| mdke | stephen_, you can try right clicking on media files and select "open with". maybe that will have a way for you to set mplayer as default | 12:06 |

| holotone | is there any way for me to share my thunderbird profile between my xp and ubuntu installs so that whichever I use to check it, the change will be reflected in both? | 12:51 |
| stephen_ | LOL hellz no man | 12:51 |
| Kamion | USB sticks do not normally have that many partitions | 12:51 |
| stephen_ | but my USB External is recongized as scsi? | 12:51 |
| Rebroad | holotone: yes | 12:51 |
| randy | sda2 is partition #2 | 12:51 |
| Rebroad | set up thunderbird on ubuntu | 12:51 |
| stephen_ | ? so that is my usb external? | 12:51 |
| randy | sda5 is partition #5 | 12:51 |
| stephen_ | i got 2 hd | 12:51 |
| Rebroad | and then delete the Mail dir and sym link it to the XP one | 12:51 |
| stephen_ | 40 and a 80 | 12:51 |
| Kamion | oh, it's an external disk, not a stick? sure, that'll show up as SCSI | 12:51 |
| stephen_ | Ok | 12:51 |
| randy | on one drive | 12:52 |
| stephen_ | so how i mount my lovely USB hd | 12:52 |
| holotone | but the profile would have to reside on a fat32 partition, right? | 12:52 |
| Rebroad | of course | 12:52 |
| saik0 | this cant be good- modprobe nvidia-glx returned FATAL: Module nvidia_glx not found. But somehow X is funning nvidia as the driver just fine | 12:52 |

| randy | run nvidia-glx-config | 12:52 |
| Rebroad | holotone: the symlink to it which is within the profile would need to be on ext3 | 12:52 |
| Kamion | stephen_: but really, inserting it ought to make it automount and show up as an icon on your desktop | 12:52 |
| Kamion | stephen_: if it doesn't, that is a bug | 12:52 |
| LeeColleton | I'm trying to network two ubuntu machines over firewire with the eth1394 module. I can't ping between them. One is 10.0.3.1 the other is 10.0.3.2 | 12:53 |

| jasp | stephen:repeat the line (arrow up) that gave the error /dev/sda1 not found, and fill in something else | 12:53 |
| stephen_ | it's ORANGE simple is up | 12:53 |

| Mestapheles | sorry .. Shouldn't apt-get update work to fully stay up to date now that I'm at hoary ?,it seems to hold stuff back | 02:05 |
| zenrox | Mestapheles, use dist-upgrade | 02:06 |
| zenrox | or use snyaptic | 02:06 |
| Rebroad | apt-get update only gets the latest list of updates. it doesn't do any upgrading | 02:06 |
| apokryphos | Rebroad: There was some talk of that not so long ago. Team has quite a bit at the mo to do, but I think it might be worth suggesting after Hoary final is out. | 02:06 |
| randy | the new stuff in the hoary repos aren't necessary stable | 02:06 |

| zenrox | randy, but about 10 days it will be | 02:07 |
| randy | i know | 02:07 |
| Mestapheles | 'cause apt-get dist-upgrade show there is more to upgrade to | 02:07 |

| stephen_ | Hi | 03:12 |
| turf | how to i disable ntp? | 03:12 |
| stephen_ | I do Not KNow | 03:13 |
| stephen_ | Sorry | 03:13 |
| crimsun | turf: did you install ntp-server? | 03:13 |
| turf | i mean during start up ntp is syncronizing my clock setting to ntp.ubuntulinux.org i want to disable | 03:14 |
| turf | i think so | 03:14 |
| crimsun | turf: sudo aptitude remove ntpdate | 03:14 |
| turf | where do i edit ntp? | 03:14 |
| siimo | turf, just remove ntpdate :-/ thats what i did it | 03:14 |
| stephen_ | how i get steam on ubuntu | 03:14 |
| siimo | cause it kept setting my clock 1 hr behind local time | 03:15 |
| siimo | ubuntu timeserver is broken | 03:15 |
| turf | but i'll be using it sync to our own ntp server, is it ok to remove it? | 03:15 |
| crimsun | siimo: your hardware clock is set to UTC? | 03:15 |
| siimo | crimsun, no and thats what i selected in the installer | 03:16 |
| crimsun | turf: ok, so you want to keep the program but prevent it from running at boot? | 03:16 |
| mwylde | the hashes are the same | 03:16 |
| turf | crimsun: yap! | 03:16 |
| crimsun | turf: then, sudo update-rc.d -f ntpdate remove | 03:16 |
| crimsun | turf: you don't need to remove the package, just run the above command | 03:16 |
| siimo | crimsun, and since then my local time has changed only last week but havent bothered reinstalling ntp to check if ubuntus server is fixed it wasnt till 2 weeks ago | 03:17 |
| stephen_ | how i get steam on ubuntu | 03:17 |
| turf | crimsun: got it thanks! | 03:17 |
| crimsun | siimo: have you informed Kamion of that issue in the installer? | 03:17 |
| mwylde | Since the hashes are the same (and thus not a corrupt file), does anyone knwo what the problem might be? | 03:17 |
| siimo | crimsun, what issue? | 03:18 |
| siimo | crimsun, i think its the time server's fault not installers, same thing happened on warty | 03:18 |
| hou5ton | ?? would it be a bad idea to go ahead and uncomment the "hoary-updates main restricted" lines in sources.list ... or should I wait until hoary is final? | 03:18 |
| crimsun | siimo: ah, ok. So the _installer_ is fine. | 03:18 |
| turf | one more thing, how can i update my totem i can't run .dat files? | 03:18 |
| crimsun | hou5ton: you can track Hoary as it develops | 03:18 |
| siimo | yeah ntp.ubuntulinux.org or whatever was broken | 03:18 |

| siimo | crimsun, so if i want to turn off something i turn them all off? , what if i want to turn something back on | 03:21 |
| siimo | xorg-common is only on S | 03:22 |
| hou5ton | crimsun and geneo93: i have uncommented hoary universe and security universe ... that's fine I assume? | 03:22 |
| turf | crimsun: is there equivalent command for chkconfig? | 03:22 |
| crimsun | siimo: it only needs to be in S, because it only needs to run once (during boot), and S is invoked first during boot. | 03:22 |
| geneo93 | yes | 03:22 |

