| tiglionabbit | drew: I've used it | 02:08 |
| CookieNinja | alxwind, did you look in /usr/src for then ? | 02:08 |
| alxwind | i don't know what ecactly to search in synaptic | 02:08 |
| mbirkis | CookieNinja: i read the man... but it is not easy for us "new" guys... :) but it didn't exactly do what i wanted... it overwrites the file everytime... so i can't see if the server is up or down :( | 02:08 |
| drew | LasseL, yes, but it wouldn't let me use windows key as a modifier | 02:08 |
| Frank_dot | alxwind: search linux-headers | 02:08 |
| drew | tiglionabbit, could you help me set it up to recognize winkey as a modifier? | 02:08 |
| LasseL | drew, oh, but it will. I just did that yesterday | 02:08 |

| gverig | Aegir: Is that the only one that needs to be killed? | 02:25 |
| gverig | (font server, other crap...) | 02:25 |

| mebaran151 | and my favorite thing is to run Linux 64 bit edition .... (someone will die one day because of that choice) | 03:29 |

| mebaran151 | IO dont wnat to write a JIT compiler my self | 03:29 |
| mebaran151 | yeah | 03:29 |
| mebaran151 | but do they run 64 bits | 03:29 |
| Amaranth | yeah | 03:29 |
| mebaran151 | cool | 03:29 |
| mebaran151 | if I write a program in mono though | 03:29 |
| mebaran151 | I would need to cross compile it | 03:29 |

| mebaran151 | Amaranth, yep it does | 03:32 |
| mebaran151 | but when I run the compiler | 03:33 |

| mebaran151 | it isnt like compiling C right | 03:33 |
| pepsix | MrJangles, gconf-editor? | 03:33 |

| Amaranth | yeah | 03:33 |
| tiglionabbit | rc51woody: yes you can, but you'll have to restore grub after you do it | 03:33 |

| mebaran151 | aio, but why does C# suck | 03:36 |
| MrJangles | ah yes i can | 03:36 |
| mebaran151 | looks interesting | 03:37 |
| Adross | tiglionabbit, i did | 03:37 |
| pgavin | mebaran151, well, the only C# reference implementation is closed source | 03:37 |

| aio | Amaranth 4) it is *way* too strongly typed despite what they are tying to accomplish in version 5 | 03:37 |
| pgavin | mebaran151, but there are multiple open source implementations of unix that can be used as a reference | 03:37 |
| Will_ | It's easy to code java without an ide | 03:37 |
| tiglionabbit | Adross: um, if you mount a partition as /home it should replace it, but you wont be able to access the things in there anymore. You should set it in your fstab | 03:37 |
| mebaran151 | why cant we use Mono.net as a reference | 03:37 |
| Will_ | Unless you count vim as an ide | 03:37 |
| goatse | ubuntu doesnt like my laptop =( | 03:37 |
| mebaran151 | once the project matures a little more | 03:37 |
| mebaran151 | it seems it will be reference enoguh | 03:37 |
| tiglionabbit | goatse: and I don't like your website | 03:37 |
| aio | mebaran151 c# sucks because 1) its primary patron is Microsoft. this is a good thing but the negative, i think, outweigh it. | 03:37 |
| arentie | LimeWire states that my "Quality" is Disconnected, but I can search for files; however, I cannot download anything | 03:37 |

| Amaranth | it's mature right now | 03:38 |
| aio | mebaran151 2) same thing goes for c# as java on the whole IDE thing | 03:38 |
| Adross | tiglionabbit, won't be able to access the things in which? MY old partition which i just mounted in /home, or the home folder it replaced? | 03:38 |
| MrJangles | i can change the default one, but not the one for my profile | 03:38 |
| aio | mebaran151 3) same thing goes for c# as java on static typing | 03:38 |
| Amaranth | unless you need security zones or System.Windows.Forms | 03:38 |
| tiglionabbit | Adross: folder it replaced | 03:38 |
| aio | mebaran151 4) same thing goes for c# as java on actually getting stuff done | 03:38 |
| Adross | ah k, fine with me | 03:38 |
| Adross | just reinstalled u see | 03:38 |
| Amaranth | aio: Have you ever worked on a major project in Java or C#? | 03:39 |
| pgavin | mebaran151, plus, C# has lots of windows specific details which would have to be emulated in mono | 03:39 |
| Adross | do i have to do it outside of x? | 03:39 |
| Amaranth | pgavin: Not really true at all. | 03:39 |
| arentie | does anyone know anything about LimeWire? | 03:39 |
| aio | Amaranth yes. i did a small part of the dev and a huge part of the QA on a 100,000 LOC project in java | 03:39 |

