[05:03] hi, I went and added the backports repository line to my sources.list and ran an update, and now certain packages aren't found anywhere in my available list, specifically there are no packages for Adobe Acrobat [05:03] QMario, what card? [05:03] I don't want to go back to Windows. :( [05:03] you can't return it for a better supported card? [05:03] Just tonight I put Kubuntu into my Ubuntu box. That's the extent I'll go to dual booting. I used to dual boot. Still had to have anti virus, anti ad, anti everything [05:03] xkuseme, bob2 asked a valid question will windows even boot on the slave drive? That is hardware dependent. if you do move drives around ubuntu will at least nead fstab changed indicating the new partition locations [05:03] flask-: acrobat probably isn't legally redistributable by anyone [05:03] Jemt, sure there should be button combo with Fn lock key [05:03] bob2: ok [05:03] Nomasteryoda, Chaintec Volari V3 [05:04] nomasteryoda: Dosn't work in Linux [05:04] so that has nvidia chip?

[05:04] QMario, also on #suse [05:05] xkuseme, that is doable supposing the motherboard/bios supports booting to another drive besides the first primary [05:05] I tried to use synaptic to install something, it asked for the ubuntu install disk. [05:05] puff: so put it in, or configure synaptic to only use the internet [05:05] Thank you guys. :) I will ask the people at those channels. [05:05] dougsk: that is what i am wondering about [05:06] bob2: Yeah, I put the Cd in, I'm wondering what files I need to copy from the CD, and where I need to put them, to avoid needing it in the future. [05:06] dougsk: If you are trying to recover your boot loader, it should be quite easy.

[05:08] How come with the default theme, and with most others, text on websites is often the same as the forgrund colour? is ther ea way to fix this? === puff checks out RestrictedFormats. [05:08] Jemt, ah yeah, grub-install I think, but that still doesn't work without changing fstab entries to reflect the new partition locations (s|h)d{a,b,c...) [05:09] Jemt, but it's not really relevent to me at this point, I'm not swapping drives about [05:09] dougsk, Okay [05:10] odd question, why does the ubuntu site always redirect to ssl? [05:10] bob2, How come with the default theme, and with most others, text on websites is often the same as the forgrund colour? is ther ea way to fix this?

[05:14] you have to decide what you want to do [05:14] simplest is to kill it before running legacy apps like games [05:14] bob2: What choices do I have ? [05:14] hardest is to get everything to use alsa and dmix [05:15] Oh [05:15] Used alsa back in Mandrake and Gentoo [05:15] Oh well. I can live with killing it once in a while :) [05:15] and you're using alsa on ubuntu, too, of course [05:15] Ok. Could be using OSS (i think it's the name of the new sound server) [05:16] no [05:16] Oh [05:16] OSS is the name of the old set of sound drivers [05:16] so what does the magic eight-ball say for unified sound system (gstreamer?) anyways? [05:16] ALSA has replace it almost entirely [05:16] Oh, IC. Thanks - good to know :) [05:17] everything in gnome seems to be moving towards gstreamer [05:17] I predict someone creating an entirely incompatible "kstreamer" soon [05:17] Hehe :) [05:17] esd - what is that exactly ? === _Icebreaker_ [~icebreake@dsl-084-060-165-231.arcor-ip.net] has joined #ubuntu [05:17] bob2, so where does that leave threaded sounds and esd? [05:17] it's a "sound daemon" [05:17] bob2: KDE is allegedly supporting gstreamer [05:17] Jemt: it's the bane of our existance [05:17] instead of apps talking to the sound card, esd owns it, and apps talk to it [05:18] does gstreamer handle gaim and evolution going beep at the same time [05:18] dougsk: hopefully going away [05:18] bob2, ah cool === jantan21 is now known as amik [05:18] libqt3-mt-dev: Depends: libqt3c102-mt (=3:3.3.3-7ubuntu3) but 3:3.3.4-3 is to be installed [05:18] bob2, Oh, what I would refer to as an interface - i guess :) [05:18] dougsk: it would, since you'd configure gstreamer to use alsa and dmix [05:18] Depends: libxft-dev but it is not going to be installed [05:18] I can't figure this out [05:18] knowledge_: your sources.list is broken [05:18] knowledge_: paste it to /etc/apt/sources.list === dennis__ [~dennis@83.233.20.148] has joined #ubuntu [05:18] bob2, Paste what? [05:18] dougsk: technically gstreamer is a 'glue' [05:18] dougsk: it doesn't do anything per se [05:18] it just facilitates communication between components [05:19] knowledge_: er, your /etc/apt/sources.list to #flood === rfranco [~rfranco@dhcp152-68.cfa.harvard.edu] has joined #ubuntu [05:19] bob2: Still can't figure out how killing 'esd' solved my problem. Does the games communicate directly with the sound card ? [05:19] Wow. That's interesting. I didn't know how that worked [05:19] Jemt: yes [05:19] HrdwrBoB, ah well I thought er maybe not, I was assuming it well hmm, I think I need to read [05:19] Jemt: yes [05:19] Jemt: esd had exclusive use of your soundcard [05:19] Jemt: and most cards don't let two programs do that, so if esd had it first... [05:20] dougsk: think of gstreamer like the codec infrastructure in windows [05:20] Ah, okay. Makes perfect sense. Thanks alot, guys :) [05:20] emu10k1-based cards are the only ones that don't do that under linux, afaik [05:20] HrdwrBoB, thanks [05:20] is there anything wrong with having a short lease time like 10 minutes [05:20] I gather windows has some sort of mixer in the kernel?

