| ninwa | to upgrade all of your packages, use apt-get upgrade | 01:23 |
| HrdwrBoB | kikkoman: sudo apt-get install xine | 01:23 |
| Ubuntu | HrdwrBoB: ok i try that | 01:23 |
| jd_ | yes the apt-get | 01:23 |
| danny | doesnt work | 01:23 |
| HrdwrBoB | ninwa: dist-upgrade is in almost all circumstances better | 01:23 |
| Jesse1 | danny, it does work | 01:23 |
| Danar | kikkoman, it's xine-ui in ubuntu | 01:23 |
| jd_ | give me an example how to do that | 01:23 |
| ninwa | HrdwrBoB, Ah, I wasn't even aware of it, I'm rather new myself, thank you! | 01:23 |
| absinthe_os | danny, what version of Windows is it? | 01:23 |
| ninwa | So as HrdwrBoB said, use dist-upgrade then :o) | 01:23 |
| danny | 98 | 01:24 |
| kikkoman | i installed xine-ui but i don't see it =/ | 01:24 |
| ninwa | kikkoman, Not all applications will create launchers in the menu for you | 01:24 |
| Danar | kikkoman, run xine | 01:24 |
| danny | its 98 | 01:24 |
| Jesse1 | danny, .... i'd stick with ubuntu | 01:24 |
| ninwa | kikkoman, so in short, use a terminal to launch it, or create a launcher on your panel | 01:24 |
| absinthe_os | lol Jesse1 | 01:24 |
| danny | nah id rather not have to mess with crossover or wine | 01:24 |
| ninwa | by right clicking the panel, create launcher.. etc | 01:24 |
| danny | they are annoying as hell | 01:24 |
| Danar | danny, you know, you can run a lot of windows apps on linux with wine or cedega... | 01:24 |
| absinthe_os | danny, how so? | 01:24 |
| thenuke | danny: boot to dos with that windows CD | 01:25 |
| thenuke | and use fdisk to delete all partitions | 01:25 |
| kikkoman | ok thanks guys its working ;) | 01:25 |
| Jesse1 | danny, download partition magic | 01:25 |
| ninwa | danny, Like I said earlier, pop in the Windows CD and use it to repartition and format your drive, it's a very straightforward installer. | 01:25 |
| thenuke | and then create new one for windows | 01:25 |
| danny | ok w/e then | 01:25 |
| absinthe_os | He was sort of testing my nerves | 01:25 |
| absinthe_os | =) | 01:25 |
| Jesse1 | lol | 01:25 |
| ninwa | Well, everyone here seemed convinced that Linux was for him and demanded he dual-booted or reconsidered. | 01:25 |

| absinthe_os | goldfish, What's Fluxbox like? | 01:27 |
| Jesse1 | Cynetix, what is the problem your having | 01:28 |
| Cynetix | absinthe_os: I have Ubuntu installed and it goes through, states it will reboot inot Ubuntu but it never happens | 01:28 |
| Danar | kikkoman, oh, well that's why | 01:28 |
| Cynetix | No bootloader, just back into XP | 01:28 |
| goldfish | absinthe_os: very fast, takes a little bit to get it looking nice, i could never go back to gnome after it. | 01:28 |
| absinthe_os | Cynetix, Sorry I'm not understanding | 01:28 |
| Danar | kikkoman, save it somewhere and play it in xine, then you could make it full-screen. though it might not look so great | 01:28 |
| jd_ | ok guys i have the updates how do install them | 01:28 |
| Cynetix | Ok. I installed it, and it completed. Ejected CD, said it would reboot into Ubuntu. Instead, it booted into XP. | 01:28 |
| jd_ | manuallhy | 01:28 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | does anyone know of a way to fix my system if i broke it by running dist-upgrade? | 01:29 |
| absinthe_os | goldfish, Ok, I'll apt it and check it out =) | 01:29 |
| kikkoman | hmm cause when i don't make it full screen, part of the movie is cut off | 01:29 |
| absinthe_os | cynetix, maybe the GRUB installer didn't work? | 01:29 |
| ninwa | jd_, Explain further, I thought your question was answered earlier. To upgrade/install pckages I highly suggest using synaptic package manager. | 01:29 |
| Cynetix | absinthe_os: I guess. I told it to install Grub to MBR but no boot options, nada | 01:29 |

