| hypa7ia | camden: it's TEH ELEET GOODNESS | 12:00 |
| hypa7ia | camden: also, you get to bugtest | 12:00 |
| mirak | hi | 12:00 |
| hypa7ia | and there's composite, of course | 12:00 |
| camden | hypa7ia: hmmm.... | 12:00 |
| Keybuk | eclipse: aptitude upgrade x-window-system-core | 12:00 |
| ogra | hypa7ia: doesnt work yet | 12:00 |
| jdub | Riddell: ahr. | 12:00 |
| camden | composite? | 12:00 |
| sladen | Kirsch: can you grep name /proc/cpuinfo ? | 12:00 |
| hypa7ia | no composite? *cries* | 12:00 |
| jdub | Riddell: was hoping to find an industrial/human like theme for kde, and set that as the default for ubuntu | 12:01 |
| HrdwrBoB | hypa7ia: it works | 12:01 |
| HrdwrBoB | it's just.. slow.. and xcompmgr crashes | 12:01 |
| camden | but what is composite? | 12:01 |
| HrdwrBoB | camden: off screen compositing | 12:01 |
| Keybuk | camden: shiny transparent windows, etc. | 12:01 |
| ogra | hypa7ia: way to go for this....with composite enabled my desktop feels faster via vnc then on the screen itself ;) | 12:01 |
| HrdwrBoB | allows shadows, transparency and all sorts of things | 12:01 |
| camden | ohh... but it sound like it's not quite ready for a production env. | 12:02 |
| sladen | hypa7ia: you can enable Composite in the xorg.conf, but it has issues | 12:02 |
| Kirsch | sladen: cat /proc/cpu | grep name --> model name : Mobile Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 - M CPU 2.20GHz | 12:02 |
| eclipse | keybuk, it needs to download like 242MB to install everything | 12:02 |
| eclipse | that's too much | 12:02 |
| HrdwrBoB | camden: this is why it's in hoary | 12:02 |
| hypa7ia | cool, sladen. | 12:02 |
| Riddell | jdub: is that the theme used by GTK in ubuntu? | 12:02 |
| camden | hrdwrbob: that makes a hell of a lot of sense. :) | 12:02 |

| keknehv | how do I remove files after I copy them? | 12:02 |
| ogra | hypa7ia: no gksudo ..... so no graphical sysmanagement with composite right now | 12:02 |

| socomm | tigmore: festival | 12:03 |
| hypa7ia | gotcha ogra | 12:03 |
| Keybuk | eclipse: I'm guessing you're on warty, and want to just cherry-pick xorg from hoary? or are on hoary and just trying to reduce your download? | 12:03 |
| neighborlee | is anyone else seeing problems changing download directory ( from dialog not menu ) in firefox 1.0 ? | 12:03 |
| tigmore | gnome meeting does it allow crossover to yahoo im | 12:03 |

| epod | can you upgrade firefox that comes with warty to 1.0 yet? | 12:04 |
| Gwildor | eclipse, change to hoary, grab xorg, then switch back to warty, your source.list that is | 12:04 |
| ogra | keknehv: rightclick | 12:04 |
| sladen | Kirsch: what modules do you have loaded for it? -acpi, or speedstep-centrino ? | 12:04 |
| jdub | Riddell: industrial is the gtk+ engine, human is the 'metatheme' in use and gtkrc mods to industrial | 12:04 |
| eclipse | ok, so it won't upgrade my gnome 2.8 to 2.9.1? | 12:04 |
| ogra | keknehv: or middleclick and move | 12:05 |
| Gwildor | eclipse, no idea :) | 12:05 |

| sladen | Riddell: is there a hack to qt to make it use the GTK theme engine, so that KDE stuff will look the same? | 12:05 |
| Gwildor | eclipse, idk then | 12:05 |

