| pedro_g | that will rewrite you file - at least you'll know it's not something simple that's causing the problem | 12:20 |

| bob2 | no | 02:24 |
| bob2 | winex is a proprietary fork that includes support for directx | 02:24 |

| bob2 | jazzka: it chooses the one with the highest version | 02:44 |
| swim | aitrus, I can use it with a windows machine... so the printer itself is setup | 02:44 |
| bob2 | jazzka: if two have the same version it picks the one fro mthe first source in the sources.list | 02:44 |
| aitrus | assuming it is setup, you can add an IPP printer (if that's what it uses, and probably does) with the printer config/network printer | 02:44 |
| bob2 | jazzka: but you shouldn't be using stable or testing with ubuntu | 02:44 |
| aitrus | swim: does it use IPP or SMB in windows? | 02:45 |
| swim | aitrus, I just told windows to use the ip address that the printer gave itself... | 02:45 |
| swim | not sure | 02:45 |
| aitrus | there's no magical "just use this ip address" box, so somewhere along the line you had to say either ipp or smb | 02:46 |
| aitrus | you can find out by going into window, right-clicking on the printer, and going to properties | 02:46 |
| swim | aitrus, sorry I didnt tell it either... ok just a sec | 02:46 |

| aitrus | it's an old version anyway | 03:22 |
| bob2 | yes | 03:23 |
| aitrus | rock | 03:23 |
| aitrus | i did that, and then got the firefox downgrade and wondered if i fubar'd something | 03:23 |
| bob2 | hah, jeffitis is infesting the ubuntu world | 03:23 |
| bob2 | the downgrade was a special case and will only happen rarely | 03:23 |
| daniels | bob2: one of my friends is saying 'rad' | 03:23 |
| bob2 | be worried it if turns to k-rad. | 03:24 |
| aitrus | is there any cross-posting between ubuntu-announce and ubuntu-security-announce? | 03:24 |
| bob2 | based on how debian works, I doubt it | 03:24 |
| cfactor | how big is the ubuntu package list compared to debian? My main worry is the lack of packages. | 03:25 |
| bob2 | cfactor: supported is ~1500, universe is nearly everything else from sid | 03:25 |
| robertj | and what is there is rather good | 03:25 |
| bob2 | some stuff is missing from universe because it had buidl problems or whatever...if someone fixes them, they can be added too | 03:26 |

| bob2 | cfactor: yes. | 03:28 |
| bob2 | cfactor: note that the ubuntu kernel sources support far far far far more hardware than kernel.org ones | 03:28 |
| cfactor | Okay, then here's the hard question. Anyone here running ubuntu on a transmeta cpu? | 03:29 |
| swim | aitrus, so what would a URI be? | 03:29 |
| tacoma | I've only had to go outside ubuntu for my webcam(spca5xx), ATI AIW(gatos), and xawtv | 03:29 |
| swim | aitrus, or for that matter, what would a SBM number or whatever look like? | 03:30 |
| cfactor | debian's XFree86 deb package has a transmeta specific bug that forces me to reboot every day or two. | 03:30 |
| bob2 | it's a bug in the cpu, not in X | 03:31 |
| aitrus | swim: i can't help you if you don't know what your printer uses, sorry. from what you have told me, your printer is not using SMB. so it's either IPP or LPR | 03:31 |
| cfactor | maybe. I don't know the exact nature of it. But I've been told some combination of XFree compile option fixes it. | 03:31 |
| aitrus | swim: if there is some sort of config interface for your printer (like a web interface) that would help [you] a lot | 03:32 |
| swim | aitrus, ok so if it were LPR what number or name... would I be looking for? | 03:33 |
| cfactor | and I never had the problem until I put debian on it. | 03:33 |
| tacoma | swimL my HP Jetdirect has a telnet config menu, maybe your printer does to | 03:35 |
| swim | gotta run thanks aitrus, Ill bb tomorrow | 03:35 |

| GOwin | what's the difference between "mark for removal" and "mark for complete removal" from synaptics? | 04:04 |
| smo | hartbrkr: you'll probably want linux-image-2.6.8.1-3-386 to match then. sounds like the kernel's been upgraded since, and hasn't been upgraded on your machine | 04:05 |
| aitrus | complete removal removes old config stuff as well | 04:05 |
| hartbrkr | smo: so in synaptic i can just install linux-headers-2.6.8.1-3-386 and install linux-image-2.6.8.1-3-386 and that's all I'll have to do? or would I have to mess around with GRUB to get the kernel working? | 04:06 |

