| john_ | yeah, i was at 1024 before... | 12:48 |
| john_ | which file specifies modules to be loaded at boot? | 12:48 |
| gdh | none - 'discover' automatically detects the relevant modules to be loaded | 12:50 |
| gdh | john_: If it worked before, have you tried a proper power-off (with the power cable out for 30 seconds) to ensure your gfx card has fully reset? | 12:51 |
| john_ | @gdh - fbcon and atyfb weren't loaded before i decided to modprobe them.... | 12:51 |
| john_ | yeah, i did. | 12:51 |
| john_ | after modprobe/reboot, they show in lsmod. | 12:51 |
| john_ | isn't that how it's supposed to work? or is modprobe per-session? | 12:52 |
| gdh | modprobe is just per-session | 12:52 |
| gdh | few people need/want framebuffer support | 12:52 |
| gdh | since X does 'its own thing' | 12:52 |
| john_ | no tv-out on my card.... | 12:52 |

| john_ | well...i'm going to try adding those modules to blacklist. we'll see, i guess... | 12:55 |
| gdh | john_: If you run " grep Driver /etc/X11/xorg.conf " do you see 'Driver "ati" ' ? | 12:55 |

| gdh | Am just trying to look at the manpage for options | 12:56 |
| gdh | certainly the framebuffer driver has a 'Mirror' options | 12:56 |
| gdh | which seems to be related to tv out | 12:56 |
| john_ | "ati" framebuffer driver? | 12:56 |
| gdh | no, 'radeonfb' | 12:56 |

| pod | Any idea about the differences? | 01:00 |
| gdh | Fortunately, all of them are supported by the linux DVB driver | 01:00 |
| gdh | look on the card itself for the chip names.. TDA10046 maybe? | 01:00 |
| pod | Yeah, but whats the diff between the different chipsets? | 01:01 |
| gdh | hauppauge change chips based on what's cheap + popular, basically.. they all do the same job, just they change hardware to 'keep it interesting' | 01:02 |

| gdh | john_: It isn't. xorg.conf is the source. | 01:04 |

| john_ | let me ask this...how do i test the framebuffer? | 01:05 |
| nikkia | jonh, got vga= on your kernel boot line ? | 01:05 |
| john_ | because i don't see /dev/fb0 | 01:05 |
| nikkia | tbh, i wouldn't, i've never found the framebuffer worth using | 01:05 |
| liz4rd | is it just me or are the repos down | 01:05 |
| john_ | yeah, i didn't before this happened. | 01:05 |
| nikkia | it locks you to resolutions, and it causes lockups on some cards | 01:05 |
| gdh | I've only played with fb because of VDR / DVB stuff software mpeg2 decoding | 01:07 |
| john_ | xorg.conf is loaded on each startx, right? | 01:07 |

| john_ | i got some output. | 01:16 |
| Witigonen | nikkia, unknown host. | 01:16 |
| nikkia | witi, then its a DNS issue | 01:17 |
| Witigonen | nikkia, but the DNS servers should be assigned automatically via dhcp, right? | 01:17 |
| nikkia | *some* wireless routers return bogus DNS stuff in dhcp requests :/ | 01:17 |
| nikkia | some wired ones too, for that matter | 01:17 |
| Witigonen | nikkia, under DNS on the Network Settings tab of control center, there isn't anything entered. | 01:18 |
| nikkia | witi, that'd be it then | 01:18 |
| nikkia | witi, you can manually put the entries in /etc/resolv.conf, but... | 01:18 |

| nikkia | chances are next time you do a DHCP request, they'll get trashed | 01:18 |

