Comments:
<0> ...help meee..*desperate*
<1> StucKman: (permission to write to that dir that is)
<2> Exxpert, sudo
<3> i want to get E17
<4> mivecz: "sudo apt-cache search <keywords>" will let you look for programs, "sudo apt-cache show <packagename>" will show the info about a program, and "sudo aptitude install <packagename>" will install it
<2> oh sorry mistell
<4> mivecz: for kde, for example, you need to install kubuntu-desktop
<5> lisi: hmm, the .torrenyt file has info of files that it ``contains''. sometimes the original creator of the .torrent file precompresses the contents in a fashion of what you got. I don' t get why they do that.
<6> Seveas, it has a folder in a folder thoe
<4> mivecz: for xfce, i don't know really, but i suppose it will be called xfce or xfce4. try "apt-cache search xfce"
<3> FOr enlighment?
<2> SonicYooth, u need to be root
<0> thegladiator: Cant see anythig on screen,, black and dead..:-/
<2> !zdesktop
<4> mivecz: i don't know. perhaps try "apt-cache search enlightment"
<7> What? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, thegladiator
<2> !xdesktop
<7> My cat's name is Mittens! Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, thegladiator
<8> GTX, then read the ftp manpage ;)
<1> thegladiator: Is that something I can do from command prompt or do i need to log out and back in again?
<2> there is xdesktop meta pakacge for sfce I guess
<5> SonicYooth: yes, you nees root perms for storing them in /usr/local/bin. is not the case in the last two paths I mentioned, but you still would need to setup PATH envvar properly if you use them
<0> !xdesktop
<9> mivecz: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=79155&highlight=enlightenment
<3> ubuntu breeze have cd to fix some bugs?
<10> StuckmanL: thanks, I'm going to download a different one and hope it works better
<2> SonicYooth, u can use sudo command or su --
<9> thegladiator: please don't do that
<4> Exxpert, thegladiator: that's xubuntu-desktop
<5> mivecz: you mean installer bugs?
<1> thegladiator: gotcha. thanks!
<2> SonicYooth, sudo xxx with ask for pwd...
<3> yes
<2> nalioth, sorry which one ?
<11> thegladiator, do you mean xubuntu-desktop?
<5> mivecz: I think not
<0> thanks..
<9> thegladiator: there is no "su" for root in *buntu
<1> StucKman: thanks also :)
<2> yeah xubuntu-desktop top sorry
<2> oh sorry
<3> and it works...but no breezy packaged build yet... what is mean that?
<2> though swithch user mode is also supported as in other OS
<12> LjL, that worked nicely thx
<4> mivecz: bugfixes have their specific repository. use "sudo apt-get update; sudo aptitude dist-upgrade" regularly to get the latest fixes
<0> is there a way to start ubuntu in consolemode?
<9> thegladiator: this is not "other OS", it runs a bit differently
<9> ubotu: tell Exxpert about bum
<11> how do I turn off ctrl-alt-+ and ctrl-alt--?
<2> correct
<4> mivecz: also, you should probably enable the universe and multiverse repositories, to go from about 4000 installable programs to about 17000. the bot will tell you how
<3> ok
<13> where can i find thermal info on my cpu?
<4> mivecz: i think Ubuntu's Gnome also has an automatic updater that will save you the trouble of the above-mentioned "dist-upgrade" thing. i don't use gnome, so i don't know how that works
<4> stephelton: install "lm-sensors"
<4> stephelton: then, use apt-cache to search for "sensors" if you want a GUI program, there are a few
<0> nalioth: get the point,, but i cant see anything,, blank screen.. monitors blank.. need to start in consolemode to change my x-server settings..:-(

<4> DjDarkman: the site itself is up
<4> dentist: yep
<12> yeah i am just trying that now
<0> nalioth: doesent work..:-C is there not a way to start directly into commandmode?
