<0> Matthewv: thx - i'll go fishing!
<1> Hey bliss_
<2> just installed fluxbox with aptitude but now do i need to install gdm?
<3> i was writing a paper in open office, which i had been consistently saving...and i looked to scroll up a few pages, and suddenly the rest of the pages are gone..oo didnt crash or anything, what happened??
<4> polpak same as the other
<5> bliss_, don't have to, you can use startx :)
<1> Shoukdnt gdm be installed with Ubunutu anyway
<2> ARKDeathKnight: hi
<6> [Ex0r]: odd. reboot off the HD and try to set the ip manually to the 100 address
<1> lol@ARK
<4> actually, I think the resolv.conf is different for the livecd
<2> Matthew; ok but i has a server running before with no x
<5> bliss_, did installing fluxbox also install x with it?
<4> this one says search hsd1.comcast.net, and nameserver 192.168.0.2
<4> do you remember what i said the other one looked like ?
<7> has anyone had a problem where the terminal doesnt display anything?



<2> Matthew: i think so but does fluxbox need to confiured before starting X?
<6> <4> 192.168.0.1 and hlsd1.comcast.net
<6> [Ex0r]: what about netstat -r ?
<8> [Ex0r], you still trying/
<4> shows the same as the install
<9> File "blendclient.py", line 84, in ?
<9> destrib1() # Execute Blendistrib1 (Add some variable in '()' to tally or something)
<9> File "blendclient.py", line 47, in destrib1
<9> ftp.retrbinary('RETR %s'%rndmfile, open('blends/%s'%rndmfile, 'wb').write) # Downloads rndmfile, saves it to blends/rndmfile in current working dir.
<9> File "/usr/lib/python2.4/ftplib.py", line 384, in retrbinary
<9> callback(data)
<9> IOError: [Errno 28] No space left on device
<10> why are no printer drivers listed in the second step of the add a printer wizard?
<4> cdubya- yea
<1> ok guys, i will log and hope all goes well with the install which by the looks of it has finished or wants to restart to finish.
<2> DBO: how it going?
<4> polpak- can i manually edit resolv.conf or will it change automatically ?
<6> [Ex0r]: well I'd try booting off the HD, set your ip manually to the 100 address, and set the resolv.conf
<6> [Ex0r]: it'll set it automatically when you run the dhcp client, but if you disable it first you can edit the file
<11> Do you guys know if there is an FTP server that broadcasts its existance through zeroconf?
<12> can anyone help me with my install of Sun's Java package?
<11> One that's available for Linux, that is.
<8> [Ex0r], methinks that still sounds like dns issues....
<13> anyone know of a way to connect to a Sonicwall VPN gateway with Ubuntu?
<4> omg it worked
<4> i restarted, and it suddenly worked
<8> heh
<4> after 15 reboots and a successful livecd boot, it works
<2> Mathew: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=116759&highlight=fluxbox
<8> woo hoo!
<4> wow
<14> thank jeebus
<6> [Ex0r]: my guess is it was a DNS problem
<8> heh dns
<3> are there any other temporary folders on ubuntu besides /tmp?
<4> and to think, I thought my ubuntu was fuxed up
<8> yep
<14> that was a bizarre and annoying one
<13> [Ex0r]: manually edit the ****er... and put many DNS servers in there.
<4> thank you so much guys
<13> [Ex0r]: and you don't need to reboot to change resolv.conf
<14> i do lurve it when it fixes itself
<8> that's where I was going to end up going...good heads up polpak
<14> rock on exor
<8> heh
<14> nighty night folks
<8> later
<4> alrighty, thanks a bunch folks!
<13> [Ex0r]: have fun.
<4> you guys are much more helpful than the fedora support team :)
<6> we try
<13> [Ex0r]: well... that's cause we're better. :)
<8> heh
<4> they call you idiots and ignore you if you don't know how to do something
<13> just kidding!
<4> night guys, and thanks alot
<8> lol at drumline
<8> heh



<13> well... one thing that does need to take a hike is the elitism in Linux
<8> yep
<8> true dat
<15> besides that whole being elite part ;)
<13> ...and Ubuntu certainly has shown the elitism the door.
<8> I find that LOTS of places I go
<4> goodnight, guys
<13> niter exor
<8> later exor...
<15> later
<8> yeah, that's what I like about this place.....
<10> I'm trying to setup my Epson Stylus C82 printer. It is detected correctly by the add a printer wizard in System -> Administration -> Printing however, when I need to select a driver for it, nothing is listed.
