| tsaphah | Right now only XP. Last linux distro I had was Suse 9.2 Pro and before that FreeBSD. I liked FreeBSD the best, just was as intuitive as most linux distros | 12:57 |

| PlasmaPain | knoppix looked freat too | 05:21 |
| calc | madstop: make a script to modify the config file | 05:21 |
| Absenth | warty = XF86-4 Hoary = Xorg. Both work fine. | 05:21 |
| madstop | I suppose being able to have different wallpaper on different workspaces would be overkill...? | 05:21 |
| sabmoc | Absenth: Im surprised they even know what computers are in Saskachewan. | 05:22 |
| tehats` | any... help... ? | 05:22 |

| robodex | wheeeeee compositing is fun | 05:22 |
| Absenth | sabmoc, I was in Okotoks?? (about 30km south of Calgary) feb 12-20 | 05:22 |
| robodex | speel: what issue? | 05:22 |
| sabmoc | speel: Im on hoary with nvidia and have no issues. | 05:22 |
| Absenth | speel I'm running it now, so I would say it works fine. | 05:22 |
| tehats` | eek? | 05:22 |
| speel | there was some issue with one of the kernels and the nvidia driver | 05:22 |
| tehats` | no one to help a noob when its needed? :P | 05:23 |
| linux_galore | yeah I found with the nvidia driver I had to setup a preload for the nvidia module before x tried to use it | 05:23 |
| Absenth | tehats`, what was the question? | 05:23 |
| tehats` | why cant the livecd boot on meh pentium 166 :P | 05:23 |
| PlasmaPain | has any one hacked ubuntu yet ? | 05:23 |
| sabmoc | tehats`: sometimes you have to really whine for a while until someone notices. | 05:23 |
| Absenth | tehats`, do I really need to answer that? | 05:23 |
| tehats` | lol ok | 05:23 |
| Madiba | sabmoc: i can only load live cd in safemode not noemal and morning | 05:23 |
| Quinn_Storm | tehats`: how much ram? | 05:23 |
| Absenth | tehats`, option 1 is of course, will the 166 boot to ANY cd? | 05:24 |
| tehats` | oh... not enough ram i guess haha | 05:24 |
| speel | PlasmaPain, well what do you mean hacked ubuntu | 05:24 |
| tehats` | yes, im running off DSL right now | 05:24 |
| madstop | tehats, all I can tell you is, in my experience, the cd's need a sloooooow burn -- I've had inconsistent results booting or installing on different machines | 05:24 |
| PlasmaPain | i mean break in to it | 05:24 |
| robodex | you'd be hard pressed to find a 166 that'll boot a windows 95 cd... | 05:24 |
| linux_galore | yeah Ive got a P1 166 and I have damn small linux on it......only thing thats half way decent | 05:24 |

| Madiba | sabmoc: | 05:25 |
| sabmoc | eh? | 05:25 |
| linux_galore | tehats`: install damn small linux......works fine even on 8mb of ram | 05:25 |
| Fackamato | PlasmaPain: you're really funny, i'm lmfao | 05:25 |
| PlasmaPain | how the hell dhould i know | 05:25 |
| tehats` | ah... would installing to hard drive help? | 05:25 |
| tehats` | or would it still be bad heh | 05:26 |
| linux_galore | tehats`: DSL even comes with a desktop | 05:26 |
| madstop | sabmoc, wouldn't the install cd allow just the base os to be loaded, for a server on old equipment, say -- and I thought the live cd might have loading options like that too | 05:26 |
| sabmoc | tehats`: yes it would be much better, but still it would be slow on a pentium 150 or whatever you said.. | 05:26 |
| tehats` | well, right now im having a DNS issue - im using ip's for some reason | 05:26 |
| tehats` | yes i know, im using dsl now ;p | 05:26 |
| PlasmaPain | Fackamato: keep your guts in | 05:27 |
| tehats` | but i have a inet problem that i dont know how to fix | 05:27 |
| tehats` | so i wanted to use something else to try | 05:27 |
| sabmoc | madstop: well I could be wrong, but I think the live cd is just for previewing what ubuntu looks and feels like, it doesnt install anything to your computer, not even if you want it to do that. | 05:27 |
| linux_galore | tehats`: theres a beefed up version of DSL running around with XFCE setup | 05:27 |
| tehats` | heh, i like flux ;p | 05:27 |
| sabmoc | madstop: but the regular install disk will install a base system just as you said. nice feature. | 05:27 |
| Madiba | sabmoc: i can only load live cd in safemode not normal and perhaps its an issue with nvidia drivers iv got geforcr 4 mx4 | 05:28 |
| madstop | yes, sabmoc, of course you're right-- I forgot, it just creates a ram drive or whatever it's called, right? | 05:28 |
| PlasmaPain | why not making a live cd ith install optin and lose the instaler cd ? | 05:28 |
| linux_galore | tehats`: I use XFCE and debian on my P1 166 (48mb) works fine although "dam small" runs faster | 05:28 |

| sabmoc | madstop: of course it works, and you should always have the same amount of ram as swap, when you go into hibernate it write everything in ram to the swap, so you need enough swap so even if your ram is full it will work properly. | 05:37 |

| madstop | thanks alec -- one thing I wonder about; suppose I had another linux install on same machine, sharing the swap; if I hibernated, then booted to the other kernel, would having a full swap mess up the other os's startup? | 05:43 |
| Quinn_Storm | az[a] zel_ubuntu: archive.ubuntu.com I mean...oh, ok | 05:43 |
| sabmoc | linux_galore: Im thinking of going into technical writing and webdevelopment. | 05:43 |
| Quinn_Storm | az[a] zel_ubuntu: then yeah they are in the process of syncing the mirror | 05:43 |
| linux_galore | Varies I found.... for most people 256mb is fine if your handling allot of services 512 or more might be needed | 05:43 |

| sabmoc | madstop: you can use firefox extensions in Opera (I heard, havent tried it.) | 05:54 |
| mass | makes a lot of other things easier | 05:54 |
| micmur | Absenth: I'll try that now | 05:54 |
| Absenth | sysfail, I've got Office 2K, lotus 6.5.2, and a few custom apps all running on cxoffice at work. cool stuff I tell you,. | 05:54 |
| linux_galore | madstop: I have mouse zooming.......and Opera doesnt have "nuke everything" | 05:54 |
| micmur | Still happening | 05:55 |
| sabmoc | sysfail: why oh why? IE? W h y? | 05:55 |
| madstop | linux_galore, I'm sorry, but this makes no sense to me. The Chinese are one-fifth of the world's population, with overseas Chinese, you can maybe bump that up to one-fourth, but not more than half speaking these "dialects" -- which often are more accurately called languages. | 05:55 |
| sysfail | im hoping viewing cams in yahoo messenger will work under crossover | 05:55 |
| Absenth | Micksa, I'll turn you over to some of the other experts then. | 05:55 |
| sysfail | cause i cant view em in gaim | 05:55 |
| linux_galore | madstop: nuke everything - extension in Firefox is great when you get pages not formated for printing you just click on everything you want removed | 05:55 |
| madstop | Cantonese and Mandarin for example are mutually unintellible; the written language is essentially however unified | 05:55 |
| micmur | Well that didn't work | 05:55 |
| micmur | Anybody else have any suggestions? | 05:56 |

