| w-mute | ridejib: Don't think so. Whenever I click on an icon that represents an SMB share, I normally have to enter my username and password for that share in a graphical dialog. I recall that I once put this information in some GNOME/whatever subsystem that keeps the information encrypted by a master passphrase. Because this does not reliably work I'd like to know which component to blame. | 12:28 |

| w-mute | Phil: some programs (especially graphical ones) should show up in the Applications menu. Other (e.g. shell programs) don't. | 12:31 |

| thechitowncubss | ptlo: wanna help me out? | 01:57 |
| witless | kemik: i'm trying to play ogg. is mad for mp3? | 01:57 |
| Dreamer3 | not as annoying as my computer running out of memory all the time, but still really annoying | 01:57 |

| witless | kemik: i can't even import anything into the library | 01:57 |
| ridejib | how do you get mp3 support in beep? | 01:58 |
| kemik | witless: oh, sorry.. thought u had trouble with mp3, i dont have ogg files | 01:58 |
| ptlo | thechitowncubss, for example (warning: i didn't check this, i'm writing from my head): for i in *.OK; do new=`echo $i | sed 's/.OK$//'`; mv "$i" "$new"; done | 01:58 |
| kemik | witless: if you cant import, you probably need some support for .ogg | 01:58 |
| thechitowncubss | ptlo: wow thanks | 01:59 |
| kemik | witless: tried gstreamer0.8-vorbis ? | 01:59 |
| thechitowncubss | i'll try it out | 01:59 |

| LinuxJones | kemik, well from an end users perspective that's not an issue afaict :) | 02:09 |
| Razor-X | no, they don't send a PC with the free CDs XDDD | 02:09 |

| LinuxJones | kemik, what difference is there the end result is the exact same the music stops playing. | 02:10 |
| kemik | witless: i dont think you're crazy | 02:10 |
| ptlo | Razor-X, bash and zsh aren't that much different, especially for the beginner | 02:10 |
| Razor-X | ptlo: but, when it gets down to scripting, the differences are paramount | 02:10 |
| witless | LinuxJones: and what happens when i press play again? | 02:10 |
| Razor-X | obviously, the only difference in zsh is the default prompt | 02:10 |
| LinuxJones | witless, all you have to do is cleick the next song you want to play | 02:10 |
| kemik | LinuxJones: you dont get the point, witless wants a function "STOP" that stops playing the music and rewinds the song to position 0, rythmbox is lacking | 02:11 |
| Razor-X | which is ``machinename%'' | 02:11 |
| witless | LinuxJones: well, that's odd, because i expected it to Stop, therefore pressing play again should start from the beginning. | 02:11 |
| kemik | omg | 02:11 |
| === omg is now known as Laney | ||

| kemik | LinuxJones: that shouldnt be necessary | 02:11 |

| thechitowncubss | thanks for getting me excited about bash ptlo :) | 02:14 |
| ptlo | np, have fun :) | 02:14 |
| windex|aways | the only reason i <3 bash is because i can write bash scripts off the top of my head on the command line, and it ports to every platform ever invented (that i've ever tried, and that includes aix and dgux). | 02:15 |
| === windex|aways is now known as windex | ||
| Razor-X | thechitowncubss: eh! | 02:15 |
| Razor-X | why BASH? | 02:15 |
| desrt | windex; bash is actually a superset of sh | 02:15 |
| desrt | windex; it doesn't run anywhere near everywhere | 02:15 |
| thechitowncubss | Razor-X, Because it runs on all linux boxen | 02:15 |
| Razor-X | ptlo: the documen i'm looking at it doesen't say it explicitly, but I think it implies that BASH came from sh | 02:15 |
| Razor-X | thechitowncubss: as does zsh? | 02:15 |
| windex | desrt: it most certianly does when you have the ability to write the code to bridge the gap, which is how i got it on dgux. | 02:16 |
| thechitowncubss | Razor-X, well, what will help me more in the long run | 02:16 |
| Razor-X | (oh, and for those of you who use the term ``boxen'', originated from the plural of ``emacs'' is ``emacsen'' hah ;) | 02:16 |
| Razor-X | thechitowncubss: that depends on your needs | 02:16 |
| desrt | windex; i mean the shellscripts themselves | 02:16 |
| Razor-X | ZSH is more powerful in the long run | 02:16 |
| desrt | windex; they don't run out of the box on, for example, aix sh | 02:16 |
| thechitowncubss | Razor-X, general Linux admin, possibly expanding into python, other languages | 02:16 |
| windex | desrt: i dont mean the scripts are portable. i mean the shell is portable. you can install bash on aix. works out of the box. | 02:16 |
| Razor-X | and ZSH is back-compatible with ASH(SH) and a lot of BASH | 02:16 |

