| mrchicago | shrus | 12:01 |
| Shiggity | delire, unfortunatly for us, there's not really an alternative for Cedega other than windows. | 12:01 |
| dennis__ | Like it's hardware support isn't nearly as good as linux's | 12:01 |
| mrchicago | shrugs | 12:01 |
| delire | adam: yes, Cedega is a product that wraps windows games to be playable on Linux systems. | 12:01 |

| Chislon | IcemanV9, ok... thanks | 12:01 |
| IcemanV9 | Chislon: ports (fbsd) == apt-get (ubuntu) | 12:01 |

| crimsun | pedlar: are you sure it exists in the debian-marillat mirror for amd64? | 12:25 |
| spanglesontoast | do you have to restart to compile it? | 12:25 |
| delire | spanglesontoast: ok great. now you'll have to write this down and do it from outside X | 12:25 |
| toxicfume | crimsun: it does, but it says ESSID is off/any | 12:26 |
| pedlar | no, i'm not | 12:26 |

| disasm | ompaul: sorry, thought i was on a different window, and realized it too late... | 12:26 |
| pedlar | is there any way i could build it myself? | 12:26 |
| toxicfume | crimsun: even if i set the ESSID, it doesn't work | 12:26 |
| crimsun | toxicfume: and you're sure you're within range of an open wap? | 12:26 |
| delire | spanglesontoast: follow what i wrote above. that's the long command but will work. that compiles and installs the driver. | 12:26 |

| pusling | limer: you might be able to install from marillat archive, but be carefull | 12:41 |
| spanglesontoast | didn't work | 12:41 |
| spanglesontoast | got errors | 12:41 |
| psychonate | Is *anyone* having problems with xorg along the lines of xorg running very slow after running fine for a while? | 12:41 |
| pusling | shinu: try forceunmount joliet, iso-6699 or whatever it is called | 12:42 |
| kent | pedlar, it doesn't show at all, or it shows the wrong version? | 12:42 |
| limer | pusling: not sure what that is. I will look around for deb binaries me thinks | 12:42 |
| delire | spanglesontoast what errors? | 12:42 |
| pedlar | kent, no show | 12:42 |
| psychonate | as in, a few days of good performance, and then very slow performance until a restart of the server | 12:42 |
| IIIEars | pusling - did you need libdvdcss? | 12:42 |
| pusling | limer: ftp.nerim.net/debian-marillat i think | 12:42 |
| spanglesontoast | kernel includes at /usr/src/linux/include not found or incomplete | 12:42 |
| spanglesontoast | file: /usr/src/linux/include/linux/version.h | 12:42 |
| kent | pedlar, have you ran "sudo apt-get update" (or updated the list in synaptic) ? | 12:42 |
| delire | spanglesontoast you need the kernel source | 12:42 |
| toxicfume | crimsun: i already got modules-assistant, but i still don't know how to install the .deb file :/ I tried double clicking onit but it only asked me to extract | 12:42 |
| pedlar | i think so | 12:42 |
| delire | spanglesontoast in that case.. | 12:42 |

| delire | spanglesontoast compilation of anything is always involved in any platform | 12:46 |
| pusling | IIIEars: it might be dangerous, because it sometimes is diffeent versions of mplayer than in multiverse (and other package-depends) | 12:46 |

| crimsun | psychonate: with what issue? | 12:48 |
| spanglesontoast | weird world eh benplaut | 12:48 |
| psychonate | crimsun, I think it might be a memory leak issue with X. | 12:48 |
| psychonate | At least one person in #linuxhelp tried to help me. | 12:49 |
| spanglesontoast | theres two source packages | 12:49 |
| delire | ompaul hmm, yes i think that is closer to experience | 12:49 |
| apollo2011 | I have (K)ubuntu system with both KDE and Gnome installed. I use KDE by default. However, I just noticed that the Switch User option is suddenly missing from my K Menu. | 12:49 |
| pusling | shinu: perhaps you should also unload modules depending on <module_you_try_to_remove> | 12:49 |
| shinu | uh... | 12:49 |
| shinu | alright... | 12:49 |
| shinu | ill try that | 12:49 |
| psychonate | crimsun, I pasted a link to a bugzilla entry that may be similar | 12:49 |
| delire | psychonate no, i haven't had this experience | 12:49 |
| shinu | pusling: but if i reload them later my cdrom will be working fine again right? | 12:49 |
| pusling | shinu: yes. and after unloading them, you might be able to kill mount | 12:50 |
| shinu | yup | 12:50 |
| ompaul | delire, defines I kind of know X | 12:50 |
| shinu | ok ill try that | 12:50 |

| psychonate | I don't personally know what "normal" should look like. | 12:51 |
| ompaul | delire, now there is a truism | 12:51 |
| crimsun | psychonate: I'm much more prone to believe that an application or a set of applications are simply not releasing memory properly back to the X server | 12:51 |
| === ompaul goes in search of the strange bits and bytes | ||
| delire | ompaul ouch. let's hope you're not running a journaled fs ;) | 12:52 |
| ompaul | delire, like I would not do that ... | 12:52 |
| psychonate | crimsun, I don't doubt the possibility., and your guess is probably better than mine, but if I close all the apps running in X, it looks like the problem still stands until I restart the X server. I don't know if that helps you at all. | 12:53 |
| delire | ompaul hehe. recovery with reiserfs and ext2 is reasonably easy compared to that of ext3 | 12:53 |

| ompaul | delire: time for `sudo su - ` | 12:53 |
| delire | ompaul hmm | 12:53 |
| delire | psychonate have you tried seeing what happens if you start X and then leave it with no applications running at all? | 12:54 |
| crimsun | psychonate: in fact, that really points to certain applications, since if the fault lay with the X server, restarting the X server _still_ wouldn't reclaim that memory | 12:54 |

| delire | pedlar amd64 is not as well supported as some other platforms just yet. | 01:03 |

| Chislon | delire, ok thank you, when deciding on a linux distro... what all goes into a decision... like they basically just package different applications to start with, adn have the differnet package management, and different communities, is that it? but you can wiht any distro get any application that any other distro has, is this correct? and how many kinds of package management are there, and where is a good place that might let me rea | 01:12 |
| Chislon | d the differences in a way i might understand atleast some? | 01:12 |
| crimsun | toxicfume: you must | 01:12 |
| toxicfume | I really don't :S | 01:12 |
| crimsun | toxicfume: /usr/share/doc/ipw2200-source/ | 01:12 |

