| genii | avalon you need some kernel patch that will do what? | 12:48 |

| genii | avalon For something like that what the normal process would be: You get the source code to make the driver from. Usually it's some file ending in extension .tar,gz or bz2 or so on | 12:50 |

| Captain_Haddock | VESA, 1280 x 1024 79.976 75.025 135.00 +/+ | 12:53 |
| avalon | But the thing doesn't accept a make, or a make install | 12:54 |
| genii | avalon The command ./configure does not build the driver. It creates another file called Makefile | 12:54 |
| Captain_Haddock | That is "Display mode" "Horiz Freq. Khz" "Vert. Freq. Khz" "Pixel Clock" and "Sync Polarity (H/V)". | 12:54 |
| === max_ is now known as max__ | ||
| genii | avalon to compile anything on ubuntu you need to sudo apt-get install build-essential | 12:54 |
| === max__ is now known as max_ | ||
| avalon | I've got that package genii. | 12:54 |
| Captain_Haddock | Should I just enter the horiz and vert. values as such? | 12:54 |

| Dr_willis | prak, check 'dmesg' output | 01:35 |
| Dr_willis | prak, or 'sudo fdisk -l' and see what sd## devices are there. | 01:36 |
| soulrider | yeah | 01:37 |
| prak | they both don't show much useful information on the port | 01:37 |
| soulrider | but with transparency it looks so much cooler :P | 01:37 |

| soulrider | im not too much into eye andy | 01:37 |
| soulrider | but when i put something | 01:37 |
| soulrider | i like it to look neat | 01:37 |
| Dr_willis | prak, if its a usb thumb/whatever drive - its one of the sd## devices. or should be. unplug, check dmesg, plug in, check dmesg again... | 01:38 |
| Dr_willis | prak, could check ' media:/ ' also in konqueror | 01:38 |
| prak | it's not a disk drive | 01:39 |
| prak | it's a usb-to-serial db9 converter | 01:39 |
| Dr_willis | and it is a?....................... | 01:39 |
| Dr_willis | heh heh. | 01:39 |
| Dr_willis | oh in thta case you may need to load the proper module first. | 01:39 |
| prak | and that is connected to a ts-7250 board | 01:39 |
| Dr_willis | I got a usb-parallel adaptor dood-dad that worked for me decently well. | 01:40 |
| prak | load the proper module, dr_willis? | 01:40 |
| Dr_willis | its been so long since ive used a serial device.. what are the /dev/ Serial entryes anyway? | 01:40 |

| Crell | I'm having some issues with USB devices in a new Edgy install. First item, I've a USB ZIP 250 drive that is showing up in media:/. When I insert a disk, I get the new-media notification and tell it to open in a new window. It closes the notice window and does nothing else. If I try to click on it in media:/, I get an error "method mount with signature ssas on interface org.freedesktop.hal.device.volume doesn't exist". Any idea what c | 01:43 |
| Crell | A USB flash card reader is working fine. | 01:43 |
| Dr_willis | 325 possibilities | 01:43 |
| BrianSteffens | Crell: how is the zip disk formatted/ | 01:43 |

| Dr_willis | id try mounting it manually., also a 'sudo fdisk -l /dev/sd## where the zipdisk is at - to double check that its seen right | 01:44 |
| Crell | What device would it be listed as? | 01:45 |
| === Crell hates how USB devices hang off the SCSI chain at random. | ||
| Dr_willis | /dev/sd## | 01:46 |
| BrianSteffens | Crell: in terminal do ls /dev to see all devices found on system | 01:46 |
| Crell | Yeah, that really doesn't narrow it down. | 01:46 |
| Dr_willis | edgy uses the 'UUID' and other features of a device, so you can avoid some of the confuseion with changing sd## ids | 01:46 |
| Dr_willis | sudo fdisk -l | 01:46 |
| Dr_willis | should list all seen devices/partitions | 01:46 |
| BrianSteffens | Crell: not many should come up as sd# | 01:47 |
| Crell | Hm, spiffy. | 01:47 |
| BrianSteffens | unless you have like 50 scsi drives somehow lol | 01:47 |
| Crell | It says it's a FAT16 on sde4 | 01:47 |

