| damneinstien | disasm: well, firestarters pretty good but i dont seem to be able to add a rule to allow incoming/outgoing conection from samba | 12:01 |
| PlanarPlatypus | transparentdream, that looks like it should work but not give you any accelleration. What do you mean when you say you can't run games? | 12:01 |
| apokryphos | thellama: please check the thread you were provided with; it will walk you through exactly what you have to put in etc | 12:01 |
| damneinstien | pnoman: actually i found out what the problem is.. its firestarter not letting the other computer access ports... | 12:01 |
| transparentdream | i mean any sort of acceleration. Gnometris works, etc. but nothing like tuxracer | 12:02 |
| damneinstien | pnoman: but i can't add a rule to let other computers access smb client. (all rule options are grayed out) | 12:02 |

| theeil | fblade1987: by " use bin" you mean run files ;)? | 01:36 |

| bobbyd | FLD, ? | 01:36 |
| pauldaoust | fblade1987: just go chmod +x name_of_file.bin | 01:36 |
| pauldaoust | fblade1987: and then go ./name_of_file.bin | 01:36 |
| disasm | fblade1987: what kind of bin file? you can always ./somebin.bin to run it, but if your using java, your better off using java-package to set it up, and dpkg -i the resulting .deb file | 01:36 |

| pauldaoust | mcphail: cool, I think I'll check it out. I've heard it mentioned a lot. | 01:37 |
| volvoguy | disasm, hmm. maybe you do. i wonder if a bridge is any cheaper than another wrt54g. | 01:37 |
| pauldaoust | fblade1987: incidentally, if the .bin file is an installer, you'll want to go sudo ./name_of_file.bin | 01:37 |
| fblade1987 | ahh i'll try but i confused easy lol | 01:37 |
| mcphail | pauldaoust: there was a decent introduction in the SuSE admin manual. I haven't read further than that. | 01:38 |
| pauldaoust | fblade1987: after you go chmod +x name_of_file.bin, it should be clickable from Nautilus | 01:38 |
| pauldaoust | (I think) | 01:38 |
| pauldaoust | mcphail: thanky kindly; I'll try to find that | 01:38 |
| disasm | volvoguy: no such luck, wrt54g goes for $40 if you get it at the right time, and a bridge goes for about $80 and has less signal strength than the router, supply and demand i guess | 01:38 |
| theeil | fblade1987: if they're in the path (echo $PATH) you can just type the name of the file to run it (to run vim, you type vim) and as other ppl have been saying, if you're in the same folder as the file (pwd) just type ./filename | 01:38 |

| chrisbudden | when is Breezy out? | 02:52 |
| zeus1_ | pauldaoust check #flood channel | 02:52 |
| Gobbla | october i think | 02:52 |
| pepsi | there is no description of what each modules is for | 02:52 |
| thrice` | is breezy preview considered stable enough to upgrade ? | 02:52 |
| pauldaoust | pepsi: I guess the best thing to do actually is ask what you're trying to do. are you having problems? or is everything okay, and you just want to improve performance? or are you trying to enable transparency and shadows? | 02:52 |
| pepsi | pauldaoust, well i dunno.. im reconfigureing xserver-xorg cause i want a higher resolution, but the default for theose modules is none of them | 02:53 |
| pepsi | im using nv for now, will use nvidia if i cant get 1600x1200 | 02:53 |
| pepsi | transparency would be nice though | 02:53 |
| pauldaoust | pepsi: that's unusual; you should at least have DRI and glx enabled | 02:53 |
| catphive | gnome freezes on bootup for me when trying to launch matacity. the "safe" session option works fine though. how do I reset my gnome startup script so that so that I don't need to use the safe session? | 02:53 |
| pauldaoust | pepsi: not sure why it didn't enable those by default | 02:54 |
| pauldaoust | zeus1_: well, it does say "registered new driver snd-usb-audio" which is a good sign. maybe you just aren't choosing the proper soundcard to output to, in the program that you're using? | 02:54 |

| AlinuxOS | fblade1987, http://ubuntuguide.org/ ctrl + f search word "codecs". | 03:18 |
| pauldaoust | AMCDeathKnight: that depends on where you put it :) most likely, you would have put it on the /dev/hda2 partiiton (if you don't have any fancy partiitoning and you followed the Gentoo guide which suggested making a tiny partition at /dev/hda1 for /boot) | 03:18 |
| bluefoxicy | damnit | 03:19 |
| pauldaoust | AMCDeathKnight: then on that partition you would find it under /home/yourusername | 03:19 |
| bluefoxicy | my gcs632u KVM isn't working | 03:19 |
| pauldaoust | AMCDeathKnight: but first you have to mount it. go like this at the command line: sudo mkdir /media/harddrive | 03:19 |
| disasm | AMCDeathKnight: i;d guess hda4 or 5 | 03:19 |
| pauldaoust | AMCDeathKnight: sudo mount /dev/hda2 /media/harddrive | 03:19 |
| pauldaoust | AMCDeathKnight: oh you have fancy partitions? | 03:20 |
| AMCDeathKnight | I changed it to hd1 | 03:20 |
| pauldaoust | AMCDeathKnight: if you have more than four partitions it'll start at /dev/hda5 | 03:20 |
| disasm | AMCDeathKnight: cause setting up gentoo they tell you hda1 for boot hda2 for swap hda3 for / and i'd assume you'd use hda4 for /home | 03:20 |

| disasm | pauldaoust: you can try using alternate dm/wm maybe try fluxbox, and run a sound app | 03:32 |
| pauldaoust | disasm: that's a clever idea. just for troubleshooting purposes? | 03:33 |
| pauldaoust | disasm: looking at the manpage tells me that xrdb is usually called from your "X startup file", although I would assume that a distro like this, that uses a login manager, probably loads it at a different point. | 03:33 |

