| neptho | Can anyone recommend information for one unfamiliar with both the Debian packaging system, and a few years shy on trying to make custom modules work? I'm trying to build ndiswrapper and wap_supplicant, but without knowing which tree matches the specific kernel installed (since it invaribly gives me a loading probllem), this machine's non-functional until I can get it back on the network. | 12:04 |
| Trevan | Punkass: I don't know what the package would be called. If it's cpp, it appears to be flagged as installed in synaptic. | 12:05 |
| punkass | gcc maybe? | 12:05 |
| punkass | or g++ i cant remember | 12:05 |
| spiv | neptho: apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r` | 12:05 |
| spiv | Or linux-source-... if you really need to. | 12:05 |
| neptho | spiv: It's a bit hard to do when I have no network. ;) Do you know how easy it might be to copy the standard tree to a cdrom to copy across? | 12:06 |
| spiv | neptho: what hardware are you trying to build drivers for? | 12:06 |
| Trevan | punkass: Thank you, I'll install that (and dependencies) and see what breaks next. :) | 12:06 |
| neptho | spiv: Crappy ACX111 based card, and I need WPA, so that leaves ndiswrapper. :/ | 12:06 |
| spiv | neptho: Sure, just grab it out of the apt repo directly via http. | 12:06 |
| neptho | How can I point apt to the CD? /etc/apt/sources deb file://...here's where I get lost | 12:06 |
| punkass | Trevan: good luck :) | 12:07 |
| spiv | neptho: grab the deb by hand from http://archive.ubuntulinux.org/ubuntu/pool/main/l/linux-source-2.6.8.1/ | 12:07 |
| neptho | the ndiswrapper built against linux-image-2.6.8.1-3 is both old and broken with my card, so even if I could switch to WEP, it wouldn't work. :( | 12:07 |
| spiv | neptho: and you can use dpkg -i xxxx.deb to install it. | 12:07 |

| spiv | iirc. | 12:13 |
| joem | heh, specially because gstreamer didn't do m4a | 12:13 |

| pepsi | what bios? | 12:15 |
| pepsi | can you set the bios to recognize the usb keyboard as ps2? | 12:15 |
| pepsi | my keyboard didnt work otherwise | 12:16 |
| neptho | Yes. I have it set to recognize the keyboard pre-boot, and it works in BIOS. It works fine with most kernels, however the most recent linux-image-686 tag (two days ago?) killed the modules for USB | 12:17 |
| neptho | so, I was stuck sshing in remote and rebooting it back to an elder release. | 12:17 |
| neptho | For the most part, I have to admit that Ubuntu's been one of the most painless distributions I've dealt with. ;) | 12:18 |

| neptho | What's the safest way to keep from having acx_pci loaded? It won't work with my NIC, and I need to use ndiswrapper. Right now, I've put a pre-up rmmod acx_pci in my /etc/network/interfaces - but there has to be a better way. | 02:02 |
| neptho | majorfunk: Neither grub NOR lilo work? | 02:03 |
| majorfunk | nope when I try grub it says installation failed and lilo gives a segmentation fault | 02:03 |
| neptho | Hrrm. Are you overclocking at all? What's your disk setting in BIOS? Is it LBA? | 02:03 |

| neptho | With the 4.10 release, Grub gave me quite a bit of pain and still complains, but it works after putting it in /dev/hdx1 where hdx is where I installed it. I installed GAG as my primary bootloader (gag.sf.net), and added the linux ext2/3 partition to chain to. | 02:06 |
| jvic | limaunion: i will... actually i tried a couple of weeks ago, but had no success because apparently there's some problem with my partition layout and ubuntu want to erase my entire hard drive.. so i'll do it later, when i do some backup of my data and correct my partitions | 02:06 |

| pepsi | heh | 03:07 |
| JakeandBake | in theory, you could resize the partition...but i never trust that because there is always the risk of data loss....or at the very least, you can't resize it to its fullest potential because of file fragmentation | 03:08 |
| JakeandBake | if you wanted to try, read about partition magic and the like | 03:08 |

