| Matt| | JStrike, no such thing as a computer which is too old | 12:37 |
| (HrdwrBoB/#ubuntu) yes there is | 12:38 | |
| (HrdwrBoB/#ubuntu) esp with the development of low power low noise etc servers/routers | 12:38 | |
| (crimsun/#ubuntu) mroth: warty has nothng to do with the resolution. It depends on your graphics hardware, your monitor, and your configuration | 12:39 | |
| (crimsun/#ubuntu) nothing^ | 12:39 | |
| (HrdwrBoB/#ubuntu) you can replace an old linux box router with a WRT45GS which takes SFA power, makes no noise and has all the features | 12:39 | |
| (crimsun/#ubuntu) or you could save money by using the old linux box as a router | 12:39 | |
| Matt| | yep | 12:39 |
| (crimsun/#ubuntu) it really doesn't matter in many contexts | 12:40 | |
| Matt| | nothing wrong with old computers | 12:40 |
| Matt| | they are sweet | 12:40 |
| ermo | HrdwrBoB, ... if you can live with a 2.4.20 kernel and not have complete QoS control for instance? | 12:40 |
| Matt| | loads of personality | 12:40 |
| (HrdwrBoB/#ubuntu) crimsun: considering it costs $155AUD | 12:40 | |
| mroth | crimsun: well, it worked fine in debian sarge, and I copied the same XF86Config file settings, so something must be different somewhere | 12:40 |
| (HrdwrBoB/#ubuntu) I think the cost is negligble | 12:40 | |
| (HrdwrBoB/#ubuntu) +i | 12:40 | |
| mroth | the difficulty is in locating that somewhere | 12:40 |
| (crimsun/#ubuntu) mroth: did you examine the logfile? | 12:40 | |
| ermo | crimson, Matt|: don't forget the electriciy. Over the course of a year, a wrt54gs is significantly less expensive when turned on 24/7 (which a router often is) | 12:41 |
| JStrike | Matt| : Personality? That is an interesting way to describe it | 12:41 |
| Matt| | sure | 12:41 |
| mroth | crimsun: yeah, it appears to not know about the 1920x1200 mode | 12:41 |

| (HrdwrBoB/#ubuntu) nothing like moving parts to get clogged with dust | 12:42 | |
| (HrdwrBoB/#ubuntu) and stop working | 12:42 | |

| btfan | [23:43:25] <btfan> hi | 12:45 |
| btfan | [23:43:42] <btfan> is it possible that windows network printing colud be improved? | 12:45 |
| btfan | [23:44:11] <btfan> basically, is it possible for ubuntu to scan the subnet, find the smb hosts and search for printers and put them in the 'detected' printers dialog? | 12:45 |
| (mjr/#ubuntu) it would be possible to improve it thus, yes | 12:46 | |
| (crimsun/#ubuntu) btfan: so you're suggesting a utility that sits on top of samba to do that? | 12:46 | |
| btfan | no i'm suggesting that the current 'new printer' thing does it | 12:46 |
| btfan | it would make it a hell of a lot easier for those migrating from windows and don't know what host the windows printer is currently on | 12:46 |
| (mjr/#ubuntu) in the same way nautilus can currently find file shares | 12:47 | |
| btfan | exactly | 12:47 |
| (crimsun/#ubuntu) it's certainly doable, but it's more a gnome issue | 12:47 | |
| (crimsun/#ubuntu) afaics | 12:47 | |
| btfan | nautilus is bloody spot on in that respect... i double click network, bang, all my servers. | 12:47 |
| (crimsun/#ubuntu) hook it into gnome, and all the distros have access to it. everyone wins. | 12:47 | |

| mass | I only chose reiser this time because I wanted the possibility of migrating forward easily to 4 | 01:50 |

| NewNick | but we arnt talking about fedora are we. | 02:13 |
| stuNNed | SirG3, maybe the driver is called something else for PPC, i'm not sure. I do see on ATI's site there are drivers for MacOS. I'd check around for Linux equivalent drivers for PPC, if you haven't already done so. | 02:13 |
| (crimsun/#ubuntu) and since FC2 and newer use X.Org, I can only conclude that the ATI drivers work just fine with X.Org | 02:13 | |

| (KneelBeforeXorg/#ubuntu) darkjedi_NSC: there used to be a good "beginning your journey" document in the ubuntu wiki. Maybe someone here can find it for you in the new wiki | 02:29 | |
| zenwhen | In fact, I wasnt suggesting wasabi do it either. | 02:29 |
| darkjedi_NSC | thanks kneel, let me see if i can find it myself too | 02:29 |
| zenwhen | But if his joystick isnt supported, it might be a good idea. | 02:29 |
| (GammaRay/#ubuntu) wasabi: from joystick.txt I see that "Logitech WingMan GamePad USB" is supported by the adi module | 02:29 | |
| wasabi | Well, this joystick has never required special drivers before. Just generic joydev. | 02:30 |
| wasabi | nope. | 02:30 |
| robertj | wasabi: I'm trying to bootstrap ubuntu and it's being whiny | 02:31 |
| (GammaRay/#ubuntu) joydev isn't a driver | 02:31 | |
| darkjedi_NSC | Thanks Kneel - I found a doc called "learning ubuntu linux" in the wiki, im going to tear through it now | 02:31 |
| (GammaRay/#ubuntu) For all joystick drivers to function, you'll need the userland interface | 02:31 | |
| robertj | I think I may be doing something wrong, Is archive.ubuntu.org not a valid mirror for bootstraping purposes? | 02:31 |
| (GammaRay/#ubuntu) module in kernel, either loaded or compiled in: | 02:32 | |
| (GammaRay/#ubuntu) and then it tell you to modprobe joydev.. | 02:32 | |
| wasabi | GammaRay, naw. Joydev on my Debian kernel was all. It detected the USB hotplug event and exposed /dev/input/js0 | 02:32 |
| wasabi | now it's not doing either | 02:32 |
| wasabi | It's that generic | 02:32 |
| darkjedi_NSC | one more question, im running ubuntu on an older compaq notebook, it has a synaptics touchpad that is acting funny. anyone know how i can get a new/better driver for it? | 02:32 |
| wasabi | i just can't fathom what's differetn about ubuntu's kernel than my last one | 02:33 |
| madsen | Hmm, how does one do `apt-get clean` from synaptic? | 02:33 |
| (GammaRay/#ubuntu) wasabi: it's probably just a flaw in the hosplug support... you might report this as a bug. | 02:33 | |
| wasabi | same 2.6.8.1 that I used, all the support needed is listed in config | 02:33 |
| wasabi | Gamma, dmesg is kernel level, not hotplug. | 02:33 |

| YokoZar | madsen: yeah that's what I meant | 02:39 |
| YokoZar | madsen: It doesn't work in recovery mode, which is single user mode. | 02:39 |

| SeaBass | thx | 02:39 |
| eruin | JStrike, yeah, good read. got it all spinning around in my poor head now ;) | 02:39 |
| SeaBass | does it get compiled from source? | 02:40 |
| YokoZar | Actually, I think I'll just install screen... | 02:40 |
| madsen | YokoZar: I think so, cause single user mode pretty much implies one login. No more, no less... At least that's my interpretation of it. | 02:40 |
| JStrike | Mike Hearn is pretty awsome | 02:40 |
| jmhodges | GammaRay, hehe | 02:40 |
| madsen | GammaRay: I think it's way better than e.g. Lilo | 02:40 |
| jmhodges | i knew how to do this with lilo | 02:40 |

| YokoZar | I'll be back | 02:41 |
| SeaBass | is ubuntu a source or binary distro? | 02:41 |
| madsen | GammaRay: Exactly, I just wanted to hear why you thought grub sucked. | 02:41 |
| jmhodges | madsen, chroot and running grub-install, running grub-install from the cd with --config-file pointed to the one i had on the harddrive | 02:41 |
| madsen | SeaBass: bin | 02:41 |
| jmhodges | neither seemed to work | 02:41 |
| jdz_ | SeaBass: Binary | 02:41 |
| SeaBass | thx | 02:41 |
| (GammaRay/#ubuntu) SeaBass: both :-P | 02:41 | |

