| jtaylor | I add an ATA card to my system. When it boots grub, the linux kernel sees my onboard ide card AFTER the new ATA card causing my HD to show up as hde instead of hda which of course causes init to hang as it cannot find the root partition on hda. Any ideas how to fix this? | 02:42 |

| tanki | nice, i suck at woodwork | 03:08 |
| Burgundavia | harris|u, just drag the theme to the theme installer | 03:08 |
| Burgundavia | harris|u, can be downloaded at art.gnome.org or gnome-looks.org | 03:08 |

| Fughidabowit | well brings me to a different screen - but doesnt really give me any further options | 03:51 |
| malakhi | But if you want to actually USE your computer, then go with something else. | 03:51 |
| teferi | malakhi: just because you type "emerge foo" instead of "apt-get install foo" does not mean you learn more about how shit works | 03:51 |

| tfort | a stage 1 i eblieve install | 03:51 |

| adme | even then they give a very detailed handbook | 03:51 |
| teferi | even a stage1 isn't hard | 03:51 |
| malakhi | teferi, I'm not talking about just compiling from source. I'm talking about the manual configuration and stuff. | 03:51 |
| Howitzer | 'building the kernel' | 03:51 |
| teferi | it's just emerge this, emerge that | 03:52 |
| IIIEars | gentoo is heartbreaking | 03:52 |
| Howitzer | i mean | 03:52 |
| tfort | teferi, i know, i thought it was easy, but for people staying its hard, stage 3 is really simple | 03:52 |

| ICXCNIKA | Well signbarn, I am on a dialup connection. 37 hours of torture and anticipation | 04:24 |
| tanki | even if you maintain long uptimes you should fsck once every few hundred days | 04:25 |
| aarcane | signbarn, make a shared fat32 partition.. D drive on windows, and /media/d on ubuntu | 04:25 |
| tanki | infact it's even set in hdparm to run fsck on a disk every 160 days since the last reboot | 04:25 |
| signbarn | aarcane: that makes sense, but when i was configuring wine, it said it prefers to have read/write access to the system files of windows | 04:25 |
| aarcane | tanki, I'd like to see you fsck a mounted partition | 04:25 |
| tanki | obviously i'm referring to onboot | 04:25 |
| chibifs | All this talk about fscking and mounting | 04:26 |
| Howitzer | if i want to create a partition to use for backing up Ubuntu, (no booting whatsoever), how lrge does the partition have to be (average-wise) + what type? --(i'm using gparted) | 04:26 |
| aarcane | signbarn, you generally don't want or need windows for wine | 04:26 |
| tanki | there is no reason not to upgrade ext2 to ext3, there's no overhead and ext3 offers some things better | 04:26 |
| coolkev | resier4 is full working and intergrated into the minislack distro | 04:26 |
| signbarn | ya don't say... that sounds promising | 04:26 |
| tanki | infact u can even upgrade ext2 to ext3 without rebooting i think | 04:26 |
| tanki | but anyway, to each his own | 04:26 |

| Howitzer | like in 'a bleeding edge from the knife that has been used to chop off limbs'' | 04:30 |

| Howitzer | now i get it | 04:30 |
| Howitzer | \ o /. | 04:30 |
| coolkev | minislack is for intermidiate users and ubuntu is for everyone... and minislack is very light weight as u can see it features XFCE as it's desktop | 04:30 |
| chibifs | I've tried a few others, but they were completely insignificant. :P | 04:30 |
| aarcane | what exists in the way of Security in Ubuntu, I want to deny root access, and prevent booting whenever a specific USB key identified by a single file is Inserted | 04:31 |
| chibifs | XFCE is my favorite :D | 04:31 |
| sproingie | ubuntu doesnt really wow me with features, but it does "just work" more than most | 04:31 |
| chibifs | I release tweaks to xfce now and then. | 04:31 |
| goldfish | i liked xfce until i tried fluxbox. | 04:31 |

