ubuntu | terje, im running live cd right now. but you cant use it for a long time, i mean editing the network properties each time and stuff ... thats no fun | 12:03 |
littlefae | Everyone's got these wonderful 'howtos' but not one of them has worked 100% | 12:03 |
ubuntu | nalioth, i have a dvd burner on another computer on the network, what can i do ? | 12:03 |
pgidz | littlefae did you check to see if you had your wlan0 using dhcp to get your ip address | 12:03 |

leo | cool, and i don't even have to be in the right directory? | 12:05 |
terje | so when I boot up off the CD, I just download all my files, logout and log back in and I have my desktop. | 12:05 |
pgidz | leo is it working for you | 12:05 |
ubuntu | nalioth, i have no problem sending it over the network, but how can i access that partition ? | 12:06 |
leo | hang on i'll get a blank | 12:06 |
nalioth | ubuntu: i'm assuming you want to backup wndows to put linux on the 4gb laptop HD? | 12:06 |
pgidz | leo make sure you put the full directory path to your iso file | 12:06 |
terje | ubnutu: if it's a windows box, they have a backup utility that can be used to create a back up .DAT file. Send that over the network to the system w/ the burner. | 12:06 |

littlefae | I can't hardwire to it. | 12:07 |
ubuntu | nalioth, i dont know, if i could turn the 40gb partition into two, i would install linux over there .. but i want to backup that one any way | 12:07 |

mjr | littlefae, that'd be nice, but it'd be nicer if the drivers were already there, which would happen if hardware manufacturers _didn't_ do their own thing and co-operated with the kernel maintainers into getting good drivers in | 12:31 |
Razor-X | Seveas: you're quoting Marxism | 12:31 |
mjr | there -> in the kernel | 12:31 |

Seveas | (apart from usb/firewire) | 12:32 |
pgidz | leo just check if that is the correct place for the file | 12:32 |
jakobbg | nah, the licence can just limit the ways the software can be used, and dual licence it for other uses. | 12:32 |
Poromies | Seveas: exactly :) | 12:32 |
Razor-X | that's very true | 12:32 |
Razor-X | Macs don't really work well | 12:32 |
mwe | and there are commercial interests in making everything easy to use | 12:32 |
Razor-X | plus, anything that's non USB-HID is hellish to setup in Mac | 12:32 |
Seveas | But usb/firewire devices are so goddamn easy to support: there are standards that all manufacturers adhere too | 12:32 |
Seveas | to* | 12:32 |
Poromies | i have 3 macs here, and i have never had any HW problems with them :D | 12:32 |
littlefae | Mac works for me.. | 12:32 |
pgidz | leo copy it from your desktop to your home directory | 12:32 |
jakobbg | software can be open sourced and still be unusable as a product | 12:32 |
nikkia | seveas, even ignoring USB/Firewire, you have ATI/nVidia, about 10-15 different chipsets, 3 different CPU generations, comprising about 30 different CPU revisions, AGP vs PCI vs PCI64 vs PCI-X, etc etc | 12:32 |
jakobbg | due to a licence | 12:32 |
lsuactiafner | is there a way to load a 30mb video bad quality tho into the ram uncomprssed so it would play with mplayer under heave loads without skippin a beat? | 12:33 |
Seveas | nikkia, compare that to the available hardware | 12:33 |
pgidz | leo so the command would be /home/leo/KNOPP etc | 12:33 |
Seveas | that us an extremely limited subset | 12:33 |

mjr | yes, it is, really | 12:33 |
jakobbg | lsuactiafner: or just give it a high nicevalue | 12:33 |
nikkia | seveas, all of adaptec's scsi controllers, bar a couple of oddball 'budget' cards worked on macs without any hassle, for example | 12:33 |
lsuactiafner | jakobbg : am already doing that | 12:34 |
Seveas | nikkia, that is 1 (one) manufacturer... | 12:34 |
leo | pgidz: i can't think of any other right location to put in instead | 12:34 |
nikkia | seveas, just one example | 12:34 |
jakobbg | hmm. use qnx? | 12:34 |
pgidz | leo have you copied it into your home directory | 12:34 |
jakobbg | or some other decent RTOS? | 12:34 |
lsuactiafner | jakobbg : that defeats the point, i want to load it in ram, uncomprssed so that mplayer has very little overhead becuase it creates my desktop background | 12:34 |
pgidz | leo so it would be in /home/leo | 12:34 |
nikkia | seveas, i won't deny its a subset, but its not a small subset, more hw works on macs than most realise | 12:34 |
leo | its on the desktop | 12:34 |
jakobbg | haha, ok :-) | 12:34 |
lsuactiafner | currenly its usin 4% @ good quality and 0.8% in bad quality | 12:35 |
littlefae | I just wanted a nice little runaround laptop for use out and about, and everything works well, except networking. And it's all such a chore, just to get a lousy connection. The commands are horrendous to use, the drivers seem imposible to get, for so much hardware, and yet, people have solutions, but they just don't work. I'll make it work sooner or later, if it's possible, but I tell you, Linux devs and support 'st | 12:35 |

LinuxJones | tiglionabbit, did yoyu do a normal Hoaryinstallation or a custom install ? | 01:37 |
oneup | thank ,how much more ram would it need to be acceptable please ? | 01:37 |
rasputnik | tiglionabbit : try other words :) | 01:37 |
tiglionabbit | LinuxJones: normal, and whiptail looked fine while it was installing | 01:37 |
rasputnik | tiglionabbit : what's 'echo $TERM' say? | 01:38 |
jasoncohen | what other packages do i need to get the full industrial theme? | 01:38 |

jasoncohen | ok | 01:41 |
bimberi | oneup: Give it a try then :) | 01:41 |
jasoncohen | why would they get rid of industrial icons? that's the default in debian and i found it quite nice | 01:41 |

rasputnik | choose the grub entry, press 'e', select the 'kernel' line, press 'e', add ' single' to the end of that line, and then press 'b' to boot that entry | 01:48 |
bimberi | oneup: Hmm, no mention of voodoo at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsVideoCards - which doesn't mean much either way | 01:48 |
rasputnik | I'm used to bsd though, where single user just mounts the root fs and stops. ubuntu does a bit more, but hopefully you'll still be able to get at /etc/mtab | 01:49 |

holycow | i am not sure that counts | 02:08 |
bimberi | wazdmin: Have a look at http://backports.ubuntuforums.org/ for how to set up backports. An azureus install might work using their repositories. | 02:08 |
black_Nightmare | hmm ok ty | 02:08 |

