| Kamion | stuNNed: use the Ubuntu 'universe' repository instead if you want stuff not in the supported set; it's Debian compiled against Ubuntu, basically | 01:04 |

| ogra | kapputu: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/h/hotplug/hotplug_0.0.20040329-11ubuntu10_all.deb | 01:31 |
| |trey| | Should really remove traces of hotplug... won't really help if you keep the old config etc :/ | 01:32 |
| ogra | thoreauputic: apt-get didnt work :( | 01:32 |
| kapputu | ok downloaded | 01:32 |
| |trey| | ogra, if apt didn't work, he's in a world more hurt then just hotplug :/ | 01:32 |
| kapputu | ok reinstalling ubuntu is easier ? | 01:33 |
| ogra | |trey|: lets try reinstalling first | 01:33 |
| === andril__ [~andril@adsl-3-164-67.mia.bellsouth.net] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| kapputu | I'm really tired of reconfiguring everything in each distro I use | 01:33 |
| |trey| | kapputu, yes... very much so... you have no idea really how many things are broken... | 01:33 |
| ogra | kapputu: sudo dpkg -i <thefileyoudownloaded> | 01:33 |
| |trey| | kapputu, thats why I have an rpm based /etc/ and dpkg /etc/ on different partitions all the time ;) | 01:34 |
| mirak_ | testing | 01:34 |
| ogra | |trey|: apt-get just didnt change anything... | 01:34 |
| kapputu | still doesnt show up in etc/init.d | 01:34 |
| ogra | kapputu: /etc ? | 01:35 |
| kapputu | yep it's in etc | 01:35 |
| kapputu | there is also a hotplug.d | 01:35 |
| |trey| | kapputu, look in man dpkg for a command that says something about overwriting config file... | 01:35 |
| kapputu | can I do a purge and install ? | 01:36 |
| thoreauputic | or it might be worth trying sudo dpkg-reconfigure hotplug | 01:36 |
| ogra | kapputu: there depend a lot of things on hotplug....purge will remove a lot i guess, but you can try | 01:37 |
| kapputu | it's still broke | 01:37 |
| ogra | thoreauputic: not sure it brings init.d back | 01:37 |
| |trey| | kapputu, yes, will remove config files... still need to see what the "overwrite" command is though... else it will still assume config files shouldn't be recreated/changed... | 01:37 |
| kapputu | what diff does it make | 01:37 |
| kapputu | no purge removes configuration files | 01:38 |
| |trey| | ogra, you can ignore depends... | 01:38 |
| kapputu | -P or --purge removes everything, including configura- | 01:38 |
| kapputu | tion files | 01:38 |
| |trey| | kapputu, yes... but -i alone won't put them back... trust me on this, its skrewed me up several times... | 01:38 |
| ogra | |trey|: so tell us.... | 01:39 |
| |trey| | ogra, ugh, I said to read the dpkg man page :/ | 01:39 |
| |trey| | what more do you want ;) | 01:39 |
| thoreauputic | for init.d - man update-rc.d | 01:39 |
| |trey| | Even said what to look for :/ | 01:39 |
| ogra | |trey|: thats what i can hear on every other distro :( | 01:40 |
| kapputu | ok wait I'm looking | 01:40 |
| kapputu | here are my concerns | 01:40 |
| ogra | |trey|: rtfm....i think ubuntu is a bit more and if i know certain tings i help ;) | 01:41 |
| kapputu | I know people are trying to make this better and it's voluntary work | 01:41 |

| djtansey | anyone here used i855? i am trying to get my ibm x40 to display to an external monitor at a different resolution as my 1024x768 laptop lcd. preferably so the laptop screen turns off and the external comes up at 1280x960 | 01:46 |
| devolve | jdub: it was a jumper setting on the hard drive... I had moved it from default setting. | 01:46 |
| kapputu | no it's on the same paritition | 01:46 |
| sabdfl | djtansey: let me know if you get that right | 01:47 |

| === mirak_ [~mirak@adsl-68-73-205-155.dsl.sfldmi.ameritech.net] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| sabdfl | there's a utility somewhere that let's you play with it, i855-crt or something | 01:47 |
| sabdfl | but its voodoo afict | 01:47 |
| djtansey | sabdfl: i'm using i855crt -- works well. i have the external coming up. but only at the same resolution as my x40 lcd. and only with both up at the same time. | 01:47 |
| kapputu | ok ogra, I get a config screen asking me what I wanted loaded on boot | 01:47 |
| sabdfl | ok | 01:48 |
| sabdfl | you got further than me then | 01:48 |
| kapputu | i select everything for now ? | 01:49 |
| djtansey | sabdfl: what is your chipset? | 01:49 |
| sabdfl | x40 as well | 01:49 |
| jdub | djtansey: that's all you can do atm (same res, cloned) | 01:49 |
| ogra | kapputu: not sure what the ubuntu default is.....try auto | 01:49 |
| jdub | djtansey: you can run the monitor at another res, but X doesn't know about it ;) | 01:50 |
| jdub | it really needs in-server support to work well | 01:50 |
| ogra | LinuxJones: nice page, but wont work without a file in init.d | 01:50 |
| djtansey | jdub: there's nothing i can do -- even using something other than i855crt (i'd even be happy to restart X if i could make that work) | 01:50 |
| jdub | djtansey: nup, not atm :| | 01:51 |
| |trey| | jdub, sup man :) keeping yourself busy? ;) | 01:51 |
| ThreeDayMonk | djtansey: what is | 01:51 |
| ThreeDayMonk | oops, wrong key :-) | 01:51 |
| |trey| | jdub, how much longer you think it'll be till dist/hoary is usable? | 01:51 |
| kapputu | PCI display devices ? | 01:51 |
| jdub | |trey|: hi, yeah | 01:51 |
| ogra | kapputu: nope | 01:51 |
| djtansey | sabdfl: then you should be able to plug it in and type sudo i855crt on 1024x768@75 and it will come up in a second or two | 01:51 |
| jdub | |trey|: dunno, but we'll announce it when it's dogfoodable | 01:51 |
| kapputu | ok done | 01:51 |
| |trey| | jdub, good good, and yay :) | 01:51 |
| kapputu | still not in init.d | 01:52 |
| jdub | sabdfl: i have a little desktop icon for running it, which changes the icon and label and stuff :) | 01:52 |
| ogra | kapputu: init.d ? | 01:52 |

| devolve | The last installation I did was Absolutely Wonderful -- I answered a couple questions, left the house and it was installled when I got back... | 01:53 |
| jdub | |trey|: it's not *yet*, it just didn't break as badly as we thought | 01:53 |
| |trey| | jdub, ahh... I don't usually sign up for lists, too hard to follow :( | 01:53 |
| sabdfl | ihoary apparently didn't break too badly so far in the merge up to sid, BUT | 01:53 |
| sabdfl | we still have some bg components to go in | 01:53 |
| sabdfl | most notably x.org | 01:53 |
| sabdfl | and that will cause carnage | 01:53 |

| ThreeDayMonk | I just figured out multiple monitor setups on my configuration | 01:54 |
| |trey| | sabdfl, shouldn't be THAT bad surely? just make x-window-system-core depend on the new stuff, and conflict the old stuff etc :/ | 01:54 |
| djtansey | jdub: i see. seems hard to believe this many years into linux desktop devel you still can't do that. i remember back in 97,98 and 99 we felt we were on the brink of matching up to the basic expected feature set, even if it wouldn't be user friendly. seems we're still "on the brink." :) | 01:54 |
| ThreeDayMonk | have a look: http://po-ru.com/images/triple-monitors.jpg | 01:54 |
| kapputu | yep I believe something got corrupted miserably | 01:54 |
| LinuxJones | kapputu, what kind of filesystem do you have on your /usr directory ? | 01:54 |
| jdub | djtansey: it's a chipset specific issue | 01:54 |
| kapputu | ext2 | 01:54 |
| ogra | LinuxJones: we downloaded a new hotplug package and installed with dpkg with any imaginable option.... | 01:55 |
| devolve | kapputu, I read alot of stuff online and tinkered and messed with stuff and worked with people online, but I really think I learned the most when I volunteered my time to work on a community project with other experienced users | 01:55 |
| djtansey | ThreeDayMonk: allows intel (i8xx) chips to work with external displays. | 01:55 |
| kapputu | just a quick question | 01:55 |
| jdub | djtansey: with other chipsets, you can multihead, clone, flick with the keyboard, etc. | 01:55 |
| sabdfl | |trey|: YOU do it then :-) | 01:55 |
| |trey| | kapputu, ahh, let this be a lesson to use a journelled fs from now on :) | 01:55 |
| brettcar | ThreeDayMonk: All those nice monitors but that half size keyboard? :P | 01:55 |
| djtansey | jdub: not just driver? vesa wouldn't help? | 01:55 |
| sabdfl | it's going to be risky | 01:55 |
| kapputu | hmm I would like to do that | 01:55 |
| ThreeDayMonk | brettcar: full size keyboard | 01:55 |
| kapputu | I am a good programmer | 01:55 |

