Wondering if it fixes some 1.0RC annoyances (unclickable link, etc) [12:07] <|trey|> punkass, smbmount is basically a wrapper around mount -t smbfs :/ [12:07] <|trey|> punkass, mount smbfs ...

[01:49] brettcar, what is AND'd ? [01:49] It runs a boolean AND operation [01:49] not subtraction [01:49] 000 & 010 & 010 ? [01:49] brettcar: keep it simple to make it comprehensible [01:49] AND the columns ? [01:50] thoreauputic, I understand this stuf [01:50] each one seperately [01:50] against 7 I think. === walt [~walt@pcp09715860pcs.clmntn01.nj.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu [01:50] but you AND the columns right ?

There will be 500 people in irc :D [01:55] I understand umask now but [01:55] LinuxJones: oh god :/ [01:55] oh just 500 ?? [01:55] HrdwrBoB, heh [01:55] LinuxJones, thats the next release correct? [01:55] hey anyway I can help with hoary ? [01:55] usual, yes [01:55] I'm a quick learner and a good programmer [01:55] LinuxJones, is this an official ubuntu channel?

[01:56] i'm sure many do [01:56] trying to load a module that doesn't exist [01:57] imka: about 6.4 [01:57] pciehp ? [01:57] hw_random or something [01:57] whats up with that [01:57] imka: what cpu do you have?

[02:00] I have a module that fails to load every boot, called hw_random or something like that, it happened in rc and final release [02:00] brettcar: Yes, the one linked from the main ubuntu web page.

[03:15] How do I remove the whole installation? === Jaramin [~p@modemcable026.12-70-69.static.videotron.ca] has joined #ubuntu [03:15] later [03:15] So I can get the defaults back? === Klowner2 [~klown@209.125.233.67] has joined #ubuntu [03:15] I know, I'm a blockhead. === newusr [~newusr@adsl-67-124-104-31.dsl.snfc21.pacbell.net] has joined #ubuntu [03:16] Tenniru: they have an apt repo you know, so you don't have to install by hand [03:16] testing [03:16] I know. [03:16] probably built for debian, so ymmv [03:16] I just have a .deb that I used dpkg to install... [03:16] And I need to know how to remove it. [03:17] Because, well, I need that menu. [03:17] dpkg -r blah [03:17] Hi all, I have a couple of questions re: ubuntu. Can anyone help? [03:17] okay. [03:17] LinuxJones: thanks. now I switched all running systems to ubuntu, though the clients are re-installed :-). [03:18] I'm having a hard time installing on a white and blue G3, everything goes fine, then after the install is complete I reboot and get this: Starting Ubuntu... [03:18] pivot_root: No such file or directory [03:18] Kernel panic: Attempted to kill init [03:18] finally my system uses an AMD64-dist again :-) [03:18] pivot_root: No such file or directory [03:18] Kernel panic: Attempted to kill init [03:18] Nafallo, you will love Ubuntu in a few days :) === jamesh [~james@203-59-50-191.dyn.iinet.net.au] has joined #ubuntu [03:18] newusr: i'm sure someone here can [03:18] LinuxJones: I already do ;-). [03:19] heh [03:19] Gah! It didn't work! [03:19] How do I get my menu back in Opera? [03:19] LinuxJones: my girlfriend wanted to re-install debian though :-P. [03:19] by menu do you mean an icon of the app in your menu? [03:19] or is the menu missing from the application or something [03:19] No, I mean.. [03:19] The menu in the application. [03:20] I accidentially removed it. [03:20] whoa. [03:20] How do I get it back? [03:20] LinuxJones: didn't like gnome, so I showed here universe so she could install kde again. [03:20] Nafallo, Debian is my #2 distro and there is no #3 :) [03:20] OK, I've got a RH9 installation with RAID1 on all partitions (including root). Will the Ubuntu install see these mdX devs and support them? [03:20] oh, probably in the app itself, maybe right click on the toolbar? [03:20] LinuxJones: hehe, same. even though I loved gentoo a year ago :-P. [03:21] I have a problem, when i log in ubuntu in gdm, the splash screen of ubuntu frezee, here is the last line of var/log/gdm : Could not init font path element unix/:7100, removing from list! [03:21] Geh! It won't work! [03:21] any idea??? [03:21] Is there any other relatively modern browser that has better rendering than FireFox? [03:21] LinuxJones: I always do get back to debian anyhow. And yes, I do count ubuntu to be debian :-P. [03:21] Nafallo, I tried Gentoo but it was not worth the time. If you have very specific task to do that it is great but, not worth the effort for a desktop system. [03:22] Tenniru, no, i dont think so. Konq can render a few pages better, but i think firefox is the best [03:22] LinuxJones: I was running fluxbox at that time so... ;-) === hackeron [~hackeron@hackeron.user.gentoo] has joined #ubuntu [03:22] Nafallo, good point :) [03:22] LinuxJones: before ubuntu I was using fluxbox with gnome- and kdelibs ;-) [03:22] Nafallo, I was running it when using KDE, 12 hours to complie a new release is retarded [03:23] i run gentoo on my desktop, fits my needs really well. hobby system mostly, up to date etc... [03:23] Hmm, anyone here installed Ubuntu on a blue and white G3 with success? [03:23] ubuntu on my laptop [03:23] Hey, just installed ubuntu -- 1 problem: If choosing to fetch packages from internet, it fails to install many packages like X, etc :( [03:23] Tenniru: it probably left a .opera or something in your home dir. try moving it out of the way and see if it resets itself to the defaults. [03:23] It's there. [03:23] Okay. [03:23] Tenniru: also, here's a good apt and dpkg reference: http://intrepid.perlmonk.org/apt-dpkg-brief-ref.html [03:23] LinuxJones: I agree. gentoo unstable is really eating up the cpu ;-) [03:23] newusr said: OK, I've got a RH9 installation with RAID1 on all partitions (including root). Will the Ubuntu install see these mdX devs and support them? [03:23] also, max resolution is 1024x1024 -- I'm use to 1600x1200 :( [03:24] if you're unfamiliar with apt and dpkg you should probably keep that handy [03:24] Horray! I got it!

I'm having some problems with the media players, though. [03:38] hmm, anyone running an ubuntumirror? [03:39] what problems unperson? [03:39] I'm actually normally a KDE person, so the apps are a bit new to me.