bimberi | wazdmin: When using backports it's important to only use them for an install of a package. You shoudl disable them when doing a general upgrade. | 02:09 |

black_Nightmare | I'm sure these could be removed while os is still running | 02:11 |

fundle | this is a fresh install on a dell 1100 lattop | 02:11 |
black_Nightmare | fundle....graphic card support? | 02:12 |
holycow | black_Nightmare, its a two part question | 02:12 |
holycow | a: is the hardware designed for that | 02:12 |
black_Nightmare | 640x480 is kinda supposed to be the 'unsupported' res | 02:12 |
fundle | black: not sure | 02:12 |
wazdmin | ya..i checked my sources list..i already have those installed | 02:12 |
holycow | and b: can the os detect hardware changes | 02:12 |
siorfin | rasputnik: everything works now thanks, creating a new file fixed it | 02:12 |
holycow | the answer to b: is yes | 02:12 |
fundle | black: let me lspci | 02:12 |
black_Nightmare | holy...as far as I've found.. mac os supports some bay swapping (same to pcmcia if not in use too) | 02:12 |
holycow | the answer to a: is, well take a chance bucky, let us know if your laptop survives | 02:12 |
wazdmin | bimberi : is it ppossible i might need to enable those backports | 02:13 |
holycow | black_Nightmare, its a two part question | 02:13 |
holycow | don't ignore a: | 02:13 |
black_Nightmare | hehe ok | 02:13 |
holycow | you could be sorry | 02:13 |
black_Nightmare | well holy..if people say mac os supports it then...why couldn't another os? :-) | 02:13 |
black_Nightmare | but again..I'll see ;) | 02:13 |
fundle | black: 82845g/gl brookdale-g is what it says | 02:13 |
bimberi | wazdmin: yes - if you want to install azureus | 02:13 |
wazdmin | how do i enable them | 02:13 |
black_Nightmare | fundle..errumm..that sounds like intel graphics to me (they had 'GL' names too) | 02:13 |
holycow | black_Nightmare, your thjinking of running ubuntu on a powerbook? | 02:13 |
fundle | black: it is intel | 02:14 |
black_Nightmare | holy...maybe...or just mac os alone..not sure...would have to make a ubuntu/ppc livecd to try the pb with | 02:14 |
holycow | i have no clue, i don't run those. hotplug should detec all hardware changes and so far its rarely borked | 02:14 |
holycow | black_Nightmare, what is it with you and the os? | 02:14 |
black_Nightmare | fundle...humm well it should be able to use any intel GL drivers | 02:14 |

fundle | black: so what do you suggest i do ? | 02:15 |
holycow | then plug it back in | 02:15 |
bimberi | wazdmin: add the two lines after "Example Hoary configuration:" on that page to your /etc/apt/sources.list . Then run sudo apt-get update | 02:15 |

Sonderblade | is the ubuntu-5.04-install-i386.iso broken? I've compared the md5sum of the file with the one in the MD5SUMS file and they match | 02:20 |

moparfan90 | i am trying to install WineCVS.sh file and i am getting an error can some one help me with this?? | 02:21 |
Sonderblade | Burgundavia: not unlikely, but it is always the same error in the ifrename package | 02:21 |

brad | hoary works perfectly on my thinkpad t40p | 03:02 |
Thorrn4 | reka, I was looking for it....its not there | 03:02 |
wazdmin | ok..is this suppose to be like this..i have two seprate files..sources.list. and sourcest.list_backup | 03:02 |
mikeworking | brad: does yours have a CDROM and floppy? My new IBM Thinkpad didn't come with one. | 03:02 |
wazdmin | one is updated | 03:02 |
wazdmin | one is isnt | 03:02 |
cafuego | Agiofws: Except you don't normally need to edit menu.lst either, becuase the kenrel packages add themselves. | 03:02 |
siorfin | i actually use sudo pico imo, carry over from shell accounts | 03:02 |
Agiofws | cafuego, what if you go to init level 3???? and login as root? | 03:03 |
lampshade | mikeworking: Holy crap, a thinkpad without a cdrom? Are you serious??? | 03:03 |
brad | my t40 came with the crappy 9.5mm dvd/cdrw | 03:03 |
Agiofws | cafuego, su command does not work? | 03:03 |

chrishartley | My laptop screen size is being incorreclty detected as limited to 800x600 (it is 1024x768 in windows) in the BIOS scan ATI runs when I start x. Any hints on how to over ride the incorrect video bios data and get the full 1024x768? | 03:03 |
wazdmin | nooby mistyake number 1 | 03:03 |

ttj | I'm having a bit of trouble installing ubuntu... The installer finds both my wireless adapter (built in) and my wired adapter, the problem being that the wireless adapter gets the name eth0.

Dreco | thanks flugh, that was my next question. I will have to push it from the windows machine to Ubuntu | 03:54 |
flugh | Dreco, i'd probably make something in /home if it's a lot of stuff. mainly because i tend to make /home a seperate partition and it's easy to backup | 03:54 |
Dreco | so it will have to be shared | 03:54 |
digitalfox | Ubuntu has officially impressed me | 03:54 |
digitalfox | everything on my laptop worked | 03:54 |
digitalfox | without touching it | 03:54 |
pedingto | Awesome, digitalfox. :) I only had to make a minor change to the xorg.conf to fix a resolution issue. | 03:55 |
flugh | dreco: easiest i'd think is run samba, make a share, limit valid users. unless you want to run scp/sftp (look into "putty" for windows, it's great tool, maybe command line solution) | 03:55 |
digitalfox | I didn't even have to do that O.o it set the OSS ATI drivers and the proper native resolution for my LCD | 03:55 |

