| |junit| | is there a way ubuntu can automatically recover grub? | 12:00 |
|---|---|---|
| thenuke | with simple commands you should able to install it again | 12:00 |
| randabis | best way would probably be to use a livecd and chroot | 12:00 |
| pauldaoust | Khan: well, maybe, if you feel like it, you could mark down any dangerous-sounding messages on a piece of paper... that is, if the keyboard isn't locked at that point too. | 12:00 |
| sladen | hello kandinski | 12:00 |
| thenuke | if you are able to get to run the grub that is | 12:00 |

| blah09 | yep | 12:31 |
| INRSboy | thank's to all bye | 12:31 |
| tritium | blah09, yes, but linux-image-686 doesn't depend on it yet because of what randabis is saying | 12:31 |
| randabis | the linux-image packages are still 2.6.10 | 12:31 |
| blah09 | oh | 12:31 |
| robtaylor | Octane: that should regenerate that file | 12:32 |
| blah09 | but linux-source is .11 | 12:32 |
| junit | hell ya, i got it working =D | 12:32 |
| tritium | sure, the source is available, if the image is | 12:32 |
| randabis | because linux-source is only meant to provide the source of the latest kernel | 12:32 |
| robtaylor | Octane: sorry i'm wrong.. hang on i'll just look a bit deeper | 12:32 |
| blah09 | ah | 12:32 |
| randabis | linux-headers are what you use to build modules, etc | 12:33 |
| junit | now i know how to fix an F'ed up MBR | 12:33 |
| junit | =D | 12:33 |
| Octane | robtaylor i tried doing it twice though | 12:33 |
| blah09 | i never understood the difference between source and headers | 12:34 |
| Octane | thank you | 12:34 |
| randabis | blah09, I just told you | 12:34 |
| blah09 | is that it? | 12:34 |
| randabis | headers are for building modules, source is for building new kernels | 12:34 |
| blah09 | headers for modules, source for whole kernel? | 12:34 |
| blah09 | ah | 12:34 |
| ShadeofGrey | okay wait let me make sure i do this right this time. the ubuntu install iso's are singular right? there are only single install discs correct? | 12:34 |

| randabis | maybe you should try the amd64 live cd first though and make sure that works okay | 12:35 |
| tritium | I agree | 12:35 |
| Octane | upadte then upgrade? | 12:35 |
| ShadeofGrey | also - i saw online that its supposed to ask you what kind of install you want and if you want to connect to the internet to download updates? mine didnt do any of that | 12:35 |
| khinester | hi do i display the size of the hard disk in Kb rather then blocks | 12:35 |
| khinester | i have done du -k, but this did not work | 12:35 |

| Octane | okay i changed from security.ubuntu to archive.ubuntu, robtaylor | 12:38 |
| ShadeofGrey | but at this point i feel like i have to because im a writer who just sold a 3 book deal and i want a system more secure from invasion so i dont lose my manuscripts to hackers and lose my lifes dream | 12:39 |

| randabis | that's one thing we have over windows, our documentation owns microsoft's | 12:39 |

| khinester | how do you setup WebDAV on ubuntu | 12:39 |

| robtaylor | Octane: is it working now? | 12:40 |
| randabis | ShadeofGrey, I mean ours is better by leaps and bounds | 12:40 |
| binks | i only want the latest fglrx driver | 12:40 |
| ShadeofGrey | robtaylor: well..,. i tried to start using fedora core 3 -- i cant believe how slow it boots | 12:40 |
| mjr | sontek, for winmodems, it depends; see http://linmodems.org/ for more info | 12:40 |
| robtaylor | ShadeofGrey: thats one place where ubuntu is a lot faster ;) | 12:40 |
| Octane | robtaylor: it was always working, it was just failing after it extracted the packages and was about to install | 12:40 |
| ShadeofGrey | randabis: ah.. the OTHER type of own | 12:41 |
| randabis | binks, you can't safely mix hoary and warty stuff..you have to do a complete upgrade | 12:41 |
| Octane | im trying again.. this time using archive.ubuntu.com, not security.ubuntu.com | 12:41 |
| robtaylor | Octane: so, after doing dpkg --clear-avail | 12:41 |
| sontek | mjr: I was looking there but they didn't have much info on what chipsets were in the kernel | 12:41 |
| robtaylor | does apt-get upgrade start working? | 12:41 |
| Octane | robtaylor i'll only know in 1.5 hours when it finishes upgrading | 12:41 |
| robtaylor | its not to do with your apt.sources | 12:41 |

| joda | Grey: not really, no | 12:55 |
| MobyTurbo | ShadeofGrey, ubuntu is sort of somewhere between Mac OS and Windows in interface, with a bit of Linuxy multiple desktops and the like thrown in. | 12:55 |
| MobyTurbo | ShadeofGrey, Ubuntu uses GNOME 2 | 12:55 |
| Pluk | http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php?content=13548 here is a macosx theme | 12:56 |
| ShadeofGrey | ive seen pictures on kde-look.org of linux desktops that have a dock that looks just like the mac on fedora, FreeBSD, and... I think debian as well | 12:56 |
| MobyTurbo | ShadeofGrey, both KDE and GNOME have Mac-like themes. | 12:56 |

