| Tuxicity | julio, on a different PC, the installer booted without warning.. | 12:16 |

| defendguin | jdub, will jhbuild work for someone on FreeBSD? | 02:31 |

| gort_ | i saw that there are 2 config files for the X server XF86... and xorg.conf | 02:31 |
| gort_ | one is used for gdm loging andt he other for sessions? | 02:31 |
| mjt | xserver in hoary uses xorg.conf | 02:31 |
| lupus_ | lsusb in console shows your usb devices | 02:31 |
| joker__ | ah ok | 02:31 |
| mjt | the one in warty (it was xfree86) uses XF86config | 02:32 |

| bretzel | yes tried remove/install for all these: xserver-xorg, fontconfig; gdm... no luck | 03:12 |
| bitfoo | where is the boot log :O | 03:12 |
| randabis | bretzel only thing I can suggest is making a bug report at bugzilla.ubuntu.com | 03:12 |
| bitfoo | with all the [OK] | 03:12 |
| randabis | it would be good for them to know about your problems so they can be fixed | 03:13 |
| FAST | can someone recommend a way for me to configure the sound cards? i did a 'man esd' and it recommends 'esd-config', but it's not installed, and i haven't seen the package available | 03:13 |
| FAST | (btw, i have 2 sound cards on the computer. 1 hooked up to amp for mp3 playback) | 03:13 |
| bretzel | there is an error in the xserver-xorg post-install script: one of vars aren't getiing a value that causes the shell syntax error ( empty var ) | 03:14 |
| randabis | FAST try the esound-clients package | 03:14 |
| kent | is netmeeting on XP in the program menu? i dont have windows, and need a friend to start it. can some one help me on how to explain to my friend? | 03:15 |

| robertj | kent: I dont think it is | 03:15 |
| randabis | haven't used windows in a while | 03:15 |
| robertj | I think if you do help and search for netmeeting there is a run neetmeeting option | 03:15 |
| bretzel | randabis: bugreport at ubuntu ... it is all I can do... | 03:15 |
| bitfoo | wait why does hoary have better power support. the kernel? or something else | 03:16 |

| ChaosZ3RO | okay, hopefully last question for the night. How do I get mp3 support in xmms? | 05:08 |
| djmt | ALT: Try the i386 version. I had the same problem using the AMD64 version. Now installing with the i386 version. | 05:08 |
| maximaus | raff61, just compile mplayer from source if you don't have it installed and use the FC2 rpm binary for mplayer plugin, install with "alien"n | 05:08 |
| ALTF4osu | and type in something, it starts up, loads some stuff, but then pops up with the language selection screen and totally hangs | 05:08 |
| thully | CharosZ3RO - installing gstreamer0.8-mad (I think that's the package) from universe should do the trick | 05:09 |
| ALTF4osu | i was hoping to be able to make use of the 64 bit processor | 05:09 |

| raff61 | mmm... thats a nasty way of doing it..lol | 05:09 |

| ironwolf | thully: rhythmbox doesn't work with my ipod, gnupod-tools does. *read README carefully though* | 05:10 |
| ALTF4osu | i'm wondering if maybe it was a problem with the dl over bittorrent, or as it was dl'd over wireless | 05:10 |

| Dr_willis | ironwolf, no idea one way or another.. i just read an artical in a Linux mag about it :P | 05:14 |

| Lee__ | okay. I figured I'd just install the update-manager and the update-notifer and he'll be fine. | 06:01 |
| jdub | either unreadably small or it just looks silly | 06:01 |
| trey3 | cafuego: eh... its had its issues... usually fine though :) considering things like OpenOffice2.0, GNOME 2.9 etc are in... not bad at all :) | 06:01 |

| jdub | rellik: don't suggest 'sudo passwd root' | 06:06 |
| trey3 | gah... I actually had to go look... cuz I got it the wrong way around... jdub beat me though :( | 06:06 |
| jdub | giard: you can set it in your x configuration; for some reason X can't determine it from the monitor | 06:06 |
| occy | I'd love to have indubstrial where I could simply pick a color or two to change the colors of the theme instead of having to freakin' redo all the images. | 06:06 |
| jdub | occy: what kind of transparent? | 06:06 |
| jdub | oh | 06:06 |
| jdub | that's a different problem | 06:06 |
| occy | jdub: like you can simply click and pick one color when you change a background... (with a transparent theme) but... with metacity borders.. you have to change ALL the stupid images. | 06:07 |
| occy | yeah... grrr.... I like how KDE does it. | 06:07 |
| occy | it makes sense. | 06:07 |
| occy | well... | 06:07 |
| occy | let me restate that. | 06:07 |
| giard | jdub: so is it a configuration-specific problem? | 06:07 |
| Dr_willis | heh | 06:07 |
| occy | I like the end-result of what KDE does. | 06:07 |
| jdub | occy: that's not really anything to do with 'transparent' though | 06:07 |
| occy | the implementation... | 06:07 |
| occy | jdub: true... sorry, I mispoke. | 06:07 |
| occy | jdub: the need however is there. We shouldn't have to have 40 billion colors of themes laying around. | 06:08 |
| Lee__ | is there a Gnome utility to safely eject a PCMCIA card? Something like cardctl? | 06:08 |
| occy | of metacity themes that is. | 06:08 |
| rellik | jdub, that website you refered that guy to has some info but for non-nuubs that just need a fix the answer is simple: sudo passwd root | 06:09 |
| jdub | rellik: that's not the right answer | 06:09 |
| occy | jdub: this way, if you find a cool background you like, use the color picker to easily make everything work together. | 06:09 |
| jdub | rellik: there is a good reason why the root account is disabled | 06:09 |