Burgundavia | yes, unfortunately | 05:36 |

IceDC571 | nekohayo: try using the same refresh rate tips on LCDs.. it wont make a difference | 05:52 |

nekohayo | yeah I know that.. on lcds lower is better | 05:52 |

Burgundavia | nekohayo, LCD's are much much nicer to look at for long periods of time | 05:56 |
IceDC571 | when people shop for LCDs.. the ms rate is the most important, the refresh rate almost doesnt matter because no one notices it | 05:56 |
TokenBad | so he wants to basicly search the entire system for httpd.conf files with the line in it | 05:56 |
IceDC571 | the higher the ms, the more shadowing occurs | 05:56 |
Burgundavia | actually, LCDs have lower refresh rates than CRTS | 05:56 |
wizo | yupz true that | 05:56 |
Cthulhu | TokenBad, cd / && sudo grep -R string * | 05:56 |
wizo | thats y LCD screens are nto that good for gaming coz of the lower refresh rate | 05:57 |

dbernar1 | welcome | 06:02 |
nekohayo | LCDs have only one optimal resolution? >___< I don't want 1280, that's too high for nothing | 06:03 |
wizo | interpolation? issint that extending a graph? | 06:03 |
nekohayo | I believe if you don't use the native resolution of an LCD, you get smoothed out images (because it's stretched) | 06:03 |
IceDC571 | nekohayo: yeah, thats the only downside | 06:03 |
nekohayo | you don't get a cristal clear image. | 06:03 |
dbernar1 | nekohayo: what I did, was...I ran dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, and I selected to allow other resolutions. | 06:03 |
IceDC571 | nekohayo: thats why gaming sucks when you use a lower resolution on LCD | 06:04 |
dbernar1 | as sudo | 06:04 |
IceDC571 | you see all blurs | 06:04 |
nekohayo | well I'm no gamer (except once in a while for enemy territory :) | 06:04 |
dbernar1 | nekohayo: the thing is, dont screw up stuff in that reconfigure. | 06:04 |
nekohayo | uh? | 06:04 |
Juhaz | it blurs a bit but it's not all that bad, if "you see all blurs" that's probably more from the slowness than non-native resolution | 06:04 |
Juhaz | and too ... high? ugh, and here I've been banging my head to wall and hoping someone would finally make 1600x1200 desktop lcd's | 06:04 |
IceDC571 | Juhaz: yeah, you're right | 06:05 |
nekohayo | Juhaz, well I noticed I was always getting leaned forward to read, not a good thing. | 06:05 |
IceDC571 | trust me, once you get used to "high" resolutions you wont go back | 06:05 |
dbernar1 | cause you wont see anything then. I am personally also usually for a lower resolution, its all bigger, thats good sometimes. | 06:05 |
IceDC571 | nekohayo: use a higher dpi for your fonts | 06:05 |

zoe1222 | whatever was standard on the 5 color imacs, | 07:00 |
ratl3 | Burgundavia: sudo within .desktop files? is this lindows? | 07:00 |
wazdmin | is there a better mp3 player..when i open a song it doesnt play very well from when i first lanunch it | 07:00 |
FLeiXiuS | zoe1222: If you want to save trouble, boot your LIVE CD, mount your / directory on your hard drive, copy the /etc/X11/xorg.conf to your hard drive. | 07:00 |
dj-pynguin | i know how to mnt, i just cant get root access | 07:00 |
zoe1222 | ATI something, | 07:01 |
bigfoot1 | Shuddertrix, thank you for your response. I'm just wondering if it's possible to save? What key do we press? | 07:01 |
Burgundavia | ratl3, no, telling the system that an application needs root privs | 07:01 |
ratl3 | Burgundavia: ohhh | 07:01 |
fivel256 | sudo mount | 07:01 |
FLeiXiuS | zoe1222: Do you even have a log of error messages which you can providE? | 07:01 |
zoe1222 | copy it to the same directory? | 07:01 |
Burgundavia | ratl3, then letting the sytem decide what to use | 07:01 |
FLeiXiuS | zoe1222: yes. | 07:01 |
dbernar1 | wazdmin: has to be better than something, which are you using>? | 07:01 |
Burgundavia | ratl3, that is one option, there are other one the table | 07:01 |
zoe1222 | where is the log kept? | 07:01 |
bigfoot1 | Shuddertrix, and how do you pause the game (running in fullscreen) to go to back to the desktop for a while? | 07:01 |
zoe1222 | I can look at it, | 07:01 |
FLeiXiuS | zoe1222: If you mounted to /mnt/harddrive, then you'll copy it too, /mnt/harddrive/etc/X11/ | 07:01 |
yahalom | anyone here use hotkeys? | 07:02 |
Shuddertrix | bigfoot1: not quite sure on either (I don't use savestates, and I never play in fullscreen) Sorry. | 07:02 |
zoe1222 | alright, I can try that. | 07:02 |
ratl3 | Burgundavia: I think that's a good idea, what are the other ideas? | 07:02 |
dj-pynguin | fivel: i get booted into the OS and then cant change anything that needs root privaledges, it prompts for a password and i type the exact same as i configured, but it says incorrect | 07:02 |
Shuddertrix | Perhaps someone else knows. | 07:02 |
bigfoot1 | Shuddertrix, okay. Coz i couldn't find any info in the manual. | 07:03 |
fivel256 | it wants your user pass | 07:03 |
Burgundavia | ratl3, I don't know enough to flesh them out | 07:03 |
FLeiXiuS | zoe1222: /var/log | 07:03 |
ratl3 | Burgundavia: oh, ok | 07:03 |
zoe1222 | alright. | 07:03 |
fivel256 | dj-penguin user pass | 07:03 |
bigfoot1 | Shuddertrix, in the windows version, it has this feature, so i thought we Linux users have this feature, too. | 07:03 |
Shuddertrix | bigfoot1: There's probably a config file that can hold the keys and stuff.. | 07:03 |
FLeiXiuS | zoe1222: you can cat each of the log files then pipe it through grep searching for EE. | 07:03 |
FLeiXiuS | cat /var/log/xorg* |grep EE | 07:03 |
dj-pynguin | fivel: what do you mean? | 07:03 |
FLeiXiuS | That'll give you the error messages. | 07:03 |

jasmuz | luke: upgrading is easy...change your sources.list and hit sudo apt-get update and later sudo apt-get dist-upgrade it will do everything for you | 07:34 |
luke | dj-pynguin, is it just me or is update *to* 5.04 *from* 4.10 not correct? | 07:35 |
dj-pynguin | lotia: in console type: sudo fdisk -l, that should show you some more info on what is recognized | 07:35 |

Amaranth | bigfoot1: --force-all is _never_ a good idea | 07:45 |

dj-pynguin | bimberi: no, because when asked for the password: if 'ubuntu' returns 'Sorry, Try again' else if '' brings me back to prompt, but <command> never executed | 07:47 |
bimberi | Amaranth: so force-depends perhaps ? | 07:47 |
bigfoot1 | so which one do i need? I did force all because some kind person on this chatroom advised me to do so. He said there's no danger, as it's only the version number that isn't recognized. | 07:48 |
dj-pynguin | hondje: i love it!!! | 07:48 |

bigfoot1 | tomchuk, oh, is tar.gz easier than .deb? | 07:48 |
bigfoot1 | i didn't know that. | 07:48 |
Amaranth | bigfoot1: It doesn't matter anymore. You'll love the package next time you install something though. | 07:48 |
tomchuk | bigfoot1: well it's better than forcing a deb that you can't meet the deps for | 07:48 |

