| holycow | St0n3-C0l, yeah its brand new, gnome 2.10 switche to the open desktop standard for menus, so they had to ditch the old stuff ... now kde and gnome will be able to have interchangeable menus, as soon as the standardization is completed (not sure what kde is doing on that end, i heard they also are doing same) | 12:25 |
| smouche | Edgan, God you're right, kde is going to get sued for that "breaking glass" error notification when somebody's granny has a heartattack! | 12:25 |

| Enkidu | Burgundavia: ok thanks, coming from windows if the memory is all in use theres something wrong ;) | 05:26 |
| bob2 | sig: so, there you go. pcihp was indeed completely unrelated. | 05:26 |
| bob2 | sig: now you can mount /dev/sda1 wherever you want. if that works, then the problem is narrowed down to gnome-volume-manager. | 05:26 |
| niran | hypno, it's not broken, it just needs more gstreamer plugins to read most files, i.e. gstreamer-ffmpeg | 05:26 |

| sig | bob2: look way up, I said I could mount it | 05:27 |

| bob2 | beh: sure | 05:49 |
| ShadowRage | MrNonchalant: basically they're bitching because they expect everything debian to stay under their guidelines | 05:49 |

| bob2 | ShadowRage: no one in Debian is saying that | 05:49 |

| ShadowRage | bob2: except the founder | 05:50 |
| bob2 | ShadowRage: that's a massive waste of time | 05:50 |

| === ShadowRage thinks autopackage.org is the future for linux desktop systems, personally | ||
| beh | MrNonchalant yes why | 05:53 |
| bob2 | beh: so, if you're building your own, configure your basic stuff IN the kernel, not as modules | 05:53 |
| bob2 | beh: then don't use initrd at all, and you'll be fine | 05:53 |
| ripgut | brb | 05:54 |
| beh | bob2: yeah i know now make sure the basic stuff isnt modularized | 05:54 |
| ShadowRage | more or less it's gonna get rid of the centralized software idea | 05:54 |

| eyequeue | MrKrrtft: someone else may know specifics. i do know that when compiling a kernel, i saw a lot of different joystick options, but not owning one, didn't pay attention. does ubuntu ship with modules for that device in their default kernel? that i don't know, but if you know the name, try modprobing it | 06:41 |
| JosephSpiros | OK, with the Hoary LiveCD... I looked up my machine on the Wiki, and it says I need to change a line in Xorg's conf file... | 06:41 |

| MrKrrtft | eyequeue, that's my problem. I can't seem to find what the modules needed for the gameport are. | 06:41 |

| jeezmos | hey, I seem to remember there being a wireless connection icon being at the top-right by the clock in 4.10, but I don't see it in 5.04. Can anyone tell me what the name of the program is that I'm looking for (and maybe how I can get that up in that panel again)? | 07:15 |
| K_Dallas | Chipzz, i am running hoary on a very similar system and it is darn fast :) | 07:15 |
| b2s | eyequeue: hum, well, worked for me. I installed practically every codec for ffmpeg, xine, gstreamer, etc, so it could have started working from something else too | 07:15 |
| epicenter_ | Why can't I seem to find a version of libgtk-dev newer than 2.0 when the 2.6 libraries is installed? | 07:16 |

| Chipzz | yes that's why I'm wondering - it should be able to run just fine but is *horribly* slow | 07:16 |

| bob2 | epicenter_: the package name contains the SONAME, which is indeed 2.0 | 07:18 |
| epicenter_ | not 2.6 .. | 07:18 |
| eyequeue | epicenter: 2.0-series, i'd guess | 07:18 |

| spo0nman | lo bob2 | 07:18 |
| bob2 | epicenter_: no, it's not | 07:18 |
| Chipzz | epicenter_: because 2.6 is backwards compatible with the gtk+ 2.0 series | 07:18 |

| keyvan__ | hey folks i was hoping someone could lend a hand with burning an ISO in linux, apparently cdrecord is the key, and that only works with scsi devices (mine is ide), now it seems i need to add a line in the grub config file, but i dnot know where that is, as it is not the default path here in ubuntu, any help? | 08:32 |

