It just manages the scripting tool that runs ON TOP of init.d. So it doesn't DIRECTLY affect init.d, but it kind of does anyway. [01:00] anto9us: you there? [01:00] Flamekebab, you tar to the stdout and pipe it to the split command [01:00] because the files inside are taking up too much HD space [01:00] AlReece44: yes === tj [n=tj@modemcable079.190-200-24.mc.videotron.ca] has joined #ubuntu [01:00] mike-digiport-: just put the cd in and reboot the computer === lbm [n=lbm@82.192.173.92] has joined #ubuntu === paszczur [n=michal@62.233.250.146] has joined #ubuntu [01:00] I did [01:01] ok [01:01] anto9us: the only thing I think might be it would be "ProcXCloseDevice to close or not ?"

[01:01] Can i make an application start on a specific workspace? Like adding some parameter to its shortcut or something..:= [01:01] what cd do you have? is it a newer or and older one [01:01] nozorro: True. I did, in fact, have little to no idea what I was doing. However, I knew enough that I knew NOT to just delete stuff from /etc/init.d. That's why i was asking about the tool to use. [01:01] bearing in mind that it must be done "on the fly" so to speak [01:01] Flamekebab, you will need the basics of using linux commands with stdin/stdout and pipe [01:01] what do you guys think would be the best way to make a menu through a bash script that is terminal based? (currently using dialog, looking for better way) [01:02] vrta: I think that KDE has some GUI tools for that, but I'm not sure. [01:02] Flamekebab, "tar cvf - files | split " [01:02] mike-digiport-: the cd's take you into a live cd environment, at least they did when i installed ubuntu [01:02] Flamekebab, man split, for the split options, i dont remember now [01:02] i'm using gnome... :/ [01:02] o.

[01:02] mike-digiport-: if you had any live cd at all you could do it, knoppix would work [01:02] AlReece44: it's beyond me mate, there's a lot of things to try, order of modules being loaded etc. other than that I don't know what to advise [01:02] does ubuntu play mp3 and divx by default? also rar archives [01:03] nozorro: So, hang on.. before I had sysvconfig installed, was Ubuntu still using sysvconfig script to boot up?

Naj zanem s tem, da mi beseda "upan" deluje zelo 'ne-slovensko'.
[02:01] Resno... u..pan... O_o

[02:01]

Nimam pojma, kdo kandidira na prihajajoih lokalnih volitvah in e sem odkrit, me niti ne zanima, ker mi neka imena ne povejo veliko.
[02:01] Dosti raje bi prebral kak spisek predvolilnih obljub zbranih kandidatov.

[02:01]

Nad trenutnim upanom Kamnika nisem ravno navduen, ampak po svoje mu tudi nimam veliko oitati. Vseeno pa me zanima, e obsaja kak bolji kandidat.

[02:01]

[02:01] nozorro: anyway, at this point it's a little faster. i'm trying to figure out this postfix thing [02:01]

Po svoje mi je vseeno, kateri stranki pripada kak kandidat. Vseeno mi je tudi, e ima kaka udna naela ali je na splono udak...

[02:01]

... jaz bi volil tistega upana, ki bi po kamniku 'posadil' najve smetnjakov. Ima kdo kak predlog, kako bi mu bilo ime?

[02:01] vrta, stop [02:01]

[02:35] then tried again with Suse [02:35] Paddy_EIRE: i dunno right now, not sure you really need this. but do a search on google, it's surely documented somewhere [02:35] I think I have my bought red hat 6.0 cd's sitting around here somewhere (I was on dial up) [02:35] hehe [02:35] i have my 8's === wira1_8 [n=fabian@219.131.69.212] has joined #ubuntu [02:35] back at home [02:35] yeah i just want all the progs with configs that i have now but maybe thats askin to much [02:36] I'm so torn as to how big to make my swapfile [02:36] it used to be easy..

