| paulproteus | Miks: Does your computer automatically configure its IP address? By default, it uses dhcp3 not pump. | 12:05 |
| Seveaz | Miks, well, if you don't use dhcp but static ip-addresses on *every* card, then it should not be rewritten... | 12:05 |

| paulproteus | (Or if you think you can just redownload it in the future if you will.) | 12:07 |

| Seveas | caonex, well, X segfaults are so rare, that they are usually caused by bad memory | 12:11 |

| lsuactiafner | oo : i think so | 01:17 |
| diego | Seveas: thanks for the help, though i was only a translator heh. peace | 01:17 |
| zyth | oo, that's fine | 01:17 |
| zyth | oo, generally your swap ought to = your ram | 01:17 |
| lsuactiafner | make it at least double your ram | 01:17 |
| oo | and where is the missing ~900 mb.? | 01:17 |
| rift- | i wish bf2 worked on linux | 01:17 |
| jayparadise | i thought it should be twice | 01:18 |
| rift- | then I wouldn't need to dual boot | 01:18 |
| gorthaug | Seveas thanks for all!! | 01:18 |
| nalioth | lsuactiafner: seveas is an advanced AI running on a 12-Cell cluster | 01:18 |
| zyth | eh, in my experience, twice your ram is overkill, but whichever :) | 01:18 |
| jayparadise | yea i htought it was odd too | 01:18 |
| jayparadise | but i read that somewhere | 01:18 |
| rift- | i rarely hit swap | 01:18 |
| rift- | i got 1GB ram | 01:18 |
| nalioth | oo it needs to be at least equal, and in your case trebel | 01:18 |
| jayparadise | i wish vmware would use swap | 01:18 |
| nalioth | zyth: if ya aint got much ram, 3x is good | 01:18 |
| oo | maybe I dont hit swap either. gonna run xfce4 and some other small, resource-light apps :) | 01:18 |
| lsuactiafner | lol nalioth | 01:19 |
| ys76 | nalioth: I don't think so. You can run machines without any swap at all... | 01:19 |
| lsuactiafner | just this afternoon i joked about it | 01:19 |
| jayparadise | but its using the low mount of ram i have left and going reallly slow yet not slowing linux down | 01:19 |
| nalioth | ys76: and grow gray hair at the same time | 01:19 |
| lsuactiafner | ys76 : i ran a 42mb machine with no swap but it couldnt compile a kernel since it ran out of ram | 01:19 |
| lsuactiafner | and i didnt use -pipe either | 01:19 |
| lsuactiafner | he needs like 256mb just for firefox | 01:19 |
| oo | so. 256mb swap is better? | 01:19 |
| ys76 | lsuactiafner: 42MB is not that large today... | 01:20 |
| lsuactiafner | oo : 246 @ least.. | 01:20 |
| jayparadise | is abundant swap destructive? | 01:20 |
| oo | got a 700 coppermine celeron (mobile) and 128 mb ram. like L1 cache 64kbyte, and L2 128kbyte. | 01:20 |
| nalioth | jayparadise: no, just wasteful | 01:20 |
| lsuactiafner | but around 128*3 would be good, but 4* might make the machine slow, since a swap uses resources | 01:20 |
| jayparadise | im trying to maximize linux speed , killing processes and everything | 01:20 |
| ys76 | oo: That's similar to my machine | 01:20 |
| jayparadise | i dont consider 500 mb wasteful | 01:20 |
| lsuactiafner | oo : in that case 128*4 cant be bad | 01:21 |
| nalioth | jayparadise: if it's not used, it's wasteful | 01:21 |
| jayparadise | when you have 300 gb yet use 20 | 01:21 |
| oo | ys76, oh. what applications u run on it? what window manager? | 01:21 |
| lsuactiafner | jayparadise : it is til you find yourself needing to use something thats ram intensive | 01:21 |
| lsuactiafner | course you can add a swap easily using a file and mkswap it.. but thats ugly | 01:21 |
| oo | just got a 9gb disk drive in my laptop.. | 01:21 |
| lsuactiafner | but on my machine 1G dual drr and 1G swap i have ran out of ram twice | 01:21 |
| ys76 | oo: At the moment I am running FreeBSD with fluxbox, but before that I used Ubuntu... | 01:22 |
| lsuactiafner | course my loads were in 21 21 21 area | 01:22 |

