| t17mh | lifeless: Right -- I've rolled back just about everything at this point. I finally got the Applications/Computer menu setup. But Computer->Desktop Preferences is empty (and Desktop Preferences is still under Applications) | 12:27 |
| pdaoust | Nefarous: I figured that'd be the trick... the drives are quite okay (normally they will open), but the OS refuses to open them | 12:27 |

| lifeless | t17mh: also, their is a wiki page with describes the other manual things you need to do (like adding users to the plugdev group) to get everything happy. | 12:27 |
| Skif | pdaoust: however, if things are that seriously hosed, you'll probably want to reboot, because it's unlikely your computer will recognize new drives | 12:27 |
| Nefarous | (I second that) | 12:27 |
| t17mh | lifeless: Ah, that sounds useful -- on the ubuntulinux.org wiki? | 12:27 |

| jcspray | b_e_n_z: sure, it's useful, it's good functionality. What I'm saying is that someone new to GNOME is going to scan through the applications menu for a cd burning app, not see one, and assume there isn't such functionality. | 03:03 |
| Xenguy | thoreauputic: gloin_ ogra supos -- the 'vesa' driver worked (for X4 on S3 Trio vid card) ! Even more amazingly is that this GNOME desktop actually seems to run not badly on a P-233 with ~100Mb RAM (must be the 2.6 kernel?) | 03:03 |

| ogra | -u | 03:36 |
| ShadowHawk | I'm working on Wine's installation script, and it uses su, but ubuntu doesn't play well with that. I'd like to run sudo, but other systems don't play well with that. Is there an environment variable that says whether a system has a root user? That way, I could check it and then determine which one to run. | 03:36 |
| supos | ogra: nope. | 03:37 |
| ogra | supos: the controller ? | 03:37 |
| supos | ogra: nope, not either | 03:37 |
| Lathiat | ShadowHawk: what it needs is distro detection | 03:37 |
| supos | ogra: isapnp does find the controller though, and I've loaded the proper module | 03:38 |
| Lathiat | ShadowHawk: you can find out if a sysem is ubuntu by looking in /etc/lsb-release | 03:38 |
| ShadowHawk | Lathiat: But aren't there other, non-ubuntu distros that get rid of the root user? I'd like to not have to make a hack for each one. | 03:38 |
| ogra | supos: sudo modprobe sg ? | 03:39 |
| Lathiat | ShadowHawk: you dont have a hack, you have a list of checks for the dstribution, and afaik ubuntu is the only to do this so far | 03:39 |
| Lathiat | ShadowHawk: i mean you could check if the root user has a password, but you need to be root to do that :) | 03:40 |
| ShadowHawk | Perhaps there should be an addition to some standards base somewhere for distros like Ubuntu that don't have a root user, so I don't need to check for each one. | 03:40 |

| zenwhen | its a meta package that is of no real use and can be removed without harm | 04:34 |
| nanotech | the ubuntu desktop? | 04:34 |
| zenwhen | yes | 04:34 |
| zenwhen | that package | 04:34 |
| zenwhen | it is not the ubuntu desktop | 04:34 |
| nanotech | i thought ubuntu installed the gnome desktop 2.8 | 04:35 |
| zenwhen | indeed it does | 04:35 |
| nanotech | are you telling me that ubuntu has it's own? | 04:35 |
| zenwhen | but that is not what that package contains | 04:35 |
| nanotech | fully independant of gnome 2.8? | 04:35 |
| zenwhen | that package contains some dependency info that is of no use | 04:35 |

| zenwhen | my head was gonna go atomic in a sec or two | 04:36 |
| zenwhen | ;-; | 04:36 |
| nanotech | ok, it's a package, and installing other software that may conflict with this removed it? | 04:37 |
| zenwhen | i think that package should totally be hidden | 04:37 |
| wasabi | correct. | 04:37 |
| nanotech | ok. | 04:37 |
| dopey | isnt 'ubuntu-desktop' | 04:37 |

| zenwhen | wasabi, general users should be in synaptic breaking the hell out of their installs so they learn how not to do so | 04:44 |
| wasabi | Where you select something like "Evolution Mail Client" | 04:44 |
| nanotech | wasabi, i felt that a major part of growing with your Linux box was breaking various dependencies and figuring out how to remedy the problems. | 04:44 |

| nanotech | wasabi, one sec | 04:46 |
| nanotech | let me find the line i stated eairler in the room | 04:47 |
| zenwhen | LifesizeKenDoll, with good reason. It offers nothing over ubuntu but bloat. | 04:47 |
| wasabi | zenwhen, I think you should read the About page on the web site. | 04:47 |
| LifesizeKenDoll | Ubuntu seemed to be a lot better integrated, simpler, better package management | 04:47 |
| zenwhen | wasabi, um... I dont see in there where it says that people shouldnt learn how to use linux. | 04:47 |
| wasabi | Ubuntu is a Linux distribution that starts with the breadth of Debian and adds regular releases (every six months), a clear focus on the user and usability (it should "Just Work", TM) | 04:47 |
| nanotech | (12:19:07) nanotech: i'm trying to complie some source and the output from ./configure states that i'm missing glib libraries; the package manager show that i have plenty of glib libraries installed (ie, libglib). What do i need to do? | 04:47 |
| LifesizeKenDoll | I am pro-Ubuntu | 04:47 |
| zenwhen | Are you assuming everyone but a select few is too stupid? Thats a pretty grim outlook on humanity. | 04:48 |

| Qo-noS | wasabi: that's what led to MS installs being so proned to virii/worm/trojan attacks along with the exploits i.e. dumbing down an OS to cater to one's perception of the "typically Stupid Joe/Mary Sixpack" allows for the germination of laziness and reliance on others to do what is really one's (i.e. the end-users' job i.e. basic housekeeping to securing one's install. User-Friendliness i.e. Dumbed-down user friendliness Vs Dilligence (mus | 04:56 |

| wasabi | zenwhen, | 04:56 |
| wasabi | Popup menus provide shortcuts to those menu items that are applicable only to the currently selected object. As such, they are sometimes known as "context menus" or "shortcut menus". A popup menu is shown when the user right-clicks on an object, or selects the object and presses Shift-F10. | 04:56 |
| zenwhen | I have. it didnt dsay anything about copying add/remove programs fom windows and hiding everything that reswmbles linux from the user. | 04:56 |
| nanotech | i agree qo-noS | 04:56 |
| wasabi | Since the user may not be aware of their presence, do not provide functions that are only accessible from popup menus unless you are confident that your target users will know how to use popup menus. | 04:56 |

| === FireEgl [Proteus156@70.144.10.83] has joined #Ubuntu | ||
| zenwhen | yes but once the "masses" have the choice to never se the underpinnings of Linux, many new linux users will never dig under Gnome. I think it will hurt the community. Thats all I am saying. Unchallenged users become a liability, not a benifit. | 05:03 |
| ogra | bonobo: ndiswrapper | 05:03 |

| GSA917 | yes, i know. i have an underlying question though. i need someone to compile ndiswrapper for me. in order to compile the file you need some updates, which requires an internet connection. so i cannot compile the file myself.. my only option is to find someone gracious enough to compile it for me, then put the compiled deb file to a disk so i can transfer it to my computer | 05:06 |
| nanotech | i fully agree with zenwhen; this goes totally against the ubuntu theology of community...one should have strong allies who'll help out withe their individual strengths when other can't necessarily call upon these strengths themselves, | 05:07 |
| GSA917 | its like a never-ending loop. in order to have an internet connection i need ndiswrapper, and in order to compile ndiswrapper i need an internet connection | 05:07 |

| nanotech | and hang out here | 05:08 |
| zenwhen | Eventually those able to help will be so outnumbered in the community that quality help will not exist when you do manage to screw up your install. At least it wont exist for free. It goes completely against the ideas of OSS and community driven software development. | 05:08 |

| nanotech | i am thankful fro ubuntu being a "door to linux" however, i want the flexibility to break things if i fuck shit up | 05:10 |