| madsen | jmhodges: With what as the target device? | 02:41 |
| zenwhen | haha | 02:41 |
| (GammaRay/#ubuntu) does a source distro run only interperted code? | 02:42 | |
| jmhodges | oh, the latter was grub fromt he cd with the --config-file.. (which was stupid i know) and then i tried grub-install with the -directory deal pointed at the grub dir in /boot on the hd | 02:42 |

| madsen | jmhodges: I don't think you can do it from a chroot, but I'm not sure. | 02:43 |

| wasabi | scognito_, the extension is. The applications required are not. | 02:45 |
| YokoZar | ok I got my screen action going, ready to reinstall whatever packages I need to get xorg working (or at least a login screen...) | 02:45 |
| scognito_ | ok tnx | 02:45 |
| JStrike | scognito_ : It doesn't matter. None of the major Window Managers have composite support | 02:45 |
| eruin | autopackage is exciting | 02:45 |
| madsen | jmhodges: Try something like: grub-install --root-directory=/mnt/hda1/boot/grub/ /dev/hda (but change the --root-dir path to your installations grub-dir.) | 02:45 |

| jmhodges | madsen, actually i think thats correct | 02:46 |
| JStrike | ha | 02:46 |
| madsen | jmhodges: It's great if it is. :) | 02:46 |
| JStrike | xcompmgr is a load of shit | 02:46 |
| eruin | JStrike, xfwm | 02:46 |
| jmhodges | madsen, from yours.. i tried this before "cp: listing attributes of `//lib/grub/i386-pc/stage1': Unknown error 524" | 02:46 |
| JStrike | It is a means for testing, Not for using | 02:47 |
| wasabi | xcompmgr is great if you have a device with sane RENDER | 02:47 |
| wasabi | Of which there is none | 02:47 |
| jdub | metacity supports composite (though it's currently b0rk) | 02:47 |

| robertj | eeky panick! | 02:47 |

| eruin | JStrike, well, after kwm and metacity I'd say it's the most popular ;P | 02:47 |
| madsen | jmhodges: Hmm... | 02:47 |
| ajmitch_ | xcompmgr worked at a decent speed with a geforce2 | 02:47 |
| JStrike | jdub: It has been disabled for a while | 02:47 |

| robertj | Insatlled a sid chroot, changed my sources.list, dist-upgraded to warty stuff, then tried to install ubuntu-desktop and dependencies aren't resolving :( | 02:47 |
| jdub | it has always been a devel feature | 02:48 |
| jmhodges | wasabi, btw, that didnt work either with this line in mtab "/boot /mnt/hda1 ext3 rw,nosuid,nodev 0 0" | 02:48 |
| wasabi | that's because you did /mnt/hda1 | 02:48 |

| robertj | or rather attempting to | 02:49 |
| jmhodges | wasabi, ah, ok | 02:49 |
| scognito_ | /etc/X11/Xf86config-4 is still ok? | 02:49 |
| wasabi | scognito_, xorg uses /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 02:49 |

| (crimsun/#ubuntu) robertj: it's doable. What's(re) the error(s)? use #flood if necessary | 02:50 | |

| (crimsun/#ubuntu) wasabi: nope, just kernel-package per norm | 02:53 | |
| robertj | there is no preferences file | 02:53 |
| wasabi | crimsun, well, kernel-package uses kernel-* naming scheme... so this will do that now? | 02:53 |

| mass | robertj: if you _really_ open that file alot ;-) | 03:14 |
| ajmitch_ | calc: don't you want to harass jdub too? :) | 03:14 |
| jdub | Gmail: again, that is a bug | 03:14 |
| robertj | mass: network resources, anything | 03:14 |
| Gmail | thing like that should NOT be changed | 03:14 |
| stuNNed | SirG3, i checked around, couldn't find anything related to ppc fglrx :( | 03:15 |
| jdub | Gmail: that will be fixed | 03:15 |
| jdub | Gmail: please let it go | 03:15 |
| Gmail | jdub: no it idn't | 03:15 |
| === usual pokes calc | ||
| calc | the only thing i could harass him about he has nothing to do with, getting gnome 2.8 into sid ;) | 03:15 |
| mass | I just like the consolidation of all the icons into the dock - status notifications and all right there. Of course, system tools are slowly leaking upward into the menubar | 03:15 |
| SirG3 | stuNNed: I looked around for 15 minutes on google then I found Bomberclone.... and suddenly the afternoon is gone :-P | 03:15 |
| ajmitch_ | ah | 03:15 |
| ajmitch_ | harass jordi & others then? | 03:15 |
| mass | but apple has promised to break that every major OS release, if you read between the lines | 03:15 |
| === ajmitch_ had better get working before he does the same to me | ||
| mass | 'don't do this with non-system code' | 03:15 |
| usual | calc, you still doing the KDE packages? | 03:16 |
| jdub | Gmail: i'll say it again -> the synaptic menu item moving is a *BUG* it will be fixed. | 03:16 |
| ajmitch_ | when's the hoary upstream version freeze again? | 03:16 |
| jdub | ajmitch_: end of december (but that may change) | 03:16 |
| eruin | Gmail, have a cookie: https://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=3979 | 03:16 |
| usual | hell will freeze before hoary does | 03:16 |
| mass | mmm.. cookies | 03:16 |
| usual | i mean sarge | 03:16 |
| calc | usual: well 3.3.1 is as done as i can make it for sarge (afaik), so just sitting around waiting for it to migrate | 03:17 |
| mass | wrong order | 03:17 |
| mass | hoary, then hell, then sarge ;-) | 03:17 |
| robertj | mass: I really like it because it doesn't prompt at all | 03:17 |
| calc | but after that i am planning to jump into gnome dev if i can :) | 03:17 |
| eruin | wasn't sarge slated for a november release? | 03:17 |
| robertj | mass: it's really a scratch space area | 03:17 |
| ajmitch_ | eruin: sarge was slated for a 2003 release | 03:17 |
| robertj | no "Are you sure you want to create a shortcut" | 03:17 |
| usual | calc, gotcha...havn't seen you in a while...I stopped using kde so I didn't come to #debian-kde anymore | 03:17 |
| eruin | hehe, I remember woody | 03:17 |

| calc | usual: ok | 03:17 |
| Gmail | jdub: its not a bug its a CHANGE and i am saying it not wise to do such changes | 03:17 |
| mass | robertj: prompts are overused. I like the UI design philosophy of 'assume the user isn't a moron, so only prompt them if something they are trying to do is genuinely destructive, like deleting a folder' | 03:17 |
| kensai | eruin, maybe it'll be available for early 2005 | 03:17 |
| eruin | Gmail, stop trolling already | 03:17 |
| jdub | Gmail: dude. listen to me. it is a bug. | 03:18 |
| mass | the anti-clippy school of UI thought :) | 03:18 |
| ajmitch_ | I've got a few packages that are quite outdated in warty | 03:18 |
| jdub | Gmail: the change is a bug. | 03:18 |
| jdub | Gmail: it will be fixed. | 03:18 |
| GotD0t | is there a way i can keep something in the clipboard after the application it was copied from is closed | 03:18 |
| calc | hmm i could just reinstall my desktop with hoary and have gnome 2.8 now :) | 03:18 |
| usual | calc, I enjoy it | 03:18 |

| ajmitch_ | calc: ah, I've got an old prism2 card | 03:20 |
| calc | i may just give up and buy an intel 2200 since those are supposed to work and have wpa support | 03:21 |
| Gmail | btw to get passed such ""BUGS"" is by doing the following command sudo passwd root , and entering the same password as the one you chose for sudo | 03:21 |
| robertj | other thought: does Gnome Keychain Manager load Apple Keychains? | 03:21 |
| kensai | I don't know which is the big deal about the bug on synaptic because it is always under system tools | 03:21 |
| calc | also is minipci so i can just pull the old card out and have it work | 03:21 |
| usual | jdub, I recall you mentioning things like bootsplashes and grub splashes in hoary...are those going to come near release or freeze? or just when they get to it | 03:21 |

