| fLoW | no cuz then i'ld have to restart, and i wanna use my 5.1 in stead of my onboard | 12:00 |
|---|---|---|
| fLoW | but alsa is configured with the SB! live | 12:00 |
| Doomhammer | don't reboot, just unplug it and plug it back in | 12:00 |
| fLoW | aah | 12:00 |
| Doomhammer | into the onboard | 12:00 |
| fLoW | k i'll give that a shot | 12:00 |
| Doomhammer | if you still don't get any sound, make sure the volume is turned up and the speakers have power ;) | 12:00 |
| Doomhammer | other than that it's probobly a configuration issue | 12:01 |
| fLoW | well, its a config issue :p | 12:02 |
| Doomhammer | :P | 12:02 |
| Doomhammer | in that case, don't ask me -- i've never configured that kind of thing manually | 12:02 |
| Doomhammer | Ubuntu set up mine automatically :D | 12:02 |
| searcher` | same here | 12:02 |
| searcher` | worked out of the box | 12:02 |
| searcher` | so to speak | 12:02 |
| Doomhammer | so i just ran "apt-get install ssh" | 12:02 |
| Doomhammer | will the SSH daemon run every time i start up Ubuntu? | 12:03 |
| kebac | wtf... does user have to be in 'audio' group to hear any sound? :P | 12:03 |
| Fazer | isn't ssh installed by default? | 12:03 |
| mdke | kebac, yes | 12:03 |
| Doomhammer | kebac: yes | 12:03 |
| kebac | where's the point :PP | 12:03 |
| Doomhammer | Fazer: i'm not sure... if it wasn't, it is now :D | 12:03 |
| mdke | kebac, there is a good reason | 12:03 |
| Fazer | hehe | 12:03 |
| mdke | kebac, many administrators might not want users to hear sound | 12:03 |

| kebac | mdke: right... wouldnt it be as good to disable access to /dev/dsp for some groups and enable for some? | 12:04 |
| mdke | Doomhammer, you can probably use rc-update to add sshd to your boot startup | 12:04 |
| mdke | kebac, not as easy | 12:04 |
| Doomhammer | bash: rc-update: command not found | 12:05 |
| Doomhammer | already tried that ;) | 12:05 |
| kebac | is this audio group policy in every linux or just ubuntu? | 12:05 |
| mdke | as root? | 12:05 |
| mdke | kebac, i use gentoo and that uses the same policy | 12:05 |
| Doomhammer | yes as root | 12:05 |
| Doomhammer | but i believe it's already run automatically -- i'll test that theory later | 12:05 |
| kebac | mdke: ok | 12:05 |
| kebac | never heard of this kind of thing | 12:05 |
| Doomhammer | now, how do I statically set my IP rather than use DHCP? | 12:05 |
| mdke | Doomhammer, check the /etc/rc directories | 12:06 |
| Fazer | Damn, this song has gotten me hooked: Breaking Benjamin - So Cold | 12:06 |
| mdke | Doomhammer, they show your bootup scripts | 12:06 |
| mdke | Doomhammer, default runlevel is 2 | 12:06 |
| sjoerd | Doomhammer: did you install the ssh server ? | 12:07 |
| sjoerd | Doomhammer: by default only the client is installed iirc | 12:07 |

| scoon | dcarr, maybe. what seems to be the problem. | 01:26 |
| dcarr | The system doesn't seem to be seeing the soundcard at all. An attempt with 'modprobe sb' (which worked in Mdk 10.0) says "no such device) or somesuch. | 01:27 |
| dcarr | *device" | 01:27 |

| dcarr | "No packages found matching pcmcia-cs" | 01:34 |

| === mgotts [~mgotts@p508EFED6.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| crimsun | DirtDawg: on the whole, however, Debian's and Ubuntu's repositories have huge selections of software, and simple installation commands pull in dependencies transparently and install them when needed | 01:35 |
| jivera | DirtDawg: The main advantage of Debian is that the apt archive is mostly self contained; you make fewer ventures to rpmfind.net or similar. | 01:35 |
| linux_galore | DirtDawg: you should really use a package manager for either .deb or rpm it will reduce the hassles | 01:35 |
| crimsun | DirtDawg: same with package removal | 01:35 |
| DirtDawg | will normal Debs install on my ppc, or do I need to find ppc versions of the debs? | 01:35 |
| linux_galore | jivera: I never use rpmfind with Mandrake | 01:35 |
| jivera | DirtDawg: Ubuntu has their own versions of all the debian packages (AFAIK), but if you need external apt archives you'll probably have to find ppc specific ones. | 01:36 |
| DirtDawg | linux_galore: Having used only Mandrake and Yellow dog, I have yet to have a successfull install. But after playing with Ubuntu, I have high hopes | 01:36 |
| crimsun | DirtDawg: if the debs are binary (and thus arch-) specific, then you'll need ppc-specific versions -- which implies that yes, you will retrieve them from Ubuntu's repo. | 01:36 |

| techn9ne | does kde work well w/ ubuntu? | 02:35 |
| crimsun | techn9ne: certainly. | 02:35 |

| qazix | crimsun: feh, guess I'll have to figure out how kde does it then | 02:37 |

| BlacKnight| | anyone home? | 03:00 |
| BlacKnight| | crim? | 03:00 |
| BlacKnight| | ah well, let's see what you guys think about this: | 03:00 |
| BlacKnight| | usb plugnplay didn't work in linux after installing ubuntu | 03:00 |
| BlacKnight| | so i figured i'd do my usbing in windows. only to find out that windows usb pnp no longer works either | 03:00 |
| BlacKnight| | i figure it's because of grub... | 03:01 |
| BlacKnight| | would that be a safe assumption? | 03:01 |
| BlacKnight| | it all worked fine with lilo... should i try lilo? will apt-get install lilo work out of the box? | 03:01 |
| techn9ne | whats wrong w/ grub? | 03:02 |
| BlacKnight| | that's what i can't figure out | 03:02 |
| techn9ne | your usb plug n' play woudl have nothign to do w/ ubuntu.. its controlled by the bios | 03:03 |
| BlacKnight| | the only thing which COUOLD be affecting the usb is grub | 03:03 |
| BlacKnight| | because it affects usb in windows | 03:03 |
| BlacKnight| | which worked fine when lilo was bootloading | 03:03 |
| BlacKnight| | i havent changed any bios settings since installing ubuntu over mdk | 03:03 |
| techn9ne | that would be very strange but i dont know enough to say its impossible | 03:03 |
| BlacKnight| | the only boot-time change has been grub | 03:03 |
| techn9ne | umm prob. wanna remove grub before installing lilo apt-get remove grub then apt-get install lilo | 03:04 |

| robertj | and it's wherever your music is | 03:40 |
| robertj | there is no ~/My\ Music or ~/Audio | 03:40 |
| sasha1 | i just mounted a windows partition | 03:40 |
| bob2 | sasha1: whereveer you've put your music | 03:40 |
| sasha1 | and i don't know the path | 03:41 |
| bob2 | sasha1: then chose the path within the windows partition | 03:41 |
| robertj | so /Documents\ and\ Settings\username | 03:41 |
| bob2 | sasha1: how did you mount it if you don't know where it is? | 03:41 |
| sasha1 | and the window just says music... | 03:41 |
| sasha1 | instead of /home/sasha1 | 03:41 |
| robertj | or /Documents\ and\Settings\username\My\ Documents\My\ Music I think | 03:41 |
| sasha1 | i had to go into the mnt directory | 03:42 |

| TheSnowMan | help: i use x-chat and i'm wondering if i can save the channels i visit the most? | 03:45 |
| sasha1 | warty, i got off the site about a month ago, where can i check version? | 03:45 |
| swim | is there somewhere I can find out what packages/apps are available for ubuntu? | 03:46 |
| Agrajag | TheSnowMan: save? | 03:46 |
| Agrajag | You mean, log them, or just connect to them on startup? | 03:46 |
| zenrox_ | how do you fix the xp boot grub is the boot loader | 03:46 |
| bob2 | sasha1: wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats | 03:46 |
| bob2 | don't forget to write to your parliamentarian to complain about patents! | 03:46 |
| TheSnowMan | yes, connect to them at startup | 03:46 |
| bob2 | swim: you want a list of all 12 000 packages? | 03:46 |
| Agrajag | ok | 03:47 |
| zenrox_ | win xp gives a cant find some .dll | 03:47 |
| zenrox_ | if i slect win from grub | 03:47 |
| Agrajag | go to x-chat > server list... | 03:47 |
| bob2 | then you have a windows problem | 03:47 |
| julius_trop | the lame codec isn't open source anymore? | 03:47 |
| swim | bob2: do you say that because ubuntu uses debian repositories? | 03:47 |
| Agrajag | choose the network you want to set up, or add one | 03:47 |
| Agrajag | julius_trop: yes it is | 03:47 |
| Agrajag | mp3 itself is ont open | 03:47 |
| Managu | lame ain't a MP3 encoder. | 03:47 |
| bob2 | swim: no, because ubuntu iteself has 12 000 packages | 03:47 |
| julius_trop | lame will decode mp3 wont it or just compress | 03:48 |
| Agrajag | TheSnowMan: there should be an option, in edit mode, to add channels to connect to on connection | 03:48 |
| julius_trop | ah i see | 03:48 |
| Agrajag | julius_trop: yes, but what's your point? | 03:48 |
| bob2 | lame is an encoder | 03:48 |
| ArCHoNKoG | 12,000 packages | 03:48 |
| ArCHoNKoG | you for real | 03:48 |
| Agrajag | bob2: it's both | 03:48 |
| bob2 | it's LGPL, but mp3 is patent-encumbered | 03:48 |
| Managu | lame is the source code for an mp3 encoder/decoder | 03:48 |
| julius_trop | excuse me just thinking out loud | 03:48 |
| ArCHoNKoG | dam i use there distro and ididn't even know that | 03:48 |
| TheSnowMan | in edit mode? | 03:48 |
| sasha1 | bob2: thanks for the link but i am little confused, so i can listen to mp3s but i have to install some repository? | 03:48 |
| BugBear89 | bob2: apparently wlan0 doesn't exist, it says "no such device", it is listed in lspci | 03:48 |