[04:14] If I install the w32codecs will it be used by all multimedia apps or just mplayer [04:14] 'sok :) [04:14] cef_work: will find out in uk morning [04:15] MeAndU: mplayer (if compiled with) and xine [04:15] jdub: cool.. just trying to mock up a tshirt design, and it would help. *grin* [04:15] stupid ibook [04:15] USB ports to close together [04:15] AFAIK [04:15] cef_work: just use the eps [04:15] jdub: erm, no, this is for a catch-phrase that would go below the logo.. [04:15] jdub: and I am using the eps btw. *grin* [04:16] I am still having problem with mplayer not starting in ubuntu any idea [04:16] now how do I get my nvidia drivers working again and don't tell me it is in the wiki im lazy ;) [04:16] MeAndU: compiled yourself? [04:16] jdub: the other side of the tshirt uses a different font, so that's not an issue [04:16] rvirani: which chipset in the dwl122? [04:16] jason_: it's in the wiki in trivially short format [04:16] was picked up [04:17] http://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto [04:17] no from mutliverse i believe [04:17] ty [04:17] jdub: was it you the other day that mentioned packaging ifolder in the future? [04:17] mdz, its up [04:17] I just got to do the wlan-ifconfig or whatever [04:17] mplayer works great [04:17] rvirani: I'm interested [04:17] ok I have a networking problem [04:17] MeAndU: ahh, don't know how they are compiled :-/ [04:17] any helpers ? [04:17] Does Ubuntu use OSS or ALSA sound by default? Is it muted initially (like ALSA package sometimes is)? [04:17] kapputu: rule 1. don't ask about asking [04:17] kapputu, whats the problem? [04:17] kapputu: just go ahead and ask :-) [04:18] unperson: OSS API, ALSA drivers [04:18] all in all you were all just bricks in the wall -- name song win a cookie, be specific [04:18] I have two routers at home, the ISP connects to one of them [04:18] unperson: the usual mixer levels are unmuted at boot [04:18] and my router connects to the other one. === heltzu [~gsmaclean@c-24-8-2-12.client.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu [04:18] Nafallo, Do you mean i should compile my self and is it astright forward way [04:18] I have an ethernet cable running from my roommate's room (where the main router is ) to the living room [04:19] I use the wireless from my router (let me called router 2) [04:19] MeAndU: well, no. I just meant my thought of the problem was the wrong one :-P. [04:19] So does Mark [04:19] mdz, Ok thanks.

[04:26] router 1 - 192.168.0.1 [04:26] router 2 - 192.168.2.1 [04:26] Oh great. Having some strange issues here. Is there anyway to shutdown and restart all usb devices in linux? I'm suddenly having issues getting all usb devices to work. === tricky1 is loving Ubuntu [04:26] noisome: 4.10 [04:26] k cool [04:27] desktop connects to router 2 [04:27] laptop connects to router 1 [04:27] can't see desktop from laptop [04:27] are they going to allow the use nvidia 3d drivers by default? [04:28] why dont htey all connect to router 1 [04:28] router 1 is full [04:28] you know what's wierd, thinking next day you are one day closer to death [04:28] hmm, there are noone sitting on a smooth script to rsync warty amd64 and i386 main and restricted locally with rsync? [04:28] haha [04:28] for some reason the ethernet on laptop doesn't connect to router 2 [04:29] I'm thinking of changing the gateway on router 2 to be something in router 1's ip range [04:29] what kind of routers are you using? [04:29] so router 2's gateway could be 192.168.0.25 [04:29] Ok, so I'm a little confused. I don't have any sound. The OS definitely detected my soundcard and it looks like the correct drivers are loaded (I have and i810 and it's using snd_intel8x0) any ideas? [04:30] sound in what [04:30] did you turn on your speakers? [04:30] what kind ? [04:30] yes, what kind? manufa.... ? [04:30] noisome, Well, it's a laptop, so they're build in. There are no hardware controls. [04:30] one is a Belkin 4-port and other is a D-Link 3-port wireless [04:31] unperson: are the modem driver loaded? [04:31] when I run mplayer from terminal this is what i got and sorry for the mess Reading config file /etc/mplayer/mplayer.conf [04:31] My sound hardware, via lspci: "Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corp. 82801BA/BAM AC'97 Audio (rev 03)" [04:31] Warning unknown option skin at line 50 [04:31] Reading config file /home/ubuntu32/.mplayer/config [04:31] MPlayer was compiled WITHOUT GUI support.

[04:37] So, I just installed Ubuntu on my laptop, and two really unfortunate things happened. 1) It installed GRUB into my MBR, losing my ability to boot into NetBSD. 2) It seems to have neglected to ask me for a root password....... Anyone seen this second item before? Is there a default? === humprinch [~ej@pool-70-18-220-147.ny325.east.verizon.net] has joined #ubuntu [04:37] (Pretty sleek looking, otherwise!) [04:37] cibapet there is no rot [04:37] ChibaPet: Ubuntu uses sudo [04:37] root* [04:37] um [04:38] ChibaPet: Netbsd you can probably chainboot from grub [04:38] ChibaPet: not sure how, google.com/linux? [04:38] Nafallo, Heh, ok, so I sorta forgot for a moment. The PCMCIA card is a modem/NIC combo. I never use the former so I totally wasn't thinking about it. What was the problematic module in question? [04:38] what's netbsd good for ? [04:38] hi all, i just switched from SuSE to Ubuntu, and i notice my laptop fan runs more often, although the temps are in the same range they were with SuSE. anything i can do to keep the fan from coming on so much? [04:39] kapputo - lots of stuff :) [04:39] like ? [04:39] it runs on like every archiecture in existance :P [04:39] kapputo - like, my wireless card is supported under NetBSD. [04:39] well not quite, but nearly :P [04:39] ChibaPet: what cards that? [04:39] But, anyway... [04:39] TI ? [04:39] NetGear [04:39] ChibaPet: http://www.ubuntulinux.org/support/documentation/faq/root [04:40] Thanks. [04:40] unperson: an integrated softmodem [04:40] stupid new internet connection at my school [04:40] ok it runs on every arch, etc is fine, but why would you want to use it as a primary OS ? [04:40] took like 5 minutes to load that page to get the url [04:40] Okay, does anyone know how to rescan for hardware changes? None of my usb devices are showing up in /proc/bus/usb/devices [04:40] Nafallo, Ah, ok. Not an issue then I guess. [04:40] kapputu: Why do you want to use linux as a primary os? [04:40] kapputo - probably, years of using it exclusively have biased me. === spikeb [~spikeb@c68.117.110.98.hay.wi.charter.com] has joined #ubuntu [04:40] kapputu: i mean you can run X and everything etc on netbsd so itd be similar to linux [04:40] unperson: lsmod | grep i8 knows if it is ;-) [04:40] ic [04:40] alright this rocks [04:41] how's the support for netbsd [04:41] support? for...? [04:41] I thought *BSDs were good for servers [04:41] They're good for anything. I happen to be infatuated with Debian packaging lately. [04:42] Nafallo, Nah, I looked through lsmod earlier. Nothing like that. [04:42] I'm also infatuated with the idea of regular releases, which is why I've installed this over Sarge. :P [04:42] I have a desktop which hangs up if I run Windows or X [04:42] I want to run an FTP server on it [04:42] I'll be sshing into that machine [04:42] The annoying thing is that I had my sound working fine with debian testing, so I'd expect it to work here too. [04:43] so what would be a good option ? [04:43] it already has debian on it [04:44] I answered my own question ?? [04:44] :-) [04:44] heh kapputu [04:44] GotD0t, Possible syntax is: dev= scsibus,target,lun or dev= target,lun. In the latter case, the CD-Recorder has to be connected to the default SCSI bus of the machine. Scsibus, target and lun are integer numbers. Some operating systems or SCSI transport implementations may require to specify a filename in addition. In this case the correct syntax for the device is: dev= devicename:scsibus,target,lun or dev= devicename:target,lun. [04:44] doesn't that give you a headache? [04:45] tylerwylie: you have a scsi cd burner? [04:45] no so i have to use scsi emulation too [04:46] tylerwylie: just do a link from your burner to /dev/cdrecorder for cdrdao [04:46] GotD0t.... [04:47] is there a good tutorial (albeit not too hard) on how to setup a ssh server on debian ? [04:47] tylerwylie: isnt htat what you're doing? [04:47] tylerylie: cdrdao?