| MarioC | robertbb, do you want to hide your buddy list? | 04:28 |
| abbot45 | Is the Linksys WRT54g the best out there? I don't think im gonna be tweaking it and putting my own firmware on it and stuff. I just want something thats going to work nicely out of the box for a 3 or 4 computer home network. | 04:28 |

| Maikeru | disasm, no | 04:32 |
| Maikeru | abbot45, sort from low to high and then there's a thing to set min and max price, sometimes you'll want a minimum to block out unwanted things (extra accessories, etc.) | 04:33 |

| zeus1_ | whats X | 04:55 |
| Maikeru | since I don't have wireless working on my laptop | 04:55 |

| Maikeru | Good day. | 04:55 |
| Maikeru | If you want to get into a console press Ctrl-Alt-F1-F5 or somethin like that | 04:55 |
| zeus1_ | disasm whats X | 04:55 |
| Maikeru | F6 or F7 is gdm | 04:55 |
| Maikeru | zeus1_, it's the server that allows gdm to run, etc. | 04:56 |
| pauldaoust | zeus1_: X is the server that gives you graphics instead of text | 04:56 |
| Maikeru | it's a display server basically | 04:56 |

| zeus1_ | k | 04:56 |
| zeus1_ | what was the command | 04:56 |
| zeus1_ | rmmod something | 04:56 |
| disasm | zeus1_: you can always try ctrl alt f1, login, sudo /etc/init.d gdm stop; rmmod snd-intel8x0 | 04:57 |

| tritium | alex_theosxuser, not sure | 07:58 |
| alex_theosxuser | I choose 'linux' which is 2.6.13 and it then says welcome to linux but this is it | 07:58 |
| johndarkhorse | alex_theosxuser: i missed your question | 07:58 |
| Riskbreaker9 | quick question, what exactly do you do wiith a *.run file? (this is probably going to end up being the stupidest question i've asked) | 07:59 |
| alex_theosxuser | johndarkhorse, oh the ubuntu win't boot anymore | 07:59 |
| tritium | alex_theosxuser, perhaps you didn't compile in a necessary option | 07:59 |
| alex_theosxuser | I followed the HOWTO from ubuntuforums | 07:59 |
| johndarkhorse | alex_theosxuser: is it a kernel from the repos? | 07:59 |
| alex_theosxuser | no | 07:59 |
| alex_theosxuser | from kernel.org | 07:59 |
| alex_theosxuser | I used --initrd option too | 07:59 |
| tritium | alex_theosxuser, why not just use an ubuntu kernel? | 07:59 |
| alex_theosxuser | fon't know :) | 08:00 |
| jack- | are there ppc repos too? wow | 08:00 |
| bob2 | if it won't boot, it's almost certainly because you misconfigured it | 08:00 |
| johndarkhorse | alex_theosxuser: i recommend you get into your yaboot and point it at a kernel that runs | 08:00 |
| bob2 | why do you need 2.6.13? | 08:00 |
| johndarkhorse | alex_theosxuser: and then d/l hte kernel sources and patches from the repos | 08:00 |
| alex_theosxuser | bob2, to get working sound | 08:00 |
| Riskbreaker9 | like, i was trying to download the Unreal Tournament 2004 demo, for shits and giggles. i doubleclick the run file and it just brings up a large text file. | 08:00 |
| tritium | alex_theosxuser, is it a G5? | 08:00 |
| Riskbreaker9 | what am i supposed to do? | 08:00 |
| alex_theosxuser | no, mac mini G4 | 08:00 |
| Agrajag | Riskbreaker9: open a terminal, chmod +x whatever.run | 08:01 |
| johndarkhorse | alex_theosxuser: sound should work on the mini | 08:01 |
| bob2 | Riskbreaker9: it really had no instructions at all on place you got it from? | 08:01 |
| alex_theosxuser | yes, with the new 2.6.13 kernel | 08:01 |
| alex_theosxuser | johndarkhorse | 08:01 |
| bob2 | alex_theosxuser: use the ubuntu .config with it, and only change the one sound option you need | 08:01 |
| Riskbreaker9 | nope, non | 08:01 |
| Agrajag | Riskbreaker9: what | 08:01 |
| bob2 | 2.6.13 may or may not actualy work on hoary, tho | 08:01 |
| bob2 | gven the whole udev thing | 08:02 |
| Agrajag | Riskbreaker9: run it from the terminal then, ./whatever.run | 08:02 |
| Riskbreaker9 | no directions, in reponse to bob. sorry. | 08:02 |
| Agrajag | oh | 08:02 |
| tritium | alex_theosxuser, did you try building newer alsa modules first? | 08:02 |
| Riskbreaker9 | i'll try what you told me | 08:02 |
| alex_theosxuser | no | 08:02 |
| alex_theosxuser | tritium | 08:02 |
| alex_theosxuser | tritium. I didn't | 08:02 |
| Riskbreaker9 | okay, i typed in the chmod command. should i have gotten a message? | 08:02 |
| tritium | alex_theosxuser, you might consider that rather than a new kernel | 08:03 |

| Riskbreaker9 | that's weird, why do you have to use a command to make something executable? | 08:04 |

| bob2 | dryhump: is too late to exchange it for a better supported one., tho? | 08:47 |
| dryhump | yes | 08:47 |
| spear-north | so no idea about that kind of webpage ? | 08:47 |
| dryhump | :( | 08:47 |
| bob2 | spear-north: google gave you no results? | 08:47 |
| dryhump | wtf is ndiswrapper | 08:47 |
| bob2 | I doubt there's any sort of organised website for that | 08:47 |
| bob2 | at least a useful one; it's too easy to just try them out for yourself, instead of letting someone else tell you | 08:48 |
| spear-north | maybe it's an idea to build such a site, no ? | 08:48 |
| dabaR | the newusersmultimedia talks about it a little... | 08:48 |
| dabaR | they all work. | 08:48 |
| dryhump | dabar, was that for me? | 08:48 |
| bob2 | dryhump: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SetupNdiswrapperHowto | 08:49 |
| dryhump | thanks bob2 | 08:49 |

