| wc_nix | in /etc? | 12:12 |
| nalioth | wc_nix: open (as root) /etc/apt/sources.list and make sure any line beginning with deb-src is uncommented | 12:12 |
| robert__ | /etc/apt/sources.list | 12:12 |
| xolotl_ | robert__, it should start up automatically, but the way it works is that the system looks in /etc/inittab - figures out what the default run level is set to, looks in /etc/rc<runlevelnumber>.d/ and follows all the links in that directory to the /etc/init.d/ directory and starts the appropriate scripts. | 12:12 |

| nickrud | Stew2, you now have you winmodem working, right? | 02:32 |
| LinuxJones | dennis_, but gnome can do that by simply right clicking the .iso file and burn from there. | 02:33 |
| dennis_ | so graveman is not necessary? | 02:33 |
| nickrud | Stew2, because, there's two ways to go from here, and if you have modem access, it will be pretty straightforward | 02:34 |
| LinuxJones | dennis_, not for burning a .iso file no | 02:34 |
| dennis_ | excellent | 02:34 |

| geetergod | nickrud, if it worked before with it in there why does it need to go now? | 03:13 |

| Tobes | LinuxJones: Misread. Will play using gxine. | 03:33 |
| Tobes | LinuxJones: One moment, let me test. | 03:33 |

| randabis | Ninwa: If you're still there, ubuntu should run great on your IBM notebook at those specs. Ubuntu runs reasonably well on my old gateway laptop (450mhz Pentium 3, 224MB RAM) | 03:33 |

| mrchicago | so what do i do to rip thyself of this issue | 03:33 |
| mrchicago | so what do i do to rid thyself of this issue | 03:33 |
| mrchicago | that is | 03:33 |
| randabis | Ninwa: main concerns would be video and networking | 03:33 |
| LinuxJones | geargolem, hit the reload button top left first | 03:34 |
| nickrud | geargolem, I've never used an nvidia, but I've seen lots of people on this list have success with that card | 03:34 |

| joeinspirit | tsaphah do you mean when it sits and waits for you to pick a os to load? | 03:34 |
| nickrud | so, what do you mean, 'synaptic won't let me access updates' | 03:34 |
| Ninwa | randabis, thanks | 03:34 |
| Ninwa | the network is a pcmia wireless card | 03:34 |
| Ninwa | how does ubuntu fair with those? | 03:34 |
| mrchicago | and i have an issue with like dvd stuff too | 03:34 |
| Shish | Ninwa: try the livecd first? | 03:34 |
| Tobes | LinuxJones: "Error loading library qtmlClient.dll", when I begin playing a quicktime file. Video, no sound. | 03:34 |
| geargolem | nickrud, i followed so many orders I think I screwed up my machine | 03:34 |
| Ninwa | shish, that's probably a good suggestion | 03:34 |
| Tobes | LinuxJones: Looks like I'm either missing that library, or it's corrupt. | 03:34 |
| mrchicago | heh | 03:34 |
| nickrud | geargolem, lol | 03:35 |
| LinuxJones | Tobes, aha | 03:35 |
| randabis | Ninwa: depends on the card. It's hit or miss usually with wifi cards. A lot work out of the box, while others require tinkering after the install | 03:35 |
| nickrud | geargolem, not you, I am not laughing at you | 03:35 |
| geargolem | nickrud, I edit xserver-xorg with dri, without, with nv, without.... | 03:35 |
| mrchicago | btw xmame works great | 03:35 |
| Ninwa | alright, so you would recommend trying it with the livecd first? so no harm done if it doesnt work | 03:35 |
| mrchicago | configure: error: C++ preprocessor "/lib/cpp" fails sanity check | 03:35 |
| tsaphah | joeinspirit: uh, no :-) After I choose the linux image. I believe it says: "Loading Ubuntu...", after the hang it unloades the kernel and goes through "normal" boot process | 03:35 |
| nickrud | geargolem, ok, lets try to start from scratch | 03:36 |
| mrchicago | any clue what i should do | 03:36 |
| weedar | I have a router in my LAN, I forgot which IP-adress it uses (not the default) - is there any way I can find it out? | 03:36 |
| randabis | Ninwa: sure..that would be a good course of action to take for testing purposes | 03:36 |
| jaysinn | whats the difference between the lice cd and the regular install? | 03:36 |
| geargolem | ok nickrud | 03:36 |
| jaysinn | live | 03:36 |
| nickrud | geargolem, in a terminal, cd /etc/X11 | 03:36 |
| LinuxJones | Tobes, I knew it had to be a codec problem, where did you get the w32codec from Ubuntu or the mplayer site ? | 03:36 |
| joeinspirit | tsaphah, could be that you just have a large kernel image to load. | 03:36 |
| Ninwa | jaysinn, livecd downloads all of the install files I imagine.. It's a smaller cd, but you download everything then afterward | 03:36 |
| geargolem | ok nickrud | 03:36 |
| tsaphah | jaysinn: live cd runs in ram.. not used for installing. Use it to test ubuntu | 03:36 |
| randabis | Ninwa: you could always check the hardware compatibility lists on the ubuntu wiki as well | 03:36 |

