| NoobSauce | Jordan_U: LjL: IndyGunFreak: So without the HDMI-out card, it works... I'm unsure what I can do about this though... maybe this is a motherboard issue... /me -> forums | 00:01 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | NoobSauce, There is a way in your Xorg.conf to specify a specific PCI BUS ( I don't remember how ), that might get it working | 00:01 |

There's on-board video which I guess I'm using now, and then there's this HDMI card that comes with the motherboard (it's not a regular card, it has a feed directly off the motherboard as well as PCI). I'm thinking this non-normal setup is what's causing linux to get confuzzled | 00:03 |

|---|
| Jordan_U | skyfalcon866, No, you can install "kubuntu" on top of Ubuntu and vice-versa, they are just different sets of default applications | 00:05 |
|---|
| LjL | Benalex: no idea sorry, not on GNOME here | 00:05 |

| raulh | odd, seems you know much about this guide me D: | 00:05 |

| Benalex | ok.. Can anyone tell me how can I disable Link to prefixing when creating shortcuts? | 00:05 |

| amason_ | hi guys , i need to install some newer versions of some software on a dapper system. can i use apt for this or can i just upgrade the packages with dpkg ? | 00:09 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | Benalex, The syntax for ln -s is "ln -s /path/to/origianal /path/to/symbolic-link" | 00:09 |
|---|
| lumpy | bbiab gonna see if this worked... | 00:09 |
|---|
| kitche | amason_: umm if there are dapper packages you can just use dpkg if not have to install them yourself | 00:10 |
|---|
| phasegen | just get a pirated windows xp and get rid of vista, if microsoft won't trade you, it's only fair | 00:10 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | Benalex, A symbolic link in Unix is basically the same as a windows shortcut | 00:10 |
|---|
| amason_ | kitche: they aren't dapper packages afaik. | 00:10 |
|---|
| Benalex | Jordan_U, I don't get it , What exactly ln -s does? | 00:10 |
|---|
| kitche | amason_: then compile or install them yourself | 00:10 |
|---|
| amason_ | kit | 00:10 |
|---|
| Jarhyn | or not. it still works outside the building | 00:10 |
|---|
| amason_ | kitche: that wasn't my question | 00:10 |
|---|
| Jarhyn | awesome | 00:10 |

| amason_ | kitche: if i compile from src, i don't want apt to complain on update | 00:11 |
|---|
| amason_ | i just want it to skip that package | 00:11 |
|---|
| kitche | amason_: I answered your question then you told me they aren't dapper packages so I replied | 00:11 |
|---|
| storywarden | question, and i don't' know if there's an easy answer to it. I know practically 0 about ubuntu, but i'm pretty good at computers, and i'm trying to help my husband out, who knows way more about Ubuntu than I do. He has ubuntu loaded on his pc with no problems at all, and then decided he wanted to partition it and load winXP on a secondary partiion so we could play games together (my main computer is winXP i know i suck) he was able | 00:11 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | Benalex, It makes symbolic links ( shortcuts ) to files, it does the same thing that right clicking a file in nautilus and choosing "make link" does, but in the terminal instead of the GUI | 00:11 |
|---|
| wb1722 | so can anyone help me find my drive | 00:11 |
|---|
| kitche | amason_: dapper won't have new packages unless they are security updates | 00:12 |
|---|
| Benalex | Jordan_U, ... Coool , thank you, I will read the manual of ln... "man ln" right? | 00:12 |

| Jordan_U | storywarden, Did windows clobber GRUB ( Ubuntu's boot loader ) ? | 00:12 |

| Jordan_U | Benalex, Yes | 00:12 |
|---|
| storywarden | It may have but he used a special cd he got to restore GRUB after the invasion of windows took over. | 00:13 |
|---|
| amason_ | kitche: ok i'll reprhrase. i have the option to install src or some debian packages.I want apt to not complain on update, i just want it to ignore those packages. Can I blacklist these packages in apt ? | 00:13 |
|---|
| bkraptor_ | does anyone know how to un-hide the userlist so that it is part of the main window? | 00:13 |
|---|
| Odd-rationale | storywarden: So basically he wants to install windows after ubuntu? | 00:13 |

|---|
| mnk3ym4n | zzz: that was a VERY helpful bit of advice - thank you. | 00:13 |
|---|
| storywarden | and he has gone back through and reinstalled ubutu at least 4 times now and no luck correcting any problems. | 00:13 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | Benalex, And remember that you want a symbolic link, not a regular link, regular links are not quite the same as shortcuts and can cause interesting problems if you don't understand them | 00:13 |

