| zyth | djm62, ahh | 12:00 |
| Chetic | seth_k, that's awesome.. thanks! | 12:00 |
| djm62 | why it wasn't right to begin with, I have no idea...multimedia-- | 12:00 |
| seth_k | Chetic, wait, are you wanting for 64-bit? | 12:00 |
| Chetic | oh heh it's not? | 12:00 |
| seth_k | Chetic, I just now scrolled up and read | 12:00 |
| Chetic | yeah that's what I need | 12:01 |
| zyth | it claims my system is too slow to play it | 12:01 |
| zyth | lol | 12:01 |
| JDigital | I think mplayer sometimes goes out of sync whenever it's using too much CPU | 12:01 |
| scorpix | is gaim 1.3.1 been backported to ubuntu? | 12:01 |
| JDigital | yeah | 12:01 |
| JDigital | try -vo sdl | 12:01 |
| seth_k | Chetic, zSNES is in x86 assembly, so doesn't work with 64-bit :( | 12:01 |
| JDigital | mplayer -vo sdl whatever.avi | 12:01 |
| seth_k | scorpix, yes, it's in staging | 12:01 |
| Chetic | seth_k, ever? it won't ever work? | 12:01 |
| JDigital | it uses less CPU | 12:01 |
| djm62 | Chetic: snes9x is the one to work on | 12:01 |

| Chetic | djm62, yeah but snes9x-x just doesn't exist in the lists | 12:01 |

| visor | hi | 12:01 |
| pfp | heh, maybe you could run 32-bit under some emulator on 64 | 12:01 |
| zyth | should I install totem-xine anyways? Is it happier than totem-gstreamer? | 12:02 |
| djm62 | Chetic: you'll need to get the source... | 12:02 |
| JDigital | shame, that would mean that zsnes might eventually go dead | 12:02 |
| JDigital | no use mplayer, mplayer is awesome | 12:02 |
| Chetic | djm62, ok, lame | 12:02 |
| JDigital | mplayer mplayer mplayer | 12:02 |
| === pfp uses totem-xine | ||
| zyth | JDigital, lol | 12:02 |
| lsuactiafner | mplayer is the best. | 12:02 |
| zyth | I guess I'll just set vo=sdl in my mplayer .config | 12:02 |
| visor | do you guys know where to start (what documentation to read) to have multiple ip addresses on the same machine (having two NIC's of course) or what software do i need? | 12:02 |
| djm62 | Chetic: such is the lot of the early adopter...serves you right for being able to afford 64-bit ;) | 12:02 |
| Seveas | visor, man ifconfig is a good place | 12:03 |
| scorpix | mplayer is good but still doesn't play .3gp file like xine :( | 12:03 |

| Seveas | visor, you can even have multiple ip-adresses on one nic :) | 12:03 |
| LinuxJones | visor, you can set seperate static ip addresses in network-admin for your devices | 12:03 |

| _cazabam | msg431: then symlink it to /etc/rc2.d and call it S##yourscript - where ## is a number like 80 | 12:12 |
| heimdall | I arrive on the screen where I have to put my login/pwd | 12:12 |

| heimdall | and then | 12:12 |
| heimdall | I have a brown screen, a white cursor, and nothing else | 12:13 |
| pfp | Fabian: hmm... maybe you could remove just hda5 and hda2 | 12:13 |
| seth_k | Chetic, the only thing I can think then is that apt has decided that you can't build snes9x on an x64 system, maybe for the same reason as zSNES | 12:13 |
| _cazabam | concept10: hmmm - probably want to check your bios setting or something | 12:13 |

