| gangjavitis | yeah that's what you're looking for... but you have to do it from a prompt | 01:14 |
| gangjavitis | not a shell | 01:14 |
| nalioth | vladuz: you need to dmz your home machine, and go to the routers admin screen (192.168.1.1 or whatever it is) and get the external IP | 01:15 |
| emX | vladuz: consider using a package like ddclient (with dyndns) | 01:15 |

| gangjavitis | rg58 what problems are you having? | 01:21 |
| nalioth | vladuz: no "dmz" under game settings, perhaps? | 01:21 |
| A[D] minS | Madpilot, u r pilot ? | 01:21 |
| pax | sinferno: here's a tip when you roll your own. make a list with: find / | grep -v -e ^/dev/ -e ^/tmp/ -e^ /pro/ > preinstall-programname.list. Then install your program and run the same command with postinstall-programname. At the end run: diff prinstall-programname.list preinstall-programname.list > installed-programname.list <--now you have a list of file to delete and where they are to uninstall | 01:21 |

| khermans | quazion_, try k3b for that and burning | 01:43 |
| nalioth | nickrud: not saying it was, just advising to avoid recommending the guide in general | 01:43 |
| nickrud | and rp-pppoe instead of pppconfig | 01:43 |
| queuetue | Gnobody, It works for audio, or for data cds? | 01:43 |
| nalioth | pax: the team IS moving (see the wiki to see what has changed) | 01:43 |
| Gnobody | Im not sure about audio disks | 01:43 |
| nickrud | nalioth, yeah, I backed off on that as quickly as I could | 01:44 |
| Gnobody | but it works great for data cds/dvds | 01:44 |
| khermans | queuetue, k3b works for all CD/DVD types | 01:44 |

| knowledge_ | tritium, yo're the man | 02:02 |
| jasoncohen | bojangles, sarge's 2.6.8 gives me kernel page faults and 2.6.11 doesn't compile ivtv correctly for me. i think i was able to do it using hoary's 2.6.10 kernel | 02:02 |
| evo|ution1 | poutine, i have a cd burner but isnt dere a way | 02:02 |
| tritium | knowledge_, glad it helped :) | 02:03 |
| evo|ution1 | if linu can be installed from ftp based services than why not via iso file on a har disk | 02:03 |
| Burgundavia | jasoncohen, sarge is newer than hoary | 02:03 |
| bojangles | jasoncohen, ok..there must be a few header changes...so you just have to experiment. | 02:03 |
| tritium | jasoncohen, 2.6.11 is unsupported, and shouldn't be used (for example, no l-r-m) | 02:03 |
| Burgundavia | jasoncohen, sarge --> breezy is possible | 02:03 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | hmm opera is quick and has some nice features but i don't like the interface >.< | 02:03 |
| poutine | evo|ution1: Well, you could make a partition, copy it to that partition, and set it as bootable, but the problem would be, that partition would have to remain persistant through installation, and some scripts may need edited since it thinks it's booting off a cd, that's why I said, if you're asking, the answer is probably no | 02:03 |
| evo|ution1 | shucks | 02:04 |
| jasoncohen | Burgundavia, sarge was frozen for a while so most packages are behind the version in hoary but i guess i should wait until breezy is released to try it | 02:04 |
| evo|ution1 | i got ur point | 02:04 |
| poutine | if you have a burner what's the problem? | 02:04 |
| |rockinnerd| | ChurcH_of_FoamY, you can change the interface if u use skins, and custom layouts | 02:04 |

| daniels | micahf: 4GB/sec is a theoretical limit of 'how much could you send if there were no constraints at all' | 02:47 |
| poutine | or how much that loan was | 02:47 |
| bob2 | Dobs: so, it's not pci, unless it's not physically plugged in, or it's pysically broken | 02:47 |
| micahf | daniels, I know, my point is just that the bus doesn't inhibit the card's access to the memory | 02:47 |
| daniels | micahf: if you have to wait for a round-trip, or -- and this will happen -- endure latency for your request, you're not going to even get close | 02:47 |
| jasoncohen | Burgundavia, is the startup time on breezy better than hoary? i find that starting the hotplug system in hoary takes excessively long. | 02:47 |

| daniels | micahf: sure it does | 02:48 |
| Thewarmachine | nickrud, i get speeds of no greater than 2x | 02:48 |
| daniels | micahf: you have to stall other ops on the bus while you tie it up for memory access | 02:48 |
| bojangles | jasoncohen, that is being worked on at the hardware level...there are now some iRAM boards and some solid state hard drives with fiber optics coupling that will help the i/o latency stuff. | 02:48 |
| bob2 | Thewarmachine: as nickrud and I have said, they all use cdparanoia, which is a good thing; it does a very very good job | 02:48 |
| Dobs | I read somewhere on the net about Toshiba A60 -302 difficulties with pci. | 02:48 |
| bob2 | Thewarmachine: it's probably just that your cd rive is crap (most are) | 02:48 |
| daniels | micahf: not to mention that you're now going to have contention between your gpu and cpu for memory accesses, so suddenly render ops become bound to your cpu again. ironically. | 02:48 |
| Thewarmachine | why do i get such sluggish speeds | 02:48 |
| Dobs | Anyway, that's good. It saves me trying to configure what is not there. | 02:48 |
| Dobs | Thanks bob2 | 02:48 |
| bob2 | Thewarmachine: you could try cdda2wav if you care more about speed than quality | 02:49 |
| nickrud | Thewarmachine, maybe try sudo hdparm -d1 /dev/<cdrom> , I've heard that that can speed things up | 02:49 |
| bojangles | jasoncohen, so you won't have to worry...just get or design the right hardware. | 02:49 |

