| stvn | MCAlexP: indeed, but google will give the answer, i saw it many times, just never stored the information in my brain | 12:13 |
| sukoshi | i've just installed ubuntu, and i need to know how to add sources to dselect | 12:13 |
| stvn | MCAlexP: it's a debian thing, so searching for debian related problems will give you the answer | 12:13 |
| stvn | sukoshi: forget dselect | 12:14 |
| brettcar | sukoshi: You can use Synaptic to add a repository | 12:14 |
| yelo | MCAlexP: before you try anything else, check if you have a /dev/mice file, by doing "ls -lh /dev/mice", if you do, use that, and your mouse should work first time around | 12:14 |
| brettcar | sukoshi: Or just add the line to /etc/apt/sources.list | 12:14 |

I've got mplayer installed, which works great except that the size of the movie doesn't refresh with the size of the screen (fullscreen it's still only a kind of small picture), Xine which works but skips and drops frames at a horrible rate, and Totem, which doesn't work at all.

| Kamion | in /dev. For example, "(hd0)" will install GRUB to the master boot record | 01:19 |
| Kamion | of your first hard drive, while "/dev/hda2" will install it to the second | 01:19 |
| Kamion | partition of your first IDE drive. | 01:19 |
| doleyb | I tried several things: /dev/hda2, then /dev/scsi/lun0/disc0/part2... | 01:20 |
| doleyb | then /dev/sda2, /dev/sda, and finally hd0. | 01:20 |
| doleyb | My disk is sata. | 01:20 |
| Kamion | did you get any grub questions before that? | 01:20 |
| doleyb | After it copied the packages, it asked me where to install grub. Only one question. Each time I put something in, it failed. | 01:21 |

| doleyb | Is there a way I can try again, wtihout waiting for it to copy all packages again? (they should still be there from last time?) | 01:22 |
| Kamion | afraid not | 01:23 |
| Kamion | you can boot with archive-copier/copy=false to save some time | 01:24 |
| Kamion | (but you'll need to reinsert the CD in the second stage, then) | 01:24 |
| doleyb | Too complex for me. | 01:24 |
| doleyb | As a side note, the installer was also unable to work with my ethernet card. | 01:25 |
| doleyb | Debian can't use it either, but knoppix and fedora can. And debian can after I recompile the kernel. | 01:25 |
| doleyb | That problem is what stopped me from installing debian-amd64 earlier, because it needs network to get packages. | 01:25 |
| === mario [~mario@200.54.6.178] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| Kamion | doleyb: what Ethernet card? | 01:26 |
| doleyb | An ne2k-pci. It identifies fine, and ifconfig shows it, but it never really sends data. | 01:27 |
| meff | has anyone got bind9 to work? no matter what i try i get rndc errors.. | 01:27 |
| Kamion | what do you do when recompiling the kernel that helps? | 01:27 |
| doleyb | Sarge prints an error message whenever you try to send data, woody and ubuntu it fails silently. | 01:27 |
| stvn | meff: bind9 as in the dns server? | 01:28 |
| doleyb | I don't know exactly. I compile directly, instead of as module, but it doesn't make sense that would help. | 01:28 |
| meff | stvn: yup | 01:28 |
| stvn | meff: ah ok, nope debian still serving dns | 01:28 |
| meff | :/ | 01:28 |
| Kamion | bizarre, ne2k-pci is normally rock-solid reliable | 01:28 |
| doleyb | Yes, I complained to debian guys a year ago when i first noticed this, but they couldn't figure it out | 01:29 |
| stvn | doleyb: modprobing it doesn't help? | 01:29 |
| doleyb | I have 5 separate ne2kpci cards, and 2 separate motherboards, and I've cycled thru all 10 combos, and they fail the same way. | 01:29 |

| Kamion | stvn: if ifconfig shows it it's going to be already loaded, hmm? | 01:29 |
| doleyb | The module installs successful, and ifconfig eth0 looks fine, but it simply doesn't work for sending packets. | 01:30 |
| stvn | Kamion: oh, hm, missed that bit ;) | 01:30 |
| === Kamion <-- not a kernel guy, I'm afraid ... | ||

| doleyb | Yep. I will be back in 60 minutes with the result of trying ubuntu-amd64 installery again. | 01:31 |
| doleyb | Is ther anything else I should write down from watching it? | 01:31 |
| doleyb | (besides altf4) | 01:31 |
| Kamion | for the grub thing, if you could copy /var/log/syslog somewhere that'd help | 01:31 |
| Kamion | that's what's displayed on alt-f4 | 01:32 |
| doleyb | ok, cul8r | 01:32 |

| TheMuso | Ah sorry. Missread. | 03:06 |
| bluefoxicy | alright, what about the agenda for the next meeting | 03:07 |
| bluefoxicy | "Discussion of ProactiveSecurity" particularly | 03:07 |
| tseng | bluefoxicy: is that on the list? | 03:08 |
| bluefoxicy | there's some cruft on there about it possibly being a matter for the technical board, and a response I made | 03:08 |

| === FourdSwissCheese [~FourdSwis@c-24-13-251-238.client.comcast.net] has left #ubuntu [] | ||
| bluefoxicy | I would like to resolve where this belongs so that said comments can be cleared off to unclutter the page (or archived elsewhere, depending on protocol) | 03:08 |
| tseng | ah nice blue | 03:08 |
| bluefoxicy | tseng: It was my recommendation for the next meeting | 03:08 |
| brettcar | Golo: Is it the text editor that is giving you problems? | 03:08 |
| Golo | yes | 03:09 |
| bluefoxicy | and while we're on it, during said discussion it may be interesting to form a SecurityTeam for ProactiveSecurity if the council decides to pursue it; would a "Possible formation of the SecurityTeam" be appropriate, or should no mention be made? | 03:09 |
| tseng | there is a security team | 03:09 |
| bluefoxicy | really? | 03:10 |
| tseng | in the interest in closing vulnerabilities | 03:10 |
| brettcar | Golo: EDITOR=nano sudo visudo | 03:10 |

| tseng | i guess.. | 03:10 |
| bluefoxicy | (a bit garish) | 03:10 |
| tseng | the way I look at it | 03:10 |
| brettcar | Golo: Something like this | 03:10 |
| tseng | i dont want it to be distributed by ubuntu, pax and all that | 03:10 |
| brettcar | Golo: username ALL=(ALL) ALL | 03:10 |
| tseng | i just want it to be easy for you and I to use it if we'd like | 03:10 |
| brettcar | Golo: Where username is the new user's username | 03:10 |
| tseng | that means compatible glibc | 03:11 |
| Golo | okay | 03:11 |
| Golo | thanks a lot | 03:11 |
| brettcar | No problem | 03:11 |
| brettcar | Have fun with Ubuntu! | 03:11 |
| tseng | possibly gcc, even pre PIE/SSP for daemons | 03:11 |
| bluefoxicy | tseng: Unfortunately stack smash protection and PIE would not be possible without recompilation, ne? | 03:11 |
| tseng | bluefoxicy: i just said | 03:11 |
| tseng | possibly build popular daemon packages with them | 03:11 |
| bluefoxicy | yeah | 03:11 |
| bluefoxicy | tseng: My goals are clearly different :) | 03:12 |
| tseng | your goals are clearly out of scope :) | 03:12 |
| bluefoxicy | remember that things like zlib, mozilla, and gaim are vulnerable to buffer overflows | 03:12 |

