| no0tic | khadyoung: Computer->Home->Go->CD Creation (or something similar, I have the italian version..) | 01:23 |
| JDahl | JDAcura, while you reboot, go to the BIOS and see how much onboard memory is allocated to the gfx card... try setting it to 8MB | 01:23 |
| no0tic | DonL: I've used k3b for years and it's damned simple and powerful | 01:24 |

| khadyoung | jdodson, aye | 01:28 |
| JDahl | JDAcura, I had A03 on my machine, but that version had a bug, when you changed the amount of onboard memory the changes weren't actually effective - I had to downgrade the BIOS to rev. A01, but then it worked perfectly... The bug was described on a dell forum somewhere | 01:28 |
| jdodson | i would use k3b. | 01:29 |

| khadyoung | jdodson, How has linux gone this long without simple CD recording? | 01:30 |
| Managu | well, there's xcdroast | 01:30 |

| jdodson | obsitianx: Yes. | 01:33 |
| khadyoung | jdodson, It just seems weird to me that other people seem OK with an OS that doesn't copy CDs or burn audio CDs. | 01:34 |
| Managu | ooh. Flame bait! | 01:34 |
| ObsidianX | jdodson: and all i have to do is change the get list/ | 01:34 |
| jdodson | khadyoung: the os does copy cds. | 01:34 |
| JDAcura | jdahl: oh ok thats pretty weak | 01:34 |
| khadyoung | jdodson, Not from GUI, though does it? | 01:34 |
| jdodson | khadyoung: it has for sometime, ubuntu natively just does not make it really easy to do "everything". then again neither does xp. | 01:34 |
| jdodson | khadyoung: when you mean OS, do you mean ubuntu? | 01:35 |
| ObsidianX | jdodson: the current state of linux, nothing is made to be easy | 01:35 |
| ObsidianX | you have to know what you're doing | 01:35 |
| khadyoung | jdodson, Yes, I meant Ubuntu. Sorry for any confusion | 01:35 |
| kezz | ObsidianX, mandrake is pretty n00b proof | 01:35 |
| jdodson | khadyoung: well ok, native in ubuntu you can create data cds via nautlius. | 01:35 |
| ObsidianX | kezz: i dunno, i broke mandrake pretty quickly when i was new to linux | 01:35 |
| jdodson | you can copy cds too, and right click on an iso to create a cd. | 01:36 |
| khadyoung | kezz, Mandrake is also RPM based... BLech.. | 01:36 |
| kezz | ObsidianX, which version 10.1 cos that would be impressive | 01:36 |
| mjr | khadyoung, it's because, well face it, who uses cds nowadays ;) but yeah, it's a shame and hopefully remedied in hoary | 01:36 |
| ObsidianX | RPM = teh fuxed up | 01:36 |

| jdodson | kde, however, supports CD creation a lot better. | 01:37 |
| ObsidianX | kezz: <ObsidianX> no cooker version | 01:37 |
| ObsidianX | it was stable | 01:37 |
| ObsidianX | and 10 was in cooker | 01:37 |
| mjr | khadyoung, partly; I rarely use CDs, and audio CDs almost never, and when I do, it's for ripping | 01:37 |
| ObsidianX | jdodson: K3B.. *drool* | 01:37 |
| jdub | khadyoung: we just don't have great software for doing it yet. that's the only reason why. | 01:37 |
| jdodson | so i would agree ubuntu does not support all cd creation in an easy way out of the box. | 01:38 |

| nuOpus | xhypno: again ... repeat ... are you using xorg with hoary or xfree with warty? | 02:34 |
| nuOpus | xhypno: because it DOES matter | 02:35 |
| xhypno | xfree with warty | 02:35 |
| nuOpus | are you using the fglrx that comes in the repositories? | 02:35 |

| xhypno | Yeah I installed it, but it says no device found | 02:35 |
| nuOpus | which ATI? | 02:35 |
| xhypno | ATI 340m Rad 9000 chipset in a Compaq 1516us | 02:36 |
| nuOpus | well it is EASY to get it working on anything except radeon 9000! LOL | 02:37 |
| nuOpus | wrote a post here: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=221&page=2&pp=10 | 02:37 |
| nuOpus | very easy to install fglrx from the rpms you get from the ati web site | 02:37 |
| nuOpus | try those ... maybe you will have some luck | 02:38 |
| DonL | Would he use alien, nuOpus? | 02:38 |
| JDahl | xhypno, I also have a rad 9000m chipset and got fglrx drivers working under Warty (using straightforward ubuntu wiki), but I found them to be only marginally faster than the xfree drivers | 02:38 |
| bono | ok now how do we install a printer | 02:38 |
| === Mongoose [~mongoose@user-33qt5gc.dialup.mindspring.com] has left #ubuntu ["Did] | ||
| nuOpus | problems I have had with the ATI 9000 is the bus address. If you switch to the right display you CAN get it to work without 3d accell. If you switch to OTHER one you get 3d access with no display! ARGH! | 02:39 |
| nuOpus | ya | 02:39 |
| nuOpus | then you have to cd to the modules dir and build it | 02:39 |
| jdodson | bono: type k3b in a console window | 02:39 |
| nuOpus | basically just download the RPM from the ati website and INSTALL it with alien | 02:41 |
| nuOpus | then cd /lib/modules/fglrx/build_mod | 02:41 |
| nuOpus | shen you just run make.sh by typing sh make.sh | 02:41 |
| nuOpus | then cd /lib/modules/fglrx | 02:41 |
| JDahl | nuOpus, you dont need to do any such things... it's perfectly supported from the "restricted" repositories | 02:41 |
| nuOpus | JDahl: If you like the outdated stuff | 02:41 |
| nuOpus | the one that is in restricted has major clipping problems a long with other performance issues that were later fixed | 02:41 |
| nuOpus | so .... if you want the latest driver from ATI in Warty ... you kind of have to do that | 02:41 |
| === user4 [~user4@203.134.85.20] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| nuOpus | oh ... finally sh modules_install.sh | 02:42 |
| nuOpus | then just run fglrxconfig to set it up | 02:42 |
| nuOpus | VERY good example with performance and clipping issues with the ati fglrx old ones in repo is to run Americas Army ... see how much slower the old one performs vs the new one | 02:43 |

| xhypno | thanks nuOpus | 02:45 |
| gaetano__ | there is a simple way to remove the packages installed from hoary on a warty distro? | 02:45 |
| jdodson | bono: run it in root mode. | 02:45 |
| gaetano__ | i've used apt-get and pinning | 02:45 |
| gaetano__ | to install from hoary | 02:45 |
| gaetano__ | now i wanna remove this packages... | 02:45 |
| nuOpus | which packages? | 02:46 |
| gaetano__ | mozilla-thunderbird | 02:46 |
| bono | cant it be run as a normal user?? | 02:46 |
| nuOpus | just apt-get --purge remove mozilla-thunderbird | 02:46 |
| jdodson | bono: i havent gotten it to. | 02:46 |
| gaetano__ | nuOpus: and the deps? | 02:46 |
| neuro_ | oof | 02:47 |
| neuro_ | don't forget the "will delete your user data" caveat with --purge | 02:47 |
| gaetano__ | neuro_: oh yes, but how to remove the deps too? | 02:47 |
| bono | ok thanks | 02:47 |
| === bkuebler [~bkuebler@68.80.68.207] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| nuOpus | well | 02:47 |
| nuOpus | just type apt-cache depends mozilla-thunderbird | 02:48 |
| bono | if i want to run it from an icon how would i run it from there as root | 02:48 |
| nuOpus | but you do not want to remove all of the dependencies | 02:48 |
| nuOpus | because its dependencies may be used by other programs. For example .. dont remove xlibs | 02:48 |
| gaetano__ | right, only the one upgraded from hoary | 02:49 |
| nuOpus | BUT. Here is a tip. apt-get install debfoster | 02:49 |
| DonL | What's that?? | 02:49 |
| xhypno | what is debfoster??? | 02:49 |
| xhypno | never heard of it | 02:49 |
| nuOpus | when you run it for first time it asks you what packages you want to "keep" and groups a lot of the dependencies together .. you say yes or no | 02:49 |
| nuOpus | and at the end it cleans house on all of the apps you said no to | 02:50 |
| nuOpus | next time you run debfoster it will ONLY ask you for the NEW packaages you installed | 02:50 |
| gaetano__ | ah ok, maybe this will clean my warty from the hoary pkgs | 02:50 |
| nuOpus | so I run debfoster after I install | 02:50 |
| DonL | Wow. Sounds like a really good tool | 02:50 |
| nuOpus | then when I go to install lots of programs I run debfoster again at intervals and tell it to keep some of the new ones | 02:50 |
| gaetano__ | nuOpus: ok thanks, i try with debfoster | 02:51 |
| nuOpus | that way if you dont like ANY of the new packages you just debfoster and say NO to everything | 02:51 |
| nuOpus | really quick ... keeps it clean | 02:51 |

