| aleka | Heh.. that is what led me to believe you would be the 'perfect' person to bother :) | 00:03 |

| fabio_ | hi i just compiled the hardy 2.6.24 kernel with some patches on my gutsy amd64 system. all went fine. but problem is, it only built a linux-headers-2.6.24-1 package and not also a linux-headers-2.6.24 which is needed to install the first one | 00:08 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | littlebear72, You should upgrade | 00:08 |
|---|
| fabio_ | any help? | 00:08 |
|---|
| fabio_ | i followed the steps on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile to compile | 00:09 |
|---|
| justinh | hiya folks. got an interesting little tickler for you. I've got a gutsy install I've been trying to convert to netbooted - so far it's gone pretty well.. the pxelinux.0 is doing its thing and the kernel with initrd image is loading. But during boot the kernel panics. just before that I see http://www.pastebin.ca/808879 - so I think maybe it's trying to initialise eth0 when it doesn't have to and is consequently losing /. | 00:09 |
|---|
| soundray_ | fabio_: you don't really need headers if you have the complete source | 00:09 |
|---|
| fabio_ | hmm but nvidia-installer is complaining | 00:10 |
|---|
| onats | has anyone used azureus html web gui here? doesn't seem to be working on my installation | 00:10 |
|---|
| fabio_ | that it can't find the include/linux/version.h file | 00:10 |

|---|
| soldats | its more advanced but im not sure why audacity isnt working | 00:11 |
|---|
| sharpie | why does rsync start as a service on startup? | 00:11 |
|---|
| aleka | soldats: Will do...didn't think it was stable enough last time I looked at it... Thanks~ | 00:11 |
|---|
| kitche | sharpie: because it's a service] | 00:11 |
|---|
| sharpie | kitche: but it's run manually | 00:11 |
|---|
| soldats | aleka, hmm i heard it was stable but id look into it if you really want to edit music | 00:11 |
|---|
| kitche | sharpie: umm the client does | 00:12 |
|---|
| kitche | sharpie: but it's also a daemon | 00:12 |
|---|
| sharpie | kitche: that does..what? | 00:12 |
|---|
| kitche | sharpie: so rsync the client can be used to rsync files | 00:12 |
|---|
| aleka | soldats: My basic need right now is being able to record playing music (kinda like replay radio in windows)... have stuff on my rhapsody playlist I want to record | 00:13 |
|---|
| dyerotic | question...i have just installed ubuntu...and im stuck in 800x600 and i wanna chuk my monitor out the window | 00:13 |
|---|
| TigranG | aleka: You can try Sound Recorder | 00:13 |
|---|
| Jack_Sparrow | dyerotic: Hold off on that option for a few | 00:13 |
|---|
| TigranG | aleka: it comes with ubuntu | 00:13 |
|---|
| dyerotic | what do you mean Jack_Sparrow?? i cant stand 800x600 and i tried that guide on the website and it didnt help | 00:13 |
|---|
| Jack_Sparrow | dyerotic: from cli.. sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 00:13 |
|---|
| sharpie | kitche: so..if i disable it, i won't be able to rsync? | 00:13 |
|---|
| dyerotic | ive done that i believe, and it still messes me up | 00:13 |
|---|
| Jack_Sparrow | dyerotic: Vesa driver will get you 1024x768 if you get locked out | 00:14 |
|---|
| dyerotic | im gonna do sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 00:14 |
|---|
| dyerotic | and see how it goes | 00:14 |
|---|
| soundray_ | sharpie: you can use rsync without rsyncd, but with reduced capabilities | 00:14 |
|---|
| aleka | soldats , TigranG >> Thanks | 00:14 |
|---|
| sharpie | soundray_: what do you mean by "reduced capabilities"? | 00:15 |
|---|
| dyerotic | ok so i should choice vesa Jack_Sparrow? | 00:15 |
|---|
| sharpie | soundray_: what won't i be able to do? | 00:15 |
|---|
| kitche | sharpie: no you will be able to but you just can't rsync files from that computer to another | 00:15 |
|---|
| TigranG | aleka: What I did to get recording working is in Volume Control increase the 'In Gain' | 00:15 |
|---|
| soldats | aleka, ahh i get what you need. im not too sure but i think jokosher should suffice for now if it works. i do recording for bands but i use more professionla recording eqiptment for tha | 00:15 |
|---|
| Jack_Sparrow | dyerotic: try to setup your video card and monitor to their specs, but if you cant get it go to veas to get back here | 00:15 |
|---|
| sharpie | kitche: oh, meaning that if i only rsync locally between drives, i can cancel the daemon? | 00:15 |
|---|
| xcst | compiz fusion is working in my gutsy, how can i customize it | 00:15 |

