| qtrr | Quick answer? Any real disavantage to doing a dist-upgrade on warty to horay insted of a clean install of horay? | 01:59 |
| crimsun | segphault: the x-window-manager and the gconf key both need to be set to $your_choice_of_wm | 01:59 |
| segphault | crimsun: already did that, it didn't work | 01:59 |
| sysrq | segphault: or you could just edit the gnome-session to start your WM instead of metacity | 02:00 |
| sysrq | which might be a bit easier | 02:00 |
| crimsun | qtrr: no real disadvantage, just make sure you read the update notes. | 02:00 |
| segphault | sysrq: where? The gnome-session-properties tool doesn't provide a mechanism for that, and metacity *isn't* in the session file | 02:00 |
| crimsun | segphault: look at WM= in /usr/share/gnome/default.wm | 02:01 |
| segphault | the session file was the first thing I tried | 02:01 |

| yoni1 | jordanau: well yeah i use xchat all time, just found out gaim has support and its kinda cool ;) | 02:06 |
| psychonate | segphault: I like using the mouse for switching workspaces, getting window lists, etc. | 02:07 |
| segphault | holycow: that's a good idea. I'm not sure if the methodology for changing the config is consistant across dists | 02:07 |
| psychonate | jordanau: no, the option is right in xchat's preferences | 02:07 |
| segphault | psychonate: that's a matter of preference. I greatly prefer using keyboard for *everything*. I have manually configured almost 300 independent sawfish shortcuts. =} | 02:07 |
| jordanau | psychonate, non compliant window manager, i guess i do have to enable it... | 02:08 |
| psychonate | heh | 02:08 |
| psychonate | jordanau: dunno anything about that | 02:08 |
| psychonate | I just use the transparency offered in xchat's preferences | 02:08 |
| jordanau | psychonate, yeah well i think it is your fault it doesnt work j/k | 02:08 |
| segphault | sawfish has some weird bugs. I'd like to be able to switch to something newer, but I can't find anything I like | 02:08 |
| jedipottsy | how do i delete a folder i made as a root? | 02:09 |
| segphault | I've been working on a window management library in ruby that may make it so that I can extend metacity to the point where it behaves like sawfish. =} | 02:09 |
| sysrq | segphault: looked at openbox? It has customizable keybindings | 02:09 |
| psychonate | segphault: only time I use keyboard shortcuts is for new tabs in xchat/firefox and switching between screens in screen | 02:09 |
| segphault | sysrq: I haven't looked at openbox. I looked at Flux (which I was told was similar but better) and it looked promising. | 02:09 |

| jedipottsy | how do i delete a folder i made as a root? | 02:10 |
| segphault | I'm really looking forward to the official release of WMII | 02:10 |
| sysrq | segphault: I much prefer open to flux, openbox 3 had a entire rewrite and is no longer based on the bb codebase | 02:10 |
| psychonate | segphault: dunno if I remember that | 02:10 |
| jordanau | jedipottsy, log in as root | 02:10 |
| jedipottsy | how do i login as root? | 02:10 |
| psychonate | so, this Ubuntu, is it good? | 02:10 |

| psychonate | I'm downloading it now, and I don't like to be disappointed heh | 02:10 |

| segphault | yeah, they just did the freeze | 02:12 |
| segphault | not that it means much | 02:12 |
| jordanau | jedipottsy, i think you have to delete recursively | 02:12 |
| segphault | this debian release is like a year overdue | 02:12 |
| jordanau | segphault, or more | 02:12 |
| psychonate | segphault: well, I like the amount of packages Gentoo has, and I like relatively regular updates I suppose | 02:12 |

| jedipottsy | theres 5311 files, i cant delete all those files | 02:15 |
| segphault | psychonate: right, mandrake is *much* worse than ubuntu | 02:15 |

| crimsun | segphault: sporadically. | 02:16 |
| segphault | crimsun: I'm not saying that ubuntu performs badly or doesn't give you a lot of control, but for someone who is used to stage one gentoo install... nothing can really compare | 02:16 |
| bigbill52a | i use ubuntu live to copy files from my customer's computers to an external hard drive...so that i can reinstall windows...and reinstall windows....etc, etc | 02:16 |
| psychonate | tbh, I didn't really care so much about the amount of control Gentoo offered as I did about the amount of packages Gentoo offered :) | 02:16 |

