[12:56] ecobuntu: so I figure that ubuntu is doing something behind my back or I have a virus [12:56] ZeroDni, you dont just dist-upgrade on a REAL server !

[12:57] nah [12:57] though i don't quite see what use XFCE4 is (weight-wise), when one is going to use Gnome and/or KDE apps anyway [12:57] i also dont upgrade untill like a few week affter the switch [12:58] if you want some of the eye candy go for xfce [12:58] Windows 98 is a bit faster on my machine [12:58] And it seems to make all to the difference [12:58] calamari, i had the same issue. i remember that i edited a script like powernowd or something in /etc/init.d [12:58] eye candy with xfce? compared to what? kde? [12:58] calamari, google for it [12:58] LjL, you're not using all the gnome-libs [12:58] somerville32: not surprising.. win98 is a pretty fast os [12:58] LjL: yes, alternatives to OpenOffice, for instance Abiword, are also necessary on slow hardware [12:58] compared to fluxbox which is barebones [12:58] saik0: i suppose you're using most, though [12:58] but fast as hell [12:59] somerville32, maybe you need a lighter distro, like vanilla Debian, with lighter programs - like sylpheed rather than evolution and the like. [12:59] on crap hardware [12:59] and now that i use webmin for most of the samll servers its been a breze to go to brezy [12:59] LjL, not really, you would be surprised [12:59] i LOVE gnome, but i would like to have that top-panel menu from os9/osx/kde :) [12:59] Xenguy: now this is reasonable, though i think more and more apps are either KDE or Gnome apps [12:59] saik0: well, i dunno, i use KDE myself [12:59] vanilla Debian?

[01:00] EdLin: yeah i'm familiar with debian but i've never heard of debian vanilla [01:00] LjL, and im glad you have the freedom of choice :) [01:01] ecobuntu, "vanilla" means "plain" [01:01] realy you realy can use any by defalt just install server first witch i always do then just do apt-get install kde-base and you have kde for you to install only the programs you want [01:01] somerville32: or just type server at boot, then install x-windows-system and fluxbox [01:01] oskude: and i'm glad i'm seeing a nice and reasonable top-of-the-screen menubar right now :P [01:01] somerville32: then you'll be golden! [01:01] EdLin: well i know what vanilla means but why would debian be 'vanilla' versus ubuntu? [01:01] LjL, :) dont tease me :) [01:01] EdLin: ubuntu only has like two or three different programs [01:02] ecobuntu, Ubuntu is a Debian-derived distribution. [01:02] ecobuntu now what do you like about fluxbox i was thinking of trying it from kde but im affrid it doesnt have alot of the covinet things kde has [01:02] EdLin: default Debian installation gives you [01:02] ecobuntu, Because Ubuntu changes and adds patches to software to make it better whereas debian often does not [01:02] KDE and GNOME [01:02] i've heard "vanilla" metnioned with kerenel... [01:02] oskude: but i do! KDE is better! it just looks buttugly by default, but :P [01:02] *mentioned [01:02] oskude: vanilla kernel means mainline with 0 tweaks or patches [01:02] SEJeff: so does Debian [01:02] how do I compress a couple of files, and what is the smallest compression type? (I'm compressing two large images) [01:02] ecobuntu, Debian does not give you KDE and GNOME by default, unless you select it in tasksel [01:02] SEJeff: you're lying! [01:02] ecobuntu: And which makes a better desktop, Debian or ubuntu? [01:02] LjL, i like gnome cause of its "cleaness" [01:03] calamari: Win98 is fast because it does VERY little :-) [01:03] ecobuntu: hence debian being vanilla [01:03] Stormx2: bzip2 compresses smaller than gzip AFAIK [01:03] debian or ubuntu doesnt make ANY desktops...

[01:03] sadly xubuntu doenst work "out-of-the-box"... [01:04] yet, i hope :) [01:04] cribeiro: I need a tool that tells me which programs are causing the reads or writes to my drive [01:04] oskude: yea, gnome's "cleaness" is attractive, no doubt, but for myself, i've found that it starts being limiting and getting in the way quite soon. and i assure you that the way KDE works *makes sense*, it just appears not to because there are simply too many buttons one sees by default [01:04] ok ive converted a rpm to a deb now what? [01:04] oskude: It does work out of the box [01:04] ZeroDNI: fluxbox is very quick and highly configurable [01:04] ZeroDNI: much more minimalistic than KDE [01:04] cribeiro: then when it happens I can see what the culprit is [01:04] LjL: What gets in the way?