| bob2 | bittornado | 04:13 |
| joem | the stock client and bittornado are in universe | 04:13 |
| bob2 | bittorrent | 04:13 |
| tck | cool :) | 04:13 |
| tck | whats the name of that popular java one | 04:13 |
| bob2 | azuerus | 04:13 |
| tck | azereus ? | 04:13 |
| tck | yeah thats it | 04:13 |
| bob2 | it requires non-free java, sadly | 04:13 |
| tck | :/ | 04:13 |
| joem | there is no advantage to using it afaik | 04:14 |
| neuro_ | itym azureus | 04:14 |
| neuro_ | tis very nice | 04:14 |
| neuro_ | waffer-theen | 04:14 |
| tck | im trying to find the ubuntu wallpapers stuck up on kde-look.org | 04:14 |
| joem | whats it do that other clients don't? | 04:14 |
| tck | joem, just supposed to be slick | 04:14 |
| tacoma | I really like azureus, it gives you very fine control | 04:14 |
| neuro_ | tis very configurable and easy to use | 04:14 |
| bob2 | use tens of megabytes of ram and all your cpu | 04:14 |
| aitrus | bittornado replaces bittorrent? (package wise) | 04:15 |
| joem | what does it do that bittornado doesn't? | 04:15 |
| neuro_ | bob2: so does firefox - what's new? | 04:15 |
| bob2 | yes | 04:15 |
| tacoma | but I've never used bittornado | 04:15 |
| bob2 | neuro_: with webpages, you care how they look. downloading torrents are just small graphs that move over until they say 100%. | 04:15 |
| neuro_ | bob2: strange how it hasn't chewed cpu on my machine then | 04:15 |
| tacoma | azureus lets you prioritize torents, both when downloading and uploading | 04:16 |
| neuro_ | using loads of ram i can understand, as it may be tasked to track hundreds if not thousands of active connections | 04:16 |
| hartbrkr | tck: I didn't see any update for grub .. is it in synaptic? | 04:16 |
| tacoma | azureus lets you adjust settings on when to starve other peers | 04:16 |
| tck | apt-get install grub | 04:16 |
| joem | bittornado does all of that | 04:17 |

| Se7h | one question a bit OT | 04:19 |
| hartbrkr | thanks | 04:19 |
| Se7h | does reiserFS works fine on 2.8 kernel ? | 04:19 |
| joem | dunno, there is no 2.8 kernel | 04:20 |
| Se7h | dam | 04:20 |
| Se7h | 2.6 | 04:20 |
| Se7h | lol | 04:20 |
| joem | works the same as reiser on other kernels | 04:20 |
| joem | which isn't really a positive comment.. | 04:21 |
| Se7h | hmmm | 04:21 |
| bob2 | ubuntu does not include reiser4 support, if that's what you're asking. | 04:21 |
| Se7h | ok a simpler Q | 04:21 |
| Se7h | bob2 no ? | 04:22 |
| joem | no distros include reiser4 support afaik | 04:22 |
| bob2 | it's still pre-pre-alpha | 04:22 |
| aitrus | bob2: i think Yoper does if you can call that a distro =) | 04:23 |
| Se7h | gentoo does to | 04:23 |
| bob2 | I should go find out wtf yopper is | 04:23 |
| joem | gentoo doesn't | 04:23 |
| aitrus | bob2: don't bother | 04:23 |
| bob2 | people keep going on and on about it | 04:23 |
| aitrus | i don't like it | 04:23 |
| Se7h | joem oh it does | 04:23 |
| Se7h | its on the manual | 04:24 |
| Se7h | go read it | 04:24 |
| Se7h | lol | 04:24 |
| aitrus | to me, it seems like a distro that tried to take a bunch of good stuff from other distros, but failed | 04:24 |
| tacoma | I use Reiser on my gentoo media server | 04:24 |
| Se7h | see... | 04:24 |
| joem | Se7h, it contains ebuilds for -mm that have reiser4 options, but none of the devs will support it | 04:24 |
| tacoma | I have used it to good effect | 04:24 |
| aitrus | but i guess that's an opinion for a different channel... =) | 04:24 |
| joem | but you can feel free to ask in #gentoo about that | 04:24 |

| pedro_g | darn - i'm going to have to stop being so lazy | 05:01 |
| pedro_g | gowin if root owns the file root has to change the permisions | 05:01 |
| joem | heh, yes you are | 05:01 |
| pedro_g | nautilus only has your permissions | 05:02 |

| clee | can anyone explain why I'm seeing this from cdrecord? | 06:59 |
| clee | cdrecord: Warning: controller returns wrong size for CD capabilities page. | 06:59 |
| clee | I see that message, and cdrecord picks the scsi2_cd driver instead of the mmc_cdr driver for my drive | 07:00 |
| clee | which makes cdrecording fail completely | 07:00 |
| daniels | driver=mmc_cdr doesn't help any? | 07:00 |
| clee | nope. | 07:00 |
| clee | tried that. | 07:00 |

| clee | cdrecord: Warning: controller returns wrong size for CD capabilities page. | 07:00 |
| clee | cdrecord: Sorry, no CD/DVD-Recorder or unsupported CD/DVD-Recorder found on this target. | 07:00 |
| clee | Using generic SCSI-2 CD-ROM driver (scsi2_cd). | 07:00 |
| clee | if I change to force it to use mmc_cdr, I get... | 07:01 |

