| howrealisreal | i have to remake the kernel? | 12:00 |
| farruinn | maybe, what's the error you get on boot? | 12:00 |
| mjt | howrealisreal: since it's being loaded somewhere, it should be listed in some config file, and all config files are in /etc. So, fgrep -r floppy /etc will help... | 12:00 |

| mjt | howrealisreal: so my second quess was right when -- it's the hotplug startup scripts that handles all that stuff. In a hurry, you can list "floppy" (in a line by itself, w/o quotes) in /etc/hotplug/blacklist, or maybe better create a file with single line "floppy" in /etc/hotplug.d/ | 12:17 |
| howrealisreal | you suggest the second option? | 12:18 |
| mjt | howrealisreal: it may be interesting to find out why it is trying to load the module in the first place, but that's some more digging.. ;) | 12:18 |

| howrealisreal | okay. so i created /etc/hotplug.d/nofloppy that is just a single line that states "floppy" | 12:20 |
| howrealisreal | that's it? | 12:20 |
| mjt | drasko: it's better not to do that. Your ethernet card is always here, while usb device may be plugged or not. The interfaces gets next free number, so you will have eth0/eth1 depending whenever your usb device works or not | 12:20 |
| mjt | howrealisreal: yes -- w/o quotes ofcourse | 12:21 |
| howrealisreal | yeah without quotes | 12:21 |

| mjt | drasko: imagine you're booting without your usb modem plugged in (easy - pulled the cable, etc). Each interface picks up the next number available, so your former eth1 will become eth0 (as there's no eth0 corresponding to the modem) -- havoc will happen ;) | 12:33 |

| mjt | tritium: well, there are many other ways to rename interfaces too. But in this case i just don't see a reason for renaming (aka additional complications) -- just let ethercard be eth0 and usb modem be eth1, and be done with that ;) | 12:40 |
| === hybrid [~hybrid@dpc6744177080.direcpc.com] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| drasko | mjt, not shure I understand this... If a interface with static ip given change from eth1 to eth0 (as this place becames free) it leads to mess? Why...? Aren't those settings just brought to the eth0, and that the same for every device. | 12:41 |
| drasko | tritium, what is that suppose to be? | 12:41 |
| tritium | drasko, you can consistently name network interfaces easily | 12:41 |
| Riddell | hybrid: I've signed up for a free subscription but I don't know where to get the actual magazine, and I havn't got an e-mail | 12:42 |
| mjt | drasko: because your scripts will "think" eth0 is your "outside" interface (which is in fact your LAN), and vise versa - and eg will give static IP to your usb modem when you will plug it in, and will try to use dhcp client (eg) for your LAN interface -- so nothing will work. | 12:43 |
| tritium | drasko, in my case, my docking station NIC and wireless cards both get assigned to eth1, depending on what I'm using. ifrename eliminates that trouble | 12:43 |

EOF), but 4096/5 is not an integer :( | 01:48 |
| MacPlusG3 | skuld: wastes some disk space... but is better than nothing. | 01:48 |

| bascule | marcin_ant: it was to illustrate that a linux box will swap out over time regardless of RAM | 02:53 |
| marcin_ant | bascule: I see.... but I don't like this at all | 02:54 |
| Octane | I plan on installing Ubuntu on my main box instead of winxp. now, my current hdd is pretty much full... are there any workarounds to install ubuntu to a small partition and later on worry about all the ntfs shit? | 02:54 |
| HrdwrBoB | Octane: you really want a minimum of abotu 2gb | 02:55 |
| bascule | always | 02:55 |
| Pluk | Octane, what do you consider to be small? | 02:55 |
| marcin_ant | bascule: but when you got 4GB than you propably should create ramdisk as swap | 02:55 |
| Octane | Pluk: like 4 gigs | 02:55 |
| hybrid^away | Octane try damn small linux | 02:55 |
| Pluk | Octane, thats enough | 02:55 |
| bascule | marcin_ant: why does swap bother you? | 02:55 |
| Octane | hybrid^away: im not looking for an intermediary, just looking to install ubuntu and later on start reformatting my ntfs partitions | 02:55 |

