[02:19] transgress, you have to mount them in other systems who dont use hotplug [02:19] well my other system has hotplug [02:19] but it won't mount by hand either [02:19] transgress: Sounds like it's thoroughly broken, though. [02:19] if it were thoroughly broken it wouldn't mount in ubuntu now would it/ [02:20] transgress, are other systems Ubuntu ?

[02:21] s/'// [02:21] nothing to do with it [02:21] maybe you need to umount it then fdisk [02:21] is reinit a command? i deleted all the partitions from it with fdisk on the ubuntu box, then remade them...

[02:24] is that cause he tried to install mplayer a virtual package [02:24] and update afterwards? [02:24] libavcodeccvs wants a libc6 that is newer than what your machine has. [02:24] isai: that's why... marillat breaks dependencies... turn off marillat after you get the couple packages you may need (libdvdcss2 and w32codecs probably) and apt-get update again [02:24] isai, goto ubuntuguide.org few commands to get mplayer up and running [02:25] isai: err enable multiverse and universe then apt-get update again [02:25] just tell aptitude to install the version of mplayer-586 from multiverse [02:25] reds, maybe. [02:25] hmm, how do i install emacs ? its not in universe [02:25] yes, i did reload [02:25] i am trying mplayer-586 [02:25] sorry, about not using pastebin.. i didn't know to do that.

[02:26] ok, i will try turning off marillat first and then reloading. [02:26] isai: make sure you have only the testing repo from marillat enabled. You'll also need multiverse. Then aptitude install mplayer-586=1:1.0-pre6-0.3ubuntu6 [02:26] sure... [02:26] cafuego: ah i see... wonder how long it will take me to dd zeros over the entire drive [02:26] so im running the intel em64t should I use a different apt repository?

[03:29] Janux: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-25372.html [03:29] i thought the whole point of having things like /usr/bin and /usr/local/bin was that i could compile from source without fear of mucking up packaged stuff.

Welcome memory leaks! :P [08:49] joh, yep :P [08:49] it drives me absolutely bonkers how they name things by their description instead of their name. There is a name and comment field, so for gedit it should be GEDIT, TEXT EDITOR. Instead it's TEXT EDITOR, EDIT TEXT FILES or something terrible like that. [08:49] heh [08:49] that's sad [08:49] :( [08:50] gdesklets suck? [08:50] I just thought of something [08:50] I could also use the XFCE panel [08:50] BROKEN_LADDER, Hmm My menu have the name of the program... [08:50] why would they be more prone to memory leaks? [08:50] dr_willis no way. [08:50] BROKEN_LADDER: that is much more user friendly than actually displaying the program name. [08:50] dr_willis look in accessories. [08:50] sweet, ogle worx [08:50] no it's not. [08:50] it makes it take longer to find programs. [08:51] the comment/description is what the comment field is for joh [08:51] the name is, duh, for the name. [08:51] of course i got kde and loads of other things installed. I do know that KDE has options for just what you are ranting about :P [08:51] Ive seen otehr Disrtos do the exact same thing. [08:51] of course it has an option [08:51] the .desktop file should be correctly written, then you can leave it up to the menu to have configurability to display the comment instead of the name if a user chooses.

[08:54] xfce is nice in so many ways.. and weird in so many others. :P [08:54] it's all about the e17 [08:54] :P [08:54] gnome is pretty slick nowadays. i don't know how they did it, but _finally_ if i touch to create a file in terminal, nautilus shows it instantly. === iceman [~iceman@ip68-103-13-66.ks.ok.cox.net] has joined #ubuntu [08:54] dr_willis: it's fast though :P but that's about it [08:54] i don't think it's polling.

[08:55] BeOS's file manager was weird in some ways also. :P [08:55] dr_willis: any idea where to look?? === sebastian_ is now known as sebastyan [08:55] joh the issue is that for so long apps didn't take advantage of it.

[08:57] are you crazy? [08:57] BROKEN_LADDER: I don't know for sure though. I know that HAL takes advantage of some file monitoring in the kernel. [08:57] nautilus doesn't do that either.