| bob2 | lspci shows physical hardware, it has nothing to do with if the kernel supports it or not | 03:49 |
| swim | bob2: ah neat, so ubuntu uses its own repositories? bob2 than is it correct to assume that ubuntu can run kde/qt apps fine, just not kde itself? | 03:49 |

| bob2 | there have been a few test isos for the new development release, but they may or may not work | 03:52 |

| jivera | swim: You said it was 'normal' before loading nvidia-glx. | 05:36 |
| swim | no I didnt | 05:36 |
| swim | I havent even loaded the nvidia-glx | 05:36 |
| jivera | 22:34 < swim> jivera only booting in recovery mode, because without the nvidia drivers install if I do an alt+ctrl+backspace | 05:36 |
| swim | this is what I said: | 05:36 |
| jivera | I get a lined screen, (this is normal without having the nvidia-glxinstalled) (Im now booted recovery) | 05:36 |
| jivera | "this is noral without having the nvidia-glx installed" | 05:36 |
| jivera | normal | 05:37 |
| swim | I do not have them installed... the lined screen is normal without having nvidia-glx installed.... I know this from all of my previous distros | 05:37 |
| wolfsong | jivera, did you create the primary first? | 05:37 |
| swim | but the problem still is, that when ubuntu starts, I cannot see anything but a black screen | 05:38 |
| DjCyre|AFK | im new to Ubuntu and have taken a liking to it. I just want to know how I can set it up to use my Ati 9600xt | 05:38 |

| wolfsong | i want a backup partition on my second physical drive in case i format the first one | 05:46 |
| swim | im sitting here in recovery mode on irssi hoping to get some assistance... | 05:46 |
| wolfsong | how should the the backup partition be mounted | 05:46 |
| swim | in recovery mode you dont even get anymore consoles to try and look up anything | 05:46 |
| Managu | wolfsong: do you know the name of the partition? i.e. /dev/hdc4? | 05:47 |

| Managu | swim: new installation, or is it a new problem? | 05:47 |
| GoneBoB | DjCyre|AFK: I don't think so | 05:48 |

| DjCyre|AFK | ok, thanks again | 05:48 |
| swim | Managu: but Ive tried installing ubuntu months ago and same thing happened... so i just gave up and used another distro | 05:48 |
| Managu | swim: just an offhand question -- have you tried the ubuntu live cd? | 05:48 |
| Managu | wolfsong: how are you making the backup partition? | 05:48 |
| swim | Managu: no I havent | 05:48 |
| wolfsong | Managu, i'm using the partition tool in the setup | 05:49 |

| Managu | wolfsong: hrmm. Are you just installing now? | 05:49 |
| wolfsong | yes | 05:49 |
| wolfsong | i assume it's just /dev/hdb# | 05:50 |
| Managu | wolfsong: well, the install tool lets you mount partitions in the advanced mode, doesn't it? | 05:50 |
| swim | Managu: its probably using "nv" now, should I just change "nv" to "vesafb" ? | 05:51 |
| wolfsong | Managu, i'm not sure i follow. do you mean can i manually set them up? | 05:51 |
| Managu | swim: no, it would likely be more complex than that. Haven't tried it myself recently =/ | 05:51 |
| swim | alright Im going to try another channel | 05:52 |
| Managu | wolfsong: I don't suppose I understand your question. You're installing Ubuntu, probably on a different machine than IRCing. You're at the step where you're setting up partitions. The normal mode just sort of does it... and there's an advanced mode, no? | 05:52 |
| smooth-operator | does anyone know the command to instal a tar.gz file i downloaded? | 05:53 |

| nevyn | smooth-operator: pureftpD or pureftp? | 05:54 |

| smooth-operator | so apt-get has access to thousands of files out there? | 05:55 |

| Managu | setite: ntpdate will run automatically at boot time to sync the time to the ubuntu ntp server. That is assuming that networking is going ok | 06:07 |
| setite | how do i do that | 06:07 |
| drspin | lilubu: put it in /etc/fstab | 06:07 |
| Managu | setite: if you want to run it RIGHT NOW!, you need to run "sudo ntpdate <ntp server>" | 06:07 |
| lilubu | drspin could you be a little more specific ? i dont know fstab very much | 06:07 |
| Managu | setite: at the risk of being a heretic, I use (oh, I forget now) time.windows.com as my ntp server | 06:08 |
| smooth-operator | now i get this error when i use the sudo command "Unable to start a standalone server: Address already in use" | 06:08 |
| Managu | but I think ubuntu runs it's own ntp server -- ntp.ubuntulinux.org? | 06:08 |

| swoon | crimsun Im in mepis livecd now... | 06:31 |
| setite | hey someone help | 06:32 |
| setite | im trying to make ntfs automoutn | 06:32 |
| setite | now im using the wiki | 06:32 |
| setite | /dev/hda1 /mnt/win98 vfat defaults,auto,uid=1000,gid=1000 0 0 | 06:32 |
| setite | thats what the tut says | 06:32 |
| setite | but im using ntfs | 06:32 |
| Managu | swoon,crimsun: just another random thought: it looks to me from that x-log paste that the x-server is trying to display at a resolution of 1792x1344. That's a fair bit higher than you indicate your laptop supports. | 06:32 |
| setite | so what do i put in place of vfat | 06:32 |
| Agrajag | ntfs | 06:32 |
| setite | ok | 06:32 |
| techn9ne | setitle, www.ubuntuguide.org | 06:32 |
| setite | :) | 06:32 |
| wolfsong | Managu: any idea what error 18 on boot would be? | 06:33 |
| calc | wolfsong: | 06:34 |
| calc | 18 : Selected cylinder exceeds maximum supported by BIOS | 06:34 |
| calc | This error is returned when a read is attempted at a linear block address beyond the end of the BIOS translated area. This generally happens if your disk is larger than the BIOS can handle (512MB for (E)IDE disks on older machines or larger than 8GB in general). | 06:34 |
| setite | what is this part | 06:34 |
| setite | defaults,auto,uid=1000,gid=1000 0 0 | 06:34 |
| setite | the uid, gid | 06:34 |
| Managu | setite: "auto" = always mount | 06:34 |
| setite | yea i know that part | 06:34 |
| daniels | swoon: looks like the nvidia driver in warty is broken | 06:34 |
| Managu | setite "uid=1000" = all files on this partition are made to look like they're owned by the user with the ID of 1000 | 06:34 |
| wolfsong | it doesn't like my syquest drive | 06:34 |
| swoon | Managu ahh, Im looking at XF86config and it seems to say that its trying to use 1680x1050... which is also to big | 06:34 |
| crimsun | daniels: the 'nv' one? | 06:34 |
| daniels | crimsun: yeah | 06:34 |
| crimsun | k | 06:35 |
| swoon | oh hmm so maybe I need to install a new nvidia-glx? | 06:35 |
| Managu | swoon: well, it lists a large number of modelines, but a number of them are eliminated during startup as not being compatible for some reason or other. | 06:35 |
| crimsun | swoon: try editing your /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 Modes to restrict them to 1280x800 and below | 06:35 |
| crimsun | swoon: according to http://cmb.phys.cwru.edu/kisner/linux/compaq-r3000/ , the binary nvidia driver is necessary for proper function | 06:35 |
| setite | awesome.. thanks managui | 06:36 |
| setite | managu | 06:36 |
| Managu | np | 06:36 |
| daniels | swoon: that doesn't indicate to me you're using nvidia-glx | 06:36 |
| daniels | oh, right | 06:36 |
| daniels | yeah, score one for nvidia. | 06:36 |
| swoon | im not | 06:36 |
| techn9ne | im using nvidia driver works great | 06:36 |
| techn9ne | i don tplay games so i dont know how great it is w/ 3d though | 06:37 |
| setite | question... when file browsing each folder opens in a new window... can i stop that? | 06:37 |
| spikeb | the nvidia driver works great for games. | 06:37 |
| swoon | ok so, what should I download onto harddrive here now that Im in mepislive, to install the nvidia drivers? | 06:37 |
| techn9ne | setite, yes its an option somewhere | 06:37 |
| techn9ne | they have a big long explanation of why thats better | 06:37 |
| techn9ne | it remembers window positions and its more "object oriented" or something | 06:37 |
| === calc hopes the new unreleased ati drivers will be good | ||
| techn9ne | you can go ctrl+shift+w and it closes all child windows | 06:38 |
| Managu | swoon: there are a number of options to try. for the nvidia drivers, you can go to www.nvidia.com, and browse their driver stuff | 06:38 |
| techn9ne | i dont remember where the option is located but its in one of hte GUI preference things | 06:38 |
| swoon | will the nvidia installer from nvidia.com compile on ubuntu fine? | 06:38 |
| crimsun | swoon: no need, it's already in warty | 06:38 |
| drspin | techn9ne: ctrl+shift+w here only closes a single parent window for me... | 06:39 |
| lilubu | how hard is it to install ati's driver ? | 06:39 |
| setite | is there a divx codec? | 06:39 |
| crimsun | lilubu: there are a number of steps. See the BinaryDriversHowto | 06:39 |
| setite | better yet | 06:39 |
| spikeb | not hard to install either drivers | 06:39 |
| setite | is there like one big ass codec pack? | 06:39 |
| crimsun | setite: get 'w32codecs' | 06:39 |
| techn9ne | drspin, it will close all parent windows you used to get to the currently selected window | 06:39 |
| setite | oh... duh | 06:39 |
| swoon | crimsun I thougt daniels just said it was broken? or are you saying that the nvidia stuff is in the repositories? | 06:40 |