| _hybrid | Octaane there is a live cd | 02:56 |
| marcin_ant | bascule: because I think that when you have enough ram (I still don't know how much) your system shouldn't swap at all | 02:56 |
| bascule | yes, there are lots of them, just a fave cause it picks up highlighting from a text editor and gives line numbers | 02:56 |
| Juice^ | I bought myself a domain name, could i use it with irssi as a vhost? or does it depend on my isp? | 02:56 |

| MrCranky | anybody know how to open a chm e-book in Ubuntu? | 02:57 |

| marioch | MrCranky, look for gnochm, I'm not sure if it's included in ubuntu | 02:58 |
| bascule | gangalino: and the URL for this paste is .... :) | 02:58 |
| marcin_ant | bascule: sure - but I don't want to turn off swap if my system _really_ needs it | 02:58 |
| MrCranky | marioch, thanks | 02:58 |
| HrdwrBoB | marcin_ant: you realise that is entirely redundant | 02:58 |
| Pluk | never done it Juice^ | 02:58 |
| Pluk | so dont know :) | 02:58 |
| jesuel | Juice^, for you to use a hostname for a vhost, you would first have to have a static ip, then you would ask your isp to assign the reverse dns to that static ip address | 02:58 |
| HrdwrBoB | marcin_ant: swap on a ramdisk is not of any use | 02:58 |
| === jba [~jba@210.185.67.18] has joined #ubuntu | ||

| bascule | marcin_ant: saying a system should only swap when the RAM is full/nearly full is something you would need to argue with Linus Torvalds an company | 03:01 |
| marcin_ant | bascule: hmm propably yes | 03:01 |
| Juice^ | jesuel: ok... thanks for the info | 03:01 |
| HrdwrBoB | marcin_ant: ram/swap operates that way because it's the most effecient | 03:02 |

| fsc | gnome and kde are resource hogs, even more so than xp | 03:05 |
| delltony | i thought dvdshrink did dvd9 to dvd5 | 03:05 |

| ShadeofGrey | hey linuxjones and everybody... does ubuntu support Nvidia cards? i mean things looked okay to meon the liveCD but i had a horrid time trying to get things going under fedora freebsd and gentoo | 03:06 |
| marcin_ant | HrdwrBoB: I don't get it | 03:06 |
| ShadeofGrey | thats why i dropped them all | 03:06 |
| fsc | ShadeofGrey, I think there's a .deb for nvidia drivers | 03:07 |
| HrdwrBoB | marcin_ant: basically, the kernel knows more about memory management than you do | 03:07 |
| ShadeofGrey | whats a .deb? | 03:07 |
| marcin_ant | HrdwrBoB: I can understand that when I have free ram than it is taken for cache | 03:07 |
| marcin_ant | HrdwrBoB: but I dont understant why system uses hdd when it still has free ram? | 03:07 |
| fsc | marcin_ant, why are you asking on #ubuntu? read some kernel books and goto #linux-kernel | 03:08 |
| HrdwrBoB | marcin_ant: because, as I said, caching files/etc is more useful than keeping unused memory swapped in | 03:08 |
| marcin_ant | fsc: because my first question was "how much ram I need to make my swap clean" | 03:09 |
| fsc | plus, as HrdwrBoB said, if you swap out least recently used processes then that can free up memory for other programs that are in use...but i'm no kernel expert | 03:09 |
| marcin_ant | fsc: and because I ask in "ubuntu desktop" context | 03:09 |
| bascule | marcin_ant: It also permits processes to have nonfragmented address spaces, regardless of how physical memory is organized or fragmented. | 03:09 |
| LinuxJones | ShadeofGrey, nvidia in Warty is broken as we speak :( | 03:09 |
| gangalino | bascule: it's like this- Dell Latitude CSx laptop with a broken USB port, so I put in a RATOC Cardbus USB adapter, that connects to the Microsolutions Backpack USB dvd+rw. The NEC part is probably the dvd's internal host controller | 03:10 |
| bascule | marcin_ant: if you know what a seg-fault is or how mwmory is paged that last line will make things clearer for you | 03:10 |
| gangalino | I know the card works because other USB devices work under it, like USB-storage | 03:10 |
| === housetier [~housetier@dsl-084-056-169-060.arcor-ip.net] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| fsc | if some in use program spikes up its memory usage, then it might be better to have some dormant processes in swap and have that free memory available for the in-use program | 03:10 |
| marcin_ant | bascule: ok thx | 03:10 |
| bascule | gangalino: yes, I have seen USB devices not recogninised by some hubs before, usually VIA | 03:11 |