| jdub | until you want to get the package | 03:24 |
| ajmitch_ | stuNNed: not sure, it's probably possible :) | 03:24 |
| SirG3 | Hm: as a first time user of Ubuntu some things pop out. I wish there was a way to have a global menu bar like Mac OS *, I wish when installing programs from Synaptic that they became listed in the applications menu. | 03:24 |
| SirG3 | I wish things just worked: like my USB HDD and my firewire burner or my graphics card or mac on linux | 03:25 |
| jdub | SirG3: we won't have a global menu bar; most supported applications will have menu items; *heaps* of hardware 'just works'; MOL isn't supported. | 03:25 |
| SirG3 | jdub: unfort. my hardware doesn't seem to be among the heaps of hardware :-( | 03:26 |
| jdub | SirG3: file bugs, or send install reports to ubuntu-users | 03:26 |
| JStrike | The first : Gnome is not Mac OS : The second should happen : Third is a problem that wont go away any time soon unless linux gets really popular | 03:26 |
| SirG3 | JStrike: I find the one menu bar much more intiutive heh | 03:27 |
| SirG3 | jdub: where would I file bugs? | 03:28 |

| Agrajag | madsen: shoudn't, but it doesn't seem to be working for him without it | 03:44 |

| bigtony | it works fine | 03:45 |
| bigtony | question when i make the dir say /home/bigtony/laptopdrive | 03:46 |
| madsen | bigtony: Do you know what that umask does or did you just stick it in there? | 03:46 |
| bigtony | do i have to chown it? | 03:46 |
| bigtony | i thought it did file access | 03:46 |
| bigtony | but i am still learning | 03:46 |
| madsen | bigtony: You have to have write-perms to it I guess, but I think it changes during mount. | 03:46 |
| bigtony | like 777 | 03:46 |
| pridkett | i'm pretty sure that it's an issue with ubuntu installing the wrong driver to fix that. | 03:46 |

| bigtony | ok umounted | 03:48 |
| mitochondyu | thanks anyways | 03:48 |
| ajmitch_ | superkaramba would work but I guess it'd drag in a few kde dependencies | 03:48 |
| mitochondyu | really? | 03:48 |
| Childe | I need help! | 03:48 |
| bigtony | now do i need to do chmod -R rw on the /home/bigtony/laptopdrive dir i made? | 03:48 |
| Childe | My GDM does not work after I upgraded to Hoary! | 03:48 |
| madsen | mitochondyu: `apt-cache show superkaramba` | 03:48 |

| bigtony | just trying to get total access to that dir is all | 03:49 |
| madsen | just make sure you have full access on the mount point. | 03:49 |
| mitochondyu | thanks | 03:49 |
| bigtony | moint point being the ip/share dir? | 03:49 |
| mitochondyu | i go try now | 03:49 |
| madsen | bigtony: I know, but -R means recursive and there should only be the dir. | 03:49 |
| bigtony | ok | 03:50 |
| madsen | bigtony: No, the mount point in your local dir system. | 03:50 |
| bigtony | thats why i was doing the chmod | 03:50 |
| bigtony | i'm confused | 03:50 |
| madsen | bigtony: Just for getting it straight... Right now: "Mount point" = local dir to mount on; "share" = remote share to mount on "mount point". ;) | 03:50 |
| bigtony | ok fair enough | 03:51 |
| bigtony | mount point is /home/bigtony/laptopdrive | 03:51 |
| madsen | bigtony: Ok, make sure you have rwx on that. | 03:51 |
| bigtony | and i did a mkdir to that dir in normal user mode | 03:51 |
| bigtony | ok let me check | 03:51 |
| madsen | bigtony: Ok, then you have rwx on it. | 03:51 |
| bigtony | yeah | 03:52 |
| madsen | bigtony: now do `smbmount //server/share /home/bigtony/laptopdrive -o rw` No more, no less | 03:52 |

| madsen | bigtony: Hmm, never heard that one before. :/ | 04:03 |
| bigtony | now if i sudo it it gives me no error | 04:03 |
| bigtony | let me see if i have rw on it | 04:03 |
| madsen | bigtony: On my debian install I just mount as myself... | 04:03 |
| madsen | Childe: It doesn't appear so... I know it's frustrating, but perhaps you should try googling for it instead of wasting time asking here... | 04:04 |
| bigtony | with mount -t smbfs //192.168.1.102 username=whatever password=whatever in the fstab? | 04:04 |
| madsen | bigtony: Nope, I mount them when I need them. | 04:04 |
| Childe | madsen: OK. Thank you :-D | 04:04 |
| bigtony | ok | 04:04 |