| sabmoc | madstop: The Chinese population is 1.3 billion living on the mainland and 500million living outside the country. | 05:56 |
| linux_galore | madstop: you forget many other countries are tied to the Chinese dialect | 05:56 |
| sabmoc | earth population? | 05:56 |
| madstop | ok, sabmoc. Like I said, not more than half the world's population! | 05:56 |
| linux_galore | madstop: Japan for one | 05:56 |
| SiRrUs | mass not sure what you package I was just suggesting that shouting here was not the way to go :) | 05:57 |
| mass | SiRrUs, filed a bug in ubuntu bugzilla | 05:57 |
| sysfail | anybody been able to view webcams in GAIM?? | 05:57 |
| madstop | What other countries? Singapore? A city state, and Chinese is not all that's spoken there. Overseas minorities in Malaysia, Indonesia, Canada, US, etc... | 05:57 |
| ^thehatsrule^ | another question here... does ubuntu only comes with | 05:57 |
| mass | just need modules compiled for my raid card in official packages ;-) | 05:57 |
| ^thehatsrule^ | gnome? | 05:57 |
| ^thehatsrule^ | does ubuntu only comes with gnome? | 05:58 |
| ^thehatsrule^ | that is | 05:58 |
| linux_galore | madstop: your just counting the "100%" chinese dialects you not also counting those dialtect thats derive from one of the chinese dialects | 05:58 |
| madstop | linux_galore, good lord, the Japanese speak Japanese. | 05:58 |
| madstop | Not Chinese | 05:58 |
| SiRrUs | ^thehatsrule^ thats the default | 05:58 |
| Absenth | ^thehatsrule^, yes, the default install of ubuntu is gnome. you can get kde from synaptic, or through apt. | 05:58 |
| linux_galore | madstop: yes study Japanese you will often see a historical reference for words back to a chinese dialect | 05:58 |
| ^thehatsrule^ | i mean, off the cd, could i get flux? | 05:59 |
| geneo93 | kubutu also | 05:59 |
| ^thehatsrule^ | or do i have to do a hd-install? | 05:59 |
| ^thehatsrule^ | because for now, i want to run off livecd to see how i like it | 05:59 |
| SiRrUs | ^thehatsrule^ think you will be running gnome then | 05:59 |
| mass | there is still enough similarities to the written chinese language for chinese people in japan to sorta-kinda almost know what is going on | 06:00 |
| mass | in written form, not spoken of course :) | 06:00 |
| Absenth | ^thehatsrule^, Unless you grab the kubuntu distro, in which case it'll be a live cd/ with kde | 06:00 |
| sabmoc | madstop: they use many of the same written characters (chinese and japanese). But thats about all that most chinese dialects have in common anyway, same written language. | 06:00 |
| ^thehatsrule^ | hm... you cannot change it in the ramdisk? | 06:00 |
| ^thehatsrule^ | or no one has tried ;p | 06:00 |
| madstop | We've borrowed a helluva lot of words from French, too, linux_galore , by your reasoning we should add English to the percentage of people who speak French. Chinese, with Tibetan, occupies its own language family. Japanese is unrelated, except by borrowing. | 06:00 |
| Absenth | ^thehatsrule^, I'd suspect you'ld have to change the distro. I don't think flux is included in the ISO. | 06:01 |
| linux_galore | yeah but the chinese have traded and colonised all around Asian basin and exported there language and culture with it | 06:01 |
| madstop | Anyway, this has to be insanely boring and off topic to everybody else here. Sorry | 06:01 |
| geneo93 | ^thehatsrule^: try over on kubuntu channel | 06:01 |
| ^thehatsrule^ | no - i dont want kde | 06:01 |
| ^thehatsrule^ | heh, id like Funbuntu | 06:01 |
| ^thehatsrule^ | lol! | 06:01 |
| linux_galore | madstop: yes english has become a bit like the mongrel dialect from hell | 06:02 |
| ^thehatsrule^ | alright - i just thought i could change it in ramdisk | 06:02 |
| madstop | Yes, sabmoc. Writing is a whole other ballgame; complicated by the "simplification" of mainland Chinese. Different character sets for Taiwan and China now. Sucks | 06:02 |
| sabmoc | madstop: are you from tiawan? | 06:02 |
| geneo93 | ^thehatsrule^: there is an iso of kubuntu | 06:03 |

| linux_galore | yeah Taiwan has drifted allot........also one thing the Chinese always seem to ignore is the fact Taiwan has a aboriginal culture way before the chinese turned up | 06:03 |
| Absenth | I was tempted to "cd /home" "rm -Rf ." today on the 9 linux servers | 06:03 |

| sabmoc | not to side with the evil chinese empire, but tianwan isnt even recognized as a country by the vast majority of governments today. | 06:05 |
| madstop | In Canton, sabmoc, I saw lots of signs exorting the Cantonese to speak Mandarin. And the signs were written in pinyin (latin characters) which many folks couldn't read! | 06:05 |
| linux_galore | China ruled Korea for a long time Im suprised they Chinese havent tried to say Korea isnt a rebel province too | 06:05 |
| linux_galore | the* | 06:06 |
| sabmoc | i think about 40 governments recognize Tiawan, and a lot of those are small African nations. | 06:06 |
| madstop | sabmoc, officially, Taiwan doesn't recognize itself as a country yet, just as a province of China. | 06:06 |

| dr_willis | seems as paranoid as the ubuntu guys are in other areas of security - that there would be some limit allready in place. | 06:08 |
| sabmoc | madstop: its where you get an application to fork, creating a new thread, and do that continuously until all the system resources are taken and the system grinds to a halt. | 06:08 |
| mass | its part of a class of exploits where the operating system is either misconfigured or incapable of limiting the resources a non-priviledged user account can consume | 06:09 |

| DarthFrog | Nothing wrong with communism in theory, other than it ignores human behaviour and tends to promote totalitarianism. | 06:29 |

