| f_newton | lilo? | 12:41 |
| mark__ | nox, what command do i need to issue? i dont wanna screw anything up | 12:41 |
| f_newton | lordy probably at mandriva | 12:41 |
| vader1102 | yes, f_newton | 12:41 |
| nox | mark__: there is a thousands of way to do it. i think that this is the best way | 12:41 |
| thoreauputic | Sputn1k: ubuntu uses the grub bootloader | 12:41 |
| nox | mark__: sudo apt-get install cfdisk | 12:41 |
| kemik | balistic2: tried google? or debian.org ? | 12:41 |
| f_newton | vader1102, good to know | 12:41 |
| vader1102 | everything I have seen and read | 12:41 |
| shammy | f_newton: so that means I do not need ndiswrapper? | 12:41 |
| nox | mark__: and then just write cfdisk, its all CLI | 12:42 |
| kemik | balistic2: or #debian ? | 12:42 |
| f_newton | well if you are using a netgear card or similar with intersil prism2 driver no you dont shammy | 12:42 |
| Sputn1k | thoreauputic: i know, but where is lilo fonfig? | 12:42 |
| vader1102 | shammy: go to that site I gave you earlier, and look | 12:42 |
| chrischio | kemik? | 12:42 |
| shammy | vader1102: where can I find madwifi? It's not under net apps or system tools | 12:42 |
| f_newton | not the 2.5 driver now.... | 12:42 |
| nox | MartenH, ok, give me the link to the site, and your cpu type | 12:42 |
| shammy | vader1102: my adapter isn't on that list, no | 12:42 |
| thoreauputic | Sputn1k: the config file for grub is in /boot/grub/ if you want lilo you need to install it and use /etc/lilo.conf if I remember correctly | 12:43 |
| vader1102 | then I would use ndiswrapper | 12:43 |

| InquiringMind | Does anybody know where I can get a proprietary VIA driver? | 01:39 |
| Harold | Anyone: What's your opinion on the best compression utility? One all-around utility that includes zip, tar, and the like? I don't want to have to install too many separate ones. | 01:39 |
| Razor-X | i'll stand by my claim that, on an MP3 server, I wouldn't want journaling, but that's just me ;) | 01:40 |
| searcher` | Razor-X: it really doesn't use any space at all | 01:40 |
| glick | tar and bz2 | 01:40 |
| LinuxJones | K-Rich, search the wiki for smeg download and install it | 01:40 |
| Razor-X | Harold: 7z is nice | 01:40 |
| Harold | jasoncohen: Got madwifi working on my Mac again. | 01:40 |
| searcher` | now the reserved space for root EATS space | 01:40 |
| jasoncohen | Harold, nice, how did you do it? | 01:40 |
| Harold | Razor-X: 7z, huh? Never heard of it. | 01:40 |
| glick | but you need all of the seperate ones cause some people use zip | 01:40 |
| searcher` | it defaults to 5% (which is insane for large drives) | 01:40 |
| FuMo | 7z is worth using | 01:40 |
| glick | some use bz | 01:40 |
| jasoncohen | ...so, no one uses the vlc plugin? i can't get it to work with mozilla or mplayer | 01:40 |