[01:05] SEJeff: it's simplemindedness. just to mention what oskude mentioned, i can't get top-of-the-screen menus with Gnome. [01:05] Red-sox: killall firefox-bin [01:05] Red-Sox: do you hate the Yankees?

[01:05] Xenguy: i think it's way lighter [01:05] LjL: top of the screen menus? === xsje [n=xsje@122-213.surfsnel.dsl.internl.net] has left #ubuntu ["Leaving"] [01:05] LjL, I can't make gnome allow me to resize windows with alt-right mouse [01:05] oskude: the menubar? ;-P well, anyway, the KIOSlaves, for example? [01:05] N6REJ, MOST CERTAINTLY NOT! [01:05] SEJeff: like MacOS' [01:05] calamari: vmstat will tell you which kind of disk usage you have - if it is swapping or regular disk usage [01:05] LjL, KIOSlaves ? swt [01:06] Red-Sox, ok, wanted to make sure.. I hoped not :D [01:06] ecobuntu: for example, I tried a bunch of different WM's last week, and they didn't load any faster than xfce4 from what I could see. Now maybe the memory usage is less, that I don't know [01:06] cribeiro: I think I need a program that logs disk i/o and which program did it.. so I can file an appropriate bug report [01:06] Hello........ [01:06] LjL: Read about the hack called kdeinit and then find a better argument :) [01:06] oskude if you think about it nor kde are gnome is better than one another nome is more mac style and kde is more os2 and windows style [01:06] anone any ideas [01:06] Xenguy: well it's faster but if you're running KDE and GNOME apps it's still going to eat up your speed [01:06] cribeiro: otherwise people will say that my lockups are hardware related [01:06] LjL: I hate the Macos style topbar, but to each his own [01:06] ecobuntu: makes sense [01:06] calamari: if you are experiencing thrashing (yes, written this way) then it not a particular program. it just that you are swapping to much. it a VM fault. [01:07] Xenguy: yeah... === sizzam [n=sizzam@ip65.220.23.209.susc.suscom.net] has joined #ubuntu [01:07] calamari: type vmstat 5 and check its output [01:07] eek, how do I make bzip2 put 2 files in 1 archive? :( [01:07] SEJeff, he wasn't talking about whether someone loves it or hates it. He was talking about flexibility, or lack of same, at the windowing system configuration layer [01:07] oskude: well, actually i was thinking more of KPart (KIOSlaves are more like gnome-vfs, i think, though i'm not 100% sure what gnome-vfs is about). KPart is KDE's object embedding mechanism. basically, the one that lets Konqueror show any kind of file KDE knows about (not just that, of course) [01:07] cribeiro: well the thing is that it normal;ly doesn't thrash.. and when it does I am not doing anything out of the ordinary.. fore example it just did it while I was chatting on irc [01:07] ZeroDni, i never had a mac, but i still like gnome more, it just feels lighter :) (and these are personal opinions anyway, i use KDE apps too) [01:07] there are a few numbers that you need to check - like po's and pi's, if I remember it correctly [01:07] im just glade we have so many choses when it comes to interfaces [01:07] Stormx2, bz2 is just compression, you want a bzipped tarball [01:07] cribeiro, and what if is swaping very offten ? :) altrough has just 128mb ram :) [01:07] SEJeff: you mean the hack that was once needed -- and isn't there anymore -- when G++ had problems with runtime linking? [01:07] can someone PM me on how to get internet sorted out please? [01:08] !pm [01:08] saik0: Ok, how do I do that? [01:08] from memory, pm is Ask your questions in the channel so that other people may also benefit from answers received. [01:08] i'll be interested to see how the new GUI installer is for Ubuntu [01:08] Stormx2: man tar =) === sexualpotatoes [n=Mike@ny-lackawannacadent4-2d-23.buf.adelphia.net] has joined #ubuntu [01:08] saik0 i get status database area is locked by another process" [01:08] EnlishStan how many nic interfaces do you have on the PC [01:08] I'm running dapper right now and not too much is different yet [01:08] EnglishStan, that's rather a broad subject [01:08] http://hey-charlie.org/xchat.jpg See how xChat is interlacing /msg's with the main texT? How can I _stop_ it doing that? [01:08] SpaceCake: well, if you have little memory there's nothing that you can do, besides running fewer (and lighter) apps. [01:08] lets stop this KDE/GNOME flame, both are good, and the point is you can use even both :) [01:08] nytryx|Ibook, close synaptic =) [01:08] how do i reinstall grub if i don't have a live cd?? === pixelmonkey [n=aa@207-237-123-189.c3-0.nyw-ubr2.nyr-nyw.ny.cable.rcn.com] has joined #ubuntu [01:08] rixth: use