| jaysinn | ok | 03:36 |
| Ninwa | randabis, Oh! Didnt evne know about that, great suggestion | 03:36 |
| Ninwa | thank you | 03:37 |
| nickrud | geargolem, sudo mv xorg.conf xorg.conf.bogus | 03:37 |
| jaysinn | thanks | 03:37 |
| Tobes | LinuxJones: It was listed in one of the apt-repositories from UbuntuGuide.org. | 03:37 |
| tsaphah | joeinspirit: hm, well its just the default. Guess I could take some time to par it down.. | 03:37 |
| randabis | jaysinn: livecd runs off of the CD, nothing is saved to the hard drive...regular install requires putting data on the hard drive | 03:37 |
| jaysinn | I see | 03:37 |
| geargolem | don't confuse me Kanuhas :) ok, nickrud | 03:37 |
| LinuxJones | Tobes, that is probably the ones from the Miralat repositories ? | 03:37 |
| joeinspirit | tsaphah, what type of system , is this some slow box for like routing or something? | 03:37 |
| randabis | it uses what is called a ramdisk to run off of the RAM without writing to the hard disk | 03:38 |

| mrchicago | need help | 03:38 |
| Ninwa | randabis, definitely have those, I intended on it | 03:38 |
| randabis | up to you though | 03:38 |
| Ninwa | thanks again :) | 03:39 |
| tsaphah | joeinspirit: Nope, Centrino 1.4 512 ram.. should do fine. Its probably only a 35 sec hang, so its still not horrid, just a surprising place to hang compared to the other linux's I've used | 03:39 |

| joeinspirit | geetergod, so what happened? | 03:39 |
| Tobes | LinuxJones: Not sure. I just installed w32codecs, and attempted to play the same video from gxine. It plays without the error message, but I still get video with no sound. | 03:40 |
| jaysinn | yes | 03:40 |
| mrchicago | i cant go a day without my dvd stuff | 03:40 |
| geetergod | joeinspirit, i couldnt figure out which one it was be under so i wrote down what i had... | 03:40 |
| nickrud | geargolem, restart X (log out, then ctl-alt-backspace) this will give you ubuntu's base config. Then, do http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/BinaryDriverHowto I've seen this work so many times .... | 03:40 |
| Ninwa | randabis, that last bit could've been deemed derogatory, partially.. I'd like to see us as birds instead of sheep :) | 03:40 |

| Ninwa | heh heh :) | 03:41 |
| geargolem | cross your digits, nickrud | 03:41 |

| joeinspirit | geetergod, so is the onboard card now disabled? | 04:09 |
| joeinspirit | or is it still enabled? | 04:09 |

| geetergod | joeinspirit, in BIOS you mean? | 04:09 |
| joeinspirit | well lets get you back at least to where you were before, yes in bios disabled the onboard snd card. | 04:10 |
| geargolem | nickrud glxgears or other 3d apps won't work | 04:10 |
| joeinspirit | geargolem whats the error? and what v-card type? | 04:10 |
| nickrud | geargolem, if system->admin->synaptic gives you that error, you have something extremely wrong with your install | 04:11 |
| geetergod | joeinspirit, disable the audio device in Integrated Peripherals? | 04:11 |
| joeinspirit | geetergod, yes that will get you back to where you were before. | 04:11 |
| geetergod | ok | 04:11 |
| geargolem | nickrud can I reinstall and keep my files somehow? | 04:11 |
| nickrud | in fact, I can't even imaginw what would keep synaptic running from that menu | 04:11 |
| geargolem | nickrud, tried KDE on Hoary and messed it up somehow | 04:12 |