|---|

|---|
| enigmata | <waseem> YAY! Help me. | 00:29 |
|---|
| waseem | i can see what peeps mean when they say its easier to use than other OS's | 00:29 |
|---|
| timotimotimo | waseem: we need more people like you, who are willing to try it out | 00:29 |
|---|
| waseem | lol i had such a bumpy first experience | 00:30 |

| hairs2long | hmm, probably not then | 00:34 |
|---|
| whyameye | I've spent some time reading the automatix link. It's a tough problem. As long as the ubuntu community asks people to do things "by hand" we aren't really offering any real alternative to commerical OSes...so maybe there'll be a better solution soon.... | 00:34 |

|---|
| soccer_hawk10 | hey all. can someone tell me why the super+C command doesn't work in amaroK in 7.10? | 00:40 |
|---|
| hairs2long | justinh: if using initrd, you need to have NIC and NFS modules in initrd, and the init script should connect and pivot root | 00:40 |
|---|
| justinh | hairs2long: aye that's the way I used to do it many moons ago on gentoo. haven't yet successfully built & installed my own kernel on ubuntu yet though | 00:40 |
|---|
| soccer_hawk10 | it's supposed to be a play/pause command, but it is ineffective | 00:40 |

| gunspoja | ok ubuntu DOES detect that the modem was put in, but it doesn't show up any wireless connections in the network settings app | 00:40 |

| Zog | um, reading that link doesn't answer my question- it's probably something really basic, but... I'd rather not make a mistake here. | 00:42 |
|---|
| hairs2long | I prefer the simpler method, and refuse any hardware I cant recomplie the drivers for | 00:42 |
|---|
| justinh | hairs2long: I'll have another play with initrd & see how I get on. if not, then I'll go with building my own kernel for a trip down memory lane. and if that doesn't work I could always buy a big usb stick ;) | 00:42 |

| Rafabe | hello...I am installing linux for the first time, Ubuntu 7.10 on a P3 1GHz with 256mb of RAM. On the install screen , I looked at the help and it said I needed 384 mb of RAM to install it. I googled for more info, and supposedly I can use other memory managers than Gnome, but how do I install the OS in the first place so I can replace Gnome? | 00:49 |
|---|
| hairulfr | Just reinstalled - wasn't there an art manager once? | 00:49 |
|---|
| teknoprep | amarok owns | 00:49 |
|---|
| MLeBlanc | kelsin: I am considering this for an install on an old PC, I have never tried running WoW on it. | 00:49 |
|---|
| DIL | weith, most software is 32bit anyway | 00:49 |
|---|
| soundray_ | gunspoja: I see -- in that case you shouldn't be looking for a wireless interface. Configure ppp instead. | 00:49 |
|---|
| soldats | MLeBlanc, hah that should run pretty good as far as i now but i think WOW prefers to run with 2gigs of ram | 00:49 |
|---|
| gunspoja | soundray_, how do i do that? I've never used wireless before :( | 00:49 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | Zog: i dont' usually use the Live CD, but is there an option to like, "Use free space" or something like that | 00:49 |
|---|
| MLeBlanc | soldats: Alrighty, I'll give it a shot. Thanks a lot! | 00:49 |
|---|
| teknoprep | Rafabe, the reason you need 384 is becuase the cd is a live install... i would suggest installed xubuntu on that machine | 00:49 |
|---|
| timotimotimo | rafabe: you might want to consider a different distro or an older version of ubuntu | 00:49 |
|---|
| kelsin | Rafabe: download the alternate cd and use that to install a command line system, or just to complete the normal installation. At either point you can then install any other packages you want (including other light wight windows managers) | 00:49 |
|---|
| soundray_ | gunspoja: System-Administration-Network-Modem connection | 00:49 |
|---|
| Rafabe | tek: will it give me the option to use Xubuntu on the installation if I proceed? | 00:49 |

