| bagger | you don't format it | 12:14 |

| === Brunellus rages. | ||
| levander | othernoob: then I think, yes, you can reinstall ubuntu and keep your current /home. Just be very careful during the partition step of installation that /home is mounted, but is not supposed to be *formatted* | 12:14 |
| Brunellus | I bought this card because the wiki had said it was already supported.... | 12:14 |
| levander | othernoob: I'd even make a backup of your /home before doing the re-install if possible. | 12:14 |
| Brunellus | the madwifi version on the hoary install disk is (I have since learnt) too old to make it work | 12:14 |
| bagger | levander, no need | 12:14 |
| bagger | ;) | 12:15 |

| bagger | i ment formatting instead of partitioning | 12:17 |
| bagger | ;) | 12:17 |
| Brunellus | they're telling me over on #madwifi that the hoary kernel might be too old to build their cvs against | 12:17 |
| Brunellus | so I need to know how current the breezy version of madwifi is | 12:17 |
| levander | othernoob: yeah, but not so many choices you drown in them, like linux installers in years gone by have let you do | 12:17 |
| bagger | othernoob, yes.. correct.. but some choice can lead to problems | 12:17 |
| Brunellus | and whether or not installing breezy's linux-restricted package will break my moniotr. | 12:18 |
| levander | Brunellus: just tell them the kernel version number? retrieve it with "uname -a" | 12:18 |
| robotgeek | a 2.6.10 kernel is too old? | 12:18 |
| othernoob | bagger: well, it wouldn't be too difficult to make a "just install the damn thing" and "please mr. expert tell me what to do" installer :) | 12:18 |

| Brunellus | which I have tried to apply-- | 12:25 |
| othernoob | levander: if i knew the problems...but during booting i get way too many way too fast to even know what i should fix | 12:25 |

| levander | the version of firefox in the repositories is broken?? | 12:30 |
| thesilentkiller | sissons, how do i get to it? yes, i am a newbie, to some extent | 12:30 |
| levander | in the hoary repositories or the breezy ones?? | 12:30 |
| wing` | bagger, it was working... i changed the workgroup becase it was wrong and it worked, but now i turned off Firestarter, and when i turn on again it stopped working | 12:30 |

| Amaranth | levander: both, see topic | 12:30 |

| sissons | thesilentkiller, i can't remember the url, but type ubuntu backports into google, its the first hit | 12:31 |

| Dr_Fate | raven3x7, a person could convert all of there mp3s to ogg in a short period | 12:50 |

| Dr_Fate | DekaPink, http://ubuntuguide.org/ | 12:50 |
| Dr_Fate | postmodern, yes | 12:50 |
| raven3x7 | Dr_Fate, that would worsen the sound quality though | 12:50 |
| catolh | theine, nice! thanks alot! :D | 12:50 |
| Dr_Fate | raven3x7, depends | 12:50 |

| postmodern | Dr_Fate, hell yeah! | 12:50 |
| |rockinnerd| | DekaPink, do you have the ATI graphics driver installed? | 12:51 |
| Dr_Fate | raven3x7, say if the mp3 is encoded @160 making it a 128 ogg would not be a noticable difference | 12:51 |

| levander | admrl_: type that | 01:26 |
| admrl_ | ok | 01:26 |
| levander | admrl_: escputil is apparently a proram that gimp-print tries to run | 01:26 |
| admrl_ | it didnt say anything | 01:26 |
| levander | admrl_: but for gimp-print to find it, or any other program to find it, it's got to be in your PATH | 01:27 |

| codecaine | jmspeex, i got it open now what? | 01:38 |
| jwb | levander: no it stayed as dma = 0 | 01:39 |

| jmspeex | codecaine: trying to cring up the sidebar crashes firefox, 100% of the time. | 01:39 |
| jwb | that is ridiculously bad. i guess you could try cdrdao or abcde or something to check if it's grip's fault | 01:39 |

| thespiritoftal | oh thanks | 01:52 |
| jwb | mindsuck: i don't bother with flashplayer. if you want flash to work, you need to install a 32-bit firefox or whatever browser you use (konqueror can load 32-bit flash player, if you want to use KDE). other 32-bit packages work fine as long as you install the ia32-libs package | 01:52 |

| levander | thespiritoftal: there is a kill applet for the gnome panel, you click on the applet, then the window, the window gets killed | 01:53 |
| tha_gamemaster | thespiritoftal, you can open a terminal, type xkill then hit enter, then click on the dead program | 01:53 |
| othernoob | thespiritoftal: there is a kill command..it's called kill | 01:53 |

| tha_gamemaster | jwb, ok here's the tricky part, i want to install it on an external hard drive... but ppc | 01:56 |
| patrickj | is enabling a root account unsafe | 01:56 |
| jwb | gamemaster: can you expand on "external" a bit? is this a powerbook? | 01:56 |
| mindsuck | jwb: In ubuntu hoary on amd64. :) | 01:56 |
| levander | jwb: i'm ripping this cd to a network share. Is it possible that the network is so slow that it's slowing down my rip this much? | 01:56 |
| jwb | mindsuck: i'm not aware of any | 01:56 |
| tha_gamemaster | it's a dual g4 powermac tower, external as in the hard drive is in an external enclosure connected direclty to the motherboard via firewire | 01:57 |
| codecaine | levin, very possible | 01:57 |
| mindsuck | jwb: Cool deal. Thanks for the input. | 01:57 |
| codecaine | levander, very possible | 01:57 |
| vader_ | I am going to try and get an amd 64 for testing from work, they will probably do it | 01:57 |
| jwb | gamemaster: on a mac, you should have no problem installing and booting from a 1394 disk. | 01:57 |
| jwb | gamemaster: much harder on a pc, i'm afraid | 01:57 |