| learning | anyone here mind helping me determine what is causing my system to run so sluggish i suspect some bad settings in hdparm.conf but i'm not sure. my system use to run pretty fast with kde but here lately after about an hour or better of use it seems to "lag" for lack of better words | 04:30 |
| flodine | a why cant i update synaptic | 04:30 |
| nickrud | geargolem, hang in there, I did a couple of installs of debian before I got the hang; but once I had it, I never did a reinstall until I was challenged to try ubuntu. I'ts worth the effort | 04:30 |

| JohnnyQuest | i want to open the .profile file and modify it | 06:03 |
| glDaher | hey am here :) | 06:03 |
| hondje | JohnnyQuest: nano or vim | 06:03 |
| thoreauputic | JohnnyQuest: gksudo gedit /path/to/file | 06:03 |
| TokenBad | could also do root terminal | 06:03 |
| randabis | sudo -s | 06:03 |
| TokenBad | and do pico .profile | 06:03 |
| JohnnyQuest | and that will open it and allow me to edit it? | 06:03 |

| thoreauputic | of course | 06:04 |
| glDaher | nope from ubuntu :D | 06:04 |
| kanzen | johnny: what editor are you familiar with? | 06:04 |

| JohnnyQuest | thats wat im gonna try | 06:05 |
| bleck | does anyone know how to change permissions of say a folder, and all files in that folder at the same time | 06:05 |
| thoreauputic | JohnnyQuest: that will give you a nice graphical editor | 06:05 |

| thoreauputic | kanzen: ;) | 06:05 |

| thoreauputic | kanzen: ed! ed is the editor! | 06:05 |
| dr_willis | glDaher, alt-ctrl-backspace may kick it in the head. :P | 06:05 |
| bleck | ahhh, kewl thans! | 06:06 |
| kanzen | haha | 06:06 |
| forced | hondje: chmod... chown only changes the owner, chmod changes the permissions. -R still holds true. | 06:06 |
| glDaher | dr_willis: this shall restart it, not? | 06:06 |
| bleck | so chmod with -r switch works too... | 06:06 |

| bigfoot1 | hello, how can i have mplayer run in fullscreen mode? In terminal, i do "mplayer -fs foo.avi". The window _does_ open in fullscreen, but the movie file is not fullscreen. Thank you! | 06:08 |
| IIIEars | JohnnyQuest - They are better as a reminder. :x | 06:08 |
| JohnnyQuest | o ok | 06:08 |
| bleck | bigfoot1: i know i had to change the preferences in the video tab in mplayer... to opengl or something like that, just make sure the correct drivers are installed | 06:08 |
| thoreauputic | JohnnyQuest: that's normal | 06:08 |
| randabis | bigfoot1: could be the movie file...might be a widescreen flick | 06:08 |
| TokenBad | IIIEars, this is what I have in fstab: /dev/hdd1 /home/windows vfat rw,auto,unmask=000 0 0 | 06:08 |
| TokenBad | is that right? | 06:08 |
| thoreauputic | JohnnyQuest: takes a while to get into understanding man pages at all | 06:09 |
| thoreauputic | :) | 06:09 |
| glDaher | dr_willis: I want it off, not restarted... | 06:09 |
| glDaher | runlevel 4 | 06:09 |
| bigfoot1 | randabis, the movie file _can_ open in fullscreen in other players (vlc, totem, xine). | 06:09 |
| randabis | ok then | 06:09 |
| randabis | follow bleck's advice then I suppose | 06:09 |
| bleck | bigfoot1: change it from xv in the video tab | 06:09 |
| bigfoot1 | bleck, i was able to run fullscreen in mplayer before ,but i forgot the command. | 06:09 |
| randabis | I don't use mplayer | 06:09 |
| bigfoot1 | from xv to what, bleck? | 06:09 |
| bigfoot1 | oh, to opengl. | 06:09 |
| bigfoot1 | okay. | 06:09 |
| thoreauputic | bigfoot1: or try the -zoom option | 06:10 |
| thoreauputic | bigfoot1: or install xine ;-) | 06:10 |
| bigfoot1 | thoreauputic, okay. I'll try that. This "-zoom" command sounds familar. | 06:10 |
| IIIEars | TokenBad - And it seems similar to the other entries? - beginning to think it is a permission problem or process permission problem | 06:10 |
| TokenBad | IIIEars, this is one of the other entries: /dev/hda1 / ext3 defaults,errors=remount-ro 0 1 | 06:11 |
| === nalioth_wrkn is now known as nalioth | ||
| IIIEars | TokenBad - someone else will know better if it is a permission problem. | 06:11 |
| bigfoot1 | thoreauputic, actually, I have xine installed, and I do prefer xine. But I need to use mplayer because I don't know whether Xine, totem, vlc can delay/change the timing of subtitles. AFAIK, only mplayer can do this. | 06:11 |
| ablyss | on the keyboard pressing 'f' will toggle fullscreen in mplayer | 06:11 |
| thoreauputic | bigfoot1: I see | 06:11 |
| === SlackFart [~el_fart0@soundscape.demon.nl] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| bigfoot1 | ablyss, yes, that's true. But in these instances, F will make the window fullscreen, but keeps the movie at the same size. | 06:12 |
| thoreauputic | bigfoot1: I don't know either... | 06:12 |
| TokenBad | how would I found out the permissions on that drive? | 06:12 |
| nalioth | TokenBad: whats up? | 06:12 |
| bleck | bigfoot1: thats exactly how mine was, till i changed from xv driver, to opengl... just make sure your video card drivers are installed | 06:12 |