| lsuactiafner | depends on that you do | 01:27 |

| nalioth | lsuactiafner: to each their own, but a good rule of thumb, it is | 01:27 |

| nikkia | ys, best advice is to try and determine what you are likely to need | 01:28 |

| unome | lsuactiafner: no need for that I believe you | 01:29 |
| nikkia | i usually work with 3-4 swap partition, but i'll create a 512MB to 3GB swapfile in /tmp if i think i'm going to need it for a particular task | 01:29 |
| nikkia | ys, if you have 2GB you're not going to OOM unless you regularly need more than 2GB :) | 01:30 |

| sara_poo | Razor-X: why do you prefer portage over apt-get ? | 02:56 |
| Razor-X | or have the myriad of optimization customizations that Gentoo allows | 02:56 |
| mika5 | naliot: yes there is | 02:56 |
| Razor-X | sara_poo: because it's so optimizable and customizable | 02:56 |

| muttDC | ? | 02:57 |
| sara_poo | Razor-X: hmm..... i'm not sure if ubuntu is for me.... | 02:57 |
| Razor-X | I can get a Gentoo system to run on my 'ol 486 with a stage 1 -O5 and some others | 02:57 |

| Kyral | sara_poo: No USE Flags, they are all precompiled binaries | 02:58 |
| Razor-X | exactly | 02:58 |
| sara_poo | my home desktop, but I'd like to install DB2 for practice (for work) | 02:58 |
| mika5 | nalioth: like I said the PATH is not set for the JAVA_HOME though I have it in the bash.rc file | 02:58 |
| nalioth | sara_poo: get to know "apt-get source -b <pkgname>" | 02:58 |
| caonex | nalioth, I doubt it, another thing that I have noticed is that, and what could be the proble, my +5 v is down to 4.5 and that is causing some kind of warning. | 02:58 |

| sara_poo | I've heard of success stories about installing db2 on debian, so i think i can do it for ubuntu. | 02:59 |
| nalioth | caonex: yes thats a problem. time for a new 600w PS | 02:59 |
| caonex | nalioth, I think that is what has to do with the problem. Everytime I boot, latetely anyways, I get the message saying that there was a hardware problem to check the hardware monitor. | 02:59 |
| caonex | nalioth, you think that is just the power supply? | 03:00 |
| jjbenham | I am having trouble with dhcp failing in the installer. It works in every other distro but debian. | 03:00 |
| HrdwrBoB | sara_poo: I played q3/doom3/ut2k4/wc3 all weekend on ubuntu :) | 03:00 |
| sara_poo | can you get cutting edge software more easily with ubuntu then with debian? It's my home workstation, and I like to try some of the newer packages, cvs stuff... etc. | 03:00 |
| HrdwrBoB | and it runs fine | 03:00 |
| caonex | nalioth, could not it be, the motherboard not handling the power correctly? | 03:00 |
| muttDC | nalioth, and how can see exactly what's the error when i type 'make' ?? | 03:00 |
| nalioth | caonex: you'll need to borrow a "nice" (not cheap) multimeter and test your PS | 03:00 |

| caonex | nalioth, and I mean look, my computer seems to be working fine now, but if I leave it idle, then I find it in the console and sometimes unable to control it. | 03:01 |

| nalioth | caonex: start testing your PS | 03:01 |
| Kyral | HrdwrBob: Was a joke :D | 03:01 |
| mika5 | naliotH: i saw that it was empty s o I added the java in ~/.bashrc, log out several x and still not picking it up | 03:01 |
| caonex | nalioth, well, I do not know anybody to borrow it from ;) | 03:01 |
| jjbenham | dhcp seems to not work on ubuntu for me. It works in gentoo and many other distros. What is the deal? | 03:02 |
| mika5 | nalioth: how do I invoke it on the console? | 03:02 |
| nalioth | caonex: pull your supply and take it to a local puter shop | 03:02 |
| nalioth | mika5: java -version | 03:02 |
| sara_poo | jjbenham: what does an ifconfig -a show ya? | 03:02 |
| mika5 | i mean the new .bashrc | 03:02 |
| caonex | nalioth, it probably will return the same as my motherboard, because it is measuring 4.5 as of now, it marks it red for the items to be alerted for. | 03:02 |
| nalioth | caonex: if the supply tests OK, its in the mobo | 03:02 |
| nalioth | mika5: at a terminal in your home dir, type "source .bashrc" | 03:03 |

| nalioth | caonex: if they charge for testing, buy a new PS, take it home, swap it out. if it works the old PS was bad, if it does the same with the new PS, the mobo is bad | 03:05 |
| nalioth | caonex: if the mobo is bad, take the new PS back for your money | 03:05 |
| sara_poo | jjbenham: if your card shows up in an ifconfig -a , and your properly plugged in, etc, you sould be able to pick up an ip with either "dhcpcd" as root or "dhclient" | 03:05 |

