nalioth | Aviatrixie: configure it for what? | 05:28 |

Aviatrixie | for wep and all that stuff | 05:28 |

benplaut | not too hard, but takes a while | 05:29 |

Fiyawerx | yeah, i had actually used that to get it working before | 06:37 |
Fiyawerx | but wanted to try the other way, right from cvs | 06:37 |
dooglus | kestas: you ran firefox from your bash prompt? | 06:37 |

some_dude | not found failed | 07:43 |
Xenguy | GTroy: glad to hear it :-) | 07:43 |

nalioth | globe: if XP uses the vnc protocol, yes | 08:42 |
Jeeves_moss | pashaw: no idea. As I said, all I know is that this server forces you to rin a program called "smartstart" from Compaq to "set up" the hardware, and the RAID.

petz | diemex that happens to me sorry I dont know why | 10:37 |
garry | IF Dashiva is still here, he would know better than me I think. | 10:37 |

intelikey | petz or limit the speed with eject -x ## | 10:37 |
petz | but using commands should always work diemex | 10:37 |
Dashiva | that's what i'm saying | 10:37 |
mustard5 | diemex, thats how it works in linux | 10:37 |
Dashiva | you need to get totally rid of it and go to mozilla-plugin | 10:37 |

painkiler | so how do i get a secondary cd drive to become primary | 11:00 |
mustard5 | No1Viking, its not stable | 11:00 |
painkiler | because atm, terminal is using cdrom | 11:00 |
painkiler | i want it to use cdrom0 | 11:00 |
mustard5 | No1Viking, it could break at any time during development | 11:00 |
deFrysk | No1Viking, fairly stable for non crucial systems | 11:00 |
ilba7r | edidiedaman you can also try typing totem plugin in the search in synaptic will give you two packages which you can uninstall, one for totem-xine the other for totem-gstreamer | 11:00 |

mustard5 | Mabus06, down the page a bit | 11:24 |
mustard5 | Mabus06, I also got some hits on some threads in the ubuntu forums | 11:24 |
garry | Mabus06 So you have this Ati card with one connector, so when you say you want to do duel video, you mean that you have two monitors connected to a switch going to the one card vga port? | 11:24 |

=== Samuel [n=IcedZeph@p54A54AB2.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #ubuntu | ||
garry | EddieDaMan not that I am sure of. I've been thinking of trying licq. Gaim seems to be only for instant messenger, and it claims to work for icq and maybe others like msn, but the plugins are not included. | 11:26 |
knotty_ian2005 | mustard5, i just bought this smart tv card, too bad its from taiwan and i had to return the pixelview coz it got problem | 11:26 |
mustard5 | garry, gaim will work with ICQ by default | 11:27 |
JDahl | have anyone got DVD playback in kaffeine working? I install libdvdcss2, but kaffeine keeps giving the error message "Could not read title information for DVD" | 11:27 |
knotty_ian2005 | mustard5, this tv card is for my laptop , a pcmcia one, that i chose | 11:27 |

mustard5 | knotty_ian2005, I did lots of reading and then finally got it working on xawtv | 11:28 |
garry | EddieDaMan There is also goim wiich is suppposed to be for instant messenger. Hmm. I could never find the part to enter my icq number, and it choked on my apostrophe in my icq name. It doesn't like those. | 11:28 |
mustard5 | knotty_ian2005, it took a lot of mucking around | 11:28 |
knotty_ian2005 | mustard5, i am not satisfied with what i am seeing, ( in windows) and its | 11:28 |
happycamper | gaum, too | 11:28 |
ilba7r | Jdhal try reinstalling kaffeine i think it looks for the plugin in when it is first installed. If it is not working totem is always there | 11:28 |

knotty_ian2005 | mustard5, kinda flickery, i tried to connect it on our cable tv cable and it's still flickery | 11:28 |

knotty_ian2005 | mustard5, do u think it's my laptop that's the problem or the tv card itself | 11:29 |

twysted | dn> i wouldnt advise it | 12:05 |
twysted | dn> you can damage your monitor | 12:05 |
mustard5 | Irvine, then you need to either cd ~/Desktop or put Desktop/ in front of the package name | 12:05 |
xav__ | wtf is this character : ? | 12:05 |
Happuf | Is it problem for mounting that my windows driver is sda1? | 12:05 |