| === Efwis I'm history for the night, won't be back until monday bye | ||

| bigfoot1 | bleck, by the way, my preferences are currently set to XWindows (No Xv) in the gstreamer-properties command. | 06:13 |
| bigfoot1 | bleck, do you know how to delay subtitles in xine, totem, or vlc? | 06:13 |

| misael | how do you install realplayer on ubuntu | 06:16 |
| bigfoot1 | I just wish the other players could at least all the features that mplayer has, such as subtitle delay adjusting/snchronizing. | 06:17 |

| caonex_ | nickrud, hplip is the new hp driver for multifunction printersm right? | 08:18 |
| Whistler | [TokenBad] games and few progs | 08:18 |
| hanseatic | i've extracted a tarball and want to create an executable by typing make... however i get the error "make: g++: command not found" | 08:18 |
| d3bian | all u have to do is go to debian's package site and install the deb file for synaptic | 08:19 |
| nalioth_ZzZzZzZ | TokenBad: did you get sorted out? | 08:19 |
| nickrud | caonex_, yeah, and here anyway, it kicks hpoj's ass | 08:19 |

| caonex_ | nickrud, i know i was reading | 08:19 |
| TokenBad | nalioth_ZzZzZzZ, yeah | 08:19 |
| d3bian | besides y would u want such a memmory hugger if u can just use the command line apt-get | 08:19 |
| hanseatic | gm78: g++ 3.3 is installed | 08:19 |
| caonex_ | nickrud, been doing some research for multifunction printers | 08:19 |
| dabaSlon | hanseatic sudo aptitude install build-essential | 08:19 |
| caonex_ | nickrud, no money no problems though hehe | 08:19 |
| gm78 | hanseatic : did u run the configure script before trying to compile? | 08:19 |
| gm78 | hondje : I Sent that to u | 08:19 |

| HappyFool | ChinaCatJones: and ubuntu has not booted successfully ? | 08:28 |
| dr_willis | TokenBad, well first off.. why do you even need a ftp server. :P , install one is as simple as 'sudo apt-get install *nameofFTPserver* , and ssh can basicially do all that a ftp server can do for most needs. :P | 08:29 |
| Ben_Babcock | I'm still having trouble with getting my keyboard to respond during the install (it's on a laptop). The splash-screen is fine, but once the "Choose Your Language" screen loads, the keyboard no longer works. | 08:29 |
| dabaSlon | Madpilot jar files are as you may know, Java programs in an archive file. You can perhaps run them from command line, through Java. | 08:29 |
| ivoks | dabaSlon: you played with breezy? | 08:29 |

| vladuz976 | hey you guys, what is so different in ubuntu? from debian? | 08:29 |
| HappyFool | ChinaCatJones: what i'm trying to find out is if you changed anything to make this happen, or if it's been broken from the install | 08:29 |

