|---|---|---|
| broodster | do i need a program | 12:00 |
| Kamion | teuf: switch to alt-f2 around the middle of the installation (during the partitioning stage is good), switch to alt-f2, 'nano /var/lib/dpkg/info/grub-installer.postinst', put 'set -x' (without the quotes) on the second line, save and exit the editor, and then continue with the installation | 12:00 |
| broodster | to open binaries? | 12:00 |
| Kamion | broodster: type 'head -n 1 jdk-1_5_0_01-nb-4_0-bin-linux-1.bin' and show us the output, please | 12:00 |
| Kamion | teuf: then you should have a full trace of what grub-installer's doing in /var/log/syslog (I think, or it might be /var/log/messages) | 12:01 |
| Kamion | teuf: the code there is rather simple and doesn't talk to hardware; all I can think of is that it must be an infinite loop | 12:01 |
| broodster | | GNUUEv1^PTRh D | 12:01 |
| broodster | hQVhUSP[ Jt&BJUJ | 12:01 |

| Kamion | broodster: what happens when you type 'file jdk-1_5_0_01-nb-4_0-bin-linux-1.bin'? | 12:03 |
| broodster | it's java | 12:03 |
| broodster | runtime | 12:03 |

| Kamion | paste the output of 'file jdk-1_5_0_01-nb-4_0-bin-linux-1.bin' please | 12:03 |

| Kamion | Creap: yes, in hoary, it wasn't released when warty released and the release candidate gave us troubles | 12:04 |
| broodster | it's only for intel based architectures? | 12:05 |
| spikeb | Creap, there's a backport available | 12:05 |
| spikeb | Creap, check http://www.cuodan.net/~spike/sources.list for the details | 12:05 |
| Creap | ok tnx | 12:05 |
| Kamion | broodster: I can't remember if amd64 can run statically linked i386 binaries | 12:05 |
| Setite | is cd burning really as difficult as it seems to be from this chat room | 12:05 |
| spikeb | no | 12:06 |
| Kamion | it can run dynamically linked ones if you have the libraries there | 12:06 |
| Setite | i see so many people saying its not working | 12:06 |
| spikeb | works fine for me | 12:06 |
| Setite | staticly linked? | 12:06 |
| Setite | hey who is successfully using ubuntu64 with 32bit libs | 12:06 |
| Kamion | openoffice.org works for me on amd64, and that's a 32-bit application in warty | 12:06 |
| Setite | with 32bit chroot or that other method | 12:07 |
| Setite | really | 12:07 |
| Kamion | 32-bit chroots work perfectly | 12:07 |
| Setite | is that common | 12:07 |
| Setite | but did you do the thing to add them | 12:07 |
| Kamion | not really, OOo just isn't 64-bit clean at the moment so we punted to the 32-bit version | 12:07 |
| Kamion | which is a lot more work for us actually | 12:07 |
| broodster | okay well | 12:08 |
| Kamion | it's much easier if stuff builds and runs 64-bit | 12:08 |
| broodster | how do i run abinary? | 12:08 |
| Kamion | broodster: ./jre.bin | 12:08 |
| Setite | is there an automated process for rebuilding progs to use 64-bit libs | 12:08 |
| Kamion | or whatever | 12:08 |
| Kamion | Setite: same as building packages from source for any other system | 12:08 |
| Setite | remember i know nothing so im just throwing out random questions without knowledge of plausibility or possibility | 12:08 |
| broodster | wow | 12:08 |
| broodster | thanks =D | 12:08 |
| Kamion | if you don't have the source code, you're screwed. | 12:08 |
| Setite | but if i download 32-bit code and compile it... it will automatically use the 64-bit libs? successfully? | 12:09 |
| Kamion | broodster: I never thought that you wouldn't have tried that, since crimsun suggested it to you above | 12:09 |
| === Nominus [hanzo@2001:5c0:8fff:fffe:0:0:0:1175] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| Kamion | Setite: source code (at least halfway decent code) is not intrinsically 32-bit or otherwise, it's just source | 12:09 |
| === hazza96 [~harry@cust0531.qld01.dataco.com.au] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| Kamion | if it's badly written it might break in a 64-bit environment for one reason or another, in which case you should get the author to fix it | 12:10 |
| spikeb | i should compile muine | 12:10 |
| nevyn | Kamion: some * = (void *) someint | 12:10 |
| Kamion | nevyn: like I say, badly written code | 12:10 |
| broodster | oh | 12:10 |
| nevyn | Kamion: but nevertheless common. | 12:10 |
| broodster | i just spotted the amd64 version | 12:10 |
| broodster | lol | 12:10 |
| Kamion | nevyn: sure, didn't say it wasn't | 12:11 |
| Kamion | nevyn: that's independent of the fact that Setite is confused about what source code is ... :) | 12:11 |
| Kamion | yes, amd64 can run statically linked i386 executables, just tested | 12:11 |
| Setite | i know what it is mostly... im just not 100% familiar with what makes code 64-bit... | 12:12 |
| Kamion | nevyn: mind you, most of the Debian/Ubuntu archives are pretty clean of that sort of thing. | 12:12 |
| Setite | one more question for the 64-bit thing... well 2... is source generally available for most apps? | 12:12 |
| spikeb | the source is available for evry open source app | 12:13 |
| JDahl | Setite, it's just a C program like any other | 12:13 |
| Setite | hehe nvm.. 1 | 12:13 |
| nevyn | Kamion: true they are. bdale had a big push on portability a while ago. | 12:13 |
| Kamion | nevyn: and many others, yes | 12:13 |
| nevyn | and then ubuntu pushed it further. | 12:13 |
| Kamion | we haven't done very much in that field compared to what went before us | 12:13 |
| nevyn | when he was dpl it was one of his big deals | 12:13 |
| Kamion | we run build daemons and catch the odd bug | 12:13 |
| nevyn | yeah so are ubuntu using the standard buildd's? | 12:14 |
| nevyn | or custom ones? | 12:14 |
| Kamion | pretty much standard, some modifications | 12:14 |
| nevyn | and are you autobuilding on x86? | 12:14 |
| Kamion | most of which have been fed back to Ryan | 12:14 |
| daniels | (we're not using debian's actual buildd machines, obviously) | 12:14 |
| Kamion | sure | 12:14 |
| nevyn | that's one of my big bugbears with debian. | 12:14 |
| nevyn | that they don't autobuild on the maintainers arch | 12:14 |
| Kamion | it makes sense in the Debian world; you wouldn't get decent testing of uploaded packages otherwise | 12:15 |
| Kamion | at least with source+binary uploads you can hope that the *maintainer* tested the upload. | 12:15 |
| nevyn | Kamion: the problem is. that there are two packages I know of.. | 12:15 |
| Setite | bugbear? | 12:15 |
| nevyn | that are built agains the nvidia glx headers | 12:15 |