| kurt__ | I'm trying to set up kernel 2.6.11 with the latest fglrx drivers with alien... but it keeps going to mesa... by any chance would any of you know why? | 01:13 |
| toxicfume | crimsun: oh! | 01:13 |
| toxicfume | one second | 01:13 |
| delire | Chislon: you've pretty much nailed it. | 01:13 |
| mattlacey | johnnyfav: you can use a knoppix cd too... run grub and then 2 lines: root(hd0,0)... setup(hd0) (i think)... with the correct partitions etc... | 01:13 |
| disasm | kurt__: whats in your xorg.conf? | 01:13 |
| Chislon | delire, ok thank you, do you know a good place to read those differences for the package management? | 01:13 |
| nalioth | Chislon: distrowatch.org? maybe | 01:13 |
| kurt__ | disasm: it's pretty much default | 01:13 |
| disasm | kurt__: and why are you using alien? | 01:13 |
| Chislon | nalioth, ok thank you | 01:13 |
| delire | Chislon: there are only a small number (comparitively speaking) of applications which are not available across all distributions. | 01:14 |
| kurt__ | because the fglrx driver doesn't work for 2.6.11 afaik? | 01:14 |
| dpod | delire: the problem I'm having is that I need to run wpa_supplicant and then reset my wlan0 after boot up; the result is that the network interface formatting on boot is just wasting time (especially the clock setting since that needs to happen after wpa_supplicant and resetting the wlan0 is done). I figured if I could move them out the startup and build a quick sh script, I'd be ahead of the game. Ideas or suggestions? | 01:14 |
| toxicfume | crimsun: ah yes i see it now | 01:14 |
| mattlacey | johnnyfav: it'll use your /etc/grub.conf from wherever you set the root | 01:14 |
| Chislon | i heard that ubuntu is new, but its like relativly new in temrs of the other distros i take it? because i also thought i heard its been around more than a year | 01:14 |
| nalioth | kurt is ready for an adventure | 01:14 |
| kurt__ | indeed. | 01:14 |
| Chislon | delire, and then is there an equivalent application available for the distro that the specific app might not work for? | 01:14 |
| toxicfume | crimsun: the documentation is saying to install the prerequisite packages: build essential kernel-headers-$version, where can i get that file from? | 01:14 |
| disasm | kurt__: ah, i'm using a 2.6.10 so that might be true | 01:15 |
| delire | Chislon: the differences really are between package managers, not pacakge types per se. emerge == gentoo, apt == debian (and derivatives like ubuntu), rpm == redhat (and derivatives like Mandrake) | 01:15 |
| crimsun | toxicfume: you already have those | 01:15 |
| nalioth | Chislon: ubuntu is very user friendly & very user supported | 01:15 |
| crimsun | toxicfume: (Ubuntu uses linux-headers, not kernel-headers) | 01:15 |
| toxicfume | crimsun: ah okay | 01:15 |
| disasm | kurt__: if it's going to mesa, it's probly because your xorg.conf is saying ati for driver and not fglrx | 01:15 |

| crimsun | toxicfume: correct. Remember dependencies work top-down | 01:50 |

| GammaRay | _Church_of_Foamy: you might as well just use cp then | 02:03 |
| sinope[crashed] | thanks guys :) | 02:03 |
| _Church_of_Foamy | cp? | 02:03 |
| kbrooks | sinope[crashed] : inadvisble if /home has contents | 02:03 |
| LinuxJones | sinope[crashed] , have you tried the Hoary Live CD ? | 02:03 |
| toxicfume | crimsun: and /lib/modules/2.6.10-5-386/drivers/net/wireless/ipw2200.ko | 02:03 |

| kbrooks | sinope[crashed] : no | 02:04 |
| GammaRay | _Church_of_Foamy: simple enought: cp -a / /mnt/new_hdd | 02:04 |

| CiRkiT | does ubuntu prohibit you from editing certain files? lol | 02:08 |

| sinope[crashed] | i understand ubuntu is basically a streamlined debian | 02:11 |
| sinope[crashed] | but is it limited from debian? | 02:11 |
| LinuxJones | CiRkiT, open gnome-terminal and type sudo -s (enter your user password) and you should have a root terminal...be carefull of what you do in there it can take your system down very easily :) | 02:11 |
| kbrooks | Dvondrake: BACKUP YOUR DATA | 02:11 |
| Dvondrake | haha, yeah | 02:11 |
| kbrooks | sinope[crashed] : no | 02:11 |
| sinope[crashed] | i mean, is there anything i can do easily in debian that i can't do easily in ubuntu? | 02:11 |
| kbrooks | sinope[crashed] : no. | 02:11 |
| ggeecko | does anyone here syncs with the treo 650 | 02:11 |
| Dvondrake | so ubuntu is totally safe, and even a newb can install it with no problems, right? | 02:11 |

| LinuxJones | e0f, do sudo network-admin in a terminal . Check to see if your network card is listed as a device. | 03:12 |
| JoshYme1 | I just got ubuntu up and running and it never asked for a root password - what does it default to?? | 03:12 |
| LinuxJones | JoshYme1, Ubuntu uses sudo | 03:12 |
| === vpalle [~vpalle@park222.koll.au.dk] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| JoshYme1 | sudo?? | 03:12 |
| Pop_pa_FrEaK | JoshYme1, its the password you put in as a user | 03:12 |
| stevo_incoH | JoshYme1: you can run sudo passwd root to change that pw. | 03:13 |
| KragenSitaker | JoshYme1: you don't normally use root's password in ubuntu | 03:13 |
| KragenSitaker | JoshYme1: instead you have some users who have the authority to sudo things as root | 03:13 |
| JoshYme1 | ok gotcha | 03:13 |
| KragenSitaker | so you can say "sudo ls" or "sudo apt-get install something" | 03:13 |

| Curlydave | forced, how would i do that? | 04:18 |

| Noggin | NTFS access for linux is still in its infancy right? | 04:28 |
| DAC1138 | Noggin, i do currently, but repartitioning/formatting my drive ill convert it to fat32 | 04:28 |
| forced | Noggin, NTFS writing isn't "mature", but it's always worked for me without a hitch. | 04:28 |
| Noggin | aight | 04:28 |
| tsume | heh | 04:28 |
| forced | Maybe I'm lucky. :/ | 04:28 |
| tsume | you probably have no idea what the restrictions on NTFS for linux are | 04:29 |
| dpod | I'm trying to replace one of the original bootup files; I can delete the original (/etc/rcS.d/S40networking -- halves the bootup time), but I can't get my own shell script to replace it properly: it looks for a sudo permission, I think | 04:29 |
| malik | i just configured twinview. works fine. but now i want "independent workspaces" ie. switch one workspace on one screen and leave the other alone | 04:29 |
| malik | is this possible? how? | 04:29 |
| DAC1138 | i'd like to use windows in vmware, but i dont know how video editing is with premiere and after effects in vmware | 04:29 |

| DAC1138 | ubuntu has the live feature :) | 04:33 |
| dougsk | DAC1138, well without having to partition there is slackware with umsdos, or colinux or cygwin. Ubuntu doesn't fit the bill -- oh though the livecd would be good | 04:34 |