| Harold | jasoncohen: Compiled it right, I guess. | 01:40 |
| glick | some use bz2 and others use rar | 01:40 |
| Harold | Razor-X: Yes, but does 7z include tar and rar, etc? | 01:40 |
| K-Rich | LinuxJones: i have smeg... it doesn't let you edit the Places menu | 01:40 |
| maswan | Razor-X: I disagre, I like it, since doing an e2fsck on a large filesystem is quite annoying in that it takes so long | 01:40 |
| glick | so you may as well have them all, they dont take up too much disk space | 01:40 |
| direwolf | i use 7zip on windows boxes | 01:41 |
| Razor-X | Harold: you computer should have tar included, and 7z can handle rar, if i'm not mistaken | 01:41 |
| _SWAT_ | is there a way of seeing which packages I have installed on my PC? (instead of remembering them all) | 01:41 |
| Harold | Razor-X: I'll install 7z then. | 01:41 |
| Razor-X | _SWAT_: dpkg -l | 01:41 |
| jasoncohen | _SWAT_, you can check in synaptic or dpkg -l | 01:41 |
| searcher` | K-Rich: you can add additional locations to Places by bookmarking a directory in nautilus. It's in the menu | 01:41 |
| K-Rich | _SWAT_: dpkg -l | 01:41 |
| Harold | Anyone else have an opinion on this? | 01:41 |
| LinuxJones | K-Rich, argh, sorry I just assumed it did | 01:41 |
| holycow | jasoncohen, not me i've always liked streams to play in dedicated standalone apps. i am going to hire someone to write an epiphany extension so that i can click on a stream and have it open automatically in the right app | 01:41 |

| MartenH | thoreauputic, Ok, I think I managed to build the driver.. I ran make install instead and it didn't yield any errors and I got a ov51x.ko file in /lib/modules/2.6.10-5-386/kernel/drivers/usb/media am I reading this right? | 01:45 |
| Razor-X | Goodspeed: apt-cache search | 01:45 |

| direwolf | whatever you made it | 01:45 |
| thoreauputic | Agamotto: using the right kernel won't break anything :) | 01:45 |
| f_newton | jaegerMeister, that one is sudo and your user psswd | 01:45 |
| Agamotto | mjr: So, the nvidia setup and all that will stay the same and work properly if you have installed the nvidia drivers? | 01:45 |

| Harold | Razor-X: Yeah, the term "blog" isn't pretty. But again, it's what the technology/technique has come to be called, so I use it, too. | 01:46 |
| Razor-X | Harold: why waste perfectly good words on nothing? | 01:46 |
| Harold | Razor-X: It *is* an ugly-sounding word, though, isn't it? | 01:46 |
| thoreauputic | MartenH: the test is whether you can modprobe it I suppose | 01:46 |

| t0mmy | i want an apple comp to dual boot with ubuntu so i can try out OSX | 02:42 |
| direwolf | cafuego: my n00bness prevents this...how do i do that ? | 02:42 |
| morphiushacker | it may not configure properly though. It's part of the install program. if it can't auto configure, you may have to tell it what to do. | 02:42 |
| andy_ | and after that the card should work | 02:42 |

| Agrajag- | robertj,: yeah i realise this.. but my problem is how to download the required packages somewhere else | 02:57 |
| PurpleMotion | how much ram and what version of kde? | 02:57 |
| reka | hmrocha: well, iirc, you can try and install your modem drivers (which i don't know how to do) or try wvdial (which i do know how to do) | 02:58 |
| Razor-X | PurpleMotion: KDE 3, 40 MB RAM | 02:58 |

| Razor-X | f_newton: in a thin client, it's possibly | 02:59 |
| Agrajag | asdf | 02:59 |

| thoreauputic | bimberi: OK - you twisted my arm heheh | 03:34 |
| nomasteryoda | black13, if you want to search them, you can just go online and use one of those mirrors from sources.list .. or .. sudo apt-cache search packagename | 03:34 |
| nomasteryoda | lol | 03:35 |
| nomasteryoda | cowsay | 03:35 |
| spola | where in ubuntu do you change what icon get's used for what application? (eg .php files use a special icon, i want to do that for other extensions aswell) | 03:35 |
| nomasteryoda | and bouncing cows... good together | 03:35 |
| nomasteryoda | spola, depends on the theme | 03:35 |
| nomasteryoda | that Gnome is using... | 03:35 |
| flugh | skalpel, i'd go to art.gnome.org, download a splashscreen theme, then read the README in it. probably an easier way, but i dont know it offhand | 03:36 |

| nickrud | mohohaha, take a look at http://distrowatch.com/dwres.php?resource=independence, the derivatives od debian are shown there | 05:30 |