| nuOpus | ya | 02:52 |

| HrdwrBoB | in any case if you're talking about webmin | 03:49 |
| HrdwrBoB | you're on crack | 03:49 |
| HrdwrBoB | webmin has it's own independant user database | 03:49 |
| nuOpus | no webmin is a security hole | 03:49 |
| HrdwrBoB | ok | 03:49 |
| nuOpus | I mean things like driverloader | 03:49 |
| occular | Nice don't-touch-anything distro. I might install that for my parents. Now, on to more serious stuff. -shrugs- | 03:49 |
| nuOpus | it is expecting a rood auth | 03:49 |
| HrdwrBoB | yes, because it's a hack | 03:49 |
| nuOpus | I was simply saying that for lots of instances you must enable root | 03:49 |
| HrdwrBoB | no | 03:49 |
| HrdwrBoB | for a VERY FEW *SPECIFIC* instances | 03:50 |
| HrdwrBoB | you must enable root | 03:50 |
| nuOpus | then I would love to see you get driverloader working without it | 03:50 |
| HrdwrBoB | why | 03:50 |
| nuOpus | ok | 03:50 |
| HrdwrBoB | just use ndiswrapper | 03:50 |

| bkuebler | I will sudo -l root when I am done setting the box up. | 03:53 |
| nuOpus | I use sudo | 03:53 |
| nuOpus | I was simply answering someones question about enabling the root account | 03:53 |
| nuOpus | all I said was that there are instances where you HAVE to enable it | 03:54 |
| HrdwrBoB | you said there are many | 03:54 |
| nuOpus | but I typically unlock the account ... use the app then lock it again | 03:54 |
| HrdwrBoB | so far we've got to one | 03:54 |
| nuOpus | webin and swat | 03:54 |
| nuOpus | even though I dont use them .... other people do | 03:54 |
| xhypno | I use sudo all the time, it is the best way to access the system as root and log exactly what is done | 03:54 |
| nuOpus | webmin | 03:54 |
| HrdwrBoB | nuOpus: it doesn't make sudo a bad idea | 03:54 |
| HrdwrBoB | which you seem to think it is | 03:55 |
| HrdwrBoB | sudo is a much better way to manage the system | 03:55 |
| nuOpus | I never said it was a bad idea | 03:55 |
| HrdwrBoB | it makes a hell of a lot more sense to people for one | 03:55 |
| HrdwrBoB | most people have enough trouble remembering ONE password | 03:55 |
| nuOpus | I mierly said that sudo does not cut the mustard in some cases | 03:55 |
| nuOpus | well ... for new users I would not show them how to edit the text file. I would show them swat or webmin-samba | 03:56 |
| nuOpus | and for those cases you have to enable it | 03:56 |
| nevyn | ummm.. doesn't ubuntu ship with tools for configureing samba ? | 03:57 |
| HrdwrBoB | yes | 03:57 |
| nevyn | like gui things. | 03:57 |
| HrdwrBoB | yes it does | 03:57 |
| HrdwrBoB | and webmin does not need root enables | 03:57 |
| HrdwrBoB | enabled | 03:57 |
| xhypno | I wouldn't suggest editing a txt file to most exp people I know, unfortunately, most people overlook the little things | 03:57 |
| HrdwrBoB | swat and driverloader are both broken | 03:57 |
| HrdwrBoB | swat is well known to be broken | 03:58 |
| HrdwrBoB | driverloader is a hack | 03:58 |
| HrdwrBoB | it's a special case | 03:58 |
| stuNNed | anyone have xorg spike cpu usage constant? | 03:58 |
| HrdwrBoB | it's not 'everyday' | 03:58 |

| daniels | probably the nvidia driver being broken | 03:59 |
| nuOpus | that is just to get it installed | 03:59 |

| === bvc [~bvc@cs6710169-75.houston.rr.com] has left #ubuntu ["Leaving"] | ||
| HrdwrBoB | "dldrconfig" command can also be used to change certain configuration options or recompile (generic packages only) the kernel modules after installation or kernel upgrades. Run "dldrconfig --help" for usage information. | 04:00 |
| HrdwrBoB | If you wish to disable the web configurator for security reasons, you can do so with "dldrconfig --webconf=off". To re-enable it, use "dldrconfig --webconf=127.0.0.1:18020". | 04:00 |
| HrdwrBoB | sorry apste | 04:00 |
| nuOpus | ya but not specify the inf | 04:00 |
| crimsun | nuOpus: so using `gksudo mozilla-firefox' will fail? | 04:00 |
| HrdwrBoB | but it doesn't look like you HAVE to use the web based interface | 04:00 |
| nuOpus | no it will not | 04:00 |
| nuOpus | you have to | 04:00 |
| === bvc [~bvc@cs6710169-75.houston.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| HrdwrBoB | nuOpus: ok then, driverloader is a retarded piece of garbage | 04:01 |
| nuOpus | look on there ... it says nothig in syntax or with switch that lets you specify location of the .inf file or its files | 04:01 |
| nuOpus | it works much better than ndiswrapper | 04:01 |
| nomasteryoda | setite, you there? | 04:01 |
| crimsun | nuOpus: am I correct in presuming that once `gksudo mozilla-firefox' is executed, the configuration will progress successfully? | 04:02 |
| HrdwrBoB | I don't need a browser for ndiswrapper | 04:02 |
| nevyn | that's horrific. | 04:02 |
| crimsun | what's horrific? | 04:02 |
| nuOpus | so ... you guys are of oppinion to NEVER EVER enable root ... and for apps that REQUIRE root .. that it is crap and never use it? | 04:02 |
| nevyn | having to run a browser of any description let alone MOZILLA as root is broken | 04:02 |
| nuOpus | yes ... but ndiswrapper has problems that driverloader does not | 04:02 |
| nomasteryoda | nu0pus, how much better? | 04:03 |
| crimsun | nevyn: I agree, and I'm attempting to see where sudo will fail for driverloader | 04:03 |
| nuOpus | I am of oppinion that you never use root unless you need to in cases like driverloader, webmin, swat or others ... and if you are done .. just lock it | 04:03 |
| HrdwrBoB | nuOpus: requiring a web interface for a network driver is like requiring a plane to start your car | 04:03 |
| nomasteryoda | HrdwrBoB, yes | 04:03 |
| nuOpus | ummm o | 04:03 |
| nuOpus | no | 04:03 |
| nuOpus | since you dont need the network interface to install it | 04:03 |
| nomasteryoda | like using the Start Button to shutdown your winders..hehe | 04:03 |
| nuOpus | it is on the local interface | 04:03 |
| HrdwrBoB | nomasteryoda: no inf is like not installed | 04:03 |
| nuOpus | but you still need the browser | 04:03 |
| HrdwrBoB | it's still a web interface | 04:04 |
| nomasteryoda | HrdwrBoB, ok | 04:04 |
| nevyn | nuOpus: nope. but that there are so many local and remote security issues associated with running a desktop as root that it's best avoided | 04:04 |
| nuOpus | that has nothing to do with wireless drivers | 04:04 |
| nomasteryoda | i use ndiswrapper here | 04:04 |
| nomasteryoda | on suse | 04:04 |
| nomasteryoda | bcm network card | 04:04 |
| nevyn | there are good technical reasons for ubuntu to not set a root password by default. | 04:04 |

