The iTunes Music Store actually sells songs without DRM. While iTunes adds DRM to your purchases, PyMusique does not." [12:31] mrph, does AMSN crash often with other people? [12:32] Dalk-Away, carlitos@gfit0:~ $ sudo apt-cache search postgresql8 [12:32] carlitos@gfit0:~ $ [12:32] dabugas hehe ok :p [12:32] is there any software to safely take away hardware from a laptop like slimline drives, batteries and so on ? [12:32] carlitos: no, 7.4.7 is [12:32] synd, the guy's a pain in the ass for the whole Big Business cartel :p Am not forgiving myself for not have known about it before! [12:32] eruin, i know.. but i need 8... [12:32] Dalk-Away: has X ever crashed on you? i've had xmms crash on occasion, but X is mighty hard to fuck up (ie, i've never done it and i've reaaaaly tried :) [12:32] that command i gave searches for a package. no output means no package. [12:32] the reason I was wondering about going with no desktop for a small multimedia box is so at least more ram is free to use toward movies/music [12:32] does anyone know of an MSG replacement for Linux, other than aMSN (which doesnt look very good) or GAIM (im using it now. its ok). I would like it to firsty look like a recent one and have voice and webcam capabilities (but these arent really needed, just a bonus) [12:32] Dalk-Away, is it on your output of apt? [12:32] PecK: so you're just tryin to get Ubuntu to read *.m4a, correct? [12:32] its only a rough idea..might not even bother trying it [12:32] carlitos, download a .deb file from the internet? then use dpkg -i to install it [12:32] black_Nightmare:what's your system? [12:32] ill check [12:33] PecK, I agree.. he's been a hassle for Apple [12:33] synd yeah [12:33] is there one?.. [12:33] black_Nightmare: for the "multimedia box" you're describing [12:33] dabugas, X crashes every now and then for me... but almost always thats because of a game (like armyops) crashing [12:33] synd, plus he's the Dvd ripping guy. Not only for Apple :) [12:33] haha, true. [12:33] Dalk-Away: aaah, like i was saying to eruin, i don't really play games === TongMaster [~TongMaste@home.waugh.id.au] has joined #ubuntu [12:34] Dalk-Away: never seen armyops crash here [12:34] X shouldn't crash often, if ever really [12:34] there isnt a AAC decoder for linux? [12:34] unles syou overload it [12:34] yes, faac [12:34] it's installed [12:34] faad isn't it? [12:34] It's not crashed for me while using Ubuntu :) [12:35] *.m4a is AAC.. right? [12:35] 349 [12:35] who sees that [12:35] yeap [12:35] how can I get distutils [12:35] but it's not reading it? [12:35] Dalk-Away: X always seems to consume half my memory but the damn thing is always up... i mean, i've really tried to crash it... [12:35] carlitos, not in my repositories either. Check out google for a .deb package of it if you can, then dpkg -i to install [12:35] but in my particular case it's iTunes encoded m4a. maybe makes a difference [12:35] Heh, X takes ALOT of memory yeah - slows me down alot sometimes [12:35] Aha. [12:35] kbrooks: distutils is included with python [12:35] though thats mostly gnome or kde's fault [12:35] eruin, faad and faac I think. Have both in any case :p [12:35] dabugas..dunno but it'll be whatever hardware I find cheap.... any ATX board...250W or smaller ATX psu...dvd decoder pci card [cheap too] ...agp or pci vga card for at least a good movie res....realtek ethernet card [isa or pci] ....any cheap ide hd large enough...used 16x dvdrom [12:35] AFK [12:35] hmm, I never touch swap [12:35] shoulda downloaded them with PyMusique ! : P [12:36] Dalk-Away, there doesnt seems to be one.. [12:36] you don't have much ram do you? :P [12:36] lol synd [12:36] LCACaptain, no it isnt [12:36] kbrooks: you may need to install python-dev [12:36] what is a good FTP client and server ? I like FileZilla but its not in th' apt repositories [12:36] jas_MHz, are you using Gnome? [12:36] jas_MHz as client I like ncftp [12:36] jas_MHz, that's because its not for linux [12:36] jas_MHz, I just use the one that comes with it [12:36] jas_MHz: for a client, check out gftp [12:36] i am using gnome [12:37] black_Nightmare: look, one of the reasons worth switching from windows to linux is the dvd playback on a default warty install i got xine (xine-ui is not actually default, but use that, it's better than totem) to run DVDs without any frame-rate loss on 1024x768 on 24 bit. [12:37] housetier and grogoreo and gratuit: DUDE [12:37] kbrooks: to install a python application, you usually use "python setup.py install" or something similar [12:37] jas: samba ? i dunno [12:37] if I install development release, can I upgrade it to final when it comes out? without re-installing again?

