what the fuc@ why won't ubuntu play dvds after new-install
try downloading codecs and different apps.... nothing works
any clues ?!?

have you recently started playing around with beryl?

you need the appropriate drivers

For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs

well duh.... downloaded everything I could find. and nothing works... any clues specific drivers that I might need

!dvd | theTrav

please see above

...? dvd?

no.. never got that far.

probably not aimed at me that one

sorry the dvd thing was for someone else

ok, one important question

use my nick so i can see you talking

nn penguins

I need a little bit of help figuring out how to do something.

go ahead.. ask

how can I get ubuntu to store my wireless key so that I don't have to enter a password every time I log on?

just ask..

trying to formulate my question properly

k

currently I have to enter a password to log on, and then another one to access the wireless
I want to enter just one password

it seems you're not the only one to have this issue. Looking in to it there is some weird bug but not everyone seems to have it and no one can agree on what the common factor is: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=340811 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/104470 http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=465239 -- might be of use

thanks mrsn0 ,it is really the xserver-xorg-video-intel driver problem
i can play it now

does lsmod show the driver loaded for your sound card? if you double click the vol control are the volume levels up? nothing muted?

but only using totem

not sure about that one.. I don't use wireless.. do you have encryption enabled?

can anyone help me get the drivers working for my edimax usb wifi adapter?

I want to set up a server with a database then sync a pocket pc with the server to get the database on the pocket pc. I then want to take the pocket pc so I can add and edit some data on it then when I regain wireless connection, I want to sync it again so it will update it on the server
sync it again so it will update it on the server

yes

I am not sure if that is possinle

and feisty will store the encryption key but wants a password to access the stored key
and won't allow me to enter an empty password

how can i put in my xmms theme in xmms?

that's the issue. there must be a "conf" file that you can change to automatically enter the pass. Not sure where though.

nothing muted, all vols are up when I reboot I can here when the drivers try to load because I get a loud chrip then silence in the place on the login sound

ok, well I'm gonna re-install and see if I can fix my beryl woes that way

try turning off wpa or web and see what happens.

xmms calls them skins

no turning off encryption

WEP or WPA?

ok, how can i fix it to skin

WEP

just temp. for test.

can't do it

i did download a xmms skin

got other computers precariously working

is it wpa?

took me way too long to get something that would work on the mac books

I have my key right in my /etc/network/interfaces file. Works great!

Anyone know how to set a volume label in Ubuntu?

lsmod looks ok

I also use WEP.

on a FAT partition

wep's hardly worth it.

no
same problem

hey

is this the original Bacon?

hello, anyone who has installed Pidgin 2.0.2 ? A problem occur that one option for sound is lost.

Perhaps you don't have an ssh server installed. That's ok. You don't need the server for client access to other hosts.

Hi guys...how do i make it so that ubuntu will start up in 1400x900 when it starts???

Bacon|ubuntu

i set it to it...but it always changes..

the server's installed

i even turned on "make it default"

I am the original Bacon...

but it always changes
i think it's a conflict between the ubuntu resolution box and nvidia-settings

KNarf_, I installed it fine from the .deb file at getdeb.org

and nothing in auth.log about refusing

i installed the libk3b2 (or whatever) and i still cannot rip to mp3

Jordan_U, how to uninstall the version I had installed ?

Chris2, it's a nvidia thing, check in the forums

What do you get when you try to connect?

still no sound at all.

KNarf_, How did you install it?

did you ever get the issue resolved?

well, the key exchange goes well, but there is no error, no prompt, just pauses

sudo make install

sadly no, and setting my wireless router to send at 54mb made the entire network slow immensly
I dont know what to say
Is it better to have a higher signal/noise?

hell... if I know...

Have you touched any of the ssh config files?

like 65/43?

well, yeah

or is it better to have higher noise?

I then want to take the pocket pc so I can add and edit some data on it then when I regain wireless connection, I want to sync it again so it will update it on the server. How would I go about this?

just haven't had the time to mess with it

lower numbers on signal / high numbers on noise good
Ideal would be -infinity/ + infinity

power user?

thats right, cause it goes -70dBm

sudo make uninstall

How do I turn off the *keyring* for nm-applet?

