| marnanel | I've just upgraded to a 2.6 kernel so I can use a USB camera. When I plug it in, udevmonitor and gnome-volume-manager both see that a camera of the correct make was connected. Yet it doesn't mount under /media or launch the photo app. I have tried this on other machines running Ubuntu and it's worked. Any pointers as to what to try next? |
| Irishman2020_ | cjae: one sec |
| Transience | anyone know if i can use a belkin wireless pci card with ubuntu 64bit? |
| SickOfWindows | vy video card is so cool that, in windows xp, it supports 2 monitors. can ubuntu do that? |
| Irishman2020_ | SickOfWindows: yes |
| Harpette | datrigg: hmmm i did that yesterday, and it did mount all partitions on that drive |
| Penguin | ohhkk another question... when i get my good comp up and running, does beryl support dual monitors? |
| Fezzler | I installed Fiesty Fawn Desktop from LiveCD. Working beautifully. Now I want to network the dedicated Ubuntu box to home network with 4, sometimes 5, computers: Ubuntu, Vista Home Premium, iMac G5, iMac G3 Rev. A Bondi Blue, and sometimes Dell XP laptop. I want Ubuntu to serve as a back-up file server (simple..map to network folders on Ubuntu box). Do I do this by installing "samba" on the Ubuntu? |
| Irishman2020_ | SickOfWindows: if its nvidia, get envy for ubuntu penguin: yes, its in the options as to how it handles it |
| Penguin | oh excellent ^^ |
| SickOfWindows | IrishDave Display Adapter: Radeon X850 Irishman2020_: sorry, the message above was fdr you |
| Harpette | datrigg: i went to Places > Computer, and navigated from there, and i could browse the partitions by just clicking away |
| datrigg | harpette: how did you get the drive to mount then...I figured it would automount...but I haven't changed the config fstab |
| Penguin | ok moar questions im addicted now. I updated to 7.04 and my ubuntu changed to edubuntu :S is this bad and can i get back to just ubuntu easily? |
| radhios | \paart |
| Irishman2020_ | SickOfWindows: make sure you get the ati drivers and you should be fine, i run 2 monitors with my nvidia card |
| radhios | \part |
| Harpette | datrigg: nor did i |
| SickOfWindows | Irishman2020_: cool |
| psusi | penguin: wow.. how did you manage to do that? ;) |
| datrigg | harpette: I don't see it there :( |
| scoobydoo28139 | I am on day 2 of ubuntu now ,and been around a little, 1. how or where do i find software for my tvcard?2. what is knoppix? |
| Irishman2020_ | penquin: you downloaded the wrong update... go into synaptic and get ubuntu |
| Penguin | psusi: noooo clue |
| SickOfWindows | Irishman2020_: i didn't know ubuntu is that good |
| cjae | Irishman2020_, can I not just add the address not just click |
| marnanel | scoobydoo28139: knoppix is a distribution that runs off one CD, so you don't need to install it or change what's currently on your hard disk. |
| Penguin | irishman2020: do i just select the ubuntu package? |
| Irishman2020_ | SickOfWindows: I'm pretty sure if my vid card could handle it, I could run 4 |
| SickOfWindows | wow! |
| Harpette | datrigg: sorry the drive is not in my computer right now, so i can't look around |
| Irishman2020_ | cjae: checking, sorry, trying to do 20x things at once |
| marnanel | SickOfWindows: look up "xinerama" |