Heimdall | PeteyPablo, because it is written in it : /usr/local/share/azureus/azureus and there is no so such file | 12:08 |
thoreauputic | !azureus | 12:08 |
ubotu | azureus is, like, a popular bittorent client written in Java, installation instructions can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AzureusHowTo | 12:08 |
Pygi | irvine: well, what seems to be the problem? | 12:08 |
dn | twysted, yes - hmm okay will try that - wondering why one pc with the same settings can do it and the other not.. | 12:08 |
Pygi | irvine: do you have java installed? | 12:08 |
Irvine | no | 12:09 |
Pygi | !java | 12:09 |
ubotu | To install Java/Sun Java see Java on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats and also see !javadebs | 12:09 |

ubotu | Java can be found in multiverse. Sun and IBM java packages can be found at http://seveas.ubuntulinux.nl/ | 12:09 |

dn | so maybe the gfx *hmm* | 12:10 |
twysted | dn> wow really weird then, it can be the gfx, more then likely is | 12:10 |
dn | twysted, gfx is working with windows and the screen - so we can narrow it down to the linux drivers (nvidia) :) | 12:10 |
Mabus06 | How do I find out the maximum refresh rate, vertical sync rate, and size of my monitor? I tried googling the model number on the back but it yielded nothing. | 12:10 |

Manifold | Manifold The documentation says it's safe to let Ubuntu resize the partition. | 01:52 |
Manifold | Manifold Can it resize NTFS? | 01:52 |
Inf3ctedFx | then check on "Aplications / Sound and Video / Xmms | 01:53 |
Chousuke | I wish Ubuntu were able to ship with restricted format support :/ | 01:53 |
thegladiator | Inf3ctedFx, i guess he needs to know about restricted formats . also he might want to enable multiverse | 01:53 |

dbzdeath | Chousuke: doesn't take much effort to just enable them | 01:54 |

PeteyPablo | i dont care what anyone says, bmp sucks and xmms owns | 02:17 |

SuperLag | doh! | 03:17 |
dodobrain | (2) it says that deb is in the ubuntu-server-install-amd64 image. | 03:17 |
dodobrain | now maybe looking through the other lists is a good idea too if you're not talking about amd64 arch. | 03:17 |
deejoe_ | thanks anyway, the gladiator | 03:17 |
Draken | wtf are u talking about | 03:17 |

x-spirit | i run ubuntu for a first time, so no ideq.. | 03:45 |
pilgrim | BrianB04, no ...KDE is eval. I mean evil. | 03:45 |
dodobrain | PeteyCrack, but did you try it on this lcd? | 03:46 |
PeteyCrack | dodobrain: nah | 03:46 |
dodobrain | hehe.. KDe is eval ;) | 03:46 |
PeteyCrack | dodobrain: i like this | 03:46 |
dodobrain | see! | 03:46 |
kestas | pilgrim, what would happen if Qt suddenly decided to relicense its stuff anyway? | 03:46 |
BrianB04 | KDE is eval? KDE == ? | 03:46 |
dodobrain | you should have tried it on _this_ lcd. you might have liked it | 03:46 |
PeteyCrack | dodobrain: | 03:46 |

kestas | if I was going to write some software with userland threads which API should I use? | 03:48 |
kestas | is there a standard one? | 03:48 |

oblib | spikeh, you would have to move it after the install. A program on Linux needs more than just the executable though | 04:09 |
spikeh | oblib: coNP: I see, but I read somewhere that people mounted /home on a separate partition so when Linux is rebuilt all the applications/settings remain | 04:09 |
oblib | settings, not apps | 04:09 |
coNP | spikeh: okay, settings will be stored either in /etc or in /home/<user> | 04:10 |
pilgrim | coNP, spikeh, usually both. | 04:10 |
oblib | spikeh, getting apps is simple with Synaptic, and if the settings are carried over, it's like you lost nothing | 04:10 |

