| bitfoo | can i assume if the livecd hoary works i can just upgrade to hoary :D | 02:15 |
| foznot | no,. i am not behind a router | 02:15 |
| socomm | oneslice: The Apache packge drops a script into /etc/init.d/ so you can control it via that script. | 02:15 |
| ^jaco | bitfoo from hoary land it seems to works very fine | 02:16 |
| farruinn | lavigj: you can use apt pinning, but that's complicated and can have bad results, or you can get backports | 02:16 |

| bitfoo | nice :D | 02:16 |
| crimsun | TimSNL: you don't need 'linux-headers-$(uname -r)' to use it. I suggested that as the fastest way for you to _check_ if it's supported. | 02:16 |

| ficusplanet | K-Rich, It depends on the specific modem, not on the usb connection. | 06:09 |
| K-Rich | Speedstream 5200 | 06:09 |
| ficusplanet | FLeiXiuS, I'm liking hoary a lot. I'm really encouraged by the improvements in oo.org2. And beagle - not officially packaged, but pretty easy to install - is just getting better and better. | 06:10 |
| K-Rich | ficusplanet: Speedstream 5200, one cool thing is it doubles as a router :) | 06:10 |
| FLeiXiuS | ficusplanet, there's a lot more deb packages available now, it's so much easier then compiling everythign as I did with warty. | 06:10 |
| ficusplanet | K-Rich, I haven't played with that modem (is it dsl), but broadband connections are generally pretty straightforward. | 06:11 |
| ficusplanet | FLeiXiuS, Definitely. I'm really looking forward to all the mono stuff being packaged and one-click-away. | 06:12 |

| ficusplanet | hou5ton, Hoary is the next version of ubuntu. You could upgrade to it right now, but it is a development version so it may not be as solid as what you have right now, which is referred to as "warty." | 06:18 |
| hou5ton | I'm still trying to read through the material, ... but | 06:18 |

| ficusplanet | Having universe and main ought to be enough to install gnucash, but you might not have the main web repository enabled. The first line in the repos box is your cdrom. You can uncheck that and check the two beneath it if they are off. | 06:56 |

| ficusplanet | memo_, Are you in GNOME? | 07:26 |
| K-Rich | none on mine... not sure on his.... though it did work last night which is odd... only thing different is i setup to share a folder | 07:26 |
| gamecat | So, mounted volumes. I've got 2 vfats and a ntfs that mount on setup and act almost exactly the way I want 'em to. | 07:26 |
| memo_ | Indeed. It's the default for Ubuntu, I think. | 07:26 |
| gamecat | EXCEPT that they put icons on the desktop. | 07:27 |
| gamecat | I'd rather those not be there. | 07:27 |
| === julio [~julio@ca-eglrck-cuda2-c10a-156.vnnyca.adelphia.net] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| K-Rich | let me see on his.... could be the router as well i assume | 07:27 |
| ficusplanet | OK, click computer>>preferences>>keyboard and change your layout in there. | 07:27 |
| gamecat | anyone know how to prevent those? | 07:27 |
| ron_frown | install on my macmini it went through entire install | 07:27 |
| ron_frown | rebooted, and got little blinking mac/questionmark | 07:27 |
| ron_frown | but I think I am fixing it | 07:27 |
| ficusplanet | gamecat, go into the configuration editor in the system tools menu. | 07:27 |
| cafuego | ron_frown: Insert Ubuntu CD, boot with finger on 'c' key. | 07:27 |
| gamecat | yeh? | 07:27 |
| ficusplanet | gamecat, navigate to apps>>nautilus>>desktop | 07:27 |
| linux-rulz | ah...dont have much experience with PPC/Linux | 07:28 |
| ficusplanet | gamecat, then disable volumes on desktop | 07:28 |
| memo_ | Thanks! | 07:28 |
| ficusplanet | memo_, np | 07:28 |
| memo_ | I hadn't noticed the 'Computer' part | 07:28 |
| memo_ | I thought that it was part of the applications menu | 07:28 |
| MacPlusG3 | ron_frown: actually... try holding down apple-option-shift-delete on bootup. this tells the mac to "search all other drives/partitions for something that's bootable". | 07:28 |
| gamecat | thanks, ficus. Will that keep CDs from showing up too? | 07:28 |
| ficusplanet | gamecat, I'm not sure. | 07:28 |
| memo_ | Another question, what package I'm supossed to download when selecting stuff for Ubuntu? | 07:29 |
| === pvh [~pvh@S010600121729b5b8.gv.shawcable.net] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| ron_frown | well i am installing osx on new partitions leaving about 10g for linux | 07:29 |
| gamecat | Hmm. Ideally, I'd like a plain ol' blacklist of volumes that can't show up. | 07:29 |
| ron_frown | so I will in a sec | 07:29 |
| gamecat | will investigate further. | 07:29 |
| ficusplanet | memo_, What do you mean? When you're trying to get extra software? | 07:29 |
| ron_frown | I tried that command option p + r | 07:29 |
| gamecat | at any rate, thanks! | 07:29 |
| memo_ | Yes. | 07:29 |
| pvh | Would someone please link me to a tutorial on CVS->DEB? | 07:29 |
| memo_ | There are packages for fedora, mandrake, redhat, etc | 07:29 |
| ron_frown | but what does zapping pram do, and I never heard the "three bongs" | 07:29 |
| pvh | Which is to say, I'd like to check out a package and build it into a deb file. | 07:29 |
| ficusplanet | memo_, Just go to computer>>system configuration>>synaptic | 07:29 |
| ficusplanet | memo_, You can install software from there. | 07:29 |
| memo_ | (In this case, i'm trying to update Gaim) | 07:30 |
| ficusplanet | pvh, Just use checkinstall. | 07:30 |
| pvh | ficusplanet: Thanks. I'll look into that. | 07:30 |
| gamecat | to a new version, memo? | 07:30 |
| gamecat | i.e. one that's not included in warty? | 07:30 |
| FLeiXiuS | I'm a huge fan of Apt, so I'd go with apt-get update && apt-get ugrade -y -f :-) | 07:30 |
| ficusplanet | memo_, The package format in debian based systems is .deb. However, you should just stick to the repositories in ubuntu, really. | 07:30 |
| gamecat | you might be interested in doing a search on the wiki for hoary backports. | 07:30 |
| memo_ | OK. Thanks :) | 07:31 |
| julio | go to www.ubuntuguide.org and follow the instructions to add new repositories. | 07:31 |
| === dead|shell [~deadsy@ool-44c44e58.dyn.optonline.net] has joined #ubuntu | ||

