Comments:

<0> Ng: do I need to apt-get it or is it in Additional Applications ?
<1> you have a backup OmegaAlpha of your old xorg.conf?
<2> bart___: probably apt-get, or synaptic of course :)
<3> heliotrope: You read the manuals and make your configuration files that best suit your needs.
<4> I think linux seems to mange cpu throttling on my laptop better than windows. My battery lasts longer :D
<1> if not do a "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
<5> nitishp, i dont even know where to open it at
<5> nitishp, i think i installed it :\
<6> is nano installed by default?
<3> heliotrope: Well, verify it first.
<0> Ng: new to ubuntu.. would almost do emerge :)
<7> why no auto mount for floppys?
<2> amphi: yes
<3> Angel_Dex: Dude, who is telling you all these fallacies?
<8> rage__, damn right it does, I cant get Linux to overheat my cpu, windows does before it even gets to login
<4> I found a ncurses based smb client awhile back.



<5> nitishp, how do i do that, in complete and utter noob talk, (2nd day with linux)
<7> nitishp >.> idk?
<4> Hysty, P4?
<3> heliotrope: http://www.linux.ie/articles/tutorials/samba.php -> That's a quick little primer.
<5> nitishp, thankyou
<8> rage__, Athlon XP 2000+
<3> heliotrope: http://samba.org/samba/docs/man/ -> There's the beast.
<8> rage__, plus its 35 degree plus weather here
<6> Ng: thanks
<9> My soundcard isnt making any sound, how do I check the drivers/settings?
<10> if a mod needs sudo and u write a script for it, where do you put he pw for sudo in the script
<10> ?
<0> Ng, not seeing xchm in Synaptec ?
<11> does anyone know how to get 5.1 surround sound working on a soundblaster live?
<3> rewt_: You don't.
<10> what do u do?
<3> rewt_: If you need to run something with sudo do it like login_prompt $ sudo <script>
<12> Heliotrope als this link will help you http://help.ubuntu.com/starterguide/C/ch07.html#sect-samba-server
<7> Ok heres a que i really got no clue about I really love using hte hosts file Buton Windows the bigger the hosts file the worse off is there anything like that in ubuntu>? i wanna make me host file major big but im scared of repocutions
<5> snorkel, thanks
<3> Angel_Dex: /etc/hosts
<10> so like this
<2> bart___: you probably need to enable the universe reponsitories then
<10> #!/bin/bash
<10> login_prompt $ sudo
<10> sudo ifup wlan0
<10> sudo modprobe ndiswrapper
<2> -n
<3> >_<
<3> rewt_: I mean at the command line.. you'd sudo <script>
<7> nitishp i know of this im asking is there any problems that may occur if i make it say 51k lines long a few MB big?
<13> rewt_: ffs, /etc/network/interfaces
<0> Ng, thanks, will keep looking :)
<10> But im not using command line
<14> monzie, no back up
<3> How are you running the script?
<10> liable, wy do you keep posting that
<13> its a file!
<10> ?
<10> i made a text file and made it executable
<14> going to try to edit it with nano now to change the simple edit i made back to normal
<10> so when I double click n it it runs
<13> rewt_: because it is *the* file that configures interfaces?
<3> rewt_: Right... so then sudo <script_you_made_executable>
<2> rewt_: I think it's trying to tell you that you can do all of your network stuff in that file
<10> It's not hwat I need though >.<
<13> rewt_: instead of making half baked scripts?
<10> My wireless button doesnt work right in linux.
<10> I can turn on my wireless card manually and the button ligths up.
<10> If I push the button to trn it off, the light goes off
<10> If I push the button again, nothing happens
<15> nobody could help me with qemu ?
<10> So Im writng a script to make it work.
<0> Ng, its installing thanks :)
<4> Do you want it to execute a script when the button is pushed?
<3> rewt_: If you want to make this script, then you could either run this as root or have ifup wlan0 && modprobe ndiswrapper which you would name "script" and then at the command line -> sudo script
<10> That way I just double click a link to do all the work
<12> Is the sticky bit perhaps a solution?
<2> Snorkel: solution to what?
<3> Angel_Dex: Why do you have 51K lines in /etc/hosts?
<10> rage__, Id like it to