| randabis | yes? | 12:57 |
| ebone | anybody got mono running with apache2 on Ubuntu ? | 12:57 |
| ShadeofGrey | okay | 12:57 |
| ebone | specifically, the apache mod_mono way ? | 12:58 |
| ShadeofGrey | so i have to install superkaramba and gdesklets to get my machine to look like that? | 12:58 |
| randabis | ShadeofGrey, either/or | 12:58 |
| randabis | you don't need both, but super karamba is for kde, gdesklets is for gnome | 12:58 |
| MobyTurbo | ShadeofGrey, under Ubuntu you probably want gdesklets | 12:58 |
| ShadeofGrey | okay | 12:59 |
| randabis | though technically you CAN use super karamba in gnome, and gdesklets in kde | 12:59 |
| randabis | I've done it for kicks before | 12:59 |
| bascule | supercpu-muncher | 12:59 |
| farruinn | the gdesklet thing really isn't much like OS X dock in terms of functionality though | 01:00 |
| randabis | ShadeofGrey, just keep in mind that using an AMD64 build limits you in software that you can use | 01:00 |
| nburns | does hoary still have a lot of bugs, or is it looking pretty stable now? | 01:00 |
| randabis | farruinn, agreed | 01:00 |

| tritium | ludi, just like I can dislike debian since it's default browser isn't NCSA Mosaic | 01:15 |
| robtaylor | right. its bedtime for me! | 01:15 |
| === Zotnix blinks. | ||
| ludi | but NCSA Mosaic isn't the gnome browser...epiphany is. | 01:15 |
| farruinn | ludi: ask canonical then, we don't make ubuntu, we just use it | 01:15 |
| sladen | ludi: there was a thread on ubuntu-devel called: "Epiphany vs. Firefox (Duck!)" about this. Just ask yourself which browser has mindshare | 01:15 |
| thundrcleeze | ludi, just because it's a gnome distro doesn't mean it has to follow gnome exactly. | 01:15 |
| tritium | ludi, it doesn't matter. I can dislike it for that reason. | 01:16 |
| Zotnix | ludi, it comes with many apps that aren't default in gnome. | 01:16 |
| HrdwrBoB | ludi: because epiphany is not up to the standard which ubuntu wanted and as such firefox was included | 01:16 |
| HrdwrBoB | abiword is the gnome word processor | 01:16 |
| === nburns [~dat@pcp06953876pcs.nrockv01.md.comcast.net] has left #ubuntu [] | ||
| ludi | HrdwrBoB: not up to the standard? How so? | 01:16 |
| HrdwrBoB | and gnumeric is the gnome spreadsheet | 01:16 |
| thundrcleeze | and abiword is available. | 01:16 |
| tritium | and gpdf is the PDF viewer | 01:16 |
| HrdwrBoB | however ubuntu comes with openoffice | 01:16 |
| HrdwrBoB | and 'comes' | 01:16 |
| HrdwrBoB | meaning it's in the standard install | 01:16 |
| thundrcleeze | and all of those are available if you want to use them. | 01:16 |
| HrdwrBoB | thundrcleeze: precisely | 01:16 |
| MobyTurbo | abiword and gnumeric aren't even in universe, they are in the regular repository. | 01:16 |
| farruinn | ludi: perhaps the thread on ubuntu-devel would answer your question more fully | 01:17 |
| HrdwrBoB | yes, they'r ein main | 01:17 |
| HrdwrBoB | they're | 01:17 |
| ludi | HrdwrBoB: epiphany not up to the standard? How so? | 01:17 |
| sladen | tritium: gpdf is unfortunately majorly buggy in its font-handling | 01:17 |
| HrdwrBoB | ludi: I an not 100% on the reasons | 01:17 |
| tritium | sladen, yes, for sure | 01:17 |
| ludi | well, that's what I'm asking about. | 01:17 |
| HrdwrBoB | I personally don't like epiphany so I'll not comment | 01:17 |
| farruinn | xpdf is fine though | 01:17 |
| HrdwrBoB | given my inherent bias | 01:18 |
| tritium | xpdf is pretty good | 01:18 |
| sladen | ludi: again, Openoffice has mindshare | 01:18 |
| mz2 | ludi, but you're not really making sense, why not just install epiphany? it's not like you can't get it from the ubuntu repository? i think it's a marvellous idea that ubuntu installs one app for rougly one purpose as a default, and firefox is really not a bad choice if a choice has to be made | 01:18 |
| ludi | mz2: why was firefox chosen over epiphany. what part of that question makes no sense? | 01:19 |
| randabis | ask the devs | 01:19 |
| === tierra|h [~tierra@c-24-10-173-249.client.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu | ||

| tritium | ludi, what a trivial issue... | 01:19 |
| === Zotnix agrees. | ||
| MobyTurbo | ludi, make your own distro then that defaults to epiphany and offers firefox as a download rather than the other way around. | 01:20 |

| smx | lol most dists have tools that make it a haor quicker | 03:30 |
| smx | a hair quicker a hair | 03:30 |
| thenuke | when I have used apt-get to install something, sometimes it have asked from me about some configs | 03:30 |
| thenuke | but very rarely | 03:30 |
| smx | me too' | 03:30 |
| smx | what is that program? | 03:31 |
| hawke | The level of questioning you get can be changed with 'dpkg-reconfigure debconf' | 03:31 |
| smx | it's an ncurses thing | 03:31 |
| thenuke | smx: what do you mean by that? doing that more quickly? how does slack for instance handle those then? | 03:31 |
| hawke | questioning -> prompting for config options | 03:31 |
| smx | slack's pkgtool has a simple ncurses interface | 03:31 |
| farruinn | smx: see hawke's answer | 03:31 |

