[05:09] mjr: how would I convert it? [05:10] ari_: just disable the cdrom repository like i said 5 times and it will work [05:10] StolenShoeBox, I don't remember; run "man bchunk" in a terminal [05:10] bob2: sure it does i just understand half of it =) [05:10] I don't even have it installed currently, I just remember using it once for that purpose [05:10] subterrific:and why it doesn't work even with the cd in the cd-rom driver [05:10] is it bad 2 install kde?

[05:17] ari_: yes [05:17] yes [05:17] subterrific: oh it finds the partitions in the partitioner, but only because its reading from the 'disc' or 'hda' file [05:17] echo fglrx | sudo tee -a /etc/modules returns "fglrx" [05:17] once it gets past that nothing works [05:18] subterrific: ok thanks, wait a sec [05:18] jintonic_, use pico or nano to edit /etc/modules and add a line with 'fglrx' at the bottom [05:18] its already there [05:19] ObsidianX: define nothing works [05:19] mjr: It worked great thx.

[06:03] where would i go to get the latest testing version of ubuntu? http://cdimage.ubuntulinux.org/sounder-test/current/ or http://cdimage.ubuntulinux.org/daily/current/ , or would http://cdimage.ubuntulinux.org/weekly-dvd/ work too, since i'd rather use dvd [06:03] yup, i figured that one out, thats how i got this far [06:03] ok, with the BusID change did you try again? [06:03] i'm checking, but i don't think i'm seeing any errors related to video anymore [06:04] good [06:04] yeah, but the busid was commented out and in another section [06:04] HJ... daily? [06:04] does anyone know what a .mkv is [06:04] is it? [06:04] jintonic_, well change the BusID for the Section where you specify Device "flgrx" [06:05] ok [06:05] the first error i'm getting is about the mouse, looks like /dev/mouse doesnt exist [06:06] thats the only error now, the mouse === Tyche [~Tyche@c-67-171-112-132.client.comcast.net] has left #ubuntu ["Leaving"] [06:07] jintonic_, find Section "Input Device" and change Option "Device" "/dev/mouse" -> Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice" [06:08] Hj: About weekly dvd of hoary - Did tried it ?

[07:14] the important thing is making sure nothing else is using /dev/dsp or /dev/snd/whatever [07:14] jintonic_: apt-cache search tux racer [07:14] when compiling the kernel with usb audio, one is supposed to NOT compile OSS. [07:15] BROKEN_LADDER: if you made a custom kernel, the config is up to you [07:15] i already did that in slackware.

[07:16] BROKEN_LADDER: please stop making claims [07:16] the default kernel uses alsa [07:16] oh brother [07:16] ubuntu uses alsa.. period [07:16] oss emulation maybe [07:16] it also loads the oss emulation modules === bretzel [~bretzel@modemcable128.237-130-66.mc.videotron.ca] has left #ubuntu [] [07:16] right [07:16] oh..it's the emulation? [07:16] then that's fine. [07:16] on alsa.. I'm having a hell of a time.. is there anything special I need to do with my game theatre xp? [07:16] alsa and oss should all work but in the end it's all actually oss [07:16] err [07:16] alsa [07:16] no. [07:17] the howto's go out of their way to explain what i found out the hard way. [07:17] if you compile alsa and usb audio support, you CAN NOT compile oss support. [07:17] it will not work. [07:17] that sounds quite wrong [07:17] yeah, hence oss emulation [07:17] yup. [07:17] if it's true, I hope they have filed a bug [07:17] but you can have both, I'm pretty sure [07:17] I've never tried, I've always kept as far away from oss as possible [07:17] yeah no kidding [07:18] how much space does ubuntu take up for some of you devs here? My root partition is completely full and I cant figure out what's taking up so much space (3.5GB) - I just have basic Hoary + GNU tools [07:18] 3.5 GB is.. not a lot.

I've installed quite a bit of extras and I'm still only using 3.2 [07:20] Poprocks, Python, gcc, xemacs, umfpack, + several others, nothing that should take from 1.8GB to 3.5GB [07:20] Rene_S: you want 300 people to say "I don't know|? [07:20] No just one thanks [07:20] is using esd somehow better than telling an app to just "use alsa"? [07:20] like say xmms [07:20] Rene_S: try asking on the user list if you don't get an answer here [07:20] BROKEN_LADDER: no, but it's sometimes neccessary === elmaya [~elmaya@201.135.28.135] has joined #ubuntu [07:20] Rene_S: I could offer some ideas but I don't have an nvidia card so I wouldn't be able to help too much [07:20] ahh [07:20] Rene_S: have you installed the kernel headers?

[07:22] i don't really use gstreamer yet, but i will when theora maures. [07:22] matures. [07:22] Rene_S: fwiw, I wasn't able to build any kernel modules until I got rid of the kernel source, installed the headers and let the packs do their own thing [07:22] BROKEN_LADDER: what's wrong with gstreamer? [07:23] I'm trying to convert m4a music files into waves or mp3s. Is that possable with XMMS?

[08:17] Liz: or are you dist-upgrading or cross upgrading from another distro? [08:18] neither [08:18] i apparently have a dev copy from a linux workshop we had locally [08:18] run perfectly till now [08:18] i tried to install gdesktop [08:18] can i tar a file into a specific output dir? [08:19] I'm still getting the impression windows is better for "just" recording. [08:19] untar, rather [08:19] but now everythings screwy..and synaptic uninstalled all my gnome files [08:19] jintonic: sure. [08:19] cause it said it was broken [08:19] how? [08:19] i'm a newbie though so disregard [08:20] is there a way to re-install all without deleting all my data in /home? [08:20] Liz: hmm. The package 'gdesktop'? If so, I'm not registering any such package in Warty. [08:20] jintonic, easy go to the dir you want it in then do your tar command by adding the dir whar the tar is located [08:20] its not in warty crimsun..we d/led it to install.. [08:21] Liz: from where did you download it? [08:21] and see if it would run..but it had problems with libgnomeui files [08:21] jintonic: -C should do the trick .. ie "tar xzf profile.tgz -C /home/user/" is in one of my scripts [08:22] jintonic, like you want it in /home/name/download but its in /home/name go to the download dir then do tar -xzvf somefile.tar.gz [08:22] jintonic, like you want it in /home/name/download but its in /home/name go to the download dir then do tar -xzvf /home/name/somefile.tar.gz [08:23] i'd prefer to be able to just specify a output dir no matter my cwd [08:23] http://gdesklets.gnomedesktop.org/ [08:23] i got it from there crimsun [08:23] jintonic: That's precisely what -C or --directory= does [08:24] smo is right [08:24] i jsut do it the hard way [08:24] Liz: ah, that package is in the 'universe' repo [08:24] I hate to sound like a perl nut, but there's always more than one way ... [08:24] Liz: you did not need to manually download it then install it [08:25] hrm, but if the output dir doesnt exist it doesnt work [08:25] it is?..i had a look before i downloaded it off that website [08:25] Liz: absolutely: gdesklets: 0.26.2-5ubuntu1 0 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com warty/universe Packages === trialsd1 [~dan@adsl-66-122-73-47.dsl.snlo01.pacbell.net] has left #ubuntu [] === alias[k] [~aliask@c211-28-124-119.eburwd3.vic.optusnet.com.au] has joined #ubuntu [08:29] cool..but that doesn solve my problem now..how do i get all the ubuntu desktop environment back?