| helio7 | micahf: no I don't | 03:40 |
| bluefoxicy | the heap is an abstraction of pretty much an area of memory which grows and shrinks | 03:40 |
| bluefoxicy | and is manipulated by an allocator | 03:40 |
| bluefoxicy | we don't need that. | 03:40 |
| micahf | caffinated, nobody said "no, I don't" so I asked again | 03:40 |

| micahf | :D | 03:41 |
| micahf | thanks | 03:41 |
| bluefoxicy | we can use mmap() segments functioning as a bunch of independent heaps. Due to the massive potential for memory fragmentation-- heap fragmentation being very performance damaging-- this is better. | 03:41 |

| crimsun | PacoBCN: does /proc/cpuinfo tell you 2 cpus? | 03:57 |
| bluefoxicy | shank_: but if you free the memory at the end of the heap, the allocator will brk() the heap down and the kernel will reclaim it. | 03:57 |
| caffinated | orko: it's generally a good idea as a precaution because you can have it automaticly unmount after the boot process is done. | 03:57 |

| Absenth | PacoBCN, then you'll look for something that's like kernel-image-2.6.10-5-686 or along those lines. | 04:00 |
| micahf | nis: I see | 04:00 |
| Absenth | PacoBCN, I don't have hoary on anything I can look at at the moment. the pc running it is in SWG :) | 04:00 |
| bluefoxicy | shank_: one which uses mmap() segments to allocate reasonable chunks of memory to manage, instead of using the heap and brk() to try to manage a continuous, fragmented area of memory possibly gigabytes wide. | 04:00 |

| DakPowers | Any suggestions? | 04:00 |
| stang | DakPowers: Then that's not your problem... I once used an old old old IBM monitor and Red Hat used too large of a resolution by default. | 04:01 |
| stang | But this isn't your problem | 04:01 |
| bluefoxicy | shank_: allocating everything by mmap() is evil as well, btw. Allocating a big 4M chunk by mmap() and making it share multiple pieces of memory as requested by malloc() allows you to free that chunk when it's empty | 04:01 |
| PacoBCN | Absenth, thanks, it's just because I remember once I upgraded the kernel, created a new entry in grub and couldn't boot with the new one | 04:01 |
| nis | micahf: mount -t proc none /mnt/hda5/proc && chroot /mnt/hda5 /bin/bash (where hda5 is the gentoo volume u could boot directly into from yaboot) | 04:01 |
| DakPowers | But I only set it to accept 1024x768 during installation, it'll still do larger? | 04:01 |
| stang | I'm learning like you... one of these other guys will have your answer though... just get their attention | 04:01 |
| stang | No, I think your resolution is fine | 04:01 |
| bluefoxicy | shank_: so 1 segment per 4M, rather than 1 segment per allocation (a bad alternative to the current design) or 1 giant heap per everything in the universe (the horrid current design) | 04:01 |
| DakPowers | Anyone else ever have resolution problems? | 04:02 |
| DakPowers | Thanks, though, stang :) | 04:02 |
| stang | Not a problem... it was worth a shot :-) | 04:02 |
| shank_ | bluefoxicy, you actually discussed this with anyone that has a clue? instead of #ubuntu? | 04:02 |
| stephen_ | Should i upgrade the defualt Ubuntu Firefox to the latest? | 04:02 |
| PacoBCN | Absenth, so I will probably wait until next fresh installation, when Hoary will be release, but opens a window of hope in performances to know that it might speed up with this specific kernel | 04:02 |
| bluefoxicy | shank_: no. :) my last design was way overboard, so I toned this one down | 04:03 |

| DakPowers | But I only choose 1024, 800 and 600, and I know my monitor can take all of those | 04:11 |
| stang | DakPowers, i think there's an argument you can pass to the kernel when booting to tell it what resolution | 04:11 |

| smogger914 | what ionrock: smogger914: if you are running the ubuntu update tool that uses apt | 05:53 |
| rob_ | How does apt-get work? It still amazes me. Does it just have a list of databases it searches for the file you specify? | 05:53 |

| rob_ | tried that, cant find kmud with apt-get | 05:58 |
| robl^ | GNUstep is a development toolkit / dekstop.. like KDEO or GNOME.. but based on the same API that Mac OS X uses for Cocoa | 05:59 |
| kdp | kkathman: system->preferences->preferred apps | 05:59 |
| maxchee | robl^: I though gnustep (the framework) is still under dev | 05:59 |
| JDahl | rob_, when you see an error like you described above, you almost always need a xxx-dev package.. use "apt-cache search xxx-dev" to look it up | 06:00 |
| kybalion | Is the lack of anyone answering me mean I've failed to follow some question protocol? | 06:00 |
| kkathman | kdp thats in Gnome I suppose, and Im running XFCE :( | 06:00 |
| robl^ | maxchee: yes. so is Mac OS X. :) but GNUstep is useable. there are always new versions.. same with any other software | 06:00 |
| maxchee | robl^: and are there any gnustep apps? | 06:00 |
| rob_ | Hmm, when I did that, the computer thought for a second then just gave me another bash prompy | 06:00 |
| rob_ | prompt | 06:00 |
| maxchee | robl^: other than windowmaker (which is not even using the framework) | 06:01 |
| robl^ | maxchee: a fair number.. and as of recently, more and more Mac OS X are being ported to GNUstep | 06:01 |

| maxchee | kkathman: ubuntu's gnome theme is customized | 06:09 |
| maxchee | robl^: ie. bright green back button of winstripe, right? | 06:09 |
| kkathman | maxchee yes | 06:09 |
| mwylde_ | so with apt-get is there any automated way to get, for instance, dev tools (which seem to be sorely lacking from the vanilla Hoary install)? | 06:09 |
| robl^ | maxchee: yeah. Firefix *default) 2.0 | 06:09 |
| robl^ | FireFox even | 06:10 |

| monkey89 | crimsun, http://pastebin.ca/8202 (and thanks for the help, btw) | 07:04 |
| tomas- | if i decide to have non-GPL commercial software utilize GPL software (such as a web application using some third-party perl libraries), and decide to bundle those libraries with the software purely for convenience upon the end-user (who might not know how to do installs of third-party software), and NOT because of intent to sell any part of the GPL software, would this be a problem? | 07:05 |
| rvirani | so anyways | 07:05 |
| rvirani | where do I get good admin docs for Ubuntu - from the sysadmin perspective | 07:05 |
| syn-ack | tomas-: the techical answer is yes | 07:06 |