| soccer_hawk10 | soldats: alright, thanks | 00:50 |
|---|
| xcst | erUSUL, how about the themes? how can i install it? the theme files are all .emerald | 00:50 |

| IndyGunFreak | timotimotimo that is borderline ridiculous advice to Rafabe | 00:50 |

| Rafabe | kelsin: so no way to get this standard Desktop CD to install? I have to download a different version? | 00:50 |

| noname6243 | is it safe to say that If my computer has atleast 3 errors in memtest86, it have a problem with my memory ? | 00:50 |

|---|
| kelsin | waseem: "sudo apt-get remove <app>" or "sudo apt-get purge <app>" to remove config files as well | 00:50 |
|---|
| soundray_ | gunspoja: are you using Ubuntu? | 00:50 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | Rafabe: no no no... you'll need to do one of two things... add ram, or download the alternate install CD. | 00:50 |

|---|
| soundray_ | gunspoja: see the menus in the upper left corner? | 00:51 |
|---|
| kelsin | Rafabe: yeah it doesn't use the livecd system, just gives you the standard (just as easy) text mode installer, will install fine, then you can install whatever you want (plenty of light choices out there) | 00:51 |
|---|
| Rafabe | that's what I meant...the "alternative" 7.10 version | 00:52 |

|---|
| Pelo | enigmata, state your problem, don't post a link to it , and hope someone knows how to fix it, your other resources also include google and www.ubuntuforums.org , I suggest suearching in the forum first | 02:04 |

|---|
| enigmata | <stroyan>, 2.6.22-14-generic | 02:07 |
|---|
| Pelo | tyronepolleri, in the blacklist ? you blacklisted your video driver ? why ? | 02:07 |
|---|
| stroyan | enigmata: That patch doesn't match 2.6.22-14-generic at all. There is no ad1884_init_verbs[] array in the 2.6.22-14 driver. There is no ad1884 at all. | 02:08 |
|---|
| tyronepolleri | Pelo: no I mean it is there by default | 02:09 |
|---|
| enigmata | <stroyan> what can I do? | 02:10 |
|---|
| Pelo | tyronepolleri, as far as I know you should be able to run at least the basic desktop effects with an intel card, mine can handle them and it's a 865, anything over that is a bit over my head, you should try asking in #compiz-fusion, I don't think you will need to install any beta of anything, but I might be wrong , they will be able to tell you | 02:10 |

| huh | enigmata, you need the right options passed to the module and perhaps need to compile the latest alsa-driver from the alsa site | 02:14 |
|---|
| stroyan | enigmata: If your hardware really needs a kernel with that patch then you need a newer kernel or a major backport. Do you really know that you need that patch? Or are you guessing? | 02:14 |
|---|
| Pelo | Kalamansi, I mean each pc will update indiviualy whenyou plug them into thenet, I don'T thnk there is a way of exporting updates from one pc to the other, there might be if you kind of created your own mirror of the updates but I think that might be a bit of work | 02:14 |

|---|
| huh | enigmata, Well if you get the latest alsa stuff a reboot may get it to work | 02:32 |
|---|
| xcst | mneptok, the file format is invalid | 02:32 |
|---|
| mneptok | xcst: then you have a corrupted download | 02:33 |
|---|
| benzs_s | danc3: uh, to be honest with you it didn't occur to me htat she may not have mounted it... uh... ok hang on | 02:33 |
|---|
| xcst | wait there it is | 02:33 |

