| pianoboy3333 | What does the -j2 tag on make do? Is it good for a hyperthreaded computer/ | 03:09 |

| pianoboy3333 | ? | 03:09 |
|---|
| DarkTower | Is dapper fully stable for use or are people having problems? | 03:09 |
|---|
| hawkaloogie | DarkTower, no problems as of yet for me | 03:09 |
|---|
| Masqy | "Please note that the installation (make install command) is not mandatory. You can execute VLC from where you compiled it.", well, it seems it is not so dangerous to at least try to compile it | 03:09 |
|---|
| sethk | pianoboy3333, depends whether there is any discoverable parallelism | 03:09 |
|---|
| brendonjt | darktower: it is fully stable haven't had any problems here | 03:09 |
|---|
| sethk | pianoboy3333, can't hurt | 03:09 |
|---|
| Tennessee | DarkTower: It's pretty good. Just the usual things that crop up with every stable release on the planet from time to time. | 03:10 |

| Skuz` | one last noob question guys, how do i kill x? do i just go into init 3 ? | 03:10 |
|---|
| sethk | pianoboy3333, but use a higher number than 2 | 03:10 |
|---|
| pianoboy3333 | sethk: in gnome-system-monitor it shows 2 cpus | 03:10 |
|---|
| Skuz` | or is there an easier way | 03:10 |
|---|
| Jack_Sparrow | DarkTower: dapper is stable | 03:10 |
|---|
| soundgate | so after ./configure I could now type "make DESTDIR=/usr/local"? | 03:10 |
|---|
| Skuz` | i dont want to loose whats open basically | 03:10 |
|---|
| cafuego | pianoboy3333: I normally use number of cpus times 2 | 03:10 |
|---|
| sethk | Skuz`, ubuntu's levels are different. X is on for levels 2 and above | 03:10 |
|---|
| Jack_Sparrow | DarkTower: Most injuries are self inflicted.. :) | 03:10 |
|---|
| cafuego | pianoboy3333: So -j 4 on a box with two CPUs. | 03:10 |

| sethk | pianoboy3333, that doesn't imply that you shouldn't run more than two processes | 03:10 |

|---|

|---|
| sethk | Skuz`, sure, init 1 | 03:10 |
|---|
| pianoboy3333 | won't that like, make my box go splody? | 03:10 |
|---|
| Skuz` | that will set single user mode yes? | 03:10 |
|---|
| sethk | Skuz`, or, you can edit /etc/inittab | 03:11 |
|---|
| Skuz` | which means everything i have open closes | 03:11 |
|---|
| cafuego | pianoboy3333: Nope | 03:11 |
|---|
| sethk | Skuz`, yes, init 1 is single user mode. | 03:11 |
|---|
| Skuz` | i should probobly reboot so i dont break everything | 03:11 |
|---|
| ubuntu | could someone please help me mount my win xp drive. i'm using ubuntu live cd | 03:11 |
|---|
| Skuz` | brb | 03:11 |
|---|
| sethk | Skuz`, to avoid that, you need to edit /etc/inittab and then perform a telinit command | 03:11 |

| aaron | I'm having an issue with my Dapper router/server machine. It provides DNS and DHCP via dnsmasq, and NAT via Guidedog. When any of the machines on the internal network run Bittorrent, somewhere within 5 minutes to 1 hour the machine will lock hard, refusing to come out of screensaver. The ram checks good in memtest...anyone have experience with this issue? | 03:30 |

| longwave | brianprogrammer: "link quality" is the signal strength that the network applet displays, that is the strength reading | 03:31 |
|---|
| sethk | hawkaloogie, you could exchange some cables to make sure it isn't an IDE interface issue. | 03:31 |
|---|
| sethk | hawkaloogie, that's unlikely, but possible | 03:31 |
|---|
| brianprogrammer | is there any way to get it to display the one that says "signal level" ? | 03:31 |

| hawkaloogie | sethk, unlikely, the slave is still working fine | 03:31 |

| Kragnerac | Hello, Is there anyway to get virtual Video Memory? | 03:32 |
|---|
| brianprogrammer | Because my adapter doesn't report the link quality, however it reports the values to signal level | 03:32 |
|---|
| hawkaloogie | sethk, if that was bad it would show up in bios and the device wouldn't be anywhere | 03:32 |
|---|
| sethk | Kragnerac, there are a very few graphics adapters that can do it. | 03:32 |
|---|
| longwave | brianprogrammer: not that i know of, if there is nothing in the applet properties then i doubt it | 03:32 |

| sethk | Masqy, you can have two installs on the same box. You can have two root file systems, which is what you mean I think | 03:42 |

| longwave | Masqy: you could read up about "chroot jails" | 03:42 |
|---|
| sethk | goldenflaw, that can be because of a key mismatch. You'll receive, because you are not asking for a key, but the access point won't ack you, because the key doesn't match. | 03:43 |

| Muhamer | uhh brb | 04:24 |

| Muhamer | have it on paper :P | 04:24 |
|---|
| ladydoor | Skuz`: it takes a little configurating (you can get the sample rc out of /usr/share/doc/pytone and edit it), but it works great and is pretty | 04:24 |
|---|
| Muhamer | Reboot and select proper boot device or insert boot media in selected boot device and press a key | 04:24 |

| amonkey_ | longwave, i was able to make a file in it and read right to it | 04:24 |

| StoneNote | brendonjt, you can't force someone to communicate with you :) if he cannot state his problem in a hour then maybe that is his problem. | 04:39 |

| Muhamer | THis is my computer | 04:40 |

| Muhamer | I let my friend install it because i didnt kno how to | 04:40 |

| Muhamer | so he knows everything and im trying to reach him on phone and msn but hes not on | 04:40 |

| XSah | i didnt say that i just want to know how to install any update or any program to one is not connecting to the internet... thats all! | 04:40 |
|---|
| Pelo | redsoxfan90 , what kernel are you using , that will tell you if you need the i386 or x64 driver | 04:40 |
|---|
| ladydoor | i *thought* i heard that gedit spits out an error anytime you run it with gksudo. you might try sudo nano -w in a terminal instead; nano's "user-friendly" for a console-based app | 04:40 |

| amonkey | i put my xfs partition into fstab and now it works fine for root but my user can't make files or anything. how to i let regular people use the drive? | 04:40 |

| rugbythomas | thanks | 05:23 |

| longwave | bear: when there are four keys i think it just uses any one of the four | 05:23 |

|---|
| sethk | Slayer20003, you can't run a windows executable natively in linux. try it with wine | 06:28 |

| cliffd | does ubuntu update the kernel or does it stay the same like debian? | 06:29 |

|---|
| Abst | Slayer20003: sudo apt-get install wine | 06:29 |
|---|
| sethk | cliffd, you would use the "make oldconfig" capability of the kernel to migrate to newer versions | 06:29 |

| IceTox | Hello guys! Whenever I make a restart on my computer, somehow my network card is dead. I always need to deactivate it through the system->Administration->Networking and than activate it again, and it works ok. Now, isn't there anything to do about this? I'd really like it to work at once :) | 06:36 |
