Squee-DIs there a good tool for profiling the quality of a network interface? My wireless card seems to "freeze up" intermittently and i really dont know where to start12:00
ELpH95oafter i get mine working :)12:00
BenUrbanjroes: if i understand what you're asking correctly12:00
korhalfSquee-D: perhaps tcpdump or ethereal to spot bottlenecks?12:00
jroesBenUrban: I'm talking simultaneous on the same machine...12:00
BenUrbanoh12:00
jroesBenUrban: without a remote X session12:00
xkahnPeaker: I dunno.  There are probably lots of reasons there.  GNOME has traditionally tried to use muted colors....  GNOME apps don't look great without GNOME, sometimes.  KDE apps don't look good without KDE.12:00
korhalfSquee-D: and check ifconfig and see if your cards configured properly12:00

jroesI'm talking I guess you could say like Mac OS X or Windows XP "switch user" functionality12:01
xkahnPeaker: and, of course, it depends on what angle you approach them from.12:01
StR34kzandaa, I've used a tv tuner before, what type do you have?12:01
gnomefreakjroes im sure it is but you would need to hook up a few keyboards and stuff :(12:01
dooglusI had ubuntu (breezy) lock up for about 15 minutes earlier.  I couldn't move the mouse, type anything, switch to a virtual console, or anything.12:01
jroes?12:01
gnomefreakwindows Xp only allows one user at a time12:01
cafuegojroes: Run a second X server on tty8, log 'em in.12:01
dooglusThen it came back on its own.  What could cause that?12:01

rosenmwe, oh it looks really nice12:01
cafuegojroes: Add as many as you like, on different tty's.12:02
zandaaStR34k, well... I've got this Medion TV Tuner, was really cheap and I don't know where the composite is mounted12:02
jroesah, excellent12:02
dooglusIt happened around the same time yesterday too, but I got impatient and rebooted then.12:02
Peakergnomefreak: there's Switch User in Windows XP now12:02
cafuegojroes: ... add more via ltsp and xdmcp, from remote terminals. Linux doesn't care, as long as you have ram :-)12:02
rosenmwe, but it also says that there is two users on my comp ... there shouldnt be so *paranoia here I come*12:02
=== danzaconlobos [i=danzacon@as8-200-76-194-33.mtyxl.axtel.net] has left #ubuntu []
gnomefreakPeaker,  yes you can switch user but not run 2 users on same XP at same time12:02
jroescafuego: excellent, thank you12:02
korhalfrosen: type last | head and check to see whos connected12:02
korhalfrosen: type w and see what they're running12:03
bimberijroes: Applications -> System Tools -> New Login, then switch as cafuego said above12:03
korhalfuse ttysnoop or something i dont know12:03
Squee-Dkorhalf i have it configged as best i know how. Im not seing any issues in syslog or messages, and i dont know how tcpdump/ethereal can help me.. i've used them for tcp debugging but thats quite a different kettle of fish12:03
=== BenUrban [n=benurban@68.49.10.243] has joined #ubuntu

korhalfSquee-D: i think i read your question wrong, i thought you were wondering why it was slow and dropping connection12:03
BenUrbanwhoops12:03
BenUrbanlol12:03
=== BenUrban thought there was a confirmation to log out :/
Peakergnomefreak: or you can use "runas" which is like "su"12:03
Squee-DI did just find wavemon12:03
StR34kzandaa, when I was using tvtime, composite was used as an seperate input, but it was a matter of it just working.12:03
korhalfSquee-D: i can't help you, maybe its time for a new card if its dying out on you12:03
rosenkorhalf, will do .. thanks12:03
Squee-Dkorhalf yeah its brand new :)12:04