| tha_gamemaster | jwb: right! the mac is good i'm not having a problem with the 1394 boot, it's getting ubuntu to recognise the device is there so i can install to it | 01:58 |
| levander | well, i'm encoding a wav file to an ogg on that share, i'm ripping a cd to a wave on that share, that's the two things I got going that are heavy bandwidth right now. Could that be enough to slow it down? | 01:58 |
| jwb | gamemaster: you don't see it in the installer? you might need to load the "sbp2" module | 01:58 |

| mindsuck | jwb: The Debian FAQ says OO.org hasn't been ported to 64 yet. Any news on that? | 01:59 |
| tha_gamemaster | codecaine, yea or in the installer you can quit the step you're on and scroll down to the bottom and open a shell | 01:59 |

| tha_gamemaster | jwb, yea it's been this way as long as i've been using firewire... it always mounts usb and firewire via scsi emulation | 02:03 |
| hybrid | Jugan: do this sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list and see if it has hoary or warty in there | 02:04 |

| === thesilentkiller [~du@69.177.143.143] has left #ubuntu [] | ||
| Jugan | hybrid: besides that...what else | 02:04 |
| jwb | gamemaster: well that makes sense, because the sbp2 protocol *is* scsi, not emulation. | 02:04 |
| vader_ | brb gotta try it | 02:04 |
| jwb | gamemaster: all i know is i was once able to install linux on an ipod from a powerbook | 02:04 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | the only question i have now is | 02:04 |
| patrickj | jwb: no not really | 02:04 |
| hybrid | Jugan: you could uname -a and see which kernel you have compared to hoary kernel | 02:04 |
| patrickj | jwb: im looking for one relatively easy to learn | 02:05 |
| jwb | patrickj: you might try python then | 02:05 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | when i ran the setup cd to trouble shoot a network problem it said that my cpu supports stepping | 02:05 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | but when i ran my old ubuntu install off of the hard drive | 02:05 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | it said it dosen't what gives? | 02:05 |
| patrickj | jwb: is it easy/good? | 02:05 |
| Jugan | hybrid: i installed warty, but I upgraded using the Hoary CD...does that make my Warty a Hoary? | 02:05 |
| thespiritoftal | I have installed xmms as written in ubuntuguide.org and associated it with mp3 files and now when I try to open a mp3 file it just gets stuck... any reasons why? | 02:05 |
| jwb | patrickj: with python you can make normal command-line programs, and do GUI stuff, and interact with database, files, network, etc | 02:05 |

| Jugan | hybrid: i included an entry in the sources.list that looks for updates in the Hoary CD and it did update some packages... | 02:06 |
| tha_gamemaster | jwb, how did you do it? i'm basically doing the exact same thing. i have my iPod at the ready but no desire to install it there... not enough space | 02:06 |
| patrickj | no I downloaded a .deb package, how can I install it | 02:06 |
| levander | patrickj: yeah, python is great place to start. Is very general purpose language, can do lots of different things with it. And is simple enough that is a good learning language. But, is good enough, will still want to use it as you know more and more about programming. | 02:06 |
| Jugan | hybrid: yeah, but i only have dial-up, kindda slow, so i used the CD instead | 02:06 |

| joevandyk | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCards is very wrong when it comes to the D-Link DWL-G520. (using the ath chipset) I'm on a 64 bit machine. I had to download madwifi cvs and sharutils, do some tricky compiling with madwifi (it needed four environment vars set), and then a make install. | 02:30 |
| Razor-X | that's my main gripe, regexps in emacs are pretty powerless | 02:30 |
| Razor-X | that's why I use sed when I need something like that | 02:30 |
| Razor-X | joevandyk: 4 environment vars are tricky? | 02:31 |
| Razor-X | you haven't seen a tricky compile then ;) | 02:31 |
| joevandyk | Right now, I have two sets of madwifi's installed, one from cvs and one from kernel-restricted. How do I get rid of the kernel-restricted ones, and get the system to use the new madwifi. | 02:31 |

| xceses | ok in my xorg.conf file it said everything is set to 1280/786 though in gnome the screen res option is 640/480?!?! | 02:32 |
| joevandyk | Razor-X, they're tricky when you gotta export KERNELPATH and KERNELVERSION because their build system builds it for the wrong kernel and then use this command for the build: make TARGET="x86_64-elf" TOOLPREFIX="" | 02:32 |
| patrickj | does emacs have Syntax highlighting snd stuff? | 02:32 |
| Forty| | xceses, you could do a kill -9 -1 and startx manually and see if anythign changes | 02:33 |
| lachu_ | hav u not heard of it, it a game server that u cn log on to to play a game called PA | 02:33 |
| Razor-X | joevandyk: when you compile a kernel... this will al be nice air ;) | 02:33 |

| jchoisy | isai, yes, we too. But not wpa | 04:44 |

| richard25killing | ok | 04:59 |
| richard25killing | can i get packages off the internet | 04:59 |
| richard25killing | to install on here | 05:00 |
| richard25killing | or just from you | 05:00 |
| abarbaccia | bob2, im not using packages outside ubuntu - im trying to install transcode from the ubuntu-extras repository | 05:00 |
| bob2 | richard25killing: you can get ubuntu packages off the internet, yes | 05:00 |
| thoreauputic | richard25killing: use the package manager | 05:00 |

| vinboy | if I click cancel,,, the program quite itself | 05:01 |
| richard25killing | ok | 05:01 |

