| ogra | eruin: yep, it's not windows | 01:09 |
| __daniel | eruin, just run convert bla.ico bla.png | 01:10 |

| jdub | __daniel: to change the 'preferred' font for arabic, you need to modify /etc/fonts/*.conf | 02:01 |
| __daniel | jdub, oh alright - that'll make learning arabic much easier ;-) | 02:01 |
| axehat | Alright, Nautilus isn't showing the camera as a disk. At the pimp page is says to get libgtk2-perl and libintl-perl before installing pimp. How do I get those files? I'm rather new to Debian and a 'apt-get install libgtk2-perl' didn't come up. | 02:01 |
| ozan | hi, while trying to open a file i get a warning like this "Cannot open Voting_Machine.wmv .... the file might present a security risk to your system. ..." i really don't want to see this warning everytime i try to open a video file. is there a way rm it? | 02:01 |
| alka_trash | It's too bad that gnome didn't use this structure | 02:01 |

| __daniel | jdub, you know how which arabic locale i could choose which is "supported by" gnome? | 02:02 |
| jdub | __daniel: not sure | 02:02 |

| agwibowo | anyone know where i can get latex for ubuntu? | 02:05 |
| __daniel | dawnfading, i chose all the arabic locales (using dpkg-reconfigure locales) in turn and switched them on during login, but a message box always told me "not supported - go away" :) | 02:05 |
| agwibowo | i tried apt-get install latex it does not find it | 02:05 |
| __daniel | agwibowo, try the tetex-* packages | 02:06 |
| LinuxJones | agwibowo, you have to add the universe repository | 02:06 |
| dawnfading | wish i could help daniel, but i'm afraid there's still too much newbie blood running through my vains | 02:07 |
| === soul [~soul@212.83.89.184] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| agwibowo | ok... thanks.. i'll try that | 02:07 |
| dawnfading | veins | 02:07 |
| __daniel | dawnfading, thanks for helping me anyway :-) | 02:07 |
| axehat | I'm trying to install 'pimp', and I added 'deb blah blah blah' to my /etc/apt/sources.list file, but I'm not able to install libgtk2-perl or the other needed library before installing. | 02:08 |
| WW | agwibowo: No, I don't think you need universe for tex. | 02:08 |
| __daniel | axehat, you did sudo apt-get update ? | 02:08 |
| WW | agwibowo: Look for tetex-* in Synaptic. I have tetex-bin, tetex-base and tetex-extra, and latex works fine. | 02:08 |
| axehat | Ah, I was trying 'install' instead of the 'update' | 02:09 |
| __daniel | axehat, sudo apt-get update then sudo apt-get install <your package of desire> | 02:09 |
| axehat | Alright. Thanks a bunch. I was told earlier that Nautilus should be able to browse the files on my digital camera, but it doesn't seem to be able to. Would that be caused by the camera being so new? | 02:10 |
| jdub | axehat: it depends on whether your camera provides a usb-storage interface or not | 02:11 |
| jdub | that's the usual reason for gthumb not working | 02:11 |
| jdub | in which case, you can just use nautilus | 02:12 |
| jdub | but if your camera is not supported by gphoto at all, and doesn't have a usb-storage interface, you're just out of luck :) | 02:12 |
| axehat | It isn't listed under "Disks". How would I know if it has a usb-storage interface? | 02:12 |
| jdub | it should appear under disks if it does ;) | 02:13 |
| jdub | check device manager | 02:13 |
| jdub | see if there's a volume and so on under the usb camera device tree | 02:13 |
| axehat | It comes up fine in device manager. | 02:13 |
| axehat | Hrm, doesn't look like a volume is listed there. | 02:13 |
| __daniel | axehat, try tail -f /var/log/syslog and re-plug-it-in | 02:13 |
| jdub | it might, but what's under it is important :) | 02:13 |
| axehat | USB PTP interface? | 02:14 |

| bern | __daniel: didn't realize i wasn't scrolled to the bottom, i was like wtf | 02:15 |
| axehat | Okay I did the 'tail' and it shows "usb 1-1: new full speed USB device using address 8" | 02:15 |
| Mr_Smiley | haha i do that sometimes ;P | 02:15 |
| __daniel | agwibowo, it is definitely in ubuntu | 02:15 |
| WW | agwibowo: It is main, not universe. My tetex-base even has a little Ubuntu logo next to it. | 02:16 |
| __daniel | axehat, any other lines? anything funny? | 02:16 |
| agwibowo | oh ok | 02:16 |
| bern | i got kde3.2 working on ubuntu now, can anyone recommend some useful aplets ? | 02:17 |
| axehat | It looks like libgphoto tries to do something but looks like it fails. | 02:17 |
| agwibowo | kewl | 02:17 |
| agwibowo | thanks guys | 02:17 |
| agwibowo | i've found latex | 02:18 |
| agwibowo | hehe | 02:18 |
| WW | bern: That's funny... why did you install KDE if you don't know what to do with it? :-) | 02:18 |
| __daniel | axehat, any special message? | 02:18 |
| agwibowo | anymore interesting apps that any of u suggested? | 02:18 |
| __daniel | agwibowo, pdflatex :-) | 02:18 |

| === __daniel 'd recommend the get-rid-of-kde-and-get-gnome-going applet :-) | ||
| bern | WW: i like kde better than gnome | 02:18 |
| bern | WW: just personal preference | 02:19 |
| axehat | A few lines like that. | 02:19 |
| agwibowo | WW: is kile an editor for latex ? | 02:19 |
| WW | bern: Yah, I know... just goofing. | 02:19 |
| WW | agwibowo: Yes. | 02:19 |
| agwibowo | oooo | 02:19 |
| agwibowo | ic. | 02:19 |
| __daniel | axehat, that's another issue (has nothing to do with the camera): just do sudo postalias /etc/aliases | 02:19 |

| Skif | There's always latex-mode :) | 02:20 |
| agwibowo | ehehehe i'm a vim user | 02:20 |
| __daniel | agwibowo, only thing is: it doesnt handle \$ and \% well - it displays them as start of comments | 02:20 |

| axehat | After I did the postalias no other messages come up in the 'tail' | 02:21 |
| WW | Skif: I tried lyx briefly. It seemed semi-wysiwyg. It has its own file format, so it would be tough to share files with co-authors who don't use lyx. | 02:21 |

| TMM | ozan: mldonkey has debian packages on their server | 02:33 |
| Chris | Hmmm... I'm presuming that's it's possible to use Nautilus to browse Windows shares, but I'm not finding any information on how to. The information provided is nice, but being able to generalize it for any shares on that server would be nice too. | 02:34 |