| ficusplanet | pvh, np | 07:31 |
| pvh | ficusplanet: That looks like just what I needed. Thanks! | 07:31 |
| ficusplanet | np | 07:31 |
| cafuego | ron_frown: Zapping the PRAM resets where it THINKS it should boot from. If you don't hear the chime twice, it didn't zap. | 07:31 |
| memo_ | Julio> OK. | 07:31 |
| === tierra [~tierra@c-67-166-119-150.client.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| ron_frown | MacPlusG3 - how does ubuntu run on macs? and can I slim down ubuntu distro? | 07:32 |
| ron_frown | eg, rip out kde and such? | 07:32 |
| julio | ubuntu doesn't come with KDE. | 07:32 |
| ron_frown | or is it more designed ot be a mass deployed desktop | 07:32 |
| julio | it only comes with GNOME. | 07:32 |
| MacPlusG3 | ron_frown: kde doesn't ship :) | 07:32 |
| daniels | ron_frown: it runs fine, and ubuntu never ships kde in the first place | 07:32 |
| ron_frown | thats not the point | 07:32 |
| === Tomcat_ [Tomcat@pD9E60E58.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| ron_frown | I was dealing with gentoo | 07:32 |
| ron_frown | where you install only what you need etc | 07:32 |
| ficusplanet | ron_frown, if you want to do a really slim install, run custom from the initial prompt | 07:32 |
| ron_frown | doesnt install shitloads of stuff you'll never use | 07:32 |
| MacPlusG3 | ron_frown: you can do a minimal install, and then add stuff. but default is good, saves you a lot of time. | 07:32 |
| MacPlusG3 | ron_frown: linux runs well on macs. | 07:33 |
| gamecat | i think I get you? if you install in expert mode, or... yeah, what they're saying. | 07:33 |
| FLeiXiuS | ron_frown, it's not quite the same, try loading ubuntu in the 'expert' install | 07:33 |
| kakalto | could someone help me, I have a s3 trio64, and x won't start | 07:33 |
| FLeiXiuS | ron_frown, gentoo is one if the most highly configurable distro's there are for installs, other then slackware | 07:33 |
| === alankelon [~alan@201.4.150.55] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| kakalto | hehe | 07:33 |
| kakalto | gentoo was kewl | 07:33 |
| ron_frown | it was a pain in the ass | 07:33 |
| ficusplanet | kakalto, I would just try running "sudo xf86config" and answering the questions to the best of your ability. | 07:34 |
| kakalto | installation was "interesting" | 07:34 |
| ron_frown | their documentation wasnt real clear for ppc install | 07:34 |
| pvh | ron_frown: Have you installed Ubuntu before? | 07:34 |
| MacPlusG3 | ron_frown: the debian-powerpc list is a good one to monitor as most devs hang out there and you get to hear about support/new features/problems/howtos etc | 07:34 |
| kakalto | ficusplanet, okay, thanks | 07:34 |
| ron_frown | pvh, quickly this morning, which didnt start | 07:34 |
| pvh | ron_frown: I found Ubuntu's default set of packages was really good, and didn't include the "shitloads of stuff" you mentioned earlier. | 07:34 |
| ron_frown | ok | 07:34 |
| FLeiXiuS | ron_frown, Ubuntu is one ISO, very limited, trust me! | 07:35 |
| ron_frown | ok | 07:35 |
| ron_frown | last question | 07:35 |
| ron_frown | packaging | 07:35 |
| jdub | yes we do | 07:35 |
| ron_frown | gentoo has emerge and portage | 07:35 |
| FLeiXiuS | Same as Debian ;-) | 07:35 |
| jdub | (haha!) | 07:35 |
| FLeiXiuS | ron_frown, Ubuntu uses Synaptics and Apt in favor. | 07:35 |
| pvh | ron_frown: apt-get/synaptic | 07:35 |
| pvh | ron_frown: cli/gui | 07:36 |
| ron_frown | apt-get? and do I just update a collection of "ports" then apt-get fetches source and builds? | 07:36 |
| FLeiXiuS | pvh, cli > all! | 07:36 |
| === K-Rich [~krich@67-139-239-128.bras01.sho.az.frontiernet.net] has joined #ubuntu | ||