| DAC1138 | in a box somewhere | 04:35 |
| iceman | dougsk will tried to install, cant get it to work ... weird ... lack some nt dll's .. i want it on a 98 install | 04:36 |
| DAC1138 | got this new gateway laptop instead. works like a charm | 04:36 |
| dougsk | iceman, tried to get what to install? | 04:36 |
| mrchicago | heh | 04:36 |
| DAC1138 | dougsk, umsdos i think is also what peanut linux was using as a main partition type | 04:36 |
| dougsk | DAC1138, yes peanut is/was based off of slackware circur 9.x | 04:37 |
| iceman | colinux | 04:37 |
| DAC1138 | dougsk, peanut was one of my first distros. it was very hard to setup, mainly because of umsdos and i had to download an extra file from the internet that was 80MB (this was on dialup) | 04:37 |
| dougsk | DAC1138, if you chose to partition with peanut it used reiser3 | 04:37 |
| DAC1138 | dougsk, i got a weird copy of peanut. the instructions told me to get an 85 bzImage file, copy that to a DOS formatted partition, and install it like that. it would use the DOS partition as its main filesystem | 04:38 |
| dougsk | DAC1138, I was a huge peanut fan jp does great work and bolting rpm ontop was pretty cool. | 04:38 |
| mrchicago | stupid ds; | 04:38 |

| DAC1138 | your keyboard too | 04:38 |
| dougsk | iceman, Om not sure I follow | 04:39 |

| iceman | Want to build a install, preserving windows 98, in windows filesystem. like zipslack but wit hX and KDE | 04:39 |
| DAC1138 | Noggin, it should boot windows normally | 04:40 |
| ^thehatsrule^ | Noggin, that would depend on what OS | 04:40 |
| dpod | Boohoo does nobody have experience changing the files ubuntu uses to bootup ? | 04:40 |
| DAC1138 | Noggin, it will wipe any linx boot record you have installed | 04:40 |
| Noggin | oh yeah, forgot to say Ubuntu is the only OS on the pc | 04:40 |
| dougsk | Noggin, of you have a primary fat/ntfs partition marked active then it will jsut boot that partition | 04:40 |
| DAC1138 | Noggin, then you wont be able to boot ubuntu | 04:40 |

| DAC1138 | Noggin, boot the ubuntu live cd (if you have one) and reinstall the bootloader | 04:44 |

| Noggin | Don't have live cd. I do have the basic install ISO though, and both the Grub and Lilo install steps fail. First time I select to install Grub it wants to partition the drives. If I cancel and select the same step it says that Ubuntu is the only OS on the drive and asks if I want to install Grub. I say yes, and it goes to a red screen and fails | 04:45 |
| dpod | Noggin: oh dear. That I don't know the answer to. I did a dual boot. Why are you worrying about Linux the night before a trip? Wouldn't you be better of with what you've already got working? Integration with other peoples' hardware ain't any easier (to say the least) with linux | 04:47 |

| dpod | Chislon: I mostly do text and xml, which is why I'm going to Linux. Almost everything one needs in a regular office... even a fairly high tech one seems relatively well supported. The biggest question is really where you think you are mostly going to work on a day-to-day basis. I have some friends who work in windows and use linux, and some who are the other way round.

| tsume | !xine | 05:06 |
| ubotu | I haven't a clue, tsume | 05:06 |
| tsume | Chislon: python is not a good language for game creation. You want to use C++ for game creation | 05:06 |
| Chislon | forced, ok i dont know how all the engines and stuff work though, so they use other engines tho | 05:06 |
| forced | Alot of the free tool kits are just crap that relies on OpenGL for rendering. | 05:06 |
| Chislon | tsume, but python is good for a starting language i hear | 05:06 |
| tsume | Chislon: for numerical analysis and computing power, you need to learn how to use the STL in C++ | 05:06 |
| regeya_ | guh. | 05:06 |
| iceman | anyone know how to pack a iso to a harddrive | 05:06 |
| tsume | Chislon: use Python to make plugins for the game | 05:06 |
| iceman | unpack | 05:06 |
| regeya_ | if you do everything as interpreted python, then yeah, your game is a-gonna be slow | 05:07 |
| dpod | Chislon: I wouldn't let html needs shape my os decision. there are only something like thirty codes to know, and there's lots of free and commercial coding editors for both systems. I use emacs mostly, though I'm not sure that's an entry-level html coder. I think Oxygen does well in both XP and Linux | 05:07 |
| Quest-Master | http://www.ogre3d.org/gallery/albums/album01/quake3.sized.jpg <-- Ogre3D is pretty damn good. | 05:07 |
| tsume | Chislon: actually lua is a better language for plugin creation for games | 05:07 |
| forced | C++ knowledge is almost required if you want to make a game in a team environment. Heh. | 05:07 |
| Quest-Master | tsume: Python rocks for game creation. ;) | 05:07 |
| regeya_ | also if you do it with no eye for optimizing for the interpreter, then it will be slow | 05:07 |
| Chislon | tsume, some people say its not bad for games, i have no idea about it all, but python is used in the blender game engine i think... but most things i read dont suggest starting in C or C++ | 05:07 |
| forced | lua = so nice. | 05:07 |
| tsume | Quest-Master: get real buddy :) its slow at numerical computation | 05:07 |
| regeya_ | but if you're careful, and you're not doing anyhting cutting-edge it'll be ok | 05:07 |
| tsume | Chislon: whoever told you that, they are seriously wrong | 05:07 |
| Chislon | Quest-Master, thank you for the link | 05:07 |
| forced | C is a great starting place. So is C++. | 05:08 |
| regeya_ | yes, I suggest C++ for beginners. | 05:08 |
| tsume | C++ is a def | 05:08 |
| forced | Learn either and you'll be able to pick up most languages quickly. | 05:08 |
| Quest-Master | tsume, forced: Lua is easy to implement, but Python as a language owns it hard. Plus, Boost.Python allows easy implementation. | 05:08 |
| tsume | don't use C# or mono | 05:08 |
| bwlang | tsume: you're confused... python and C++ generate very similar machine code for numerical calculations... they differ everywhere else | 05:08 |
| regeya_ | but first cut your teeth on assembly ;-) | 05:08 |
| Chislon | dpod, well i fugre that linux should be just as good for doing webpages shouldnt it? that is something i need to figure out though, that and 2d art/animation progs | 05:08 |
| tsume | Quest-Master: oh god you are such a noob | 05:08 |
| Quest-Master | tsume: Slow numerical computation? Try Psyco and Pyrex. | 05:08 |
| tsume | Quest-Master: its all about overhead and speed | 05:08 |
| tsume | Quest-Master: no. | 05:08 |
| tsume | bwlang: you must not be experienced | 05:09 |
| Chislon | tsume, i dont know what lua is, really? everything i read pretty much says that its not a good place to start and too hard and technical, and that python is better for starting | 05:09 |
| forced | Extra overhead = kills when you need all the performance you can get. | 05:09 |
| tsume | bwlang: the overhead of python is not light as lua | 05:09 |