| occy | jdub: I asked someone one time about it... the metacity guy... and he scoffed at me like I was from another planet. (he's even from my home town too heh) | 06:10 |
| jdub | occy: you probably said 'transparency' | 06:11 |
| occy | jdub: hahaha | 06:11 |
| occy | jdub: touche :P~ | 06:11 |
| jdub | occy: sane metacity themes already handle colour changes | 06:11 |
| occy | jdub: can indubstrial do it? | 06:11 |
| jdub | ie. there are no colour changes in the human metacity theme | 06:11 |
| jdub | though it's based on the industrial theme, which is usually blue | 06:11 |
| occy | I guess I'd just need to know what to change in the theme. | 06:11 |
| jdub | you change the gtk+ theme | 06:12 |
| occy | jdub: got a pair of hex numbers I can grep for? | 06:12 |

| MMXcr | cool!!! | 06:31 |
| Lee__ | MMXcr: Redhat is really Linux but Debian is more unix-ish in my experience. | 06:32 |
| Rattboi | Lee__, wtf does that mean? :P | 06:32 |
| nevyn_ | Lee__: I'd disagree with that. | 06:33 |
| bretzel | ROFL!!! | 06:33 |
| Lee__ | how so? | 06:33 |
| === trey3 seconds nevyn_'s motion | ||
| nevyn_ | gentoo is unixish | 06:33 |
| Lee__ | yeah. it is. | 06:33 |
| nevyn_ | debian is NOTHING like traditional unix. | 06:33 |
| Lee__ | as is OpenBSD | 06:33 |
| jdub | Lee__: a lot of solaris admins feel the same way :) | 06:33 |
| jdub | Lee__: hp-ux admins don't ;-) | 06:34 |
| rignes | I've never used traditional unix, but slackware's goal is to be the most unix like linux distribution as I understand it. | 06:34 |
| Rattboi | Ubuntu is like...? | 06:34 |
| nevyn_ | debian. | 06:34 |
| Lee__ | I guess it's the start with nothing and build the system up style | 06:34 |
| Rattboi | debian is like? | 06:34 |
| jdub | Lee__: to make hp-ux admins at home, we really have to work on the whole 'pigsty' thing ;) | 06:34 |
| nevyn_ | heh | 06:34 |
| Lee__ | I haven't been fortunate enough to use hp-ux ever | 06:35 |
| Rattboi | I put Ubuntu on an iBook, and it didn't feel foreign at all | 06:35 |
| Rattboi | so I think Ubuntu is kinda like OSX | 06:35 |
| nevyn_ | I used solaris briefly and hated it. | 06:35 |
| bretzel | One point that attracted me to Ubuntu since I 've discovered it is that for now it seems the opposite of Commecrcial Distribs such RedHat/MandrakeLinux and Novel's SuSE ... | 06:35 |

| bretzel | MMX: Oh yes! I recommand Ubuntu event to my brother whoknows nothing about Linux | 06:37 |

| rignes | MMXcr: Pick whatever distro you wish, but I'd recommend getting a good book to get you going. Like Running Linux from Oreilly Press. | 06:38 |
| MMXcr | Lee__, really man, how many time u are now whith linux??? | 06:39 |

| rignes | There is a local Linux User Group that meets near me. Everyone there agrees that Running Linux is the best book they read for a strong foundation. | 06:40 |
| nevyn_ | hrm. | 06:40 |
| Ewwmg | ~/.gdesklets <-- how can I browse through it..? I'm a total nub at the browsing syntax | 06:41 |
| Lee__ | rignes: is that the horse book? | 06:41 |
| nevyn_ | The unix programming environment by Kernighan and Pike is pretty good. | 06:41 |
| nevyn_ | Lee__: yeah | 06:41 |
| rignes | It's not distribution specific which is nice, so you won't get locked into a specific tool that only come with a particular distro. | 06:41 |

