[03:42] yeah [03:42] No, that's not important. [03:42] the partition is most important [03:42] Because in order to write to an iPod, you have to use separate software. [03:42] That software, can see HFS. [03:42] itunes can't magically see HFS if the windows kernel doesn't support it [03:42] Windows, can see the USB port.

[07:46] so is that shift-lock === drivera90 is now known as driv[sleep] [07:46] ? === CoderX is now known as Matix [07:46] Ashton_K: it boots a small network boot manager from the flash rom, assesses the network situation, and then depending on that, it offers me the list of available boot images on the nearby server [07:46] Ashton_K - but yes, it is very pretty. It puts MacOS's eye candy to shame. [07:46] Hansel: I've actually tried ruby. I mean c++ won't be my first language. I've learned php.

Could I not just put my external HD into my laptop, then copy and paste everything from "/" ?...Would it work when I come to restore everything if I need to? Thanks [07:51] isnt vb really really bad to learn. I heard it develops bad habbits for programmers :( [07:51] nn: Class's are nice, but you can have OO of sorts in C as well, the VFS layer in the kernel is an example [07:52] yes [07:52] exs: not a great idea [07:52] nn: I would say that does OO as well as C++ through cleverness [07:52] Eh, while I'm in here, burning up my time. [07:52] Does anyone know much about RAID 1? [07:52] Beryl pretends to be OO [07:52] c++ is hard. [07:52] als - you can develop bad habits in any language...

[08:02] well, did you manually update your X config file in which you are now trying to run cedega? [08:02] I'm just explaining. [08:02] did you also update your cedega config to recognize your use of this video driver? [08:02] perhaps tar might be a good way of doing it too ;) [08:03] racarr: I just want to be able to restore everything perfectly. I have an external HD at my aid.

