| wdh | dnlien, yes.. add the proper alias to .bashrc in your homedir | 12:32 |

| monkey89 | since the cdrom drive are /media/cdrom0 but show up as "CD-ROM 1" | 12:58 |
| yojimbo | then, cd into it, "make config" (or make menuconfig, but you'll need to install libncurses5-dev first iirc) | 12:58 |

| carajean | yeah its just a world of warcraft file | 02:05 |
| tritium | tux, the linux kernel has several different modules for various webcams | 02:05 |

| chillywi1ly | brb | 02:08 |
| Ainvar | how can I tell if I am using polyaudio? | 02:08 |
| tritium | i.e., if you've stayed current, your audio should have grown a big nasty polyp on it | 02:08 |

| bestadvocate | Ainvar: its much cleaner interface, but less cool features pre-packaged | 02:08 |
| carajean | i did | 02:08 |
| P229 | carajean: set permissions to read and write for owner | 02:08 |

| bestadvocate | tritium: im current, updated 20 min ago | 02:09 |
| CarlK | marinela - or do you mean a diskless setup? | 02:09 |

| tritium | Ainvar, pgrep polyp. It it returns a PID, you're running it. | 02:09 |

| thenuke | http://www.tuxme.com/node/315 in here, I am told to update && upgrade after majorly editing sources | 02:15 |
| thenuke | tritium: ah | 02:15 |
| tux | im trying to update nessus plugins a la, nessus-update-plugins | 02:15 |
| carajean | can anyone make sense of this line someone told me to type:: mount /mnt/cdrom && cp -Rf /mnt/cdrom/* ~/wow && umount /mnt/cdrom | 02:15 |

| jimcooncat | that's why I using ubuntu, and going to run gentoo in uml. | 02:24 |
| tritium | jimcooncat, it makes building kernels fairly simple. After installing the package, read the docs in /usr/share/doc/kernel-package | 02:24 |

| tritium | Chipzz, the wiki does have a page on using kernel-package | 02:24 |
| === Ravage boot his gentoo cd and chroots to ubuntu | ||
| Chipzz | tritium: btw what is the recommended way of getting patched sources? apt-get source linux-image or apt-get install kernel-source ? | 02:25 |

| Chipzz | all saying different things | 02:25 |
| Chipzz | s/does have/has/ | 02:25 |
| tritium | Chipzz, linux-source includes ubuntu patches. Beyond that, you'll need whatever patches you want. | 02:26 |
| tritium | so, neither linux-image or kernel-source | 02:26 |
| kbrooks | uml? | 02:26 |
| Chipzz | tritium: they both do, they just have different ways of patching stuff | 02:26 |
| Chipzz | kbrooks: user mode linux | 02:26 |

| kbrooks | and that is? | 02:27 |
| jimcooncat | user-mode-linux, not to be confused with diagramming software | 02:27 |
| tritium | Chipzz, you can use kernel-source, but that's got debian patches, not ubuntu | 02:27 |
| jimcooncat | runs linux within linux | 02:27 |
| kbrooks | and how do i do that | 02:27 |
| Chipzz | tritium: note that I said apt-get source linux-image and apt-get install kernel-source | 02:27 |

| tritium | thenuke, so what does the dist-upgrade want to do? | 02:34 |
| Assassinater | i want IceWm | 02:34 |
| Chipzz | what I'm trying to figure out is... what is the equivalent package for linux-restricted-modules like linux-source? | 02:34 |
| kbrooks | Assassinater, then enable universe | 02:34 |
| tritium | Chipzz, there's not one. They're binary only. That's why they're restricted. | 02:34 |
| Assassinater | i did wmaker it was wired | 02:34 |
| Chipzz | tritium: there is nvidia-kernel-source | 02:34 |
| Assassinater | icewm i want cause it looks cool | 02:34 |
| tritium | Chipzz, yes. | 02:35 |
| tritium | Chipzz, answer above still holds. | 02:35 |
| Chipzz | tritium: and the nvidia is not binary only | 02:35 |
| Chipzz | it has a restricted license | 02:35 |
| MacPlusG3 | Chipzz: it is. they have a few source files and a big binary blob | 02:35 |
| Chipzz | the nvidia module comes with source, the opengl driver not | 02:35 |
| === derelm [~test@pD9E9FAB5.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| Chipzz | MacPlusG3: the kernel module is not, the opengl driver is | 02:35 |
| Chipzz | but I just want the kernel module | 02:35 |
| tritium | Chipzz, yes, but other drivers are binary only. | 02:35 |
| daniels | Chipzz: er, apt-get source linux-restricted-modules | 02:35 |
| CarlK | derelm - https://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/RecoveryFromBadInstallCD/ | 02:36 |
| daniels | Chipzz: nvidia-kernel-source carries the kernel source for nvidia; there's fglrx also | 02:36 |
| Assassinater | i did enable universe | 02:36 |
| MacPlusG3 | daniels: unless they've changed things in the past few years, there's a kernel binary blob for nvidia stuff, right? | 02:36 |
| Chipzz | daniels: but there is no such thing like _one_ source package for that? | 02:36 |
| derelm | argh, thanks everyone, i misinterpreted the password prompt that sudo gives, it wants my password, not a "not-set" root passwort | 02:36 |
| daniels | MacPlusG3: correct | 02:36 |
| CarlK | derelm let me know if that does anything for you, and if I should add anything to it | 02:36 |

| === MacPlusG3 rants about binary only being evil. | ||
| daniels | Chipzz: what? no | 02:38 |
| daniels | Chipzz: linux-restricted-modules is one source package, that contains nvidia, fglrx, all that sort of thing | 02:38 |
| CarlK | kbrooks - might as well use http://krecipes.sourceforge.net for cd ripping ;) | 02:38 |
| daniels | Chipzz: it builds many binary packages (linux-restricted-modules for every kernel, nvidia-glx, xorg-driver-fglrx, etc) | 02:39 |
| Chipzz | daniels: you're mixing up 2 things here | 02:39 |