| clee | cdrecord: WARNING: Trying to use other driver on known device. | 07:01 |
| clee | cdrecord: Cannot attach driver for CD/DVD-Recorder. | 07:01 |
| clee | (I just burned a CD on this drive the other night, so unless someone swapped out my hardware while I wasn't looking, I'm fairly certain that cdrecord is mistaken.) | 07:02 |
| kaplanfx | clee: did you burn it on another install? | 07:02 |
| kaplanfx | becuase burning is broken in kernel 2.6.8 | 07:03 |
| kaplanfx | which is the default in ubuntu right no iirc | 07:03 |
| clee | kaplanfx: yeah, I did it with a 2.6.7 kernel IIRC | 07:03 |
| joem | I have burned cds with 2.8 | 07:03 |
| clee | kaplanfx: the weird thing is that I can burn CD-Rs just fine from my laptop, also running ubuntu | 07:03 |
| kaplanfx | it will not detect your burner as cd-r capable | 07:03 |
| kaplanfx | joem: cd-rw? | 07:03 |
| joem | haven't tried cd-rw | 07:04 |
| joem | don't know if I have any laying around | 07:04 |
| kaplanfx | well cd burning is definately broken | 07:04 |
| clee | my laptop works fine with 2.6.8.1-2-386 and its DVD-ROM/CD-R drive | 07:05 |
| kaplanfx | werid | 07:05 |
| joem | I don't know about rw, but like I said, I have burned cds fine here with 2.6.8 | 07:05 |
| Pariente | bob2: now what can i do??? | 07:06 |
| joem | so cd burning isn't broken..I'm sure there would have been many more reports, as ubuntu ships with 2.6.8 | 07:06 |
| kaplanfx | The very important GET CONFIGURATION MMC command is rejected by the kernel for reasons I cannot see and writing commands like MODE SELECT also fail (K3b cannot detect CD writers without it) even when the device is opened O_RDWR | 07:06 |
| kaplanfx | nah it is most certainly broken | 07:07 |

| dkconstant | ok, just tried it again. | 08:29 |
| dkconstant | root@wintermute:/ # mount /dev/hda1 /mnt/ntfs -t ntfs | 08:29 |

| smeggy | dkconstant, you could add it to /etc/fstab if you wanted it to automount every boot. | 08:31 |
| dkconstant | alrighty. that'll probably be my next step. | 08:31 |

| === sepheebear [~sepheebea@24-193-86-118.nyc.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| smeggy | Pretty straightforward. | 08:31 |
| smeggy | Just open /etc/fstab, its fairly obvious. | 08:32 |
| smeggy | essentially, you'll need an entry like: | 08:32 |
| smeggy | this: /dev/hda1 /mnt/ntfs ntfs defaults 0 1 | 08:32 |
| dkconstant | i was just puzzling that bit out. | 08:32 |
| dkconstant | are those columns tab-seperated? | 08:33 |
| crimsun | whitespace-delimited | 08:33 |
| smeggy | As long as ther is some whitespace it doesn't matter. | 08:33 |
| dkconstant | oh, groovy. danke shoen. | 08:33 |
| smeggy | np | 08:34 |
| dkconstant | and since i did all that as root, how do i give myself permissions (vis suid, i suppose) to access /mnt/ntfs via my user account? | 08:35 |
| smeggy | after the default bit in fstab | 08:35 |
| smeggy | add ,user | 08:35 |
| smeggy | no space | 08:36 |
| smeggy | err | 08:36 |
| smeggy | no wait thats wrong sorry | 08:36 |
| smeggy | not 100% sure how actually | 08:36 |
| smeggy | Nice hostname btw ;) | 08:37 |
| dkconstant | and the nautilus text editor won't let me edit fstab, even after being launced from a root terminal. | 08:37 |
| crimsun | dkconstant: need to use a umask parameter | 08:37 |
| dkconstant | i was wondering how many people had read neuromancer... | 08:38 |
| dkconstant | smeggy, danke. | 08:38 |

| cfactor | can't remember if apm takes over with the argument, though. | 09:12 |
| sikkh | cfactor yup but I prefer to have acpi on | 09:12 |
| tiagobugarin | cfactor: unfortunatly it do not gone away... still there.... | 09:12 |
| sikkh | just grep for printk() in acpi code, and comment that out ;) | 09:13 |
| sikkh | sed should do it | 09:13 |
| tiagobugarin | i have to disable acpi because the cpu ubuntu is installed is a very old P1 133MHz with 64mb ram | 09:14 |
| tiagobugarin | sikkh: what???? | 09:14 |
| sikkh | if it's old box apm will suffice | 09:14 |

| paws | iainm: is it OK to add the debian repository to sources.apt? | 09:15 |
| maswan | Kamion: damn, I'm sorry, how can I tag that bug unreproducable by the submitter? | 09:15 |
| cfactor | I don't have a browser installed yet, and I'm doing apt-get install xfree86 right now. but check the bootprompt howto if you haven't. | 09:16 |
| iainm | paws, probably not. You're likely to find that many debian packages get installed in preference to ubuntu packages, so you'd have no idea what's going on. | 09:16 |
| sikkh | btw cfactor, are you by any chance ubuntu dev? | 09:16 |
| cfactor | no, I'm installing ubuntu for the first time tonight. | 09:17 |