gnomefreakPeaker,  you could always switch user in XP :( the way he asked it first time was like he wanted 2 users to use linux at same time12:04
BenUrbanbimberi: thanks12:04
StR34kzandaa, nope, never used it, I used tvtime just to watch tv12:04
Squee-Dmy concern is i have had PCI/ACPI troubles already on this machine, and something to do with using edge or level triggered signals on the pci bus turns up for my mobo in the kernel bugs a lot12:04
BenUrbanhttp://rafb.net/paste/results/13rRn726.html <-- any ideas?12:05
Peakergnomefreak: you can switch user while the existing programs of user still run12:05
zandaaStR34k, ok... installing tvtime now... how would I get input from composite?12:05
StR34kzandaa, mythtv didn't work for me12:05
bimberiBenUrban: np :) (btw line 1949 is interesting)12:05
Peakergnomefreak: and you can use terminal services to log in from afar as another user at same time12:05

korhalfrosen: no thats fine, thats normal12:06

nickrudAphix, if the folder is empty, rmdir /path/to/folder01:19
Aphixthanks01:19
Nytryxis it in the universe?01:19
mustard5s0n1cm0nk3y, I would assume the same thing..I have never tried it.  But from the bot message its seems to install xfce01:19
cgnetmustard5 I used the terminal to create a connection01:20
To-MeNytryx: fluxbox or iceWM are alternatives, small and fast01:20
nickruds0n1cm0nk3y, the simplest way to see what xubuntu-desktop gives you is to check it: apt-cache depends xubuntu-desktop01:20
daemonxubuntu-desktop installes all xfce-packages01:20
mustard5cgnet, hmmm ok...I had that problem myself once, but I thought it was related to having my settings in the Networking gui...01:20

WebLOCHyubimusubi, ElitePete, as far as i know, firefox is still awful, which is a shame, because it had a lot of promise, I won't give up on it until 2.0, but to be honest Im not going to use it till then either haha.03:12
dooglusnickrud: I had gam_server go into a CPU-bound loop once, so I downloaded the source and recompiled it with debugging enabled, so that next time I could make a proper bug report, rather than just saying "gam_server suxs".  needless to say, that fixed the problem...03:12

ElitePetehow do i use this baby now? :-)03:43
M_CheevyUbuntuNewbee: yes you can, I just don't know if you should... basically, the approach I'd take is to look at the device manager and see if gnome can see your device, then check the system preferences and settings to see if it's enabled.  One last question, you aren't using a set of digital speakers are you?03:43
WebLOCHElitePete, my advice would be to remove that line you added to the repos and update again now, to remove it.  The reason i say this is because its completely separate to the repos maintained by ubuntu folk, so it may end up containing things that will break your install of ubuntu.03:43
zaphar_pshttp://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/580603:43

WebLOCHElitePete, for now, you can open two terminals, in one type 'giftd' and it will probably just hold, once thats done ignore it and move to the other terminal, and type 'giFTcurs' remember case sensitivity03:44
dooglusvilefridge: as I remember it the fluxbox session file is a lot nicer to edit :)03:44
M_CheevyUbuntuNewbee: just take that approach and you should be on the right path03:44

M_Cheevyheya folks.. gotta small problem with the root account..  for a while I had a password set on the thing (stupid I know, old habits die hard)...

sdrmmintelikey, will I have to write a lilo.conf from scratch?10:50
thomas_or does anybody know another possibility of making an image of a encrypted dvd (with menus etc.)?10:50

intelikeyyes i don't dought that it is how you made the partition, but i think that the installer or something made a file system also.11:24
joedjtonyyarusso: sure11:24
intelikeysdrmm no11:25
tonyyarussojoedj: How?11:25
joedjtonyyarusso: cross-over ethernet cable is probably simplest, no different from a regular LAN with a hub11:25
intelikeysdrmm when you mount the new partition on /boot it will hide what ever is in that dir and any read/write will be to the partition, not the ramdisk.11:26
tonyyarussojoedj: What is that, and how do I use it?11:26
sdrmmintelikey, uhh havin a lil trouble gettin it mounthed i did -t ext2 and it said wrong FS type?11:26
intelikeyno -t  see if it can auto detect it.11:27
joedjtonyyarusso: it's network cable, but the wires are crossed over internally (a hub usually does this part). you just connect two computers via their ethernet cards with a cable and set up your network as usual (#1 goes ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.1, #2 goes ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.2) and they can communicate11:27
sdrmmintelikey, something isnt right, thats what i tried first and it couldnt11:27
joedjtonyyarusso: usually it's a different colour to regular (blue) CAT5 cable, often yellow11:27
sdrmmmount: error while guessing filesystem type11:27