[10:16] hi [10:16] hi omV0 [10:16] Seveas i helped him by telling him how to install kde. i installed kde in this way and it worked and was easy. [10:16] BROKEN_LADDER, you told him the wrong way [10:16] iceman, only one program can install stuff at anyone time. Thus apt-get and synaptic both be running [10:16] wrong how? [10:16] the kde metapackage is in universe, kubuntu-desktop in main [10:17] it worked perfectly. [10:17] last night my computer restarted while i was away (i had some processes running so it was bad).. this is the 2nd time this happened in a month.. how can i check what causes it to restart? [10:17] some people prefer only stuff in main [10:17] what is the point of kubuntu? [10:17] omV0, check the logfiles in /var/log [10:17] as opposed to just installing kde for those who wish to choose it at the gdm? [10:17] BROKEN_LADDER: the entire purpose of it is to give you something to be annoyed about. really, it's all about you [10:17] BROKEN_LADDER, kubuntu is kde done in an Ubuntu style [10:17] hyphenated that doesn't answer my question. [10:18] omV0, /var/log/syslog and /var/log/kern.log will probably give you most insight [10:18] Burgundavia but ubuntu style is so ugly. why would anyone want to do that? === Mogge [~Morgoth@h12n4fls32o1041.telia.com] has joined #ubuntu [10:18] okay g'night folks.

[10:22] omV0, that it's been cycled on restart [10:22] try syslog.0 [10:22] that's the older log [10:23] "May 26 04:18:05 localhost exiting on signal 15" [10:23] thats SIGTERM [10:24] anything before that?