| Absenth | I think we can trust sabmoc and his horde as well. | 06:30 |
| janc | Belgium has good beers, yes :) | 06:30 |
| sabmoc | DarthFrog: the problem with communism is that it needs as you say, totalitarianist centralized government who put themselves outside the communist loop. I dont think you can fix communism. | 06:30 |
| linux_galore | yeah but Belgium has very high tax's | 06:30 |

| sabmoc|work | Mguel721: why are you trying to compile bluefish, it is in the apt repository. just `apt-get install bluefish` | 06:41 |
| janc | firefox 1.0.1 misses some 'gnome-style' icons | 06:42 |
| dweaver | My initial installl had sound although low volume. I did the update that was recommended through GNOME today and now I don't have any sound. This was why I left MS! | 06:42 |
| geneo93 | i would not use ie if you paid me a 100 bucks a use | 06:42 |
| janc | but the Gnome-FX theme has them right... | 06:42 |
| sabmoc|work | Square: my problem is photoshop, its hard to break that addiction. Not that gimp isnt great, it really is awesome. I use gimp and photoshop. | 06:42 |
| madstop | thing about windows is, there are a lot of great apps that don't (yet?) have as good alternatives in linux. At least not that are easy for a newbie like me to find and run | 06:43 |
| ^thehatsrule^ | theres no photoshop for linux? | 06:43 |

| ^thehatsrule^ | good thing for windows is GAMES! :D | 06:43 |

| dweaver | geneo93: what brought you to Ubuntu if you shyed away from debian? | 06:59 |
| DarthFrog | geneo93: There's nothing so-called about it. Ubuntu has offered a bounty for getting greater use of Python in the wider community. | 07:00 |

| madstop | thank you Quinn_Storm ; unfortunately, when it comes to the programming side of things, I've never made it past "hello world!" in anything! | 07:02 |
| DarthFrog | geneo93: If python is too slow, let them code C. :-) | 07:02 |
| geneo93 | hey i have subversion | 07:03 |
| jdub | DarthFrog: it kicks butt for servers too, it just happens to have a really awesome desktop | 07:03 |
| Xenguy | jdub: I see where yer coming from | 07:03 |
| Quinn_Storm | madstop: that I understand, not everyone's a programmer | 07:03 |

| DarthFrog | jdub: Not arguing against using Ubuntu for servers but why wouldn't you use regular Debian for that? | 07:03 |
| Xenguy | DarthFrog: a fair question IMO | 07:04 |
| jdub | DarthFrog: because ubuntu is newer, has excellent security support, etc. | 07:04 |
| sabmoc|work | Is the server end of ubuntu substantially different from debian? | 07:04 |
| FlyNavy | Can anyone help with display problems on install? | 07:04 |
| jdub | DarthFrog: big difference betweeen warty and woody :) | 07:04 |
| DarthFrog | jdub: OK, I've not investigated that. | 07:04 |
| geneo93 | twisted and nevou | 07:04 |
| Xenguy | jdub: well newer isn't always better :-) , and I think Debian has excellent security support really | 07:05 |
| janc | geneo93 : 'nevow' :) | 07:05 |
| madstop | jdub, how much influence, if any, does the ubuntu team have with the gnome developers? Is there cooperation happening there? | 07:05 |
| jdub | Xenguy: it's very difficult to provide solid support for woody | 07:05 |
| DarthFrog | jdub: Yeah, woody is old now. But sarge isn't. | 07:05 |

| jdub | madstop: i do release strategy for ubuntu, and am release manager of gnome | 07:05 |
| janc | geneo93 : it's 'woven' spelled backwards | 07:06 |
| sig | anyone know what package mpeg2encode comes in? | 07:06 |
| janc | 'woven' was the predecessor of 'nevow' | 07:06 |
| jdub | Xenguy: mmm, it's been RSN for a long time now. meanwhile, i trust the ubuntu release cycle and security team. :) | 07:06 |
| geneo93 | lots of threads | 07:06 |
| madstop | Ah, jdub. Great. Well, since this ain't the "gnome channel" I'll try to restrain myelf from interrogating you about gnome | 07:06 |

| janc | warty has an older version of Firefox | 07:36 |
| dweaver | Sabmoc: yes, I know that. I have been developing for almost 20 years now and have seen many people that judge themselves by the languages that they know. I am just looking to start developing on an OS that I like rather than one that I am forced to and was curious as to what I should look into. I know that most development on linux is done in c but I am not that anal. If there is an easy tool I'll use it. | 07:36 |
| tsaphah | hrm .. I'll try the apt stuff again. | 07:36 |
| siimo | hi, can someone please tell me how to change my system so that httpd will not start at bootup and i can start it whenever i want by /etc/init.d/httpd start | 07:36 |

| dweaver | geneo93: Is that language independent or does it rely on a specific language? | 07:38 |
| bryan | qt sucks | 07:38 |
| geneo93 | tsaphah: tick then all the update | 07:38 |
| janc | tsaphah : the warty release doesn't have FF 1.0 yet | 07:38 |
| sabmoc|work | dweaver: Alright, sorry. Its nice to see experienced people moving to Linux! So many experienced windows admins or hackers are so set in there ways and afraid of Linux (I think because they have no real skils and have gotten by mostly by fooling there non-techy bosses). Anyway, yeah python is good. I judge a language by how many real applications are written in that language, python passes that test. | 07:38 |

| sabmoc|work | madstop: html and javascript | 07:45 |
| Square | shell scripting | 07:45 |
| j-rock | heh, i've always hated html | 07:46 |
| sabmoc|work | html is meant to be hated | 07:46 |
| jdub | madstop: do you want to learn how to be a programmer, or do you just want to do stuff? | 07:46 |
| madstop | The tutorials for python seem excellent -- Square, you mean like perl, ? is that shell scripting? | 07:46 |
| Square | perl or just bash scripting | 07:46 |
| dweaver | madstop: I have been looking at Python and really like it. I don't think that a novice would have problems with the tutorial although I have been twiddling bits for a very long time and may be full of shit. | 07:47 |
| madstop | jdub, I'd like to know enough to alter the behaviour of open source apps I enjoy using | 07:47 |

| sabmoc|work | madstop: wiki written in C? which one? | 07:49 |
| sirukin | h | 07:49 |

| tuggy | so with hoary, any of the dwl-g650 cards should work out of the box | 09:55 |
| Ghost-nine | why not Ebuntu? | 09:55 |
| xiglet | but I have one problem with ubuntu. Installed hoary the same day the preview was released, added the repo's multiverse, marillat and universe and was able to install xmms, xine, mplayer etc. Did the same thing now after a reinstall but now I'm getting a lot of errors. Some dependencie problems. Anyone experienced something like this? | 09:55 |
| sabmoc | xiglet, yep | 09:55 |
| tuggy | xiglet, there is like 60 updates a day | 09:55 |