| sabdfl | jdub: thanks will try when i can find a projector | 01:58 |
| jdub | kapputu: it writes in a safe manner | 01:59 |
| |trey| | kapputu, basically, periodically, it will take snapshots of your fs, and store that data so it knows where to put things back after curruption etc... | 01:59 |
| kapputu | safe manner = ? | 01:59 |
| kapputu | but what if the snapshot area gets corrupted ? | 01:59 |
| jdub | kapputu: better that you read about how it's done than getting lame, too-short explanations here | 01:59 |

| ogra | kapputu: partitioning is a philosophical thing ;) | 02:01 |

| kapputu | ok if I run out of space, how do I add more space ? | 02:03 |
| cardador | kensai: that way it installs to .themes, you just need to move it to .icons | 02:03 |
| ogra | __daniel: after a fsck and a reinstall of hotplug .... and probably certain other things ? | 02:03 |
| LinuxJones | kapputu, that might be the best thing. Try to keep your /usr/ & /var & /home on a seperate partition if you can :) | 02:03 |

| kapputu | back then I was stuck with Windows :((((((( | 02:04 |
| |trey| | kapputu, I did, nana :) | 02:04 |
| kapputu | I have 4.7 | 02:05 |
| |trey| | kapputu, ahh, I was using Debian when I was 17 :/ | 02:05 |
| cardador | kensai: now you should be able to pick your new icon theme | 02:05 |
| kapputu | I can get more from a FAT partition | 02:05 |
| ThreeDayMonk | cardador: I have an nVidia dual-head card in the AGP slot, and an ATI card in one of the PCI slots | 02:05 |
| kapputu | I installed RedHat thrice | 02:05 |
| cardador | ThreeDayMonk: ok thanks | 02:05 |
| kapputu | I couldnt get Debian | 02:05 |
| ThreeDayMonk | actually, the ATI has DVI and VGA out, and I think that I could connect a fourth monitor... | 02:05 |
| kensai | cardador: Thanks it works just fine | 02:05 |
| kapputu | I couldnt get good books | 02:05 |
| cardador | kensai: np :) | 02:05 |
| kensai | ThreeDayMonk: Thanks too | 02:05 |
| kapputu | I couldnt get my graphics card detected | 02:05 |
| kapputu | I gave up | 02:05 |
| |trey| | kapputu, I learned everything I know from about 3 years of idling in #debian :/ | 02:06 |
| ThreeDayMonk | cardador: I'm going to write it up on the wiki when the wiki is ready | 02:06 |
| LinuxJones | kapputu, use as much as you can spare from your win partition. You won't need that anyways one you get Ubuntu up and running ;D | 02:06 |
| kapputu | cool , I don't have that time now :( | 02:06 |
| WW | ThreeDayMonk: I've never used multiple monitors. Does it act like one very wide monitor? | 02:06 |
| cardador | ThreeDayMonk: and what do you do to enable xinerama, just add some lines in XF86config? | 02:06 |
| kapputu | yep it's been a while since I went there | 02:06 |
| |trey| | WW, basically... yes... | 02:06 |
| |trey| | WW, when its working at least ;) | 02:07 |
| ThreeDayMonk | hang on, I'll up my XF86Config-4 file for your viewing pleasure | 02:07 |
| WW | If you drag a window, will it appear half in one window and half in the other? | 02:07 |
| ThreeDayMonk | yes | 02:07 |
| |trey| | WW, yup | 02:07 |
| WW | ooooh.... | 02:07 |
| ThreeDayMonk | but it gets laggy over the agp-pci transition | 02:07 |

| kapputu | primary is hda1 | 02:08 |
| |trey| | kapputu, fdick -l | 02:08 |
| cardador | ThreeDayMonk: but to connect only 2 monitors, do i need also 2 cards? | 02:08 |
| kapputu | logical is hda5 ? | 02:08 |
| |trey| | kapputu, fdisk -l | 02:08 |
| |trey| | bad typo :o | 02:08 |
| ThreeDayMonk | cardador: not if you have a dual-head card | 02:08 |
| cardador | hmm i have to figure out that... | 02:08 |
| kapputu | can't open /dev/hda | 02:08 |
| |trey| | kapputu, yeah, umm, thats bad | 02:09 |
| kapputu | oops | 02:09 |
| kapputu | even that's sudoed ? | 02:09 |
| |trey| | kapputu, I didn't think so, but maybe? | 02:09 |
| thoreauputic | sudo fdisk -l | 02:09 |
| ThreeDayMonk | cardador: have a look at this: http://po-ru.com/files/XF86Config-4 | 02:09 |
| cardador | ok | 02:09 |
| ThreeDayMonk | I'm using the Free ATI driver, and the binary nVidia one | 02:09 |
| kapputu | ok I made a change in my fsta | 02:09 |
| kapputu | ok I made a change in my fstab | 02:09 |
| cardador | ThreeDayMonk: how can i know if my card is dual headed?? | 02:10 |
| kapputu | how do I effect that change without restarting | 02:10 |
| |trey| | cardador, it'll have 2 connectors on it... | 02:10 |
| ThreeDayMonk | heh | 02:10 |
| cardador | hmm ok :) | 02:10 |
| cardador | it has a 2nd connector, but it seems different | 02:11 |
| cardador | maybe tvout | 02:11 |
| === __daniel [~daniel@td9091b13.pool.terralink.de] has left #ubuntu [] | ||
| ThreeDayMonk | is it small and round? | 02:12 |
| kapputu | how do I effect a change in my /etc/fstab without restarting | 02:12 |
| |trey| | cardador, yeah, its not dual headed if your monitor can't plug into that one too... :/ | 02:12 |
| cardador | ThreeDayMonk: no, rectangular and medium sized | 02:12 |
| cardador | |trey|: ok | 02:12 |
| ThreeDayMonk | white? | 02:12 |
| cardador | yap | 02:12 |
| ThreeDayMonk | DVI then | 02:12 |
| cardador | so that means no 2nd monitor | 02:12 |
| |trey| | Digital Video In? | 02:12 |
| ThreeDayMonk | so you have a VGA and a DVI connector - you could probably do it | 02:12 |

| |trey| | brettcar, damnit, shut up you ;) | 02:13 |
| |trey| | brettcar, jk, thanks :) | 02:13 |
| kapputu | hey guys can you see me ? | 02:13 |
| |trey| | kapputu, nope :( | 02:14 |
| kapputu | lol | 02:14 |
| ThreeDayMonk | brettcar: what - poking your finger in someone's eye? :-) | 02:14 |
| kapputu | thanks | 02:14 |
| brettcar | kapputu: Nope | 02:14 |
| brettcar | kapputu: ;) | 02:14 |
| brettcar | ThreeDayMonk: What did I do now? | 02:14 |
| ThreeDayMonk | digital visual interface | 02:14 |
| cardador | kapputu: mount -a [-t|-O] ... : mount all stuff from /etc/fstab | 02:14 |
| |trey| | brettcar, lagging somewhat? :) | 02:14 |
| brettcar | My brain is | 02:14 |
| |trey| | brettcar, heh :) | 02:14 |
| brettcar | but uhm | 02:14 |
| brettcar | right fstab | 02:14 |
| brettcar | kapputu: Try: mount -a | 02:15 |
| brettcar | And see if it updates it at all | 02:15 |
| brettcar | Oh actually | 02:15 |
| brettcar | never mind | 02:15 |
| brettcar | -u The -u flag indicates that the status of an already mounted file | 02:15 |
| brettcar | system should be changed. Any of the options discussed above | 02:15 |
| brettcar | (the -o option) may be changed; also a file system can be changed | 02:15 |
| brettcar | from read-only to read-write or vice versa. An attempt to change | 02:15 |
| brettcar | from read-write to read-only will fail if any files on the | 02:15 |
| brettcar | filesystem are currently open for writing unless the -f flag is | 02:15 |
| brettcar | also specified. The set of options is determined by first | 02:15 |
| brettcar | extracting the options for the file system from the fstab table, | 02:15 |
| brettcar | then applying any options specified by the -o argument, and | 02:15 |
| brettcar | finally applying the -r or -w option.a | 02:15 |
| brettcar | whoops! | 02:15 |
| brettcar | sorry! | 02:16 |
| brettcar | But yeah, use '-u' with mount | 02:16 |
| kensai | Ok I'm using sysv-rc-conf to edit the services which starts at boot. Now my question I want to disable mdam-raid at boot but it has an x under 0 6 and S how do I disable this do I remove all the X? | 02:16 |
| |trey| | kensai, never used that :( rcconf ;) | 02:16 |
| kensai | what other thing can I use for services? | 02:17 |
| kensai | that is a little bit easier to understand | 02:17 |
| kapputu | ok was not mounted | 02:17 |
| kapputu | is it mount -a -o ? | 02:17 |
| |trey| | kensai, apt-get install rcconf .... should be in universe at worst... nice and simple ncurses interface :) | 02:17 |

| Striss | yeah ive been using os x for a long time now, i just wanted to hop on the ubuntu wagon for a change | 02:28 |
| Striss | its running a lot lot quicker than os x does on my mac | 02:28 |
| |trey| | MyKq3, if you can't find them on www.apt-get.org, there isn't a debian package for it :) | 02:28 |