| pvh | FLeiXiuS: I did make it the numerator. | 07:36 |
| ron_frown | all binaries? | 07:36 |
| MacPlusG3 | ron_frown: the cli way is 'apt-get update; apt-get upgrade' | 07:36 |
| K-Rich | ficusplanet: thanks... damned windows firewall lol | 07:36 |
| FLeiXiuS | pvh ;-) | 07:36 |
| jdub | ron_frown: but of course. | 07:36 |
| MacPlusG3 | ron_frown: yes, why on earth would you want to build everything from soure? | 07:36 |
| ron_frown | I wouldnt want to build EVERYTHING | 07:37 |
| jdub | ron_frown: no "some assembly required" here -> batteries included! | 07:37 |
| ron_frown | but some stuff | 07:37 |
| MacPlusG3 | ron_frown: no reason, see, exactly, you're not stupid :) | 07:37 |
| cafuego | ron_frown: why? | 07:37 |
| ron_frown | so its optimized for my hardware? | 07:37 |
| jdub | noflex: no need | 07:37 |
| FLeiXiuS | MacPlusG3, coming from a gentoo world thats how its done.. | 07:37 |
| jdub | ron_frown: building doesn't optimise for your hardware | 07:37 |
| cafuego | ron_frown: The speed gain you get from that is completely negated by the timr spent compiling it. Useless. | 07:37 |
| MacPlusG3 | FLeiXiuS, ron_frown: so you expose compiler bugs that make stuff break. | 07:37 |
| ron_frown | what do all the compiler flags used for, march etc | 07:37 |
| jdub | ron_frown: good software dynamically adjusts to the features of the hardware. | 07:37 |
| MacPlusG3 | cafuego: and the nice compiler bugs your come across | 07:37 |
| ron_frown | taking advantage of altivec etc | 07:37 |
| cafuego | ron_frown: They generally break stuff. | 07:38 |
| === arun-- [~arun@cm252.omega225.maxonline.com.sg] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| cafuego | MacPlusG3: yeah. | 07:38 |
| FLeiXiuS | MacPlusG3, I love to compile, simply for the extra advantage I get with customizations.. | 07:38 |
| pvh | ron_frown: If the packages are built for ppc, you should be okay for all that stuff anyway. | 07:38 |
| jdub | ron_frown: those define the instructions used and very corner case tuning things. they don't magically make software faster, or able to use hardware features (such as altivec). | 07:38 |
| cafuego | FLeiXiuS: See my previous note about wasting time compiling for a .03usec gain. | 07:38 |
| MacPlusG3 | FLeiXiuS: if you have to go and build something for some extra option then either the packaging or the package is broken and should be fixed | 07:38 |
| ron_frown | osx install takes ages | 07:39 |
| FLeiXiuS | MacPlusG3, I'm gentoo at heart. | 07:39 |
| jdub | FLeiXiuS: you'll get over it. | 07:39 |
| memo_ | OK. I know that the last version of GAIM is 1.1.2. However Synaptic says that there's no updates. :? | 07:39 |
| MacPlusG3 | FLeiXiuS: gentoo's big mistake is compiling everything from scratch | 07:39 |
| cafuego | FLeiXiuS: I would NOT admit that in public. | 07:39 |
| pvh | FLeiXiuS: That's cool. There's room for everyone in Linux. | 07:39 |
| pvh | cafuego: Why be down on him? | 07:39 |
| cafuego | pvh: Am I? | 07:39 |
| jdub | memo_: if you're running warty, that's correct. there is a particular version shipped and supported with the final release. | 07:39 |
| pvh | cafuego: Building software can be fun. | 07:39 |
| FLeiXiuS | cafuego, Well see, I love debians packaging more then the world, almost as simple as portage. | 07:39 |
| MacPlusG3 | FLeiXiuS: and big mistake with a lot of gentoo users is using every single possible compiler flag on every single package | 07:39 |
| memo_ | Oh. | 07:39 |
| cafuego | FLeiXiuS: it's simpler. | 07:39 |
| pvh | cafuego: Maybe I misinterpreted. | 07:40 |

| MacPlusG3 | there's a joke among a couple of dev communities i've been involved in: when a stange bug comes in, the first question is: "are you running gentoo?" | 07:40 |
| FLeiXiuS | MacPlusG3, I understand that, but it's something about configuration and understanding where our files are going to be placed that urges us to compile. | 07:40 |

| ron_frown | I like gentoo very much | 07:42 |
| DonL | cafuego, thanks. I will | 07:42 |
| cafuego | pvh: OSX has one major drawback, which is the lack of native OpenOffice. | 07:42 |
| MacPlusG3 | lifeless: it's a joke because it's true... kind of really black humor. esp when ppl do all this crap to their filesystem | 07:42 |
| pvh | cafuego: True that. | 07:42 |
| ron_frown | but I honestly think the install should install some base packages and hanle some of the tedious installer shit itself | 07:42 |
| ron_frown | instead of no installer | 07:42 |
| meskes | cafuego: That being true, I rather run something like Office anyway. sad to say. | 07:43 |
| MacPlusG3 | cafuego: and the fact that there's way too much binary only parts | 07:43 |
| cafuego | meskes: Office is a tad expensive. | 07:43 |

| |Kyle| | I guess that there's no way to import Thunderbird email from windows to linux? | 08:05 |
| kakalto | yeah there is | 08:05 |
| kakalto | but | 08:05 |
| cafuego | |Kyle|: Just copy the profile folder | 08:06 |
| |Kyle| | :o | 08:06 |
| kakalto | and if that doesn't work, go on irc.mozilla.org #thunderbird | 08:06 |
| |Kyle| | That's another thing I wanted to ask, how do I access my windows partitions? :? | 08:06 |
| kakalto | ntfs or vfat? | 08:06 |
| poningru | kyle it also depends on what you are using | 08:06 |
| calc | you can definitely do it, but how much work it is i don't know | 08:06 |
| kakalto | go onto www.ubuntuguide.org | 08:06 |
| poningru | imap or pop? | 08:06 |
| |Kyle| | pop | 08:07 |
| calc | i have used windows thunderbird to convert outlook email to mbox then on linux imported that into evolution | 08:07 |
| cafuego | ntfs/vfat are both readable, shouldn't be an issue. | 08:07 |
| calc | once its in mbox format you can import it into just about anything | 08:07 |
| poningru | yeah just transfer over your entire profile folder | 08:07 |
| |Kyle| | but where are they? | 08:07 |
| kakalto | but they do have different settings... | 08:07 |
| kakalto | Kyle, depends on your windows version | 08:07 |
| kakalto | on xp, it's under documents and settings | 08:07 |
| cafuego | |Kyle|: Documents & Settings/User/Application Data/ ... | 08:07 |

| kakalto | there's a section there on windows partitions | 08:09 |
| poningru | if you dont like command line | 08:09 |