| techn9ne | i dunno works fo rme | 06:40 |
| drspin | ...lucky | 06:40 |
| crimsun | swoon: to be honest, I'm not sure daniels was referring to "nvidia" (as opposed to "nv") | 06:40 |
| crimsun | swoon: but they are in the repo | 06:41 |
| setite | ok when i install an application with synaptic... its supposed to show up in my applications right | 06:41 |
| crimsun | swoon: you just have to follow the BinaryDriversHowto | 06:41 |

| calc | setite: only fdo .desktop ones will | 06:41 |

| setite | ok well i dont know what fdo .desktop is but how do i make xmms show up in the menu | 06:42 |
| crimsun | swoon: use a text browser like 'w3m' or 'links' | 06:42 |

| swoon | crimsun how can I stop x from starting at boot? | 06:43 |
| setite | oh ok... after i figure out the browsing thing ill restart... i want to see how fast ubuntu boots versus fedora | 06:43 |

| nevyn | smooth-operator: why are you attempting to run an ftp server? | 06:48 |
| smooth-operator | nevyn: to host files for friends and family | 06:49 |
| nevyn | on an internal network? | 06:49 |
| crimsun | swoon: there are 2 methods | 06:49 |
| smooth-operator | no, from all over the places | 06:49 |
| setite | ok it looks like automounting didnt work | 06:49 |
| nevyn | smooth-operator: do you have a permanant IP addres or a domain name? | 06:49 |
| smooth-operator | i believe my ip address is static | 06:50 |
| nevyn | or static enough? | 06:50 |

| === imcsk8 [~imcsk8@201.129.165.52] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| smooth-operator | yeah, i don't think it changes very often | 06:50 |
| swoon | does anyone know how to stop X from starting at boot?? | 06:50 |
| nevyn | smooth-operator: you need to configure dynamic dns to make this useful. | 06:50 |
| smooth-operator | ok | 06:50 |
| smooth-operator | so i need to register a dns address or something to that effect? | 06:51 |
| nevyn | so you need a domain name and somthing that will point it at you and let you login and update it. | 06:51 |
| crimsun | swoon: you can either use update-rc.d, or (actually there are more methods) remove the executable bit from /etc/init.d/gdm, or change /etc/X11/default-display-manager to not point to /usr/bin/gdm | 06:51 |
| smooth-operator | ok i'll try and figure that out | 06:51 |
| Managu | swoon: or just start in runlevel 2? | 06:51 |
| swoon | how do I start in runlevel 2? | 06:51 |
| crimsun | Managu: Ubuntu, like Debian, doesn't mess with runlevels. 2-5 are identical. | 06:52 |

| swoon | nevyn can I just change it to S99gdm-old ? | 06:54 |

| setite | i need a better resolution | 06:58 |

| nomasteryoda | setite, that is an intel mb | 06:59 |
| setite | yea i believe so... well i845gv i think | 06:59 |
| bob2 | X's default i810 driver is as good as it gets | 06:59 |
| setite | does intel have the drivers? | 06:59 |
| nomasteryoda | you need the 855resolution patch | 06:59 |
| nomasteryoda | yes | 06:59 |
| crimsun | bob2: the safest method might then be to simply change /etc/X11/default-display-manager ? | 06:59 |
| zenrox | setite, ya just use i840 driver | 06:59 |
| nomasteryoda | first instasll the drivers from intel | 06:59 |
| nomasteryoda | then run this patch | 07:00 |
| setite | ok now what tutorial explains how to do that | 07:00 |
| nomasteryoda | my lug site | 07:00 |

| techn9ne | like firestarter, firefox, gaim etc. | 07:26 |
| nomasteryoda | setite, i remember | 07:26 |

| xhypno | Anyone try to remove almost all packages, leaving just the essentials for a server? | 07:27 |
| xhypno | Apache, PHP, PERL, ASP, etc... | 07:27 |
| techn9ne | ummm you just selec ta custom install minmal | 07:27 |
| setite | ok now imma try again | 07:27 |
| Basttrax | ok. i'll take a loot. brb | 07:27 |
| setite | so can i just search for all bios=-1 and change the -1 to 0 | 07:27 |
| techn9ne | xhypno, ive seen howtos on that for installing on < 500mb of space | 07:27 |
| techn9ne | on p100's | 07:27 |
| nomasteryoda | setite, in just the vbios.c | 07:28 |
| setite | hehe everytime i rethink abotu how big everythign i decide to try again | 07:28 |
| techn9ne | minimal installs then you just apt get apache, mysql, php etc on top of it | 07:28 |
| setite | hmmm im in the wrong file then | 07:28 |
| nomasteryoda | yes | 07:28 |
| setite | haha that would help | 07:28 |
| setite | but | 07:28 |
| setite | "In '855resolution.c' I had to change" | 07:28 |
| setite | so i figured it was that file | 07:28 |

| bob2 | what have you changed since it las worked? | 08:35 |
| xed | bob2.. err.. | 08:35 |
| xed | Yesterday I spent like 4 hours talking to crimsun getting help, but I don't think it had anything to do with the Wireless Network card. | 08:35 |
| bob2 | you said that it once worked | 08:36 |
| bob2 | what have you changed since then? | 08:36 |
| bob2 | new kernel? | 08:36 |
| xed | well I am not certain it worked.. | 08:36 |
| xed | Most likely.. I don't know | 08:36 |
| xed | Let me ask crimsun.. heh | 08:36 |
| bob2 | moved to hoary? | 08:36 |
| bob2 | etc. | 08:36 |
| crimsun | he just installed warty yesterday. | 08:36 |

| toady_ | bob2: then I got nowhere to request this package fixed. Anyway thanks | 09:59 |
| bwb | crimsun: but then I decided to upgrade to x.org's libs and that's when it happened | 09:59 |
| bob2 | very much like mac os X | 09:59 |
| bwb | crimsun: k, where is it at? | 09:59 |
| bob2 | toady_: please read the bugzilla login message that tells you yo report it to the debian bts | 10:00 |
| crimsun | bwb: linked from the ubuntu home page, of course :) | 10:00 |
| bwb | heh k | 10:00 |
| mifune | crimsun: that command had no visuable effect | 10:00 |
| bleh_ | man, this RULES that I have the wifi working | 10:00 |
| bleh_ | I'm going to get slee | 10:00 |