[02:39] SeNtiX,that's just a word. perhaps it does what I said, perhaps not, but it doesn't change my answer. [02:39] before i go patching my kernel [02:39] SeNtiX, why would you patch the kernel? [02:39] www.grsecurity.com [02:39] SeNtiX, if that's what you found, it's dumb. [02:39] Flamekebab, I uses reiser myself. lots of benchmarks report reiser as very fast, stable all that [02:40] it's been around a while now [02:40] Paddy_EIRE: 'dpkg -set-selections < myselections' restores the package info [02:40] well, I am installing edgy, so I might as well try something edgy [02:40] Flamekebab, if you really need the journaling, you'd probably better stay with ext3 [02:40] i dont see the need of me using reiser, so i sticked with ext3 [02:40] Flamekebab, there are reported problems with reiser [02:40] :) [02:40] hmm [02:40] Paddy_EIRE: no, dpkg --set ...... not the double-dash [02:40] resizerfs is fine nowdays [02:40] sethk, i've never had a problem with reiser [02:40] reiser advocates say they've been fixed in v4. but they said that about v3, and before that about v2 === reitzell [n=reitzell@ip68-105-91-107.sd.sd.cox.net] has joined #ubuntu [02:40] unless you want windows to talk to it [02:41] i've even used reiser4 without a problem [02:41] ComputinChuck, they are infrequent, but that doesn't mean they don't exist [02:41] i've always used ext [02:41] say after i do "get-selections" and one of the packages or more have since been upgraded on the repos will "set selections2 know to pull down the newer ones ??? [02:41] sethk, true [02:41] then you should use ext3 [02:41] ComputinChuck, reiser4 is better, but all reports [02:41] by all reports, that is === luisbg [n=d33p@87.217.144.207] has joined #ubuntu [02:41] what about JFS and XFS? [02:41] sethk, i wish i could get my root fs on it, but none of the installers support it yet... [02:42] Flamekebab, XFS is about as fast as reiser, but it's meant more for large files [02:42] my grub isn't reading the menu.lst, I erased half of the options in the menu.lst and when I reboot grub still shows them as before the edit, very weird [02:42] it's tweaked more for large file operations [02:42] ComputinChuck, you can do that, but most of the problems I've dealt with are related to using reiserfs as the root partition. [02:42] Paddy_EIRE: it --get-selections -- newer versions will get onto your systems when you run the package handling app, which ever it is [02:42] sethk, that's what i've done for a while now... [02:42] any idea when Ext4 is coming?

[02:43] nice one [02:43] Paddy_EIRE: ... of the correct syntax === djm62 [n=djm62@80-192-254-43.cable.ubr08.uddi.blueyonder.co.uk] has left #ubuntu [] [02:43] sethk, typical file systems, what do you mean by that?

[02:45] i may even get a testing comp together out of the rubble of other comps about me to try out opensuse ppl sya its not bad [02:45] but i like how things just work out of the box [02:45] asonjay99, in normal Ubuntu, under gnome? [02:45] ComputinChuck, by typical I mean with a variety of file sizes and types. [02:45] id like a nice 10X10 ubuntu sticker for the back of my laptop [02:45] Paddy_EIRE: yeah. -- anyway i think keeping the package selection for the next reinstall is a bit of overkill, but that's just me. most reinstalls are upgrades anyway [02:45] thatd be cool' [02:45] viator - is that ten centimetres or inches? [02:45] ComputinChuck, the degrading that has been reported has to do, I believe, with increasing fragmentation over time. [02:45] flamekebab, yup [02:45] inches [02:45] lol [02:45] asonjay99, which app? [02:45] sethk, ah ok [02:45] viator, why lol?

[02:48] i want to get one of those [02:48] yeah, nice one mate Im gonna read the wiki for backup techniques also cheers anyway [02:48] Flamekebab, i don't doubt it...someone out there's gotta be hard-core enough [02:48] ComputinChuck, by using algorithms that, essentially, defrag on the fly as files are created, expanded, contracted, deleted, etc. [02:48] heheh [02:48] Paddy_EIRE: have a look at rdiff and rsync [02:48] ah ok [02:48] nothing? [02:48] Ubuntu is probably the distro I feel most pasionate about [02:48] I might be buying a wireless mouse ( http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0009N7OL6/ref=olp_product_details/102-8360799-5983319?ie=UTF8 ) but it requires drivers - will I need the drivers, and if I do, do you think I can use the mouse with Ubuntu? [02:48] no defraging [02:48] it feels like it's actually going somewhere [02:48] its how they place the files [02:49] ooh! ooh! me! me! I have a question about file systems!

