Comments:
<0> i like the insert option
<1> jhons you can install grub on floppy /dev/fd0
<0> k its reading databases
<2> ya but i cant get into linux
<3> hello
<0> uhoh
<0> got an error
<1> jhons did install finish okay?
<2> yes
<0> well it got thru some of the process
<4> christopher: "O Liability! I do disclaim thee!" ;)
<0> lol
<3> excuseme i must edit the initialization string for thr modem device but i dont now where is located the fle that contain this string can somebody help me please?
<1> jhons2 did you install on same drive as windows?
<4> christopher: what was the error? please only paste the relevant line
<0> it says... flubox depends on menu (>=2.1.19) ; however:
<2> navarone: no
<0> package menu is not installed
<0> dpkg: error processing fluxbox (--install):
<4> christopher: ok, no worries; try sudo apt-get install menu
<2> navarone: but i restarted and it went into windows and now i dont even see my slave drive
<4> christopher: apt-get deals with dependencies, but dpkg doesn't
<0> oh that sudo command..
<0> does that mean switch user do or super user do
<0> its like a root byp*** right?
<5> christopher, silly user do
<4> christopher: in this case, super user do
<1> jhons2, you can no longer see the slave drive cos it is formatted in linux file system and windows does not recognize it
<4> Seveas: heh
<2> navarone: ok how do i get back into linux?
<0> ok i typed sudo apt-get install menu
<0> still going
<0> ok its setting up i think
<0> or already did im back at my command prompt
<1> jhons2, you should be able to boot with the ubuntu cd and I think type rescue at prompt. That will get a "live" linux going and you can then install grub to floppy...are you using windows now I take it?
<4> christopher: ok, up arrow until you get the sudo dpkg command back, and hit enter
<2> navarone: i am using windows xp now
<6> Hi again
<0> oh the first one
<7> can someone help me i'm trying to get the graphic libraries installed for php and i tried imagick php5-gd and neither have worked
<4> christopher: yeah
<2> navarone: when i get back into linux what do i do to install grub on a floppy
<0> sudo dpkg -i fluxbox.etc...
<4> christopher: yup
<0> so scroll up that and just hit enter?
<0> oh wow
<4> christopher: up arrow back throuh the command history to it, and hit enter
<0> i didnt know it saved all the commands
<4> christopher: the shell is a garden of delights ;)
<4> Seveas: are you a ubuntu dev?
<0> yes it is
<0> im 25 and i always wanted to learn what linux was about
<8> its about being free as in beer
<0> took me 7 years to get and start to put time into it
<4> Dasnipa`: as in "information wants to be beer" ? ;)
<8> yeah
<5> amphi, so far I've successfully avoided becoming one - this will not last forever I'm afraid
<0> amphi so i take its installed now
<4> Seveas: heh
<9> christopher, only took me 1 year :P
<5> <0> took me 7 years to get and start to put time into it <-- cool!
<4> christopher: if dpkg completed without error, yeah
<0> lol
<5> hrm, wrong line...
<5> <4> Dasnipa`: as in "information wants to be beer" ? ;) <-- THAT is cool :)
<0> hey college got in the way people
<0> i didnt have time to mess around with the computer like that
<4> christopher: I find it better to put off the procrastination until nearer the time
<10> I have one problem...when I log into my universities ssh server and I run matlab when I click enter nothing happens.. It seems like enter, backspace is disabled...
<10> but when I log in from windows it works...
<0> i even took a c++ programming cl*** to help me get into it
<4> Seveas: someone's .sig on k5 IIRC, not my own sadly
<7> does anyone know where i can get the graphic libraries for php? i tried imagick and php5-gd
<5> php5-gd should work
<0> ok so now i fluxbox.. i take it. that its better than enlightenment
<11> providing you have php5 installed, not php4
<5> depends on what you mean by better
<7> Seveas, well my script says call to undefined for imagecreate
<1> jhons2, boot from install cd and you can get a functioning live linux going. However I am fuzzy on what you really have to do then. I am not sure if you must mount the ubuntu partition after making a directory to mount it in or simply go to a terminla and type "grub install fd0". Perhaps someone else could provide further info there...?
