[01:08] where you said it was garbage [01:08] vasi: the rule of thumb is 2*ram should be your swap size. [01:09] OK, here's my issue: I imported some captured video into Kino. I've encoded it using the mpeg2enc/mp2enc method. Audio is spot-on at the beginning, but after about an hour of video the audio is off by, say, 3 seconds(!) I've tried deinterlacing the video, same result, and I've tried different audio sampling rates, and I've even tried using the ffmpeg scripts inclded with Kino. I'm a bit confused. :-/ [01:09] vasi, but that is just a "rule of thumb" [01:09] vasi, i have 1g of ram and keep 1g of swap [01:09] vasi: sorry but I do not know where you could learn more about swapping, if I were you and I were interested on that matter, I would try googling with keywords, linux, swapping, swap, swapspace, and so on [01:09] scoon, please! [01:09] and maybe "how does linux use swap" or something.. [01:09] kbrooks, ? [01:09] is it possible to put swap in a file (or multiple files) on my root partition, like OS X does? so that way there's no hard limit....anyway, i've been googling it, it's hard to find good info, i'll keep trying [01:10] vasi: it is possible, but I dont remember how you did that :D [01:10] scoon, too much is too much [01:10] it must be very simple indeed [01:10] kbrooks, you are correct. try reading before attacking [01:10] scoon: well, have you ever utilized that swap even a bit :) [01:10] kbrooks, i said "rule of thumb" [01:11] scoon, ok. fine then. [01:11] thenuke, nope. but w/ 160gigs [01:11] kbrooks, but i was just stating a rule of thumb [01:11] keyshawn2: we can't find any other info than i550, thanks for your link, though we can't see our printer there strangely... [01:11] i set up 1gig of swap and I have 1 gig of memory [01:11] that rule of a thumb is not wise ;D [01:11] atleast me thinks so [01:11] if 99.5% of ppl have no reason following it :P [01:11] thenuke, what if you only have 256m of ram. [01:11] we should correct that rule a bit [01:12] thenuke, learn what "rule of thumb" means [01:12] scoon: I have 64megs, and run a modified X and a fluxbox and so on, and I think I have never needed any swap ;D [01:12] vasi: yes, thats possible. you use dd to create the swapfile, then mkswap on it, and finally swapon. [01:12] SCube, is it growable? or do i have to grow it manually? [01:12] thenuke, good for you. [01:13] thanks btw :-) [01:13] thenuke, is that your primary box ? [01:13] no, I use that box for firefox and such [01:13] printer: try here - http://www.linuxquestions.org/hcl/showproduct.php?product=702 [01:13] thenuke, what do you use it for. internet, email, or anything else ? === HillTop [~chatzilla@dt060n09.san.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu [01:13] whats the package that pretty much gives you everything need to run make [01:13] anyways, if I had 256megs of ram, I think about 256M of swap would be enough [01:13] it says to use the bjc 800 driver instead. [01:13] but to be sure I would have 512M of swap or more [01:13] vasi: It is not growable on the fly. You must select the file size when you create it. [01:14] thenuke, again, "rule of thumb" comes into play.

[04:13] jdub: what is "hal" short for? i can't find pertinent info on google. i'm trying to understand how it works, so i can see whether there's a way to make it work apart from gvm, more like autofs.

[04:15] it is not [04:15] again, please start asking questions before making claims [04:15] i'd like to not go back to windows, so i'm looking for ways to run apps [04:15] it seems to be intimately tied to gui. === thisfred_ [~thisfred@a80-127-80-154.adsl.xs4all.nl] has joined #ubuntu [04:15] g-v-m provides user-defined policy [04:15] it is not [04:15] otter: maybe you should try looking for replacements? what kind of apps?