| absinthe_os | Cynetix, Are you in Windows right now? | 01:30 |
| Danar | BROKEN_LADDER, in synaptic you can force version... | 01:30 |
| CarlFK | danny, probably what you really want to do is isntall something else over the top of it | 01:30 |
| absinthe_os | Cynetix, same pc? | 01:30 |
| thenuke | jd_: apt-get update updates and apt-get upgrade upgraders | 01:30 |
| goldfish | kong0: what is it? | 01:30 |
| EvanCarroll | BROKEN_LADDER: if you don't run apt-get clean, you still have the old debs, and you can dpkg -i them | 01:30 |
| kong0 | i need to install it | 01:30 |
| Cynetix | absinthe_os: However, let me preface that by saying it's installed on the second drive in my system on a SATA controller. | 01:30 |
| kong0 | its cedega | 01:30 |
| Jesse1 | kong0, you need to extract them then install | 01:30 |

| ninwa | kong0, decompress it using tar -xvzf and then read the installation directions | 01:31 |
| ninwa | read tar --help for what each option does | 01:31 |
| Danar | kong0, .tgz is a compressed/zipped file | 01:31 |
| absinthe_os | cynetix, All I can suggest is trying to re-do the installation of Ubuntu | 01:31 |
| Danar | you have to extract it first | 01:31 |

| === carl is now known as CarlK | ||
| Cynetix | absinthe_os: Hmm. How do I do that or do you have a guide for it? | 01:35 |

| kong0 | nautilus? | 01:35 |
| Danar | the file manager | 01:35 |

| absinthe_os | Jesse1, Right now ubuntu uses ESD as it's sound server, and I guess it's kind of buggy | 01:51 |

| kong0 | ok NOW i got it workign | 01:56 |
| Razor-X | ninwa: why reccomend a GUI utility? | 01:56 |

| Razor-X | isn't it easy to aptitude search? | 01:56 |
| Razor-X | or sudo apt-cache search | 01:56 |
| absinthe_os | I like Ubuntu but it's somewhat sluggish. I'm a crazy minimalist | 01:56 |

| aty | i know this is a really stupid question, but how do you excute a .bin file which is a self extracting shell script, because i am trying to install a jave runtime enviorment | 01:57 |
| absinthe_os | Razor-X, For the most part yes | 01:57 |
| aty | ? | 01:57 |
| kong0 | well thats strange cus it isnt.. | 01:57 |
| Razor-X | absinthe_os: then, use Debian proper | 01:57 |

| absinthe_os | Razor-X, What is "proper"? | 01:57 |
| aty | ohhh ok | 01:57 |
| Jesse1 | kong0, where could have it gone? | 01:57 |
| Razor-X | if you don't want an X manager, but still want multitasking and desktop environmentns, install twin | 01:58 |
| aty | il try that, thanks | 01:58 |
| dooglus | aty: "sh sdfsdfsd.bin" | 01:58 |
| Razor-X | absinthe_os: a figure of speech | 01:58 |

| thenuke | absinthe_os: it definately is sluggish if you have old PC | 01:58 |
| Razor-X | but, if you want X, I suggest something like TWM or Ratpoison, or something | 01:58 |
| ninwa | Razor-X, It's more manageable in Synaptic IMHO. It's a matter of preference, if you can't agree with that, then well... :o) | 01:58 |