| teferi | IcemanV9: i highly recommend doing so. it's not at all hard to pick up | 04:25 |
| teferi | the important thing is to stop worrying about formatting your document. LaTeX is better at formatting than you are | 04:25 |
| teferi | instead, just tell it the semantic structure of your document and it'll make it pretty for you | 04:25 |
| robotgeek | first rule of latex: latex is always right | 04:25 |
| teferi | except when it's wrong. but that's pretty rare | 04:25 |

| FlyingSquirrel32 | bob2: ubuntu has no firewall? | 04:47 |
| aru | colmore: probably not, I just assumed it had something to do with my pcmcia nic on the laptop, it could do the same on my desktop but I haven't rebooted in a few weeks so I don't remember | 04:47 |
| tritium | bojangles, it would be nice if editing pdf images (such as in scribus) was easier, and produced better results | 04:47 |
| colmore | ok, i'm looking at the interfaces file | 04:47 |
| bob2 | FlyingSquirrel32: it does, but by default it does nothing | 04:47 |
| bojangles | tritium, well i don't use scribus or pdf because i am not sure of their legalities.....someone said they are proprietary and with patents. | 04:47 |
| FlyingSquirrel32 | where? | 04:48 |
| robotgeek | colmore: just comment out that ones you don't want to bring up. | 04:48 |
| colmore | and i can still bring them up manually after boot? | 04:48 |
| tritium | bojangles, okay, same for postscript images, though | 04:48 |
| bob2 | FlyingSquirrel32: where what? firewalling is a kernel function, you can use "sudo iptables -L -v -n" to see the current (filter) rules. | 04:48 |

| teferi | levander: md5sum <device file>, compare to md5sum <iso file> | 05:22 |
| nickrud | levander, I did that, and got the same md5sum that was posted on the ubuntu site, so I was quite comfortable | 05:22 |
| teferi | hosler: if you're talking about DLLs staying in memory, shared libraries that aren't being used get paged out | 05:22 |
| teferi | so they're not actually taking up memory | 05:22 |

| levander | TerminX: nickrud: but will running md5sum attempt to read the entire disc? And give me an error if it can't read something? That's the common problem I have with old CD's. Programs stop being able to read them. | 05:24 |
| eli | ubotu tell me about repositories | 05:24 |
| jmspeex | teferi: regarding gcc 4.0 | 05:24 |

| eli | ubotu tell me about gdesklets | 05:25 |
| teferi | serves me right for assuming | 05:26 |
| levander | nickrud: right, but seee, i think that's what I want to check. Just since I've burned the CD, it hasn't got any scratches on it, preventing me from being able to read it. So, *if* md5sum attempts to read the whole disc, I would think it would give me an error saying "unable to read" if there's a scratch on the disc. | 05:26 |
| nickrud | levander, try it and see what happens | 05:26 |
| levander | nickrud: but, does it sound to you like I'm checking what I think I'm checking? about to try now | 05:27 |
| === homer2 [~ghozer@user-12hc4oe.cable.mindspring.com] has left #ubuntu ["Leaving"] | ||
| nickrud | levander, yes, the check seems ok, but I would expect you to have some kind of hardware error if the disk is scratched | 05:27 |
| bojangles | and plus the kde people are hacking libgtkembedmoz to produce libqtembedmoz | 05:28 |
| levander | nickrud: exactly, i'm checking to see if I get that hardware error | 05:28 |
| levander | nickrud: only thing I don't know is if md5sum tries to read the entire disc or not | 05:28 |
| teferi | it will | 05:28 |
| teferi | it has to read every byte to compute the md5sum | 05:29 |
| levander | yeah, it's kind of acting like it is | 05:29 |
| teferi | one byte's difference will produce a radically different hash | 05:29 |
| === jorgp2 is now known as jorgp | ||
| levander | teferi: but I don't care about the hash | 05:29 |
| teferi | levander: the md5sum | 05:29 |

| nickrud | levander, yes you do, it's the md5sum | 05:29 |
| levander | no guys, i really don't think i do | 05:29 |
| teferi | ohh, i see, this isn't burned from an image? | 05:29 |

| levander | nickrud: so, do you think this test will work? | 05:31 |
| nickrud | levander, if you cannot read it, then it's borked. Get it from your friend | 05:31 |
| Octane | i have a backports server in my sources.list yet when I try to get a pkg that I know is backported, it tries to get the old version | 05:31 |
| levander | nickrud: so you think md5sum is trying to read the whole disc then? | 05:31 |

| levander | isn't there some eject button on the ubuntu desktop somewhere? | 05:33 |
| SDFH_Linux | ok | 05:33 |
| teferi | all things are transient. bugs doubly so. | 05:33 |
| hoof | are RPMs supported in ubuntu? Im new to ubuntu, i use fedora | 05:34 |
| teferi | bojangles: tell that to the copy of VisiCalc for DOS I have that still runs on windows XP... | 05:34 |
| SDFH_Linux | maybe i am worried about breaking my debian system | 05:34 |

| levander | hoof: try to avoid using rpms,but yes, you can install rpm on ubuntu | 05:34 |
| teferi | bojangles: also tell that to my copy of File Manager from Windows 3.1 | 05:34 |
| teferi | You get the idea. | 05:34 |
| hoof | Octane: yes, alien...but I had to do that in the command prompt right? How about a package manager that works in the GUI | 05:35 |
| calc | teferi: also note that by keeping compat to the extent that ms can't fix their security problems :) | 05:35 |
| Octane | hoof: not that i know of, sorry | 05:35 |
| teferi | hoof: the debian/ubuntu packaging system is called "dpkg" | 05:35 |
| teferi | we use .debs rather than .rpms | 05:35 |
| hoof | levander: yes, but most of my linux softwares are in rpm...i wanted to install maya for linux in ubuntu but they're in rpms | 05:35 |
| bojangles | teferi, you mean XP is binary compatible with the real old stuff. | 05:35 |
| calc | but as far as saying microsoft doesn't keep compat with their own stuff that is untrue they keep it to a fault | 05:35 |
| teferi | bojangles: yep | 05:36 |
| nickrud | hoof, look on packages.ubuntu.com for what you want before using any rpms, the odds are good | 05:36 |
| bojangles | teferi, well that seems to conflict with a lot of gamers reports | 05:36 |
| teferi | bojangles: therefore, there hasn't been significant ABI breakage | 05:36 |
| calc | the only things that lose out for microsoft stuff tends to be things that do low level driver magic | 05:36 |

