| melazyboy | Daniels are you there i have a quick question for you about the way xorg does 3d/2d | 12:13 |
| daniels | melazyboy: sup | 12:13 |
| melazyboy | ever since i upgraded to hoary and lost fglrx, i noticed that when i highlight the background on gnome and move the cursor from one side of the screen to the other the update is about 100times slower | 12:14 |
| melazyboy | the shaded box, if i make it big on the verticle, and drag it to the oppisite side on the horizontal, it takes like a second to update | 12:14 |
| melazyboy | isn't that also 2d though? | 12:14 |

| anders_ | hi everyone. im new to linux so I guess this is a stupid question but anyway... Is there any list with hardware supported by Ubuntu? | 12:14 |
| JStrike | jdub : I see gnome-user-share appeared in the repo the other day. Is it the same as GPWS or something else entirely? | 12:14 |
| melazyboy | or am i just imagining things | 12:14 |
| daniels | yah, that is a 2D operation | 12:14 |
| daniels | however, you could use the 3D engine to accelerate that if you wanted to, which fglrx may actually do | 12:15 |
| melazyboy | daniels: Is it that much slower without fglrx | 12:15 |

| JStrike | anders_ : There is. Google for it | 12:15 |
| daniels | i've not owned a card that hasn't had full 3d acceleration with the standard drivfers | 12:15 |
| melazyboy | It just seems like the whole gnome experience is a little inept without fglrx when i booted it i was aucutally able to see the gdm login screen being drawn from top to bottom, i don't ever remember seeing that done before | 12:15 |

| TheCan | Evaso, but i "flashed" the card dead..doesnt work even under windows | 12:16 |
| melazyboy | i just thought all fglrx added was 3d -- thanks for clearing up the confusion anyway | 12:16 |

| bob2 | cd /etc/rc2.d | 01:01 |
| bob2 | rm *postfix *cupsys | 01:01 |
| Matt| | paper, you rename the links in /etc/rc2.d | 01:01 |
| Matt| | paper, just uninstall postfix if you don't want it | 01:01 |
| Matt| | bob2, surely better to rename em? | 01:01 |

| Matt| | bob2, *grins* you're getting around | 01:10 |
| XhyldazhK | how do I get the gdm login screen that appears in the ubuntu homepage? | 01:11 |
| kent | mjr, and the order of which linux loads the modules, is that constant between boots? My brother has two ethernet-cards. One to the adsl and one to his xbox. I think i have to know which gets which eth* so that i can configure them in the interfaces file :( The cards differ in brand (and chip). | 01:11 |
| bob2 | Matt|: heh, yeah, this side of it's fun :) | 01:11 |
| Matt| | bob2, hectic but fun i guess.. | 01:12 |
| bob2 | yeah, 'xactly | 01:12 |
| Matt| | better than studying law | 01:12 |
| mjr | kent, well, it's pretty much stable, but theoretically if hotplug (the component that's in charge of loading the drivers) is upgraded, the order might change - I suppose they'll be trying to keep it so that it won't, though | 01:12 |
| egon_spengler | kent: The cards are read in PCI slot order, slot one gets eth0 slot 2 gets eth1 and so on | 01:13 |
| Matt| | bob2, i've often wondered how you squash bugs... is bug fixing a group activity, or do developers just work on them individually until they resolve it | 01:13 |
| XhyldazhK | anyone knows how to get the gdm login screen that appears in the Ubuntu home page? | 01:14 |
| Matt| | XhyldazhK, i'm not sure which one you mean | 01:14 |
| Matt| | XhyldazhK, have you got ubuntu-artwork installed? | 01:14 |

| ChibiFS | Thin? It's 8 pounds, from 1996. I got it for 28 bucks, and use it to NX to home. :P | 02:10 |
| djtansey | another, unrelated, question -- can you change how many boots are between mandatory fsck checks? | 02:10 |
| MobyTurbo | djtansey, go to www.google.com/linux and plug in that error message there. That tends to be a great debugging tool. :-) | 02:10 |
| djtansey | Moby: I guessed that. saw some mention online but no answers. don't know what else to try. i'll try the google site | 02:11 |

| MobyTurbo | djtansey, you can change how many boots between fscks, I think with e2fsck tho I might be mistaken. | 02:11 |

| jono | LinuxJones, well cloning a machine so you can take a single cloned image and install it across lots of machines | 02:19 |
| MobyTurbo | sertmann, the non-free version of open-office, star office, includes a database. Other than that I don't know. | 02:19 |

| happyhobo | it appears that a straight gnome/debian linux distro won't work on this laptop | 02:25 |

| GoneBoB | XhyldazhK: not exactly | 03:03 |
| kent | zerox, are you sure you have the libgtk2.0-dev package? having the library is not the same thing as having the -devel package installed. | 03:03 |
| GoneBoB | however 'universe' packaes are debian | 03:04 |
| kent | zerox, install libgtk2.0-dev using synaptic. | 03:05 |

| SCOUnix | linuxjones: Im pro sco in the lawsuit but im not anti linux | 03:08 |
| kent | zerox, most errors you get from running the configure script is about lack of devel packages. Like, to compile a package that uses gtk/gnome or something, you need both the library and the development package for that library. Thats the first thing to check when you get errors. Use synaptic to check if you got packages like that installed. If it still complains, ask here :) | 03:08 |
| LinuxJones | SCOUnix, how can you possibly be pro-SCO, they have nothing ? | 03:08 |

