frojndhow similar is xubuntu to kubuntu01:01
maxamillionfrojnd: not at all01:01
frojndfor example: kubuntu can get xvid codecs: sudo apt-get install libxine-extracodecs01:02
frojndhow can xubuntu get xvid codecs?01:02
=== malnilion [n=malnilio@129.244.131.96] has joined #xubuntu
maxamillionfrojnd: oh ... yeah, its exactly the same like that ... kubuntu and xubuntu both come from the same ubuntu-base package and share the same repositories for package installation01:03
maxamillionfrojnd: but the user interface is rather different01:03
frojndfor interface I can imagine.. cose they advice me to use xubuntu for not so good comps...01:04
frojndI have one comp 700mhz and 256ram01:04
frojndwill it work with xubuntu FAST?01:05
maxamillionfrojnd: i run xubuntu on an athlon64 x2 4600+, 2gb ddr2 ram, and a nvidia 7900gtx just because i like it better01:05
frojndah01:05
maxamillionbrb01:05

frojndtyt01:05
Stu_2frojnd -- I have a machine that is 800mhz at 256MB ram and it works nicely.01:06
frojndStu_2 good01:06
frojndwhat about with setting dsl connection01:06
malnilionAnybody want to try an interesting bash command?01:07
malnilionYou would have to restart your computer if you used it.01:07
Stu_2frojnd -- assuming your ISP is handing you an IP automatically, xubuntu should get you online if it sees your NIC01:09
frojndNIC ?01:09
maxamillionmalnilion: please do not post malicious or otherwise system compromising code in the channels01:09
maxamillionfrojnd: network interface card01:09
frojndah..01:09
frojndbut.. what if not?01:09
malnilionmaxamillion, yeah01:10
maxamillionfrojnd: most times it will ... otherwise it might just take a little bit of configuration01:10
maxamillionfrojnd: was kubuntu able to get an internet connection?01:10
malnilionmaxamillion, I just found it shocking that with one simple command I could fork bomb my computer...01:10
frojndmaxamillion: I connect via router01:11
frojndthis comp that will have xubuntu will have no router..01:11
frojndso I don't know how this works in kubuntu01:11
maxamillionmalnilion: oh .. you been hanging out on wikipedia as of late? ... we had a user come in and post the perl code for a fork bomb they found on wikipedia ... it was not good :(01:11
malnilionYeah, I saw that one01:12
maxamillionfrojnd: oh, yeah ... should still be essentially the same because dsl does dhcp ip leases01:12
frojndk01:12
frojndanyway I am going to install xubuntu on my comp01:13
malnilionmaxamillion, I wanted to know if there was an easy way to limit the number of processes in Ubuntu...01:13
maxamillionmalnilion: oooo ... limit the number of processes, not sure ... maybe the number of processes of a certain user .... but even that i wouldn't know how to do01:14

graziemaxamillion: good stuff01:17
maxamilliongrazie: i actually haven't written any of the docs because i also admin the irc chans, the main website, and work on other projects so i didn't have time but when it came through the -devel mailing lists i volunteered to admin :)01:18
graziemaxamillion: could put that transparency stuff on there01:18
maxamilliongrazie: oooo, good idea01:19
maxamilliongrazie: it should be open to edit, if not let me know01:19
graziemaxamillion: oh...ok01:19
maxamillionno wait ... that's right, the guy who owns the server asked that we don't open it up01:20

graziemaxamillion: it was a free host and then they made it not free....01:25

SharnYou could maybe build it that way?01:35
SharnI don't know for sure... No experience there. :P01:36
maxamillionsyamajala: yeah .... i use vim-gtk myself ... its lighter and i am just used to vi01:36
syamajalai use emacs for slime01:37
SharnDoes that like actually look like a text editor?01:37
maxamillionSharn: what?01:37
SharnI can't use command line editors. :P01:37
syamajalado a bunch of lisp stuff...01:37
Sharn"vim-gtk"01:37
maxamillionSharn: http://www.swooh.com/~adam/berylGears.png <--- the monitor on the right has vim-gtk running (vim-gtk is just the install package, the binary executable is called gvim)01:38

