| Klaas | Guybrush|Numb: Do you have a working X already? | 12:02 |
| topyli | Pyrus: good luck! | 12:02 |
| Evaso | sirrus: well 2.6.10 has packet cd writing support | 12:03 |
| Guybrush|Numb | Klaas: perfecly working, yes, but "apt-get dist-upgrade" keeps back x-window-system-core and does not get "xorg" | 12:03 |
| SiRrUs | Evaso ok | 12:03 |
| Klaas | try apt-cache show x-window-system-core | 12:03 |
| Evaso | sirrus: but what abount mounting it as a writible media? | 12:03 |
| Klaas | I believe xorg is a dependancy of it, so it should install xorg. | 12:03 |
| SiRrUs | but like i said hoary has the 2.6.10 kernel series not the other way around | 12:03 |
| Guybrush|Numb | bloc76: try apt-get reinstall gdm | 12:04 |

| Evaso | sirrus: i had debian sid. in debian u must to install the udftools and to had the 2.6.10 kernel but u need to mount /dev/pkcdvd/0 or /dev/pkcdvd/1 device | 12:05 |
| topyli | Guybrush|Numb: the upgrade may not be perfect. you may have to dist-upgrade many times until all the breakage is revealed :) | 12:05 |
| topyli | and -f install a few | 12:05 |
| topyli | times | 12:05 |
| Evaso | sirrus: not /dev/hdd /dev/hdc cdrw drive | 12:05 |

| Evaso | sirrus: so upstream (debian) or ubuntu has this problem solved | 12:06 |
| SiRrUs | Evaso if you install hpary you dont need to worry about that | 12:06 |
| Evaso | sirrus: why? | 12:06 |
| topyli | Guybrush|Numb: or be a man and run dselect :O | 12:06 |
| SiRrUs | hoary even | 12:06 |
| SiRrUs | no idea | 12:07 |
| Guybrush|Numb | Klaas: apt-cache reveals 2 packages for x-wind..... one from xfree and one from xorg | 12:07 |
| Klaas | Otopyli: Oh my god... please no not dselect... | 12:07 |
| Guybrush|Numb | lol@topyli, i love debian/ubuntu exactly because it keeps the ugly stuff away :) | 12:07 |
| SiRrUs | all i know is almost everything works with hoary from the start and everything worked with warty at the start | 12:07 |
| topyli | Guybrush|Numb: i wish you don't have to uninstall xfree before installing xorg. that would be a chore | 12:07 |
| Evaso | sirrus: u had packet writing available? had u tried to put in you cd burner an udf formatted cd? are u able to writing on it as a floppy or hardisk? | 12:07 |
| Klaas | topyli: unless you jst dit a dpkg --set-selections | 12:07 |
| === Guybrush|Numb agrees | ||
| SiRrUs | topyli why not use synaptic and install xorg from there | 12:08 |
| topyli | Klaas: good point! | 12:08 |
| Guybrush|Numb | i'll go with an upgrade, wish me good luck | 12:08 |
| SiRrUs | Evaso like i said everything works | 12:08 |
| Klaas | Guybrush: My apt-cache doesn't show an xfree, did you dist-upgrade, removing all warty sources? | 12:08 |
| topyli | SiRrUs: dunno, i'm not the sportsman here, i run warty like a good boy :) | 12:09 |
| Guybrush|Numb | not yet, i'm waiting to start | 12:09 |
| Evaso | sirrus: i think that hoary doesn't mount packet wrting with available writing support | 12:09 |
| SiRrUs | ah ok | 12:09 |
| Guybrush|Numb | i just did an "apt-get -d dist-upgrade" | 12:09 |
| Klaas | Guybrush: Sorry, forgot that that's the whole point. | 12:09 |
| Guybrush|Numb | to download the required stuff | 12:09 |
| SiRrUs | Evaso suit yourself | 12:09 |
| Guybrush|Numb | i'll go for the trust way, break it first and worry later | 12:09 |
| Guybrush|Numb | so let's dist-upgrade :) | 12:10 |
| topyli | i'm already asleep, i might as well go to bed | 12:10 |
| morchuboo | Guybrush|Numb: always the best way :) | 12:10 |