| thechitowncubs | That was weird, when i logged out and in with the ZSH shell my wireless started going foobar. | 02:31 |
| bob2 | windex: your mta does all the hard work | 02:31 |
| bob2 | you just provide lookup tables | 02:31 |
| windex | bob2: yes, the mta i wrote that uses the same database as the billing system? | 02:31 |
| cafuego | kemik: oh, shush, C is great. | 02:31 |
| bob2 | you wrote an MTA? why? | 02:31 |

| Razor-X | thechitowncubs: hmmm? | 02:32 |
| Razor-X | shouldn't do that | 02:32 |
| thechitowncubs | I know, but its had a history of being screwy. | 02:32 |
| Razor-X | ZSH is your default shell, but as bob2 told me, BASH Scripts will use BASH | 02:32 |
| kemik | cafuego: yeah, it is great for some stuff, but still a pain to code in :p | 02:32 |

| cafuego | windex: There's a reason ubuntu uses postfix ;-) | 02:32 |
| windex | have you used exim? :P | 02:33 |
| thechitowncubs | alright, a reboot solved the wireless problem. | 02:33 |
| bob2 | yes, exim is trivial and tiny | 02:33 |
| cafuego | windex: postfix also plays VERY nicely with various sql systems | 02:33 |
| === Dreamer3 finds postfix pretty useful, and exim more complicated but powerful | ||
| windex | seriously. go install exim on a box with 5,000 mail accounts. watch cpu vanish. | 02:33 |
| bob2 | that souns like a configuration issue | 02:33 |
| thechitowncubs | Razor-X, another question was, with bash as my default shell it showed the directory i was in, i like that, is there a way to do that with ZSH? | 02:33 |
| bob2 | it should never care how many accounts there are | 02:33 |
| Razor-X | thechitowncubs: I was about to tell you about that | 02:33 |
| === Dreamer3 nods with bob2 though thinks it depends on the mail, not the accounts | ||
| Razor-X | of course there is, it was quite annoying at first | 02:34 |

| _SD_Keo | Does hoary come with USB modem support out of the box? =\ | 02:34 |
| kemik | more accounts = more mail ? | 02:34 |
| Will_ | Negative, I am a meat popsicle | 02:34 |
| bob2 | windex: so, it depends on mail flow, not number of accounts, right | 02:34 |
| cafuego | windex: Yes, this is a matter of configuring your MTA properly. | 02:34 |

| w-mute | bob2: I was hoping to see something like this, too. | 02:39 |
| Razor-X | again, remove the end quotes | 02:39 |
| windex | bob2: anyway, the real problem was the servers dealing with mbox files from stupid users who never cleaned out their mailbox. we switched it to a courier format for awhile, but eventually gave up and started storing metadata in sql and messages in individual files. thus, the mta i wrote. | 02:39 |
| Randall64 | aptitude and synaptic seem to stomp on each other a bit | 02:39 |
| Razor-X | but keep the quotes after the =, thechitowncubs | 02:39 |

| bob2 | not a special format | 02:39 |
| thechitowncubs | Razor-X, BINGO! | 02:39 |