| storywarden | if he installs ubuntu with the ethernet cable plugged into the pc then the installation of ubuntu freezes (he's guessing that it's trying to download or check something on the net)... also when he uses live cd's he has no routing at all... can't even telnet to our router. | 00:14 |
|---|
| movi | Jordan_U, lets say i dont care about the menu | 00:14 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | movi, I would just use VLC / Mplayer / gxine | 00:14 |
|---|
| phasegen | storywarden: two questions, first - did he make the partition bootable? | 00:14 |
|---|
| movi | Jordan_U, what im interested in is, what happens supposedly if i insert a commercial dvd, and in totem click "Play Dics" | 00:14 |
|---|
| movi | Jordan_U, does it just start to play at first movie ? | 00:15 |
|---|
| storywarden | i believe so. how would i be able to tell? he can boot between the two partitions. | 00:15 |
|---|
| movi | Jordan_U, or does it flip saying a plugin is missing ? | 00:15 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | storywarden, Has he tried the alternate install CD? | 00:15 |
|---|
| raulh | ok umm now i did | 00:15 |
|---|
| storywarden | yes | 00:15 |
|---|
| phasegen | second - if he did, do you need a menu.list file? | 00:15 |
|---|
| raulh | reboot, and it's downloading thanks odd | 00:15 |
|---|
| storywarden | he's tried ubuntu based and non-ubuntu based. | 00:15 |
|---|
| Benalex | ok.. another question.... under windows, to change current keyboard language I press alt+shift, and to change text direction I press Ctrl+shift.... can this be done under Ubuntu? | 00:15 |
|---|
| storywarden | right now he's downloading a copy of fedora to try but he doesn't want fedora. | 00:15 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | movi, I think the former, but I'm not sure | 00:15 |
|---|
| diafic_ | time for bed. snore! | 00:15 |
|---|
| movi | Jordan_U, could you check please? | 00:16 |
|---|
| Odd-rationale | storywarden: Tell him to check the link i gave you ^ | 00:16 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | movi, The problem isn't with commercial DVD's specifically, gstreamer can't display DVD menus for non DRM'd DVD's either | 00:16 |
|---|
| storywarden | i'll have him do that. | 00:16 |

| movi | Jordan_U, yes, that much i know. however, ive gotten as far as playing .vob files (although for css encrypted the video is garbled) | 00:17 |

| Odd-rationale | storywarden: NP. You should just switch to Ubuntu instead. ;) | 00:17 |
|---|
| phasegen | storywarden: what games are you playing? | 00:17 |
|---|
| Jarhyn | thanks for the article. I was already aware that windows vista doesn't actually burn true UDF file structures though | 00:17 |
|---|
| storywarden | he keeps telling me that but I am reluctant... I really like my windows (for the most part) but right now it wouldn't matter even if I did change... | 00:17 |
|---|
| Jarhyn | otherwise it would WORK with ubuntu | 00:18 |
|---|
| bkraptor_ | so, I don't know if anyone answered this question (as I have been playing with XChat, starting and restarting): does anyone know if the devs will push an updated ati fglrx driver when one that's stable becomes available? | 00:18 |
|---|
| storywarden | he can't get ubuntu to work. | 00:18 |
|---|

| kjp2 | grr. I'm trying to install gutsy on my gateway/motion m1200 and the framebuffer is clearly not working | 00:18 |

|---|
| storywarden | he tried using WINE to run diablo but it wouldnt' work right. | 00:18 |
|---|
| usser | bkraptor, its unlikely new drivers that are not just security fixes are gonna appear in the repos | 00:18 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | movi, I believe so | 00:18 |
|---|
| phasegen | check and see if they'll run under cedega | 00:18 |
|---|
| Dr_Willis | a lot of games can run better under wine if ya use a no-cd crack on them.. sadly :( | 00:19 |

|---|
| storywarden | (my main hang up on windows is that I absolutely adore msOffice and Outlook) | 00:19 |
|---|
| bkraptor_ | okay thanks. I think it's odd they won't push an updated driver even if this would probably fix suspend/hibernate for everyone using the proprietary driver (myself included) | 00:19 |

| Jordan_U | storywarden, So it worked when first installed, then he installed windows on another drive, tried to restore grub but for whatever reason ended up re-installing Ubuntu completely and this time the install left a not fully working system? ( trying to make sure I understand the situation ) | 00:25 |
|---|
| bkraptor_ | so if I activate backports, do I have to disable normal updates? or is the system smart enough not to play ping-pong with the different versions ? | 00:25 |

| LadyLike | i got problem with flash player in gutsy gibbon | 00:25 |
|---|
| kitche | bkraptor_: it uses whatever version is higher pretty much unless you have some odd package that actually decreases when it's updated | 00:26 |
|---|
| bkraptor_ | so those updates that appear under Distribution are the normal updates? | 00:26 |
|---|
| Pollman | does anyone know if the pendrivelinux QKUB works with gutsy gibbon | 00:26 |
|---|
| storywarden | it worked when first installed, then he installed xp on the same drive on a 80GB partition. Then he restored grub, so he can boot between windows and ubuntu but now ubuntu can't route to our router, nor can it route to the depositories for updating packages (the package managers don't work and neither does going through the url's ) | 00:26 |
|---|
| LadyLike | i do compile and manual install but still not solve the problem | 00:26 |
|---|
| LadyLike | what should i do? | 00:26 |
|---|
| storywarden | once he found that he couldn't route, he then reinstalled Ubuntu | 00:27 |

| LadyLike | i already install .. but it's not working | 00:28 |
|---|
| LadyLike | so decided to compile | 00:28 |

| sainzeo | LadyLike: the easiest way, i believe, is to install flash by searching for restricted in Add/Remove | 00:29 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | LadyLike: it doesn't really have to be *compiled* per se... | 00:29 |

| Odd-rationale | storywarden: I would try this. Install ubuntu and select "Use entire disk" then follow the steps in the wiki I gave you. OR Install XP and use the entire disk, and install ubuntu using the "resize partition" slider. | 00:30 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | LadyLike: what file did you download from Adobe's site? | 00:30 |
|---|
| ata4ix | anybody knows where i can get libopenal.so.0 for kubuntu 7.10 32bit? | 00:30 |