| bloc76 | i got a mail about adding paths to /etc/X11/fs/config but that file doesn't exist | 12:11 |
| morchuboo | Guybrush|Numb: many people have reported easier more smooth is to install fresh from an array CD | 12:11 |
| Guybrush|Numb | morchuboo: i'll die before wiping out my perfect warty system :) | 12:12 |
| Klaas | bloc76: Is it about font paths? | 12:12 |
| morchuboo | Guybrush|Numb: but hey - I upgraded too so what am i on about | 12:12 |

| karim | what is needed to make alsa work ? | 12:12 |
| karim | should the sound module safe load ? | 12:12 |

| karim | self/safe | 12:12 |
| Klaas | bloc76 | 12:12 |
| bloc76 | Klaas, i did already | 12:12 |

| Pluk | but the upperlimit can be set | 12:59 |
| Kronae | well, it was worth trying. | 12:59 |
| mlakam | k je veu mont | 12:59 |
| morchuboo | Hikaru79: u sure its /media/sda1 - sda1 is a device node normally mounted to a directory such as one in media. unless you mounted it yourself and created that directory.. | 12:59 |
| Pluk | so you could write something if temp > 60 then upper limit = 600 | 12:59 |
| Kronae | any other suggestions Venson?! | 12:59 |
| lapoman | upper limit of what? Pluk? I mean cpu or T? | 12:59 |
| Pluk | cpu | 12:59 |
| Venson | Kronae: that should fix it...hmm. i have nothing else to suggest. try looking in linux-on-laptops.com | 01:00 |

| Kronae | ok | 01:00 |
| Venson | Kronae: just so you know, some laptops don't work with specific distros, just because of the way their stock kernels are compiled. use what works | 01:00 |
| lapoman | Its kind of a miss that ubutu relies on powernowd, cpufreq and cpuspeed are more features. | 01:01 |

| mlakam | i need some HELP | 01:14 |
| mlakam | can not my microsucks partitions | 01:15 |
| thynis | ok I know this is gonna be a laughed at question lol.. but I must ask | 01:15 |
| mlakam | aaaaaaaaaah | 01:15 |
| hawke_ | thynis: haha | 01:15 |
| thynis | debian uses apt-get (i think) what does ubuntu use (if any) | 01:15 |
| ermo | is there a 'best current practice' for installing java1.5 on ubuntu? In the ubuntu support pages one approach is used, but in the wiki pages, a different solution is recommended? | 01:15 |
| mlakam | where are my files ? | 01:15 |
| thynis | begin laughter now | 01:15 |
| error_29 | mjr, virtual machine, ah hah That's what I need to know. Can I do that with windows, just well enough to get some decent screenshots? | 01:15 |
| hawke_ | thynis: haha. | 01:15 |
| thynis | lol | 01:16 |
| hawke_ | thynis: apt-get | 01:16 |
| thynis | ok that's what I though | 01:16 |
| error_29 | I mean, windows virtual machine on linux | 01:16 |
| thynis | thought | 01:16 |
| mjr | now, to get what thynis thought (same as wine but for macos x) you'd need to finish up gnustep, slap on a binary loader and voila ;) | 01:16 |
| thynis | hmmmm... maybe that will solve my problem | 01:16 |
| error_29 | pardon my ignorance, mjr, but what is gnustep? | 01:16 |
| mjr | error_29, you mean to run windows in a VM? Check out qemu. | 01:16 |
| viper12 | mlakam: this is the best way to get the windows partitions up and running: | 01:17 |
| viper12 | http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions/view?searchterm=mount | 01:17 |
| thynis | is that possible? | 01:17 |
| thynis | lol | 01:17 |
| error_29 | qemu, got it mjr. Thanks. | 01:17 |
| mjr | error_29, oh, gnustep is a free implementation of the OpenSTEP APIs, upon which MacOS X builds too | 01:17 |
| error_29 | I need to show some folks who don't know a mouse from a rodent basic windows screens and menus for a training | 01:18 |
| mjr | they don't actually have binary emulation on the horizon, though, I was just speculating :) | 01:18 |
| thynis | so I can't run maconlinux without gnustep | 01:18 |
| mjr | thynis, umm, no, maconlinux and gnustep have approximately nothing to do with each other | 01:18 |