| ogra | GSA917: copy it to your homedir and run im a terminal: sudo dpkg -i packagename.deb | 05:12 |
| zenwhen | GSA917, to install a .deb you .. oh well ogra is fast. | 05:12 |
| wasabi | nanotech, nothing ever will limit that flexibility. After all it's open source. | 05:12 |
| GSA917 | ogra: thanks for your patience. | 05:13 |
| GSA917 | zenwhen: thanks | 05:13 |
| nanotech | i've ran apt-get install gnome-devel, and my ./configure is still displaying that i need glib1.2 or greater... | 05:13 |
| ogra | zenwhen: i'm trained a bit ;) | 05:13 |
| zenwhen | np | 05:13 |
| wasabi | nanotech, that's a gnome 1 program. | 05:13 |
| wasabi | you need glib 1 to compile/use that. | 05:13 |
| nanotech | i also have the *dev packages installed from synaptic as well | 05:13 |
| nanotech | for glib | 05:13 |
| wasabi | you need the 1.2 packages. | 05:13 |
| ogra | nanotech: what do you compile ? | 05:14 |
| zenwhen | ogra, you are damn good at this being the channel ubuntu guru stuff. kudos | 05:14 |
| nanotech | so da | 05:14 |
| === ogra flashes red | ||
| ogra | thanks | 05:14 |
| nanotech | does libglib2.0 superceede the 1.2 packages? | 05:14 |
| zenwhen | I really like this channel. There lots of helpful people, lots of new people wiling to learn, and lots of people who totally disagree with me and are willing to have civil discussions of differences. | 05:15 |

| ogra | zenwhen: didnt install yet ? | 05:16 |
| zenwhen | Oh I did | 05:16 |
| zenwhen | And Have been using it for about a week and a half | 05:16 |
| ogra | zenwhen: not fully convinced ? | 05:16 |
| zenwhen | Completely | 05:16 |
| nanotech | i have all the libglib 2.0 packages installed, why do i need to downgrade? or are these a diffrent family of packages? | 05:16 |
| zenwhen | its like... a vacation | 05:16 |
| ogra | nanotech: this is a old world gtk 1.2 program | 05:17 |
| zenwhen | Thats how I describe moving from Slack to ubuntu. | 05:17 |
| ogra | nanotech: search for gtk1.2-dev | 05:17 |
| ogra | zenwhen: hehe | 05:17 |
| zenwhen | Things just work. If they didnt I could fix them. | 05:17 |
| zenwhen | I keep wanting something to crap on itself so I can swing into savior mode. | 05:17 |
| bob2 | nanotech: you want libgtk1.2-dev | 05:17 |
| zenwhen | I had to install a webcam the other day just to challenge myself | 05:18 |

| nanotech | the source i'm trying to compile and install is on an old tutorial site | 05:19 |
| nanotech | i disagree | 05:19 |

| nanotech | we're talking about that cheesy african drum rool, right? | 05:19 |
| wasabi | nanotech, you are compiling gtk1 code. Gnome 2 uses Gtk2. | 05:19 |
| bigtony | when i try to use like azureus to store content on another drive of mine it says permission denied. i did chmod 666 /media/winFat2 but it doesn't appear to effect anything :( | 05:19 |
| wasabi | nanotech, gtk1 is on it's way to being dead. | 05:19 |
| wasabi | (amen) | 05:20 |

| nanotech | i'll soon be compiling my box for more mulitimedia apps | 05:22 |

| bob2 | nanotech: ah, old school | 05:22 |
| zenwhen | I bet its worse dso for people without super fast systems. I should never say somehting is slow. I have no right. | 05:22 |

| bob2 | bigtony: remove the space between, and fmask | 05:26 |
| bigtony | ok | 05:26 |

| ogra | bigtony: ro ? | 05:26 |
| bigtony | << a newbie | 05:27 |
| bigtony | doen't know what he is doing | 05:27 |
| ogra | bigtony: ro = read only | 05:27 |
| bigtony | just going by websites information trying to learn ;) | 05:27 |
| ogra | bigtony: rw = read write | 05:27 |
| bigtony | ok | 05:27 |
| bigtony | so put rw in there i assume | 05:27 |
| Agrajag | umask and fmask are kind of useless, vfat can't really store permissions | 05:27 |
| bob2 | it's rw by default | 05:27 |
| bigtony | let me try | 05:27 |
| bob2 | Agrajag: no, that's why umask is essential | 05:27 |
| ogra | bigtony: and drop the fmask | 05:27 |
| Agrajag | huh | 05:28 |
| Agrajag | is this for a desktop? | 05:28 |

| bigtony | taes me back to the # | 05:39 |
| yohannes | the thing is i am trying to install an app that i would like to put into /usr/local/bin but since the root does not have java path set to it, i cant do it | 05:39 |
| bob2 | George_Deka: you can't | 05:39 |
| Agrajag | yohannes: just start a root shell | 05:40 |
| Agrajag | sudo su - | 05:40 |
| bob2 | yohannes: export JAVAWHATEVER=blah, then run sudo whatever | 05:40 |
| bob2 | Agrajag: you don't need to do that | 05:40 |
| yohannes | bob2: i did that already for myself, how can i set that path for the root? | 05:40 |
| yohannes | i tried sudo export... but it says the command is not recognized | 05:41 |
| bob2 | yohannes: as dopey said, it's not a program | 05:41 |
| crimsun | yohannes: export JAVA_HOME in /etc/profile and also add $JAVA_HOME/bin to the beginning of $PATH | 05:41 |
| Agrajag | export is a bash builtin | 05:41 |
| bob2 | yohannes: set it in your ~/.bashrc | 05:41 |
| yohannes | wow i am lost to what you guys just said | 05:42 |
| wasabi | is /etc/profile sourced by the X session? | 05:42 |
| bob2 | wasabi: no | 05:42 |
| wasabi | shucks. | 05:42 |
| bob2 | yes, it sucks | 05:42 |
| crimsun | use good ole login shells ;) | 05:42 |
| wasabi | Gentoo has something they're doing for that. | 05:43 |
| bob2 | yohannes: add "exporth WHATEVER=whatever" to /etc/bash.bashrc | 05:43 |