<12> For running a script as root
<10> but I cant figure out how to
<2> Snorkel: nope
<2> Snorkel: the sticky bit has no effect on files
<2> (on linux)
<12> Ok. I didnt know that. Thanx
<7> nitishp like i said i like using hte hosts file i combined about 7 hosts files from the net into one
<3> Angel_Dex: What is this for?
<4> Does hotplug not pickup the card when you switch it on and off?
<10> rage, no
<3> Angel_Dex: Sounds to me like it's either a makeshift nameserver or a makeshift firewall.
<4> have you added the module into /etc/modules?
<10> well i dont know...seems to work fine when booting up until it gets to configuring networks
<7> nitishp As i know Linux is safe from viruses and malware tho i still use a hosts file to protect meself nomatter what and mostly to just keep the net looking clean and feeling safe Ease on the mind more then enything
<10> once it gets to configuring network it hang for about 2 mins then load
<4> that just executes at boot tho
<10> and the button no longer works
<11> Does anyone here have a sound blaster live?
<3> Angel_Dex: Use a firewall program of some sort then, like iptables.
<13> looking for dhcp..
<10> before I get to configuring networks i can push it on and off non stop
<16> when I "ssh my.remote.ip" and it says it isn't connectable, what am I doing wrong?
<10> i added the mod yes
<16> Do you need to unblock ports or something for ssh?
<10> the butto lights up on boot up and when it gets to configuing network the light goes off and the button no longer works?
<7> nitishp Hum I feel better using the hosts FIle is there any site you may know of about Hosts files on linux? i have only found them on windows
<4> have you read up about hotplug?
<17> !nvidia
<18> methinks nvidia is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia or http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=57368
<13> zebraFusion: no, you need to run the service, but if you have a router...
<3> Angel_Dex: Okay, the hosts file you'd edit is /etc/hosts. No, I don't know of any such site. Furthermore, I urge you to get a software firewall instaed of wasting your time on /etc/hosts
<10> rage__, I'm new to this stuff....so no I havent
<10> sorry
<16> liable: is the service running by default for Ubuntu?
<7> nitishp what time will be wasted? I find it fun
<13> zebraFusion: no
<19> zebraFusion: no, install the ssh package
<13> zebraFusion: ubuntu doesnt run any net services by default
<16> bimberi, sudo apt-get install ssh?
<19> zebraFusion: yep
<4> rewt_, have a google. You might find what you need.
<3> Angel_Dex: Clearly our definitions of "fun" vary. Have fun spending countless hours on /etc/hosts editing.
<19> zebraFusion: openssh-client is installed by default but installing ssh will bring in openssh-server
<7> nitishp Um 10 minutes max man Download the hosts files combind um with me program and replace the hosts file Simple
<10> rage__, I tried that earlier with someone in here
<10> they couldnt even figure it out
<11> ffs, why does everything have to be an epic struggle..?
<10> rowanjl, i hear ya
<2> rowanjl: what is?
<3> Coming from other distributions, I have to say that Ubuntu is easily the most noob friendly distribution out there, so if you think Ubuntu is hard.... good luck with other distributions.
<11> First I couldn't get video playback that wasn't choppy, then I spent three hours making interlacing work, and now I can't get my soundcard to work :(
<10> row didu have sound b4?
<11> I have sound, but only 2 channels...
<16> bimberi, thanks again. You've been very helpful with every question I've had. :]
<10> rowanjl, how do you know you have 2 channels?
<11> because they are the only two wich any sound comes out of
<10> rowanjl, how do I check?
<11> I have six channels, but only the front two are working
<19> zebraFusion: np, coincidence surely :)
<4> rewt_, I've never had to add anything to hotplug but i'll look into it
<10> rage__, thanks
<10> rage__, how do I check my channels?
<11> rewt_, use the mixer, select Edit > Preferences and then look for "surround" and "center"
<13> man iwconfig
<13> oh, sound..
<11> I've been searching on google for two hours now, and I've not found anything usefull
<20> anyone run 915resoulution?
<10> rowanjl, where is the mixer?
<11> double click on the speaker icon in the tray
<10> okay
<10> now what
<11> Edit > Preferences
