| niterider | quick question, i'm running a AMD Duron 1.2...should i apt-get install linux-k7 or 686...which is better for a 1.2 duron to use? | 12:58 |
| netpuppy | niterider: k7 | 12:58 |
| rm | if i download and install 5.04-preview, will i have to reinstall when the release goes public ? | 12:58 |
| niterider | thanks | 12:59 |
| mjr | rm, no, you can upgrade via the net | 12:59 |

| netpuppy | anybody had luck with that? | 01:00 |
| niterider | ?..really how does one update from warty to hoary without burning the iso? | 01:00 |
| netpuppy | I've copied the required libs to lib32 and installed the games using 'linux32' | 01:00 |
| Ribs | niterider: do a dist-update | 01:00 |
| niterider | that's it? | 01:01 |
| niterider | cool | 01:01 |
| Ribs | niterider: basically, you change the /etc/apt/sources.lst file to point to hoary sources | 01:01 |
| niterider | ok | 01:01 |
| Ribs | then you just get synaptic to 'mark all upgrades' and apply :) | 01:01 |
| netpuppy | niterider: replace all instances of 'warty' with 'hoary' in your sources.list and dist-upgrade | 01:01 |
| Ribs | easy | 01:01 |
| mjr | Ribs, if he installs the hoary preview, he won't even have to edit it :) | 01:01 |
| === Ribs is still firmly using warty | ||

| niterider | is it advisable to do it now, or should i wait till it's more stable | 01:02 |
| netpuppy | note the difference between update and upgrade | 01:02 |

| niterider | k..i'll take your advice and wait...as it is i'm lovin warty...i'm havin a blast | 01:05 |

| gabaug | is it possible to hook up another machine's ethernet jack to mine, and provide it internet via my wireless connection? | 01:10 |
| Fackamato | using fglrx driver, ati card, 2.6.10-k7, i install the driver, i load it, xorg works fine. i reboot, xorg doesn't start, i get this: www.tehjunkyard.net/xorg.log . i modprobe -r fglrx.ko, I copy the fglrx.ko from fglrx package to /lib/modules/kernelversion/kernel/drivers/video/fglrx.ko and modprobe it again. now it works. reboot, doesn't work.

| gma | speedy2782, in other words, it's called .themes in your home directory. open the themes config dialog, then click "Theme Details". Then click "Go To Theme Folder" and you'll get it open in the UI | 01:39 |

| mjr | underlord, each network card needs a spesific driver | 01:40 |

| Quest-Master | underlord: You will need specific drivers | 01:40 |
| mjr | Quarupt, most probaby, if you don't have other scsi discs | 01:40 |
| gma | underlord, different cards often require different drivers, but most cards are supported with drivers that come with Linux. | 01:40 |
| oggah | Quest-Master, you really read my mind. | 01:40 |
| oggah | :) | 01:40 |
| underlord | so how can i find linux compatable cards? | 01:40 |
| woodwizzle | Any tomboy users in here? What hotkey do you use for search or create new notes? | 01:41 |
| mjr | well, as said, most should work; I find that 3com or intel are the safest bets though | 01:41 |
| speedy2782 | underlord: what are you looking for? | 01:41 |
| Quarupt | mjr, how do i mount it? mount /dev/sda /media/sda? | 01:41 |
| Quest-Master | oggah: Is that a good thing? :) | 01:41 |
| mjr | Quarupt, for example, though it really should be automounted | 01:42 |
| mjr | Quarupt, and you might want to use pmount instead, as a regular user | 01:42 |
| underlord | speedy2782: well i have an old x86 box and a newer one, i plan to turn the newer one in to a x11 terminal server and the other a client, and i need a network that can handle that | 01:42 |

| Brend | Hello. We have the lastest hoary release running on a shiny new IBM server ... and with increasing frequency it's been freezing up completely. Right now it's just sitting at the login screen, dead, without us having done anything. From advice yesterday, we've checked /var/log/syslog and found nothing (including grepping for ksymoops and EID, whatver those are), run memtest86+ which came up clean, and used IBMs diagnostic thingy to check the d | 03:04 |
| tritium | FR500, let me see | 03:04 |
| Brend | It it possible that this is a problem with ubuntu, or should we call an engineer? | 03:04 |

| riffic | crimsun: 2.6.10-4? what about 2.6.10-6 ? | 03:04 |

If the problem disappears with the IBM supported distro, well then you might want to report a Ubuntu bug. But it's likely a hardware issue. | 03:07 |

