[12:10] Nor an Ubuntu_Cray.... :-) [12:10] I was thinking an Ubuntu athlon and Ubuntu pentium2 or something :) [12:10] anyways, see ya [12:10] hays, the i386 version will work fine, though just today I installed on a P2 300 w/ 64 MB Ram. It sucked. Slow as a dog! [12:11] Nick_Jacked: apt-get install xfce4 [12:12] Nick_Jacked, yeah... well :) [12:12] I kinda think the gentoo users have half a point... its worth it to compile for architecture at least [12:13] hays, I'd recommend Athlon or P3 at 700+. jcole, agreeded, yet OOo took 2.5 minutes to load. I realize xfce4, Abiword, and Gnumeric would work great, it would be nice if the installer realized the cpu and mem and offered xfce instead of GNOME. [12:13] abiword has most of the normal functionality of OOo [12:13] and about 10x the speed [12:14] HrdwrBoB, and great tools that OOo doesn't offer.... [12:14] im using a dell laptop here p2/266 with 128mb and it runs fine [12:15] AndyR, The jump in RAM from 64 to 128 is what allows that probably.... [12:15] I don't have any old RAM around to test that though...... [12:15] hays: not really [12:15] open office is the opensource newcomer and hasn't been refined yet, just as abiword and gnumeric have... [12:15] hays: you'll find the overall difference is usually... not more than standard variance [12:16] jcole: it's not exactly new [12:16] Ya, StarOffice 5.2 ROCKED!!! :-) [12:17] OO.o is a bit slow starting granted [12:17] HrdwrBoB, then why do those CPU companies spend so much money developing new instructions? [12:17] HrdwrBoB: not exactly new is still new, just take a look at how long netscape mozilla took to be refined after it was open sourced... [12:18] jcole: true but abiword is getting better than OOo writer, coming fomr the opposite direction [12:18] HrdwrBoB: plus, sun only lets a few "outsiders" modify the code... === Muskrat_24 [~will@tx-65-41-78-250.dyn.sprint-hsd.net] has joined #ubuntu [12:18] I've never been a huge fan of ooo [12:19] Gnumeric pretty much kicks its ass and so does abiword [12:19] hays: most of those improvements are kernel level [12:19] hays: if you run an athlon 64 with a 64 bit kernel and an entirely 32 bit userspace you can see MASSIVE improvements [12:19] definately kernel is the most important === Hikaru79 [~hikaru79@d57-4-59.home.cgocable.net] has joined #ubuntu [12:19] there is no need whatsoever to compile everything with crazy 'extensions' and 'accelerations' [12:20] but there are programs like mplayer and encoders that it makes a difference [12:20] yes of course [12:20] however.... even in ubuntu and other distros [12:20] you download an optimised mplayer [12:20] Holy crap... :| [12:20] the people that make distributions aren't stupid [12:20] HrdwrBoB: if one thinks copy and pasting between apps is important, the only thing that gnumeric and abiword lack is ole [12:21] I was following a HOWTO on the Ubuntu forums === Nexinarus [~nexinarus@218-101-74-143.dialup.clear.net.nz] has joined #ubuntu [12:21] And did 'sudo apt-get install kernel-686' [12:21] It did it's stuff fine [12:21] I restarted [12:21] And now...