| levander | _ted: i think that's the thing they're doing for the education markets, look in the breezy wiki for explanation | 05:55 |
| emX | Freedomzen: you'd be better off installing Hoary | 05:56 |
| === nickrud reads debian legal now and then | ||
| teferi | bojangles: nfs is not patent-encumbered. don't worry | 05:56 |
| teferi | it's a shame that it's awful. | 05:56 |
| teferi | FlyingSquirrel32: depends on how big the network is | 05:56 |

| teferi | in a big environment, everyone loves to use (Open)AFS because it's fast, scalable, etc | 05:56 |
| FlyingSquirrel32 | simple. | 05:56 |
| teferi | bojangles: just relax, man | 05:56 |
| _ted | I tried, but the Ubuntulite site (linked from distrowatch) was down | 05:56 |
| calc | whee i managed to fix breezy with enough fscking holds to do an upgrade | 05:56 |

| teferi | it is simple to use once you set it up, confound it | 05:56 |
| Freedomzen | emX, other than the fact im a "has to have the new stuff guy" no | 05:56 |
| teferi | god forbid | 05:56 |
| teferi | no one uses NIS anymore | 05:56 |
| gnuyen | does anyone have a motorola razr phone and sync contacts w/ evolution successfully? | 05:57 |
| calc | Freedomzen: if you use a package manager and have a lot of patience you might be able to get it to work now | 05:57 |
| calc | Freedomzen: iow not apt-get | 05:57 |
| teferi | well, okay, that's not true, but no one's deploying new installations of it | 05:57 |
| FlyingSquirrel32 | teferi: what then? | 05:57 |
| teferi | FlyingSquirrel32: for centralized auth, today, ldap's the thing | 05:57 |
| levander | teferi: what they use instead of nis? | 05:57 |
| calc | we rolled out windows authentication for linux boxes at work :0 | 05:57 |
| calc | thats some evil shit ;) | 05:57 |
| teferi | levander: ldap | 05:57 |
| teferi | calc: been there, done that, wrote the book | 05:58 |

| ethics | so for some bizarre reason i have downloaded ubuntu i38 install cd around the 585 MB area....is there a windows way to md5chk them? | 05:58 |
| nickrud | teferi, lol | 05:59 |
| teferi | That's completely between them and the babies. | 05:59 |
| bojangles | teferi, but anyway my point is that you cannot go by what distros try to include because they don't know all the facts and some of the legal issues are still unsettled....so you have to err on the safe side. | 05:59 |
| _ted | levander: thank you | 05:59 |

| emX | robotgeek: elinks is my friend. | 06:00 |

| bojangles | teferi, ok...just making sure it was not that proprietary Novell File System...because NFS can stand for different things | 06:00 |
| chaps0063 | I was wondering if there are any gui file synchronization utilities to sync between a local folder and a windows share. | 06:00 |
| teferi | if people put half the energy they do into having panic attacks over IP law into hacking, linux would be awesome | 06:00 |
| teferi | bojangles: You're thinking of NetWare | 06:00 |
| robotgeek | emX: are u talking abt the browser?? | 06:00 |
| teferi | bojangles: There are several open-source implementations of NCP. | 06:00 |
| emX | robotgeek: yeah; quick find, copy, etc. makes helping easy. | 06:00 |
| teferi | All are completely legal. | 06:00 |

| robotgeek | emX: nice, i use simpy for all that...different systems, access to bookmarks is ensured | 06:01 |
| _ted | levander: thats is not the one I was referring to... will post link as soon as I get it back | 06:01 |
| bojangles | teferi, we don't touch open source | 06:01 |
| teferi | bojangles: well, seeing as novell is abandoning netware anyway, that's rather unlikely | 06:01 |
| teferi | but you know what? be that way. it's late and i'm too tired to care | 06:01 |

| The_Vox | Agrajag: actually, RMS sells it for 150...200 for gcc, IIRC | 07:10 |
| oga | big house... no wifi for a while yet | 07:10 |
| Agrajag | wow really? | 07:10 |
| bojangles | it is the only license that truly frees the code | 07:10 |
| robotgeek | though, what prevents ppl from selling redhat with the sources for about say 50$? | 07:10 |
| Agrajag | Does he sign the media or anything | 07:10 |
| The_Vox | Agrajag: sure, you can buy it at the fsf.org site | 07:10 |

| Razor-X | "You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee." | 07:10 |
| Razor-X | it pays to read ;) | 07:10 |
| nickrud | ColonelKernel, try starting from linux-source-2.6.10 | 07:10 |
| bojangles | robotgeek, redhat is not gpl...they are opensource plus they include some proprietary stuff....so you cannot redistribute it | 07:10 |
| The_Vox | robotgeek: the copyright/trademark on the name...that's what CentOS is all about | 07:11 |
| ColonelKernel | nickrud, im hoping thats the patched ubuntu kernel code | 07:11 |

