| Quest-Master | I wouldn't advise mplayer | 01:26 |
| Quest-Master | It broke my apt-get.. but it seems to work for everyone else | 01:27 |
| ACID|net | anyone here know much about ZoneEdit?? | 01:27 |
| scizzo | everything depends on what it should be used for | 01:27 |
| ACID|net | or DynDNS - how do they compare? | 01:27 |
| socomm | Quest-Master: You ever consider compiling mplayer manually? | 01:27 |
| scizzo | video or just listen to | 01:27 |
| billytwowilly | I have a GPL question. | 01:28 |
| scizzo | ACID|net: I use DynDNS | 01:28 |
| billytwowilly | anyone up on the GPL? | 01:28 |
| Quest-Master | socomm: Totem-Xine works fine for me | 01:28 |

| scizzo | ACID|net: it works | 01:29 |
| miffe | ACID|net, i use no-ip.org it works good | 01:29 |
| billytwowilly | is sveasoft's business model legal under the GPL? You pay 20 dollars for a year's worth of downloading firmware and support, but if you take advantage of your rights under the GPL and redistribute the source or the binaries you get cut off. | 01:29 |
| mjr | interesting question | 01:30 |

| Garoboldy | greetings everyone | 01:30 |
| billytwowilly | so essentially the GPL is being limited by this other licence deal. | 01:30 |
| Garoboldy | over from Beatrix. hoping someone has used terminal here | 01:30 |
| socomm | billytwowilly: Depends on the contract you sign with them. There's nothing in GPL about that. | 01:30 |
| Garoboldy | or at least knows some commands | 01:30 |
| |trey| | billytwowilly, that stimulation isn't technically, no... | 01:30 |
| Garoboldy | need to setup dhcp from terminal and not the gui | 01:30 |
| mjr | technically, they'd not be restricting your rights under the gpl, "merely" deciding on what they want to do with you depending on what you do... | 01:30 |
| GoldeNArX | ok.. you cant just download swat seperately. its built into samba | 01:31 |
| scizzo | Garoboldy: /etc/network/ | 01:31 |
| scizzo | Garoboldy: there is a bunch of files there | 01:31 |
| GoldeNArX | how do I know if the samba I have installed has swat built in? | 01:31 |
| Garoboldy | ok | 01:31 |
| billytwowilly | I'd argue it limits your rights under the GPL. If you practice your rights you lose the remainder of your 20 dollars worth of support and downloads. | 01:31 |
| Garoboldy | I see the files | 01:31 |
| scizzo | Garoboldy: /etc/network/interfaces is the place you should look at first | 01:32 |
| scizzo | Garoboldy: tell the interface to use the dhcp | 01:32 |
| nomasteryoda | GoldeNArX, type http://localhost:901 in konqueror | 01:32 |
| Garoboldy | it wont let me into interfaces | 01:32 |
| |trey| | nomasteryoda, in konq? haha. | 01:32 |
| GoldeNArX | konqueror? | 01:32 |
| scizzo | Garoboldy: use sudo | 01:33 |
| scizzo | Garoboldy: hold on a sec.....are we talking about ubuntu now? | 01:33 |
| |trey| | nomasteryoda, should state supported software for others... | 01:33 |
| scizzo | Garoboldy: in that case sudo vim /etc/network/interfaces | 01:33 |
| Garoboldy | no I am booted in beatrix gui, see I need to boot into text mode but cant figure out how..so I am trying to setup the network within terminal | 01:33 |
| nomasteryoda | oh yea, i set it up when i installed kde on hoary | 01:33 |
| nomasteryoda | lol | 01:33 |
| socomm | billytwowilly: What's to stop you from redistributing binaries and source after your contract is up? | 01:33 |
| billytwowilly | socomm, The fact that you won't ever be able to subscribe to sveasoft again. | 01:34 |
| GoldeNArX | nomasteryoda, konqueror?> | 01:34 |
| nomasteryoda | hehe | 01:34 |
| miffe | GoldeNArX, apt-get install swat, then uncomment it from /etc/inetd.conf and restart inetd | 01:34 |
| nomasteryoda | GoldeNArX, try | 01:34 |
| nomasteryoda | which swat | 01:34 |
| miffe | GoldeNArX, konqueror is the KDE webbrowser, firefox works just as good | 01:34 |
| Garoboldy | see its saying sudo vim command not found | 01:34 |
| nomasteryoda | yea | 01:34 |
| billytwowilly | I wish I had money. I'm pretty sure sveasoft is breaking the law. | 01:34 |
| billytwowilly | anyhoo, gotta go study. | 01:35 |
| nomasteryoda | billytwowilly, yea they are | 01:35 |
| scizzo | Garoboldy: well there is a big difference | 01:35 |
| nomasteryoda | but i found their firmware on net anyway | 01:35 |
| nomasteryoda | ;) | 01:35 |
| scizzo | Garoboldy: you are asking questions about beatrix in a ubuntu channel | 01:35 |
| GoldeNArX | miffe: couldnt find package swat | 01:35 |
| scizzo | Garoboldy: which means it is hard to know... | 01:35 |
| scizzo | Garoboldy: you need to be root to configure the network | 01:35 |
| Garoboldy | yeah I am in beatrix and have been for awhile..but the people there have no idea. | 01:36 |
| miffe | it's in universe | 01:36 |