| mebaran151 | pgavin, eh that is true | 03:39 |
| Amaranth | ah, you got stuck with the shit job, of course you hate java | 03:40 |
| mebaran151 | i just dont want to write in bare C | 03:40 |
| mebaran151 | and C# looks sort of neet | 03:40 |
| aio | Amaranth deployed to BEA | 03:40 |
| MrJangles | hmm, it might not have to do with the bg image.. it opens, it displays everything for a split second, and closes | 03:40 |
| MrJangles | any ideas? | 03:40 |
| aio | Amaranth ummm....no - java just sucks. i could've had a bigger part of the dev work, but i didn't want to work with java. | 03:40 |
| mebaran151 | so what do you guys think I should use | 03:41 |
| aio | MrJangles did you try the xterm thing? | 03:41 |
| mebaran151 | I want to build a pretty complex web application | 03:41 |
| rainingzigzags | can ubuntu be installed on a modded xbox? | 03:41 |
| MrJangles | yes, and it opens the terminal, but as root | 03:41 |
| mebaran151 | I prototyped in Ruby which is uber neat | 03:41 |
| Amaranth | The most I've ever done with Java is bugfixes on a project, so I can't argue there. | 03:41 |
| pgavin | the OSS implementation of C# isn't any better than any OSS implementation of Java, and all of them are incomplete and of limited utility atm | 03:41 |
| mebaran151 | all of you should try it; one of the more sensibly designed language | 03:41 |
| aio | MrJangles any errors? | 03:41 |
| Amaranth | But I've done some work with C# and it's not bad at all. | 03:41 |
| MrJangles | no | 03:41 |
| aio | mebaran151 i'd take a peek at python | 03:41 |
| mebaran151 | I know python | 03:41 |
| Amaranth | I prefer Python and always will but C# has a place. | 03:41 |
| mebaran151 | I hate python | 03:41 |
| mebaran151 | because Ruby can do eveyrthing python can do | 03:41 |
| MrJangles | but i cant run a terminal unless i'm root | 03:41 |
| mebaran151 | except it feels better thought out | 03:42 |
| crimsun | there is no single high level language that does everything well | 03:42 |
| tiglionabbit | MrJangles: what? | 03:42 |
| pgavin | mebaran151, well, both are turing complete :) | 03:42 |
| Amaranth | pgavin: Stop speaking about things you know nothing about. | 03:42 |
| pgavin | Amaranth, lol | 03:42 |
| MrJangles | i can open the root terminal fine | 03:42 |
| mebaran151 | pgavin, yep both are turing complete | 03:42 |
| aio | MrJangles yeah - what? | 03:42 |
| Amaranth | pgavin: Mono is more than complete enough to be usable. | 03:42 |
| MrJangles | but the regular terminal will not open | 03:42 |
| mebaran151 | I woudl hope | 03:42 |
| MrJangles | it closes right away | 03:42 |
| tiglionabbit | MrJangles: right-click your desktop and click on "launch terminal" | 03:42 |
| aio | MrJangles can you open xterm as non-root? | 03:42 |
| mebaran151 | crimsun, but I think Ruby has a better design | 03:42 |
| tiglionabbit | MrJangles: oh, okay, you must have done something to your .bashrc | 03:42 |
| Amaranth | mebaran151: You think _Ruby_ is better thought out? | 03:42 |
| MrJangles | yup, closes right away | 03:42 |
| mebaran151 | not than C# | 03:43 |
| mebaran151 | but the syntax is SO nice | 03:43 |
| Amaranth | mebaran151: Hey, where can I get that crack? | 03:43 |
| MrJangles | suggestions? | 03:43 |

| xuniluser | Good Day! | 03:43 |
| pgavin | Amaranth, the same could be said of gcj; and besides, where is the deluge of C# apps based on mono? | 03:43 |
| mebaran151 | crimsun, never said that | 03:43 |
| crimsun | mebaran151: didn't say you did | 03:43 |
| mebaran151 | that is why I am looking into Mono | 03:43 |

