| Quest-Master | sinferno: Make sure you have universe enabled.. and next time you ridicule software, make sure you know the facts before doning the ridiculing :P | 01:55 |
| cafuego | torti-: Dunno, just adding it to the kernel source has always worked fine for me. | 01:55 |
| jasoncohen | sinferno, or apt-get install gstreamer0.8-plugins | 01:55 |
| cafuego | torti-: After all, you can do it to the ububntu kernel-source tree and then rebuild the ubuntu kernel. | 01:55 |
| sinferno | omg chill out man did u make the software or something i was kidding | 01:55 |
| sinferno | thanks anyways | 01:56 |
| torti- | cafuego: well then you need to recompile the kernel into a deb file (can ubuntu then update the kernel?) | 01:56 |
| cafuego | torti-: Of course. | 01:56 |
| bwlang_ | cafuego: doh... thought i was in debian | 01:56 |
| jasoncohen | sinferno, it has nothing to do with rhythmbox. mp3 is trademarked and couldn't be included in main | 01:56 |
| vladuz976 | goldfish, wanna know what did it? | 01:56 |

| eno__ | well to hell with it I guess, I will wait until they fix it for synaptic eh? hahahahaha | 01:56 |

| nalioth | ChurcH_of_FoamY: the command "diff" | 03:06 |
| jasoncohen | nalioth, the problem is that i still can't seem to find away to keep backports on my system without using all of it. my /etc/apt/preferences file allowed me to prefer ubuntu sources but then i couldn't install backports with -t hoary-backports | 03:06 |
| Razor-X | the creator of KPDF uses......... uses........ USES | 03:06 |
| stevenj | jasoncohen, the problem (once again) was firefox, it would not load, it gave an error when installing...it must be held back for a reason in BP, because you have to dist-upgrade | 03:06 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | ok how would i use it? | 03:06 |
| Razor-X | Mandrake!!!! nooooooooooooo!!!!! | 03:06 |
| bddebian | btech: Whats the issue? | 03:06 |
| nalioth | jasoncohen: i have BP in my sources.list, but its commented. | 03:06 |
| nalioth | ChurcH_of_FoamY: open a term and type "man diff" | 03:06 |
| jasoncohen | stevenj, yeah you do need to dist-upgrade | 03:06 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | k | 03:06 |
| nalioth | ChurcH_of_FoamY: you may wish to use it in a way we wouldnt suggest | 03:06 |
| jasoncohen | stevenj, it's using breezy's firefox which uses the firefox package - hoary uses mozilla-firefox | 03:06 |

| jasoncohen | nalioth, it's easy to do in debian with testing/unstable but considerably harder in hoary because with debian there are only two versions that i was using (testing & unstable) + unstable is a higher version so you could apt-get upgrade both testing & unstable at the same time | 03:08 |

| jasoncohen | XhyldazhK, it's hoary with updated apps- most of your system stays as hoary | 03:18 |

| Mobius | bddebian, what did you mean by native | 03:28 |
| jasoncohen | XhyldazhK, easy- he has breezy | 03:28 |
| ilmari | HuzzahItInstalle: uh, that was warty, hoary has 2.6.4-0ubuntu3 | 03:28 |
| bddebian | Mobius: I mean you didn't build your own kernel? | 03:28 |
| ilmari | HuzzahItInstalle: packages.ubuntu.com is really handy | 03:28 |
| jasoncohen | XhyldazhK, your problem is due to mixing breezy and hoary- it'll be fixed if you remove your hoary entries and add universe & multiverse for breezy | 03:28 |

| seth_k | XhyldazhK, yeah, Breezy isn't for you right now... no, I use the included drivers right now, which give me < 200 fps with my Ti4400 (3000 fps usually with the drivers) | 03:30 |

| eric__ | I see | 03:30 |
| Razor-X | reka: well, i'm pretty sure it's so | 03:30 |
| jasoncohen | XhyldazhK, you probably have xlibmesa-glu installed from hoary | 03:30 |

| === nalioth is now known as nalioth_wrkn | ||
| seth_k | jasoncohen, it's broken right now with deps | 03:31 |
| XhyldazhK | nvidia-glx needs xlibmesa-glu | 03:31 |
| jasoncohen | seth_k, ah, so it's broken in breezy | 03:31 |
| Xenguy | Longshot question: I'm trying to install a Citrix client on Ubuntu, but so far I have not been successful - has anyone here done this successfully by any chance? | 03:32 |

| HuzzahItInstalle | seth_k , if you're thinking it can't find the directory, what would be your suggestion? | 03:32 |
| seth_k | jasoncohen, depends on xlibmesa-glu but xlibmesa-glu is now called libmesa-glu1 i think | 03:32 |
| jasoncohen | XhyldazhK, so use nv | 03:32 |
| seth_k | but he does 3d modelling | 03:32 |
| seth_k | so meh | 03:32 |
| jasoncohen | until it's fixed in breezy | 03:32 |