| crimsun | monkey89: so you have 2 HDs and 1 DVD+RW, correct? | 07:08 |
| monkey89 | crimsun, correct. | 07:08 |
| bob2 | and Debian doesn't use /etc/rc.local, but it's not a very big difference | 07:09 |
| rvirani | there are other things to for example startup / shutdown init scripts and the like | 07:09 |
| crimsun | monkey89: they seem to be detected just fine. What seems to be the issue? | 07:09 |
| rvirani | bob2: you are correct but I would like to be well informed about the small differences | 07:09 |
| bob2 | rvirani: getting a Debian book would be a good idea then. | 07:09 |
| rvirani | Im sure if I admined a debian box like I did say a slackware box... | 07:09 |
| bob2 | rvirani: or "linux in a nutshell" | 07:09 |
| rvirani | some people might have a crap | 07:09 |
| monkey89 | crimsun, I have hdb1 mounting in /media/Backup, but gnome-volume-manager isn't recognizing it (so it doesn't appear as a choice on the desktop or in the file manager) until i restart dbus-1 | 07:09 |
| rvirani | bob2: got that one :D | 07:09 |
| rvirani | I'll take a look at the debian book | 07:10 |
| rvirani | btw is debian dead, there stable is stale? | 07:10 |
| tomas- | why is something "free" when it really isnt and requires a lawyer to understand? nothing bound by legal restriction is free in the sense of usage....im not EVER telling my customers that the third party libraries are mine and only available through me. im not even modifying them. | 07:10 |
| bob2 | rvirani: no, of course not | 07:10 |
| bob2 | tomas-: of course it's free | 07:10 |
| bob2 | tomas-: it's only complicated because you're trying to skirt the GPL and make use of Free software from your proprietary atuff | 07:10 |
| bob2 | if your stuff was under a GPL-compatible license, there would not be any issue at all | 07:11 |
| === BuffaloSoldier [~user@218.111.148.164] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| tomas- | well honestly, the end-user would know about the third-party libraries and if they wanted ot get them themselves, whatever, but im just bundling them automatically for the novice | 07:11 |
| bob2 | there you go | 07:11 |
| crimsun | monkey89: try creating a /Backup and mounting it there instead of /media/Backup | 07:11 |
| monkey89 | crimsun, k | 07:12 |
| tomas- | i dont see how that violates the GPL, in the situation where the end commercial non-GPL product is significantly different than the GPL product and is not a derivative at all, but simply dependent upon (so if they want to get a stock version, they can) | 07:12 |
| syn-ack | tomas-: thats not the point. The point is: If Its Not Under A Free Licence, It CANNOT Be distrubuted with free software. | 07:12 |

| syn-ack | bob2: Well, thats GPL compliant. | 07:14 |

| bob2 | asking for help with skirting the GPL on a user IRC channel seems kinda silly | 07:15 |
| claint | this is not very dandy. updating ubuntu took out all the other operating systems in my menu.lst, de-resolutionized my XF86Config. I am now fixing it. but someone not proficient would be at a loss. What kind of update is this? is there somewhere where we can issue bugs? | 07:15 |

| n4cht | whew. | 07:22 |
| bob2 | n4cht: please turn that off | 07:22 |

| claint | daniels: no questions asked. i used that synaptic thing instead of apt-get and boom. menu.lst is gone, it made it real basic with only ubuntu stuff, and XF86C.... is gone as well. 640x res only in it. | 07:23 |
| claint | daniels: it didn't ask a thing. | 07:23 |
| bob2 | claint: did you ever modify your grub config manually? | 07:23 |

| bob2 | there you go | 07:23 |
| claint | bob2:^ | 07:23 |
| bob2 | read the comments in that file again | 07:23 |
| tomas- | another similar thought. what about selling web SERVICES utilizing open source (GPL) software? such as if i had some portal site that used a gpl webmail client, would that be a problem? there's no distribution at all, its a web service | 07:23 |
| claint | bob2: i had also edited XF86Config....... | 07:24 |
| bob2 | tomas-: the benefit is supposed to b ethat it encourages proprietary software vendors to Free their software so they can make use of cool GPL libraries | 07:24 |
| akk | tomas-: One benefit to the end user is that if more people write GPL software, then every user gets to use it. | 07:24 |
| claint | bob2: previously | 07:24 |
| bob2 | claint: haha | 07:24 |
| n4cht | bob2, no thanks. unless there's some channel rule against it, which i'm fairly certain there isn't. (yes, i'm aware you asked nicely... however, i just got home, i'm sick, i'm tired, and i'm feeling terribly bitchy. many apologies for targetting you with my ire.) | 07:24 |
| bob2 | n4cht: it's strongly discouraged because it's annoying and would become extremely annoying if everyone in here used it | 07:24 |
| claint | bob2: i don't understand. we are using linux and we are not supposed to edit the config files? | 07:24 |
| akk | tomas-: Including the users who wrote the libraries, so part of their "payment" for that effort is that they get to use other people's free software. | 07:24 |
| bob2 | claint: "we" are supposed to read comments before modifying generated files | 07:25 |
| bob2 | tomas-: the webservice "loophole" is not forbidden, but apparently richard stallman is looking at it for the GPL, v3 | 07:25 |

| tomas- | er requires a more advanced user to know how to install dependencies, or needs to reinvent the wheel | 07:27 |

| Skaaa | jimbob:hold on, im having a new problem, sigh | 07:40 |
| bob2 | SuperL4g: depends what version of ubuntu and what hardware | 07:40 |
| SuperL4g | I have an iBook G3 900. When I try to wake the machine from a sleep state, it doesn't come up | 07:40 |
| bob2 | nis: oh, 2.6.8.1, iirc | 07:40 |
| nis | bob2: tnx. | 07:40 |
| bob2 | nix000: it took a long while for the company to release gpl stuff? | 07:40 |
| SuperL4g | bob2: I tried the latest Hoary daily, and Kubuntu daily | 07:40 |
| Tugg | SuSE developed ALSA... now all the linux distros use it but they are filing for bankrupsy | 07:40 |
| fabbione | SuperL4g: you might want to disable dri from X | 07:40 |