| Razor-X | kemik: no, that's a worldwide fudgeover ;), the actual political compass makes a distinction | 02:51 |
| windex | i'd assume it's suposed to start automatically already then :) | 02:51 |
| Razor-X | that's why it has two axes | 02:51 |
| PrimoTurbo | why did bob2 tell me to do "pkill esd" then? | 02:52 |
| PrimoTurbo | to kill esd? | 02:52 |
| windex | ohhhh. | 02:52 |
| windex | he told you to restart it? | 02:52 |
| PrimoTurbo | no | 02:52 |
| PrimoTurbo | he said pkill esd | 02:52 |
| Will_ | Over here (england) it refers to tory (capitalists) and labor (soci....capitalists.) | 02:52 |
| PrimoTurbo | and it fixed my problem | 02:52 |
| PrimoTurbo | mplayer can now run with out freezing | 02:52 |
| kemik | Will_: as it does here, but different parties | 02:52 |
| vinux_ | hello all. Anybody know of a tool to resize my partiton that my ubuntu is on? | 02:52 |
| PrimoTurbo | but do I need to do pkill esd all the time now? | 02:52 |
| windex | mplayer must not support output to esd? | 02:52 |
| Razor-X | Will_: generally, Up is Totalitarion, Down is Anarchist, Left is Liberal, Right is conservative, IMO | 02:52 |
| Razor-X | i'm Up-Left ;) | 02:52 |
| kemik | however, Razor-X tries to use the words as they were meant to be from the beginning | 02:52 |
| Will_ | I'm Chaotic Good | 02:53 |
| PrimoTurbo | what are u guys talking about is there a link | 02:53 |
| kemik | heheeh, u been playing too much RPGs ;) | 02:53 |
| Razor-X | kemik: well, I tend to make things universal, rather than cause these locale rifts? | 02:53 |
| windex | PrimoTurbo: the thing is, your sound card does not support multiple writes at once to its dsp. if ESD is running, mplayer can't write to the same device. | 02:53 |
| Will_ | I role play. sometimes. just for the chicks.. | 02:53 |
| Razor-X | or, does everyone hold their own country in such esteem that they cannot universalize? | 02:53 |
| Razor-X | Will_: XD | 02:53 |
| PrimoTurbo | so I need to do pkill esd when i want to run mplayer? | 02:54 |
| Madpilot | Razor-X: are you talking about http://www.politicalcompass.org/ <-- this? | 02:54 |

| GammaRay | can't mplayer can use esd? | 02:54 |
| Razor-X | Madpilot: yeah, I may have gotten the axes wrong, but yeah | 02:54 |
| windex | PrimoTurbo: check mplayer's prefrences to see if it supports output to ESD. | 02:54 |
| kemik | Razor-X: sure, but i was trying to get a point across that things are not "universal" | 02:54 |
| Razor-X | Madpilot: it's also used in Political study as it is | 02:54 |
| HrdwrBoB | mplayer can use esd | 02:54 |
| HrdwrBoB | however you're beter off NOT using esd | 02:54 |
| Razor-X | kemik: well, it's a Political Science type thing | 02:54 |
| windex | PrimoTurbo: if it does support ESD, change it, save it, and then log out and log back in. mplayer will play nicely then. | 02:54 |
| HrdwrBoB | because it will be massively out of sync | 02:54 |
| sophtpaw | in KDE's control panel all i had to do was add font. Seems harder here in Gnome | 02:54 |
| HrdwrBoB | because ESD is terrible | 02:54 |
| Razor-X | and sciences are generally region independant | 02:54 |
| kemik | Razor-X: ie; what you consider socialist is what alot of europeans would consider extreme capitalism | 02:54 |
| PrimoTurbo | it does | 02:54 |
| windex | HrdwrBoB: esd is still that bad? | 02:54 |

| dougsk | hopeng, yah that's what I assumed. Xrandr (demo at system->preferences->resolution) will go to smaller (numerically) resolutions. By default X uses the largest numerical resoultion and I'm guessing your looking for more real estate instead of less? iuf so that other command should work, assuming a larger resolution is supported on your monitor/card combo | 04:01 |

| icn_ | that amount of money does draw a lot of attention | 04:46 |
| deprave | i wonder if that guy got his router working | 04:46 |
| rob^ | thr1ce, apt-get will install the most up to date package, no matter where it comes from unless you spesify differently in /etc/apt/preferences | 04:46 |
| poningru | Marble2: whois | 04:46 |
| rob_p | Marble2: dig | 04:46 |

