[03:34] and what you want? [03:35] abiertos: You have to reboot, then press the appropriate key to edit the boot commands (it says at the bottom of the screen). Then add init=/bin/sh to the kernel line, then press b to boot. You can then mount your root fs read-write, and use passwd to change your password. [03:35] my email?

You press the appropriate key to edit the boot commands. You then use the up-down arrows to move to the line starting with the word "kernel", and press e. Then add a space and "init=/bin/sh" (without quotes) to that line, and press esc. Then press b to boot the system. Now you get a root shell. Remount your / partition read-write (mount -o remount,rw /) and [03:38] luck abiertos [03:38] ok [03:38] thanks [03:39] wjesusaxl: did you install portmap? search the ubuntu website? etc. [03:39] *sigh* I hope he gets that. [03:39] good instructions, I'll remembe them :) [03:40] nickrud: *shrug* It's not that hard. The critical thing is remembering that you can use /bin/sh as init :) [03:40] yeah, I actually knew that once, but damned if I'd remember when it counts. [03:40] nickrud: And _this_ is why you should set a grub password. Of course, you can just boot a livecd to evade grub, so you need a bios password too. But then you can just open the case and reset the bios password, so you need to weld your case shut :) [03:40] lnx-bbc, my savior :) [03:41] I did it already [03:41] bob2: I did it already [03:41] What's the deal with people here not doing the whole nick: prefix thing?

I just want to remember why the hell I made a change, and which change I made to which file. I'm thinking I might use svn or cvs, and just never do a "check out", just "check ins". That way, cvs would never mess up my permissions, and I have a log (the versioning repository) of the changes I had made. === dazed [~dazed@host-208-60-229-180.bhm.bellsouth.net] has joined #ubuntu [07:05] i'm looking at rhythmbox, but it doesn't seem to have the capability to actually *move* mp3's [07:06] Levander: RCS is good for simple tracking of config files (for example) [07:06] perhaps i'm wrong, in which case, somebody please correct me. [07:06] pestilence, rhythmbox is a *player*, nt a mangar [07:06] *manager [07:06] are there any site about linux for newbie ? [07:06] nickrud: you should tell that to whoever put "management" in the about screen ;) [07:06] linuxquestions.org - ? [07:07] tons of them, ubuntuforums.org is a great one for ubuntu. [07:07] Xenguy: that's why I was wondering if I should use svn or cvs (hadn't thought of rcs). I know svn is the latest and greatest, but not sure why I would need all those features. Or, really if the features would do any harm. [07:07] pestilence, the about box was written by "management" [07:07] Xenguy: why is rcs better for simple repositories like what I'm thinking of? === nickrud hides from cw [07:07] nickrud: nice. [07:07] any suggestions on music *management* software, then [07:08] easytag does a lot of nice things with music files === dazed [~dazzed@host-208-60-229-180.bhm.bellsouth.net] has joined #ubuntu === janga [~janga@dsl-084-056-104-042.arcor-ip.net] has joined #ubuntu [07:09] any good programs for synthesizing computer sounds and converting them to *.wav files? [07:09] what sounds [07:09] i'm looking for something that will help me rotate the songs on my mp3 player, as it only holds 512 megs, but my mp3 collection is larger than that. it doesn't look like easytag is quite the thing === dazzed [~dazzed@host-208-60-229-180.bhm.bellsouth.net] has joined #ubuntu [07:09] Levander: sure [07:09] Levander: rcs is good for that, too, since it's easier to add files [07:09] bob2: sure what? [07:09] i would love to add some computer tones to buttons on a webpage [07:10] bob2: okay, i'll look into that, *easier to add files* thanks === adoyretsamon [~tux@ip24-252-193-86.mc.at.cox.net] has joined #ubuntu [07:10] pestilence, no, that's not what you mean :) [07:10] i really need to find an article on the web comparing them [07:10] ~/.gnome [07:10] bob2: but I'm still going to have the issue where the repository doesn't preserve file permissions? [07:10] where do I go to get to there ~/.gnome ? [07:10] my computer ? [07:10] Levander: yes [07:11] been playing with NVU for page design - very nive program. [07:11] ryman, your home folder [07:11] okay, at least I know what to search on now. [07:11] Levander: but /etc is small enough that I bet just tar'ing the whole thing every day or week or whatever won't be an issue [07:11] Thanks bob2, and Xenguy too [07:11] nickrud| then I make gnome folder ? [07:11] and it has spell check - grin === dazzed [~dazzed@host-208-60-229-180.bhm.bellsouth.net] has joined #ubuntu [07:11] my /etc is like 13MB [07:11] bob2: why do that? to preserve the permissions? [07:11] Levander: yeah [07:11] hm, mine's 51MB now [07:12] I bet it's gconf damage === JzE| [JzE@a84-231-56-201.elisa-laajakaista.fi] has joined #Ubuntu [07:12] ryman, no, menu bar at top, Places->Home Folder [07:12] nickrud| yeah I'm there but there is no Gnome folder [07:12] to see the hiddent files (the ones that start with a dot) right click, show hidden files [07:12] nickrud| thanks [07:12] okay, am kinda new to backup strategies, would you just have one tarball backup of /etc, or would you have rotating backups - like a set of five where each gets overwritten once a week? or, is that to obsessive? [07:13] well, i feel like a dope [07:13] Levander if you have the space you can never be too "obsessive" (imo) [07:13] then again, I don't do any backups yet - still getting my system fully working. heh. [07:13] Levander: there's a lot of backup strategies; some are simple, and some are more complex [07:13] yeah, guess just worried about creating work for myself [07:13] Q_Continuum, :) [07:13] after staring at my error messages for like 10 minutes, i noticed a little "permission denied" comment [07:13] does openoffice come with an html editor...or are there other good oens to use? [07:14] Xenguy: so in the scenario bob2 recommends, tarring /etc ever so often, which would you recommend? [07:14] dazzed, bluefish [07:14] dazzed, bluefish [07:14] i tried sudo make and poof [07:14] thanks [07:14] it worked [07:14] no, wait, it didnt [07:14] crap [07:14] dazzed I'd check out NVU. ww.nvu.com (based on the Mozilla Composer) [07:14] Levander: well I do a complete backup every night === rover_dan [~daniel@222.212.32.248] has joined #ubuntu [07:14] wbeck85: please try the audacity package from universe after killing esd/artsd [07:14] Xenguy: and for how long do you save a backup? or do you overwrite the backup every night? [07:15] Q_Continuum: sounds good i will...even on windows i had abou 3 html editors id use in conjuction cuz they each offered their own strong points === karsten [~karsten@host-66-81-221-137.rev.o1.com] has joined #ubuntu [07:15] dazzed - "NVU" is good [07:15] Levander: but a 'real' backup system would do something like a weekly complete backup, with daily 'incremental' backups, for example [07:15] Xenguy: you know, to do bobs idea, I'm kind of thinking I would only need to do a backup every time I install a new package. [07:15] Levander: I basically have 2 nights worth - not the best strategy, but I have something :-) [07:16] Xenguy: yeah, I see what you're saying [07:16] good good [07:16] Xenguy: I'm about to start doing back-ups myself and am trying to get a "feel" [07:16] thanks Xenguy [07:16] Levander: your data is likely to change all the time (email, bookmarks, etc.) [07:16] Levander: yw [07:16] Xenguy: yeah, but for now, I'm just backing up my system configuration files [07:17] Xenguy: later I'll start backing everything up. === Sphearion [~noodle@sc1-24.217.169.22.charter-stl.com] has joined #ubuntu [07:17] ohmy [07:17] oh my oh my [07:17] Levander: I'm trying to remember the backup utility one guy in our LUG was recommending [07:17] well I have done it and Im likeing it, I have switched from fedora to ubuntu..... and needless to say, its nice [07:17] crimsun: thank you. I just wasted over an hr of my life [07:17] killall esd worked like a charm [07:17] thankyou [07:18] esd [07:18] Xenguy: was it backuppc?