Jester45hello01:41
Sharn-hides-01:41
maxamillionSharn: if you won't be using shortcuts, i recommend something like scite or geany01:41
Jester45Sharn: what are you doing01:41
atarinoxhey what're those desktop graphics called which show different performance stats?01:41
syamajalamaxamillion: i like it01:42
SharnMeh. I don't code much anyway. Just a little php that Bluefish will do. (Or Dreamweaver, in Windows)01:42
maxamillionsyamajala: fair enough ... i had to learn some basic stuff in high school in lisp but ever since then i have been coding in other stuff .... so far i really like java and python, but i will code C when i have to01:42
maxamillionSharn: cool cool01:42
maxamillionatarinox: huh?01:43
syamajalaoh01:43
syamajalathey have java it my school01:43
syamajalain*01:43
syamajalabut thats it01:43
syamajalai'm doing an independent study of lisp01:43
syamajalafor .5 credit01:43
maxamillionsyamajala: we learned java for the class in high school but we learned lisp as part of some national testing thing01:43
Jester45maxamillion: maybe atarinox means somthing like the system load moniter?01:43
maxamillionJester45: oooo01:43
maxamillionJester45: or conky01:43
atarinoxmaxamillion: i've seen it in desktop screenshots...it shows maybe available ram, psu usage, cpu temp....all in some text which is permanently on your desktop01:44
SharnOr a desklets thing?01:44

