| jnk | delltony, maybe try the hoary livecd... | 01:52 |
| delltony | yeah that might work | 01:52 |

| jnk | how did you install hoary? | 02:02 |
| jnk | upgrade ? | 02:02 |
| delltony | with upgrade | 02:02 |
| mebaran151 | delltony, in theory you can do it by apt | 02:02 |
| mebaran151 | but I found apt was sometimes flaky over huge installs | 02:02 |
| jnk | I would go with upgrade anyway... | 02:02 |
| mebaran151 | so I did a clean reinstall | 02:02 |
| mebaran151 | and had the best of luck | 02:03 |
| jnk | and if it doesn't work you can reinstall | 02:03 |
| mebaran151 | you just have to hope apt doesnt make any oopses | 02:03 |
| delltony | yeah i think its cause i use backports | 02:03 |

| zenrox | ask away | 03:17 |
| LinuxJones | delltony, it doesn't look like a module has been aded for it. Looks like you will need to use ndiswrapper | 03:17 |
| delltony | ok thats fine no big deal was just curious | 03:17 |
| Daylighter | well | 03:17 |
| delltony | i hope this works for me | 03:17 |

| Daylighter | Well this ordeal is why :) | 03:20 |
| godsmoke | this has nothing to do with ubuntu | 03:20 |
| regeya | Daylighter: when the machine boots, hold down Option-Command-P-R, and keep holding those keys until you've heard the startup "bong" sound three times. | 03:20 |
| helio1 | can anyone explain to me what "error C++ preprocessor "/ib/cpp" fails sanity check" means? (Trying to compile something) | 03:20 |
| regeya | Then, hold down Option-Apple-O-F | 03:20 |
| regeya | godsmoke: hi, have we met? | 03:20 |
| GammaRay | godsmoke: as far as the debian manu system is complicated and error prone and since ubuntu is focused on gnome, why should there be any pains taken to share a menu? | 03:20 |
| helio1 | it says there's a config.log but I don't know where it is if it's not in /var/log/ | 03:20 |
| LinuxJones | helio1, install build-essential | 03:21 |
| godsmoke | regeya: dunno ... maybe | 03:21 |
| godsmoke | GammaRay: well ... because it's the smart, and modular way to handle it | 03:21 |
| helio1 | thanks linuxJones | 03:21 |
| godsmoke | because honestly, you can focus on whatever you like -- but the option of other window managers should always be there -- and that doesn't mean kicking them to the curb | 03:21 |
| regeya | godsmoke, if I'm telling Daylighter wrong, burst in with the right answer, rather than asking me why I'm doing it. I don't mind. :-D | 03:21 |
| LinuxJones | helio1, :) | 03:22 |
| Daylighter | lol | 03:22 |
| godsmoke | regeya: no no -- I agree with your recommendation | 03:22 |
| GammaRay | there are no other desktops shipped w/ ubuntu anyways | 03:22 |
| godsmoke | GammaRay: I'm aware | 03:22 |
| regeya | ANYWAY | 03:22 |
| Daylighter | hihi thanks regeya i will try it | 03:22 |
| regeya | Daylighter: to make sure nvram is zapped after that, hold down Option-Command-O-F, and when you get an open firmware prompt, type these in: | 03:23 |
| godsmoke | GammaRay: I wasn't aware it was ubuntu's goal to have an extremely isolated distribution -- that's the point of keeping universe/multiverse around | 03:23 |
| regeya | reset-nvram | 03:23 |
| regeya | reset-all | 03:23 |
| regeya | and if you get an error on reset-nvram, try 'set-defaults' | 03:23 |
| dev3 | Has anyone compiled winex cvs before? | 03:23 |
| regeya | then try booting off of cd | 03:23 |
| godsmoke | anyway bbl -- gotta put unstable on this box | 03:23 |
| Daylighter | oki | 03:23 |
| GammaRay | Don't you just hate people who say something like that and then.. leave. | 03:24 |

| Chipzz | geppy: for finding out the chipset, that is | 05:13 |
| geppy | Chipzz: Right. | 05:13 |
| godsmoke | geppy: how did you declare that it didn't 'detect' it? | 05:13 |
| geppy | I couldn't find anything in the dmesg output. | 05:13 |
| helio7 | godsmoke: so you're saying that you don't know how to help me or what? because I don't expect anything but you asked me questions about my problem, offering assitance and such and now you're just basically calling me a newbie... I'm grateful for any help I can get but... | 05:13 |
| godsmoke | helio7: well ... you shouldn't be starting X like that -- you should be starting it via gdm, or another display manager | 05:14 |
| geppy | Is there a kudzu-like app that I can use? Or should I just install kudzu? | 05:14 |
| Chipzz | or use startx | 05:14 |