| iainm | you probably want to grab the source packages for mpd from debian and rebuild them for ubuntu. | 09:17 |
| sikkh | I'm still pondering to switch mandrake to ubunto on my desktop, mainly becose I'm a big fan of debian | 09:18 |
| attitude | iainm: Is there a place I can read about how to do that | 09:18 |
| Treenaks | sikkh: it's called ubuntu | 09:18 |
| cfactor | sikkh: so you haven't tried out ubuntu yet? | 09:19 |
| iainm | attitude, sorry, I just learned a bit about that stuff through experimentation. | 09:19 |
| attitude | iainm: I do not even know how to get started experimenting | 09:20 |
| paws | iainm: sucks that its manual but what can you do...how do you get the debian package? | 09:20 |
| iainm | basically, you need to grab the original tarball, then get the debianification patch and the description file from a debian mirror, extract the original tarball, patch it with the debianification package, and use fakeroot dpkg-buildpackage | 09:20 |
| paws | attitude: i'm in the same boat, but i'm willing to mess around with it | 09:20 |
| iainm | there may be an easier way, I don't know. | 09:20 |
| iainm | you could also try just downloading the .deb from a debian mirror and installing it, I suppose. | 09:21 |
| iainm | I don't know how broken or otherwise that would be. | 09:21 |
| paws | how do you get only one .deb file from a mirror? | 09:21 |
| cfactor | apt-get has a --download-only option. | 09:22 |
| paws | cfactor: thanks | 09:22 |
| iainm | There are some links at the bottom of http://packages.debian.org/unstable/sound/mpd | 09:22 |

| [Maze] | hello , I am trying to install ubuntu on a dell inspiron 8000, I boot from cd image and the install freezes up | 09:29 |

| willie | mteira: I cant get ubuntu to boot if I haqve _any_ usb devices attached - hangs at the hotplug section -- is this similar to your prob? | 11:20 |
| Kamion | TML: it's a wiki; somebody should probably edit it to say that you need to log out and back in, at most (and probably just to start a new shell) | 11:20 |
| mteira | willie: Yes. | 11:20 |
| mteira | willie: But, after disconnecting a hub I was using, every device seems to work. | 11:20 |
| TML | Kamion: Yeah. I just found it strange advice. | 11:20 |
| willie | but it would continue to boot if you ctrl-C at the point? | 11:20 |
| mteira | willie: Yes. | 11:21 |
| mteira | willie: But the usb stuff doesn't work. | 11:21 |
| liran | Treenaks and Kamion it worked | 11:21 |

| Treenaks | willie: driver | 11:22 |
| willie | all the correct modules seem loaded | 11:22 |
| mteira | willie: But the printer was not plugged via the hub. | 11:22 |
| Treenaks | willie: maybe you're having interrupt problems? (try booting with pci=noacpi) | 11:22 |
| willie | thanks Treenaks - I'll give that a try | 11:23 |

| Randomize | Those were for the benefit of IRC, not in the .bashrc | 12:59 |
| Randomize | Iainm, there's an export PATH line after that, yes. | 12:59 |
| mteira | Randomize: Nothing wrong, then | 01:00 |
| TML | plovs_work: I can't think of any reason you couldn't just dpkg -i foo.deb | 01:00 |
| Randomize | My ./configures keep saying I don't have a valid compiler despite that being in my bashrc. | 01:00 |
| Zindar | plovs_work: put debian unstable deb-src in your sources.list file | 01:00 |
| TML | plovs_work: Of course, you'll have to satisfy all the deps | 01:00 |

| TML | Zindar: "apt-get -b source blah" is nice, too. | 01:01 |

| Kamion | Randomize: /usr/bin will be in $PATH by default anyway | 01:01 |
| Zindar | yeah.. try that | 01:01 |
| Kamion | Randomize: it's more likely you simply don't have a compiler installed | 01:02 |
| Randomize | gcc-3.4 is installed. | 01:02 |
| Randomize | Hence my confusion. :) | 01:02 |
| Kamion | libc6-dev too? | 01:02 |
| Randomize | Yes. | 01:02 |
| TML | Randomize: You need to check config.log to see what, specifically, it says is broken about your compiler | 01:02 |
| Zindar | "apt-get install build-dep package" ? | 01:02 |
| Randomize | TML: It can't FIND the compiler. :) | 01:03 |
| iainm | Randomize, do you have a gcc binary in your path, or only gcc-3.4 | 01:03 |
| TML | Randomize: Are you sure? | 01:03 |
| Kamion | I'd go for gcc, not gcc-3.4 | 01:03 |
| plovs_work | Randomize, did you install build-essential? | 01:03 |
| iainm | or has somebody else already asked that? | 01:03 |
| TML | Randomize: Sometimes, configure is mistaken. | 01:03 |
| Kamion | that being the package that provides the gcc symlink | 01:03 |
| Kamion | if you really MUST have gcc-3.4 for some reason (unlikely), then CC=gcc-3.4 | 01:04 |
| Randomize | Kamion, thank you. build-essential is not installed. | 01:04 |
| Randomize | Well, I'm just trying to work out from what ubuntu appears to give me by default, wasn't fixated on 3.4. | 01:04 |
| Kamion | Ubuntu is compiled with gcc-3.3, but of course we don't install a compiler by default at all | 01:05 |
| Kamion | Warty is, anyway. | 01:05 |
| TML | I always found that odd...no compiler by default. | 01:05 |
| Randomize | This is a mix of user-ignorance (on my part) and lack of sleep, bear with me. :) | 01:05 |
| Kamion | TML: was extensively flam^Wdiscussed before the preview release :-) | 01:06 |
| TML | Kamion: I imagine so. | 01:06 |
| Randomize | The sad thing is I was getting further than this yesterday on a prior install, but I'm so whack-brained from all the changes I've done that it's hard to recall what I might have done differently last time. | 01:07 |