| bob2 | wasabi: ah | 06:29 |
| wasabi | billytwowilly, using what software to drive the raid? | 06:29 |
| wasabi | you need a least one partition to load the kernel or initrd out of. | 06:30 |
| billytwowilly | wasabi, linux. The software raid howto talks about how you can use software raid to boot from using the persistent superblock | 06:30 |
| billytwowilly | http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Software-RAID-HOWTO-5.html#ss5.9 | 06:30 |
| billytwowilly | is the install setup to do this? | 06:30 |
| Majestic | What are the good things about Suse cmpared to other distros? | 06:31 |
| wasabi | billytwowilly, still have to load the kernel from someplace | 06:31 |
| billytwowilly | Majestic, wrong chan;) | 06:31 |
| wasabi | the persistant superblock only houses the raid configuration | 06:31 |
| Majestic | oop | 06:31 |
| Majestic | s | 06:31 |
| Majestic | lol | 06:31 |
| billytwowilly | wasabi, take a look at that page. It is possible to boot off of a software raid partition. | 06:31 |
| wasabi | billytwowilly, no, it's possible to mount a software raid partition as /. You still need to load the kernel out of something grub/lilo readable. | 06:32 |
| bob2 | Majestic: #suse would be a better place to ask | 06:32 |
| billytwowilly | wasabi, http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Software-RAID-HOWTO-7.html#ss7.3 | 06:33 |
| wasabi | are you using raid 1? | 06:33 |
| billytwowilly | for the boot partition I would be. | 06:33 |
| wasabi | okay, that's fine then. | 06:33 |
| wasabi | should handle it fine. | 06:34 |
| wasabi | the installer loads the raidtools at boot I believe. | 06:34 |
| billytwowilly | it would be setup like this: 2 * 120 gig drives and 2 * 160 gig drives. the 40 gig partitions (minus swap on both disks) would be raid 1'd | 06:34 |
| === chemaja [~chemaja@c220-237-32-86.brasd1.vic.optusnet.com.au] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| wasabi | you must however remember that that isn't AS failsafe as hard ware raid | 06:35 |
| billytwowilly | wasabi, ok, I didn't see any obvious way to do it so that's why I'm asking. I'll have to take another look at the installer. I was hoping someone had done it before and there was a mini howto for ubuntu;) | 06:35 |
| wasabi | if the primary disk goes down, the system is unbootable without manual intervention | 06:35 |
| wasabi | (the bios will scan disks looking for a good drive, and neither will lilo) | 06:35 |
| wasabi | s/will/will not/ | 06:35 |
| billytwowilly | That's fine. it's just a file server. | 06:36 |
| wasabi | i've had such setups been bit by that during a power surge | 06:36 |
| wasabi | boom, drive fries, system reboots. | 06:36 |
| wasabi | and never comes back | 06:36 |
| GSA917 | i have about given up u__u | 06:37 |
| billytwowilly | yah, but with the raid 1 I should just be able to throw in a new 120 or 160 gig drive, partition it properly and it'll get rebuilt right? | 06:37 |
| bob2 | GSA917: why? | 06:37 |
| genr | maybe use a ups from then on then, eh? | 06:37 |
| GSA917 | linux is so damn hard, & nothing makes sense | 06:37 |
| wasabi | billytwowilly, yeah, the system will just be down until you do so. | 06:37 |
| GSA917 | :P. ive been working since 1pm to get ethernet working, now it is 11:37 pm | 06:37 |
| bob2 | GSA917: if you're using unsupported hardware, ti can be difficult, yes | 06:37 |
| billytwowilly | GSA917, are you installing or are you in gnome and not liking it? | 06:37 |
| wasabi | I think he's playing with NDIS | 06:37 |
| bob2 | GSA917: you're not getting ethernet working, you're configuring the kernel to load windows wireless drivers | 06:37 |
| wasabi | ? | 06:37 |
| genr | gsa, integrated? | 06:37 |
| bob2 | billytwowilly: ndiswrapper | 06:38 |
| billytwowilly | wasabi, That's fine and expected. I was really hoping someone had done this before though;) | 06:38 |
| billytwowilly | boo ndiswrapper. | 06:38 |
| wasabi | billytwowilly, never with ubuntu. | 06:38 |
| wasabi | billytwowilly, I did not that the ubuntu installer has software raid options | 06:38 |
| billytwowilly | oh well. there is probably a debian howto out there. | 06:38 |
| bob2 | GSA917: if your card had a linux driver, you'd just boot and it would work | 06:38 |
| GSA917 | ya :/ | 06:38 |
| wasabi | billytwowilly, so I believe it is very possible the installer could do it all for you | 06:38 |
| bob2 | billytwowilly: we gave him an ubuntu howto | 06:38 |
| bob2 | wasabi: no | 06:38 |
| wasabi | ? | 06:38 |
| genr | gsa, just get a 10 dollar realtek based chipset nic(like a dlink) | 06:38 |
| bob2 | the installer cannot include windows drivers | 06:38 |
| wasabi | bob2, not talking about that. | 06:38 |
| bob2 | and we cannot support ndiswrapper properly | 06:39 |
| GSA917 | i took apart 3 other computers and they all had the same damn wireless cards XD | 06:39 |

| genr | yea thats linksys | 06:40 |
| GSA917 | wasabi: correct | 06:40 |

| billytwowilly | pastebin.com I think | 06:42 |
| GSA917 | thx billytwowilly | 06:42 |
| bob2 | or #flood, which is way less annoying | 06:43 |
| wood1 | How do I receive Emails from Emacs ? | 06:43 |
| billytwowilly | heh. #ubuntu. all about choice | 06:43 |
| billytwowilly | ;) | 06:43 |
| bob2 | wood1: there are a few systems. gnus is complicated but very powerful. | 06:43 |
| wasabi | im not touching the emacs question with a 10 foot pole. | 06:43 |
| billytwowilly | wood1, evolution is pretty... emacs is ugly... | 06:43 |
| billytwowilly | or sylpheed | 06:43 |
| bob2 | wow, such impartial advice guys | 06:44 |
| wood1 | Yes evolution is goos | 06:44 |
| wood1 | good | 06:44 |
| === billytwowilly suspects wasabi is a vi user | ||
| wasabi | gedit. | 06:44 |
| billytwowilly | ewe. | 06:44 |
| wood1 | But i want to setup my Emacs to receive mails too | 06:44 |
| GSA917 | bob2: it will take a second, i have to put the file onto a floppy and send it over to the laptop. this is fun stuff | 06:44 |
| bob2 | wood1: "receive emails"? | 06:44 |
| bob2 | GSA917: hah, I bet | 06:44 |
| wasabi | bob2, was impartiality required? | 06:44 |
| bob2 | GSA917: the machine doesn't have an ethernet port? | 06:44 |
| wood1 | sending mails from Emacs is easy but I can't receive emails from Emacs | 06:44 |
| bob2 | wood1: you mean download via imap or pop? | 06:45 |
| billytwowilly | ubuntu uses lilo right? | 06:45 |
| wood1 | How do I set it in Emacs to receive incoming emails too? | 06:45 |
| wasabi | grub. | 06:45 |
| wood1 | Yes bob2 | 06:45 |
| billytwowilly | darn. | 06:45 |
| bob2 | wood1: you need to learn about gnus | 06:45 |
| GSA917 | i dont have wires to connect, only a wireless router | 06:45 |
| wasabi | grub should be able to boot off of that too | 06:45 |
| wasabi | raid 1 should be readable just likea normal partition | 06:46 |
| wasabi | unless it has some headers or something on it | 06:46 |
| wood1 | Well is there any commands to setup a POP Account in Emacs using GNUS | 06:46 |
| bob2 | wood1: it is not simple | 06:46 |
| bob2 | wood1: http://my.gnus.org/ | 06:46 |
| bob2 | wood1: and then #emacs if you need more help | 06:46 |
| bob2 | it's in the "gnus" package in ubuntu | 06:46 |
| GSA917 | bob2: http://channels.debian.net/paste/45 | 06:49 |
| wood1 | Well I clicked on gnus but I can't set up a POP Account in Emacs | 06:49 |
| kapputu | bonobo: kapputu | 06:49 |
| bonobo | kapputu: always wants to know...... | 06:49 |
| kapputu | bonobo: bob2 | 06:49 |
| bonobo | kapputu: Error: 'bob2' is not a valid command. | 06:49 |
| kapputu | some truth | 06:49 |
| kapputu | bonobo: "invalid command" | 06:49 |
| bonobo | kapputu: Error: 'invalid command' is not a valid command. | 06:49 |
| bob2 | kapputu: enough | 06:49 |
| bob2 | wood1: #emacs | 06:49 |
| kapputu | I'm sorry | 06:49 |
| bob2 | GSA917: erm, that's nothing at all like the example I showed you | 06:50 |
| GSA917 | i know | 06:50 |
| dle | on Deb. systems, the docroot is supposed to be owned by www-data, is that right? | 06:50 |
| GSA917 | when i do the example u show me there is even more errors | 06:50 |
| bob2 | dle: no | 06:50 |
| bob2 | GSA917: well, delete all the stuff you added and start over | 06:51 |
| GSA917 | bob2: that was the interface file w/o me touching it | 06:51 |
| bob2 | that's not even close to working, whereas the example I showed will work with minor tweaking | 06:51 |
| dle | bob2, by whom then? :) | 06:51 |
| bob2 | dle: root:root | 06:51 |
| dle | hrm. | 06:51 |
| bob2 | dle: if it was owned by www-data then someone cracking apache can modify the website's it serves | 06:51 |
| GSA917 | bob2: i pasted that so u could show me what needed to be changed in the example you showed me. | 06:52 |
| bob2 | make a webmonkey group or something and add people to it | 06:52 |
| GSA917 | bob2: cause that is one the system automatically made | 06:52 |
| dle | bob2, I'm used to it being 'nobody' on other distros. | 06:52 |
| NewComer | anyone knows if there's some bootsplash-ready kernel out there? not ready of compiling my own kernel | 06:52 |
| bob2 | GSA917: read the url I gave you to begin with, that is completely wrong | 06:52 |
| bob2 | GSA917: delete everything between "iface lo inet loopback" and "iface eth0 inet dhcp" | 06:53 |
| bob2 | dle: the dir or the process? | 06:53 |
| jdz` | or just comment it out, for now :) | 06:53 |
| GSA917 | bob2: i KNOW that it is completely wrong. but by showing you what it looked like before it would enable you to tell me what to fix | 06:53 |
| bob2 | GSA917: the one you pasted is how it was after ubuntu installed? | 06:54 |
| bob2 | something is very very very broken then | 06:54 |
| bob2 | anyway, delete all those lines and open up the website in your browser again | 06:54 |
| GSA917 | bob2: it was how it was after i added the ndiswrapper package | 06:54 |
| wood1 | can anyone teach me some basic commands using: dpkg | 06:55 |
| bob2 | wood1: you don't need to use dpkg | 06:55 |
| MoonSweep | wood1: "man dpkg" | 06:55 |
| bob2 | GSA917: ok, the ndis wrapper pacjage won't have editd, tho | 06:55 |
| bob2 | blah | 06:55 |
| wood1 | Just a few very useful commands | 06:55 |
| bob2 | if you need to use dpkg in warty, please file a bug on something | 06:55 |
| wood1 | for example ? | 06:56 |
| bob2 | -i and -r and -P are the only ones you might need to use, the manpage will tell you what they are | 06:56 |
| GSA917 | bob2: really? i guess that means i need to re-install ubuntu? | 06:56 |
| wood1 | suppose I want to remove xmms from my system, how do I do that ? | 06:56 |
| bob2 | GSA917: no | 06:56 |
| bob2 | wood1: mark it for removal in synaptic, or aptitude or run "apt-get remove xmms" | 06:56 |
| bob2 | GSA917: anyway | 06:57 |
| GSA917 | bob2: i guess what i am getting at is that i dunno what the hell to edit in that url u gave me | 06:57 |
| bob2 | GSA917: so why don't you say that? | 06:57 |
| bob2 | GSA917: 15:53:03 bob2 | GSA917: delete everything between "iface lo inet loopback" and "iface eth0 inet dhcp" | 06:57 |
| bob2 | do that, and tell me when you're done | 06:57 |
| GSA917 | alright | 06:57 |
| dle | <bob2> dle: the dir or the process? || I meant, httpd runs as user 'nobody' on some other distros. | 06:58 |
| wood1 | By the way, how do I run different Window Managers like fluxbox in Warty ? | 06:59 |
| wood1 | How do I install fluxbox in the first place ? | 06:59 |
| wood1 | Because my system is pretty old | 06:59 |
| Agrajag | apt-get install fluxbox | 06:59 |
| bob2 | dle: right. debian tries to run them under seperate users to reduce rthe effct of a compromise | 06:59 |
| Agrajag | it's probably in universe | 06:59 |
| bob2 | it is | 06:59 |
| GSA917 | bob2: completed. | 06:59 |
| bob2 | GSA917: now, see the block starting with "auto wlan0 | 07:00 |
| bob2 | "? | 07:00 |
| GSA917 | yes | 07:00 |
| bob2 | what's the line after that? | 07:00 |
| wood1 | So I have to add universe to install fluxbox ? | 07:00 |
| bob2 | wood1: yes | 07:00 |
| bob2 | well, you don't have to, but it's far easier than the alternative | 07:00 |
| wood1 | I see | 07:01 |
| GSA917 | bob2: if you are talking about the url you gave me the line after "auto wlan0" is "iface wlan0 inet dhcp" | 07:01 |
| wood1 | thanks to bob2 and all the rest of you out there | 07:01 |
| wood1 | Good bye from Nepal | 07:01 |
| bob2 | GSA917: ok, cool | 07:02 |
| bob2 | GSA917: now, copy those two lines to /etc/network/interfaces on the machine | 07:02 |
| === wood1 [~bill@202.79.44.65] has left #ubuntu [] | ||
| GSA917 | bob2: done | 07:04 |
| bob2 | now try "sudo ifup wlan0" | 07:04 |
| GSA917 | a hella lot of errors | 07:05 |
| bob2 | for example? | 07:05 |
| GSA917 | Error for wireless request "Set Encode" (8B2A): | 07:05 |
| GSA917 | wlan0: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device | 07:06 |