| Howitzer | what is vi/emac? | 04:31 |
| aarcane | sproingie, no su, no sudo, no way that anything can authenticate as root, likely at the pam level | 04:31 |
| Razor-X | Howitzer: vi is a text editor | 04:31 |

| Razor-X | still think DSL is awesome for what it does | 04:33 |
| Howitzer | oooh | 04:33 |
| Razor-X | highly reccomend it, even over minislack | 04:33 |
| ^thehatsrule^ | i used both, but i still havent found a machine for hoary permaenently | 04:33 |
| Howitzer | Minislackl looks nice | 04:33 |

| sproingie | cedega command.com | 04:34 |
| Howitzer | hmm | 04:34 |
| aarcane | sproingie, I think a pam module and a strong as sodomy root password would work | 04:34 |
| Razor-X | WINE works way better for that stuff | 04:34 |

| nickrud | I didn't mind leaving the torrent available to others, It seemed a good use of my money | 06:20 |
| nomasteryoda | if you open the ports | 06:20 |
| vladanian | When something's in high demand on a torrent, yeah, I max out my conneciton | 06:20 |

| Computer__Guru | knoppix 3.9 sucks | 06:21 |
| hondje | but the mirrors I use always max out my connection | 06:21 |

| calc | Computer__Guru: and nis sucks more than kerberos from what i can tell | 06:24 |

| pepsi | NerdGirl: have you tried doing dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg? | 06:24 |

| hondje | NerdGirl: that chipset works fine | 06:25 |
| Computer__Guru | NerdGirl: whats the problem? | 06:25 |
| hondje | NerdGirl: you're setting up xorg.conf wrong, probably | 06:25 |
| cyril_ | beagled is extra ^^ | 06:25 |
| pepsi | NerdGirl: doing that will ask you a bunch of questions and setup your xorg.conf | 06:25 |

| AlbanianLord | my videocard supports a 1600x1200 res | 07:31 |

| AlbanianLord | and i only get 1024x768 | 07:32 |
| Computer__Guru | goldfish: and i own a license to flash mx, fireworks mx, and dreamweaver mx, so when the linux suite comes out, ill be able to snag all three for $99 | 07:32 |
| guerrero | DonL ..there are commercial apps that are easier to use in osx ...like final cut pro and what not..but nothing that has no alternative a linux...its just harder | 07:32 |
| guerrero | to use | 07:32 |
| nickrud | AlbanianLord, either, your monitor is not capable of it, or, you have not defined it correctly in xorg.conf | 07:32 |
| DonL | guerrero, you mean, the linux versions are harder? | 07:32 |
| GrayRoCkStOnE | I'm attempting to install Doom 3 in Ubuntu right now. LOL | 07:32 |
| ethics | Computer__Guru, grayrockstone id say adobe has a monopoly on most of the graphics stuff now they own macromedia... | 07:32 |

| hondje | manuals suck | 08:01 |

| crimsun | GNULinuxer: we were going to try a hard-coded modeline for 1280x1024 @ 75 Hz | 08:01 |
| chibifs | I think it's because xorg identifies it as the HP-P1100, and Xfree86 identifies it as the Compaq-P1100-- o_o;;.. It's a compaq refurbished with hp parts, but still supports 1920x1440, and monitor autodetection really peeves me. | 08:01 |

| Computer__Guru | there really 400 ppl here?? | 08:46 |
| Dr_Willis | spasmodo, just useing ln like that.. is not a great idea.. however from source it may want the developer files as well.. | 08:47 |

| Computer__Guru | Tiago: longhorn depends far too heavily on xml, and slower pc's are gonna take a year to load it.. xp runs fine on a 266 w/256+ ram.. longhorn will need at LEAST a 1.3GHz regardless of ram to make you not want to kill yourself waiting for it to load | 09:19 |

