| reisio | Raf99: y'mean if it doesn't accept it? :p | 12:04 |
| puff | question: on startup there's a very long pause (2-3 minutes) where it's trying to set up the network. Any idea a) what might be causing it, b) where I'd look to diagnose it, c) how to fix it? | 12:04 |
| apokryphos | Raf99: yes. Make it the only one selected in xorg.conf | 12:04 |
| flask- | Raf: yes, in xorg.conf set DefaultDepth in your Screen section | 12:04 |
| Raf99 | will check right now... thanks | 12:05 |
| kemik | mknisely_: ah i c.. | 12:05 |
| flask- | Raf: so for example your 24 depth can be defined for a certain resolution, then force it to that dept with DefaultDepth | 12:05 |
| mknisely_ | puff: Have seen that when it is looking for DHCP on a network that doesn't have a DHCP server. Make sure only NICs that will be connected are set to come up on boot. | 12:05 |

| Jay | it has this problem, local root time is wrong. then it doesnt wakeup | 12:06 |
| Hikaru79 | To check volumes? | 12:06 |
| fizile | the volumes are up | 12:06 |
| puff | pestilence: Does that imply that I'd have to manually enable them after logging in? | 12:07 |

| apokryphos | flask-: use it how? | 12:07 |
| puff | pestilence: Hm... | 12:07 |
| Hikaru79 | fizile, alsamixer is a volume-control program. | 12:07 |
| mknisely_ | Puff: Yeah, know how that is. What I've done on my laptop is just not have any interface come up at boot, then I enable the interface I want after I'm done booting. | 12:07 |

| Hikaru79 | Sound and audio is Ubuntu's weakest point by far, so don't be discouraged if you find this frustrating =/ | 12:08 |

| icewt | Razor-X, well, the mplayer packages in ubuntu are compiled for different processors | 02:06 |
| HrdwrBoB | socomm: "optimising for your machine" isn't really important | 02:06 |
| Razor-X | icewt: but, can they play files larger than 2 GB? | 02:06 |
| cs378 | popey: yeah ok, g++ works, thx man, now i can write c++ n learn hahaha | 02:06 |
| gregg_ | mplayer has run-time cpu detection and will automatically use specific code for critical parts | 02:06 |
| popey | cs378: great! that was a guess :D | 02:06 |
| icewt | Razor-X, dunno, haven't tried | 02:06 |
| gregg_ | so it won't help that much to compile an "optimized" version of it | 02:06 |
| Razor-X | icewt: mine can ;) | 02:07 |
| Razor-X | gregg_: you mean, it uses MMX and SSE versions just by detecting the processor? | 02:07 |
| HrdwrBoB | I compiled my own mplayer - but only because ac3 was busted | 02:07 |
| icewt | Razor-X, send me a >2GB video and i'll try ;) | 02:07 |
| Razor-X | icewt: DVD isos | 02:07 |
| socomm | gregg_: CPU detection will slow down mplayer. | 02:07 |
| gregg_ | Razor-X: yes | 02:07 |
| gregg_ | socomm: yeah, like 1% | 02:07 |
| HrdwrBoB | socomm: oh nos, so slow | 02:07 |

| hmrocha | i copied all files from the essential.....tar.bz2 file to /usr/lib/win32 | 02:18 |
| windex | Code_Dark, ah. the default gnome install, while being gnome, dosen't seem to be as laggy as the old gnome was, so you might want to play with it for awhile before giving up since most of the configuration utilities are really easy to find using it. | 02:18 |

| bigfoot1 | MrRagga, i did usually tar xzvf FILE. is that all i need to do? | 04:00 |
| bimberi | bigfoot1: can i ask what you're installing from tar.gz? If it's available in the ubuntu repositories it's much better to install from there | 04:00 |
| bungopolis | bigfoot1 a tar.gz file is just something like a zip file, it can contain anything. But it is very often used to package source for installation. extract the file as MrRagga mentioned, but you'd then need to enter the directory where it was extracted and read the README or INSTALL file. Usually it will just tell you to run "make" followed by "make install" | 04:01 |

| bungopolis | bigfoot1 but in the debian/ubuntu world we tend to avoid that method of installation and look for deb (debian package files) instead. Always check your repositories with synaptic or "apt-cache search xxx", otherwise check online for a deb to download and install manually. THis way you can manage upgrades and uninstallation in a much easier way. | 04:02 |

| MrRagga | Doonz: what? | 04:13 |
| bimberi | bigfoot1: you need to run ddclient on your "home" computer so that, from anywhere in the world, you can connect to bigfoot1.dyndns.org and it will always go to your PC, regardless of whether your IP address changes | 04:13 |
| kaffeend | I broke my last one after installing this | 04:13 |

| adkinsj | yeah its interesting watching this channel | 04:13 |
| glick | holycow, why? | 04:13 |
| bimberi | bigfoot1: "bigfoot1.dyndns.org" is just an example btw :) | 04:13 |
| icewt | bigfoot1, what ddclient does is that it updates your IP to dyndns, and they "link" the name you chose to your IP address | 04:13 |
| weex | wow 470 and it's not a total mess | 04:13 |
| holysmokes | glick: assuming that the resolution works out then the name and ip should be interchangeable for the most part | 04:13 |
| holycow | glick, what do you mean why? i never addressed you once or answered any of your questions, everyone else is however | 04:14 |

| holycow | glick, i think you want to address holysmokes | 04:14 |
| bigfoot1 | icewt, bimberi, i understand. but dynadns.org/ddclient are helpful only for those with dynamic ip's, right? if mine is static ip, i don't really need it, right? | 04:14 |

| Harold | Code_Dark: I was a KDE user, but now I'm using xfce4. Haven't used Gnome much. | 04:16 |

| Code_Dark | Harold: I used xfce when I had slackware on my laptop | 04:17 |
| === benplaut is gone | ||
| bigfoot1 | i think dsl. | 04:17 |
| Buffy | Ubuntu is great. - tried a dozen+ distros. | 04:17 |

| weex | bigfoot1, connected to a router? | 04:17 |
| Madpilot | kaffeend: the linuxcommand one? yeah, it's the best I've found so far | 04:17 |
| bigfoot1 | weex, no router. (just one pc in my house) | 04:17 |
| weex | bigfoot1, that makes sense ppp0 would do it | 04:17 |
| kaffeend | straight to the point - no BS to wade thru! Great | 04:17 |
| GoldeNLnX | first thing i'm having problems with is installing java web applet | 04:17 |
| bigfoot1 | weex, thanks. | 04:17 |
| Harold | Code_Dark: I began using xfce4 some weeks ago when I installed Ubuntu. Only had 64MB of RAM at the time, so it was suggested I try using it. | 04:17 |

