| jair | Lunar_Lamp: all right good |
| shawn34 | its seriously pissing me off |
| rai7 | I have a quick stupid question- will Ktorrent work if im using gnome? err.. will anything 'K' work? |
| jair | I am using the latest kernel though of ubuntu |
| Derek_Russo | Hey, I'm having a strange problem with gxine where the monitor keeps shutting off while I'm watching a dvd. I checked all my power settings and it seems like I have monitor turnoff disabeled |
| IndyGunFreak | shawn34, on a windows PC, yes... he's clearly clueless about Linux, so i wouldn't worry about it. |
| jeeves_Moss | lunar_lamp: ideas? |
| Lunar_Lamp | Jeeves_Moss, I'm afraid I've never mounted a samba share fro mthe command line; only through gnome. |
| bruenig | shawn34, explain permissions, that should be enough, if he doesn't get that, it really isn't worth it |
| jair | I am running the kernel 2.6.15-28-686 |
| IndyGunFreak | rai7, yes, synaptic will handle any dependency problems |
| jeeves_Moss | lunar_lamp: thanks anyways. |

| VSpike | rai7: you can run kde apps in gnome, you'll just end up installing a load of kde dependencies the first time |
| catid | has anyone tried using Anticipatory instead of CFQ I/O scheduling on their desktop lately? |
| kaje1 | Does anyone know how I can kill X and make it stay dead? I have a server that I don't need X running on 90% of the time... |
| bruenig | kaje1, sudo chmod -x /etc/init.d/gdm should do it |
| kaje1 | bruenig, and then reboot? |
| bruenig | kaje1, sure |
| ubuntu_user07 | how can i install kde to try out on here? and will i be able to remove it if i so choose |
| bruenig | ubuntu_user07, sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop |
| pyrak | can someone point me to where i might tweak the settings for my touchpad? |
| bruenig | ubuntu_user07, you will be able to remove it, yes |
| ubuntu_user07 | thanks i will try it now |
|
|
| jrib | ubuntu_user07: use aptitude so it will be easier to remove |
| bruenig | aptitude is no easier that apt-get |
| ubuntu_user07 | so i would do sudo aptitude kubuntu-desktop |
| HorizonXP | what's the difference between apt-get and aptitude? |
| server_ | i have one question....i have LAMP installed and working but when i go to add html files to my 'www' directory in filesystem it says i dont have permission |
| jrib | bruenig: apt-get's autoremove is unreliable and buggy |
| bruenig | HorizonXP, effectively none since autoremove |
| VSpike | Jeeves_Moss: from memory it's "smbmount //server/share /mount/point -o username=user" |
| Lunar_Lamp | ubuntu_user07, use "aptitude" not "apt-get" as it will make removing the files easier. |
| ubuntu_user07 | so sudo aptitude kubuntu-desktop? |
| Lunar_Lamp | ubuntu_user07, "sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop" |
| pyrak | how do i adjust sensitivity of touchpad? |
| xtknight | Lunar_Lamp, removing the files easier? how ? |