| Garoboldy | great | 01:37 |
| Garoboldy | this is getting to be a crappy night | 01:38 |

| Garoboldy | alright. I appreciate the information though | 01:38 |
| Garoboldy | i will come back if I install Ubuntu and need help lol | 01:38 |
| GoldeNArX | socomm, 2 options dists / samba3 | 01:38 |

| dataw0lf | take some valiums, you'll be fine. | 02:21 |
| sayao | yeah, life is good | 02:21 |
| mojo | how to remove the Open With.. entries? I have 2 Helix Player entries, but I can't remove them, the Remove button is disabled | 02:21 |
| GotD0t | mojo: whats your major malfunction? | 02:21 |
| GotD0t | hmn | 02:21 |
| GotD0t | hmm* | 02:21 |
| dataw0lf | do you have two versions installed? | 02:21 |
| mojo | do u know what cfg file to change mimetype open program? | 02:21 |
| mojo | yes, one is bin type and other is debian | 02:22 |
| mojo | now I just removed bin version | 02:22 |
| mojo | but the Helix Player entry is still there, not deleted yet | 02:22 |
| mojo | ....tough question heh? | 02:23 |
| GotD0t | mojo: you could always search your computer for any file that contains the word Helix ;-) | 02:23 |
| GotD0t | mojo: that was sorta a joke, but it prob will work | 02:24 |
| mojo | please show me the command | 02:24 |
| crevette | mojo: you have the search tool | 02:24 |
| mojo | I don't know how to use 'grep' and ls | 02:24 |
| GotD0t | mojo: you can do it through the gnome search tool | 02:24 |
| mojo | oh | 02:24 |
| sayao | he probably doesnt want to edit a big xml file | 02:24 |
| mojo | let me try | 02:24 |
| mojo | excuse me | 02:25 |
| mojo | in search tool | 02:25 |
| GotD0t | mojo: note, if you have any windows parititions i highly recommend that you unmount them before searching | 02:25 |
| mojo | what do I type for the file name | 02:25 |
| sayao | mojo: right click the file, and then choose properties | 02:25 |
| crevette | mojo: nothing | 02:25 |
| sayao | mojo, then go to the "Open with" tab | 02:25 |
| mojo | do I use '*.*'? | 02:25 |
| mojo | oh | 02:25 |
| sayao | mojo, select helix player and click remove | 02:26 |
| mojo | sayao: I know what u mean, but my eintries can't be deleted, the Remove button is disabled | 02:26 |
| GotD0t | sayao: he said he cant click remove, which is understandable because i believe by default remove is disabled for entrys not manually added | 02:26 |
| crevette | sayao: He can't | 02:26 |
| sayao | humm | 02:26 |
| mojo | I think | 02:26 |
| mojo | in the next version | 02:26 |
| mojo | GNOME should resolve this issue | 02:27 |
| GotD0t | sayao: like i have two xmms entries for opening mp3 files, one i can remove (which i added to use a specific command) and the other i cant | 02:27 |
| sayao | maybe its a permission problem | 02:27 |
| sayao | try it with sudo nautilus | 02:27 |
| mojo | I'm still searching for files contains Helix word | 02:27 |
| mojo | sayao: I did, it won't butch | 02:27 |