I'd suggest reverting back to the original configuration files and then make sure you can establish a connection that way.

negative means lower...

Do I simply *delete* its key?

cause in dB, the lower the smaller

what's the best hosting way to do that? just apt-get remove sshd/ssh?

Jordan_U, THanks

chaismystic- I have used ubuntu for a while but I am by no means a power user

KNarf_, np

If anyone knows could they let me know how to turn off the keyring for nm-applet?

my suggestion would be Kubuntu running apache, mysql and php

Jared, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/NetworkManager#head-1de145d05f957ff659f5fdb58974ec3e5864def5, see Automatic Keyring

Once that works, then proceed to make your changes from a, "known good" configuration.

ummmmm...huh?
oh
hehe

Didn't you make a backup of your config rules before you started messing around with them?

chaosmystic- I am pretty sure I know how to set up the server, but I have no clue how to get it on the pocket pc

setup an old system with a big hard drive as your kubuntu server

How do I check a filesystem? fsck told me at startup I failed the test

does the pocket pc access html?

chaosmystic- yes

I just finally got nm setup on this laptop and I must say its nice... though upgrades over time I've been using manual config...

the you can setup and html sever
server

GhostFreeman_, If you failed the file system check, then you'

what are the settings atm in system-prefs-sound?

nm is just easy

you're going to have major issues when you upgrade modulkes and plugins

is there an app on the pocket pc you want sync the data with?

I'd definatly reinstall ubuntu, and find a different distro

KI4IKL, your passwd will have to be the same as your keyring password for it work I believe.

hello

Bacon, Why do you say that?

ok, but how can I get a more detailed filesystem check?

Is there a default root password?

Corrupt filesystem is never good?

KI4IKL, nm, I meant jared_

GhostFreeman_, I am not sure why Bacon is saying that...

well, if i did that, i wouldn't be here now, would i?

chaosmystic- not really I just need to find a way to get the database on there edit it or add to it then put it back on the server

Happened to me

jared_, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/NetworkManager#head-1de145d05f957ff659f5fdb58974ec3e5864def5, see Automatic Keyring

i'd like to just fully remove ssh from my system and start from scratch.

Well, it's a lesson that everyone learns at least once! :-)

are window managers used in lieu of desktops mainly to free system resources?

ok what apps are you using to create and edit data with?

yep.

fsck is there for a reason

confidential

I have a similar problem like GhostFreeman, but I happens after 30 times I mount a file system so i runs the check atomatically and somethimes it fails, so I reboot and everythings ok

I'd like to stay with Ubuntu, thanks for the advice

chaosmystic- I have not picked any apps yet but I do not really want to do excel

Bacon, Why do you say to find another distro, and why specifically would he have problems with modules, with a corrupt file system you are going to have problems in general, I don't see how they are modual / plugin specific

but I would like to know how to get a detailed report on my filesystem with fsck

openoffice?

Not a different fedora linux distro, a different ubuntu distro

because it may be related to my vfat drive

window managers don't do drag/drop or interaction between processes

Who can I disable the automatic files system check after 30 mounts

Bacon, What is your definition of a distribution?

No sweat. Yeah, you can reinstall the packages to get back to defaults. Perhaps just a dpkg reconfigure will do the trick. Not sure though.

6.06 is different from 7.04
Bad wording...