| === Mirno [~mirspcm@81.56.180.71] has joined #ubuntu | ||

| HrdwrBoB | nomasteryoda: yeah I use ndiswrapper too | 04:05 |
| nuOpus | I know ... I said that you only enable it for specific reasons and you lock it after you are done | 04:05 |
| nomasteryoda | HrdwrBoB, it's not pretty, but it works | 04:05 |
| HrdwrBoB | precisely | 04:05 |
| nuOpus | driverloader does work a lot better than ndiswrapper though | 04:05 |
| nomasteryoda | and I can use a USB card for kismet or similar | 04:05 |
| nuOpus | Like ... on the BCM on my laptop I can actually configure the driver specific options like bursting and turning on powersave mode | 04:06 |
| HrdwrBoB | nuOpus: I'm sure it does | 04:06 |

| nevyn | that can also be provided as authentication to the web interface | 04:10 |
| MobyTurbo | HrdwrBoB, what is driverloader? | 04:10 |

| HrdwrBoB | it's not for win-hardware | 04:13 |

| nuOpus | but I have it on my laptop | 04:13 |
| HrdwrBoB | same for the soruce drivers | 04:13 |
| nuOpus | but it works great in driverloader | 04:13 |
| nuOpus | I can understand though why broadcom does not release source for their drivers | 04:14 |
| nomasteryoda | nuopus, true about 100%.. on the wlan it always stays that way | 04:14 |
| nomasteryoda | yea | 04:14 |
| nomasteryoda | too tight with their code | 04:14 |
| nomasteryoda | or IP | 04:14 |
| nuOpus | nomasteryoda: Yes ... ndiswrapper does not properly do signal strength or configure ANY driver specifi options | 04:14 |
| wasabi | I'm looking for a text viewing program that will let me highlight certain lines matching a pattern in colors... trying to sort through a 2 year old IRC log... ;) | 04:14 |
| nomasteryoda | nuOpus, so i am using a kde tool do that | 04:15 |
| nomasteryoda | and it works fine | 04:15 |
| nuOpus | nomasteryoda: Example is with the bcm ... with driverloader I can actually turn bursing on ... and toggle the powersaving features | 04:15 |
| nomasteryoda | pretty cool | 04:15 |
| nuOpus | there are LOTS of options for the bcm that let you tweak performance and power saving features | 04:15 |
| nomasteryoda | sure | 04:15 |
| nomasteryoda | i'll wait on a new driver for it... | 04:16 |

| kebac | netbsd is the only BSD left that uses ipf | 04:29 |
| kebac | it will move to PF too | 04:29 |
| MobyTurbo | kebac, PF has been already ported to nbsd, it's just not the default. | 04:29 |
| kebac | MobyTurbo: i know | 04:29 |
| xhypno | netbsd is not | 04:29 |

| xhypno | no they are based off of BSDi | 04:30 |
| MobyTurbo | xhypno, also the company that made BSDI is disolved | 04:30 |
| MobyTurbo | xhypno, they are based on 386BSD which is based on 44lite. | 04:31 |

| xhypno | someone mentioned a way to use the ATI rpm, but I haven't tried it yet | 04:36 |
| skreet | nuOpus: 9800 Non-Pro | 04:36 |
| MobyTurbo | xhypno, I just searched the SCO website and BSDI has only one entry, which has nothing to do with selling it. | 04:36 |
| stuNNed | daniels, why the negativity in the topic? why not something like: unofficial http://ubuntuguide.org/ | 04:36 |
| poningru | well whats the boot command code to do that? | 04:36 |
| nuOpus | you need fglrx for that. There is one in repos ... but it is ancient version and will not work very well with cedega | 04:36 |
| MobyTurbo | xhypno, I also searched google, and all it mentioned was the old AT&T lawsuit | 04:37 |
| daniels | stuNNed: why which negativity? | 04:37 |
| nuOpus | the clipping problems will annoy you | 04:37 |
| stuNNed | daniels, the flamewars offtopicness | 04:37 |
| daniels | nuOpus: the fglrx version in hoary is the latest version available; the one in warty was the latest at the time. | 04:37 |
| HrdwrBoB | skreet: http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/BinaryDriverHowto | 04:37 |
| nuOpus | the latest one is what fixed clipping issues | 04:37 |
| daniels | stuNNed: because it comes up once or twice every day, and i'm sick of it. it is offtopic in #ubuntu. | 04:37 |
| skreet | nuOpus: Am I SOL for gaming? | 04:37 |
| nuOpus | and that is 3.14.6 | 04:37 |

| stuNNed | daniels, ah ok, didn't know, sorry about that, thanks | 04:37 |
| nuOpus | even in hoary | 04:38 |
| skreet | nuOpus: I just installed ubuntu because I heard that WineX evolved again and I wanted to see if I can game on it yet.. :D | 04:38 |
| poningru | see I dont need ubuntu for gaming | 04:38 |
| poningru | just for school work | 04:38 |
| nuOpus | skreet ... from what I have seen from the fglrx drivers... they all work like CRAP unless you get 3.14.6 which makes it look OK | 04:38 |
| skreet | I dont need it for gaming either, but I prefer linux over windows, I like the control. | 04:38 |

| skreet | nuOpus: I have an MX4000 128MB card I could be using, but It's such an underperformer compared tot he 9800np | 04:45 |

| nuOpus | skreet: because to patch your kernel for 16k stacks you will have to re-compile your kernel | 04:47 |
| skreet | nuOpus: I bet but I'm a stickler for performance. | 04:47 |
| skreet | nuOpus: I built my kernel when I had gentoo, a year and a half ago. :P | 04:47 |

| luc1f3r | bob2: 80gigs and 160gigs. I'd prefer programs and OS's to be on the 80 gig drive, and most important files on the 160 gig | 05:05 |

| luc1f3r | bob2: so how much fat32 or ntfs would you recomend me to partition on an 80 gig drive? | 05:08 |
| luc1f3r | bob2: just to be safe so I don't run out of space for programs on windows | 05:09 |
| bob2 | I don't know what you want to do | 05:09 |
| bob2 | if you want to move some text files, 1GB is enormous | 05:09 |
| bob2 | if you're sharing your warez, 1TB might not be enough | 05:09 |
| bob2 | I don't know how much space windows wants these days...10GB? | 05:09 |
| xhypno | using the exp modules in the latest unstable kernel from kernel.org, you can setup linux to write to NTFS, I am using it on my slack system and can't wait for a deb release | 05:09 |
| bob2 | captive-ntfs? | 05:10 |

