| |thunder-afk | TonInter, lets say you have 2 drives. one with a ntfs winXP partition, and another blank for ubuntu. When you get to the place where you caqn modify your partitions, create a 4GB ext3 partition, a 1 GB sweap partition and another partition in ext3 of the rest of the drive(or as much user space as you want). | 01:37 |
| pushpop` | is there a Ubuntu CBT training video out there by any chance? | 01:37 |
| virogenesis | amsn rocks | 01:37 |
| mhminai | Sorry for that. Was trying to leave :-( | 01:37 |
| |thunder-afk | TonInter, then it'll ask you where you want all your parts mounted. the 4GB one set to "/" the swap drive set to "swap" and the user space set to "/home" the the XP drive should be something like "/media/hda1" or you can change that to "/media/winxp" like I do. | 01:37 |
| jimmygoon | mhminai ... you meant /quit | 01:37 |
| jimmygoon | lolz | 01:37 |
| bruenig | pushpop' what is CBT? | 01:37 |
| mhminai | Thanks Jimmy | 01:37 |

| _azrael | DanaG: Why not just use binary cedega? (I wasn't aware that the cvs held any truly new compatability features) | 03:00 |

| bruenig | hyperpenguin, in the terminal you can generally do "whereis whatever" it will usually find it for instance "whereis libvte.so.4" will give you /usr/lib/libvte.so.4 | 03:22 |
| dr_willis_ | corevette, refdisk and format the partions, use the windows xp boot cd and run 'fixmbr' | 03:22 |

| BlueEagle | fensta: Also, unless you know that you need a new kernel or there are some critical security holes in the one you've got that you are unable to work around then you don't need to upgrade your kernel. :) | 04:39 |

| mlbb | first strike? | 05:15 |
| FirstStrike | mlbb: 71% isn't going to help us help you. we need the size of your hard drive, how much space remains, etc. to help you. | 05:15 |
| BlueEagle | payton_byrd: That is the same version I've got and the newest one in the repository. If you need a newer build then you will probably have to build it yourself. However if you rebuild your libc you may end up breaking a lot of applications. | 05:15 |
| mlbb | can't be much... | 05:15 |

| FirstStrike | not mb | 05:15 |
| johnny | can i download a windows n64 emulator to my linux partition and use wine to run it? | 05:15 |
| FirstStrike | a 256 mb drive wouldn't even hold windows xp | 05:16 |
| FirstStrike | 1000 MB = 1 GB | 05:16 |
| mlbb | then its gb.. | 05:16 |
| Payton_Byrd | Well, that probably explains why none of the repositories are publishing monodevelop 0.11 nor any of the latest versions of mono-common. | 05:16 |
| BlueEagle | firststrike: Don't you know that the new disk space requirements are listed as %. That's bloat ware for you. No matter how big your drive is the app still takes up 25% :p | 05:16 |
| FirstStrike | lol | 05:16 |
| mlbb | so should i click erase entire disk ide1 master (hda) and use free space? | 05:17 |
| FirstStrike | no | 05:17 |
| FirstStrike | not unless you want to lose everything on your windows drive | 05:17 |
| jramsey | Payton_Byrd, sudo apt-get install mono will not do what you want? | 05:17 |

| BlueEagle | payton_byrd: As a general rule the packages in the repositories are stable. Afaik monodevelop is not all that stable. If you really really want bleeding edge (read: broken) then there are other distros for you. You can also try to use Ubuntu Edgy (#ubuntu+1) which is the development version of the next release. It will however probably not work very well. | 05:19 |

| brent_ | so you guys arent gunna help me | 06:16 |
| brent_ | ether | 06:16 |
| uber_mort | frogzoo: Ok, if I just call fork() at the top of my script that should take care of it though, right? | 06:16 |
| brent_ | i will use syanpitic more | 06:16 |
| ttyfscker | uber_mort:: did you create a script and put it in /etc/init.d/ and create a sym link to /etc/rc2.d/Sxxxscript ? | 06:17 |
| jan | brent ok, the next question is do you want to use the very latest version of wine or the one that is provided in ubuntu? | 06:17 |