| RootyRootRootWoo | I'm tired of gnome, what is an allternative (old graphics card) | 02:33 |
|---|
| * mneptok goes back to sharpening his psychic mind-sword | 02:34 |
| danc3 | RootyRootRootWoo: XFCE | 02:34 |

| benzs_s | 'unable to mount volume, device is not removable, etc etc etc' | 02:34 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | RootyRootRootWoo: xfce?.. fluxbox? | 02:34 |
|---|
| d3MMoNuL | :| | 02:34 |
|---|
| kelsin | RootyRootRootWoo: just google linux windows managers, xfce and kde are also full desktops but there are a million other windows managers that can be run | 02:34 |
|---|
| Flannel | RootyRootRootWoo: If your card can handle gnome, it can handle KDE. You might try that. There are a lot more choices as well, obviously. Perusing synaptic might be good | 02:34 |

| xcst | how do you use cairo clock | 02:34 |

|---|
| huh | codeamuk, that is why there is a alsa-oss | 02:39 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | xcst: easiest thing is to install gdesklets | 02:40 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | !gdesklets | xcst | 02:40 |

|---|
| Baumer | hmm I can't seem to find it on the hardware list... I believe its sigmatel or something like that. | 02:46 |
|---|
| huh | Marine_, do a ifconfig to see if the device is made | 02:46 |

| halflife28 | i'm stumped, grub keeps giving me an error 22, i have all my settings right in menu.lst, but it still keeps giving me the error | 02:46 |

|---|
| hairulfr | Does anyone know how to change the Trash and Home folder icons? I can change every other icons except for these two, and it's very annoying, because the default ones are hideous. If noone know the answer, does anyone know where I find the default/original/standard ones etc, so i can just erase and replace them? Cheers people. | 02:47 |
|---|
| huh | Martin___, I know that... | 02:47 |

|---|
| soldats | Kalamansi, im not so sure on it but inkscape does almost anything photoshop does | 02:48 |
|---|
| darklos | how i get a working version of air-crack? | 02:48 |
|---|
| huh | Martin___, and use wpa_supplicant to access the wireless router | 02:48 |
|---|
| Martin___ | huh: I even configured the WEP key in the manager | 02:48 |
|---|
| huh | Martin___, I can tell you how... | 02:48 |
|---|
| soldats | darklos, i believe you can get it through synaptic | 02:48 |
|---|

|---|
| illusory | good thing too | 02:49 |
|---|
| huh | Martin___, sounds like nothing is wrong with the driver | 02:49 |
|---|
| illusory | wep can be cracked so quick with air-crack | 02:50 |
|---|
| soldats | illusory, so true | 02:50 |
|---|
| mogra | if my machine is on longer than a couple of hours, suddenly sound dies and I can't seem to get it going again (prompting a reboot). any ideas why this would happen? | 02:50 |

|---|
| jk__ | mogra: it's just time thing? you sure? | 02:52 |
|---|
| jk__ | mogra: you confirmed that by just letting it sit, doing absolutely nothing, and *poof* no sound ? | 02:52 |
|---|
| qt-x | dose sombody use ircII ? | 02:52 |
|---|
| Martin___ | huh: ok, lemme try wireless-tools... lemme grab it and install it first from repo | 02:53 |