visik7 | andrew__: if it doesn't complain about missing packages you can use it | 04:49 |
andrew__ | apokryphos: when i used ubuntu, i recall it being incredibly difficult to create a .deb; do you know of any documentation? | 04:49 |
visik7 | andrew__: btw what program is ? | 04:49 |
andrew__ | visik7, ah, ok. cool. | 04:49 |
andrew__ | visik7, pygmy: http://pygmy.berlios.de | 04:49 |
apokryphos | ablyss: if X accepts it, with nvidia being used as the driver, then it worked. | 04:49 |
Seveas | andrew__, creating a deb is not the easiest thing, because there are lots of rules about quality | 04:49 |
apokryphos | andrew__: debian packaging is an art :) | 04:49 |
Seveas | apokryphos, so true :) | 04:50 |
apokryphos | andrew__: but there are a few guides about. One sec. | 04:50 |
ablyss | apokryphos, right.. but my previous installation of the driver would popup the nvidia logo during bootup.. i'm not getting the logo now though | 04:50 |
andrew__ | Seveas, apokryphos: not to flame, but that's one of the reasons i switched to arch. too high a learning curve to contribute packages on debian/ubuntu! | 04:50 |
apokryphos | andrew__: this is quite a good guide, but what's more valuable is the links it provides http://wiki.kubuntu.org/KubuntuPackagingGuide | 04:51 |
Seveas | andrew__, you just have to practice a lot and ask experienced packagers questions | 04:51 |
apokryphos | ablyss: in xorg.conf is nvidia specified as the driver? | 04:51 |

melissas | no messages...last message I saw , was rebooting...but it doen't reboot | 04:52 |
apokryphos | ablyss: then that should be working. You can check to see if Ubuntu knows it exists from an lspci|grep -i nvidia | 04:53 |
melissas | everything seems normal except rebooting | 04:53 |
apokryphos | (note that doesn't necessarily mean you had the driver installed) | 04:53 |

dbernar1 | benplaut: I can tell you that openbox is cool cause it has a "Ubuntu" skin - brown, check out ubuntuforums.org, and search for "openbox stormy", that will give you instructions. Also you can use the mouse scroll wheel to roll up windows, when you scroll up when the mouse cursor is over the title bar, which makes it convenient to have many windows open. It also supports workspaces. I never used black and flux boxes much, so I do not k | 05:29 |

gnomefreak | is ubuntu always gonna be debian based or can they pull out on own someday? | 05:58 |
bobbyd | theconartist, only if the functionality has to be emulated, for lot of games it's possible to run themat the same speed | 05:58 |

bobbyd | theconartist, it's a GF6 and XP2800 anyway, not so crazy :) | 05:59 |

gnomefreak | cocox, if its not in the repos you cant update it you have to install a new one and get rid of old one | 06:30 |
nickrud | that will get rid of the window diving into the panel, but it does some other stuff also that you may not like | 06:30 |

gnomefreak | cocox, theres alot more involved than that | 06:34 |
holycow | sethk, making sure the users cannot change permissions on file is one sure way of then not running unwarranted software ... as for not much protection i am not sure what that means. you cannot protect anyone from deleting their files if that is what the point is? | 06:34 |

albacker | pashaw, dunno. ive been compiling the last 3 days.. compiling deleting recompiling. i decided not to compile anymore. it looks like it doesnt work for me :( | 06:40 |
holycow | apokryphos, no, as a result of mucking about it occured to me that chmoding user dir's to 644 would prevent them from accidentally running stuff, removing their ability to chmod would lock it down fairly well. a regular user has no need for chmod in a sandboxed environment | 06:40 |

popey | so what's the general feel about upgrading to dapper now? :D | 06:53 |
holycow | okay so appearent "folders" haveto be 755 otherwise nautilus cannot open them, that kinda makes sense. can one traverse the file structure recursively and only set files withing all folders to 644 say? | 06:53 |

holycow | okay cool, you guys explained everything beatifully ... that brings me back to my earlier question ... how does one chmod all files in all subdirs 644 while leaving the dirs 755? | 07:07 |
cyphase | freddie, it works | 07:07 |
vilefridge | pashaw: correct, 5.10 | 07:07 |
cyphase | but you need to configure it | 07:07 |
gnomefreak | spikeh, in the settings in opera you should beable to make it default browser as you do with FF or ie yucky | 07:07 |
thegladiator | spikeh, you get the same performance with FF if not better . i think opera doesnt handle popus as wellas FF | 07:07 |
freddie | cyphase no it dont work | 07:07 |
sethk | holycow, find . -type f -exec chmod 0644 '{}' \; | 07:07 |
thegladiator | gnomefreak, does that work in linux ? making it default ? | 07:08 |
cyphase | freddie, did you restart firefox? | 07:08 |
spikeh | thegladiator: I have chosen to use Opera yet why are you challenging that? the first rule of support is to fix the issue at hand not to suggest new programs | 07:08 |
gnomefreak | thegladiator, it should | 07:08 |
freddie | cyphaseno dont nohow | 07:08 |
cyphase | whoa, whoa | 07:08 |

humbraro | if i do a 'chown -R user.group directory/*', it chowns the whole partition | 08:51 |
Edgan | humbraro: -R is recursive | 08:52 |

sethk | humbraro, actually, no. to change everything you need: chorn -R user:group directory/. | 08:52 |
humbraro | I know that, but does the whole partition, instead of starting where i tell it to | 08:52 |
noppe | anyone care to enligthen me on how to actually user gnome-user-share? I have it installed and I enabled it but I have no idea how to access it.. | 08:52 |