| BrianSteffens | well i'm pretty sure linux supports fat without special packages or anything | 01:49 |
| BrianSteffens | are you able to mount it manually? | 01:49 |
| Crell | Trying now. | 01:49 |
| === brianw [n=brianw@gentoo/user/brianw] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| Crell | I know this system handles FAT, because it mounted a USB flash card reader without blinking. | 01:49 |
| Crell | Manually mounting works. | 01:50 |
| Crell | So it's something in the auto-detection. | 01:50 |
| Dr_willis | of course the fact its a removeable usb device,, and has removeable disks.. may be a bit of confusion | 01:50 |
| Dr_willis | I can say that ive never owned a zip drive/disk. heh - that company really *@*@(#'ed me off in other ways - so i never bought from them again | 01:51 |
| Crell | I've a lot of old legacy data on ZIP disks. | 01:51 |
| Crell | Well, as I said I've a USB multi-slot flash card reader as well, and that works perfectly. | 01:52 |
| BrianSteffens | when i was about 13 my dad got me an old zip100 thing for a birthday lol | 01:52 |
| Crell | So it's something to do with the ZIP drive itself, not the entire USB system. | 01:52 |
| BrianSteffens | i thought it was the coolest thing in the world | 01:52 |
| BrianSteffens | until automagically all the data was gone one day after not using a disk for 6 months or so | 01:52 |
| Crell | oops | 01:52 |
| BrianSteffens | it was the last backup of an entire album of my music | 01:52 |

| Dr_willis | Iomega and that other company had such a strangle hold on high-storage removeable media for so long.. i laughed my backside off when cd-burners got cheap | 01:53 |
| Crell | Of course, CDRs aren't exactly the longest-lived devices either. | 01:53 |
| Crell | SyQuest? | 01:53 |
| BrianSteffens | external hdd ftw! lol | 01:53 |
| Dr_willis | Redundant stack of 'redundant' disks. | 01:53 |
| Dr_willis | :) | 01:53 |
| Dr_willis | usb hard drives are so fast and cheap.. :) | 01:53 |
| Crell | Yeah, well, I'm looking for long-term storage, and I've got a gig or so of data on ZIP disks as is. | 01:54 |
| Dr_willis | now external SATA drives are getting on the market | 01:54 |
| Crell | And neither my ZIP 250 USB nor my ZIP 100 IDE drive are reading correctly. That makes me not happy. :-) | 01:54 |
| BrianSteffens | go for an external hard drive for longterm then... compared to zip disks the price is so much better | 01:54 |
| BrianSteffens | i don't reallyunderstand how zip drives still sell | 01:54 |
| Dr_willis | people with lots of old data. :) | 01:55 |
| soulrider | BrianSteffens: they still sell ? | 01:55 |
| BrianSteffens | hehe | 01:55 |
| Crell | Because the 3" floppy never had a replacement. | 01:55 |
| Dr_willis | the LS120 was a good replacement for the floppy drive | 01:55 |
| BrianSteffens | yeah man i was in a computer store just last week | 01:55 |
| BrianSteffens | looking at hard drives | 01:55 |
| Dr_willis | I got one of them.. somewhere.. | 01:55 |

| Crell | Iomega got all the preinstall contracts, but then the media never came down in price. | 01:56 |
| BrianSteffens | i know! i hadn't looked into dvd burners | 01:56 |
| BrianSteffens | until just recently when i built my new computer | 01:56 |
| BrianSteffens | and i couldn't believe how cheap they are now | 01:56 |
| soulrider | Dr_willis: where i live DVDs are pretty cheap | 01:56 |
| Crell | There's a desperate need for rewritable media that is cheap enough that you can give it to someone and not care if you get it back. | 01:56 |
| Dr_willis | LiteOnDVD burner, DL = #50 | 01:56 |
| soulrider | but dual layers are insane | 01:56 |
| Crell | Right now there isn't one. | 01:56 |
| soulrider | like 10x more expensive | 01:57 |
| Dr_willis | soulrider yep... thats the issue... | 01:57 |

| megapig | It says that I should try "apt-setup" or "apt-get update", but that does'nt work | 02:22 |

| Admiral_Chicago | xenol, same as any package | 02:26 |
| xenol | so i edit my sources.list and then sudo-apt get update? | 02:26 |
| Admiral_Chicago | yes, sudo apt-get update first, then sudo apt-get install foo | 02:26 |
| xenol | so those backports packages will be installed but if i sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get uprgade it will change back to stable package? | 02:27 |

