<0> VitaminG, I just updated a few hours ago. I didn't know repositories were broken at all.
<1> gwilma, or if you make a simbolic link to the folder... like "ln -s /your_fisical_folder Desktop_simbolic_folder"
<2> mantizDE: can you do some artwork, translation, sell CD (and send donation)?
<3> hi all can anyone help me to set my computers resolution and refresh rate
<4> nomin: ok, because last week there was something in the topic about the US repositories not working.
<5> what do i need to do to play mp3s
<6> Hi, I'm a long-time Debian user just giving Ubuntu a try. Ubuntu's cryptsetup doesn't seem to work with my Debian encrypted partitions. Any ideas?
<2> rixxon: and MP3 player of course
<7> hi girish, are you running gnome right now?
<8> i could try to sned ubuntu iso as email atachments
<3> yes another lemur
<0> rixxon, I think ubuntu plays mp3's from installation.
<2> email? nay bad idea
<3> am running gnome
<8> people might fall for it
<7> nomin, my toem did not grok mp3



<9> Matheus: I can make the link, but I want it to look like a normal folder, without the little arrow at the top of the icon. It's no biggie, but I'd prefer the look that way
<10> nomin: no it doesn't heh
<11> nomin: no it doesnt
<7> nomin, my totem did not grok mp3 after install
<12> rixxon: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
<7> ^grok^understand sorry folks :)
<11> nomin: mp3 is non-free
<0> is lame needed to play mp3s?
<7> !restricted
<13> restricted is probably https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats Most of the formats listed there can be replaced by !FreeFormats
<0> I must have installed lame a while ago than.
<1> rixxon, ubuntu uses gmstream by default that not play mp3... try to remove gstream and install xine plugin for totem
<5> thank you kesV
<3> Can anyone help me to set my refresh rate to 80 hz and 800*600 resolution?
<11> totem-xine is the package name
<7> girish, got to System -> Preferences -> Screen resolution
<3> i did that
<5> matheus: i want to use rhythmbox though
<10> totem doesn't need xine to play mp3
<11> and it will remove totem-gstreamer for you :)
<10> nor does rhythmbox
<14> How does suspend work with Dapper?
<11> pkern: ask in #ubuntu+1 please
<1> gwilma, can't you change the icon by right click on he folder?
<2> gstreamer for ubuntu does come with MPEG1/2/3 decoder, just select the right package
<3> another_lemur:it is not showing capable option ..wat do i do
<3> Can anyone help me to set my refresh rate to 80 hz and 800*600 resolution?
<7> girish, which video driver is X using for you?
<15> girish, have you read http://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto ?
<3> no
<10> mp3 patents expire in 09, thank god
<8> how do i get gstreamer to send out mp3 bering played to irc channels ?
<3> i am using amd with asus a7n8xvm board
<15> girish, there are some decent instructions there
<0> has anyone backported kaffeine v0.8 to breezy? Breezy comes with v0.7 and I want to record streaming video. Only v0.8 has that feature working.
<3> ok
<3> thank u
<9> Matheus: I've tried changing the icon, but I still get the little arrow at the top right-hand corner.
<6> spikeb: That's a valuable patent. Might well find the law changes to extend it :)
<15> girish, if you still have probs, come back, of course :)
<3> ok thank u
<11> nomin: not sure you can check on packages.ubuntu.com under breezy backports to see all backported apps
<12> mantizDE: gstreamer by itself won't do that, but a proper combination of irc client plugin and media player should do it
<1> gwilma, in that case, you need to make a application laucher "nautillus --browser forder_name", and you can change the icon
<2> gstreamer0.8-mad >> to enable MPEG1/2/3 audio support with default totem package
<8> is this an mp3 discussion channel ?
<1> anyone wokrs with eclipse ??? I need a help to install some plugins
<16> gosh why is it so hard to install stuff by urself in linux
<8> is picasa in ubuntu ?
<7> hi drew, what is giving you trouble?
<11> no mantizDE there is a deb for it but you still need to run iot with wine
<9> Matheus: Thanks - I've tried that, and it does let me make the icon I want, but then drag & drop stops working
<17> drew: _everything_ is hard in linux (except doing shell stuff), its not just installing stuff
<11> drew: its not hard to install things
<11> sudo apt-get install <packagename>
<17> gnomefreak: ofcourse it is ... from your standpoint it isnt
<17> but judging from your nick, you've been around for a while
<1> gwilma, but the right-hand corner is cool! :)
<9> lol - I like it most of the time, but if I want to put custom icons on different folders, it doesn't look quite so good.
<18> does alacarte edit just the gnome menu or does it now edit the kde menu as well?
<7> drew, ping