| ultrafunk | cef_work: although, i'd say the same issues will apply to final, given all the patches cleanly apply without offset to 2.6.8.1-16 :( | 03:18 |
| bluefoxicy | brettcar: but trulthfully, if you're distribution is intended for general use, it's most likely not going to be put onto a highly specialized production server. :) | 03:18 |

| Keknehv | If one examines textual Marxism, one is faced with a choice: either reject neotextual constructive theory or conclude that art has intrinsic meaning. Therefore, in Beverly Hills 90210, Spelling reiterates precultural construction; in Models, Inc., although, he examines textual Marxism. Debord suggests the use of neotextual constructive theory to challenge and analyse sexual identity. | 03:38 |

| KazeNoBokusha | i don't know if xvid is in w32codecs but i know i currently can't play them | 05:31 |
| jgeorgeson | maybe libxvidcore4 | 05:31 |
| KazeNoBokusha | maybe it's because ubuntu uses gstreamer by default and not xine for totem? | 05:31 |
| bob2 | KazeNoBokusha: yes | 05:31 |
| jgeorgeson | and libxvidcore2 | 05:31 |
| KazeNoBokusha | so gstreamer can't do xvid, that sucks | 05:31 |
| bob2 | KazeNoBokusha: lots of xine codecs also patent-encumbered | 05:31 |
| bob2 | KazeNoBokusha: install totem-xine | 05:31 |
| bob2 | which is in ubuntu, but not on the cd | 05:31 |
| KazeNoBokusha | debian includes it, and they have a pretty restrictive idea of what they include as far as patents i think | 05:32 |
| Pizbit | KazeNoBokusha: Debian do *not* include w32codecs | 05:32 |
| bob2 | no, but it it does include xine | 05:32 |
| bob2 | which is what KazeNoBokusha is talking about | 05:32 |
| Pizbit | You most likely had the marillat line in your sources.list | 05:32 |
| jgeorgeson | KazeNoBokusha: debian makes it much easier to get patent encumbered packages then most other distributions i've tried, except suse and mandrake | 05:32 |

| evilmegaman | Can anyone help me out? | 05:33 |
| KazeNoBokusha | turned out mplayer had some problems | 05:33 |
| Witigonen | jgeorgeson, I found it was very easy to install mp3 packages and the like on Fedora. | 05:33 |

| evilmegaman | Lemme check | 05:33 |
| jgeorgeson | Witigonen: it's easier on debian. the installer asks if you want non-US and contrib | 05:34 |
| === PapaPitufo is now known as gatolas | ||
| jgeorgeson | with fedora you have to track down repos on your own | 05:34 |
| bob2 | non-Us in Debian is empty now | 05:34 |
| bob2 | and contrib doesn't have different rules for freeness to main | 05:34 |
| KazeNoBokusha | jgeorgeson, debian-installer never asked me that | 05:34 |
| Witigonen | jgeorgeson, the support page http://fedorafaq.org has a yum.conf file that has it all readily available. | 05:34 |
| evilmegaman | How do I know what mother board I have in windoze | 05:35 |
| sebast123 | Does anybody knows if the CD distribution system is working and if the CDs are already on the way? | 05:35 |
| jgeorgeson | well, all i know is that stuff like mstt corefonts, flashplayer, and some other stuff were available after i enabled contrib, so i didn't have to look for repos on my own | 05:35 |
| bob2 | evilmegaman: "Does your motherboard have SATA ports?" | 05:35 |
| bob2 | sebast123: it is working, they will ship in a bit | 05:35 |
| bob2 | sebast123: you should receive them in a month or so | 05:35 |
| jgeorgeson | Witigonen: which is not an official fedora (red hat) site | 05:35 |
| evilmegaman | bob2: oh | 05:35 |
| jgeorgeson | KazeNoBokusha: might have been the old installer | 05:36 |
| sebast123 | A month! that long? | 05:36 |
| bob2 | sebast123: dude. | 05:36 |
| KazeNoBokusha | well, i'm going to get xvid, if it has patent issues, i'm sorry, but all my anime is in xvid format and there is apparently no non-patent encumbered way to play it, so i'll just get w32codecs | 05:36 |
| bob2 | sebast123: someone is shipping thousands of cds out to random strangers around the world, waiting a month is not *that* big a deal | 05:36 |
| Pizbit | jgeorgeson: I'm fairly sure the old installer asked it too | 05:36 |
| KazeNoBokusha | jgeorgeson, i used RC1 and pre-RC2 installers, those are the newest ones (only ones, too) | 05:36 |
| bob2 | KazeNoBokusha: no, you want xine, as I said already | 05:36 |
| lamont | sebast123: the masters will hit the presser no earlier than monday, and then there are _A_LOT_ of cd's to press and ship | 05:36 |
| bob2 | KazeNoBokusha: install totem-xine, I'm pretty sure it will work | 05:36 |
| KazeNoBokusha | bob2, ok then | 05:36 |
| jgeorgeson | Pizbit: that's what i was saying, Kaze said debian-installer (the new one) doesn't ask | 05:36 |

| jgeorgeson | fsc it Just Worked for me | 05:49 |
| bob2 | KazeNoBokusha: you can file a bug asking for that | 05:49 |
| KazeNoBokusha | bob2, where? | 05:50 |
| jdub | KazeNoBokusha: no, it shouldn't do that. you don't have to worry about ubuntu-desktop being removed. | 05:50 |
| KazeNoBokusha | jdub, uaaa?! | 05:50 |

| jdub | KazeNoBokusha: don't bother filing a bug, it won't be fixed | 05:50 |
| fsc | jgeorgeson, well, the touchpad doubletap wouldn't work out of the box for me, so i had to setup xfree86-4 to do some synpatic stuff, now the usb mouse doesn't work because of some changes i had to do and synpatic was getting loaded twice | 05:50 |
| KazeNoBokusha | jgeorgeson, it isn't so | 05:50 |
| jdub | jgeorgeson: yes it should | 05:50 |

| WW | KazeNoBokusha: I think that's normal. ubuntu-desktop is a meta-package. | 05:50 |

| KazeNoBokusha | jgeorgeson, well, you could be right, but in debian, they require things like patent-free | paten-encumbered sometimes, even if you have to add non-free repo in order to get it | 05:54 |
| jgeorgeson | KazeNoBokusha: hence my earlier statement that debian makes it easier than other distros | 05:55 |
| lamont | KazeNoBokusha: just think of 'apt-get install ubuntu-desktop' as saying 'please install all of the supported parts of my desktop system, and remove anything they conflict with' | 05:55 |
| KazeNoBokusha | lamont, yes i know that | 05:55 |
| jgeorgeson | fsc: you have both InputDevice's listed in the ServerLayout section? | 05:55 |
| KazeNoBokusha | anyway, i see that ubuntu is even more patent-conscious than debian with it's dfsg, and that's ok, i suppose | 05:56 |
| bob2 | patents aren't so much a freedom issue as a "we can get sued" issue | 05:56 |
| WW | bob2: Just curious... Does java fall in the "we can get sued" category? | 05:57 |
| KazeNoBokusha | well, either debian doesn't care about being sued, or they've evaluated the risk to be extremely low | 05:57 |
| nuOpus | whats the easiest way to get totem to use mplayer? Just compile totem from scratch? | 05:57 |