[04:16] BROKEN_LADDER: jeff says, ask questions before making claims, that's just plain wrong [04:16] it is configured by a gui [04:16] magnon: i didn't make a claim. [04:16] bennyp, i hope it is a sound font problem [04:16] there is one specialty app for a photo lens [04:16] but the download is slow... [04:16] the g in gvm is "gnome" no? [04:16] an app for a photo _lens_? [04:16] BROKEN_LADDER: yes, there are concurrency issues, it's currently designed for use on single-user machines [04:16] so gvm works fine even if i'm not running x? [04:16] BROKEN_LADDER: yes [04:16] remotereality.com [04:16] it wouldnt be soundfonts, you want the hardware synth (sblive wavetable) to render the sound [04:16] BROKEN_LADDER: yes [04:16] can anyone think of a reason why xmms isnt in apt-cache but all the xmms plugins are? [04:16] okay. [04:16] it's a panoramic lens [04:17] otter: Ah. [04:17] CLucas916, damn it! [04:17] can ubuntu run wine? [04:17] at least rtfm [04:17] i guess the concurrency issue isn't really it's fault though, since having to start extra x servers to have more than one user switch between x sessions is a bit of a terrible hack. [04:17] otter: yeah, it can [04:17] copy the sound parts from /etc/modules.conf into /etc/modutils/alsa and run update-modules [04:17] kbrooks, dude. thats not it [04:17] is wine the best option? [04:17] read the ubuntu guide, CLucas916 [04:18] otter, there is cedega, and wine-x [04:18] but they both cost money, right? [04:18] BROKEN_LADDER: ... that's not the reason why there are concurrency problems, and no, multiple X servers for separate sessions is also not a terrible hack [04:18] otter, and also crossover [04:18] otter: send the company an email and ask them for a linux version ;) [04:18] BROKEN_LADDER: again, ask questions before making claims [04:18] it's quite a terrible hack.

[04:19] BROKEN_LADDER: you're not backing up your claims particularly well, and given past comments from you, i'm assuming you're misinformed again. [04:19] if i'm logging into gdm, gnome should just present my gnome session to me on that same x server, and display the gdm again if i go to screen saver, or want to switch users. [04:19] he is, it's free software that someone voluntarily did they're best to create [04:20] BROKEN_LADDER: that's true, but that has nothing to do with the mechanics of the X servers involved [04:20] and I think it's pretty arrogant to bash it. [04:20] it should work, terrible as this sounds, like the winxp login screen. [04:20] anyone know how to set up a 2nd monitor? under 'nvidia-settings' it only lists the CRT, but not the LCD [04:20] i'm not bashing it, it's just not mature yet.

[04:21] magnon, yes, he is..... [04:21] BROKEN_LADDER: again, you need to ask questions to find out what you're talking about before making claims. [04:21] bennyp, WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORKS [04:21] it was a sound fonts problem [04:21] you are opening up a new xserver for a new user to log in and use gnome. that's reprehensibly bad design. [04:21] no it's not [04:21] wh? [04:21] bennyp, thank you a lot [04:22] thundrcleeze: probably because your monitor doesn't return any information when asked what refresh-rates it supports. Ubuntu has to just guess the lowest possible in that case [04:22] BROKEN_LADDER, no it is not. [04:22] that's pretty much intentional [04:22] it's secure, it's the optimal model for X [04:22] BROKEN_LADDER, do you know how many security flaws there is with using the same session?

[04:27] BROKEN_LADDER: because we're doing a demonstration for you [04:27] broken_ladder, you could change the font on your computer to an all-caps font... [04:27] sladen: so esddsp is not a program? I looked for it in synaptic, all I find via google is some vague commands [04:27] that's a hack. [04:27] people shouldn't use lowercase letters. [04:27] BROKEN_LADDER: it is all entirely safe, i'm not asking you to do anything dangerous. [04:28] i hate having to turn caps lock off in irc.

[04:28] caleb_, i prefer xmms [04:28] it would make it easier to find my way around the terminal if you could tell me why my arrow keys don't work whenever i start gnome. [04:28] at least until i change something, anything, in keyboard settings. [04:28] don't know, sounds like a good bug for you to file. [04:29] CLucas916: thats cool. I'm really liking muine and, at times, rhythmbox [04:29] my left key is being read as XF86AudioPrev [04:29] ahh finially i got it [04:30] if anyone else wants to do the demo too, install xnest :-) [04:30] broken...: what type of keyboard do you have? === Ex-Cyber installs xnest [04:30] any hoary users in here?

[04:31] heliolith: no restarting GNOME [04:31] CLucas916: we're post upstream-version-freeze now, so the upgrade load is better now [04:31] oh cool [04:31] Question: Has anyone gotten APM to work with HP Pavilion Laptops? (view battery level to be specific) OR gotten the FN keys to work? [04:31] sladen so in my autolaunch icon thing I can type esddsp audacity instead of just typing audacity? [04:31] broken: XF86AudioPrev is normally a special key on an extended keyboard. What type of keyboard do you have? [04:32] xnest has unmet dependencies, which it didn't install.