<7> elkbuntu, yes i have php 5 installed
<4> christopher: fluxbox is quite minimalist
<3> nobody can help me ?
<4> christopher: I use openbox
<0> better than gnome that is seveas
<4> christopher: which is similar
<4> christopher: 'better' is in the eye of the beholder
<0> ok another prob
<5> amphi, and beauty is in the eye of the beerholder
<12> hi I've finally installed ubuntu on my pc, but I'm sadly back on xp because I can't get my network connection to work (I'm on a nat, my card is a rtl8139). can you help me please?
<4> Seveas: heh
<0> i went thru ubuntu documentation and wiki
<0> and i still cant get realplayer10GOLD.bin to install
<2> navarone: thanks alot for your help! i found further info on http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/4622
<13> hi people , could any body please direct me to a web page that would help me install my lexmark Z611 in ubuntu ..thanks
<14> christopher: I'd suggest not even bothering with it and just using mplayer with w32codecs
<1> jhons2, good going...lol
<1> jhons2, maybe easier to have something like a how to printed off since you will be net less for the duration
<0> you guys dont mind the stupid questions do you?
<14> ubotu: tell ipr about print
<10> ??
<2> navarone: thanks again- you got me pointed there!
<14> christopher: that's why we come here
<15> question: i wanna upgrade to dapper or w/e it is, i have my /home dir on a seperate harddrive, can i get rid of ubuntu and install that without effecting my /home, but have dapper use it?
<13> thanks jason
<0> im excited to just be using this and learning all this stuff hah
<0> ok this is really really basic
<1> jhons2, just take your time...it isn't a big deal really...just a simple operation
<16> motionblur > NAT meaning behing a Router ?
<5> christopher, we live for stupid questions :)
<0> directories... how do they go?
<5> christopher, by foot
<0> lol
<14> I don't get the question or the answer...
<0> i mean. im used to windows.. my documents. my shared files, my downloads, my pictures etc
<4> christopher: you might find the 'intro to linux' book at tldp.org useful
<14> ubotu: tell christopher about dirs
<0> and of course the oh so famous program files directory which is where i dled everything to in windows
<5> christopher, ah :) google for FHS (filesystem hierarchy standard)
<4> christopher: /usr/bin
<0> well
<0> heres what i do know
<1> christopher everything's me me me with you...;)
<0> home directory is the main directory and that i should just stick with that
<5> yes
<17> can somebody tell me why do I get a firewall error in azureus if now firewall is enabled by default ?
<0> but then the /etc /usr and /var are jus sitting there looking at me
<10> what is the command to simulate enter?
<10> like backspace is ctrl h
<18> i just used wine to install Steam, but I can't figure out how to run Steam. it says use .wine/drive_c/Program Files/Steam/, but apparently that doesn't exist
<4> christopher: you're using stuff in them all the time, unbeknownst to yourself
<5> christopher, all programs are installed there :)
<0> navarone... and im not an only child heh
<1> nick01, I think iptables is enabled by default...isn't it? anyone?
<18> anyone know where wine installs stuff to?
<17> navarone, how do I get rid of it ?
<5> Chris_Tucker, c:\Program Files (or even having c:\ and d:\) is an utterly broken concept
<19> ah crap my udev is updateing...
<0> ok so when i dl a program ... i should get used to installing them to /usr/bin?
<19> why the heck am i upgrading to xorg7?
<17> nick01@T72:~$ ps aux |grep iptables
<17> nick01 7817 0.0 0.3 3796 756 pts/0 S+ 02:26 0:00 grep iptables
<5> christopher, no
<12> phbc50: yes
<14> christopher: you should let the package manager do all that for you, all you do is ask it to install X
<5> christopher, you should get used to not manually downloading :)
<4> Seveas: as is having file extensions determine executability, and ... and ...
<20> christopher: No, you should use apt-get instead and never do anything yourself, 'cause that would take effort and would be silly.
<0> oh
<17> navarone, ps aux doesn't report iptables
<18> does anyone know where wine installs stuff to?
