XD i mostly just surf the internet and chat with people. [12:58] lightbright: yes I already installed all 12 files [12:58] angelp: i have 3 partitions on my computer with 20gb. I have 6 or so to Windows, Breezy, and Dapper [12:59] I already had that installed lightbright, since I installed ubuntu [12:59] ajulius: that's not the philosophy for stable releases [12:59] ajulius: really?

Is there any way to do a thing like that? To "upgrade" from Debian to Ubuntu? [12:59] ecobuntu: so i just resize it to whatever i want, then . . . click on "unallocated" and make a new partition? [12:59] angelp: 10 is a nice number cause the OS is about 2gb and you have 8gb to play with [12:59] blanky: IF you indeed didnt skip anything becayse you thought it was already installed, it will now work [01:00] dylan_: you're "losing" the opportunity to do a lot of hand configuration. [01:00] blanky: but if you skipped anything I said because you assumed it was already on system it wont work :) [01:00] Brunellus, but im not losing out on not learning linux? [01:00] yeah it's already installed bud, I checked in synaptic as well [01:00] versus gentoo, you are also "losing" the joy of waiting days for stuff to compile [01:00] no no, I made sure bud === GreedyB [n=blah@69-161-11-85.chvlva.adelphia.net] has joined #ubuntu [01:00] is there any advice people have on getting an external usb wlan device to work? i'm just plugging through what google gives me, but it's trying because i don't know if ndiswrapper will work or if i should try something else [01:00] angelp: yup i believe so [01:00] tritium: yeah thats what I thought too [01:00] kinda funny the largest channels are Ubuntu and Debian [01:00] dylan_: linux is really linux. how much you learn depends on you, rather than your distribution, really [01:00] lightbright: so I run totem now right? [01:00] ecobuntu thx. is it going to take al ong time; should ic lose my other programs? [01:00] angelp: or you could just resize it and leavethat extra space for a ubuntu installation and set up the partition then [01:00] Brunellus, how is that? [01:00] blanky: because it will delete Totem and install xine-totem [01:00] tdn, i do not think so :(. [01:00] GreedyB: why? [01:00] angelp: probably best to...how long will it take? [01:00] you can learn as much or as little as you want. all the same tools are available on ubuntu... [01:01] blanky: did you notice it said removing Totem? [01:01] er, when I run xine-totem from command line it doesnt work [01:01] but ubuntu does make a lot of tasks less time-consuming, like package management [01:01] blanky: yeah, IF you indeed didnt skip anything becayse you thought it was already installed, it will now work [01:01] cause they are similar [01:01] ecobuntu: yeah, to resize the first one and then make the new one, how long will that take [01:01] blanky: co menu [01:01] apt automatically resolves dependencies, which is a huge timesaver. [01:01] GreedyB: there the two best distributions that's why :) [01:01] Brunellus, yes, that is if the debian servers dont crash and lose all their dataq [01:01] just got Fluxbox up and running the other day..i love it [01:01] yeah I know [01:01] blanky: sound/video/totem [01:01] soo customizable..its like too much freedom [01:01] dylan_ I'm not expecting the world to end [01:01] angelp: i don't know, it shouldn't take too long [01:01] blanky: soundvideo/totem music player [01:01] ecobuntu, ok; thanks for helping :D [01:01] and even if they did, you'd still have all the GNU tools to build stuff yourself [01:02] it would just take time [01:02] blanky: dont tell me you cant even load Totem :P [01:02] but you said it'd be removed, also, in synaptic the totem dummy package is instlaled, but it's a dummy package so Im guessing it's not actual totem, so yeah totem-xine is installed [01:02] Brunellus, lol [01:02] lightbright: yeah I know how to [01:02] no problem...any time you have a question this is the place to come :) [01:02] blanky: are you new to computers?

[01:04] (look above for error) [01:04] blanky: rofl [01:04] dont worry I'll figure it out, thanks [01:04] tdn, the packages are not the same on both distros you can end up with an unusable system. in warty it was possible iirci but not in breezy [01:04] dylan_: yes, but I would also have a less useable system and a lot more headaches. I actually *use* my computer for daily life and other things. Linux isn't an end-in-itself all the time. [01:04] but yeah, I'm still sure I must register libdvdcss somehow [01:04] hmm, ive got xmss and it plays mp3s... but gxine doesnt... ;-( they dont share codecs?

[01:52] crimsun, where do we find the vlc backport [01:52] lightbright: You don't want to copy /usr if you reinstall.