| dabaSlon | ivoks no, I have no clue what I did. | 08:29 |

| dabaSlon | I reinstalled, as I said...what was it tho, what did I do? It wouuld sometimes hang before it wiould even count the memory | 08:39 |
| HappyFool | my impression of yum is that it's a bit slow, and a memory hog | 08:40 |
| ivoks | dabaSlon: my guess is that your udev was broken | 08:40 |
| flodnag | at least you can still install apt and synaptic in fedora but this is the ubuntu # hehe | 08:40 |
| ivoks | dabaSlon: i don't know how or why, but it was... | 08:40 |
| dabaSlon | then sometimes it would try to start grub, and the screen would be like grub...grub...grub...grub... | 08:40 |
| ivoks | vladuz976: yum is redhat's copy of apt system | 08:40 |
| dabaSlon | aha, well, can I get teh files I had on the ahrd disk, tho, and take a look at the udev fikles to see if it was that? | 08:40 |

| HappyFool | ChinaCatJones: i think that the double / single commented stuff in that section is used by ubuntu to generate the section below | 08:50 |
| nickrud | flodnag, if you're serious, it's actually aptitude update && aptitude -d upgrade && aptitude -d install (from an old script) | 08:50 |

| glyph | bob2: yeah, unloading the driver is another problem | 09:34 |

| whiprush | otherwise it'll sit there. | 09:34 |

| glyph | ivoks: if breezy breaks my laptop I am suing you! ;-) | 09:38 |
| ivoks | bob2: it works, true | 09:38 |
| bob2 | so I wouldn't neccessarily assume it will work better for you in 2.6.12 | 09:38 |
| ivoks | bob2: but randomly, it looses any connection | 09:38 |
| whiprush | glyph: don't just go upgrading to breezy just for that. It's pretty broken for lots of people. | 09:38 |

| bob2 | learn25: did that fix your problem for you? | 09:40 |

| concept10 | Okay, im new to ubuntu, but not new to linux. I like to drag and drop files in nautilus. of course it says I dont have permissions..what is the fastest way around this. change the run command? | 11:12 |
| thoreauputic | concept10: "gksudo nautilus" | 11:12 |

| === thoreauputic is here:here | ||
| concept10 | thoreauputic, where should I add that command to make it system wide? | 11:13 |

| thoreauputic | concept10: system wide I don't know | 11:14 |
| bob2 | concept10: you're not new to linux? | 11:14 |
| bob2 | concept10: your question is "how do I make every file and directory writable by every user" | 11:14 |
| whiprush | concept10: you shouldn't have to run that command regularly. | 11:14 |
| concept10 | not new, this sudo is wrecking my nerves | 11:14 |
| Seveas | concept10, sounds like you want the Linspire security mechanism | 11:14 |

| concept10 | Nope | 11:15 |
| bob2 | concept10: so, normally you'd login to X as root? | 11:15 |
| SigNagE | hey, can someone help me install some drivers for my wireless card [im a total linux newbie] | 11:15 |
| concept10 | I usually run as root, havent had any trouble | 11:15 |
| whiprush | concept10: bad idea. | 11:15 |
| SigNagE | i have a guide but i dont know a lot of the talk, "terminal/shell/console window" etc | 11:15 |
| bob2 | right | 11:15 |
| ukato | ficusplanet, okay, thanks for all the help. i guess i'll try to install that driver | 11:15 |
| === EL [~luke@220-245-246-55-nsw-pppoe.tpgi.com.au] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| Seveas | concept10, the quickest hack is making nautilus setuid root, but it's samn ugly and has more security issues than wolud fit in a 100-pagfe paper :) | 11:15 |
| EL | hello | 11:16 |
| bob2 | concept10: so, not being able to write to random dirs has nothing to do with sudo, you'd have thos problem on any distribution | 11:16 |
| SigNagE | hi | 11:16 |
| Seveas | ok, me needs coffe | 11:16 |
| bob2 | or Unix OS, for that matter | 11:16 |
| concept10 | no one on here can state a specific example where running root has caused them trouble | 11:16 |
| Seveas | my spelling s*s atm | 11:16 |
| whiprush | concept10: the best way is to run as a normal user, and use sudo when you need it. | 11:16 |
| thoreauputic | concept10: that's not only silly, it's potentially bad for other net users | 11:16 |
| EL | can someone help me, with getting my speakers to work and play music? | 11:16 |
| concept10 | whiprush, I know that is the best way. But I dont want to type in a passwd everytime I want to drag some files | 11:17 |
| bob2 | concept10: once I was in /usr/share/, and ran "rm /tmp/ *" to clean out /tmp | 11:17 |
| bob2 | concept10: if I'd been root, I'd have been screwed | 11:17 |
| bob2 | concept10: what are you doing that involves modifying root's files so often? | 11:17 |
| === Nakkel [~nakkel@vektori.com] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| bob2 | concept10: I've never had reason in my 5 years on linux to modify a root file with a file manager | 11:18 |
| whiprush | concept10: there's nothing you should be doing to your files that require accessing anything outside of your home, that's what the package manager is for. | 11:18 |
| === DJ_Mirage [~djmirage@biggetje.xs4all.nl] has joined #ubuntu | ||