| Razor-X | ninwa: GUI itself is a bit clunky, in my opinion | 01:58 |

| Danar | kong0, seriously, it shouldn't be to difficult to follow the instructions. just read carefully, and copy & paste the commands so you don't make mistakes | 02:27 |
| Lafitte- | Octane, maybe the term skips but i think it is the software glitch not hardware | 02:27 |
| kong0 | well i paste the commands press enter and nothing happens | 02:27 |
| Octane | Lafitte-, i dunno, my kaffeine just crashes, i cant get shit to play in xine and xine-engine in amarok also crashes | 02:28 |
| Danar | kong0, where'd you paste it? | 02:28 |
| kong0 | in terminal | 02:28 |

| kong0 | im taking one line at a time | 02:30 |
| Octane | Lafitte-, i think my issue may be a sound issue | 02:30 |
| robertj | I looked at Office Depot's $500 machine, and its a pretty good deal, but I couldn't find squat about user experiences and the display wasn't great and I would have had to up the memory myself | 02:30 |
| Danar | kong0, no, i mean output. it can have effects without output | 02:31 |

| Octane | not as many newbies | 02:31 |
| Octane | and at least the ubuntu newbies are not totally retarded | 02:32 |
| Octane | (myself including) | 02:32 |
| Octane | included* | 02:32 |
| Jesse1 | kong0, just keep going untill you finsih all the commands and if you followed the correctly it will work | 02:32 |
| kong0 | alright | 02:32 |
| kong0 | its an awful lot of cammands thou | 02:33 |
| Jesse1 | kong0, well it needs them for a reason | 02:33 |
| Danar | well, gl. i'm out | 02:33 |
| kong0 | would it do any difference if i type them in the root terminal? | 02:33 |
| robertj | Octane: actually, the Ubuntu newbies are probably not able to IRC | 02:34 |
| Octane | anyone here successfully install wine lately on an amd64 box | 02:34 |
| Octane | robertj, lol | 02:34 |
| robertj | Anyone buy a laptop recently that they are happy with? | 02:34 |
| ninwa | Laptops are too pricey for me to be happy with any of them. | 02:35 |
| Jesse1 | kong0, what are u putting in to the terminal? | 02:35 |
| ninwa | That plus the inability to customize makes me squeemish. | 02:35 |
| Octane | robertj, Dell's are great | 02:35 |
| robertj | ninwa: They had a decent one for $500 today at Office Depot | 02:35 |
| ninwa | I wonder what the specs were. | 02:35 |
| robertj | Octane: I'm sellling my Dell tomorrow, tis been good but its aging | 02:35 |
| Octane | anyone here have a palm pilot they're happy with that works with Kontact | 02:35 |
| robertj | ninwa: 1.4 gig Celeron with 256 megs of ram, DVD/CDRW and internal A/b/g | 02:35 |
| robertj | maybe just b/g, can't remember | 02:35 |
| === SlackFart2 [~el_fart0@soundscape.demon.nl] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| robertj | but the display wasn't great, and I couldn't find out from anyone wether mobile celeron supported speed steppign | 02:36 |
| Danar | kong0, here's a tip. ubuntu is based on debian, so if it says something should work for debian, it'll prolly work for ubuntu as well | 02:36 |
| ninwa | if only it were 512 mb of RAM it'd be a good steal I think | 02:36 |
| concept10 | Octane, I had it work with Kontact before | 02:36 |
| robertj | also it had a bajillion mail in rebates | 02:36 |
| ThE__OnE | how do i format | 02:36 |
| Danar | just read the pages. gl | 02:36 |

| === Octane is thinking about buying an ipod but doesnt want to get what everyone has | ||
| Jesse1 | ThE__OnE, you cant formate i drive your currently using | 02:37 |