| Gatton | If nothing else this room is a great source for links ;) | 04:18 |
| icewt | bigfoot1, it doesn't really matter whether it's static or not, if you just get ddclient going. but there's also http://www.dyndns.com/services/dns/statdns/ . and if i remember correct, you can set the IP yourself at the DynDNS website even when using dyndns | 04:18 |
| weex | how many people out there have only installed linux on shitty boxes and are finally seeing that with enough ram and processor, it's much cooler? | 04:18 |
| GoldeNLnX | i've attempted to use synaptic to install java but no success thus far | 04:18 |
| kaffeend | Code_Dark You can't get more lightweight than me! :)) | 04:18 |
| Harold | Code_Dark: Now that I have 256MB of RAM, I don't know that I want to go to Gnome. I used Audacity alot, and doesn't Gnome eat alot of RAM? I'd rather save it for Audacity. | 04:18 |
| holycow | dyndns also has a whole range of other domains available for us as well | 04:18 |
| weex | this is the first box i actually want to use...maybe the distro helps too | 04:18 |
| spanglesontoast | where is GLIBC_2.3.4 | 04:18 |

| Buffy | weex - UT2K4 plays much better on my 1.8ghz 384 ram than my 2.9ghz 760 ram (fewer processes running in linux than windows.) | 04:19 |
| Code_Dark | Harold: I'm honestly not sure; the only time I've really used it is with the ubuntu livecd 5 minutes ago. I know that I have ~128mb ram, and it's running pretty smoothly for me (and that's booting from cd, too) | 04:19 |
| spanglesontoast | where is GLIBC_2.3.4? | 04:19 |
| nickrud | just an 800 piii, better than the 466 I've used | 04:19 |
| bigfoot1 | okay. so i have these things installed/running: preferences-->remote desktop (NO check mark on "get your confirmation"); ssh; ddclient. i guess i'm all set up for now, correct? IS there anything i'm missing? | 04:19 |
| kaffeend | GoldeNLnX what about your browser? If you're blocking Java maybe that's why? I'm a n00b tho | 04:19 |
| weex | Buffy, playing ut in linux...what a trip...very cool | 04:20 |
| Harold | Okay, gotta get back to installing the Windows patches on my other system. Aargh! | 04:20 |

| scott | anyone know, is there a way to launch documents in mc but keep using it? enter ties it up while the document is open | 04:21 |
| Harold | Code_Dark: I'll probably try Gnome once I have a larger HD. I have a 2GB HD that keeps pretty full, and I don't have Gnome installed right now. (Just ubuntu-base but not ubuntu-desktop) | 04:21 |
| Madpilot | !tell GoldeNLnX about java | 04:21 |
| bigfoot1 | icewt, yes, i think it's more than just "good" but necessary. so how do i check if connecting to my ssh server from the outside is set up/on? | 04:21 |
| Gatton | AMD Athlon XP 2400 (2.0 GHz), 1GB RAM | 04:21 |
| Code_Dark | Harold: ah, right. | 04:21 |
| Code_Dark | good idea | 04:21 |
| Buffy | weex - UT2K4 and several others include a native linux binary and are a one click install. - "Loki" installers are available for most popular games. - just as easy to install. | 04:21 |
| GoldeNLnX | Madpilot, thx man | 04:21 |

| Gatton | oops. hope i didn't offend him ;) | 04:23 |
| kaffeend | lmao | 04:23 |
| weex | goldfish, gatton wants free access | 04:23 |
| Madpilot | ;) | 04:23 |
| Buffy | doom3 yes - simple - but the steam content protection system requires emulation due to it's frequent updates. "Cedega" by transgaming. | 04:23 |
| Gatton | bwahahaha | 04:23 |
| Harold | Code_Dark: Right at this moment I have about 425MB free, and most of that will soon be filled with the audio files I'll be editing. Then I'll remove them again, and begin my next editing project. Don't really want to fill that space with Gnome. | 04:23 |
| Code_Dark | I see your point. I'd wait until you have more space. | 04:23 |

| airmikey | anyone running pekwm wm ? | 04:24 |
| kaffeend | Buffy is there a way to just download a Cedega file or something without having to write it all myself? But not have to buy? I got no problem with the cost, but no credit card and no command line skills at all | 04:25 |
| Code_Dark | Harold: I'm definitely no Gnome expert, but from my experience it a.) looks really nice and b.) has a lot of useful tools easily accessed (not that xfce doesn't), especially, for me, wireless tools. | 04:25 |

| Code_Dark | that's what I'd say. but, again, I'm really no expert in Gnome. | 04:28 |

| HrdwrBoB | Buffy: the hacker problem is primarily one of users who do not care | 04:39 |
| Buffy | kaffeend - erm (beginning to look a little nervous) - loki installers don't need cedega | 04:39 |
| Gatton | Haven't been able to grok anime. The big eyes and all the jumping weird me out ;) | 04:39 |
| HrdwrBoB | Buffy:some do | 04:39 |
| kaffeend | if your are using cedega 4.1 or newer you do not need to | 04:39 |
| kaffeend | change the follwing entry in your config file | 04:39 |

| SquareGuy | Alright this problem has always existed on my laptop and it never bothered me untill i started using Ubuntu. With the GNOME sound server on (i like the startup and shutdown sounds) if i goto play doom3 i get no audio. If i shut it down first I do get audio. I have a Dell 8600 laptop with ICH4 AC97 audio. I have .asoundrc configured to play multiple streams - ie i can listen to a video/mp3 while also haveing sound in frozen- | 05:28 |

| Dr_Willis | F0ckF3ar22, the ubuntu wiki has some alternative install docs i saw just the other day | 06:55 |

| Dr_Willis | for example for an embeded device - you may want to look into the qt stuff. ect... | 06:57 |

| nekohayo | what, you mean batteries? | 06:58 |
| transgress | Dr_Willis: the point is... i could just as easily program embedded qt stuff while sitting in gnome as i could in kde... or xfce or fluxbox... | 06:59 |
| Dr_Willis | I think it has a full X on it. (well as full as an embdede device can have) | 06:59 |

| nickrud | glick, then switching to a 686 will lose you nothing, and gain you a bit, besides the himem stuff | 07:30 |