(fglrx) [12:24] Hikaru79, hum, I just am not yet familiar enough yet with Ubuntu to know for sure. Sorry. [12:24] x_x Gah [12:24] I wanted to know something please ? I've installed my radeon 8500 driver, made the modif in /etc/modules to load fglrx and it's still MESA driver that is loaded. I looked into var/logs/ and there's no error message about radeon driver... anyone knows about my problem please ? [12:24] Hikaru79, in Fedora you'd need to download and install a new module for the kernel version, but it seems not the case on Ubuntu. === root___ [~root@rdu26-84-078.nc.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu === root___ [~root@rdu26-84-078.nc.rr.com] has left #ubuntu [] === walter [~root@rdu26-84-078.nc.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu [12:25] hello === personman [~prsnmn@adsl-66-142-237-128.dsl.kscymo.swbell.net] has joined #ubuntu [12:26] insomny, no, but I'd like to take this opportunity to make sure you know that the free DRI drivers (included with Ubuntu) do support the 8500 as well, if you don't get the fglrx working [12:26] anyone know how to put other files in my applications? [12:26] HrdwrBoB, I've wondered how much difference it makes... almost bought a new computer to do the whole upgrade shuffle through the house [12:26] hays: a whole lot :) [12:26] is it possible that hotplug can lead to a system crash ? [12:26] mirak: entirely possible [12:27] unlikely [12:27] I had a crash when switching on a printer [12:27] but yes [12:27] can anyone tell me what driver to use with a lexmark z715? [12:28] personman I have a lexmark disposable printer [12:28] I used it with vmware until it ran out of ink [12:28] and I bought a new one [12:28] that was supported :) [12:28] I wonder if the i845 will ever be composite/render accelerated.

[12:32] L`WldRbit, I would be surprised if any such recommendation existed [12:32] insomny, /var/log/XFree86.0.log (note that installing fglrx might've made it so that not much useful info is available there for the purpose of DRI debugging, I don't really know...)

[12:37] swab_: cool, will get it all in then [12:37] StevenR: Yes, but room for nothing else [12:37] L`WldRbit, well, I would say that ubuntu is probably a good distro since like any distro if you need something outside what is offered, you can build it yourself.

[01:33] ermo: sort of like doing your own website but using a wiki that everyone can do thingys in === thoreauputic [~peter@wolax6-204.dialup.optusnet.com.au] has joined #ubuntu [01:34] Mailing lists are mostly for the dev team to report changes and stuff [01:34] I'm just curious, that's all. It seems to me that community knowledge (questions, tips etc) should be unified somehow... [01:34] Hikaru79, ok. Thought so. [01:34] As for information flow, Wiki should be like a giant repository for information, while the forum is like a quick resource to ask questions that you cannot/refuse to find on the Wiki. [01:34] They're complementary media, imo ^^ ; [01:35] Hikaru79, well said. You have satisfied my curiosity :) [01:35] :) [01:36] Hikaru79, for instance, the gentoo forums have 'stickies' and FAQs. I'd think that they'd really belong on the wiki site? [01:36] in ubuntu, I mean? [01:37] Right; important information that should be easily found and well-organized should be in the Wiki [01:38] Is this 'policy'?

[04:14] nautilus-cd-burner just starts using 100% CPU and never seems to write (gave it 4 hours of 100% cpu before killing it) [04:14] and nautilus appears to stomp on k3b somehow. [04:14] Am I missing something? [04:14] Or should I just kill off Nautilus and hal and dbus when I launch k3b? [04:15] nautilus-cd-burner sucks. =( k3b is the only KDE app that I use. Have you tried xcdroast? [04:15] Wait, k3b crashes? [04:15] No. It gets corrupted. [04:15] I burn DVD's with k3b. [04:15] I've coastered 4 discs. [04:15] Ouch. [04:15] On Hoary? [04:15] Worked on Warty for me. [04:15] bronson_, growisofs on the cmdline works easily for me [04:15] can I build a kernel in ubuntu the same way I did in debian with kernel-package using the downloaded source package 2.6.9 and running make-kpkg clean && make-kpkg kernel-image [04:15] usual, yes. [04:15] I think new hal/nautilus volume management is stomping on it... [04:15] :) [04:15] Oh, well, that was on Warty. This is distressing; I was just about to start backing up on DVD's tonight (I upgraded because I broke X in Warty) [04:16] Well, I'm getting frustrated... [04:16] But I could very easily be missing something. [04:16] Or, maybe I just had 4 bad blanks in a row. :) [04:16] haha :) [04:16] Do you have any RW's? [04:16] no. [04:16] Maybe I should ... for just such an occasion. [04:17] I haven't managed to get sound working under warty, but the same card is detected by fedora flawlessly. Is there anything in particular I can take notes from on fedora to help me get it running under ubuntu?