| meskes | :D | 08:09 |
| MacPlusG3 | meskes: not true, my mother uses linux for everything and doesn't touch cli | 08:09 |
| kakalto | depends on the version | 08:10 |
| kakalto | if it's mandrake, fine | 08:10 |
| poningru | meskes: thats not true | 08:10 |
| kakalto | if it's slackware... | 08:10 |
| poningru | yeah even ubuntu | 08:10 |
| meskes | MacPlusG3: there is the execption to the rule. but Im sure she is not the admin of said box, MacPlusG3 | 08:10 |
| poningru | the cli is minimal | 08:10 |
| FLeiXiuS | It would mainly depend on how well the system is configured.. | 08:10 |
| poningru | lets not get into this argument | 08:10 |
| meskes | Im old school I guess, I prefer CLI | 08:11 |

| Martok | Ok! Thanks. | 11:45 |
| alterego | that will start it, but without the gui | 11:46 |
| alterego | when you are in gnome, if you need the gui start it as I said above | 11:46 |
| Martok | Will the dot be in the pannel? | 11:46 |
| alterego | not unless you start the gui, but once you have it, save your session when you log out | 11:47 |
| magicchees1 | question | 11:47 |
| cam | anyone know how i can display where apt has installed components? | 11:47 |
| magicchees1 | what does on shell mean | 11:47 |
| cam | for instance need to find one file that i just installed :/ | 11:47 |
| cam | lol | 11:47 |
| Martok | Ok, thanks. | 11:47 |
| alterego | Martok: actually saving your gnome session on logout is all you really need to do | 11:48 |
| magicchees1 | is that the black screen with the text | 11:48 |
| alterego | the init.d isn't necessary | 11:48 |
| Martok | Ok, yeah, I was about to suggest that. | 11:48 |
| mz2 | is there a gui of some kind for changing the refresh rate of the monitor? | 11:48 |

| magicchees1 | i was needing to use some instructions and was wondering what this meant | 11:50 |

| MrTrick | topyli: No, it's a linux executeable | 11:55 |
| Martok | Does anybody know what the firestarter process is? | 11:55 |
| MrTrick | Don't know why they stuck an extension on it.. | 11:55 |

| stvn | alterego: linux does have .exe, like certain mono apps ;) | 11:55 |
| MrTrick | mono? | 11:55 |
| Serengeti | like .net for linux | 11:56 |
| topyli | MrTrick: if it's a single executable, you can put it anywhere. ~/bin or /usr/local/bin maybe | 11:56 |
| stvn | Martok: firewall | 11:56 |
| topyli | stvn: oh yeah, tomboy.exe | 11:56 |

| Martok | It says its running but I don't see the process. | 11:56 |
| MrTrick | okay, it works now... | 11:57 |
| topyli | Martok: i don't think firestarter runs all the time, it just sets up iptables and that's all | 11:57 |
| MrTrick | how do I get it to run as a service? (ie in the background, rather than using a terminal) | 11:57 |

| alterego | it's /usr/bin/firestarter unless you compiled it :) | 11:58 |
| topyli | MrTrick: put a script in /etc/init.d | 11:58 |
| Martok | The only process that it found was grep firestarter lol. | 11:58 |
| MrTrick | topyli: that contains what? I've no idea about scripting... | 11:59 |

| mz2 | without meddling with modelines myself | 12:05 |
| alterego | helix player wouldn't work... so I gave in to the dark eula to be able to listen to BBC 3 :( | 12:05 |

| ubuntu | yeah just installed it tonight | 12:38 |
| alterego | ubuntu: typo? | 12:38 |
| cam | try it, its on hoary repos if ur using hoary | 12:38 |
| Martok | Wow, beep-media-player looks cool. | 12:39 |
| Ribs | it's only xmms in gtk2 | 12:39 |
| Martok | Really good looking. | 12:39 |
| alterego | cam: it's in warty too - maybe in universe | 12:39 |
| scoon | it works well also. | 12:40 |
| scoon | i used xmms for years | 12:40 |
| scoon | and then heard chatter about beep. | 12:40 |
| ubuntu | ok so i misspelled it then its 86 instead of 88 | 12:40 |
| alterego | apt-cache policy says it's in Universe | 12:40 |
| scoon | i have been using it for a few months now with no problems. | 12:40 |

| alterego | xserver-xfree86 is the argument (the package name) | 12:44 |

| ozan | hi, i want to choose alsa as default instead of oss. how can i do it? | 12:46 |
| jdub | ozan: ubuntu uses alsa almost forcefully by default. | 12:46 |
| alterego | ozan: it should *be* the default with ubuntu AFAIK | 12:46 |
| jdub | it just uses the oss emu layer to talk to it | 12:46 |
| === ubuntu [~warty@ip68-107-185-118.lu.dl.cox.net] has left #ubuntu [] | ||
| jdub | because using alsalibs directly is not great just yet | 12:47 |
| alterego | jdub: aha ! | 12:47 |
| alterego | I see | 12:47 |
| alterego | hence the appearance of oss in unexpected places... | 12:47 |
| ozan | i can't hear startup sounds but when i open xmms with alsa i can listen mp3s. there is a problem but where | 12:47 |
| alterego | marcin: mbr for dual boot | 12:49 |

| thoreauputic | marcin: try setting bios to defaults - that happened to me once | 12:51 |
| thoreauputic | marcin: the above fixed it | 12:51 |
| marcin | thoreauputic: hmmm fixed what? | 12:52 |
| thoreauputic | marcin: that's awindows message | 12:52 |
| marcin | thoreauputic: your ntloader or something? | 12:52 |
| thoreauputic | marcin: "operating system not found" | 12:52 |
| marcin | thoreauputic: in fact I'm trying to recover data from my partitions | 12:52 |