|---|
| adamonline45 | ? | 02:53 |
|---|
| jk__ | meoblast: i'm not 100% sure it'll do video for ogg actually, but it's a good bet | 02:53 |
|---|
| meoblast001 | why does Kino cause memory leaks while importing files? | 02:53 |
|---|
| [digit] | the speed in network manager says 54 Mb/s, yet i still cant get over 200 KB/s | 02:54 |
|---|
| d3MMoNuL` | mneptok seems that in lspci it`s a PCI ethernet card :) | 02:54 |
|---|
| [digit] | its so strange | 02:54 |
|---|
| adamonline45 | meoblast001: The developer probably assigns memory dynamically and forgot to free it after he was done with it... | 02:54 |
|---|
| meoblast001 | well it acts simmaller to my memory leaks | 02:55 |
|---|
| meoblast001 | the system slows | 02:55 |
|---|
| meoblast001 | then it stops functioning | 02:55 |
|---|
| Kalamansi | soldats : inkscape ? | 02:55 |
|---|
| meoblast001 | to the point where only moving the mouse works | 02:55 |
|---|
| adamonline45 | meoblast001: Ahh, can't help ya with the high-level stuff 8) | 02:55 |
|---|
| soldats | Kalamansi, well it really depends on what you want to do, what do you need photoshop for | 02:56 |
|---|
| meoblast001 | it hasnt slowed this time yet | 02:56 |
|---|
| qt-x | how do i connect to an irc server on port 5050 or 8080 or 80 ? | 02:56 |

| meoblast001 | but its taking forever | 02:56 |
|---|
| Condoulo | I have a question about KDE4. Will it be worth using when it comes out? | 02:56 |
|---|
| d3MMoNuL` | IndyGunFreak what`s whit the eth0:avah ...? | 02:56 |
|---|
| Condoulo | qt-x- what IRC client do you use? | 02:56 |
|---|
| Flannel | qt-x: using which program? | 02:56 |
|---|
| Kalamansi | soldats : install in ubuntu 7.10 desktop if possible | 02:57 |
|---|
| Flannel | Condoulo: Most would say yes I believe. You'll get a better answer in #kubuntu. | 02:57 |
|---|
| qt-x | right now chatzilla | 02:57 |
|---|
| Condoulo | Flannel- Ah. Ok. :) | 02:57 |
|---|
| Martin___ | huh: I got madwifi-tools installed | 02:57 |
|---|
| soldats | Kalamansi, yes i understand but for what purpose do you NEED photoshop for, if you want to edit raster graphics or edit or create vector graphics | 02:57 |
|---|
| Baumer | I get this error when I try to test my recording under the sound settings before it freezes: Failed to construct test pipeline for 'gconfaudiosrc ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink profile=chat' | 02:57 |

|---|
| reportingsjr | How do I restart the screen thing? My resolution is restricted to 800x600 (once again) and I don't have an option for any larger ones. | 02:58 |
|---|
| hairulfr | reportingsjr: ctrl + alt + backspace | 02:58 |
|---|
| hairulfr | reportingsjr: You may have to manually enter the resolutions in xorg | 02:59 |
|---|
| Kalamansi | soldats: creat logo | 02:59 |
|---|
| soldats | reportingsjr, "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" is a way to do it in the terminal but if you do it this way you need to read the pagers carefully and use default on most things | 02:59 |
|---|
| Condoulo | qt-x- I am not 100% sure, but on the preferences for an IRC server you connected to (FIle preferences on Chatzilla I think), there is an option to enter a port number. I am not 100% sure because I don't have Chatzilla extensions installed. | 02:59 |
|---|
| ekim|linux | Does anyone use adesklets ? | 02:59 |
|---|
| reportingsjr | That did.. nothing, except log me off. | 02:59 |
|---|
| huh | luks is cool | 02:59 |
|---|
| hairulfr | Anyone know what the the icon for "homefolder" and "desktop" are called? | 03:00 |
|---|
| huh | I can hide stuff | 03:00 |
|---|
| ekim|linux | anyhow | 03:00 |
|---|
| ekim|linux | I can't get adesklets to work | 03:00 |
|---|
| ekim|linux | I installed the gutsy package | 03:00 |
|---|
| ekim|linux | and ran adesklets_installer -t and I get an error | 03:00 |
|---|
| ekim|linux | then with -n and -r | 03:00 |
|---|
| d3MMoNuL` | when i restart the network settings at some point finds some DHCPDISCOVER on eth0 but at the end i get no DCHPOFFERS (No working leases in persistent database - sleeping.) | 03:00 |
|---|
| qt-x | this irc client was a fast solution for now but o other computer i have access only on those ports | 03:00 |
|---|
| ekim|linux | -t is for Tk -r for Raw terminal and -n for ncurses | 03:00 |
|---|
| onats | !vnc | 03:00 |
|---|
| ubotu | VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely. It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX | 03:00 |
|---|
| ekim|linux | but I keep getting some python tracebacks | 03:00 |