irssi-text!!!! [01:08] oskude, indeed, I do use both [01:08] calamari: if you have something big running in the background... then you may experience heavy swapping. How much memory you have? [01:09] LjL: No, the one that doesn't allow me to use SELinux https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-devel-list/2005-January/msg00900.html [01:09] I just upgraded to breezy and have this annoying message on logging on about $HOME/.dmrc. It says it needs to be 644 permissioned. It is. It exists. Yet it still complains. [01:09] It just started doing it yesterday- seeming by itsels [01:09] sethk, you can use alt mouse to resize windows; use the configuration editor and look at /apps/metacity/general/mouse_button_modifier [01:09] LjL: http://www.nsa.gov/selinux/list-archive/0407/7698.cfm and it is still very much there [01:09] oskude: well, actually, the point i usually make is to *not* use both... either choose KDE or Gnome, but myself, i'd never bloat my system by using both [01:09] Uboto. i have but i can't seem to get any answers [01:09] cribeiro: I insist on the swapping thesis because of what you say - low CPU usage coupled with high disk IO. it's typical. [01:09] cribeiro: 384mb .. and most is free.. I show no swap being used... and also when it freezies I've checked and no swap [01:09] cribeiro, yea I know, thats way after testing Mandriva, Suse .. I got stuck with Ubuntu [01:09] pixelmonkey i get that too only when i log in via XDMCP [01:10] nickrud, thanks, I'll try that. [01:10] LjL: Agreed. Doesn't make sense to load the libraries for 2 big toolkits into memory [01:10] LjL, well, there are programs that are only for GNOME or KDE, so i use both (libs, not desktops) [01:10] SpaceCake: Ubuntu is really a lot lighter. I just hope it doesnt get too bloated as times goes on... [01:10] ZeroDni, so what's the solution? [01:10] !uboto grub after windows install [01:10] sexualpotatoes: Did you get hit by a windmill? [01:10] sethk, that's the area you want to look into for customizing metacity; it's not sawfish, but there is a bit [01:10] so, what ever you use, KDE or GNOME, u can use both programs in the other... [01:10] cribeiro: I wonder sometimes if it is a cron job that is causing it.. but I don't know how to find out besides disabling cron and I'd rather not [01:10] calamari: leave the vmstat in some terminal... and check it when the problem surfaces. it will tell you something about the nature of your disk IO. [01:11] !ubotu tell oskude about u [01:11] cribeiro: Ubuntu 5.10 (Breezy) runs faster on this machine than the previous release... [01:11] does anyone have the new sources.list file please? [01:11] calamari: I had some issues with cron a long time ago. Don't remember now, really. [01:11] new? [01:11] sorry for my lazyness :) [01:11] !tell N6REJ about repos [01:11] !uboto tell sexualpotatoes about grub after installing ubuntu without live cd [01:11] sexualpotatoes: I'm sorry, i don't know what you're talking about === fsmw [n=Fernando@103-59-50.adsl.terra.cl] has joined #ubuntu [01:11] lol [01:11] gay [01:11] cribeiro: okay I will leave that running.. hopefully it will capture the problem.. thanks :) [01:11] ~ubotu set VAR "u" as "you" :) [01:11] cribeiro, I got Cel300A, 3gb hdd, I tried even Suse 6.4. was a no go :( One option was Debian, but I got first Ubuntu :) [01:12] EnglishStan, sorry, there is so much traffic that whatever you specifically asked scrolled by before I could read it. === ursine [n=ursine@D-128-208-58-167.dhcp4.washington.edu] has joined #ubuntu [01:12] calamari: well, at least you'll know if the IO is process or application driven... or VM driven. [01:12] Madpilot, thanks! I'm gonna save the darn thing this time.... I tried to install the AMD64 distro, but apprently I had a bad disk and I don't see how to "verify" that a disk burned right with nautilus. [01:13] anyone here familiar with linux sound troubles? [01:13] EnglishStan, you can /pm me with a question if you like [01:13] calamari: you may try also lsof or something like that [01:13] ursine: like? [01:13] lsof lists open files. there's also other app that does something similar but I forgot its name [01:13] lsof also lists who's using the file [01:13] cribeiro: strace is pretty advanced. That is what you are talking about [01:13] I have a soundmax that isn't outputting any sound [01:14] cribeiro: * the tool that is similar [01:14] I managed to fix it in the last release, but don't remember what I did [01:14] ursine, mine worked right out of the box! [01:14] !tell sethk about pm [01:14] SEJeff: yes, that's it.

