| === Lucien [~Lucien@cust.95.100.adsl.cistron.nl] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| isam | this could be an FAQ : I have Sarge, and liked Ubuntu .. changing the sources.list would do the job ? | 12:36 |
| William_Cain | I have a question about the ATI driver. | 12:36 |
| isam | or at least mostly ? | 12:36 |
| munki | hello there William | 12:36 |
| |QuaD- | DarthFrog: ok, has development on it started? | 12:36 |
| PacoBCN | munki, thanks for the tip. Now it opens at least the html files but not the php | 12:36 |
| PacoBCN | I always used http://localhost/ | 12:36 |
| DarthFrog | SeeleyUSMC: If all that is there, you're a happy camper. Then you can get on with configuring the networking. | 12:36 |
| PacoBCN | but doesn't seem to work any longer | 12:36 |
| SeeleyUSMC | Alrighty! BBL - Going to attempt :) | 12:36 |
| munki | PacoBCN , that wasn't' a tip it was a question.. | 12:36 |
| DarthFrog | |QuaD-: I doubt it since Hoary isn't released yet. | 12:36 |
| PacoBCN | PacoBCN, I know, but it helped :D | 12:37 |
| knewt | PacoBCN: check that /etc/hosts contains an entry mapping 127.0.0.1 to localhost | 12:37 |

| munki | PacoBCN : heh.. how would you else open the files on your server ? | 12:37 |
| William_Cain | When I first installed Ubuntu, not even screensavers got frame rates above 10fps. I then installed the ATI driver, and everything worked fine. I got smooth graphics. However, after a few days, everything went back to the same old slowness... | 12:37 |
| PacoBCN | munki, http://localhost/ | 12:37 |
| William_Cain | Has anyone else experienced the same? | 12:37 |
| munki | oh.. PacoBCN check that localhost is mapped to 127.0.0.1 | 12:38 |
| yyc747 | does the preview release of hoary have kde 3.4 (kubuntu, of course)? | 12:38 |
| isam | William_Cain: are you still using the ATI driver in X configuration ? | 12:38 |
| ^thehatsrule^ | did you update xfree? | 12:38 |
| DarthFrog | yyc747: Yes. | 12:38 |
| PacoBCN | munki, anyway, that's not the problem now, it's that it doesn't want to compile php files | 12:38 |
| William_Cain | Perhaps I should have a look. | 12:38 |
| smo | PacoBCN: That behavior's usually apache missing the AddType and/or LoadModule lines in it's config | 12:38 |
| === _patrick [~patrick@cpc2-ldry1-6-0-cust81.blfs.cable.ntl.com] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| PacoBCN | smo, that's what I'm thinking also | 12:39 |
| yyc747 | PacoBCN: php files aren't compiled... do you mean "interpret"? | 12:39 |
| === _patrick is now known as _phoenix3051_ | ||
| PacoBCN | smo, but weird, since I didn't touch anything | 12:39 |
| munki | PacoBCN , It shouldn't compile php files, but open them :) You did install the apache-php5 candidate ? | 12:39 |
| PacoBCN | yyc747, yes, that's what I mean | 12:39 |
| ^thehatsrule^ | you know where you configure the proxy/socks server in GNOME, is it only for GNOME or is it system-wide? | 12:39 |
| William_Cain | Uhm, where is the X configuration file located? | 12:39 |
| munki | /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 12:39 |
| ^thehatsrule^ | /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 | 12:39 |
| isam | a quicky .. my system was installed as warty, but I moved (by apting, changing sources.list) to debian from it because of lack of proper KDE support.. and now with KDE 3.4, and Xorg I want to get back to Ubuntu | 12:40 |
| William_Cain | I just found it as you were typing, hehe. | 12:40 |
| ^thehatsrule^ | depends on what youre using ;p | 12:40 |
| isam | will it work if I change back sources.list ? | 12:40 |
| PacoBCN | php5? no, always used 4 here, didn't know 5 was available | 12:40 |
| ^thehatsrule^ | lol... ver 5 has been out for a while | 12:40 |
| PacoBCN | ok, wait | 12:40 |
| munki | :) installed any php-server ? | 12:40 |
| PacoBCN | seems that some packages got removed | 12:40 |
| mjr | ^thehatsrule^, only gnome | 12:40 |
| William_Cain | Would not having the folder called XF86Config-4 count as a bad thing? | 12:40 |
| munki | apache think it's nice, to have php integration installed | 12:41 |
| ^thehatsrule^ | mjr, so that means i cant use flux? | 12:41 |
| PacoBCN | I'm upgrading tons of files everyday and sometimes it makes changes I didn't allow | 12:41 |
| munki | PacoBCN : read the screen ? ;) | 12:41 |

