<0> dfr: if it's not a terribly old monitor (which doesn't sound like being), nothing bad. just an "Out of sync rate" warning on a black screen
<1> god I love the fonts in ubuntu
<2> grrr
<3> why is it that all of my custom installed fonts show up in say KDE when i do xlsfonts, but they do not in Fluxbox when i open up a term and do xlsfonts
<4> LjL: them lemme try forcing 1280 on 65Hz...
<1> easier to read than the tahoma with cleartype
<4> Ljl: *75
<5> bulltitan: nope I've stuck to the repository one, let me send you the wiki page
<6> ok
<5> ubotu: tell bulltitan about nvidia
<1> so next thing to fix
<7> how do I search for a package by name in aptitude?
<8> gavagai: it has only not had access today ... this box uptime is 13:28:14 up 5 days, 1:37, 3 users, load average: 0.00, 0.05, 0.08
<1> my video drivers
<4> brb
<5> zquirM: aptitude search
<0> zquirM: apt-cache search name. aptitude search name works too, but doesn't search in the long descriptions
<9> zquirM: search at the top (f10 to get there)
<10> i want to install limewire on ubuntu 6.06 any idea ?
<0> zquirM: oh right sorry, you mean from the UI
<11> hello
<0> !limewire
<12> first you need !java, then download the http://www.limewire.com/LimeWireSoftOther and unpack it. Then just run the runLime.sh file. Voila. Consider !frostwire as an alternative.
<13> !limewire
<13> :)
<13> I hear frostwire is much better
<11> do you know a program to uncompress .ace?
<9> !tell viksa about limewir
<10> !limewire
<0> !info unace
<12> unace: (extract, test and view .ace archives), section universe/utils, is optional. Version: 1.2b-3 (dapper), Packaged size: 14 kB, Installed size: 80 kB
<14> !linksys
<12> If you have a Linksys or Netgear router please get your firmware update
<10> !limewire
<12> first you need !java, then download the http://www.limewire.com/LimeWireSoftOther and unpack it. Then just run the runLime.sh file. Voila. Consider !frostwire as an alternative.
<11> i cant uncompress a .ace using unace, another programa?
<14> What chipset is Linksys's wireless cards?
<3> why is it that all of my custom installed fonts show up in say KDE when i do xlsfonts, but they do not in Fluxbox when i open up a term and do xlsfonts
<15> Hi
<4> LjL: nope, dont think it helped..... I'm still running 1024x768 at 75Hz with no option to make it 1280 or somehow else amend my refresh rate
<15> Can somone help me get sound on my ubuntu install?
<16> if you install a processor specifc kernel, hwo do you make apt use it when doing an update or etc?
<17> i am trying to install dapper to RAID using the http://www.ubuntu-in.org/wiki/SATA_RAID_Howto#Install_the_base_system but dmraid keeps failing
<18> Gullstad depends on the version of the card, they change chipsets all the time
<15> I get no sound and no sound card is detected
<16> if a new kernel gets released, it defaults back to the plain kernel
<14> NoUse: WMP54G
<4> LjL: BTW, i think it was fine before I did the kernel upgrade
<17> that is apt-get install dmraid fails
<18> Gullstad google around, I don' tknow off hand
<0> dfr: uh, but you did select 1280x1024 from the dpkg-reconfigure didn't you? try leaving it as the *only* option selected (or remove all other modes from xorg.conf)
<10> !java
<12> To install Java/Sun Java see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Java and see also !javadebs
<4> LjL: good call.. lemme see
<14> NoUse: Ok, thanks anyways
<17> it says.. invoke-rc.d: initscript dmraid, action "start" failed
<17> dpkg: error processing dmraid (--configure)
<19> if I do apt-get source linux-source-2.6.15, will all the the ubuntu patches already be applied to that source tree?
<20> hi everyone
<21> ok, here is a newb question, what commandline app do I use to play a .wav? I see esd running but dapper has no esdplay command as I've used in other distros. aplay works, but only if no other sound is playing
<0> dfr: of course be ready to reach for a console, in case you get out-of-sync
<2> if you don't have kde installed, and try running an app made for kde, will it still run? (For example, krioutil) It keeps telling me a misconfiguration in the X configuration
<19> so If I build and install it with the traditional make modules_install, etc., all of the ubu patches will be there?
<14> !ralink 2500
<0> dkr: try aplay
<12> I give up. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, Gullstad
<0> dkr: oh sorry
<14> !RTLink 2500
<12> I don't know, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, Gullstad
<4> LjL: I'm not afraid of console at all, hehe :)
<0> dkr: usr/bin/esdplay sound/esound-clients
<18> !tell Gullstad about ubotu
<21> LjL: ah, awesome, thanks
<22> Where do you ask when a certain software will have a newer available version in the repos?
<18> !tell Gullstad about wireless
<0> Samu: it won't until next Ubuntu release.
<19> !tell orospakr about ubotu
<19> oh. so that's what it is. :P
<2> wow, kde is over 400 megs in size?