[12:39] scizzo: you're kidding me right === eruin hides [12:39] eruin: no [12:39] gftp is good but what about an ftp server [12:39] <^thehatsrule^> dabugas, actually win98... long ago [12:39] eruin: try it [12:39] black_Nightmare: actually i've decided that dvds play as follows: they either do or don't. the former case is linux, the latter is windows [12:39] PecK, ie. the ones you bought from the iTMS [12:40] synd, all are ripped from cd's, don't think they're protected. don't have any from iTMS [12:40] does gnome have anything like k3b? [12:40] <^thehatsrule^> you just do a cache and its fine [12:40] oh! [12:40] i misunderstood [12:40] grogoreo: There is gnomebaker [12:40] grogoreo: graveman? [12:40] unless it's the default option in iTunes [12:40] grogoreo: Fairly good but it has a fair bit to go [12:40] ^thehatsrule^: i'm not an insane techie or anything but to get DVDs to play in windows i had to close everything (incl. explorer) and use 640x480 16-bit. [12:40] hmm.. but the faac wont play them? [12:40] lol, scizzo, Pizbit thanks for pointing that out to me.. I would've never thought of that :P [12:40] <^thehatsrule^> LOL [12:40] <^thehatsrule^> maybe it was my great video card hehe [12:40] my friend runs fedora core 3 and plays AAC files [12:40] synd, complicated a lot for nothing then huh? still got to know about PyMusique, will be google-alert-aware to that now :p [12:40] <^thehatsrule^> ATI 8mb <3 [12:40] Pizbit, scizzo, how do they comare to k3b, cause k3b is really really good (in my opinion!) [12:41] grogoreo: why not try them or look at the websites for them? [12:41] Grock: gnomebaker is much better imo [12:41] grogoreo: Not as fully featured, but works a lot simpler imho [12:41] ^thehatsrule^: my friend you were fucking lucky, i have a (borrowed) geforce 440 mx and a (bought... spend a lot of dosh on this) TEAC DVD-R [12:41] grogoreo: everything depends on how you like applications also you know...

[12:42] Peck, haha. but yeah, the default for encoding with iTunes is AAC. it's actually a much better format because it has better quality than mp3 and is smaller.. [12:42] ohwell [12:42] <^thehatsrule^> sorta like a hard-drive cache [12:42] ^thehatsrule^: a bit...

[06:17] I've been using linux for like.. 8 or 9 years.. and debian since 7... even though I guess I could consider myself an expert in how my system works, I am looking forward to installing and using more modern distributions that dont need as much lowlevel mantenience in the desktop area, as in.. that detects my devices/xserver/camera/wacom/usbstorage/etc without me having to deal with the filesystem and commandline for each thing. This way I can also [06:17] say i've got cancer or something :D [06:17] learn to introduce moreinexperienced people to linux...

[06:19] reduz, ubuntu is debian based, but it has its own official repositories. It is not wise to mix debian repos with ubuntu [06:19] <_b> how do I set things up, can I, so I can use that home directory?

[11:36] the reason i use it over debian is because of stable releases happen more often than debians [11:36] ubuntu release every 6 months [11:37] light_punch2: if you like debian, ubuntu is pretty much a fixed version of unstable + ubuntu goodies [11:37] so u're guaranteed the bleeding edge [11:37] I am having a problem that when ever is leave my screen to idle 30min i get loged out [11:37] i am currently using slackware [11:37] heh [11:37] i installed eterm [11:37] its a lot faster [11:37] ;) [11:37] Six months is a long time, stu.

[11:38] True, but there are faster distros. [11:38] yeah, debian don't release a lot [11:38] ...They just aren't as well-supported. [11:39] reason I like ubuntu is cos of the hardware support [11:39] out the box [11:39] seb128: i guess you would be the best guy to know my problem?