[05:41] tha_gamemaster1: linux-686 will see it, too, even without SMP [05:42] i know, smp is dual processors ,but HIMEM is built into that kernel, i don't use 686, i use the k7 kernel [05:42] http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl/834 === tha_gamemaster1 has athlon xp 1800+ === DuS [~DuS@106.Red-81-39-190.pooles.rima-tde.net] has joined #ubuntu [05:42] tha_gamemaster1: The normal -k7 kernel *laso* has HIGHMEM enabled.

[07:32] Gatton, lynucs.org [07:33] hey all [07:33] XP is about equal to 98 in my opinion, and that's only because it can run newer stuff (whereas 98 rocks but is a little obsolete when it comes to the newer stuff.)

[07:34] http://dev.realistanew.com/icon_example.png <--anyone else have an opinion on the icon? [07:34] looking now [07:34] dr_willis: Sounds like that issue that a newer kernel fixed.

You can get it free but it's not the same. [07:56] Well its my real name. But its a bit cheesy with the _ [07:56] yes poningru [07:56] poningru, installation done. now what [07:56] still in english [07:57] vinux, I was able to get Suse Pro 9.3 with my last job. Again I had installation/upgrade issues. It's one of the reasons I mainly use Ubuntu now [07:57] Dr_Melectaus: sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales [07:57] onur: you have to restart [07:57] At some point I will hunker down and try to get Suse 9.3 installed and working. But for now I'm really enjoying Ubuntu [07:57] poningru, ok thx [07:57] onur: you have to [07:57] choose at startup [07:57] note: this is why you should choose your language right on startup :) [07:57] Gatton, really? Installation and upgrade issues? [07:57] turkish [07:57] vinux, But I loved 9.2 [07:57] Gatton, I was using Suse 9.3 [07:57] onur: sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales [07:57] then log out and back in [07:58] Amaranth, instead of reboot ? [07:58] Dr_Melectaus: add the backports mirror and then just install libdvdcss2 using your synaptic [07:58] onur: yeah [07:58] vinux, yea. I had to turn ACPI off to get installation going. Then when it asked for the 2nd cd keyboard and mouse were not working. Again I think it has to do with my KVM maybe [07:58] ok [07:58] oh [07:58] Gatton, well ofcourse Suse runs slower then ubuntu and I like speed :) [07:58] yeah a logout will do [07:58] hehe [07:58] poningru, sorry? [07:58] Gatton, and Suse 9.3 crashed my file system after a trial of XEN [07:58] onur: in the thing that comes up turn off en_US and turn on what you want (make sure you use the UTF-8 version) [07:58] Dr_Melectaus: hold on let me see [07:58] vinux, true.

