| Jesterace | bob2, whatever dude chill | 12:00 |

| aspire | the connection is activated | 12:00 |
| petemc | if you install kubuntu-desktop, do you get to choose between kde and gnome when you login to gdm? | 12:00 |
| Brunellus | how do I get GDM to execute "startfluxbox" instead of plain-old "fluxbox"? | 12:00 |
| Elysium_ | well, I'm not sure if it uses ethernet through usb protocal | 12:00 |
| apokryphos | petemc: yes | 12:00 |
| petemc | lovely, cheers | 12:00 |
| Elysium_ | or some proprietary file transfer protocal | 12:00 |
| aspire | in place of eth0 it is usb0 | 12:00 |
| aspire | i did modprobe usbnet to get the modules | 12:01 |
| spacey | petemc, you don't have to install kubuntu for that i think | 12:01 |
| Elysium_ | that sounds ok | 12:01 |
| aspire | ya | 12:01 |
| aspire | it is ok | 12:01 |
| spacey | just install ubuntu and kde | 12:01 |
| aspire | and linux linux work | 12:01 |
| apokryphos | spacey: that is kubuntu :) | 12:01 |
| spacey | apokryphos, well you will still keep gnome | 12:01 |
| spacey | so | 12:01 |
| Elysium_ | then I would say it's on the windows side | 12:01 |
| spacey | its both i guess | 12:01 |
| Elysium_ | under the network properties in windows | 12:01 |
| aspire | what could be the problem | 12:02 |
| apokryphos | spacey: precisely. | 12:02 |
| aspire | i have noticed that it does not automatically optain an ip | 12:02 |
| aspire | but i can set it manualy and it connects | 12:02 |

| Alinux | sorry for my english. | 12:36 |

| syn-ack | Alinux: what you thought about looking to see if they have an AMD64 port? | 12:36 |
| syn-ack | Alinux: Come on, its not rocket science. | 12:36 |
| Alinux | I've alredy installed with ubuntu RealPlayer.bin | 12:36 |
| stuNNed | Levander: yes, highest i can go is 75, with using gtf and generating a modeline i noticed it says *desired* frequency this means i can set it at 85 only if monitor can handle 75, if this makes sense | 12:36 |
| Alinux | folowing the howto. | 12:36 |
| Alinux | but it doesn't works. | 12:37 |
| Levander | stuNNed: no, u make no sense, retry? | 12:37 |
| syn-ack | Alinux: then you dont have an AMD 64 port. | 12:37 |
| Levander | stuNNed: what mean can set it at 85 only if monitor can handle 75? think can only set it at 85 if monitor can handle 85 | 12:37 |

| Levander | stuNNed: the modeline tells the software what performance specs your hardware (video card and monitor can handle). MS Windows has the same thing, but Windows ships with a huge database of these. The hardware manufacturers ship these to Microsoft and they make sure they work. Not as many use X-Windows, so the manufacturers don't bother. You gotta gather yourself. | 12:40 |

| SadHatter | And another question: It's obvious that I'm new to Linux (no?), so I was just wondering, should I bother to fully customize and set up the new preview version, because I will be able to simply "upgrade" once the final 5.04 comes out in April, or will I have to reinstall and so I shouldn't bother to fully set it up just yet? | 01:16 |

Now that I'm going to intall it on my hard drive, how much space should I set aside for it? Should I just make a single FAT32 partition for it? Should I just leave however much space unformated and let the installer format it? | 01:20 |

| === xxenon [xxenon@81.13.238.141] has joined #ubuntu | ||

| tahorg | SadHatter: if you tell him to do so | 01:22 |
| SadHatter | Great. | 01:22 |
| DsOft | if all hd is partitioned, u should use througth win partition magic to make some free space | 01:22 |

| black_Nightmare | dsoft..like I thought too | 01:23 |
| SadHatter | Well hopefully for everyday use, but for now, to give it a try. | 01:23 |
| akk | Hmm, the hoary installer set my user password wrong and wouldn't let me log in. | 01:23 |
| Absenth | tahorg, server. | 01:23 |
| akk | I had to ctl-alt-F2 and log in as root to fix it. | 01:23 |