| Razor-X | the cost for CD transferring/warranty can be $50 | 07:11 |
| bojangles | robotgeek, they can sue your but off if you try to redistribute thier CDs....they are opensource at best not gpl | 07:11 |
| robotgeek | if it ain't free, it ain't linux! | 07:11 |
| Razor-X | it's up to the distributor for that | 07:11 |
| Orborde | The_Vox: Okay, I'm at smb.conf and staring cluelessly. | 07:11 |

| Computer__Guru | xchat is kinda nice, eh | 07:11 |
| Razor-X | robotgeek: Linux is a kernel ;) | 07:11 |
| ColonelKernel | robotgeek, if you want to use redhat just use centos | 07:11 |
| nickrud | ColonelKernel, apt-cache search linux-source in a terminal will get you going | 07:12 |

| EightBit | okay | 07:26 |
| tritium | thanks, nickrud | 07:26 |
| Razor-X | that's why I switched to a trackball, mice hurt my hands a plenty | 07:26 |

| Harold | FlannelKing, Razor-X: So if I went ahead and learned C, would it be a good foundation for what I'll need to learn with C++? | 07:26 |
| Razor-X | and now, if I point-and-click too much, my hand cramps, too much keyboard/CLI usage | 07:26 |
| FlannelKing | Harold, it will be a detrement to you learning C++ | 07:26 |
| Gatton | The_Vox, good to know. I have been wanting to switch over but am not looking forward to the transition period :) | 07:27 |
| The_Vox | Razor-X: that's the one change I've never been able to make...trackballs just drive me crazy | 07:27 |
| Razor-X | FlannelKing: then clearly explain why QWERTY the keys themselves are an advantage? | 07:27 |
| Orborde | Clearly. | 07:27 |
| robotgeek | I try to avoid the mouse. i try to stick to one, either the keyboard/mouse | 07:27 |
| nickrud | I cannot believe that someone had that same problem :) | 07:27 |
| Orborde | The_Vox: Okay. Well, I have most of what I want. For some reason, though, I can't write to the share folder. | 07:27 |
| === robotgeek wants to try ratposion | ||
| FlannelKing | Harold, you're better off learning c++, which will teach you basically everything you need for C programming | 07:27 |
| hyphenated | Harold: C and C++ are about as similar as Java and Javascript | 07:27 |
| Harold | FlannelKing: Okay, thank you for your advice. | 07:27 |
| Razor-X | hyphenated: that's a bad example | 07:27 |
| hyphenated | Harold: which is to say.. not much | 07:27 |
| Razor-X | Harold: that's his decision | 07:27 |
| FlannelKing | hyphenated, thats completely wrong | 07:27 |
| Razor-X | I suggest C++, C# isn't bad, the former I prefer | 07:27 |

| The_Vox | Gatton: one recommendation: DO NOT SWITCH THE KEY CAPS OF YOUR KEYBOARD until you've learned dvorak...print the kboard layout and tape it somewhere you can see it with your head up...otherwise, you'll get in the habit of looking at the kboard while typing and that'll slow you dow | 07:27 |
| konki | how come ubuntu can't seem to get the numbers right?? | 07:28 |
| EightBit | how is dvorak better? | 07:28 |
| The_Vox | Orborde: that's a permissions problem, needs to be fixed on the windows side | 07:28 |
| Razor-X | The_Vox: I never had the luxury of either, a la my dad | 07:28 |
| The_Vox | EightBit: better distribution of the keys | 07:28 |
| tritium | konki, meaning? | 07:28 |
| EightBit | ahh | 07:28 |
| EightBit | i tried it the other day | 07:28 |
| EightBit | very confusing the first time | 07:28 |
| Orborde | The_Vox: Except that I set it to "full permissions" pending a password. | 07:28 |
| hyphenated | FlannelKing: there's a similar name, and some similar syntax, but that's about it | 07:28 |
| FlannelKing | Razor-X, I never said they were an advantage, but theyre both about the same, there is no speed increase for one or the other, especially if youre coding | 07:28 |
| Razor-X | EightBit: it's better adapted to the English alphabet | 07:28 |
| EightBit | ah | 07:28 |
| Harold | Razor-X, FlannelKing, hyphenated : I guess I'll have to get another book, then. I *do* have a Java book now, though. | 07:29 |

| Razor-X | I myself increased speed with it | 07:29 |
| robotgeek | python is so nice! | 07:29 |
| FlannelKing | Razor-X, Thats marketing, pure marketing | 07:30 |
| Razor-X | FlannelKing: and the aliens are trying to take over the media | 07:30 |
| The_Vox | konki: not me :) That's why I install firefox with the installer instead of using a package | 07:30 |
| axis | nickrud: .. Well it's grabbing alot more now.. I hope this fixes .. thanks for the tip,. HiP! | 07:30 |
| nickrud | ColonelKernel, the whole device stack: udev, hal, etc depends on hotplug, which is the current module loader. | 07:30 |
| tritium | konki, oh, that | 07:30 |
| bojangles | Agrajag, but anyway..yes it is unfortanate if you actually have to pay for a gpl CD.....but if you get one....you are free to make millions of copies and give them to all your friends. | 07:30 |
| ColonelKernel | nickrud, how do I keep so many modules from loading then? | 07:30 |
| FlannelKing | Razor-X, fine, let me dig up references, if you insist on being fickle | 07:30 |
| robotgeek | Razor-X: java sucks...(on a ppc) | 07:30 |
| bojangles | Agrajag, but make sure you don't confuse gpl with opensource | 07:30 |