| Madpilot | spear-north: have a look around the wiki, I think something like that would be useful | 08:52 |
| dryhump | i didnt think i was whining | 08:52 |

| spear-north | i' ll have a look around ! like you said, it can be useful ! | 08:53 |

| dazvid | bob2, Does cplay have a GUI? or is console based? | 08:54 |
| dazvid | is it* | 08:54 |
| Madpilot | spear-north: there's going to be a bunch of screen-shot heavy docs released along with Breezy in a month or so, some of them could probably fit into a comparision like you're talking about | 08:54 |
| dabaR | it is nice, tried it? | 08:54 |
| dabaR | dazvid: ^ | 08:55 |
| dazvid | I have downloaded and installed.. however its not playing my songs -_- | 08:55 |
| dabaR | you started cplay from console? | 08:56 |
| spear-north | i think so ! At the final point, even if it's not the objective for now, what i understand, it would maybe be a good idea to settle screenshots in Synaptic and some more important descriptions of functionalities ... the future is probably there | 08:57 |
| dazvid | Yeh | 08:57 |
| dazvid | just cplay musicdir/ | 08:57 |
| bob2 | dazvid: it's a console application, yes | 08:57 |
| dazvid | ah ok | 08:57 |
| bob2 | searching the fine web when you have no idea what you're doing can be dangerous | 08:57 |
| dabaR | bob2: does it need codecs? the libmad/gstreamer? | 08:58 |
| bob2 | you might find a broken howto or something | 08:58 |
| bob2 | dabaR: it shells out to command-line players, like ogg123 and madplay | 08:58 |
| dabaR | bob2: a question like what is ndiswrapper does need google, tho. | 08:58 |
| bob2 | sure | 08:58 |
| bob2 | but "how do I use ndiswrapper on ubuntu?" will cause problems if googled | 08:58 |
| bob2 | because you'll find the wiki page I pointed someone at | 08:58 |
| bob2 | and it goes through all sorts of crap about rebuilding ndiswrapper modules | 08:59 |
| bob2 | and force-installing them | 08:59 |
| dabaR | right, I was reading the @ask by apt/#debian referenced page...so I thought it was a good place to use stfw.... | 09:00 |
| bob2 | heh | 09:00 |
| dazvid | dabaR, when in cplay, and playing a song it comes up with a message "Player not found". Does that imply the install failed? | 09:00 |
| dazvid | or rather, the codecs needed to play mp3's | 09:01 |
| dabaR | install mpg321 and mpg123 | 09:01 |
| bob2 | no codecs | 09:01 |
| dazvid | ah thanks | 09:01 |
| dabaR | bob2: why not tell him what to do, it just works here...so I dont know... | 09:02 |

| dabaR | !mp3 | 09:04 |
| ubotu | it has been said that mp3 is read http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats for information about mp3 support | 09:04 |
| bob2 | since cplay Suggests all the bits you need | 09:05 |
| dabaR | It installed only itself here, I guess I have the other things from before. | 09:05 |
| dazvid | Thats ok, I want to learn.. its just really different and hard to get used to | 09:05 |
| dabaR | bob2: aptitude is now the proper cl program to use. | 09:05 |
| bob2 | I think so | 09:05 |
| bob2 | dazvid: as dabaR said, tho, cplay perhaps isn't what you want | 09:06 |

| youngcoder | bob2, well i have a problem with kernel panic while booting it.. it involves VFS.. any clue what causes that? | 10:01 |
| gjoemmie | its just I dont know ANYTHING about it | 10:01 |
| gjoemmie | I learned how to use gtkgnutella | 10:01 |
| bob2 | youngcoder: that's caused by you not configuring it correctly | 10:01 |
| Madpilot | gjoemmie: anything about what? please be specific! | 10:01 |
| gjoemmie | so I can download movies | 10:01 |
| dducko | Could someone tell me what is on www.nvidia.com that might crash firefox? | 10:01 |
| bob2 | youngcoder: why do you want 2.6.13? | 10:01 |
| gjoemmie | but now I wanna play them | 10:01 |
| bob2 | dducko: flash? | 10:02 |
| gjoemmie | but the quality in Totem is very bad | 10:02 |
| youngcoder | bob2, it is my first kernel compile | 10:02 |
| johndarkhorse | gjoemmie: dont use the root-terminal, use sudo | 10:02 |
| Madpilot | dducko: lots of flash? | 10:02 |
| bob2 | youngcoder: why are you compiling it? | 10:02 |
| youngcoder | bob2, just wanted to do it and see if it works | 10:02 |
| bob2 | youngcoder: ok... | 10:02 |
| dducko | I dont know.. ive been haveing random problems since i installed the nvidia-glx drivers | 10:02 |

| jtan325 | bob2: actually, that doesn't look like a good idea | 10:43 |

| bob2 | or ubuntu packages | 10:43 |
| bob2 | or whatever | 10:43 |
| jtan325 | well right now i've got 6 broken packages... | 10:44 |
| jtan325 | among them libc6, libfontconfig, libxrender-dev | 10:44 |
| bob2 | this is entirely unrelated to cairo | 10:44 |
| jtan325 | well | 10:44 |
| bob2 | unless you did something extraordinarily silly like modifying your cairo in /usr/ | 10:44 |
| jtan325 | no | 10:45 |
| jtan325 | didn't do that | 10:45 |
| jtan325 | but | 10:45 |
| bob2 | or installed a broken homebrew cairo package | 10:45 |
| jtan325 | when i tried to "dpkg -i" cairo 1.0 (official release) | 10:45 |
| jtan325 | it complained about dependencies | 10:45 |
| === theturtle beats cairo | ||
| jtan325 | so i followed those, downloaded the .deb's for those | 10:45 |
| jtan325 | mostly stable, some testing, none experimental | 10:45 |
| bob2 | wtf | 10:45 |
| bob2 | you're boned then | 10:46 |
| jtan325 | installed them, and then finally libcairo worked | 10:46 |
| bob2 | reinstall | 10:46 |
| bob2 | and don't do such silly things in future | 10:46 |

