| khaije1 | premier_: alot of the statements people make about linux aren't really saying what it *is* as much as what it can be, ubuntu is intended to included lots of new software, part of the reason why it's popular, but certain it's possible for problems to arise especially when you're first learning yr way around fixes tend to be more hackish | 01:11 |
| Dr_willis | then theres unlearning the bad windows habbits | 01:12 |
| khaije1 | premier_: if your goal is to learn it, make sure you set up yr system in a way that you seperate yr OS from yr user data so that you can reinstall on a whim, thats my recommendation | 01:12 |

| Dr_willis | Kite_DH, if you 'must' you do the first 2 commands that site shows.. then add one of the sources.list entry to your sources.list file | 03:15 |

| DaSkreech | When I was running on Breezy before it came out I'd update a package and before it was installed there would be a new one on the server | 03:22 |
| dwidmann | They'll read something more like 3.8 though | 03:22 |
| tuco | right now it seems that it is the onboard sound working and not the audigy | 03:23 |
| Dr_willis | tuco, NOW you are gtting to the actual problem... | 03:23 |

| Schuenemann | I can't believe I'm the only one around with that problem :) | 03:28 |

| flaccid0es | can i read about this, or just accept hearsay? | 03:39 |
| flaccid0es | no IT manager will accept a comment on IRC for support | 03:39 |

| ubotu | ppc is PowerPC. Formerly used by Apple for the Macintosh line of computers, and now a fully supported Ubuntu architecture. | 03:40 |
| fudgey | xdm? | 03:41 |
| jmichaelx | PPC = soon to be not so fully supprted by ubuntu | 03:41 |
| flaccid0es | Jucato: it says i get other updates, what are they? it also says quality assurance - to what extent? | 03:41 |
| dwidmann | fudgey, apart from that, I saw a really interesting way to do autologin without using a login manager, it looked cool | 03:41 |
| fudgey | LOL | 03:41 |

| Solaris444 | yes. | 03:41 |
| Dr_willis | it uses a CELL processor thats a ppc variant | 03:41 |
| DaSkreech | read teh PPC argument on teh wiki :) | 03:41 |
| jmichaelx | i had no idea lol | 03:41 |
| Solaris444 | well Cell is a PPC variant. | 03:42 |
| Solaris444 | er what willis said. | 03:42 |
| Dr_willis | :) | 03:42 |
| Dr_willis | and i dont even own one.. | 03:42 |
| flaccid0es | Jucato: why is that not detailed in the document. why is the document so hard to get to and why is quality assurance not defined. if i was quality assured, i wouldn't have to worry about bugs... | 03:42 |

| whiz2 | I'm trying to configure vncserver anybody have any experience in it? | 03:43 |
| DaSkreech | flaccid0es: No software is bug free | 03:43 |
| SolidSource | Solaris444: yes | 03:43 |
| Dr_willis | vnc - is very handy. | 03:43 |

