****s.
<21> if i boot "6.06-alternate" networkcard does not get an ip from dhcp-server. if i boot "6.06-desktop" networkcard does get an ip from the dhcp-server. why?
<8> issy: did you try "auto" as suggested in "man mount"?
<19> worked in breezy fine
<19> after the upgrade not so much
<15> issy: what are you trying to mount that you don't know the filesystem for?
<10> wastrel: Ah, excellent. Thanks.
<1> ajax4, is anyone else allowed a logon to that box?
<22> hi, i experience serious lag when running snes emulator since the dapper upgrade, ive used different settings in zsnes and snes9express, and its still the same lag, ive even compiled my own zsnes, all it gave me was sound (which i didnt have) and thats all, same lag in every situation, does anyone knows a workaround for this ? or can tell me what to look for ?
<2> Spec: floppy disk
<7> ompaul: Nope.
<14> ompaul: Well I think it would spit out an error if my menu.lst was incorrect? Plus it hasn't changed since I installed XP. XP is in the place of Windows 98, my windows 2000 is still there, and that was the only other entry in my menu.lst except form the ubuntu stuff
<4> LiteHedded: Try deconf - that will create a new xorg.copnf
<2> Jowi, didn't see that in man mount
<4> dexconf - sorry
<23> http://pastebin.com/707024
<24> LiteHedded look at the screen section
<1> Stormx2, then it should work the same as the 2k entry afik
<19> of my xorg.conf NoUse?
<24> LiteHedded it has a device name, you'll see it points to one of the two device sections above
<24> LiteHedded yes
<1> ajax4, do this in a terminal >> ps auwx | grep torrent
<24> LiteHedded it needs to point to the device that has the fglx driver
<19> Section "Screen" Identifier "aticonfig-Screen[0]" Device "ATI Technologies, Inc. RV350 NP [Mobility Radeon 9600/9700 M10/M11]"
<25> on boot all my filesystems had the error that they had been mounted more than 30 times and a check was forced, why would this happen?
<1> Al-Daja-aWay, dont use auto aways here turn it off now please
<14> ompaul: Except, GRUB never loads!
<6> Stormx2: have you installed the grub bootloader on your Master Boot Record?
<14> I think so.
<14> Yeah
<7> ompaul: the only process that returns is the grep itself. How do I view the log messages upon shutdown so I can show you?
<19> NoUse: what should I change there?
<26> the new graphical ubuntu installer (dapper), can it resize fat and ext3 partitions?
<27> i'm getting a bit ****ing tired of this
<24> LiteHedded change it to the name of the device with the fglx driver
<14> setup(hd0)
<1> Al-Daja, is that turned off now?
<14> Didn't work.
<19> NoUse: I'm not sure what that means. sorry
<1> ajax4, never looked for a shutdown log in my life
<27> this is the third time i've installed ubuntu, and it isn't recognising the user i created during install, says the p***word is empty and prompts for a new one, then says the user doesn't exist and loops back to the prompt
<12> is there away to setup ubuntu that a lot of the tech stuff is transparent?
<13> linux is all about reinstalling
<24> LiteHedded in teh Screen section change Device to "aticonfig-Device[0]"
<13> at least at first.
<7> ompaul: Okay, I just found that was a weird message. You obviously don't get that when you shut down right?
<7> wastrel: no, WIndows is all about reinstalling.
<1> ajax4, not that I am aware of
<19> oh ok
<13> ajax4: no, linux is about reinstalling
<28> Sh4d0: how about login in recovery and fixing it?
<29> ink how can i ***ign the ed2k protocol to amule, to ***ign ed2k links to amule directly?
<27> how the hell do i do that
<12> linux is about reinstalling
<12> always
<1> nooby_god, wrong
<13> oh yeah
<24> nooby_god I don't reinstall very often at all
<6> Stormx2: if nothing seems to work, you need to tell us a lot more. For starters, we'll need a description of the disks and partitition layouts on your box. Also a copy of /boot/grub/menu.lst Finally, a record of what you did to install the grub bootloaders on your disk. With all that information ***embled in one place, a more considered opinion could be offered.
<7> wastrel: Linux you can reinstall if you want. Windows you HAVE to reinstall regularly.
<30> nooby_god, really? I've done it once in 14 months...
<19> NoUse: now it says Device "aticonfig-Device[0]"
<19> is that correct?
<1> wastrel, its not - as ajax4 points to
<12> ompaul: I've been a linux user for 7 or 8 years, there is always some damn reason to reintsall
<13> ajax4: linux you reinstall several times before you get it right
<26> nooby_god: I've in fact had less OS installs than PCs since running Debian...
<24> LiteHedded in the screen section, yes
<19> yes in the screen section
<27> Rambo3: how do i do that
<28> Sh4d0: in grub choose recovery , and type startex , open account managment and fix it
<19> so restart x now?
<1> nooby_god, you need to look at how your using it then
<24> LiteHedded yes
<13> ajax4: don't ask me how many times i installed slack, rh5 etc when i was getting started
<26> nooby_god: copied the OS over from one HD to the next, eventually replacing the rest of the PC.
<19> ok brb thanks! hopefully it comes back up
<12> well I primarily use gentoo, I'm only here because I need to know some ubuntu basics
<1> nooby_god, it and freebsd since 1994
<2> why can't ubuntu recognize the filesystem type? it's just a normal floppy
<28> fat
<12> can ubuntu be transparent? Like the user has no idea about config files and the such?
<27> Rambo3: there is no recovery
<31> Is x64 ubuntu generally less supported driver-wise than x86 ??
<26> issy: does it have a valid filesystem on it?
<13> Sh4d0: you installed dapper or breezy?
<7> wastrel: If you don't know what you are doing you might be inclined to, yes. But I think this subject is probably off-topic.