| codyman | what location would i add to my sources.list file for restricted/marilliat depositories FOR amd64 kubuntu | 02:01 |
| Kate | how is everyone? | 02:01 |

| Kate | doesnt it? | 02:02 |
| ^thehatsrule^ | it should... | 02:02 |
| LinuxJones | ephemeral, sure it does | 02:02 |
| mjr | codyman, you might try http://debian.video.free.fr/ | 02:02 |
| codyman | ephermal: it doesn't come with kde but it definately comes with gnome... | 02:02 |
| SeeleyUSMC | crimsun: My only connection to the Internet is wireless. It works on windows which is what I'm using now. ath_pci and ath_hal are loaded modules, hardware configure shows that I have an Atheros AR5212 802.11abg NIC (rev 01)... | 02:03 |
| codyman | mjr: thanks | 02:03 |

| optiks | hi. I'm trying to get x running, and I keep getting 'no devices found' error .. I've ran the 'configurer' quite a few times and have had no luck ... my gfx card is a PCI-e nvidia 6600gt .. has anyone got any ideas as to what could be the problem? | 02:06 |

| ^thehatsrule^ | i read something of 6600gt on the forums | 02:08 |
| optiks | should I try xorg ? | 02:08 |
| optiks | it came with xf86 ... after installing ubuntu-desktop | 02:08 |
| ^thehatsrule^ | did you edit xf86config-4? thats executed first | 02:08 |
| daniels | optiks: are you running warty or hoary? | 02:08 |
| optiks | yeah ... there's not that much to edit though. everything looks fine. | 02:08 |
| optiks | warty | 02:08 |

| ^thehatsrule^ | Marble2, i know in windows, you can open a config for any codec... and change the quality | 02:09 |

| njan | username, if you need something else, you want to pick the package for it. People don't just buy a photo editor because it's a photo editor. They buy photoshop because it's photoshop.. or paintshop pro beacuse it's paintshop pro. You can't just make those choices for them. | 02:46 |

| jintxo | odie5533, so then use ctrl-alt fX to go back to the original terminal you ran X from and export DISPLAY=localhost:1, that should make you able to run x progrmas on the X server you just ran | 02:56 |

| geneo93 | floresg: yes hoary has kde 3.4 | 04:35 |
| GammaRay | Xenguy: kde? how do you figure? | 04:35 |
| odie5533 | It isnt liking it | 04:35 |
| Xenguy | GammaRay: MDK was KDE by default IIRC; Ubu is GNOME by default | 04:36 |
| GammaRay | mandrake supports kde and gnome about the same in my opinion | 04:36 |
| Xenguy | GammaRay: I don't use it, I just know that when MDK was originally released, it focused on KDE | 04:36 |
| GammaRay | mdk used to be "redhat w/ kde" but no longer | 04:36 |
| geneo93 | mandrake give you more install options | 04:37 |