| jasoncohen | it's currrently broken according to seth_k | 03:32 |
| seth_k | none :D | 03:32 |
| leitao_ | i know there is a package that says how much another package is beeing used. how is this package name? | 03:32 |
| XhyldazhK | it's easy to uninstall the official nvidia driver? | 03:32 |
| seth_k | HuzzahItInstalle, there is probably a path flag you have to set | 03:32 |
| jasoncohen | XhyldazhK, you can install hoary and have a stable system with nvidia acceleration or use nv in breezy until it's fixed and things WILL break in the future | 03:33 |

| XhyldazhK | nope... installing the driver from its script directly from nvidia.com | 03:34 |
| jasoncohen | is anyone here skilled in apt pinning? | 03:34 |
| Amaranth | XhyldazhK: It compiles a kernel module. | 03:34 |
| XhyldazhK | and forgetting ugly deb nvidia-glx | 03:34 |
| Amaranth | the deb isn't ugly | 03:34 |
| jasoncohen | i still can't figure out what pins i need to selectively install from backports | 03:34 |
| Amaranth | running that script is ugly | 03:34 |
| jasoncohen | based on version- not packages | 03:34 |
| Amaranth | pin backports lower than regular repos | 03:34 |
| Amaranth | then you have to actually choose to install the one from backports | 03:35 |

| cafuego | XhyldazhK: it's not "cool to run it coz the version numbers are higher" | 03:46 |
| jasoncohen | cafuego, breezy is worse than debian sid. | 03:46 |
| XhyldazhK | there are 2 ways for me, one is 'equivs' the another is to get the ugly nvidia installer | 03:46 |
| jasoncohen | cafuego, with, sid you can get along OK if you are careful about dist-upgrade'ing usually | 03:46 |
| XhyldazhK | cafuego, if equivs means to make an installed package to artificially satisfy a missing dependence, that is what I need | 03:46 |
| Amaranth | jasoncohen: X in breezy breaks at least once every other day | 03:46 |
| drew | bddebian, it says something else is using /dev/something and it can't play. | 03:47 |
| tiglionabbit | the nvidia installer worked for me on debian. Is there some reason it is so horribly ugly to you guys in ubuntu? | 03:47 |
| cafuego | jasoncohen: Except for that time when pam broke ;-) | 03:47 |
| jasoncohen | though gnome and alsa broke within a few days for me after gnome 2.10 was added and then it was fixed in a few days | 03:47 |
| tiglionabbit | I have not installed ubuntu on a machine with nvidia yet | 03:47 |
| Amaranth | jasoncohen: sid is about to go through all the same stuff breezy is | 03:47 |
| bddebian | drew: /dev/dsp? | 03:47 |
| jasoncohen | Amaranth, lol | 03:47 |
| cafuego | XhyldazhK: equivs means checking documentation. | 03:47 |
| Amaranth | jasoncohen: But with debian there are people who own packages, so it'll probably take longer | 03:47 |
| jasoncohen | own packages? | 03:47 |

| drew | xmms | 03:47 |
| drew | totem | 03:47 |
| drew | anything. | 03:47 |
| drew | gaim has sounds. | 03:47 |
| jasoncohen | you mean they have many more maintainers- something like 1400 i think | 03:47 |
| drew | and the system makes noises when I click stuff etc. | 03:48 |
| Amaranth | jasoncohen: In debian every package has a maintainer, only that maintainer does things with that package. | 03:48 |
| jasoncohen | Amaranth, yeah, i know. i was confused by what you meant by "owned" | 03:48 |

| parkbench | following the guide i got further and further | 04:27 |
| drew | crimsun, what plug do I use? adn can I use oss w/ it? | 04:27 |
| Co_B | Asl pls | 04:27 |
| parkbench | i was able to install the ndiswrapper after finally opening synaptic etc | 04:27 |
| crimsun | drew: the oss output plugin for xmms (for xmms, of course). | 04:27 |
| jasoncohen | hmm- nautilus says i have 695 MB used in /home and df -h says i have 1GB | 04:27 |
| jasoncohen | what could account for the discrepency? | 04:27 |
| benplaut | parkbench: go to System>Administration>Device Manager | 04:27 |
| parkbench | but my main problem right now is a) it seems that both drivers are considered invalid, and b) when i try to do "modrpobe," It says operation not permitted | 04:27 |
| drew | crimsun, but do I type plug:surround something somewhere? | 04:27 |
| parkbench | benplaut: im already there, i was actually looking for an answer to your quesiotn -_-; | 04:28 |
| benplaut | oh | 04:28 |

| blah | then i edit the mp3 rips with audacity | 05:21 |
| parkbench | what would i do in order to change that, though? | 05:21 |
| reka | sayao: that's the package name: openoffice.org2 | 05:22 |
| bddebian | parkbench: I'm not sure what it is yet. Something is screwed up with DNS or something | 05:22 |
| reka | it's a metapackage | 05:22 |
| tiglionabbit | ChurcH_of_FoamY: then it's in /storage. So go look at the highest directory in your filesystem and go into the storage directory there | 05:22 |