| jasoncohen | glick, i didn't need to make it executable. i was just able to double click the autopackage and run. the first thing it does is grab the autopackage installer for autopackage itself and then it installs your app- it's all gui and is easy to use | 08:18 |

| jasoncohen | glick, in almost every case, it's better to use the ubuntu package. only use an autopackage or source if you need a newer version | 08:23 |

| dr_willis | gpd, hmm same xorg.conf - changeing nvidia to nv works.. odd.. | 08:23 |
| jasoncohen | glick, autopackage probably isn't set up to work with sudo so you need a root account for it to work | 08:23 |
| jasoncohen | glick, "sudo passwd root" | 08:23 |
| jasoncohen | glick, not recommended though | 08:23 |

| Burgundavia | dabaR, happypenguin.org is a great source for linux games | 08:31 |

| dr_willis | lui, you do enable the font smothing in windows dont ya? | 08:34 |
| jasoncohen | yeah- and that way you don't have repetition of libraries in multiple locations and things just work better. Debian/Ubuntu is known for easy distribution upgrades (well debian was until sarge, heh). it's never been that smooth on other distros. | 08:34 |

| Burgundavia | jasoncohen, once you add in autopackage, can you imagine the hell? | 08:34 |
| calamari | lui: interesting.. I think fonts are a weak point in Linux.. because the hinting is crippled | 08:34 |
| jasoncohen | Amaranth, well, the stable base is of course only on that distribution/release | 08:34 |
| dr_willis | i think the fonts under OS-X seem to look better to me then windows or Linux. | 08:35 |
| Magde | lui: the smoothness-difference and so on is only propaganda and imagination. turn on font smothing | 08:35 |
| Amaranth | jasoncohen: generally if you build against GNOME 2.2, GTK+ 2.4, glibc 2.2, and statically link everything else you need your stuff will run everywhere without any extra dependencies | 08:35 |
| dr_willis | or course not too long ago fonts under linux (X) were TOTALLY nasty... | 08:35 |
| jasoncohen | Burgundavia, yes- which is why i think it's not the way to go | 08:35 |

| ajmitch | Amaranth: static linking helps, but at a price | 08:35 |
| lui | gpd: yes man, of course but it doesn't compare with linux, the windows cleartype can't do it so good | 08:35 |

| Amaranth | I can see autopackage being useful with software like I described. | 08:36 |
| calamari | I like the hard edged fonts with hinting.. easiest on my eyes | 08:36 |
| gpd | lui: glad you are pleased :) | 08:36 |
| dr_willis | I like the good old days of C64's and their nice huge letters | 08:36 |
| Amaranth | But if it needs anything it doesn't provide beyond that baseline you get into trouble. | 08:36 |
| gpd | dr_willis: ya, i hear ya... my first cpu was C64... | 08:36 |
| Amaranth | btw, has anyone seen the new fonts that come with vista? | 08:36 |
| glick | heh netpanzer seems cool | 08:36 |
| ajmitch | Amaranth: I think we'd see issues anyway :) | 08:36 |
| Amaranth | they look _REALLY_ nice, but freetype doesn't handle them so well | 08:37 |
| glick | how is bzflag? | 08:37 |
| Daemonic | I'm having a problem with my linksys befw11s4 router/switch... I forgot the password and have tried holding the reset button for 30+ seconds to reset it to "admin" but it still wont take the password. has anyoen had this problem or have any ideas? | 08:37 |
| jasoncohen | Amaranth, the sole purpose of autopackage is to allow one package to be installed on any distro- but because it has to be able to do that it can't satisfy dependencies based on packages which is the clearner way to go. I only asked about autopackage because some users want newer versions of a few packages like firefox, gaim etc. and autopackage may not be that bad if the packages are high quality and they are few in # | 08:37 |
| dr_willis | gpd, i still have several :P was playing Barbarian - on the Vice emulator today even | 08:37 |
| calamari | I had to make my own Console font.. I guess Redhat isn't sharing theirs hehe | 08:37 |

| jasoncohen | Amaranth, obviously using deb packages through synaptic/apt-get/aptitude is the better way to go for 99% of your packages | 08:37 |
| gpd | dr_willis: do you havea joystick hooked up? | 08:37 |
| dr_willis | gpd, and i can still make it to like the 10th guy and lop his head off. | 08:37 |
| gpd | dr_willis: digital joystick? | 08:37 |
| Amaranth | jasoncohen: 99.999999% with backports | 08:38 |
| milksteak | hmmm | 08:38 |
| dr_willis | gpd, i got a HanHo HotrodSE :P | 08:38 |
| lui | well, jejeje, for me everything look better in linux. Like 10,000 times better | 08:38 |
| jasoncohen | Amaranth, autopackage has the advantage for develoeprs of not requring multiple builds for each distro | 08:38 |
| starseed | whats a sure fire way to mount a partition if I'm not sure what fs it uses | 08:38 |
| Iceman-AMD64 | Anyone know if there is a actual preformance increase in moving from pc 2700 to pc3200 ram ... on a 64 bit system | 08:38 |
| starseed | -t auto ? | 08:38 |
| gpd | dr_willis: very nice... | 08:38 |
| Amaranth | jasoncohen: We'll never be able to satify the ones that want Foo 1.234.53.6 which just came out today with one new feature, but we cover mostly everyone with what we have now. | 08:38 |
| dr_willis | Iceman-AMD64, in benchmarks perhaps -- but not that noticeable Id think | 08:38 |
| Amaranth | jasoncohen: Developers make shitty packagers. | 08:38 |
| gpd | dr_willis: is that running under ubuntu? | 08:39 |
| jasoncohen | Amaranth, heh, autopackage is better for impatient people that don't want to wait for backports to build the package as wlel | 08:39 |
| Amaranth | jasoncohen: And most of them don't want to try to be packagers. | 08:39 |
| jasoncohen | why's that? | 08:39 |
| Amaranth | jasoncohen: it's a different kind of work | 08:39 |
| Iceman-AMD64 | dr_willis only running 513 meg currentl ... it is bottelnecking the system i know that ... | 08:39 |
| Amaranth | jasoncohen: and they just want to code stuff | 08:39 |
| dr_willis | gpd, i got emulators on all muy machines and OS's :P vice works very well under linux.. winvice is a Little better in some ways | 08:39 |

| jasoncohen | but then developers get pissed off when users complain about a problem that's fixed in a new release but they're using in old version packaged by their distro | 08:39 |

