| DarthLappy | Well you could mount it and browse it. | 08:15 |
| DarthLappy | I don't really need to browse my shares so I don't know of any clients. | 08:16 |

| ShoeUnited | you'll have to create the mount point in fstab and mtab | 09:01 |
| Commander-Crowe | ShoeUnited, I have lots of times | 09:01 |
| ethos | what folder are those under? mnt? | 09:02 |
| DarthLappy | ethos: That doesn't look right.... | 09:02 |

| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about smb - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi | 09:03 |
| ShoeUnited | !smbfs | 09:04 |
| ubotu | smbfs: mount and umount commands for the smbfs (for kernels >= than 2.2.x). In component main, is optional. Version 3.0.22-1ubuntu4 (edgy), package size 375 kB, installed size 900 kB | 09:04 |
| ethos | If I switch it it just says the other one doesn't exist. | 09:05 |
| ShoeUnited | Personally, I just used synaptic, there's a bunch of proggies that will integrate smbfs into your normal window manager. | 09:05 |
| DarthLappy | ethos: You have to create the mountpoint. | 09:05 |
| ethos | is there a command for that or is it in a .conf file? | 09:06 |
| ShoeUnited | $ sudo mkdir /mnt/*what you called the mount point in your fstab & mtab files* | 09:08 |
| ShoeUnited | !fstab | 09:08 |
| ubotu | The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions | 09:08 |
| ShoeUnited | !mtab | 09:08 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about mtab - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi | 09:08 |
| ShoeUnited | might be mispelling that one. | 09:08 |
| ShoeUnited | Kinda sick lol | 09:08 |
| ShoeUnited | >.> | 09:08 |
| ethos | thx | 09:08 |
| DarthLappy | You don't really need to worry about mtab. | 09:08 |
| ShoeUnited | DarthLappy is probably right. I kinda try to cover all major bases. lol ^_^ | 09:09 |
| ShoeUnited | I can't remember if it's pstab or ptab that lets it act like a removable drive. :x | 09:09 |
| ShoeUnited | Just do a little reading through google and it's all pretty straight forward. | 09:11 |
| ShoeUnited | Or do like I did so many years ago, lol, trial and error until you can boil things with your mind, then look it up. hehe ^_^ | 09:12 |
| ethos | I like the man pages. Searching can come back with alot of stuff to sort through. | 09:12 |
| PuMpErNiCkLe | You'll need an empty directory somewhere to mount it to. A conventional place is in /mnt. | 09:15 |
| PuMpErNiCkLe | You won't have to touch /etc/fstab unless you don't want to have to run that command every time. | 09:15 |
| PuMpErNiCkLe | You won't have to touch /etc/mtab. | 09:15 |
| ethos | after i edit fstab do i reboot or just restart x server? | 09:16 |
| PuMpErNiCkLe | Neither. | 09:16 |

| merethan | hi all | 12:08 |
| merethan | I am trying to install xubuntu on a machine with 128MB RAM and a 350Mhz. PII. Should be enough I think. But the install is wicked slow. (not the copying but the program) for example: scrolling trough the locale settings (city list) took me 30 mins to get 10 places up the list. (unforunate for me, the list starts at L and I need to be at A) | 12:11 |
| TheSheep | merethan: use the alternate cd | 12:12 |
| TheSheep | merethan: the live cd installer needs lots of memory | 12:12 |
| merethan | for example the LFS LiveCD runs quite smooth. And xubuntu was made for low end. | 12:12 |
| merethan | wasn't it? | 12:12 |
| TheSheep | merethan: I thnk it would hang half way through if you have less than 192MB anyways | 12:12 |
| merethan | that's not really low-end | 12:12 |
| TheSheep | merethan: the graphical installer is taken from ubuntu | 12:13 |
| TheSheep | merethan: use the alternate cd with the text-based installer | 12:13 |
| TheSheep | merethan: it's fast | 12:13 |
| merethan | ok | 12:13 |
| merethan | ~650MB of ISO downloading wasted :P | 12:13 |
| merethan | luckily I used a rewritable | 12:13 |
| TheSheep | merethan: sorry to hear that :( | 12:13 |
| TheSheep | merethan: with a little bit of luck, in the next release the text-based installer will be included on the live cd too | 12:14 |
| TheSheep | merethan: but that's not so simple for some reason | 12:15 |
| merethan | text installer sounds like "does not take up so much space on a 650MB CD" | 12:17 |
| merethan | what makes it not simple then? | 12:18 |
| TheSheep | merethan: space is not the concern, I think. I don't know the details. | 12:18 |
| TheSheep | merethan: I'm just an user too | 12:18 |
| merethan | ah | 12:18 |
| merethan | well, at least I am now downloading the alternate | 12:19 |
| TheSheep | merethan: you can also just move the hdd to a faster computer, do the install and move it back | 12:20 |
| merethan | why does the about button is xfce, but INIT sais "starting gnome" at cd boot? | 12:20 |
| merethan | (I turned of the quiet mode) | 12:21 |
| merethan | (and the bootlogo as well :) ) | 12:21 |
| TheSheep | merethan: because xubuntu too uses gdm for the login screen -- the same program as gnome | 12:21 |
| merethan | ah | 12:22 |
| TheSheep | merethan: the text comes from the gdm -- it's not exactly accurate, it doesn't start gnome, gnome (or xfce in xubuntu) is started after you log in | 12:22 |
| merethan | wich is automated | 12:22 |
| TheSheep | on livecd -- ye | 12:22 |
| TheSheep | ss | 12:22 |
| merethan | I don't like graphical login's | 12:23 |
| TheSheep | merethan: you can disable it | 12:23 |
| merethan | I prefer everything text, exept when I type startx | 12:23 |
| merethan | I know | 12:23 |
| TheSheep | text-only login screen has some accessibility problems | 12:24 |
| merethan | If your eye's are bad, maybe | 12:24 |