The thing that I don't understand is that I have all the W32codecs and things of the sort, I even have MPLAYER but it just doesnt seem to work, can anyone help? | 04:14 |

| _0kills | Derum, try VLC yet? | 04:15 |
| virgule | vlc | 04:15 |
| budluva | ookii, dvd::rip i think, i could be wrong | 04:15 |

| terry | newbie | 04:17 |
| oofnik | yeah terry go ahead and ask | 04:17 |
| netsniper | oofnik, init 3 ? | 04:17 |
| _0kills | terry, youve come to the right place | 04:17 |
| terry | hi | 04:17 |
| xxtreme | pietro_spina> yeah, so i hope we can make a deal, so i can promote that software here, if its any good | 04:17 |
| terry | I am lost | 04:17 |
| Derum | cool its working | 04:17 |
| Derum | thank you again | 04:17 |
| _0kills | np Derum | 04:17 |
| oofnik | netsniper, yeah i want runlevel 3 can i just type that at the grub prompt? | 04:17 |
| terry | can't even seem to change my theme | 04:17 |
| Cyber23 | Need some help with ati drivers | 04:17 |
| oofnik | when i change the boot options and such | 04:18 |
| Cyber23 | can anyone help | 04:18 |
| Derum | but like you said the sound isnt working | 04:18 |
| bob2 | xxtreme: "promote"? | 04:18 |
| Derum | is there a way where I can get pkill esd to but automatic? | 04:18 |
| netsniper | oofnik, you mean you want it by default on very boot? | 04:18 |
| _0kills | Derum, in terminal type pkill esd | 04:18 |
| netsniper | every boot? | 04:18 |
| oofnik | no netsniper just once | 04:18 |
| bob2 | Cyber23: you followed wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto, right? | 04:18 |
| _0kills | Derum, to turn esd back on just type esd | 04:18 |
| netsniper | oofnik, go into command line and type "init 3" | 04:18 |
| oofnik | i want to use runlevel 3 as a 'vnc server' mode | 04:18 |
| _0kills | Derum, i always turn esd off, its rarely ever on | 04:19 |
| oofnik | thanks netsniper i will go try that | 04:19 |
| terry | when i go to themes it lists several but when i select to install it asks me where it is .... not sure where to look | 04:19 |
| netsniper | oofnik, level 3 is single-user dude! | 04:19 |
| Vinh | netsniper: it does? even the overclockers.com.au screenshot? looks much clearer and ease on the eye when surfing on ie/firefox in windows | 04:19 |
| bob2 | Derum: syste -> preferences -> sound -> "start sound server", disable it | 04:19 |
| bob2 | netsniper: er, no, it's not | 04:19 |
| Derum | oh ok thanks again | 04:19 |
| bob2 | netsniper: level 3 is identical to level 2. which is identical to level 4. which is identical to...5. | 04:19 |
| _0kills | terry, the install option is only for adding new themes | 04:20 |
| oofnik | yeah, i thought it's like init 1 = halt, then init 2 - 5, then 6 is reboot | 04:20 |
| bob2 | 1 = single-user mode, 0 = halt. | 04:20 |
| _0kills | terry, to select different themes just click on one | 04:20 |
| oofnik | ah | 04:20 |
| oofnik | ok i'm going to try this | 04:20 |
| terry | why does it display seveal? | 04:20 |
| netsniper | that was dumb...why did i say that | 04:20 |
| oofnik | if x is not running locally, will XDMCP still run in a vnc server? | 04:20 |
| oofnik | haha netsniper it's all good | 04:21 |
| _0kills | terry, what do you mean? | 04:21 |
| terry | i have done that but it asks me to show it where the the files are | 04:21 |
| oofnik | terry are you trying to install a theme that you downloaded or what? | 04:21 |

| oofnik | ehh.. anyone know if XDMCP will still run in a vnc server if it's not running locally | 04:23 |
| bob2 | the logical first step would be to find out if there arew any sega saturn emulators for linux at all | 04:23 |
| Ghete1 | yes they are | 04:23 |