| killpanda | how has installed ubuntu on an oldworld powerpc ? :) | 12:16 |
| Kamion | nevyn: yes, regrettably that happens occasionally, but it's fairly rare and generally dwarfed by other problems | 12:16 |
| calc | otoh binary uploads mean that you have no idea if arch all packages can be built | 12:16 |
| Kamion | calc: sure we do, Daniel Schepler runs around with a private autobuilder and files bugs religiously | 12:16 |
| calc | Kamion: heh :) | 12:16 |

| daniels | adam_: if via82cxxx is in lsmod's output, then it's already getting loaded, so there's no point putting it in /etc/modules. | 01:22 |

| Kamion | no, you get to reboot | 01:24 |
| adam_ | I dont know | 01:24 |
| adam_ | Someone else said to just use modprobe and you dont have to reboot | 01:24 |
| Kamion | if it's a module load ordering problem then nothing short of a reboot is likely to be useful. | 01:24 |
| adam_ | Ok | 01:24 |
| Kamion | adam_: that would be if it weren't loaded already, which according to you it is | 01:24 |

| siulca | I meant a word processor with a gui | 02:18 |

| zenrox | siulca, use gedit | 02:18 |
| spikeb | hey that reminds me of a gnome question | 02:19 |
| huttan | siulca, change it to fglrx | 02:19 |
| huttan | save it | 02:19 |
| huttan | and restart X | 02:19 |
| spikeb | can you somehow set it up so double clicking on a read-only text file will open gedit with root priviledges? | 02:19 |
| siulca | how do I open with gEdit with writing permission? | 02:19 |
| spikeb | (with gksu) | 02:19 |

| Poprocks | I bought a radeon 9250, the latest which is supported by dri :)) | 03:12 |
| JDahl | siulca, do you know how to remove the ATI drivers and reinstall xfree drivers using synaptic? I think that would solve your problems | 03:12 |

| thegreatone2176 | kamion i can see that site in my broswer | 03:23 |
| Kamion | thegreatone2176: mostly you're paraphrasing error messages, which is really hard to deal with. It's much better to copy and paste error messages absolutely word-for-word (although don't paste more than a couple of lines at a time into IRC) | 03:23 |
| Kamion | 02:18 < thegreatone2176> it says all wheres its trying to go and no file or directory exists by that name | 03:23 |
| thegreatone2176 | ok i will | 03:24 |
| thegreatone2176 | one sec | 03:24 |
| Kamion | that's the beginning of something I could work with, but you're putting the error message into your own words rather than just quoting it, which makes life hard for us | 03:24 |
| Kamion | we're used to the exact text | 03:24 |

