<0> hupp3l, ur bootsector is whacked ... u can do what ||arifaX said about fixboot
<1> ||arifaX: wont that bulldoze GRUB?
<2> dylan_ then it just installs the base and nothing else, not even X windows
<3> Dr_Willis: fglrx + xorg + dual head + independend virtual resolutions = lots of headbanging :)
<4> whiter, but then there's no drivers, either. how do i get all my drivers?
<5> ah ok cool thanx i will do that
<6> dylan_: but you might want to try the expert mode on ubuntu install, if you don't have anything against the actual distribution.
<0> hupp3l, or u can reinstall linux, dual boot it providing the windows partition is still there and u should then be back to dual boot
<2> there are drivers and everything
<7> roe, actually fglrx has always been rather trivial under ubuntu for me. :P but i just use X and a clone on the tv out.
<2> just no gui and minimal programs
<8> hi, does anyone know how i can configure a key to launch a script?
<2> your internet will work
<2> your sound will work
<2> etc etc
<3> Dr_Willis: yea getting my X to work out of the box was no problem, its the dual head and different resolutions that is proving impossible



<2> thats how i installed my ubuntu dylan_, i built it up myself basically
<0> Evilsmevil, !keyboard shortcuts
<9> anyone: apt-get gives me 404s. even after an update and checking that the sources are correct. ping and torrents are working, just not apt-get.
<4> samuli, whats 'expert' do?
<7> roe, i saw that 'mepis' had a nice dual-head configuration tool. i tested out their live cd.. and 'borrowed' their config. :P
<10> how do i give a user full access on my ftp to a dir? It seems like when he creates a folder in /var/www/cstrike/ he cant access it, but he can access the other folders.
<4> whiter, what is the formula for downloading drivers? is there a common filename criteria?
<3> kennethlove: what package are you are installing
<11> willis whats sudo can you help em
<8> !keyboard shortcuts
<12> hmm... keyboard shortcuts is modifiable at System -> Preferences -> Keyboard Shortcuts, or at http://www.gnome.org/learn/access-guide/2.10/ch03.html#keynav-2
<9> roe: any. none of them are coming down
<6> dylan, you can, for example, extensively edit what packages installation install by default.
<7> ahmad, time to do some reading and learnin gof the basics of linux. start by typing "!sudo" and read the bots message/urls
<8> thanks jramsey
<3> kennethlove: you can do apt-get update?
<11> k
<11> !sudo
<12> somebody said sudo was a command that will let users run commands as root. Look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo for all information.
<0> Evilsmevil, yw
<9> roe: update gets nothing but 404s.
<10> how do i give a user full access on my ftp to a dir? It seems like when he creates a folder in /var/www/cstrike/ he cant access it, but he can access the other folders.
<4> samuli, because for smoe reason ... firefox 1.0.8 seems really slow when there's an image-intensive page
<4> like digg.com
<3> kennethlove: do an apt-get clean
<6> dylan_: firefox is pretty slow.
<9> roe: ok
<6> dylan_: you might want to try and upgrade it to 1.5
<9> roe: update still gets 404
<6> dylan_: much faster.
<4> samuli, is there a .deb for that?
<6> !tell dylan_ about firefox
<4> samuli, because i know the /opt/firefox/ trick by heart, but i also know that when i apt-get dist-upgrade everything will go to ****.
<6> dylan_ I dist-upgraded from hoary to breezy with ff1.5 and nothing got **** for me.
<6> dylan, but if you want to dist-upgrade from breezy you will be getting ff1.5 by default
<13> alguien habla espaol y puede darme una mano???????????
<14> dylan_, samuli: Please Watch Your Language
<3> kennethlove: does apt-cache searches work?
<14> :)
<4> selinium, sorry
<15> hi
<6> selinium, please!
<4> selinium, no worries
<9> roe: yep
<14> samuli: I got the smile on the next line! :) Sorry!
<15> can anybody give me some info how to enable/control 5.1 channel audio playback?
<6> lol :)
<14> :)
<16> why am i having issues opening a 939kb open office file?
<3> was it ever working?
<9> roe: apt-get? yeah, it's worked fine up to now (well, one other instance of this, but i can't find my notes on how to fix it)
<3> and does synaptics work?
<17> pundai: was that you filing bug #44732 ?
<18> sladen, i think so
<9> roe: i'm not sure, i'm through an ssh tunnel. :) but, last time, no
<9> roe: hold on. i'll try it through vnc
<17> pundai: Dell XPS Gen 2?
<18> sladen, yes
<17> pundai: and you try going to a console Ctrl-Alt-F1 and then running sudo tail -0f /var/log/messages and then pressing the Fn+F3 combination (using Ctrl-C to kill the 'tail' and Alt-F7 to switch back to X
<3> can you repost your sources? I am futzing with my xorg.conf so I have no irc history
