00:00 <****> riotkittie: compiz is flashier than metacity is flashier than fluxbox is flashier than vt200 :)

00:00 <****> i just created a new partition for misc data at /dev/sda3 and i am trying to mount it to /data, how can i create that mount point?
00:01 <****> fpauls: what's your question?
00:01 <****> Where can I find "compizconfig-settings-manager"
00:01 <****> juanbond: mkdir /data
00:01 <****> faiaookami: you need to install it
00:01 <****> I don't see it anywhere in Synaptec
00:01 <****> faiaookami: go into synaptic and install it
00:01 <****> hmm
00:01 <****> oh
00:01 <****> Anyone had the problem with intel drivers where you get a HUGE font on your logon screen, and all your name bars of thre windows are huge ?
00:01 <****> juanbond: sudo mkdir /data && sudo mount /dev/sda3 /data
00:01 <****> im new to linux and im trying to install guest additions
00:01 <****> Hello everybody, I had a couple of questions to ask... One; my NTFS drives will not mount in ubuntu gutsy, it says there was an improper shutdown, and that they need to be removed, but I have done that. Also, how do I disable my on-board graphics card and enable a Radeon X 1600 PCI E, (the original card is Nvidia) Anyone that could help me out I would appreciate it
00:01 <****> try sudo apt-get install compizconfig* and see if you get lucky :)
00:02 <****> compiz-config
00:02 <****> okay
00:02 <****> awesome! thanks for the tips :)
00:02 <****> !ccsm
00:02 <****> To enable advanced customization of desktop effects in Gutsy(7.10) install 'compizconfig-settings-manager' - A new option will appear in your appearance properties - see also !compiz
00:02 <****> my system is not removing lock files, which prevent me from using other file managers
00:02 <****> Powerix: E: Package w32codecs has no installation candidate any ideas?
00:02 <****> Does anyone know why Intel 965 chipset is blacklisted of compiz? any information are appricieted
00:02 <****> I have LIRC installed for my remote control. What package can I use to set up my IMON remote to control applications?
00:03 <****> Innomen, did u add the medibuntu repositories?
00:03 <****> for example, control the volume
00:03 <****> Anyone know how to fix the missing title bar in Wine applications when using compiz fusion?
00:03 <****> MasterShrek: i believe so
00:03 <****> fastit lacks support for texture_8
00:03 <****> -8 +*
00:03 <****> Innomen, did u apt-get update?
00:03 <****> Its rather interesting how the so called upgrade has removed all the programs or broken them such that a recovery or even a backup of data is not possible
00:03 <****> MasterShrek: probably not
00:04 <****> rokia: i'm clueless. for what its worth, the one time i tried xubuntu, i too found it to be unbearably slow in comparison to the xfce desktop on zenwalk :|
00:04 <****> anyone know what happened to the built-in emerald themes ?
00:04 <****> if you run emerald-theme-manager you used to get like 20 themes or so
00:04 <****> Does anyone know why Intel 965 chipset is blacklisted of compiz? any information are appricieted
00:04 <****> kkathman, no idea, i didnt have any either, had to install them manually
00:04 <****> Hello everybody, I had a couple of questions to ask... One; my NTFS drives will not mount in ubuntu gutsy, it says there was an improper shutdown, and that they need to be removed, but I have done that. Also, how do I disable my on-board graphics card and enable a Radeon X 1600 PCI E, (the original card is Nvidia) Anyone that could help me out I would appreciate it
00:04 <****> and in what way to i have /dev/sda3 mount to /data everytime ubuntu starts?
00:04 <****> threeseas, 2 things cause that. 1 you didnt use the version of update-manager from feisty-updates or 2. you didnt use update-manager
00:04 <****> kkathman: they are contained in another package now
00:04 <****> MasterShrek: how would i do both of those things?
00:04 <****> init.d?
00:04 <****> i'm installing ubuntu (alternate install) for the 1st time, i have a new machine with 2 500gig sata's. I want to set it up with both these in RAID1. Can I set this up in the isntall? right now i'm at the point at paritioning method - guided, lvm etc.