| MrVoid | ok windows xp on the same machine works fine, why isn't ubuntu able to use dhcp? | 01:43 |
| nikkia | gdh, one of the companies i deal with, is looking at iTMS downloads in public places for ipod users, that alone will generate a LOT of traffic | 01:44 |
| gdh | nikkia: Some ADSL / BT Central pipe sounds right for that... | 01:44 |
| nikkia | gdh, you still need BT to put ADSL lines behind NAT | 01:44 |
| nikkia | gdh, there isn't enough IP space to allocate them all 'real' IP addresses | 01:44 |
| GPHemsley | For Slackware, it was suggested (and this is a while back) to type 'ifconfig eth0 up'... Does that apply here? | 01:45 |
| gdh | If you are hosting the BT Central, the IP addressing is entirely up to yourself, yes... | 01:45 |
| gdh | GPHemsley: ifdown eth0 / ifup eth0 | 01:45 |
| nikkia | gdh, getting BT to support IPv6, and using that would be easier, especially since BT *do* support IPv6, they just don't allow anyone access to it | 01:45 |
| gdh | GPHemsley: it's 'aware' of /etc/network/interfaces | 01:45 |
| gdh | nikkia: Yeh, I have the capability to use ipv6 on BT Wholesale ADSL by running a standalone USB modem and use the pppoe userspace tools | 01:46 |
| GPHemsley | gdh: Permission denied | 01:46 |
| gdh | nikkia: But I personally have no need for v6 yet | 01:46 |
| gdh | GPHemsley: prefix with 'sudo' | 01:46 |
| GPHemsley | k | 01:46 |
| nikkia | gdh, no, i mean BT have serious IPv6 infrastructure, hiding behind the 'BTexact' R&D banner | 01:47 |

| gdh | GPHemsley: all stuff like that needs root privs, which is what sudo (pseudo) gives you | 01:47 |
| GPHemsley | gdh: hmm... already configured | 01:47 |
| nikkia | gdh, they just don't seem to want to roll it out | 01:47 |
| gdh | nikkia: Yeh, no need, no demand, no point :) | 01:47 |
| gdh | that's business. | 01:47 |
| nikkia | gdh, yeah, i spose | 01:47 |
| nikkia | gdh, but as i said, i think the demand is *almost* there | 01:47 |
| gdh | they're not the BBC :) | 01:47 |
| gdh | It'll take at least a year or two before v6 becomes a commodity | 01:48 |
| gdh | longer than that for it to transit to a standard feature... | 01:48 |
| === pobstil [~luke@218-101-69-204.dialup.clear.net.nz] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| gdh | and no useful website in the world will want to be v6-only for many many years yet | 01:48 |
| gdh | for fear of losing traffic to legacy sites | 01:48 |
| nikkia | gdh, true | 01:49 |
| gdh | what's the score with Windows and v6 ? when does the support start in the stack? | 01:49 |
| nikkia | not that it'd matter anyway, you'd just see things like NTL's trans-proxy doing auto-IPv4/IPv6 conversion | 01:49 |
| gdh | 2000? XP ? | 01:49 |
| nikkia | gdh, 98 | 01:49 |
| gdh | Seriously? wow. | 01:49 |
| nikkia | 2000 before it was installed by default tho | 01:49 |
| gdh | nikkia: Hah, ntl's 'translucent proxies' are a seperate kettle of fish :) | 01:50 |
| nikkia | 98 requires you to add support from the CD | 01:50 |
| nikkia | gdh, that's one nice thing about IPv6, it completely bypasses NTL's trans-proxies :) | 01:50 |
| gdh | I'm glad I'm on telewest, (not only because TW have no monthly caps...) | 01:50 |
| gdh | the numer of times I had to view websites and manually tack on "?weiruewrouewr" to URLs... | 01:51 |
| nikkia | i use ipv4.sixxs.org to get around IP bans on NTL's proxies :) | 01:51 |
| gdh | just so their fuqn proxy would reload the page properly | 01:51 |

