<redguy> Stuart1: ?

<stalefries> Hanzo__: some people don't reboot their computers for a whole year, at times. If that's what you're asking
<Stuart1> Sorry
<Apoll013> Unix is the system of the future for 30 years now....
<ADC_> redguy: Done. I think. Should be there under my nick.
<Stuart1> 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?
<j2daosh> got a question. is it possible to send a message to a windows box? via net send? like with ms-dos...
<Hanzo__> stalefries, do you think its possible for it to beat 6 years?
<mcdenyer> unix is to slow
<GameOver69> can anyone help me getting kaffeine working in firefox... i installed the mozilla plugin but it didnt work
<stalefries> Hanzo__: possible, but why would you want that?

<slavik> mcdenyer: unix (freebsd) behaives better under heavy load
<saerdna> will ubuntu boot much faster with sata drive than ata drive?

<anagramarama> mcdenyer, as windows is to bugfree
<hornet> Apoll013, i am editing that file as root as we speak, do you know where i need to add what to have hda5 as a boot option ?
<Stuart1> apoll013 I don't think so, windows still boots
<j2daosh> saerdna, not really... unless you buy a higher rpm sata drive as opposed to pata
<herni> hello all
<GameOver69> Snozi: is there problems with mplayer?
<snozle> gameover69: install mozilla-mplayer
<Apoll013> ubotu tell hornet about grub
<redguy> ADC_: indeed. I am starting to think that you have to ask somebode else for help...
<snozle> gameover69: what do you mean?
<Hanzo__> stalefries, to beat the no-1 possition on Uptime-project.net
<j2daosh> red what your issue?
<ADC_> redguy: That would ****. Sorta. Who should I ask?
<snozle> gameover69: mplayer has a very nice plugin for streaming media thru firefox
<j2daosh> oh... adc... what is your issue
<j2daosh> lol maybe this noob knows the answer :)
<ADC_> I get a GRUB boot error 25 when my computer starts.
<GameOver69> snozie: ok im trying now
<j2daosh> 25?
<stalefries> Hanzo__: It's possible. You might as well try. :)
<slavik> quick question: does X support a resolution of 1280x768?
<azerty> hey all, does ubuntu Dapper Drake boot faster than Breezy ?
<j2daosh> one sec
<snozle> gameover69: in lieu of kaffene
<stalefries> slavik: why not?
<percent20> kma, i just msged you just to let you know
<CptBrutal> whats it mean when I have a tild after a filename? is that like a backup of some sort that is hidden?
<saerdna> j2daosh: and the factor that the drive is 4 years and worn?
<dooglus> azerty: yes
<kma> percent20: saw that
<slavik> stalefries: making sure ... I need outof the box supprot for it
<Apoll013> CptBrutal: yes
<stalefries> CptBrutal: yes
<GameOver69> snozie: it doesnt work..... still says im missing plugins
<floppyears> hi
<percent20> k
<floppyears> does ubuntu have a package for skype ?
<CptBrutal> thanks
<herni> i wanted to move my /home folder to a different partition... do i need to do somthing more than drag&drop?
<azerty> dooglus: how much faster
<kma> GAH
<slavik> floppyears: have you tried looking in synaptic?
<kma> this blows
<stalefries> slavik: It depends on your monitor, and if it gets set up correctly.
<azerty> dooglus: in percent :)
<j2daosh> saerdna, well yeah... old aint gonna be as fast as new
<dooglus> azerty: I've not timed it, sorry.
<slavik> stalefries: it's an LCD on a laptop ...
<ADC_> j2daosh and redguy: I might just reinstall GRUB if it's not going to kill everything.
<Stuart1> any ideas apoll013?
<snozle> gameover69: run sudo apt-get install mplayer then sudo apt-get install mozilla-mplayer, then restart mozilla
<floppyears> slavik: yes, but when I do apt-get install, I get errors :(
<dooglus> azerty: the bit where breezy takes a long time to "check module dependancies" doesn't happen in dapper
<j2daosh> ADC_, it probably wont... but i would dl a spare copy
<dooglus> azerty: and they've worked on speeding up the GNOME boot time
<slavik> floppyears: get the sources and compile it
<floppyears> slavik: it says that the package has unmet dependencies and that a package that it depends on is not installable :(
<stalefries> slavik: Is there a problem if it doesn't
<j2daosh> i had grub re-install problems that caused it to fail at stage 2
<azerty> dooglus: thanks
<dooglus> azerty: it seems to run faster, too.
<mcdenyer> my computer just like forze and like shut down but didnt trn off
<pcek> herni: your config files must have new path
<j2daosh> which means a new reinstall :(
<mcdenyer> and my screen went black
<mcdenyer> it was wierd
<slavik> stalefries: yes, there would be ... problem being I'd be pissed
<floppyears> slavik: true, thanks I always forget about that :)
<bongshoe> anyone know if 5.1 runs ok with 256mb