[02:03] znh: People who tell you otherwise don't understand how computers work. === brettlegree [~brettlegr@HSE-Ottawa-ppp236731.sympatico.ca] has joined #ubuntu [02:04] paulproteus: I disagree, programs from source are always faster, because they are being optimized for the processor === Kokey [~Propietar@201.137.160.196] has joined #ubuntu [02:04] znh: And I disagree - programs optimized for a particular compiler (EXCEPT the really math-heavy ones) tend to be just as fast but have bigger binaries [02:04] znh, you have at least one gentoo box on the shefl i'm guessing? [02:04] :) [02:04] and bigger binaries means more cache misses and more loads from disk. [02:04] znh: Take a computer architecture class. [02:05] paulproteus: I had gentoo yes, but that has nothing to do with this [02:05] znh: Now, *yes*, very math-intensive things like mplayer could benefit. But not disk-bound programs like Apach.e [02:05] I didn't bring up Gentoo, holycow did. [02:05] znh, i'm kidden :) [02:06] flamers, now my question? [02:06] k. go [02:06] paulproteus: dude, apache can be even more intensive as mplayer - if the apache server gets many requests it really does mather if it's compiled from source or not, I have a two webservers at myself - http://www.openhost.nl [02:06] rowanjl: Oh, right, sorry. ;) === Dethread| [~Dethread@p5484DE70.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #ubuntu [02:06] znh: That's false. Memory-intensive: yes. [02:06] oh repo with php5, try backports [02:06] That's why bad optimization settings hurt you. CPU intensive: No. [02:06] holycow, for warty? [02:06] paulproteus: mate, you can say what ever you want, but it really does mather :) [02:06] if its not there chances are it doesn't exist as an ubuntu ready binary ... you might google for debian repost for it [02:07] znh: You can say whatever you want, but I do suggest you take a computer architecture class. === paulproteus unplugs his flame gun [02:07] Sorry, I was a little harsh. [02:07] for warty? i won't ask but i've not heard of it [02:08] meow [02:08] bark [02:08] woof [02:08] holycow: I was using warty for a week or so, never could get my sound working in it.

[02:11] lindsay: type id in a terminal [02:11] as a shortcut like kde ? [02:11] I have a box where xbill is really xkill :/ [02:11] Its actually running RedHat 5.2 :P [02:11] paulproteus, heh, i've not seen that b4 [02:12] paulproteus, is that what the force quit applet does too? [02:12] paulproteus, any keyboard short cuts like in kde ? [02:12] holycow: That's not the force quit applet. [02:12] holycow: This is the force quit applet from 1992. :) [02:12] heh [02:12] :) [02:12] holycow, php5 isnt in bp [02:12] holycow: It's bound to ctrl-alt-esc in KDE, hence onur's question (and familiarity). onur, I don't know. [02:12] onur: Maybe there's a general way to customize keyboard shortcuts in GNOME. [02:12] Mez, yeah then it probably hasn't been packaged === alejandro [~alejandro@alejandro.developer.kde] has joined #ubuntu [02:13] yeah there is but just curious if theres a built in one [02:13] holycow, is there a demand for it/ [02:13] Mez, someone asked for it earlier, so i persume current demmand == 1 [02:13] huh now it works? === Mez shrugs and starts backporing === rowanjl slaps Mez [02:14] hehe [02:14] rowanjl, what was that for ?

[02:15] onur: Enlightened Sound Daemon [02:15] thoreauputic, i know that applet gives sound in Suse [02:15] so if it was named test, then it would be atest [02:15] PrimoTurbo: no a "." [02:16] ohh [02:16] thoreauputic, is there a way to fix it ? [02:16] will the folder then be named .name === Mez starts the build process [02:16] onur: probably Suse is using artsd (if KDE) [02:16] heh yes [02:16] PrimoTurbo: yes === blastmanu [blastmanu@dyn-83-156-201-103.ppp.tiscali.fr] has left #ubuntu ["Leaving"] [02:16] Because I'm trying to hide the incomplete folder for limewire [02:16] LinuxJones, what am i suppose to find there ?

[02:17] and limewire uses "Incomplete" I cannot even rename it to "incomplete" [02:17] will the . mess that up? [02:17] not sure how limewire works, but probably so [02:17] vader1102, ther are enormous number of bugs in Suse, it is heavy strong and a lot slow === doroto [chaor@i3ED6D852.versanet.de] has joined #ubuntu [02:17] vader1102, and asking for help in #ubuntu because? [02:17] -_- [02:17] onur: there probably is, but I don't know it offhand - you could try killing esd before running it [02:17] damn [02:17] PrimoTurbo: linux is case-sensitive so "incomplete" and "Incomplete" are different names [02:17] alright, thnx anyway [02:17] yeah I know [02:18] onur, you were looking for keyboard shortcuts ? === Valandil [~chrys@dsl-084-056-081-179.arcor-ip.net] has joined #Ubuntu [02:18] onur: I know very little about esd and sound, sorry [02:18] thoreauputic, but in that case i cant hear anything === aeolist [~aeolist@ppp158.dialup.ntua.gr] has joined #ubuntu [02:18] LinuxJones, yeah but there are nothing to do with xkill i suppose [02:18] I'm not to worried about not having PHP5, after all, every single php editor for linux sucks [02:18] onur: did you try it? If it doesn't work you can restart esd with esd & [02:19] rowanjl, check out PRADO for php [02:19] But one thing, am I stuck with just Firefox PR1!? [02:19] thoreauputic, i dont know how to do it [02:19] onur: some apps will only make sound without esd [02:19] wtf would you needa _php editor_ for? [02:19] cafuego, editing PHP? [02:19] onur, you can add a Force Quit applet to your Gnome panel [02:19] rowanjl: gvim ! :) [02:19] surely you _know_ the api [02:19] rowanjl, best editor for php is phpeclipse [02:19] vim works fine === rowanjl stabs vi [02:20] die you vile beast! [02:20] ViM [02:20] ;) [02:20] onur: type killall esd in a terminal, to start esd again type esd & [02:20] LinuxJones, how ?

