<0> Hey, im on a laptop. the mouse pad moves my mouse to fast.... I have tried to change the mouse speed in the mouse setting in preferences. but the speed is unaffeced. How can i change the mouse pad speed of the mouse????
<1> lol
<2> when im using the guided partitioning option - tells me min. is 512mb max is 20.2gb - by default the size that it wanted to resize my partition to was 10.2gb - but even that failed
<3> Blis***: hm, I'm scratching my head as to why this behavior is a feature:
<3> wchow@milhouse:~$ cd temp/SYM
<3> wchow@milhouse:~/temp/SYM$ which pwd
<3> /bin/pwd
<3> wchow@milhouse:~/temp/SYM$ pwd
<3> /home/wchow/temp/SYM
<3> wchow@milhouse:~/temp/SYM$ /bin/pwd
<3> /home/wchow/temp/DIR
<3> wchow@milhouse:~/temp/SYM$
<3> er
<3> sorry about that paste
<4> mcdonaldsguy don't paste in here
<5> mcdonaldsguy: thats exactly how it should be...
<6> green_earz: hmm. well I still don't see why it won't recognize the MD device
<5> mcdonaldsguy: try this: 'type pwd; type /bin/pwd'
<7> iNiku: the problems where soming to do with i think called the init ram image ?
<2> anyone know the minimum size of space needed for an ubuntu installation using amd64 dapper drake?
<3> ah I see
<3> ok
<0> Hey, im on a laptop. the mouse pad moves my mouse to fast.... I have tried to change the mouse speed in the mouse setting in preferences. but the speed is unaffeced. How can i change the mouse pad speed of the mouse?
<5> mcdonaldsguy: and ask yourself: ''why do 'dirs' and 'pwd' always agree?'
<8> GoLoGo: hmmm, that seems odd. I used the manual partition tho, doesn't really know how the guided one works
<2> the manual partition doesnt work for me either, it does not do anything....
<9> When i run Rhythmbox it crashes and spits out this messag Attempt to remove filter function 0xb7f42721 user data 0x832c380, but no such filter has been added
<10> how do I reinstall breezy?
<11> Hi! can I use Gnome Pilot Settings to connect the mobile with IR?
<7> iNiku: the installer builds a kernel md friendly ram image
<8> what do you mean? Does it give you an error?
<5> mcdonaldsguy: now, to enlighten you further, do this: 'mkdir /tmp/x; cd /tmp/x; rmdir /tmp/x; pwd; /bin/pwd'
<10> i have lots of personal stuff.
<9> Yes it gives me an error and it says "restart" "close" "inform devolopers"
<12> kbrooks, is home on another paritition?
<10> nickrud: no :(
<12> kbrooks, cdwritin' time
<8> GoLoGo: what exactly do you mean when you say that the manual partitioner doesn't do anything? It normally doesn't try to repartition the disk until after you have told it all the changes you want and asked it to go to the next step.
<6> green_earz: but that shouldn't make a difference if I have the MD stuff compiled in? it does try to autodetect RAID arrays but doesn't find anything... and if I specify it on the kernel command line, it fails
<10> nickrud: no cds here.
<11> Which is the command I must use to acrivate the IRda?
<5> mcdonaldsguy: please also summarize your deductions here after the latest experiments...
<6> green_earz: do you happen to know what exactly 2.6 does differently when it comes to MD devices?
<2> alright im going to experiment some more... then i will come back with my findings, thanks jonatan
<13> acke: xset perhaps
<8> GoLoGo: no problem, tho I'm not sure exactly what you meant
<3> Blis***: I'm guessing that since dirs and pwd are shell builtins, it's returning what the shell thinks my current directory is
<2> well the thing is i choose the size i want manually for the hardrive, then i click on the apply changes on the bottom
<2> and it doesnt do anything
<3> but that /bin/pwd does something else..
<5> mcdonaldsguy: thats mostly correct... But incomplete
<14> how do i use nvidia drivers with livecd?
<15> !update
<8> GoLoGo: what does it do when you try to proceed to the next step of teh installation ?
<16> redguy: Did you get hit by a windmill? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
<3> I've sort of seen behavior like that before with the emacs shell.. sometimes it gets confused as to which directory I'm actually in
<17> where is a good place to get free widescreen wallpaper?
<2> nothing
<15> !upgrade
<2> just stays on the same screen
<6> in fact, it won't even boot if I specify one of the mirror halves directly as the root device
<3> Blis***: but I don't know the mechanism that /bin/pwd is using
<5> mcdonaldsguy: the shell keeps a stack of directory _names_. But '/bin/pwd' will traverse the actual filesystem using '..' to find out what the current directory is,
<8> GoLoGo: ok that is /really/ weird
<3> Blis***: ah I see
<14> shutup, ubotu
<10> hmm.