| crimsun | mifune: good | 10:00 |
| bleh_ | sleep* | 10:00 |
| bleh_ | I got work soon.. =( | 10:00 |
| mifune | and now? | 10:00 |
| === bleh_ is now known as xed | ||
| bob2 | toady_: actualy, it's on the page you're looking at now | 10:00 |
| crimsun | mifune: sudo modprobe snd-sb16 index=0 isapnp=1 | 10:00 |
| xed | I'm lagging, aren't I? ._. | 10:01 |
| crimsun | (you don't appear to be) | 10:01 |
| toady_ | bob2: however, I think the message written "you must choose a component to file this bug in.." must be changed | 10:01 |
| xed | bo2: what was the software.. you were talking about? | 10:01 |
| === phyberoptix looks around | ||
| Keemy | dumb question.. what program handles internet connections? | 10:01 |
| toady_ | bob2: because it's not clear enough | 10:01 |
| bob2 | toady_: in what way? | 10:02 |
| xed | How would I know which wifi I'm connected to? | 10:02 |
| bob2 | xed: to do what? | 10:02 |
| bob2 | xed: netapplet? | 10:02 |
| xed | Thats the one | 10:02 |
| bob2 | xed: 'dmesg' should show it in the bottom few lines | 10:02 |
| bob2 | Keemy: how do you mean? | 10:02 |
| xed | ...dmesg? | 10:02 |
| Keemy | like kde has kppp | 10:02 |
| toady_ | bob2: in the way I didn't know what it was really. Component can be many things | 10:03 |
| xed | bob2: ..I see many lines. | 10:03 |
| bob2 | Keemy: you mean for managing ppp dialup connections in gnome? | 10:03 |
| xed | ....many..many lines. | 10:03 |
| Keemy | yes | 10:03 |
| bob2 | xed: yes, as I said, look at the bottom few lines | 10:03 |
| toady_ | bob2: something like "The package or component might not be provided with hoary" would be easier to guess where to problem comes from | 10:03 |
| crimsun | mifune: what did that command return? | 10:03 |
| bob2 | Keemy: pppconfig in a terminal is pretty good | 10:03 |
| mifune | hmm. error. no such device. | 10:03 |
| bob2 | toady_: it explains not 2 lines away that you should only file bugs on packages in 'supported' | 10:04 |
| xed | err.. bob2.. i don't think that really shows me the name of the wifi. =( | 10:04 |
| crimsun | mifune: you're positive it's "PnP"? | 10:04 |
| mifune | my dad was. | 10:04 |
| bob2 | toady_: also, the word 'component' isn't on that page anywhere, it only says 'package'. | 10:04 |
| bob2 | xed: ok then | 10:04 |
| toady_ | no | 10:04 |
| crimsun | mifune: sudo modprobe snd-sb16 index=0 isapnp=0 | 10:04 |
| toady_ | bob2: I'll do a screenshot ;) | 10:04 |
| xed | I know I know, I'm asking very dumb questions... I'm completely new to this.. so sorry =( | 10:04 |
| bob2 | xed: just install netapplet | 10:04 |
| mifune | i already thought that :P | 10:05 |
| xed | bob2, not available in the archives? | 10:05 |
| crimsun | mifune: and the result? | 10:05 |
| Keemy | what is initd? | 10:05 |
| bwb | hrm how "stable" in general is hoary? | 10:05 |
| bob2 | xed: wiki.ubuntu.com/SynapticHowto (3rd time).. enable universe. | 10:05 |
| xed | I suck =( | 10:06 |
| bob2 | Keemy: you mean 'initrd'? | 10:06 |
| xed | sorry | 10:06 |
| toady_ | bob2: http://pvs.berlios.de/public/Screenshot.png | 10:06 |
| Keemy | umm yes | 10:06 |
| mifune | nothing | 10:06 |
| crimsun | bwb: I would say it's not unless you're comfortable debugging things | 10:06 |
| crimsun | mifune: just returns you to prompt? | 10:06 |
| bwb | crimsun: yeah hmm.. | 10:06 |
| mifune | yeah. | 10:06 |
| xed | what does 'enable universe' mean, bob2? | 10:06 |
| bwb | crimsun: thinking it might be better if I just upgraded to hoary, and see if it still freezes | 10:06 |
| bwb | and then submit based on that | 10:06 |
| xed | I got the link.. but not sure what the enable universe means. =( | 10:06 |

| crimsun | mifune: so it wasn't PnP after all | 10:08 |
| bob2 | toady_: you're welcome to file a bug about that, but I'm not sure how much anything can help if people won't read the instructions | 10:08 |
| bob2 | xed: read that page | 10:08 |
| xed | Yessum =( | 10:08 |
| bob2 | please don't be like that | 10:08 |
| mifune | im going to slap my dad :P | 10:08 |
| crimsun | mifune: echo snd-sb16 | sudo tee -a /etc/modules | 10:08 |
| xed | bob2, sorry | 10:09 |
| bob2 | xed: the ubuntu software archive is split into several sections. the largest is called 'universe' and contains unsupported software. you're configuring apt (synaptic/whatever) to look for software there. | 10:09 |

| toady_ | bob2: having a message easier to read would help | 10:09 |
| Keemy | it doesn't seem to pick up anything on my ISA slots | 10:09 |

| bob2 | xed: ignore it, you wont find a useful definition | 10:10 |
| xed | storage..I think I get it. | 10:10 |
| crimsun | mifune: now you can use Applications>Sound & Video>Volume Control to unmute and adjust the volume | 10:10 |
| e-Jah | salut/hi | 10:10 |
| xed | I think I get it... | 10:10 |
| bob2 | Keemy: yes, you'll probably need to do it manually | 10:10 |
| xed | Like a storage of things you have to add to be able to use later.. or get .. or install? | 10:10 |
| crimsun | mifune: and when you reboot, your sound card will be used. | 10:10 |
| xed | something like that? | 10:10 |
| Keemy | i think i need an isa config tool | 10:11 |
| bob2 | more or less | 10:11 |
| Keemy | then again.. maybe it's that those 2 modems aren't recognized | 10:11 |
| xed | bob2: netapplet .. what section is it under? | 10:11 |

| xed | Stupid question? | 10:12 |

| cartman | crimsun: sorry no nautilus here although I run Hoary | 10:46 |
| lilubu | can i restart the font server within X ? | 10:46 |
| cartman | so my method works everywhere ;) | 10:47 |
| cartman | lilubu: just run fc-cache -v | 10:47 |
| cartman | as root and your done | 10:47 |
| cartman | font cache updated | 10:47 |
| lilubu | thank you | 10:47 |

| cartman | lilubu: but also note <crimsun> lilubu: in Nautilus, Open Location: fonts:/// | 10:47 |

| dobby_ | hello how can i change the window manager that if i start ubuntu it starts enlightenment and not gnome? | 11:06 |
| lilubu | i'm using ubuntu as a primary os now.. linux os. they essentially work in similiar ways though this is meant to be more of a desktop. i'm still wondering if i'll be able to run a mail server from ubuntu | 11:06 |
| Tomcat_ | lilubu: Just install exim4 ;) | 11:06 |
| bob2 | sure you can | 11:07 |
| bob2 | it works great | 11:07 |
| Tomcat_ | Ubuntu is still not the best server OS imho, but it does work as one. :) | 11:07 |
| lilubu | hmm exim4 is the mailer daemon ? ok.. see -- i'm totally new for that kind of thing and have to wait a bit before i get my hands dirty with it. started my LPI training tonight. learning vi and all its commands. i think they might want me to run postfix or something else i'm not sure who universal exim4 is | 11:08 |
| === cartman [~cartman@cartman.developer.konversation] has left #ubuntu ["Nich] | ||
| Tomcat_ | exim4 is *one* mailer daemon... quite good one imho. | 11:09 |
| Tomcat_ | But not the best according to most people. | 11:09 |
| === treed uses exim4 | ||
| lilubu | there are others i could use ? | 11:09 |
| === Tomcat_ uses exim4 | ||
| Tomcat_ | Sure lilubu. | 11:09 |
| lilubu | okies | 11:09 |
| lilubu | good | 11:09 |
| treed | sendmail, some othens | 11:09 |
| treed | exim4 is simple and doesn't give me problems | 11:09 |
| bob2 | Tomcat_: in what way isn't it? | 11:09 |
| Tomcat_ | I'm not sure how difficult the config of exim4 is... it looked difficult to me, but I never did anything special with it, so it just works. | 11:10 |
| Tomcat_ | bob2: Not a server OS? | 11:10 |
| lilubu | i love simple and problem free. i'm just not sure if my instructors will want that. | 11:10 |
| bob2 | Tomcat_: yes | 11:10 |
| lilubu | perhaps its setup to be more of a workstation than server ? | 11:10 |
| Tomcat_ | bob2: Well the default install (and there's only that) installs an X and many X apps, right? I'm not sure if I want to fill up my HD with that... | 11:11 |
| bob2 | no | 11:11 |
| bob2 | Tomcat_: no, you can do a custom install that doesn't install them | 11:11 |
| Tomcat_ | Sure, it'll work as a server, but the idea that the same installation is good for a workstation or a server scares me a bit. :P | 11:11 |
| Tomcat_ | Oh... okay. :) | 11:11 |
| Tomcat_ | Proven wrong then. :> | 11:11 |
| lilubu | how do you do custom install ? | 11:11 |
| bob2 | read the instructions when the cd boots | 11:12 |
| lilubu | heh ok. mine just said press enter.. thats all i can remember | 11:12 |
| anoxia | i found default install cluttered, trying minimal now | 11:13 |
| lilubu | i like my computer loaded with anything i could ever possibly want | 11:13 |

| kipod | bob2, do u remmber the cmd u gave to conf. my gateway .... | 11:25 |
| Bodyrides | Am i in the wrong place here?I`ve never used any form of Linux ever so i`m just looking at how to carry out basic operations.Got Ubuntu running in VPC but that`s as far as i`ve got.Where can i go for "real novice" info? | 11:26 |

| lilubu | there is #lfd or linux for dummies.. not that your dunb. though they are an advanced group the name implies they are there to help novices. | 11:27 |

