erm. i haven't tried SERVER mode but i think that's what it's for isn't it? smile.gif ended up CLI.

are you waiting for the GUI? maybe you should do the default installation.

most server mode doesnt come with GUI cos it's meant for server, doesnt need all the fancy GUI.
either u install x-window or reinstall the whole thing

Hi all,

I've a new Ubuntu(5.10) installation CD from the official web site, when i try to install on my PC (where this system have WinXP SP2 installed with 3 partition, i plan to install on the last drive, E drive), everything start pretty well , but then while it try to load/start the partitioner at "Starting up the partitioner", at about 41%, it just hang (I've wait for long enough, about 30minutes), but no luck, no response at all, then i try to reset the system and start over again, but still the same, then after that i shutdown totally. In the next day morning, I try to install again, but hey, still the same problem, hang at the "Starting partitioner", I've confirmed that the content of the CD is OK.

Anyone has idea of this? Any solution? Or this is the bug of Ubuntu? huh?

the CD might be scratched or ur CD drive need to be changed
but then again, does this process needs the CD at this stage? might be a bios glicht, or a faulty IDE connector (i think this is most likely)

Guys, any idea where i can get a hold of needed gcc 3++ compiler "package"?
ubuntu64 5.10 came with gcc 4, n i cant compile stuff (vlc, mplayer etc..)
the guides on the net mostly use "apt" , but i still cant configure my usb dongle..
so updating using synaptic is a no-no...

Just curious, why would you need GCC 3... if you already have 4?

Missing dependencies? Video software like VLC might need libmpeg, libxml and other sound libraries, just to name a few. Check your compile error messages, google it if you're not sure.

Using apt would save you all the trouble, of course. wink.gif

i looked every where tongue.gif too used to setting it within my network (DHCP / Static IP) until forgot to look into this part.

I didn't have to do any setting for ADSL connection - (Are you using a USb adsl modem?). It was done automatically. Just make sure you network cable is connected. I did a reboot once with the net cable out and plug it in after Ubuntu boot up - but it failed to connect to the internet. That was with Live CD! Try it and see if it works out this way.

are u trying to use a pppoe dialer or hook up to a network with router? try this

sudo pppoeconf

to get dial thru the console before u download the gnome dialer ...

u can download the pppoe dialer [sudo apt-get install gnome-ppp] and set accordingly

refer to this page: - http://ubuntuguide.org/

or make sure that ur network interface is activated and assigned an IP from the network/router....

yeah well on my network ubuntu no problem. cos my network all set already - just DHCP can settle it. manually configure IP also no problem.

the thing is no matter how you connect - you still need a PPPoE dialer to establish a connection - that dialer is no where to be found.......


metalhead, thx for the post - didn't know that the PPPoE dialer needs to be downloaded. downloading is not a problem, cos my Ubuntu has been folding and sending WUs and such.

i'll probably try it out so that i know what to do next time when i need to connect manually. biggrin.gif