| GSA917 | sit0: unknown hardware address type 776 | 07:06 |
| GSA917 | yes i have | 07:06 |
| bob2 | what does "dmesg" say about it? | 07:06 |
| GSA917 | what is the command i have to type in? | 07:06 |
| bob2 | dmesg | 07:07 |
| GSA917 | woah that is a lot of lines, hang on lemme sort thru it | 07:07 |

| bob2 | you did do all the other steps, right? | 07:11 |
| bob2 | ie load the module, load the .inf file | 07:11 |
| GSA917 | yep | 07:11 |
| GSA917 | everything | 07:11 |
| GSA917 | there were 3 inf files i had to load | 07:11 |
| GSA917 | and when i try to load them again, it says "already loaded" | 07:12 |
| bob2 | and the ndiswrapper module itself is loaded? | 07:12 |
| GSA917 | when i type "sudo modprobe ndiswrapper" nothing happens | 07:13 |
| bob2 | what are the last few lines of the output of dmesg? | 07:14 |
| GSA917 | so i assume it did something...cause if i type something like "sudo modprobe poop" it gives the error message: "FATAL: Module poop not found" | 07:15 |
| GSA917 | how many lines do u want me to go? | 07:15 |
| bob2 | 5 | 07:16 |
| GSA917 | i gotta write each line 1 at a time, so dont type anything | 07:16 |
| GSA917 | sda: write protect is off | 07:17 |
| GSA917 | sda: mode sense: 0b 00 00 00 | 07:17 |

| nessmuk | can I get some help opening terminal? Desktop/mouse frozen after install. | 07:51 |
| farruinn | nessmuk, are virtual terminal's supported? alt+ctrl+F1 etc? | 07:52 |
| pdaoust | nessmuk: in those situations, when control-alt-backspace and control-alt-F1 don't work, I usually try to find another computer and telnet into it myself | 07:52 |
| nessmuk | farr...yup, that worked. | 07:53 |
| bob2 | pdaoust: /boot/ | 07:53 |
| pdaoust | thanks, bob2! | 07:53 |
| bob2 | pdaoust: but the ubuntu kernel source is very different to kernel.org's | 07:53 |
| pdaoust | I did install the ubuntu source package; would that make it okay? | 07:53 |
| Agrajag | eerrgh | 07:54 |
| bob2 | linux-source-2.6.8.1? | 07:54 |
| nessmuk | pdaoust....telnet also sounds cool. Gotta PPC here on the same router, but couldn't figure out how to set up AppleTalk during previous install (brok it removing Evolution/Office | 07:54 |
| Agrajag | why didn't they just enable config support so you could grab it out of /proc? | 07:54 |
| bob2 | what's the point when it's in /boot/? | 07:54 |
| pdaoust | bob2: now you got me thinking... yeah, I do have linux-source-2.6.8.1; that's just the stock kernel, right? | 07:55 |
| bob2 | pdaoust: what are you trying to do? | 07:55 |
| bob2 | it's the ubuntu kernel source | 07:55 |
| nessmuk | thnx farr! 'nite.... | 07:55 |
| pdaoust | trying to follow the LIRC installation instructions verbatim, and it tries to look for various header files in order to compile the kernel modules | 07:55 |
| bob2 | no | 07:55 |
| bob2 | you want linux-headers-$(uname -r) | 07:55 |
| pdaoust | bob2: coming from Gentoo where you'd 'roll your own' all the time, I'm not familiar with having a kernel image preinstalled :) | 07:56 |
| === Klowner always rolled his own on debian all the time, even with debian it's considered improper | ||
| pdaoust | wow, such a different world :) | 07:56 |
| stuNNed | pdaoust, :) | 07:57 |
| bob2 | it's not considered improper | 07:57 |
| Klowner | at least it wasn't like redhat where it wouldn't boot with a vanilla kernel most of the time | 07:57 |
| bob2 | just usually pointless | 07:57 |
| pdaoust | I'm just used to the hassle of rolling my own all the time :) | 07:57 |
| pdaoust | bob2: it's grabbing linux-headers-2.6.8.1 now | 07:57 |