| thynis | ohhh... good I was scared... didn't know that wasn't for me... my fault | 01:19 |
| ompaul | ermo, afterstep being one of them | 01:19 |

| ompaul | error_29, afterstep being one of them | 01:19 |
| mjr | gnustep is currently something that you can compile OpenSTEP applications against, if the features that they use are implemented | 01:19 |

| Pluk | that the recommended way to install on firefox | 01:28 |
| ompaul | ermo, iirc it was a .gz or some such | 01:28 |
| marcin_ant | I got ppp connection (for gprs modem) created chat scripts and ppp_on_boot script in /etc/ppp | 01:28 |

| ompaul | marcin_ant, have you considered booting in single user mode and editing that file again to hash out the values in there? | 01:29 |
| ermo | Hmm. Maybe mjr's "/opt/" solution deserves honorable mention *somewhere* in the ubuntu support/documentation/wiki as the recommended way of installing Sun Java? | 01:30 |
| marcin_ant | ompaul: what values? | 01:30 |
| ompaul | marcin_ant, the ones for your gprs modem | 01:30 |
| marcin_ant | ompaul: sure but why - they seems correct | 01:31 |
| marcin_ant | ompaul: I can boot when I unplug modem (usb) | 01:31 |
| Pluk | ermo, http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/AddingJavaSupport | 01:31 |
| marcin_ant | ompaul: then ppp connection on boot fails and I can login | 01:31 |
| ompaul | marcin_ant, so it is really a usb issue then? | 01:31 |
| marcin_ant | ompaul: but then when I plug modem and pppd call gprs then it works | 01:31 |
| marcin_ant | ompaul: nope | 01:32 |
| ermo | Pluk, seems I searched in the wrong place (wiki, Java15). Thanks for the pointer! | 01:32 |
| marcin_ant | ompaul: it works and on boot there is connection established | 01:32 |
| Pluk | yw | 01:32 |
| ompaul | marcin_ant, maybe establishing the link a little later in the boot process would be a better idea? | 01:32 |
| marcin_ant | ompaul: the problem is than init procedure just stop on this connection | 01:32 |

| marcin_ant | ompaul: it's just from package | 01:33 |

| ermo | stodge, well, copy it all to your new ubuntu home with cp -a, then chown your files | 02:21 |
| tuxdisciple | stodge: Ownership can be changed with chown... what are the priv problems? | 02:21 |
| geppy | stodge: Just move it to /home/stodge, then 'cd /home/stodge && sudo chown stodge -R ./'; that should work. | 02:21 |
| stodge | Woah - multi responses. Thanks! | 02:22 |
| ermo | stodge, do you need to preserve modification times for your files? | 02:22 |
| stodge | ermo I don't think so - thinks hard on that one | 02:23 |
| stodge | I mounted the partition under /mnt/linux with options of user,rw,noauto, but it's owned by root. Just clicked that it's the root from the old Linux I was using - doh! | 02:23 |
| ermo | stodge, geppy suggests moving your files to /home/stodge. That implies that you _are_ in fact 'stodge' | 02:24 |
| ermo | (pretty obvious I suppose) | 02:24 |
| stodge | Yes - the username is mike, but I realised that I would need to use that one :) | 02:24 |
| ermo | stodge, so, your new home is on a local disk and the path is supposed to be /home/mike ? | 02:24 |

| tuxdisciple | ermo: I'd imagine so... lemme check | 02:30 |
| ermo | stodge, so you're good to go? | 02:31 |
| tuxdisciple | ermo: It's a general mount option, so it should work on any filesystem... | 02:31 |
| ermo | tuxdisciple, ack | 02:31 |
| stodge | I think so ermo - edited fstab to add /home and time for a reboot! Fingers crossed | 02:32 |

| === bassist is now known as bassism | ||
| tuxdisciple | geppy: Yeah | 02:50 |

| nictuku | i miss that a lot in ubuntu | 02:50 |
| geppy | tuxdisciple: Yeah, makes sense. | 02:51 |
| tuxdisciple | geppy: RHEL is pretty darn good, but damn expensive... that's why I track CentOS for more production oriented servers | 02:51 |