| === spiral [~spiral@lafilaire-4-82-224-249-43.fbx.proxad.net] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| bob2 | concept10: yes, my point was that I made a typo. if I'd been root, I'd been screwed. | 11:19 |
| thoreauputic | concept10: you are arguing against 30 years of accumulated *nix wisdom... | 11:19 |
| Seveas | concept10, that's not the point... | 11:19 |
| bob2 | concept10: what are you doing that involves modifying root's files so much? | 11:19 |
| whiprush | concept10: you can do 99% of what you need to do as a user, you just need to start thinking that way. | 11:19 |
| Seveas | concept10, there is a good reason unix/linux like systems have this permission setup, you should not break it. | 11:19 |
| concept10 | I just like to moves files around in file manager no specific purpose... for example dragging this xmms theme into the proper directory after I downloaded it | 11:19 |
| Seveas | concept10, xmms themes go into ~/.xmms/Themes | 11:20 |
| bob2 | concept10: the "proper directory" is ~/.xmms/Skins/, which is in your home dir | 11:20 |
| thoreauputic | concept10: that doesn't require root | 11:20 |
| bob2 | which is writable by you | 11:20 |
| Seveas | you already have permissions for that. | 11:20 |
| concept10 | thoreauputic, some of that 30 years of *nix doesnt really apply to a single user box | 11:20 |
| === thoreauputic gives up and shakes his head sadly | ||

| bob2 | so you've said | 11:23 |

| Seveas | and Eclipse | 11:24 |
| thoreauputic | IIIEars: I don't see a connection - i thought "halt" did the same thing more or less as "shutdown -h now" ? | 11:24 |
| === terrex [~terrex@84-122-69-8.onocable.ono.com] has left #ubuntu ["Regards!"] | ||
| bob2 | oh yeah, and monodevelop | 11:25 |
| Jormundgand | I prefer "shutdown -h now". It feels more authoritative. | 11:25 |
| stjepan | but it is for KDE | 11:25 |
| stjepan | Eclipse is slow | 11:25 |
| ukato | i'm having trouble building something from source, can anyone help? | 11:25 |
| stjepan | monodevelop is not C++ IDE | 11:25 |
| bob2 | ukato: you need to be more specific | 11:25 |
| bob2 | ukato: tell us what you're building, how far into the instructions you are, and be ready to paste the error to #flood | 11:26 |
| IIIEars | bob2 - Thanks. - question #204 potential scewups using a new OS 1 googleplex X 2 squared. - grin | 11:26 |
| bob2 | IIIEars: heh | 11:26 |
| ukato | bob2, okay | 11:26 |
| ukato | bob2 i'm trying to build the source for this driver. | 11:26 |
| bob2 | ukato: which driver? | 11:26 |
| stjepan | which IDE do you use for C++ development? | 11:26 |
| bob2 | emacs | 11:27 |
| ukato | for a USB network device | 11:27 |
| ukato | let me grab the link | 11:27 |
| concept10 | theres small subtle changes from gnome 2.8 to 2.10 thats kinda wierd. For example you cant right click and access the properties of a menu item (applications, places, system) | 11:27 |
| Seveas | concept10, that's due to the change to the freedesktop system | 11:27 |
| bob2 | concept10: yes, that's because there's an entirely new cross-platform menu system | 11:27 |
| ukato | http://sourceforge.net/projects/zd1211/ is the driver i'm trying to build | 11:28 |
| concept10 | I thought gnome was free before? | 11:28 |

| bob2 | Howitzer: if you're installing, the installer asks you | 12:55 |
| Howitzer | but well it doesn't | 12:56 |
| bob2 | it does for me | 12:56 |
| sascha_ | anybody can help with OOo2 Wizards, please? | 12:56 |
| Howitzer | Oo | 12:56 |
| zerokills | howitzer: (1) change in sources.list (2) Kubuntu is more difficult to figure out than Ubuntu | 12:56 |