| bob2 | SuperL4g: hal is the other issue, https://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1940 | 07:41 |
| Skaaa | I AM A VERY UNHAPPY CAMPER, I TRY TO START THE OTHER COMPUTER AND NO OPERATING SYSTEM FOUND! I RAN IT FINE A FEW GHOURS AGO! | 07:41 |
| nix000 | bob2, to get paid doing gpl stuff. i assume companies just opening their code is just a new and rare phenomenon. more likely to get paid after starting a project and getting noticed. | 07:41 |
| Jimbob | Skaaa: The windows computer, you mean? | 07:42 |
| JDahl | another bug in Hoary seems to be that you often lose control of the terminal after you resize it | 07:42 |
| Skaaa | no | 07:42 |
| Jimbob | Skaaa: The linux one? | 07:42 |
| bob2 | nix000: oh, no, this project has been GPL since we started it | 07:42 |
| Skaaa | i am on the windows computer now | 07:42 |
| Skaaa | yeah | 07:42 |
| Jimbob | Ok | 07:42 |
| bob2 | nix000: tho it is a branch of an existing GPL codebase | 07:42 |
| geneo93 | nite all | 07:42 |
| tomas- | honestly, whether i sell software and have an install program that downloads some gpl libraries and utilizes them, or whether i distribute the software with the library already bundled (still doing an install, but ONLY avoiding an internet download by the user), there really is no genuine difference...but from what i understand the former is illegal, relating to GPL libraries and non-GPL commercial software | 07:42 |
| tomas- | that part i just dont get | 07:42 |
| Jimbob | Skaaa: Put the warty CD in the linux machine, and boot to the "boot:" or "linux" prompt (whatever it's called) | 07:42 |
| bob2 | tomas-: no, not illegal, but perhaps a breach of your license | 07:42 |
| nix000 | bob2, and you got paid right from the begining ? | 07:42 |
| Jimbob | Skaaa: I'll walk you through fixing your linux box | 07:43 |
| Skaaa | ok | 07:43 |
| Skaaa | thanks : ) | 07:43 |
| bob2 | tomas-: you need to go read the GPL FAQ, it sounds like you're just linking to GPL code from a GPL-incompatible program | 07:43 |
| Jimbob | Skaaa: np | 07:43 |
| Skaaa | live cd right? | 07:43 |
| bob2 | nix000: hm, we started on the project after I started working here, so yeah | 07:43 |

| Jimbob | Skaaa: How did you install warty on the machine (or did you?) | 07:43 |
| Tugg | tomas-, its not about what is legal, it is what is best for the community, if we all give back then we can all reap the benefits, the only losers are those in redmond | 07:43 |
| nix000 | bob2, ok ... what is the project anyway ? | 07:44 |
| Skaaa | in the mail my friend got a box of like 100 cds | 07:44 |
| Skaaa | of warty | 07:44 |
| bob2 | nix000: bazaar.canonical.com | 07:44 |
| Skaaa | and gave me one cause i needed an OS for the comp i built out of broken computers | 07:44 |
| Skaaa | i used an install cd | 07:44 |
| Tugg | if the big nix's like redhat, debian, suse never contributed back then we wouldnt be using ubuntu today | 07:44 |
| Jimbob | Skaaa: OK, put the CD you used into the machine | 07:44 |
| claint | bob2: ok, now to come back to the XF86Config thingie. you have said that the hoary doesnt use it. seems like my warty's not using it as well. so where/how do you set your resolutions/X now? | 07:45 |

| Skaaa | oh wait now, it didnt find the boot CD either, my mother board is having a problem im guessing | 07:45 |
| tomas- | yeah, its purely linking, but where do you draw the line? can it be distributed in the same binary .tgz file? can it reside in the same directory on the server? must it be different servers? no matter what, there is no MORE profit taken from the work that the original authors of the GPL software did, whether bundled in the same downloadable file versus installed from separate files, separate servers | 07:45 |
| Skaaa | this is a harware issue i think | 07:45 |
| claint | bob2: or could you give me a link.... about it. | 07:45 |

| stephen_ | hi, how do i mount my usb hard drive? | 07:45 |
| stephen_ | it's a USB HD | 07:45 |
| Tugg | tomas-, you dont have to bundle it you just have to offer it | 07:45 |
| Jimbob | Skaaa: (of course, I've no idea :-)) | 07:45 |
| tomas- | Tugg, yeah well then why not make it easy for all the software people at microsoft to start up their own small businesses using GPL? | 07:45 |
| tomas- | Tugg, huh? | 07:46 |
| Tugg | like if I sent you an email and said, can I get the sorce you use, you would be like sure here it is | 07:46 |
| stephen_ | can someone help me? | 07:46 |
| bob2 | claint: nevermind | 07:46 |

| Jimbob | Skaaa: where "working" == "booting into linux"? | 07:46 |
| === stephen_ is now known as LinUXo | ||
| bob2 | tomas-: it's believed that linking crosses that line, but it hasn't yet gone to court, so no one really knows | 07:46 |