[05:27] yeo hoary is like testing now [05:27] apokryphos, in debian terms it would be testing [05:27] I want unstable :) [05:27] there is not yet an equivalent of that [05:28] cartman: You'll have to wait for Breezy ;-) [05:28] apokryphos, no [05:28] breezy will be the next testing [05:28] hmm [05:28] hmmm [05:28] confussiiing :) === xamdm [~xamdm@pD954E85C.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #ubuntu [05:28] just let us use unstable in sources.list [05:28] and I would be happy [05:28] grumpy (an ubuntu project to be) will be unstable [05:28] cartman, but the packages in Hoary are very recent [05:28] cartman, many would :) === JDahl [~qwerty@ca-stmnca-cuda4-gen2u1-63.vnnyca.adelphia.net] has joined #ubuntu [05:29] MidnightDevil: if you're running Hoary, you should be able to install python-gnome2-extras. Make sure your package list is current; refresh/reload as necessary. [05:29] tritium: ah I want unstable things like gcc4 :D [05:29] cartman, and that's why there will be grumpy [05:29] tritium: gcc4 in hoary is old [05:29] sory.. but how o I eject my cd rom? [05:29] Seveas: not sure if your terminology fits some things on the site, where hoary is (at least, was) called unstable. [05:29] Seveas: cool [05:29] cusco: eject /dev/cdrom [05:29] oh [05:29] Vexer, http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/RootSudo [05:29] apokryphos, that's because hoary isn't stable [05:29] cartman: from 1 March, 2005? [05:29] that's ubuntu terms === Jesterace [~jesterace@blk-222-247-95.eastlink.ca] has joined #ubuntu [05:29] randabis, thanks [05:29] cartman, was refering to debian terminology though [05:30] crimsun: its March 29 now so thats ooold :) === alterim [~chatzilla@82-32-28-192.cable.ubr04.azte.blueyonder.co.uk] has joined #ubuntu [05:30] cartman, you're not serious, are you?

[05:31] then python-gnome2-extras [05:31] alterim: perhaps if you just ask your question [05:31] rather than griping [05:31] its installing :) [05:31] thank you!! [05:31] cartman, no java by default [05:31] tried this method a few times [05:31] legal issues [05:31] what would be soo cool.. [05:31] is if someone who actually knows what they are talking, offers to give me some proper help [05:31] Seveas: which makes me wonder how other distros get by :P [05:31] alterim, i'll try [05:31] Seveas: yes but I mean tomcat with a dependency on java would work on people who gets java elsewhere [05:31] cos the average linux persons definition of help is 'say whatever i'm feeling at the time' [05:32] tomcat is free software :( [05:32] apokryphos, java is difficult legal fields [05:32] 'and state it like it's gospel' [05:32] cartman, yes but it wouldnt get through the buildd's since they dont have java [05:32] i'm still trying to understand how synaptic manages to install software, from a cd, with the cd not in the drive [05:32] Seveas: but debian has a tomcat pack. how come? [05:32] cd is only repository [05:32] Seveas: any idea on release date for Grumpy? === dud [~moo@80.202.216.64] has joined #ubuntu [05:33] alterim, in the linux world there are often multiple answers to the same question [05:33] click ,refresh, packages appear from cd [05:33] alterim: cache [05:33] but cd not in drive [05:33] Seveas: whereabouts has this been anounced?

[05:35] but i though 'adding a cd' would mean simply telling apt that the cd is a source, not actually copying it's contents! [05:35] alterim, try apt-get clean [05:35] alterim: to truly test it do a sudo apt-get clean [05:35] what does that do? [05:35] die Seveas i win!!! mwuahaha!

[11:57] I have a Pentium 4. 512 Ram. === wurm is now known as wurm^away === WeirdAl boots DSL :-\ [11:57] ughh..thats way advanced compared to me here lol [11:58] Burgundavia - net install, md5sum checked, same setup installs fine to 3 other boxes [11:58] On my 2500+ with 1gig I still see really slow qemu performance [11:58] CarlK: hmm === fissy [~fissy@whitehillnet.plus.com] has joined #ubuntu [11:58] hmm I guess its not worth it then [11:58] OMG it's loaded the GUI [11:58] Burgundavia - same image will get to a diferent place and "stall" [11:58] black_Nightmare: what do you have? === billy-420 [~billy@c-67-188-30-48.hsd1.ca.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu [11:58] boosh [11:58] may as well as see if dosbox or something still can try load win95 [11:58] CarlK: sounds like harddrive to me [11:59] burgun... slot1 300Amhz [might upgrade..dunno..depends on pricing all the time so far] === terry97 [~Terry97@pcp07925502pcs.lwrnce01.in.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu [11:59] black_Nightmare, qemu is a bit sluggish but I will be using it mostly to muck around and practice for my LPI. [11:59] might consider a 1ghz soon -- not sure...no idea about budget lol [11:59] Burgundavia - I have another drive I can stick in, but first is there anything to check on the current state of the box? [11:59] CarlK: provided that you have tested the same cd on other machines. If you are comfortable with hardware, you migth want to try move the hdd to another box [11:59] hmm, talking about dosbox. how can I get sound from dosbox, it's complaining about ALSA, and I've killed esd [11:59] So I don't have to use my main ubuntu.
