Comments:

<0> oi karina
<1> slackern: they tend to reply with: "the drivers are provided as is" though
<2> hey
<3> spikeb, haha indeed they do :)
<4> woo: already obsolete ;)
<2> does annyone here use spoon proxy ?
<1> i avoid ati where possible primoturbo:)
<5> Guest explain pls what happens when u start up the LiveCD?
<6> shasbot.....k.
<5> which version did u burn 5.10 or testing Dapper 6.06?
<5> cause I have issues with Dapper 6.06 livecd not booting
<7> cdubya, for the record, /etc/hosts only has one line in it: "127.0.0.1 localhost"
<6> shasbot, k
<4> woo: looks like LUFS is the way to go
<8> amphi: I almost got it working



<6> shasbot, yeah, I've only got that one as well, along with several ipv6 lines
<8> amphi: But by <file_system>://[<user>[:<p***>]@][<host>][:<port>][/<remote_root>] <mountpoint> [OPTIONS]
<4> woo: cool, I never tried it
<8> amphi: What do they mean file system?
<4> woo: ftp I would presume
<4> woo: in your case
<9> Can anyone help trying to bring an md0 RAID0 device with 2 SATA HDs ?
<8> amphi: It said unsupported file system
<4> woo: perhaps you need to resort to TFM ;)
<10> where do I start looking to remotely access my headless Ubuntu machine?
<3> dibblego, ssh or vnc ?
<7> cdubya, is there anywhere i am supposed to specify the router address?
<10> slackern: I'm hoping for a display of some kind
<6> shasbot, hang on....
<10> I have a monitor on it at the moment - but I'm going to take it off
<3> dibblego, System->Preferences->Remote Desktop
<6> shasbot, sorry, no, not if your ath0 is setup for DHCP
<3> dibblego, then use a vnc client like tightvnc to access it.
<11> hi
<11> hi everybody
<4> woo: you used lufsmount with suitable args?
<12> 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? I'm using the debs from http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=154452
<7> cdubya, it looks like it is: (in etc/network/interfaces):"iface ath0 inet dhcp
<7> wireless-essid linksys
<7> auto ath0
<7> "
<13> hi all
<3> dibblego, you might want to uncheck "ask you for permission" since you can't click it when running headless.
<10> right, I've done that
<14> is there some kind of ipconfig command for ubuntu?
<3> Ryan-, ifconfig
<14> hah thanks
<15> anyone I cant remember how to perform a low level format, can someone refresh my cobwebs please?
<4> woo: or here's an example from TFM: mount -t lufs none /mnt/lufs -o nosuid,fs=ftpfs,host=ftp.sourceforge.net,username=mali,p***word=myp***,ftpactive
<16> Arrick, no need for low level format
<4> Arrick: mkfs -t $FILE_SYSTEM_TYPE /dev/whatever
<10> cool that seems to work, thanks
<3> dibblego, your welcome.
<6> shasbot, so can or can't you run the network helper?
<17> anyone here play with encrypted filesystems at all? I've had a p***ing interest in setting one up, but haven't really done any indepth research.
<18> amphi: wow ... some really funky stuff
<7> cdubya, i can run network tools, but i can't run the networking under system>administration
<19> Hi. I have ubuntu and windows installed on the same hd. I booted into windows and then restarted to boot into ubuntu. I logged in to my ubuntu account and it wasn't connecting to the internet. I restarted, thinking it would fix it, and it did, but after I booted my monitor gave an error "OUT OF RANGE"... I reinstalled ubuntu not knowing what to do about it, and it still is doing the same thing.
<4> woo: I just tried sshfs on localhost, seems to work ok, FWIW
<4> Skwid: ?
<20> lufis: ctrl-alt-F1 should get you to a text login..
<21> lufis: if you get an Out of Range, try pressing Crtl-Alt-F1, which should get you to a console. You can fix xorg from there
<15> amphi, dli I need a low level format, and Im in woidows and they wont help me out
<4> bomin: I've done encrypted loopback fs (fs-in-a-file)
<18> amphi: the command line seemed to work, but apparently my windows/system32 folder disapeared
<4> Skwid: good riddance, I say ;)
<19> Bbrazil, zcat: I don't think it's an xorg problem. It works until I log in using the gui... then out of range. It sounds like an xorg config error, I know, but I deleted the ubuntu partition and reinstalled, so all of the config files were erased. Wtf? :(
<21> Arrick: with modern drives, I doubt you want a low level format. What are you trying to do?
<4> Arrick: modern disks shouldn't be low-level formatted by $USER AFAIK
<18> amphi: sounds like a sign to get rid of windows for good heh :)
<15> bbrazil, its ancient, and I am trying to put it back to use n a 98 system
<21> lufis: it probably put back exactly the same config files
<15> part of my studio
<19> Bbrazil? How? the disk was erased
<3> Arrick, Usually the manufacturers of the drives provides tools to do lowlevel formats, you should have a look at that.
<16> Arrick, sorry, I don't know windows