Bacon, Ahh, ok

oh...wait...weekend. bad time to check in to #ubuntu

GhostFreeman_, you can try the -V flag to fsck.

i'm going to remove completely and then start over. the main problem, though, is that i can't seem to be able to connect to the sshd server from a remote environment, when it worked fine before like 2 months ago

my point of view is why not figure out what apps your going to be using to create and edit data. then setup your server for those kinds of files. Either html, or ssh

"how do I format harddrive pls help :-((((((((("

thanks, dopry

don't disable it - but you can increase it using tune2fs

GhostFreeman_, from a terminal `info fsck` and you'll be able to find a lot of stuff you can use form the command line.

regeya, gparted, most likely from a LiveCD

chaosmystic- I haven't really picked an application yet

Alright I am having some hellacious issues with an ubuntu user who I took on as a project to get his laptop inspiron 1100 up and running with Ubuntu7.04 Feisty Fawn. His graphics card is an intel 82845G/GL[Brookdale-G]/. I have researched for HOURS with nothing to show for all my work. we have checked the gdm logs and the X logs and we keep coming up with an ending error that I CANNOT get past. O have read so many forum posts on
nearly the same problem that I am warn out. I HAVE rtfm and I have done research. I NEED help. the ending error sometimes (but not of recent) is:I830WaitLpRing()

thank you, this will help a lot

what exactly are you doing with this pocket pc? its is business or what?

ah ok thanks

chaosmystic- something like this http://airnab.com/

is this vid card relatively new?

Can I check my file system when it is mounted

give me a sec to read it

What custom configuration were you trying for? Passwordless auth or something similar?

its relatively old I think.

GhostFreeman_, Good luck... I've been working with linux for a long time, and never found a need for detail info on the filesystem, unless it was a post mortem... What do you want the info for?

hi, somebody knows howto install flash player in ubuntu feiry 64 bits?

Ok I read it but what in the heck is it for?

well, ssh'ing to sdf worked fine without pass because it used the key

GhostFreeman_, or better yet, just what information do you want, fsck might not be the tool for the job.

but

to find out if this is my vfat drive that's going south

sudo tune2fs -c0 /dev/device

TAB Air Balancing?

sdf?

thank you mdious

the bigger problem was not being able to connect to my own sshd. it would refuse the connection because of tcpwrappers (even though sshd is not run off of inetd)

chaosmystic- it is for business, you take the pocket PC out into the field and then you get readings off of air vents for RPM CFM and stuff, then you take it back and sync it

sdf = sdf.lonestar.org

if that doesn't work...try putting say 300 or some large number in place of the 0 after the c....

wait, no, it hung up on sda2 which is my ext3 part

chaosmystic- it is for HVAC stuff if you know what that is

you want to set this up in your house?
no what is HVAC?

yeah I'd like to see where it failed since my HDDs have been running for some time

GhostFreeman_, So you want to know about the underlying drive or the filesystem itself?

offtopic.

chaosmystic- the server would be at the office and then when the pocket pc goes to job sites to get the data and then syncs it
regeya- he is helping me

meh.

the filesystem since it reported the fail on startup

ok wait I read HVAC and thought 'Heating and A/C' sorry
:-}

i totally removed ssh and sshd and reinstalled. still can't ssh to sdf, even using putty doesn't work.

BrMiHi08, your soulution is fairly specific
BrMiHi08, nothing generic exists like that really

Just now?

yep

BrMiHi08, the problem is the client / server architecterue on a multi platform and multi device basis

holymoly- that airnab software is 13000 for the first year

;3~;3~;3~;3~

and there are no error messages with the verbose mode
the key exchange is successful, and then it just hangs

I assumed you just wanted a standard server host to sync music, movies and files to your pocket pc

your biggest problem is that you are actually using microsoft crap, thus you don't have a lot of open source options

any suggestions on a platform independent text editor that I could use to make c/c++, php, and python source files?

holymoly- so if I were to go windows (I know, I hate it) would it be a lot easier?