[04:17] I'll give it a shot. [04:18] bronson: growisofs -Z /dev/dvd -R -J /some/file [04:18] burns a single file to the disc? [04:18] or will /some/dir work? [04:18] smo: I have a friend whose sound worked fine on Fedora, but just _wouldn't_ work on Ubuntu. He eventually gave up and went back to Windows. [04:18] joliet format, yes somedir is fine [04:18] smo: I don't know what to say, I wasn't able to find out what was wrong. [04:19] Does anyone here use Muine? [04:19] boodle: doesn't look too hard.

It burned them. [04:32] heh. that sucks. [04:32] geppy, per nvidia's readme in their linux driver, it supports x.org just the same (sposedly) [04:32] Lessee, that's 6 symlinks, perhaps the smallest amount of data burned to a DVD ever. [04:32] boodle: That's what I thought. I've never had a problem with it, for sure. =) [04:32] bronson_: hahaha [04:33] On the bright side, it didn't get corrupted. [04:33] Yeah.

[01:07] sirfred: Are the linux-header files something like what you want? [01:08] potato_head: What do you mean? [01:08] KING^^^, they have an ftp site where you can get all of the codecs to dump into a codecs dir that you tell mplayer where it is during ./configure [01:08] potato_head: The linux-headers are part of the kernel-source, aren't they? [01:08] KING^^^, took me all of 10 minutes to get mplayer up and going. [01:08] lol [01:09] KING^^^, and yes i have the real, quicktime and m$ codecs going. I can also use mplayer on my fb [01:09] potato_head: But the kernel sources are not patched, for example, my EXTRAVERSION is "" in the Makefile. [01:09] its possible to install mplayer (and totem or totem-xine) from Ubuntu universe including all the win32-codecs. Thats a very easy way to get a movieplayer that plays most movies. No need to fiddle with anything [01:09] KING^^^, the only thing i didn't do was configure it to have gui [01:09] but what i am going to do now ? because i have downloaded a lot of things last night , it took me 30 min or more ... and i want to continue [01:09] kent, but totem doesnt' play wmv's [01:10] yet. [01:10] scoon, even if you have the win32codecs that mplayer uses? [01:10] KING^^^, well in an effort to not waste your bandwidth, why don't you try google ? [01:10] but it was on ubuntu site [01:10] sirfred: oh okay. [01:10] kent, nope, not even. [01:10] KING^^^: Look in your history [01:10] scoon, i can watch wmv's with totem-xine from Ubuntu. Doing it right now just to check :) [01:10] can't find it [01:11] KING^^^, is this it: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=94&highlight=mplayer [01:12] kent, well i used totem-gstreamer. [01:12] I'm downloading linux-patch-debian-2.6.8.1 [01:12] KING^^^: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&q=mplayer+site%3Aubuntulinux.org&btnG=Search === will [~will@1-1-7-19a.ars.sth.bostream.se] has joined #ubuntu [01:12] Perhaps that are the patches for the ubuntu kernel? [01:12] kent, i also like to have mplayer around cuz when i rip dvd's i use mplayer to check the iso b4 i burn it. [01:12] hey but that is just me. [01:12] We have kernel-patch-debian-2.6.8 and linux-patch-debian-2.6.8.1 [01:12] What is the difference ? === andy_ is now known as beezly [01:13] sirfred, well they are 2 different kernels. there was a 2.6.8 kernel and a 2.6.8.1 kernel. === superted [~superted@213.167.101.222] has joined #ubuntu [01:14] scoon: But why one of them is linux-patch-debian and the other one kernel-patch-debian ? [01:15] sirfred, i don't know. I am just letting you know that they are 2 diff kernels. [01:15] kernel-patch-debian is the one we imported automatically from Debian. It's in universe. [01:15] maybe post a ? in the forums. [01:15] linux-* are our own kernels, in main. [01:16] Kamion: Oh, thanks. [01:16] Kamion: So, what do I need to build the ubuntu kernel? [01:16] linux-source-2.6.8.1 [01:16] the source package [01:16] Kamion: linux-tree ? [01:16] 'apt-get source linux-source-2.6.8.1' [01:17] Kamion: OK. What's next? [01:17] sirfred: No your right. === scoon [~scoon@dsl092-234-243.phl1.dsl.speakeasy.net] has joined #ubuntu [01:17] I'm afraid I don't have time to walk you through it all, but that gives you the tree in the current directory, and dpkg-buildpackage (or debuild, or whatever) builds it [01:17] (once you cd into the directory you get) [01:17] Kamion: So, the patches are yet applied? [01:17] Kamion: I know how to build a debian kernel. [01:17] they're in debian/patches/, not applies [01:17] sirfred: kernel-tree, is the ubuntu kernel preconfigured, if you build it in theory you get the same thing you have, kernel source is the sources packaged from kernel.org [01:17] applied [01:17] Kamion: My only doubt is about the patches. [01:18] dpkg-buildpackage will apply them though [01:18] wow. i would like to say that ubuntu is the best linux i have ran in 6 years. [01:18] Debian kernels are a bit different, because they have kernel-source and kernel-image source packages, so there are two steps [01:18] Kamion, melazyboy : Thanks. [01:18] we decided to do the whole thing in a single source package [01:18] simplifies maintenance [01:18] everyday i am just happy that i know this box will just be working away just fine. === IvyCQuaff [~Sir@200-171-144-228.dsl.telesp.net.br] has joined #ubuntu [01:21] BTW, I've found an extrange effect the last days in Hoary [01:21] When the machine is shutting down, there are some messages about a missing /proc/modules [01:21] Well, it was only at shutting down, but today I was testing a different wireless modules. [01:21] And when I typed /etc/init.d/pcmcia stop [01:21] there's something wrong with some wireless drivers; various people have reported filesystems getting unmounted [01:21] I don't think it's been tracked down yet [01:22] some Canonical people are seeing it though, so it should be trackable [01:22] Suddenly there were nothing in /proc and /export but mount said that they were mounted.