| TMM | MyKq3: in what programs can you and can't you? | 02:35 |

| TMM | mojo_: that's "gnutella is 10x faster than eDonkey" | 02:36 |
| mojo_ | true, but it's worth it | 02:36 |
| TMM | mojo_: gift with gnutella plugins is just as fast as limewire is | 02:36 |
| ozan | what is the debian server address? where can i learn it? | 02:36 |
| mojo_ | go searhc around google and find the PRO version | 02:36 |
| MyKq3 | if i hear sounds only from one program at a time | 02:36 |
| TMM | MyKq3: with *all* programs? | 02:36 |
| MyKq3 | i i hear sounds only from one program at a time ** | 02:36 |
| MyKq3 | TMM, yeah | 02:37 |
| TMM | MyKq3: ok, try running gstreamer-properties and setting all that stuff to "alsa" | 02:37 |
| TMM | MyKq3: wait, that might not work at all | 02:37 |
| TMM | MyKq3: I guess you are bitten by a bug in debian sarge, where it detetcs your soundcard and insmod's the modules for both oss and alsa | 02:38 |
| MyKq3 | TMM, okay .... what do i need to do to make it work | 02:38 |
| TMM | MyKq3: then you'll only be able to use good 'ol oss | 02:38 |
| TMM | MyKq3: you can test it by rmmoding everything that looks like a sound driver | 02:39 |
| TMM | MyKq3: then reload your alsa stuff and see if it's working | 02:39 |
| MyKq3 | TMM, u mean with gstreamer-propertie ? | 02:40 |
| TMM | MyKq3: if it is then you'll either have to do it the proper way or the quick way, the quick way being rmming the oss drivers from /lib/modules/`uname -r`/ the proper way being somehow disabling hotplug to load them, which I have been unable to do | 02:40 |
| LinuxJones | MyKq3, what soundcard do you have ? | 02:40 |
| MyKq3 | hum i think its an old soundblaster | 02:41 |
| TMM | MyKq3: err, no... | 02:42 |
| TMM | MyKq3: I mean with "rmmod" in a terminal | 02:42 |
| MyKq3 | LinuxJones, i can give ya the cardz model number | 02:42 |
| TMM | MyKq3: are you familiar with that? | 02:42 |
| MyKq3 | TMM, not really ... i think i will go back to google to look for some gaides on that | 02:43 |
| LinuxJones | MyKq3, you can do an lsmod and see which sound modules are loaded | 02:43 |
| TMM | MyKq3: well... than this is going to be a bad experience for you | 02:44 |
| TMM | MyKq3: let me see if I can get some workaround for you | 02:44 |
| MyKq3 | TMM, thanks | 02:44 |
| ygnome | If someone has accidentally d/l the 'live' ubuntu CD, is there anyway to run the install from it? | 02:45 |
| LinuxJones | MyKq3, you can then prevent the driver(s) from being loaded by blacklisting them. (although this should have been done already) | 02:45 |
| MyKq3 | LinuxJones, all the SND_xxx r the sounds models .... right ? | 02:45 |
| TMM | MyKq3: those are the "good" modules | 02:45 |
| TMM | MyKq3: the alsa ones | 02:45 |
| LinuxJones | MyKq3, the snd_** ones are alsa drivers | 02:45 |
| TMM | ok, this is what you *could* try | 02:45 |
| TMM | everybody here is going to hate me for suggesting this, but what the hell :) | 02:45 |
| LinuxJones | MyKq3, you need to disable the oss drivers from being loaded as alsa will not work with them loaded | 02:46 |
| TMM | become root, cd /lib/modules/`uname -r`/sound | 02:46 |
| TMM | and mv the "oss" dir someplace safe, root's homedir 'be fine | 02:46 |
| TMM | then run a depmod -A and reboot | 02:46 |
| TMM | this is, if you don't want to learn about blacklisting drivers and the like | 02:47 |

| TMM | well, I never experienced the problem on debian sid... | 02:51 |
| TMM | MyKq3: I'll put it online somewhere, replace your /etc/hotplug/blacklist.d/alsa-base with that one and reboot | 02:51 |
| TMM | MyKq3: might just do it | 02:51 |

| gdarel | OK then I am confused.... | 02:59 |
| TMM | gdarel: that being said, I hate that, so you can just type "sudo passwd" with the user you made witth te ubunto setup, and set a password for root so you can login | 02:59 |
| LinuxJones | gdarel, >> http://www.ubuntulinux.org/support/documentation/faq/root | 02:59 |

| geppy | Debs are interactive, though, so couldn't you install mplayer, and then have click-through EULA's for the codecs? | 04:03 |

| brettcar | Mitario: OS X generally uses LucidaGrande or Helvetica | 04:05 |
| WW | maswan: What did you mean by "bundled codecs"? These guys are talking about w32codecs (I think!) | 04:06 |
| geppy | I'm not planning on submitting this to the devs, if that's why you're worried about it being GPL-compatible. | 04:06 |

| ogra | geppy: you would have the same you have with totem now, you got a mplayer that plays only free formats and everyone will replace it soon with the nonfree stuff | 04:07 |
| maswan | geppy: mplayer is GPL, as is most of the codecs that is in the mplayer package. some are lgpl and some "permissive", which seems to be gpl-compatible | 04:07 |

| maswan | geppy: And ship a COPYING note. Or ship both on the CD. You don't _have_ to make the recipient aware of that. It is up to them. | 04:26 |

| brettcar | Right, what maswan said. | 04:27 |

| brettcar | maswan: Receiving it legally however. | 04:28 |
| geppy | "And you must show them these terms so they know their rights" | 04:28 |
| GotD0t | whats the subject? | 04:28 |
| brettcar | maswan: I don't think you have legal standing to use it if received against the terms of the GPL. | 04:28 |
| geppy | How does that not require them to make you aware of the GPL? | 04:28 |
| brettcar | maswan: But that is for a judge to decide. I believe you may have the right to use it but then distributer will be at fault. | 04:28 |
| brettcar | geppy: If I gave you a music CD, do I have to make you aware that you aren't allowed to copy it? | 04:29 |
| brettcar | geppy: No, because it is common law. The unlicensed redistribution of copyrighted material is unlawful. | 04:29 |
| geppy | brettcar: Following. | 04:29 |
| LinuxJones | brettcar, it depends on which country/state your living in | 04:29 |
| brettcar | LinuxJones: I am referring to the country I am most familiar with, USA. | 04:30 |
| geppy | But I'm saying that if you're required to "show them these terms" when you distribute it, how is the person receiving it not seeing and agreeing to them? | 04:30 |
| LinuxJones | brettcar, I am from Canda and things are much different | 04:30 |
| brettcar | LinuxJones: Oh yes, I know about the CD thing there. | 04:30 |
| LinuxJones | brettcar, err Canada | 04:30 |
| brettcar | LinuxJones: But lets not get into that ;) | 04:30 |
| LinuxJones | brettcar, ya let's not :) | 04:31 |
| geppy | heh | 04:31 |
| brettcar | geppy: The person receiving it is NOT A PART of the GPL. | 04:31 |
| ogra | LinuxJones: you had a nice p2p case there ;) | 04:31 |
| maswan | geppy: what section? | 04:31 |
| brettcar | geppy: The GPL simply requires the *distributor* to make the license available. | 04:31 |
| maswan | brettcar: well, that depends really.. | 04:31 |
| geppy | brettcar: Not only make available; make it know. | 04:31 |
| brettcar | geppy: The GPL simply *can not* effect the recipient because the contract is between the distributor and the copyright holder. | 04:32 |
| LinuxJones | ogra, it should be everywhere :) | 04:32 |
| LinuxJones | ogra, Like the GPL | 04:32 |
| geppy | maswan: What is in what section? | 04:32 |
| maswan | brettcar: we do have some fudge factors about it being resonable assumption of it being redistributed in that way etc. | 04:32 |
| ogra | LinuxJones: oh yes, this judge is great | 04:32 |
| maswan | geppy: that you have to "show them these terms" | 04:32 |
| LinuxJones | ;D | 04:32 |
| geppy | Preamble is where I quoted that part from | 04:33 |
| geppy | just search for "And you must show them these terms so they know their rights." | 04:33 |
| maswan | ah, the preamble | 04:33 |
| brettcar | geppy: The preamble is generally not legally binding. | 04:33 |
| maswan | isn't reflected in the terms section though | 04:33 |
| brettcar | geppy: You are bound only by the terms and conditions of the contract | 04:33 |
| geppy | b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third parties under the terms of this License. | 04:33 |
| geppy | Understood. | 04:33 |
| LinuxJones | ogra, I only have ever made copies of music that I have legally purchased and thankfully I have my .ogg backups when the media gets scratched :) | 04:34 |
| geppy | But that says that you must make anyone that receives it become bound by the GPL. | 04:34 |
| maswan | only that you have to make prominent copyright statements and ship a copy of the license.. | 04:34 |
| brettcar | geppy: No it does not | 04:34 |
| maswan | geppy: definately not | 04:34 |
| brettcar | geppy: It says nothing of the sort, and besides if it did, that kind of contract would be non-binding and illegal. | 04:34 |
| maswan | 5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. | 04:34 |
| brettcar | Pure genius that clause :) | 04:35 |
| geppy | heh | 04:35 |
| ogra | LinuxJones: and of course you store them in .mldonkey/ahred ;) | 04:35 |
| ogra | shared | 04:35 |
| geppy | I'm still bound to make people aware of the license, though, is what I'm saying. | 04:35 |
| brettcar | geppy: No you aren't, such text is found nowhere in the GPL | 04:35 |
| geppy | alright | 04:35 |
| GotD0t | can someone tell me the format for editing crontab? | 04:36 |
| maswan | brettcar: well, you do have to display copyright statements. that | 04:36 |
| geppy | Well, then, back to what I was getting at: It's legally feasible to ship a deb with a click-through EULA and wget for the w32codecs? | 04:36 |
| maswan | 's as close as I get | 04:36 |
| brettcar | In fact the word 'aware' appears no where in the GPL, and the word 'show' only in the preamble. | 04:36 |
| === Mitario [~michiel@sikkes.xs4all.nl] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| brettcar | maswan: Yeah but that isn't the same as a "clickwrap" awaregreement. :) | 04:36 |
| maswan | geppy: well... that would depend on the w32codecs | 04:36 |
| brettcar | To coin a phrase :P | 04:36 |
| GotD0t | i looked in man crontab and it doesn't say anything about the format of the file | 04:36 |
| brettcar | geppy: Probably not | 04:36 |
| LinuxJones | ogra, no way it's their art and I would never do it without their permission, but I should be able to make backups to offset the limitations of the medium that they are distributed on :) | 04:37 |
| maswan | geppy: nothing to do with the gpl, because they aren't under the gpl | 04:37 |
| brettcar | geppy: Because what gave you the right to distribute those codecs? | 04:37 |
| geppy | I'm not distributing, them, though. | 04:37 |
| geppy | That's what I was saying. | 04:37 |
| brettcar | geppy: Unless you have a license to distribute the codecs (or are the copyright holder) then you can't distributed them at all. EULA or not. | 04:37 |
| geppy | I'd be offering a wget for them. | 04:37 |
| brettcar | geppy: Ubuntu can't distribute them in that manner then. | 04:37 |
| geppy | e.g. from the main site. | 04:37 |
| geppy | where you're supposed to get them. | 04:37 |
| joem | GotD0t, http://metawire.org/~joem/configs/crontab | 04:38 |
| maswan | well, then it isn't an eula you should have, but a warning | 04:38 |
| GotD0t | thank you joem... | 04:38 |
| ogra | LinuxJones: who is their ? | 04:38 |
| brettcar | geppy: Depending on how you execute that may or may not be legal. | 04:38 |
| geppy | I agree that it has nothing to do with the GPL, I wasn't referring to it when I asked. | 04:38 |
| brettcar | geppy: But that's how the ms-core-fonts-whatever package used to (still?) worked. | 04:38 |

