Hi. My hardware has started failing on me, so it's time for a new system. Can anyone recommend a passively cooled video card that works with Feisty (and I'm not a gamer!)

main_time_handler

try using avidemux

ok im stuck on step 4 of 7 it shows /dev/sda, dev/sda1 ext3 30gb, dev/sda5 swap 378mb. what do i do from here?

I'd stay away from ati, but nvidia ones should work jsut fine, even when you need a proprietary driver

has anyone got gtkradiant to work?

step 4 of what?

i hate nvidia

What should i put on the root (hdX,X) line of my menu.lst to boot off a usb drive?

ubuntu install

!install

Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues - See also !automate

try nvidia 7300LE ... passively cooled, works great with feisty

lazz0, Unless you love intel you aren't going to have a fun time with linux then

thanks wols_ and NickRivers , I'll look into those

quick question, for some reason nothing is showing up in kicker.. the only way i can switch is via alt-tab

yeah, down with the french! *rabblerabblerabble*

gerard, which ubuntu version are you using?

I got my new ubuntu dell yesterday... this thing is shweet

hi. i have a toshiba tecra s1 with ubuntu feisty installed. the specs for the machine are here: http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/Contents/Toshiba_teg/EU/Others/Brochures/DSTES1_1004E.pdf which specifies the max RAM at 2gb. i have just installed 2gb of RAM, and free -m reports 1011 installed. any ideas why this would be?

does it run kcalc?

i attempted at downloading vlc media player from the add/remove applications function, after 2 minutes of downloading it says failed to recieve a few packages from server and asked me to chose to ignore and continue which i did, therefore, vlc media player hasnt been installed yet

have you seen: http://effet.info/PICT0028.JPG ? what do you think?

lreal - dunno... don't use kcalc but I don't see why not

demonstealer, could be server host probs, just try it again, and again
if it still can't receive some of the packages, try at a later time

yikes

I'm using Ubuntu 7.04
just downloaded 2 days ago and installed, ran the software update

what kind of processor do you have ?

can you open word 2007 docs in OOO?

have you refreshed the repository info before install? Sometimes happens that info get outdated and apt try to download packages that are no more available.

brb... gonna see how doom3 runs on this ubuntu dell

amd64x2

run it "noapic"

morning all

demonstealer you can also open a terminal close the packagemanager and issue apt-get update to make sure that the package database is uptodate and that all repos are accessable

hello

gerard, then there should be an entry for Desktop Effects either in the administration or in the Configuration menu (sorry, got it in german here)

i need some help

also enabled the restricted driver which now gives me full res but desktop effects say @The composite extension is not available:

evenin

demonstealer err sudo apt-get update

can you pastebin the full error?

should i use more then 378 mb for swap?

guys I put a bug report in for this after fiesty was final and still no response ...can anyone here give me alead the library libgtkglextmm-x11-1.0.so.0 was missing from feisty after it was final

no need for pastebin, its short "The Composite extension is not available"

anyway to get this library ... it is not in the repos

giro depends on lots of factors. i don't use any swap

ok, that's short

not very helpful is it?

I'm not going to overclock... rather underclock, since I'm tired of hot, noisy and power sucking computers

did you manually partition the hdd?

I want a system taht brings me as much power/watt and power/euro as possible without it costing me an arm and a leg
and of course it has to be supported well by linux

what i did was use mandriva to format then stuck in ubuntu disk

marsje good luck

define arm and a leg? even consumer cards go up to 500$ easily and then you have SLI/crossfire

use the ubuntu livecd to partition/format/install

stick to intel and nvidia then

that is what im trying to do right now
it wont install because no root file system is defined

I wonder if the "incompatible" bit is due to a firmware loader? Did you have the sound working in Windows, then reboot *without powering off* into Ubuntu Live CD?

why my system gives i386 error when i am trying to install mp3 Driver gstreamer

hey guys

I'm having trouble setting up squid. I've installed squid via apt-get and have it set as a service, but the process immediately disappears after starting it. (ex: sudo /etc/init.d/squid start ; sudo squid -kcheck = squid: ERROR: No running copy)

i know this is a general stupid questin...but how do u register nicsk on nickserv?

how are you trying to install gstreamer? and what error exactly?

