If you do, use sudo ifconfig your-ip dev eth0 up [03:43] blun: download the official stable release CD and install that [03:43] Blunted, if you decide to use the downloaded CD, you'd probably get the best speeds if you use a torrent [03:43] Blunted: It depends if you have information to save.

[03:44] OokiiNiku: Often times the DHCP servers give you the same IP every time, if your MAC address does not change [03:44] thoreauputic: Is it? I know a few people were having problems. Probably just down to how busy it was. [03:44] OokiiNiku - the key, I think, is to establish whether you have a hardware problem or a network problem. If you can assign a static IP address and see the network, that would pretty much eliminate your local box, cable run, etc. [03:44] well i don't know what that ipaddress would be this computer is new to the server....

[10:25] da_bon_bon: thanks [10:25] OK, I'm getting annoyed now.. xorg says my card is supported by nvidia-legacy drivers. I've already installed the nvidia-legacy package. I'm modprobing the driver. It's showing up in dmesg and lsmod, but when I try to start xorg with 'nvidia' instead of 'nv' it won't go.

Release.gpg is the signature for Release, which has the md5sums for Packages, which have the md5sums for individual packages - so unless you can sign packages using the ubuntu key, you can't get a tainted package installed.

[10:27] dooglus: Well, when not using md5 but something more secure (like brentdax suggests) it would work. [10:27] bjron, there is one marked rest of europe and they go for records, like most days they move more than kernel.org :) [10:27] bjron, in .ie heanet [10:27] GNULinuxer: does a cold boot work instead of a warm boot?