| willie | mteira: guess what - just rebooted into SuSE after giving up in frustration with ubuntu on a couple of the probs you are seeing -- usb not working -- despite trying pci=noacpi and frustration at printing/cups | 02:16 |
| willie | It seems once I get gnome to run iit wont let me do anything that runs as root | 02:17 |
| lupus_ | Kamion, https://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2281 don't you think this is a bug? | 02:17 |
| Treenaks | willie: it will, it just asks for YOUR password (using sudo) not the ROOT password | 02:17 |
| willie | cant get a root terminal -- though a std shell then su + pwd is OK | 02:17 |
| lupus_ | I think it was handled correctly in the past | 02:17 |
| Treenaks | willie: and it's better to solve bugs than to whine about them.. so where are the bug reports about your not being able to use USB? | 02:18 |
| willie | Treenaks: bit of a noob -- Im trying to get morew background so I can submit a coherent bug report | 02:18 |
| Treenaks | willie: dmesg output (or /var/log/kern.log) would help I think | 02:19 |

| sludge | hello everyone! just installed ubuntu, can i ask a few questions? | 04:26 |
| sludge | i'm new to apt-get package system, is there any place else where i can write to update mozilla firefox? | 04:27 |
| sludge | or for example i try apt-get install xmms and it comes up with nothing | 04:27 |
| psi | xmms is probably in the universe repository | 04:28 |
| psi | which you need to enable in /etc/apt/sources.list | 04:28 |
| sludge | i tried apt-get update, and it's doing something here | 04:28 |
| cardador | sludge: just use synaptic to keep your system up to date | 04:29 |
| cardador | sludge: synaptic is an apt-get frontend | 04:29 |
| sludge | alrighty then | 04:30 |
| sludge | give me a few minutes :) | 04:30 |

| eniac | I'm again in trouble debootstrap complains it can find /usr/lib/debootstrap/functions which is normal, since there's no such file, also on the page it says /usr/sbin/debootstrap, but I don't have that ... | 04:32 |
| Kamion | set DEBOOTSTRAP_DIR if you haven't installed debootstrap but are trying to run it out of the source directory | 04:33 |
| eniac | I did | 04:33 |
| Kamion | bet you didn't :) | 04:33 |
| Kamion | maybe you forgot to export it | 04:33 |
| sludge | alright, how about samba? it says support for samba is not installed | 04:34 |
| eniac | Kamion: I did run it from the source dir but didn't set the var :) | 04:34 |
| cardador | sludge: apt-get update is the same as clicking "reload" in synaptic | 04:34 |
| eniac | Kamion: E: No such script: /mnt/ubuntu/debootstrap-0.2.39ubuntu21/scripts/sarge | 04:34 |
| Kamion | there is no scripts directory in the source tarball | 04:35 |
| eniac | idd, | 04:35 |
| Kamion | perhaps you should install the package properly | 04:35 |
| Kamion | e.g. 'make install' | 04:35 |
| eniac | Kamion: impossible ! | 04:36 |
| eniac | I haven't got dpkg | 04:36 |

| Kamion | eniac: 15:16 < Kamion> in general, if you have a problem with the manual, please file a bug. | 04:53 |
| Kamion | :-) | 04:53 |
| Kamion | as it happens I'm working on that chapter at the moment | 04:53 |
| eniac | Kamion: I give up,! if the manual expects you to do things that aren't metiond to make it work then I don't see the point in the manual | 04:54 |
| Kamion | eniac: BTW the manual doesn't talk about installing from source at all | 04:54 |

| sabdfl | daniels: later :-) | 04:55 |
| Kamion | eniac: if you'd done that then you'd have /usr/lib/debootstrap/scripts/ and /usr/sbin/debootstrap; you said earlier that you didn't, though | 04:55 |
| Kamion | 15:17 < Kamion> if you're installing from a non-Debian/Ubuntu system, you don't want either; you want the source. | 04:55 |
| Kamion | that was probably misinformation, though, sorry | 04:55 |
| eniac | but then I did it because you pointed that out for me .. | 04:55 |
| eniac | and still ... | 04:55 |

| |trey| | swoon: anything accessable via a connection of some kind is a node... iPod's, everything. | 05:57 |
| swoon | |trey| I understood that, but what I did did that consist of making a network? or does building a network consist of making some centralized software | 05:57 |

| swoon | and then connecting the nodes to the software | 05:57 |
| |trey| | swoon: a network is basically an ideal that you should be able to be lazy, a network is meant to aid in laziness. | 05:57 |
| |trey| | swoon: I shouldn't have to walk to a scanner to scan something, I shouldn't have to go to a printer other then to pick up what was printed... this is what a network is :) | 05:58 |
| |trey| | swoon: In an ideal world, I should have a secretary to go get it too... thus utter laziness on my part :) | 05:59 |
| swoon | |trey| so does it sound like I built a "network" ? I just connected a sanner/printer/fax machine to a wifi router, and then a laptop wirelessly to the router, and added them as devices in windows... | 05:59 |

| swoon | stupidly easy | 05:59 |

| swoon | well Im yet to get the printer/scanner added to my linux laptop though... | 06:01 |
| |trey| | cups for the printer... sane for the scanner... google for directions :) | 06:01 |
| swoon | hmm ok | 06:02 |
| swoon | how do I know if the windows machine is currently using cups or something else? | 06:04 |
| |trey| | Its using something else enless you told it to use CUPS.. it can use CUPS though... | 06:04 |
| |trey| | (Something else = IPP) | 06:04 |