| tuggy | it is going to be like this till april 6th | 09:56 |
| sabmoc | xiglet, right now so many packages are being updated that things are a bit funky | 09:56 |
| spectrm | xiglet: the repo's might not be compatible | 09:56 |
| xiglet | ok, I see | 09:56 |
| spectrm | xiglet: ubuntu's still going through some infrastructure dev | 09:56 |
| sabmoc | xiglet, after its 'officially' release everything will calm way down and stuff should just work | 09:56 |

| spectrm | xiglet: I can't see the errors from here | 09:56 |
| spectrm | xiglet: otherwise I'd prolly be able to figure it out | 09:56 |
| xiglet | so I should stick to stable I guess | 09:57 |
| spectrm | xiglet: maybe uninstall and reinstall the packages | 09:57 |

| xiglet | I just tried spamassassin. It said : Depends: libhtml-parser-perl (>= 3.31) but it is not installable | 09:57 |
| pinPoint | how does one remove a minipci card | 09:58 |
| pinPoint | where is it? | 09:58 |

| spectrm | pinPoint: wanna start scrapping your lappy already? | 09:58 |
| pinPoint | had for 7+months | 09:59 |
| xiglet | maybe it is some other problems here. But it's strange, the only thing I did after install was to create gpg keys (as the wiki said) and added multiverse , marillat and universe | 09:59 |
| tuggy | pinPoint, probably under the keyboard in under a back panel | 09:59 |
| pinPoint | hell ya! if that means i get a new pcmcia card | 09:59 |
| xiglet | sabmoc: so no, now it suddenly appears to involve a lot of packages... | 09:59 |
| pinPoint | if i do get a pcmcia card | 09:59 |
| pinPoint | will it be wlan1 or 0 | 09:59 |
| sabmoc | im pretty sure taking your laptop appart will void any warrenty | 09:59 |
| tuggy | pin you can just leave the minipci card in | 09:59 |
| spectrm | pinPoint: ifconfig | 09:59 |
| tuggy | its not going to hurt anything | 09:59 |
| tuggy | unless you want to say... smash it | 10:00 |
| sabmoc | xiglet, yep, its just the blitz, wait a while or maybe try reinstalling if possible. | 10:00 |
| pinPoint | im angry at it | 10:00 |
| pinPoint | we settle it out one on one | 10:00 |

| sabmoc | sleep is for the weak | 10:00 |
| xiglet | sabmoc: I just reinstalled. But I guess I'll have to live with it as long as it is unstable | 10:00 |
| sabmoc | you dont want sleep | 10:00 |
| sabmoc | xiglet, yep, pretty much | 10:01 |

| chickenman | topyli , i don't understand :| | 02:59 |
| visor | amiroff: i think theres a deb in inskape site that works just right out the box in debian and ubuntu | 02:59 |
| Zotnix | chickenman, say you have your hard drive split in two. / can be on the second half. | 02:59 |
| Mitario | damn, why does the live cd regenerate all those locales | 02:59 |
| Zotnix | You can still install windows on the first half of the drive though | 02:59 |
| Rattboi | Zotnix, that's how mine is set up | 02:59 |
| topyli | chickenman: you can install windows on hda1 and linux on an extended partition like hda5 | 02:59 |
| chickenman | can you tell me how to do this with the partion tool | 03:00 |
| Rattboi | my first partition is XP, second is /home, third is swap, fourth is / | 03:00 |
| topyli | chickenman: easiest is to install windows first, and just leave some unpartitioned space to the end of the disk. then install linux | 03:00 |
| nicc | no difference, | 03:00 |
| nicc | ? | 03:00 |
| chickenman | so how much does a full linux take up ? | 03:00 |
| zenwhen | < 2GB | 03:01 |
| JDigital | couple gigs | 03:01 |
| nicc | yep | 03:01 |
| chickenman | windows 98 only need 1gb max | 03:01 |
| zenwhen | and includes nothing | 03:01 |
| topyli | linux? about 1,5 megs. the full distro is a bit more :) | 03:01 |
| JDigital | windows < linux :D | 03:01 |
| chickenman | so i will make windows 2gb and the rest linux ok | 03:02 |
| topyli | chickenman: define "the rest" | 03:02 |
| zenwhen | chickenman, sounds good | 03:02 |
| zenwhen | give windows as little space as possible to cramp you into your Linux install | 03:02 |
| visor | can anyone tell me if there is a special issue with framebuffer or something as i cant acces any virtual console when using X and think i didnt had this before with warty | 03:02 |

| chickenman | ok well i better make some backups :D | 03:04 |
| will | but then i have /home on a 30gb drive! | 03:04 |
| topyli | chickenman: you're confused. :) windows wants to be on C: (first partition of first disk) but linux / can be on any partition | 03:04 |
| zenwhen | speel- "sudo apt-get install k3b" will get you a nero clone that you should run with gksudo k3b | 03:04 |
| chickenman | still don't get it | 03:04 |
| JDigital | ubuntu is mounted at / but in my case Windows is mounted at /windows | 03:05 |

| Zotnix | will, wow. I only run Linux and I'm using a total of 47 GB (including /home... which is 38 GB of that.) | 03:05 |

| tsume | membreya: gnome or even the X server initialised | 03:27 |
| zenwhen | visor, as I am not currently experiencing your issue, not have I seen anyone complain about it... I cannot currently solve your issue. Mind you it is early in the morning in the US and a Sunday so the channel traffic is probably slower than normal. This time isn't really indicative of how the channel normally is. | 03:27 |
| tsume | you need to escape the X server before you can freely browse the terminals | 03:27 |
| membreya | AMIGrAve: yup they're fine..just make sure the modules I gave you are at the TOP of your modules file | 03:27 |
| visor | yeah i did know that i have like 8 years using linux :P it never happened to me | 03:28 |
| SeeleyUSMC | Anyone think they can help me get my Atheros a/b/g to work in Ubuntu live CD? I want to see if it will work or hear from someone else that they have it working on the install version at least. I'm brand new to linux and need all the help I can get to get on my feet with linux. I want t learn a lot, but it would be easier if I could get an internet connection while I'm using linux instead... | 03:28 |
| Codyman | when i was installing on my am64 laptop, I bypassed the network config because i have a broadcom wifi card that i need to install drivers for... however now when i go to plug in ethernet it doesn't work on the internet either... what command setups the network.. dpkg-reconfigure something? | 03:28 |
| SeeleyUSMC | ...of having to boot back and forth each time to try something. | 03:28 |