| daniels | Chipzz: *sigh*, no | 02:40 |
| daniels | Chipzz: all binary packages are produced from a source package | 02:40 |
| daniels | Chipzz: apt-get source linux-restricted-modules is the source package for linux-restricted-modules, nvidia-glx, and friends | 02:41 |
| CarlK | HiddenWolf - .wav ;) | 02:41 |
| tritium | HiddenWolf, flac would work | 02:41 |
| daniels | Chipzz: running dpkg-buildpackage on it will give you all the packages that are built from l-r-m | 02:41 |
| chillywi1ly | you could use flac | 02:41 |
| daniels | Chipzz: apt-get install foo-source is not a generic thing and does not usually work | 02:41 |
| HiddenWolf | tritium: are there any comparisons around? | 02:41 |
| chillywi1ly | it's lossless compression | 02:41 |
| daniels | Chipzz: (trust me, I maintain linux-restricted-modules) | 02:41 |
| chillywi1ly | and a bit smaller tan .wav | 02:41 |
| chillywi1ly | than | 02:41 |
| Chipzz | daniels: I have built my own kernels on debian with make-kpkg and alsa and nvidia drivers allready | 02:42 |
| tritium | HiddenWolf, it sounds as good as the originals ;) | 02:42 |
| Chipzz | but I find the ubuntu way a little confusing | 02:42 |
| CarlK | HiddenWolf - Moose Pack! | 02:42 |

| CarlK | HiddenWolf - check out http://musepack.net | 02:43 |
| chillywi1ly | HiddenWolf: http://flac.sourceforge.net/ | 02:43 |

| josue | i think so... i've got the warty PPC liveCD | 02:47 |
| Chipzz | daniels: where I'm going wrong is in assuming that linux-restricted-modules is built in conjunction with linux-image, which it's not, it's built seperately | 02:47 |

| Chipzz | nvidia-source is used in conjuction with kernel-source | 02:48 |

| shadeofgrey | whichever is better | 02:50 |
| tritium | shadeofgrey, you're okay with Hoary being in development? | 02:50 |
| Chipzz | daniels: how about appending "Use this package if you're building your own kernels with make-kpkg"? | 02:50 |
| shadeofgrey | and once again, i DONT want the install CD -- i need a PPC version of the LiveCD | 02:51 |
| daniels | Chipzz: as the entire description? | 02:51 |
| shadeofgrey | my boss at work wants to try it on his powerbook | 02:51 |
| shadeofgrey | im running the hoary version myself. it runs fine | 02:51 |
| tritium | shadeofgrey, http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ | 02:51 |
| shadeofgrey | hasnt crashed once | 02:51 |
| Chipzz | daniels: (I think it's confusing in that way that the current description suggests building your own kernel with make-kpkg is deprecated in some way - but maybe I'm just misinterpreting) | 02:51 |
| tritium | shadeofgrey, you can choose if you want the latest daily, or array | 02:51 |
| daniels | Chipzz: i think the disclaimer on it right now is alright; if you know enough to abandon security support and regular updates, i'd hope you knew how the kernel packaging mechanism works | 02:51 |
| Chipzz | daniels: no, appended to the current description :) | 02:52 |
| daniels | Chipzz: it's not deprecated, just that you shouldn't ever do it | 02:52 |
| derelm | kent: hmm, is it not activated by default? the standard installation left me with a grub command that appends splash to the kernels parameters ... so i thought ... | 02:53 |
| Chipzz | daniels: it's just that if I understand correctly, that package is not used to build the official modules) | 02:53 |
| shadeofgrey | okay im downloading it now... heres my next question.. how do i burn the iso under linux? ive never used my CD burner under ubuntu | 02:53 |
| HiddenWolf | ugh, how do I get the flac encoder installed? | 02:53 |
| shadeofgrey | can i just right click on the file and say Burn? | 02:53 |
| shadeofgrey | or do i have to mount the CDRW and then burn it? | 02:53 |
| shadeofgrey | does ubuntu come with a CD burning app? | 02:53 |
| Chipzz | nautilus can burn cd's | 02:53 |
| daniels | Chipzz: correct. the official modules are built by the same source package (nvidia-kernel-source is a binary package). l-r-m source builds l-r-m-* binaries and nvidia-*. | 02:53 |
| tritium | shadeofgrey, you should be able to right-click, and have nautilus burn it, yes | 02:53 |

| regeya | animated gifs are simple in gimp, if that's what you'd like to do. make a separate layer for each cell, then when that's done, go to Filter->Animation->Optimize (For GIF). Changing the speed of the animation is as simple as changing the time values in parens on each layer. | 03:32 |

| lavigj | lynrob: using cups? | 04:39 |
| kakalto | how do I do that? | 04:39 |
| tritium | lavigj, okay, it's not too difficult. apt-get source --compile, presuming you have the build-deps installed | 04:39 |
| JDahl | lynrob, did you look at www.linuxprinting.org? | 04:39 |
| dud | kakalto, man blacklist | 04:40 |
| tritium | qlo-xael, did you enable the security repo? | 04:40 |
| lavigj | tritium: yeah, but what if I don't have the correct versions of the build deps? | 04:40 |
| qlo-xael | tritium, i feel like a newbie, i can't find that option in synaptic | 04:40 |
| tritium | kakalto, append them to /etc/hotplug/blacklist | 04:40 |
| tritium | qlo-xael, want to edit /etc/apt/sources.list? | 04:40 |
| lynrob | i will go there now | 04:41 |
| kakalto | dud, "no manual entry for blacklist" | 04:41 |

| TetrisMaster | i dont knwo where to get that info at | 05:20 |
| tritium | TetrisMaster, the specs for your monitor. Did you try ddcprobe, anyway? | 05:20 |
| JDahl | TetrisMaster, try google for your monitor name + XF86Config | 05:20 |
| mebaran151 | Seq, let me check | 05:21 |
| tritium | TetrisMaster, did you inspect /var/log/Xorg.0.log? | 05:21 |
| membreya | tritium: ddcprobe says no vesa extensions found... | 05:21 |
| membreya | at least for mine | 05:21 |

| tritium | membreya, are you having X problems too? | 05:21 |
| membreya | tritium: only in getting my res to 1280x1024 | 05:21 |
| mebaran151 | membreya, double check your monitor refresh rates | 05:22 |
| mebaran151 | mine were sort of borked | 05:22 |
| tritium | membreya, try specifying your monitor's HorizSync and VertRefresh in xorg.conf | 05:22 |
| dan_ | hmm... "Multimedia Systems Selector" hanging... | 05:22 |
| mebaran151 | as I have an LCD that requires the horizontal and vertical be some really low number | 05:22 |
| mebaran151 | like 50 | 05:22 |
| tritium | TetrisMaster, use sudo | 05:22 |
| membreya | see...the screen doesnt even change to 1280x1024 nor gives me the option..even tho I've reconfigured xorg | 05:22 |

| tritium | so I shut up and listen | 05:25 |
| membreya | he's the man when he has the @ :P | 05:25 |
| daniels | so if you put just the resolution in xorg.conf it should be fine; you won't need HorizSync or VertRefresh in there | 05:25 |
| daniels | if you delete HorizSync and VertRefresh, you should get the full range of resolutions | 05:25 |