atarinoxSharn: yeah maybe desklet01:44
SharnI think it's probably gDesklets or aDesklets he's talkign about.01:44
DrX0DrX0Hello, is there a way to see what apt-get packages are available?01:44
atarinoxis that in any repository?01:44
=== rexbinary [n=rexbinar@unaffiliated/rexbinary] has joined #xubuntu
Sharnatarinox: What are your specs? If you're computer is fast, gDesklets is a lot easier to use in my opinion.01:45
Jester45DrX0DrX0: do you mean the packages you downloaded?01:45
maxamillionatarinox: i think you mean conky ... its in the respoistories and http://conky.sourceforge.net will help you with configuration01:45
SharnAnd I think both are in the repos.01:45
syamajalahmm01:45
syamajalamy system can't handle extreme transparency01:45
DrX0DrX0Jester45, I want to see which one's are available for download01:45
syamajalaits messy.01:45
SharnDrX0DrX0: Just open Synaptic?01:45
Jester45DrX0DrX0: all of the should be01:45
DrX0DrX0Jester45, I was told to apt-get a package that is no longer there01:45
maxamillionsyamajala: i honestly monitor my system with a terminal window open running htop01:46
Jester45DrX0DrX0: IF YOU SEE THEM YOU CAN DOWNLOAD THEM01:46
DrX0DrX0Sharn, I tried Synaptic but it doesn't show the package01:46
maxamillion!caps | Jester4501:46
ubotuJester45: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.01:46
DrX0DrX0Jester, what do you mean?01:46
Jester45sorry i has caps on01:46
maxamillionDrX0DrX0: if you can see a package in synaptic then it can be installed01:46
syamajalamaxamillion: i used to use adesklets01:46
SharnDrX0DrX0: Just open synaptic and search for the same thing.01:46
DrX0DrX0Sharn, I don't think what I want is available in Synaptic.01:46
Jester45DrX0DrX0: what was the package you were told to tdownload01:47
SharnThen it's not in the repos.01:47
DrX0DrX0Jester45, xen-hypervisor-3.0-i38601:47
SharnSynaptic shows everything available to download in the repos you have in your repos list.01:47
maxamillionsyamajala: yeah, aDesklets are my favorite of the desklet world ... so light weight01:47
Jester45DrX0DrX0: synaptic uses apt-get...so if one has the other has...unless its a old version01:47
Jester45Sharn: it doesnt know about older packages01:48
syamajalathey also look nice01:48
syamajalabut they are a pain to get running sometimes01:48
DrX0DrX0I searched for Xen and it only seems to show management tools.01:49
syamajalahmm01:49
maxamillionsyamajala: this is true01:49
syamajalaemacs comes with some gui but its ugly.01:49
SharnMine won't run now. :P I had a couple desklets running, but they won't now for whatever reason. Probably deleted them somehow.01:50
maxamillionsyamajala: :(01:50
atarinoxi'm not sure these g or a desklets are what i was looking for...they seem to be more like widgets01:50
atarinoxill see if i can find a screen of what im talking about01:50
Jester45DrX0DrX0: try running: sudo apt-get -t 3.0* install xen-hypervisor01:50
SharnOoooh. They are pretty much widgets.01:51
DrX0DrX0and, don't I need to be concerned that it says -i386 if I have a 64-bit processor, wouldn't that give me the wrong Xenified (32-bit) kernel?>01:51
maxamillionatarinox: did you try conky like i told you?01:51
Jester45thats should be somthing like what you want i never tried that option01:51
syamajaladoh01:51
atarinoxmaxamillion: yeah i looked at that...seemed more like it, but not exactly01:51
syamajalai didn't install the right thing01:51
Jester45maxamillion: he might be looking for DSL's thing01:51
maxamillionatarinox: hhhmmmm ... maybe gkrellm201:51
maxamillionJester45: DSL runs the mother project to conky and conky is themeable the same ... kinda like fluxbox to blackbox01:52
DrX0DrX0Jester45, "couldn't find package xen-hypervisor"01:52
syamajalai'm disappointed that wireless doesn't work01:53
Jester45DrX0DrX0: try the same thing but the the 3.0whatever at the end01:53
atarinoxhttp://shots.osdir.com/slideshows/slideshow.php?release=770&slide=301:53
atarinoxis that conky in the upper right?01:53
SharnOoooh.01:54
DrX0DrX0Jester45, including the -t?01:54
SharnThat's a default for the WM, I think. That's DSL, right?01:54
syamajalaatarinox: it is01:54
maxamillionatarinox: its technically not conky, but its the project that conky is based off of and you can make conky look like it01:55
maxamillioni gotta go ... i am getting off work01:55
Jester45DrX0DrX0: sudo apt-get -t 3.0* install xen-hypervisor-3.0-i38601:55
atarinoxoh ok...thanks01:55
maxamillionlaters all01:55
syamajalaoh01:55
syamajalai thought it was conky...01:55
DrX0DrX0Jester45, same error01:56
DrX0DrX0that's why i was asking if there's a way too see what's available so i'll know the package name01:56
Jester45DrX0DrX0: i searched for it wihtmy apt and its there... do you have all the repos enabled?01:57
Jester45xen-hypervisor-3.0-i386 is the exact name01:57
DrX0DrX0Jester45, I was told to enable the universe in .etc/apt/sources.list (I uncommented them but took no further action)01:58
DrX0DrX0Jester45, it does show (universe) packages in Synaptic01:58
Jester45DrX0DrX0: you have to run sudo apt-get update01:58
Jester45thats redownloads the list of packages01:59
Jester45with new versions and the new repo01:59
DrX0DrX0Jester45, oh, yeah, I did that01:59
Jester45also01:59
Jester45try sudo apt-get upgrade01:59
DrX0DrX0Jester45, and I also ran Synaptic Reload01:59
DrX0DrX0Did that too01:59
Jester45k01:59
DrX0DrX0do i need to tell it to install the updates, etc?02:00
SharnAnyone think Xubuntu will run as fast as Zenwalk? Just wondering. :P02:00
Jester45DrX0DrX0: to get updates run sudo apt-get upgrade02:00
DrX0DrX0i did that and -update02:01
DrX0DrX0-upgrade says 002:01
Jester45DrX0DrX0: you must first do reload so that apt knows you got a new version to dl02:01
Jester45DrX0DrX0: what are you talking about... you have to run "sudo apt-get upgrade"02:02
Jester45without quotes02:03
DrX0DrX0Jester45, I did (1) reload in Synaptic (2) -upgrade shows 0 (3) -update (4B in 6s)02:03
DrX0DrX0Jester45, still don't see Xen in Synaptic02:04
Jester45DrX0DrX0: just forget the synaptic run "sudo apt-get update" then "sudo apt-get upgrade" without quotes and if nothing gets updaetd then your up-to-date02:04
DrX0DrX0Jester45, isn't -386 32-bit?02:04
DrX0DrX0Jester45, -upgrade shows all 0's, -update has the same list over & over02:05
Jester45DrX0DrX0: its the only one in the repos and yes it is02:05
Sharnx86_64 is 64 bit...02:05
Jester45DrX0DrX0: then you are up to date02:06
DrX0DrX0Jester45, I have 64-bit Ubuntu02:06
DrX0DrX0Jester45, perhaps it's not showing it because it won't work with 64-bit?02:06
Jester45DrX0DrX0: well i dont know if thats gonna work then it could be only for 32bit or just optimized for 32 bit02:06
Jester45DrX0DrX0: the update get a new list of packages that you *may* download and upgrade gets newer versions of the packages you have installed02:07
DrX0DrX0Jester45, I know it comes with a new kernel02:07
Jester45to get the package you told me you run02:07
Jester45sudo apt-get install xen-hypervisor-3.0-i38602:07
Jester45thats the only package that has xen,-hypervisor in the name osso there is ony 64bit version02:08
SharnYou might be able to just compile it too.02:08
Jester45the above packages may work for you im not sure i never mesed with that i stick to 32 bit02:08
DrX0DrX0Jester45, how would I go about finding out?02:08
Jester45DrX0DrX0: install it and try to run it02:08
Jester45if it runs then yea! if not then yu have to complie02:09
DrX0DrX0Jester45, it keeps telling me "Couldn't find package xen-hypervisor-3.0-i38602:09
SharnI would just compile it.02:09
Sharnhttp://www.xensource.com/download/index_3.0.4.html02:09
SharnActually, that might get a little complicated...02:10
DrX0DrX0Sharn, yeah, I've never had much luck compiling things02:11
DrX0DrX0I do have Fedora 64-bit and I see they've integrated Xen, but I kind of wanted to stick with Ubuntu02:11
SharnI don't think linux is ready for 64 bit, personally...02:13
SharnI can run 64 bit - I just decided to go 32 bit because I heard of all the problems. =\02:14
DrX0DrX0Sharn, well, I can certainly run 32-bit Ubuntu, but I have a beefy 64-bit server02:14
DrX0DrX0Sharn, I don't think anything is ready for 64-bit02:15
SharnAhh. Does it go any faster or anything?02:15
DrX0DrX064-bit:  faster, +++++ more memory support (256GB)02:15
DrX0DrX032-bit maxes out at 4GB02:15
SharnJust less software support. =\02:15