| marcin | thoreauputic: I had 4 partitions - hda1 for windows - ntfs, hda2 for linux, hda3 for swap and hda5 (on hda4) for data - fat32 | 12:54 |
| crispin | seb128: btw, I found my problem with the kernel from yesterday, it was due to my sid -> hoary upgrade, and the mkinitrd didn't pick up the sata_via module it needed, having manually added that to /etc/mkinitd/modules it all works now, and once I am in an ubuntu kernel, I can remove it from that file | 12:54 |
| seb128 | crispin: ok | 12:54 |
| marcin | thoreauputic: and after installing ubuntu I had "operating system not found" | 12:54 |
| seb128 | nice to know that's fixed :) | 12:54 |
| marcin | thoreauputic: so, I reinstalled XP on first partitoin | 12:55 |
| crispin | seb128: yeah, also nice to know that it's not ubuntu's fault, but me doing a totally unsupported operation :-) | 12:55 |
| marcin | thoreauputic: but windows said that my hda5 with data is not formatted | 12:55 |
| thoreauputic | marcin: after installing linux? | 12:55 |
| seb128 | crispin: yep :) | 12:55 |
| marcin | thoreauputic: so, now I'm trying to recover data with "get data back for fat" software | 12:55 |
| thoreauputic | marcin: if you reinstalled XP after linux, it probably stuffed your mbr at least | 12:56 |
| marcin | thoreauputic: and now I have working XP and free space on second partition | 12:56 |
| marcin | thoreauputic: so, now when I'll finish data recovery | 12:56 |
| marcin | thoreauputic: I'm going to install ubuntu again | 12:56 |
| thoreauputic | marcin: hmm.. I don't know much windows, sorry - totally linux now | 12:56 |
| marcin | thoreauputic: but I really don't want these fu*** problems again | 12:56 |
| marcin | thoreauputic: yeah... I don't use windows too - but I'm installing this system on my customer's notebook | 12:57 |
| marcin | thoreauputic: and now I almost destroyed his data... | 12:57 |
| thoreauputic | marcin: usual order 1) defrag windows 2) resize ntfs part 3) install linux on free space 4)put bootloader on mbr (I guess you know this...) | 12:58 |
| hikaru79 | I've finally succesfully set up a pure-ftpd server, and it works fine. I can log in and all; but how can I make it so that one system user has permissions EVERYWHERE (can upload to /var/www/, for example) without like, CHMODding +777 to everything? How can I give just ONE user permission to everything? | 12:58 |
| marcin | thoreauputic: yes I know... and have no idea why I had this "no operating system found" bug... | 12:58 |
| thoreauputic | I can only reiterate that the machine may have a"protected" bios or something similar | 12:59 |

| scizzo_ | hikaru79: if you change the group of the /var/www stuff....you can set the permissions on the group | 01:00 |

| mgedmin | I sometimes ^C an upgrade in progress, start screen, and immediatelly repeat the upgrade | 02:17 |
| sladen | Schaap: but doing it inside screen in the first place is a much better idea | 02:17 |

| G2k | nevyn: root is disabled?? wtf. so its like windows? one user manages everything. and what do u mean by gui being consistent? it uses gnome i presume | 02:34 |
| nevyn | root is disabled by default. it doesn't listen on any services. | 02:34 |
| nevyn | you can't login to the system as root you don't set a root password during install. | 02:35 |
| Schaap | Where is a good Shellscripting tutorial | 02:35 |
| nevyn | the user that you create during install has sudo access tho. | 02:35 |
| Schaap | just basics like writing test to a file | 02:35 |
| Schaap | text | 02:35 |
| G2k | nevyn: why did they take the root off? | 02:35 |
| nevyn | echo "sometext" > somefile | 02:35 |

| nevyn | G2k: why do you need it? | 02:35 |
| Schaap | aha, and replacing text? | 02:36 |
| G2k | nevyn: who manages system files, other users, kernel etc | 02:36 |
| nevyn | root still exists. | 02:37 |
| nevyn | it's just there's no need to use it in ubuntu the default user can do everything with sudo | 02:37 |

| Rotundo | ronny_fro: in a terminal you can "apt-cache search <Searchterm>" | 04:01 |
| tritium | ronny_fro, "apt-cache search" on the command line can be useful too | 04:01 |

| nevyn | a 100mhz p5 will be kinda slow for stuff like rendering webpages and compiling and stuff. | 04:31 |

| lavigj | godsmoke: this is not the built in gnome network config. this is a different application called network manager. | 04:41 |
| godsmoke | lavigj: you're confused -- the network config app is a GNOME application -- it's not a command-line application -- if you want to configure the network via command line, use ifconfig -- as far as "how to use it" -- that's a silly question, when it's there, you select the interface you want to configure, and say static, dhcp, or bootp, and then that's it | 04:42 |