| seth_k | blah, there is a deb package on opera.com | 05:25 |
| vladuz976 | bddebian, so if i wanna install xine let's say i just go sudo apt-get install xine\* | 05:25 |

| Tsunamii | Hi, can somebody help me? - I was wondering if there's an easy way to patch or update Ubuntu | 05:28 |
| seth_k | you bet! | 05:28 |
| seth_k | it's called Synaptic | 05:28 |
| bddebian | yojimbo-san: ?? | 05:28 |
| ksmurf | K ... next . Does anyone have any experience with wine? | 05:28 |
| seth_k | and it is in the System > Administration menu | 05:28 |
| chugga | tiglionabbit, not sure to be honest. havent had the need | 05:28 |
| seth_k | Tsunamii, just hit the Reload button and then Mark All Upgrades and you will be updated | 05:28 |
| tiglionabbit | chugga: what, do you only play .avi format? | 05:28 |
| chugga | tiglio, nah, mostly dvds | 05:29 |
| Tsunamii | oh, thank you seth_k | 05:29 |
| Tsunamii | is that it? | 05:29 |
| DonL | I install it, ksmurf and some programs work with it, and some don't | 05:29 |
| seth_k | it's that easy | 05:29 |
| tiglionabbit | chugga: yeah, but some people need to play other media formats =P | 05:29 |
| yojimbo-san | bddebian: man 1 hostname, and look in /etc/hostname file - used in /etc/init.d/hostname | 05:29 |
| Tsunamii | because when I put in my 66GT before, it won't boot up the GUI | 05:29 |
| seth_k | Synaptic is also what you use to install new software in Ubuntu | 05:29 |
| Tsunamii | so i changed to my gf2 | 05:29 |
| seth_k | just search for what you want and click it | 05:29 |
| Tsunamii | I see | 05:29 |
| bddebian | parkbench: try: "cat /etc/ hostname" and tell me what's in it if anything | 05:29 |
| Tsunamii | haha, I just randomly install files on my desktop :P | 05:29 |
| reka | Tsunamii: hang on...make sure your sources.list is "safe" first | 05:30 |
| reka | before upgrading | 05:30 |
| Tsunamii | what do you mean reka? | 05:30 |
| ksmurf | DonL .... I have one windows proggie left that I can't find an alteritive for. It uses a serial port. Do you think wine might work? | 05:30 |
| seth_k | reka, if he didn't know about Synaptic, I doubt he's changed his sources.list | 05:30 |
| seth_k | tbh | 05:30 |
| parkbench | etc is a directory, but hostname no such file or directort | 05:30 |

| seth_k | hard to uninstall | 05:37 |

| Xenguy | pressure_man: I disagree - the author is a professional, and many swear by it | 06:20 |
| IceDC571 | what?!? you need cedega for ut2004? w | 06:20 |
| seth_k | peet, if you want office apps, not games, use wine | 06:20 |
| IceDC571 | right..... | 06:20 |
| peet | warrior_: wine is a pain to isntall (at least on gentoo) | 06:20 |
| pressure_man | the author is clearly an amateur | 06:20 |

| warrior_ | peet, little easier with debian I promise | 06:21 |

| seth_k | peet, for office apps, cedega is no better than wine | 06:21 |
| Xenguy | pressure_man: do you write firewalls for a living? | 06:21 |
| pressure_man | just look at the script it generates, and you will see how much timewasting the packets do as they traverse useless chains that will never match those packets | 06:21 |
| peet | seth_k: really? :( | 06:21 |
| seth_k | peet, cedega's real advantage is its directX stuff | 06:21 |

| warrior_ | isn't there a quemu? | 06:21 |
| peet | so is installing apps the same difficulty as with wine? | 06:21 |

| warrior_ | jasmuz, stuck on a rowboat with no oars. I'm sorry to hear that. ut2004 runs flawlessly with settings maxed out | 06:22 |

| ksmurf | I'm not asking to be a jerk jino. I'm asking to see how much room you need | 08:44 |
| Amaranth | tiglionabbit: If you knew why you would think that was a wonderful idea. | 08:45 |

| ksmurf | I have seperate /,/home,/etc ant /opt | 08:45 |

| FlannelKing | rekr, are you sure youre not just missing the auto-timout of a hidden grub menu? | 10:27 |
| tiglionabbit | Tsunamii: open the terminal, and say "wine" followed by the exe you want to run | 10:27 |
| Tsunamii | really? | 10:27 |
| ubuntu_ | so, xp cd is booting, and another recovery cd from toshiba is booting but this live cd isn@t booting | 10:27 |