| rignes | I may not be understanding your quesiton totally since it's late and I'm tired but you could do cfdisk /dev/hdb to see what hdb is. | 06:46 |
| lsls | ok | 06:46 |
| lsls | so there is no fdisk like in dos or gdisk like in ghost? | 06:46 |
| rignes | then partition it, I don't know what other tools ubuntu comes with for partitioning. I'm primarilly a slackware guy just experimenting with ubuntu on a spare system. | 06:47 |

| pdaoust | LucidVisions... good question. ext2 is still the fastest, I'd imagine it's the case for SCSI as well as ATA | 08:03 |

| LucidVisions | I thought xfs would be the fastest,, | 08:04 |

| ALTF4osu | Stereotype: cool, thanks... as long as I can select the drive and it doesn't wipe out my windows connection | 08:37 |

| SyNtEx | k3vb0t: Who is telling you this? | 08:37 |
| jdub | k3vb0t: sure | 08:38 |
| souki | pdaoust: do you know someone who has it working ? | 08:38 |
| k3vb0t | Synaptic | 08:38 |

| pdaoust | souki: a few people on the forums have it working... nothing more helpful than that though | 08:38 |
| Stereotype | The drive you install Ubutu on will be wiped. | 08:38 |

| SyNtEx | k3vb0t: whic way? | 08:41 |
| SyNtEx | which | 08:41 |
| jdub | pdaoust: it's entirely virtual. i'm in sydney, we span every timezone except perth to lithuania | 08:41 |
| k3vb0t | Syntex: jsut trying to remove some folders, not sure where I need to go to take them out | 08:41 |
| pdaoust | jdub: wow | 08:41 |
| jdub | k3vb0t: there's no supported way to modify the applications menu | 08:41 |
| jdub | k3vb0t: if you're running warty, you can use applications://, but your changes won't be kept when you upgrade | 08:41 |
| Stereotype | jdub: There should be.:-) | 08:41 |
| SyNtEx | k3vb0t: the easy option is just remove the links from the Gnome menu | 08:42 |
| jdub | Stereotype: i encourage you to write a sane menu editor | 08:42 |
| k3vb0t | jdub: interesting.. I agree with Stereotype.. definitely should allow the user to change the menu... but I understand if it isn't possible (I'm a newb ;) | 08:43 |
| SyNtEx | jdub: that's interesting I did the same recently but was not aware they would come back | 08:43 |
| SyNtEx | jdub: removing apps.. :) | 08:43 |
| calc | it can be done | 08:44 |
| wm_eddie | mandrake has a pretty strange menu editor | 08:44 |
| nitrox | I am going to see if i can get this VNCSERVER on my own | 08:44 |
| calc | at least it can with kde ;) | 08:44 |
| jdub | calc: note "sane" :) | 08:44 |
| calc | so it should be able to be implemented in gnome as well | 08:44 |
| FAST | :\ | 08:44 |

| === aj [aj-irc@azure.humbug.org.au] has left #ubuntu [] | ||
| calc | jdub: well fdo menu spec etc shouldn't get in the way much i've seen the actual output of editted menu items, etc and it looks sane to me | 08:45 |
| pdaoust | wm_eddie: you shoudl try my computer; it'd give you more than what you desire in randomness ;) | 08:45 |
| jdub | calc: notice how you're not talking about user interaction? :) | 08:46 |
| FAST | anyone want to suggest how to configure sound cards? | 08:46 |
| k3vb0t | are usb headsets supported? | 08:46 |
| jdub | k3vb0t: if they're standard usb audio devices (most likely), then sure | 08:47 |
| calc | well making the menu directly editable via the menu itself is going to be hard but no one said that part would be easy ;) | 08:47 |
| k3vb0t | jdub: how do I 'activate' the headset over the soundcard? | 08:47 |
| jdub | k3vb0t: that's the hard bit atm | 08:47 |
| k3vb0t | jdub: that is to say, instead of using the soundcard | 08:47 |
| k3vb0t | ah ha | 08:47 |
| calc | making a standalone menu editor similar to kmenuedit but cleaner (haven't looked at it in the year) would be much easier | 08:48 |
| souki | FAST: do you have alsa working? | 08:48 |
| jdub | calc: see, direct manipulation is more attractive, but also more unwieldy with menus and submenus; the standalone editor route is completely abstract. | 08:48 |
| FAST | im not sure, how do i check? | 08:48 |
| souki | ls /proc/asound/ | 08:48 |
| k3vb0t | jdub: actually, discovering that I don't think my soundcard is working atm | 08:48 |
| jdub | calc: currently, i'm aiming to get rid of the applications menu idea entirely. | 08:49 |
| calc | to be replaced with what? | 08:49 |
| FAST | there is a list of items after ls /proc/asound/ | 08:49 |
| souki | FAST: if you have 2 soundcards, you should see card0 and card1 | 08:49 |
| jdub | calc: launchers | 08:49 |
| FAST | yes, i see card0 and card1 listed | 08:49 |
| calc | single icons on the topbar? | 08:49 |
| wm_eddie | jdub: a la XFCE4? | 08:49 |