<5> mcdonaldsguy: try this: 'strace -e trace=file /bin/pwd'
<14> now, how do i boot my livecd using my nvidia geforce 6100?
<7> iNiku : so you build the 2.4 and all ok but when you build 2.6 the kernel fails. do you use make oldconfig before the compile. there may be a small eliment missing
<3> Blis***: but in the case of opening up a new tab... why would it be preferable to not use what the shell thinks?
<8> GoLoGo: anyway, if you just have 20Gb I'd suggest you get another HD.
<14> Hello?
<15> does update manager do anything more than sed 's/breezy/dapper/g' /etc/apt/sources.list > /etc/apt/sources.list && apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade ?
<14> How do i boot my livecd using my nvidia geforce 610
<2> i do have another hardrive its a 200gb
<2> but its a slave
<8> Oh
<14> And I have no floppy drive
<12> kbrooks, maybe you could do something fancy with a live cd and rsizing & parititions, but I'd borrow a hard drive someone
<18> okay, if I've "mounted" a network share with nautilus, is there some way to access it from the commandline?
<14> any help?
<19> why does linux need to be root when you mount a network share or external USB disk???
<20> argh
<2> if i made space on my 200gb hd, would i still be able to do dual boot even if its slave?
<20> still no desktop
<21> Some_Person: put it in your CD drive and reboot
<10> nickrud: i have 2 HDs
<8> GoLoGo: thats ok, the master/slave thing just deals with how the harddrives are connected, you should be able to boot from it anyway
<22> ranpha: because you've got it misconfigured?
<21> ranpha: it doesn't, set up fstab with user options
<23> hello
<23> i need help
<2> what do you suggest i do, if i think my partition table is damage for my 200gb hd?
<12> kbrooks, there you go then. make a partition on the second drive, move everything there you want to save. Then repartition the first & install
<23> does any one know how to burn A CD+G
<5> mcdonaldsguy: when you open a new tab presumably the shell initializes itself by using '..' traversal. The stack of directory names in one shell cannot be exported to another shell (or perhaps it can, but it is not done usually)
<8> GoLoGo: basically the master/slave configuration is there so that you can use a single cable for both harddrives.
<7> iNiku : by the way i run a 2.6 raid 1 from a installer build so the 2.6 is ok with md
<20> hmm 128MB ram
<2> on ubuntu it tells me i have 4, when i only have 2 on windows....
<14> Hello?
<20> :D
<14> Anyone here to help ME?
<20> Is 128MB not enough, then?
<21> lol Vixus!
<19> Misconfigured??? it's a standaard ubuntu install. and how can i modified this?
<20> XD
<24> Some_Person: not unless you ask a question
<21> To run the live CD?
<25> vixus u get my pm
<10> nickrud: uh, never mind :P
<3> Blis***: but the behavior when I start xterm is the opposite
<20> mjcs: yeah
<8> GoLoGo: that is probably the number of partitions, as opposed to the number of harddrives
<20> sola6662: No
<21> i think its the bare minimum
<25> oh
<8> GoLoGo: do you have separate partitions for swap maybe ?
<26> tred
<21> aka. not enough
<25> i wanted to know how can i get compiz?
<6> green_earz: I have a feeling it has something to do with the fact that this MD was created under 2.4
<2> i will just try once more....
<2> thanks
<24> !tell sola6662 about xgl
<5> mcdonaldsguy: depends on which mode the shell is in when it starts, and how it is invoked.
<20> mjcs: Is it enough to run Ubuntu natively then?
<27> sola6662: It's in dapper
<25> hmmm
<28> 128mb is enough ram to run.. but ram is cheap.. 256 is better
<21> Vixus: should be, you might want to look at Xubuntu if you want a decent performance though
<20> I've got a laptop
<27> sola6662: dapper universe, to be more specific
<25> so in order to get compiz i need to get dapper right?
<20> mjcs: I just want a good OS for my laptop, I've got an old clogged copy of windows 2000.
<29> sola6662: or update from breezy to dapper
<21> I have 512mb ram chips for a laptop spare..
<24> sola6662: anything else would be a pain
<27> sola6662: No, you just need that one package.
<25> oh i seen
<12> Vixus, you might like xubuntu better, it has a smaller footprint
<21> Vixus: have a look at xubuntu then, www.xubuntu.org its just ubuntu with xfce
<30> how to upgrade from breezy to dapper please splain
<20> Maybe I should just buy a new laptop. :P
<21> lol or that!
<24> !tell floydwil1e about upgrade
<31> ya, they'll hav a ubuntu for every wm
<27> sola6662: Happily, I don't think it has any dapper depends, so you can just dload the deb and then dpkg -i it.