| === KingTong is now known as TongMaster | ||
| membreya | zenrox: but my original question...to which sles answered with skype..is what program is best for webcam | 06:52 |
| lappy | GammaRay, so default wm in ubuntu is gnome then? and kde can be installed separately if necessary | 06:52 |
| GammaRay | lappy: it can | 06:52 |
| |QuaD- | lappy: i am running kde | 06:53 |
| GammaRay | lappy: but kde is not on the cd | 06:53 |
| kaha | he said Jehovah :/ | 06:53 |
| calamari | quad: when you exit kde apps do you get a sigsegv? | 06:53 |
| lappy | GammaRay, but gnome is. correct? | 06:53 |
| zenrox | membreya, to bad i dont have a webcam just casue id have an awser for you | 06:53 |
| GammaRay | lappy: it can be gotten from the "universe" repository | 06:53 |
| |QuaD- | calamari: nope | 06:53 |
| GammaRay | lappy: yea | 06:53 |
| lappy | i can live with that. | 06:53 |
| calamari | quad: hmm weird.. maybe because I just have the libs and not the full kde | 06:53 |
| |QuaD- | lappy: are you on a broadband connection? | 06:53 |
| lappy | yea | 06:54 |
| |QuaD- | calamari: i used to have just the libs | 06:54 |
| |QuaD- | lappy: apt-get is amazing, doesn't matter whats on the cd | 06:54 |
| lappy | also, is there a short description of what ubuntu comes bundled with? i am looking on the ubuntu website but no luck yet | 06:54 |
| |QuaD- | lappy: just about everything you need is available throuhg apt | 06:55 |
| GammaRay | (let it be said that urpmi is just as nice as apt) | 06:55 |

| lappy | and what was the kernel version in 4.10? | 06:57 |

| calamari | if there were a security hole they'd offer an update package, right? | 06:58 |
| lappy | what is the difference between live-install and just install iso versions? is live-install the one that downloads packages off the net | 06:58 |
| kaha | and 9x works fine. | 06:58 |
| |QuaD- | lappy: its either live cd or install | 06:59 |

| helio7 | oh so I got about 5 more ubuntu machines set up for my school (elementary school) today... I'm trying to decide whether to keep gnome or goto fluxbox or something as many of them are like older 333mhz machines...

| elf | not to great but im saving up for better | 09:07 |
| Neil3 | yeah just to sudo apt-get install linux-686 | 09:07 |
| zenrox | yep | 09:07 |
| dud | celerons are so fucking incredibly crap.... | 09:07 |
| dud | it cant be expressed with words | 09:07 |
| zenrox | not mine | 09:07 |
| Neil3 | that will install the newest kernel for you | 09:07 |
| elf | lol | 09:07 |
| Neil3 | and specially compiled for your class of cpu elf | 09:07 |
| Neil3 | sudo apt-get install linux-686 | 09:07 |
| Neil3 | :) | 09:07 |
| dud | i had a 2.2Ghz celly before... and I mean... at was so fucking slow I nearly crapped myself | 09:07 |
| elf | u say its big? | 09:07 |
| Neil3 | you should get a nice little speed increase out of that | 09:07 |
| zenrox | dud some of that is the mobo | 09:07 |
| elf | lol its an old pc | 09:07 |
| zenrox | elf 15-30 megs | 09:08 |

| elf | ok thats fine...i was just scared that id cap | 09:08 |
| zenrox | dud mine is in a p4 board | 09:08 |
| zenrox | elf onec that is installed reboot | 09:08 |
| topyli | hmm. the prelink man page describes some scary stuff i don't fully understand. is it safe? | 09:08 |
| zenrox | topyli, yes | 09:08 |
| elf | onec? | 09:08 |
| zenrox | once | 09:08 |
| topyli | ok | 09:09 |
| Neil3 | topyli, prelink can be undone yes | 09:09 |
| Neil3 | if it causes problems | 09:09 |
| zenrox | but it shouldent | 09:09 |
| zenrox | tho | 09:09 |

| elf | linux-686: | 09:12 |
| elf | Depends: linux-restricted-modules-686 but it is not going to be installed | 09:12 |
| topyli | "openoffice", "quick". sometimes i dream of uttering those words in a single sentence | 09:12 |
| elf | yes why s openoffice slow? | 09:12 |
| zenrox | elf then do sudo apt-get install linux-686 linux-restricted-modules-686 | 09:13 |
| zenrox | lol @ topyli | 09:13 |
| Neil3 | zenrox, i believe linux-686 grabs those modules too | 09:13 |
| topyli | elf: i guess it's partly because it's multi-platform so the same code is forced to run on all systems | 09:13 |
| zenrox | Neil3, its not getting them | 09:13 |
| lordan | elf, openoffice wants to work on a variety of systems | 09:13 |
| Neil3 | hmm | 09:13 |
| Neil3 | my bad | 09:13 |
| topyli | elf: like java | 09:13 |
| Neil3 | also | 09:13 |
| zenrox | Neil3, that will force it to get it | 09:14 |

| topyli | yeah, they should just go for gtk :) | 09:14 |
| Teflon_tony | hello Ubuntu | 09:14 |
| Neil3 | that prelinks a lot of openoffice specific stuff | 09:14 |
| zenrox | Neil3, ooprelink dont work | 09:15 |
| zenrox | its not in my sys | 09:15 |
| lordan | topyli, life would be too good then | 09:15 |
| zenrox | hello Teflon_tony | 09:15 |
| Neil3 | sudo /usr/sbin/oooprelink -f | 09:15 |
| Neil3 | that will do it | 09:15 |
| Amaranth | there is a version of OpenOffice.org that uses GTK, iirc | 09:16 |
| zenrox | its not in my path thats why | 09:16 |
| Amaranth | Ximian makes it | 09:16 |
| topyli | lordan: not everybody would be happy then either :) | 09:16 |

| zenrox | Teflon_tony, yes | 09:17 |
| elf | its not working? \ | 09:17 |
| Teflon_tony | that sounds good | 09:17 |
| Neil3 | zenrox, did that command work for you? | 09:17 |
| Neil3 | with the -f switch? | 09:17 |
| Teflon_tony | I think I will start the download | 09:17 |
| zenrox | yes | 09:17 |
| lordan | the ximian version merely uses gtk as a "frontend" for uno if I'm not mistaken | 09:17 |