[01:54] lightbright, to mantain everything almost as you have it? yes [01:54] SEJeff: I have hda3 as /home. but and if my hda1 crashes or gets wiped, I can reinstall breeze and have system run as before? Yet I would lose all new apps that I had installed? [01:54] jrsims, open system-preferences-themes, and drag the downloaded theme onto the window [01:54] Ok! [01:54] lightbright: You would lose all additional apps you installed before, yes [01:54] lightbright: But the main system doesn't change much [01:54] SEJeff: hmm ok thanks [01:54] nickrud, so if i uncheck the backports, i won't be missing out on any package repositories? [01:54] so what exactly does the DVD.iso include? can't be all of universe can it?

"ALSA lib seq_hw.c:455:(snd_seq_hw_open) open /dev/snd/seq failed: No such file or directory" [01:55] SEJeff: I guess I could make a folder and rsync the whole drive to it as backup :) [01:55] so I can't change that drive to where I can write to it?

[02:00] nickrud: ps? [02:00] lightbright, power supply [02:00] Sanne -- so then whats the diff between Ubuntu-Server and normal ubuntu?? [02:00] thank you [02:00] nickrud: well if that happens either way you are gone :) [02:00] i think this is because no monitor is detected at boot, and therefore ubuntu uses failsafe settings [02:00] nickrud: even sbackup wont help you then [02:00] I apologize. I can't find what ubotu wrote [02:00] how can i get VNC server to give me a 1280x1024 desktop? [02:00] lightbright, no, sbackup can arrange for writing backups to a dvd/cd overnight.

[02:03] sudo aptitude install linux-k7 [02:03] then reboot [02:03] ok [02:03] thank you, [02:03] nickrud: i have 3 hard drives! 1 is internal and other 2 that can be pulled out of front of system unit! So I can rsync by whole hda to hdb, and then place my other hard drive in and then copy hdb to hda! then pull out and put in original hda :) and store the other one in my drawrer :) ahh i like that idea :) [02:03] so any ideas about setting res for ubuntu when no monitor is connected?

[08:01] did you try running the installer and when it asks for the other cd use eject and see if you can change them ? [08:01] mlalkaka: I used to do that with supermount, but in ubuntu that would require a kernel patch [08:02] intelikey: linux won't let you eject a mounted cd [08:02] Chippendale 'man ssh ' [08:02] and it won't let you umount an in-use cd [08:02] trappist eject umounts them. [08:02] mlalkaka: iirc there are some good docs about multi-cd games on transgaming.com [08:03] mlalkaka: last I read about it, transgaming recommended supermount, but I think there are other solutions [08:03] trappist, why doesn't the osdl make supermount an official module in the kernel? it's a useful feature, in my opinion. [08:03] trappist that's odd then all the linux distros that mount a cd start installing their distro then ask for the next disk and spit the first one out are doing what exactly ?

[08:05] random simpsons quotes! [08:05] intelikey: ram disk or hd, the point is the code isn't running from the cd, which is why it can be umounted. not the case with windows games.

I run apt-file update and it asks for a CDROM [08:14] mlalkaka: it might not work at all, choudesh smbfs: usr/bin/smbmount [08:14] (that's the mainloop gtk uses so you can you both in one app without them blocking each other) [08:14] gah, oops [08:14] Amaranth, there really needs to be some unification...

[08:37] mbs: if it's a real raid card, ubuntu doesn't know or care about the arry [08:37] DShepherd: you don't. linux doesn't poll for that. but there are daemons out there that will do it for you. [08:37] DShepherd: It's in System->Preferences [08:37] blanky, i'm not sure but i really love SLAX. best part is, if you don't like the defaults, you can always remaster it. :) [08:37] oh, was I wrong? [08:37] distros should start the install with 'man man ' and only go on if you read it....... :) [08:38] mbs: if it's new, you need to set it up in advance, yes [08:38] bob2, so it should show just one logical device by the time ubuntu gets to it?

[08:38] x0rrrz: you can do it two ways... add the users to your system and when they login they will go to their home directory - or - you can create proftpd style directory tree with a custom password file just for proftpd, then the users can't access the system they can only access ftp [08:38] kelbizzle, Like how? The software, or an actuall cd burner? [08:38] DShepherd: don't listen to me. I was apparently misinformed. [08:38] mbs: assuming you're producing a single raid-5 or whatever volume out of the bunch of disks (which is the most common option I'd think) [08:38] bob2, gotcha, we're in the scsi select utility ... is that what we need to use normally or is there an aditional util people (adaptec) normally provide to do setup?