<0> Samu: there's the Backports repository, if you feel like enabling it. then you can request for backports on the forums
<20> so i have to boxes: one winxp and one ubuntu. is there any way to play music on the xp box over my network? right now I have banshee / itunes, but i'd rather just play music through a samba share.
<21> samu: you can ask me... and I wtill tell you: Real Soon Now
<3> why is it that all of my custom installed fonts show up in say KDE when i do xlsfonts, but they do not in Fluxbox when i open up a term and do xlsfonts, is there some service i need to put on fluxbox's startup file that starts when KDE starts?
<23> how do i join unbuntu offtopic
<8> is there a howto in troubleshooting the network connectivity of a box?
<0> hawkes: /join #ubuntu-offtopic
<22> Ok maybe I wasn't clear enough. When can I update to vim7 through the repos?
<2> hawkes, - /join #ubuntu-offtopic
<23> thanks Ljl and Ex0r
<13> !bluetooth
<18> samu probably when the next version of ubuntu comes out
<12> I guess bluetooth is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BluetoothSetup and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BluetoothRemote
<4> LjL: hrmph... you know, I think it's a drivers problem...
<24> ok, i am getting really frustrated, i am new to this and getting a decently operating system is takeing me ages!!!!!
<4> LjL: 'cause I amended nvidia to nv.... and I got tons of options.. including 1280x1024 at 60Hz....
<25> Drake_: searching the forums helped me a lot today :) I learnt a few commands, like i"p route" and "ip addr" which are good at telling you if you even have an IP Address!
<0> dfr: what driver are you using?
<22> NoUse, Isn't that like after 6 months or something?
<18> samu yeah
<0> dfr: well, i'm using nvidia and i'm at 1400x1050@75Hz ;-)
<9> samu: well, no. october.
<4> LjL: right now I turned on nv.. before I was using nvidia.... had to re-install it after kernel upgrade too
<1> will linux clean my LCD for me?
<18> !vim7
<12> vim7 will be available in edgy
<22> So why is that. There's lots of other software getting updated regularly.
<24> how do you navigate through the file system in the terminal, say i want to 'go up a level' in dos you would cd.. how in terminal? thanks guys!
<18> samu only for securuty updates
<6> seems like it makes no sense to install nforce drivers i feel that it will be a waste of time and it might screw something,... anyway thanks jason
<1> damn fingerprints
<9> dawson_: same way.
<25> Yeah, Dewbie if you do sudo apt-get install tft-screen-cleaner lol ;)
<18> samu otherwise it won't get updated
<26> Dewbie: yes but you need to put some elbow grease into it
<26> and a damp cloth
<24> when i try cd.. i get command not found
<8> Snellgrove: I have an ip address just don't have access to the gateway at the moment
<25> dawson_: "cd .." ;)
<20> dawson, try cd /
<20> that will get you to root
<20> nm
<0> Samu: not all distributions have the same update policy. with Ubuntu, you get security fixes and major bug fixes. you also get some backports if you're ready for the additional risk
<9> dawson_: oh, you need spaces. cd .. (no idea why dos allows no spaces, it shouldnt)
<17> i am trying to install dapper to RAID using the http://www.ubuntu-in.org/wiki/SATA_RAID_Howto#Install_the_base_system but dmraid keeps failing
<26> Drake_: route add default gw <gatewayIP>
<17> that is apt-get install dmraid fails
<17> it says.. invoke-rc.d: initscript dmraid, action "start" failed
<27> dawson - type cd<space><dot><dot>
<17> dpkg: error processing dmraid (--configure)
<28> anyone knows whaty languages do anjuta supports?
<17> anyone have any ideas whats going on?
<4> LjL: what kernel version you running?
<29> my friend gets the following in dmesg and his internet connection doesn't work: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth0: link is not ready
<0> dfr: dapper's default, 2.6.15
<24> thanks guys!
<0> dfr: 2.6.15-23-k7
<1> hmm I wanna update to the newest version i.e. 6.06 how might I do this?
<0> !upgrade
<12> Upgrading to Ubuntu 5.10 breezy -> http://wiki.ubuntu.com/BreezyUpgrade. Upgrading to Ubuntu 6.06 Dapper -> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperUpgrades . Note: gksudo "update-manager -d" always updates to the latest development verison: (eft when its open)
<4> LjL: ok.. so it's exactly same as me (I'm also running k7)
<4> LjL: did you have to do anything special about nvidia drivers after upgrade?
<4> LjL: which was a few weeks back?

<6> haaaaa so much for nothing nvidia's nforce only has audio and network drivers :P uffff
<8> radar1976: thank you most graciously....is there a process to go through to find out why the gateway address had been dropped?
<20> i asked this question a couple of minutes ago, but not one answered so here goes again. so i have to boxes: one winxp and one ubuntu. is there any way to play music on the xp box over my network? right now I have banshee / itunes, but i'd rather just play music through a samba share.
<31> LjL: it's done
<0> dfr: i only installed dapper recently. no, nothing special -- however, since the Breezy times, i always had some problems with refresh rate. specifically, it normally worked, but sometimes it booted to 60Hz (especially upon reboot), and then it kept booting at 60Hz. after a few attempts, it eventually got back to 75Hz. never realized why this was