| occy | liquidboy to change the color depth, you need to edit /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 (I think it's -4) and change from 16 to 24bpp | 03:24 |
| liquidboy | ok | 03:24 |

| briareus | mcgood, actually it was lilubu here that has that error | 04:39 |
| rm6990 | I'm just wondering if anyone else has been experiencing complete system lockups with Ubuntu. Like Ctrl+alt+F2 won't work, nothing. I have to reboot with Ubuntu more often than I did with Windows | 04:39 |
| gpled | is their a package that will install flash? or do i have to do in by hand? | 04:39 |
| briareus | gpled, when i run firefox i can install it from within fluxbox running | 04:40 |
| rm6990 | gpled: download the latest firefox from mozilla.org, it does it automaticially after u come to a site that needs it | 04:40 |
| JDahl | rm6990, that's bad... I had problems with powersafe on a laptop running debian/unstable but nothing on ubuntu | 04:40 |
| gpled | using mozilla :( | 04:40 |
| siulca | it's not the volume level, I just checked. | 04:41 |
| gpled | but i like mozilla :) | 04:41 |
| rm6990 | it just started the last couple days | 04:41 |
| mcgood | gpled: firefox has tabbed browsing, it's cool | 04:41 |
| siulca | in rythmbox it doesn't play any music just keeps skipping to the next track. | 04:41 |
| rm6990 | gpled: download the latest mozilla from mozilla.org and then run the flash installer from macromedia.com mcgood: so does mozilla | 04:41 |
| JDahl | rm6990, does it happen while you use it, or could it be a problem with powersave/hibernation for you also? | 04:42 |
| rm6990 | while i use it, i was reading a website and had xmms open on a computer with a 1.8 GHz processor and 512 MB of RAM...and it locked up, it almost never happens when the computer is doing nothing or under heavy loads | 04:43 |
| JDahl | custom build kernel? | 04:43 |
| rm6990 | nope, 2.6.8.1-4-686...the updated security one from ubuntu | 04:44 |
| === dewey [~dewey@c-67-168-51-181.client.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| JDahl | rm6990, something else that cause troubles in ACPI on some chipsets, you could try to add acpi=off to the grub boot command | 04:45 |
| rm6990 | would that cause problems if it wasnt hibernating though, like i had almost continuously been moving the mouse at least once a minute for the last 20 minutes when it happened | 04:46 |
| liquidboy | thanks for the help guyes... | 04:46 |
| liquidboy | later. | 04:46 |
| briareus | rm6990, still, booting without the acpi might help | 04:47 |
| rm6990 | alright, ill try....will i have to add the option everytime i install a new kernel? | 04:47 |
| JDahl | yes | 04:47 |
| briareus | and had i seen the opportunity, i would have just now installed with noapic nolapic acpi=off | 04:47 |
| briareus | i was a little unsettled by the fact that the ubuntu install prompted me for nothing but a username and password, i usually install a rather thin operating system, this install just took me three hours | 04:48 |
| rm6990 | should i turn apm off too? | 04:50 |
| rm6990 | like apm=off | 04:50 |
| JDahl | I dont think so.. isnt apm a service? | 04:51 |
| JDahl | /etc/init.d/apmd | 04:51 |
| rm6990 | lol...never mind then | 04:51 |
| briareus | and Im a little surprised that the apps i am used to urpmi'ing arent even in the apt-get repositories, where can i find apt-get repositories that have more packages? | 04:51 |