| topyli | Teflon_tony: it works too well out of the box. if you want to learn, get a more difficult distro ;) | 09:18 |
| zenrox | elf open snyaptic | 09:18 |
| zenrox | and get it that way | 09:18 |
| elf | ok | 09:18 |
| zenrox | search for linux-686 | 09:18 |
| elf | thats how i am doing it | 09:18 |
| zenrox | lol | 09:19 |
| topyli | elf: linux-image-686 | 09:19 |
| zenrox | elf just rember if one way dont work try another | 09:19 |
| elf | yay its working | 09:19 |
| Teflon_tony | <topyli which one then? | 09:19 |
| Amaranth | personally i think abiword is a lot better | 09:19 |
| elf | i only know how to use synaptic | 09:19 |
| lordan | Amaranth, couldn't agree more | 09:19 |
| zenrox | Amaranth, not for every thang | 09:19 |
| elf | well i gotta go now | 09:20 |
| zenrox | lator elf | 09:20 |
| elf | thatsnk for ALL your help chaps!!! | 09:20 |
| elf | cheers | 09:20 |
| zenrox | n/p | 09:20 |
| lordan | And I like gnumeric more than oocalc | 09:20 |
| zenrox | any time | 09:20 |
| Amaranth | zenrox: If someone ported oo.o's Word code to abiword it would be almost perfect | 09:20 |
| elf | whats that sudo to enable prelink?\ | 09:20 |
| zenrox | Amaranth, yes | 09:20 |
| Amaranth | But I use abiword most of the time and oo.o when abiword doesn't work for whatever reason. | 09:20 |
| topyli | Teflon_tony: i'm kidding. ubuntu is perfect. although is true you could learn more on slackware or something. if you can get slack to work you know quite a bit already :) | 09:20 |

| Teflon_tony | I have heard bad things about it | 09:22 |
| Spinaltapp | does anyone know if there's a way to play .mpeg files in Ubuntu, or am I just a n00b for asking? | 09:22 |

| Dreamer3 | zenrox: wow, about time | 09:34 |
| Spinaltapp | i'll probably just keep windows around for PS, plus my family won't want to switch to Linux because they're idiots, so I'll leave XP on there for them | 09:34 |
| === Dreamer3 thinks MS should releases Office for Linux | ||
| Dreamer3 | but that would free a lot of companies to move :) | 09:34 |
| Spinaltapp | OpenOffice is better anyway | 09:34 |
| Spinaltapp | heh | 09:34 |
| Dreamer3 | but WAY slower | 09:34 |
| Spinaltapp | I use it in windows | 09:35 |
| Spinaltapp | yeah | 09:35 |
| zenrox | Spinaltapp, but rember if thay used linux your pc wont get as much crap on it | 09:35 |
| Dreamer3 | word opens in like <1 second, and OO takes 5-10, what's up? :) | 09:35 |
| Spinaltapp | i freakin LOVE open source software though... | 09:35 |
| topyli | Spinaltapp: also if you have lots of windows games you like you'll want to keep windows around | 09:35 |
| Spinaltapp | Gaim kicks major ass, no spyware | 09:35 |
| Teflon_tony | MS will NEVER release Office for Linux | 09:35 |
| Teflon_tony | its a losing proposition for them | 09:35 |
| Dreamer3 | Teflon_tony: after windows loses dominance they might | 09:35 |
| Spinaltapp | actually i pretty much don't game at all, which is a big factor in my decision to switch | 09:35 |
| Teflon_tony | Then perhaps | 09:35 |
| Dreamer3 | Teflon_tony: of course by then it may be too late | 09:35 |
| topyli | Teflon_tony: yeah, windows would die | 09:35 |
| bascule | Dreamer3: cause like IE office is tied to the shell, hence the office exploits as well as the Interne Exploiter ones | 09:35 |
| Spinaltapp | i use Autocad for work and school, so i'll need the linux version of that | 09:36 |
| vjaz | Dreamer3, Doesn't MS Office use some background process which loads most of Office at system startup? | 09:36 |
| zenrox | topyli, a small fraction will install native in linux another %age will run with wine | 09:36 |
| bascule | sucky security but fast startup, take your pick | 09:36 |
| Dreamer3 | vjaz: even without that :) | 09:36 |
| johnnybezak | windows makes office for mac os x | 09:36 |
| Amaranth | Office is one of their main profit makers. If saw that Windows was going to die out they'd release Office for as many OSes as possible to keep people using it. | 09:36 |
| Dreamer3 | vjaz: i always turn off all the auto-office crap :) | 09:36 |
| Teflon_tony | Mac OSX doesn't threaten Windows | 09:36 |
| Teflon_tony | Linux does | 09:36 |

| Amaranth | Teflon_tony: In WinNT, Win2k, and WinXP the win32 API is a seperate layer over the kernel so I bet it'd be possible to port. | 09:39 |
| PoW | How do I take a screenshot of my desktop in KDE? | 09:39 |

| Amaranth | Imagine them selling it for $200 for Linux. :) | 09:39 |
| Teflon_tony | Of course its possible to port | 09:39 |
| Dreamer3 | zenrox: i don't want eye candy, i just want it to open better and make more sense in a few areas | 09:39 |

| zenrox | id like to see windows start with new code | 09:41 |
| zenrox | os tho | 09:41 |
| Teflon_tony | Apple is not compition because they are a hardware company, and their computers are locked in, people on the other hand can readily switch to Linux on the same hardware they run their buggy windows, one of the way they keep people who use X86 using windows is via office, if they give up having exclusive office rights on X86, they might as well release the source code and call it a night | 09:41 |
| zenrox | opensource | 09:41 |
| warty | bah sorry about that | 09:41 |
| mpq | my mouse doesn't work right | 09:41 |
| warty | anyway, would the Xpde desktop interface work with Ubuntu? | 09:41 |
| mpq | I'm on a laptop, and the on/off button for the touchpad doesn't work | 09:42 |
| zenrox | warty, technaly yes but i ant never played with it | 09:42 |
| mpq | the light goes on and off but the touchpad stays on | 09:42 |
| bascule | Teflon_tony: you underestimate MSs ability to turn a buck .. :) | 09:42 |
| Amaranth | zenrox: It doesn't need a complete rewrite. They just need to take the drivers back out of the kernel (in NT 3 they weren't in the kernel) and use something like Avalon instead of GDI (that's why Longhorn is there, a transition). | 09:42 |
| mpq | does anyone know how to fix it? | 09:42 |