| dpod | Chislon: Yeah I'd guess so. Certainly all the standards guys use it (which is why I'm going that way): I'm in academia, and we're purists. Given the other things you're talking about, you should learn everything you need to know about text and 2-d in an afternoon. | 05:09 |
| tsume | Quest-Master: you're ignored for being ignorant and talking out of your ass | 05:10 |
| bwlang | tsume: i don't want to get into it with you.. tight loops are similar in all languages... why are you talking about memory usage - this is irrelevant to numerical calculation | 05:10 |
| JDahl | Quest-Master, you sort of pushed my buttons there... numerical computations in python (or any interpreted language) can be very fast if they done right and only a few critical parts are written as C extension modules | 05:10 |
| tsume | Chislon: I can give you emails to people who actually create games | 05:10 |
| tsume | Chislon: they use 1) C++, and 2) lua | 05:10 |
| Quest-Master | Simply put, Python is good for game creation in general unless it's memory intensive, and even for operations of those kind, they can be written as external C modules for the extra speed needed. | 05:10 |
| regeya_ | <Quest-Master> Mine is bigger <tsume> I IGNORE YOU | 05:11 |
| Quest-Master | JDahl: Exactly. :) | 05:11 |
| Quest-Master | regeya_: Hehe. | 05:11 |

| disasm | dennis__: bluefish | 05:23 |
| Arrogant | You know, no matter what language you use, OpenGL still sucks ;_; | 05:23 |
| disasm | regeya_: yeah, that's even better ;-) | 05:23 |
| dpod | dennis__: emacs | 05:23 |
| Quest-Master | ScITE. | 05:23 |
| dennis__ | I need a good webeditor....that will organize my code nicely :D | 05:23 |
| === regeya_ has used emacs for html | ||
| Arrogant | dennis__: SciTE | 05:23 |
| Quest-Master | dennis__: Overwhelmed by the responses, aren't you? :P | 05:23 |
| dennis__ | No Gui | 05:23 |
| Arrogant | Oh. | 05:23 |
| Chislon | with python would i be able to make games equivalent to flash games? | 05:23 |
| Quest-Master | dennis__: Use ScITE then. | 05:23 |
| kman_ | shanon: also acroread doesn't work as well. | 05:23 |
| dennis__ | Okay. | 05:23 |
| Quest-Master | Chislon: Yes. | 05:23 |
| mikere | Arrogant: I think it's only advantage is being better than the alternatives | 05:23 |
| Chislon | tho perhaps i should take that to the python room rather then here | 05:23 |
| tsume | Chislon: you are welcomed to use whatever you want. You will later find out you should have used C++ to begin with. I learned C++ first, but though "Hey, lets use ruby to make a simple 3d model of a modifyable dna chain", like python, java, and other languages.. it will be slow, and you'll later use C++ | 05:24 |
| Arrogant | mikere: As so often is the case | 05:24 |
| disasm | dennis__: if you dont want a gui, go with vi, it will auto-indent your lines and has syntax highlighting | 05:24 |
| synd | bwlang: should i get xvncserver or just vncserver in the apt? | 05:24 |
| dennis__ | Alright... | 05:24 |
| tsume | Chislon: C++ is very portable, and if you are using opengl, its portable to all platforms. | 05:24 |
| Chislon | Quest-Master, ok thank you (ones better than flash?) | 05:24 |
| disasm | dennis__: if you want my .vimrc, just let me know | 05:24 |
| Arrogant | Flash is not for games | 05:24 |
| dennis__ | Okay | 05:24 |
| Arrogant | Flash is for llama songs | 05:24 |
| Quest-Master | Chislon: With PyOpenGL, you sure will :) | 05:24 |
| Arrogant | And schfifty five | 05:24 |
| tsume | oh god.. its Arrogant | 05:24 |
| dennis__ | Does anyone know of a good free flash option for linux? | 05:24 |
| dennis__ | Is there even one?? | 05:24 |
| Arrogant | oh god its tsume | 05:24 |
| tsume | dennis__: gnu flash? | 05:25 |
| disasm | yeah, there is a gpl flash | 05:25 |
| Noggin | good news is that the DC connector on the laptop is broken and a soldering iron will fix it, and ironicly I wouldn't have discovered that if my cd drive wasn't broken | 05:25 |
| regeya_ | tsume: C++ is great. That's what they started students on at the Uni I attended. When I figured out that C++ was going to be the standard and that it was a big cluster-you-know-what, I changed majors. | 05:25 |
| tsume | oops. gplflash :) | 05:25 |
| dennis__ | Okay | 05:25 |
| dennis__ | :D | 05:25 |
| Chislon | tsume, thank you for your advice, and i may find that out later, but if i do i dont think ill stress over it too much, i think that i will find learning python to be easier and more enjoyable adn less likely for me to just give up on | 05:25 |
| firewire | ming | 05:25 |
| dennis__ | Now,, here comes the hard part. | 05:25 |
| regeya_ | C++ started out so great | 05:25 |

| joe|code | gplflash woohoo | 05:25 |
| dpod | denis: I thought I apt-gotted something the other day from Ubuntu. | 05:25 |
| tsume | Chislon: you are doing exactly what I did :) | 05:25 |
| Chislon | Quest-Master, ok, so flash cant do anything game wise that python cant? | 05:25 |
| Chislon | tsume, how do you mean | 05:25 |

| Quest-Master | Chislon: Besides running on a web browser, no. | 05:25 |
| Arrogant | Chislon: Of course not, Python is a language | 05:25 |
| bwlang | synd: i only see tightvncserver and vncserver... - doesn't really matter which you choose - tight is a bit better for slow connections | 05:25 |
| tsume | Chislon: nevermind. Just go ahead :) | 05:25 |
| Arrogant | With C extensions | 05:25 |
| dennis__ | Does anyone know why I can here system sounds and not mp3s that are playing.... | 05:25 |
| zenlunatic | Does Hoary use x.org or xfree? | 05:25 |
| Arrogant | It can do anything | 05:25 |