[05:08] I hate RPMs [05:08] anyone switch from gentoo or debian to ubuntu, and if so, what was the selling point? [05:08] Dependancies in RPMs bug me [05:08] Klowner2: it Just Works [05:08] HrdwrBoB, still now sound, but he is using an spdif card to give surround sound [05:08] although right now i'm having similar issues with APT [05:08] yep htpc [05:08] same thing [05:08] htpc, RPM in SUSE with yast (handles dependancies) is great, [05:08] so I think i'll just shoot myself. [05:08] it's like debian only it's got the latest stuff [05:08] it's a win-win [05:08] I had a lot of trouble getting MPlayer to work on RH 9 [05:08] tylerwylie, Sounds like fun :D [05:08] FC1 doesnt have mp3 support :\ [05:09] HrdwrBoB, win-win it is!

[05:09] htpc: MP3 is patent encumbered [05:09] you should use oggs where possible [05:09] Its a file sharing app [05:09] htpc, you can get rpms for mp3 support in rhythmbox and xmms at freshrpms.net [05:09] htpc, for FC [05:09] or flac :) [05:09] for linux ? [05:09] HrdwrBoB, Oh, I thought it did. I never had a problem playing music, however most of mine is OGG maybe I neevr tried an mp3 [05:10] spikeb I know :D [05:10] HrdwrBoB, two mixers stated above aren't a problem? [05:10] :) [05:10] how do I record streaming music ? [05:10] stuNNed_: no, I have the same thing, tbh I'm not 100% sure why that happens [05:10] mp3 is patent encumbered, therefor a non-us repository should be set up. [05:10] kapputu: mplayer -dumpstream [05:10] Yeah, its actually kde based so you need to install some of the headers and that but i allows you to use Fastrack, Gnutella and OpenFT [05:10] and java should go in multiverse [05:10] heh [05:10] hmm the music is being streamed in realplayer [05:11] spikeb: well AU is now going to get the laws similar to US only worse [05:11] HrdwrBoB, yeah [05:11] we're getting SHAFTED [05:11] has anyone ever used gstreamer to send music to a remote ESD sound server? [05:11] is there a website that shows Ubuntu's package database? [05:11] HrdwrBoB, is there a way to get rid of the oss mixer? or am i dangling in the wind? [05:11] gotta have the non-us/au server somewhere safe [05:11] our current government controls both the lower and upper house [05:11] I used apt-get and got info that makes sence now: [05:11] The following packages have unmet dependencies: [05:11] mplayer-586: Depends: libartsc0 (>= 1.3.0) but 1.2.3-1 is to be installed [05:11] Depends: libggi2 (>= 1:2.0.5) but 1:2.0.4-3 is to be installed Depends: libungif4g (>= 4.1.3) but 4.1.0b1-6 is to be installe [05:11] HrdwrBoB, yup, i read about that. you're gonna get the hurt put on [05:11] hmm what do I do with my MP3s ? [05:11] Eh, I guess for tonight I'll have to settle for a pretty but silent Ubuntu. Night all. [05:11] stuNNed_: possibly, but it might simply be the same mixer, but OSS/ALSA [05:11] I need newer versions but yet Synaptic syas they're up to day [05:11] convert them to oggs ? [05:11] *date [05:11] i have sound! :) [05:11] kapputu: yes [05:12] oh it's sick not to have sound [05:12] i was without sound for like two months heh [05:12] HrdwrBoB, could it be i'm missing gstreamer alsa plugin? [05:12] How do I use apt-get to update a package? [05:12] apt-get upgrade packagename [05:12] stuNNed_: depends, best way to test is to play a wav with raw pcm data [05:12] htpc: It may be that there are no updated packages in the ubuntu respositories [05:13] ok how do I record music that's being streamed using realplayer ? [05:13] anybody here get their Linksys wireless cards running in ubuntu without a hitch?

An alarm clock with a few customizable features would be really nice. Maybe that's a hacking void that could be filled easily :) [12:53] The latter as least allowing you to configure the sound output. [12:53] steved: Yeah, I'm tempted to fill it. [12:53] 'cept I'm a lazy so who'd have to learn a fair bit to do it. [12:54] Pizbit: rb has never given me any trouble, it's just pretty feature-weak. But I don't get too fancy with my music-playing anyway :) [12:54] I think I might take a stab at it. I've always wanted to write an applet. [12:54] What language? [12:55] Hrm. Tossup between C# and python. [12:55] If it could make it into the next ubuntu release with whatever stable version of mono they end up using, I'd do it in C#. [12:55] python! [12:55] Yeah, I know. :) Python is pretty awesome. [12:56] 'tis the only language I've bothered to more than just look at [12:56] steved: How's mono? Is it .NET in linux? [12:56] I'm a lot more familiar with C#/mono, though, since I'm a .NET convert. [12:56] gruberman: It's the .NET foundation classes, ASP.net, and a C# compiler [12:56] So... yes. :) === Pizbit argues python. :) [12:57] Ok.. I actually downloaded c# express beta on my xp box [12:57] It doesn't include anything unfree, like Passport. [12:58] gruberman: I would recommend getting a copy of vs.net, if you plan on writing C# on Windows with any kind of regularity.