| Amaranth | tell it to | 05:36 |
| Redwraith | but i was trying to configure it with xine | 05:36 |
| nalioth | budluva: i'm not up on port forwarding, but any machine behind a firewall needs to see out | 05:36 |
| Redwraith | should my sound card work with esd? | 05:36 |
| Amaranth | or get a GNOME player like rhythmbox or muine to go with your GNOME desktop | 05:36 |
| Redwraith | i guess i could | 05:36 |
| Redwraith | i want something that works with an ipod | 05:36 |
| xxtreme | budluva, you need to make a rule in firestarter, for bittorrent | 05:37 |

| parabolize | s0n1cm0nk3y: i think that is e17. ;) | 09:18 |
| crimsun | sugoruyo: but _which_ files? | 09:19 |
| monchichi | s0n1cm0nk3y: yeah, it has a great pager | 09:19 |
| crimsun | sugoruyo: the source files are in /usr/src | 09:19 |
| s0n1cm0nk3y | yeah | 09:19 |
| s0n1cm0nk3y | gnome is okay | 09:19 |
| phyz | is there's manual configuration to detect for my smartlink pci modem because my ubuntu hardware detection wizard were failure..stuck when reach mouse detection | 09:19 |
| s0n1cm0nk3y | but i have the basic outlines | 09:19 |
| sugoruyo | crimsun, what do u mean which files?, any file i just dled | 09:19 |
| s0n1cm0nk3y | not as cool or sleek as that | 09:19 |
| crimsun | sugoruyo: the binaries of the build-dependencies are cached in /var/cache/apt/archives | 09:19 |

| sugoruyo | aha | 09:20 |
| monchichi | s0n1cm0nk3y: thats an e16 screenshot tho, i think | 09:20 |
| monchichi | cause of the epplets and iconbox | 09:20 |
| crimsun | sugoruyo: there's a distinction between the files you downloaded and the file you used to compile the new drivers | 09:20 |
| s0n1cm0nk3y | err ok | 09:20 |
| crimsun | sugoruyo: that's why I asked "which files" | 09:20 |
| sugoruyo | crimsun, can u explain a bit? | 09:20 |
| monchichi | s0n1cm0nk3y: but the e17 pager is great, and that icon launcher on the bottom is "engage" | 09:20 |
| crimsun | sugoruyo: normally when you install a package, the files are cached in /var/cache/apt/archives | 09:21 |
| phyz | so | 09:21 |
| sugoruyo | crimsun, i know that from using synaptic | 09:21 |
| parabolize | monchichi: you sure? it has engage on there... | 09:21 |
| sugoruyo | crimsun, i just would like u to explain the process i just performed | 09:21 |
| crimsun | sugoruyo: but the case of ubuntuized kernel module source means that _those_ are placed in /usr/src, not /var/cache/apt/archives | 09:21 |
| phyz | should i download anyfile for my smartlink pic modem? | 09:21 |
| crimsun | sugoruyo: the first thing you did was install the required packages for building the newer drivers. | 09:22 |
| sugoruyo | crimsun, u know like a very brief description of what each command does | 09:22 |
| crimsun | sugoruyo: then, simply, you built the new drivers. | 09:22 |
| _0kills | night everybody | 09:22 |
| monchichi | parabolize: no, not sure, but i think engage will run in any environment | 09:22 |
| parabolize | monchichi: yes it will. but why build all the stuff for it and not e17? | 09:23 |
| sugoruyo | crimsun, sorry for bugging about that but can you tell me the commands again, cause i can't scroll up to them any more | 09:23 |

| sugoruyo | crimsun, and stupidly :( i didn't copy-paste 'em somewhere | 09:23 |
| crimsun | sugoruyo: ok, you installed the build-dependencies, then you configured the alsa-source package (telling the Debian package management system to compile emu10k1 drivers), then you extracted the kernel source, then you used the Ubuntu infrastructure to compile the drivers, then you installed the compiled drivers | 09:24 |
| crimsun | sugoruyo: cd /usr/src && sudo dpkg-reconfigure alsa-source | 09:24 |
| sugoruyo | crimsun, damn *I* did all that? man I'm good... :D | 09:24 |
| crimsun | sugoruyo: choose "no" for PnP, "yes" for debug, and the emu10k1 driver | 09:24 |
| monchichi | parabolize: good question. :) maybe for stability..? | 09:24 |
| crimsun | sugoruyo: sudo tar xfj alsa-driver.tar.bz2 && cd modules/alsa-driver && sudo debian/rules binary_modules KSRC=/usr/src/linux-headers-$(uname -r) KVERS=$(uname -r) | 09:25 |