| === brnrdrgn feels left out :/ | ||
| linuxpoet | linuxjones that is the problem | 04:46 |
| linuxpoet | I can't boot to another kernel | 04:47 |
| icn_ | distros like slackware survive without that kind of funding | 04:47 |
| icn_ | and they have a huge userbase too | 04:47 |
| linuxpoet | at least not from the menu because they don't show up | 04:47 |
| icn_ | still most likely larger than ubuntu is at right now | 04:47 |
| poningru | icn_: its not all used up | 04:47 |
| linuxpoet | I could probably do it by hand by editing the grub line from the grub shell | 04:47 |
| poningru | icn_: ubuntu has larger user base | 04:47 |
| hondje | slack gets plenty of donations | 04:47 |
| poningru | this is where all the noobs come in | 04:47 |
| hondje | I would be very surprised if ubuntu has a larger base | 04:47 |
| poningru | like me | 04:47 |

| hondje | slack has a huge install base | 04:51 |
| poningru | are extremely popular among the high nerd community | 04:51 |
| CVirus | I mean package upgrades from version to version | 04:51 |
| hondje | Just because noobs are attracted to ubuntu this year doesn't mean that slack is somehow dying | 04:51 |
| thr1ce | CVirus: keep in mind you're using a STABLE release; that means bug fixes only | 04:52 |
| hondje | Saying otherwise is like saying *BSD is dying | 04:52 |

| Fizile | vader1102, for ebooks? does it work out pretty well? | 05:33 |
| Fizile | im just looking for a good alternative to microsoft reader | 05:33 |
| Madpilot | hopeng: do you have all of Ubuntu's repositories enabled? | 05:33 |
| vader1102 | works good, but I use it for more of the word processing | 05:34 |
| Dr_Fate | FF is slow to spawn new windows | 05:34 |
| Razor-X | LaTeX is my word processor ;) | 05:34 |
| Fizile | i'll give it a whirl | 05:34 |
| Fizile | Razor-X, what do you use to read ebooks? | 05:34 |
| Fizile | if anything | 05:34 |
| Sammi_ | Abiword isn't the best thing for editing, though. The text cursor-thingie (dunno the name) has screwy alignment. | 05:34 |
| Nitsu | hi | 05:34 |
| Razor-X | KPDF | 05:35 |
| psychonate | I tend to use OOffice Writer for word proccessing. It doesn't look as nice as abiword, but it works better for me. | 05:35 |

| finn | jasoncohen, mplayer and xine both work with divx and xvid files, so the codecs are installed, but nuvexport complains when i select divx or xvid | 08:36 |
| pinko | redlounge: I wonder if that just means that maximize will not set their dimensions to cover it. | 08:36 |
| Xyc0 | jmet: what packages does it say your missing during ./configure | 08:36 |
| jmet | libxml++/libxml++.h no such file or directory | 08:36 |
| pinko | but that a separate option keeps them from actually covering it | 08:36 |
| nothingsometing | Un-comment the following and create the netlogon directory for Domain Logons (you need to configure Samba to act as a domain controller too.) | 08:36 |
| nothingsometing | what does that mean?????? | 08:36 |