| lavigj | godsmoke: go look at those links. I am not talking about the network-config which is a gnome app. | 04:43 |
| nevyn | TreadingSoftly: I don't think so. | 04:43 |
| tritium | lavigj, did you read http://people.ubuntu.com/~thom/network-manager/ ? | 04:43 |
| lavigj | godsmoke: because I am trying to get the ubuntu install to work with it | 04:43 |
| nevyn | TreadingSoftly: the paradigm focuses on the visual apearence of the document rather than the structure of the document | 04:43 |
| Gusto_ | why doesnt oidentd work in ubuntu | 04:43 |
| lavigj | tritium: yeah, I followed the installation directions there, but I am having trouble actually using it. I can't figure out where to launch it from or how to configure an applet to use it | 04:43 |
| tritium | lavigj, especially important is to read the section under "Note:" | 04:44 |
| godsmoke | lavigj: but this is a specific package -- and the package maintainer has a website about it | 04:44 |
| nevyn | for anything larger than ~20 pages this is wrong. I know it's possible to use styles to do almost semantic type layout in wordlike programs but it's not how people tend to actually use them | 04:44 |
| tritium | lavigj, did you add it to your session? did you manually restart dbus? | 04:44 |
| TreadingSoftly | nevyn: so by "the broken paradigm" you don't mean the combination of DTP and document preparation within a single program, but a half-hearted attempt to do both | 04:44 |
| nevyn | TreadingSoftly: right. | 04:44 |
| occy | I did: apt-get install liblame0 lame lame-extras and then ran soundjuicer, and it still says I don't have support for mp3 extraction. | 04:45 |
| lavigj | godsmoke: yeah... that's the link I quoted. it is about 20 lines long. which is why I was hoping to find another ubuntu user who was actually using it. | 04:45 |
| TreadingSoftly | nevyn: okay, but that's not really a broken paradigm: it's a failure to achieve a paradigm in the first place | 04:45 |
| occy | (added multiverse to my sources.list) | 04:45 |
| lavigj | tritium: I did restart dbus... I will try doing the session thing again. I thought I had gotten it but I will try that again | 04:45 |
| godsmoke | lavigj: you still -- in 20 minutes -- have not asked a specific question | 04:45 |
| nevyn | TreadingSoftly: the problem is people write a small document.. using direct formating and it grows everyone adding a bit... etc | 04:45 |
| lavigj | godsmoke: how much more specific would you like me to be? | 04:46 |
| tritium | pretty sad that I need help with "yelp" (the help system), but it doesn't load certain help documents (e.g. DiveIntoPython) | 04:46 |
| godsmoke | lavigj: what steps you took that didn't work | 04:46 |
| nevyn | TreadingSoftly: anything with multiple editors/writers and visual formating rather than semantic formating is painfull. | 04:46 |

| occy | mindphasr: heh, k. | 04:47 |
| TreadingSoftly | nevyn: agreed, although in the case of small documents, does it ever really matter? If you're talking about that subset of docs which start off small and grow larger ... well it seems strange to dismiss Word etc as a broken paradigm because of that subset. | 04:47 |
| mindphasr | occy: However, I suggest grip. Much more robust than soundjuicer | 04:47 |

| lavigj | tritium: I am going to try that, hopefully it work | 04:48 |

| nevyn | em is very semantic. | 04:51 |
| BockBilbo | what is the main gnome package? i think he has a problem with it | 04:51 |
| TTilus | nevyn: px is a necessary measurement unit, but using it with fonts is ... well you know. | 04:52 |
| nevyn | well it's layout but it's better than the alternative of fixed positions based on knowing the size of stuff in px. | 04:52 |
| TreadingSoftly | nevyn: well, <em> is really meaning _though_ layout (italics, bold, underline: usually italics) | 04:52 |

| TTilus | TreadingSoftly: emphasizing with italics is typographic _convention_ in traditional non-fiction text, not _standard_. | 05:01 |
| TreadingSoftly | nevyn: that has nothing to do with program functionality and everything do to with insufficiently open file formats | 05:01 |

| bitfoo | ladies and gentlenoobs :| | 05:01 |
| mindphasr | xhypno: There is a upgrade to hoary thread on ubuntuforums.org. that should be all you need to know | 05:01 |
| nevyn | TreadingSoftly: it has much to do with program bugs tho. | 05:01 |
| TreadingSoftly | TTilus: not limited to non-fiction. And most stuff in text is convention. So what? | 05:01 |
| TTilus | guillem: have you browsed distrowatch yet? | 05:01 |
| guillem | TTilus, no, what is distrowatch? | 05:02 |
| TTilus | TreadingSoftly: "so what" that it's not _standard_ of any kind and emphasizing depends on context | 05:02 |
| TreadingSoftly | nevyn: Yes... and if we didn't have the bugs introduced by poor integration within a program like Word, we'd have bugs from poor integration between programs. | 05:02 |
| TTilus | TreadingSoftly: the fact that context when using text varys only a little is clear but has nothing to do with _standards_. | 05:03 |
| tritium | I guess I'll file a bug against yelp since nobody will try to reproduce this for me | 05:03 |

| Martok | Hey, anybody have beep-media-player? | 05:05 |
| TreadingSoftly | TTilus: I'm not sure what you're getting at. I agree that the conventions about how emphasis is indicated in text are less firm than certain other textual conventions. Indeed, how emphasis is indicated in text is one of the areas where writing becomes not just verbal but visual (like those poems which are carefully arranged in a shape on the page). This is one of the complications about reducing all documents to a simplified semantic structure. (Wh | 05:06 |
| bitfoo | Dudes. Why would mp3s all of a sudden not play after upgrading to hoary. | 05:06 |
| Martok | Isn't hoary still unstable? | 05:06 |
| nevyn | TreadingSoftly: why must a semantic structure be simple? | 05:06 |
| tritium | bitfoo, did you dist-upgrade? If so, was anything removed in the process? | 05:07 |
| nevyn | TreadingSoftly: what's wrong with allowing people to define styles as required? | 05:07 |
| nevyn | and inherit from existing styles.. and oh wait.. that'd be TeX | 05:07 |
| TreadingSoftly | nevyn: so even those who struggle to type a letter in Word can understand it; more generally, it doesn't have to be. | 05:07 |
| bitfoo | i did dist-upgrade, and i think 30 packages or so were removed | 05:07 |
| TTilus | nevyn: nobody will use it if they have to admit the complexity of the real world? ;) | 05:07 |
| bitfoo | i dont remember | 05:07 |

People will buy programs that "just work" (i.e. that they can use in an intuitive way) over programs that are require them to learn new stuff.