| Dr_willis | yea. edit (make) the .xinitrc and use startx is a good way to twiddle with X and learn things. :P | 05:14 |
| helio7 | ok startx didn't work in Warty for some readon but now it did... thanks Chipzz you solved my problem lol | 05:15 |
| Chipzz | geppy: you can also do kspci -v, it produces more output | 05:15 |
| godsmoke | Chipzz: I've never seen a chipset identified through lspci | 05:15 |
| geppy | Chipzz: Alright. I just ran discover, but I didn't see whatever it was that it did; what should I do, now? | 05:15 |
| Chipzz | but probably not much usefull information | 05:15 |
| geppy | It's calling it an unknown device. I think that I'll just let it lie, at least for now. | 05:16 |
| Chipzz | godsmoke: it can give you a clue as to what chipset it is | 05:16 |

| godsmoke | bur[n] er: it is a silly question -- because gtk-theme-switch is for using gtk2 themes in gtk+ | 05:29 |

| ells | techn9ne, if you are in hoary, you cannot get any of those becasue of deps | 06:36 |

| GammaRay | ofcourse | 06:37 |
| SiRrUs | bur[n] er whats the trick for burning isos with graveman | 06:37 |
| GammaRay | I mean you personally | 06:37 |
| bur[n] er | SiRrUs: duplicate cd | 06:37 |
| bur[n] er | SiRrUs: then the source is a .iso | 06:37 |
| da_bon_bon | can anyone tell me where cedega stores its configs ? | 06:37 |
| bur[n] er | to make an image, the target is .iso ;) | 06:37 |
| crimsun | da_bon_bon: #cedega | 06:38 |
| Tzi | Has anyone used array 5? Is it reasonably stable and complete? | 06:38 |
| techn9ne | da_bon_bon: never heard of that program but probably $home/cedega | 06:38 |
| da_bon_bon | crimsun: thanks, didnt know that channel existed | 06:38 |
| bur[n] er | not terribly intuitive, but you can also do "file -> copy cd and iso image" | 06:38 |
| techn9ne | or $home/.cedega | 06:38 |
| Tzi | ...And coherent | 06:38 |

| Agrajag | kindrom: it's necessary. | 09:09 |
| Agrajag | mp3 is patented by Fraunhofer. | 09:10 |
| Agrajag | well, them and Thomson, I think | 09:10 |
| Agrajag | Anyway, they charge a fee for anyone who wants to distribute an mp3 codec. | 09:10 |
| kindrom | I use Gentoo normally, so docs aren't exactly foreign. I just figured Ubuntu was more... user-friendly. | 09:10 |
| principerobot | please somebody know how I can know the address of the dns-server of my LAN? | 09:10 |
| kindrom | Guess not. | 09:10 |
| arbeck | kindrom: if a distrubition shipped with mp3 ability they could be sued out of existence | 09:11 |
| Agrajag | So, they cannot legally distribute an mp3 encoder in countries where that patent is valid, without paying out the nose for licensing | 09:11 |

| zeno | ok, then what is the program that sets the mixers for gnome, so I know where to find, or to use aumix at system start where would be appropriate to do this setting after driver loading. | 09:19 |
| Amaranth | zeno: If you set and save it with aumix it should stay. | 09:20 |
| === craigaa [~craigaa@nngy-165-170-165.telkomadsl.co.za] has joined #ubuntu | ||

| yohannes | monoxide > can u elaborate | 11:32 |
| yohannes | yes i have only one file which is in iso format | 11:32 |
| monoxide | an iso file is an archive | 11:32 |
| monoxide | so instead of burning the files contained in the archive, you burnt the archive itself to the cd | 11:32 |
| yohannes | so how can i burn an iso image to a cd which at the end is "decompressed"? | 11:33 |