| Octane | LOL | 02:38 |
| Octane | my frend got an m:robe | 02:38 |
| Lafitte- | how do i kill mplayer if it is locked up ? | 02:38 |
| Octane | the olympus one | 02:38 |
| Jesse1 | Lafitte-, killall esd | 02:38 |
| concept10 | bbl, going to get some food | 02:39 |
| ThE__OnE | i know that, i mean cant you do a comand for it to format when it reboots | 02:39 |
| scott | Octane: any good? I like the simplicity of the ipod | 02:39 |
| === magog [~magog@68-168-15-129.miamfl.adelphia.net] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| Lafitte- | Jesse1, doesnt take the screens away | 02:39 |
| Octane | scott, its really attractive, its pretty usable, but i think the ipod still wins. | 02:39 |
| Octane | i only saw the m:robe camera version | 02:39 |
| Octane | not the smaller one | 02:39 |
| robertj | Octane: I recommend the shuffle to most everyone | 02:39 |
| Lafitte- | how do i see the running process ? | 02:39 |
| robertj | my sister bought one today. She was looking at armbands for her older rev iPod so she could go to the gym and I was like "Don't do that." | 02:40 |
| Octane | robertj, one of my coworkers got it the other day, i helped her with it and she was jubilant | 02:40 |
| Octane | its nice | 02:40 |
| robertj | It's the only piece of iCrap that I think is worth the money | 02:40 |
| Octane | but too little space for me | 02:40 |
| Jesse1 | Lafitte-, killall -i i think | 02:40 |
| robertj | that and the iBooks are good notebooks if a bit pricey | 02:40 |
| Jesse1 | no killall -l | 02:40 |
| Octane | i have lots of audio books and The Teaching Company lecture s-- thats why i want an mp3 player | 02:40 |

| magog | what does it have new in 2.4.3? | 02:44 |
| robertj | just curious | 02:44 |
| ninwa | BrianHH, You'll probably have to get it from the website. | 02:44 |
| ninwa | The repositories maintain stable releases, not bleeding edge :) | 02:44 |
| BrianHH | robertj: I just wanted to upgrade is all. :) I tried compiling from source on the xchat site, but I'm getting too many compiling errors. I thought I'd make life easy on myself by having synaptic take care of the dependencies. | 02:45 |
| robertj | BrianHH: I think you can apt-get install build-deps xchat or something like that | 02:46 |
| robertj | or maybe its apt-src with build-deps | 02:46 |
| === lakin [~lakin@dsl-hill-66-18-228-60-cgy.nucleus.com] has joined #ubuntu | ||

| kong0 | lol well all that crap didnt work and now im pissed | 02:47 |
| robertj | Brian: well get the depts for 2.4.1 and then see if 2.4.3 will compile cleanly | 02:47 |
| CarlK | what would cause my IP to go away? | 02:47 |
| robertj | apt-get build-dep xchat should be a good start | 02:47 |
| robertj | CarlK: Your ISP lease could be up? | 02:47 |
| CarlK | as in, ifconfig doesn't show an IP, and suddenly I can't ping the AP | 02:47 |
| Octane | are there lots of kubuntu users in here | 02:47 |
| robertj | CarlK: crappy AP firmware? | 02:47 |
| CarlK | robertj, "renewal in 281365 seconds." but it happens after about 500 secconds | 02:48 |
| BrianHH | robertj: Okay, thanks. :) | 02:48 |
| CarlK | robertj, and my local IP shouldn't go away, right? | 02:48 |

| mae | robertj: you put someone on linux vs windows .. a complete beginner, with broadband internet.. the windows user will accumulate malware/spyware if they download stuff.. or just by using ie. on linux, even if there is security exploits, your running in your underpriv'd user jail.. software can't mess with anything but your per-user setup. if it gets messed up all you have to do is rm -rf ~/ && rm -rf ~/.* | 03:24 |
| benplaut | john__: opened as Read-Only? | 03:24 |
| Danar | kong0, you wouldn't get a windows virus on linux | 03:24 |
| kong0 | nice | 03:24 |