| Mr_Smiley | you can read ntfs partitions fine, just not write | 07:05 |
| diego | mpq: no..windows comes with an ntfs->fat32 conversion utility i think | 07:06 |
| mpq | really? | 07:06 |
| delltony | it does? | 07:06 |
| mpq | I thought it was only the other way | 07:06 |
| === K-Rich [~krich@216-190-167-148.bras01.sho.az.frontiernet.net] has left #ubuntu [] | ||
| diego | hehe, i think it does both | 07:06 |
| delltony | i don't think it is i think its only one way honestly | 07:06 |
| diego | i'll boot and check if you'll see if .pdf attachments work for you...deal? | 07:06 |
| mpq | windows doesn't like fat | 07:06 |
| mpq | so I don't see why it would | 07:06 |
| heydude | hey- will the live CD - run the same as a normal install- i wanna see how fast the os works | 07:07 |
| mpq | it won't be as fast as the install | 07:07 |
| heydude | k | 07:07 |
| diego | heydude: negative, reading off a cd is much slower than reading off a hd | 07:07 |
| mpq | because it will be limited by cd read speed | 07:07 |
| heydude | ok | 07:07 |
| diego | mpq: deal? | 07:07 |
| mpq | huh? | 07:08 |
| diego | if you'll check if .pdf file uploads (such as in a html-based e-mail attachment), i will look for that ntfs->fat32 tool | 07:08 |
| zenrox | delltony, it does work bolth ways | 07:08 |
| mpq | if I convert NTFS to FAT32 will it destroy the data? | 07:09 |
| diego | preferable | 07:09 |
| diego | **cough** i mean no | 07:09 |
| mpq | if I had a choice I wouldn't have windows at all | 07:09 |
| mpq | but my sister is addicted to the sims 2 and my computer is the only one in the house that can handle it | 07:10 |
| heydude | can someone help me partition a drive | 07:10 |
| heydude | im trying to have a dual boot- windows/linux - i dunno what the hell im doing | 07:10 |

| delltony | http://www.ntcompatible.com/thread18987-1.html | 07:12 |
| heydude | i downloaded a zip file online with some things | 07:13 |
| heydude | is there another program i can use | 07:13 |
| heydude | an open source one? | 07:13 |
| mpq | partition magic is retail | 07:13 |

