| Bicchi | lunitik: i just heard good things about gentoo. but wasn' sure about it. | 01:36 |
| syn1 | apokryphos: i see | 01:36 |
| lunitik | Bicchi: if you're new to linux... gentoo is not for you | 01:37 |
| phxguy | leww1, /var/backups/xorg I've had to revert myself | 01:37 |
| monteiro | where can i execute a command when the system is starting ? | 01:37 |
| Flonne | Bicchi, if you go with Gentoo, you should be prepared to cruise forums for a while and learn to configure everything yourself; if you choose Ubuntu, you shouldn't have many problems. | 01:37 |
| Bicchi | lunitik: well, i have use mandrake before. | 01:37 |
| ^NightHawk^ | dont worry Flonne ... i'm a sysadmin and i put this machine on a production environment.. but i earn a headhache with it :P | 01:37 |
| leww1 | syn1: seriously man, i think my views might be biased. We had Mac OSX on iMacs and eMacs (both slower than a wet week) | 01:37 |
| lunitik | monteiro: /etc/rc2.d | 01:37 |
| treke | and if you're not new to linux gentoo probably isn't for you :) | 01:37 |
| leww1 | syn1: at school | 01:37 |
| lunitik | Bicchi: doesn't count | 01:37 |
| Flonne | Bicchi, Drake is a joke. | 01:37 |
| apokryphos | syn1: I wonder whether he uses KDE or GNOME etc ;) | 01:37 |
| Bicchi | flonne: by the way i have an amd64 is there good support for this architecture? | 01:37 |
| monteiro | lunitik : tks :) | 01:38 |
| caffinated | OS X wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't an attempt at hardware lock-in | 01:38 |
| lunitik | Bicchi: yes | 01:38 |
| lunitik | caffinated: attempt at? | 01:38 |
| apokryphos | Google results for "Linus uses KDE": 30. For GNOME: none. :| | 01:38 |
| phxguy | can anyone help with my dvd and xine? | 01:38 |
| caffinated | lunitik: it's not succeeding here, i don't own a mac ;) | 01:38 |
| syn1 | apokryphos: haha | 01:38 |
| lunitik | apokryphos: umm... thats kinda why he uses SuSE... | 01:38 |
| Bicchi | can i get kde instead of gnome? | 01:38 |
| Flonne | Bicchi, I run Gentoo for amd64. There were a number of problems configuring it. I've worked them all out, but I wouldn't recommend it if you don't already have considerable troubleshooting experience. | 01:38 |
| lunitik | Bicchi: yes... | 01:38 |
| syn1 | caffinated: is has to be.. | 01:38 |
| apokryphos | lunitik: He does? Right. | 01:39 |

| Dr_Aevil | black_nightmare: where is the dir now? | 02:33 |
| dave42345 | yay | 02:33 |
| ColdPack | why do you want to hibernate your PC as a boot option? | 02:33 |
| derek | dave42345: basically it gives a message about configuring nsdis and just hangs | 02:33 |
| derek | this time i hit ctrl-c as soon as it attempted to configure network card and all is well | 02:34 |
| derek | wlan is finicky on GNU/Linux in general | 02:34 |
| black_nightmare | the seti tar file is on desktop ---- and I have 'home' folder opened now as well.....want to move it :| | 02:34 |
| ColdPack | wlan has been trouble for me all the while | 02:34 |
| ColdPack | went back to hardwired for now | 02:34 |
| Dr_Aevil | black_nightmare: did you not untar the file? and want to move the dir rather than the file? | 02:34 |
| FR500 | ColdPack, it's not a boot option the thing is that it screwed after i messed up with menu.lst | 02:34 |

