| kalikiana | in germany even 16mbit is still the limit for personal use :/ | 04:35 |
| Jester45 | ha ha | 04:36 |
| Jester45 | most ppl in us that have broadband have 3m or 12 | 04:36 |
| Jester45 | many have more | 04:36 |

| kalikiana | nope, DSL, a disconnect every 12hours :'/ | 04:38 |
| Sharn | That fast on DSL? | 04:38 |
| Jester45 | dsl can get fast | 04:39 |
| Jester45 | i think the max is 30mb | 04:39 |
| Jester45 | but thats costly | 04:39 |
| Sharn | pbcrunch: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2050526 | 04:39 |
| Jester45 | there is a lot of DSL versions | 04:39 |
| kalikiana | There is no real difference in speed between cable and DSL here | 04:39 |
| kalikiana | although cable is a bit more expensive | 04:40 |
| Jester45 | cable noramly has lower upload | 04:40 |
| kalikiana | the good thing about cable would be: no disconnect | 04:40 |

| Jester45 | they arenot free | 04:54 |

| Sharn | BrendanM: What's the problem? | 04:55 |
| kalikiana | BrendanM, rar should work I believe, may your version be outdated? | 04:55 |
| BrendanM | I got it from the repos | 04:55 |
| Sharn | http://www.byethost.com/ | 04:55 |
| Jester45 | BrendanM: what rar tool did you use | 04:55 |
| Jester45 | there are 2 of them | 04:55 |
| BrendanM | unrar | 04:55 |
| BrendanM | Xarchiver claims to support those formats, if you have utlities installed. It's like Xarchiver doesn't know where to look for them | 04:55 |
| Sharn | !rar | 04:55 |
| ubotu | rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression. There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free | 04:55 |
| Sharn | Maybe? | 04:56 |
| kalikiana | It works via unrar for me... | 04:56 |
| BrendanM | yeah, I think I installed unrar-free | 04:56 |
| BrendanM | lemme check | 04:56 |
| Jester45 | i got both | 04:56 |
| BrendanM | yeah, it works fine with unrar, it's just that Xarchiver doesn't do it. So I have to go into CLI every time | 04:56 |
| Jester45 | make a command for it | 04:57 |
| Jester45 | unrar e | 04:57 |
| BrendanM | yeah, it's just that Xarchiver claims to support those formats: http://xarchiver.xfce.org/features.php | 04:57 |
| BrendanM | So I'd like to try to make it do that | 04:58 |
| Sharn | Is it giving an error or anything? | 04:58 |

| BrendanM | That's too bad Xarchiver doesn't seem to work with the free version. They should fix that. Is there a config file for Xarchiver anywhere? | 05:03 |

| Blaise | and Opera is working ok | 09:19 |
| drx0drx | psb154, I know, I was just wondering if when you DO unpack a tar and it has a /usr/... tree in it if the correct thing to do was to mv it into /usr | 09:20 |
| psb154 | drx0drx, so this is a backup of /usr directory ? | 09:20 |
| drx0drx | It's OpenLDAP-devel | 09:21 |
| rmd_ | you are amazing | 09:21 |
| grazie | yes...still think you've got memory problems...it'll probably fall over if you open lots of tabs...run the test | 09:21 |
| Blaise | ok | 09:22 |
| Blaise | if I do have memory problems, what can I do about them? | 09:22 |
| Blaise | (It fell over when to a flash site) | 09:23 |
| psb154 | drx0drx, the contents of the tar file will be extracted in the same parent directory you xvf it, you prolly know that. Then you can copy the desired files from the extracted directory to your proper /usr/ directory. | 09:24 |
| drx0drx | psb154, proper? | 09:24 |
| psb154 | drx0drx, the one in at root. if you: cd / then: ls you will see /usr that is your proper /usr directory. | 09:26 |
| grazie | Blaise: isolate the bad sim and replace | 09:26 |
| drx0drx | psb154, I noticed many of the subdirs had the same names as subdirs in /usr, so i just mv .../usr/include to /usr/include, e.g. | 09:26 |

| grazie | drx0drx: why don't you just get the .debs (for ubuntu)? | 09:54 |
| drx0drx | grazie, because I need it on both and i'm not sure evolution-exchange dev exists | 09:55 |
| grazie | drx0drx: check at http://packages.ubuntu.com/ | 09:56 |
| grazie | grazie: if you're using the .debs you will not need the -dev package | 09:57 |
| grazie | drx0drx: you only usually need -dev package if you wan to develop the source code | 09:59 |
| drx0drx | grazie, i meant to say .deb | 10:00 |
| grazie | tis a big difference :) | 10:01 |