| GotD0t | joem can you clarify this, i want to make it so that it runs a command every 10 minutes | 04:41 |
| brettcar | geppy: I can't say because I don't know about the license available for w32codecs | 04:41 |
| geppy | brettcar: Alright. | 04:42 |
| brettcar | geppy: It might have a clause "you may not use wget to retrieve these files." | 04:42 |
| geppy | heh | 04:42 |
| geppy | brettcar: And if it doesn't? | 04:42 |
| maswan | brettcar: ehm. basically non-existant. | 04:42 |
| brettcar | geppy: Then I suppose it could be legal. | 04:42 |
| GotD0t | joem: so what would each of the ones be? | 04:42 |
| maswan | brettcar: that is, redistribution is probably not allowed if looking at it strictly. | 04:42 |
| toothpick | I'm trying to play with wine...tough cookie for me. | 04:42 |
| brettcar | maswan: Yes but if you wget'd from the actual official distribution place it could be potentially legal. | 04:43 |
| maswan | brettcar: heh. you want to know what w32codecs is? :) | 04:43 |
| brettcar | maswan: Of course if the actual code is "illegal" (like our favourite DVD encryption method...) its another story | 04:43 |
| brettcar | maswan: Yeah I have a vague idea. See previous message. | 04:44 |
| brettcar | maswan: I know what the package does but I don't know its legal implications. | 04:44 |
| maswan | brettcar: it is dlls etc ripped out of mixed "freely" available installers for various windows codecs. | 04:44 |
| brettcar | Hah | 04:44 |
| maswan | brettcar: ah, no, dvd decryption is in mplayer proper. no need for w32codecs for that | 04:44 |
| === brettcar used it only to illustrate a point | ||

| WW | devscott: If it's for something common like graphics drivers for nvidia or ati, yes. | 05:55 |
| bob2 | devscott: which drivers? | 05:55 |
| devscott | ww, could you point me to a nvidia one? | 05:55 |
| devscott | I have dual monitors that I would really love to use | 05:55 |
| bob2 | devscott: wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto | 05:55 |

| devscott | <-- wife works at HP | 06:05 |
| neuro_ | that's not elaborating :> | 06:06 |
| devscott | they have some issue with some connectivity since they updated some of their asp applications | 06:06 |
| neuro_ | k | 06:06 |
| devscott | umm the form you go through to get to the drivers | 06:07 |
| neuro_ | of course, if they named their driver files more sensibly, you could just browse ftp.hp.com :) | 06:07 |
| devscott | are mostly asp driven, and point to a old server | 06:07 |
| GotD0t | devscott: uhh. still doesnt seem to be working... its giving me 10 kb/s... and its midnight so i dont think theres a lot traffic on their site | 06:07 |

| WW | GotD0t: I'm trying the "Add Printer Wizard": Network Printer, URL is the server printer. | 06:30 |

| srbaker_ | GotD0t, dunno. but i watched it find on the other ubunto box. and i don't think i installed anything special | 06:33 |
| srbaker_ | where do i configure xine for sound? | 06:34 |
| GotD0t | ww: well thats because when two windows boxes share a printer the remote box pulls the driver files from the host | 06:34 |
| GotD0t | ww: and when it cant find them on the host, you have to install them yourself | 06:35 |
| srbaker_ | how do i figure out what format the avi is in? | 06:36 |
| GotD0t | srbaker_ ask the person you got it from | 06:36 |
| srbaker_ | GotD0t, no. | 06:36 |
| GotD0t | srbaker_ of course im assuming you got it from a P2P network | 06:36 |

| Gmail | ok my partioning of my 160hdd is 500mb /boot 50GB / 50GB /home 40GB /music and rest swap like 19.5GB | 07:00 |
| Gmail | what should i change that to? | 07:00 |
| chutwig | that's a whole lot of swap | 07:00 |
| WW | Gmail: You don't need 19.5GB for swap | 07:00 |
| Sensebend | that is a lot of boot too | 07:00 |
| chutwig | he might need to keep like 200 kernels around, though | 07:00 |
| Sensebend | not much home | 07:00 |
| Gmail | chutwig: it will be 1% of my mounted space | 07:00 |
| WW | Gmail: How much RAM do you have? | 07:01 |
| bob2 | Gmail: that's not the point | 07:01 |
| bob2 | Gmail: 19.5GB of swap is a complete waste | 07:01 |
| chutwig | twice physical memory is really the largest swap you should need | 07:01 |
| chutwig | typically 1.5x is more than enough | 07:01 |
| Gmail | 512MB +200MB (not in system right now) | 07:01 |
| Sensebend | so 768MB total? | 07:02 |
| Lathiat | so the most you could possibly want is like 2gig | 07:02 |
| bob2 | the 2x rule is very out of date | 07:02 |
| chutwig | i honestly would not be concerned with splitting the partitions way up | 07:02 |
| Gmail | but i never have used my swap before in debian | 07:02 |
| Sensebend | at the MOST you would want about 2Gigabyte | 07:02 |
| WW | Gmail: 512MB is probably fine for swap, and even then, your system might never touch it. | 07:02 |
| bob2 | 256MB of swap with 512 is plenty | 07:02 |
| Lathiat | and even then, i highly doubt youll ever use much of it, if any | 07:02 |
| Sensebend | 2gigabytes is huge though | 07:02 |
| WW | Is there an echo in here? | 07:02 |
| Gmail | Sensebend: - 64mb for gfx | 07:02 |
| WW | :) | 07:02 |
| chutwig | i think making a single boot partition, then devoting all the rest to / save whatever you're saving for swap | 07:02 |
| bob2 | Gmail: just make a 10GB / and a 150GB /gome | 07:02 |
| chutwig | is a sensible layout | 07:02 |
| Sensebend | ah shared video memory | 07:03 |
| bob2 | you don't need a boot partition anymore | 07:03 |
| Sensebend | I'll agree with bob2 | 07:03 |
| Gmail | wtf is /gnome? | 07:03 |
| Sensebend | he means home | 07:03 |