| ermo | nictuku, I would think that you could send a polite e-mail to canonical with your inquiry. Afaik, #ubuntu doesn't represent canonical, it's just a friendly place for users (and occasionally devs as well) to talk about ubuntu | 02:57 |
| geppy | tuxdisciple: Not that I like YUM. I mean, really, even when I ran RH, I used apt. | 02:57 |
| Count_Down | Xappe: Yeah, but it's not happening for me. | 02:57 |
| tuxdisciple | geppy: Its good for servers you want to keep fairly stable in terms of updating, and is easier to hand over than a debian distro to 'nix newbies | 02:57 |
| geppy | tuxdisciple: But RedHat has apt, is all that I'm saying. | 02:58 |
| === tuxdisciple nods | ||
| geppy | tuxdisciple: up2date has an optional apt backend | 02:58 |
| tuxdisciple | geppy: I bet you could use apt for it, yum is just simple since its really only security updates once the server is configured | 02:58 |

| geppy | jdub: If a group of people got together to work with getting JACK to "just work" on Ubuntu, would inclusion be considered? | 03:48 |
| TheMuso | geppy: I know. The thing is that it forces all apps to work at particular sample rates, which then means that if they need to resample, there is more work to do. Then there is also the problem of badly coded jack clients. | 03:48 |
| jdub | geppy: jack alone just works already | 03:48 |
| TheMuso | geppy: I am on the jackit-devel list and this sort of thing has been raised before. | 03:48 |

| === apachehelicopter is now known as RAH66-Apache | ||
| Amaranth | ah, low latency | 03:53 |
| jdub | geppy: then you have to do the hardware integration for both | 03:53 |
| inc | i have /usr/lib/libdns.so.16.0.0 should I make a symlink | 03:54 |
| jdub | geppy: which just gets ridiculous | 03:54 |
| pauldaoust | TheMuso: rocking. do you use a special distro like AGNULA, or do you just install some generic distro and patch it for low latency? | 03:54 |
| Amaranth | that's the only term i've heard used to describe jack | 03:54 |
| geppy | jdub: polypaudio can be set to run one-per-system, and it need only know about JACK, not the hardware | 03:54 |
| jdub | geppy: and the jack developers are totally not interested in it | 03:54 |
| error_29 | pauldaoust, only when playing back something just recorded | 03:54 |
| pauldaoust | error_29: cuuuuurious | 03:54 |
| error_29 | I'm set on 32 bit float, no dither. | 03:54 |
| pauldaoust | so you don't see any clipping in the waveform itself? | 03:54 |

| geppy | jdub: There are lots of developers who would love to get involved in the project, though. | 03:54 |
| TheMuso | pauldaoust: I use Slackware for my audio stuff, because that is what I used before Ubuntu. Since I also maintain a package site of Slackware packages for audio, I think my work is a waste if I don't use it myself. | 03:54 |

| pauldaoust | TheMuso: I think I'll end up using a Debian distro... I came to Ubuntu from Gentoo, so I feel most comfortable when I can just say 'emerge jackit' or 'apt-get jackit' and watch it install itself :) | 03:55 |

| geppy | jdub: Oh, I'm not implying that you (or anyone else on the Ubuntu team) would need to make a separate distro, I'm simply suggesting that I do it. I mean, there are a few things that would need to be changed to be able to use JACK well, including the realtime-lsm, that don't exist in the Ubuntu repositories | 03:57 |

| pauldaoust | TheMuso: I was very surprised by the absence of certain rather important programs in the AGNULA distro... things like Ardour and MusE and Rosegarden and cetera. | 03:58 |
| roamm | can anyone tell me how 2 set my bloody root password | 03:58 |
| inc | thoreauputic i made this symlink libdns.so.16 -> libd ns.so.16.0.0 and now get a segmentation fault | 03:58 |
| roamm | the install didnt prompt me to set root passwd | 03:58 |
| roamm | :() | 03:58 |
| pauldaoust | TheMuso: although I guess I can just add a Debian repository to sources.list and install them, eh? | 03:58 |
| TheMuso | pauldaoust: Well the latest one I tried seemed to have Ardour at least. | 03:58 |
| jdub | TheMuso: given that you'd have to have another process managing the jack connection, you could configure jack optimally for game/pro-audio use | 03:58 |
| TheMuso | pauldaoust: I guess you could. | 03:58 |
| pauldaoust | TheMuso: ah, maybe they just don't list it on their website. | 03:58 |
| jdub | roamm: www.ubuntu.com/wiki/RootSudo | 03:58 |
| thoreauputic | inc: nasty :( | 03:58 |
| geppy | jdub: I'm not talking about a completely different distro, though, simply an alternate Ubuntu ISO that I could give out to multimedia-oriented friends | 03:58 |
| jdub | roamm: the root account is disabled by default in ubuntu | 03:58 |
| TheMuso | jdub: True. | 03:58 |
| jdub | geppy: sure. but that could be based on work done directly in ubuntu to make jack integrate well. | 03:59 |
| TheMuso | geppy: There are many other multimedia based distros out there already. Agnulla, etc. | 03:59 |
| RAH66-Apache | i'm gonna make the switch to Mandrake | 03:59 |