| LesleyB | Monkey-Dude: multiporcessor version of the kernel : allows multithreading etc etc | 05:44 |
| peter_ | Oly: are u using iptables? | 05:44 |
| oly | there is no reason for it to be the router, because this puter is using the same router | 05:44 |

| Monkey-Dude | LesleyB, ok... where do i find that? | 05:44 |
| oly | i dont think so | 05:44 |
| peter_ | but you could have installed it anyway ;) | 05:44 |
| guillem | Monkey-Dude, SMP machines have several CPUs. When you install a linux distribution it realizes you have a SMP machine and installs an SMP version of the kernel. Perhaps the ubuntu installer does not realize you have a hyperthreading CPU, but an SMP kernel might | 05:44 |

| LesleyB | mrdibbler when using sudo you use the password of the user you are logged in as | 05:54 |

| Einzelganger | MrTrick, building it yourself if doing it right is safer, you can use all the warty-packages. Basically you have to do: 1) Add the above line (with deb-src) to sources.list 2) sudo apt-get update 3) apt-get source tuxracer 4) sudo apt-get build-dep tuxracer 5) cd tuxracer-version 6) dpkg-buildpackage 7) pray it works :) | 08:49 |

| HrdwrBoB | hm | 09:55 |
| HrdwrBoB | ahhhh | 09:55 |
| bitfoo | it plays ubuntu sounds | 09:55 |
| bitfoo | so i dunno :| | 09:55 |
| Martok | HrdwrBoB: Do you think Hoary will have better sound drivers? | 09:55 |
| nir | where can I get kernel-soruce-2.6.8.1? | 09:55 |
| nir | not available with apt-get | 09:55 |
| HrdwrBoB | Martok: it's possible, alsa is a few points higher in 2.6.10 | 09:56 |
| bitfoo | maybe it is this alsa thing :O | 09:56 |
| bitfoo | how do i see if i have it :| | 09:56 |
| LinuxJones | nir, look for linux-source | 09:56 |
| nir | available as binry though | 09:56 |
| HrdwrBoB | nir: if you're using warty it should be | 09:56 |
| nir | the name has changed? | 09:56 |
| Martok | Ok, thanks. | 09:56 |
| LinuxJones | nir, in Ubuntu yes | 09:56 |
| bitfoo | so any suggestions | 09:57 |
| bitfoo | is it the lack of alsa or any sound drivers somewhere or what | 09:57 |
| nir | hmm, it wold be good idea to update the install manual | 09:57 |
| HrdwrBoB | alsa is included | 09:57 |
| HrdwrBoB | if you have sound at all, it's through alsa | 09:57 |
| bitfoo | yeh i do | 09:57 |
| snowblink | HrdwrBoB: could not find date format option. Any hints? | 09:58 |
| LinuxJones | bitfoo, what is gstreamer-properties set to alsa or oss ? | 09:59 |
| HeMan | how long time does it take to get a user on bugzilla? | 09:59 |
| HrdwrBoB | snowblink: that's odd, I have a much older panel applet on this system and it's here, though I don't have a warty system handy to test | 09:59 |
| bitfoo | LinuxJones, how do i check | 09:59 |
| LinuxJones | bitfoo, ALT + F2 gstreamer=properties | 09:59 |
| HrdwrBoB | unfortunately if there's no properties option when you right click | 09:59 |
| snowblink | HrdwrBoB: I get preferences, but that's doesn't give you much play | 10:00 |
| bitfoo | default sink output esd, default sink pipeline esdsink, default source input oss, default source pipeline osssrc | 10:00 |
| HrdwrBoB | snowblink: that has four options on how to change the format | 10:00 |

| bitfoo | i use xmms r3v3rb | 10:27 |

| r3v3rb | root term -> alsamixer -> turn on then PCM and adjust the volume default is 0 !! | 10:27 |
| neighborlee | tritium, that is not the point dude | 10:27 |

| sjoerd | neighborlee: most desktop users don't ever need it and it's not like it's difficult to install afterwards | 10:30 |
| r3v3rb | change to oss | 10:30 |
| neighborlee | tritium, well..maybe they could offer a warning...cause I truly had no idea why I kept getting this error running this script ALTHOUGH the script maker could have issued a warning I guess if gcc was not found | 10:30 |
| bzbb | meh, if you are the type to install packages from source, you can figure out how to apt-get the devel environment | 10:30 |
| sjoerd | neighborlee: and most of the time you need extra devel libs too anyway, so | 10:30 |
| vladster | still cant find it and the google did not help either | 10:30 |
| r3v3rb | i think if i remember rightly | 10:30 |

| r3v3rb | gtg, catch u l8r, bitfoo good luck | 10:31 |
| bitfoo | thnx | 10:31 |
| tritium | neighborlee, even in debian, you have to select development stuff in tasksel when installing to get gcc | 10:31 |
| neighborlee | sjoerd, to me thats more important to most linux users...OR at least warn them out front that 'gcc' must be installed and why | 10:31 |
| bzbb | I odn't remember getting a tasksel type dialog when setting up ubuntu | 10:32 |
| kbrooks | neighborlee, a noob to linux would be truly confused anyway | 10:32 |
| sjoerd | neighborlee: if you know what gcc is you be able to figure out how to install the package fast enough :) | 10:33 |
| neighborlee | kbrooks, I dont mind gcc not being here in light of 'ease of use' and all..maybe I should be a bit angrier at the 'script' designer that he didn't 'check' for availability OF gcc.. | 10:33 |
| kbrooks | yeah. | 10:33 |
| kbrooks | not at ubuntu | 10:33 |

| neighborlee | I"m left wondering because I know other distros include them both | 11:03 |
| cafuego | neighborlee: There is no non-386 flash and no non-386 java plugin. So theyc an't be properly added, eh? | 11:03 |
| neighborlee | and yes I know..legalities legalaities | 11:03 |
| cafuego | neighborlee: There's "java-package" for easily converting Sun's .bin downloads, though. | 11:03 |
| neighborlee | cafuego, well then how on earth do other distors 'include them ' ? | 11:03 |
| neighborlee | not good enough | 11:03 |
| neighborlee | I want to see it work 'out of the box' | 11:03 |
| cafuego | neighborlee: They don't support non-i386 | 11:04 |