Users just don't want that [08:04] either [08:05] it just mounts them as ext2 [08:05] hansel? [08:05] Hey Ashton_K, I'm over-worked, under-payed, and in need of a day off also [08:05] Firefishe: unfortunately, i'm pretty sure you're gonna need an emulator for the hardware [08:05] exs, if you don't want to muck in the details, you're in the wrong distro. [08:05] how'd you back up your windows pc after a clean install ... drag and drop copies [08:05] you can still do that in linux [08:05] CheyenneD, no offense, but where'd that come from? [08:05] Ashton_K: ubuntu is begged to be the easiest distibution [08:05] racarr: dd'ing the drive directly imho is a very bad solution, what if (s)he has to replace a physical failed drive? === MarkoKaa [i=MarkoKaa@a80-186-159-121.elisa-laajakaista.fi] has joined #ubuntu [08:06] exs, you can drag and drop if you want. [08:06] nn: I rmbr reading about that. qemu for the emulation of the processor..that's what I forgot [08:06] nn: Probably a bad solution === Menasim1 [n=chatzill@212.116.213.5] has joined #ubuntu [08:06] But exs, I find command line to be easier than GUI. [08:06] Ashton_K: that isn't my point.. my point is that there's no nice GUI aplication for backing a system up [08:06] does anyone here use KISS firewall? it seems ubuntu users need to change the the reffrences to ip_tables, ipt_state, and/or ipt_multiport. what are their names in ubuntu? [08:06] See, you want GUI. [08:06] exs: Sure there is, we just don't know of one [08:06] racarr: i use tar because even two drives of the exact same model number may have different geometries (particularly maxtor drives) [08:06] Some of us, think command is better. [08:06] Ashton_K: well done, and that's available to you. But hey, there's some people that like GUI better than command, so where do they go? [08:06] Windows. [08:06] anyone know of a program to get videos off youtube? [08:07] exs: They research and find a GUI program [08:07] exs: Looking for you now [08:07] makuseru: keepvids.com [08:07] makuseru: there's a firefox extension for that [08:07] mak [08:07] Or they do it the geek way, and setup RAID. [08:07] :P [08:07] Forget it [08:07] i don't even have anything beyond an X server and tinywm on here (no clients, etc) [08:07] Ashton_K: I have raid on my thumbdrive root :P [08:07] racarr: they shouldn't have to look around, they are normal users, normal users don't want to dick around with an operating system for it to just *work* [08:07] Oh my. [08:07] You boot off a thumb drive, and have RAID on it? [08:07] That... is beautiful. [08:07] Ashton_K: yea, 4 thumbdrives actually [08:07] hansell you there? [08:07] exs: No matter what the operating system is, you HAVE to find a program to backup [08:07] hansel you there* [08:08] What kinda raid? [08:08] Ashton_K: 4x 2gb USB 2.0 mounted inside the thin client [08:08] exs: Or it comes with the distribution, ubuntu in fact does come with everything you need to back things up [08:08] Ashton_K: stripe [08:08] So, 0? [08:08] exs: If you do not like that approach, you can search for a solution more to your liking just as you would on any other systeme [08:08] nn: That is incredible [08:08] racarr: No they shouldn't, there's no law in the government to say "NO OPERATING SYSTEM WILL HAVE A BACKUP UTILITY" [08:08] yea, just to gain a bit more speed out of the drives [08:08] Quick Question, Can you RAID 4 250gb USB Drives? [08:08] exs, calm down. [08:08] Christ. [08:08] The thing with ubuntu is. [08:08] All you need to know, to install a program. [08:08] Is the name. [08:08] CheyenneD: Are you booting from them? [08:09] apt-get install programname. [08:09] no [08:09] Ashton_K: you shouldn't have to know the name.. ubuntu should have the application for you [08:09] Or applications ->install programs [08:09] CheyenneD: yes then, easily === soloik [n=jaimelex@pc-93-191-86-200.cm.vtr.net] has joined #ubuntu [08:09] and for an application that backs up your system, this is a high priority [08:09] There, a GUI tool for you. [08:09] To find applications, and install them. [08:09] CheyenneD: boot is slightly trickier ;) [08:09] Ashton_K: it needs to be installed already. [08:09] No, it doesn't. [08:09] Ashton_K: I lose 8mb on each drive, however for /boot partition (which i have to update on all 4 if i change it) [08:10] I have one int drive that the machine bootsfrom [08:10] Ashton_K: due to the bios having apparently random USB boot device selection criteria [08:10] So, you have one in each. [08:10] Ashton_K: yes it does. Normal users don't want to fanny about with installing programs. This is where we can get the advantage over windows. If we don't have that advantage, then there's no point to switch to linux [08:10] CheyenneD: yea, should be exactly the same as setting up regular raid [08:10] exs, in case you didn't notice, this is LINUX. [08:10] Ashton_K: a backup utility is very important [08:10] By the definition of "normal" we aren't. === Tomcat_` is now known as Tomcat_ [08:10] Since normal, is determined by numbers. [08:10] Ashton_K: yea, just 8mb, because the bios seemingly randomly selects which usb device if more than one are bootable [08:10] exs: There are well in excess of ten programs on your system you could use to back things up [08:11] Ashton_K: Yo know why ubuntu exsists?.. because