| Arrogant | Flash can't do a lot of things :) | 05:26 |
| Chislon | lol i mean for the game engine | 05:26 |
| Quest-Master | zenlunatic: XOrg | 05:26 |
| bwlang | zenlunatic: x.org | 05:26 |
| Chislon | like the game part of flash | 05:26 |
| Arrogant | You can make much better games in Python | 05:26 |
| synd | bwlang: my bad, i thought it said xvncserver .. | 05:26 |
| dpod | Noggin: it sounds like fawlty towers at your place. don't mention the war. | 05:26 |
| Chislon | thats what i meant | 05:26 |
| Arrogant | Just doesn't happen very often | 05:26 |
| Chislon | i mayh ahve said it wrong | 05:26 |
| psychonate|away | crimsun: you around | 05:26 |
| JDahl | tsume, if you refuse to use any sort of interpreted language for development and write all your code directly in C++, then I think you're either programming very simple things, or have too much time on your hands | 05:26 |
| shanon | kman_: I think I see what is wrong. The extra repositories part has been updated very recently. I assume you are using the one specified in there? | 05:26 |
| Chislon | python can do everything game wise that flash can do and more/better correct? | 05:26 |
| tsume | Chislon: I've been using C++ to create a true fast engine. With the help of some fortran. Its not for a game, but for education and interactive response situations. If I used another language like java, it would have died before it began | 05:26 |
| Noggin | I'll pretend I know what you're talking about dpod :) | 05:26 |
| Chislon | is it harder in python then in flash? | 05:26 |
| Noggin | g'night everyone, and don't put your PC's on ice | 05:26 |
| tsume | JDahl: I use lua with it, because its very light | 05:26 |
| disasm | synd: vncserver or tightvncserver depending on what version vnc you have | 05:26 |
| Quest-Master | tsume: Perhaps with Java, but not Python | 05:27 |
| dennis__ | Does anyone know why I can here system sounds and not mp3s that are playing.... | 05:27 |
| Quest-Master | Chislon: Yep. | 05:27 |
| bwlang | dennis__: system sounds like beeps don't depend on your sound driver... if you're - it could be that your mp3 player is not using esd for its output | 05:27 |
| Arrogant | tsume: That might be because Java is terrible | 05:27 |
| kman_ | shanon, yes, I am using the one listed | 05:27 |
| Chislon | tsume, oh, that sounds like a kool project, tho im not sure what interactive response situtations are | 05:27 |
| mikere | JDahl: a good programmer can be productive in any environment. Friend of mine codes almost exclusively in ASM - but his custom libraries make him very productive | 05:27 |
| === regeya_ goes back to his ruby hackery and pretends to be doing something cool, when in fact it's just mundane text processing | ||
| tsume | Quest-Master: you really think you are a know-it-all. don't you? you haven't check the vmSize of what java uses, and compared to python. | 05:27 |
| synd | bwlang: ok i set up a password and it gave me "New 'X' desktop is ubuntu:1" | 05:27 |
| kman_ | shanon: do you have the info on the new one? | 05:27 |
| dennis__ | bwlang, by system sounds I mean't like the sound gnome makes when I eject a cdrom | 05:27 |
| shanon | kman_: It used to specify a debian testing one which is the one I used to install java. However that one had problems so they have removed it. They have obviously not tested the java packages after they changed it | 05:27 |
| bwlang | synd: good - now just run the viewer from the other machine... | 05:27 |
| Chislon | so its harder in python, but with that larger degree of difficulty does that also bring with it em, "betterness" ? | 05:27 |
| tsume | Chislon: :) like a 3d world where meetings can be brought to the employees ;) | 05:27 |
| iceman | anyone know what this is FTGUIX compliance | 05:28 |
| Chislon | tsume, sounds kool | 05:28 |
| disasm | synd: now xtightvncviewer <ip_of_desktop> | 05:28 |
| tsume | Chislon: C++ is easy... | 05:28 |
| Quest-Master | tsume: Oh yeah, by stating the facts, I MUST be implying that I'm a know-it-all! | 05:28 |
| Arrogant | lol#python | 05:28 |
| synd | bwlang: i did, but it wants me to type in the vnc server | 05:28 |
| bwlang | dennis__: sounds like the second problem... check the output of your mp3 player | 05:28 |

| tsume | Quest-Master: *plonk* | 05:28 |

| tsume | Chislon: with books, its easy | 05:28 |
| bwlang | dennis__: sorry dude... i don't even know what your mp3 player is... i can recommend rhythmbox | 05:28 |
| shanon | kman_: I removed it from my repositories as it was causing problems for other packages. I will have a look and see if I have it somewhere | 05:29 |
| tsume | Chislon: I learned from Bjarne and later.. the C++ standard | 05:29 |
| Quest-Master | tsume: I'd suggest you stop with the flaming, please. We don't want to turn #ubuntu into another #debian | 05:29 |
| bwlang | synd: unlikely... unless you have set up dns to make ubuntu resolve to 192.168.7.33 or whatever your ip address is | 05:29 |

| jayson_I | can i run macromedia dreamweaver in ubuntu? | 05:29 |

| Chislon | tsume, what is Bjarne | 05:30 |
| regeya_ | tsume: you next. | 05:30 |
| tsume | Chislon: Bjarne.. God :) | 05:30 |
| fidget | is there any real advantage to using a ibook instead of a pc laptop ...? | 05:30 |
| jayson_I | Quest-Master: like wine? | 05:30 |
| Quest-Master | jayson_I: Yep. | 05:30 |
| Quest-Master | fidget: Not really I guess. More support for PC laptops than iBook though in general. | 05:31 |
| tsume | regeya_: well.. my responses are a bit hasty answering to you :) or I would have thought them out to explain each negative response to C++ | 05:31 |

| nalioth | synd: ssh works on all major platforms | 05:48 |
| bwlang | dennis__: it's case sensitive... the 14082 process is the grep process that is looking for XMMS | 05:48 |

| dooglus | dennis__: vector program | 05:49 |
| === sproingie feels like an idiot every time he touches routing | ||
| nalioth | makotokun: what EXACTLY are you trying to do? | 05:49 |
| dennis__ | Isn't that what it is called? | 05:49 |
| dennis__ | XMMS? | 05:49 |
| dougsk | sproingie, depends on what the needs are. I'd look at either of the two I mentioned first though | 05:49 |
| bwlang | dooglus: i think sodipodi died... and became inkscape... | 05:49 |
| synd | nalioth: how about just on my LAN from OSX? | 05:49 |
| bwlang | dennis__: i think its xmms... if you do ps aux you can see all the process that are running | 05:49 |
| dooglus | bwlang: really? | 05:49 |
| nalioth | synd: same way | 05:50 |
| bwlang | dooglus: well - i'm not 100% sure... i think so | 05:50 |
| makotokun | well I want to be able to see an icon for my drives and be able to look at my files. | 05:50 |

| dennis__ | Okay I killed it :D | 05:50 |
| dennis__ | Yay | 05:50 |
| makotokun | One of them I had to format of course to install ubuntu. the other has all my files and is a slave drive | 05:50 |
| synd | nalioth: what im asking is that is there a vnc viewer for os x | 05:50 |
| dooglus | bwlang: sodipodi just used 3Mb when I installed it, inkspace wants to use 21Mb | 05:50 |
| synd | nalioth: rather, what is it? | 05:50 |
| nalioth | synd: yes versiontracker.com and pick your fav | 05:51 |
| dougsk | sproingie, if your on a gnome only system look at firestarter, if you have kdelibs you might checkout guarddog | 05:51 |
| dennis__ | Now to get the sound to work :( | 05:51 |
| nalioth | synd: or you can have fink install you one | 05:51 |
| synd | this is exciting | 05:51 |
| dooglus | here's a comparing of inkscape and sodipodi, with some history: http://www.inkscape.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?SodiPodi | 05:52 |
| dougsk | sproingie, if your looking for more complex tools then fwbuilder, shorewall, or straight iptables will certianly handle the task | 05:52 |
| iceman | wow 2 hours to download 8 cd images | 05:52 |
| bwlang | dooglus: just did some reading... looks like inkscape is a fork. | 05:52 |