[02:21] onur, right click the panel, click add to panel, scroll down to force quit, then hit add [02:21] rowanjl, it has autocomplete and , function and class folding just like visual stuodio for php [02:21] bloody hell, my cats are BAD === mason_ [~mason@66-90-218-112.dyn.grandenetworks.net] has joined #ubuntu [02:21] onur, never used VS === yonil [~yoni@bzq-218-197-197.red.bezeqint.net] has joined #ubuntu [02:22] I use gedit for the simple reaosn. simple to use [02:22] So it has support for xhtml and css? [02:23] VS is probably the WORST editor I've ever used [02:23] rowanjl, anyway it is a good thing, i tried vim and the others. Obviously they are good but no specialized on php. Phpeclipse runs on eclipse 3.0.x is far best i saw [02:23] rowanjl: vim? yes. [02:23] what's the linux "replacement" to windows's ipconfig ? [02:23] No, eclipse [02:23] eclipse is overall a great IDE [02:23] cafuego, cats are bad in general.... I like big lazy dogs :D [02:23] yonil: ifconfig ? [02:23] LinuxJones, thanx it is done [02:23] yonil: ifconfig [02:23] onur, ;) === rowanjl likes to keep all apps gnome like [02:23] they're killing eachother and ran across my pizza [02:23] heh [02:23] vim isn't gnome like, and its also a pain in the arse === cafuego kicks them [02:24] rowanjl: Nothing is going to be BBEdit. vim is a good second. [02:24] Never used BBEdit [02:24] Mac only right? [02:24] Yep [02:25] bit off the linux topic, but what speed for a p4 would you equate a centrino 1.6 to?

[02:26] used debian since potato for servers and desktop [02:26] I guess, never even fired it up lol [02:26] if its high up there with the devs then go for it [02:26] Ave: It will be released in October. Just be patient. [02:26] I recently put ubuntu into my laptop because I'm sick and tired of TINKERING with my desktops, servers should be enough [02:26] vader1102: Those guys (I think) don't support booting from the Ubuntu CD. [02:26] Here's a sneak preview of the upcoming Gnome 2.12 release scheduled for inclusion with Breezy Badger in October >> http://www.gnome.org/~davyd/gnome-2-12/ !! [02:26] Ave: if you are remotely familiar with the code base go for it [02:26] doesn't gnome release just before october too? [02:26] kemik, tell me about gvim? [02:27] september [02:27] LinuxJones, thx! was just curious about that :) [02:27] nope, but it should boot to floppy then maybe point it to the cd [02:27] breezy mainly interests bc of the new gnome, if its included [02:27] holycow: Tht's the point, I think. [02:27] holycow, :D === asfra [~jan@195.204.137.111] has joined #ubuntu [02:27] vader1102: Well... [02:27] cafuego, i think i'm cluing in on the gameplan here >_> [02:27] LinuxJones: I saw that on slashdot.

[02:28] ok thanks guys I'll stick with hoary until october [02:28] rowanjl: basically Vim with a gui [02:28] kemik, can you make vim act more like a standard text editor? [02:28] vader1102: That would be a great idea if there as a bootable floppy image on the CD. [02:28] ave: what happens in october? [02:28] or maybe I will savemy pennies for a few years and then buy a new notebook and just keep to what I know in a few years [02:28] rowanjl: In what way is vim not a standard text editor? [02:28] asfra, next ubuntu release [02:28] true lol [02:28] rowanjl: how do you mean? it's very keyboard-comman intense, but it's a great editor :) [02:29] I just remember lots of keyboard stuff [02:29] yup [02:29] thoreauputic, killing esd worked!! [02:29] Ok, I'll try it, where can I get it? [02:29] I had a qestion who is the module owner for the keyboard preference?