[07:19] nickrud: I'm just worried about getting a "log" of the changes I've made to configuration files. bob2 pointed out that versioning control system don't preserve file permisssions. So I'm only talking about backing up files that I would modify [07:19] so that I would know what their permissions were [07:19] sgoodwin: lappy [07:19] Levander: found it - rsnapshot [07:19] YES! i got my server back!!! [07:19] transgress, which chipset? [07:19] sgoodwin: i was popping in and out of here all night..

[07:21] I have 2 sata harddrives in my computer 1x 250gig (the main that ubuntu is installed on) and a 2nd 160gig that nothing is on, how would I go about formatting the second drive and using it as "a place to store stuff for ALL users" [07:22] nickrud: you're not using rcs to track sysadmin changes are you?? that's what I'm thinking about doing [07:22] xMaximex: look under "system" "preferences" "sound" [07:22] Xenguy: np, it works pretty well for me and was suggested by some guys at my LUG [07:22] rdiff (drools) looks good === johnnybe1ak [~johnnybez@203-206-80-42.dyn.iinet.net.au] has joined #ubuntu [07:22] Levander, been doing it for a while, but since I've never had to restore a system ..... [07:22] xMaximex: and "system" "preferences" "Multimedia systems selector" [07:22] lol - "i need more power!" [07:22] xMaximex: turn off "start server automaticall" [07:22] nickrud: you got an article or link or something that talks about that? [07:22] xMaximex: and change default system to alsa [07:23] that's what I'm trying to figure out [07:23] just out of curiosity, have any of you had problems installing ubuntu on a system with one or more other installations of linux? [07:23] jubei: could you post the content of lsmod and also what happens in syslog when you plug the mouse in on that post? It might make it easier to see what's happened [07:23] nickrud: why use rcs instead of cvs? [07:23] and instead of svn? [07:23] Levander, all I ever needed was ci -i and co -o, since I don't code and don't share === flex_ [~flex@205.206.70.82] has joined #ubuntu [07:23] *co -i [07:23] and how big a deal is it for you that rcs doesn't preserve file permissions?