google for nickserv

What should i put on the root (hdX,X) line of my menu.lst to boot off a usb drive?\

gordonjcp, don't remember..but it's possible , i got some answers from other channel that i was going to try though

depends as what the BIOS sees it
usually right after the internal harddisks afaik

here's a couple of things I'd like you to try, assuming you've got a) dual-boot and b) enough time

I tried to play .dat video file then it asked for gstremear and when I tried to install then says i386 error (my ubuntu is not connected with internet)

install how?

dee - haven't forgotten about you... think i've found the driver, checking to be sure now

You can't install a package from the internet if you're not connected to the internet

gordonjcp, a) true , b) i'm on vacations and really would like to have this working

boot into Windows, check the sound works, then boot the livecd without powering off and check the sound works, then switch off completely (unplug the mains) for a minute and try the live CD

the BIOS i'm using can't normally boot USB devices, thats why i'm using a grub CD, i think it sees it has hd2,0 but it says invalid partition

and is "i36 error" all it said? cause I don't think so. we need exact error messages

but thats the only valid disk
do i need to add a stage1.5 for ext3?

clear

gordonjcp, doing it as i log of brb

okay guys

while you've got it working in the livecd, try and pastebin the output of lsmod

Do I need internet to install gstreamer ?

ola

oh, and take it to #ubuntu-offtopic ;-)

if your bios can't see so, can grub cannot either. never will. you need to load a kernel from elsewher, which can then see it

i just installed dapper from a cd...i cant burn anymore cds so i'm trying to upgrade to edgy and then eventually to feisty

gordonjcp, roger that

wols, Is there a guide somewhere that can tell me how to do this?

I tried with Add/Remove also

don't know of any ubuntu one. basically you need a kernel (possibly custom) on a floppy or CD

when i try to update to edgy using the updatemanager, i get some gpg errors....when i even try to run apt-get update i get some gpg errors too... i have been able to download applciations...but i cant upgrade beacuse of this gpg error...any help?

I asked you a question. several in fact

and once the kernel on the CD is initalized it can then load the kernel on the USb device?

no. there is no kernel on the USB. the kernel is on CD or whereever. on CD there is only / and such
thing is, BIOS can't access USB drive, but a linux kernel can since it has the needed drivers

what if grub can see the disks but for somereason cant read the filesystem?

Hello, I had a couple of Ubuntu questions, not just due to accessibility quesitons, for the blind linux hosting user, but I wanted to ask a couple of questions here just to see if you folks could help.

then it'S the wrong filesystem

I mounted E drive , my E drive hold video file, when I clicked on that file in file browser then a video player appear

First,

in that player a pop up appear and asked to install Gstreamer
every time says i386 error, my ubuntu is 7.04

I know that Orca in Gnome 2.18 is the default screen-reading utility when used on the Ubuntu desktop. However, I also know that in Feisty itself, Ubuntu includes the Speakup screen reading kernel patched as modules to allow access to the console. Now, I have a couple of very spisific questions.

what more info do you need?

My computer suspend works if I disable Desktop Effects, but every two times I suspend, then fan doesn't slow down

I'm having trouble with running squid. I've installed squid via apt-get and have it set as a service, but the process immediately disappears after starting it. (ex: sudo /etc/init.d/squid start ; sudo squid -kcheck = squid: ERROR: No running copy)

Should I get uswsusp?

I need the info I asked for. which you haven't provided at all. read my questins more carefully

my pc is celeron 2.4 ghz , 512 ram

Anyone know the sync frequencies for a Toshiba Satellite 1410?

wols_ would this guide work http://www.neowin.net/forum/lofiversion/index.php/t269145.html

I wanted to ask first of all, if it is possible to edit a run level system in Ubuntu desktop after installation, to insure that it boots strate away into the text console.
Just in case you seriously do not feel like using Gnome at that moment, etc.

it might
of course it's possible
LCD?

Yeah

It's a laptop screen

LCDs always use 50 or 60Hz

Okay. The next question.

you here?

Can ubuntu server 7.04 run on a PII with 64mb of ram?

yeah

without a GUI

what country did you purchase your acer aspire 3000 in?

should do
more memory would be good though

pity it uses old RDRAM

how can i install this. see I am new to linux so i need some help.

hard to get

what country did you purchase your acer aspire 3000 in?