| linux_galore | Net well ok for starters 3 x 1.5 is 4.5 ok now thats un-regulated so its fed straight onto the power rail in the radio with a power pack you usually regulate it because power packs are crap in general and with that comes some loss because your using an el-cheapo single transistor regulator in a radio | 04:45 |
| s0cks | hmm. I wish my install cds would get here. | 04:45 |
| egon_spengler | netsplit: The adapter has slider for 1.5/3/4.5/6 volts DC, based on one, two, three, or four 1.5 v cells. | 04:45 |
| linux_galore | Net so 6v from a power pack after its regulated would hit the power raid at about 4.5 | 04:46 |

| netsplit | linux_galore: is it safe for me to try it then without fear of breaking the adapter or the radio? | 04:47 |

| shaolin_ | my question wasn't that anyways | 05:06 |
| shaolin_ | It was ...what instability would i encoutner | 05:06 |

| linux_galore | lol 2 firefox 1 being stable | 05:07 |
| GotD0t | linux_galore, details | 05:07 |
| shaolin_ | it seems more buggy then 1.0PR | 05:07 |
| netsplit | linux_galore: Why does my PDA want that many amps? | 05:07 |
| GotD0t | then why upgrade? | 05:07 |
| linux_galore | GotD0t: the extensions and themes menu UI tool makes Firefox randomly crash | 05:07 |
| GotD0t | linux_galore, is that true? | 05:07 |
| linux_galore | GotD0t: I went back to 0.9 | 05:08 |
| shaolin_ | it's more stable than .93 | 05:08 |
| shaolin_ | at least the mini back buttons with your history works | 05:08 |
| GotD0t | GAH... i want my warty back | 05:08 |
| shaolin_ | in the vanilla install it becomes greyed out at times | 05:08 |
| shaolin_ | and my mozillamplayer plug-in is missing it's controls | 05:08 |
| shaolin_ | I wanted to try it on 1.0 | 05:09 |
| linux_galore | GotD0t: I wasnt the only person noticing that lots of people noticed how 1.0 was less stable than 0.9x even an article on slashdot about it last week | 05:09 |
| GotD0t | linux_galore, i havent had probs with it | 05:09 |
| linux_galore | although I must admit Java works better on 1.0 | 05:09 |
| shaolin_ | it's better than IE ok | 05:09 |
| shaolin_ | which is at 6.0 | 05:10 |
| GotD0t | linux_galore, then again i didnt have problems with 1PR or .9x | 05:10 |

| netsplit | linux_galore: OK, I got the thing just a little wrong. The radio wants 700mA and 4.5V, so how bad with an adapter that does 5V and 2A? | 05:17 |
| linux_galore | Net I wouldnt go above 1A | 05:17 |
| netsplit | linux_galore: OK, thanks! | 05:18 |
| shaolin_ | dude u don't have enough voltage | 05:18 |
| linux_galore | Net you can get generic 800ma supplies everywhere | 05:18 |
| shaolin_ | make one | 05:18 |
| shaolin_ | step down transformer | 05:18 |
| shaolin_ | then rectifier bridge | 05:19 |
| linux_galore | Net 600->1a 5->6v should be fine | 05:19 |

| shaolin_ | or what about lion? | 05:21 |
| shaolin_ | a laptop battery | 05:22 |
| linux_galore | Net you could always get a cheap assed 6v gel cel battery and use that power pack to recharge it and that cell should run for a few weeks | 05:22 |
| shaolin_ | or just get a new powerpack | 05:22 |
| shaolin_ | lol | 05:22 |
| shaolin_ | i'm not really laughing however | 05:22 |
| linux_galore | depends how mobile he wants to be | 05:22 |
| shaolin_ | he could gut out one of those hand powered flashlights | 05:23 |
| shaolin_ | and connect that | 05:23 |
| shaolin_ | he'd have to keep spinning it around though | 05:23 |
| shaolin_ | weee | 05:23 |
| linux_galore | you can buy a battery pack that holds D cells with a power pack connector and a switch if you want it still portable but to last longer | 05:24 |
| shaolin_ | d cells are huge | 05:24 |
| netsplit | How do I connect that D type batteries to the radio? | 05:24 |
| linux_galore | I saw a wind up radio at the markets they make them cheap now | 05:24 |
| shaolin_ | might as well use the lion | 05:24 |
| sulkd | anyone else having problems getting disks-admin to create new mountpoints and sync them with fstab? | 05:24 |
| shaolin_ | shit....just buy a radio | 05:25 |
| shaolin_ | lol | 05:25 |
| Gmail | why is ubuntu live based on morphix when it can just be gnoppix which is based on ubuntu | 05:25 |
| sulkd | and why does the icon for disks-admin in system-configuration run the app, then ask for a sudo password when I close it at which point it will start it again? | 05:25 |
| linux_galore | Net well you can buy a pre-built battery holder now with the power pack connector and cable already setup just put the d cells in the box and plug the power cable in the power cable socket on the device in question | 05:25 |
| shaolin_ | gnoppix is not based on ubuntu | 05:25 |
| shaolin_ | knoppix/gnoppix and unbuntu are based on debian | 05:26 |
| shaolin_ | gnoppix is just called that cause it uses gnome | 05:26 |
| linux_galore | though Ubuntu is actually more based on morphix/debian | 05:27 |
| linux_galore | thought* | 05:27 |
| shaolin_ | debian is the root | 05:27 |
| shaolin_ | it's not like these people are innovating | 05:27 |
| linux_galore | yes but Ubuntu used morphix to fast track its live CD rigg because morphix is very modular so you can create your own rig easily | 05:28 |
| mdz | shaolin_: gnoppix is (now) based on Ubuntu | 05:28 |
| shaolin_ | does it have k3b? | 05:28 |
| linux_galore | lol doubt it | 05:28 |
| linux_galore | k3b is a kde app | 05:29 |
| mdz | if "it" is gnoppix, then no | 05:29 |
| shaolin_ | u can run k3b on ubuntu | 05:29 |
| shaolin_ | which is gnome | 05:29 |
| shaolin_ | they have a gtk version | 05:29 |
| mdz | you can run it on gnoppix as well, but it is not installed on the live CD that you download | 05:29 |
| gson | hm ive got some problem with the sound in gmplayer | 05:29 |

