apparently this isn't it: python-wxgtk2.8 is already the newest version.

or if dont work, extract the deb, and copy the module to the right directory, later do the command "sudo depmod -ae `uname -r`"

OvernightPR, thanks for all your help, although this problem is not yet solved, i'll keep looking

pppiano: sorry that didn't help.

how do i change what controller the audio driver is using?

Help: How do I change my password

i want to make sure all of the audio driver are using the right contriler

roxanna, open a terminal and type "passwd"

roxanna: you trying to change your pw, or the root pw?

!noroot

We don't support a root password so don't suggest one unless you are going to be here 24/7 to help someone who has problems as a result of having one, many thanks ;-)

yes, but you can always set the root password if your feeling frisky

not advisable though

Jack Sparrow: ah, thanks.

np

please explain to me why it isn't safe to run as root all the time

hi. When i plug my sweex usb laser mouse to my laptop the mouse pointer on the screen doesnt move however i move the mouse. The other buttons work ok though. with lsusb shows that it is found by the operationg system. I am using 9.04

!root | FunkyObtuse

FunkyObtuse: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo

FunkyObtuse There are lots of places to read up on that. try #ubuntu-ot

Hello, i am trying to install stardict dictionary but it is showing error "Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: libgucharmap6 "

anyone?

"Ex-Chat"

did u try "sudo apt-get install libgucharmap6"?

FunkyObuse: The technical answer is because it allows all programs to run as root, which lets them change master settings that they shouldn't. The non-technical reason is because it will sommon bats from the netherealms to eat your face. )

you can go sudo passwd root passwordhere to do it, if you want....THE POWER

ed2ef, how can i mount my drives automatically when i boot

put on the /etc/fstab

!8.04

Ubuntu 8.04-LTS (Hardy Heron) was the eighth release of Ubuntu. Downloading: http://releases.ubuntu.com/8.04 - See !lts for more details.

ed2ef, i tried sudo apt-get install libgucharmap6 , but it is showing " package not found "

nicks007 What package are you trying to install originally

i want to install stardict dictionary, i downloaded a .deb package file . when i tried to install it , its giving dependency error

nicks007: then you need to fill the depencies

nicks007, http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?suite=all&keywords=libgucharmap6, r u sure u r getting the deb package for your ubuntu version?

nicks007 That is not surprising. Chasing dep for something outside of repos can be traumatic

!lol | ed2ef

ed2ef: Please don't use "LOL" and "OMG" and so forth on a regular basis. This is IRC, not IM, and using those lines on their own is not required, and it is rather annoying to the rest of the people in the channel; thanks.

yes, i am sure that i have downloaded .deb file for ubuntu

gartral, sorry man, i ll try to stop with the abreviation

nicks007 do you have a link

My xbox 360 DNS server can't resolve names of xbox live servers, how can I solve this?

taylor: Is that in any way related to Ubuntu?

nicks007, there is 2 way to confront this, or you force the installation of the package, or if you are totatly sure of what your are doing, get the libguchar-something package from hardy and install it

jack_Sparrow , i have downloaded from here http://stardict.sourceforge.net/download.php

checking

taylor: im assuming your trying to rout the 360 through your desktop to the internet, and the desktop IS running Ubuntu?

OvernightPR: yes because it worked on Winxp but now that I have ubuntu installed and running firestarter with ICS enabled but it wont work

gartral: yes

nicks007, http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?suite=all§ion=all&arch=any&searchon=names&keywords=stardict

gartral: See, you are clearly thinking one step ahead of me on that. :D

there is already a ubuntu official package

!info stardict

stardict (source: stardict): International dictionary. In component universe, is optional. Version 3.0.1-4ubuntu1 (jaunty), package size 13 kB, installed size 60 kB

OvernightPR: are there any external firewalls that have "windowsbased controll modes"?

odd thing: dopewars, which worked in 8.04, does not work in 9.04. where can I report this to ubuntu?

ok thanks, it is fixed now

np

np

sigger: no need to report, just reinstall it, i had too, but i assure you, Dopewars does work

OvernightPR: hmm.. i can't find much on this issue...

gartral: ah uninst + reinst? ok. and nice to see I'm not the only one with that guilty pleasure

sigger: heh.. after your done, i can start a game server, if you'ed like

"Leaving"

Just thought about something, will return if this does not work

gartral: Didn't they do something with windows server 08 like that? Am I crazy?

OvernightPR: just randomly curious, are you trying to use a normal cat5e cable, or a crossover cable?

!purge | sigger

Sorry, I don't know anything about purge

but car is dad ...psss

Jack_Sparrow: Looks like you know how to recognize, "Hello, does anyone speak my language" in just about every language. :D

sigger: purge deletes the binaray, config files, and any folders corisponding to the program in your home dir

yep

hi, flashs fullscreen mode is allways on the wrong screen and somhow offset (as if my left monior was higher and longer to the left than it is). Any idea? it's a new problem, worked before

gartral: k. how do I backup scores? no biggie if I cant

I have to correct: It's on the wrong screen when I use my right one

sigger: lemme see

it even crops the view somehow

cowgarden: nvidia?

fccf, yes

how far off is 9.10?

is jaunty worth installing now?

october

hoohaah that would be the date

have you used nvidia-settings?

oh

heh

I tried to boot my mother's computer (apple ibook g4) from the ubuntu 9.04 desktop edition CD

it wouldn't boot

fccf, yes, but not when the problem appeared

sigger: cp ./.dopewars ./Desktop/dopewars

that's why

it's x86 and she's god a frigging g4

"http://quassel-irc.org - Chat comfortably. Anywhere."

g__ damn it!

!ohmy > balzac

balzac, please see my private message

"Leaving"

cowgarden: by using sudo nvidia-settings and set it up again the way you need, make sure to keep a backup

sorry for the outburst

taylor: just randomly curious, are you trying to use a normal cat5e cable, or a crossover cable?

hoohaah get the cd and dl the mirror if you want

!mirror

Ubuntu installation CDs can be downloaded from http://releases.ubuntu.com - Mirrors can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Mirrors - PLEASE use the !torrents to download Jaunty, and help keeping the servers' load low!

Jack_Sparrow: do you happen to know if that includes something like ralink-firmware or firmware for wireless cards?

fccf, xconfig.org is the only thing I need to backup, right?

hello. I have a raid array that i start with 'mdadm --build --level=0 --raid-devices=3 /dev/md0 /dev/sd[cde]'. how do i auto start on boot?

gartral: a cat5e cable, like I said it worked before in the exact same physical setup

hoohaah You would need to look at what is in main. I really dont know

are you using Xfree86 or xorg?

kk

fccf, xorg I think (the standard thing)

hi my name is milo and im a newbie to ubuntu but i really enjoy it

fccf, xorg if thats the process name too

gartral: actually no non-comment text in my .dopewars. though I do have high scores. 13MM once FYI

milo_ welcome

taylor: right, IIRC Ubuntu doesn't like device>device cat5e connections, you may need a repeater, or hub in between, and you may need to config your firewall acordingly for the hub

It saves to /etc/X11/xorg.conf

milo_ http://www.ubuntupocketguide.com/download_main.html

milo_, welcome aboard!

thanks jack

hiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

np

hi

gartral: would using a crossover cable be easier?

fccf, yea right, thx, I'll try that tomorrow. have a nice time!