| Quest-Master | __learner__: Right-click | 04:16 |

| Quest-Master | And change them there. | 04:16 |
| Quest-Master | Make sure you are the file owner though before doing so | 04:16 |
| __learner__ | the file is from root. I want to open it with my user. I can't change it that way because I'm not the owner, the owner is root. | 04:16 |
| __learner__ | I want to become owner | 04:16 |
| __learner__ | So I think I need to do it from the console, as root - the owner | 04:17 |

| BrittMan914 | and i have a router | 09:45 |
| lil_anthony | openssh installed now i think | 09:45 |
| lil_anthony | now to figure this thing out haha | 09:45 |
| cef | theantix: if it's a real hardware only bug, the wiki is best. if it's like a kernel or tool issue not detecting or mal-detecting hardware, then bugzilla | 09:45 |
| BrittMan914 | I want this computer to have the IP xxx.xxx.xxx.102 | 09:45 |
| cef | theantix: how'd you fix it? | 09:45 |
| farruinn | lil_anthony, you need openssh-server though | 09:45 |
| BrittMan914 | and it always changes | 09:45 |
| lil_anthony | yeah thats what i got | 09:45 |
| BrittMan914 | due to DHCP | 09:45 |
| lil_anthony | apt-get install openssh-server | 09:46 |
| farruinn | ok | 09:46 |

| === strestout1_ [~Martin@nc-65-41-169-148.dyn.sprint-hsd.net] has joined #ubuntu | ||

| padlef0t | killall -9 dhcpcd | 09:46 |
| padlef0t | :P | 09:46 |
| lil_anthony | now tell me if this is correct or not i thought all i do now is just go to cygwin and type ssh -l username@hostname | 09:46 |
| padlef0t | and configure your network manually.. | 09:46 |
| lil_anthony | and then connect and change the display? | 09:46 |
| padlef0t | BrittMan914: Gnome has a network app for this | 09:47 |
| BrittMan914 | yeah i know that | 09:47 |
| cef | theantix: well probably wiki is best, but if something can detect those toshi's that have this issue via software, also add it to bugzilla | 09:47 |
| BrittMan914 | probably I shoudl have done that | 09:47 |
| BrittMan914 | just wanted to do it all in txt mode | 09:47 |

| BrittMan914 | i erase dhcp and add what | 09:48 |
| BrittMan914 | along with my IP | 09:48 |
| cef | change "dhcp" to "static" | 09:49 |
| BrittMan914 | OH | 09:49 |
| farruinn | lil_anthony, if it's saying "do you want to connect anyway", just say yes | 09:49 |
| BrittMan914 | then use ifup eth1 xxx.xxx.xxx | 09:49 |
| BrittMan914 | .xxx | 09:49 |
| BrittMan914 | it's late sorry | 09:49 |
| cef | then on each subsequent line add 'address ip.ip.ip.ip' then 'netmask nn.nn.nn.nn' then 'gateway yy.yy.yy.yy' (replace as appropriate) | 09:50 |
| cef | one command per line | 09:50 |
| lil_anthony | cool its working | 09:50 |
| lil_anthony | i see my linux shell | 09:50 |
| lil_anthony | via cygwin | 09:50 |
| lil_anthony | tell me something though | 09:50 |
| cef | save, then in the shell run 'ifup eth0' and you should be right | 09:50 |
| lil_anthony | if lets say i add xhost + (your ip address) | 09:51 |
| lil_anthony | would i be able to login from that ip address with ssh? | 09:51 |