| eleusis | :) | 08:32 |
| crimsun | keyvan__: it works fine with ATAPI drives | 08:32 |

| === pvanhoof [~pvanhoof@dD576CB7F.access.telenet.be] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| keyvan__ | ah | 08:32 |
| crimsun | keyvan__: cdrecord dev=/dev/hdX (replace X) | 08:32 |
| keyvan__ | then perhaps i am using hte wrong command? i used this command and it yielded in a bad disk after 10 seconds of "Fixating" | 08:33 |
| Debian3x | hmm might try emulating your ide drive as a scsi by passing the command to the kernal | 08:33 |
| keyvan__ | ah okay, and it does track at once | 08:33 |
| keyvan__ | yeah debian3x, thats what i foudn while googling and thats why i asked about the grub config file path | 08:33 |
| Debian3x | but that is only if your cdrw is a adapti | 08:33 |
| crimsun | it should not be necessary to use ide-scsi | 08:33 |
| crimsun | cdrecord does support ATAPI natively | 08:33 |
| crimsun | you might want to ensure that your ATAPI drive has DMA enabled | 08:34 |
| b2s | oneovernone: aparently I must have broken the config somehow... deleting that section and using the default config works perfectly for me also | 08:34 |

| epicenter | Debian's a good idea and it works well, and apt like a ray of light from the heavens | 09:46 |

| kyle | crb: i'll check my fonts.conf ; let's see | 11:57 |
| SeamusLP | xukun: Open up your xorg.conf file and change all instances of nvidia to nv. This will switch it to the open source driver. then restart x and see if it fixes it | 11:57 |
| volcom | also, does anyone know why theres no ndiswrapper in amd64 repos? | 11:57 |
| Choubaka | maybe find out the horizontal and vertical refresh ranges for your monitor and use the "advanced" setting? | 11:57 |
| volcom | or do I need to add a special repo? | 11:57 |
| kyle | notos: are you running it as root? | 11:57 |

| Choubaka | SeamusLP: take this for example: with sudo, you can have your regular user be able to install software with apt or dpkg using his own password; then, you can require him to use another password for changing system setting or removing programs. | 12:37 |

| Xgates | so how can I add in my nick to sudo | 12:37 |
| Choubaka | read man sudoers | 12:37 |
| SeamusLP | Choubaka: That's the purpose of sudo. But by default in ubuntu you have access to every program. | 12:37 |
| plagerism | edit /etc/sudoers | 12:37 |
| Choubaka | SeamusLP: yes. | 12:37 |
| Choubaka | and that's not the most secure practise. | 12:38 |
| Choubaka | but I believe it's more secure than a root account. | 12:38 |
| Choubaka | or rather, more convenient. | 12:38 |
| SeamusLP | Yeah more convenient but I highly doubt it's more secure | 12:38 |
| kbrooks | kyle: Yes? | 12:38 |
| Choubaka | when a user has to login as root to do weird things, he'll opt to use the computer as root all the time. | 12:39 |
| Burgundavia | observe windows | 12:39 |
| SeamusLP | Well there is that aspect, but I'm thinking more along the lines of remote attacks. | 12:39 |
| Xgates | can someone msg me or join #flood and show me their /etc/sudoers file | 12:39 |
| Choubaka | and you'll still have to write "sudo rm -rf /" _AND_ your password. :D | 12:39 |

| Choubaka | mine looks like this: jarkko ALL=(ALL) ALL, NOPASSWD: APT | 12:41 |
| SeamusLP | Choubaka, for example wouldn't a user exploit turn into a root exploit if that user had sudo access on passwd? | 12:41 |
| kbrooks | root is effectively DISABLED | 12:41 |
| odyssey | LOL? | 12:41 |

| Ede_K | ubuntu says that the job is sent | 02:24 |
| Burgundavia | Enspyron, assuming you have already enabled the other repos | 02:24 |

| prahal | H0lyD4wg: because debian is the first to do it, if you want i have examples of the way aix, RH and a few others does ... i guess so few people understand X as a whole that the XSF was the first to think of Xsession | 04:30 |
| thoreauputic | not always totally though | 04:30 |
| kennix | why is modprobe ndiswrapper failing? 5.04 & all steps until now ok | 04:30 |
| Xebitx | so you just do xkill in a terminal and press the window to be killed | 04:31 |
| thoreauputic | sometimes leaves a few bits behind :) | 04:31 |