Amaranth | SymGeosis: I did before I upgraded to breezy. | 07:49 |
bigfoot1 | if i get the tar.gz version, i don't need to force anything? | 07:50 |
tomchuk | bigfoot1: "apt-get -f install" from the command line should get rid of the package you forced in | 07:50 |
Amaranth | bigfoot1: First you should try to find a deb that works with your system | 07:50 |
bimberi | dj-pynguin: just verifying that this is the livecd | 07:50 |
bigfoot1 | how do i go about finding one? | 07:50 |
bigfoot1 | Amaranth, ? | 07:50 |
SymGeosis | Amaranth, do you know if it is possible if you already have one instance of VLC open and you open a media file externally to have it open in your current instance of VLC instead of opening a new instance? | 07:50 |

bigfoot1 | tigliona1bit, thank you. what's the "octal" way of saying things? | 08:15 |
ukato | what's a segmentation fault. | 08:15 |
Cthulhu | if the file is read only maybe the better way is to use sudo <editor> | 08:16 |
SymGeosis | man chmod | 08:16 |
tigliona1bit | read = 4, write = 2, execute = 1. Add them up, and the first number is root, second is group, third is Everyone (including outside users). So read+write is 6, so you'll say chmod 660 thefile | 08:16 |

=== JME_Fidelity|GTR [~jme@pcp403997pcs.mntcrm01.md.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu | ||

tigliona1bit | it has great code indentation features. I need to figure out how to make vim do that | 08:22 |
r2d4 | Is there some sort of screen video that really beats in why I need editors like vi or emacs instead of graphical ones like scite or kate. | 08:22 |
bigfoot1 | tigliona1bit, what kind of game is nethack? | 08:22 |
tigliona1bit | bigfoot1: no, they are completely different in every way | 08:22 |
tigliona1bit | bigfoot1: text-based, but quite graphical for text | 08:22 |
tigliona1bit | it's a dungeons and dragons game with a lot of surprising things in it, but learning to play it is like learning to use vim | 08:23 |
bigfoot1 | r2d4 what's a "screen video"? | 08:23 |
tigliona1bit | lots of fun if you don't minde dying | 08:23 |
hondje | you can get gui frontends for nethack | 08:23 |
bigfoot1 | why don't you guys prefer using graphical editors like gedit? | 08:23 |
r2d4 | Like those flash demos or captures of an expert demoing a system. | 08:23 |
bigfoot1 | gotcha. | 08:23 |
r2d4 | let me find an example. | 08:23 |
hondje | bigfoot1: I prefer vim because it's faster to use, and you don't need X running | 08:24 |
bigfoot1 | i think i know what you mean. Like a movie made from ScreenCaptures... r2d4, right? | 08:24 |
Cthulhu | bigfoot1, because when you learn how to use vim or emacs you will love it.. | 08:24 |
bigfoot1 | Cthulhu, i will? | 08:24 |
tigliona1bit | r2d4: uh, no. But they're flexible, they can be used remotely easily, and once you get a lot of the keyboard controls down you can do things surprisingly quickly without having to click on stuff | 08:24 |
hondje | yeah | 08:24 |
hondje | it's like using latex, once you know how you can't stand having to stop, move the mouse, click stuff.... | 08:25 |
r2d4 | bigfoot1: something like that. yes! usually flash or avi. | 08:25 |
Cthulhu | bigfoot1, ok - if you learn.. ;> | 08:25 |
tigliona1bit | bigfoot1: if you want to start, run vimtutor from console and let it explain things to you. Be ready to commit a lot of time to learning to use it if you're up to it though | 08:25 |
r2d4 | I keep hearing how good they are. | 08:25 |
r2d4 | but never could justify the effort. | 08:25 |
r2d4 | I find it easier to type something locally and upload. | 08:26 |
r2d4 | So I don't edit on telnet/ssh a lot. | 08:26 |
bigfoot1 | r2d4, how good what are? non-graphical text editors? | 08:26 |
tigliona1bit | r2d4: think of this-- would you be willing to spend one week learning something new if it would make you look totally l33t and make work faster, or allow you to save money on hardware? | 08:26 |
r2d4 | bigfoot1: yes. specifically emacs and vi | 08:26 |

tigliona1bit | the Dvorak keyboard was made by some army general dude to make sending coded messages over the internet faster. It places all of the common keys on the home row and reduces the effort it takes to type things. The Dvorak dude also made one-handed layouts for soldiers who had lost an arm, in the war. | 08:31 |

stm_designer | ok the issue is I have sun java on here the link is not working though | 08:31 |
tigliona1bit | The traditional "Querty" layout was created to minimize jamming of old school typewriters, by putting all of the common keys far apart so it was hard to type them fast enough to jam it up | 08:32 |
bigfoot1 | the das keyboard's feature is its blank keys. | 08:32 |
dr_willis | Dvorak keyboard layout was designed by Mr Dvorak wasent it.. :P and hes still a computer-tech guy? | 08:32 |
stm_designer | I don't know if I linked it incorrectly or if I installed it into the wrong folder | 08:32 |
tigliona1bit | Dvorak is based on the english language and makes typing english much easier, and reduces carpal tunnel syndrom | 08:32 |

jtan325 | you know what i hate the most about ubuntu | 09:42 |
Nermal | the users ? | 09:42 |
jtan325 | is that you have to freakin guess which packages are needed to install crap | 09:42 |
Nermal | well .. not really.. | 09:42 |
jtan325 | i just spent the past 4 hours figuring out why i couldn't build numarray by source | 09:42 |
Nermal | synaptic will give you catergories | 09:42 |
jtan325 | well | 09:42 |
jtan325 | not if you want to upgrade numarray to 1.3.2 | 09:43 |
jtan325 | that's in breezy | 09:43 |
tiglionabbit | jtan325: search google and figure out what stuff does | 09:43 |
jtan325 | yeah | 09:43 |
jtan325 | i've been doing that | 09:43 |
jtan325 | i learned a bit though | 09:43 |
tiglionabbit | jtan325: besides, there are extended descriptions of things in synaptic | 09:43 |
jtan325 | but freakin a | 09:43 |
Nermal | jtan325, that's just lack of experience | 09:43 |
=== yuacht [~zth@h-83-140-113-25.ip.cust.port80.se] has left #ubuntu ["Leaving"] | ||
Amaranth | jtan325: That's why package management systems were built. | 09:43 |
Nermal | after a while you get to read the errors and install the right packages | 09:44 |
Nermal | or you just visit the homepage and see what it needs | 09:44 |
Amaranth | jtan325: Because without them you have to guess at dependencies, install them yourself, and try again. | 09:44 |
jtan325 | i was getting a python build error though | 09:44 |
jtan325 | it never said anything about needing python2.4-dev | 09:44 |
jtan325 | although i should've figured that might be important | 09:44 |
jtan325 | "static headers" haha | 09:44 |
jtan325 | oh man | 09:45 |