| segphault | crimsun: Is that pretty tough to do? | 02:17 |

| tritium | yes, they are | 03:21 |

| LinuxJones | thully, because they are not standard Ubuntu packages. The backport software might caue problems when you want to upgrade to a new version of Ubuntu. | 03:22 |
| thully | as I've seen some bug fixes only available as backports - Firefox, for instance, along with netapplet, have bugs that are only fixed through backports | 03:22 |

| JDahl | aardvark, I am not an expert... but then upgrading from warty to hoary doesnt take one: replace occurences with "warty" to "hoary" in /etc/sources.list, run "sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" | 03:57 |

| helio7 | yeah tritium says it nicer :-P | 03:59 |
| tritium | helio7: I would say your idea is a good one. Test the "nv" driver rather than the "nvidia" one, to see if that's causing you problems. | 04:00 |

| Razor-X | again, does anyone have any info on NTFSResize? | 04:02 |
| JDahl | arvan, the brutish approach is to run "fuser -k /dev/dsp", then run the other apps | 04:02 |
| tritium | Razor-X: other than that your mileage may vary, and that it's somewhat risky? | 04:02 |
| arvan | JDahl...is that a one time deal or every time? | 04:02 |
| helio7 | JDahl you could edit that line into the launcher tab though with a semi-colon correct? | 04:02 |
| Razor-X | tritium: well, the page says that the newer versions can resize fragmented partitions | 04:02 |
| helio7 | ie "fuser -k /dev/dsp; /usr/games/tuxracer" | 04:03 |
| Razor-X | I defragmented the partition, but not to the point where the disk-space was consolidated | 04:03 |
| Razor-X | *free disk-space | 04:03 |
| JDahl | arvan, that would kill the app that's locking /dev/dsp (likely gnome sound server), and you need to run it every time (or disable gnome sound server at startup) | 04:03 |

| helio7 | arvan listening to you with the sound problem inspired me to work on my same issue; I created a script that has 3 lines "1st: killall esd 2nd: tuxracer 3rd:esd" and pointed the tuxracer launcher to that shellscript; I verified that it re-launches esd when I close the game | 04:10 |
| helio7 | I realize it's not elegant, but it's enough for me that it works; | 04:11 |
| Razor-X | tritium: NTFSResize claims they can resize even fragmented partitions, I defragmented mine, but just because the free space wasn't consolidated, it would'nt find all the free-space on the drive | 04:12 |

| tritium | iluciv, why do you have both nvidia-glx and fglrx on the same system? | 04:27 |
| drcode | I think that if on;y there was gui that helped for east use , like nvidia setting , wine and so it can bet out ms | 04:28 |
| Razor-X | well, there's one thing about Windows that not many people in the Linux world admit | 04:28 |
| iluciv | thats what I thought! I had an ati card but I'm sure I've uninstalled the drivers | 04:28 |
| Razor-X | Windows OSs are small, for the amount of device support they offer | 04:28 |
| drcode | I think thats what missing in windows | 04:28 |
| JDahl | SQL_Sam, yes, if you setup samba and share your c:\windows folder | 04:28 |
| tritium | iluciv, no, your error indicates that you still have fglrx stuff | 04:28 |

| Razor-X | Linux is definitely getting better in that alley | 04:29 |
| tritium | iluciv, dpkg -l | grep fglrx | 04:29 |
| drcode | I had to ask here and other channel and forum to know things , it took time , but at the end all workd, if there where appliction in gui that can be multi platform and give easy help , then ms can get out of the market | 04:29 |
| digitalfox|slp | Razor-X, it doesn't come with half the stuff that Ubuntu does, and a Ubuntu install is tiny | 04:29 |

| Levande1 | bob__: as a user, I think gnome is more wide spread, even though KDE is widespread itself. Because GNOME is more widespread, i *believe* it has more functionality in applications available natively, etc available | 04:52 |
| flodine | why does ubuntu move so slow | 04:52 |
| jordanau | flodine, how fast is your comp? | 04:53 |

| fazer | tritium: I think my Thinkpad's internal clock is disfunctional? | 05:49 |
| nat_ | waseem, are you using an nvidia card? | 05:49 |
| sir-gold | then there isn't much to update | 05:49 |
| chombee | jordanau - I see what you mean, but i already have a perfect solution, just need to enter it into a config file | 05:49 |
| REdz | does hoary work with nvidia drivers out of the box | 05:50 |
| waseem | nat: yes | 05:50 |
| Fackamato | REds: yup | 05:50 |