| _cazabam | concept10: sounds like a specific bug with your laptop | 12:20 |
| Fabian | pfp, how much will that be? | 12:20 |
| _cazabam | concept10: you use ACPI? | 12:20 |
| RuffianSoldier | where is the ubuntu sparkle background located? | 12:20 |
| RuffianSoldier | what directory | 12:20 |
| husky1982 | hm | 12:21 |
| pfp | Fabian: df -h, then multiply the usage with about 0.7 | 12:21 |
| husky1982 | does anybody got two minutes for me? | 12:21 |
| concept10 | _cazabam, do you mean is it configured? not sure | 12:21 |
| heimdall | LinuxJones : in fact I installed ubuntu twice... the first time I didn't see the bottom of the installation screen, a do it again putin "boot : linux vga=771" and it was ok with the console mode | 12:21 |
| pfp | Fabian: unless there's lots of music/movies which won't compress | 12:21 |
| _cazabam | concept10: if you didn't specifically turn it off, it will be on :) | 12:22 |
| heimdall | LinuxJones : so maybe it is ok for the console mode, but not for X ? | 12:22 |
| pfp | Fabian: tell you what, we could continue this tomorrow, if that's ok | 12:22 |
| Fabian | pfp, no I haven't got any files on my linux system. Everything's on that Fat part. so what do you need? Used MB of hda4? | 12:22 |
| fivre | hey, how do I do monitor calibration? | 12:22 |
| heimdall | LinuxJones : but here, I don't know what to do, and if it SiS630 the cause of the pb | 12:22 |
| LinuxJones | heimdall, you can try editing your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file using nano and change the video driver from whatever it is now to vesa | 12:22 |
| heimdall | hum | 12:23 |
| pfp | Fabian: yea, you need to copy that over the network... and also, you need to copy the fat's content somewhere | 12:23 |
| concept10 | _cazabam, It should be on. I have to find out more about the bios settings. Im tired of this crap. :) I will write a wiki page when I figure this out | 12:23 |
| LinuxJones | heimdall, that driver works with most video cards (rather slowly) but it does work | 12:23 |

| Fabian | pfp, so I need around 1.68 GB of diskspace? | 12:24 |
| lsuactiafner | husky1982 : look into dnsmasq, i use that but not dhcp.. dont like automation | 12:25 |
| LinuxJones | heimdall, ok or you can try opening another terminal when you see the gnome login screen. Hit ctrl + alt + F2, login as your user then type dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, for your video driver to use select vesa | 12:25 |
| husky1982 | I got the eth0 set up with a static IP adress. How to set it up with dhcp by terminal? | 12:25 |
| Fabian | could do that, I think.... on a ext3 partition? | 12:25 |

| Loki_VA | nice | 12:55 |
| lsuactiafner | nvidia drivers work great as long as you dont use apt-get | 12:55 |
| Bisclaveret | loki: my package of 10 cd's was shipped for free to me in the US via 2-3 countries it looked like, i think sweden | 12:55 |
| lsuactiafner | in my experience | 12:55 |
| Burgundavia | lsuactiafner, I would disagree with that | 12:55 |
| Loki_VA | Bisclaveret, how long did it take? | 12:55 |
| Burgundavia | lsuactiafner, and please avoid telling people not to use apt-get | 12:55 |
| Bisclaveret | about 4 weeks | 12:55 |
| Burgundavia | lsuactiafner, it is very bad advice, and likely to break peoples systems | 12:56 |
| Loki_VA | lol i could download it sooner than that on dialup hehe | 12:56 |
| lsuactiafner | Burgundavia : well they used apt-get and ran into a problem.. so my suggestion is valid | 12:56 |
| JDigital | nvidia drivers mysteriously worked for me | 12:56 |
| JDigital | I mean in the upgrade | 12:56 |
| Bisclaveret | probably. but i wish Mandrake had had that option | 12:56 |
| Chetic | the fuck.. somebody should know how to make applications find a file that I already HAVE | 12:56 |
| lsuactiafner | apt-get aint the endall beginall | 12:56 |
| JDigital | I had heard that nvidia drivers like dto crash | 12:56 |
| JDigital | when you upgraded to hoary | 12:56 |
| JDigital | I have the drivers from the website | 12:56 |
| lsuactiafner | Burgundavia : and it wouldnt break a system to compile from source. | 12:56 |
| lsuactiafner | compiling from source makes things more compatable for my specific system | 12:57 |
| Burgundavia | lsuactiafner, telling people to compile from source is terrible advice, and should not be given | 12:57 |
| djm62 | lsuactiafner: your case is atypical, most people will not be better off compiling from source | 12:57 |
| lsuactiafner | Burgundavia : whats wrong with source? | 12:57 |
| Burgundavia | lsuactiafner, it does not interface with apt/dpkg | 12:57 |
| Burgundavia | and unless you know what you are doing, you can seriously mess up stuff | 12:58 |
| lsuactiafner | djm62 : yeh but it an option | 12:58 |
| djm62 | lsuactiafner: it's an extra step that can go wrong, it places too much responsibility on the user to manually administer the system | 12:58 |
| lsuactiafner | unlike windows linux offers many alternatives. | 12:58 |