| hkdev | rekr: is your ubuntu partition a primary? | 10:28 |
| rekr | Shouldnt it got straight into GRUB and default to ubuntu | 10:28 |
| LinuxRoc | Tsunamii: I would go to wine's site and they will help you out with extra setting if needed | 10:28 |
| Tsunamii | so basically it's an extension that i'll need to download? | 10:28 |
| FlannelKing | It isnt 'limited' to those applications, it depends on what the application actually uses | 10:28 |
| rekr | both the windows and the ubuntu / partitioins are primary | 10:28 |
| s0n1cm0nk3y_ | rekr if you went through the regular install it should have made ubuntu your default, at least it did for me | 10:28 |
| s0n1cm0nk3y_ | rekr did you reinstall windows or something, because windows can be a pain and hog the mbr | 10:29 |

| tiglionabbit | _root_: pam? first off, are they in the "desktop users" permissions group? | 10:48 |

| tiglionabbit | znh: there are other wiki entries for mplayer from source and such | 11:04 |
| s0n1cm0nk3y_ | rekr, during the install in the manual partitioning, theres a setting after you set the partition (when it shows the file system, the size and other stuff) that allows you to make the ubuntu partition bootable, im not sure if its needed, but im guessing that could be the reason for your mbr woes | 11:04 |

| misieq | i used movixisocreator under windows xp in order to create a bootable iso image with movies, but fat32 isn't able to store files larger than 2gb, so i had to make one ntfs partition, but when i used mkisofs, it created output which diseppeared right after mkisofs quited. i decided to use '-split-output' parameter, so mkisofs created few iso files of 1gb size. the question is how can i write them on dvd???? | 11:05 |

| ubotu | tiglionabbit: Bugger all, i dunno | 11:11 |
| s0n1cm0nk3y_ | misieq, rekr is having troubles with grub in his mbr, from what i gather when he has his windows primary set to bootable, it forsakes grub and just boots windows, and when he sets his ubuntu partition during the installation to bootable, he gets system error | 11:11 |
| tiglionabbit | ubotu windowsusers is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WhatWindowsUsersWant | 11:11 |

| Seveas | s0n1cm0nk3y_, sounds like he installed grub on the wrong partition | 11:11 |
| soulfly | if I want to use 2.6.12 on hoary, which are the minimum required patches I must download to not interfere with functionality in hoary? | 11:11 |
| s0n1cm0nk3y_ | misieq i was curious as to whether you had any troubles with installing to sata, cause im basing my ideas on my ide drives | 11:11 |
| misieq | yes, i had problems | 11:12 |
| Seveas | grub should be installed on the primary partition during install. If you mess with drive booting settings in the bios later, you will need to change the grub config | 11:12 |
| s0n1cm0nk3y_ | seveas from what i gather hes letting ubuntu do it, so im guessing its just installing grub in the mbr, as it did for me | 11:12 |

| gm78 | jamey3, good luck. canon makes crappy printers, their drivers make up for the problems. very few linux drivers are available. (i used to sell them). check linuxprinting.org for the printer, it might tell u a driver u can install in synaptic to make it work | 11:39 |

| gm78 | jamey3, linuxprinting.org doesnt even list the i250, i used to own the i350, its a paperweight in linux. avoid epson and lexmark on the lowend. samsung makes good linux compatable laser printers that are lower price and reliable (thats what i use). hp makes awesome low end printers, but has more expensive ink. brother is a really good brand name too | 11:44 |

| Seveas | Adreno: Adding Repositories: http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/AddingRepositoriesHowto | 01:10 |
| Seveas | Adreno: For a ready-to-use sources.list with all official Ubuntu repositories, go to paste.ubuntulinux.nl/38 | 01:10 |
| Seveas | Choris, why do you need one..? | 01:10 |
| Adreno | :-\ | 01:10 |
| sam_ | is there no "previous folder" or "up" button in the file browser except for pressing alt+up? | 01:10 |
| Choris | for a 3d game | 01:10 |
| Choris | i can't run it because it misses fb0 | 01:11 |

| Seveas | Choris, try: mknod /dev/fb0 c 29 0 | 01:11 |
| Choris | done | 01:11 |
| jtan325__ | what's the directory that X starts in, for ubuntu? | 01:11 |
| Choris | but that didn't help | 01:11 |
| Adreno | a repository is like a safe box right where files are stored? i just dont know where i type in paste.ubuntulinux.nl/38 | 01:12 |
| Seveas | Choris, now retrt, if it doesn't work: modprobe vesafb | 01:12 |
| jtan325__ | and also, how come .xsession doesn't seem to get loaded on startup? | 01:12 |
| nightswim | Adreno: /etc/apt/sources.list | 01:12 |
| Adreno | im guessing we are talking about the SPM | 01:12 |
| Seveas | Adreno, the easy way of enabling universe is in SPM | 01:13 |
| Choris | retrt: command not found | 01:13 |
| Choris | but done the modprobe | 01:13 |
| sam_ | Ah, there was another browser thing as well. Why is the crap file browser enabled by deafult? | 01:13 |
| Seveas | Adreno, go to settings -> repositories | 01:13 |
| hkde1 | has anyone using another file manager in place of nautilus? any recommendation? | 01:13 |
| Adreno | ok hold on i got dosbox installed now. it was simple. | 01:14 |
| Seveas | and make sure 'community maintained (universe)' is enabled | 01:14 |
| Seveas | hehe ok :) | 01:14 |
| Adreno | sweet | 01:14 |
| Adreno | hey thanks man. | 01:14 |
| Seveas | hkde1, I use mc extensively :) | 01:14 |
| hkde1 | mc is good :) | 01:14 |
| hkde1 | but are u able to replace nautilus at all? it seems nautilus is taking up quite a fair bit of RAM. correct if i'm wrong | 01:15 |
| Choris | there is /dev/fb0-file, but if i try to cat /dev/fb0, it says no such device | 01:15 |