| shaolin_ | burning 5th hope mp3's | 05:31 |
| linux_galore | so what widget set is k3b using then | 05:31 |
| enntee | I'm having some issues with rhythmbox/gstreamer on ubuntu.

| shaolin_ | gtk! | 05:31 |
| shaolin_ | i just said "gtk version" | 05:31 |
| shaolin_ | just look at the site | 05:31 |
| linux_galore | shaolin_: so the answer to my first question is "yes there is a gtk version of k3b" | 05:31 |
| shaolin_ | if you don't believe me | 05:31 |
| shaolin_ | www.ubuntulinux.org | 05:31 |
| shaolin_ | omg... | 05:32 |
| shaolin_ | i said...gtk version of k3b | 05:32 |
| billytwowilly | gtk version of k3b? | 05:32 |
| shaolin_ | billy get with the program | 05:32 |
| shaolin_ | bottom line you can run k3b on ubuntu | 05:32 |
| billytwowilly | heh. never hear do of it. k3b is horribly broken anyway | 05:32 |
| gson | someone that had some prob with the sound in gmplayer? | 05:32 |
| shaolin_ | WHAt?! | 05:32 |
| shaolin_ | why do you say that | 05:32 |
| billytwowilly | requires kcontrol, which has a file that is included in another kde package I have installed | 05:32 |
| shaolin_ | how do you know it's not just your cdburner | 05:32 |
| shaolin_ | or dvd burner | 05:33 |
| shaolin_ | as the case may be | 05:33 |
| gson | k3b owns | 05:33 |

| === GotD0t [~GotD0t@24.48.147.43] has joined #ubuntu | ||

| === encryptio [~encryptio@user-11214h5.dsl.mindspring.com] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| shaolin_ | it installed on mine | 05:33 |
| gson | same here | 05:33 |
| shaolin_ | no failing at all | 05:33 |
| billytwowilly | yah, it works, just the package is borked, or more accurately, kcontrol and another kde package is borked | 05:33 |
| shaolin_ | kcontrol cdrdao and k3b from apt command line | 05:33 |
| billytwowilly | they provide the same file.. | 05:33 |
| gson | shaolin_ do you use gmplayer? | 05:34 |
| mdz | there is no gtk port of k3b as far as I am aware | 05:34 |
| shaolin_ | yeah | 05:34 |
| shaolin_ | it doesn't even come up | 05:34 |
| mdz | however, you can install the usual KDE version of k3b on Ubuntu | 05:34 |
| gson | no problem with the sound? | 05:34 |
| shaolin_ | but the mozillamplayer plug in works | 05:34 |
| shaolin_ | and so does xmms | 05:34 |
| gson | jupp | 05:34 |
| shaolin_ | sound works | 05:34 |
| gson | xmms works fine and everything else, just gmplayer that wont work:/ | 05:34 |
| billytwowilly | shaolin_, trying to overwrite `/usr/bin/fileshareset', which is also in package kdelibs-bin | 05:34 |
| shaolin_ | but i think a skin or something isn't working | 05:35 |
| billytwowilly | shaolin_, dpkg-deb: subprocess paste killed by signal (Broken pipe) | 05:35 |
| mdz | billytwowilly: warty or hoary? | 05:35 |
| shaolin_ | billy i'm saying mine worked | 05:35 |
| billytwowilly | mdz, it happened in both. I'm currently running hoary | 05:35 |
| gson | oh well, its 05.40 here so iam off to bed | 05:35 |
| shaolin_ | I just burned my friend a dvd yesterday | 05:35 |
| billytwowilly | shaolin_, yah, k3b works fine, it's the package deps that are borked. | 05:35 |
| shaolin_ | i could see that | 05:35 |
| shaolin_ | I've never used kde in my life | 05:36 |
| shaolin_ | aside from casual knoppix use | 05:36 |
| billytwowilly | kde rocks | 05:36 |
| linux_galore | hmm cant find any gtk version of kde listed anywere all QT based | 05:36 |
| shaolin_ | but i stay on commandline | 05:36 |
| billytwowilly | It's better than gnome in so many ways, then again gnome is better than kde in so many ways as well. | 05:36 |
| shaolin_ | it's just preference | 05:36 |
| shaolin_ | I'm not a kde hater or anything | 05:36 |
| shaolin_ | I'm just not use to it | 05:36 |
| shaolin_ | plus it's not totally free | 05:36 |
| linux_galore | gtk based version of k3b sorry | 05:36 |
| shaolin_ | and I believe in free software | 05:36 |
| linux_galore | for starters k3b is c++ | 05:37 |
| billytwowilly | kde is totally free. It uses the gpld version of QT | 05:37 |
| shaolin_ | ok you must not know what gtk and qt are | 05:37 |