| mteira | |trey|: But not now. | 06:07 |
| mteira | |trey|: Perhaps the last kernel upgrade | 06:08 |

| mteira | I'm a little desperate. | 06:08 |

| |trey| | (the video confrencing protocols those messaging protocols use) | 06:12 |
| [rapha] | The great thing about SIP is that it works together with the old landline phones | 06:12 |

| highvoltage | hi everyone. where can I take a look at the ubuntu bug list? | 06:13 |
| |trey| | mteira: you get the lock because you don't have root permissions... sudo -s THEN do whatever you were trying to do... | 06:13 |
| mteira | |trey|: No way. You could expect a "permission denied" using the regular user, but not a lock. This is a kernel lock on a system call. I hate it. | 06:13 |
| mteira | |trey|: I disagree | 06:13 |
| |trey| | highvoltage: bugzilla.ubuntu.org | 06:13 |
| highvoltage | trey: thanks | 06:14 |
| mteira | |trey|: I've also tried with root user, the lock is here again. | 06:14 |
| [rapha] | trey: Erm, no. I'm talking about using the internet to phone with friends who do not yet have an internet phone. And that for very cheap prices. | 06:14 |

| highvoltage | nevermind, found it in the meeting room | 06:14 |
| highvoltage | it ends with .com, not .org | 06:15 |
| |trey| | mteira: a user can't access devices or system configuration... this is acceptable to everyone but you and redhat... | 06:15 |

| mteira | |trey|: I think it's a bug. | 06:16 |
| |trey| | mteira: funny... it let me view the file :/ | 06:16 |
| mteira | |trey|: It happens only on some lock situation | 06:17 |
| spiv | mteira: it's an aspect of unix since the beginning of time that you can't kill a process blocked in the D state. :) | 06:17 |
| mteira | spiv: The problem is that process locked. | 06:17 |
| mteira | spiv: And not the fact of not being able to kill it. | 06:17 |
| |trey| | mteira: umm, you were locked out... process stopped when it told you you didn't have permissions. | 06:18 |
| mteira | |trey|: It told me nothing. :) | 06:18 |
| |trey| | mteira: ctrl+c then :/ | 06:18 |
| spiv | Sorry, I've come in in the middle of this discussion. What process, and what do you mean by "locked"? :) | 06:18 |
| mteira | spiv: cat | 06:18 |
| mteira | spiv: I'm not able to ctrl-c it, neither kill -9 as root it. | 06:18 |
| |trey| | spiv: he was denied cat /proc/bus/usb/devices ..... | 06:19 |
| spiv | Right. Because it's stuck in the D state, I'll bet. | 06:19 |
| mteira | Yes, it's on D state | 06:19 |
| |trey| | spiv: D = dead or what | 06:19 |
| mteira | But that's because something weird happens with the usb support. | 06:19 |
| mteira | On normal situation, you're able to cat that file. | 06:19 |
| mteira | BTW that's not a file, it's an special kernel file. | 06:20 |
| spiv | mteira: Right. It shouldn't hang... it sounds like there's a bug in the usb support for your hardware. | 06:20 |
| mteira | spiv: sure. | 06:20 |
| mteira | spiv: I'm getting mad with it. | 06:20 |
| mteira | It's an AMD 756 or something so. | 06:21 |
| |trey| | spiv: no really, what is the D state? | 06:21 |
| mteira | ohci_hcd | 06:21 |
| darkersatanic | The D state is where the task is waiting for the kernel to do something, such as read from a device or write to one. | 06:21 |
| darkersatanic | Tasks should spend small amounts of time in D state. | 06:22 |
| darkersatanic | They can't be interrupted in D state, and if they end up getting stuck in it, you can't kill them. | 06:22 |
| mteira | D == uninterruptible sleep | 06:22 |
| mteira | It's a lock. | 06:22 |
| |trey| | darkersatanic: thank you :) | 06:23 |

| [rapha] | That's something I always found confusing about RHGB: why doesn't it just use the normal X configuration. | 07:33 |
| === Keybuk [scott@descent.netsplit.com] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| [rapha] | Hmm. Using the framebuffer, you'd rule out me for example. | 07:33 |