| === idaho45 [~john@201.243.27.66] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| GOwin | i see. | 03:15 |
| JakeandBake | what is it that you don't want to lose from windows? | 03:16 |
| GOwin | i can always reinstall ubuntu. you see, i've tried other distros before and that left my harddisk with partitions recommended by other distros. i wanted to combine several smaller partions. | 03:17 |
| GOwin | i got lots of data in my ntfs partitions. | 03:17 |
| JakeandBake | how many GB? | 03:17 |
| pepsi | if you leave the partition you want to keep alone it should be fine | 03:17 |
| pepsi | but you could delete a few consecutive partitions and replace them with a single one or whatever | 03:18 |
| bur[n] er | anyone know if and how you can install ubuntu from the LiveCD? | 03:18 |
| pepsi | burn it and boot from it | 03:18 |
| GOwin | i'm confused with the partitioning tool that came with the ubuntu CD. i can't seem to resize or combine the partions that i had | 03:18 |
| goatboy | bur[n] er: you can't. | 03:19 |
| JakeandBake | i agree, the partitioning tool and basically the entire install process for ubuntu is kind of confusing...or atleast not very user friendly | 03:20 |
| pepsi | you can always drop into another terminal and use fdisk from there no? | 03:20 |
| GOwin | and the default recommended partions are the swap and the /? | 03:20 |
| JakeandBake | yes | 03:20 |
| JakeandBake | so you'd have NTFS (which you can't write to from ubuntu without recompiling the kernel) and then / and then swap | 03:21 |
| JakeandBake | i liked ubuntu so much that i completely made the switch from windows, and moved all of my data over to ext3 partitions | 03:21 |

| jazzka | Se7h, how is it possible? | 04:27 |
| JStrike | Se7h : gstreamer is very good. You just had an old version | 04:27 |
| Se7h | well...actualy one wmv i have here, it didn't gave me the sound | 04:27 |
| Se7h | JStrike old or not | 04:27 |
| Se7h | ubuntu its recenet | 04:27 |
| Se7h | so | 04:27 |
| Se7h | its supposed to be with one | 04:27 |
| Se7h | ;P | 04:27 |
| Se7h | xine does the work fine | 04:28 |
| mdz | JStrike: the latest gstreamer is already in | 04:28 |
| JStrike | With playbin? | 04:28 |
| mdz | it still doesn't seem to work particularly well for me with video | 04:28 |
| Se7h | mdz me neither | 04:28 |
| mdz | 0.8.7 | 04:28 |
| JStrike | And you had ffmpeg? | 04:28 |
| Se7h | so i've removed it | 04:28 |
| Se7h | and installed xine | 04:28 |
| JStrike | I think the new ffmpeg was only released yesterday | 04:29 |
| jazzka | what can I install/add to view wmv files on totem? | 04:30 |
| JStrike | The pre-release is actually what you want | 04:30 |
| JStrike | http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/src/gst-ffmpeg/pre/ | 04:30 |
| JStrike | jazzka : You will need w32codec and xine and totem-xine. Or just install a gst-ffmpeg(I think it supports wmv, although I could be wrong) | 04:32 |
| Se7h | jazzka totem-xine does it | 04:32 |
| jazzka | just tell me the name of the package :) | 04:32 |
| JStrike | if it is wmv 9, nothing plays it that I have found | 04:32 |
| Se7h | jazzka totem-xine | 04:33 |
| JStrike | demanding | 04:33 |
| jazzka | ok | 04:33 |
| jazzka | well, I've using mplayer until now, and I could play ANY multimedia file type | 04:33 |
| tseng | http://ffmpeg.sourceforge.net/ffmpeg-doc.html#SEC16 | 04:34 |
| JStrike | Then there we go. Install ffmpeg | 04:36 |

| deebee | mazza, No. I'm just more loyal to GNOME than Slackware | 06:29 |
| neptho | I have a rather odd query regarding the generic esd/gnome configuration. Way back in neverland when I was using arts under KDE, It would allow passthrough so one program wouldn't have an exclusive lock on the audio device. Is this possible with esd? | 06:29 |
| neighborlee | is anyone else having trouble installing ut2k4 ?...I can't get first CD to unmount LOL | 06:29 |
| mazza | phlaegel : it's more about new licensing then new techs. | 06:29 |

| ushooz | thom_, if you add universe to your apt-get source list it is available as a binary from there | 07:06 |
| hornbeck | WX: the 13th I think is still the release | 07:06 |
| thom_ | thnx how do i do that i am a n00b | 07:06 |
| WX | ok thanks hornbeck | 07:07 |
| elmaya | any1 running alias wavefront on ubuntu? | 07:07 |
| WX | is there a guide to using ubuntu as a server? | 07:07 |
| ushooz | thom_, for simplicity sake for me and you... :) the docs for adding universe is on the ubuntu website :) | 07:07 |
| WX | or is it not yet recommended? | 07:07 |
| thom_ | thnx man | 07:07 |
| ushooz | sufehmi, that can be tricky | 07:07 |
| ushooz | sufehmi, are you certain you soundcard is supported by the default alsa drivers in kernel 2.6? That is the first step | 07:08 |
| jdub | WX: there's no 'guide', but it's much the same as running debian | 07:08 |
| elmaya | for a server install debian sarge | 07:08 |
| WX | thanks jdub | 07:08 |
| WX | i currently run gentoo on my servers | 07:09 |
| jdub | elmaya: um, not that i've heard | 07:09 |
| jdub | elmaya: (note that sarge doesn't have security updates) | 07:09 |
| WX | and it likes to screw with nicely running software more often than not | 07:09 |
| elmaya | well then woody | 07:09 |
| sufehmi | ushooz: thanks for the hint, I've got an AIDA boot CD, I guess I'll restart with it to find out the soundcard in this machine | 07:09 |
| ushooz | sufehmi, that will be a good start to narrowing it down | 07:09 |
| ushooz | get as much info you can about the soundcard as possible | 07:10 |
| sufehmi | ushooz: thx again, I'll restart to find out now | 07:10 |
| linux_mafia | WX, if you type "custom" (no quotes) on install, you can install a minimal set of packages, no X etc, then go from there, same as a base debian install, if you are familiar with that | 07:10 |