[11:48] Sevaes the xine-pages to wich the wiki refers in case of trouble suggest: engine.buffers.video_num_buffers:500 to a higher value (e.g. 1000 or 2500). I that going to change anyting [11:48] Then you can configure it for a server. :) [11:49] MM2: You will definitely enjoy having the same system on both your server and workstation.. [11:49] I was so stupid to "apt-get install kubuntu-desktop". This installed a whole lot of kde-stuff. Now I want to get rid of everything (except k3b). any tips on a quick and dirty way to remove every kde-related item? (I can reinstall k3b afterwards) === Garathor [~Unknown@213-145-178-167.dd.nextgentel.com] has joined #Ubuntu [11:51] sudo apt-get remove kdelibs [11:51] Raskall uninstall using the synaptic package manager === claint [~claint@195.174.26.109] has joined #ubuntu [11:52] sebdc: how do I find and mark all relevant packages? or are they under one category? [11:52] raskaal i'll check! [11:53] hmm actually kdelibs is just a metapackage, sorry [11:54] Hmm... then I'll move my www server from debian to ubuntu... [11:54] thoreauputic, install debfoster [11:54] you can prune kubuntu-desktop with that [11:54] (prune = remove and remove all dependencies no other program needs) [11:54] Seveas: I was trying to help Raskall - nut yes, debfoster would help him [11:54] ehm yeah sorry :) [11:55] Raskall, those lines were for you [11:55] Raskall under ubuntu-desktop let me check relevanties! [11:55] debfoster is so cool for these things :) [11:56] Raskall, I think if you mark kubuntu-desktop for uninstall, it will uninstall all the packages that came with it. [11:56] It won't. [11:56] Doesn't it? [11:56] nope [11:56] that won't work with metapackages [11:56] Seveas: thanx. :) I'll install debfoster and rtfm. :) thanx === dmoyne [~dmoyne@dyn-83-155-61-104.ppp.tiscali.fr] has left #ubuntu ["Kopete] [11:56] It could be made so, but it would be stupid. [11:57] metapackage depends on other packages but the other packages won't depend on the metapackage [11:57] if they did, installing qtlibs would install all of kubuntu-desktop [11:57] :) [11:58] and trying to remove all the crap would force you to remove qtlibs too. [11:58] Raskall1 automatic updat cappability is lost if ubuntu-desktop is de-installed, thats all! [11:58] by the way: I discovered pdumpfs the other day. An excellent way to back up a home system to an external disk. It amazed me in its power and simplicity. [11:58] sebdc: well, not really. :D [11:58] sebdc: ok, so I will have to run "apt-get update; apt-get upgrade" manually? [11:58] just your ubuntu-desktop will not get extra software automatically. [11:58] Choubaka what do you mean :p === jim__ [~jim@modemcable183.99-202-24.mc.videotron.ca] has joined #ubuntu === TiffOn [user@218.Red-217-126-197.pooles.rima-tde.net] has joined #ubuntu [11:59] sebdc: apt-get upgrade will still work [11:59] If only all these nice little utilities are also in kubuntu... [11:59] they are Atholas [11:59] Even auto update? [11:59] Raskall, sebdc is talking nonsense [11:59] kubuntu and ubuntu are not separate. [11:59] they're the same .) [11:59] he does not understand what you want to do [11:59] just a different default set of packages. [12:00] Hi guys! [12:00] But auto update doesn't work for KDE, does it? [12:00] of course it does. [12:00] Atholas, sure it does [12:00] the auto-update doesn't depend on gnome OR KDE. [12:00] you just need at least anacron and update-manager installed [12:00] and both ubuntu-desktop and kubuntu-dektop depend on these [12:01] I'm very new to Linux === echylo__ [~echylo@49-148.246.81.adsl.skynet.be] has joined #ubuntu [12:01] I thought I'd give it try via ubuntu [12:01] jim__: Welcome to our world. [12:01] I have a question [12:01] Usually I'd just apt-get update; apt-get upgrade, but auto update is making me really lazy and for a minute I thought i can't use it in KDE === spike [~spike@spike.user] has joined #ubuntu [12:01] Sevaes yep that is why I listen is so often; but the synaptic package manager didn't worn me for any other concequences! [12:01] hi there [12:01] (several actually, but I'll start with one, if that's ok?) [12:01] jim__, read the topic: just ask :) [12:01] ask all you want [12:01] anybody here moved his/her servers from debian to ubuntu? === naderman [~naderman@p508B62A0.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #ubuntu [12:02] spike, well, the ubuntu guys did, all ubuntu.com/ubuntulinux.org etc... servers run Ubuntu :) [12:02] spike: You know, with Sarge being released anytime now, I see no benefit of moving a working debian server to ubuntu. :) [12:03] Seveas: that's strange. The update notifier that sits in the gnome-panel would disappear if I go to KDE :( [12:03] I managed to burn a copy of ubuntu 5.04 add-on [12:03] I've tried to run it but it doesn't seem to work. [12:03] jim__: hmm. === telemaco [~telemaco@18.Red-83-35-178.pooles.rima-tde.net] has joined #ubuntu [12:03] what add-on? [12:03] jim__, the packages on the add-on cd can be downloaded too [12:04] the add-on cd is meant for people with no or slow internet access [12:04] but I have tried to install "cpufreqd" via apt-get, but when I do that, apt wants to remove the packages powernowd and ubuntu-desktop. The first one should be ok to remove, but why does it insist on removing ubuntu-desktop? [12:04] Raskall: ubuntu-desktop depends on powernowd [12:04] Choubaka: security patches for sarge is one imho. and don't tell me there's a team for it. I know, but they aren't actively working on it, they're still in a pre-check phase [12:04] Raskall, you do not need cpufreqd [12:05] Well, it's burned now and I'm trying to run it but it gives me an error message [12:05] Raskall: I assime powernowd does what cpufreqd would. [12:05] Seveas: someone told me it works better with laptops than powernowd. [12:05] and ubuntu-desktop is a matepackage, it's ok to remove it [12:05] assume* [12:05] :P [12:05] Raskall, hmm, that someone is wrong :) === ekpneo [~ekpneo@12-220-61-97.client.insightBB.com] has joined #ubuntu [12:05] cpufreqd works fine on my centrino [12:05] Choubaka: and from an adminin point of view ubuntu release cycle looks easier to deal with [12:06] Can't I simply right click the install.sh file and "run in terminal"? [12:06] spike: Your choice. :) [12:06] jim__, no [12:06] I run FreeBSD on my server just because. :D [12:06] that would say "access denied" or something [12:06] seveas: ok but I've gone the manual route and that didn't seem to work either [12:06] Seveas: can you point me to the linky or give me directions if i want to remove gnome and make xfce default [12:06] jim__: manual route? [12:06] jim__, can you paste the error mesage on ubuntu.pastebin.com please [12:07] eskaypey, sudo aptitude install xfce4 [12:07] I can certainly try [12:07] jim__: try " sh install.sh" in the directory it's in [12:07] eskaypey, and use debfoster to prune gnome-desktop [12:07] howto make a folder shortcut? === spike [~spike@spike.user] has left #ubuntu ["."] [12:07] zkruw, ln -s /path/to/folder [12:07] thx [12:07] do that in the folder where you want the shortcut [12:07] that's not a shortcut. [12:08] or well, it is [12:08] but it's a symbolic link [12:08] no. but that was what i meant :) [12:08] there are no windows-like shortcuts on linux (thank god) [12:08] you can also us nautilus for doing a shortcut :) [12:08] slightly different what people consider a shortcut :) [12:08] Seveas: ok.. :) I take your word for it. :) [12:08] iknow this is better [12:08] much better [12:08] what do you guys think of nautilus? === susus [~sz@p5089F676.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #ubuntu [12:09] I find it confusing ;) [12:09] nautilus is ok [12:09] zoner_: does its job [12:09] but i switched off spatial mode :) [12:09] I don't use any file manager :P [12:09] yeah, what else to use :)? [12:09] Seveas: ok thanx i'll try that [12:09] zkruw: bash :D [12:09] Seveas, How did you do that? [12:09] zkruw, rox-filer ? [12:09] zoner_: read the manual and things are suddenly clearer [12:09] rox filer is nice [12:09] hehe [12:09] hhurtta, thanks ;) [12:09] zoner_: what confuses you? perhaps you need to configure it "just so you like it" [12:09] i like nautilius after changing some settings :) [12:09] I never quite understood rox-filer [12:09] zoner_, file->preferences->behaviour->always open in browser windows [12:10] like we use to say, RTFM [12:10] it's not intuitive. [12:10] lol [12:10] The problem is that I don't know what the hell I'm doing. [12:10] :D [12:10] well.. now I am getting used to spatial mode [12:10] Choubaka, there's always bash as filemanagere :) [12:10] Choubaka: each to his own :) === freex [~freex@202.69.167.225] has joined #ubuntu [12:10] I want to be able to understand basic features of GUIs without RTFM'ing :) [12:10] Seveas: yeah.

