| h3sp4wn | Spaceb: Do the md5sum thing it suggests | 12:40 |
| phoenixx | angasule: are those packages that are merely compiled source code? or are they source code applied with patches and then compiled? | 12:40 |
| lupine_85 | so just the linux-restricted-modules package? | 12:40 |
| lupine_85 | (and nvidia-glx) | 12:40 |
| angasule | phoenixx: uh? | 12:40 |
| Spaceb | i downloaded the nvidia-glx | 12:40 |

| Spaceb | then? | 12:44 |
| angasule | phoenixx: some are patched, yes, for specifics, you'd have to check on the package | 12:44 |
| lupine_85 | save it, exit all applications and restart X (ctrl+alt+backspace). Have a backup plan (e.g. make sure irssi is installed, and you know how to use it) in case X doersn't restyart | 12:44 |
| phoenixx | angasule: do you know of a place I can get binaries that did not have patches applied at compilation? | 12:44 |
| Spaceb | i dont know hot to use irssi | 12:45 |
| Spaceb | how to use irssi | 12:45 |
| lupine_85 | 1. type "irssi" in the command line | 12:45 |
| lupine_85 | 2. in the box that shows up type "/server irc.freenode.net" | 12:45 |
| lupine_85 | 3. once it's connected, type "/join #kubuntu" | 12:45 |
| angasule | phoenixx: no, but why would you want that? are you talking about a specific package? | 12:45 |
| lupine_85 | that's just a backup, though | 12:45 |
| lupine_85 | it "should" work by defauly | 12:46 |
| lupine_85 | and the worst-case scenario is you edit xorg.conf to change nvidia back to vesa, and boot back into X | 12:46 |

| Dr_willis | some day i need to start up a collextion of all the odd questions ive seen asked | 04:33 |
| LeeJunFan | So tell me then why much larger projects which are binary only don't have any distro problems like vmware, quake, cedega, codeweavers? flash programmers - go back to school! :) | 04:34 |

| LeeJunFan | Dr_willis: I've seen issues with gfx drivers, but I've never had a problem on redhat, ubuntu, debian, suse, or mandrake getting any of those to run. | 04:36 |
| Dr_willis | Yes. i recall quite many problems with Quake 1 and 2 and 3 | 04:36 |
| LeeJunFan | and vmware uses kernel modules because it accesses devices. | 04:36 |
| cpk2 | arent all the quakes native linux? | 04:36 |
| Dr_willis | I recall some odd library issues with the quake games a long time ago | 04:36 |
| Dr_willis | I recall not being able to get quake1 runnint the othe rday when i tried. | 04:36 |
| Dr_willis | I forget why.. but i ended up finding a better alternative - that used the same data libs. | 04:36 |
| Dr_willis | same data files I mean. | 04:36 |
| LeeJunFan | but a small app like flash can't be so boggling that doesn't need DMA or direct device access. | 04:37 |

| Dr_willis | links -g | 04:43 |
| LeeJunFan | flaccid: uh, problem is if your disk is in that bad of shape it's probably losing blocks left and right. | 04:44 |
| LeeJunFan | flaccid: or you're just using reiserfs | 04:44 |
| flaccid | does it or not? | 04:44 |

| LeeJunFan | BigIron: heh | 05:01 |
| AWOSDev | LeejunFan, it's MySQL+PHP code :) | 05:02 |

| LeeJunFan | it tells kde to rebuild it's config cache, normally is done automatically but sometimes especially with non kde apps it may not work automatically. | 05:05 |

| AWOSDev | LeejunFan can you give me your opinion though? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25128/ | 05:08 |
| tobias__ | gnite all, spread the love! | 05:09 |

| flaccid | in general, the only thing you have to backup is your home dir in the case of 'you don't mind doing a reinstall of the OS and binaries' ?? | 05:35 |
| flaccid | but if you wanna backup the OS, do a disk image as well ? | 05:35 |

| benjamin | Arlington: whats the problem ? | 11:28 |
| Zaire | said it wasn't that hard to get working either | 11:28 |
| Arlington | well it would work if i could install it and then apt down the new driver. | 11:28 |

| Arlington | but since the only vidoe mode that works with the live cd is vga 4bit 640*480 i can't install and i would really like to se how kubuntu looks and works before installing... | 11:29 |
| bmo | arlington, use the radeon driver | 11:29 |
| bmo | not the vga driver | 11:29 |
| benjamin | bmo yeah but those were good graphic cards. | 11:29 |
| Zaire | ummm the first computer I used linux on worked fine with ATI and the prob with ATI didn't hit till the newer distro's from mine and my friends experience | 11:29 |

| bmo | the reason why /etc is in its own partition is that it protects your settings from being hosed when you format / | 12:15 |
| bmo | and my /etc size is only 15m | 12:15 |

| bmo | or less | 12:16 |

| j2daosh | good point | 12:33 |
| bmo | yes, port 22 works, but moving ssh to a high port gets it out of the bots | 12:33 |
| j2daosh | lol | 12:33 |
| j2daosh | when i change this though its gonna kick me off lol | 12:34 |
| bmo | you just have to remember that you have to specify the port when you use ssh | 12:34 |
| j2daosh | yeah, i mostly use putty and freenx | 12:34 |
| j2daosh | crap | 12:34 |
| j2daosh | i will have to change my freenx port too.... | 12:34 |

| bmo | cpk2 if it is formatted ntfs, it may become unmountable, but...well...you can always format it later if you do the dummy /home directory | 02:15 |