| wasabi | linuxboy, I did say VPN, right? | 04:00 |
| pauldaoust | wasabi: good question... unfortunately I can't help ya, because I havne't had to do that before | 04:01 |
| RAH66-Apache | is it user friendly | 04:01 |
| TheMuso | geppy: I personally wouldn't use something like that, as I like to have something optimally configured for a single use. In this case, audio work, and for this I have Slackware with my own packages. | 04:01 |
| pauldaoust | RAH66-Apache: I think Ubuntu blows the doors off Mandrake for user-friendliness | 04:01 |

| SiRrUs | I think jdub said Ubuntu is very new, it will improve as it grows | 04:27 |
| Wilcox | I hear ya... | 04:27 |
| ms988 | paul: yeah, "Ready - 0 Jobs" | 04:27 |
| SiRrUs | Wilcox I am great but I will get better | 04:27 |
| Wilcox | When? | 04:28 |
| pauldaoust | with the Hoary release ^_^ | 04:28 |
| Wilcox | ^_^ | 04:28 |
| SiRrUs | about 30 seconds :) | 04:28 |
| pauldaoust | ms988: hm, what to do now... if there were any pages in queue, they probably got deleted when you removed the printer. | 04:28 |

| pauldaoust | ms988: once the printer is installed, right-click, select 'Properties', and then go test page... | 04:29 |
| Wilcox | I bought it and it seems pretty good | 04:29 |
| pauldaoust | ms988: (just for something simple to print out) | 04:29 |
| thoreauputic | ms988: I just saw on linuxprinting.org someone had success with the z600 driver if that's any use to you | 04:29 |
| ms988 | yeah | 04:29 |
| BrianAnthony | is it okay to down-grade a kernel version? | 04:29 |
| pauldaoust | ms988: I'm just curious about whether the pages are in queue but just can't get to the printer. | 04:29 |
| Wilcox | BrianAnthiny: Sure it is. | 04:29 |
| Wilcox | Why do you want to though? | 04:30 |
| ms988 | I clicked test page, said it sent it to the printer, but it still says 0 jobs in the printers window | 04:30 |
| BrianAnthony | I can't get my ATI drivers to work with 2.6.10 right | 04:30 |
| SiRrUs | ms988 strange question but is your printer connected to another PC? | 04:30 |
| pauldaoust | ms988: and it says 'Ready'? | 04:30 |
| ms988 | No, it's local via usb | 04:30 |
| ms988 | yes | 04:30 |
| Wilcox | Mine would not work either. | 04:30 |
| Wilcox | I am not sure why though.. | 04:30 |
| BrianAnthony | me either. | 04:31 |
| pauldaoust | ms988: weird. mebbe try printing something from Evolution or some other GNOME proggy | 04:31 |
| BrianAnthony | it wouldn't install the kernel module right | 04:31 |
| ms988 | hm ok | 04:31 |
| BrianAnthony | so there's no direct 3d rendering | 04:31 |
| BrianAnthony | so I want it to work again | 04:31 |
| Wilcox | It would not give me 3D at all. | 04:31 |
| BrianAnthony | so I'm going to downgrade my kernel | 04:31 |
| Wilcox | I got it to install OK | 04:31 |
| BrianAnthony | yeah | 04:31 |
| BrianAnthony | it installed alright | 04:31 |
| BrianAnthony | no errors | 04:31 |
| BrianAnthony | but no 3d | 04:31 |
| Wilcox | Yea there should not be any real harm in doing that. | 04:31 |