| IcedKiwi | k im back | 04:37 |
| ^thehatsrule^ | bleh, both have its uses | 04:37 |
| ax75 | well in MDK, the GNOME is a lookalike of KDE but doesn't do what the KDE desktop does | 04:37 |
| ax75 | they only make it look the same as KDE, but doesn't even work | 04:38 |
| regeya | distributions should leave the desktops alone, really. | 04:38 |
| IcedKiwi | what is the difference between GNOME and KDE? | 04:38 |
| regeya | mdk butchers gnome, redhat butchers kde. it shouldn't be necessary. | 04:38 |
| JDigital | GNOME is better | 04:38 |
| GammaRay | huh? I never thought they were trying to make it look like kde.. and the unified theme they use looks like neigther | 04:38 |
| IcedKiwi | lol | 04:38 |
| regeya | JDigital... | 04:38 |
| regeya | it's a matter of opinion. personally, when I use GNOME, I think it looks nice but it feels a bit like MacOS 8. | 04:39 |
| odie5533 | is there any other /dev/ for audio besides dsp? | 04:39 |
| IcedKiwi | ive only got GNOME so i cant really comment | 04:39 |
| IcedKiwi | there are worse things on this planet than a MacOS | 04:39 |
| regeya | when some people use KDE, they feel overwhelmed by (admittedly) bad design and (admittedly) way too many features just right there in your face. | 04:40 |
| GammaRay | regeya: I just don't agree that mdk butchers gnome | 04:40 |
| jdub | oh dudes | 04:40 |
| IcedKiwi | personally, i want to try MacOSX | 04:40 |

| JDigital | wow | 04:46 |
| JDigital | lots of people whose names are like jd* | 04:46 |
| maxchee | gnome v. kde is lame. I am just hoping that they would share the same drawing library, audio sink etc., so that we have less libraries and dependancies to maintain | 04:47 |
| UdeS-ppc | GammaRay: it tells me package 'xserver-xfree86' is not installed and no info is available | 04:47 |
| GammaRay | maxchee: I perfer smooth operation and configuration to "a mess" and I'm not that convinced that gnome really is that unconfigurable | 04:47 |
| ax75 | if kde and gnome unified to become one, then it'll be the ultimate desktop solution | 04:47 |
| crimsun | UdeS-ppc: Hoary? | 04:47 |

| UdeS-ppc | yes | 04:47 |
| crimsun | UdeS-ppc: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 04:47 |

| nicedreams | crimsun: why did it used to work in alsa? did they change something in preview 1? | 05:32 |

| JDahl | MMond, maybe you forgot to install libapache2-mod-php4? that's a typical mistake | 05:52 |
| IcedKiwi | its got everything but a competent computer shop | 05:52 |
| crimsun | tsume: ,,telnet localhost 22'' does what? | 05:52 |
| maxchee | dampjam: this is probably safer: apt-get --reinstall install xserver-xorg | 05:52 |
| linux_galore | IcedKiwi: they still have the big water feature in the middle or did they dump that | 05:52 |
| maxchee | dampjam: this is probably safer: apt-get --reinstall install xorg-common | 05:52 |

| tsume | crimsun: hangs | 05:52 |

| IcedKiwi | they have one at carindale though | 05:52 |
| odie5533 | Does anyone know how to run gnome and kde at the same time? | 05:52 |
| JDahl | MMond, there shouldn't be anything to it... just install apache2 and libapache2-mod-php4 and you're set to go | 05:52 |
| tsume | there is no ipv4 address assigned to localhost by install default | 05:53 |
| linux_galore | IcedKiwi: must have removed it | 05:53 |

| IcedKiwi | what does it mean when there is a yellow background to someones text? | 05:53 |
| crimsun | tsume: what does the following do: sudo /etc/init.d/ssh restart | 05:54 |
| MMond | I was hoping it would had been that easy.. almost Windows style - checking off a few things on Synaptic and I'm good to go.. with apache it was pretty simply, but there seem to be a lot more troubles now that I've installed a few more mods.. I'm getting nasty port errors and whatnot - and I haven't even touched anything everything is at defauly-- or should be.. | 05:54 |