| === scsponger [~matt@68.115.123.41] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| mebaran151 | aio, I liked perl too until I found ruby | 03:43 |
| mebaran151 | so I guess that might be why | 03:43 |
| crimsun | well, perl did strongly influence ruby's early development | 03:43 |
| aio | mebaran151 i liked perl too, until i tried to do OO | 03:44 |
| Will_ | perl is always there, and always easy | 03:44 |
| xuniluser | What password would I enter when asked after i clicked on the "add/remove programs"? I tried the root password and it doesn't work. Thanks | 03:44 |
| mebaran151 | aio, yep | 03:44 |
| mebaran151 | exactly | 03:44 |
| crimsun | anyhow, this is all great, but let's help with some Ubuntu issues, eh? | 03:44 |
| aio | mebaran151 then i found Python and haven't looked back since. | 03:44 |
| mebaran151 | I tried python | 03:44 |
| scsponger | Kyral... it worked I can see I have a blank disc in my drive... but I still can't seem to burn a cd | 03:44 |
| mebaran151 | the problem for me was whitespacing | 03:44 |
| mebaran151 | I love to put in random indents | 03:44 |
| mebaran151 | and that drove the python compiler nutty | 03:44 |
| Amaranth | pgavin: Well, there are a bunch of major ones you might have heard of. Beagle, Dashboard, Tomboy, Blam, F-Spot, and some more I can't remember the names of. | 03:44 |
| tiglionabbit | mebaran151: yes, python cares about whitespace.. | 03:44 |
| Amaranth | mebaran151: Remind me to never work on any code you've touched. :P | 03:45 |

| MrJangles | sorry, i'm new, i dont know how to look at it | 03:46 |
| mebaran151 | Amaranth, it still looks like a cool language, c# | 03:46 |
| scsponger | aio yes that is correct | 03:46 |
| mebaran151 | worth learning | 03:46 |
| mebaran151 | it also looks enterprise friendly | 03:46 |
| Amaranth | mebaran151: It is, but I always end up turning back to Python. | 03:46 |
| scsponger | the cd/dvd creator will not let me burn | 03:46 |
| aio | scsponger i had the same problem the past couple days. | 03:46 |
| Amaranth | mebaran151: But it's nice to put on a resume that I know C#. :) | 03:46 |
| tiglionabbit | MrJangles: I'd suggest you try and login as a normal user from the virtual terminal. Does it give any odd messages other than the MOTD? | 03:46 |
| mebaran151 | I think Ruby and Python are comparable | 03:46 |