| flaccid0es | DaSkreech: i never said it was farken! | 03:43 |
| Solaris444 | SolidSource: How would I do that? | 03:43 |
| Dr_willis | vnc also has a dozen variants and all sorts of little tricks and traps. | 03:43 |
| Dr_willis | :) | 03:43 |
| dwidmann | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_processor | 03:43 |
| flaccid0es | you guys just don't get it | 03:43 |
| Jucato | flaccid0es: I'd suggest you also ask in #kubuntu-devel or #ubuntu-devel | 03:43 |
| flaccid0es | you are assuring quality to the public | 03:43 |
| Dr_willis | 0 bugs = all comments :) | 03:43 |
| flaccid0es | and not delivering.... | 03:43 |
| flaccid0es | Jucato: i don't think i'll waste my time :) | 03:43 |
| jmichaelx | flaccid0es: what are you carrying on about? | 03:44 |
| flaccid0es | why assure something, you cannot assure.... | 03:44 |
| DaSkreech | a 404 on a software that you installed is not quality assurance? | 03:44 |
| flaccid0es | sounds like commercial bull to me | 03:44 |
| Jucato | flaccid0es: so it's more worthwhile to rant about not having documentation on these, etc. and it's a waste of time asking people who would know more about these stuff? | 03:44 |
| whiz2 | vncserver specifically | 03:44 |
| flaccid0es | well yes if it was quality, it wouldn't have a 404 | 03:44 |
| BluesKaj | whaddya want for free ... if ya don't like linux , get vista ...see how debgged it is :) | 03:44 |
| jmichaelx | flaccid0es: you got a free OS with a guarantee of long term security updates | 03:44 |
| flaccid0es | if people don't complain, how will things change? | 03:45 |
| Jucato | flaccid0es: your concept of quality seems to be based on "perfect/no errors" | 03:45 |
| SolidSource | Solaris444: well, your host machine has to have the profile with the exact same username/passsword and then use smbpasswd to declare that user is allowed that access in samba | 03:45 |
| DaSkreech | but you installed it. It wasn't intended to be there when it shipped | 03:45 |
| flaccid0es | but i also get quality assurance | 03:45 |
| Jucato | flaccid0es: you are complaining to the wrong people tthough | 03:45 |
| flaccid0es | whatever the f*** that is | 03:45 |
| Dr_willis | whiz2, theres several variants of vncserver. i tend to use the 'vnc4server' and clients | 03:45 |
| dwidmann | that was already fixed for the "Edgy Eft" release by the looks of things flaccid0es | 03:45 |
| flaccid0es | Jucato: its not defined any other way | 03:45 |

| whiz2 | i'm trying to use vnc to access a linux server from a win32 client | 03:45 |

| === cpk1 rolls eyes | ||
| === dwidmann echoes Dr_willis | ||
| DaSkreech | BSD fan I take it :) | 03:46 |
| Dr_willis | whiz2, i normally ssh to the linux box, run vncserver as the user.. then run the vncslient on the windows box and connect to the linux machine. | 03:46 |
| SolidSource | Solaris444: so if your username = RedBurn and password = money34...then each machine would have to have that exact same in order not to be asked for a password | 03:46 |
| Solaris444 | Right. | 03:46 |
| whiz2 | ok, but i dunno how to do any of that | 03:46 |
| Dr_willis | whiz2, that gives you a 'desktop in the background' :) | 03:46 |
| Dr_willis | whiz2, which part? its rather straight forward.. | 03:46 |
| Solaris444 | But I don't have to log in as that user right? | 03:46 |
| whiz2 | can i controll the linux box from the win32 client cmputer? | 03:47 |
| Dr_willis | whiz2, vnc can show you a 'desktop' in a window.. correct.. | 03:47 |
| whiz2 | What do I install, where do i put it, and how do i configure it? | 03:47 |
| Dr_willis | vnc on linux can also have several 'background' desktops that are not seen by anyone sitting in front of the linux box | 03:47 |
| Dr_willis | !vnc | 03:47 |
| ubotu | VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely. It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX | 03:47 |
| SolidSource | Solaris444: on the guest machine you do...unless you are given the option to save your username/password on the guest machine | 03:47 |

| Solaris444 | thanks SolidSource. I'll have to find some other way then because we cannot afford for the user of the machine to know the username and password for that share. | 03:48 |
| Solaris444 | Hmm, perhaps I can do it on the server side. | 03:49 |
| Solaris444 | I'll look into it. | 03:49 |
| whiz2 | local right now, but want to have access over the internet as well | 03:49 |

| Dr_willis | OR ya can use vnc to share the currently running desktop (but i never do it that way) | 03:50 |
| Schuenemann | !wma | 03:50 |
| SolidSource | Solaris444: well, I have it setup sort of like that...but I have another user account setup so that ppl can login, but only if I give them the login info...then it has rotating password | 03:50 |

| Solaris444 | This is a PIII 667MHz. | 03:51 |
| yamathan | Well, it's official -- my Windows installation is dead. | 03:51 |