I've just had Konquerer crash while viewing a PDF, Firefox crash when I right-clicked a flash after viewing and closing a few (quite predictably. It's always the 3rd swf I right-click that does it), and also while viewing a second thing using the mplayer plugin. [12:34] nm, I see it [12:34] Choubaka, compiling isnt really that hard [12:34] jim__: it should be in the internet menu, or type ` sudo firestarter ` in a terminal [12:34] r0d: I know. [12:34] I do it a lot. [12:34] Choubaka: compiling is reserved for those who require weird software [12:34] Oh, I have a question. Is it at all possible, under any desktop environment, to have two sound channels mixed together? [12:35] topyli: true :D [12:35] Friggen awesome! Ihope this works [12:35] r0d: just, "compiling" on gentoo is not really compiling. [12:35] Choubaka, it was tedious to me. thats y I'm on ubuntu. i sure do miss emerge though :( [12:35] I mean like, say I want to have a media player and also zsnes or something [12:35] Choubaka: i've compiled maybe two or three packages on ubuntu [12:35] it's just automated package installation from sources. [12:35] spinifex, that's what esd is for [12:35] how do I get it to work? [12:35] and by default ubuntu uses esd [12:35] so it should work ootb [12:36] when esd is running, sound doesn't work in my media player, zsnes, or web browser [12:36] spinifex, you would probably have to tweak the esd settings === IndigoAK [~Jonathan@209-193-57-241-cdsl-rb1.fai.acsalaska.net] has joined #ubuntu [12:36] spinifex, teach these programs to use esd then :) [12:36] I tweaked the settings as it said in the faq [12:36] how do I do that?