| gdh | the concept of the inevitable ntl / telewest merger / takeover worries me re: monthly caps | 01:52 |
| gdh | I guess I'll just go back to ADSL if it happens :) | 01:52 |
| nikkia | gdh, NTL don't enforce their caps, yet, anyway | 01:52 |
| nikkia | if they start enforcing them, i'll go back to DSL too | 01:53 |
| gdh | I know a couple of guys who got the warning letters and had their accounts suspended for a month | 01:53 |
| nikkia | altho i might give it a month for them to see the max exodus and change their mind :P | 01:53 |
| nikkia | weird, i'm almost constantly BT'ing and i haven't had any letter | 01:53 |
| gdh | ah, no my mistake.. that was because they were doing the 'gold.cm' Motorola SurfBoard hack :) | 01:53 |
| gdh | I mean, if you're going to set your download/upload to 10Mb / 768kb... it's not surprising you're going to get caught | 01:54 |

| gdh | I get full-speed all the time from news.blueyonder.co.uk | 01:55 |
| nikkia | i get full speed on most of my torrents | 01:56 |
| nikkia | but thats because they tend to be small tight-knit community sites | 01:56 |
| gdh | Still infiltratable, still easily trackable :/ | 01:56 |
| nikkia | true | 01:56 |
| gdh | that put me right off it all | 01:56 |

| penguinboy | he is modest | 03:38 |
| GPHemsley | well, for one, the Internet connection won't work | 03:38 |
| GPHemsley | It connects to the LAN, but not to any WAN | 03:38 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | through a roupter/modem? | 03:39 |
| GPHemsley | two routers and a VoIP cable modem :) | 03:39 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | cable? i just got adsl :S | 03:39 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | give me a tic to read up | 03:40 |
| GPHemsley | Now I know I had trouble with the Internet way back when I was first installing Slackware... I remember having to edit some file to add something to startup with the system... IDK if that applies here | 03:40 |
| penguinboy | GPHemsley: transgress can also be a help if you can ever find him in the room | 03:40 |
| GPHemsley | Kamping_Kaiser: I doubt it makes a difference that it's cable, but OK | 03:41 |
| penguinboy | transgress is good with network issues | 03:41 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | does the modem have it's own ip? | 03:41 |
| penguinboy | dhcp | 03:41 |
| penguinboy | more than likely | 03:41 |
| penguinboy | imho | 03:41 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | if it's external he probably hasnt set gateway......... | 03:42 |

| michael | is there a security advantage in not having the root password enabled? | 03:44 |
| deadlyshadow | Does anyone know why Kopete keeps rejecting my MSN password? | 03:44 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | michael yes | 03:44 |
| penguinboy | michael: i think it just makes common sense to have it enabled | 03:44 |
| transgress | penguinboy: whats up? | 03:45 |
| michael | having it enabled or having it disabled? | 03:45 |
| penguinboy | hey hey hey my friend! | 03:45 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | gphemsley, so is your computer running via DHCP or static ip? | 03:45 |
| michael | deadlyshadow, there was a problem with msn authentication recently. upgrade to the latest kde to fix it. | 03:45 |
| GPHemsley | Kamping_Kaiser: The ones that work? DHCP, I think... they're all Windows computers, though | 03:45 |
| penguinboy | transgress how are you doing tonight? | 03:45 |
| michael | I wanted to remove kaffeine, but for some reason, it's artificially being depended on the whole kubuntu desktop | 03:46 |
| michael | why on earth is this? | 03:46 |
| GPHemsley | Kamping_Kaiser: This one I'm on now dual boots XP and Slackware, though | 03:46 |
| GPHemsley | Kamping_Kaiser: And Slackware works, last I tried | 03:46 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | gphemsley, i was wondering about the one that doesnt work. | 03:46 |
| deadlyshadow | Does Kubuntu 5.04 come with the latest version of KDE? | 03:46 |
| GPHemsley | Kamping_Kaiser: I believe I tried both | 03:46 |
| penguinboy | i believe so | 03:46 |
| GPHemsley | on Kubuntu | 03:46 |
| michael | deadlyshadow, no. You have to upgrade afterwards | 03:46 |
| deadlyshadow | o_o | 03:46 |
| michael | kubuntu 5.0.4 comes with kde 3.4 -- the latest is 3.4.1 | 03:46 |
| deadlyshadow | Sso I just go to upgrade? | 03:46 |
| penguinboy | O_o | 03:47 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | gphemsley, try static and set the gateway to your modems ip | 03:47 |