[04:36] heliolith: no idea. btw, which sound chipset do you have---some can only run at a particular bitrate+frequency [04:36] maybe you could provide some feedback. [04:37] i'm using the default dvorak keymap with some third level stuff for typing esperanto characters. [04:37] sladen: where do i find my sound/chipset?

[04:38] BROKEN_LADDER: i'd suggest filing this as a bug [04:38] broken: interesting. I'm still puzzled how the weird keys are generated [04:38] every time i start up, my arrow keys don't work, and instead they act like next and previous, causing rhythmbox, for instance, to do just that. [04:38] i.e. not k3b [04:38] CLucas916: none in ubuntu atm [04:38] they are third level keys. [04:38] CLucas916: though graveman has just been uploaded into hoary universe [04:38] wow [04:38] i can show a sample line from my xkb file. [04:38] ok [04:38] CLucas916: there are a number of projects working on it, but none are ready for release (or are in hoary) [04:38] CLucas916: it's a nice black hole atm ;) [04:38] CLucas916: but nautilus-cd-burner is great if you just want to do data cds [04:38] lol === magnon waits anxiously for coaster [04:39] BROKEN_LADDER: can you file a buy, and upload your custom xkb, and some sample xev output before/after [04:39] key { [ g, G, gcircumflex, Gcircumflex ] }; [04:39] this allows me to type [04:39] BROKEN_LADDER: please file this as a bug, that's where it will be most useful [04:39] sladen: define the 'default dvorak keymap'.

[04:40] broken: "with some third level stuff" ? [04:40] it's just the keymap i'm using. [04:40] BROKEN_LADDER: there are many ways to configure dvorak, some of them quite badly misguided (including 'dvorak') [04:40] it's done using xkb [04:40] FLeiXiuS: hooray for being busy === njan [~james@80.68.83.50] has joined #ubuntu [04:41] acually, no i changed my xfree86 config file to using dvorak. it just says dvorak instead of us or whatever. so it uses the file /etc/X11/xkb/symbols/pc/dvorak [04:42] i don't see anything about filing bugs in the topic.

[04:42] sladen, I don't see a computer->settings->display and daniels, In windows I can get 1280x1024 @85hz and here it only reports I can do it at 60, is there a way to force it or is it the driver that only supports 60?

[08:10] you mentioned a direct connection. [08:10] i'm asking about mounting. [08:11] what do you think you're doing when mounting? [08:11] making a remote directory accessible und /mnt [08:11] and how is this done? [08:11] using smbfs [08:11] smbmount [08:11] no, dude [08:11] what happens underneath... [08:12] i will give you a clue: you make a direct connection to the server [08:12] there is a protocol called samba. [08:12] hi jdub [08:12] morning stuNNed [08:12] ssh is used to map a local port to the remote machine on which the share is located. [08:13] morning jdub, going to bed shortly here in southern central us :) have a good one [08:13] i have no idea why you're discussing the underlying mechanisms of the protocol.

[08:13] funk, yes regular CD [08:13] sheesh dude [08:13] you're talking about tunnelling cifs over ssh [08:13] what burn speed?

[08:14] quality discs right? [08:14] cifs? [08:14] of course it does [08:14] yes [08:14] employ [08:14] that's precisely what it says it does, and i've confirmed that repeatedly to you [08:14] so why do you keep bringing up this "direct connection" stuff? [08:14] I have burnt severeal other images on the same quality disks [08:15] hmm It doens't even attempt to boot the disc or it hangs? [08:15] you keep talking about direct connections. [08:15] i've got a "direct connection" to google's web servers right now. [08:15] BROKEN_LADDER: because that's what you're doing. you are making a direct connection to the samba server, you do not need to browse. [08:15] it attempt to boot the discs and then goes to the HDD booting (the second priority device) [08:15] okay, now i see what you're saying. [08:15] i'm not trying to get a list of available shares. [08:15] i know the name. [08:15] I think daniels died...hehe [08:15] but the second priority device does not have grub installed in MBR (for FC1) [08:16] well i'm getting significant problems.