| adamonline45 | What's a good codec to use in k9copy for ripping a dvd? And a good bitrate? I'm a DVD noob 8) | 03:01 |

| Xaero_Vincent | can freenx be used to access windows apps from linux | 03:01 |
|---|
| Xaero_Vincent | ? | 03:01 |
|---|
| d3MMoNuL` | mneptok eny ideas? :| | 03:01 |
|---|
| Xaero_Vincent | or just the opposite? | 03:01 |
|---|
| soldats | Kalamansi, ok well when doing logos its best to do it in a format that lets you resize it to whatever size you want without pixelating the image. so for you i woudl suggest inkscape because it is a vector program specifically for logos and vectors. you may use "the GIMP" as well for logos since it is a very advanced program for photo editing and is simialr to photoshop. the only difference between GIMP and photo shop is photoshop can handle | 03:02 |
|---|
| soldats | vectors and GIMP cant. but if you use the gimp and inkscape together you should never need another photo program | 03:02 |
|---|
| elcasey | I'm having trouble with gparted. It scans for devices and never stops, and then I get an error about /dev/fd0 being mounted read-only, but I don't even have a floppy. Any ideas?

|---|
| Pulshion | hi, does anyone know hot to make mplayer work if you have compiz running? | 03:02 |
|---|
| ekim|linux | compiz shouldn't break mplayer | 03:02 |
|---|
| elcasey | nope, mplayer runs fine for me | 03:02 |
|---|
| qt-x | so ther is a method that i do not know without connecting to an ssh server on this port ? | 03:03 |
|---|
| elcasey | Pulshion: try removing and reinstalling it | 03:03 |
|---|
| Pulshion | it doesnt break it, no video, but sound works | 03:03 |
|---|
| onats | is there anyway i can login/startup an ubuntu pc, remotely? | 03:03 |
|---|
| onats | will it be via vnc? | 03:03 |
|---|

| Pulshion | hi, does anyone know how to make mplayer work if you have compiz running? If i switch video output to x11 it works, but on default xv it doesnt work...is x11 good or bad? | 03:08 |
|---|
| elcasey | d3MMoNuL`: it sounds like you don't have the correct drivers installed for your wifi. this can be a problem with livecd versus local install. | 03:08 |
|---|
| Flannel | adamonline45: If you want to do vector stuff, you should check out inkscape. GIMP is a raster based program. | 03:08 |
|---|
| soldats | adamonline45, yes it very much supports layers but as i recall it does not support vectors inkscape is a far superior program for them. i tend to use gimp in accordace with inkscape for my needs in logos and other designs | 03:08 |

| hairulfr | Bug here (Well possibly): Icons for Home folder and Desktop have two names which the system uses: user-desktop.png, fs-gnome-desktop.png, gnome-fs-home.png and user-home.png - this seems weird and like a mistake. The FS stuff is, as far as i recall something from older versions. this makes it hard for icons-themers... Oh well... | 03:36 |

| Flannel | dsnyders: And personally I suggest Maildir for your local mailbox format, but that's just me. There are lots of resources out there for both getmail and procmail. You should have no problem finding a tutorial sorta thing. But be sure it ask if you are. | 03:40 |

| Brantis | So, It should be installed as the Master drive, and my XP drive should be set to Slave? | 03:41 |
|---|
| soldats | Brantis, if you want to boot linux first yes | 03:41 |