00:04 <****> Ubuntu really doesn't need to compete with MS upgrade
00:04 <****> Fryguy--, ahhh
00:05 <****> how do i use the new integrated desktop search?
00:05 <****> Innomen, sudo apt-get update then sudo apt-get upgrade
00:05 <****> threeseas, always the chance you had unsupported packages
00:05 <****> threeseas: that usually results from having installed something wonky on the upgrader's part [unsupported software, automatix, so on so forth]
00:05 <****> Fryguy--, do you happen to know the name?
00:05 <****> can anyone help me install guest additions in vbox?
00:05 <****> arooni:
00:05 <****> alt f3
00:05 <****> Innomen, actually not the second one, use this instead: sudo apt-get install w32codecs
00:05 <****> hi all
00:05 <****> kkathman: unfortunately not, I was looking it up for you but I can't find it right now, try google
00:05 <****> ok thx
00:05 <****> kkathman: I use gtk-window-decorator so :/
00:05 <****> if i would change the home icon on the desktop, which name i should look for?
00:06 <****> (riotkittie): thanks, it seems to have fixed the screen resolution problem. just one sidenote and its not a big deal. when i type in the user/pass at the login screen, the characters are about half the size of the screen. just a wierd side effect i guess
00:06 <****> MasterShrek: Package w32codecs is not available, but is referred to by another package. This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source E: Package w32codecs has no installation candidate
00:06 <****> TNDT: i'm having that issue on one of my gutsy installs. i cant figure out why :|
00:06 <****> Guess this failed upgrade means I go out and buy a nother hard drive so to be able to save my data
00:06 <****> heh
00:06 <****> Innomen, pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list
00:06 <****> can a different wallpaper be set on each desktop in gnome yet?
00:07 <****> Which HD company does Ubuntu have stock in?
00:07 <****> seagate I think
00:07 <****> I finally got sound on my Acer Aspire 3050, however whenever I load a Flash movie the sound suddenly stops
00:07 <****> threeseas: why not just restore the backup you made before you made major changes to your operating system?
00:07 <****> threeseas: you mean you didn't backup before upgrading?
00:07 <****> threeseas: what is going on with your machine perhaps we can get it fixed
00:07 <****> TNDT, that due to the res you have set in /etc/gdm.conf most likely
00:07 <****> I get the error "Error Reading Boot CD" when trying to install Ubuntu. Has anyone had this error before? I can't even check the CD for defect's
00:07 <****> I'm on Gutsy
00:07 <****> i'm installing ubuntu (alternate install) for the 1st time, i have a new machine with 2 500gig sata's. I want to set it up with both these in RAID1. Can I set this up in the isntall? right now i'm at the point at paritioning method - guided, lvm etc.
00:08 <****> 500?!!?! *envy*
00:08 <****> foug, sounds like a bad ISO or bad durn
00:08 <****> well i figured out the issue my friend was having
00:08 <****> !raid | chris0101
00:08 <****> chris0101: Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RaidConfigurationHowto and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO
00:08 <****> MasterShrek: what are you looking for inside it?
00:08 <****> network manager failed to detect the WPA encryption type, but when he set it manually, it worked
00:08 <****> ThunderStruck: ughh, i hate my life. So I need to redownload ubuntu then?
00:08 <****> ChrisC35: AFAIK ubuntyu doesn't support installing to raid1, it might on the alternate disk though. IMO raid1 is a waste so I haven't looked into it much
00:08 <****> thanks all
00:08 <****> I finally got sound on my Acer Aspire 3050, however whenever I load a Flash movie the sound suddenly stops
00:08 <****> Innomen, the medibuntu repositories
00:08 <****> Hirvinen, I have a server setup with vncserver running 7.04, I cant get anything to show up on remote vnc aside from a brown screen, sometimes the gnome loading splash screen with Nautilus loading, anyone have a fix?
00:08 <****> I need to restart X to get it back again
00:08 <****> Anyone else having trouble with pidgin and spellchecxk?