| crimsun | tritium: well, SE can certainly apply certain principles, hence the whole momentum toward Six Sigma in some clearinghouses. | 04:01 |

| Brend | ian__, the ever-increasing void between theoretical computing and the state of the industry. Beaurocracy. Money-centric students. Corporations. .NET. Long hours, low pay. False economies. | 04:02 |
| tritium | crimsun, I think we're going to need some good input from software engineers to get it approved in IEEE | 04:02 |
| Brend | Though that's academia rather than CS per se, I guess | 04:02 |
| crimsun | jaimico: what program? | 04:02 |
| jaimico | crimsun, what program? | 04:03 |
| mjr | olu, well, you might try ntfsresize, but of course, the recommendation is to make a backup before using it ;) | 04:03 |
| crimsun | Brend: perhaps across the board. In my experience, students can be highly motivated by FLOSS, too. | 04:03 |
| jaimico | crimsun, i dunno the gnome volume control? | 04:03 |
| crimsun | jaimico: did you choose the ALSA portion? | 04:04 |
| jaimico | crimsun, yup..and try to play something and..nothing | 04:04 |
| jaimico | crimsun, i think dunno why the system has registered 2 cards..how can i remove one | 04:04 |
| crimsun | jaimico: nothing as in aplay hangs, waiting, or does it spit out an error, or does it appear to play, but you can't hear anything...? | 04:04 |
| Brend | crimsun, it depends where you go, I guess. In England at least, a disturbing percentage of CS students have no interest in CS _or_ SE as such, it's just a lucrative career | 04:05 |

| crimsun | it's an interesting environment but not my cup of tea. | 04:07 |

| Dethread | thank you sir | 04:08 |
| jaimico | crimsun, http://pastebin.ca/7461 | 04:08 |
| tritium | JDahl, yeah, the whole publishing process is a big money-making scam ;) | 04:09 |
| ficusplanet | ian__, If you want NM in hoary, I'd recommend building CVS and then modifying the dbus policy files to allow your user NetworkManagerInfo permissions. Maybe I should write a wiki page on this. | 04:09 |
| ian__ | ficusplanet: I think that's a great idea :) 6 months is a long time to wait | 04:09 |
| crimsun | jaimico: which output are you using, headphones? spdif? | 04:09 |
| jaimico | crimsun, headphones | 04:10 |
| crimsun | jaimico: connected to line-out? | 04:10 |
| jaimico | crimsun, yup..i have the stereo..connected to the headphones output | 04:10 |
| ficusplanet | ian__, Good point. I'll get something together before hoary - might as well package it up, too. The only annoyance with netapplet is that it uses gnome-keyring instead of gconf for wep keys, so you have to enter your password to change to another secure network. | 04:10 |

| crimsun | jaimico: I would look at unmuting the 'Aux' output and increasing the volume slider | 04:11 |
| crimsun | jaimico: that's not "two" cards, just different names for the detected device | 04:11 |
| spiderworm | hey all i threw in a pcmcia card after i had already installed ubuntu, its an atheros chipset card that works with madwifi, and madwifi is installed as part of the base ubuntu install according to what i've read... does ubuntu not check for new hardware on startup? | 04:11 |
| tritium | ficusplanet, somebody packaged up NetworkManager before | 04:12 |
| ian__ | tritium: the link I pasted earlier? | 04:12 |
| ficusplanet | tritium, Yeah, Thom May did, but they're the old 0.3.1 packages that are far off from current CVS builds and a bit buggy. | 04:12 |
| crimsun | jaimico: I have to run, but I'll be back in ~1 1/2 hours if you wish to continue troubleshooting then. | 04:12 |
| tritium | ian__, I missed it, if you pasted one | 04:12 |
| tritium | ficusplanet, oh, I see. Well, a good starting point, I would imagine | 04:12 |

| gratuit | hi I just installed ubuntu, and I was wondering, why does the default install have me listening on port 25? and why does trying to remove postfix try to also remove ubuntu-base? | 04:41 |
| cybermagellan | Well I am dual booting...and windows stays up perfectly fine for days at a time...BUT I install and *nix distro and it restarts the computer. Once I caught it saying critical temperature shutting down and would like to disable that | 04:41 |
| error_29 | ian__, that's a good question. I had assumed so. The desktop is acting weird in other ways; the screen edges flash whenever i drag anything near them, for example. I'll check gconfig | 04:41 |
| lamont | gratuit: it should have you listening on port 25 of the loopback address only | 04:42 |
| lamont | and ubuntu-base is a meta package that Depends: postfix - if you remove postfix, then it goes to. | 04:42 |
| lamont | too, even | 04:42 |
| cybermagellan | My motherboard doesn't have any diagnostics....but all *nix distro's think it does | 04:42 |
| cybermagellan | Well I should say monitoring tools | 04:43 |
| rkn | It was nice to see synaptic prompt me for a password and just sudo or su. | 04:43 |
| gratuit | lamont: I got that, but I was wondering more of the reason that ubuntu base depended on postfix, is the distribution somehow dependant on there being a mailserver active? | 04:43 |