Can you ssh to localhost with the new install of the client/server packages?

jadae, vi

jadae, notepad++

pocket pc is just a bad platform first secondly its really only specific to devices that are SEVERELY underpowerd

I don't like using it in command line though

Alright I am having some hellacious issues with an ubuntu user who I took on as a project to get his laptop inspiron 1100 up and running with Ubuntu7.04 Feisty Fawn. His graphics card is an intel 82845G/GL[Brookdale-G]/. I have researched for HOURS with nothing to show for all my work. we have checked the gdm logs and the X logs and we keep coming up with an ending error that I CANNOT get past. O have read so many forum hosting posts on
nearly the same problem that I am warn out. I HAVE rtfm and I have done research. I NEED help. the ending error sometimes (but not of recent) is:I830WaitLpRing()

and I'd like it if it had tabbed documents

speaking of which I just finished up in my last position...now for the future: refusing to support windows...is that a crazy idea...anyway, if i end up cleaning toilets so be it...better than doing something i don't feel is right forever....

the first thing you will need to look at is at a umpc category device that can actually run desktop apps

jadae - notepad++ has everything you want

alright, thanks chaosmystic

once you are looking at a umpc you have desktop apps available ... at whichpoitn you will want a device that can run linux (i.e. intel chipset)

OmegaCenti, Can you pastebin the error?

once you have linux on your umpc and linux on your servers your half way there

holymoly- 3 tablet pc's are still cheaper than $13000

then a few option open up

one sec

is strictchecking something you want enabled always in the sshd_config?

BrMiHi08, but regardless you are still a) asking in the wrong channel and really b) approaching the problem solving for this the wrong way

Yes, I think so if it's enabled by default.

Does anyone know if I have to somehow initialize the modem of my machine in order to send a fax? (My Internet connection is a DSL).

BrMiHi08, what specifically datawise are you needing such replication capabilities?
btw. as a side note

http://nopaste.com/p/ahJqyKqNe

there is a very affordeable and VERY old technology that does exactly what you want but on a windows based client (linux client comming)
lotus notes
its actually designed for that

holymoly- I am not sure I understand your question

yep, still can't connect to localhost via ssh
have no idea why! there is no error reported

and it has the worlds best replication technology

nm. I have been at it all day and that user just gave up. I think I will too.

in lotus notes your client 'replicaates' the applicatio nto the client
so you can enter data all you want offline
then replicate the data back to the server

Did you modify the client config file, or just the server?

!modem

You want to connect via dial-up? Read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto

BrMiHi08, that is the first place you should be lookiing at actually

holymoly- that sound almost exactly what I am looking for

just use google apps

i haven't modified anything at this point.
all config files are out-of-the-box

all the other solutions are half assed, no really designed for that

I have emerald --replace in my startup session and it appears in my current session, but it is clearly not working for me. Anyone have any ideas? Is it being executed too soon in the start up process?

GhostFreeman_, then fsck is probably the tool... If you're concerned more about the disks themselves you can check out the smartmontools or smart-notifier packages.

Is there a way to list processes bind to an port? (like ftpserver, sshservers, webserver, etc.)

ibm now owns lotus notes, we use it, is fantastic

Ok. Does your hostname resolv?

adios

BrMiHi08, its also fantastically easy to create your own database applications although there is a bit of a learning curve or course
its as easy as learning a new word processor

localhost? how would i know?

2 for

holymoly- thanks for your help, I guess I will be doing some more research

i mean, that should work or else i'd have other network problems, right?

BrMiHi08, look seriously into lotus notes, there is nothing out there that even comes close to that

Firefox won't start. It says it's still running, but not responding. I tried killing the process from System Monitor, but it's not listed there. I tried restarting the computer and it still gives me the same error.

thanx (:

BrMiHi08, please be aware of one thing about lotus notes:

deep`: not sure if it's what you want, but hopefully it will help

can you ping the hostname?

windows users

lol

you should be able to ping localhost as well as the name assigned to your host.

wait, you mean my host or the remote host? i thought i was trying to ssh to myself at this point

BrMiHi08, in particular windows users that ONLY know ms outlook (notes also does email btw all in one)

The host you are on locally.

i can ping localhost

what happens is that outlook users don't understand that lotus notes is about easy document based database creation and management for a remote workforce

can you ping the name of the localhost?

holymoly- so I can really create a database in lotus notes that lets me do all of that?

yes.

and you will find nothing but endless whining about lotus notes from windows lusers

How do I alias an app? Like, ls automatically brings up ls -l?

hi, how can you install the flash player for firefox in feisty 64bits??