| codemonkey2 | ill try | 05:01 |
| codemonkey2 | it did work fine yesterday | 05:01 |
| codemonkey2 | i getting all these wierd things, i setup bluehost hosting, uploaded a ruby on rails app up, it wouldnt work | 05:02 |
| codemonkey2 | couldnt figure it out | 05:02 |
| codemonkey2 | lastnight went to check it and it was working fine, and i did nothing like wtf hate that things just start to work | 05:02 |
| pegs-using-e17 | umm.. i had that experience with ms access once.. | 05:02 |
| codemonkey2 | he | 05:03 |
| codemonkey2 | heh* | 05:03 |
| codemonkey2 | its just strange it doesnt work do nothing it does | 05:03 |
| pegs-using-e17 | maybe it needs time to initialize? | 05:03 |
| codemonkey2 | i thought that | 05:03 |
| codemonkey2 | but couldnt think of a logical reason | 05:04 |
| codemonkey2 | ruby was working fine cause was gettting ruby errors etc,, but maybe not everything was finished. | 05:04 |
| pegs-using-e17 | logic??? | 05:04 |
| codemonkey2 | i had some luck, i registered a domain, then hosting, changed nameserver on domain, and it worked instantly, amazing :) | 05:04 |
| codemonkey2 | no waiting | 05:04 |
| pegs-using-e17 | nice | 05:05 |
| codemonkey2 | usually takes hours in my experience heh couldnt believe it | 05:05 |
| codemonkey2 | 2 secounds later it works | 05:05 |
| codemonkey2 | like bluehost.com but 7.99 us a month and 50gb plus 999GB transfers | 05:05 |
| codemonkey2 | everything you could need | 05:05 |
| pegs-using-e17 | thats great... | 05:05 |
| Kr4t05 | codemonkey2: It may only have worked for your subdomain. | 05:05 |
| codemonkey2 | maybe | 05:06 |
| codemonkey2 | actually one question i want answered | 05:06 |
| codemonkey2 | you got say www.bobjones.com | 05:06 |
| Kr4t05 | codemonkey2: It takes several hours for the changes to take effect globally. | 05:06 |
| codemonkey2 | and www.janejones.com | 05:06 |
| codemonkey2 | they map to the same ip | 05:06 |
| codemonkey2 | but are different sites | 05:06 |
| codemonkey2 | does the nameserver know www.bobjones.com is in folder bobjo etc? | 05:06 |
| Kr4t05 | codemonkey2: Hrm... Maybe... | 05:06 |
| Kr4t05 | It depends on how you have Apache configured. | 05:07 |
| codemonkey2 | how can it be configures? | 05:07 |

| codemonkey2 | yes | 05:26 |
| brianw | there are multiple ways to do virtual hosting | 05:27 |

| === rob1 [i=RobertSt@freenode/staff/rob] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| codemonkey2 | ok | 05:27 |
| codemonkey2 | does it mean when you lookup my domain | 05:27 |
| codemonkey2 | it it pointing to the nameserver i delegated it to | 05:27 |
| brianw | well that has nothing to do with it | 05:27 |
| codemonkey2 | its just 1 question | 05:27 |
| codemonkey2 | sorry offtrack here | 05:28 |
| brianw | I always get dns hosted for me. Then I just setup the A records www or whatever | 05:29 |
| brianw | it is usually cheap when you bundle it with domain registration | 05:29 |
| codemonkey2 | ok | 05:30 |
| codemonkey2 | but how does the whole thing work, delegation and mapping from domain to ip to my documents | 05:30 |
| brianw | codemonkey2: if you don't have dns services, then you need to set up bind for your domain | 05:30 |
| codemonkey2 | ? | 05:30 |
| brianw | well with name mased virtual hosting, you can point 2 domains to the same ip, and depending on what url they typed into their browser they get to one domain or the other. In your apache document root, you will have a dir named after each domain. like foo.com bar.com | 05:32 |
| brianw | but in either case you need an authoritave dns server for each domain. Usually I have the registrant provide this for me. Otherwise you need to set up bind to do it for each domain. | 05:33 |
| === rob1 is now known as rob | ||
| codemonkey2 | like my domain | 05:34 |
| codemonkey2 | is dailysoft.com.au for example | 05:35 |