| Kamping_Kaiser | you can use Ubuntu sources, but Debian sources are not recomended | 04:28 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | but you can use them | 04:28 |

| ookii | i'm trying to get this dvd::rip thingie, but if it isn't on an apt source i'll never get it working | 04:34 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | gphemsley, can you try this? open a browser and go to 150.101.100.144 on the box that wont work | 04:34 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | ookii it's in marillat | 04:35 |

| Kamping_Kaiser | dvd::rip is a full featured DVD copy program written in Perl.etc | 04:35 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | gphemsley, then it's not a resoving problem | 04:35 |
| ookii | i did apt-cache search dvd::rip | 04:35 |
| ookii | but alas i have no skills, so that could explain it | 04:36 |
| GPHemsley | (ew... PostNuke...) | 04:36 |

| GPHemsley | Kamping_Kaiser: What do you suppose it is? | 04:37 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | gphemsley, when you say cant connect, do you mean didnt find it? | 04:37 |

| GPHemsley | unome: So, wait, apt-get dist-upgrade will upgrade the Linux kernel? | 09:13 |
| _kane | possibly | 09:14 |
| unome | will upgrade the system (everything) if I understand correctly | 09:14 |
| GPHemsley | hmm... | 09:15 |
| GPHemsley | do I have to add any more sources? | 09:15 |

| GPHemsley | unome: Is it not good to have an updated kernel? | 09:28 |
| unome | yes, but if you ran apt-get dist-upgrade and there's no update fo the kernel, then you're fine, I guess | 09:29 |
| === GPHemsley shrugs | ||
| GPHemsley | what about installing new software? | 09:29 |

| unome | sudo apt-get install mozilla-firefox | 09:30 |
| unome | better yet, use synaptic | 09:30 |
| unome | just search for what you want, mark it for install and you're good to go | 09:31 |

| iLLf8d | try using lsof to see what it might be | 12:17 |

| ztonzy | hmm, how to fix it? | 02:23 |
| ztonzy | before I even tried to uninstall GDM, but it didn't help | 02:24 |
| apokryphos | I've only really got two thoughts, (i) remove (and purge) kdm, and then try to reinstall, (ii) or report a bug and use GDM in the meanwhile | 02:24 |
| apokryphos | nah, it's not down to GDM, I'm pretty sure. | 02:24 |
| ztonzy | but if I kill kdm now...X will crash, right ? | 02:25 |
| apokryphos | kdm's not running, is it? | 02:25 |
| apokryphos | you said it took you to login prompt.. | 02:25 |
| ztonzy | yes | 02:25 |
| ztonzy | but I typed 'sudo kdm' for start and run me as user and X | 02:26 |
| apokryphos | and then what did you type? | 02:26 |
| apokryphos | oh | 02:26 |
| ztonzy | as autologin for me as user | 02:26 |
| apokryphos | if kdm is working like that, then I guess we could just put it to autostart in some x file | 02:26 |
| apokryphos | now, if I had only an idea which one it was ;-). I'll try to find out, hold on. | 02:26 |
| ztonzy | maybe easiest to re-install it all :P | 02:28 |