| mpq | what about fat? | 07:14 |
| sulkd | ? | 07:14 |
| delltony | that is true too what sulkd said | 07:14 |
| mpq | is there a cap on FAT? | 07:14 |
| tux_ | fat is very limited... | 07:14 |
| tux_ | that is why ms uses ntfs now | 07:14 |
| mpq | I can't use NTFS outside of windows | 07:15 |
| tux_ | right | 07:15 |
| delltony | if you have two boxes you can | 07:15 |
| mpq | I don't have two boxes | 07:15 |
| linux101 | ms should switch to rieserFS | 07:15 |
| delltony | you can samba into it | 07:15 |
| sulkd | mpq, yeah.. each file can only be 4 gigabyte... which doesnt suit me since I have some dvdr images | 07:15 |
| mpq | each file? | 07:15 |
| tux_ | and using ext3 in windows is not really working .. except for reading | 07:15 |
| mpq | I thought you meant the entire partition | 07:15 |
| sulkd | mpq, well you can read ntfs just fine.. | 07:16 |
| diego | tux_: ext3 in windows? how? | 07:16 |
| mpq | but I can't write to it | 07:16 |
| mpq | which doesn't help | 07:16 |
| sulkd | mpq, maybe what you need is a flash unit for carrying files between linux and windows | 07:16 |
| mpq | I have that | 07:16 |
| mpq | but that's not the point | 07:16 |
| sulkd | ok | 07:16 |
| tux_ | diego, there is an opensource app called explorerext2 or some such | 07:16 |
| sulkd | yeah | 07:16 |
| mpq | the problem is that the I only have windows to run the sims 2 | 07:16 |
| diego | tux_: cool, i'll have to check that out sometime | 07:16 |
| sulkd | the flash things suck anyway, I think they even are fat formatted | 07:16 |
| delltony | he is wanting to dual boot windows linux if i understand him right | 07:16 |
| mpq | if I could run it in linux I could uninstall windows | 07:16 |
| mpq | but I can't | 07:16 |
| tux_ | diego, handy tool | 07:16 |
| delltony | mpq then in that cause use that free vmware qeum i thnk it is | 07:17 |
| tux_ | mpq, why uninstall windows... | 07:17 |
| delltony | case even | 07:17 |
| mpq | I can't | 07:17 |
| tux_ | just delete the partition | 07:17 |
| tux_ | or rather format it | 07:17 |
| mpq | if I uninstall windows I can't run games | 07:17 |
| tux_ | lol | 07:17 |
| zenrox | mpq, i have many games installed | 07:17 |
| mpq | my sister is addicted to the sims 2 and my computer is the only one that can run it | 07:17 |
| linux101 | thats why i keep windows for the games | 07:17 |
| delltony | dude like i stated run that vmware program that is the free one i forget the name someone can help me with that | 07:18 |
| tux_ | mpq, that is why i have another system .. just for windows crap... got the system from the dumpster | 07:18 |
| sulkd | oh come on, we all know that if you want to run games it's best to just use windows and not even bother with cedega.. | 07:18 |
| delltony | but i use vmware personally to play games and what have you | 07:18 |
| mpq | I can't afford another box | 07:18 |
| tux_ | delltony, i think qemu will do that for you | 07:18 |
| mpq | if I could I sure wouldn't dual boot | 07:18 |
| delltony | yeah thats it | 07:18 |
| delltony | thanks for the name | 07:18 |
| sulkd | delltony, run games in a windows that is run over an emulator? | 07:18 |
| tux_ | mpq, nice to hear | 07:18 |
| delltony | yeah i run windows xp full install in vmware | 07:18 |

| diego | hi all. i know this SOUNDS stupid but it's what i'm experiencing and is 100% reproducible on my machine. any .pdf i upload becomes corrupt. checked this with attachments on gmail and hotmail. jpg attachment worked fine. i'm on hoary. would someone else be kind enough to see if it's just me? this is important to me as i got a 0 on an assignment i spent 5 hours doing yesterday because i couldn't print it. | 07:19 |

| GregoryD | if it's only a pdf and no other binary, then you shouldn't have a problem ;) | 07:23 |
| delltony | i thought i read somethign about corruption in open office on the forums | 07:23 |
| delltony | but i think it was doc files though | 07:23 |

| mpq | I know | 08:33 |
| crimsun_ | chado: it's not spam. It's an indicator that syslog is functioning normally but nothing was filtered into that log file. | 08:33 |
| mpq | I just said that it looks ugly compared to warty | 08:33 |

| hikaru79 | See you all in the mornin' =) | 08:33 |
| da_bon_bon | mpq: oh ugly.. | 08:34 |
| chado | crimsun_ my question is, how can i change that output | 08:34 |
| === Sav [~sav@83.209.31.69] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| chado | i have scripts to read messages, and i dont need to see that spam at the last lines | 08:35 |
| snowblink | chado: you could always script to ignore that line... | 08:36 |
| crimsun_ | chado: the smart method is as snowblink suggested. | 08:36 |
| da_bon_bon | how do i confirm whether udev is running on hoary ? | 08:36 |
| chado | why does that aritrary line have to be logged | 08:37 |
| chado | arbitrary rather | 08:37 |
| snowblink | chado: so you know it's running | 08:37 |
| crimsun_ | chado: but if you insist, read the syslog.conf (or syslog-ng.conf) man page for filtering options | 08:37 |

| chado | thanks | 08:37 |

| kakalto | I didn't realise how different sound is on windows, from linux | 08:37 |
| snowblink | kakalto: apt-get moo | 08:37 |
| chado | as a second question, does debian do that as well by default? | 08:37 |
| kakalto | it's so crap! | 08:37 |
| kakalto | snowblink :D | 08:37 |
| crimsun_ | chado: afair, yes. | 08:38 |