| jtan325__ | but that doesn't work | 01:31 |

| jtan325__ | thoreauputic, you might be right. what i'm really trying to do is have X "source" my .bashrc when i login to fluxbox | 01:32 |
| thoreauputic | jtan325__: you can find it by typing `whereis startfluxbox` or `which startfluxbox` - it's a bash script that starts the wm | 01:32 |
| jtan325__ | would editing startfluxbox do that? | 01:33 |

| jtan325__ | but then openssh pops up | 01:34 |
| jtan325__ | asking for passcode/password | 01:35 |
| Nermal | Dreco, chmod 750 the home dirs ? | 01:35 |
| jtan325__ | that shouldn't happen, it doesn't happen in the terminal | 01:35 |
| jtan325__ | (because of keychain) | 01:35 |
| Seveas | jtan325__, use ssh-add | 01:35 |
| thoreauputic | jtan325__: this is more of an ssh configuration issue, i think | 01:35 |

| Nermal | just do that once with sudo | 01:38 |

| Dreco | k thanks lemme try | 01:38 |
| Nermal | actually | 01:38 |
| jtan325__ | thoreauputic, that's exactly what i have | 01:38 |
| Nermal | it would need to be 700 really | 01:38 |

| jtan325__ | that's ok... do you know where to start? | 01:46 |
| jtan325__ | or what files i should peek into | 01:46 |
| nikkia | kubuntu, for example, loads kde with: /usr/bin/ssh-agent /usr/bin/dbus-launch --exit-with-session /usr/bin/startkde | 01:46 |
| Adreno | bimberi: one sec. something different happened now. it seems to be upgrading as a terminal has opened. its been doing some unpacking and instaling. i think its completely upgrading | 01:47 |
| Adreno | there done | 01:47 |
| nikkia | jtan, at a guess, you need to find the config files for your login manager, whether its gdm, kdm or xdm | 01:47 |
| === maddler [maddler@81.174.27.50] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| jtan325__ | hmmm interesting...."/usr/bin/ssh-agent /usr/bin/dbus-launch --exit-with-session startfluxbox" is curretly running | 01:48 |
| Adreno | bimberi: i think i might have it now. brb | 01:48 |
| nikkia | jtan, then it looks like it should work | 01:48 |
| thoreauputic | jtan325__: but surely you can scp by making an xterm run your command? Like ' xterm -e mywrapperscript-for-scp ' ? | 01:48 |
| jtan325__ | but it doesn't | 01:49 |
| jtan325__ | and i could write a wrapper script, sure | 01:49 |
| jtan325__ | but that's not really how this should work | 01:49 |
| jtan325__ | because in that wrapper script i would have to do ssh-add right? | 01:49 |
| jtan325__ | and then ssh-agent | 01:49 |
| Adreno | bimberi: ok now its marked as green. but i couldnt find it in the archives folder in the var dir. | 01:50 |
| nikkia | jtan, erm, no | 01:50 |
| jtan325__ | sorry, i don't mean to sound/be difficult, thoreauputic, nikkia | 01:50 |
| nikkia | jtan, you could just set SSH_ASKPASS... | 01:50 |
| bimberi | Adreno: is there anything in there? | 01:50 |
| jtan325__ | what is SSH_ASKPASS? | 01:50 |
| nikkia | jtan, just out of curiousity, can you echo $SSH_AGENT_PID in a xterm ? | 01:50 |
| Adreno | bimberi: yeah a folder called partial and something called lock. | 01:51 |
| thoreauputic | jtan325__: I have never had to explicitly use ssh-add etc - i just have my keys on each box and it works transparently: I guess either I'm missing something obvious, or my needs are different | 01:51 |
| jtan325__ | nonexistant | 01:51 |
| === zukalk [~zukalk@81.84.240.25] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| nikkia | jtan, its a path, it points to a program that should be used to ask for a password, it allows you to use a GUI program to prompt for passwords/pass-phrases instead of the console method that ssh normally uses | 01:51 |
| jtan325__ | ok | 01:51 |
| jtan325__ | ideally, i don't want to be asked for anything at all | 01:52 |
| bimberi | Adreno: Strange. Here's a couple of commands to try... | 01:52 |
| magog | i know this is totally unsupported, but is it a know bug that breezy wont recognize an external harddrive? | 01:52 |
| zukalk | is there a command to add text (e.g. 1 or 2 lines) to an existing text file, instead of just overwriting it? | 01:52 |