<GameOver69> snozle, it already says i have he newest version
<ADC_> j2daosh: A spare copy? How so?
<martin__> Hi guys. I have a simple question... How do I edit my /etc/hdparm.conf file with Root previliges??? In Kubuntu I could rightclick and choose edit as root but I don't know how to do it in Ubuntu :(
<jdettner> I have running an Ubuntu install for 1 month now and was always able to browse and connect to windows shares via Places/Network server. But now its not working. Im getting the message: You must log in to access..." And i am asked to insert username, domain, and a p***word. I never inserted something before but it was working good. Does someone know what could be the problem?
<slavik> alright, see ya all
<GameOver69> none of the firefox media plugins work when i install them... i dont know why
<slavik> hi Seveas
<mark_> hello there
<snozle> GameOver69: of both mplayer and mozilla-mplayer?
<slavik> Seveas: kooldock works in gnome :)
<dooglus> martin__: "sudo gedit /etc/hdparam.conf"
<GameOver69> only the ones that install from firefox like flash
<kma> wtf.. bricked my installation again
<GameOver69> snozle, yes
<martin__> Thx dooglus
<stalefries> slavik: ah. See if you can find your laptop on some sort of hardware compatibility list (linuxquestions.org has one) and see if it got set up correctly.
<Hanzo__> jdettner, turn off authentication on windows ?
<Apoll013> Stuart1: I'd need more info to really help u.... maybe try a Live-CD and check, if ur Linux partition is still intact. If u didn't change something, maybe the Linux-Partition broke
<GameOver69> im using firefox 1.5 could thaht be a problem
<j2daosh> dl a copy of grub just to make sure you have a good copy... well then again... hey seveas... you can get to the grub off the install cd without having to completely reinstall ubuntu right?
<Stuart1> Apoll013 Dargh, thanks you
<jdettner> Hanzo__: i didnt change something on the windows side. it was working good.
<dooglus> GameOver69: firefox plugins work in 1.50 for me
<slavik> stalefries: the guy who wrote the wiki for a variation of my laptop (same screen) wrote that everything is good ...
<redguy> ADC_: there's one more thing I would ask you to do within the livecd: dmesg | grep -E '(ide)|(hd.)'
<snozle> GameOver69: try this then https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
<redguy> ADC_: if this generates output, please paste it to the pastebin as well
<stalefries> slavik: If you feel like it, go ahead and try. By the way, what kind of laptop is it?
<jdettner> Hanzo__: i cannot even browse the other computers.
<snozle> GameOver69: you will have to enable the non-free formats so you can watch streaming multimedia encoded with non-free codecs
<kma> can someone please guide me on how to get SMP (opterons) working with ubuntu? this is the second time I trashed my ubuntu installation
<j2daosh> ADC_, hold on
<j2daosh> go to this link
<GameOver69> i have them
<Apoll013> !smp
<ubotu> smp is, like, totally, Symmetric Multi Processing. The x86 architecture way of using multiple CPUs in one computer.
<j2daosh> it aint ubuntu but for all purposes neccessary... look here first
<dooglus> redguy: 'ide|hd' is enough - don't need any brackets
<j2daosh> http://www.ozzu.com/ftopic37145.html
<GameOver69> i just dont get it
<j2daosh> Seveas, u there big guy?
<cliebow> anyone else have ooo crashing in breezy?
<Seveas> j2daosh, no
<redguy> dooglus: just wanted to be on the safe side :-)
<Apoll013> kma: there's specila kernels for that in ubuntu.... but i never got my hands on a 'big iron'
<GameOver69> anyone have an ideas of what i can do to fix this
<ADC_> redguy: pasted. That's a lot of output.
<j2daosh> ahh... well in that case... i wont ask you if there is a way to send messages between windows and linux like using netsend commands in windows.... because your not here and all :)
<kma> Apoll013: the smp kernels for breezy doesn't work :\
<Apoll013> time for a bug-report
<Stormx2> Uhg. Why does my launchpad login not work on the ubuntu.com site?
<kma> Apoll013: tried installing kernels from dapper but that trashes my installation
<cliebow> you can use smbclient -M to send to winders
<Apoll013> kma: predictable!
<ADC_> j2daosh: Visiting the link now.
<j2daosh> -m eh?
<kma> Apoll013: doh :)
<j2daosh> ok
<cliebow> M Big M
<kma> Apoll013: a guy told me thurday that I had to use a kernel from dapper
<j2daosh> and u wouldn't possibly have an example of that command would u? and possibly the format in which one would send a reply back to me would you?
<cliebow> j2: been a while..thta just pops up a little message box on a particular client
<GameOver69> anyone know how to specify plugins in firefox?