| eclipse | well it's downloading tons of shit...i hope everything will be fine after the installation | 12:06 |
| tigmore | l8ter all thanks | 12:06 |
| Rene_S | Ruffian|Q|, Because it offers a great oppurtunity to learn linux and troubleshooting skills at the same time | 12:06 |
| Riddell | sladen: nice idea but you have it the wrong way around http://www.freedesktop.org/Software/gtk-qt | 12:06 |
| eclipse | i hope it won't ruin my linux box | 12:07 |
| ogra | Riddell: bah | 12:07 |
| Keybuk | eclipse: if you're worried about that ... you shouldn't touch *anything* from a development release | 12:07 |
| keknehv | I'm trying to move stuff on a usb disk to a different directory (it's fat16), but gnome thinks my directories are files... | 12:07 |
| Towny | is there someplace to view on the web what is available through the "universal" repository on ubuntu | 12:07 |
| keknehv | And once I right click on something, it dissapears! | 12:07 |
| sabdfl | Towny: we'll have a web based archive viewer up in a few weeks | 12:09 |
| sladen | Riddell: how big a project do you think the opposite would be (qt-gtk) and do you think it'd be a project worth doing for Ubuntu | 12:09 |
| thoreauputic | keknehv: on commandline you could use the mv command to move stuff | 12:09 |
| sabdfl | night all | 12:09 |
| Towny | sabdfl, is it just a snapshot of the debian unstable repository? | 12:09 |
| ogra | night sabdfl.... | 12:09 |
| sabdfl | Towny: no, there are a few extra packages in there | 12:09 |
| sladen | Riddell: eg, applications like k3b for which I don't know a GTK version appear to fit in fairly well if people installed them | 12:09 |
| sabdfl | and we are figuring out how to allow more uploads to univers and multiverse | 12:10 |
| ogra | Towny: you can look in here: http://archive.ubuntulinux.org/ubuntu/dists/warty/universe/binary-i386/Packages.gz | 12:10 |
| eclipse | is there a hoary.iso file that i can download? | 12:10 |
| Matt| | eclipse, nope | 12:10 |
| Rene_S | I personally dont care if K3B is pretty, it needs to work and thats it | 12:10 |
| Keybuk | sladen: it still wouldn't be HIGgy though :( | 12:10 |
| sabdfl | eclipse: coming tomorrow, i think | 12:10 |
| ogra | Towny: for the contents | 12:10 |
| Matt| | oh really | 12:10 |
| Matt| | kewl | 12:10 |
| eclipse | lol...serious? | 12:10 |
| Riddell | sladen: well it takes that rare thing of someone who knows the internals to both qt and gtk | 12:10 |
| sabdfl | eclipse: try cdimage.ubuntulinux.org | 12:10 |
| sladen | Keybuk: well, this is the general downside of KDE stuff ;-) | 12:10 |
| sabdfl | you're looking for "array cd 1" | 12:10 |
| eclipse | ok, thnx sabfl | 12:10 |
| sabdfl | array is the new sounder | 12:10 |
| eclipse | ok, thnx sabdfl | 12:11 |
| Matt| | yep it's there | 12:11 |
| Matt| | good one | 12:11 |
| Riddell | sladen: but otherwise it can't be that hard, you just map the relevant gtk calls to qt calls, don't need to play around with eventloops or anything | 12:11 |
| ogra | http://cdimage.ubuntulinux.org/releases/hoary/array-1/ | 12:11 |
| sabdfl | erm... it's brand new. thank kamion, and backup :-) | 12:11 |
| Matt| | eclipse, it isn't risky to update from warty tho | 12:11 |
| sabdfl | Matt|: hoary could break in glorious ways between now and the freeze though | 12:11 |
| ogra | Kanion annonced it very nice ;) | 12:11 |
| Matt| | sabdfl, np | 12:11 |
| ogra | Kamion | 12:12 |
| Matt| | sabdfl, what ways do you have in mind? | 12:12 |
| eclipse | sabdfl, they do have a hoary.iso file | 12:12 |
| Riddell | Keybuk: well you can flip the relevent switch in kde libs to have the OK and Cancel buttons the wrong way around if you want to make it like gnome | 12:12 |
| sabdfl | hmm... x.org is in already, so that one's past | 12:12 |

| Matt| | sabdfl, where is firefox 1? | 12:13 |
| sabdfl | check the wiki for details... HoaryHedgehog i think | 12:13 |
| Keybuk | KDE apps always stick out like a sore thumb on GNOME, and vice-versa | 12:13 |
| eclipse | i'm gonna download that... thx sabdfl | 12:13 |
| sabdfl | cheers | 12:13 |
| Keybuk | personally I prefer it if they *do* look jarringly different, then you don't expect them to behave the same way | 12:13 |
| bigt | whats the command to restart networking and samba i thought it was sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart | 12:13 |
| Towny | thanks | 12:13 |
| Matt| | sabdfl, you seem to be a developer so I wanted to ask you something. if I'm having random screenblanks with xorg, should i file a bug? prob is that I have no idea when it is provoked!! :p | 12:13 |
| jdub | Riddell: 'flipping' the "ok" and "cancel" buttons won't make it anything like gnome :) | 12:13 |