| nikkia | jtan, you're not doing anything silly like starting xterm as a 'login shell' are you ? | 01:52 |
| bimberi | Adreno: "sudo updatedb" - should take a while to finish | 01:52 |
| === d0ril [~antbiotic@200-170-183-009.xf-static.ctbcnetsuper.com.br] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| thoreauputic | zukalk: echo "foo" >> yourfile.txt | 01:52 |
| jtan325__ | hmmm ok i use aterm | 01:52 |
| thoreauputic | note the double >> | 01:52 |
| bimberi | Adreno: "locate dosbox" - should (hopefully) find some files | 01:53 |
| jtan325__ | ok | 01:53 |
| jtan325__ | tell me what to try... | 01:53 |
| jtan325__ | i will use xterm | 01:53 |
| jtan325__ | but i don't know its parameters | 01:53 |
| nikkia | jtan, just start a plain xterm, with no parameters, and see if SSH_AGENT_PID is set | 01:53 |
| magog | do you guys know if my drive problem is a known bug? if not ide like to report it | 01:54 |
| thoreauputic | jtan325__: I use aterm as well - the syntax is the same: aterm -e "what-you-want-to-execute" | 01:54 |
| jtan325__ | nikkia, SSH_AGENT_PID is set when i start a plain terminal | 01:54 |
| === twilight [~twilight@82.53.113.254] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| jtan325__ | because starting a plain terminal sources my .bashrc | 01:54 |
| nikkia | jtan, ok, then it looks like your terminals are set to start with the equivalent of -ls | 01:54 |
| nikkia | which is nobbling the ssh-agent parameters | 01:55 |
| nikkia | jtan, you really really don't want a ssh-agent in .bashrc | 01:55 |
| nikkia | let the desktop's ssh-agent process handle everything | 01:55 |
| Adreno | bimberi: sudo updatedb didint turn up in the search. i tried it in the root command as well but nothing turned up... | 01:55 |
| jtan325__ | hold on. thoreauputic, when i do "aterm -e scp.... ", it still prompts for passcode, but in a console way | 01:56 |
| nikkia | jtan, also, i wager you're using "eval `ssh-agent`" or something to mimic your shell being wrapped by ssh-agent, and that is REALLY bad, as when the shell vanishes, it leaves a ssh-agent process lingering, and you get one per shell/window :) | 01:56 |
| bimberi | Adreno: No that command just updates a database - and has no output. | 01:56 |

| magog | so if the file were corrupt he md5 would be incorrect right | 04:19 |
| kbrooks | Seveas, yeah, and pure BS. reka gave a example... "configure sound properly" section. it's long, gives NO, ZERO, NIL, VOID, explanation of what the commands do, yet they work....and as for the repossitories, why suggest adding a new repo? | 04:19 |
| Ralc | nalioth, and how do i do that? | 04:19 |
| Proteque | doesnt sound work out of the box? | 04:20 |
| magog | Ralc, if you use k3b it will check the md5 when you load the iso | 04:20 |
| Proteque | there was a lot og noice untill I configured gdm to stfu I remember. hehe | 04:20 |
| reka | kbrooks: 'cos some of the packages they tell you to install aren't in main/multi/universe | 04:20 |

| Ralc | magog, i dont even know what k3b is | 04:21 |
| kbrooks | what's the point? | 04:21 |
| reka | kbrooks: exactly | 04:21 |
| nalioth | Ralc: once you find the md5 checksum, put it in the same directory as the iso image, and open a terminal and type md5sum file.iso | 04:21 |
| magog | Ralc, its a burning application | 04:21 |
| nalioth | Ralc: once it gives you a result, check the result with the checksum you got from the site | 04:21 |
| Ralc | heh i dont have linux installed, nalioth | 04:21 |
| nalioth | Proteque: sound on hoary is kinda screwed, so the answer is yes and no | 04:22 |
| nalioth | Ralc: what OS? | 04:22 |
| Ralc | nalioth, windows and im trying to get ubuntu on my laptop | 04:22 |
| magog | im sure in nero or alcohol 120 it shows the md5 | 04:23 |
| kbrooks | nalioth: i would never modify configuration files *to get what I want* if I were a new user | 04:23 |
| nalioth | Ralc: yes, i'm sure your burning applicatin can check the md5, just compare with the checksum from the d/l site | 04:23 |