| derek | ah fsck | 02:35 |
| ColdPack | what did you change in grub? | 02:35 |

| raveneye | Xira, lucky you | 02:51 |
| Ratmann | Soo i started using Ubuntu, and linux :P, this week | 02:51 |
| raveneye | ive got one i cant use... | 02:51 |
| Ratmann | And i'm trying to get the main software i use running on Ubuntu | 02:51 |
| Flonne | Indeed. I remember you from yesterday. | 02:51 |
| Ratmann | http://www.softimage.com/products/xsi/v42/SysReqs/Linux.htm | 02:51 |
| Ratmann | Those are the requierments i need right now | 02:52 |
| Ratmann | A friend told me it can run | 02:52 |
| arrummzen_ | Does Ubuntu have a default root password or does it ask for one during the install? | 02:52 |
| Ratmann | Though when i tried to install it i ran across a few errors, it might be that i don't have some of those rpms and stuff | 02:52 |
| HrdwrBoB | arrummzen_: no and no | 02:52 |
| mjr | arrummzen_, root isn't enabled, sudo is to be used by default | 02:52 |
| geneo93 | arrummzen_: you can do sudo passwd root | 02:52 |
| Flonne | Ratmann, if you have a license and the software, you can try an RPM management tool called "alien". | 02:53 |
| Xira | raveneye, ive had this hp deskjet 722c... ill never get rid of it, most reliable printer ive ever had | 02:53 |
| Xira | for 8 years | 02:53 |
| meff | Ratmann: look into a app called 'alien' it might help if its only in rpm | 02:53 |
| MaRk-I | mjr: how come when I click configure button in networking tools it asks me for root pass?? | 02:53 |
| arrummzen_ | What do you mean? How do I become root? | 02:53 |
| Flonne | I think all of its requirements are satisfied by Ubuntu's base system. | 02:53 |
| Ratmann | I should just google "alien linux" ? | 02:53 |
| Xira | arrummzen_, sudo -s | 02:53 |
| meff | Ratmann: i betcha its in ubuntu.. not sure though. | 02:53 |
| Flonne | arrummzen_, try "sudo passwd root" if you really need root access, though sudo suffices for almost everything. | 02:54 |
| Ratmann | Yah i got a license of the software, though using the 30 day demo right now | 02:54 |
| arrummzen_ | Why would you do that? | 02:54 |
| arrummzen_ | Why would you make su not work? | 02:54 |
| Flonne | arrummzen_, the sudo password is the same as the password you used when creating your user. | 02:54 |
| mjr | MaRk-I, you mean in network-admin? If so, that's a bug, report it. | 02:54 |
| Flonne | arrummzen_, it's a security thing. Giving the average user full root is stupid. | 02:54 |

| fissy | when you do ifconfig, do you get the information you want? | 03:13 |
| mjr | EvilSporkMan, debian has active development; ubuntu simply does supported releases more often (and with some extras), though ubuntu does not support as many architectures nor as many packages as debian (the universe repository is basically unsupported, but mostly works) | 03:13 |

| fissy | point and click jacatone | 03:13 |
| revelater | jacatone, i have tried debian and had some problems with my graphics card and monitor, however this distro handles them the best so far | 03:13 |
| verden01 | if i want to add the universe repository do i just tick the box in synaptic with universe in it? | 03:14 |
| EvilSporkMan | mjr: what is supposed to be the advantage of a real "release"? I'm not clear. | 03:14 |
| caffinated | raveneye: the 'unrar' command has a switch to feed in a password. | 03:14 |
| drbombay43 | Well yellow too all, I have finally made it | 03:14 |
| mjr | EvilSporkMan, stability and support | 03:14 |
| raveneye | tried that caffinated | 03:14 |
| caffinated | raveneye: it's worth noting that there are more than one version of unrar. a free one, and a non-free one. | 03:14 |
| revelater | jacatone, programs install like debian with apt-get or a graphical package search like synaptic, very simple and easy to use and upgrade | 03:14 |
| EvilSporkMan | mjr: hmm...but isn't ubuntu updated in between releases just like debian and gentoo? (not so sure about mandrake et. al.) | 03:15 |
| caffinated | raveneye: if you're using the 'unrar' package, try using the 'unrar-nonfee' package | 03:15 |
| treke | EvilSporkMan: it's updated like debian is | 03:15 |
| caffinated | i've had better success with it | 03:15 |
| treke | if there is a critical bug then the bug is fixed | 03:15 |
| jacatone | Great, I'll definetly give a try then. Thanks. | 03:15 |
| treke | things aren't updated just for the fun of it | 03:15 |
| kbrooks | i need apt to be VERY verbose | 03:15 |
| EvilSporkMan | so the advantage is that i'm only six months of hacks away from a stable version at any given time, as opposed to a year | 03:15 |
| EvilSporkMan | or more ;) | 03:16 |
| revelater | jacatone, no prob | 03:16 |
| treke | in the debian case 2 or 3 years | 03:16 |
| Arnia | Plus each release cycle is synchronised to Gnome's release cycle so you're always up to speed with the desktop environment | 03:17 |
| EvilSporkMan | whereas with gentoo, stability has been thrown out the window? (I used to use gentoo, switched to debian, was pleased at the lack of a decrease in system performance) | 03:17 |
| Arnia | Which is handy | 03:17 |

| caffinated | Arnia: my only beef with it, is it needs a few more things in order to meet most people's general needs. the big ones that come to mind are the nonfree codecs which can't ship with it. somehow, that needs to be addressed in a simpler manner. | 03:28 |

| revelater | gbhat, did you blow your speakers? | 03:31 |
| terry97 | gbhat: have you increased the pcm gain that usually works for me | 03:31 |
| EvilSporkMan | caffinated, Dr_Aevil: step-by-step directions complete with screenshots | 03:31 |