| === stephen__ [~stephen@p169l21lp-d4-dynamic.xDSL-1mm.sentex.ca] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| bob2 | claint: nevermind. hoary uses X.org, which uses a different config file. warty uses xfree86, which uses the file you have. | 07:47 |
| Tugg | that is why we have the GPL | 07:47 |
| stephen__ | how do i mount a USB hard drive in Ubuntu? | 07:47 |
| Skaaa | "working" == does not display message "I hate you louie" | 07:47 |
| Tugg | so you cant take and not give | 07:47 |
| nix000 | bob2, the closest i came across was from stellation an eclipse hosted project | 07:47 |
| Skaaa | ok boot CD is working | 07:47 |
| Jimbob | Uh, OK | 07:47 |
| stephen__ | how do i mount a USB hard drive in Ubuntu?? | 07:47 |
| claint | bob2: hmmm, odd, because i am not getting the resolutions in the file. | 07:47 |
| Skaaa | hard drive isnt | 07:47 |
| Jimbob | Ok | 07:47 |
| stephen__ | how do i mount a USB hard drive in Ubuntu?! | 07:47 |
| crimsun | stephen__: pmount stuff | 07:47 |
| crimsun | stephen__: or just plug it in | 07:48 |
| stephen__ | pmount what? | 07:48 |
| Tugg | thats why companies like netgear are in getting sued by the FSF, because they used GPL code and dont release the source | 07:48 |
| bob2 | nix000: monotone uses sqlite | 07:48 |
| crimsun | stephen__: pmount /dev/sda1 stuff | 07:48 |
| stephen__ | FUCKING WROTE THIS DOWN and GAY ASS Computer SAY it can go bye bye | 07:48 |
| bob2 | stephen__: stop it | 07:48 |
| Jimbob | Skaaa: OK, when the little "boot" prompt comes up on the CD, type expert | 07:48 |
| Skaaa | okay | 07:48 |
| stephen__ | do u kno whow to? | 07:48 |
| tomas- | this is honestly a nightmare, not that gpl is horrible, its just got some confusing logic to it that just doesnt make sense in some situations..sometimes reality can steer away from intentions and turn to hell | 07:48 |
| stephen__ | it involed using the windows folder | 07:48 |
| === hypa7ia [~leigh@HSE-Montreal-ppp104100.qc.sympatico.ca] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| Skaaa | thats going to happen in a second i think | 07:48 |
| stephen__ | started with pmount | 07:49 |
| crimsun | stephen__: does it not appear when you simply plug it in? | 07:49 |
| stephen__ | sda5 | 07:49 |
| stephen__ | No | 07:49 |
| crimsun | stephen__: then pmount /dev/sda5 stuff | 07:49 |
| bob2 | tomas-: anyway, you're way better off asking the FSF or opensource.org. good luck. | 07:49 |
| stephen__ | Of CouRsE nOt it never Has only in XP | 07:49 |
| stephen__ | i dont know that STUFF | 07:49 |
| tomas- | Tugg, so netgear releasing the source of the GPL stuff they have, or their OWN proprietary work? | 07:49 |
| bob2 | stephen__: please chill out | 07:49 |
| stephen__ | K | 07:49 |
| bob2 | claint: it turns out to not be as good an idea as you'd think | 07:49 |
| Tugg | tomas-, if you dont like the gpl then dont use the software, just like I dont like how microsoft puts limits on the use of there software, so I dont use it | 07:49 |
| claint | general questions then: in warty, would anyone care to guess why i get different lowres that i have in my XF86Config file? I have updated ... | 07:49 |
| Jimbob | Skaaa: Anyways, when it starts doing the "installer" stuff, hit CTRL+ALT+F2 -- it should say something like "Hit enter to start this console" | 07:50 |

| Dr_Willis | claint, sure its not looking at the xorg.conf file? | 07:50 |
| stephen__ | ANYONE | 07:50 |
| bob2 | tomas-: they comply with the GPL by releasing any GPL software they modify or link with | 07:50 |
| Jimbob | Skaaa: Hit enter | 07:50 |
| Skaaa | i passed it before, now its doing expert | 07:50 |
| Tugg | they have to release all gpl source code AND any modifications and changes made to that code | 07:50 |

| bob2 | stephen__: chill out, jeez | 07:50 |

| Jimbob | Skaaa: Anyways, when you get to the little "busybox#" prompt on the F2 console, lemme know | 07:50 |

| nix000 | bob2, what is the issue(s) ? | 07:51 |
| Skaaa | i think im there.... | 07:51 |
| claint | Dr_Willis: it is warty. | 07:51 |
| Tugg | if you use program foo then write program bar to work along side it (with out changing foo) then you can keep bar but you have to release foo | 07:51 |
| Skaaa | it says "Load SCSI Modules?" | 07:51 |
| stephen__ | yeah | 07:51 |
| stephen__ | bob2 yeah | 07:51 |
| Skaaa | and then enter full file names, etc | 07:51 |
| claint | Dr_Willis: since everyone has gone hoary it was probably a mistake installing warty. | 07:51 |
| Jimbob | Skaaa: Ok, hit CTRL+ALT+F2 | 07:51 |
| Jimbob | Skaaa: Is your HD an IDE or SCSI | 07:52 |
| Jimbob | ? | 07:52 |
| stephen__ | i was here before cuz of it and i wrote it down but it gone now. IT involded a folder i created called windows, sda5, ntfs | 07:52 |
| nix000 | bob2, even rational clearcase uses a db i heard . and its a darn prove it works to me. | 07:52 |
| bob2 | stephen__: does the disk have NTFS or HFS filesystems? | 07:52 |
| Skaaa | uhhhh | 07:52 |
| Skaaa | not sure | 07:52 |
| Dr_Willis | a usb drive should show up (check dmesg output) as a scsi device. ie : sdb, sdc, and so on.. you should be able to manually mount the thing wherever you want. the auto-mounting serivices may be getting confused. | 07:52 |
| stephen__ | NtFs | 07:52 |
| bob2 | nix000: rational is kinda massively over-engineered, tho | 07:52 |
| Skaaa | but alt ctrl f2 did not give response | 07:52 |

| sono | crimsun: could it be a gconf2 related issue? as the sound works perfectly at gdm? | 08:01 |
| Jimbob | Skaaa: You can search that output by doing "ls | grep (hda.*|ide)" | 08:02 |
| stephen__ | What Could I Try | 08:02 |
| dmn | anybody know which software can check grammar? i've aspell to check spelling. | 08:02 |

| stephen__ | sudo? | 08:09 |
| Jimbob | Skaaa: May not have to | 08:09 |
| corza | so that you can piss around with ur machine stephen | 08:09 |
| stephen__ | ok | 08:09 |
| arnaud | Liberal_Tugboat, so, oss video drivers like open source software vide drivers | 08:09 |
| Jimbob | Skaaa: What I'm trying to do is find where your "/boot" is | 08:09 |
| stephen__ | so i type in sudo -s in terminal as root? or not as root? | 08:09 |
| Liberal_Tugboat | that is the DRI driver | 08:10 |
| nix000 | lol | 08:10 |
| corza | umm taht changes u to root stephen | 08:10 |
| arnaud | ok, but the free one | 08:10 |
| Jimbob | Skaaa: Typically on a fresh install it'll be in /dev/hda1 (the first partition on the first drive) | 08:10 |
| Skaaa | didnt really do anything | 08:10 |
| corza | it changes from normal user to root | 08:10 |
| Liberal_Tugboat | why do you need to switch? | 08:10 |
| Skaaa | read the drive for a while, i could tell by the sound it made, then nothing happened | 08:10 |
| stephen__ | o u mean in terminal SU root thingy? | 08:10 |
| corza | could anyone help me out with my mouse? | 08:10 |
| stephen__ | ya i can access my hd from terminal | 08:10 |
| Jimbob | Skaaa: Yeah, in linux shells, silence == success | 08:10 |
| corza | stephan__: yes | 08:10 |
| arnaud | Liberal_Tugboat, because some things work with fglrx driver, and some only with kernel's dri | 08:10 |
| crimsun | sono: do either/both work? | 08:10 |
| stephen__ | i want to access it literally | 08:10 |
| stephen__ | so i can CLICK my Movies | 08:11 |
| Skaaa | im used to pretty much the opposite | 08:11 |
| Skaaa | heh | 08:11 |
| Jimbob | Skaaa: Type "ls /media" to see that it created a bunch of directories | 08:11 |
| corza | stephen__: type "sudo -s" it'll ask u for a password when u type it in it'll get u to root | 08:11 |
| arnaud | Liberal_Tugboat, privateer remake for exmple won't work with fglrx :( | 08:11 |
| Skaaa | thank god you are helping me | 08:11 |
| stephen__ | I know | 08:11 |
| corza | could anyone help me with my mouse? | 08:11 |
| Liberal_Tugboat | you could just have to xorg.conf files and switch those | 08:11 |

