Comments:
<0> polpak, it is in /etc/init.d/rc2.d
<1> i know this isn't much info, i was hoping that someone else had possibly encountered this same problem. I'm thinking it may be the hard drive i'm using (a separate one for Ubuntu that I salvaged from an old pc) that's bad
<2> Anyone know of a GUI interface to configuring runlevels?
<0> polpak, ok, now it is there
<3> tonyyarusso, bum
<1> tonyyarusso, it actually seems pretty random, it happens when I reboot tho, that much I've noticed
<4> nickrud: I just tired doing insmod parport and it returned "can't read 'parport': No such file or directory'. Am I using the command improperly
<1> sorry, when I boot up
<2> CokeNCode: Possible... You might be will off though to save logs the next time it happens, and pastebin them.
<2> nickrud: Does that let me do ones other than 2?
<3> tonyyarusso, no clue :) rcconf is a text gui, works nicely
<2> nickrud: I'll check that out too.
<5> how can i force dpkg to use i386 arch instead of amd64?
<1> tonyyarusso, ok, thanks, last time it happened, i came on using bitchx, i'd lost the xserver but, it crashed into console, and i was able to run bitchx and ask for help, hpoefully if it happens again, i'll be able to come back in and give more info
<3> MrKubuntuUser, you probably would prefer to use modprobe
<6> cablop, you said this command works from the command line?
<4> nickrud: Can I specify stuff like the irq number using modprobe?
<5> how can i force dpkg to use i386 arch instead of amd64?
<2> CokeNCode: Yeah, I run irssi on a terminal so I can get support if X dies.
<0> polpak, i created the symbolic link, is that all i have to do?
<3> MrKubuntuUser, you pinned me. Dapper, right?
<6> skpl, should be
<4> nickrud: Yeah, Kubuntu Flight 6
<0> polpak, but i have to restart to test it right?
<6> skpl, you can test it with sudo /etc/rc2.d/S66filename restart
<4> nickrud: Sorry :D
<6> skpl, ***uming the link is called S66filename
<0> polpak, thank you
<5> how can i force dpkg to use i386 arch instead of amd64?
<0> i think i get it
<7> hmm... almost every time i run azureus, amaroK and x-chat my system hang up...
<0> though i do not understand why we need symbolic links
<8> CokeNCode, that looks like it might be hardware - please reseat the video card, and ram launch the memtester before you go to bed and see what comes back
<9> polpak, yes it works fine
<6> skpl, cause the file should be in /etc/init.d but we want to reference from many places
<1> on to my other problem, after i update the kernel, i get 4 different boot options for ubuntu, this is a bit much isnt it, is there any reason to keep the old kernel boot option around?
<9> polpak, really fine
<10> someone help me with this my boss is gonna stab me
<10> lol
<6> skpl, so we link rathr than copy incase we want to change it, we don't have to change them all
<11> nahoj-: start them from console and see if standard output helps to figure out what the prob si
<11> nahoj-: is
<12> hello everybody!
<6> echo, ?
<3> MrKubuntuUser, I really need to upgrade my skills on how modules are handled in dapper. I have some ideas, but none worth your wasting time on
<1> ompaul, could it be as a result of me installing nvidea drivers, when i have an onboard soundcard ?
<0> polpak, do i have to make the script executable?
<10> twinview on a 5200
<6> cablop, what is the output of pwd ?
<0> polpak, i have yet to do that
<6> skpl, yes
<10> polpak, twinview on a 5200, i got it workin... thanks for that before
<7> CosmoDad, thx... *checking out*
<9> polpak, it's /SIMAT-MEN/plantilla/rec
<0> polpak, chmod +x right?
<6> cablop, can you pastebin the output of ls ?
<6> skpl, yeah
<8> CokeNCode, it might be the drivers - save /etc/X11/xorg.conf to one side and use VESA and if it works without falling over then consider changing the driver or card
<2> nickrud: How do I choose runlevel with that tool? rcconf #?
<9> polpak, i go
<1> ompaul, ok ... thanks
<3> tonyyarusso, you don't, you set the default run level in /etc/inittab
<6> echo, so what are you needing help with?
<8> CokeNCode, the audio should not be part of the problem
<0> polpak, for some reason the restart command does not work, it tells me to use start or tsop
<6> skpl, ok, just try start
<1> right, i meant to say video card
<2> nickrud: But what if I want to have mulitiple runlevels configured differently?
<12> XGL ???
<1> i have an onboard video card
<8> CokeNCode, if disabled it has no influence
<0> polpak, it worked
<12> someone tried the new XGL on Ubuntu???
<10> polpak, tryin to find something that shows someone elses xorg file that has a 5200
<3> MrKubuntuUser, you add a new file to /etc/modprobe.d/ and in that file have a line options parport <options>, see alsa-base in that dir for an example
<6> WillyTell, on dapper yes
<1> ompaul, it's not disabled, that's what i use ... :/
<9> polpak, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12269
<8> WillyTell, #ubuntu+1 would be a better channel for that conversation
<6> echo, pretty much all the nvidia configs are the same
<12> thank you very much!