| jazzanova__ | hi | 06:10 |
| netsplit | linux_galore: OK, so you're suggesting the initrd was created wrong? | 06:10 |
| reversal | Why, when I change the root password in the terminal as root, its not the same when i log out? | 06:10 |
| netsplit | linux_galore: does it have anything to do with jfsutils? | 06:11 |
| linux_galore | Net no its fine the kernel cant read were init is on the file system .....its 100% a kernel problem | 06:11 |
| linux_galore | Net you using jfs ?? | 06:11 |
| netsplit | Not that I know of. | 06:11 |
| linux_galore | Net jfs is a file system....didnt think Ubuntu used it | 06:11 |
| jazzanova__ | how is ubuntu good ? | 06:12 |
| linux_galore | Net recompile the kernel this time make sure all the ext3/ext2 support is there | 06:12 |
| netsplit | linux_galore: I mean ext3 is a kernel module right? So if it can't read a ext3 file system, the maybe it couldn't load that kernel module? | 06:12 |
| Gmail | i need help formatting a usb thumb | 06:12 |
| linux_galore | Net could be thats why I said check if everything for ext2/3 is marked | 06:13 |
| jazzanova__ | is ubuntu rpm based ? | 06:13 |
| eruin | no | 06:13 |
| linux_galore | jazzanova__: no its debian based | 06:13 |
| jazzanova__ | debian ? | 06:13 |
| eruin | yes | 06:13 |
| jazzanova__ | cool | 06:13 |
| jazzanova__ | so how is it different from debian ? | 06:13 |
| eruin | though debian/rpm arent exactly two comparable things | 06:13 |
| eruin | ;P | 06:13 |
| eruin | it aims to be userfriendly and desktop-oriented | 06:14 |
| linux_galore | jazzanova__: easier less clutter and to_the_point | 06:14 |

| linux_galore | you dont get dep hell with rpm's unless you want it.... | 06:16 |

| linux_galore | urpmi is to rpm as apt-get is to .deb the commands are also very similar | 06:17 |
| reversal | red hat was my first linux distro and i just hated the rpm | 06:17 |
| eruin | rpms ARE inferior to debs, BUT theres nothing wrong with them either, and theyre definately not responsible for your "rpm-hell" | 06:18 |
| eruin | thats because theyd idnt have a package manager then, lol | 06:18 |
| reversal | fedora, im sorry. | 06:18 |
| reversal | core 2 | 06:18 |
| eruin | oh, please do tell me how you managed to get into dependancy hell on fedora with yum | 06:18 |
| linux_galore | usually you find people who get dep problems are when people try to update from a unstable ftp branch or when they download an rpm at random......Ive done all the bad things in the past....these days I just use urpmi for my rpm needs total no brainer | 06:19 |
| reversal | Anyway, with apt, how do you get it to update a program speficially, like firefox? | 06:19 |
| reversal | because i didnt use yum | 06:19 |

| encryptio | then you can't upgrade it | 06:21 |

| eruin | err, apt-get upgrade mozilla-firefox | 06:21 |
| linux_galore | lol | 06:21 |

| LucidVisions | eruin: tell me you have never had urpmi do an unintentional rollback? | 06:22 |
| eruin | LucidVisions: never ever used urpmi | 06:22 |
| eruin | thats mandrake afaik | 06:22 |
| encryptio | well, try upgrading mozilla-firefox instead | 06:22 |
| LucidVisions | then what were you ranting about? | 06:22 |
| eruin | I'm redhat->debian->gentoo->fedora->ubuntu | 06:22 |
| reversal | So what should I add to my sources.lst to include the latest packages? ive already apt-get upgraded and updated | 06:22 |
| linux_galore | yeah urpmi is mandrake but also has been ported to fedora | 06:22 |
| reversal | yeah it says its the latest version | 06:23 |
| eruin | LucidVisions: I havent said squat about urpmi | 06:23 |
| encryptio | reversal: try synaptic for starters. | 06:23 |

| eruin | linux_galore: all of which are available through 3rd party fedora repositories for yum | 06:26 |

| eruin | that's no official mandrake repository either | 06:27 |
| linux_galore | eruin: so there are east euro yum repositories | 06:27 |
| eruin | no, there are non-corporate-associated repositories | 06:27 |
| linux_galore | eruin: found that link from mandrake home help site lol | 06:27 |
| eruin | point is, a corporation based in the shitty US cant supply these packages due to an idiotic legal system | 06:28 |

| LucidVisions | Ahh,,very well | 07:03 |
| linux_galore | no bjc 5XX series printers suported in Linux ouch | 07:03 |
| calamari | is there a way to find out which package a certain library is in, for example: libqt.so.2 | 07:03 |