| dobby_ | hello how can i update my window manager. I installed enlightenment but dont see it in my windowmanager list in gdm? | 11:28 |
| lifeless | kipod: fix your dhcp server. | 11:28 |
| lilubu | i would like to enter my gateway and assign my machine a specific internal ip address. where might i learn how to do that ? | 11:29 |
| Bodyrides | yeah i can see it,bit i`m determined that my whole family is going to move away from Windows,just got to figure it all out first but it`s harder than i assumed it would be. | 11:29 |
| kipod | lifeless, i don't use dhcp | 11:29 |
| bob2 | kipod: I can only assume your /etc/network/interfaces is wrong | 11:29 |
| lifeless | kipod: then see what bob2 suggested | 11:30 |
| lilubu | Bodyrides i suggest you try to be more proficient at typing unless you just woke up or something because linux is case sensitive and picky as you learn to use a terminal. everything can matter. | 11:31 |
| kipod | bob2, i have tryed to add a "gateway 192.168.1.1" to the '/etc/network/interfaces' file but for some resone when i boot two things can happen: 1. it don't eccept that 2. the file is rewirten and the getway line is removed | 11:31 |
| lilubu | i would not suggest using linux to get away from windows unless you are willing to apply yourself. | 11:32 |
| bob2 | kipod: "it don't eccept that"? what do you mean? | 11:32 |
| kipod | bob2, nothing happen ....it ignore the gateway | 11:32 |
| lifeless | bob2: with that accent, I'd say american for 'accept' | 11:32 |
| Bodyrides | Thanks lilibu,i work with a guy who`s fantastic with unix based systems we use at work,he`s told me the same thing. | 11:33 |
| kipod | hum... i m sory for my bad english | 11:33 |
| nevyn | is there a typing tutor in ubuntu by default? | 11:34 |
| lilubu | is there a utility for managing the /etc/network/interfaces ? | 11:35 |
| lilubu | i'm lost in the man page | 11:35 |

| BlacKnight| | is there anything special i have to do to install lilo? | 11:36 |
| BlacKnight| | i'm getting this error: | 11:36 |
| BlacKnight| | Fatal: Empty map section | 11:36 |
| bob2 | BlacKnight|: why are you installin lilo? | 11:37 |
| BlacKnight| | because i think grub is screwing up my usb pnp | 11:37 |
| BlacKnight| | i could be wrong *shrug* | 11:37 |
| bob2 | I really really really really really really (ad inifinitum) doubt it is | 11:38 |
| BlacKnight| | well what is then? | 11:39 |
| BlacKnight| | it stops usb pnp working in both linux and winblows! | 11:39 |
| BlacKnight| | i haven't changed any bios settings since i installed ubuntu over mandrake | 11:39 |
| bob2 | I don't know | 11:39 |
| bob2 | have you asked on the list yet? | 11:39 |
| BlacKnight| | and now usb pnp has stopped in both linux and windows! | 11:39 |
| BlacKnight| | meh | 11:39 |
| lilubu | i can't mess around ewith /etc/network/interfaces without understanding because if i'm left without an internet connection i'm out of luck | 11:40 |
| lilubu | usb pnp is hardware independant there is nothing in grub or lilo that would change that. | 11:41 |
| lilubu | people add usb devices to linux and remove them as they wish all the time. | 11:41 |
| bob2 | lilubu: you read the example file? | 11:42 |
| lilubu | for /etc/network/interfaces ? | 11:42 |
| [Bas] | nevyn, gtypist (console only) is in universe, but if you want something for the kids you can look a tuxtype (allso in universe) http://tuxtype.sourceforge.net/ | 11:42 |
| bob2 | yes | 11:42 |
| bob2 | lilubu: mentioned at the end of man 5 interfaces | 11:42 |
| lilubu | i went through the whole man page.. all i know is what made sense to me was the static ip definitions but i would not know how to alter my auto etho dhcp config to that of a static gateway etc. its gotta be simple i just dont know what alternations to change. | 11:43 |
| mdz | BlacKnight|: perhaps you were setting a command-line parameter before, which wasn't propagated to your new grub config | 11:44 |
| bob2 | read the example file | 11:44 |
| bob2 | it shows exactly how to do that | 11:44 |

| funky | hi | 12:47 |
| funky | what dirs are "protected" when i perform an apt-get remove package ? | 12:47 |
| funky | /etc and anymore ? | 12:48 |
| aquarius | seb128, ok, I must be having some kind of blonde moment; I can't find it in the archive at all (I've looked in pool/ for the deb, and I looked in dists/hoary/universe/binary-i386/Packages.gz and couldn't find it. | 12:48 |

| creatix | where is the default folder with all my installed programms, im searching for vlc! | 12:48 |

| seb128 | aquarius: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/o/openoffice.org/openoffice.org-gnomevfs_1.1.3-2.3ubuntu6_i386.deb | 12:49 |
| topyl1 | funky: apt-get remove doesn't remove configuration unless you use --purge | 12:49 |
| === l1quid [l1quid@i.r.teh.elitegaming.net] has left #ubuntu [] | ||
| aquarius | seb128, ahaha! It's in the openoffice.org directory. Gotcha; I thought it was its own source package... | 12:49 |
| topyl1 | funky: some packages may leave something in /var as well | 12:49 |
| seb128 | aquarius: nop | 12:49 |
| funky | topyl1: do you know where can i set that ? | 12:50 |
| creatix | thx, aquarius! found it! | 12:50 |
| topyl1 | funky: you mean --purge? it's just an apt-get option | 12:50 |
| aquarius | One more question: is there some kind of graphical tool that installs a specific deb (so that it can be the click action for deb files in Nautilus)? | 12:52 |
| ironwolf | is installing a new theme still borked in hoary? I'm getting a permissions issue when the dir is 0777 | 12:52 |
| bob2 | no | 12:52 |
| bob2 | use dpkg | 12:52 |
| === pitti [~martin@195.227.105.180] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| aquarius | bob2, I know I can use dpkg from the command line...but if I associate dpkg -i with clicking deb files, I won't get any feedback on whether it worked or not. OK, cheers for the pointer, though! | 12:53 |
| bob2 | don't associate it | 12:53 |
| bob2 | just do it manually | 12:54 |

| carambol | i have used already universe...is that a problem? | 12:54 |
| ironwolf | carambol: you change references in /etc/apt/sources.list to hoary instead of warty , then apt-get update, apt-get dist-upgrade | 12:54 |
| funky | topyl1: yes, i know --purgue, but i mean how to select the dirs where files stored in, wont be deleted when i'll do an apt-get remove | 12:55 |
| ironwolf | carambol: no universe usage isn't an issue. | 12:55 |
| aquarius | bob2, I agree, in theory -- but I don't want to upgrade to hoary just to give OO.o the ability to use gnomevfs, so I'm using the hoary package. | 12:55 |
| carambol | ironwolf: all the sorces? | 12:55 |
| carambol | sources | 12:56 |
| funky | topyl1: you got it ? | 12:56 |
| goedson | carambol: I would advice to mark libselinux1 to hold before upgrading. I broke my system today. | 12:56 |
| ironwolf | carambol: all the sources yes, change warty to hoary everywhere in that file *after you've made a backup of course* | 12:56 |
| topyl1 | funky: ah. don't know about that. if the dir is empty after package removal, dpkg will remove it | 12:56 |
| ironwolf | carambol: I just updated my hoary, and aside from themes being annoying, it all seems to be working. | 12:56 |
| carambol | how i detect if i already have installed libselinux1? | 12:57 |

| Mabus | seb128: I don't know who's responsible (at ubuntu) for mono + friends, but could you take a look at https://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=5052 ? | 02:04 |
| Mabus | it has been broken for weeks | 02:04 |
| Mabus | (1.0.4 vs. 1.0.2) | 02:04 |
| seb128 | mono is not supported | 02:04 |
| seb128 | but thom and lamont was looking on it IIRC | 02:04 |
| Mabus | no, I know, but debian sid has updated packages, while the ubuntu archive has only updated 50% of the packages | 02:04 |
| Mabus | some of the packages are 1.0.4 and some are 1.0.2, so it doesn't make sense. | 02:05 |
| seb128 | are you sure ? it was broken 2 weeks ago but works here now | 02:05 |
| Mabus | oh, didn't work last night - I'm at work now, so I can't check | 02:05 |
| Mabus | so you have mono 1.0.4 ? | 02:05 |
| seb128 | hum, nop, doesn't work, right | 02:05 |
| Mabus | oh | 02:05 |
| seb128 | I've blam and tomboy installed which work | 02:05 |
| seb128 | but mono doesn't | 02:06 |
| seb128 | as said before thom and lamont was looking on the build issue IIRC | 02:06 |
| Mabus | think you could push someone to update blam to 1.6.0 - it uses gecko in 1.6, which is a gigantic improvement. | 02:06 |
| === matt987654 [~matt@203-113-251-37.QLD.netspace.net.au] has left #ubuntu [] | ||

| seb128 | Mabus: it has been uploaded in debian yesterday IIRC | 02:07 |
| seb128 | just wait | 02:07 |
| Mabus | so it will propagate to the ubuntu archives soon ? | 02:07 |
| Mabus | I just figured that since the mono packages hasn't propagated in weeks, the blam package would stall as well. | 02:07 |
| seb128 | the packages have propagated | 02:08 |
| seb128 | they simply don't build | 02:08 |