<4> nickrud: OK, I'll look now
<10> polpak
<8> CokeNCode, ahh I thought you had two cards there for a moment - just try that and there ya go
<10> polpak, ok ty... ill search on google
<3> tonyyarusso, you can set up each run level as you chose, and either telinit <runlevel> or change the default in /etc/inittab or during the boot, edit the grub menu line
<1> ok, but i can't reseat an onboard card ... i think when i ran Automatix, i installed some nvidea drivers that may be causing the problem
<2> nickrud: Right, but the "set up each run level as you chose" part is what I'm wondering about.
<3> MrKubuntuUser, that stuff has changed 3 times in this major kernel release, it's fun keeping up <not>
<1> either that, or the fact that it has to switch from one resolution to another when loading up xserver. I fixed that now, so I'll see if that helps
<9> polpak?
<8> !automatix
<13> well, automatix is unsafe, it overwrites configuration files, and does things like "echo -e 'y\nY\n'" that are considered risky. Please do not use it. There are alternative applications, but it's often best to read the documentation.
<3> tonyyarusso, just what are you attempting to do? I might be able to give better <more specific> advice
<8> CokeNCode, ^^
<6> echo http://www.ublug.org/ubuntu/twinview/twinview-howto-breezy.html
<14> is it gnome 2.14 with breezy badger?
<6> cablop, you're doing something wrong.. I can't tell what it is though
<1> ompaul, ok, what would you suggest instead of automatix ?
<3> scifi, 2.12 in breezy, 2.14 in dapper
<8> scifi, no 2.12 that will be in the next release
<10> polpat... thanks again
<2> nickrud: Well, my first thing is simple, just removing gdm from runlevel 3, but I'd rather learn the general stuff just for the knowledge. (I think I can do the specific part already, but hey.)
<6> echo, it's polpak
<8> CokeNCode, documentation or #easyubuntu
<10> oh god i did it again
<14> can i upgrade to 2.14 from within breezy badger?
<6> echo you know xchat does tab completion right?
<10> im like talkin to customers and typin at the same time
<3> tonyyarusso, ok, first, runlevel 2 is the default run level. Remove gdm from that one.
<4> nickrud: oof... so the kernel just uses options from a file with the same name as the module in /etc/modprobe.d whenever a module is loaded?
<10> i have no clue what that is
<6> echo type pol then hit tab
<10> lol
<1> ompaul, so you think automatix may be the source of my problem?
<10> wow
<10> thanks
<6> echo also
<6> echo bash has tab completion
<2> nickrud: No, I want it by default, but would like to be able to create a semi-recovery option in grub for if X is borking on me or I just want to boot fast, but I don't want to full recovery mode.
<3> MrKubuntuUser, I believe so, anyway it makes sense to name it the same as the module. You are currently a guinea pig :)
<1> i installed it a good few days ago, and i've shutdown and booted up fine several times since then
<10> whats bash?
<6> echo the shell you get in a terminal
<10> oooh
<10> yeah
<10> damnit
<2> CokeNCode: Ooh. Yeah, automatix is icky.
<6> echo, so for example typing /u<tab>/loc<tab> will give you /usr/local
<10> sorry i was usin windoze for the last 6 months... before that kubuntu//// im not that good at the linux thing yet
<15> born again sh - ell
<8> CokeNCode, without actually having the machine here I could not say, however I have seen a lot of people come through this channel with broken boxes as a result of it, two choices one reinstall or ask the author for help
<1> tonyyarusso, lol, ok. I'll keep that in mind.
<3> tonyyarusso, ok, then remove it from 3, then add another grub stanza and add 3 to the end of the kernel invocation for that stanza
<4> nickrud: haha, OK. I'll try it out in a virtual machine now
<10> thats cool
<1> thanks ompaul
<10> thanks for that
<6> echo =)
<2> nickrud: Right. Just wondering if there's an easy way to mess with stuff generally.
<3> MrKubuntuUser, yes, I remember you saying you have a virtual machine :) I'm looking forward to having vmware or the free equiv soon
<16> hello
<16> can i ask a question?
<17> moonwatcher, yes :) you are supposed to
<8> #ubuntu-il
<18> how can i start the sound so i can use mpg321?
<4> nickrud: I'm actually using Virtual PC for this... it runs Ubuntu very nicely, even though Microsoft says they don't support Linux
<6> tonyyarusso, if you really want to learn how the boot stuff works, take a look at "Linux from Scratch" they explain a lot of it there
<8> moonwatcher, ask away
<3> tonyyarusso, what you're doing is right down in the guts of a gnu/linux system, easy is relative :)
