well, not to be a smarty-pants, but, don't you think when you're going to do something like partition a hard drive and intall another OS on it, it would behoove you to make a backu?

and see if it can auto compile a header for your kernel

geeksauce, ok then try to restart the x, just press ctrl + alt + backspace, then type startx again

U know what
I thought that it was going to be more simpler

i have a broken package, it says that i have to reinstall it but it wont and i try to remove it and it cant either...

In breezy I replaced an ISA sound card with a CS4281 PCI card. Now only root has sound. How can normal users have sound too?

since i was installing on an external hard drive

SirBob1701 lol that happened to me before

cows x isn't even running

SirBob1701 until i got my laptop

yeah..they say my build-essentail is already latest version

lol

add them to the sound group

geeksauce, it ctrl + alt + backspace will refresh your settings

you've installed build essential before?
hang on a sec

i guess this will be a good lesson, even fi youu're installing an OS to an external drive, backup before you start, crap happens

so do you know how to bridge a connection?

hey need some help whit wine hq repository file

sure i know that now

btw, can i assume my linux-headers-386 for intel 32 bit pc

hello everyone...

any ideas were to get the update

but back to my problem

Felarin - is it possible that the adapter I bought doesn't support anything but WEP?

SirBob1701, I only know how to do it for 2 routers

a tool that would recover my data

good lessons are rarely easy ones.

anyone?

SirBob1701, not for a direct connection

yes it is possible

i did a update but wont work?

ok

does anyone know if there is a program that is available like alcohol120? for burning dvds?

a free tool to recover data from a hfs partition?

hmm

cows same deal

Rex, I think k3b does it?

mister MacDrunk
sir

geeksauce, hmm

excuse me

btw, can i assume my linux-headers-386 for intel 32 bit pc

geeksauce, ok lets try something else

yes eljbone whats your Q

cows.. ok thanks. I will go check

R U good with troubleshooting mac's

lol
r u good at speling?
lol

what ya need eljbonw

what's your kernel version?/

I was installing ubuntu on an external drive

type uname -a

ill do my best to help

geeksauce, first lets reconfigure the xorg.conf

tell me the kernel version

and

geeksauce, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg

and ...
well

how can i force a re-download and reinstall a package??

COWS I'M THERE

yes 386 is correct btw.

2 UTC 2007 i686

oops

the installations failed

geeksauce, it worked?

i was doing the partition thing U know

dang caps lock gremlin

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpSamba

Why isn't the 'su' command accepting my password?

so?

okay

and i partitiones my xternal drive right

because there's no password for the root account

cows i mean i'm in the configuration

you have to set it up manually

yes

apt-get the command you told me, but exclude build essential

geeksauce, in the dpkg-reconfigure?

ticky, how would I do that?

nstat -g prints 'group membership' or how is it called in an English man 8 netstat?

sudo passwd root

eljbone were u from?

and then i named my mac's hard drive type newworld

smbmount //myserver/myshare ~/mnt I assume myserver is the name of the local machine? or is it literally myserver

or sudo su

xenex use sudo

btw, it compiles my kernel modules automatically, vmware i mean

whats a good backup tool? is there any that will also keep versions?

sudo su -

Qt4 application dialogs aren't centered - is this a bug?

sudo r0X

you're probably missing the devel packages

they appear in the top-left corner instead

Thanks.

cows, yes

Just use rsync and schedule a cronjob

and now

geeksauce, well follow the instructions, make sure you choose vesa driver

then what happend after you name your hdd newworld?

so do i use linux-headers-386 or linux-headers-686

use 686

i didn;t name it ... i actually change the partition's type to newworld

thanks...

what are you doing?

do they also have -devel packages?

pleas mr eljbone write the hole idea on one line please

so

you'll probably find they are -dev packages not -devel

how can I undo that

unless you're doing something special, you want -generic

he's installing linux headers

!enter | eljbone

Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!

it says that the package is bad or inconsistent, how can i fix this?!!!

smbmount //[name or IP]/[share] [mount point

he should have generic if he updated his system recently
did you?/

psemu-input-omnijoy package is broken

i.e., don't use arch-specific

is the name or IP of the windows client, or of the linux box that I am trying to install samba?

so eljbone you saying you repartition a hdd you have win installed on it??? thats what your saying??

if that fails, Try mount -t smbfs -o username=Username,password=PaSsWoRd //serverorip/share /mount/point

cows my card is AGP...it is saying PCI:1:1

yeah..i update al the time

install generic

i restarted my mac hoping for a succesfull linux installation and it didn;t happen and now i can not boot OSx

seos what you trying to do?

geeksauce, dont worry about that , thats just the bus

smbmount mount a share in other machine

sudo apt-get install linux-headers-generic

ok thanks guys

then it is the ip address host or the name
of the windows machine

i want to my my mac's hard drive as good as it was before i change the partition type to newworld

but, you can do this with nautilus
Aeos

i run ur command..got problem..man Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)

is the location of the video card in the computer. not what type of card the gfx card

k, i just said "sudo apt-get clean vmware-player" and then "sudo apt-get install vmware-player" , hope it works

but, you can do this with nautilus

I have multiple soundcards connected to my computer. How do I choose which one is used?

do you have synaptic open?

anyone can speak malay?

eljbone do you saying you have a mac and you try to install a ubuntu linux and you repartition your hdd so you can used and now you whant to redo all that???

yeah

pls close synaptic or update manager

anyone here use banshee music player? im trying to figure out why it gives me this error when i try to import these files: http://img482.imageshack.us/img482/3603/screenshotld0.png

is there something like ultramon for gnome?

only type smb://[ip or name] in the address bar

you'll need to close it

this an is english channel only, sorry.

pls close synaptic or update manager
it's linked to apt-get
you can only use one @ a time

then i should speak english

Montaro, non !! je parle francais .. NO yo ablo espanol , WEE lol..

i'm newbie in ubuntu

cows we're making progress... i got x started but resolution is 8 bit and gross looking

well

geeksauce, easy to fix

they say it is latest version ...

hmm...