!flash | Nicark

i had to use outlook in my last position...worst - software - ever

To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash

BrMiHi08, my STRONG advice is to ignore windows users (as always) and dig in and find out for your self

it was just right (: so thanq ^^

thanks. I'll check those utils out.

mdious, almost as bad as evolution indeed
lol
*cough*

thanks Stormx2

you can probably just uncomment the aliases in your .bash_profile file in your home directory

BrMiHi08, 100% we use it

if you use bash, check out ~/.bashrc

er, yeah, .bashrc

BrMiHi08, notes comes in a client/ server architecture of course, server is EXTREMELY powerfull

do you know a GUI front end like SUPER for Linux ?
*ubuntu

Yes I'm not the biggest fan of evolution BUT evolution loads on my laptop in a few seconds...with outlook I would open it and then walk off for a while

its also one of the easiest servers to setup considering its power
mdious, lol, sounds familiar
BrMiHi08, the are comming out with a cross platform notes client tho

Firefox won't start. It says it's still running, but not responding. I tried killing the process from System Monitor, but it's not listed there. I tried restarting the computer and it still gives me the same error.

BrMiHi08, so you will be able to run it on linux natively at some poitn in time when you get a umpc

holymoly- sounds great, I think I have enough to research for a while

stay away from pocket pc stuff, thats garbage

with grep how do I make the results also show the file it found it in? I am doing "cat *.java | grep Image"

2 localhost sshd[403]: fatal: Timeout before authentication for

holymoly- palms much better?

BrMiHi08, for now you can run the windows client in crossover office, works great, its what we do
BrMiHi08, nope
BrMiHi08, those sorts of devices are just undepowered
BrMiHi08, you can't be looking for anything that has less than a 1ghz cpu under the hood
you want to be running basically a small laptop

whats crossover office?

pocketpc and palm devices are ultramobile, the problem there is you cant run desktop software and need to have custom stuff built

The reason I ask is that I've seen ssh have issues with hosts that have names that don't resolve.

r4ge, http://www.codeweavers.com/

BrMiHi08 that means that your choice of software for such devices is EXTREMELY low, and VERY SPECIFIC. palm is the best in that category yes, but not necessarily for what you are looking for

ok, no problem. that part works at least (yes!)

Sorry for the delay. I got disconnected from my server.

add umpc devices to yoru research list

hey
does anyone know why my keyboard response time in Ubuntu would be slow?

BrMiHi08, i thin that right there will blow 6 month off your life in terms of research, so have fun

r4ge, It is a proprietary version of wine that is made specifically for things like MS Office, but you can also run all the applications you can in crossover office with the open source wine AFIK

you have a lot to learn

and I don't have SlowKeys on in Accessibility

Check one more thing. Make sure the name assigned to your host is in your /etc/hosts file.

holymoly- thanks for shortening my life 6 months

mdious, roho, do I need to logout/login for it to take effect?

i was gonna say, it looks like fancy-pants WINE

no, do a source .bashrc and it should work

question

y?

yeah, it's there: first line: 127.0.0.1 localhost hostname | second line: 127.0.0.1 hostname
so that is correct

i got a bit of a shock the other day when my brother jumped on my computer and ran a windows application. I had previously setup WINE and assoicated it with .exe files nautalus.

i can connect my external usb hdd

he said he justed "double clicked the icon" and it ran without a hitch.

um...not sure sorry

bonzibuddysetup.exe ?

but it's error everytime i eject
how to eject it safely?
i'm using feisty fawn

strabes, god I hope not...

strabes, some demo loading program that came with a magazine.

so Wine just released it's distro for better support what do you have to do to get in included in apt-get's packager

sudo eject /dev/disklocation

!enter | palmer

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

I think you might have to...or restart something hehe, sorry can't help more

Ok. Well if you are sure the server is using a default config file, it should be working. But it almost seems like there's something nonstandard in the mix.

lol, bonzibuddy was the best app ever

bonzi buddy gave u viruses

i remember how you could type in stuff and it would say it

DrkCodeman, I believe that wine has a repository for ubuntu

indeed

i'm sorry !

yeah, it doesn't make any sense. i work on it for a few hours, get angry and try again some other time.