| jeronim_ | do either of them have shift-style selection? | 07:31 |

| linux_galore | hmm | 07:49 |
| linux_galore | terrible spelling | 07:49 |
| crimsun | _scp: ~/.bash_profile is not read for non-interactive logins | 07:50 |
| LucidVisions | GoneBoB: do you think this matrox is faster than my 9200 cause of the drivers,,i was using the 9200 before with the ubintu fglrx package,, | 07:50 |
| _scp | crimsun, and gnome-terminal is not considered interactive? | 07:50 |
| crimsun | _scp: you should place something in ~/.bashrc if you want it read regardless of login type | 07:50 |
| guile | well i run winXP on it at 1024*768. so res support may not be issue | 07:50 |
| _scp | crimsun, my .bashrc says to read .bash_profile | 07:50 |
| KneelBeforeXorg | _scp: you can configure your current gnome-terminal profile to make your shells a login shell | 07:50 |

| GoneBoB | no | 07:52 |
| GoneBoB | the g550 | 07:52 |
| LucidVisions | ahh | 07:52 |
| GoneBoB | the drivers for the ati in linux are ... not very good | 07:52 |
| GoneBoB | the matrox drivers are fairly mature | 07:53 |
| calc | they seem to work great for 2d | 07:53 |
| GoneBoB | calc: well yes | 07:53 |
| GoneBoB | but wrt 3d | 07:53 |

| GoneBoB | .. which he does | 07:53 |
| calc | ah | 07:53 |
| LucidVisions | maya,,blender | 07:53 |
| LucidVisions | etc... | 07:53 |
| LucidVisions | calc: many things need 3d | 07:53 |

| === linux_galor1 [~linux_gal@210.50.97.124] has joined #ubuntu | ||

| calc | GoneBoB: 9200 is basically a 8500 | 07:56 |
| LucidVisions | calc: im blown away also,,the g550 has a half ass directx 8 t&l unit,,but its beating my 9200 by around 10-15% on average | 07:56 |
| calc | 550 is basically a g400 which is from ~ 1998 | 07:56 |
| LucidVisions | so the g550 is directx 7 then? | 07:56 |
| calc | LucidVisions: i think so, though they might have updated it to 8 | 07:56 |
| LucidVisions | and the 9200 directx 8 gpu? | 07:56 |
| calc | not really certain | 07:56 |
| calc | yes 9200 is dx8 | 07:57 |
| GoneBoB | yeah but the matrox drivers are essentially the best 3d drivers that linux has seen ever | 07:57 |
| GoneBoB | so you're getting 100% of the hardware | 07:57 |
| LucidVisions | true,the xorg composite stuff is running fast also | 07:57 |
| GoneBoB | a friend of mine has a 9600XT that can barely run unreal tournament under linux | 07:58 |
| Seq | i have a 9200 and it sucked for anything other than desktop use, really | 07:58 |
| GoneBoB | yet my FX5700 (approx equiv) runs very fast | 07:58 |
| GoneBoB | seq:yep | 07:58 |
| LucidVisions | do you use the xorg composite stuff? | 07:58 |
| calc | not surprising, ati sucks at opengl everywhere | 07:59 |
| Seq | its nice using the OS drivers, but switching to firegl drivers gives you slight speed increase (also: instability and a nice memory leak) | 07:59 |
| === LucidVisions slaps memory leak | ||
| LucidVisions | yeah,,for once im glad i have this matrox,im happy for now | 08:00 |
| Seq | the advantage of having the 9200 was it was a graphics card that didnt completely suck (though it mostly did in retrospect), that can be used without binary drivers and cost under $100 canadian | 08:00 |
| LucidVisions | i should get a parheilla,or do you think that nvidas drivers are more mature? | 08:01 |

| LucidVisions | and reconfigure the card? | 08:44 |
| pdaous1 | perhaps | 08:44 |
| alka_trash | might do too | 08:44 |

| pdaous1 | okay, yeah, I feel like a boob....... I re-uploaded all the MP3 and OGG files to the computer (it's a jukebox server running MPD), tried playing the songs again, and -- voila! -- works perfectly. | 08:45 |
| pdaous1 | which kinda confuses me, because the files were exactly the same size on my comp as they were on the remote comp. | 08:46 |
| alka_trash | ass | 08:46 |
| LucidVisions | odd indeed.. | 08:46 |
| pdaous1 | but anyway, it's just another example of Nautilus BOTCHING ftp uploads. | 08:46 |
| Treenaks | pdaous1: permission issue? | 08:46 |
| pdaous1 | Treenaks: not even; it's just Nautilus, I think | 08:46 |
| Treenaks | pdaous1: in other news, use sftp/ssh connections, they're more secure? | 08:46 |
| LucidVisions | ssh= pimpness | 08:47 |
| alka_trash | I'm glad that it's working though | 08:47 |
| pdaous1 | Treenaks: dunno, is it necessary? both computers are behind a router | 08:47 |
| pdaous1 | alka_trash: yeah, I'm glad too -- sorry for confusing you guys ^_^ | 08:47 |
| Treenaks | pdaous1: still... I don't have ftp anywhere.. | 08:47 |
| Treenaks | pdaous1: I just use ssh | 08:47 |
| pdaous1 | Treenaks: but you use sftp as an alternative? | 08:48 |
| Treenaks | yes | 08:48 |
| pdaous1 | Treenaks: dumb question, and maybe I should just go 'man proftpd', but can ProFTP tunnel its goodness over SSH? | 08:48 |
| Treenaks | pdaous1: probably not | 08:48 |
| Treenaks | pdaous1: or maybe it can, but that's not sftp... | 08:50 |
| Treenaks | pdaous1: for sftp you need sshd | 08:50 |
| Treenaks | pdaous1: no thing more. | 08:50 |
| pdaous1 | Treenaks: righto. | 08:50 |
| Treenaks | for "FTP over TLS" you can use proftpd or vsftpd I think | 08:50 |
| Treenaks | but that's different :) | 08:50 |
| pdaous1 | Treenaks: cool, thanks -- I'll look into it. I've been able to tunnel X sessions and bash sessions over SSH, but it's all still magical to me; I don't even know how it works ^_^ | 08:50 |
| Abercrombie | Anyone knows how I can install a different Login Look? | 08:50 |
| alka_trash | vsftp rocks | 08:50 |
| pdaous1 | Abercrombie: I think so... where is it... | 08:50 |
| Treenaks | Abercrombie: in the 'Computer' menu, under | 08:50 |
| Treenaks | Abercrombie: System Configuration | 08:50 |
| Treenaks | Abercrombie: there's an entry about the login screen | 08:50 |
| pdaous1 | yeah, that's right. If you go to the 'Graphical Greeter' under the aforementioned login screen setup, there's a 'Install new theme' button. Just press the button and use the file chooser to find your .tar.gz or .tar.bz2 GDM theme file. It automagically unzips it and installs it into /usr/share/themes or something like that. | 08:51 |