| === Rogers [~rogers@p508E9C4E.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| nikkia | david, it would still be pointless to invest in security doors if you're not going to tag everything | 10:59 |
| davidmccabe | But if you don't even know whether there are security doors or not, you'd better check first. | 11:00 |
| davidmccabe | hence chucking. | 11:00 |
| davidmccabe | not that I shoplift; it just occured to me. | 11:00 |
| nikkia | david, it'd be easier to build something that detects the magnetic field, and check it when you walk in | 11:00 |
| nikkia | throwing something thru the doors is likely to get you in trouble either way | 11:00 |
| monchichi | i think some stores probably put in fake security doors, just to scare potential shoplifters | 11:00 |

| davidmccabe | merc: cops is designed to make catching the stupid ones easier by giving them bogus ideas. | 11:04 |

| davidmccabe | hehe | 11:05 |
| davidmccabe | the ticket is to walk through at exactly the same time as sobody else, and pretend it was them. | 11:06 |
| Jesse1 | the funnies thing ive ever done was got one of those security stickers from the box of lan cable i bought in another shop as i walked through it set of the alarm so i chucked the sticker on the ground upside down and it stuck to the persons shoe and set of the alarm it was funny i didnt stick around tho for them to find the sticker | 11:06 |

| IceDC571 | damn.. why didnt i know that, i should read the packages descriptions more often | 11:56 |

| holycow | the new one looks like fun | 11:57 |

| holycow | lopster, based on that you can mount them and based on the content therein, you can guess which one was the windows designation | 12:01 |

| holycow | at first they wanted to get into the office suite business in the 90's and bought this app from a german co | 12:06 |

| holycow | IT ALWAYS WAS OO.O | 12:07 |
| holycow | right? | 12:08 |
| queuetue | Actualy, I thought (never really saw it, but thought) that SO had less features and more testing... | 12:08 |
| IceDC571 | yep.. but openoffice wasnt opensource before, was it? | 12:08 |
| IceDC571 | i mean | 12:08 |
| mjr | well, the deal with MS was that they can do their SO thing in peace, not OO.o, so the paranoid mind might think that the plan is to oust OO.o via MS's patent claims on file formats, making it not interoperate | 12:08 |

| IceDC571 | but staroffice has been around for years | 12:09 |
| lifeless | holycow: open office is star office minus the prop crap | 12:09 |
| holycow | open office was open sources in the early 90's | 12:09 |

| IceDC571 | nevermind im getting confused again, ack..... | 12:10 |
| holycow | same codebase same app | 12:10 |
| holycow | ice here is what happened? | 12:10 |
| holycow | open office codebase is like 18 years old | 12:10 |
| holycow | it was an old german office suite | 12:10 |
| holycow | sun bought it in late 80's early 90's | 12:10 |
| holycow | it was around for quite a while then | 12:11 |
| holycow | sun tried to compete with ms and lost | 12:11 |
| holycow | they open sourced it in the early to mid 90's | 12:11 |
| holycow | AS OPENOFFICE | 12:11 |
| IceDC571 | i see | 12:11 |
| holycow | it got popular, so they created the big brother called STAROFFICE | 12:11 |
| lifeless | holycow: your dates are wrong | 12:11 |
| IceDC571 | i didnt know openoffice was around for that long! | 12:11 |
| lifeless | holycow: and it started out as staroffice | 12:11 |
| holycow | which was the open source codebase with added proprietary components, like good thesaurus etc. | 12:11 |
| lifeless | http://about.openoffice.org/index.html#history | 12:11 |
| holycow | and sold licences for that | 12:11 |

| bigfoot1 | Well, I got VBA from Synaptic. I think it only runs in terminal mode. | 12:59 |

| nikkia | though | 12:59 |
| nikkia | gnomeboyadvance, for example | 01:00 |
| ronybeck | bigfoot1, so we need to find a front end for it. Have you tried looking at www.freshmeat.net? | 01:00 |