| neuro_ | i have some magic thirty quid PVR card en route to try out | 07:30 |
| Sensebend | firefox | 07:30 |
| neuro_ | firefox definitely | 07:30 |
| angad | great sensebend, thank you. now that brings me to another question | 07:30 |
| Sensebend | but it all really boils down to personal preference | 07:31 |
| crimsun | angad: "best" is subjective, but there's a reason mozilla-firefox is featured prominently ;) | 07:31 |
| angad | the version that i installed through the synamptic thing was an old version, and so i downloaded the preveiew release | 07:31 |
| neuro_ | i got mythtv running sweet, pity my machine i stotally underpowered to run it in software | 07:31 |
| angad | and i unintalled the old version using the synamptic thing | 07:31 |
| neuro_ | ubuntu itself runs stupidly fast | 07:31 |
| angad | but | 07:31 |
| angad | where are programs supposed to install themselves? and how do i install the new version into the appropriate directory? | 07:31 |
| angad | is there a program files directory like windows? | 07:31 |
| Sensebend | usually /usr/bin | 07:31 |
| angad | is that the home folder? | 07:31 |
| angad | thast where the new version seems to have installed itself | 07:31 |
| neuro_ | or /usr/X11/bin for X stuffzors | 07:31 |
| Lathiat | angad: what are you trying to install | 07:32 |
| angad | firefox | 07:32 |
| angad | firefox 1.0, preview release | 07:32 |
| crimsun | angad: 0.10.1 was reverted to 0.9.3 because 0.10.1 was too unstable | 07:32 |
| crimsun | angad: hence why it shipped with 0.9.3. | 07:32 |
| angad | oh, i see | 07:32 |
| angad | yikes | 07:32 |
| angad | i better get rid of the preview release then | 07:32 |
| neuro_ | i don't think there's enough of a difference between 0.9.3 and 0.10.1 to get too worried about it | 07:32 |

| ygnome | angad: like? | 07:35 |
| neuro_ | depends how you installed them | 07:35 |
| angad | firefox preview release | 07:35 |
| angad | i downloaded an installer file for firefox preview release and installed it into home | 07:35 |
| angad | home/angad | 07:35 |
| neuro_ | i'd assume it has an uninstall script | 07:35 |
| angad | ok, ill check now | 07:35 |
| bob2 | angad: don't install from tarballs into /usr... | 07:36 |
| neuro_ | i've always installed firefox on linux using the distro's own version, not the static build from moz.org | 07:36 |
| angad | what is tarballs | 07:36 |
| neuro_ | a tar archive | 07:36 |
| bob2 | nevermind | 07:36 |
| Sensebend | compressed tars with source in them | 07:36 |
| angad | oh i see | 07:36 |
| neuro_ | or a compressed tar archive, i.e. file.tar.gz, file.tar.bz2, etc | 07:36 |
| Sensebend | compressed with gzip or bzip2 | 07:36 |
| angad | so with a compressed tar file, how am i supposed to install? | 07:36 |

| angad | there is a folder called firefox installer that has all the firefox files in it | 07:38 |
| |progenic| | anybody, how can i play my mp3 from the music player ? it says that i dun have the plugin | 07:38 |
| neuro_ | sounds like a FAQ to me | 07:38 |
| bob2 | |progenic|: wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats | 07:38 |
| angad | also, what is the icon for an eecutable file? is it a brown diamond with "sh" written on it? | 07:38 |
| bob2 | |progenic|: (it's in the faq) | 07:38 |
| |progenic| | thx | 07:38 |
| WW | |progenic|: Maybe install gstreamer0.8-mad (or something like that) | 07:38 |
| Sensebend | |progenic|, sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list | 07:38 |
| neuro_ | angad: that's a shell script | 07:38 |
| Sensebend | uncomment the lines regarding universal | 07:39 |
| Sensebend | and sudo apt-get install xmms | 07:39 |
| angad | neuro, i don't see any executiable files in the folder where i installed firefox. i see the sh file called "firefox" which runs firefox if i click on it | 07:39 |
| angad | where are the executable files placed? | 07:39 |
| |progenic| | is the apt-get will make the shortcut of the program from my applications menu ? | 07:39 |

| |progenic| | since we don't have a root account, then how to set a root password ? | 07:51 |
| |progenic| | anybody ? | 07:51 |
| neuro_ | sudo passwd | 07:51 |
| neuro_ | or sudo su - then do passwd | 07:52 |
| |progenic| | thx | 07:52 |
| joolz | |progenic|: generally if you want to do things like that you could enter a sudo rootshell with `sudo -s` | 07:52 |
| |progenic| | ic | 07:53 |
| neuro_ | each to their own tho | 07:53 |
| FLeiXiuS | neuro_ you wouldn't need to do sudo su - | 07:54 |
| FLeiXiuS | neuro_ it would just be su - | 07:54 |
| Zindar | or "sudo su -" because $HOME and other stuff is better | 07:54 |
| FLeiXiuS | su is a public command for all users | 07:54 |
| neuro_ | not if you don't know the root password | 07:54 |
| Zindar | but you can't su if there is no root password | 07:54 |
| Zindar | but you can use sudo su - | 07:54 |
| FLeiXiuS | neuro_ in that case you 'sudo passwd root' | 07:54 |
| |progenic| | to tell the truth, ubuntu is great | 07:54 |
| |progenic| | i'm satisfied with it so far | 07:54 |
| FLeiXiuS | Indeed. | 07:54 |
| |progenic| | :) | 07:54 |
| neuro_ | FLeiXiuS: i've been using linux for years, it's ok I don't need a tutorial :> | 07:54 |
| FLeiXiuS | neuro_ Have I offended? | 07:55 |
| neuro_ | FLeiXiuS: not in the slightest, note the smiley at end of my last | 07:55 |
| FLeiXiuS | neuro_ just making sure :-) | 07:55 |
| neuro_ | :) | 07:55 |
| neuro_ | i usually do root stuff as root on my own boxen, but sudo on shared boxen to preserve the "whodunnit" trail | 07:55 |
| neuro_ | woo, talking heads | 07:56 |
| FLeiXiuS | The bad part about ubuntu is the default user over SSH has a unencrypted password | 07:56 |
| joolz | FLeiXiuS: huh? | 07:56 |
| FLeiXiuS | so its always good to passwd your_username | 07:56 |
| neuro_ | ssh *never* has unencrypted passwords | 07:56 |
| crimsun | ssh is not unenciphered. | 07:57 |
| FLeiXiuS | neuro_ its plain text | 07:57 |
| FLeiXiuS | easily able to de-encrypt | 07:57 |
| neuro_ | FLeiXiuS: demonstrable proof? | 07:57 |
| crimsun | FLeiXiuS: what are you referring to? | 07:57 |
| FLeiXiuS | crimsun the first user created on ubuntu has an uncrpyted password | 07:58 |
| neuro_ | how so? | 07:58 |
| FLeiXiuS | That I do not know, i haven't checked the install process | 07:58 |
| neuro_ | huh? | 07:58 |
| crimsun | FLeiXiuS: incorrect. It is hashed with a salt and stored where appropriate in the passwd file. | 07:58 |
| FLeiXiuS | But, I have tested it over SSH | 07:58 |
| neuro_ | ssh DOES NOT perform password exchange in the clear | 07:58 |
| joolz | FLeiXiuS: how have you checked it precisely? | 07:59 |
| neuro_ | ubuntu itself doesn't store user passwords in cleartext either | 07:59 |
| FLeiXiuS | of couse it wouldn't, that would be obsurd | 07:59 |
| neuro_ | but you just said ... | 07:59 |
| FLeiXiuS | I just said that the password wasn't encrpted | 07:59 |
| neuro_ | um | 07:59 |
| neuro_ | ok, you've lost me | 07:59 |
| crimsun | FLeiXiuS: where is it unenciphered? | 07:59 |
| neuro_ | and probably everyone else here :) | 07:59 |
| joolz | neuro_: yep :) | 07:59 |
| FLeiXiuS | And that when you've hit SSH it encrypts it only over SSH, therefore its much more easier to obtain by a sniffer | 08:00 |
| neuro_ | ok, go back to the start | 08:00 |
| |progenic| | on my fat32 there are 3 directories that showned with the lock key icon, and i cannot play movie that contains inside that directory, so how to solve this ? anybody ? thx | 08:00 |
| neuro_ | at what point are you seeing this and how did you observe it? | 08:00 |
| FLeiXiuS | Instead of the password being double encrypted its encrypted once at the SSH layer | 08:00 |
| neuro_ | "double encrypted"? | 08:00 |