| theantix | if there is a way, I don't know of it | 08:17 |
| punkass | k | 08:17 |
| theantix | I find totem-xine to be completely adequate for all my playback needs except for divx avis with .sub subtitles (mlayer) and .ram files (realplayer) | 08:19 |
| === poin_t [~point@203.130.197.226] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| punkass | yeah and the new realplayer is pretty slick | 08:19 |
| d-b | There's Real Player for Linux? That I didn't know | 08:20 |
| theantix | punkass, I don't know if you can get the w32codecs to wrk with it though, haven't tried or looked into it at all | 08:20 |
| theantix | d-b, real.com/linux | 08:20 |
| punkass | yeah i was just curious..i have totem-xine installed already..never thought to try the w32codecs with gstreamer | 08:21 |
| theantix | d-b, it's gtk2 based and surprisingly slick | 08:21 |
| punkass | especially compared to the old version...ewww | 08:21 |
| theantix | yeah, very true | 08:21 |
| theantix | plus it didn't hijack my system like the older one did | 08:21 |
| d-b | Great. GTK all the way! | 08:22 |
| theantix | d-b, I have to admit that I'm with you on that one :-) | 08:23 |
| theantix | I can't wait for coaster to be finished, then I can finally use exclusively gtk2 apps | 08:24 |
| d-b | OH MY GOD! It is Slick. | 08:25 |
| punkass | lol | 08:25 |
| theantix | sometimes totem-xine doesn't work for me on the first try and I have to restart the app, not sure why that is... but otherwise it is brilliant | 08:26 |
| d-b | Come to think of it. This was made by Real. And they prodocued something slick again!? | 08:26 |
| theantix | d-b, oh that, heh | 08:26 |
| punkass | theantix: is there a new version of coaster coming out? | 08:27 |

| punkass | gaim should use it too | 08:28 |
| eniac | you know what I find strange is that ubuntu chooses python and not mono | 08:28 |
| punkass | i am undecided about mono still | 08:29 |
| theantix | eniac, mark shuttleworth has been a python booster for a while now -- I'm not saying that is the only reason but I'm sure it was an influence | 08:29 |
| tck_ | rhythmbox r0x | 08:29 |
| pepsi | whats it for? | 08:29 |
| punkass | not sure why...maybe its the dll thing | 08:29 |
| pepsi | .net stuff? | 08:29 |
| punkass | yup | 08:29 |
| pepsi | why would you want that? :P | 08:29 |
| theantix | [insert flamewar here] | 08:29 |

| === tck_ is now known as tck | ||
| punkass | well c# is an official standard language now (i think) | 08:30 |
| pepsi | but what did ubuntu choose not to use mono for? | 08:30 |

| d-b | Hmm. Sabagay... Python's kinda sexy | 08:33 |
| punkass | i used python a bit awhile ago..and it kinda made me crazy..but i started again and i am startin to like it | 08:34 |
| Lathiat | punkass: i love python :) | 08:34 |
| Lathiat | tho, when perl6 arrives, i might be sold... the syntax is still a bit icky sometimes but it has some uber cool stuff | 08:34 |

| d-b | My mind is too primitive to learn perl. | 08:35 |
| punkass | theantix: have u tried compiling coaster? | 08:36 |
| theantix | Lathiat, not trying to pick on you, just being silly. :-) perl is a great tool for a lot of tasks | 08:36 |
| Lathiat | bborkk: it has all these evil cool things like | 08:36 |
| theantix | punkass, no I've not tried | 08:36 |
| Lathiat | variables that are anything but something | 08:36 |
| Lathiat | like an integer variable that is anything but the number 6 | 08:36 |
| bborkk | That's pretty cool. What happens if you assign 6 to it? | 08:36 |
| punkass | what blows my mind is the amount of programming/scripting languages out there | 08:36 |
| Lathiat | which makes comparisons nice and simple and stuff and umm | 08:36 |
| Lathiat | bborkk: it fails | 08:37 |
| Lathiat | bborkk: like trying to assign an integer to a string | 08:37 |