| Wadi | hola | 06:30 |
| Wadi | hi | 06:30 |
| Wadi | alguien | 06:30 |
| Wadi | any one | 06:30 |
| Wadi | I have problems installing Ubuntu | 06:30 |
| ml267 | describe probs | 06:31 |
| Wadi | could anyone help me? | 06:31 |
| Wadi | once i have installed Ubuntu, when it should charge Gnome, the monitor stays black | 06:31 |
| Wadi | (sorry for my english) | 06:32 |
| ml267 | but your virtual console works? | 06:32 |
| Wadi | yes, when i enter in the recovery mode | 06:32 |
| ml267 | what's your video card and monitor? | 06:32 |
| alka_trash | hoary or warty | 06:32 |
| Wadi | my video car is TNT2 Riva 32Mb, and the monitor is a philips 17es | 06:33 |
| Wadi | warty, i think | 06:33 |
| Wadi | (i really dont know the diference) | 06:33 |
| alka_trash | then it would be warty | 06:33 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | the ubuntu installer should make it easy for me to not fry my /home partition right? | 06:34 |
| alka_trash | it considered stable | 06:34 |
| jdub | BROKEN_LADDER: yeah, just don't choose "eat my entire disk", which is the first option :) parition manually | 06:34 |
| ml267 | when monitor stays black, you can probably use ctrl-alt-F1 to get to your virtual console | 06:34 |
| Wadi | yok, i try, and then? | 06:35 |
| ml267 | Wadi: have other linux distributions worked for you in the past? | 06:35 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | lol | 06:35 |
| ml267 | Wadi: what installation method are you using? | 06:35 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | "eat my entire disc" eh? | 06:35 |
| alka_trash | BROKEN_LADDER: remember hda is disk one // hda1 is disk one part one /// hdb2 is disk 2 part 2 | 06:35 |
| Wadi | i tryed to install Mandrake 10.1, but i had hdlist description prolbem and i didnt know how to solve it | 06:35 |
| Wadi | for stupids like me | 06:36 |
| method55 | should i be using an antivirus when using a linux machine? | 06:36 |
| Wadi | I installed red hat 7.1 once | 06:36 |
| Wadi | and it worked fine | 06:36 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | lol | 06:36 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | virus? | 06:37 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | just don't run stupid things as root. | 06:37 |
| method55 | okay..i didn't know (new to linux) i'm not worried about my end, and i dont run as root, but i do quite a bit of email exchanging with windows users...i dont want to catch anything from them | 06:37 |
| neuro_ | "stupid things"? | 06:37 |
| dataw0lf | the only reason you would run anti-virus software on a linux machine is if you were routing windows machines from it | 06:37 |
| alka_trash | method55: I don't know anyone that has ever got one on linux | 06:37 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | method55: are you being funny on purpose? | 06:37 |
| dataw0lf | I do. | 06:37 |
| method55 | didn't know...thank you | 06:37 |
| dataw0lf | it was called the first worm. | 06:38 |
| method55 | no im just a noob | 06:38 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | heh..k | 06:38 |
| alka_trash | method55: all good | 06:38 |
| neuro_ | dataw0lf: you mean the '88 worm? | 06:38 |
| dataw0lf | Indeed I do. | 06:38 |
| neuro_ | which preceded Linux's existence? | 06:38 |
| method55 | linux is all new to me ;) liked it so far on this computer so i am going to be putting it on my laptop | 06:38 |
| dataw0lf | you want to bet that a POSIX compliant virus would run on linux? | 06:38 |
| dataw0lf | because that's what that worm was. | 06:38 |

| dataw0lf | And there are linux viruses. | 06:39 |
| neuro_ | would be interesting as you'd have to port the older vulnerable versions of sendmail | 06:39 |
| dataw0lf | but they don't propagate nor have the same affect as Windows viruses. | 06:39 |
| neuro_ | are you saying worm != virus? | 06:39 |
| ml267 | Wadi: if you have a live-cd for ubuntu, you can see if that one brings up gnome ok | 06:40 |
| Wadi | how can i run gnome when im in a console mode? | 06:40 |
| dataw0lf | neuro_: no, I'm saying there are existing viruses that run on the Linux platform. | 06:40 |
| ml267 | Wadi: I'm not sure.. maybe "startx" | 06:40 |
| Wadi | yes, im downloading it | 06:40 |
| Wadi | for second time | 06:40 |
| neuro_ | dataw0lf: if you're happy with the definition of "virus" to include worms, then they certainly do propogate | 06:41 |
| dataw0lf | neuro_: But, as I said earlier, it's not worth installing anti-virus software unless you are routing to Windows machines. | 06:41 |
| Wadi | Mandrake move didnt work too | 06:41 |
| neuro_ | cf santy | 06:41 |
| alka_trash | method55: you can install aegis from apt-get : http://jodrell.net/projects/aegis looks pretty cool | 06:41 |
| neuro_ | depends what you mean by "anti-virus" | 06:41 |
| neuro_ | mod_security is pretty good at defending against worm incursion | 06:41 |
| ml267 | Wadi: after you log in to your console, you can use "ps x" to see if your xserver is running | 06:41 |
| method55 | not sure how to install yet either haha...the only 'installing' i have done is with the synaptic manager thing | 06:41 |
| dataw0lf | anti-virus software: a app that recognizes various types of viruses based on footprints, file usage, etc. | 06:41 |
| dataw0lf | I can give you the Wiki link if you'd like. | 06:42 |
| neuro_ | i'd say that covers mod_security, snort, guardian, et al | 06:42 |
| method55 | ? | 06:42 |
| ml267 | Wadi: if it's not running, you can try to "startx" | 06:42 |
| Wadi | and if it is? | 06:42 |
| dataw0lf | neuro_: Not exactly. | 06:42 |
| ml267 | Wadi: and if it fails, you can take a look at the errors in the log that it leaves in your directly | 06:42 |

| Wadi | (what's that?) | 06:44 |
| Wadi | (the x server...?) | 06:44 |
| ml267 | Wadi: it's the graphics system | 06:45 |
| neuro_ | i'm just saying the traditional notion of anti-virus software as found in the windows paradigm need not necessarily apply to more ... useful operating systems :) | 06:45 |
| dataw0lf | neuro_: you mean less popular OSes. | 06:45 |
| Wadi | ok, i'll make an effort | 06:45 |
| ml267 | Wadi: look on the ubuntulinux site for the manual.. | 06:45 |
| dataw0lf | because that's one of the main reasons you aren't going to see nearly as many viruses. | 06:45 |
| neuro_ | hell, you could probably define SELinux as anti-virus | 06:45 |
| neuro_ | well, natch | 06:45 |
| ml267 | Wadi: i'm pretty new to ubuntu too | 06:45 |
| method55 | if virus's arent a big concern then i wont bother with it | 06:46 |
| method55 | im fairly careful at what i do on my machines | 06:46 |
| neuro_ | but that's like saying concordes were the safest planes in the world because they only crashed once | 06:46 |

| skreet | Well in windows I open my game, and my teamspeak, and they work. :D | 07:21 |
| Linuxnoob | nervn -been fighting it for a week | 07:21 |
| skreet | I dont have to configure *anything* | 07:21 |
| skreet | because window shas one sound system, itself. | 07:21 |
| skreet | ya know? | 07:21 |
| Linuxnoob | yep | 07:21 |
| skreet | too many options dont *always* make things better. | 07:21 |
| jdub | well, that's not really true | 07:21 |
| skreet | Anyway, how would I go about setting up arts | 07:21 |
| jdub | windows has three sound systems or apis | 07:21 |
| nevyn | skreet: I know. and windows has some nice stuff. but in serious computer use windows and *nix are quite similar really | 07:21 |
| jdub | skreet: you're better off using esd | 07:21 |
| nevyn | often windows is more painful. | 07:21 |
| skreet | jdub: I cant get my two programs to share sound, and nevyn said there would be latency if i used a wrapper | 07:22 |
| nevyn | jdub: none of those api's prevent audio comming from another api. | 07:22 |
| nevyn | skreet: I said it would increase latency | 07:22 |
| nevyn | but you'll basically have to live with it. | 07:22 |
| skreet | I dont want to live with it :D | 07:22 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | can anyone give me the name of a server into which i can try to ssh, just to see whether ssh works? | 07:22 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | i don't need to log in or anything :) | 07:22 |
| nevyn | skreet: you havn't even tested it yet. | 07:22 |
| jdub | skreet: you'll be using a wrapper. the latency issue is minor. | 07:23 |
| skreet | Good point, I'm just taking some guy on IRCs word for it. | 07:23 |
| method55 | question: do i need to partitian my drive before i setup the dual boot or will it do it when i install ubuntu? | 07:23 |

