[03:23] jcarr_: ubuntu just gives you simple, straight to the point options [03:23] its pretty cutting edge too [03:24] jcarr_: ubuntu seems much more oriented to the desktop user [03:24] cool [03:24] BockBilbo: publish your public key to a keyserver (export in seahorse) [03:24] Success! [03:24] hmmph... [03:24] man I'm so glad everything's going good now. [03:24] and the community is generally helpful and supportive [03:24] because I'm looking to get my coworker hooked on linux, and I think debian is the best, but Debian Sid is, shall we say, harsh for the newbie [03:24] let him try ubuntu livecd [03:24] BockBilbo: But better to give out your public key personally [03:25] yeah, it's what I'm downloading [03:25] ubuntu is great for n00bs and experienced users alike [03:25] i'm a n00b ;( [03:25] mcphail, what do you mean by giving out my public key personally? [03:25] My X hangs right after I pass the login screen... [03:25] MrTrick: glad you got it [03:25] I'm no linux master, but I surpassed n00b status long ago :p [03:25] :| [03:25] do i need to move linux-headers into the linux-source directory? [03:25] I learn more and more each day [03:26] heh [03:26] BockBilbo: if you give out your key to everyone who needs it, they van trust it comes from you and hasn't been spoofed [03:26] linux-headers should already be in the source directory [03:26] cool, so you can tell me how to update only x.org from hoary and leave everything else warty :| [03:26] i see [03:26] randabis, so much for stuff working... [03:26] do you know any good keyserver? === kuik [~kuik@200.92.41.177] has joined #ubuntu [03:26] oficina, when I pasted your text in, I accidentally put it under 'format' instead of 'options' [03:26] hams do you mean /usr/src or /usr/src/linux? [03:26] Debian has too many distros based on it... of course, probably because Debian is permanently in unstable/experimental [03:26] how do I install all the basic tools for development on an ubuntu system? (ie make, gcc etc) [03:26] linux-headers should be in /usr/src/ [03:26] BockBilbo: they all link up together after a few days [03:26] heh... Debian Stable ships with good old KDE 2.2 [03:27] i think knoppix has tons more :| [03:27] BockBilbo: look in ~/.gpg/gpg.conf [03:27] BockBilbo: publish to any one [03:27] anyone? [03:27] they do not need to be moved into the kernel source directory [03:27] how is ubuntu's hardware detection?

