<0> i know the auto-upgrade may not work, it didn't work on a laptop but it work on my destop..the commnd line worked either way
<1> laozi: how the f doesn't it f'ing work???
<2> Maybe I have to do the command line deal.
<3> What software will create an ISO image from a CD so I can burn copies with gnomebaker?
<4> malegria, a test web server setup is similar to the real one? what exactly are you looking 4?
<5> yes!!!!!
<2> kbrooks, I need to have the upgraded version of update-manager but it it the package manager it says my update-manager is up to date (it isn't really).
<5> i got my dual screen to work! =]
<6> brett_: gnomebaker can already create images
<3> huh... wasn't obvious...
<3> must have missed it...
<6> brett_: you can also do a cat /dev/cdrom > cd.img
<7> laozi, have you tried sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade ???
<6> brett_: or dd if=/dev/cdrom of=~/image.img
<7> ugg enough ubuntu nvidia bollocks
<3> Huh... didn't think it was that easy.. the cat command is surprising...
<3> I found the option in gnomebaker just now... thanks!!
<8> lightstar: i just want to be able to preview my php-mysql-websites on my local machine. to do that i used xampp (www.apachefriends.org) under win.
<6> brett_: you're welcome :^)
<3> so you could do cat /dev/cdrom > myfile.iso
<9> Howdy all
<10> hi
<6> brett_: if /dev/cdrom is linked to your cdrom drive
<3> nick Brett_
<11> hello. :) i want to setup ubuntu. is there any review from the graphical instalation? I have 3 partitions but i just want to install ubuntu on the first one. i don't want it to mess with my other two. second question, my pc has 40 gb and i want to create /, /home and /swap. how much shoud I give to each (768 megs of ram)? third question, my d: and e: partitions are ntsc. to be able to work on them with ubuntu, to i need to change to fat32 ? thank you. sorr
<12> i, i know i have a p3 700 but how can i know if it's a pentium pro, a pentium-mmx , a pentium III/celeron/pentium-III xeon, or pentium M?
<8> lightstar: i think i have to be registered for private chat, right? i'm not
<8> lightstar: no i dont have php etc installed
<13> Maerksi, http://www.mrb***.org/linux/ubuntu/install/
<8> lightstar: can i do that right away?
<14> greetings
<4> malegria, yes you can
<14> my grub-reboot doesn't work! any idea why?
<11> Dreamglider thank you. can i ignore the fact that it is for ubuntu 5 ? is it all the same? :)
<13> Maerksi, sorry sorry
<15> Does the latest version of ubuntu install to a usb drive?
<16> o well, Im out, bye
<8> lightstar: so i just install the stuff i need and off it goes?
<17> Rainier: what actually is grub-reboot?
<13> i know there is screenshots for 6.06 and when installing 6.06 one uses gnome
<14> theine: hello, grub-reboot is a program to temporarily change your default startup OS
<18> Hey, I know this is gonna sound stupid, but bear with me
<14> theine: you use it with the entry number of the OS example "sudo grub-reboot 3" for memtest in my case
<18> Does 6.06 have drivers for a Microsoft USB optical mouse?
<8> lightstar: should i install apache2? i guess...
<11> if you cant help me on the 1st one, dont worry. how about the 2nd and 3rd questions? :)
<19> what does ubuntu have to connect to netmeeting?
<4> malegria, yeap that would be the 1st choice:)
<7> loxety, gnomemeeting?
<6> Sayz: mice use basic interfaces so i would say yes
<20> i just installed postfix but for some reason mailboxes for my user accounts were never generated...how do i create them manually?
<6> Sayz: but just try it out dude and see what happens
<8> lightstar: thanks. seems like it was too easy to think about it...
<17> Rainier: so you could also reboot normally and just select entry 3 in the grub menu?
<19> chongbook, cool!!
<21> Sayz: Since I'm using one with 6.06, I'd say yes... :)
<22> anyone know what repo the quin's packages are in ??
<23> Sayz: my usb optical mouse works fine, it's Dell branded though
<11> i'll repeat :) . on a 40 gb hd and 768 mb of ram, how much should i reserve for / , /home and /swap ?
<18> cherwin: Hey man, tried the options. They worked great! I used live acpi=off. Unfortunately, they broke my mouse...
<7> Maerksi, the installer will partition for you
<19> chongbook, any ideas to the apt package name?