| HrdwrBoB | the problem is making a gnome CD writing application which doesn't suck. | 12:14 |
| Matt| | *laughs* | 12:14 |
| ogra | the problem is to get rid of k2b | 12:14 |
| Riddell | subterrific: we know, http://www.freedesktop.org/Software/gtk-qt is already mentioned | 12:14 |

| Matt| | sabdfl, *laughs* | 12:15 |
| mirak | what exactly is setting something suid ? | 12:15 |
| jdub | HrdwrBoB: currently testing coaster, which may go straight to hoary. | 12:15 |
| Matt| | sabdfl, no | 12:15 |
| sabdfl | so its a lockup? | 12:15 |
| HrdwrBoB | jdub: excellent | 12:15 |
| ogra | HrdwrBoB: so go on, help: http://www.grawert.net/software/mrburns/ | 12:15 |
| Matt| | sabdfl, they last 1-2 seconds and go back to screen fine | 12:15 |
| epod | mirak: chmod +s, but that doesn't work properly in 2.6.8 | 12:15 |
| sabdfl | oh, so it freezes for a while, then comes back> | 12:15 |
| sabdfl | ? | 12:15 |
| Keybuk | mirak: suid = setuid ... running the binary makes you "become" the user that owns it | 12:15 |
| Matt| | sabdfl, daniels mentioned when he announced xorg that there would be some random screen blanks | 12:15 |
| ogra | jdub: is audio working in coaster ? | 12:15 |
| hypa7ia | the big burning things that are missing are encoded music > cd and video > cd/dvd, right? | 12:15 |
| Matt| | sabdfl, yeah the screen just seems to go away | 12:15 |
| sabdfl | then it's a known issue | 12:15 |
| sabdfl | i haven't seen it | 12:16 |
| epod | hypa7ia: yep | 12:16 |
| sabdfl | but im still running warty | 12:16 |

| mirak | Keybuk: so if an application is suid , you are considered as root using it or is there something else ? | 12:17 |
| jdub | http://www.mg.co.za/Content/l3.asp?cg=Insight-TenQuestions&ao=125244 | 12:17 |
| subterrific | f i'm not mistaken audio is almost working in coaster, i think i've seen the developer in the gstreamer irc channel getting people to test | 12:17 |
| Keybuk | mirak: pretty much, yes ... assuming is setuid root | 12:17 |
| jdub | ogra: well, for now it works with nautilus-cd-burner. that's a start. | 12:17 |
| ogra | jdub: yay, finally.... | 12:17 |
| ogra | jdub: thats totally enough.... | 12:18 |
| mirak | Keybuk: so I want to use shfsmount as a user, so I setted it as suid whith dpkg-reconfigure, that's ok ? | 12:18 |
| Keybuk | common setuid binaries you will find on your system include "su", "sudo", etc. | 12:18 |
| jdub | not that it's working on my test system yet, but i think that is a more general problem with my cd burner atm :) | 12:18 |
| ogra | *g* | 12:18 |
| Keybuk | mirak: it's ok, provided that binary doesn't have any security holes, yes | 12:18 |
| Keybuk | generally one keeps their number to a minimum and plays it safe with defaulting them to not-setuid | 12:19 |
| ogra | jdub: i'm gonna test it..... | 12:19 |
| tseng | jdub: blame bryan anyway, its more fun | 12:19 |
| Keybuk | also not all binaries work anyway, it doesn't *actually* run them as root, it makes their "effective" user root -- the binary needs to do something else to properly "become" root | 12:19 |
| jdub | Keybuk: dude, what was the ATAPI incantation for cdrecord? | 12:19 |
| Keybuk | the general side-effect of that is if the binary runs anything else, what it runs *doesn't* run as root | 12:20 |

| TrasMontano | do i have to make a initrd ?? | 01:13 |
| Matt| | TrasMontano, yes | 01:13 |
| ogra | TrasMontano: why did you recompile ? | 01:13 |
| Matt| | *laughs* | 01:13 |
| TrasMontano | ok because on the wki howto they don't tell | 01:13 |
| TrasMontano | ogra: for supporting High memory | 01:13 |
| seek187 | does apt-get keep every upgrade package?? I mean does it delete the older ones? my disk space is getting low | 01:13 |
| TrasMontano | 1 Go | 01:13 |
| Matt| | seek187, apt-get clean | 01:14 |
| seek187 | ah ok | 01:14 |
| seek187 | thx | 01:14 |
| epod | eh? I use linux-686-smp and it works with my 1gb tam | 01:14 |