| lwizardl | is there anyway to create a non journalized HFS+ partition using only Linux applications like Gparted etc? | 00:30 |

| kitche | ata4ix: probably openal | 00:30 |
|---|
| LadyLike | IndyGunFreak:: tar.gz | 00:30 |

| storywarden | the error we run into when we're trying to reinstall now (using entire disk) is that it freezes during the install because it can't access the network. | 00:31 |

| altbs4 | This may seem premature but I have heard of problems with the onboard intel 82845g graphics in ubuntu I was wondering if there is a fix so I can be ready before I install | 00:31 |

| isleshocky77 | Pelo: It has to do with some thing with my video card. I was trying to get my s-video out to work so I started messing with different drivers and envy. After doing a manual envy driver install this happened. When I did an envy --uninstall-all I still get the same thing although it said it was successful | 00:54 |
|---|
| Pelo | eddy, you were unlucky, stuff usualy doesn'T disapaar when you just hit del, they go to the trash. if you had the shift key held down when you hit del you would have had a confirmation screen | 00:54 |

| LjL | HateX, ext3 is engineered in a way that makes fragmentation a non-issue under normal circumstances. there is a package called "defrag", but it's at least a decade old, and only recently patched to support ext3, it can definitely be dangerous to use | 01:05 |

|---|
| h1st0 | corruptionoflulz: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 01:20 |

| mikecables | No it said there were no restricted drivers. I used the methods outlined at Matrox, and the driver IS faster, but some apps don't work, and I want to roll back to see if they do afterwards. | 01:20 |
|---|
| CoasterMaster | mikecables, ahh, I don't have a matrox video card, so I can't help you with their own drivers, unfortunately | 01:21 |

|---|
| PriceChild | underwatercow, read it | 01:22 |

| corruptionoflulz | mikecables: this would allow you to reconfigure x back to what it was without any drivers, then you can reinstall them yourself... i think. | 01:22 |

|---|
| Pelo | miles8, did you try fglrx-control in the terminal ? | 01:22 |
|---|
| mikecables | If I use that command, will it try to redetect and use what it did initially, because I did a few other things with the graphical version, and the driver never changes or it corrupts the scree. | 01:22 |
|---|
| zdh | Benalex: Third party access means using a program, example evolution to access your mail | 01:22 |

| underwatercow | h1st0: it shows on the bios splash screen doesn't it? | 01:23 |
|---|
| miles8 | Pelo, yes, I would have thought it would be that, but no such command is on the machine, and I did install the package | 01:23 |

| froggy__ | is that gutsy? | 01:59 |
|---|
| * emgent heya | 01:59 |
| IndyGunFreak | froggy__: you didn't see this right above those insructions..... You now have to configure xorg to use your graphic card. The aticonfig tool, provided with the driver, will do that for you (aticonfig does not seem to work for Gutsy Gibbons): | 01:59 |

| smooker_ | hey , what happens if i install xubuntu-desktop at the existing ubuntu with synaptic ? | 01:59 |

| cythrawll | Pelo, all I said was that I don't need it, but the person who uses the laptop will | 01:59 |

| robdig | SavageOne: what is it doing (or not)? | 01:59 |
|---|
| cythrawll | Pelo, the screen goes blank for more than a few seconds and she'll think it's broke | 01:59 |

|---|
| Pelo | smooker_, your menu will have more option and you'll have the choice to boot xcfe from the login screen | 01:59 |
|---|
| SavageOne | I'm reading instructions for installing lcdproc, so basicallt I'm trying "sudo apt-get install lcdproc" which is what every set of instructions I've found says to do, and it's basically saying the package doesn't exist.... also if I do a "sudo apt-cache search lcdproc" it finds nothing | 01:59 |
|---|
| cythrawll | Pelo, and we are talking a few minutes until the login screen appears | 02:00 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | theblock: i think so... not 100% sue though. | 02:00 |
|---|
| theblock | cuz i cant find any | 02:00 |
|---|
| SavageOne | so that would lead me to believe the package doesn't exist, but everyone's saying it doesn't. I tried "sudo apt-get update" but it goes really quick | 02:00 |
|---|
| Pelo | cythrawll, what did you do to get it this away ? | 02:00 |
|---|
| crdlb | mikeooo: that's not necessary or recommended | 02:00 |
|---|
| smooker_ | mm i thout its installing other os :P | 02:00 |
|---|
| SavageOne | maybe my apt-get database is old or whatever but I don't know any other way of udating it other then that | 02:00 |
|---|
| crdlb | mikeooo: pastebin your /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 02:00 |
|---|
| robdig | SavageOne: go to system->administration->software sources and make sure that all of the repos are checked | 02:00 |
|---|
| froggy__ | what does "You now have to configure xorg to use your graphic card. The aticonfig tool, provided with the driver, will do that for you (aticonfig does not seem to work for Gutsy Gibbons):" mean??????? | 02:01 |

| Pelo | SavageOne, check in synaptic enable multiverse and backport , and try again | 02:01 |

| LjL | it's in universe actually | 02:01 |

|---|
| Pelo | cythrawll, that is all you did ? | 02:01 |
|---|
| LjL | SavageOne: sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list and uncomment universe (in gutsy, gutsy-updates and gutsy-security), then sudo apt-get update | 02:01 |
|---|
| * IndyGunFreak laughs at Pelo's disbelief | 02:01 |
| cythrawll | Pelo, the live cd worked fine, after boot after initial install it has been broke | 02:01 |
|---|
| froggy__ | so how do I install 3d graphics and rendering?? | 02:01 |
|---|
| Pelo | cythrawll, what's this machine like ? cpu mem , etc ? | 02:01 |
|---|
| robdig | SavageOne: then edit /etc/apt/sources.list and make sure the repos are un-commented | 02:01 |