Jordan_U, needs to be updated...

palmer just makes it impossible to see yr problem in one go

Is there a simple linux 3d animation program, Blender's learning is a little too step

Fezzler, Wings3d ?

well yea blender is complex
but you start small hit upthe instructions

I'll do some more thinking and if I come up with anything else, I'll let you know. Good luck though.

hmm wth C compiler cannot make executables?

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

anyone know of an app to rip the audio track out of a video?

alright, well thanks for listening

DrkCodeman, Is this the repository you are using? http://www.winehq.org/site/download-deb

What files does the director /etc/acpi/resume.d summarize?

anyone know how to setup widescreen resolutions?

What files does the directory /etc/acpi/resume.d summarize?

RabidWeezle, What kind of gfx card do you have?

Jordan_U, wine-0.9.39.tar.bz2
http://www.winehq.org/
Jordan_U, under "but the source is available now"

Jordan_U, I have an nvidia with the restricted drivers installed, geforce fx 5700 ultra
I got a 19 inch widescreen monitor
it takes a resolution of like something by 1440

1440x900 ?

As a side thought, what if the reinstall is trying to use the old/modified configuration file? Did you specifically remove it before reinstalling the server? If not, perhaps dpkg found the existing config and opted to have the new install utilize the old config file. Check and see if there is more than one sshd_config file in the /etc/ssh dir.

yeah, something like that
Nicark, you know how to set that resolution?

Jordan_U, did you see the wine distro?

"sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh" it will ask for the driver to use and the resolution to use, choose "nvidia" ( not "nv" ) and 1440x900

RabidWeezle, you have to configure your monitor in /etc/X11/xorg.conf

I have solved my synaptic problem

thanks Jordan_U

DrkCodeman, What do you mean by "the wine distro" ?

no, that wouldn't happen because i used synaptic to completely remove them (incl. config files)
i wonder if it's a PAM thing?

Jordan_U, as i said when i try to run ./configure on wine i get configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables

I had to add the stuff to my xorg
I have found a tutorial if anyone wants to read it

Ok then.

ill google search it prolly have better luck

DrkCodeman, You probably just want to wait a day or two for a .deb but if you really want to compile from source...

apparently there is a huge known issue with x64 builds of ubuntu
the compiler is crap

What program can I use to play store bought dvd movies

DrkCodeman, sudo apt-get install build-essential

Try the command 'X Resolution Probe': xresprob.

totem wont do it

DrkCodeman, No, it's just not installed yet

naknak987, You need some codecs.

Thanks, I will try those

naknak987, check what ubotu said about multimedia issues

what's the other resolutions with the same aspect ratio of 1440x900?

and then you should be able to use totem to play stuff.

sudo apt-get install libc6-dev g++ gcc

ham?

cya's

DrkCodeman, Because meta packages and build-dep are easier and take less research on my part

hello. ive trid to update my ubuntu distro and just broke it. now when i login the screen freezes and i cant even move the cursor. how can i reinstall ubuntu without losing my files?

lol Jordan_U

bamzin, Do you have your /home on a separate partition?

no.. its on the same partition

Jordan_U, that apt get is huge
whats the other?

is there a way to turn off the screen at will ( not after some time )

What files does the directory /etc/acpi/resume.d summarize?

how do you know if home is in a different partition???

DrkCodeman, Probably not much, you probably have all the dependencies you need for the binary already

type mount
in an xterm

So when you try to connect, the connection is established but you get no password prompt, or is the connection not even established?