| andril | hello all | 07:34 |
| andril | can some one assist me with some sound issues? | 07:35 |
| Kamion | [rapha] : using X rules out a fair few of our users, as the bugs against X will testify | 07:36 |
| Kamion | [rapha] : presumably the installer also does not display correctly for you | 07:36 |
| [rapha] | Kamion: but isn't Ubuntu a desktop-centric distribution? How will it work without X? | 07:36 |
| Kamion | [rapha] : it sometimes requires manual configuration | 07:37 |
| [rapha] | Kamion: The text mode installer displays just fine. | 07:37 |
| Kamion | [rapha] : the "text mode" installer uses the framebuffer | 07:37 |
| [rapha] | Kamion: And if these users require manual configuration for X, where's the difference in doing it at install time? | 07:37 |
| Kamion | that's done after the first reboot; I'd want bootsplash to kick in at the first reboot to make sure the boot process works properly | 07:38 |
| [rapha] | Kamion: But it's not displaying pictures. For example, the isolinux picture isn't showing up here. | 07:38 |
| tvon|x31 | I dont care for rhgb because it takes too long to actually start up during the boot process | 07:38 |
| [rapha] | (Neither on any other LCD screen I tried Ubuntu on) | 07:38 |
| Kamion | [rapha] : the isolinux picture does not use the Linux framebuffer | 07:38 |
| Kamion | [rapha] : since it is displayed before Linux starts | 07:38 |
| [rapha] | Hmm | 07:39 |
| [rapha] | My fault, sorry | 07:39 |
| Kamion | isolinux breaking is an entirely separate and probably much harder problem | 07:39 |
| Kamion | in practice the framebuffer works out of the box with no configuration for virtually all our users | 07:39 |
| === Zero-G [~sjs298@sjshome.ict.ic.ac.uk] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| Kamion | and it allows you to start bootsplash before mounting /usr, for example | 07:39 |
| [rapha] | In that case I haven't said anything. | 07:40 |
| === njs12345 [NicholasSk@dsl-217-155-201-142.zen.co.uk] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| Kamion | using a framebuffer, you can display a splash image right out of the initrd | 07:40 |
| tseng | Kamion: kdrive (and I believe X) can run a (slow) X server on top of linux framebuffer | 07:40 |
| tseng | that might be useful for an installer. | 07:40 |
| Kamion | gtk/linuxfb or gtk/directfb is simpler and faster | 07:41 |
| C2H5OH | which version of Xfce4 does ubuntu have? | 07:42 |
| C2H5OH | (I mean the current Release) | 07:42 |
| Kamion | http://archive.ubuntulinux.org/ubuntu/pool/universe/x/xfce4/ | 07:43 |
| C2H5OH | thanks :-) | 07:43 |
| C2H5OH | 4.0.5 | 07:44 |
| C2H5OH | same as Debian Sid | 07:44 |
| C2H5OH | but I guess Gnome now loads almost as quick | 07:44 |
| C2H5OH | doesn't it ? | 07:44 |
| [rapha] | Kamion: do you know the bug number of the Totem-showing-only-a-blue-screen-bug? | 07:45 |
| === [rapha] can't find it | ||
| [rapha] | C2H5OH: 2.8 _is_ a good deal faster than previous versions, and _very_ usable. | 07:45 |
| Kamion | [rapha] : sorry, no | 07:45 |
| tseng | [rapha] : how about searching for all open totem bugs and look for the relevant description | 07:45 |
| C2H5OH | [rapha] : I'm sure of that, I just was wondering if its load time got closer to xfce4's | 07:46 |

| C2H5OH | [rapha] : by the way, do the gnome apps start to use bonobo at last? | 07:47 |
| [rapha] | Good idea tseng | 07:48 |
| [rapha] | C2H5OH: I don't even know what Bonobo does :) | 07:48 |
| C2H5OH | Bonobo is the component framework, based on CORBA Gnome is supposed to use | 07:48 |
| [rapha] | So... things would become more integrated by using it? | 07:49 |
| C2H5OH | yes | 07:49 |

| === shanev [~shanev@cad5.lifecor.com] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| njs12345 | [rapha] : it allows things like using a text editor widget in other apps | 07:49 |
| C2H5OH | bonobo is the Gnome approach, and kparts is the KDE approach | 07:49 |
| [rapha] | Oh okay | 07:49 |
| [rapha] | Hmm | 07:50 |
| Keybuk | bonobo is kinda deprecated | 07:50 |
| njs12345 | I think perhaps GNOME is moving to D-BUS | 07:50 |
| C2H5OH | Keybuk: I've read that is not very usable anyway | 07:50 |
| Keybuk | oh, it's quite usable | 07:50 |
| C2H5OH | I meant from the developer point of view | 07:50 |
| njs12345 | yeah, it is | 07:50 |
| Keybuk | so do I, the API is ok | 07:50 |
| njs12345 | the C bindings are kind of awkward, but the Python bindings are really awesome | 07:51 |
| C2H5OH | then, why there were so few apps bonobo-activated ? | 07:51 |
| Keybuk | C2H5OH: because it was the wrong thing | 07:51 |
| === [rapha] is still thrilled by being able to pop in a DVD and *ZABOOM* it starts playing | ||
| njs12345 | and it's virtually impossible to write something like a component system without it being unwieldy in C | 07:51 |
| tvon|x31 | bonobo is pretty complicated | 07:51 |
| C2H5OH | I can imagine | 07:52 |
| Keybuk | general RPC and message-passing is what d-bus is for now | 07:52 |

| |trey| | eniac: you're sure the quality wasn't different? | 07:57 |
| Keybuk | |trey|: it didn't exist when libpanel-applet was written | 07:57 |
| eniac | |trey|: same cd | 07:57 |
| njs12345 | eniac, the size of an mp3 depends on a lot more than the length of the clip ;) | 07:57 |

| tvon|x31 | eniac: does seem strage, though its very possible given how mp3 encoding works | 07:57 |
| |trey| | Keybuk: plans to port that to dbus? | 07:57 |