| tyler | well, it has its problems but in terms of usability from a very non-linux person I think its excellent. ANd i've learnt more about linux using ubuntu than any other distro | 05:47 |
| crimsun | aule: then set a root password using sudo -s, like ironwolf asked. | 05:47 |

| geneo93 | 3.4 here | 06:47 |
| regeya_ | 3.4 here | 06:47 |
| regeya_ | much better than the last release | 06:47 |
| geneo93 | just never got to like gnome | 06:47 |
| Zotnix | GNOME developers are addressing speed issues, I know that much. | 06:47 |
| Zotnix | They hope to make 2.12 faster. | 06:47 |
| regeya_ | that's good to hear. | 06:47 |
| regeya_ | I also hear they're working on memory usage issues | 06:48 |
| Zotnix | Few apps have bounties for lowering memory usage. | 06:48 |
| Zotnix | Yeah | 06:48 |
| geneo93 | to many old timers working on gnome | 06:48 |
| Zotnix | It's hard to get new comers. | 06:48 |
| regeya_ | there's no reason why that nice clean feature-free desktop should use more mem than other large DEs | 06:48 |
| niran | does anyone who hates spatial nautilus actually leave it on for a while and try it out? | 06:49 |
| regeya_ | niran: not only did I leave it on for a while, but I used Finder for several years. | 06:49 |
| jbm__ | i did in 1984 | 06:49 |
| Zotnix | niran, I have. | 06:49 |
| niran | oh. | 06:49 |
| niran | well in that case | 06:49 |
| Zotnix | I use cli more often anyhow. | 06:49 |
| === niran goes back to the shadows | ||
| regeya_ | niran: an ars technica article on spatial browsing does not constitute a usability study. ;-) | 06:50 |
| Zotnix | Especially for removing files/moving files/copying files/etc. | 06:50 |
| niran | i use it and i like it | 06:50 |
| regeya_ | good for you! you get a cookie. ;-) | 06:50 |
| Zotnix | It's more based on personal taste. | 06:50 |
| niran | yeah. | 06:50 |
| regeya_ | also, based on how many files you have, and how many folders you use to keep those files organized | 06:51 |
| Zotnix | If my memory serves me anything Konqueror was no better than Nautilus when it comes to speed. | 06:51 |
| niran | yeah, when gnome switched to spatial, i reorganized my home | 06:51 |
| regeya_ | the larger your filesystem, imho, the more likely you are to want to murder whoever came up with spatial browsing | 06:51 |
| regeya_ | I guess what I'm trying to say is this: it doesn't scale. | 06:51 |
| niran | true, but i think it's better for the most common use cases | 06:52 |
| niran | not for drilling down to /usr/lib/weviWO | 06:52 |
| regeya_ | apparently a few core devs agree (though as you say, it's user switchable) | 06:52 |
| niran | i think it makes a better default though | 06:53 |
| niran | new users aren't going to have the directory hierarchy issues that established users do | 06:53 |
| regeya_ | switching it to default in one major release without asking was what made people angry, I suppose | 06:53 |
| regeya_ | it was *quite* annoying | 06:53 |
| niran | not including an option for switching it off was uncool | 06:53 |
| regeya_ | yikes, 5 to midnight here | 06:53 |
| niran | but why ask people before changing the default? | 06:54 |
| niran | if they did that for everything, nothing would get done | 06:54 |
| === pestil [~chatzilla@205.211.205.2] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| regeya_ | oh, but average users didn't need to switch from spatial! if you're smart enough to need browser mode, you're smart enough to edit a gconf key </laziness_excuse> | 06:54 |