| FAST | souki: codec97#0 id intel8x0 oss_mixer pcm0c pcm0p pcm1c | 08:51 |
| calc | jdub: not very familiar with those, sorry | 08:51 |
| wm_eddie | the OS X dock is nothing new. | 08:51 |
| jdub | wm_eddie: xfce still has the menu damage (and it's really icky) | 08:51 |
| jdub | calc: used windowmaker? | 08:52 |
| calc | jdub: yes | 08:52 |
| FAST | souki: ls /proc/asound/card1 --> codec97#0 id midi0 oss_mixer pcm0c pcm0p pcm3p | 08:52 |
| jdub | calc: so windowmaker conflates the idea of what's running and what's there to run | 08:52 |
| jdub | calc: this is quite similar to osx (osx and windowmaker being based on next, etc) | 08:52 |

| FAST | souki: there wasn't any problem selecting it for output. i stopped/hit play, but no sound is coming out | 09:49 |
| trey3 | eyequeue: actually... I think its Nautical... cuz several things weren't changed (Preferences etc) ... GNOME-fx says its a "very complete theme"... | 09:49 |

| trey3 | plus... apparently GNOME-fx only is compatible with Winblows... that makes a lot of sense :/ | 09:50 |
| trey3 | eyequeue: I like having a desktop where everything seems to fit... so yeah... | 09:51 |
| trey3 | Noia would stand out a lot of this desktop... | 09:51 |

| trey3 | FAST: sound is working elsewhere? | 09:53 |

| souki | FAST: maybe esd outputs to the 2nd card. is it plugged? | 09:57 |
| trey3 | mojo_: its cuz Flash for linux wants to use raw ALSA... but ESD is occupying your sound card :/ | 09:57 |

| jdub | it is not | 09:59 |
| souki | trey3: you can try dmix for the flash issue | 09:59 |
| mojo_ | trey3: Good to have an explanation. yeah, it is AC97 codec and does sound crappy compared to the Audigy2. | 09:59 |

| mojo_ | ? | 10:00 |
| souki | mojo_: it is sound mixing at alsa level | 10:00 |
| jdub | the stack has problems, which means the details end up being exposed to users | 10:00 |
| jdub | which makes people think sound daemons are bad | 10:00 |
| Scooter | LOL! omg that is cool, I was surfing in tty1 8D | 10:01 |
| syn-ack | jdub: esd used to be evil for using with video before alsa. | 10:01 |
| jdub | syn-ack: it is still suboptimal for synchronised or low latency audio requirements | 10:01 |
| syn-ack | the delay on it was horrid. | 10:01 |
| trey3 | jdub: I simply don't understand the need... thats my main issue with them... makes sense for GNOME upstream like I said... but for Ubuntu, not really? | 10:01 |
| jdub | alsa doesn't fix that | 10:01 |
| syn-ack | jdub: its a LOT better now though. | 10:01 |
| jdub | trey3: why would it make sense for gnome, but not ubuntu? | 10:02 |
| jdub | syn-ack: it's not | 10:02 |
| jdub | trey3: it makes even more sense on ubuntu because we can viciously enforce system policy | 10:02 |
| syn-ack | jdub: true. | 10:03 |
| trey3 | jdub: because GNOME supports *BSD and Solaris etc... easier to port Sound Daemon to other OS's only... | 10:03 |

| jdub | trey3: i don't know what you're talking about | 10:07 |
| syn-ack | Other than that, I like it a LOT. | 10:07 |
| jdub | mojo_: so you need to switch all your apps to use esd | 10:07 |

| mojo_ | For the IR port to start reading data, you have to send an initialization string to the midi out device. That is documented in the 'user notes' at the bottom of the page http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/doc-php/template.php?module=emu10k1 | 10:15 |
| mojo_ | The command you're looking for is echo -e '\360\000\040\041\141\000\000\000\177\000\367' > /dev/snd/midiC0D1 | 10:15 |
| === ^majik^ [~majik@68.119.96.36] has left #Ubuntu [] | ||
| mojo_ | but you change /dev/snc/midiC0D1 to C1D1 if it is the second sound card (like in my setup). | 10:16 |
| === ^majik^ [~majik@68.119.96.36] has joined #Ubuntu | ||
| mojo_ | You make a simple text file with the echo command in it and call the file "/etc/alsa/modprobe-post-install.d/snd-emu10k1". It will automatically get run on system boot. Just set the owner root:root and make it executable | 10:18 |