[08:31] remove the gdesklets first [08:32] its not installed [08:32] I just formatted though, so I'm not much help...

(Boot off usb hdd). [08:35] i have the released one zenrox [08:35] but why install something that was working anyway [08:35] Is it possible to install it without formatting, into a subdirectory of the root [08:35] alias[k] , no [08:36] What about LiveCD [08:36] alias[k] , nope [08:36] Damn. [08:36] So At last resort I could format mp3 player, stick a normal install on, then replace all the old files. [08:36] alias[k] , the install cd requires a linux partion [08:37] Can't install under FAT32? [08:37] nope [08:37] Could just partition it.

[09:12] Alysander: snd-intel8x0 is the ALSA driver. [09:13] volume control gives me two tabs: [09:13] realtek id 90 [oss mixer] [09:14] and Nvidia ck8s [alsa mixer] [09:14] Alysander: ok, so it appears to be loaded at least, and the alsa mixer tab is probably less confusing (though they should perform identical operations) [09:15] mostly, except the OSS mixer has a digital out too [09:15] ok, what sort of problems are you experiencing with sound? [09:16] No sound [09:16] are the channels muted? [09:16] no [09:16] this app "sound juicer" doesn't support mp3 encoding? [09:16] I can use digital out or headphones [09:16] but have 8 channel plugs [09:17] jintonic: appears to support ogg vorbis and flac, at least [09:17] under Mandrake 10.1 I set line-in to output [09:17] yeah... but ogg and flac don't work on my ipod... [09:18] Alysander: please open a terminal and execute `aplay -Dplughw:0 foo.wav' [09:18] it can do mp3 but requires some configuration afaik [09:18] i don't know what you have to do to make it work though [09:18] thats kinda silly [09:18] jintonic: its not like you can distribute mp3 encoders [09:19] so it can't default to that, otherwise it would do nothing at all [09:19] why not? [09:19] you probably have to install lame and then change some option [09:19] jintonic: mp3 encoding is patented and is actively enforced apparently [09:19] yea, why not... i encode mp3s all the time on my archos [09:19] hehe [09:20] didnt know that, i bet its only enforced cuz the riaa leaned on the patent holders [09:20] nomasteryoda: probably either with a program you download from outside the patent countries or with software you paid for (including licensing fees) [09:20] calc, well ... the archos comes with an mp3 encoder built in. [09:20] i would guess he ipod does to [09:20] nomasteryoda: ah ok [09:21] it might but its not exposed in a way to use it [09:21] and yea, the license was paid for by me i would guess.. but very small ... i'm guessing === calc has an ipod [09:21] and i put the hacked firmware... rockbox on it for better menus and mp3 quality [09:21] yea mp3 license is probably very cheap per unit, but you have to pay for a large sum at once or something like that [09:22] if i dropped your ipod from 4 ft, would it still look the same and work? [09:22] OK crimsun I tried: === calc hasn't looked at its licensing in a few years [09:22] aplay -Dplughw:0 /usr/share/sounds/question.wav [09:22] Playing WAVE '/usr/share/sounds/question.wav' : Signed 16 bit Little Endian, Rate 44100 Hz, Mono [09:22] nomasteryoda: not sure if the current version does the patented drive stoppage or not [09:22] my archos has padding on the corners.. [09:22] nomasteryoda: you saw that apple patented large drops right? ;) [09:22] yea [09:22] like that is a patentable idea [09:22] i don't intend to drop my ipod though :) [09:23] like amazon one-click :) [09:23] soon pissing while standing will be patented [09:23] =) [09:23] too late [09:23] I took one out on that this morning [09:23] lol [09:23] nomasteryoda: go to cologne/germany......in carnival times..... [09:23] microshaft got that patent already [09:23] I can certainly claim prior art there [09:24] nomasteryoda: it costs you 30 euro license fee :) [09:24] man, that is high dollar urinal... lol [09:24] heh === Alysander [~alysander@60-240-129-18.tpgi.com.au] has left #ubuntu [] [09:25] morning to you all... time or a couple hrs zzz === da_bon_bon [~rohandhru@210.18.160.134] has joined #ubuntu === Fyren [~fyren@73.155.39-62.rev.gaoland.net] has joined #ubuntu === Fyren [~fyren@73.155.39-62.rev.gaoland.net] has left #ubuntu [] === thisfred [~thisfred@a80-127-80-154.adsl.xs4all.nl] has joined #ubuntu [09:28] how can i make apt-get search for a package? === luc1f3r [~rradjabi@adsl-69-109-17-192.dsl.snlo01.pacbell.net] has joined #ubuntu [09:29] BROKEN_LADDER: not sure what you mean [09:29] like i need libgcrypt [09:29] BROKEN_LADDER: apt-cache(8) search is the preferred method [09:29] but i don't know the exact name of the package [09:29] BROKEN_LADDER: (e.g., apt-cache search libgcrypt) [09:29] looks like i need a plugin to gstreamer for mp3?