| sabmoc | PlasmaPain, the difference between a virus and a rootkit is that viruses or worms can install themselves by a script runing loose on the internet, sometimes thousands of windows boxed are compromized, but a rootkit needs to be installed by hand. Which would you rather prefer? | 05:06 |

| pipeline | sabmoc: Are you kidding? | 05:10 |
| apokryphos | Chipzz: certainly not, since there's no Makefile in firefox tar. | 05:10 |

| PlasmaPain | don't expose your machine to the open internet ? | 05:15 |
| Chipzz | no, mooter ;) | 05:15 |
| pipeline | sabmoc: They rarely propogate themselves because that's not the author's goal -- they want a slave machine for other purposes. | 05:15 |

| Tiscan | PlasmaPain: Never expose any machine to the open internet, always have a firewall between it and the net. | 05:15 |
| GnuKemist | anywho, I wanted to know if there's anyone here from North NJ who'd be interested in joining a new MeetUp group a friend of mine started? | 05:15 |
| heze | tiscan, on the average, windows users aren't as skillful as linux users so you can't compare. with the same amount of experience on windows as on linux, i'd say the windows dude is able to disable the unsecure services. | 05:15 |
| Chipzz | apokryphos: same thing for my argument | 05:15 |
| pipeline | sabmoc: There's no reason to write a "worm" because there are so much more useful things to do with a Linux server sitting on a fat pipe. | 05:15 |
| DarthFrog | pipeline: If one need to enable remote root logins, more better would be to enable root logins without-password in sshd_config and do cryptographic authentication. | 05:15 |
| pipeline | DarthFrog: root logins are enabled by default. I advise that they not be. | 05:15 |
| apokryphos | Chipzz: you're wrong; you misunderstood what firefox tarballs are like. | 05:15 |
| Chipzz | apokryphos: I was wrong in the wording, and so were you | 05:16 |
| PlasmaPain | so why isnt ubunto coming with a firewall to stat with if ppl are gona go online with it ?!! | 05:16 |
| GnuKemist | we pretty muc adopted Ubuntu for all the new comers | 05:16 |
| GnuKemist | much | 05:16 |
| DarthFrog | pipeline: I agree. | 05:16 |
| pipeline | PlasmaPain: Ubuntu has no services enabled by default. | 05:16 |
| sabmoc | pipeline, ok, all rootkit attacks are by definition scripted, but what im saying is it is much more common for someone to use the scripts to gain access to a single intranet or server instead of just releasing a worm into the wild. | 05:16 |
| heze | pipeline, root login is impossible by default on ubuntu since there's no password for root, no? | 05:16 |
| Chipzz | apokryphos: I know very well there are binary tarballs of firefox | 05:16 |
| pipeline | PlasmaPain: No services means no need for a firewall. | 05:16 |
| Tiscan | heze: So a skilled windows user will have transparancy into vulernabuilities to understand them and verify they are fixed? | 05:16 |
| LinuxJones | PlasmaPain, any Ubuntu service won't accept connections form the outside unless you manually tell it to. | 05:16 |

| heze | tiscan, still, the amount of exploits isn't that different between the two OSes | 05:26 |
| sabmoc | heze, yes, but a local root exploit is not so bad | 05:26 |
| heze | sabmoc, well remote root exploit needs some service which we're not running :> | 05:26 |
| DarthFrog | SeeleyUSMC: It is a standard, for the most part. But it's still early days. | 05:26 |
| Tiscan | heze: The difference is I am placing my trust into that of a community, and if I wanted I could verify things myself. in the MS case you are trusting a single source, and you couldn't verify anything if you wanted. | 05:26 |
| sabmoc | heze, because if someone has local access on your computer there are at least 100 other ways they can crash the server. | 05:26 |
| carlos | i run gscanbus and say this : couldn't get handle: No such file or directory | 05:26 |
| carlos | This probably means that you don't have raw1394 support in the kernel or that | 05:26 |
| carlos | you haven't loaded the raw1394 module. | 05:26 |
| LinuxJones | SeeleyUSMC, complain to your card manufacturer that you want Linux support | 05:26 |
| DarthFrog | SeeleyUSMC: What chipset does your wireless card use? | 05:27 |
| Tiscan | heze: I beg to differ, historically MS has many more issues & expliots. | 05:27 |

| meepmeep | hi :) | 05:38 |
| sabmoc | hello | 05:39 |
| GnuKemist | apokryphos, I'm helping out Bauhn and he wants to compile usb wireless support... can we only install the headers instead of compiling a new kernel? | 05:39 |
| JRlinux | Just burned Kubuntu this morning and now booting it live... | 05:39 |
| DarthFrog | GnuKemist: Yes. | 05:39 |
| GnuKemist | DarthFrog, thanx | 05:39 |
| TQuid | sig: d'oh! You caught me, I came here before googling. I am shamed. | 05:39 |
| ignus | DarthFrog, yeah man i am. | 05:39 |
| meepmeep | if i try to update/upgrade my warty into hoary, all things will be automatically reconfigure ? (like X.org etc.) | 05:39 |
| kapputu | how much diskspace does Ubuntu occupy? | 05:40 |
| heze | sabmoc, i'm just counting the amount of exploits on windows. the situation is so much better than the 98 ages. | 05:40 |
| DarthFrog | ignus: What sound app are you using? | 05:40 |
| TQuid | nemo_, I expect you'd need to add the kernel module for that. | 05:40 |
| JRlinux | Konversation is a new IRC client to me... | 05:40 |
| ignus | how do u mean app? | 05:40 |
| kapputu | it seems to be taking up like 5Gig | 05:40 |

| ignus | DarthFrog, im trying to get vlc working if thats what you mean | 05:40 |
| nemo_ | TQuid, ah.. can the syntaptic package manager do that? | 05:40 |
| apokryphos | madstop: I see that Win-key is now used as an alternate to Ctrl/Alt in KDE. That means that you'll have to make the shortcut like Win+<somekey> I think. :| | 05:40 |
| madstop | apokryphos, the panel popup launch won't let me set just the win logo key | 05:40 |
| madstop | heh heh, | 05:40 |
| TQuid | nemo_: hm, no, I don't think so. Let me check something here. | 05:41 |
| DarthFrog | ignus: What type of files? You need gstreamer0.8-mad installed to play MP3s. | 05:41 |
| sabmoc | heze depends how you loot at it, personally I think its getting worse because worms and viruses are becoming more sophisticated and many people still run 98 or ME | 05:41 |
| TQuid | kapputu: I'm taking up 2 G for /usr, about 1 G for /var, and a hundred meg for / and /boot together. | 05:41 |
| ignus | its an avi | 05:41 |
| jalal_ubuntu | hi all | 05:41 |
| apokryphos | madstop: it's kind of annoying, but I can see why they would do that. | 05:41 |