[09:31] you can easily search for the packages you want [09:31] probably nothing, probably you just want to add universe to apt sources (via synaptic or editing sources.list) [09:31] it's a frontend to apt-get === Specialized [~Specializ@tux.wilhelm.softwarezentrum.de] has joined #ubuntu [09:31] and apt-get install build-essential if you want gcc and stuff [09:32] see, where did I miss how to do those parts? === BROKEN_LADDER [~PRIVATE@adsl-68-120-131-237.dsl.snfc21.pacbell.net] has joined #UBUNTU [09:33] so all i need to do is apt-get install build-essential [09:33] and apt-get install synaptic [09:33] off this fresh install?

[09:38] svenl: the compiler is on the CD [09:38] Couldn't I just sudo apt-get gcc install? [09:39] martok: the build-essential is a wrapper package for gcc and g++ etc. [09:39] Oh, ok. I wasn't sure.

[09:41] liquidhex: libncurses-dev [09:41] ajmitch: you rule [09:41] thanks [09:41] Mmm, i guess my booting problems are because my bios numbers disks differently than linux :/ [09:42] I have like 8 repositories. [09:42] martok: remove the CD from the list of sources. [09:42] It's not on the list. [09:43] Oh wait. [09:43] Yeah it is. [09:43] Mmm, even when rebooting to 2.6.10, still no DVD dma setting.

Well, I have just tried installing ubuntu. The first stage of the install went sweet. However on reboot, GRUB reports an error 18. Not sure what this means or how to correct it, any thoughts? [10:09] Is it on a laptop? [10:09] No, on a desktop PC. [10:10] SolitudeX: when does grub report the error, before or after giving you boot options? [10:10] I am not so hot with GRUB - I used to use LILO. Heh go figure. [10:10] It says "GRUB Loading stage1.5" "GRUB loading, please wait..." "Error 18". [10:11] So I would assume before it gives me boot options. [10:11] Hmm... [10:11] I've had a similar error trying to boot the Live CD.

I'm just finishing compiling 2.6.10, and I copied bzImage to /boot/grub/kernel-2.6.10 .. where is the initrd file though for my new kernel? [10:20] duckdown, you have to create it if you need it [10:21] but if you compiled support for all your file systems into the kernel you don't need it. [10:21] Hrm [10:21] (just leave that entry out of menu.1st) [10:21] why does the default menu.lst contain so many of them [10:22] for all of the default booting [10:22] because when people write distros they can't tailor the kernel to peoples machines and they don't want to compile in hundreds of modules. [10:22] Oh :] [10:23] thanks.. i guess ill try without it when this is done compiling [10:23] duckdown, you didn't overwrite your current kernel did you? [10:23] mkinitrd is the command to make a initrd [10:23] Falstius: god no [10:23] hehe [10:24] duckdown: then try and see is a valid option :) [10:24] :> === thoreauputic [~debianarc@wolax8-187.dialup.optusnet.com.au] has joined #ubuntu [10:24] odds are it won't boot without an initrd unless you made sure to include everything you need in the kernel [10:25] d0h [10:25] Well say it doesn't boot, isn't this initrd.gz file created at the time of compiling? so I can just copy it to /boot/grub and add a initrd= entry under my new kernel? === EvolutionR [EvolutionR@218.111.193.227] has joined #ubuntu === EvolutionR [EvolutionR@218.111.193.227] has left #ubuntu [] === da_bon_bon [~rohandhru@210.18.160.134] has joined #ubuntu === martink [~martin@pD9EB2BDD.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #ubuntu [10:28] duckdown it isn't created at compile unless you tell it to create one [10:29] anyone know the command to check which video driver is running? === EvolutionR [EvolutionR@218.111.193.227] has joined #ubuntu [10:29] From Arctic: if you are using a dsl-router, a dns-server-bug in the 2.6 kernel is the most problable troublemaker (=constant flooding protection by kernel, although there is no flooding). i am suffering from it, too. you can do two three things: <=is that true kernel 2.6 have the bug? === qbeek [~qbeek@sete.idealx.com] has joined #ubuntu [10:32] EH?

[10:48] Falstius: and it worked fine in cdrecord with dvd patch on real debian, so i am baffled.

Is there a way to sudo open a folder through the gui? [07:21] These are just workstations, not critical servers or anything. [07:21] can you maybe use nautilus for this? [07:21] Stew2: *DON'T* tell them to log in as root! [07:21] HappyFool That's what I meant.