| mebaran151 | fr500, I know | 05:13 |
| BrianAnthony | mebaran151: how does a compiler compare to an programming language? | 05:13 |
| fr500 | mono is just an open source implementation of an ecma standard whose premise is the ability to code in any languaje and produce the same executable | 05:14 |

| mebaran151 | ok | 05:14 |
| Amaranth | mebaran151: basically it's supposed to be like java | 05:14 |

| crbvegas | and im extremeley confused | 07:11 |
| thoreauputic | crbvegas: what's the confusion about? | 07:12 |
| crbvegas | well, i don't know how to connect it to my windows network | 07:12 |
| crbvegas | my house has 3 other computers running xp | 07:12 |
| thoreauputic | connect as in share? | 07:13 |
| crbvegas | we don't have a server, but | 07:13 |
| crbvegas | yeah | 07:13 |

| crbvegas | nah | 07:14 |
| YankDownUnder | crbvegas: You might want to make sure you have SWAT installed as well - and it's really easy to use Webmin as a front-end for configuring all the bits of Samba | 07:14 |
| crbvegas | i serioiusly just installed this like 10minutes ago | 07:14 |
| crbvegas | Swat you say, | 07:15 |
| crbvegas | going to look at that now | 07:15 |

| === tritium [~tritium@12-202-90-180.client.insightBB.com] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| thoreauputic | aminal: I seem to recall you can run sudo dpkg-reconfigure -plow xserver-xfree86 and say "no" to the framebuffer question (that's from a dpkg factoid in #debian and I may have it wrong) | 08:21 |
| monoxide | i dont use the -plow, but yea thats worked for me | 08:22 |
| thoreauputic | monoxide: the kernel is only upgraded with a dist-upgrade - apt-get upgrade should leave it alone | 08:22 |
| monoxide | i usually use dist-upgrade... :P | 08:23 |
| thoreauputic | monoxide: dist-upgrade seems to include the kernel in ubuntu | 08:23 |
| thoreauputic | in debian I don't think it does | 08:23 |
| thoreauputic | in fact I'm pretty sure in debian you have to specify any new kernels you install | 08:24 |
| monoxide | yes, but there are some interesting package setups there.... linux-386 will update to the latest 386 kernel. | 08:24 |
| thoreauputic | yes | 08:25 |
| monoxide | what if you removed linux-386 but not the actual kernel package ( linux-image-x.x.x-386 )? | 08:25 |
| thoreauputic | I assume if you've installed a 686 kernel the update will be a 686 kernel (haven't tried it) | 08:25 |
| BiteMeBill | thoreauputic: whats the modules.conf in /etc/? wouldn't that be the modconf? | 08:26 |
| monoxide | and linux-k7 will update the k7 kernel etc | 08:26 |

| thoreauputic | justino: it's actually better to change /etc/fstab so a normal user can mount stuff | 10:27 |
| prego | spinifex, in my Hoary now tries ext2 prior to ext3, so if you have an ext3 filesystem you have to pass the ext3 type as an option otherwise it is mounted as ext2 :-( | 10:27 |

| tuxJr_14 | hi | 10:54 |
| monoxide | i downloaded the updates to ESD and still nothing is working | 10:54 |
| monoxide | maybe its the config for something somewhere? | 10:54 |
| spinifex | er, I said that ambiguously. Anyway, the drive he wants to mount is external | 10:54 |
| Pluk | in vmware easiest way os through networking | 10:55 |

| dtygel | hi friends. I have a small doubt regarding permissions... | 02:02 |
| ubernoob | dtygel: whats your doubt? | 02:03 |
| dtygel | I want to automatically mount a disk (/dev/hda4) on boot, which is 777 for all users in the group "fbes". Well, so I put the following line in fstab: "/dev/hda4 /frutos vfat iocharset=utf8,auto,uid=dtygel,gid=fbes,users,rw 0 0". | 02:03 |
| dtygel | But when I log in as user fbes, I cannot access the disk. It says it's 744 (read-only for the group!). | 02:04 |

