[07:57] But I'm impatient. [07:57] That and it's Christmas break. [07:57] Ashton_Ke: it's worth going through the work to get it now [07:57] I don't doubt it. [07:57] Ashton_Ke: just use update manager and do the run though, last time I did it, it just took a long time with no problems [07:57] Ashton_Ke: you know, I'm really not sure if 2.6.15 will work with the new udev stuff in Edgy or not... [07:58] Ashton_Ke: although I'd recomend just moving your important shit somewhere else and doing a fresh install :) [07:58] Ashton_Ke: my problem was that I had an SMP kernel meta-package from way back in the Warty days [07:58] Ah, can't. The 6.10 disc hates my video card. [07:58] Ashton_Ke: then, they put SMP in the default kernels, and stopped updating the SMP specific ones === chuckwest [n=chuck@c-71-197-161-48.hsd1.or.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu [07:58] Ashton_Ke: them stopping updating it didn't get me till Edgy [07:58] Ashton_Ke: so, unless you installed an smp kernel, you are probably fine [07:59] Ashton_Ke: nope, it doesnt, change the vga resolution at the inital menu to something high, like 1280 or 1600, then try running it, I had the same problem, with all the odd colored lines and such === Oompa [i=Oompa@cpe-76-185-186-242.tx.res.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu [07:59] Oompa: wtf are you doing here? === mcquaid [n=mcquaid@toronto-hs-216-138-233-79.s-ip.magma.ca] has joined #ubuntu [07:59] I ran apt-get dist-upgrade once, so I've got the latest ABI that Dapper supports. [07:59] I believe 2.6.15 was the latest Dapper'll take, without a custom build of the later kernels, no? [07:59] PrimeHex: wow, that's a wierd problem you ran into having to have a screen resolution higher than 1280x... [08:00] Even wierder than Ubuntu stopping upgrading the kernel package I was using. === bluehero [n=bluehero@gprs-pool-1-023.eplus-online.de] has joined #ubuntu [08:00] whats an easy tool to look for duplicate files? [08:00] levander: no I head it was common, you'd go to start at default resolution, but the graphics would be all fucked up and such. So I tried it at 1280, my default reso, and it worked fine. [08:00] PrimeHex, please try to keep the swearing to a minimum in here =) [08:00] DBO: oh shit, sorry :P xD [08:01] DBO: isn't it late enough into the night/early enough into the morning, to the point where we can swear without worry of kiddies/ [08:01] Ashton_Ke: the thing is, you're supposed to have a "meta-package" so that Ubuntu upgrades you to the latest kernel for your profile. Most people are in the "generic" profile and so on Edgy use "linux-generic" as a meta-package. I don't know what it was called in Dapper, or if they even changed the name. [08:01] PrimeHex, the world is round === reperire [n=tim@dsl-241-126-227.telkomadsl.co.za] has joined #ubuntu === linlin [n=will@c-71-194-70-13.hsd1.il.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu === eno is now known as eno-away [08:01] Ashton_Ke: you need the right meta-package for updating security upgrades, as well as dist-upgrades [08:01] Ashton_Ke: you're probably fine though, i'm just being talkative [08:01] DBO: even in other countries it's just getting to be wakeup time... [08:01] Only one way to find out. [08:02] Ashton_Ke: try the cd one last time, but with a high resolution [08:02] Ashton_Ke: as long as you're not similar to what my situation was above, you're probably fine [08:02] PrimeHex, except australia, where it be mid day =P basically the answer is no, its never ok =) [08:02] Prime, trust me, I've tried everything with the Edgy disc. === Bakefy [n=westjd@c-68-58-41-69.hsd1.in.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu [08:02] The driver it tries, is bad, for one reason or another. === judgen [n=judgen@c-39a771d5.024-126-6c756c11.cust.bredbandsbolaget.se] has joined #ubuntu [08:02] Ashton_Ke: What video card do you have? [08:02] how can i make a command automatically run when i login to kde ? [08:02] (That's what I get for dropping too much on a 7800GT) [08:02] Ashton_Ke: oh, have you tried just booting to a shell, then working from there? [08:02] Ashton_Ke: funny, that's what I have [08:02] I got mine early, maybe a bit buggy in the firmware. [08:02] can anyone here help me with samba share?

