[05:20] jeff_ii, what next? [05:20] MeeKs_ i sujest you add one other partition for /home the 10g for system will be mounted as / the root of the whole filesystem the media partition should be mounted some place like /home/storage or /storage or something like that. [05:20] jeff_ii: Do you know how to fix it/ [05:20] hey where is the bootup log (the bit that usplash usually hides)? [05:20] P8ntKid_> as far as I know, totem doesn't use them. mplayer does.

[05:21] mmm, seems like my machine likes the live CD, but doesn't like linux properly installed on it :S [05:21] P8ntKid_> they probably do through mplayerplug-in, which uses mplayer. so, using gmplayer, you should be able to play back those files, right? [05:21] What's it mean if I'm getting errors with rsync in /sys/devices, and should I even be including these? (Their all pci*) [05:22] P8ntKid_> how's mplayer misbehaving? [05:22] jeff_ii: Well its not playing .wmv and .avi [05:22] MeeKs_ you can use the 240g for /home if you like but i personally would not. i'd make one of about 2/5 g for /home and mount the big partition elsewhere [05:22] DJLILYAZI, well thers dozens of boot time options that may be helpfull.. but i got no clue what ones.. time to google for your specific pc/motherboard and linux - perhaps some forums/messages/sites may give a clue. === LathropWells [n=bill@cpe-67-49-70-101.socal.res.rr.com] has left #ubuntu ["Even] [05:22] jeff_ii: But, the mplayerplug-in for firefox plays them fine lol [05:23] dr_willis, i alreayd google my life away loooooooooooool [05:23] tonyyarusso: you should be excluding /dev, /proc, and /tmp [05:23] dr_willis, i dont know what to look for anymore ...you know what i mean [05:23] Alternatively, how can I make rsync just skip and forge onward on errors? [05:23] tonyyarusso: check the exclude option of rsync [05:23] P8nthKid_> i know. it's a bit of a mess these two. can you actually get anything from straight mplayer? === LathropWells- [n=bill@cpe-67-49-70-101.socal.res.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu [05:23] meuserj, Thanks.

The main install went relatively ok, a tad slow, but appeared to finish without error. Upon reboot, and after the splash, it began a second phase of the install, it got to about 82% and a message popped up saying something about one of the files not installing or being corrupt and I could manually try to install it to fix it and press enter to continue, but it brought me straight to a tty1 screen [05:23] and not the desktop, anyone with any ideas? [05:23] wweasel> how goes the battle? can you now launch firefox32 from the panels? [05:24] anyone know what basic package I might be missing.. when i'm compiling.. and getting: pwd.h: No such file or directory [05:24] DJLILYAZI, :) i got so many spare pcs i'd just install to a differnt one and swap out the hd;s [05:24] jeff_ii: No, it tells me i am missing a codec. [05:24] i follow the guide from the forum but not luck [05:24] MeeKs_ you can make your whole 240g partition accessable to any given user that way and not to all users, also it is an added precaution if you awax a partition your eggs are not all in one basket. [05:24] meuserj, Wait though, this is in /sys/devices, not /dev. [05:24] ntfs partitions are alrite for ubuntu?

[05:25] P8ntKid_> what's the exact message? it may well be that mplayer is configured to use a video output (vo) technique that your computer does not support, and reports it as not being able to find a codec that works, as where through firefox the plugin sets the video output, and thus workds. [05:25] meuserj, Okay. Time to try again. [05:25] tcpip no !

[05:25] jeff_ii: thats for mplayer [05:25] tristanmike> looks like your install cd's corrupted. you could proceed with a manual install (it may not have gotten to X and gnome yet) or try again with a new disc [05:25] DJLILYAZI, i often install on one pc.. then move its hd to another pc. [05:25] ugh [05:25] jeff_ii, i can, but i when i click a link in xchat it still opens in the old 1.0.7 [05:25] i have all my partitions on ntfs :( [05:26] im trying to compile intel's kernel module for my network card, but keep getting: include/linux/etherdevice.h:67: error: previous definition of 'is_multicast_ether_addr' was here [05:26] tcpip so swrink one and make free 'unpartitioned' space for the linux install. [05:26] can some one tell me if wchich entry should i use for tv-out on my tv? input 1, 2 or component thank you [05:26] tcpip, Ubuntu can read ntfs, but it can't write to it. So no, you can't install to ntfs; you'll have to reformat at least one partition. [05:27] jeff_ii, hmm, pressed copy, but if going manual, what should i do, just install ubuntu-desktop and see how it goes?

[05:28] dr_willis, what should i search for in google like my motherbored ? [05:28] DJLILYAZI, :P sounds like you may have a bad burnt cd.. or a dirty cd drive.. not sure what else to tell you [05:28] jeff_ii: Because i just downloaded a new one.