[02:30] rowanjl: building, cross your fingers [02:30] thoreauputic, what is the disadvantage of killing it [02:30] onur, as a side point, if you are ever running cedega, and a game doesnt have sound, kill esd there too [02:30] onur: you *can* change to dmix and get rid of it [02:30] Mez, cool [02:30] then restart game via cedega === AlexMBas [~AlexMBas@200.103.132.30] has joined #ubuntu [02:31] this may be a stupid question, but how do you switch between workspaces with the keyboard? [02:31] rowanjl, if it builds properly, I'll poke infinity to make the neccesary changes and then get it backported to official [02:31] thoreauputic, and how it is that ? [02:31] onur: some apps won't work without it in the default Ubuntu setup [02:31] lee: Ctrl-Alt-Right arrow [02:31] Or left arrow. [02:31] aaah, thanks! [02:31] cafugo: I have a hard time using vim so I will look at the emacs then [02:31] Ok [02:31] it's not mentioned in the docs, and I haven't used gnome in ages [02:31] or ctrl tab in kde (for lee) [02:32] vader1102: That went to the wrong person. [02:32] kemik, no good, E: Package vim-gnome has no installation candidate [02:32] vader1102: Do you have the ppc install cd yet? [02:32] onur: I'm not supposed to recommend the ubuntuguide, acording to Seveas and a few other dictatorial types here *wink* [02:32] lol [02:32] lee: I think I stumbled across it in my usual new-desktop-environment keyboard-mashing. :) [02:32] Mez: thanks handy to know too, thanks [02:32] no idea haven't used the mac yet, not even outof the box...waiting for a rainy day [02:32] I downloaded a firefox theme, how do I install it in ubuntu? === yonil [~yoni@bzq-218-197-197.red.bezeqint.net] has left #ubuntu ["Leaving"] [02:33] heh [02:33] PrimoTurbo, the same way you do everywhere else?

[02:33] tip goes to LinuxJones for linkage tho [02:33] this letter [02:33] vader1102: Ah ok. Well, first get the install cd, see if it'll boot. if not, you will need a MacOS install CD as well.

You can install w32codecs from the hoary-extras repositories (see: http://backports.ubuntuforums.org).

[02:49] wellso: That's where it lives. Of course it overwrite it. [02:50] i know it overwrites it, it had a tendancy to make it unrecoverable [02:50] is there anyway to install Kubuntu or Ubuntu on a NTFS hard disk without completly reformatting it? [02:50] Raskall, just change the oreder of windows and ubuntu in the menu.lst file :) [02:50] nimra: No. [02:50] Raskall, make sure you just keep a backup copy and a knoppix live cd for rescue purposes [02:51] nimra: Well, you can resize the ntfs partition first. But _make_ _a_ _backup_ first === Dust [~Administr@p549700AA.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has left #ubuntu [] [02:51] nimra, don't install Linux on an ntfs partition [02:51] http://grime.sourceforge.net/ - GUI grub editor [02:51] yeah, NTFS is a bit sloppy on Linux [02:51] how do I resize a NTFS? [02:51] nimra: For what it's worth, all my experiences resizing NTFS have gone fine. [02:51] holycow: _I_ know how to do it, hell, I'm a linux sysadmin. But I need to help my father to do it over the phone. It would be very convenient with a gui-app. [02:51] Raskall: See link [02:51] Raskall: can you walk him through it? I don't think there's a GUI for it, but it would be a good idea methinks [02:51] Raskall, ooos! sorry bro :) didn't read that into the q. i'm sorry i dont know [02:52] Raskall: According to grime.sf.net, gnome-system-tools has a configurator for grub. === marcin [~marcin@dtz187.neoplus.adsl.tpnet.pl] has joined #ubuntu [02:52] paulproteus: aha! thanks [02:52] http://www.gnome.org/projects/gst/screenshots/boot.jpg [02:52] http://grubconf.sourceforge.net/ , too [02:52] These links were all on grime.sf.net [02:52] oh, no kidding [02:52] nice, thx for linkage [02:52] Gnomne 2.12 will include it. [02:52] any help on how to resize a NTFS? [02:53] paulproteus, holycow, paulproteus: getting him to install apps not in apt is way harder than just guiding him through editing menu.lst [02:53] nimra: partition magic === Kokey [~Propietar@201.137.160.196] has left #ubuntu [] [02:53] nimra, the Hoary installer can resize but you should do a defrag/disk scan first [02:53] Raskall, how about sudo gedit? [02:53] Raskall: Can you make him enable ssh and just fix the problem yourself? [02:53] holycow: that will be the way. :) [02:54] thank you :) [02:54] Raskall, or getting him to startup the remote admin tool? ssh in? [02:54] cafuego: :) he is completely incompetent in dsl-router setup. [02:54] *high five* [02:54] haha [02:54] Raskall: Why doesn't he haved a Mac? [02:54] hmm.. maybe I actually set that up a loooong time ago. [02:54] cafuego, thats going to be in 2.12? nice [02:54] what's the command to rename a folder? [02:54] holycow: Yep.. saw it in breezy.