| FR500 | dennis__, open it and open some files | 06:23 |
| demonic | I try alsaconf but that dont work | 06:23 |
| bwlang | dennis__: well - that was easy... - just run rhythmbox... it should use the output stream you just specified | 06:23 |
| bwlang | FR500: not sure... maybe hotplug? | 06:24 |
| crimsun | demonic: that's because there is no alsaconf in Ubuntu. | 06:24 |
| FR500 | oh | 06:24 |
| dennis__ | bwlang...it wont play it :( | 06:24 |
| crimsun | demonic: use the up and down arrows in alsamixer (different program from amixer) | 06:24 |

| tandy | Chislon: i beleive there are tools on win xp cd to restore windows | 07:08 |
| hondje | leo_mx: type oo and hit tab twice in a terminal | 07:08 |

| ronybeck | Chislon, but before you erase linux from your hard drive, get windows booting on its own with its own boot loader. | 07:09 |
| vladuz | just wanna know if anyone has any experience with ubuntu on ppc | 07:09 |
| JDahl | Chislon, sorry - I was misunderstood you... I suggest you just reformat the partition you want removed and use it without repartitioning/resizing | 07:10 |
| ChkNpIMP | heh :0 | 07:10 |
| Chislon | is it possible after partitioning to return to only one partition if i decide i want only windows or ubuntu on it? | 07:10 |
| yahalom | vladuz, try #mac | 07:10 |
| ChkNpIMP | ronybeck: I was coming here to ask if there is a URL that outlines how to install ubuntu (if it's possible) on SATA raid partition with windows as the bootstrap | 07:10 |
| vladuz | cool, thanks | 07:10 |
| Chislon | er i may not have used the right word | 07:10 |
| yahalom | vladuz,might be ppl there who used/use ubuntu on pcc | 07:10 |
| Chislon | like i have my harddrive now which is just one drive, if i add a partition it becomes two, right, so after i do that can i make it one again? with no partition? | 07:11 |

| diego | Chislon: there's always going to be at least 1 partition if you want it to be usable | 07:11 |

| sevets | jasmuz: I mounted hdb the first time and then I mounted it in a /media folder like you said and now there are two mount points for /dev/hdb | 08:18 |
| sevets | perhaps it is 2 different partitions? | 08:18 |
| synd | my network is secure. but what about after the data has passed thru the firewall? | 08:18 |
| jasmuz | sevets: do this to only mount what you have in /etc/fstab, # sudo mount -a | 08:19 |
| jasmuz | sevets: and then mount the other disk to the mount point | 08:19 |
| Viking` | sevets, maybe you need to remove an extra entry from /etc/fstab? | 08:19 |

| bigfoot | bob2, I tried metzen 's suggestion (mplayer -fs foo.avi) but it is the same problem as i have with the GUImplayer. The program window _is_ fullscreen, yes, but the movie file itself is still the same size. Is this a bug with mplayer, or is it just me and my mplayer? How can this be resolved? | 09:48 |

| Hajuu | gaurav_: Yeah ive looked at that.. but when I try to apt-get it it says no such package is found | 10:38 |
| Fikrann | xf__: simple, it's not useful for 99% of users, and those who need it usually prefer using their own kernels tuned to the hardware. | 10:38 |

| Hajuu | any ideas on how to get my sound to be more functional? | 11:04 |
| Hajuu | It would seem that VLC has my sound device configured to be /dev/dsp.. is that right? | 11:04 |
| hondje | /dev/dsp is normal | 11:05 |
| Hajuu | the VLC config is kinda... not clear. | 11:05 |

| Hajuu | ..no | 11:05 |
| Hajuu | ? | 11:05 |
| Hajuu | why would it? | 11:05 |

| sugoruyo | hondje, can i get the files from kubuntu or ubuntu dvd? | 11:40 |
| hondje | sugoruyo: I'd imagine so, if you have the cd in your sources.list | 11:40 |
| bob2 | Fikrann: also the staging backports made systems unbootable | 11:40 |
| bob2 | punkass: how on earth did you get libc6 2.3.5 then? | 11:40 |
| sugoruyo | how do i do that | 11:40 |
| hondje | He really tries, though the quality isn't that great :-/ | 11:40 |
| sugoruyo | i mean ubuntu dvd | 11:40 |
| sugoruyo | is on the sources list | 11:41 |
| Fikrann | bob2: IMO backports are more broken than breezy is. | 11:41 |
| sugoruyo | but kubuntu of course is not | 11:41 |
| sugoruyo | can i add it? | 11:41 |
| bob2 | punkass: you used to use breezy or the backports? | 11:41 |
| punkass | no i didnt | 11:41 |

| lsuactiafner | hah cool | 01:49 |

| snowseal | then reformat in ext3 :s | 01:49 |
| teebones | snowseal, no it isn't.. every fs has its own characteristics.. and thus it must be supported by tools like explore2fs | 01:49 |

| HappyFool | scanwinder: if it's a winmodem you'll probably need to install a driver for it | 01:50 |
| lsuactiafner | ext3 is ext2 with a journal | 01:50 |
| lsuactiafner | you can mount an ext3 as a ext2 | 01:50 |

| lsuactiafner | scanwinder : winmodems are internal | 01:50 |
| scanwinder | and where would i go 2 find a driver? | 01:50 |
| lsuactiafner | scanwinder : depends on modem, lucent rocks | 01:50 |
| lsuactiafner | anything else i dont know. | 01:50 |
| HappyFool | scanwinder: type 'lspci' in a terminal (Applications -> System tools -> Terminal) to try to find out what modem you have | 01:50 |
| hondje | scanwinder: lspci -vvv and look for chipset on it :) | 01:50 |
| snowseal | teebones, only apps that read the partition on a low level will notice the fs-type..? | 01:51 |
| lsuactiafner | apps dont care | 01:51 |
| hondje | lucent is good, conextant has commercial drivers but top-notch support | 01:51 |
| lsuactiafner | the kernel does the fs type stuff | 01:51 |
| lsuactiafner | conextant=commercial drivers=unaffordable | 01:51 |
| ompaul | I saw something that really saddened me on Friday, plantronics offering a few free minutes of skype, and it saying that skype required that other thing that wants to be an operating system | 01:51 |
| scanwinder | is it easy or hard 2 install drivers in linux? (for me its always just automatically picked up everything) | 01:51 |
| lsuactiafner | if a driver costs $7+ i can buy a new modem for that price that works in linux | 01:51 |
| teebones | lsuactiafner, ehm.. true.. but.. we're talking on accessing the fs on windows... | 01:52 |
| HappyFool | scanwinder: it depends | 01:52 |

| teebones | ;) | 02:15 |
| hondje | yeah, leave hsync/vert alone | 02:15 |
| lsuactiafner | but before you edit xorg.conf, cp xorg.conf xorg.conf_backup | 02:15 |
| IIIEars | new_to_ubuntu - do you have any questions? | 02:15 |