mark shuttleworth wants the ubuntu cut into the mainstream [08:11] exs: Kdar might be what you are looking for [08:11] exs: Uh, I don't think so, I think it's because he wants to make a good operating system [08:11] I have my server make autobackups of my linux pc's monthly onto DVD's [08:11] racarr: but the normal masses of people want this stuff installed already, they don't want to dick around [08:11] (I don't use Ubuntu for my personal computer exs, I use Gentoo) [08:11] :P [08:11] I recommend looking in the package tool (synaptic i think it is?) === tahitian [n=tahitian@201.139.77.81] has joined #ubuntu [08:11] Yes. [08:11] exs: http://kdar.sourceforge.net/, it's in synaptic [08:11] Synaptic. [08:11] exs: Why? I don't want anything installed that i don't ask for [08:12] exs: My 8gb of space is very limited [08:12] exs: Ubuntu already has trouble fitting everything on one CD [08:12] exs: Ubuntu lets you do the LEAST amount of work among any distro (including windows) to find software, and install it. [08:12] exs: and a minority of people actually back things up [08:12] nn: You?.. I'm talking about the mass general population, they want everything available, already installed for that what is important. A backup program is important [08:12] See above. [08:12] racarr: Rubbish, totaly rubbish [08:12] Totally true, actually. [08:12] racarr: people actually don't like viruses [08:12] exs: Ubuntu is about giving you the tools to do what you want [08:12] I have my server make autobackups of my linux pc's monthly onto DVD's [08:12] That being said, you need to calm down, and listen to this. [08:12] I just need to say that, of all the linux distros for powerpc I've tried, ubuntu/kubuntu 6.06 (dapper drake) is by far the best! Most things work beautifully. [08:12] Ubuntu, provides, among any distro (including linux), the EASIEST way to install software. [08:12] exs: I work as a repair tech for a very large store, of the thousands of machines i encounter a week, guess how many have backups? [08:13] racarr: ubuntu is trying to get in the mainstream, if you don't know that, you're dillusional [08:13] exs: Not including all 13000 packages on 12 CDs [08:13] exs, every distro wants to be mainstream. [08:13] exs: If you want something that comes with EVERYTHING [08:13] If you think Ubuntu is alone in this, you're dillusional. [08:13] exs: less than 2 machines out the probably 1500 that end up coming through the shop, are actually backed up [08:13] why do you think it's a fork of the debian project??.. it's *EASIER* [08:13] exs: I think mandriva? has a reputation for that === blobaugh [n=blobaugh@dialup-226-249.lacey.reachoneinternet.net] has left #ubuntu [] [08:13] racarr: you're missing my point. ubuntu needs important software [08:13] exs: so why do they use windows then? what does it come with? calculator and notepad? [08:13] exs: It's there, if you look in the package manager and install it [08:13] if you want "everything" get it on multiple dvd's... [08:14] I don't think you understand exs. [08:14] it needs important software already installed, and that being a backup utility [08:14] It does. [08:14] exs: It's easier then having to go track down and install software (as in the case of windows) [08:14] the fact they give you cd's with shitloads of pkgs is a favor to you... [08:14] It's called tar [08:14] It's a nice, handy command. [08:14] The tar, mount, and cp commands. [08:14] Ashton_K: or look in the pkg manager (synaptic? :) [08:14] Hansel: The masses don't want everything, but they want a OS which has the important stuff. One being a backup utility incase the F things up [08:14] LIsten to me. [08:14] exs: And there's some there [08:14] For about 3 lines. [08:14] exs: Do you not look in the package manager? [08:15] amazing, I *asked*, and was sent three cd's of ubuntu for zilch,...pretty schnazzy! :) [08:15] Applications -> Add/Remove programs. [08:15] from *overseas* yet [08:15] Free software, easy to install. Since NOT EVERYTHING CAN FIT ON A CD. [08:15] Got it? [08:15] nn: this isn't a case of dicking about in the package manager.. people want, (THE MASS OF PEOPLE) who will be adopting ubunt uif it's capable is the important aplications.. one being a backup utility [08:15] exs - you are delusional... most people dont think about a DR solution and if they REALLy want to backup important images or docs they burn them to cd or to a usb drive... I know of 1 person out of the hundreds of nerds that use computers that actually has a legitimate backup system that performs nightly. [08:15] You know funny, I've yet to see a default backup application in windows, what THE MASSES use..... [08:15] I think we should leave this alone [08:15] exs: It has them, available via the package manager. Personally, i'd not use a distribution that installs more crap that i tell it to [08:16] Ashton_K: there's barely one there [08:16] Ashton_K: are you insane?.. norton ghost. [08:16] exs: If you want help with backing your stuff up you can PM me and I will walk you through any number of methods [08:16] Norton isn't installed by default. [08:16] Silly. [08:16] exs: umm...perhaps you could write one? sourceforge could always use a new project ;). [08:16] Norton is a separate company, you have to buy their stuff before it works.