| nuOpus | ya | 05:58 |
| nuOpus | I did it all the time in Gentoo | 05:58 |
| KazeNoBokusha | jgeorgeson, ah, good point | 05:58 |
| jgeorgeson | i guess the packager and the maintainer of the repository hosting the package | 05:58 |
| fsc | jgeorgeson, but right now the usb/wireless mouse is commented out because i was having problems. do you know what "SendCoreEvents" in xfree86-4 means? | 05:58 |
| jdub | nuOpus: totem doesn't have an mplayer backend | 05:58 |
| nuOpus | I used mplayer instead of gstreamer or xine cuz mplayer just played media better | 05:58 |
| nuOpus | uhhh ya it does | 05:58 |
| ficusplanet | nuOpus, Totem can't use mplayer, dude. | 05:58 |
| nuOpus | ask anyone who has ever used gentoo | 05:59 |
| jdub | no really, it doesn't :) | 05:59 |
| RageMax | xine is better anyway | 05:59 |
| jgeorgeson | fsc: it tells X to treat events from that device as though they were events from the Core device of that category | 05:59 |
| nuOpus | I constantly play my movies with totem. Sometimes when it crashes I have to killall mplayer | 05:59 |
| nuOpus | to remove the process | 05:59 |
| jgeorgeson | (pretend this mouse device is the Core mouse) | 05:59 |
| fsc | jgeorgeson, and that does what....? | 05:59 |
| KazeNoBokusha | nuOpus, i've tried both extensively, the only major difference being that when you use the osd and you are watching an xvid file, the osd leaves residue until those specific pixels are updated to show a different color | 05:59 |
| jgeorgeson | fsc: that's what enables the multiple mouse setup, like a hotpluggable usb mouse to go with your touchpad | 06:00 |
| fsc | jgeorgeson, curious, because i'm looking at sample xfree86-4 file and that's what it has in the ServerLayout section | 06:00 |
| KazeNoBokusha | of course, if you need to fool with the plugins, you might also want mplayer, but other than that not really | 06:00 |
| jdub | nuOpus: unless there is some kind of insanely stupid gentoo patch (which i doubt), there is no relationship between totem and mplayer at all :-) | 06:00 |
| nuOpus | but ya ... fuscus I can show you a process list playing a movie. Totem used mplayer to play through totem | 06:00 |
| fsc | jgeorgeson, so should one be a CorePointer and the other a SendCoreEvents? | 06:00 |
| jgeorgeson | fsc: yes | 06:01 |
| fsc | jgeorgeson, does it matter which one? | 06:01 |
| jgeorgeson | fsc: i don't think so, my core is /dev/input/mice and the sendcore is /dev/psaux | 06:01 |
| ficusplanet | nuOpus, http://www.hadess.net/totem.php3 Mplayer isn't even mentioned. Also, grep the source code - no mplayer. | 06:01 |
| WW | bob2 (or anyone else): So Java is not included because of a philosophical stance, not a legal constraint? | 06:01 |
| nuOpus | then its a gentoo patch | 06:01 |
| fsc | jgeorgeson, ok, i'm gonna try this | 06:01 |

| bob2 | WW: Debian has an installer package in contrib too, iirc | 06:03 |
| jdub | nuOpus: it would require a fairly significant amount of work to use mplayer within totem, and would be pretty well known if it had been done | 06:03 |
| ficusplanet | nuOpus, funny how a google search doesn't mention it, too. Seems like something that would be noteworthy enough to show up. | 06:03 |

| bob2 | WW: wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats :-) | 06:04 |
| KazeNoBokusha | bob2, well you could do like debian does where it doesn't include the binary in the .deb, but merely downloads it and installs it... | 06:04 |
| joem | s/and/including | 06:04 |
| KazeNoBokusha | bob2, that's what debian does with quake | 06:04 |

| bob2 | KazeNoBokusha: crashes | 06:15 |
| eheieh | bon soir superlag | 06:15 |
| SuperLag | The default install of Ubuntu installs a very modular kernel and I get a LOT of module errors when I boot. How can I clean that up? | 06:15 |
| bob2 | KazeNoBokusha: for instance, for some people, it would crash when you clicked javascript popup links | 06:15 |
| jgeorgeson | daniels: so you don't have hibernate, just suspend? | 06:15 |
| KazeNoBokusha | bob2, oh wow, i haven't experienced crashes, except 0.9 on gentoo and 0.8 on windows | 06:15 |
| WW | SuperLag: Do you mean, for example, hw_random? | 06:15 |
| SuperLag | WW: that, and if I remember it right, pciehp and some others | 06:16 |
| KazeNoBokusha | bob2, well perhaps it is linux specific? i've clicked such links without a problem | 06:16 |
| WW | SuperLag: ... and maybe something about yenta and i823560? | 06:16 |
| SuperLag | WW: wait a minute... isn't hw_random just the random number generator? | 06:16 |
| bob2 | KazeNoBokusha: it only affected some people, but it hit on mac os X (at least), too | 06:16 |

| KazeNoBokusha | bob2, in april | 06:19 |

| fsc | yeah, i don't need the RAID and LVM stuff either. and framebuffer and a bunch of other stuff....whereever the module list is | 06:20 |
| fsc | distros still confuse me with module stuff | 06:20 |
| KazeNoBokusha | about the laptop/RAID/LVM stuff, i bet it's using resources | 06:20 |
| SuperLag | The default install of Ubuntu installs a very modular kernel and I get a LOT of module errors when I boot. How can I clean that up? hw_random, pciehp, i82365, yenta are some examples... Gentoo will read /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6 for a list of modules to be loaded (assuming you don't have hotplug enabled/installed).... does Ubuntu read a file also? I'm just wanting to clean that up some. | 06:20 |

| KazeNoBokusha | pizbit, ok then, i find it useful to view more boot messages though | 06:21 |
| pizbit | KazeNoBokusha: dmesg is good for that | 06:21 |
| fsc | the question is where is the modules list in ubuntu...every distro does module stuff differently. I still get confused on how modules work | 06:21 |
| KazeNoBokusha | dmesg? doesn't that not display all the messages? | 06:21 |
| pizbit | *shrug* It shows what I need to see | 06:22 |