| popey | hmmm, after upgrading to hoary, is it normal that my Applications menu has a debian menu, and all the entries have folder icons? | 02:07 |
| popey | puzzledm, dont run so many daemons | 02:07 |
| puzzledm | what? | 02:08 |
| Peter | how could i revert back to warty? | 02:08 |
| popey | puzzledm, you could choose not to run some stuff at startup, called daemons, like the time updater thing.. | 02:08 |
| puzzledm | i just have a standard install | 02:08 |
| popey | Peter, I dont think you can | 02:08 |

| Peter | ok, | 02:08 |
| Peter | time to reinstall then. | 02:08 |
| Guardiann | popey yeash its a bit odd this upgrade doesnt,but on another upgrade i have the debian stuff as well | 02:08 |
| Peter | bbl | 02:09 |
| Guardiann | and both upgrades were done the same way | 02:09 |

| Boohbah | shadow^m: you want to run it in an emulator, like vmware? | 04:18 |
| Boohbah | ecio: so the hw detection is better than knoppix? | 04:18 |
| ecio | with vmware on windows, you dont need to mount the iso, just configure vmware in order to use it | 04:18 |

| Peter | !! | 04:23 |
| Dr_willis | this is an amd64 system also.. but i dident use the amd64 ubuntu. | 04:23 |
| ndazza | Peter, optical drives under linux are generally treated as scsi drives | 04:23 |
| Dr_willis | if there is one. :P | 04:23 |
| Peter | ndazza: ahhh. | 04:23 |
| ndazza | Peter, try adding a parameter to the boot time parameters, something like hdd=ide-scsi | 04:24 |
| Peter | so just swap ro to rw, and it should be right? | 04:24 |
| ndazza | i don't know how to do that with grub tho, i'm a lilo user... | 04:24 |
| ndazza | any grub experts know how to do that? | 04:24 |
| darksatanic | Peter: Actaully, that's not entirely true. The IDE/SCSI layer for optical drives is deprecated with 2.6 kernels. | 04:24 |

| darksatanic | ndazza: Yes. | 04:26 |

| darksatanic | cdrecord will complain about it being "unintentional", but it works perfectly (and is, indeed, the RIght Thing to do) | 04:27 |
| Peter | but natilus doesnt see the blank cds in the drive, and cdrecord doesnt recognize the drive :/ | 04:27 |
| darksatanic | Hmm. OK. That's a problem. :( | 04:27 |
| darksatanic | What does cdrecord say? | 04:27 |
| ndazza | Peter, are you sure hdd is the opdical drive? | 04:27 |
| ndazza | -d+t | 04:27 |
| darksatanic | Good question. :) | 04:27 |
| Peter | not entirely. | 04:27 |
| ndazza | use the device manager to find out! | 04:27 |
| Peter | yeah | 04:28 |
| Peter | block.device = /dev/hdd | 04:28 |
| darksatanic | Or "cat /proc/ide/hdd/media" at a command prompt. | 04:28 |

| Peter | scsidev: '1,5,0' | 04:32 |

| Peter | cdrecord: For possible transport specifiers try 'cdrecord dev=help'. | 04:32 |
| Peter | cdrecord: | 04:32 |
| Peter | cdrecord: For more information, install the cdrtools-doc | 04:32 |
| marcin_ant | hello - any gnome-terminal user here? | 04:32 |
| Peter | cdrecord: package and read /usr/share/doc/cdrecord/README.ATAPI.setup | 04:32 |
| darksatanic | Are you using dev=/dev/hdd as a parameter to cdrecord? | 04:32 |

| christian | but i think it says that i don't have permission to start another gui session. i guess its something with X | 04:50 |
| Dr_willis | ecio, hes right. i just fired up tightvnc - its not running any window manager/session | 04:50 |
| christian | i've read something about creating cookies but i'm not sure | 04:50 |
| ndazza | occy, no, that would overwrite the input file... and it still won't defeat css encryption | 04:51 |
| ecio | Dr_willis, oook :) | 04:51 |
| scaroo | hi ppl ! does any of you succeeded using your ipod within rhythmbox under hoary ?? | 04:51 |
| Dr_willis | looking at the vnc logs now | 04:51 |
| christian | you have to edit /etc/vnc.conf if you want it to run ~/.vnc/xstartup | 04:51 |
| christian | okay...i appreciate the help :) | 04:51 |
| occy | :/ | 04:51 |

| Dr_willis | on reading of the vncserver script (yes its just a fancy script) its looking in 2 places forits config files.. i'd say copy the /etc/vnc.conf to ~/.vncrc | 04:52 |
| Dr_willis | and then start twiddling :P | 04:53 |
| snarky | how do i get _just_ xorg from hoary? | 04:53 |
| ecio | is there a good "commander" clone for gnome? (i use total commander on windows) | 04:53 |
| Dr_willis | ecio, you mean a 2 pane file manager? :P thers 'mc' 'worker' and 'gentoo' | 04:53 |