[11:12] Ah, mythtv is in multiverse === michux [n=borys@213.241.34.210] has joined #ubuntu === khwarizmi [n=krischan@p54B82920.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #ubuntu [11:12] karjala, no, it was easier just to reinstall ubuntu from scratch, I usually keep /home on its own partition [11:12] moogman: yes. [11:12] Got a question about the Evolution 2.4 - I'm using the Exchange Connector and I'm missing this little red Exchange button on the bottom left (near contacts, etc...) where I can edit my Favorite Directories on the Exchange Server. Any idea? [11:13] moogman: It uses the SQL server to store program data and configuration === otep is now known as otep[half-zzz] [11:13] moogman: and it's split into front and back end - the front-end can run on a different box, it just accesses the backend and database. [11:13] moogman: you can even run multiple front ends [11:13] ccooke: Indeed. It's not a huge problem. I'll probably use SQL for something else too [11:14] ccooke: Hmm, that is interesting. Does the backend contain all the TV decoder logic? === bigfoot1 [n=hideseek@FLH1Abq053.fko.mesh.ad.jp] has joined #ubuntu [11:14] moogman: yep. [11:14] moogman: and the recording code, too [11:14] Such that I could install the TV card in my server and then just pipe it over the network? [11:14] moogman: yep. [11:14] moogman: I do that at home [11:15] I can't format my floppy I keep getting density value 0 or device not found === BeTa_ [n=beta@81.56.158.124] has joined #ubuntu [11:15] moogman: 802.11b is *just* too low bandwidth for the video. But 802.11g is perfect. [11:15] ccooke: Ah nice. I've got sqld running on server anyway, so I guess thats the best solution. Thank you. [11:15] moogman: with the DVB card, you may be able to avoid encoding the video, too [11:15] I can't format my floppy I keep getting density value 0 or device not found... but I can mount the floppy and browse [11:15] Seveas: is it possible to play realmedia files without installing the realplayer? === quam [n=chris@user-1120g2d.dsl.mindspring.com] has joined #ubuntu [11:15] how can I reboot if "sudo reboot" doesn't work? === BeTa_ is now known as BeTa [11:16] dooglus: yes; mplayer + w32codecs will do it. [11:16] ccooke: Yeah, it comes through as MPEG-2, so it'd just have to decrypt it and write to disk I imagine. [11:16] dooglus, yeah, it works for me with mplaeyer+w32codecs [11:16] moogman: oh - and you can plug as many tv sources into mythtv as you have CPU power for. [11:16] Da_SWAT, sudo -s " reboot" [11:16] Seveas: do you have "avisynth.dll" anywhere? [11:16] whats the fastest mirror right now for US residents? [11:16] I'll try thnx abhayks [11:16] sudo /sbin/reboot might work [11:16] moogman: only one frontend or recording process can have one video input at any one time, of course. However, if you're recording something any number of frontends can stream it [11:17] zcat[1] : I tried mplayer + w32codecs - no go - can't find avisynth.dll === karjala [n=karjala@84.254.15.40] has joined #ubuntu [11:17] ccooke: My server is only a 700MHz Duron, but I'm eventually hoping to make a nice DVB box for the living room. === vishoek__ [n=chatzill@wbs-146-132-210.telkomadsl.co.za] has joined #ubuntu === vishoek__ is now known as vishoek === smartbhai [n=smartbha@202.83.43.124] has joined #ubuntu === Jacko [n=Jacko115@203-173-160-154.bliink.ihug.co.nz] has joined #ubuntu [11:17] why I try to mount I get this message sam@ubuntu:~$ sudo mount /dev/fd0 /media/fd0 mount: mount point /media/fd0 does not exist [11:17] sudo init 6 should also work [11:17] moogman: takes a *little* work to get the channels sorted out (the backend config). Mostly it's very easy. The frontend just asks you for language and DB location, and then just works. === khwarizmi [n=krischan@p54B82920.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #ubuntu [11:18] hi people .. i cant install ubuntu amd64 onto a machine with sata hard disk [11:18] sorush20: you have to "sudo mkdir /media/fd0" if that's where you want it mounted === twilight [n=twilight@host214-116.pool8251.interbusiness.it] has joined #ubuntu [11:18] ccooke: Yeah, I've just used scan and tzap for the channels.conf dump. I think Myth can work with that. [11:18] abhayks, it doesn't work. (cant execute binary file) [11:18] I upgraded to breezy via apt-get and it never asked me for a reboot, is that normal? [11:18] hi people .. i cant install ubuntu amd64 onto a machine with sata hard disk [11:18] moogman: Getting the channels right is more or less difficult depending on where you live. It's annoying in the UK, but doable. [11:18] it says not mountable device found [11:18] segosa: you need to reboot to get the new kernel running [11:19] anyone know how to get the window menu in konqueror and the konsole window inside konqueror as they don't seem to be there. Just installed the new Kubuntu === axl [n=axl@100.242.216.81.h-borg.siwnet.net] has joined #ubuntu [11:19] dooglus: but it won't specifically ask me, right? okay [11:19] ccooke: Yeah, I've done it before with warty+tzap+mplayer+lots of pain, so I have a channel listing with frequencies somewhere [11:19] Jacko, try #kubuntu [11:19] segosa: once you've installed breezy, it gets better at nagging... [11:19] moogman: sensible! [11:19] cheer === Jacko [n=Jacko115@203-173-160-154.bliink.ihug.co.nz] has left #ubuntu ["Kopete] [11:19] does it nag over the commandline? it's a server install :p [11:20] doesn't matter anyway, being rebooted now [11:20] How can I set up my sound to play sound from mulitple sources? [11:20] dooglus: it does it in the /media/fd0, === stevejesus [n=stevejes@user-0cdv0cv.cable.mindspring.com] has joined #ubuntu [11:20] im trying sudo apt-cache search mplayer, and it doesnt seem to be working [11:20] ccooke: using "scan" is a no-brainer, as you just select e.g. uk-Mendip (which comes as part of the package), and it'll do the scanning for you, so you just > channels.conf :) [11:20] Hi guys! [11:20] does anyone know if/why the 'nvidia-legacy' packages don't actually install the nvidia-legacy drivers? [11:21] Or how to get nvidia-legacy drivers installed short of downloading and building a whole new kernel? [11:21] Longtime Fedora user seeks shoulder to cry on [11:21] zcat[1] , its probably just a transition package [11:21] "couldnt find package mplayer" when i try and apt-get [11:21] (this is for hoary) [11:21] how can I force a reboot? (sudo reboot) doesn't work? [11:21] moogman: hmm. I'll try it when Iget around to grabbing a DVB input [11:22] Da_SWAT, try halt [11:22] bah, I want my GL!! [11:22] ccooke: Ah yeah sorry, forgot you said about !DVB. === jacek [n=j@213.235.152.78] has joined #ubuntu [11:22] Da_SWAT: "sudo /sbin/reboot" [11:22] Da_SWAT: what do you mean reboot doesn't work? [11:22] segosa: aah.. when you guys tell me "mplayer + w32codecs", which mplayer package do you mean? I use "mplayer-nogui" - could that be the difference? [11:22] o_O [11:23] moogman: I'm just using a TV card plugged into the cable box. Which requires an external IR device to change channel... [11:23] Guys is there a problem with the repo site [11:23] moogman: *that* took a little work to set up [11:23] so, can anyone aid me in my transition from Fedora? I used Fedora since FC1. I am very familiar with it. Most things carry over, but there are some things I cannot triumph here. [11:23] zcat[1] ,GNULinuxer I do a "sudo reboot" and it gives the message that it WILL reboot, but it just doesn't. I guess it hangs somewhere [11:23] can anyone help? [11:23] ccooke: FYI, I've got the WinTV DVB card. Ubuntu loads the cx88 module for me. [11:23] Da_SWAT: and you get a blank screen? [11:23] ccooke: Yeah, I'll probably be back asking about my remote in a few hours :) [11:23] hmm what all is on the DVD of Breezy? [11:23] GNULinuxer, not even. It's all intact :( [11:24] moogman: heh. lirc is marginally difficult to get working. [11:24] Da_SWAT: are you using a laptop? [11:24] nope, desktop [11:24] I suppose not. [11:24] thanks anyhow === etnoy [n=etnoy@227.236.216.81.vs.vf.siwnet.net] has joined #ubuntu [11:24] stevejesus, Be more spesific... What are you trying to do and do not know how? [11:24] I think it has something to do with the fact that my apt-get dist-upgrade didn't work (it also hung) [11:24] why my breezy installation stops at testing network repository ?? [11:24] Da_SWAT: a similar thing happens with my laptop ... everything is shut down, but it never reboots ... i have to switch if off manually and switch on again [11:25] Oh I know what I am doing. If i could just find out whats going on with this multiverse repo, I would be golden. [11:25] Belutz: the repos are hammered [11:25] GNULinuxer, damn, taht sucks [11:25] ccooke: Haha, just mashed my remote. Turns out that the "power" button on remote brings up the Ubuntu shutdown screen. Useful... [11:25] I am fresh meat to ubuntu so I dont know where it is, and why its directories seems to be empty [11:25] Belutz: its because everyone is downloading and updating... it will finish eventually though [11:25] Da_SWAT: yes, the dist-upgrade was messy ... but i fixed it somehow ... [11:25] Ky0tIk, well then, the installer should skip the process [11:25] Da_SWAT: now I need to fix the reboot issue [11:25] Belutz: it wont skip because its essential to the install [11:26] moogman: moogman ... what sort of remote is it? [11:26] GNULinuxer, what would the halt command do? [11:26] Ky0tIk, what if I installed it in a non-network computer? [11:26] I began the ubuntu journey last night, and I still havent gotten to a point where Im ready to untar my home dir from Fedora [11:26] Da_SWAT: halt will shut down but won't switch off the power i guess === HeavyD^ [n=ds@ti131310a080-15718.bb.online.no] has joined #ubuntu [11:26] I cant get my sound working, can anyone help? [11:26] stevejesus: what's the problem you're seeing? [11:26] Da_SWAT: halt -p will do that [11:27] Renski: there are a bunch of different packages [11:27] ccooke: Holy crap. Volume control buttons bring up a Ubuntu volume control, and some button opens my CD drive haha [11:27] Belutz: it will install the base and the few packages on your system if it doesnt detect a network connection.. i am pretty sure of this anyway.. [11:27] ccooke: I'm using hte one that comes with the DVB card [11:27] Does anyone know anything about that? [11:27] moogman: ahhhh. Then the DVB driver may do it. [11:27] mplayer-386 mplayer-586 mplayer-686 mplayer-custom mplayer-doc mplayer-fonts mplayer-k6 mplayer-k7 mplayer-nogui [11:27] good morning peeps, scsi scan: 96 byte inquiry failed. consider BLIST_INQUIRY_36 for this device. Um... USB keyboard and mouse. all were ok on the hoary kernel. ho hum. [11:27] stevejesus: your wanting to use the home directory you had in fedora on ubuntu? [11:27] stevejesus: about what? What's your actual problem? [11:28] Ky0tIk, well then i'll installed it without the network first, after it installed, i choose the mirror [11:28] GNULinuxer, I'm just trying /sbin/reboot -f..... forcing it to do my bidding [11:28] Im sorry, maybe you missed some of that. My home dir is inconcequential haha. [11:28] my problem is repos [11:28] What problem are you having with the repositories? [11:28] stevejesus: the repos are giving a lot of peeps problems [11:28] (Just call me Eliza) [11:28] you'd have to modify your sources.list [11:29] I installed ubuntu breezy badger last night having no clue that it was just released. Which is always a bad idea [11:29] no === Jedrick [n=mataks@203.177.245.213] has joined #ubuntu [11:29] breezy is very stable [11:29] At least... in my experience [11:29] stevejesus: no, released means it's stable.