| Absenth | tahorg I found one. | 01:25 |
| Jesterace | SadHatter, you'll likely have to make a new swap partition i doubt ubuntu and win can share considering windows file types | 01:25 |

| DsOft | on console | 01:26 |
| DsOft | u are at user account? | 01:27 |
| tahorg | Absenth: you might need to restart nfs-kernel-server too | 01:27 |
| DsOft | it ask u to log, log in as normal user | 01:27 |
| akk | DsOft: It wouldn't let me log in as the user account. It didn't set the password correctly during install. | 01:27 |
| DsOft | i thought it was the root passed | 01:27 |
| DsOft | root passw | 01:27 |
| DsOft | if user passwd isnt set fine, u should reinstall | 01:28 |

| Absenth | hey I have a quick question..... is it possible to upgrade distros from CLI on anything non debian based... Ie. apt-get update, apt-get dist-upgrade. but using rpm or yum? | 01:49 |
| yasirf | is there a gui for apt? i know in redhat apt you can choose what programs you want to install and stufflike that | 01:49 |
| BigIslandVegan | yes, i just don't know how to make it work | 01:49 |
| BigIslandVegan | i got the bluez stuff | 01:49 |
| DsOft | u should search "bluetooth on debian" for more info at www.google.es or www.debian.org | 01:49 |

| Zugot | amd64 linux feels way faster | 02:26 |
| zenrox | Redwraith111, if you want | 02:26 |
| Zugot | maybe its just placebo... | 02:26 |
| Redwraith111 | alright | 02:26 |
| Redwraith111 | i just had to install gcc and bison and flex as well lol | 02:27 |
| Redwraith111 | someone needs to make a winex package for deb | 02:27 |
| sharp | so how do i login to root after a fresh install? | 02:27 |
| Zugot | Redwraith111, cedega ain't free | 02:27 |
| pantz | well after you run 'make install' it will get installed into either /usr/local/bin or wherever you specified and if you 'really' want to you can then delete the source you exported with cvs | 02:27 |
| geneo93 | sharp: you dont | 02:27 |

| geneo93 | should | 02:41 |
| jbass1234 | Package xmms is not available, but is referred to by another package. | 02:41 |

| akk | Nothing new related to gtk ... but I do need some packages I don't have (bison stuff, etc.) | 03:28 |
| tritium | knucks, yes | 03:28 |
| DarthFrog | e5Pete: Actually, you might be able to copy the kernel over from the live CD, re-configure grub, and rescue your system. | 03:28 |
| caffinated | h2o: oh, don't forget to get/lock the warty versions of ndiswrapper-tools too | 03:28 |

| DarthFrog | e5Pete: The second installation option is the one I'd take in your situation. | 03:30 |

| jbass1234 | bye | 03:54 |
| GnuKemist | caffinated, rhythmbox didn't work for me out of the box | 03:54 |
| tritium | caffinated, you need gstreamer0.8-mad | 03:55 |
| GnuKemist | caffinated, then one day after aot-get upgrade it worked | 03:55 |
| caffinated | tritium: i just got rid of it. | 03:55 |
| caffinated | xine works great | 03:55 |
| GnuKemist | caffinated, and gstreamer too | 03:55 |
| tritium | caffinated, that's why you can't play mp3 | 03:55 |
| Absenth | newcpnb, sorry man, I'm drawing a blank on howto's for ubuntu as a router. | 03:55 |
| caffinated | tritium: no, rhythm box was the first to go | 03:55 |
| caffinated | after that, totem followed | 03:55 |
| Absenth | newcpnb, and the way I set mine up won't help you since it's openbsd 3.5 | 03:55 |
| tritium | akk, try dpkg-buildpackage instead | 03:56 |
| tritium | caffinated, it works, though. That's what I'm saying | 03:56 |
| caffinated | tritium: it doesn't though. | 03:56 |
| caffinated | tritium: totem won't read anything i give it. not even mpeg. it was very frustrating. | 03:56 |
| tritium | caffinated, my working rhythmbox is a counter-example to your claim | 03:57 |
| caffinated | and STILL wouldn't read anything even after i updated all the packages | 03:57 |
| GnuKemist | totem plays DVDs for me | 03:57 |