64MB is the minimum requirement yes

indonesia

or taiwan

you answer my questions first. and installing is done as usual

hello

Over the sixth month period that Ubuntu makes releases, how well do you folks really test the platforms it supports? For example, I have seen some distros such as Gentoo Linux, that allow you to automate the installation process, only to totally mis-configure your kernel in such a way that Software Speech through accessibility crashes with SMP, or perahps an X_64 kernel gets configured as an X86, DMA instructions get disabled, etc.
I would really like to know how stable is Ubuntu Feisty under the AMD 64-bit environment itself? And what about Application usability/accessibility?

do you need a computer for a blind person and don't like frequent upgrades?
the problem with linux on 64bit is proprietary stuff. flash, acrobat, proprietary drivers, etc. linux itself runs very very well under 64bit

hello, does anyone has experience with run-init script from klibc?

Another question.

what answer you want? my native is not english so i could not understand what answer should I give.

I'd use a distro with longe support cycles. ubuntu LTS, debian, RH, etc
neither is mine

hi, how can i open office 2007 document (xlsx, docx) with openoffice_

you asked install how? that right?

I want the EXACT, FULL error message and I want to know EXACTLY how you installed it
or rather, tried

I currently am running Microsoft Windows XP media center edition on my AMD64 Athlon X2 dual-core processor. And I have been wanting to switch strate into Ubuntu. But I am not sure how simple or Windows-Like Ubuntu really is, in particular for my father.

when's the next LTS? 8.10 or something?

give him kde instead. and it depends a bit what your father uses

ok, let me give one minute, I will use pastebin to describe this.

He is not a techy person, and will not stand for me beginning to explain how to use a Linux text terminal, he lacks the skills that I do in using the CLI interface of Linux, and would need a GUI that really resembled Windows.

Catball its relatively easy to skin metacity to look like windows

Or at least that made you feel as if you were on Windows.

as long as you do the admin stuff, any linus is usable for him imho

Heh

give me aminute and i'll find you a link

trying to install feisty from nfs mount, after the boot switches to /root/ (wit unionfs overrides) init is still looking at / instead of /root/, anyone can help?

you can also give him windows via vmware or WINE

hi, how can i open office 2007 document (xlsx, docx) with openoffice_

How about the Gnome desktop?

I'd reccommed WINE of VMware

ok... think I have the necessary driver files... let me upload them to my webspace so you can download them - you'll need them to setup ndiswrapper

less compatible but much much faster

Are you joking?

hi !, I have a problem with deskbar-applet. I go to configuration, search in web plugin, ONLY the primary but when I search, it is in all searchers, and in firefox I only have goole.. any idea ??

no..
Wine is faster than VM ware just not as compatible.

Okay, also here is something else.

because its not an emulator

it will work too. it has mail, web and a text processing app. what more does he need?

"WINE of Vmware" -- Did you mean "WINE over VMware"?

over yeah
sorry :P

Ah, ok

any nfs booting experts? please help, struggling with my problem for 3 days already

hi guys - I'm having problems - my windows borders disappeared

I was going, "What the hell? Would WINE'ing VMware even WORK?"

what was that XP-like metacity theme?

using beryl?

restart metacity

clearlooks or something?

Hi, could someone familiar with kernel upgrades, dpkg incantations and the like please have a look at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=484030 ? Thanks in advance!

I have been wishing to combine server/desktop useage with Ubuntu. Would it be possible for me to install Ubuntu to the drive, install open-ssh-server, and a few other components, run them through the Linux console, and then just use the machine (with the dual-core support and 64-bit processing) as a desktop?

yeah, used it for some times without problems. now I wanted to install the new compiz, but all the window borders are gone

easily doable
!neryl | lorenz

Sorry, I don't know anything about neryl - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

Catball, yes use the desktop CD not server

!beryl | lorenz

beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. Help in #ubuntu-effects

then simply install the required packages through Synaptic

do not use apt-get. use aptitude

Catball, i believe you wanted Ubuntu to look similar to XP for your father?