Hi

anyone can guide me, i had a problems

then your system has the requisites

shit, it still fails!!!!!!!!!!

with my hardware

hmm it seems to be timing out

can you paste me the exact error you got while trying to install vmware?

when I changed the type of the hard drive I didn't format it

wow that is quite a few exclamation points

plz anybody help,

I added the Computer, Home, and Trash icons to my desktop through gconf-editor, now they cannot be removed. Any ideas?

geeksauce, just open up the xorg.conf, and scroll down to screens.. change the DefaultDepth to 24.. im pretty sure its like that

What's the problem

did you run vmware-config.pl

lol

eljbone first you need to be sure you didt kill your macs partition, cause if thats the case you need to boot your mac whit a OSX cd or dvd so you can make a complete install

radeon9000, exitgy(usb) and winfast pvr crad

after installing the vmware package?/

I fear helping that number of exclamation points, you can't trust them

cows ok hang on

maeth whats the prob?

geeksauce, ok

seems like i had wasted mine as well ur time guys...sorry about that... still downloading the vmware

the installation ocurred on an external drive not on the internal drive

did you get the right copy of ubuntu?

yes i did
ubuntu for ppc

lekremyelsew, k , i used to work with vmwareplayer

i think thats what he did.

did it work from live cd?

i thought you had trouble installing it? you mean you're still downloading it?

yes
i;m here with the live cd

maeth and?

Felarin, lol

eljbone please be more specific, what the heck you what to do??????

i can not boot ubuntu nor osx

then partition is wrong, can't you just run installer again?

allow me to translate for you.

lekremyelsew, and then it said that an update was on the webpage, i installed it, and now it doesnt run, then i tried to reinstall it

MacDrunk, that doesn't make sense

dude said he tried to install it and it didn't work

Felarin, lol

how can you install when you're still downloading it? you should get a broken pipe error

lol

no i am reading this book.. Ubuntu Hacks... they told me i had to install this prerequiste ... before i install vmware

i love ubuntu

do you what to have your mac osx read your external drive as before the linux install???

lekremyelsew, via synaptic, and it failed and says that there is this brocken package

no need
you have all you need
just install the packagr

i *think* he tried to install Ubuntu onto an external drive, he renamed his mac drive newworld something, and now he can't boot either drive, so he's here on a live cd, pleading for wisdom, eljbone does that sum it up?

and run vmware-config.pl,
and run vmware-config.pl

maeth what os r u running?

yes
that's it

Felarin, you can tell him to find disk-utility in mac os x , then to reformat his hdd using 30 x reformat

lekremyelsew, that i have to reinstall it, when i try it fails , and when i try to remove it also... im using ubuntu 7.04

see how easy that was

now i want a refound

huh?

hehehehe
LOL

huh

maeth, what is the offending package's name

well cows i love ubuntu too and been on it one week and i have learn alot

cows, awesome! up and running!

what virtual os r u using?

wrong person dude

MacDrunk nice
geeksauce, cool nice to see it works

lekremyelsew, i was using win xp

boo.

Felarin, ok cool

you setup ext3 filesystem and some swap right?

That you everyone, I have been using Ubuntu for about 3 Months .. Glad I can help !
Thank*

lekremyelsew, /var/cache/apt/archives/vmware-player_1.0.2-2_i386.deb
it says failed on process

!offtopic | Cows

#ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!

eljbone hahahahahahahahhaha sorry dudes but if you mess whit the best hosting os (UBUNTU) you need to acept the consecuenses of your own acts and BE MAN

yes i did

bruenig, wat?

cows brb

?..lol

maeth you have a lot have important stuff on virual machein?

geeksauce, well im going to sleep nigjt
geeksauce, night*

Indy

!offtopic | bruenig

#ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!

ok

Cows, I was on topic, you were not

ubuntu doesnt want to display up to 1280 x 1024 with my radeon 1600, even though it is supported by the card and ye monitor.
halp?

was just wondering what that statement was all about, thats all...lol

bruenig, dont worry about it , i had just finished helping ppl

lekremyelsew, yeah... A LOT!

im trying to say that he need to read all the stuff on linux hosting before messing whit liux thats all

penguin mousepad /etc/X11/xorg.conf edit the bottom listing

bruenig, was just saying that i was using it for a short time, so anyone that wanted to learn can

cows, back. now i'm on the linux box

geeksauce, cool, glad it works

oh ok, i already told him that, ..lol,, when he first game in

lekremyelsew, but still its just the vmx file, i can back it up

penguin u got nvidia?

anyone?

i'm trying to figure out why anyone would mess with installing another OS, and not do a complete backup, but thats just me. i'm catious like htat

geeksauce, well im going to bed.. good night

maeth back up all of it for now

i tried almost 5 hours to install my vga card

i been in and out of linux machines for some time now, also use some other releases of linux, like suse, and redhat, but like this one most

cows... it's my day off tomorrow, so i'm gonna hit the boxed wine and watch tv till i pass out :-D

radeon doesnt mean nvidea

cows, night man

have you tried Fedora?.. its a good one

no im not

not as good as the *buntus, but good.

lekremyelsew, allready done

that was a partial fix. I now have startup sound, but sound apps complain about missing plugins.

Can Ubuntu support a school network?