| jordanau | chombee, i dont know why the link goes away, i thought they were permanent | 05:50 |
| nat_ | i dont actually know the solution to your problem, but I know the documentation with the nvidia driver goes into some depth about it | 05:50 |
| user1 | can I make copy of the linux to other drive? | 05:50 |
| JairunCaloth | ah, video drivers.. that might be a good idea.... lol | 05:50 |
| tritium | jordanau, I don't know | 05:50 |
| jordanau | tritium, actually you can disgreegard what i said | 05:50 |
| user1 | like mirror and boot it from there? | 05:50 |
| sir-gold | alainm in synapic click the button that says mark all upgrades | 05:50 |
| sir-gold | then click apply | 05:51 |
| JairunCaloth | doea nvidia have linux drivers for their stuff? | 05:51 |
| chombee | jordanau - well don't take my word that it's a 'sym-link', I don't really know what the command does (except that it links /cdrom0 to /dev/dvd) but it works | 05:51 |
| thechitowncubs | what command ends the current process? | 05:51 |

| Levande1 | chombee: a hard link is actually a "first class" file, you delete what it links to, the hard link is still there with all the contents | 05:53 |
| Levande1 | chombee: a soft link just points to what it links to. You remove the link target, and the soft link is more or less dangling | 05:54 |

| chombee | ln -s creates a 'symbolic link' according to man | 05:55 |
| chombee | yes i am root | 05:55 |

| chombee | jordanau - can I set command1 & command2 to run when a DVD is inserted, to run my link command then open xine? | 05:56 |
| tritium | /usr/share/doc/nvidia-glx/README.gz | 05:56 |
| Levande1 | jordanau: i would guess because the files in /dev aren't files that are permanent in the filesystem. They are dynamically created at boot time | 05:56 |
| jordanau | when the comp starts up it will mount all and that will include what you made | 05:57 |

| chombee | Levandel - do you know how I can create a sym link at the start of each gnome session? | 05:58 |
| Levande1 | chombee: at the start of each X session you can put command to be run in your .Xsession file | 05:58 |
| Levande1 | chombee: there's prolly some similar file for gnome, but I don't know what it is | 05:58 |
| jordanau | Levande1, Since Linux 2.4.0 it is possible to remount part of the file hierarchy | 05:58 |
| jordanau | somewhere else. | 05:58 |
| Levande1 | X session is pretty much the same thing though | 05:58 |
| Levande1 | jordanau: cool | 05:59 |
| jordanau | After this call the same contents is accessible in two places. | 05:59 |
| chombee | Levandel - d'you think that will enable me to sym link /dev/cdrom0 to /dev/dvd for every session? | 05:59 |
| jordanau | Levande1, thats straight out of man mount if you want to read about it | 05:59 |

| Levande1 | JairunCaloth: you sure that's a permission problem? | 06:00 |

| JairunCaloth | NTFS | 06:01 |
| Levande1 | JairunCaloth: accessing files shouldn't require different file permissions for different programs. Just when using different users to access. | 06:01 |
| jordanau | sorry chmod isnt right, i wasnt thinking | 06:01 |
| chombee | jordanau - how would I set a bash script to execute at startup? | 06:01 |
| JairunCaloth | well I had to set it up using the root terminal | 06:01 |
| jordanau | chombee, system > preferences > sessions > third tab | 06:02 |
| jordanau | chombee, startup programs | 06:02 |
| chombee | Levandel - you know what the problem with .XSession is - the command needs to be run as root | 06:02 |
| Levande1 | chombee: that is a problem | 06:02 |
| chombee | jordanau - and I just type in the name of the bash script file? what makes a bash script, and will it be able to run the command as root? | 06:03 |
| Levande1 | chombee: why do you need to make this link? | 06:03 |
| jordanau | chombee, now you need to know what number to give it for the boot order | 06:03 |
| jordanau | chombee, oooo didnt think about root, i dont know | 06:03 |
| chombee | Levandel - the link needs to be made in order for DVD videos to play in programs like Xine. Without it they don't find /dev/dvd | 06:04 |

| jordanau | haha | 06:11 |
| phxguy | do i need to specify the path? | 06:11 |
| tritium | chombee, it doesn't have to be /dev/dcd. You can specify /dev/hdb,or whatever it may be in xine configuration | 06:11 |

| regeya | brilliant move | 06:29 |
| Jimbob | regeya: Sure it does, you just add a bit to the config file. | 06:29 |
| jordanau | regeya, my idea was to use mount --bind, would that have worked? | 06:29 |
| regeya | now instead of a symlink you have to edit a config file. | 06:29 |
| knapjack | back in my day, we didn't have any of that fancy multi-media. We had to pause between shadow puppets so we could use our hands to make the sound effects. | 06:29 |