[01:26] how has hoary been treating people, coming from gentoo i have been fighting off the "upgrade" bug [01:27] scoon, riddled with bugs :( [01:28] no problems here :) [01:28] Hikaru79, thanks. then i will try and wait it out. but the withdraw man. it hurts. [01:29] you see, I used to be an emerge addict [01:29] scoon, then again, I've only been using Linux for about 2-3 months; perhaps it's just my lack of experience. You might be luckier ;) [01:29] it was ruining my life, and my computer. I spent more time compiling and emerging. [01:29] 'emerge'? [01:30] it got to be a real problem.

[01:31] potato_head, xactly. before i ran into the "optomizing myself to death" syndrome. [01:31] Hikaru79, i don't think until march-ish [01:31] x_x oh... [01:31] Hikaru79, well, what do i really need? [01:32] my java works.

In theory, Ubu can only get 6 months 'out-of-date' before Hoary is released -- this is a good balance between 'bleeding-edge' and 'stable' IMO :-) [01:32] and this version of xfree is as good as xorg [01:33] Xenguy, but this is WAY more on the stable side. i love it. [01:33] with gentoo i was constantly checking out cvs code. [01:33] the "bleeding edge" was bleeding me to death. [01:33] scoon: yes, Debian has a reputation for being stable [01:33] LOL [01:34] Hikaru79: the beatrix iso seems to have burnt okay. [01:34] as i said before, i was an emerge addict. it almost ruined my life. [01:34] but i am on the mends. [01:34] ubuntu has really helped me there.

[04:56] liberion: why are you looking for the .deb directly? use synaptic [04:56] dsr, I have tried that too [04:56] dsr: You need the -dev version of all of those packages [04:57] liberion: you want linux-headers-2.6-386_* [04:57] I don't know why that package: flashplayer-mozilla could not be found [04:57] wood1: did you add the extra repositories?

I suspect they're Red Hat extensions or something [05:00] tritium: no, sorry [05:00] liberion: should be a good start anyway, but it depends on the driver [05:00] Kamion: um, the Ubuntu port is called 'amd64' [05:00] Kamion: Red Hat calls it x86_64 [05:00] Kamion, no problem, that's just what kept me out of trouble in debian unstable/experimental [05:00] clee: uh-huh, but at a kernel/toolchain level it's still x86_64 [05:01] clee: we don't munge the toolchain at that kind of level [05:01] Kamion: right. but we don't define any AMD64 stuff. [05:01] where we == Red Hat.