| nothingsometing | i'm scared to touch it | 08:36 |

| thoreauputic | yo2k: by the way I noticed you have backports in your sources.list - probably not a good move - especially on a server | 11:10 |
| holycow | djp, ... say what? | 11:10 |
| Poromies | bob2: so it says its installed and then theres some bitching about those KDE 342 debs not working (dunno about that, seems Kubuntu dont have 64bit versions yet) | 11:10 |
| holycow | low spec pc? | 11:10 |
| djp | holycow: yes | 11:10 |
| zachary | low spec pc=low ram low processor speed | 11:10 |
| bob2 | if by "64bit", you mean "amd64", then yes, kubuntu runs on that | 11:10 |
| holycow | i had debian sarge installed on a p300 with 64 megs of ram | 11:10 |
| Poromies | Kubuntu 3.4.2 that is | 11:10 |
| yo2k | thoreauputic, so any suggest ? | 11:10 |
| bob2 | I'd assume you have some dodgy binary drivers installed | 11:11 |
| holycow | what sorts of instructions could you possibly need to install it any pc of any spec, beyond 'if its old be patient'? | 11:11 |
| djp | holycow, like zachary said... | 11:11 |
| Poromies | yea, i ment amd64 and KDE 3.4.2 that was released like yesterday or so | 11:11 |
| holycow | its the dumbest question i have seen in here yet | 11:11 |
| Poromies | what dodgy binary drivers? | 11:11 |
| holycow | put the cd in and go, jesus | 11:11 |
| thoreauputic | yo2k: I suggest you comment backports out | 11:11 |
| zachary | holycow please do not flame | 11:11 |
| bob2 | djp: if you have less than 32 MB of ram, give up | 11:11 |
| djp | bob2: 32mb on one pc the other has 64mb | 11:12 |
| bob2 | djp: if you have more, do a default install and install blackbox or something later | 11:12 |
| dabaR | yo2k: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ApacheMySQLPHP | 11:12 |
| paulproteus | holycow: Well, maybe he wants someone to tell him to use Xfce4 rather than GNOME or something. | 11:12 |
| holycow | but ... its a pc! | 11:12 |
| yo2k | dabaR, i tri it..., thoreauputic, i tri it too... | 11:12 |
| zachary | paulproteus: any clue where to look in this log file for the information about the resolution | 11:12 |
| dabaR | holycow: holy cow! | 11:12 |
| djp | bob2: sure. there was a really nice guide in the wiki. just wanted to give it a read. thanks for your advice though. always welcomed! :) | 11:12 |
| holycow | how can anyone need instructions to install it on 64 meg ram machine, versus a 1 gig ram system? | 11:13 |
| dabaR | yo2k: dont try, use that page as I said, to set it up, there is nothing else to do than read it and follow. | 11:13 |
| dabaR | holycow: holy cow! | 11:13 |
| yo2k | dabaR, ok, i follow that urls... | 11:13 |
| djp | thanks for the advice holycow ;) | 11:14 |
| holycow | djp, i don't mean to flame, but it doesn't get any simpler than debian/ubuntu ... as bob2 said if you have 32 megs ram you will probably spend most of your time waiting for the system to page out, but it may even tell you that you don't have enough ram | 11:14 |
| zachary | paulproteus: i found this: | 11:14 |
| vladuz976 | bob2: so youdon't know what that VFS is? | 11:15 |
| bob2 | vladuz976: yes, of course I know what the VFS is | 11:15 |
| paulproteus | zachary: If you want to paste the whole log into a pastebin I'll read it. | 11:15 |
| bob2 | I don't know how you managed to get that error, tho | 11:15 |
| dabaR | vladuz976: it means your system thinks that there is ext3, and you have reiserfs | 11:15 |
| yo2k | dabaR, where is the root document for standart in apache ? ( in rh9 == var/www/html) | 11:15 |

| yo2k | thank's guys... | 11:16 |

| poningru | I had a question about nautilus | 12:03 |
| poningru | why is the stripped down version used as the default? | 12:04 |
| Nevado | in what way is it 'stripped down'/ | 12:04 |
| Echelon-H | when's breezy going to come out? | 12:04 |
| poningru | it doesnt have the address bar | 12:04 |

| njs12345 | yeah | 12:04 |
| paulproteus | Echelon-H: Six-month release cycles. | 12:04 |
| poningru | and when you click on a folder | 12:05 |
| njs12345 | you can tell because of the release number | 12:05 |
| njs12345 | 5.10 | 12:05 |
| holycow | poningru, 'spatial nautilus' is considered the 'right way' to implement a file browser, at least in a default state | 12:05 |
| paulproteus | So it'll be April and October until the Earth stands still. | 12:05 |
| Echelon-H | thoreauputic, thanks. And I'll just have to activate the update manager to get it, right? | 12:05 |
| njs12345 | poningru: it's called spatial mode | 12:05 |
| poningru | holycow: how and why is it considered the right way? | 12:05 |
| holycow | it theoretically reflects the basic object oriented browsing and data handling needs of most people in most workloads | 12:05 |
| luzbelito | sorry, i am upgrading firefox to 1.0.6 - wich folder i must select for destination directory ??? | 12:05 |
| Nevado | poningru, in nautilus go to edit -- preferences -- behaviour -- always open in browser windows, see if you prefer it then | 12:05 |
| poningru | yeah i know | 12:05 |
| thoreauputic | Echelon-H: you'll need to change your sources from "hoary" to "breezy" | 12:05 |
| poningru | how to change it | 12:05 |
| holycow | poningru, there were some studies done, and the developers spent a lot of time thinking about it and testing | 12:05 |
| holycow | however | 12:05 |
| holycow | its just the default state | 12:05 |
| Echelon-H | do you when they're gonna have the latest XFCE released for ubuntu? | 12:06 |
| poningru | right I really think that when giving an OS to an enduser | 12:06 |
| HappyFool | luzbelito: does ubuntu not provide the latest firefox? | 12:06 |
| holycow | both spatial and hierarchical file management approachs are not mutually exclusive but complimentary, an dyou have both at yoru disposal at any time | 12:06 |
| luzbelito | HappyFool, no. | 12:06 |
| poningru | the other mode is better | 12:06 |
| HappyFool | luzbelito: i have 1.0.6 installed via apt-get | 12:06 |