[05:29] imajuchi, i dont een know what you are trying to do. [05:29] tcpip need is not the correct term. swap is probably a good idea. but your system has enough ram it probably doesn't "need" swap to function [05:29] Perhaps he should try to turn off DMA with his particular cd drive?

Then I cd to /usr/src and it's not there, what's the issue? [05:29] any way to use ladspa plugins with gstreamer-based apps? [05:29] Agamotto, i dont think the installer enables dma by default [05:30] via svideo jeff [05:30] Hmmm, it did on my system === Agamotto shrugs [05:30] tcpip linux can use swap partitions and/or swap files === hou5ton [n=larry@n14-99-152-206.tranquility.net] has joined #ubuntu [05:30] imajuchi, my tv has a 'input' button on the remote to change the input it uses [05:30] intelikey: 512 megs ddr400 enuf [05:30] 'coz I've got a sweet stack of fx right now in xmms that make my mediocre multimedia speakers sound sweeeeeeet [05:30] wweasel> hmm. must admit I'm not using xchat, but I would expect it to use gnome's preferred applications. if you try to open a link from, let's say, Evolution (if you use it), where does it open?

[05:32] jeff_ii, no e-mail client yet. just trying to get it to work first (i haven;t used linux before) [05:32] im getting stuck there because i believe i have all the configuration right [05:32] tcpip yes it will run on that without any swap. not that the channel owners want me to recommend that you have no swap partition. this box has 64m ram and no swap running linux as we speak. [05:32] Anyone know how to rip an Audio CD using gtkpod to the iPod directly? [05:32] yes [05:32] xsmogx: you need to enter your user password when using sudo [05:32] xsmogx, You need your normal user password that you log in with. [05:32] jeff_ii, trying a built in game's online help [05:32] tonyyarusso: the resizer will help even when i have data on a big partition or i partition it with partition magic or something? [05:33] jeff_ii, went into blackjack, clicked online help it brought me to the 1.5 [05:33] Swap isn't needed, but it is very convenient when running 10 - 15 programs at once [05:33] khermans> aren't you skipping a few steps here? (or did gtkpod receive a cd-ripping capability recently)? my understanding that you rip and encode to mp3 first, then transfer to ipod via gtkpod... [05:33] tcpip, First, forget about Partition Magic. I used it on two different computers, and both times it worked once and was no longer able to read the partition table after that. [05:33] dr_willis, yeah i am going to do that... [05:33] jeff_ii, supposedly gtkpod required grip [05:34] wweasel> did your changes to preferred applications stick? (are they still set to custom?) [05:34] dr_willis, what to hear something so funny ? [05:34] DJLILYAZI, sure..... [05:34] jeff_ii, yes [05:34] tcpip it is not a question of if it will run the system or not. it is a question of will you be asking the system to open enough ram eating apps at any given time to cause the system to use all avalable ram and there by cause an app to fail. [05:34] khermans> gtkpod doesn't seem to require grip on dapper... [05:35] dr_willis, the highly recomanded linux for my motherbord is ubuntu [05:35] dr_willis, loooooooooool [05:35] jeff_ii, im using breezy [05:35] dr_willis, like i am going crazy here with this linux stuff...

[05:35] khermans> according to packages.ubuntu.com, it doesn't in breeze either...

[08:42] LightShear, I would guess it doesn't matter, but I haven't tried with KDE yet. The one you install first will determine which login manager gets set to run, but you can change that later too.

[08:47] Stork, cedega is free in my mind cuz the stole wine and made it commercial which in turn makes them grimey bastards [08:47] One thing I'm still confused about though: Does there have to be someone on the computer you're trying to connect to with VNC, logged in, and able to accept your connection? Could you set it up so the server computer would only have to be turned on, and be able to log in and authenticate yourself? [08:47] hicksy, try making the dir thats giving you the error: sudo mkdir /usr/share/X11/fonts/truetype [08:47] odat, nobody forces you to use cedega, you can stick with wine.. === nimrod-ab [n=nimrod-a@203.213.194.173] has joined #ubuntu [08:47] well i have to go to school [08:47] There is a cvs version of cedega.

Can I ask: my lspci says "Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corp. 82801DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) AC'97" but dmesg has nothing about audio, sound or multimedia. Is this supposed to be so? This is a Fujitsu laptop. [09:06] Linfanguin: ..... huh??

[09:07] he wants me to put XP back on the box which would just suck [09:07] pastebin [09:08] Linfanguin, If it's more than two or three lines, pastebin.