| SysFail | nobody is running webmin?? | 03:59 |
| Absenth | SysFail, not I sorry. | 03:59 |

| Absenth | SysFail, I think most Ubuntu users aren't using it as a server. At least that's my guess | 04:00 |

| Yldthing | what's portmap? | 04:01 |
| caffinated | if i should need to, then that's a major flaw with totem, and they should replace totem with gxine. | 04:01 |
| tritium | caffinated, that was your problem there then | 04:01 |
| newcpnb | I want one help please ! I have 2 eth devices, and i use as default the eth1. I want to route all outbound traffic for port 2525 thought eth0, how can this be done ??? | 04:01 |
| tritium | caffinated, no, the problem is the restricted formats | 04:01 |
| caffinated | tritium: that's just going to confuse and frustrate people | 04:01 |
| Absenth | tritium, I figured, since I got to install nfsd, and portmap etc. etc. | 04:01 |
| tritium | caffinated, it's a legal issue that can't be gotten around | 04:01 |

| dwmcqueen | And how to get GDM to restart? | 04:02 |
| tritium | Absenth, yes | 04:02 |
| caffinated | tritium: then that doesn't explain why mpegs wouldn't work | 04:02 |
| caffinated | imo, totem is just a bad idea. especially if you want a distro that "just works" | 04:02 |
| tritium | caffinated, you mentioned other codecs. see this: http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/RestrictedFormats | 04:03 |
| caffinated | i mean, if you can't do *anything* with it out of the box, it may as well not be there | 04:03 |
| Yldthing | what is compositing? as described here: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=20769 | 04:03 |
| tritium | there are legal reasons they can't just do what you want | 04:03 |
| caffinated | Yldthing: makes video updates faster, as well as adding some visual effects. | 04:03 |

| tritium | dwmcqueen, I haven't tried it. Look on the wiki or forums for xfce issues | 04:04 |

| dwmcqueen | I did logout. | 04:09 |
| caffinated | yasirf: it's how you do administration in ubuntu instead of using the root account | 04:09 |
| Dillweed | dwmcqueen: don't know then try doing a ctrl-alt-backspace. everytime I've installed xfce the option to change the session to xfce was there. | 04:09 |

| friedCrumpet | But setting a keybinding causes 'Super_L' or 'Super_R' to come up | 04:58 |

| kain | neighborlee, gaim | 05:23 |
| neighborlee | gaim doesnt seem to allow one so im curious | 05:23 |
| neighborlee | o_0 | 05:23 |
| geneo93 | google for it | 05:23 |
| tritium | neighborlee, gaim does in fact | 05:23 |
| kain | check msn plugin options | 05:23 |
| neighborlee | geneo93,gee thanks LOL | 05:23 |
| neighborlee | kain, ok sounds good | 05:24 |
| kurtwisener | WHERE DO I GO? | 05:24 |
| tritium | kurtwisener, please don't yell. | 05:24 |
| akk | I can't find a font chooser -- does gtkfontsel exist in some ubuntu package? | 05:24 |
| kurtwisener | sorry | 05:24 |
| MacPlusG3 | neighborlee: gaim will put pictures there if people have set them | 05:24 |

| tritium | kurtwisener, you're probably one of a small group using ubuntu on mac mini at this point | 05:25 |
| neighborlee | MacPlusG3, actually sorry my bad..I meant can I put a picture there for people to see | 05:25 |
| MacPlusG3 | neighborlee: i think so... in the settings for something... have a look, i'm sure i've seen it. | 05:25 |
| MacPlusG3 | neighborlee: at least for some networks | 05:25 |
| tritium | kurtwisener, what's the issue? | 05:25 |