| larsrohdin | Pluk, key thanks! | 11:40 |
| Pluk | thay will get fixed > new version > and next upgrade they will be upgraded too | 11:40 |
| Pluk | prolly only takes a day | 11:41 |
| larsrohdin | ok, in hoary you mean? | 11:41 |
| Pluk | hoary could take a little longer i think | 11:41 |
| Pluk | _could_ | 11:41 |
| larsrohdin | no, i upgraded to hoary another day in about 40 mins... but it didn't work any good for me so im back in warty and waiting for the stable release | 11:42 |
| fsc | yeah, i noticed that xorg got held back in my upgrade to hoary...which is good from my perspective because i wasn't ready to take the plunge | 11:43 |
| larsrohdin | fsc, i want xorg bad! because im using ati-gfx card... cant get my tv-out woorking | 11:44 |
| fsc | i don't care about tv-out, but i have an ATI card too and i heard there were problems with ATI drivers | 11:44 |
| linuxboy | i thought a package held back during a upgrade is because theres a dependency that it needs. Thats why if you dist-upgrade it works | 11:44 |
| mjr | fsc, what ati card? | 11:44 |
| mjr | up to 9250 there are free drivers, less problems | 11:45 |
| fsc | mjr: 9600 mobile | 11:45 |

| larsrohdin | fsc, aawww... too bad | 11:46 |

| fabbione | Thom_Holwerda: ok thanks for the info | 12:52 |
| Thom_Holwerda | fabbione: however, i filed this bugreport ( https://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=6606 ) since there is a problem with the installer not recognizing netw. hardware, colin watson told me to file it | 12:53 |

| Coily | gotcha just making sure there werent any "we don't want you installing these packages for your own sake" stuff | 01:11 |
| viper12 | nods to colly. It really does make sense though. they want to get this distro to be as easy as xandros for the noob, but extensible as straight up deb as you progress. I really like that. | 01:12 |

| tga | Tommy: if you want a nice interface to it you can use qtparted from a livecd | 01:25 |
| tga | otherwise iirc the installer comes with the text version of it | 01:25 |
| CarlK | I pretty much want to run Firefox and XMMS, or some gui mp3 player - any recomendation for WM? | 01:25 |
| viper12 | it hosed the ext3? wow. mine rolled and even fixed a prob with the ntfs part. | 01:25 |

| Tirno | Hi, I had the possibly misguided idea to move to hoary and now my wireless doesn't want to talk to me | 01:48 |
| Nermal | well.. aptitude search asfrecorder returns nothing ? | 01:49 |
| Thom_Ubuntu | now whats wrogn with ctrl+alt+backspace :s | 01:49 |
| Nermal | Thom_Ubuntu, it kills X without quitting any apps properly | 01:49 |
| Tirno | using network setting gui, I try to activate the wireless card and it promptly de-activates it again | 01:49 |
| Nermal | just wrenches X out from underneath them | 01:49 |
| Thom_Ubuntu | oh | 01:49 |
| Thom_Ubuntu | well i dont really care i barely use my x86 anyway ;) | 01:49 |
| Nermal | plus it kills all the apps you are using etc | 01:49 |
| Thom_Ubuntu | Nermal, that i understood | 01:49 |
| Nermal | Tirno, what does things like /var/log/messages show ? | 01:50 |

| viper12 | hey tga. huh? | 02:01 |
| Nermal | muscibot, no documentation in the tarball ? | 02:01 |
| Coily | ya im running semi-stable right now... | 02:01 |
| tga | viper12, the card works just fine, it's dhclient that won't grab an address | 02:01 |
| muscibot | nope | 02:01 |
| Nermal | Tirno, what card is it | 02:01 |
| viper12 | ahh hmm. | 02:01 |
| Tirno | gah! where do I find the wireless chipset in the device manager gui | 02:01 |
| Nermal | Tirno, forget "device manager" crap | 02:01 |
| Nermal | thats windows talk | 02:02 |
| Tirno | ok | 02:02 |
| Nermal | lspci is a good tool | 02:02 |
| Nermal | will list all the pci devices | 02:02 |
| tga | eek, these fonts are fugly | 02:02 |
| viper12 | nermal..........that ain't cool. there IS a gui dev manager that lists the devices. If the user isn't as comfortable as SOME are on the command line, thats the FIRST place to look. | 02:02 |
| Nermal | viper12, device manager is very ambiguous | 02:03 |
| Nermal | it could mean different things on different DE / WM or different distros | 02:03 |
| Tirno | I'm comfortable with both | 02:03 |
| Nermal | command line is a lot easier over irc | 02:03 |