Then he won't be tempted by the ploys of the Evil One (tm) [09:09] techone: Dual-boot here, but only in theory; I think I've actually booted XP once in the last couple of months, and that was because I had neglected to get libdvdcss2, and didn't want to take the time to when a friends was here to watch a movie. [09:09] tonyyarusso: lol === zdra [n=zdra@81.247.167.234] has joined #ubuntu [09:09] i posted everything on the screen just to make sure i did not miss nothing-is under the name linuxfanaticguin [09:09] Linfanguin, what kind of install do you have, server? apparently u'd better install normal ubuntu, get a grip on it and after a while install server if u have a need for it and know how how linux works === Beleys [i=sauget@tolkien.iut-bm.univ-fcomte.fr] has joined #ubuntu [09:10] To repeat my question: is it ok if an integrated motherboard device is on "lspci" but not on "dmesg", or is this a signal of an error condition? [09:10] ok XP is bad but how do I fix firefox [09:10] Linfanguin: url ? [09:10] polpak, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6636 [09:10] Anssi_ if its not on dmesg chances are it isnt installed [09:10] Anssi_: Driver isnt installed [09:10] n3x that means that the lilo is installed in the mbr of a hard disk that is not the one that the machine will boot from. Thats a problem if you don't have a boot loader, but ok if you use a boot loader on the first disk. [09:10] Linfanguin: ok, just change the timeout to 0 and save the file [09:11] ok when I installed this box it was kernel 2.6.5 but now here is also 2.6.10 and 2.6.12 [09:11] techone, I don't really know what to do about your error, but have you tried reinstalling the firefox package? [09:11] blue Frog, i have default ubuntu install [09:11] could these upgrades have caused conflicts [09:11] How can it then be on lspci, I don't see the logic here. How can it be on the pci bus, if kernel never detected it on starup? === soci0path [n=user@net34-155.netkaster.ca] has joined #ubuntu [09:11] garry theres only 2 disks../dev/hda and hdb.. hda is / hdb is /home ... Ive never had this issue before and lilo is trying to install onto hda [09:11] That was for n3x [09:11] Linfanguin, then the password asked when sudoing is your password.. [09:12] techone: install a metapackage like linux-image-686. it will always depend on the latest kernel and you don't have to worry about kernel updates [09:12] anyone know where the synaptic source list is located? [09:12] techone: you have a locales problem, my guess is that it isnt limited to firefox. [09:12] the guy with this box is complaining that the box keeps crashing and mroe often then when it was XP [09:12] Anssi_: it will only see it if the kernel has a driver for it [09:12] Anssi_: lspci just scans the bus afaik, it doesn't mean that the kernel drivers were loaded for the device [09:12] odat /etc/apt/sources.list [09:12] topyli, how does this metapackage scenario work [09:12] techone: what is actually crashing? specific soft? or everything? or the system? [09:12] is there a doc somewhere I can read up on [09:12] !metapackage [09:12] A meta-package is a package that simply depends upon other packages and brings them in. It's not a real package, but a very useful package that can drag in other package versions. === yikes [n=yikes@pool-71-252-222-113.dllstx.fios.verizon.net] has joined #ubuntu [09:12] techone: metapackaes have no files but dependencies === paul_ [n=paul@neo.demon.nl] has joined #ubuntu [09:13] ah [09:13] o.k i removed 3 and typed in 0-im looking for the save function but i dont see it? is it writeOut? [09:13] odat, synaptic is just a front end for apt [09:13] techone: oh, look at ubotu's explanation ^ [09:13] Linfanguin: yes [09:13] Linfanguin: the ^ means CTRL [09:13] When using VNC, how do you scale the screen to fit without scrollbars within the bounds of your taskbar and panel? [09:13] Linfanguin: so writeout would be CTRL-O [09:13] n3x whats on each disk, which disk do you want your machine to boot from, and you might wnat to check to see if the bios thinks has the drives reversed. I've seen that happen, were my machine would try booting the /hdb1. [09:13] !win me [09:13] dabaR__: Not a clue [09:13] and then i do append right? [09:13] ilba7r, yea bad choice of words [09:13] polpak thx, now I see the logic pci devices can be listed an identified with some globally registered codes, even if there are no drivers? === asdfafsd [n=monnand@219.142.86.101] has left #ubuntu [] [09:13] Linfanguin: so, on a intel box you want perhaps linux-image-686, on an amd box linux-image-k7 perhaps [09:14] Default install, onto hda.. the df -h shows it as hda [09:14] Linfanguin: append?? [09:14] aftertaf, well im told using firefox then scrolling the mouse a lot, openoffice was crashing on saves but he kept saving every two lines because of it === paul_ [n=paul@neo.demon.nl] has left #ubuntu ["Bye] [09:14] what could possibly cause it to think its switched? [09:14] Linfanguin: no, you just hit enter [09:14] is that all i have to do (cntrl-0) nothing else? [09:14] Linfanguin: CTRL-O will prompt you for the name to write [09:14] Linfanguin: hit enter [09:14] to save, ya, Linfanguin [09:14] Linfanguin: then hit CTRL-X [09:14] cool [09:15] then ctrl+x exits [09:15] techone, didn't alvyn have a 386 in the first place, then changed to 686. wasn't it working perfectly with 386? [09:15] cool [09:15] Linfanguin: now, to set up KDE [09:15] now to get kubuntu installed [09:15] hahaha [09:15] Linfanguin: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop [09:15] aftertaf, and then the screen settings were some screwed up 640x480 and 60 hz but squwiggly === Morg [n=Foo@cust-216-98-233-192.turbonet.com] has joined #ubuntu [09:15] sometimes it will switch if a cable is iffy, or like yesterday a fellow had forgot to plug in hda and the bios switched the hdb to be the drive to boot from. [09:15] actually it all apears to be 386 [09:15] techone: is it an nvidia card? [09:16] How do you create a subdomain, e.g. foo.bar.com [09:16] garry its definany detecting hda and hdb === hermies [n=julia@dsl-220-235-244-4.qld.westnet.com.au] has joined #ubuntu [09:16] i will switch the cable... [09:16] Asus AVX on board everything VIA - S3 graphics [09:16] sec [09:16] techone: for the kernel, grab the metapackage that is for the processor (k7 / 686) and you can also remove the older ones if you want [09:16] ok one sec-after i do sudo it will automatically install? === Hikaru79 [n=Hikaru79@d57-4-59.home.cgocable.net] has joined #ubuntu [09:16] Morg: do you have a domain? [09:16] dabaR_: Yes. [09:16] Linfanguin: it might prompt you for a Y/N type deal [09:16] Linfanguin: but yes [09:16] Does it require anything beyond modifying the Apache configuration? [09:16] Morg: probably DNS also [09:17] Morg: dns domain [09:17] well, ya, Morg, your domain has to have a DNS server set up. [09:17] mmm this computer is on breezy but the packages seem out of date, I've done aptitude update etc but ... for example ffox is still 1.07 instead of 1.5 and synaptic seems out of date 0.57.4 [09:17] ok this cpu is sempron 2200+ at 1500Mhz abd 32 bit not 64 bit [09:17] And that DNS server would then hold records what computer is what name. name.domain.org [09:17] OK, and then what do I need to do in Apache? [09:17] hermies: firefox 1.5 isn't in breezy [09:17] polpak and n3x, here follows my list of *snd* modules, is this ok, when lspci says "Intel Corp. 82801DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) AC'97...": snd_intel8x0 snd_ac97_codec snd_pcm_oss snd_mixer_oss snd_pcm snd_timer snd soundcore snd_page_alloc [09:17] polpak, eh? [09:17] is sempron a 64bit chip? === MrKeuner [n=ping@unaffiliated/mrkeuner] has joined #ubuntu [09:17] n3x i it boots, than its all good. if it don't check the drive order header under the bios boot menu, there will be two headers, boot priority and hard drives. It the hard drives and then the boot priority you might want to verify. [09:18] hermies, ubuntu updates don't specially applications updates [09:18] Morg: apache is a web server. it listens to port 80 on a computer it is set up on. unless you change the port, off course. [09:18] hermies, ubuntu updates don't specially follow applications updates [09:18] ok its booting back up now garry [09:18] Morg: that means, it has nothing to do with DNS. [09:18] oh...I thought my ubuntu box at home had 1.5 :| odd... [09:18] not with the new lilo tho [09:18] hi, why cannot fetchmailconf be installed? or is it just me? [09:18] hermies: they cannot update firefox in breezy because it'd break too many dependancies [09:18] Morg: you would install apache on the computer, then point your dns server to that computer. [09:18] hermies: firefox 1.5 will be in dapper === rhythminmind [n=vieris@ca-stmnca-cuda3-gen2b-87.vnnyca.adelphia.net] has joined #ubuntu [09:18] aftertaf, doing some research I confirmed that essentially everything before athlon 2200+ is 32bit and some 2200+ are 64 bit and basically everything after that is 64 bit [09:18] n3x cool, if it boots fine, that all is good. ") [09:18] polpak, ...right :| so memory leaks for me! [09:19] hermies: yeah.. memory is cheap though =p [09:19] MrKeuner: do you have universe enabled? [09:19] garry: Warning: /dev/hda is not on the first disk [09:19] lol :P [09:19] thats when i run lilo [09:19] hermies: still better than IE [09:19] wow thanks alot for everything-is installing [09:19] dabaR_: I'm aware of all this, except I was under the impression that you could have multiple subdomains using the same server. === Tomcat_ [n=Tomcat@p54A1B60F.