| tiglionabbit | I haven't played it in a few days though, I think I've had enough of it. My high score was in the 5 digit numbers, got to level 9 and died by accidentally punching a cockatrice in the face | 09:42 |

| AndyFitz | wish it was the sharper | 09:44 |
| hondje | why does everyone hate the gnome foot next to applications? | 09:45 |

| gyaresu | Slatibart, ha! right. | 10:43 |
| Nsaneice | Madpilot: I just used the .sh, hit enter to install, a for all web browser dirs, and n to not install it again | 10:43 |
| sinferno | whats the best way to uninstall games that have been installed with cedega | 10:43 |
| Madpilot | Nsaneice: that's the package off Macromedia's website? | 10:43 |
| Nsaneice | Yup | 10:43 |
| tiglionabbit | dunno sinferno, do they have uninstallers? You could just delete them I bet | 10:43 |
| gyaresu | Slatibart, does the ubuntu box (that's 200KM away) work? | 10:43 |

| tiglionabbit | sinferno: apps -> system tools -> manage 3rd party software | 10:45 |
| Slatibart | gyaresu: i just want to bypass the hours of downloading and spending money for the internet connection... i renmeber that open office needs updating and that is a big packages | 10:45 |
| gyaresu | mgcross, nice one. | 10:45 |
| sinferno | tiglionabbit, no i dont | 10:45 |
| rainingzigzags | where would i get opera at? is it in one of the repositories? | 10:46 |
| Slatibart | gyaresu: a list of dpkg which have been updatedet since then and a way to download them directly | 10:46 |
| gyaresu | Slatibart, you could zip up the package cache of an already installed ubuntu machine. or get the list of packages from someone and wget them... | 10:46 |
| sinferno | tiglionabbit, is that bad? | 10:46 |
| Madpilot | rainingzigzags: not in repos. www.opera.com/downloads then select Ubuntu | 10:46 |

| sinferno | tiglionabbit, i was actually wondering if i delete them from the symbolic link, does it affect the real files | 10:48 |
| NatF-UQI | depends | 10:48 |
| tiglionabbit | sinferno: no, only hard links do | 10:48 |

| guillem | Hi! which is the best way to install a free X-server in a windows machine so one can control an Ubuntu remote machine? | 11:19 |
| pippijn | are there linux kernel headers for the 2.6 kernel? | 11:19 |
| action09 | Garrison hi, are u Mr Garrison from South Park ? :) | 11:19 |
| guillem | pippijn, sure | 11:19 |
| pippijn | for ubuntu that is | 11:19 |
| pippijn | I want to install vmware | 11:20 |
| gyaresu | guillem, vnc | 11:20 |
| guillem | pippijn, just check synaptic | 11:20 |
| monteiro | guillem : vnc | 11:20 |
| Garrison | action09; some days, otherwise i'm just Craz3d | 11:20 |
| guillem | gyaresu, vnc is easy but slow | 11:20 |
| guillem | gyaresu, I'm talking about a local network. | 11:20 |
| pippijn | guillem: I find only 2.4 headers | 11:20 |
| eliUbuntu | adios people, off to sleep | 11:20 |
| gyaresu | guillem, you're running it from a windows box so your 'free' options are small. | 11:20 |
| pippijn | guillem: are they those in /usr/include/linux? | 11:21 |
| guillem | pippijn, apt-get install linux-headers-2.6.10-5 | 11:21 |
| Garrison | guillem; add other repos. you should find 2.6.10 headers | 11:21 |
| pippijn | I will try that | 11:21 |
| tiglionabbit | wow, this is interesting, on an entire 50 gigabyte partition for windows, I only found 593 Megabytes of stuff I want to keep... | 11:21 |
| pippijn | one moment | 11:21 |
| pippijn | yeey | 11:21 |
| pippijn | guillem: thanks | 11:21 |
| tiglionabbit | I hope I'm not missing something... | 11:21 |
| pippijn | it was linux-headers | 11:22 |
| pippijn | not kernel-headers | 11:22 |
| Tomcat_ | tiglionabbit: Was the same with me... I only needed some documents and videos... :P | 11:22 |