| bob2 | I've told you how, twice | 10:47 |
| bob2 | 18:42:21 bob2 | jtan325: 18:37:53 bob2 | jtan325: well, install it to /usr/local/ and use LD_LIBRARY_PATH for apps that need it | 10:47 |
| jack- | bob2, is there some graphical frontend app for mplayer, too? | 10:47 |
| jtan325 | no, i've read that | 10:47 |
| jtan325 | so you mean install libcairo by compiling from source or something? | 10:47 |
| bob2 | yes | 10:47 |
| bob2 | if it has a different SONAME, you could compile the debian source package of 1.0 | 10:48 |

| johndarkhorse | dbzdeath: jdub suggested a possible fix | 10:56 |

| bob2 | GNAM: then go compile it yourself | 10:57 |
| dbzdeath | hmmm it now wants to install gcc-3.3 again | 10:57 |
| bob2 | it sounds like a waste of time | 10:57 |
| bob2 | dbzdeath: because you removed gcc | 10:57 |

| dbzdeath | hmmm | 11:29 |
| HappyFool | scanwinder: you can add applets to the panel (right-click on a panel, choose 'add to panel'). Panels are the bars at top and bottom of the screen. | 11:29 |
| Cashel | dbzdeath, whats on top of top? | 11:30 |
| dbzdeath | Cashel: hmmm well it seems to be running alright now ... i did restart samba and i did stop the copying via samba that i was doing | 11:31 |
| dbzdeath | so it has to be samba related | 11:31 |
| HappyFool | dbzdeath: well, if dma is disabled, all disk i/o goes through the cpu | 11:31 |
| dbzdeath | HappyFool: AHHHH so that would be why | 11:32 |
| dbzdeath | thats a lot of pressure then on the cpu | 11:32 |
| johndarkhorse | nightswim: gdesklets, adesklets, and superkaramba all have wonderful eyecandy | 11:32 |
| dbzdeath | wait a minute.... its copying not to my sata disk but to my other disk | 11:32 |
| HappyFool | well, it will at the very least cause context switches etc | 11:33 |
| HappyFool | you said dma wasn't enabled there either, iirc | 11:33 |
| HappyFool | not having dma on your main hdd (including swap partition) would probably cause a noticeable performance lag | 11:34 |
| dbzdeath | HappyFool: yes thats my point... if i enable it on the non sata disk it should fix it? | 11:34 |
| HappyFool | dbzdeath: it will help transfers to that disk, presumably | 11:34 |
| dbzdeath | HappyFool: HDIO_SET_DMA failed: Operation not permitted i get that when i try hdparm -d 1 /dev/hda <--- thats the drive that repots that dma is disabled | 11:34 |
| johndarkhorse | dbzdeath: enabling dma on all your disks is a good idea, imho | 11:35 |
| === Cashel starts a 2 meg download at 14.4 and kills himself | ||
| dbzdeath | johndarkhorse: yeah i know... having a little trouble with that here though :( | 11:35 |
| HappyFool | dbzdeath: all i can guess is lack of kernel support for your ide/sata chipset | 11:35 |
| dbzdeath | hmmmm | 11:36 |
| dbzdeath | its a via chip | 11:36 |
| dado | guys, how can i run games on 1280x800 in cedega? please help me :) | 11:36 |
| HappyFool | Cashel: i'd seriously consider buying a new modem; i have a intel 536ep based winmodem and it works perfectly well | 11:36 |
| dbzdeath | isn't via cips supported well on linux? | 11:36 |
| HappyFool | dado: try #cedega | 11:36 |
| HappyFool | dbzdeath: ask google | 11:37 |
| dbzdeath | via k8t800 chipset | 11:37 |
| Cashel | is samba the only method available for rw on ntfs drives?? | 11:37 |
| HappyFool | Cashel: samba is for network filesystems, not for accessing ntfs drives | 11:37 |
| dbzdeath | Cashel: captive ntfs is your friend | 11:37 |
| HappyFool | Cashel: ubuntu has read-only support for ntfs | 11:37 |
| HappyFool | doesn't captive require a patched kernel? | 11:38 |
| dbzdeath | HappyFool: hmm afaik no...? | 11:38 |
| dbzdeath | i've only used it on knoppix | 11:38 |
| Cashel | never had a sata drive, but isnt there some sort of scsi kernel modules for it? | 11:38 |
| HappyFool | dbzdeath: ah, they may have patched there. someone here was trying to install it on ubuntu and couldn't | 11:38 |
| HappyFool | dbzdeath: i may be wrong | 11:38 |
| dbzdeath | yeah so may i | 11:38 |
| Cashel | hmmm did a locate: /lib/modules/2.6.10-5-386/kernel/drivers/scsi/sata_promise.ko | 11:39 |
| HappyFool | Cashel: there are probably more; isn't there a sata.ko too? | 11:40 |
| Cashel | I would definetly be search for a sata howto were I you... | 11:40 |
| Cashel | +ing | 11:40 |
| dbzdeath | yup my ide controller is P_IDE: VIA vt8237 (rev 00) IDE UDMA133 controller on pci0000:00:0f.1 <--as shown in dmesg | 11:40 |
| dbzdeath | seems supported | 11:40 |
| Cashel | HappyFool, yeah, that was for example.... | 11:41 |
| Cashel | I have a conextant modem unfortunetly... bastards charge for drivers.. 15 USD .... for that I could buy a new modem! heh | 11:42 |
| Cashel | .. if I had 15 bucks atm, which I dont unfortunetly.. | 11:42 |
| HappyFool | dbzdeath: interesting. VP_IDE: VIA vt8237 (rev 00) IDE UDMA133 controller on pci0000:00:0f.0 (from by dmesg) | 11:42 |
| dbzdeath | HappyFool: by = my? | 11:42 |
| HappyFool | yeah | 11:42 |
| dbzdeath | hmmm what motherboard? | 11:42 |
| HappyFool | err | 11:43 |
| Cashel | bbl | 11:43 |
| HappyFool | not sure of the model anymore. gigabyte, with amd 2500XP | 11:45 |
| dbzdeath | ah | 11:46 |
| dbzdeath | i have a asus k8v se deluxe | 11:47 |
| dbzdeath | HappyFool: hdparm -i /dev/sda spits out some stuff | 11:47 |
| dbzdeath | http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-29443.html interesting looks like what i have | 11:50 |
| HappyFool | dbzdeath: well, the one guy there has some concrete suggestions (floogy) | 11:52 |
| dbzdeath | does anyone know the difference between dma and ultradma? | 11:53 |
| brownie17 | hey, i am trying to use "doom legacy" a game i found in synapitic | 11:54 |
| brownie17 | and i cannot | 11:54 |
| brownie17 | it gives me an error about doom.wad | 11:55 |
| brownie17 | says it doesnt exist | 11:55 |
| brownie17 | anyone else use this game? | 11:55 |
| HappyFool | brownie17: i think you need the original doom .WAD file to play it | 11:55 |
| brownie17 | happyfool: yeh i downloaded it from the internet | 11:55 |
| brownie17 | still doesnt work | 11:56 |
| HappyFool | brownie17: sorry, never actually used it. read the docs (probably in /usr/share/doc/doom-legacy/ or similar) | 11:56 |
| brownie17 | ok | 11:56 |
| jack- | could someone do me a huge favor, do "cat /usr/share/applications/screensaver-properties.desktop" and paste me the results in pm? :< | 11:56 |
| jack- | pleaseplease.. | 11:57 |
| HappyFool | jack-: i'll try pastebinning it, though i'm not sure what's going to happen with utf8 stuff | 11:57 |
| jack- | ok, thx :) | 11:57 |
| Gnonthgol | jack-: cat: /usr/share/applications/screensaver-properties.desktop: No such file or directory | 11:58 |