| _azrael | hush: same goes for kmymoney2--just looked it up in the repos, may or may not be good. | 07:12 |
| silvaran | hush: If it only takes an hour out of your time, it might be good to look at in any case. | 07:12 |
| hush | cool - any other suggestions or ideas? Does Quicken make a version for Linux - probably not huh? | 07:12 |
| KrakensDen | don't they have a web based version? | 07:12 |
| Tonren | _azrael: Isn't mencoder just mplayer's movie encoder? is there a gui for converting things? | 07:12 |
| silvaran | hush: Yeah try _azrael's idea too. | 07:12 |
| hush | I think I will - where should I start. | 07:13 |
| KrakensDen | one of the big tax software companies does | 07:13 |
| silvaran | hush: Likely not :). | 07:13 |
| KrakensDen | that's supposed to work | 07:13 |
| silvaran | Tonren: mencoder does whatever it has support for. | 07:13 |
| jcan_ras | i remember being downright FLAMED and scorched the first time I tried to paste lspci in #debian | 07:13 |
| _azrael | Tornen: mencoder can be used to convert just about any media from one format or another. Unfortunately, there is not a gui. | 07:13 |
| nikosapi | I run configure and it goes perfectly, then I run make and after a while I get this first error: downloads.cc:34:22: error: fltk/run.h: no such file or dir. But I have libfltk1.1-dev installed! | 07:13 |
| hush | I looked on Quicken.com and couldn't find anything for Linux, but I must say - the Windows version for Personal Finance 2007 products look very nice! | 07:13 |
| silvaran | Tonren: So if mplayer can read it, so can mencoder. And thus, if mplayer can read it, mencoder can likely write it. | 07:13 |

| KillerDemon | just press R with windows xp setup | 09:29 |
| Carmen- | whats with the Bootable flag with partition? | 09:29 |
| NineTeen67Comet | aha .. I thought you put Ubuntu on this computer you are on now .. that also had Windows on it .. | 09:29 |
| Carmen- | you can boot to partiton that is not Bootable | 09:29 |
| Carmen- | even ubuntus installed does not make partitions botable | 09:29 |

| Carmen- | but still it boots to them.. | 09:29 |
| secleinteer | fyrestrtr: i'm booting ubuntu for a 30th time when i check the fs | 09:30 |
| GiGaHuRtZ|Laptop | how can I remove a package without it pulling other things with it, I have to use dpkg, right? If so, what switches? | 09:30 |
| secleinteer | and it can't do it automatically | 09:30 |
| secleinteer | so it says i have to do manually | 09:30 |
| _azrael | Carmen-: The bootable flag is for the old DOS MBR. It really doesn't do much of anything nowadays. | 09:30 |
| secleinteer | but my root password isn't working, which i need b4 doing it manually | 09:30 |

| fyrestrtr | secleinteer: okay, does it give you any errors? | 09:32 |
| secleinteer | yes | 09:32 |
| secleinteer | it says line 10 of fstab is messed up | 09:32 |

| secleinteer | i just want to skip this | 09:32 |
| HellDragon | night | 09:32 |
| secleinteer | is there any way to just bypass it? | 09:32 |
| fyrestrtr | secleinteer: lol okay, that's why its asking you for the root password, because it is trying to drop into maintenance mode, which needs a proper, funtioning root account (something that is disabled in ubuntu). Its not a big deal, boot from the livecd, and edit the fstab file, then reboot the machine and let it do its check. There is a way to bypass it, but you need to be in a shell to get to it. | 09:33 |

| _azrael | Carmen-: The "extended" choice is if you want to have a partition with other partitions in it. This choice exists due to restrictions on the drive partition table which limit it to 4 partitions. | 09:34 |
| secleinteer | which i'm using now on this other comp | 09:35 |