| skreet | And uh.. I cant have the best on both. | 07:52 |
| xed | skreet: dual boot. | 07:52 |
| Keemy | my point is , they could easily write them, but don't so people buy new | 07:52 |
| nevyn | skreet: lots of gamers dual boot. | 07:53 |
| skreet | xed: Yes, but I dont like shutting down. | 07:53 |

| bwb | hi.. any tips for improving hd performance? I get like 15MB/s unbuffered read... could perhaps having two drives on the same ide cable hurt performance a bit, or is it mostly based on RPM's of the drive? | 07:53 |
| xed | skreet: I have the same issue, so I've given up gaming. | 07:53 |
| nevyn | play free games? | 07:53 |
| dataw0lf | jdub: well, actually, it is still censorship. | 07:53 |
| nevyn | xed: likewise. | 07:53 |
| jdub | Keemy: 'easily'? writing drivers for a (currently) niche operating system doesn't have a huge return on investment. | 07:53 |
| skreet | Also, for some reason when I have a linux desktop with firefox, gaim and mplayer, and i have a windows desktop with WoW, CS:S, Half Life 2, gaim, firefox and Media Player Classic... I really dont feel like waiting 7 minutes to go online. | 07:53 |
| skreet | All the software I use on linux is available for windows and I keep on my windows desktops as well | 07:53 |
| skreet | So I *never* go back. | 07:54 |
| skreet | :P | 07:54 |
| jdub | dataw0lf: whatever you want to call it, it would be appreciated if you behave appropriately. | 07:54 |
| Poprocks | ok I'm hitting the sack, later all | 07:54 |
| xed | skreet: why go linux at all then? | 07:54 |
| dataw0lf | jdub: I can call it censorship though. | 07:54 |
| skreet | I like the console. | 07:54 |
| skreet | :D | 07:54 |
| xed | .. | 07:54 |
| Keemy | i came to linux because i didn't want to spend money to buy XP... if i have to buy a modem it defeats the purpose.. it's a matter of principle | 07:54 |
| nevyn | skreet: colinux ;) | 07:54 |
| dataw0lf | jdub: Unless that's censored too. | 07:54 |
| skreet | Powerful. | 07:54 |
| jdub | dataw0lf: get over it, or leave. | 07:55 |
| zenrox | Keemy, so what its the price you pay for using linux | 07:55 |
| xed | skreet: lacking power elsewhere? =P | 07:55 |
| dataw0lf | jdub: then I can just call it c***orship | 07:55 |
| zenrox | and the modems are cheap enuf | 07:55 |
| dataw0lf | jdub: Ok, I'll agree with your c***orship | 07:55 |
| skreet | Cost of hardware modem < Cost of Retail O/S | 07:55 |
| nevyn | skreet: you assume people actually follow licence agreements for software | 07:56 |
| jdub | Keemy: generally, the matter of principle associated with FOSS is not that of 'cheapness'. :) | 07:56 |
| skreet | nevyn: I know they dont. | 07:56 |
| Keemy | it is for me | 07:56 |
| nevyn | now now.. frugalness is a component to most peoples inital introduction to FOSS | 07:56 |

| neuro_ | we (smoothwall types) managed to get em to gpl drivers for some of their usb adsl stuff | 07:58 |

| jdub | Keemy: keep in mind that it may not be their code to release. | 07:58 |
| neuro_ | might be worth poking them again about their softmodems if it's enough of an issue | 07:58 |

| method55 | when i partition my HD for a windows/linux dualboot, my first partition is formatted NTFS, should i leave my other partition unallocated then install ubuntu or should i format it something? | 07:59 |

| JDahl | method55, then that's probably fine... although 28 gigs for linux (if you dont plan on using it much) sounds like a lot | 08:02 |
| Keemy | will it automatically set up a linux swap partition? | 08:02 |
| method55 | i can format the unallocated to be a linux swap | 08:02 |
| JDahl | that's an awful lot of gnu software | 08:02 |
| method55 | that is an option in partition magic | 08:02 |

| method55 | well i all ready have windows installed on this computer and it would be a good 14gigs to back up all my vital stuff | 08:04 |

| jdub | linux will safely read ntfs, but not safely write it | 08:05 |
| method55 | what about the other way around? | 08:05 |
| jdub | you can get filesystem plugins for xp that'll read/write ext3 | 08:05 |
| JDahl | method55, just split the 28 gigs for linux into two partions, and make one of those fat32 | 08:05 |
| Keemy | windows won't recognize linux partitions | 08:05 |
| dataw0lf | Sure it will. | 08:05 |

| esher | unrar x foo.rar | 09:49 |
| bassinboy | crimsun: thanks | 09:49 |
| zerok | unrar should be in the universe-repository | 09:49 |
| TheMuso | xed: What you have to do is to go into Synaptec and enable the multiverse repository, and then update the repository data. Then search for unrar-nonfree | 09:49 |

| xed | TheMuso, alright, I'll look into it | 09:50 |
| crimsun | xed: if the rars were created with winrar 3.x, you'll need to use 'rar' from the 'multiverse' repo | 09:50 |
| crimsun | xed: the syntax is `rar e foo.rar' | 09:50 |

| Ensiferum | has anyone been able to install on ubuntu on a SATA machine? | 10:09 |
| zenrox | method55, just do a sudo mount -a | 10:09 |
| TheMuso | But it is better to log out and in if you want to be able to go into the computer window in GNOME and double click on it. | 10:09 |
| zenrox | TheMuso, not true | 10:09 |
| TheMuso | As GNOME reads /etc/fstab every log-in | 10:09 |
| method55 | zenrox: i did that, but will it show in Computer > Disks | 10:09 |
| method55 | ? | 10:09 |
| xed | Thanks a lot for the help, crimsun and TheMuso | 10:09 |
| method55 | i tried logging out and back in | 10:09 |
| method55 | doesnt show it | 10:09 |
| xed | Time for some sleepage | 10:09 |
| TheMuso | zenrox: I have had to do that. | 10:09 |
| zenrox | method55, it will be in /mnt/windows | 10:09 |
| method55 | so /mnt/windows is that partition? | 10:10 |
| zenrox | yes | 10:10 |
| method55 | is there a way i can manually add that to the computer window | 10:10 |
| method55 | ? | 10:10 |
| method55 | in gnome under Computer > Disks | 10:10 |
| zenrox | method55, you can make a link to /mnt/windows | 10:10 |

| ingful | ok | 12:31 |
| ingful | erhm ....... why cant the search-command of gnome search recursive ? | 12:32 |
| trey3 | ingful: it can | 12:32 |
| ingful | or i there an option | 12:32 |
| ingful | ? | 12:32 |
| trey3 | Look in folder "Filesystem" not "Home" | 12:32 |
| ingful | i looked i "/" | 12:33 |
| ingful | i = in | 12:33 |
| trey3 | It should have searched recursively :/ | 12:33 |
| trey3 | I guess I just found a change in 2.9 though 8) | 12:33 |

| izmaelis | hi there | 12:34 |
| izmaelis | when going through installing Gentoo by Gentoo Handbook I did genkernel --clean --mrproper --install all, after I boot to new kernel I can't see my system booting (although it does boot). Text message that appear during bootup are "smashed" and penguin logo is "smashed" in upper left corner too. | 12:34 |
| ogra | ingful: if you use / as search option the search is done with locate (which is totally independent from the filesys) | 12:34 |