Which sound app? Just go in to the application and change the output plugin to alsa

Beyond the thin client solution?

do you by chance have the ubuntu install cd?

any network

andrew____, define what you mean by 'support' it can do samba/printing/other server tasks.

well what i told you before was ages ago, i had and old pc and i now im runing ubuntu on a laptop

oh crap, it still isn't running at 1280x1024... what's the fix for that again? i lost the link

hey guys whats a good program to burn an iso image file?

I want central administration of user accounts, files, etc. with client login.

lekremyelsew, yes i do,

whatever tries to open mp3 & mpeg files from the home browser

I've had the problem where even though some sound apps could detect the existing alsa, some couldnt, in which case, i simply recompiled the latest alsa on my system and recompiled the apps and it worked.

/var/cache/apt/archives/vmware-player_1.0.2-2_i386.deb
Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

We want a mix of thin and non-thin clients.

You need the w32 codecs package to open mpg files or wmv files.

scroll up and the fix was use your plain text editor on /etc/X11/xorg.conf to change the resolutions listed there

that used to have win xp on it, the only think i dont like the other realeses is that they dont use to have a prog like ubuntu synapes on those days so every installations were to be done in a terminal

MrMazda

I though I installed that over a year ago for the old sound card

Can you open those files with root?

no

isn't there a way to re-run to autoconfig script that runs when you initially install?

you better not do that

maeth when vmplayer boots up does what happens?

Just adjust the sound output plugin to alsa, if alsa dosen't work, try OSS

can't try root X login now - kid's trying to use her puter

that sounds hard and I'm very lazy

What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your running kernel? [/lib/modules/2.6.20-16-generic/build/include]
At this stage. I press ENTER... then i get this man...Unable to build the vmmon module.
and execution is aborted... any ideas

any ideas on how to update a wine HQ APT repository

At this point, sound is enabled for your users, it's down to application level now.

any thoughts?

still not work.

The reason why it's unable to build is probably because of a bug

lekremyelsew, nothing, it doesnt start the aplication... it says starting .... and then it closes, but i dont even see a screen... nothing

try to get the patched vmmon and vmnet files from google and follow the instructions and then rebuild

ooh, i thought the image host was corrupt

wget -q http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/387EE263.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add - then do the command sudo wget http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/sources.list.d/feisty.list -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/winehq.list if you use feisty

you only have to do it once

i try to do it on system.. admin...software sources but i keep give me a error that the file is not found

if you dont want all the trouble, install virtualbox.

why are you building from source, anyway?

maeth what was the update u got for, WinXP or vmplayer?

dudaz, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=448110
scroll down a bit

oh... and will it work if i us the older version....

he's not, hes running the vmware installer, it autobuilds the modules for his running kernel
if your kernel is the older version, yes

What's the best place to start if I want to have client files administered on a server. LDAP?

yeah...i use the autobuilder..

Hello I have a CD-less boot question. I've followed all the steps and managed to get the netboot working where it loads grub, then downloads the iso. My question is, I already have a copy of the iso on 3 different harddrives (I've got 4installed). Is there anyway I can rig it to install from there instead of having to wait for it to download (again)

but since you updated recently, it should be the latest, i believe the bug is as of .15 kernel

and you have linux-headers-$(uname -r) installed?

logemin

dudaz, post #7, especially

the older version as in the "2.4"

do i need to follow all the line including -0-

lekremyelsew, vmplayer

yes he has the latest generic headers installed.
it's a bug dude, i fixed it

just shove those two commands in there word for word, it works

hey

i had the same issue when reconfiguring vmware for the latest kernel

vmwareplayer, it was the ver 2.0, but i just wanted to have it working like before...

you have to download 2 files and put them in specific locations to fix the issue

maeth have u tried re-installing it

i

irc.freenode.net

i have a radeon x1600, and it doesnt want to display 1280 x 1024
why?

nope

I just upgraded from edgy to fiesty (7.02) and now my touchpad does not work...everything was working fine b4 the upgrade....can anyone direct me to a fix? I have a synaptics ps2 in my lappy

gimme a sec...i am waiting for the page to load...

is there a way to configure the Win key to launch the Applications menu?

it wont

*bump* Anyone have an idea for my boot situation?

this one work wget -q http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/387EE263.gpg

dont get me wrong
older version does not mean 2.4
previous release versions of 2.6 is fine

lekremyelsew, thats what i cant do !

but this one didnot -O- | sudo apt-key add

lekremyelsew, it gives me that error...

anyone know any easy way to obfuscate an ip address?

i need to look up obfuscate in the dictionary

just proxy?

lol

do i need to fill in the full line or do a separate comman on the -0- ???

sudo apt-get update

shld i copy and paste the whole thing...or line by line

i have a radeon x1600, and it doesnt want to display 1280 x 1024. any one with halpz?

me and my friend want to join the same poker game, but it wont let us because we have the same ip, any idea of a workaround?

dudaz, line by line

hehe

dpkg: error at procesing /var/cache/apt/archives/vmware-player_1.0.2-2_i386.deb (--unpack):
it tries to stop the ethernet vmware service and then it fails...

logmein are u there?

If i wanted to run a liveCD in VMware... Sould i install the server hosting or the Client package???

hey guys... i just got ubuntu working reasonably well, i was just wondering what the differences between Gnome and KDE are..... are they significant ???/

yes

_Ahti, i always install vmware server for such things.

yeah

todd

yes

logmein it work

just install the server

Thanks

yep there two commands

i have a radeon x1600, and it doesnt want to display 1280 x 1024. any one with halpz?