<11> kronoz: gnome afaik
<15> installing isn't hard (except for the non-free support), it's figuring out what to install that can be hard
<9> Matheus: it's probably not worth the amount of time I'd have to spend to figure out how to change it though
<11> once you have the universe and multiverse repos enabled everything you will really ever need is in the repos and its apt-get isntall
<4> sybariten: if apt-get command line confuses you, you can always hust use Synaptic
<11> or add/remove programs from tha pplication menu
<8> hey whats the difrence betwen instaling from live cd opsed has the "regular
<8> install metod
<11> mantizDE: gui fior live cd
<16> live cd might not have all the packages
<16> and the live cd will prob ake longer
<11> mantizDE: i found the live cd to be faster but eh that might just be me
<11> drew: live cd install has all the packagew
<8> hehe
<11> they just added a gui face to it
<17> VitaminG: apt-get doesnt confuse me much ... i use it every day almost, and i even prefer it to windows archives or exes, (which says a lot) .... but anyone who's used *nix seriously for some years, who's been experimenting with some different hardware levels and so .... knows, that it just doesnt always work. Sometimes you have to try and fix things yourselves, and in many of those cases you can be stuck for two days asking in forums an
<8> i knew i could be able to get a strait anser
<16> oh it does
<0> someone has been spamming the hell out of the backports wiki: http://backports.ubuntuforums.org/wiki/index.php/Main_Page
<16> how can I make a fake .deb package
<16> like u do to install java
<11> fake deb?
<11> drew: you mean fakeroot
<19> drew: you could look at checkinstall possibly?
<16> well I want to install virtual boy advance
<16> and all it comes with is a source
<20> I want to maintain my hardrives and partitions, what tools do i use?
<6> drew: Back in Debian you'd use the "equivs" package.
<8> whats the ubuntu default file system ?
<16> well Im in ubuntu but I know if I make it a fake .deb it will more than likely install
<19> mantizDE: ext3 but you can choose when you install
<1> mantizDE, ext3
<2> drew: install "visualboyadvance"
<15> drew, you mean visualboyadvance?
<16> yes visual boy advance
<21> sounds gay
<16> I keep calling it virtual
<15> drew, it's only an apt-get away :)
<21> i would prefer visual girl advance
<8> is it easy to get edonky running in ubuntu ?
<21> :P
<9> Matheus: thanks anyway.
<16> really I can get it in apt-get
<8> i have 501 files to share
<16> if so how can I . I just started linux yesterday
<4> drew: if you've used it in windows, don't expect the same thing.
<4> drew: just search for it in synaptic
<15> drew, on the top menu bar: System-Admin->Synaptic. Once it's open type Ctl-F and search
<16> as long as I can play it I dont care if its like windows or not
<16> I know where synapatic is
<22> hi back again
<8> can i get windows running on wine ?
<22> does anyone know why this is happening
<2> no... some windows application may work with WINE
<23> mantizDE: no you can't. but you can run windows applications
<8> i wanna run the hole thing
<16> visual boy advance is not in synaptic
<4> mantiz: for edonkey, use synaptic to find amule. it's a cross-platform edonkey client. It works great. or if you want to do it in command line, I think the package is called amule.
<15> drew, have you enabled the multiverse repository?
<15> drew, and the universe?
<4> drew: are you using breezy
<16> I think so
<16> Im using 5.10 I think thats breezy
<24> Hi guys. I'm trying to get WG311v1 up. However, it's not listed in ifconfig. In device manager, I can see it is recognised as being plugged in. How do I use it?

<20> I know i dont give alot to go on here, but i cant write to my ipod, with vfat
<15> drew, there are several ways, the easiest for me is to ask you to type in a terminal grep universe /etc/apt/sources.list , does that line have a # at the beginning?
<6> crazy_penguin: Yeah...
<22> i have installed them but not sure linux and command line is new to me