| smx | but it's quick | 03:32 |
| farruinn | smx: the ubuntu default is to be really really quick by asking you hardly anything =) | 03:32 |
| smx | updates env | 03:32 |
| jesuel | smx, basically what youre looking for is a centralized configuration tool, that uses a text mode interface? | 03:32 |
| smx | yupper | 03:33 |
| smx | that's it jesuel | 03:33 |
| thenuke | smx: sounds ok | 03:33 |
| hawke | On the same lines, I'm curious to find out how to change the system default window manager.. | 03:33 |
| jesuel | as far as i know, one doesnt exist for ubuntu. Although you could always create one. | 03:33 |
| thenuke | smx: I have not yet tried slack | 03:33 |
| farruinn | hawke: for gnome? | 03:33 |
| smx | I used slack for years | 03:33 |
| minimec | smx: I used Slack and I loved it, but 'apt' is a smoking peace of software. | 03:33 |
| hawke | farruinn: Well, for gdm | 03:33 |
| smx | Yup -- apt is the best | 03:34 |
| smx | slapt-get suckes | 03:34 |
| hawke | farruinn: Desktop environment would be more appropriate, I guess | 03:34 |
| jesuel | slapt-get? lol | 03:34 |
| smx | for now ... I hear that they're working hard on it | 03:34 |
| smx | yea slapt-get is an apt-like program for slackware | 03:34 |
| farruinn | hawke: when you log into one that's different it asks you if you want to make that default | 03:35 |
| hawke | farruinn: I have Gnome, KDE, XFCE4 installed ... Don't understand why it defaults to XFCE4... | 03:35 |
| hawke | farruinn: System default, not user default... | 03:35 |
| minimec | smx: to configure your software, you have webmin or other programs, or you edit the config file, as usual- :-) | 03:35 |
| rel | what i cannot figure is why when I select evolution-exchange for removal, apt wants to remove ubuntu-desktop metapackage | 03:35 |
| hawke | rel: Because ubuntu-desktop depends on evolution-exchange | 03:36 |
| farruinn | rel: removing a metapackage doesn't remove what depends on it | 03:36 |
| farruinn | so it's safe to remove ubuntu-desktop | 03:36 |
| smx | where is the list of files for potential installation kept by apt? var? | 03:36 |
| farruinn | smx: you can use apt-cache search [package] | 03:37 |
| rel | hawke, applies to fetchmail and webcal too. So, it doesnt remove all the packages what ubuntu-desktop provides | 03:37 |
| hawke | smurfix: /var/lib/apt/lists | 03:37 |

| Ainvar | only reason I like kde over gnoe I guess is the way the file browseer is | 04:21 |

| GammaRay | Doc_Willis: yea but there is no way to do urpmq filename w/ apt, is there? | 06:11 |
| stuNNed | HrdwrBoB: so to run ubuntu in a virtual machine have to select 'vesa' video driver? | 06:11 |
| tritium | Dreamer3, there is a daily calendar view in evolution, however | 06:11 |
| Dreamer3 | tritium: the one that shows everything, messages, tasks, etc | 06:11 |
| HrdwrBoB | stuNNed: yes | 06:11 |

| HrdwrBoB | stuNNed: depends on the vm though | 06:11 |

| crimsun | GammaRay: or if the package is installed, use dpkg -S, or install and use dlocate | 06:14 |
| tritium | or dpkg -S file | 06:14 |
| Dr_Willis | But - i recall 'apt' for suse (apt4rpm) that had consolidated a lot of these commands. Is there 'apt' for other disrtos also? cant seem to fuind any mention of it. | 06:14 |

| stuNNed | crimsun: lol i did, why? :P | 06:15 |
| stuNNed | oh | 06:15 |
| Dr_Willis | crimsun, yea. so apt-rpm can work under ubuntu? i think theres geting to be tooo many things useing the word 'apt' in the name :P hard to g et them straight. | 06:15 |
| stuNNed | ok | 06:15 |
| crimsun | GammaRay: sudo aptitude install apt-file | 06:15 |

| reed_ | what, specifically, should I update? | 06:15 |
| bascule | Dr_Willis: didn't you find that with emerge, surely the most overloaded command in history | 06:16 |

| Dr_Willis | bascule, rarely used any other features of it. | 06:16 |
| bascule | yeah, it allows that doesn't it | 06:16 |
| crimsun | stuNNed: "safer?" for me, it's preference. | 06:16 |
| tritium | crimsun, upgrading doesn't resolve the polypaudio problems | 06:16 |
| bascule | I only ran it a month a found something I liked better, and still do :) | 06:16 |
| GammaRay | crimsun: I know how to do it w/ dpkg.. I was just bemoanging all the different commands :-D | 06:16 |
| crimsun | tritium: then refer to the url I posted last night if you were around... | 06:16 |

| tritium | crimsun, let me see what package needs to be installed for that. All I did was allow the esound->polypaudio transition. I didn't install extra packages | 06:24 |

| jacquesmerde | tritium, so change hoary-updates back to the archive.ubuntu.com server? or just comment those two lines back out? | 06:28 |
| tritium | interesting, though. esound functions with esound-clients | 06:28 |
| crimsun | esound should also function with polypaudio-clients | 06:28 |
| tritium | jacquesmerde, no, just comment them out until after Hoary is released | 06:28 |

| jacquesmerde | tritium, actually out of curiousity, how come aptitude had no problem when i ran update, but synaptic complained? | 06:29 |
| fsc | so xcompmgr with ati drivers are slooooowww, but is it the shadows that are slow or the transparency or both. i don't really care about shadows, but transparency would be nice | 06:29 |