[10:28] mgedmin: hoary is derived from sid and then ubuntu bug get introduced additional to the debian bugs, so it is likely that it is far mor unstable then sid and likely to break in many places [10:28] bugs even [10:29] sounds exciting :) [10:29] xp has a lot of drivers built-in though [10:29] mgedmin: just to prepare you what is to come ;) [10:29] if you use a nvidia or ati card its likely to work out of the box [10:29] but no 3d acceleration in built-in drivers :) [10:29] not an x800 [10:30] ? huh, we ment winxp [10:30] some linux distros are almost there... knoppix is pretty much there === krrh [~krrh@ip68-103-136-235.ks.ok.cox.net] has joined #ubuntu [10:30] ubuntu is superior to knoppix [10:30] its that simple [10:30] yeah [10:30] heh, okay === Tomcat_ [Tomcat@pD9E60A52.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #ubuntu [10:31] it's the best i've tried so far === Potn_ [~potnhbug@ip129-167.bacs-net.hu] has joined #ubuntu [10:31] jintonic, have you installed ubuntu ?

[10:32] Cube-ness, yes [10:32] knoppix is great for its hardware support and automatic detection [10:32] i find ubuntu very nice, ive given out 50 cds so far [10:32] Forgive me if this is a silly question, but I haven't found the answer online, and the noise is killig me. [10:32] mgedmin, how?

[10:34] haven't tried fedora, never liked red hat [10:35] i find fedora buggy [10:35] i got fc3 here too. it's more fiddly imho [10:35] OK, it's likely an ACPI issue. I've had to disable it at boot in order to get any precompiled kernel working. [10:35] i found FC3 just wouldnt run on one machine, ubuntu ran fine [10:35] yeah maybe that's it [10:36] If I don't disable it, the system reboots after decompressing the kernel. [10:36] maybe it needs boot time kernel option [10:36] Any resources for figuring out this ACPI problem?

[10:38] there's no beating ubuntu install though, excellent... and the layout of the gui is nice... all that's left is to improve hardware detection a little bit and ubuntu just may become a word grandma knows [10:38] Microstar. It's a real crapper. [10:38] yum is better in fc3 but apt/synaptic is niiice :) [10:38] It's also causing some wicken AGP conflicts with my PCI video. I despise this board. [10:39] apt rocks, i loved it from day one on potato and still do [10:39] and i like the social contract/philosphy rather than beta testing for redhat [10:39] definately [10:40] hi. i need a groupware with an webinterface and the chance to sync it with evolution. someone an idea?

I got tired of design flaws in the gentoo package system that broke my system... i can't say i'm unhappy about switching, but i wouldn't say either of them is a clear winner [04:48] neenee: that's not the same is it? -O means optimize, -O0 means do not optimize [04:48] I like gentoo, except compile times [04:48] otherwise it be schweet [04:48] btw, when was the hoary release date again? [04:48] um...not sure, gotta be a few months away [04:48] flodin: hmm.. i've never seen -O0 being used [04:48] flodin: i assumed it was erroneous [04:49] count 6 months from oct 26 [04:49] neenee: -O0 is equivalent to having no option at all. What I mean to say is that with -O2 it compiles without warnings, and with no -O2 there it gives a gazillion warnings about forgotten return statements (but it still compiles the program) [04:49] i see [04:49] sometime in April/early may I imagine [04:49] i guess i'll wait for hoary to get cd-burning to work [04:49] without it uses the optimization set by the devs of whatever you're compiling, which is broken? [04:49] cd-burning already works [04:49] use k3b [04:50] k3b doesn't see my drive [04:50] ooh [04:50] and it also hangs on startup... [04:50] well there's a few others you can try... [04:50] neenee: well i'm the developer... and without an -O option, it uses no optimization. Which is what I want, in order to debug the program [04:51] nautilus cd burner used to be usable for burning, but by the time ubuntu went final, it stopped working [04:51] flodin: ok. i thought it used no extra optimization with -O either [04:51] it works for me, but I like zee k3b [04:51] knowing that hoary will be out in the near future, i'm too lazy to do the ide-scsi whatever dance before that [04:51] why not use atapi burning? [04:51] neenee: -O is equivalent to -O1, i believe [04:51] yeah, as it stands there is no supported audio cd burnur [04:51] I have a Samsung CDRW/DVD reader combo though [04:52] Nonphasis: wow... ubuntuguide.com does rock.

[08:22] trey3: however lsmod | grep ide_cd finds the module [08:22] also try 'sudo lshw' Ensiferum [08:22] see if it sees your cdroms [08:22] will, heh...well ubuntu ROCKS me yeah ill be very elated to see java [08:22] doesn't java work then? [08:23] Ensiferum: hmm... then theoretically, the cdrom should be there.... /dev/hdc... [08:23] neenee, after you jump through hoops yes.. [08:23] i setup java this afternoon with debian.. shouldn't be that difficult with ubuntu? [08:23] neenee, hoops with suzie wont do [08:23] neenee: yes it works, its a cross platform language/machine [08:23] dud: that's a great command!

[08:24] what kernel is in hoary [08:24] hm [08:24] Ensiferum, YES [08:25] are there localized hoary repositories [08:25] trey: thats true, but hopefully they will work towards it :) [08:25] Ensiferum, I mean,,yes..sorry my caps went on accidentily === macewan [~macewan@ip68-101-19-222.nc.hr.cox.net] has joined #ubuntu [08:25] 2.6.9 isnt it?

[08:25] Ensiferum: I'm really not the person to ask about specifics... basically... hal pics up that the hardware is there, dbus pokes udev, and udev creates the pointer... [08:25] also 2.6.10 [08:25] Thats as far as my understanding stretches though...

[08:26] trey3, there is no choice about integrating java unless we dont want to see ubuntu succede..heck linux in general ;-) [08:26] i just hate sun and java [08:26] nothing personal, but i just hate it [08:26] always have, always will [08:26] neighborlee: I disagree... the only distro that currently installs Java off the bat is SUSE... and they suck... === GFXstyLER [~kevin@xdslf033.osnanet.de] has joined #ubuntu [08:26] no I think mepis does too [08:26] egh [08:26] who wants to try suns ljava linux!?!?