SEJeff | Ely, ubotu gave you a link to seveas website. It contains the deb you need to install but you have to manually download and install it | 08:57 |
humbraro | Edgan: the problem was, if i did 'chown user.group directory/*', it'd chown the entire partition (/home in this instance) | 08:57 |
Edgan | humbraro: The only difference between chown -R user:group directory/* and chown -R user:group directory would be that the owner and group of directory would be changed, not just the contents of it | 08:57 |

vilefridge | pashaw: new issue :) The hard drives in use were (2) 40GB drives. One with Windows 2000, the other with Ubuntu 5.10. I copied each drive to a striped 80GB array. Grub no longer presents a boot menu. Is there a way to reload grub without ruining the data? | 09:07 |
humbraro | either way, i got the syntax right now, so thanks very much | 09:07 |

titanium_platypu | thanks for the info. So, what games does Ubuntu come with (I don't need to know them all; I'm basically just interested in if it has a nice complement of them like Fedora does)? Also, I know what apt is, and what format of package does Ubuntu use? | 09:08 |

Edgan | titanium_platypu: The package format of Ubuntu is deb, like Debian, which it is based on | 09:09 |
garry | I prefer the new polkadot array myself. | 09:09 |

Sepheebear | vilefridge: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows | 09:10 |
titanium_platypu | okay, thanks.....so I guess my last question is, does it have a lot of nice little games? :-P | 09:10 |
vilefridge | pashaw: speed. I wanted to experience striped raptors, but ended up getting some NCQ seagates, on budget :P | 09:10 |
SEJeff | titanium_platypu, Ubuntu has the gnome-games that fedora has. All of them. It also has things "Battle for Wesnoth" "Lincity-ng" "Chromium" etc. Not a huge difference vs fedora as far as that goes | 09:10 |
Edgan | titanium_platypu: Most linux distros have all the same games | 09:10 |
skon | titanium_platypu: penguin racer is a good one :-D | 09:10 |
vilefridge | skon, sproingie, Sepheebear: Thanks for the info, I'll pop my Install disc in and give that a whirl! =) | 09:10 |
Edgan | titanium_platypu: If you want something especial you download the linux clients for FPSs, or run something like Cedega to play Windows games. | 09:11 |
garry | Except we don't have the kernel panic game usually, You have to work to install it. | 09:11 |
titanium_platypu | yeah, I know most of them have the same games....but Fedora is missing some of the really good ones like Chromium and stuff. | 09:11 |
titanium_platypu | I don't want anything special. | 09:11 |
SEJeff | titanium_platypu, Well Ubuntu has those | 09:11 |
titanium_platypu | It already sounds like it has a much better game selection than Fedora. | 09:11 |
titanium_platypu | Okay, thanks guys, I think I'll definitely do it. | 09:11 |
SEJeff | titanium_platypu, I play iagno, chromium, and battle for wesnoth all the time when I'm bored | 09:11 |
titanium_platypu | Oh, yeah, there was one more thing....is there anything that a lot of people use that Ubuntu doesn't come with? DVD player, etc. | 09:12 |
titanium_platypu | like will I have to tweak it? | 09:12 |
bshumate | Frozen Bubble is not installed by default, so you need to install that if you anticipate doing any gaming with Linus ;-) | 09:12 |
titanium_platypu | to get stuff that most people like to use? | 09:12 |
SEJeff | titanium_platypu, Well those things are patent encumbered and will never be installed by default | 09:12 |
garry | support for my epson CX6600 printer. oops, sorry bout that. | 09:12 |
SEJeff | titanium_platypu, Installing mp3 / divx support is super easy. Enable the universe / multiverse repository and install gstreamer0.8-plugins* | 09:13 |
BxL | titanium_platypu, there is a big "howto" to enable all the normal thing | 09:13 |
BxL | called the ubuntu starter guide. | 09:13 |

ubotu | from memory, ntfs is the filesystem used in Windows 2000 and newer; to automatically mount your NTFS partition: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions, or writing to ntfs is risky and only experimental. Reading is OK | 09:41 |

ubotu | from memory, ask the bot is to get information about common things, try asking me, the bot. You can private message me if your nick is registered(/msg NickServ HELP REGISTER) you can private message me, by using /msg ubotu mp3, for example. to find out whether a package is in the official !repos and in which one, /msg ubotu info packagename, or to find which packages contain a file/keyword, /msg ubotu find keyword | 09:42 |

self_ | ok ill give it a go | 09:43 |
jlund | So I have a history file from Synaptic of packages that I just installed to test that I would now like to remove.