I dont know either [11:31] thats why Im here [11:31] ccooke: Thanks for your help. I'll probably be back after. BTW, do you know the default password for the mythtv user offhand? [11:31] backports are like a crutch for hoary in my opinion [11:31] I honestly dont care so much which version I am running. I just need to get some packages from the restricted repos [11:31] breezy is very very good right now === athlon [n=athlon@174pc.wohnheimg.uni-frankfurt.de] has joined #ubuntu [11:31] stevejesus: install a fresh breezy ;) [11:32] i have been using breezy for about 2 months now [11:32] and its been very reliable even in those times before it was released [11:32] well, kemik, I already did, but I couldnt get to any packages I needed [11:32] much much more than RHEL4 [11:32] Any Apache guys here?

I never had any trouble getting packages in Fedora for whatever I needed. But I cant get much of anything so far in ubuntu [11:34] npiv: or are you trying to "sudo" when logged in as root ?

[11:42] how did you people get it to work? [11:42] !find avisynth.dll [11:42] but "captive" uses MS' own NTFS driver DLL so it provides a way around this limitaton [11:43] stevejesus: start out with synaptic if you wish its the GUI apt interface.. its pretty good.. plus it lets you modify your sources.list in a GUI fashion if you prefer that.. [11:43] i dont prefer GUI's [11:43] no use [11:43] ok then just use vi [11:43] :D [11:43] at least for package management [11:43] Ky0tIk: vi/vim is the way to go :) [11:43] ky0tik, hmmm. should i wait for a while, and then upgrade?

[11:54] is there a way of getting the ubuntu version from the command line? like 'cat /etc/redhat-release' on a deadrat box? [11:54] it takes user interaction, right. that's not even the same ballpark as "linux viruses don't exist" [11:54] stevejesus: dont use DCC chat...