[08:21] nn: I don't care what your wife thinks, I imagine that someone of your situation would try to find a geeky-wife to have. I don't care what she thinks should be.. The point is, is that the ubuntu system needs to have a backup utility because it's fairly buggy and the majority of users who WE ARE AIMING FOR really need a backup utility already built in.

[08:24] is there a way to convert .flv to .mpg in ubuntu? [08:24] exs - no it's not. You are extrapolating your opinions onto the entire user base and annoying a number of people in the meantime. Opinions are like assholes... I'm sure you know the rest. [08:24] Ashton_K: uh if{up,down} just use settings in /etc/network/interfaces to configure the interface(s) requested [08:24] That being said, unless if you have a problem with the install process, kindly leave us alone. [08:24] Ashton_K: I spent 2 hours trying to get my wireless to work when I got my laptop because the laptop has a 'radio frequency kill switch' [08:24] racarr: Ouch. [08:24] Ashton_K: That just reminded me of the ancedote [08:24] it was...er...fn+f2? [08:24] but I tried 4 kernel configs before I finally saw the kill switch in dmesg [08:25] Has anyone messed around with synergy? It's mouse/keyboard sharing over network [08:25] Yeah, don't you have it when you spend hours, and it turns out the only problem was user error? [08:25] It can handle clipboard, and move the mouse from one screen to the other when you hit an edge [08:25] pretty impressive [08:25] (My wifi card isn't built in, so no kill switch) [08:25] racarr: sounds fun, got a url? I'll play with it, since i'm hacking on a VPN thin client image ;) [08:25] racarr: no not yet; i've looked into it [08:26] I'm kinda annoyed though, hypothetically it should be supported out of the box.

[08:26] nn: It's in the repos and at: http://synergy2.sourceforge.net/ [08:26] I'm setting up Edgy and trying to get wireless working. I have a supported card, and it has worked in the past (for example, within the LiveCD environment, and occasionally when I go places it works). I'm finally making a complete switch to Ubuntu and need to make sure wireless works absolutely before I give up XP on my laptop. When I go to Networking settings and enable wireless, give it the SSID for the router here ("linksys") which uses [08:26] no password (so I leave the key entry blank), it tries to connect and fails. Ifconfig shows no IP address. However, I've just now checked my router settings and confirmed it has DHCP enabled. It works with XP. What can I do to get it working in Ubuntu? The card is supported, and as I've said, it has worked on a couple of occasions in the past. Usually if I couldn't get wireless I'd just boot up XP, but I'm giving up XP now so I must get [08:26] wireless working. Help? Please note that I'll have to boot up Ubuntu and out of XP every time I get a suggestion, so when I get some help, I'll have to reboot this computer. Thanks!

[09:39] x-r00t-x: what have you been using so far? [09:39] gcc is the compiler used by most, right? [09:39] If you want an IDE, that's different. [09:39] joe recently got syntax highlighting. <3 [09:39] gcc is pretty common. [09:39] als: yea, or tendra [09:39] Acidictadpole`: I would think so , but nothing will change until you restart X...but again even with FGLRX running sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart will restart X... [09:39] It's what the "make" option does. [09:39] x-r00t-x: or are you just getting started with c++?

[09:42] kidbuntu: in your terminal, go to the correct folder by typing cd /usr/bin [09:42] nn: ok thanks [09:42] !synaptic [09:42] synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager.

[09:45] Ashton_K: no, /usr/bin is in path [09:45] just like you can run 'cd' from any directory [09:45] because it's in a directory that's in your path [09:45] I was thinking it was somewhere else. === fenix_ [n=fenix@81-229-66-162-no10.tbcn.telia.com] has joined #ubuntu === Shin_Gouki [n=ubuntu@213.254.60.136] has left #ubuntu [] [09:45] (The yahoo messenger, that is) [09:45] speaking of PAth, why does freebsd insist on installing all sorts of stuff to places not in your default path [09:45] nn: it didnt work at all [09:45] nn: just out of curiosity, how did u learn all of this?

[09:46] hmm [09:46] Ashton_K: Eh? [09:47] lemme try and close x again then [09:47] abuyazan: compiz-gtk isn't AIGLX, AIGLX is part of the X Server [09:47] dpkg -l ymessenger* [09:47] i was thinking about that backup thing ... [09:47] so i got no borders for my windows [09:47] Ashton_K: wildcard for? [09:47] The .deb file has a bunch of version numbers on it. [09:47] kidbuntu, get the gaim messenger . its better than yahoo messenger on linux [09:47] If you don't include the *, it won't find the file.