[01:15] cause POSIX machines are using a 32-bit signed int to keep track of time [01:15] and windows too [01:15] from 1970 [01:15] Is there a Nero like cdburning program for *nix? [01:15] cribeiro: I'm not sure about lsof in Solaris. The Solaris strace equivalent is truss I believe [01:15] Xenguy, at times there is so much traffic that one person's questions never break through [01:15] N6REJ: k3b ? [01:15] k3b?

Haven't played much with Solaris [01:16] sethk: exceptions to all rules I suppose [01:16] k3b is pretty cool [01:16] Homer, you're being serious, are you? [01:16] repete, gr8t ty, I'll look for it. [01:16] Has anyone seen the 'smart' developer in irc? [01:16] yes [01:17] you have about 32 years before your computer explodes [01:17] :D [01:17] ursine: lspci |less (look for keyword 'audio') [01:17] Homer, the problem is well know, and will be adresed long before then [01:17] cribeiro: Yeah, it's a great tool. But you have to compile it in HP-UX. It doesn't come stock. [01:17] N6REJ: 'sudo apt-get install k3b' :-) [01:17] Homer, you have any "evidence" or just theory ? === bosk [n=ageless@193.251.135.118] has joined #ubuntu [01:17] it's a well known problem [01:17] SEJeff: I had some experience with Solaris about 9 or 8 years ago.

Put sudo in front of it in the sessions that you have autologin [01:31] was something else, sec [01:31] I think that "vino" is the closest to a "default"...

[03:26] sheesh, KDE is 505mb - is it worth it?? [03:27] synackuator, judgement call [03:27] sethk, when I chose use whole drive, Ubuntu created swap by itself on hd5 [03:27] pztak1, you can do it every which way. It isn't trivial to set up, but it can be done [03:27] meh, i'm getting 400kb/s it's all good [03:27] lightbright, I know, but override it. [03:27] Does anyone know how to make my mp3 player (Sandisk, functions like a removable usb drive) readable/writable, vs. the "read only" error messages I'm getting when I try to delete/change anything on the device? [03:27] lightbright, it's a machine, you are smarter than it is [03:27] sethk, any ideas where i can find out more about it.. or what it may be called (so i can google it)? [03:27] bob2, OMG im like out of my socks, but it sounds very "normal", i have compiled many apps from source code and when they needed some libs, i just installed the *-dev packages, and now when i think, yeah they only need the headers. LOL i was so "wrong" all the time,so i thank you VERY MUCH for your info :) [03:27] sethk, if you install Breezy and tell it to use whoile drive, it will use hda1 for / and create a hda5 for swap! thats whats its doing by itself [03:28] pztak1, start with the tunneling options in the kernel configuration [03:28] lightbright, I know [03:28] lightbright, that's why I said to change it [03:28] sethk, why would it hurt to have it as hda5? [03:28] lightbright, a bit less efficient. Only a hair, but why put up with it? [03:28] sethk, why does it hurt? [03:28] sethk, and what happened to hda2 and 3 and 4? [03:28] lightbright, because hda5 is a pseudo partition in hda4 [03:29] lightbright, and in your case hda2 and hda3 are unused, which is the point [03:29] sethk, but I dont ever see the swap anyway! i leave it alone [03:29] bob2 know any c ? [03:29] back [03:29] lightbright, I know, but if it is used, then it matters. The kernel uses it if you run out of real memory [03:29] lightbright, but if you aren't comfortable mucking around with it, don't worry [03:29] bob2, but then again, when ever i needed source, was cause the deb was too "old" so i NEWER needed the source of the debs... [03:29] lightbright, it's trivial to change it later if you want [03:29] Urthmover: I've installed the FreeNX packages, but now how do I use it? [03:30] lightbright, it's a somewhat academic objection on my part. [03:30] Urthmover: Say I want to run gaim in an "NX" session on my desktop, and then connect to it locally so it appears on my desktop here, and then connect to it remotely from another Linux machine somewhere else? [03:30] sethk, ok :) [03:30] sethk, how can I change it from hda5 to hda2? [03:31] lightbright, you use fdisk. delete hda5, and hda4. then create hda2, and mark it as swap [03:31] lightbright, but, thinking about it, you would also have to change the config, which is easy (for me) but possibly something you don't want to deal with at the moment [03:31] lightbright, do it later, you don't lose anything [03:31] sethk, when I type cfdisk /dev/hda it says FATAL error [03:31] sethk, you mean change fstab? [03:31] paulproteus, why not just direct the gaim output to whichever machine you want it to display on? Why use all those add ons at all? [03:32] lightbright, right [03:32] sethk: I want to maintain state. [03:32] sethk, when I type cfdisk /dev/hda it says FATAL error! what is the problem? [03:32] lightbright, did you try with "sudo" [03:32] lightbright, there could be a swapon statement somewhere also. [03:32] sethk, I can change fstab to hda2, takes me 2 seconds [03:32] lightbright, I don't know, I never use cfdisk [03:32] can i get monodevelop 0.8 on ubuntu "ubuntu come wiht 0.7? and what about mono 1.1.10? [03:32] lightbright, I just use fdisk [03:32] oskude, ah no :P hehe [03:32] paulproteus, I don't see why that matters [03:32] oskude, it works with sudo :P === BinaryDigit [n=Bit@ool-45754e03.dyn.optonline.net] has joined #ubuntu [03:32] lightbright, you have to run it as root, of course [03:32] chdisk is allmost like an "gui" for fdisk :) [03:33] sethk: I want to have the same view of gaim no matter what computer I'm at. === dane_bramage [n=dane@24-107-94-175.dhcp.stls.mo.charter.com] has joined #ubuntu [03:33] sethk, i loaded cfdisk hda! how do I now tell it to use hda2?

