Comments:

<0> Can you guys tell me something-else that uses ncurses and comes with ubuntu by default, so I can check if that works?
<0> maybe it's only aptitude that can't display high-characts
<1> jighead/ but -23 's volatile dir is not empty already
<2> zquirm, nano
<3> crash9877: in the connect to dialog try ssh://nameofserver.domain.com ... that's the only thing that I wish it could do
<4> This wireless driver is asking me for "root dir of external pcmcia" - where might that be?
<5> MrKeuner, what does uname -r tell you?
<6> have any of u ever changed your hard disk from slave to master ?
<6> does it affect linux?
<1> jighead/ 2.6.15-23-686
<2> jan1313, yes
<2> jan1313, you have to change the /etc/fstab
<5> MrKeuner, and the fglrx isn't under volatile?
<1> jighead/ nope
<0> aptitude is covered in these corrupted characters
<7> is there a file that keeps track of updates that have been installed?



<3> kmilo: what if the disk has a label as in e2lable ?
<3> kmilo: and fstab points to that label?
<8> I need installing Ubuntu...
<9> downloading alternate ubuntu and order 10 cd's
<6> ha ha nbody listens to me
<4> Any ideas on the "root dir of external pcmcia"?
<2> alpha255, the labels doesn't matters the device name is the important
<0> I have to hit ^L every few seconds for aptitude to be usable
<8> how come "ntfsresize" double it when you trying to resize
<10> how can i mount a remote ftp server to my local file system?
<0> since it leaves characters over
<0> is there any way to fix?
<9> didnt like kubuntu at alllll
<0> nano works fine
<11> jan1313: yes, it does affect linux. the drive link will change from (probably) /dev/hda to (probably) /dev/hdb. you'll need to change your fstab, your grub's menu.lst and possibly other files
<1> jighead/ I know that it was working before kernel update because I installed google earth just fine. but after the kernel update It stopped using 3d accel. I installed and reinstalled some of these packages I may have hurt the system in some way?
<12> HOLY SHEEP ****
<11> !language
<13> Please watch your language. We try to be nice and help but some of us don't like to see such things on our screen.
<3> kmilo: doh? hda vs hdb.. should have thought before typing
<6> LjL thanks for reply
<3> my bad
<6> is fstab and grub menue the only thing which I should change?
<6> everything else would be okay?
<12> i was testing something sorry
<8> Any1 is available to help me?
<11> jan1313: they're the only ones i can think of right now.
<14> ic56: i just got done playing in the console. i logged out of the gui to effectively freeze my home directory, logged in a terminal, went sudo su and copied everything again just to be sure nothing had changed, rm -rf'd home, mkdir home, and mounted
<11> jan1313: i definitely can't ***ure they're the *only* ones.
<6> aha
<6> is there anybody who has Tried it out ?
<15> forevernoob: my easy ubuntu install has frozen on configuring flashplugin-nonfree. what do i do?
<8> i stuck in Live CD ...
<5> MrKeuner, have you reinstalled the restricted modules, you may want to mark them for complete removal and then install them again
<14> is there a more slick way to remove everything in a folder, recursively, without deleting the folder then remaking it?
<4> This wireless driver is asking me for "root dir of external pcmcia" - where might that be?
<6> another question is there any GEDIT for Windows ? I want to edit my /etc/fstab file .... Notepad shows it so ugly
<0> aptitude is almost unusable
<4> hehe, sorry to spam
<11> jan1313: i have. i've changed those two files, and it worked, except that everytime i upgraded my kernel, it insisted turning menu.lst back to /dev/hda. other than that, everything *seemed* to work fine. however, i *might* have changed some other files that i don't remember changing right now
<7> periodically, the update manager gives me a list of files that need to be updated...I was wondering if Ubuntu maintained any kind of file that kept track of the various updates that had been installed?
<0> how am I going to administer this box remotely?
<5> ToHellWithGA, rm -rf /foldertokeep/*
<0> this is retarded!
<4> jan1313, try another lite editor like metapad
<14> thank you jighead
<11> jan1313: try using wordpad, if the problem is that notepad doesn't show newlines
<3> zquirm: give it some time... it does take a while to get use to
<1> jighead yes I did, Actually I have also downloaded ati's binary file created deb.s from it and removed it with forcing some warnings actually.
<0> alpha255: read what I said
<16> how do i do the equivalent to CHKDSK - i have reason to believe my fs needs fixing
<17> can wine run AIM?
<18> : cool. Before rm -rf, you might have also verified the copy with something like: cd /home; find . -type f -print |xargs -i {} /temporary/{}
<11> _david: man fsck
<6> aha thanks
<17> i dont like GAIM
<4> UKMatt, yes
<1> jighead/ just one warning relating /usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2
<19> hi
<17> jme, how?