| njs12345 | poningru: you might think that | 12:06 |
| luzbelito | HappyFool, i tried to do it, bur seems mozilla package cannot be upgraded (protected or something) | 12:06 |

| poningru | I thought it was windows converts | 12:07 |
| Raptoid | selamlar. | 12:07 |
| holycow | from a 'workflow' perspective, you will be mixing and matching all these tools to your workflow needs, but basically imho hierarchical file system browsing is more complicated an idea in comparison to spatial, so to fulfill the 'keep it simple' paradigm spatial becomes default | 12:07 |
| Nevado | having a quick flick through the file system and having 15 windows open as a result is just ridiculous | 12:07 |
| poningru | yeah exactly what Nevado said | 12:08 |
| paulproteus | Nevado: Congratulations on spelling ridiculous correctly. :) | 12:08 |

| luzbelito | that one ? | 12:09 |
| HiddenWolf | does update-manager work under xfce? | 12:09 |
| HappyFool | luzbelito: ok, just do 'sudo apt-get update' and 'sudo apt-get upgrade' -- that should upgrade mozilla-firefox to 1.0.6 | 12:09 |
| poningru | see it depends on who we are trying to target | 12:09 |
| poningru | if its a windows users | 12:09 |
| poningru | then the default should not be spatial mode | 12:10 |
| Nevado | holycow, i don't know anyone who prefers spatial but really just use whatever works best for you | 12:10 |
| luzbelito | HappyFool, it seems dont upgrade them | 12:10 |
| poningru | if its first time end users | 12:10 |
| njs12345 | HiddenWolf: I would have thought so | 12:10 |
| HappyFool | luzbelito: then something is wrong with your system | 12:10 |
| poningru | then I guess spatial | 12:10 |
| njs12345 | the notification area spec is cross platform, I think | 12:10 |
| HappyFool | luzbelito: do you have a correct /etc/apt/sources.list ? | 12:10 |
| holycow | Nevado, every single user in our company uses their windows file system as a spatial browser | 12:10 |
| holycow | every single one | 12:10 |
| holycow | even the so called power user | 12:10 |
| poningru | luzbelito: take out your backports extra repository | 12:10 |
| luzbelito | HappyFool, i am installing the new ones now via apt-get install | 12:10 |
| holycow | every windows user i have ever tech supported infact uses it as spatial | 12:11 |
| Nevado | holycow, odd, as windows default is not spatial | 12:11 |
| poningru | holycow: thats because they probably dont know how to change it | 12:11 |
| HappyFool | luzbelito: as long as it works, i guess; all i had to do was upgrade | 12:11 |
| holycow | the few that do hieararchical either you don't haveto tech support because they have the skill, or they hopelessly get lost 'in the file system' . i'm always sitting there watching them trying to figure out where they are | 12:11 |
| poningru | how can you get lost | 12:11 |
| njs12345 | i gave some of my windows-using friends the livecd and they didn't seem to have any problem with nautilus.. | 12:11 |
| poningru | the address bar is right there | 12:12 |
| holycow | poningru, no, its because they are average users that would preffer a 'picture book' to 'literature' | 12:12 |
| Nevado | lol | 12:12 |

| Nevado | holycow, you're not really making sense - windows defaults to hierarchical, and you're saying that users who don't even know how to use a back or up button are 'emulating spatial' by themselves despite an obvious total lack of knowledge about computers? right... | 12:20 |
| holycow | so go ahead and try :) | 12:20 |
| holycow | Nevado, it doesn't actually | 12:20 |
| holycow | it simply opens up the folder in the same window | 12:20 |
| holycow | people still treat each individual window as a separate object | 12:21 |