| whiz2 | I want to be able to do this to the linux box as well | 03:51 |
| yamathan | My NTFS partition isn't showing up now, though! | 03:51 |
| Schuenemann | maybe dapper comes without it, since I never got that message before? | 03:51 |
| Dr_willis | whiz2, install vnc4server then. or some other vncserver | 03:51 |
| Dr_willis | !info vnc4server | 03:51 |
| ubotu | vnc4server: Virtual network computing server software. In component universe, is optional. Version 4.1.1+xorg1.0.2-0ubuntu1.6.10.1 (edgy), package size 1041 kB, installed size 2412 kB | 03:51 |
| yamathan | Is there any way that I could still back up my files from the NTFS partition that no longer seems to function for Windows? | 03:51 |
| whiz2 | i ran apt-get install vncserver | 03:51 |
| whiz2 | that package is installed, but I have no clue how to configure it | 03:52 |
| Dr_willis | whiz2, or if you want to share the currently running desktop.. thers some other way to do that. | 03:52 |
| Dr_willis | whiz2, run 'vncserver' from the shell... | 03:52 |
| whiz2 | I want to be able to share the whole thing | 03:52 |
| BluesKaj | Solaris444, suse ?...how do you deal with that messy Yast pkg manager ...it sucks | 03:52 |
| Schuenemann | wasn't there a program called kxconfig? | 03:52 |
| Dr_willis | gnome and kde both have some way of sharing the running desktop. but i never use it.. i find it very slow - and for what i need vnc for - it dosent to the job i need. :) | 03:52 |
| Solaris444 | BluesKaj: 10.2 isn't too bad. | 03:52 |

| SolidSource | anyone use FreeBSD? | 03:53 |
| whiz2 | the server is running... will it start every time I start the linux box now? | 03:54 |
| Dr_willis | whiz2, No.. | 03:54 |
| Dr_willis | that vncserver is for the specific user that started it. | 03:54 |
| whiz2 | ok | 03:54 |
| Dr_willis | you could in theory have a dozen+ vncserver/desktops running - each with different desktops :) | 03:54 |
| Dr_willis | thats what I use it for,. | 03:54 |
| BluesKaj | i tried the freebsd live cd latest ...not to impresssed | 03:54 |

| BluesKaj | too | 03:55 |
| yamathan | WinXP is dead, whereas I am not! XD | 03:55 |
| Dr_willis | now you just connect the vncviewer to the vncserver ip# and display # | 03:55 |
| whiz2 | permission denied | 03:55 |
| SolidSource | yamathon: you can mount the NTFS partition | 03:55 |
| Dr_willis | it should of asked to set a vncserver password also. | 03:55 |

| slyfox | Is it posssible and is it the right way to do so?

| Dr_willis | slyfox, you can login as user, and do 'sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade" | 05:06 |
| SlackRat | a root account cant be activated, but it is easy to trash your ubuntu , more so than with distros that have su access by default | 05:06 |

| Kite_DH | Dr_willis: the guys in #mplayer said i should create it and put the codecs in there | 05:07 |
| slyfox | Dr_willis: and it will ask me for the sudo password and I will enter it and it will work eventhough I am logged in under some other than admnistrator user account ? | 05:07 |

| SolidSource | I have the latest mplayer....it still sucks, has no features and hangs a lot | 06:20 |
| SlackRat | on dapper | 06:20 |
| khaije1 | Kite_DH: try the vlc plugin, 'sudo apt-get install mozilla-plugin-vlc vlc-plugin-alsa' | 06:20 |
| SlackRat | yeah, prefer vlc myself for problem media | 06:20 |
| Kite_DH | i got VLC ,yes | 06:20 |
| Kite_DH | so i should uninstall mplay? | 06:21 |

| donald | Somebody please help. I am using a Conexant modem and I am using greatdialup.com for free dialup, and I have the dialup number, user ID, and password. I am having troubles with my modem. | 06:21 |
| jmichaelx | it is strange... i have kubuntu edgy installed on 2 desktops and one laptop. on the laptop, embedded videos play just fine in firefox.... on the 2 desktops, howver, i had to configure the videos to play in a separate window to get them to work | 06:21 |
| Kite_DH | mplayer sux somehow | 06:21 |
| jmichaelx | i don't know what the difference was | 06:21 |
| SlackRat | no, i tend to keep a few media players cause they all run into probs with certain formata | 06:21 |
| khaije1 | Kite_DH: i'm not certain, but that would be the first thing i'd try, bear in mind though i don't think there are any ways to play recent versions of wmv | 06:21 |
| SlackRat | friggen DRM | 06:21 |
| donald | Can somebody help me with setting up my Conexant modem? | 06:21 |