Apt-get is dependency driven or has dependency related issues.

unable to create `./boot/vmlinuz-2.6.20-16-generic': No space left on device

Dependency driven

hi, how can i open office 2007 document (xlsx, docx) with openoffice?

now just guess what this means?

it'll automatically install any required dependencies

when I clicked .dat file then totem opened a popup appeared. that popup said to install GStreamer.

dee - I found a howto for your broadcom 4318 wifi... go here -- http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=197102&highlight=ndiswrapper+howto

And I don't like apt-get, too many errors occure. I've used Debian itself for a few months, and don't think that Apt-get should be the tool, whoever suggested using aptitude is correct.

olaaa

what happens if you install gstreamer via synaptic?

I believe the newest version of apt-get has greatly improved dependancy handling

olaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

nick

which debian did you use and when?

hotplug mean?

apt-get install apt-get -- ?

This means that you did not read the hyperlinked posting in the Ubuntu forums ... :-)

no. debian suggest strongly aptitude. so unless ubuntu has a different apt-get, don't use it

There *is* more than enough space on the partitions.

wols_ according to this page apt-get was fixed in 6.10
http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/aptitude

I also wonder if Ubuntu can support multi-channel supported sound cards the way Windows does? I am very curious, or would the built-in Alsa drivers in the kernel keep me from using it properly.

I will give aptitude a try, though. Thanks for the suggestion.

Catball, what soudncard is it? If its a creative X-FI then its no go

I just wish to know. I do not wish to make a complete switch to Ubuntu right off the bat.
Especially if this may pose any spisific problems.

Catball, what soundcard is it?

hi. I am trying to install ubuntu 7.04. When it is booting into the install (livecd) it just sits there - Outputiing "Permission denied". It then says something about alsactl error

wols_, aptitude is not really recommended in ubuntu unless one is a bit experienced

RealTechAC97Audio sound-card.

won't help. there is not enough space for some reason. imho, it's your /boot

Can anyone help?

If that helps

why not?

that should be fine, i think thats a motherboard onboard
they generally work near perfectly

Ah
Nice

hiya. I have a usb automount, gnome, hal dpkg question. I hope someone can help.

it does. google for "dmix"

jamesinator, apt-get install apt

wols_, because aptitude can uninstall a complete os just to resolve one dependency

My usb hard drives mount crazily with different names all of the time. It's hard to create playlists. And the filesystems have labels, so they ought to work.

Catball, have you tried the live CD yet?

when i tried to search gstrreamer in synaptic then i did not get any result.

hi, how can i open office 2007 document (xlsx, docx) with openoffice_

only if you mix it with apt in the wrong way. synaptic has the same kind of dependency handling

It was a joke, but thanks...

I've upgraded from the previous ubuntu version. I think hald is kind of screwed. My plan is to uninstall hald completely then reinstall it

because is gstreamer xd

there is a dropdown, which value should i select to search

I also wanted to ask this. How well does Ubuntu test packages before a release? Spisifically, I am curious about tools such as Speech-Dispatcher, and SpeechD-up, and Gnome-Speech, and such.

will that destroy my system?

and as I said: debian deprecates apt-get which means either ubuntu does their own or follow suit sooner or later

I think there is a conversor, search in google docx openoffice

Packages in the official repositories usually are of the highest standard, I can't speak for those in 3rd party repos.

wols_, which is usually the case if apt-get get into problems

There are 109MB free on /boot.

hello...

This should be enough.

zegnus : means I should search gstreamer xd ?

wols_, this is not debian

LOL just use Aptitude.

you are based on debian and your whole package management comes from there

wow did debian really deprecate apt-get?

wols_, ubuntu genarally advises to use apt

Plus, aptitude gives me this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27254/

How do I get the sources for the new Amarok for Kubuntu 7.04 Feisty Fawn? On amarok.kde.org there is only sources for Edgy Eft.

so I guess I won't toast the system,

you have all official repositories on ??

ekhem... i have a question, do you know, how to get on a polish ubuntu irc canal?

thanx i will check it

Is there anyone that knows how / with what program I can resize multiple images at once? Thanx

is it possible to upgrade to gusty from the update-manager?

just for kicks. create a, say, 100MB file and copy it to /boot
a script that calls imagemagick

annoth, /join #ubuntu-pl

I installed ubuntu default and did not do any config changes

Thanks, I will look for that

thanks

!info gstreamer

plz note I am not connted with internet so i ca not use apt-get etc.