| apokryphos | ztonzy: try selecting it by typing update-alternatives --config x-session-manager | 02:32 |
| apokryphos | (oh, with sudo of course) | 02:32 |
| ztonzy | selecting ? | 02:33 |
| uniq | ztonzy: 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure kdm' and 'sudo invoke-rc.d kdm defaults' can also help you. | 02:33 |
| Mez | ztonzt - check if /etc/init.d/kdm exists | 02:33 |
| insanekane | uniq: what is this invoke-rc.d ? what does it do ? | 02:34 |
| ztonzy | uniq, I do wonder if I didnt do that yesterday with help from someone in here | 02:34 |
| insanekane | uniq: is it better than /etc/init.d/kdm ? | 02:34 |
| ztonzy | Mez, ok | 02:34 |
| Mez | does it? | 02:34 |
| uniq | sorry, make that 'sudo update-rc.d kdm defaults' | 02:34 |
| ztonzy | Mez, yes | 02:34 |
| uniq | insanekane: invoke-rc.d is for starting, stopping and restarting services. | 02:35 |
| Mez | ztonzy, type | 02:35 |
| uniq | insanekane: it does basically the same as /etc/init.d/kdm something. | 02:35 |
| Mez | sudo /etc/init.d/kdm start | 02:35 |
| ztonzy | Mez, hmm why? I am in X | 02:35 |
| ztonzy | what will happen ? | 02:36 |
| ztonzy | I dont want to kick X ;) | 02:36 |
| apokryphos | The problem is that KDM can potentially start, it just doesn't autostart | 02:36 |
| ztonzy | correct | 02:37 |
| apokryphos | did you try that update-alternatives? | 02:37 |
| === kman___ [~kman@p5.pub.ro] has joined #kubuntu | ||

| ztonzy | between gdm/kdm ? | 02:38 |
| ztonzy | yes | 02:38 |
| ztonzy | when I re-installed KDE (or kubuntu when we chatted about it) yes I selected KDM | 02:39 |
| apokryphos | Just now, though, when you typed that command, was the * on 1 there? | 02:39 |
| ztonzy | *+ 1 /usr/bin/gnome-session | 02:39 |
| ztonzy | yes | 02:39 |
| ztonzy | 2 /usr/bin/startkde | 02:39 |
| apokryphos | is it on 2 now? | 02:39 |
| ztonzy | no | 02:40 |
| ztonzy | it is the star on #1 | 02:40 |
| apokryphos | select for it to go on 2 | 02:40 |
| apokryphos | and I think that should do it... | 02:40 |
| ztonzy | aah | 02:40 |
| ztonzy | I selected 2 and did the command again, and the star is in front of #2 now :) thanks! | 02:41 |

| apokryphos | oh. aMSN has support for it? Cool. | 02:43 |
| apokryphos | I'll try it out now (aMSN) | 02:43 |
| ztonzy | in CVS version | 02:43 |
| insanekane | uniq: oho ... is it possible for me to do the "configure network interfaces ..." thing after kdm starts ? | 02:44 |
| insanekane | uniq: i need to get up the GUI asap | 02:44 |
| apokryphos | yup | 02:44 |
| ztonzy | apokryphos, it is difficult to get it to run, with tcl/tk and all | 02:44 |
| uniq | insanekane: sure, use update-rc.d | 02:44 |
| apokryphos | insanekane: I don't know why, but that thing *always* failed on the first time for me. Telling it to retry always seems to work | 02:44 |
| apokryphos | ztonzy: cvs version might explain why it crashes, then | 02:44 |