| spacey`ki | do i break things when i use a 2.4 kernel on ubuntu? | 10:24 |
| spacey`ki | udev or something? | 10:24 |
| scizzo | spacey`ki: why would you use a 2.4 kernel? | 10:25 |
| melazyboy | Is fglrx working with xorg yet? | 10:25 |
| sabdf1 | space`ki: some of the desktop stuff might not work | 10:25 |
| spacey`ki | its a server:D | 10:25 |
| sabdf1 | alsa, udev, hotplug-auto-mounter | 10:25 |
| spacey`ki | wanted to test ubuntu on server:) | 10:25 |
| spacey`ki | so it does not matter | 10:26 |
| sabdf1 | spacey`ki: should be no problem | 10:26 |
| spacey`ki | but i can stop udev from loading then i guess | 10:26 |
| sabdf1 | just type "custom" at the boot prompt when installing, install base package set, then cherry pick server apps using aptitude | 10:26 |
| === scizzo is running 2.6.x on a server | ||
| spacey`ki | sabdf1, i'm a step ahead of you =P | 10:26 |

| spacey`ki | but i'm narrowing down running services. especially if they don't work in 2.4 | 10:27 |
| sabdf1 | spacey`ki: that's ok, working with this crowd i'm used to that :-) | 10:27 |

| tux | well its a pcmcia , it works in other laptops | 12:40 |
| tux | under linux of course | 12:40 |
| tux | so ttyS0 | 12:40 |
| tux | hmm | 12:40 |
| tux | cardmgr and cardinfo shows the pcmcia found anyways | 12:41 |
| mjr | yes, it should be ttyS? then | 12:41 |
| mjr | it's possible there may be some I/O area and IRQ issues, but it's been a while | 12:42 |

| mjr | ok, so you mean running KDE apps under Gnome | 12:45 |
| mjr | not compiling | 12:45 |
| mjr | and yes, it's generally possible | 12:45 |
| mjr | luckily, they've agreed on some standards also, so you may be able to do stuff like drag'n'drop between kde and gnome apps also (ooh, aah! :) | 12:46 |
| arthur | tux, but compiling apps is possible too. i use gentoo too, and i just have k3b qt app, no fully kde, and k3b works from gnome | 12:46 |
| tux | nice | 12:46 |
| tux | does kde allow gnome to compile too i suppose | 12:46 |
| mjr | are you sure you know what "compile" means? | 12:47 |

| mjr | actually, let me comment on that it's perverse to program applications in C, and therefore C shouldn't be used for gtk application development either. One should use one of the saner language bindings like python ;) | 01:59 |
| Kamion | mojo: dude, you can do OO in C | 01:59 |
| Kamion | mojo: C just doesn't *force* OO | 02:00 |
| mjr | (and, of course, for the perverse C++ fan, there's gtkmm too) | 02:00 |
| mjr | yes; OO is a technique, which may or may not be spesifically supported by the language, but which may be utilized in non-supporting languages as well | 02:00 |
| arthur | mojo, man, i have just linux in my house, but i was to install xp, just to play with sim2 (i see one friend playing, and want's too!!).;... it's cedega installable by apt? | 02:00 |
| mjr | gtk uses the glib class/object model | 02:00 |
| mojo | arthur: no, it's not FREE | 02:01 |
| mojo | arthur: I will try Sim2 | 02:01 |
| mojo | arthur: if it works, I'll tell u | 02:01 |
| mjr | and yes, it is also quite perverse to program OO stuff with C, but that's what said bindings are there for ;) | 02:01 |
| arthur | mojo, ok! | 02:01 |

| Kamion | OO isn't necessarily fundamentally easier to program in either; that's a property of the code quality, not of the model; there're lots of very bad OO libraries out there | 02:02 |
| mjr | *shrug* may be true, but Glade + favourite editor is good enough ;) | 02:02 |

| tvon|x31 | Anyone getting an error dialog when logging into Hoary about "language en_US does not exist, using system default" (or similar)? | 04:54 |
| andreasvc | I will boot from network, that's why no swap | 04:54 |
| tvon|x31 | andreasvc: 512 will perform significantly better I think | 04:55 |
| andreasvc | since 512 is exactly twice as expensive as 256 I thought I shouldn't do it if it's not really necessary | 04:55 |
| tvon|x31 | 256 will run | 04:55 |

| thenuke | andreasvc: I have 512megs of ram, no programs opened by myself, and I had 2 megs of free ram :) I tried opening open office, and then I had ~200megs of free ram with that open office running :) | 05:04 |
| bob2 | thenuke: you know about disk cache, right? | 05:04 |