| jasoncohen | something_else, the madwifi module is ath_pci. are you sure the problem isn't with your AP? i had an issue with my AP where it would drop routinely unless i restarted the router. I saw this in linux & windows | 05:31 |

| jasoncohen | levander, if you need to find a package based on a file contained in that package you can either search on packages.ubuntu.com or better yet "sudo apt-get install apt-file ; apt-file update" and then "apt-file search filename" | 05:41 |
| redtech_ | i got through an entire installation to hdb2 (im dual booting) then got to install grub and it simply failed. | 05:41 |

| redtech_ | cafuego, yes | 05:42 |
| jasoncohen | and you don't really have to upate it often | 05:42 |

| bob2 | skalpel: again, you're being annoyingly vague | 06:20 |
| jasoncohen | skalpel, in ubuntu- the usual way is to use apt-get or syanaptic (or aptitude) to install the .deb package from ubuntu's servers | 06:20 |
| bob2 | skalpel: if you're trying to install something in particulr, say so | 06:20 |
| arbir | is going down to his basement to check on his server | 06:20 |
| bob2 | skalpel: the general method is "sudo aptitude install blah" | 06:21 |
| jasoncohen | skalpel, for a new user- you'll want to use synaptic which is a graphical program to install/remove/upgrade packages | 06:21 |
| skalpel | bob2: console tools o.2.3 | 06:21 |
| jasoncohen | very simple to use | 06:21 |
| skalpel | jasoncohen: i can use synaptic, but this does not have a package, at least i do not think so | 06:21 |
| nickrud | BTJustice, I use the netspeed package, I think it will give you the data you are looking for | 06:21 |
| skalpel | i am curious about installing programs that are NOT in synaptic | 06:21 |
| jasoncohen | skalpel, what package? | 06:21 |
| bob2 | skalpel: it's priority: important, so you almost certainly already have it | 06:21 |
| jasoncohen | skalpel, you probably just need to enable universe or multiverse | 06:21 |
| bob2 | skalpel: also, do not install critical things like console-tools from source, unless you really do know what you're doing | 06:21 |
| jasoncohen | um, console-tools is in main | 06:22 |

| skalpel | jasoncohen: if i un-install smeg will it work again? | 06:32 |
| jasoncohen | i'll try bugzilla | 06:32 |
| jasoncohen | Amaranth, bugzilla only shows 11 bugs on gnome-app-install - none that i'm looking for | 06:33 |
| jasoncohen | skalpel, no- the problem is the new python-xdg | 06:33 |
| bob2 | levander: no, ranting at developers is just annoying to them, too; filing details bugs is the way to get things fixed and noticed | 06:33 |
| Amaranth | skalpel: and if you have backports enabled you have to get rid of it | 06:33 |

| Amaranth | seeing how this was broken for probably a month before anyone noticed | 06:34 |
| bob2 | mencoder + png output | 06:34 |
| jasoncohen | skalpel, https://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=11871 | 06:34 |
| skalpel | how do i find out which version of the kernal i am using? | 06:34 |
| jasoncohen | skalpel, download and apply the patch | 06:34 |
| jasoncohen | it's easy | 06:34 |
| bob2 | Amaranth: it's broken in hoary? or only broken when the new pyxdg is installed? | 06:34 |
| skalpel | ok | 06:34 |
| bob2 | skalpel: uname -r | 06:34 |
| Amaranth | benplaut: hasn't at all since the last screenshot i showed you | 06:34 |
| Amaranth | bob2: pyxdg | 06:35 |