I have been using fc2 and am familiar with (not lately) slackware and mandrake, all of which I have also installed on laptops. [05:37] Jormundgand, ok. [05:37] looking for some feedback on ubunto for a possibility [05:38] s/unbunto/ubuntu (sorry) [05:38] Tsingi, well.. if you have a direct question, just ask.. you've come to the right place :) [05:38] can't type:) [05:38] Tsingi: it's probably the best linux distro i've used yet. fairly painless installation, and sane defaults === ade [~ade@215.Red-83-52-20.pooles.rima-tde.net] has joined #ubuntu [05:38] ubuntu is very very nice [05:38] I use it for my desktop here [05:38] Tsingi, if you want c#/mono development, you'd better wait for the next ubuntu version [05:38] I run 5.04 [05:38] well, I will be installing it on a laptop first of all, I will be travelling but I have a lot to do [05:38] Tsingi: for a laptop though, i'd be careful to check the supported hardware. especially if you run wifi. [05:38] Having issues booting into X. I looked into boot.log and it states: "Couldn't get a file descriptor referring to the console." Interestingly, from tty7 (GUI) I go to tty6 and back to tty7, everything works. Any ideas why the X and consoles are behaving this way? [05:38] otherwise: ubuntu is nice, build-dependencies and -dev debfiles are a charm [05:39] Tsingi, what are the specs of your laptop (cpu/mem/gpu/wifi) [05:39] Tsingi: it might be advisable to first try the livecd to determine what works, and what doesn't. === Hoxzer [Hoxzer@dsl-hkigw2p34.dial.inet.fi] has joined #ubuntu [05:39] I haven't bought the laptop yet, It won't be new:) === brdweb [~brdweb@dsl092-173-023.wdc2.dsl.speakeasy.net] has joined #ubuntu === xota [~neoworld@hiscpdprx01.upsa.es] has joined #ubuntu [05:39] Jormundgand, you compiled your own kernel? [05:39] Tsingi: in that case, i suggest going with an LG. I have a friend here that runs one, and all the hardware was supported out of the box :) [05:39] Tsingi, ubuntu has been reported a lot of times to wirk fine on laptops. On my laptops (hp and medion) it works like a charm [05:40] it's an LW50 iirc [05:40] any ideas how I detect my modem? === reagleBRKLN [~reagleBRK@cpe-69-203-149-103.si.res.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu === Hoxzer [Hoxzer@dsl-hkigw2p34.dial.inet.fi] has joined #ubuntu === HiddenWolf [~hidden@136.26.dynamic.phpg.net] has joined #ubuntu [05:40] Tsingi, if you are going to buy one with wifi: stay clear of broadcom wifi chips!

[05:40] *modem [05:40] actyually I've been pretty lucky with laptos so far, I've prolly installed on 7 or 8 of them in the long run and they've all worked pretty good. [05:40] Seveas: i run a broadcom chipset. it works fine through ndiswrapper. [05:41] caffinated, yeahm but ndiswrapper is evil [05:41] though, that requires some extra work [05:41] wifi is a must [05:41] cannot even handle hidden ssids [05:41] Seveas: i duno, i don't even notice it. it doesn't drop or do anything funny. [05:41] Tsingi, atherors/prism/intel/ndiswrapper (so all cards) work fine === tiggggr [tggr@ihku.org] has joined #ubuntu [05:41] and it's worth noting, that under linux using windows drivers, it works better than in windows using windows drivers ;) [05:41] hi.. is there anyone free to help me installing my SmartUSB56 in ubuntu ? i've been trying for 2 days now :( [05:41] ok, I saw a comment about waiting for the next distro. I'll be developing an imaging app, prolly with gtk. [05:42] Tsingi, waiting for the next version is only if you use .net/c#/mono [05:42] no [05:42] c [05:42] otherwise: install hoary to try, it takes little time to install [05:42] hoary? === Slike [~Slike@232-181.246.81.adsl.skynet.be] has joined #ubuntu [05:42] "Hoary Hedgehog" [05:42] hoary = Ubuntu 5.04 "The Hoary Hedgehog" release [05:43] caonex: No, why?

