snook353i've got the binary , but not the source - i need the source repos too?05:26
cellofellowno source, it's a binary proprietary version of Java.05:27
somerville32cellofellow, Java is released under the GPL my friend :P05:29
maxamillionsomerville32: 1.5 wasn't05:29
cellofellowNot the one in edgy though, right?05:29
maxamillionright05:30
cellofellowFeisty, on the other hand...05:30
maxamillion;)05:30
somerville32Oh right right... people still use Edgy and Dapper, lol05:30
cellofellowthat's the life of a dev, I guess.05:30
cellofellowusing Alpha software is a way of life.05:31
maxamillionalpha software i can tollerate, what scares me is alpha compilers ;)05:31

snook353ok05:33
snook353?05:33
cellofellowyeah, but what's wrong with apt-get?05:33
snook353idk why it don't show up - i enabled the repos05:34
cellofellowapt-get update05:34

maxamilliondon't intertwine the use of package managers ... bad things can happen ;)05:35
maxamillionatleast... they have to me in the past05:35
cellofellowthe apt-cache is the same, and apt-get update and aptitude update work just fine.05:35
=== firefish [n=yhy@218.2.201.80] has joined #xubuntu
cellofellowI mean they work the same.05:35
psykidellichi....i am trying to install xubuntu for the first time...i got this machine from my proff in school which was successfuly running debian before so I am sure that this machine works, but when I booth up and select to install (both VGA and non-VGA mode), the installation just stops after some time saying: 1 Analog Input Cannot display this video mode05:35
cellofellowso, why bother?05:35
psykidellici have a 19 inch dell monitor.....what can be the problem?05:35
maxamillioncellofellow: apt-cache != apt-get05:36
psykidellicwhat can be the problem?05:36
cellofellowI know, but apt-get update updates the apt-cache, and so does aptitude05:36
maxamillionpsykidellic: sounds like X is trying to display out of range ... could be because your graphics card supports some crazy hi resolution05:37
cellofellowyeah, don't do super high refresh rates or resolutions05:37
psykidellicmax it supports 1280 X05:37
maxamillioncellofellow: yeah, but aptitude does more checking and i'm not sure if you update apt-get if aptitude gets all the info its supposed to05:37
cellofellownever run into any problems here, adam.05:37
psykidellicmaxamillion and cellofellow: how do i change it?05:38
maxamillionpsykidellic: right, but if you graphics card can push 1600x1200, then X probably runs at that ...05:38
psykidellicit was by deafult05:38
PuMpErNiCkLeThe update is the same.  It's just a list.05:38
maxamillioncellofellow: fair enough05:38
PuMpErNiCkLeIt's during the install procedure that it does it's special dependency tracking.05:38
maxamillionpsykidellic: ctrl+alt+f1 ... does that give you a command line login?05:38
PuMpErNiCkLe*its05:38
maxamillionPuMpErNiCkLe: rgr05:38
psykidellichold on05:38
psykidellici will restart and check...the installation machine is right besie me05:38
cellofellowpsykidellic:  sorry, we've like 3 conversations running.05:38
psykidellicno problem05:39
psykidellici can figure it out05:39
psykidellicthere is an option05:39

maxamillionpsykidellic: you might need to download the ultimate boot cd and run a DFT on that hard drive05:59
psykidellicbut the professor was using this machine without any problem...okie..i have kubuntu....i will try that but i dont think it will help....05:59
maxamillionnope05:59
psykidellici hv no clue about ultimate boot cd and DFT :) sorry, from WIndows BG and previous knowledge of only RH which used to work fine....05:59
psykidellicBG = background06:00
maxamillionpsykidellic: http://www.ultimatebootcd.com/ <--- ultimate boot cd, the _best_ hardware diagnostics tools bandwidth can aquire06:01
maxamillionpsykidellic: DFT == drive fitness test ... its an IBM tool offered on that cd06:01
psykidellicaaah06:03
psykidellicgot it06:03
psykidellicdownloading....06:03
maxamillion:)06:05
psykidellicactually i didnt start download06:06
psykidellici went to the page06:06
psykidellichttp://www.ultimatebootcd.com/download.html - strange....there is no link to the iso image file!06:06
maxamillionclose enough06:06
maxamillionpsykidellic: yeah, they generally host them in compressed formats, you have to decompress to get the .iso06:06
psykidellichmmm06:08
psykidellicwhy is that? its just more pain in the A!06:08
maxamillionpsykidellic: costs them less in bandwidth ;)06:09
maxamillionpsykidellic: bandwidth is expensive ... :/06:09
psykidellichmmmm06:11
lebowskipsykidellic, why is a compressed format a pain in the A .. they are quick to download ... save you your valuable time06:18
lebowskiI would prefer a compressed iso .. :)06:19