| scsponger | it asks me to insert a 108MB? disc | 03:47 |
| mebaran151 | one,the guy who needs the code needs it to be closed src | 03:47 |
| Amaranth | mebaran151: Except Python looks nice and Ruby looks like a bunch of hacks to Perl. :D | 03:47 |
| MrJangles | i can run a terminal from another account | 03:47 |
| alxwind | is it available through synaptic? | 03:47 |
| aio | scsponger that's a little comforting that it may not be my hardware :-) | 03:47 |
| MrJangles | its only the account i'm in | 03:47 |
| mebaran151 | Amaranth, the ruby guys say the same thing about python | 03:47 |
| scsponger | aio... haha | 03:47 |
| aio | scsponger doesn't do that for me. | 03:47 |
| tiglionabbit | MrJangles: definately your .bashrc | 03:47 |
| MrJangles | when i changed the settings around to customize it, it wont open | 03:47 |
| mebaran151 | a hacked on Object oriented extension | 03:47 |
| scsponger | aio... oh? not anymore? | 03:47 |
| Amaranth | mebaran151: btw, you actually liked perl? | 03:47 |
| MrJangles | how can i fix it? | 03:47 |
| mebaran151 | eh | 03:47 |
| mebaran151 | it was usable | 03:47 |
| Amaranth | mebaran151: I liked it until I got up to about 500 lines of code. | 03:47 |
| Vortacist | alxwind: Probably, although I haven't used it on Ubuntu (just other Linuxes). You'd have to check. | 03:47 |
| scsponger | aio.. did you change anything? | 03:47 |
| mebaran151 | you need to write over 1000 lines | 03:48 |
| mebaran151 | and then you go | 03:48 |
| mebaran151 | hey, I can get this | 03:48 |
| alxwind | ok, ty | 03:48 |
| tiglionabbit | say MrJangles, can you Applications -> run application -> "xterm" ? | 03:48 |
| Vortacist | alxwind: You're welcome. | 03:48 |
| mebaran151 | at 500 lines I was angry too | 03:48 |
| aio | scsponger yeah - i rebooted couple times and it started behaving a little better, but i'm still concerned it may happen smoe more... | 03:48 |
| Amaranth | you write over 1000 lines and then you go "wtf does this do?" and then you stab yourself | 03:48 |
| mebaran151 | but if you get in the mind set | 03:48 |
| MrJangles | xterm is fine, root termianl is fine | 03:48 |
| xuniluser | i can't i play mp3 files in my new ubuntu 5.0.4 | 03:48 |
| mebaran151 | it is just like any other language | 03:48 |
| mebaran151 | and it can be run anywhere | 03:48 |
| tiglionabbit | MrJangles: but gnome-terminal messes up? | 03:48 |
| MrJangles | exactly | 03:48 |
| mebaran151 | Amaranth, I have two key problems | 03:48 |
| mebaran151 | though | 03:48 |
| mebaran151 | for this current project | 03:48 |
| MrJangles | it opens and closes right away | 03:48 |
| tiglionabbit | MrJangles: open xterm as you, and run gnome-terminal from it. Any messages? | 03:48 |
| Amaranth | good python code practically reads like psuedo-code | 03:48 |
| scsponger | aio... hmm... could you look at my fstab... and see if it makes sense... i'm still new to this | 03:48 |
| thechitowncubs | how can i remove an unempty directory with the CLI FTP client? | 03:48 |
| MrJangles | thats fine, but it runs as root | 03:49 |
| mebaran151 | I need to be able to | 03:49 |
| MrJangles | it doesnt run as my profile | 03:49 |
| aio | scsponger sure | 03:49 |
| tiglionabbit | MrJangles: don't run it as root | 03:49 |
| aio | scsponger paste to pastebin | 03:49 |
| xuniluser | what should i do? I can't play mp3 with the new ubuntu | 03:49 |
| MrJangles | it wont give me an option\ | 03:49 |
| mebaran151 | obfuscate my code | 03:49 |
| MrJangles | let me log in and out again and try it | 03:49 |
| mebaran151 | so that it can be part of this closed source deal | 03:49 |
| tiglionabbit | MrJangles: when you just do applications -> run, and type in xterm, that shouldn't end up as root... | 03:49 |

| blmartin771 | Can I make gnome terminal transparent? | 03:54 |
| mebaran151 | I might try diveintopython | 03:55 |

| scsponger | aio... I have... but I can't seem to find a how-to with ubuntu and cd writers | 03:55 |
| tiglionabbit | blmartin771: you can set the background to mimic your desktop background | 03:55 |

| tiglionabbit | mebaran151: this one's not so bad =) | 03:57 |
| aru | ok, wheres the reference for compiling a kernel | 03:57 |
| aio | scsponger none...you could try rebooting. that probably won't help you. you could try removing the hardware configuration from wherever you can and reboot and see if ubuntu reconfgirues it... | 03:57 |
| hanasaki | crimsun: bummer.. so is there someway to get it going? or i have to wait? | 03:57 |
| Amaranth | mebaran151: Like using exec or other potentially insecure things. | 03:57 |
| Amaranth | mebaran151: or using lambda's | 03:57 |

| mebaran151 | oh using exec would be a very silly thing to do | 03:57 |
| aru | crimsun, again I have no idea what the means | 03:58 |
| mebaran151 | what does map() or filter do in python? | 03:58 |
| aio | mebaran151 exec() has its places.... | 03:58 |
| mebaran151 | yeah | 03:58 |
| mebaran151 | just the places are few are far between | 03:58 |

| === The_bellman [~rjs@dsl.shannon.id.au] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| mebaran151 | not iterators | 03:58 |
| Amaranth | If exec is the answer you're asking the wrong question. | 03:58 |
| Amaranth | (stolen from the PHP saying) | 03:58 |
| aio | mebaran151 map() calls the specified function on a specified list. | 03:59 |
| tiglionabbit | mebaran151: I'd guess it does the same thing as in perl, but I'm not quite sure. In perl it let you write a section of code, and have it run for multiple variables it would substitute in | 03:59 |
| mebaran151 | oh | 03:59 |
| mebaran151 | cool | 03:59 |
| sproingie | guido wants to get rid of map in favor of list comprehensions. bugger all... | 03:59 |
| mebaran151 | well not really cool | 03:59 |
| aio | Amaranth not necessarily. it can get you into trouble, but if you manage it well it can serve you well. | 03:59 |
| Amaranth | If eval() is the answer, you're almost certainly asking the wrong question. -- Rasmus Lerdorf, BDFL of PHP | 03:59 |

