Comments:
<0> Jowi, is there a GUI for confing grub?
<1> CoC?
<1> ah, code of conduct
<2> !coc
<3> well, coc is the Ubuntu Code of Conduct, which we ask all Ubuntu users to follow. You can find the Code of Conduct at http://www.ubuntu.com/community/conduct/
<1> thoreauputic: it's not as bad as yesterday when a guy was being an idiot and asking for help pirating a cd basically, and i told him to type a command on the CLI
<1> :D
<2> paradizelost: was that the guy with the *.mp3.rar file ?
<4> Larsson-Sweden: ummm... no idea :) to test without framebuffer without changing a thing; when grub starts, "edit" the like and add "vga=normal" after "root=/dev/..." entry and boot it. if it doesn't work you don't have to edit any configs and stuff
<1> no, GTA_VICECITY.ISO
<1> or something like that
<2> paradizelost: haha - I see
<4> s/like/line
<2> paradizelost: mount -o loop GTA_VICECITY.ISO
<5> what are the advantages to turning on the gramebuffer?
<1> yep
<5> framebuffer even
<1> !forkbomb
<3> somebody said forkbomb was http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fork_bomb
<6> Larsson-Sweden: mplayer -vo xv doesn't work?
<2> paradizelost: hmm that's only half of the command I guess
<7> dose anyone care to do a one to one in helping me with my wireless card ?
<1> !wireless
<3> I guess wireless is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCards if it does not work out of the box https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper windows drivers
<0> amphi, no, that video driver can't be found.
<6> Larsson-Sweden: that's very strange
<2> mumbles: it's generally bad form to ask for individual attention
<4> _jason: framebuffer make cool splash screens during startup. and on integrated graphic cards with shared memory you can set the memory consumption in the bios to your likings
<6> mumbles: just ask
<7> my laptop dose not find my dlink airepluss dwl-g650+
<5> Jowi: ah I see, because when i turn it on X refuses to start. So I was wondering what I was missing. Thanks
<1> mumbles: do an lspci - is your card in the list, if usb, try lsusb
<7> paradizelost - thats the thing. i cant find any mention of the card in there
<7> but if i do a ldiswrapper -l it says its found it
<1> is it USB, PCI, or PCMCIA
<1> mumbles: try in #ndiswrapper
<7> pcmcia
<1> is your PCMCIA slot working?
<4> mumbles: check here http://kmuto.jp/debian/hcl/ to see which driver you need to load
<7> it works under lwindows
<7> erm windows
<6> mumbles: that is not relevant ;)
<1> mumbles: you have to have your pcmcia slot working in LINUX before the system can see the card you put in
<2> amphi: still doing the Nepal thing? You used to hang out in #linux, right?
<6> thoreauputic: yeah - no, not there ATM - I'll be going in about a month, probably
<2> amphi: ah! OK I remembered correctly then :)
<6> indeed ;)
<7> paradizelost - it says that all the drivers are there and workign
<6> thoreauputic: you were .au IIRC?
<1> mumbles: show me the line
<2> amphi: yup. Still am :)
<1> !paste
<3> Please don't flood the channel! For best results use the pastebin at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ and tell people the URL
<6> mumbles: does 'sudo ifconfig -a' show the interface?
<7> one sec. just firing up xchat so i dont have to keep chaning screens
<8> amphi: every time you talk to "mumbles" I read your lines as really grumpy :) "amphi mumbles: I am really tired of this now..."
<9> what repositories are 'safe' to use after a default install? everything in the /etc/apt/sources.list ?
<9> or just a few of them
<9> and what about adding extra repositories ?
<1> !repositories
<3> To enable Universe and Multiverse see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/AddingRepositoriesHowto - Official sources.lists here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6047 (Breezy) or http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6666 (Dapper) see also !easysource
<1> !suppositories
<3> paradizelost: What? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
<10> i'm having a problem with my video, i recently installed ubuntu from the cd i just downloaded, then it told me to update, now when i reinstalled all the text is messed up and barely readable
<2> kingspawn: amphi is an old hand :) And a helpful one at that
<8> thoreauputic: hehe, yeah, just looks so funny :)
<9> there are a few comments in the /etc/apt/sources.list file almost warning against using some of the repositories
<1> lindsay: what video card you using?