| Amaranth | The NT kernel is actually really good. Also it sounds like some of the people at MS are disappointed that drivers are still running in ring 0 (kernel) in Longhorn. | 09:44 |
| bascule | Teflon_tony: don't open that one up!! :P | 09:44 |
| zenrox | ya | 09:44 |
| Teflon_tony | who knows maybe they will take the a hand from Apple, and build a Unix core based OS | 09:44 |
| warty_ | grrr | 09:44 |
| bascule | that was a blatant legal fee subsidy | 09:44 |
| Amaranth | SCO Unix is absolutely worthless. | 09:44 |
| zenrox | agreed | 09:44 |

| Amaranth | Teflon_tony: I don't see MS ever moving to something *nix based when they have a kernel written by some of the best people from DEC. :) | 09:46 |
| Slike | hello, how do I make an application shortcut (on my desktop) for a jar-file? | 09:47 |
| vjaz | lappy, There should be a disabled archive.ubuntu.com -entry there. | 09:47 |
| Slike | java is already in my path | 09:47 |
| vjaz | lappy, You need to enable that. | 09:47 |
| Amaranth | Maybe a more *nix like userland (longhorn is going to have this with a new shell). | 09:47 |
| Dreamer3 | yeah, Windows XP is very solid | 09:47 |
| lappy | vjaz, ok. hangon | 09:47 |
| Teflon_tony | lol | 09:47 |
| topyli | Slike: in the command line, write something like 'java -jar /path/to/jar-file' | 09:47 |
| Dreamer3 | it's IE/Outlook Express, spyware, registry corruption and other issues that plague windows | 09:47 |
| lappy | vjaz, are u referring to the one that says "universe"? | 09:48 |
| zenrox | Dreamer3, i agree | 09:48 |
| dud | the problem with windows xp is that its way too playmobile for the power users | 09:48 |
| zenrox | xp is nice once virus writers decide to target linux | 09:48 |
| Dreamer3 | dud: huh? | 09:48 |
| Slike | topyli: i know that....but i'd like to have it started with a simple double-click, is that possible? | 09:48 |
| Amaranth | Dreamer3: If it didn't have all the garbage (RPC, etc) and the drivers weren't in the kernel (almost a non-issue with certified drivers) WinXP would be the best OS out there for desktop users. | 09:48 |
| vjaz | lappy, yes | 09:48 |
| lappy | vjaz, so i hit the reload button right? | 09:48 |
| topyli | Slike: yes, right click the desktop and select 'Create Launcher' | 09:48 |
| Dreamer3 | Amaranth: i just like the freedom of linux | 09:49 |
| topyli | Slike: there's a command line | 09:49 |
| vjaz | lappy, after enabling the repository, yes | 09:49 |
| Dreamer3 | xp prolly runs better/fasted on this lappy | 09:49 |
| Amaranth | Slike: Make the shortcut run 'java -jar /path/to/file.jar' (without quotes). | 09:49 |
| vjaz | lappy, then you should be able to find kde | 09:49 |
| Neil3 | Dreamer3, i also think file organisation and management on windows isnt as solid as nix, like users only being able to write to their home dir and stuff | 09:49 |
| Slike | amaranth: then it says something like java not found | 09:49 |
| Neil3 | and apps being in one place, libraries in another etc | 09:49 |
| Amaranth | Dreamer3: Yeah, I love it too. That's why I use Ubuntu even though XP worked better for me and I knew how to lock it down properly. | 09:49 |
| zenrox | Neil3, i agree | 09:49 |
| Neil3 | very well organised and tidy in nix | 09:49 |
| Dreamer3 | Neil3: true, but windows can be locked down, just FYI | 09:49 |
| Neil3 | yeah | 09:50 |
| zenrox | linux's files system is nise and easy | 09:50 |
| zenrox | very logical | 09:50 |
| Neil3 | the registry is a real pain too sometimes | 09:50 |
| Neil3 | configuration files are definitely easier to work with | 09:50 |
| topyli | Slike: then use the full path to java, like '/usr/bin/java'. it might not read your variables right | 09:50 |
| Amaranth | Neil3: Too bad GNOME had to copy that. :P | 09:50 |
| Neil3 | heh | 09:50 |
| Dreamer3 | lol@ Amaranth | 09:50 |
| zenrox | i jsut like how linux handles ram | 09:50 |
| Neil3 | yeah | 09:50 |
| Amaranth | And they are trying to get everything to use it so their new admin tool will work properly. | 09:50 |
| zenrox | fill ram up before useing swap | 09:50 |
| zenrox | win= fill swap up then complain | 09:51 |
| Neil3 | and i dont have a million and one things running in the background phoning home or whatever | 09:51 |
| Amaranth | pfft, in windows i didn't need swap unless i was using photoshop | 09:51 |
| Dreamer3 | Neil3: that's also your choice :) | 09:51 |
| Amaranth | it was nice to be able to enable and disable swap as needed | 09:51 |
| Dreamer3 | Neil3: it's possible to keep windows boxes clean if you avoid IE :) | 09:51 |
| Neil3 | true | 09:51 |
| bascule | swapoff, swapon | 09:51 |
| Neil3 | but you have to work around it | 09:51 |
| === Amaranth disables most services in XP | ||
| Neil3 | with linux it just 'is' | 09:51 |
| bascule | do that on doze without it crashing | 09:51 |
| lappy | vjaz, i have a usb drive. when i plugged it in, it got mounted automatically. can i just unplug it or is there a "umount" way of doing it? | 09:51 |
| zenrox | Amaranth, i only have a 128meg swap file and only use 30mges of it after 2 days of constant uptime | 09:51 |
| Amaranth | Neil3: Only because someone did it for you (Ubuntu, SuSE, etc) | 09:51 |
| Neil3 | and most novice windows users wont know to tweak services etc | 09:51 |
| Neil3 | hehe | 09:52 |
| Neil3 | true | 09:52 |
| Dreamer3 | we have clients with very solid WIndows XP networks | 09:52 |
| Amaranth | So far nothing beats AD, either. | 09:52 |