| Gnonthgol | HappyFool: thanks | 11:59 |
| jack- | np, many thanks | 11:59 |

| ompaul | sedatc, for a file which has things that can be executed it can be executed in one of two ways - one is by passing it to a shell 'sh file_to_be_executed' and the other is to use the shell you are in to invoke the command so in a terminal in your home directory you type 'nano' it starts an editor, but linux is in no way like that other thing that claims to be an operating system which defines the type of file by its extention name | 12:40 |

| HappyFool | Alex_BO: but you can probably just comment those out if you don't want to do any compiling | 12:40 |
| ompaul | sedatc, you need to read some stuff online I think using uncle google and the terms 'file permissions linux faq' you may get the kind of info you want | 12:41 |

| ompaul | sedatc, so look at shared library on google if you have a specific question then ask it - shared libs are exactly what they say on the tin - shared and can be called by several execuatables | 12:45 |
| Alex_BO | bimberi, don't say me that there isn't a version for amd64 | 12:45 |

| HappyFool | brownie: the lowest level of the OS. it manages the computer's resources (hardware) for higher levels of the system | 02:06 |
| scumbo | linforcer, I think you'd need to grab the source package to see the compile flags. Some progs (e.g. vim) tell you their flags with a --version flag, but it's not standard. | 02:06 |

| dbzdeath | qt2: sorry but i can't be of much help if its the ati card... i've only ever used nvidia cards | 02:14 |
| qt2 | and yet it does. ;) | 02:14 |
| apokryphos | regardless of whether you're using an ATI card. ATI provides lame support for Linux, but that mostly means you won't get cool affects with X | 02:14 |
| brownie | there is nothing wrong with ATI cards, they are a perfect replacemtn for an nivdia, at reasonable prices, and fairly stable if not overclocked | 02:15 |
| dbzdeath | apokryphos: yeah well i've still heard of it doing dodgy things | 02:15 |
| apokryphos | if everythng freezes (and not just x), it sounds more like kernel problems | 02:15 |
| Cashel | qt2, fish7678, did you comment the Section "DRI" and Load "glx" portions of the xorg.conf when you installed the xfglrx drivers? | 02:15 |