| bigfoot1 | on VBA's homepage (http://vba.ngemu.com), it seems like the windows version can run with a bit of a GUI (meaning: it has a simple toolbar from which one can do a bit of configuration). I wonder if it's possible to get a frontend. | 01:00 |
| nikkia | gnomeboyadvance is in the repos | 01:00 |
| bigfoot1 | nikkia, gnomeboyadvance is like VBA? | 01:00 |

| nikkia | big, you'd need to add the backports repositories to your sources.list for apt | 01:07 |
| bigfoot1 | Is it in the backports? please confirm | 01:07 |
| bigfoot1 | nikkia, how do i add it? is it safe to add the backports to my list? | 01:07 |
| bigfoot1 | no dangers? | 01:07 |
| ronybeck | bigfoot1, /etc/apt/sources.list from memory. You need to uncomment some of the lines to enable some disabled repositories' | 01:07 |
| nikkia | someone can probably paste the url for how to add backports | 01:07 |
| khabal | My computer is connected to a router which is connected to a cable mode, The internet works on XP, but doesnt work on linux, I checked the network card and it shows the light on, but whenever u try to use the internet doesnt seem to work | 01:08 |
| bigfoot1 | is there no simple text i can copy and paste to add only this one program from the backports? | 01:08 |
| nikkia | big, there are risks, but if you use it just to pull a specific package, then remove it from the repository list again, its relatively safe | 01:08 |
| mindspin | what does ifconfig say | 01:08 |
| bigfoot1 | okay, how do i add backports? | 01:08 |
| nikkia | big, there is a way you could do that, yes | 01:08 |
| ronybeck | bigfoot1, open up the sources.list in vi or something and uncomment the repositories | 01:09 |
| nikkia | you could just get the .deb from the backports server, and install it manually | 01:09 |

| nikkia | zever, if you have the mpc plugin for xmms, you can select 'diskwriter' output plugin, play the mpc file, and it'll produce a (i think) wav file that you can then convert to mp3 | 03:05 |
| pikeman | helix = real on linux...but you don't need it | 03:05 |
| nikkia | there is probably an mp3-writer output plugin too | 03:05 |

| bob2 | well, you're kind of a corner case, I don't know anyone but extreme new users who keep changing that often | 04:01 |

| CarlFK | MorphDK - what do you need it to do? | 04:25 |
| MorphDK | CarlFK, it's the little tool that connects you to any network, no matter how your settings are | 04:25 |
| OverDriv3 | justin: so i don't have to upload manually after editing the file, as in dreamweaver that saves directly to the server | 04:25 |

| nalioth | wijnand: just a standard observation i make to all folks (i don't know) | 05:01 |
| ineedtoshave | nikkia, of course you realise that once computers all have neural connections we'll all have the social mannerisms of stephen hawking right? | 05:01 |
| nikkia | ineedtoshave: why would that be? | 05:01 |
| wijnand | nalioth: wise -- probably saves having to deal with a lot of distressed people in here | 05:01 |
| flithm | queuetue, heh gotcha, I was just being a dumbass | 05:01 |
| queuetue | ineedtoshave, Possibly, if we ever chose to talk to humans... | 05:01 |
| tritium | wijnand, if you use marillat, mind zyth's comment | 05:02 |
| nalioth | whats to say when the neural connections come along, they don't tap into the 90% of unused wetware each of us has? | 05:02 |
| ineedtoshave | nikkia, because we'll all be thinking to our computers and then to each other, speech will become a useless art | 05:02 |

| torz | hi I've got a question about kppp. | 05:29 |
| ogge | Is there any chance the repositories sometimes contain viruses etc? How can I be sure that these repositories not containt hoax material. | 05:29 |
| nalioth | ogge: stick with official repos (and virii and linux don't go together) | 05:30 |
| torz | Its pretty random. I managed get kppp to connect to my isp but as soon as I click "continue" i get an error: Exit Status: 1 | 05:30 |

| gm78 | ogge, well if they did ubuntu itself would most likely contain viruses, since they are run by the same people and contained on ubuntu's servers....i wouldnt worry too much about it | 05:31 |
| torz | The remote system is required to authenticate itself. | 05:31 |
| nalioth | ep the easy way is "apt-cache --help" | 05:31 |
| torz | but I couldnt find any suitable secret (password) for it to use to do so. | 05:31 |
| ep | done! | 05:31 |
| bob2 | ogge: it's certainly possible untrusted apt repositories can do trojaned | 05:31 |