| neofeed | ubuntu-noob, crap. every burner can go to 1x | 06:13 |
| setite | woo woo i love ubuntu | 06:13 |
| setite | hehe | 06:13 |
| MattySisu | ogra: but I removed the support in the kernel myself | 06:13 |
| ogra | ubuntu-noob: so next, burning speed.....i also saw good cds at 8x....but 4x is absolutely safe | 06:13 |
| setite | the resolution sucks... but im glad to say thats the only thing that sucks | 06:13 |
| MattySisu | ogra: firefox doesnt seem to start now | 06:13 |
| ubuntu-noob | OK | 06:13 |
| ubuntu-noob | thx | 06:13 |
| MattySisu | ogra: so I cant look at the about:/ | 06:13 |
| setite | when burning delicate things always use 4x | 06:14 |
| MattySisu | ogra: any suggestion? | 06:14 |
| ubuntu-noob | I'm using the Disk Utility in OSX | 06:14 |
| setite | or when you dont like coasters | 06:14 |
| ubuntu-noob | I are GUI dependant unleet-er | 06:14 |
| setite | hey ogra... can you pencil me in for help getting a better resolution on this intel 845g onboard video? | 06:14 |
| setite | i are? | 06:14 |
| setite | english is not your first language i gather | 06:14 |
| ubuntu-noob | _sarcasm_ | 06:15 |
| ogra | MattySisu: what is the error if you run it from the commandline ? | 06:15 |
| setite | oh ok | 06:15 |
| setite | firefox is evil... get opera!!!! | 06:15 |
| ogra | setite: lol | 06:15 |
| setite | i know this is odd... because it wasnt the same in windows... but firefox on here is slower than shit... and opera runs fine... | 06:15 |
| fabbione | setite: doing spell checking on non-native speakers isn't very nice. | 06:15 |
| fabbione | specially when they are here to help | 06:16 |
| fabbione | it's highly demotivating | 06:16 |
| setite | i know... but if they take it seriously they have issues | 06:16 |
| setite | i mean i feel like im on dialup... not because of loading times necessarily but because of the response time | 06:16 |
| setite | anyone that has a emachine | 06:16 |
| ogra | setite: if the live CD doesnt detect it right and you couldnt figure it out in a week (iirc) how should i do it ? | 06:16 |
| setite | or knows how i can fix the video please help | 06:16 |
| ubuntu-noob | _laugh_ For the record, I'm perfectly proficient in english. In fact, like all good americans, it's about all I'm capable of. | 06:16 |
| fabbione | setite: you are wrong. | 06:16 |
| setite | yea but it works fine in the install version | 06:17 |
| setite | im at 1024x768 | 06:17 |
| setite | but its capable of better modes.... | 06:17 |
| ogra | setite: so reconfigure it ;) | 06:17 |

| setite | and this is still just a little too big for me to be productive | 06:17 |
| setite | well i cant | 06:17 |
| setite | 1024x768 is the max it allows me | 06:17 |
| MattySisu | ogra: no error | 06:17 |
| MattySisu | ogra: refuses to start.. | 06:17 |
| setite | but earlier i was getting help from nomasteryoda... so its possible | 06:17 |
| setite | but his method was confusing me | 06:18 |
| setite | but the last step i was one was installing the drivers from intel | 06:18 |
| ogra | setite: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -plow xserver-xfree86 .....and select the right H and V sync values | 06:18 |
| fabbione | setite: you can set X resolution at the boot for the Live CD | 06:18 |
| ogra | MattySisu: did you ever run it with sudo ? | 06:18 |
| fabbione | setite: that's where it is "detected" | 06:18 |
| setite | ok ill try that | 06:18 |

| setite | no fabbione... we spent time on the live cd | 06:19 |
| fabbione | because they use a different config schema | 06:19 |
| ogra | fabbione: hi :) | 06:19 |
| setite | it would probably take editing the actual files on disk... so i just went ahead and installed it | 06:19 |
| ogra | fabbione: i think he finally installed now..... | 06:19 |
| fabbione | ah ok | 06:19 |
| setite | yea i did | 06:19 |
| setite | got annoyed | 06:19 |
| fabbione | setite: what ogra said is correct | 06:19 |

| fabbione | ok that's a royal pain to setup | 06:21 |
| fabbione | setite: just put a 4096 in there | 06:22 |
| setite | yea i learned that yesterday | 06:22 |
| fabbione | iirc the menu asks it in KB | 06:22 |
| setite | iirc? | 06:22 |
| fabbione | "if i remember correctly" | 06:22 |
| setite | yea thats where i am now | 06:22 |
| setite | it wasnt it in kb | 06:22 |
| fabbione | just put 4096 | 06:22 |
| setite | so 4096? | 06:22 |
| fabbione | yes but we will have to check it again | 06:23 |
| setite | use kernel framebuffer? | 06:23 |
| fabbione | no | 06:23 |

| setite | ok | 06:23 |
| fabbione | setite: just hit a bunch of enters right now | 06:23 |
| fabbione | no need to get stupid | 06:23 |
| fabbione | these onborad cards do not have real memory | 06:24 |
| ogra | fabbione: now i can offer amd64 pkgs..... how is your neck ? | 06:24 |
| fabbione | they use system memory that is allocated and reserved by the BIOS | 06:24 |
| fabbione | ogra: nice toy :-) my neck still hurts | 06:24 |
| fabbione | setite: what you need to do is check in the BIOS how much memory is allocated to the video card | 06:24 |

| fabbione | set the correct amount of RAM | 06:25 |
| setite | ok what resolution should i pick | 06:25 |
| fabbione | and set the resolution you want | 06:25 |
| setite | any suggestions? | 06:25 |
| fabbione | setite: that depends how much ram is allocated to the gfx card | 06:25 |
| setite | see in windows its all sized differently | 06:25 |
| fabbione | setite: for this run.. it doesn't matter | 06:25 |
| setite | so 1024x768 is fine | 06:25 |
| ogra | setite: i thought you know what you used in win ? | 06:25 |
| stuNNed_ | xorg is freaking out, damn xorg and nvidia drivers | 06:25 |
| fabbione | you will have to reconfigure later | 06:25 |

| fabbione | setite: yeah | 06:26 |
| ogra | stuNNed_: dont blame xorg ;) | 06:26 |
| setite | see im doing all the same thing in windows... lik mirc... gaim... mp3 and such | 06:26 |
| setite | but there is just no room | 06:26 |
| ogra | neofeed: wanna have it ? i | 06:26 |
| ogra | i'll send you the orikginal CD if you like ;) | 06:26 |
| neofeed | Sell it on Ebay as OVP? | 06:26 |
| setite | what will happen if my monitor cant hangle the resolution | 06:26 |
| stuNNed_ | ogra, ok :) | 06:26 |
| setite | or will it not give me one it cant handle | 06:26 |
| neofeed | ogra, whow.. no thanks, I got one myself | 06:26 |
| MattySisu | ogra: hmm, I tried to run it with sudo, seems to take ages for it to start...? | 06:26 |

| setite | tell me this | 06:27 |

| setite | ok | 06:27 |
| stuNNed_ | ogra, ah, thought you were the author of that repo, sorry about that :) | 06:27 |