| jacquesmerde | tritium, yeah, am using standard ubuntu gnome with standard ubuntu gnome terminal.. i didnt realise gnome terminal had transperancy? anyway that seems the OPPOSITE of a background. that means it can go always on top, rather than always behind | 07:01 |

| tritium | I do believe I'm switching back to esound. It's not worth any more effort. | 07:34 |
| pablo928 | crimsun: then whay doesn't it detect my ethernet adapter? I've tried two. | 07:34 |
| lil_anthony | ok the reconfigure worked | 07:35 |
| lil_anthony | thanks mate | 07:35 |
| crimsun | pablo928: isa devices are more finnicky. Under Warty, you'll probably have to configure them manually. | 07:35 |
| pablo928 | I'm very new to Warty. How do I do that? | 07:36 |
| crimsun | pablo928: what nics? | 07:36 |
| bascule | get rid of the exit-idle-time = -1 stops the rhythmbox drop | 07:36 |
| tritium | crimsun, thanks for all your help | 07:36 |

| crimsun | bascule: yes. | 07:40 |
| da_bon_bon | damn! polyp doesnt mix sounds. | 07:40 |
| jacquesmerde | tritium..everything soundwise was working fine on warty, even after a dist-upgrade, but now i've installed array4, i can play multimedia but no sound comes out.....is this a common problem? i've searched ubuntu's troubleshooting and docs | 07:40 |

| pablo928 | Just means I have to spend money! | 07:43 |
| crimsun | pablo928: to search the web? :) | 07:43 |
| tritium | jacquesmerde, it depends... | 07:44 |

| GammaRay | after gnome has been on for days, telling it to shutdown through the logout prompt freezes everything except the mouse. | 07:45 |
| tritium | jacquesmerde, I'm about to head to bed. | 07:45 |
| jacquesmerde | tritium: what if one were to correct BOTH the aforementioned solutions, and still find oneself saddled with the problem? the fact that this wasnt a problem after a dist-upgrade intrigues me | 07:45 |
| reed_ | how do I get sound juicer to rip to mp3? | 07:45 |
| jacquesmerde | tritium...if this is a common problem there should be a url out there i'm just too dumbe to find, yeah? | 07:46 |
| reed_ | i followed this advice: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=957&highlight=sound+juicer+mp3 | 07:46 |
| da_bon_bon | tritium, crimsun: set alsa up to mix sounds - and thus polyp too works great. actually, in multimedia system selector i changed both to alsa, does it affect polyp ? | 07:46 |

| tritium | da_bon_bon, you would want to select ESD | 07:48 |
| da_bon_bon | bascule: so did i. | 07:48 |
| |QuaD| | like linux products | 07:48 |
| bascule | ahcool | 07:48 |
| da_bon_bon | tritium: but i have no esd. | 07:48 |
| tritium | which, of course, doesn't work for me | 07:48 |
| tritium | da_bon_bon, polypaudio is supposed to function in place of ESD | 07:48 |
| crimsun | pablo928: you have to do this: sudo modprobe ne io=0xfoo | 07:48 |
| tritium | da_bon_bon, hence, you leave it at ESD | 07:48 |
| jacquesmerde | tritium, i tried the wiki..i'll give the forums a punt. any recommendations for search terms? | 07:48 |
| crimsun | pablo928: where "foo" is the i/o address of the d-link | 07:48 |
| tritium | jacquesmerde, obvious ones, like sound and Hoary and upgrade | 07:49 |
| da_bon_bon | tritium: selectin esd doesnt work. | 07:49 |
| tritium | da_bon_bon, it doesn't work for me either. Welcome to the club | 07:49 |
| pablo928 | crimsun: I'll give it a try. Thanks. | 07:50 |

| Dreamer3 | zenrox: yeah, those are the ones i setup already :) | 08:15 |
| tritium | true | 08:15 |
| jacquesmerde | tritum, i dont suppose you want to tell me what polypaudio -k does? i like to know what i'm doing to my system.... | 08:15 |

| tritium | crimsun, I don't plan on doing it beyond this one time | 08:17 |

| tritium | da_bon_bon, I was abbreviating environment | 08:25 |
| da_bon_bon | tritium: thanks, plz | 08:25 |
| tritium | da_bon_bon, it's also a command to show your enviroment variables | 08:25 |
| tritium | environment | 08:26 |
| tritium | jacquesmerde, the first step killed the running polypaudio process | 08:27 |
| tritium | the second just removed some files in the /tmp directory, just in case | 08:27 |

| jacquesmerde | tritium, done that. btw, did that rm do a permanent thing? will it be rm'ed after my next reboot? | 08:29 |
| tritium | crimsun, thanks. | 08:30 |
| tritium | jacquesmerde, yes, it was permanent, but those were temporary files | 08:30 |
| bascule | will rhtymbox and so start ppaudio if it isn't running, like xmms will start esd | 08:30 |
| jacquesmerde | if they're temporary files wouldnt they just be recreated as needed? | 08:30 |
| tritium | jacquesmerde, they will next time polypaudio is started | 08:31 |
| crimsun | bascule: gnome-session (which is invoked automatically when you log in) handles starting polypaudio. | 08:31 |
| bascule | of course, thanks | 08:31 |