| Amaranth | Iceman-AMD64: Your bottleneck is your HD. | 08:40 |
| Iceman-AMD64 | dr_willis i either add 512 more or add a 1 gig stick of pc 3200 ? | 08:40 |
| Amaranth | niran: soyuz will be worse | 08:40 |
| calamari | Eclipse is nice with packaging.. just export to a jar.. done in no time :) | 08:40 |

| f_newton | so dr_willis what os are you running these days? | 08:40 |
| ajmitch | Amaranth: why do you think that? | 08:40 |
| jasoncohen | Amaranth, what do you think of the way fedora does things- uses new upstream packages for some software and backports security fixes for the more important stuff | 08:40 |
| f_newton | mandriva? bsd? | 08:40 |
| dr_willis | f_newton, so far xp and ubuntu, + emulated C64 and Amiga | 08:40 |
| ajmitch | niran: I don't think you can overdose some people | 08:41 |
| gpd | dr_willis: your levels of nostalgia amaze me | 08:41 |
| dr_willis | :P and various snes and mame emulators | 08:41 |
| f_newton | lol c64 | 08:41 |
| jasoncohen | actually- didn't fedora upgrade the kernel in fc3? | 08:41 |
| dr_willis | gpd, lol.. :P | 08:41 |
| f_newton | you sound like my brothyer | 08:41 |
| Amaranth | ajmitch: automagic merging of two baz branches built and packaged on demand? | 08:41 |
| ajmitch | jasoncohen: ubuntu has started doing that, for some packages | 08:41 |
| Amaranth | ajmitch: how can that not break things? | 08:41 |
| f_newton | brother | 08:41 |
| dr_willis | i even tracked down the GEOS disks for the C64 emualators | 08:41 |

| gpd | dr_willis: my Amiga 500 still sits in a cupboard at my parents house | 08:41 |
| jasoncohen | ajmitch, it's the one and only exception and the reason for it was the sheer difficulty of backporting security fixes on mozilla products | 08:41 |
| Iceman-AMD64 | wouldn;t the added ram help open the bottleneck ... as i said i get a complete system freeze | 08:41 |
| f_newton | well i dumped fc4 when it went screwy on me and all I could get for help was it works for me | 08:41 |
| ajmitch | Amaranth: it just depends on what the baz branches are | 08:42 |

| Burgundavia | m0ns00n, what is your issue? | 08:57 |
| sataere | jasoncohen, No MAC filtering, I don't think my AP even supports ACL filtering. | 08:57 |
| GreenDot | so the newworld partition HAS to be at the begining of the first disk? | 08:57 |
| f_newton | starseed the codecs are for the vidplayers not the os | 08:57 |
| niran | jasoncohen, http://niran.org/code/soc | 08:57 |
| m0ns00n | Wondering if there's any news of being able to downgrade to the 6111 NVidia drivers without having all hell break loose | 08:57 |
| m0ns00n | :-D | 08:57 |
| starseed | f_newton, dude | 08:57 |
| niran | jasoncohen, i have one more feature that i need to add, then it's done | 08:57 |
| jasoncohen | sataere, MAC filtering = ACL (Access Control List) | 08:57 |
| m0ns00n | I see alot of people are requesting old nvidia drivers in the forums as well | 08:58 |
| Burgundavia | m0ns00n, that is more a question for here, not the developers | 08:58 |
| f_newton | so starseed what are you asking? | 08:58 |
| m0ns00n | I have GeForce 4 MX | 08:58 |
| dabaR | GreenDot: yes, I believe so. | 08:58 |
| sataere | jasoncohen, Ah. Then no, absolutely no filtering. | 08:58 |
| GreenDot | ok | 08:58 |
| m0ns00n | Burgundavia: Oh, the package maintainers then | 08:58 |
| starseed | f_newton, nothing of you .. sorry you feel the need to be a smart ass | 08:58 |
| sataere | jasoncohen, I have triple checked. | 08:58 |
| dabaR | GreenDot: test to make sure...not positive. Also, ask nalioth, he usually nknows this styuff. | 08:58 |
| GreenDot | i'll deffinantly try what you suggest though, and thanks for the advice | 08:58 |
| m0ns00n | Burgundavia: I can't "apt-get upgrade" anymore as ubuntu wants to upgrade my 0.6111 hacked together invidia package | 08:58 |
| f_newton | lol well goodluck at finding what you want cuz there are no codecs for ubuntu | 08:59 |

| f_newton | but there are for xine, mplayer etc noarch | 08:59 |
| m0ns00n | so I need to apt-get install all the outdated packages by hand | 08:59 |
| Burgundavia | m0ns00n, can you reproduce with supported warty to supported hoary? | 08:59 |
| jasoncohen | sataere, do you have SSID broadcast enabled or disabled? | 08:59 |
| sataere | jasoncohen, enabled | 08:59 |
| starseed | f_newton, you're still hung up on terminology .. get a life | 08:59 |
| jasoncohen | sataere, disable WEP and try again- also SSID's are case sensitive...this is just to test | 08:59 |
| m0ns00n | Burgundavia: I installed from Warty and upgraded to hoary, therefore I was able to keep the 0.6111 drivers | 08:59 |
| === Thunder00 [~Thunder00@62.215.128.10] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| f_newton | lol whatever you think... | 08:59 |

| Burgundavia | benplaut, wiki markup is much easier than HTML | 09:08 |
| starseed | and f_newton the codecs are install as libs on the system , which different apps can access .. mplayer uses the same libs as many other players to actaully play the vid files | 09:08 |
| m0ns00n | Burgundavia: Lesson for people who put people off ubuntuguide - first a user has to feel that linux gives him/her something, then they'll learn - but if they only meet a facist system where they must learn this and that, they will just go away | 09:08 |