| da_bon_bon | speedy2782: an open source gr8 format like mp3 | 07:14 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | it's a high quality patent-free audio encoding format. | 07:14 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | it's wayyyy better than mp3 though. | 07:14 |
| R0bNyc | is it me or am I the only 1 having problems installing from the ubuntu preview cd? | 07:14 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | for a comparable quality vorbis file, you'll have a file size of like 65% the size of the mp3. | 07:14 |
| speedy2782 | anyone else have an opinion of vorbis? | 07:14 |
| HrdwrBoB | it's good | 07:14 |
| HrdwrBoB | primarily because it's free | 07:14 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | it also is non-proprietary. | 07:14 |
| DarthFrog | speedy2782: vorbis is a totally free lossy music compression format. Ogg is the container, thus you will see references to Ogg Vorbis. | 07:15 |
| HrdwrBoB | I would question the validity of the 65% number | 07:15 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | it also has bitrate peeling, dynamic file attributes, and tons of other great features. | 07:15 |
| DarthFrog | Ogg vorbis rawks! | 07:15 |
| HrdwrBoB | however it is in general superior to mp3 | 07:15 |
| HrdwrBoB | however some embedded devices don't support it | 07:15 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | it's 65% or better. | 07:15 |

| LordGrunt | is it possible to create user with password made not needed? or at least space as pwd | 07:51 |
| WW | gobeavs: As someone else pointed out, the "-i" option is used to create a string substitution. Each input line will be called %, and the subsequent references to % will be replaced with each input line and executed. | 07:52 |
| WW | gobeavs: I think this might also work, and it's a bit simpler: | 07:52 |

| hardy | no | 08:17 |
| maz1977 | dazed__ is it a laptop? | 08:17 |

| maz1977 | dazed__: linux server | 08:21 |
| DarthFrog | dazed__: It makes a difference. What you are describing is a shutdown due to overheating. A crash is due to a software or hardware malfunction. | 08:21 |
| dazed__ | the less unpacking and setting up i think will work | 08:21 |
| dazed__ | maz1977: explain to me what that does | 08:22 |
| maz1977 | dazed__: at first prompt at install time | 08:22 |

| geneo93 | dazed__: i can help you with fstab if you need help | 08:52 |
| netpuppy | garrut: you could run different window managers for that matter | 08:52 |
| WebMaven_ | Ijust installed Hoary on this new Averatec AV3250HX80, and as far as I can tell, everything works but the wireless. | 08:52 |
| dazed__ | lol...i got the general idea of fstab...its where it sets up the directories and folders and stuff i think cuz i remember when i was pimping out my knoppix id save stuff to fstab cuz it was a live disc.. | 08:52 |
| garrut | yeah, but i like it better this way with a stretched desktop | 08:52 |
| DarthFrog | WebMaven_: What chipset does your wireless nic use? | 08:52 |
| dazed__ | geneo93: ill probably be calling on you in a lil im going to read up on how to do it and if i run into some snags ill holler at you. :) | 08:53 |
| netpuppy | garrut: uhm, was it that way in fedora too? | 08:53 |
| garrut | yep | 08:53 |
| geneo93 | k np | 08:53 |
| garrut | and the window list only showed windows from the screen it was on then | 08:53 |
| netpuppy | garrut: stretched (you could move a window from one screen to the other) AND gnome-panel only showing windows from each screen? | 08:53 |
| WebMaven_ | DarthFrog, according to this page: http://yencer.net/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=2&sid=2157305b40ebe36aaa4fb56e2fd2fc2b it has an RT2500 | 08:54 |

| garrut | netpuppy: that's right | 08:54 |
| netpuppy | hmm, maybe fedora used xinerama instead of nvidia's crap | 08:54 |
| dazed__ | damn it feels like 20 minutes ago it was 12 am now its 2....whered the time go | 08:54 |
| garrut | no in fedora i also used twinvieuw | 08:55 |
| netpuppy | garrut: can I see your xorg.conf? | 08:55 |
| netpuppy | garrut: err.. so your config is the same?! | 08:55 |
| dazed__ | are NTFS only mounted read only? | 08:55 |
| DarthFrog | WebMaven_: The RT2500 has an Open Source driver project on Sourceforge. I couldn't get it to compile for me, though. However, Ubuntu does have ndiswrapper. You could use that with the Windows driver. | 08:55 |
| GNAM | where can I find kernel changelog history? | 08:56 |
| DarthFrog | dazed__: yes. Linux can't yet safely write to NTFS partitions. | 08:56 |
| geneo93 | hmmm my juk wont worky now | 08:56 |
| dazed__ | hwo do u launch ndiswrapper...no success in command | 08:56 |
| netpuppy | DarthFrog: yes it can | 08:56 |
| dazed__ | damn... | 08:56 |
| WebMaven_ | DarthFrog, what do I need to do? | 08:56 |
| netpuppy | DarthFrog: very limited though | 08:56 |
| geneo93 | GNAM: kernel.org | 08:56 |