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #ubuntu [09:19] garry the system is actually booted.. [09:19] Morg: you could, ya. [09:19] so what was that arrogent user paying me out for using debian for only last week in this channel saying ubuntu was more upto date *glares* [09:19] would i want to use a RAID or a LVM setup for a 4 disc sata ftp server storage and why? [09:19] dabaR_: So thats my question: How? [09:19] garry problem is when i run lilo to update the kernel [09:20] hermies: ubuntu stable is more up to date than debian stable [09:20] Morg: read the apache manual, or ask at #apache, if noone knows here. it is called virtual servers, afaik. [09:20] now to get my wpa working :}-i will research this [09:20] When using VNC, how do you scale the screen to fit without scrollbars within the bounds of your taskbar and panel? [09:20] polpak, lol :P [09:20] techone: is the pc on breezy? has anything else been installed or compiled on it, or any backports installed? [09:20] garry Checking bios stuff now [09:20] hermies: and dapper is just around the corner [09:20] polpak, is there an equivilant to unstable/sid [09:20] ? [09:20] hermies: breezy [09:20] lvm or raid? [09:20] 2.14 isn't released for months [09:20] hermies: err dapper [09:21] so one can run dapper? isn't that more like debian experimental though? [09:21] hermies: dapper flight 2 was just released [09:21] ah okay :D [09:21] dabaR_: I thought this was #apache damn it. Ubuntu IRC must have sent me here automatically. I typed in /join #apache and hit enter, so I didn't notice. [09:21] mmm === rjs [n=ubuntu@71-8-63-51.dhcp.leds.al.charter.com] has joined #ubuntu [09:21] hermies: it's still a beta [09:21] n3x then the warning is nothing to worry about. I get the same thing because when I update kernel, because my first disk is windows xp and my third is linux and I use system commander to choose what to boot. I would not worry about it, if evertyhing boots fine, than ignore warning, its fine. [09:21] rhythminmind: raid gives you miroring and fault tolerance. If you require this, go for raid [09:21] hermies: anyone can run it - but it could be very very buggy, you never know with the latest lot of upgrades! [09:21] hey [09:21] techone: I take it you're ignoring the XP range of Athlon processors? Speeds upto 3000+ (I have a 2800+) all 32 bit. [09:21] Hobbsee: spoilsport... ;) === BenC [n=bcollins@debian/developer/bcollins] has joined #ubuntu [09:21] cause this ram problem is rather annoying...and my mother is complaining (this is her pc) that linux is always crashing (and it was hard enough to get her onto it to start with) [09:21] i just want a stripped setup [09:22] Morg: I generally find it is a good idea to do "/topic" for the first message to the channel, altho I always forget to do it... [09:22] no tolerance [09:22] polpak, it says select display manager-i chose gdm instead of kdm is this correct? [09:22] does anyone know how to reset a motherboard??? [09:22] Linfanguin: yes [09:22] Hobbsee, lol ...if it was me I'd probably run it... atm my debian box is half sid and half experimental (yay for wanting gnome 2.12 now :P) [09:22] how [09:22] aftertaf: well, i dont really like seeing people come in here and whine, expecting it all to work first go, no problems - it is a development release, after all! [09:22] rjs, read your manual [09:22] rjs: for bios passwords? [09:22] reset jumper lok at the manual [09:22] n3x and polpak: aplay -l lists my PLAYBACK AUDIO DEVICES seemingly ok, although with a lot of technical details... [09:22] Hobbsee: i like dapper :) [09:22] garry it boots fine but i cant update the kernel to 2.6.15 [09:22] hermies: got major changes in X at the moment - you may want to wait [09:22] moodog, no im not ignoring those processors I said sempron which is categorically not athlon [09:22] rjs, sif tell you to change jumpers and you change the wrong one and blame us for blowing up your board [09:22] aftertaf: same here, it's all iv'e booted to for the last while [09:22] Anssi_ does aumix work and see the card? [09:22] i cant get on to my other computer [09:22] hermies: I have the same issue w/ my father in law.. OO keeps dying on his power point presentations... [09:23] Hobbsee, 6.8 > 6.9? [09:23] only some times [09:23] debian did that last week [09:23] not sure [09:23] Morg, http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/DNS-HOWTO-7.html#ss7.5 [09:23] and google for more info, you can install webmin-bind as well...