| ogra | ingful: if you use any other path to search, the search is done with find....which uses the filesystem and does the search recursive | 12:35 |
| ingful | where do i find the fstab-config-file if my search fails ?! =) | 12:35 |
| trey3 | ingful: /etc/fstab | 12:35 |
| ingful | oh | 12:35 |
| ingful | ok .. thanx | 12:35 |
| ogra | sulkd: does it have the users option ? | 12:35 |
| sulkd | ogra: yep the "user" one | 12:36 |
| ingful | thanx flies to trey3 and ogra and all others that helped me ...... i'm trying what i learned now | 12:36 |
| sulkd | might be a hoary thing | 12:36 |
| ogra | izmaelis: wrong channel, try #gentoo ;) | 12:36 |
| ogra | sulkd: hmm, so it should show up there...show the line from fstab for the drive...is it ntfs or vfat ? | 12:37 |
| sulkd | ntfs | 12:37 |
| ingful | bye | 12:37 |
| trey3 | ingful: later | 12:38 |
| sulkd | /dev/sda1 /mnt/windows ntfs defaults,auto,user,uid=1000,gid=1000 0 0 | 12:38 |
| ogra | sulkd: then it also needs the ro option and a umask | 12:38 |
| ogra | sulkd: and you should remove the defaults there | 12:38 |
| sulkd | ro is default for ntfs | 12:38 |
| ogra | sulkd: i know... | 12:38 |
| sulkd | well.. options are applied left to right so the defaults should just initialize and the others override | 12:39 |
| ogra | sulkd: first remove the defaults.....add a umask option....and add ro | 12:39 |
| sulkd | I don't need a umask option.. umask is the mode mask for file creation.. ntfs is readonly | 12:39 |

| sulkd | ogra: well it might but I still don't see how that inhibits hal from recognizing my mountpoint | 12:41 |
| ogra | sulkd: probably because ahl has nothing to do with it ;) | 12:42 |

| jetsaredim | question | 03:29 |
| pe7er | "ATI vs nVidia flamewars are offtopic." lol :) | 03:29 |
| stuNNed_ | wood1, um there is info on wiki about it and you need to apt-key add marillat's key or something, unless you use synaptic, then you can just ignore the gpg error. | 03:29 |
| jetsaredim | i'm not familiar with debian, but where do i set the dhcpcd options for an interface | 03:29 |
| stuNNed_ | jetsaredim, dhclient interface should just do it, like dhclient eth0 or dhclient ath0 | 03:30 |
| kent | jetsaredim, in the desktop choose System->System Settings -> network. | 03:30 |
| jetsaredim | well - that just sets an interface to get a dhcp address | 03:31 |
| stuNNed_ | jetsaredim, then what mr kent says :) | 03:31 |
| jetsaredim | but i want to set dhcpcd options such that it doesn't overwrite resolv.conf | 03:31 |

| zooko | greetings, people of Ubuntu! | 03:40 |
| zooko | are there torrents for Warty Warthog ISOs? | 03:40 |
| === bassinboy [~jared@user-0cet1rr.cable.mindspring.com] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| pe7er | er. yes. | 03:41 |
| zooko | I *could* just use FTP, but that is so 20th century. | 03:41 |
| bassinboy | my ubuntu locked up.... how can i find out what's wrong? | 03:41 |
| zooko | Also last time I d/l'ed warty the BT d/l was much faster than the FTP. | 03:41 |
| zooko | bassinboy: can you ssh into it from another computer? | 03:42 |
| zooko | lock-ups are often due to the X server, and the underlying system apart from the X server is still working. | 03:42 |
| zooko | Where is a .torrent file for Warty? | 03:42 |
| zooko | I've looked at http://www.ubuntulinux.com/download/ | 03:42 |
| bassinboy | zooko: good idea, but i just restarted it | 03:42 |
| zooko | I've also googled. | 03:42 |
| zooko | bassinboy: okay, look in your system log files. | 03:43 |
| zooko | I think the main one to inspect is /var/log/syslog | 03:43 |
| bassinboy | zooko: what to look for? | 03:43 |
| zooko | the most recent stuff in your syslog will be things written during the boot-up. | 03:44 |
| zooko | look immediately before that reboot. | 03:44 |
| zooko | typically there will either be nothing unusual, or else noticeable warnings about things going wrong. | 03:44 |
| zooko | You might also look in the X server log. That's, um, I forget. | 03:44 |
| zooko | /var/log/X-something? | 03:44 |
| hannes__ | or very intresting error messages | 03:44 |
| bassinboy | zooko: theres nothing before the last boot up | 03:45 |
| zooko | lockups are almost certainly due to one of the following: (a) X server locked up, (b) hardware problem e.g. power brownout, defective motherboard, lightning strike, (c) user is confused e.g. everything was working except that your mouse came unplugged or something. | 03:45 |
| hannes__ | like the one I ot on every boot with debian, "usb-audio: No idea what's going on... Contact usb-devel@lists.sourceforge.net" :D | 03:46 |
| zooko | bassinboy: okay, this doesn't really tell us anything. The problem could still be one of the three I mentioned. | 03:46 |

| dud | how come this prelinger mpeg2 movie is viewable in xine, but not mplayer? | 03:48 |
| zooko | bassinboy: oh, so the log got rotated just now? Look for /var/log/syslog.0 or some such file. | 03:48 |

| prox2far | xed: ACPI should be installed by default ( in warty ) and if your CPU is an Mobile cpu it should adjust automaticly | 08:30 |
| xed | JDahl, no, I just want something that'll make less use of the overall resources (ie lowers the processor speed usage when on battery power) | 08:30 |
| fuldl | why does it work to "#include <vector.h>" but "#include <vector>" doesnt work | 08:32 |
| xed | http://himi.org/wmacpi/ <-- I just got that link from a friend ..he got it from google.. ..I'm curious, would that work on ubuntu? | 08:33 |
| JDahl | xed, I just tried unplugging my AC power like prox2far suggested, and it automatically saves power... it probably works for you also. But, yes, there is an Ubuntu package for wmacpi | 08:35 |
| prox2far | xed, but wmacpi is only a monitor :( doesn't change anything | 08:35 |

| sensebend | I thought VMWare was closed proprietary software | 10:22 |
| apes | sensebend, well you need to drop the binary into /usr/portage/distfiles | 10:23 |
| Poprocks | sensebend, cvs doesn't contain a lot of the stuff that the commercial builds do afaik | 10:23 |
| xed | Poprocks, its the equivalent of backspace? | 10:23 |
| apes | but portage still takes care of config and other things | 10:23 |
| sensebend | ah, I see | 10:23 |

| TUXIE | Back to Suze DVD... 3'5 Gigabyte install without a hitch! compare that to Ubuntu's 700 mb ..maybe 1.5 gig install! :-> | 10:23 |
| Poprocks | xed, there are two ways to perform a backspace on linux -- ctrl+h is the unix way, not used by linux by default but it still works (iirc anyway) | 10:23 |
| aokaze | sensebend aokaze, go to settings, repositories .... that is what I am talking about.... I didnt ask anything but I got an answer that I dont know what to do with lol | 10:24 |
| MaddMarshall2k | suse is huge | 10:24 |
| sensebend | whoa lots of updates to hoary today | 10:24 |
| MaddMarshall2k | and i dont really see much use to the size | 10:24 |
| xed | I don't see why you'd use ctrl+h if you have backspace | 10:24 |
| MaddMarshall2k | i mean it has slightly better driver support | 10:24 |
| sensebend | err aokaze, sorry I meant apes | 10:24 |
| MaddMarshall2k | hardware support i mean | 10:24 |
| TUXIE | Okay what do u get with Ubuntu ..2.6 kernal ..KDE 3.2? | 10:24 |
| xed | Unless ofcourse.. it works in .. putty.. in windows | 10:24 |
| JDahl | xed... it predates backspace.. it' | 10:24 |
| xed | it'? | 10:24 |
| sensebend | gotta love autocomplete in irc clients :S | 10:24 |
| TUXIE | No Gnome 2.8? | 10:24 |