Network Proxy

ToddEDM, you can easially have both on the same system, and just pick which one to use at the GDM login screen

firt command give a public key block right???

get a proxy from sites like proxy4free.com

ok hold on

or install tor

Now since i know that... Could anyone point me to a HowTo about running a liveCD under vmware?

dr_willis....... ummmm explain

they are programmed using different languages and look different, but they pretty much are the same in functionality, there are also specific applications for each DM, aside from generic applications that can be used on both

gdm login?

When it comes to the desktop managers, it's all a matter of preference.

second command conects to wine right?

lekremyelsew, i sent you a PM with a more exact information about the error

is the poker thing access through a web browser?

yeah it is

for a newbie gnome would be the best bet?

ToddEDM (see the private message from ubotu)

for ne1 its the best bet

you might want to just goto a site like http://sliprightby.com then

not newbie, more disabled user

ok i'lll have a look

I bought a super cheap low res BenQ optical Mice, at random times the pointer goes crazy and "teleports" all around for less then a second. Is that fixable?

?

lekremyelsew, if i restart, the service will stop isnt?, then i should be able to reinstall it then...

thanks dude for the help... ... it is finally installable

?

thanks Tritium
lol jester

sure, ToddEDM

told you =P did the patch work?

disabled?

so maybe i will try kubuntu for a bit

i was just following the commmands blindly, but it finally werked

what, gnome has good accessibility features for disabled users

yep, it's easy, just that 1 extra step
virtualbox is even easier though

when i open the java applett in the browser it just goes blank with sliprightby.com

you familiar with wine? there also a #winehq channel

cause if i'm not wrong, the current version of vmware server, 1.0.3 is it not?
that one dosen't support usb 2.0 devices

do i just add one of the ip addresses into network proxys?

but virtualbox does

Felarin (see the private message from ubotu)

vmware workstation does too but it's not free

I just upgraded from edgy to fiesty (7.02) and now my touchpad does not work...everything was working fine b4 the upgrade....can anyone direct me to a fix? I have a synaptics ps2 in my lappy... Usb mouse works though

=.=

just wanna standardise with collegues..they install vmware in windows

try other proxy sites, some work better than other, that site has others at the bottom of the page

maeth probably

yep its called feisty install disc

yeah, you can use their vms too.

Does anyone know how I can use the netboot method to boot the .ISO from another harddrive instead of having it download from the net?

or you can remote connect

what do I need to do with the install disc?

install it

how can I request ubuntu cd free ?

no-one?

me

shipit.ubuntu.com

i am actually gonna take their images an put in my comp...and try em

i think thats the addy

i dont understand...are you saying that I should go back to the older version?

thx, ToddEDM

like chowmein, only with really thick noodles?

shipit.ubuntu.com

no I said feisty install disc, use it

huh?

thx

yeah um.. #ubuntu-offtopic

i like to help out with an answer when i can, since i ask so many questions

Please share.. lol

do you think if the prong of the i/o shield on a mobo goes into the network adapter and then you put in a wire it will fry the network adapter?

indeed

I upgraded from edgy...dont have the install disc....and i've installed all updates....

when i logout of gnome, i'm taken to a black screen and left with no other option than to hard shutdown. anyone know what's up with this?

dga, you are using gdm or kdm ? as loginmanager ?

whatever comes default on ubuntu. i think gdm

that would be gdm

major system updates never work, you have to do manual method and go back using auto updater just to check for mistakes. its thoroughly trashed now so I suggest using feisty install disc

Thanks, i'm there.

thanks....

do you know what can cause that to happen? can i possibly rid myself of gdm altogether?

er, not really, no

dga sudo apt-get install --reinstall gdm and check if it works better

logmin

did you follow the upgrade procedures?

anyone know the path to the php5 binary? i checked /usr/bin

logmein the pb key failes

yes....everything went smoothly...only problem I have is the mouse...everything else is great

well it display a erro

you've inspected /var/log/Xorg.0.log?

looking at it, but nothing is sticking out...what shold I be looking for? error?

what is a transparent proxy server?

yes, designated with (EE)

reinstalling gdm seemed to have worked

had anyone sound errors with 7.04? i have usb audio

when trying to run nm-apoplet i get "/bin/sh: /usr/bin/esd: not found" .. any ideas?

you should not have to resort to reinstalling from scratch.

dga, great

thanks

gnychis, I would go with nm-applet

dunno, sounds like it reports that its a proxy, doesnt hide the fact

how can I get out of X completely? i know how to get to the console while X is running, but what if I'd just rather close X?

probably wont make a difference

it really sucks.. I love the ubuntu community and I love ubuntu as a distro, but I prefer KDE and Kubuntu is very buggy

(EE) Synaptics Touchpad no synaptics touchpad detected and no repeater device, (EE) Synaptics Touchpad Unable to query/initialize Synaptics hardware.

why do you say that?

logmin

GSF1200S, you have others to pick from

dga, sudo init3 or sudo killall gdm

isn't that what i'm doing?

ok cool

had anyone sound errors with 7.04? i have usb audio

can to the command again

thanks

gnychis, I thought you said nm-apoplet

try mepis?

typo

(EE) PreInit failed for input device "Synaptics Touchpad" thats all I found for the touchpad

sounds like a missing module that should be loaded.

how do i edit the kernel? is it the same process as with gentoo?

im looking for fast, stable, and fast (again)
but most other distros dont have a cool community

Fast, use Xubuntu.

thats big when trying to fix stuff and make things happen

I think you are right: (II) UnloadModule: "synaptics" what do I do about it....where can I find the missing module

Fluxbuntu

What is a 'raw socket' as in man netstat(8)?

flux is nice, but to me, its not as usable as flux.