[08:27] Does the nvidia drivers howto found from ubuntu guide work for the AMD64 version in the exact same way? [08:27] trey3: hotplug and udev get pushed by the kernel when there is a new device.. udev creates the device node, hotplug does some other stuff if needed.. both send events to hal which merges all the info [08:27] so no sound, no video ... [08:27] dud, don't flamebait [08:27] dud: its the JVM thats slow, not the language [08:27] kezz, heh... [08:27] neighborlee: tons of sites use JavaScript... thats included...

[08:27] sjoerd: ahh... thanks :) [08:27] trey3, you must go through a arcane install procedure so dont tell me its included [08:28] neenee, just follow the wiki page on upgrading to hoary [08:28] DVD-hoary jan-2005 seems to install well, but it was unable to start the framebuffer ... [08:28] its real simple [08:28] xukun, not sure..but kanotis makes alot of things easier to install with tons of scripts... [08:28] dud: i will try, but lynx is not very nice to me :) [08:28] xukun: I have never even looked into Kanotix... which should tell you how successful it is...

[08:29] cd burning is fine, but dvd is so damn slow for me :( [08:29] xukun, thats my points ..its not bad..;-)) [08:29] trey3: : looking at it wouldnt heart anybody [08:30] what's the path for gcc on Warty?

I am actually erasing my Fedora installation :-) now my P4 computer have Two ubuntu linux + the M$-winxp [08:30] gangalino: apt-get install build-essential [08:30] xukun, ubuntu makes most things pretty darn easy which is its entire point..I hope they add java to the easy list [08:30] kosmonautti, ctrl+alt+backspace? [08:30] damnit [08:30] dud: the search function on the ubuntu wiki page does not work in lynx. [08:30] neighborlee: thats funny... Debian is considered one of the hardest distro's around... but Ubuntu is NO different... I'm confused... [08:31] trey3: I have tried it and using a long time along with ubuntu for my laptop and its realy gread [08:31] 33: synaptic shows gcc3.4 base installed [08:31] Ubuntu = customized subset of Debian packages....

[08:32] hey, that "ancient init system" works great ;P [08:32] geez. [08:32] trey3: I dont get it because once it is installed, it just works ... I did install the jsdk version 5 and it seems ok [08:32] Pozac: and apt and ancient init system = Debian traits... [08:32] yeah, except when you need to change something [08:33] trey3, ubuntu is entirely different..EASY to install ..most things just 'work' out of the box including alot of devices ...PLUS we get gnome2.8..anyway ubuntu rocks..I said so months ago and still feel that way..but we need java easier to install because we 'are' a easy to use distro...;-)....I think though we should shoot for IBM not sun [08:33] trey3, yup [08:33] neenee, http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/GuideToHoary [08:33] crimsun: isn't it also available in Synaptic Pkg. Mgr? which one can I install? gcc3.4? [08:33] gangalino: sure, it's available. Just search for and install 'build-essential'. [08:33] just booted after messing up with MAKEDEV. system does load ide_generic, ide_disk and ide_cd. but, yet there's no device in /dev. neither do i seem them probed if listing kernel messages with dmesg. what gives? [08:34] if this disc work, ill donate $50 to the flood victims [08:34] neighborlee: Ubuntu uses debian-installer... try getting a Sarge netinstall disc [08:34] fairly certain it wont heh [08:34] anybody installed monodevelop on ubuntu ppc? [08:34] neighborlee: Ah I get it :-) There are missing tools for java then...But the base is there and ok tho [08:34] dammit [08:34] the greatest thing i like about ubuntu is adherence to debian policy for packaging but not adherence to debian extreme anal-retentiveness when it comes to choosing which packages to include in a stable distro version [08:35] neighborlee: I actually dislike the installer on account of it doesn't let me set domain or select my own packages... [08:35] thats another thing..if we dont include the 'essential' stuff..I think it would be nice to 'include' it in synaptic at first start as optional niceities for those that dont know about them ....i'd really like to see ubuntu climb the'easy to use' ladde and give M$ a run for its money ( competition is GOOD in this case 0 [08:35] my nforce drivers won't install [08:35] randabis: ? :-) [08:35] neighborlee: those two substractions = the only differences though... [08:35] oh! [08:35] the modules won't create [08:35] so no network or sound on the main box [08:35] trey3, the installer could be better yes..I think ( unlesss they have loftier plans) they might be well served to adopt use of 'anaconda' possibly like many others have [08:35] randabis-wireles, whats wrong with the one in restriced-modules ?

[08:38] how much space does ubuntu need on a laptop to really get a feel for it? I need mostly office type apps, email, web, chat.

[08:38] lavigj, easily enough [08:39] trey3, we are just used to it cause we're all l33t [08:39] neighborlee: its really not though [08:39] LOL [08:39] neighborlee: and I'm not l33t [08:39] kezz: ok, it is my only windows box and as windows likes to replicate, I don't want to cramp it too much :) [08:39] lavigj, [08:39] neighborlee: d-i asks less questions than the CLI interface for XP... its really not hard.