| KazeNoBokusha | well i remember on debian it didn't for example show privoxy loading | 06:22 |
| KazeNoBokusha | pizbit, recompile is the only way, right? | 06:22 |
| KazeNoBokusha | or maybe not... | 06:22 |
| linux_mafia | my city is having an installfest, i want to push ubuntu as the (one of) distro to use, im sure i read a summary of what was so good about it somewhere, maybe osnews or something? unfortunately i think it was a ubuntu vs debian proper thread, not the angle i want to push, but it did highlight the best points, and counter arguments i may face, anyone know of the article/thread? | 06:22 |
| pizbit | KazeNoBokusha: Nah, they're modules so there should be an arguement to put on the kernel boot line | 06:23 |
| bronson | linux_mafia: Ubuntu just works. | 06:23 |
| KazeNoBokusha | bronson, sorry, Slack already uses that line | 06:23 |

| KazeNoBokusha | weird, i'm running kernel 2.6.8, but the newest kernel in apt is 2.6.7 :( | 06:39 |

| sp0rk | right-o | 06:59 |
| sp0rk | thanks. | 06:59 |
| KazeNoBokusha | eclipse, besides, they are just decoding the mp3 and outputting it to the speakers, if you don't enhance the sound, it should sound the same | 06:59 |
| sp0rk | eclipse, i do know that it's easier to max our certain channels under linux and get minor distortion | 07:00 |
| KazeNoBokusha | as in, exactly the same | 07:00 |

| Despair | mixer settings. | 07:00 |
| Despair | and yes, the mp3 decoders vary. | 07:00 |
| KazeNoBokusha | then it's not winamp or xmms, it's the kernel | 07:00 |
| eclipse | just like wmp sounds better than winamp | 07:00 |
| KazeNoBokusha | hmm, well i don't know then | 07:00 |
| sp0rk | eclipse, i think its qualitative on your end man =P | 07:01 |
| Despair | most musicians & audio programmers I know think libmad sounds better than most other mp3 decoders | 07:01 |

| cadam | oooo well that helps | 07:27 |
| bob2 | eclipse: because you didn't enable the root account | 07:27 |
| jdub | eclipse: by default? because we've set it up a better way so you don't have to. but you can change that if you can | 07:27 |
| opi | eclipse: because it's diabled | 07:27 |

| jdub | dudes | 07:31 |
| bob2 | eclipse: can you stop being so aggressive and "dump"? | 07:31 |

| KazeNoBokusha | eclipse, yes, he's too dump | 07:31 |
| jdub | cadam: great | 07:31 |
| sp0rk | jdub, i think it's pretty entertaining, actually | 07:32 |
| KazeNoBokusha | i hate dump people, always going through my trash | 07:32 |
| bob2 | jdub: ok to add a link from the faq to the "benfits" section of the wiki? | 07:32 |
| jdub | sp0rk: it's not appropriate for this channel | 07:32 |

| jdub | bob2: sure | 07:32 |
| jdub | bob2: we should probably shift that all to the website or something though | 07:32 |
| sp0rk | jdub, i agree, but still man...he called the guy "dump" | 07:32 |
| opi | sp0rk: ;-> | 07:32 |
| bob2 | jdub: hm, that sounds more like a non-bob2 job | 07:33 |
| eclipse | ok, i guess i gotta jet cuz these geeks r too stupid | 07:33 |

| jdub | opi: no but. | 07:34 |
| opi | ok, sorry :) | 07:34 |
| cadam | ok just a question | 07:34 |
| sp0rk | i had a bad feeling about him the first minute i read something he typed | 07:34 |
| TheMuso | It could also result in the loss of one or more possible users of Ubuntu. | 07:34 |
| cadam | why include all the python stuff but not gcc? | 07:34 |
| jdub | cadam: gcc is supported, and on the cd, but not installed by default | 07:34 |
| bob2 | cadam: it's on the CD, tho. | 07:34 |
| opi | cadam: Python is requred by few things | 07:34 |
| sp0rk | cadam, python is an interpreted language, some of the stuff installed by default requires a working installation of python | 07:35 |
| opi | cadam: while you don't need GCC if you're not going to compile anything | 07:35 |
| cadam | ah ok | 07:35 |
| sp0rk | python programs are a differnt beast than, say, a c program | 07:35 |
| cadam | makes sense | 07:35 |
| cadam | yeah I know I program in both | 07:35 |
| opi | lucky you :) | 07:35 |
| jdub | cadam: (it ends up being a policy issue -> many people would not want a compiler available on a default desktop install, etc.) | 07:35 |
| cadam | I was just wondering why all the python stuff by default | 07:35 |
| cadam | yeah | 07:36 |
| jdub | cadam: the python stuff is all there because we intend to make ubuntu live and breathe python :) | 07:36 |

| bob2 | are you sure your sound driver supports that? | 08:29 |
| Gmail | bob2: yes the house next door the people in there NEVER ware cothes if that not wirod then WTF | 08:29 |
| cef_work | aha, it's not putting the 3ware driver in the initrd | 08:30 |
| angad | Hi bob, I think so. I have soundblaster with a surround system. | 08:30 |
| daniels | Gmail: if you're calm and rational, it's a lot easier to find help | 08:30 |
| Gmail | bob2: because i havent modconf the driver yet | 08:30 |
| cef_work | anyone here manually inserted stuff into the initrd during an install? | 08:30 |
| bob2 | Gmail: no, how do you know it isn't working? | 08:30 |
| cef_work | daniels: afternoon | 08:30 |
| Gmail | no distro ever has deteched my sound driver | 08:30 |
| daniels | cef_work: hey dude | 08:30 |
| angad | cef, were you talking to me? | 08:31 |
| bob2 | cef_work: if you jump to the console (alt-f2) and modprobe it, it should get stuck in the initrd | 08:31 |
| bob2 | er, during the install | 08:31 |
| bob2 | Gmail: what driver does it use? | 08:31 |
| Gmail | bob2: ubuntu is going to be the first distro to detech it | 08:31 |
| cef_work | daniels: trying to install a dual-opteron system atm | 08:31 |
| Gmail | bob2: wirod one that i can remember is i cound use modconf | 08:31 |
| Pizbit | Anyone know if there's a way to recursively apply a background to the nautilus windows? | 08:32 |
| Gmail | i = if | 08:32 |
| bob2 | daniels: cef_work btw, did that guy with the the little embedded machines organise a group order? | 08:32 |
| Gmail | Pizbit: goto prefrences | 08:32 |
| cef_work | bob2: well the driver is loaded and was loaded last time. it's not in the initrd, otherwise it wouldn't complain that it can't pivot-root and therefore couldn't open dev/console | 08:32 |
| Android16 | Hahaha | 08:32 |
| Pizbit | Gmail: I don't want it for all directories, just recusively for the ones I choose. | 08:32 |
| Android16 | kewl | 08:32 |
| angad | I have two sound tabs, TriTech TR28602 (OSS Mixer), and Soundblaster Live! (Alsa Mixer). The bass/treble settings are not having any effect on my sound. And i don't think I have two soundcards. What could be causing this? | 08:32 |

| Android16 | www.cyberwizards.co.za | 08:33 |
| cef_work | bob2: it SHOULD.. the problem is, it doesn't seem to be working | 08:33 |
| Gmail | cef_work: it should be /dev/console and not dev/console | 08:33 |
| bob2 | cef_work: ah, sorry for wasting your time :) | 08:33 |
| cef_work | Gmail: when your cwd is /, it makes no difference | 08:33 |