[09:16] can I shrink in linux though. [09:16] tehidiot, I'm assuming that your Windows program is compressing it somehow. [09:16] i'd assume that also. [09:16] now what should I do -_- [09:16] tehidiot, it's probably removing the sound tracks it doesn't (other langages) [09:16] +need [09:17] transcode and mencoder should both be capable. the commands needed to do so are akin to black magic however.

[09:19] Yeah [09:19] Hmmm [09:19] Then it sounds like some type of compression, or a different method of ripping [09:19] I would use DVDShrink in Linux but they don't make wine for the amd64 binary [09:19] Well is there anyway to compress the files in LInux? [09:19] i have the files on a drive.

[11:30] n0dl: nothing more than an X server, i think [11:31] nishiroyato, it's probably easier from the command line, but if you do file/advanced, and then search, you will find the kernel source in the GUI [11:31] sethk: "linux-source" is the package name [11:31] in that case, i need a good lesson on installing packages. are packages the form in which programs come? [11:31] or are packages part of the kernel compiling? [11:31] LjL: hmm thats awkward i wonder why it doesnt pop up [11:31] LjL, thanks [11:31] nishiroyato, in this case, both [11:32] n0dl: what are you typing? [11:32] can i use my gmai account in evolution mail [11:32] nishiroyato, the kernel source is a package, just like anything else you might install [11:32] nishiroyato, although, unlike a program, you install the kernel source so that you can build it, rather than run it. [11:32] nishiroyato: yeah packages are the *preferred* form for getting programs in Ubuntu [11:32] LjL: i type startx [11:32] n0dl: try "startx xterm" [11:32] LjL: then i left click and try clicking on terminal emulator [11:32] ij [11:32] ok [11:32] brb [11:32] LjL: Installed it, and typed "X" it stopped giving error "Couldn not init font path element..." ... "Could not open default font 'fixed';" and also: People inexperienced with the X Window System (that me) should have the "x-window-system" or "x-window-system-core" packages installed." [11:33] are packages te tbz or tar or bz2 files ive downloaded? === fatejudger [n=fatejudg@c-67-169-146-139.hsd1.ca.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu === Khaaaaan [i=Zod@69-161-97-187.bflony.adelphia.net] has joined #ubuntu [11:33] nishiroyato, no === Katsumoto [n=teraflop@bbned225-210-100.dsl.hccnet.nl] has joined #ubuntu [11:33] nishiroyato, those are usually source code archives. The package manager doesn't know about them. [11:33] is there a way to play Quicktime 7 movies using either xine or gstreamer? [11:33] Hi, i'm trying to play a DVD with mplayer but it gived the error "Can't read VGM info!" [11:33] anyone know why? [11:33] nishiroyato, I frequently use those to build, but when you do, remember that the package manager doesn't know about what you've built and installed that way. [11:33] Marlun: do that ;-) although i think in this case you should probably install "x-window-system", not the "-core" one... yes it will install a little bit more things, i assume, but i have a feeling it will save you from a lot of trouble [11:33] is the package manager unique to ubuntu or a general linux thing? [11:34] nishiroyato: most linux distributions have some form of packaging [11:34] nishiroyato: ...though they tend to be different programs and file formats [11:34] nishiroyato: the two main systems used nowadays are RPM (from RedHat, now used by Fedora and Mandriva for example) and APT (from Debian, now used in Ubuntu, Mepis and others) [11:34] anyone know why Mplayer says "Can't read VGM info!" when I try to play a DVD? === n0dl [n=n0dl@pool-71-104-33-141.lsanca.dsl-w.verizon.net] has joined #ubuntu [11:34] hmm, so if there isnt an ubuntu package for the linuxwacom driver, im shit out? [11:35] LjL: a terminal showed up but it froze X [11:35] nishiroyato: note that, even though the packaging system is the same as Debian's, you *should not* install Debian packages or use Debian repositories in Ubuntu [11:35] LjL: you can install some deb packages [11:35] nishiroyato: Naw, you can compile one if you need it, it just tends to leave the system kinda messy [11:35] i have a newly installed 5.10 ubuntu distro.. but i can't get the internet working.. i have specified the DNS and i have set it up for static ip.. it's a wlan btw.. but when i try to ping the router it replies destination host unreachable.. any one here that can help me? [11:35] LjL: do you think i have to install all the X11 files? [11:36] what about preparing source code into an ubuntu friendly package? [11:36] LjL: hmm does not seem to work. "No candidate version found for x-window-system" === Khaaaaan [i=Zod@69-161-97-187.bflony.adelphia.net] has