jtan325 | i usually find it in /usr/bin or /usr/lib or /usr/share | 09:48 |
marcin_ant | hi all | 09:48 |

jtan325 | cool | 09:48 |

jtan325 | yeah this is a good site | 09:49 |
jtan325 | thanks | 09:49 |
jago25_98 | jtan325: because synaptic isn't messy - stuff through that is managed. some stuff does go in /opt , but that's a bodge/kludge | 09:49 |

jtan325 | yeah but then why is there native eclipse for fc4 | 09:50 |
jtan325 | which i use at home | 09:50 |
anatole | i'm having the strange feeling that i'm doing something really wrong when updating the kernel | 09:50 |

jtan325 | i just followed the steps on the ubuntu wiki | 09:50 |

marcin_ant | I mean to use eth0 when available and switch to wifi automatically when eth is unplugged? | 09:51 |
jtan325 | i decided to go full-blown linux this week, installing ubuntu at work and fc4 at home | 09:51 |
nikkia | jtan, tbh, i'm not happy with packaged versions of apps that auto-install stuff | 09:51 |

djp | hi. i used the export EDITOR=blah, blah command yesterday to change my default command line editor. it worked fine. however after closing down my pc and restarting it this morning, the editor has reverted back to the original default editor used under gnome/ubuntu? i would like to make the editor change and be permanent. | 09:52 |
hondje | nikkia: maybe slack is the distro for you then, they keep it pretty much in your hands | 09:52 |
nikkia | jtan, eclipse and azureus are prime examples of apps that by their nature break the concept of packaging, they both install/upgrade themselves, and maintaining a package registry is near impossible, since the system can't easily tell if you've updated them | 09:52 |
jtan325 | djp: edit your ~/.bashrc file | 09:52 |
jtan325 | and stick your aliases and whatnot there | 09:52 |
jtan325 | NOT your .bash_profile | 09:52 |
=== ernstp [~ernstp@k13d217-2.kam.afb.lu.se] has joined #ubuntu | ||
jtan325 | export only does it for your login session, as you have learned | 09:52 |
ernstp | hi all | 09:52 |
djp | jtan325: excellent . thanks. what command should i add? | 09:53 |
ernstp | i have a problem with startup mounting | 09:53 |
jtan325 | um | 09:53 |
jtan325 | just the commands you want | 09:53 |
anatole | how can i have ubuntu to run a command (and not a program) at startup? | 09:53 |
jago25_98 | jtan325: what the diff between profile and bashrc? | 09:53 |
yuacht | ernstp, what problem is that? | 09:53 |
djp | jtan325: is it just EDITOR=editorname | 09:53 |
jtan325 | no | 09:53 |
ernstp | ubuntu says /dev/hdc* doesn't exist at start (/dev/sda is my start device) | 09:53 |
jtan325 | export EDITOR=editorname | 09:53 |
Poromies | jtan325: i tried breezy out, and found it to be very unstable and to have very limited packages available (64bit).. so im back with hoary, though im running on breezy kernell 2.6.12-3 | 09:53 |
hondje | ? | 09:54 |
yuacht | ernstp, i have that problem too. just do sudo mount -a when you enter gnome, isn't that much of a hazzle | 09:54 |
hondje | What's $EDITOR for? | 09:54 |
jtan325 | jago25_98, the profile is only "activated" when you login | 09:54 |
djp | jtan325: ok thanks. do i put that command at the end of the bashrc file? | 09:54 |
ernstp | I have the necessary modules in /etc/modules and the devices show up after boot | 09:54 |
jtan325 | sure | 09:54 |
jtan325 | jago25_98, when you login through the shell | 09:54 |
jtan325 | .bashrc is done when you login through the pretty login screen | 09:54 |
djp | jtan325: cheers for your advice | 09:54 |
yuacht | ernstp, you can even do a startup script that gnome exec | 09:54 |

=== obtibu [~obtibu@69.88.4.178] has joined #ubuntu | ||
ernstp | yuacht, aaah, I think it's MUCH hazzle :-) | 09:55 |
jtan325 | it sets the default editor right | 09:55 |
jtan325 | i think its vim by default | 09:55 |
yuacht | ernstp, =) | 09:55 |
jtan325 | i like emacs | 09:55 |
jtan325 | so that's what i do | 09:55 |
ratl3 | jtan325: emacs sucks | 09:55 |
ernstp | yuacht, I could. but it needs root. got my mp3's there, and like to save rhythmbox in my session | 09:55 |
hondje | There's no default | 09:55 |
jtan325 | well | 09:55 |
hondje | I don't get it....emacs <foo> doesn't work? | 09:55 |
jtan325 | if you did something like "cvs commit XXX.txt" | 09:55 |
djp | jtan325: emacs, that is the editor i want to use as default! | 09:56 |
nikkia | jtan325: isn't the default 'EDITOR' nano ? | 09:56 |
hondje | oooooh | 09:56 |
ernstp | yuacht, guessing you're running breezy | 09:56 |
jtan325 | it would have to popup some editor so you would add the message comment | 09:56 |
djp | nikkia: i think it is | 09:56 |
yuacht | ernstp, nopes, hoary | 09:56 |
jtan325 | ratl3, what's wrong with emacs | 09:56 |
jtan325 | i am going to try learning vim soon | 09:56 |
Brydenn[WU] | jago25_98: i dont see any tools > themes anywhere in the firefox dir | 09:56 |
nikkia | i hate nano, reminds me too much of 1995 and using pine religiously :) | 09:56 |
jtan325 | but that's what i got started with in school | 09:56 |
=== tium [~LaLu@dsaf2.net1.nerim.net] has joined #ubuntu | ||
nikkia | emacs is great, but, its not suitable for casual editing, if you need an editor you start when you login, and it stays running til you logout, emacs is perfect ;) | 09:57 |
jtan325 | anyway i am going to go home, finally got this problem fixed at work | 09:57 |
ernstp | yuacht, really? worked nice in hoary for me | 09:57 |
ratl3 | jtan325: nothing, i just learned vim first | 09:57 |
jtan325 | later all | 09:57 |
ratl3 | jtan325: so, it sucks | 09:57 |
nikkia | starting emacs, making a 1 line edit, quitting emacs, isn't efficient :) | 09:57 |
jtan325 | haha ratl3 | 09:57 |