| Trace | no, i must to use amixer, no X | 11:26 |
| Seveas | guillem, you can simply surf to the backports archive or enable backports, install freenx and disable backports | 11:26 |
| Garrison | Trace: Alsamixer doesn't use X | 11:27 |
| Trace | oh, sorry, i mean, i want to set it when i boot. | 11:27 |

| Garrison | Seveas; when you set the font/framebuffer, there's a command you can run to have it apply the changes | 11:31 |
| gyaresu | Seveas, do you know of ubotu's 'how to'? | 11:31 |

| ClassTeac | PLEASE HELP: Just installed Ubuntu and now all i get is a crazy screen that's green black and red dithering.... | 12:50 |
| tiglionabbit | o.o | 12:51 |
| tiglionabbit | sounds like X couldn't find a suitible resolution for your monitor, so it spazzed out | 12:51 |
| === ompaul [~ompaul@212.2.165.32] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| tiglionabbit | did you select the right resolutions at that stage of the installation? | 12:51 |
| ClassTeac | it never asked me for resolution :( | 12:52 |
| tiglionabbit | ClassTeac: well | 12:52 |
| tiglionabbit | you have two options | 12:52 |
| ompaul | anyone know if this error is exclusively caused by icmp being switched off http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl/583 | 12:52 |
| tiglionabbit | you can drop to a terminal and "sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf", or "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" | 12:53 |
| ClassTeac | ill try that while I've got you here :) | 12:53 |
| tiglionabbit | I'd actually suggest the second of those if things are working badly | 12:53 |
| tiglionabbit | (the first is to manually edit your configs) | 12:53 |
| tiglionabbit | so, that'll just start up a configurator in some beautiful whiptail dialog boxes, and ask you a bunch of questions. Hopefully, you know the correct answers to these questions | 12:54 |
| nikkia | tiglionabbit: you know, it never asked me for a resolution either, that i remember, just defaulted to the highest it discovered via EDID iirc | 12:54 |
| tiglionabbit | you know how to drop to terminal, right? Control-Alt and an F key below F7 | 12:55 |
| tiglionabbit | F7 to get back | 12:55 |

| ClassTeac | hmmm | 12:55 |
| nikkia | which, assuming your EDID result is correct, *should* be the right behaviour, IMO | 12:55 |
| tiglionabbit | to crazy messed up X | 12:55 |
| ClassTeac | won't let me CTRL ATL F+ANYTHING | 12:55 |
| tiglionabbit | er, like F1, the F keys | 12:55 |
| ClassTeac | :( I'm trying to add the '3' thingy to the kernal at bootup if that makes any sense | 12:55 |
| ClassTeac | But that didn't work either | 12:56 |
| tiglionabbit | 3 thingy? no idea | 12:56 |
| nikkia | ClassTeac: ubuntu only has two (normal) runlevels really single user and 'full blown X' | 12:56 |
| ClassTeac | Kernel blah blah blah blah 3 | 12:56 |
| nikkia | ClassTeac: there is no 'GUI' and 'text' runlevels like many other distros use | 12:56 |
| ClassTeac | ohhh. so I have to type in single | 12:57 |
| keikoz | yes that's quite strange in fact | 12:57 |
| nikkia | ClassTeac: single user should be 0 i think | 12:57 |
| gyaresu | tiglionabbit, remember to remind of the 'cp /etc/thing/stuff.conf /etc/thing/stuff.conf.bak' ;) | 12:57 |
| nikkia | keikoz: its annoying, a text-only runlevel is very useful for problem resolution | 12:57 |
| keikoz | init 2 should be no X | 12:57 |
| keikoz | that's sure | 12:57 |
| keikoz | isnt it the same as debian ? | 12:57 |
| tiglionabbit | gyaresu: I think we're going with the dpkg-reconfigure thing instead | 12:57 |
| nikkia | keikoz: well, i don't care if its 2 or 5, no matter, it'd be a nice option to have, without having to manually rip apart a rc?.d | 12:58 |
| keikoz | yes... | 12:58 |
| tiglionabbit | to quote inittab: | 12:58 |
| tiglionabbit | # Runlevel 0 is halt. | 12:58 |
| tiglionabbit | # Runlevel 1 is single-user. | 12:58 |
| tiglionabbit | # Runlevels 2-5 are multi-user. | 12:58 |
| tiglionabbit | # Runlevel 6 is reboot. | 12:58 |
| keikoz | what about sensors detection on asus p5gdc ? i cant detect them | 12:58 |
| keikoz | i'm on hoary ... | 12:58 |
| nikkia | tiglionabbit: the unix world really needs symbolic runlevels, and it needs them badly :) | 12:59 |
| nikkia | tiglionabbit: having to remember 0=single on one system and 0=halt on others, isn't good | 12:59 |
| ClassTeac | tiglionabbit: I did the sudo dpkg-reconfigure... it's asking me to enter the video cards bus identifier... ahhh what the? | 01:00 |
| tiglionabbit | ClassTeac: I don't know. Does it allow you to do it "automatically" or write something in there by itself? | 01:00 |
| tiglionabbit | generally the defaults are what you want for things you don't know | 01:00 |