| kelsin | mattbot: normall you put all ruby class files in the ruby library directories (don't know where those are atm) then put a file that runs the program (shell script, or simple ruby script that starts some classes) in /usr/local/bin | 02:02 |
|---|
| * robdig thinks LjL has fast fingers :) | 02:02 |
| Benalex | storywarden: I think this is in the hardware itself and cannot be changed | 02:02 |
|---|
| digitori | how does froggy configure his ati if aticonfig doesnt work | 02:02 |
|---|
| kelsin | mattbot: and you should use /usr/local/bin not /usr/bin to not clash with anything from apt by accident | 02:03 |
|---|
| mikeooo | crdlb: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/46649/ | 02:03 |
|---|
| LjL | mattbot: leave /usr/bin alone, you're not supposed to touch that. you could put the "executable" script in /usr/local/bin, and the "library" scripts in /usr/local/lib. if that's the way they're modularized. | 02:03 |

| sexcopter | hi, i have a question. now that we have an actual choice, would you choose using ntfs over fat for a partition to be used by ubuntu and windows, or stick to the good old fat? | 02:12 |
|---|
| Towerblock | sorry indy u still there? | 02:13 |
|---|
| Tech-Mike | jrib - u there man? | 02:13 |
|---|
| LjL | sexcopter: i'd use ext3 :) | 02:13 |
|---|
| kelsin | adamonline45: do you have wlan0 config lines in /etc/network/interfaces? | 02:13 |
|---|
| sexcopter | LjL, and how would you use that in windows? | 02:13 |
|---|
| Towerblock | my sound card is Intel Corporation 82801H | 02:13 |

| DM| | conky is starting to piss me off lol.. it FLICKERS when compiz is on. no matter what i do ( not conky itself ) but makes compiz windows flicker where the conky lies beneth. | 02:13 |
|---|
| Benalex | sexcopter: I suggest NTFS... more secure than fat | 02:13 |
|---|
| riotkittie | sexcopter: i can't imagine wanting to use fat over ntfs in such a situation. although... | 02:13 |
|---|
| LjL | sexcopter: plenty of ways, just google "ext2 windows" and "ext3 windows" (ext2 drivers work, as well). | 02:14 |
|---|
| LjL | !ext3 > sexcopter (sexcopter, see the private message from Ubotu) | 02:14 |
|---|
| tonyyarusso | sexcopter: I use NTFS for the Windows system itself, but put all user data on ext3. | 02:14 |
|---|
| htmldotcom | I have some problems with gdm, can someone help? | 02:14 |
|---|
| sexcopter | basically, i have a fat partition from ye olde times, and just wondering if it's worth changing it to ntfs | 02:14 |
|---|
| adamonline45 | kelsin: no, but I don't have eht0 in there either, and it works fine. Do you know the syntax of what I should add? | 02:14 |
|---|
| riotkittie | htmldotcom: tell us your problems, and find out, buddy. | 02:14 |
|---|
| htmldotcom | I tried installing, but its the newest version of gdm. | 02:14 |
|---|
| Benalex | sexcopter: you can use ext3(linux files system) with windows using Ext2IFS utility , but it is not working 100% | 02:14 |
|---|
| htmldotcom | Well I tried installing KDE alongside with gnome by typing "sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop" and it installed, but after that, gdm wont load | 02:15 |
|---|
| tonyyarusso | Benalex: what doesn't work about it for you? | 02:15 |
|---|
| kelsin | adamonline45: from the command line you should be able to just do "iwconfig wlan0 essid BLAH" then "dhclient wlan0" to bring it up as well, if you need examples for /etc/network/interfaces you can check out "man interfaces" | 02:15 |
|---|
| sexcopter | Benalex: I've also heard that that software isn't 100% safe with data | 02:15 |
|---|
| mikeooo | anyone know how to fix this? | 02:15 |
|---|
| DM| | mikeooo: fix what | 02:15 |
|---|
| adamonline45 | kelsin: Do you know how I'd find the essid number? | 02:15 |
|---|
| riotkittie | htmldotcom: does kdm load? does sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start not bring it up? | 02:15 |
|---|
| mikeooo | mike@mike-linux-laptop:~$ glxinfo | grep direct direct rendering: No (If you want to find out why, try setting LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose) OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect mike@mike-linux-laptop:~$ grep -i aiglx /var/log/Xorg.0.log(==) AIGLX enabled (EE) AIGLX: Screen 0 is not DRI capable | 02:16 |
|---|
| htmldotcom | I didnt try loading kdm. | 02:16 |
|---|
| Benalex | sexcopter: No it is safe... but sometimes you won't be able to delete some files and have to reboot to linux to delete them , which of course may be forgotten and may get you in trouble ;) | 02:16 |
|---|
| kelsin | adamonline45: if you don't knwo the essid of the wireless router you're trying to connect to then there's a big problem | 02:16 |