| khaije1 | SlackRat: drm really is a pain isn't it | 06:22 |
| SlackRat | more than that, its an invasion of civil liberty | 06:22 |
| jmichaelx | DRM is what sucks, but i think at least some forms of DRM may be coming to linux soon.... | 06:23 |
| khaije1 | it's hard to explain to someone they can't watch their *ahem* movies because of some corporation | 06:23 |
| SlackRat | friends have trouble in other countries if they want to bring a dvd when they visit | 06:23 |
| SlackRat | which leads to more piracy, not less | 06:23 |
| Kite_DH | khaije1: not even with VLC? | 06:23 |
| SolidSource | no one has anything for huge collections of music....amarok has issues with keeping the database udated | 06:23 |
| jmichaelx | but you can play most .wmv videos in linux. i do it all the time in firefox | 06:23 |
| Kite_DH | jmichaelx: maybe u can help me then | 06:23 |
| khaije1 | Kite_DH: that is the latest i've heard, it may have changed i haven't checked in at least 6 months | 06:24 |
| jmichaelx | SolidSource: you just need to rescan your collection occasionally... it's not a big deal | 06:24 |
| SlackRat | jmichael, what do you mean coming to linux soon? | 06:24 |
| SolidSource | jmichaelx: I know it works...it hangs and stalls the program trying to scan my collection | 06:24 |
| Kite_DH | khaije1: thats what it says when i want to watch a stream http://img502.imageshack.us/img502/2070/bildschirmphoto5it3.jpg | 06:25 |

| ForgeAus | * XPressLinux is based on Kubuntu and uses the KDE desktop. | 07:18 |
| ForgeAus | * WINE is pre-installed, so you can run many Windows applications. | 07:18 |

| ForgeAus | * Firefox is the default web browser, for maximum compatibility. | 07:18 |

| whiz2_ | but I remembered that windows reported Crystal sond fusion, and crystal sound audio, and it can emulate SB pro | 07:26 |
| whiz2_ | sound* | 07:26 |
| crimsun | whiz2_: then I need either /full/ dmesg output or lspnp output | 07:26 |
| whiz2_ | huh? | 07:26 |
| rob__ | will take a look | 07:26 |
| Jucato | crimsun: or kinfocenter? :) | 07:26 |
| whiz2_ | Kubuntu sees no sound hardware whatsoever | 07:27 |
| whiz2_ | windows isn't installed as a 2nd OS | 07:27 |
| crimsun | whiz2_: it likely wouldn't, as you have isa sound hardware, which needs to be loaded manually. | 07:27 |
| Jucato | crimsun: I learned a new command from one of the aggregated blogs in Planet Ubuntu. lshw :) | 07:27 |
| whiz2_ | I'm not worried about the sound. I'm worried about getting back into my desktop | 07:27 |
| crimsun | the fun part of course is figuring out whether it's snd-cs4231, snd-cs4232 or snd-cs4236 | 07:28 |

| fudgey | awesome | 08:08 |
| SlackRat | what root mode? | 08:08 |
| fudgey | thanks | 08:08 |
| SlackRat | np | 08:08 |

| Jucato | rob__: just plain C++? | 08:33 |
| rob__ | yes | 08:33 |
| Jucato | rob__: you already installed it with build-essential. GCC is the compiler. g++ is the command to compile C++ source code | 08:34 |
| rob__ | its for school so as long as i can compile c++ console it should work | 08:34 |
| rob__ | i have g++ | 08:34 |
| Jucato | rob__: configure, make and make install are just needed for compiling "big" apps | 08:34 |
| rob__ | i have both gcc and g++ already | 08:34 |
| Jucato | rob__: hm... does your school use Linux for these C++ things? | 08:35 |
| SlackRat | then you can compile | 08:35 |
| rob__ | we use solaris so yes | 08:35 |
| whiz2_ | anone know where I can find the boot script? | 08:35 |
| SlackRat | c and c++ | 08:35 |