| f_newton | as far as installing goes ... it does and it isnt much trouble ... if the os is built right you only have to install each version once, unlike fedora 4 which goes south every couple of weeks or next update set whichever occurrs first | 10:46 |
| Madpilot | brent: like, over 40? j/k | 10:46 |
| Burgundavia | jasoncohen, already far more stable | 10:46 |
| brent | really? hmm ive read that mepis is easy and also knoppix and mandriva are | 10:46 |
| jasoncohen | Burgundavia, except X is still broken, heh | 10:47 |
| Burgundavia | jasoncohen, for some, much less so | 10:47 |
| f_newton | mepis was easy to install but I found it glitchy as heck | 10:47 |
| resiak | Burgundavia: There is? Based on d-i? | 10:47 |
| f_newton | mandriva has always been a rather simple installation | 10:47 |
| f_newton | mdk even | 10:47 |
| Burgundavia | resiak, the server install will still be d-i | 10:47 |
| PurpleMotion | ill say this | 10:47 |
| Burgundavia | resiak, the new installer will unify the live and install cds | 10:48 |
| resiak | Burgundavia: ...and they're not implementing the desktop one as a d-i frontend? | 10:48 |
| Burgundavia | no | 10:48 |
| PurpleMotion | mandriva has come a world away from where it started (mdk) | 10:48 |
| brent | i actually used the mandriva disk one to make my partitions becasue the partition app that comes on mandriva is really awsome. it has a simple little slider to configure your partition size. its really cool idf anything just for that. then i installed kubuntu, lol | 10:48 |
| f_newton | really? | 10:48 |
| jasoncohen | f_newton, mandriva is nice because you can install the commercial stuff and almost all multimedia codecs/programs from their official repos | 10:48 |
| f_newton | its gotten that much better? | 10:48 |
| Burgundavia | start the live cd and then copy over the data from that, once the desktop is all setup | 10:48 |
| Burgundavia | completely graphical | 10:48 |
| PurpleMotion | Burgundavia: there an eta ont he new installer? | 10:48 |
| jasoncohen | f_newton, but deban/ubuntu obviously has a much larger package base | 10:48 |
| brent | mandriva is nice, but bloated, anmd i hate the little star | 10:49 |
| f_newton | at this point and from my limited experience I'd say ubuntu here is the winner in the distro run off | 10:49 |
| Burgundavia | PurpleMotion, feature freeze is next week, so pretty soon now | 10:49 |
| resiak | Burgundavia: That's fairly insane, but oh well. | 10:49 |
| Burgundavia | resiak, why? | 10:49 |
| jasoncohen | brent, heh, mandriva hires the worst artists...did you see the art in 2005 LE? | 10:49 |
| f_newton | and debian based w/ gnome is the reason | 10:49 |
| jasoncohen | it was putrid | 10:49 |
| PurpleMotion | Burgundavia: sounds like it's gonna be on breezy | 10:49 |
| brent | but it is easy, and imho, maybe one of the most marketable for the mainstream | 10:49 |
| Burgundavia | PurpleMotion, it will be | 10:49 |
| PurpleMotion | or maybe the one after | 10:49 |
| PurpleMotion | right on | 10:49 |
| PurpleMotion | good to hear it | 10:49 |
| jasoncohen | brent, true | 10:49 |
| brent | when is breezy due out? | 10:50 |
| resiak | Burgundavia: Because d-i was designed with multiple frontends in mind. But I suppose putting it atop the livecd will work. | 10:50 |
| f_newton | october? | 10:50 |
| jasoncohen | brent, mid october | 10:50 |
| jasoncohen | october 13th is the exact date | 10:50 |
| Burgundavia | resiak, I was there in Mataro when we discussed X on d-i. It would not be pretty | 10:50 |
| Burgundavia | resiak, plus you get one cd | 10:50 |
| f_newton | exact date eh? | 10:50 |
| === jino [~jino@59.145.106.5] has joined #ubuntu | ||

| resiak | Burgundavia: Hmm, not pretty eh? Whoops. | 10:50 |
| jasoncohen | f_newton, they'll probably release very close to schedule | 10:50 |
| brent | when its out do i have to reinstall my whole system or can i just apt-get to recieve all of the updates and features. a reinstall will be a major pain in the arse | 10:50 |
| jasoncohen | f_newton, fedora was only about a week off | 10:51 |
| Burgundavia | resiak, what works on some hardware wouldn't work on others | 10:51 |
| resiak | Burgundavia: Eenteresting. | 10:51 |
| jasoncohen | f_newton, heh, but they just release without fixing bugs | 10:51 |
| f_newton | fedora should have been postponed till they got the kinks out | 10:51 |
| Burgundavia | brent, the upgrade path should be smooth | 10:51 |

| jasoncohen | brent, the recommended upgrade process is to use apt-get dist-upgrade or synaptic | 10:51 |
| PurpleMotion | brent: change all instances of "hoary" to "breezy" in /etc/apt/sources.list and then do: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 10:51 |
| wahlau | hi | 10:51 |
| Burgundavia | due to gnome stuff | 10:51 |
| Burgundavia | PurpleMotion, going to be even simpler | 10:51 |

| craig | so if i install that way all i type is sudo xine? | 01:02 |
| thoreauputic | craig: sometimes you need to refresh the gnome-panel ( killall gnome-panel) | 01:02 |
| thoreauputic | craig: no sudo | 01:03 |
| topyli | craig: just xine | 01:03 |
| Seveas | pkill -1 gnome-panel | 01:03 |
| craig | k | 01:03 |
| wtf_is_going_on | suddenly gnome quit | 01:03 |
| thoreauputic | craig: sudo would run it as root - pointless and a security risk | 01:03 |
| craig | i will try that and let ya know wat happens thanks for all ya help | 01:03 |
| wtf_is_going_on | i rebooted pc | 01:03 |
| topyli | craig: if a menu item doesn't appear, it will still be lots easier to create a menu entry than building xine from source | 01:03 |
| Seveas | wtf_is_going_on, what did you do just before that happened? | 01:03 |
| wtf_is_going_on | i were just downloading files | 01:04 |
| wtf_is_going_on | just like now | 01:04 |
| wtf_is_going_on | nothing else | 01:04 |

| jtgameover | craig, easiest way to edit your menu is to download smeg from the repos | 01:04 |
| jtgameover | smeg is a menu editor for gnome | 01:04 |
| jtgameover | braind-dead easy | 01:04 |
| topyli | craig: anyway, i wouldn't use xine-ui. totem has a nicer ui and it can use xine as the backend | 01:04 |
| === poningru cant wait till october | ||
| craig | ok | 01:04 |
| thoreauputic | craig: to get the totem back-end install totem-xine | 01:05 |
| craig | i will install xine from the repos and see if i kill the gome panel if it updates | 01:05 |
| hayden | poningru, both the video and audio of a .ogm file play in vlc but only the audio in totem | 01:05 |

| nq | Yeah, I know that, human nature of something. But Chinese are more interested in *FREE* things | 01:44 |
| Seveas | asdfDiplomats, that's not something to do for newbies | 01:45 |