I dont care for XFCE YET... I think ill be looking at it in a year.

well KDE is pretty zippy for me

whats a really fast KDE distro

see if it's found with "cat /proc/bus/input/devices

GSF1200S, this it not a trivia channel, stay on topic

there really isn't one.. KDE is probably the "heaviest" o the GUIs
lol, a trivia channel
?

sorry.. it wasnt a question designed to spark any wars.. lol.. Im just curious

chroot . /bin/sh -i ;;; I get: /bin/sh: /lib/tls/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.4' not found (required by /bin/sh)

nope....not in there...

and I agree with you IndyGunFreak.. although memory wise Gnome seems to use more for me, not that its bad

how do I make a file world readable and usable?

do you have build essentials installed?
well, my experience has been completely opposite of that

IndyGunFreak:: I'm not sure ... been a long time since I checked;;; how might I check ?

check through this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticsTouchpad
it's build-essential

ok..
open synaptic, and do a search for build-essential

How can i run a LiveCD on VMWare Server?

Hmm.. must be a difference in setup.. Im still thinking about coming back to gnome.. KDE is nice, but its bugs get old.. ubuntu is a solid distro

I think it has to deal w/ the dir I'm chrooting into; that doesn't have that file ... which puzzles me too
thanks Indy

thanks man...i understand its a very common problem....just havent been able to find a common solution for the past hour or so
i'll check the site

Ahti.. mount the iso image under the CD/DVD section?

could be, truthfully, i'm not to good at compiling... I've learned, if its not in the repository, its not meant for me to have it..lol
what are youu trying to install?

i'm making a busybox live cd

Iso image? I've got the cd popped in

make the file world readable and usable?

oh geez, thats way beyond me..lol

how do you check which video driver xorg is using?

please run "apt-cache policy xserver-xorg-input-synaptics" to make sure you have that installed

!ask

Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question

Hi. Using Ubuntu 7.04 AMD64 here on an HP laptop. Works great, except when I return from hibernate I have no sound. Any idea how to go about finding out what is the problem and how to fix it?

I am a total noob with VMware...

ih70.. sounds like an ACPI problem

Just specify in VMWare the CD .iso image and boot from it

one way: grep Driver /etc/X11/xorg.conf

ouch, and im using virtualbox

i'm on it...

meaning you have it installed?

!vmware | _Ahti

great, thanks!

VMWare Player is in Ubuntu's !Multiverse repository (package "vmware-player"), and http://www.easyvmx.com/easyvmx.shtml can create VMs for it. For VMWare Server, instructions can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware - See also !virtualizers

Are you using VMWare Server or VMWare Player?

it comes back with this....xserver-xorg-input-synaptics:

Hi.

VMware Server

build-essential seems not to be what I need (based onthe description) ... brb

sexauer

please dont' paste next time, okay
?

VMWare Server is also in Ubuntu 7.04, but in the "Commercial" repository

np...sorry

!virtualizers | _Ahti

There are several solutions for running other operating systems (or their programs) inside Ubuntu, while using the native CPU as much as possible: !QEmu (with !KQemu or !qvm86), !VirtualBox, !VMWare, as well as !WINE and !Cedega for Windows applications

In the VMWare server host console you can add a new CD rom device (if you need to) and you can boot from it

i know i have VMware Server installed and all,

hello everyone!

Thanks ubuntu - I can not see any reason why the dummy people prefer to use windows -- as i find ubuntu is much easier for the PC beginners

where do i install nautilius scripts?

I would like to report a good side effect after I have been with ubuntu for nearly 3 months

/join #ubuntu

you're already here

FreeNode

There is no good MySQL tools inside ubuntu -- and because of this -- I build one -- and would like to promote my freebie here

no good mysql hosting tools?

which tools did you not find?

MySQL Sidu -- Free MySQL Client for ubuntu -- check out here : http://mysql.sidu.googlepages.com

I installed qsynaptics and it tells me that I dont have the synaptics driver installed....

okay, please don't advertise here

And some windows guys warns me to change the title to MySQL client -- instead of "for ubuntu" -- well -- I tested, MySQL sidu also works for windows
OK! sorry - I m not adv here

anybody get Cstrike to run off retail via wine?

You are probably asking about the ~/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts

netstat -g lists: "eth0 1 224.0.0.251" What is the IP address 224.0.0.251 used for?

when trying to run nm-applet i get "/bin/sh: /usr/bin/esd: not found" .. any ideas?

in70 thank you :-)

alguien de habla española

danix (see the private message from ubotu)

I checked SQLyog -- and feedback that SQLyog can also be run by wine -- i do not know how to use wine

I believe 224. addresses are supposed to be used for broadcast or multicast protocols

please make sure you have the psmouse and evdev modules loaded (sudo modprobe psmouse evdev)

I would like ubuntu 7.10 to add MySQL Sidu to your source -- that's all

Do you believe that this is a general rule?

You hablo un poquito

http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/archive/index.html dpkg -i is command to install then follow instructions here: http://www.winehq.org/site/download-deb winecfg and regedit are commands you need to know

ran that....nothing came back....

not here, please.

how do i make a text (server) executable ?