[08:40] dud: lshw doesnt show the cdroms. [08:40] I found it to be the hardest distro around to install [08:40] trey3, no i was saying the current warty installer...i'm all for d-i if it truly makes a nice easy install possible for those wanting it and leaves a power install for us l33ters LOL [08:40] kezz is that what you are using? [08:40] Its pretty... but it sure as hell isn't easy [08:40] trey3, well it is LOL..have you tried it? [08:40] kezz: for space [08:40] lavigj, yes [08:40] kezz: ok, so not bad at all then [08:40] lavigj, its usable now with 2 gig used so 10 gig is easily enough [08:40] kezz: cool. Thanks. [08:41] neighborlee: yes... I wouldn't state "I found it to be the hardest distro around to install" if I hadn't tried it. [08:41] kezz: I usually use gentoo which is a bit disc hungry at times, but I wanted to try something else and didn't want to short myself too much on space [08:41] trey3, anyway thats great news about d-i gtk based installer..berry glad to hear that ;-) [08:41] neighborlee: why? it just means it will take longer to install :/ [08:41] trey3, its no h arder than suse or fedora I dont think..but we all have our own ideas about things [08:41] where are the "C header files" in Warty? [08:42] lavigj, yeah my ibook and gentoo don't get on too well [08:42] oh, and i can't use those restricted modules with a 2.6.10 kernel [08:42] trey3, you miss the point....suzie could care LESS as long as she isn't 'forced into using terminal crap' [08:42] gangalino, /usr/include [08:42] neighborlee: Anaconda is a nice installer... Yast is heavy, but pretty easy... Mandrakes installer is just badly thought out. [08:42] kezz: wierd. I really like gentoo and have had a lot of success with it... I just wanted to try something other than a source based distro on the laptop since it isn't quite so beefy. [08:42] do i have to uncomment that universe thing to install xorg? [08:43] The header files in /usr/include are generally for C libraries, not for the [08:43] running kernel. If you do not have kernel header files in your /usr/src [08:43] directory, you probably do not have the kernel-source package installed. Are yousure that /usr/include contains the header files associated with your running [08:43] kernel? [no] [08:43] neighborlee: XP forces uses to answer more complicated questions... difference being they sell preinstalled on shelves. [08:43] trey3, yeah it is in some places but easy is still relevant ;-) [08:43] Thats the answer... not making installers clunky and "pretty"... [08:43] kezz: do you like the package management in ubuntu? [08:43] trey3, yes i'm not fond of xp's installer either [08:43] trey3, but then who is ..hahaha [08:43] lavigj, yes apt is really nice [08:43] neighborlee: Suzie shouldn't need to install her own box... it should come pre installed [08:43] kezz: cool. this is a Good Thing (TM) [08:44] lavigj, its the best desktop linux ive come across [08:44] trey3, point is clear I think ;-)..easier is good if we care at all about attracting new users which > more vendor support ..assuming 'enough' of us care [08:44] hmmm i tried to install swat (samba config tool) but i get a broken depends msg [08:44] lavigj, esp for my laptop [08:44] kezz: anyway, thanks for the input. I need to get going but I appreciate the info. [08:44] np === Pozac hopes there soon will be a livecd that can install via dd [08:44] it's not only attracting new users, but keeping them.. [08:44] man [08:44] this sucks [08:44] neighborlee: where you and I disagree is what "easy" means... easy to me = not complicated; easy to you = not intimidating to look at... [08:44] why the hell won't the modules get created... [08:45] kezz: actually, one more question. do you have a prism based wireless card? [08:45] trey3, ic [08:45] lavigj, i have a couple of usb adapters but i left them at uni so i haven't tried em yet [08:45] (anyone on the universe line question?) [08:45] they use prism2 chipsets [08:45] neighborlee: you can safely just keep hitting enter with Ubuntu's installer... and likely hood is it will work... [08:45] lavigj, i believe ndiswrapper works ok with ubuntu tho i haven't tried it yet [08:46] trey3, well all i'm saying is if its easy enough ( lets compare it to linspire or xandros easy of install..3 clicks and your done IF you want) for a average housewife or NON programer..then GUESS how many vendors will start supporting linux ..its not rocket science man ;-) [08:46] This is a little less complicated than any other installer I can name... [08:46] kezz: ok. I was just wondering. I don't have experience with wireless under linux [08:46] neenee, do you have hoary? [08:46] kezz: yet [08:46] Pozac: i am upgrading to it at the moment [08:46] neenee, I don't think X.Org is in warty [08:46] lavigj, good luck (you'll need it) [08:46] Pozac: it does not seem to be in hoary either [08:46] for complicated installer, try the netbsd 1.6 or similar :O [08:46] Pozac: its not... :) [08:46] kezz: thanks [08:46] or the old 4.0ish freebsd installer === lavigj [~largo@68.43.244.230] has left #ubuntu [] [08:47] trey3, anyway ill be glad to see this new gtk based installer..the current one is honkey dorey for me but the option coming is def. nice === Vaportrail [~bernd@port-212-202-42-35.dynamic.qsc.de] has joined #ubuntu [08:47] xorg is in hoary [08:47] is it possible to slow down the mouse under x (not gnome)?

[08:49] Vaportrail, just google for "mouse speed x server" or something [08:49] neighborlee, i think there are a few distros aimed at linux newbies, the question is....is ubuntu one of them and is that an official goal of ubuntu? [08:49] Vaportrail: hm.. that might be part of the command [08:49] ycco: wireless? settings seem the same :/ [08:49] Vaportrail: xset m something perhaps [08:50] neenee yes, but that can't make it slower, only faster then it is :( [08:50] Ensiferum: sorry :( [08:50] ycco, hmm.. that looks fine [08:50] ycco, whats the routing issues? [08:50] Vaportrail: you could run gnome-settings-daemon beneath whatever window manager you use [08:50] Cloudchaser: Ubuntu = KISS... afaict at least... === maps73 [~maps73@217.22.227.38] has joined #ubuntu [08:50] ycco, nothing works or? [08:51] neighborlee, i read the "Welcome to Ubunutu" statement on the web page [08:51] Cloudchaser: I don't really think there is a specific target audiance other than those that like simplicity... [08:51] it doesn't say anything about "easy" [08:51] it speaks about "free" [08:51] neenee hmm, but that only does it for gnome or? not for x in general? [08:51] uname -a gives me 2.6.8.1-3-386 which kernel header do I choose? [08:51] Pozac: it works.. just super laggy [08:51] gangalino: that would be -r [08:51] hy... [08:51] if it is an official goal to be easy, it needs to have some things addressed [08:51] gangalino: linux-headers-`uname -r` [08:51] Pozac: I installed at a friends house who has dhcp setup. [08:51] I don't have dhcp setup here. [08:51] gangalino: use kernel-headers-$(uname -r) [08:51] and in this case, free and easy don't go hand in hand [08:52] i've got a question about a mp3 player [08:52] Vaportrail: it would work for x in general [08:52] sudo apt-get install kernel-headers doesn't give me a choice for 2.6.8x [08:52] trey3: :/ [08:52] Vaportrail: add exec gnome-settings-daemon & to your .xinitrc [08:52] Cloudchaser: "easy" as a goal = not my type of distro....