<8> I can ask and not get made to feel that way.....
<13> It's funny... no matter what distro I am using, I find myself in this channel offering and asking for Linux help. :)
<8> heh
<15> I find myself here or ##slackware
<8> go #ubuntu
<5> bliss_, maybe try a 'sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg'
<10> running dapper drake
<15> even though I havent used slackware for a couple years
<13> how is the slackware channel?
<15> ##slackware is one of the best help chanels out there
<15> non-elite
<13> schweet... I'll check it out some time.
<2> Matthew: umm maybe? are we guessing
<16> hehe this is my first time in a linux chat ... seems nice here (im not here to ask questions, hopefully answer the odd one here and there)
<15> they are into the old fashioned way of doing things
<17> Sounds #ubuntu-ish, AdmiralCrunch :)
<13> AdmiralCrunch: old fashioned?
<18> I think it's just a sign of Linux becoming more accepted.
<18> It's no longer just anti-social arsehats that know how to use it.
<15> yes, like compiling things from source all the time, less package managment
<15> build your own stuff
<15> program something if you need it
<17> I discovered that a long time ago when I tried Ubuntu for the first time, Snowfairy :)
<15> more "purist" I suppose
<8> docgnome.....you're sure that the printer is supported?
<10> cdubya: fairly sure.
<19> ok I have a slight problem
<15> whats that Dewbie
<19> Ive been tryig to get pppd to dial out
<18> MenZa hehe, well, I'm personally very glad about Ubuntu, my first (useful) distribution was FreeBSD, and I had someone holding my hand through that, but eventually lost touch and couldn't figure anything out... so went back to Windows for a long time
<17> heh.
<18> then... I found LiveCDs... started with Knoppix... then a slight time later, ubuntu... started using it on my own computer.... then I moved up to canadia, and showed it to my girlfriend... she converted to ubuntu full time, and so here I Am :P
<19> its et up right but when I type sudo pppd call 1xevdo it tells me that /usr/sbin/chat/ can't be found
<17> I'm not using any Linux distrobution right now, as I accidentally formatted it :S
<17> I'm beta testing Vista. It's not Linux, but it's alright.
<5> bliss_, that will install x, i'm just not sure if it will fix ur problem, have you checked to see if 'startx' works?
<18> and I've been perusing the wonderful volunteers here on a regular basis :)
<15> Dewbie, I will try to help you, but I gotta check on something for your problem
<13> Snowfairy: the main difference is that the interface does not REQUIRE the advanced technical knowledge to get it running anymore.. There are now two ways to do it. The difference with Windows is that the registry is undocumented you never could easily configure windows from an elite perspective.
<19> although
<19> lemme check somethig real quick
<13> snowblink: thus, the elites will still be here. The challenge is creating an environment where they aren't welcome. And Ubuntu is doing that nicely.
<18> drumline, mostly true I suppose :) although the registry is documented... trust me... I took about half a semester of MCSE study, and then said the hell with it :P
<15> Dewbie, as much information you have about your problem the better, since I have never used pppd I am just searching myself
<13> snowblink: might be documented, but try typing "man *****" on the windows command line. :)
<18> drumline, I partially welcome some of the elite people... as they often are -very- helpful if you're skilled enough to ask the right question.
<18> but, I don't like the ones that are just mean.
<18> lol :)
<18> snowblink is gonna wonder why you're typing to them ;) (silly nick complete) :)
<15> Snowfairy, I agree, I actually do like elitist linux people often, they know what they are talking about if you ask the right questions
<20> I'd like to set up a network server. it's supposed to do be WinNT4 PDC (samba), and provide authentication for all the *nix boxes I have (ldap). I also need SSO on the unix side (kerberos). Is there any doc on how to put this together so that I have one account and one p***word per user, even if they use both worlds?
<13> Snowfairy: I think we're not talking about the same thing. When I say "elite," I am talking about people who wont give you the answer and always refer you to google and man pages...
<21> lord windows ****s
<18> drumline, I call that mean :)
<8> heh, "cmd". "man *****". "Command not found."
<2> Matthew: if you read the howto I posted point no8
<13> snowblink: that too. :)
<18> drumline, elite I usually mean the people that know the inner working like the back of their hand. They often speak way over your head when they do give an answer, but some are even nice enough to explain.
<22> i am trying to instal flashplugin for mozila and i cannot can someone please help me? i followed the howto in !restricted but it still does not work
<2> Matthew: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=116759
<23> B0FH: use Synaptic to install flashplugin-nonfree