| ubernoob | dtygel: btw you might want to check your umask. type "umask" to see default permission of new files. Then set "umask 077" if you don't want others to access your new files. Or "umask 007" if you want your group to have access. | 02:39 |
| dtygel | ubernoob, It didn't work. "fbes" is in the adm group, but cannot sudo | 02:39 |
| ubernoob | hmm... hold on | 02:39 |
| dtygel | ubernoob: I've put "007": users and group can access. :) | 02:40 |
| dtygel | When I try to sudo it says the following: "fbes is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported." | 02:40 |
| dtygel | So I think we must find a "sudoers file"... | 02:40 |

| zeedo | Coily: in linux the programs dont install the same way | 04:28 |
| zeedo | they put their files in a few different places | 04:28 |
| Coily | so lets say im looking for the config file | 04:28 |
| zeedo | yeh what elcuco said : | 04:28 |
| === smick [~smick@216-63-0-124.walsworth.com] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| zeedo | that will be in your home directory or in /etc/ | 04:28 |
| smick | Hi everyone | 04:28 |
| elcuco | the main app is in /usr/bin, the libraries in /usr/lib, config in /etc, other data in /usr/share/{appname} | 04:28 |
| Coily | thanks | 04:29 |
| === Flik [~flik@d207-6-196-246.bchsia.telus.net] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| zeedo | Coily: system wide configs go in /etc/ personal config usually go in your home dir in a folder starting with a ., usually .programname | 04:29 |
| elcuco | Coily, just type the app name in the "ctrl+f2" window and you are done | 04:29 |
| Coily | yessir | 04:29 |
| smick | I'm wondering why my liveCD has a user name and password, and I can't find what it might be. really strange. | 04:29 |
| === elcuco wonders if its rude to ask his question again | ||
| Xappe | smick, have you tried ubuntu:ubuntu? | 04:30 |
| elcuco | is is possoble to remove gnome from unbuntu? or install it without gnome support to begin with? | 04:30 |

| jgl | hallo, if i have got a disk about 60 GB, how many partitions is optimal for swap? | 04:35 |
| smick | anyone know if there are any linux distros with scribus and rosegarden already installed together? | 04:36 |
| apokryphos | jgl: SWAP should depend on your RAM. You should have double swap compared to ram | 04:36 |
| jgl | i have got 512 MB ram | 04:36 |
| SiRrUs | smick you know you can both from synaptic? | 04:37 |
| jgl | i is better more than 1GB? | 04:37 |

| apokryphos | jgl: Yeah, go for a Gig | 04:38 |

| smckay | Same for package linux-image-k7, it shows installed version of 2.6.10-5 but only 2.6.10-4 is installed | 04:39 |

| r0bnyc | apokryphos, so ubuntu now supports kde? | 06:17 |

| apokryphos | r0bnyc: It sure does. There's a kubuntu team. You can get kde from the Universe repo. | 06:17 |
| dr_willis | r0bnyc, i alwyas "apt-get install kde" anyway :P | 06:17 |

| dasenjo | Hi I'm trying to use jigit to download hoary and got: Unable to find a file to match dists/hoary/main/daily-installer-i386/20041227ubuntu15.0.20050224/doc/manual/en/apa.html | 07:38 |
| dasenjo | How can I solve it ? | 07:38 |
| apokryphos | XposerX: Once you're in, you might want to reconfigure X. dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86 | 07:39 |
| puterfixer | XposerX, I modified my /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 file with nano, to match the horizontal and vertical maximum frequencies as given in my monitor's manual, then made a list of all supported resolutions that I wanted to use (first one being the default) | 07:39 |
| === IorGie [~Bert@asgard.adsl.utwente.nl] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| apokryphos | They'll both do the same thing; you might find the former easier, since it guides you through what to do, though. | 07:40 |
| XposerX | yah, i'll do the former | 07:41 |
| XposerX | i was just hoping ubuntu had a better tool for this | 07:41 |
| apokryphos | dpkg reconfigure is just fine. What's bad about it? | 07:41 |
| IorGie | Someone over here got LVM working on linux? | 07:41 |
| puterfixer | to me it was easier to just plug those values in the text file than go through the reconfigure | 07:41 |
| XposerX | it's one of the reason i switched from being a debian testing and sid user to ubuntu | 07:41 |
| XposerX | well, the monitor i'm buying is an LCD as i'm getting rid of my CRT ...anything i should be aware of ? | 07:42 |
| apokryphos | Not really (as far as I know), apart from being careful when altering refresh rates, if you do. | 07:43 |
| === larsrohdin [~larsrohdi@213.134.113.127] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| puterfixer | use the recommended resolution, that will give the sharpest image. | 07:43 |
| puterfixer | other resolutions are resampled to the LCD's physical resolution | 07:43 |
| larsrohdin | when i made the hdd to ext3, a folder named lost+found was created on it... do i need to save that or can i delete it? | 07:44 |
| puterfixer | and then, you may want to fiddle with font settings until you get the appearance you want regarding sharpness | 07:44 |
| JDigital | My university spent 14 million on a new library wing with 300 computers with LCD screens, but when it's sunny you can't see them for screenglare. They're all set to 800*600 despite them being 1024*768 physically | 07:44 |