| Sharn | Anyone run Xubuntu on a P2? | 10:02 |
| grazie | drx0drx: you setting up a mail server? | 10:02 |
| drx0drx | grazie, no | 10:02 |
| grumpymole | Sharn: i am typing this on a Thinkpad 600e (PII 400) | 10:03 |
| drx0drx | so I ran ./configure on another program and it built without errors, but when I type make it says "make: *** No targes specified and no makefile found. Stop." | 10:04 |
| Sharn | Hmmmm. Ok. I'm getting an old company laptop... all I know is it's gonna be a PII... Don't even know if it will be over 300Mhz. Any chance it could be upgraded to a 400? | 10:04 |
| grazie | drx0drx: you're in the wrong directory | 10:04 |
| drx0drx | grazie, where am i supposed to be? | 10:05 |
| psb154 | lol | 10:05 |
| grazie | drx0drx: i'm not telepathic | 10:06 |
| grumpymole | Sharn: depends on the laptop, but it might be a lot of effort | 10:06 |
| drx0drx | grazie, how do i go about finding it (the INSTALL file just says run make) | 10:06 |
| Sharn | Meh. I've taken apart my fair share of computers.. I'm more concerned about bus speeds. | 10:06 |
| grazie | drx0drx: you could have unpacked the tar badly too | 10:07 |
| drx0drx | grazie, i don't think so, because the ./configure worked and you just double click the file | 10:07 |
| Sharn | And it's an "Ashton Digital", a much older one that you can't even find on the internet. :P | 10:08 |
| Sharn | Oh well. Thanks. | 10:08 |

| grumpymole | Sharn_Away: sorry, got distracted by my 3-year-old | 10:10 |
| grazie | drx0drx: did you double click on the package archive? | 10:12 |
| drx0drx | yes, and it said "unpacking package archive xyz" | 10:13 |
| grazie | grazie: then you've not unpacked it correctly | 10:13 |
| grazie | drx0drx: I thought someone gave you instructions for tar? | 10:14 |
| drx0drx | grazie, it creates a folder called evolution-data-server-1.8.2 2 | 10:14 |
| drx0drx | then I go there and type ./configure and it builds | 10:15 |

| drx0drx | grazie, is there an option to have it go out and get these dependecies automatically? | 10:17 |
| grazie | drx0drx: yes, it's called apt-get :) | 10:24 |
| Sharn_Away | drx0drx: Just open synaptic and looks for the package... | 10:24 |
| drx0drx | grazie, that's great for Ubuntu, but not for OS X | 10:24 |

| cyberyak | does xmms play the windows .asx playlist files? | 10:31 |
| cyberyak | or maybe the better question, "What do I need to install to play streaming music from an .asx file?" | 10:32 |
| cyberyak | as in http://zradio.org/rock-128s.asx | 10:32 |
| drx0drx | psb154, I'm installing on both | 10:32 |
| Sharn_Away | drx0drx: Are the errors FROM Xubuntu? Or are your errors from OSX? | 10:33 |
| drx0drx | Sharn_Away, both give me the same | 10:33 |
| Sharn_Away | Get them working on Ubuntu, then go and find substitutes for OSX | 10:34 |
| Sharn_Away | http://search.cpan.org/dist/XML-Parser/ | 10:35 |
| Sharn_Away | There you go. | 10:35 |
| Sharn_Away | There's a download link to the right of This Release: | 10:35 |

| maxamillion | cyberyak: you might just need some windows codecs .... http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy#How_to_install_Multimedia_Codecs | 10:41 |
| cyberyak | thanks! I'll try that and see if I'm missing something. that and VLC should probably get me there. | 10:45 |

| PuMpErNiCkLe | Yeah. There's libxine and libxine-extracodecs. | 12:08 |
| PuMpErNiCkLe | Those two should let you play vcds in totem, assuming you're running totem-xine. | 12:08 |
| michaelpo | PuMpErNiCkLe: yes i checked my synaptic... yes i have both libxine and extracodecs... | 12:09 |
| PuMpErNiCkLe | But are you using totem-xine? | 12:10 |
| michaelpo | i'm using libxine | 12:11 |

| PuMpErNiCkLe | Yeah. | 12:11 |
| michaelpo | totem and mplayer dont support vcd? | 12:11 |
| PuMpErNiCkLe | Having libxine installed doesn't necessarily mean you're using it. Totem can use either gstreamer or xine, depending on whether you have totem-gstreamer or totem-xine installed. | 12:12 |
| michaelpo | which plays vcd? gstreamer or xine? | 12:13 |