ejofeeSeveas: but i should have seen some changes to the total number of packages, right?02:32
Seveasapt-get source foo downloads the source02:32

hmpedersenwell.. its at 83% now.. yesterday the install crashed between 20% and 24%06:17
[darksun] :(06:17
[darksun] anyone else know?06:18
trappistJowi: install msttcorefonts, grab any fonts off any windows box you might have, and google for 'font deuglification howto'06:19
Jowihmpedersen: what i noticed on the font-installation is that it install a fontset, then register the fonts, then another fontset, then register. i think it would be quicker just to install all the fonts and then register them for the system.06:19

sethkOphiocus, which/whereis  uses the execution search path to find an executable by name and show you the full path to it.08:17
_jasonhrmm, is kubuntu-desktop suppose to break gnome?  It affected my settings in gnome and now I can't even access 'fonts' in preferences.  It just opens and closes08:17
sethkOphiocus, so it isn't the fact that the file is executable, it's the fact that it is located by using the execution search path.  Effectively what you aid is correct but that's not exactly how it internally works.08:18
Ophiocusexecution serch path, that sounds promising for managing appz08:18

runevipozdiy: Yeah, it does.  Problem is, I don't _like_ FVWM. :-/11:18
KyralLike I said I've been using Linux long enough that I know exactly what I need, and what I like, so I just tweaked Flux to be that :D11:18
runevipozdiy: While I _love_ KDE. :-)11:18
nickrudthomas, no, get gammapage, it's a python app. you can adjust the gamma with that. To make it permanent, add a line Gamma to your monitor config in xorg.conf11:18
KyralI used GNOME, then XFCE11:18
{alejandro}kyral, can you use flux with xfce11:18
pozdiyrunevi, OK11:19
{alejandro}like replace xfwm11:19
Kyral{alejandro}: no idea11:19

pozdiythomas, blackbox and its derivatives use vector graphics for their widgets, wonder if any other WM does the same?11:20

Kibouin kde you actually can scroll from one desktop to the next..11:20
{alejandro}same in xfce11:20
runeviKibou: Okay?11:21

runeviKibou: and 'stop' in between?11:21

lilgEvening all, ive had a little trouble with my cd drive on my laptop, but i did find a 6meg mini iso which works but in installation something didnt install and failed11:37
runevipozdiy: The kernel I _can_ boot with doesn't have drivers that recognize the sata-controllers.11:37
pozdiyrunevi, sorry then11:37
lilgi can boot into ubuntu and get bash, can i see where it failed?11:37
runevipozdiy: The kernel I _cannot_ boot with recognized the sata-controllers .. ubuntu tries to use the drive, and the box hangs.11:37
runevipozdiy: It's probably a configuration file I just need to remove a line from.11:38
runevipozdiy: Or a rcX.d script I need to remove from a runlevel.11:38
runevipozdiy: But I'm fscked if it just checks the disk for an md-partition and goes bust if the partition is bust.11:38

nickrudNiZo_, the command you're looking for is invoke-rc.d11:48
lilgpozdiy: possible to copy the contents of this hard drive onto the laptop, this being almost fresh install?11:48
NiZo_nickrud, so the command "service" is "invoke-rc.d" ?11:49
JormundgandI need to find a way to get Firefox's Flash player to play through dmix. Currently if I try to dmix anything while a Flash movie is playing I get "Device or resource busy".11:49

nickrudjahshua, no, *if you resize the xp partition to make room for ubuntu. The installer can do that. (defrag before installing)11:53
jahshuai think i have already repartioned it, i reinstalled and i now have a c: drive, d: drive and a boot utility partition on my f12 menu at reboot11:53
mfarquharwhen you install you need to keep your existing XP partiton then add however many Ubuntu partitions 1-to-lots and a swap partiton about twice the size of your current ram11:53
nickrudif you don't care about d:, you can use that partition.11:53
jahshuaim using d: as my main one currently11:54