| cef_work | Gmail: dev/console (or /dev/console) can't be opened cos pivot-root failed. ie: there is no /dev directory to switch the console to | 08:35 |
| Gmail | cef_work: there is a way of fixinf it that #debian-boot told me BUT they said it was a hell of alot easier to reinstall with a newer version of d-i | 08:35 |
| Gmail | cef_work: excatly | 08:35 |
| bob2 | Gmail: dude, he's using ubuntu | 08:35 |
| bob2 | Gmail: there is no newer version to use | 08:35 |

| bob2 | Gmail: yes, I know that, but how does it help? he can't switch to a "newer version of d-i", since there isn't one. | 08:36 |
| cef_work | Gmail: and since I'm using the release version, I'd like to know so I can add it to the FAQ and stop anyone else asking | 08:37 |
| cef_work | Gmail: and I'm QUITE aware of the how behind d-i.. i've just forgotten how to manually install modules into the initrd during the install process | 08:37 |
| Gmail | bob2: i know but #debian-boot said there is a way of fixing it but its a lot harder than just reinatlling using kernel 2.6 which was in a later d-i | 08:37 |
| bob2 | Gmail: he's using 2.6 | 08:38 |
| cef_work | Gmail: and if I go ito debian-boot and ASK a q, and they ask 'are you using ubuntu' and I say yes, they'll say 'fuck off, this is #debian-boot not #ubuntu-boot - get ubuntu people to do your support | 08:38 |
| Gmail | but #debian-boot told me howto manuily do it and install module to interd during install... | 08:39 |
| cef_work | Gmail: it's like going into #debian and asking Knoppix questions - just say no! | 08:39 |
| Gmail | cef_work: but its a d-i question | 08:40 |
| Gmail | d-i is not u-i or something like that | 08:40 |
| Gmail | if you want d-i help #debian-boot can help you but if you ubuntu help only #ubuntu and ##inux will help ya | 08:41 |
| daniels | bob2: i dunno | 08:41 |
| bob2 | haha ##linux | 08:41 |

| Gmail | it like #gnome on irc.gimpnet.org helping you for gnome even thou you are using ubuntu | 08:42 |
| bob2 | yes, but you've just said it's an ubuntu-specific problem | 08:42 |
| Gmail | IT not a ubuntu problem | 08:43 |
| Gmail | its a d-i problem | 08:43 |

| angad | I have two sound tabs, TriTech TR28602 (OSS Mixer), and Soundblaster Live! (Alsa Mixer). The bass/treble settings are not having any effect on my sound. And i don't think I have two soundcards. What could be causing this? | 08:43 |
| Treenaks | the fact that there's an OSS emulation layer for ALSA? | 08:44 |

| cef_work | ok, later ppl | 09:51 |
| opi | I can get a lib for you, tux :) | 09:51 |

| WW | tux: Stuff in multiverse is "non-free" | 09:59 |
| tux | um.. pay ?? | 10:00 |
| WW | tux: I don't know all the details, but basically stuff that has different or stricter licensing than GPL. | 10:00 |
| tux | ok | 10:01 |
| WW | tux: There is a question about it in the Ubuntu FAQ. | 10:01 |
| opi | tux: no, not Open Source | 10:01 |
| opi | tux: closed, binary stuff | 10:01 |
| tux | thats weird, when i updated nmap thru universe thru apt-get on the pc , it was ver. 3.50 | 10:02 |
| tux | shit i meant to say 3.70 | 10:02 |
| Treenaks | opi: also stuff with source available, but too restrictively licensed | 10:02 |
| opi | yes, | 10:02 |
| tux | the universe site has onlt 3.50 | 10:02 |
| smo | one of those times where "free software" vs "open source" actually starts to make sense ;o) | 10:02 |
| tux | disregard that last statement, i got it off debian site, i just remembered - duh! | 10:03 |

| opi | SavuZiil: depends what you like to get | 10:40 |
| opi | SavuZiil: having decent Gnome experience will cost around Celeron 600 and 128/256Mb of memory | 10:40 |
| bob2 | SavuZiil: for gnome you'd want 256MB of ram, 1.8GB of disk and maybe a p3 or p2 | 10:40 |
| opi | SavuZiil: full Ubuntu takes aroudn 1.8Gb | 10:41 |
| gelfling | bob2: does that get me the same as the drivers off the nvidia site? Or are they the open source | 10:41 |
| opi | gelfling: NVidia drivers are not Open Source | 10:41 |
| bob2 | gelfling: the same dodgy binary drivers nvndia ships | 10:41 |
| opi | nv drivers in XF are open sourced | 10:41 |
| SavuZiil | but what can i do with 500mhz pentium2 and with 128mb ram | 10:41 |
| opi | but withour acceleration | 10:41 |
| bob2 | SavuZiil: it wil be ok, but might be a bit slow | 10:42 |
| opi | SavuZiil: you can still get Linux expereince nice, but I would not recomend Gnome | 10:42 |
| stvn | SavuZiil: it can run it, but it would be wise to put an extra 128 ram in | 10:42 |
| gelfling | bob2: ok thanks, in that case I got em already! thanks bob2, saves me messing about ^_^ | 10:42 |
| daniels | er, I think they do 2D acceleration for most primitives | 10:42 |
| SavuZiil | so kde is the way to go? | 10:42 |
| bob2 | SavuZiil: try it and see...if gnome is annoyingly slow, you can run other things | 10:42 |
| daniels | as well as Xv | 10:42 |
| bob2 | SavuZiil: kde is as slow or slower | 10:42 |
| opi | SavuZiil: there's a XFce4 that would go | 10:42 |
| stvn | SavuZiil: I run it perfectly fine on a amd K6 400MHz, but it has 400 MB ram | 10:42 |
| opi | SavuZiil: KDE/Gnome are big DE, while XFce/Fluxbox are just WM | 10:43 |

| __daniel | loz, synaptic (via apt) hit their repositories: it's alright. otherwise it'd say "fail" or "failed" | 11:28 |
| cef | Kamion: or alternatively, a way I can add it manually during the install process? | 11:28 |
| Kamion | cef: only at initrd build time, AFAIK | 11:29 |
| Kamion | cef: you can re-run mkinitrd during the install ... | 11:29 |

| deFrysk | patrick_, the installer of macromedia.com | 11:58 |
| dyn | can i make it somehow accept my decision? | 11:58 |
| niels\ | bronson is your antenna attached directly to the card ? if so your computer case must be disturbing the signal | 11:58 |

| bronson | But that's a good point. | 11:59 |
| niels\ | bronson oh ok | 11:59 |
| deFrysk | patrick_, please stop pinging me | 11:59 |

| philipp1 | hello, did someone get mplayer to work, or DVD in general ? | 12:01 |
| patrick_ | me !! | 12:01 |
| niels\ | patrick_ havent you seen in the README that you need some fonts like the dsfons ones | 12:01 |
| bronson | philipp1: yep. what's the problem. | 12:01 |
| niels\ | gsfonts sorry | 12:01 |
| philipp1 | i just installed it using the instructions in ubuntu's new howto | 12:01 |
| bronson | "with select models of the T23 featuring a dual antenna system built into the display cover in order to increase signal strength." | 12:02 |
| philipp1 | and now mplayer does not even start | 12:02 |