| NineTeen67Comet | meathead: lol .. when you run dual (triple in my case) monitors xgl/compiz (compiz runs under gnome/kde/xfce) it seems to not like xinerama and it's one screen monitor issue .. mine worked for a while very well .. | 10:30 |
| _azrael | trygg__: It's not reccomended to enable the root account, but if you must: sudo passwd | 10:30 |
| meathead | Tiggy: is the volume up in VLC and in Ubuntu? | 10:30 |
| AstralJava | Peacer: Where are you trying to create new directories? If / (root), you need to use sudo. | 10:30 |

| BlueEagle | relachs: That's not ubuntu spesific but goes for every os (even windows). You will need to remove one of your primary partitions and create an extended partition in its place. Extended partitions can hold several logical partitions. The limit in linux is 15 partitions + the extended partition. | 03:48 |

| beesandflowers | sethk: i think i am not properly explaining myself (or i do not understand you). after my ubuntu installation i used the "places" menu in my ubuntu panel to add access to some shares on the server. using nautilus i can access all files as the shares appear on the left panel. so file access is not my problem. but when i use openoffice and the file/open command, then that sharenames are not... | 04:32 |
| beesandflowers | ...appearing. so therefore i wonder, do i need to use a mount command to mount those shares so that they appear in the local directory structure (my ubuntu directory structure) under that /mnt subdirectory? | 04:32 |
| Flamekebab | dr_willis, it does work! I had it working earlier | 04:32 |

| cyber3 | my question is.. | 05:35 |
| digitalhav0c | go ahead | 05:36 |
| sethk | cyber3, are you asking about what I said about X dev packages? | 05:36 |
| cyber3 | is there a way to lock gnome desktop from command line? | 05:36 |
| wweasel | Well, it seems like more work than installing Azureus. But it's a much better client in my opinion, and the opinion of many others. | 05:36 |
| sethk | cyber3, it's at the X level, not the gnome level | 05:36 |

| sethk | cyber3, and you do it with a call to XLockDisplay. The documentation for XLockDisplay is in the X dev packages | 05:36 |

| richiefrich | information means nothing itk's the speed at which they come in at | 05:37 |
| wweasel | jmelloy: It's probably been a while since you've used Windows? uTorrent is an excellent alternative to Azureus, but it is 1 mb filesize, and it's resource utilization is very low. | 05:37 |
| sethk | cyber3, if you run synaptic, and, in the search dialog, enter x dev (that is, x, space, dev) you'll get packages with both x and dev in the name | 05:37 |
| jmelloy | I practically never use windows. | 05:37 |
| richiefrich | pekay install a another one and what are u using now ? gdm ? | 05:37 |
| cyber3 | ok | 05:37 |

| richiefrich | pekay or edit--> sudo nano -w /etc/X11/default-display-manager | 05:40 |
| stefg | wweasel: so the trick is to tell firefox to 'open' the torrent-file with your script, which does nothing else than getting the file into /tmp and and starting wine with utorrent and pass the filename as a positional paramter | 05:40 |
| xanatos_ | and now you can brouse | 05:40 |

| YogSothoth | sethk, so I think the connection is good | 07:31 |
| sethk | CyberMad, I don't, exactly, I use both ubuntu and debian. Ubuntu is easier to install, easier to configure, easier to maintain, and has all the software I need in most cases. | 07:32 |
| Warbo | How would I install newer version of a driver which is already installed? (would they conflict? How would I get rid of the old one, just move the .ko file?) | 07:32 |
| born | after installation i have two problems, i have to do a sudo dhclient every time manually after boot, it does not work automatically, does anybody has a solution for this weird behaviour? | 07:32 |
| Cirvin_Fox | I tried to use apt-get to reinstall CUPS, but it said the package was unavalible | 07:32 |
| sethk | YogSothoth, I'd agree the connection itself is good. | 07:32 |

| Cirvin_Fox | no luck, is there some place that i can get the current version of sources.list? ive tinkered with mine a bit | 07:35 |