Is there any way I could config my Linux to look on another computers file system for it's files, and what type of slowdown would be expected. [07:24] im having problems doing this xorg.conf myself, is there anything that will autodetect my monitor and set it up? [07:24] never caught that part, that's why I'm reevalutating :) [07:24] nickrud: that was bob2's issue with the system, file permissions [07:24] geneo: do all of them still boot after you've installed ubuntu? [07:24] lol! [07:24] that's funny! [07:24] yes === Tuxicity [~Tuxicity@modemcable170.139-37-24.mc.videotron.ca] has joined #ubuntu [07:24] nate i used lilo [07:24] ah [07:25] nickrud: bob2's recommendation was cfengine2, but one blurb I read about it was "yeah, it takes a while to set up and is difficult, but once you get it setup, you'll wonder how you ever lived without it" [07:25] for some reason, I can use ubuntu, but RH9 and FC3 give me read-only error messages [07:25] nickrud: it's really for when you have a network of machines you want to configure the same way [07:25] flex_ - yep i had the same trouble - had to use a pencil to copy the settings from windows - ugh, there must be a better way... [07:25] nickrud: don't think I need to do all that work === mcrawfor_ [~mcrawfor@nannou.eplt.washington.edu] has joined #ubuntu [07:25] how can i upgrade from firefox 1.0.2 to firefox 1.0.3__ [07:25] ?? [07:25] Nate: i also have 2 versions of beos [07:25] fejaor: just wait [07:26] Levander, I used rcs so I could roll back changes that didn't work [07:26] hm. [07:26] backup is differnet [07:26] nickrud: cvs and svn can't do the same thing? [07:26] jajaja [07:26] aight, thanks [07:26] the new version is already on === Nate [user@1Cust6482.an3.chi30.da.uu.net] has left #ubuntu [] [07:26] fejaor: no easy way yet, unless you want to download directly from mozilla.org [07:26] hi. Does anyone else get "internal server error" when doing "apt-get update"? [07:26] backup is to alternate media, I backup all of /etc/ (including the rcs) so I don't think it's a problem in my case [07:26] Tuxicity: don't use backports [07:26] Tuxicity: not unless there system is broken [07:27] anyone? any ideas on how to format another harddrive and make it readwrite to ALL users? [07:27] that's what i wanna do but how?? [07:27] Sphearion: you need to be way more specific [07:27] bob I already was specific once and noone answered me [07:27] nickrud: so you're just saying that in your backup, you have all the file permissions? [07:27] whats the command to configure xorg.conf and autodetect monitor [07:27] nickrud: because you backed up all of /etc [07:27] yeah, because rcs is not my backup, just my version control [07:28] Sphearion: not really [07:28] bob2, I have 2 serial ata drives, I want one to be "storage" for ALL users, as well as shared on my lan, but I need to fdisk and format it probably im guessing cfdisk then mke2fs [07:28] Sphearion: do you care if windows can use it or not? [07:28] bob2, i don't have windows :) [07:28] bob2, hehe, how'd you know I use backports? ;) [07:28] Tuxicity: because in addition to the packages being broken, their webserver is too [07:28] windows is for sissies :) [07:28] nickrud: i see, how often do you backup? just after you install a new package? and how many backups do you keep? or, do you just overwrite it every night? [07:28] Sphearion: then just format it as whatever filesystem you like (I'd go with ext3), then mount it somewhere [07:29] bob2, so mke2fs -j [07:29] Levander, when I think of it, I have a script I run overnight to backup to CD [07:29] *when I think of it* [07:29] how do I find out what /dev/ entry it is [07:29] bob2: that jdong guy said something about ubuntu doing something like backports themselves. You hear anything like that? [07:29] Sphearion: or mkfs -t ext3 or whatever [07:29] Levander: no way [07:29] Sphearion: 'dmesg | grep ^sd' [07:29] nickrud: and every night the backup just overwrites itself? [07:30] Levander, for my purposes, it's sufficient [07:30] bob2, nothing returned [07:30] bob2: yeah, is to bad, would be really nice to have something like backports that kept us in the latest version of firefox and openoffice [07:30] found it sdb [07:30] Levander, I've always wanted to say, YMMV [07:30] Levander: dude, it's only six months [07:30] Levander: and for the last 3 months or so, it's usually fine to use the development version of ubuntu [07:31] it is possible to get more than one apps to use OSS sound ? [07:31] xMaximex: not easily [07:31] xMaximex: ie they have to all use esd [07:31] now i cant get into my server for some reason [07:31] NigelS: what is syslog? [07:31] nickrud: oh yeah, for home use, you probably don't even have to backup at all. I'm about to do same thing and just wanted to get "feel". [07:31] nickrud: thanks for letting me know what you're doing [07:31] bob2, the problem is that Teamspeak can't use esd :( [07:31] Levander: you know, if you have enough disk space, it is easy to simply copy previous backup files for as many days as you want (i.e. not efficient, but would work just fine is you are not short of disk space) [07:31] Levander, np, It was good to think about it again. [07:31] xMaximex: you'd need to talk to the teamspeak people about that [07:32] xMaximex: or use esdsp [07:32] meh I'd just download the latest firefox from mozilla.org anyway. The ubuntu debs absolutely blow [07:32] er, esddsp [07:32] ok bob2 to allow all users to read / write to that mount point what do I chown / chmod it? [07:32] randabis: in what way? [07:32] bob2: yeah, but like right now, openoffice has finally release version 2, with lots of improvements over version 1, and ubuntu's still on OOo 1.1. [07:32] And probably will be for another six months. [07:32] Sphearion: give it the same permissions as /tmp [07:32] Levander: dude, oo2 is in hoary [07:32] my god. i just realised i have had ubuntu installed for almost 3 months. i used to be reinstalling Windows ever month or so [07:32] bob2 lack of the real firefox icon, not as stable for me, and definitely slower than the mozilla.org one for me [07:32] bob2: what's package name? [07:32] randabis: dude, blame the firefox people for the icon thing [07:33] randabis: if less stable or slower, please file a bug so it can be fixed [07:33] Levander: openoffice.org2 [07:33] done :) thanks bob2 [07:33] chmod 1777 [07:33] bob2, ok then, backports sounded too much like backdoors anyways ;-) [07:33] Kamping - "" - "Windows" = Install, Connect, Reinstall. [07:33] bob2: that was just a sidenote. My main concern has been stability and speed. Ubuntu's firefox has always had those problems and I don't understand why [07:33] Sphearion: now anyone can create stuff there, but random other people can't delete it on them [07:34] randabis: have you filed a bug? [07:34] nice nice [07:34] bob2 yes, some time ago [07:34] dpkg -l openoffice.org-debian-files on my hoary system says version 1.1.3-3+1 [07:34] you guys type at *lightning* speed! [07:34] how would I make it so the users could create and delete what they made? or can they already make/delete what they made? [07:34] Levander: yes, that's not the package [07:34] Sphearion: users can do whatever they want to their own files [07:34] nice nice [07:34] thanks bob2 [07:34] you're welcome [07:35] randabis: which one, out of interest? === mjc [~mjc@ool-4572623b.dyn.optonline.net] has joined #ubuntu [07:35] bob2: okay, sorry, didn't see what you wrote after, checking openoffice2 out now, did find it in apt repositories [07:35] now time to share that drive on the network [07:35] hmm for some reason gnome is hanging on login after a fresh install === droctagon [~maccorin@nsc65.23.125-65.newsouth.net] has joined #ubuntu [07:35] bob2: as I said, it's been some time ago so I can't recall atm [07:35] mjc: for all users or just one?

