| Pelo | neozen, just make a clean install then |
| GolferX | neozen, my computer problem is the blanking screen, dpms, and the whole shooting match that is found in gxset. my Windows problem is deeper than I care to probe; I thought I had it neatly packaged away. |
| Foon | oh, and yeah, for #fluxbox, lol |
| aeropixie | Does aptitude have access to all the same scrips at apt-get ? |
| gravemind | Flannel: ok. what happens if I sudo it though (curious) |
| Flannel | genii: eh? Why? did he run gaim with sudo? |
| Alpha_Cluster | bruenig: seems to work now though i find it upsetting that the fourms had no explaination of how to solve this even though i know ive gotten it before numerous times |
| Pelo | SirBob1701, try asking in #mplayer |
| neozen | GolferX: this is under edgy right? |
| brophat | neozen actually I am speeking for my brother, so god only knows what is going on with him up in that other state. I just got him step off the windows grid and try ubuntu |
| bruenig | aeropixie, what do you mean scripts, like preinst? |
| SirBob1701 | k this is on free node right? |
| Flannel | gravemind: You shouldn't have to, because you should own those files. If you need to use sudo, there's something else going wrong. |
| bruenig | Alpha_Cluster, it worked after doing that command or some other way? |
| genii | Flannel I dunno but it's owned by rot, according to his last pastebin |
| aeropixie | bruenig: i meant packages. |
| Pelo | SirBob1701, yes |
| GolferX | neozen, yeah |
| neozen | GolferX: to solve the blanking screen issue I installed dapper instead of edgy |
| bruenig | aeropixie, yes it does |
| Flannel | gravemind: did you run GAIM with sudo ever? |
| genii | *root* rather bleh |
| GolferX | eek |
| neozen | GolferX: this issue is not present AT ALL in dapper |
| wilo | wats the comman to get frostfire back |
| brophat | neozen if he has an X through his speaker icon on his desktop does that mean he definately currently does not have sound? |
| aeropixie | bruenig: thanks |
| gravemind | Flannel: usually I just start it with the GUI, it never asks for an admin pass |
| Alpha_Cluster | bruenig: after that command |
| wilo | 'sudo apt-get frostfire'? |
| GolferX | I should have stayed there with that one |
| aeropixie | bruenig: so is there ever a reason to use apt-get instead? |
| bruenig | wilo, apt-get isn't in the repositories |
| Flannel | gravemind: right, usually. But have you ever done it otherwise? |
| GolferX | then |
| neozen | brophat: no... my guess would be that he's got it muted brophat: that's my first guess |
| wilo | bruenig: not in the repositories? |