| rm6990 | broodster: is there any files other than rpms available for ati? | 05:34 |
| spikeb | broodster, fglrx driver is already packaged for ubuntu, it's in the restricted repository | 05:34 |
| rm6990 | never mind, listen to spikeb | 05:34 |
| siulca | _|Imanewbie|_, ok | 05:34 |
| broodster | nope | 05:34 |
| broodster | all rpms | 05:35 |
| Ravenlock | A description of the problem: CD in drive, boots into the install, allows me to select my location and language, and then does the "scanning CDrom" part and freezes on a blue screen | 05:35 |
| siulca | _|Imanewbie|_, what for? | 05:35 |
| broodster | so spike | 05:35 |
| broodster | it's on the cd right? | 05:35 |
| Ravenlock | This seems similar to the behavior I got from a straight Debian install CD, which told me it couldn't read the image. | 05:35 |
| spikeb | broodster, http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/BinaryDriverHowto | 05:35 |
| _|Imanewbie|_ | there will be a list of urls and something like universe | 05:35 |
| spikeb | broodster, and yes it should be i believe | 05:35 |
| rm6990 | Ravenlock: what kind of cd drive do u have? | 05:36 |
| Ravenlock | It isn't a problem with my CD burner - I suspect I'm missing a tag on the boot that I need... for instance, to get into Knoppix I need to use nodma, but that has no effect here | 05:36 |
| Ravenlock | Whatever kind came in a Dell Latitude laptop about 5 years ago. Honestly, no clue. ;) | 05:36 |
| briareus | Ravenlock, try something like noapic, nolapic, acpi=off, or all of em | 05:36 |
| spikeb | heh | 05:36 |
| rm6990 | is there another way anybody to get the boot-time error messages, this isnt giving me the proper ones | 05:36 |
| spikeb | dmesg? | 05:36 |
| _|Imanewbie|_ | deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ warty universe multiverse | 05:37 |
| Ravenlock | briareus: will setting all the tags have any negative effects? | 05:37 |
| _|Imanewbie|_ | add multiverse like the example above | 05:37 |
| Ravenlock | I don't want to prevent anything from autodetecting, if it can | 05:37 |

| broodster | isnt amd more popular | 05:43 |
| thegreatone2176 | k brb after its installed | 05:43 |
| broodster | than intel | 05:43 |
| broodster | why they supporting intel? | 05:43 |
| Kamion | Ravenlock: we've disabled DMA on CD drives by default in Hoary; it was meant to be that way in Warty, but the change got dropped from the kernel by accident | 05:43 |
| Kamion | broodster: er, i386 has a massively greater install base than amd64 at the moment | 05:44 |
| thegreatone2176 | kamion is it in the packages or just google it? | 05:44 |
| Kamion | thegreatone2176: the build-essential package. | 05:44 |

| Kamion | you should be able to remove it | 05:54 |
| spikeb | rm6990, you can actually make a .deb package of your own kernel | 05:54 |
| crimsun | rm6990: you are free to use whatever you wish, but official support is limited to the subset of supported debs | 05:54 |

| zenrox | still that quilfies as a flood | 07:41 |

| nicedreams | oh | 07:43 |
| Lathiat2 | nicedreams: xinit is what it says, intializes X | 07:43 |
| crimsun | siimo: keep in mind that I already had Hoary running | 07:43 |
| nicedreams | how can i get it to do that so i can launch quake3 in it | 07:43 |
| Lathiat2 | nicedreams: you'ld have to make a .xsession that starts a terminal | 07:43 |
| Lathiat2 | nicedreams: but then your normal session will get overrun by that | 07:43 |
| Lathiat2 | nicedreams: could just do startx -- :1 & and then DISPLAY=:1 xterm | 07:43 |
| siimo | crimsun, i tried a clean install but it failed while installing python2.4 | 07:43 |

| nicedreams | how do i find out how much ram a program is taking? like i want to see how much ram fluxbox is using. | 07:48 |

| Prasatko | hello. I have upgraded from debian kernel 2.2 to ubuntu 2.6.9-1-386, but now my mouse does not work in Xfree86. i tried to change XF86Config. but without any suucess (i tried /dev/mouse /dev/input/mice /dev/mouse0 and so on) I have one ps2 mouse and one serial connected to com1. does anyone know what to do? | 09:27 |
| LinuxNIT | i am ue to using straight debian whre the user and su are completely separate. i put ubuntu on my dads laptop | 09:28 |
| crimsun | Prasatko: search the debian-x mailing list archive for the psaux input option for 2.6 kernels. | 09:28 |
| crimsun | LinuxNIT: Ubuntu adopts the much saner use of sudo(8) by default. | 09:29 |
| LinuxNIT | so is ubuntu just as secure from things like viruses, trojans etc as | 09:29 |

| Mestapheles | anyone install onto a 800mhz iMac? | 09:33 |
| LinuxNIT | ok i see it but it dosent make sense to me ( i am still very new to linux) | 09:33 |
| Lathiat | LinuxNIT: is it a removable device | 09:34 |
| Lathiat | LinuxNIT: or a device in yoru computer | 09:34 |
| LinuxNIT | its a partition on hda | 09:34 |
| LinuxNIT | it is hda1 | 09:34 |
| LinuxNIT | or should i say /dev/hda1 | 09:35 |
| Lathiat | LinuxNIT: become root, edit the /etc/fstab file | 09:35 |