| kindrom | warty. | 12:14 |
| monoxide | its a Genius | 12:14 |
| kindrom | At least, I installed from a warty boot disc. | 12:14 |
| silverbirch | when I was thinking about trying linux again I looked around and mandrake 10.1 and ubuntu were the ones took my eye | 12:14 |
| silverbirch | I guess mandrake partly because of parttioning | 12:14 |
| silverbirch | actually that was a big factor - I didn't feel comfortable partitionaing hard disk | 12:15 |
| Riddell | kindrom: right, I see the problem, kvim depends on a specific version of vim which has been upgraded. not sure if there's anything we can do but I'll look into it | 12:15 |
| Nermal | eep | 12:15 |
| kindrom | Riddell: I don't care about the version of vim, just that it's ~recent and actually there. | 12:16 |
| kindrom | i.e., not deleted. | 12:16 |
| silverbirch | has anyone here done boot with two ther OS eg winXp and Mandrake with ubuntu as the third? | 12:17 |
| Riddell | kindrom: just remove kvim, it's broken (because it depends on a specific version of vim which isn't available because the ubuntu people have upgraded it) | 12:17 |
| kindrom | Removal of kvim requires removal of kde. | 12:17 |
| === kindrom upgraded vim to the latest and is now installing kde again to see what will happen. | ||
| Riddell | kindrom: kde is just a meta package to being in all the other kde packages, it won't remove any other package to have "kde" removed | 12:18 |

| pybe | silverbirch: not tried it with another linux install but its fine with windows | 12:31 |

| Amaranth | I'd like to use reiser4 if hoary supports it | 12:37 |

| sls | why does Ubuntu not antialias the fonts of kde apps that you install (like k3b) | 02:24 |
| sls | is that normal or did i break something | 02:24 |
| bascule | perhaps it doesn't have those fonts | 02:24 |

| duplimelody | hey can anyone help me i cant get k3b working | 02:36 |
| duplimelody | it gives me this: | 02:36 |
| duplimelody | cdrecord does not run with root privileges | 02:36 |
| duplimelody | It is highly recommended to configure cdrecord to run with root privileges. Only then cdrecord runs with high priority which increases the overall stability of the burning process. Apart from that it allows changing the size of the used burning buffer. A lot of user problems could be solved this way. This is also true when using SuSE's resmgr. | 02:36 |
| duplimelody | Solution: Use K3bSetup to solve this problem. | 02:36 |

| ICU | krism, that will disable all sounds, won't it? i only want to disable the speaker beep not the sound played on my soundcard. | 03:24 |
| Amaranth | universal: gksudo is what pops up the little dialog to type in your password for a GUI app | 03:24 |
| Amaranth | universal: So instead of a shortcut running, say, k3b you have it run gksudo k3b | 03:25 |

| krism | ICU: ooops my bad | 03:26 |
| universal | Amaranth, so i can actually write fx write gksudo Point2Play if i whant? | 03:26 |
| CarlK | on a similar note - warty on a toshiba 2800, it starts playing bongo drums shortly after X starts, and wont stop | 03:26 |
| krism | universal : then just prefix the program name with sudo.. you can edit the shortcut and prefix 'sudo' if you want. | 03:26 |
| CarlK | I thnk it is kinda funny, but my gf wants it to stop | 03:26 |
| JDigital | hehe | 03:27 |
| thoreauputic | soory - re terminal bell - under "edit profile" untick the bell | 03:27 |
| universal | Amaranth, exactly, and as you say i also need to be gksudo when running K3B | 03:27 |
| CarlK | anyone know where the "play bongo soundtrack loop" option is? | 03:27 |

| farruinn | if you're in hoary you should be using xorg | 05:26 |
| JCarax | ne0genius, and you'll see the external disks | 05:26 |
| ne0genius | JCarax: its /dev/sda | 05:26 |
| JCarax | like "/dev/sda5" | 05:26 |
| aplsin | ne0genius: yeah i know, i've noticed ubuntu has pretty good support for most things out of the boxt. (been using it for less than a week so far) | 05:26 |
| farruinn | and really, afaik xfree86 is removed when xorg is installed | 05:26 |
| aplsin | boxt -> box | 05:27 |
| JCarax | ne0genius, so just "umount /dev/sda" | 05:27 |
| ne0genius | aplsin: im thrilled | 05:27 |
| Trigx300 | hey does anyone here do desktop publishing (comp graphics) using scribus, the gimp, quark ece.. | 05:27 |
| apokryphos | farruinn: Yeah, I *should* be. Is it right, though, that Xfree86 is running? | 05:27 |
| ne0genius | JCarax: cool thanks .. hopefully i can find a solution to the other problem soon | 05:27 |
| JCarax | ne0genius, good luck | 05:27 |
| ne0genius | JCarax: thx | 05:27 |
| apokryphos | farruinn: I'm almost entirely certain that I selected xorg as the default after the initial installation of it, but I see xfree still running. | 05:27 |