| djm62 | who wants to be a "power user" with a broken machine? | 01:00 |

| lsuactiafner | and encouraging ppl to do as i do.. | 01:01 |
| Burgundavia | in any case, this dicussion has dragged on long enough | 01:01 |
| lsuactiafner | if apt-get fails em i suggest an alternative | 01:01 |
| Burgundavia | #ubuntu is for helping people, and the ubuntu way is not to use source | 01:01 |

| Loki_VA | socomm, i use msn to talk to winblowz ppl, I've been using linux for like 8 years | 04:19 |
| starla | i went and watched part of stargate and came back and it was partway done. | 04:19 |
| socomm | Well I'd suggest switching to different IM services, maybe one that's OSS or has open standards. | 04:20 |
| socomm | Jabber maybe? | 04:20 |
| Loki_VA | starla, interesting.. perhaps a update is in order? | 04:20 |
| likkashot | where can I get gnomebaker | 04:20 |

| IIIEars | ac_ - all i can suggest is md5summing the disk. - unfortuneatly, a single read error (dust, fingerprint) will give you a bad number on an otherwise good CD. | 04:40 |

| Nard | no picture | 05:36 |
| Razor-X | ChrisCF: one hand has all the vowels on the home row, the other hand has the most used consonants and consonant pairs | 05:36 |
| jim_ | could it be: sudo edit ...? | 05:36 |
| ialexei | OK folks I have a question. I am a first time Ubuntu user. I noticed that Ubuntu is running the PostFix deamon as a service (starts at bootup). Why ? | 05:36 |
| FR500 | Nard, did you just wake ur comp up from hibernation? | 05:36 |
| Razor-X | the second most used consonants, and punctuation is kept on the row above the home row, because it's easier to reach up than it is down | 05:36 |
| Nard | yes | 05:36 |
| ialexei | Why do I need this ? | 05:36 |

| ChrisCF | whereas if I were using two different keyboard layouts, I'd be pretty screwed if I tried to touch-type | 05:39 |

| KrakensDen | thr1ce, I started with woody, then used Slack for two years | 05:53 |
| thr1ce | KrakensDen, try installing crux | 05:53 |
| cthulfuego | How is the woody installer an installer from hell? | 05:53 |
| cthulfuego | the *only* hard bit if the reading you need to do. | 05:54 |
| ialexei | cthu..Sorry another silly q. I wanted to add 'bum' (the services manager) to the system menu. How do i do taht ? | 05:54 |
| KrakensDen | it's far too verbose | 05:54 |
| KrakensDen | well | 05:54 |
| cthulfuego | ialexei: 'sudo apt-get install bum' | 05:54 |
| thr1ce | crux is all text | 05:54 |
| ialexei | I have the pacakge installed | 05:54 |
| KrakensDen | it was my first experience with linux | 05:54 |
| KrakensDen | so it was far too verbose :P | 05:54 |
| thr1ce | you chroot into kernel source and compile your own, write your own configs | 05:54 |
| ialexei | But I dont get the icon | 05:54 |

| TokenBad | anyone know how to get wmv to play on ubuntu? | 05:55 |
| ialexei | I can run bum , but its just that it wud be nice if I could have it run from the system menu | 05:55 |
| KrakensDen | you probably need to download the win32 codecs | 05:55 |
| cthulfuego | I don't even want to think about how much power is wasted on compile-from-scratch distros that ALL run with the EXACT same setup. | 05:55 |