HiddenWolf | My advice as far as computers goes, is do not tell anyone that anything is better than the way they do it now. All you'll succeed in doing is changing peoples habits because 'the expert says so' and ending up with frustrated noobs because they don't understand why or how they are working this way. | 11:53 |

aaron_ | jtan325: There is a pre-bundled package in Ubuntu called Music player | 01:53 |
xabbu | jtan325, beep-media-player. The player that follows Ubuntu per default. | 01:53 |
yuacht | jtan325, amarok, rythmbox | 01:53 |
xabbu | Music Player. | 01:53 |
jtan325 | to play mp3's??? | 01:53 |
Whistler | jep | 01:53 |
jtan325 | i mean, you have to install plugins right | 01:54 |

aaron_ | jtan325: no? | 01:54 |

aaron_ | jtan325: plugin for what? | 01:54 |
krueger | uhm | 01:54 |
Leliel_Stormhawk | anyone know anything about getting a soundbalster audigy2 zs to work with ubuntu? | 01:54 |
snowblink | me, it has to do with xscreensaver. You are aware that you can set lock screen using normal keys & keyboard shortcuts? | 01:55 |
jtan325 | plugins to play mp3's | 01:55 |
Seveas | jtan325, only gstreamer-based applications need a plugin, xine/xmms have it built-in | 01:55 |
jtan325 | don't really care about the player itself | 01:55 |
aaron_ | xabbu: do you use beep-media-player? does it have a media library? | 01:55 |

Seveas | modules solve this | 02:59 |
dbernar1 | welcome, thats not a fix tho, ask yuour network admin if anything is wrong with the network, and if not, ask him for the nameserver. | 02:59 |
Leliel_Stormhawk | Seveas, i've allready had to do it more than once | 02:59 |
berkes | KhaBal, that cannot be said in one sentence | 03:00 |
dbernar1 | jtan325: I think it just did not come up. DHCP can screw up, for this or that reason. | 03:00 |
corza | KhaBal, when i change nv to nvidia, and remove dri etc.. it displays EXTREMELy blurry,, faded squinting very close to the screen to actually see what it has on the monitor, the only way i could see was changing xorg back to nv | 03:00 |
KhaBal | berkes: lol | 03:00 |
dbernar1 | I thnk next time you sign in, it will work. | 03:00 |
Leliel_Stormhawk | Seveas, what breaks, if you use nvidia.com drivers? | 03:00 |
Seveas | Matthew, have you maybe removed a disk from your system..? | 03:00 |

dbernar1 | well, not even gurus, but, yeah, a noob is more lost in debian. | 03:00 |
KhaBal | corza: did you try looking at ubuntu forums, google? | 03:01 |
topyli | Matthew: when does it fail? do you see the boot loader? | 03:01 |

Seveas | rob^, complete nonsense... | 03:01 |
KhaBal | berkes: i see :) but anyone could use debian | 03:01 |
berkes | rob^, not really | 03:01 |
jtan325 | dbernar1: so i should just log out and log back in? | 03:01 |
dbernar1 | cause you are looking up DNS in Canada:) | 03:01 |
Leliel_Stormhawk | Seveas, installing them properly is a completel walk in the park, unless ubuntu does somethign strange | 03:01 |
rob^ | hehe debian vs ubuntu wars | 03:01 |
dbernar1 | sure, try that, but remember the IP addresses of teh DNS, so at least something works. | 03:01 |

rob^ | berkes, I used to be one of those debian desktop people | 03:02 |
KhaBal | i might try Debian one day sounds more powerful than ubuntu | 03:02 |
berkes | rob^, ubuntu even has a special server setup | 03:02 |
dbernar1 | any time network doesw not work, always reboot, try connecting several times. | 03:02 |
rob^ | yeah I installed that a few days ago | 03:02 |
Seveas | Leliel_Stormhawk, installing them properly is a walk in the park of you know what you are doing, but remember that new users usually are quite clueless about such things | 03:02 |

BobaFett | Hey guys ... anyone has had issues with rhythmbox? | 03:29 |
rasputnik | tbrenner : apt-get install xfce ? | 03:29 |
chrissturm | tbrenner, sudo apt-get install xfce4 | 03:29 |
SleepyEye | I'm doing it with ubuntu installer already. Just need server to allow access to passwordless account | 03:29 |
alicia | BobaFett, I am having problems importing mp3's | 03:30 |
CarlFK | SleepyEye - here is how I do all my installs: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LocalNetInstall | 03:30 |
gm78 | tbrenner, the version shipped with ubuntu is a bit out of date, u can get the latest version from xfce.org and it has a nice graphical installer | 03:30 |
rasputnik | SleepyEye : if you really are secured, you could look at r(login|sh|cp) | 03:30 |
dbernar1 | so, can you then do the other way around? like, have an ssh server on the Mac, and ssh -X into it from Linux? you can right? | 03:30 |
rasputnik | SleepyEye : (since telnet will expect a password, and they don't) | 03:31 |
=== TongMaster [~TongMaste@home.waugh.id.au] has joined #ubuntu | ||
rasputnik | dbernar1 : hell yeah, it comes with openssl | 03:31 |
rasputnik | *ssh | 03:31 |
rob^^^ | dbern: hey, can you reiterate your problem? I was semi-afk | 03:31 |
SleepyEye | I tried rsh but it wanted password even though account was passwordless. | 03:31 |
dbernar1 | not a problem, question. It is as stated above exactly. | 03:32 |
rasputnik | dbernar1 : if you have a VNC client, you can use that to get to your mac desktop too | 03:32 |
dbernar1 | meh, VNC, new...:-/ | 03:32 |
rob^^^ | you can ssh into a Mac and get at all the X windows apps, but not the OS X native apps | 03:32 |
=== dbernar1 lazy | ||
dbernar1 | aha, not the Mac apps, makes sense, cause they are not on X. | 03:32 |
rasputnik | SleepyEye : you need the whole hosts.equiv voodoo. I'd look at ssh RSA keys with blank passwords if i was you | 03:32 |
rob^^^ | (btw, anyone know a quick and easy way to grep backlog in Xchat? | 03:32 |