| mebaran151 | had to compile the ruby one | 04:00 |
| scsponger | aio... see thats the thing... when I recently put in the new burner... I was under the impression that Ubuntu would have some kindof new hardware wizard. Something of that sort... But nothing ever happened. I installed gnomebaker... believing that maybe the writer was already installed. Gnomebaker acuatlly saw the drive... but I was unable to write to it, same holds true for CD/DVD recoreder. I've mounted the drive manually... Which I can now see, but am s | 04:00 |
| scsponger | till unable to write to it | 04:00 |
| tiglionabbit | Amaranth: lol, was just a stupid example | 04:00 |
| Amaranth | tiglionabbit: This is map Python 3 won't have map, filter, or lambda. | 04:00 |
| tiglionabbit | Amaranth: there are much better uses | 04:00 |
| Amaranth | err, this is why python 3 | 04:00 |

| qbasic | Anyone know whats going on here? I try to install Ubuntu on my HP Omnibook 4150 (laptop). The install goes well until it asks me to remove the installation CD and reboot.

| teferi_ | mebaran151: it can be a bit trying | 04:18 |

| mebaran151 | and getting anyone in community to tell me anything | 04:19 |
| mebaran151 | illicited only snide remarks | 04:19 |

| blmartin771 | is k3b the best | 04:23 |

| _0kills | cafuego, cool thanks man.. is there a wiki on how to do that? | 05:24 |

| bob2 | v[] L7r[] n: it's not, it's different. try both and see which you prefer. | 05:35 |

| bob2 | aceidia: you know that direct draw has nothing to do with X, right? unless you're using wine. | 05:36 |

| daybreaker | hey everyone. I just installed Ubuntu, and as my first trip into Linux Land, I think I'm doing ok. One final problem: I cant access shared folders on my Linux machine from a windows machine. I can see it on the windows machine on the network explorer, but it asks for a login to get in to the linux box. Any ideas? Thanks | 07:31 |

| gyaresu | daybreaker, you are supposed to go to wiki.ubuntu.com but you can also try ubuntuguide.org | 07:33 |

| Nermal | salapoliisi_, because killing services isn't as clean as using the service scripts | 12:42 |
| salapoliisi_ | Nermal: what's the cause of that? | 12:43 |
| Nermal | can leave lock files open, not shut down databases cleanly etc | 12:43 |
| salapoliisi_ | okay | 12:43 |

| Nermal | pasv, nfs ? | 12:44 |
| Nermal | or smb ? | 12:44 |
| pasv | ah I dont want to bother with smb so nfs | 12:44 |
| salapoliisi_ | Nermal: if you don't like them why are you helping them? | 12:44 |
| Nermal | pasv, then mount <ip>/<server>:/path/to/exported/mountpoint /local/mountpoint | 12:44 |
| Nermal | ie: mount server1:/home/foo /mnt/homefoo | 12:45 |
| ColonelKernel | ok I got the blue ubuntu wallpaper up | 12:45 |
| salapoliisi_ | is it possible to make ubuntu work as a wlan server | 12:45 |

| Nermal | data isn't encrypted iirc | 12:48 |
| salapoliisi_ | Nermal: what's that icon theme? | 12:48 |
| Nermal | you could use sftp if you want it encryped - nautilus supports browsing it | 12:48 |
| Nermal | salapoliisi_, erm.. just some gant icons | 12:48 |
| salapoliisi_ | okay | 12:48 |

| Blaamann | I would also love to get gaim 1.40 (it supports ICQ file transfers!), any Ubuntu/debian packages around ? | 12:50 |

| LinuxNewbie | the thing is i got this on my mind, is it possible for a person to stay on a network eventhough he is far awy, like 50 miles | 02:06 |
| feugan3333 | lol | 02:06 |
| bigfoot1 | Garrison, adwait, will apt-get have this version? I thought ubuntu automatically updates our systems. Please clarify. | 02:06 |
| adwait | LinuxNewbie: tht really depends on wht ur using to logon to the network.......u can be on the network from another planet provided u have the right methods/means | 02:06 |
| LinuxNewbie | like you have a pc, and you can connect to another PC | 02:06 |
| Garrison | bigfoot1, it might, or rather, I'd think it would. have to apt-get upgrade'd yet? | 02:07 |
| adwait | bigfoot1: it updates ur system if u run sudo apt-get upgrade.......otherwise it doesnt | 02:07 |