| bob2 | richard25killing: what do you want that isn't in ubuntu? | 05:01 |

| gigaclon | ubuntu, it complicated | 05:53 |
| mebaran151 | is in the installer | 05:53 |
| FlibidyFloo | hi. i'm installing ubuntu on a spare partition on an existing debian box. i skipped installing grub because i already have it installed, and i'm trying to boot from the existing grub installation to continue the setup by hand-editing the grub command lines. ubuntu is going on /dev/sda9. here are the commands i'm entering for grub: | 05:53 |
| thoreauputic | ubuntu: not easily - there are a few ways for some things | 05:53 |
| razerslut | how can i play .m4a files in ubuntu? | 05:53 |
| crimsun | ubuntu: nor can you hook up a telephone into a toaster. | 05:53 |
| Dr_Fate | crimsun, 5.3? is there a Firefox 1.5.3? | 05:53 |
| mebaran151 | razerslut, search synatpic for gstreamer-aac | 05:53 |
| osity | mebaran151: it wont boot ,......you would know this if you set it up | 05:53 |
| gigaclon | ubuntu, but most things you can do in windows you can do in linux | 05:53 |
| FlibidyFloo | root (hd0,8)kernel | 05:53 |
| FlibidyFloo | (hd0,8)/vmlinuz root=/dev/hda9 | 05:53 |
| FlibidyFloo | boot | 05:53 |
| razerslut | mebaran151: thank you | 05:53 |
| crimsun | razerslut: use faad, or gstreamer-faad, or libfaad with amarok/kaffeine | 05:53 |
| DekaPink | So there's nothing I can do, then? :3 | 05:53 |
| razerslut | hmm | 05:53 |
| razerslut | well im using rhythm box to play music | 05:54 |
| FlibidyFloo | but the boot fails. with "file not found" | 05:54 |
| FlibidyFloo | any ideas? | 05:54 |
| mebaran151 | osity, osity it will boot | 05:54 |
| mebaran151 | I did it | 05:54 |
| mebaran151 | on my AMD64 system | 05:54 |
| osity | mebaran151:you would know this if you tried to set it up.....there are all kinds of error with missing devices | 05:54 |
| mebaran151 | oh | 05:54 |
| ubuntu | no, I was just messin' around... I can't mount my hd though with "sudo mount -t ntfs -o umask=002 /dev/hda1 /mnt/blahblah | 05:54 |
| crimsun | Dr_Fate: 5.3 is the package revision suffix | 05:54 |
| mebaran151 | did you make a separate boot parition that you dont mirror | 05:54 |
| mebaran151 | I just realized you must not have done that | 05:54 |
| mebaran151 | I always do that | 05:54 |
| crimsun | ubuntu: did you mkdir /mnt/blahblah first? | 05:54 |
| osity | what do you mean ? | 05:55 |
| mebaran151 | like at the start of the first harddisk | 05:55 |
| geneo91 | crimsun: i the new alsa driver in any hoary repositories | 05:55 |
| ubuntu | nope, didn't know i had to... | 05:55 |
| geneo91 | is | 05:55 |
| mebaran151 | dont mirror /boot (it isnt worth it) | 05:55 |
| crimsun | geneo91: hoary? no. | 05:55 |
| osity | ah ... | 05:55 |
| mebaran151 | it takes a lot of setup to make that work | 05:55 |
| mebaran151 | so then you reserve like 100 megs for /boot | 05:55 |
| mebaran151 | make the rest / or divide it between your mnt points | 05:55 |
| razerslut | crimsun: i dont have either of those files in my synaptic manager | 05:55 |
| geneo91 | k thx crimsun | 05:56 |
| osity | well I was thinking of having a smaller pata drive for the system and then having /home on the mirrored 200 gb drives | 05:56 |
| mebaran151 | so for the first partition use ext3 for /boot | 05:56 |
| mebaran151 | oh | 05:56 |
| mebaran151 | that will work splendidly | 05:56 |

| crimsun | Dr_Fate: don't uninstall it, just install the older version | 06:10 |
| crimsun | I have the 5.3 if you need it. | 06:10 |
| Dr_Fate | crimsun, the older version does not present itself to be installed | 06:10 |
| Dr_Fate | crimsun, I guess I need it | 06:10 |

| hks3207 | troll | 07:21 |
| dabaR | hks3207: why not? | 07:21 |
| wizo | its 192.168.1.254 | 07:21 |

| thoreauputic | HkS-3207: don't repeat, please. And I don't agree with the premise of the question anyway | 07:21 |
| hks3207 | whats that | 07:21 |
| bluefoxicy | I can make ubuntu look like windows | 07:21 |

| hks3207 | yah but i mean | 07:21 |

| dabaR | ok, put that in a web browser, and log in. | 07:21 |
| hks3207 | cuz its easy but i though that windows was designed as a rival of windows or sumthing like that | 07:21 |
| freddy | damn...is there a lack of xmms skins around the net or what? | 07:22 |
| dabaR | ya, windows is a rival of windows for sure. Agreed. | 07:22 |
| Nocturno | im an new use too for this OS ( ... :p) | 07:22 |

| patrickj | kk | 08:06 |

| Necrosan_ | I've enabled the right ports for a gameserver, but I still cannot connect except on my internal network | 08:06 |
| Necrosan_ | what's the problem? | 08:07 |

| spanglesontoast | does anyone know much about proftpd on how to set it up so when people login it takes them to their home dir? | 08:07 |
| La_PaRCa | Necrosan_, most likely has something to do with port forwarding at your router | 08:07 |
| arbir | bob2 its a serial mouse. it goes into a com port.. | 08:07 |
| Necrosan_ | Not using a router | 08:07 |
| Necrosan_ | Using a switch | 08:07 |
| arbir | bob2 the port is something like where you plug in your monitor | 08:07 |
| thoreauputic | jcarr: :/ did you look at the repos link? | 08:07 |
| thoreauputic | !repos | 08:07 |
| ubotu | hmm... repos is at http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/AddingRepositoriesHowto | 08:07 |
| arbir | bob2 i guess that is a com port | 08:07 |
| Computer__Guru | spanglesontoast: it should do that automatically.. | 08:07 |
| La_PaRCa | Necrosan_, then what do you mean your "local network"? | 08:07 |
| Necrosan_ | ubuntu has two nics, eth0 connects to the internet and eth1 is for the internal network | 08:08 |
| Kovecses | luckyaba, THANKS!!!!!!!!!!!! | 08:08 |