[09:47] why does this work when i use it as a device for aplay? plug:iec958 [09:47] nn: well anyway i'll just use gaim [09:47] Kidbuntu, Gaim comes installed by default, it'll work. [09:47] abuyazan: If you can't get compiz working try http://beryl-project.org, I can help get you set up w/iwth it [09:48] hmm; i'm not terribly sure of how to go about it ... i guess it's unique to your situation [09:48] kidbuntu: gimme a sec, install it on my wife's machine [09:48] !emacs [09:48] Text Editors: gedit (GNOME), Kate (KDE), terminal based: vi/vim, emacs, nano (user-friendly). HTML/CSS editors: !html; Programming: !code [09:48] Acidictadpole`: Good! If you need help getting the AIGLX stuff set up I can walk you through it, it's actually just there with that driver, you just need to install the composite manager [09:48] But if you wanted to use Yahoo's client, you'd have to go to the directory where the file is (with the terminal), and type "dpkg -l ymessenger*" [09:48] nn: ok [09:48] racarr: aiglx? :) [09:48] Kidbuntu. [09:48] Where'd you put the file you downloaded? [09:48] Your desktop? [09:48] racarr: im interested in that beryl stuff too [09:49] Ashton_K : yep [09:49] Acidictadpole`: You said you wanted to get XGL working, AIGLX sort of provides the same functionality (at a very surface level) but doesn't require a whole other X server [09:49] Know how to use the terminal? [09:49] Ashton_K : yeah === Arrick [n=Arrick@unaffiliated/arrick] has joined #ubuntu [09:49] Acidictadpole`: The radeon driver can do that, so you just has to install the beryl/compiz/whatever [09:49] Ashton_K : yeah? i guess [09:49] Okay, open it up, and change the directory to your home directory. [09:49] how do I search for a file in ubuntu breezy? [09:49] type "cd /home/"user name"/Desktop" [09:49] racarr: whats the difference between aiglx and beryl? [09:49] Obviously, put your username there (this stuff IS cap sensitive, be careful) [09:50] Once you're there, type "ls", you should see the file there. [09:50] acidictadpole`: AIGLX is part of the X server, and Beryl is a window manager, kind of like GNOME vs Xorg, except gnome is a whole desktop enviroment and beryl is just a window manager [09:50] Ashton_K : then? [09:50] acidictadpole`: AIGLX provides the means for beryl to function, XGL does as well, but for your card AIGLX is the better choice [09:50] racarr: so you would say aiglx is more suited to what i was looking for [09:50] just incase i ruin things, if i mess up my xorg.conf (ive backed it up), i'll use the command "sudo cp /path/to/backup.conf //etc/X11/xorg.conf" Right? [09:50] "sudo dpkg -l ymessenger*" [09:50] Then typing "ymessenger" should launch it [09:51] Acidictadpole`: Well, AIGLX by itself doesn't do anything, but if you mean in comparison to XGL then yes [09:51] acck that package requires some crazy libs [09:51] What, the ymessenger? [09:51] racarr: I understand, shall we talk in a different channel for it (would that be easier?) [09:51] I sent you a PM [09:51] asanchez, yahoo messenger [09:51] Acidictadpole: ^^ [09:51] im not registered on this nick yet [09:51] is there a way i can dual auth?

[09:53] Ashton_K: it's an openssl lib, i'm looking for it [09:53] how do I search for a file in ubuntu breezy? [09:53] Ashton_K: you could install the proper packages and do a force install of the deb [09:53] Prolly. [09:53] Is there a 64-bit version of wine available anywhere? [09:53] Synaptic doesn't have the right libraries though.

[09:56] kidbuntu: you mean history? [09:56] You don't have to. [09:57] Shin_Gouk1: you can't, because swap is a different fs type [09:57] nn: if thats what you call it? [09:57] nn: yes [09:57] Oh, wait, brain's broken. [09:57] Yeah, it'll make 2 partitions at minimum. [09:57] But you can make quite a few. [09:57] I have 4 on this box.

[10:01] anyone familiar with supybots here? [10:01] Yeah, sure. [10:01] It's risky, but it's possible to do. [10:01] You probably won't need to though. [10:02] 120 gigs of space, with maybe 2 gone to swap, you won't run out of room. [10:02] Unless if you really feel the need for a separate /boot or a separate /home partition. [10:02] WHY its risky? [10:02] Resizing partitions after they've been in use for a while sometimes fails.