| gm78 | nalioth : i do for the most part. sometimes u have no choice though, like for packages like transcode. (ever tried compiling that thing, id rather die than try that again. the stupid configure script only checks for half of the dependancies actually needed so compiling it always breaks) | 05:34 |

| Thorrn4 | steved, it said: no sensors found :P | 05:53 |
| gm78 | wdh, i know that was my point. it isnt ur chat room so it isn't really your place to moderate what everyone talks about....thats my opinion anyways | 05:53 |
| cyphase | wdh, do you care who uses linux and who uses windows? because if you don't, i can understand your position | 05:53 |
| tritium | OverDriv3, install kernel-package, and then see the docs in /usr/share/doc/kernel-package. It will involve using make-kpkg with fakeroot. | 05:53 |
| tiredbones | After I stop the server, /etc/init.s/apache2 stop, I can still get display the placeholder page. If the server is down should I still beable to see this page? | 05:53 |
| bob2 | cyphase: this doesn't sound very "helping people use ubuntu"-related | 05:53 |
| bob2 | try #ubuntu-pfftopic | 05:53 |
| OverDriv3 | tritium: i am a windows user that has no idea about command line stuff : / | 05:53 |
| ray_ | i had to compile alsa 1.0.9 for my sound to work..... if i update the linux-headers and image will that break my sound? | 05:54 |
| tritium | OverDriv3, do you really need a custom kernel? | 05:54 |
| bob2 | ray_: if it overwrites the .ko for your driver, yes | 05:54 |
| wdh | gm78, well.. it isnt your place to moderate what i am talking about then :P | 05:54 |

| ogge | hello. doing the "free -m" in terminal. only got 12mbyte free of 128mbyte! only running gaim and one terminal. isnt this a little bit to much? using ubuntu hoary, xfce4, xorg. | 05:55 |
| OverDriv3 | tritium: some kind of file system enhancement | 05:55 |
| steved | thorrn4: run it with sudo otherwise it won't work | 05:55 |
| bob2 | ray_: back it up, restore it after installing the kernel image | 05:55 |
| tritium | OverDriv3, which? | 05:55 |
| bob2 | rade: you need to give a lot more details | 05:55 |
| bob2 | ogge: read the -/+ line instead | 05:55 |
| OverDriv3 | tritium: http://ftpfs.sourceforge.net/ | 05:55 |
| Thorrn4 | steved, still didnt work | 05:56 |
| Thorrn4 | :P | 05:56 |
| ray_ | bob2, good idea thanks man | 05:56 |
| steved | thorrn4: what did it say this time ? | 05:56 |
| ogge | bob2, it says used 44 .. free 79. | 05:56 |
| gm78 | ray_, actually....now that i think about it, the new kernel didn't change the abi (which is why it didn't need new headers) so u might be fine | 05:56 |
| tritium | OverDriv3, what for? | 05:56 |
| rade | alright, it's a cameo wlb 1403, the output from lsusb is "Bus 001 Device 004: ID 03eb:7613 Atmel Corp." | 05:56 |
| bob2 | ogge: there you go | 05:56 |
| ogge | cool :) | 05:56 |
| steved | thornn4: if you run sudo sensors-detect | 05:56 |
| OverDriv3 | so that i can mount a ftp directory and save directly to it from any program | 05:56 |
| ogge | linux is really freaking resource light. | 05:56 |
| tritium | OverDriv3, can't gnome-vfs do that? | 05:56 |
| steved | thorrn4: it should scan your machine and tell you what modules are needed | 05:57 |
| OverDriv3 | tritium: i have tried, but i have no idea on how to do that.. | 05:57 |
| tritium | OverDriv3, further, that projects says it's obsoleted by LUFS | 05:57 |
| ray_ | ogge, yeah all I have running right now is this chat program and my system monitor and i am using 198 megs.. try using icewm | 05:57 |

| === beyond is now known as beyond-out | ||
| tritium | OverDriv3, first, I'd suggest sftp over ftp, anyway. | 05:57 |
| bob2 | ray_: presumably 150MB of that is disk cache | 05:57 |
| OverDriv3 | tritium: i managed to connect to ftp and so on, but i cannot change files like i want to. And it is the LUFS i am talking about | 05:57 |