| Necrosan_ | Uhh | 08:09 |
| bob2 | spanglesontoast: try the proftpd irc channel or mailing list | 08:09 |
| Necrosan_ | They are listening on all the nics. | 08:09 |
| La_PaRCa | Necrosan_, you need to set iptables to work as a NAT | 08:09 |

| visor | Computer__Guru: yes it is, samba has always given me headaches | 10:04 |
| alex1221 | hi. has anyone an idea how i can let start my ubuntu its vncserver from startup, so i can write my username and password though vnc to login the computer and work with that without to be at the computer? | 10:04 |
| visor | im going for NFS, i think is safer and i dont really want to have windows network support | 10:04 |
| Computer__Guru | slask3n_: then your friends would need to know the password before they could do anything more than select a simple menu entry | 10:04 |
| Computer__Guru | alex1221: man vncserver | 10:04 |
| anacron | alex1221: i think ubuntu does start vnc from startup automaticly | 10:05 |
| slask3n_ | Computer__Guru: i want to boot the computer as normal, but i want password if they want to enter the grub menu.. is that wha it does? | 10:05 |
| Eilonwy05 | Computer__Guru: Am I wrong, or doesn't Hoary use libata to treat all ide devices as scsi? I already checked dmesg output, it detects my ide HDD as sda, at SCSI address 0,0,0... but no mention of my optical drive | 10:05 |
| alex1221 | :) yes it starts only AFTER i entered the username and password | 10:05 |
| Computer__Guru | Eilonwy05: if its a standard atapi drive it should just work.. i hate to say this but maybe reset your config data in the laptop bios | 10:05 |
| dabaR | later | 10:06 |
| Computer__Guru | slask3n_: i dont know about grub. but i know this is functionality that lilo has | 10:06 |
| visor | that is the kind of things that makes users run away from windows | 10:06 |
| visor | from linux i mean | 10:06 |

| joevandyk | slask3n_, no idea why though. i always preferred lilo. simpler | 10:07 |
| Computer__Guru | grub supports reiserfs, dont know that lilo does, as i usually use ext3.. but from what i gather its a preference thing.. i prefer lilo, cause im comfortable with it | 10:07 |
| Eilonwy05 | slask3n_: grub usually plays nicer with windows, and doesn't need reconfigure after a new kernel | 10:07 |
| Computer__Guru | plays nicer with windows? | 10:08 |
| === Computer__Guru never had a problem with lilo | ||
| Computer__Guru | ever | 10:08 |

| slask3n_ | Eilonwy05: what it does with windows i dont give a fuck about, windows aint coming near my computer before many years after my death! :P but if its much trouble while changing kernel i think grub is better.. i used lilo on mandrake, but that was the first distro i ever used, so i almost was too n00b to understand what it even was :P | 10:10 |

| Computer__Guru | if you know how to set one of those up right | 10:14 |

| Madpilot | ricosuave17: apache & everything else *is* opensource. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LAMPForHoary | 10:16 |
| visor | mf_: than if you are a bit lost with gparted than run away from fdisk as its harder to use :P | 10:16 |
| slask3n_ | Madpilot: you dont need apache just to run an mysql database | 10:16 |
| ricosuave17 | no all i want is to make a database | 10:16 |
| Computer__Guru | visor: yeah, but take into account that microsoft has raised an entire generation of users who do not even know how to navigate a filesystem. and i dont just mean cli, some of them don't know anything exists beyond "My Documents" on their computer by way of files they can get to | 10:17 |

| slask3n_ | ricosuave17: what shit? | 10:18 |
| Computer__Guru | mf_: that was a scripted frontend to fdisk or maybe cfdisk. it was part of the install script | 10:18 |
| mf_ | ok | 10:19 |
| ricosuave17 | the mysql server | 10:19 |
| mf_ | Now is there another way to set my mount points than editing fstab ? | 10:19 |
| holycow | Computer__Guru, good point, i would like to add that that in and of it self is not their biggest evil | 10:19 |
| Computer__Guru | yeah, you setup /etc/fstab manually after you create the partition and filesystem on it | 10:19 |
| slask3n_ | ricosuave17: what do you want to do? | 10:19 |
| visor | Computer__Guru: yeah, i know, and much of the blame i give it to patents and formats and things like that, people in linux for example always complain about samba, mp3 support, wmv support, and the like, if we just encouraged to use things natively like ogg, nfs, theora and so forth, then we may be out of trouble, or at least we would had a lot less problems than we do now | 10:19 |
| ricosuave17 | make a simple database | 10:19 |

| holycow | they tried and ms basically said you cant licence it because it is 'part of the os' and they don't licence out the os | 10:25 |
| visor | for example, imagine distro makers putting effort on nfs for the desktop to have easy share features, leaving support (or at least leaving bug tracking) to the maintainers of samba, because samba is mainly a thing that is decided from MS, which is not bad, the bad is that as long as we dont control the standard we always have to watch changes and adapt them | 10:25 |

| Tomcat_ | About topic: How is Firefox broken? | 10:36 |
| Computer__Guru | or c:\Program Files\ for most windows users | 10:36 |
| visor | holycow: see, windows has problems with registry, dependencies and the like ok? | 10:36 |
| LiberalTugboat | Tomcat_, firefox is broken 18 ways from saturday | 10:36 |
| benplaut | Tomcat_: the 1.06 update in backports was broken | 10:36 |
| visor | holycow: but that is no reason for saying that if a linux distro have them, then its ok because windows does too | 10:36 |
| Computer__Guru | my firefox works just fine | 10:36 |
| LiberalTugboat | closes unexpectidly | 10:36 |
| joevandyk | Openoffice is pretty broken for 64 bit, right? | 10:36 |
| holycow | and the fact that everything on windows is simply wrong, okay ... | 10:36 |
| Tomcat_ | Mine works fine as well... o_O | 10:36 |
| Computer__Guru | simply wrong? | 10:37 |
| LiberalTugboat | my firefox wont download when you left click on links | 10:37 |
| holycow | visor, i think you need to rethink how you do your platform comparisons | 10:37 |
| Tomcat_ | I had that "close unexpectedly"... :I | 10:37 |
| Tomcat_ | Oh well, still usable. | 10:37 |
| Computer__Guru | windows is fine, it's who uses it that determines the overall experience | 10:37 |
| holycow | first, windows was designed in the 80's on an adhoc basis | 10:37 |
| LiberalTugboat | I have heard of people with crashing | 10:37 |
| visor | and so if windows do have deps problems, registry, virus, adware etc... it doesnt mean we should make a solution for dependencies in linux (which are, of course, easier to fix than in windows) | 10:37 |