| === neofeed 's CDRW's only make 4x crappy Sony shit. (but the cover design is cool) | ||
| ogra | stuNNed_: that would get expensive....too much bandwith..... | 06:28 |
| Capri | setite: maybe you'll see an out of sync warning. depends on monitor | 06:28 |
| setite | if i set the highest will it now give me all the other options is the regular screen resolution menu under computer -> system configuration | 06:28 |
| setite | yea im worried about the out of sync warning | 06:28 |
| setite | bad experience with those | 06:28 |
| ubuntu-noob | To restate: I have hda1-4 | 06:28 |
| ubuntu-noob | 1 is 32 megs ext3 for /boot | 06:28 |
| ubuntu-noob | 2 is my windows install | 06:29 |
| ubuntu-noob | 3 is 1 gig, swap | 06:29 |
| ubuntu-noob | 4 is 10 megs, for / | 06:29 |
| Capri | setite: why? | 06:29 |
| neofeed | 1 GIG swap? | 06:29 |
| === port7 [~bob@dsl-212-23-23-232.zen.co.uk] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| neofeed | 10 MB for / ? | 06:29 |
| ubuntu-noob | I'm crazy like that | 06:29 |
| neofeed | you are nut! | 06:29 |
| ubuntu-noob | er 10 gigs | 06:29 |
| SpaceNuts | ubuntu-noob: have you checked the cd integrity | 06:29 |
| SpaceNuts | mine is broken | 06:29 |
| setite | ok what do i do | 06:29 |
| ubuntu-noob | yes | 06:29 |
| setite | i went through all that and i dont see any more resolutions | 06:29 |
| ubuntu-noob | verified by apples wonderful disk utitility | 06:29 |
| MattySisu | ogra: hmm, any idea what ?, I noticed that the nvidia binary drivers seem to have issues with 2.6 kernels, think that could cause this kindof phenomena ?, on the otherhand as I mentioned konq works great...?? | 06:29 |
| neofeed | ubuntu-noob, why 1 gig swap? hoch much mem do you have? | 06:30 |
| techn9ne | setite, select your monitor manually | 06:30 |
| ubuntu-noob | 1 gig | 06:30 |
| setite | capri - i recall one of those and not being able to fix it for a while | 06:30 |
| setite | tech where | 06:30 |
| setite | device manager? | 06:30 |
| SpaceNuts | ubuntu-noob: I don't know for sure but a 32mb /boot partition containing ext3 is a little small i think | 06:30 |
| ogra | MattySisu: i dont know what to guess here, since you made your own kernel....the ubuntu packages work fine together..... | 06:30 |
| ubuntu-noob | should be plenty for the kernel, no?!?! | 06:31 |
| neofeed | ubuntu-noob, so why do you want to swap the whole ram to the disk? | 06:31 |
| ubuntu-noob | Fedora didn't have an issue with it anyway | 06:31 |
| Capri | ubuntu-noob: it's enough for two kernels | 06:31 |
| neofeed | ubuntu-noob, SWAP==SLOW | 06:31 |
| SpaceNuts | yeah but with ext3 it is a journaling filesystem and needs some extra storage for that | 06:31 |
| ubuntu-noob | exactly | 06:31 |
| SpaceNuts | not sure | 06:31 |
| techn9ne | setite, i think so i dont know ive never done it w/ ubuntu i dont know where the gui tool is accessible from | 06:31 |
| SpaceNuts | Capri: oh ok, make mine always 128mb | 06:31 |
| ubuntu-noob | There is plenty of disk space, so I just allocated a gig for swap | 06:31 |
| ubuntu-noob | It doesn't matter since i have a gig of ram anyway | 06:32 |
| neofeed | yea.. go ahead | 06:32 |
| ubuntu-noob | OK, manually editing partitions | 06:32 |
| ogra | brb | 06:32 |
| neofeed | ubuntu-noob, my 1.5GB ram are 90% filled | 06:32 |
| neofeed | because linux keeps caching stuff | 06:32 |
| ubuntu-noob | Well, there is that | 06:32 |
| SpaceNuts | linux always uses the swap | 06:32 |
| SpaceNuts | why not? | 06:32 |
| neofeed | I prefere to keep my cache in MEM instead of dumping it onto my damn slow hd. | 06:33 |
| ubuntu-noob | OK, done setting up partitions | 06:33 |
| SpaceNuts | hmm oh i thought you meant when your mem was full it filled up the swap | 06:33 |
| neofeed | in the days when I had 16MB ram swap was great. today i'd not go past 256mb swap | 06:33 |
| Capri | SpaceNuts: du -sh /boot/ 3,3M | 06:33 |
| SpaceNuts | ok alright | 06:33 |
| ubuntu-noob | OK | 06:34 |
| ubuntu-noob | we are at installing base system | 06:34 |
| ubuntu-noob | where I died last time | 06:34 |
| SpaceNuts | Capri: I thought it needed to bee bigger for ext3 fs, nevermind I said that | 06:34 |
| neofeed | ubuntu-noob, weird: a) I don't install the base system, b) you got reincanated? | 06:34 |
| ubuntu-noob | FUCK | 06:34 |

| unperson | scizzo, The real kicker is that the URLs don't work at all in XMMS, so I'm stuck. Now this could mean the URLs are malformed in some way, I don't know. But like I said, they can work in beep if it isn't already open. | 06:56 |

| paulproteus | Wait, that's the opposite of what you want. | 07:33 |
| setite | and on a side note | 07:34 |
| ogra | unperson: you have to use pinning to make this work in a sne way....but that requires high skills of apt knowledge | 07:34 |

| setite | am i SOL? | 07:53 |
| sensebend | what model is your monitor? | 07:53 |
| techn9ne | Appolonius, dialup or broadband? | 07:53 |
| setite | envision | 07:54 |
| setite | 775e i think | 07:54 |
| setite | thats what linux finds it to be | 07:54 |
| setite | should i google it | 07:54 |
| ogra | carambol: for most information the wiki is more reliable....it gets reviewed by developers.... | 07:54 |
| carambol | ok | 07:54 |
| ogra | setite: it is most likely in the handbook.... | 07:54 |
| setite | dunno where that is | 07:54 |
| Appolonius | techn9ne: broadband | 07:55 |
| carambol | ubuntu is nice and very very fast | 07:55 |
| setite | i found the monitor specs on the net though | 07:55 |

| setite | ok | 07:56 |
| ogra | setite: you must specify a range there..... | 07:57 |
| setite | shoot... i dont know the lowest | 07:57 |
| no0tic | ogra: I found in the forum: linux-686 for newer Intel/AthlonXP | 07:58 |
| Appolonius | techn9ne: ok.. where would i type that at? | 07:58 |
| no0tic | ogra: posted by ubuntu-geek, administrator | 07:58 |
| ogra | no0tic: k7 is compiled for newer amd 32 bit CPUs | 07:58 |
| sensebend | try 56 for the lowest refresh and 30 for the lowest sync | 07:58 |
| ogra | no0tic: so it is the right one ..... 686 is P2 P3 P4... | 07:59 |
| techn9ne | Appolonius, into command prompt | 07:59 |

| ogra | ucblockhead: the ubuntu package should just work fine...execpt for nvidia users.....thanks to nvidia there is a bug in the driver..... | 08:14 |

| adam_ | can some one help me install java vm on ubuntu | 08:47 |
| setite | kebac - i know there is a difference | 08:47 |
| kebac | setite: you say 64 000KB. but since MB consists of 1024KB:s, it is 65536KB | 08:47 |

| setite | so you were answering that... ok | 08:48 |
| setite | yea i know the 1024 thing too | 08:48 |
| setite | but i dont know how to make this video work | 08:48 |
| kebac | setite: no, usually video memory is expressed as MB:s | 08:48 |
| kebac | setite: MB = megabytes, Mb = megabits | 08:48 |
| setite | anyone know if i should use kernel framebuffer | 08:48 |
| setite | oh i see what you mean | 08:48 |
| setite | i dont specify that | 08:48 |
| Mabus | erm.. I need some help installing *ahem* WinXP. heh. I need to use 3rd party RAID drivers, but I don't have a floppy drive; how can I make the installer/setup look at the CDD for drivers instead of the FD? | 08:48 |
| kebac | setite: i have never seen anywhere video memories as bits | 08:48 |
| setite | mb is megabytes to me... i never talk abotu bits | 08:48 |
| davmor2 | ogra finally found out what the problem was with the boot up the kernel that comes with 64bit version is ...........-04 the modified glx-nvidia kernel is ..........-03 so by default grub installs the highest | 08:49 |
| Mabus | (it's not my computer, so I can't choose what to install) | 08:49 |
| kebac | setite: you should start talking... | 08:49 |
| setite | nah.. never need to discuss megabits, kilobits and bits | 08:49 |
| kebac | setite: except when talking about network | 08:49 |
| setite | kebac do you know if i need to use kernel frambuffering | 08:49 |
| kebac | setite: i dont | 08:49 |
| setite | yea but i still never talk abotu them... | 08:49 |
| setite | ok | 08:49 |
| setite | hmmm next tiem around ill say yes if this doesnt work | 08:50 |
| ogra | davmor2: ah, good to know...i ordered a 64bit machine with nvidia inside yesterday....thanks for reporting...so you got it working ? | 08:50 |

| ZzeCoOl | :> | 11:32 |
| ogra | ZzeCoOl: yep, thats how the tools are called | 11:32 |
| HrdwrBoB | catch is, it uses the soundcard so that other apps that don't use it don't work | 11:32 |

| HrdwrBoB | so if you open a terminal | 11:32 |
| ZzeCoOl | you are really very good person | 11:32 |
| HrdwrBoB | and run 'killall esd' | 11:32 |
| Ensiferum | davmor2: i just noticed that the cd-roms are connected to ide 2 channel | 11:32 |
| HrdwrBoB | xine will work | 11:32 |
| HrdwrBoB | or if you use mplayer | 11:32 |
| HrdwrBoB | like this: | 11:32 |
| Ensiferum | davmor2: maybe i oughta try ide 1 channel | 11:33 |
| HrdwrBoB | mplayer -vo xv -ao esd dvd:// | 11:33 |
| nakeee | ogra: what's te differance between country teams and drived distro? | 11:33 |
| Doomhammer | can MPlayer play MP4 files? | 11:33 |

| Doomhammer | good -- i downloaded "all" the codecs, so it should work fine | 11:34 |
| ogra | nakeee: knoppix is a debian derived distro .... acountry team is a team..... | 11:34 |
| JDAcura | i got a question. i just installed ubuntu and it didnt ask me for a root password. so what is it or how to i change it ? | 11:34 |
| davmor2 | ensiferum try everything you can think of something has got to work. | 11:34 |
| ogra | nakeee: ubuntu is a debian derived distro too ;) | 11:34 |
| Doomhammer | JDAcura: Ubuntu doesn't use a root account -- you have to "sudo ..." everything and enter your password | 11:34 |
| JDAcura | ok im used to root. | 11:35 |
| nakeee | ogra: if I make a country team to make ubuntu fit to a certain country, is it only configuration thing or can we add packages and the like? | 11:35 |
| ari_ | ogra this is what i have to install sun-j2sdk1.5_1.5.0_i386.deb | 11:35 |
| JDAcura | now i got to figure out my x server i cant get it to load | 11:35 |
| Doomhammer | JDAcura: me too ;) but you can start a "root console" from the Gnome menu | 11:35 |
| Doomhammer | JDAcura: have a look at /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 11:35 |
| ZzeCoOl | Doomhammer: use sudo passwd | 11:35 |
| JDAcura | i have been having problems. i can get it to load but its got virtual on | 11:35 |