| brownie | i have been using the ATI card for three years, a 32 radeon VE and i can still play most modern games | 02:16 |
| Cashel | the problem with ATI cards (the reason everyone hates them) are the drivers, not the cards themselves | 02:16 |
| dbzdeath | yeah the drivers are bad... | 02:16 |
| dbzdeath | in both systems really ... although linux is worse | 02:16 |
| brownie | cashel: i've never had a problem with the drivers, what do you mean? | 02:16 |
| dbzdeath | *in both windows and linux | 02:16 |
| apokryphos | brownie: on WIndows it's generally good | 02:16 |
| apokryphos | but the Linux support/drivers are terrible. ATI simply don't care for unix | 02:17 |
| dalamar | lack of open source with ati drivers is the bad thing | 02:17 |
| brownie | apokryphos: i havent been using it for very long on linux | 02:17 |
| dbzdeath | lol my mate has to use a lower agp due to his ati card | 02:17 |
| === Cashel has an ATI Radeon 9600 Pro and loves it to death.. but the drivers do kinda suck :) | ||
| dbzdeath | agp speed | 02:17 |
| brownie | dalamar: | 02:17 |
| dbzdeath | due to incompatibility with his motherboard or something | 02:17 |
| brownie | dbzdeath: get PCI express :) | 02:17 |
| apokryphos | qt2: does he have the appropriate kernel for his 64-bit? | 02:17 |
| Cashel | brownie, AGP support is crappy, 3d excel in X is only recently workable and still a bit heavy on memory... | 02:17 |
| brownie | SLI!!!! | 02:17 |
| dbzdeath | brownie: i'm not having the problem :P | 02:17 |
| Cashel | theres a work around for the radeon agp 4x issue under winblows.. | 02:18 |
| qt2 | Cashel, cant keep it going long enough to install fglrx. | 02:18 |
| brownie | "3D excel in X"? argh, jargon attack! i dont understand | 02:18 |
| brownie | dbzdeath: :) | 02:18 |
| qt2 | apokryphos, he downloaded the amd64 version of ubuntu, so i'd assume so. | 02:18 |
| dbzdeath | qt2: hmm... all default? server install? | 02:18 |
| dalamar | 3d acceleration in X windows... basically why anyone has a high end graphics card | 02:18 |
| Cashel | qt2, what apokryphos just said... sounds like kernel issues... | 02:18 |
| brownie | cashel: with ya | 02:19 |
| qt2 | dbzdeath, yeah, i guess, he essentially just hit enter and filled in the ntwork and resolution info. | 02:19 |

| styles` | ur on gentoo? | 02:25 |
| brownie17 | dbzdeath: is it easy to just switch between gnome and one of the others with just a restart? or is there mass work to switch? | 02:25 |

| Cashel | hmmm anyone know a nice front end for gnuchess? | 02:38 |
| Alex_BO | dbzdeath, well...i don't wanna install another ubuntu inside the mine | 02:38 |
| HappyFool | Cashel: maybe xboard? | 02:39 |
| ompaul | iveqy, terminal set - character encoding - your character set | 02:39 |
| Cashel | xboard! thanks ...couldnt remember that much even, heh | 02:39 |
| iveqy | ompaul thx, but I don't have the iso-8859-10 on my system, do you know witch package to download? | 02:39 |
| dbzdeath | Alex_BO: if you have the drive space it isn't a big deal... but in that case your best bet is to find a 32 bit binary of wine somewhere... a slackware package perhaps? | 02:39 |
| ompaul | Alex_BO, if you do not do that, you will not be able to get applications that only exist as 32 bit at this time to run on your machine | 02:40 |
| Alex_BO | dbzdeath, because i figured out that there aren't programs like DVDShrink in Linux | 02:40 |
| snoogert | HappyFool: ok, i've do it | 02:40 |
| dbzdeath | Alex_BO: yeah.. well if you have cedega... that should work | 02:40 |
| Alex_BO | dbzdeath, and i read that the only way it's to emule them | 02:40 |
| reiki | I have downloaded what appear to be gnome themes. The one I am interested in is called Gnant. However I can't seem to find where Gnome is storing themes so I can put this directory there. Anyone have a clue for me? :) | 02:40 |
| dbzdeath | yup basically Alex_BO | 02:41 |
| dbzdeath | !tell Alex_BO about 32bit chroot | 02:41 |
| dbzdeath | might wanna look at that | 02:41 |
| dbzdeath | it isn't too hard | 02:41 |

| dalamar | LaserLine, should be what order the programs are run in, some programs need others running before they are started etc | 02:44 |
| HappyFool | does anyone know what to install to get 32-bit gcc compatibility libs for amd64? | 02:44 |
| LaserLine | Gnonthgol - so the lower the number, the faster it get's loaded ? | 02:44 |
| Cashel | lsuactiafner, ATA is hd I believe.. | 02:44 |
| dbzdeath | Alex_BO: hmmm yes but i wouldn't recommend attempting to burn the iso in a vm... i have no idea if vmware can do that | 02:45 |
| snoogert | HappyFool: i've already lib32gcc1 installed... | 02:45 |
| dbzdeath | HappyFool: hmmm don't you just use -m32? | 02:45 |
| dalamar | dvd shrink rips dvds doesnt it? | 02:45 |
| dbzdeath | dalamar: yeah it also can re-encode them so they can be made small enough... say dvd9 to dvd5 | 02:46 |
| Alex_BO | dbzdeath, i know that dvdshrink can make iso or only VOB and AUDIO files.i can get them to linux and burn them in linux.what do you think about? | 02:46 |
| dbzdeath | Alex_BO: sounds like a plan :) | 02:46 |

| snoogert | dbzdeath: no, i don't want a 32bit grub... | 02:52 |
| dbzdeath | snoogert: open up the makefile | 02:53 |
| dbzdeath | it should have -m32 somewhere? | 02:53 |
| snoogert | dbzdeath: just a moment... | 02:53 |
| HappyFool | the config.log shows -m32 | 02:53 |
| darksatanic | Last time I heard anything about it, grub didn't build as a 64-bit binary. | 02:53 |
| dbzdeath | yeah HappyFool that shouldn't be happening | 02:54 |
| HappyFool | maybe it needs to be 32 bit (?). i've never compiled grub | 02:54 |
| darksatanic | AFAIK, it has to be built as 32-bit. | 02:54 |
| lsuactiafner | if you use -m32 in glibc of ubuntu it doesnt work as it should, you need gcc4 | 02:55 |
| HappyFool | i suppose the other question would be why can't you use the grub from the install cd ? | 02:55 |
| snoogert | dbzdeath: i've checked the "Makefile.in" but non m32.... | 02:55 |