| holycow | they added stuff to it as the market demanded | 10:37 |
| ploum | can someone point me to the detailled Ubuntu roadmap please ? | 10:37 |
| holycow | unix on the other hand was designed in a lab by proffesors and theoreticians | 10:37 |
| holycow | which is why its 30 plus years old without a lot of change, it didn't need to change | 10:38 |
| LiberalTugboat | ploum... new release every six months | 10:38 |
| visor | holycow: maybe i didnt make myself clear, sorry but english is not my main language :P | 10:38 |
| IceDC571 | wizo: that is strange.. winter in july, eh? its the opposite here, we are at about 100F degrees.. which is like insanely hott | 10:38 |

| ploum | LiberalTugboat, the detailled please. With freeze date, beta release, etc... | 10:38 |
| LiberalTugboat | umm | 10:38 |
| holycow | i.e. all you are really saying is why doesn't apt track the extraneous libraries | 10:38 |
| LiberalTugboat | there is one in the wiki | 10:38 |
| === njan [~james@james.user] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| holycow | which is an okay thing to complain about, but in reality it has 0 impact because it's not a problem | 10:39 |
| holycow | you can always remove them manually if you want | 10:39 |
| LiberalTugboat | its under the "breezygoals" page | 10:39 |
| holycow | super simple, one installer, one package, one way to do things | 10:39 |
| LiberalTugboat | though I dont think there is to many "solid dates" | 10:39 |
| holycow | i'm certain if someone wanted to, they can extend synaptic to track this, or apt | 10:39 |
| Computer__Guru | eh | 10:39 |
| Computer__Guru | its a word | 10:39 |
| === bcroq [~bertrand@bruz.freeskop.net] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| Computer__Guru | DRAT! FOILED ONCE AGAIN | 10:39 |
| LiberalTugboat | holycow, with shared dependencies if there is a security flaw then one patch can fix every program on your system | 10:40 |
| holycow | but the reality of the situation is that on a unix system, a) its not a big deal b) hard drive spaces are so cheap it doesnt matter c) they don't really affect anything because the system is robust so leaving them really doesn't affect things (where on windows it usually does) | 10:40 |
| visor | holycow: what i only mean is, that linux in general has this problem, you install a package, dependencies are installed too, then when the packages gets uninstalled dependencies are left behind, i dont know you but my synaptic by default doesnt this, and i know aptitude does it, and using apt-get, dselect or whatever command line tool does it too, but if i was a user that is not a geek i would know this dependencies are left there, and my | 10:40 |
| visor | disk would be full of them | 10:40 |
| thespiritoftal | is there any way I can open *.rar archives in linux? | 10:40 |
| holycow | and the most impotant one is what LiberalTugboat | 10:40 |
| LiberalTugboat | if you have all dependecies packages with each program that you have to update every program that has the library | 10:40 |
| visor | and it was only an example | 10:40 |
| parabolize | visor, use aptitude | 10:41 |
| holycow | visor, the reason we use shared dependencies is that when its shared a problem can be fixed with one change to the whole system | 10:41 |
| holycow | yor complaint therefore is completely invalid | 10:41 |
| Computer__Guru | thing is what if i install package a which requires library b then i install package c which also requires library b, what if i then remove package a? will it also remove library b? | 10:41 |
| EdLin | visor, install deborphan | 10:41 |
| holycow | visor, what i'm saying is that its not a problem | 10:41 |
| visor | parabolize: i can, ill do, but many people wont because its not the way to go | 10:41 |
| holycow | you just think its a problem because your used to using windows | 10:41 |
| visor | holycow: no, im more used to linux by know believe me | 10:41 |
| LiberalTugboat | visor, it also lowers resourse usage | 10:41 |
| visor | holycow: how many years you been using unix/linux? | 10:42 |
| holycow | probably not as long as you :) don't mistake my enthusiasm for more than that | 10:42 |
| LiberalTugboat | static libraries is NOT the fix for dependecy problems | 10:42 |
| LiberalTugboat | following LSB is the solution | 10:42 |
| holycow | right i agree | 10:42 |
| thespiritoftal | is there anyway to open rar archive in linux? | 10:42 |
| wizo | thespiritoftal: tar | 10:43 |
| Computer__Guru | by now, not by know (now, a point in time referring to this instance, and know, understanding and familiarity with something. Know is also biblical slang for marital-relations.) | 10:43 |
| wizo | err i mean | 10:43 |
| Burgundavia | LiberalTugboat, the lsb is not a panacea | 10:43 |
| visor | holycow: no, i just asked to let you know that im not a windows fan, i have many years using linux, if id be frustrated i wont be using it in this very moment | 10:43 |
| wizo | gzip | 10:43 |
| EdLin | thespiritoftal, unrar | 10:43 |
| holycow | thespiritoftal, you can also install rar and unrar, then the file roller can open them up | 10:43 |
| LiberalTugboat | Burgundavia, yeah but it is a very good start | 10:43 |
| Computer__Guru | every time adam knew eve, they spit out another kid | 10:43 |

| LiberalTugboat | we have the technology and the resources, but they need to work together | 10:44 |
| Computer__Guru | vmware pwnz | 10:44 |

| visor | and so the only thing im complaining is that if we dont abstract this things from the underpinning techonologies then we will never have normal users coming to linux, because its hard, its hard to get it running sometimes, its hard to do trivial stuff sometimes, and yes, its way much better than windows :) | 10:58 |