[12:59] but time is limited (family, work,house) so I'm trying to figure out which language to use [12:59] Ah. [12:59] If your time is limited, I'd say go for python. [01:00] python or perl === Erix [~erixSP@dsl81-215-8357.adsl.ttnet.net.tr] has joined #ubuntu [01:00] Can someone please give me a diagnostic program/utility to run that will give me some idea of why my external HD will not connect via 1394? Thanks [01:00] It's an easy language to learn, it's clean, it's easy to write good code with, and it's very very free. :) [01:00] Yeah, python looks fun :) === steved boos perl [01:01] hehe, python is a tad more limited than perl, and a tad easier to learn :P [01:01] I reallt like pascal tho [01:02] Hahaha:) [01:02] It may only be a tad easier to learn. But it makes code which is infinitely more readable, since perl tends to have an inverse relation between code cleanliness and quality ;) [01:02] gruberman: then look at ADA [01:02] Or delphi rather [01:02] steved: perl isnt readable, but it works [01:03] liten: I've had too many years of software engineering propaganda pumped into my brain to let that work as an argument anymore. ;) [01:03] steved: hehe, i wasnt trying to make progaganda, i am too old for that shit [01:03] haha, didn't think you were :) [01:03] steved: i use C, i like C, and i doubt i learn something else than basics in other languages [01:04] but, you dont learn C overnight [01:04] No, that's for sure. [01:04] I would still consider C easier to learn than perl, but I guess that's pretty subjective. [01:04] well, python it is [01:04] lots of good docs and stuff on the net [01:04] I suppose perl does get a person writing useful code quickly. === steved cheers [01:05] nah, i'd say perl is easier to learn than C, atleast to get started [01:05] but, C is a sortof better start, if you want to learn other languages [01:05] but, that again, is very subjective [01:05] :) [01:06] if you learn perl first, most other languages are just very different === Potn [~potnhbug@ip129-167.bacs-net.hu] has joined #ubuntu [01:06] Yeah. [01:06] If you're writing clean perl, though (before you try to learn anything else), learning a new language probably wouldn't be too bad. [01:06] is there a simple way too install mono and gtk# in ubuntu... Or do I have to download and compile? [01:07] Once you've hit one of the C family you have most popular languages covered. :) [01:07] steved: Don't suppose you know of any python-gnome howto resources for building applets and whatnot? [01:07] jolg: There's an unsupported repo (which works quite well - it's well-maintained). I'll find it for you [01:07] What language will help me find hard drive on 1394 ?? ;) [01:07] steved: thanks [01:07] jolg, have you checked if its in universe? [01:07] Pizbit: No, sorry [01:07] eh? [01:07] Well, I'm not going to write a new 3D-engine that would rival Carmacks stuff, so time to start collecting links :) [01:07] kent: it isn't, for some reason [01:08] its not in universe, but it is in multiverse [01:08] Oh, right. [01:08] put in multiverse, and you find mono there [01:08] kent: ok, I'm new to debianish linuxsystems. [01:08] I installed ubuntu and mono before I knew there was a multiverse (or possibly before it existed) [01:08] how do I do that? [01:08] deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ warty multiverse [01:08] ok [01:08] put that line in /etc/apt/sources.list [01:09] What's multiverse compared to universe? [01:09] "more" [01:09] Hehe [01:09] *lol* [01:09] I read universe was Debian unstable, so what is multiverse? :) [01:09] steved: is PyGTK something to look into? [01:09] gruberman: I would say so [01:09] Tomcat_: one example: mplayer [01:09] If you're planning on writing GUI apps [01:09] gruberman: I've used a small bit of it in my own small app and it seems cool:) [01:09] Tomcat_: an open unstable repos? [01:10] Oh... alright. [01:10] Tomcat_: extra stuff not in debian [01:10] Kewl... that makes it even more usable. :) [01:10] gruberman: I think PyWx (or whatever) is supposed to be good, too (particularly for cross-platform code) - but I"ve never really played with wx, and I'm pretty partial to Gtk thanks to Gtk# ;) [01:10] I always end up doing a yatzy app, so it would be nice with a GUI [01:10] isn't multiverse the same as universe but it contains non-free stuff aswell? But just MIGHT be wrong ;) [01:10] steved: GTK for c#? [01:10] steved: Ugh, wx, that's always looked horrible on my machine [01:11] mine too [01:11] I hate python! [01:11] hehe [01:11] i like qt or gtk [01:11] Pizbit: Good to know :) I don't think I've ever seen a wx app [01:11] it always give me trouble... at least almost always! ;-) === Pizbit wonders if he still has the screenshot around. [01:11] That's the thing I have problems with in linux. All those GTK, wx and stuff [01:11] gruberman: Yeah, a GTK library for Mono (C#, VB.net, etc.) [01:12] dang, nope [01:12] gruberman: Yeah, all the widget sets are pretty annoying. Hopefully sometime in the future fd.org will help everyone standardize something beautiful :) [01:13] seb128: multiverse contains nonfree stuff? [01:13] steved: So GTK is just an API for X or something? Jsut like wx is another? [01:13] what is the gtk# packet called? [01:13] jolg: gtk-sharp, I think [01:13] steved: ofcourse =) [01:14] 5 minutes till I get to try Ubuntu on my lappy! :D [01:15] Can somebody do a package search for "madwifi" please? [01:15] gruberman: I'm sure I'm not the best person to be explaining widget toolkits, so I'll leave that to someone more knowledgable. But the only 2 you really need to worry about are GTK and Qt. [01:15] where can I get esddsp? [01:16] jolg: it may be libgtk-cil [01:16] ThreeDayMonk, esddsp comes with esd...but that's a buggy way to do things [01:16] you're better off enabling dmix so multiple things can connect to also [01:16] ALSA, sorry [01:17] ajmitch: yes apt-get told me so.. He's kind of smart! =) === ropca [~v6ikek6rb@213-219-72-22-dsl.mus.estpak.ee] has joined #ubuntu [01:17] vasi: do you understand this well? I'd be grateful for some help [01:18] I've got a USB headset which I'd like to use with skype [01:18] what's the environment refresh command in bash ? [01:19] slightly on-topic, the ALSA debian dudes are looking into making the setup of dmix in alsa-lib a bit easier in the next uploads. === Delgul [~gerard@delgul.demon.nl] has joined #ubuntu === stvn [~steven@82.197.192.33] has joined #ubuntu [01:20] afternoon jordi :) [01:20] ThreeDayMonk, i'm no expert, but i just got it working myself thanks to some links [01:20] Hey all... Need some general info on Ubuntu... anyone that has installed recently and want to tell something about it? Preferably a Debian die-hard... [01:20] ALSA has a great wiki, look around there [01:21] jordi, that's great news [01:21] so... I need to install ALSA, first of all [01:21] Delgul: what do you want to know... [01:21] hi ajmitch [01:22] Treenaks: Ok, I am confused about the package management. Will I have my apt-get update/upgrade and can I upgrade into eternity? [01:22] yes, yes [01:23] Treenaks: Cool... freedom of choice in KDE/Gnome? [01:23] Treenaks: Kernel 2.6 or 2.4? === jsubl2 [~jsubl2@209.144.23.220] has joined #ubuntu [01:23] Delgul: 2.6 [01:23] Treenaks: ALSA or OSS audio? [01:23] Delgul: freedom of choice, basically.. but KDE is not supported (you can install it, not guarantees) [01:23] Delgul: ALSA, OSS emu [01:24] Treenaks: Cool... where's the catch then? Can I install it comercially for my customers without starting to pay? [01:25] GPL == catch? [01:25] Delgul: it's Free.. just like Debian is [01:25] Treenaks: So how do they pay for the developers they hired? [01:26] Delgul: uhhh.. isn't that in the FAQ? [01:26] vasi: GPL is no problem ;-) [01:26] Delgul: http://www.ubuntulinux.org/ [01:26] Delgul: "Ubuntu will always be free of charge, and there is no extra fee for the "enterprise edition", we make our very best work available to everyone on the same Free terms." [01:26] Delgul: "The Ubuntu Project is a community project with participation from many volunteers, sponsored by Canonical Ltd. Canonical will not charge licence fees for Ubuntu, now or at any stage in the future. Canonical's business model is to provide technical support and professional services related to Ubuntu." [01:26] Treenaks: You are right, perhaps I should read that one too ;-) What is your general impression Treenaks? [01:27] Delgul: I love it :) [01:27] Delgul: I've become an instant Ubuntu salesman ;) [01:27] Treenaks: Any points you don love that you want to share? === Delgul clicks "download" button [01:28] uhh, not really [01:28] Delgul: Canonical is fully-funded by Mark for quite a while ... otherwise we have various methods of making money including support, for which we already have customers; also it doesn't actually cost a huge amount to run Canonical, largely just the wage bill and hosting costs -- we don't have offices or other traditional corporate overhead [01:28] cd // [01:28] whoops :) [01:28] Tim-E: wrong window ;) [01:28] indeed [01:28] Treenaks: Thanks... I will be trying it this weekend ;-) [01:29] Delgul: well, it doesn't have psycic abilities, so I still have to click on stuff to open, other than that it's perfect ;) === chowells|roam is now known as chowells [01:30] stvn: Thanks... the psychic abilities will probably be implemented soon I gather ;-) [01:31] at least it does cross channel chat ;) === lupus_ [~lupus@kn-ivl-2.kuleuven.net] has joined #ubuntu === Android16 [~Owen@196.33.201.18] has joined #ubuntu [01:33] hello === tuppa [~tuppa@c211-30-40-130.mirnd1.nsw.optusnet.com.au] has joined #ubuntu [01:34] Why are the Debian folks so bitchy about ubuntu?