| stefg | exs... first entry in the system menu... got no friggin english gnome here :-) | 07:37 |
| bobovski | indeed | 07:37 |
| sethk | bobovski, then I take it back, it is the router configuration, because you are using your router as your dns source | 07:37 |
| sethk | bobovski, assuming your router is 192.168.1.1 | 07:37 |
| bobovski | sethk: it is | 07:37 |
| bobovski | sethk: do I turn off dhcp on the router? | 07:38 |
| sethk | bobovski, no, not entirely | 07:38 |
| sethk | bobovski, you can override the dns settings without doing that | 07:38 |
| sethk | bobovski, if you know what dns servers to use, it's easy. | 07:38 |
| sethk | bobovski, if you don't, you may have to get the info from your isp. | 07:38 |

| bobovski | sethk: which are directly from the ISP, correct? | 07:39 |
| sethk | bobovski, of course that assumes you know what the servers are. Can you dump the router config and find out what dns servers it is using? | 07:39 |

| _Sand_man_ | meisam, pgadmin3 is a great interface... if you prefer a web interface, use phppgadmin | 08:19 |
| sethk | shawnr_, then you need to add the directory where javac lives to the execution search path, or make a link in, say, /usr/bin. Do you know what directory javac is in? | 08:19 |

| Polygon89 | hello, i have a question, im wanting to download this torrent: http://torrents.vugames.com/fearcomb...07.exe.torrent but it keeps timing out, and it says on the site that there are ppl seeding/downloading. why can't i download this torrent? | 09:46 |
| argument | sethk, i just want to remove myself from a specific group not go look for all the groups i'm in so that i can retype them in | 09:46 |
| FantasticFoo | eobanb: it got f***'ed up after i tried to install compiz (a stupid idea, trying to mess with beta junk)... i get a kernel panic every startup | 09:46 |

| Marex | sethk, this really is loss of time :) | 09:46 |

| sethk | Marex, bye | 09:46 |
| sethk | Marex, sorry you were wrong about it. :) | 09:46 |

| Corporal_Dirge | bbrazil, ip instead of hostname for what? | 09:47 |
| bbrazil | Aagni: use 'vigr' for that for proper locking | 09:47 |

| tepus6 | hi i recently installed compiz... im following a tutorial to set it up... it says to use gconf-editor apps > compiz... but it isnt there... any ideas? | 09:48 |
| bbrazil | Corporal_Dirge: where you would normally put a hostname, just put in the IP of the remote system | 09:48 |
| sethk | Marex, I'll talk to you about this on PM, if you really want to understand the situation | 09:48 |
| Aagni | bruenig: that sounds like a great idea | 09:48 |
| squidgy | Corporal_Dirge: I think maybe what I'm trying to do is even simpler. I just want to be able to switch from the built-in LCD to using an external monitor (a projector, actually, for a class I teach). So, no need to have both going at once or anything fancy like that. | 09:48 |
| HanzZ | sethk: what about this ? https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/grub/+bug/8497 | 09:48 |

| bruenig | Polygon89, it is something on your end works for me | 09:48 |

| lamego | Aagni, you shouldn't need a dns cache for your own system, unless your ISP dns really sucks :) | 10:21 |
| bobovski | ljlolel: it has caused no end of frustration | 10:21 |
| Aagni | lamego: if thats the case, then i dont need to | 10:21 |
| lamego | technel, why do you need tabs ? can't they run on the background ? | 10:21 |
| Aagni | my ISPs pretty good | 10:21 |
| lamego | technel, you can open new terminals, with each command... | 10:21 |

| bobovski | guess if I restart dhcp, I'll be disconnected? | 10:21 |
| Stato | ok ok, so in ubunto the root account its disabled so i cant use it? | 10:21 |
| sethk | technel, run gnome-terminal under strace with -o and -ff. Create a new tab terminal. Then extract the commands for doing so from the strace output files. | 10:22 |
| technel | lamego, Well, that would require "ps aux | grep whatever" and then kill every time I need to restart the process, and that is no good | 10:22 |
| jrib | Stato: you use sudo instead | 10:22 |
| ljlolel | Aagni, I mean, it's can't be slower to run your own dns, and i doubt bind takes up many resources | 10:22 |
| Aagni | and whats the best way to organize ones music? | 10:22 |
| Ademan | ubuntu has no "registry" like windows right? or one that can be modified by any old program right? its only for configuring gnome... right? | 10:22 |
| ljlolel | it* | 10:22 |