| Razor-X | FlannelKing: and I probably have counterreferences | 07:31 |
| Agrajag | what are you talking about | 07:31 |
| Agrajag | gpl is an open-source license | 07:31 |
| konki | The_Vox, now i try to get extensions and it firefox always take me to the stupid upgrade room... | 07:31 |
| The_Vox | FlannelKing: I went from 70WPM to 90WPM when I switched...it *may* be better typing habits (I did force myself to use a better posture while learning and so on and so forth) but I *did* see increase. | 07:31 |
| ColonelKernel | axis, theres things loading that arent in that | 07:31 |
| The_Vox | konki: poor you | 07:31 |
| Razor-X | bojangles: GPL makes something Open-Source | 07:31 |
| bojangles | Agrajag, again...that is open source way of hiding the benefits of gpl....and diminishing their importance | 07:31 |
| Orborde | The_Vox: Sadly, the Windows machine is the one I'm on now. | 07:31 |
| konki | people in mepis said their pkg has 1.0.5 why not us... i taught we are the best?? | 07:31 |
| nickrud | ColonelKernel, look over the modules you have loaded, then use /etc/hotplug/blacklist to drop the ones you don't want. Hotplug is pretty smart on my machine | 07:31 |
| axis | ColonelKernel, /etc/init.d/bootmisc.sh | 07:31 |
| bojangles | Agrajag, don't confuse the issue...either gpl or not | 07:31 |
| Razor-X | The_Vox: I could do 90 on QWERTY, now I can do a nice, thrumming, 110, with a max of 120 | 07:31 |

| Razor-X | don't confuse BASH with SH, because SH existed before BASH? ;) | 07:33 |
| nickrud | axis, I do not want to go into why I understood your problem :) | 07:33 |
| Agrajag | Will your next simile involve an emu, 5 ducks, and an umbrella? | 07:33 |
| Razor-X | The_Vox: probably because i'm younger and my limbs are more limber | 07:33 |
| tritium | konki, 1.0.5 is buggy, and 1.0.6 will be released soon, and then those fixes will go in too | 07:33 |
| robotgeek | tritium: why did they not put in the vendor.sub to 1.0.4? | 07:33 |
| bojangles | Razor-X, well suppose you are a large corporation and you want to be able to distribute thousands of CDs for everone of your people for free | 07:33 |

| ubotu | Firefox on warty is version 1.0.4 backported. To install themes from addons.mozilla.org, type "about:config" into your address bar and change general.useragent.vendorSub from "1.0.2" to "1.0.4" | 07:33 |
| The_Vox | Orborde: uhm...I have no other clues about how to go about your problem. | 07:33 |

| Razor-X | bojangles: so? | 07:33 |
| The_Vox | Razor-X: lol! probably :) | 07:33 |
| tritium | robotgeek, not sure | 07:33 |
| Razor-X | you don't have to make it free, you can charge as well | 07:33 |
| bojangles | Razor-X, and maybe even others....the gpl...not opensource gives you this right. | 07:33 |
| axis | nickrud: lol.. i'm curious now.. evil support staff? hehe .. wacky.. anyways it's installing now.. .. :D | 07:33 |
| tritium | konki, see that ubotu response about firefox above | 07:34 |
| Razor-X | bojangles: Open Source is a property, GPL is a license | 07:34 |
| Razor-X | GPL grants an intellectual property the property of Open Source | 07:34 |
| bojangles | Razor-X, Open Source is a mixture of licenses....not a property | 07:34 |
| konki | i bet when 1.0.6 is released we will have a 1.0.5 pkg... is there some kind of disagreement with ubuntu and firefox... i love firefox i think its the best browser | 07:34 |

| Razor-X | Java is a language whose original goal was total portability... that failed miserably | 07:45 |
| Seveas | ubotu, so true :) | 07:45 |
| ubotu | No idea, Seveas | 07:45 |
| Harold | Razor-X: I've been hearing this "Object Oriented" phrase for years, never really understanding its meaning. | 07:45 |
| Razor-X | Harold: ahhh! | 07:45 |
| nickrud | Seveas, my experience with that died a while ago, I'm just trying to kill the traffic | 07:45 |
| Gatton | Esperanto! | 07:45 |
| Quest-Master | Harold: One word-- Python. | 07:45 |
| Razor-X | well, in the programming world, you can group things in different ways | 07:45 |
| axis | Jonas: You'll have two options when you come to that | 07:45 |
| Agrajag | Lojban!!! | 07:45 |
| FlannelKing | Harold, you'll understand when you learn an OO language | 07:45 |
| axis | Jonas, : Format and use ENTIRE partition | 07:45 |
| Razor-X | Object Orientation is a different concept-model | 07:45 |
| tritium | Harold, it really does depend on your needs. | 07:45 |
| Quest-Master | Urdu/Hindi > German AND Esperanto | 07:45 |
| shadowjack | if i download a source package using "apt-get source $package" where does it download the source to? | 07:45 |
| axis | Jonas, : or "select individual partitions" | 07:45 |
| Quest-Master | :) | 07:45 |
| Razor-X | by using specific constructs called Objects, and properties of the Objects themselves, you can organize things | 07:45 |

| Harold | Razor-X: I take it these "objects" are pre-constructed modules, so to speak? | 07:46 |
| tritium | konki, it's a known issue | 07:46 |
| cafuego | Seveas: When it's implemneted properly, sure | 07:46 |
| Agrajag | shadowjack: probably somewhere under /var/cache/apt | 07:46 |