| ells | tritium: my keyboard for my laptop is intermittently doing crazy stuff. Is there a way i can reset the keboard | 08:31 |
| jacquesmerde | tritium, is this a bug in polypaudio itself? wont ubuntu have to upgrade the package pretty quick with a patch since its a supported package? | 08:32 |
| tritium | ells, you could try "reset" | 08:32 |
| crimsun | jacquesmerde: no, this is not a bug in polypaudio | 08:32 |
| ells | type reset | 08:33 |
| tritium | yes | 08:33 |
| ells | cool | 08:33 |
| jacquesmerde | crimsum, then what is the source of the problem? has this affected everyone with array4? | 08:33 |
| crimsun | jacquesmerde: perhaps one in gnome-session, but that may be something of a stretch. | 08:33 |
| ells | what exactly does it reset | 08:33 |
| crimsun | jacquesmerde: the source is a stale session state file | 08:33 |

| pussfeller | jacquesmerde, mldonkey is prob what you want for emule | 09:00 |
| da_bon_bon | tritium: use email. irc dcc send doesnt work in xchat | 09:00 |
| jacquesmerde | i dont understand how the final step works. how does just enabling startup after you've logged in change anything? | 09:00 |

| jacquesmerde | when logging out with saving changes, should you have to click ok/close on a warning about what you've done? | 09:01 |
| jacquesmerde | pussfeller: thanks! why do you prefer mldonkey over amule? | 09:01 |
| da_bon_bon | tritium: not hte defualt sink. the default source is esd too ? | 09:01 |

| pussfeller | ie, you can run it on one box without X and control it from any computer in the world | 09:03 |
| jacquesmerde | pussfeller, so do i run it under mldonkey-gui? you too? | 09:03 |

| tritium | jacquesmerde, the only thing that I did differently from crimsun was to actually reboot, rather than log out and back in | 09:06 |

| Panzerboy | is it possible to install ubuntu without gnome? | 09:12 |
| Panzerboy | or xorg? | 09:12 |
| bob2 | yes | 09:12 |
| Nemesis__ | then boots me out to an openfirmware prompt | 09:12 |
| bob2 | xorg is only in hoary, anyway | 09:12 |
| Panzerboy | i am looking at installing it on a server | 09:12 |
| fabbione | Nemesis__: either silo is broken, your OBP is old or the kernel has issues with yout CPU | 09:12 |
| Panzerboy | bob2: x then :) | 09:12 |
| Panzerboy | sorry | 09:12 |
| bob2 | Panzerboy: the easiest way is to do a normal install and remove the stuff yo udon't want | 09:12 |
| Panzerboy | bob2: and the hard way ? :D | 09:12 |
| Nemesis__ | fabbione: debian-installer -rc2 gets past that and into booting the kernel (it does when it tries to mount a root) | 09:13 |
| bob2 | use the "expert" or "custom" boot option | 09:13 |
| Panzerboy | lots of stuff to remove :) | 09:13 |
| bob2 | but Kamion beats me whenever I suggest that | 09:13 |
| jacquesmerde | tritium: how do i start polypaudio manually? whats the start switch if -k is kill? | 09:13 |
| Panzerboy | bob2: do you have any idea if there's a doc somewhere that describes this options? | 09:13 |
| fabbione | Nemesis__: let's see. silo in debian is compiled with gcc-2.95 | 09:13 |
| fabbione | Nemesis__: we build with 3.3 | 09:13 |
| fabbione | Nemesis__: that can make silo cry | 09:13 |
| Nemesis__ | fabbione: ahhhh | 09:13 |
| bob2 | Panzerboy: it tells you this on the boot screen | 09:13 |
| tritium | jacquesmerde, yes, -k | 09:14 |
| Panzerboy | bob2: ok, thanks | 09:14 |
| jacquesmerde | tritium: so -k interchangable starts AND kills polypaudio? | 09:14 |

| Agrajag | nothing really, they're just package formats | 09:44 |
| Agrajag | and apt works with both | 09:44 |
| techn9ne | im just wondering the point of having 2 then | 09:45 |

| tweek | cdrecord dev=/dev/cdrom0 file.iso would this burn an iso image and be bootable? | 12:46 |

| mpq | but I have a snag | 12:46 |

| jdub | jacquesmerde: no, just status | 12:47 |
| jacquesmerde | jdub. no? which no? what do you mean just status? | 12:47 |
| oz | andy: when you do su use "su -". that will put you in su mode with your path's set. | 12:47 |

| mjr | realist_, I'd perhaps install xfce4 instead of gnome after the base install | 01:08 |
| mjr | that 64 megs of RAM is somewhat little | 01:08 |
| realist_ | so ur saying, i remove kde and put xfce4 instead ? | 01:08 |
| mjr | well, what I was saying was install ubuntu, then install xfce4 and use it instead of gnome, but that probably works too ;) | 01:10 |