| punkass | click on Reduced Resources | 08:06 |
| punkass | that will stop the minimizing effect | 08:07 |
| nab_ | yes i found that already but to make animation stop i will have to use wireframe moving as well, and that sucks even more ;) | 08:07 |
| punkass | yeah was just going to say that | 08:07 |
| nab_ | someone says the only solution is to compile a patch etc, thats too 1337 for me :\ | 08:07 |
| punkass | hehe | 08:07 |
| bob2 | you could just stop minimising | 08:08 |
| bob2 | I have ten virtual desktops and never minimise anything | 08:08 |
| punkass | its funny i have never caught on to virtual desktops | 08:09 |
| punkass | i run dual monitors maybe that is why | 08:09 |
| pdaoust | okay, my head is swimming... | 08:09 |
| nab_ | hehe | 08:09 |
| punkass | they make sense tho...maybe just have to forcemy myself to get used to them | 08:09 |
| pdaoust | nobody's had any experience compiling and installing kernel modules (especially LIRC, have they?) | 08:09 |
| pdaoust | whoa, that was a grammatical mess | 08:10 |
| nab_ | by the way, my Totem player refuses to play mp3, and i would like to see why. is remember there is a special console command that lets you see internal (debug) information of the process when started from the console | 08:11 |
| bob2 | you need to read the FAQ | 08:11 |
| pdaoust | nab_: are you using a default install? | 08:11 |
| bob2 | then install gstreamer0.8-mad | 08:11 |
| pdaoust | nab_: in order to install that, you'll have to turn on the 'restricted' repository | 08:12 |
| nab_ | ah yes i remember that from faq, i installed it and installed several other mpg related things from synaptic, but still no success | 08:12 |
| punkass | ive had the same problem with rhythbox and i have gstreamer0.8-mad installed | 08:12 |
| bob2 | it should work | 08:12 |
| nab_ | totem doesnt play mp3 and doesnt play my funny videos which are .mpg | 08:12 |
| pdaoust | punkass: now that's just weird -- any error messages? | 08:12 |
| bob2 | and has for lots of people | 08:12 |
| bob2 | gstreamer0.8-mad is not in restricted | 08:12 |
| pdaoust | 'snot? | 08:12 |
| pdaoust | is it in universe then? | 08:12 |
| bob2 | yes | 08:13 |
| |trey| | pdaoust: yes | 08:13 |
| pdaoust | ah | 08:13 |
| pdaoust | (I installed it; forgot where I installed it from) | 08:13 |
| punkass | omg it just started working...that is bizarre | 08:13 |
| pdaoust | :) | 08:13 |
| pdaoust | don't you just love computers? | 08:13 |
| punkass | hehe | 08:13 |
| pdaoust | they tell us computers don't think for themselves... but I know the truth | 08:14 |
| pdaoust | they're sentient | 08:14 |
| nab_ | thats why i wanted to see the debug innfos. there is that dmesg command that lets you see the output of some commands after execution. maybe there is one for normal apps and their output as well? i could see what totem requires to work | 08:14 |
| pdaoust | well, I'm going to forget about this LIRC crap for tonight; I was so happy 'cuz I've just finished soldering my own homebrew receiver, but I don't know how on earth to compile modules and all that jazz. | 08:14 |
| pdaoust | nab_: some programs will log their stuff to /var/log/messages | 08:15 |
| bob2 | nab_: dmesg is for kernel notes | 08:15 |
| bob2 | nab_: run totem from a terminal and you can see it's output | 08:15 |
| nab_ | ok i will look at that folder, thanks | 08:15 |
| bob2 | pdaoust: you should just have to install kernel-package, lircs-modules-source (or whatever) and headers, then you're right | 08:15 |
| bob2 | totem will not have printed anything to /var/log/messages | 08:16 |
| pdaoust | nab_: actually, it's a file -- if you go 'tail -f /var/log/messages' it'll give you a play-by-play of additions to the log | 08:16 |
| pdaoust | bob2: didn't think so, but tail -f /var/log/messages is always a great command to know ^_^ | 08:16 |

| nab_ | okay thats a good topic, my soundcard :) | 08:17 |

| nab_ | yes my sound works, BUT i have to chose if i wanna hear mp3/avi-audio OR if i wanna hear sounds from my tvcard (LINE-IN) | 08:17 |
| bob2 | right | 08:18 |
| nab_ | everytime i have to go to alsamixer and manually select the output (PCC-OUT or HW-1) for line-in or normal | 08:18 |

| bob2 | the tv card acts like a sound card in this case | 08:27 |

| joha | How do I install the printer drivers from ftp://download.canon.jp/pub/driver/bj/linux/ in Ubuntu? I converted them to .debs and installed those, but there are no additional drivers showing up in the "Add Printer" dialog :-/ | 10:28 |
| Tyche | I'm new to Ubuntu and still learning...but is Ubuntu good enough to be my web server? | 10:28 |
| joha | Tyche: of course it is. | 10:29 |
| jk | Tyche: at least as good as other linux distro's | 10:29 |
| Tyche | joha: Okay, great. I wasn't sure if it was more just made to be a desktop client | 10:29 |
| joha | Tyche: well it is. But that only means that you'll have to install the server software. | 10:30 |
| Tyche | Joha: That isn't a problem. | 10:30 |
| joha | Good :) | 10:30 |

| blatch | not using hoary, but i've been thinking about it | 11:23 |
| gor | i read at suse's site that that happens when you had another kernel running before | 11:23 |
| blatch | is it pretty stable for ppc? | 11:23 |
| bob2 | ah, while they won't work then | 11:23 |
| bob2 | works fine for me | 11:23 |
| joha | gor: Sounds like a fairly recent machine; shouldn't cause any trouble. Can you verify the integrity of your installation CD? | 11:23 |
| gor | but i only had run suse live eval | 11:23 |
| yohannes | is the hoary release good enough to try? | 11:23 |
| bob2 | yohannes: do you want to help find bugs? | 11:23 |
| joha | gor: If SuSE live eval runs, then Ubuntu should run as well. | 11:23 |
| yohannes | or is it too buggy | 11:23 |
| gor | joha: when i test the media i get the same error | 11:23 |
| blatch | is hoary like testing, unstable, or experimental? | 11:23 |
| bob2 | unstable | 11:24 |
| blatch | oh, well, sweet then. | 11:24 |
| blatch | i'll upgrade | 11:24 |

| joha | gor: Do you have another Linux system available? Or can you do MD5-Summing under Windows? | 11:24 |
| bob2 | yohannes: no | 11:24 |
| blatch | just change "warty" to "hoary" in sources.list? | 11:24 |