|---|
| DM| | mikeooo have you installed the driver? | 02:16 |
|---|
| mikeooo | i thought it was included | 02:16 |
|---|
| kelsin | adamonline45: you can type "iwlist wlan0 scan" to scan for newarby access points | 02:16 |
|---|
| Benalex | cythrawll: paste ur menu.lst in private please | 02:16 |
|---|
| mikeooo | if it isn't where can i find it and install it | 02:16 |
|---|
| mikeooo | running .22 | 02:17 |

|---|
| mikeooo | .22-14 | 02:17 |
|---|
| DM| | mikeooo for 3d? im not sure. should be in synaptic if that, but i dont know anything about intel gfx :( sorry | 02:17 |

| riotkittie | idunno. oh my kitchen is on fire. sorry. got to go. | 02:17 |

| Benalex | sexcopter: what size is that fat partition? | 02:18 |
|---|
| htmldotcom | oh, dont call his partiton fat. :D | 02:18 |
|---|

| Benalex | sexcopter: formated in FAT???... I don't think so | 02:19 |
|---|
| mikeooo | so how do i enable direct rendering | 02:19 |
|---|
| thedefender | how do i delete a load sequance | 02:19 |
|---|

|---|
| smooker_ | "The file /usr/src/linux/include/linux/version.h does not exist." | 02:21 |
|---|
| Benalex | sexcopter: well I can't recall what max size FAT fs could be... but I doubt it is 40 (forty gigs) | 02:21 |
|---|
| kelsin | Benalex: it can be much bigger since I assume sexcopter would be using FAT32 | 02:21 |
|---|
| htmldotcom | lol sexcopter | 02:21 |
|---|
| sexcopter | oh yeah, this is vfat/fat32, i'm fairly sure | 02:22 |
|---|
| adamonline45 | kelsin: Alright, I got my essid. When I try to connect to is using iwconfig wlan0 essid the_essid, it says nothing, and naturally dhclient fails. | 02:22 |

| alyxander | question | 02:22 |
|---|
| alyxander | how do i fix | 02:22 |
|---|
| alyxander | The 'Manual' browser command has been chosen, but no command has been set. | 02:22 |
|---|
| alyxander | in pigin | 02:22 |
|---|
| kelsin | adamonline45: does it list an access point with essid when you just run "iwconfig" now? | 02:22 |
|---|
| digitori | fat 32 can be up to about 8 terrabytes | 02:22 |
|---|
| kelsin | adamonline45: and also what error with dhclient, just timeing out? | 02:23 |
|---|
| htmldotcom | anybody know how to solve a problem where gdm isnt loading? (im reasking, lol) | 02:23 |
|---|
| Benalex | sexcopter: anyway... since it is 40 gigs, move to NTFS... for more security and better space utilization | 02:23 |
|---|
| corruptionoflulz | condon: devede worked alright? | 02:23 |

|---|
| sexcopter | Benalex: hehe, i'm more inclined to just do the easy thing and use ntfs :s | 02:29 |
|---|
| Benalex | I recommended it from the first place :) | 02:29 |
|---|
| h1st0 | zdh: yeah its loading a module but its not working. | 02:29 |
|---|
| h1st0 | I'll have to reboot and see if this computer even beeps | 02:29 |
|---|
| kelsin | smooker_: is your sound card not included in the ubuntu alsa packages? | 02:30 |
|---|
| mattwoodyard | where is the failsafe xconfig configured? | 02:30 |
|---|
| smooker_ | it was working after i installed ubuntu but now it doesnt work | 02:30 |
|---|
| Benalex | sexcopter: before ntfs-3g Fat was prefered... but now you can read/write to NTFS under ubuntu... so why not? | 02:30 |
|---|
| sexcopter | Benalex: indeed | 02:30 |
|---|
| digitori | mikeooo: isnt there anytyhing in the ubuntu forums about your graphics card? | 02:30 |
|---|
| smooker_ | i know my sound card is nVidia MCP61 HDA, and its supported by Alsa drivers.. | 02:31 |
|---|
| kelsin | the error you're getting is because you don't have the kernel headers installed, I would advise trying to solve the problem without installing alsa from source, that will most likely lead to further issues | 02:31 |
|---|
| mikeooo | yeah but other people have direct rendering enabled by default | 02:31 |
|---|
| tarelerulz | So any one have a Broadcom Corporation BCM94311MCG wlan mini-PCI (rev 02) wirelcard ? | 02:31 |

|---|
| h1st0 | smooker_: install the kernel headers package | 02:31 |
|---|
| digitori | mikeooo: how did they manage to have direct rendering enalbled by default? | 02:31 |
|---|
| kelsin | smooker_: sudo aptitude install linux-headers | 02:32 |
|---|
| mikeooo | support for it is included | 02:32 |
|---|
| mikeooo | its supposed to work by default | 02:32 |
|---|

| tumbleweed__ | it doesn't | 02:33 |
|---|
| tumbleweed__ | just says GRUB: Error 15 | 02:34 |
|---|

|---|
| tumbleweed__ | when it had an ntfs partition on it, I got error 17 | 02:34 |

| tumbleweed__ | very few BIOSes support it, if any | 02:55 |

| bthornton | I should note that this is not a pure gigabit network--there are 100 Mbps devices hooked into the gigabit switch. This won't down-throttle everything down to 100 Mbit, will it? | 02:55 |