| wood1 | So any system programs which I can remove safely | 05:05 |
| bob2 | thenuke: right, but the reason 98% of ram was in use is because the kernel is storing files in memory in case you use them again | 05:05 |
| wood1 | I am very tight on this PC with Ubuntu | 05:05 |

| paradoxmo | it asked me if i wanted to see the pictures on it | 06:59 |
| Marska | No.. Its a week old install | 06:59 |
| Marska | But its not letting my modify the root password, so I can't change anything. | 07:00 |
| paradoxmo | it won't let you log in and change the password of root? | 07:00 |
| paradoxmo | can you use sudo? | 07:00 |
| Marska | Yes | 07:00 |
| paradoxmo | try sudo passwd | 07:00 |
| Marska | Sudo needs the root password | 07:00 |
| paradoxmo | no, sudo needs your user password | 07:00 |
| paradoxmo | i've been confused by that a lot too | 07:00 |
| redfan | paradoxmo: I'm there but it does not install, In my uncompressed directory I just have folders with 16x16, 192x192 and a index.theme | 07:00 |
| Marska | It doesn't take my user password | 07:00 |
| paradoxmo | hub: it works with pmount. i'll see if it works after i log back in | 07:01 |
| paradoxmo | redfan, try pointing it to the uncompressed archive | 07:01 |

| carthikSchool | If someone can tell me where apches-default is mentioned as the default root, it would be great | 07:02 |

| Marska | Straight Warty, and yes I can. | 07:03 |
| Marska | But when I try to change the root password, it defaults back to whatever it was. | 07:04 |
| redfan | paradoxmo: ok it installed and I have clicked go to theme folder it shows Authors, index.theme, readme and a tux1png.zip file | 07:04 |
| paradoxmo | hmm. perhaps you typed your root password wrong in the install? | 07:04 |
| Marska | It didn't ask for a root password | 07:04 |
| Marska | It only asked for the user information | 07:04 |
| Marska | for the account I created | 07:04 |
| paradoxmo | marska: odd | 07:04 |
| paradoxmo | that should be what it asks before the user info | 07:04 |
| paradoxmo | did you try blank password? | 07:05 |
| Marska | Yes | 07:05 |
| redfan | paradoxmo: i still do not see the theme in the icon page of themes | 07:05 |
| Marska | And I tried my user name, and various other pieces of user information | 07:05 |
| paradoxmo | redfan: did you try getting out of theme applet and going back in | 07:05 |
| paradoxmo | or try installing again, and not going to "go to theme folder" | 07:05 |
| Marska | And I can't modify my fstab file, so I can't mount my fat32 drives. | 07:06 |
| carthikSchool | paradoxmo, yes, I tried restarting apache2 after adding hte documentroot directive to apache2.conf and tried a hard refresh. it still is serving var/www/apache2-default/index.html.en | 07:06 |

| Marska | I can't rewrite any files on the disk through sudo | 07:11 |
| thenuke | try sudo -s also | 07:11 |
| Marska | It doesn't want to take the password I provide for it, and it never asked my for a password | 07:11 |

| Agrajag | just use sudo | 07:13 |
| paradoxmo | to modify your fstab you just do like sudo nano /etc/fstab | 07:13 |
| Agrajag | sudo -s if you want a root shell | 07:13 |

| wezzer_ | it's faster to write "sudo command_which_does_something" than su and then password and then the command | 07:14 |
| carthikSchool | paradoxmo, gotta go to edit /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/default and comment out a rewriterule, in case someone else has the same problem later. Thanks for your help | 07:14 |

| zAo^ | moquist, I thought so 2. It doesnt though :S | 07:17 |
| zAo^ | wezzer_, I installed the latest, didnt work :-S | 07:17 |
| wezzer_ | :/ | 07:17 |
| zAo^ | I even upgraded for that to Hoary.. | 07:18 |
| paradoxmo | zAo: did you try looking through the listings of gimp-whatever and seeing if anything looks promising? | 07:18 |
| zAo^ | yes paradoxmo | 07:18 |
| paradoxmo | it's not in gimp-nonfree? | 07:18 |
| wezzer_ | but dcraw works on warty too? | 07:18 |
| charlie_ | paradoxmo : the 2.6.8.3-k7 before i installed the 9 one i also tried new ddr but the faults don't go away, so i don't think it bad hardware.. | 07:18 |
| zAo^ | yes, it works, well: no errors. Still cant open RAW pictures | 07:19 |