<4> well, you need to get wine running, and then install AIM...
<15> my easy ubuntu install has frozen on configuring flashplugin-nonfree. what do i do?
<19> I want an applet for the weather, i've installed kweather but is not working properly, I have dapper
<4> just like any program on WINE
<0> alpha255: How do you expect me to get used to a bunch of unicode characters everywhere?
<0> the screen is all corrupted
<16> ljl: i read the entry on fsck - but it says not to run fsck on a mounted file system... how do i get access to my filesystem without Linux being booted?
<4> but it can be a little tricky
<0> i cant see what I am doing
<17> jme, i don't know how to run wine..
<9> can i put the grub loader on my usb key
<18> ToHellWithGA: cool. Before rm -rf, you might have also verified the copy with something like: cd /home
<18> find . -type f -print |xargs -i {} /temporary/{}
<9> actually
<4> UKMatt, get it via synaptic and find an online walkthrough
<5> MrKeuner, man, I went through this at work, and I forget what I had to do to get rid of all of the ati stuff and get the ubuntu version going again
<0> however, no other apps are doing this
<0> ONLY aptitude
<9> where is the best place to put the boot loader?
<11> _david: you can still run it in read-only mode. it will detect but not correct errors, if any. otherwise, you should boot into recovery mode, and remount as read-only
<4> Any ideas on the "root dir of external pcmcia"?
<19> I want an applet for the weather, i've installed kweather but is not working properly, I have dapper
<0> BitchX ansi and nano looks perfect.
<1> jighead/ strange reinstalling seems brought my fglrx.ko
<16> duh.... i remember now... thanks LjL
<16> byeeeeee
<20> doh, one reason my fgl_glxgears score was low is because I'm converting video right now. lol
<8> !help
<14> ic56: i don't like to live dangerously. i'll remember that next time. thanks
<5> MrKeuner, cool, lsmod it and see what happens!
<11> _david: or perhaps just boot from a live cd. or, third option, set the filesystem's "dirty" flag, so that it'll be checked at next reboot. except i don't remember how to set that flag
<18> ToHellWithGA: yw!
<5> zquirm, have you tried `reset`
<21> how goes it in windows land today?
<9> where is the best place to put the bootloader
<1> it is not instaled in kernel yet I'll modprobe
<0> jighead: that doesn't matter.
<9> shuld i put it into its own partition/
<1> jighead/ it is not instaled in kernel yet I'll modprobe
<8> LjL: can you help me?
<0> jighead: Like I said, I tried ansi, linux, vt100
<17> can someone help me run wine
<3> nomad111: mbr works for me
<0> "reset" is irrelevent since I had to reconnect each time
<11> Jonatha1: perhaps, but i think i've missed your question
<1> jighead/ looks installed in kernel without problems I'll restart gdm
<22> There was a website that allowed you to generate a sources.list where is it?
<11> !easysource
<13> For an easy to use custom sources.list creator, visit http://ubuntulinux.nl/source-o-matic
<23> detectiveinspekt, http://www.ubuntulinux.nl/source-o-matic
<21> sorry about the windows quetion, wrong channel
<0> if I can't get aptitude working I'm going to have to ditch ubuntu
<9> alpha255, yes but wat if i want to format my linux partition later on wouldnt that destroy the mbr like i wont be able to boot to windows for example
<21> how goes it in ubuntu world today?
<6> today something strange happened to my CD Writer in ubuntu... it was writing a CD then It hanged .... I had to restart , now whenver i put CD in my CD writer i hear strange sounds...and it doenst read the CD ...[even in windows] is it a physicial problem or a software problem ?
<22> thanks
<8> LjL: I can't install Ubtuntu since ntfsresize putting free space into almost full
<0> and use dselect instead
<0> which works.
<4> shoot, no one know about "root dir of external pcmcia"?
<5> zquirm, are your LANG, LC, and LC_ALL variables set?
<11> Jonatha1: you should probably try defragging your NTFS partition, from windows
<21> jan1313, probably a hardware problem
<4> oh well, I'll try elsewhere
<8> defrag?
<5> zquirm, perl gets cranky about those sometimes
<0> jighead: checking
<3> png: thnx! :)
<11> Jonatha1: yes. if i recall correctly, let's see.... "my computer", right click on the drive, "tools", "defragment drive". but i haven't used windows for some time
<15> my easy ubuntu install has frozen/stalled on installation. what do i do?
<8> i have go back to Windows then use Disk Defrag?
<11> Jonatha1: note that defragmentation can take a while, depending on the size and contents of your HD.
<11> Jonatha1: yes, i think that's the trick
<21> Jonatha1, run disk cleanup first