| madsen | Childe: :) | 04:04 |
| gen | whats the "GDM" bug | 04:05 |
| madsen | bigtony: I created a bash-function in .bashrc that mounts them all... | 04:05 |
| madsen | bigtony: I just do smbmountall and is mounts all my shares from my file-server. | 04:05 |
| Childe | gen: After I upgraded to HoaryGDM can not start. | 04:05 |
| bigtony | sounds like a plan to me | 04:06 |
| madsen | bigtony: Do you have more shares? | 04:06 |
| bigtony | let me try the network mount thing cause this isn't working | 04:06 |
| bigtony | yeah i have 2 | 04:06 |
| Childe | It just tell me that there is already a X server running on this display. But I think this X server is the one launched by GDM itself | 04:06 |
| madsen | bigtony: Well, mine kinda depends on "smbmount //server/share /mount/point" | 04:06 |
| bigtony | the dir still has a lock on it | 04:07 |
| bigtony | even after i created it in normal and it shows rwx on it | 04:07 |
| madsen | Childe: Have you tried "/etc/init.d/gdm stop" and then start it again? | 04:07 |
| bigtony | and it stills ays root is the owner | 04:07 |
| madsen | Childe: I mean, not just using 'restart'. | 04:07 |
| bigtony | :( | 04:07 |
| Childe | madsen: Yes I've tried that. But it still not work | 04:07 |
| madsen | bigtony: That's because root mounted it... | 04:07 |
| bigtony | oh when i did the sudo smbmount gotcha | 04:08 |
| madsen | Childe: does 'ps aux | grep gdm' give you anything when it's stopped? | 04:08 |
| Childe | madsen: No. I killed them all. | 04:08 |
| madsen | Childe: :( | 04:08 |
| alge | hey Childe: how bout ctrl-alt-backspace to kill the X-server | 04:08 |
| madsen | bigtony: Hmm... | 04:08 |
| === natex [~natex@syr-24-58-234-89.twcny.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| Childe | alge: Ctrl+Alt+Backspace can not kill the X-server(strange, right?), I kill it using "kill -9" | 04:09 |
| bigtony | yeah thats what it was when i unmounted the lock went away | 04:09 |
| madsen | bigtony: Yup... | 04:09 |
| bigtony | but i seem to only be able to mount with sudo though | 04:09 |
| === yann__ [~yann@p5480C4C0.dip.t-dialin.net] has left #ubuntu ["Leaving"] | ||
| bigtony | aww i know why | 04:09 |
| madsen | bigtony: ? | 04:09 |
| bigtony | but this is strange | 04:09 |
| bigtony | correct me if i'm wrong | 04:10 |
| bigtony | linux doesn't like ntfs | 04:10 |
| bigtony | it can read it but can't write it | 04:10 |
| madsen | bigtony: Yup! That's it! | 04:10 |
| bigtony | but here is whats messed up | 04:10 |
| bigtony | smb:/192.168.1.102 | 04:10 |
| bigtony | lets me write all day every day | 04:10 |
| Childe | Maybe I should examine GDM's init.d script? | 04:11 |
| madsen | bigtony: That sounds a little suspicious... | 04:11 |
| bigtony | cause i have already transfered tons of date to the laptop using that | 04:11 |
| madsen | bigtony: Hmm | 04:11 |
| Agrajag | bigtony: um | 04:11 |
| bigtony | i was just being lazy | 04:11 |
| madsen | Childe: Can't hurt, but I doubt it'll do any good. | 04:11 |
| bigtony | and got tired of doing smb://whatever | 04:11 |
| Agrajag | you mean an ntfs partition on another machine? | 04:11 |
| bigtony | yeah my laptop is a xp pro machine | 04:11 |
| madsen | bigtony: Still, you should be able to mount it via: Computer -> Networks | 04:11 |
| natex | Childe, if you want to kill X (i.e. drop to runlevel 3) try telinit 3 | 04:12 |
| bigtony | i ahven't tried that method yet | 04:12 |
| Agrajag | bigtony: then it doesn't matter, linux isn't writing to ntfs | 04:12 |
| bigtony | let me try that now | 04:12 |
| bigtony | well something is | 04:12 |
| madsen | bigtony: I don't have a single win-install around to test it... | 04:12 |
| Agrajag | it's writing to smbfs, and the XP machine is writing to ntfs. | 04:12 |
| Childe | natex: Yeah. I'll try that. | 04:12 |
| bigtony | aww ok | 04:12 |
| Agrajag | machines using samba don't have to know the underlying filesystem on the other machine, they just speak SMB at each other | 04:12 |
| natex | ctrl alt back only restarts X on Ubuntu | 04:12 |
| Childe | madsen: I'll also to see if there is already a GDM update in the reposidory | 04:12 |
| bigtony | i see what your saying the smbfs is acting as an pass the buck kinda deal | 04:12 |
| Agrajag | yes | 04:13 |
| bigtony | ok | 04:13 |
| Agrajag | same with nfs | 04:13 |
| bigtony | so thats why smb works | 04:13 |
| (HrdwrBoB/#ubuntu) natex: it doesn't technically restart X | 04:13 | |
| madsen | neat! | 04:13 |
| bigtony | interesting | 04:13 |
| (HrdwrBoB/#ubuntu) natex: it kills X, gdm detects that X has been killed and starts it again | 04:13 | |
| (HrdwrBoB/#ubuntu) the *effect* is that X 'restarts' :) | 04:13 | |
| bigtony | thanks | 04:13 |
| natex | HrdwrBoB: oh? i was under the impression that it was killed then restarts for "security" reasons | 04:13 |
| bratsche | Is anyone else having problems with panel applets like Trash or Mixer not starting correctly when the system restarts? | 04:13 |
| bigtony | so to be clear i can't mount it i must use smb://whatever | 04:14 |
| (HrdwrBoB/#ubuntu) natex: not really | 04:14 | |
| (HrdwrBoB/#ubuntu) natex: ctrl+alt+F1 gets you to a console | 04:14 | |
| Xamusk | can ubuntu live use a home dir in a partition in the HD | 04:14 |
| natex | HrdwrBoB: yes | 04:14 |
| natex | HrdwrBoB: so X isn't touched when ctrl+alt+back? | 04:15 |
| bigtony | madsen: how you get the computer>network thing to work? when i do it all it shows me is network:/// no workgroups or anything | 04:15 |
| === bborkk [~bborkk@SENIOR-FOUR-TEN.MIT.EDU] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| (GammaRay/#ubuntu) bigtony: I can't see why you would not be able to mount it | 04:15 | |
| (HrdwrBoB/#ubuntu) natex: no, X is instantly killed when you run ctrl+alt+backspace | 04:15 | |
| (HrdwrBoB/#ubuntu) including all applications that are currently running within it | 04:16 | |
| bigtony | i do wanna mount it | 04:16 |
| bigtony | but if i can't write to it cause of the nfts restrictions | 04:16 |
| bigtony | i guess i have to mount -t smbfs it? | 04:16 |
| bigtony | i haven't tried that | 04:16 |
| natex | HrdwrBoB: True, I guess I was mentioning the effect then ;) | 04:17 |
| madsen | bigtony: Doesn't it find your network after a little while? | 04:17 |
| bigtony | nope | 04:17 |
| (HrdwrBoB/#ubuntu) natex: yeah | 04:17 | |
| (HrdwrBoB/#ubuntu) natex: it doesn't really matter, it's just nice to know | 04:17 | |
| (GammaRay/#ubuntu) bigtony: think of it like this.. if you run an ftp server on windows, would you be able to write w/ that from a remote client? | 04:17 | |
| bigtony | i see what your saying i'm just noticing its not working how i thought it should | 04:18 |
| natex | HrdwrBoB: of course. | 04:18 |
| bborkk | Seems like my system alarm sound has somehow been remapped to a full-screen flicker. This happened after I installed mplayer. Anyone else have this problem? | 04:18 |

| stuNNed | afaik* | 04:47 |
| ajmitch_ | a C# runtime would have to be part of the main system, ie either mono or dotgnu :) | 04:47 |

| buckminst | so once you've installed something like gtk-engines-industrial, how do you configure it to work? switch doesn't seem to want to do it. | 04:48 |
| JStrike | ajmitch_ : I think that it will happen sooner or later in any case | 04:48 |
| buckminst | and why are the fonts so huge for gtk1? | 04:48 |
| madsen | stuNNed: I know, I know. :) | 04:48 |
| ajmitch_ | perhaps | 04:48 |
| madsen | buckminst: I made gtk-theme-switch do it... | 04:49 |

| madsen | buckminst: It doesn't apply it to the theme-switcher, but it should work in other gtk1.2 apps. | 04:49 |
| carsonc | I had to symlink .gtkrc-1.2-gnome2 to .gtkrc in order to get GTK+ 1.2 themes to work | 04:49 |
| ajmitch_ | JStrike: I'm betting on mono being chosen if it does happen | 04:49 |
| JStrike | ajmitch_ : Of course | 04:50 |
| one_2_one | anyone can helpme ? | 04:50 |
| carsonc | gtk-theme-switch seems only to modify .gtkrc while GNOME2 is looking at .gtkrc-1.2-gnome2 | 04:50 |
| ajmitch_ | JStrike: of course? :) | 04:50 |
| JStrike | ajmitch_ : dotgnu is nowhere close mono | 04:51 |
| buckminst | madsen- it doesn't seem to be working. | 04:52 |
| JStrike | And they are using many of the Mono libraries for their functionality | 04:52 |
| madsen | buckminst: :( | 04:52 |
| ajmitch_ | a number of them | 04:52 |
| JStrike | And all the (.Net) Gnome apps coming out are Mono based | 04:52 |
| buckminst | It's too bad I can't just emerge bluecurve like I could in Gentoo ^_^ | 04:52 |
| buckminst | er... s/emerge/apt-get install/ | 04:52 |
| ajmitch_ | mono-based because they use gtk#/gnome#, which works on both | 04:52 |
| jdub | buckminst: gtk2-engines-wonderland | 04:52 |
| JStrike | ajmitch_ : Of course. That is the point with .Net assemblies. | 04:53 |
| buckminst | jdub- I was more interested in the fact that bluecurve works with both gtk1 and gtk2. | 04:53 |
| ajmitch_ | I've got to get it to a stage where you can choose pnet or mono & the packages work equally | 04:53 |
| JStrike | But my point is that all the development is going into mono, not dotgnu | 04:53 |
| jdub | buckminst: mmm, no gtk1 version of bluecurve in universe, it seems. | 04:54 |
| JStrike | ajmitch_ : They dont even have a decent JIT as far as I know | 04:54 |
| buckminst | There seems to be a rather extensive lack of gtk1 themes i've noticed. *sigh* | 04:55 |
| ajmitch_ | JStrike: work-in-progress, the engine uses a partial JIT for now | 04:55 |

| mass | JStrike: if I could get money for it, I'd have something working tomorrow ;-) | 04:58 |
| madsen | buckminst: I thought there weren't no stable/testing/unstable thingy in Ubuntu. | 04:58 |
| madsen | <- has to do his research better before installing a new distro. | 04:58 |
| JStrike | mass : Bah. It seems all Ubuntu bounties must be done in Python | 04:58 |
| buckminst | If there isn't, I sure wish there was... because I really am put off by the fact that 4.10 doesn't have Firefox 1.0, or XChat 2.4.0... or Gaim 1.0.3... | 04:59 |
| jdub | buckminst: there are releases every six months. | 04:59 |
| ajmitch_ | buckminst: it's hard for distros to keep right up to the very latest :) | 04:59 |
| madsen | buckminst: Well, I miss Firefox 1.0... But it's not in debian unstable yet afaik. | 04:59 |