[05:44] novaflare: posix threads [05:44] Tsingi, thinkpads will work, tsee wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTesting for more info [05:44] novaflare: a threading library [05:44] k [05:44] ok. [05:44] Ubuntu Docs - :) [05:45] novaflare: threads let your app run multiple bits of code at once, kinda advanced. stay away from them if you can. [05:46] Tsingi, since the invention of NPTL threading is OK to use :) [05:46] using windows in linux... explain? with vmware? [05:46] wine? [05:46] colinux? [05:46] but there are too many apps that use threads where they shouldn't [05:46] Seveas: yeah, I use them but you have to change the way you write your code, so not for the uninitiated. === WhiteRabbit [~3am@whiterabbit.user] has joined #ubuntu === InitMass [~InitMass@c83-248-181-226.bredband.comhem.se] has joined #ubuntu [05:47] :) === spektr_ [~spektr@M823P004.adsl.highway.telekom.at] has joined #ubuntu [05:47] mutex/futex/semaphore fun [05:47] Jormundgand, just wondering what version of kernel you have?

[05:48] caonex: 2.6.10-5-386 [05:48] atp-get, a la debian? [05:48] Tsingi, yes [05:48] Jormundgand, ok. [05:48] ok, every kernel i try to install ends up kernel panicing and not being able to mount root [05:48] oh, I'm familiar with debian too, just never on a laptop === pizzux [~demo@dyn-83-157-130-155.ppp.tiscali.fr] has joined #ubuntu [05:48] there is an ncurses frontend (aptitude) and a gtk2 frontend (synaptic) too [05:49] hi === HiddenWolf [~hidden@136.26.dynamic.phpg.net] has joined #ubuntu [05:49] Jormundgand, i am wondering if the recent kernel acts in a different way about it.

[05:50] Tsingi: Fedora takes around 10 hours for all four CDs and the rescue CD if you use the torrent.

[06:07] Tsingi, That's where I learned that .bashrc is sourced but not .bash_profile. If you look at .bash_profile in /etc/skel you'll see that .bashrc is sourced inside of that, so shouldn't .bash_profile be sourced in /etc/profile instead of .bashrc?

[06:09] Echelon-H, there appears to be a linux server, not a client [06:10] maybe a windows client combined with wine will help you [06:10] rickard: unless you set it otherwise, that's generally the case.. otherwise things like apache's mod_userdir wouldn't work [06:10] rickard, if you like it that way.. btw, im assuming 'accounts' should be 'home directories' [06:11] rickard: I like it that way. You users can unset the group permission if they want. I find it generally more convenient. [06:11] so if I dont want a useser home directory to be visible to other users I need to chmod that directory? === Hidenowt [~Ubuntu@201008200160.user.veloxzone.com.br] has joined #ubuntu === acduque [~acduque@63.Red-83-40-141.pooles.rima-tde.net] has joined #ubuntu [06:12] wdh, I know that [06:12] Can anyone point me to a good guide on getting hardware up and running for a total noob?

If you don't want it you have two options, either nset the group permissions on the home directories or give each user his own group that is the same name as the user name. === vinoo [~vinoo@59.92.36.185] has joined #ubuntu [06:13] rickard yes [06:13] fsck.ext3: No such file or directory while trying to open /dev/sda1 [06:13] The superblock could not be read or does not describe a correct ext2 [06:13] filesystem.