| codemonkey2 | not the full name? that normal | 05:35 |

| matthew_ | smaggard, what command could I issue? I'll probably be running off a liveCD to do the copy... | 08:59 |
| smaggard | why not? that will make it where u can boot it and everything exactly like it is now, and then add another partition | 08:59 |

| racarr | No it's not | 09:00 |
| smaggard | dd wont destroy the source drive | 09:00 |
| racarr | But if the source drive | 09:00 |
| racarr | DOES break | 09:00 |
| racarr | you can't put the backup on another drive | 09:00 |
| smaggard | thats the craziest thing ive ever heard | 09:00 |
| racarr | smaggard: It's true | 09:01 |
| matthew_ | racarr, yeah, but I could just reinstall the OS and programs...just want to avoid that...lol | 09:01 |
| smaggard | of course if you have a failed recovery attempt you cant restore from the target drive.. nothing can | 09:01 |
| racarr | That wasn't the point | 09:01 |
| smaggard | i have used dd a thousand times to restore ppls computers to exactly the way they were before. OS, boot records, all of it. | 09:01 |
| racarr | the point was the reason a lot of people consider dd a bad idea for a backup is if you backup with dd to some other hard drive | 09:01 |
| racarr | then the hard drive BREAKS because of lightning or something, unusable | 09:02 |

| brae | icq | 09:02 |

| Asos_Illusionist | anyone to help a bit with the fglrx.. | 09:03 |
| bluebunny | Mathew: are you still going to use your old drive for anything, or do you want to switch over completely to the new drive? | 09:03 |
| matthew_ | so...what command _should_ I use to copy all the stuff? | 09:03 |
| dwidmann | !ati | 09:03 |
| ubotu | To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 09:03 |
| smaggard | but hes going from 20gb to 200gb.. just dd everything over to the new drive and make a new partition to get the rest of the drive | 09:03 |
| matthew_ | bluebunny, nah, going to trash the 20...maybe give it away... | 09:03 |
| Asos_Illusionist | okz.. i'll see if its the same way.. cause it's working but i aint got direct.. | 09:03 |
| smaggard | i think its dd if /dev/hda of /dev/hdb with hda being source and hdb being target | 09:03 |
| racarr | matthew: cp -a -x works, dd works in this case, rsync, tar, bzip, gzip, whatever you want | 09:03 |

| bluebunny | Mathew: I would just make the new drive master, do a fresh install of everything on it, then copy the important data files fromm your old drive. | 09:05 |

| === Eyeless [n=hjalle@h124n2fls32o891.telia.com] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| matthew_ | yep, I do want a drive that'll boot and everything... | 09:05 |
| smaggard | i have used dd on a ton of winblows computers too | 09:05 |
| smaggard | yeah just use dd, it gets EVERYTHING | 09:06 |
| smaggard | did u see the command i put above? | 09:06 |
| matthew_ | smaggard, but what about the geometry of the drive ? | 09:06 |
| matthew_ | no matter? | 09:06 |
| smaggard | dont matter... | 09:06 |
| dwidmann | An argument over which method of copying is best, yup, I am where I think I am | 09:06 |
| bluebunny | Physical geometry is mostly a fiction nowadays. | 09:07 |
| smaggard | i have used dd to go from old failing drives to new drives | 09:07 |
| smaggard | basically, you HAVE to make sure that you get the drive names right | 09:07 |
| smaggard | if you get them reversed, you will write an empty source drive to your drive full of information and have 2 blank drives lol | 09:08 |
| matthew_ | ok...so...I would do dd if /dev/hda of /dev/hdb ? Seems like it should be different...like dd if / of /mnt/slave/ | 09:08 |
| matthew_ | or something | 09:08 |
| bluebunny | You may as well try dd, but I tend to shy away from it. Just get the if and of right or you may hose your important data. | 09:08 |
| smaggard | so its safe to actually cd into /dev/hda and make sure stuff is there | 09:08 |

| matthew_ | smaggard, yep... | 09:14 |
| matthew_ | hda1 | 09:14 |
| matthew_ | but it should be cool, since the other partition is swap | 09:14 |
| smaggard | u only want partition 1 or the whole drive? | 09:14 |