I guess they prefer 'real' debian over all the derivatives [01:36] I remember haning out in #debian and see knoppix ppl told to bugger off to #knoppix, they do have a point in saying that #debian is for debian and not knoppix ubuntu etc [01:36] oy...the power management unit is convinced that my *desktop* is running off battery [01:37] does reportbug work with ubuntu appropriately, btw? [01:37] yeah, you can't expect debian folks to take responsibility for fixing things of which they have no knowledge [01:37] vasi: nice [01:37] mjr: in my experience, yes [01:37] vasi: you actually have a /proc/acpi/battery/ on a desktop?

[01:59] is there a way to easily share a folder with a windows comuter in ubuntu? or is the only way editing samba.conf?

[04:12] cah: plus it boots rather fast [04:12] yes, it's better than the fedora based ones becuase it never probes my sil SATA raid either which all of them do until you use noprobe === barry_za [~barry@131.227.84.66] has left #ubuntu [] [04:12] I love it (and debian). [04:12] YAYA I upgraded! [04:12] I'm so glad I persevered becuase when I tried a release candidate the installation hung on libc6 despite verifying the CD. [04:13] I'm not sold completely on gnome yet. I preferred older gnomes. [04:14] Is there a tutorial or HOWTO on building a debian package from .tar.gz === mathew [~mathew@203.197.22.92] has left #ubuntu ["Leaving"] === telemaco [~telemaco@216.Red-83-33-186.pooles.rima-tde.net] has joined #ubuntu === Acridien thinks that Gnome needs a new iconset as default === ToGGY agress wioth acridien [04:16] better fit in laptop? maybe a little scary to run gentoo on those small ones === Acridien ask why [04:16] jolg: isn't there a build option with apt-get as in -b or something? [04:16] why does gnome need a new iconset? then [04:16] don't you need a debian sourcefile to do that? [04:16] (although I don't like it much either atm) [04:17] This should help: http://linuxdevices.com/articles/AT8047723203.html [04:17] cah: i don't like the default one either with ubuntu or fedora [04:18] Who has set d3a iconset and gtk2 theme ? [04:18] i just upgraded my ubuntu [04:19] yep --> that's why I use lorma when I want to try out fedora --> their kde is lovely (IMO since it's so subjective) [04:19] d3a is innovative [04:19] d3a look at the dr icons === p0int [~point@203.130.197.109] has joined #ubuntu [04:20] Anyone who wants to recommend an icon set? [04:20] gruberman_: what do you use ? === Mooper [~psi@203.59.241.79] has joined #ubuntu [04:21] standard [04:21] gruberman_: shrugs [04:21] gruberman_: it's awful [04:22] gruberman_: it looks like a draw [04:22] Acridien: And you recommend? :) === Nafallo wants g3b or something * [04:23] gruberman_: d3a mostly === ToGGY [toggy@24.247.101.34.gha.mi.chartermi.net] has joined #ubuntu [04:23] GOD I LOVe [04:23] gruberman_: but it needs to be extended [04:23] God I love cd-rw's [04:23] You can install so many disto's in one day [04:23] is this the iconset Acridien ? http://tinyurl.com/3pd7q === kensai [~kensai@sanjuan-196-42-14-85.coqui.net] has joined #ubuntu [04:24] cah: yup what do you think?