| pdaous1 | Treenaks: that's what I thought. | 08:59 |
| pdaous1 | but ssh just handles the connection, and regular traffic tunnels through it, right? | 08:59 |
| pdaous1 | for instance, when I get a shell account by going ssh paul@othercomputer, is it a telnet-over-ssh tunnel, or what? | 08:59 |

| king_arthur | rapha: OK that's understandable but what is your problem with resolv.conf? | 10:01 |
| rapha | I want dhclient (or another DHCP client, for that matter) to assign an IP address and a gateway UP but NOT touch my resolv.conf. Problem is that the routers DNS server is broken, it always returns the first IP address it was asked for. | 10:02 |

| rapha | I KNOW it is the server, but the client makes the change to my resolv.conf in the end. | 10:05 |
| king_arthur | BTW it's dhcp server that assigns IP's not the clienshould be possible to reconfigure that. have you tried http://10.0.0.1? | 10:06 |

| melazyboy | king_arthur: And are you using a SiS network card? | 11:26 |
| melazyboy | I don't even thing they make one | 11:26 |
| king_arthur | melazyboy: and no, I can't get a dhcp driver but that might have been disabled from my router | 11:26 |
| melazyboy | err lspci should show the cards info, lsmod will show the modules loaded | 11:26 |
| melazyboy | ifup runs with dhcp | 11:27 |
| king_arthur | Okky dokky let me try | 11:27 |
| king_arthur | melazyboy: but the weirdest thing is that I made a full install trough network | 11:27 |
| king_arthur | melazyboy: so everything necessary was there | 11:28 |

| wood1 | which logs ? | 11:30 |
| potato | in /var/log/samba | 11:31 |
| melazyboy | king_arthur: I think you got me.. im not sure what exactly is going on with your box, you could modprobe if you know the drivers you could run ifup again and google with the error message, but its beyond me never had that before | 11:31 |
| king_arthur | melazyboy: did you get that one? | 11:31 |
| king_arthur | melazyboy: :-( | 11:31 |
| king_arthur | melazyboy: but this is shitty as everything worked real fine | 11:32 |

| wood1 | I am now using Hoary in one of my machines, what will happen if I switch it back to Warty ? | 11:35 |
| king_arthur | melazyboy: anyway, I have learnt from the past that when things get real bad you just stop for a while and after a few days you may find a solution | 11:35 |
| potato | I tend to run a WINS server on the linux machine and all the other machines get told that by the dhcp server | 11:35 |
| melazyboy | If you cant run ifconfig, you have a driver problem... ifconfig eth0 10.0.0.3 255.0.0.0 up | 11:35 |

| king_arthur | melazyboy: I know so what I am wanting to do is look for the driver but I was used do modconfig which apparently is not here anymore | 11:36 |
| king_arthur | melazyboy: I know I know | 11:36 |
| melazyboy | king_arthur: modprobe is very easy to use, modprobe <driver name> | 11:36 |
| king_arthur | melazyboy: I know but this is assuming that driver is already installed | 11:37 |
| king_arthur | melazyboy: It just triggers the module | 11:37 |

| crimsun | FSK405C: sudo alsaconf | 11:39 |
| king_arthur | melazyboy: but thay wan't be all compiled into the Kernel I hope | 11:39 |
| melazyboy | king_arthur: They will all be compiled as modules, you just modprobe them to get them into the kernel | 11:40 |
| FSK405C | thx crim | 11:40 |
| king_arthur | melazyboy: that gives for a HUGE kernell but I gess this is to make it suitable for most of us | 11:40 |

| Matt| | damn you all... | 12:37 |
| Nap | but yes, if for example you want to use totem-xine, no more ubuntu-desktop | 12:38 |
| Matt| | correct | 12:38 |
| bob2 | right | 12:38 |
| bob2 | but you're saying 'I don't want the supported set of installed packages' | 12:38 |
| Matt| | and also if you have a small hard drive and want to remove some programs you don't use | 12:38 |
| Matt| | bob2, if gamin was brought in by the gnome upgrade, or the fam removal, then that would be 100 less questions in here | 12:39 |
| Matt| | maybe more | 12:39 |
| bob2 | it's in the faq | 12:39 |
| Matt| | *laughs* | 12:39 |
| bob2 | and only affects people who explicitly removed stuff | 12:39 |
| bob2 | totally not my decision, but my sympathy is low | 12:39 |
| Matt| | bob2, the liberty to remove programs is important | 12:40 |
| Matt| | imo | 12:40 |
| bob2 | you can | 12:40 |
| bob2 | and then you can look at what ubuntu-desktop installs and make sure you have the important bits | 12:40 |