| mae | robertj: the largest security risk is an inexperienced pc user.. and 90 percent of that problem is eliminated in linux because any programs that run have limited access. | 03:28 |
| robertj | mae: or because there aren't any programs that most users would want to run | 03:29 |
| Danar | mae, and that last 10% is amplified by people running things as root :p | 03:29 |
| robertj | it doesn't matter if they are running a root or not | 03:29 |
| robertj | it just means that malware authors will ask for the root password and people will enter it | 03:29 |
| mae | robertj: this is mainly because most software is written for windows, has nothing to do with the viability.. for my example lets just assume the correct software is available.. linux was designed far better for security that windows xp was.. | 03:30 |
| Guerin | robertj: yes, it does. If a box is rooted, you have to reinstall from scratch. If only a local user is compromised, you only need to nuke that user and restore from backup. | 03:30 |
| Guerin | robertj: oh, i see. | 03:30 |
| zyth | sadly, robertj is right. lol | 03:31 |

| mae | robertj: the same backing up would be required in windows, obviously nothing is perfect; I am merely arguing that an inexperienced user has a much better chance of keeping a linux system intact than a windows one.. now they may not be able to get the programs they need i.e. because they are used to downloading and easily installing programs like on windows.. but that isn't relevant to my point. | 03:34 |

| zyth | found it in syunaptic | 03:34 |

| robertj | not perfect, but good enough for 99.9% of the people | 03:34 |
| mae | robertj: i used to work at a pc store and we made some money from selling computers and computer parts but like 75 percent of our income was service and probably 60 percent of that income was os reformatting of windows | 03:35 |

| nalioth | mdipi: i have 5 gb for ubuntu and the rest is hfs+ (not the new journaling type, tho) | 04:48 |
| X7C | lease time on dhcp server is on secinds or minutes or someting else? | 04:48 |
| mdipi | nalioth: how did you partition your drive? | 04:48 |
| bob2 | X7C: depends on the dhcp server. should be on the order of hours | 04:48 |

| X7C | anybody using that one? | 04:49 |
| nalioth | bob2: so i cant figure (since its all GPL) why it doesnt work here in ubuntu | 04:49 |
| bob2 | nalioth: if it doesn't work on ubuntu, and it's not because of the hal bug, please file a bug | 04:49 |
| bob2 | it's not all GPL | 04:49 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | bob2 if acct is from ubuntu, then why doesn't the version say ubuntu?! | 04:49 |
| bob2 | and it's presumably because yellow dog doesn't use hal yet | 04:49 |
| mdipi | it worked fine for me ealrier | 04:49 |
| mdipi | before i f'ed it up | 04:49 |
| nalioth | mdipi: software wise? i used OSX Boot CD Disk Utility, installed osx and then ubuntu | 04:49 |
| bob2 | atool: ah, ok | 04:49 |
| Darkfusion | yeah, yellow dog is still developed. They now have a 64 bit port for G5 | 04:49 |
| nalioth | mdipi: if you have ipartition, you can save the osx install | 04:49 |

| BROKEN_LADDER | bob2 that's fine. | 04:57 |

| nalioth | mdipi: you want a /boot (where yaboot will live <in hfs>) and a ext3 space for your root FS | 05:52 |

| tsume | Amaranth: 2k and XP are just versions of NT with added libs | 06:55 |
| Amaranth | tsume: But they are enough different that apps that need XP generally don't run on NT or XP | 06:55 |
| Amaranth | tsume: They're backward compatible, yes. | 06:55 |

| bob2 | LordKahless: black and white dots? | 06:55 |

| dr_willis | bl4cktone, its been eye candy for years. :P | 07:54 |

| bob2 | microhaxo: I don't know what "ftp" you're talking about | 12:13 |
| microhaxo | i said | 12:13 |
| bob2 | I hear gftp can do ftp/ssl, tho | 12:13 |
| microhaxo | its my prif ftp | 12:13 |
| microhaxo | anyway | 12:13 |
| bob2 | "prif" is not a word | 12:13 |