[02:55] i wonder how gstreamer will perform in 2.12, i'm not complaining about current installation but it doesn't have same performance quality as xine [02:56] what's the command to move a directory from one play to another? [02:56] thnx [02:56] holycow: I *am* going to complain about gstreamer. It sucks totally for playing anything. [02:56] place* [02:56] PrimoTurbo: again, 'mv'.

I'm sure 'mv' didn't used to work across filesystems [02:57] Or maybe I'm stuck in 1995 [02:57] okay, imho g2.12 is awesome [02:58] cafuego: The rename() system call doesn't work across filesystems. [02:58] do I have to tweak something to make my apache2 accessible from outside my lan network? [02:58] cafuego: But mv has been more than a wrapper around rename() for ages.... [02:58] paulproteus: I'm _OLD_ [02:58] cafuego: Okay. :) [02:58] flipy: allow outsiders into your lan network? [02:58] LinuxJones, once again, thx! [02:58] and put the apache file as read for outsiders [02:58] poningru: yes, to access my webserver [02:58] then no clue [02:58] paulproteus: Then again, I haven't actually moved dist across filesystems for _years_. ln is my friend.

[07:08] what's the difference between SVCD and DVD (sorry not familar with all that dvd stuff) [07:08] by changing preferred applications for mail reader and web browser under System/Applications, what is actually changed? does that make a universal change for any programs for example that allow you to send items via email?

Fixed it myself :P [07:10] However, you can't get higher quality than you have in the original source material (your AVI in this case). That's why DVD and SVCD probably wouldn't be too different in this case (because you can't gain any quality on the reencode; the best you can do is get about the same quality as in the AVI). === AndieB [~andieb@c83-248-243-152.bredband.comhem.se] has joined #ubuntu [07:10] LokeDK, SVCD will play on most players.

Fedora is working fine, and you just installed ubuntu, right? If this is the case, and you change the ubuntu /etc/passwd UID before the /home stuff for your new user gets too comfortable, you should have your old environment.