| Lathiat | LinuxNIT: look for the line starting /dev/hda1, theres a list of options (probably says defaults right now) | 09:35 |
| Lathiat | put ,user after the defaults bit (no space) | 09:35 |
| LinuxNIT | ok i have the fstab open | 09:35 |
| LinuxNIT | it dosent say default cause i am the one who put the line there | 09:36 |
| Lathiat | ah ok | 09:36 |
| Lathiat | whats it say atm? | 09:36 |
| LinuxNIT | /dev/hda1 /C: vfat rw,user,auto 0 0 | 09:36 |
| Lathiat | ah take the auto off | 09:36 |
| Lathiat | then umount /C: in the shell | 09:36 |
| Lathiat | then go into computer and double click it | 09:36 |
| Lathiat | it mounts it as your user, and will work fine then | 09:36 |
| LinuxNIT | ah i see | 09:37 |
| LinuxNIT | thanks man | 09:37 |
| Lathiat | if you mount it as root, then root 'owns' it | 09:37 |
| Lathiat | and when you logout/login again | 09:37 |
| Lathiat | first time you access that it'l mount it | 09:37 |
| LinuxNIT | so can it get mounted automatically for the user or not | 09:38 |
| Lathiat | dont even have to do it from computer, if you open it in any proper GNOME app with the file selecter and just select the option in the left hand list of places | 09:38 |
| Lathiat | LinuxNIT: well you could add a startup command to mount /C: | 09:38 |
| Lathiat | you can also take out user and put ,uid=1000,auto | 09:38 |
| Lathiat | and it'l automount to your user | 09:38 |

| LinuxNIT | trying to make it as simple for my dad | 09:39 |
| Lathiat | well if he just double clicks on it in computer, it mounts it automagically anyway | 09:40 |
| Lathiat | or in any application wit a gnome file selector | 09:40 |
| Lathiat | which is most of them now | 09:40 |

| Lathiat | no problems | 09:40 |
| Lathiat | anytime for someone who appreciates it :) | 09:40 |
| === h-t is now known as housetier | ||
| LinuxNIT | like this for the user,uid=1000,rw? | 09:41 |
| LinuxNIT | /dev/hda1 /C: vfat user,uid=1000,rw 0 0 | 09:41 |
| Lathiat | should do the trick | 09:42 |
| LinuxNIT | cool | 09:42 |
| LinuxNIT | can you tell me where you can add programs to the applicatinos menu? | 09:43 |
| spikeb | LinuxNIT, you can do it via a right click - go to the submenu you want and right click | 09:43 |
| spikeb | there's an entry | 09:43 |
| LinuxNIT | ok cool so simple you'd think i would have figured it out | 09:44 |
| LinuxNIT | i guess i am just slow sometimes | 09:44 |
| spikeb | lol | 09:45 |
| spikeb | LinuxNIT, well, it's not obvious at first glance | 09:45 |
| spikeb | not like the right click menu is there all the time | 09:45 |
| LinuxNIT | true | 09:45 |
| spikeb | :) | 09:45 |
| LinuxNIT | is there a command that tells the menu to update itself | 09:45 |
| spikeb | it should do it automatically | 09:46 |
| LinuxNIT | ok | 09:46 |
| Lathiat | it should, it doesnt seem to on warty sometimes, might have to logout/login | 09:46 |
| spikeb | i usually wait a couple seconds | 09:46 |
| spikeb | then it does | 09:46 |
| LinuxNIT | does it not add all pragrams that you install to the menu? | 09:47 |
| spikeb | it adds some of them (mostly gnome apps) but not many compiled or unsupported apps | 09:47 |
| LinuxNIT | well i used apt-get to install several and only one showed up | 09:48 |
| spikeb | stupid apps | 09:48 |
| spikeb | or stupid menu, whichever | 09:48 |
| spikeb | heh | 09:48 |
| LinuxNIT | ok | 09:50 |
| === vIkSiT is now known as vIkSiT|brb | ||
| LinuxNIT | well i guess ill do it manually then | 09:50 |
| e-Jah | lu | 09:50 |
| spikeb | yeah, i hope more packages have entries in hoary. | 09:50 |
| LinuxNIT | another question about the menu | 09:51 |
| LinuxNIT | i can right click to ad a luancher in the bottom of the so called directories (for lack of knowing their true name) can i add a new so called directory | 09:52 |
| LinuxNIT | does that make sense? | 09:52 |
| Lathiat | no ;p | 09:52 |
| Lathiat | what do you mean directories | 09:53 |
| Lathiat | the panel? | 09:53 |
| spikeb | i know what you mean | 09:53 |
| spikeb | Lathiat, he wants to add submenus | 09:53 |
| LinuxNIT | yeah those | 09:53 |
| spikeb | LinuxNIT, im not sure, to be honest | 09:53 |
| Lathiat | so you want to create a new submenu in the menu? | 09:53 |
| LinuxNIT | exactly | 09:53 |
| Lathiat | ditto to spikeb then | 09:53 |
| LinuxNIT | ok well i thought id ask | 09:54 |
| spikeb | i think you might be able to, but i've no idea how | 09:54 |

