Comments:
<0> lol :)
<1> troy_s: word
<0> well gronk good to here your sorted :)
<0> hear*
<2> says its enabled already along with phpadmin tool box but can't login on putty phpadmin toolbox is hangin
<1> troy_s: do you jabber or just irc?
<3> jhenn: NOT linux support. open specs. open source. that way freebsd, linux, openbsd, netbsd, and EVERYONE wins.
<4> what's the difference between editing hdparm.conf and keeping the changes via hdparm -k1?
<3> jhenn: now AND in the future.
<1> troy_s: well netbsd and freebsd are already losing
<5> troy_s, jhenn, and additional arches.
<1> troy_s: they have binary blobs in their base
<3> jhenn: openbsd doesnt :)
<0> linux_newbie2, there isnt a big difference, its just a convienience thing really
<1> troy_s: i know but openbsd ports and packages contains wild non-free software
<0> personally i like to just edit conf files whenever possible
<4> skippy: thanks
<1> troy_s: its good for a router or just running emacs :)
<6> if I want to run dhclient before ntpdate, would I create a script that runs dhclient and place that before ntpdate in the boot sequence? and if so, which file controls the boot sequence? :)
<3> jhenn: needless to say, binary blobs willingness isn't the end of the world -- they are doing what they can. some choose to avoid them. to that end, open docs help everyone.
<1> troy_s: firewall even
<3> jhenn: bah.
<0> conf files are good, because you can back em up, and you learn more that way
<4> skippy: that would be my preference too: I'd rather re-do it later possibly instead of having settings that are automagically saved somewhere
<1> troy_s: you can so easily install non-free in openbsd
<1> troy_s: by accident
<1> troy_s: with one pkg_add
<1> troy_s: there goes your freedom
<0> yeah, linux, my fave think about linux are the human readable conf files
<3> jhenn: yah... they should at least be clear to what is going in and what the implications are.
<2> u can reach me from p***ion.sharpsphere.com if anyone would like to try i'm goin reboot and try the putty again
<7> jesus christ my SPM has a gizillion universe and multiverse
<1> troy_s: i wish they would make debian/openbsd
<3> jhenn: it is like a company saying that 32bit ndiswrapper drivers work so they aren't going to bother releasing an open source driver.
<1> troy_s: THAT would ROCK
<3> jhenn: the package system in openbsd is pretty darn great. can't complain too much.
<1> troy_s: yeah but its not categorized like debian is (free here, non-free here)
<7> hey guys now theyre enabled universe and multiverse
<1> troy_s: peace
<7> do i have to download mp3 packages
<8> can somebody tell me how to update my KDE to 3.5 ?
<8> now it's 3.4.3
<0> ill get you the link surfnkid, what version are you using, dapper or breezy?
<7> breezy
<7> im looking at steps
<7> ive enabled univ and multiv
<9> jhenn, yeah, the categorization is not as clear, and troy_s has a point. But, do we say 'ok, it's not free so you can't use your laptop on the net?' Harsh
<7> clicked ok, refreshed screen, downloaded a few pkgs and now i dont know what else to start enabling those package
<7> s
<7> i just want to get my mp3 music to play
<0> to get mp3 playing open a terminal
<0> alt and F2 should do it
<7> ok
<10> n8
<0> then type "apt-get update"
<7> can i do that on a regular terminal screen
<11> What's the right format for my hostname? (Trying to replace IP address that works in my CUPS clients.conf file)
<6> alright lets simplify the qestion then. which file controls the order of boot scripts?
<1> nickrud: i asked rms about this if he would support banning the internet
<1> nickrud: i can forward you the mail
<1> nickrud: uif u liek
<9> jhenn, please :)
<7> hang on skip
<0> then "apt-get install gstreamer0.8-mad gstreamer0.8-plugins gstreamer0.8-plugins-multiverse gstreamer0.8-ffmpeg" surfnkid
<1> nickrud: is your email in nickserv info
<0> sorry mate my error surfnkid
<0> you need to type "sudo" before everything.
<7> right
<0> have you got a terminal open yet?
