| vustar | eck, what is libata ? |
| TokenBad | variant, I have ext3 partition picked... |
| Whisperkiller | im selecting packages now but i wish there was a profile i could select under package installer |
| Alonea | Oh! Is the shutdown problems fixed in fiesty? The ones in relation to fglrx and ati video cards? |
| vustar | eck, ;) |
| indecision | variant: I'll give it a shot, I suppose. I did try with a custom modeline, but it forced my monitor into 95hz, which it wasn't happy about. Next time I feel like messing with it, I'll see if setting the default resolution works. |
| ajehuk | g35 - actually thats really wierd - the colour depth doesnt change regardless of what I set... |
| _doppelganger_ | varient: would you rather me launch gparted and give you screenshots, or do the typical ubuntu install and show you the exact message? maybe gparted would shed some light on the situation |
| NemesisD | jrib, i know, that bums me out because i want to continue using beryl |
| eck | vustar: if you are interested https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks |
| Haekke | Is there a "lite" version of ubuntu without all that preinstalled stuff in |
| barbarella_me | mtm8:yes you can automate commands, it depends from wich user you chroot |
| latoo | Haekke: there's a mini.iso (10MB) which installs over network |
| Jordan_U | Haekke, Yes, You want the ubuntu-minimal install CD |
| vustar | eck, :) |
| Jordan_U | !install | Haekke |
| ubotu | Haekke: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues - See also !automate |
| TokenBad | variant, I can take a screenshot and put it somewhere if I need to so you can see |
| Pelo | Haekke, there is xubuntu make to work on older comps, but I donT think that 's what you mean, I know there is a meta package called ubuntu-minium or something similar but I donT' know how you install it on its own |
| NemesisD | jesus why is totem even included with ubuntu, it can't play anything |
| indecision | ok, here's an easy Xchat question...can I get the join/part messages out of the channel window? |
| variant | _doppelganger_: run the installer (ubiquity) from a terminal with sudo and hopefully that will give some more output |
| Pelo | NemesisD, you need the codecs !codecs > NemesisD check your pm window |
| NemesisD | Pelo, yeah i know, but its kinda silly that it can't play anything out of the box pretty much |
| variant | TokenBad: i beleive you, strange that the installer doesn't htough :) |
| drew | anyone familiar with fijrefox settings in ubuntu? |
| concept10 | NemesisD, I ask the same question everyday |
| TokenBad | variant, but maybe I am doing something wrong |
| hyperspace | can i kill a remote dist-upgrade (from gui)that gave up on fetching after max retries and restart with a dist-upgrade via console? |
| variant | TokenBad: probably :) |
| TokenBad | like have something checked or unchecked |
| indecision | drew: which settings? |
| Haekke | Its not like its for a slow pc, I just see so many things that I dont need, games, office ect and maybe alot of other stuff (running servies for god knows what) which I dont need for running a file server |
| Hubris | <-- feeling dumb here....I've downloaded a .deb package that's older than what's installed....what's the syntax to force it to install? The gui-based installer refuses...as it's older. |
| BeauGeste | how do you get to the restricted repositories from kubuntu? |
| variant | hyperspace: killall applicationname |
| Pelo | NemesisD, it's not totem,s fault it's because of canonical's policy toward proprietary software |
| TokenBad | variant, which is why said could do a sreenshot |
| NemesisD | oh |