| Striss | msn | 02:30 |
| ThreeDayMonk | I nearly installed gentoo for it, but decided that I didn't need it that badly | 02:30 |
| |trey| | MyKq3, www.apt-get.org rules :) | 02:31 |
| Striss | i just switched from gaim to amsn and its working ok | 02:31 |
| Striss | now i'm attemping to compile mplayer | 02:31 |
| WW | |trey|: Right. Being ignorant, I would have guessed that the different connectors would output exactly the same signal, so there would be no point in having more than one monitor. | 02:31 |
| Striss | so this ubuntu experience is goodtimes so far | 02:31 |
| kapputu | ok i'm going to reinstall ubuntu tonight | 02:31 |
| kapputu | any suggestion for me ? | 02:31 |
| |trey| | Striss, umm, ouch... Christian Marrilat makes decent packages for mplayer *cough* | 02:31 |
| ThreeDayMonk | gaim is nice, but the interface is a bit brain-dead with all those pop-up windows | 02:31 |
| ogra | kapputu: take ext3 ;) | 02:31 |
| Striss | marrilat doesnt have ppc packages tho does he | 02:31 |
| |trey| | Striss, search apt-get.org for it and use the listing that mentions marillat... | 02:32 |
| |trey| | Striss, hmm... not sure actually... :( | 02:32 |
| ThreeDayMonk | |trey|: ooh, where are these mplayer packages? | 02:32 |
| |trey| | ThreeDayMonk, do what I just told Striss ;) | 02:32 |
| Striss | i'm just following a little guide on the ubuntu page with mplayer and its goine fine | 02:32 |
| WW | Striss: no, mariallat is i386 | 02:32 |
| ThreeDayMonk | oh, duh, yeah :-) | 02:32 |
| Striss | thought so | 02:32 |
| |trey| | ThreeDayMonk, use the testing source with warty though, else you get unresolved deps (universe is needed too...) | 02:33 |
| kapputu | ok | 02:33 |
| kapputu | anything about partitions | 02:33 |
| kapputu | how do I put /usr, /var, /home on a seperate file system | 02:33 |
| kapputu | I assume I'll have to mount these on a seperate partition ? | 02:33 |
| WW | ThreeDayMonk (or anyone else): So is just two monitors "easy" to setup up? Is there a howto somewhere? | 02:33 |
| ogra | kapputu: i split in sys and home.... others do it the other way | 02:33 |
| kapputu | yes, no ? | 02:33 |
| brettcar | kapputu: You'd have to repartition | 02:33 |
| brettcar | kapputu: And reinstall | 02:33 |
| |trey| | kapputu, you can resize part... and mv /usr /where/you/put/the/other/fs | 02:34 |
| ThreeDayMonk | WW: it's not trivial, but it's technically simple if you edit the config file by hand | 02:34 |
| cardador | ThreeDayMonk: to enable xinerama should i restart x or the pc? | 02:34 |
| thoreauputic | kapputu: keep it simple would be my advice, frankly | 02:34 |
| ThreeDayMonk | just x | 02:34 |
| |trey| | kapputu, its recommended to just do it during install though... | 02:34 |
| ogra | brettcar: he has a broken ext2 | 02:34 |
| cardador | ok brb | 02:34 |
| |trey| | WW, just google "xinerama howto"... | 02:34 |
| WW | ThreeDayMonk: I guess cardador is trying it now? | 02:34 |
| WW | |trey|: Good idea :) | 02:35 |
| |trey| | WW, I know, I said it ;) | 02:35 |
| kapputu | ok how do I do it during install ? | 02:35 |
| WW | |trey|: :) | 02:35 |
| ogra | kapputu: remove the ext2 and create what you want in the free space | 02:35 |
| |trey| | kapputu, when its asking you if you want to keep the default partition table, say no... and mount each on different partitions you create...... | 02:36 |

| thoreauputic | it should be possible to set nfs to auto in fstab, I believe | 02:41 |
| |trey| | Striss, just make sure to soft mount.... else that could be a bad idea :) | 02:42 |
| Striss | ok | 02:42 |
| kapputu | ok instead of mounting the filesystem on / I mount /usr on let's say /dev/hda8 ? | 02:42 |
| |trey| | kapputu, you are required to mount / ... this can be small though depending on how you plan to set up the fs... | 02:42 |
| kapputu | ok I don't understand | 02:43 |
| kapputu | can you rephrase it ? | 02:43 |

| ogra | |trey|: philosophy | 02:46 |
| |trey| | Eno_, just limits curruption, and damage possible from virii etc... | 02:46 |

| |trey| | thoreauputic, of course they are... just not as bad as for windows... | 02:47 |
| kapputu | ok guys can you help me get started on this thing ? | 02:47 |
| ogra | |trey|: virii ?? | 02:48 |
| |trey| | ogra, plural of virus ;) | 02:48 |
| thoreauputic | |trey|: sorry, but my reading suggests otherwise | 02:48 |
| |trey| | thoreauputic, I can find a virus for you to test your theory with real quick if you want? | 02:48 |
| ogra | |trey|: :p i know..... | 02:48 |
| ThreeDayMonk | viruses is the plural by most authorities | 02:48 |

| |trey| | LinuxJones, took about 2 mins to infect all 30 boxes, it was neato 8) | 02:50 |

| |trey| | ogra, this one fucked up the partition table, so it was kinda simple to see... commands just didn't work anymore :/ | 02:52 |
| LinuxJones | |trey|, so how did you infect 30 Linux machines if you did not know the name of the virus ? | 02:52 |
| |trey| | LinuxJones, ^ | 02:53 |
| |trey| | LinuxJones, basically same result as rm -rf / | 02:53 |
| ogra | |trey|: but how did you recognize it was a virus ? | 02:53 |
| |trey| | LinuxJones, dunno if you've ever had the balls to try that :) | 02:53 |
| |trey| | ogra, cuz the teacher said thats what it would do... | 02:53 |
| thoreauputic | |trey|: and how did this "virus" gain root privileges to achiev the equivalent of rm -rf / ? | 02:54 |
| LinuxJones | |trey|, how did it get root priviliges to erase the partition table ? | 02:54 |
| LinuxJones | |trey|, if you didn't tell it :D | 02:54 |
| |trey| | thoreauputic, no idea... I know for a fact my box wasn't logged in as root though, and it worked on my box :/ | 02:55 |

| Hikaru79 | OK, I ran the line, it did a whole lot of processing and then it brought me back to the terminal.

| cef_work | geppy: what sound card? | 04:01 |
| fluoro | Pizbit: What else would you want to output to other than the sound card? | 04:01 |
| geppy | Oh, my sound works fine, I'm just saying that Rhythmbox doesn't let you select, so I can't use ALSA/dmix with it, or whatever else it is that I want to use. | 04:01 |
| cef_work | fluoro: a different sound card? direct to disk file? | 04:01 |
| ashari | Anyone willing to tackle a frozen install in Virtual PC 7 on Mac OS X? | 04:01 |
| Pizbit | fluoro: Well, there's esd, alsa and oss emulation, often one works better than the others for people | 04:02 |
| geppy | Nforce2 onboard + unused SB 16 PCI | 04:02 |
| Pizbit | Especially when dealing with gstreamer. | 04:02 |
| geppy | And especially when you don't think high latency is fun, a la ESD. | 04:02 |
| fluoro | Pizbit: But we don't want to have all of those. We want OSS and ESD to die. | 04:02 |
| Pizbit | fluoro: Uhm, so? | 04:02 |
| geppy | haha | 04:02 |
| Pizbit | I deal with reality, not dreams. | 04:03 |
| geppy | That doesn't fix the lack of choice, though. | 04:03 |
| fluoro | Pizbit: I think having that in the sound player app is bad. There should just be a "sound configuration" dialog somewhere that sets your sound system, and then all audio players use that setup. | 04:03 |
| geppy | You can't even reorder the info tabs (track/title/genre/artist/album) | 04:03 |
| geppy | fluoro: Well, there isn't. | 04:03 |
| fluoro | geppy: That's my complaint with it. Not being able to reorder or rename things. | 04:03 |
| geppy | fluoro: Yeah. | 04:03 |
| ogra | geppy: no choice is the best one....(which would be a direct connection to your soundcard by default) | 04:03 |
| Pizbit | Someone make a gtk port of amaroK ! | 04:04 |
| fluoro | geppy: Then someone should fucking make one and stop blaming some music player that has nothing to do with that, and shouldn't have anything to do with that. | 04:04 |
| geppy | I don't understand why it has text dialogs for the info, if you can't change it without using vi on the flat file. | 04:04 |
| geppy | fluoro: I would like to, really, but no one would use it. | 04:04 |

| geppy | hahaha | 04:04 |
| Pizbit | Not pretending that I'm not one of course. | 04:05 |
| cef_work | geppy: fyi, all those apps that seem to crash use sound somehow, and I'm sort of wondering if it's having problems with more than one program trying to access the device | 04:05 |
| geppy | ogra: ALSA/JACK is the best choice. :) | 04:05 |
| geppy | cef: I've configured GAIM to use my system speaker, so I doubt it. | 04:05 |
| geppy | GRIP doesn't actually do sound, by the way. | 04:05 |
| cef_work | geppy: total guesswork of course, but I've seen apps just die if they can't use sound and they're configured for it | 04:05 |
| geppy | erm. | 04:05 |