| deki_ | bob2, are you a robot? | 02:08 |

| bob2 | deki_: are you making unsubstantiated claims because you're annoyed? | 02:08 |
| deki_ | bob2, what should i complain about? | 02:08 |
| deki_ | bob2, i will try another kernels | 02:09 |
| bob2 | deki_: you seem to think it's slower | 02:09 |
| deki_ | bob2, and then when i found out what causes the slowdown i will fil a bug , ok? | 02:09 |
| da_bon_bon | shock: http://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-users/2005-February/022862.html | 02:09 |
| Zotnix | LinuxJones, read it... it was not a good review (it wasn't trying to be objective at all) | 02:09 |
| deki_ | bob2, sure | 02:09 |
| shock | thx, will check that out | 02:09 |
| deki_ | bob2, it is visually slower | 02:09 |
| da_bon_bon | sure, np | 02:09 |
| bob2 | "visually" sounds awfully subjective | 02:09 |
| deki_ | bob2, when you look at windows, they apper from bottom to down | 02:09 |
| bob2 | that doesn't sound like a kernel issue | 02:09 |
| deki_ | bob2, you can see how the window is slowly drowed | 02:10 |
| bob2 | unless DRI somehow got disabled | 02:10 |
| njan | deki_, that doesn't sound like a kernel issue at all. | 02:10 |
| LinuxJones | Zotnix, yeah but it had some valid points like the color/naming schemes :D | 02:10 |
| shock | <da_bon_bon> --- tried that allready - wont work | 02:10 |
| deki_ | njan, what can it be then? | 02:10 |
| deki_ | i think it is preemption issue | 02:10 |
| da_bon_bon | shock: ok. worked for me. | 02:10 |
| shock | :( | 02:10 |
| deki_ | cause when i am beeing root | 02:10 |
| shock | hm | 02:10 |
| deki_ | it works much quicker | 02:10 |
| Zotnix | LinuxJones, actually that is what I was referring to. | 02:10 |
| deki_ | cause it don't get preempted | 02:10 |
| njan | deki_, that clearly demonstrates it isn't a kernel issue | 02:10 |
| deki_ | i think the x server gets preempted | 02:10 |
| da_bon_bon | but bloody polyp / esd daemon dies after some time, and i need to logout and back in! | 02:10 |

| === Nermal [~pprior@pc2.packadsl.ftech.co.uk] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| Zotnix | LinuxJones, one that could be changed very easily and one that doesn't have any bearing on whether the system is good or not. | 02:11 |
| bob2 | deki_: if it works better when you're root, then it is absolutely not a preemption issue | 02:11 |
| deki_ | njan, what clearity of permissions??!!! | 02:11 |
| deki_ | bob2, it is | 02:11 |
| deki_ | bob2, there is not preemption for root | 02:11 |
| njan | deki_, try moving your home directory and replacing it with an empty folder, log off/on as you | 02:11 |
| bob2 | no | 02:11 |
| njan | deki_, I virtually guarantee you the slowdown will have gone. | 02:11 |
| bob2 | you're wrong in this case, sorry | 02:11 |
| deki_ | njan, what ? there is nothing in there | 02:11 |
| bob2 | the kernel scheduler doesn't know or care what your uid is | 02:11 |
| deki_ | bob2, what can it be then? | 02:11 |
| deki_ | bob2, sure it does | 02:11 |

| deki_ | bob2, i read some articles on it | 02:11 |
| bob2 | deki_: no, there's not | 02:11 |

| da_bon_bon | LinuxJones: wrote what ? the hoary array4 review on madpenguin ? | 02:13 |
| bob2 | deki_: no, show my the URL. | 02:13 |
| deki_ | bob2, why the fuck i get no slowdown when i you mandrakes kernel | 02:13 |
| deki_ | bob2, it is a magazine | 02:13 |
| LinuxJones | da_bon_bon, yeah | 02:13 |
| deki_ | bob2, which is printed | 02:13 |
| pppinguin | Someone successfully setup NFSD, and other machines?.. got some settings to flood, and dont wish to spam the channel ^^ | 02:13 |
| deki_ | bob2, it is not in internet | 02:13 |
| da_bon_bon | linuxboy: that was /such/ a biased review. | 02:13 |
| Zotnix | LinuxJones, yeah. It is a sad day when a desktop manager specific distro gets a bad review because it uses a certain desktop manager | 02:13 |
| bob2 | deki_: there are lots of differences between mandrake and ubunt kernels | 02:13 |
| LinuxJones | Zotnix, he seemed pretty happy once he added the universe repo tho :D | 02:13 |
| da_bon_bon | LinuxJones: ubuntu is not for fools who dont read - he shouldve reaad that kde is in unuiverse, befor crying out loud | 02:14 |
| deki_ | bob2, sure sure | 02:14 |
| bob2 | deki_: I think it's highly premature to jump on one option which you don't seem to know much about | 02:14 |
| Zotnix | Maybe I should write a bad review for SimpleMephis because it defaults to KDE | 02:14 |
| deki_ | bob2, it is vanilla | 02:14 |
| bob2 | deki_: please file a bug if you think this is an issue | 02:14 |
| deki_ | bob2, sure and you know everything | 02:14 |
| deki_ | bob2, what should i write in a bug? | 02:14 |
| deki_ | bob2, you crazy idiot | 02:14 |
| bob2 | deki_: no, I don't know anything | 02:14 |
| bob2 | I don't much about kernel stuff at all | 02:14 |
| da_bon_bon | the ubuntu kernels are in what way different from vanilla ? | 02:14 |
| bob2 | but I'm 99% sure there is not a special schedulaer queue for uid 0 | 02:14 |

| evarlast | shock: OSS is depricated. ALSA is more feature rich. | 03:15 |
| xiximkopp | CarlK, maybe ur ubuntu is as stupid as mine and loads also oss modules... i deleted them and made an depmod... | 03:15 |
| evarlast | shock: that said, your OSS usage is probably emulated by ALSA, so it is not a big deal. | 03:16 |
| shock | the only feature I want from my sound-system is: u guessed right - SOUND :) | 03:16 |
| shock | indeed | 03:16 |
| CarlK | I could go for a simple beep too | 03:16 |