| === barosl [~barosl@221.163.199.194] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| bob2 | Amaranth: if the latter, I think that just suggests that "people who used those backports don't use g-a-i" | 06:35 |
| nickrud | lol | 06:35 |
| Amaranth | bob2: the overlap between smeg and backports users and g-a-i users is very small | 06:35 |
| Amaranth | yeah, what you said | 06:35 |
| benplaut | Amaranth: well, i really don't care much anymore, considering that .75 is the last version for Hoary... | 06:35 |
| levander | bob2: I filed a bug at launchpad about a week ago. Nobody's responded. | 06:35 |
| jasoncohen | bob2, well, in breezy gnome-app-install will actually show enough applications + info that it might actually be useful | 06:35 |
| === DeFi [~DeFi@ip68-6-40-245.sb.sd.cox.net] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| Amaranth | benplaut: it'll work in hoary, you'll just see things in smeg differently than in the real menus | 06:36 |
| levander | bob2: looking at launchpad, the vast majority of the bugs have no response to them. | 06:36 |
| bob2 | ok, I've never used it, I just get annoyed by baseless assertions :) | 06:36 |
| bob2 | levander: yes, there's very few universe people | 06:36 |
| Amaranth | benplaut: because 0.8 will let you put in separators and reorder things but the menus don't actually support that in hoary | 06:36 |
| jasoncohen | Amaranth, what crap... a search for gnome-app-install doesn't show bug 11871 on package gnome-app-install | 06:36 |
| bob2 | and LP is the friendliest system to reply to bugs with | 06:36 |
| Amaranth | jasoncohen: you didn't define your search terms properly | 06:37 |
| levander | bob2: i've actually been looking at doing it myself, but think that wishful thinking, i've never done hardware level coding. | 06:37 |
| nickrud | levander, give them a chance, bug squashing always comes late | 06:37 |
| jasoncohen | Amaranth, it says "enter a bug # or some search terms" - a package name is a search term | 06:37 |
| jasoncohen | Amaranth, how should i have done it? | 06:37 |
| dbernar1 | ok,. well, I hjust got an email from this email address: nitaigouranga@aol.com. It says: "Call out Gouranga be happy!!!\nGouranga Gouranga Gouranga ....\nThat which brings the highest happiness!!" | 06:37 |

| levander | f_newton: bugzilla is a bitch to administer, I use roundup which is much easier to | 06:43 |
| f_newton | the junk mail filter in the newer version that fedora uses is much better then the one ubuntu uses | 06:43 |

| jay | correct | 06:54 |
| SquareGuy | jay, are you saying that you need to burn an iso image of windows? | 06:55 |
| dbernar1 | ya jay, you trying to download a windows iso, burn it to a cd and install windows? | 06:55 |
| jay | So that I can get out of linux, yes. | 06:55 |
| jay | yes. | 06:55 |
| levander | jay: get out of linux? linux is this bad??? | 06:55 |
| dbernar1 | get the iso then | 06:55 |

| f_newton | ? | 06:55 |

| nickrud | jay, if you'll join #flood, I have a stanza you need to add to /boot/grub/menu.lst. If you have a standard windows install, it'll work | 06:56 |
| levander | jay: lol, that's the whole fun of linux at first. Learning so much about your computer.... | 06:56 |
| f_newton | Ive heard every thing now | 06:56 |
| jay | It is when I don't know the commands and things to install software, files and programs on linux. | 06:56 |
| SquareGuy | jay, well just use a linux cd-burner. i must admit i prefer k3b. its a niced gui so you wont need command line | 06:56 |

| jay | That's exactly what I did. | 06:56 |
| skalpel | does anyone ever thing that one day irc and the linux terminal will be integrated succesfully and safely? | 06:56 |