[08:03] Bakefy: set the password as blank, then don't type one in for the login [08:03] how do i set the password? [08:03] Ashton_Ke: that's odd, i'd send it in for a new one, who'd you get it through? [08:03] Ashton_Ke: Maybe try installing hardware acceleration, which installs the proprietary nvidia driver? [08:03] Bakefy: on the windows machine [08:03] is that in the config file? === wayward [n=wayward@adsl-70-239-94-58.dsl.bltnin.sbcglobal.net] has joined #ubuntu [08:03] Ashton_Ke: and not the open source one, one written by nvidia themselves [08:03] Bakefy: set the password to blank on the windows machine first === neurotech [n=avatar@c220-239-13-191.belrs4.nsw.optusnet.com.au] has joined #ubuntu [08:04] grr there are spies about [08:04] Ashton_Ke: I'd try the (proprietary) nvidia driver, not the (open source) nv driver.

He may *need* the proprietary driver, just to get X to work on it. [08:05] arrenlex: you're back! (this is Red Death) [08:05] how do i install the latest nvidia driver, 9746, apt allways installs an old version [08:05] levander: oh, I had odd problems, but now that I'm using this one it's fine [08:05] PrimeHex: I am!

[08:07] levander: ah that's the word, I couldn't spell it so I didn't try xD [08:08] levander: It's not that big of a deal, I'd just like to offset beryl to the under-used proc [08:08] PrimeHex: lemme know what the name of the utility to do that is if you find it [08:08] levander, I'm using the nvidia driver right now.

[08:09] levander: the only one that i've found is schedutils [08:09] http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/setting-processor-affinity-certain-task-or-process.html [08:09] I believe I checked both of their MD5sums, I'll check later again. [08:09] Ashton_Ke: you know that if X does start up, and you can get to a console on the LiveCD, you can "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" to try to reconfigure X? [08:09] looks like it will work [08:09] PrimeHex: k, thanks === Shadowpillar [n=Shadow@dialup-4.233.125.53.Dial1.LosAngeles1.Level3.net] has joined #ubuntu === zzap [i=zzap@irc.zzaps.com] has left #ubuntu [] === toulouse [n=evan@adsl-76-212-48-192.dsl.hstntx.sbcglobal.net] has joined #ubuntu [08:10] Ashton_Ke: surely if you booted off the CD, it's basically right enough of a download to use [08:10] hey guys, i def. got my sound working === w30 [n=Dickrich@74-139-137-159.dhcp.insightbb.com] has joined #ubuntu [08:10] I imagine, that if I booted to text only, I could install it.

[08:11] If this hits the fan, what command do I have to use to boot the disc as text only? [08:11] (Live .... plus what?) [08:11] i ended up having to go to kde's sound control, and switching the server for xmms to OSS and kde's sound server to OSS as well === petriborg [n=ubuntu@c-69-139-153-49.hsd1.md.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu [08:12] yay im happy i got it working again [08:12] hi everyone === eobanb [n=eoban@CPE-72-128-82-3.wi.res.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu [08:12] juanchito2006: What is the fglrx driver?

[08:13] levander: the propietary ati driver [08:13] guest account = nobody [08:13] levander: ok, found an easier way, taskset -p -c (procnumber starting at 0) pid [08:13] so it will say "...-R user:xxxx" === mcquaid [n=mcquaid@toronto-hs-216-138-233-79.s-ip.magma.ca] has left #ubuntu ["Leaving"] [08:14] levander: yes all was well but when it came back up firestarter wouldn't start [08:14] SubMOA: "chown -R xxxx:xxxx /home/xxxx/.config" is what you're trying to do, I think. [08:14] toulouse: KDE has more applications, but I think GNOME applications look just a little nicer, especially the menus [08:14] levander: agreed [08:14] hey guys, is OSS better than ALSA? [08:14] toulouse: No? [08:14] or the other way [08:14] i like gnome better [08:14] mucho better [08:14] so, say my name is "sub" it would be "sudo chown -R sub:sub /home/sub/.config" [08:14] toulouse: alsa is the replacement for OSS [08:14] ? [08:14] most sane people do [08:14] :) [08:14] ;) [08:14] toulouse: OSS:ALSA::Model T:Corvette [08:14] so alsa is better right?