| Gwildor|Work | yup yup | 10:25 |

| sensebend | yes | 10:27 |
| apes | sensebend, i only see universe, where i multiverse? | 10:27 |
| zenwhen | Agrajag, | 10:27 |
| Agrajag | RPM is more like dpkg | 10:27 |
| zenwhen | what about apt-rpm??? | 10:27 |
| JDahl | xed, yes, like synaptic, but doesnt require X | 10:27 |
| Agrajag | zenwhen: see that's a more fair comparison | 10:27 |

| Gwildor|Work | apes.....see where it says "universe" make it say "universe multiverse" | 10:27 |

| apes | and still after doing an apt-get update i dont have mplayer and xine in the repositories | 10:27 |

| TUXIE | This is not a tech channel for "debating" various "distros" .. sorry people.. forgive me.. ;-> | 10:27 |
| kezz | rpm's dependency handling isn't as good | 10:28 |
| Gwildor|Work | xed, synaptic is gui frontend for apt....so is aptitude | 10:28 |

| Gwildor|Work | ding ding | 10:28 |
| Agrajag | hat does dpkg do differently? | 10:28 |
| kezz | because an rpm system always corrupts itself | 10:28 |
| Agrajag | no it doesn't. | 10:28 |
| JDahl | xed, next time you need to install something try to do it with aptitude.. it's much better than apt-get alone... it's superb for fixing broken depencies and install recommended packages that goes the package you want to install. | 10:28 |

| MaddMarshall2k | like actually for dvd | 10:58 |
| mjg59 | MaddMarshall2k: For DVD playback? totem is good, but not very full featured. xine has many, many features. | 10:58 |
| MaddMarshall2k | not totem | 10:58 |
| Poprocks | totem-xine is probably easiest to use | 10:58 |
| MaddMarshall2k | xine then ok | 10:58 |
| narkone | any spanish? | 10:58 |
| mjg59 | You want the xine-ui package | 10:58 |
| Poprocks | MaddMarshall2k, you can also get Totem to use xine to play stuff | 10:58 |
| Ensiferum | *sigh* no cd-rom :| | 10:58 |
| Poprocks | but xine-ui is probably what you're looking for | 10:59 |
| MaddMarshall2k | not looking for easy... looking for full featured... sorta like powerdvd and such | 10:59 |

| neofeed | neighborlee, what's a 'slice' app? | 11:28 |
| neighborlee | I mean it doesn't work period..has anyone else tried it?? | 11:29 |
| neofeed | does it slice bread? | 11:29 |
| neighborlee | neofeed, well it takes a image and slices it up into table format .. | 11:29 |
| neighborlee | which makes it nice for page layout | 11:29 |
| topyli | man slice -> No manual entry for slice | 11:29 |
| neofeed | neighborlee, page layout with tables for images? | 11:29 |
| neighborlee | py-slice | 11:29 |

| neofeed | neighborlee, who on earth does serious webdesign with tables? ... yea i know there are a lot. | 11:30 |

| === topyli [~juha@dsl-hkigw3pa5.dial.inet.fi] has left #ubuntu [] | ||
| neofeed | if you say so. I'm not going to argue about what can be done with css and not. therefor we have #web | 11:31 |
| neighborlee | neofeed, unless I'm not using css right...shrug..i'm a bit rusty so... | 11:31 |
| VirtualDarKness | neofeed, the problem with CSS is called IE ;) | 11:31 |
| will | hi how do i run a .pl file? | 11:31 |
| neofeed | VirtualDarKness, yea. But that's not a problem with no fix ;) | 11:31 |
| exlt | incorrect: there are server-based distros out there, such as SLES, RHEL, Trustix - depends on what you are comfortable with | 11:31 |
| neofeed | VirtualDarKness, and there is this IE7 javascript thingy that makes IE understand some css | 11:32 |
| neighborlee | neofeed, I just need to set my javascript code for mouseovers is all i'm really after but for that I must slice up this large image..can that be done with css ? | 11:32 |
| VirtualDarKness | neofeed, what is the IE7 thing? | 11:32 |

| JDahl | will, perl xxx.pl | 11:33 |
| incorrect | exlt, yeah debian, just so old, sarge will be out of date before it comes out | 11:33 |

| will | JDahl:thanks! | 11:34 |
| neighborlee | neofeed, no ..I thought about using imagemap but not sure thats the way I want to go | 11:34 |
| incorrect | whahats SELS? | 11:34 |
| incorrect | exlt, you can't use that for productions | 11:34 |
| exlt | incorrect: or, as our IT folks do, use backports | 11:34 |
| neofeed | neighborlee, so you want to split up an image into 100 of pieces. buy that adding lots of server load and stuff? | 11:34 |
| neighborlee | neofeed, is that the standard way of doing things ? | 11:34 |
| neighborlee | neofeed, ha not 100's..maybe 20 or so....anyway so I can do this with css ??? | 11:34 |
| neofeed | neighborlee, if you have 1 image . You open ONE stream. and get ONE header sent. if you slice it into 100 images you get 99 more open streams and 99 more headers | 11:34 |
| neofeed | neighborlee, slicing - no, position, yes. | 11:35 |
| neofeed | neighborlee, but for those questions I'd rather you to go to #web | 11:35 |
| neighborlee | neofeed, well..its slightly more complicated than that | 11:35 |
| incorrect | exlt, i simply need a dsitro that provides good tomcat and java support, just packages would do, no stupid X no extra junk, | 11:35 |
| exlt | incorrect: Debian is about stability (read: good for servers), not bleeding edge | 11:35 |

| neighborlee | neofeed, thx | 11:35 |
| will | where is the best place to install vmware and its libraries? | 11:35 |
| incorrect | exlt, yeah, i guess i should just trust in debian ;) | 11:35 |
| neofeed | incorrect, so what about looking for some java, tomcat deb's? and use debian? | 11:36 |
| exlt | incorrect: this is precisely why I install tomcat and SDK on my own in, and not rely on someone else building it form me | 11:36 |
| neofeed | incorrect, doesn't sound too hard to me. | 11:36 |
| incorrect | neofeed, there aren't any tomcat 5 debs that are worth using | 11:36 |
| === srbaker [~srbaker@blk-222-13-66.eastlink.ca] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| neofeed | incorrect, so. install on all server debian. create a java/tomcat install somewhere in /usr/local | 11:36 |
| neofeed | and simply copy it over to the other server using what ever you prefere most. | 11:37 |
| exlt | jakarta.apache.org, incorrect - untar it, set up a few things, and let 'er rip... | 11:37 |
| incorrect | neofeed, i got 50 servers | 11:37 |
| neofeed | you could even st up some rsync repo | 11:37 |

| neofeed | incorrect, all the same server ? | 11:37 |
| MaddMarshall2k | how do i enable dma | 11:37 |
| incorrect | no 50 servers | 11:37 |
| incorrect | 8 racks full | 11:38 |
| jdub | incorrect: no distribution really has great java support atm | 11:38 |