| MrBear | yes | 04:09 |
| candlelight | cheesie, search for java in ubuntu wiki, i just installed a jdk 1.5 update 4 | 04:09 |
| apokryphos | yes, I doubt that somehow. | 04:09 |
| selinium | apokryphos: I assume that is an app not a curse! :) | 04:09 |

| dodder | Anyone mind helping me fixing the connection between php-apache2 to mysql on my ubuntu system. ? | 04:11 |
| twoSharp | can anyone point me in a direction of making cdemu install properly? i just get this error: "make: *** No rule to make target `cdemu.ko', needed by `modules'. Stop." even if i have installed the kernel-source.. one thing i have noticed is that "/lib/modules/2.6.10-5-386/build" doesn't exist even after installling the kernel-source.. | 04:11 |
| === apokryphos doesn't even use a start-up menu: waste of time (for me) | ||
| dodder | it just seems i need the mysql.so file... i just don't know where to get it, where to put it, or where to load it... i might be wrong.. | 04:12 |

| dalamar | I installed the nvidia drivers according to the wiki and though I get the splashscreen and everything I only get 250 fps on average, I only have a 32 meg card but still this is wierd and trying to install cedega it says no 3d acceleration supported, anyone know whats up? | 04:12 |
| apokryphos | theeil: what, and use no non-gnome apps? | 04:12 |
| HappyFool | dalamar: does 'glxinfo |grep direct' give 'Yes' ? | 04:13 |
| theeil | apokryphos: no, i mean that i do use many of the built in things though | 04:13 |
| dodder | anyone? | 04:13 |
| dalamar | HappyFool, checking one sec | 04:13 |
| HappyFool | dodder: have you looked at the lamp page on the wiki? | 04:13 |
| candlelight | dalamar, just curious how to check the # of fps? | 04:13 |
| HappyFool | !lamp | 04:13 |
| ubotu | lamp is, like, totally, Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP, one of the standard internet server installations. Installing LAMP in Hoary is fairly straightforward. More info at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ApacheMySQLPHP | 04:13 |
| dalamar | candlelight, run glxgears in a terminal | 04:14 |
| dalamar | HappyFool, it says 'yes'? | 04:14 |
| dodder | well can't i just use the programs already pre-installed with the basic installation ? | 04:14 |
| HappyFool | dalamar: hmm. sounds like you have opengl rendering to me | 04:15 |
| HappyFool | dalamar: i get 845 fps from glxgears (but i guess above a certain point that becomes meaningless?) | 04:16 |
| HappyFool | dodder: mysql is not included in the default install, i don't think | 04:16 |
| HappyFool | dodder: nor is apache2 | 04:16 |
| dalamar | HappyFool, yeah, it says 'okay' on the cedega install anout open gl rendering, yet 'failed' on 3d acceleration? .. it is only a 32 meg card also | 04:16 |
| HappyFool | dalamar: hmm. sorry, i'm not sure. never used cedega | 04:16 |

| wickedpuppy | hi guys ... seems like i got some gpg key errors for breezy when i do apt-get update | 04:18 |
| theeil | what's the gnome panel mail thing called? | 04:18 |
| HappyFool | dodder: please read the LAMP page on the wiki; it will probably help you more than i can | 04:18 |
| wickedpuppy | where can i find the keys ? | 04:18 |
| candlelight | dalamar, mine is 32mb card, on 1st run, 285~376 fps, 2nd run 210~375 fps, 3rd run all over 320 fps | 04:18 |
| dodder | HappyFool but that is what it says... to remove that line, and then just restart apache... | 04:18 |
| dodder | HappyFool, just tried that again... still nothing... :/ | 04:18 |

| MrBear | alright | 04:19 |
| HappyFool | dodder: phpmyadmin is a command-line tool? | 04:20 |
| Myrtti | no | 04:20 |
| Myrtti | browser | 04:20 |
| wickedpuppy | nope .. its a web based mysql administration | 04:20 |
| Myrtti | it's a webpage, basically | 04:20 |
| MrBear | right now I am afraid the install will not work | 04:20 |
| dodder | HappyFool, no it's not, it's a collection of php scripts, making it easy to edit your mysql tabels, and stuff :) | 04:20 |

| ompaul | MrBear, if it is a PC I suggest that you do a 'server' install when the machine comes up there is an option to type server, after that 'apt-get install ubuntu-desktop' can be a useful way to start | 05:09 |
| apokryphos | Suschman: it's in Multiverse. | 05:09 |
| MrBear | and now it wont complete the install | 05:09 |
| fblade1987 | hey guys can you tell em how esay it is too put kde onto unbutu? | 05:09 |
| MrBear | ? | 05:10 |
| apokryphos | fblade1987: sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop | 05:10 |
| apokryphos | fblade1987: one command -- I'd say that was easy. :0 | 05:10 |
| Suschman | apokryphos, are there any caveeats enabling multiverse ?? | 05:10 |

| !lilo:*! If you're experiencing problems with private message spambots, please message me. Thanks! | 07:17 | |
| h17m4n | make sure you have the .sys and .inf for your card | 07:17 |
| Maikeru | heh | 07:17 |
| Maikeru | any idea on the DWL-650 Revision P? | 07:17 |
| Maikeru | Can't get ndis to work with it | 07:17 |
| Maikeru | Bloody annoying | 07:17 |
| vegalabs | ok. the odd thing is that linux does see the card. it reports signal strength, retreives an ip address, but, doesn't actually connect. | 07:17 |
| h17m4n | ohh | 07:18 |
| vegalabs | well | 07:18 |
| zblach | you using wep encryption? | 07:18 |
| h17m4n | so dont follow that | 07:18 |
| Maikeru | Well, with my ubuntu it like doesn't recognize the card has been put in ;/ | 07:18 |
| vegalabs | during the install it can't dhcp. maybe wep has something to do with it. | 07:18 |
| h17m4n | you probably need to input your wep key | 07:18 |
| zblach | and set mode to open, if appliccable | 07:18 |
| Maikeru | The card gets power sent to it (the activity light lights up), but I don't think it knows that a card is in there ;/ | 07:18 |
| vegalabs | yeah, i have provided the ssid and wep keys. no dice. | 07:18 |