| Jimbob | devfs was a mess from day one. There's a reason it was deprecated | 06:34 |
| Jimbob | And, as noted in one of the threads you posted on, "udev was designed *NOT* to store local changes to /dev" | 06:35 |

| jbmigel | hey how does that little hoary update monitor application know there are updates without me giving it sudo password? who gave it root?? | 09:08 |
| ivoks | if u look better, this way is less secure than with normal root account | 09:08 |
| psychonate | gorilla_, What if you actually do know what you are doing lol | 09:08 |
| ivoks | if u have root account, attacker shhould know 2 passwords | 09:08 |
| dabaSlon | ok, then, sure, I do not wanna go into that... | 09:08 |
| rOss^FX | hello folks .. since my processor is AMD and supports SSE2 ? should i use the PiV kernel ? | 09:08 |
| jacquesmerde | jbmigel, why would it need to be root? | 09:08 |
| psychonate | I just wanted to change my xorg.conf a bit | 09:08 |
| gorilla_ | psychonate, you can still stuff up with a typo... | 09:08 |
| jbmigel | jacquesmerde i cant apt-get update without a sudo in front... how does it?? | 09:08 |
| Segosa | people should learn a lesson when they rm -rf / accidentally on root | 09:09 |
| Segosa | their fault | 09:09 |
| psychonate | I'd rather just have root I think | 09:09 |
| ivoks | with sudo it is easier to create working desktop | 09:09 |
| ivoks | that's why it is used | 09:09 |
| psychonate | I have never 'rm -rf /' | 09:09 |
| rj_ | ivoks: it's scary - http://atlantica.homeip.net/apt/sources.list | 09:09 |
| ivoks | but, u can allways enable root and use both | 09:09 |
| gorilla_ | ivoks, if an attacker as a root password then it is game over, likewise if the you have "allow all" sudo access. | 09:09 |
| psychonate | are there any limitations on the 'sudo su'? | 09:09 |
| Segosa | whicih I have done ivoks | 09:09 |
| dabaSlon | maybe there is a block, too | 09:09 |
| jacquesmerde | jbmigel, i'm guessing its not sudo apt-get updating. sudo apt-get update alters file not in your home directory. but any user can look online for available packages, look at instralled packages and compare | 09:09 |
| psychonate | ah, I need to restart X; 60Hz kills me | 09:10 |
| dabaSlon | rj_: wow | 09:10 |
| Jimbob | psychonate: or "sudo -s" or "sudo -i" | 09:10 |
| ivoks | gorilla_ well, when attacker has root password, on right setup he can't do anything | 09:10 |
| psychonate | I'm not very familiar with sudo; I've never really used it much | 09:10 |
| psychonate | brb | 09:10 |
| ivoks | gorilla_ couse u can disallow root login on console and over ssh | 09:10 |
| Segosa | does anyone know, when using iptables, whether if you block all incoming packets it includes _all_, or only ones which are attempting to connect to you (syn packets) ;/? | 09:10 |
| transgress | yeah it's in the conf | 09:10 |
| gorilla_ | ivoks, which is not a typical ubuntu or debain install.. | 09:10 |
| ivoks | gorilla_ this way he must do su from plain user | 09:10 |
| rj_ | dabaSlon: i know | 09:11 |
| ivoks | gorilla_ then u can allow only special users to su, not all | 09:11 |
| gorilla_ | I perfer to have the sudo log to say who modified file X. | 09:11 |
| jbmigel | jacquesmerde you mean any user can see all packages i have installed? thats even worse! | 09:11 |
| rOss^FX | anyone else have AMD FX? and running ubuntu? in i686 mode? | 09:11 |

| |QuaD-_ | *bazaar-ng | 10:11 |
| g14 | bob2, He disagreed with some stuff that gets bundled with ubuntu and decided to leave canonical because it. Hes actually the guy who got me hooked on my first debian distro | 10:11 |
| bob2 | bazaar is derived from tla which is Arch, which has some basic design problems | 10:11 |
| bob2 | and is in C | 10:11 |
| bob2 | bazaar-ng is an entirely new tool written in python, which is based on the ideas of lots of systems | 10:12 |
| bob2 | including darcs, monotone, subversion and arch. | 10:12 |
| bob2 | g14: ah, I see | 10:12 |
| |QuaD-_ | bob2: so why is their continued development on bazaar? | 10:12 |
| g14 | Totally decentralized version control for building components of a distro | 10:12 |
| yahalom | bob2,ah ok. uncomment it too obviously? | 10:12 |