| rob__ | we use solaris, and our instrucor made a batch file to run for compiling so i don't know what goes on behind the scenes of that file | 08:37 |
| Jucato | rob__: anyway, the command to compile something using g++ normally is "g++ source_code.cpp -o executable_filename" where source_code.cpp is your C++ source code, and executable_filename is the name you want to give to the executable file that is produced | 08:37 |
| crystufer2000 | http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6522/ | 08:37 |

| n4cht | linux, when deciding which audio device to use, makes no assumptions. it simply uses the first one available, which is always the onboard if it's not disabled. | 10:41 |

| tuco | Donald the message I get is: There was an error commiting changes. Possibly there was a problem downloading some packages or the commit would break packages | 02:06 |
| Jucato | BluesKaj: it's a repository. there's no rule on what should be. if the maintainers want to add a kde-356-test-failed directory, so be it. not everything there is supposed to be used anyway :) | 02:07 |
| mart81 | donald: don't tell cartmen... | 02:07 |

| donald | ok guys another question. i downloaded FrostWire from frostwire.com in the form of a .deb file for Ubuntu, how do i use this file? | 02:09 |
| ForgeAus | use dpkg to install it probably | 02:09 |
| waylandbill | donald: dpkg .. -i in this case. | 02:09 |
| ForgeAus | or rightclick it in konqueror and find the installer in the submenu | 02:10 |

| johny_ | I've been using "apt-cache" search so far, ... | 02:56 |
| Jucato | gives write access | 02:56 |
| wbadger | blue|palm, it gives you writing permission to <file> provided you are the owner of the file or root | 02:56 |

| Jucato | johny_: that works too. although policy has a different usage | 02:59 |
| johny_ | yeah I know | 03:00 |
| wbadger | blue|palm, well you see what you did with sudo is actually give the user "root" permissions to write | 03:00 |
| johny_ | better time has just began... | 03:00 |
| Jucato | blue|palm: you only need to use sudo with chmod if your user doesn't have permissions to modify the file's permissions | 03:00 |

| wbadger | blue|palm, so what you need to do is perhaps sudo chmod a+w <file> | 03:01 |

| abattoir | ashields-WMF: yes | 03:16 |
| abattoir | ashields-WMF: after POST, you'd be asked to choose which OS to boot into | 03:16 |
| abattoir | ashields-WMF: choose the linux entry instead of windows | 03:16 |

| the-erm | I'm not worried about it so no help needed. | 04:29 |
| Chousuke | aren't they supposed to work pretty well | 04:29 |
| the-erm | Works good for me, not with Beryl | 04:30 |
| Chousuke | though beryl is new and still a bit unstable I suppose. | 04:30 |

| the-erm | I'll wait a couple of months, and try it again. I'd rather not waste a bunch of cpu on rendering a nice desktop this one is good enough. | 04:31 |
| soulrider | BluesKaj: io use beryl, but i agree | 04:31 |
| Jucato | BluesKaj: technically it does. | 04:31 |
| Chousuke | BluesKaj: actually, it does. | 04:31 |
| Chousuke | it doesn't use the CPU for rendering :) | 04:31 |

| BluesKaj | everyone has their opinion ,,, that was mine :) | 04:32 |
| Jucato | and "enhance computing experience" is a subjective term... your experiences may vary | 04:32 |
| soulrider | i dont think it really adds anything except for a few times | 04:32 |
| waylandbill | there are things that are useful. The window scaling is nice. | 04:32 |
| Chousuke | well it offloads rendering from the cpu to the gpu. | 04:32 |
| Chousuke | or should | 04:32 |
| Chousuke | should make things faster. | 04:32 |
| Jucato | Compositing window managers using AIGLX/XGL also technically have improved window drawing and handling | 04:32 |
| soulrider | i think what kinda useful about beryl is the expose kind of thing it has and the new alt tab | 04:32 |
| BluesKaj | yup , I suppose i'd use beryl if my graphics card wasn't so rudimentary or ATI :) | 04:33 |
| Chousuke | however, it's still alpha so I suppose the benefits aren't very visible yet. | 04:33 |