| nickrud | benplaut, are u sure, I've been using it since day one | 07:00 |
| shammy | i have to install ndiswrapper to get my wifi to work, i just downloaded Linux kernal 2.6.10 for the source, where do i extract the tarball to? /usr/src/linux-2.6.10 ? | 07:00 |
| jay | It says login as root | 07:00 |
| SquareGuy | hmm did i get booted or was my connection flakey? | 07:00 |
| jay | I do not know how to properly use the sudo command. | 07:00 |
| benplaut | nickrud: i thought not, but... if you guys say so... maybe | 07:00 |
| Marble2 | How can I disable that stupid warning when I open a .wmv file by double click? | 07:01 |
| f_newton | jay my business forces me to use ms publisher so I even use that on my linux box | 07:01 |
| nickrud | benplaut, I may have got it out of reflex :) | 07:01 |
| dabaR | it is too simple. Just prepend sudo to the command you eed to run as root. | 07:01 |
| levander | jay: don't install software from all over the internet. Just use apt-get from the command line to download from the ubuntu repositories. | 07:01 |
| f_newton | I dont use windows os at all period for any reason | 07:01 |
| dabaR | then it asks for a password, and you type in yours, and thats it. | 07:01 |
| levander | jay: apt-get downloads and installs the programs with just typing one command | 07:01 |
| nickrud | jay, start by reading the following: | 07:01 |
| nickrud | !rootsudo | 07:01 |
| ubotu | somebody said rootsudo was at http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/RootSudo | 07:01 |
| dabaR | for the next 15 minutes, sudo does not ask for a pasword. | 07:01 |
| jasoncohen | shammy, you don't need kernel source, you want kernel-headers and both can be obtained from synaptic/aptp-get | 07:01 |
| benplaut | can someone here with a vanilla install please check if aptitude is installed by default? | 07:01 |
| xaque | or use synaptic, that's a gui program | 07:01 |
| dabaR | it seems it is not, according to ubotu, it is optional. | 07:02 |

| NoHope | hey, how can I get gmake from the apt-get? | 07:02 |
| nickrud | benplaut, aptitude is depended on by ubuntu-base, so, it's installed by default | 07:02 |

| melio | ok so does it use repositories? | 07:51 |
| levander | mmmmm, melio, how does the united states govt not let linux be free? | 07:51 |
| melio | it's not rpm based right? | 07:51 |

| concept10 | melio, Yes. it uses repos but not rpms | 07:51 |
| melio | so it uses source? | 07:51 |
| levander | xkuseme: i'll look... | 07:51 |

| sproingie | uh, deb doesn't handle deps any more than rpm does | 07:54 |
| jasoncohen | faster, more powerful and easier to use | 07:54 |

| sproingie | auk: stability. you cannot guarantee that the API didn't change between patchlevels. hell, the linux kernel is notorious for it | 07:56 |

| melio | you do realize it's apple marketing that deems anything streaming as a podcast. and only media refers to as that | 07:56 |
| auk | sproingie: is not it mroe work to create a complete new version, integratign security features only? | 07:56 |
| sproingie | auk: by not adding feature releases, you can focus on patching the existing release instead of letting third party developers use the stable system as a playground | 07:56 |
| concept10 | melio, yeah for the CNN crowd or people that are into market buzzwords | 07:56 |
| melio | cnn crowd uses MACS | 07:56 |
| melio | they belive in apple buzz words | 07:56 |
| levander | xkuseme: no idea, i don't think so, only thing i'd be worried about is networking daemons config, and maybe their logging | 07:57 |
| melio | because they're stupid | 07:57 |
| windex | auk, the primary reason is that it makes it easier to split up in-development tasks. you set a goal for the next release, and try to hit that goal. if you try to backport all your changes to the last version, it's more problems than it's worth, imho. | 07:57 |
| sproingie | auk: security patches tend to be released separately for most major apps | 07:57 |

| jasoncohen | the problem with fedora is that their base of packages is quite small - extras and main. many packages must be gotten from unoffiicial and often conflicting sources. mp3 support from livna which conflicts with dag which has openvpn, webmin which conflicts with axel (which is generally horrible) that has nessus and myth etc. | 08:02 |

| sproingie | jasoncohen: oh god yes, i forgot about that mess | 08:02 |
| levander | sproingie: but the way they do things, can't they release fglrx after they make their release? | 08:02 |