[03:33] sethk, can I delete hda5 while Ubintu is runnung? [03:33] it's dreadful [03:33] sethk: But when I leave that computer and log off, X will quit. [03:33] sethk: And gaim will quit, too, then. [03:33] Wireless question, which wireless adapter works best on unbuntu with little configuration [03:33] Urthmover, if I can get FreeBSD 6.0, and Debian 3.1 netinst. I can manage gentoo :-) [03:33] lightbright: It may be a good idea to swapood /dev/hda5 first [03:34] achk .. swapoff /dev/hda5 [03:34] I use many systems m8... [03:34] clint-, gentoo sounds nice, but dor desktop useless (when update lasts 2days, when comliling) [03:34] paulproteus, if the computer is off I don't see what you are preserving :) [03:34] dane_bramage: usually netgear [03:34] (I hate using other people's keyboards. the spacing's all out of whack) [03:34] sethk: No. No computer is ever off. [03:34] lightbright, you would want to take the swap out of service [03:34] I want my always-on desktop to maintain gaim state. [03:34] paulproteus, mine is, if I disconnect the power. [03:34] well then maybe if you can help me get this so I can get into my parititions. I would happy :-) [03:34] I want the same view of gaim no matter where I am. [03:34] lol clint [03:34] sethk: I mean in my desired strategy.... [03:34] paulproteus, you mean you don't want to restart gaim? [03:34] without me constantly reading.. :-) [03:34] sethk: Right, exactly. [03:34] No state change in gaim. [03:34] any particular version etc. [03:35] Quitting is a state change. (-; [03:35] paulproteus, seems like a lot of trouble for not much return, but ok [03:35] I was just giving a helpful hint....don't use gentoo unless there is a specific reason to [03:35] sethk, ok done! I deleted hda5 and said NEW and it picked hda2 and I wrote it [03:35] but oh well.. I will read and become good at it. like I proved to myself what I can do already that of from 1 year ago [03:35] lightbright, do a swapon then, on /dev/hda2 [03:35] sethk, it seemed I could do it while running Ubtunu [03:35] and lol @ your good luck with gentoo,,, ou should try installing freebsd, then you tell me good luck with gentoo lol [03:35] lightbright, if the swap is off line, sure [03:35] sethk, I then told fdisk to use hda2 as 82, swap [03:35] lightbright, good [03:35] sethk, whats my next step? [03:36] PC BSD is the fasest and easiest I have ever seen [03:36] sethk, change fstab? [03:36] lightbright, right [03:36] GTroy, any particular version, chipset etc... [03:36] the only thing. is keyboad configuration [03:36] sethk, anything else?