| konrad | Hi, woh to add device file in /dev if I use udev? I other words, installing lircd it makes devices files, but after reboot this file is repleced/deleted by udev. Secondly, I want to make symbolic link /dev/radio to /dev/radio0, but udev is removing this :/ | 01:49 |

| Tomcat_ | konrad: I'd suggest a boot script that re-creates the files after each boot, but I don't know if this is the best way. | 01:50 |
| konrad | Tomcat_: I thought about it, but this is very uncomfortable | 01:50 |
| konrad | maybe /dev/.udevdb/ ?? | 01:51 |
| Tomcat_ | I think /dev gets overwritten on each reboot, so it won't help. | 01:51 |
| crazyhorse | i'm using sata_sil but i have no /dev/sda, any help? | 01:52 |
| konrad | and making lirc device is difficult, I have very specific hardware (I can study DEB postinstall script, but...) | 01:52 |

| mirak | gyaresu: I burned a dvd video, the first time it failed since I didn't you there was an option for dvd video. So next time I used k3b to create one, but it failed badly after few seconds | 03:12 |
| mirak | I retried again with k3b and it worked | 03:12 |
| Ubunoob | I'm trying to suspend my laptio using acpi on kernel 2.6.10, by echoing sleep states to the relevent /sys entries. acpi sleep state 4 works ok (suspend to disk) though I did have to manually edit the menu.list and add the pmdisk= parameter to the kernel line. Suspend state 3 however suspends the machine to ram but upon reactivation the backlight on the s3 savage chipset doesn't come back on. Apparently this can be caused by not resetting the video bus | 03:12 |

| bigfoot1 | i see, but i'm still left with the problem: after uninstalling one program, what do we do with the now-unused depencies? What do you guys do? Do you guys take notes of the dependcies each instaled program needs? I think there is a problem here. Many of us advice newbies. Experts say to newbies "You are free to try many programs, since they are all free/safe/etc. They are in the repository. and if you don't like it, you can just remove it." | 03:56 |
| bigfoot1 | But this doesn't take care of the unnecessary dependencies. Over time, our hard drive will be wasting space, holding unnecessary dependencies. What do you guys do about this? | 03:56 |

| Garrison | sh0k; after that; sudo apt-get install linux-headers-2.6.10-5-k7 | 03:57 |
| hybrid_goth | azol: updates in stable are normally security | 03:57 |
| wmealing__ | hackable to fix ? | 03:57 |
| sh0k | ok | 03:58 |
| Garrison | is it going? | 03:58 |