| CarlK | evarlast - thanks... | 03:25 |
| evarlast | CarlK: unless you have only TINY amounts of memory, don't worry about those modules. | 03:26 |
| evarlast | Semt-X: edit your XF86Config file, and in your "device" section, change driver from "ati" to "tdfx" | 03:26 |
| CarlK | evarlast - 80 meg.. not "tiny", but just clogging up dmsg and logs and stuff | 03:26 |
| Semt-X | the thing is, i used the config prog to generate a XF86Config file and already stated tdfx as the driver to use | 03:27 |
| evarlast | CarlK: for floppy, parport, usb - it is probably hotplug or dbus seeing that you have a floppy, parport, usb and so it loads the modules to enable them. | 03:27 |
| CarlK | evarlast - trying to figure out why modprobe snd-es18xx errors | 03:27 |
| evarlast | Semt-X: its ok, don't trust the config program. | 03:28 |

| Semt-X | evarlast, another thing about that, the XF86Config file states tdfx as the driver to load. | 03:30 |

| Necrosan | bascule: Wouldn't he just use a regular kernel then? SMP seems a bit over the top for him. | 05:27 |
| bascule | maybe there are other ways, I dunno | 05:27 |
| IrIT | should i add the acpi=ht in my grub conf? | 05:27 |
| bascule | IrIT: yeah, wherever grub has such things | 05:28 |
| orfeus | hi. how do i change file associations? default webbrowser? | 05:28 |
| njan | Necrosan, linux and windows both see HT processors as SMP, so actually it kinda makes sense.. | 05:28 |
| bascule | maybe I'll learn it one day | 05:28 |
| njan | Necrosan, my dual 3.06 machine has 4 processors according to windows :) | 05:28 |
| IrIT | hehe;D | 05:28 |
| Necrosan | njan: Ah. heh. I don't even use the x86 arch, so I wouldn't know. :) | 05:28 |
| Necrosan | Dual xeons | 05:28 |
| Necrosan | ? | 05:28 |
| bascule | I know that SMP and acpi=ht is the way it will/can work, if there are others I don't know of them | 05:28 |
| njan | Necrosan, dual xeon 3.06s. :) | 05:28 |
| Necrosan | Cool | 05:28 |

| Thom_Holwerda | fabbione, in case you're reading this: release-file problems again on sparc.ubuntu.com--- they just did an update | 05:29 |

| njan | Necrosan, :( | 05:29 |
| IrIT | but wont it work, if i doesn't add acpi=ht ? | 05:29 |
| bascule | njan: and I assume you paid the multi-processor licence for those :P | 05:29 |
| njan | Necrosan, this has dual gig-E and 3x73gb 10k SCSI raid drives :) | 05:29 |

| Xappe | the nonfree totally working unrar can be found at www.rarlabs.com | 06:12 |
| BockBilbo | Amaranth, for what? | 06:12 |

| jacquesmerde | tritium, you heard of rhythmbox being asked to import a directory, importing a couple of the files, and then sitting there searching indefinitely without importing more files? | 06:13 |
| BockBilbo | (in hoary) | 06:13 |
| sgteich | Amaranth: I found that, but I don't have any resolution about 1280X1024 listed.... | 06:13 |
| tritium | jacquesmerde, no, not really. | 06:13 |
| sgteich | above 1280 | 06:13 |
| BockBilbo | jacquesmerde, it does search | 06:13 |
| BockBilbo | but it takes lots of time | 06:13 |
| tritium | jacquesmerde, but I do know that you can install gnome themes in hidden directories | 06:13 |

| BockBilbo | it doesnt have the ESOUND package | 06:18 |

| CarlK | hoary - when I run shutdown, aimixer tries to run about 15 times - says "invalid card number" and dumps the syntax ... anyone know whats going on? | 06:18 |
| tritium | BockBilbo, it was replaced by polypaudio | 06:18 |
| mz2 | in gnome 2.9, how do i change the default apps for mime-types? | 06:18 |
| mmuller | tobbe, hoary does'nt support app adding to menu's | 06:18 |
| tritium | tobbe, that's being addressed, though | 06:18 |
| BockBilbo | tritium, what is polypaudio? | 06:18 |
| acidmaxd | tobbe: nautilus applications:/// | 06:18 |
| tritium | BockBilbo, a drop-in replacement for esound | 06:18 |
| mmuller | gnome dev's didnt like the way it worked and took the code out its not just an ubuntu problem | 06:19 |
| acidmaxd | tobbe: and then click on Internet | 06:19 |
| tobbe | ok, thanks guys | 06:19 |
| tritium | BockBilbo, it's a sound server that's designed better | 06:19 |
| BockBilbo | but... using that some programs' sound wont work | 06:19 |

| BockBilbo | thanks.. gonna see what i can do | 06:21 |

| aplsin | im trying to build psi but i get an error when running configure: | 06:24 |
| BockBilbo | tritium, nope | 06:24 |
| aplsin | There was an error compiling 'conf'. Be sure you have a proper | 06:24 |
| aplsin | Qt 3.x Multithreaded (MT) build environment set up. This | 06:24 |

| BockBilbo | i dont have to uninstall esound-comon | 06:24 |
| BockBilbo | tritium, cause i installed hoary | 06:25 |

| BockBilbo | esound-common? | 06:28 |
| cavediver | it's a binary | 06:28 |
| acidmaxd | afo-blackness: chmod +x realplayer10gold.bin && ./realplayer10gold.bin | 06:28 |

| cavediver | afo-blackness: sh real.bin | 06:28 |
| tritium | BockBilbo, no, esound | 06:28 |

| afo-blackness | it cant find it :S | 06:30 |
| Amaranth | Or is that not possible with QT? | 06:30 |
| BockBilbo | tritium, so.. if i want to switch to polypaudio do i have to remove the gnome-desktop? | 06:30 |
| BockBilbo | cause i guess i would have to remove the esound-common package, righr? | 06:30 |
| tritium | BockBilbo, no | 06:30 |