[03:36] lightbright, that's all permanently, yes [03:36] sethk, type " swapon /dev/hda2" ?

[03:47] sethk, I changed the fstab to hda2 [03:48] lightbright, first do mount (no arguments again). if mount doesn't show the swap, then do mkswap /dev/hda2, and swapon /dev/hda2 [03:48] sethk, can I jiust reboot X?

[05:21] i always hated that "feature" of xp and i similarly hate it in gnome [05:21] and a 'soapbox' moment .. saying 'linux doesn't make it, linux doesn't have to support it' really kinda irks me. microsoft made my keyboard, but if I plug it in, I expect it to work [05:21] bbl [05:21] what ever, NTFS is NOT fully supported, but you can use it with your own risk, as you can use ext2/ext2 on windows... [05:21] lol smo [05:22] ntfs is only safe for reading, and it has very limited writing [05:22] oskude, yes, NTFS READ is fully supported. Writing to an NTFS partition is not [05:22] oskude: reading is NOT "at your own risk", it's perfectly safe. Only when you try to write to it do you risk destroying it. [05:22] using the captive project, you basically use windows's ntfs driver to do full read/write [05:22] oskude: so ms windows can read a ext2 linux partition?

[05:25] Agrajag: in Australia its not illegal to watch DVD [05:25] FAT is very simple and quite open.

[05:26] it's illegal under the DMCA, because it cracks the CSS encryption [05:26] I think thats my answer, thanks again [05:26] but the specs for it are open, i think === michwho [n=michwho@ZYYYMMDCCCLIII.dsl.saunalahti.fi] has joined #ubuntu [05:26] Yes, under the DMCA it's sooo stupid [05:26] Swedish_Chef, nope [05:26] Agrajag: how can watching your own DVD be illegal? [05:26] hi van :) [05:26] as i said i tend to avoid fat32/fat16/ntfs... ftp doesnt have to deal with FS, if your wondering howto share files... [05:26] gah this is frustrating... does anyone know how i can get 'liblinc1' installed? === starNIX [n=starNIX@71-10-122-43.dhcp.stpt.wi.charter.com] has joined #ubuntu [05:26] lightbright: because the law says you can't crack encryption. [05:27] lightbright, because our government is stupid and enacted the DMCA [05:27] and this aint MS forum, so why give support for even on dualboot /share files ? [05:27] Because it violates the copy protection part of the "Digital Millenium Copyright act" [05:27] how many people actually give a rat's ass about the law? [05:27] especially things like the dmca [05:27] Not me ;) [05:27] the answer is not many hehe [05:27] yes...

[05:27] Agrajag, no, the law says that you can't export your method of cracking encyption [05:28] the state of the us legal system, corruption of the government, retarded population, etc. is ridiculous [05:28] I don't pirate anything, don't get movies without paying for them, so I feel I have every right to watch it [05:28] Agrajag, cracking it, per se, is not illegal [05:28] ok, which means you can write you own library for cracking it, but you can't use libdvdcss2 [05:28] but i can assure all of you that when i rule the world, it will be a paradise [05:28] the distance it takes till world domination :) [05:28] none of this bullshit :D [05:28] ispiked, it conflicts with liborbit2 [05:28] etarded pop, hehehe good 1 [05:28] Agrajag: are dvd players illegal in US? [05:28] sethk, IIRC, it says you can not use or traffic an circumvention device === spiderworm [n=David@blender/support/spiderworm] has joined #ubuntu [05:28] it has nothign to do with encryption per se, only breaking a copy protection device [05:28] psusi, right [05:28] Swedish_Chef: ok, Applications -> System Tools -> Configuration Editor. apps -> panel -> applets -> window_list_screen0 -> prefs. change "group windows" to "never" [05:28] Agrajag: doesnt a normal DVD player need to decrypt each DVD and "crack encryption" before it plays it? [05:28] thespore: it wants a lesser version of it [05:28] lightbright: yes and so is communism! [05:29] lightbright: no, because they do not crack the encryption. They decrypt it with a key and pay some group for the right t use that key. [05:29] ispiked, what do you mean? [05:29] DeCSS is currently illegal. Dmitry Skyalorov, a Russian citizen, was arrested for breaking weak e-book encryption. [05:29] lightbright, yeah, my very old dvd player has hard time to play new dvds... [05:29] Agrajag: where is that key stored? [05:29] thespore: what do you mean it conflicts with it? [05:29] oskude: ok [05:29] bimberi: holy crap, thank you! [05:29] lightbright: I'd imagine in a ROM on the DVD player.