SharnHey02:20
SharnGonna be hard to choose between Zenwalk and Xubuntu.02:22
cellofellowWhat's Zenwalks package management like?02:23
SharnIt's Slackware based... I'm not really sure.02:23
SharnI really like *buntu's package management, I have to admit...02:24
cellofellowDebian's apt package manager rocks. Slackware uses just binary tarballs I think.02:24
SharnMostly, I'll be getting a 433Mhz (Hopefully) laptop. Either one with 28Mb RAM or one with 32. I'll be getting 128 more, but I want to get the mst out f it I can.02:26
=== cellofellow has an experiment in his mind. Could he morph Debian Sarge net-install into Ubuntu, therebye not needing a CD?
cellofellowonly 28MB on a 400Mhz box?02:26
SharnI know, I don't get it either.02:26
Sharn=\02:26
cellofellowI have a Pentium 160Mhz with 32MB. That makes sense.02:27
cellofellow(not Xubuntu, Debian Net-install minimal.)02:27
Sharn6Gb disks too. Every other equivalent system I've seen comes with at least 64...02:27

cellofellow450Mhz with 96MB RAM is slow going. Luckily mine is 320MB.02:29
SharnRofl. Must a be really low end laptops... I don't know. One's an AMD, too.02:29
SharnThe 28Mb one is actually the AMD.02:29
cellofellowNot lappy's, desktop's circa 1999.02:29
cellofellowIntel PIII Katmai.02:29
SharnPIII's are 450Mhz?02:30
cellofellowthe both of em. One's a Compaq, the other a Micron. One is Windows 98 and is buggy and unstable. The Xubuntu.02:30
SharnI thought PII's got that high..02:30
cellofellowThey go as high 900Mhz, with the Coppermine-T core.02:30
cellofellowmine's a Katmai, so it's slow, old-school.02:30
SharnOh, ok, rofl. I don't have any idea what model eaither of these are. The AMD is a K5 or something.. The other one's manual is VERY vague.02:31
SharnBesides it's an "Ashton Digital" that cannot be found online no matter what you try. =\02:32

DrX0DrX0I don't get how to get windows back from that article.02:37
tictacaddictwell it is a new problem.  it gets stuck somewhere in the shutdown scripts02:38
SharnI've never had problems with that. At least with Linux. (WinME did that...)02:38
cellofellowDrX0DrX0: you add an entry for Windows in the file /boot/grub/menu.lst02:38
cellofellowSharn: same thing on my Debian server box that I usually don't shutdown. It's got an old 2.4 kernel though.02:39
SharnI'd love to try debian on a laptop, but it's too... hands on for me.02:40
SharnToo much to just get it working. :P02:40
cellofellowyou want hands on use Gentoo.02:40

tictacaddictthere might be an example in the comments of /boot/grub/menu.lst02:46
DrX0DrX0nope02:46
tictacaddictif not I am trying to put my entry on pastebin02:46