| ubotu | I guess restricted is http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/RestrictedFormats | 05:55 |
| KrakensDen | cthulfuego, it's a crime | 05:55 |
| robitaille | TokenBad, totem with win32 codecs | 05:55 |
| TokenBad | I installed the win32 codecs | 05:55 |
| cthulfuego | gentoo kills trees | 05:55 |
| fivre | hey, if I have "/dev/hda2 /media/windows vfat umask=000 0 0 | 05:55 |
| TokenBad | and it will not play it | 05:55 |
| paxon | I plenty of ram and set 2gb to swap when I installed. Can I reduce swap, or is it wise to just leave things alone? | 05:56 |
| paxon | have* | 05:56 |
| thr1ce | fivre, looks good | 05:56 |
| thr1ce | might want rw,umask=000 | 05:56 |
| TokenBad | will not play any wmv yet | 05:56 |
| cthulfuego | paxon: Just moutn half the swap as /tmp or something via tmpfs. | 05:56 |
| fivre | I did it as per the ubuntu guide | 05:56 |
| paxon | cthulfuego, thanks. | 05:56 |
| thr1ce | fivre, I do vfat rw,umask=000 | 05:56 |
| fivre | but it appears to be instructions for a logical partition | 05:56 |
| thr1ce | and do 1 0 | 05:56 |
| thr1ce | at the end | 05:56 |
| robitaille | TokenBad, have you installed "totem-xine"? Sometimes it makes totem play more things. | 05:57 |
| === cary__ [~cary___@user-12hcv7n.cable.mindspring.com] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| cthulfuego | thr1ce: No, "0 0" at the end | 05:57 |
| TokenBad | no | 05:57 |
| TokenBad | what is totem-xine? | 05:57 |
| thr1ce | for logical? | 05:57 |
| thr1ce | no | 05:57 |
| fivre | what is it for extended FAT partition? | 05:57 |
| thr1ce | i have always used 1 0 | 05:57 |
| robitaille | TokenBad, totem-xine tells totem to use the xine library for playbacks. Sometimes it works better. | 05:59 |
| TokenBad | yeah | 05:59 |
| TokenBad | it seems to work now | 05:59 |
| TokenBad | but another question | 05:59 |
| TokenBad | what plugins would be needed to play wmv in mozilla? | 06:00 |
| fivre | changing it to 1 0 gets the same error | 06:00 |

| bob2 | brett: I don't know about the gui tools, the correct fix would be adding a gateway line in /etc/network/interfaces | 07:32 |
| bob2 | ac_: it's not on the install disk | 07:32 |
| ac_ | hm... a combination of rm and cat should probably do the trick | 07:32 |
| flankk | Slomp, yeah, it's basically debian with synaptic, more recent packages, and a friendly user base. | 07:32 |
| bob2 | well, you had sed and nano | 07:32 |
| parabolize | Slomp: .deb can be done with dpkg or aptitude or Synaptic. | 07:32 |

| poningru | slomp go into #ubuntuforums | 07:35 |

| brett | bob2: It should be that way, yes, but it's not working that way for me. | 07:35 |
| JDahl | flankk, maybe I am just a bit slow, but you seemed to suggest that Ubuntu included packages not found in Debian to make it more userfriendly | 07:36 |
| flankk | Slomp, it is desktop-oriented for the end-user.. sudo su if you must | 07:36 |
| flankk | JDahl, not at all | 07:36 |
| Slomp | flankk: I don't understand.. I've been using su since I was a teenager. Why can't I su? | 07:36 |
| bob2 | Slomp: wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo | 07:36 |
| bob2 | Slomp: you can of course su if you want to | 07:36 |

| bob2 | brett: hrm, ok | 07:39 |
| Slomp | he called me up asking what's wrong with Su | 07:40 |
| bob2 | brett: I think commenting out the last 3 lines will fix it | 07:40 |
| Lafitte- | Slomp, SU might not work if root didnt have password ;) set it it works | 07:40 |
| brett | bob2: actually... someone suggested that would solve my problem! so, it doesn't work either way. | 07:40 |
| Slomp | Lafitte- root does have a pass, we just didn't know to type sudo su | 07:40 |
| Lafitte- | Slomp, dont need sudo | 07:40 |
| bob2 | Slomp: if root has a password, "su" will work fine | 07:40 |
| bob2 | if you didn't set one, su will obviously not work | 07:40 |
| Lafitte- | Slomp, can su just fine | 07:41 |
| Slomp | hm. | 07:41 |
| JohnnyRotten | that changed some fonts i wanted but my menu fonts are still way too big | 07:41 |
| flankk | Slomp, the root account is disabled by default, like it says in the installer. you can either 'sudo su' or enable the root account, up to you. | 07:41 |
| Slomp | I get it. | 07:41 |
| Lafitte- | JohnnyRotten, is all i can find as well other then choosing different theme and the use advanced to edit some menu stuff | 07:41 |
| Slomp | Ok, that's a little wierd, but not bad. | 07:42 |
| Lafitte- | brb baby needs me | 07:42 |
| bob2 | brett: well, that should bring it up for you, I don't know why it wouldn't work | 07:42 |
| bob2 | brett: maybe someone on the user list might know | 07:42 |
| Slomp | OK, the Ubuntu installer didn't ask me if I wanted development tools. it just installed. How do I "select all the "base" development tools" ? | 07:42 |
| Slomp | Without installing them -all- ? | 07:42 |
| Slomp | I got no GCC | 07:42 |
| Lafitte- | Slomp, Ubuntu is LInux for Humans not guru for say only so root was changed around a bit | 07:43 |
| fabbione | Slomp: apt-get install build-essential | 07:43 |
| bob2 | Slomp: install the build-essential package | 07:43 |