| Seveas | Harold, you can construct them yourself :) | 07:46 |
| Seveas | oompa: Download and run http://www.ubuntulinux.nl/files/winmac_fstab to make your windows and mac partions mount automatically | 07:46 |
| dataw0lf- | good evenin' gents. | 07:46 |
| Jonas | thanks again and i cant wait to get rid of window : | 07:47 |
| Seveas | cafuego, stop swearing please :) | 07:47 |
| Razor-X | you can construct your own objects with its own variables, functions, and such | 07:47 |
| shadowjack | tritium, what current directory? | 07:47 |
| axis | Jonas: me either.. lol.. i'm slowly implementing linux into my families world now thanks to kubuntu | 07:47 |
| Toasta | how do i reconfigure my video to use the original driver? | 07:47 |
| Razor-X | languages come with predefined functions -- but the power of OO is personal creation of objects | 07:47 |
| Seveas | but yeah, the only really nice implementation of OO is python imho | 07:47 |
| oompa | Seveas: How? | 07:47 |
| tritium | shadowjack, . | 07:47 |
| Seveas | oompa, download it and read it, there are instructions inside the file | 07:47 |
| tritium | shadowjack, whichever directory you're currently in | 07:48 |
| Harold | Python; that's a scripting language, correct? | 07:48 |
| shadowjack | tritium, i see | 07:48 |
| cafuego | Seveas: I like the Java one | 07:48 |
| FlannelKing | yes Harold | 07:48 |
| tritium | Harold, yes. | 07:48 |
| axis | Jonas: there's software called "vmware" that's not too dificult to setup, if you need windows, you can run it inside of that.. I think there are a couple other free alternatives too | 07:48 |
| Seveas | Harold, python is more than that | 07:48 |
| dataw0lf- | Harold: all purpose language. | 07:48 |
| Seveas | cafuego, that's not too bad either. I just hate java :) | 07:48 |
| dataw0lf- | Python is influenced heavily by both OOP and functional languages. | 07:48 |
| Seveas | or actually, sun | 07:48 |
| cafuego | Seveas: <heh> | 07:48 |
| Harold | Is it wise to first learn C/C++ before turning to Python? | 07:48 |
| vladuz | The_Vox: you know how to chang the keyboard mapping for dvorak in ubuntu? | 07:48 |
| dataw0lf- | Harold: Yes. | 07:48 |
| jasoncohen | oompa, sure, it's easy | 07:48 |
| Razor-X | Harold: Python is a nice scripting language that can do many things | 07:48 |
| FlannelKing | dataw0lf, its still a scripting language, | 07:48 |
| cafuego | Seveas: That's a different issue, though ;-) | 07:48 |
| Seveas | Harold, that's not neccessary | 07:48 |
| Dr_Willis | I tend to do.. "Oops" prgraming.... :P | 07:48 |
| jasoncohen | oompa, you just need to know the partition. use sudo fdisk -l to find out | 07:49 |
| Razor-X | Harold: you almost never have to learn prerequisites in programming | 07:49 |
| Dr_Willis | 'did my program really do that?' :P | 07:49 |
| dataw0lf- | FlannelKing: No, you're confusing 'scripting' language with 'interpreted' language. | 07:49 |
| Razor-X | just sit down with a good tutorial, and there you are | 07:49 |
| tritium | Harold, again, it depends on your needs. For some, it makes sense to learn assembly, then C. | 07:49 |
| Seveas | Dr_Willis, lol :) | 07:49 |
| shadowjack | tritium, is there a place it should be? i mean, it looks like it downloaded in my home directory | 07:49 |
| Gatton | Have been thinking of playing around with Python as my first language. At least to learn some concepts | 07:49 |
| dataw0lf- | 'scripting' language is a catchall for people who don't usually know what they mean. | 07:49 |
| Jonas | axis, kewl i think i will get going and install right away ! have a good night ! | 07:49 |
| bojangles | Razor-X, again...listen to me carefully...opensource is a mixture of licenses...such as Mozilla License just for one....the source is open but not free | 07:49 |
| === rinke [~rinke@cc333669-a.frane1.fr.home.nl] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| shadowjack | tritium, and i'm assuming it shouldn't be there | 07:49 |
| tritium | shadowjack, if that's the directory where you called apt-get source, that's where it should have gone | 07:49 |
| Harold | dataw0lf-: This is true, since I know very little about all this. | 07:49 |
| Razor-X | bojangles: the property Open Source is that, the source of the program is distributed | 07:49 |
| jasoncohen | oompa, then you're going to add an entry in /etc/fstab like this "/dev/hda1 /mnt/windows ntfs users,umask=000 0 0" | 07:49 |
| Razor-X | different licenses implement these in different ways | 07:49 |
| bojangles | Razor-X, now the gpl is the only license that protects and frees the code from the human beings. | 07:50 |
| Razor-X | bojangles: the AFPL isn't too bad at that either | 07:50 |
| rinke | Are here some Dutch people? | 07:50 |
| jasoncohen | oompa, replace /dev/hda1 with the correct partition and you'll need to do mkdir sudo /mnt/windows to create the dir | 07:50 |
| Razor-X | nor is the LGPL | 07:50 |
| Seveas | rinke, jazeker | 07:50 |
| jasoncohen | *sudo mkdir /mnt/windows | 07:50 |
| rinke | :D | 07:50 |
| Seveas | rinke, en in #ubuntu-nl nog meer | 07:50 |
| dataw0lf- | Harold: the string of Python is it's elegance, non-trickery, and inclusion of cool features from languages like Lisp, Smalltalk, and Haskell. | 07:50 |
| FlannelKing | dataw0lf, I agree it is an interpreted language, but it was originally designed (and still is) as a scripting language | 07:50 |
| rinke | Oke bedankt | 07:50 |
| === EightBit [Uzi@pool-71-96-97-95.dfw.dsl-w.verizon.net] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| Razor-X | Harold: IMO, the only real choices you have are C++, C, and Python | 07:50 |
| Seveas | FlannelKing, it is not a pure interpreted language | 07:51 |
| Razor-X | but there are niches here-and-there | 07:51 |
| EightBit | okay, that didn't work either | 07:51 |
| EightBit | it just ignores the CD | 07:51 |
| Seveas | and definitely not just scripting | 07:51 |
| tritium | Razor-X, depends on the person's needs | 07:51 |
| FlannelKing | EightBit, you're not configuring your boot order in your bios correctly then | 07:51 |
| Seveas | Razor-X, C# is growing fast | 07:51 |
| EightBit | do I need to make a partition? | 07:51 |
| dataw0lf- | FlannelKing: 'scripting language' is a confusing and rather vague term. | 07:51 |
| EightBit | i did configure it right | 07:51 |
| FlannelKing | EightBit, No, you just need to get it to boot of the CD | 07:51 |
| nickrud | well, this is better than arguing open source, I guess | 07:51 |
| dataw0lf- | FlannelKing: Python was created, basically, to be a successor to the ABC language. | 07:51 |
| === Aegir [~richard@129.96.218.186] has joined #ubuntu | ||