| geneo93 | madstop: my windows key brings up menu | 05:42 |
| GnuKemist | DarthFrog, I'm used to always compiling the kernel from scratch on Gentoo... so by installing the headers I can compile other 3rd party apps (e.g. ndiswrapper) w/o messing with the kernel? | 05:42 |
| apokryphos | geneo93: on kde? | 05:42 |
| ignus | DarthFrog, if i install that do you think if will fix it? | 05:42 |
| thenuke | kapputu: apt-get autoclean might help a bit | 05:42 |
| geneo93 | yes | 05:42 |
| sabmoc | heze thats a whole different ball game | 05:42 |
| madstop | geneo93, it used to for me too, pre-kubuntu | 05:42 |
| DarthFrog | GnuKemist: ndiswrapper is already available in Ubuntu. But, yes. | 05:42 |
| apokryphos | geneo93: you using 3.4? | 05:42 |
| heze | sabmoc, oh k. why? :) | 05:42 |
| DarthFrog | ignus: Don't know. | 05:42 |
| geneo93 | yes | 05:42 |
| TQuid | kapputu: not offhand, sorry--sounds like you're pretty cramped! | 05:43 |
| lawman | hi. just installed ubuntu 5.04 on laptop. screen goes black on after rebooting. pressed ctl-alt-f2 to get to console and can login no problem. at prompt now, and don't know how to get X started from here. any idea what to do. be gentle i'm a complete newbie. (ps. all other distro's work on this laptop fine) | 05:43 |
| TQuid | nemo_, looks like there's an hfs kernel module in the default kernel. | 05:43 |
| apokryphos | geneo93: last question: a recent version (when, roughly)? | 05:43 |
| === mjg59 [mjg59@cavan.codon.org.uk] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| GnuKemist | DarthFrog, so on a new install would I have to get the headers and then apt-get ndiswrapper? sorry for repeating the same question but want to make it clear to myself | 05:43 |
| TQuid | Have you tried just "mount -t hfs blah blahblah"? | 05:43 |
| madstop | I'm really liking these kde menus and settings dialogs so far. | 05:43 |
| geneo93 | 3 days ago | 05:43 |
| DarthFrog | GnuKemist: Yes. Ndiswrapper might be installed by default, though. | 05:43 |
| nemo_ | TQuid, this is hfs+ though.. yeah, I can mount it but you get the really, really empty disk with a readme explaining I need a new MacOS :-/ | 05:43 |

| madstop | beats the hell out of gconfig, at least for newbies | 05:44 |
| lawman | hi. just installed ubuntu 5.04 on laptop. screen goes black on after rebooting. pressed ctl-alt-f2 to get to console and can login no problem. at prompt now, and don't know how to get X started from here. any idea what to do. be gentle i'm a complete newbie. (ps. all other distro's work on this laptop fine) | 05:44 |
| DarthFrog | GnuKemist: Agreed! :-) | 05:45 |
| sabmoc | madstop, some people like kde, some like gnome. competition on the desktop is a good thing. | 05:45 |
| geneo93 | lawman: try startx | 05:45 |
| madstop | apok, one fly in the ointment for me probably-- I'll bet that kicker won't work as well in gnome for me as it used to. That's the main reason I wanted kde, just to use kicker and kicker applets as an extra "panel" in gnome. | 05:46 |
| lawman | says server is already active for display 0. | 05:46 |
| lawman | xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server | 05:46 |
| madstop | I think the new kde pop-ups and various other stuff will not play happy with gnome anymore. Gonna try anyway | 05:46 |
| lawman | xinit: unable to connect to X server | 05:46 |
| DarthFrog | lawman: Press ALT-F7 | 05:47 |
| lawman | pressed. screen goes black again | 05:47 |
| heze | lawman, "sudo killall gdm" first if you wanna manually startx | 05:47 |
| DarthFrog | lawman: Reboot. | 05:47 |
| madstop | ubuntuizing kde like this tips the balance in kde's favor for me, apokryphos ; too many annoyances with nautilus and the gnome panels | 05:47 |
| === kent [~madhawks@82.145.135.26] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| lawman | ok. will do and will get back to you in a while. | 05:47 |
| nemo_ | TQuid, libhfsp0 is installed according to the package manager, I'll try looking around a bit more later | 05:47 |
| apokryphos | madstop: Well, konqueror does happen to be one of my very favourite progs of all time. :) | 05:48 |
| DarthFrog | madstop: Having KDE available for Ubuntu was the thing that did it for me, too. | 05:48 |
| nemo_ | TQuid, thanks for the pointer anyway :-) | 05:48 |
| heze | lawman, wait a tic? | 05:48 |
| TQuid | nemo_, ah, OK, not familiar with hfs+, sorry. | 05:49 |
| madstop | really beautiful design choices, from what I see so far. | 05:49 |
| heze | lawman, did you try to shuffle the signal output thingie on your laptop, just to make sure the signal isn't only going out on your external vga connector? | 05:49 |
| nemo_ | TQuid, no matter, thanks for trying :-) | 05:49 |

| SmokingFire | ok | 05:52 |
| madstop | (gnome's desktop switcher, or pager or whatever it's called is still better-- you can drag apps from one workspace to another, for example) | 05:52 |
| heze | hoary install doesn't ask for a root password | 05:52 |
| GnuKemist | hummm | 05:52 |
| heze | there is no root password unless explicitly set with passwd | 05:52 |

| codyman | apokryphos: thanks | 06:14 |
| DarthFrog | snk00sj: As root: "mount /dev/(windows partition) (mount point) | 06:14 |

| geneo93 | lawman: can you do a apt-get update | 06:14 |
| GnuKemist | lawman, do lsmod |grep via | 06:14 |
| lawman | not connected to internet | 06:14 |
| DarthFrog | geneo93: if there's a module missing, then it's definitley a bug. | 06:14 |
| codyman | apok: x11-dev is installing | 06:14 |
| lawman | does it matter? | 06:14 |
| snk00sj | i'll check it out right now | 06:14 |
| GnuKemist | lawman, not at the moment | 06:15 |
| snk00sj | manually i can mount the partition, thats the strange thing | 06:15 |

| Dillweed | LBM, i'm not sure how the install script works, but I would suspect it isn't the same as updating. | 07:06 |
| codyman | DarthFrog: ok.. this is weird... if I type in modprobe ndiswrapper it says that ndiswrapper is not found.. but if i type in ndiswrapper its found no problem.. | 07:06 |
| PhxGuy | ok well ill try that.... Dillweed any thoughts on USB Bluetooth Keyboard??? | 07:06 |
| Dillweed | LBM, you can manually add the resolution into your xorg.conf if needed | 07:06 |
| Dillweed | PhxGuy, sorry man I don't have any experience with bluetooth | 07:07 |
| DarthFrog | codyman: No idea, sorry. I've never used ndiswrapper. | 07:07 |

| Dillweed | LBM, ubuntu has the least amount of configuring that I've found (for a debian based distro) but it still means that often it is necessary to do it to get it working. | 07:18 |

| madstop | anyway, ubuntu's gnome is great gnome, ubuntu's kde is fantastic (I never liked kde before); I'm hoping for a ubunutu optimized xfce next! | 07:32 |

| madstop | Jdahl, what I can't understand though about the "technically skilled people" though, is how you all have the patience for such poor design as those gnome panels?