| bob2 | I have no idea what a "TOPSITE Mk" is, either | 12:14 |
| microhaxo | you dont need to know | 12:14 |
| nubbe | GNULinuxer, I can mount and read most of it, just a few files that has errors, and did under xp too, but I just didn't realise that before, since I could read them with xp (that is no more) | 12:14 |

| Seveas | ernesto_, are you using backports/other unofficial repositories or smeg? | 03:03 |

| Wimpie | I need to recompile the kernel because of swsusp. I installed 2.6.11 package but patch on suspend2 site is not very good. | 03:04 |
| cazabam | james: transcode is probably your best bet, but it's a pain to install | 03:04 |
| ernesto_ | seveas, yes... i have used unnoficial repositories... i changed my repositories list | 03:04 |
| Wimpie | is there an 2.6.11-xxx package ? and where can I find which packages for 2.6.11 are available ? | 03:04 |
| Seveas | ernesto_, that has probably caused this bug to appear | 03:05 |

| cazabam | james: hmmm... according to the showshifter website it uses MJPEG and/or DIVX... | 03:05 |
| Danar | ernesto_, file a bug report, use synaptic until it's updated with a fix :p | 03:05 |
| cazabam | james: try mplayer - if that supports it, then transcode can use mplayer as a decoding filter :) | 03:05 |

| ThE__OnE | i dont know what they call it, but once i saw a video of a wallpaper moving, any ideas on what it is called? | 03:06 |

| kcburyshaker | danar i see it thank you and also thanks for making a noob feel welcome lay off me please | 04:14 |
| Thanatermesis | ok | 04:14 |
| mindspin | it works only if you started gedit with sudo gedit... | 04:15 |
| Danar | kcburyshaker, ? "thanks for making a noob feel welcome" seems to conflict with "lay off me please" | 04:15 |
| Thanatermesis | any person understand how to works the "x-refresh" autodetection in liveCD mode ? this is a work of xorg or an script from init scripts ? | 04:15 |
| kong0 | and i have a comment to all "leets" here...perhaps if u guys wasnt so cynical u wouldn't have to explain stuff 10 times | 04:15 |

| Seveas | nJess, if /dev/hdc is your cdrom drive (secondary slave), this looks good | 07:56 |
| bob2 | nalioth: you certainly don't want to change it, though | 07:56 |
| nJess | it is | 07:57 |
| nalioth | Seveas: yes it is, and i'm tired of being 'unknown powerpc" what/where to i change the line so i become whatever | 07:57 |
| Seveas | njess, can you please paste your complete /etc/fstab on the pastebin | 07:57 |
| nJess | where is that? | 07:57 |

| foxi1 | another question... my Notebook CPU is chaning its throttle state very often! but i cannot set it up manually how can i change the cpu scale by myself? | 07:57 |
| Seveas | nalioth, what's wrong with powerpc-unknown-linux-gnu..? | 07:57 |
| battlecat | nalioth: You've been a big help in the last few weeks. I have been asking around if there is a place to download CD images for packages. I will be going to dial up agian here soon and would perfer to not download packages when I use dialup. | 07:58 |
| nalioth | bob2: so its ok to compile for "unknown powerpc" instead of ppc740 or whatever? | 07:58 |

| Seveas | davidubu, first of all it's linux source, and second of all: you probably want linux-headers-$(uname -r) for whatever you need | 08:57 |

| karlheg | Anyone have one that works for roger__ to look at? | 10:59 |
| e-head | So essentially, at start up ... grub/lilo reads the kernel, creates the initrd in memory, processes the linuxrc file on said initrd, kernel loads modules needed to access root filesystem, chroot/pivot_root is performed, initrd unloaded from memory, then using hotplug all devices/drivers are loaded and configured ? | 10:59 |
| r0d | nope all are unmuted except the 3d | 10:59 |
| karlheg | I don't use anything but Ubuntu... | 10:59 |

| karlheg | It's not cool for it to not allow you the freedom of choice though. I hope you get it to work. | 11:00 |