| atek | how come when i try to install a plugin for mozilla i get that i couldnt get to E:? | 05:54 |
| tsume | I'm curious why sshd doesn't want to listen on 127.1 22 | 05:54 |
| Redwraith111 | nothing.. but it says device busy | 05:55 |
| linux_galore | maxchee: opengl is in direct competition to Direct X dri is a low level render option think hardware and xrender is a software render option | 05:55 |
| Redwraith111 | Coudnt open audio | 05:55 |
| tsume | it does in fact listen on 192.168.1.3 | 05:55 |
| Redwraith111 | check that your sound card is installed properly etc | 05:55 |
| IcedKiwi | whats that number? | 05:55 |
| maxchee | linux_galore: so xrender pairs up with dri and mesa pairs up with native open driver? | 05:55 |
| crimsun | Redwraith111: what was the output of ''pgrep esd,, ? | 05:55 |
| JDahl | MMond, I've never had problems... but I havent had both apache1.3 and apache2 installed on the same time. The "no-brainer" solution could be to purge everything related to apache and start over with only apache2.0 | 05:55 |
| crimsun | tsume: please paste me the output of ,,ip a'' (sanitise if you're paranoid) | 05:56 |
| linux_galore | maxchee: well dri is often not activated with some drivers its built in.....mesa is just another lib | 05:56 |
| crimsun | (in private or in #flood) | 05:56 |
| tsume | crimsun: minute, let me ask another question | 05:56 |
| tsume | is sshd installed by default? | 05:56 |
| crimsun | no. | 05:56 |
| crimsun | you need to install openssh-server. | 05:57 |

| crimsun | Redwraith111: ok, good. Now please do this in a Terminal: cat /proc/asound/modules | 05:58 |

| Redwraith111 | my onboard doesnt seem to want to work and it was default | 06:02 |

| Redwraith111 | u | 06:04 |
| Redwraith111 | about gaim switchboard errors | 06:04 |
| Redwraith111 | i was runing debian two days ago | 06:04 |
| Redwraith111 | and got them | 06:04 |
| Redwraith111 | with firestarter running | 06:04 |
| crimsun | "switchboard"? | 06:04 |
| MMond | JDahl: http://127.0.0.1/apache2-default/, this seems to be the address for the local server, what would be the absolute path for the files, within my harddrive? | 06:04 |
| Redwraith111 | now ubuntu is doing it too | 06:04 |
| JDahl | MMond, the files you see when you type "http://localhost" in firefox are stored in ~www-data... but you should test stuff in ~/public_html | 06:04 |
| Redwraith111 | and there is no firewall | 06:04 |
| linux_galore | ?? @ switchboard | 06:04 |
| crimsun | Redwraith111: ok, let's tackle the sound first. | 06:04 |
| Redwraith111 | nvm.. they only go when u arent connected enough | 06:05 |
| Redwraith111 | see you on the flip | 06:05 |
| linux_galore | <-- on gaim | 06:05 |
| crimsun | micmur: what happens if you use alsa directly with mplayer? | 06:05 |
| Redwraith111 | i dont use sudo because i set up the root account and just su | 06:05 |
| IcedKiwi-im | neway, linux_galore, u said u have a spare external modem? | 06:05 |
| micmur | crimsun:how would I do that? | 06:05 |
| JDahl | MMond, of course you need to create ~/public_html and make it readable for all | 06:05 |
| linux_galore | IcedKiwi yeah gathering dust | 06:05 |
| Zepp | How can i use xmms with the kde sound system. kde just takes over the sound device and nothing else can play until its idle time hits and it lets go :/ | 06:05 |

| Redwraith111 | like i saw the command but im really knew | 06:08 |
| aspuru | (same or similar problem) | 06:08 |
| JDahl | MMond, maybe first find a simple php test script, and make sure it works? It shouldnt be hard | 06:08 |

| Redwraith111 | Well crimsun when your done I would appreciate your expertise | 06:16 |

| Redwraith111 | Plus I like worship you now | 06:16 |
| micmur | sudo gmplayer -ao alsa some file doesn't work. It open but still distorted sound (playing at 2x speed) | 06:16 |
| IcedKiwi-im | wouldnt you need file compatibility, but for a printer? or something | 06:16 |
| linux_galore | micmur: trick I have with mplayer is to first run it as root then I go sudo cp /root/./mplayer* /home/user_name then sudo chown -R user_name /home/user_name/./mplayer | 06:17 |