| TheMuso | Austron: I have two. A TerraTec DMX 6Fire 24/96, and a Delta 66. | 12:56 |
| Austron | ah thats good i also have a terratec soundcard (ice1724) | 12:56 |
| TheMuso | Austron: Do you mean ice1712? | 12:56 |
| {LSMF}SnIpA | hi i want to set up oident on my Ubuntu but the oident map has te be in the map 'root' when i try to put it their i get the error : your not the owner of the map | 12:56 |
| Austron | no i have the aureon sky with ice1724 | 12:57 |
| TheMuso | Ah right. | 12:57 |
| TheMuso | I have no experience with that module. That is probably the Envy24 HT chipset then. Does envy24control work with that? | 12:57 |
| Austron | yes i heard that it should work for it, but i dont have envy24control | 12:58 |
| Austron | i couldnt find a ubuntu package | 12:58 |
| {LSMF}SnIpA | hi i want to set up oident on my Ubuntu but the oident map has te be in the map 'root' when i try to put it their i get the error : your not the owner of the map how can i put the map in the root map now ? pls help | 12:58 |
| TheMuso | That is because there doesn't seem to be one. | 12:58 |
| Austron | do you also have the problem that all the sliders in the many mixers have stupid names? for example i have 20 or so sliders called DAC or ADC but none called LiniIn and so on | 12:59 |
| Austron | *LineIn | 12:59 |
| TheMuso | Mine are called ADC etc, but are labeled front left, etc. | 12:59 |
| _matti | any devs around? perlmagick seems broken in ubuntu? :) | 12:59 |
| Austron | are they named correct only in envy24control or in the other mixers too? (like alsamixer) | 01:00 |
| Lathiat | hmm the battery applet is bug | 01:00 |
| Treenaks | _matti: what's the error message? | 01:00 |
| _matti | The following packages have unmet dependencies: | 01:00 |
| _matti | perlmagick: Depends: libmagick6 (= 5:6.0.2.5-1ubuntu1) but 5:6.0.2.5-1ubuntu1.1 is to be installed | 01:00 |
| _matti | E: Broken packages | 01:00 |
| TheMuso | Austron: If you want fine control over envy24-based cards, you will need to build envy24control | 01:00 |
| Lathiat | i randomly get a vertical meter as well as a horizontal one | 01:00 |
| Lathiat | and sometimes none at all and fiddling with the settings doesnt get it anywhere :P heh | 01:00 |
| Austron | yes i think so too | 01:00 |
| _matti | Tree: nt sure but looks like a wrongly named dependency.. | 01:00 |
| Austron | was it difficult to build it | 01:00 |
| {LSMF}SnIpA | hi i want to set up oident on my Ubuntu but the oident map has te be in the map 'root' when i try to put it their i get the error : your not the owner of the map how can i put the map in the root map now ? pls help | 01:01 |
| _matti | not, even | 01:01 |
| TheMuso | Austron: What you need to do is fetch the alsa-tools package from http://www.alsa-project.org | 01:01 |
| Lathiat | ohh instead of a charging icon it shows a battery with the actual charge percentage, heh looks odd | 01:01 |
| Treenaks | TheMuso: uh. that's in ubuntu by default | 01:01 |

| Treenaks | TheMuso: maybe it's named differently | 01:02 |
| TheMuso | Treenaks: Well if it was there, a search for envy24, or even envy should bring up someting. However nothing shows its head. | 01:03 |
| Treenaks | alsa-utils - ALSA utilities | 01:03 |
| TheMuso | Treenaks: Search for alsa-tools and you will get nothing. | 01:03 |

| {LSMF}SnIpA | bob2 where can i download it ? | 02:16 |
| Tsjoklat | dpkg -l gamin | 02:16 |
| mjr | arthurr, then they are probably not supported under gnome | 02:16 |
| Tsjoklat | what does that tell you? | 02:16 |
| Tsjoklat | does it give you a double ii? | 02:16 |
| Nap | ii gamin 0.0.16-1ubuntu1 File and directory monitoring system | 02:16 |
| Nap | yeah | 02:16 |
| Tsjoklat | then you got gamin installed | 02:16 |
| thoreauputic | {LSMF}SnIpA: sudo apt-get install build-esential | 02:17 |
| Nap | but I still have fam | 02:17 |
| Tsjoklat | but it will also tell you dpkg -l gam that it is still there | 02:17 |

| Tsjoklat | but perhaps gamin is not bug free enough to run on it's own | 02:17 |
| Tsjoklat | you got problems in Nautilus Nap? | 02:18 |
| {LSMF}SnIpA | thoreauputic thanks :) | 02:18 |
| thoreauputic | :) | 02:18 |
| arthurr | mjr: i tried french and i'm sure ubunto installs that language for gnome if you choose that language when you fist install ubuntu | 02:18 |
| Nap | ok | 02:18 |
| mjr | arthurr, or wait, I'm not sure, but try removing the LANGUAGE line from /etc/environment | 02:18 |
| mjr | it's not a question of installing, but yes, french should be supported | 02:18 |
| Nap | because some guys told me here gamin will kill/remove fam | 02:18 |
| mjr | arthurr, try the LANGUAGE thing, I think it might be overriding the gdm selection | 02:19 |

| Nap | okok :) | 02:19 |
| arthurr | LANGUAGE of LANG? | 02:19 |
| mjr | LANGUAGE | 02:19 |
| Tsjoklat | so we got a few months ahead of us :) | 02:19 |
| Nap | so have I to remove it ? | 02:20 |
| Tsjoklat | I wouldn't | 02:20 |
| Despair | Nap: if you have gamin, you probably don't want fam. if you don't want it, you can do a `dpkg --purge fam libfam0c102` | 02:20 |
| mjr | arthurr, if it works after that, it's an Ubuntu bug and should be reported | 02:20 |
| ermo | Tsjoklat, gamin replaces fam? What's the skinny? | 02:20 |
| bob2 | gnome in hoary already uses gamin | 02:20 |

| bob2 | Despair: if it's a significant boost, it's possible for ubuntu (and/or debian) to provide versions compiled for i586 or 686 or whatever and have them automagically used | 02:48 |
| BrianB04 | ermo, I think it's some weird language that comes from an island...somewhere in the pacific. All I mean, is that Gentoo seems to randomly break packages, which are then fixed like 2 days later. Too cutting edge for my taste. | 02:49 |
| idiot | bob2, im not pulling this out of my ass, just look at Gentoo's site its alot of work | 02:49 |
| ermo | BrianB04, hehe | 02:49 |
| bob2 | idiot: well, I don't know what some random gentoo site says, but prelinking prelinks existing binaries | 02:49 |
| Despair | bob2: biggest problem is that they need to use a more recent cvs openal, there's been a lot of bugs fixed since the last release. | 02:49 |
| bob2 | that's what it does | 02:50 |
| BrianB04 | Plus, updating the system can be risky. Whereas with Debian...it just does it. | 02:50 |

| idiot | bob2, lets say Debian in general | 03:02 |
| idiot | bob2, or linux | 03:02 |
| bob2 | idiot: few months to be able to use it, 4 years to get where I am now | 03:03 |
| bob2 | haven't really used anything else in 2 years or so | 03:03 |
| BrianB04 | bob2: So you use only Linux? | 03:03 |
| idiot | bob2, well its been two year now for me and Im still nowhere | 03:03 |
| idiot | BrianB04, I do now, thats whats making me crazy | 03:04 |
| bob2 | BrianB04: yes | 03:04 |
| bob2 | idiot: using which distribution? | 03:04 |
| BrianB04 | Right now, my laptop will be completly Linux for devel, my desktop, now that I don't game all that much, might slowly become Linux only. | 03:04 |
| idiot | bob2, BrianB04, thats because I still really know what IM doing, and I want everyhting to work, and if it doesnt Ill come ask you LOL! | 03:04 |

| idiot | bob2, well first I decided on Fedora, removed that | 03:05 |
| idiot | bob2, anyway Ive decided on Ubuntu. or Debian to say the least | 03:06 |
| idiot | bob2, IVe tried them all practivally | 03:06 |
| BrianB04 | Debian is a good distro. Easy to update, stable...and apt-get is a dream | 03:06 |
| bob2 | Debian is not good for new users, tho | 03:07 |
| bob2 | since the amount of work you have to put in to get a usable system is pretty high | 03:07 |
| Treenaks | bob2: yes it is | 03:07 |
| idiot | BrianB04, but Ubuntu is more bleeding edge support | 03:07 |
| bob2 | and can be very frustrating | 03:07 |
| Treenaks | bob2: if the person is serious about learning | 03:07 |
| BrianB04 | Ubuntu takes care of some of that. | 03:07 |
| bob2 | Treenaks: s/tho/IMHO/ | 03:07 |
| Falstius | I wish apt-cache search was as nice as emerge -s | 03:07 |
| idiot | bob2, Redhat, Fedora is bloat, | 03:07 |
| gluon | I personally find Gentoo easier to use, but compiling everything is a waste of time & energy | 03:07 |