[01:21] un_operateur, because grub will overwrite bootsector on master where windows is [01:21] Acidtadpole [01:21] SurgeX: [01:21] my thought is that its safer to just have completely separate removable drives [01:21] !Restrictedformats [01:21] For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats [01:22] its GUARANTEED he will be reinstalling a lot [01:22] and trying A LOT of distros besides ubuntu as he's learning [01:22] holycow, and getting grub to add a windows option to it's menu is just a two minute job [01:22] keeping his windows environment clean and separate imho is a very good idea [01:22] that will let you play mp3s and all [01:22] un_operateur, sure, what happens when grub borks? [01:22] what happens if he swaps master and slave and the kernel can no longer be found? [01:22] what if he borks grub menu?

[08:24] fbc, its lighter and takes up less space than gnome or kde [08:25] i am runnin on a machine w/ very low ram. I tried installing xfce4 adn it was still slow so i'm am using fluxbox now and it is a little faster. Does having gnome and xfce4 installed previously hinder the possible speed increases that come with fluxbox? [08:25] ahh [08:25] fbc: XFCE is better under older slower hardware [08:25] un_operateur: How would you describe that experience?

[08:26] nolimitsoya: does dsl have the same hardware support and noob friendly interface that ubuntu has? [08:26] noodles13, you could also try out fluxbuntu, but thats still in development. i suggest dsl [08:26] tapiwa, yes there are ubuntu repositories that contain non-standard and non-free software which you can always download later [08:26] fluxbox rox [08:26] noodles13, well, try it and find out. :) it depends on your needs [08:26] Eclypse: you should install wine anyhow for lots of other apps and games, so why won't Cedega work [08:26] evo: the thing is it sais that the /media/ipod is only readonly-filesystem, cause when i try a chmod +w /media/ipod i get permissions changed to /media/ipod read-only file system === vmware [n=vmware@66-247-207-245.setardsl.aw] has joined #ubuntu === alecjw [n=alec@82.25.194.101] has joined #ubuntu [08:26] un_operateur: No with setting up ubuntu as a server?

[08:31] un_operateur: Yup, just windows 200x and NT based servers as an MCSE, but I'm really liking ubuntu alot, and having to edit text files to configure things has not discouraged me.

[08:33] fbc, that'll definitely help you -- teach you more about LDAP directories (the hands on) manually setting up different services like FTP or WWW, manually tweaking networking and firewalling etc -- i'd say, just go with it (with good documentation in hand) :) [08:33] evo: when i do unmount i get this : [08:33] un_operateur: I also have noticed that there are alot of gui's for administering those text files, so I may install some of those to ease the transition.

[08:33] zahrber oh I give up, I'm not comming back to this channel for a while...

[08:36] noodles13, yes, its quite nice isnt it :) [08:36] fbc, roger on that. [08:36] fbc, the LDAP thing (openLDAP) is not very exclusive to ubuntu -- it's for general linux and works the same regardless of distro [08:37] Wine is free so why use CEdega I do not know and I use WIndows for Gaming and itis good enough even though I use Windows at work all day long if I need to kill someone on Americas Army I use windows [08:37] juano :are you trying to umount as root [08:37] hooaahh aao [08:37] un_operateur: If that built in to NFS or something totally different? [08:37] NFS and LDAP are unrelated [08:38] fbc, NFS is more the filesharing side to it all -- like the windows SMB [08:38] does mark shuttleworth ever come in here?

[08:40] LordUltimaDavid, no [08:40] ivoks, errm, hardly mate -- NIS is sharing the /etc/* files across many machines using a server -- LDAP uses it;'s own kind of database that isnt like NIS at all === hrodriguess [n=Henrique@201.3.14.216] has joined #ubuntu [08:41] !alsa | LordUltimaDavid [08:41] LordUltimaDavid: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer).

Maybe we need more information on this [09:29] evo, thats the point of the line i just wrote. :) im just suggesting we find out the cause of the problems before things start to get chmodded, possibly wreaking stuff even worse [09:29] CorpseFeeder: You can't launch it from apps-sound and video?