| Agrajag | wait | 07:52 |
| dataw0lf- | I can call C a scripting language if I want. | 07:52 |
| EightBit | Removable Devices, CD-Rom, Hard Drive, and Network | 07:52 |
| tritium | dataw0lf, but it's compiled | 07:52 |
| shadowjack | tritium, will there be problems if i move it to another directory? | 07:52 |
| Agrajag | what shows up on the CD when you put it in and look in windows explorer? | 07:52 |
| Harold | So I guess I should be learning FORTRAN, then, right? | 07:52 |
| tritium | shadowjack, nope, you'll be fine | 07:52 |
| Harold | LOL | 07:52 |
| dataw0lf- | tritium: 'scripting language' has nothing to do compilation. | 07:52 |
| FlannelKing | dataw0lf, python was originally designed as a scripting language | 07:52 |
| dataw0lf- | that's why you're getting it confused with 'interpreted'. | 07:52 |
| FlannelKing | tritium, thats interpreted | 07:52 |

| bimberi | oga: if your network isn't connected it waits to time out | 08:16 |
| pax | oga, check /etc/network/interface maybe you have something not set right there | 08:16 |
| oga | can i reduce the timeout time? | 08:16 |
| oga | k | 08:16 |
| oga | it might be because it waits for first ethernet then wlan to time out | 08:17 |
| Seveas | heh, yeah | 08:17 |
| Seveas | remove thea auto **** lines from /etc/network/interfaces for interfaces that aren't always connected | 08:17 |

| pax | dear Computer__Guru we're taking FSB + Timing = performance. | 08:31 |
| kevin06 | pax, here is a direct line from the motherboard. "They can support up to 2GB of memory using DDR 333/400 Memory. Can also support up to 3GB when using DDR 266 Memory. | 08:31 |
| Computer__Guru | i could have sworn i saw kev talking about available memory | 08:32 |
| Computer__Guru | see, i did | 08:32 |
| Computer__Guru | now stop being a smartass | 08:32 |

| Razor-X | well, FC3 had yum | 10:13 |
| Razor-X | ColonelKernel: try #linux | 10:13 |
| Trackilizer | and my mp3 player didnt work either | 10:13 |
| Trackilizer | everything works with ubuntu | 10:13 |
| Trackilizer | and ubuntu has ubuntuguide.org | 10:14 |
| Burgundavia | feugan3333, it is in the universe repository | 10:14 |
| Razor-X | on a Fedora box, back when there was FC1 and I tried it, I used apt-rpm for sanity | 10:14 |
| Trackilizer | very usefull | 10:14 |
| Chinman | Razor-X: it's still not work, but shows "E45: 'readonly' option is set (add ! to override) " | 10:14 |

| othernoob | Trackilizer: heh, Trackilizer FC3 has yum to install things, FC3 does not have mp3 support by default, but easily obtained. FC has a guide as well, by far better than the ubuntuguide ;).. and setting up a inet connection with FC is really easy | 10:14 |
| Razor-X | Chinman: that's because you have to be root to modify the file | 10:14 |
| Razor-X | you should've done sudo vi | 10:15 |
| Razor-X | if you want to go anywhere with vi, take the tutorial... if you want to go anywhere with Linux, learn emacs ;) | 10:15 |
| Trackilizer | well, my internet connection worked at boot up with ubuntu | 10:15 |
| Trackilizer | didnt with FC3 | 10:15 |
| Trackilizer | any my digicam didnt work with FC | 10:15 |
| Trackilizer | FC3* | 10:15 |
| Trackilizer | and my mp3 player | 10:16 |
| Trackilizer | so... | 10:16 |
| feugan3333 | Will the packages in Universe ever be newer that the packages from the default repository, thereby upgrading default packages? | 10:16 |
| axis | :] | 10:16 |
| Burgundavia | feugan3333, universe is a different repo | 10:16 |
| axis | wow what ablast from the past | 10:16 |
| Razor-X | feugan3333: universe and multiverse are meant to supplement the packages from the main repos | 10:16 |
| Burgundavia | there are no packages in universe that are in main | 10:16 |
| Razor-X | backports are meant to contain different versions, but YMMV | 10:16 |
| feugan3333 | so there is no danger of replacing packages? | 10:17 |
| Burgundavia | no | 10:17 |
| Razor-X | Your Mileage May Vary | 10:17 |
| Razor-X | things can break, be careful if you decide to use backports | 10:17 |

| bojangles | bojangles, well lyx seems to make its own unique kind of mixed format | 01:27 |
| orangerange | bojangles, speaking of latex, i've never heard of it. When i think of webpage creation, i think of html files. am i wrong to think this? | 01:27 |
| bojangles | bojangles, so i have not found a converter from lyx to html | 01:27 |
| orangerange | bojangles, why are you writing to yourself ? 8-) | 01:27 |

| bojangles | bojangles, but lyx-qt is very easy to use for a lot of things and is GPL | 01:27 |
| orangerange | is bojangles trying to convince himself? 8-) | 01:28 |
| bojangles | orangerange, no...most webpages are still html | 01:28 |
| orangerange | just joking | 01:28 |
| bojangles | orangerange, although a few have gone to xml with their own sylesheets. | 01:28 |
| orangerange | so i don't have to bother with lyx or latex for now, right? They are advanced stuff, yes? | 01:28 |