| TuxCrafter | :-D | 12:26 |
| merethan | yup | 12:27 |
| merethan | frames | 12:27 |
| merethan | I am on a console now, frames can not be rendered in text browsers | 12:27 |
| TuxCrafter | was looking around what kind of suport is given here | 12:27 |
| TuxCrafter | freenode is pretty big | 12:28 |
| TuxCrafter | do you do special things with linux | 12:28 |
| TheSheep | TuxCrafter: what kind of special things? | 12:29 |
| TheSheep | TuxCrafter: this channel is generally for problems with the xubuntu linux distribution | 12:29 |
| TuxCrafter | system integrator or maintainer | 12:29 |
| TuxCrafter | jups i know | 12:29 |
| TuxCrafter | but merethan said he was working only on a console | 12:30 |
| TheSheep | TuxCrafter: well, I'm a sysop for student laboratories at a university | 12:30 |
| TuxCrafter | nice | 12:30 |
| merethan | TuxCrafter, console means text only. No mouse, no windows. | 12:31 |
| TuxCrafter | I saw some logs and you TheSheep are very active on irc | 12:31 |
| TheSheep | merethan: no gpm? | 12:31 |
| merethan | nope | 12:31 |
| merethan | I compiled everything myself | 12:31 |
| TheSheep | TuxCrafter: yes, no RealLife ;) | 12:31 |
| TuxCrafter | merethan: what is your reson for compiling everything yourself | 12:32 |
| merethan | Primary reason to do it was to learn how a Linux system works on the inside, second reason was speed and hard drive space. | 12:33 |
| TuxCrafter | business or personal resons | 12:34 |
| merethan | When you select "minimal" on Fedora install, you get ~500MB or crap. | 12:34 |
| merethan | No this is all private | 12:34 |
| merethan | personal experiments | 12:34 |
| merethan | when you need something for buisiness you better get something like Red Hat or CentOS | 12:35 |
| merethan | These distributions are set up by proffesionals | 12:35 |
| TheSheep | merethan: I've heard suse is nice for corporate use | 12:36 |
| TuxCrafter | jay I still want to do a experiment to see if I could get a complete working stations on a 4GB flash drive | 12:36 |
| merethan | But SuSE is now Novell | 12:36 |
| TheSheep | merethan: good group management tools | 12:36 |
| TheSheep | TuxCrafter: you can get a complete working station with X and stuff on a 12MB cellphone | 12:36 |
| merethan | SuSE was quite nice, but when Novell took the steering wheel they messed it up quite good | 12:37 |
| TuxCrafter | not with openoffice and all the tools I use :-D | 12:37 |
| merethan | OpenOffice takes a lot or RAM | 12:37 |
| TuxCrafter | My currunt working root is 7 GB | 12:37 |
| merethan | or=of | 12:37 |
| TuxCrafter | Ram is not a issue | 12:37 |
| TheSheep | mine 3GB | 12:37 |
| merethan | RAM is an issue when your on a cell phone | 12:38 |
| TuxCrafter | xubuntu clean is 3 GB | 12:38 |
| TheSheep | TuxCrafter: a little less, I think | 12:38 |
| merethan | I have Linux going on a Nintendo DS, wich has 4MB RAM | 12:38 |
| TuxCrafter | I now I do also embbeded linux | 12:39 |
| TheSheep | merethan: well, I had ELKS running on my 80088 with 512kB ram | 12:39 |
| TheSheep | TuxCrafter: ever tried OpenEmbedded? | 12:39 |
| TuxCrafter | did some small text with it | 12:40 |
| TuxCrafter | but mostly only used linux on arm | 12:40 |
| merethan | ever heard about Prex? | 12:41 |
| TuxCrafter | nope | 12:41 |
| TheSheep | no | 12:41 |
| merethan | Some funky POSSIX real time operating system for really small stuff | 12:41 |