SleepyEye | rasputnik: Thanks, I was hoping to avoid anything that complicated. I'm thinking about possibly doing it via an NFS share from the server. | 03:33 |
BobaFett | Guys ... how can I clear out rhythmbox's configuration? I start it up and it freezes, and if I try to reinstall, it just keeps doing the same... | 03:34 |

=== peca [~peca@82.202.116.207] has left #ubuntu ["Ukonuji"] | ||
rob^^^ | CarlFK: you could probably do it via xrandr over ssh before connecting | 03:36 |
SleepyEye | What I don't get is making passwordless accounts work on other linux distro's is easy. Why is it such on ordeal with Ubuntu. | 03:36 |
CarlFK | it is for a friend that for some reason likes the gui better than a shell | 03:36 |
rob^^^ | if I remember correctly, it used to be changing depth/dimensions used to cause the client to crap out | 03:36 |
cafuego | CarlFK: Tell him to buy a decent screen ;-) | 03:36 |
rasputnik | I used tightvnc all over the place a while back. It had a vncserver script that setup XVNC and the required forwarding. You could pass Xvnc a custom XF86Config if you want and set whatever resolution you like | 03:36 |

Justin | occy: install totem-xine ? | 03:38 |
occy | Bastien is a friend of mine... but... heh | 03:38 |

BobaFett | Guys ... how can I clear out rhythmbox's configuration? I start it up and it freezes, and if I try to reinstall, it just keeps doing the same... | 03:38 |
occy | Justin, shouldn't totem (that ships with Ubuntu) actually DO something? | 03:38 |
Justin | occy: or gstreamer0.8-vorbis ? | 03:38 |

HiddenWolf | cion, why would you want to use a firewall on a system that doesn't have any open ports? | 04:11 |

mjr | cion, to your second: Linux 2.6.10 (patched version) | 04:12 |
cion | so i don't need firewall? | 04:12 |
HiddenWolf | cion, firewalls block open ports - ubuntu has no open ports by default, so there is nowhere for any hacker to break into, thus you should not need a firewall | 04:12 |

Luke | Fade: i've never used those before... what is it? | 05:00 |
tommi^ | Fade, actually in the description of nvidia-kernel-source, it says: This package is not needed on an Ubuntu system because a pre-compiled kernel module is supplied by the linux-restricted-modules packages. | 05:00 |
Fade | ah, well, there you go. ;) | 05:00 |

Fade | take my advice with a pinch of salt; I'm a debian guy. my powerbook is my first ubuntu machine. ;) | 05:04 |
Fade | Luke -- yes | 05:04 |
s1m0 | but is there the root "user"? | 05:04 |

Luke | Fade: yea - prettified debian | 05:04 |
billytwowilly | so is it normal for the ecalendar synchronization conduit to give the appearance of synchronizing and then not actually synchronizing, or is the conduit in ubuntu just a steaming pile of crap? | 05:04 |

s1m0 | Fade, yes | 05:05 |
s1m0 | and i never used ubuntu or debian, only gentoo | 05:05 |
Fade | do 'sudu su -' and when it asks for a password give your user password | 05:05 |
Luke | s1m0: i used gentoo and debian... i just dropped gentoo for ubuntu | 05:05 |
Fade | you will become root, and then you can set the root passwd. | 05:05 |
Luke | s1m0: you can set your root password and use su normally with "sudo password root" | 05:06 |
Fade | Luke -- I've used debian since 1997 or so. I recently have a gentoo machine because the debian amd64 port wasn't ready when I had an amd64 box. | 05:06 |

weasel__ | Could someone help me for a second? This is my first time with linux, and i am having some trouble with software | 05:38 |
Luke | Fade: i'm compiling my new kernel right now - this should fix my sound problems. Do you know if there's anything important in the initrd.img ? | 05:38 |
Fade | the only reason for initrd.img is to load disk controller drivers at boot time | 05:39 |
ogami1972 | wassup weas? | 05:39 |
Fade | so if your controller driver is built into the kernel, you can ignore it. | 05:39 |
weasel__ | i am trying to setup Synergy: http://synergy2.sourceforge.net | 05:39 |

ogami1972 | oooo | 05:40 |
Fade | no, as in the driver that controls the chip that controls your harddrive | 05:40 |
Fade | but filesystem, too. | 05:40 |
weasel__ | i downloaded the .rpm, did sudo alien to make it a .deb then did sudo dpkg | 05:40 |

Luke | Fade: yea ok - i've done that. I've just never used an initrd image before so i wasnt sure what was in it | 05:41 |
edulix | I've been trying to install FC4 in this computer (I like to test other distros :P). it didn't work, and now when I try to start kubuntu, I get: | 05:41 |
edulix | request_module: runaway loop modprobe binfmt-000 (5 times) | 05:41 |
edulix | I've tried to run reiserfsck --fix-fixable, --rebuild-tree, etc. I've tried with both kernels I had for kubuntu, always happened the same error. I've even chrooted from this knoppix cd to the kubuntu partition to install 2.6.11, and also happened the same error | 05:41 |
weasel__ | It said Unpacking synergy, then setting up synergy, then it gave me a shell again. | 05:41 |
edulix | what could I do now ? | 05:41 |
Fade | initrd isn't really needed unless you have to build a kernel that works on the most possible configurations. | 05:41 |
weasel__ | now i have no idea how to run it ogami | 05:41 |
edulix | maybe my problem is initrd related ? | 05:42 |

jasoncohen | i like the fact that ubuntu customized the sounds, gdm theme, gnome theme and background with their human theme, but why did ubuntu feel the need to remove gnome's default backgrounds and not include the industrial theme which is packaged by debian? | 06:09 |

jasoncohen | spikeh, the hoary unofficial howto is good to start with - http://ubuntuguide.org/#installnvidiadriver | 06:10 |
Seveas | jasoncohen, aptitude install gtk2-themes-industrial to install the industrial theme | 06:10 |

atrus_ | I'm having my first problem with Ubuntu.. it happens on a compaq v2311us laptop with an AMD Turion 64 chip.. The install works flawlessly, but once I reach X and logon, the computer hangs, requiring a hard reboot; also, the logon sound is slightly distorted, making me think this is a sound issue. Is there an install parameter for disabling sound? | 06:11 |
Seveas | I thought I ad tehem though... | 06:11 |