[05:30] Agrajag: so when you buy a dvd player you also pay for that "key" ? [05:30] That key is generally also encrypted, failure to do so is how DeCSS was created to begin with. [05:30] what do i do with fsck? [05:30] lightbright: nope.

[05:30] smo: lol [05:31] Macrovision is also used on some DVDs to avoid recording via an analog output [05:31] macrovision was annoying [05:31] oskude, there was a vhs copy protection scheme, but it was almost useless and I think it faded [05:31] hmm, i wonder why they have more fear against DVD than VHS, they ARE the same, just another medium... [05:31] thespore: hrm... [05:31] the snap off tabs were write protect tabs... commercial vhs tapes are encoded using macrovision, which is an embeded signal that tells legal VCRs not to record the signal [05:31] can anyone help me figure out why klibido keeps freezing for me?

[05:32] oskude: you have to pay for cable/satellite, though [05:32] lightbright: hell, I dunno, check your laws, see if they enacted any digital rights laws similar to ours [05:32] is there away to clear the cache for it? [05:32] Agrajag: how can I find out for certain if libdvdcss is legal in Australia? [05:32] Agrajag, no... it is illegal because it circumvents a copy protection device... the fact that it decrypts data to do that doesn't matter [05:33] Swedish_Chef, yeah, its called "GEX(tapo)" here :) [05:33] Swedish_Chef, yeah, its called "GEZ(tapo)" here :) [05:33] psusi: oh ok, same deal [05:33] Agrajag: i wonder if theres a website for all countires, thats all [05:33] hehe === Annath [n=Annath@pcp08744887pcs.dckrsn01.tn.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu [05:33] lightbright, ask a lawyer [05:33] lightbright: if there is one, it's just as unjust as the DMCA, and should be ignored. === terryP [n=null@60-234-142-58.bitstream.orcon.net.nz] has joined #ubuntu [05:33] Ep|phany, not sure, I've never used it. my generic fault finding steps for any app are watching the console for errors, then trying again with strace and seeing if it stops on anything noticable [05:33] but that's just my opinion.

[02:41] onkarshinde: one how to said you should not use Mp3 use ogg instead don't watch CSS DVDs [02:41] obsvuugj: why reinstall to fix just only that? [02:42] Well, at first I just tried the default install, no luck. Then I installed all the aspell packages for my language. That worked great from command line and Abiword, but nothing from OO [02:42] onkarshinde: that was a Offical Fedora site that said it and not in a fourm [02:42] MachineScrew, heh that's not very practicle ;) [02:42] the language pack for en_us is already installed in OO === ompaul [n=ompaul@A-102-27.cust.iol.ie] has joined #ubuntu [02:43] Astxist: yet in order to play that content like mp3s wmas and CSS we now become criminals [02:43] the whole thing makes me sick [02:43] wma is a gay codec [02:43] Archite: the spell packages for OOo are the myspell packages [02:44] redxninja: ...

[02:44] !+gay [02:44] gay is, like, the dictionary says "Excited with merriment; manifesting sportiveness or delight; inspiring delight; livery; merry." But some people don't know what it means, I guess Some highly ignorant folks think it's an insult of some sort. Who can tell why? [02:44] wma sucks [02:45] it's better than mp3 in terms of quality :) [02:45] redxninja: yes it dose and as well as other propritary formats [02:45] Astxist: Did you install myspell-dictionary? === aapelii [n=akaariai@cs181067247.pp.htv.fi] has joined #ubuntu [02:45] but it's not open and that's the things which(who?) suxx :p [02:45] thoreauputic: I thought it ignored + now.

