<0> cdubya, thats fine, take your time
<1> cause i just did, and it didnt give the error
<2> Skwid: in the grub shell, there is no sudo
<2> Skwid: wtf?
<1> amphi: but i launched 'sudo grub'
<1> amphi: uh ? i thought we were interested in the first _primary_ partition
<1> im confused now :)
<2> Skwid: what are you doing? you need to do this in the grub shell at boot time
<1> amphi: haha
<2> Skwid: you don't have one
<1> amphi: i was using a terminal
<1> amphi: my linux partitions are primary
<3> I'm getting an error message that says "Failed to start the X server(your graphical interface). It is likely that it is not set up correctly."
<3> then it give me the optin to view the X server output to diagnose the problem
<1> amphi: sorry :)
<3> anybody know wats goin on?
<2> Skwid: no worries ;)
<4> shasbot, what I would do is copy the /etc/network/interfaces file to your home dir......then you can mv the real interfaces file to interfaces.old and replace it with the one that works...
<2> Skwid: that 'rootnoverify (hd0,4) chainloader +1 boot' stuff yous should do in the grub shell, after rebooting, *before* lunix boots
<0> ok, i shall give this a go
<1> amphi: yeah, i just figured that out
<3> has anybody ever seen that error message before at startup after installation
<3> ?
<5> guest -- you can try this if youve got a shell
<5> sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver xorg
<1> alright, amphi ill be back
<1> i hooe :)
<1> hope
<5> it might be having issues figuring out your video card
<3> really, do u know how to fix that?
<5> sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver xorg
<5> but youll need a command line shell
<2> Guest_790: you might want to look at linux-laptop.net and/or tuxmobil.org to see if that laptop has any 'special needs'
<4> shasbot, have any luck?
<5> im sorry the command is sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
<5> are you trying this from a live cd or an install?
<6> i'm having trouble getting my sound card to work
<6> the output works but I am unable to record
<6> using the ubuntu dapper sound recorder application
<0> cdubya, well i can connect to the internet now, but the same error message comes up when i log on "cannot connect to ubuntu, may cause problems in gnome, try adding address to etc/hosts" and i still can't run the networking configuration tool
<7> hi all
<0> also when i run sudo, i get the error of "unable to look up ubuntu via gethostbyname()"
<7> im having problems installing gtkpod any advice im totally a newbie with one week using ubuntu and really happy
<4> shasbot, when you boot the system, and you see the output "Setting up ALSA card 0", right after that, you should see a "Configuring Network interfaces". Once you see that, hit Ctrl-C and kill the process.....then let it boot normally, and see if you can login and then run the networking tool.
<7> i try apt-cache add gtkpod
<0> cdubya, ill go try that
<8> Is it possible to get a Ubuntu cloak for freenode?
<9> magic mushrooms
<9> **** IM OFF MY HEAD

<9> im sure im having more
<3> does anybody know a website where i can download debian
<9> the debian one?
<3> ubuntu doesnt work with my video

<9> debian.com??
<9> der...
<3> oh lol
<10> _damian-: language
<8> debian is a bit outdated
<8> but stable
<9> hobbsee sorry
<3> wat do u guys recomend
<9> although deb ian has a much better apt source list
<9> Guest_790 try dsl
<8> what are you trying to accomplish?
<3> just a home computer
<3> multimedia
<9> Guest_790 DSL
<8> then Ubuntu will work
<9> damn small linux
<10> primoturbo: yeah, it is. there's ones with membership, and there are unaffiliated ones from freenode
<2> Guest_790: what is your video card?
<3> its a radeon
<2> Guest_790: what radeon?
<8> ati ****s, I know I have a 9700 Pro
<8> ATI cards have very **** driver support
<2> Guest_790: lspci will tell you if you're not sure
<8> Guest which radeon do you have?
<8> do you want to play 3d games?
<2> primoturbo: mine is supported by the xorg driver well enough
<3> im not too sure, but its a 3d acclerator
<8> can u check in your options?
<2> Guest_790: pfft - do lspci and paste the _one_ relevant line of output in here
<3> yea, im a newb, so can u tell me how to do that
<8> display properties > settings > advanced and then adapter tab
<2> Guest_790: do lspci in a term
<11> Is there a way for me to like... mount a remote ftp site, somewhere?
<2> Guest_790: or the slow way ;)
<8> if you can't use windows, it will be even harder to use Linux
<2> woo: ISTR ftpfs being in the kernel
<11> amphi: Huh?
<2> woo: that's what you're talkinga about, no?
<11> amphi: ISTR?
<8> Guest_790 have you tried Linux before?
<8> How long have you been using a computer?
<3> it says VGA compatible controller: ATI technologies inco: unknown device 5a62
<2> 'I seem to recall' - do none of you people have wtf(6) installed?
<3> no, im really good with windows
<3> but first trime with linux
<8> doesnt sound like you have drivers installed for windows
<2> Guest_790: what are you in now?
<11> amphi: How would I use ftpfs?
<3> its a black screen where i login
<0> cdubya, that didn't work, i think the problem now is with sudo, it seems that anything that requires root is not working
<3> it failed to startup because of my video card
<8> If you are good with windows are you able to install windows xp on a unpartioned hard-drive?
<3> yes
<8> how do u not know what video card you have then?
<12> e ai pessoal
<12> qual eh a versao mais nova
<12> ops
<3> should i go into system bios?
<13> does anyone know which repository I can get sun-j2sdk or sun-j2re from?
<2> woo: dunno, never tried; IIRC it's a plan 9 -ism that's come into linux; basically, it's a server that presents a remote site as part of your file system, so you use your normal shell tools to manipulate the files
<14> Hey everybody, I installed Kaffeine 0.8.1 today, but now the player freezes whenever I try to play an audio CD with it - I don't get any error messages and the disc never plays. Any ideas?
<4> shasbot, bummer.
<13> Does anyone use eclipse with ant to compile java ?
<11> amphi: ah
<8> it's not needed for Linux
<4> shasbot, so you can't do anything with sudo at all?
<8> ati means you can use fglrx or ati driver
<8> but I would not expect good 3d performance
<14> I'm using the debs from http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=154452
<2> Guest_790: how old is this card?
<0> cdubya, correct, the error message i get upon logging in says it cant connect the internet ubuntu or something like that, and it reccomends adding ubuntu to etc/hosts
<3> its a new laptop
<3> got it for christmas
<8> for example I get 125 fps (cap) in Windows XP playing Quake3 at highest settings 1024x768, I get about 90 playing under ubuntu and latest fglrx
<2> woo: was that the sort of thing you're looking for?
<11> amphi: Hehe yeah, but I don't know how to use it :-/
<15> Yes, fglrx is a joke.
<0> cdubya, ubuntu is also my hostname so that may be what it is refering to
<16> heh
<16> cafuego you can say that again
<15> Yes, fglrx is a joke.
<8> Guest_790 so you have burned Ubuntu LiveCD?
<17> send ati a mail what you think about their linux drivers maybe with enough mails they'll start doing something.
<18> fala
<3> yes
<3> and the install cd
<2> woo: http://ftpfs.sourceforge.net/home.html
<16> slackern: good idea
<4> shasbot, are you still booted to the LiveCD?
<19> anyone I cant remember how to perform a low level format, can someone refresh my cobwebs please?
<16> slackern: i think i will do that right now
<17> thats what i did atleast.
<8> I'll just not buy ATI next time, that's for sure
<0> cdubya, no, i am on my install
<18> oi karina