| tritium | kurtwisener, np :) | 05:30 |
| kurtwisener | later fellas and thanks again | 05:30 |
| MacPlusG3 | shai: there is no real standard. | 05:30 |
| farruinn | akk: do you have universe enabled? apt-cache search shows a gtkfontsel package for me | 05:30 |
| jsgotangco | well theres no standard really except they usually use the same compiler | 05:30 |
| kain | eclipse-platform doesn't exists in current hoary repository | 05:31 |
| shai | It was refrainly asked... I meant, which is the closest to the standart ANSI/ISO? | 05:31 |
| shai | I don't wanna download a compiler just to realize it doesn't match | 05:31 |
| kain | there is eclipse-nls-sdk | 05:31 |
| Miguez | where in Ubuntu can I check settings on my NIC? | 05:31 |
| kain | but it's a localized message catalog | 05:31 |
| farruinn | shai: gcc is the standard gnu compiler, I think that's ANSI/ISO compatible... | 05:31 |
| jsgotangco | gcc is the most standard as you can get | 05:31 |
| jsgotangco | everything in linux has gcc has foundation anyway | 05:32 |
| shai | hmmpphh, is it comfortable? | 05:32 |
| jsgotangco | how comfortable does it have to be as a compiler? | 05:33 |
| jsgotangco | everthing in free software has gcc as foundation | 05:33 |
| shai | not as a compiler but as an enviorment | 05:33 |
| akk | farruinn: How do I enable universe? | 05:33 |
| jsgotangco | oh environment then | 05:33 |
| kain | wonder why eclipse isn't in multiverse/devel on hoary | 05:33 |
| jsgotangco | its your call | 05:33 |
| jsgotangco | theres no standard environment | 05:33 |
| shai | I know | 05:33 |
| akk | farruinn: apt-cache search universe doesn't show anything either, here ... | 05:33 |
| shai | but, I'm looking for a comfy enviorment whose compiler is rather standart | 05:33 |
| jsgotangco | i swear by emacs though | 05:33 |
| shai | although I'd sattle for the enviorment rather then for the compiler | 05:34 |
| farruinn | akk: check the settings>repositories menu in synaptic, make sure everything is checked/enabled | 05:34 |
| MacPlusG3 | shai: things like anjuta (an IDE) combine a text editor and some functionality to manage makefiles. they all end up using GCC at the end | 05:34 |
| farruinn | shai: I think (for gnome) anjuta is as close as it gets... | 05:34 |
| MacPlusG3 | shai: think of things like anjuta and kdevelop providing a wrapper around GCC, Make, autotools etc | 05:34 |

| MacPlusG3 | shai: yeap, that's why you always hear different people saying <insert environment here> is good | 05:36 |

| geneo93 | and in kde you can right click screen to do most things like screen size and so on | 07:05 |
| ian | geneo93: having it all in one place is good, but KDE has some real trouble with preferences-overload. I was talking to the KDE guys at LinuxWorldExpo about it (and they agree). But it's going to be a serious problem for them to "fix", since so many KDE users are "hardcore" and like it that way | 07:05 |
| madstop | ian, if you want to hand out awards for horrible, beastly control centers, give it to gconfig, not kde | 07:05 |
| geneo93 | its much more windows user style | 07:05 |
| ian | madstop: gconfig is not for novice users | 07:05 |

| ian | like free tech support? | 07:31 |
| hap0 | Well I just found it kind of sad to be invited to go elsewhere because of my choice of that one WM. None of the other WM's are singled to use a seperate channel. | 07:31 |
| bob2 | ian: it gets security fixes, bug fixes, etc, like gnome does in ubuntu | 07:31 |

| bob2 | adscadsa: does hoary work? | 07:34 |
| farruinn | hap0: you're getting random reboots? | 07:34 |
| copilot | I was steered toward vsftpd, but haven't been able to log in from anywhere else. | 07:34 |

| wdh | wingsline, webmin sucks.. proftpd is really quite easy to configure in its config file.. | 07:34 |

| bob2 | oggah: it's best to just ask your question and wait, instead of begging people | 07:35 |
| farruinn | hap0: that doesn't sound like a fluxbox problem then... (maybe I'm missing the point) | 07:35 |
| copilot | I don't need a gui, i'm familiar with text based config files | 07:36 |
| bob2 | oggah: you'd want to explain what dclib is, and then paste the whole error from ./configure to #flood | 07:36 |