| sic| | Xappe, in your fstab where you would normally put ext3, put reiserfs and it will mount fine | 07:44 |
| Xappe | but there are no reiserfs drivers for windows at all, like read support or something (could be nify if things go wrong with my linux) | 07:45 |
| Fl-i-nT | Blissex, could that be a problem if i only have 16548k free mem? | 07:45 |

| ditzah | Xappe: there is a plugin for Total Commander that can read linux partitions | 07:47 |
| ditzah | Xappe: from Windows I mean | 07:47 |
| Fl-i-nT | Blissex, could you tell me where to find that log | 07:47 |

| Xappe | ditzah, ok. and there are some drivers fr ext3 too iirc | 07:47 |

| Blissex | Fl-i-nT: are you logging in using a display manager? If so, probably your log is '~/.xsession-errors' | 07:49 |

| madstop | it doesn't look like windows. | 08:11 |
| DarthFrog | arek: KDE is GPL-compatible. | 08:11 |
| odie5533 | KDE reminded me a bit much of windows... | 08:11 |
| arek | it does | 08:11 |
| Myrtti | there is a menu editor coming up soonfor Gnome | 08:11 |
| odie5533 | like a cheap takeoff... | 08:11 |
| madstop | unless you want it to. | 08:11 |
| Quinn_Storm | kde looks like what you want, is gpl-compat, is Free Software (wouldn't be in Debian otherwise), and news for ya, Linux isn't GNU either...you want Hurd for that | 08:11 |
| arek | DarthFrog: ??? is it gpl or not? | 08:11 |
| arek | its not | 08:11 |
| LinuxJones | Myrtti, yeah it's being worked on | 08:11 |
| sandwitch | qt is not gpl compatible | 08:11 |
| DarthFrog | arek: A lot of it is GPL. | 08:12 |
| kent | snk00sj, change the "gid=XXX" to the gid you have. Run the command "id" in a terminal, and it should print your gid. | 08:12 |
| zenwhen | only windows qt is not gpl compatible | 08:12 |
| arek | yah | 08:12 |
| arek | rubbish | 08:12 |
| Quinn_Storm | actually I think they finally are gonna release windows qt under gpl | 08:12 |
| Quinn_Storm | but I could be wrong | 08:12 |
| DarthFrog | sandwitch: yes, qt is GPL-compatible. It's been annointed by St. IGNUcius himself. | 08:12 |
| arek | windows gtk is gpl | 08:12 |
| sandwitch | that 's new | 08:12 |
| sandwitch | happy to hear that | 08:12 |
| DarthFrog | sandwitch: No, not new. | 08:13 |
| sandwitch | to me it is :) | 08:13 |
| odie5533 | gpl that good eh? | 08:13 |
| DarthFrog | sandwitch: it's a poor day when you don't learn something new. :-) | 08:13 |
| odie5533 | Why would one care if its gpl or not? I don't see how it matters for everyday use | 08:13 |
| DarthFrog | odie5533: It's a religious issue. :-) | 08:13 |
| odie5533 | Ah (looks into this new cult) :D | 08:13 |
| DarthFrog | odie5533: Not new. :-) | 08:14 |
| arek | odie5533: yes GPL rocks, anything not fully gpl should not be used in linux world | 08:14 |
| odie5533 | what about Java? why'd ubuntu make it so hard to install? | 08:14 |
| madstop | I don't know why it's an issue at all; depends on what you want to do, not just on the esthetics, or look and feel or whatever. | 08:14 |
| DarthFrog | arek: Whoa, there big fellow. That's going way too far. | 08:14 |
| sandwitch | hmz lemme browse your harddisk arek | 08:14 |
| odie5533 | One of the main reasons I'm on Linux is I hear the Java programming is better here ;) | 08:14 |
| SeeleyUSMC | Woo! My MD5sum checks okay with the hoary install this time...time to burn baby burn! | 08:14 |
| LinuxJones | SeeleyUSMC, :) | 08:15 |

| DarthFrog | SeeleyUSMC: Good luck. Welcome to the Light Side of The Force. | 08:15 |
| arek | sandwitch: i dont have to all i got is gpl | 08:15 |

| Kikyo1 | I'm having a problem, and could need some assistance: | 08:20 |
| Kikyo1 | I have two .AVI files, and two .SUB files... When I run them in Totem the video and sound is good, but I can't run subtitles there (atleast not that I know of.) And in MPlayer the subtitles are ugly, the video won't "stretch" in fullscreen, and the sound doesn't work. And when I tried Kaffeine it asked for subtitles when I loaded the videos, but, the subtitles didn't show when playing the movie. (Although the video and audio were great.) | 08:20 |
| Kikyo1 | Any tips on how to get this movie running? :) | 08:21 |

| klo | no idea | 08:21 |

| madstop | xine rocks | 08:22 |
| zenrox | Kikyo1, yep | 08:22 |
| Kikyo1 | Hm.. would the w32codecs affect the subtitles though? | 08:22 |

| DarthFrog | sandwitch: Just the article. Don't bother with the comments. | 08:25 |
| sandwitch | so if the kde-devs allow all of qt is gpl ? | 08:26 |
| Kikyo1 | Hm.. I installed gxine but the subtitles still won't show.. perhaps there's a problem with my fonts? | 08:27 |
| eyequeue | isn't that up to trolltech? | 08:28 |
| Slackman | sandwitch, qt is controlled by trolltech | 08:28 |
| Fl-i-nT | Reading the Manuals is abit hard hehe i only understand about 70% of all mentioned there | 08:28 |
| Slackman | sandwitch, it wasn't originally gpl...but now its dual license | 08:28 |