akteehello everyone!07:20
akteejust a quick question -- how can I remove Xubuntu's default application, without removing the package "Xubuntu-desktop"07:21
akteeit seems like when I try to remove GXINE -- it always try to remove xubuntu-desktop with it07:21
psykidellichow are you trying to remove it?07:22
akteeand I know that if I remove xubuntu desktop, well, it aint gonna work no more, (i tried yesterday when I tried the same thing, but with ubuntu. It removed ubuntu-desktop and LOL!!)07:22
akteeI tried by apt-get -remove, and I tried with synaptic07:22
akteemaybe there's some kind of special command so that it removes just the gxine, not the whole deal?07:22
akteeif this is not possible.. hmm..07:23
akteehow about, really defining the default application of a file extension -- not with Thunar, but universally defining the default application (i'm having some problem with Opera that's why)07:23
aktee? :(..07:27

grumpymoleaktee: with regards to your question about removing xubuntu-desktop:08:00
grumpymolexubuntu-desktop is just a meta-package that tells what standard apps to install08:01
akteeso.. it's safe to remove?08:01
grumpymoleremoving it won't actually remove any of those apps.  it sounds worse than it is.08:01
akteePHEW :|08:01
akteeWOW last time I did it for ubuntu-desktop, It didn't boot anymore08:01
akteeLOL08:01
grumpymoleit won't remove your actual desktop08:02
akteemust have done something wrong08:02
akteecool thing !08:02
akteeyesss.08:02
akteeI have another question.. hmm..08:02
grumpymoleask08:03
akteei know, using linux means that I should RTFM, but.. I'm not sure where to search this, in ubuntu, in xubuntu, in linux in general, in xfce, etc..08:03
akteehmm, I must have misconfigured my keyboard at the installation08:03
akteebecause I ALT-CAR + 2 doesnt give me the "e-mail A" anymore08:03
akteebut when i configure it for 104 standard keyboard, it works08:03
akteethe thing is, I don't know how to put it default08:04
grumpymoledon't know offhand, but someone else here might08:04
grumpymoleso, you want to make 104  standard keyboard your default?08:05
akteeyeah, wait, i think i found it08:05
akteeit's probably concerning Xorg08:05
aktee(sorry kinda new to this.)08:05
grumpymolehttp://ubuntu.sabza.org/2006/10/13/xubuntu-easily-switch-keyboard-layout/08:06

akteeyes, but that's for switching keyboard layout, while I only want 1.08:07
akteeoh look08:07

aktee:D08:07
grumpymoleah, ok08:07
grumpymolenever had to change my keyboard layout before08:08
akteehmm..08:08
akteehmm ... /etc/X11/xorg.conf that's supposed to show me something when I open it with Mousepad, right?08:09
grumpymolesure08:09
akteeoop, got it. I went too fast and typed Xorg.config hahahah my bad :)08:10
grumpymoleaktee: you can blame your keyboard  ;)08:10
akteehmm.. doesn't work08:10
akteeit's already 104.. and layout is already CA08:10
akteeaw..08:11
akteeo well, thanks for the help :D08:12
grumpymoleaktee: what is the CAR in ALT_CAR + 208:12

grumpymoleso you are pressing shift + 2 to get @?08:14
grumpymoleor ALT key?08:14
akteeno, I can't do it at all lol08:14
akteeit's supposed to be ctrl+alt+208:15
akteeor Alt-CAR + 208:15
akteebut now it's neither of them08:15
akteemaybe it's because of Xgl08:15
akteetrouble came after xgl and beryl08:15
akteethose are two messy programs :)08:15
grumpymolei thought it might be related to the fact that xubuntu automatically installs with the right-hand alt key disabled08:15
aktee?08:16
akteewow08:16
akteewhere?08:16
aktee:| maybe it's that08:16
grumpymoletry the other alt key08:16
akteehmm it's assigned to a hotkey for XGL08:17
akteenow that I think about it.. with the other ALT, it doesnt execute the hotkey08:17
aktee... hmm..08:17
grumpymoleit can be fixed.  just getting a link08:17

KorN[CM] my login account for ubuntu is :09:46

KorN[CM] do I need a different account for samba09:46
KorN[CM] or can use that one?09:46
kalikianaYou mean the login you'd use to access your files form another machine? That has to be set seperately.09:47

surgythank you07:11
surgyhow do i tell what linux image i have? im running xubuntu 32bit07:14
surgywhould that fall under 2.6 K7 ?07:14
esc_on_lucidrinedunno maybe cat /proc/version ?07:14
surgyok i got it07:15
surgywhould a Nvidia Ti4200 be in the nvidia legacy category?07:16
esc_on_lucidrineno idea07:17
surgy"Cannont mark nvidia-glx could not resolve dependecys"07:19
surgyim missing a repo arnt i?07:19
surgywhat repo is nvidia-glx in?07:20
LjLsurgy: restricted i suppose07:20
surgyseams like i have my restricted repos on and it still tells me the same message07:22
surgyi turned on my restricted modules as it says in the tutorial, and when i searched for nvidia, in synaptic package manager, it brings up "nvidia-glx" when i check it for installation, it says it has a dependency that cannot be resolved.07:27
esc_on_lucidrinewhats the dependancy? can you resolv it manually?07:28
=== lonnb [n=lonnb@i-83-67-202-74.freedom2surf.net] has joined #xubuntu
surgyif i can resolve it manually i have no idea where to start,  dependencys: nvidia-glx:07:29
surgy Depends: nvidia-kernel-1.0.962907:29