I assumed you asked that because RH had them! [05:01] Kamion: No, I'm asking it because the fd.o xserver uses them and I had to add a check for __x86_64__ instead, and you guys call it AMD64, and not x86_65 [05:01] er, x86_64 === freddy__ [~gentoo@213.237.93.250.adsl.hc.worldonline.dk] has joined #ubuntu [05:02] clee: no, we call the dpkg-level architecture amd64 [05:02] === community council meeting in #ubuntu-meeting === [05:02] clee: dpkg architecture != kernel/toolchain architecture [05:02] Kamion: ok, then.

[05:10] liberion: happens with certain changes to the kernel that affect how modules interact with it [05:10] liberion: linux-headers-2.6.8.1-3-386 contains some extra stuff specific to the -386 kernel; linux-headers-2.6.8.1-3 is the generic part that applies to all the kernels [05:10] Kamion: ok so abi is application binary interface correct??

Rhythmbox refused to scan my music directories. It would just say that it had started, and then sit there for days. [11:23] (that's the reason why I use rhythmbox) [11:23] loool [11:23] nuopus: No, apt-getting it now, though. [11:23] geppy: gstreamer bug; it chokes on .jpgs [11:23] BEEP is what I use now. [11:23] that's a little problem with utf-8 I think [11:24] geppy: it is basically a gtk2 build of xmm [11:24] crimsun: Thanks; I'll see if I'd dropped any in there. [11:24] xmms [11:24] if you like xmms you will love beep in gnome 2.8 [11:24] so it will use all your themes and stuff [11:24] nuopus: Yeah, I'd heard about it; but the only problems that I have with xmms involve the buggy alsa plugin. [11:25] nuopus: heh. I'm looking into _writing_ a sound application, actually. I like the idea of rhythmbox, but there are a lot of problems with it. [11:25] ahhh im not sure how its built by default .. but you can choose eds at compile time [11:25] that has been fixed in hoary; the xmms build (10.4) from sid has been merged into hoary and includes the alsa unpause fix from xmms cvs === remi` [~remi@carnot-1-81-57-12-51.fbx.proxad.net] has left #ubuntu ["chuis] [11:25] crimsun: ALSA doesn't stutter anymore on XMMS in Hoary?

I might give jack a try. [11:28] geppy: try this: change "default" to "plughw:0" (and stop any other alsa apps), then play a sound file [11:29] hob1: You can open XMMS with the command 'xmms' on the command line. You have to log out and log back in for it to appear in the applications menu. If you want sound files to open by default in XMMS, then, yes, you do have to put it in the menu. It's a straightforward process; just tell it to use 'xmms'. [11:29] alright, thanks. [11:29] crimsun: That _does_ fix the problems, but that leaves me with only xmms for sound. =/ [11:30] hmmmm have you tried IRC in this new gaim 1.1.0?