| Garrison | reboot and come back | 03:58 |
| sh0k | ok | 03:58 |
| sh0k | cya | 03:58 |
| hybrid_goth | azol: but in developement updates can be anything in stable it is almost always security (besides backports) | 03:58 |

| hybrid_goth | azol: but backports are prone to cause issues | 04:02 |
| sh0k | No precompiled kernel interface was found to match your kernel; this means | 04:02 |

| tanki | is it true mplayer can rip dvd's? | 04:40 |
| mophat | erp, the sound, it only has OSS | 04:40 |
| VirtuallN2 | so, can anyone help me. staring at that "Starting Ubuntu" is quite annoying. | 04:40 |
| mophat | maybe i need beep | 04:40 |

| h08817 | if i could install linux it would be great | 04:43 |
| sJaM | well unrar is on the system | 04:43 |
| sJaM | it has to use rar -E | 04:43 |
| === bedwards [~bedwards@fw-dcise.ascensionhealth.org] has left #ubuntu ["Leaving"] | ||

| Garrison | langenberg; do you still have the installer? | 05:04 |
| NerdGirl | reka: I'll have to look over what you changed, because I spent a couple hours messing with xorgconfig last night, and the thing registered that I was capable of the different video modes, but wouldn't actually allow me to change my resolution | 05:05 |
| devios | weiers: I did exactly what you are tlaking about and it worked fine. hda = windowsxp, hdb=ubuntu. grub installed to mbr on hda. | 05:05 |
| langenberg | I wanted to do it the 'debian-way', but if that won't work I'll use the one from nvidia.com | 05:05 |

| Garrison | langenberg; do a 'locate nvidia' and copy everything from the old kernel dir, into the new one, and edit the config files it made | 05:08 |
| devios | weiers: yeah... it's likely that you are installing grub to hdb or hdb1 instead of hda (Where windows ntfs partition is hda1) it's also possible that you forgot to make hdb1 bootable (your ubuntu /boot partition) | 05:08 |
| anacron | h08817: youll have to check out what it will say | 05:08 |

| reka | NerdGirl: righto then...good luck with that | 05:09 |
| devios | weiers: you could probably boot up into recovery mode from the cd, chroot into your ubuntu environment, then install grub manually, but I think you should probably just reinstall until you get it right to avoid nuking your winblows installation | 05:09 |

| weiers | devios the only option I get when installing ubutu is to install grub with a reference to Windows and Ubuntu. So the only thing that I could possibly try to change is the partitioning. Do you think it is likely that that will help... then I will do it | 05:11 |
| Skrot | I've got some problems with sound: I've got two soundcards (one built-in, one Creative card using emu10k1). I've defined the emu10k1 card as default in alsa (/etc/asound.conf), and it's the one that's found in alsamixer. But I don't get any sound from it.. where do I start to debug? Playing files with aplay don't give any errors.. | 05:11 |
| reka | NerdGirl: ah. i'd avoid using it anyway. in my experience in adds a lot of extra stuff. best to just tweak the default one ubuntu gives you | 05:11 |
| Skrot | PCM and Master is not muted btw. | 05:12 |
| reka | crimsun: ping | 05:12 |
| devios | weiers: I am not the person to rely on for that decision - I have /dev/hda MBR = grub, /dev/hda1 = ntfs, /dev/hdb1=/boot (bootable), /dev/hdb2=swap, and /dev/hdb3=/ | 05:12 |
| weiers | devios, just a question, I now have one of these new motherboards that uses a very thin red connector to link up to the harddrive (ATA?) on which windows is. But my Ubuntu harddrive is still on one of the thick IDE cables, shared with the DVD-rom. (Jumper set to cable select)... those settings won't have anything effect on the booting and instalilgn of grub. | 05:12 |