<6> kingspawn: heh
<10> um, i'm not sure it's a laptop
<1> lindsay: are you using breezy or dapper?
<2> kingspawn: I'm the grumpy one
<9> i mean , can we trust the binaries served by those operating the repos?
<10> i'm not sure of that either
<8> [lastnight]: the official ones? indeed.
<8> thoreauputic: hehe
<10> breezy
<11> currently my NTFS partition has the boot flag. Can I change that and does it matter
<11> ?
<1> steveire: do you still want to boot to windows at all?
<9> kingspawn thanks, i hope you're right : )
<11> yep. sometimes
<12> anyone have a good website for buying ram?
<8> thoreauputic: *ouch*
<1> steveire: then i'd leave it as is
<13> thoreauputic: where are the aliases for bash kept? ~/.bash_profile ~/.bashrc or ~/.bashrc~
<1> gleesond: http://www.newegg.com
<2> gnomefreak: mine are in ~/.bashrc
<8> gnomefreak: files ending with a ~ are usually emacs backups
<11> what would happen if I moved the flag to my linux partition?
<13> ok ty
<10> all the text and lines are solid, they are more dashed and spread apart
<1> steveire: if the system is booing now, i'd leave it alone
<6> steveire: the 'bootable' flag?
<12> (gnome 2.14)++
<14> hi
<6> steveire: linux doesn't care about the bootable flag
<14> anyone know how i can get steam/counterstrike for ubuntu breezy
<15> dvd playback was working 2 days ago using totem gst now i get the message that i dont have the proper plugin to play DVDs what update did this and do i need another plugin? im using dapper
<11> There is a star under boot beside my NTFS partition, amphi. I don't know what it;s for.
<15> mplayer can play dvds fine
<16> hello
<1> ___gn0m3___: you could try cedega
<14> !cedega
<1> !tell ___gn0m3___ about cedega
<17> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13882
<14> is it free?
<11> what do you mean linux doesn't care about it?
<6> steveire: I'd leave that - windows used to feel sad without it, dunno if it still does
<2> steveire: I told you about an hour ago that it means windows is bootable
<1> ___gn0m3___: no
<14> crud
<16> i have reinstalled ubuntu this morning but synaptic do not find mplayer
<14> anything free?
<1> !mplayer
<3> mplayer is, like, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MplayerInstallHowto For compiling, see: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=31061
<11> I must have missed that thoreauputic.
<18> advise please, setting up the dhcp daemon i can just leave config file alone and edit /etc/default/dhcp and add the interface i want to right?
<19> I've got X working with TV out on my NV card but the TV output is black & white.. :(
<1> ___gn0m3___: could try wine, but it doesn't work so well for directx games
<6> ___gn0m3___: all those underscores are somewhat irritating
<2> steveire: you seem to be a terrible worrier ;-)
<4> defendguin: totem is a bit wierd atm. try mounting your dvd. then go to Movie-OpenLocation and type in /media/your_mountpoint to see if that works
<6> heheh
<15> ok Jowi
<11> I'd call myself thoro in preparation
<19> Any ideas>
<1> mpmc: usually a sign your not using a good cable
<6> steveire: "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" ;)
<14> what happened?
<17> paradizelost, - amphi http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13883 http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13882
<14> what u guys doing :]
<20> mpmc: outputting NTSC to a PAL TV or vice versa?
<10> paradizelost, all the lines and text are broken up and pixelated
<11> grand so... I'm still reading loads about partitions before I do anything though...
<21> somebody set up us the bomb!
<6> ___gn0m3___: your nick makes my display unaesthetic
<4> amphi: haha
<22> any advice on adding fonts to Xft?
<19> paradizelost: It was in colour when, I followed the standard clone version... (PAL-I).. I set it to PAL-I but It's black & white & I can see lines..
<1> mumbles: looks to me like its working for you
<6> Jowi: seriously, I'm readying the oubliette