[03:27] randabis, i did apt-get install linux-source-xxxx and then apt-get install linux-headers-xxx, but that seems to have failed horribly [03:27] jcarr_: excellent [03:27] okay, so now to get samba working... [03:27] BockBilbo: just takes a few days to update [03:28] froust: how serious is it? can you get to a virtual terminal? [03:28] can i un- apt-get something? [03:28] jcarr_, yeah it rocks [03:28] Under gnome, is there a keyboard shortcut to change workspace? [03:28] hams sudo apt-get remove [03:28] bitfoo you can't update to x.org and keep warty packages...you'll cause severe breakage [03:28] hams I doubt it failed [03:28] oh :( [03:28] farruinn: i'm at a vty now... I just can't get x working... it hangs after the login screen. [03:28] breakage is not the nice :/ [03:28] ok [03:28] anybody friggin smart here? I gotta challange for you [03:28] you just don't know about it [03:28] the answer is 3.14 [03:28] :| [03:29] oficina, No, but I can have fun telling that I don't know the answer. [03:29] when you install linux-source, it does not extract the source...it merely places a tarball into the /usr/src/ directory [03:29] randabis, i untarred the source archive after i install the linux headers, so i don't think it worked corectly. [03:29] mcphail, which one do u use? [03:29] froust: try logging into one of the failsafe sessions [03:29] it should have... you should have a linux source directory and a linux headers directory [03:29] http://pgp.mit.edu/ ? [03:29] is that what you have? [03:29] BockBilbo: that one is fine [03:30] farruinn: same thing happens. [03:30] it happened right after i updated [03:30] this is hoary I take it? [03:30] olBockBilbo: not http, hkp, horowitz key protocol, not hypertext transfer protoc [03:30] yes [03:30] ok [03:30] and then [03:30] BockBilbo: hkp:// [03:31] everything will be done right?? [03:31] BockBilbo: seahorse should do this automatically [03:31] hkp??? is that a protocol? [03:31] froust if your X is hanging, it might have to do with your driver [03:31] When trying to get in another computer on my network, I keep on getting thi [03:31] *this [03:31] You do not have the permissions necessary to view the contents of "Windows Network: drtyuiii-oxotk9". [03:31] randabis: would that make sense if he can get to the login screen though? [03:31] randbis, i had a .bz2 of the kernel source and a directory called linux-header-2.6.8.1-4 and linux-headers-2.6.8.1-4-amd64-k8\ [03:31] oficina: out with it.. what's the problem? [03:31] to verify that, you could change your video driver to vesa [03:31] BockBilbo: (marc) horowitz key protocol [03:31] How can I login to that computer with the username/password? [03:31] hams that's correct then..that's what the apt-get should have done [03:31] randabis: i tried switching drivers, no luck, same problem... login screen is fine, then it hangs after i hit enter. [03:31] BockBilbo: You can also visit most on web (via http://) and cut and paste [03:32] hmm [03:32] right where you'd see the ubuntu splash [03:32] ok... i'll take you're word for it. === farruinn uses warty - sorry froust =( [03:32] mm interesting [03:32] BockBilbo: he wrote the major server software [03:32] farruinn I was having a similar problem on my sister's machine (hoary as well)...it was because of her driver so that's why I suggested that [03:32] froust can you try failsafe mode? [03:33] how unstable is hoary [03:33] failsafe gnome didn't work [03:33] ok [03:33] bitfoo: it's quirky :P [03:33] BockBilbo: the "official" PGP documentation is very good [03:33] hmm :/ [03:33] i'll try the other one [03:33] bitfoo: daily [03:33] i should stick to stable warty then :D [03:33] ok, the nvidia install seems to detect the kernel source, but it doesn't like something, so i actually need to build the kernel? [03:33] bitfoo hoary is nice, but it picks who it is nice to [03:33] anyway to remove the 2 second gap inbetween songs in cdrecord?? [03:33] MrTrick: I need to fix a screwup. I have 2 partitions of 15GB in a disk of 20GB [03:33] quirky means more time messing around with ubuntu than studying for school :| [03:33] in my experience hoary has been excellent with very few problems === TonyK [~TonyK@adsl-69-151-246-104.dsl.hstntx.swbell.net] has joined #ubuntu [03:34] cool [03:34] :D [03:34] randabis-laptop: it goes past the login, tells me that it's failsafe, then it hangs [03:34] some things break occassionally, but they aren't major and are usually fixed within the next day [03:34] froust hmm I wish I knew something else for you to try...sorry..it's beyond my expertise [03:34] Is there an option to stop the file explorer from opening folders in a new window? [03:35] bugger. when i updated today, there were tons of things for gnome [03:35] i'm thinking it might've been one of those [03:35] MrTrick: yes [03:35] how do i build the kernel the same options, that the warty-release is installed with? [03:35] ok [03:35] so i guess.. that now that my pgp signature is on the servers [03:36] mcphail: Do you feel like telling me where I might find it? Or are you just going to sit there smugly? :-) [03:36] id just have to add it as an attachment in my mails [03:36] hams: get the config* from /boot and copy it to the root dir of the kernel source [03:36] right? [03:36] I didn't have any problems with today's updates [03:36] MrTrick: give me a mo... [03:36] BockBilbo: yes [03:36] this is really weird [03:36] farruinn: as .config correct? [03:36] and is it recommended to include also the ascii version as a signature?