| torz | hello, I've got a really minor question. | 03:14 |
| Tm_T | shoot | 03:14 |
| torz | I just installed Kubuntu and trying to adjust the size of the icon size. I've changed it with kcontrol but the change isnt reflecting. | 03:14 |
| Tm_T | iconsize in where? konqi? | 03:15 |
| torz | the icons in konqueror arnt just wanting to change | 03:15 |
| torz | yep | 03:15 |
| Tm_T | oh, konqi has its own settings ;) | 03:15 |
| torz | ah | 03:15 |
| torz | kind of suspected that heh | 03:15 |
| Tm_T | menu -> view -> icon size ;p | 03:16 |
| nikkia | torz, tbh, i've never been really happy with the icon size controls in the control centre, they're not particularly obvious as to which control changes which set of icons | 03:16 |
| torz | damn it! so simple | 03:16 |
| torz | nikkita: yeah i thought it had centralized control | 03:17 |
| nikkia | torz, it does, but some apps ignore it :P | 03:17 |
| torz | heh | 03:17 |
| torz | yeah this is the first time I'm using KDE | 03:17 |
| nikkia | torz, and then you have to play the 'is that 'main toolbar' or 'toolbar' game | 03:17 |
| torz | I've always used Gnome | 03:17 |
| Tm_T | yuk | 03:17 |
| torz | heh | 03:17 |
| Tm_T | torz: I'm glad you found the light ;--P | 03:17 |
| torz | yeah but I'm also a Mac OS X user :p | 03:17 |
| nikkia | torz, dear god | 03:18 |
| nikkia | how can any OS X user bear gnome ??? | 03:18 |
| torz | in fact I'm chatting to you with OS X right now | 03:18 |
| torz | nikkia: tell uni that :p | 03:18 |
| torz | plus RedHat is anal with KDE and is soooo biased towards Gnome. | 03:18 |
| nikkia | i remember my first comment on gnome, years and years ago | 03:18 |
| nikkia | 'my god, it makes motif look pretty!' | 03:18 |
| Tm_T | torz: RH is a huge anal itself | 03:18 |
| torz | Tm_T: agreed. | 03:19 |
| Tm_T | but we need those big suckers :/ | 03:19 |
| torz | RHEL eh. | 03:19 |
| insanekane | uniq: i looked at the roadmap ... most of the entries are very GNOME-ey ... | 03:19 |
| Tm_T | insanekane: yeah, it's Ubuntu-roadmap | 03:19 |
| torz | and theres something random with my background image as well | 03:20 |
| torz | I changed my taskbar to "tiny" right? | 03:20 |
| insanekane | Tm_T: yes ... i thought though, that they would consider kubuntu as well :) | 03:20 |
| Tm_T | insanekane: you should wait Kubuntu-roadmap to get some KDE related ;) | 03:20 |
| uniq | insanekane: there is a kubunturoadmap too. | 03:20 |
| insanekane | uniq: oh right :) silly me ... | 03:20 |
| nikkia | torz, the only thing wrong with kubuntu, for a OS X user, is the default 'bottom' position for the panel | 03:20 |
| uniq | http://udu.wiki.ubuntu.com/KubuntuRoadmap | 03:20 |
| nikkia | ubuntu defaults gnome's to the top, kubuntu should with KDE's too :P | 03:20 |
| Tm_T | bottoms up! | 03:20 |
| torz | then I specified my own image for a background and theres a significant black line where the task bar used to cover | 03:20 |
| Tm_T | nikkia: no! | 03:20 |
| nikkia | (altho it only takes like 0.5 seconds to fix :) | 03:20 |
| Tm_T | nikkia: no Gnome defaults please, just stick in KDE world ;) | 03:21 |
| torz | is "Centered Maxpect" the same as "Stretch"? | 03:21 |
| insanekane | uniq: seen on KubuntuRoadmap -> "Kubuntu is already the best GNU/Linux distribution available." :) | 03:21 |
| nikkia | torz, no | 03:21 |
| nikkia | torz, it'd be called 'stretch' if it was :P | 03:22 |
| torz | mmmm | 03:22 |
| nikkia | torz, maxpect retains the correct aspect ratio, iirc | 03:22 |
| insanekane | uniq: i hope they do not mean "KDE desktop distribution" | 03:22 |
| torz | mmm wheres the stretch option grrr | 03:22 |
| nikkia | torz, 'scaled' | 03:22 |
| uniq | insanekane: you have to belive in what you're working on :) | 03:23 |
| torz | cant see it | 03:23 |
| torz | I'm looking at Options | 03:23 |
| nikkia | torz, it should be just under 'tiled maxpect' i think | 03:23 |
| torz | which has Position, Colors, and blending | 03:23 |
| nikkia | torz, in 'position' choose 'scaled' | 03:23 |
| torz | uhhh | 03:24 |
| torz | yep I did it | 03:24 |
| torz | but still no difference | 03:24 |

| Tm_T | OS X is pretty, true... but hey, where's choices?! :p | 03:28 |
| torz | mmm I guess Ive only used KDE for only 30minutes so far so its too early to judge. | 03:28 |
| nikkia | tm_t, OS X's benefits go beyond just prettiness, tho | 03:29 |
| torz | with 10.4 Mac OS X has reached a new level | 03:29 |
| Tm_T | nikkia: in some cases, yes | 03:29 |
| nikkia | i'd rate OS X's consistancy one of its key benefits | 03:29 |
| torz | i.e. Dashboard | 03:29 |