| seek187 | ah that's better | 01:14 |
| ogra | TrasMontano: x86 ? | 01:15 |
| TrasMontano | Matt|: ok, how can i do this? i used the howto in wiki | 01:15 |
| TrasMontano | ogra: yes | 01:15 |
| Matt| | TrasMontano, it doesn't tell you to make an initrd? | 01:15 |
| Matt| | TrasMontano, we need to add that | 01:15 |
| TrasMontano | i made the dpkg -i ***.deb | 01:15 |
| TrasMontano | Matt|: a second i give u the link | 01:15 |
| Matt| | "mkinitrd -o /boot/name_of_your_initrd 2.6.8_or_whatever" | 01:16 |
| TrasMontano | http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/KernelCompileHowto | 01:16 |
| Matt| | don't forget to add it to your grub configu | 01:16 |
| ogra | TrasMontano: you could use the smp kernel....should also work on uni processors | 01:16 |
| stuNNed | Matt|, ogra: fsck it, i'm installing firefox 1.0 :D | 01:16 |

| Matt| | just do that command | 01:17 |
| TrasMontano | ogra: epod: thx but problem is the same with initrd | 01:18 |
| ogra | TrasMontano: is it really not there ? have you looked after dpkg -i ? | 01:18 |

| Matt| | ogra, howto is obviously wrong | 01:19 |
| ogra | TrasMontano: it should be in the .deb, it should read /etc/kernel-img.conf | 01:19 |
| Lowry | later | 01:19 |
| ogra | TrasMontano: while building the deb | 01:19 |
| nonmon | i installed wine using apt-get now i cant find it | 01:19 |
| Matt| | ogra, see last line of howto | 01:19 |
| Matt| | god they should seriously tell people to create their kernels by hand | 01:20 |
| Matt| | instead of with debs | 01:20 |
| gen | stupid question, how do i take an ss | 01:20 |
| TrasMontano | Matt|: u made it by hand? think it's better? | 01:20 |
| TrasMontano | it look so simple with the deb | 01:20 |
| Matt| | TrasMontano, for you the best way is to do as epod says and get the package | 01:21 |
| Kal_Zakath | TrasMontano : of course it's better | 01:21 |
| Matt| | but if you HAVE to make one, it's better to do it by hand | 01:21 |
| nonmon | where does apt-get install stuff im new to ubuntu | 01:21 |
| Matt| | nonmon, what do you mean? | 01:21 |
| Kal_Zakath | I always compile my own kernels | 01:21 |

| TrasMontano | Matt|: if a made one now it don't work with my .deb installed? | 01:21 |
| bigt | you would do find / |grep xine | 01:22 |
| Matt| | TrasMontano, what is wrong with the smb package? | 01:22 |
| bigt | thats how i do it i'ms ure there is a better way | 01:22 |
| Kal_Zakath | gen : computer - take a screenshot | 01:22 |
| ogra | Matt|: why.... its not upgradeable in a clean way to use non .deb kernels | 01:22 |
| nonmon | in suse, which i used to use, it put it in the applications. | 01:22 |
| gen | kal_zakath: not an option in hoary | 01:22 |

| bigt | whats the fastest way which <application> | 01:22 |
| bigt | ? | 01:22 |
| Matt| | ogra, if you're upgrading kernels there are new options so you need to recompile anyhow | 01:22 |
| bigt | like which xine? | 01:22 |
| ogra | Matt|: you should always use make-kpkg .... | 01:23 |
| Kal_Zakath | why do people use hoary if they aren't developpers ?????? | 01:23 |
| thoreauputic | nonmon: type `which wine` or `whereis wine` | 01:23 |
| Matt| | Kal_Zakath, for testing it | 01:23 |
| bigt | ok so it is which :) | 01:23 |
| TrasMontano | ogra: the .deb way so? | 01:23 |
| Matt| | hey the screenshot command is gone from the hoary computer menu | 01:23 |
| Kal_Zakath | Matt| yeah, at least power users | 01:23 |
| TrasMontano | and after mkinitrd | 01:23 |
| thoreauputic | nonmon: type <command> is even better | 01:23 |
| Rene_S | Because its a nice way to learn about troubleshooting linux | 01:23 |
| Matt| | and help test for the release | 01:23 |
| Kal_Zakath | for power users I can understand | 01:23 |
| Matt| | Kal_Zakath, it's nice to get involved and mebbe submit bugs | 01:24 |
| Kal_Zakath | but usual user should stay at wraty | 01:24 |
| Rene_S | I am far from a power user. as a matter of fact I only started in Linux in June | 01:24 |
| thoreauputic | nonmon: bigt, e.g. type mozilla | 01:24 |
| thoreauputic | mozilla is /usr/bin/mozilla | 01:24 |
| Matt| | TrasMontano, make your initrd, add the correct line to /boot/grub/menu.lst and reboot | 01:24 |
| TrasMontano | Matt|: oki i try | 01:24 |
| thoreauputic | from the `type` command | 01:24 |
| ogra | TrasMontano: make-kpkg --revision=custom.1.0 --initrd kernel_imag | 01:24 |
| Kal_Zakath | Rene_S : well I can consider myself as a power user, but I use warty | 01:25 |
| ogra | TrasMontano: make-kpkg --revision=custom.1.0 --initrd kernel_image | 01:25 |