| MHaggag | _4strO: It's there? I know I sound retarded, but I really couldn't make any of the text out! I want to change this because it displayed arabic incorrectly (each character written separately, while arabic characters in general are joint together) | 08:17 |

| darkgamer20 | ok so it will be the same if i edit apt and update it right? | 08:30 |
| geneo91 | Taleel: i thought that was RC1 | 08:30 |

| geneo91 | kernel org has the patches for it | 08:47 |
| geneo91 | synaptic is frontend for apt | 08:48 |
| Tomcat23 | Hmmn, geneo91, maybe I'll need to install mandrake on the box that I set up for that one then... but I think ubuntu is going to work for me in general. | 08:48 |
| Akira | Tomcat23: dpkg allows to install .deb files, while apt-get pulls from repositories | 08:49 |
| Akira | then installs | 08:49 |
| geneo91 | Tomcat23: well i shy away from mandrake unless your a club member | 08:49 |
| Taleel | Tomcat23: dpkg is the core of the package system. apt-get is the mechanism that pulls the packages from a server or CD. synaptic, dselect, aptitude etc. are the frontends that make selecting and deselecting packages easier | 08:49 |

| Initri | ..should I go that route vs. a stock Debian install ? - and if so, which version is the latest stable (Horay or Warty) ? | 08:52 |
| Taleel | Tomcat23: let me check. usually you just do sudo dpkg -i foobar.deb | 08:52 |
| Echylo | hoary is pretty stable | 08:52 |
| Initri | [I wasn't paying attention!] | 08:52 |

| Echylo | I don't have experience with servers, but I think hoary will do just fine | 08:52 |

| Amaranth | jdub: Just blabbing something I told him in every Ubuntu related channel he can find. | 08:53 |
| jdub | Initri: hoary is still pre-release, but it's pretty robust. | 08:53 |

| jdub | Initri: i'm running it on my home server and my linode vm. | 08:53 |
| Taleel | Initri: for a server, Debian might be the better choice, since a lot of server-related stuff in Ubuntu is in "universe", thus relatively unsupported | 08:53 |
| Echylo | Initri, ye | 08:53 |

| membreya | Initri: did you just hit random keys? :| | 08:57 |
| paulproteus | Initri: My recommendation: | 08:57 |
| paulproteus | Install Hoary. | 08:57 |
| paulproteus | dist-upgrade regularly until the release hits. | 08:57 |
| Initri | [All] : So, Ubunto would be OK for me to use as a server, is a different Debian flavor, and I might learn something new and have some fun and should work for me just fine ? | 08:58 |
| paulproteus | Then you'll only have security updates to worry about. | 08:58 |
| paulproteus | Initri: OK as server? Yes. Diff. Debian flavor? Yes. Learn something new? Probably. Have fun and work fine? Likely. | 08:58 |
| geneo91 | omniscient: is that old | 08:58 |
| Initri | Paul: What's wrong with apt-get update/upgrade ? - I've never really used dist-upgrade. | 08:58 |
| packetgod | Can you do a non x-windows install of Ubunto? If so then you bet for servers, if no then skip it | 08:58 |
| Echylo | initri | 08:58 |
| Echylo | you beter should :p | 08:58 |

| paulproteus | Initri: dist-upgrade brings in fresh dependencies, too. | 08:59 |
| packetgod | Well then no worries, cause it is still debian underneath and it is one of the most stable server platforms out there | 08:59 |
| geneo91 | packetgod: yes you can | 08:59 |

| xf_ | howdy; is building a hoary cd via jigdo (which i assume is possible) recommended, or is using one of the pre-produced iso's much preferred? | 11:52 |
| kain | xf_, there are a certain number of updates since hoary release | 11:52 |

| xamdm | dmoyne, works fine, didn't need to remvoe it to get kdm work ;-) | 11:53 |