Package gstreamer does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas

http://packages.ubuntu.com/cgi-bin/search_packages.pl?keywords=gstreamer&searchon=names&subword=1&version=feisty&release=all
apt-cache search gstreamer | grep gstreamer
and use apt-zip to download the stuff you need then

http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=2912397&postcount=5

Is there a channel spisifically intended for Ubuntu-accessibility questions? Because although I have spisific questions that you people can answer just fine, alot of my questions refference accessibility tools in Ubuntu wich some of you may be totally clueless (no offense intended) about how to use, or be unable to answer my questions due to in-experice.

Already did that: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=2912397&postcount=5

mm ok, you need to put de install CD of ubuntu for install new packages...

inexperience, sorry.

hi. i am looking for a font the looks like Western Writting... any ideas?

herzenstern, dafont.com

In synaptic - repositoris, you have to enable the CD/DVD option

do something dirty: unmount /boot. then create install the kernel. then move away the freshly installed files, mount /boot again and copy the new files in. then run /sbin/update-grub manually of course

How can I set the default keymap for all users (not only X)?

Good suggestion, thanks, will try that.
Are you willing to talk me trough that?

look for a fedora linux accessibility channel or better forum/mailinglist in gernal. not just ubuntu

BRB. I will test the Ubuntu-accessibility channel, but thank you for general-levl assistance.
level

ok, i will try again using synpatic after put my live CD into cd drive. (CD/DVD option is enabled since when I put CD then a pop up appear says that it include packages in synaptic)

BRB.

thanx

Can i run ubuntu sever 7.04 on a P2, with 64mb ram and 6.4gb hd?

I will back tomorrow.

imho, with accessibility questions, the pools is too small so ask general questions and be prepared to do your won config work is best. better results than only relying on a distro
barely. more ram would be better

nafis, without X it should work quite fast

see you, good luck

hi there I'm trying to get some stuff from Synaptic but i am getting this:E: Could not get lock /var/lib/apt/lists/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
Unable to lock the list directory

either you are not root or some other packaging program is having that lock

thanks, trying to convert my home desktop from windows to linux.

`pkg-config --cflags --libs gtk+-2.0` set as an alias in .bashrc, maybe with alias comp='....' and: `wx-config --cppflags` `wx-config --libs` maybe with alias widget='....' so that I can simply do gcc or g++ comp or widget foofile.cpp or .c any ideas why it's returning errors as if I didn't include those options?

BadRobot, are you root?

i will be using only in text mode

ie apt, or aptitude or synaptic are already open

anyone yep
I am

another app open?

hi. I am trying to install ubuntu 7.04. When it is booting into the install (livecd) it just sits there - Outputiing "Permission denied". It then says something about alsactl error

like apt-get in terminal

It seems that I cannot umount /boot, because the device is busy - even after a clean reboot.

how do i install a font (ttf)

Anyone who knows anything about the kernels process scheduling?

lsof, fuser

Strangeness everywhere.

So, when will compiz(-fusion) be the default Window Manager?

what's your question, without the prelims?

Ind[y]: WIR

lsof | grep boot gives me nothing.

i will be using only in text mode in the server edition?? will it run then??

what is WIR?

so,what should i do to fix it?

errors in are one in particular that it cant find header files... if I manually input those options, of course, it's able to find the headers.. is it because of the tildas?

When It's Ready
close the app that has the lock
tildes are a shell expansion, so no

But "sudo lsof | grep boot" shows me that klogd has a lock on /boot/System.map-2.6.20-15-generic.

Is load SMP load balancing broken in Feisty?

yes, of course, but when it will be ready?

How do I resolve this?

hello

Hello, I just read about the ntfs-3g driver that can be used to enable write access to NTFS partitions. Is there anyone here that uses it? What I wanted to know was if its really safe to use it? Are there possibilities of my Windows partition getting messed up?

wols_, any idea why bash is not like the aliases as I wrote them there, of course with '...' replaced with the actual options

I v much doubt it - peeps would be whining

ok can i get some help ?
