can somebody help with the internet connection sharing from a ubuntu mashine to an XP one?
mluser-work: just guessing, but newer than ubuntu, you probably want to grab it (src? pkg?) straight from eclipse's site and install by hand (personally, i'd install it as a non-privileged user if it wasn't from a repo)
I'm trying to add a user account on ubuntu, when I successfully add it I can't login. It doesn't even create a home folder
But if I try to add an account with the same user name it says account already exists.
carpii: sounds like a javascript matter???
Does anyone know what the developement channel of ubuntu is? I thought it was #ubuntu-1 but it isn't...
Jinxed553 Be aware that changing partition sizes will change the uuid and cause issues
why does /etc/init.d/networking no longer work? is /etc/init.d/NetworkManager now required?
Pafs321: If you have hardware which would benefit from 64bit, yea...
Hey. I rebooted for the first time after upgrading to 9.04 and now I get the following error: (EE)NVIDIA(0): Failed to load the NVIDIA kernel module! and then it boots in low graphics mode. Can anyone help me out here?
possibly, but like i say its something caused by a script or applet that isnt run when adblocker is enabled
klync: thanks, but I want to try using a package manager first, before going the src method
id recommend getting adblocker extension, its quite common esp for flash
Jack_Sparrow: is there anyway to safely adjust partition sizes
ienorand: i have 4gb of ram... and only using 3gb now
Jinxed553 there is always a degree of risk when working at the partition level.
Quick question: I installed Ubuntu 9.04 using the Wubi app (inside Windows), so Ubuntu uses a virtual disk as its "partition". According to System Monitor, the physical hard drive is availible at /host. Can I safely mount it manually?

Pafs321 It only allows you to use 3.3. the desktop kernel does use the rest. You can see all 4 when runig the server kernel, but it wont be any faster

johnP: it might be worth wile to learn some linux basics. You use 'sudo' to get root rights to change sstyem type things
!sudo | johnP
johnP: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE)

RoBRuLeZ: I don't think that anyone is a mental expert here but with Ubuntu more than likely
Lol!
if i plug my phone (samsung) into my usb port. Which device is it accessible via?
I didn't mean like that :)
Well, my wifi led isn't working
And neither is compiz :(
RoBRuLeZ: what type of wireless card, and compiz will not work unless you have accelerated graphics
Great_Anta_Baka:i think /dev/usb0 or /dev/usb1
Well first the wireless card is the troublesome intel pro 3945abg
Great_Anta_Baka: If it recognises as a mass storage device, usually something like another hard drive (sdc sdc sde or so on). Sometimes more rarely as device name like mmc0 or such. After plugging it in, might be useful to look at result of: dmesg | tail since it will usually say
ciao
Great_Anta_Baka: dmesg will usually tell you.
so ubuntu sees internet and 2 routers. but when i stick hub at end ubuntu cant see net or other routers.. should router be plugged in 1st port in hub, last?

I have a folder with duplicate wmv and avi files. Can anyone help me with a script to remove every wmv that has a duplicate named avi? As in remove if I have foo.wmv foo.avi bar.wmv, it'd only remove foo.wmv.

I am in vi and I keep getting 2 more files to edit on trying to do :wq ... how do I get to them?
tyler_d: :next && try #vim
bobbob1016: you might get the answer here; much more likely in #bash
janedoe__: If you specify url like smb://x.x.x.x/sharename where x.x.x.x is the IP of the box with the share, can it connect then?
bobbob1016 look into fslint
jim__: ty that worked
genii: yup that does get it
"Ex-Chat"
genii: wonder why its not getting list of shares from ... hmm somewhere
janedoe__: Check that the machines all use the same broadcast address
Cool, I'll give that a try, thanks mouseclone!
genii: sorry, how do I do that?
bobbob1016: I'm not much on bash but this is close. for avi in *.avi; do if [ -e ${avi%.avi}.wmv ]; then echo "rm ${avi%.avi}.wmv"; fi; done
hey guys, is there anybody who ever tried Backtrack linux?
genii: ifconfig
hi
janedoe__: I don't normally use the gui network manager, so I cannot guide you through that way. Normally I alter manually the /etc/network/interfaces file. Did you specify some static IP for the box, or does it get dhcp from someplace?
RoBRuLeZ: also look at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=387356
Hey guys, I'm running ubuntu 9.04 on my toshiba laptop, have an ATI graphics card and quite often the screen "flicks" and "jumps" especially when there's a lot changing on the screen, e.g. terminal open with stuff streaming up, and web pages pages with video, any ideas why it's doing it? It doesn't jump like this in winblows
RoBRuLez: Intel seems to be late to the game this time with Linux for some reason, between wireless issues and the Video drives, Intel needs to step it up.. good luck

well, no, we want intel to step it up. linux driver support isn't exactly critical to their business model or anything
Hey guys, I'm having a little trouble with an ubuntu box in house. I ssh into it and when I 'ls' on a large directory, internet drops on the box and i lose my ssh connection. I ran wireshark and I'm not sure how to decipher what's going on other than an assumption that the request is flooding the network. Anyone else have any ideas?
I can only regain internet connectivity by rebooting the machine
I've tried restarting the network with 'sudo /etc/init.d/network restart' but it doesn't ever pick up. Just times out...
does anybody know how to fix this - the auto eth2 (the second interface for the local LAN) cant be seen in the network configuration