dm | pashaw hehe.. | 09:43 |
dm | pashaw so far install was about 5x faster than breezy was | 09:43 |
riddlebox | self_: no lets say you want to run synaptic from commandline. sudo synaptic | 09:43 |
garry | self_, The logging in by root is disabled by defualt. It keeps the viruses out for one thing. Most all you need to do is put sudo before the command you want to execute, It asks for a password and you give it your regular user account password, then the command runs. | 09:44 |
jadewolf | Garry: do i just download the ubuntu 5.10 Install CD for my Arch? | 09:44 |

j2daosh | i would just log in as my other account but it seems everytime i log out i have a problem getting back in | 10:34 |
gnomefreak | Edgan, that is personal prefference all im saying is that being logged in as root or with sudo -i is unsafe | 10:34 |
gnomefreak | for long periods of time | 10:34 |
j2daosh | no no no... hell no... lol im using the account that cant seem to get root previes | 10:34 |

gnomefreak | i know evolution is too close to outlook for me | 10:43 |
pashaw | j2daosh, from home and work youd need a secure link like VPN to join the networks to use smb | 10:43 |

epp | gnomefreak... but kdevelop wont find the new set path of javasdk? it still looks in the original. | 10:45 |
j2daosh | no i dont need a vpn... i normally just set the rdp before i come to work... | 10:45 |
gnomefreak | chalcedony, thunderbird breaks less than evolution | 10:45 |
pashaw | sethk, yeah just wanted to be sure you knew what he was asking to do :) | 10:45 |
j2daosh | but then i got the ssh working on my linux box and wanted to use it because it doesn't use as much bandwidth and i hear it is more secure | 10:45 |

nalioth | epp: have you been to the kdevelop forums? or asked in #kubuntu ? | 10:46 |

pashaw | j2daosh, now you got it | 10:48 |
j2daosh | and i dont wanna just use ssh because? | 10:48 |
j2daosh | well nevermind | 10:48 |
pashaw | j2daosh, how will you ssh files off the windows box? | 10:49 |
sethk | j2daosh, I don't think anyone said not to use ssh | 10:49 |
j2daosh | ssh wont do that kind of connection and i would have to constantly load cygwin on the windows box to do it | 10:49 |
sethk | pashaw, I ssh files from my windows boxes every day | 10:49 |
chalcedony | ok i think what my husband is telling me is that he is trying to write to me and his Ubuntu is giving him all thes other mail clients. He doesn't know why .. | 10:49 |
pashaw | j2daosh, there are programs you could use i guess i always use VPNs tho | 10:49 |

j2daosh | well vpns make sense because they will always be connected and i wont have to have constantly load a program to do it | 10:49 |

mike-e | how do i find out what mixer i'm using | 10:50 |
pashaw | sethk, thx i know but thats not my preferred way thx tho | 10:50 |
sethk | pashaw, that's ok, but the point is it is not only possible but quite easy | 10:50 |
gnomefreak | Ricker, ubuntu is released every 6 months for starters | 10:50 |
pashaw | sethk, perhaps you could help j2daosh with this then | 10:50 |
Ricker | gnomefreak: ok I like that... any thing other reasons of the top of your head? | 10:51 |
gnomefreak | so its pretty much always newest packages and i love using sudo instead of su | 10:51 |
j2daosh | well connected as long as the computer is on... but as far as security goes with that... wouldn't it be more secure to set up a reverse ssh tunnel instead of a vpn? im not familiar too much with vpn so i dont know the security strengths associated with it | 10:51 |
sethk | gnomefreak, sudo is available on all flavors of linux and UNIX | 10:51 |

j2daosh | besides... i dont want to drive you to drinking... cuz then when i forget about not messing with root and chmod another /usr directory i will need you around to scold me :) | 10:53 |

sethk | Ricker, sudo is not super user do. it is "set user and do" | 10:54 |
sethk | Ricker, the user is root by default, which is the same as for su, set user | 10:54 |
sethk | Ricker, you can su or sudo to any user | 10:54 |
Ricker | sethk: oops. cool. thanks for correction | 10:54 |