| Nermal | that would help lots :) | 02:04 |
| Tirno | because I'm not sure which thing it is that's supposed to identify the card | 02:05 |
| CarlK | so there isn't an apt-get switch to get the Recommended packages? | 02:05 |
| Nermal | Tirno, I meant you personally | 02:05 |
| Tirno | Since they've begun integrating wireless inside laptops, I've just been answering yes and saying activate and hoping for the best | 02:05 |
| Nermal | as in "I went and bought this card" | 02:05 |
| Nermal | ah... it's integrated .. centrino ? | 02:06 |
| Tirno | I went and bought this acer laptop | 02:06 |
| Tirno | yeah | 02:06 |
| Nermal | right.. | 02:06 |
| Nermal | so it will be using the ipw stuff | 02:06 |
| Tirno | I mentioned that earlier, sorry didn't realised you missed it | 02:06 |
| Nermal | np :) | 02:06 |
| Nermal | hmm. so it will be ipw2100 but more likely ipw2200 | 02:06 |
| viper12 | As far as it goes. If its a centrino based chipset (intel)........in the device manager GUI, its going to be listed most likely as: PRO/Wireless LAN xxxx mini PCI adapter. | 02:06 |
| Nermal | does lsmod give you any modules name ipw | 02:06 |
| viper12 | (looking at a centrino machine as we speak.) | 02:06 |
| tritium | CarlK, you can always use apt-cache show | 02:07 |
| === Nermal doesn't even know what the "device manager" is | ||
| Nermal | lspci and the kernel are my device managers | 02:07 |
| CarlK | tritium - how will that help? | 02:07 |
| Tirno | ipw2200 | 02:07 |
| Nermal | so the module is loaded.. .thats good | 02:07 |
| tritium | CarlK, It'll only show you the info you want to know. Then, you can install the recommend packages. | 02:07 |
| Nermal | its just not upping the wifi card :| | 02:07 |
| Nermal | which is odd.. it should appear somewhere in dmesg :| | 02:08 |
| Nermal | and iwconfig doesn't show any wireless cards ? | 02:08 |
| Tirno | ah | 02:08 |
| Tirno | sorry | 02:08 |
| Tirno | I did dmesg|grep eth1 | 02:08 |
| Tirno | grepping ipw2200 says load faled | 02:08 |
| Nermal | hmm.. maybe the firmware failed to load :| | 02:09 |
| Tirno | ipw2200: ipw2200_boot.fw load failed | 02:09 |
| Tirno | yep | 02:09 |
| Tirno | unable to load firmware: 0xFFFFFFFE | 02:09 |
| Nermal | ok.. so the firmware isn't loading onto your card.. so that could be a firmware version issue or it could be a pci issue | 02:09 |
| muscibot | AARG!!! | 02:09 |
| muscibot | this freeking thing | 02:09 |
| viper12 | ipw2200. you should check compatibility stuff. the ipw2100 (over here) is working with hoary array4. | 02:09 |
| Nermal | I would just try booting with pci=noacpi noapic and see what happens... as a quick check | 02:10 |
| viper12 | good call there nermal. | 02:10 |
| Nermal | that was a good fix when I worked for SUSE ;) | 02:10 |
| viper12 | what 'brand' laptop is it Tirno? | 02:10 |
| Tirno | acer travelmate 4000 | 02:10 |
| Nermal | as hoary has a newer kernel and it may not like the acpi implementation | 02:10 |
| viper12 | nods. definitely do the no acpi install. | 02:10 |
| Tirno | oh... | 02:11 |
| viper12 | you're ipw is a full rev higher than the compaq x1000 widescreen I'm looking at. (ipw2100). | 02:11 |
| Nermal | so hit space for the menu on boot, then hit "e" to edit the boot options and plonk pci=noacpi noapic on the end of the kernel line | 02:11 |
| Nermal | then hit "b" to boot it | 02:11 |
| Tirno | right | 02:11 |
| muscibot | i cant find asfrecorder as a tgz file only as a freeking zip file | 02:11 |
| Nermal | alternatively add those two to the end of the kernel line in /boot/grub/menu.lst :) | 02:11 |
| Nermal | note one is acpi and one is apic, they are two different things | 02:12 |
| Nermal | just to confuse you :) | 02:12 |
| viper12 | lmao | 02:12 |
| tritium | muscibot, what's the problem with that? | 02:12 |
| muscibot | well i dont know how to install it as an exe file | 02:12 |
| Nermal | its not an exe file | 02:12 |
| Nermal | it contains both | 02:12 |
| Nermal | you have to compile the linux version | 02:12 |
| Nermal | though I just do emerge asfrecorder *cough* ;) | 02:13 |
| muscibot | it contains a exe and makefile but i dont know how to makefile | 02:13 |
| Tirno | where do I put it in grub's menu.llst | 02:13 |
| Nermal | is there no INSTALL file ? | 02:13 |
| Nermal | to read ? | 02:13 |
| muscibot | nope | 02:13 |