[07:38] Levander, hoary is far behind, I use oo for production use, don't use oo2 [07:38] cyklus: emacs! [07:38] cyklus: bluefish is what lots like, i just use emacs [07:38] bluefish is easier to learn [07:38] cyklus: vim, bluefish, kdevelop [07:39] kdevelop looks good [07:39] nickrud: yeah, luckily I don't need OOo for much right now anyway [07:39] Levander, I use it a lot, daily, and oo2 is not ready for prime time :) [07:40] bob2: it appears to be a dbus, keyring, or session manager issue [07:40] nickrud: oh, okay, I didn't understand, I htough you just meant hoary's version, didn't know you meant just OOo2 in general [07:40] oo2 sue is looking damned fine tho you gotta admin [07:40] hmm I can't ping localhost [07:40] it already starts up damn fast, and opens up huge ms native docs without any problem [07:40] Levander, everything I say is in the context of debian/ubuntu, it's all I use [07:41] I depend on those 900+ good guys [07:41] bob2: found it, was because I didn't let it bring up lo [07:41] nickrud, we use oo for production too, we have two pilot projects [07:41] will be switching to oo2 when its released for sure [07:41] holycow, so how's the later versions of oo2? [07:41] it is a disadvantage for ubuntu though that you gotta wait six months for the new stuff. On Windows, any time anything new comes out, you just go to their web site and click "install".

Well, 1.999.whatever is not 2.0 :) [07:44] if you mean how is oo2 in terms of stability, well its beta, if you mean how it is feature wise, i think you and i agree :) [07:44] holycow: how much progress have they made on OOo Base? That app looked funny to me when I played with it a month or two ago. [07:44] holycow, concur :) [07:44] cyklus: matters on if you have money to spend or not. [07:44] will qtparted format a USB drive on Ubuntu? [07:44] Levander, not much change will happend with base from here on it, it is what it is [07:44] and its mostly a start, i personally find it easy to use [07:45] what is the default user/pass of a samba share. if I access it from windows xp it asks for a user/pass? === dr_willis [~willis@12-202-192-44.client.insightBB.com] has joined #ubuntu [07:45] nickrud: it depends on how many 9's there are.