gnomefreak | jhenn, what does it say? | 10:56 |
sethk | Ricker, the only thing different about ubuntu is that with the default, but _not_ expert, install procedure, the root password is not set and you have to set it separately if you want to log in as root | 10:56 |
j2daosh | well i thought you said i needed to do vpn in order to setup samba with max sexurity? | 10:56 |
jhenn | gnomefreak: wrong password and username | 10:56 |
sethk | Ricker, the difference between logging in as root and doing su is just whether or not you are already logged in. | 10:56 |
jhenn | gnomefreak: i just setup an account though | 10:56 |
kbrooks | lol | 10:56 |
Polly_Morf | sethk: Made a "reset" of kdevelop... removed all the configuration files :P | 10:56 |
pashaw | j2daosh, yes thats your long term goal right now lets stick to the simple stuff | 10:56 |
sethk | Ricker, the reason for having that is that on many machines root is disabled as a _remote_ login for security reason. | 10:56 |
Polly_Morf | always works | 10:56 |
Polly_Morf | ! | 10:56 |
ubotu | Polly_Morf: NO SPEAKE ENLISH! | 10:56 |
gnomefreak | jhenn, check the email you used yet? | 10:56 |
sethk | Ricker, so, if root cannot log in remotely, then sudo or su is the only way to get to be root | 10:56 |
j2daosh | ok... ill do that then :) thank you for your help again pashaw | 10:56 |

sethk | Ricker, true. The first thing I do with a windows box is install cygwin, which gives me the bash and zsh shells, among other great stuff. | 11:07 |
gnomefreak | ok good IRCMonkey | 11:07 |

Ricker | sethk: I see. have you ever tried netbsd/freebsd. before anyone gets on the warwagon. I don't want to start one. I was just curious if anyone here had used it and if what their feeling is. people take os's and programming language like religions.... | 11:10 |
IRCMonkey | i have amd xp (emachines) and i downloaded PC (Intel x86) install CD will it run on it? | 11:10 |
sethk | Ricker, the feel is very similar whether I'm in linux, freebsd, netbsd, or even solaris | 11:10 |
cvt|nixmas | know how to play embedded quicktime files? | 11:10 |
sethk | Ricker, especially at CLI, it is nearly identical | 11:11 |

Eleaf | nalioth, say I start with a 3 meg ogg file, I go to wav which makes it like 50 megs. then that recompresses as like 5 or 6 megs.. it needs to be smaller | 11:29 |
Eleaf | nalioth, on the lowest quality | 11:29 |

castlerock | ltibor65: did you check the options and preferences? It just might not be using the right sound output | 11:46 |
dfgas-diskless | what is a onscreen keyboard program called? for gnome | 11:46 |
Sepheebear | cvt|nixmas: mplayer is in multiverse in dapper too | 11:46 |
castlerock | ltibor65: it should be set to ALSA | 11:46 |
theCore | kbrooks, i want to use Python Server Page, so i need mod_python | 11:46 |
polpak | Draken, are you using Hoary? | 11:47 |
Nik---- | should the ubuntu installation partition be bootable? | 11:47 |
castlerock | ltibor65: and if Kmidi doesn't work at all, try Musica (do a search for it ;-) ) | 11:47 |
Sepheebear | in dapper the mplayer-$arch packages have been made into dummy packages | 11:47 |
navarone | Nik----, yes | 11:47 |
kbrooks | Nik----, yes | 11:47 |

chalcedony | how to play Mp3s in ubuntu? | 11:47 |
kbrooks | navarone, echo bounching around eh ;) | 11:47 |
kbrooks | bouncing* | 11:47 |
Sepheebear | dfgas-diskless: gok | 11:47 |
sethk | Nik----, doesn't matter | 11:47 |
ltibor65 | Mp3, vaw, audio cd gives sound, but midi no. | 11:47 |
kbrooks | sethk, who is right? | 11:48 |
navarone | ltibor65, if you are not getting sound at all you can also check "alsamixer" in terminal to make sure nothing is muted | 11:48 |
Vexor | Draken : if you don't need the proprietary kernel modules, you can get rid of the 3rd party module package. It is trying to use that nvidia package instead of your updated nvidia installation. That is why I came in here, dependency issues with that. | 11:48 |
navarone | yup kbrooks | 11:48 |
kbrooks | sethk, not you. end of story | 11:48 |
sethk | kbrooks, wrong. It doesn't matter. I just checked. | 11:48 |