[02:19] gepatino: like what? [02:19] well the ubuntu 5.10 install file says its 715mb... that sound right? [02:20] let's hear it gepatino [02:20] Steve|: it depends what pkgs u want to install === cetanhota [n=wayne@cpe-204-210-239-223.columbus.res.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu [02:20] onkarshinde, many people doesnt have a broadband connection available all the time [02:20] Steve|: yep. it's compressed on the cd. [02:20] onkarshinde, irvin (like me) === toca [n=toca@93.Red-83-43-196.dynamicIP.rima-tde.net] has left #ubuntu ["Me'n] [02:20] Steve|: If you are talking about ISO then I think that is correct. [02:20] so they can update using cd`s [02:20] Steve|: I'd recommend 10gig for /usr & 2gig for / [02:20] pkgs ? [02:21] onkarshinde, irvin and it would be great to have some offline updates [02:21] gepatino: I was one of those people before last months [02:21] if they dont have broadband connection === njan [n=james@unaffiliated/james] has joined #ubuntu [02:21] onkarshinde - yeah talking about the iso [02:21] Steve|: after u've installed ubuntu - u can add additional packages at any time - just download [02:21] gepatino, lookie here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NonBroadbandUsers [02:21] could you describe those kind of packages for me === grayman_ [n=grayman@85-65-195-125.barak-online.net] has joined #ubuntu [02:21] I used to use deb-downloader, a bunch of perl scripts that allowed you to download packages in another machine [02:21] gepatino, there's a script already in dapper to do that for you [02:21] ok [02:22] :-) [02:22] Steve|: better if you try it out for yourself - the name of the pkg manager is 'synaptic' [02:22] I'd rather take a loog first [02:22] ok [02:22] a look, sorry [02:22] thanks [02:22] Steve| : from a newbie point of view packages are additional software === toca [n=toca@93.Red-83-43-196.dynamicIP.rima-tde.net] has joined #ubuntu [02:22] oh i see [02:22] Steve|: It is 617 M [02:22] oh [02:22] yep sorry, i was looking at the wrong file [02:23] irvin, the problem i had with those scripts was that the machine where you want to download the scripts should have perl installes === BenC [n=bcollins@debian/developer/bcollins] has joined #ubuntu === jar [n=jordi@81-202-38-57.user.ono.com] has joined #ubuntu [02:23] Question: What exactly does sudo apt-get dist-upgrade do compared to sudo apt-get update ? [02:23] irvin, and a cyberbar, you mostly find win machines w/o perl [02:23] lowman62 - so how do I run windows applications/games/etc on a linux based system? [02:24] SweetestSavage sudo apt-get update just updates your sources list [02:24] irvin, so I thought it would be nice to have an ubuntu-to-go update system [02:24] gepatino, i think the script uses wget to download the packages [02:24] Steve| : I use a emulator called wine === hzg [n=myhat123@59.52.75.75] has joined #ubuntu [02:24] irvin, something like this: [02:24] and dist-upgrade does a system upgrade === gerryxiao [n=gerr@219.138.206.199] has joined #ubuntu [02:24] is it efficient [02:24] hello,all [02:24] actually i mean === RedGhost [n=bp2626@S0106000c6e212de6.vf.shawcable.net] has left #ubuntu [] === RedGhost [n=bp2626@S0106000c6e212de6.vf.shawcable.net] has joined #ubuntu [02:24] irvin, you use synaptic, but instead of downloading files, you just create an update definition file [02:24] how big of a difference is it when using wine than say just using that windows app on windows [02:25] Whistler, interesting, so if I was to do dist-upgrade.. would it upgrade my system from breezy to dapper? [02:25] irvin, then you submit it to a server [02:25] what is ubuntu? any difference with other distros? [02:25] Steve| : it works for me [02:25] well like in speed === mwe [n=mwe@port462.ds1-ynoe.adsl.cybercity.dk] has joined #ubuntu [02:25] SweetestSavage not yet, but generaly yes [02:25] i like this limewire [02:25] irvin, the server gathers all the packages for you, creating a big package [02:25] gepatino, it's part of synaptic, File/Generate package download script [02:25] Steve|: It depends on what games you want to play. Talking about other apps, there is always some alternative in Ubuntu [02:25] Whistler, ah I see.. so when Dapper is ready, I can just do dist-upgrade.. and it will automatically upgrade my system to Dapper? [02:25] ah ok [02:25] irvin, and then you download the packages from the website, w/o using wget [02:25] Steve|: I really don't see any real difference...I mean I use wine for a fixed number of applications that I must use and it works perfectly [02:25] gepatino, you can later import the stuff File/add downloaded package [02:26] gerryxiao: Its all about choice. [02:26] Looks like our Windows servers maybe only allow Kerberos. We have trouble finding Kerberos support for Nautilus. Any hints? [02:26] SweetestSavage yeah, you might need to edit your sources.list before [02:26] irvin, ok, i should have looked :O [02:26] say like... counter-strike, etf (quake3 mod) or somthing along those lines? [02:26] Whistler, alrighty, thanks =) [02:26] np :) [02:26] Steve|: For office, multimedia there are already packages in Ubuntu [02:26] any features specially? [02:26] Steve|: but I am not a gamer and there maybe something better for games [02:26] onkarshinde? [02:26] oh ok cool [02:27] Steve|: quake3 runs natively in linux and cs runs in wine [02:27] Steve|: in the linux world all those things you would normally have to install already come with ubuntu like office software [02:27] gerryxiao: It provides just enough packages for a desktop instead of installing every package available === [A] ndy80 [n=wettreyw@host48-152.pool8249.interbusiness.it] has joined #ubuntu [02:27] would you guys say ubuntu is smoother/faster than windows? [02:27] !smb [02:27] app: Are you smoking crack? [02:27] irvin, is that in dapper only? [02:27] gepatino, yes [02:27] ( trappist ): does cs run as smooth or smoother? [02:27] gepatino, it is still under development [02:27] !ntfs [02:27] rumour has it, 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 [02:27] app: !samba will work [02:27] onkarshinde,that, gentoo can do [02:28] !samba [02:28] I guess samba is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SettingUpSamba or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently [02:28] Steve| : I have been running ubuntu now as a test for 68 days without a reboot and with very little problems...this is the most unbroken linux I have used thus so far [02:28] gerryxiao: But you have to compile everything in gentoo not on Ubuntu. [02:28] lowman62 - i see, sounds good. [02:28] Steve|: technically slightly less smooth, since directx calls are being translated to opengl calls on the fly, as well as win32api calls to their linux counterparts, but you'd have to watch your fps counter pretty close to see the difference [02:28] haha btw, how is ubuntu pronounced? === TaLi [n=TaLi@mx.nuxo.net] has joined #ubuntu [02:28] trappist - ah ok, thanks === yancheng [n=yccheok@60.48.162.163] has joined #ubuntu [02:29] onkarshinde, any others? [02:29] Steve|: and yes..unlike windows that really will not make any use of the gig of ram you have...ubuntu uses it...my machine flies [02:29] irvin, where can i read more about it? === rapha [n=rapha@dialin112151.server4you-dsl.de] has joined #ubuntu [02:29] irvin, maybe i could help somehow [02:29] Hi all! [02:29] lowman62 - haha, i only have 512mb :| [02:29] gerryxiao: I haven't tried many distros. So can't tell you [02:29] gepatino, go to #ubuntu-motu and try to get in touch with mvo [02:29] Steve| i pronounce it like [ short u, buntu] [02:29] irvin, ok, thanks [02:29] oh,nevermind [02:29] Steve|: 512 is more than enough. even 256 work ok [02:29] gepatino, or #ubuntu-devel [02:30] Steve|: believe it or not windows doesn't use all that ram...reports it does but does not in reality...ubuntu will [02:30] How can you configure Apache so that a second VirtualHost directive doesn't overwrite a first VirtualHost directive? [02:30] onkarshinde, i mean in ubuntu [02:30] haha interesting [02:30] \ #ubuntu-devel [02:30] ups === Trackilizer [n=Trackili@p54AEF379.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #ubuntu [02:31] Hey guys.