I don't want them to have to drop to a terminal to act as root when changing permissions, etc. I'd like them to be able to do that through the file mangler, in this case, nautilus. [07:26] HappyFool: It's not that they don't understand the gravity of what they are doing by changing permissions, they are human beings. They're just not programmers and not used to having to do anything from the command line. [07:27] HappyFool: They are already enthusiastic about Ubuntu and linux/open source in general. I'm helping there enthusiasm. [07:27] there=their [07:27] but it won't be that hard to teach them something about terminal use [07:27] Stew2: a script in your menu that asks for a password to run nautilus in "admin" mode would be relatively simple [07:27] even a little [07:28] Fator_Dee: Mabye, mabye not. These people -aren't- programmers. Neither am I, although I've compiled mplayer and done a little bit of stuff. [07:28] Fator_Dee: With the ubuntu distro, I'm really stressing the 'human' side of it. [07:28] Stew2: look for some on-line tuts for "introduction to linux". try en.tldp.org. and, if the machines are networked, consider running sshd so you can shell in to do admin [07:30] 19:29 < froud> /usr/bin/debootstrap: 1: echo: not found [07:30] 19:29 < froud> Segmentation Fault [07:30] HappyFool: I'll be in sweden. These machines are behind a router and I don't have port forwarding turned on. I'm showing how they can 'sudo nautilus'. If they screw it up, stick the install cd in from the distro and start over (and don't do whatever you did again, or ask first on google/linux or #ubuntu) [07:30] can anyone help? [07:30] Stew2: there's a program "gksu" that pops up a dialog box to ask for a password, for instance, though I think that requires a root password [07:30] Stew2: at least tell them about man [07:30] could be something similar for sudo [07:30] oh, there's a gksudo as well [07:30] <_4strO> I'm listening -- Title: ( /mnt/musique1/MUSIQUE I/FUNK - SOUL/Craig David - Slicker Than Your Average/ - ) Time: ( 2:05/3:53 (53%) ) BitRate: ( 192 kbit/s - 44100 Hz ) Volume: ( 100% ) [07:30] thoreauputic: That might work then, thanks. Like I said, this isn't some all-important terminal server. [07:30] aha! [07:30] look at the entry for "Root terminal" [07:31] gksudo would be it [07:31] Stew2: gksudo should make it easy for the user to go to Nautilus as superuser -- no terminals needed [07:31] So I run this app, gksudo, it asks me for the app I want to run? === zenwhen [zenwhen@h-67-102-63-103.phlapafg.covad.net] has joined #ubuntu === WindowsUninstall [~WindowsUn@a-po6-86.tin.it] has joined #ubuntu === KingCiro [~asdasd@201.254.9.56] has left #ubuntu [] === Dko [~jesse@roc-24-169-209-65.rochester.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu [07:32] Stew2: I think you would do "gksudo nautilus" as a script [07:32] no, not even [07:32] http://g-scripts.sourceforge.net/ [07:32] so you make a menu entry for that [07:33] there are ready nautilus scripts for that [07:33] Stew2: go Applications->System Tools->Root terminal (but don't left click!) -> Properties [07:33] Well I finnaly I finnaly figured out how to get the startup script to work. Had to delete the two lines that had link and ulink in them. [07:33] right, OK, I don't use them but that's good :) [07:33] you can copy that menu entry for a superuser nautilus [07:34] or just to Applications->Run Application... and type 'gksudo nautilus' === JanC [~JanC@dD5764FD7.access.telenet.be] has joined #ubuntu [07:36] http://g-scripts.sourceforge.net/nautilus-scripts/Execute/root-nautilus-here [07:36] says to install in my ~/Nautilus/scripts directory.

[11:47] froust, I think a better way to get X working well is to do this: log out, shut down GDM, do "X -configure" as root and then copy the resulting /root/XF86Config to /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 or xorg.conf (depending whether you run X.Org or XFree) [11:47] ive done an rm /etc/ without meaning to... and now ubuntu doesnt boot [11:47] :S [11:47] sucks [11:47] :'( [11:47] BockBilbo, oops..your installation is hosed :( [11:47] fraggsta: i just installed the new ati drivers - does that matter, or should i still try x -configure [11:47] BockBilbo: "runlevels config?"