| ajmitch_ | madsen: is 0.9.3 that bad to use? | 05:03 |
| JStrike | Except that the Ubuntu cycle is very closely linked to the Gnome cycle, so you Gnome goodness first with Ubuntu | 05:03 |
| Agrajag | why wait? go to mozilla.org and download it | 05:03 |
| madsen | buckminst: I was only willing to sacrifice a winxp installation, which I never used anyways. | 05:03 |
| ajmitch_ | or is it the magical 1.0 number? :) | 05:03 |
| madsen | ajmitch_: I miss my Live Bookmarks... | 05:04 |
| ajmitch_ | I admittedly use sid on most of my computers | 05:04 |

| jdub | hoary is currently synced against sid | 05:06 |
| runixd | warty is not stable | 05:06 |
| runixd | hoary is not unstable | 05:06 |
| jdub | warty is released and stable | 05:06 |
| madsen | jdub: So the latest (and greatest?) app-versions is in hoary, or...? | 05:06 |
| runixd | yeah stable | 05:06 |
| s0cks | hoary is buggier than warty | 05:06 |
| jdub | hoary is a development branch, and therefore unstable | 05:06 |
| jdub | s0cks: it's a *development branch* | 05:07 |

| s0cks | jdub : How much beta testing will go into it once the finished product is settled up, before release | 05:10 |
| jdub | s0cks: the preview release is in march, and final in april. | 05:10 |
| jdub | s0cks: six months. | 05:10 |
| jdz_ | s0cks: If you want something Stable, use Warty, until Hoary is released. | 05:10 |
| jdub | s0cks: stable means unchanging, not robust. | 05:10 |
| YokoZar | Ok, I've got a completely hosed ubuntu system right now. The login screen goes black and the keyboard freezes after the NVIDIA logo and the login sound. It happened after latest dist-upgrade, where the xorg packages were installed. | 05:10 |
| jdub | s0cks: it will be stable in april. | 05:10 |
| jdz_ | s0cks: Hoary is in development, it shouldn't be expected to be stable *until* it's released | 05:10 |
| s0cks | jdub : Yes, but a large portion of that goes to coding? | 05:10 |
| madsen | jdub: I've been running sid for a couple of years now with ~0 problems. | 05:10 |
| buckminst | So will Hoary be using XOrg 6.8? | 05:11 |
| jdub | buckminst: it does already. | 05:11 |
| s0cks | jdz_ : Point taken. | 05:11 |
| buckminst | Whee! | 05:11 |
| ajmitch_ | madsen: there are always a few sid issues that come up :) | 05:11 |
| s0cks | jdz_: Is it to much to ask for it to be 95 percent reliable at the preview? | 05:11 |
| buckminst | Now, I'd thought that Warty was using XFree 4.3.99, but why do the package versions say 4.3.0? | 05:11 |
| madsen | jdub: With alpha-blending and drop-shadows and all? | 05:11 |
| jdz_ | madsen: I find Hoary is very similar to Debian-Sid, but with all the Ubuntu-Goodness thrown in *grins* | 05:11 |

| jdz_ | s0cks: Sure, but it shouldn't be used on production servers until it's released :P | 05:12 |

| YokoZar | jdz_: ok fixed that, but will that - what exactly will that do? | 05:18 |
| buckminst | I despise the fact that FC removed the commandline fdisk option. fdisk and cfdisk are _the_ fastest ways to partition =) | 05:18 |

| JStrike | Yes you can | 06:20 |
| farruinn | why not just use gzip? | 06:20 |

| PorscheBoy | i need one with gui not text-based | 06:21 |
| Rene_S | I just use the one in KDE so I dunno what would be good in Gnome, the Fileroller one has always worked for me in the past | 06:21 |
| PorscheBoy | fileroller is fine but it has some bugs | 06:22 |
| gen | such as | 06:23 |
| PorscheBoy | for example, i can't drag the files out of fileroller window | 06:23 |
| gen | who says thats a bug? | 06:23 |
| JStrike | And uncompress them? | 06:23 |
| JStrike | Or to remove them? | 06:23 |
| PorscheBoy | gen, just drag a file out of fileroller window and see if it works...i know of course it works if u click on extract button | 06:24 |

| (HrdwrBoB/#ubuntu) Rene_S: http://www.widearea.co.uk/designer/anti.html | 06:26 | |
| farruinn | PorscheBoy, well, since winRAR cannot be used with Ubuntu I think that's irrelevant to this channel's discussion | 06:26 |
| Rene_S | HrdwrBoB: oh cool pictures, that helps thanks | 06:26 |
| gen | rese_s: A technique that smooths the roughness in images or sound caused by aliasing. During frequency sampling, aliasing generates a false (alias) frequency along with the correct one. With images this produces a stair-step effect. Anti-aliasing corrects this by adjusting pixel positions or setting pixel intensities so that there is a more gradual transition between pixels. | 06:26 |
| gen | rene* | 06:26 |
| PorscheBoy | JStrike i know exactly what i'm talking about | 06:26 |
| pixelmonkey | Rene_S: when fonts have "jaggies", they are not anti-aliased. When fonts look "smooth" they are. To discover what makes a font have "jaggies" or be smooth, simply take a screenshot of your desktop and zoom in with the gimp. | 06:26 |
| PorscheBoy | i know that most of u guys r using firefox, right? | 06:27 |
| gen | correct | 06:27 |
| gen | can you stop with the "u" and "r" please, it makes baby jesus cry | 06:27 |
| PorscheBoy | ok...go to www.yahoo.com and see if it displays the page correctly | 06:27 |
| pixelmonkey | Speaking of, why in God's name doesn't Ubuntu have Galeon in Universe? | 06:27 |
| (HrdwrBoB/#ubuntu) PorscheBoy: I don't understand why there are single letters in your incomplete sentence | 06:27 | |
| eruin | PorscheBoy, yeah | 06:28 |
| gen | porscheboy: works fine | 06:28 |
| pixelmonkey | I don't mind compiling from CVS, but this little pixelmonkey thinks Galeon is the best browser on earth. | 06:28 |
| PorscheBoy | man...they page is messed up when i go to yahoo | 06:28 |
| eruin | pixelmonkey, it was until firefox matured | 06:28 |
| pixelmonkey | eruin, I still like it over Firefox. | 06:28 |
| (HrdwrBoB/#ubuntu) pixelmonkey: I agree, however if you fiddle with it a bit, firefox works the same as galeon | 06:29 | |
| pixelmonkey | eruin, I use Firefox on Windows, but Firefox still doesn't have some basic things Galeon does. | 06:29 |
| JStrike | Nah. FF is nice, but even Ephy kill galeon | 06:29 |
| (HrdwrBoB/#ubuntu) er | 06:29 | |
| (HrdwrBoB/#ubuntu) epiphany is a giant bundle of crap | 06:29 | |
| farruinn | eruin, did you download a tar.gz or something for the galeon source? | 06:29 |
| (HrdwrBoB/#ubuntu) it had no features | 06:29 | |
| pixelmonkey | HrdwrBoB, I have to agree | 06:29 |
| farruinn | try sudo apt-get source -b galeon | 06:29 |
| PorscheBoy | firefox on linux is a little bit different the windows | 06:29 |
| carsonc | Well, it displayed web pages. I'd say that's pretty much THE feature in a web browser | 06:30 |
| pixelmonkey | HrdwrBoB, epiphany = gnome philosophy taken to an extreme level | 06:30 |
| (HrdwrBoB/#ubuntu) pixelmonkey: yeah | 06:30 | |
| JStrike | Ephy is very HIG complient and Gnome integrated | 06:30 |
| pixelmonkey | HrdwrBoB, as Miguel De Icaza once put it, "Gnome once suffered from featuritis, but the answer isn't what some developers do now: no features. We need a balance." | 06:30 |
| (HrdwrBoB/#ubuntu) JStrike: yeah and it had 0 of the hundred of features that made galeon good | 06:30 | |
| farruinn | eruin, sorry, disregard that, I wasn't following the conversation correctly | 06:30 |
| JStrike | That is what made the lead developer of galeon leave. It was getting to be a fsking KDE app | 06:31 |
| (HrdwrBoB/#ubuntu) yes, but epiphany goes WAY too far in the other direction | 06:31 | |
| pixelmonkey | JStrike, I think Galeon 1.x was becoming a KDE app | 06:31 |
| (HrdwrBoB/#ubuntu) it's offers no flexibility | 06:31 | |
| (HrdwrBoB/#ubuntu) *it | 06:31 | |
| pixelmonkey | but Galeon 2.x has struck a nice balance, and since 1.3.17 when Crispin did performance improvements, it's fast. | 06:31 |
| hcker2000 | GammaRay, from what i can find the modem dosnt work in ubuntu | 06:31 |
| (crimsun/#ubuntu) that's funny, because I far prefer Galeon 1.2.x to 1.3.x or Epiphany | 06:32 | |
| carsonc | Out of curiosity, what features did Galeon have that Epiphany didn't? Not a troll, I've just never really used either to any extent aside from just displaying normal webpages | 06:32 |
| carsonc | s/did/does | 06:32 |
| (HrdwrBoB/#ubuntu) the main thing is open new windows in a tab | 06:32 | |
| (HrdwrBoB/#ubuntu) everything should open in a tab | 06:33 | |
| (HrdwrBoB/#ubuntu) .. ok | 06:33 | |
| JStrike | Ephy can do that | 06:33 |
| JStrike | In exactly the same way as FireFox | 06:33 |
| (HrdwrBoB/#ubuntu) middle click should open the current past buffer in a new tab | 06:33 | |
| JStrike | What?? | 06:34 |
| pixelmonkey | carsonc: let's see... save tabs as bookmark folder, session management/recovery, bookmark toolbar, smart bookmarks (bookmarks with searchable fields) | 06:34 |
| (HrdwrBoB/#ubuntu) also one thing that galeon did right that NO other browser I have seen has done | 06:34 | |
| (HrdwrBoB/#ubuntu) if I right click on the home button | 06:34 | |
| (HrdwrBoB/#ubuntu) it should have an option to set the home pahge | 06:34 | |