| hartbrkr | cause with windows he gets it so full of spyware and crap that I have to reinstall everything every couple months or so | 10:42 |
| Lathiat | hartbrkr: yeh well linux is generally not vulnerable to spyware, adware, etc, so it should keep chugging for quite a while | 10:42 |

| hartbrkr | and what about a P2P filesharing app? i've tried gtk-gnutella on my computer, but it doesn't seem to run as well as bearshare or anything else for windows | 10:43 |
| hartbrkr | nevyn: what kind of mainainence are you talking about? like can I schedule it to do automatic maintainence? | 10:43 |
| Emanuelez | is there a way to create an iso from a cd having a progress bar too? dd is cool but i wanted something more eyecandy (gnome stuff possibly :P ) | 10:44 |

| Gaaruto | martxel, if your pb appear after an upgrade, wait, the pb will be resolv with an other upgrade | 11:43 |
| PsyDeViL | night spike | 11:43 |
| dud | crimsun, a liteon dvdrom located at /dev/hdc | 11:43 |
| dud | eject /dev/hdc ive tried btw | 11:43 |
| calc | dud: tried lsof | grep hdc ? | 11:43 |
| crimsun | dud: what does `lsof /dev/hdc' reveal? | 11:43 |
| dud | nothing at all | 11:43 |
| dud | tried that as well ;/ | 11:44 |
| Gaaruto | martxel, or try to explain the problem you have | 11:44 |
| calc | hmm it not showing in df is interesting as well | 11:44 |
| martxel | i get to the session start screen | 11:44 |
| martxel | I log perfectly | 11:44 |
| calc | crimsun: actually the lsof probably need to be to the path of where its mounted not the device | 11:44 |
| smo | dud: I'm not sure it helps, but I had the same problem (with a similar drive .. " LITE-ON DVDRW SOHW-1633S"). I'm not sure what "cured" it, but it disappeared after a few days (with reboots and apt-get'n in that time) | 11:44 |
| martxel | and it seems to charge everything, nautilus... | 11:44 |
| dud | ive had so many different cdroms and so many different linux distrobutions | 11:45 |
| martxel | but it doesnt | 11:45 |
| dud | and somehow i always manage to get in this situation | 11:45 |
| dud | again and again | 11:45 |
| PsyDeViL | im getting this upon ubuntu base system configuration. -> mm/memoty.c:110: bad pmd 00000020. | 11:45 |
| martxel | It doesnt charge the taskbars | 11:45 |
| Gaaruto | martxel, pv | 11:45 |
| PsyDeViL | -> mm/memory.c:110: bad pmd 00000020. | 11:45 |
| PsyDeViL | is it somthing to do with swap file ? | 11:46 |
| calc | dud: what was happening right before it stopped working? | 11:46 |
| dud | calc, nothing really, was just using it | 11:46 |
| calc | burning something, or just reading? | 11:46 |
| dud | it generally happens, when an application changes drive status | 11:46 |
| dud | prolly without "telling" gnome that it did | 11:46 |
| calc | well gnome definitely can get confused about the drive | 11:47 |
| dud | then it gets out of sync, and hell is loose | 11:47 |

| dud | and mount /dev/hdc gives the standard wrong fs, bad option or bad super block error | 11:48 |

| === mode/#ubuntu [-o fabbione] by fabbione | ||
| crimsun | dud: what seems to be the issue with it? | 11:53 |
| dud | so... apt-get, or dpkg rather wont install liblame0 or libmp3lame on hoary | 11:53 |
| === marsjays [~marsjays@as1-3-8.paa.hs.bonet.se] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| dud | liblame0 comes from multiverse, and libmp3lame from cerkinfo.be | 11:54 |
| === k40z [~k40zmotic@82.152.174.0] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| dud | the error has to do with the file usr/lib/libmp3lame.so.0.0.0 | 11:54 |
| dud | which both provides | 11:54 |
| calc | so don't install libmp3lame0 | 11:55 |
| dud | this is natural, as liblame0 provides the entire libmp3lame0 lib | 11:55 |
| dud | calc, ahhh... but there's the bug | 11:55 |
| crimsun | dud: both are unofficial packages, but I'd choose Christian's version. | 11:55 |
| dud | apt-get thinks it has to install both | 11:55 |
| calc | ah something on his site needs it | 11:55 |
| calc | and he provides both but split out(?) | 11:56 |
| crimsun | dud: what does the cerkinfo.be archive provide? | 11:56 |
| calc | but liblame0 is older version than in ubuntu(?) | 11:56 |
| calc | that would be one scenario where it would break, haven't looked into it though | 11:56 |
| dud | or, more accurately, it wont allow you to install just liblame0, because that it sees that usr/lib/libmp3lame.so.0.0.0 will conflict with the file in libmp3lame0 | 11:56 |
| dud | yet again, im not packet wizard, so i cant seem to make sense of it all | 11:57 |
| === yerga [~yerga@226.Red-80-39-2.pooles.rima-tde.net] has joined #ubuntu | ||