I am not sure. I believe I have seen it a lot in Windows being setup as a multicast network

try #ubuntu-offtopic

make sure they're autoloaded at boot by placing them in /etc/modules (list them in that file)

i m totally a pc dummy -- and i do not know much computer -- as i can do nearly anything in ubuntu -- i do not buther to install wine

i thought it was chmod a+x ()

I will enquire about that. Thank you.

gracias solo necesitaba un poco de ayuda en linea

--well --you --just --need --to --try --it

whats the executable command

yes -- i m not adv my freebies here -- only because so many kind feedbacks about MySQL Sidu -- so that I would like to share with you guys -- as i can not find any mysql free tools inside your package manager -- that's all

psmouse was in there...but not evdev, I added that after psmouse

there are many mysql tools. You should check the universe and multiverse repositories
try restarting X with those modules loaded now

how can i disable beeps in the console?

i'll give it a shot....thanks for the help, i'll bbiaf

?? well i tried and could not find any -- anyway - i have already made one

Maybe it is an ACPI problem. I am looking for pointers on how to go about finding more and eventually figuring out what is the cause of the problem

do you just care about the gnome terminal? There is a simple preference you can set. Otherwise, you can set an option in ~/.inputrc, or system-wide in /etc/inputrc

i installed wine once -- not sure what to do -- so i deleted it -- the good thing for wine is easy to delete - instead of un-install it -- hehe

How do I set up Ubuntu to use all my mouse buttons?

yanas -- what type of mouse?

a4tech

no idea

you'd really want to uninstall the package

hey guys my glx is slow

how can close your tab ?

1224 fps

uh

what do you mean ?

hey guys my glx is slow

Muahahah! Now i can run my favorite security distros on my favorite distro :P

1224 fps

if you install it, and want it removed, you uninstall it, rather than deleting sytsem files by hand

Thanks to VMware Server

is there a way i can speed it up

Isn't there just a general way to use all of my mouse buttons?

how many do you have? Normally you need not do anything special.

thanks - i also think so -- but actually you can simply delete wine --- sorry i m talking about xbox ? i forgot what virture machine i installed last time -- sorry

I have 5 buttons, and want to use the Forward and Back ones.
The main three work. Wheel / First and Second.

ubuntu uses packages. While you _can_ delete files, you really should uninstall packages.

but i think ubuntu still need to improve -- i have already seen many many better tools in ubuntu that i have not used in windows

what is the +exec command for ubuntu

Assassin`: chmod +x

yes i just up one important feed back for ubuntu -- i can not upgrade thunderbird from 1.5 to 2.0

you may need to manually edit your xorg.conf file. have a look at this site: http://adterrasperaspera.com/blog/2006/06/20/logitech-g5-review-under-linux/

why is that ?

no to execute

whats a good tv turner that works on ubuntu?

plz help, i have succefully reinstall vmware but now i have this error when i start the VM
expecting 138.0, got 161.0.
You have an incorrect version of the `vmmon' kernel module.
Try reinstalling VMware Player.

restarted x...still not working

why the update check is grey in thunderbird and firefox ? dummy like me even do not know how to install a software after download it

As it says you have one version of VMWare Player and a different version of the kernel module. Which version of Ubuntu are you running?

i m 100% rely on package

1.5 is the latest version in the feisty repos

does anyone know of a way to share desktop settings between users? Like, I want icon's on my desktop to be the same with root account, and user accounts.....can it be done?
Where one affects the other

programs updateing theirselfs is sort of not how things work under ubuntu. Ya use the package tools to update things.

What is the command to edit a file in root user mode?

[H]Elipsn: perhaps sabayon?

[H]Elipsn: Probably can create symbolic links between the different account folder.

but thunderbird can be upgraded from 1.5 to 2 in windows -- i guess ? why you guys hard coded that thunderbird can not be upgraded in ubuntu ? do not joke if my question too stupid

hmmm

sudo

sudo gedit FILENAME

Hi, got a problem with my new eggdrop - nevermind what tcl script i load (for public commands) the bot does not react to the commands - any ideas what might be a typical noob error here?

a12345, windows has it where every user can do admin tyope things.. linux/ubuntu aproacees it from the opposite direction.

see here: http://www.linuxtv.org/v4lwiki/index.php/Main_Page

a12345, a user Could install their own specific version. i guess.. then upgrade it. But not 'system wide'

a12345, the idea is that your software gets upgraded when you upgrade to a new release of ubuntu

but i can sudo -- still not able to upgrade in ubuntu

this is where I'd start: http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Main_Page

a12345, its BEST to use the package manager tools (adept , synaptic and so forth) and update things as they enter the updates/repositories

I told you - 1.5 is the latest version there is in the repos

a12345, using a programs own built in update feature (which is sort of rare under linux anyway) is not a good idea.

i do not know how package manager works -- can you guy add TB2.0 into it, so that i can install TB 2

does Ubuntu accept free software written in Java?

a12345, no, you're supposed to wait for gutsy
that's the idea at least

oh, wait, that was a stupid question

ok -- i can wait

!info mozilla-thunderbird gutsy

mozilla-thunderbird: Transition package for mozilla-thunderbird rename. In component main, is optional. Version 2.0.0.4~rc1-0ubuntu1 (gutsy), package size 57 kB, installed size 104 kB

^^

a12345, that way packages are well tested against eachother

Thunderbird is being renamed?

Hello

I also hope when ubuntu7.10 comes, i can play rm and rmvb

a12345, actually
a12345, there's a mozilla testing repository
that shouldn't interfere with the packages that come with ubuntu

i prefer to use ubuntu default software --

!moztest

Can someone possibly help a ubuntu newb?

or i simply delete all my rm collections actually I never watch a second time

Go to the chucha

you can play real media on ubuntu now

bye

Hey Matt.

Just ask your question

greetings wise one

OK I don't know anything about linux, basically

i read many posts says realone not working well in ubuntu -- so i m scared to install

A friend was helping me install ubuntu
and I don't have any CDs (I'm on vacation) so he had me use wubi to install it

a12345 (see the private message from ubotu)

I rebooted and ran ubuntu and it went through the install and then had issues with my X server (Which is apparently GUI)
Because I have an ATI graphics card, according to my friend

hmm, what does log file show now?