| holycow | there are many separate pages | 01:12 |
| Belutz | poningru: do you know the url? | 01:12 |
| holycow | linuxprinting.org for printers | 01:12 |
| holycow | few pages for wireless cards | 01:12 |
| holycow | and so on | 01:12 |
| poningru | no looking | 01:12 |
| haffe | Hmmm, another question. Can I force apt-get to somehow reinstall every package on the system? | 01:12 |
| poningru | there is this | 01:13 |
| holycow | haffe, i am not sure, i don't think so, but what is the problem that you are trying to solve? | 01:13 |
| poningru | http://www.linuxhardware.org/ | 01:13 |
| poningru | but thats more of a review | 01:13 |
| poningru | than listing | 01:13 |
| Ag-Streak | Linus: What I want to do is repartition my main drive(which is labeled OS drive), so I have a partition for my XP stuff, my XP swap, my Linux Partition, my Linux Swap. | 01:13 |
| Belutz | poningru: ic .. thx | 01:13 |
| Belutz | but that will not solve my problem anyway lol :D | 01:13 |
| haffe | holycow: My xorg binary has disapeared. | 01:14 |
| HappyFool | haffe: maybe using some evil combination of 'dpkg -l' and 'aptitude reinstall', but it's unlikely to be a good idea | 01:14 |
| poningru | Belutz: what exactly are you looking for? | 01:14 |
| Ag-Streak | My question is, would I be able to install Ubuntu on my current system, and not screw up my XP install. Does it have anything like lilo in the installer? Does it even detect other os'? (i've installed redhat before, loooong ago, it was pretty good with the whole dualboot thing) | 01:14 |
| holycow | Ag-Streak, just out of curiosity, have you ever considered getting a removable hard drive tray? they really are cool, and there is little chance of hosing anything. anyway just a thought | 01:14 |
| linus_ | Ag-Streak: and that is the 80gb dirve? | 01:14 |
| holycow | haffe, just reinstall xorg then | 01:14 |
| poningru | Ag-Streak: yes | 01:14 |
| Belutz | poningru: loading the live cd and the cd rom is connected into IDE RAID | 01:14 |
| Ag-Streak | Linus: It is. | 01:14 |
| holycow | sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg | 01:14 |
| poningru | ooh | 01:14 |
| znh | hoo | 01:14 |
| poningru | Belutz: yeah no clue about that | 01:14 |
| poningru | wait yes I do | 01:15 |
| poningru | there was a floppy that lets you boot from any drive you want | 01:15 |
| Ag-Streak | Hrm. Well, i've got a pile of ubuntu cd' | 01:15 |
| poningru | I think they added support for raid | 01:15 |
| poningru | hold on let me go look | 01:15 |
| Ag-Streak | 's on their way. I guess I'll download one of the distros themselves and try a install | 01:15 |
| Belutz | ok | 01:15 |
| Belutz | thx poningru | 01:15 |

| HappyFool | Belutz: i'm not sure | 01:18 |
| znh | Belutz: Yes I agree, it should be announced while downloading packages through apt-get | 01:18 |
| haffe | holycow: I found it. It seems /etc/X11/X points to /usr/bin/X11/xorg but the xorg binary is in /usr/bin/Xorg | 01:18 |
| vladuz976 | anybody know how to change the computer name after install | 01:18 |
| holycow | Belutz, both apt and synaptic will give you a list of whats being updated | 01:18 |
| RolandU | is it possible that ubuntu did not ask me to set up a root-password during install? | 01:19 |
| haffe | vladuz976: sudo gedit /etc/hostname | 01:19 |
| holycow | Belutz, you can also do sudo apt-get dist-upgrade -s to simulate an upgrade | 01:19 |
| HappyFool | Belutz: if you want to force a downgrade, i think you can use 'pinning' | 01:19 |