| paradoxmo | so 2.6.8.3 worked, but 2.6.9.1 doesn't? | 07:19 |
| broseman | Any hint's to my EPP problem? dmesg | parport0 lists "parport0: PC-style at 0x378, irq 7 [PCSPP,TRISTATE] " Nothing about EPP... :-( | 07:20 |

| addNtoX | hi folks | 07:58 |
| Kinnison | I'm not certain. The Warty LiveCD is a bit of an oddity | 07:58 |
| wezzer_ | if I remember correct, network-thing should come before disk partition :) | 07:58 |
| lhf | I did get it running by manually running ifconfig. | 07:58 |
| Kinnison | Unfortunately the people I should ask are currently doing a keysigning party about 10 metres away :-) | 07:58 |
| addNtoX | does ubuntu use the dpkg packet managing system? | 07:58 |
| Kinnison | addNtoX: Yes | 07:58 |
| wezzer_ | yes | 07:58 |
| addNtoX | does ubuntu have xfree or xorg? | 07:58 |
| Kinnison | Warty has xfree 4.3 with a lot of backported driver work. Hoary will have (and does have) xorg | 07:59 |
| Simira | Kinnison :) | 07:59 |
| lhf | I tried Kurumin once it all it asked me was some data about the newtork and then it was up and runing and browsing away. | 07:59 |
| lhf | I was expecting something like that. | 07:59 |
| wezzer_ | this might be on some faq, but when does hoary come out? | 07:59 |
| Kinnison | wezzer_: I think mid april | 07:59 |
| addNtoX | is there a ftp or site where i can download ubuntu packets? i'm asking because i use debian sid and im searchin for a xorg .deb packet | 08:00 |
| Kinnison | lhf: Yeah; the warty livecd is very raw | 08:00 |
| Kinnison | addNtoX: Google for it; Someone has ported xorg to sid from ubuntu | 08:00 |

| francisco | with cfdisk you can toggle the flag | 08:12 |
| fastdeutscher | no, i cant get it to install, so i downloaded ubuntu | 08:13 |
| Agrajag | then you should install ubuntu | 08:13 |
| wezzer_ | newtolinux: which digicam? | 08:13 |

| newtolinux | sony cub ershot | 08:13 |
| newtolinux | *cybershot | 08:13 |
| Agrajag | minimum? 1 | 08:13 |
| Agrajag | you don't need more than 1 | 08:13 |
| francisco | you can create swap and / | 08:13 |
| wezzer_ | newtolinux: does the autoplug system work? | 08:14 |
| Agrajag | but it's a good idea to have a separate swap, and separate /home | 08:14 |
| newtolinux | i dunno, i plugged in the usb cabel | 08:14 |
| wezzer_ | okay, you have gthumb? | 08:14 |
| newtolinux | and my camera says usb normal mode | 08:14 |
| fastdeutscher | so then, /,swap, and /home....how big each? | 08:14 |
| newtolinux | dunno, ill try | 08:14 |
| fastdeutscher | out of 32 gig | 08:14 |
| Agrajag | how much ram do you have? | 08:14 |
| newtolinux | yup, ive got gthumb | 08:14 |
| fastdeutscher | what is recomended i guess is my question | 08:15 |
| fastdeutscher | im new to linux | 08:15 |
| fastdeutscher | very | 08:15 |
| fastdeutscher | painfully | 08:15 |
| Agrajag | fastdeutscher: how much ram do you have? | 08:15 |
| newtolinux | a / and a swap partition | 08:15 |
| fastdeutscher | 1024 | 08:15 |
| fastdeutscher | double for swap? | 08:15 |
| Agrajag | make it about 1.5 gig swap | 08:15 |
| newtolinux | no | 08:15 |
| Agrajag | you could | 08:15 |
| Agrajag | 1.5 to 2 | 08:15 |