| cblack | not off the top of my head. i just burned it via nautilus in gnome | 02:41 |
| krism | zeR : cdrecord -dev=/dev/... -tao filename.iso | 02:42 |
| krism | where -dev=/dev/.. is your devic ename, e.g. "/dev/hdc" | 02:42 |
| CarlK | isn't it just dev, not -dev? | 02:42 |
| zeR | is it bootable then? | 02:43 |
| krism | CarlK: ubuntu 'hack' i assume. it's usually 'dev 0,0,0' for scsi disk, but. | 02:43 |
| krism | zeR: yes, the ubuntu CD is bootable. | 02:43 |
| zeR | i mean, cdrecord makes it bootable automatically | 02:43 |
| zeR | ? | 02:43 |
| krism | CarlK: for dealing w/ IDE burners directly; cdrecord didnt (doesnt?) natively support ide | 02:43 |
| krism | zeR: yes. | 02:44 |
| krism | zeR: if the ISO is bootable, any program that burns the ISO makes.. a bootable disk. | 02:44 |
| mjr | krism, it does nowadays, at least the one that's actually distributed | 02:44 |

| fsc | Tirno, if that's what you're using | 02:49 |
| fsc | krism, k | 02:49 |

| Tirno | fsc?? | 02:50 |
| tritium | fsc, did you install gstreamer0.8-mad? | 02:50 |
| Tirno | what does that mean and how do I do it? | 02:50 |
| fsc | tritium, uhmm..no | 02:50 |

| fsc | tritium, thanks | 02:50 |

| tritium | XineL, grub-reboot with the proper argument | 04:34 |

| XineL | so grub-reboot "kernel" | 04:35 |
| XineL | ? | 04:35 |

| gazakii | is there an easy way to configure linux-source for module compiling? | 04:35 |

| Bandit | ;) I need to go out and shovel the 10cm of snow in my driveway >>> jut had to complain | 04:35 |
| tritium | XineL, anyway, if you choose the command-line approach, it's "sudo grub-reboot #", where # is the entry you want from /boot/grub/menu.lst | 04:36 |
| XineL | i don;t have a menu that pops up straight away that i know of, it just boots my current kernel | 04:36 |
| XineL | ah thanx tritium | 04:36 |

| CarlK | thanks | 04:58 |
| thoreauputic | Tsjoklat: nothing special - just playing with sound mainly - first time I got it working on this box | 04:58 |
| tritium | alsaconf is not in alsa-utils | 04:58 |
| Tsjoklat | thoreauputic, what are you running now? | 04:58 |
| jacquesmerde | linuxboy: synaptic -> help -> icon legend | 04:58 |
| Tsjoklat | tritium, it is | 04:58 |
| tritium | Tsjoklat, no | 04:58 |
| Tsjoklat | tritium, whatever | 04:58 |
| tritium | Tsjoklat, perhaps on Warty | 04:59 |
| thoreauputic | Tsjoklat: just a bog standard Warty with extras from universe and multiverse | 04:59 |
| Tsjoklat | CarlK, type: apt-cache search alsaconf and you will get this | 04:59 |
| Tsjoklat | alsa-utils - ALSA utilities | 04:59 |
| tritium | dpkg -L alsa-utils will reveal no alsaconf, however | 04:59 |
| Tsjoklat | thoreauputic, still not on hoary? I am liking it | 04:59 |
| thoreauputic | Tsjoklat: also had to compile a few things that weren't available, like the latest Fluxbox | 05:00 |
| Tsjoklat | thoreauputic, ah I want to give that a try someday | 05:00 |
| thoreauputic | Tsjoklat: I'm on dialup - I'll wait for the release ;) | 05:00 |

