| kaolti | hey i have a problem sharing internet connection to a winxp box can anyone help me? i have the bigger part solved i just need someone who is good with startup scripts and basic networking anyone? |
| donkehofdarkness | firestarter can share your connection |
| stefg | kaolti: firestartr can set that up for you |
| kaolti | yea i know but i cuoldnt get it work with firestarter so i read a tutorial with ifconfig and manually setting up ip forwarding the problem is that it works but when i restart this linux box i have to do it all over again |
| stefg | kaolti: /etc/init.d/rc.local is intended for your own startup procedures |
| LGKeiz | How do I know which graphic card ubuntu is using? |
| runa | hi i want to make a proxy to compX but i have to pass through compY. How can i do it with ssh? |
| New-User | hello, i started to install Ubuntu 6.06, it takes hours to start and after passing many hours not start installation to my PC |
| kaolti | stefg: i can use regular terminal commands in that script? |
| Trixsey | Hey, I tried 2.6.20-15 and activated the prop. driver (I have a Radeon X700) in System>Restricted>RDM.. after reboot my screen just died.. what do I do? had to go back to -14 to get in again |
| LGKeiz | How do i know which graphic card Ubuntu is using |
| stefg | kaolti: correction... it's symlinked to /etc/rc.local .yes, just write the commands you issue manually in there, make sure it ends by exit 0 |
| donkehofdarkness | New-User> 6.06 installs in about 15-20 minutes There's a problem if it takes longer |
| Wamphyri | LGKeiz: how many video cards are you using? |
| Trixsey | LGKeiz, right now Ubuntu is using Radeon X700 :D |
| LGKeiz | 2 |
| kaolti | stefg: cool thanks lemme try if it works |
| LGKeiz | I have 2, a 64MB card and a 165MB, I was wondering which one Ubuntu is using I want it to use the 165MB |
| stefg | Trixsey: is linux-restricted-modules-generic installed? |
| donkehofdarkness | New-User> For the liveCD install you need 256MB ram or it can get stuck |
| Ramunas | before and after installing KDE(I'm on Gnome) http://img470.imageshack.us/img470/2360/screenshotzl5.png how do I get it to look the way it used to? |
| Wamphyri | LGKeiz: what video card is this monitor connected to? |
| Trixsey | stefg, yes |
| donkehofdarkness | New-User> you might try the alternative install CD |
| LGKeiz | Wamp, sec. lawl |
| donkehofdarkness | well.. it's 4am here. I'm off to bed |
| stefg | Trixsey: so you are positive that the appropriate driver for -15 is there, it just won't work? |
| kaolti | stefg: another thing.i need to run those commands as root, can i use sudo -i in that script, or i can edit /etc/rc.local ? |
| Trixsey | stefg, it showed up in the RDM and I enabled it it asked me to reboot, I did |