| === RuffianSoldier [~qs@dhcp024-209-106-036.woh.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| crimsun | libmp3lame0 should not exist | 11:57 |
| crimsun | whatever depends on its dev version needs to be recompiled against Christian's 'liblame-dev' | 11:58 |
| dud | crimsun, yeah... i think so as well, because if i removed cerkinfo.be, and tried to install mythtv, which lists liblame0 as depencencies... it worked | 11:58 |
| dud | well, it gave other errors than those related to liblame0, but thats beside the point ;) | 11:58 |
| dud | perhaps cerkinfo.be could remove the libmp3lame0 package? | 11:59 |
| dud | ehhh, i still cant reach apt.cerkinfo.be... | 12:00 |
| dud | talking about the devil and all | 12:00 |
| crimsun | whatever's in the cerkinfo.be archive that's linked against 'libmp3lame0/libmp3lame{0}-dev' needs to be recompiled against Christian Marillat's 'liblame0/liblame-dev' | 12:00 |
| crimsun | then libmp3lame* can go away | 12:01 |
| crimsun | it's not a dpkg issue | 12:01 |
| dud | crimsun, how would we(you?/canonical inc?/who??) go about that? | 12:01 |
| crimsun | it's an archive issue. | 12:01 |
| crimsun | whoever maintains cerkinfo.be needs to correct the package(s) | 12:01 |
| dud | not very convenient that i cant reach it... | 12:02 |
| dud | cant see who's the maintainer... | 12:02 |

| dud | i just did apt-get install k3b to get it working... | 12:06 |
| martxel | i also did it | 12:06 |
| martxel | and it works, but only when i execute it as root | 12:06 |
| crimsun | dud: here're the basics: most of the packages use Christian Marillat's scheme, which is liblame0 and liblame-dev. Therefore, the packages in cerkinfo.be need to be recompiled against liblame-dev (Build-Depends in debian/control needs to be updated), which means shlibs will pull in liblame0. Then the libmp3lame* packages can be removed from the cerkinfo.be archive. | 12:06 |
| dud | hmm, works for me... | 12:06 |
| martxel | i tried first gtoaster | 12:06 |
| martxel | but it doesnt detect my devices | 12:07 |
| Gaaruto | martxel, execute gksudo k3b | 12:07 |

| smo | it'd appear to be a "yes if you know what you're doing, and keep an eye on it". If you let things pull in dependencies, you can quickly end up in a mess tho (from experience) | 01:11 |

| duncanm | i'm having trouble installing Mono on ubuntu | 02:20 |
| duncanm | this is a hoary installation | 02:20 |
| duncanm | The following packages have unmet dependencies: | 02:20 |
| duncanm | mono: Depends: mono-jit (= 1.0.4-1) but 1.0.2-1 is to be installed or | 02:20 |

| duncanm | i just want to quickly setup a mono 1.0 installation to run a test | 02:22 |
| stvn | duncanm: mono is a metapackage, check its dependecies and install those | 02:22 |
| duncanm | how do i do that? | 02:22 |
| duncanm | i'm new to Debian/Ubuntu | 02:22 |

| olimar | Hi all just upgraded to hoary but my laptop creen is only showing in 640x480 screen resolution | 02:49 |
| Kamion | that's apt making the wrong decision; there's something that breaks with the new python and would have to be removed, so it's choosing to hold back a zillion packages rather than remove some | 02:49 |
| pmfp | Kamion: apt-get -f dist-upgrade? | 02:49 |
| Kamion | apt-get dist-upgrade is a crap UI for trying to diagnose this sort of thing, though | 02:49 |
| olimar | and I can't change the resolution to 1024!!! | 02:49 |
| Kamion | no, apt-get -f install | 02:49 |

| tsw | CaPS_: safer that way | 02:51 |
| Kamion | pmfp: let us know what if anything gets removed though, it's possible there's something still depending on python (<< 2.4) | 02:51 |

