<1> NoUse is that it fixed? will it be back tomorrow?
<3> eclypse, having some cramfs disks ?
<4> what?
<7> NoUse, i want grub on a floppy so if need be i can remove the dapper hdd and let the windows setup remain unscathed.
<4> I have no idea what your asking lol
<8> ry: try NoUse suggestion, I don't know if mine works on win2k+



<3> ok i guess you don't
<2> ry ah ok
<2> jtj I've never had that happen to me in 5 years of using debian based systems :-) so I don't know
<4> hmm
<9> I installed lm-sensors and another app that would display my cpu info to the panel, but all I get is "No sensors found" I have a amd athlon xp 2,2+ cpu and a asus a7v333 (via kt333 chipset) motherboard
<7> i've never installed grub onto a floppy after the OS is already installed, but i imagine its possible?
<1> NoUse ah OK, well thanks for the fix
<3> keep trying with other possibilities
<4> when I do mount /dev/sda it says 'cannot read /etc/fstab : no such file or
<4> directory
<3> the same command line, but try with different devices
<10> ry: grub-floppy is your friend =)
<3> eclypse, that's normal
<7> DarkElf109, thank you :)
<3> you have to specify a mount dir
<4> what?
<4> oh
<4> umm...
<4> example?
<3> eclypse, it's of the form of : mount <device> <directory>
<4> oic
<3> like : mount /dev/sda1 /test
<4> so it would be...
<4> ic
<3> that's why i made you create the /test directory
<10> Does anybody in here know how to enable sound or local mountable media in LTSP?
<6> how do i make myself a root user?
<11> ubotu: tell sppt abotu root
<12> sppt: sudo -i
<3> sppt, add yourself to the wheels group
<4> lol
<6> thats more gentoo-alike
<4> argh
<4> it keeps saying invalid arguement
<3> what eclypse ?
<4> for example
<4> mount /dev/sda /test
<6> *sigh* where did my screen resolution setting go in KDE?
<4> it says mount: Mounting /dev/sda on /test failed: Invalid arguement
<13> anyone know off hand how long erasing a dat72 tape cart takes?
<3> eclypse, ls /proc
<14> anyone have any idea why my DVDRW drive is suddenly only running at 4x instead of 8x?
<4> want me to tell you exactly whats in it?
<4> it found it.
<3> oki
<3> type mount
<3> alone without arguments
<4> k
<4> it said the following...
<3> this will give you the list of mounted thingies
<15> how does one edit the properties of the "Places" part of the menu so that the history is not visible
<16> i've been looking around for some xgl/compiz information but can only find tech heavy articles, does nayone know of a good wiki about these packages? i'd like to know more about them
<4> none on /sys type sysfs (rw)
<4> none on /proc type prot (rw, nodiratime)
<17> if i want to change some icons, say example the icon representing my portable music player (an iPod Nano). where do i place these icon files i download?
<4> udev on /dev type tmpfs (rw)
<12> ubotu tell qmf -about xgl
<16> the ubotu thing doesn't seem to work
<0> I can't believe so many people use compiz ... it's a functionality wasteland
<18> ubotu tell Gullstad about wireless



<3> okidoki
<0> even metacity, which is pretty minimalistic, has buckets more features than compiz
<4> lol.
<3> eclypse, ls /dev/sd*
<16> metacity? (sorry i'm very new to this. it's my second attempt at switching to linux. this time it's going very well)
<3> and ls /dev/hd*
<0> metacity is the default window manager (program that displays titlebars and lets you move around windows) for gnome
<4> /dev/sda5 /dev/sda2 /dev/sda1 /dev/sda
<16> ah
<19> WarpX: have you see the Xgl Fuctions with metacity???
<4> ls: /dev/hd*: no such file or directory
<0> gnuaha7: no, I briefly tried to play with it but was unsuccessful
<8> is there some way to list packages I installed on a specific date?
<16> so i should be looking for metacity themeing tutorials a opposed to gnome tutorials?
<0> I'd rather wait for aiglx I suppose
<3> eclypse, mount /dev/sda5 /test
<19> WarpX: i remember you that Xgl runs with Compiz...
<3> eclypse, sorry guy i have to go
<4> invalid arguement.
<4> damnit
<3> try all sda*
<4> :(
<3> good luck
<3> i am very sorry
<4> *sighs* k
<10> Does anybody in here know how to enable sound or local mountable media in LTSP?
<0> you remember me?! this is the first or second time I've IRCd in years
<3> i'll be back in a hour
<4> ok..
<4> they all get invalid arguements
<4> I think we're missing somethign int he command or something
<4> in the*
<19> WarpX: sorry the sentences was: remember that...
<19> WarpX: the reason for the many users of compiz is that those peoples uses Xgl
<4> has anyone been listening to my problem and does anyone have any idea what
<4> I should do?
<0> yes, but I cannot believe that so many people can use compiz on a day-to-day basic
<0> basis
<20> LjL: when i start up opera it opens a tab with "opera:illegal-url-0" in the header as well as my home-page, any idea how to stop that ?
<4> !xgl
<21> XGL on Ubuntu: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/CompositeManager - Join #ubuntu-xgl for all the XGL fun on Ubuntu systems. Pretty videos on http://www.novell.com/linux/xglrelease/ See http://tinyurl.com/pw5ez for Kubuntu systems
<0> it's a nice demo/toy but it doesn't have much functionality
<0> I certainly couldn't use it every day
<4> !busybox
<21> I don't know, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, eclypse
<22> scifi: does setting a home page in the preferences help?
<14> anyone know why my 8xDL DVDWR suddently started to only write at 4x?
<4> has anyone been listening to my problem and does anyone have any idea what
<4> I should do?
<4> has anyone been listening to my problem and does anyone have any idea what
<4> I should do?
<10> WarpX: If you have ADD< it'll keep you at your computer...implicit functionality =)
<20> LjL: no ive done that already, it opens my home page but also a second page with that funny url
<22> scifi: i'd have no idea
<20> ok
<19> WarpX: SUSE 10.1 comes with Xgl and MANY people use it... me too can't use Xgl day-to-day
<0> it sounds like it's still effort to get xgl working under suse
<4> is it true that XGL under some cases makes ubuntu more responsive?
<4> err, gnome
<0> I would suspect that the kind of people who can make it work are the kind of people that can read a doc ... therefore I would expect they're the kind of people who desire more functionality :)
<19> WarpX: but if some body tell you that WinBugs looks better than any linux... show to him Xgl and you will feel very good with hes eyes
<23> For a storage drive formated at reiserfs, would I want to make it an extended? or primary?
<24> Does anybody know how I can get the headphone jack on my laptop's Intel 82801G sound card?
<0> I think clearlooks/metacity looks better than xgl/compiz
<14> What do you guys think of NVU ?
<0> personally <shrug>
<25> does linux have anything like bsd device hints... where you can disable certain hardware when booting the installer CD... i.e. - disable the PS/2 mouse port?
<19> WarpX: or people that use Gnu/linux to play games and play films and music... but oviusly don't know what is VIM, Anjuta or GCC .P
<2> eclypse yeah I think it can
<10> KuLover: Unless you have a whole bunch of partitions on the drive (more than 4), go with Primary
<26> how do I make a file like a text document from the terminal?
<27> join mips
<4> anyone have any idea how to fix the infamous mounting root issue? lol
<4> I just want to be able to bloody boot up for christ sake