<4> dli: it's not really a windows issue
<18> amphi: i think i'm going to format it
<21> Arrick: dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/hda bs=1024 count=1 <-- run this and then pop in the 98 CD (warning: this command is dangerous)
<4> Skwid: better not to muck about with partitions without a backup ;)
<21> Arrick: ssuming you want only 98
<6> shasbot, so what are you running then when you say network tools
<20> Well, I would still reconfigure xorg so there are no modes it can use that are out of range..
<17> amphi: yeah it seems like the filesystem in a file is the way to go, easy to backup and such
<15> yeah
<19> Zcat, ok. I'll try :(
<18> amphi: i have backups :)
<18> amphi: it's just a pain to reformat ..
<21> Arrick: if there's no partition table, 98se will ask to create one
<18> amphi: is windows going to screw my ubuntu and grub if i reinstall 6
<20> log in text mode, then sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
<22> ok.....total Kubuntu question I know......when using adept or apt and trying to install wine or winesetuptk they want to uninstall each other if the other is present......any clues why?
<21> OpenSorce: probably a Confilcts in one of the packages
<15> hey bbrazil bad command
<4> bomin: yeah; you might find this of use: http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/81
<21> Arrick: exact error?
<15> bad command or file name,
<4> Skwid: it'll obliterate grub, but it's easy enough to boot off a cd and reinstall grub
<7> cdubya, applications>system tools>network tools
<21> Arrick: you typed 'dd' as teh command?
<23> hi how do i remove the update notification thingy in the top right corner of the screen for users that are not sudoers? since they cant do nothin about it anyway
<18> amphi: darn
<15> yeah, what was I supposed to do?
<7> cdubya, i cant seem to be able to fix anything from there though
<18> amphi: ok
<4> Skwid: not the config, just what's in the mbr
<22> bbrazil: yeah gotta be, just want newbs to be able to install both and use winesetup to configure wine with getting into that whole dirty console thing :-P
<4> Arrick: ?
<18> amphi: yeah
<15> do me a favor, type only what i am supposed to type right quick
<24> any news on dapper?
<25> lrojas, its pretty and evern more pretty with xgl
<21> Arrick: dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/hda bs=1024 count=1 (Warning: dangerous command)
<4> OpenSorce: 'dirty console thing'???
<26> it's coming out June 6th (or thereabouts), right?
<27> SmittyINSIDE: 1, june 1.
<25> sometime in june
<4> bbrazil: how will that benefit him?
<7> cdubya, i was looking around online and i found a suggestion to restart in recovery mode, and then set etc/hosts to
<7> 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost <yourhostname>
<26> oh right on
<15> hey bbrazil is that a unix style command, the slashes look backwards for windows
<21> Arrick: oh, you're on windows?
<15> no, I am on nothing at the moment
<4> Arrick: what are you trying to do?
<22> amphi: hehe......I'm testing Kubuntu for use for windows users.....real newbs
<15> no os
<24> was just wondering if we would be able to install fluxbox to replace gnome
<21> amphi: if the partitions are trashed, the 98 install cd will created from scratch in my experiance
<27> lrojas: you don't have to replace gnome, they can coexist. but yeah you can.
<15> trying to put an os on this &*^% machine so I can get dignostics on it
<25> lrojas, you can install anything
<17> amphi: this looks pretty straight forward, I'll have to try it out. I was thinking about storing my mail archives (accessed via Mutt) on an encrypted filesystem.. writing a wrapper script to mount the fs, get my mail, unmount
<24> dfgas, what is xgl ?
<6> shasbot, you might try doing a sudo hostname whatever_hostname_you_want_to_use when you reboot to recovery mode.
<4> bbrazil: does the installer not run fdisk? it's been a while ;)
<6> then check it with hostname
<23> no way to remove update notification for non admin users?
<7> cdubya, ok
<10> slackern: when I reboot the machine, the VNC server has not started - can it be started automatically?
<15> I've tried 5 hard drives and the os gets to the point "starting windows now" with 98 xp 2000 and blue screens
<21> amphi: the 98 cd runs fdisk depending on whether there are already partitions
<17> amphi: but as soon as you talk about automating something, you place your p***word at risk.. so prob not a good idea
<21> Arrick: what are you currently running on this system?
<28> Hey will 6.06 have Xgl?
<15> ther is no os on it
<15> nothing
<15> bare partition
<4> bomin: if the mail wasn't sent encrypted, everyone's read it already ;)
<3> dibblego, oh it isn't started? hmm i'll have to look into that.