| Doomhammer | does Ubuntu use XFree86 or X.Org? | 11:36 |
| ogra | ari_: enable the repositority and just install sun-j2sdk1.5 with synaptic | 11:36 |
| ari_ | ogra it is 60.1 MB sun-j2sdk1.5_1.5.0_i386.deb | 11:36 |
| drspin | JDAcura: You can enable root by setting a password for it (sudo passwd root)... | 11:36 |
| JDAcura | thanks =) | 11:36 |
| vladster_ | never change your ip address when on a server ;) | 11:36 |
| HrdwrBoB | drspin: agh | 11:36 |
| neofeed | okay guys. what Filesystemto choose for my laptop? | 11:36 |
| ogra | ari_: so better take the jre then | 11:36 |
| ZzeCoOl | Doomhammer: by default warty release use Xfree | 11:36 |
| HrdwrBoB | vladster_: not never, just be careful :) | 11:36 |
| neofeed | Reiser|XSF|JFS|ext3? | 11:36 |
| Doomhammer | will Hedgehog use X.Org? | 11:36 |
| HrdwrBoB | vladster_: also, be aware that changing it will remove the default route | 11:36 |
| HrdwrBoB | Doomhammer: yes | 11:37 |
| ogra | nakeee: i think its mainly translations | 11:37 |
| ZzeCoOl | hoary allready use X.org | 11:37 |
| ari_ | so i stop to dowloaded ari_: enable the repositority and just install sun-j2sdk1.5 with synaptic | 11:37 |
| HrdwrBoB | neofeed: ext3 is fine | 11:37 |
| vladster_ | how do I disable ipV6 for the browser | 11:37 |
| ari_ | and try the one u said | 11:37 |
| drspin | HrdwrBoB: ?? | 11:37 |
| neofeed | HrdwrBoB, okay... well I ran with XFS thus far | 11:37 |
| ZzeCoOl | Doomhammer: to open the locked root account just type "sudo passwd" | 11:37 |
| HrdwrBoB | drspin: I usually point people to the doco about sudo before telling them about passwd root :) | 11:37 |
| === mroth [~mroth@mroth.user] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| HrdwrBoB | better to do it right | 11:37 |
| drspin | HrdwrBoB: I suppose that would've been good... perhaps I should tell him how to disable it again (sudo passwd -l root) I think | 11:38 |
| HrdwrBoB | yeah | 11:39 |
| JDAcura | i cant get UPDATEDB to work says could not open database - new install | 11:39 |
| HrdwrBoB | no drama.. just tryign to do things The Ubuntu Way | 11:39 |

| ogra | JDAcura: do it from a root terminal | 11:39 |
| Doomhammer | ZzeCoOl: i know how to unlock the root account, but i'm not sure i want to | 11:39 |
| vladster_ | which is a derivative of the debian way | 11:39 |
| Doomhammer | ZzeCoOl: thanks anyway | 11:39 |

| ari_ | ogra: Download the Java SDK (Debian Package 59MB) http://davyd.ucc.asn.au/projects/misc/sun-j2sdk1.5_1.5.0_i386.deb | 11:40 |
| ari_ | Install the SDK with dpkg -i sun-j2sdk1.5_1.5.0_i386.deb | 11:40 |
| ari_ | It will complain of unresolved dependancies, so apt-get install sun-j2sdk1.5debian , make sure you have multiverse in your sources.list. | 11:40 |
| drspin | JDAcura: After you are done using the root account (for whatever reason) you can lock it again by typing "sudo passwd -l root" ;) | 11:40 |
| ari_ | thoses are the instructions that i found | 11:40 |
| JDAcura | and im assuming since it doesnt work now that SSH isnt turned on or installed by defualt on a new install ? | 11:40 |
| vladster_ | or coursr if yopu want to go your own way, there is always LFS | 11:40 |

| vladster_ | sometimes a root terminal is just the crowbar that is needed | 11:43 |
| mdz | lamont: I used to use hpscanpbm back in the day (specific to certain HP scanners), now sane (which has backends for all sorts of scanners) | 11:43 |
| vladster_ | just don't try the 4600 series of USB scanners | 11:43 |

| === lamont plays with sane | ||
| HrdwrBoB | drspin: http://www.ubuntulinux.org/support/documentation/faq/root | 11:44 |
| ari_ | so i have to enter to the first one adress :http://ubuntu.tower-net.de/ubuntu/ | 11:44 |
| davmor2 | I think I'll let you do it first and find out from your results I can still do pretty much everything i want for now but you have propably been using linux longer than me | 11:44 |
| drspin | JDAcura: http://www.ubuntulinux.org/support/documentation/faq/root | 11:44 |
| drspin | JDAcura: that should explain it | 11:44 |
| vladster_ | I have a print out of the usb signal logs sniffed from windows | 11:44 |
| ogra | ari_: in synaptic.... as described in the link: AddingRepositoriesHowto | 11:44 |
| vladster_ | I just don't have the chipset | 11:45 |
| Doomhammer | so why does my MPlayer lock up when I try to open an MP4? | 11:45 |
| davmor2 | ogra I think I'll let you do it first and find out from your results I can still do pretty much everything i want for now but you have propably been using linux longer than me | 11:45 |
| ogra | davmor2: no, go on.... | 11:45 |
| ogra | davmor2: i will add my experiences later :) | 11:45 |
| Doomhammer | what do i have to do to enable MPlayer's MP4 abilities? | 11:46 |
| drspin | Doomhammer: are you sure it's not an m4p file? | 11:46 |
| davmor2 | ogra I 've only been using linux for nearly 2 months | 11:46 |
| Doomhammer | it is an mp4 | 11:46 |
| drspin | Doom: ok - | 11:46 |
| Doomhammer | well, as far as i know --- i'm not sure how to be sure what format it's in beyond it's extension and opening it up in a hex editor | 11:46 |
| ogra | davmor2: so your impressions are fresh and your laguage is not as used to weird technical terms as mine...thats a great start :) | 11:47 |
| Doomhammer | but assuming it is an MP4, how would i go about playing it? MPlayer stops responding when i try to open it | 11:47 |
| ogra | davmor2: especially for writing good documentation..... | 11:47 |
| lamont | mdz: hrm... clearly adding the scanner to some config file is the first step.. :-) | 11:47 |
| davmor2 | ogra writting is not a strong point of mine to be honest | 11:48 |
| JDAcura | i have been having a problem with starting X, says (EE) I810(0): No Video BIOS modes for chosen depth | 11:48 |
| JDAcura | but i got my modes set in XF86Config | 11:48 |
| JDAcura | and i ran xf86config again. | 11:48 |
| Doomhammer | JDAcura: you need to edit /etc/X11/XF86Config -- you set a mode that is invalid fer yer card | 11:48 |
| JDAcura | oh ok. i'll change it. mayeb thats why | 11:49 |
| Doomhammer | what color depth did you choose? 32 bit? | 11:49 |
| JDAcura | my monitor can go higher thent he card | 11:49 |
| JDAcura | no 24 | 11:49 |
| ogra | JDAcura: BIOS modes..... | 11:49 |

| Doomhammer | i want to patch mah kernel to use bootsplash | 11:51 |
| Doomhammer | so i downloaded the 2.6.9 sources and got the latest version of bootsplash for 2.6 kernels | 11:51 |
| lamont | would have helped if my wife hadn't powered off the scanner... | 11:51 |
| Doomhammer | and then i do "patch -p1 /usr/src/bootsplash-2.1.2-2.6.0-test9.diff" and it hangs.. | 11:51 |
| ogra | lol | 11:51 |
| lamont | now the next question is how do I renable a printer under cupsys? | 11:51 |
| ogra | argh.... | 11:51 |
| === lamont would like his old lpadmin friends back | ||
| JDAcura | using XF86Config-4 thats why | 11:52 |

| lamont | it's a stripped down print server | 11:53 |
| vladster_ | where do you find the settings config file for fire fox, I had it on saturday to tune the browser but lost it | 11:53 |
| ogra | lamont: hmm, there was a ML discussion how to enable the web interface for cups..... | 11:54 |
| lamont | ogra: that I _really_ don't want to do. | 11:54 |
| vladster_ | I thought it was enabled by default | 11:54 |
| Doomhammer | how do i get MPlayer to play MP4 files? | 11:55 |

| Doomhammer | man Ubuntu comes with crap multimedia apps | 11:56 |
| JDAcura | and the XF86Config says it has more in modes but i cannot change it while in X | 11:56 |
| Doomhammer | i had to install XMMS and MPlayer manually | 11:56 |