| newtolinux | it depends if you already partitioned | 08:16 |

| |QuaD- | thully: you sure that isn't dependent on your setup? | 09:42 |
| ctd | err, GNOME Server? | 09:42 |
| thully | yes - Gnome server | 09:42 |
| |QuaD- | thully: hoary is unstable.... so lots is broken | 09:42 |
| |QuaD- | thully: there is no such thing | 09:42 |
| thully | GNOME sound server | 09:42 |
| ctd | ah | 09:43 |
| |QuaD- | o | 09:43 |
| ctd | thully: You can disable it. | 09:43 |
| thully | yes - but that isn't the desirable solution | 09:43 |
| thully | I lose all system event sounds that way | 09:43 |
| thully | Warty's sound server was fine | 09:43 |
| ctd | thully: In this case, for you it's the only way. | 09:43 |
| thully | why? | 09:43 |
| |QuaD- | thully: you using hoary? | 09:43 |
| thully | yes | 09:44 |
| |QuaD- | then you should expect things like this | 09:44 |
| ctd | If you want sound output from anything that doesn't go through esd.. you'll need to kill esd. | 09:44 |

| |QuaD- | CraHan_: heeh... i have no idea what is going on with that :( i think they are fubarred :) | 09:44 |
| thully | I expect this type of thing to happen - but I do want to say that 1)this didn't occur in Warty w/sound server on and 2)nobody seems to care one bit about this bug, since the 3 programs I had trouble with are all third party apps | 09:45 |
| CraHan_ | I seriously hope it's a bug and not a sane default(tm) | 09:45 |
| |QuaD- | thully: you are right, we don't care about the bug on hoary | 09:45 |

| |QuaD- | thully: if you have these concerns and are asking these questions, don't you question why you are using this? | 09:46 |
| carthikSchool | jcoventry, what's vlc? | 09:46 |
| CraHan_ | hoary is dangerous ground atm :) | 09:47 |
| thully | using what - ubuntu or hoary in particular | 09:47 |
| |QuaD- | thully: hoary... and not warty | 09:47 |
| jcoventry | VLC is videolan multimedia player | 09:47 |

| jdz_ | mirak_: not easly. Don't go to hoary if you even think you might want to go back | 09:47 |
| carthikSchool | jcoventry when you installed it, what was the binary file called? | 09:47 |
| thully | I am less confused about the bugs than the fact that no people seem to really care about them - they aren't critical, but they still are bugs that should be dealt with | 09:48 |

| carthikSchool | jocoventry, did you install it using synaptic or what? | 09:48 |
| |QuaD- | thully: you are using a developmental system with unsupported applications, expect bugs and little response | 09:48 |
| jcoventry | synaptic, yes | 09:48 |

| |QuaD- | thully: you can also develop the solution | 09:49 |
| |QuaD- | thully: exactly | 09:49 |
| carthikSchool | jcoventry, go to synaptic, then and search for the program again. whatever name shows up is what you want to type in a command prompt | 09:49 |

| === lev [~lev@dhcp024-209-240-238.cinci.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu | ||

| carthikSchool | or click on information and see the installed files, in synaptic, for that package | 09:50 |
| jcoventry | its just called vlc | 09:50 |
| thully | Ubuntu really needs a way to report bugs like this - in universe and unsupported apps, in cases when free software is at fault | 09:50 |
| rick_ | Is there a burning app in Ubuntu or just command line/ | 09:50 |
| carthikSchool | jcoventry, alright then, try typing just $vlc | 09:50 |

| thully | I realize that these packages are unsupported - but it should at least matter a little to the developers if Flash, CrossOver office, and winmodem drivers have no sound - as this is common desktop software that the typical Ubuntu user DOES care about | 09:57 |
| carthikSchool | Rene_S, I use it because it is more customizable, and has kile, kdevelop, it takes less memory etc... | 09:57 |

| jcoventry | lol | 10:02 |

| thully | In short, I don't really care that it doesn't work now - that's not what matters to me. What does matter is that the developers don't care one bit about this and they don't even want a bug report. I realize that some issues may be with the closed-source software, but in this case - because it worked w/the fontserver on in warty but not in Hoary - almost certainly a change in open source software caused this problem. | 10:04 |
| |QuaD- | thully: when hoary is more stable, give them the report. you can't expect much from a closed source program though | 10:05 |