| FLeiXiuS | woosh | 08:01 |
| FLeiXiuS | Its alright, sorry lol | 08:01 |
| joolz | FLeiXiuS: ah, you mean its only encrypted by ssh and you saw the password with a keylogger? | 08:01 |
| FLeiXiuS | joolz, precisely | 08:01 |
| neuro_ | lol | 08:01 |
| |progenic| | on my fat32 there are 3 directories that showned with the lock key icon, and i cannot play movie that contains inside that directory, so how to solve this ? anybody ? thx | 08:01 |
| joolz | well, that's normal, it's not a ssh flaw | 08:02 |
| neuro_ | name an OS that *doesn't* behave as you've observed ubuntu behaving | 08:02 |
| FLeiXiuS | |progenic|, haven't u said that more then enough? | 08:02 |
| |progenic| | i think nobody have read it, sorry | 08:02 |
| joolz | if anyone has access to your cables and can snigg, you're not safe anymore | 08:02 |
| FLeiXiuS | joolz, but im saying if you sudo passwd USER, then it would add another layer of encryptain | 08:02 |
| neuro_ | |progenic|: i'd delete the movie, i'd wager it's a copyright violation and you shouldn't be watching it anyway :) | 08:02 |
| FLeiXiuS | |progenic|: chmod +x file | 08:02 |
| neuro_ | FLeiXiuS: how would it? | 08:03 |
| joolz | FLeiXiuS: not on fat32 | 08:03 |
| joolz | neuro_: yeah, i'm curious too | 08:03 |
| FLeiXiuS | joolz, explain | 08:03 |
| neuro_ | all running passwd with sudo would do is run it with root privilege | 08:03 |
| |progenic| | it's a fansubs | 08:03 |
| |progenic| | :P | 08:03 |
| |progenic| | anime | 08:03 |
| joolz | ok, i'll try to explain: "i really don't understand" :) | 08:03 |
| neuro_ | it would still be susceptible to a local keylogger | 08:03 |
| |progenic| | all of them haven't been licenced | 08:04 |
| neuro_ | |progenic|: i was only kidding, no need to explain yourself | 08:04 |
| FLeiXiuS | neuro_ ah i see where you are getting at, | 08:04 |
| |progenic| | it's a directory not a file that show the lock key | 08:04 |
| FLeiXiuS | I was mis-comprehending what I was saying my self until I actually thought about it | 08:04 |
| joolz | neuro_: yes, like i said. that's why it's better to work with key files and not allow password logins | 08:04 |
| joolz | FLeiXiuS: aha? :) | 08:04 |
| FLeiXiuS | lol | 08:04 |
| FLeiXiuS | yes | 08:04 |
| neuro_ | FLeiXiuS: i assure you that the password being sent in the ssh exchange would be encrypted strongly enough to survive repeated sniffs | 08:04 |
| joolz | s/\?/\!/ | 08:04 |
| neuro_ | joolz: mmm, ssh keys | 08:05 |
| neuro_ | i (heart) em | 08:05 |
| joolz | but using keyfiles would also protect you from lan sniffers | 08:05 |
| FLeiXiuS | neuro_ I was taking it as, encypt the password locally then over ssh would provide more security | 08:05 |
| joolz | neuro_: yes | 08:05 |
| neuro_ | oooh, apollo 440 | 08:05 |
| neuro_ | FLeiXiuS: no it wouldn't, how could it provide *more* security? | 08:05 |
| joolz | FLeiXiuS: no, if you want local security too, use ssh key files | 08:05 |

| FLeiXiuS | Which method would you prefer? | 08:26 |

| neuro_ | jgeorgeson: ah, cool | 08:39 |
| alejandro_ | so, i'm wondering if its possible to use the debian repositories also? | 08:40 |
| FLeiXiuS | alejandro_ I dont see a reason why not too | 08:40 |
| Zindar | alejandro_: yes... if you are lucky... it is totaly unsupported and might break your computer | 08:40 |
| jgeorgeson | alejandro_: it will probably break as you might have packages with the same name/version from different repos and apt could pick the wrong one | 08:40 |
| Zindar | alejandro_: but WHY? universe has almost everything that debian has | 08:41 |
| FLeiXiuS | hence universe | 08:41 |
| alejandro_ | Zindar, it was just a wondering ;) | 08:41 |
| alejandro_ | jgeorgeson, so, apt-get can't figure out wich one is the right package? | 08:42 |
| jgeorgeson | Zindar: universe is a static snapshot though. for example, kde stuff in universe is older than what's current in unstable | 08:42 |
| jgeorgeson | alejandro_: when you have more then one source with the same version of the same package name it picks randomly. in ubuntu's case, there could be a package rebuilt for ubuntu which is different, but has the same name/version as the debian one | 08:43 |
| jgeorgeson | alejandro_: so if it picks the debian one instead, then things could break | 08:43 |
| Zindar | jgeorgeson: true... I don't do kde | 08:43 |
| jgeorgeson | Zindar: just an example | 08:44 |
| rt | okay, i've just stalled ubuntu. how do I listen to mp3s from it? | 08:44 |

| Zindar | hehe | 08:45 |
| alejandro_ | jgeorgeson, it doesn't take the first repository in the sources.list? | 08:45 |
| rt | what is universe? | 08:45 |
| |progenic| | anybody, how to make xine to produce sound ? i'm installing from synaptic the xine, but later when i played, it doesn't produce the sound, but for my xmms it works ok | 08:45 |

| Zindar | rt: go comuter -> system config -> synaptic | 08:45 |
| jgeorgeson | rt: in synaptic, go to the repositories window and you can enable it there | 08:45 |

| jgeorgeson | Zindar: the ones with universe have all that enabled as well, so it would be redundant to not uncheck them | 08:51 |
| jgeorgeson | rt: you cat hit the Search button on the toolbar and type in gstreamer0.8-mad (for just mp3) or gstreamer0.8-plugins (for all of them) | 08:51 |

| phlog | Dethread was asking for me | 10:06 |
| Dethread | yeah, I didn't know he was in here | 10:06 |
| phlog | where would the packages be on the install CD? | 10:06 |
| Dethread | apt-get knows where they are.... | 10:07 |
| Dethread | you just need to know the package name | 10:07 |
| bob2 | Dethread: gnome is installed by default | 10:07 |
| bob2 | phlog: pool/ | 10:07 |
| Dethread | it crashed during phlog's install | 10:07 |

| fishbulb | cheers bob2 | 10:08 |
| Dethread | phlog, try that | 10:08 |
| phlog | it says ubuntu-desktop doesn't exist | 10:08 |
| pastyhermit | bob2, any ideas? | 10:09 |
| bob2 | pastyhermit: it's not a package | 10:09 |
| Dethread | pastyhermit, universe is not a package, it's a repository | 10:09 |
| bob2 | pastyhermit: that page explains the exact step you need to go through to enable the universe repository | 10:09 |
| phlog | it's also saying that gnome-desktop doesn't exist, even though I see the binaries in pool/main/g | 10:10 |
| bob2 | phlog: did you tell apt about the cd? | 10:10 |
| bob2 | phlog: use "apt-cdrom add" | 10:10 |

| === Gmail bets the ubuntu mailing list will be spammed till version 1 of firefox is in ubuntu warty | ||
| StarScream | thanks for your help guys | 11:31 |
| bob2 | Gmail: it will NEVER be in warty | 11:31 |
| Gmail | bob2: there are some margor bugs in firefox | 11:31 |
| sabmoc | bob2 so how is that going to work, so does everyone need to do a fresh install when the next version of ubuntu come out? | 11:31 |
| bob2 | "spamming" the list about it will make people laugh at you | 11:31 |
| bob2 | Gmail: you've reported these bugs? | 11:31 |
| lifeless | sabmoc: no | 11:32 |
| === ToTo-Away is now known as ToTo | ||
| bob2 | sabmoc: of course not, you upgrade to hoary | 11:32 |
| Gmail | bob2: yes 3 of those bugs are mine | 11:32 |
| sabmoc | lifeless: what will that entail? | 11:32 |
| bob2 | sabmoc: ubuntu retains debian's ability to upgrade between releases | 11:32 |
| === kro` [~user@krovich.dsl2.d-mgtn.labyrinth.net] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| bob2 | sabmoc: it entails running "smart upgrade" in synaptic | 11:32 |
| Gmail | i reported 100s of bug to the mozilla dev team | 11:32 |