| Tsjoklat | kakorna, what do you mean? you get an error? | 05:01 |
| tritium | CarlK, if you install alsa-utils, you'll discover that alsaconf is not in the package | 05:01 |
| thoreauputic | Tsjoklat: If you had any idea how I struggled with Debian and Alsa trying to get this sound working - and Ubuntu just did it "out of the box" :) | 05:02 |

| tolstoy | Bandit, system tools? Yeah, I was hoping against common sense, too. | 06:20 |
| Echylo | thoreauputic, I think I would work if he would reinstall ubuntu at the same partition | 06:20 |

| Nire-work | well i asked yesterday about getting xorg and someone told me get horay | 07:37 |

| rapha | scotth, will that fix itself anytime soon through dist-upgrade? | 07:37 |

| fabbione | or aptitude from console | 07:38 |
| zenrox | ok | 07:38 |

| rapha | Ubuntu developers do you HEAR us? Can the community get a first-hand response? | 07:38 |
| Nire-work | or actually, now that i have horay installed, if it gets fixed, is there a way i can update the current install so i dont have to do a while fresh install? | 07:38 |

| thoreauputic | YankDownUnder: Ubuntu rocks - everything works out of the box here | 09:48 |
| Kenotic | tritium, Maybe it is just not me understanding how Debian and Ubuntu does things but why didnt installing the nvidia kernel give me the module? | 09:48 |

| ImagistTD | I'm trying to install linux on a Dell Inspiron 1100. Whenever I get to "Loading Components of the Ubuntu Installer" the program hangs when it reaches " Retrieving nic-extra-modules-2.6.8.1-3-386-di". I tried passing "pci=noacpi noapic" to the installer, but it didn't work. I tried a few other combinations similar to that, and they didn't work either. I also tried disabling the framebuffer as well, still no good. | 10:58 |

| pauldaoust | hey, folks, this is a completely un-Ubuntu-related question, but I figured it would be the quickest place to get an answer: is anyone here from the UK? | 11:47 |
| randabis | yea I've heard awesome things about ruby | 11:48 |

| randabis | they use metric iirc | 11:48 |
| pauldaoust | Ribs: it's only 10:00 | 11:48 |
| Ribs | and we use feet and inches to measure a persons height | 11:48 |
| pauldaoust | (over there) | 11:48 |
| randabis | ah | 11:48 |
| pauldaoust | Ribs: who's we? American? | 11:48 |

| Khan | Hello Everyone: A bit of a problem here. I got Ubuntu installed, no problem. BUT When I go to boot it up for the first time it stops the process at "Starting Hotplug Subsystem". I tried restarting a couple of times and it didnt work. Has anyone ever heard of this problem? | 11:52 |
| mattb_ | and works successfully in 2.4 with pcmcia | 11:52 |
| nisse2 | I need help here. Thin | 11:52 |
| mattb_ | any pointers on how to do this in warty with hotplug? | 11:52 |
| pauldaoust | INRSboy: don't forget to put sudo before the command; you need administrator privileges to run dpkg -i | 11:52 |
| sladen | neiras: you don't need to relocate to work for Canonical | 11:53 |
| pauldaoust | Ribs: har har har | 11:53 |
| INRSboy | ok thank's | 11:53 |
| CarlK | can someone tell me why aplay -l gives me 3 entries? http://paste.phpfi.com/51445 | 11:53 |

| pauldaoust | Khan: new enough anyway... hmmmm... you might check for kernel messages... if characters appear on your screen even after it hangs, you could try going Control-Alt-F1, Control-Alt-F2, etc; the kernel messages should be somewhere around Control-Alt-F10 or -F11 | 11:58 |
| pauldaoust | Khan: this might give you a hint as to what's wrong... of course, if you're new to Linux, the messages might be rather cryptic :-S | 11:59 |