[03:38] thankyou mcphail [03:38] ok [03:38] hams, yikes. [03:38] hams: http://www.ubuntuguide.org? :) === ions is now known as Butters [03:38] hams, i found ubuntu way easier than gentoo. [03:39] Ubuntu IS easier than Gentoo. [03:39] hams building kernels isn't a typical ubuntu task [03:39] You just need to know how to get along learning it properly. [03:39] :) [03:39] scoon: then i guess i need the child's version [03:39] BockBilbo: BTW, you know the difference between the key and the signature? [03:39] the default kernels are just fine for the most part [03:39] hams, what is the problem [03:39] so wanting to install the lastest nvidia driver is a non-standard practice? [03:40] yes considering that you can get it from the repositories [03:40] mm [03:40] you don't need linux source to build that driver btw === Madeye [~jad@213.186.182.111] has joined #Ubuntu [03:40] nope [03:40] hams ? [03:40] :$ [03:40] apt-get install nvidia-restriced-blah gave me 6111 [03:40] I'm a little suspicious of inserting any removable media into Ubuntu anymore [03:40] yes [03:40] :\ [03:40] that's because you are using warty [03:40] mcphail, which is the difference? === crazydudenate [~chatzilla@AC9E79BC.ipt.aol.com] has joined #ubuntu [03:41] if you want newer packages you need to upgrade, or search for a backport [03:41] I inserted a digital camera, was able to take the picture off of it, took it out, and it says there is no memory left when there are no pictures on it [03:41] scoon: i needed to install 6629 nvidia driver, but the install script wants the kernel source tree present so i can build some kind of interface or something [03:41] I inserted a USB key-chain 64MB stick [03:41] hams, why do you need the 6629 drivers ? [03:41] randabis: and there's another official release of ubuntu? [03:41] And it is no longer readable from [03:41] BockBilbo: First, everyone needs your public key to read your signature. You've taken care of this by uploading your public key to a server. [03:41] u just change all warty instances in sources.list to hoary to upgrade right? [03:41] :\ [03:41] hams, are you running a 6800 or some sort ? [03:41] scoon: only driver with support for pci-e video card [03:41] hams there's the development release, hoary [03:41] It's really looking bad for me [03:41] 6600 gt [03:42] hams [03:42] bitfoo: yes [03:42] ok i understand [03:42] I am having problems installing j2sdk... I am getting sun-j2sdk1.5debian: Depends: sun-j2sdk1.5 but it is not installable === Quest-Master is most likely in trouble with parents for tampering with $600 digital camera [03:42] randbis which wouldn't install on my machine [03:42] And I'm betting it was a bug in Ubuntu [03:42] :( === Quest-Master is very, very sad [03:42] you don't need linux source to install the nvidia driver from the site though [03:42] ;[ [03:42] BockBilbo: Your signature is just a hash of the file you create (like MD5 etc). You then encrypt this with your private key and send it as your signature [03:42] you only need kernel headers [03:42] or linux headers rather === Butters is now known as ProfessorChaos [03:42] hams, have you installed the kernel headers for your kernel ? [03:43] you just need to specific the path to the linux headers for the nvidia installer script [03:43] randabis, i just do what the installer says... i'm not smart enough to know better [03:43] BockBilbo: It can only be decrypted by your public key. Therefore, the email can only have come from you and noone else. [03:43] scoon: i believe so [03:43] hams, yes or no ? [03:43] he did [03:43] hams, it won't be much use to go on. [03:43] ok [03:43] wow... im confused.. [03:43] BockBilbo: You don't send your public key on each email. Only your signature [03:44] he just needs to specific the path of the headers to the nvidia installer [03:44] scoon: yea, i did the apt-get install linux-headers- [03:44] so [03:44] hams, by default the nvidia installer looks for the source in /usr/src/linux [03:44] which is my signature? [03:44] will someone please help me get Cedega installed, it keeps crashing in MAKE ???? [03:44] scoon: yes, i managed to create the softlink... [03:44] BockBilbo: Your signature is uniquely generated with each email [03:44] farruinn, if i go to hoary do i need to downgrade any backports? [03:44] hams, so then what happens next ? [03:45] ohh [03:45] so thats why i have to configure the email sender [03:45] right? [03:45] hams is your softlink to the linux headers or the kernel source? [03:45] BockBilbo: yes [03:45] it needs to be to the linux headers [03:45] scoon: it complained about no config file, so i copied the config file, no i'm building the kernel [03:45] randabis: to the source [03:45] that's where you went wrong [03:45] ohh [03:45] ok [03:45] bitfoo: erm, if it's a backport then it's from hoary [03:45] hold on [03:45] you don't need the kernel source package to install the drivers at all [03:46] bitfoo: however, it would have been built against warty libraries... [03:46] ok, so now i understand... the headers are only the headers... [03:46] BockBilbo: evolution makes it very easy. Don't know about T'bird [03:46] hams, there is also a flag you can pass the installer to bring up advanced mode. [03:46] hams, in that mode, you will be able to specify paths to your headers and/or source as well. [03:46] but i should be ok with the source as well correct? [03:47] hams your symbolic link should be /usr/src/linux --> /usr/src/linux-headers-xxx [03:47] bitfoo: so I'm not exactly sure [03:47] hams NO [03:47] it will not be okay [03:47] no? [03:47] doh... [03:47] mm [03:47] ok, after the kernel compile finishes, i'll switch the link and try the installer. [03:47] the linux source package is completely different from the currently running kernel [03:47] it has some security stuff [03:47] BockBilbo: http://texturizer.net/thunderbird/faq.html#q2.12 [03:47] hams cancel that kernel compile [03:47] CTRL-C [03:47] you don't need to do that [03:48] :) i'm aquainted with ctrl-c [03:48] cool [03:48] BockBilbo: looks like you nees an extension for t'bird === NetwrkMonkey [~Monkey@netwrkmonkey.user] has left #ubuntu ["Leaving"] === Gwildor_ is now known as Gwildor [03:49] mcphail, yes [03:49] :S [03:49] sucks [03:49] BockBilbo: the enigmail site looks quite encouraging...