| __daniel | *grmbl* what do i do on "Language ar_EG.UTF-8 doesn't exist, using system default."? | 11:32 |
| bob2 | Gmail: well, firefox was downgraded to avoid a bunch of serious bugs in 0.10 | 11:32 |
| joolz | what's the most "ubuntu compliant" gnutella client? | 11:32 |
| bob2 | __daniel: apt-get install locanes ; dpkg-reconfigure locales | 11:32 |
| Gmail | well there is a team bug | 11:32 |
| __daniel | bob2, that's what i did before | 11:32 |
| Gmail | bob2: spelling | 11:32 |
| psyklops | what is "ubuntu compliant"? | 11:32 |
| sabmoc | bob2, the few times Ive had my debian system just roll over and die were almost always during a version upgrade, i really hope ubuntu does a better job of it. | 11:32 |
| bob2 | __daniel: so you generated ar_EG.UTF-8? | 11:32 |
| __daniel | bob2, yes | 11:32 |
| joolz | psyklops: what would fit best in ubuntu | 11:32 |
| bob2 | sabmoc: then you should hvae filed bugs, the vast majority of people have no problems | 11:32 |
| bob2 | Gmail: you cannot ever criticse people about spelling | 11:32 |
| sabmoc | haha | 11:32 |
| psyklops | I just use gtk-gnutella, I have no idea what "fitting" is | 11:32 |
| Gmail | debian is daily updated ubuntu is 6 mothly | 11:32 |
| joolz | bob2: "criticse" :) | 11:32 |
| joolz | ? | 11:32 |
| Gmail | which one is better? | 11:32 |
| bob2 | joolz: sarcasm ;-) | 11:32 |
| Gmail | a bit of both | 11:32 |
| joolz | bob2: yeah :) | 11:32 |
| bob2 | Gmail: please stop talking until you know more about how Debian or Ubuntu work | 11:32 |
| smo | Gmail: debian _unstable_ is updated constantly. debian releases are just as frozen as ubuntu ones | 11:32 |
| bob2 | Gmail: hoary will be updated daily, just as Debian sid is | 11:32 |
| bob2 | Gmail: warty is frozen just like Debian stable releases | 11:32 |
| bob2 | as smo says | 11:32 |
| Gmail | but what about a midle branch | 11:32 |
| bob2 | Gmail: why? | 11:32 |
| === thx1138 [~bdusauso@130.218-201-80.adsl.skynet.be] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| bob2 | a 6 month release cycle is *really* short | 11:32 |
| bob2 | Gmail: if you really want one, you can certainly run it | 11:32 |
| sabmoc | bob2, not to badger badger badger but so, we have to wait for a release that will be six months down the road before we get firefox1.0? | 11:32 |
| Gmail | what i am talking about is a testing branch which is daily updated with out marger bugs that are in sid/hoary | 11:32 |
| jdub | Gmail: ubuntu won't have a 'testing' branch | 11:32 |
| Gmail | why? | 11:32 |
| jdub | Gmail: it'll have stable (currently 'warty') and a development branch (soon to open, called 'hoary') | 11:32 |
| bob2 | sabmoc: hoary will open soon and will have firefox 1.0 | 11:32 |
| jdub | 'hoary' will be regarded as the branch for development and testing | 11:32 |
| bob2 | sabmoc: if you want firefox to be in a supported stable release, you will have to wait 5 months and 28 days, yes | 11:32 |
| === ReX_ [~mario@200.54.6.89] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| bob2 | er, "firefox 1.0" | 11:32 |
| Despair | last time I tried debian's testing, I had more trouble than I did with just unstable + the odd experimental package. *shrug* | 11:32 |
| sabmoc | ok, but for those of us who like to .. ah, yes, ok thats what I wanted to know bob2 | 11:32 |
| Gmail | but you know the sid lg-67 bug? no one want something like that, that why there is a need of a testing branch | 11:32 |
| spiv | bob2: Except it might be firefox 1.1 by then ;) | 11:32 |
| sabmoc | heh | 11:32 |
| Gmail | spiv: firefox 2 | 11:32 |
| === linux_galore [~linux_gal@126.b.004.syd.iprimus.net.au] has left #ubuntu [] | ||
| sabmoc | spiv thats what i was just thinking too | 11:32 |
| sabmoc | i doubt they will go to 2.0 in less than six months | 11:33 |
| bob2 | Gmail: hopefully bugs like that won't make it into a stable release | 11:33 |
| bob2 | Gmail: as much as you want to argue, this is how it is, and I trust the ubuntu folks to know more about RM than you, sorry | 11:33 |
| bob2 | Gmail: just chill and watch what happens | 11:34 |
| Gmail | bob2: people want a newer version of a program but dont want margor bugs like that, thats why a testing branch is perfic for them | 11:34 |
| === azeem [~mbanck@socks-out.lrz-muenchen.de] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| azeem | hi | 11:34 |
| jdub | Gmail: 'hoary' will be the testing (and development) branch. | 11:36 |
| Gmail | will people do common tests on binary before the make it into the hoary branch? | 11:36 |
| sabmoc | well.. look at it this way Gmail if you stick with regular debian you will be lagging a hell of a lot farther behind in your stable release than ubuntu. Thats the whole point (me thinks anyway). | 11:36 |
| azeem | what's the canonical[tm] way to share a printer connected to my warty box on the network to other computers? | 11:36 |
| jdub | sometimes yes, sometimes no | 11:36 |
| azeem | can I do this with g-c-m? | 11:36 |
| jdub | azeem: there's no 'gui' way, you'd have to do it via CUPS | 11:36 |
| sabmoc | i think i might have to call up canonical and pay for some support | 11:36 |
| sabmoc | anyone know if they accept checks? | 11:36 |
| azeem | jdub: thanks | 11:39 |
| Gmail | sabmoc: that why i used testing and made a few backports from experimental | 11:39 |
| jdub | sabmoc: mail jeff.waugh@canonical.com if you're serious ;) | 11:39 |
| lalmeras | there's a gui manager for cups, but i don't know if it can manage sharing | 11:39 |
| jdub | it can't | 11:39 |
| lalmeras | ok, thanks | 11:39 |

| torpor | also, is there a keymap for titanium powerbooks? i can't really use Gnome with this key setup .. alt-tab doesn't work, neither do the page up/dn keys (with fn) | 01:14 |
| torpor | no idea. | 01:14 |
| torpor | i only need SVG support. | 01:14 |

| spiv | torpor: You mean synaptic, the package manager? | 01:42 |
| spiv | And what do you mean by "borked"? | 01:42 |
| torpor | i opened synaptic to use it. i checked the prefs, and turned on the "show package descriptions in main window" option. synaptic 'did something' to its interface in the background. i then turned it back off; thinking that i was just going to leave the prefs as they were (defaults). now i see no package descriptions at all. | 01:43 |
| torpor | i've removed it. | 01:43 |
| torpor | now i want to re-install it, and it tells me i need to put the ubunto cd back in the drive ... i don't have it ; can i use a different source to re-install it? | 01:44 |
| Pizbit | torpor: Put a # infront of the cd entry in /etc/apt/sources.list | 01:44 |

| Micksa | no sense in re-inventing the wheel | 03:22 |
| TomJoad | yes and yes | 03:22 |
| Pizbit | TomJoad: Sounds like a bad burn then or you didn't burn it as an image | 03:22 |
| TomJoad | i have installed sarge on it, so i don't know what the problem could be | 03:22 |
| TomJoad | so it's the burn? | 03:23 |
| bob2 | TomJoad: did it burn ok? | 03:23 |
| TomJoad | yes | 03:23 |
| Pizbit | TomJoad: Those're my guesses. | 03:23 |