| bob2 | yahalom: uncomment it, yes | 10:13 |
| ivoks_ | g14 who's that guy? | 10:13 |
| bob2 | yahalom: I'd assume you'd need a seperate line for each dns server you want to prepend | 10:13 |
| yahalom | bob2, this will work with adsl too? | 10:13 |
| |QuaD-_ | bob2: interesting | 10:13 |
| bob2 | |QuaD-_: also, bazaar's continued development means I have a job ;-p | 10:13 |

| bob2 | yahalom: if you use dhcp to get your details, yes | 10:13 |
| bob2 | psychonate: chmod ugo=rwx /share/ | 10:14 |
| bob2 | psychonate: or do you mean "I have a fat32 drive I want to mount as /share/ ..."? | 10:14 |

| === Amaranth goes to bed | ||

| crimsun | |QuaD-_: sure. | 10:16 |

| |QuaD-_ | blah! gnome-blog will still not add to my panel! | 10:17 |
| psychonate | er, you mean you want to change the port that your client uses? | 10:17 |
| Freezing | yeap | 10:17 |
| bob2 | jbmigel: it's a proper linux filesystem. you can just set the permissions on the filesystem itself directly. | 10:17 |
| psychonate | Bittornado gui? | 10:17 |
| Freezing | :) | 10:17 |
| yahalom | bob2, ok we'll see, thanx :) | 10:17 |
| bob2 | no, gnome-bittorent, I assume | 10:17 |
| psychonate | in preferences, you can specify the port range | 10:17 |
| bob2 | yahalom: np...if it doesn't work, please do tell me so I know for next time... | 10:18 |
| psychonate | (at least in the bittornado gui, and probably in other clients) | 10:18 |
| |QuaD-_ | "The Panel encountered a problem while loading "'OAFIID:GNOME_BlogApplet'" is the error i get when i try to ad it to my panel | 10:18 |
| psychonate | you'll probably need to forward the ports though if you're behind a router or something | 10:18 |
| yahalom | bob2, yeah will do, so just making it non writeable wouldnt work just as well, just curious | 10:18 |
| crimsun | |QuaD-_: there's a newer version in Sid, I'll just ask for a sync from there | 10:19 |

| thoreauputic | g14: yes | 10:41 |
| thoreauputic | I like what I see so far | 10:41 |
| g14 | thoreauputic, One of the things I love about gnome is gnome-volume-manager | 10:41 |
| thoreauputic | The only issue is multiple entries in the menu | 10:41 |
| psychonate | nothing like listening to some Kurosawa film music at 4:41 AM | 10:41 |

| s_yuan31tee | hi, i heard ubuntu hoary use new x windows system (x.org), i was wondering what is the old x windows system for warty? | 10:44 |
| thoreauputic | g14: rox loads faster and is configurable to the nth degree | 10:44 |
| s_yuan31tee | any note need to take caution while i perform upgrading from warty to hoary? | 10:44 |
| crimsun | s_yuan31tee: XFree86 | 10:44 |
| thoreauputic | g14: appfolders are only used by the rox DE - which I don't use | 10:45 |
| crimsun | s_yuan31tee: the dist-upgrade from warty->hoary converts the conffile automatically | 10:45 |
| g14 | thoreauputic, but rox still doesn't do hotplug | 10:45 |
| s_yuan31tee | crimsun: why using x.org and not XFree86? any particular reasons for doing so? :) | 10:45 |
| thoreauputic | g14: true | 10:45 |
| crimsun | s_yuan31tee: a variety of reasons, namely fewer possible licensing hassles and active development of features | 10:46 |
| thoreauputic | g14: I don't really need hotplug here: i don't have peripherals that require it | 10:46 |
| crimsun | g14: one can always execute gnome-volume-manager | 10:46 |
| g14 | s_yuan31tee, because the xfree development team turned into a burecratic nightmare that stifled innovation. x.org is a fork | 10:46 |