| b2s | when you run linux32 whatever, it runs "whatever" as 32bit. chroot starts up "bash" (or whatever), so when you are done, you exit bash and it exits chroot and it exits linux32 :) | 07:55 |

| njan | WiFi_Net_Guy, although ubuntu are good enough to bundle ipw2100/2200 drivers, which some distros don't :) | 11:29 |

| WiFi_Net_Guy | njan, great! Thanks for the information. Have you been happy with Ubuntu? It looks pretty good from the info I've read. Any comparison with SuSe? | 11:32 |
| zxc | when I'm doing stuff it keeps saying "W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems | 11:32 |
| zxc | " how do I do this please? | 11:32 |
| dockane | sudo apt-get update maybe ? | 11:33 |
| kent | zxc, what "stuff" are you doing? Do either as dockane says, or in synaptic, press the reload-button. | 11:33 |
| Koljonen | i just installed nullidentd, any ideas how to make it show my username instead of "foobar"? :o | 11:34 |
| zxc | I'm getting stuff listed of ubuntuguide | 11:34 |
| zxc | using terminal | 11:34 |
| LinuxJones | WiFi_Net_Guy, Ubuntu rocks you will notice a difference in speed and package managment is awesome | 11:34 |
| njan | WiFi_Net_Guy, SuSE is the only distribution I've never extensively used; I've only used it for servers, so I can't specifically comment re: desktop use | 11:35 |
| ailleantsian | if a chipset is made for redhat and suse is there any chance i can use it on dev? | 11:35 |
| WiFi_Net_Guy | LinuxJones, cool! Thanks. I'm using it in a dual-boot config with Winbloze but I never go there unless I HAVE TO! | 11:35 |
| kent | zxc, then you most likely forgot to run "sudo apt-get update" from the terminal AFTER you edited the sources.list file. You need to update the list of packages which you can install.. | 11:35 |
| ailleantsian | deb / ubuntu | 11:35 |
| njan | WiFi_Net_Guy, however, compared to every other desktop linux distribution I've used (most of them), it's spectacular. Quick, reliable, aesthetic. | 11:35 |

| camden | we alaskans are like cold texans. | 11:50 |
| Lefungus | by default, ubuntu seems to use -g in the cflags | 11:50 |
| Lefungus | so my autotools script put -g in the compilation process | 11:50 |
| dazed | elem3nt, i really wouldnt know what to tell you cuz that deals with your hotplugs as well and using them like a network controller ... i really dont know how to help with that | 11:50 |

| Lefungus | how ? my script either hardcode the cflags or use the default ones | 11:52 |
| Lefungus | and if I use the defaults, -g is here | 11:52 |
| crimsun | Lefungus: then update your script to accept $(CFLAGS) | 11:52 |
| femv | how can i install this : tcltls ?? can apt look it up for me ? | 11:52 |
| crimsun | femv: packages.ubuntu.com | 11:52 |
| Lefungus | is it different from $(CFLAGS) ? | 11:52 |
| Lefungus | I mean $CFLAGS | 11:52 |
| crimsun | Lefungus: $(CFLAGS) is picked up from env | 11:53 |
| dazed | femv: apt-cache search tcltls | 11:53 |
| kent | kdp, that is strange. But why do you want debugging enabled? I meen, it can be a feauture some times, but if its fixed, or you dont know of any more bugs.. then it couldn't be needed could it? | 11:53 |
| Lefungus | crimsun, then it'll pick '-g' too | 11:53 |
| dazed | femv: then use apt-get install <app> to install the app it returns | 11:53 |
| crimsun | Lefungus: the correct way is to strip the binary after it's compiled | 11:54 |
| elem3nt | dazed one more thing, do you know someone who could know something about usb-adsl modems? | 11:54 |
| Lefungus | crimsun, that's interesting, i wasn't aware you could strip debug info after compilation | 11:54 |