| Treenaks | Smeven: uh.. | 09:36 |
| Treenaks | Smeven: gstreamer can do that | 09:36 |
| Smeven | Treenaks: ? | 09:36 |
| Smeven | Treenaks: dvd9 to dvd5? | 09:36 |
| Treenaks | Smeven: don't know about that, but it can do dvd -> ogg theora+vorbis | 09:37 |
| Smeven | it can requantize and all? | 09:37 |
| Treenaks | so it should be possible | 09:37 |
| Smeven | Treenaks: i want to requantize the dvd, just dvd to dvd copy | 09:37 |
| punkass | Smeven: as in perfect backup? | 09:37 |
| Smeven | punkass: basically | 09:37 |
| punkass | cool, that be nice...i have to switch to windows right now and use dvdshrink | 09:38 |
| Lathiat | Smeven: If its a movie DVD it proabbly wont work unless you have a dual layer burner | 09:38 |
| Lathiat | punkass: ah yeh heh | 09:38 |
| Lathiat | dvdshrink is the shit | 09:38 |
| punkass | yeah its pretty slick | 09:38 |
| Lathiat | but i dont use windows so | 09:38 |
| Smeven | Lathiat: that is why you have to requatize the dvd | 09:38 |
| Lathiat | used it before tho | 09:38 |
| Smeven | requantize* | 09:38 |
| Smeven | Lathiat: that is where transcode comes in handy | 09:38 |
| punkass | maybe dvdshrink under wine :) | 09:38 |
| mmorriso | what does requantizing involve? | 09:39 |
| Smeven | if you have a dvd that is 7gigs and you want it on a 4.7 gig disc | 09:39 |
| Smeven | requantizing the dvd will make it fit on that 4.7 gig dvd | 09:39 |
| mmorriso | yeah i know, but how does it work? what does it remove? | 09:39 |
| Smeven | quality | 09:40 |
| mmorriso | ah ok | 09:40 |
| mmorriso | thaNKS | 09:40 |
| Smeven | but it is not noticable | 09:40 |
| Smeven | also, you can remove subtitles, extras, menus, and additional languages to save on quality | 09:40 |
| Smeven | as soon as i drop out a new release of what i am working on now | 09:41 |
| Smeven | I may start toying around with libcoaster/libburn and transcode | 09:41 |
| Smeven | possibly even gstreamer | 09:41 |
| punkass | well something like that sure would be nice | 09:42 |
| Smeven | i will see if gstreamer can handle requantizing a dvd | 09:42 |
| mmorriso | man requantizing is a cool word | 09:42 |
| Smeven | lol | 09:42 |
| punkass | haha | 09:42 |
| Treenaks | mmorriso: so cool you could say it all day? | 09:42 |
| mmorriso | i'm thinking of unnoticable ways to work it into everyday conversation even as i type | 09:43 |
| Smeven | nice | 09:43 |
| Smeven | this thing finally compiles :)\ | 09:43 |

| Robe | whom should I contact to get a new server added to the list of mirrors? | 09:51 |
| Smeven | anotawah nihongoga wakatimassen | 09:51 |
| Smeven | something like that | 09:51 |
| punkass | Robe: im totally sure but i would imagine jdub could point u in the right direction | 09:51 |
| punkass | not totally sure* | 09:51 |
| mmorriso | Robe: not sure, I was thinking the same thing, I noticed mirror.pacific.net.au is up but isn't listed either | 09:52 |

| Smeven | Lathiat: eh, anjuta doesnt handle more than one target, ie. multiple binaries or libs | 09:54 |
| Lathiat | Smeven: too bad then :) | 09:54 |
| Lathiat | patch it :) | 09:55 |
| Lathiat | i just use vim | 09:55 |
| Lathiat | and autotools | 09:55 |
| |trey| | Lathiat: I thought about being a mirror... not a big enough hd though :( I'm on the pacific, Cable... decent connection, but not enough room :/ | 09:55 |
| Lathiat | Smeven: actually themultiple target thing would just be an autoconf setup thing | 09:55 |
| Smeven | i just use jed and autotools | 09:55 |
| Lathiat | not anjuta as such | 09:55 |
| suheimi | Guys, another bootup error: "VFS:Can't find ext3/ext2 filesystem on dev hda4." My filesystem is ReiserFS | 09:55 |

| Smeven | Lathiat: my tower is beggan for ubuntu | 10:00 |
| |trey| | Smeven: can't just do hardware raid? | 10:00 |
| Lathiat | Smeven: it has raid support on boot etc | 10:00 |
| Smeven | not the way im doing it | 10:00 |
| Lathiat | so dunno why the installer doesnt *shrug* | 10:00 |
| |trey| | Smeven: you mean beggin? else you lost me :( | 10:01 |