| neighborlee | the 386 crowd is NOT the norm though | 11:05 |
| neighborlee | if ubuntu 'stands ' for ease of use..why not made a default install 'easy to use' ? ;-)) | 11:05 |
| cafuego | neighborlee: In what way is the default install not easy to sue, then? Seemed fine to me. | 11:06 |
| neighborlee | do you find having to 'manually install 'java easy? | 11:06 |

| vladster | but for my customers, all I need is a small pack of mini-disks | 11:07 |
| neighborlee | cafuego, java is NOT going to be 'easy' for a newbie type coming from windows though...and that is at least 'part' of the crowd it seems that ubuntu is trying to attract isn't it ?? ( or so I" hope) | 11:07 |

| PWM | cafuego, just out of curiosity, what window manager do you use? :) | 11:14 |
| cafuego | PWM: I run the default Gnome at the moment. When I don't, I use /dev/console. | 11:15 |
| PWM | ok :) | 11:15 |
| paulproteus | jeremyh: The drivers themselves come with kernel images. | 11:15 |

| timo_ | How do i open a fileserver on apache2 | 11:16 |
| jeremyh | paulproteus, OK, so should I wait for a new kernel image to be released, then? What is in the alsa-driver package if not drivers? | 11:16 |
| cafuego | timo_: That question makes no sense. | 11:16 |
| timo_ | why not? | 11:16 |

| LinuxJones | timo_, you might have better luck asking in #apache | 11:44 |

| tritium | xxor, so when does Sarge release? Is there a Sarge LiveCD? how's X.org in Sarge? | 11:45 |
| xxor | neighborlee: its not 100% functional .. gnome 2.8 I mean , I remember alot of bugs when I ran it the first time | 11:45 |
| swim | no xorg in sarge is there? | 11:45 |
| vladster | still uses xfree86 | 11:46 |
| tritium | exactly | 11:46 |
| neighborlee | xxor, shrug i've encountered zero show stoppers | 11:46 |
| xxor | Tritium: so why do you prefer x.org over xfree86 ? | 11:46 |
| swim | xxor, no longer, im runing gnome 2.9 and its smooth | 11:46 |
| cafuego | xxor: It's not so much a debian wannabee, as a debian for desktop users. Most of the developers are the same. | 11:46 |
| sjoerd | dudes, don't feed the trollss | 11:46 |
| neighborlee | xxor, the typical issue with gnome panel being a little weird after first reboot...none beyond that | 11:46 |

| timo_ | hw do i set the index.html on apache2 | 11:47 |
| timo_ | ? | 11:47 |
| cafuego | xxor: I can't speak for tritium, but I prefer Xorg, coz it supports DRI on the Radeon U1 in my laptop | 11:47 |

| bitfoo | i thought it was an awesome game :| | 11:48 |
| cafuego | xxor: .. where xfree86 doesn't. | 11:48 |
| swim | heres a good difference between ubuntu and debian, the support... ive never ever been able to get courteous assistance from a debina irc channel... | 11:48 |
| tritium | xxor, I prefer ubuntu because it has better power management support for my laptop | 11:48 |
| cafuego | xxor: besides, as soona s Sarge reelases *you* will undoubtedly be running Xorg on Etch. | 11:48 |
| Quest-Master | I fully agree with swim | 11:48 |

| cafuego | Stray_: My normal rates are $165/hr. What do you need help with? | 11:49 |
| Stray_ | heh, | 11:49 |
| cafuego | tritium: don't use nvidia drivers!!! | 11:49 |
| Stray_ | cafuego should be working for m$ | 11:49 |
| tritium | :) | 11:49 |
| cafuego | Stray_: $165 isn't enough to deal with windows | 11:50 |
| stig_ | can anyone help with compiler prob's at all? | 11:50 |
| swim | honestly I think that the debian irc channel has allways been the only thing keeping me from using debian | 11:50 |
| shock | actually there are several good reasons for ubuntu over plain-debian. Support and community one of them. The guy sponsoring it and the fact that so many gnome-core-developers are working there something else | 11:50 |
| cafuego | stig_: Compiler probs or compile probs? | 11:50 |
| Stray_ | anyway yeh, to whoever refered me to the forums, i can assure you my problem isnt there. | 11:50 |
| shock | and the goals and focus ubuntu has is not as server-tainted as debian | 11:50 |
| Stray_ | fs, on windows the soloution would be so straight forward. | 11:51 |

| cafuego | Stray_: Same problem with both? | 11:53 |
| stig_ | cafuego: sorry, i'm new to this - as far as i know the makefile is there | 11:53 |
| Stray_ | am running both | 11:53 |
| cafuego | stig_: Does 'ls' list a 'makefile' or 'Makefile' ? | 11:53 |
| Agrajag | then do "ifconfig eth0 up" | 11:53 |
| Agrajag | see what happens there | 11:53 |
| cafuego | Stray_: No, one OR the other | 11:53 |
| stig_ | cafuego: there is a Makefile.am and a Makefile.in | 11:53 |
| cafuego | Stray_: It will ONLY be using the one that loaded first. | 11:53 |
| Agrajag | 8139too is most likely the one you want | 11:53 |
| Stray_ | ok | 11:53 |
| Stray_ | so how do i stop both loading up? | 11:54 |
| cafuego | stig_: You SURE you want to compile and install that sofware? | 11:54 |

| cafuego | stig_: Because you have a dev source tree, not a production one. | 11:54 |
| cafuego | stig_: What software is it, btw? | 11:55 |
| Stray_ | i cant see any refrence to nic drivers in modules | 11:55 |
| stig_ | cafuego: sorry??! its airsnort | 11:55 |
| cafuego | stig_: Why don't you just apt-get install airsnort ? | 11:55 |
| LinuxJones | neighborlee, it's ok to have more than 1 version of gcc installed | 11:55 |
| stig_ | cafuego: i've tried but it isn't on the reposiory | 11:55 |