| Zotnix | http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php?content=26757 | 07:49 |
| Zotnix | Where I got the theme | 07:49 |
| djur | Is there a USB keyboard module that I can put into /etc/modules ? | 07:49 |
| Whistler | totem-xine plays avi files but it cant find plugin for a specific avi file | 07:49 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | thanx | 07:49 |
| Alcor_ | lakcaj: its a laptop and i can hear it tries very hard to mount. Maybe the cdrom is sata and no support for it ? | 07:49 |
| funkyHat | Zotnix, am i correct about clearlooks not working on hoary? | 07:49 |
| funkyHat | or was it something specific to that clearlooks theme? and just me for the rest of them? ;) | 07:49 |

| ChurcH_of_FoamY | yea mostly usb 2.0 hubs and a few 2.0 cards by belkin | 08:26 |
| FibreOptic | 526: yeah. it's always best to plug tempeamental things like that on a direct line, free of any external hubs | 08:26 |

| bur[n] er | so can xp | 08:54 |

| stoeptegel | tristanmike: i know psi can :) | 11:37 |
| moomindaddy | ah fixed | 11:37 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | tristanmike why would you use google talk in gaim? | 11:37 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | tristanmike google talk uses closed jabber servers. | 11:37 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | google is also one of the most evil companies next to m$ | 11:37 |
| tristanmike | BROKEN_LADDER, ummm, because there is no google talk for linux? | 11:37 |
| DVSoftware | tristanmike: any jabber client will do | 11:37 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | tristanmike why would you use google talk? | 11:37 |
| moomindaddy | dont spose any of you have tried ultima online in ubuntu? | 11:38 |
| moomindaddy | (with wine etc) | 11:38 |
| stoeptegel | i've a problem: azureus keeps complaining for write access, how do i automaticly give azureus 775 permissions? | 11:38 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | tristanmike you can just get an open account on a real jabber server. | 11:38 |
| Maikeru | yay | 11:38 |
| Maikeru | my wireless connection works | 11:38 |
| Gnonthgol | Anyone know what grumpy and perky repos. are? | 11:38 |
| Maikeru | so time to fix it >:) | 11:38 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | tristanmike and if you want free voip, just get linphone which supports _sip_ | 11:38 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | the real standard for voip | 11:38 |
| tristanmike | BROKEN_LADDER, I'm lost dude, I've just used MSN and Yahoo my whole life, I'm still uber-new | 11:38 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | that you can use to call real hard sip phones. | 11:38 |
| Gnonthgol | BROKEN_LADDER: or just use skype | 11:38 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | no. | 11:38 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | skype is bad | 11:38 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | skype does not support open standards. | 11:39 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | skype will die, the question is when. | 11:39 |
| DVSoftware | Laughing out loud | 11:39 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | until it dies it will just slow the adoption of real standards. | 11:39 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | once sip has pervaded the market, there will be no need for skype. | 11:39 |
| Gnonthgol | BROKEN_LADDER: skype is smart and sells skype out etc. | 11:39 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | i have an sip phone on my desk. | 11:39 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | call it with skype. | 11:39 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | oh wait, you can't. | 11:39 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | but you can call it with linphone. | 11:40 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | tristanmike google talk just uses the jabber standard. | 11:40 |
| kemik | #ubuntu-offtopic perhaps? | 11:40 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | tristanmike you can get a free jabber account on jabber80.com or jabber.org for instance, that will work with any other open jabber servers. | 11:40 |

| BROKEN_LADDER | tristanmike with google talk, you can only chat with jabber users that are on google talk. | 11:41 |
| mcrandello | you get anything to run on it without throwing unhandled exception errors? | 11:41 |
| tristanmike | BROKEN_LADDER, I just wanna chat with my friends on my MSN list, boo hoo | 11:41 |
| tristanmike | lol | 11:41 |
| NitroBoy | hey | 11:41 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | tristanmike you could just put your google talk account in and then get a "real" jabber acocunt too, so you have both. | 11:41 |

| NitroBoy | its a pretty popular problem i guess | 11:42 |
| NitroBoy | but how do i add unlisted resolutions | 11:42 |
| NitroBoy | it will only allow it to set upto 1024x768 | 11:42 |
| NitroBoy | and i did add the refrates for my monitor | 11:42 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | tristanmike your msn account will work in gaim. | 11:43 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | tristanmike make sure you install off-the-record messaging. | 11:43 |
| tristanmike | yay, I have a new error telling me the MSN servers are temporatily unavailable. | 11:43 |

| BROKEN_LADDER | http://www.cypherpunks.ca/otr/ | 11:43 |
| tristanmike | BROKEN_LADDER, off-the-record? | 11:43 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | tristanmike perhaps. | 11:43 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | tristanmike it's encryption plus deniable authentication and perfect forward secrecy. | 11:43 |
| tristanmike | plugin? | 11:44 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | it's _the_ encryption plugin. | 11:44 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | yup. | 11:44 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | how can i make my system use the right sound modules for my card? | 11:44 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | i did an apt-get upgrade and now sound doesn'n work, and the loaded modules look wrong | 11:44 |
| tristanmike | I don't have the plugin | 11:45 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | isn't there something like slackware's rc.modules that i can look at and find the right line to uncomment? | 11:45 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | tristanmike you get it. | 11:45 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | either via apt-get or just download the source and compile it. | 11:45 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | it's easy. | 11:45 |