| |QuaD- | thully: no one is forcing you to use ubuntu. if you don't like the development model, there are many other distros outthere | 10:08 |
| carthikSchool | thully, you miss the point -- a bug report has to have details which help them troubleshoot - now most opensource "freaks" like yours truly dont use those systems/sw . so there is no merit in such bug reports, to put it one way | 10:08 |
| carthikSchool | magnuscanis, are you trying to get the kernel source? | 10:08 |
| thully | so - this isn't a distribution that puts the users first - it is a distribution that puts the purists first? | 10:08 |

| carthikSchool | magnuscanis, oh, I see. well, this is a binary distro, so the source is not always available... | 10:09 |
| |QuaD- | carthikSchool: the source isn't always available? it definitely should be | 10:09 |
| |QuaD- | according to gpl | 10:10 |
| carthikSchool | thully, that is a sophism. it's not who's put first. it's just the way things are... | 10:10 |
| |QuaD- | carthikSchool: i think he is trolling | 10:10 |
| magnuscanis | carthikSchool, I hadn't realised Ubuntu was a binary distro. I like it a lot anyway (well, so far - I've been using it one week) and I suppose I can get the sources elsewhere | 10:10 |
| carthikSchool | |QuaD- the source from which the binaries are compiled for ubuntu, for various packages, are not available in the repository | 10:10 |
| |QuaD- | carthikSchool: i didn't know that | 10:10 |
| |QuaD- | interesting | 10:10 |
| carthikSchool | magnuscanis, it works for me... :) | 10:10 |
| |QuaD- | i thouhgt you could dl any source | 10:11 |
| |QuaD- | that isn't non-free | 10:11 |
| thully | No - I am not trolling | 10:11 |
| saif | hello! it's the first time i use linux, installed ubuntu everything is running fine so far, can't figure out this whole pachagin and apt-get and stuff like that, can eny1 provide me with a good source for such stuff?! | 10:11 |
| carthikSchool | |QuaD- the kernel source is not available, for my kernel, but I can 'make' things that need the source using the headers... | 10:11 |
| thully | I am just expressing my views on an issue - and I thought Ubuntu was open to different viewpoints | 10:11 |
| carthikSchool | saif, try using synaptic for starters, and you will learn as you go along :) | 10:12 |
| |QuaD- | carthikSchool: kernel-source-2.6.8 - Linux kernel source for version 2.6.8 with Debian patches | 10:12 |
| |QuaD- | kernel-source-2.6.9 - Linux kernel source for version 2.6.9 with Debian patches | 10:12 |
| |QuaD- | thully: those views are noted. is there anything else we can help you with | 10:12 |
| mameluke | shiiit... i used apt-get dist-upgrade and now apt fills my hwole drive, saying that i have to run a programm i i wan't to leave the changes... does anybody know the name of the programm? i think it removes unnessesary things | 10:12 |
| carthikSchool | |QuaD-, mine's 2.6.8.1-3-686 :) | 10:12 |
| saif | :) | 10:12 |
| mameluke | hrm, my english is so bad | 10:12 |
| saif | what is synaptec?? the anti virus? | 10:13 |
| |QuaD- | carthikSchool: interesting... isn't that still the same source? | 10:13 |
| |QuaD- | just different build? | 10:13 |
| thully | I perfectly understand what an unstable version is, and I expect issues like this | 10:13 |
| |QuaD- | -686 is the build | 10:13 |
| magnuscanis | saif, synaptic is a nice GUI frontend to apt | 10:13 |
| |QuaD- | -3 i thought was build number | 10:13 |

| umarmung | olorin, depending on the theme it can be very simple | 11:03 |
| umarmung | olorin, you can "override" colors in ~/.gtkrc-2.0 without changing the theme | 11:03 |

| nuttymango | Oops! Should be not "from" but "on" my old pc. Error msg is "Installation cd-rom could not be mounted" I think cause there's no atapi driver on the wart cd. | 11:06 |
| nuttymango | Maybe I can make a boot floppy with the ATAPI drive? I'm thinking that ATAPI cd-roms are different from IDE cd-roms and not supported by the Warty installation cd. | 11:07 |