| LinuxNewbie | but you have to have a ISP for the internet to join the network | 02:09 |
| adwait | bigfoot1: tht means a newer version not available with apt-get...i can install from deb, if u can find it | 02:09 |
| Jowi | LinuxNewbie, I think you are looking for a VPN solution | 02:09 |
| LinuxNewbie | can they stay connected without the use of internet | 02:09 |

| feugan3333 | LinuxNewbie: your not making any sense | 02:10 |

| adwait | bigfoot1: umm...google it, u might find the deb file for it.. | 02:11 |
| gustavo | reka, thank u, i will take a look | 02:11 |
| feugan3333 | LinuxNewbie: If you don't want to use the internet, you connect the computers with a private network | 02:11 |
| adwait | bigfoot1: google the name of the dependencies.....chances are u can find the dependencie frm the same place u downloaded the app | 02:11 |
| LinuxNewbie | yes kinda like that | 02:11 |
| gustavo | reka, prettieness is fundamental :P | 02:12 |
| Jowi | LinuxNewbie, if you do not want to use internet you will have to make your own network for example with 2 dial-up modems. but that is a use of good money for a crap service | 02:12 |
| === ex-parrot will be selling Cat-5s in the foyer after the seminar | ||
| LinuxNewbie | so VPN is the next best thing? | 02:12 |
| adwait | LinuxNewbie: like i said, run a dial in server on one machine.......and then dial in to tht machine frm the othr.......tht could work out to be expensive though | 02:12 |
| Jowi | LinuxNewbie, yes. VPN is what you want. | 02:12 |
| bigfoot1 | adwait, i have already found this deb file (http://kiax.sourceforge.net/), but this kiax program needs the libqt3c102-mt (>= 3:3.3.4). | 02:12 |
| LinuxNewbie | is VPN very secured? | 02:13 |
| Jowi | LinuxNewbie, VPN connects two local networks to eachother as if they were in the same network. VPN is very secure. | 02:13 |
| feugan3333 | LinuxNewbie: Yes very secure | 02:13 |
| LinuxNewbie | even though they are very far away from each other? | 02:13 |
| adwait | bigfoot1: http://packages.debian.org/stable/libs/libqt3c102-mt | 02:13 |
| feugan3333 | LinuxNewbie: err, if setup correctly | 02:13 |
| Jowi | LinuxNewbie, have a look at cisco's homepage for more info or wikipedia | 02:13 |
| bigfoot1 | adwait, thanks, but what do i do with that url? | 02:14 |
| Jowi | LinuxNewbie, VPN acts like if your computer in the USA was beside the computer in Europe | 02:14 |
| adwait | go there......select ur architecture, download the *.deb file | 02:14 |
| LinuxNewbie | thnx alot men | 02:14 |
| Jowi | Check wikipedia or cisco's homepage | 02:14 |
| LinuxNewbie | atleast i have some idea | 02:14 |
| adwait | bigfoot1: thn install the deb file, and then try installing the app tht u were originally trying to install | 02:14 |
| LinuxNewbie | ill try to research on VPN on google | 02:15 |
| LinuxNewbie | thnx alot guys | 02:15 |
| bigfoot1 | adwait, if i understand correctly, the app IS the deb file. | 02:15 |
| salapoliisi_ | can i change my 386 kernel to 686 with just apt-get? | 02:16 |
| adwait | bigfoot1: uuh no u dont understand...........whn it says it needs something (the dependencie), that means it needs a library, or another application installed........so u download tht other application or library (which again is a deb file) and then u install tht app u were installing.........got it? | 02:16 |

| bigfoot1 | rasputnik, i think i have good news! i searched "iaxclient deb" and found http://lists.debian.org/debian-wnpp/2004/09/msg00233.html. someone debianized the iaxclient files. What do you think? is it safe, appropriate for me? | 03:32 |
| kennef | I pose this question: With ubuntu definately becoming quite the flavour of the moment, where do users envision the distro to be in a number of years? | 03:32 |

| ed1t | nalioth, i got xp, ubuntu and suse installed, but since suse is the last distro i installed, the grub loader is from suse, if i format suse's partition, will i be able to get the grub loader for ubuntu? | 03:39 |
| EnsignRedshirt | reka: I'll do some experimenting with that. Strange that the problem only appears in firefox. | 03:39 |
| tanki | oga, it's better to break something right after a fresh install than it is 6 months later when you have everything customized | 03:39 |
| reka | kaktos: e.g. br.archive.ubuntu.com | 03:39 |
| zAo^ | ed1t, did you share the /boot? | 03:39 |
| oga7876 | true that | 03:39 |
| ed1t | i dont remember now | 03:39 |