| Flannel | Brantis: Doesn't matter, as long as GRUB is on the drive that you boot to. | 03:41 |

| Brantis | Live CD is not cutting it because of the lack of ram | 03:42 |
|---|
| soldats | Brantis, ahh you need to dual boot | 03:42 |
|---|
| Flannel | Brantis: Your BIOS picks a harddrive's MBR to boot to. GRUB needs to be installed so the BIOS boots to it. From the sound of it, if you have no other drive in when you installed, your BIOS isn't booting to the slave. | 03:42 |

| bazhang | xcst: that should set you up in that regard--easiest way is through synaptic--need to add more repos there | 03:54 |
|---|
| bulmer | killerbeesateme-> if everything is fine, what is the issue? | 03:55 |
|---|
| hairulfr | killerbeesateme: try sudo apt-get remove [NetworkM] then sudo aptitude remove [NetworkM] and sudo apt-get remove --purge [Netwoek] sudo aptitude pnetwork - if you can? | 03:55 |
|---|
| killerbeesateme | bulmer: I can't install or upgrade any packages. I normally wouldn't mind, but doing a reset via the button to install packages is not the greatest way to go | 03:55 |

|---|
| xcst | do those include dvds? | 03:59 |
|---|
| killerbeesateme | hairulfr: it didn't crash, but if I run that command I'm 99% sure I'm going to hang. It's asking me to configure that package which isn't fully installed...i think at least | 03:59 |
|---|
| meoblast001 | soldats: Kino | 03:59 |
|---|
| xcst | bazhang, do those include dvd? | 03:59 |

| killerbeesateme | hairulfr: I ran into this problem a day ago on a debian box, where a config file was missing an option. I was able to fix that by adding the option, but in this case, I'm not sure what I can do | 04:00 |

|---|
| xcst | bazhang, i have finished installing but still some wont play | 04:07 |
|---|
| soldats | FlyingSquirrel32, there should be a hot key in the rhythm box config in the gui app you should remove the hotkey and use it for the totem config | 04:07 |
|---|
| mattycoze | huh i'll show you the error message i get... | 04:07 |
|---|
| xcst | im using mplayer, but in totem they are working | 04:07 |

|---|
| bazhang | xcst: you might want to try a different player then--vlc seems to be the app of choice for hard to play stuff | 04:09 |
|---|
| FlyingSquirrel32 | soldats: but i don't see a way to run totem | 04:09 |
|---|
| adamonline45 | soldats: Yup! Thanks again :) | 04:09 |
|---|
| xcst | bazhang, im just wondering coz b4 i installed gutsy they are just working fine | 04:09 |

| meoblast001 | ok im back | 04:10 |
|---|
| Ashfire908 | is there a easy way to get the diffs for all the packages that can be updated? | 04:10 |
|---|
| bazhang | xcst: you just need to get the player that plays the majority of stuff best for you--mplayer might be for most stuff--and vlc for the rest, have to experiment there :} | 04:10 |
|---|
| alokin | huh, im using the alternate cd now for ubuntu PPC for my mac g5, and it did not change anything, the smae problem still occurs. | 04:10 |
|---|
| meoblast001 | dang it | 04:11 |
|---|
| xcst | bazhang, in the mplayer maybe it has something to do with the preferences? | 04:11 |
|---|
| killerbeesatem1 | hairulfr: well here's what happened. the command that apt asked me to run went fine. so, i proceeded with your instructions to apt-get remove network-manager. it wasn't able to stop the network manager (which shouldn't be running, since i disabled it). so it failed. I was still able to run commands under my normal user, however, any sudo commands freeze | 04:11 |
|---|
| soldats | FlyingSquirrel32, when you go to keyboard shortcuts does it ask you to enter a command, if so try to enter "totem" and if that works enter the key controls you want for it | 04:11 |

|---|
| hairulfr | killerbeesatem: No, that sounds very very strange | 04:12 |
|---|