| h1st0 | Pollman: you should just be able to boot the flash drive and use the restricted manager to install them. | 02:57 |
|---|
| dark_ninja | ati + desktop effects = suck | 02:57 |
|---|
| kimberly | h1st0, I did ask that and merely got the response use k3b. Now I am sure it is fine and good but k3b DOES NOT integrate with my ubuntu desktop | 02:57 |

| tumbleweed__ | pianoboy3333 : what is photobooth? | 02:58 |
|---|
| Odd-rationale | Would someone mind going to http://www.mythbuntu.org/downloads and checking if the i386 dirrect download link works? All I get is a blank page. | 02:58 |
|---|
| Pollman | h1st0, It asks me to reboot after enabling them, but it doesn't enable them after, it just asks me to reboot again | 02:58 |

| Ashfire908 | bthornton, make sure that the two computer can read/write that fast. a computer can send/recicve data faster than it can read/write | 02:58 |

|---|
| Kornholijo | tumbleweed__: would it be possible netinst to go thru wifi? | 02:58 |
|---|
| pianoboy3333 | tumbleweed__: it's a program for macs that works with a web cam to take pics/video and you can also minipulate it | 02:58 |
|---|
| tumbleweed__ | ah | 02:58 |
|---|
| tumbleweed__ | yes | 02:58 |
|---|
| tumbleweed__ | cheese | 02:58 |

| Ashfire908 | bthornton, *can't | 02:58 |
|---|
| tumbleweed__ | sudo apt-get install cheese | 02:58 |
|---|
| pianoboy3333 | wease|: well, if you wanna do it in the program, gimp doesn't help | 02:58 |
|---|
| h1st0 | Pollman: hrm... maybe changes aren't being written prior to the drive being unmounted? | 02:58 |
|---|
| htmldotcom | I would switch cards, but a)I have a laptop so it would be a pain b)I really want desktop effects. | 02:58 |
|---|
| scottybea | it worked! | 02:58 |
|---|
| kimberly | bleh, I am gonna just boot into windows. Something like burning mp3's to a cd should not require this much effort. | 02:59 |
|---|
| tumbleweed__ | Kornholijo : perhaps, I've never tried, but if your wifi card works out of the box you may be able to | 02:59 |
|---|
| scottybea | but whydid i have to do that | 02:59 |
|---|
| kelsin | kimberly: I would try brasero or gnome-baker then :) | 02:59 |
|---|
| bthornton | Ashfire908: yeah I guess that's what I'm trying to figure out. These are SATA drivers, however, so I didn't think they'd be THAT much of a bottleneck. | 02:59 |
|---|
| Flannel | Odd-rationale: thats because its some silly javascript redirect: http://us-ca.cdimages.mythbuntu.org/mythbuntu-7.10-i386.iso is a real direct link | 02:59 |
|---|
| Pollman | h1st0, I thought of that, but it saves the change like desktop backgrounds and other stuff | 02:59 |
|---|
| h1st0 | htmldotcom: what type of card do you have? | 02:59 |
|---|
| scottybea | today | 02:59 |
|---|
| astro76 | scottybea, Ubuntu uses .profile not .bash_profile | 02:59 |
|---|
| kelsin | scottybea: so for some reason your bash is not reading .bash_profile on startup | 02:59 |
|---|
| Kornholijo | tumbleweed__: i got ipw2200bg :P | 02:59 |
|---|
| h1st0 | Pollman: is / mabye read only? and /home isn't? | 02:59 |
|---|
| htmldotcom | h1st0: ATI Radeon Xpress 200M | 02:59 |
|---|
| scottybea | so how do i fix it | 02:59 |
|---|
| tumbleweed__ | you can try and see, then | 02:59 |
|---|
| kelsin | scottybea: there you go :) from astro76 lol put it in .profile | 02:59 |
|---|
| h1st0 | !ati > htmldotcom, htmldotcom Read the private message from ubotu. | 02:59 |
|---|
| tumbleweed__ | it's quite possible | 02:59 |
|---|
| Kornholijo | ty | 02:59 |
|---|
| scottybea | nice! | 02:59 |
|---|
| scottybea | thank you all for your help | 02:59 |
|---|
| Odd-rationale | Flannel: Thanks! | 02:59 |
|---|
| kelsin | scottybea: and that's why we don't use private messages lol | 02:59 |
|---|
| scottybea | iv been tryin at this for so long | 02:59 |
|---|
| astro76 | scottybea, no prob ;) | 03:00 |
|---|
| Pollman | h1st0, / being the root of the drive? | 03:00 |
|---|
| h1st0 | scottybea: just cp .bash_profile .profile | 03:00 |
|---|
| scottybea | lol ill try | 03:00 |
|---|
| h1st0 | Pollman: yeah like maybe the /home folders are the only ones that are writable. | 03:00 |
|---|
| Ashfire908 | bthornton, rsync is a very nice file copying program. you could try that. | 03:00 |
|---|
| smooker_ | OMG! i found the problem with my sound card!! when i boot, if i choose Ubuntu386 sound not work, if i choose Ubuntu (generic) sound works ! xD | 03:01 |
|---|
| krammer | what does it take atleast 20 seconds to open the terminal any suggestions? | 03:01 |
|---|
| htmldotcom | thx h1st0 | 03:01 |
|---|
| jimmygoon | Any MoBlock experts around? | 03:01 |
|---|
| Pollman | h1st0, hm do you know where the nvidia restricted drivers are saved? | 03:01 |
|---|
| smooker_ | whats the difference between 386 and generic ? | 03:01 |
|---|
| scottybea | it didnt work the cp move | 03:01 |
|---|
| h1st0 | Pollman: wel there are kernel modules that are installed but not sure where they are going. | 03:01 |
|---|
| kelsin | scottybea: well I put all of my aliases in .bashrc so you can try that as well... my .bash_profile just loads .bashrc and .profile | 03:02 |
|---|
| h1st0 | smooker_: the optimization for cpu 386 version is kind of obsolete atm. as generic will work | 03:02 |
|---|
| Pollman | h1st0, do you have gutsy running on a pendrive? | 03:02 |
|---|
| astro76 | smooker_, Ubuntu has been transitioning to everyone using generic | 03:02 |
|---|
| dark_ninja | kernel modules for nvidia go to /lib/modules/-current kernel vers- | 03:02 |
|---|
| htmldotcom | Pollman: I dont have now, but I have had ubuntu on a flash drive in the past, whats your question? | 03:02 |
|---|
| scottybea | lets see what i have in .profile | 03:02 |
|---|
| chimp | At the minute when i use my laptop and close the screen, it goes into some form of hibernate, however it does not come out of it, i just get a black screen when i open the laptop, how do i try to debug this? | 03:03 |
|---|
| Pollman | htmldotcom, did you manage to get compiz or desktop fx working? | 03:03 |
|---|
| smooker_ | btw, i installed Kubuntu-desktop Xubuntu-Desktop and Edubuntu-Desktop from Synaptic, how do i swich between them ? | 03:03 |
|---|
| h1st0 | Pollman: I believe I installed fiesty to pen drive. | 03:03 |
|---|