[08:59] well there's some other things missing besides just media and java ease [08:59] Cloudchaser: like what? [08:59] :-) GNome with 2.8 ubuntu is already greater than never and beats KDE in other KDE distros ... so It's hard for me to guess what is better in 2.9 :-) :-) [08:59] media is a big thing [08:59] gangalino: linux-headers-`uname -r` [09:00] One thing I believe is laking for instance = when you click on a .deb... you should get a dialogue asking whether to install... [09:00] crimsun: pardon. your completly right [09:00] Thats about the only thing I see is missing... [09:00] crimsun: cwa2@mombassa:~/downloads/vmware-distrib $ uname -r [09:00] 2.6.8.1-3-386 [09:00] well i'm not quite sure "what" is the issue.. but connecting to other windows pc's, network browsing, samba config is a nightmare [09:00] swat is broken [09:00] swat has been broken for years... [09:00] In hoary installcd, is Lilo working ? because Grub is scewed I had to restart the installation [09:00] ycco, hmm, that seems mighty fine [09:00] A frontend for Samba might be a good thing though...? [09:00] it doesn't even install trey [09:01] there is a hoary install cd? [09:01] yes a frontend built in [09:01] gangalino: install linux-headers-`uname -r` [09:01] its sorta kinda there but not finished i guess [09:01] I am all for making things easier etc... read: take less time/steps though... [09:01] Pozac: I didn't have an /etc/networks file [09:01] !!! [09:01] \trye3: gnomba ?

[09:02] oh! I see kernel 2.6.10 in the hoary installation!!! the sources are being installed! [09:02] FYI, adobe had a pdf viewer for linux coming out soon....its beta ATM [09:02] but, at least on my machine, network browser is not working..i think thats nautilus bug [09:02] bretzel: no... if its not part of Nautilus/GNOME itself, you can't consider it a solution... [09:02] ycco, hmm [09:02] crimsun: YES! [09:02] ycco: excellent [09:02] crimsun: occy.net/insprion7500 [09:02] crimsun: go read that for a chuckle [09:02] Gwildor|Work, i have adobe's pdf reader installed along with the plugin [09:02] Cloudchaser, nautilus was great idea but its just too slow I find..even on my PIV2.26 with one gig of ram ;-) [09:02] bretzel: maybe GNOMBA is going in the right direction... but nautilus is where you go in GNOME to deal with files... [09:03] nautilus too slow? [09:03] Cloudchaser, buts its integration idea is slick indeed... [09:03] now the issues I'm having are with networking and my battery not showing up... [09:03] grml xset m 1/4 1/4 ends in negative acceleration :( [09:03] trey3: ah, its ok, it should be not difficult to implement samba in nautilus for the coders... :-) I would do it meself but no time and too much API to learn [09:03] i don't know what gnomba is [09:03] Pozac: naw... just typing while ssh'ed in shouldn't lag [09:03] neighborlee: that was true years ago... Nautilus is one of the most responsive components of GNOME today though :/ [09:03] Pozac, although I should prob. turh off the icon preview of files ;(.. [09:03] bretzel: :) [09:03] trey3, welllll possibly but NOT if you have on icon preview [09:03] trey3, which btw IS the defaut action [09:03] i get permissions error when i try to browse my network [09:04] crimsun: I appreciate you working with me. But do you mean "sudo apt-get install kernel-headers-2.6.8.1-3-386"? [09:04] neighborlee: yes... and its still fast to me... and I'm on a 950 duron :/ [09:04] gangalino: no, I mean: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r` [09:04] neighborlee, Also not count items in folder.. a bit rough on the ol' disk [09:04] gangalino: yes... [09:04] trey3, well on some large DIR's..its takes forever to load up.... [09:04] sudo apt-get install kernel-headers- 'uname -r' [09:04] Reading Package Lists... Done [09:04] Building Dependency Tree... Done [09:04] Package kernel-headers is not installed, so not removed [09:04] crimsun: same difference... just one is smarter :) === Pozac 's nautilus screams on his 600 mhz laptop [09:04] that it does neighborlee [09:05] trey3: Do you know if lilo is well in hoary ? because there are errors in process on installing grub in my copy of hoary-dvd [09:05] trey3, the icon preview is nice but its a bit slow on load time [09:05] when i mount an smb share it takes a while to load up the dir [09:05] gangalino: my use of back ticks is essential [09:05] oh I see [09:05] bretzel: yes... its the default for XFS formatted /boot for instance... [09:05] (or you could use linux-headers-$(uname -r) ) [09:05] or run uname -r first [09:06] (don't ask me why I decided to format /boot as XFS... couldn't tell ya) [09:06] good then I hope it will not fails for that too :-( [09:06] Pozac: no... that adds another step... [09:06] Pozac or crimsun You guys know how I can completely wipe my network settings and reconfigure them from scratch? [09:06] ycco: yeah, you'll be cleaning out /etc/network/interfaces [09:07] crimsun: no worries [09:07] ycco: rm /etc/network/interfaces && touch /etc/network interfaces [09:07] although I don't recommend it [09:07] hmm [09:07] heh, the localization on my ubuntu is so majorly messed up :O [09:07] crimsun: I just want to start fresh like it's a new install (regarding network) [09:07] english, norwegian bokml, norwegian nynorks, danish, and swedish [09:07] Pozac: regex is very handy to learn :) [09:07] one never know what language the next message will be in [09:07] ycco: then you'll want at least lo up [09:07] s/know/knows [09:08] trench, s/handy/slow [09:08] crimsun: nothing I can reconfigure or something? [09:08] dud: ROFL [09:08] dpkg-reconfigure network or some crap. [09:08] heh [09:08] ycco: well, it should start with at least: auto lo\niface lo inet loopback [09:08] trey3, i'm not saying we should substitute this app for nautilus but I sure love how fast 'gentoo' FM is..loads fast works fast and its VERY configurable..maybe if it had a nicer UI it might be the ticket....then again maybe they are working on speeeding up nautilus ..LOL [09:09] ubuntu's norwegian localization is... incomplete to say the least ;) [09:09] nautilus is not slow [09:09] speaking of which..how do I turn off 'icon' view of files in nautilus...?? [09:09] 'gentoo' rocks, as does 'rox-filer' [09:09] crimsun: I really don't understand any of the interface stuff. For years I've just done: ifconfig eth0 10.10.0.x route add default gw 10.10.0.1 [09:09] crimsun: and it's just worked. [09:09] crimsun, agreed [09:09] neighborlee, in the prefs? [09:09] Cloudchaser, is it any good? [09:09] but with rosetta being a bit funky as of lately, its a bitch to translate... [09:09] Pozac, nope i've looked..can't find it === Gwaihir [~Gwaihir@ppp-134-91.25-151.libero.it] has joined #ubuntu [09:09] Gwildor|Work, the adobe reader? [09:09] neighborlee: Woah!