| Smeven | |trey|: it runs nicely | 10:08 |
| Smeven | compiles fast | 10:08 |
| |trey| | Ok... so you can't set that up with your BIOS? | 10:08 |
| Smeven | but i am just sick of compiling | 10:09 |
| jacob | Dunno how to rebuild the menues though... | 10:09 |
| Smeven | |trey|: dont want to | 10:09 |
| Mithrandir | jacob: that's for the debian menu system, which ubuntu isn't using. | 10:09 |
| |trey| | Smeven: why? then you don't have to keep doing it through all installs.... | 10:09 |
| punkass | Treenaks: nah unreal works good on linux..but with dual monitors it runs dead center | 10:09 |
| Smeven | |trey|: plus the way i have it setup, it wont work | 10:09 |
| Smeven | |trey|: no i dont | 10:09 |
| jacob | Mithrandir, ah ok | 10:09 |
| Treenaks | punkass: then report that to the people who made it.. | 10:09 |
| Mithrandir | jacob: it should probably be added, though. | 10:09 |
| theantix | Treenaks, I'm not sure what you mean, but it's handy for changing some video settings I don't know how to change otherwise | 10:09 |

| staticactivity | <topyli> ok, i'll try that, thanks | 10:54 |
| topyli | tzsetup probably | 10:54 |
| theantix | baietas, I think it has to do with this: https://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1676 | 10:56 |

| bitserf | ide-disk & piix are loaded, what else needs loading? | 11:42 |

| Mithrandir | joolz: warty is releasing very soon, though, and after that, you'll just get security fixes. | 11:49 |
| Mithrandir | (unless you go for hoary, but I think that'll be a bit bumpy in the beginning. :) | 11:49 |
| joolz | Mithrandir: tx. will a reinstall be needed to go from warty to hoary, or wil apt do the trick? | 11:51 |

| iainm | what does "unsupported" mean in the context of ubuntu's universe repo? Does it just mean "we won't help you with this package", or does it mean "if you install this package we don't want anything to do with you" | 11:57 |
| joolz | imo a very bad idea | 11:57 |
| iainm | I suspect it's the former, but I'd like to be sure :) | 11:57 |

| Lathiat | whats in the multiverse stuff | 11:58 |

| Mithrandir | iainm: it means we just provide updates on a best-effort-basis and that we might remove stuff from universe without telling anybody. It only applies to the universe packages themselves. | 11:59 |
| Mithrandir | Lathiat: non-free and contrib from Debian, basically. | 11:59 |

| Mithrandir | it's in universe. | 12:49 |
| Iorek | and the mistake has nothing to do with English as my second language, just me being an airhead | 12:49 |
| Lathiat | Iorek: :) | 12:49 |
| Iorek | yeah, but I'm afraid of universe | 12:49 |
| Iorek | it's too big | 12:49 |

| Lathiat | Mithrandir: whats in multiverse anyway.... | 12:50 |
| nate | when does multiverse come online? | 12:50 |
| Mithrandir | Lathiat: non-free + contrib from debian | 12:51 |
| Lathiat | ahh | 12:51 |
| nate | that package is not dead which can eternal lie unmaintained | 12:51 |
| Lathiat | Mithrandir: is it dangerous to add? :) | 12:51 |
| Iorek | I love gnome, I just think some KDE apps are definitely better than their gnome counterparts :/ | 12:51 |
| Lathiat | like is it gonna remove my xfree86 or something :) | 12:51 |
| Lathiat | Iorek: yeh ive only come accross 1but that happens | 12:52 |
| Lathiat | im sure some gnome apps are more polished than some kde ones | 12:52 |
| Iorek | K3B en juk come to mind | 12:52 |

| Mithrandir | Lathiat: it's not dangerous to add, no, packages therein have no guarantees, like universe. | 12:52 |

| Iorek | but your disk drive may start cussing at you | 12:52 |

| nate | I just added the Flash plugin from contrib. Was that universe or multiverse? | 12:53 |