| scottybea | so it loads .profile everytime the terminal is opened or when you log out? | 03:03 |
|---|
| tumbleweed__ | honestly, I wouldn't really use Ubuntu on a pendrive, it makes more sense to use Damn Small Linux or something akin to it | 03:03 |
|---|
| h1st0 | Pollman: but version shouldn't matter. I have knopppix on a pen drive now. | 03:03 |
|---|
| htmldotcom | Pollman: that stuff doesn't usually work to well with flash drives in my experience, if you did get the drivers right, it would be too slow | 03:03 |
|---|
| Pollman | I'm using an old crappy computer at the moment that can't boot from usb so I'll have to do this tomorrow | 03:04 |
|---|
| alyxander | ok question | 03:04 |
|---|
| alyxander | pigin and ubuntu The 'Manual' browser command has been chosen, but no command has been set. | 03:04 |
|---|
| alyxander | wtf | 03:04 |
|---|
| dark_ninja | just type firefox | 03:04 |
|---|
| tumbleweed__ | Pollman : I suppose it | 03:04 |
|---|
| Pollman | htmldotcom, why would it be slow if it was stored locally in the RAM | 03:04 |
|---|
| tumbleweed__ | err | 03:04 |
|---|
| kelsin | scottybea: when bash starts up as a login shell it loads .profile, I would put your alias defs in .bashrc which is loads when it's started as an interactive shell | 03:04 |
|---|
| alyxander | dark_ninja, me? | 03:04 |
|---|
| tumbleweed__ | Pollman : http://damnsmalllinux.org/ | 03:04 |
|---|
| dark_ninja | alyxander: yes | 03:04 |
|---|
| krammer | what does it take atleast 20 seconds to open the terminal any suggestions? | 03:04 |
|---|
| tumbleweed__ | I'd suggest using that for a mobile OS rather than Ubuntu | 03:04 |
|---|
| jimmygoon | Anyone know how to check what lists moblock is downloading? | 03:05 |
|---|
| htmldotcom | yes Pollman, it will never be as fast as a hdd install from my experience, and Ive tried almost all pen drive distros | 03:05 |
|---|
| alyxander | dark_ninja, i dont understand type firefox where | 03:05 |
|---|
| scottybea | do i have to close all terminals i have open for the changes to take effect? | 03:05 |
|---|
| kelsin | krammer: only terminal takes that long? | 03:05 |

|---|
| rafal | h1st0: yes | 03:05 |

| Pollman | htmldotcom, obviously not as fast as hdd install but fast enough to be usable yes? | 03:05 |
|---|
| htmldotcom | yea, look into DSL, but you wont be getting any nice desktop effects Pollman | 03:05 |
|---|
| h1st0 | rafal: can't you change in System > Preferences > Display? | 03:05 |
|---|
| htmldotcom | I really dont think its practical Pollman, why cant you just do a hdd install? | 03:06 |
|---|
| htmldotcom | Or do Wubi or something | 03:06 |
|---|
| Pollman | htmldotcom, I want it to be portable | 03:06 |

| justin_ | hi, i am able to access the internet, but i am unable to access anything on my local network (such as my router) any suggestions? | 03:06 |
|---|
| scottybea | Succes! | 03:06 |
|---|
| scottybea | the .bashrc route worked | 03:06 |
|---|
| smooker_ | maybe stupid question but, where is the Control Panel in Ubuntu ? | 03:06 |
|---|
| rafal | h1st0: not in kde | 03:06 |
|---|
| htmldotcom | mmm. eh, its not really practical, unfortunately. | 03:06 |
|---|
| dark_ninja | alyxander: there should be a box right below the place where you selected manual | 03:06 |
|---|
| kelsin | justin_: when you say "access" anything, what do you mean, can't ping your other computers? | 03:06 |
|---|
| h1st0 | rafal: you may want to ask the people in #kubuntu they may no a better way. | 03:06 |
|---|
| owh | During a text-only installation, the installer asks for network settings, how do I reconfigure my network with the same user interface? You used to be able to do dpkg-reconfigure etherconf, but that no longer works. Any suggestions - other than manually editing /etc/network/* ? | 03:06 |
|---|
| justin_ | ya, pinging my router returns host unreachable | 03:06 |
|---|
| scottybea | thank you very much for your help | 03:07 |
|---|

