<0> !direct connect
<1> b08y: Not a clue. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
<2> SyL: yeouch, it really doesn't do it in a nice way, and gives virtually no explanation for some things. If you want to get Xgl/Compiz running I recommend checkin gthe respective entry on the FAQ
<3> iiiears: http://mirror.cs.umn.edu/ubuntu-releases/6.06/MD5SUMS np, I miss stuff like that all the time too
<4> ubotu tell b08y about abuse
<5> ok, when you reboot you can choose to reboot another OS but it doesn't work
<6> !manners
<1> Please respect and don't abuse the people that are trying to help you. That is not productive. We are all unpaid volunteers, giving up our spare time. For more info, ask me about !coc
<5> what could be wrong?
<7> So theres no way to repair an install via the ubuntu cd? without loosing all my data and such :/
<2> JakeDude: repair what exactly?
<6> JakeDude: How do you mean?
<4> Rainier, do a google search on "chain loading"
<0> does ony one know, about an DC Client 4 Ubuntu?
<8> apokryphos: after I installed the XGL packages that it wanted be to install X took a crap and I've been in text mode every since. I will check out the FAQ
<9> roostishaw: http://pastebin.com/707642 you cannot say that you read the README cause you really didn't, you can at least be honest with me
<5> ok thanx
<4> yw
<2> SyL: I recommend just trying to undo whatever it recommends, really.
<10> ? whats the best way to partition ubuntu dapper drake 6.06
<11> cherwin, ok. sorry, but do you think i would lie to you when im trying to get help? cmon man... :D
<12> night all
<8> apokryphos: haha. reinstall number 2 for today. I couldn't undo it if I tried. =)
<4> THe best way is to use a seperate boot drive
<13> _jason2, thanks
<7> cafuego: well.. my install seems to be damaged. It worked and now its having trouble booting.. I figured there may be a repair feature that checks system files and/or boot sequences and such :S
<2> SyL: dang.. you really should never have to do a reinstall.
<9> roostishaw: np, but did you see it? cd to the unix dir and then 'make -f Makefile.gtk'
<14> that was strange
<5> sorry I didn't explain well
<4> apokryphos why did you just go op
<6> JakeDude: No, your best bet is to boot on rescue mode and note *where* the boot fails. Then you can use the cd to log in to the install and fix the problem.
<5> I CAN start windows manually when i restart
<10> i only have 1..120 gig drive with 50 gig for linux
<8> apokryphos: yeah, I agree. but at this point I'm thinking it would just be faster. I just won't wipe my home directories
<2> __mikem: I didn't, I deoped.
<4> oh
<14> my laptops fan would not come on, I load kororaa's livecd and then load ubuntu back up and the fan is on
<15> guys I'm not so sure if I need mysql-common package
<5> but when you restart kubuntu you can choose windows directly so it does it automatically
<15> how do I find out what other programs are depending on it?
<2> SyL: yes, having a seperate /home helps
<6> sorush20: Just sue syanptic or apt-get. it will be installed if it's needed.
<5> thats the part that doesn't work
<16> hey can anyone point me in the right direction
<6> lw4xl: try west
<16> to a site for customizing xubuntu
<2> sorush20: use rdepends with apt
<6> oh :-)
<17> hi
<4> ITs obviously using the windows boot loader rather than grub by sdefault, fixing this varies based on what bios you are using
<6> !xubuntu
<1> somebody said xubuntu was Ubuntu using Xfce instead of Gnome for the desktop. Details here: https://www.xubuntu.org
<16> for tweaking it
<17> how do I compile package from source?? with optimization such as (-march=athlon-xp)
<6> lw4xl: Have a google for xfce themes... that should turn up some stuff.
<18> why does network monitor not show wlan0 ?
<4> www.xfce-look.org
<10> is this a good lay out for partitions.. / ... /swap ... /home
<6> vinboy: Step one is to realise there is no point.
<16> thanx
<18> i only see lo and eth0
<6> loanwolf: Works fine for all my machines.
<8> apokryphos: what was the URL for the FAQ? I'm not seeing the XGL area (but I am using links so that could be part of the problem)
<10> ok
<6> loanwolf: 6GB /, 1GB swap, rest /home
<2> SyL: better to troubleshoot your current problem first I think.
<11> cherwin, its compiling now, but it says every few lines gtk-config: command not found
<11> cherwin, is that normal?
<4> On a gnome system that shouldn't be happening
<11> cherwin, nvm, i got the error: make: *** [sshzlib.o] Error 1
<2> SyL: what do you get when gdm's dead (sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop) and then you startx as user?
<10> ok..that all sounds good
<5> does anyone know how to make the restart-windows function work?
<19> Anyone know how I can unistall Ubuntu?
