<peter__> Hi all -- newbie here -- are there any decent sites outlining how to get U installed on a Stinkpad T40 -- I googled, and haven't really come across anything
<mythri1> '/dev/hda7' has always been my swap partition
<ompaul> mythri1, it may be in which case fdisk /dev/hdX where X is the drive in question and then using the p will tell you what is there now
<airmikey> any 1 here useing , u320 scsi
<mythri1> 'unable to open /dev/hda'
<Frogzoo> mythri1: if you're sure there's no data on /dev/hda7, then enter this command 'sudo mkswap /dev/hda7'
<patrik> a video player that i can use custom aspect ratio? mplayer dont seem to expand video window when i drag it out
<Frogzoo> Frogzoo: might be a good idea though to first take a look at the partition table with fdisk
<Frogzoo> mythri1: might be a good idea though to first take a look at the partition table with fdisk
<saif_> common, well, how do i specify the parameter?? :) i though i just type noacpi after boot: but it gave me an error
<howcomes> hey ompaul, after init 1 (which i kinda figured would drop me out of KDE) i couldnt remember the second command you wanted me to issue, what was it ?
<Frogzoo> saif_: boot "linux acpi=off" iirc
<Mythril> Frogzoo: cfdisk and fdisk both fail to open the drive
<Frogzoo> Mythril: 'sudo fdisk /dev/hda'
<patrik> how do I install the realplayer 10 .bin file?
<Frogzoo> saif_: that's to boot from the grub prompt btw, if that's what you want
<Mythril> Frogzoo: http://pastebin.com/528709
<graham> can someone help me with deleting a folder that has root ownership
<Mythril> Frogzoo: any idea how I fix that?
<s_spiff{AWAY}> /quit going to sleep
<comforteagle_> is there a ruby 1.8.4 package? the default is 1.8.3
<saif_> common, Frogzoo what i was is to install ubuntu amd64 :) now it hangs after "NET Registered Protocol Family 2
<patrik> graham, have you used the sudo command?
<Gandalfar> Hello, how broken is dapper?
<Frogzoo> Mythril: well it's a real mess - the partitions not ending on partition boundary is not good - did you overallocate the file systems? however, the swap problem is that your swap is on /dev/hda6
<saif_> Frogzoo, i am trying to install amd64 and it hangs right form the start
<digitalfox> quiet morning
<Frogzoo> saif_: did you try entering from the grub prompt "linux acpi=off"
<saif_> Frogzoo, yes, it still hangs!
<Mythril> Frogzoo: thanks for your help, I could've swore it has always been hda7
<recon> Does anybody know how to configure backports for breezy? I can't figure out how.
<guyver> Is anyone having trouble with Dapper and Cups please?
<osfameron> bah, my ubuntu now won't boot into gnome / unable to open .ICEauthority file...
<osfameron> !iceauthority
<ubotu> No idea, osfameron
<Micksa> so there are 2 debootstrap variants installable in breezy
<Micksa> and neither of them seem to work
<Micksa> O: dpkg: can't mmap package info file `/var/lib/dpkg/status': Invalid argument
<Frogzoo> saif_: did you burn the install cd from windows?
<Micksa> WTF does that mean?
<muriel> What should I do to disable automatic starting gnome?
<Micksa> oh wait, I know
<Micksa> oh, **** that
<ompaul> Micksa, please, you don't have to use that language
<guyver> muriel: you can choose session on the login screen
<zen-pc> hi there.
<saif_> Frogzoo, yes
<Micksa> man, I have to use a uml to create an image for a uml
<_jason> ubotu: tell osfameron about xhangs
<cY> in a program i get cannot find IGL any ideas?
<saif_> Frogzoo, sorry somethn came up! thanx anyways
<cY> its looking in /usr/bin/Id
<Frogzoo> saif_: use a proper cd burning pkg, not windows
<zen-pc> I want to create an Ubuntu package from a software (currently in tar-gz). I want to add an item to gnome menu too, from this package. Can you help me ?
<muriel> guyver, I wan't to disable it every time. It wastes my resources, but i work on console only
<Mythril> Anyone have any ideas on how to fix http://pastebin.com/528709 <- this
<_jason> zen-pc: use checkinstall, and for the menu (system tools -> app menu editor). What package?
<guyver> muriel: There was an option in the installation to set it up as a server, that is non-graphical
<zen-pc> _jason, A software to send pictures to a swiss lab
<zen-pc> _jason, I would like the package add automatically an entry in gnome menu. Is it possible ?
<muriel> guyver, You don't understand me. I sometime use GUI but I don't need it every day
<guyver> Is anyone else using Dapper with the Kubuntu desktop and having trouble with Kprinter manager please?
<osfameron> _jason: thanks, that wasn't something that the login error message was particularly helpful about :-)
<_jason> zen-pc: it's surely possible but I don't know how, you may want to try with #ubuntu-motu. They maintain the universe
<zen-pc> _jason, Ok, thanks for your help
<guyver> muriel: you can kill it, but you'll have to look up on Google how to change rc.d. I ma not certain how to do it
<graham> can any1 help me delete this folder?
<_jason> graham: what folder?
<graham> a folder that i made and dont want anymore
<muriel> How disable automatic grub starting??
<patrik> graham, did you read what I said?
<_jason> graham: sudo rm -r /path/to/folder, make sure you don't delete the wrong thing
<guyver> muriel: why would you want to kill grub?
<Frogzoo> Mythril: is that output from window's fdisk, or linux's?
<Mythril> Frogzoo: linux's
<muriel> guyver, that don't slove my problem
<_jason> ubotu: tell graham about cli
<guyver> muriel: You said that you wanted to kill Grub, that doesn't make sense, unless you are changing to lilo
<Stormx2> heya
<Frogzoo> Mythril: as long as you're not using dos - it shouldn't be a problem
<graham> sorry _jason
<graham> that worked
<graham> i was using rm -d
<_jason> graham: oh ok
<Mythril> Frogzoo: I'm not