| benplaut | crimsun: the ones mentioned on the DRI binary site | 10:51 |

| hondje | newish platform and all, though I'd imagine a lot of OSS geeks bought one | 10:52 |
| crimsun | anethema: probably best to leave PCM < 77% | 10:52 |
| sir-gold | it depends on how much the butchered the mac mini | 10:52 |
| thoreauputic | crimsun: hmm lsof | grep /dev/dsp* comes up empty, but gstreamer says another program is using it :/ | 10:52 |
| anethema | okay but | 10:52 |
| anethema | what is linux doing different | 10:52 |
| anethema | where this doesnt happen in windows | 10:52 |
| crimsun | thoreauputic: lsof /dev/snd/* | 10:52 |
| thoreauputic | crimsun: OK | 10:53 |
| hondje | not major, seems to be a fan or superdrive problem, but hard to track to hardware or software, since I'm not hip to macs | 10:53 |
| crimsun | anethema: windows doesn't necessarily use the codec to adjust mixer levels | 10:53 |
| thoreauputic | crimsun: xfce-mcs- 2215 peter 6u CHR 116,0 6767 /dev/snd/controlC0 | 10:53 |
| thoreauputic | xfce4-pan 2224 peter 9u CHR 116,0 6767 /dev/snd/controlC0 | 10:53 |
| anethema | what do you mean? | 10:53 |
| crimsun | anethema: software volume mixer | 10:53 |
| thoreauputic | crimsun: I have no idea what that means :) | 10:53 |
| anethema | well i mean, going into the volume control in windows, and cranking the volumes..nothing distorts | 10:54 |
| crimsun | thoreauputic: those are both inconsequential | 10:54 |
| _joey | crimsun how do I set this permenantly ? | 10:54 |
| anethema | do that now and its unlistenable | 10:54 |
| sir-gold | anethema is it still the same volume? | 10:54 |
| thoreauputic | crimsun: yet amarok refuses to use gstreamer engine? | 10:54 |
| anethema | yeah | 10:54 |
| anethema | like | 10:54 |
| crimsun | anethema: ALSA attempts to use the hardware codec to adjust the mixer elements always | 10:54 |
| anethema | and what does the windows mixer do ? | 10:55 |
| crimsun | anethema: uses a software mixer | 10:55 |
| anethema | so how does windows achieve the same volume without distortion | 10:55 |

| crimsun | anethema: the software mixer emulates a hardware mixer without actually doing it. | 10:56 |
| shido6 | i think I have to change the order of my sound somehow... | 10:56 |
| shido6 | I changed usb to 0 | 10:56 |
| crimsun | shido6: yes | 10:56 |
| shido6 | and the soundmax to 1 or 2 | 10:56 |
| anethema | what im basically asking is..how can i get high volumes in gnome, wihtout distortion | 10:56 |
| shido6 | and I cant remember how to change it back | 10:56 |
| crimsun | shido6: cat /proc/asound/modules | 10:56 |
| shido6 | i love the ubuntu support! | 10:56 |
| crimsun | anethema: leave your pcm < 77% | 10:56 |
| anethema | but then sound is quiet | 10:56 |
| shido6 | yes crimsun, cat /proc/asound/modules thanks | 10:56 |
| crimsun | anethema: adjusting Master doesn't do anything? | 10:57 |
| anethema | yes master is at max | 10:57 |
| thoreauputic | crimsun: I can only assume there was a lag between installing the engine and having it recognised... | 10:57 |
| crimsun | thoreauputic: a simple restart of amarok should have sufficed | 10:57 |
| anethema | crimsun, is there a way to MAKE it stay under 77 percent? | 10:57 |
| anethema | like a config file saying the new pcm max is 77 and thats that ? | 10:57 |

| anethema | to make pcm volume have a max of 77 percent | 10:59 |
| anethema | still adjust, but not higher than 77 | 10:59 |
| crimsun | well, to do that you'd have to change the source and recompile the alsa driver | 10:59 |
| anethema | ah yeah | 11:01 |

| anethema | im not really a programmer | 11:01 |
| anethema | heh | 11:01 |
| crimsun | the problem is not really implementing a max for your specific hardware configuration | 11:02 |
| crimsun | it's enabling a max that would work for all cards using that chipset | 11:02 |
| anethema | 77 percent isnt a good max? | 11:02 |
| crimsun | (since even cards that use the same chipset can use different ac97 codecs) | 11:02 |
| anethema | i dunno, i just want no distortion | 11:03 |
| anethema | you accidentially turn something up too high and all the sudden everything sounds like crap | 11:03 |

| topyli | Tallia1: which is good if you want to have java in your path | 12:21 |
| jacquesmerde | hmm...as soon as i changed my ubuntu machine from DHCP to static IP, the machine completely lost the ability to translate domain names | 12:22 |