<7> ahhh
<7> i did that yesterdady but didnt enable the univ multiv
<7> so it might work now
<12> eh i need help upgrading video card drivers
<0> sudo apt-get update
<7> ok
<0> then
<0> sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.8-mad gstreamer0.8-plugins gstreamer0.8-plugins-multiverse gstreamer0.8-ffmpeg
<7> it fetched a few things
<7> ill just copy and paste :P
<0> that should get you the major formats up
<0> yeah it should work :)
<7> ok
<0> it wont take very long
<13> Trashcan, as far as I know, the scripts are in /etc/init.d, and they get controlled by symlinks in /etc/rcN.d where N is the runlevel (default 2, I believe).
<0> that stuff should get you mp3 and avi/divx up
<7> ok its downloading and copying
<0> good :)
<0> now there is also a program called "synaptic"
<0> it is a graphical frontend for apt-get
<14> How does the ubuntu live/ install CD work?
<0> while it isnt as good for copying and pasting from IRC, it is very good fun to browse it using the search function to find new programs to try surfnkid
<7> right the SPM, u mean? i got it going but it was hard to find all those pkgs
<15> alexcamilo: its works like a live cd but has an install icon on desktop
<11> What's the right format for a hostname? (Trying to replace IP address that works in my CUPS clients.conf file)
<0> yeah surfnkid, synaptic package manager is crap when you have specific files to get
<14> i was looking for a little more technical description.
<7> thank you!
<0> but it is great if you want to seach for say.. a "html editor" or something like that
<7> now i dont feel that bad
<0> i love synaptic
<16> Hmm, where does the Trash Can reside?
<17> can I use a blah.build to create a package for ubuntu?
<15> alexcamilo: to get more technical you have to give me more of what you want to know
<16> Inside what folder?
<0> but if you are installing a list of packages apt-get is better
<7> by the way, i enabled the 3d desktop
<7> how do i get that going :P
<0> 3d desktop? never heard of it lol
<11> andrejkw in your home directory, but it's hidden. .trash
<16> Boelcke: thanks
<0> i use compiz/xgl
<7> its ok
<0> i think ive heard of 3d desktop actually, i will find you the tread to read
<11> I just learned that another hidden folder in there, .thumbs, should be cleaned out regularly. It keeps EVERY thumbnail ever created for nautilus
<14> gnomefreak: i remember someone telling me it works out of a 'ramdisk'. how is it created. how is it loaded into memory. what on the cd does these tasks?
<7> cheers mate
<7> its finished downloading/installing the packages. should i check anything else?
<13> Trashcan, /etc/rcS.d/README might also help
<17> does Anyone know if I can use a blah.build file to create an ubuntu package?
<0> Surfnkid, nah for now just test em out
<11> Can someone suggest another format for putting a hostname in my clients.conf file? When I put the IP address, that works fine, but the server machine's IP can change...
<18> skippy, i saw a live cd demo of one (that was in java) and it ****ed. :P lol
<7> oh ok should i open totem
<0> yeah Dr, i dont like the looks of it myself :)
<18> skippy, i dont care much for the "useablity" of it. :)
<15> alexcamilo: the cd is a bootable snapshot (iso) theres an underlying angine (for lack of better words) called casper that does everything to load it iirc
<0> yeah or jsut click on an mp3 file Surf,and see if it plays
<19> how come I'm on a system with "bash 3.0" and it's so different from bash?
<7> ok
<17> Hello?
<0> basically i use pretty stuff when i have mates round Dr_Willis, and then switch it off when they gone :)
<19> delete key makes a "~" and you can't view stuff in directories you don't have read access to like you can in bash by using the tab function
<12> how do i get back into gnome after exiting into terminal mode?
<15> tehubersheezy: ctrl+alt+f7
<0> Surfnkid here is the link to the 3d desktop thread i promised you http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=100167&highlight=3d+desktop
<18> skippy, :P
<0> :)
<20> How would I go about resizing an lvm2 partition (not the logical volume)?
<14> gnomefreak: is this the same for the install and live disks? just the install is an iso of an installer and the life is an iso of a system? or is ot someting different
<21> hi.. newbie here.. wondering if anyone could help me get apple shake running ... when i try to run it i get "bash: bin/shake: /bin/csh: bad interpreter: No such file or directory"
<22> dizy, sudo apt-get install csh
<18> skippy, these are the windows users that ask "whats that secret key you are using to delete files instead of dragging them to the trash?" and you reply.. "The Delete Key, of course"
<21> thanks seveas will try
<0> haha
<23> Hi