[04:26] cah: c u I quit [04:26] I don't think so. but ppc or x86 should be close enough. [04:26] kensai, menu->programming? === Acridien [~acridien@95.72.76.83.cust.bluewin.ch] has left #ubuntu [] [04:26] bye Acridien. [04:26] i think imma try a new distro! [04:26] nope there are no entries [04:26] whats up Toggy? [04:27] ToGGY: do what I did: freebsd + lorma + ubuntu + gentoo (plus win xp - sorry). :) [04:27] that should keep you occupied [04:27] thats what I get for installing kde programs in gnome ;) [04:27] I want install ubuntu on a powerpc g3 [04:27] i like sourced based [04:27] callisto: it should be fine. I installed ubuntu onto a G4 ibook 933 -- most of it is the same. [04:27] it should be fine [04:27] I'm not big into Gnome either, but man, ubuntu + Gnome 2.8 is not all bad === jacob [~jacob@h146n1fls23o1061.bredband.comhem.se] has joined #ubuntu [04:28] but on the powerpc g3 i get always a kernel panic, after reboot [04:28] so nobody uses qt3-designer? [04:28] ok. I can't really help there. what type of panic? kernel fails, or FS type, or no partition found? [04:28] so I want know if there is somewhere a new kernel [04:28] Sarge is gonna have to be hell good to drag me back to standard debian [04:28] not if you are installing the 4.10 final [04:29] I use the final [04:29] Mooper: it will never happen. ubuntu is so much better+easier than debian it would take a massive change in sarge to move anyone. [04:29] Mooper: well, just dist-upgrade when needed ;-). === nmf [~nmf@213.30.75.8] has joined #ubuntu [04:29] only trouble i found with final + multiboot is that grub don't ask to get put into mbr [04:29] yes - but just do /dev/hda or /dev/ida/sc0d0 === skaffen [~bug@kn-res.kuleuven.net] has joined #ubuntu [04:30] cah: that depends... I would think debian sarge kicks out ubuntu on my server when released :-) [04:30] cah: can i delete the apple partitions on my harddisk? [04:30] Nafallo, ya, maybe. I've not played with Ubuntu 'server' (custom) install yet [04:31] cah: even though ubuntu kicked sarge out yesterday ;-). there are still to much updates going on in sarge :-P. [04:31] * sorry, just realised i meant /dev/ida/c0d0 above [04:31] callisto: yep, then if you want just re-install OSX back over it. [04:32] Mooper: not me either, I changed my sources.list and used aptitude to migrate :-). [04:32] Nafallo: maybe......but then again, my server is happily running on a cross between sarge and woody :S [04:32] I am leaving my server alone, just messing with the desktop [04:33] cah: hmm, I want to do that to. but damn, woody is way old now :-P. [04:33] me too, just messing with the desktop right now, but might play with the custom install and see how it shapes up as a server this weekend [04:33] cah: do I need a own boot part? [04:33] yeah, but it works nicely with my smart3 raid card === neuro|laptop [~neuro@217.30.126.93] has joined #ubuntu [04:33] cah: haven't got all servers I need. if any :-P. [04:33] it's one of the few distros that installs from the cd. [04:34] hehe. === Striss [~Strain@blk-222-170-205.eastlink.ca] has joined #ubuntu [04:35] callisto: you can mark the ubuntu partition bootable if you want and just install the boot loader to that. [04:35] is kde usable in ubuntu? [04:35] kensai: yes [04:35] kensai: I would assume so (I've only been using ubuntu for a few hours) but you have to uncommen universe I think [04:35] jdub: about? [04:35] *uncomment === neuro|laptop dl's ubuntu live via bt at ~ 700KB/s :> [04:36] Lathiat: haven't seen him [04:36] yeh well its 12:36am there so i assumedhe probably wasnt about [04:36] Thanks, Is that I need to be running qt3-designer and in gnome I can't make it run I think. [04:36] not bad neuro. lucky I have a 100mbps line ;-) (there's always someone with one bigger) [04:36] cah: do i not need a Apple Bootstrap part and a Aplle partition map part for ubuntu? [04:36] cah: i got access to a box on gig, does that count? :) [04:37] :) [04:37] cah: well we have multiple gigabit out of this building, but 100 meg at the transit point :) [04:37] heh [04:37] nahhh better not I don't want to mess ubuntu with KDE [04:37] where are you neuro if you don't mind me asking? the IP smells of the UK, but we all know that in the UK 256kbps is usually the most ;-) [04:38] it is beautifull with gnome [04:38] cah: haha [04:38] kensai: but the install is so painless you can afford to mess it up once or twice. [04:38] Anyone know if there is any non Debian software in Ubuntu? I've got a bunch of sparcs here running Woody...I wonder if I can build up an Ubuntu on any of them by using Debian Sid and fiddling/tweaking all the nobs+whistles (seeing as how there is no ubuntu sparc dist) [04:38] and haha again :P [04:38] Mooper: Well theres no sparc builts for ubuntu afaik? [04:38] *builds [04:39] cah: sitting in a datacentre [04:39] where is the openfimware stored? [04:39] I just need to install a kde based distro in my other HDD [04:39] ya I know, but if ubuntu is _all_ Debian I could roll my own, just copy icons+wallpaper etc [04:39] anyone here playing with polypaudio? [04:39] not in a part on my hd, or? [04:39] so Ubuntu stays at my primary [04:39] typical. so datacentres or unis or hospitals are the only ones who get decent connections. [04:39] no [04:39] there's more connectivity in the UK beyond BT ADSL [04:39] neuro: you don't work for BT do you? [04:39] nope [04:40] phew [04:40] i.e. ADSL via LLU, leased lines, BT SDSL, LLU SDSL, LES, etc [04:40] 'cos I just realised that my 217.37 number is BT and yours is quite close [04:40] cah: do a whois on it and you'll see where i am :> [04:40] neuro: yes, I know that, but how many people can afford it? [04:41] can afford what [04:42] decent internet lines. [04:42] they're not that expensive [04:42] ok, ours was, but that was different :> === Mooper [~psi@203.59.241.79] has left #ubuntu [] [04:43] ok maybe now. 8mbps is 3500 a year from easynet. Leased lines are still very expensive (tens of thousands a year), and SDSL is still very expensive [04:44] three and a half grand for an 8 meg line is cheap as hell [04:44] our fibre was *cough*thousand === affi [~affi@193.69.106.194] has joined #ubuntu [04:45] the only problem with the 8mbps one is I think you have to be right near their London exchange.