| ecio | Xenguy, ok i tried xfce and something else, but i think that tryin to use (if available) apps that are studied for your desktop is better | 05:00 |
| ecio | i dont want to install qt and so on, just to use xyz filemanager, when i have a slightly equivalent gnome solution | 05:00 |
| Xenguy | ecio: there is no need to limit yourself in that way IMO. Run whatever app you want, regardless of your particular WM or DM | 05:01 |

| trey3 | ranweb: isn't that SPARC? not a supported Arch... | 06:32 |
| ranweb | yes sun ultra 5 sparc | 06:33 |
| trey3 | ranweb: maybe try Fedora? its quite nice also... | 06:33 |

| ranweb | debian supports sparc why not ubuntu | 06:33 |

| zhukov_ | scaroo, where can I get that cd? I cant find it in the ubuntu site... | 06:33 |
| Haukkari_ | ranweb: supposedly the ubuntu devs don't have suns | 06:34 |
| trey3 | ranweb: no idea... | 06:34 |
| tritium | bretzel, it's a kernel patch. Instead, they're working on usplash (userspace splash) | 06:34 |
| melazyboy2 | ranweb: because debian takes 2years to make a release because all offical deb software has to run on sparc | 06:34 |
| trey3 | melazyboy2: actually... most of Debian's issues seem to be due to Alpha or whatever... | 06:34 |
| trey3 | and MIPS | 06:34 |
| ranweb | really like the plug and play aspects of ubuntu | 06:34 |
| melazyboy2 | ranweb: and their kernel lacks optimizations and is cluttered with legacy options for archaic crap | 06:34 |

| LarstiQ | well, that's required for xbox demos to work | 09:16 |
| Usagi | ? | 09:17 |
| Usagi | then i think we have different meanings with the word demo | 09:17 |
| Usagi | demo is afaik demonstration or a sample | 09:17 |
| Usagi | unless you use demo to refer to illigal games etc | 09:18 |
| UZi` | I have just installed ubuntu on my computer, to install it I had to disable USB during installation. Now that it is installed, I cannot boot to it, it hangs on hotplug. | 09:18 |

| LarstiQ | Quest-Master: or what ephic said :) | 09:29 |
| Usagi | ubuntu only needs a few more things to make it perfect | 09:29 |
| Usagi | 1 location where all the uninstall symlinks are | 09:30 |
| Usagi | to easely uninstall stuff | 09:30 |
| ephic | ubuntu tears a hole in gentoo. | 09:30 |
| ephic | especially installation-wise | 09:30 |
| Usagi | even when u didnt use aptget | 09:30 |
| ephic | and synaptic beats portage. | 09:30 |
| ephic | being as you view all packages | 09:30 |
| Usagi | and soem sort of start button, so i can find links to everything i installed | 09:30 |
| ephic | and click and install | 09:31 |
| Quest-Master | LarstiQ: What should he do after install fgrlx? | 09:31 |
| ephic | usagi, ubuntu sets up everything you need | 09:31 |
| Usagi | im afraid i once will run out of space not knowing anymore what i installedm or how to get rid of it :* | 09:31 |
| Usagi | :( | 09:31 |
| ephic | ah i see. | 09:31 |
| ephic | just run nautilus | 09:31 |
| Usagi | but apt-get is always a version behind | 09:32 |
| ephic | to get rid of unwanted garbage | 09:32 |
| Usagi | well, you still have to know things | 09:32 |
| LarstiQ | Quest-Master: make sure that driver is used in your X config, and then it should just work | 09:32 |
| ephic | well i mean ya, you have to know where it is, just watch where you install | 09:32 |
| Usagi | one of the few things windows has over linux is some sort of software managment | 09:32 |
| Usagi | that configuration screen | 09:32 |
| Usagi | has a list of everything installed | 09:32 |
| Usagi | and you can remove it | 09:33 |

| ephic | zazeem: are you trying to update the nv drivers? | 09:38 |

| gepp1 | LarstiQ: The Ubuntu packages for it are largely broken. | 10:21 |
| gepp1 | gort: You'll need to add other sources to your /etc/apt/sources.list marillat is a good one. Try googling. | 10:21 |
| chippa | gort_, you need the marillat repo | 10:21 |
| chippa | "deb ftp://ftp.nerim.net/debian-marillat/ testing main" and for win32codecs. and install totem-xine from universe | 10:22 |
| gepp1 | LarstiQ: The other thing; even though it is good about latency, I'm getting lots of dropout, even with realtime enabled. | 10:22 |
| marcin_ant | chippa: well I installed this from experimental packages but it created big mess in my network settings and it currently doesn't support ppp connections | 10:22 |