[08:19] Orcrist, nope [08:19] weird [08:20] delete the partition [08:20] Still diagnosing...Partition Table Types are how the partition is read on the IDE channels. Why there is no linux option available. I don't know! [08:20] geneo91, It's all unformatted space. [08:20] bad burn? [08:20] dunno [08:20] randabis-laptop, this is out of the CD ;-) [08:20] why do you want expert if you dont know what your doing [08:21] :/ [08:21] geneo91, Oh I know plenty of what I'm doing..

[08:24] daryn grabbing things from a windows machine shouldn't be too hard, but if you want to share files with the windows machine it's going to take some editing of smb.conf [08:24] crap he left [08:24] oh well [08:24] even stranger flex is that it's an entire hard drive [08:24] the GUI network tool consistently bungs my settings, though.

You'll see where I am at. It's not giving me options to select Unpartitioned Space. [08:25] so randabis, do you know how to get things to happen automatically when I log on? [08:25] maybe its compressed or somesilly aix crap [08:25] I'm assuming my iwconfig things for the network will be persistent unless I fire up the gui tool... === grepster is now known as grepper [08:26] ... but I'm not sure what to think about this dhclient ath0 thing. [08:26] gamecat well, generally if the info is in the config file, it should be good at bootup [08:26] Okay. Which config file, and what form do I use to add it? [08:26] if it turns out you don't like madwifi, I believe ndiswrapper also works for that wifi card [08:26] hmm, that wasn't the world's best wording. [08:26] I think it's in /etc/network/interfaces [08:26] not sure [08:27] (oh man, ndiswrapper = nightmares. we'll stick w/ this, thanks.) [08:27] Orcrist, Thanks for the attempt, I'll call up Daniels the dev for Ubuntu tomorrow. Talk to you guys later. [08:27] Okay, I actually edited that a bit. what in particular should I chuck in to make it dhcp me automatically? [08:27] and is there anything that should be in there to make sure my current iwconfig sticks with? [08:27] good luck fleix [08:27] ifconfig [08:28] I really don't know [08:28] meh, the syntax is probably scattered over two or three man files. I'll find it later, I suppose. [08:28] AT ANY RATE.

I then booted off the Ubuntu livecd and did the following: dd if=/dev/hdb1 of=/boot.lnx bs=512 count=1 and copied the boot.lnx to my winxp parition and edit the boot.ini, thus creating a dual boot syst [03:32] em using the ntldr.

[07:30] sprwal, killall esd, close and reopen totem, and see if that makes a difference [07:31] let'sse [07:31] k [07:31] sprwal, it's probably because gnome 2.9 with hoary runs the enlightenment sound daemon by default and afaik totem won't output to esd.

[07:33] yeah. [07:33] mh nono [07:33] better work with esd [07:33] THere's an option in gnome's sounds configuration screen for 'sound daemon' - I can't remember the exact wording of it.