[04:47] someone knows why monodevelop doesn't show up when i do an apt-cache search monodevelop, i've got main,restricted,universe and multiverse in my sources.list [04:47] does anybody know if its possible to run Starcraft without WINE? [04:47] mine too Nafallo === fredo [~fredo@212.21.138.39] has joined #ubuntu [04:47] kapputu: it doesn't. you have to tweak your config :-) [04:48] how ? [04:48] Striss: I strongly doubt it. [04:48] doh...I'm on a mac so i doubt I can install wine [04:48] .....unless you are running windows :-O [04:48] arghh, I need to go to the men's room [04:48] when sarge get's stable I would probably run that instead though :-P. [04:48] no windows for me anymore [04:48] no windows, when the doors have been thrown wide open [04:48] :-) [04:49] the poet in me .... [04:49] kapputu: sadly universities who know better still insist on using novell+windows, so you can't escape entirely :) [04:49] g3r4rd0, have you run apt-get update?

(There are lots of possible reasons, just wondering) [06:04] there are no file permissions on fat32 [06:04] Well, files still have some attributes like being hidden, etc. [06:04] unperson What do you mean with "how come"?

[09:16] utis, have you tried pppoeconf for configuring your dsl ? [09:16] seb128: export PATH=~/bin:$PATH [09:17] LinuxJones: yes, that's what I use in the end. It was no problem then. [09:17] utis: you put that in your ~/.bashrc... [09:17] But I would have expected to find something in the network configuration program in the Gnome panel. [09:17] utis, good to hear [09:18] When I didn't find it there, I sighed and fetched a few HOWTOs from tldp.org. === martink [~martin@pD9EB3B9E.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #ubuntu [09:18] I think that Ubuntu should put it into a more prominent place.

So that the name I gave to my computer was not resolved to 127.0.0.1 [09:23] utis: The nice thing about disabling root is that it lets multiple users straightforwardly have root, with none of them more root than the other. [09:23] <_blackdog> utis, i agree i missed the screen where sudo was mentioed and had to reinstall :) [09:23] This had the effect that Gnome did not work properly: I could not get a root shell, for instance.

But I missed that I can use it with my normal password. Besides that I am not sure anymore whether I was able to get a terminal at all. [09:26] paulproteus: hm. I see. I had the idea that Ubuntu is more or less for single-user machines. [09:26] utis: Sure you could. Applications -> System Tools -> Root Terminal.

[09:30] Se7h, you did a backup of the original Ubuntu install ? [09:30] utis: What about running sudo from the command line?

[10:44] It should grab the relevant linux-restricted-modules etc if it needs them too. [10:44] spiv, i should backup any modules which I rebuilt? [10:44] how do i enable mysql in php? [10:44] If you built your own modules, you'll need to rebuild them. [10:45] spiv, ok [10:45] But it won't overwrite them. [10:45] nosilver4u: install php4-mysql ?

[10:47] i have X11 forwarding set to yes, and i am trying to open firefox remotely. i export DISPLAY=":0" and run firefox. I can do a ps aux and it show firefox running but the window doesn't open on the remote machine. Am I doing something wrong?

I think I need to have a firmware for the radio to :-P. [10:49] slade_: You are using ssh? [10:49] i've tried installing 2 different packages (gallery2, and phpBB2) that require php and mysql integration, and both of em tell me that mysql isn't working with php [10:49] Matt|: naah, I figure it out when I want to put time doing just that ;-). [10:50] Nafallo, erm not sure. I read in the README file that the TI*.BIN should be enough [10:50] Matt|: as-in January, when I'm switching ISP :-P. [10:50] Nafallo, but i put in the radio one as well [10:51] my installation is finisched on my powerpc g3, hurra :) [10:51] Matt|: well, from the output of forums I would need radio :-/ [10:51] is ant available in universe?? [10:51] Nafallo, guess so [10:51] cenerentola: leave the default in and just select the new one so it will be used in the future [10:51] in fedora to save firewall rules is service iptables save, in ubuntu how ? === tolstory [~keith@15.253.26.93] has joined #ubuntu [10:52] Matt|: I should curl down the updated windowdrivers from netgear also. it might be an issue with those d-link drivers I tried to use :-P.

[11:35] scalable software distribution systems [11:35] so where does the money come from to pay developers [11:35] Mithrandir, kewl [11:35] basically analyzing different packaging systems with a view on scalability in some specified set of dimensions. [11:35] at least, that's the first part -- after Christmas, I'm going to work on improving one, probably dpkg. [11:36] Mithrandir: go go go !!!

[11:36] right [11:37] Matt|: I just build the bits... Sometimes I look at universe logs, but usually it's as needed, and no more. [11:37] lamont, yeah ogra explained it [11:37] they're not the same, but they share a lot of ideas.