esc_on_lucidrinedependancy issues are nasty07:29
esc_on_lucidrineso you have older versions of those libraries listed07:30
surgyumm?07:30
surgywas that a question?07:30
esc_on_lucidrineguess it was an observation07:30
surgyok07:30
surgybecuase i dont know what i have to be honest07:31
esc_on_lucidrinelike libgtk2.0.0 version 2.12.0 is expected but 2.10.3 is to be installed07:31
surgyyeah, but how do i give it what it expects?07:32
esc_on_lucidrinenot sure07:32
esc_on_lucidrineyou will have to give it a repo that contains the packegs it wants perhaps07:32
esc_on_lucidrinemaybe get synaptic to o an update07:32
surgywell i added the nvidia repo to /etc/apt/sources.list and i enabled the restricted repos in synaptic07:33
esc_on_lucidrineand what version of Xubuntu are you running? breezy, dapper, edgy?07:33
surgyi whould guess edgy07:34
surgyi downloaded it august 0607:34
esc_on_lucidrineok, now make sure you are getting stuff from the edgy repos, by inspecting sources.list07:35
Commander-Croweno07:35
Commander-Crowedapper07:35
Commander-Crowehe would have dapper07:35
esc_on_lucidrinemy guess would be to be able to use that package you may have to upgrade to edgy possibly, but check what the how-to lists as requirement07:36
surgyis there any place where i can copy/paste a new sources.list  that will contain all the repos i will need for awhile?07:36
esc_on_lucidrinethats a bad idea07:37
surgyesc: whats the benifit of upgrading to edgy?07:37
esc_on_lucidrineyou'll get your system out of sync07:37
Commander-Crowehehe07:37
Commander-Croweedgy isn't so buggie07:37
surgyyeah ill look at a changelog :)07:37
esc_on_lucidrinewell, i guess the benefit may be to be able to use that package you want07:37
esc_on_lucidrineyou'll have more recent versions of software07:38
surgyalso a few questions: does edgy auto mount ntfs partitions by defualt? and will it do the same for external media such as my ipod?07:38
esc_on_lucidrinedunno, i usually mount stuff manually07:38
Commander-Crowesurgy, yes it will07:39
surgybecuase i backed up all my emus and my movies to my secondary windows hdd and now i will need to access those07:39
surgykewl07:39
Commander-Croweyou would need to find a special driver to write to it though07:39
surgyok time to find edgy07:40
esc_on_lucidrinebut then again this machine here is still on breezy :-)07:40
Commander-Croweyou can read and exicute it though07:40
=== gripir is now known as gripiR
surgycommander-crowe: i plane on copy/paste the whole hdd to this one and then converting it to linux partition07:40
Commander-Crowethen you cool07:41
Commander-Croweyour07:41
Commander-Croweyou may need to install some packages from synaptic but thats really easy07:41
surgyso edgy is the latest huh?07:41
esc_on_lucidrinejust make sure your copy has been successful, before you go deleting stuff07:41
Commander-Crowelatest stable07:42
Commander-Croweright now I'm in 7.0407:42
surgyi think im going kde this time though07:42
surgylooks like fiesty heard is the latest there07:42

esc_on_lucidrinebut thats just personal preference :-)07:43
surgyits all deb though right?07:44
surgyso commands will be the same07:44
esc_on_lucidrineand i don't need a shiny gui, but a low-footprint07:44
esc_on_lucidrinewell07:44
surgyi like the shiny gui :)07:44
esc_on_lucidrinehmmm, yes i used to myself, until i decided that since i'm doing everything from the command line anyway, all i really need is an xTerm, and a desktop pager07:45
esc_on_lucidrinefirst KDE, then Gnome, then XFCE, now fluxbox07:45
surgyi plan on getting everything set up through the term and then forgetting about xterm until something breaks :)07:46

kalikianaIs there a panel plugin or something which checks for package updates available?07:49
esc_on_lucidrineif you have nothing to lose reinstall is a good option, in my experiance i've often foobared stuff with a dist-upgrade07:49
esc_on_lucidrinethough if you've spent hours configuring your system dist-upgrade may be the way07:51
esc_on_lucidrinebut thats just based on personal experiance07:51
esc_on_lucidrineat the moment my home network is a mess anyway, cause i'm too busy spending time at work07:52
esc_on_lucidrinesurgy, let me know if edgy fixes your problems07:52
surgyyeah ill be right here untill it downloads07:53