| matthew_ | very cool...thanks a lot! | 09:16 |
| smaggard | yup np | 09:16 |

| sk | Bubba_Gump: ppl always do think it sucks when there is a change or something new | 12:53 |
| matthew_ | elin, lemme check | 12:53 |
| elin | ok, thanks | 12:53 |
| sk | so i rather believe a good review :) | 12:53 |
| sk | i also changed to linux coz its free and if i should start someday my own biz i want to make use from all of this benefits | 12:54 |
| sk | plus i love the osource thought | 12:54 |
| sk | but xp is a stable good os as far as i can judge it | 12:54 |
| sk | but i dont appreciate ms a lot | 12:55 |
| Bubba_Gump | heh sk, changes happen with me all the time | 12:55 |
| sk | beside gates does this charity organisation | 12:55 |
| Bubba_Gump | vista sucks because of the money involved to get it | 12:55 |
| sk | which is a good thing | 12:55 |
| Bubba_Gump | to mantain it | 12:55 |
| sk | if he just doesnt it to save taxes | 12:55 |
| Bubba_Gump | and to run it :) | 12:55 |
| sk | well sure its made for future hardware | 12:56 |
| sk | but as far as i have heard you can turn off airo and stuff | 12:56 |
| sk | and its faster then | 12:56 |

| sk | the gamers | 12:56 |
| Bubba_Gump | see i am not a gamer | 12:57 |
| sk | i dont know about others but a developer doesnt need that much from a os | 12:57 |
| sk | i think | 12:57 |
| Bubba_Gump | and for that reason vista will only stumble for me | 12:57 |
| elin | is it anyway to get rid of ubuntu,coz i am just using kubuntu now, but i installed my computer with ubuntu? ehh.. anyone understand what i am trying to say? :D | 12:57 |

| Sanni | Luckily I still live with parents, but not for much longer | 01:56 |
| wilman | Rosegarden was unable to find a high-resolution timing source for MIDI performance. | 01:56 |
| wilman | This may mean you are using a Linux system with the kernel timer resolution set too low. Please contact your Linux distributor for more information. | 01:56 |
| matthew_ | Sanni, you may want to consider doing a dual boot on your computer...have windows _and_ linux installed...you'll have an option to boot either one when you turn on your computer | 01:57 |
| Sanni | so id like to get this linux going for me before I move out | 01:57 |
| matthew_ | Sanni, that way, you can have games and linux...although it does kind of defeat the purpose...just don't go online w/ Windows...you should be good | 01:58 |

| pm2 | Blissex, true... The program I want to use doesn't seem to support ALSA, and just wants the path to the sound card device. By default it picked /dev/dsp, which works for capturing the soundcard input. So I guess I should be looking at that aoss wrapper? | 07:35 |

| === yannux [n=yannux@home.onbebop.net] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| Blissex | pm2: odd, but that may be because output is not set-up right. E.g. digital vs. analog. | 07:43 |
| Blissex | birge: some peripherals can only be used as 'root' or if the user using them is in a special group. This may be part of your problem. | 07:44 |
| pm2 | I see... well, running the program with aoss does the same thing that running it without aoss does... I'm thinking this may not be an OSS/ALSA issue, as the program has worked fine on other Ubuntu computers without needing much work. This is a laptop, however, so maybe the soundcard is more goofy. | 07:45 |

| Blissex | pm2: it should be unchecked or set to 'default' | 07:51 |
| pm2 | its unchecked | 07:51 |
| Blissex | pm2: the problem here is ALSA device names don't have a "/dev/" prefix... | 07:52 |
| Blissex | pm2: never mind them being called "/dev/dsp" or "/dev/audio". | 07:52 |
| Blissex | pm2: perhaps the KDE program you are trying is configured to use OSS. This is often the default. | 07:52 |
| pm2 | Blissex, it asks for an "Audio Device", and the default is either /dev/dsp or /dev/audio depending on the program. To use alsa, what would I put for the audio device? | 07:53 |
| Blissex | pm2: then it must be an OSS-only program. Too bad. | 07:54 |

| NameNomad | I'm having problems with my cdrw drive, and with any program that tries to use it. When I put in a cd, most days, and I select a program, it will show it initializing, and then the status icon will go away and the program won't run. A short time latter my computer will start lagging horribly, and if I leave it for long enough, it will eventually just stop doing anything all together, and I have to restart my computer | 09:30 |