| DXT | i followed this: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto for my R9800P, i restared and when i try to set a resolution i get this error: | 01:39 |
| DXT | The X server does not support the XRandR extension. Runtime resolution changes to the display size are not available | 01:39 |
| daniels | right | 01:39 |
| daniels | that's because the ATI binary driver doesn't support on-the-fly resolution changes | 01:39 |
| DXT | you see, 1600x1200 is not too healthy for me :| | 01:39 |
| DXT | so how do i change it? | 01:40 |
| plovs_work | SteveA, that worked! nice! why did it work? what is XUL.mfasl? | 01:40 |
| daniels | edit /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 | 01:40 |
| DXT | be more specific | 01:40 |
| DXT | what to change there? | 01:40 |
| DXT | plus tuxracer looks like it's on drugs but that's another issue :P | 01:41 |
| SteveA | plovs_work: XUL.mfasl is a bunch of cached "compiled" XUL. It makes the application start-up faster. | 01:41 |
| SteveA | plovs_work: but, if it is inconsistent with what the XUL should be, it causes problems. | 01:42 |
| DXT | so how do i change the resolution ? :\ | 01:42 |
| plovs_work | SteveA, thanks | 01:42 |
| SteveA | I think the "cached XUL" feature has been turned off for the latest ubuntu builds | 01:42 |
| SteveA | it is just too flaky | 01:43 |
| Iorek | tuxracer ALWAYS looks like that...:P | 01:43 |
| DXT | is there an APTable java runtime enviroment package? | 01:43 |
| plovs_work | SteveA, it should remove the file on a first run after an update anyway | 01:43 |

| MyKq3 | can i fix this ? | 04:35 |
| Kamion | azeem: adding an epoch would have made it gratuitously difficult for people to "upgrade" back to Debian | 04:35 |
| azeem | oh, right | 04:36 |
| Kamion | azeem: we use "ubuntu" suffixes on version numbers rather than pretending we own the whole namespace for pretty much the same reason | 04:36 |
| azeem | that part I know of (being used to +hurd.1) | 04:36 |
| Tzalidar | can i upgrade between releases by doing "apt-get dist-upgrade"? | 04:36 |
| jacob | How does the updating of ubuntu really work practically? Should I update/upgrade in Aptitude once a day or so, and that way be able to stay updated to the current version of Ubuntu forever ? | 04:38 |
| jacob | Or do I ever have to download a new ISO and burn/isntall it ? | 04:39 |
| phosphorgreen | any1 any idea why k3b would see my cdrw drive as root, but not as my usual user? | 04:39 |
| phosphorgreen | k3b sees the drive, just thinks its a cdrom not a cdrw | 04:40 |
| Tzalidar | jacob, since ubuntu uses apt, all you need to do is update it either via synaptic or by"apt-get update && apt-get upgrade" | 04:40 |
| jacob | phosphorgreen, I believe its because some restrictions in the recent 2.6 kernels | 04:40 |
| Tzalidar | phosphorgreen: as jacob said :) | 04:40 |
| phosphorgreen | jacob: any way around it? I'd rather not log in as root every time i want to cdrw | 04:41 |
| phosphorgreen | especially as there are other users that want to use cdrw | 04:41 |
| jacob | Tzalidar, ok, so you always follow the main ubuntu repository? I come from Fedora Core, which has specific repos for the different version, thats why I'm asking | 04:41 |
| === l0gistic [~c30722c3@ns.lost-in-cyberspace.net] has left #ubuntu [] | ||

| phosphorgreen | i've tried gcombust and gtoaster but they dont seem to work either, i didnt have all these issues with my last setup | 04:45 |
| phosphorgreen | it seems to be because cdrecord -scanbus wont work, because there is no ide-scsi any more | 04:45 |

| lpp | how i use it? | 06:35 |
| thisfred | I think you could try just adding that line to your /etc/apt/sources.list but that *may* screw your ubuntu up royally, as debian and ubuntu sources are not the same. Mostly works for me though, but if it doesn't you're pretty much on your own, so it's your gamble ;) | 06:37 |