| kbrooks | XandriX, i think so | 04:47 |
| kbrooks | try grabbing it | 04:47 |
| bigfoot1 | Well Gizmo allows you to make free calls to other Gizmo users, (just as skype allows users to call other skypers). But Gizmo's advantage is that it allows you to phone USA/Canada toll-free numbers. This is good for those of us not in USA/Canada. | 04:47 |
| nalioth | XandriX: yes there is | 04:47 |
| bigfoot1 | But Gizmo is only for Windows at the moment. | 04:47 |

| nalioth | bloodlust: six2one is speaking to you | 05:34 |
| jasoncohen | nalioth, i guess it pays to upgrade to the latest stable release. it simply becomes too difficult to backport security fixes on mozilla/firefox. the debian security team just gave up on mozilla 1.0 (3 years old!!!) | 05:34 |
| PMantis | nalioth, Ok, I'm missing something here, then... I simply cannot install some packages I want to - not available | 05:35 |
| jasoncohen | nalioth, no clue- i suppose the best way was to see many people are still downloading warty-updates & warty-security fixes | 05:35 |
| nalioth | Ralc: some users have a partition for /boot, /home /usr (they just go nuts with it) | 05:35 |
| nalioth | PMantis: what are you after? | 05:35 |
| bloodlust | six2one --- chmod 007 i dont think so | 05:35 |

| rasputnik | nalioth: don't you need an ext2/3 /boot if you want LVM on your root? or does grub support LVM now? | 05:36 |
| bloodlust | right on | 05:36 |
| jasoncohen | nalioth, but security support is supposed to last 18 months. and for the most part warty is getting all the same security updates as hoary- but both debian and ubuntu fall short when it comes to backporting fixes for mozilla/firefox - i think it's just very difficult | 05:36 |
| nalioth | Ralc: that is best, until you learn what would serve you best | 05:36 |
| === djp [~david@dynamic-62-56-58-90.park-s46b.dslaccess.co.uk] has joined #ubuntu | ||

| nalioth | rasputnik: sorry i have no clue what LVM is | 05:36 |
| PMantis | nalioth, I have to step down in versions, because of this: nxproxy: Depends: libc6 (>= 2.3.2.ds1-21) but 2.3.2.ds1-20ubuntu13 is to be installed | 05:37 |

| jasoncohen | nalioth, sometimes it's not about size- but location. i didn't want to wipe my old /home so i just took two partitions (with /home in the middle), made them physical volumes and created an LVM with both to act as one root partition. this was on a 30 GB laptop HD | 05:42 |

| apack_linux | wee :) | 06:04 |

| Eddie | setting up a server | 06:04 |
| jasoncohen | Eddie, yeah, type server at the install prompt | 06:04 |
| Davey | Eddie: try the server install | 06:04 |
| nalioth | Eddie: yes, do server install and then if you have to have a gui, use a lightweight one | 06:04 |
| jasoncohen | Eddie, it'll install ubuntu-base which is much smaller | 06:04 |

| ChurcH_of_FoamY | i think autoskip was a bad idea to use >.< | 06:06 |
| Mestapheles | any XFS buffs in? I know HFS+ support comes with ubuntu. Does installing ubuntu with XFS retain HFS+ support? | 06:06 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | cause now i can't tell whats being copyd and wahts not | 06:07 |
| nalioth | Mestapheles: linux can read/write to most anything but ntfs | 06:07 |
| jasoncohen | Mestapheles, ubuntu supports XFS | 06:07 |
| nalioth | ChurcH_of_FoamY: del the folder you are copying too and start over if you want to know for sure (and read the cp man page) | 06:07 |
| Mestapheles | so HFS+ suppport is not fs dependent? | 06:07 |
| nalioth | Mestapheles: no it is not | 06:07 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | kk | 06:08 |
| Mestapheles | great | 06:08 |

| Ralc | nice distro | 06:08 |
| Mestapheles | Or does the d-i allow for this in manual partitioning? | 06:08 |
| jasoncohen | apack, so, now you have ubuntu-desktop and ubuntu-base installed? | 06:09 |

| ChurcH_of_FoamY | like dvd images and video as well as some programs and songs | 06:10 |
| jasoncohen | Mestapheles, why are you using XFS? i use it on my mythtv backend because it supports fast deletes of files that are huge (10 GBs) | 06:10 |

| kbrooks | erm | 06:20 |
| nalioth | ChurcH_of_FoamY: that is correct | 06:20 |
| EiGHTBALLx | what is the root pw by default? | 06:20 |
| kbrooks | ChurcH_of_FoamY, correct | 06:20 |
| jasoncohen | well- backports isn't as stable of course | 06:20 |
| jasoncohen | but it's a hell of a lot better than breezy | 06:20 |
| mostrodibiscotti | so | 06:20 |
| nalioth | Blue_Summer: but don't leave the backports enabled all the time | 06:20 |

| jasoncohen | kbrooks, well, if you use backports and then remove it from your sources, you've basically cut yourself off from all security updates on that package | 06:22 |
| jmjones | DJLarZ: waht does it do? | 06:22 |
| jasoncohen | kbrooks, you would be better off doing apt pinning or just using all backports | 06:22 |