| Redwraith111 | lol guys.. here we go again | 06:17 |
| Redwraith111 | yesterday i spent 2 hours setting up my ati drivers on deb | 06:17 |
| crimsun | linux_galore: whoa, no need for all that. | 06:17 |
| Redwraith111 | will i have to do what i did here? | 06:17 |
| crimsun | Redwraith111: using fglrx? | 06:18 |
| Redwraith111 | yeah | 06:18 |
| Zepp | linux_galore, ya I will see. | 06:18 |
| JDahl | MMond, I was answering a few emails... from what you describe it seems that php is not installed | 06:18 |
| crimsun | Redwraith111: much simpler. Read the relevant section of http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/BinaryDriverHowto | 06:18 |
| linux_galore | crimsun: thats not all of it then I had to copy the /etc/mplayer/codecs file to /home/user_name/codecs.conf | 06:18 |
| Redwraith111 | printing was a HELL of alot easier too | 06:18 |
| === IcedKiwi-im is now known as IcedKiwi | ||
| MMond | JDahl: Seems so . . . plain off, what files are needed to get php on apache? | 06:18 |
| IcedKiwi | ive spent about 10 or so hours trying to find the right thingy to make my winmodem work in Linux | 06:18 |
| Zepp | I think this computer needs a faster cpu haha or more ram, or both | 06:19 |
| crimsun | linux_galore: not sure why you're even messing with all that. | 06:19 |
| Zepp | kde is a bit heavy on it. but oh well | 06:19 |
| linux_galore | crimsun: then it all worked fine........plays anything as a user | 06:19 |
| crimsun | micmur: please close all instances of mplayer | 06:19 |
| linux_galore | crimsun: because mplayer wont built the ./mplayer stuff properly as a user | 06:19 |
| IcedKiwi | and nothing to show for it, either | 06:19 |
| linux_galore | built = setup | 06:20 |
| Redwraith111 | can i use xf86config to allow my comp to use higher res's? | 06:20 |
| JDahl | MMond, first please create ~/public_html and store an html file there... then use "http://localhost/~username/file.html" as the url in firefox.. that way at least you know where to store files. Otherwise type "cd ~www-data" like I mentioned | 06:20 |
| micmur | crimsun:done | 06:20 |
| crimsun | micmur: now do this: pkill esd ; pkill polypaudio ; mplayer -ao alsa ~/Desktop/Music/"u2 - how to dismantle an atomic bomb/01.u2-vertigo-rns.mp3" | 06:21 |
| JDahl | MMond, as for php, you just need to write "sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-php4" | 06:21 |
| linux_galore | crap Im dont to 56k/s on this Kubuntu download | 06:21 |

| hippyhuffinpaint | how did you do it | 10:14 |
| memcmeme | apt-get install firefox | 10:14 |
| memcmeme | it needs updating | 10:14 |
| hippyhuffinpaint | okay i did that | 10:14 |

| hippyhuffinpaint | after i attempted installing 1.0.2 | 10:15 |
| Beuno | Ive had a couple of debian before | 10:15 |
| memcmeme | pablo928 you can to the right place :) | 10:15 |
| Beuno | its really the best distro | 10:15 |
| memcmeme | although if you have Broadband I would reccomend | 10:15 |
| Beuno | just a pain in the ass for some things | 10:15 |

| hippyhuffinpaint | mozilla-firefox starts to load a browser then it closes | 10:16 |
| Beuno | well, they got kubuntu out there, si | 10:16 |

| memcmeme | just do apt-get install kubuntu desktop from your normal ubuntu intallan | 10:16 |
| hippyhuffinpaint | i just started using kubuntu today | 10:16 |
| memcmeme | and you will have KDE desktop tricked out for ubuntu | 10:16 |

| hippyhuffinpaint | from mandrake 10.1 | 10:16 |
| Beuno | I got kde 3.2 on it | 10:16 |
| Beuno | just want 3.4 now | 10:17 |
| hippyhuffinpaint | thats what i had on mandrake | 10:17 |
| onkarshinde | hippyhuffinpaint: How is your experience with kubnutu and KDE 3.4? | 10:17 |
| hippyhuffinpaint | i got 3.4 | 10:17 |
| hippyhuffinpaint | its been so far so good, well except for not getting mozila-firefox working | 10:18 |
| Beuno | aaah | 10:18 |
| Beuno | got it working | 10:18 |