| gbhat | revelater, they work when I boot into a different distro | 03:31 |

| DonL | I never did get mine working, lewwy | 03:31 |
| gbhat | terry97, already did that | 03:31 |
| caffinated | but it has to be very obvious | 03:31 |
| Bicchi | i am now tring the ubuntu live cd but the screen resolution is 1024x768 when i had selected 1600x1200 during setup. can i change it? | 03:31 |
| Dr_Aevil | caffinated: then you reach an impass. I'd personally prefer that they explain why they're not availalbe and convert people to the free software philosophy. | 03:31 |
| terry97 | ok | 03:31 |
| gbhat | terry97, thanks for the tip though | 03:32 |
| terry97 | np | 03:32 |
| EvilSporkMan | caffinated: pretty sure wgetting needed packages defeats the whole point of those licenses | 03:32 |
| caffinated | Dr_Aevil: most people don't care about free software though. they just want their stuff to run. | 03:32 |
| Dr_Aevil | caffinated: but that's exactly my point - the way it's going, that might be make you an accessory to their infringement. | 03:32 |

| caffinated | EvilSporkMan: well, it's not ubuntu shipping anything though. it's the user requesting said packages. | 03:32 |
| Dr_Aevil | caffinated: whether they care or not is not the issue, they can not care all they like - if they want to *understand* why it's not there then they will have to care enough to read a bit :) | 03:32 |

| holycow | having the redhat like [ok] is great | 03:35 |
| gbhat | revelater, how should I check that? lspci? lsmod? | 03:35 |
| Dr_Aevil | Arnia: I'm not sure, but isn't the DDA an implimentaion of a wider EU directive? hence it could even be the whole EU in one form or another | 03:35 |
| EvilSporkMan | mmkay...second plan. Make user find the installer. Provide magic "non-free software installer icon". User gets packages as the creator intended, drags package to "non-free software installer". Automatic install, license agreement displayed a la synaptic. | 03:35 |
| Arnia | Ironfrost: I'll find the cases when my partner (WCAG member) wakes up. There have been many cases settled out of court already. The RNIB is on the warpath | 03:35 |
| revelater | gbhat, not sure, i am new to linux but thats what it sounds like to me... | 03:35 |
| caffinated | anyhow, it might even be worthwhile to make a deal with the creators of divx/xvid to make a package available that installs easily in to ubuntu | 03:35 |
| gbhat | lsmod shows me that snd-via82xx is loaded | 03:36 |
| caffinated | it doesn't have to be IN ubuntu, it just needs to be easy | 03:36 |
| caffinated | i mean, divx doesn't ship with windows either, but it's easy to put in. | 03:36 |
| Dr_Aevil | EvilSporkMan: nope sadly not - there are those who want mere instructions, mere "manuals" of how to obtain infringing material or that facilitate infringement to give way to liabilty for those that give them. This is party the debate in the supreme court atm with the riaa and the p2p guys, - they provided the "means" to get at the copyrighted works, does that make them accessories to the acts of infringement committed by their users? | 03:36 |

| Arnia | caffinated: If it is the whole EU (and I do believe the EU is considering this legislation even if they don't have it already) then that's 480 million people. The UK deals with a huge quantity of financial services, all of which must comply. Its not that small | 03:36 |

| paulproteus | gbhat: PLD, right? | 03:37 |
| gbhat | PLF = Penguin Liberation Front | 03:37 |
| EvilSporkMan | Dr_Aevil: I think you're confusing the issue. It's not infringing to install the software on a linux system, it's just that the installer provided does not obey the filing idiosyncracies of each particular distribution | 03:37 |
| paulproteus | Ah. I was thinking of the Polished Linux Distribution. | 03:37 |

| DonL | I've got Warty | 03:39 |
| Dr_Aevil | EvilSporkMan: I'm sorry, I don't think I follow that last point you made. Isn't the whole point of the software not being available that it *is* potentially an infringement to install/use it? | 03:39 |

The thing about the likes of libdvdcss is that it potentially infringes (shudder) patents in the U.S. | 03:42 |

| Dr_Aevil | ok folks,there are 2 different issues here that are being talked over and I think they're confusing one another :) 1st - things with a non-free license, e.g. divx etc, there's nothing wrong at all with using them unless you violate the license which you must agree to - that license is non-free so it doesn't appear in ubuntu. 2nd - things that are intrinsically infringements of themselves, it's argued that things like libdvdcss is an infringement irrespective of | 03:46 |