| === ombr_eYeS is now known as ombr_DcomaT | ||
| holycow | RolandU, not only is it possible, there is no root pass in ubuntu | 01:19 |
| poningru | its basically a floppy image | 01:19 |
| poningru | and you load it onto a floppy | 01:19 |
| holycow | RolandU, there is none, everything in ubuntu that is adminned requires sudo | 01:19 |
| poningru | and when booting from that | 01:20 |
| Belutz | HappyFool: i could force downgrade using synaptic, but it took a lot of time to find every packages that already updated by breezy | 01:20 |
| holycow | meaning you sudo command -options everythign | 01:20 |
| vladuz976 | haffe: that is what i did, but now when i restart, iget "SET_HERE" for computername | 01:20 |
| Ag-Streak | Well, I guess I"m going to sleep. I'll mess with this another day. Thanks for the help everyone | 01:20 |
| poningru | it allows you to choose what other drive to boot from | 01:20 |

| Belutz | HappyFool: ok, thx :) | 01:22 |
| RolandU | are the packages in sarge that ubuntu does not offer? | 01:22 |
| holycow | RolandU, basically the root pass is disabled to prevent noobs from accidentally running as root for obvious reasons | 01:22 |
| holycow | precautionary thing, and it simplifies administration, i think osx does the same thing | 01:22 |
| holycow | RolandU, no, its probably the other way around | 01:23 |
| holycow | hoary is based on unstable, when sarge was in testing | 01:23 |
| holycow | so by definition packages are 'fresher' | 01:23 |

| blk | in a changelog of the xorg package i saw that all XKB-config files were removed. Xorg doesn't start up (from gdm) anymore after this update (i installed xkeyboard-config) and starting Xorg from console gets me a running X with an error message when i close it saying something about xkb-files that couldn't be compiled (by xkbcomp) because they don't exist. | 02:02 |
| malvoj | hi, I have installed ubuntu and I have bad display resolution set. I have console and I don't know how could I change the display resolution eg. 800x600 thx much | 02:02 |
| holycow | blk, xorg doesn't start up from gdm? | 02:03 |
| blk | i also do get some errors about ipv6 (which i don't use and don't have kernel-side-support) - does breezy-X need ipv6? | 02:03 |
| thoreauputic | !resolution | 02:03 |
| ubotu | somebody said resolution was at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto | 02:03 |
| holycow | thats news to me, restarting gdm always restarts xorg here | 02:03 |
| holycow | blk, hoary? | 02:03 |
| blk | holycow, now breezy - should have specified that, sorry | 02:03 |
| blk | s/now/no/ | 02:04 |

| apokryphos | thoreauputic: I'm more familiar with the marriage-group of tales, probably mainly that area; even the composed pieces don't really express any "beauty" though, in the poetry. Franklin's Tale, for example. It's more a case of "characters display gentilesse", and that's that. | 05:44 |

| apokryphos | thoreauputic: TBH, though, I don't like Chaucer much (of what I've read only, of course). He's interesting, but irony is dragged on and flogged to the land of no return far too much for me | 05:44 |

| Kyozabe | I installed Ubuntu on my laptop | 09:18 |
| Kyozabe | Then realized that I gave it a bit too much space on my HDD | 09:18 |
| Kyozabe | But when I tried to resize it in PartitionMagic... Yeah, didn't happen | 09:18 |
| D1 | oh bummer. | 09:18 |
| D1 | I was gonna suggest gparted | 09:18 |
| Razor-X | Kyozabe: try QTParted, but, this is one of those mistakes which you're probably gonna live with | 09:18 |
| D1 | but if partition magic doesn't work... | 09:18 |
| Kyozabe | So I deleted the partition containing Ubuntu | 09:18 |
| hybrid_goth | lol | 09:18 |
| Razor-X | is there a reason everyone suggests gparted? | 09:18 |
| Razor-X | Kyozabe: wow, you like Windows that much? | 09:18 |
| hybrid_goth | prolly gui | 09:18 |
| D1 | its the only tool that exists for tha tkind of thing | 09:18 |
| hybrid_goth | i like parted | 09:18 |
| Razor-X | hybrid_goth: qtparted is a much better gui | 09:19 |
| Kyozabe | And now when I try to boot Windows, it gives me Error 22 in Grub | 09:19 |
| Razor-X | D1: almost everyone says qtparted is better, qtparted is meant to be a PMagic clone | 09:19 |
| LasseL | Kyozabe, get a windows bootdisk "fdisk /mbr" | 09:19 |
| Kyozabe | Yes, Razor. Windows forever. <.< | 09:19 |
| Razor-X | but, nobody reccomends it, because it has the hated letters ``qt'' ;) | 09:19 |