| stian | what was the command to show program and cpu usage? | 08:07 |
| concept10 | TheSham, you need build-essential | 08:07 |
| melio | you gotta be cool with the concept that repos are ran by people, and people don't follow standards | 08:07 |
| levander | melio: all I use is official ubuntu repositories here, not even backports. I'd probably do the same if I went to fedora with redhat repositories. | 08:07 |
| sproingie | ghci for example. segfaults on startup | 08:07 |
| f_newton | yeah they are after some grand glorious Im head cheese award or something | 08:07 |
| melio | levander, see that's important.. offical ubuntu means something | 08:07 |
| melio | offical fedora repos don't supply ALL the software | 08:07 |
| jasoncohen | levander, ubuntu has a HUGE advantage over RH | 08:07 |
| jasoncohen | levander, over fedora i mean | 08:07 |
| levander | melio: they don't have official Red Hat repositories for fedora? | 08:07 |

| f_newton | even with the so called right repo melio | 08:09 |
| melio | yep | 08:09 |
| jasoncohen | levander, if you want some uncommon packages, you will face a nightmare on fedora | 08:10 |
| melio | thats why I said "a terrorist could kill linux boxes with control over a repo" | 08:10 |
| levander | melio: You mean you don't know how much software the Red Hat fedora repositories have? What is it that you wouldn't know? | 08:10 |

| levander | melio: The wrong repo can do the same with ubuntu. | 08:10 |
| melio | levander, I'm running fedora | 08:10 |
| f_newton | levander they add packages to the extras repo daily | 08:10 |
| melio | I'v never booted ubuntu | 08:10 |
| melio | I'm about to burn an install cd now | 08:10 |
| crispynix-v6 | melio: that's why all(?) packages are signed these days and apt 0.6.x lets you know if they're not. | 08:10 |
| melio | I'll compare it later :P | 08:10 |
| jasoncohen | levander, for example, if you want openvpn from dag you can't install amarok from extras because the 2 repos don't work together. dag has lots of good stuff but it prevents you from using livna/extras which is more official/more reliable | 08:10 |
| levander | jasoncohen: Think I'm gonna start a list of the applications I use under ubuntu, and start seeing if they have it under fedora in the redhat repositories. Only thing I know of that they don't have that I use is svk. | 08:11 |
| jasoncohen | levander, also, fc4 was released quite a while ago in june and dag and other unofficial repos still don't have packages for fc4 | 08:11 |
| crispynix-v6 | melio: well, all packages from official repos. 3rd-party repo maintainers usually don't bother. | 08:11 |

| f_newton | jasoncohen, yes they do | 08:11 |
| levander | jasoncohen: are dag and extras both official Red Hat repositories for fedora? | 08:12 |
| melio | crispynix-v6, right. same with yum | 08:12 |
| f_newton | no | 08:12 |
| melio | keys don't matter | 08:12 |
| melio | sure you got the right stuff | 08:12 |
| levander | jasoncohen: dag is just a commonly used repository for fedora? | 08:12 |
| melio | but that doesnt mean the repo manager puts the packages together with a standard | 08:12 |
| jasoncohen | levander, let's see- off the top of my head, fedora doesn't have gaim-otr, openvpn, webmin, nessus | 08:12 |
| melio | levander, yes | 08:12 |
| melio | dag weirs | 08:12 |
| jasoncohen | levander, yeah- dag isn't official | 08:12 |
| f_newton | thats the problem there is no standard | 08:12 |
| levander | jasoncohen: don't use any of those | 08:12 |
| sproingie | dag is not an official repo, but dag is really good at packaging | 08:12 |
| melio | same with atrpms | 08:12 |

| melio | but the mirror is on the page at the bottom. too lazy to look there I guess. | 08:21 |