[09:33] Tom, is he seeing the interface? === AnythingJ [n=dan@c-75-72-152-172.hsd1.mn.comcast.net] has left #ubuntu [] [09:33] un_operateur: I tried to install ubuntu onto my machine, the problem - gparted for partitioning gives two options manually partion or automatically partition. What i don't is why not let me partition my disk - have a portion for ubuntu thus at least 10 gig, then install on that 10 gig [09:33] k3b is stupid. Why does it install with only root access permissions? it's idiotic. [09:33] <_3dge_> the livecd works fine and ive checked the checksum, but the installer crashes on 52% (im installing on a dell e1505 laptop which has previously run xubuntu, slack, debian and freebsd) [09:33] jgedeon, sudo ifup eth0 [09:34] un_operateur: thank you for some reason I can never remember than one. [09:34] problem: manually partion - I don't want to make mess of the mount points. [09:34] jgedeon: alrighty, how do I bring up eth0? if it's ilfup then I just did that, and it's already configured === adam0509 [n=benoit@stc92-1-82-227-107-105.fbx.proxad.net] has joined #ubuntu [09:35] problem: automatically partition - i don't want the op sys to delete all the partition I had before install.

[09:35] jgedeon: already configured [09:35] i've got a problem... [09:35] CorpseFeeder : k3b is not stupid, the is something wrong, normally you do not have any problem running it as user [09:35] tapiwa, it needs to be told exactly how much space to use and where to use the space [09:36] Tom_: but eth0 isn't showing any ip address? [09:36] jgedeon: correct [09:36] dhclient eth0 [09:36] when i attempt to burn a dvd the computer locks up [09:36] <_3dge_> Rambo3: what would cause this problem though? xubuntu is based on ubuntu, just uses a diff desktop manager and that worked fine [09:36] un_operateur: with suse you can select a partition, then it sorts everything out (I mean the mount points). [09:36] Tom_: this is a wired connection correct. [09:36] Tom_ is the interface configured for dhcp or static? [09:36] jgedeon: yes [09:36] i'm using totem to transcode files from avi to mpeg [09:37] tapiwa, yea, well, suse is good at somethings -- that being one of them [09:37] bulmer: should be dhcp. that's how it was configured on install [09:37] i've got the log files for the totem thing [09:37] Tom_ then nn suggested command dhclient eth0 [09:37] tapiwa, it's not hard setting them up -- if in doubt, you can always ask === Redrose [n=redrose@cpe-76-183-30-81.tx.res.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu [09:37] _3dge_, easyest is to check launchpad , i ve never installed with live cd it allways fails for me. mostly gparted or some other util [09:38] <_3dge_> launchpad? [09:38] anybody have any ideas on what to check? [09:38] un_operateur: I am asking, I didn't know how [09:38] Tom_ if it still does not pick up an ip address, then use static addressing and ping the dhcp server see if it can be reached [09:38] !launchpad [09:38] launchpad is a collection of development services for Open Source projects. It's Ubuntu's Bounty and Bug tracker, and much more; see https://launchpad.net/ [09:38] tapiwa, and it's just better to manually set the partitions -- just like with windows [09:38] Anyone know what the names for the C man pages is named? [09:38] <_3dge_> i can partition my drives fine and format them, the installer just hangs at 53% of copying files [09:38] <_3dge_> 52% sorry [09:38] Redrose man [09:38] tapiwa, you asking how to set them up? [09:38] <_3dge_> it fails at the same point each time, ive tried 3 times so far === yass [n=yass@pla78-2-82-240-54-1.fbx.proxad.net] has joined #ubuntu [09:39] lol...

[09:42] CorpseFeeder : do a sudo before the command [09:42] evo: ls -a1ls `which k3b` [09:42] evo: it's way faster [09:42] CorpseFeeder : I don't sudo anymore [09:42] <_3dge_> (im using gaim from the livecd atm and its working fine) [09:43] tapiwa, but to be better off -- make 4 -- /boot (100mb ext2), /tmp (2gb ext3), swap (2x RAM) and / (whats left over - ext3) [09:43] un_operateur: please clarify, [09:43] nn : thx , i learned a new thing [09:43] evo: which returns only executables in PATH, however [09:43] Tom_: are you still here? === kwaz [n=kwaz@ool-4354ea70.dyn.optonline.net] has joined #ubuntu [09:43] hey.... i am using Network Manager Applet 0.6.2, and it says No network connection, but obviously i DO have a network connection cause im here talking.... anyone know why? or how to get it to show my wireless network there?