| jdub | it's better left elsewhere | 03:08 |
| Falstius | bob2, it doesn't have as many packages ;) Seems like the descriptions aren't as complete and so its harder to search for things | 03:08 |
| idiot | debian has more fixes than the niche distros | 03:08 |
| bob2 | Despair: is there anything debian/ubuntu could improve in the default config? | 03:08 |

| ElRaton | I created #ubuntu-fr, and I'm subscribed to the ubuntu-fr mailing list... | 03:19 |
| ElRaton | i'm building http://ubuntu-fr.sitlib.org/wiki/, and i'd like to have a CNAME from fr.ubuntu.com to ubuntu-fr.sitlib.org | 03:20 |
| ElRaton | who do I need to ask to ? | 03:20 |
| Falstius | 7998 according to the gentoo site | 03:21 |

| bob2 | xukun: you can try the alpha hoary install disks | 03:24 |

| ElRaton | bob2, thx | 03:24 |
| ElRaton | jdub, online please ? | 03:24 |
| Falstius | scoon, I still run gentoo. I haven't switched. I'm just playing with Ubuntu and considering it for my parents. | 03:24 |

| scoon | Falstius; right on | 03:25 |
| ElRaton | jdub, it's the beginning of a complete portal | 03:25 |

| siulca | I am right now downloading Ubuntu installation CD. I'm going to replace Fedora C2. Any advice before I start installation? | 04:40 |
| lemsx1 | Manny, :-) perhaps /usr/sbin is for root (and sudo uses it) | 04:40 |
| lemsx1 | Manny, sudo alsaconf should work | 04:40 |
| scoon | anyone use xbindkeys ? | 04:40 |
| Manny | lemsx1: I know UNIX :) | 04:40 |
| lemsx1 | scoon, you shouldn't use that | 04:40 |
| Manny | lemsx1: there simply is no /usr/sbin/alsaconf | 04:41 |
| scoon | lemsx1: how come | 04:41 |
| lemsx1 | scoon, metacity does some keybindings for you | 04:41 |
| thoreauputic | lemsx1, no, dpkg -S shows he doesn't have it on his system :/ | 04:41 |
| lemsx1 | scoon, what do you want to "bind" ? | 04:41 |

| siulca | :| | 04:41 |
| lemsx1 | Manny, no offense, is that this is a "newbie" channel and people something don't know... :-) i always assume the worse here and be as explicit as possible | 04:42 |
| Manny | this is very weird | 04:42 |
| siulca | no advice? | 04:42 |
| scoon | lemsx1: i need to use xmodmap to get keycodes mapped to the correct keys. | 04:42 |
| thoreauputic | Manny: seems like alsa-utils is broken... | 04:42 |
| lemsx1 | scoon, create a Xmodmap file and put it in /etc/X11/Xmodmap it will work | 04:42 |
| Manny | could anybody who is on ubuntu please enter dpkg -S alsaconf in a shell? | 04:42 |
| lemsx1 | scoon, you can use xkeycaps | 04:43 |
| scoon | have an xmodmap file. should NOT need to put it global, have and it does not work. | 04:43 |
| lemsx1 | scoon, oops. not that. let me look it up | 04:43 |
| GFXstyLER | does there exist some kind of .mp3 plugin for ubuntu ? | 04:43 |
| scoon | lemsx1: the real crux of the problem is these kb operate in both blue tooth and ir modes. | 04:43 |
| kent | GFXstyLER, gstreamer-mad | 04:43 |
| lemsx1 | Manny, that's weird indeed... i'm a debian user of course :-) (vanilla debian) | 04:43 |
| GFXstyLER | thx | 04:44 |
| kent | GFXstyLER, read the homepage (its in the restricted section or something) | 04:44 |
| lemsx1 | Manny, alsaconf used to be part of alsa-conf or something like that... (alsa-base?) | 04:44 |
| Manny | lemsx1: I used to be, until my system got more and more unstable (well, I was on unstable), but foo | 04:44 |
| scoon | lemsx1: i use bluetooth and the mappings change slightly. i think that may have something to do with it. | 04:44 |
| === Manny reinstalls alsa-base | ||
| lemsx1 | scoon, did you try the Gnome's keyboard control panel? it does some xmodmap for you | 04:45 |

| scoon | lemsx1: hopefully it will work better than xbindkeys | 04:46 |
| scoon | lemsx1: thanks | 04:46 |
| lemsx1 | scoon, with it you can create a nice Xmodmap and place it in /etc/X11/Xmodmap (with the same case) | 04:46 |

| Manny | gen: the archive | 04:49 |
| lemsx1 | scoon, i meant to create a global xmodmap ... if you don't want it global, then create one and call it ~/.xmodmap-mine and then have a startup script call: xmodmap ~/.xmodmap-mine | 04:49 |

| GFXstyLER | ok i have my old problem with the notebook again .. | 04:54 |
| GFXstyLER | it hangs at boot: grub loading ,please wait ... | 04:54 |
| lemsx1 | amiroff, if you know the letters for your locale, you can manually edit /etc/locale.gen and re-run localegen | 04:54 |
| lemsx1 | amiroff, read /usr/share/i18n/SUPPORTED | 04:55 |
| arun-- | what is this rpl8 in /usr/sbin dir, is it not realplayer 8? | 04:55 |
| amiroff | I run for example LANG=az nautilus, and it throws different errors in terminal saying that locale is not supported by C | 04:55 |
| kent | GFXstyLER, A friend of mine had that problem aswell. he could install it, but never got passed that bit. I dont know whats causing it. | 04:55 |
| amiroff | lemsx1: ok, thanks | 04:55 |
| GFXstyLER | is there some workaround for this? maybe a special way to boot or something like that | 04:55 |
| kent | amiroff, perhaps there is no translation for your language? | 04:55 |
| scoon | lemsx1: so the funny problem that i have is that if i log out and log back in, the keys need to be remapped | 04:55 |
| amiroff | kent, I am the GNome translator and translations are 100% complete :) | 04:56 |
| scoon | lemsx1: a pain, but i will just remap them each time. | 04:56 |
| Xenguy | GFXstyLER: I had a problem with GRUB (just took me to a GRUB 'prompt'); I re-installed, using 'expert' install, and used LILO instead -- that worked for me, but doesn't sound like exactly the same problem you're having | 04:56 |
| lemsx1 | scoon, but a startup script works fine? | 04:56 |
| kent | GFXstyLER, if you could try another distribution (or another kernel) and see if it works, then you could file a bug in Ubuntu.. | 04:56 |
| === LinuxJones [~LJ@blk-222-206-208.eastlink.ca] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| GFXstyLER | i can use any other distribution | 04:56 |
| lemsx1 | amiroff, in that case you don't need the locales | 04:56 |
| GFXstyLER | but they always use lilo | 04:56 |
| GFXstyLER | i try that, thanks :D | 04:57 |
| scoon | lemsx1: the thing is, if i startup before metacity, gnome will not boot. so when metacity starts, the keys are not mapped yet. | 04:57 |
| lemsx1 | amiroff, all you need is to set your LANG and LANGUAGE environmental variables (gnome and gtk apps care about that variable only) | 04:57 |
| === TheManu [~manu@194-185-220-152.f4.ngi.it] has joined #ubuntu | ||

| kent | GFXstyLER, then there is a problem with Ubuntu and you should file a bugreport. I should have done it when my friends laptop refused to work, but i did not have the time. | 04:57 |
| GFXstyLER | ok ill do that | 04:57 |
| lemsx1 | scoon, ahh, i get it | 04:57 |
| amiroff | lemsx1: when I do that, it throws error saying that specified locale is not supported by C library :) | 04:58 |
| scoon | lemsx1: annoying, huh. | 04:58 |
| lemsx1 | amiroff, but the gtk apps show translated ? | 04:58 |
| amiroff | lemsx1: no, they just show up in English | 04:59 |