| === joolz_ [~joolz@kiar.xs4all.nl] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| lpp | topyli i think its a new bug | 06:51 |
| topyli | lpp: i just grabbed java and some multimedia packages, then commented out the repositories | 06:51 |
| lpp | i did apt-get install apollon | 06:51 |
| lpp | so apt installed kde also | 06:51 |
| lpp | and gIFT | 06:51 |
| lpp | i did reboot | 06:51 |
| lpp | and bamn no linux | 06:51 |
| pebkac | erm. | 06:52 |
| pebkac | no linux or no graphical login? | 06:52 |
| spiritz | I got the ipw2200 driver from the ipw2200, I installed it with "make", then I downloaded the firmware, copy the files to the hotplug dir... I loaded the module, everything seems to be ok, I set the /etc/network/interface.... Then I think I'm done, thus I type ifup eth1, but it doesn't work, I got no answer to my dhcpdiscover... | 06:52 |
| pebkac | because you have to swap out GDM for KDM. | 06:52 |
| pebkac | there is a command and i forgot it. | 06:52 |
| topyli | lpp: apollon seems to be there on the ubuntu servers... did you use that one or a third party package? | 06:52 |
| topyli | anyway it shouldn't break the whole system | 06:53 |
| lpp | i just did apt-get install apollon | 06:53 |
| spiritz | I dont know what else to do :( | 06:53 |
| pebkac | i am running sneakernet. my poor pc at home is disconnect at the moment, so i am apt'ing with cds! | 06:53 |
| pebkac | i should get an award for dedication. or stupidity. maybe both? | 06:53 |
| Treenaks | spiritz: you don't have to do that | 06:53 |
| Treenaks | spiritz: the IPW2200 driver is included in the Ubuntu stock kernels | 06:54 |
| lpp | topyli you got msn ? | 06:54 |
| gnomy | on booting ubuntu i get the following error message "modprobe: FATAL: Error inserting pciehp /lib/modules/2.6.8.1-3-386/kernel/drivers/pci/hotplug/pciehp.ko Operation not permitted" is that normal???? | 06:54 |
| topyli | lpp: yes | 06:54 |
| Kamion | gnomy: don't think it's anything to worry about | 06:54 |
| spiritz | Treenaks, oh!! How do I go back? | 06:54 |
| Treenaks | spiritz: did you make install? | 06:54 |
| pebkac | does the daily of ubuntu include rcconf? | 06:54 |
| pebkac | or do i need to download it? | 06:54 |
| Treenaks | pebkac: man update-rc.d | 06:55 |
| Kamion | rcconf is not in warty, only in universe | 06:55 |
| pebkac | i know, but update-rc.d is so very... clunky. | 06:55 |
| pebkac | not friendly at all, like the rest of ubuntu | 06:55 |
| spiritz | Treenaks, with the ipw2200 driver ? no I just typed "make" | 06:55 |
| Treenaks | pebkac: you shouldn't need to use it anyway | 06:55 |
| Treenaks | spiritz: ok, then it's easy :) just remove the directory | 06:55 |
| pebkac | i do not need half the services that load, and i have a P3 933. | 06:55 |
| pebkac | not much overhead for 22 services. | 06:55 |
| Treenaks | spiritz: and if you have an ipw2200, the driver should have loaded automatically | 06:56 |
| Kamion | pebkac: we'll hopefully have a GNOMEish thing for hoary | 06:56 |
| Treenaks | spiritz: (you can check with dmesg) | 06:56 |
| spiritz | Treenaks, ok, I removed the dir, let me check dmesg | 06:56 |
| pebkac | that would be nice. vidalinux uses some GTK front end for services, you might like it. | 06:56 |
| pebkac | very simple, elegant. | 06:56 |
| spiritz | do I need to do rmmod ipw2200? since I typed modprob ipw2200 | 06:56 |
| Treenaks | spiritz: uh.. so you DID do make install ? | 06:57 |
| Treenaks | (modules got installed?) | 06:57 |
| topyli | pebkac: it may be one of the gnome-system-tools they left out of 2.8 | 06:57 |
| spiritz | well, indeed all I typed was make then modprob :) | 06:57 |
| spiritz | I guess I did the instlalation | 06:57 |
| Treenaks | spiritz: only if you 'make install' you install.. | 06:57 |
| spiritz | ok then I did not install :) | 06:58 |
| spiritz | lol | 06:58 |

| RedMenace | the java development kit | 09:55 |

| jacob | Which one of PCM and Volume are you _not_ supposed to max, in order to get non-disted sound? (sorry, a bit offtopic I know) | 09:59 |

| asdf_ | maybe its included in that package? | 10:05 |
| joolz | smo: ok... but what is the default system default? :) | 10:05 |
| [rapha] | Thanks asdf_. For Slackware it is not, but maybe for Debian; I'll just try. | 10:06 |
| duane | alsactl dosent seem to know about any cards | 10:06 |
| [rapha] | Btw, this is a bug: wvdial should be included with Ubuntu since it is used by GNOME's network-admin. | 10:07 |

| === leech [~leech@205.208.213.187] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| aardvark | well thats just the point, a discussion based on fact is needed | 11:39 |
| spiv | i.e. neither of them is a robust solution for solving world hunger ;) | 11:39 |
| aardvark | sure, but thats not the issue at hand | 11:40 |
| spiv | Right, but what is? :) | 11:40 |
| spiv | Are you just talking about "average" FS use, or some specific workload/configuration? | 11:40 |