| holycow | EvilSporkMan, i agree with that | 03:52 |
| EvilSporkMan | Dr_Aevil: a package is directly analogous to a windows installer | 03:52 |
| revelater | lewwy, disable | 03:52 |
| Dr_Aevil | EvilSporkMan: yep totally agree with you - the issue that's debated at the moment is totally about how much information people can legally give to other people to allow them to find infringing material | 03:52 |
| fissy | is there anything I should know before I install a kernel manually from kernel.org? | 03:52 |
| black_nightmare | I think I found one occupied pregame server....we'll see thou :p | 03:53 |
| DonL | You're braver than me, fissy | 03:53 |
| caffinated | EvilSporkMan: i'd disagree with that. big differences between a package in windows, and a package in linux. | 03:53 |

| moominski | is there any way to install Konqueror again? | 03:53 |
| caffinated | the biggest one being ease of installation | 03:53 |
| holycow | Dr_Aevil, the answer is: none | 03:53 |
| EvilSporkMan | caffinated: they're both easy. in windows, you just keep clicking until it installs | 03:53 |
| Dr_Aevil | holycow: someone best change the wiki then :P | 03:54 |
| holycow | just tell people: you haveto buy this for this reason | 03:54 |
| holycow | this is the price | 03:54 |
| caffinated | EvilSporkMan: right, but if a package isn't in your repositories, you have to use apt | 03:54 |
| holycow | and offer the player with the legal codecs | 03:54 |

| moominski | yes | 03:54 |

| caffinated | EvilSporkMan: the difference is one is intrinsincly easier than the other. it won't matter to you or i, but it will matter to others. | 03:55 |
| holycow | Dr_Aevil, ideally that should be moved off of ubuntu proper and onto some fansite | 03:55 |
| lewwy | revelater: no help there, soz | 03:55 |
| revelater | lewwy: temporarily | 03:55 |
| EvilSporkMan | caffinated: aren't you arguing that windows is fine on allowing installation of infringing software and packages aren't? | 03:56 |
| Dr_Aevil | holycow: but, in fairness, the issue is not fully resolved yet, plus they are in S.A | 03:56 |
| EvilSporkMan | caffinated: if that is the case, than we can effing write dpkg-gui | 03:56 |

| lewwy | package after package being installed via synaptic... | 03:57 |
| EvilSporkMan | the nice thing is that linux distros get treated like corporations...we have personal lives and we have official ubuntu work (by we I mean you, I am of course not officially involved with ubuntu) | 03:57 |
| caffinated | gratuit: but you can't install a .deb that you downloaded directly. | 03:57 |
| EvilSporkMan | gratuit: synaptic can install .debs? O_o | 03:57 |
| caffinated | not through synaptic, afaik | 03:57 |
| revelater | caffinated: thats a good idea, eliminate command line installs all together... | 03:57 |

| Ringwraith` | mathmatt, or some other WM | 05:00 |
| randabis | synd: no, just because I'm using kde at the moment doesn't mean I don't use gnome too...besides, kubuntu and ubuntu are not separate distros | 05:00 |

| mathmatt | sal002: just use sudo | 05:24 |

| jamminpotato | how safe is editing the partitions i the ubuntu installer?, i ahve winXP installeed on a drive formatted in teh NTFS format and owuld like to dual boot without messing up my current swin install | 05:25 |
| mathmatt | your password for your account | 05:25 |
| Guilmon | JDahl: hes just a looser who is controlled by his testosterone | 05:25 |

| jamminpotato | waht if the drive is two NTFS partitions and i want to shrink one and make a FAT32 partition...is that possible? | 05:26 |
| Guilmon | lunitik: It might have a higher channel count, but it doesn't level out when it comes to support/and community. | 05:26 |
| randabis | that page tells you how to enable the root account, but I don't recommend you do that...sudo is more secure | 05:26 |

| Dreamer3 | cg0def: i'm downloading the 6.8.2-8 update now, see if it fixes it | 10:20 |

| Dreamer3 | synd: hmmm the upgrade was actually pretty smooth, except for this X issue, and it not installing a newer kernel | 10:26 |
| synd | bob2: no, i completely delete backports before the upgrade | 10:26 |
| Dreamer3 | bob2: i was using backports, but cleaned all all the system-related ones before my dist-upgrade | 10:26 |
| bob2 | synd: delete = uninstall? | 10:26 |

| bob2 | Dreamer3: they're just badly designed | 10:27 |

| bob2 | Dreamer3: reading the head of the file tells you how to get the default back | 10:29 |
| bob2 | aod: dude | 10:29 |
| synd | so i just downloaded the .iso on my Mac and burned the image of hoary and reformatted that drive with the messed up hoary | 10:29 |
| bob2 | aod: are you reading the URL I gave you or not? | 10:29 |
| Seveas | aod, ndiswrapper modules come standard with Ubuntu | 10:29 |
| crimsun | Dreamer3: need more diagnostic info, like /var/log/Xorg.0.log and /etc/X11/xorg.conf in addition to lspci -v, lsmod, and dmesg output | 10:29 |
| aod | yes, i downloaded the -utils | 10:29 |
| bob2 | aod: you read the howto I pointed you at? | 10:30 |