He said he knows how to get the proper drivers if I had a wired internet connection
But I'm using my grandparents' neighbors' wifi so I don't have a wired connection

!enter | baconbits

Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!

ati drivers are supplied on the install CD. You don't _need_ the proprietary ones for it to work

i'll check it, but when I run modprob neither module shows up still though

baconbits, which verion of ubuntu are you running?

baconbits, do you know what ati card it is?

He said he had the same error
It's an ATI Mobility radeon (Laptop card)

to see if it's loaded

baconbits, ati has made many mobility radeons

hi CPU Frequency Scaling Monitor 2.18.0 gives no options to choose governors. cpufreq-info shows 5 governors .

thanks -- also i hope in 7.10 DVD can be played like window media player -- there is no title short cut in the ubuntu's ...? and i have to watch all 30 hours DVD at once -- square eyed

baconbits, do you know the model number? something like X1600, or 9800

I'm checking

okay...they are loaded....checking logfile....

X1400

no ideas on my public commands problem with eggdrop anyone?

Hey all. This may be a bit of a stupid question but I tried to install a black theme (ubuntu studio) on edgy but it's only changing the window borders. It's not changing the whole window. Does anyone know why this would be happening?

!xconfig | baconbits

To reconfigure your X server, open a console and type « sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg » - To configure only the driver and resolution, type « sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh » - See also !FixRes

baconbits, run that second command and choose the "vesa" driver

Hi, Whi I don't have xserver-xfree86
???

because you have xserver-xorg now

hello, im having a hard time installing supercollider, it asks for "X11/Intrinsic.h", i already installed libxt-dev and all available related packages, but still no luck, any ideas?

Is it going to be completely obvious how to do that? I'm not too familiar with linux syntax or whatever

yes, it's a dialog (like a wizard, but text-based)

good evening (or whatever time it may be for you). I installed ubuntu, and It won't let me su root from a terminal in X. everything else seems to work fine. Am i going to have to reboot in single user mode and change the root password?

Ok thanks! I'll be back if I have any more issues!

!sudo | renic

sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.

ok -- thanks - enough break
cheers

Ubuntu uses sudo

All right tritium Have I to edit then xserver-xorg to have 3D?

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to monitor a xubuntu file server - like load, running processes, network monitoring, whos accessing samba share etc?

no

You can do "sudo su", provide your password and you get a "root" console

.. ok but why would su not work?

same as before...it says it cant find the synaptics touchpad device

greg_, what video card do you have?

i-like-beans: webmin.com

because the root account is disabled

hello, im having a hard time installing supercollider, it asks for "X11/Intrinsic.h", i already installed libxt-dev and all available related packages, but still no luck, any ideas?

ih70, sudo -i is much better if you're going to do that

sudo -i would be more appropriate

what is the name of the program that automatically installs some not-supported software?

As I said you need root privelge to run su, so you need to run "sudo su"

see above

I have Nvidia, And I have install now the glx crdlb

if a noob were trying to install nvidia drivers for a geforce 6600 in Ubuntu, would Linux IA32 be the correct ones to download?

it says a bunch of junk about /dev/wacom, not sure what thats all about

jc (see the private message from ubotu)

greg_, did you use the restricted manager?

You are correct. "sudo -i" is a better choice

sexauer, that was apparently put there by the dev team

that any problem?

greetings tritium may I pm you

i-like-beans: smbstatus ?

O_o I think I cant undertstand

you followed the instructions to install nVidia restricted drivers?
okay

sexauer, I recently asked about that problem on the kubuntu channel

greg_, are you on ubuntu feisty?

please tell me u got it fixed....pretty please

that's included in the default xorg.conf

isn't that a bit odd? su is for assuming root priveledge... If i was logged in as a super user I wouldn't need to run su... lol... anyways, not it is complaining that I must be in a terminal... as if i weren't...

All right, I ave install restricted 2.6.20...

went back to console and it worked ok.

Does "sudo ls" work ?

which did you do? sudo -i?

I switched to tty2 and ran "sudo su"

ih70, you shouldn't need sudo for ls anywhere

just wouldn't work in an Xterm

don't use sudo su. Use sudo -i

systemadministrationrestricted manager?

can I just put myself in the wheel group and run su directly? makes much more sense.

ubuntu doesn't use the wheel group. It uses the admin group to grant sudo priveleges.

sexauer, that message is given to everyone who doesnt have a wacom tablet

j #ubuntu-offtopic

sexauer it is not an error

No, I go try

yes, but I habitually use "sudo ls" to force sudo to prompt me for my password, so it does not prompt me again. Anyway in the case he was asking I was trying to figure out if sudo work for him at all

any one get ubuntu to run in virtual PC?

Linux doesn't use a wheel group. Although, the wheel/su thing works a lot like sudoers/sudo.

sup yall

did you see the URLs I sent you?

yes i have run ubuntu in vmware and in virtualbox

Yes, I have at work

just looked back and saw them. thank you

no problem, just making sure

did you have any issues getting it started? whenever i boot up the screen goes nuts in the VPC
ah i'm asking about virtaul PC. i don't have vmware installed

Not even "cat /dev/urandom" gives gnugp enough random bytes. It's demandning.

play with the mouse and keyboard

!vnc

VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely. It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX

No issues. But if I recall correctly I am running a somewhat old version of Virtual PC

and yes, it does also just take a while.

hi all, I was wondering what path my digital camera is

should be under /media/

can someone tell me the command to make a new directory from the termanal

Flannel, well, it's on an servercomputer, not really much i can do with the mouse especially since im not really 3 feet away from it ^^

mkdir

thanks

Nicholas, /dev/video0 maybe/.
?

ah i'm running the newest one which might be the issue

synaptics_drv.so is being loaded at the begining of the log.....with no error....if that helps any

Then you're going to just have to live with the network card (which just means waiting and doing other stuff)

that's good.