| Matt| | oh well its no big deal i guess | 12:41 |
| Kamion | Matt|: hoary's still in development, so it may well be changed, and I believe Jeff's been thinking about it; however if it isn't we'll include it in the hoary upgrade notes | 12:41 |

| Matt| | true | 12:41 |
| Matt| | Kamion, i was just voicing my opinion | 12:42 |
| Matt| | no biggie | 12:42 |
| Kamion | sure, it's a valid opinion; just saying that this sort of thing happens in development trees | 12:42 |

| sangreal1969 | I'm trying to install Ubuntu on a AMD64, but the installations stops | 12:59 |
| ogra | TheCan: if you can get it through a dep-src sources.list line, sudo apt-get build-dep && sudo apt-get souce -b <packagename> | 12:59 |
| Kamion | sangreal1969: need more detail than that | 12:59 |
| sangreal1969 | at hardware reconqnition... the last command I see is: module 'aic7xxx' for | 12:59 |
| TheCan | yeah but those are kernel modules i thought it was done with make-kpkg then | 12:59 |
| sangreal1969 | adaptec AHA 7850 is being loaded | 12:59 |
| sangreal1969 | and then the system just stops | 01:00 |
| sangreal1969 | any ideas? | 01:00 |
| ogra | TheCan: not if they build a external package..... make-kpkg builds a kernel and module package are you sure thinkpad-modules goes in this module package ? | 01:01 |
| TheCan | ogra, ah i found it | 01:01 |
| TheCan | make-kpkg --added-modules thinkpad did the trick | 01:01 |

| Kamion | sangreal1969: probably won't actually help you get further though, just to narrow it down | 01:04 |
| sangreal1969 | Kamion: I will try that, but this card was never before a problem with any other OS | 01:05 |

| cristiano | ogra: thx!!^^ | 01:09 |
| TheCan | is there a way to load them from /etc/modules this way? | 01:09 |
| TheCan | cause i dont think modprobe really finds the modules in there | 01:10 |
| ogra | TheCan: /etc/modules just executes modprobe | 01:10 |
| TheCan | ogra, yes but i think it looks rather in /lib/modules/kernelversion/drivers | 01:10 |

| StarScreem | that uses fireframe | 02:53 |
| Matt| | bob2, sorted it by adding the initrd to grub and ignoring that weird ## section. Thanks. | 02:54 |
| StarScreem | dad: and if you have 3d accel you can turn on XComposite and XDamage in Xorg | 02:54 |
| dad | hello starscream and yes ogra if i may Id like to learn more about linux | 02:54 |

| ogra | dad: you found the right place ;) | 02:54 |
| dad | looks like it:) | 02:54 |
| bob2 | Matt|: yeah | 02:54 |
| Matt| | i think that as long as you don't use "grub-update" then the commented section doesn't matter | 02:55 |
| ogra | kandinski: what does it offer ? | 02:55 |
| daniels | artifacts are not 'a side effect of X' | 02:55 |
| daniels | they're a bug that should be fixed | 02:55 |
| daniels | but if it's an nVidia card, then they're the only people who can fix them | 02:55 |
| cenerentola | ppl where does gnome-session-manager puts his hands in? | 02:55 |
| StarScreem | daniels, true.. | 02:55 |
| StarScreem | dad its not a prob, i'm running ibook g3 800 | 02:55 |
| StarScreem | dad but unfortunately ATI dont make PPC linux drivers | 02:56 |
| dad | im not really bothered too much but id like to be able to drag windows without big black holes appearing | 02:56 |
| StarScreem | so if you have an ATI card your stuck with framebuffer which is much slower | 02:56 |
| daniels | StarScreem: sure they do | 02:56 |
| daniels | StarScreem: untrue. | 02:56 |
| bob2 | (he's using the nv driver, not the binary one) | 02:56 |
| StarScreem | daniels, where....? | 02:56 |
| daniels | bob2: which is as good as the same thing | 02:56 |
| dad | no i have an nvidia i think | 02:56 |
| kandinski | it offers "partition" and shows the whole disk | 02:56 |
| kandinski | when I try to get to the install part, it tries to do a partition anyway | 02:56 |
| daniels | StarScreem: /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/{ati{,misc},r{128,adeon}}_drv.o | 02:56 |
| kandinski | it starts by asking if I want to create a new partition table | 02:57 |
| StarScreem | daniels, doesn't work with my card man... | 02:57 |
| daniels | StarScreem: what sort of card do you have? | 02:57 |
| bob2 | daniels: ah | 02:57 |
| daniels | StarScreem: i have not heard of any powerpc ati card unsupported by the standard driver | 02:57 |
| StarScreem | daniels, its onboard ati 7500? g3 ibook | 02:57 |
| daniels | StarScreem: works fine | 02:57 |
| StarScreem | daniels i can only use framebuffer....x just wont display anything... | 02:58 |
| StarScreem | even the default config for ubuntu uses framebuffer | 02:58 |
| daniels | StarScreem: please file a bug on https://bugzilla.ubuntu.com with the content of /var/log/XFree86.0.log, /etc/X11/XF86Config-4, and the output of lspci | 02:58 |
| dad | so i guess im stuck with the artifcats then ?:) | 02:58 |
| daniels | StarScreem: no, the default configuration has UseFBDev, which is entirely different to using the framebuffer | 02:59 |
| daniels | UseFBDev still gives you 2D acceleration, unlike the fb proper | 02:59 |
| StarScreem | daniels, its not ubuntu..it was the same with yellow dog, debian, mandrake | 02:59 |
| daniels | but, that being said, I have a patch that should eliminate the need for UseFBDev | 02:59 |
| StarScreem | i've tried almost every PPC distro | 02:59 |
| daniels | StarScreem: even so, I would love to see the output so we can hopefully fix this small bug | 02:59 |
| StarScreem | k | 02:59 |