| Matt| | TrasMontano, we assure you that if you install the package linux-686-smb, your troubles will go away, and you won't need to build the kernel | 01:32 |
| TrasMontano | Kal_Zakath: only removing some drivers (video, network) and adding hi memory support | 01:32 |

| Kal_Zakath | TrasMontano : you can't get vmware to work ? | 01:43 |
| ogra | Kal_Zakath: ok....if you like the extra work.... | 01:43 |
| TrasMontano | VFS .... | 01:43 |
| Kal_Zakath | ogra : yeah, I'm workless at the moment, so I have plety of time :) | 01:44 |
| TrasMontano | Kal_Zakath: no 2.6.8 kernel compiled by me in vmware | 01:44 |
| Kal_Zakath | ok | 01:44 |
| ogra | TrasMontano: install the smp kernel ... will work fine | 01:44 |
| TrasMontano | vmware work perfectlcy | 01:44 |
| Kal_Zakath | ok ok | 01:44 |
| TrasMontano | ogra: i dl the smp, but u agree with me normaly it should work | 01:44 |
| TrasMontano | ogra: and smp will boot? it's my real problem, the support of high memory is other thing | 01:45 |
| sladen | Keybuk: re HIG; would a wrapped Qt app be any worse than OOo ? (Eg. A re-skin with some effort towards bringing it closer to HIG) ? | 01:45 |
| ogra | TrasMontano: i dunno what or how you compiled (and dont want to know) but its useless....if it doesnt work, thats why there are prepackaged kernels | 01:46 |
| Keybuk | sladen: nope, but OOo are actually trying | 01:46 |
| ogra | TrasMontano: as long as you dont fiddle around with your menu.lst everything is automatic in ubuntu | 01:46 |
| TrasMontano | ok... i understand u want i install a prepaged kernel and don't compile mine | 01:46 |
| TrasMontano | ogra: yes i saw, but you don't clean the kernel? it's all enabled by default | 01:47 |
| ogra | Kal_Zakath: i only compile kernels for servers, as i want it monolithic there with only the needed options, but i think its useless for desktops | 01:48 |
| ogra | TrasMontano: yep... for desktop use its ok.... | 01:48 |
| spacey`ki | ogra, i think exactly the same | 01:48 |
| TrasMontano | what is monolithic?? | 01:49 |
| spacey`ki | no module support | 01:49 |
| TrasMontano | oki ! | 01:49 |
| ogra | TrasMontano: if you plug in anything on a deafult ubuntu kernel, the module will get loaded fine.... if the module is missing you have to recompile....you loose comfort.... | 01:49 |
| TrasMontano | ogra: but it boot slower | 01:50 |
| ogra | TrasMontano: so i stay with the default and ipress my friends with sticking in their usb cams without installing a driver ;) | 01:50 |

| noneus1st | bob2, thanks. so no xorg update | 03:39 |

| ryan | eclipse: i believe that is nautilus... | 03:40 |
| ryan | and i believe its just to let you know where the icon will be dropped | 03:40 |
| ryan | open the computer window, for example | 03:40 |
| eclipse | well for example, if i move an icon to a different area on my desktop it shows the 4 lines from 4 angles | 03:40 |
| ryan | and drag an icon over it | 03:40 |
| ryan | and the border will go from the root window to the computer window | 03:40 |