| Cube-ness | fluoro, didnt mean to imply it was.. just saying theres that kind of portability too | 04:13 |

| GotD0t | trick1: and its the docs and settings on the c drive right? | 04:13 |

| WW_MoonWatch | ooohh, just a sliver left... | 04:19 |
| tricky1 | thoreauputic, Yes | 04:20 |
| bratsche | Cube-ness: I guess since I have no real experience with Python or that community, I always sort of think about performance. I guess I could sit down and try to experiment around with performance in a Python program, a C++ program, and a C# program. | 04:20 |
| tricky1 | each time /mnt/windows | 04:20 |
| bratsche | I doubt I ever will though. | 04:20 |
| tricky1 | I mounted it using mount -t vfat /dev/hdc1 /mnt/windows/ | 04:20 |
| GotD0t | tricky1: only thing i can think of would be to umount then mount it again | 04:20 |
| tricky1 | tried that | 04:20 |
| GotD0t | oh | 04:21 |
| tricky1 | maybe add it to fstab? | 04:21 |
| GotD0t | dunno what else | 04:21 |
| GotD0t | its fat32? | 04:21 |
| Cube-ness | bratsche, performance, as in sheer computing power? | 04:21 |
| tricky1 | yes | 04:21 |
| izaac | hey dudes how can i install only the security updates using apt-get ? | 04:23 |
| thoreauputic | tricky1: very weird :/ | 04:23 |
| bratsche | Cube-ness: Yeah, I guess so. Like, how would the three compare in doing some big-ass searching/sorting algorithms. That would be an interesting test. I'm too lazy to actually try it out though. | 04:23 |
| jdub | izaac: only enable the security line in sources.list | 04:23 |
| izaac | and, then.... | 04:24 |
| tricky1 | hmmm i just tried double clicking it in nautilus and the directory disappeared | 04:24 |

| Cube-ness | bratsche, c++ would likely win, in the end.. however, the python versio would likely take 1/10th the time to implement, giving you more time to do other things, or optimize the routine further. hehe | 04:25 |

| tricky1 | no | 04:26 |

| GotD0t | haha | 04:26 |
| thoreauputic | GotD0t: no, you can choose to have fat32 with XP | 04:26 |
| tricky1 | FAT32 is faster | 04:26 |
| bratsche | Cube-ness: It would be interesting to see how Python and C# compare in both runtime and in implementation time. For me, I expect that I would implement things faster in C# since I'm somewhat comfortable with it now. | 04:26 |
| tricky1 | but NTFS is more secure | 04:26 |

| thoreauputic | tricky1: ah - sp2 breaks stuff, from what I've heard | 04:26 |
| GotD0t | well if you dont care as much about speed you MIGHT want to try converting to NTFS | 04:26 |
| bratsche | Cube-ness: Mono's JIT is pretty impressive on certain things. Discounting startup time, they've got some things actually running faster than a comparable piece of code compiled by gcc from C/C++. | 04:27 |

| thoreauputic | tricky1: I don't know, but it's possible you are looking at a Windows problem rather than a linux one here | 04:29 |
| jdub | tricky1: or, use synaptic to do the same thing in gui land | 04:29 |
| izaac | but for install packages in debian i used to install via apt-get in the terminal | 04:29 |
| WW_MoonWatch | izaac: OK, just checking. | 04:29 |
| Zindar | izaac: you can in ubuntu also | 04:30 |
| Zindar | morning all | 04:30 |
| izaac | WW_Moonwatch: thanks | 04:30 |
| Cube-ness | bratsche, yeah.. but really, how often does 'fast' like that matter? to me, the abliity to code fast, in a clean readable syntax thereby making extending and maintaing my apps easier and more creative (less time thinking about language, more about my ideas) is a good trade off for some speed that you'll only notice in contrived benchmarkings | 04:30 |
| humprinch | hi all, anyone have any idea how to keep my laptop fan from coming on so often? | 04:31 |
| bratsche | Cube-ness: Yes, I agree with that. This is the main thing I have against writing GUI apps in C these days. I just feel like it's less productive, more error-prone, and for runtime speeds that are not necessarily faster. | 04:32 |
| geppy | humprinch: ice packs work well | 04:32 |
| humprinch | geppy: not so well for the crotch though | 04:32 |
| bratsche | Cube-ness: Then again, I haven't been doing a lot of GUI app coding recently so it's easy for me to say this stuff. I've been working on 3d game engine code. | 04:32 |
| Cube-ness | bratsche, hehe.. thats why i said "pygtk".. hehe | 04:32 |
| RageMax | sooo...where is the xorg.conf file exactly? | 04:32 |
| tricky1 | hmmm | 04:32 |
| RageMax | because I just searched the entire fs for it | 04:33 |
| tricky1 | this looks normal, right | 04:33 |
| Cube-ness | RageMax, /etc/X11 | 04:33 |
| tricky1 | /dev/hdc1 on /mnt/windows type vfat (rw) | 04:33 |
| bratsche | Cube-ness: Personally, I'd be more productive in C#. But that's just because I'm more familiar with it. I might be able to becomee more productive in Python if I spent more time with it first. | 04:33 |
| geppy | hmm.. | 04:33 |
| geppy | I think something just might be wrong with my sound setup, after all. | 04:33 |
| geppy | Just installed JuK, and it's crashing like crazy. | 04:34 |
| bratsche | heh | 04:34 |
| geppy | :) | 04:34 |
| bratsche | I knew it wasn't rhythmbox's fault! | 04:34 |
| geppy | hahaha | 04:34 |
| bratsche | =) | 04:34 |
| geppy | Rhythmbox just _won't_ _recognize most of my music, though. =) | 04:34 |
| geppy | Either way, I think I'm off for a fresh install. | 04:35 |
| bratsche | Bummer. | 04:35 |
| geppy | heh | 04:35 |
| bratsche | The thing about Rhythmbox that annoys me (although someone told me they're working on fixing it) is that I can't rename stuff. | 04:35 |
| geppy | Killed JuK, but I'm still getting errors all over the place in the terminal that it was using... | 04:35 |
| geppy | bratsche: Yeah, I _hate_ that. | 04:35 |
| geppy | That, and the whole "this is how it comes, you can't change it" attitude. | 04:36 |
| bratsche | And when I rip a CD into Rhythmbox, it might store the artists as "J.S. Bach".. but I already have another CD ripped and stored under "Johann Sebastian Bach", or "J.S.Bach". | 04:36 |

| Cube-ness | grip works fine | 04:37 |
| === geppy loves grip | ||
| bratsche | I shouldn't have to worry about that at rip time. I should be able to go back at a later time and say, "Oops" and fix it. | 04:37 |
| geppy | bratsche: Yeah. If you want to, you _can_ edit the flat file in ~./rhythmbox/is/a/crappy/app/ | 04:37 |
| geppy | I did that to change a few, and then decided that it was too much of a pain. | 04:38 |
| bratsche | Yeah. | 04:38 |
| bratsche | The correct solution is just to learn the code to Rhythmbox and send in a patch. =) | 04:38 |
| bratsche | But I was told that they are going to fix that. | 04:38 |
| geppy | heh | 04:39 |

| tricky1 | i could just cp the music folder from the terminal to this partition | 04:40 |

| Agrajag- | hey all, i've been using debian for some time, interested in ubuntu - if i install warty, and keep my system up to date (im assuming using apt-get update/upgrade?), when hoary comes out, would my system be the same as that? or is there a different sources.list for that or something? | 05:04 |
| nomasteryoda | Agrajag-: that's a question I had too | 05:05 |
| nomasteryoda | phrased quite well | 05:05 |
| WW_MoonWatch | Agrajag-: There will be different repositories for hoary. | 05:05 |
| nomasteryoda | makes sense | 05:05 |
| WW_MoonWatch | Agrajag-: But they (Ubuntu, that is) say it will be easy to upgrade from warty to hoary. | 05:06 |
| Agrajag- | ah ok. so you could do a dist-upgrade to hoary i guess? or similar? | 05:06 |
| Agrajag- | cool | 05:06 |
| cef_work | Agrajag-: same as if you upgrade from one release to another in debian | 05:06 |
| cef_work | Agrajag-: you'd probalby have to change the sources to reflect that you want hoary instead of warty, but otherwise it's pretty much the same | 05:07 |
| nomasteryoda | tricky1: | 05:07 |
| nomasteryoda | is that as | 05:07 |
| Agrajag- | yeah ok, ta | 05:07 |
| nomasteryoda | sudo ? | 05:07 |
| nomasteryoda | looks like you are using root mode to access that partition | 05:07 |
| nomasteryoda | what about from a new terminal | 05:07 |
| cef_work | in fact, it's possible that an update couldbe produced for warty that added in the hoary source lines to sources.list (commented out) so that you could easily select them in synaptic | 05:08 |
| nomasteryoda | that is a good idea | 05:08 |

| WW | punkass: Is that when you enter fonts:/// ? | 05:39 |
| kapputu | and the eth0 failed | 05:39 |