[11:37] <-- total n00b [11:38] jdub: around? [11:38] Matt|: in that case, the package is missing a Build-Depends: debhelper (and probably more...) [11:38] hmm [11:38] Matt|: the bssd ports is based around makefiles [11:38] s/bssd/bsd/ [11:39] sure] === jordi [~jordi@115.Red-213-96-69.pooles.rima-tde.net] has joined #ubuntu [11:39] but i heard that gentoo use python to organise their portage [11:39] but in the concept of downloading tarballs from upstream sites, automatically applying patches and registering the built packages in some kind of database, it looks a lot like portage, even if the implementation is totally different. [11:39] ok [11:39] well all these package managers are great [11:39] apt is nice [11:40] matt: emerge is indeed done in python [11:40] and bsd's portupgrade is done in ruby [11:41] yeah, apt is nice, dpkg has a horrible code base, with a really arcane error handling and weird bits in the corners but works fairly well, most of the time. [11:41] oh [11:41] portupgrade doesn't come by default though, it has to be installed [11:41] i don't know how to use dpks [11:41] g [11:41] this is my first week with a debian based system :) [11:41] apt although being nice is a mess in handling, you got tons of different commands/programs to do stuff [11:42] i'll just leave it to synaptic [11:42] stvn, same with gentoo portage tho [11:42] Matt|: you shouldn't need to touch dpkg itself, synaptic should handle it through apt. [11:42] debian's packaging system is a bit like an onion -- synaptic wraps apt which wraps dpkg which really wraps ar and tar/gzip. [11:43] Mithrandir, if I wanna remove something at the command prompt, i can do "apt-get remove" without worrying about losing a crucial dependency? [11:43] Matt|: never used gentoo, so can't compare, but for apt you get the set of apt-* programs and dpkg* ones, it's quite confusing [11:43] stvn, yeah i take your point === thomaes [~thomaes@dsl-82-57.utaonline.at] has joined #ubuntu [11:43] Matt|: yes, it will whine really loudly if you do that to some Essential package. [11:43] stvn: gentoo has fewer utilities actually [11:43] stvn, gentoo uses "emerge" for adding and removing packages, but if you want to check reverse dependencies you have to use something else [11:43] Mithrandir, ok great [11:44] stvn: for everyday package management, emerge alone suffices. sometimes you may want to use qpkg, but that's about it [11:44] Matt|: just try apt-get remove libc6 and you'll see the prompt. [11:44] that's what I like about gentoo [11:44] ok [11:44] hello, does anybody know whether k3b is able to create *.iso-images or not?? [11:44] Mithrandir, lol that is a great message [11:44] the newer package system *should* be better than the older ones, otherwise they haven't learned anything from the older ones [11:45] Matt|: you can remove a lot of stuff without getting the message though, like X, all the editors on your system and so on.. === ubuntu_ [~LJ@blk-222-206-208.eastlink.ca] has joined #ubuntu [11:45] Mithrandir, oh dear [11:45] Mithrandir, i'll stick to synaptic then [11:45] always use at least aptitude and check what's happening === ogra [~ogra@pD95F88B5.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #ubuntu [11:45] I like aptitude a lot [11:45] so if you try, you can hose your system fairly well, but you can't rid yourself of stuff like sed, bash, apt and so on. [11:46] lol [11:46] matt: synaptic would still allow you to get rid of X, IIRC [11:46] so you can always get it back up and running again, which is nice. [11:46] and of all your editors [11:46] Mithrandir: you can, but you've to keep on saying that you *really* want to destroy your system [11:46] michel_v, yes but when you remove something, it tells you that it needs to remove all the reverse dependencies doesn't it? [11:47] stvn: yeah, and you should probably see that it's trying to remove a few hundred packages.. :) [11:47] Mithrandir: yeah [11:47] the nice thing about RPM is that you can't remove a single package without it telling you all the other packages which depend on it [11:48] Mithrandir: I once got it removing the base system, it spew a lot of errors, so I stopped, anyone who manages do remove the base system is just plain stupid IMHO [11:48] erm [11:48] i have removed ubuntu-base [11:48] lol [11:48] >_> [11:48] <_< [11:49] Matt|: heh, that's nothing ;) [11:49] that's what i though [11:49] just a meta package [11:49] hello, does anybody know whether k3b is able to create *.iso-images or not?? [11:49] sorry thomaes === djzorro [~g@62.123.107.89] has joined #ubuntu [11:49] stvn: or you know what you do -- you need to remove a fair amount of base to fit it onto a 128MB CF card, for instance. [11:49] no idea [11:49] thomaes: I think so, yes, but I've never used k3b so I can't tell you how. [11:50] thomaes: I just fired it up, and I see a "Copy CD" option, so presumably it reads the CD and puts a copy in a temporary file. [11:50] Mithrandir: yeah, but those ppl prolly will not come back complaing that 'the computer doesn't work [11:50] stvn: that's true. :) [11:50] thomaes: However, the command 'dd if=/dev/cdrom of=file.iso' is very easy :) [11:50] where does the money come from to pay developers? [11:50] WW: yeah but useless for home prepared iso images ;) [11:51] stvn: What do you mean?

Have anyone else had any success getting ubuntu to work good on amd64? [11:51] WW: if you're trying to build your own iso, copying a cd is kinda uselss ;) [11:52] Matt|: check the ubuntu site, there's a link to cannoical [11:52] k [11:52] stvn: you mean like with mkisofs ?

[11:53] Sorry to bother: I have a Vaio laptop, but when I shoutdown, acpi_poweroff don't power it down. It's a PCG-FX505. Another thing I checked is that by rebooting (with any kernel version / any distribution), you can't get any Windows NT5.x+ version booting (I have to manually swith it off/on - rebooting Linux is fine). Poweroff with others distros is fine (ex. Slackware), but I think they poweroff my laptop with apm). Any hints? [11:53] Canonical is a global organisation headquartered in the Isle of Man [11:53] ogra: yeah [11:53] stvn: Ah, good point. I assumed he was trying to copy from a CD, but he didn't actually say that :) [11:53] :) [11:54] where do canonical get the money from? ;p [11:54] djzorro: i got a pcg-f707 where acpi never worked :( [11:54] Matt|: from mark === Matt| looks around for mark === HauntedUnix [~hauntedun@HauntedUnix.student.supporter.pdpc] has joined #ubuntu [11:54] Matt|: www.markshuttleworth.com [11:54] Matt|: well he's called safbd or something here [11:54] Matt|, Mark Shuttleworth [11:54] I also think it's buggy, but Sony don't have a BIOS update. There's a way I can powerdown it with APM under Ubuntu (that ROCKS big time!)? [11:55] wow there is one person putting up the money for ubuntu? === Terk [~christiaa@dslam204-11-172-82.dyndsl.zonnet.nl] has joined #ubuntu [11:55] Matt|, he is worth like 500 million dollars :) [11:55] djzorro: type: lsmod|grep apm [11:56] djzorro: in a terminal [11:56] Ogra: I don't have any APM module loaded :( [11:56] ah he is a venture capitalist [11:56] djzorro: sudo modprobe spm [11:56] I got an error when modprobing :( [11:56] djzorro: sudo modprobe apm [11:56] thank god there are some people putting up money for opensource [11:56] PA-A1-OC3MM [11:56] Opps..