| spiv | (Not that I'm qualified to answer, but I suspect it matters) | 11:40 |
| tweak | hey i have a question on a problem i just got. | 11:41 |
| aardvark | a high availabilty database server | 11:41 |
| aardvark | availability | 11:41 |
| tweak | if someone can help me | 11:41 |
| aardvark | tweak: we could try | 11:42 |
| spiv | aardvark: I'm no expert, but two points spring to my mind: | 11:43 |
| tweak | when i boot in it is fine untell i hit the splash screen then it slows way down | 11:43 |
| jdub | aardvark: for a database server, the file system essentially doesn't matter | 11:43 |
| aardvark | spiv: please proceed | 11:43 |
| DXT|away | [23:36] <imka> DXT edit /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 | 11:43 |
| tweak | and that just happen today | 11:43 |
| DXT|away | what exacly | 11:43 |
| DXT|away | :| | 11:43 |
| jdub | aardvark: meanwhile, reiserfs is not regarded as 'more robust' than ext3 anyway :) | 11:43 |
| === DXT|away is now known as DXT | ||
| spiv | aardvark: ext3 is probably run by many more people, so I strongly suspect it's more heavily tested... especially in DB environments where people are likely to be conservative in their technology choices. | 11:44 |
| tweak | then when i hit ctrl+alt+F1 | 11:44 |
| === TongMaster [~TongMaste@home.waugh.id.au] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| tweak | the hit the buttons to come back in it is blured | 11:44 |
| goatboy_ | DXT: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86; you can select resolutions there. | 11:44 |
| tweak | what should i set it to | 11:44 |
| aardvark | jdub: it appears to be so in terms of being a fast journalling FS | 11:44 |
| spiv | aardvark: Also, ext3 has a feature where it can journal data as well as metadata, which reiser (I belive) doesn't have. It hurts performance a lot, though... | 11:44 |
| DXT | thanks i shall try that | 11:44 |
| jdub | aardvark: not really. | 11:45 |
| DXT | just need to write it down when i boot into linux :X | 11:45 |
| Kamion | aardvark: fast != robust | 11:45 |
| aardvark | jdup: according to benchmarks it appears so | 11:45 |

| aardvark | that I know, I am looking for a good all round performer | 11:46 |
| Kamion | aardvark: for databases it's often not incredibly relevant what the underlying filesystem is; take Oracle which just does raw disk access - most databases try to avoid depending on the filesystem too much | 11:46 |
| tweak | can some help me or not | 11:46 |
| jdub | aardvark: reiserfs is good for "lots of small, junk files" situations, such as if you're running a big squid install | 11:46 |
| aardvark | Kamion: yes Oracle I know does, however I am looking at a PostgreSQL implementation that would feature heavy row insertions and deletes | 11:47 |
| DXT | big squid? | 11:47 |
| tweak | Can someone please help | 11:47 |
| linux_mafia | DXT, squid cache server | 11:48 |
| aardvark | Kamion: ORACLE is major $$$ | 11:48 |
| jdub | aardvark: *every* database server routes around the filesystem as much as it can | 11:48 |
| DXT | k :) | 11:48 |
| jdub | aardvark: any situation where you have massive great big files managed by another process indicates that the filesystem is not an interesting factor :) | 11:48 |
| tseng | tweak: the idea is, you just ask your question, and hope someone knows the answer. no use asking to ask, or constantly repeating yourself | 11:49 |
| linux_mafia | so just out of curiosity, you think SUSE made reiser the default, just because hans reiser is a fellow german? ;) | 11:49 |
| aardvark | jdub: but rememember the time it takes the FS to deal with each read/write will still directly affect the eventual throughput | 11:49 |
| Kamion | aardvark: Oracle was just an obvious example, and as jdub says | 11:50 |
| tseng | suse has a reiser hacker on staff | 11:50 |
| linux_mafia | oh | 11:50 |
| linux_mafia | heh | 11:50 |
| Kamion | it's not exactly unknown for SuSE to go for fairly locally-developed technologies anyway, and fairly understandable ... | 11:51 |
| aardvark | guys I am not trying to argue it's just I have read publisged benchamarks on Reiser4 and it seems impressive | 11:51 |
| aardvark | published | 11:51 |
| dieman | mmm | 11:51 |
| dieman | more bleeding edge hw | 11:51 |
| dieman | Kamion: ive got another lspci to send you | 11:51 |

| linux_mafia | namesys does not reccomend it for use with anything important/critical | 11:52 |
| vrln | anyone managed to get fluxbox-cvs working on ubuntu? It compiles and installs fine but fonts aren't being rendered at all | 11:53 |
| aardvark | another question | 11:54 |
| === t35t0r [~t35t0r@cookeville-24-158-166-127.midtn.chartertn.net] has left #ubuntu ["Leaving"] | ||

| aardvark | every 3, 6 months or when its ready ? | 11:55 |
| smo | aardvark: 6 months, to closely match Gnome's | 11:55 |
| tritium | jdub can you put the evolution-exchange .deb packages jbailey built for standard debian in your repository? it keeps failing to get into incoming | 11:55 |

| aardvark | how does one get involved helping out the project ? | 11:56 |
| imka | aardvark there's info on the website | 11:57 |
| jdub | tritium: jbailey has been uploading my packages | 11:57 |
| jdub | tritium: #g-d instead :) | 11:57 |