| fdoving | cpk2: i understand that, you can do that -after- installation. | 02:17 |
| bmo | the /home and / directories should be on separate partitions/drives always, so you can blow away the OS and not worry about the /home stuff | 02:17 |
| bmo | if they are on the same drive/partition, if you have to format the partition, you are hosed | 02:17 |

| scheuri | Hi all....sorry for bothering you, but I managed to delete something from my panel...that part showed me all open applications (such as konversation, gaim, kontact, etc.), but now its gone and I dont know how to retrieve it | 05:19 |
| trappist | Electrolyte: that's usually a configuration issue. that is, if it polls the whole screen constantly, you can expect that. you can configure (most) vnc servers to, say, only poll the area under the mouse, or only poll the whole screen periodically, make it not draw the desktop background, etc. | 05:19 |
| Hawkwind | scheuri: Right click on the panel -> Add applet to panel -> Taskbar | 05:20 |
| Electrolyte | trappist - even if it's full screen, it shouldn't use 100% CPU. | 05:20 |
| trappist | scheuri: or Desktop Preview & Pager, if that's what you meant | 05:20 |
| scheuri | Hawkwind: uhm...well...I have not taskbar to choose...? | 05:20 |
| trappist | Electrolyte: if it polls the whole screen, wallpaper and all, constantly, it's been my experience that it becomes a serious cpu hog. | 05:20 |

| trappist | scheuri: it should definitely be there, once you're looking at the list of applets to add | 05:21 |
| scheuri | Hawkwind: right click on panel -> add aplet (or miniprogram) and then there should be taskbar? no sorry | 05:21 |
| Electrolyte | trappist - sorry, VNC doesn't do this on Windows. I'll just try Tight VNC. | 05:21 |
| Hawkwind | scheuri: Strange. There is that option here | 05:22 |
| Hawkwind | Taskbar - The default task bar for window management is what mine says | 05:22 |

| umang | i am here | 10:29 |

| joakim | thx ubotu | 10:29 |
| XVampireX | Dapper to Edgy: Do I get upstart during the upgrade or do I have to manually install it? | 10:29 |
| Arlington | yeah well it would work. but i have problems using Ctrl-Alt-F1 and such to | 10:29 |
| gupta | umang: from kmenu? | 10:29 |
| Kyral | Arlington: do you have Framebuffer enabled? | 10:29 |
| Arlington | and because it can't reboot properly i think my applet's dosn't work... | 10:30 |
| Arlington | yes i have. | 10:30 |
| umang | they are running and suddenly they vanish. firefox, amarok. | 10:30 |
| ibert | Kyral: no. | 10:30 |
| Kyral | Arlington: if the framebuffer uses the same module as X does, then it will block VT switching | 10:30 |
| Arlington | so u say i should try turning it off? | 10:30 |
| Kyral | Arlington: Change the framebuffer line in menu.lst to something like vesafb | 10:30 |
| Kyral | ibert: hmm...I dunno... | 10:31 |
| Arlington | what will happen then? i wanna know the root of this evil. | 10:31 |
| Kyral | Arlington: I told you | 10:31 |
| gupta | umang: hmm, tha means they are 'crashing' , no idea why that could be. | 10:31 |
| Kyral | Arlington: the framebuffer is using the same module as X to draw the screen. X "takes control" of it | 10:31 |
| ibert | Kyral: hmm. but glxgears is sloooooow motion..... | 10:32 |
| umang | yes they are crashing.the installation is just 3-4 days old. | 10:32 |
| Arlington | okay how do i change this then? | 10:32 |
| Kyral | ibert: pastebin your xorg.conf | 10:32 |
| Kyral | Arlington: go to root and edit /boot/grub/menu.lst | 10:32 |
| Kyral | Arlington: look for the bootline and something like "ati" or "vesafb" | 10:32 |
| gupta | which command for a clean shutdown? so that progams close nice and cleanly & session info is saved. "sudo shutdown -h now" seems a bit overkill | 10:33 |

| Admiral_Chicago | Hawkwind, i supposed thats a good reason | 12:01 |
| Hawkwind | Kr4t05: Hah | 12:01 |
| Johnathan | Ok, thanks hawkwind, TheGateKeeper. Will give that a try. | 12:01 |
| Hawkwind | Admiral_Chicago: I know I could do it, it's just a matter of really wanting/needing to and forcing myself | 12:01 |
| Kr4t05 | I should try the DAS Uber-Geek keyboard. | 12:01 |
| Admiral_Chicago | i can touch-type pretty well but the problem is my keyboard | 12:01 |
| Kr4t05 | It has no writing on it, at all. | 12:02 |
| Admiral_Chicago | Das Keyboard | 12:02 |
| flaccid | then you can't touch type | 12:02 |
| Hawkwind | Kr4t05: My keyboard doesn't have letters on it anymore. They have all rubbed off | 12:02 |
| Admiral_Chicago | that's what you need Hawkwind | 12:02 |
| Hawkwind | Only time I look at it is to clean it | 12:02 |

| Hawkwind | BluesKaj: It would have done a better job if it had deleted the Windows partition all together :P | 12:06 |
| Kr4t05 | Hawkwind: The error occured towards what looked like the end of the compile, so it may be about 8 or 9 before we have a verdict. :P | 12:07 |
| BluesKaj | hence the (G) | 12:07 |
| TheGateKeeper | software_: it should automount when you plug it in | 12:07 |
| dre | hi all | 12:07 |

| Blacken | BluesKaj: Yes, and it still interfaces with the same version of parted, I believe. | 12:07 |
| BluesKaj | the trick is to shrink the windows partition first , then then the xtn | 12:07 |
| Kr4t05 | Unfortunately, my system doesn't have as much compiling power as I would hope. | 12:07 |