[10:41] Tomcat_: did you change the Window Manager since u install ubuntu/ === tucoz [~martin@hornved.ii.uib.no] has joined #ubuntu [10:41] patrickj: Isn't Metacity the default for Gnome? [10:41] ohay: OK. The user rights are encoded by name in /etc/group and /etc/sudoers (and maybe somewhere else - I don't know). If you change the name, you need to change the name in these files, as well as /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow. Remember to set the UID in /etc/passwd to match the UID of your Fedora user. [10:41] pestilence: i just did === bitsko [~ken@dsl.76.41.networkiowa.com] has left #ubuntu ["Leaving"] [10:42] patrickj: No, never. [10:42] Any emacs users around? I find the default font really ugly in ubuntu. How do you change this? [10:42] Tomcat_: yes but im using openbox, but i wanted metacity and natuilus back [10:42] Tomcat_: so the *real* reason i wanted to fix this is because any "Gameday" features off of mlb.com would show up blank. very aggravating when you are trying to follow games :) [10:42] what linux would you recommend for a 486dx? [10:42] skalpel: so forget the ubuntu package. [10:42] I can get metacity back, but I cant seem to get nautilus to work anymore :/ [10:42] Afternoon. My thinkpad seems to have lost track of its wireless somewhere in the process of coming out of hibernation. [10:42] fr500: ubuntu server install === _TomB [~ownthebox@ACD647F9.ipt.aol.com] has joined #ubuntu [10:42] patrickj: Uninstall openbox, try to find the metacity package then reinstall it? [10:43] synd, 16mb ram? [10:43] pestilence: Indeed... :) [10:43] fr500: dont know why you would bother with a 486 anyways [10:43] pestilence: well i set firefox to use an external player, totem, how can i set it back to use the realplayer plugin? [10:43] tucoz: I'm an emacs user, I just tart emacs with a -fot option. [10:43] Er, -font.. [10:43] ARG, anyone exp with tweaking hotplug to automount a USBstick? [10:43] skalpel: firefox preferences...downloads [10:43] puff: ok, So what font do you start with? [10:43] Standard xwindows font argument, though in my case I kept it courier, just enlarged the font size. [10:43] persi1: and do u remember how to change the user_name? (command line style, since I can't login graphically) [10:43] synd, it's a laptop access point :D i'm reusing trash hardware to build a MAN with my friends === sandra18 [~nice@213.186.187.60] has joined #ubuntu [10:44] pers1: ok [10:44] what if i cant remember my password? [10:44] One sec, rebooting that machine now to see if that fixes the wireless (rebooting to fix a problem, sheesh, feels like I'm on windows :-). [10:44] persi1: didn't work with autofs [10:44] ohay: sudo vi /etc/passwd; sudo vi /etc/shadow; sudo vi /etc/group; sudo vi /etc/sudoers [10:44] loorni: you can boot into recovery mode and change it [10:44] kev0r: At least you're developing a nice catalog of things that *don't* work. [10:44] pers1: i do not see any plugins for the file type realplayer uses [10:45] not that i recognize anyway [10:45] vipw [10:45] haha, BIG catalog :) [10:45] Tomcat_: I know how to get metacity back on, its not a problem but I cant seem to get the nautilus desktop to restore :/ [10:45] persi1: no chuser -parameter or something ? [10:45] kev0r: The only things I can think of that you haven't listed are usbmount and hotplug scripts, neither of which seem to be available easily. [10:45] nm, I found the appropriate pages [10:45] Damn, well, rebooting fixed it. [10:45] puff, ok. I try some more. [10:46] patrickj: Did you try 1) to reinstall the Nautilus packages and 2) to reinstall the ubuntu-desktop package? [10:46] ohay: I don't know of anything like that, sorry. === skapple [~jon@adsl-66-142-151-51.dsl.hstntx.swbell.net] has joined #ubuntu [10:46] So I start my emacs with: emacs -font -*-courier-*-r-*-*-20-140-*-*-*-*-*-* & [10:46] emacs -font -*-courier-*-r-*-*-20-140-*-*-*-*-*-* & [10:46] persi1: ok then, sorry for bugging u [10:46] You can select a font using xfontsel [10:46] skalpel: how about something in the File Types section? [10:46] skalpel: did you have to install a totem plugin for firefox? === _TomB [~ownthebox@ACD647F9.ipt.aol.com] has left #ubuntu ["Parted"] [10:47] puff, Ok, thanks. I have pasted a font I like in .emacs. [10:47] it's basically a font-browser, lets you tweak the different bits of the font parameter and see what it looks like. === sandra18 [~nice@213.186.187.60] has joined #ubuntu === La_PaRCa [~parca@cable200-116-215-17.epm.net.co] has joined #ubuntu === ttyS0 [~Device@195.69.188.192] has joined #ubuntu [10:48] Tomcat_: how would I go about that?