| === deFrysk simply uses the installer of macromedia.com, always works fine | ||

| deFrysk | Treenaks, I am sure it does | 12:02 |

| topyli | philipp1: i installed the mplayer-custom ubuntu packge and it won't start either :) | 12:02 |
| bronson | Man these thing were expensive new. Work just gave this one to me because it's apparently obsolete. :) | 12:02 |
| philipp1 | exactly | 12:03 |
| deFrysk | Treenaks, I tried it with apt-get install flash-plugin but see now i used the wrong packagename :s | 12:03 |

| tolly | i just installed tcl and tk, when i compile a program that uses it i get this error /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -ltcl | 01:30 |
| |trey| | bob2: that requires fireing up another browser though :( | 01:30 |
| tolly | how do i fix it? | 01:30 |
| plovs_work | everytime a question does not get answered for 2 minutes the bot will say: wiki.ubuntulinux.org | 01:30 |
| bob2 | tolly: you need libtcl-dev or so | 01:30 |
| enrico_ | ..: well ive actually installed ubuntu's for my little brothere | 01:30 |
| Kamion | plovs_work: and a bot can tell when a question has been answered - how? | 01:30 |
| enrico_ | and yes i do think it's not that easy... | 01:30 |
| tolly | bob2: is it on the tcl/tk website? | 01:31 |
| enrico_ | basically... not everyone knows what the vesa driver is... so | 01:31 |
| Kamion | enrico_: well, then, file bugs | 01:31 |
| tolly | i installed the tcl and tk from the website | 01:31 |
| plovs_work | if i ask a question (...?) and you see no plovs_work: | 01:31 |
| bob2 | tolly: it's in ubuntu | 01:31 |

| enrico_ | considering that is possible... it could be nice making a script to let ubuntu install like knoppix boot | 01:31 |
| bob2 | enrico_: when does anyone need to know what a ves driver is to install? | 01:32 |
| Kamion | plovs_work: we do not need more noise in this channel, bot-generated or otherwise. | 01:32 |
| tolly | i installed the one from the website already | 01:32 |

| tolly | the one in ubuntu wasnt good | 01:32 |
| bob2 | Kamion: wait until the spambots arrive | 01:32 |
| tolly | didnt work | 01:32 |
| Kamion | enrico_: you only need to know about the vesa driver if your graphics card and monitor can't be autodetected. | 01:32 |

| stvn | night bronson | 01:33 |
| plovs_work | bronson, nice vacation! | 01:33 |
| bob2 | tolly: if you installed tcl from source then you need to point cnet's configure script at what you installed | 01:33 |
| enrico_ | youall: nooo, i dont really think so.. because vesa driver is ok for the 95% of the hw now in commerce... you could make a type of installation were everything is automated... | 01:33 |
| bob2 | tolly: but you really don't need to build tcl from source | 01:33 |
| enrico_ | like at the boot prompt an "easy" option | 01:33 |
| |trey| | tolly: you have those -dev packages? | 01:33 |
| bob2 | enrico_: vesa is horrible | 01:33 |

| bob2 | maybe samba and ftpds. | 01:35 |

| Kamion | enrico_: I am one of the people who would have to support this, and it doesn't work that way | 01:36 |

| bob2 | Hawkeye: just don't install inetd then... | 01:36 |
| |trey| | Kamion: fair enough :) | 01:36 |
| Kamion | |trey|: if it isn't easy enough, then we should fix the default. | 01:36 |
| enrico_ | i can support ubuntu in the county of parma | 01:36 |
| Hawkeye | bob2: it's installed by default | 01:36 |
| pantz_ | do i need to do anything more than 'apt-get update && apt-get upgrade' to move from the preview release to the 4.1 release? | 01:36 |
| enrico_ | without having ppl to bother you | 01:36 |
| Hawkeye | and a lot of services depend on it | 01:36 |

| Kamion | enrico_: I'm the installer team leader; like it or not, people will bother me :-) | 01:37 |
| enrico_ | ... moreover.. it'll be nice to have programs already localizaed | 01:37 |
| stvn | pantz_: apt-get dist-upgrade is better | 01:37 |
| bob2 | pantz_: there's a page on the wiki about it | 01:37 |
| Hawkeye | that's the beauty of a system like gentoo, where you simply specify USE=-xinetd before compiling to drop support | 01:37 |
| enrico_ | ...localized... | 01:37 |
| pantz_ | stvn, bob2 thanks | 01:37 |
| |trey| | Kamion: the X configuration shouldn't be there... IMO, and mail should default to the only user made... | 01:37 |
| enrico_ | bcause firefox isnt | 01:37 |
| Kamion | |trey|: it isn't, if it's autodetected | 01:37 |
| bob2 | |trey|: hahahahahaha | 01:37 |
| daniels | enrico_: vesa just isn't an option. | 01:37 |
| Kamion | |trey|: if it didn't work for you, see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingXautoconfiguration | 01:37 |
| bob2 | pantz_: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/WartyWarthog_2fUpgradeNotes | 01:38 |
| Kamion | |trey|: you don't have to configure mail in the installer | 01:38 |
| daniels | enrico_: it doesn't necessarily work on all chipsets, it's incredibly slow, et al. it would support far less hardware than our current setup. | 01:38 |
| bob2 | enrico_: please help localise firefox then | 01:38 |
| |trey| | Kamion: it was right, but I was prompted to accept each screen... thats how I usually have it... but n00b's might be confused :( | 01:38 |
| daniels | |trey|: in that case, you have found a bug, and please follow Kamion's link to debug it and file a bug if you want to see it improved | 01:39 |
| |trey| | Kamion: oh, well I think you did for the Preview Release? I was kinda high when I installed RC :o | 01:39 |
| enrico_ | bob2: firefox is already localized in italian... i can help localizing your web site... im only askin to the installer team to plz make autolocalization | 01:39 |
| enrico_ | btw GREAT JOB | 01:39 |

| elvstone | hm, i've got a computer set up with ubunto and gnome, and most of the interface are in swedish, but some for some items the translation is missing, and i think this is because of some of the modification ubuntu has made to the gnome it ships.. would it be easy for me to get the .po-files for the gnome that ubuntu uses and correct the translations? | 02:06 |
| bob2 | enrico_: look in the properties | 02:07 |

| loz | WW: difficult in some ways. What you need to get is mplayer and mplayer-plugin or mplayerplug-in (I forget which it's called). You need to compile them from source, but read the mplayer FAQ/Howto for quicktime support, then mplayer plugin does the embedded media player (handles wmv etc. too) and is coming along nicely with proper support. -- there is the added bonus of right click and save to ;) | 04:34 |

| stvn | ccox: ubuntu-desktop is a meta package, can savely be removed once it is installed | 06:04 |
| ccox | ahhhh okay. Just wondering cuz I wanted to compile latest gaim | 06:05 |
| stvn | ccox: as long as it is only ubuntu-desktop, if it produces a large list, it's bad | 06:05 |