| nomasteryoda | MagicFab: when you change the partitions...i.e. add one | 05:41 |
| punkass | Kamion: u around? | 05:42 |
| nomasteryoda | mandrake should see it on boot ... | 05:42 |
| MagicFab | All space is already allocated. My /home is the biggest . | 05:42 |
| WW | odinson: Longer answer (didn't mean to sound curt): You can file bugs at http://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/ | 05:42 |
| nomasteryoda | MagicFab: Pqmagic can resize ext3 | 05:43 |
| nomasteryoda | and ext2 | 05:43 |
| MagicFab | ok | 05:43 |
| nomasteryoda | so you could allocate 2gb | 05:43 |
| nomasteryoda | for it | 05:43 |
| nomasteryoda | from the right side of your home part | 05:43 |
| MagicFab | is there anything I should do (besides backup) before attempting that ? "defrag'ing" ? | 05:43 |

| punkass | where on ubuntu can i put something so it starts on boot up? | 05:44 |
| nomasteryoda | unless you are resizing win98 | 05:44 |
| MagicFab | No, the win98 will stay intact | 05:44 |
| nomasteryoda | ok | 05:44 |
| nomasteryoda | then don't defrag | 05:44 |

| nathanieldelaney | ah | 06:28 |
| nathanieldelaney | is wine free? | 06:28 |
| xskoulax | allowing some to run on linux boxes | 06:28 |

| nomasteryoda | i have run both | 06:29 |
| bur[n] er | and "cedega" (formerly WineX) is not free either (commercial for gaming) | 06:29 |

| nomasteryoda | i have my Macromedia MX | 06:30 |
| nomasteryoda | and Office 2003 | 06:30 |

| nomasteryoda | OUTLOOK SUCKS | 06:33 |
| nathanieldelaney | which was 4 years ago | 06:33 |
| x43 | windows always breaks though. reinstall every 1-2 months. something just stops working like its supposed to | 06:33 |

| nathanieldelaney | not is you use spywareSD | 06:33 |
| nomasteryoda | x43: yes | 06:33 |
| HrdwrBoB | nomasteryoda: new outlook is not so bad | 06:33 |
| nathanieldelaney | some open source guru had compassion on windows users | 06:33 |
| HrdwrBoB | nomasteryoda: outlook 2000 and below is a terrible travesty | 06:34 |
| nomasteryoda | HrdwrBoB: yea, i have to use it too | 06:34 |
| bur[n] er | new outlook has great spam filtering | 06:34 |
| nomasteryoda | bur[n] er: er, no it doens't | 06:34 |
| bur[n] er | no? | 06:34 |
| bur[n] er | works well for me | 06:34 |
| nomasteryoda | i use SpamBayes | 06:34 |
| Cube-ness | the thing is.. most people that make a$$es of themselves defending MS Windows are really just in love with an app or two, and likely spend 95% of their computing time in those apps.. so its the apps they like | 06:34 |
| nomasteryoda | make it even better | 06:34 |

| GotD0t | but i wouldnt know... as im wired to my router | 06:36 |
| bur[n] er | GotD0t: depends on the firmware of your router and card | 06:36 |
| GotD0t | oh | 06:36 |
| bur[n] er | mine's pretty solid | 06:36 |
| nathanieldelaney | most people like windows because they learned how to use it already | 06:36 |

| nomasteryoda | knemo | 06:39 |
| xskoulax | i like ubuntu's wireless, has my dlink dwl-650G working :D, took me a while to sort it out but i think thats more to do with me being a little dense;) | 06:39 |
| nomasteryoda | works nice | 06:39 |
| bur[n] er | i wish ubuntu would load my ipw2100 driver the right way | 06:39 |
| nomasteryoda | xskoulax: wireless is not all it's cracked up to be...esp on winders | 06:39 |
| bur[n] er | i always have to rmmod it and modprobe it to make it work | 06:39 |
| bur[n] er | anyone else have this issue on a centrino? | 06:39 |
| bur[n] er | it's happened with with every linux distro i've tried | 06:39 |

| bur[n] er | and even when i compiled the ipw2100.sf.net project by hand | 06:39 |
| nomasteryoda | =) | 06:39 |
| GotD0t | i like my wired connection... never fails | 06:39 |
| nomasteryoda | GotD0t: lol | 06:40 |
| GotD0t | only configuration required is my IP and im solid | 06:40 |
| nomasteryoda | i like scrolling down my Synaptic to find packages to install... | 06:40 |
| nomasteryoda | GotD0t: mine's DHCP... | 06:40 |
| nomasteryoda | no config there | 06:40 |
| xskoulax | GotD0t: i like wired too, but its annoying to have wires all around when its not needed | 06:40 |
| xskoulax | and besides my laptop sits 5 feet from the wireless router | 06:41 |
| === bur[n] er prefers to work in a coffee shop sometimes as well | ||
| xskoulax | so connection is very good | 06:41 |
| GotD0t | well my router and cable modem are hooked up in my room... so having a wireless connection would be pointless | 06:41 |
| GotD0t | considering i use a desktop | 06:41 |
| nomasteryoda | GotD0t: mine too | 06:41 |
| nomasteryoda | desktop | 06:41 |
| nomasteryoda | =good | 06:41 |
| xskoulax | well yes wireless desktop is a concept that annoys me somewhat | 06:41 |
| bur[n] er | referring to topic... hoary is being merged... does that mean packages will show up in the ubuntu repository? or is it a special seperate repo? | 06:42 |
| GotD0t | I could use DHCP, but i like always knowing which one which computer is assigned | 06:42 |
| nomasteryoda | GotD0t: i set my IPs per MAC in the router table | 06:42 |
| nomasteryoda | so they always get the same | 06:42 |
| GotD0t | hmm | 06:42 |
| nomasteryoda | using wrt54g hacked | 06:43 |
| nomasteryoda | and my wifi cards are set in there too | 06:43 |
| GotD0t | thats cool | 06:43 |
| nomasteryoda | yea... but of course the MACs could be sniffed | 06:44 |
| nomasteryoda | ... but makes me feel more secure | 06:44 |

| nomasteryoda | or at least in control | 06:44 |

| geppy | GotD0t: I'm just rephrasing my question, "What's the preferred method for installing GAIM plugins on Ubuntu?" | 07:02 |
| punkass | ficusplanet: would it be better for me to use debians gnome=pp or build it from source? | 07:02 |
| nomasteryoda | stuNNed: just load up synaptic | 07:02 |
| nomasteryoda | and search the list | 07:02 |
| geppy | punkass: debian's | 07:02 |
| stuNNed | nomasteryoda: whoa, ok | 07:02 |
| punkass | k | 07:02 |
| nomasteryoda | easy | 07:02 |
| ficusplanet | geppy, AFAIK, you have to rebuild gaim from source to build plugins becauce the headers don't seem to come with the Ubuntu packages. | 07:02 |
| geppy | ficusplanet: They don't have a gaim-dev package, or anything cool like that? | 07:03 |
| ficusplanet | Nope. I noticed that when I was trying to build nautilus-send-to | 07:03 |
| geppy | Speaking of which, where's a good place to go to learn how to build a .deb? Any websites, or manpages? | 07:03 |
| ficusplanet | The debian site has some decent documentation on it. | 07:04 |
| === attitude [~DarkNite@fw.icallinc.com] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| geppy | ficusplanet: Thanks. | 07:04 |
| geppy | ficusplanet: Wait, nautilus-send-to is functional, now? | 07:04 |
| geppy | =D | 07:04 |
| ficusplanet | If you have the gaim-plugin, yes. It's pretty nice. | 07:04 |
| geppy | heh, cool | 07:04 |
| ficusplanet | The only problem for me is the lack of AIM file transfers in Gaim. | 07:05 |

| geppy | ficusplanet: AIM file transfer works. | 07:05 |
| geppy | ficusplanet: Are you updated | 07:05 |
| ficusplanet | geppy, It has never worked for me. Could that just be because I'm behind a router? | 07:05 |
| GotD0t | yea | 07:06 |
| nomasteryoda | need the port opened up | 07:06 |
| geppy | ficusplanet: Possibly. Are you blocking any ports? GAIM's AIM file transfer works for me, and I'm behind a standard Lynksys router. | 07:06 |
| nomasteryoda | like dcc in irc | 07:06 |
| GotD0t | ficusplanet: you have to enable port forwarding to whatever the port is for file transfers | 07:06 |
| nomasteryoda | yup | 07:06 |
| ficusplanet | What port do I need to open? | 07:06 |
| GotD0t | that is a good question | 07:06 |
| GotD0t | ;-) | 07:07 |
| ficusplanet | I have forwarding set up for apache. | 07:07 |
| nomasteryoda | http://www.practicallynetworked.com/sharing/app_port_list.htm#Messaging | 07:07 |
| nomasteryoda | 0_0 | 07:07 |
| geppy | ficusplanet: from the AIM site: This may be due to the use of a firewall on your network. A firewall is a security device on your network to prevent potentially harmful data from coming in, and to prevent certain other data from going out. Depending on how a firewall is configured, it may prevent AIM file transfer from working. There is nothing AIM can do to get around this, as it is just the feature of the firewall working as it shoul | 07:07 |
| geppy | Perhaps you can set it up in GAIM somewhere to use a different port. | 07:08 |
| nomasteryoda | http://www.practicallynetworked.com/sharing/app_port_list.htm#Messaging | 07:08 |
| nomasteryoda | geppy: look here for the port | 07:08 |