If so, how do I defrag it? [02:50] Do you think they have Ubuntu ported drivers for that mouse? [02:50] I'm a debian unstable user, thinking of switching to Ubuntu. Does Ubuntu have something like this "unstable" version, which updates multiple packages per day? [02:50] want to know whay it doesnt need defragging [02:50] fishy, I can't imagine there'd be any problems with it, although I'd rather someone else backed me up on that [02:50] http://geekblog.oneandoneis2.org/index.php/2006/08/17/why_doesn_t_linux_need_defragmenting [02:50] go there [02:50] viator, I've read it === robertj_ [n=robertj@66-190-83-164.dhcp.athn.ga.charter.com] has joined #ubuntu [02:50] fishy, mouse drivers are part of xorg. go to the xorg site to find out. [02:50] also, how often does the normal version of ubuntu update packages? [02:51] it puts it in lamans terms [02:51] but I wondered whether it depends on the filesystem, or the way linux writes to disks [02:51] does anyone know if there is an in-depth guide to the innerworkings of ubuntu anywhere? === bevege [n=bryan@c-24-8-253-184.hsd1.co.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu [02:51] corfe, it checks periodically, but it doesn't update until you tell it to. === bevege [n=bryan@c-24-8-253-184.hsd1.co.comcast.net] has left #ubuntu [] [02:51] how would i go about getting all the help files for kde based apps [02:51] for example, I understand how I don't need to defrag my laptop's hard disk, which is Ext3 [02:51] Paddy_EIRE: http://dar.linux.free.fr/ has lots of documentation and scripts [02:51] but what of the FAT32 disk? [02:51] with ASCII pictures! [02:51] viator, I've read the bloody article! *laughs* [02:51] Paddy_EIRE: I guess most of them are installed alongside the apps === luisbg [n=d33p@87.217.144.207] has joined #ubuntu [02:52] Flamekebab, vfat, aka fat32, does suffer from fragmentation. The assumption is that you'll defrag it in windows [02:52] :P [02:52] so...can anyone help me with my font color torubles? [02:52] can I use lilo instead of grub in ubuntu? [02:52] i wish the amarok manual was there but it aint [02:52] sethk: I mean, if I want to update every day, will I find on average 0, 1, 5, or 30 packages to update per day? [02:52] Flamekebab, the assumption is, if you don't run windows, you won't use vfat as it's inferior in many ways. [02:52] sethk: There isn't much on x.org. :-\ [02:52] ComputinChuck: basically, the source code. especially the ubuntu source packages. and the developer's mailing lists. and so on [02:52] sethk, that's a bit of an annoying assumption [02:52] Paddy_EIRE: it may be in the generic KDE helpfile [02:52] corfe, that's difficult to answer because the number of updates is high after a new release and then trends down towards the end of a release's life [02:52] nozorro, alright, sounds like a crazy job to figure this system out... [02:52] I'll not be using Windows PCs in uni, at least not in my room [02:52] where is that to be found?? [02:52] alright [02:53] Flamekebab, I'm just reporting, not defending :) [02:53] both laptops run linux [02:53] but this hard disk is FAT32 [02:53] and I plan on keeping it that way [02:53] because it ensures cross-compatability [02:53] but how do I defrag the silly thing? [02:53] ComputinChuck: maybe, but the inner workings is not what you need maybe :-) [02:53] just installed enlightenment 0.16 how can I have access to my apps menu ? [02:53] Paddy_EIRE: I've no idea, I rarely use any KDE apps [02:53] Flamekebab, the consequences of fragmentation are not really all that dramatic. don't worry about it unless you actually notice that the performance has changed. === BMWodarski [n=bryan@68-113-194-90.dhcp.ftwo.tx.charter.com] has left #ubuntu [] [02:54] ill fiqure this out im sure of it anyway, later [02:54] Flamekebab: you could use windows then to defrag [02:54] nozorro, i'd really like to know how the big distros accomplish some of the more complicated things that people kind of take for granted [02:54] later guys cheers for the help [02:54] cheerio Paddy_EIRE [02:54] there is a linux tool to defrag thos fat partions [02:54] nozorro, like volume automounting and so on [02:54] sethk: I can't find mouse drivers on x.org - are there any linux mouse driver sites? [02:54] viator, that's what I like to hear! [02:54] ComputinChuck, it's mostly an incorrect assumption that things are distro specific. There are details, of course, but the principle things are the same across distros [02:54] nozorro, i'im having a bad time finding good documentation for these kinds of "under the hood" things === PathagenX [n=Pathagen@203-118-183-169.bliink.ihug.co.nz] has joined #ubuntu === Captain_Redbeard [n=carl@c-42b5e055.449-1-64736c22.cust.bredbandsbolaget.se] has joined #ubuntu [02:55] sethk, yea, i know, but i haven't found any distro that documents those things very well [02:55] fishy, there must be, since there are drivers for a few things, touchpads, tablets, etc. [02:55] I wonder whether that's a deliberate spelling mistake.. [02:55] ComputinChuck look towards debian for that [02:55] surely it should be "PathogenX" ? [02:55] ComputinChuck, that's largely true. [02:55] ComputinChuck: if it doesn't work, ask a specific question here on in the forums, or file a bug report. but ubuntu isn't a top-down organisation like , say, Microsoft [02:55] ComputinChuck, I've not seen a comprehensive one that is accurate.

[06:42] rayston i think the default install is only a cd in size right [06:42] kaitlyn: oh, no I think you misunderstood me. Ihave to use GAIM to contact IRC because GAIM has the http-proxy possibility, irssi does not, or at least I haven't figured out how to set it up. I know it is strange, but all our traffic goes over that proxy, we even have a perl script to tunnel ssh over it [06:42] vincenz: It is pretty cool.