| aod | i downloaded the deb files and used synaptic | 10:31 |
| bob2 | aod: because I don't see anything in that page that mentions installing "ndiswrapper-modules" | 10:31 |
| Dreamer3 | crimsun: oh? | 10:31 |
| Dreamer3 | crimsun: so i should expect it to not fix it? | 10:31 |
| bob2 | aod: please just read the howto again (http://www.ubuntulinux.org/support/documentation/howto/ndiswrapper) | 10:31 |
| geneo93 | now if his network aint up how could he use apt | 10:31 |
| TwEeT | Does anyone have an Acer Travelmate notebook with the button to turn off WIFI | 10:31 |
| Seveas | aod, you should not manually download debfiles, just install them with spt-get or synaptic | 10:31 |
| crimsun | Dreamer3: no, unless it's dependent on migrating your earlier XF86Config-4/xorg.conf | 10:31 |
| geneo93 | Seveas: how if you have no connection | 10:31 |
| Seveas | ah, point taken | 10:32 |

| Dreamer3 | been customized | 10:32 |
| Seveas | well then, download the correct version of the utils | 10:32 |
| Dreamer3 | crimsun: if i remove it will reinstalling xserver-xorg give me a new file i wonder... | 10:32 |
| Seveas | or the matching kernel & restricted modules with it | 10:32 |
| geneo93 | he can use dpkg to install it though | 10:32 |
| aod | i did use dpkg | 10:32 |
| Seveas | aod, then you simply downloaded the wrong version | 10:32 |
| bob2 | aod: seriously, read that page, it explains it all | 10:32 |

| keffo | hehe | 12:25 |
| keffo | anyone been using cedega? and emulatating an .iso / .mds-file or so..? | 12:25 |
| mjr | actually, tetex-bin contains xdvi which depends on X, IIRC | 12:25 |
| bob2 | only on xlibs | 12:25 |
| mjr | well, the X libraries anyway | 12:26 |
| mjr | yeah | 12:26 |
| bob2 | yeah | 12:26 |
| erchache | bob2: when i do: apt-get install tetex-bin.....apt-get says install xfree like a additional package | 12:26 |
| mjr | erchache, just let it slide | 12:26 |
| bob2 | erchache: yes, it needs to install xlibs and xfree86-common (iirc) | 12:26 |
| bob2 | it's not much compared with how freaking huge tetex is by itself | 12:26 |
| erchache | yes | 12:26 |
| rtud2 | so is this the only web site I can go to www.transgaming.com | 12:26 |
| bob2 | ie, there's no way to get around it | 12:26 |
| erchache | but i want | 12:26 |

| bob2 | psth: look in the bts | 12:27 |
| rtud2 | okay thanks bob2 | 12:27 |
| erchache | how i can solve it....adding xfree to apt-get non install pack | 12:27 |
| bob2 | rtud2: or you could try to build it from their CVS | 12:27 |
| bob2 | erchache: you can't | 12:27 |
| bob2 | erchache: it's possible, but a lot of pointless work | 12:27 |

| Seveas | DigiKill, the US is not the entire world... | 12:45 |
| waxhead | what other repositories are there apart from universe? | 12:45 |
| DigiKill | but the US has most of the IP addys | 12:45 |
| Seveas | multiverse, main, restricted | 12:45 |
| DigiKill | :P | 12:45 |
| Seveas | DigiKill, so? | 12:45 |
| waxhead | Seveas, yes it is, if you're american | 12:45 |
| Seveas | waxhead, :) | 12:45 |
| waxhead | what's in multiverse? | 12:46 |
| Seveas | non-free stuff | 12:46 |
| DigiKill | well......once those IP's are freed up.......since the main servers would be outta commision....dont you think it'd be logica.l that those IP addys' got addressed to say : Canada? | 12:46 |
| maswan | For ubuntu, killing of the UK would probably be wrose, since there is where the central servers are. :) | 12:46 |
| DigiKill | or even Mexico | 12:46 |
| Seveas | check archive.ubuntu.com/pool/multiverse :) | 12:46 |
| waxhead | I thought that's what was in universe | 12:46 |
| Seveas | universe is all-stuff-available | 12:47 |
| Seveas | but too much to support | 12:47 |
| waxhead | DigiKill, never heard of CIDR? | 12:47 |
| DigiKill | C I D R? | 12:47 |
| Seveas | waxhead, probably not :) | 12:47 |
| DigiKill | not off hand | 12:47 |
| waxhead | DigiKill, and NAT, which is how the "rest of us" cope with the meagre IP addresses left after the americans got them all | 12:48 |
| Seveas | taking out UK is not that bad either | 12:48 |
| Seveas | there are other routing paths | 12:48 |
| DigiKill | waxhead : im aware of that | 12:48 |
| Seveas | the internet is designed to survive such failures :) | 12:48 |
| maswan | Seveas: Sure, the internet would survive. But getting fresh ubuntu packages will suck. | 12:48 |
| waxhead | Seveas, in reality though, that level of reduncancy isn't there... costs too much.. but that's the point of routing though.. just need some admins to do some overtime... | 12:49 |
| Seveas | but yeah for ubuntu servers, taking out UK would be bad :) | 12:49 |