| asdfDiplomats | prehaps that is why i ask | 01:45 |
| apokryphos | nq: the best things in life are free ;-) | 01:45 |
| nq | *Seveas*, can we stop this program? | 01:45 |
| Seveas | nq, why? | 01:46 |
| thoreauputic | nq: why would you want to stop it? | 01:46 |
| asdfDiplomats | Seveas: so you think you can help me out here? or what | 01:46 |
| selinium | nq: Companies send free cd's out all of the time. Most end up as coasters for cups of hot beverages. But I am sure this isn't the case with Ubuntu | 01:46 |
| nq | tooo waste of *MONEY* for ubuntu fundation | 01:46 |

| Gorgonzola | newbie question... new install of Ubuntu, and trying to run ./configure to install Tutris from source (just for the hell of it). from the config.log i believe i need gcc or similar to compile it... which packages do i actually need? (i tried gcc and gcc-3.3 but that didn't actually give me a gcc executable to run... i don't think) | 01:50 |
| asdfDiplomats | let me understand what you are saying, This bug that i am having has a id or uniqie name to it that i can tell you? | 01:50 |
| apokryphos | nq: in fact, I'd say there was a better case for China getting them. Broadband there isn't half as available as it is in America, and hence they'd have more trouble in downloading it | 01:50 |

| LinuxDolt | what does that have to do with color being shorter than colour? | 03:08 |

| apokryphos | acid2: the best way to learn to touch type is to do just this, though: (i) use the correct fingers for the correct keys, (ii) bring your fingers back once you hit each key, (iii) *always* use this method, and never revert despite it being unbelievably slow at first | 05:53 |
| acid2 | cool, ill give all of those a try | 05:53 |
| acid2 | thank you :) | 05:53 |

| acid2 | apokryphos: well yea - but I need to actyually learn which finger goes where ^_^ | 05:54 |
| apokryphos | acid2: and finally, (iv) look at the keys all the time at the beginning. Don't worry about typing without looking at the keys -- that comes without you knowing. These points, and you have it. | 05:54 |

| BTJustice | On 6.14... "... start KMail will use /home/username/.mail instead of /home/username/Mail" What the hell difference does that make??? | 05:55 |
| apokryphos | acid2: Sure. I just meant that a lot of the time these typing programs can be useless/annoying. All you need is practice. | 05:55 |
| acid2 | apokryphos: ah, I just want to make it fun while I start | 05:55 |
| acid2 | I mean, coding, or on irc - I just wanna get what im thinking down | 05:55 |
| apokryphos | acid2: which finger to use is pretty basic; two index fingers on F and J respectively. Some are questoinable, but the proper method you can find out from the Internet, for sure. | 05:55 |
| apokryphos | acid2: I know, but it'll likely be slightly annoying/dull at first -- seems so slow. That's why so many people don't get into it; they can't get past the first stage. :| | 05:56 |

| apokryphos | kaffeend: yah... that's what they all said. | 06:50 |
| lunitik | steven, what Seveas said is overkill | 06:50 |

| Chaotic_Shield | Funraiser, I just want the DHCP server to assign the same damn IP to the AP | 06:51 |
| Chaotic_Shield | that's it. | 06:51 |

| lunitik | Chaotic_Shield, I'm just trying to figure out why you are asking here about your router... | 06:52 |

| kaffeend | BTJustice what is what? | 06:52 |
| lunitik | barkley, no idea what could be wrong... although I'm using totem-xine | 06:52 |

| lunitik | kaffeend, UNIX understands MIME types... not file extensions | 07:11 |
| kaffeend | hmmm | 07:11 |
| gehel2 | kaffeend, no file exension. use "chmod a+x <file>" to make it executable | 07:11 |

| jkinz | kaffeend: UNIX doesn't even need MIME types. The system identifies files by looking at their actual content, and in some cases, by their "Magic number" | 07:13 |
| gregg_ | unichrome is an via/s3 graphics chipset | 07:13 |
| kaffeend | does the filename have to be inside the <>? | 07:13 |
| lunitik | !tell palandia about configx | 07:13 |
| lunitik | kaffeend, no | 07:13 |
| gehel2 | kaffeend, nope, assuming your file is named some_file, type "chmod a+x some_file" | 07:14 |
| steven | why do i get this when trying to run mpg321 Can't find a suitable libao driver. (Is device in use?) | 07:14 |
| kaffeend | lunitik ok thanks | 07:14 |
| lunitik | steven, because esd is using /dev/dsp | 07:14 |
| jkinz | kaffeend "<>" is a convention meaning "put something here that matches what is described here" | 07:14 |
| jkinz | kaffeend: for example <file name> means "use a file name in this part of the command | 07:14 |

| holycow | Beuno, if its not 'very ubuntu specific' i would say that it belongs in debian my self. perhaps others disagree but i don't see the ubuntu team being interested in a permanent fork of any particular set of packages | 07:58 |

| lunitik | thanks | 07:59 |
| thoreauputic | MikeW: you can get all that with apt or synaptic: it's all in the repositories | 07:59 |
| holycow | Beuno, well having a firefox extension might best be served as purely an ff extention from the moz website? then later you can package it up for debian and consequently ubuntu if you like? | 07:59 |

| f_newton | I have this little straightpin wire harness that gets internet access anywhere there's a telephoneline | 08:08 |
| lunitik | Factor[Y] , Razor-X, for the record, a .deb is simple a tar.gz with pre and post install scripts | 08:08 |

| f_newton | its from the old days | 08:08 |

| holycow | barkley, ah, link MikeW to that, it should give him a nice overview. i don't like to tell people how to think, but outline the issues surrounding their query | 08:09 |
| Razor-X | I doubt one program has the capability to convert the majority of the .tar.gz's into .debs | 08:09 |