And the package management is really good [02:31] how do you guys think ubuntu would run on my machine? - amd xp 1700+, 512mb ram [02:31] Need your help, how do i check the exact name of the video card and sound card being used at the moment? === writer [n=ivan@217.77.113.1] has joined #ubuntu === zamuro [n=manuel@201.208.199.106] has left #ubuntu ["It] [02:31] Steve|: Using same configuration.

The idea is that this old pc will monitor and record the video from the camera and enable me to view images using my web browser on other PC's in the home. [02:40] Jowi: a file system check didn't help [02:40] the problem is the software that comes with the camera is Windows based [02:40] yancheng: Gnome baker forum http://gnomebaker.sourceforge.net/forum/viewforum.php?f=1&sid=cda1fe68d39fc45d7e2f6fc3f6657dee [02:40] I have just downloaded ubuntu and have no idea whatsoever what to do after I've installed it === BirdyKiller [i=ohmygoth@075M13.oasis.mediatti.net] has joined #ubuntu [02:41] tom: alright, was worth a try. no errors reported though?

[02:42] Jowi: but i/o bandwidth is okay [02:43] yes, I did see this but got put off as it seems quite technical to install [02:43] tom: personally i would re-install and format the disks and re-write the partition table. but i'm drastic.

[04:57] If it's not plugged into Ethernet it will sometimes hang on boot and will usually only last 5-10 minutes [04:58] SMART values are all within thresholds [04:58] anyone?

[05:02] i.e. can you toggle the LED on and off? [05:02] Yeah, I checked and the dvd drive was not using dma, so I set /etc/hdparms.conf [05:02] No, hard lockup.

[05:04] psusi: yes [05:05] is there a command to get it to rebuild itself? [05:05] D-rock, im having awful luck getting my systems temp sensors working [05:05] Whether I let it sit there or if I'm typing in recovery mode :( [05:05] AndyL: where does it crash?

[07:09] idefix: not usually, unless you've disabled your firewall [07:09] khermans: you still have to give them executable permissions [07:09] and ignore update messages [07:09] idefix_: Good luck to them... it's harder than you think :) [07:09] so, if i put a .py file on my website, and a user downloads it on a new install of Breezy, double-clicking the file will run it without a user prompt?