| ScarFreewill | this is my opinion, beryl is merely eye candy, it does not make your pc better but it atrackes pll to linux | 04:34 |
| Jucato | Chousuke: that would largely depend on the openness of graphic drivers in the future | 04:34 |
| Jucato | (of course opinions don't always reflect reality...) | 04:34 |
| Chousuke | ScarFreewill: but the point is that it's *not* merely eye candy | 04:34 |
| soulrider | ScarFreewill: the alt tab is quite useful and so is window scaling | 04:34 |
| Chousuke | people just see the eye candy, but it's the underlying technology that matters more. | 04:34 |
| Chousuke | and most people don't have a clue about that :P | 04:35 |
| BluesKaj | I tried a RC Vista last fall for a few days ..nice graphics etc .. too bad my dvdrom wouldn't work and my network ...was lucky it even saw the router i guess | 04:35 |

| slow-motion | hallo | 05:18 |
| ForgeAus | hmmm so its just a konqueror-integrated app in kubuntu desktop? | 05:18 |
| ForgeAus | adept didn't like me wanting to remove ark... | 05:19 |
| waylandbill | it doesn't even suggest ark | 05:19 |
| waylandbill | konqueror that is | 05:19 |
| Jucato | ForgeAus: you're talking about kubuntu-desktop metapackage | 05:19 |
| ForgeAus | I wouldn't expect it to suggest | 05:19 |
| ForgeAus | jucato yes the kubuntu-desktop metapackage its just an app that integrates into konqueror thats in the metapackage? | 05:20 |
| Jucato | ForgeAus: some KDE Apps like Ark, Kate, Kaffeine, have KParts. basically, these are embeddable parts of the apps that you can use in other apps, like Konqueror | 05:20 |
| Jucato | this is why it "looks like" Konqueror is integrated with Ark and vice versa | 05:20 |
| ForgeAus | kinda like ole? | 05:20 |
| waylandbill | kinda | 05:20 |
| Jucato | ForgeAus: kubuntu-desktop has nothing to do with KDE | 05:20 |

| === pawel [n=pawel@auo154.neoplus.adsl.tpnet.pl] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| ForgeAus | yeah I know kubuntu desktop has nothing to do with kde (although kde is a part of the package - or at least kubuntu's built-in kde) | 05:22 |
| Jucato | ForgeAus: kubuntu-desktop is a metapackage (a package that depends on/points to/installs other "real" packages) that installs the necessary packages that make up a default *Kubuntu* (not KDE) system | 05:22 |
| Jucato | it just so happens that Kubuntu wants Ark to be installed by default, as the default archive program for Kubuntu | 05:22 |
| joyrider | hmm, having a little trouble installing TeamSpeak manually. I can't run the script which installs the app, I've already changed the install path to /usr/bin/ ? | 05:22 |
| Jucato | so the kubuntu-desktop metapackage depends on Ark. trying to remove Ark will remove kubuntu-desktop *only*. | 05:23 |

| DonMCN | i'm completely new to kubuntu, as you can tell, but i can work it if i receive instructions | 06:30 |
| Dr_willis | tuco, ive never used 2 sound cardss however.. so there maybe some easy way to 'switch' alsa to default to the other. | 06:30 |
| Dr_willis | assuming that card is getting seen/configured right. | 06:30 |
| waylandbill | DonMCN: QtPartEd will do that for you. | 06:30 |
| tuco | Well I have the onboard sound functioning and coming out of the inbuilt laptop speakers, I want the sound to come out from the 2.1 system that I have and by using the pcmia audigy 2 zs card :-) | 06:31 |
| cpk1 | i think easiest way would be to do sudo mkfs -t ext3 /dev/hdb1 right Dr_willis? | 06:31 |
| DonMCN | waylandbill: where do you find QtPartEd | 06:31 |
| Dr_willis | tuco, your card is a ------> PCMCIA Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS Notebook | 06:31 |

| ubotu | Jared555: The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD. | 11:06 |
