Comments:

<0> haven't see this kind of behaviour in a while
<1> lol
<2> ADC_: also, consider fixing the problem with your box, cause random lockups *will surely* lead to much more trouble
<3> Is there a way to enable the userlist in xchat-gnome? x.x;
<4> can someone help me set up a chroot on amd64? i tried following the howto on the forums, and when i try starting firefox32 it still starts the x86_64 version
<5> redguy: Definitely - I've got a hardware-knowledgeable friend who will be looking at it soon. Money's tight, though, so fixing it right away isn't likely to happen unless he's got spares sitting around for whatever's actually broken.
<6> _jason: I fixed it, ty for the help
<7> HEy, I have a slight question, I want to install the kubuntu-desktop package inorder to install kde on a box that currently uses gnome
<8> angel12, you can look up the debian guide http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/reference/ch-tips.en.html#s-chroot
<9> rikai, it is there in settings and you may have to drag a grey line from the right hand side into the screen a little
<7> Would I have to uninstall gnome first
<8> i found it really helpfull
<6> __mikem: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
<1> anyone know why debian is so bad at seeing new hardware
<10> __mikem: you can use both
<11> _jason, too much for me for one day



<12> __mikem, no need to uninstall gnome
<7> Thats even better
<7> thanks
<6> flodine: because debian is 'stable'
<9> flodine, why are hardware makers so bad at making specs for their hardware available?
<7> definitely better than redhat in my oppinion
<1> stable at old stuff
<13> hello
<11> _jason, real shame as I was doing so well!
<2> ADC_: I understand, but you have to know that all your data on that box is not safe
<14> why i have this kind of errors !! i just instal defalut ubuntu ... he erase my hdd.. and he put by default what she wants.. OK ... i see the desktop and after i reset the computer !!! and now i have this errors on my screen and the computer is freezed .. the errors are.. 1: Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0) some guy in linuxhelp say to me to use this : linux root=/dev/hda noinitrd vga=normal and i recive this
<15> hey im using rythmbox can someone help me put songs onto it?
<10> darren: the wiki basically tells you what to copy and paste, but you can always try again later
<2> ADC_: do you have a separate /boot partition?
<16> mcdenyer: file>import folder
<17> Hi guys! Is there a howto for using qemu under ubuntu? Thanks
<6> !tell Noobhelp about pastebin
<18> my mouse cursor sometimes changes into a odd looking square when clicking, not a huge problem but it is quite annoying, does anyone know why this might be happening?
<19> Every time I enter into ubuntu, the time in Windows gets wrong. Any hint?
<14> i recive this : VFS: Cannot open root device "hda" or unknown-block (0,0) and second Please oppend a correct "root boot option
<15> stalefries, yeah when i do that it just adds stuff to my library
<7> The only reason why I used the gnome install in the first place is because my brother and my father hate kde (for some strange reason)
<20> Im running Ubuntu on my laptip, but my externa monitor shuts down when X starts. can anyone help me?
<6> __mikem: I got kooldock to run in gnome :)
<16> mcdenyer: then select the song, and click the play button. Or do I not understand you?
<5> redguy: I'm not sure. Been a while since I configured my drives. I tried looking at the Disks configuration earlier on this Live CD thing, but the root p***word I typed in during install didn't work. Is the Live CD's root p***word something different? I can look and make sure, or just run a command line thing for you.
<11> _jason, after installing the driver it mentions something running aticonfig. what do you hink that means?
<8> oyroy, you need to setup your xserver and see if your card can support dual monitor
<2> ADC_: live CD has no root p***word, just hit return
<15> stalefries, i dont think so im just trying to transfer music form my computer onto an ipod
<7> Well, as long as the necessary library files are there, I believe any kde software can run on gnome
<14> slavik insteed use that stupid bot to.. say.. to me.. in flooding the cannel.. try to explain to me why i have that problem
<6> Noobhelp: I'd help if I knew how ...
<10> darren: I don't know, i enver installed an ati card
<12> ilba7r, for pdf review, you can use xpdf + flpsed ($sudo apt-get install xpdf flpsed)
<7> ati cards ****, don't do it
<15> does anyone know how to manage ipod with rytmbox?
<21> i ask myself why is everybody so keen on using ubuntu with qemu or vmware.... get coLinux or colonist and run it natively under windows, without all the bloat.
<5> redguy: Weird, tried that and it said su needed a p***word and none was entered.
<2> ADC_: or just run sudo fdisk -l and paste it to http://ubuntu.pastebin.com
<13> seems a bit...ermm, busy here....anyone interested in answering some newbie questions in PM?
<22> is there anything extra on the DVD release or just basically live + install CDs
<0> how do I find out if my graphic chip nvidia is legecey or new?
<2> ADC_: hrm, odd
<7> dvds are just combinations of the two
<8> anagramarama, i have them installed. do not work with any file that has graphics. I really appreciate your help but seems i will need adobe profess on window after all. Thanks again
<14> Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0) - slavik this may help u?
<9> Noobhelp, having read your comments, I am wondering how you managed to install in the first place, it does not do what it chooses, you tell it do to stuff and it does it, now I don't know what caused the problem. I have one question for you before I even think about the issue. Did ubuntu ever boot okay or has it been broken since you first tried?
<23> I have a dual boot Windows XP and Ubuntu machine. Both partitions were booting properly until just now. When I try and boot the Ubuntu Partition I get told "Can't access tty; job control turned off", it also mentions that /dev/hda2 does not exist. Ekk. Can anybody tell me what this means?
<24> how can get twinview in ubuntu? is there an easy way to do it?
<11> _jason, well according to the insatller I've installed it but lspci still says ATI Unknown device
<25> hmm.. is there a page listing all ubuntu repositories
<25> ?
<25> percent20: running nvidia with dualhead?
<24> yes
<14> ompaul broken since you first
<25> percent20: have you installed the nvidia drivers?
<16> mcdenyer: You could wait until april when the new version of ubuntu comes out, which will have a version of rhythmbox that supports iPod syncing, or you can try to get rhythmbox version 0.9.2 from somewhere and manually install it
<24> yes
<15> whats the best way to managew ipod on ubuntu?