| BockBilbo | alright | 06:31 |
| afo-blackness | i did "chmod +x realplayer10gold.bin && ./realplayer10gold.bin" in my terminal and still cant find file or map | 06:31 |
| selinium_ | Hi everyone, is there anyone here who uses bluefish? I am trying to save a file but it wont let me :( | 06:31 |
| BockBilbo | so... right now for example, i have all the polypaudio packages installed and just the esound-common package | 06:31 |
| tritium | afo-blackness, what does "file realplayer10gold.bin" say? | 06:31 |
| BockBilbo | and i can heard the sound... | 06:32 |

| invisible_jim | how do you mean, evarlast? | 07:35 |
| Torakiky | crimsun, I downloaded it from ubuntulinux.org | 07:35 |
| evarlast | invisible_jim: regular debian/ubuntu kernels do not have support for IDE or SCSI in the kernel itself, but as modules. | 07:36 |
| mmuller | when will beagle be released guys ? | 07:36 |
| evarlast | so the kernel has an initrd (initial root disk) that has kernel modules (drivers) for the ide or scsi for your system. | 07:36 |
| evarlast | invisible_jim: so you need to be sure to boot with an initrd | 07:37 |
| mmuller | Yannick_, sorry can't answer that one | 07:37 |
| Yannick_ | mmuller, no problem | 07:37 |
| invisible_jim | yea, ill have to check to make sure, but i think i am. i use the '--initrd binary' option when building the .deb and my grub menu lists an initrd for the new kernel | 07:38 |
| === magusq3 [~ben@fia88-117.dsl.hccnet.nl] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| evarlast | invisible_jim: sounds good. on boot you should see where it mounts the initrd and loads the ide kernel modules. If you don't see those, you can tell it is not using initrd, or the initrd doesn't have the ide modules. | 07:39 |

| afo-blackness | yeah mp 3 works now in linux cool ^^ | 07:41 |
| evarlast | invisible_jim: you may run mkinitrd manually and see if it puts ide and ext3 modules in there ( the same it true for filesystems ) - you can force it by adding modules to /etc/mkinitrd/modules | 07:41 |

| vi111e | can someone name all the dvd/video-players that I can apt-get to ubuntu | 07:42 |
| invisible_jim | im using xconfig to configure the kernel, and telling it to compile code for IDE support (not as a module), is that enough? or do i need to be more explicit about getting support in the initrd? | 07:42 |

| BockBilbo | but | 08:25 |
| JDigital | oh, it works if I run it in a terminal. | 08:25 |
| tritium | JDigital, did you hand-edit? | 08:25 |
| BockBilbo | you dont even need to do pkill polypaudio | 08:25 |
| thoreauputic | JDigital: you should get asked questions | 08:25 |
| tritium | BockBilbo, you don't think so: | 08:26 |
| tritium | ? | 08:26 |
| BockBilbo | nope... | 08:26 |
| Tsjoklat | tritium, yes they do.. it is after al the best :) | 08:26 |
| BockBilbo | i just log in to the sesssion | 08:26 |
| BockBilbo | and do | 08:26 |
| thoreauputic | JDigital: if you edited the file, you will ahve to do it manually | 08:26 |
| BockBilbo | polypaudio -k | 08:26 |
| BockBilbo | and | 08:26 |
| tritium | Tsjoklat, cool. What kind of place? | 08:26 |
| BockBilbo | polypaudio -nF /etc/polypaudio/default.pa | 08:26 |
| thoreauputic | JDigital: which is why it isn't recommanded | 08:26 |
| JDigital | o | 08:26 |
| JDigital | what's the recommended method then | 08:26 |
| thoreauputic | *recommended | 08:26 |
| BockBilbo | let me see it if works just with oe of those | 08:26 |
| BockBilbo | brb | 08:27 |
| tritium | BockBilbo, the polypaudio -k didn't work, but that tries to kill it, just like pkill | 08:27 |

| JDigital | I'm using that | 08:27 |
| BockBilbo | i see | 08:27 |
| BockBilbo | o same same | 08:27 |
| BockBilbo | ok | 08:27 |
| thoreauputic | JDigital: if you have hoary, substitute xserver-xorg in the command | 08:27 |

| dtygel | no errors at all. It works just fine. | 10:43 |
| dtygel | During boot, fsck gives up! | 10:44 |
| thoreauputic | you set "users" so that should work | 10:44 |

| Beertje|GONE | shoot ;) | 10:45 |
| vi11e | thoreauputic: you know where I could change my whole system encodings ? | 10:45 |
| dtygel | There is another problem: As user, I don't have the rights to right, although I put "users" and "rw" options! Why? | 10:45 |
| thoreauputic | vi11e: hmm - maybe sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales ? | 10:45 |
| dtygel | It doesnt even recognize the directories. Only when I'm as root in nautilus can I see the directories. | 10:45 |

| Jeremy_D | whats a good copy of winamp for linux? | 10:46 |
| thoreauputic | kbrooks: try dpkg-reconfigure ez-ipupdate, and choose automatic config by debconf, answer the questions | 10:47 |
| thoreauputic | Jeremy_D: xmms, beep-media-player | 10:47 |
| kbrooks | dtygel, check the permission of the actual directory you mounted your partition under | 10:47 |
| thoreauputic | beep looks better but has less options | 10:47 |
| Beertje|GONE | Jeremy_D, xmms is winamp it's practicly the same | 10:47 |
