Quest-MasterI used Suse before Ubuntu12:00
|QuaD|SuSE_UsER: i removed suse 3 days after putting it on12:00
Matt|*laughs* now now12:00

=== netmonk [~netmonk@nat-30.c0msys.net] has joined #ubuntu
SuSE_UsERMatt|: because i want to test another one distro after mandrake ,suse and knoppix12:01
Matt|SuSE_UsER, pick one and stick with it is my advice12:01
=== netmonk [~netmonk@nat-30.c0msys.net] has joined #ubuntu
|QuaD|SuSE_UsER: imho, pick debian, knoppix or ubuntu12:02
|QuaD|each has their plus's and minus's12:02
=== netmonk [~netmonk@nat-30.c0msys.net] has joined #ubuntu
Matt|meh it doesn't really matter they're all the same12:02
Matt|they all work12:02
|QuaD|Matt|: yeah12:02
sjoerdyou can't really compair knoppix and debian or ubuntu..12:03
|QuaD|sjoerd: why?12:03
SuSE_UsERwell i just want to check more then 3 :012:03
Matt|if you stick with one, you stand a chance of actually learning how it works12:03
gumpishE: Couldn't find package mplayer12:03
Matt|gumpish, wiki, restrictedformats12:03
=== intinig|away is now known as intinig
|QuaD|SuSE_UsER: i reccomend trying slackware and gentoo if you are looking to learn about the many different ones12:03
sjoerd|QuaD|: because knoppix is life cd, while the other two are normal distributions12:03
mhessyou know what they say:12:03
|QuaD|sjoerd: you can install sjoerd12:04
SuSE_UsERi thought about fedora12:04
mhesslearn red hat and you'll know how to use red hat12:04
mhesslearn Slackware and you'll know how to use linux12:04
sjoerd|QuaD|: i hope you can't install me :).. Yeah you can install knoppix, but then your using knoppix as your debian installer basically12:04
thoreauputicSuSE_UsER: I hope the fedora thought passed quickly to /dev/null ;)12:04
Matt|the variety between distros is really quite minimal once you actuall start understanding how things work.12:04
sjoerdSuSE_UsER: if you want to try, use them at least for a few monts..12:05
mhessthat's mostly true12:05
|QuaD|Matt|: yeah12:05
sjoerdSuSE_UsER: otherwise your just trying the install :)12:05
SuSE_UsER:)12:05
mhessSuSE_UsER, LFS12:06
SuSE_UsERmhess: lfs?12:06
mhess"Linux From Scratch"12:06
mhessprobably the easiest distro out there12:07
mhessbest installer ever12:07
SuSE_UsERmhess: im not looking for very easy distro12:07
SuSE_UsERsuse is easy enough12:07
SuSE_UsERi want to try something different ;)12:07
mhesshttp://www.linuxfromscratch.org/12:08
Matt|SuSE_UsER, try drugs12:08
gilligan_Matt|: hrm.no..wrong assumption.. gnome still wont start..12:08
mhessgilligan_, does X start?12:08
Matt|gilligan_, ok paste me the output of "mount" in a /query12:08

Matt|gumpish, you added the correct repository? You have to read all the way down the wiki12:10
gumpishnm - skipped to the relevant portion12:10

Ribsno, it's a binary package12:39
RibsThe source isn't avalible12:40

Ribsscizzo: No12:40
RibsIt's a binary package, only avaible for x8612:40

SymbolixAre there different versions of the debian installer, and which one do I need to download to be compatible with the Ubuntu cd?02:12
mdkedoes anyone know by any chance how to set firefox to open links in new tab by default with left button, and close tabs by default by clicking on them with left button? I can't find the right option02:13
jdodsonsymbolix: there is one debian installer that comes on the cd.02:13
Symbolixjdod: I know, but im using floppy installation02:13
SymbolixWhenever I try to load kernels from the cd, the installer states that the kernel and the installer are not compatible versions. Do I need to dl diff floppy imgs?02:13
housetiermdke edit -> preferences -> tabbed browsing02:13
housetier"Load links in:"02:14

