<0> Where do the USB gurus hang out?
<1> [Surge], got a live CD of dapper or warty around?
<2> disinterested_pe: On top of all that.. Ubuntu is absolutely free, thanks to a millionare, as stated on the website.
<0> ompaul: Unfortunately not.
<3> yeah im not saying anything bad about it sarah
<1> [Surge], thats a bug stick it into lauchpad using the dmesg and fdisk -l commands to give weight to it
<4> i have a storage drive that i cant get into its NTFS formated HDD is there a way i can get to my files without formating?
<1> [Surge], launchpad.net
<5> !tell sola6662 about ntfs
<2> sola6662: sure go for it.. I have a little more time..
<1> [Surge], I ***ume you have dsl?
<0> Dialup :D
<6> whats the link for pasting code???
<7> hi, I have installed ubuntu on my desktop system for the first time... On first boot it gives an error that HAL cannot initialize. I have tried reinstalling from synaptic, but that didn't work. I am using 5.10. Does anyone have any suggestions on what to try next?
<1> surge its freedom toaster time then
<8> !pastebin



<9> Please do not flood the channel http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ for pasting long texts it does not disrupt the channel. [webboard for Ubuntu: http://www.gnomefiles.org/app.php?soft_id=1269 : not an offical package]
<8> gleesond: or pastebin.com
<0> ompaul: Ok but I'll try bug some USB guys first. Thanks,
<1> [Surge], in general they will insist on you putting it in launchpad first
<10> facugaich: there are a bunch of directories named rc0.d , rc1.d etc in /etc/ sticking stuff there causes them to run at the corresponding runlevel
<0> ompaul: What is launchpad?
<11> facugaich: what command did you want to run?
<1> [Surge], launchpad.net a simple web interface for bug reporting
<0> Ah ok
<0> Thanks
<12> [Surge], and it's also for traslations
<3> i guess there is no plugins for rpm in synaptic
<3> firefox rpm
<7> anyone have any idea on what to do about HAL not initializing on first boot?
<3> mplayer plug-ins
<1> !rpm
<9> rpm is, like, totally, the Redhat Package Management file. Very similar to Debian's DEB files, but require alien to install. ask me about !alien
<1> !alien
<9> from memory, alien is a program to convert RPMs to DEBs. Its use is discouraged, as it could create serious problems. Website: http://www.kitenet.net/programs/alien/
<10> disinterested_pe: it might be in the restriced or multiverse respoistories
<1> disinterested_pe, ^^^ look back a couple of lines
<3> ok
<3> ty i will trash them
<2> sola6662: Well, what OS
<1> disinterested_pe, rpms are bad for Ubuntu in general you can get it all in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
<7> no one has any ideas on what to do when HAL wont' start on a clean install? this would seem like a not-so-good bug to me..
<13> hey does somebody here have xgl properly installed and can support me? i've already tried #ubuntu-xgl but nobody's answering
<3> what about alien lol
<14> dou213: #ubuntu+1 perhaps
<13> ok
<1> disinterested_pe, it will more than likely cause you pain there are lots of things you can do without going near that space
<3> ok om
<3> ive trashed the files anyhow
<3> i was just trying to get more streamlink stations to work
<3> out of all the ones i had on windows only one will work on this
<2> sola6662: Here is a link.. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=77367
<15> hi all
<1> !ntfs
<9> ntfs is the filesystem used in Windows NT and newer; to automatically mount your NTFS partition: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions there is no write support for ntfs that is safe.
<16> "mounting local filesystem failed" when i boot ubuntu
<16> any ideas?
<3> can someone with breezy also go to a link and see if the stream will work
<1> sola6662, ^^ back up a couple of lines
<17> hi ppl
<17> good nite
<18> I'm having trouble setting up a new monitor. It's a BenQ 202W, and it should be running at 1680x1050.
<1> !resolution
<9> somebody said resolution was at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto
<1> kar-tar, ^^
<19> yeah
<18> mmmk
<19> u must re-config xorg
<17> I want to install a tar.bz2 program, any help
<10> mish4: I get that as well and I got it down to my USB flash disk, apparently it was plugged in when I installed the system and it attempts to mount it even if it isn't there.
<16> anyway to figure out whats cauising the error?