| JStrike | HrdwrBoB : That is a nice feature | 06:34 |
| pixelmonkey | HrdwrBoB, ok I'm wrong, I'm running epiphany now | 06:35 |
| (HrdwrBoB/#ubuntu) pixelmonkey: yeah but t right click on home is intuitive as well | 06:35 | |
| pixelmonkey | HrdwrBoB, gotta go to preferences to set homepage :) | 06:35 |
| (HrdwrBoB/#ubuntu) yeah | 06:36 | |
| JStrike | I must admit. I really like the look of FF's download manager. Very nice | 06:36 |
| pixelmonkey | also, Epiphany gutted the "personal info" dialog | 06:36 |
| pixelmonkey | which I love in Galeon, especially when I do web development | 06:36 |
| pixelmonkey | and I can quickly clear out specific cookies and such | 06:36 |
| JStrike | Isn't that in Gnome? | 06:36 |
| JStrike | Oh. I see | 06:37 |
| pixelmonkey | JStrike, not sure, in epiphany the dialog has two tabs, in Galeon it has 6 or so and is searchable :) | 06:37 |
| PorscheBoy | how do you convert ReiserFS to XFS? | 06:37 |
| pixelmonkey | in any event | 06:37 |
| pixelmonkey | they are both solid browsers, but Galeon is way better. Epiphany is "radicalized Gnome" | 06:38 |
| pixelmonkey | Firefox and Galeon are same footing I think, and will only get better as Firefox integrated with Gnome more | 06:38 |
| JStrike | Yep | 06:38 |
| JStrike | But there are limits | 06:39 |
| pixelmonkey | also, I like FIrefox's plugin/extension architecture | 06:39 |

| Tomcat_ | Firefox is an open-source program by a bunch of OS freaks, and it rocks. :) | 06:43 |
| JStrike | IE was a shitload better than Netscape after a point | 06:43 |
| Tomcat_ | I agree with pixelmonkey... MS did a good job on many programs, but definitely not IE. :) | 06:43 |
| JStrike | pixelmonkey : IE's problem was that development was abandoned years ago | 06:43 |
| Tomcat_ | JStrike: Yes, but only because Netscape was worse. :) | 06:43 |
| calc | JStrike: that was mostly caused by the browser arms race | 06:43 |
| pixelmonkey | JStrike, only because Netscape was amateurish in how they approached the original open-source like dev model | 06:43 |
| Tomcat_ | Anyway, gotta go. | 06:43 |
| pixelmonkey | JStrike, they released buggy code early and often which led many users to think Netscape was buggy in general | 06:44 |
| JStrike | Tomcat_ : And FireFox has taken *way* too long to come out | 06:44 |
| pixelmonkey | even though there WERE stable versions floating around | 06:44 |
| calc | ms had many more people/resources to throw at it, and they still managed to bungle it badly | 06:44 |
| JStrike | It is almost an embarrassment to oss | 06:44 |
| pixelmonkey | trust me, it also didn;t help netscape that Microsoft bundled IE with their OS | 06:44 |
| pixelmonkey | prior to MS doing that, Netscape "was" the Internet to a lot of people | 06:44 |

| (Lathiat/#ubuntu) When makign packages of gnome apps, gconf schemas have to handled specially right? [im not just going insane?] | 06:48 | |
| (HrdwrBoB/#ubuntu) PorscheBoy: I don't know if you got an answer but the how you do it is this 'cp' | 06:49 | |
| (HrdwrBoB/#ubuntu) you cannot 'convert' | 06:49 | |
| (HrdwrBoB/#ubuntu) from reiser to XFS | 06:49 | |
| calc | http://www.telecommander.com/pics/links/application%20software/microsoft/Microsoft_Bob_1_0/Microsoft_Bob_1_0.htm | 06:49 |
| (HrdwrBoB/#ubuntu) oh, and XFS isn't all it's cracked up to be, if the SCSI cable to the external storage unit gets removed, it can still break | 06:50 | |
| pixelmonkey | speaking of HIG compliance, is there any effort to replace XChat, which is not HIG/Gnome compliant at all? | 06:50 |
| calc | jdub: hopefully #ubuntu won't become as bad as #debian ;) | 06:50 |
| JStrike | There are efforts. But nothing really great | 06:50 |
| jdub | xfs 'breaks' a lot. if you need a seriously robust file system, use ext3 with data journalling (not the default). | 06:51 |
| jdub | pixelmonkey: see gnomechat | 06:51 |
| PorscheBoy | HrdwrBoB, so is there a way i can do it without losing my data? | 06:51 |
| JStrike | gaim has quite a nice irc interface that I use | 06:51 |
| pixelmonkey | jdub, gracias | 06:51 |
| (HrdwrBoB/#ubuntu) PorscheBoy: you cannot convert | 06:51 | |
| (HrdwrBoB/#ubuntu) PorscheBoy: you need to copy | 06:51 | |
| jdub | PorscheBoy: back up, reformat, replace. | 06:51 |
| PorscheBoy | copy? | 06:51 |
| (HrdwrBoB/#ubuntu) yes, copy it from a resier volume to an XFS volume | 06:51 | |
| PorscheBoy | then i need another HD, right? | 06:52 |
| pixelmonkey | JStrike, wow, I actually never knew Gaim had IRC support too | 06:53 |

| pixelmonkey | JStrike, oh wow it isn't bad | 06:54 |
| JStrike | If only gaim didn't have such a crap "account" interface | 06:54 |
| pixelmonkey | it's funny you mentioned gaim, I was just reading mailing list archives about gaim possibly being included in Gnome | 06:56 |
| pixelmonkey | and all these HIG experts saying "Gaim is a disaster UI-wise!" | 06:56 |
| (Lathiat/#ubuntu) it isnt the best UI | 06:56 | |
| (Lathiat/#ubuntu) its by no means terrible | 06:56 | |
| ajmitch_ | is there a decent nx client that might get into hoary? | 06:57 |
| pixelmonkey | yea, I think for users of windows/mac AIM it's familiar yet better | 06:57 |
| pixelmonkey | familiar UI with added benefits like tabbed conversations, spell checking, plugins, etc. | 06:57 |
| mass | ok, don't justify any UI comparing it to windows AIM | 06:57 |
| mass | :P | 06:57 |
| pixelmonkey | mass: I'm just saying it's familiar. | 06:58 |
| mass | someone could throw up on a page and it would look better than AIM | 06:58 |
| mass | :) | 06:58 |