| xf_ | heh just found my local isp is mirroring the hoary prerelease iso, so i'll grab that | 11:53 |
| kain | kent, most likely yes, save your data and buy a new one | 11:53 |
| xf_ | many people install ubuntu via jigdo/debootstrap methods? | 11:53 |
| xf_ | did a warty installation via debootstrap the other day, worked reasonably well minus a few hiccups | 11:54 |
| dmoyne | to xamdm : you mean you could install something different from what we call "kdm" ? | 11:54 |
| kent | kain, hmm. The strange thing is that this computer (its my brothers actually) had a harddisk that went nuts a week ago. This is a new harddisk. Perhaps its the mainboard? | 11:54 |

| visor | queuetue: its not linux fault | 01:30 |
| queuetue | visor, Who's fault is it? | 01:30 |
| mjr | queuetue, doesn't happen to everyone; us with audio hardware and drivers capable of mixing don't have the problem. Anyway, it can be fixed on the ALSA level by using dmix, that's just not usually configured by default (dunno why, perhaps adds latency?) | 01:30 |
| petemc | queuetue: yours, for not writing a patch to fic it | 01:30 |
| visor | queuetue: the _problem_ if you can call it like that is that the sound deppends uppon the architecture you use to play the sound trough your soundcard | 01:31 |
| queuetue | petemc, I've contributed plenty to both the kernel and various projects that ship with ubuntu, thank you very much. | 01:31 |
| petemc | sure :) | 01:31 |
| visor | queuetue: there is ALSA and OSS, thats the lower level stuff, then there is Arts, ESD and some others i dont really used | 01:31 |
| mjr | I do agree that it's a pain in the ass and dmix should be configured by default unless there are really horrible side effects | 01:32 |
| queuetue | mjr, So, what hardware do I need tp [urchase t make this problem go away? | 01:32 |
| petemc | dmix doesnt work all the time | 01:32 |
| mjr | (such as not being able to play video and audio in sync, in which case it should be fixed and then configured by default) | 01:32 |
| queuetue | Besides a full-size keyboard. :) | 01:32 |
| petemc | i was under the impression this is what esd is for | 01:32 |
| mjr | queuetue, sb live works for me | 01:32 |
| visor | queuetue: but when an application does not have ESound support within it would try to use directly your sound card, so, any app that does not have either support for esd compiled in, or a plugin will either not get sound or crash | 01:33 |
| queuetue | mjr, So, with an sb live, you can use kphone, totem, gaim and mpg123 all atr the same time? | 01:33 |
| mjr | queuetue, well, haven't tried that, but no reason to think one couldn't | 01:33 |
| stazz | queuetue: does dmix work at all for you? | 01:33 |
| stazz | queuetue: as in.. can two alsa-supporting applications (mpg123 isn't one) output sound simultaneously? | 01:34 |
| queuetue | stazz, Is there a repository where I can get dmix? | 01:34 |
| mjr | you don't need to get it, it comes with alsa | 01:34 |
| visor | solution? use the damn ALSA-Sink in gnome-audio properties in preferences instead of esd :) | 01:34 |
| stazz | queuetue: wget http://zzats.intterweb.com/asoundrc | 01:34 |
| stazz | queuetue: place that under your home directory with .asoundrc and dmix "is set up for you" | 01:34 |
| queuetue | Well, if I already have it, then it's not working. :) | 01:34 |
| mjr | queuetue, as I said, it's not configured by default | 01:35 |
| stazz | queuetue: Could you please try what I just mentioned | 01:35 |
| queuetue | mjr, Ah, ok. reading now. | 01:35 |
| mjr | and by the way, dmix can be configured to work also for alsa's OSS emulation (though I don't know how, since I haven't had to) | 01:35 |

| queuetue | stazz, I'm looking to get it to work with the specific applications I mentioned. Other applictions do not interest me especially. | 02:23 |
| stazz | queuetue: the rest can be solved with artsd/esd. | 02:23 |

