<tomte_> hi - can someone explain the su/sudo thing to me?
<ompaul> jebus, no the iso
<ompaul> !tell tomte_ about rootsudo
<j-linux> tomte: use "sudo" -- it gives you root privliges for that one command.
<owner> !tell raerklegler about flgrx

<sceptic> j-linux: is there anything in /usr/src ?

<needhelp123> hello
<needhelp123> i've got kind of a strange problem regarding grub
<nickrud> hello, needhelp123
<needhelp123> i had my main ubuntu box install on my second hardrive
<LiteHedded> hang on I'm getting this in /xorg.o.log
<LiteHedded> dri initialization failed
<needhelp123> grub was installed on the first one
<LiteHedded> no 3d acceleration available
<needhelp123> i installed OSX x86 on the first harddrive last night and didn't realize this
<needhelp123> so I couldn't boot into ubuntu
<needhelp123> so i got my live cd and entered rescue mode
<needhelp123> grub-install /dev/hdb
<owner> osx x86?
<needhelp123> owner: yea
<nickrud> yeah, I'm biting on osx 86 myself
<needhelp123> owner: works great, but i'm locked out of ubuntu
<owner> are you using that on a pc
<needhelp123> anyway, I did a grub-install /dev/hdb, thinking it would solve my problems
<christopher> hey
<needhelp123> owner: yes, on a Dell Dimension 4500
<christopher> where can i get a copy of tiny fugee? new user
<owner> wow i would like to try that too
<owner> it must be beta
<needhelp123> when I go to boot from grub
<needhelp123> it gives me Error 17: Can not mount partition
<christopher> linux is better than windows!!!!
<LiteHedded> modprobe fglrx
<LiteHedded> er...
<Raerklegler> owner, how do I get that driver that I donwload from ATI to the other computer? I only have a terminal
<owner> just download and use the same steps you used in the guide
<nickrud> needhelp123, you need to chroot to your install on the hd, then do the grub-install
<christopher> anyone know where i can go to dl tinyfugee
<needhelp123> owner: its cool, but kinda slow.....I need to get back into my ubuntu box so I can mount it and edit some config stuff
<Raerklegler> owner, wouldnt it be easier if i reinstall in expert mode and enable VESA?
<tuxedo_kamen> I need help installing an USB modem on ubuntu, anyone?!
<needhelp123> nickrud: I did that
<nickrud> needhelp123, you didn't mention the chroot part, sorry
<christopher> no answers???
<christopher> comeonnnn
<needhelp123> nickrud: I did mount /dev/hdb1 /target; cd /target; chroot .; grub-install /dev/hdb
<christopher> OI PEOPL!!!!!!!!!
<needhelp123> nickrud: or something to that effect
<needhelp123> nickrud: ubuntu lives on /dev/hdb1 swap on /dev/hdb2
<tuxedo_kamen> ---> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7747 <--- I am getting this error, please tell me what I may be doing wrong
<Raerklegler> owner, wouldnt it be easier if i reinstall in expert mode and enable VESA?
<needhelp123> nickrud: when I try to boot it won't mount the partition, but if i boot into the live cd, or try the rescue on the live cd I can mount /dev/hdb1 no problem
<christopher> HELLLLOOOO
<owner> raerklegler no need to reinstall
<owner> just do sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
<owner> and select vesa
<Raerklegler> ok, lets see
<j-linux> sceptic: I've never made a symlink.... I would just create the directory /usr/src/linux/include, and then figure out how to make a symlink to my /usr/src/linux-headers... in there?
<needhelp123> anybody know what I can do, I'm really starting to freak out
<needhelp123> I have a LOT of important stuff on my ubuntu box and I do not want to format
<trev7389> What's the problem?
<christopher> can anyone seeee meeee
<nickrud> needhelp123, hm, that's what I'd do (except for the cd /target, chroot . ; I'd chroot /target
<nickrud> can't see the diff though
<christopher> JESUS ****IN CHRIST HELLO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
<Kyral> .....
<Kyral> Ban..now
<LiteHedded> please ati help!
<nickrud> christopher, yes, just that no one has the answer at the moment
<needhelp123> trev7389: formated grub on /dev/hda, my ubuntu box is on /dev/hdb1, tried this: mount /dev/hdb1 /target; chroot /target; grub-install /dev/hdb
<nickrud> christopher, patience is a virtue