Symbolixjodo: Yeah, i have dl'd several images, none work02:14
far_awaymdke there used to be an extension that did what you wanted02:14
housetierSymbolix you can try to boot from floppy wiht the smart bootmanager, which then can "boot" your cdrom02:15
jdodsonsymbolix: yeah i would give that a try.02:15
housetierSymbolix I have used the smart bootmanager on systems that can't boot from cd02:15

hyrcanhehe07:30
hyrcanreversal how is the time messed up?07:30
GotD0treversal`: time is messed up in windows? probably because its retarded and doesn't know how to read the system clock... or your battery for the clock is dead and ubuntu updates from time servers on startup07:31
hyrcanhehe...07:31
GotD0tand if you've got win xp it updates from servers that are about 10 seconds off07:31
GotD0twhich pissed me off so much07:31
reversal`no, i mean, the time is fine, it just happens after i restart from ubuntu07:31
GotD0tbut not on startup07:31
hyrcanI think it's more likly that linux thinks the system clock is set to UTC where as windows normally sets it to local time...07:31
reversal`no not 10 seconds, like hours lol.07:32

hyrcanCalamari: let me see if I can't figure it out...07:33
GotD0treversal`: yea... it must be because linux sets the system clock to UTC and then adjusts for time zones and windows thinks the system clock is set to local time07:35

paulproteusFor compatibility with Ubuntu's kernels, when you do make-kpkg kernel_image, do make-kpkg --initrd kernel_image instead.12:56
ctdNexinarus: Use the '-r' option for wget12:56
paulproteusOr "-c" for "--continue".12:57
paulproteusctd: "-r" is recursive.  That's not what he wants, I think.12:57

NexinarusAha i have finally got dvd's to play!01:04
NexinarusIf anyone is interested, my first problem was that i linked /dev/dvd to /dev/cdrom (as i have a combo drive) but i forgot to set read permission priviliages. secondly i didnt have libdvdcss2 installed so i couldnt play encrypted dvd's. Now they play perfect01:05
paulproteusRibs: Sure. :)01:07
paulproteusOh, wait, ribs.01:07
paulproteusrun this at a console:01:07
paulproteusdate -I01:07
paulproteusIt outputs the date in ISO format.  ISO format has a lot of advantages, and you should put them to work for you in your kernel package version.01:07
paulproteusso:01:07
paulproteusmake-kpkg --append-to-version=.`date -I`-custom --initrd kernel_image01:07
paulproteusThe backticks will capture the output of "date -I" and put it there; so that way, it comes out nice and clean and readable, and it sorts correctly, and it's automatic.01:08

jcoleAmaranth: in linux the problem is just fixed, no need for so-called av-software... in winduhs there is just too much code for m$ to rewrite, so the obvious hack is to install av software...08:20

wood1Well what kind of files do you normally send to Window's Clients ?09:26
SynekHm, funny, Ubuntu didn't ask me for root pass during the install09:26
mdkeSynek, check the Faq for root password09:27
pepsi_Synek, it doesnt... there is no password.. use sudo09:27
wood1.exe  , .pif  , jsp ???09:27
SynekSo i can't ;)09:27
wood1Synek just type:    sudo passwd root09:27
mdkewood1, don't tell people that09:27
mdkeSynek, you don't need the root account09:28
wood1then type in your own password first09:28
PotajiTocan i have hardware acelerated shadows with xorg using xcompmgr with an ati 8500. I have them with an gforce2mx09:28

mdkewood1, well the ubuntu developers have decided that it is a good idea09:29
wood1Well I like the sudo thing too myself09:29
mdkewood1, and they know what they're talking about :)09:30
wood1But I really don't want to type the password everytime I sudo09:30
melazyboyPotajiTo: No i don't believe you can, fglrx does not work with the new xorg yet and i dont believe dri works with anything above the 825009:30
mdkewood1, you don't have to09:30
wood1By the way, I looove see the root@hostname !!!!!09:30
PotajiToi've heard that is above 900009:30
mdkewood1, it saves your password for a limited time. and if you want a shell with root permissions, you can type sudo -s09:30
scotthPotajiTo, I think its something like that, I heard someone was working on making the driver sane, but work was going slow09:30
mdkethat will give you the root@ thing too09:30
melazyboyPotajiTo: I know i can't, im using the 9800. FGLRX doesn't work with xorg, and dri doesn't support my card09:30