| Computer__Guru | not everybody is doing it part time :D | 10:58 |
| holycow | Computer__Guru, well to be fair whatever ibm is giving linux is peanuts. do you know what the kernel alone is worth in devewlopment dollars? | 10:59 |
| holycow | someone caclulated that the 2.6.x kernel is at minimum worth 600 million | 10:59 |
| aspro | bull | 10:59 |
| Computer__Guru | somebody said like seventy billion last year at a conference | 10:59 |
| holycow | the 10 mil or whatever ibm gives away is nothing compared to the 600 mil they get back | 10:59 |
| AMCDeathKnight | help? | 10:59 |
| holycow | then you put together all the other projects ... you have billions in developers time donated | 10:59 |
| IIIEars | Ya gotta hope Ubuntu's popularity is getting the right attention or will soon. | 10:59 |
| Computer__Guru | maybe im thinkig linux altogether | 10:59 |
| holycow | no | 10:59 |
| holycow | kernel alone | 10:59 |
| desrt | AMCDeathKnight; grep for one of the strings in .gconf or .gnome2 | 10:59 |
| Computer__Guru | it was a LOT more than ten mil | 10:59 |
| holycow | that single file | 10:59 |
| visor | QMario: you have to move some files from the plugins directory, or either delete them, all of them that starts with a swf* in their filename, as soon as you move them from the plugins directory then it will open | 11:00 |
| AMCDeathKnight | how? walk me through it | 11:00 |
| LiberalTugboat | Anyone here have an Nvidia video card? | 11:00 |
| holycow | Computer__Guru, ibm certainly didn't give away hundreds of millions, i'd like to see that tho | 11:00 |
| AMCDeathKnight | im new | 11:00 |
| desrt | AMCDeathKnight; like try$ grep -ri 'http://porn.site.net/babes.mpg' .gconf .gnome2 | 11:00 |

| Computer__Guru | but i was just pointing out its not part time to everyone..t he folks over at redhat corporation im sure would beg to differ with you | 11:00 |
| desrt | that'll ell you what file it's stored in and you can get rid of it :) | 11:00 |
| AMCDeathKnight | ok | 11:00 |
| allerbest | IIIEars, been there done that but in the list of supported resolutions there's already "1280x1024" | 11:00 |

| allerbest | IIIEars, and the documentation says that X.org will choose the highest possible resolution | 11:01 |
| holycow | Computer__Guru, indeed i agree, and with ubuntu hiring 20 debian dd's, yeah its getting better sure | 11:01 |

| sorush20 | holycow, ye... please | 11:23 |
| slask3n_ | Computer__Guru: i dont have time for that now, so that should be another day.. but are there any simple way to make it start on boot automaticly then? | 11:23 |
| aspro | sorush20: sounds like video card too me | 11:23 |
| gimme3d | ^^ lol | 11:23 |
| === EdLin prefers to browse the file system with "ls" | ||
| aspro | got drivers? | 11:23 |
| Computer__Guru | sure | 11:23 |
| holycow | sorush20, basically when you browse the windows file system, you aren't actually browsing the file system, you are browsing cached data | 11:24 |
| sorush20 | aspro, holycow, I thought it was video card too.. | 11:24 |
| sorush20 | okay... | 11:24 |
| holycow | ntfs is actually terribly slow when you have a lot of small files in a folder | 11:24 |
| Computer__Guru | slask3n_: sudo pico /etc/rc2.d/S64myscript - then put a simple script to start it, then sudo chmod a+x /etc/rc2.d/S64myscript | 11:24 |
| sorush20 | I'm not running ntfs... | 11:24 |
| gimme3d | k, i got two devices in xorg.conf defined. standard vga and "ati graphics adapter" installation of driver was successful - no errors (woohooo), removed old ones | 11:24 |
| aspro | holycow: i think he means his desktop as a whoile is lacking the "snappy" | 11:24 |
| holycow | sorush20, we don't have a caching mechanism for gnome just yet, so when you load up the files, it actually reads the files on the fs | 11:24 |
| gimme3d | but when i remove standard vga, xserver wont start.. | 11:25 |
| holycow | there is a project someone is supposed to be working on caching for nautilus but i donno where the project is | 11:25 |
| gimme3d | so system uses standard vga somehow? and got no 3d acc? | 11:25 |
| Computer__Guru | slask3n_: a simple script would be LINE1:#!/bin/bash LINE2:cd /path/to/myapp LINE3: ./myapp | 11:25 |
| slask3n_ | holycow: when did M$ start usinmg a lot of small files in a folder?? :P all their files have at least 5MB of unneccesary code all over in every file.. | 11:25 |
| LuNaTiK^GuY | wots the condole command to reconfigure x? | 11:26 |
| Computer__Guru | yeah that can be tedious and slow sometimes | 11:26 |
| holycow | sorush20, as for the snappyness, thats purely on the gnome/kde/desktop level | 11:26 |
| Computer__Guru | another reason to use kde :D | 11:26 |

| holycow | sorush20, there are desktop environments that are as snappy if not snappier than windows, gnome for some reason has that feel, kde is overall 'snappier' but that i'm sure has to do with some clever things they are doing over there | 11:27 |

| catolh | yeah, i like mplayer too. But the fact that the screensaver goes on when in fullscreen is irritating | 11:55 |

| nikola | does someone know what package contains raidhotadd? | 12:06 |
| holycow | slask3n, well i won't be able to help much, i was just curious. it basically sounds like udev is looking at your device and seeing the soundcard component and thusly classifying it as such. you may need to research into how udev looks at your device, and tell udev to create different nodes for it .... but thats fairly advanced stuff. it might be cheaper to just buy another cammy that works? | 12:07 |