<5> redguy: Can't run sudo fdisk -l either. Same issue - incorrect PW.
<21> !mirrors
<26> methinks mirrors is repository mirrors can be found through http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Archive
<25> percent20: you have to edit your xorg.conf
<25> ubotu: checking
<26> Wish i knew, kma
<6> Noobhelp: read this: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=269230
<9> Noobhelp, okay, so it has never worked. Then I suggest that rather than trying to fix it let us try to get it installed correctly.
<24> k
<15> stalefries, hmm well im tyring to put stuff onto my sis ipod before she leaves the country for vacation
<18> does anyone know why, when i click on a window, it does not switch to it, I need to click on the top bar to switch to that window
<25> percent20: I'm going to do that in a few.. if you wait like 20-30 minutes I can paste you my xorg.conf when I'm done
<2> ADC_: this is odd
<6> snozle: check the focus setting for your windows manager
<24> kcool ty
<9> Noobhelp, if you want to I will give you instructions that I give anyone having issues trying to install. It is your decision
<5> redguy: Actually, weird behavior.
<21> kma, to avoid further complications; ubotu is a bot !
<6> ompaul: he has problems booting into an installed ubuntu
<25> Apoll013: oh :)
<16> Try going to the rhythmbox website and compiling the 0.9.2 code, or try to find a .deb that you can install from somewhere
<5> redguy: I tried sudo fdisk -l and just hit enter at the p***word. Next thing that shows up is the login prompt. Nothing else.
<24> kma, do you know how to check if 3d is working or not without using glxgears cuz glxgears seems to be broken
<9> slavik, perhaps, but it does appear to have installed correctly
<25> percent20: try glxinfo
<24> will there be like spot that says 3d: enabled?
<18> slavik: how do I do that?
<14> ompaul !! yes i want to help me.. but can we do in private!! i dont want to miss.. what u say to me..
<8> percent20, look if rendering is yes
<7> once I have kde installed, what would I do to jump between gui shells
<16> mcdenyer: or you could use itunes in windows or with crossover office. It doesn't work under wine yet
<24> sweet thank you
<24> lol 20th times the charm asking in here :)
<9> Noobhelp, they are very simple instructions,
<6> snozle: system -> preferences -> windows
<12> __mikem, it's an option when you login
<20> /msg nickserv set unfiltered on
<7> cool
<27> hello, i installed an additional linux distro, with the boot loader in its own partition. how can i add that partition to the ubuntu mbr ?
<24> sweet it works syas direct_rendering is yes
<9> Noobhelp, to send messages you need to register
<2> ADC_: try sudo fdisk -l /dev/hda then
<9> !register
<26> I guess register is type /msg nickserv help register (you probably should do this in the server window so that if you mess up you won't reveal your p***word to the whole channel :))
<9> Noobhelp, ^^^
<23> I have a dual boot Windows XP and Ubuntu machine. Both partitions were booting properly until just now. When I try and boot the Ubuntu Partition I get told "Can't access tty; job control turned off", it also mentions that /dev/hda2 does not exist. Can anybody tell me what this means?
<7> THe real question hornet is, why do you need two distributions
<28> okay, thanks for the opinions
<5> redguy: Same result: Nothing there but a login prompt right afterwards.
<18> slavik: there isn't a setting in there to change that, the only setting is to "select windows when the mosue moves over them"
<21> hornet: it's just a question of editing the _right_ /boot/grub/menu.lst
<18> the windows are selected when I click in them, but they do not come to the foreground unless I click the titlebar
<6> looking
<25> question.. the dapper 2.6.15-14-amd64-k8 kernel, is it compiled with smp?
<21> !grub
<26> http://wiki.ubuntu.com/GrubHowto or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows or troubleshooting grub: http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/grub.html#Troubleshooting
<15> i just read in a magazine that this is suposed to be linuxs biggest year
<12> lol
<6> mcdenyer: doubt it ...
<29> Is there anyway to mount an sftp connection or something else that I don't have to setup a lot of stuff heh
<25> mcdenyer: I have heard that for 5 years :)
<30> does Ubuntu get good uptime?
<2> ADC_: ok, what about ls -l /proc/ide ?
<24> does anyone have a username i can put into the ubuntu registration to give them credit for registering for them?
<16> mcdenyer: it's been like that since linux was first made ;)
<27> __mikem, i am having problems with different hardware on ubuntu, would like to try other distros.
<5> redguy: That works.
<24> that mad absolutly no sense what i said lol
<23> like to try other distros.
<23> <5> redguy: That works.
<7> I can guarintee you, it won't matter what distribution you use, for the most part youll still have the same problems
<2> ADC_: ok, paste the output to ubuntu.pastebin.com
