<7> faisal_d: yw
<13> zipola change the settings in the screensaver set up
<15> NoUse: I've had the upper box not ticked all the time.
<15> So it's not the screensaver.
<16> any one know how to set up new hp5650 printer? Cannot seem to remove "default"? thanks
<13> zipola the screensaver and power settings are seperate

<17> Its pissing me off only thing I see is distored colors with mplayer
<18> There was recently news about updated language packs for 6.06 - do anyone have a reference or more info about this?
<17> I did that
<5> Well, I don't know what to tell ya Kryton, I can't figure out what the deal is! Good luck figuring it out though!
<15> NoUse, my power settings are all so that it won't black out during AC power.
<1> Cheers :-) I'll have a play! Again, thank for the help.
<19> if I installed putty using synaptic and it installed some other required packages, how do I remove it AND those packages?
<20> no problem
<13> zipola what about the BIOS settings?
<15> I didn't have this problem with 5.10.
<15> So it couldn't probably be BIOS.
<21> icedragon1: there's no automated way of doing that afaik, you'd need to see what it depends on and attempt to remove those too until it starts trying to remove core system things
<19> thanks Ng
<19> is there a log I can check to find out which ones it installed ?
<21> icedragon1: you could use something like deborphan to work out which packages don't have anything depend on them, that can be quite a nice way of cleaning a system up, but again it's not very automated
<19> that sounds like a nifty program Ng



<21> icedragon1: you could do "apt-cache depends putty" and you'll see the top level of dependencies it pulled in
<22> this is really userfriendl!
<13> zipola what player are you using to view DVDs?
<23> can anyone please help me get dual displays working in ubuntu?.. i've gotten as far as having the desktop cloned on each monitor.. but when i turn the Xinerama option on, the second monitor shuts off
<19> ok thanks Ng. All I had to do was go to synaptic --> file --> history, and now I see which were installed. Guess I should look harder first :)
<21> icedragon1: aha, excellent :)
<6> Sphygmos, what video card?
<24> Anybody knows how to enable mouse scrolling on a thinkpad x41?
<25> is it possible to use the "mail" command to send an email in a bash script... if i do it via command line it requires me to enter Control+D at the end of the msg text...
<21> I should probably explore synaptic some more, I'm used to doing everything by hand ;)
<23> dr_willis: intel integrated 945g
<15> NoUse, mplayer dvd://1 -vo xv -ao oss -alang fi,en -cache 8192 -framedrop -fs -stop-xscreensaver
<23> dr_willis: with one vga and one dvi port
<21> Apple15: I believe you can prepare the mail and pipe it to mail's stdin
<6> Sphygmos, Ugh. :P well my example nvidia x config wont help ya much then.
<23> yeah that's the problem.. all the stuff on the wiki is for nvidia or ati
<26> Anyone here use Evolution? I need to know how to change what port it connects to for SMTP.
<25> Ng - i'll try that
<3> ****
<6> Sphygmos, could try out that mepis live cd.. it had some helper tool for 2 montior setup. then snag/dissect its xorg.conf :P if it works
<3> thats a bit unfair
<0> See you guys later
<13> zipola try this page http://linuxreviews.org/howtos/power/xorg_dpms/
<15> Ther's a nice box ticked in Gconf /apps/gnome-power-manager : dim_on_idle :D
<15> I'll try if unticking it solves the problem.
<27> Is the configuration file (.config?) for the kernel that ships with breezy available somewhere?
<13> zipola cool
<28> hello. im having troubles with ati drivers. i have an ati x200 and when i install the driver following the wiki instructions i cant use gnome anymore. I reboot and get the login screen but the laptop just freeze after typing my p***word. it starts to show that gnome splash kinda fuzzy and freezy. i can use gnome by commenting out the Load
<15> NoUse, thanks for help, I should have remembered that Gconf has more (hidden) options than the graphical tools.
<28> hello. im having troubles with ati drivers. i have an ati x200 and when i install the driver following the wiki instructions i cant use gnome anymore. I reboot and get the login screen but the laptop just freeze after typing my p***word. it starts to show that gnome splash kinda fuzzy and freezy. i can use gnome by commenting out the Load "dri" at xorg.conf. What could be happening?
<6> Gambit--, thers used to be a way to get it from /proc or /sys - if that feature was enqbled in the kernel compile.. but i cant rember the details.
<27> Dr_Willis, hrm digging.
<29> Oh my *god* there are 915 people on this channel :O

<29> yallmo: Try unplugging any peripherals you have plugged in...
<32> mbgb14: Its an laptop, i dont have anything connected.
<28> is anybody else here having troubles with ati drivers too?
<29> wsjunior: when I loaded mine, I could no longer run a screensaver/lock the screen...
<29> yallmo: Hmm sorry man -- no idea.
<28> mbgb14: did u solve ur problem?
<29> wsjunior: yup :D I wiped it and didn't install the ATI drivers :)
<28> mbgb14: hehe.
<33> hey, I've a question: I started an Ubuntu 5.10 to 6.06 upgrade (with the new update-manager), but the power cut half way through. System is fine, but is there a way to continue from where it crashed?
<29> wsjunior: I tend to be quite a hothead when it comes to problems. Instead of trying to fix them, I'd much rather just wipe the system
<28> mbgb14: im afraid to use this solution to my problem as well..
<0> usound: Apt-get should continue
<29> usound: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
<33> ok, I'll try that
<29> wsjunior: it works good :D haha. not alot of things that it *cant* fix :D
<34> you guys seen this? http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org
<29> treb0r: of course - who hasn't?
<34> mbgb14: sorry. I'm new
<35> anyone use ubuntu with a quad speaker setup and figure out how to bind the master volume control to both the front and rear (ie. wave surround) slider?
<34> coming from gentoo land, it's pretty amazing...
<29> treb0r: hey thas okay :D in fact, i dont even bother with Automatix anymore - EasyUbuntu all the way :D
<32> Anyone that know what i can do if the system stops on the "Starting hotplug subsystem" in the boot?
<36> hi
<29> treb0r: youch - gentoo can be quite difficult.
<33> mbgb14, thanx, I guess its working now (maybe start over but not as bad as update-manager - "231 packages could not be installed, bla bla bla")
<37> can anyone help me with ethernet problems after upgradin from breezy?
<29> arnau: dont ask permission to ask a question - just ask the question
<37> ok
<29> usound: no problem, glad that helped :)
<34> mbgb14: difficult but rewarding. i used to think ubuntu was for real beginners. how wrong i was...
<33> arnau, what are your problems?
<34> ubuntu seems to be what linux has been promising to be for years
<36> I just upgraded from 5.10 to 6.60 ... worked fine for my desktop PC, but my Notebook (IBM Thinkpad t23) refuses to start with the new kernel. The old kernel still works for booting, but no modules are loaded (sound, wlan etc) Can anyone help me?
<38> treb0r: right
<22> How do I set gnome to display the border only when moving windows?