| highvoltage | monsterror: you can simply replace the files there. | 08:54 |
| calamari | rob: mplayer | 08:55 |
| pestilence | IcemanV9: you need rdiff-backup on both machines, of course | 08:55 |
| barosl | let's ET - http://barosl.com/pub/desktop/barosl-desktop-1123180809.jpg | 08:55 |
| thoreauputic | calamari: try setting the xmms output plugin to esound | 08:55 |
| fakeowl | but i need to do the ctrl+alt+backspace bit from the command line | 08:55 |
| barosl | =3=33 | 08:55 |
| highvoltage | monsterror: gdm themes are just a bunch of xml files you can edit. | 08:55 |
| Zen | hey.. is WineX Free? | 08:55 |
| fakeowl | is that possible? | 08:55 |
| Seveas | monsterror, art.gnome.org/faq.php can help | 08:55 |
| OC-Elf | rob, mplayer is good at what id does | 08:55 |
| === cix [~cix@3E6B753E.rev.stofanet.dk] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| monsterror | Thanks, guys. | 08:55 |
| OC-Elf | Zen, no it is not | 08:55 |
| highvoltage | fakeowl: does "/etc/init.d/gdm restart" not suffice? | 08:55 |
| ^thehatsrule^ | Zen: depends on what you get, the full package is commercial tho | 08:55 |
| jmcnaught | Zen: it's free if you get it from their CVS (but that doesn't include everything)... otherwise you have to pay a subscription | 08:55 |

| fakeowl | highvoltage: wouldnt restarting gdm kill both my running x servers though | 08:56 |
| equex | VLC + MPlayer = allround combo | 08:56 |

| rob | I don't like mplayers gui though is it skinnable? | 08:56 |
| ^thehatsrule^ | barosl: ill play, but youre in korea? O.o | 08:56 |
| cix | holycow, and that means? | 08:56 |
| OC-Elf | jmcnaught, that requires a compile and lacks installshield support | 08:56 |
| OC-Elf | sucks | 08:56 |
| calamari | thoreauputic: didn't make a difference.. I decided to try all 3, alsa, esound and oss | 08:56 |

| holycow | cix, to invoke commands that require root priviledges you do sudo command -switch | 08:57 |

| jmcnaught | Zen: a lot of games work with regular wine, have you tried that? | 08:57 |
| ^thehatsrule^ | barosl: lol, but then i think i get bad pinag :P | 08:57 |
| barosl | i just found wonderful game and very interested :-) | 08:57 |
| holycow | cix, theoretically it helps to prevent newbs from running as root, and limits exposure to the root priviledges i guess | 08:57 |
| cix | holycow, hm ok, and I can't setup a root password anyway ? | 08:57 |
| cix | ok | 08:57 |
| Zen | ill have a go | 08:57 |
| Seveas | cix, you can | 08:58 |
| Seveas | but it's advised not to do that | 08:58 |
| barosl | ^thehatsrule^, oh yes... i think | 08:58 |
| holycow | cix, you can set one up sure, but its not necessary | 08:58 |

| Seveas | I think most do :) | 08:59 |
| ^thehatsrule^ | barosl: unless you have a fast dedicated server? | 08:59 |
| direwolf | is | 08:59 |
| jmcnaught | calamari: pretty badly... i had kqemu running winXP and it was usuable, but still pretty slow | 08:59 |
| ^thehatsrule^ | barosl: or one in between? | 08:59 |
| barosl | ^thehatsrule^, nope :-( | 08:59 |
| barosl | =3 | 08:59 |
| thoreauputic | fakeowl: actually ps aux | grep X would result in a more readable output | 08:59 |
| calamari | jmcnaught: oic.. I didn't try with xp, only 98, and it crashed out before it'd load up | 08:59 |
| ^thehatsrule^ | barosl: lol :P you know what ping you get to any US server? | 08:59 |
| IcemanV9 | cix: what do you think? :) | 08:59 |
| calamari | regular qemu is nice.. at least not as slow as bochs :) | 08:59 |

| calamari | nothing wrong with user friendly.. that's why I'm still a user.. :) | 09:01 |

| Hasbro | Have an issue I thought you guys might be able to help out with. | 09:22 |
| Hasbro | Scenario: | 09:22 |
| Hasbro | 1. Re-installed Ubuntu to dual boot with Windows XP | 09:22 |
| Hasbro | 2. Created separate \boot partition for grub, etc. | 09:22 |
| Hasbro | 3. When I got to the GRUB install portion I chose to not install to MBR and to install to a partition | 09:22 |
| Hasbro | 4. (Here's where I screwed up) I chose the wrong partition. Thought \boot was partition hda 0,0 when it was 0,2 | 09:22 |
| === F0ckF3ar22 [~balistic2@cpe-24-90-168-39.nj.res.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| Hasbro | 5. So now my Windows XP partition is hosed due to grub trying to install there. | 09:22 |
| Hasbro | 6. I know the XP partition didn't get formatted, only that grub got installed there. I guess Ubuntu can read/write to NTFS and that is why it was able to install there or maybe this is an incorrect assumption. | 09:22 |
| Hasbro | 7. Regardless, I can see all partitions when I run FIXBOOT from the Windows XP install CD. | 09:22 |

| lunitik | Stormx, supposedly... gstreamer0.8-ffmpeg + ffmpeg will allow it... but most just use totem-xine and w32codecs to view MPEG's | 09:58 |

| direwolf | got rid of rhythmbox too | 09:59 |
| Stormx | Sorry if I'm sounding stupid. | 09:59 |
| direwolf | use xmms | 09:59 |
| Seveas | Stormx, xmms and beep-media-player are other mediaplayers | 09:59 |
| Stormx | Im trying | 09:59 |
| MikeW | jmcnaught: Primary or logical. I'd imagine logical would be the place to put it? | 09:59 |
| jmcnaught | MikeW: 512 is okay. i used to recommend double your ram, but if you already have 512 ram 512 swap is good | 09:59 |

| thoreauputic | Stormx: if you install either xmms or beep-media-player and enable the esound output, mp3 should play | 09:59 |
| lunitik | Stormx, you mean XMMS beeped? or Beep the XMMS port to GTK+2.0? | 09:59 |
| jasoncohen | Seveas, isn't mp3 support as simple as "sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.8-mad" | 09:59 |
| Seveas | Stormx, then use it on ubuntu too :) | 09:59 |

| Seveas | or maybe even a GB | 10:00 |
| jasoncohen | Seveas, what does beep-media-player use? | 10:00 |
| Seveas | jasoncohen, same as xmms | 10:00 |
| lunitik | jasoncohen, Beep is XMMS for GTK+2.x | 10:00 |
| jmcnaught | MikeW: yeah, 768 is good | 10:00 |
| MikeW | jmcnaught: yeah, I was wondering, because I about putting it to primary, because if I set it to logical, wouldn't ALL partitions after that fall into logical too | 10:00 |
| thoreauputic | Stormx: options-prefs in xmms | 10:00 |
| jasoncohen | then it should work fine because xmms plays mp3s here w/o issue | 10:00 |