|---|
| sainzeo | i'm getting a segmentation fault error when I attempt to open evolution, any help would be greatly appreciated! | 03:07 |
|---|
| jimmygoon | portable? or mobile? portable - you can have ubuntu on a removable drive... sure... but if you want a frugal install then you want something like DSL... configured properly. Something RO and something volatile for files | 03:07 |
|---|
| kelsin | justin_: I assume you're pinging your router with it's ip address? | 03:07 |
|---|
| tumbleweed__ | err | 03:07 |
|---|
| tumbleweed__ | portable | 03:07 |
|---|
| justin_ | kelsin: ya | 03:07 |
|---|
| alyxander | dark_ninja, thats the eror msg that pops up | 03:07 |
|---|
| Pollman | I guess I'll have to install on hdd, for the partitioning part of the install, when you partition it, if I choose a 160gb partition will it use that or the 340gb left over | 03:08 |
|---|
| kelsin | scottybea: bashrc is the better place for that stuff. bash has a very complicated startup stuff. like I said before I make my .bash_profile load .bashrc (I think that was some some other distros default) and have been doing that for a while | 03:08 |
|---|
| dark_ninja | right, i'm on windows so i can't help you | 03:08 |
|---|
| dark_ninja | sorry | 03:08 |
|---|
| === Nematocyst_ is now known as Nematocyst |
| h1st0 | Pollman: what are you doing just copying the install to usb or something? | 03:08 |
|---|
| tumbleweed__ | the problem with ubuntu is that it isn't really meant to be run on more than one kind of computer with the same install, so I don't believe it does a modprobe every time it is booted | 03:08 |
|---|
| scottybea | ah ic well i thank you i will get back to learning | 03:08 |
|---|
| kelsin | justin_: does "route -n" list your router's up as the dateway for the destination "0.0.0.0" | 03:08 |
|---|
| alyxander | dark_ninja, never mind i got it thanks man | 03:08 |
|---|
| justin_ | kelsin: yes | 03:09 |
|---|
| Pollman | h1st0, I'm going to install it on my home computer, and have the pendrive for portability w/o the desktop fx | 03:09 |
|---|
| h1st0 | Pollman: you can tell it to install to the 160gb of free space if you want. Or manually partition the drive. | 03:09 |
|---|
| kelsin | justin_: If your router is configurable could it just be not responding to pings, what else doesn't work in the local network? | 03:09 |
|---|
| Pollman | h1st0, also how long does it usually take to partition? | 03:09 |
|---|
| h1st0 | Pollman: the install gui has an option for manual partitioning | 03:09 |
|---|
| h1st0 | Pollman: few seconds | 03:09 |
|---|
| tumbleweed__ | yeah | 03:10 |
|---|
| arooni-mobile | everytime i try to use that cool deskbar applet to search my /home directory..... i get no results... its like its not indexing my files....... can someone tell me how to fix? thanks! | 03:10 |
|---|
| justin_ | i cant access it via http like i usually do either | 03:10 |
|---|
| tumbleweed__ | shouldn't take more than a minute to partition | 03:10 |
|---|
| h1st0 | Pollman: are you setting up dual boot on the home computer or just ubuntu | 03:10 |
|---|
| justin_ | i can using my laptop though | 03:10 |
|---|
| dark_ninja | arooni-mobile: bug in tracker | 03:10 |
|---|
| Pollman | h1st0, I chose a 160gb partition and clicked next, and it stayed at 0% for at least half an hour | 03:10 |

| dark_ninja | wait for a fix | 03:10 |

| Pollman | h1st0, dual boot with vista :| | 03:10 |

| kelsin | Dankchild: def a question for cedage, esp since you're paying them for support | 03:11 |

| kelsin | justin_: is the laptop running ubuntu as well? | 03:11 |
|---|
| justin_ | kelsin: yes | 03:12 |

| h1st0 | Pollman: what I would do is have vista installed and leave some free space on the drive. THen just tell the installer to use the free space. | 03:12 |
|---|
| justin_ | kelsin: dhcp though | 03:12 |
|---|
| kelsin | justin_: do the "route -n" outputs on both machines differ alot or at all? | 03:12 |

| h1st0 | Benalex: ahh no one thing I haven't checked lol brb | 03:13 |

| h1st0 | Benalex: lol that was it. | 03:14 |
|---|
| kelsin | Dogfishguzzler: you need to pass a umask to the mount command | 03:14 |
|---|
| h1st0 | Pollman: np | 03:14 |
|---|
| jsoftw | I think you might need to mount the partition with the gid/uid options set. | 03:14 |
|---|
| PirateHead | Dogfishguzzler: You need to mount it using special options and stuff. | 03:14 |
|---|
| h1st0 | Pollman: also I recomend creating a seperate /home partition but you don't have to. | 03:14 |
|---|
| PirateHead | Dogfishguzzler: umask sounds like the right term. Look at the man page for mount for more info. | 03:15 |