| merethan | I've seen Prex on a Gameboy Advance | 12:42 |
| merethan | quite funky | 12:42 |
| merethan | not really useful, but fun to try. Some Austrailian punk has made a webserver of his GBA. | 12:43 |
| merethan | Not really useful either seen the speed it had, but fun to try :P | 12:44 |
| TuxCrafter | thats the strengt and weakness of linux | 12:44 |

| merethan | dunno | 12:44 |

| TheSheep | TuxCrafter: surprisingly, I find myself writing most of my text documents in Zim | 12:47 |
| merethan | I believe it already had one, but check out the site to be sure | 12:47 |
| TuxCrafter | I use mousepad :-D | 12:47 |
| TuxCrafter | and openoffice and latex | 12:47 |

| TuxCrafter | select text and tap will go forward | 12:53 |
| TuxCrafter | select text and shift tab (or crtl tab )will go backward | 12:53 |
| TheSheep | TuxCrafter: it has many funny and smart features | 12:54 |

| merethan | some have a "slot" for a BIOS chip | 02:59 |
| merethan | Why don't we have open source BIOSes? If we did we could combine Linux kernel and the BIOS into one. | 03:00 |
| merethan | Like the xbox game console has | 03:01 |
| DarthLappy | Ooh. | 03:01 |
| merethan | (xbox game console has a Win2000 kernel) | 03:01 |
| merethan | (but the idea is the same) | 03:01 |
| DarthLappy | That's a pretty cool idea. | 03:02 |
| merethan | This is not new. Actually, petty much any computing device works like this. A chip holds an image, wich gets loaded when the power switches on. Most computers (like Mp3 players) have the OS and BIOS all the same thing. When IBM designed the PC they made a BIOS wich only did initialized the hardware, and then loaded an image from the Hard Drive. This way, everybody could have his own OS. | 03:04 |
| merethan | Downside is, the HD needs to spin-up before it can get to work, wich takes time. | 03:05 |
| merethan | That's why the xbox game console does not have to wait before the HD is at speed. On xbox, the kernel and the BIOS is all the same thing, that's why you see that funky flubber animation emediatly when you turn it on. At the same time all hardware is being checked and started. Once the flubber animation is done playing all hardware, including the HD, is ready to go. | 03:07 |
| DarthLappy | Xboxen are cool. | 03:08 |
| DarthLappy | h4xx0r MS for the BIOS leetness. | 03:08 |
| merethan | If we had desided to do all software, including BIOSes, open source, we could have this on our PC's too. But because of popetairy BIOSes (Phoenix and Ami) we cannot do this. Apple ever made an attempt of using open BIOSes but it never fcame far. | 03:09 |
| merethan | unfortunate for us | 03:10 |
| DarthLappy | I should think it'd be pretty difficult to do, which is why the market is relatively small. | 03:12 |
| merethan | Petty much every computer manufactor only releases an popetairy BIOS, either a Ami or Phoenix, modified for their hardware boards. Why is there no one shipping an open BIOS/firmware? | 03:13 |
| merethan | I don't think the market is small | 03:13 |
| merethan | The market is just as big as the open software market | 03:14 |
| merethan | BIOS is just software | 03:14 |

| DarthLappy | Yes. | 03:17 |
| merethan | the base comes from Ami or Phoenix, but for every mainboard it needs to be customized. | 03:17 |
| DarthLappy | Meh, shows what I know :D | 03:18 |
| merethan | My old Abit-BE6 board has an 66MB IDE chip, and it's firmware is loaded from the BIOS chip. You won't find something weird like that in Ami's or the Phoenix store :P | 03:19 |
| merethan | oh BTW, those "compaq" BIOSes are just rebranded Phoenix BIOSes. | 03:20 |
| === X-Ception [n=ubuntu@pdpc/supporter/active/x-ception] has joined #xubuntu | ||
| merethan | Google is my best friend | 03:35 |
| merethan | Maybe I should go experiment with my old Pentium boards by loading Linux kernels into the BIOS chip or something | 03:36 |
| merethan | That would be fun | 03:36 |
| DarthLappy | :) | 03:37 |
| merethan | Most functions a BIOS does these day's are made for things like DOS, wich has not really any own detection mechanisms. Linux on the other hand does everything by itself, and petty much does not use any of the BIOS features. | 03:37 |
| merethan | altough a BIOS would be nice to set the system clock and stuff like that | 03:37 |
| merethan | And some stupid chips need firmware to be loaded from the BIOS. Luckily for me those early Pentium boards do not contain any exotic hardware who need special BIOS features. So maybe I can get an old Pentium board to have a Linux shell in 3 secs from power-on! | 03:39 |
| merethan | yeah baby | 03:39 |