| waxhead | hahaha.,... | 12:54 |

| Blue_Tek | yes i have the windows drivers | 12:54 |
| BazziD | Blue_Tek argh :D | 12:54 |
| Blue_Tek | on the cd that came with the card | 12:55 |
| waxhead | bit hard to do it when dual booting I'm guessing | 12:55 |

| Seveas | Blue_Tek, i assume that that is an .exe? | 12:55 |

| Blue_Tek | nope | 12:56 |
| Blue_Tek | no idea how to set it up | 12:56 |
| Seveas | thought so :) | 12:57 |
| Blue_Tek | lol | 12:57 |
| BazziD | Blue_Tek well ubuntu should have those drivers | 12:57 |
| Seveas | the card probably has no native linux drivers | 12:57 |
| BazziD | its a prism2 card afaik | 12:57 |
| Blue_Tek | im trying some ndiswrapper thing but im 1000% stuck | 12:57 |

| crimsun | HiddenWolf: also, it does not affect _all_ audigy2 owners | 01:37 |
| HiddenWolf | crimsun: I just installed this pc warty > hoary, and I don't think i've got sound. | 01:37 |
| crimsun | black_Nightmare: if you only have the kernel, you have only the system layer that allows programs to talk to the hardware. You still need a C library and userspace utilities to make your system actually usable. | 01:37 |

| black_Nightmare | hmm I see ty | 01:38 |
| crimsun | HiddenWolf: you may be one of the lucky ones. Paste your amixer output onto pastebin | 01:38 |
| black_Nightmare | I guess the kernel downloads are more worthy for upgrading your present system with...or compiling your own kernel+pieces together? | 01:39 |
| black_Nightmare | correct me if I'm wrong | 01:39 |
| black_Nightmare | :) | 01:40 |
| HiddenWolf | crimsun: where? | 01:40 |
| crimsun | black_Nightmare: the kernel is an essential piece of software. Upgrading it constantly is not necessarily a "good" thing. | 01:40 |
| selinium | Hi all, a couple of questions. Firstly i mount my windows drive during setup, although I can navigate to it, the icon does not appear on my desktop. Any suggestions? | 01:40 |
| crimsun | HiddenWolf: pastebin.c{om,a} | 01:40 |
| black_Nightmare | ah ok...I'll note that | 01:40 |
| selinium | Also when i put my USBDISC in it creates the icon on top of an existing icon. Is it possible to put an icon on the desktop for the usbdisc so this does not happen? | 01:42 |
| HiddenWolf | crimsun, never heard of it, can you give me the exact command? | 01:42 |
| crimsun | HiddenWolf: ,,amixer'' | 01:42 |
| kzm | upgrade update: now unpacking and installing.... | 01:42 |

| lewwy | crimsun, ah ok | 02:15 |
| lewwy | crimsun, if you need any other output, just tell us | 02:15 |
| lewwy | does sound have anything to do with the x sever? | 02:16 |
| lewwy | or more importantly, xorg.conf? | 02:16 |
| lewwy | cause i think i accidently deleted some lines in there the other day | 02:16 |
| crimsun | lewwy: no | 02:16 |
| HiddenWolf | lewwy: sound is alsa/oss | 02:16 |
| lewwy | how is sound invoked tho? | 02:17 |
| crimsun | lewwy: which output jack are you using? | 02:17 |
| lewwy | surely it would have to be invoked by the X server | 02:17 |

| black_nightmare | *sigh* | 03:01 |
| black_nightmare | weird | 03:01 |
| kurpa | how can i add programs to the menu? | 03:01 |