| JohnnyRotten | bob2 do you know how to make the fonts in the menu in xchat and where the time is diplayed and applications places system is? | 07:44 |
| Lafitte- | Slomp, there is an option to select packages later if you do a server install then redo the setup it will ask what typ eyou want | 07:44 |
| bob2 | brett: I don't know what the gui tool does, unfortunately | 07:44 |

| Lighty | microhaxo: Open a terminal, go to Edit -> Current Profile, click the Effects tab, and change the Background setting to Transparent background. A slider below that lets you set how transparent you want it. | 09:13 |
| cthulfuego | !ICS is <reply> To share your intenet connection on eth0 with a LAN on eth1, make sure you don't have a firewall that interferes. Then run: iptables -t nat -A OUTPUT -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE; sysctl -w net.ipv4.ip_forward=1 Ask me about <simple firewall> | 09:13 |

| Pengo | So I still dont know how to change the splash screen | 09:15 |

| cthulfuego | !simple firewall is iptables A INPUT -i lo -j ACCEPT; iptables -P INPUT DROP; iptables -A INPUT -m state --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT You will then need rules to allow incoming traffic for each service you want to run.

| cazabam | microhaxo: recompile kernel? sounds a bit fishy | 01:44 |
| Seveas | tecywiz121: for java: download the .bin file from java.sun.com, apt-get install java-package, chmod +x [the .bin file] , make-jpkg [the bin file] , dpkg -i [the generated .deb file] | 01:44 |
| cazabam | tecywiz121: check ubuntuguide.com and see the appendix - full instructions | 01:44 |
| tecywiz121 | ok thx | 01:44 |
| Seveas | cazabam, ubuntuguide sucks wrt java... | 01:45 |
| cazabam | worked for me | 01:45 |
| SS2 | seveas what should i replace? i just type in /media/forxtern to umount cause its mouted there | 01:45 |
| SS2 | mounted | 01:45 |
| Seveas | the only way java will continue working even with breezy is using make-jpkg | 01:45 |

| cazabam | seveas: oh. just says add backports and so the right 'apt-get install' - I followed them just yesterday and it worked :) | 01:47 |
| Seveas | cazabam, if you do it 'the ubuntuguide way', things will break if you start using multple versions of java or gcj (gcj will be introduced as obligatory in Breezy) | 01:47 |
| Seveas | cazabam, these instructions are fine :) | 01:47 |
| Seveas | the backports repo has a good package | 01:47 |

| Slomp | What is the point of running Kubuntu? The whole point of Ubuntu is that everything's setup nicely and it works with a pretty interface... If you're running Kubuntu, you might as well just run debian and select your own packages | 02:03 |

| Slomp | or run Mandrake | 02:03 |

| kestas | pfp: hmm that sounds like what I need actually | 03:20 |
| cazabam | stjepan: just a guess... chmod +x ./leds ? | 03:20 |
| kestas | pfp: the server which runs samba atm doesnt go down, I just want something which behaves just like a normal part of your filesystem and doesnt have any odd quirks | 03:21 |
| kestas | smb has a bunch | 03:21 |
| stjepan | cazabam, yes | 03:21 |
| stjepan | oh | 03:21 |
| stjepan | ./leds: relocation error: ./leds: symbol __libc_stack_end, version GLIBC_2.1 not defined in file ld-linux.so.2 with link time reference | 03:21 |
| kestas | like I cant rename things in nautilus, it just lets you rename for 1 sec then closes the rename input thing | 03:21 |
| kestas | and sometimes files just dont show up | 03:21 |
| cazabam | kestas: nfs is good for 'long term' network shares and is treated as a mount - this is also possible with samba although it is more painful | 03:21 |
| kestas | damn annoying | 03:21 |
| PhantomFreak | Having trouble with ScummVM in Ubuntu... I used the Synaptic Package Manager version, but it isn't the latest version... But when I download the latest version from ScummVM.org, in a debian binary it wont install. How can I get the latest version to work? | 03:22 |
| jbailey | stjepan: Err. How did you get that error? | 03:22 |
| pfp | kestas: yep, and smb isn't really native to unix... | 03:22 |
| kestas | hmm guess Ill look into nfs then | 03:22 |
| cazabam | pfp: samba is native to unix, even though smb isn't | 03:23 |