| labanux | i don't know.. | 03:48 |

| erik | must be ... it's very clear | 04:16 |
| hypa7ia | Keybuk: i do have it sorted by date | 04:16 |
| erik | the messages are even right next to eachother in the list because they were chronologically next to each other | 04:16 |

| bob2 | erik: do you have the parent? | 04:16 |
| erik | bob2: yeah | 04:16 |

| Ruffian|JANE| | ic | 04:39 |
| bob2 | scoon: which part of my answer was confusing? | 04:39 |
| tseng | man update-rc.d | 04:39 |

| ryan | bob2: totem-xine was the one that was hit and miss | 04:59 |
| kensai | bob2: It does not started my dvd | 04:59 |
| ryan | bob2: gstreamer has never worked at all for me, with totem | 04:59 |
| ryan | bob2: video-wise | 04:59 |
| Rene_S | tseng, I will, and I will try and keep my viewmaster comment out of it :) | 04:59 |
| bob2 | kensai: computer -> desktop -> removable media | 04:59 |
| tseng | gstreamer only currently supports fairly open and well known codecs | 04:59 |
| bob2 | kensai: is it enabled? | 04:59 |
| bob2 | kensai: do you havea working dvd player installed? | 04:59 |

| hypa7ia | to confirm, ati binary drivers are broken with xorg right? so i should hold it backif going to hoary? | 05:03 |
| bob2 | well, someone claimed it worked today | 05:04 |
| AndyFitz | tseng. thanks for the info I can wait | 05:04 |
| bob2 | but I was sure daniel said it wouldn't | 05:04 |
| tseng | AndyFitz: gimp can take screenshots in the meantime | 05:04 |
| tseng | hypa7ia: last i checked ati binary drivers conflicted with xorg > 6.8 | 05:04 |
| bob2 | or "import -window root" from imagemagick | 05:04 |
| tseng | hypa7ia: but the ati oss driver is very good these days | 05:04 |

| AndyFitz | thanks tseng, I always thought it was funny that gnome-panel was the package that handled screenshots | 05:05 |
| hypa7ia | tseng: should i then just remove fglrx before going to hoary? | 05:05 |
| tseng | AndyFitz: i also like a package called scrot | 05:06 |

| supos | hold on a sec, I saw something about that in a review | 06:14 |
| Rene_S | tom_, when i get a new install i normally take out pcmcia, raid, evms, and mdadm | 06:14 |
| hypa7ia | oh, yup, ppp was there | 06:14 |
| Xenguy | supos: tx a lot | 06:14 |

| tom_ | i use adsl | 06:14 |
| Xenguy | tom_: do you use pppoe ? | 06:15 |
| Rene_S | then dont play with the ppp or ppoe stuff | 06:15 |

| === Xenguy boggles... | ||
| supos | isn't pppconfig on the cd? | 06:15 |
| bob2 | supos: it is | 06:15 |
| bob2 | see, this makes me think you just need ppp | 06:16 |
| Xenguy | supos: yes | 06:16 |
| thoreauputic | supos: pppconfig is for dialup, I think - pppoeconf is a different matter | 06:16 |

| supos | Never mind me then :) | 06:17 |
| bob2 | Xenguy: ok, just pppoeconf on a default system should work | 06:17 |
| bob2 | ie without pppoe | 06:17 |
| Xenguy | supos: well so far I haven't been able to connect, but it could be another unknown issue -- I had thought maybe it was the fact that pppoe wasn't installed on my system | 06:17 |

| Witigonen | Hey all. I have a pretty basic question about grub. | 06:22 |
| Xenguy | bob2: thanks for clearing up this issue - now I just have to figure out what the real problem is :-) | 06:22 |
| Witigonen | So, I've got an XP install on an IDE drive when my primary drive is SATA. So, its (hd0,0). What's my IDE drive, then? | 06:22 |
| Rene_S | Basic answers, Yes, No, Maybe | 06:23 |
| wasabi_ | Witigonen, for grub, it should be hd1 | 06:23 |
| wasabi_ | grub is numbered consecutively | 06:23 |
| bob2 | Witigonen: windows doesn't like booting off anything but the first disk | 06:23 |
| Witigonen | bob2, in Windows' view, it is the first disk since it doesnt' recognize the SATA drive without third-party drivers. | 06:23 |
| wasabi_ | bob2, first disk on any given controller. | 06:23 |
| Xenguy | hypa7ia: shipping yes, but stopped taking orders for free delivery on the 11th or 12th (check the web site, maybe there is still time, but the deadline is like *now*) | 06:23 |