<9> roostishaw: you don't have all the gtk packages installed
<4> zxc333 why in gods name would you want to do that
<5> you know when you select windows in the restart menu and its supposed to start automatically?
<8> apokryphos: willing to take a crack at it?
<20> zxc333, reinstall windows :P
<21> zxc333: Format the partition(s) it's on
<2> SyL: sure, try the above.
<4> Rainier, yes
<19> Will formatting the partitions get rid of Grub?
<11> cherwin, how do i install all of them?
<4> zxc333 if you get rid of the boot partition then yes
<8> apokryphos: stand by
<5> __mikem: could you give me a hint please? cause i dont know where to start
<5> __mikem: do you need grub2 maybe?
<19> mikem: is the boot partition /
<9> roostishaw: that's for you to find out, i'm a slackware user. maybe 'apt-cache search gtk' will show you the gtk packages
<4> zxc333 no thats your root filesystem
<22> My cd won't do anything after the cursor and background appear on screen
<4> Rainier the problem is, how to do it depends on what bios you are using
<22> It won't boot to the actual desktop, just to the status box
<10> zxc333: why you want to uninstall ubuntu
<21> So why are we helping zxc333?
<21> Seriously, if he's not going to use linux then why does he expect help from us
<22> The md5sum is fine, though
<2> stevekl: because it's his/her choice :)
<23> uninstalling linux on a machine hardly entails that someone is not going to use linux
<2> stevekl: because the question is ubuntu-related, still.
<21> apokryphos: Deserving our help isn't his choice
<4> stevekl aggreed
<19> mikem: I've only made partitions for /, /home and /swap... which ones the boot partitions
<8> wubrgamer: it's NFS, so there is no "URL" that you can type in a webbrowser
<13> man, there is some other type of gnu java
<24> zxc333, your root partition has /boot in it :)
<25> stevekl: its still ubuntu support
<19> Don't get me wrong, I love Ubuntu but it's impossible to set up with my winmodem
<4> zxc333 if you didn't create a /boot partition, it would be imposible to boot
<26> hey guys, how do i mount an NFS share that is physically on my dekstop, on my laptop ?
<3> zxc333: have you been to the wiki page on winmodems? I just setup a conexant one and it wasn't too bad
<11> cherwin, there's like... a thousand of them...
<8> apokryphos: "failed to load module "glx", "failed to load module nvidia", "Fatal server error: no screens found"
<27> zxc333, if you didn't specify a /boot partition, it creates one automatically as root
<2> SyL: do you have an nvidia card?
<19> yeah I've done about 6 formats , 2 kernal compilings and spent more than a week trying to do it...it's mainly driver side problems
<25> ubotu tell wubrgamer -about nfs
<19> dou123: thanks, that's what I did
<4> Instalation was as smooth as could be for me. Part of the reason why ubuntu remains my distro of choice
<5> __mikem: hmm ok so its complicated i guess, is there any how-to maybe that explains the process?
<8> apokryphos: yeah, and it was all working before I tried the XGL stuff
<19> I'll be back to Ubuntu as soon as I have the money to invest in a decent modem :c)
<2> SyL: anyhow, execute this command first: sudo mv /etc/gdm/gdm.conf-custom-backup /etc/gdm/gdm.conf-custom && sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf_backup /etc/X11/xorg.conf
<28> dose 6.06 use differant mpeg2 codecs
<9> roostishaw: i'm sorry that you cannot find the correct packages but debian/ubuntu way's of installing things isn't my terrain. do an extensive google search to find out what went wrong and what you have to install. that way you'll learn much much more instead of beeing spoon-fed
<23> you can get a modem for $5 at any salvation army or whatever
<23> all those old compies have modems
<4> Rainier, yes there is, but you are going to need to ask one of the ops in the room to point you in the right dirrection. I simply don't know the urls for the pages
<11> cherwin, ok... no thanks to you, it was in the repos...
<13> :)
<13> thanks again
<15> apokryphos: I can't use rdepends how?
<9> roostishaw: is putty in the repos?
<25> Rainier: what are you looking for?
<5> __mikem: ok thanx
<4> any time, and sorry
<22> Could someone help me out?
<8> apokryphos: done
<22> My cd isn't working right
<2> sorush20: heh, I was thinking in rpm mode. You want apt-cache whatdepends <package>
<5> gnomefreak: hello, I need to configure grub i guess so it can automatically start windows when i choose it in the restart menu
<2> SyL: ok, try startx again now
<2> SyL: as user
<25> ubotu tell Rainier -about grub
<5> thanx guys
<8> apokryphos: same complaint.
<2> SyL: is nvidia-glx installed?
<4> In all fairness, I really didn't understand what rainier was asking
<8> apokryphos: I'm guessing the packages I installed changed some stuff as well as installing stuff...