| Dreamer3 | zenrox: ok | 09:53 |
| zenrox | hehehe | 09:53 |
| lappy | vjaz, ok thx | 09:53 |
| bascule | johnnybezak: why | 09:54 |
| johnnybezak | bascule: too many things need tweaking | 09:54 |
| Amaranth | bascule: Once the Linux Standard Base gets used by all the major distros people will just be able to download an RPM off a website (yeah, i know, RPM) and install it just like Windows. | 09:54 |
| zenrox | hardware is one of them | 09:54 |
| Amaranth | So it'll be even easier to use Linux. | 09:54 |
| johnnybezak | bascule: to get working properly, dont get me wrong I like tweaking stuff, windows is still more usable | 09:54 |
| Dreamer3 | Amaranth: well, libc versions still impact that | 09:54 |
| topyli | Amaranth: i don't want to install stuff like in windows :) | 09:54 |
| bascule | yes, support from the majior hw manufacturers is a big step that will be gradual | 09:54 |
| johnnybezak | Amaranth: I think a package manager is better than going to a website and installing things | 09:55 |
| zenrox | yep | 09:55 |
| bascule | johnnybezak: nah tweaks are only neede for some hardware | 09:55 |
| zenrox | just like windows | 09:55 |
| bascule | yup | 09:55 |
| Neil3 | package installing is so easy and fast | 09:55 |
| Amaranth | johnnybezak: Not for CustomApp 0.1 from SmallSoftwareCo that doesn't have it's proprietary software in any repositories. | 09:55 |
| bascule | linux is far more tweakable, but it isn't neccessary to do, given the right hardware | 09:56 |
| distvan | I haven't /dev/fd0 and I can't use the floppy. How do I create it? | 09:56 |
| Neil3 | in windows you have to click 'next' 'next' 'next' 'next' 'next' 'next' 'next' 'next' 'reboot' | 09:56 |
| johnnybezak | bascule: every time i install a distro i have to at least tweak something be it video/sound | 09:56 |
| johnnybezak | or whatever | 09:56 |
| zenrox | bascule, and not so hard on cpu resources with eyecand like windows is | 09:56 |
| johnnybezak | Amaranth: thats not a problem with package managemnet thats a problem with SmallSoftwareCo | 09:57 |
| Amaranth | Neil3: Linux doesn't have DLL Hell because package managers control overwriting libs, too. | 09:57 |
| bascule | johnnybezak: If I hand you a brnd new box and a XP disc, it will take more work than Ubuntu | 09:57 |

| johnnybezak | I read on the gnome site I think that gnome 3 will be the release of gnome that breaks backwards compatibility, but i'm probably just mistaken | 10:01 |
| Amaranth | Dreamer3: I pick it up from blogs. For GNOME 3 they are pushing to simplify dependencies by getting rid of unused APIs and simplifiying things so some aren't needed. Plus combining some of them. | 10:01 |

| Dreamer3 | though i think xfce is the cute red-head that goes unoticed by most guys | 10:04 |
| johnnybezak | i think kde is fine it just needs usability work (think amount of buttons in konqueror) | 10:04 |

| zenrox | nice | 10:05 |

| DeusY | i got widows xp installed and the mbr was overwriten | 11:12 |
| delltony | but really they need to add that functionality back to gnome the application:/// i will post my program after i test it and make sure it works fine but the thing is the person running it must install php-gtk and the php4-dev kit but anyway | 11:12 |
| bascule | and now grub won't go back, OK. What was the error this time? | 11:12 |
| DeusY | so now i am trying to get ubuntu back on track... i could reinstall it alltogether but i am afraid of loosing my updates | 11:12 |
| chris_ | where do I put scripts I want to run at startup? | 11:12 |
| DeusY | bascule: same error when running "setup (hd0)" in grub: Error 17: Cannot mount selected partition | 11:13 |
| bascule | e.g. Assumed that /dev/hda1 is the location of /boot partition <-- did you notice that ? | 11:13 |
| bascule | DeusY: ^ | 11:13 |
| delltony | chris_, go to preferences then sessions | 11:13 |
| bascule | hd(?,?) will need to be changed to reflect this, I dunno though I am a lilo user | 11:13 |
| acidmaxd | bascule: the strange thing is that i've found my shadow file in /home . nobody has access to this machine, only me | 11:13 |
| delltony | there is a thing there called startup programs | 11:13 |
| delltony | you can just add the command there | 11:14 |
| bascule | acidmaxd: and you didn't copy it there, only root shouold be ab;e to do this ... | 11:14 |
| chris_ | delltony, That's at gnome startup though isn't it? | 11:14 |
| DeusY | my ubuntu is installed on /dev/hda8 | 11:14 |
| delltony | yeah | 11:14 |
| delltony | other place i think it xsession or xintrc but not certain on that | 11:14 |
| DeusY | hda7 is the swap, and others are win | 11:14 |
| chris_ | delltony, I need for system startup. It's for the wireless lan card rfswitch. It need to be turned on before the networking stuff is run. | 11:14 |

| dud | weird combination of feelings... | 11:54 |
| membreya | ok then ... lol :P | 11:54 |
| membreya | well I compiled a set of quickcam drivers and made a quickcam.ko....I've then insmod'd this module which loads it to memory | 11:55 |
| membreya | however I add it to /etc/modules and it doesn't load at boot.. I do a modprobe and it says module not found..I have to go back to the compile directory | 11:55 |
| membreya | and insmod it each time :\ | 11:55 |
| membreya | thinking bout it Nermal ? :P | 11:59 |
| Nermal | umm.. | 12:00 |
| Nermal | well.. it would need to be in /lib/modules/<kernel version> no ? | 12:00 |
| Nermal | and then you'd have to add it to /etc/modules.conf | 12:01 |
| Nermal | and run depmod -a | 12:01 |
| Nermal | modules.conf is some black magic I've never fully understood | 12:01 |
| CarlK | how does modprobe know to look in /lib/modules/<kernel version> for anything? | 12:01 |
| membreya | so do i need to copy the quickcam.ko anywhere in particular? | 12:02 |
| CarlK | membreya - did you | 12:02 |
| CarlK | membreya - did you "make install" ? | 12:02 |
| === CarlK just woke up | ||
| membreya | CarlK: sure did do a make install | 12:02 |
| membreya | but it only made a copy of the .ko in the directory I was in | 12:02 |
| Nermal | CarlK, it just does | 12:03 |
| Nermal | that's where modules go | 12:03 |
| CarlK | heh | 12:03 |
| membreya | Nermal: /lib/modules/2.6.10-3-amd64-generic/kernel/drivers/usb/image would that be ok to copy the .ko file ? | 12:03 |
| Nermal | like I said.. black magic :| | 12:03 |
| Nermal | I think so | 12:03 |
| membreya | as long as it's somewhere ;) | 12:04 |
| Nermal | though maybe not under kernel | 12:04 |
| CarlK | im surprised there isn't a var like PATH | 12:04 |
| Nermal | as it's not part of the kernel | 12:04 |
| Nermal | /lib/modules/2.6.10-3-amd64-generic/misc or something | 12:04 |
| CarlK | i need to make breakfast | 12:04 |
| CarlK | ill be back later | 12:04 |
| membreya | Nermal: there's no misc directory...if I create one will it know to look in it ? | 12:04 |
| Nermal | I think so | 12:05 |
| membreya | one way to find out :P | 12:05 |
| membreya | so create the directory | 12:05 |
| Nermal | I really don't know too much about autoloading modules :| | 12:05 |
| membreya | copy the file | 12:05 |
| membreya | do a depmod -a | 12:05 |
| Nermal | then try a modprobe | 12:05 |
| membreya | hrm ...how do you unload a module ? | 12:06 |
| membreya | nevermind :) | 12:07 |
| membreya | just did a modprobe on the quickcam | 12:07 |
| membreya | and it worked :) | 12:07 |
| membreya | sweet :D | 12:07 |
| membreya | now I just have to get the video working lol! | 12:07 |
| membreya | it apparently outpouts to /dev/video1 | 12:07 |
| membreya | thanks for your help Nermal :) | 12:08 |
| membreya | it is all easy enough...once you know how :| | 12:09 |