| nikkia | torz, bizarre, usually changes should be instant | 03:31 |

| nikkia | you might be able to setup a keyboard shortcut for copy, i haven't tried tbh | 03:32 |
| torz | btw what controls the font size of under the icons in Konqueror? kcontrol or does it have its own thing like icon sizes | 03:32 |
| nikkia | i like to avoid changing keyboard shortcuts, too easy to get dependant on them, then be confused when using someone else's machine | 03:32 |
| insanekane | Distro^Junkie: use Shift+Insert or the middle mouse button to paste | 03:34 |

| insanekane | torz: kaffeine | 03:36 |
| _buz | vlc, mplayer or xine | 03:36 |
| torz | telling me to go have a coffee?? | 03:37 |
| nikkia | i use xine, but only because i can't get mplayer to play ac3, and kaffeine crashes too often | 03:37 |

| Shuddertrix | what _buz typed | 03:37 |
| insanekane | torz: no :) making a suggestion ... and i hope a strong one ;) | 03:37 |
| torz | whats the most light-weight one? | 03:37 |
| nikkia | torz, probably mplayer | 03:37 |
| nikkia | or 'ffplay' | 03:37 |
| torz | agreed. | 03:37 |
| insanekane | nikkia: ive had kaffeine crash on me ... but not after i installed kubuntu | 03:37 |
| torz | I've always found mplayer to be good | 03:37 |
| torz | gmplayer :~) | 03:37 |
| nikkia | insane, it crashes almost every time i try it, for me | 03:38 |
| Tm_T | torz: Kplayer! | 03:38 |
| insanekane | nikkia: hmm .. | 03:38 |
| insanekane | kmplayer | 03:38 |
| torz | okie dokey, kaffeine is conviniently already in my system so I'll load it up. | 03:38 |
| insanekane | but im not sure kmplayer is in any of the default repos | 03:38 |
| insanekane | torz: haha ... :) | 03:38 |
| torz | btw do I need to download additional codecs | 03:38 |
| nikkia | torz, probably | 03:38 |
| insanekane | torz: probably :) | 03:38 |
| torz | or is kaffeine nice enough to already have heaps of codecs | 03:39 |
| insanekane | torz: i do believe that the codecs are available in restricted | 03:39 |
| insanekane | torz: err .. multiverse | 03:39 |
| nikkia | torz, i haven't looked, but i'm guessing it uses the avcodec backend | 03:39 |
| insanekane | torz: mplayer and kaffeine share the codecs | 03:39 |
| insanekane | torz: or should i say mplayer and xine | 03:39 |
| nikkia | insane, that depends on how each is built | 03:40 |
| _buz | kaffeine on ubuntu uses xine afik | 03:40 |
| nikkia | you CAN build mplayer without avodec support, though you'd probably be insane to do so | 03:40 |
| nikkia | avcodec | 03:40 |

| spierrel | Riddell: Is it possible to wonload them to test? | 05:37 |

| nikkia | 1) is the usual login/password, 2) CHAP, and 3) PAP | 05:37 |
| nikkia | CHAP and PAP both rely on sending ppp configuration packets after connection and ppp is up and running, that ask the server/client to authenticate | 05:37 |

| chx | troy: does the Ubuntu kernel support FUSE by default? | 05:43 |
| troy | chx: not by default, no | 05:43 |
| troy | chx: but it's just a module, so you don't have to rebuild the kernel or anything | 05:44 |
| nikkia | torz, what you'll probably find, though, is that your ppp target is sending you junk auth requests, BT do for example, and you have to 'force' it to use the username your ISP supplied | 05:44 |
| nikkia | torz, there's an option in pppd's config that tells it what CHAP authentication username to tell the remote end you want to use is | 05:45 |