[09:09] neighborlee: they are... gnome will never use gnomba over nautilus though... nautilus does entirely too much... [09:10] bretzel, nope I mean the gentoo file manager ;-)) [09:10] Gentoo Filemanager oops! [09:10] ycco: I presume your can set your router/modem to hand out dhcp leases, though? (most do by default) [09:10] i guess so...i needed to install the plug-in to view a college catalog page... [09:10] neighborlee, no 'Preview' tab ?? [09:10] i can't even install openbox in ubuntu - nor find it with apt-cache [09:10] hahaha [09:10] trey3, gnomba?? [09:10] presume you^, rather [09:10] trey3, yeah it does a bit too much [09:10] crimsun: No... I don't have that setup. [09:10] neighborlee: for instance... nautilus handles everything you see on the desktop thats not on a panel (icons, wallpaper etc)... [09:10] seemed to work fine [09:10] Cloudchaser, kk, thnx, i was just getting the XP reader today, and saw it.....thnx [09:10] haven't played with it much..just got it yesterday [09:10] neighborlee: nah... it does what its meant to do... its the desktop shell... [09:10] crimsun: a friend helped me setup a firewall and such.... and all I do is just give the box an ip. [09:10] heh [09:10] its in the repos [09:11] not sure which one, but one i have installed anyway ;) [09:11] trey3, you just said it does too much [09:11] sudo apt-get install acroread-plugin [09:11] can someone tell me why i can not find openbox with apt-cache search openbox ? [09:11] anyhoo..... :/ [09:11] will get the reader too [09:11] neighborlee: people who consider it a file manager are terribly mislead... it also handles error messages etc too... it does everything bash does for the terminal... [09:11] im never buying a celeron again... [09:11] I just started the Help program in Hoary. I must say that the gnome people have been doing some real good job! It looks very good! (2.9.3) [09:11] neighborlee: I said it does too much to be replaced by gnomba... [09:11] cant wait to get my amd 64bit cpu running [09:12] trey3, that may well be but it is the defaut gnome file manager ... [09:12] trey3, and its too slow [09:12] neenee, enable the universe repository [09:12] Pozac: ok [09:12] neighborlee: its not a file manager... its a desktop shell... very different...

[09:13] ycco: presuming of course that you replace the 'x' with the integer [09:13] yeah! trey3: Lilo went well!!!! but I forgot that I have winxp and I must redo lilo in the mbr of my master disk... hopefully === abelli [~abelli@84.222.38.178] has joined #ubuntu [09:13] trey3, irrelvant since its being 'used' as one [09:13] neighborlee: on this box... explorer is less responsive...

[09:16] well found out what's wrong [09:16] crimsun: well, the installer was no problem since i knew it from debian. it's just that i had to mess with universe and such before i could get the packages i wanted [09:16] trey3, who is talking out their arse ? [09:16] neighborlee: you are. [09:17] trey3, how rude man [09:17] crimsun: as soon as i have X up and running with my settings i have a backup of, i probably won't complain anymore.

[09:38] Stew2, it involves changing the 'driver' part of the Device section in /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 [09:39] trey3, your comment sure sounded like I should go RTFM ..if I was wrong I appologise but I truly thought from the comment ( one danger of IRC) that you were..anyway peace bro [09:39] pozac can I run a video config program for X from a terminal or GNOME and tell it Vesa? then switch the card out? [09:39] neighborlee: good show [09:39] pozac I don't know what kind of card i'm installing. Is there an autodetect? [09:40] Stew2: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg is about your best option (replace xorg with xfree86 if warty) [09:40] Stew2, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86 [09:40] trey3 I run that with X shut down? [09:40] then you can choose vesa from the list [09:41] not needed [09:41] Stew2: what I just said will ask you whether you want it to try autodetect [09:41] it will pick it up when X is restarted [09:41] Stew2: doesn't really matter... just need to restart to take effect... [09:41] Trey3 Pozac I also want to know how you're running xorg. I understand that's in Hoary. How do I update from warty to hoary? I already installed the backports. [09:41] Pozac: ahh...

So Firefox is at least up to 1.x [09:45] grr [09:46] Stew2: ahh... ok... [09:46] randabis-wireles, no luck? [09:46] randabis-wireles, are you still trying for 2.6.10 ? :) [09:47] trey3 I read it. I followed it with my eyes. It was a little confusing. Just cause you'all say I shouldn't switch to hoary yet... I've got to tell you, installing warty was no fun. For some reason, the fonts for X were never installed (default installation). So X wouldn't start. I had never troubleshooted X under warty/ubuntu/debian before. [09:47] hmm it *might* be an ubuntu problem... [09:47] randabis-wireles: you know... there are reasons 2.6.10 isn't already in the archive... I'm betting what you're experiencing is one such reason ;) [09:47] Stew2, download todays hoary iso and start over then :) [09:47] if i post the error in #flood could someone look at it? === thomerz [~thomerz@N507P010.adsl.highway.telekom.at] has joined #ubuntu [09:48] hmm, seems my isp loves me today [09:48] Cloudchaser: sure [09:48] pozac would if I had some cd's and a burner.