| CarlK | Trigx300 - "code listing 4" is very close, only you need to change the root() lines | 01:06 |
| leveldoc | Benuw: Thompson SpeedTouch DSL Modem? | 01:06 |
| Benuw | yes | 01:06 |
| Nermal | lo elf :) | 01:06 |
| leveldoc | how do you connect to it? USB or Ethernet? | 01:06 |
| Benuw | usb | 01:06 |
| leveldoc | ok, wait a sec | 01:06 |
| eXhum3d | CarlK, what should i do ? | 01:07 |
| Nermal | Benuw, you'll need the correct firmware | 01:07 |
| CarlK | Trigx300 - and it is at /boot/grub/menu.lst | 01:07 |
| Nermal | to upload to it with modem_run | 01:07 |

| CarlK | eXhum3d - there may be a better way, but it won't hurt to figure out what driver to use - this page will help figure that out: https://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/DebuggingSoundProblems | 01:09 |
| Benuw | thx | 01:09 |
| CarlK | Trigx300 - code listing 4, root (hd0,0) | 01:09 |

| pdr | gxine | 01:15 |
| Amaranth | elf: Totem for most things, mplayer and gxine for the few things totem won't play | 01:15 |
| eXhum3d | CarlK, Nermal, any suggestions ? | 01:15 |
| elf | ok cool | 01:15 |
| Nermal | elf, for which media ? | 01:15 |
| elf | general | 01:15 |
| Nermal | eXhum3d, boot with pci=noacpi ? | 01:16 |
| elf | totem does not play everything as well as xmms | 01:16 |
| pdr | mplayer is also good (but evil too.. long story) | 01:16 |
| jcoiron | I would like to thanks Ubuntu community for the CDs I received... I was quite impressed by the quality of them (it's beeing distributed to friends and collegues, choosing carefully some personnes who _will_ give it a try :) ) | 01:16 |
| Nermal | beep-media-player ? | 01:16 |
| Amaranth | elf: Oh, there really isn't any all-in-one player. | 01:16 |
| Nermal | jcoiron, aye.. nice aren't they :) | 01:16 |
| elf | well im using VLC and its ok but its got its bugs | 01:16 |
| Amaranth | Totem comes closest since it can have playlists but generally you have a music player and a video player. | 01:16 |
| Nermal | mplayer will play just about anything with w32codecs installed | 01:16 |
| zeedo | sirukin: :) | 01:17 |
| CarlK | bah.. mplayer plays like all you ever read | 01:17 |
| eXhum3d | Nermal, what do you mean with the pci=noacpi ? how can i do that ? | 01:17 |
| elf | where do i get mplayer? | 01:17 |
| CarlK | eXhum3d - that page is about all I have to offer - the only reason I know anything about sound is becasue last week i dug aruond enough to get it working on my box | 01:18 |
| Elsidox | elf, mplayer is fugly | 01:18 |

| Elsidox | elf, are they .wma files? | 01:19 |
| elf | yeah i guess | 01:19 |
| Nermal | FOOL | 01:19 |
| Elsidox | lol | 01:19 |
| Nermal | for starters | 01:19 |
| Trigx300 | thanks | 01:19 |
| elf | lol | 01:19 |
| Nermal | use mplayer and w32codecs | 01:20 |
| elf | VLC plays them | 01:20 |
| Nermal | hmm | 01:20 |
| elf | but vlc has bugs | 01:20 |
| Elsidox | so does mplayer | 01:20 |
| Nermal | and windows media player doesn't ? :) | 01:20 |
| elf | lol good point | 01:20 |
| Nermal | I think I'd rather listen to the sound of a player refusing to play a wma file than the file itself | 01:20 |
| elf | and gxine...hows that? | 01:20 |
| Nermal | umm... ok I guess | 01:21 |
| Nermal | more of a video player | 01:21 |
| elf | ok | 01:21 |
| Nermal | xmms / beep and rhythmbox are the most popular gnome ones | 01:21 |
| elf | where do i get w32 codecs | 01:21 |
| elf | ok | 01:21 |
| elf | hows beep? | 01:21 |
| Nermal | umm.. its in apt but has a v next to it :| | 01:21 |
| Vjaz | xmms and beep aren't gnome players | 01:21 |
| Nermal | Vjaz, I know | 01:21 |
| Nermal | beep is a gtk2 version of xmms | 01:21 |
| Nermal | basically :| | 01:22 |
| Vjaz | yeah | 01:22 |
| elf | ok | 01:22 |
| Nermal | so you get antialiased fonts and all that jazz | 01:22 |
| Vjaz | what do they even use gtk for? the settings window? | 01:22 |
| Nermal | pardon the pun | 01:22 |

| Trigx300 | oh, ok thanks | 01:28 |
| Vjaz | elf: well, they're different libraries... they mostly serve the same purpose | 01:28 |

| krism | anybody know a 'japanese language tutor' program for linux? romaji at first, but kanji would be nice too | 01:28 |
| Vjaz | elf: xine supports stuff like DVD's better I think | 01:28 |
| elf | because totem comes as gstreamer or xine which is better? | 01:28 |
| Vjaz | elf: gstreamer is fine for open stuff at least | 01:28 |