| Stormx | WOH! | 10:01 |
| direwolf | ah, need a driver ? | 10:01 |

| snid | anyone having a problem where Ubuntu boots but can not find the cd rom drive to do the installation ? | 10:04 |
| jmcnaught | MikeW: it might not need to be that large. it depends on how many things your computer will be running at once | 10:04 |
| jasoncohen | lunitik, gstreamer0.8-mad depends on libmad0 | 10:04 |

| Bubbling_Zombie | anton1 , what kind of network card are we talking about | 10:04 |
| MikeW | jmcnaught: gnome. I installed warty before and my machine was under considerable strain from the desktop. Mabye such a large swap will really help things along :) | 10:04 |
| Seveas | only for gstreamer based ones | 10:04 |
| direwolf | vista = waste | 10:04 |
| Seveas | that's why adding it to ubotu is wrong :) | 10:05 |
| lunitik | jasoncohen, tell Seveas that | 10:05 |
| Stormx | direwolf: agreed | 10:05 |
| jmcnaught | MikeW: I have X-Chat (irc), a terminal, firefox with 8 tabs and system monitor running. it reports that I'm using 175MB of ram right now | 10:05 |

| jasoncohen | Seveas, not true- gstreamer0.8 installs libmad0 which is used by the xine engine as well. that's why totem-xine can play mp3s as well as xmms/bmp etc. once gstreamer0.8-mad is installed | 10:05 |
| direwolf | i was getting back to that mikew ;) | 10:05 |
| thoreauputic | VISTA Viruses Insecurities Spyware Trojans Adware | 10:05 |
| Stormx | rofl | 10:05 |
| Seveas | jasoncohen, xmms has mp3 stuff built in | 10:05 |
| jmcnaught | MikeW: 128 mb of ram is not a lot for Gnome. but in linux you can choose to run a more lightweight desktop environment to have more ram for your apps | 10:05 |
| jasoncohen | Seveas, apt-cache show gstramer0.8-mad - you'll see libmad0 is a dependency | 10:06 |
| lunitik | jasoncohen, technically though, yes... although with KDE, you need akode-mad.... but then, thats not even listed on that page... so I guess thats not important | 10:06 |
| Stormx | I remember when I installed XMMS with FC3 | 10:06 |
| Stormx | "We have removed MPEG Layer 3 support" | 10:06 |
| MikeW | jmcnaught: Hmm, for this swap partition. What filesystem should I use. What mount point? | 10:06 |
| Stormx | !#*&^! | 10:06 |
| ubotu | Stormx: I haven't a clue | 10:06 |
| Seveas | thoreauputic, the first vista viruses are already available :) | 10:06 |

| MikeW | oh, I see it now | 10:07 |
| MartenH | thoreauputic, Hey. I just wanted to let you know I managed to get the cam working... only in one program out of three, but better than nothing =) | 10:07 |
| snid | hmm - again - any ideas as to why Ubuntu can load to install screen from a cd but then can not "mount" the cd to continue installation | 10:07 |
| Seveas | Stormx, no | 10:07 |
| jasoncohen | MikeW, fstab should look like "/dev/hdXX none swap sw 0 0" | 10:07 |
| jasoncohen | for swap | 10:07 |
| direwolf | primary ...then go go to filesystem type or whatever | 10:07 |
| direwolf | choose swap | 10:07 |
| lunitik | apokryphos, something like that... either way, wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats doesn't state anything about it | 10:07 |
| Seveas | a swap partition has no mountpoint | 10:07 |
| Stormx | OK I was mistaken | 10:07 |
| thoreauputic | MartenH: ah - well done ! | 10:07 |
| MikeW | yes, I see it now. Thanks | 10:07 |
| jasoncohen | direwolf, wait, is he in the installer? | 10:07 |

| jmcnaught | MikeW: the root or / filesystem is the most important one. all the other partitions attach into it somewhere. you need a root partition that is bootable, and then you can optionally have a /home partition, or a /var partition, /usr etc | 10:14 |

| thoreauputic | kaffeend: the command begins at "sudo cp" | 10:43 |
| poningru | I had a question why arent we reducing the amount of apps that we throw out there? | 10:43 |
| Pega | Or do I need to, like, copy one hard drive to linux, then change it to fat, move the files back, and then with next hard drive? | 10:43 |
| DVSoftware | yes if you have another 260 gb hdd | 10:43 |
| Pega | oh | 10:43 |
| kaffeend | so many questions.... what is breezy? leave out bash:~$ and I'm using the user terminal I guess | 10:43 |
| Chaotic_Shield | breezy == new Ubuntu version I think. | 10:44 |
| Burgundavia | Chaotic_Shield, correct | 10:44 |
| kaffeend | okies | 10:44 |
| MartenH | kaffeend, breezy is the next generation of bunut. you should be running hoary now since breezy is still in development | 10:44 |

| Pega | DVSoftware, that sucks. :( Well, thanks anyways. | 10:44 |
| yhager | kaffeend, just start the command with the 'sudo' part, not the 'bash' part.. | 10:44 |
| thoreauputic | kaffeend: bash:~$ is just the prompt | 10:44 |
| DVSoftware | Pega, just do that but instead of fat put ext3 or reiserfs and get rid of windows | 10:44 |
| Shadowpillar | question | 10:44 |
| ^thehatsrule^ | its unstable | 10:44 |
| Chaotic_Shield | it should be 'sudo cp /etc/apt/sources.list........ | 10:44 |

| Chaotic_Shield | ok | 10:44 |
| Chaotic_Shield | thanks Code_Dark | 10:44 |
| holycow | kaffeend, if you don't know what is breezy, theyn you aren't running it :) which is good | 10:44 |
| kaffeend | I don't know... I typed exactly what it said to type - actually, I just copied and pasted it | 10:45 |
| kaffeend | but I don't know WHAT I'm running | 10:45 |
| Shadowpillar | whenever an mp3 or wav file is played in the background of a play, it plays the sound a million times it seems (not looping, it spawns a shitload of processes all playing the same sound, and almost crashes the computer) | 10:45 |
| Pega | DVSoftware, my sister has used to use windows... Tho she would propably learn ubuntu very soon (this seems quite easy to use). So maybe I'll do that... | 10:45 |
| kaffeend | hoarty? | 10:45 |
| yhager | kaffeend, just copy starting the word 'sudo' and try again! | 10:45 |
| Chaotic_Shield | hey Seveas or Amaranth, could you unban Code_Dark? He's disabled his script. | 10:45 |