| Treenaks | (except for me, that is) | 07:58 |
| |trey| | eniac: bitrate is the same? | 07:58 |
| [rapha] | Kamion: but scrollkeeper is installed... | 07:58 |
| Kamion | [rapha] : look for /usr/bin/scrollkeeper-update.*? | 07:59 |
| |trey| | tvon|x31: I was getting there :) | 07:59 |
| tvon|x31 | |trey|: :-D | 07:59 |
| |trey| | Keybuk: debian devel list? | 07:59 |
| eniac | I have no idea how I should find out that | 07:59 |
| [rapha] | Kamion: There's only /usr/bin/scrollkeeper-uninstall | 07:59 |
| tvon|x31 | what command did you use to encode it? | 07:59 |
| |trey| | eniac: most mp3 players will report such things... | 07:59 |
| [rapha] | Ah | 07:59 |
| [rapha] | wait | 07:59 |
| tvon|x31 | though if you don't know then its probably the same or both ar vbr | 07:59 |

| |trey| | eniac: its mp3 though... | 08:00 |
| |trey| | Keybuk: ahh, that was my next guess :) | 08:00 |
| [rapha] | Keybuk: there's a couple of scrollkeeper-*, but no -update. | 08:00 |
| eniac | ok, finally yes the same bitrate | 08:00 |
| Kamion | [rapha] : "dpkg-divert --list '*scrollkeeper*'"? | 08:00 |
| [rapha] | Kamion: returns without ouput. | 08:00 |
| |trey| | eniac: ahh... that is wierd. | 08:01 |
| Kamion | [rapha] : very broken, scrollkeeper ships lots of binaries beyond scrollkeeper-uninstall | 08:01 |

| Treenaks | [rapha] : iwconfig eth0 key hexhexhexhexhex (only the hex digits, nothing else) | 08:08 |
| [rapha] | Treenaks: Or can you enter the HEX key directly in the network applet's entry field? Didn't try that... | 08:08 |

| === cfactor [~johnkim@callosum.BIC.Berkeley.EDU] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| kankalius | Can i ask another newbie question? :-) | 10:05 |
| kankalius | When i compile a new application from its source and it installs itself, how can i remove this app completely if i dont need it anymore? | 10:07 |
| kankalius | Thanks :-) | 10:07 |
| Kamion | depends very much on how it installed itself; in general, you can't if it didn't build a package | 10:08 |
| cfactor | If it has an uninstall script, use it, if not, check the install log and remove it by hand. | 10:08 |
| topyli | you keep the source dir and run 'make uninstall' from the build dir | 10:08 |
| Kosai | Kamion: What about make uninstall? | 10:08 |
| Kamion | if you didn't type 'sudo make install', then it's probably still entirely within the source directory tree | 10:08 |
| Kamion | 'make uninstall' is far from universal | 10:08 |
| Kamion | I'd venture to say "rare" | 10:08 |
| topyli | or you build a package like a sane person :) | 10:08 |
| Kosai | Kamion: Is autoconf rare? | 10:09 |
| kankalius | ok. Where can i find the install log? Is this inside the source-dir? | 10:09 |
| kankalius | And how can i build a package? | 10:09 |
| topyli | kankalius: easiest is to use checkinstall i guess | 10:10 |
| Kamion | Kosai: uninstall would be automake, not autoconf | 10:10 |
| Kosai | Oh. Um. Yes. :) | 10:10 |
| Kamion | some of my packages do seem to have uninstall | 10:10 |
| Kamion | but I doubt it's ever tested | 10:10 |
| Kosai | Okay. | 10:10 |
| kankalius | so i just have to test if make uninstall works :-) | 10:11 |
| Kosai | I think automake does provide an uninstall target by default, but I imagine you're right that it's rarely used/tested. | 10:11 |
| topyli | is checkinstall in ubuntu? it seems so but i don't remember where it came from :) | 10:11 |
| daniels | the other thing to note is that, even if something is automate, if people have hand-written their own install target, to do custom installs, they're unlikely to have written a matching uninstall target | 10:12 |
| kankalius | How can i make sure to be able to remove an app, especialy how can i make a removable package? | 10:13 |
| topyli | kankalius: checkinstall | 10:13 |
| Randomize | I'm at my wits end. Has anyone here compiled a gstreamer plugin for faad before? I can't figure out what gst-plugins needs to include faad in what it builds. | 10:13 |

| kankalius | Os2 is very cool. Just tried the eCom Station some days ago. :-) | 10:37 |
| defendguin | im not even sure i can file a good bug report because of the lack or an error message | 10:37 |

| geosB | i use eComstartion 1.2 | 10:37 |

| geosB | eComstation have a to high price | 10:38 |
| defendguin | ok ill file one :) | 10:38 |
| Kamion | geosB: there's a "freeknoppix" project, which should be a clue :) | 10:38 |

| spiv | It sounds different to yours :) | 10:40 |
| defendguin | most of the time that is where it will stall at acpid start up but it has hung at other places | 10:40 |
| topyli | geosB: mmmm. eComstation. i think you'll still find linux a bit more modern :) | 10:40 |

| seb128 | you can't scale it | 11:07 |
| seb128 | you change the ratio | 11:07 |
| seb128 | that's ugly | 11:07 |
| seb128 | worst than dropping a part | 11:08 |
| pv | that probably won't rule out scaling with a fixed aspect ratio | 11:08 |
| defendguin | maybe the applet should just have its own icons? | 11:08 |
| lupus_ | has someone the nvidia drivers installed through apt-get | 11:08 |