Jordan_U, do you know of a mounting application for like blindwrite / clonecd / nero etc without a command? like a ported daemon tools?

df also pulls up some usefull infomation

o yea, /dev/hdc7 on /home type ext3 (rw)- it is in a separate partition

keys are exchanged, but no login prompt. sshd times out

bamzin, You could back up your /home and re-install, or possibly even delete everything on your / except /home, then mv all of the files in /home to / , re-size that partition and use it as a new /home partition

Jordan_U, so you think the latest version of wine will be implemented by tommorow for apt-get?
doh

DrkCodeman, Probably, but remember you have to enable the specific wine repository to get it

it is

I wonder if your ~/.ssh has a corrupt config file in it, or perhaps you have a corrupt key in there. Have you tried temporarily getting rid of your ~/.ssh directory?

bamzin, How did you upgrade? There may be a way to fix your current install. ( also see my earlier comment if you missed it )

yes, i have. still no beans.

is it bad to ping random ip's. like is that cyberagression.

my buttons on the laptop (dell e1505) don't work. the volume up and down and mute work, but the multimedia keys for play/pause , stop, next tract don't work. what might be a solutiont o this?

hello folks. I downloaded the ubuntu 7.04 i386 cd installer and when I run that option to verify cd data it shows an error. validating teh md5sum.txt i got 9 invalid md5 hashes, but its ok to Ubuntu, because the installation starts with the root md5 hash of Ubuntu

its a dell that had xp on it when it shipped.

anyonw knows what's happening?

need help fixing audio input on feisty... mic does not work

im confused

ah, well in that case dell would be even less helpful than if it was one of their oem linux machines

i installed ubuntu with dualbootness
and when i rebooted there was no ubuntu.

rifleeyes did you install grub?

no one told me i had to

does it boot at all?

it would be part of the installation process

TheCougar, There is *definately* a way to make it work, as long as there are media players which listen to those types of keys ( I think most do but I don't have media keys on my laptop )

i am on 6.06
because i cannot burn 7.04
as a note.

The_8472, "PAM module like pam_mount is to unmount a user's home directory upon logging out because programs like xscreensaver will block an unmount with open file descriptors."
err

rifleeyes the windows bootloader does not recognize linuxes. but you can get it (NTLDR) to do so with a program called bootpart if i recall rightly. but anyway if you get grub on there it should give you the choice at startup.

sweet
i can get grub from windows then?

ah so i might want to talk to the makers of the media program i'm using and see what they can come up with
bah so i might want to talk to the makers of the media program i'm using and see what they can come up with/b

anyone know why pam mount cant unmount a loop FS when logging in via SSH, but can using console?

i mean, download it in windows

grub is on your ubuntu cd

need help fixing audio input on feisty... mic does not work

okay.. where..?

http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=224351

TheCougar, No, you probably just need to tell X what those key codes are supposed to mean, I wouldn't ask the application developers unless it works in one app but not another

maybe ssh user doesn't have permissions for mount

oh

rifleeyes grub doesn't have a gui interface - it's command line only. unless you download a gui utility

vlt, sure it does... open console, type alsamixer, hit tab one time (should see capture selected near the top) now use the cursor keys to move to your mic input and press the arrow up key and/or the "m" key

err.. okay. im not good with command line stuff. especially linux.

how do I check unpartitioned space?

Why do my NTFS partitions stop mounting after every kernel upgrade
?

can i just upgrade from 6.06 lts to 7.04 or should i clean install?

vlt, is it bluetooth?

okay, when i do find /boot/grub/stage1, it says file not found

no

nivekc1, You have to upgrade to Edgy first, then Feisty

vlt, er... using kubuntu or ubuntu ?

ubuntu

k

my md5 hash of ubuntu install CD is OK, but some files, acordding to md5sum are mismatching. is it right?

so i should just clean install

s/acordding/according

nivekc1, if you have backedup your data... faster
it will be

so if i right click and burn it will create the disc correctly for setup? i only have one cdr left lol

nivekc1, That would be faster / less likely to cause problems, especially nice if you have a separate /home

ya it should ... xx fingers

ubuntu is funny.