| garrut | netpuppy, everything works just fine, it's just the window list, because it shows windows from both screens there are like a billion windows in it :) | 08:58 |
| netpuppy | garrut: yeah, I get it | 08:59 |

| membreya | will adding modules to /etc/modules override the modules inbuilt in the kernel? | 09:46 |
| aspuru | garrut: ok. I will install by hand then :) I assume I have to remove all the .debs related to nvidia? or shall I leave them and they are overwritten? | 09:46 |
| garrut | yeah just run the installer | 09:47 |
| geneo91 | quarupt: use alien | 09:47 |
| quarupt | geneo91, how, the script calls rpms not debs and its over 20 packages | 09:47 |
| ian | ctr: got libtools-dev but that didn't do it | 09:47 |
| geneo91 | hehe i install java with rpm | 09:47 |
| aspuru | thanks garrut :) | 09:48 |

| ctr | ian: you need to install the various developer packages | 09:48 |
| cef | daniels: well I'm going to hoary anyway.. would it be worth it to do it via a new install (nothing I need to keep on it) or will a dist-upgrade still provide useful into | 09:48 |
| quarupt | membreya, ya there? | 09:48 |
| ctr | ian: like gcc, cpp, etc | 09:48 |
| cef | daniels: doh! | 09:48 |
| _axel | i noticed that if you build the nvidia kernel module using nvidia-kernel-source from sid and kernel-package,the module gets installed in /lib/modules/2.6.10, but the right location would be /lib/modules/2.6.10-4-386, so you have to do cp /lib/modules/2.6.10/nvidia/nvidia.ko /lib/modules/2.6.10-4-386/kernel/drivers/video/nvidia.ko... any workaround for this when building the package? | 09:48 |
| cef | daniels: so moved again? | 09:48 |
| daniels | cef: in the middle of doing so, yeah | 09:49 |
| geneo91 | quarupt: just get it in rpm | 09:49 |

| Zyan | padlefot: although having a hard time with python version's and getting some app's to compile.. but I don't think it's a Ubuntu issue | 11:33 |

| apokryphos | farruinn: I don't mean the gdm/kdm way :) | 11:34 |
| bwlang | apokryphos: ah ... you want update-alternatives x-session-manager | 11:34 |
| padlefot | Zyan did you install with the hoary CD, or update from warty? | 11:34 |

| apokryphos | bwlang: cool; how do I use that? | 11:35 |
| Zyan | padlefot: lol try a emerge gnome on gentoo.. without X installed yet | 11:36 |
| Zyan | padlefot: I'd say average of 10 hours to complete | 11:36 |
| padlefot | hahaha | 11:36 |
| icebalm | Zyan: kde is 3 times slower | 11:36 |
| regeya | ! | 11:36 |
| regeya | I take it you have numbers on hat | 11:36 |
| padlefot | i like the fact that hoary has gentoo 2.9 | 11:36 |
| bwlang | apokryphos: just type update-alternatives ... you'll get some usage info there... eg update-alternatives --config x-session-manager | 11:36 |
| padlefot | ***gnome 2.9 | 11:36 |
| padlefot | :P | 11:37 |
| Zyan | icebalm: *shudder | 11:37 |

| Zyan | Oh, I have a question about Ubuntu. Why is it that you do not set a root password? or did I miss it | 11:38 |
| Zyan | had to boot to single and set passwd for root | 11:38 |
| apokryphos | Zyan: explained in the site; wait, I'll get you a link | 11:38 |
| regeya | on an older box I had, it seemed to take about the same amount of time...both could be measured in days (2 in this case for both) | 11:38 |
| Zyan | apokryphos: thanks | 11:38 |
| padlefot | Zyan: so you can do it yourself :P | 11:38 |
| padlefot | hehe, its strange. i also questioned it when i installed | 11:39 |
| robtaylor | ok. my dns issue is that its reuesting for ipv6 address 1st, then goes through the search domains, then comes back and does an ipv4 query | 11:39 |
| padlefot | just run "sudo passwd root" with the user you create | 11:39 |
| bwlang | Zyan: generally ubuntu is set up to not use root.... insteat you're supposed to use sudo | 11:39 |
| regeya | but Gentoo GNOMErs like to say "KDE takes like 10000x longer to compile and it's ugly LOL" | 11:39 |
| padlefot | and you set the root passwd | 11:39 |