| Toby | It says there is no such file or folder ... | 05:13 |
| bedwards | serial ata | 05:13 |
| devios | weiers: that means your windows disk is SATA and it's probably /dev/sda and your ubuntu is probably /dev/hda or /dev/hdb... | 05:13 |

| weiers | devios I will try again and then see what happens. I do not remember seeing a /sda and a /sda1, But I will go and check. If there is a /dev/sda - must I do something to its partitioning to be able to run Grub - or must I just try to point GRUB to it? | 05:20 |

| midg3t | and scsi support too... though i guess that probably comes by default | 05:24 |
| Skrot | Then thats probably it :p | 05:24 |
| devios | weiers: what's probably happening is that ubuntu considers /dev/hda as disk1 and windows and your system's bios considers /dev/sda as disk1, so ubuntu is installing grub to /dev/hda MBR, so your bios isn't finding it. instead, your bios is finding the windows bootloader code on /dev/sda MBR | 05:24 |

| highvoltage | Howitzer: yes, you can. | 08:49 |
| r0d | why would you want too | 08:49 |
| Howitzer | because i want to use the most-light-weight programs now | 08:49 |

| McQuaid | hello, i was reading that for a time, polypaudio was the default for ubuntu but switched back to esd | 11:39 |
| tiglionabbit | ubotu bugzilla is https://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/ | 11:39 |
| ubotu | tiglionabbit: okay | 11:39 |
| McQuaid | i don't normally use any sound daemon, but i'm looking at my options for gaming with teamspeak | 11:39 |
| A[D] minS | tiglionabbit, what a bout installing KDE3.4 ? | 11:40 |
| McQuaid | the only one i could get working with both was arts but the lag is awful | 11:40 |
| A[D] minS | just apt-get install kde ? | 11:40 |
| Belutz | anyone use thunderbird? | 11:40 |
| McQuaid | anyone familar with polypaudio? | 11:40 |
| tiglionabbit | A[D] minS: kubuntu, not kde | 11:40 |
| nightswim | I use thinderbird | 11:40 |
| tiglionabbit | A[D] minS: I mean, kubuntu-desktop | 11:40 |

| Belutz | nightswim: can i share the mbox between the thunderbird in ubuntu and thunderbird in windows xp? i'm using dual boot | 11:41 |
| A[D] minS | thx tiglionabbit what diffrence between kde and kubuntu-desktop ? | 11:41 |
| nightswim | uuhm | 11:41 |
| sh0k | Other distributions | 11:41 |
| sh0k | If the distribution you are using provides a configuration mechanism for audio drivers, use it to select the nvsound driver module for use with the nForce audio device. Otherwise, manually edit the module configuration file. | 11:41 |
| sh0k | If your configuration file already contains an entry for the i810_audio, snd-intel8x0, or nvaudio drivers (open-source audio drivers that supports the nForce audio controller), that entry needs to be commented out with a # or removed: | 11:41 |
| nightswim | perhaps with a symlink :) | 11:41 |
| sh0k | where is the module file? | 11:41 |
| === apokryphos7 [~dw@host-84-9-32-178.bulldogdsl.com] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| anto9us | Belutz: you can configure both to leave your mail on the server | 11:41 |
| Riddell | A[D] minS: kde has all the KDE programs, kubuntu-desktop has a selection for a sensible desktop | 11:41 |
| nightswim | assuming the windows versions uses the same mbox stuff | 11:41 |
| Belutz | ok.. | 11:42 |
| raven3x7 | trapeze tried booting into recovery mode? you could run that script there. there might be an easier way but i cant think of anyting else right now | 11:42 |
| nightswim | Belutz: I'd install them both | 11:42 |
| Belutz | what about creating a shortcut folder on my desktop? | 11:42 |
| nightswim | then mount the windows disk | 11:42 |
| === max__ [~max@ool-18bb4419.dyn.optonline.net] has joined #ubuntu | ||