| Howitzer | hmm | 12:56 |
| thoreauputic | sascha_: could you possibly be a bit vaguer ;) ? | 12:56 |

| sascha_ | thoreauputic, ok...Menu/File/Wizards/Letter for example....nothing happens | 12:58 |

| Gus__ | yup | 03:32 |
| Nige | you need secuirty on the local files | 03:32 |
| Nige | ie, everyone needs read access on the local | 03:33 |

| Nige | so you wanna get mount a windows share | 03:33 |
| Nige | ? | 03:33 |
| Gus__ | i want to be able to access files on a winXP machine from an Ubuntu machine | 03:33 |
| Nige | ah okay | 03:34 |
| Nige | thats first step | 03:34 |
| Nige | you need read privellegs on it | 03:34 |
| ram_einstein | how do I delete my obsolete packages? | 03:34 |
| Nige | :) | 03:34 |
| ram_einstein | and refresh my aptitude | 03:34 |
| Nige | windows needs both permission otherwise it dont work | 03:34 |
| Gus__ | Nige, the thing is that, when you setup a file sharing in winXP, it just asks a sharename and if you want to authorise others to modify the files. i checked both boxes | 03:34 |
| ram_einstein | to fresh download and install everything hereafter? | 03:34 |

| Seveas | what is the error? | 03:37 |
| Nige | you could try something like this | 03:37 |
| Gus__ | okay | 03:37 |
| ram_einstein | jeroen_, but I thought apt takes care of that... | 03:38 |
| ram_einstein | Seveas, could you list a few likely ones? | 03:38 |
| Nige | smbmount -t autofs //Server/Share /winshare (local share) | 03:38 |
| Nige | that might prompt for user name and passwd | 03:38 |

| ram_einstein | but when I use the app, there seem to be "bugs" | 03:40 |

| Seveas | ram_einstein, gnome/kde/xfce? | 03:41 |
| ram_einstein | gnome | 03:41 |
| Gus__ | Nige, i don't know, how do i check ? | 03:41 |
| VRH | but samba uses the win dirver of ntfs? | 03:41 |
| Seveas | what's the error with xmms, only the icon missing or more? | 03:41 |
| ram_einstein | normal ubuntu, I just downloaded it and burnt it | 03:41 |
| ram_einstein | no funny tricks | 03:41 |
| Gus__ | Nige, Usage: mount.smbfs service mountpoint [-n] [-o options,...] | 03:42 |
| Seveas | VRH, samba uses the samba protocol. It is complete;y agnostic to the actual partition types | 03:42 |
| ram_einstein | and added some extra repos | 03:42 |
| Seveas | ram_einstein, ah, which ones? | 03:42 |
| Gus__ | Nige, that's the first line of the stuff i get when i type "smbmount" | 03:42 |

| ram_einstein | whoops Seveas! | 03:43 |
| HappyFool | Nige: for what it's worth, Gus__ has a mount command already (mount -t smbfs ... blah blah), it's the windows permissions are the problem | 03:43 |
| stjepan | can I download Opera browser with apt-get? | 03:43 |
| Seveas | stjepan, no | 03:43 |
| ram_einstein | one sec, I'll get you my sources.list | 03:43 |
| Seveas | it's not free software | 03:43 |
| TokenBad | erUSUL, not sure its whatever is default in ubuntu..cause it just says totem in the music and video section | 03:43 |

| Nige | you sure"? | 03:43 |
| stjepan | Seveas, I need to download from opera.com? | 03:44 |

| Gus__ | Nige, it asks me for a password, but i dunno which password it is expecting | 03:48 |
| jeroen_ | cursed_sword, Opera is just the best browser out there. It's not free though, so I won't use it :) | 03:48 |

| cursed_sword | Regarding updates to rpm/deb whatever regardless of distribution, has anyone pondered the possibility of creating a torrent like system for synaptic or apt instead of basing all updates on a few mirrors which is expensive for the people who run them? | 03:51 |

| thoreauputic | or are not suitable for Ubuntu for legal/ philosophical reasons | 04:24 |