| hondje | Why do you want 800x600? | 02:17 |
| lsuactiafner | if your DefaultDepth 24 | 02:17 |
| IIIEars | << - 6th week with Ubuntu and linux. - it isn't always easy. - grin | 02:17 |
| lsuactiafner | 800*600 on crappy 15" | 02:17 |
| fabio | lsuactiafner, oh yes 24 here | 02:17 |
| dooglus | teebones: that won't just change the default resolution, it will stop him using high resolution at all | 02:17 |
| hondje | If you just want bigger fonts and icons, there are easier ways | 02:17 |
| kbrooks | IIIEars: heh | 02:17 |
| fabio | teebones, oh great I understand, so I have to delete the one the comes first? | 02:17 |
| teebones | dooglus, right.. but he surely doesn't want the high one.. | 02:17 |
| anto9us | lower resolutions are good for some fullscreen apps, e.g. movies | 02:17 |
| kbrooks | IIIEars: i've been on linux for a year. | 02:17 |
| hondje | Though if you're like me, low refresh rate makes life suck :( | 02:17 |
| lsuactiafner | fabio : then in x press crl alt backspace, should restart x | 02:17 |

| teebones | hallo dutch | 02:18 |
| teebones | ;) | 02:18 |
| fabio | lsuactiafner, oh yes explain how to do that, cos I restart X but how do I start it again? | 02:18 |
| dutch | but, only 2 years now | 02:18 |
| hondje | well, some windows, about 20 minutes a month...can't avoid that. OS X too, some commericial unix... | 02:18 |
| dutch | hello teebones :) | 02:18 |
| teebones | alles goed daarzo? | 02:18 |
| kbrooks | hondje: well, shit like what? | 02:18 |
| hondje | dutch: Good, I'm not alone in my lameness :D | 02:18 |

| IIIEars | Just so tired and angry at windows. - swore non stop the first day. my wife thought i was possesed. - thats okay she likes a devil ;) | 02:19 |
| lsuactiafner | fabio : in ubuntu its almost impossible to kill x off unless you kill gdm also | 02:19 |
| dutch | too much time working and not enough time at the box :( | 02:19 |
| lsuactiafner | but just press control alt backspace in X | 02:19 |
| lsuactiafner | and you will kill X and gdm will restart it | 02:19 |
| hondje | kbrooks: Well, like how to make a deb pkg properly, how to get things like transcode to build, stuff like that | 02:19 |
| fabio | lsuactiafner, I do but then appear the black screen with the text only, how do I launch the graphics again? | 02:19 |
| kbrooks | hondje: er, the first....mmmm, let me check | 02:19 |
| hondje | I man debhelper once, got lost in 10 seconds...what I've been doing is cheating and using checkinstall to make a lame .deb, and then working from that | 02:19 |

| ompaul | marjorie, if you can't get cups to fix the problem using either of the tools, the one I pointed you at ant the one bob2 pointed you at I suggest the following, remove the printer that exists, restart your gnome session set up printer test it with OO if neither of these work and you really really really (no joke here) want to try to use the root password then do this - launch a terminal, in it type `sudo root passwd` that will allow you | 03:25 |
| ompaul | to set a root password, to remove it after, use nano in this command line 'sudo nano /etc/shadow' be very very careful with this after the word root you will see a full colon : and a long string of characters which finishes with a : , if you replace the characters with a single * you will have removed roots password as you most likely will not need it again. | 03:25 |

| bob2 | hussam: cat /dev/null > /path/to/file | 04:28 |
| bob2 | islander: I'm just wondering what you think is missing :) | 04:28 |

| novaflare | know of even | 04:28 |
| novaflare | rubies on my windows boot runs at about 20 to 22 fps (at most) | 04:29 |
| novaflare | on cedega its at like 12 in 1024x768 same settigns as windows | 04:29 |
| bob2 | e17 is a long way from being feature-compettive with gnome | 04:29 |
| bob2 | and lacks things like application support and the HIG | 04:30 |
| bob2 | hussam: np! | 04:30 |
| novaflare | if the ati rpm drivers give me 50% more frame rate as some claimed then ill have same performance as windows | 04:30 |
| islander | I guess that there is nothing missing, what I am saying is that I know that the gnome could be more beautiful and more friendly and obviuosly is more powerful than widows and could have a better gui | 04:30 |
| bob2 | islander: suggestions welcome :-) | 04:30 |

| bob2 | Vjaz: how so? you think they paid for it then ignored the results? | 04:39 |
| xf__ | bob2: care to elaborate? | 04:39 |
| bob2 | Haldrik: fuser -v /dev/video0 | 04:39 |
| hondje | Vjaz: They have reasons, but their being tired of explaining to every request got them a bad rep | 04:39 |
| Vjaz | bob2: GNOME is concerned about usability a lot, but often if a user says "I would really like feature X." they might not listen. | 04:39 |
| hondje | Not bad like #debian bad, but pretty bad | 04:39 |
| bob2 | Vjaz: see, users can't just say "I want foo" and complain if foo doesn't get implemented | 04:39 |
| Vjaz | bob2: No, but I think the people doing the testing aren't actual users. | 04:39 |
| bob2 | Vjaz: how do you know that? | 04:40 |

| bob2 | xf__: actually, getting the source package and twiddling debian/rules and debian/control is probably enough | 04:40 |
| hondje | Here's a thought....what's better, their following a strict set of guidelines, or KDE's free-for-all? | 04:40 |

| hondje | why experienced? Why not newbies? | 04:40 |
| bob2 | Vjaz: of course, hence I'd be very surprised if they did that | 04:40 |
| hondje | I'd imagine that'd be better | 04:41 |
| bob2 | hondje: Vjaz is assuming their testing was designed to say "do what you're doing!" | 04:41 |
| hondje | ah, I misunderstood | 04:41 |
| novaflare | in any test of software you want both newbies to it and experts | 04:41 |
| hondje | If that was the case, gnome2 would be more like gnome1 | 04:41 |
| novaflare | ofte it will be the totaly unexpoerianced who find a bug that every one else will miss | 04:42 |
| voth | bob2, dumb question but how would I determine which 'device' to use in mkfs -t ext3 /dev/??? to make sure its the fw drive and not any other drive. | 04:42 |

| Vjaz | The only thing I'm assuming is that they had a broad range of interface testers some of whom had no idea what GNOME was before the tests. And the point is that the testers don't equal to the users who are elsewhere pleading for features to be implemented etc. | 04:42 |

| bob2 | xlumin: why do you have a seperate /boot at all? | 04:43 |
| thr1ce | bob2, :( | 04:43 |
| bob2 | xf__: seems to be a seperate source package for each kernel version | 04:43 |
| bob2 | xf__: get the linux-restricted-modules-2.6.10 package or so | 04:43 |
| xlumin | cos I'm movin it to the new hdd.. | 04:44 |
| Vjaz | bob2: I don't have an example of that, except that I'm pissed that there's no menu editor. | 04:44 |
| hondje | Vjaz: That has to do with meeting FDO stds IIRC | 04:44 |
| hondje | It'll be back in 2.12 | 04:44 |
| thr1ce | gcc is used to compile the kernel, right? | 04:44 |
| hondje | Or I'm totally lying to you :) | 04:44 |
| Vjaz | bob2: But it's more of a comparison to KDE. I understand they've been quite "helpful" in implementing a lot of stuff users requested, which has resulted in crowded menus and such. | 04:44 |
| bob2 | thr1ce: yes... | 04:44 |
| xlumin | thing is, I can't get grub to install itself properly on the new hdd | 04:44 |
| Vjaz | hondje: FDO stds? | 04:44 |