| PARTYcrap | Hi guys I have just installed Ubuntu but have problems, when computer starts everything is black cant see crap, I suspect its video driver problem , reinstalled it 3 trimes same thing managed to get into console but dunno hopw to fiux it and what is the default ROOT password? pleas help | 06:23 |
| DJLarZ | jmjones: It displays "larzlogin: " | 06:23 |
| jmjones | PARTYcrap: no root password. | 06:23 |
| alkuovi | I am going to install clamAV. I do not use any additional repositories (backports or marillat), does that affect to the security of the program? | 06:23 |
| jmjones | DJLarZ: and what do you do | 06:23 |
| nalioths_dog | PARTYcrap: You can read all about root/sudo issues on http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo | 06:23 |
| EiGHTBALLx | to get root tipe sudo -s and snter your pw | 06:23 |
| DJLarZ | jmjones: and i tried both my pw and the root pw | 06:23 |
| DJLarZ | jmjones: nothing happens | 06:23 |
| xTina | Are there configuration files for apt-ftparchive for an Ubuntu mirror available anywhere? | 06:23 |
| PARTYcrap | I dont care about that I want to get X to start all ois black...how to fix the video driver? | 06:24 |
| jmjones | DJLarZ: should be *your* password | 06:24 |
| nalioth | PARTYcrap: to see about your video, type "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" and choose the VESA driver (if you are running hoary) | 06:24 |
| DJLarZ | jmjones: i have to shutdown to make it work again | 06:24 |
| jasoncohen | PARTYcrap, there's no root password- the administrative password is the one you setup at install | 06:24 |
| PARTYcrap | didnt ask me to setup admin password | 06:24 |
| jmjones | if you don't want it to do that, you need to change the /etc/acpi/lid.sh script | 06:24 |
| PARTYcrap | only asked to setup user password | 06:24 |
| nalioth | alkuovi: the current clamav from official repos is outdated | 06:24 |
| jasoncohen | PARTYcrap, yeah, that password is for the administrator | 06:24 |

| alkuovi | do I have to compile clamAV myself? | 06:25 |
| jasoncohen | PARTYcrap, when you login you have normal user privileges. in order to get administrative privileges you use sudo and use your password | 06:25 |

| Dr_Willis | synd, you boot a xp install cd., and use its fixmbr command from the rescue mode. That will whipe out the grub mbr. and get your system back to booting windows (ick) | 07:13 |
| cmatheson | s1m0: go search google real quick, search for your card w/ 'linux' after it and see what you can dig up | 07:13 |
| cmatheson | s1m0: it's possible there is no driver, or that you need to get one from an external source | 07:13 |

| Dr_Willis | To play MP3s with Rhythmbox or amaroK, you must install the gstreamer0.8-mad package. This package is in the universe repository (see section 2 above). | 07:18 |
| Ralc | synd, cant find that option, using a danish version | 07:18 |
| s1m0 | cmatheson, i connect from the ubuntu computer with an other nick so i can paste the results? | 07:18 |

| cmatheson | s1m0: yeah, you need to run this on the ubuntu computer: 'lspci' | 07:19 |
| Dr_Willis | thats a cut/paste. :P i got no idea how forrect it is.. go change the wiki if ya want. :P | 07:19 |
| apokryphos | Ok, will do. | 07:19 |
| s1m0 | cmarqu, now i'm connectng here from ubuntu 2 seconds | 07:19 |
| cmatheson | s1m0: it will list all the pci devices on your computer, just look for the one that says 'Multimedia audio controller' (or something along those lines), and tell me what it is | 07:19 |

| concept10 | Why do you guys keep repeating that crap about ubuntu guide? | 10:34 |
| ogg | im running ubuntu minimal install + fluxbox. | 10:34 |
| tiglionabbit | othernoob: locate uses a database prepared by updatedb. It's much faster. Find has more complicated syntax, and searches on the fly | 10:34 |
| HappyFool | hussam: yeah. i'm not sure what the deal with start/stop bits and all that nonsense is | 10:34 |

| Arkainium | Seveas, grr. :P I searched google and it seems that most people who get this problem get a bunch of these errors in their syslog. I only spotted two. I *have* been getting some system lock ups lately though. So the only *real* way to diagnose is by checking the filesystem? | 11:44 |
| chromate | ivoks: yup | 11:44 |
| nalioth | eliUbuntu: the .ICEauthority thing is a known cross architextural problem, i dont think root has anything to do with it | 11:44 |
| tiglionabbit | Seveas: well you said there's lots, so you should be able to find one pretty easily, right? | 11:44 |
| Seveas | eliUbuntu, it's a believable cause... | 11:44 |
| chromate | ivoks: like i was saying it used to work before... though for some reason only once, then i'd have to reboot... but now it just doesn't work at all | 11:44 |