| neighborlee | aokaze, well for starters most things you'll be doing everyday just 'work' ..if that helps <G> | 07:14 |

| Xenguy | rodney_, debian 'unstable' | 07:24 |

| the_grey_ghost | Can Ubuntu Read NTFS drives? | 10:30 |
| b_e_n_z | the_grey_ghost, yes | 10:30 |
| subterrific | the_grey_ghost: yes, but not write to them | 10:30 |
| the_grey_ghost | Okay, What about fat 32 | 10:30 |
| NanoTek | you have to create your own kernel to write on it | 10:30 |
| NanoTek | the_grey_ghost, no problem | 10:30 |
| subterrific | the_grey_ghost: fat32 yes, and read/write works | 10:30 |
| NanoTek | you can xrite on ntfs but it is expermimental and you have to compile your kernel | 10:31 |
| the_grey_ghost | Okay so if I wanted to transfer data between NTFS and Ubuntu then all I would need would be a FAT 32 buffer | 10:31 |
| NanoTek | it is the best choice | 10:31 |
| the_grey_ghost | or is there a problem there? | 10:31 |

| stvn | Hikaru79: how do you mean software to be installed, like packagers and executables or like linux install CDs | 12:46 |
| Hikaru79 | Windows software, actually | 12:47 |
| Hikaru79 | Just two CD's with a Windows program' | 12:47 |
| stvn | Hikaru79: normally you can just put the .exe on the CD via nautilus, unless you need it to be installed before windows is started | 12:47 |

| challange | I have a partition | 12:56 |

| challange | and I want to make a boot menu or sth | 12:57 |
| challange | to use xp too | 12:57 |
| jind | svenl, You enable the burnproof function so the burning does not get buffer underruns - if your burner supports it | 12:57 |
| svenl | jind: ah, thanks. | 12:57 |
| challange | and when I installed windows | 12:58 |

| challange | yeah well that can be a solution:D | 12:59 |
| challange | but I need to | 12:59 |
| svenl | challange: you just have to rerun grub, so it installs itself in the boot record. | 12:59 |

| fabbione | plfiorini: no | 01:15 |
| Kamion | fabbione: ? | 01:15 |
| fabbione | there will be a GUI but it will be gtk based | 01:15 |
| fabbione | oh well | 01:16 |
| jordi | fabbione: not even as a medium term goal? | 01:16 |
| Kamion | that's not clear | 01:16 |
| fabbione | if you want to consider gnome = gtk | 01:16 |
| fabbione | than yws | 01:16 |
| fabbione | yes | 01:16 |
| Kamion | fabbione: it's entirely possible that it will have at least some GNOME components | 01:16 |
| jordi | ok, I guess we all understood gnome=gtk in this case :) | 01:16 |
| fabbione | Kamion: ah | 01:16 |
| jordi | Kamion: like what? | 01:16 |

| Kamion | spiritz: as said, there's a recovery mode once you have an installed system (press Escape, you'll see it on the menu); using the CD as a rescue disk is *possible* but really requires you to be an installer part-expert | 04:05 |

| mjr | erik, it is | 04:07 |
| spiritz | erik : sure, it's XFREE. | 04:07 |
| erik | hm | 04:07 |

| spiritz | Kamion : awesome, thank you I'll that | 04:09 |

| Zugwrack | Is there a wiki on getting and installing rythmbox? | 06:52 |
| ermo | pdaoust, you owe yourself to check the debian documentation. There's a policy document, which gives a lot of background info | 06:52 |
| pdaoust | ermo: I like it already. Moved from Gentoo, which I stuck with for so long because of its lovely package manager.

| pdaoust | Zugwrack: it does come with the default install of Ubuntu; what sort of problems are you having? | 06:53 |

| Zugwrack | pdaoust: Hmmm..lemme see didn't know it installed default | 06:54 |
| ermo | pdaoust, I've used debian on my servers for years. | 06:54 |
| pdaoust | Zugwrack: it's just called 'Music Player' in the GNOME menu. | 06:54 |

| Eblis | wfx, i tried your method (disabling acpi and enabling apm) but it doens't work | 09:33 |
| Eblis | and my mouse stopped working (???) | 09:33 |
| JDahl | xukun, can you insert the module manually with insmod using the full filename of the module? | 09:33 |
| Eblis | but maybe it didn't work because i can't modprobe apm now, and you said that you can | 09:34 |
| xukun | JDahl: I will try that | 09:34 |
| wfx | Eblis, so noacpi and acpi=off as kernel option on boot and apm in moudles not work for you. hmmm. | 09:34 |
| Eblis | yes | 09:35 |
| Eblis | maybe it didn't find apm | 09:35 |