| Jimbob | Skaaa: np | 08:12 |
| Skaaa | when i typed that, it shows hda1 hda2 hda3 hda4 in a bluish color | 08:12 |
| arnaud | Liberal_Tugboat, the problem is that special libraries are needed for ati's opengl and those libs don't work with DRI driver | 08:12 |
| Liberal_Tugboat | one xorg.conf could be for the DRI, the other for glrx | 08:12 |
| Jimbob | Yeah, the blue is the "folder" color | 08:12 |

| BilDo | ic. | 08:43 |
| claint | Liberal_Tugboat: yeah, i am rather amazed myself. | 08:43 |
| BilDo | Should i move back to Windows? | 08:43 |

| syn-ack | hah | 08:45 |
| syn-ack | hayden: That isnt too good of an idea | 08:45 |

| Liberal_Tugboat | WOOHOO!! Kubuntu made the top 100 on distrowatch | 08:47 |
| === joshua__ loathes kde | ||
| syn-ack | joshua__: same here. :) | 08:47 |
| Liberal_Tugboat | everyone needs to go click the kubuntu link on distrowatch, eventually ubuntu can be #1 and #2 | 08:48 |
| joshua__ | Is Ubuntu already number 1? It certainly should be. All the 'easy' distros take up the top few, and Ubuntu blows any other 'easy' distrobution out of the water. It's actually a good operating system. | 08:48 |
| Liberal_Tugboat | (and gentoo can fall out of the top 10) | 08:48 |
| hayden | ok its working thanks guys | 08:48 |
| Liberal_Tugboat | it is #2 only needa 84 more hits for day to overtake mandrake | 08:49 |
| syn-ack | Liberal_Tugboat: Theres nothing wrong with Gentoo. I run that too | 08:49 |
| syn-ack | ;) | 08:49 |
| Liberal_Tugboat | it beat it out for a week once | 08:49 |
| Liberal_Tugboat | syn-ack, I cant stand most of the elitist gentoo users | 08:49 |

| syn-ack | Liberal_Tugboat: You're just talking to the wrong users is all | 08:50 |
| joshua__ | I don't realy see how compiling it for your machine realy helps that much. Compiling something for 386 as compared to 686 doesn't make all /that/ much of a difference. | 08:50 |
| Liberal_Tugboat | the time they save will never make up for all the time they have to compile | 08:50 |

| joshua__ | Portage is cool. I'd rather apt by far tho. Still, to each his own. I'm not going to be the asshole who demands everyone use wha the likes. :) | 08:51 |

| Liberal_Tugboat | I like having an entire system in 20 mins | 08:51 |

| joshua__ | Debian rocks. I don't see any advantage of it over ubuntu for my purposes tho. Just because Ubuntu has the advantages debain would have for me + easier to install + 6 month releases. | 08:52 |
| Liberal_Tugboat | joshua__, because gentoo is install piece by peice, you can put it on just about ANY computer or device | 08:52 |
| joshua__ | I see. :) | 08:53 |
| Liberal_Tugboat | from big servers all the way down to or crappy computers | 08:53 |
| syn-ack | Liberal_Tugboat: Guess what, you can do that with Debian too. | 08:53 |

| hayden | Liberal_Tugboat: thats its downfall for regular desktop users though isnt it | 08:53 |
| jdub | guys, this is way off-topic here :-) | 08:53 |

| === joshua__ apologies. :) | ||
| === syn-ack refrains. | ||
| Liberal_Tugboat | yeah gentoo just isnt easy enough and it take forever to get a system running | 08:54 |
| jdub | Liberal_Tugboat: elsewhere please | 08:54 |
| syn-ack | Liberal_Tugboat: what are your system specs? | 08:54 |

| sono | crimsun: if I stop esd, restart manually and operate apps normally, everything works perfectly | 09:40 |

| sono | crimsun: but, when I open the gnome volume control (non sense I know)... BLAM! The sound stream get's corrupted with this 2-bits like distortion | 09:41 |
| tomcat | Hey all, I've got a general question here. Linux newbie... I've got ubuntu up and running and I'm pretty happy... but here's what I'd like to do... be able to just throw an old (fat32 or ntfs) drive in and be able to access it. Is this possible without a terrible amount of hassle? | 09:41 |
| Liberal_Tugboat | http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/RestrictedFormats | 09:42 |
| Liberal_Tugboat | that is the right wiki page | 09:42 |
| crimsun | sono: aha! I experience that issue as well. I will have to test that in the morning. | 09:42 |
| sabmoc | crimsun, whats your development environment? | 09:42 |
| sono | obviously, the alsa mixer shows no mixer elements... something which makes sense crimsun | 09:42 |
| Liberal_Tugboat | tomcat, ya, just use the CLI to mount it | 09:42 |
| crimsun | sabmoc: generally C or C++ | 09:42 |
| Liberal_Tugboat | NTFS writing is not supported thought | 09:42 |
| Liberal_Tugboat | read is ok | 09:42 |
| sabmoc | crimsun, what sort of apps do you use when your working? | 09:42 |
| crimsun | sabmoc: gdb, vi, and mozilla-firefox | 09:43 |
| tomcat | Lib_tug: then I could put it in and when linux boots up I can use 'mount'? | 09:43 |
| sono | I was skimming through the alsa-base script.... r u the author crimsun? | 09:43 |
| crimsun | sono: no | 09:43 |
| Liberal_Tugboat | sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/hdwhateve /media/ntfs | 09:43 |
| sabmoc | crimsun, maybe I should learn vi one of these days, trouble is that I started with emacs | 09:43 |
| crimsun | sabmoc: *emacs are fine tools | 09:44 |
| Liberal_Tugboat | you can use the fstab file to auto mount the drive | 09:44 |
| crimsun | (old habits die hard) | 09:44 |
| tomcat | Lib_tug: is there any command to tell what format it's in? | 09:44 |
| sabmoc | crimsun, yes indeed, but its not for everything | 09:44 |