[07:46] Levander, i haven't used it enough to have any real opinion on it tho [07:46] fejaor, read ubuntu website, info is on there [07:46] fejaor: www.ubuntuguide.org === Och [~octavio@200.77.113.52] has joined #ubuntu [07:46] pestilence, I wasn't being flippant, it's an old greek philosophy joke [07:46] holycow: it was like some of the UI controls in a window couldn't be resized, so the text in a list box would be cut off, so you couldn't read all the text because you couldn't make the list box bigger, stuff like that [07:46] hm - rdiff is nice! :) [07:47] that-s what I read but I ran the upgrade or tried to download something and marked me a lot of errors on the sites [07:47] nickrud: oh, i don't get it. in any case, i was being a math nerd for a second. [07:47] and Im trying to install the w32codecs exactly how www.ubuntuguide.org tells but is not working....errors [07:47] Levander, *hmmm* not sure if that has been fixed yet, anywhoo just wait, its not scheduled for release until late summer anyway :) [07:47] pestilence, then you know that you can always halve the distance, and never reach the destination :) [07:47] nickrud: sure === flex_ [~flex@205.206.70.82] has joined #ubuntu [07:48] same joke [07:48] nickrud: ok [07:48] :) [07:48] as well as error in the libdvdcss2 [07:48] hrm, i guess theres no flash player for amd64 [07:48] and I cant install cedega .deb file [07:48] anyone know how to get firefox to load a webpage in clipboard when you middle click on firefox, it used to to it when I used debian [07:48] flex_: yeah i can't get it either [07:48] yeah, well I'm looking forward to OOo2, lots of hopes for OOo Base. It will rock to have a cross platform cross database SQL client, that's free! [07:48] thank god for leibnitz === art [~art@12-205-143-213.client.mchsi.com] has joined #ubuntu [07:48] 32bit apps wont run with amd64? [07:48] no [07:49] i thought there were libraries [07:49] flex_, they should [07:49] Levander, absolutely [07:49] indeed. [07:49] i thought you cant mix 32 and 64, so if its a 64 system, you need 64 debs [07:49] dpkg: error processing cedega_4.3-1_i386.deb (--install): [07:49] package architecture (i386) does not match system (amd64) [07:49] grrr [07:49] i cant login to my server [07:50] stupid gftp [07:50] something still gets to me when I can use an app no matter what platform I'm on and have it act the same way. Don't have to re-orient myself or anything. [07:50] It's like Microsoft doesn't even matter! [07:50] flex_, you have to fiddle a bit more, I seem to remember seeing a guide on http://www.ubuntuforums.org/ [07:51] so I might be able to get my programs to work? [07:51] Levander, ahhh... so you have finally ascended to the next level [07:51] flex_, yes [07:51] welcome :) [07:51] how do I restart samba without restarting the computer? [07:51] flex_, i think it's something to do with chroot [07:51] yes, microsoft is irrelevant, they are already dead just don't know it yet [07:51] so it's probablt not pretty [07:51] Sphearion: sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart [07:51] thanks crimsun [07:51] np [07:52] crimsun, happen to know why I cannot login to my samba shares from an XP machine? [07:52] xp is a bitch [07:52] Levander, ms hasn't mattered to me for years, I still run win98 only for one app, since no one can tell me how to run the Thomas Guide under wind or qemu HInt, Hint [07:52] Sphearion: probably a username-permissions issue(s) [07:53] even if Im using my own username/pass [07:53] agh.. this is OT, but I have downloaded a couple of lost episodes from donkey and cant use them. they have "repack" in the filename. anyone knows what to do with the file? [07:53] MS broke the samba standard again with XP, so support is crap [07:53] xp decides to change the username (in the box anyway) computername/username [07:53] nickrud: what's so special about thomas guide that makes it difficult to use under qemu? [07:53] Sphearion: what do {auth,daemon}.log tell you? [07:53] as they did with 2K [07:53] flex_, this might be of use http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=24575 [07:53] what is samba? [07:53] It can't access the cd, either as a loopback or directly thu /dev/cdrom === xMaximex [~xmaximex@edgeforce.net] has joined #ubuntu [07:54] it would be better to make a Free NFS client for Windows [07:54] nickrud: huh? can't you set the command line paramter telling it to map /dev/cdrom to the d: drive? [07:54] thx [07:54] what would you want to set your 64 bit install to 32 bit programs for? [07:54] been there, done that, works for anything I install under qemu except thomas guide [07:54] nickrud: i don't have much experience with qemu, but i successfully installed windows 2k off a cd. [07:55] nothing, thats what those logs tell me [07:55] nickrud: strange. [07:55] transgress, in order to run packages not made for amd64 that are in i386 [07:55] capi smb is the file sharing system used by windows samba is the OSS implementation === da_bon_bon [~rohandhru@203.212.221.132] has joined #ubuntu [07:55] what's the "thomas guide"? I'm googling it now and am coming up with books. [07:55] nickrud: how about copying an installation over the network into qemu? [07:55] Its a guide to the TOm & Jerry cartoons! :P [07:55] I've installed win95, win98, win2k, all of them cannot access that cd. [07:56] even the /var/log/samba logs don't tell me anything [07:56] I'm not about to spend vmware money to run something I need maybe 3 times a year :) [07:57] Sphearion: not even samba starting up? [07:57] nickrud: I still do do multimedia under windows, that's mostly what I use it for, haven't bothered to figure out rythmbox and all that other stuff... === elcu [~justin@WNPP-p-203-54-24-31.prem.tmns.net.au] has joined #ubuntu [07:57] crimsun, yes it shows that, but nothing else, and its not erroring [07:57] Levander: that's interesting, because mplayer plays many more formats than windows media player ;) [07:57] Levander, just point rhythmbox at your root music directory, it'll do the rest. [07:58] Levander, i dont use rythmbox either. but XMMS doesnt need no learning:) [07:58] nickrud: yeah, maybe I should, just haven't even set up my sound card under ubuntu [07:58] Levander, Thomas Guide is a map program, covers all of california. === ryman [~ryman@adsl-68-126-149-97.dsl.pltn13.pacbell.net] has joined #ubuntu [07:59] nickrud, probably Google Maps is even better now! === da_bon_bon [~rohandhru@203.212.221.132] has joined #ubuntu [07:59] Tuxicity, not for a particular need I have, but I do use google maps a lot [08:00] hey, is there any good app that will let me hit apache to play music through the sound card on the machine apache is set up on? E.g., not streaming music the reverse. I've been thinking about doing something for my home entertainment setup.

[08:03] Levander: I haven't found any. I am happy with the default tho' [08:04] goldfish: it'd probably be a little faster, but not much [08:04] kk === cyphase [~cyphase@69.111.163.38] has joined #ubuntu [08:04] Does anyone have a Netgear WG511 network card? [08:04] Kamping_Kaiser, i think it means its Not set. [08:04] goldfish: what is your processor? [08:04] Raskall: I wonder if it's done with good XHTML and CSS, then I could make my own theme [08:04] i think going back to i386 is good for now, i need to play my games [08:04] hi all [08:04] elcu: Intel Pentium M 1.7Ghz. [08:04] Raskall: I've been teaching myself CSS and have gotten okay with it. [08:04] Hello World [08:04] goldfish: go for i686 [08:04] ;) [08:04] cool [08:04] Thanks. [08:05] goldfish, you know to install the kernel meta-package? Called linux-image-686 or something like that? [08:05] cyphase, hi :) [08:05] Levander: hang on. I'll check [08:05] how can you update the kernel?? [08:05] also, how much room you have left on your boot partition? [08:05] Levander: How do I check? :) [08:05] cyphase, return "hi"; [08:05] Levander: we have glirnath running all the time with mplayer as the player for all sound files. [08:06] fejaor: from the questions you've been asking, I wouldn't try it if I were you, but "sudo apt-get linux-image-686" - if that's the right package name [08:06] Levander, nickrud: i get an error when trying to go in through nautilus "cannot show folder contents" [08:06] i can login fine on my windows comp [08:06] through ie [08:06] but i want to do it on linux [08:06] goldfish: "df -h" will list free space on all partitions [08:06] Levander: yes. it's using css and php.. seems very simple and easy to mod. [08:07] Raskall: oh cool, so mplayer can be the front end? What protocol does glirnath use with mplayer? Do other clients talk that protocol? [08:07] Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on [08:07] /dev/hda2 19G 8.8G 9.1G 49% / [08:07] Levander: ^^ [08:07] that what u mean? [08:07] dazzed, do want to share your password :P [08:07] dazzed, can't help otherwise, so be wise [08:08] pm [08:08] goldfish: it doesn't look like you have a separate boot partition goldfish, it'll probably be fine to install it [08:08] nickrud pm me [08:08] Levander: Ah right, thanks. [08:08] goldfish: if you had other partitions, besides just '/', there would be other lines of output from that command for the other partitions. [08:08] how can I know what's my actual kernel and how can I know if it is worth to upgrade it?? [08:09] Levander: mplayer can be the backend, yes. :) glirnath simply calls mplayer from the shell with the filename from the web-ui as an argument. [08:09] well there are a few more lines of output from that command Levander [08:09] tmpfs 253M 0 253M 0% /dev/shm [08:09] /dev/hda1 37G 23G 14G 64% /media/windows [08:09] none 5.0M 2.8M 2.3M 56% /dev [08:09] fejaor: uname -a lists your kernel version, like goldfish showed us above [08:09] that's the remainder. [08:09] goldfish: yeah, you don't have a separate boot partition [08:09] righteo [08:09] sorry...i did't follow goldfish [08:10] Levander: So I shud be fine to apt-get the i686 ?