[02:46] MachineScrew, no, they just help people make their mind up about exactly what their game is [02:46] err, because [02:46] they suck because I say so [02:46] Amaranth: Not about Free stuff, Open Protocols, open codecs etc [02:46] thoreauputic: where were you earlier? hehe. That worked like a charm. Seams kinda foolish that wasn't installed with OO [02:47] Amaranth: no because I am a pirate if I wan't to watch a wmv [02:47] thoreauputic: But what should I expect when most other packages are half-ass packed anyways :( [02:47] Archite: odd - it was on my system [02:47] at least it work snow [02:47] thoreauputic: I installed twice, and it was missing bother times [02:47] Someone who knows why the dialog that shows whats loaded when you login to Ubuntu gets stuck on the desktop? As soon as I open a application it disapears, but it's still annoying. (I did a server-install and manually installed gnome) [02:47] maybe bad cd? [02:47] Amaranth: I don't use windows they expect people to use there stuff only [02:47] MachineScrew: You're breaking several laws when you download, distribute, or use w32codecs, yes. [02:47] Archite: possibly - I don't know [02:47] Amaranth: yes I know [02:47] thoreauputic: either way, I have some respect for Ubuntu agian :) [02:47] why does synaptic soo slow at searching apps? [02:48] Amaranth: and thats my point [02:48] Archite: glad to hear that :) [02:48] redxninja: just use `apt-cache search` [02:48] redxninja: You're searching name and description. If you search just name it's fast. [02:48] Amaranth: I am not doing any thing bad I just wana enjoy a movie trailer or two [02:48] Marlun: did you install ubuntu-desktop ?

It's fun! [02:49] Marlun: well might i suggest you do so ? [02:49] thoreauputic: And I didn't want to since it will install more then gnome, I only want gnome and then install every other app myself. [02:49] Archite: this is serious [02:49] dang, Archite beat me to it :) [02:49] Amaranth: i don't get it [02:49] MachineScrew: Nothing is serious.

[02:52] thoreauputic: well it's not that I need very lightweight stuff, I just wanted to learn by installing everything myself and also I wanted to only have the things I need and want installed and not alot of other things. [02:53] Archite: not in the $50 range [02:53] Archite: I have looked [02:53] Marlun: You might want to try regular debian, in that case.

[02:54] why should I go out and spend money [02:54] Archite: Thats what I've just done with Ubuntu, why change to Debian? =) [02:54] MS was right Linux people also make you spend money === b1n0ry[away] is now known as b1n0ry[work] [02:55] any one realize I am below poverty level [02:55] Marlun: because the x-window-system package is missing in Ubuntu, meaning you have to instal all the packages by hand [02:55] out of interest, anyone know how to install libmultisync-plugin-all from the funky package management tool ? [02:55] i have done it by hand, but maybe i missed something [02:55] Archite: Or, you know, just install ubuntu-desktop or xserver-xorg [02:55] Archite: erm, no it isn't [02:55] MachineScrew, i'm under too and i don't complain :p === beyond is now known as beyond-rango [02:56] I use linux and free software so I speend less money now you tell me to get an expensive ogg player === Glutinous [n=steven@ppp169-24.lns1.per1.internode.on.net] has joined #ubuntu [02:56] Archite: ah sorry you are right - it's only x-window-system-core [02:56] Archite: I got some help with this yeasterday and we came to the conclusion that after server-install I only need to install "x-window-system-core" and "gdm" and maybe "xserver-xorg". [02:56] MachineScrew, it's not expensive, it's the same price [02:56] Amaranth: Marlun was talking about stripping out all junk he doesn't use. Install ubuntu-desktop defeats that purpose [02:56] and it plays mp3 too, for the most of the players :) [02:57] Roane: whats the same price [02:57] Archite: I don't know if that works since I have not reinstalled again, however I didn't install much more then that yeasterday and the computer is up and running. [02:57] a player with mp3 and ogg [02:57] Marlun: sweet ;) [02:57] you just need to find one :) [02:58] Marlun: Basically, if I want gnome, I use Ubuntu. Anything else, I usually go to debian testing. [02:58] Roane: you are telling me I can get a portibale ogg player for 50 buck or less and store 600+MB on it [02:58] I think it exists yes :) [02:58] Archite: my only problem is that the stupid dialog gets stuck after login, but as I said is removed instantly when i open a application, so it's just annoying. [02:58] Roane: no it dosn't I looked [02:58] Archite: I do want gnome.

[03:14] thoreauputic: for firefox too. [03:15] Marlun: right - the two are linked by the dummy package [03:15] So in my shell script I should use firefox instead of mozilla-firefox, even though they are linked?

[11:54] it says command not found [11:54] then spell it right [11:54] LjL: k... how about booting up? when it checks for all those things and says OK or Failed?