| onkarshinde | I would like to recommend Ubuntu to my friend. But he is KDE lover. Any plus/minus for KUbuntu? | 10:18 |
| hippyhuffinpaint | i had it working | 10:18 |
| pepsi | memcmeme, will it break gnome to install it? | 10:18 |
| hippyhuffinpaint | the 1.0.2 | 10:18 |
| hippyhuffinpaint | but that dont work now | 10:18 |
| memcmeme | not at all | 10:18 |
| pepsi | which one will be default? | 10:18 |
| pepsi | and how would i pick? | 10:18 |
| memcmeme | just make sure you leave choose GDM when you get asked between GDM and KDM | 10:18 |
| memcmeme | initially it will still default to Gnome | 10:19 |
| memcmeme | but you can tell it which on to default to | 10:19 |
| pepsi | hrm | 10:19 |
| memcmeme | for example I have mine default to KDE | 10:19 |
| memcmeme | but GDM is a LOT better than KDM | 10:19 |
| _Demian_ | how do I install a rpm package | 10:19 |
| _Demian_ | ? | 10:19 |
| memcmeme | I don't know that you can | 10:19 |
| memcmeme | just get the tarball version of it | 10:19 |
| memcmeme | or check your apt repositories | 10:19 |
| memcmeme | go into synaptic | 10:20 |
| deFrysk | memcmeme, kdm works better with kde | 10:20 |
| memcmeme | then make sure you have universe and multiverse selected | 10:20 |
| onkarshinde | _Demian_: I don't think you can install rpm on a Debain based distro | 10:20 |
| Beuno | rpm is on redhat | 10:20 |
| Beuno | we got .deb's here | 10:20 |
| deFrysk | memcmeme, gdm better with gnome | 10:20 |
| _Demian_ | hmmmz | 10:20 |
| pepsi | _Demian_, ive never used it, but man alien | 10:20 |
| Beuno | or even better, apt-get! | 10:20 |
| memcmeme | deFrysk yes, but if you like being able to log into the WM as root GDM makes the process of configuring both of them more painless | 10:20 |
| memcmeme | and I have found that they both work quite well | 10:20 |
| memcmeme | its a matter of preference :) | 10:20 |
| hippyhuffinpaint | anyone know what i could do to make a program quit crashing | 10:21 |
| pepsi | dont run it | 10:21 |
| memcmeme | its always worth checking for a later version | 10:21 |

| Diablo-D3 | sabmoc|zombie: yup | 11:16 |
| Diablo-D3 | cef: so? | 11:16 |
| johnl | cool | 11:16 |
| Diablo-D3 | cef: my cd burner can do it | 11:16 |
| cef | Diablo-D3: so you can't burn them at less than 16x.. just something to keep in mind | 11:16 |
| jdub | sabmoc|zombie: fairly likely we'll do a similar thing for breezy | 11:16 |
| sabmoc|zombie | JDub fantastic | 11:17 |
| Diablo-D3 | cef: that isnt exactly it | 11:17 |
| Diablo-D3 | cef: I cant burn _faster_ than 12x with this cd | 11:17 |
| Diablo-D3 | software locks me out from doing so | 11:17 |
| Diablo-D3 | its a 52x48x52 drive, btw | 11:17 |
| cef | Diablo-D3: that may be because the burner won't write to a non-high speed cdrw | 11:18 |
| cef | at greater than 12x (next step up is 16x) | 11:18 |
| Diablo-D3 | cef: no, it will only write to what the cd says it is | 11:18 |

