<0> kde has a few apps for translating video file formats
<1> Hobbsee: ahh okay
<1> Hobbsee: it's been nighttime here, now four in the morning
<2> bleh, come to think of it I really don't have the energy for command line programs right now. is there a reasonably simple gui solution?
<0> Mwafrica: what doesnt display text
<3> Linux_galore: I need another browser... or installing a new Firefox
<4> spikeb: ah yep
<1> seamonkey works well, i hear.
<0> Mwafrica: goto the mozilla home page and download the firefox tar.gz file
<5> blasph: what are you using ? dapper or breezy?
<6> hi all. How to start the graphical installation from the 6.06-CD without booting into the live system first?
<2> crazy_penguin: breezy.
<1> Madkiss: don't believe that's possible
<6> That's excellent
<5> then you will find them in the repositories
<6> spikeb: So of what use is this CD for me with my PowerBook from Oct 2005?



<7> blasph, "To convert input.avi to the MPEG4 codec with MPEG3 audio encoding" -- is this what you want?
<5> i saw them a few days ago when i installed something
<1> Madkiss: depending on how well it's supported, it could be very useful or useless
<3> Linux_galore: I cant go to any page... since i cant see a thing from my browser....
<6> spikeb: It just died while loading into the live system.
<1> heh
<2> hastesaver: I think I need MPEG 1 or 2... I need this to make a video CD in K3b
<6> That's not funny at all.
<1> Madkiss: then possibly useless
<0> Mwafrica: you may want to delete/rename the /home/username/.mozilla/ directory then run firefox again
<6> For god's sake why does Ubuntu just not provide a simple, standard installation CD?
<7> blasph, oh, then just use the GUIs, should be easier to figure out :)
<8> Madkiss: they do
<6> chamo: With the graphical installer?
<1> Madkiss: first off, they do. second off, if the livecd failed, you're going to have problems.
<2> hastesaver: so what package do I need?
<3> linux_galore: What do u mean run again? like opening the firefox again?
<8> ya
<9> the installer does a great job despite not being graphical
<0> Mwafrica: ok raname the /home/username/./mozilla directory /home/username/./mozilla-old
<7> blasph, the ones crazy_penguin said (gtranscode, avidemux)
<0> rename*
<9> it only asks what, 10 questions, which you can generally just accept the defaults for
<3> ok
<0> Mwafrica: then try running firefox again
<2> hastesaver: both or just whichever?
<6> Oh lord, it killed a kitten.
<7> blasph, granscode should be enough

<0> Mwafrica: so your file manager wont show it by default
<3> how how do i see it?
<3> seen 5it
<2> oh, just remembered I wanted to ask a newbish question: how come directories with names that start with a period aren't displayed in nautilus?
<10> hello all
<1> blasph: they're hidden directories. by default, they aren't shown, although nautilus can be configured to show them
<0> Mwafrica: right click "show hidden files"
<11> the same reason directories with +H aren't shown in windows?
<3> Linux_galore: yes..... i have seen and renamed... but when i run Mozilla from the bar it... brongs the same problem.....
<0> Mwafrica: mozilla isnt firefox
<0> Mwafrica: run firefox
<3> mine is Mozilla Firefox... from gthe title bar
<12> my monitor lists preset resolution 1280x1024 pixels @ 135 MHz what does the 135MHz stand for? is that my refresh rate?
<0> Mwafrica: run epiphany
<2> spikeb: so why are directories like .xMule hidden?
<13> i wanted to know what features would be avaiable in dapper drake, well i found it: http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/dapperbeta
<3> Linux_galore: how do i do that... im completely new?
<1> blasph: mostly to keep directories looking clean :)
<10> how can you change the margins in open office writer program?
<2> spikeb: oic. :)

<3> linux_garole: Command not found...



<14> if i'm listening to music, i need to stop the music and restart firefox to hear any sound..
<1> cyne: it's bright, but yes, it does look nice.
<0> Mwafrica: run nautilus then
<14> which is really annoying
<15> Anyone?

<17> dekela, run it again?
<7> jack1, In gtkpod, Edit->Preferences, the General tab, the first entry is for "iPod Mount Point" -- put /media/ipod there.

<13> xwing: http://images.google.com.au/images?as_q=wallpapers&svnum=10&hl=en&btnG=Google+Search&as_epq=&as_oq=&as_eq=&imgsz=xxlarge&as_filetype=&imgc=&as_sitesearch=&safe=off
<18> dekela just try again i think, and it will continue or report an error
<15> So if it failed it will continue where it was left of
<19> cyne: thanks
<15> Good thank you people
<20> hastesaver i am currently changing /fstab to /mnt/ipod
<7> jack1, oh.. my /usr/share/gtkpod/scripts/sync-kaddressbook.sh uses IPOD_MOUNT=/media/ipod
<22> what the heck unzips .7z?
<15> BTW: I spotted a good howto for dapper: http://users.piuha.net/martti/comp/ubuntu/install.html
<20> hastesaver then thats not the reason the it was already right; it says it syncs but in fact it doesnt
<23> hey all, i can't seem up install kubuntu-desktop using apt-get, i get an error
<24> is there some sort of post-installation checklist that i can follow to get things like commonly used codecs and players working?
<23> even using sudo
<7> jack1, you have to first unmount it and eject it before you see the effect, right?
<17> What's the error you're getting, claymore666?
<20> hastesaver '/usr/local/share/gtkpod/scripts/sync-kaddressbook.sh' returned the following output:
<20> Syncing iPod ... [Contacts] done!
<23> where can i paste it?
<23> it's about 3 lines long
<25> quelle webcam ?
<17> Three lines is alright in here, I think
<23> claymore666@lappy:~$ sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
<20> well yes but it doesnt
<23> E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
<23> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
<26> rob: 7zip one of the best compressors
<22> madmike, yeah so I see
<17> claymore666, are you running another instance of apt-get? Or synaptic?
<23> i was, i closed it
<20> hey it works hastesaver /mnt/ipod
<23> im currently updating everything on my system though
<7> jack1, great, whatever works! :)
<23> cause i couldnt get kubuntu to work
<17> When that's finished, then you should be able to download kubuntu-desktop
<23> i'll cancel it for now
<25> cherche webcam compatible sur linux
<23> since you're helping :)
<26> rob: there seems to be no official ubuntu package, but there certainly are linux binaries
<20> hastesaver the mountpoint cool!
<21> can someone teach me how to view the services.
<22> madmike, there is, p7zip
<23> so what do i do now... no apt get or any add applications are open
<22> I think anyway :)
<12> where in xorg.conf can i set how many dots per inch my monitor displays?
<26> rob: that's just waht I wanted to say
<17> claymore666, try sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop, again
<23> ok
<23> woo, working now
<23> odd :/
<23> thankyou
<26> rob: I've heard ubuntu is even considering using it for their deb-packages... but 7z seem to eat a lot of cpu... to much for older computers
<17> claymore666, you can't use two instances of apt-get at the same time - that includes synaptic
<23> ahh, ok
<23> so maybe when that updates thing is showing
<23> i can't use it
<22> madmike, yeah it seems to from what I just saw (a 650mb) zip file
<22> its still extracting
<17> If you where installing updates, that's just the same