| apokryphos | LinuxJones: Definitely, yes. | 05:29 |
| apokryphos | farruinn: Yup. | 05:29 |
| Kwiat | farruinn, what do you think what would be easier/funnier? to start with python or c? phython, i guess :) | 05:29 |
| farruinn | have you tried 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg'? | 05:29 |
| LinuxJones | apokryphos, it should have removed xserver-xfree86 apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade | 05:29 |
| apokryphos | LinuxJones: Oh wait. Ergh .Xserver-xorg isn't installed. ;-) | 05:29 |
| farruinn | Kwiat: I think python is a good language to start with | 05:29 |
| aplsin | ne0genius: me too, this is the best "easy" distro i have used. (i'm an ex gentoo-user) | 05:29 |
| LinuxJones | apokryphos, install that and xserver-xfree86 will go away :) | 05:29 |

| sys2 | its not the ubuntu kernel :> | 07:17 |
| apokryphos | mamadou: However, to repeat, you did say you wanted kde 3.3. The easiest way to get that (especially if you've got dsl) is to upgrade to hoary. What you do is up to you. | 07:17 |

| === wizard_2 [~wizard@24-193-223-149.nyc.rr.com] has left #ubuntu [] | ||
| sys2 | or .. the distro i use | 07:17 |
| jmob | sys2: linux-image-2.6.10-amd64 something | 07:17 |
| helio7 | mamadou: because hoary supports kde by default. in April it will be live, but now it's working a few kinks out. If you're new to linux you might just try sticking with gnome for a bit or trying something light like fluxbox for a while until hoary is considered "stable" Still it's easier to deal with a fully supported KDE on hoary than hacking it together yourself on warty... either way you are risking something I guess | 07:17 |
| apokryphos | sys2: See the tweaking thread in the forums | 07:18 |
| jmob | sys2: steal the kernel config from the ubuntu kernel then | 07:18 |

| evarlast | jmob: I don't see any good reason to run sshd via inetd, except on VERY low memory systems where you don't want it memory resident. | 07:44 |
| farruinn | Trigx300: you don't want to be running any old thing as root because root can do anything it wants | 07:44 |
| evarlast | jmob: sshd respects tcpwrappers itself, so you don't need inetd for that. | 07:45 |
| mamadou | still don't see what is behind this monkey ass joke ! | 07:45 |
| jmob | mamadou: is your cd-rom volume muted? | 07:45 |
| farruinn | Trigx300: you only use sudo when you need to modify your system in some way (eg installing software) but something like a p2p app just run as your normal user | 07:45 |
| mamadou | no | 07:45 |
| mamadou | it is on | 07:45 |
| jmob | mamadou: is your cd-rom hooked up to your sound card? | 07:45 |
| hawke_ | Trigx300: I agree with farruinn, with the addition that it's especially true of programs that do loads of networking stuff, as mldonkey does. | 07:45 |
| mamadou | i use alsamixer | 07:45 |

| farruinn | Trigx300: when you run 'mldonkey' from the command line you get nothing? | 07:46 |
| kcs | , can i have a question? :) | 07:46 |
| jmob | thorN: inetd starts a service when an incoming connection comes in for a given port | 07:47 |

| geppy | either way, I'm running warty, and I'm thinking that I'll switch back to Hoary soon, so I might as well properly break warty, first. =) | 09:58 |
| kroon | How do I update to Hoary from a warty install? I've fixed /etc/apt/sources.list | 09:59 |
| SeanQ | kroon, it's in ubuntuguide | 09:59 |
| stuNNed | to update system, is apt-get dist-upgrade safe to run? | 09:59 |
| SeanQ | after sources change... | 09:59 |
| SeanQ | $ sudo apt-get update | 09:59 |
| SeanQ | $ sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 09:59 |
| farruinn | I actually think that's the preferred method | 09:59 |
| SeanQ | yep | 09:59 |
| stuNNed | it is? | 09:59 |
| farruinn | yes, because it will remove packages that you don't need to fulfill dependencies of new packages, etc | 10:00 |
| stuNNed | ok | 10:00 |
| farruinn | or, new dependencies of upgraded packages I guess | 10:00 |
| kroon | SeanQ, ok thanks | 10:01 |
| farruinn | geppy: so what makes you want to go back to hoary? | 10:01 |

| monkey89 | bjugis, is there a hotplug blacklist to add it to | 11:01 |
| mmuller | it might be that its not being initialised on boot | 11:01 |