| tiglionabbit | Belutz: ls -s whereyourelinking linkname | 11:43 |
| cafuego | Belutz: Windows could use the Linux disk if you used say ext2 or ext3 on Linux. | 11:43 |

| Discipulus | mk_, what mirror are you using? | 11:45 |
| tiglionabbit | Belutz: you mean a launcher? | 11:45 |
| tanki | cafuego, how would you mount a linux partion if only windows is running? | 11:45 |
| LinuxJones | khermans, like output of xorg into a video format ? | 11:45 |
| tanki | yeah i'm guessing you're using something because i dont know of any native way in windows to do that | 11:45 |
| cafuego | tanki: With mount.exe for windows, of course :-) | 11:45 |
| Discipulus | ubotu, what is us mirror? | 11:46 |
| ubotu | Discipulus: what are you talking about? | 11:46 |
| Discipulus | !us | 11:46 |
| ubotu | parse error: dunno what the heck you're talking about, Discipulus | 11:46 |
| raven3x7 | trapeze as suggested by cafuego. im not sure what -plow does though. always used this without options myself.. | 11:46 |
| Discipulus | heh | 11:46 |
| Discipulus | damn | 11:46 |
| khermans | LinuxJones, I want to create a demo presentation of things I am doing via my desktop | 11:46 |
| Belutz | tiglionabbit: yup, a launcher that opening folder | 11:46 |
| cafuego | !usrepos | 11:46 |
| ubotu | hmm... usrepos is if you get MD5Sum mismatches when doing apt-get installs don't use the us mirror. Change us.archive.ubuntu.com to archive.ubuntu.com in /etc/apt/sources.list | 11:46 |
| Discipulus | there ya go mk_ | 11:46 |
| Zerboxx | anto9us: The .inf file used for the windows box is the one I've already tried with ndiswrapper | 11:46 |
| tiglionabbit | Belutz: well you could make the command "nautilus /the/folder", or you could just do an ln in terminal | 11:46 |
| mk_ | tiglionabbit: http://us.archive.ubuntu.com | 11:46 |
| tiglionabbit | mk_: what? | 11:47 |
| Belutz | tiglionabbit: ok... trying it | 11:47 |
| Discipulus | mk_, change it to http://archive.ubuntu.com | 11:47 |
| anto9us | Zerboxx: were the rest of the files that the .inf file uses available to it? | 11:47 |
| LinuxJones | khermans, let me have a look there was a good one that enables you to hilight a section of the screen (like an application window) and allow you to record it in divx format...let me see | 11:47 |
| Zerboxx | anto9us: Ah, missed that part, let me try that...my mistake | 11:47 |
| cafuego | tanki: http://sourceforge.net/projects/ext2fsd/ | 11:47 |
| tanki | thanks | 11:47 |
| Belutz | tiglionabbit: i got this error: ln: `/media/datashare/': hard link not allowed for directory | 11:48 |
| khermans | LinuxJones, was it xvidcap? That was has segfaulted on me everytime now | 11:48 |
| mk_ | So us.archive.ubuntu.com is broken? Or is there something I'm missing? | 11:48 |
| LinuxJones | khermans, yeah that's it | 11:48 |
| khermans | LinuxJones, do you know how to use it? | 11:48 |
| khermans | LinuxJones, it is not in the repos | 11:48 |
| Belutz | tiglionabbit: i forgot to use -s :p | 11:48 |

| sh0k | does ubutnu have modules.conf or modprobe.conf? | 11:49 |
| khermans | LinuxJones, i have all the codecs...lol | 11:49 |
| khermans | LinuxJones, have you used it frequently? | 11:49 |
| cafuego | sh0k: modprobe.conf for 2.6 kernels, but you add configuration options in /etc/modprobe.d/* | 11:49 |
| Zerboxx | anto9us: You may have just saved me a lot of frustration... | 11:49 |