[10:51] persi1: just one more thing, I think that maybe the system configured itself with a strange charset, because many characters in the manpages are screwed, do u know how to change/view the default charset configuration? === tucoz [~martin@hornved.ii.uib.no] has left #ubuntu ["Leaving"] === Kesh [~kesh@200.84.137.94] has joined #ubuntu [10:51] hi all [10:51] I have a question [10:51] persi1: any id on how to script the hotplug to automount usb, that readme you showed me isn't really helpfull === skalpel [~skalpel@adsl-66-142-151-51.dsl.hstntx.swbell.net] has joined #ubuntu === Teja [~fanteja@cpe-24-208-172-169.columbus.res.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu [10:52] hi everyone [10:52] persi1: I think that the manpages use UTF-8, which is kinda the default for documentation, right? [10:52] Hi. [10:52] pestilence, and how do i boot into recovery mode and change my password? [10:53] ohay: My apologies, but I don't remember. Maybe dpkg-reconfigure locales? [10:53] I would like to chat just a minute with somebody that had tried linux and xp [10:53] hi, can i get help with the /etc/hosts.conf file? [10:53] I messed it up [10:53] and can't do much in GNOME now [10:53] Teja, help is in #ubuntu [10:53] Kesh: Just ask in here. :) [10:53] Teja, I apologize, I thought I was in #ubntu-devel [10:53] ah :P [10:53] kev0r: No: I was never able to figure out hotplug scripts. I didn't have much luck with google either: perhaps you'll have more? [10:53] Is this a bug or something wrong on my end ... when I have both the etho0and etho1 activated (wired and wireless), I get an error: failure in name resolution and although it shows that I am online,... nothing opens [10:54] ok, my computer came with XP.... is it worth to try ubuntu ?? what advantages should I expect ? [10:54] persi1: oh, and another thing, I looked into my sudoers file and it does not contain my current user, even though I can sudo with it, how is that possible? [10:54] Kesh: It's more of a philosophical thing [10:54] hou5ton: Check "route" and "less /etc/resolv.conf" for your router and DNS servers. [10:55] ohay: Yes, it's probably UTF-8. Also, I probably misremembered how sudo works: try man sudo. === MrNaughty [MrNaughty@d199-126-25-30.abhsia.telus.net] has joined #ubuntu [10:55] haha like i'm gonna have luck :/ [10:55] does that mean that there are no real advantagess [10:55] hou5ton: Sounds to me like your DNS server (resolv.conf) is not reachable. [10:55] Kesh: It really depends on what you want and need. [10:55] Kesh: sure ... there are some [10:55] I need a fast computer...as everybody [10:55] Kesh: Ubuntu gives you a whole lot of absolutely free software in both meanings... [10:56] Kesh: It gives you the freedom to change anything in your system, whatever you want... === tjm [~tjm@S0106000d888ff369.no.shawcable.net] has joined #ubuntu [10:56] does ubuntu maintain their own kernel or do they use the debian one? [10:56] kev0r: Well, the coin can only come up tails so many times... [10:56] Kesh: If you want your laptop to send an email every time you get into your home wireless lan, it's easily possible... that'd be a hell of a task in Windows. [10:56] where can i find the default hosts.conf file? [10:56] god...thanks god it is free...with that kind of speech you couldnt sell a single copy [10:56] or one that works [10:56] mine i s corrupt [10:56] glick, ubuntu uses debian kernels as base, but with a lot of Ubuntu specific patches [10:57] does anybody know any good CD-R/RW burner with GTK interface? :) [10:57] glick: I *think* they have their own kernel... as there's binary drivers in there. [10:57] ttyS0: I like the Nautilus burner... not enough for you? :D [10:57] no one uses vanilla kernels right? [10:57] Tomcat_, doesn't work for me [10:57] Teja, hosts.conf for which application? [10:57] When i try that sudo nano what ever it says "Login incorrect" where is the problem? === Thewarmachine [~thewarmac@68.199.154.195] has joined #ubuntu [10:57] seveas, /etc/hosts.conf [10:58] Kesh: That's because I don't want to sell anything.

[10:58] looks to me like a lot of troubles for nothing...

[10:58] Kesh: If you like to play around with your computer, that's an advantage as well... apart from that I can't really find any. I'm using it for the freedom and the tinkering. :) === WldRbit [~wildrabbi@adsl7-69.simnet.is] has joined #ubuntu [10:58] hou5ton: If you have a bad configuration, it will show it as working but in reality won't work.

Try the livecd, and if you like it, consider installing. If you don't like it, stick with XP. [10:59] ok, thx anyways.... I just wanted to know....Im a systems engineer, but I prefer to use the time in creating stuff using tools already available... [10:59] hou5ton: For example, if my DHCP server would be configured to serve 10.0.0.100 (doesn't exist) as DNS server, the config would be okay... but the DNS wouldn't be found. [10:59] Teja, and remove the 172.* lines :) === ptlo [~senko@83-131-5-235.adsl.net.t-com.hr] has joined #ubuntu [10:59] hey guys, need some help setting up a PCI modem under ubuntu 5.04. The device manager sees a HaM controllerless modem just fine, but when I try autodetecting a modem in network setup, nothing is found. [10:59] any ideas? [11:00] tjm, that's a winmodem, you need to google and do a lot of things to get that working... [11:00] Kesh: persi1 brought up a good point... try the LiveCD. It shows what you will get, without any risk and without using much time. [11:01] yeah, I already scheduled the download for tonite, but I wanted somebody to tell me the good things in a brief comment [11:01] god damnit :| === SiRrUs [~SiRrUs@toronto-HSE-ppp4052834.sympatico.ca] has joined #ubuntu [11:01] Tomcat_: it appears that the wireless is set up the same way as the wired ... DHCP ... not sure what else to look for [11:02] Kesh: To be honest, there are few things that work better than in Windows, and lots that work worse... so I guess from your standpoint there are few advantages. If you like the freedom though, it's great. === komA [~sascha@217-20-127-79.internetserviceteam.com] has joined #ubuntu === Thewarmachine [~thewarmac@68.199.154.195] has left #ubuntu [] [11:02] Kesh: Do you use the POSIX layer for XP, or cygwin?

[11:04] Oh... or "hostname", thanks plopp. [11:04] well....for the amount of applications I have installed, probably not worth to try to start all over under linux....

Because it's the only target platform. :\ [11:15] <|quad|> my breezy xorg isn't working... anyone know if the "no core keyboard" bug has been fixed?