| cenerentola | what should i do? | 06:05 |
| stvn | cenerentola: your permissions are wrong | 06:05 |
| stvn | cenerentola: with the mount command add -o umask=000 or add the mount to /etc/fstab and allow users to mount it and mount it as user | 06:06 |
| ccox | hey has anyone heard of the program called paco? | 06:06 |
| cenerentola | coul you plz give the complete command | 06:06 |
| ajame | ccox: pico? | 06:07 |
| stvn | cenerentola: how did you mount it? | 06:07 |
| ccox | no paco | 06:07 |
| stvn | I know a dog called paco ;) | 06:07 |
| cenerentola | mount /dev/hdb1 /media/data | 06:07 |
| ccox | it keeps track of all software you compile manually and puts them in a list so you can uninstall them easily | 06:07 |
| ccox | works really well | 06:07 |
| stvn | cenerentola: unmount it and try mount -o umask=000 /dev/hdb1 /media/data - but if you need it on a regular basis, it's better to add it to /etc/fstab | 06:08 |
| cenerentola | ok thanks | 06:08 |
| siretart | Kamion: do you remember my problem with parted not showing partitions? my part. table was b0rked. I fixed it with sfdisk. i think #2412 is the same problem. perhaps partman should tell the user that the partition table is "bad" | 06:09 |

| ulisse | as if the list is already up to date... | 07:07 |
| stvn | _anderson_: it's a risk using non-ubuntu sources, I'd suggest to comment the two innovation ones and apt-get update | 07:07 |
| stvn | ulisse: if you reloaded it already today, it will be fast, there are not /that/ many updates that you'll see changes within a day | 07:08 |

| retype-s | stvn, but the epi way is clearly worse than firefox, it could be a great browser if it wasn't for that | 07:52 |

| stvn | that's the big problem with cross platform apps (just like OO.o) their dialogues do not blend into the host OS | 07:56 |
| diego1 | can i use kde with gdm on ubuntu? (ok that was a stupid question...) where can i find the config file to add kde to the gdm session list? | 07:56 |
| Nonphasis | hmm, one might think making ff use gnome file dialogs should be pretty easy | 07:56 |
| stvn | diego1: if you install kde, it will added to gdm menu | 07:56 |
| stvn | +be | 07:57 |
| diego1 | stvn, uh..didn't happen for me. maybe i missed a package? | 07:57 |
| retype-s | anyone using kde on ubuntu could please explain to me why do that? | 07:57 |

| skaught | hehe | 07:58 |
| green_ | Nonphasis: im using KDE un ubuntu | 07:58 |

| skaught | Why wouldn't you use Debian if you're using KDE? | 07:59 |
| retype-s | diego1, from where did you install kde? | 07:59 |
| twitchgame | i would hope that ubuntu would stick to gnome only.. | 07:59 |
| bob2 | diego1: installing it isn't enough | 07:59 |
| Nonphasis | all the cool kids use ubuntu these days? ;-) | 07:59 |
| bob2 | ? | 07:59 |
| bob2 | twitchgame:kde is in universe | 07:59 |
| stvn | diego1: that's odd, I'd say it should have added it | 07:59 |
| snazbaz | does ubuntu have a gdesklets package? | 07:59 |
| green_ | i think it looks nice :) a little bit work and its there, nice | 07:59 |
| diego1 | retype-s, from the universal repository...i may have missed a couple packages though.. | 07:59 |
| LinuxJones | Nonphasis, you probably have to enable anti-aliasing and adjust fonts in kdecontrol center | 07:59 |
| twitchgame | bob2: that's too bad then :) | 08:00 |
| diego1 | retype-s, i know for sure i installed kde-base | 08:00 |
| retype-s | diego1, you never miss anything using apt :) | 08:00 |
| Nonphasis | LinuxJones, yeah, probably, but at that point I was already uninstalling it. I thought I could get used to gnome, and i did | 08:00 |
| green_ | Nonphasis, sure eable anti-aliasing | 08:00 |
| retype-s | diego1, you have to install kde | 08:00 |
| retype-s | diego1, it should be some kind of metapackage that put it in gdm | 08:01 |
| LinuxJones | Nonphasis, I was a longtime KDE user until I installed Ubuntu and I would never switch back :) | 08:01 |
| udo | hello! My Evolution isnt filtering spam, although i checked both boxes in the preferences. Any1 knows why? | 08:02 |
| Nonphasis | I still have to admit that kde 3.3 rocks | 08:02 |
| diego1 | retype-s, that's probably my problem. i come from gentoo where kde is a metapackage that simply depends on kde-base, kde-libs, kde-network, kdepim, etc | 08:02 |
| green_ | LinuxJones, but like me i have to use KDE because we are developing some cpp applicvations with QT :( | 08:02 |
| stvn | udo: you need to train it | 08:02 |
| twitchgame | kde != qt | 08:02 |
| LinuxJones | Nonphasis, yes it is very good | 08:02 |

| diego1 | well i gotta go to my next class, thanks for the help | 08:02 |
| green_ | twitchgame, sure you are right but it written with QT and its more looking like apps with QT and qtdevelop | 08:03 |
| retype-s | diego1, maybe we should suggest that ubuntu be based in gentoo :) | 08:03 |
| Nonphasis | and I thing I've needed to tweak gnome more than I had to do w/ kde | 08:03 |
| stvn | retype-s: yeah, it should be based on gentoo and run kde at default ;) | 08:03 |
| mirak_- | ahhhh. | 08:03 |
| mirak_- | don't do that | 08:03 |
| retype-s | stvn, kde sucks, gentoo rulez... | 08:04 |
| stvn | said the man using ubuntu | 08:04 |
| bob2 | "kde" in ubuntu is just a meta-package | 08:04 |
| green_ | here i can say that KDE is not sucks :) its a little bit slow :) | 08:04 |
| mirak_- | I dig the debian......and anything BUT kde | 08:04 |
| Nonphasis | GENTOO!! | 08:04 |
| Nonphasis | (sorry about the /. moment) | 08:04 |
| stvn | Nonphasis: lol | 08:04 |
| twitchgame | green_: yeah but you can still run qt apps from gnome.. there's nothing forcing you to struggle with kde just because you're writing qt apps | 08:05 |
| retype-s | i really love debian, i just love gentoo even more | 08:05 |
| bob2 | then use it. | 08:05 |

| Nonphasis | I bet there are gentoo trolls in the jungles of papua-new guinea | 08:06 |
| green_ | twitchgame, yes yr right but qt-development on KDE is more looking good | 08:06 |
| mirak_- | some one plz pm me.......and tell me why they love gentoo so much....plz | 08:06 |
| bob2 | Nonphasis: and they're still mocked by the natives | 08:06 |
| Nonphasis | green_, can't you just adjust the settings from kde control center but still use gnome? | 08:06 |
| bob2 | mirak_-: please don't encourage pointless trolling | 08:07 |
| retype-s | twitchgame, kdevelop has to start all that kde system (dcop kio and everything) so it will take a day to start on gnome | 08:07 |

