naxa: apt gets it's information from the internet everytime you update ... if there is a newer version in the repository, it will get that, if the version is the same it doesn't...

fccf: I think what he means is after the download of the packages how is the order of installation determined for the packages
fccf, yeah i know. but how does it know that libc6 is more important than amarok?
fccf, of course there is dependency
fccf, but it has to build a dependency tree
where does it keep it?
I have tried everyway ...I guess I should give up - Thanks for your help
I think he lost his connection :(
amarok wont fetch lyrics says fetching lyrics then nothing

I have a LUKS-encrypted root partition that I have installed Ubuntu 9.04 to. I have of course placed /boot on a separate ext2 partition, and my boot loader loads and functions correctly. However, I can't seem to get my initrd to load the LUKS-encrypted root using the appropriate /dev/mapper/ address. Original question here: http://superuser.com/questions/50535/luks-encrypted-root-partition-in-ubuntu-9-04

I have recently changed a wireless network, which was initially WEP, to WPA. Now, the sole linux computer (ubuntu hardy, up to date) on that network refuses to start networking at boot. I always have to manually type in: 'sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart' in a terminal after the computer boots. What could be the problem? My interfaces file is here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/288690/
ashley_: when u try to watch a video on say youtube does it ask you to install flash

ashley_, i'm still qaiting for you to put the output in pastebin
ashley_: then do so by the links provided by youtube
*waiting
naxa: I think you answered your own question, every package has dependencies, those depends get install first and then the package. once the depends are installed I think it just installs everything else in alphabetical order. I might be completely wrong though
ashley_: thats what i had to do and flash works fine
I have the flash player plug-in & something else as well that allows & works with flash - let me get the name 4 you
are there some service like landscape from canonical but free???
I have a Quickcam Express connected to my USB port, and Ubuntu recognizes it and puts it at /dev/video0, but i can't use it with any webcam-using application (Cheese, Ekiga, aMSN). They say that i don't have any webcam
is there a way to boot to windows right from grub, without chainloading NTLDR?

apache usually runs as user "www-data". why cant i see "www-data" in the user/groups management form? there's only root and me in there

can u not open synaptic package manager
does someone know how to connect to this server via irssi?? it doesnt work (hate current client so need to go to irssi)
ashley_: can u not open synaptic package manager
IdleOne, it would be interesting to find out how is it really done. however there are pages on the internet saying "aptitude hangs while building the dependency tree" so it seems there is a more advanced method. what is more i don't see how this tactics won't end up in a loop
no sir

VCoolio: By editing the original source code and recompiling.
http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/thankyou/?installer=Flash_Player_10_for_Linux_(.tar.gz)
bigfootbuilt: that's the reason it's so hot.. but Flash on linux eats CPU in a bad way
ashley_: im no good with terminal
lets see
Gartal: Have you heard if 9.10 will address it?
VCoolio: that's great, but *how*
"Ex-Chat"
ashley_: I missed what you are trying to terminal, what are you tring to do?
grawity: that's a little bit impossible in this case; could I also download the .deb and edit in there?

Karmic is BETA and WILL break -
Quontrex: is it possible to netboot through a wireless connection?
mquin: i just installed irssi
Quontrex: you know you can scroll up, or use /last
VCoolio: A .so is a Linux shared library, in binary form - you can only edit it with a hex editor, which is mostly useless if you didn't write the library.
Thanks for the info
I am running it threw the hard drive because it will not allow to to download from any other servers
I didnt know how far back it was dint know /last either
grawity: I get a python error somewhere, with lines and everything, and I know what I must change :(
ACTION gives a frustrated sigh
Join-D: do '/set nick' and look for 'nick =' in the status window
i need help
resno: well as you wont have drivers for the wireless driver I doubt it highly
VCoolio: If it's Python, it can't be a .so :|
VCoolio: Eh, just try opening it with a text editor.
fccf, I get the same error with all the noapic options removed from menu.lst
mquin: ok that worked.. i am now trying to reconnect

VCoolio: What _exactly_ are you trying to run?
fccf: I need 3.5 it for Hibernate tools. I might just have to install the binary of tomcat6 :/ I'd rather not but, what else can i do
i think it was intirc, but im not sure
mquin: next error is !chat.freenode.net *** No identd (auth) response
Join-D: I said, ignore the identd messages.
Quontrex: i figured youd say that
ok ok
ashley_: what happens when u try to download from that link directly
grawity: shellementary (e17 port of zenity) and I get this, so the .so was my mistake, different file; where do I find this: File "build/bdist.linux-i686/egg/elementary/c_elementary.py", line 7, in
I heard Snow Leopard has something setup with the hard drives so that it can use the full drive space
michael_: hold on .. I have a solution
Join-D: And mquin was asking about what nick were you using for irssi.
VCoolio: Then $EDITOR build/bdist.linux-i686/egg/elementary/c_elementary.py
Join-D: you can ignore the identd message - it's not important
is that possible? and if so, how come linux doesn't?
resno: I just did a netboot install of 9.04 on my lifebook and it needed to be cable connected

I want to make an image of a few partitions on my HD. There are 3 partitions in total. One is /boot, the other is swap, and the last is my root fs. The fourth is Win7 but I just want to leave that alone. I have heard dd is probably the best option. I am planning on writing the image of my local 250GB HD to my 1TB external HD. I want to reformat this weekend but just in case anything goes wrong I would like to just write the disk
resno: pm me I can talk you through a netboot
images back to my HD. Am I forgetting or overlooking anything that could go wrong?
"Ex-Chat"
Join-D: Are you aware that you're currently talking on freenode right now?
tehbaut: It's technically impossible to use the entire space. You need to reserve at least _something_ for the filesystem data.
tehbaut: heh heh. no, they simply use a different notion of what GB means.
anything that can go wrong, will
will someone please PM me to help me
Pici: i am aware, ty
Pici: but this client sux, i need cli client
tehbout, linux splits your HD into various partitions, some is used for the OS, some for SWAP space...etc
Is there any app I can use to check SOCKS4 SOCKS5 proxies?
Pici: He is trying to connect with irssi instead of the current client. Scroll up.
michael_: I feel like you are going about things the wrong way ... that package was built for something else and has dependencies that are not installable
tehbaut: depending on who you ask, 1GB either equals 2^30, or 10^9. those numbers are not the same.
well it's a bit annoying that I can't use a whole 45GB ...that's a lot of freaking space...
tehbaut: you're not gaining any extra space.
tehbaut: What OS X displays as 50 GB, is actually 5,000,000,000 bytes.
can you show how your paritions are setup, as this is probably the issue
Does anyone here use BBC iplayer on karmic x86_64 beta?
fccf: are you talking about the tomcat pack or eclipse?
tehbaut: it's just that hard disk manufacturers decided to adopt a convention that allowed their disks to appear bigger.
reality says GB is a multiple of 1024 hdd manufacturers say it is a multiple of 1000 extrapolate from there
why couldn't bits and bytes have been metric?! :P
michel_: eclipse
zer0x, #ubuntu+1 for karmic
Hey all - I'm in grub hell right now and I'm a little stumped. I'm working through the forums, but I can't escape the "Error 15"
Join-D: what does '/set user_name' give you?
hi everybody
Quontrex: nothing to do with reality. actually, the metric system does imply that 1GB = 10^9. hence the proliferation of GiBibytes and the like. it's a convention, like any other.
Hey -- on the website for Ubuntu LiveUSB creator it says: "Enables persistent home (Intrepid and later only; currently broken)". Is it broken? It seems to work, I couldn't find more info.