| somerville32 | *renamer | 10:00 |
| mirf | oooh | 10:00 |
| mirf | I think I have that plugin installed.. | 10:01 |
| somerville32 | It comes default | 10:01 |
| mirf | although I think it would still require a lot of manual work | 10:01 |
| Tajmox | i think you have it installed too | 10:01 |
| somerville32 | mirf: If the tags aren't set, then yes | 10:01 |

| liquidengineer | Hi there | 12:13 |
| liquidengineer | I'm trying to connect to a WPA protected nework | 12:13 |
| liquidengineer | but network-admin only shows WEP password entry | 12:13 |
| liquidengineer | *shows=allows | 12:13 |
| roflarn | i think u need a package called wpa_supplicant | 12:14 |
| liquidengineer | that's not standard? | 12:14 |
| somerville32 | !info wpa_supplicant | 12:14 |
| ubotu | Package wpa_supplicant does not exist in any distro I know | 12:14 |
| somerville32 | !find wpa | 12:14 |
| ubotu | Found: wpasupplicant, wpagui | 12:14 |
| somerville32 | !info wpasupplicant | 12:14 |
| ubotu | wpasupplicant: Client support for WPA and WPA2 (IEEE 802.11i). In component main, is important. Version 0.5.4-5 (edgy), package size 227 kB, installed size 588 kB | 12:14 |
| somerville32 | !wpagui | 12:14 |
| ubotu | wpagui: GUI for wpa_supplicant. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.5.4-5 (edgy), package size 96 kB, installed size 224 kB | 12:14 |
| roflarn | yep there u got it | 12:14 |
| liquidengineer | I'm on dapper | 12:15 |
| liquidengineer | will that make a difference? | 12:15 |
| roflarn | im pretty sure its in dapper repo's too :> | 12:15 |
| liquidengineer | ah | 12:15 |
| liquidengineer | I'm on my mac right now | 12:15 |
| liquidengineer | can I download the files and transfer them over? | 12:15 |
| roflarn | dunno :p | 12:16 |
| liquidengineer | I'm kind of suprised its not a standard package | 12:16 |
| somerville32 | liquidengineer, Yeah but I wouldn't recommend it. | 12:16 |

| liquidengineer | somerville32: Then I've got a problem. | 12:17 |
| somerville32 | liquidengineer, How so? | 12:17 |
| liquidengineer | I don't have any way to connect otherwise | 12:17 |
| liquidengineer | I'm running a purely wireless setup | 12:17 |
| liquidengineer | I'll have to take it somewhere else to hook it up with a hardline | 12:17 |
| liquidengineer | Thing is, I'm running off a livecd right now | 12:19 |
| liquidengineer | so wouldn't I have to reinstall this thing every time I wanted to use a wpa network? | 12:20 |

| somerville32 | Yup. | 12:20 |
| somerville32 | You could download it | 12:20 |
| vidd_laptop | are you only going to use live cd? | 12:20 |
| Pirate-king | hello | 12:20 |
| somerville32 | And put it on a floppy or something | 12:20 |
| somerville32 | Pirate-king, HI :) | 12:21 |
| liquidengineer | I eventually want to do a full install. | 12:21 |
| Pirate-king | could a p200 be a server with xbuntu? | 12:21 |
| liquidengineer | I was hoping to keep it on the livecd long enough to experiment | 12:21 |
| vidd_laptop | Pirate-king, JUST ABOUT anything CAN BE A SERVER WITH LINUX | 12:22 |
| vidd_laptop | *&%%^$ caps lock!!! | 12:22 |
| Pirate-king | ok to windows boxes | 12:22 |
| somerville32 | :/ | 12:22 |
| somerville32 | vidd_laptop: What are you on? | 12:22 |
| somerville32 | Pirate-King: Yes. a p200 could be a server. | 12:23 |
| somerville32 | What do you want to do on your server? | 12:23 |
| liquidengineer | Thanks for the help | 12:23 |
| liquidengineer | Bye. :D | 12:23 |
| Pirate-king | mp3's pictures | 12:23 |
| somerville32 | ie. a file server? | 12:23 |
| Pirate-king | I got a 200 doing nothing | 12:24 |
| Pirate-king | yes file serve | 12:24 |
| Pirate-king | yes file server | 12:24 |
| somerville32 | So you'll want to setup samba | 12:25 |
| Pirate-king | ok | 12:25 |
| somerville32 | !samba | Pirate-king | 12:25 |