| theine | By the eay, I love gnome 2.8, but metacity ***** balls | 03:25 |

| xenonite | so, how can i change the window-resizing behavior? i press ALT+LeftMB to move the window, and i want ALT+RightMB to resize. | 03:27 |
| bob2 | did you find the metacity keybdingins config thing? | 03:27 |
| xenonite | yes | 03:28 |
| theine | xenonite: I would recommend using openbox as your window manager in gnome... | 03:28 |
| bob2 | and you set it there? | 03:28 |
| bob2 | any window manager recommendation is completely subjective | 03:29 |
| StarScream | bob2, since your the laptop expert, do you know how i can change the frequency that the cpu is running at? | 03:29 |
| bob2 | however, metacity is the best integrated into gnome | 03:29 |
| bob2 | StarScream: I'm no expert | 03:29 |
| xenonite | bob2: i found /apps/metacity/general/mouse_button_modifier in gconf | 03:29 |
| theine | bo2: true enough | 03:29 |
| bob2 | StarScream: and that depends on your CPU | 03:29 |
| StarScream | bob2, g3 800\ | 03:29 |

| Kamion | on i386 you can swap caps lock and control; there's an XKB option for it that you can set in XF86Config-4 | 05:17 |

| Kamion | Debian and its derivatives have always set the default runlevel to 2, left 2, 3, 4, and 5 identical by default, and allowed sysadmins to customise the runlevels if they want something finer-grained | 07:10 |
| Kamion | reserving a runlevel for X is a pretty strange distinction these days, really; there are plenty more important things I could use them for, like "no, silly laptop, you're only going to be running for half an hour on the train, don't start up everything" | 07:11 |
| jgeorgeson | neat, added it to 2, will see next time i reboot | 07:11 |
| jgeorgeson | how do you specify runlevel at the grub menu? | 07:11 |

| Kamion | Matt|: we haven't kicked off hoary yet, will be happening soon | 08:52 |
| Kamion | that's all the help I can give you right now :-) | 08:52 |
| Matt| | ok | 08:52 |
| Matt| | Kamion, so can I download an xchat package to update it? | 08:52 |
| Kamion | you could build it from upstream source | 08:52 |
| Matt| | it cannot be done through apt? | 08:53 |
| jvs | I couldnt even reinstall grub...*grml | 08:53 |
| Kamion | no | 08:53 |
| jvs | wtf happend... | 08:53 |
| Matt| | hmmm | 08:53 |
| Matt| | that is a shame | 08:53 |
| Kamion | Matt|: hoary is where we'll be putting newer packages. | 08:53 |
| Matt| | Kamion, ok cool | 08:53 |
| Kamion | and hey, it's only six months between releases | 08:53 |
| jvs | :) | 08:53 |
| Kamion | note, though, that hoary will be VERY VERY UNSTABLE for the first week or two at least | 08:53 |
| Matt| | Kamion, sure but xchat is like 3 versions behind and i am worried about security problems | 08:53 |
| Kamion | Matt|: we'll provide security updates to the version in warty. | 08:54 |
| tseng | Matt|: ubuntu will backport any securit fixes | 08:54 |
| Matt| | tseng, Kamion right thanks | 08:54 |
| jvs | Matt|, why not use another irc client meanwhile? | 08:54 |
| Matt| | jvs, i like xchat ;p | 08:54 |
| Matt| | jvs, i'm not much of a geek | 08:54 |
| Matt| | so i like user friendly ones | 08:55 |

| pantz_ | /usr/sbin/chroot: /bin/bash: No such file or directory | 08:55 |
| pantz_ | i guess coz i am never running as root to start with ? | 08:56 |
| jvs | pantz_, you must have misse smthg then | 08:56 |
| jvs | *missed | 08:56 |
| Kamion | pantz_: you can only chroot into something that looks a bit like a Linux system itself. | 08:56 |

| === Matt| [~matt@81-178-76-139.dsl.pipex.com] has left #ubuntu ["Leaving"] | ||

| === jvs gets some pizza | ||
| Kamion | the live CD is very strange; it uses bizarre overlay filesystems and things like that that aren't in the standard Ubuntu kernel | 08:57 |
| pantz_ | bah its ok - i will just write it to cd and boot from it - thanks anyhoo | 08:57 |
| Kamion | I doubt it's possible to do what you're trying to do, to be honest | 08:57 |

| Matt| | can someone explain what the ubuntu-base package is? | 09:44 |
| simoriah | Just installed Ubuntu. Been using linux since the 2.0.X days... when I try to dhclient ath0, I get "sit0: unknown hardware address type 776" and eventually, "No DHCPOFFERS received." What's the deal with this sit0 error? | 09:44 |
| Matt| | i want to uninstall some packages but it says that ubuntu-base depends on them | 09:44 |
| Matt| | can i go ahead and remove them both? | 09:44 |
| simoriah | if I had to guess, removing ubuntu-base would probably be a REALLY bad idea. | 09:45 |

| Matt| | geppy, so what is the deal with that | 09:45 |
| Matt| | i cannot remove vim from my system? | 09:45 |
| ogra | blahrus: follow the last block in this howto and you can install mplayer with one command: http://wiki.ubuntulinux.org/RestrictedFormats | 09:45 |

| ericsp | Hi, I installed ubuntu and everything went OK. But, when I started evolution and copied my old evolution 1.4-stored emails to the new directory, they were not listed in Evolution 2.0. Does anyone know how to imports the old evolutions datafiles into the new one?? | 09:54 |
| alexey | Matt|: Yes. The simplest way is just uncomment it (or to check the item in Synaptic) | 09:55 |
| geppy | I think that you need to manually place the files into the new directory structure, if you can figure out how. | 09:55 |
| sap | on a multi boot machine (debian and ubuntu) i want to share my home partitiion. Is there a method to allow different config files e.g. ~/.xsession to be used based on which OS is booted? | 09:55 |

| Matt| | alexey, ok this is much cooler | 09:55 |
| blahrus | geppy, you still around? | 09:56 |
| Matt| | thanks | 09:56 |
| alexey | Matt|: you're welcome | 09:56 |
| ericsp | seb128, should i copy them to the .evolution file before startup? I tried the import option, but that one did not work. | 09:56 |
| geppy | blahrus: yes. | 09:56 |
| Matt| | ericsp, don't copy them into the folder | 09:56 |
| blahrus | geppy: did you install with those dir? | 09:56 |
| Matt| | you should try and find a way to use the import function | 09:56 |

| toyowheelin | blahrus, you amd_64 also? | 09:58 |
| Matt| | ericsp, if seb128's method doesn't work, then you can import them file by file, using the .mbox files | 09:59 |

| toyowheelin | blahrus, they kinda short handed us on features | 09:59 |

| TheCan | now i enter it but it fails to start any app from gnome directly | 11:04 |
| blahrus | toyowheelin: but it has no gui | 11:04 |
| toyowheelin | its listed as bittorrent-gui | 11:04 |
| blahrus | do you have multiverse repos on also? | 11:04 |
| |progenic| | excuse me, can i download the jdk from sun then install the bin file without using the one that is inside apt ? | 11:05 |
| === __daniel [~daniel@td9091c2c.pool.terralink.de] has joined #ubuntu | ||

| toyowheelin | yes blahrus | 11:05 |

| toyowheelin | I can turn em off and see what I get | 11:05 |

| alexey | TheCan, why you want to run something as root at all? | 11:05 |
| TheCan | alexey, for example i select network settings from the gui in gnome.... | 11:05 |
| blahrus | toyowheelin: I still do not see it | 11:06 |

| toyowheelin | blahrus, my bad....I typed in bittornado | 11:06 |
| toyowheelin | not bittorrent | 11:06 |
| alexey | TheCan, you will be asked for the user password and the application will be run with root rights using sudo | 11:06 |
| TheCan | alexey, well yes this happens | 11:07 |
| TheCan | alexey, but whatever password i enter it does not work | 11:07 |
| TheCan | when i launch the simple terminal and do "su" and enter the password it works | 11:07 |
| ogra | TheCan: it's your PW | 11:07 |
| alexey | TheCan, you should use the first user you created and password for that user. | 11:07 |
| __daniel | hai ogra | 11:07 |
| blahrus | toyowheelin: got it | 11:07 |
| blahrus | thanks :) | 11:07 |