| mirak | of | 11:19 |
| mirak | it always crashes | 11:19 |
| Diablo-D3 | why cant gnome just clone konq | 11:19 |
| mirak | for whatever reason | 11:20 |
| cef | Diablo-D3: just saying if/when you get a 16x cd-rw, you will only be able to write to it in your burner at 16x or better. any less, and it "will not work" | 11:20 |
| mirak | I like gnome desktop, but nautilus is not good | 11:20 |
| Diablo-D3 | cef: but.... why would I? | 11:20 |
| Diablo-D3 | I can play quake3 and burn at 52x with no underuns | 11:20 |
| mirak | I am thinking in usong konqueror instead of nautilus even inside of gnome | 11:20 |
| cef | Diablo-D3: eg: using the disk to transfer from work to home and back again? esp if the other burner doesn't do greater than 12x | 11:21 |

| llama32 | i tried on about a 1.7gb partition and it ran out of space... | 12:54 |
| apokryphos | llama32: it all depends on how much you're looking to install | 12:54 |
| jintxo | mercurus, that's your problem. Are you using the drivers in ubuntu or downloaded yourself from nvidia.com? | 12:54 |
| mercurus | mental note to self: don't install nVidia binaries and then install the nvidia-glx package. | 12:54 |
| SirFred | mercurus: Mouse preferences didn't have any reference to cursors. | 12:55 |
| mercurus | SirFred: aye, do a search for pointer.png or similar ... | 12:55 |
| apokryphos | llama32: I think around 2gb is the minimum for the root partition. | 12:55 |
| bij | i've installed a fresh array 7 release of hoary... i'm new to ubuntu... i've used kanotix before.... how is the root mode handled in ubuntu... when i write down "su" and then enter my normal password i cannot go into the rootshell | 12:55 |
| jintxo | mercurus, exactly, that happened to me in the past, the nvidia-glx package put a startup script in /etc/init.d and it was messing up my GLX setup, took me a while to figure out :-p | 12:55 |

| apokryphos | loaded: did you follow the instructions as suggested on the site? | 12:56 |
| jintxo | bij, if you want a root shell run "sudo su" | 12:56 |
| SirFred | mercurus: But they went away some time ago. They never come back, afaik | 12:56 |
| mercurus | jinxto: aye, I'll uninstall the nVidia sourced binary and re-install nvidia-glx | 12:56 |
| loaded | apokryphos i don't understand what they mean, and cannot run anything unless under root login. is this normal? | 12:56 |
| apokryphos | loaded: no | 12:57 |
| bij | oki i'll test it | 12:57 |
| jintxo | bij, by default root has no password and can't log in, everything is handled via "sudo" unless you set a password for root, then you can log in | 12:57 |

| SmokingFire | ooh I think thats Rythmnbox Fl-i-nT | 01:40 |
| jintxo | SmokingFire, you could always put "bttv" in your /etc/modules to get it to load on boot. if you need to pass card=X to the module on load then you will have to create edit a file in /etc/modutils with "options bttv card=x" and run "update-modules" | 01:40 |

| crimsun | madel: with the latter choice, you'll have to run ,,sudo update-grub'' afterward | 01:44 |
| kosmos | madel, just pu it in zhe kernel line, vga=0x318 for 1200x... for example | 01:44 |

| zenrox | mellinux, yes but you got to do it manuley | 06:53 |
| mjr | mellinux, the X server can do that, but you need to configure it manually | 06:53 |
| JDahl | mellinux, that's pretty standard in all linux distros | 06:53 |
| mjr | does it echo here? :) | 06:53 |
| mellinux | no kidding | 06:53 |
| mellinux | wow | 06:53 |
| zenrox | lol | 06:53 |
| mellinux | that was quite a response, thanks | 06:53 |
| ^thehatsrule^ | heh well Absenth, i normally use flux for most stuff | 06:53 |
| mellinux | okay, so Xinerama = X server? | 06:53 |
| zenrox | suse is the only distro that has a gui tool for it | 06:53 |
| mjr | Xinerama is a feature of the X server | 06:53 |
| zenrox | witch is also a ferture of nvidia drivers | 06:54 |
| ermo | mellinux, a 'module' if you will | 06:54 |
| mellinux | Sweet, is the X server in Ubuntu or do I need to download it. | 06:54 |
| Zane | is there any rpm installer or pacjake manager available with ubuntu | 06:54 |
| mjr | (though Xinerama is not strictly necessary for dual-head, most people probably expect a Xinerama dual head system when they think of dual head) | 06:54 |