| olivier | the display is fine, I'm not complaining (with the reverse engineered drivers I guess), but I have a hard time compiling some openGL librairies ... so I'd like to use the nvidia ones ... | 09:52 |
| nickrud | taz_, I found that by doing apt-cache depends gallery | 09:52 |
| olivier | well, the installer simply doesn't work, saying it doesn't find the kernel interface, and so proposing to compile it for my kernel, but it fails telling me it doesn't find my kernel sources of something like that | 09:53 |
| SquareGuy | olivier, so what is happening when you try to install them? | 09:53 |
| taz_ | nickrud, yeah..to be honest i checked depends on gallery and found that too.. but i did not know that jpegtran was included in that... hehe.. | 09:53 |
| olivier | I have the kernel sources | 09:53 |

| SquareGuy | olivier, all you need is the headers but if you have the sources you will need to make sure they are setup first. the easiest way is with the headers... trust me | 09:54 |
| olivier | I grabbed the .conf file being used, renamed it to something like .config (or whatever), and I did something ... | 09:54 |
| olivier | I've just installed the headers | 09:54 |

| topyli | selinium: no problem there | 10:42 |
| selinium | topli: cheers! | 10:42 |
| george___ | does it work same? | 10:42 |

| Positron | can someone guide me for doing a partition of my hd before installing win and then ubuntu? | 10:42 |
| knowledge | when people say "don't use ubuntuguide"...do they say it because of the backports used? or some other reason? | 10:42 |
| george___ | lol | 10:43 |
| george___ | sorry | 10:43 |
| lunitik | george___, it accomplishes bascially the same thing though | 10:43 |

| ach | I can't start up gnome session in ubuntu the system crashes. I can onle get into recovery console mode. Can anyone help? | 10:43 |
| george___ | lol | 10:43 |
| lunitik | basically* | 10:43 |
| PurpleMotion | it can be somewhat intensive.. remember it's software.. if you're going with mirroring applications, remember that every byte you write to the system is being written twice, and the engine controlling it is taking cpu cycles | 10:43 |
| george___ | what difference | 10:43 |
| george___ | i just want to do a raid 0 ish thing | 10:43 |
| george___ | lgm will do | 10:43 |

| george___ | ? | 10:44 |
| knowledge | selinium, I see, but the backports that are listed on that site are ok to use? | 10:44 |
| Madpilot | ubotu tell knowledge about ubuntuguide | 10:45 |
| PurpleMotion | heh, install linux first, and leave like 10 gigs for windows.. once in linux, install vmware and give it direct access to the blank space you left, then install win through that :D that way you have no native windows system and you are truly 1337 | 10:45 |
| lunitik | george___, the different raid levels provide safety because you're making duplicates of data... LVM doesn't do this... it just makes the drives seem as one... | 10:45 |
| topyli | knowledge: there's an official backports repository now. only hoary-extras must be fetched from outside archive.ubuntu.com | 10:45 |

| lunitik | george___, I just told you | 10:47 |
| george___ | where | 10:47 |
| PurpleMotion | george___: we just told you as plain as it can be told.. raid glues drives together and provides backups.. lvm only glues them together | 10:47 |

| ach | "The Gnome session manager (process 7042) has crashed due to fatal error (segmentation fault)" does this look familiar to anyone? | 10:48 |
| lunitik | george___, LVM = multiple disks functioning as one ... RAID = duplicates data across 2 or more disks to provide a way to recover from data loss | 10:48 |

| PurpleMotion | questiont hough | 10:50 |
| george___ | purple have fun meaning good or bad? | 10:50 |
| lunitik | PurpleMotion, I've never seen anything refering to that... LVM, you can have disks on many computers act like one though... all your systems can share a central virtual harddrive... | 10:50 |
| rickity | ach, you should check your cd images md5 | 10:50 |
| PurpleMotion | why? who not just mount different ones in different places | 10:50 |