| jacquesmerde | jkka, well, i was going to use that administration --> networking front-end (was that created by ubuntu or gnome?), but i dont know the address | 12:25 |
| bob2 | because xfree86 is dead | 12:25 |
| mjr | s_yuan31tee, perhaps because x.org is where it's happening these days | 12:25 |
| jkka | if you dont know what to use, set up dhcp again, cat /etc/resolv.conf | 12:25 |
| metalsand | hey bob2, are you free now? | 12:25 |
| shido6 | i think i fixed it | 12:25 |
| shido6 | I just removed the sound card module from nano /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base | 12:25 |
| bob2 | the 4.4 license is useless, and x.org is where everyone's doing development | 12:25 |
| shido6 | and i rebooted | 12:25 |
| bob2 | metalsand: for? | 12:26 |
| shido6 | so soundmax got a 0 | 12:26 |
| Tallia1 | topyli: why i have to do both the operations in order to make java operative? | 12:26 |

| metalsand | Last time I tried to get help you said you were busy ATM | 12:26 |
| topyli | Tallia1: ah, you're probably setting the $JAVA_HOME variable in bashrc, and the link is just to find the binary | 12:26 |

| jeroen_ | Hello, does anyone know how to play .mid files in Ubuntu? | 12:27 |

| anethema | brb | 12:27 |
| metalsand | http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/RestrictedFormats | 12:27 |
| jeroen_ | YsCo, because I downloaded one? | 12:27 |
| Tallia1 | the $JAVA_HOME is created in the bashrc file too | 12:27 |
| jeroen_ | metalsand, is midi restricted? | 12:28 |
| metalsand | I think there's support in there, jeroen_ | 12:28 |
| metalsand | I'm not sure, but I remember scanning thorugh that and seeing that | 12:28 |
| metalsand | seeing mid support | 12:28 |
| metalsand | Could be making things up, though :P | 12:28 |
| YscO | i think you're making things up :p | 12:28 |
| metalsand | Well, it is 3:30 AM, so.. that's definatley possible :P | 12:29 |
| topyli | Tallia1: ok, step 3. that's so that your shell finds java. the link is probably for scripts and possibly the mozilla plugin | 12:29 |
| ompaul | metalsand, don't be silly it is 11:30am :-) | 12:29 |
| metalsand | bob2: do you think you can take a stab at my issue | 12:29 |

| Tallia1 | hi!! :) i wanna ask you a thing.. i'm a newbie of kubuntu.. there's a way to autoexec an application on kde launch??!? | 12:32 |
| jeroen_ | Tallia1: it's possible with gnome, but I'm not sure on KDE | 12:33 |
| jacquesmerde | topyli, i'm just wondering why the launcher for firefox has as its command, "firefox %u"? | 12:33 |
| Tallia1 | how it was possible with gnome?!? | 12:33 |
| thoreauputic | Tallia1: yes, there's an Autostart entry in .kde or something like that | 12:33 |
| ompaul | Tallia1, #kunbuntu may be of use to you there | 12:33 |
| jacquesmerde | topyli, is that so you can edit the command to "firefox %u www.google.com" etc.. to externally set the start page? | 12:34 |
| nanomad | jacquesmerde, %u its for url | 12:34 |
| jacquesmerde | nanomad, i still dont see what its doing there | 12:34 |
| jacquesmerde | just plain firefox seems to do the samething | 12:34 |
| nanomad | substituting a variable | 12:34 |
| topyli | jacquesmerde: i have no idea. :) maybe there's a $DEFAULT_URL variable or something defined by the distro | 12:34 |
| jacquesmerde | substituting what for what? | 12:34 |
| thoreauputic | Tallia1: I think you just put your script in ~/.kde/Autostart | 12:34 |

| nanomad | substitutes %u with the contents of that variable | 12:35 |
| ompaul | jacquesmerde, so you can start it with a url - i.e. if something says lauch firefox - it is the tool that firefox uses to import the url so that its launch is useful | 12:35 |
| nanomad | i think it contains the home page | 12:35 |
| jacquesmerde | and what IS the contents of that variable? how do you set it? | 12:35 |

| Nalioth | jamesio, you may run your box forever (or as long as the power company lets you) | 04:04 |
| thoreauputic | DanglyBits: I believe you have to dd the whole drive ( hda as opposed to say hda1) or make a separate copy of the mbr | 04:04 |
| Nalioth | jamesio, however, the more wild and crazy you get with your box, ymmv | 04:05 |
| jamesio | I plan on installing ubuntu on 4 machines: dell inspiron 8200 [p4m 1.8, 512m, 1600x1200] , compaq presario laptop [cel 700, 512m, 1400x1050] , pseudo-server [cel 2.4, 1 gig, 6x160gig, 7x300 gig, no monitor in the end] and my desktop [ dual amd 2400, 2 gig, 3 monitors, 1.2ter] | 04:05 |

