<7> oldworld is, like, to install on an old world powermac, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Installation/OldWorldMacs
<4> I've gone through suse and debian
<0> i've only used ubuntu liveCD, but i love it just the same :)
<4> sorry kestas
<3> musicman:y is it not a good idea to start wid debian



<8> adu, I remember a period when I was too scared to install, and I relied on the liveCD :P
<3> musicman:thin its rock solid?
<0> ubotu: thanks
<7> de rien, adu
<1> I use ubuntu on my radio/media/kitchen box
<8> thementor, Ubuntu has the best support, it's easiest for a beginner
<5> when i'm executing command "sudo module-***istant build,install fglrx-kernel" it says that : fglrx-kernel-source (source package installed): -- Binary package(s) for kernel(s): + (2.6.10-5-amd64-generic): not found
<1> not sure why I came in here actually
<4> :) anyone know where I can find the msttcorefonts, or the deb that has it in?
<5> khermans_ do i need just to change vesa to fglrx in xorg.conf?
<9> apt-get install it
<6> !info msttcorefonts
<7> msttcorefonts: (Installer for Microsoft TrueType core fonts), section multiverse/x11, is optional. Version: 1.2ubuntu2 (breezy), Packaged size: 21 kB, Installed size: 164 kB
<1> musicman: hmm I think there's some sort of a script which installs all those questionable apps which everyone needs
<1> musicman: called ubuntu bootstrap, something like that
<6> musicman: ^^^^^ (multiverse repository)
<2> qui
<2> quix, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI?highlight=%28binary%29
<9> musicman: you need to enable multiverse
<2> i have to go now
<5> heeeeeeeeeee
<5> heeeeeeeeey
<4> ah! I'm in dapper
<2> quix, just follow that wiki guide and you lll be fine
<4> hence not finding it
<4> apt-get doesn't work :_
<5> khermans_ i did bunch of them
<4> nope, still no installation candidate
<2> quix, that one will work! sorry -- dude gotta go!
<8> musicman, what errors?
<2> quix, googd luck :-)
<10> ow sensor is not workig :\
<2> quix, email me if you really get lost
<11> should I keep the packages thare are in /var/cache/apt/archives/ ?
<4> Package msttcorefonts is not available, but is referred to by another package.
<4> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
<4> is only available from another source
<4> E: Package msttcorefonts has no installation candidate
<2> kristian.hermansen AT NO SPAM gmail.com
<12> which file system should be used? reiserfs or ext3? :s
<0> hm
<5> thanks
<0> maybe I'll put it on my old mac laptop then :)
<8> exhale, ext3 sounds good...
<4> yeah, I like ext3 too
<12> what about reiser?
<8> It's the default..Unless you have a reason, there's no need to switch
<11> should I keep the packages thare are in /var/cache/apt/archives/ ? they are using up a lot of disk space ?
<12> whats the difference?
<13> hello, I have a question with hal-pmount (on dapper)
<14> AnAnt, apt-get clean
<0> what about 'shred' doesn't that only work on nonjournaled fs's?
<4> jimmy__ did that error mean anything to you, or show you any enlightenment?
<13> i manage to give the right name for a disk (like /dev/maxtor), but ubuntu mount the disk always as usbdisk... how can i make it recognize as Mastor???
<0> AnAnt: its save to remove source packages for things that aren't CURRENTLY installing :)
<0> save => safe
<8> musicman, there's no package with that name - try sudo apt-cache search msttcorefonts
<4> cheers mate
<0> AnAnt: so only .src.tar.gz type stuff
<4> I'll go searching, I should be able to live with out it anyway :)



<4> got it
<11> what is hal-pmount ?
<4> needed to add the US based multiverse
<4> the AU based one does have it :)
<15> im trying to install apache but it says cannot lock file permision denied
<14> maikol, try via the package manager in system administration
<8> maikol, are you using synaptic and apt-get at the same time?
<15> i think just apt-get
<16> Seveas: I thought that was a fleck of dust on my screen at the end of a dash ;-)
<8> mailkol, try "sudo apt-get install apache2"
<15> tried that and it said 'not in sudoers file'
<0> maikol: try deleting your harddrive
<8> maikol, there you're not an administrative user - Are you the computer's admin?
<17> czy mozna usunac partycje z xp w ubuntu i potem dododac to wolne miejsce na dysk dla ubuntu ? troche zamotalem ale sadze ze bedzie wiadomo oco mi ohodzi
<8> adu, what?
<14> maikol, did you install with 'server' option?
<15> yeah, i just finished installing ubuntu on it
<15> no
<18> how do i know which linux version im running?
<8> SurfnKid, uname -a
<14> maikol, what is the output of the 'id' command?
<15> uid=1000(maikol)
<13> AnAnt: I mean Hal and pmount (hardware abstraction layer)
<19> yop
<15> gid=1000(maikol)
<18> ty Jimmey
<15> and so on
<15> cant paste cause its another computer
<14> is the group 'admin' in the output maikol ?
<15> says groups=4(adm)
<20> SurfnKid: lsb_release
<20> SurfnKid: lsb_release -a
<15> only other relatively similar word to admin is 104(lpadmin)
<18> ah thats also what i needed ty
<18> im writing all these commands down in a pad
<18> all thanks to my msdos experience in highschool this pays off
<5> how to find out what kernel version i'm using???
<21> hi. apache 2.0.55 / ubuntu 6.06 -- loaded mod_dav using "a2enmod dav_fs && a2enmod dav && a2enmod dav_svn" but dav doesnt not appear to be loading/working
<8> uname -a
<8> :P
<21> any ideas?
<18> :P
<18> that worked too but doesnt give you the breezy or dapper version
<8> quix, uname -a
<8> SurfnKid, I meant to quix
<8> :P
<5> thanks Jimmey__
<5> :)
<22> anyone here knows how the intel mac support looks in ubuntu dapper?
<8> pluffsy, it looks like this
<8> %^&*()
<8> Just kidding
<22> does a normal install cd boot and does sound and so on works?
<18> oh
<22> or will I need to install ehh elilo or what it's called myself?
<15> so limmey__, any ideas about why i dont have permision to install apche
<8> maikol, are you the only user on the system?
<15> limmey__, yes
<8> And you've only just installed?
<15> limmey__, yep, just a few mins ago
<23> maikol, Are you root?
<5> how to update kernel to 2.6.12-1 from 2.6.10-5 ?
<23> maikol, Or do you have a root p***word?
<18> whats the difference btw .rpm and .deb
<24> quix: sounds like downgrade
<5> oops :0
<15> gnube, i do but i dont want to install it as root cause then i cant modify it without being root
<25> how does one even setup a root user in ubuntu? i have to sudo everything
<23> SurfnKid, rpm is a package from Red Hat or Suse, a deb is a package from debian
<24> quix: no, it doesnt, dont listen to me :p
<26> how do i change my default boot operating system to windows in grub? (i've just installed ubuntu on a work computer, and dont wish to have it default to ubuntu because its not properly set up yet)
<5> ;)
<23> maikol, Certain things, like installing apache, can only be done as root.
<18> gnube deb made sense right, oh ok and what would be better for ubuntu, i hear its based more on debian's core structure