| calc | do you have the proper libXrender? | 09:17 |

| calc | eg the same as the bitness of your app | 09:17 |
| (bigbrother0074/#ubuntu) i don't know | 09:17 | |
| (bigbrother0074/#ubuntu) how would i find out | 09:17 | |
| calc | it would probably be under /usr/libX/libXrender.so.X | 09:18 |
| calc | like /usr/lib /usr/lib32 or /usr/lib64 | 09:18 |
| calc | afaik ubuntu doesn't use lib64 | 09:18 |
| calc | i haven't booted my ubuntu system in a while | 09:19 |
| calc | it sounds like you don't have a version of libXrender that is for the same arch as the app though | 09:19 |
| calc | likely the app is 32bit | 09:19 |
| (bigbrother0074/#ubuntu) i don't have libXrender.so.X | 09:20 | |

| calc | bigbrother0074: ok then that seems to be your problem | 09:25 |
| (bigbrother0074/#ubuntu) ahh...ok | 09:25 | |
| calc | there is a 64bit version of libXrender but no 32bit one on your system, and the app is 32bit | 09:25 |
| (bigbrother0074/#ubuntu) makes sense | 09:25 | |
| calc | bigbrother0074: btw ldd skype would show you which libraries are missing | 09:26 |
| (bigbrother0074/#ubuntu) Ohmer, ok | 09:26 | |
| (bigbrother0074/#ubuntu) crap....oh..ok | 09:26 | |
| calc | you might be able to copy the libXrender file out of a deb for i386 version and make it work | 09:26 |
| (bigbrother0074/#ubuntu) calc, ldd skype produces quite a list | 09:27 | |
| calc | if you do that though make sure to copy it into the lib32 dir not your lib dir | 09:27 |
| (bigbrother0074/#ubuntu) oh wait...it says which ones aren't found | 09:27 | |
| (bigbrother0074/#ubuntu) ok | 09:27 | |
| (bigbrother0074/#ubuntu) calc, would you mind walking me through that? i'm not good w/ this stuff yet | 09:30 | |

| (GammaRay/#ubuntu) you just have to figure out how to get it to listen to your network | 10:32 | |
| (Treenaks/#ubuntu) |QuaD|: no, the mail server doesn't listen on an external port by default | 10:33 | |
| (Treenaks/#ubuntu) |QuaD|: check /etc/postfix/master.cf and /etc/postfix/main.cf | 10:33 | |

| (GammaRay/#ubuntu) |QuaD|: also see lsof -i:650 | 10:35 | |
| (Treenaks/#ubuntu) |QuaD|: best way to check which program opened it, use 'netstat -np' | 10:35 | |

| (|QuaD|/#ubuntu) right | 10:37 | |
| (|QuaD|/#ubuntu) i realize that | 10:37 | |
| (|QuaD|/#ubuntu) does this mean i am fine without a firewall, cuz only those 2 ports are open? | 10:37 | |

| (GammaRay/#ubuntu) not ipp and not famd | 10:38 | |
| (|QuaD|/#ubuntu) you think i should put one up? | 10:38 | |
| (bob2/#ubuntu) no | 10:38 | |
| (|QuaD|/#ubuntu) ok :) | 10:38 | |
| (bob2/#ubuntu) presumably you want people to be able to access your ssh and http servers | 10:38 | |
| (bob2/#ubuntu) right? | 10:38 | |

| (bob2/#ubuntu) DROP means you just ignore packets coming in to that port | 10:47 | |

| deFrysk | id does | 06:21 |
| deFrysk | it | 06:21 |
| (bob2/#ubuntu) Grogoreo: it does indeed | 06:21 | |
| TravisBarker | my glade UI doesnt list python as a build option | 06:21 |
| Grogoreo | thanks bob2 | 06:21 |
| TravisBarker | it has C C++ and ada95 | 06:21 |
| (bob2/#ubuntu) TravisBarker: just load the xml file from pyglade | 06:21 | |
| madsen | TravisBarker: That's because Glade doesn't support Python, but Python supports glade. | 06:22 |
| deFrysk | gui for yum ? like yumi ? | 06:22 |
| TravisBarker | like yumi, yes | 06:22 |
| TravisBarker | but yumi is broken for the new yum so... | 06:22 |
| madsen | TravisBarker: Just select 'C' and then remove all build-options and files. You only need <project>.glade | 06:22 |
| (bob2/#ubuntu) what does a yum gui have to do with #ubuntu? | 06:22 | |
| TravisBarker | bob2: i was told to bring it up here because you guys are some kind of python gurus :) | 06:23 |
| TravisBarker | bob2: sorry if im off topic for you | 06:23 |
| (bob2/#ubuntu) TravisBarker: try #python | 06:23 | |
| madsen | TravisBarker: I don't know python, but I've done Ruby and C# with glade... Also a bit of PHP. | 06:23 |
| (bob2/#ubuntu) TravisBarker: you want to be loading the .glade file at runtime, tho | 06:23 | |
| TravisBarker | bob2: i tried #python, and after explaining the situation, they told me that I know more about glade already than any of them | 06:24 |
| madsen | TravisBarker: But I think you should start with a HelloWorld in python/glade before jumping into the whole yum gui thingy... | 06:24 |
| deFrysk | yum sucks anyway | 06:24 |
| TravisBarker | in other words most of #python is sleeping :) | 06:24 |

| (Treenaks/#ubuntu) don't forget to edit /etc/environment after setting up your locale -- it might be trying the wrong one | 06:45 | |
| (bob2/#ubuntu) the locale system might be perl | 06:45 | |
| (bob2/#ubuntu) debconf certainly is | 06:45 | |
| (Treenaks/#ubuntu) also, log out and in, so /etc/environment is parsed | 06:45 | |