| incorrect | jdub, gentoo would be sweet if it made packages, but it doesn't as such | 11:38 |
| incorrect | neofeed, sort of | 11:38 |
| neofeed | incorrect, or do you have different hardware, different nics etc? | 11:38 |
| exlt | ewwww | 11:38 |
| incorrect | neofeed, variants | 11:38 |
| neighborlee | neofeed, I stumped all 150 users so far LOL | 11:38 |
| incorrect | neofeed, i could mirror them, but | 11:38 |
| neighborlee | neofeed, so I guesss ill be using a imagemap possibly LOL | 11:38 |
| incorrect | i could just write a bash script to do it | 11:39 |
| exlt | gentoo is simply too much time to admin, imo, and very limited gains in performance | 11:39 |
| === BlackHussar [~chatzilla@216.52.211.100] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| incorrect | it wouldn't be hard to scipt the install, | 11:39 |
| neighborlee | exlt, I agree '100%' | 11:39 |
| neofeed | exlt, gains, if ever. | 11:39 |
| incorrect | urg | 11:39 |
| incorrect | i just wanted it as part of the distro | 11:39 |
| neighborlee | exlt, I know...I've tried it and 'no thanks' | 11:39 |
| incorrect | i want the moon on a stick | 11:40 |
| neighborlee | lol | 11:40 |
| neofeed | incorrect, you will hardly get something like that. But maybe someone in #debian did that already and has the scripts? | 11:40 |
| incorrect | does anyone know where i can get the moon on a stick? | 11:40 |
| neighborlee | exlt, I figure if I want to compile EVERYTHING ill just find job as a computer programmer..but in my real life I could care lesss ;-)) | 11:40 |
| incorrect | neofeed, oh it wouldn't take me long to write the script | 11:40 |
| === BlackHussar [~chatzilla@216.52.211.100] has left #ubuntu [] | ||

| neofeed | incorrect, ask in the next superstore for a stick and a cheese, there you go. | 11:40 |
| jdub | incorrect: any distro would be sweet if it made packages, thus my comment. | 11:40 |
| gilgamesh_ | Anyone want to tackle an abstract hypothetical? | 11:41 |
| Pugio | ummm | 11:41 |
| gilgamesh_ | One only tengentially having to do with linux? | 11:41 |
| Pugio | such as... | 11:41 |
| exlt | incorrect: you could set up your servers from default debian install - create and distribute your own sdk/tomcat packages that would allow you to distribute them among your servers - this way let apt maintain the os, and all you need to do is maintain your app server software | 11:41 |
| Pugio | gilgames.... | 11:41 |
| incorrect | exlt, yeah i could package tomcat5 and java 1.4, i guess it would help others | 11:42 |
| incorrect | im lazy | 11:42 |
| Pugio | gilgamesh_ .... | 11:42 |
| gilgamesh_ | Sorry, yes. | 11:42 |

| gilgamesh_ | If you were the IT manager for a startup law firm with twenty or so personnel, keeping in mind the needs for office apps, secure email, etc. how would you set up the office network? | 11:43 |
| Pugio | hmmmm | 11:43 |
| Pugio | I'd have to think about that some | 11:44 |
| Pugio | answer: very carefully | 11:44 |
| gilgamesh_ | A friend of mine and I were contemplating forming our own firm when we get out of law school, and being a former CS guy, the IT end of the hypo sprung to mind. | 11:44 |
| exlt | incorrect: http://lists.debian.org/debian-java/2004/09/msg00060.html | 11:45 |
| incorrect | Yeah i know those debs ;) | 11:46 |
| gilgamesh_ | I mean, long-term data storage and secure email are crucial, since client data is like blood. Of course, to implement the traditional Windows client-server solution is expensive and problematic, so the big question was, "could linux do the job on both the server and client ends?" | 11:46 |
| incorrect | exlt, just wanted as part of the distro | 11:47 |
| === adam_ [~adam@207-255-118-254-dhcp.unt.pa.atlanticbb.net] has joined #ubuntu | ||

| neofeed | incorrect eq gilgamesh_ | 11:48 |
| exlt | incorrect, yeah, but if you read the headache that it is to create his debs, it is clear why a simple tar xzvf from the official jakarta archive is so nice - and it "just works" | 11:48 |
| incorrect | exlt, i suppose | 11:49 |

| davmor2 | ogra r u about | 11:50 |
| gilgamesh_ | care to enlighten? | 11:50 |
| HrdwrBoB | gilgamesh_: the main thing apparently is templates | 11:50 |
| jcspray | Dammit, why did January's calendar have to be a guy? | 11:50 |
| exlt | incorrect, gentoo also has no qualms about throwing software into their repositories without a "higher level" of regard for licensing | 11:50 |
| gilgamesh_ | Templates, flexible bullets&numbering, and the right fonts. Seems simple enough | 11:50 |
| HrdwrBoB | yeah | 11:50 |
| HrdwrBoB | if you start with OO.o | 11:51 |
| jcspray | adam_: http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/Java | 11:51 |

| gilgamesh_ | 0 compatibility options? | 11:51 |
| krix | HrdwrBoB, 0 comp. options with MS* products? :) | 11:51 |

| krix | at last summer i tried to migrate a company from windows to linux | 11:51 |
| exlt | incorrect, how many machines did you say? 50? see you in a couple of weeks after your initial provisioning.... | 11:51 |
| gilgamesh_ | Why would I need compatibility with MS Office, if the whole office were linux? | 11:51 |
| krix | based on 18 windows clients. But the hard part was MSword and OOo | 11:52 |
| gilgamesh_ | For inter-office memos I can export to pdf | 11:52 |
| exlt | gilgamesh_, to email doc files to windows users, perhaps? | 11:52 |
| krix | the company reciving some very important documents from other companies in msword .doc | 11:52 |
| krix | btw OOo got crash when tried to open it :) | 11:52 |
| jcspray | gilgamesh_: I long to also inhabit your wonderful fantasy world in which people don't send you .doc files. | 11:52 |
| krix | OOo is not a perfect stable system at this moment if you need to view, edit ms* docs | 11:52 |
| gilgamesh_ | If I need to send memoranda to clients, they don't need editing capability, so pdf would suffice, yes? | 11:52 |
| HrdwrBoB | gilgamesh_: precisely | 11:52 |
| HrdwrBoB | gilgamesh_: my main point is, the primary reason for not changing is the investment in current tech | 11:53 |
| HrdwrBoB | so if you start from 0 with free tools | 11:53 |
| HrdwrBoB | you're ahead | 11:53 |
| === exlt loves pdf for pretty printing, too | ||
| krix | gilgamesh_, or try to do that you buy a crossoveroffice | 11:53 |
| krix | and some msoffice products. | 11:53 |
| incorrect | i used to host 30 servers on debian and that took a week to deploy, but i had rewritten all the configs | 11:53 |
| krix | then running frm crossover office the msword products for problem documents. | 11:53 |
| gilgamesh_ | Yeah, crossover is one option... albeit not an optimal one | 11:53 |
| krix | not an optimal but a working option | 11:54 |
| neofeed | incorrect, 30 server ? one week? you are definitivly overpayed :P | 11:54 |
| exlt | incorrect, you need to look into pxe and fai | 11:54 |
| exlt | that is what I do for a living... | 11:54 |
| krix | gilgamesh_, that is the safest way i think. | 11:54 |
| exlt | my data center techs can provision 100+ servers in each DC in one shift | 11:54 |
| krix | now go to install ubuntu! :) | 11:55 |
| krix | bye | 11:55 |
| gilgamesh_ | jcspray - incoming .docs would be a minimal problem in a law office (I would think), because most of the paperwork is internally generated. Clients don't generally do paperwork, and opposing counsel gives you hardcopy. | 11:55 |
| incorrect | neofeed, i don' think thats bad for a cluster | 11:55 |
| gilgamesh_ | Maybe I'm wrong though | 11:55 |
| incorrect | didn't have a single problem until someone melted the comms room by under specing the air conn | 11:56 |

| incorrect | and tested? | 11:57 |
| exlt | incorrect, depends on what you are testing | 11:57 |
| exlt | incorrect, testing shmesting - its a cluster - you should be able to take nodes up and down at will | 11:58 |
| incorrect | im testing the replication, active fail over, load balancing, back up, disaster recovery, | 11:58 |
| exlt | yeah, true, I suppose | 11:58 |