[08:19] i've found that the the most important thing for gnome to feel responsive is #1 have a video card with accelerated drivers .. that more than anything can make a machine scream, even a p200 [08:19] I tried to use apt-get but didn't work [08:19] fejaor: how so? [08:19] secondly, gobs of ram helps, but gnome is very miserly with ram, it can stuff it self in 48 megs i've found but you won't be opening many apps without swapping in that [08:19] sudo apt-get install adobe [08:20] there is no adobe you twit [08:20] :) [08:20] and synaptic doesn't have it [08:20] jesus :) [08:20] of course not, what kinda retard are yoU?

[08:41] dantheman, sudo apt-get install build-essential (no 's') [08:41] Jimmothy's linux quick tip: If you're going to be installing and/or breaking things, be prepared; be armed with a good album, a DVD maybe, or a good 'ol PS2 game. You may need to pass the time. :) [08:41] plexxus: find a good tutorial about the linux file structure -- it'll make using linux generally easier and help you understand things like file permissions and why things can be "quirky" to a windows convert [08:41] grub does not like my PC either. or rather it's the bios. some issue of bios not recognizing big harddisks. I have put grum on a floppy [08:42] IIIEars, cause grub doen's like my machine [08:42] i get mem errors with it [08:42] drspin, okay! :D [08:42] and kernel won't decompress right so no boot is done after all [08:42] any bobdy? there is nothing wrong with my sources.list file but I still get refused errors === the_creator [~dani@offset.atlantis.bg] has joined #ubuntu [08:42] XTCboarder: have you ran a memtest?

[08:42] it gives me 4 errors en 4 especific bytes [08:43] XTCboarder: does the ubuntu live CD boot? does the knoppix CD boot? [08:43] plexxus, don't give up... one of the side benefits of learnign linux is you actually learn what windows is doing behind the scenes [08:43] i don't know i have none of them [08:43] but slack and freebsd and all of them wins0x boot [08:43] XTC - if you get into trouble and need to erase the boot sector or the entire disk check out the "dd" command EXAMPLE - dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/yourdiskname bs=512 will erase the your disk [08:43] plexxus, believe it or not, windows does a lot of similar things in similar ways, tho a lot is just completely stupid [08:43] only ubuntu's don't [08:43] XTCboarder: If you have two DIMM sockets try swapping them -- if you only have one I'd suggest replacing it [08:43] XTCboarder: download one. always very useful. I recommend knoppix [08:43] holycow, yeah.. i read this sentece u wrote on a forum.. lol :D [08:43] xukun, maybe realted to gpg?

The OSS/Free stuff in the kernel is generally lacking features. The commerical OSS is the only good sound you get in linux really. ALSA is bloated, buggy, unstable, slow and bad sounding. Thus, its the new standard. [08:53] SalsaDoom, don't use it then :) [08:53] It's a LiveCD I'm using [08:53] salsadoom, and whats the best now? [08:54] SalsaDoom, or write a better implementation... [08:54] Well... it should be deleted from the kernel tree and never touched ever again for anyone. In My Humble Opinion. ;) [08:54] mindframe: I'll get right on that. [08:54] SalsaDoom, Alsa works fine for me :D [08:54] plexxus: ALSA is still best if you don't want to use commerical OSS [08:54] SalsaDoom: buggy and unstable are it being new and untested. Slow: it's built to be much lower latency than OSS. Bad sounding is just a bad driver on your end. === ky0nce [~agerber@myw-stp-196-34-112-144.sentechsa.net] has joined #ubuntu === AceMan [~me@81-178-230-136.dsl.pipex.com] has joined #ubuntu [08:55] SalsaDoom: Do you have some kind of script which expands "imho"? === doobs [~doobs@82.236.89.103] has joined #ubuntu [08:55] Delph: Buggy and unstable are acceptable, since its new. Latency is probably better, but test this: Load ALSA drivers, Play a game, watch your FPS. Load an OSS driver, you'll get better fps. [08:56] I tend not to use it to play games... If I want to play a game, then i'll use something designed to play games. [08:56] plexxus, the one that works for you, that's all ALSA or OSS or ESD... [08:56] foorandom linux install is currently not set up for using games, due to a total lack of support from hardware and software manufacturers. === doobs [~doobs@82.236.89.103] has left #ubuntu ["Leaving"] [08:57] Delph, theres a lot to play on linux [08:58] mindmedic: there's... tux racer... gnome stones... nethack =:) === SalsaDoom agrees with mindmedic, he has lots of games..