| mellinux | ..but I have no idea what I'm doing when it comes to installing programs on linux. | 06:56 |
| zenrox | lrojas, open system montor and end task the nautilus | 06:56 |
| mellinux | GeForce FX 5200 | 06:56 |
| zenrox | it will re start | 06:56 |

| mellinux | There's obviously 2 VGA ports on the back. | 06:56 |
| SeeleyUSMC | Does anyone here use a wireless atheros card? | 06:56 |
| mjr | mellinux, then, if you use nvidia's binary drivers, you might want to use nvidia's twinview feature, which gives you 3d acceleration (which, I believe, doesn't work with plain xinerama on those drivers) | 06:57 |
| lrojas | zenrox, it didnt work... | 06:57 |
| mjr | mellinux, see eg. http://lists.suse.com/archive/suse-linux-e/2001-Jun/att-3012/01-TWINVIEW_README for that | 06:57 |

| ermo | mjr, I just found out yesterday that the DRI ati radeon drivers won't go into direct rendering mode when using Xinerama, and thus, won't have 3D accel | 06:58 |
| lrojas | and other times it dont | 06:58 |

| lrojas | to see if i can make it mount it | 06:59 |
| zenrox | lrojas, you can manuly mount it | 07:00 |
| lrojas | how? | 07:00 |
| ermo | mjr, does that imply running X on the framebuffer? | 07:00 |
| mjr | ermo, essentially the same as xinerama, but the frame buffer is arranged to be one big canvas in the video card memory | 07:00 |
| lrojas | is connected to the firewire port | 07:00 |
| mjr | ermo, no | 07:00 |
| zenrox | lrojas, sudo mount -t filesystemhere /dev/location /media/ipod | 07:00 |
| ermo | mjr, is it stable yet? | 07:01 |
| lrojas | and how do i find what /dev/ is my ipod? | 07:01 |
| mjr | 'course, there are limitations on it; eg. the radeons up to 9250 won't do 3d acceleration on over 2048 pixels (but stuff that stays within those bounds does work) | 07:01 |
| mjr | (even if the total resolution is higher) | 07:01 |
| mjr | ermo, yes | 07:01 |

| DarthFrog | sal002: You can boot the live CD and look at the file system. You can edit menu.lst so that it's correct and grub should then boot your system properly. Unlike LILO, grub doesn't need anything more to process changes in its config file. | 07:37 |

Instead, use the Ubuntu package manager (Synaptic) to get it from the backports repository (read the URL he just posted).

| MMond | JDahl: I have at least a bit more ground understanding of this now -- http://localhost/~user/test2.html works now, perfectly. But when I go upon a php file, it gives me a dialog of "Save the file," so php at this, is not working. If it is of any consolation, though: when I do type "php" in basic term.. it "works," (although this shouldn't mean anything.. especially with my little knowledge of CLI) | 08:50 |

| raetsel | you got it I think dashnu | 11:46 |
| dashnu | heh | 11:46 |
| nis | djp: Sounds like you have to redirect input for the job you're calling. I've never done that; I generally craft a shell script and direct output to /dev/null. | 11:46 |

| djp | nis: yes. error is No terminal found for user interaction. All questions will abort the program. Reading config file: /root/.darrc | 11:56 |
| nis | djp: I'd definitely break that script down to components and debug it interactively until it works flawlessly before attempting to make it run under cron. | 11:57 |

| thoreauputic | nis: I don't know about that - recent mac owner - what was the flaw? | 11:58 |
| raetsel | djp, using "at now" might be a quicker way to debug it for when it runs without a terminal | 11:58 |
| nis | djp: sure. It says something about /system/ in italics. Is that the user running the cron job? | 11:58 |
| nis | thoreauputic: well the short version is that you had to d/l like a 65 meg 'patch' from Apple. I think it was a flaw in Panther. Allowed arbitrary exec. through any web browser. | 11:59 |