<7> for a desktop machine you dont really need to split off stuff
<14> theine: yeah of course but it's comfortable to just say, "reboot with windows" and then to not have to worry about selecting windows :-)
<7> loxety, umm dpkg is locked right now so i cant search
<17> Rainier: True
<7> heh
<6> Sayz: you serious? acpi has broke your mouse? that's odd
<4> malegria, :)
<11> chongbook i don't think it will choose the proper amount for /, /home and /swap... will it? :\
<17> Rainier: The best solution is of course to not boot into Windows at all ;)
<18> cherwin: Yeah. I mean, acpi was what kept freezing the boot, so turning it off finally got me to the desktop, but by doing so, I couldn't use my mouse
<10> Rainier, sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst find Default should have a 0 next to it change number to correspond to the os you want to boot from
<7> Maerksi, it'll choose swap and / usually
<6> Sayz: acpi stands for Advanced Configuration and Power Interface so i do not think it'll break your mouse
<7> and maybe /boot
<24> hmm
<18> cherwin: Yeah, that's what I thought.
<25> does anyone here use enlightenment?
<24> ubotu, tell me about mp3
<25> !tell jmb about mp3
<18> cherwin: But when ACPI was on, the mouse worked while everything else just stopped loading
<11> chongbook what would you choose for /, /home and /swap on 40 gb ? i'm clueless
<6> Sayz: configure your xorg.conf to utilize your mouse and then restart X
<14> theine: haha yeah that would be great. unfortunately there are some things i still cant do in linux :'-(
<18> cherwin: Can't
<7> Maerksi, well my laptop has a 40G drive and i just let it set things up automatically
<26> how to i edit the bootloader / mbr
<6> Sayz: why not?
<7> but i'd go 5G for / 1.5G for swap and the rest for /home
<18> cherwin: I still haven't been able to install anything. I'm having issues booting at all
<7> if i had to make the choice
<14> someothernick: ok thanx
<11> can I get another members opinion please?
<11> :)
<18> cherwin: The live cd itself won't work right yet
<8> lightstar: you know if php5 includes 4? or do i have to install both?
<17> Rainier: Such as?
<19> any alternatives to gnomemeeting?
<10> ablyss, grub? sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
<27> the folks over in #kubuntu aren't helping -- what's the equivolent of ~/.gnomerc for KDE?
<28> I'm trying to set up XGL and Compiz on my Dell Inspiron 9300 with a Nvidia 6800 Go, and i'm getting m***ive graphical artifacts when I log into gnome. Any one who thinks they can help me with my problem?
<4> malegria, php5 and php4 are diff versions..you just have to install one..php5 would do nicely
<13> can anyone help me to set DMA on cdrom to ON ?
<14> theine: i enjoy playing counter-strike every now and then
<8> loxety: ekiga (?)
<18> cherwin: What really ****s is that all the versions of Ubuntu I've tried so far worked perfectly
<26> someothernick: i have another grub using my mbr.. this partition isn't listed// cant add to the other grub either
<8> lightstar: and 5 "knows" 4?
<17> Rainier: Sure, I can see that
<4> malegria, though some scripts might complain about certain features
<18> cherwin: Then I found out that 6.06 came out and sure enough, it didn't work
<8> lightstar: ok
<4> malegria, knows 4? as in can 5 run scripts written for 4? pretty much:)
<6> Sayz: bummer, i guess you have to just live with it if you are going to use the live cd, but if you just install ubuntu on you hard drive then you'll be able to fix that
<8> lightstar: yeah, thats waht i mean
<11> may i repeat my question? i would like to get another opinion please. how much would you reserve for /, /home and /swap on 40 gb ? i'm clueless
<26> someothernick: another question.. how can i change my bootdisk? right now it doesn't if have dapper as default but xubuntu
<11> i have 768 mb of ram
<29> hi guys, anyone get the latest gnomad2 working on dapper?
<10> ablyss, maybe you could reinstall grub to mbr from install disk
<18> cherwin: Yeah, and plus, I would dool-boot with Ubuntu if I could really, but I can't leave Windows and my hard drive is WAY TOO SMALL
<26> someothernick: i'd rather have my bootdisk fixed firest
<10> ablyss, you want it to boot to another os?
<6> Sayz: what's holding you back to completely switch over to ubuntu?
<26> someothernick: no i want it to be corrected.. it defaults to the wrong OS
<18> cherwin: Office and people in my house that can only use Windows:D
<25> Sayz, you can still use windows, just do it inside ubuntu
<30> !sudo
<31> methinks sudo is a command that will let users run commands as root. Look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo for all information.
<11> !gedit
<31> methinks gedit is a text editor for GNOME.
<32> how can i see my offline buddies on gaim yahoo messenger???
<25> Sayz, its it a laptop?
<32> i only see online people
<10> ablyss, oh
<18> cherwin: What, through WINE? My hard drive is 10 gigs, I can barely fit on it
<26> someothernick: thanks for tips.. i will do more research on it later
<33> Sayz: tell your people that microsoft is not god
<4> harisund, select show offline buddies
<10> ablyss, sorry i couldn't be more help
<11> no answers? :(
<6> Sayz: yeah too bad, i've a single user laptop with an 80 gig hard drive...
<34> ablyss grub ?
<33> Sayz: one thing that most people resist is learning
<4> harry, select show offline buddies
<33> force them to learn