tictacaddicthttp://pastebin.com/88629302:47
tictacaddictthat is with windows as the first partition on the first drive02:47
SharnI found FC to be very big and slow.02:48
tictacaddictreally?  I heard FC is quite fast.  or did you mean 3?02:49
cellofellowI gave it about 12 hours.02:49
tictacaddict*that FC6 is fast02:49
SharnI have 5...02:50
=== Sharn is not a fan of KDE, either
tictacaddictI have never actually used it (except for FC3, but that was a while ago)02:51
SharnIs FC on KDE?02:51
SharnI only ran it in VMware...02:52
DrX0DrX0thanks, that worked, but how do I get the menu to show up instead of having to press ESC in a tiny 3-second window of time?>02:52
tictacaddictdelete or comment the line that says hidemenu02:52
tictacaddicter, hiddenmenu02:53
SharnHey, do I need to unmount a USB harddrive before unplugging it?02:53
tictacaddictand you can change "timeout 3" to something longer if you want as well02:53
SharnOr does it not really matter?02:54
tictacaddictSharn: I think it can cause problems if you don't.02:55
SharnAlright.02:55
tictacaddictnot sure how big but I would say it's better to unmount it02:55
SharnXubuntu makes it pretty easy anyhow02:56
tictacaddictmmhm02:56
tictacaddictI installed a bunch of *-dev packages with apt-get build-dep.  is there an easy way to remove all of those now that I built the program?02:58
SharnCan't you just "apt-get remove build-dep"?02:58
tictacaddictI don't think so because it's not a pacakge02:59
tictacaddictnope, tried it02:59
SharnOh, hmm. Got me then.03:00
cellofellowummmmm, look at logs and find out what was installed and remove it?03:00
tictacaddictgood enough for me.  which logs though?03:00
tictacaddictI just wondered if there was something like autoremove for that03:01
cellofellowdunno what logs.03:02
Jester45what did you install03:02
Jester45there is autoremove03:02
Jester45but its for packagges that are not depended on03:02
Jester45like you install package A but package A needs B & C03:03
tictacaddictI wanted the newest xfce4-notes-plugin so I downloaded the source from the website03:03
cellofellow-dev packages won't be depended on once the build is complete.03:03
Jester45so apt installs those and if you remove A03:03
Jester45then sudo atp-get autoremove will remobe B & C03:03
tictacaddictthen I said "sudo apt-get build-dep xfce4-notes-plugin"03:03
cellofellowoooh. I can't seem to find the Debian net-install floppy images. No links on Debian.org, though it talks about them.03:05
tictacaddictit installed a bunch of packages.  then "./configure && make && sudo checkingstall"03:05
tictacaddictI didn't use apt-get for the actual package though03:05
tictacaddict*checkinstall03:05
Jester45i tried them but it didnt work03:05
Jester45:(03:05
cellofellowwhere are they?03:11
Jester45tictacaddict: well what did you install03:12
DrX0DrX0so, I'm trying to install a package and it says ""Dependency is not satisfyable:  libsysfs1" I have libsysfs203:12
SharnGet libsysfs1, if it's available.03:13
Jester45DrX0DrX0: you install the 1 version but apt cant get it03:13
Jester45you need to install*03:13
DrX0DrX0use install* instead of install?03:14
cellofellownonono03:14

Jester45cant you just go back untill you reach the part htis installing the packages then copy/paste them?03:22
tictacaddictI closed that window, so I don't think so03:23
tictacaddictbut I found the packages in the log, so for now it's no longer an issue.  I'll probably c/p next time if I use build-dep03:24

tictacaddictit is like slocate but it's always up to date03:36
tictacaddicthttp://rlocate.sourceforge.net/03:36
cellofellowhow's it do that?03:36
tictacaddictit has a kernel module that watches for file creation/deletion etc03:37
cellofellowcool03:37
tictacaddictwhich by the way conflicts with SELinux and Default Linux Capabilities03:37
tictacaddictit IS cool03:37
tictacaddictI do not use SELinux and don't know what Default Linux Capabilities does03:37

cellofellowcommand-line file search utility is slocate.03:38

SharnOH04:08
SharnRofl... I see. xD04:08

hyper_chit's in seveas' repo... I think09:53
DarthLappyhttp://si.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ edgy universe multiverse would be the line you're looking for.09:53
DarthLappyYou only have universe, main and restricted for "edgy".09:53

hyper_chand add this repo to your list:  deb  http://mirror.ubuntulinux.nl edgy-seveas all09:55
DarthLappyI don't think you really need the gstreamer stuff if you're only using gxine.09:55
DarthLappyAnd the seveas repo probably isn't necessary, either.09:55
hyper_chDarthLappy: the rectricted guide did tell so at one time09:56
hyper_chDarthLappy: I use it and it works09:56
frojndok we are missing the point here09:56
=== DarthLappy is tempted to !worksforme
DarthLappyYes, we probably are.09:56
frojndDo I have or do I have not multiverse??09:56
DarthLappyfrojnd: You do, but not for the main edgy repo. You have it added for backports only.09:57
hyper_chDarthLappy: in the updated restricted guide format you still have to get gstreamer09:57
esc_on_anakinmay the multiverse be with you09:57
frojndDarthLappy: couldt u paste the repos I need for multiverse?09:57
frojndcouse or where do I have to weite "miltiverse"09:57