seb128 | jasoncohen: and we don't remove any default background that I know | 06:27 |
Darkside-XP | oh | 06:27 |
Darkside-XP | i feel stupid | 06:27 |
jasoncohen | seb128, you sure, there are several backgrounds that debian included but ubuntu only includes the human backgrounds | 06:27 |
seb128 | jasoncohen: example? | 06:27 |
jasoncohen | for example i use GNOME-Aqua | 06:27 |
seb128 | what Debian package is that? | 06:27 |

jasoncohen | seb128, ok, i thought i had that installed | 06:28 |
jasoncohen | yes- that's the package | 06:28 |
tomchuk | jind: update-rc.d or install rcconf | 06:28 |
jasoncohen | seb128, i think that's installed by default through debian's gnome meta package | 06:28 |
seb128 | jasoncohen: it's the same package as Debian ... | 06:28 |
jind | tomchuk, thanks | 06:28 |
Seveas | jind, you might also be interested in BUM | 06:28 |
seb128 | jasoncohen: maybe, but we install ubuntu artwork by default, which seems to be fair to me | 06:29 |
Seveas | jind, see the 3rd party projects on the forum | 06:29 |
jasoncohen | seb128, yeah, and i like ubuntu artwork. i just wanted to see the default stuff to. i guess it was stupid of me to assume it was installed | 06:29 |
jasoncohen | i assumed ubuntu & debian used the same meta package | 06:29 |

tomchuk | you can use apt pinning to pin to the "Ubuntu" label | 06:46 |
tomchuk | you'd add the following to /etc/apt/preferences: | 06:47 |
jasoncohen | ok, but that's per package. there's no way to treat backports as a seperate version, right? | 06:47 |

littlefae | Well, if you are using your linux user account to access the samba share, and you make sure that the WinXP machine has an identical username/password combination, I found that, whilst still a little touchy, it worked much better than without a matching password/user | 07:37 |

Lorenna | http://www.slackware.com/book/ <--- I've used this and it works...but I'd really like know if theres a reason the umbuntu docs seem to be missing so much. | 08:10 |
Seveas | apokryphos, in that case: debs beat the stinking rpm hell... | 08:10 |
apokryphos | indeed | 08:10 |
ailean | this mostly just works out of the box, to be fair | 08:10 |
jasoncohen | apokryphos, most fedora users actually use yum- not sure why- it's slow and crappy | 08:10 |
flugh | ailean, i've moved from fedora to ubuntu at home | 08:11 |
highvoltage | Fedora does can use apt, but it doesn't have remotely the ammount of packages that ubuntu has. | 08:11 |
=== xMaximex [~xmaximex@modemcable186.214-200-24.mc.videotron.ca] has joined #ubuntu | ||
highvoltage | so you have to download dodgy rpm's or compile things from source a lot. | 08:11 |
apokryphos | jasoncohen: odd; it must have changed then since I last used it... | 08:11 |
Lorenna | like Sambe, smb, smbcong were my first 3 searches...so i gave up. | 08:11 |

=== Seveaz is now known as Seveas | ||
Seveas | especially if you don't know how to fix things like this | 08:13 |
ailean | the installation process then - can i install it on top of fedora, so that i can choose between them? | 08:13 |
Seveas | ailean, sure... | 08:13 |
Seveas | make a partition for Ubuntu and you're set | 08:13 |
oneiron | I forgot that #ubuntu doesnt support breezy | 08:13 |
=== DeFi is now known as DJ-DeFi | ||
apokryphos | ailean: Not really "on top", but on a different partitoin, sure. | 08:13 |
flugh | ailean, i'd not do it on the same / partition if that's what you are talking about | 08:13 |
ailean | just a single partition, and it'd pick up my /home partition from fedora then? | 08:13 |
Seveas | oneiron, it's impossible to support breezy... | 08:13 |
Seveas | ailean, if you tell the installer to: yes | 08:14 |
oneiron | cant i just get x started | 08:14 |
ailean | hmmm | 08:14 |

ailean | i'm not an expert on all of this yet | 08:14 |

ailean | how did you do that, hondje ? | 08:15 |
Lorenna | It may be young, I could see some things being missing or imcomplete...but major aspects like Samba never being in the docs once? it's a waste of time to even try that | 08:15 |

Seveas | jasoncohen, I did that too, but for the general public it's just too difficult | 08:53 |
Seveas | that's why a GUI (or better: an extension to Network Manager) is needed | 08:53 |
jasoncohen | isn't there already a network gui tool that can do that? | 08:53 |
jasoncohen | it's included with fedora | 08:53 |

torti- | ryan_: so you have a windows gateway which is supposed to do nat? | 11:51 |
jasoncohen | anyone know why ubuntu doesn't package boot-admin in gnome-system-tools? | 11:51 |
ryan_ | well, mt windows machine (this one) is on the net. I want to use a cat5 cross over between my laptop and pc to bridge the connection | 11:52 |

ryan_ | reason i faffing about like this torti- is because my modem is a usb adsl and its too much a messabout | 11:53 |
unome | webmin should have some boot-admin thingy | 11:53 |
torti- | ryan_: sure you want to bridge? | 11:53 |
ryan_ | yes torti- , for the time being :) | 11:53 |
ryan_ | torti-, ive configured the dows machine | 11:53 |
ryan_ | just need to know how to do so on my lapto | 11:53 |
ryan_ | laptop* | 11:53 |
jasoncohen | unome, yeah, but boot-admin was better | 11:54 |
torti- | why don't you use nat and set the windows machine as default gw on the linux box? | 11:54 |

ryan_ | torti-, i dont know what that means. only started useing nix/ubuntu 2 days ago | 11:55 |
ryan_ | i just want to do it so its [web] ---[pc] ---<cross over>---[laptop] | 11:56 |
ryan_ | whats nat ? | 11:56 |
torti- | ryan_: sorry i don't really have that much clue in bridging. nat is network adress translation, kinda 'network sharing' | 11:57 |
thoreauputic | ryan_: set the IP of the windows machine as default gateway on your laptop - in the network config tool | 11:57 |
ryan_ | uhm ok. | 11:57 |
unome | jason, I would assume so. Never used webmin with Ubuntu | 11:57 |
torti- | if it is nat which you are running this will surely help | 11:57 |
ryan_ | well torti- could you talk me thru it in pm please? | 11:58 |
torti- | sure | 11:58 |