| LarstiQ | Abysmal: what is your problem with Oldworld? | 10:36 |
| geppy | LarstiQ: Alright. I'd just been thinking that since the audio side of multimedia editing is quite important as well, then JACK might be a plus. Arguably, I might have to use bio2jack to port a couple of the better applications, but it wouldn't be all that difficult, I was thinking. | 10:36 |
| geppy | LarstiQ: But you're probably right. =) | 10:36 |

| spiffy | ahh well, not everyone is so fortunate. | 10:36 |
| LarstiQ | geppy: How much editing do you think would happen? | 10:36 |
| LarstiQ | geppy: Not just mixing and transcoding? | 10:36 |
| bzbb | spiffy, true, but, ISA? | 10:37 |
| Abysmal | LarstiQ -- i have a umax s900 and I have just gotten bootx on it and I have copies the boot kernel to the system folder but it just doesnt seem to work from there.. | 10:37 |
| bitfoo | tritium, once i've patched it how can i ensure that it will recompile and everything that works now will work as well :| | 10:37 |
| spiffy | its in the defualt kernel, so why not use it if you got it? | 10:37 |
| LarstiQ | kurtos: I don't think isa soundcards would pose a problem? | 10:37 |
| LarstiQ | Abysmal: is it properly blessed? | 10:37 |
| bzbb | if you can get it working | 10:37 |
| tritium | bitfoo, read the documentation that comes with kernel-package. Building a kernel the debian way is pretty easy. | 10:37 |
| Abysmal | <LarstiQ> ??? | 10:37 |
| bitfoo | man kernel-package? | 10:38 |
| === Simira [rpGirl@m146i.studby.ntnu.no] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| geppy | LarstiQ: A lot. It's a stop-motion animation community, so most of the time is spent editing, be it aligning the video/audio tracks (not possible with ESD or ARTS, they're too high-latency), and many of the people compose their own music, as well. | 10:38 |
| LarstiQ | Abysmal: 'blessing' is a procedure to make hfs find the correct System folder, or some such | 10:38 |
| spiffy | bzbb: ive gottenw weirder things than ISA working ;-) | 10:38 |
| tritium | bitfoo, also, see: http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/KernelHowto/ | 10:38 |
| LarstiQ | geppy: Ah, yes. | 10:38 |
| tritium | bitfoo, yes, man kernel-package, but also see docs in /usr/share/doc/kernel-package | 10:38 |
| bzbb | I do have a 286 running dos 3.3 with a working soundblaster 8 bit and an ethernet card in it | 10:38 |
| Abysmal | LarstiQ - I didn't see that in the bootx dox.. could ya point me in the right direction?? | 10:38 |
| bitfoo | ok | 10:38 |
| bzbb | that was a pain setting up | 10:38 |
| geppy | LarstiQ: That was meant to be a "be it aligning, or composing, or mixing/whatever." | 10:39 |
| LarstiQ | geppy: My only video/sound combo experience with regular software is in Blender tho :) | 10:39 |

| LarstiQ | geppy: Nafaik | 10:39 |
| geppy | LarstiQ: Alright. | 10:39 |
| LarstiQ | geppy: just downmixing multiple tracks | 10:39 |
| Abysmal | LarstiQ - goggle for "blessing"?? | 10:39 |
| LarstiQ | Abysmal: oldworld bless | 10:40 |
| bzbb | well, setting up an SB 8 bit on dos 3.3 is a bit different than using ubuntu, I should hope | 10:40 |
| geppy | LarstiQ: Ah, alright. As far as using bio2jack to port various programs, do you think that it would be a bad idea as far as stability/performance/etc are concerned? | 10:40 |
| tritium | bitfoo, also this: http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/KernelCompileHowto/ | 10:40 |
| spiffy | bzbb: thank god. Just wondering if its not some weird irq problem. | 10:40 |
| LarstiQ | geppy: I honestly don't know. | 10:40 |
| bitfoo | hmm | 10:40 |
| bzbb | it could be | 10:40 |
| geppy | LarstiQ: Ah, alright. Much thanks for your time. =D | 10:41 |
| bzbb | its been a lon time since i've dealt with ISA | 10:41 |
| LarstiQ | geppy: np | 10:41 |
| LarstiQ | geppy: if you have any ideas how jack in blender would make sense, prod me about it :) | 10:41 |
| bzbb | setting up the 286, I just swapped through cards till I found ones that worked | 10:41 |
| spiffy | yea thats essentially what we did. had the drivers load (snd-sb-common or something similiar). | 10:42 |
| geppy | LarstiQ: Alright, thanks! =D I'm going to go look into recompiling my kernel and build JACK from CVS. | 10:42 |