I know I should have done it the other way around, but I was perhaps overzealous and used the occasion of replacing a broken harddrive to clear my computer of any semblance of Windows and to only install Ubuntu.

| ashok | guys, pls suggest a gud download manager | 04:45 |
| hmrocha | The simple solution is always have a terminal open. | 04:45 |

| Seveas | hmrocha, try ssh-add, close terminal, open terminal ssh-add -l | 04:45 |
| Nermal | ashok, please type properly | 04:45 |
| Seveas | what does that ssh-add -l say? | 04:45 |
| delire | hmrocha: this is why Seveas suggests using the gnome feature which makes the whole gnome session an 'ssh-agent' | 04:45 |
| Nermal | wget rocks :) | 04:46 |
| sJaM | hmrocha, don't you get a default ssh-agent if you log in | 04:46 |
| Seveas | delire, that was a mistake from me | 04:46 |
| Seveas | delire, the X startup scripts already do that | 04:46 |

| Seveas | hmrocha, if you did not restart X yet you might have a lot of agents lingering around, try killall ssh-agent and logout+login | 04:47 |
| Nermal | ashok, yah.. with -C | 04:47 |
| sJaM | ashok, just do wget -c | 04:47 |

| Gerrath | ashok, dpkg -i the downside to using dpkg to install a program over apt-get is it doesn't handle depenancies. The good news is if there are dependencys you just need to run apt-get afterwords and it will install them for you. | 06:03 |

| crimsun | swarm: simulations? You probably wouldn't want sound crufting in the background anyhow. | 07:47 |
| JDahl | Koby, so I had to shrink partitions with partition magic... it would be easier to just partitions your disk first with the live CD, then install winXP on one partition and finally install Ubuntu on the remaining partition | 07:47 |

| HappyFool | Chillout: is there not a 'setup.py' in the root directory source, i.e., the directory above Setup (~/Desktop/Bibus-pre-1.0.0a/) | 08:41 |
| lesshaste | eruin, interesting... | 08:41 |
| HappyFool | Chillout: otherwise, you can put setup.py up on the pastebin | 08:41 |
| ricosuave17 | isnt it easier just to download a package | 08:41 |
| ricosuave17 | isnt of using apt-get | 08:42 |
| ashok | well, it says only manual install possible | 08:42 |

| ricosuave17 | well cant u just download a package and install it | 08:42 |
| zukalk | that's what apt does for you | 08:42 |
| eruin | ricosuave17, yes, you probably could, provided you have all the dependencies | 08:42 |
| HappyFool | Chillout: if there's a 'setup.py' in ~/Desktop/Bibus-pre-1.0.0a that is the one to use to install the software | 08:42 |

| HappyFool | normal1: what do you mean by 'system icons' ? | 08:43 |
| ricosuave17 | say opera | 08:43 |

| dj28 | that doesn't make sense | 09:33 |
| gm78 | dj28, lol, waiting for my answer would have worked better than swearing at me | 09:33 |
| dj28 | why would ubuntu-base be empty | 09:33 |

| thoreauputic | u19809: hostnames and URLs | 10:56 |
| u19809 | I use CVS and CVS stores the name of the host in a file | 10:57 |
| u19809 | However when my laptop moves from behind firewall to outside | 10:57 |
| u19809 | the IP address of the cvs server changes. | 10:57 |
| u19809 | but the DNS name does not | 10:57 |
| u19809 | so I want to have say cvsserver in the CVS file and then | 10:57 |
| u19809 | have an alias from CVSserver to whatever the current IP address of the host is | 10:58 |
| thoreauputic | u19809: you can just map the alias to the IP in /etc/hosts | 10:58 |
| u19809 | yes but the IP changes and then I would have to edit the host file every time | 10:58 |