| Zukero | but still, not thumbnails, and no videos in totem | 02:25 |
| liraz | concept10, it writes a whole new partition boot sector | 02:25 |
| mjr | razerslut, anyway, at least from the open location dialog, wasit ctrl-l | 02:25 |
| razerslut | mjr: yeah but these files and directories dont show up in file browser, why not? | 02:25 |
| razerslut | open location? | 02:26 |
| mjr | razerslut, these "dotfiles" are by convention hidden on unix | 02:26 |
| razerslut | ok | 02:26 |
| razerslut | how can i make them unhidden? | 02:26 |
| mjr | ctrl-l in file dialogs or the nautilus browser window, as said | 02:26 |
| Zukero | when I open a video with totem, I can hear the sound stream, but the video is replaced by some audio visualisation plug-in... | 02:26 |
| mjr | I think at least file dialogs have a right-click-menu that allows you to make them visible too | 02:26 |

| runge | tritium, that should be the same as searching online right? | 02:57 |
| lok | nldk, yes | 02:57 |
| tritium | runge, easier | 02:57 |
| Zukero | lok : i just switched to totem-xine cause totem-gst does not playback anything correctly | 02:57 |

| paulproteus | mgcross: Yeah, my script really is in order. | 03:48 |

| paulproteus | hayden: Ah. Then: | 03:49 |
| mgcross | paulproteus: rotflmo! | 03:49 |
| paulproteus | Step 1. Download the JDK from Sun, latest version. | 03:49 |
| mjr | asfra, it will "suffice", but you won't have much fun running GUI software on it, even light ones | 03:49 |
| paulproteus | That'll give you a .bin. | 03:49 |

| === Easty [~david@host217-44-145-113.range217-44.btcentralplus.com] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| paulproteus | Step 3: In the directory of the .bin from Sun, do "fakeroot make-jpkg that_sun_file.bin" | 03:49 |
| holycow | hey guys, what happens when you accidentally drag a panel and align it verrtically where the icons become huge? | 03:49 |
| holycow | how do you move it back to the top for example without deleting all the icons so you can grab the panel to drag? | 03:50 |
| paulproteus | And then follow make-jpkg's instructions. Once that's done (it'll be easy), install the package using "sudo dpkg -i some-package-name.deb" | 03:50 |
| mjr | holycow, you should be able to grab it right at the edge | 03:50 |
| mjr | holycow, if at first you don't succeed, try again | 03:50 |
| holycow | oh there we go | 03:50 |
| mjr | (and yes, there should be a better way) | 03:50 |
| paulproteus | asfra: You might be able to get XFCE4 running in 32MB of RAM, but it will be slow. | 03:50 |

| ValheruLord | hi all.... i installed kubuntu without any modems but then i plugged a modem via ethernet.. how can i config it... i want to add dhcp to start also | 04:30 |
| paulproteus | Whoa. You mean a DSL modem, ValheruLord? | 04:30 |
| Kyral | Jugan, you have to apt-get remove the kernel package | 04:30 |
| paulproteus | Where I come from, modems are for dial-up Internet access. | 04:30 |
| Belutz | Kyral: could you give the full url of the breezy deb-src ? | 04:30 |
| paulproteus | So attaching a model via Ethernet makes no sense to me. | 04:30 |
| ValheruLord | paulproteus, yeah | 04:30 |

| oggah | anyone got ubuntu with gnome screenshots looking identical to mac os x, or even nicer :) | 04:32 |
| Belutz | which one should i change then? | 04:32 |
| Discipulus | Chris_Tucker, just add the word "multiverse" to the deb line | 04:32 |
| paulproteus | dawnfading: Use java-package, and it will install nicely. | 04:32 |
| Kyral | Belutz, the ones beginning with deb-src | 04:32 |
| Jugan | kyral: how do i know the name of the kernel package? I dont wanna remove the current kernel by mistake... | 04:32 |
| Chris_Tucker | Discipulus, i dont think its that easy | 04:32 |
| Kyral | Jugan, using Synaptic? | 04:33 |
| nalioth | Belutz: if you are only after source, just the deb-src lines | 04:33 |
| paulproteus | dawnfading: Do you know what I'm talking about, or do you need further help? | 04:33 |
| Jugan | kyral: ok, where does it belong? Which category? | 04:33 |
| paulproteus | dawnfading: Look at http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/142 for more info. | 04:33 |
| Belutz | there are a lot lines begin with deb-src | 04:33 |
| dawnfading | paulproteus: ok | 04:34 |
| Kyral | Jugan, do a title search for linux | 04:34 |
| nalioth | Belutz: if i were you, i'd copy all the deb-src lines and change the words in the cloned line of text | 04:35 |
| Belutz | nalioth: ok :) | 04:35 |
| Kyral | Belutz, are you using a stock Source.list? | 04:35 |
| nalioth | Belutz: then when you are done, you can # the advanced lines out (until you are ready to totally upgrade) | 04:35 |
| Belutz | Kyral: yes... | 04:35 |
| Kyral | Then you should be okay to change all the deb-src | 04:36 |
| Kyral | and yes, running mixed hoary deb lines and breezy deb-src lines is fine | 04:36 |
| dawnfading | the instructions ask to "fakeroot make-jpkg jre-1_5_0_03-linux-i586.bin" | 04:36 |

| dawnfading | but the file that i need (supposed) is the jdk-1_5_0_04-linux-i586.bin | 04:37 |
| shellhack | I need some help my apt-get | 04:37 |
| desrt | humbolt; a couple of people i know have done it and it seemed to go fairly smoothly | 04:37 |
| shellhack | is busted | 04:37 |
| paulproteus | dawnfading: Use the .bin file you have. | 04:37 |
| Kyral | shellhack, in what way? | 04:37 |
| shellhack | someone know about it | 04:37 |
| desrt | humbolt; how 'safe' it is really depends on how good you are with linux | 04:37 |
| desrt | like, there will almost definitely be some small problems... but if you know what you're doing, you can fix them | 04:38 |
| Belutz | i guess i have to make use apt-get more often then synaptic | 04:38 |