| geppy | nomasteryoda: thanks | 07:08 |
| nomasteryoda | whole list of em | 07:08 |
| geppy | nomasteryoda: That says AIM talk, not file transfer; they don't use the same, do they? | 07:08 |
| HrdwrBoB | no, they don't | 07:10 |
| Gmail | ok i now the problem with mirror.isp.net.au just use ftp with them there ftp > http thing stuffed up | 07:10 |
| stuNNed | can ubuntu be used as a server? | 07:10 |
| geppy | stuNNed: Yes. | 07:10 |
| HrdwrBoB | stuNNed: yes. | 07:10 |
| x43 | ubantu is not communicating with my printer and i installed the drive in the PPD directory it suggested | 07:11 |
| stuNNed | geppy: HrdwrBoB, thanks | 07:11 |
| geppy | stuNNed: IF you want a server, though, go with standard Debian. More stable, more secure. | 07:11 |
| HrdwrBoB | geppy: and about 17 years old | 07:11 |
| stuNNed | geppy ok thanks | 07:11 |
| HrdwrBoB | IMHO.. better off with ubuntu | 07:11 |
| x43 | Debian is so hard to install though without a gui i dont have the experience to build from scratch | 07:11 |
| izaac | great! i got j2sdk1.3 working! | 07:11 |
| HrdwrBoB | recent releases of software | 07:11 |
| geppy | x43: Did you use the Printin GUI? | 07:11 |
| x43 | i sure did | 07:11 |
| HrdwrBoB | with security updates | 07:11 |
| x43 | it prompted me for the location of the PPD file | 07:11 |
| geppy | HrdwrBoB: Better off with Ubuntu for a desktop, agreed... for a server, different story, methinks. | 07:11 |
| x43 | the only one on the system was .gz'ed | 07:11 |
| HrdwrBoB | geppy: to run ANYTHING useful, you need to run at least testing | 07:12 |
| x43 | so i ungz'ed it and selected it and it said it was already installed | 07:12 |
| geppy | x43: heh, didn't do that to me. It wouldn't auto-detect your printer? What kind of printer do you have? | 07:12 |
| x43 | lexmark 1150 suggested drive 1100 | 07:12 |
| geppy | HrdwrBoB: Eh, if you're just running Apache and MySQL, though... | 07:12 |
| ficusplanet | Does anyone know how I can start a movie at a specific position in MPlayer? | 07:12 |
| geppy | x43: I don't know what to say, sorry. | 07:12 |
| geppy | ficusplanet: man mplayer | 07:13 |
| HrdwrBoB | geppy: and a kernel built in the 60s | 07:13 |
| nomasteryoda | RTFM | 07:13 |
| nomasteryoda | lol | 07:13 |
| ficusplanet | geppy, I am RTFMing. I can't find what I need, though. | 07:13 |
| x43 | considering this opteron machine purchase | 07:13 |
| HrdwrBoB | x43: opterons++ | 07:13 |
| HrdwrBoB | we're about to get a dual 242 system | 07:14 |
| x43 | when will i see the benefits of the opteron processor under linux ? | 07:14 |
| geppy | ficusplanet: I just said that'd be a good place to look, because I don't know. Tried google? | 07:14 |
| geppy | HrdwrBoB: heh | 07:14 |
| HrdwrBoB | x43: after you install it | 07:14 |
| geppy | How does one sign on as an Ubuntu packager? | 07:14 |
| HrdwrBoB | geppy: #ubuntu-devel | 07:14 |
| === geppy would like to be the GAIM packager. | ||
| geppy | Thanks. | 07:14 |
| HrdwrBoB | np | 07:14 |
| x43 | so even a opteron 2800 is decent enough speedwise ? my father has a xp 2800 and its a bit slow. | 07:15 |
| Cube-ness | slow? uh, slow at what? | 07:15 |
| x43 | well | 07:15 |
| HrdwrBoB | x43: an opteron 2800 is a next generation chip from the XP | 07:15 |
| Xip | And here I thought I was spoiled with my 1.3 Tbird | 07:15 |
| x43 | its running windows so you never know.. its kind of meant to be slow overall in its desktop functionality | 07:16 |
| geppy | x43: I have a 2500+, never had problems with it. 2800+ is anything but slow. | 07:16 |
| HrdwrBoB | it will be SIGNIFICANTLY faster | 07:16 |
| geppy | x43: heh, yeah | 07:16 |
| HrdwrBoB | geppy: it's not fast though | 07:16 |
| HrdwrBoB | I have a 2800+ at home | 07:16 |
| nomasteryoda | ficusplanet: mplayer | 07:16 |
| nomasteryoda | ficusplanet: mplayer -chapter <chapter id> | 07:16 |
| nathanieldelaney | can I get wine with a package install or do I need to install some other way? | 07:16 |
| geppy | HrdwrBoB: Oh? I run Doom3 fine, as well as compiling whatnot, I've never had trouble with my trusty 2500+. May not be the _fastest_, but it's _fast_. | 07:16 |
| Cube-ness | x43, the xp 2800 is not a slow cpu.. either your seeing things, or theres something very wrong | 07:17 |
| ficusplanet | nomasteryoda, No chapters. It's just an avi. | 07:17 |
| x43 | well its not terribly slow | 07:17 |
| jivera | Is there anything in the Ubuntu live cd that would restrict commercial retail? | 07:17 |
| nomasteryoda | ah | 07:17 |
| geppy | jivera: No. | 07:17 |
| jivera | geppy: Thanks. | 07:17 |
| Zindar | nathanieldelaney: apt-get install wine if you have universe enabled | 07:17 |
| x43 | but i want to know compared to an opteron 2800 running 64bit linux | 07:17 |
| === Zindar is running wine every day right now... | ||
| geppy | Are there going to be updates between now and hoary? | 07:18 |
| Cube-ness | x43, unless your talking about compiling things or some such, you shouldnt even be able to really tell much "general" difference | 07:18 |
| === izaac [~ubux@201.129.177.23] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| geppy | Or are updates going to be done in bunches? | 07:18 |
| x43 | i see so perhaps a standard mobile xp would be more cost efficient for my needs | 07:19 |
| geppy | Speaking of which, are there any Linux-capable gaming-worthy laptops out there? | 07:19 |
| x43 | i can clock it at 2.4ghz using cooler | 07:19 |
| nathanieldelaney | zindar: thanks | 07:19 |
| Cube-ness | why bother? | 07:19 |
| Cube-ness | what is it you need all that power for anyway? | 07:20 |
| Cube-ness | heh | 07:20 |
| nomasteryoda | hey, power is everything | 07:20 |
| x43 | well the processor is only $107 | 07:20 |
| x43 | the motherboard would be $25 used | 07:21 |
| Cube-ness | "man.. i can type my emails so much faster with this new cpu!" | 07:21 |
| x43 | it supports sata | 07:21 |
| geppy | hahaha | 07:21 |
| GotD0t | "oh man, IRC messages show up 1/10th of a millisecond faster" | 07:21 |
| geppy | hahaha | 07:22 |
| GotD0t | I'm happy with my 1.8 ghz p4 | 07:22 |
| geppy | Actually, due to monitor refresh rates, the message would show up at the same time. The sound might be a little faster, though. =) | 07:22 |
| x43 | i have this complex from when i was a small kid in the 80's. all my friends had faster computer and modems that i did. i was always running things that were out of date. | 07:22 |
| GotD0t | haha | 07:22 |
| x43 | remember when the price difference between 1200 baud modems and 2400 baud modems was greatly significant ? | 07:23 |
| Cube-ness | yeah. but nowadays, 'out of date' is still plenty for the vast majority of stuff | 07:23 |
| x43 | i worked for a while month as kid just to get that 1200 baud modem | 07:23 |
| GotD0t | well... i wasnt around for the greater part of the 80's | 07:23 |
| x43 | i guess in my mind i had considered -- what could i do with all that power ? | 07:24 |
| Cube-ness | x43, hehei had a 300baud modem for my c64.. never had another modem till i got my first x86 with a 33.8k modem | 07:24 |

| x43 | i was a bad boy in the 80's i had got into a ti994a user group and met up with this guy who had introduced me into to the dark side of the 80's computer generation. | 07:25 |
| GotD0t | haha | 07:25 |
| Cube-ness | Pizbit, hehe. yeah.. modem was great. but the os sucked. seemed the computer (p133) was no faster than my 7mhz amiga 500 | 07:25 |
| GotD0t | oh, i was a bad boy in the 80's too... i was flinging gerber at my older siblings | 07:25 |

| HrdwrBoB | most of it will likely happen | 07:54 |
| ficusplanet | That would rock. | 07:54 |
| spikeb | i'm actually more interested in seeing how the GNOME dev team plans on going from 2.x to 3.0 in six months | 07:54 |
| HrdwrBoB | there is quite a lot of people working on it | 07:54 |
| spikeb | i have a feeling they won't ;) | 07:54 |
| HrdwrBoB | spikeb: that's just a versioning thing | 07:54 |
| ficusplanet | spikeb, the next version is 2.10. And if time is needed when they go to 3.0 the schedule will just be longer. | 07:55 |
| spikeb | yeah | 07:55 |