| thoreauputic | Shadowpillar: legal issues | 04:25 |
| Shadowpillar | this is one huge drawback to debian systems | 04:25 |
| Gus__ | about this eject thing, it is REALLY frustrating that it locks the cdrom tray =/ | 04:25 |
| Hajuu | No how do I force it to eject.. it says it can not be ejected at this time | 04:25 |
| Shadowpillar | easy to break, and you can only (safely) get your packages from one selected controlled source, not in the repository? you cant use that app | 04:25 |
| Shadowpillar | :/ | 04:25 |
| willsky | excuse me | 04:25 |

| Hajuu | Pixel83: I tried that. Even tried sudo umount -f /media/cdrom... still just says its busy | 04:29 |
| aleksander | nalioth, how can i start vnc-common? | 04:29 |
| Shadowpillar | Pixel83: it locks the cdrom drives to prevent removal of media without unmounting so the system doesn't give you some nasty surprise | 04:30 |
| HappyFool | Hajuu: try 'lsof /media/cdrom' and 'lsof /media/cdrom0' to find out what's accessing the drive | 04:30 |

| jbroome | lspci sees all of my nics, so that's a good sign | 08:26 |

| david | Seveas, thanks what you told me worked, except i got an error saying that the repository wasnt found | 11:56 |
| Seveas | (or any file) | 11:56 |
| JAyRULE | there is sound...but xmms hangs when i try to play an mp3 file | 11:56 |
| Seveas | JAyRULE, change the xmms output plugin to esound | 11:56 |
| SeamusLP | You may not have mp3 support installed, or you may be using the wrong output plugin | 11:56 |
| dennis | Hmm, well what I meant was like stuff like the myspace messenger...it is flash | 11:56 |
| xabbu| | Anyone in here plays Nexuiz? And is abel to have xmms or so in the background? | 11:56 |
| JDahl | SeamusLP, I was trying to point out that most people can live happily without flash - since most applications of it seems quite useless | 11:56 |
| IRCMonkey | who speak spanish there? | 11:56 |
| zukalk | JAyRULE: xmms's been acting weird too. i changed the output to OSS | 11:56 |
| JDahl | SeamusLP, but maybe I am wrong | 11:57 |
| dennis | And I only use it because this chicks dad blocked all the ports for messengers on their computer... | 11:57 |
| Seveas | david, do an apt-get update | 11:57 |
| dennis | so its the only thing she can use.... | 11:57 |
| dennis | IRCMonkey, yo hablo espanol un poco | 11:57 |
| dennis | ;) | 11:57 |
| Seveas | IRCMonkey, #ubuntu-es | 11:57 |
| JAyRULE | oh okay...ill give that a shot | 11:57 |
| dennis | Can anyone help me with my flash problems... | 11:57 |
| IRCMonkey | como hago para comunicarme con los creadores de ubuntu? | 11:57 |
| david | seveas, yup that fixed it | 11:57 |
| SeamusLP | JDahl: Yeah most applications are, and that's probably been the common sentiment against implementing an open source version. | 11:57 |
| concept10 | what is the easy way to print man pages? | 11:57 |
| Seveas | IRCMonkey, #ubuntu-es please | 11:57 |
| zukalk | JAyRULE: you can try Esound too | 11:57 |
| Seveas | zukalk, do NOT use OSS | 11:57 |
| Seveas | OSS is deprecated.. | 11:58 |
| zukalk | Seveas: how so? | 11:58 |
| IRCMonkey | how can I speak with the proyect ubuntu? | 11:58 |
| Seveas | concept10, man -t | lpr | 11:58 |
| dennis | Seveas, is there any way to fix the flash shit? The myspace messenger doesn't work in firefox in ubuntu very well....and it is the only way I can talk to some people...:( | 11:58 |
| IRCMonkey | thank you seveas | 11:58 |
| Seveas | dennis, flash is sucky | 11:58 |
| JAyRULE | its hanging right now...is there a way to close it? i didnt see it using "top" | 11:58 |
| dennis | Yes but it is the only way. I cna talk to her :x | 11:59 |
| Seveas | and unfixable since it is closed source and macromedia ignores linux | 11:59 |
| dennis | :( | 11:59 |
| Seveas | dennis, only the there-is-no-sound-in-flash problem is fixable | 11:59 |
| SeamusLP | What kinds of problems are you having with flash? | 11:59 |
| dennis | Like...I can't type in the text box and shit... | 11:59 |
| JAyRULE | well..brb | 11:59 |
| SeamusLP | Ack, doubt anyone can help you there | 11:59 |
| dennis | Yeah :( | 12:00 |