| apokryphos | and installed the codecs? The ones from the article? | 08:38 |
| Coily | er repositories, but theres dependencies which i either: havent got the correct version of or havent got at all | 08:38 |

| Coily | like i said i believe ive added the correct repositories | 08:39 |
| apokryphos | but have you installed the correct codecs? | 08:39 |
| apokryphos | I'm close to completely certain that there's no dependency problems with the instructions there | 08:39 |
| CarlK | calamari - transcode should work for just audio | 08:40 |
| Coily | ill try it out... ive installed mplayer in ubuntu before but this is a fresh install | 08:40 |
| apokryphos | this problem comes up time and time again on here, and as far as I've seen, that's solved it every time | 08:40 |

| Tuxicity | acolyte, hi | 08:42 |
| acolyte | hmm I'm a total newbie to Ubuntu AND irc so forgive me.. :) | 08:43 |
| acolyte | I have a little problem with installing/uninstalling software.. | 08:43 |
| apokryphos | What's the problem? | 08:43 |
| acolyte | I recently installed lm-sensors and I successfully uninstalled it with dpkg but I still think I'm getting error messages on bootup | 08:44 |
| acolyte | I haven't checked it yet 'cause I didn't reboot but that's not my biggest concern | 08:45 |
| === HillTop [~chatzilla@dt060n09.san.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| bronson | acolyte: error messages on bootup are the norm. | 08:45 |
| bronson | It doesn't actually mean anything's wrong... depends on the message. | 08:45 |
| bronson | So, er, what's the message? :) | 08:46 |
| acolyte | apt-get is kinda 'broken' because it says that some kind of program is not installed properly and it can't find an archive of it. | 08:46 |
| bronson | what's the exact error? | 08:46 |
| calamari | carlk: I take it that transcode isn't even in multiverse | 08:46 |
| bronson | calamari: no, go to Marillat. | 08:47 |
| calamari | is that a website? | 08:47 |
| bronson | calamari: deb ftp://ftp.nerim.net/debian-marillat unstable main | 08:47 |
| bronson | afaik that's the most recent. | 08:48 |
| calamari | bronson: thanks | 08:48 |
| acolyte | bronson: you mean due to lm-sensors? well I added some lines to /etc/modprobe.d/local to install it but they weren't recognized at bootup like "warning: ignored line at line 6,7,8 etc" and it has no serious consequences for my machine but it irritates me | 08:48 |

| bronson | acolyte: printpro isn't a part of Ubuntu. Where did it come from? | 08:54 |
| acolyte | this appears whenever I try to install a new application or when I try to start Synaptic | 08:54 |
| Coily | how can i dl a file directly from console? | 08:54 |
| Coily | er terminal :x | 08:54 |

| Tuxicity | Coily, wget | 08:55 |

| AndyR | if so can i see thier /etc/cups/cupsd.conf please | 08:56 |
| bronson | acolyte: hard to say exactly, but it looks like it's causing a conflict so needs to be upgraded. Probably the appropriate lines have been deleted from /etc/apt/sources.list? | 08:56 |
| hawke_ | AndyR: You need to enable listen on ips other than 127.0.0.1 | 08:57 |
| bronson | acolyte: so either remove printpro or tell apt where to find a newer version. | 08:57 |
| AndyR | hawke, you have a working 1?? | 08:57 |