<19> yeah tar xvjf program.tar.bz2
<19> =]
<3> well im going to take my green iguana out side for a walk
<17> shadowman, thanx
<19> n/p
<2> Most unix/ Linux systems uses formatting similar to FAT32, am I correct? Like MS Dos.



<1> sarah, no
<15> can someone help me, i have connection problem with xp on vmware
<20> okay, I figure that dvdrecord is just the tool I need to write a DVD-R. Except it seems to need an iso as input. no problem, I write an iso. Except that the filesystem won't let it get over 2GB. so how can I write an iso?
<19> sarah: nope linuxes uses ext3 filesystem
<19> fat32 is a win32 fs
<14> shadowman: amongst others
<1> sarah, totally different style of system, most people use a journalled fs called EXT3 then there are several others
<19> yeah there's few fs's
<8> in /etc/network/interfaces should the line read: gatewaydev=ppp0 _or_ gatewaydev ppp0 ?????
<21> hey guys
<19> yo
<19> :D
<21> I'm having a problem with Audacity
<2> Of course, but it is certainally not like Win FTFS
<21> wait
<21> wtf
<21> it all of a sudden works
<21> odd
<14> Rug: you shouldn't need anything in interfaces for ppp0, the pppd up scripts should set the default gw
<19> lol
<8> amphi: this is on a firewall (FYI)
<19> damn i ate too much :/
<14> Rug: when ppp0 comes up, the default route should be set automagically
<18> annoying. dpkg reconfigure crashes, but ddcprobe gets all the specs right
<22> hey uall
<19> yo jvai
<8> ack
<22> dapZ SHADOW
<19> dapZ?
<8> amphi: that wasn't the answer I was hoping for. =)
<19> lol
<19> i didnt get it :P
<14> Rug: heh - I'm not aware of a 'gatewaydev' option in interfaces in any case
<17> shadowman, man, I get that....checking for C++ compiler default output file name... configure: error: C++ compiler cannot create executables
<8> amphi: it does make a difference.
<19> u must install c++ package for gcc
<8> because if I set it wrong, then things go weird
<23> are jonatan or ic56 still here?
<11> facugaich: yes
<19> damn i dont remeber what this package is called
<19> hmmmm...
<23> ic56, I want to load a modules, run a command related to it and finnaly an "ifconfig"
<19> lol ifconfig works in ubuntu?
<14> Rug: here, the pppd defaultroute option is in /etc/peers/$PROVIDER
<14> Rug: er, /etc/ppp/peers/$PROVIDER
<8> is that setup by using pppoeconf ?
<2> Getting NTFS files to Linux, if important could be transferred from a Win. machine to cd then to Linux. Safest way. Mounting a drive like that, If important data, is not a good idea..
<11> facugaich: ok. how much do you know about runlevels and the /etc/init.d directory?
<20> is there some way to use cdrecord without creating an image first?
<19> sarah: yeah NTFS dont working propelry on linux
<14> Rug: oh, pppoe? that may be different; this was setup by pppconfig
<8> are you on cable or DSL?
<23> ic56, I read some man page about a script to add others scripts to rc*.d, don't remember its name though
<19> u can just read, and if u want to write u can loose all ur data
<19> it sux thought
<23> ic56, so, not much
<2> Yes, I have transferred many files including picture files with cd transfer, never will affect that drive.
<14> Rug: both dialup and dsl peers files use the same pppd defaultroute option
<19> :)
<11> facugaich: interesting. I didn't know there was such a tool. I should look into it. Anyway, hang on a couple minutes. I have a somewhat canned response to your Q.
<14> Rug: the only time I used a cable modem, I just plugged in the the ethernet and ran dhclient
<23> ic56, thank you, I'll wait
<19> amphi: yeah this is the easiest way
<24> is there any way to play Windows Media DRM files in ubuntu?
<19> DRM?
<19> wtf is that?
<8> amphi: Did anybody ever tell you; that you are an awesome source of ulcers?
<14> Rug: heh
<24> shadowman: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Media_DRM
<19> k
<8> ack this is annoying...
<8> thanks for your help
<23> Digital Rights Management?
<2> Remember experience is usually by doing, have a nice one, hope to return some time.. Well back to my Windows 2000 system.. :)