| bob2 | zyga: I don't know, fonts are one of the many linux things I don't understand very well | 11:04 |

| bob2 | there was a package called libgdkxft0 in Debian for that, but it's really gross | 11:21 |
| claint | ubuntu follows debian's social contract, right? | 11:21 |
| hazza96 | If I install Hoary and then just keep it up to date will it be the same as when Hoary is released? | 11:21 |

| === Corvus [Corvus@85.86.233.133] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| HiddenWolf | ren0: what fixes it for you is using xine instead of gstreamer (different decoders/backends for media players) totem-gstreamer is part of the default install, uninstalling it (which you do when you install totem-xine) also removes ubuntu-desktop, which is a package that gets updated every time ubuntu gets updated. By not having ubuntu-desktop installed your risk breaking the system if you dist-upgrade. | 12:17 |
| HiddenWolf | ren0: thus, I'd reccomend re-installing ubuntu-desktop and installing a different xine media player, such as gxine or xineui | 12:18 |
| ren0 | ok. thanks. | 12:18 |
| topyli | ren0: at minimum, do this before upgrading to the next ubuntu release | 12:19 |

| corza | bob2, lol sorry.. umm i'm having trouble with my mp3 files in rhythembox | 01:20 |
| bob2 | laxise: umask tells the kernel how to set the permissions when it mounts it, the two 0's are for backup stuff, iirc | 01:20 |
| bob2 | just leave them as 0 | 01:20 |

| monkey89 | stazz, ugh, terminology. | 02:39 |
| stazz | monkey89: what is this tool? I'm sure you could run it under ubuntu as well. | 02:39 |
| monkey89 | stazz, its titled "catalyst", a set of scripts that you can use to generate a livecd with spec files. | 02:39 |
| monkey89 | stazz, it may very well be able to, but I don't feel like going through the hassle of getting it to work when a chroot should work fine | 02:40 |
| stazz | monkey89: well I think catalyst would require portage too.. so chroot would be the only option for that.. | 02:40 |
| stazz | monkey89: but you propably could do a similar trick with debootstrap | 02:40 |
| monkey89 | stazz, actually... hehe, I think it doesn't need portage since it operates entirely in a chroot | 02:40 |
| stazz | monkey89: but portage is the gentoo method of fetching packages, I'm sure catalyst depends on it. I mean, you need to have portage in the chrooted environment | 02:41 |
| monkey89 | stazz, thats my point, I'm actually pretty sure you don't - it builds everything off of older stages, and the older stages contain portage | 02:42 |
| stazz | monkey89: the stages don't have a portage snapshot in them | 02:42 |
| stazz | monkey89: but you're in no way interested in creating a debian livecd? | 02:42 |
| monkey89 | stazz, no, but catalyst uses another one and untars it before starting the build | 02:42 |
| monkey89 | and I have a lot of specs to refer to w/ gentoo and catalyst is pretty nice with the automatic system, its something I've been working with for some time | 02:43 |
| stazz | monkey89: ok. | 02:43 |
| monkey89 | thanks for the help though :) | 02:43 |
| stazz | monkey89: the gentoo livecd's are a bit clumsy imo.. I'd really really go for a debian-based :) | 02:43 |
| Skid | configure: error: installation or configuration problem: C++ compiler cannot create executables. <-- how can I fix this please? | 02:43 |

| fgx | anyone here having problem with mtrr overlapping in /var/log/messages ? | 02:45 |
| monkey89 | stazz, well of course, they aren't livecds as much as they are installcds... the point is, I'm making my own with whatever packages I want... its not based of anything, its from scratch | 02:45 |
| stazz | monkey89: ad all the hassle with compiling. building a debian based "from scratch" would be faster, quicker, nicer, cleaner and more tested | 02:45 |
| mseney | i have setup a webserver using ubuntu & apache at my house and once it was setup i took the keyboard, mouse, and monitor off it and packed it away for space reasons. I can ssh into it for stuff but i would like to be able to somehow export a gedit session over to my main box so i can easily edit the html. how can i do this. i haven't figured out how to login to gnome remotely. | 02:45 |
| mseney | also i have webmin setup | 02:46 |
| monkey89 | stazz, it may be faster, but 1) I have absolutely no idea where to get started, as opposed to the months of experience i have with catalyst, and 2) probably not cleaner, since without USE flags I'll be getting a ton of extra dependencies I don't need | 02:46 |
| will | how do i add a kernel module option, to example snd-intel8x0 | 02:46 |
| stazz | monkey89: ah well. true. http://www.e-aiyama.com/~toshi/Computer/Linux/LiveCD.html | 02:46 |
| monkey89 | will, in /etc/modprobe.d, make a file named whatever yuo want and add options snd-intel8x0 blah=blah | 02:46 |
| monkey89 | stazz, nothing about X referred to - thats the more difficult part, autologin as a regular user and setting up the desktop environment | 02:47 |
| will | monkey89: thanks! | 02:47 |
| stazz | monkey89: you'd propably need to try ddcxinfo-knoppix, it's available in portage.. it's the tool knoppix uses to autoprobe X settings | 02:47 |

| zooko | I suppose synaptic and its ilk reproduce some of their functionality -- I haven't used synaptic enough to know., | 03:04 |
| mz_ | corza, the file extension really only tells you the sort of container format the file's using (e.g. avi or mov), beside which you need the codec that the file is using (e.g. mpeg4, divx...) | 03:04 |

| apokryphos | loaofwar3: features for *what*? I think KDE has a lot more features, and actually I think this is one thing Gnome users would agree with me on. I've seen a lot of people complain that KDE has too many options and is thus "bloated". :) | 04:15 |
| Dr_Willis | WeirdAl, i think thats in the settings somewhere. | 04:15 |