| Hikaru79 | tolstoy, I don't know I haven't tried it yet | 11:23 |
| Hikaru79 | I have to install the driver first | 11:23 |
| Hikaru79 | But the CD they give is Windows-only | 11:23 |
| tolstoy | Hikaru79, seems like I heard it had something to do with "LiteOn" as an underlying technology. | 11:23 |
| socomm | Hikaru79: most vendors don't provide GNU/Linux drivers. | 11:23 |
| mako | clee: whats up? | 11:23 |
| Hikaru79 | socomm, does that mean that there AREN'T any, or that you just have to find ones made independently from the vendor? | 11:24 |
| clee | mako: You guys shipped me 50 x86, 10 amd64, and 10 ppc CDROMs | 11:24 |
| tolstoy | Hikaru79, can you not just install it, start your machine and have it work? Hm. In redhat, you'd run Kudzu. | 11:24 |

| clee | mako: they're going like hotcakes :) | 11:24 |
| Hikaru79 | So there's a chance it'll work without any driver that I have to install personally? | 11:24 |
| socomm | Hikaru79: no it just means that they don't support GNU/Linux, but GNU/Linux may have a driver for it though. | 11:24 |

| corbob | locutus1976, are the pages loading slowly... | 11:30 |
| corbob | and are you on the 2.6 kernel... | 11:30 |
| thoreauputic | locutus1976: also , does it vary with browser ? e.g. if you onstall, say, dillo, is it significantly faster? | 11:31 |
| thoreauputic | *install | 11:31 |
| locutus1976 | I am using the default firefox | 11:31 |
| zez | there is ubuntu for mac? | 11:31 |
| thoreauputic | locutus1976: yes, but my question is diagnostic | 11:31 |
| locutus1976 | I don't know how to install anything on my machine | 11:32 |
| sm | or maybe I don't see | 11:32 |
| corbob | locutus1976, it is probably an issue with firefox first looking for the ipv6 info... | 11:32 |
| thoreauputic | locutus1976: if another browser is faster, then you know it's a firefox issue | 11:32 |
| === sm reread encryptio: tail -f FILE | grep <whatever> | less (NO +F) | ||
| corbob | it is not needed in most cases and causes it to go slow | 11:32 |
| sm | I see in that case less kind of goes into F mode automatically | 11:32 |
| corbob | if you disable ipv6 support in the kernel you should notice a speed increase | 11:32 |
| sm | but there is still some weirdness, with or without grep | 11:33 |
| sm | slow display of newoutput, or confusion about whether it's in following/scrolling mode | 11:33 |
| encryptio | that's just because of less | 11:33 |
| encryptio | you can leave less if you want | 11:33 |
| Cube-ness | weird | 11:34 |
| lemsx1 | sm, you do not need the last | less | 11:34 |
| Cube-ness | oss is like, no worky | 11:34 |
| corbob | locutus1976, look in /etc/modules.conf and see if there's a line that says alias net-pf-10 off # IPv6... | 11:34 |
| encryptio | or you can pipe the output of your tail-f|grep and use less +F to read that file | 11:34 |
| encryptio | like: | 11:34 |
| lemsx1 | sm, because what that says is: if the output of the two previous arguments is longer than whatever the size of my screen, then page it one at a time | 11:34 |
| corbob | comment that line, and after a reboot firefox should run at a decent speed | 11:34 |
| sm | lemsx1: no, except to scroll nicely through what I'm filtering | 11:34 |
| sm | search it, etc | 11:35 |
| encryptio | tail -f FILE | grep <word> > /tmp/thisismylog & less +F /tmp/thisismylog | 11:35 |
| lemsx1 | sm, in that case, then use tee | 11:35 |
| encryptio | that'll spawn | 11:35 |
| encryptio | so if you want to kill it you have to type "fg" and ctrl-c from there | 11:35 |
| lemsx1 | encryptio, that should be grep <word> >& /tmp/this... & less +F /tmp/this... | 11:35 |
| encryptio | yeah, that | 11:36 |
| thoreauputic | locutus1976: well, read the wiki about synaptic (to find out about installing) http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/SynapticHowto/view?searchterm=synaptic | 11:36 |