| xf__ | hmm.. is there a list of gpg keys i can import of ubuntu dev's? gpg/dpkg-buildpackage is complaining | 04:45 |
| Vjaz | hondje: It was there in 2.8, so I don't know about that... | 04:46 |
| bob2 | xf__: right | 04:46 |
| bob2 | xf__: just build with with "dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -uc -us -nc" | 04:46 |
| hondje | Vjaz: yeah...if you ask in #gnome, they'll explain it with only mild annoyance | 04:46 |
| xf__ | bob2: what do those particular arguments do? | 04:46 |
| bob2 | xf__: the gpg error is because it can't find their *private* key, which is presumably not available ;p | 04:46 |

| delire | kalias: 1) your ubuntu system uses a package manager called 'dpkg'(de-package). a frontend to this package manager is 'apt' (from 'aptitude'). apt grabs pacakges from package servers called 'repositories', of which there are thousands around the world. | 08:23 |

| Micksa | lsuactiafner: there is, it's "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop" | 09:04 |
| dimeo | Why do I dislike living in a hightech world today? My wife unplugged a USB device and it blew the fuse on the powersupply of the computer. But the fuse is *not*replaceable. :( wtf? | 09:04 |

| delire | dimeo: the command line is a gateway to many excellent things. most of the servers in the world speak the language of your terminal. | 09:04 |
| lsuactiafner | if i didnt like ubuntu i wouldnt run it | 09:04 |
| linukso | lsuactiafner: if you want that, then you prob. dont need gdm, just use startx... | 09:04 |
| Choubaka | lsuactiafner: Ok, that sounds reasonable. Go code it yourself or file a big report. :) | 09:04 |

| littleworm | the ati driver, rglx or something | 09:08 |

| littleworm | yes | 09:08 |

| stazz | Is there any way to change the order of soundcards ???? | 09:08 |
| HappyFool | J0el: yes | 09:08 |
| crimsun | lsuactiafner: the Ubuntu way of enabling the Nvidia driver (since it's installed by default) does not require that you kill X manually. All you have to do is restart gdm as the final step (which yes, will restart X) | 09:08 |

| crimsun | lsuactiafner: now if you're accustomed to installing the Nvidia driver manually, yes, you'll have to go through that whole process of stopping gdm - but why would you? It's so much easier the Ubuntu way (wiki/BinaryDriverHowto). | 09:10 |

| HappyFool | Chislon: or whatever. flexibility is useful, and is all you can do if your specification is as yet unfixed | 10:12 |
| Chislon | so its not a good idea to have two partitions, 1 just big enough to put winxp on, 1 just big enough to put ubuntu on, a partition for swap space, and then the rest as fat32 to be accessed by both linux and windows ? | 10:12 |

| stazz | Chislon: the linux partition can be less than 10 gigabytes, and all the system-stuff fits neatly in | 10:16 |

| IIIEars | Chislon - making a boot partition is a little extra effort but keeping your grub set up stable is worth it. - personally i like to have a large fat32 parttion to store files. | 10:17 |
| Fator_Dee | marsh: quite vague eh? | 10:17 |

| marsh | Fator_Dee, or erase a rw | 10:18 |
| stazz | Chislon: You should read some tutorials. You typically need a system-partitio (<10gb) a swap-partition(512mb-1gb) and a home-directory for your personal stuff, which's size depends on what you are going to store, if movies/music & etc -> bigger partition | 10:18 |
| stazz | Chislon: the linux partitioning happens during the startup, but it doesn't allow you to modify windows-partitions | 10:18 |
| stazz | Chislon: during installation, of course.. | 10:18 |
| Fator_Dee | marsh: preferences are ok? | 10:18 |
| Chislon | IIIEars, cuz the boot only holds grub? (i dont know hat grub is besides soemthing to do with dual booting selection or something) | 10:18 |

| LinuxJones | Chislon, all of your personal files and personal settings are separate from the core of the OS. On their own partition you can do a re-install if something bad happens and keep all of your settings. | 10:26 |

| signius | FR500: Are you claiming im not normal ??????????????????? | 10:26 |

| LinuxJones | Chislon, I haven't run windows in 5 years so I don't know if Ubuntu supports ntfs resizing. | 10:32 |
| marsh | and there's no help from the graveman site - their FAQ only has 2 questions - surely there has to be more than 2 FAQ's!! | 10:32 |
| Chislon | LinuxJones, i did that, and i dunno i am not sure that it wouldnt clear away windows or soemthing? | 10:32 |
| Chislon | wawa, is there a free one? | 10:32 |
| Fator_Dee | marsh: you could try gnomebaker | 10:32 |
| Earthen | snoffy :ok so you have some other problem sorry | 10:32 |
| Chislon | LinuxJones, ok, thank you :) | 10:32 |
| kbrooks | this gnome-terminal simply doesnt display a prompt | 10:32 |
| wawa | Chislon: try to check if they have free trial | 10:32 |
| kbrooks | why? | 10:33 |
| Chislon | wawa, they dont | 10:33 |
| pfp | Chetic: it re-runs the configure scripts from package xserver-xorg, asking you about display h/w etc. | 10:33 |
| Chislon | wawa, i checked earlier | 10:33 |
| marsh | Fator_Dee, does it make audio cd's? i used to use k3b & it was xlnt... but kdebase wont install on ubuntu >:( | 10:33 |
| Chetic | pfp - alright that might help.. but how many kilobytes is 256MB exactly? | 10:33 |
| pfp | Chetic: you should choose the correct driver there (fgrlxsomehthing for ati cards i think) | 10:33 |
| snoopy_ | FR500: i pinged 192.168.1.1 and it said 100% packet loss | 10:33 |
| marsh | so i can't have it... | 10:33 |
| Chetic | pfp - yeah | 10:33 |
| Fator_Dee | marsh: not sure about that | 10:33 |
| FR500 | what is your ip? | 10:33 |
| marsh | 'cause i cant make kdebase install | 10:33 |
| Chislon | and everyone agrees that 6 gig is good for /? | 10:33 |
| kbrooks | brb | 10:34 |
| FR500 | snoopy_, then you are not connected | 10:34 |
| snoopy_ | hmm | 10:34 |
| pfp | Chetic: usually you dont need to specify your video ram anywhere, should be autoconfigured, but 256 MB == 256*1024 kB | 10:34 |
| marsh | anyone know what the main kde package is called? | 10:34 |
| pfp | *detected | 10:34 |
| marsh | is it qt? | 10:34 |
| FR500 | snoopy_, then you are not connected | 10:34 |
| snoopy_ | FR500: the applet says it is sending and recieving packets via wlan0 | 10:34 |
| wawa | Chislon: I dont know of any other....you can reformat your HDD and do the partition there | 10:34 |