Am using Hoary64 and would like to solve this problem [08:58] xukun, I'm not familiar with gpg. you may ask a "gpg guru" [08:58] Delph: "total lack of support" isn't correct :) [08:58] UT2004, Darwinia, Doom3... etc [08:58] Freeciv! [08:58] quake series, doom3, enemy territory [08:58] Also, hmm, Frozen bubble. [08:58] I agree with mindmedic unreal series games run well and UT2K4 even includes a linux installer. [08:59] so... a few games have a linux installer. [08:59] apt-get hangs, how do i kill it? [08:59] How many hardware manufacturers have linux drivers that work nicely. === SalsaDoom doesn't need an installer. ;P [08:59] commercial stuff: http://www.holarse.de/?content=/spiele/kommerzielle/ [08:59] hey guys i got a friend on ubu....its recognizing his eth0 but he cant ping google..any suggestions!? [08:59] I play Half Life 2, Jedi Knight, Splinter Cell all with cedega. [08:59] dazzed, can he ping the ip? if so - then its a dns issue. [09:00] cedega doesn't count. [09:00] nope dr_willis [09:00] hes on a connection that works for windows [09:00] dazzed, sudo network-admin and select dhcp [09:00] dazzed, make sure he's got on it [09:00] LinuxJones: hes on dhcp [09:00] Delph: Of course it does. [09:00] j0 cedega isn't really linux gaming [09:00] it's to *work around* commerical vendors without support for linux. [09:00] an ip that is [09:00] ah [09:00] this is what I mean by 'total lack of support' [09:00] dazzed, that"s a network problem with the dns servers [09:00] Delph, whatever.

[09:01] I got your back man. [09:01] LinuxJones: yeah hes behind a firewall i think he forgot about that [09:02] Vendetta Online is a space MMORPG that has linux support.. its pretty fun [09:02] Decent direct rendering to the graphics card would be a good start. [09:02] dazzed, rofl :) [09:02] AlfaWolph, nice catch [09:02] dazzed, it's probably setup to drop icmp packets [09:02] You must have an ATI card.

[09:02] any gpg guru here? [09:02] It doesn't say anything about Linux support on the box. [09:03] how would i load gnome terminal and irssi in one command? [09:03] Linux is decidedly a *general purpose* operating system. The exact opposite to what you want. [09:03] Delph, i agree, gaming should be done on consoles [09:03] Most things well, but nothing brilliantly. [09:03] well, you guys can keep your consoles.

(wide grin) [09:03] chavo: yes. it will do what you want to do. It's just not going to be *efficient* at doing that. Because it's general purpose and customizable. [09:03] yeah hes working on it now well get some more info in a seconds [09:03] I don't own a TV, let alone a game console. [09:04] Jimmothy, gnome-terminal; irssi [09:04] <^vir^> linux would be be a better platform for gaming if linus included a proper HAL but he doesn't want hardware companies to make buggy code [09:04] thanks === calamari [~calamari@dialup-4.240.240.133.Dial1.Phoenix1.Level3.net] has joined #ubuntu [09:04] SalsaDoom, hehe, yeah well from an engineering perspective a game developer shouldn't haveto worry about 3 different sound servers, and god knows what kind of hardware support. one card, one api to the media subsystems, and go and create conent [09:04] hi [09:04] Well, I'm not exactly a "gamer".

Consider, the Xbox runs nothing but a stripped down version of Windows 2000. Why is it more powerful than a PS2? 'cuz MS threw a better processor and more ram into it! [09:09] what CPU does an xbox have? somewhere around a celery 700, yes? [09:10] holycow: hmm.. sounds like I need to write a wrapper program for cases like this, then :) [09:10] and incidentally, windows2000 is no better a model for a gaming OS than linux.

Sphearion === Vjaz [peksi@ranssi.paivola.net] has left #ubuntu [] [11:45] once you get the hang of the terminal, assuming you have a decent WPM, it's usually faster for doing things [11:46] let's not even bloody argue...if it works, use it, if it don't, change [11:46] ells: that maybe your problem [11:46] something was edited [11:46] Bazzi, but it is, you see in linux if there is a problem you can fix it, I like that in windows if there is a problem you wait for a patch, that patch will make more problems its an endless cycle === re|run [~re|run@68-186-83-163.wa.charter.com] has joined #ubuntu [11:46] hybrid8: what ya mean [11:46] if you really wanna still get your hands dirty on a daily basis, use something like BSD :p or hell, gentoo...it breaks itself afterall hehe [11:46] Sphearion: compile from source === Nalioth loves his command line [11:46] Sphearion I'd be lucky if I could actually fix everything I want to [11:46] yeah I love my cli too :) [11:47] Bazzi, stick around here. google everything, and spend time with it, in the end linux will return the favor :) [11:47] I'm happy to wait for patches, and gnome suits me fine...read the HIG, they're like a meta-manual [11:47] ells; there may have been say a bug that edited a file that messed up limewire [11:47] Sphearion I have to use debian stable on a server, thats no joy, really :p === usual [~colin@cpe-69-204-167-237.nycap.res.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu [11:47] I have setup ubuntu three times and all three times I have started out with my system running fine with wireles (centrino) --- and then after usiing it for about a day, I will boot up and all of a sudden, my system see acess points, but doesn't connect to them [11:47] compiling from source isn't much of a chore...it's more of a time waster [11:47] hybrid8, considering I used to run gentoo before it went crappy. I can say that I do compile alot from source [11:47] hybrid8: i thought so too,and reinstalled the updated limewire, same effect [11:47] Bazzi: learn to love the cli [11:47] hybrid8 I want to to work ;) [11:47] ells: hmm well idk [11:48] Bazzi, I use fedora core 1 (cli install, no X) on my servers thats just a headache [11:48] I remember when stable was released...2.2 kernel, kennedy for president, the three-day week [11:48] hybrid8: idk?