| dabaR | I guess what I am asking is: Is it normal to have a kernel image upgrade available like that? Just by sudo apt-get upgrade. | 06:01 |
| bob2 | rade: iwconfig doesn't work with linux-wlan-ng drivers | 06:01 |
| ogge | is there anyway to view free available videocard memory? | 06:01 |
| bob2 | rade: you need wlanctl or so | 06:01 |
| bob2 | I forget | 06:01 |
| teferi | second question: there's a known bug in the madwifi driver regarding WPA not working, upstream is totally mum on it, is anyone in ubuntu working on it? | 06:01 |
| ray_ | dabaR, Yeah i got the same update completely normnal | 06:01 |
| tritium | dabaR, yes, the update-manager looks for security updates | 06:01 |
| rade | bob2, so what do you suggest i do? | 06:01 |
| bob2 | rade: /usr/share/doc/linux-wlan-ng/README or so tells you the 3 commands or so to run to get a wlan-ng usb device working | 06:01 |
| OverDriv3 | trit: any idea? | 06:01 |

| bob2 | murphy: so, "sudo umount /otherdrive ; sudo mount /otherdrive" | 06:44 |
| bob2 | murphy: so, when people told you to do that before, you didn't tell them that unmounting failed | 06:46 |
| bob2 | which is the crucial clue to solving your problem | 06:46 |
| bob2 | kill everything accessing that disk and drive again | 06:46 |
| murphy | well, I think unmounting failed, because after I executed the unmount command, my GUI just showed an empty directory at /otherdrive | 06:47 |
| murphy | I mean, I don't think it failed | 06:47 |
| bob2 | so | 06:47 |
| bob2 | kill that window | 06:47 |
| ogge | How can i watch processes running? | 06:48 |
| sqrt | Does someone in here have a link to a guide for partitioning and dualbooting a windows xp so that it can run also linux? | 06:48 |
| bob2 | ogge: depends what you mean | 06:48 |
| ogge | processes in ram | 06:48 |
| bob2 | sqrt: install ubuntu. enjoy! | 06:48 |
| bob2 | ogge: still too vague | 06:48 |
| sqrt | bob2: I'd like to dual boot, though. | 06:48 |
| === magnus [~magnus@dsl-98-35.br.tiscali.no] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| bob2 | ogge: do you mean "watch what syscalls they make" or "watch how much cpu they use" or ... | 06:48 |
| murphy | Was that for me bob2? or someone else? | 06:49 |
| ogge | processes running, like CTRL + ALT + DEL in WIN XP. | 06:49 |
| bob2 | sqrt: yes, ubuntu will install and configure a bootloader capable of booting either | 06:49 |
| mindspin | ps aux | 06:49 |
| bob2 | sqrt: it will optionally let you resize existing windows partitions | 06:49 |
| ogge | bob2, both of em =) | 06:49 |
| bob2 | ogge: maybe "top" | 06:49 |
| bob2 | ogge: strace is you want to watch syscalls | 06:49 |

| Nerull | So today i got my free-shipped cd's for ubuntu but does it have the same apt system like debian do ? | 09:59 |
| nalioth | i3dmaster: lots of ati users have trouble, VESA as a driver will give you many res options | 09:59 |
| timtux | and those shit hang | 09:59 |

| andersbr | Now an obscure question: Does anyone know if the 3c59x driver supports 100Mbps? I believe the 3c509 cards themselves were 10Mbps only. | 10:01 |
| pipatron | Nerull: Not if you want a true ubuntu system, no | 10:01 |
| timtux | Seveas how? | 10:01 |
| justin | andersbr: 3c509 cards are ISA | 10:01 |
| timtux | nalioth, not for me. | 10:02 |
| justin | andersbr: read the output of dmesg and mii-tool/mii-diag if your card has mii stuff | 10:02 |
| pipatron | Nerull: But your ISP should set up some caching proxy instead | 10:02 |
| Nerull | pipatron so what are the main diffs between debian and ubuntu = | 10:02 |

| Nerull | pipatron lol @ u | 10:02 |
| socomm | timtux: Try Seveas suggestion. | 10:02 |
| timtux | And i asked, how to disable that? | 10:03 |
| socomm | timtux: Poke around a bit, you should have no problems finding the option. | 10:03 |
| andersbr | justin: I know. The card itself is a 3c905 100BaseTX. But the driver listed is 3c59x. | 10:03 |
| Nerull | I'll try it on my new server-box maybe i can use it on my workstation if i like it better then debian :) | 10:03 |

| Seveas | timtux, the installer will ask whether you want to download or not | 10:03 |
| justin | andersbr: 59x is not 509, its 905. blame 3com for stupid numbering | 10:04 |
