Comments:

<0> anyone avaiable to help me real fast?
<1> Gau, chmod is your friend
<2> I dunno
<3> Polygon: just ask your question
<1> Polygon, if you ask an actual question, actual help may be forthcoming :P
<0> lol
<0> ok... so in my quest to make my internet more stable
<0> i came across these "madwifi" drivers
<0> and.. i need to compile them before i can install them
<0> (im new at ubuntu btw)
<4> Polygon: please, try and put it all on one line, try using punctuation.
<0> and i read through the guide and made sure that all the stuff is installed, and its giving me an error
<0> mark@ubuntu:~/madwifi-ng$ make
<0> /bin/sh: line 0: cd: /lib/modules/2.6.12-9-386/build: No such file or directory
<0> Makefile.inc:95: *** /lib/modules/2.6.12-9-386/build is missing, please set KERNELPATH. Stop.
<5> how do I install kernel header?



<4> Polygon: the madwifi web site has some good docs for new users.
<5> liable: how do I install kernel headers
<4> Polygon: install kernel headers. also build-essential
<0> build essential, ill check that
<4> solo: apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)
<4> solo: the same way you install almost everything in ubuntu
<6> hi there
<0> it says i have it installed
<6> is automatix any good?
<4> Polygon: you need kernel headers too.
<7> quick question, which packages install the original xorg's libglx.a and libglcore.a ? my nvidia driver deleted them, and i want them back coz i reinstalled my ati drivers with another video card
<4> Polygon: see what i just told solo
<6> i want to install nvidia drivers and the multimedia stuff (codecs and players)
<5> liable: ask me to get a version to install
<7> if anybody can do a dpkg -S, so that i can see perhaps ?
<1> !automatix
<8> I heard automatix is unsafe, it overwrites configuration files, and does things like "echo -e 'y\nY\n'" that are considered risky. Please do not use it. There are alternative applications, but it's often best to read the documentation.
<4> solo: huh? use synaptic and search for linux-headers
<1> !tell kleinlappies about restricted
<0> one sec
<1> !tell kleinlappies about nvidia
<1> kleinlappies, there you go - better than automatix! ;)
<5> linux-headers-2.6.12-9-k7-smp 2.6.12-9.23
<5> linux-headers-2.6.12-9-k7 2.6.12-9.23
<5> linux-headers-2.6.12-9-686-smp 2.6.12-9.23
<5> linux-headers-2.6.12-9-686 2.6.12-9.23
<5> linux-headers-2.6.12-9 2.6.12-9.23
<5> linux-headers-2.6.12-9-386 2.6.12-9.23
<4> solo: dont paste here...
<5> sorry
<4> solo: install the ones that match your running kernel...
<9> solo: uname -r
<5> o I see
<0> hmmm.. it seems that i didnt have those installed
<6> yes sorry man kinda newbie here what must i do?
<1> solo, see what liable told you about apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r) -- that'll get you exactly the right headers...
<4> solo: the first command i gave should have done it for you
<0> thanks for the help
<0> bye
<1> kleinlappies, the bot should have sent you a pair of messages
<5> ok
<10> good morning! why can't i connect to the remote desktop on my dapper machine? it seems like vnc is not listening on the machine and the settings are correct in System/prefs/Remote Desktop???
<5> nice, installing in progress, thx ppl
<6> Madpilot did not get anything where must i look (sorry for the 101 Q&A)
<11> solo, told ya
<5> yeah, thank you too, me2win
<1> kleinlappies, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
<11> solo, np
<6> Madpilot thanks a mil (this help a appreciate allot)
<1> kleinlappies, no problem
<12> is there a shockwave player available?
<3> htrp: no
<1> htrp, no. Blame Macromedia
<13> thanks; problem was bad chmod syntax -_-
<12> so there's no way to play this lil game i have
<14> htrp: -> kqemu
<10> anyone: how can i tell if the remote desktop process is running on my machine?
<15> what FS would you format a 500GB home storage drive?
<16> that depends
<14> Delicates: ext3 no question
<12> what you mean?



<16> Are you to be sharing it with other operating systems?
<15> Frogzoo: why not ReiserFS?
<12> no
<14> htrp: you can run doze under kqemu
<16> htrp: not talking to you
<3> Delicates: XFS is very nice
<3> Delicates: reiserfs is also nice.. its up to you..
<14> Delicates: only because ext3 is well understood & totally stable, & the difference between reiser & ext3 is sfa
<17> hi on
<17> :)
<17> guess what system I on :-)
<18> quick question
<3> Delicates: format it as each and test it with lots of small files and a couple of big ones.. see what works best for you
<17> :P
<15> bah
<18> I set up a samba share via the share program in gnome
<18> however, one windows, it asks for a p***word
<17> ^_^
<18> how do I fix this?
<15> I'm also considering sometimes opening that FS with Windows IFSD
<3> Delicates: the fs you choose depends mostly on whether you really need that extra 0.5% performance and the size and type of files you will be useing
<16> use swat ;) (if you don't want edit the config file yourself)
<16> or webmin
<17> BSD blowin ubuntu away, I got tired of bugs :-)
<3> Delicates: in that case you can only use fat32/ntfs or ext2 (not ext3)
<17> hi all btw :D
<16> huh
<17> I had to stop in, say hello ;-)
<16> ext3 is supported in doze
<16> ...
<15> variant: ext3 is backwards compatible with ext3
<14> Delicates: I don't believe it
<15> hahaha
<16> heh
<15> with ext2 even
<3> Delicates: with ext2 yes but you cant mount it under windows
<14> :)
<15> variant: you can mount it as ext2
<3> Delicates: you can mount ext2 or ext3 if you disable the journal (back to ext2)
<14> only drawback with ext3 is file recovery IS NOT POSSIBLE
<15> huh?
<17> see you all in bit :-)
<3> Delicates: you would have to disable the journal under ubuntu first which would be a bit of a pain in the as
<15> Frogzoo: why wouldn't it be possible?
<3> s
<14> maybe reiser, xfs are better if you intend to unintentionally delete files & want to retrive them
<17> if I were people, I would wait for next ubuntu :P
<15> variant: which IFSD driver are you talking about?
<3> Delicates: because its not.. there is no ext3 undelete but you can use file recovery tools like magic rescue
<17> hi Delicates :-
<17> :)
<14> Delicates: ext3 deletes the inode - so when you delete the file, there's nothing for recovery tools to match against to restore your data
<15> Frogzoo: and ext2 doesn't?
<14> Delicates: correct
<3> Delicates: what is ifsd?
<15> variant: Installable File System Driver for Windows
<3> Delicates: there is one for ext2 but not anything else afaik
<3> Delicates: you totaly just made up that acronym
<3> :P
<15> variant: http://rfsd.sourceforge.net/
<3> Delicates: i would not rely on that to provide you with access.. i would be suprised if it works in its current state
<15> variant: I'm not planning to use it with Windows immediately... some time in the future maybe
<19> damn you people of choice - who can tell what to use - ext3 or reiser -- all that for a simple home-computer use??
<3> Delicates: it would appear to be "not quite dead" as it says on the project page
<3> ploom: just one or the other.. it really doesnt make any difference to the average user
<15> Well I appreciate the compilation speed uder Reiser4
<15> makes hell of a difference
<20> harisund, are you still there?
<21> moin
<22> What command lets you keep an application running even after closing the terminal window you ran the command from?
<19> variant, their both still journalling and etc... right? Just one sometimes is faster: ext3 on creating files and reiser on deleting or what way was that?
<3> ploom: depends on how your using it.. both can be tuned a little and it depends on the size/quantitiy of files etc
<19> ok, thanks