I thought the problem was acpi related so I removed the acpi module, but it still crashes. [11:35] Is it a good idea to add /etc/acpi/power.sh to /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc? [11:35] sap, tried apmd ? [11:35] zAo^: nope === zAo^ brb [11:36] zAo^: I thought GDM used /etc/X11/gdm/Init/Default? [11:37] zAo^: ie didn't really care who starts it... [11:37] is there anything I can look at (log etc) to get some idea about what might be causing the problem? [11:38] xcdroast doesnt really seem sane... [11:38] max write speed of 92x :O [11:38] and the only write mode it is able to do it RAW [11:38] no DAO or TAO [11:39] mistic: omg aria have the most stupid fonts i have ever see === xav_ [~xav@AFontenayssB-151-1-40-240.w83-114.abo.wanadoo.fr] has joined #ubuntu [11:39] hi [11:39] I was telling my self that the password prompt on sudo is useless for my user account, because it would not make a difference for me that somebody do a sudo rm -fr / or a rm -fr ~/ in my back === randabis is now known as Pickles === Pickles is now known as randabis [11:40] I've just made a fresh ubuntu install, but I've already some problems [11:40] what is your opinion about that ? :) [11:40] totem hangs when I launch it [11:40] xav_: run from terminal and tell is what it says. [11:41] ** (totem:6864): WARNING **: don't know how to handle video/mpeg, mpegversion=(int)1, systemstream=(boolean)false [11:41] ** (totem:6864): WARNING **: don't know how to handle audio/mpeg, mpegversion=(int)1 [11:41] whats prodvd support in xcdroast? [11:41] try totem-xine [11:42] xav_: http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/RestrictedFormats under "Where to get DVDCSS/xvid/other legally questionable packages" [11:42] What script starts the X server? xserver-xfree86 sets ups directories and sockets, gdm only starts gdm? [11:42] Not sure why that would be making totem crash though? [11:43] hmm the first time it worked [11:43] I tried to play a movie === erik_il_rosso [~michelang@213.188.219.162] has left #ubuntu ["Leaving"] [11:43] and since that, it crashed each time [11:43] Tomcat_: /etc/X11/Xsession by default... [11:43] hmm and it seems rythmbox crash too === Keybuk [scott@descent.netsplit.com] has joined #ubuntu [11:44] I already read this page [11:44] trey3: Who calls Xsession then? :o [11:44] but I've troubles too :) [11:45] Tomcat_: the X executable I presume? :/ [11:45] trey3: That's the question... I really want to know how X gets started after boot... [11:46] Tomcat_: ahh... /etc/init.d/gdm :) [11:46] So gdm starts X? :o [11:46] Okay then... :) [11:46] Tomcat_: cat /etc/init.d/gdm :/ === JanC [~JanC@D57620C2.kabel.telenet.be] has joined #ubuntu [11:47] trey3: That only starts the gdm binary, and the man page won't tell me if the binary starts the X server... [11:47] I just hope I can add something to /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc to get executed just after the X server starts... [11:47] I can't fine xine [11:47] it's normal? [11:48] find [11:48] trey3: i found the reason for my problem! [11:48] xav_: Yeah, it's somewhere in universe or multiverse [11:48] I added marillat and cerkinfo rep [11:48] in synaptic [11:48] it added some package like libdvdcss but not xine [11:48] I added multiverse too [11:48] xav_: Did you also add Ubuntu universe and multiverse? [11:49] not universe [11:49] xine-ui is universe. === IBOIC [Ubuntu@207-38-252-211.c3-0.wsd-ubr1.qens-wsd.ny.cable.rcn.com] has joined #ubuntu [11:49] can ubuntu work off the bsd core instead of linux ? :) [11:49] Tomcat_: you can... or even just state new things in ~/.xsession ;) [11:49] a ubuntu verison of bsd would be sweet [11:50] linux is too disorganized [11:50] patches here, there [11:50] no engineering model === VirtualDarKness [~vrDarKnes@host95-182.pool62211.interbusiness.it] has joined #ubuntu [11:51] Tomcat_, thanks a lot [11:52] my box fiels 'laggy', though I have direct rendering; will a costum kernel solve my problem (XP 2100, 1GB, Radeon 9600 Pro) ? === hno73 [~Henrik@henrik.gotadsl.co.uk] has left #ubuntu [] [11:52] IBOIC: doubtful... udev for example wouldn't work... discover doesn't work on bsd's... neither does hotplug... list goes on... [11:53] IBOIC: Debian is being ported to NetBSD and FreeBSD though... :/ [11:53] hmmm [11:53] trey3, under what name? [11:53] trey3: see i like bsd [11:53] i know the world seems to be fixated on linux [11:54] i wish there would be a more consumer friendly bsd [11:54] using the bsd code and adding on to it [11:54] would like competition [11:54] its called OS X :) [11:54] no1 on my 'kernel-question'? [11:54] zAo^: http://www.debian.org/ports/ <-- at the bottem [11:54] thanks [11:54] IBOIC: Ubuntu is very Linux centric [11:55] trey3: yeah i guess [11:55] linux is good dont get me wrong [11:55] bsd though has a cleaner engineering model tho so it just works [11:56] and I still have a problem with mplayer [11:56] but you can't get drivers for a lot of stuff [11:56] kezz drivers can be ported [11:56] it seems that it has some deps with newer version of some programs [11:56] I only have older version of these packages available [11:56] IBOIC, oh sure but at what cost [11:56] the media is focusing on linux wish bsd would get more attention :( [11:57] I'm going to try that NetBSD port, thanks :) === sensebend [~sensebend@CPE0050f2c2257d-CM014480023927.cpe.net.cable.rogers.com] has joined #ubuntu [11:57] did anyone install mplayer? [11:57] I did, y? [11:57] did you read me? [11:57] xav_: yes, working great here [11:57] IBOIC: the BSD's allow people to steal from them... no company would ever form a business model around that, thus BSD will never be invested in in the same manner [11:58] some rep are maybe missing [11:58] which one do I need? [11:58] did you use apt? [11:58] no but its the same [11:58] with apt-get or synaptic [11:58] xav_: do you use warty or hoary? [11:58] it fails because of dependancies missing [11:58] warty [11:58] try this one in /etc/apt/sources.list [11:58] deb ftp://ftp.nerim.net/debian-marillat/ stable main [11:58] deb ftp://ftp.nerim.net/debian-marillat/ testing main [11:58] deb ftp://ftp.nerim.net/debian-marillat/ unstable main [11:59] xav_: have a look at https://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/InstallingMplayerFromHoaryInWarty === zorixe [~zorixe@menilmontant-1-81-57-40-7.fbx.proxad.net] has joined #ubuntu [11:59] BSD style licences allow one to fork and keep changes private right? [11:59] hi [11:59] lo [11:59] IBOIC: without corporate investments you don't get advertising... with advertising you don't get mainstream focus [11:59] sensebend, yes [11:59] siretart, hoary is newer? [11:59] yes xav_ [11:59] is there a way to make apt-get not update the kernel when a new rev is available ? [11:59] how do I get it? [11:59] does anyone manage to make wine work under ubuntu? [11:59] I've to change the source file? [11:59] I did ZzeCoOl [11:59] sensebend: yes... so long as you still publish the license with the work...