| vaijr2002 | well thanks for trying dwa | 02:25 |
| queuetue | stazz, Other applications do not really interest me at the current time. | 02:25 |
| stazz | queuetue: You've said that repeatedly and I know what you're trying to do. | 02:25 |
| queuetue | stazz, Then why do you keep giving me generic advice and hope that it might work if I use the correct applications? | 02:26 |
| stazz | queuetue: gaim (esound using dmix) + mpd (dmix) is doable, kphone (arts using dmix) will work too. | 02:26 |
| stazz | queuetue: Because that would be the first step to the solution I would have been proposing. | 02:26 |

| stazz | queuetue: You're really being an asshole. | 02:31 |
| stazz | queuetue: I mean, I didn't even get started! | 02:31 |
| stazz | queuetue: I was planning to tell you how to use both arts and esd simulatenously with dmix to allow you play sound from *any* application simultaneously. | 02:32 |
| Nermal | just get rid of arts and esd | 02:32 |
| Nermal | use alsa | 02:32 |
| Nermal | both are a pain in the ass | 02:32 |
| stazz | I've *never* had any trouble with esd. | 02:32 |
| Nermal | esd is pretty evil | 02:33 |
| stazz | and as esd supports alsa, it goes very well with dmix-using applications. | 02:33 |
| apokryphos | aRts is fine for what it does | 02:33 |
| Nermal | and uneeded to a large extend with hardware mixing | 02:33 |
| queuetue | stazz, Ok, I appreciate your plan, but I was hoping to find someone that was less stuck in the 'planning' phase, and more interested in helping me actually solve the problem. | 02:33 |
| apokryphos | though officially unmaintained by a dev now, I believe. | 02:33 |

| Dr_Willis | time to manually edit the X config files then perhaps. | 02:57 |
| mjr | Tycho451, basically what you'll need to do is edit /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 (or xorg.conf if in Hoary), the Monitor section, so that it spesifies your monitors capabilities | 02:57 |
| Tycho451 | Ok, thanks. I'll try | 02:57 |

| === zwiebug [zwiebug_yo@p5480A4E6.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| mjr | Tycho451, namely, you'll want to spesify HorizSync and VertRefresh ranges, which you can get from your monitor manual | 02:57 |
| Dr_Willis | yea - that tool gets its infro from the XF86config-4 file or xorg.conf file. | 02:58 |
| mjr | (modern monitors should communicate these to the X server via DDC, but old monitors and/or cards may need the manual settings) | 02:58 |
| Dr_Willis | is this a lcd monitor by the way? | 02:58 |
| Tycho451 | No, old 17" CRT | 02:58 |

| noxfu | I dist-upgraded from warty to hoary and flash broke. Which package should I install to get flash working again in firefox? libflash-mozplugin didn't work. | 02:59 |
| Dr_Willis | if its real old. you may want to be very carefull. :P | 02:59 |
| mjr | so the X server is just making conservative assumptions so that it wouldn't blow your monitor up ;) | 02:59 |

| Tycho451 | Is using alien in a terminal window the normal way to install new software (like e.g. Opera)? | 03:41 |
| Phython | pitti: Send a patch to either read /usr/local/share/locale or have it configured via a file | 03:41 |

| tritium | All the fglrx packages are in "restricted" | 03:42 |

| pitti | Phython: I explained them the need to install local translations into a separate directory, but Ulrich Drepper still insists that this is a packaging bug... | 03:42 |
| Phython | pitti: yeah, that's not a libc bug | 03:43 |
| Phython | the libc bug is not having a way to read arbitrary locale directories | 03:43 |
| mus | okey, and is it confortable to use NOT X software in usual usage or it is hard, what do you think | 03:43 |