| jdub | actually, there are no plans at all for a GNOME 3.x any time soon | 07:55 |
| spikeb | jdub, good. 2.x isn't finished. | 07:56 |
| HrdwrBoB | out of interest, what's happening wrt CD burning in gnome | 07:56 |
| HrdwrBoB | is nautilus-cd-burner going to get lots of work | 07:56 |
| nathanieldelaney | hey. if I have a game installed, can I make it show up on the applications menu? | 07:56 |
| HrdwrBoB | or will there be another app | 07:56 |
| jdub | spikeb: there have been finished 2.x releases 5 times now... | 07:56 |
| HrdwrBoB | because currently.. it's a huge hole | 07:56 |
| spikeb | nathanieldelaney, it might just do it automatically | 07:56 |
| x43 | yeah i burned a cd and the long filenames were cut off | 07:56 |
| spikeb | jdub, I mean as a series. | 07:56 |
| nathanieldelaney | it hasn't | 07:57 |
| spikeb | nathanieldelaney, hmm | 07:57 |
| nathanieldelaney | is there a fairly simple way to do that? | 07:57 |

| jono | which hal file updates my /etc/fstab when I plug a device in? | 12:08 |
| sabdfl | use with care | 12:08 |
| sabdfl | jono: none | 12:08 |
| jono | sabdfl, huh? | 12:08 |
| sabdfl | afaik it's handled by pmount, without changing fstab | 12:08 |
| altan | I tried that (sorry, I can't read your name in this res :/) | 12:08 |
| Tomcat_ | automount doesn't use fstab either... | 12:08 |
| altan | I changed hte only available res type to 1280x1024 but it still doesn't work | 12:08 |
| stvn | altan: remove the high resolutions from the XF86Config-4 file | 12:09 |
| stvn | altan: need to restart X | 12:09 |
| jono | there was a script included with HAL and I thought distros needed to use that | 12:09 |
| altan | ah, I just tried logging off and on | 12:09 |
| altan | ok, brb then | 12:09 |
| stvn | altan: not enough ;) | 12:09 |
| visor | jono: it depends, AFAIK if when compiling, the fstab-sync flag was passed then hald automatically edits the file | 12:10 |
| visor | wich is i guess the way it was on ubuntu | 12:10 |
| jdub | jono: ubuntu doesn't use fstab sync | 12:10 |
| jdub | jono: because munging configuration files makes baby jesus cry | 12:10 |
| visor | or maybe iam just wring | 12:10 |
| visor | wrong | 12:11 |
| spikeb | perhaps if developers would quit writing tools that munged config files, baby jesus wouldn't cry so damn much. | 12:12 |
| sabdfl | how would i use find in a shell script to test if there are files in directory tree called .orig? | 12:12 |
| jono | so how does pmount do it then, does it keep its own virtual fstab in memory or something? | 12:12 |
| sabdfl | jono: not sure, ask pitti | 12:12 |
| jono | is that Martin Pitt? | 12:12 |
| pitti | jono: I did not follow the discussion | 12:12 |
| pitti | jono: why should pmount keep its own fstab? | 12:13 |
| jono | pitti, I am just trying to understand why pmount is used instead of fstab-sync | 12:13 |
| jono | and how does pmount work? | 12:13 |
| pitti | jono: two reasons: | 12:13 |
| === tux [~tux@213-202-137-10.bas502.dsl.esat.net] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| pitti | jono: 1) we do not want daemons mess up configuration files like fstab | 12:14 |
| pitti | jono: 2) we don't want hal run as root | 12:14 |
| jdub | pitti: you forgot the third reason | 12:14 |
| pitti | jono: pmount solves both | 12:14 |
| pitti | jdub: ? | 12:14 |
| jdub | 3) we do not want to upset baby jesus | 12:14 |
| jono | hehe | 12:14 |
| stvn | hehe | 12:14 |
| jono | jdub got that right | 12:14 |
| pitti | jdub: whoever that is... | 12:14 |
| jono | so how does pmount do it then? does it bypass fstab? | 12:14 |
| spikeb | jesus is gonna whip some butt here pretty quick | 12:15 |
| pitti | jdub: mind to enlighten me? :-) | 12:15 |
| pitti | jono: yes | 12:15 |
| pitti | jono: it uses its own policy and directly calls mount | 12:15 |
| jdub | pitti: (the son of god, who didn't cry when he was born) | 12:15 |
| jono | is there any documentation on how to set up pmount? I am writing an article on configuring project utopia you see, and this should be in it | 12:15 |
| pitti | jdub: of course I know "Jesus", I just thought you meant somebody else in particular | 12:15 |
| Keybuk | sabdfl: find /path -type d -exec "test -f {}/*.orig" \; -print 2>/dev/null | 12:15 |
| pitti | jono: it does not really need setup | 12:16 |
| jdub | pitti: it kinda weirded me out that you were asking ;) | 12:16 |
| Keybuk | or similar | 12:16 |
| pitti | jdub: I thought it were the nick of a security addict | 12:16 |
| jdub | oh | 12:16 |
| pitti | jdub: never mind :-)( | 12:16 |
| pitti | jono: pmount just needs to be installed | 12:16 |
| sabdfl | keybuk: will that exit -gt 0 if such a file exists? | 12:17 |
| jono | pitti,what about on non-debian systems? | 12:17 |
| pitti | jono: if you don't use the deb, you have to chmod 4755 the two binaries and put them into /usr/bin | 12:17 |
| jono | right | 12:17 |
| pitti | jono: make install does that, BTW | 12:17 |
| __daniel | test -z `find /dir/ -name '.orig' | wc -l` | 12:17 |
| pitti | jono: However, in Ubuntu we restricted pmount execution to members of group 'plugdev' | 12:17 |
| jono | then how does HAL call pmount when a device is added? | 12:17 |
| pitti | jono: i. e. real desktop users | 12:17 |
| jdub | jono: it requires patches elsewhere too (it's not really a member of project utopia) | 12:17 |
| pitti | jono: 1) kernel receives a hotplug event and sends it to hal | 12:18 |
| pitti | jono: 2) hal detects some stuff about the device, stores it into its db and notifies anything that listens to him | 12:18 |
| jono | right, so pmount listens for hal callbacks? | 12:18 |
| pitti | jono: 3) gnome-volume-manager (running as user) receives the hal message and calls pmount (as user) | 12:18 |
| pitti | jono: no, pmount is low-level and shall not have such dependencies | 12:19 |
| jono | oh right | 12:19 |
| jono | so gnome-volume-manager calls pmount | 12:19 |
| __daniel | keybuk: oh... you already answered it :-) | 12:19 |
| pitti | jono: it is more or less similar to mount, but with some additional privileges | 12:19 |
| pitti | jono: right, g-v-m does it | 12:19 |
| jono | was g-v-m patched to access pmount or is this in the stock g-v-m? | 12:19 |
| mjr | hmm, that plugdev group thing is probably the reason why my ubuntu dist-upgraded from sid doesn't automount stuff | 12:19 |
| pitti | jono: g-v-m is the manager that decides whether to mount it, whether to treat a device as camera and call gthumb instead and so on | 12:20 |
| pitti | jono: no, we patched it | 12:20 |
| jono | right, so I should look at including information on how to patch it | 12:20 |
| sabdfl | mjr: dist-upgrading could break in all sorts of interesting ways :-P | 12:20 |
| jono | is the patch available online? | 12:20 |
| pitti | jono: it's in the source package | 12:20 |
| Keybuk | sabdfl: mine prints out the directory trees with .orig files in it, __daniel's is probably closer to "exit 0 if there's a .orig here" | 12:20 |
| jono | oh right | 12:20 |
| pitti | jono: I can put it to somewhere if you want | 12:20 |
| mjr | sadyes, I am aware, so I haven't complained too loudly about that ;) | 12:20 |
| jono | is it likely that pmount support will be merged into the main g-v-m build? | 12:20 |
| sabdfl | i'm just looking for something i can test with in a shell script | 12:21 |
| jono | pitti, thats ok, I just need to write how the reader patches it | 12:21 |
| sabdfl | i want to exit 1 if there's a .orig or .rej below a certain dir | 12:21 |
| pitti | jono: hmm, I don't think that will happen in the near future | 12:21 |
| mjr | anyway, I did a clean install on my laptop already, and am getting a new desktop box anyway | 12:21 |
| jono | pitti, if I write this, could you have a look over it for me to check it is correct? | 12:21 |
| mjr | so hopefully soon I can bitch about _real_ bugs with abandon ;) | 12:21 |
| pitti | jono: BTW, the patch is trivial, it just exchanges '/bin/mount' with '/usr/bin/pmount' | 12:21 |
| pitti | jono: I will be my pleasure :-) | 12:21 |
| spikeb | wtf | 12:21 |
| jono | pitti, thanks :) | 12:21 |
| spikeb | the latest kernel source package is 2.6.7 | 12:22 |

| pitti | jono: I'm looking forward to it :-) | 12:22 |
| jono | I am determined to buy everyone who makes free software that I use daily a beer, that includes you as well jdub | 12:23 |
| pitti | jono: where do you want to publish that, BTW? | 12:23 |
| Keybuk | sabdfl: test -z $(find /path -name "*.orig" -or -name "*.rej" -print) | 12:23 |
| sabdfl | keybuk: gem, thank you | 12:24 |
| sabdfl | Keybuk: that exits 0 if there are NO files, 1 if there are? | 12:24 |
| Keybuk | yes | 12:25 |
| sabdfl | great | 12:25 |
| Keybuk | you could do: if [ -z $(find /path -name "*.orig" -or -name "*.rej" -print) ] ; then ... | 12:25 |