| DarthFrog | Fl-i-nT: You will learn in time, young padawan. | 08:29 |

| DarthFrog | sandwitch: Yes. | 08:29 |
| sandwitch | that's cool | 08:29 |
| Amaranth | You have to pay trolltech a license fee to make non-GPL'ed apps with it. GTK+ doesn't have that restriction, being LGPL. | 08:30 |
| sandwitch | i didn't know that | 08:30 |
| sandwitch | I domnt care about non-gpl | 08:30 |
| === sean_ [~sean@68.205.198.0] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| sandwitch | so that 's good news | 08:31 |
| DarthFrog | sandwitch: RMS prefers Gnome, because it's a GNU project. That seems natural enough. And he's openly stated that KDE & QT are fully free software. | 08:31 |
| zenrox | why would any one use a progam with the name troll in it | 08:31 |
| odie5533 | If I sell free software that I made entirely myself, and sell it under GPL, can people resell it? | 08:31 |
| Kikyo1 | "ichi.cd1.lng.avi" -> "ichi.cd1.lng.idx" -> "ichi.cd1.lng.sub" | 08:31 |
| Kikyo1 | "ichi.cd2.lng.avi" -> "ichi.cd2.lng.idx" -> "ichi.cd2.lng.sub" | 08:31 |
| Kikyo1 | These are the files for the movie; and the only media player that has shown the subtitles to me has been MPlayer.. gxine, totem and kaffeine didnt work. Any tips on why? I'd preferably not play the movie with MPlayer. :) Thanks in advance. | 08:31 |

| Amaranth | odie5533: You sell it to one person and they can give it away to everyone else for free, yes. | 08:32 |

| sandwitch | well i'm glad that qt is gpl still won't use it but i'm glad :) | 08:33 |
| DarthFrog | odie5533: The GPL doesn't work in all cases. | 08:33 |
| Kikyo1 | Could anyone please help me a little? Sorry for being a newbic-bother. | 08:33 |
| odie5533 | Yeah, I wish it did... | 08:33 |

| odie5533 | It's really meant for fully free software, which offers donations but doesn't force them I guess | 08:33 |

| DarthFrog | sandwitch: That's OK. At least you're making a choice based on correct info. | 08:33 |

| Slackman | Amaranth, yeh true | 08:34 |
| Kikyo1 | I have three files per "cd" of the movie. cd1.avi cd1.idx cd1.sub and the sabe for cd2.. when I play with totem/gxine/kaffeine the video and audio is great, but the subtitles won't show. And in MPlayer the subtitles show (although they are bad) but the audio and video sucks :P | 08:34 |
| odie5533 | If I release free software under GPL, can semeone change my source code, compile, and then sell only the compilation not under GPL? | 08:35 |
| Amaranth | I can stand doing a little C work, hate C++, and love doing everything in Python if I can so GTK is best for me. | 08:35 |
| DarthFrog | odie5533: No. The GPL is designed to specifically prevent that. | 08:35 |
| eyequeue | OddAbe19: they can not lock up what you have freed | 08:35 |
| sandwitch | hmz maybe you miss alib for xine ? | 08:35 |
| DarthFrog | odie5533: The BSD license permits it, though. | 08:35 |
| odie5533 | Ah ok, thats good | 08:35 |

| DarthFrog | odie5533: The BSD developers want their code to be used. The GPL developers want to increase the amount of free software available. | 08:37 |
| Slackman | Amaranth, is GTK+ any more mature now? when i first tried to use it I struggled but it was a long time ago | 08:37 |
| Kikyo1 | Darthfrog, any tips of why the subtitles aren't showing up ? | 08:37 |
| Amaranth | Slackman: err, I've only been using it since 2.2 | 08:38 |

| nineBALL | desrt: it worked on 3 other linux distros LIVE CD's | 09:42 |
| desrt | nineBALL; do you happen to know the name of the kernel module? | 09:42 |
| zenrox | hda0 drspin | 09:43 |
| arek | PacoBCN: check your php mod | 09:43 |
| nineBALL | desrt: no, but i think the problem is that it wasnt connected when I installed Ubuntu | 09:43 |
| desrt | zenrox; hd0 is correct | 09:43 |
| zenrox | desrt, your right | 09:43 |
| desrt | nineBALL; even stil, the notplug system should be able to deal with it :/ | 09:43 |
| zenrox | i just read the manuel | 09:43 |
| DarthFrog | MCooke: In April. | 09:43 |
| nineBALL | Is there anyway to create a new connection, like in Windoze? | 09:43 |
| PacoBCN | no, now it doesn't even show me html files | 09:43 |
| drspin | so why can't I write? | 09:44 |
| desrt | nineBALL; not as such. lemme see | 09:44 |
| slept | drspin : maybe the live-cd has an grub-install aswell, you should try that | 09:44 |
| Psoulocybe | i'm so fucking close to reinstalling w/ the new kubunut release | 09:44 |
| PacoBCN | I think it's some kind of default program problem | 09:44 |
| zenrox | Psoulocybe, thats the easyest way any way | 09:44 |
| zenrox | lol | 09:44 |
| desrt | nineBALL; become root | 09:44 |
| drspin | I've gotten this far before ;) -- and I have tried the LiveCD grub-install also ;) | 09:44 |
| Psoulocybe | seriously | 09:44 |
| desrt | nineBALL; then go through this list: | 09:44 |
| desrt | catc.ko kaweth.ko pegasus.ko rtl8150.ko usbnet.ko | 09:44 |
| desrt | modprobe catac | 09:44 |
| zenrox | Psoulocybe, my opion ya | 09:44 |
| desrt | one at a time | 09:44 |
| DarthFrog | drspin: You could create a GRUB boot floppy. | 09:45 |
| zenrox | Psoulocybe, make shure you make seprate partions on for / and the other for /home | 09:45 |
| MCooke | Ta. I am evaluating Ubuntu for shipping to S.Africa (and other places) on several thousand refurbished PCs as part of a charity. Currently Ubuntu looks like the best single CD distro to use. | 09:45 |
| drspin | DarthFrog, one problem -- no floppy drive... | 09:45 |
| PacoBCN | how do I remove all the MIME type associations? | 09:45 |
| nineBALL | thanks. i will try that. | 09:45 |
| desrt | nineBALL; then look in dmesg and see which one is correct (it should be obvious) | 09:45 |
| Psoulocybe | zenrox, huh? | 09:45 |
| zenrox | Psoulocybe, that way you dont louse setting in your /home dir | 09:45 |
| DarthFrog | drspin: That is a bit of a problem.:-) | 09:45 |

| zenrox | Psoulocybe, ya and every time you have to reinstall you wont louse setting for progams and louse any saved data in you /home partion | 09:49 |
| mjr | ol4l, configure it to only serve eth1; by default it wants to serve all interfaces, IIRC. And by the way, for a home network, dnsmasq might be handier. | 09:49 |