| hitchhiker | Cheers guys, hdparm sorted it | 06:49 |
| rapha | Yo! | 06:49 |
| rapha | Is there any way to have sounds in GNOME working when using ALSA instead of OSS? | 06:49 |
| (Treenaks/#ubuntu) rapha: uh.. it's using esd | 06:49 | |
| (Treenaks/#ubuntu) which, afaik, uses alsa by default | 06:50 | |
| madsen | Treenaks: Woohoo! You're my new favourite person! It worked! :) | 06:50 |
| madsen | rapha: oss-emulation on alsa... (?) | 06:50 |
| rapha | madsen: Okay. | 06:50 |
| rapha | And why can't I do two sound-things at the same time using ALSA? | 06:50 |
| madsen | rapha: you want alsa-oss | 06:51 |
| rapha | Okay | 06:51 |
| ironwolf | how did ubuntu install change my hardware clock, and how without going into the bios, do I change it back? | 06:51 |
| madsen | rapha: To make more apps output through alsa you probably want the jackd | 06:51 |
| rapha | madsen: What does jackd do? | 06:51 |
| rapha | I am also using linphone now over ALSA, but mplayer won't even start with -ao alsa. | 06:52 |
| (Treenaks/#ubuntu) madsen: no, jackd is not compatible with oss | 06:52 | |
| rapha | Isn't alsa supposed to allow an unlimited number of sounds to be played at the same time? | 06:52 |
| (Treenaks/#ubuntu) you probably want to use DMIX | 06:52 | |
| rapha | Oh, what is DMIX? | 06:52 |
| madsen | Treenaks: No, but it is with alsa and kernel 2.6 uses alsa as the default. | 06:52 |
| (Treenaks/#ubuntu) http://opensrc.org/alsa/index.php?page=DmixPlugin | 06:52 | |
| (Treenaks/#ubuntu) madsen: uh.. with esd I ment | 06:53 | |
| (Treenaks/#ubuntu) +a | 06:53 | |
| madsen | Treenaks: You can emulate oss with alsa. | 06:53 |
| madsen | Treenaks: Oh. :) | 06:53 |
| === rapha just wants to do VoIP and hear his GNOME sounds or watch a movie clip at the same time | ||
| will | does anyone here use ephiphany? | 06:54 |
| madsen | rapha: http://jackit.sourceforge.net | 06:54 |
| (Treenaks/#ubuntu) rapha: use gnomemeeting and totem | 06:54 | |
| (Treenaks/#ubuntu) rapha: they output through ESD by default | 06:54 | |
| rapha | madsen: apt-get install jackd | 06:54 |
| rapha | :-) | 06:54 |
| rapha | Treenaks: gnomemeeting doesn't work through my partners' firewall | 06:55 |
| (alexis|dodo/#ubuntu) coucou | 06:56 | |
| madsen | rapha: But then you need your apps to have jack-output support. | 06:56 |
| rapha | I see | 06:56 |
| rapha | Hmm | 06:56 |
| rapha | Okay, so I could as well hack ESD output support into Linphone. | 06:56 |
| === Amaranth [~travis@63-229-188-179.sxcy.qwest.net] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| madsen | rapha: mplayer does have it, if it's compiled with it, but I'm not sure if gnome supports it (or if it ever will). | 06:56 |
| rapha | madsen: mplayer also has esd output support. Problem is that there seems to be no SIP application that has it. | 06:57 |
| madsen | rapha: Might be... Or try asking on a more sound-focused channel perhaps. (I just don't know any off the top of my head.) | 06:57 |
| rapha | So what will Ubuntu do in the future? Focus on moving all its apps to ESD or moving them to ALSA? | 06:57 |
| madsen | alsa I hope | 06:57 |
| rapha | Any official position on that? | 06:58 |
| (bob2/#ubuntu) alsa and esd are sorta orthogonal | 06:58 | |
| (bob2/#ubuntu) gnome is apparently moving to polypaudio | 06:58 | |
| === mir [~mir@h123n9c1o1003.bredband.skanova.com] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| === rapha looks up "orthogonal" | ||
| madsen | rapha: Well, the kernel (2.6) runs alsa as default, so it would seem kinda logical to move towards that. | 06:58 |
| (bob2/#ubuntu) ubuntu currently uses esd on top of alsa, by default | 06:58 | |
| rapha | Okay | 06:59 |
| rapha | bob2: So applications which natively use ALSA should be able to parallel output sound to ESD-using apps, right? | 06:59 |
| (bob2/#ubuntu) no | 06:59 | |
| rapha | Hmm | 06:59 |
| rapha | Too bad | 07:00 |
| (bob2/#ubuntu) not unless a) you have a good sound card (=emu10k1) or b) sewtup dmix | 07:00 | |
| rapha | a isn't given, so I'll try b. | 07:00 |
| (bob2/#ubuntu) dmix is pretty easy to do | 07:00 | |
| rapha | Cool | 07:00 |
| rapha | So will Ubuntu do it by default with Hoary? | 07:00 |
| (bob2/#ubuntu) dmix? everything should be using polyp by then | 07:01 | |
| rapha | Oh | 07:01 |

| === krischan [~krischan@p5090ADCD.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| adnans | actually, audio apps should be rewritten for jack | 07:06 |
| adnans | which runs on top of alsa | 07:06 |
| mirak | pan sucks | 07:07 |
| adnans | unfortunately most linux/unix audio apps are written with the oss/esd style api in mind (read/write/block) | 07:07 |
| mirak | it crashes when posting | 07:07 |
| (Treenaks/#ubuntu) adnans: does jack run on top of, say, the freebsd apis as well? | 07:08 | |
| adnans | Treenaks: if someone ports it, sure.. | 07:08 |
| adnans | Treeknaks, there is an oss driver, so it should run (assuming freebsd emulates oss) | 07:09 |

| madsen | unikum: Sure, the one you made before changing the file... ;) | 08:17 |
| madsen | malte`: It's not entirely "open", so Debian might hesitate to put it in the repo. Or they'll stick it in the non-free repo... | 08:18 |
| skeff | malte`, well.. principally, Ubuntu is all about open source software, which to some is concidered a good thing. To me, that just throws out good software from a linux distribution. | 08:18 |

| madsen | skeff: I don't know... I said "I think". | 08:24 |

| Rod | lsmod shows that forcedeth is loaded, which is the network module | 08:54 |

| RuffianSoldier | That is a pic of a field next to my house | 09:03 |
| RuffianSoldier | and I added the Ubuntu logo | 09:03 |
| skeff | oh that reminds me, the Take Screenshot functionality in Gnome disappeared, I think at the time I upgraded from warty to hoary.. how do I get it back? | 09:03 |
| Rod | is there a iso available of hoary? maybe that will get the network running | 09:04 |
| RuffianSoldier | skeff, try apt-cache searching for it | 09:04 |
| madsen | skeff: You can load a "take screenshot" applet. | 09:04 |
| skeff | madsen, no it doesn't work, it can't find gnome-screenshot or something | 09:04 |
| sulkd | skeff, you can just hit the "print screen" key on your keyboard | 09:05 |
| madsen | sulkd: _that_ doesn't work for me, even though I've reconfigured the shortcut. | 09:05 |
| skeff | hehe you guys..you crack me: result of pressing Print Screen: "Failed to execute child process "gnome-panel-screenshot" (No such file or directory)." | 09:05 |
| Rod | if i take the amd64 ISO instead, will the network work? | 09:06 |
| Rod | i now used the i386 for my amd64 | 09:06 |

| IRCMonkey | Alright, I'm booting into Ubuntu | 09:08 |
| IRCMonkey | Thanks | 09:08 |
| skeff | madsen, what? EITHER!? | 09:08 |
| RuffianSoldier | topyli, thats a popdown menu, and I just changed the Icon' | 09:09 |
| RuffianSoldier | it has Firefox, XChat, and Gaim | 09:09 |
| topyli | ok, i was hoping someone knows how to enable debian menus :9 | 09:09 |
| madsen | skeff: You could install imagemagick and then make a launcher that launches `import -window root ~/screenshot.jpg`. | 09:09 |

| RubenV | btw | 09:10 |
| RubenV | there are voices raised about removing the debian menu alltogether | 09:10 |
| skeff | madsen, I would rather bitch about package inconsistency until that gets fixed.. I should file a bug I think..where? | 09:10 |
| madsen | skeff: You can try `ifup eth1; ifdown eth1` and then `iwlist eth1 scanning`. Or take a look at `iwconfig` | 09:10 |
| topyli | RubenV: i know. i don't think it will pass easily | 09:11 |
| madsen | skeff: Well, then bitch as you like, but the imagemagick thing is actually smarter, 'cause it won't give you that annoying popup asking if you want to save the shot. | 09:11 |

| usual | jdz_, it's sad I didn't vote at all this time | 11:57 |
| kensai | vah Why vote if democracy is a fantasy? | 11:57 |
| (HrdwrBoB/#ubuntu) why not vote and then whinge about the result | 11:57 | |
| asdfv | hi | 11:58 |
| Cuga_ | daveon, Universe apt source is basically the rest of the debian unstable branch, gives you few thousand more packages to be installed via apt | 11:58 |
| asdfv | i need help | 11:58 |
| kensai | HrdwrBoB, Thats why I don't vote and don't whine neither ;) | 11:58 |
| daveon | I've got the getsweaa sources but I still cannot install monodevelop | 11:58 |
| Cuga_ | daveon, edit the /etc/apt/sources.list and uncomment the lines for universe | 11:58 |
| daveon | thanks | 11:58 |
| asdfv | i've just installed ubuntu (before i had mandrake) and somethings don't work | 11:59 |
| Cuga_ | asdfv, like? | 11:59 |
| asdfv | i can't login as root | 11:59 |
| daveon | Cuga_ could it break any packages? | 11:59 |
| Cuga_ | asdfv, if you would have read the notes during the installer, you would know why | 11:59 |
| jdz_ | kensai: Heh, well, as they say -- the USA is only one party away from facisism ;) | 11:59 |