| amiroff | lemsx1: just try it yourself, we have the same Ubuntu right? | 05:00 |
| amiroff | lemsx1: say LANG=az gedit and see what happens | 05:00 |
| lemsx1 | amiroff, oops, sorry, i ment LANGUAGE=xx | 05:00 |
| lemsx1 | amiroff, it doesn't matter what you use, this is from gtk2 library which all distributions use | 05:01 |
| lemsx1 | amiroff, LANGUAGE=az gedit | 05:01 |
| amiroff | lemsx1: the result is same here, actually LANGUAGE is used by more recent apps, can you try it too please? | 05:02 |
| amiroff | if it shows ok there, I do something wrong :( | 05:02 |
| lemsx1 | amiroff, i just did LANGUAGE=ja gedit and everything was in japanese | 05:02 |

| clee | yeah, but it's not in SupportedSeed. | 06:38 |
| Agrajag | so | 06:38 |
| Agrajag | the point of this distro is simplicity | 06:39 |
| supos | he went quick :) | 06:39 |
| Agrajag | once they get a good gui installer, someone with no previous linux knowledge should be able to install it without haveing to askfor help | 06:39 |
| Agrajag | if it asks "do you want KDE or GNOME?" anyone with no experience is going to have to goasksomeone else | 06:40 |

| GFXstyLER | i installed the ati fglrx drivers | 06:41 |
| wasabi | heh | 06:41 |
| Gwildor | GFXstyLER, same thing happened to me......3 times | 06:42 |
| GFXstyLER | because of 3d support | 06:42 |

| GFXstyLER | how do i do that? | 06:43 |
| wasabi | get to the console. | 06:43 |
| Agrajag | he can't easily do that if it crashes as soon as X loads | 06:43 |
| wasabi | uh. linux requires X? | 06:43 |
| wasabi | fooled me | 06:43 |
| Agrajag | when it boots, get to the grub menu | 06:43 |
| Agrajag | wasabi: it boots to X, by default. | 06:43 |
| GFXstyLER | i dont have grub | 06:43 |
| Agrajag | which causes the crash | 06:43 |
| Agrajag | lilo then | 06:43 |
| GFXstyLER | but iam in console know | 06:43 |
| Agrajag | oh, it doesn't crash whenever it starts? | 06:43 |
| GFXstyLER | nope, only when i type "startx" then it crashes | 06:44 |
| wasabi | I've never used hte flgwhatever drivers, so I dont know how to remove them. But I imagine it's just a reverse of what you did to install them | 06:44 |
| wasabi | GFXstyLER, when it crashes, what happens? | 06:44 |
| wasabi | system lock up? | 06:44 |

| GFXstyLER | then DRI initialization failed | 06:47 |
| GFXstyLER | then No Core Pointer | 06:47 |
| wasabi | buh. I know nothing about ATI's drivers. Anyways, to change back to the normal drives, edit /etc/X11/XF86Config-4, look for the Driver line for your device, and change it to ati | 06:47 |
| GFXstyLER | and then Fatal server error: failed to initializize core devices | 06:47 |

| kent_ | GFXstyLER, for newbies usually nano is a better editor. But what do i know, you might like vim :) | 07:05 |
| GFXstyLER | no i just didnt know of any other editor :D | 07:06 |
| kent_ | |progenic|, another program that use dpkg is running, or your not running with sudo. | 07:06 |

| BeanDip | d0gmaz, the first digit sets the permissions for owner, the second for group, and the third for everyone else. | 08:25 |
| RubenV | 7 equals 1 + 2 + 4 | 08:25 |
| RubenV | 1 = execute | 08:25 |
| RubenV | 2 = write | 08:25 |
| RubenV | 4 = read | 08:25 |
| d0gmaz | heh cool | 08:25 |
| BeanDip | you can add those together to get any combo you need | 08:25 |
| thoreauputic | Chibi: 4 is "read" 2 is "write" 1 is "execute" thus 1+2+4 = 7 == all permissions | 08:25 |

| ploggin | and just one last thing | 08:55 |
| ploggin | i know the user name to put, but group?? | 08:55 |
| thoreauputic | ploggin: it isn't magic - your fstab entry needs to match the mount point (/mnt/hda1) | 08:55 |
| ploggin | ok | 08:56 |
| ploggin | but i don't know what group to put in there | 08:56 |

| jdz` | {Fah-Q}: Ubuntu releases about every 6 months (twice a year). The current relese is Warty. Next release, currently in development, is Hoary -- should be released in early April 2005. | 09:25 |
| {Fah-Q} | That is perfect. And I see x.org is going to be in there as well. Terrific | 09:25 |

| zenwhen | It offers nothing other than a placebo speed effect. No on has ever proven gentoo to be faster at ANYTHING than Debian based distros. | 09:38 |

| granlatigo | is outthere an ubuntu repository with firebird 1.0? | 10:43 |
| djtansey | has anyone here used live bookmarks in firefox (in warty)? i can't seem to figure out how to add them. | 10:43 |
| crisp | rss feeds? | 10:44 |
| Protege61891 | epod: I followed the instructions but i cant raise my desktop res above 1024x768 and i have a radeon 9600 pro | 10:44 |
| djtansey | crisp: yeah. | 10:44 |
| Despair | granlatigo: hoary has 1.0-RCsomething. I hope it'll get the release version soon. | 10:44 |
| epod | Protege61891: did you manually edit your X config? | 10:45 |
| Protege61891 | epod: no | 10:45 |
| crisp | djtansey yeah i have two for /. and the register | 10:45 |
| epod | Protege61891: it works at 1440x900 for me. Try editing your X config to set the resolution you want | 10:45 |
| crisp | for those, when a site has an rss feed there's an icon in your status bar, click it and select subscribe | 10:46 |
| Protege61891 | epod: you mean step four of the instructions? | 10:46 |
| crisp | then choose where to put it, i have mine on my boommarks toolbar | 10:46 |
| crisp | *bookmarks | 10:46 |
| epod | Protege61891: no, I mean, go edit /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 and change 1024x768 to whatever resolutuon you want | 10:46 |

| netmonk | what do I have to use to erase a cd-rw in Ubuntu? | 10:46 |

| crisp | whats the site | 10:47 |
| epod | Ubuntu really ought to ship with some decent cdrecording app set up by default. | 10:47 |

| djtansey | crisp: i might do that. install it in /usr/local -- becuase i'm not seeing any such icon on nytimes or on /. | 10:51 |

| EdwardOG | Ubuntu doesn't use xorg? | 11:45 |
| crimsun | Hoary does. Warty does not. | 11:45 |
| EdwardOG | Thanks | 11:46 |
| sladen | EdwardOG: warty uses a forked version of XFree with about 280,000 lines of patches | 11:46 |
| tidalwav | I have to eat dinner | 11:47 |
| tidalwav | if anyone has ubuntu's default Xconfig file please upload it to the FTP server located at tidalwav1.no-ip.com | 11:47 |

| tidalwav | bk | 11:56 |
| tidalwav | so no one has the default xconfig file? :( Now I have to reformat for no reason | 11:56 |
| BeanDip | tidalwav, that's drastic | 11:56 |
| Lathiat | tidalwav: Whats the problem? | 11:56 |
| crimsun | generate one using xf86config or xorgconf depending on whether you're using warty or hoary | 11:57 |
| BeanDip | reformat over a missing xconfig script | 11:57 |
| BeanDip | might as well just run winblows if that's your modus operandi | 11:57 |
| b_e_n_z | tidalwav, huh? just create a new one | 11:57 |

| Lathiat | ack | 11:59 |
| Lathiat | thats wrong | 11:59 |
| Lathiat | thats xorg | 11:59 |
| tidalwav | yeah | 11:59 |
| Lathiat | hangon | 11:59 |
| Lathiat | x/xorg/xfree | 11:59 |
| Lathiat | oh wait | 11:59 |
| Lathiat | are you on warty or hoary? | 11:59 |
| tidalwav | I tried installing NVIDIA drivers, and it killed my X configuration | 11:59 |
| tidalwav | warty :) | 11:59 |
| Lathiat | so replace the last xorg with xfree86 | 11:59 |
| tidalwav | don't even know where hoary is available | 11:59 |
| tidalwav | okay | 11:59 |