<18> hmmm LjL then why i get this:
<18> W: Couldn't stat source package list http://ro.archive.ubuntu.com breezy-backports/main Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/ro.archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_breezy-backports_main_binary-i386_Packages) - stat (2 No such file or directory)
<4> Exxpert: what's the problem, you have a blank screen?
<4> DjDarkman: i said the *site* is up, but perhaps the ubuntu mirror is currently under manteinance or something...
<9> Exxpert: yes, read the bots msg re BUM
<18> LjL: are there other mirrors?
<5> DjDarkman: lots, like, deb archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu etc etc
<4> DjDarkman: of course, just change "ro." into the acronym for another country
<4> DjDarkman: "it." was working up to some minutes ago
<18> ok LjL 10x 4 the help
<20> I need a windows utility to make an ubuntu boot floppy?
<0> LjL: The problem is that i installed ubuntu and it looks good,, the little "ubuntu"logo comes up and things starts to load up.. but then when its gonna start x the monitor flicks a pair of times and then ends up black.. sorry to bother you guys..:-C
<21> i finally got the ubuntu network install working from this: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Installation/WindowsServerNetboot?highlight=%28installation%29 but when configuring my apt get sources, i selected the wrong one, is there a way to change the source?
<5> Silivrenion: there's rawrite, but, can't you use the boot cd's?
<20> no, the controller's damaged
<9> ubotu: tell Exxpert abotu fixres
<9> ubotu: tell Exxpert about fixres
<20> it boots only knoppix-std for some odd reason
<4> Exxpert: well, i would tell you to p*** "init=/bin/sh" to the kernel when you boot, to go to single-user text mode... but i'm not sure how that behaves with Ubuntu's lack of a root p***word
<20> all others it gives an error
<13> LjL: i have no x installed. i was hoping there was something in /proc i coult cat
<20> i have a usb floppy drive i want to use to try to boot the machine
<5> Silivrenion: then look for rawrite or rawrite2
<20> ok
<5> Silivrenion: do you have the floppy images?
<6> Guy's Im using an eggdrop on ubuntu server, and it says it boots up etc, but it doesnt connect however when I add -n to see what its doing it does! any ideas?
<20> StucKman :: no
<0> isent there a way to choose textlogin in grub or something??
<22> !mp3
<7> it has been said that mp3 is a non-free format. To enable mp3 capability, read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
<9> Exxpert: BUM will allow you any login options you like
<8> !find akode
<7> Ubuntu Package Listing of 'akode' (2 shown): akode ;; akode-mpeg.
<8> !info akode-mpeg
<7> akode-mpeg: (akode mpeg plugin), section universe/sound, is optional. Version: 4:3.4.3-0ubuntu1 (breezy), Packaged size: 24 kB, Installed size: 92 kB
<5> Silivrenion: I *guess* they are in the cd's
<0> nalioth: but HOW to install bum without seeing something??
<21> is there a way to change my apt get source during setup?
<0> nalioth: my screen is blank!
<13> is there anything in /proc i can cat to see my cpu / northbridge temp? preferably something supplied with the default kernel
<9> Exxpert: open a terminal and type "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" and choose the vesa driver
<5> Exxpert: try adding ``single'' to the kernel params in grub
<5> stephelton: look fot acpi
<21> i am using network setup and it is stalled at the installing packages screen, how can i fix?
<13> StucKman: i couldn't find anything under acpi...
<4> stephelton: then just install lm-sensors
<4> stephelton: there is also sensord if you want something that periodically monitors and logs
<4> Exxpert: hm, i think there's recovery mode or something in the grub menu? not sure
<4> Exxpert: but init=/bin/sh *is* the standard way to go into "recovery mode", in other distributions
<5> stephelton: then you'll need the sensors
<5> sorry, goota go
<13> StucKman: thats what i was afraid of. thx
<0> LjL: there is a recoverymode,, ends up with the same thing..
<23> stephelton: i really think you will need lm-sensors. what's the big deal with installing it anyway? it's a small and unobtrusive package
