<0> is there firefox 1.5 packages built for ubuntu?
<1> silvio: you are aware that xmms is available precompiled in the repositories?
<2> !firefox1.5
<3> You can use firefox 1.5 by following this wiki page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion
<4> its pretty much the same kind of player too, I'm using it righ now
<5> ilba7r: I know. I have used it on slackware before and it worked.
<6> TecSoft: exact error message?
<7> TecSoft, did you create the alias sudo ndiswrapper -m
<5> ilba7r: yes
<8> silvio: let me give a generic example: on Debian linux, the list of users who are allowed to log in to the computer, that list is stored in /etc/p***wd. However, in, lets say, Red Hat linux, it may or may not be stored in a different place. So that all processes that need to know where the list of users is can find it, a setting is created by giving the setting a name, which all of those processes have to be programmed specifically to
<8> know, and, one each computer, it's value is configured to the correct value
<9> HappyFool: No, I don't understand how to install programs on ubuntu. I always try to compile and get a bunch of errors, like the one posted. Sometimes it works, but most of the time it doesn't :)
<10> wow.. defragging... most fragged file... 4000 fragments
<7> TecSoft, did you compile the ndiswrapper or got it from the repos
<5> dabaR: <lib/kernel/2.6xxx/modules/net/ndiswrapper/something.ko> permission denied
<6> silvio: you can try http://dabar.selfip.org/synaptic.html



<5> ilba7r: I did make deb
<9> david_m_e: thx for that explanation :) makes sense
<7> TecSoft, for making the deb follow that for ubnuntu follow different rules than debian https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SetupNdiswrapperHowto
<5> ilba7r: I followed that.
<7> TecSoft, and i installed the one in the repos and it worked fine
<8> silvio: in your situation, GLIB needs to know where PREFIX is... so, an environment variable (which GLIB already knows to look for) is ***igned a value (the location on the hard disk) where PREFIX is located
<11> hey if one is running microsoft exchange server is there an equivalent for ubuntu?
<11> im trying to win over this sysadmin atm..
<12> can anybody help me? some discs are mounting and some are't. they're ALL DVD MOVIES.
<11> lysis, probably some have copywrite on em
<11> or are region locked?
<7> TecSoft, i have no idea why you can not insert it using modprobe
<13> how do i get ubuntu to play mp3s?
<12> starscalling, they're in proper region, i've got all non-free dvd codecs installed . . . or at least i believe i do.
<14> starscalling: you could install open-xchange maybe
<5> ilba7r: I do not know either.
<12> they won't even mount to show me files though.
<4> ubotu tell buggzero about restricted formats
<8> silvio: more generically, environment variables are a quick-and-dirty way for different processes to communicate with each other. They are frequently used as afterthoughts or when going to the trouble to put the information to be communicated into a file is considered too much trouble
<4> have fun
<7> TecSoft, try uninstalling it and installing the one from the repos. it will work fine
<11> lysis, ive got no clue then :/ witless open-xchange?
<11> have u run that at all by chance?
<15> to order cd at https://shipit.ubuntu.com after succesfull login?
<12> starscalling, i have no idea what that is.
<8> happyfool: i have to leave... do u think u can finish with Silvio?
<16> My firefox wants to open .php files in an editor instead of just open the page as normally. Any ideas where to set it straight again?
<5> ilba7r: How do I do that?
<15> howto?
<11> lysis, two statements on one line sorry
<9> david_m_e: thank you for the information, im slowly understanding this whole thing :)
<12> NOW it's opening them in totem, playing a second or a few seconds and then it's popping up an error saying "Totem could not play file:///dev/scd0'.
<8> silvio : yw
<12> starscalling, what is "witless open-xchange"
<15> howto to order cd at https://shipit.ubuntu.com after succesfull login?
<17> what is the best way to find browse and listen to podcasts in ubuntu?
<11> witless, <<-- person
<18> join #python
<11> open-xchange == app
<1> silvio: i recommend using Synaptic (Settings -> System -> Synaptic, i think). It's not too difficult. You just need to tell Synaptic to download software from the internet, and you can easily install xmms
<11> lol
<7> TecSoft, sudo modprobe -r ndiswrapper
<11> up to the :/ was to you lysis
<11> so lets try again
<5> ilba7r: That removes modprobe for ndiswrapper?
<11> if you have all the codecs in i dont know what it could be :/
<12> starscalling, sorry.
<1> david_m_e: i think once he has synaptic setup, everything will be fine
<11> bah its nbd
<7> TecSoft, yes and uninstall the package and install the one from the repos
<5> ilba7r: And then should I do modprobe ndiswrapper. That is
<19> Help setting up a LAN printer needed
<5> ilba7r: How do I uninstall ndiswrapper and install the one from repos?
<20> hi. I have a problem with my dpi settings. Gnome says "96" but xdpyinfo | grep resolution says 81x81
<9> HappyFool: yeah I thought of that being the easiest way, I'm going to do this. I'm just trying to get to know linux a bit better because I'm trying to get rid of windows :))
<19> TecSoft: sudo apt-get remove ndiswrapper
<7> TecSoft, dpkg purge ndiswrapper
<19> TecSoft: sudo apt-get install ndiswrapper
<7> TecSoft, than sudo apt-get install ndiswrapper
<19> Help setting up a LAN printer needed
<7> TecSoft, than sudo apt-get install ndiswrapper-util



<1> silvio: please ask any further questions you may have. it might be better to have more general (i.e., 'non-problem') discussions in #ubuntu-offtopic

<29> hi guys - sorry another newbie to ubuntu (x86-64) - can anyone recommend a good multimedia app that will run on Ubuntu 5.10 [64]?
<22> mplayer and vlc
<1> buggzero: i'd recommend not compiling; it should work fine straight from the repos
<18> jarrod_, mplayer is best movies
<18> and xmms or amarok for audio
<22> xmms with lots of plugins avaliable
<29> do you have to compile mplayer on your own or do they have binaries?
<30> jarrod_: my choices are videolan client (vlc) and gxine
<22> it got binaries but they got problems it is better to compile
<18> jarrod_, you can install using synaptic
<28> http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=17529343
<28> I cant be arsed to type it all out again :)
<18> jarrod_, with synaptic I guess you can dinf the right one for 64 even