| Nermal | irc -> bitchx, ircii, irsii | 03:43 |
| HostingGeek | Tycho451: Opera make debs for opera | 03:43 |
| pitti | Phython: the missing libc feature is a _list_ of standard directories, not just a single one | 03:43 |
| Tycho451 | tritium: I'm not sure what you are talking about | 03:43 |
| Phython | pitti: then add that | 03:44 |
| pitti | Phython: generally /usr/share/locale/:/usr/local/share/locale would be a nice default | 03:44 |
| NormD | heh. a P166 would cramp just about everything...I'd look into retrobox.com for a "new" used machine....: ) | 03:44 |
| pitti | Phython: for Ubuntu, we add /usr/share/locale-langpack | 03:44 |
| Phython | pitti: What you should add to the list is /usr/local/share/locale, not what you suggested originally | 03:44 |
| tritium | Tycho451, http://ubuntuguide.org/#repositories | 03:44 |
| pitti | Phython: yes, I already added such a feature, but I asked upstream about how to improve it | 03:44 |
| tritium | Tycho451, http://www.ubuntulinux.org/ubuntu/components/document_view | 03:44 |
| Phython | pitti: sure, but you want to have the list done by directory list, not modified time | 03:44 |
| pitti | Phython: priority by list position would be fine for other distros too, I guess, but not necessarily for the purpose of language packs | 03:45 |

| Phython | pitti: Right. Do be careful next time you bring something up with the glibc folks, you have to be very specific and not go down the wrong path while trying to show your point | 03:49 |
| pitti | Phython: however, the libintl code is a mess, that's why I asked upstream where it makes most sense to hook this | 03:49 |
| Phython | pitti: So, excluding the multiple directories bit (which is really only mentioned in passing) uli was right | 03:49 |

| Tycho451 | Though I'm not sure I fully understand the first link | 03:50 |
| jbailey | Phython: No, the C library needs a locales search path concept. | 03:50 |
| pitti | Phython: it's not the user's mistake, it's a necessity with current libc (for the mo files) | 03:51 |
| pitti | jbailey: exactly | 03:51 |
| jbailey | Phython: I wouldn't do it with time stamps, I'd iterate through them in the right order and stop at the first one. | 03:51 |

| jbailey | Phython: Right. I will rework this patch to do it that way at some point in the future. | 03:52 |

| pitti | Phython: if the user is forced to put translations into /usr, this is not a packaging problem. it's entirely outside the concept of packages | 03:53 |
| pitti | Phython: but /usr/local/share/locale doesn't work ATM | 03:53 |
| Phython | pitti: it's sort of rare to have en_CA translations so I'm not surprised I didn't notice those translations not working | 03:53 |
| Phython | pitti: dealing with user installed software in /usr is a packaging problem | 03:54 |
| pitti | Phython: oh right, it's not immediately obvious to English speakers :-) | 03:54 |
| Phython | pitti: Having /usr/local/share/locale is a different problem | 03:54 |
| pitti | Phython: why is this a packaging problem? | 03:54 |
| Phython | pitti: If you put both problems in the same paragraph the important one (/usr/local/share/locale) is ignored | 03:55 |
| Tycho451 | restricted is on. multi and universe is off | 03:55 |
| Phython | pitti: because what is in /usr is a distribution issue, if you want to work around users putting stuff in /usr then deal with it! | 03:55 |
| pitti | Phython: but the point is that without /usr/locale/share/locale, the user is *forced* to use /usr/share/locale | 03:55 |
| Phython | pitti: no, the user is forced not to have translations | 03:56 |
| pitti | Phython: which is crap either way | 03:56 |
| pitti | Phython: the clean solution would be to support multiple locale directories | 03:56 |
| Phython | pitti: yes, but people putting stuff into /usr is not the problem you want to solve | 03:56 |
| Phython | so bring it up only brings badness | 03:56 |
| pitti | Phython: but most upstream software just puts mo files into /usr/share/locale | 03:57 |
| pitti | Phython: exactly because of the lack of other alternatives | 03:57 |

| akk | The remote host is my mail server, where I'm reading mail and I want to display a photo someone sent me (for example). | 05:35 |

The downloaded data seems to be corrupted; ie it says "piece XXX failed hash check, re-downloading it" while downloading... Anyone heard of this problem before? Can't seem to find anything on it using google. | 08:12 |

| nis | justin`: the last time Debian had a serious upgrade problem was (iirc) from potato -> woody, one summer. There were two competing perl versions that did not coexist, and some apps depended on one or the other and couldn't coexist with both. Since then Debian's done a better job of lockstepping everything; so upgrades are generally painless with zero downtime. Ubuntu follows this trend -- the upgrade caused no downtime and no real reason to reboot either. I | 08:15 |