How do I get the Terminal to display a list of processes as the CPU executes them?

just keeps saying it cant find the hardware....weird since it worked in the previous version prior to upgrade...no probs

Well supposedly the latest one should have official support for Linux guests. Not sure which distros are officially supported though. I guess RedHat and maybe Suse

as in a constantly scrolling list of events, not a real-time summary of the various processes and their stats, but a running log of what the CPU is doing?

after a reboot all my shared and mounted drives went from /media/hdd3, etc.... to /media/sdd3

Flannel, Yeah (8 ill just sit herem stream some music and wait. (:

how can i fix this?

hmm...

Wii (:

When i connect my digital camera ubuntu sees it and ask if i wish to save the pictures but it has trouble transfering the videos. I want to find the path to the SD in the camera to transfers the videos and pictures myself. The camera is not listed in the media folder though

its done it 2wice

Is this problem while you are booting the LiveCD? Did you try the "safe" option?

tripppy, all drives are SDx now as of the latest Linux kernel

without use. May I be click the buttom?

greg_, yes

i'm going to try again right now so i will tell you

Madpilot, hnx

i forget now i just remember i had issues

thanks

You can type "mount" in a teminal and see if the folder is already mounted

/media is where it's supposed to be.

greg_, that will download, install, and set up the nvidia driver for you

can someone help me with installing java enviroment for firefox

tovella, yeah i know that Madpilot answerd my question

Well, it say that have to reboot. Im going to. Thanks.

I typed mount and got /dev/hda1 on / type ext3 (rw,errors=remount-ro)

thanks. Good night

when is the swap memory used??

is there an ftp daemon built into ubuntu? (i already looked for /usr/libexec/ftpd, but alas - it's not bsd)

can someone help me with installing java for firefox

heck no. You'd have to install one.

My guess is that it's the /dev/sda1 device mounted at /media/disk. The last line

sexauer, what exactly is the problem... do you actually have a wacom tablet and its still giving you the same error
?

Swap is used when the kernel decides it need more virtual memory.

niekie, are you from scoundrels?

after installing ubuntu for the first time, the generic kernel is installed, should i install a more specific kernel?

Hey, I reinstalled linux on a fresh disk and i remebered last time i setup CS with wine i had to specify modelines or something to get it to select resolutions, what woul they have been?

I sure am

gnychis, no

!fr

Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.

What platform are you running? What is the output of "uname -a"

gnychis (see the pm from ubotu)

i upgraded from edgy to fiesty and my touchpad on my lappy stopped working...the touchpad is a synaptics ps/2, was working fine previous to the install

why not? custom kernels are nice.

I can not be on Jabber at the moment though, got to be gone in a moment.

2 UTC 2007 i686

the usb mouse works great...but my built in touchpad no longer works....

dor ubuntu come with sources installed so you can compile and install new kernels with ease? or is it a pain?
dor = does*

is there a better vnc client than what comes in the repos?

You could install a i686 kernel, as opposed to the "generic" i386, but you are not actually going to see any considerable performance difference. I personally would not bother.

renic, I've never tried but I certainly wouldn't reccomend it unless you have a very good reason

thanks for the read

How do you edit .so files?

!generic

Background to the decision to replace -686, k7 and -smp kernels with -generic can be found here https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2006-August/019983.html (the -386 kernel is still available if needed)

very carefully

adrian que es su modelo de scanner?

sabes si te lo detecta?

Try Alt-F1 for the Menu launcher and Alt-F2 for "run". You can then type "gnome-terminal" to get a terminal

you dont they are binaries

thats a lib a binary file most likely

xenex, edit?

oh
meh

sexauer, the synaptics touchpad is loaded

ubuntu en español
???

yeah so do I :P

in Virtual PC (the same as in VMWare) if you click inside the host window it should "grab" the focus and the mouse should start moving only inside the host. You have to press right Control key to release the control. The keys might be different. See in Settings

trying to do the install with the keyboard and see if the installed copy will use the mouse

que?

xenex, if it's a .so, it's a compiled binary, so you'd need the source code

invalid compressed data to inflate ) does that mean archive damage, or unrecognised archive format?

yeah i use vpc for a lot of things. its not grabbing the host mouse

Monteh, what format is it? (what extension)

what is the problem

arent they in phyton or perl usualy? well if there are binary plugins you'll have to recompile it.

but its not working...i load qsynaptics and it says the driver is not loaded

Most likely you are going to have the same problems as in the LiveCD
Not grabbing the mouse is pretty odd

how do i setup a different archive from us.archive.ubuntu.com ?

Did anyone see my question? Should I ask again? I don't want to be annoying _

plus at the bottom of the log, it says that it cant find the hardware

Yeah I said it earlier I can resend it though
I tried using dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh and choosing vesa, but I rebooted after I had completed it all, and I was again presented with a message saying x server wasn't started. if it helps, the error says "No screens"

There should be a way to install the equivalent of "VMWare tools" inside the Ubuntu guest and the mouse should work properly then. Don't remember what it was called in Virtual PC. I use mostly VMWare Server and only have a few "inherited" virtual machines inside Virtual PC. For me the big advantage of VMWare over Virtual PC is the support for USB devices.

well no reason to reboot. to test it type 'sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart'