joined #ubuntu [11:36] n0dl: X didn't freeze, i think, it just didn't start your OpenBox. "startx xterm" just start X with an xterm, and nothing else. for running it inside OpenBox, i think you should find a "run program" or "execute command" (or something) menu, and type "xterm" there, if the default "Terminal emulator" button doesn't work [11:36] n0dl: the "Terminal emulator" button is probably looking for some *different* terminal that is not xterm, i think [11:36] nishiroyato: You can do that, though doing kernel stuff in debian packages is a pain (I've done it before) [11:36] nishiroyato, the programs to create the ubuntu (debian) packages are all available to install on your ubuntu system, and they are quite good [11:36] LjL: so what exactly do you want me to do? [11:36] n0dl: what X11 files don't you have installed? [11:36] anyone here make metacity themes? i'm modding one, and one thing won't work :/ === vbgunz [n=vbgunz@uslec-66-255-127-2.cust.uslec.net] has joined #ubuntu [11:37] LjL: just the base and xterm thats it [11:37] linux is confusing to the point where i dont even know where to start [11:37] nishiroyato: It's usually easier to just build the module and put it in the directory, then delete/re-build it when you upgrade to a newer kernel [11:37] n0dl: and openbox, i suppose? [11:37] nishiroyato, then for now use the packages that ubuntu provides [11:37] LjL: yes [11:37] anybody here use devilspie? [11:37] should install the other X11 files? [11:37] nishiroyato, one big advantage of ubuntu here is that the package manager takes care of a lot of these details for you, which makes it easier to learn. Then you can go back later and figure out the rest. [11:38] anyone know why Mplayer says "Can't read VGM info!" when I try to play a DVD? I have the libdvdcss2 installed, but for some reason it wont play? [11:38] Marlun: hmm that's true. but "-core" is there. but, before trying "-core", i think you should give "sudo aptitude install xorg-common" a try [11:38] okay. then, mounting my OSX drive aside, my first goal Id like to accomplish is turning this linuxwacom driver source code into a ubuntu package [11:38] LjL: hehe ok :P [11:38] sethk: may I ask you a question? I might have overlooked it *but* does Synaptioc provide a history? A history of applications I manually installed? [11:38] LjL: should i install the other X11 files? [11:39] vbgunz, it maintains the database through which you can find out what has been installed. I'm not sure about whether it can tell you exactly when you installed it. [11:39] whats the best torrent client for linix [11:39] *linux [11:39] n0dl: i'm really not sure what "other X11" files you're thinking about. what i think, anyway, is that you should simply look up on OpenBox's manual how to start arbitrary programs, or how to add them to the programs menu (assuming OpenBox has one) [11:39] nishiroyato, you have to do a kernel build for that also, as we said earlier. So install the kernel source package. [11:40] nishiroyato, LjL told you the package name [11:40] How do I mount USB? [11:40] LjL: Nothing about "no candidate" but the same packages was "kept back" as when i tried the x-window-system. (4 not upgraded) [11:40] sethk: not when I installed *but* everything I manually installed? I installed a few things... some stuff I probably don't even use... Would like to track them down and do away with them... I currently use debfoster *but* am curious if maybe Synaptic provides a sort of history view... [11:40] LjL: and nothing was installed === Exposure` [n=exposure@a80-126-234-67.adsl.xs4all.nl] has joined #ubuntu [11:40] Marlun: note that i'm always saying "aptitude", and i advise you to actually use it, as with "aptitude" you'll be able to easily remove anything that's not really needed -- if you use apt-get, that will be harder [11:40] sudo aptitude install linux-source right? [11:41] How do I mount my usb jumpdrive? [11:41] Marlun: hmm? what's being kept back? [11:41] vbgunz, by manually, you mean with apt-get at the command line? [11:41] nishiroyato: yes [11:41] Marlun: do a "sudo apt-get update" [11:41] LjL: yeah I was actually going to ask about that :P but I've been using aptitude. === Khaaaaan [i=Zod@69-161-97-187.bflony.adelphia.net] has joined #ubuntu [11:42] sethk: either way... I instinctively look for it *but* maybe over look it... It's unusual such a nice application doesn't at least keep track of the things *I installed*... Do you understand? [11:42] Marlun: with aptitude, if you install package A and that in turns installs package B, package B will be automatically removed when you remove package A (unless, of course, there is some other package C that also wants B) [11:42] LjL: kept back: libgnutls11, libssl0.9.7, sudo, wget [11:42] error 'could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable) [11:42] Darn I just accidentally installed X-Chat when I meant to install X Chat 2 :( [11:42] How do I mount my usb jumpdrive? [11:42] can i get help with a torrent client [11:42] LjL: ah okey, thanks :) [11:42] somerville32: plug it in and it should be recognized [11:42] i need one [11:42] Marlun: "sudo apt-get update" and then "sudo aptitude dist-upgrade". i think you just need some updated packages from the Net [11:42] watnu: Where would it be mounted to? [11:43] gfish: GnomeTorrent is included by default, for downloading [11:43] nishiroyato: close Synaptic or whatever installer you have open [11:43] yep, that did it [11:43] somerville32: in /media/usb === Manuka [n=ebr26@132.181.7.1] has joined #ubuntu [11:43] I think it might be becuase I'm using xfce4 [11:43] i love how willing linux is to connect to some server and grab files [11:43] LjL: not it seemed to update all of those that was kept back before. [11:43] How I manually mount it? [11:44] Marlun: not=now? [11:44] does every distrobution maintain such a server? [11:44] anyone know why Mplayer says "Can't read VGM info!" when I try to play a DVD? I have the libdvdcss2 installed, but for some reason it wont play? [11:44] somerville32: just plug it in [11:44] LjL: yeah [11:44] Marlun: try again installing xorg-common, and if that doesn't give you a working X, then go and install x-window-system-core [11:44] watnu: It is now plugged in and not mounted [11:45] Marlun: if xorg-common installs, try running /etc/init.d/gdm start again [11:45] LjL: the common thing didn't install anything, tried to open X and got the same font error. [11:45] somerville32: weird.. up till now many cameraas and usb-sticks have been recognized automatically [11:45] watnu: I'm not using Gnome [11:45] LjL: can try that anyway :) [11:45] Madpilot, i know but i need to change the ports [11:45] watnu: I'm using xfce4 [11:45] Marlun: hold on [11:45] LjL: nah, just get [fail] . [11:46] anyone know why Mplayer says "Can't read VGM info!" when I try to play a DVD? I have the libdvdcss2 installed, but for some reason it wont play? [11:46] somerville32: i use gnome or kde... i dont know xfce4 good enough [11:46] Marlun: install xserver-common (which is not the same as xorg-common ;) [11:46] LjL: whops, sorry :) [11:46] Marlun: no no, i told you that [11:46] Marlun: my fault [11:47] Marlun: (anyway don't bother removing xorg-common, it's needed anyway) [11:47] LjL: well, still 0 on everything. :P [11:47] Marlun: (and it was probably already installed when you installed xserver-xorg) [11:47] Marlun: nothing? well install x-window-system-core [11:47] gfish: BT uses standard ports, doesn't it? If you need to make sure the BT ports are open, install Firestarter and open the ports there [11:47] LjL: ok :) [11:48] Marlun: it will not install things that are not really needed anyway [11:49] LjL: 5 packages, and it's about fonts, sound promesing :P === FliesLikeABrick [n=someone@cpe-72-224-119-16.nycap.res.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu [11:49] Marlun: yeah, i think it will work now [11:49] LjL: a gray screen! :) [11:49] Marlun: using "X"? === esptho_ [n=e@ti111210a080-6398.bb.online.no] has left #ubuntu [] [11:49] LjL: yeah, and even a mouse pointer [11:50] Marlun: then gdm start should work this time [11:50] Madpilot> i need to change the ports because the default are rejected by tracker [11:50] LjL: just trying to figure out how to get out of this :) [11:50] Marlun: ctrl+alt+backspace [11:51] LjL: nice, but gdm still just gives me [fail] , it's like it doesn't even try, before it started up but then told me it failed, now it instantly gives me "Starting GNOME Display Manager [fail] " === alindeman [i=adml@freenode/staff/gallery.alindeman] has joined #ubuntu [11:51] ive completed the aptitude install linux-source === psusi [n=phreak@103.202.33.65.cfl.res.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu === WildPenguin [n=The@250.160.233.220.exetel.com.au] has joined #ubuntu [11:52] Marlun: hmm are you running it with sudo?

[11:56] nishiroyato, the cvjf means create, verbose, compress with bzip2, put the stuff into a file [11:56] LjL: what is xterm? =P [11:56] yes [11:56] ive seen it all before [11:56] nishiroyato, the f might seem odd, but that's because tar stands for "tape archiver", and the default thing to do used to be to back up to a tape [11:56] nishiroyato, and the syntax has persisted over the last 40 years or so.

[11:59] Marlun: step 3 only if the other two don't result in "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start" working... but anyway, step 3 will not hurt [11:59] nishiroyato, by the way, it is 2.6.12-9.