| njs12345 | you only need to remember one password | 04:41 |

| kotatsu | LuckyStrike: it's easy to enable root and disable user sudo access | 04:41 |
| njs12345 | if you really don't like sudo, then `sudo passwd root` | 04:42 |
| zooko | There is a web page on ubuntu.com or somewhere explaining the rationale for no-root-only-sudo. | 04:42 |
| LuckyStrike | so root user is complicated, normal user is easier | 04:42 |
| LuckyStrike | yes i have done that | 04:42 |
| ogra | LuckyStrike, you shouldnt youse a unsafe PW for your user :-P | 04:42 |
| kotatsu | LuckyStrike: someone who actually cares about the issue will have enough knowledge to set things up how they want | 04:42 |

| WeirdAl | Oh ... Cedega is commercial | 04:44 |
| loaofwar3 | can someone help me? | 04:44 |
| ogra | so it adds a second threshold | 04:44 |
| LuckyStrike | yeah i see that | 04:44 |
| loaofwar3 | i was wondering if i install hoary preview now, and then hoary comes out, all i need to do is just run apt-get upgrade? | 04:44 |
| zooko | Hm. When I connect from postfix to my relayhost's port 465, nothing happens. Later, if I restart postfix, then the relayhost's sendmail process says this: | 04:44 |

| kotatsu | loaofwar3: dist-upgrade, but yeah pretty much | 04:45 |
| LuckyStrike | but if i only have one user as will be the case in most ubuntu systems then you know which user has root access anyway... | 04:45 |
| zooko | so it rather seems like my postfix is connecting , or beginning to connect, and then stalling indefinitely. | 04:45 |
| WeirdAl | Is there no free Cedega? | 04:45 |
| loaofwar3 | ok thanks! | 04:45 |
| ogra | LuckyStrike, not having root teaches you not tzo have a root console open all the time, it prevents you from breaking thing accidentially by typing in the wrong window... | 04:45 |

| Dr_Willis | there is the CVS version of Cedega - however its missing some features i belive | 04:46 |
| LuckyStrike | first issue is about discipline though, one should only su to root when doing something specific then exit after command is done | 04:46 |
| WeirdAl | What sort of features, Dr_Willis? | 04:46 |
| ogra | LuckyStrike, same goes for sudo ;) | 04:46 |
| kotatsu | the main problem I see with default sudo access is that tty_tickets doesn't protect against multiple programs launched on your desktop | 04:46 |
| Dr_Willis | WeirdAl, stuff for cd copy protection verification i do belive | 04:47 |
| WeirdAl | Oh. | 04:47 |

| keyhack | It's annoying how the fglrx cannot work with composite, and ati works with composite but its extremely slow | 05:18 |
| kotatsu | InitMass: the open source ati driver works better with a framebuffer console too... ati proprietary driver has issues with screen corruption (although it doesn't lock up the computer like it did in the past) | 05:18 |

| keyhack | InitMass: fglrx | 05:20 |

| keyhack | kotatsu: fglrx works great for me | 05:20 |
| Mellar | ITAY: only kde and gnome is the difference | 05:20 |
| kotatsu | using the FOSS radeon driver gives me a working framebuffer console and proper composite support (although alpha still doesn't work) | 05:20 |

| keyhack | InitMass: the umm, prelease | 05:21 |

| keyhack | kotatsu: what is that | 05:22 |
| jdub | ITAY: not sure, it depends on what we decide to do wrt kde and gnome releases; this time around they've been very fortunately close | 05:22 |
| ogra | corza, there is a list withmirrors anywhere on the website | 05:22 |
| kotatsu | keyhack: ah, ok =) a framebuffer console allows you to run your text console in supported vesa modes | 05:23 |
| corza | ogra, which website ubuntu? | 05:23 |
| ogra | yup | 05:23 |
| ogra | which else ? | 05:23 |
| kotatsu | keyhack: in the case of radeonfb (the radeon framebuffer kernel module) you can also run in nonstandard modes... my text console behind X is 1280x800 | 05:23 |

| mebaran151 | which cell phones sync with Evolution | 05:24 |
| vixus | Hey, Ubuntu is back to its full today. =) | 05:24 |
| kotatsu | keyhack: of course, it's still an improvement over the old fglrx, where switching down to a framebuffer console would lock up the computer | 05:24 |
| keyhack | kotatsu: well I didnt know you can make the text console outside X run at a different resolution | 05:24 |

| apokryphos | ITAY: KDE is version 3.4 in Kubuntu | 05:27 |

| Mellar | ITAY: if the version number isnt in red, its stable | 05:28 |
| kotatsu | keyhack: nope, you'll have to reconfigure the package that actually contains the kernel... for me, it's "linux-image-2.6.10-5-686" | 05:28 |
| keyhack | kotatsu: even so, this does not help me get Composite working lol | 05:28 |
| apokryphos | hayden: upload things to others :P; leave active torrents. | 05:28 |
| kotatsu | keyhack: nope hehe | 05:28 |
| InitMass | keyhack, ok you started off with hoary already from the beginning | 05:28 |
| kotatsu | keyhack: only way to get compositing on ati right now is to use "radeon" or "ati" in your xorg.conf file | 05:28 |
| ITAY | so 4.3.0rc is stable. but can I upgrade it to 3.4.0? | 05:29 |

| keyhack | kotatsu: Two other people here are work are using ATI as their driver, and Composite is extremely slow | 05:29 |

| kain | michael, ok | 07:14 |

| akk | UnbuntuBaby: You could try modprobe xircom_cb, and if that doesn't work, modprobe xircom_tulip_cb | 07:14 |
| Dr_Willis | akk, of course those may work.. could be the code he has is very old and not even riht any more | 07:14 |
| SeeleyUSMC | What packages do I need to get MP3 and DVD support in Hoary? My MP3's from Windows don't play and my DVD's won't play either. | 07:15 |

| Seveas | alterim, which card? | 07:16 |
| akk | Dr_Willis: My guess is that UnbuntuBaby's xircom is too old to work with those _cb drivers, though. | 07:17 |

| Dr_Willis | akk, yep.. | 07:17 |

| kain | np | 08:18 |
| kkathman | and some network things arent the same under xfce as they were under Gnome | 08:18 |
| megabyte405 | kkathman, you can run the XFCE window manager under the rest of GNOME, and it will speed things up | 08:18 |
| kkathman | megabyte405: Interesting, can you explain how I might do that? | 08:19 |
| megabyte405 | install XFCE not as default, then run in a gnome terminal killall metacity && xfwm4 & | 08:19 |
| smouche | kkathman, konsole (I think that's what it's called) is very configurable, like Eterm. Don't know whether one can uses it in gnome though. It's fast and pretty. Don't see why not | 08:19 |