[07:10] is there any package recover of rar archive passwords? [07:11] who else is from brazil? [07:11] so I did not track specific gnome issues or complaints but if a better/cleaner/tighter program comes along, gnome will not consider it for a long time because of the policy to minimize change to end users [07:11] JoeBlow, may want to see if theres a Q2 wiki page - Q2 is quite old - and there may be a lot of little issues [07:11] is there any package for recovery of rar archive passwords? [07:11] Dr_Willis: I use sh to run it right? [07:11] dsonc?

[07:12] rahuller, i think there is a way to unencrypt the data without the password [07:12] JoeBlow, perhaps.. it all depends.. look at the file and see if its a bash shell.

[09:40] Kindred:disk1.iso [09:40] Kindred:oops, sorry [09:40] e_machinist, you should have a menu item for it [09:40] Can I put a space between entries in a grub menu? (I want to separate the normal two things to boot from recovery options, backup kernels, etc., so my family isn't confused.) [09:40] C-O-L-T, if you use apt-get do this; apt-get install packageName; shutdown -h now if you are downloading something from somewhere do like this : wget http://somesite.com/package; shutdown -h now [09:40] afief, nope. Though if you're so inclined, xwpe is a turbo-c-like IDE. Would recommend learning new tricks tho. [09:41] odat: a menu item? [09:41] mjr, the problem isn't the IDE, it's the includes etc [09:41] C-O-L-T, yes .. sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop; sudo shutdown -h now [09:41] mjr, there's no conio.h on linux [09:41] anyone know if it's OK to add an unstable debian apt repository to install a single package? [09:41] e_machinist, in the applications menu under system tools [09:41] tonyyarusso: yes, that's no problem.

[09:41] albacker: but now I can not write to the Konsole because now it is working downloading the gnome, now i can not do it right?

And I am required to run firestarter as root (sudo). [09:42] afief, if they want to compile your programs on their windows boxes they can download and install (free of charge) cygwin [09:42] C-O-L-T, stop it by doing ctrl+c, than type the command again, and the download will start where it was ! [09:42] Hey, I'm running dapper, and I've been running gtkpod from source... There was an update and I'm now getting this error message: [09:42] libstdc++.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory [09:42] e_machinist, log out then log back in sometimes you have to do that in order to get programs to show up in the menu [09:42] ok so the issue is with booting windows with sata [09:42] odat: will do. [09:42] I recompiled and I got the same error.. what should I do?

[09:43] polpak: in this country, pirated software is the norm and original stuff is the VERY exception. i have windows here too, but too lazy to change all the time. also want to get my linux skills up [09:43] Okay, so this time around I was smart enough to put /home on a separate partition. However, I have since acquired quite large /music and /movies that I didn't have before. Any way I can make those be separate partitions before a reinstall so I don't loose them? [09:43] howto add repositores? [09:43] which files system is badger using ext3 reiserfs or something else? [09:43] Jowi: Okay, will try that.

Right now the two media ones are just part of the / partition, but I'd like to isolate them beforehand. [09:44] afief, you'll have to use stdio instead [09:44] kindred, does that work in nano? [09:44] C-O-L-T, ok, write them somewhere,. but you'll learn more during time.. belive me. now just do what people here say and youll start to understand and remember :) [09:44] which files system is badger using ext3 reiserfs or something else? [09:44] john_, sure that's why I said it [09:44] albacker: i see [09:45] polpak: well, i don't mind conio.h if i can find simple replacements for some functions(clearscreen, getcharacter...etc) [09:45] techone: Breezy uses ext3 by default [09:45] polpak, there's a "linux-conio.h" which you might or might not find helpful and that I don't know anything more about at http://www.gerald-friedland.de/projects.html [09:45] kindred, do you know how to select all? [09:45] tonyyarusso, using a livecd u should be able to resize / [09:45] someone? how do i make a module load at startup? i found the right module for my soundcard and it works, but it want it to run when ubuntu starts [09:45] Jowi: I do have a spare desktop computer, and backed the entire disk up to it with rsync last night. So, if necessary, I can get stuff back from that, but it takes a little while. Was wondering if there's a better way. [09:45] afief, you can't do clear screen.

[09:57] anyone know how i run fsck on a hard drive when i'm running off a live cd [09:57] BearHunter, and then u redo all the config... [09:57] ok merci bq [09:58] odat, I think you just point fsck at the device and it goes [09:58] BearHunter, it could still be broken whilst running. I think making a vmware (or similar) image of your perfect server setup and then backing that up to somewhere would be better. if the running vmware server got broken somewhere, you could load up a fresh copy of your server complete with config [09:58] Seveas, please unban mmolina so that they have a chance to learn some etiquet and so that they dont go back to microsoft. those end users get easily frustrated and humans just want to know they were heard in the forest of noise.

So I did it but when I get to grub it sticks so my fix for that was to just put my windows cd in. Then it would let me boot into whateve [11:57] r I wanted.