| bur[n] er | Hajuu: grub should honestly have no effect on mounting from linux | 04:58 |
| H00chster | paulproteus: Thanks will give that a try, dunno why vanilla doesn't work, but would assume with source made from that all should be fine, will give it a go. Thanks again. | 04:58 |
| IFRFLYR | paulproteus: can you please tell me what you meant about having ipv6 not load with the kernel? Am I accomplishing this by changing /etc/modpribe.d/aliases and restarting? | 04:58 |
| DuS | hi | 04:58 |
| Hajuu | bur[n] er: No.. but I did it manually.. so it is quite possible that I screwed up my windows drive superblock or something | 04:58 |

| Kyral | shellhack, it looks like its trying to resolve it on YOUR machine, which isn't right..... | 05:04 |
| paulproteus | IFRFLYR: Oh, okay. Loadable kernel modules are small pieces of binary code that match a kernel, things like drivers. | 05:04 |
| IFRFLYR | paulproteus: I assume that they are chunks of code which do specific things, like help modprobe run certain interfaces with certain resources? | 05:04 |
| paulproteus | At any moment, you can run lsmod to see which ones are loaded. | 05:04 |
| === omaru [~omaru@200.79.212.89] has joined #ubuntu | ||

| paulproteus | r0d: Search in Synaptic for flash. | 05:04 |
| MIK3MAN | tritium: I actually installed Kbuntu, and I now have problems installing additional software, synaptic is replaced with Knaptic and I cant update the repositories. I need to do some research | 05:05 |
| paulproteus | IFRFLYR: Currently you probably have ipv6 loaded. You probably can't remove it because it's in use. | 05:05 |
| IFRFLYR | paulproteus right, I see that when I lsmod | grep ipv6 | 05:05 |
| paulproteus | If you really want, you can do 'rmmod -f ipv6', but that'll just yank the code out of the kernel with "unknown side-effects". | 05:05 |

| MIK3MAN | tritium: no, I'll head there now :) | 05:05 |
| paulproteus | MartenH: man interfaces has an example, otherwise ask me to paste one from my /etc/network/interfaces in #flood | 05:05 |

| Kyral | could someone help shellhack, I need to go shower | 05:06 |

| === vader1102 [~kevin@Toronto-HSE-ppp3711773.sympatico.ca] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| paulproteus | Erm, you aliased things so modprobe will load nothing when you tell it to load ipv6. | 05:06 |
| IFRFLYR | Ah, I see. | 05:06 |
| MartenH | paulproteus, ok, looking | 05:06 |
| inull | so avoid livecd's all together or drop a release? | 05:06 |
| paulproteus | Now if you want, you can use the lower-level tool 'insmod' to load it - insmod always does exactly what you tell it to, for better or worse. | 05:07 |

| paulproteus | inull: There aren't many good powerpc live CDs. The powerpc install CD is fine, though. | 05:07 |
| IFRFLYR | paulproteus: i see. No I don't trust myself enough yet! | 05:07 |
| paulproteus | IFRFLYR: On boot, things like "hotplug" will modprobe what modules it thinks match what hardware you have. | 05:07 |
| IFRFLYR | So other than that there's no way to politely get it out of there without a full reboot? | 05:07 |
| paulproteus | By default, it'll load ipv6. | 05:07 |
| paulproteus | IFRFLYR: That's right. | 05:07 |
| IFRFLYR | Gotchya | 05:07 |
| inull | paulproteus: lol typical - had the choice of d/ling either and I chose live to test, lol | 05:07 |
| paulproteus | If you're going to reboot anyway, I'd log out, then drop to a text console, then rmmod -f ipv6. | 05:07 |
| paulproteus | Just to watch. | 05:07 |
| IFRFLYR | Thanks so very much for that help, paulproteus | 05:07 |
| IFRFLYR | I will do just that! | 05:08 |

| Harold | desrt, Thank you. | 07:39 |
| desrt | w32codecs is here: ftp://ftp.nerim.net/debian-marillat/pool/main/w/w32codecs/w32codecs_20050412-0.0_i386.deb | 07:39 |
| raven3x7 | Yendor, hmm that turned it into a tar | 07:39 |
| AlexMBas | and to play real video midia? | 07:39 |
| desrt | AlexMBas; http://www.real.com/ | 07:39 |
| AlexMBas | w32codecs also | 07:39 |
| AlexMBas | but does it play inside totem? | 07:40 |
| desrt | AlexMBas; i don't think so :/ | 07:40 |
| Yendor | raven3x7, tar -tvf <your file>.tar -- that should get you a listing of files inside your tarfile. | 07:40 |
| chombee | Yendor - it works! thanks | 07:40 |
| Yendor | chombee, np. :) | 07:40 |
| AlexMBas | desrt: ok, thanks | 07:40 |
| raven3x7 | desrt why not the package from extras? | 07:40 |
| desrt | raven3x7; oh. i didn't know about that. | 07:40 |
| desrt | AlexMBas; what raven said :) | 07:40 |
| Yendor | raven3x7, If that's what you're looking for, then "tar -xvf" it. | 07:40 |
| desrt | AlexMBas; check out backports at http://backports.ubuntuforums.org/ | 07:41 |

| yaaar | i've got a weird one. a friend of mine had ubuntu installed on /dev/hdb with a win2k install on /dev/hda. Then he pulled the windows drive out and put the ubuntu one on master. naturally it wouldn't boot, as grub was previously installed on hda. so i booted a gentoo livecd (it was handy) mounted the partition, edited /boot/grub/menu.lst, changed all the (hd1,0) lines to (hd0,0), all the (hd1) lines to (hd0), and all the /de/hdb's into /dev/hda's. | 10:09 |

| yaaar | enno_: so i popped in a gentoo livecd (it was handy), mounted the ubuntu partition, edited menu.lst, changed all the hd1's to hd0's and /dev/hdb's to /dev/hda's, ran grub, did 'root (hd0,0)' 'setup (hd0)' and 'quit' and rebooted...... | 10:26 |