| exalted | Uuntu himself installs as default gcc-3.3, i want to upgrade to gcc-4.0, but i think this isn't an upgrade issue, because it isn't considered as an upgrade, but an indipendent install issue. So after installing also gcc-4.0 (which i already did) when i'm trying to remove the "old" gcc-3.3 it tries to remove almost every piece of my system. What can you say about this? | 04:45 |
| ^thehatsrule^ | jacquesmerde, should be faster than Nalioth's, since the standard is 10/100MBps | 04:45 |

| exalted | ivoks, so no problems if i remove gcc-3.3? | 04:52 |
| Deffie | exalted: a metapackage is a reference to many packages, asking to remove it you ask to remove all the packages that it references | 04:52 |
| ivoks | exalted no | 04:52 |
| topyli | Kouros: not really | 04:52 |
| jamesio | gazzie, I'm fairly new to ubuntu, but I have found that the "new user install script" in the tips forum (it's a stickie at the top) will install everything to make that work | 04:53 |

| djm62 | ^Alone^: the real answer is "it's free, try it" ;) don't want to install, get the liveCD | 07:59 |

| ineti | i've got a problem with booting my selfmade kernel....ich compiled a new 2.6.11.8 kernel on my ubunto 5.04 und i get always errors wirh vfs panic when trying to boot it ....my kernel doesn't use a initial ramdisk and i disabled the ramdisk in /boot/grub/menu.lst | 07:59 |

| snugglebunny | topyli, There is no good single system. Totem is nice for vid and rhythm is nice for audio | 08:57 |

| topyli | snugglebunny: yeah, so far i've settled for them | 08:57 |
| snugglebunny | I think one of the biggest problems atm is the lack of relationship between media files and programs and a cohesive library system | 08:57 |
| Jibby | anyone know why when i use gxine the audio/video is outta sync? | 08:57 |
| amonkey | fator_dee: it's a server on a fat ass pipe, and i want to torrent off of it. i couldn't access the azureus interface, but i'm using torrentflux but the upload rate is dismal. much the same as it would be if i didn't have my nat setup right | 08:57 |

| topyli | Fish-Face: hoary is so old you can't get your work done? :) | 11:34 |
| roben | topyli: a fault came when handling the package. | 11:34 |
| Fish-Face | topyli, the FAQ states they inserted a tilde into the version, which will force the use of other upgrades. I don't know how apt-get works, in that respect, though | 11:34 |
| topyli | roben: what does it say? | 11:34 |
| Fish-Face | tritium, specifically, gimp. Non-specifically, I like things up-to-date | 11:34 |

| tritium | Fish-Face, if you don't want to wait for breezy to be released, upgrade to it beforehand, and track its updates | 11:35 |
| tritium | But it's unstable at present | 11:36 |
| Fish-Face | tritium, apparently that's unadvisable... More so than backports | 11:36 |
| roben | topyli: no, "sudo dpkg -i" | 11:36 |
| tritium | Fish-Face, right now it is. Backports are always unadvisable ;) | 11:36 |
| topyli | roben: ah, of course | 11:36 |
| topyli | roben: try "sudo dpkg -i *.deb" | 11:36 |
| djm62 | hoary is the second most up-to-date linux distro atm | 11:37 |
| Fish-Face | djm62, what's the most? | 11:37 |
| djm62 | suse 9.3 has mono and beagle.. | 11:37 |
| g14 | <troll>gentoo is the most up to date distor always :) </troll> | 11:37 |
| roben | topyli: that is what I did when the fault appeared. | 11:37 |
| djm62 | and it costs money, and isn't as easy to keep updated | 11:37 |
| Fish-Face | Because FC3 has gimp 2.2.>2, firefox 1.0.>1 and so on | 11:37 |
| g14 | Suse still has the best wireless support of any distro | 11:37 |
| Fish-Face | gl4: suse didn't support my card | 11:38 |
| djm62 | g14: you find? | 11:38 |
| topyli | roben: if you "ls", is the file really there? | 11:38 |
| djm62 | g14: suse is a damn good distro...but it doesn't quite do things my way | 11:38 |
| Fish-Face | And it didn't have gcc or kernel source, so I couldn't compile a driver... | 11:38 |
| roben | topyli: "roben@Obonto:~$ ls | 11:39 |

| Fish-Face | Ah well... I shall have to pray that Ubuntu gets updates itself | 11:39 |
| g14 | Well suse came with the madwifi, ndiswrapper, working bluetooth, the wireless-ng stuff and more way before any other distro. On top of that, it mostly worked | 11:39 |
| vladster | gnome will not start, I get an error about not reading the ICE authority file | 11:39 |