| jblack | Just woke up from a nap, and nobody's here. :) | 03:01 |
| daniels | heh! | 03:01 |
| StarScreem | daniels, even so, ati dont make 3d ppc linux drivers which was the point of my initial conversation with dad | 03:01 |
| daniels | they're all off being all touristy? | 03:01 |
| ogra | jblack: kandinski is at the installer :) | 03:01 |

| bob2 | StarScreem: yes they do | 03:01 |
| jblack | ogra: Ahhhh. | 03:01 |
| kandinski | jblack, from where? from the ubuntu console? will that apt-get install to ramdisk? | 03:01 |
| daniels | StarScreem: radeons up to the 9250 are fully supported for all architectures | 03:01 |
| bob2 | StarScreem: my ibook g4 has excellent 3d acceleration | 03:01 |
| daniels | StarScreem: by fully supported, I mean 2D and 3D acceleration | 03:01 |
| dad | but i have an nvidia ? lol | 03:01 |
| StarScreem | hmm | 03:01 |
| daniels | everything above that has basic 2D acceleration | 03:01 |
| jblack | kandinski: Sorry. Misunderstood what you were doing. There's an fdisk equivilant in the installer that you can massage. | 03:01 |
| kandinski | I have a blank disk (well, windows in it) as far as Ubuntu is concerned | 03:01 |
| StarScreem | so i can use composite then? | 03:02 |
| daniels | dad: yeah, unfortunately nVidia are the only ones who can even think about fixing your problem | 03:02 |
| ogra | dad: look in the device-manager... it should be listed there | 03:02 |

| ogra | kandinski: probably cfdisk | 03:04 |
| dad | yes i found the card but have no idea what to look for :) | 03:04 |
| ogra | dad: you sounded not sure if its an nvidia....this should be written there..... | 03:05 |
| jblack | Either you passed it, or you're not there yet. Look for the part where you define your root filesystem | 03:05 |
| dad | oh yes its a nvifia gforce 4 mx 440 | 03:05 |

| wood1 | ogra, I think that I have not installed the Samba Server in the first place | 03:38 |

| _|Imanewbie|_ | should I buy a new mobo? | 04:02 |
| bob2 | TheEdge: not in warty | 04:02 |
| bob2 | _|Imanewbie|_: why? what is it too slow for? | 04:03 |
| TheEdge | ah :( | 04:03 |
| _|Imanewbie|_ | Because A7S333 doesnt support ram 400 or I can stay cool with ram 333? | 04:03 |

| bob2 | _|Imanewbie|_: do you really know how much faster 400MBHz ram is? | 04:03 |
| _|Imanewbie|_ | bob2: ogra so I should keep the mobo right? | 04:03 |
| TheEdge | so I should change my distro ? | 04:03 |
| _|Imanewbie|_ | bob2: I assumo something like 100x = nothing | 04:03 |

| bob2 | TheEdge: erm, if you want | 04:04 |
| bob2 | TheEdge: don't know of any others that include that fix | 04:04 |
| TheEdge | So it's not a specific issue to ubuntu | 04:04 |
| ogra | _|Imanewbie|_: what kind of high perfomance computing tasks do you want to run ? *g* | 04:04 |
| _|Imanewbie|_ | so he best deal would be buy a new processor and 512 ram 333? | 04:05 |

| d0gmaz | if i install freebsd wich uses grub everything goes fine i get 2 choices 1. Freebsd 2. unknown (windowsxp) but if i install ubuntu i can choose windows but it doesnt boot | 04:35 |
| wood1 | Well, Slackman, I can browse the Network with no problem, it's the shares that I can't access | 04:35 |
| Slackman | jcoventry, whats the prob/error? | 04:35 |
| jcoventry | it cant mount the CD-ROM | 04:35 |
| jcoventry | yet it burned fine and i did the checksum in terminal under Mac OS X. | 04:35 |
| Slackman | wood1, check the permissions on the dirs otherwise it may be the problem ogra was describing | 04:35 |

| ogra | wood1: read what i wrote before ? look in bugzilla....if its not already there, file a bug :) | 04:39 |
| d0gmaz | jcocentry do you burn with toast? | 04:39 |

Also, using amd64 binaries makes things a bit bothersome, as there aren't always 64bit binaries around. So I'm wondering if there would be much difference in performance/etc. if running a 32bit os..? | 04:40 |

| pmfp | newtolinux: ls lists contents of a directory (man ls, if you want options or other info), the | pipes/shovels the output to something, in this case grep, and grep only lets through the lines containing what comes after it, in this case ftp | 11:59 |