| jbailey | demantik: You shouldn't need to reinstall, usually you can recover with apt-get --reinstall install FOO | 03:47 |
| demantik | jbaily - Checking for GLib (GModule) >= 2.2.0... why? | 03:47 |
| jbailey | demantik: where FOO is the package that you think you've broken somehow. | 03:47 |
| demantik | ah ok | 03:47 |
| jbailey | demantik: What are you compiling by hand? =) | 03:47 |
| cazabam | jbailey: you might have a point there... I never did get libstdc++ or locales to work ever again... | 03:48 |

| cdc | hi people i have been using Debian Sarge for the past one year and i am really impressed with it but today i got 10 sets of Ubuntu X86 CDS i am just thinking of installing it | 05:35 |
| Fabian | pfp, cu in two minutes in windows! | 05:35 |
| cazabam | devil: there isn't one :) not specifically, anyway. The basic install will give you a functional machine. After that, it's into synaptic and pick what you want. | 05:35 |
| cdc | i just want to know whether Ubuntu would be better than Debian Sarge | 05:35 |
| Choubaka | Drako60: right. | 05:35 |
| bigfoot1 | i can't find it, Nermal. I might be blind. | 05:35 |
| Nermal | bigfoot1, though it does appear to be a drivel christian site | 05:35 |
| Choubaka | Drako60: I don't know how to fix that though :/ | 05:35 |
| catfox | devil, wget could be good. but how will i tell it to get certain dependancies? | 05:35 |
| reka | catfox: you can use a normal browser to download the .deb packages and then install them manually. that's going to be messy. though if you have a program that has a lot of dependencies. | 05:35 |
| tunes | hi,,I found a package to enable supermount ( automount/umount) and wondering why its not the default now, ,,,,,and if its being considered to be part of ubuntu in the future ? ;-)) | 05:35 |
| Nermal | it says "comments (29)" | 05:35 |
| Nermal | hit that | 05:35 |
| bigfoot1 | nermal, where exactly is the link? i did a search on the page for "comment." found nothing relevant. | 05:35 |
| cdc | infact i have been a KDE user but for the past few days i ve switched to Gnome . is Ubuntu better than Debian Sarge? | 05:35 |

| jbwiv | gentlemen: a package that libsdl1.2-dev depends on, xlibmesa-glu-dev, has inexplicably disappears from the Ubuntu Hoary apt repositories. This prevents me from being able to install libsdl1.2-dev, which depends on this. Fortunately, I had already installed this package weeks ago on my work Ubuntu machine.

| concept10 | ren0, Yes | 07:07 |
| GNULinuxer | lxuser, sudo apt-get install libstdc++ | 07:08 |
| concept10 | ren0, that is you can copy with one burner | 07:08 |
| c_rodge | how can i download the codecs so i can view avi files in gnome | 07:08 |
| prego | Codeman7, perhaps you shoud disable acpi for your laptop. | 07:08 |
| ren0 | So is it just a matter of inserting the cd click on copy...then insert the cd-r when k3b asks for it? | 07:08 |

| concept10 | ren0, yes. it copies the cd to the harddrive then back to the blank | 07:09 |
| prego | ren0, I never copy audio CDs, I transfer the songs to the hardrive with cdparanoia and then I burn a new CD afterwards. | 07:09 |

| HappyFool | jbroome: i meant trix's question, not you ;) | 10:18 |
| tritium | Trix, if the new version is not a security fix, it won't be updated until the next release, unless you decide to run the development release (e.g. breezy, right now) | 10:18 |
| HappyFool | jbroome: supposed to be funny, nevermind :) | 10:19 |

| lukus001 | if i download the file from the website to my desktop, how can i install it from that? | 10:19 |
| tritium | tecywiz121, install java-package, download Sun's binary installer, use make-jpkg (see docs in /usr/share/doc/java-package) | 10:19 |
| HappyFool | lukus001: try 'apt-cache search jre' -- do you get anything? | 10:19 |

| mcscruff | it is similar | 11:39 |
| exobot | blah, I'll try the 1.2rc of ndiswrapper, g'wan . I dare you to work :P | 11:39 |
| HappyFool | i think it's 'kynaptic' in kde | 11:39 |
| LathropWells | mcscruff - the "alien" command? | 11:39 |
| Stuttergart | djm62: I've never even heard of that. | 11:39 |