| kurpa | *ty | 03:02 |
| mercurus | why couldn't I find any of that info ... | 03:02 |
| Seveas | black_nightmare, try dpkg -L package_name | 03:02 |
| Myrtti | I wonder whats the matter with this file | 03:02 |
| lewwy | Dreamer3, you trying that hddregen? | 03:02 |
| mercurus | heh, when I ran dbus-1 restart, my hotplug CD play re-loaded and started playing the CD | 03:02 |
| vixus | black_nightmare: Try typing the emulator name in bash? | 03:02 |
| mercurus | crimsun, thank you :) | 03:03 |
| crimsun | mercurus: np | 03:03 |
| thisfred | Myrtti, what was xmms' feedback? And did rhythmbox give any (if you started that from the console as well). I'm thinking that the mp3s may be subtly corrupt, or maybe the ID3 tags. | 03:03 |
| Dreamer3 | lewwy: no, worrying about copying my data off | 03:03 |
| vixus | black_nightmare: OR rather, the command that would run the emulator | 03:03 |
| vixus | black_nightmare: Then get the <google>Gnome 2.10 Menu Editor</google> and add it yourself. | 03:03 |
| black_nightmare | hmm....one second ..... | 03:03 |
| Myrtti | thisfred: no feedback, it didn't even start the GUI | 03:03 |
| Myrtti | thisfred: rhytmbox started playing it nicely, no output | 03:04 |

| prego | dockane, the "new printer" took does detect the printer?? | 05:27 |
| djp | ok all, here's the rub... what is the latest realease of hoary like? I am ever so happy with warty. Stable, does what I want, makes me totally forget that I ever used MS Windows. Is it easy to upgrade? Is it worth it? Above all else is the current release stable? Or should I wait a little while into a final release? Questions, questions, questions... | 05:28 |
| Seveas | djp, if you lie warty, you'll like hoary better | 05:29 |
| Seveas | and it's really stable already | 05:29 |
| Seveas | upgrading is done in one line: | 05:29 |
| Seveas | djp: One-line upgrade: sudo sed -e 's/warty/hoary/' -i /etc/apt/sources.list && apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade | 05:29 |

| icarus | Hansiman: did you disable search for other boot devices as well? just use the cd as the first boot device? | 06:46 |
| thoreauputic | Myrtti: try looking for files with %20 and such in them ( that was what stuffed mine up) | 06:46 |
| icarus | or perhaps a different bootable cd... | 06:47 |

| kent | should the casefan blow air in to the case or out of the case? (Ive had problems with heat so I bought a new cpufan and a casefan). | 06:48 |
| tritium | Jamminpotato, deb-src is for source packages | 06:48 |
| Hansiman | icarus: doesn't seem to be anything like that here :/ | 06:49 |
| Jamminpotato | tritium: il paste it but its working now =/ | 06:49 |
| [nrx] | kent, there will be an air direction and mounting instructions with the fan | 06:49 |
| tritium | Jamminpotato, you need to install the binary package, not the source package | 06:49 |

| julius_ | Hansiman: cool. I ask because I have 256mb ram here and it seems to use most of the memory .. is there any minimal install option in hoary? | 06:49 |

| EvilIdler | Make sure you have support for all CD-ROM formats loaded, then. Joliet and UDF are the likely formats | 09:39 |

| lunitik | holycow: I just told you... with gnome-menu , it is useless... they just kinda... forgot to implement something in its place :/ | 09:41 |
| andreiz | holycow: i guess you can setup thing using the menu | 09:41 |
| EvilIdler | black_nightmare: Mind you, last time I had a problem ejecting a CD, the drive had broken firmware. I had to replace it, as an upgrade had gone bad. | 09:41 |
| TwEeT | Does anyone use Skype with Hoary? | 09:41 |
| lunitik | holycow: nope... it wants you to depend on the application putting a .desktop file in the right place now... | 09:41 |

| Bob__ | I run into a problem booting the live cd (5.04): vmlinuz loads, initrd.gz loads, I get a prompt after those two lines that says "Ready." and nothing after that (keyboard leds do not respond to numlock etc., only thing that helps out is the reset button...) anyone got a clue how to see what's messing up ? | 10:16 |
| Nakah | I didn't found anything | 10:16 |
| Arnia | I've gone off it... from an API point of view I prefer toolkits that allow more idiomatic libraries | 10:16 |
| lunitik | Arnia: I have sat people down and asked them to do things on KDE and on GNOME... most got into KDE far easier... | 10:16 |
| Arnia | I believe that is vital to encourage the use of the right language for the job without risking bugs due to expectation mismatch | 10:17 |
| ulisse | I have a little question... | 10:17 |
| holycow | lunitik, thats mostly because you prefer kde and your teaching steered them in that way | 10:17 |
| Arnia | lunitik: Funny... I've done the same and Gnome has come out on top. I suspect its to do with demonstrator guidance. We like one, so we demonstrate the one we like better | 10:17 |
| holycow | i run people gnome exclusively, they get a 5minute tutorial | 10:17 |
| holycow | we get 0 phone calls | 10:17 |
| dirKai | Bob__: Might be a lot of things. Any chance you've got a buggy USB controller? I remember back a few kernel versions ago my thinkpad would hardlock if I ran a kernel with UHCI support compiled in. | 10:18 |
| dirKai | Bob__: ...for instance. | 10:18 |
| ulisse | if I an application hangs keeping the control of keyboard, what could I do before hitting reset? | 10:18 |
| holycow | your comparison is invalid because for several reasons: you don't really have a goal to test for and its not a controlled situation. | 10:18 |
| lunitik | holycow: no... I sat them down and said "Change the desktop"... "Start the Web Browser"... things like this... and watched to see how long it took... | 10:18 |