| ljlolel | Aagni, apt-get install bind? time? | 10:22 |
| sethk | Stato, you can either set the password, or use sudo | 10:22 |
| Aagni | Ademan: not to the best of my knowledge | 10:22 |
| Aagni | ljlolel: what about config time? | 10:23 |
| ljlolel | Aagni, what is config time | 10:23 |
| lamego | technel, well, check the gnome-terminal command line options, eventually there is an option to open on a tab, but it will work the same wat, it will create a new terminal, which is not bound to the parent process | 10:23 |
| Stato | jrib, and thats not restrictive in some way, excuse if its a silly doubt but i used to use fedora and slack with root when i needed to make big changes to the system | 10:23 |

| Aagni | lamego: i used automatix .. so? | 10:25 |

| T | make[3] : *** [.obj/debug-shared/qobject.o] Error 1 | 10:25 |
| lmosher | Stato, I came from FC about a week ago. You can do 'sudo su -' if you want to. The point of doing it this way (I think) is that you have to enter your pw every time you do something. Which is supposed to make it more safe, but I worry that password entry becomes habit forming and you could make mistakes anyway | 10:25 |
| Stato | jrib, ok ,thanks man ill see how this works | 10:25 |
| phobik | lamego: yep how do I go about removing? | 10:25 |
| bobovski | sethk: try it | 10:25 |
| Aagni | lamego: and i selected ms fonts install ..its ok with me | 10:25 |
| lamego | Aagni, the last time i did it, i have installed the ms ttf fonts, and a lot of applications got unreadable | 10:25 |

| sethk | bobovski, I didn't say it won't work, I said it makes no sense, and it is inferior to setting the root password and using su normally | 10:25 |
| Stato | sethk, ok ill check about that, i have 2 years without using linux .( | 10:25 |
| phobik | lamego: cool thanks for the heads up, I will try to remove that package | 10:25 |
| lmosher | Stato, but like they've said - it's just a default option. You can set your root pw and such and it will be just like FC if you want. I left it to the default for now - it hasn't really bothered me :) | 10:25 |

| phobik | lamego: your kidding... | 10:26 |
| sethk | bobovski, if you subscribe to the "sudo is better" (which I don't), then you shouldn't do that. If you want to do that, just set the root password. | 10:26 |

| sethk | bobovski, the reason that is much worse than setting the root password is that gives everyone root access whether they know the root password or not. | 10:26 |
| lamego | phobik, remove does not remove the fonts, at least it did not when i have used, it was some months ago, just if they changed it after :) | 10:26 |

Specifically, this occurs with Sun's download server, Macromedia's download server and any version of Wikipedia.

| DrBanzai | Hey all, I've got 2 different serial devices, neither of which is a modem. One is a homebrew MP3 player, the other is my ethernet switch. I know for a fact that the MP3 player does not need a null modem adapter, as it works great under Hyperterm without the null adapter. I can't get either one to work under ubuntu, with minicom, nor gtkterm. Any advice? | 11:24 |

| iter | Tangent1: do you have a floppy drive? | 11:44 |
| sethk | zoidberg, the second problem, on the apt-get, is just a case of two programs trying to grab the same lock file at the same time. | 11:44 |
| iter | Tangent1: you can put grub installer on a boot floppy | 11:44 |
| Tangent1 | there's not a floppy on the other computer | 11:44 |
| sethk | zoidberg, you need sudo during the apt-get; that's what caused the problem on the apt-get a couple of lines from the end | 11:44 |
| UbuntuBantu | sethk: my strategy is to copy data to a spare drive, reformat the source ntfs to ext3 and then copy the data back. I'll keep swinging through drives till I'm done and ntfs is a thing of the past | 11:44 |