[11:48] GENTOO is NOT for servers...only masochists use gentoo on a server [11:48] is ubuntu able to read ntfs hard disks? [11:49] hans_: yes [11:49] hybrid8: it's too unstable for one thing [11:49] hans_: yes -- see the ubuntu guide [11:49] randabis: i thought gentoo was *flexable* [11:49] ubuntu is the easiest linux distro I have used to date. I like it, have had little to no problems with it, been less than 2 days now, and so far so good. all customized the way I like it, even samba was easy to setup, wait I did smb.conf by hand from memory :) [11:49] http://ubuntuguide.org [11:49] hybrid8: flexibility != stability [11:49] ubuntu should have HIG... [11:50] hybrid8, gentoo is NOT flexible, its compilable. you start today, and with a compile farm you will finish in about 12 hours :) === sbux [~beatrice@maisel-gw.enst-bretagne.fr] has left #ubuntu ["Bye] [11:50] im trying to use a canon powershot 300 with ubuntu, but i dont get any devices ... any hints?

[11:50] ubuntu is good for servers too :p [11:51] spo0nman, as much as I hate to say, some things can only be done with proprietary software, or lots of waiting. digital cameras (including alot of webcams) don't work real well with linux :( [11:51] I just installed as 'server' worked great [11:51] i have the amd64 ubuntu and I cant run anything and i cant get the i386 iso right now [11:51] does anyone know a good console player which can playback both cd and mp3s? im having performance issues [11:51] ;-) [11:51] hehe [11:51] spo0nman: this udev thing looks quite tricky. Might be your problem. [11:51] randabis: really? it seems to desktop ordinated [11:51] mcphail, spo0nman yes, udev is NOT the best....... [11:51] Sphearion: not always true....a lot /are/ supported (though not usually webcams) [11:52] hi i have a proble of delay for internet request, the browsing speed is un normaly slow, is ther a vay to chech the network card modules any idea ??? [11:52] djm62, I never said supported or not, I said they don't work so great with linux [11:52] mount -t usbdevfs none /proc/bus/usb [11:52] mount: unknown filesystem type 'usbdevfs' [11:52] whats going on there? [11:52] hybrid8: you can do custom installations. Ubuntu has all the same server tools that debian has throughout the repositories [11:52] 0_0 [11:52] spo0nman, exactly what it says, it does NOT know what usbdevfs is [11:52] either things work or not [11:52] try mounting as vfat [11:52] Sphearion, why does it not knoe? im using stock kernel. [11:53] chances are its going to try and read the memory card. that memory card is most likely formated fat16 or fat32, usbdevfs is NOT a valid filesystem descriptor [11:53] does anyone know what it would mean that I can see open WAPs but cannot connect to them? [11:53] so change that usbdevfs to either fat or vfat [11:54] re|run: could have MAC filtering on [11:54] and another thing why not just mount /proc/bus/usb /media/camera vfat (or fat) [11:54] why are you trying to mount it to nothing in /proc [11:54] Anyone here managed to install IE with wine ? [11:54] forgive me I hate devfs [11:55] mishof, why would you want to? [11:55] spo0nman: I have type 'usbfs' mounted at that location. might wanna try that [11:55] yeah devfs sucks === Thorrn4_away is now known as Thorrn4 [11:55] merc: I thought of that --- but it's my own APs that are doing it --- if I can connect to them in windows on the same system I should be able to get it in ubuntu -- besides, I had them in ubuntu yesterday [11:55] smo, hmm [11:55] lemme see what my usbpendrive mounts as [11:55] does the ubuntu site accept user screenshots? === Paradiossina is now known as Paradosso [11:55] Sphearion, some sites only work on ie ( like the israel army site which i need to enter :| ) [11:56] mishof, you might want to send them an email, and tell them to follow W3C standards :) [11:56] Sphearion, im afraid many people did that already =p [11:56] mishof your question baffles me [11:57] Sphearion: usbfs is another meta-fs, same idea as /proc & /sys. it's not the filsystem on a usb block device. I can't remember what it's useful for anymore tho [11:57] Nalioth, ? === Paradosso is now known as Paradosso_ === stazich_ [~stazich@adsl-69-208-129-253.dsl.ipltin.ameritech.net] has joined #ubuntu [11:57] mishof, user a linux browser, change the "user-agent" to SAY it's IE and go on your merry way [11:57] mishof, why not install konqueror and have it identify as IE?

[11:58] is gaim 1.1.4-1ubuntu1 the last release available on apt-get? [11:58] pablo928, Nalioth: I'll try that, although i believe the problem is with stuff that only IE can handle (stuff it invented) === Nalioth shudders at the thought of IE on a linux box [11:58] mishof: IE installs under Crossover Office if you really have to === tealq [~tealq@69.73.66.67] has joined #ubuntu [11:58] if so where I could find a iso [11:58] hey dont make the statistics look pro-IE :P [11:58] There is a firefox plugin for user-agent switcher [11:58] yes any browser can have its user-agent changed [11:58] pablo928, yes there is an extension to do that [11:59] thanks i'll look for it [11:59] http://chrispederick.com/work/firefox/useragentswitcher/ [11:59] pablo928, i got a link sec :) [11:59] there you go === Paradosso_ is now known as Paradosso [12:00] The 'Add A Printer' thing isn't seeing my USB printer and putting it into the detected printers list. It's a USB printer, it's plugged into a USB port that I had my thumb drive in about fifteen seconds ago, and it's turned on...Why can't it be detected?