| EvilIdler | dayson: Is it mounted? | 10:20 |
| ulisse | I.E.: If I run Blender with my poor graphicard, it often freezes, so I ctrl-alt-F2 and kill it from the terminal... | 10:20 |
| holycow | lunitik, our pilot projects here are deliberately skewed to favour gnome | 10:20 |
| fraggsta | neighborlee, works fine here | 10:20 |
| dayson | EvilIdler, I dont think so cause its not on my desktop | 10:21 |
| apokryphos | Arnia: You'd probably have to do that testing on a pretty large scale for it to have any real significance | 10:21 |
| kbrede | dayson, cd /media/cdrom0 or cd /cdrom | 10:21 |
| ulisse | but if Blender freezes the keyboard too? | 10:21 |
| Bob__ | dirKai: hmm, will try the usb thing first, although my normal debian install did have probs with acpi too, on my way to try now ;) | 10:21 |
| apokryphos | Arnia: Well, reasonably large at least. Would be interesting, I'm sure. | 10:21 |

| EvilIdler | demha: I've tried the original source and my local mirror with similar problems | 10:27 |
| DocUb | apt is Synpatic | 10:27 |
| lunitik | Arnia: KDE is written for devels by devels... and is far more fashioned towards usage due to this... GNOME tries to target people it simply cannot understand, and ignores features users want because it doesn't fit that paradigm... | 10:27 |
| DocUb | use this to check on updates | 10:27 |
| demha | EvilIdler, how did you fix ? | 10:27 |
| EvilIdler | demha: Seems like a few packages are broken :/ | 10:27 |
| demha | EvilIdler, i see | 10:27 |
| Dalkus | Yeah I know, but I don't like to use synpatic when I don't have to DocUb :) Besides, it's the same as using apt | 10:27 |
| jnoreiko | I just found mail from root on my system, something about Debconf: Configuring x-ttcidfont-conf | 10:27 |
| DocUb | also, if you want to be specific on your finding, use the Find tool | 10:27 |
| Dalkus | it'll give the same error | 10:27 |

| demha | EvilIdler, heh fair enough | 10:28 |
| Dalkus | randabis, Pasted in #flood | 10:28 |
| lunitik | Arnia: granted that usage is very much targetted... but features people want get in a lot faster because the people that want them are able to submit it to the project... GNOME rejects things I can't live without based on usability... | 10:28 |
| demha | EvilIdler, guess what ?! | 10:29 |
| Arnia | lunitik: Why can it not understand these users which aren't developers? | 10:29 |

| holycow | whatever, he's being a prick deliberately | 10:32 |
| EvilIdler | It's xfce being held back here. You can usually apt-get install the packages, though | 10:32 |

| holycow | the right answer is putting you on the ignore list | 10:33 |
| Arnia | lunitik: You called me a moron earlier | 10:33 |

| randabis | Dalkus: there's a way to fix it, but it's drawn out. The GPG error is not a big deal | 10:33 |
| apokryphos | Arnia: more KDE debates? ;-) | 10:33 |
| EvilIdler | dayson: Teamspeak updates slowly, so I bet they are using some old system for adding menus that Ubuntu doesn't use anymore | 10:33 |
| Dalkus | Okay, thanks randabis | 10:33 |
| Dalkus | :) | 10:33 |

| holycow | nice try frat boy :) | 10:33 |
| EvilIdler | dayson: I can't run Teamspeak, so I have no idea why it doesn't do it right :/ | 10:34 |
| apokryphos | lunitik: technically if he did believe that you would be calling him a moron. :P | 10:34 |
| dayson | EvilIdler, okay then where do I go to add it myself or at least start the program | 10:34 |

| fraggsta | it depends what kind of users they are really..many people will NEVER change their desktop from the default configuration and will freak out if you ever do so much as move an icon on the desktop | 10:34 |
| EvilIdler | dayson: Use whatever menu updating method your desktop system requires. Settings->Menu editor for KDE, some other thing for Gnome, right-click an available spot on XFCE.. | 10:35 |
| randabis | or me, who will freak if you put an icon on my desktop | 10:35 |