| Nonphasis | I used to be a fan of dselect as well, but that was before aptitude & synaptic | 09:40 |
| Kamion | Nonphasis: as I said on the mailing list recently, I find aptitude's UI even worse than dselect's notoriously eccentric one | 09:40 |
| lamont | Nonphasis: apt-cache show dpkg| grep Depend | 09:41 |
| lamont | Pre-Depends: dselect, libc6 (>= 2.3.2.ds1-4) | 09:41 |
| lamont | that's why it's there, in part | 09:41 |
| Nonphasis | lamont, good point. I just have to wonder why | 09:41 |
| Kamion | the pre-depends is required for upgrades from woody. | 09:41 |
| lamont | Kamion: 100% agreement on the 2 UI's | 09:41 |

| meff | for a terminal ui, though.. i'd go with aptitude over dselect anyday | 09:42 |
| Nonphasis | actually, dselect has been getting more bad press than it deserves | 09:42 |
| Kamion | if it's not there, then if you upgraded with dselect then you could find yourself with dselect disappearing under your feet during the upgrade, which would be profoundly unpleasant to say the least. | 09:42 |

| HeMan | iz: wasn't sure | 10:05 |

| calc | toshiba 1712 is just a 16x DVD-ROM not a writeable | 10:05 |
| eruditus | one more question --- how do I change the services running? I need to do that in order to change my sound driver. It has, as always, been miss-detected... | 10:05 |
| skar | i did a "apt-show-versions | grep gtkht" and got "libgtkhtml3.2-11/warty uptodate 3.2.3-0ubuntu1" | 10:05 |
| Solkaris | shar got universe and multiverse in your etc/apt/sources.list? | 10:05 |
| skar | so, whats this fuss about libgtkhtml not there and can't be installed, when its there already? | 10:06 |
| eruditus | anyone? | 10:06 |

| Solkaris | skar yep | 10:07 |
| skar | solkaris:no only universe there | 10:07 |
| Kamion | jacob: or 'apt-get -qqy --print-uris --reinstall <package>' (but that'll print the URIs of dependencies too) | 10:07 |
| Solkaris | skar hmmm | 10:07 |
| skar | solkaris:though, i dunno what universe or multiverse are? | 10:07 |
| eruditus | meff- do you know how to access the services running and change them? | 10:08 |
| skar | solkaris:how can libgtkhtml cannot be installed, when its already installed? | 10:08 |
| jacob | Kamion, ok, that should get me going , thanks | 10:08 |
| Solkaris | Skar try adding multiverse to sources.list and see if it will install then | 10:08 |
| aardvark | bonjour everyone | 10:09 |
| Solkaris | skar not sure .. but ran into a problem that was similar to yours and adding multiverse to the sources.list got it to work | 10:09 |
| eruditus | anyone?!?!?!?!!!?!?!?!??!!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? | 10:09 |
| skar | solkaris:does that mean changing "deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ warty universe" to "deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ warty universe multiverse" ? | 10:10 |
| aardvark | how would I be able t verify that I am indeed running Ubuntu 1.0 instead of a RC version | 10:10 |

| cardador | aardvark: if a graphical solution is available, i think its better over comand line solution | 11:13 |

| bern` | thanks guys that worked | 11:14 |
| LinuxJones | bern`, sorry I went afk | 11:14 |
| cardador | aardvark: i tend to prefer gui but command line is faster :) | 11:14 |
| bern` | didn't know of that | 11:14 |
| Poyayan | ok just installed it | 11:14 |
| Poyayan | pretty good so far | 11:14 |
| aardvark | cardador: choice is great thing ! | 11:15 |
| alani | can anyone explain me please the diff between normal boot and rescue ? does ubuntu use the same kernel ? | 11:15 |
| aardvark | rescue is when regular fails, allowing you to specify boot parameters ? | 11:15 |
| xskoulax- | afternoon, morning, evening whatever the case maybe where you're at. I'm wondering where to pass the option to tell ubuntu to ignore my laptops plug and play bios, PnP is disabled at the bios level already, but Ubuntu still warns about stability issues and suggests passing the "nopnpbios" option | 11:15 |
| alani | I keep on getting kernel panics when booting with normal mode | 11:16 |
| alani | with rescue I just suceeded the first time | 11:16 |
| aardvark | alani: hmmm, what does dmesg say ? | 11:16 |
| LinuxJones | xskoulax, I jsut disable it in system bios | 11:16 |
| alani | aardvark, wait a sec, I will just reboot | 11:16 |
| aardvark | alani: u need to troubleshoot ! | 11:16 |
| xskoulax- | LinuxJones: its disabled there but ubuntu still warns about it for some reason | 11:17 |
| LinuxJones | xskoulax, that' odd | 11:17 |

| Poyayan | just a question are the Ubuntu packages i486 or i386? the cd has them all as i386 but the website says it's compiled using the i486 instruction set | 11:17 |
| alani | aardvark: now this is interesting it just worked for the first time booting with the normal mode | 11:18 |
| alani | I guess it could be memory problems | 11:18 |
| MarcN | nice, my intel w2100 wireless works out of the box | 11:19 |
| aardvark | alani: just check dmesg | 11:19 |

| alani | aardvark: have you ever tried the memory test entry in grub ?? | 11:20 |
| alani | I just got an unexpected interrupt | 11:20 |
| aardvark | alani: oops, thats not good | 11:20 |
| alani | aardvark: yep, and it actually is a new system, so certainly not ubuntus fault ;-) | 11:21 |
| cprov | punkass: with "lapic" it just crash earlier ... strange behavior. | 11:21 |
| punkass | did u try nolapic? | 11:22 |
| Poyayan | I know out of the box you can't play mp3's but is there a plugin for rythmbox to allow mp3 playing? | 11:22 |

| === hornbeck|away is now known as hornbeck | ||
| ribo | so just tried ubuntu for the first time. i have to say it's the most polished desktop distro i've seen | 11:26 |
| GotD0t-out | why don't you just use xmms | 11:26 |
| burner | beep-media-player is cooler | 11:27 |
| cardador | Poyayan: go to ubuntu web page, i guess that question is answered in the FAQ | 11:27 |
| ribo | i'm sorta missing galeon though :| and it's not in universe | 11:28 |
| WW | Isn't there some sort of mp3 support available in universe? | 11:28 |
| aardvark | burner: beep-media-player ? | 11:28 |
| Poyayan | well the faq just says that they are looking into the nature of divx, dvd, mp3, etc usage restrictions | 11:30 |
| Poyayan | they say to install mplayer and use totem-xine but nothing about getting rythmbox to work with mp3's | 11:30 |
| dommi | ubuntu is going to stop offering mp3 playback? | 11:30 |
| Poyayan | at least nothing I've been able to fine | 11:30 |
| cardador | Poyayan: i am listening to mp3s with rythmbox | 11:31 |
| dommi | rhythmbox works for me | 11:31 |

| WW | Poyayan: gstreamer0.8-mad is an mp3 plugin. | 11:32 |
| Poyayan | oh | 11:32 |
| Poyayan | ok is there one for ffmpeg (aka divx playback)? | 11:33 |
| cardador | Poyayan: totem plays divx | 11:34 |