| Nermal | nalioth: what was your question | 02:52 |
| docnova | well thats why I said "can anyone one help me with a sound issue" | 02:52 |
| Nermal | peregil: or dmesg | 02:52 |
| Nermal | you should get a /dev/dsp device | 02:52 |

| redguy | G|immer: this would reinstall firefox and hopefully leave the firefox config | 02:55 |

| axis^zzz | ubuntu, what language do you want | 04:27 |
| nikkia | J_P: if you start a GUI emacs window, then run 'start-server' to enable the emacsclient processing, then set EDITOR=/usr/bin/emacsclient, as a user, if you less a file and hit 'v' to edit, it opens the file in the emacs window, which is good | 04:27 |

| nikkia | J_P, depends on how its used, but yes, in theory, it is more secure | 04:36 |
| cion | like what? | 04:36 |
| concept10 | signius, I would like to know that myself. Some kernel updates do not apply to all architectures | 04:36 |
| sJaM | isn't it sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/<device> <mountpoint> ? | 04:36 |

| ubuntu | yes sjam in efective is like you say :d | 04:38 |
| G|immer | meaning, while playing UT, if an app such as gaim displayes a dialogue, UT switches to window mode, and loses focus. how to prevent that? | 04:38 |
| concept10 | shutdown gaim while you are playing :) | 04:38 |
| signius | how would i use the apt-listchanges | 04:38 |
| Nalo | Hello everybody! | 04:38 |
| Nermie | man apt-listchanges | 04:38 |
| Nermie | :) | 04:39 |
| G|immer | concept10: the problem is that, all other apps can cause this. lol | 04:39 |
| sJaM | I thought in gaim there is an option that raises windows on events | 04:39 |
| concept10 | G|immer, what apps? | 04:39 |
| sJaM | perhaps you have it on ? | 04:39 |
| signius | theres is no such command that i can find thats why i am asking | 04:39 |
| signius | did you actually try typing man apt-listchages before posting it | 04:40 |
| Nalo | Have anyone installed and configured a linmodem (winmodem) in ubuntu? | 04:40 |
| G|immer | concept10: for example, I was now playing while Synaptics was downloading some packages. A problem occured, and I lost UT focus. | 04:40 |

| Nermie | you'll need mplayer and the codecs | 04:41 |
| signius | ah it looks like apt-listchanges is a package in itself that needs to be installed its not part of the standard apt | 04:42 |
| Nermie | ubotu: w32codecs | 04:42 |
| ubotu | rumour has it, w32codecs is a set of codecs needed to play many common audio and video formats, such as WMV. You can install w32codecs from the Backports repositories (see: http://backports.ubuntuforums.org). | 04:42 |
| tritium | signius, the short answer is that you install it, and it should be setup to list changes at each update. If you want to customize it, read the docs in /usr/share/doc/apt-listchanges. | 04:42 |
| ubuntu | it dosent recongnize the program mplayer | 04:42 |
| Nermie | ubuntu: see above | 04:42 |

| Eagle_Fire | Okay, i must be missing something really obvious. I'm trying to install the HostAP drivers on my Ubuntu (kernel 2.6.10-7-686) - I know I have to compile them, but when I do it's trying to install the modules in the wrong place, and when I move them to the right place, the drivers won't load | 06:16 |
| Sionide | Mephist0_, when you've done those - it'll list way more packages | 06:16 |
| Sionide | tis the first thing you should do on any ubuntu box :) | 06:17 |
| cmihai | It's fucked up. | 06:17 |
| tritium | nice catch, daniels, and you're the one set away... ;) | 06:17 |
| cmihai | Any LyX users around? If so, what's wrong with LyX's paste? It simply won't paste (even as external lines/paragraphs), but paste the stuff I just deleted or selected in LyX, or even paste stuff over and over again. But NEVER does it paste what I want it to paste (like what's supposed to be in the clipboard), what I just copied! | 06:17 |

| bojangles | cmihai, again what are you trying to paste to | 06:18 |
| Sionide | unless you do the server install, the standard default install is aimed at the desktop so ftpd and apache and stuff are not included | 06:18 |

| marcot | What's the motivation of creating a new distribution if there's already debian, and what's the main difference between them? | 07:26 |
| marcot | Can someone please explain it for me? | 07:26 |
| teferi | Oh. That might be it... | 07:26 |
| The_Vox | marcin: objectives. | 07:26 |
| Amaranth | marcot: Ubuntu's focus is the desktop. | 07:26 |
| teferi | marcot: ubuntu releases more often than debian | 07:26 |
| teferi | fixed six-month release cycle | 07:27 |
| === ed1t\food is now known as ed1t | ||
| marcot | TerminX: is this the only main difference? | 07:27 |
| Schonhose | Imagine this: I have 2 machines, athos and laptop who are able to ping each other. I've set cups on athos as a server (I hope) and made the printer browsable | 07:27 |
| The_Vox | marcot: debian's objectives and ubuntu's objectives are different...which ends up meaning that the distros themselfs differ in many things. | 07:27 |
| === beyond-out is now known as beyond | ||
| marcot | Amaranth: so in a server you would choose debian instead of ubuntu? | 07:27 |

| Sputn1k | how to update kubuntu 4.10 to 5.04??? | 07:28 |
| The_Vox | marcot: debian's focus is stability and as many platforms as they can get away with...ubuntu's objective is A Very Good Desktop | 07:28 |

| teferi | emacsen: it's generally a bad idea to install updates unattended | 07:33 |
| teferi | or so i've found | 07:33 |