| elf | so u recommend it? | 01:31 |
| Amaranth | No! | 01:31 |
| elf | why not? | 01:31 |
| Amaranth | elf: Just enable universe and install gstreamer-plugins. | 01:31 |
| Amaranth | After I did that I only had one thing that would play in xine and not in totem. | 01:32 |
| Vjaz | elf: not sure... I use gstreamer at the moment, but then again, I don't have it setup for playing any propietary stuff | 01:32 |
| elf | ok | 01:32 |
| Vjaz | Amaranth: will gstreamer-plugins enable support for stuff like WMV and QuickTime? Don't they need w32codecs or something? | 01:32 |
| Trigx300 | does anyone know what the window browser is called (not firefox) | 01:32 |
| Vjaz | Trigx300: the window browser? | 01:33 |

| Coily | firestarter is listing a connection to aol (after i closed gaim) that lsof isnt. is the connection really dead and it's just close_wait? | 02:44 |
| mg | Jerub: LVM does work for / but it's really difficult to recover if anything goes wrong. at least, that's my understanding of it. | 02:44 |
| Jerub | mg: can't until the end of the month. download quota. | 02:44 |
| mg | Jerub: :( | 02:44 |
| Jerub | mg: the installer said not to use LVM for / or /boot becuase the machine wouldn't boot | 02:45 |

Now I have a dual boot on this box, and I'd also like to keep my home dir alive. so I do so, set only my old root partition to format, and the format fails. the proper device entries dont exist. So I go ahead and mknod away, but now it just says no such device or address.. | 02:58 |
| Nermal | robertj^, ah | 02:58 |
| ian2 | any suggestions? | 02:58 |
| robertj^ | ian: don't | 02:59 |

| Coily | is there a quick way to kill all connections? | 03:40 |
| pugio | shut down the network interface? | 03:41 |
| pugio | ifconfig eth0 down | 03:41 |
| nayfnu | Tora: try hitting Ctrl+Alt+a function key to get a virtual terminal | 03:41 |
| pugio | (think that's it) | 03:41 |
| Coily | ill give it a shot | 03:41 |
| evarlast | Coily: but what is the STATUS of the connection? | 03:41 |
| Torakiky | nayfnu: ok, I'll try | 03:41 |
| evarlast | Coily: it would be normal for the status to be CLOSE_WAIT | 03:41 |

| JDigital | I've ssh'd into pyoko.org before from a bunch of other servers before, just by typing "ssh pyoko.org". But, I don't think it's a server-specific problem - currently, using ssh on my own box fails to connect to any server where I have an account, and I've tried all three. | 04:33 |

| JDigital | This is strange because only a few days ago I was able to log into them using PuTTY under Windows. | 04:34 |
| membreya | kroon: cool wallpaper :) | 04:34 |
| JDigital | and I can ftp into the servers just fine | 04:34 |

| membreya | I question the last channel you're in tho :P lol | 04:34 |
| Kwiat | membreya, ok and then? | 04:34 |
| kroon | membreya, haha, its not what it seems like 8) | 04:35 |
| membreya | and see what it has set as the gateway | 04:35 |
| Kwiat | ok thanks ill do so | 04:35 |
| membreya | let us know the primary network interface info | 04:35 |
| membreya | you will also want to check the /etc/resolv.conf | 04:35 |
| membreya | to check dns servers | 04:35 |
| membreya | but more important we want you to be able to ping the gateway | 04:35 |
| membreya | kroon: you might want to take your minimum size to at least 400 :) | 04:36 |
| kroon | membreya, yeah but thats the point, the "minimum size" really specifies the "maximum size" it seems | 04:36 |
| kroon | membreya, at least here it does | 04:36 |
| membreya | your min size is set to 96 | 04:37 |
| snowblink | JDigital: perhaps they are using ssh1? | 04:37 |
| Kwiat | membreya, ill try see you in about a quarter of an hour | 04:37 |
| kroon | membreya, yes, if I increase it, sure they will expand, but its not working as its supposed to be | 04:37 |
| JDigital | "ssh -1 pyoko.org" is no better | 04:38 |
| snowblink | JDigital: and you usually use passwords as opposed to keys? | 04:39 |
| JDigital | Yeah. | 04:39 |
| JDigital | what are keys | 04:39 |

| kroon | membreya, hehe yes very nice 8) Ok, will your total "window-list" width stay constant as you open more and more windows ? | 04:43 |
| kroon | membreya, Or will it automatically grow ? | 04:44 |
| membreya | hrm ..well as it opens more windows they add along the bottom...and gradually shrink | 04:44 |
| membreya | but it's the min size I was annoyed with | 04:44 |
| kroon | membreya, yeah, so instead of growing the total size, it shrinks each individual "window-item" so it can fit the newly ones ? | 04:45 |
| snowblink | JDigital: just another thought: DNS. | 04:45 |

| tritium | bretzel, you can. It'll uninstall ubuntu-desktop, which is of no real consequence. | 07:06 |

| encryptio | i need to learn to use these splits | 07:57 |
| thundrcleeze | is there a better general video player than Totem? I can't get totem to play anything. | 07:57 |
| encryptio | thundrcleeze: try xine or vlc | 07:57 |
| zenrox | thundrcleeze, gxine | 07:57 |
| mjr | totem works in practice better with the xine backend (totem-xine) | 07:57 |

| thundrcleeze | mjr, when I try to apt-get it, it wants to remove ubuntu-desktop | 07:58 |
| bretzel | xine rocks on my system - I was just crying about totem .... xine plays DVD movies so well | 07:58 |
| bretzel | thundr..: go-ahead! | 07:59 |
| tritium | bretzel, you probably have totem-gstreamer rather than totem-xine installed | 07:59 |

| bretzel | but I have another prob: I can't get sound-juicer to let me choose audio output codec: wave or ogg or mp3 etc ...) | 08:01 |
| bretzel | .. I mean when I want to rip a music cd | 08:02 |
| bretzel | it creates only .flac file... | 08:03 |

| tritium | interesting | 08:05 |
| Goshawk | how to add an mp3 file on graveman ? it doens't recognise my mp3 (need a lib?) | 08:05 |
| datadevil | is it possible to update ubuntu to unstable with apt | 08:06 |
| bretzel | then, can I change or create a profile for sound-juicer ? | 08:06 |
| bretzel | that's it - went to the help and I have no "ouput format" in the prefs ... strange! | 08:07 |
| GammaRay | datadevil: yes edit /etc/apt/sources.lst. change warty to hoary | 08:07 |
| datadevil | ok..thanks | 08:08 |

| CarlK | dstevens - what I have hear of , but also hear it was a bad idea, is to have the clients send a host name or somehing as part of the request, and the server's need to only respond to the right clients | 10:32 |
| CarlK | but then each client needs to have a static setting, and that makes the whole thing pointles | 10:33 |