| albator | anyone can send me warty snd-cmipci.so ? | 04:10 |
| albator | nope | 04:10 |
| albator | classic sound output | 04:10 |
| zenwhen | philipss, \ | 04:10 |
| ogra | philipss: please do a full upgrade or stick with stable..... | 04:10 |
| zenwhen | #1, it is broken right now. You either run hoary or you dont run hoary's xorg. #2 Mixing the two isnt supported. | 04:11 |
| Kamion | occy: current daily confirmed broken, bug #4958 reopened again | 04:11 |
| philipss | i'd like to, but i heard that instable in ubuntu world is not like unstable in debian world :) | 04:11 |
| zenwhen | It works fine for most people. | 04:12 |
| zenwhen | The only people who talk about it ae the ones having issues. | 04:12 |
| ogra | philipss: thats why you should stick with stable....xorg looks exactly the same as xfree, you dont gain anything with the mix | 04:12 |
| albator | i dont have snd-cmipci anymore | 04:13 |
| philipss | well, maybe in fact ... i'll reinstall xserver-xfree86 | 04:13 |
| albator | deleted it | 04:13 |
| ogra | philipss: not sure if that works, but try it | 04:13 |
| ogra | albator: you deleted the module ? | 04:13 |
| albator | yep | 04:13 |

| paulproteus | It's more complete. | 04:18 |
| albator | dont understand anything at all this sound stuff now... :( | 04:18 |
| ogra | _guMuTpoB: some apps still require oss, so alsa emulates it | 04:18 |

| paulproteus | ogra: I suggest rm -rf-ing /lib/modules/his-kernel/ before doing reinstall. | 04:26 |

| ogra | Riddell: with ubuntu ? | 04:38 |
| GenghisKhan | im happy with kde 3.2 is the one i'm using | 04:38 |

| Riddell | it's when you want to downgrade that's the problem | 04:40 |
| ogra | Riddell: i dont talk about kde, its the lower level where you will get breakages.... the official advise from mdz and jdub is either do a full upgrade or stick with warty... if aou are unhappy with hoary, reinstall | 04:40 |

| ogra | drspin: why ? | 08:33 |
| Kamion | marjorie: in that case you still haven't fixed $LANG | 08:34 |
| Kamion | marjorie: you do not need to copy any language file anywhere | 08:34 |
| marjorie | how do i fix $LANG? | 08:35 |
| drspin | ogra: aye - because I couldn't stand ff0.97 (or somewhere therebouts) and I felt that I needed to support the Gaim 1.x release | 08:35 |
| Kamion | marjorie: look in /etc/environment and .bash* for anything that sets LANG | 08:35 |
| marjorie | echo $LANG = en_GB | 08:35 |
| Kamion | where's that? it's invalid syntax | 08:35 |

| mikedo | siretart, what is "-H" ??? | 11:02 |
| ogra | really safe is to run it from a rootshell, as the howto says | 11:02 |
| mjt | man sudo? | 11:02 |

| JDahl | my k3b works fine, and as I remember it I did not do what ogra recommend... maybe I manually changed properties on /dev/cdrom and /dev/dvd as a matter of old habit | 11:03 |
| === TopDog [~gaute@7.80-202-165.nextgentel.com] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| ogra | JDahl: so you tewked udev ? (else you cant change perms in /dev) ? | 11:04 |
| ogra | tweaked | 11:04 |
| mjt | ogra: why not? udev saves perms on quit and restores them on reboot... | 11:04 |
| JDahl | ogra, actually you're right.. I did just that | 11:05 |
| === dreamcatcher [~sidnei@dreamcatcher.base.supporter.pdpc] has left #ubuntu [] | ||
| JDahl | forgot that | 11:05 |
| ogra | mjt: since which version ? | 11:05 |
| mjt | and.. it isn't quite necessary to mess with perms.. there's `cdrom' group, and the /dev/cdrom device is rw for group | 11:06 |
| ogra | mjt: afaik it only uses udev.rules and friends | 11:06 |

| bassinboy | ogra: heh, why is su a command when i can 't use it? | 11:08 |
| Kamion | bassinboy: you can, just not in the default configuration | 11:08 |

| mjt | ogra: well, i'm not really sure about the permissions -- haven't looked at that for a long time. now once we're here i looked again -- no it does not restore perms on restart.. for some reason i thought i does. | 11:09 |

| === McThoro [~mike@adsl-4-202-19.mem.bellsouth.net] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| JDahl | I would use.. | 11:44 |

| JayeAeotiv | Does anyone else find ubuntu a bit choppy or laggy? | 11:44 |
| gjc | JDahl: but Sarge has no security updates, according to debian web site | 11:44 |
| hippie-boy | maybe if I installed the modules during boot up things would work | 11:45 |
| gjc | since sarge is 'testing', and it says there only 'stable' has security updates | 11:45 |
| hippie-boy | modprode doesn't stick around after reboot right | 11:46 |