| ogra | hei __daniel ;) | 11:07 |
| TheCan | ah ic i need to enter the user's password not the root passwd? | 11:07 |
| alexey | TheCan, if you want to use it with other user you should give sudo rights to that user | 11:07 |
| alexey | TheCan, yes, *user* password. | 11:08 |
| ogra | TheCan: exactly | 11:08 |
| TheCan | ah ok now i propably got the point, thx!! | 11:08 |
| alexey | TheCan, and having root disabled is a good idea. | 11:08 |
| TheCan | yeah i just read about it in the faqs | 11:08 |
| toyowheelin | blahrus, bittornado should still work fine | 11:08 |
| blahrus | how do you get it to load? | 11:08 |
| toyowheelin | umm | 11:08 |
| blahrus | it does not show up in the menu for some reason | 11:08 |
| toyowheelin | good question | 11:08 |
| |progenic| | excuse me, can i download the jdk from sun then install the bin file without using the one that is inside apt ? | 11:09 |
| alexey | blahrus, run from command line btdownload-gui *torrent* | 11:09 |
| |progenic| | and how can i install it ? | 11:09 |
| ccox | progenic | 11:09 |
| TheCan | alexey, when i gave it a root passwd, is the root account enabled from now on? if so how can i disable it again? | 11:09 |
| toyowheelin | blahrus, it shows up in kde | 11:09 |
| ccox | just apt-get install java-package | 11:09 |
| |progenic| | then ? | 11:09 |
| ccox | then make-jpkg sun-blahblahblah.bin | 11:09 |
| alexey | blahrus, it does not have common GUI, only small window for every download | 11:09 |
| ccox | then just dpkg -i package | 11:09 |
| |progenic| | i cannot find the 1.5.0 | 11:09 |
| blahrus | alexey: i know how it works | 11:09 |
| ccox | its easy | 11:09 |
| blahrus | alexey: just not seening how to load it | 11:10 |
| ogra | |progenic|: do you need 1.5 or would be 1.4 enough ? | 11:10 |
| ccox | the make-jpkg will make a deb out of the sun binary package | 11:10 |
| alexey | TheCan, in /etc/shadow root line should look like root:*:...., not root:<encrypted password>:... as you have now | 11:10 |
| toyowheelin | blahrus, its called bittorrent client under the internet catagory in the K menu for me | 11:10 |
| HomoAcridien | Do you know a jabber client supporting transport under ubuntu ? | 11:10 |
| __daniel | HomoAcridien, file transport? | 11:11 |
| alexey | blahrus, either run it from command line, either click on torrent in browser | 11:11 |
| |progenic| | i'm downloaded the one from sun, with the netbeans package | 11:11 |
| HomoAcridien | gaim does not | 11:11 |

| ccox | |progenic| are you just trying to install the java jdk? | 11:12 |
| __daniel | HomoAcridien, ok... sorry i meant "file transport" | 11:12 |
| ccox | sdk? | 11:12 |
| alexey | TheCan, encrypted password? Yes. Change it to *. | 11:12 |
| TheCan | ok | 11:12 |
| ogra | TheCan: there is a wiki how to do it right.... | 11:12 |
| HomoAcridien | __daniel: don't mind i didn't precise | 11:12 |
| |progenic| | the package is with the netbeans | 11:12 |
| __daniel | HomoAcridien, but what is "protocol transport"? | 11:12 |
| |progenic| | if i download from the sun | 11:12 |
| ccox | |progenic| if you are you do not have to run the .bin that you download | 11:12 |
| alexey | TheCan, it is between first and second semicolons in line | 11:12 |
| ogra | TheCan: http://wiki.ubuntulinux.org/RootSudo | 11:12 |
| alexey | TheCan, do not touch anything after the second semicolon | 11:12 |
| ccox | if you apt-get install java-package you can get make-jpkg to make debs from it | 11:12 |
| ccox | and you just install those debs manually | 11:13 |
| HomoAcridien | __daniel: an appelation to describe the way jabber servers communicate with MSN AIM ICQ | 11:13 |
| TheCan | ah thx! | 11:13 |
| |progenic| | then how to install from bin ? this package is with the netbeans IDE | 11:13 |
| blahrus | alexey: that worked :) | 11:13 |
| HomoAcridien | Gaim has an ugly logo | 11:13 |
| HomoAcridien | :-) | 11:13 |
| TheCan | |progenic|, you can install netbeans via the jar installer | 11:13 |
| TheCan | at least 3.6 | 11:13 |
| TheCan | in your user's homedir | 11:13 |

| alexey | travis, what do you mean by "DNS resolution"? | 11:16 |
| ccox | it sais jabber room list works again | 11:16 |

| merriam | alexey: what everyone else means by it | 11:16 |

| Matt| | ogra, that doesn't work: it can't find the package | 11:50 |
| __daniel | Matt|: this one was on the list: sudo apt-get install prelink && sudo nice -15 prelink -Rmva | 11:51 |
| Matt| | __daniel, it may be that I do not have apt set up properly | 11:52 |
| Matt| | E: Package prelink has no installation candidate | 11:52 |

| Matt| | __daniel, I am very new to ubuntu and debian, can you tell me the best way to set up apt sources? | 11:53 |
| __daniel | Matt|, you have universe in /etc/apt/sources.list ? | 11:53 |
| __daniel | Matt|, fire up synaptic | 11:53 |
| Matt| | __daniel, I do not have universe | 11:53 |
| __daniel | Matt|, add it | 11:53 |
| nickers | someone should setup a list of all these fringe apt sources | 11:53 |
| === Bohhh thinks he will have to switch from kde to gnome for using ubuntu properly :( | ||
| __daniel | Matt|, in the package sources | 11:53 |
| Matt| | __daniel, are there any disadvantages with adding universe? | 11:54 |
| ogra | Matt|: http://wiki.ubuntulinux.org/SynapticHowto | 11:54 |
| __daniel | Matt|, not really | 11:54 |
| Matt| | not really/ | 11:54 |
| Matt| | ? | 11:54 |
| ogra | Bohhh: nice step ;) | 11:54 |
| __daniel | Matt|, you just have to download additional package lists each time | 11:54 |
| Matt| | __daniel, there is a warning in the sources file | 11:55 |
| Bohhh | ogra, really? i think kde is superior to gnome these das :) | 11:55 |
| Bohhh | days | 11:55 |
| __daniel | Matt|, what about? | 11:55 |

| nickers | hey is there a way to remove something without killing the dependecies? IE Evolution....its dependent on ubuntu-desktop | 11:55 |
| Pluk | ubuntu-desktop is just a container | 11:56 |
| nickers | is there a emerge -C evolution type thingie | 11:56 |
| ogra | Bohhh: never :) but lets not argue about taste ;) | 11:56 |
| Pluk | if you remove that package it wonr break anything | 11:56 |
| Matt| | __daniel, there will be no updates to packages in universe? | 11:56 |

| GotD0t | you can remove evolution with no ill efects to any of its dependencies... but you cannot remove a dependency to an app without any ill effects to the app | 11:56 |
| __daniel | Matt|, well, you just stick to the ubuntu sources and you'll be alright | 11:56 |
| nickers | well i just want evolution data server to stop running | 11:56 |
| nickers | its killing me | 11:56 |
| Matt| | why would anyone remove evolution? | 11:56 |
| Matt| | ah | 11:57 |
| nickers | 54MiB taken of my memory | 11:57 |
| nickers | i love Evo...at work...at home Tbird is enough for simple imap | 11:57 |
| __daniel | Matt|, and stick to the link ogra gave you: http://wiki.ubuntulinux.org/SynapticHowto | 11:57 |
| Matt| | __daniel, what do you mean, stick to it? | 11:57 |
| __daniel | nickers, there was a thread about it months ago on planet.gnome.org 54 mb isnt quite right | 11:57 |
| spiv | nickers: I doubt it's actually taking 54Mb... how are you measuring that? | 11:57 |
| __daniel | Matt|, read it, use it, learn from it ;-) | 11:57 |
| nickers | top | 11:58 |
| Matt| | __daniel, i prefer to edit the config file if possible ;) | 11:58 |
| nickers | or more precise gnome-system-monitor | 11:58 |
| spiv | nickers: http://www.livejournal.com/users/keybuk/2004/08/02/ | 11:58 |
| spiv | nickers: Right, that's not at all accurate, as that that URL helps explain. | 11:58 |
| ogra | Matt|: it's described there too :) | 11:58 |