| PurpleMotion | you'll be taking cpu cycles | 10:51 |
| lunitik | PurpleMotion, Red Hat is pushing LVM2 also, so you may want to get your head around it somwhat... everything Red Hat pushes becomes a defacto standard in the Linux world eventually... | 10:52 |
| PurpleMotion | you're better off, performance wise leaving them mounted seperately | 10:52 |
| george___ | ...what? raid0 improved my pc | 10:52 |

| omega_ | Like, I've downloaded and untarred the package, and tried running it in the terminal by going to the directory and using ./install.sh | 12:07 |
| omega_ | It tries to install, I guess, but it keeps getting permission errors | 12:07 |
| omega_ | (I'm very new to all of this, so I'm probably doing it wrong.) | 12:07 |
| Buffy_stufd | sudo? | 12:08 |
| omega_ | When I use sudo, nothing seems to happen. There's no output. | 12:08 |
| zever | omega_, why not use w32codecs and mplayer to use DivX | 12:08 |
| omega_ | I didn't even know that was possible. I just googled for "divx on linux" and tried the first two links which both led to that package. | 12:09 |
| Buffy_stufd | vlc "video lan" is also very nice cross platform. | 12:09 |
| omega_ | So if I just wanted to play a DivX movie in Totem, I could also download the w32 codec? | 12:09 |

| jtgameover | it is quite possibly the most freakin awesome thing for linux ever | 01:18 |
| anacron | jtgameover: right... i might have tryed that | 01:18 |
| omega_ | I did get the occasional BSOD, but it was tracable to bogus programs most of the time. | 01:18 |
| omega_ | I barely ever got a hang. | 01:18 |
| jtgameover | seriously though, if you want to WOW your friends, you gotta go with fvwm | 01:18 |
| anacron | why? | 01:18 |
| mopatop | I was wondering - is it possible to use the "fixed" 6x13 font (like Eterm) in GTK2 apps, such as gnome-terminal? | 01:18 |
| lordmansfeld | is it that good? :) | 01:18 |
| jtgameover | i mean, i was using openbox/fluxbox before, and that was pretty WOWish | 01:19 |
| jtgameover | but fvwm sets the gold bar | 01:19 |
| omega_ | That's still mainly also because a Pentium 60 is sort of the speed that Windows 9x was designed for. | 01:19 |

| njan | (bind on your server, paid service, zonedit.com, etc) | 01:47 |

| Buffy_stufd | ZincX - be careful. dns servers are a hacker magnet. - much better to pay someone else for the headache. | 01:49 |

| ZincX | just for this very pc | 01:50 |
| Buffy_stufd | i would never run bind. - if you make a mistake your ISP may be angry enough to ban you. | 01:50 |
| persia | ZincX: It looks like global registration of the domain belongs to 202.71.103.107 and .108, and that they have assigned sasquach to 202.21.184.194. 107 and 108 need to run bind (or another name server), and the configuration needs to be done there. | 01:50 |

If an ehternet cable, does that feed directly to your ISP, or is there another box along the way? If a USB device, to what is that attached? | 01:56 |

| Carlo768 | Type "make" to build the driver now. "make install" installs the | 03:10 |
| Carlo768 | driver. "modprobe saa7134" should load it. Depending on the card you | 03:10 |

| bigfoot1 | Chinstrap, i have disable everything except for ECalendar. I hit the HotSnyc Button on my PDA's cradle. My PDA says "Synchronizing Date Book" but evolution doesn't show any entries in the calendar view. It's been going on for 2 minutes now. | 07:30 |
| skalpel | can anyone tell me how to pass a shell script to the gnome session startup as a command? | 07:31 |
| Chinstrap | bigfoot1, something is obviously crashing. Debugging problems with gpilotd is always a hassle. You can trying killing gpilotd and running it from a terminal and then syncing so you can watch the messages go by | 07:31 |

| f_newton | just install it and if needed change the permissions | 09:45 |
| reisio | get a book on free software? | 09:45 |
| aias_ | selinium, hostname <name> , and edit /etc/hostname for the next boot, iirc | 09:45 |