| HrdwrBoB | 2) you can't boot | 11:53 |
| HrdwrBoB | pick one :) | 11:53 |
| squeaky | lol | 11:53 |
| squeaky | i thought linux was supposed to be <i>better</i> than windows | 11:53 |
| paulsth | Can Ubuntu let me connect two wireless cards without a router? | 11:53 |
| === squeaky hates GRUB and LILO | ||
| LarstiQ | paulsth: yes, nothing ubuntu specific about that | 11:54 |

| LarstiQ | paulsth: you want iwconfig mode adhoc | 11:54 |
| HrdwrBoB | squeaky: it appears there's something wierd with your hardware :( | 11:54 |
| LarstiQ | squeaky: hmm? | 11:54 |
| === Agamotto bows | ||

| squeaky | except for mine... | 11:54 |
| geppy | rempresent: Yes. | 11:54 |
| LarstiQ | hello Agamotto | 11:55 |
| rempresent | great, thanks | 11:55 |
| paulsth | LarstiQ, so I'll set up my primary computer with iwconfig, then use the network tool on my laptop to connect to it? | 11:55 |

| ALTF4osu | question on grub for boot up | 11:55 |
| LarstiQ | rempresent: ie, escape the space | 11:55 |
| squeaky | ALTF4osu: error 21? | 11:55 |
| ALTF4osu | I want to change the order so that it defaults to windows if i don't do anything | 11:55 |
| LarstiQ | rempresent: or, use tab completion in a shell that is smart enough to escape spaces automatically | 11:55 |
| squeaky | oh, lol | 11:55 |
| squeaky | ALTF4osu: ur lucky, i can't get into grub ;) | 11:55 |
| LarstiQ | ALTF4osu: edit the grub menu.list default statement | 11:56 |
| ALTF4osu | but at least ubuntu is working... not the 64 bit, just x86 tho | 11:56 |
| ALTF4osu | LarstiQ: and change the order of the list... or..? | 11:56 |
| squeaky | HrdwrBoB: maybe we should try lilo, cause it seems to be better | 11:56 |
| squeaky | HrdwrBoB: but i get error 07 with that | 11:57 |

| HrdwrBoB | hm | 11:57 |
| HrdwrBoB | The BIOS failed to properly initialize the disk controller. You should control the BIOS setup parameters. A warm boot might help, too. | 11:57 |
| HrdwrBoB | try booting it | 11:57 |
| HrdwrBoB | then just hit c-a-d | 11:57 |
| LarstiQ | ALTF4osu: no, there is a 'default 0' statement, change the number after default to the number of your windows entry (counting from zero) | 11:57 |
| squeaky | c-a-d? | 11:57 |
| paulsth | LarstiQ, sorry for bothering you :) but i'm confused(never done a network before). how do I set the password and network name on the primary machine, is that with iwconfig, too? | 11:57 |
| geppy | ctrl-alt-del? | 11:58 |
| squeaky | oh | 11:58 |
| squeaky | that just reboots | 11:58 |
| geppy | squeaky: I wasn't sure, I was asking. | 11:58 |
| squeaky | oh, lol | 11:58 |
| geppy | haha =) | 11:58 |

| LarstiQ | paulsth: you mean wep password and essid? iwconfig eth1 essid mynetwork; iwconfig eth1 key 012345 | 11:58 |
| LarstiQ | paulsth: see man iwconfig for some documentation | 11:58 |
| squeaky | HrdwrBoB: you mean actually C, A, D, or CTRL, ALT, DEL? | 11:58 |
| paulsth | ok cool, thanks a lot | 11:58 |
| Agamotto | Wireless just seems to be a general pain in the ass where Linux is concerned | 11:58 |
| saif | would i fuck things up if i removed the gstreamer, totem and the video player?! because they don't wrk, i am using xine! | 11:58 |
| LarstiQ | paulsth: supposing you have iwconfig installed? | 11:58 |

| geppy | saif: No. | 11:59 |
| geppy | saif: I'd advise you to do it, they're obnoxious anyways. =) | 11:59 |
| HrdwrBoB | squeaky: crtl alt delete | 11:59 |
| xvers | hey...can anyone help me configure a vpn connection? | 11:59 |
| ALTF4osu | ALT-F4 is a really good windows command tho | 11:59 |
| squeaky | hrwrbob: that just reboots | 11:59 |
| ALTF4osu | it'll speed up your system | 11:59 |
| HrdwrBoB | squeaky: yes | 11:59 |
| paulsth | LarstiQ, yes I do. my wireless device is wlan0, so I assume I use that as the iwconfig argument? | 11:59 |
| HrdwrBoB | it soft boots | 11:59 |
| Nuak | hum, do you know how can i register in the rosetta project? | 11:59 |
| LarstiQ | Agamotto: it could be better, but after some failed attempts I now know which hardware is well supported, so now I'm good | 11:59 |
| LarstiQ | paulsth: yup :) | 12:00 |
| squeaky | HrdwrBoB: but then it simply gives the same error | 12:00 |