| jordi | is xmms included in ubuntu? | 02:58 |
| jordi | that might be an overkill, but... | 02:58 |
| Gmail | use rplay <file> | 02:58 |
| MyKq3 | Striss, have u fixed the problem ? | 02:58 |
| jordi | Striss: maybe there's something good in esound-clients | 02:59 |
| Striss | rplay is not a command | 02:59 |
| Gmail | but make sure rplay is config to use esound | 02:59 |
| Striss | MyKq3, nope | 02:59 |
| Gmail | Striss: apt-get install rplay | 02:59 |
| jordi | Striss: there appears to be a "esdplay" in -clients. | 02:59 |
| Striss | i'm a little hesitant to try that | 02:59 |
| MyKq3 | Striss okay thats what we will do | 03:00 |
| Striss | i was wondering why esdplay wasn't there | 03:00 |
| Striss | i have esd but no esdplay | 03:00 |
| jordi | probably the clients package is not useful to the average ubuntu user | 03:00 |
| Striss | ahh ok now we're getting somewhere | 03:00 |
| MyKq3 | Striss. type this comand tell me that u resive cat /proc/asound/cards | 03:00 |
| jordi | MyKq3: sounds works ok. It's just the play command. | 03:01 |
| Striss | yeah | 03:01 |
| sid77 | bob2, tnx | 03:01 |
| Striss | jordi, can i just apt-get esound-clients ? | 03:01 |
| MyKq3 | Striss, he sayed he can't start two soud servers on the same time .... and that he used alsa... didn't he ? | 03:01 |

| Loki|muh | can I tell apt to use the x86 package? | 04:49 |
| spacey`ki | Loki|muh, with a little bit of luck you could compile it? | 04:51 |

| tedbundyjr | kent: i tried it before but the properties only show information for one directory only, not all. | 04:52 |
| spacey`ki | Loki|muh, make your own package | 04:52 |

| LinuxJones | jono, for like a the letter 'a" ? | 05:51 |

| Javi | hi, people, do you know how is Ubuntu sound system configured ? I'd like my debian sound system like my ubuntu sound system, but I can't find diff on configuration, but ubuntu is better than debian on this feature | 08:17 |
| Craigory | Sound system? Do you mean alsa or the default gnome sounds? | 08:19 |
| noisome | Anyone's opinion on if Ubuntu is one of the better Debian distros? Which ones are better, or is it the best in your opinion? | 08:19 |
| Javi | Both, but more alsa config | 08:20 |
| vrln | ubuntu is the best by far imo | 08:20 |

| ficusplanet | bigbrother0074, If you haven't really changed the config before, you might as well. | 08:31 |
| ficusplanet | bigbrother0074, Doing so will override your current GDM config - startup sound, theme, XDMCP, etc. | 08:32 |

| bigbrother0074 | ficusplanet: what's XDMCP? | 08:32 |

| ficusplanet | bigbrother0074, Allowing other PCs to connecto to your X server (X -query [ip address] ) basically. | 08:33 |
| thomaes | iz: mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/loop0, | 08:33 |

| === rcc [~rcc@200.79.207.254] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| jdub | well, the other option is booting the installer with 'custom', but that's going to make life harder for you (it's really for setting up server installs) | 08:45 |
| Craigory | jdub: pmount causes no new entry to /dev/hdc, no icon in Disks folder, and message "Error: mount failed". | 08:45 |

| psyklops | what howto? | 09:56 |
| devolve | guess not | 09:56 |
| psyklops | :) | 09:56 |
| Matt| | Mithrandir, really? | 09:56 |
| Matt| | Mithrandir, didn't work for me I had to rebuild it | 09:56 |
| thomaes | cardador, it works, but i don't know how to define a shared folder :( | 09:56 |
| devolve | psyklops, how did you set your player? | 09:56 |
| psyklops | you have mplayer working? | 09:56 |

| psyklops | theres a link under the autodetection thingamabob | 09:57 |
| psyklops | lets you select your player yourself | 09:57 |
| devolve | yes, I have mplayer working . had to start it once with the -oss option, but it works now without me doing that... | 09:57 |
| psyklops | pick any one of them (I think) and it should work | 09:57 |
| cardador | thomaes: dont you have a share tab? | 09:57 |
| devolve | psyklops, while you are there, check out the Aphex Twin Windowlicker Video... some funny stuff.. | 09:58 |
| Mithrandir | swifty: grab RADIO0d.BIN RADIO11.BIN WLANGEN.BIN from http://raw.no/tmp/ and drop them in /lib/hotplug/firmware, if they're not there already. | 09:58 |
| devolve | even if you dont like em | 09:58 |

| punkass | ususally in /etc/X11 | 11:30 |
| punkass | but there is nothing there | 11:30 |
| GotD0t | right | 11:30 |
| punkass | but i am in X right now | 11:30 |
| GotD0t | did you do an ls in /etc/X11 | 11:30 |
| === Yannick_ [~chatzilla@HSE-Toronto-ppp92131.sympatico.ca] has left #ubuntu [] | ||
| punkass | yeah its not there | 11:31 |
| binary_10 | locate XF86Config-4 ? | 11:31 |
| punkass | tried that | 11:31 |
| GotD0t | thats interesting | 11:31 |
| punkass | even did an updatedb first | 11:31 |
| binary_10 | O.O | 11:31 |
| GotD0t | i would exit the gui and do X -configure | 11:32 |
| punkass | GotD0t: i have ut2004 installed at home...havent tried et yet tho | 11:32 |
| GotD0t | and that will generate a new one... and you can just copy it over | 11:32 |
| Mestapheles | can someone tell me if thre is a relationship between debian and ubuntu? | 11:32 |
| punkass | hmm ok ill try that | 11:32 |

| GotD0t | wow.. this guy has kept a record of every book hes read since 1974 | 11:34 |
| punkass | omg..i am embarresed.. | 11:34 |
| GotD0t | ? | 11:34 |
| joh_ | is there any guides available on how to print over samba to a windowsXP computer? | 11:34 |
| michel_v | binary_10: they will be, in Hoary | 11:34 |
| punkass | hahaha..i am ssh'd into another server at the moment | 11:35 |
| joh_ | this windowsXP thing is killing me... | 11:35 |
| GotD0t | joh_ i wouldn't use samba | 11:35 |
| GotD0t | joh_ i mean... if you're just needing printing | 11:35 |
| GotD0t | joh_ if you need file sharing then you need samba... otherwise you can just use IPP as winxp has support for it | 11:35 |
| Mestapheles | eh carlos.. son siempre tan indiferente aqui? | 11:35 |
| joh_ | ahh, ok. I`ll try that | 11:36 |
| joh_ | GotD0t: You did understand that the printer is connected to the windows box? | 11:37 |
| GotD0t | oh | 11:37 |

| carlos | Mestapheles: It depends on if anyone can answer you | 11:37 |
| carlos | Mestapheles: if you want, we have a Spanish channel #ubuntu-es | 11:37 |
| joh_ | :) I suppose that gives me no choice | 11:37 |
| GotD0t | joh_ sorry, i didn't realize that... but i think you can still use IPP | 11:37 |
| Mestapheles | cool | 11:37 |
| GotD0t | joh_ if you configure windows to share the printer over IPP then you can set CUPS to access it | 11:38 |
| monteiro | xenonite : yes | 11:39 |
| Mestapheles | maybe I'll try that latter if they're still busy here. I really don't know the spanish terms for the stuff I do. But it would be good as a back fall. thanks | 11:39 |
| joh_ | GotD0t: I have to do some research on that | 11:39 |
| monteiro | xenonite : java problem :( | 11:39 |
| GotD0t | joh_ IPP seems to be the easier option of the two | 11:39 |
| joh_ | I am adding a ip port now. | 11:40 |
| xenonite | okay put your variable into /etc/environment | 11:40 |
| xenonite | monteiro: you dont need it in etc/profile | 11:41 |
| xenonite | monteiro: sort of JAVA_HOME=/usr/local/java/current | 11:41 |
| xenonite | after a restart it would be everywhere. instead you could use "export JAVA_HOME=/usr/local/java/current" | 11:42 |

| xip | Okay, I'm pretty impressed. That was a damn easy installation that actually seems to have worked | 11:44 |
| xip | I did notice some errors on boot though. Is there a log setup by default that contains all messages from boot? | 11:45 |
| GotD0t | everyone gets those AFAIK | 11:46 |
| xip | Ah, the two... well I cant remember what they were but there were two of them that were practically the same. Looked like it was trying to load kernel modules if I'm not mistaken | 11:46 |
| GotD0t | yea | 11:47 |
| GotD0t | schp or something like that | 11:47 |
| xip | Yeah, that sounds familiar. Well good to know I didn't break something | 11:47 |
| xip | I'm still curious if there is such a log though. Will be handy to know in the future | 11:48 |
| GotD0t | i was wondering about that too | 11:48 |
| GotD0t | there probably is one | 11:48 |