RifleEyes, ya it works...
vlt, i'm looking...

not for me, haha

ubuntu is amazing! lol i have been using it for 2 days now and i shalnt go back to vista

nivekc1, cool

wish i had your luck, nivekc1 =(

Bah. What the heck is going on? First it mounts partitions to directories labeled with drive letters from Windows. Another kernel upgrade and then it mounts them to drive labels. Now, it can't find my partitions. :|

why rifle what up?

This is breaking my links and file databases.

everytime i try to install ubuntu, something goes wonky

did you choose not to install grub when you installed?

how can i check whether my current version is 64 bit or not???

i didnt see an option

then you missed it

apparently

Failed to access '/dev/hda6': No such file or directory Interesting.

tritium, I don't think there is any such option....

Great. /dev/sda6 10201 15300 40965718+ 7 HPFS/NTFS :|

if it is there, it is eh.. kinda hidden or something

vlt, did you look here?... https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/701

i will

well, you might be right about the LiveCD. I may be recalling a recent install from the alternate CD.

tritium, On the LiveCD at least there is only an option on *where* to install grub to, and that is hidden under a button labeled "advanced"

hahaha

anyone know?

yeah

err, nivekc1 "uname -a" should tell enough

nivekc1, uname -r

??

is fedora easy to use like ubuntu?....anyone?

nivekc1, in a terminal window...
will let you know the kernel version

nivekc1, Open an terminal and run "uname -a", it will give some information about your OS

ToddEDM, i found Ubuntu much easier to use

very nice!! thank you mucho!!

rpm systems just aren't as friendly as deb systems IMHO, but I guess some folks like them

i guess i am going to reinstall
so where is this grub option?

it's harder at the point that it has much less of things from the box

there isnt a grub option!?

ok i will stick with ubuntu

too many copyright restrictions

ToddEDM, But realize that people here are going to be just a little biased

grub is probably already installed

ever?

once your computer boots, what happens, RifleEyes?

yes i realize that Jorddan

it tells me to choose either of my two XP installs

ubuntu is a bit easier

yes, i have two.

hm.

RifleEyes, Do you have multiple hard drives?

one more question before i wipe her out

yes

hi!

does 7.04 come with firefox 2.0?

owdy petato

yes

sweet

2.0.0.4

nivekc1, aptitude update and aptitude upgrade

RifleEyes, Chances are that GRUB got installed to the hard drive you are not set to boot from

what's with firefox crapping out on pages with java?

hah

thanks everyone for the help and i will be back upgraded and more functional than ever!!

roho, i had that too.... made new ff profile and it works now

roho, Do you have the Java plugin installed?

oh btw rifle eyes did u run the disc integrity checker to make sure your disc was good?! cya guys

some extension seemed to be the cause

hew guys, how do i make an iso from a cd?

you know chat ubuntu spanish ?

ehh
no

good luck nivekc1

didnt think of it, since it was the mail-in kind

thanks bye

i think so
java works some times, not at other times

is depend for the machine
sorry for mi english :P

crabgrass, its just an image file... i would use k3b, but the command "dd if=/dev/cdrom of=/tmp/isoimage.iso" works well

i need .. practicar

petato, no problemo

reinstall i go. wish me luck

how can i test to see if my drivers are installed?

mi espanol es muy bad

video drivers

=D

RifleEyes, Try booting from your other HD, you can also choose which HD ( or partition ) to install GRUB to from the installer when it tells you what partitions are going to be formatted, there is a button on the right ( I think ) labeled "advanced" that will let you choose

ToddEDM, which ones ? ... nvidia?

yes

one question, y like kde, but ubuntu cam whit more aplications

play a game. :0

I just made a change to xorg.conf how would i reload that?

i like

do i have to restart the system?

petato, anything ubuntu has you can install on kubuntu.
petato, and visa-versa. I have both uubntu+kubuntu+xubuntu on this box.

"dd: reading `/media/cdrom0/': Is a directory"

wait thats 3

TheCougar, no. just restart X. ctrl-alt-backspace. I hope you made a backup xorg.conf.

crabgrass, do you have the cd in that drive?

yeah

ok
so use /dev/cdrom0
instead of media

Tanks Dr_willis