[11:39] geppy: slave.pcm "hw:0" makes more sense [11:39] geppy: if you want, you can check /proc/asound/devices for the true device,subdevice combinations- [11:39] crimsun: thanks === burner [~burner@64.207.51.233] has joined #ubuntu [11:41] crimsun: There are two captures, two playbacks (and the ctl and the timer); is this because there are ports on the front of my case, and on the back of the motherboard? [11:41] hahah [11:41] bob2: I take that as a no? =) [11:42] oh, 'twas laughing at falco [11:42] er, fabbione [11:42] bob2: haha, alright === lev [~lev@dhcp024-209-240-238.cinci.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu [11:45] hey last night i got hoary, and now i cant my screen resoluton, it is stuck at 480x600 === raja [~raja@d226-23-142.home.cgocable.net] has joined #ubuntu [11:46] lev: Try editing your vi /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 [11:46] erm, without the 'vi' === jcole [~jcole@cupwebproxy2.core.hp.com] has joined #ubuntu === mdz [~mdz@213.151.107.243] has joined #ubuntu === Pointwood [~Pointwood@212.242.222.232] has joined #ubuntu === lamont_r [~lamont@213.151.107.243] has joined #ubuntu [11:47] about the dhcp setting: it looks like the problem is *before* the dhcp configuration!!! "dhcpd3 eth0" gives me "No subnet declaration for eth0 (0.0.0.0) .... Not configured to listen on any interfaces!" [11:48] what do i do? [11:48] find your default screen resolution settings === haikumore [~hmore@210.Red-213-96-130.pooles.rima-tde.net] has joined #ubuntu === nuopus [~nuopus@12.105.190.5] has left #ubuntu [] [11:49] still tho, i had the same problem.. i cant get my resolution over 1024x768 [11:49] that file is empty [11:49] /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 ? [11:49] yea.. it is empty [11:50] i did sudo gedit /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 [11:50] it should contain your XF86Config [11:50] There is nothing there. [11:50] open the /etc/X11/ dir, and see whats inside [11:50] lev: Perhaps try taking the '-4' off. [11:50] ls -la [11:50] elns [11:51] nope... [11:51] what does that dir contain then?

[11:53] martxel: 'sudo apt-get install xmms' [11:53] martxel: That is, assuming that you don't want to use totem, because it pretty much sucks. [11:53] jono: I don't know anyone that has gotten the driver to work with _anything_. === CerBerO [~CerBerO@CM128-inde0-47-138.cm.vtr.net] has joined #ubuntu [11:54] nope [11:54] geppy, heh [11:54] nothing there.

[11:56] it doesnt start [11:56] You're going to have to install it. [11:56] i have it [11:56] installed [11:56] martxel: Could you read your private messages? [11:56] martxel: The mplayer in multiverse is no good. === rjek [~rjek@haddenham.pepperfish.net] has joined #ubuntu [11:56] Hi guys. [11:56] Hi again [11:57] Who wants to help me with an audio problem on hoary? :) [11:57] rjek, whats the problem [11:57] rjek: just ask the question [11:57] rjek just ask the question === IvyCQHome [~Sir@c9063275.virtua.com.br] has joined #ubuntu === darksatanic [~hugo@81-5-136-19.dsl.eclipse.net.uk] has joined #ubuntu [11:57] OK. Both RhythmBox and Totem utterly suck for my purposes. === osiris_22 [~osiris@dhcp065-024-111-010.columbus.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu [11:58] hehe [11:58] XMMS has ceased to work since upgrading from Warty to Hoary. [11:58] what are your purposes [11:58] what are you trying to do [11:58] (as has SoX's 'play' and mpg321) [11:58] does anyone here use a netgear MA111 for wireless connection? [11:58] is xmms freezing by any chance when trying to play rjek === candyman [~candyman@gamma.sinetgy.com] has joined #ubuntu [11:58] Currently, I've got myself into the pickle that Totem crashed. And now it refuses to start again [11:58] rjek, disable the esd sound server ;) or configure xmms to use it [11:58] gen: No, it says it can't open the sound card, and you get "alsa_setup(): Failed to open pcm device (hw:0,0): Device or resource busy" on the terminal. [11:58] rjek: the reason they are not working is likely because it's using esd [11:59] try'killall esd' rjek [11:59] if you killall esd [11:59] hey: I just installed my ubuntu and an error pops up when trying to listen to mp3 files: otem no pudo reproducir file:///home/candyman/Desktop/stryper-winter_wonderland.mp3. [11:59] Failed to open; reason unknown [11:59] that will make them work [11:59] but if you run 'mplayer -ao esd foo.mp3' [11:59] OK. What about Totem not wanting to start again? [11:59] that will work [11:59] translation: can't open file [11:59] rjek, is it totem-xine by any chance [11:59] Christ almighty, why on earth are they using esd? [11:59] gen: Nope. [11:59] candyman: look in the wiki for RestrictedCodecs === EvaSDK [~eva@81.56.234.40] has joined #ubuntu [11:59] hi guys [11:59] candyman: mp3 support isn't standard in the install [11:59] because esd is gnome look&feel
