[03:09] MrMuffin: Just getting it installed?! o_O [03:10] well, its installed, but wont boot to KDE [03:10] jeffalves: allright, but i have successfully used samba to share folders with a windows machine so i know its installe [03:10] the liveCD dumped me to a command prompt becuase the 'nv' driver doesnt support the 8800 series [03:10] so i used the command prompt to edit xorg.conf to use the 'vesa' driver, that got me to KDE and allowed me to install [03:10] surgy: Is it running? [03:11] surgy: Sorry, more precisely, is Samba running? [03:11] it installed fine, but when it goes to load kde/x-server or whatever, my monitor tells me no signal and just sits there [03:11] i can boot to recovery mode just fine [03:11] jeffalves: does it have a different process name other than "samba" ? [03:12] !fixxorge [03:12] Sorry, I don't know anything about fixxorge - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi [03:12] i used that to perform a full update, installed nvidia-glx which is *supposed* to support my card, but when booting using that driver ('nvidia') in xorg.conf, it freezes at a black screen with a cursor [03:12] so 'vesa' driver gives me no signal and 'nvidia' freezes the boot process [03:12] not sure where to go from here... [03:12] reconfigure xorg? [03:12] MrMuffin: Ah, that blows. Well, you could try burning an "Alternate CD" (not to be confused with the term 'another CD' - there are three flavors of Ubuntu (alternate, desktop, server)) [03:13] hmm, ill look into the alternate cd [03:13] MrMuffin: If you get the Server CD, you'll have to install everything from the command line (it's just an ncurses dialog box guided installation - relatively simple) [03:13] i could do that, but what would be the benefit [03:13] MrMuffin: Then you get to choose which you want, Kubuntu, Ubuntu, or Xubuntu.

You could try creating a custom kernel and hoping that the latest vanilla sources (or does Ubuntu patch the source kernel packages like other distributions do?) will work [03:15] surgy: There you go then. sudo /etc/init.d/samba start [03:15] i didnt want to have to patch the kernel, bleh [03:15] MrMuffin: I'm sorry, ignore the CD part, but it's still good to know. [03:16] im 100% new to linux but im trying to learn it [03:16] MrMuffin: But the kernel thing may be your only option if hardware support is an issue. [03:16] surgy, what do you mean reconfigure xserver, in what way? [03:16] MrMuffin: Wow, you've certainly made quite a bit of progress already then :) [03:16] MrMuffin, which version did you install?

[03:17] chavo, not sure, whatever the latest .deb was that apt-get snagged [03:17] MrMuffin: No, Ubuntu itself has an outdated kernel.

[03:18] jeffalves, yeah i think the update made the kernel 2.6.17-11 or something, from -10 [03:18] MrMuffin, afaik the nvidia drivers in 6.10 won't support that card [03:18] jeffalves: i never did but i used "smb:// [the persons ip] " to access samba shares on this machine before [03:18] MrMuffin, it has nothing to do with th kernel [03:18] surgy: That's because you were doing client side. [03:19] jeffalves: ahhh. ok then samba is in the repos i imagine? [03:19] chavo, i did some forum reading before i came here and i THOUGHT that getting the latest nvidia-glx (proprietary nvidia drivers) would work [03:19] cuase yeah, the opensource nv drivers that come with it do not work [03:19] MrMuffin: Linux already is at 2.6.21-rc3 [03:19] MrMuffin, are you on the machine now? [03:19] jeffalves, is that what's going to be included in the new version of k/ubuntu to be released in april? [03:19] chavo, i am on the machine, its dual boot with XP [03:19] MrMuffin: I'm not positive, but it better be at least 2.6.19. [03:19] my g/f is on my laptop [03:20] MrMuffin: Oh boy, then please explain to her that this is not the norm for Linux for us all :) [03:20] MrMuffin, you can try getting the latest driver from nvidia.com and building it yourself [03:21] MrMuffin: Which is exactly why you're better off just creating your own custom kernel -- it's a good learning experience, but may be way more than you want to learn in a matter of hours === n8k99 [n=nathan@dsl254-078-190.nyc1.dsl.speakeasy.net] has joined #kubuntu [03:21] MrMuffin: If you want to make a handy Debian package out of it, use checkinstall. [03:21] is there a good bittorrent client that can be accessed from the command line? i need one so i can control it through ssh === mjunx [n=matt@70.131.200.186] has joined #kubuntu [03:22] bittornado is python and has an ncurses interface [03:22] kgx: ctorrent is a bit old, but it works. rtorrent as well. [03:22] it monitors a directory for torrents and starts them automatically [03:22] never tried rtorrent [03:22] MrMuffin, is your install x86? [03:22] 64 [03:23] should i even try 32? [03:23] MrMuffin: For being new to Linux, you sure have learned a lot already :) Good to see non-n00bs picking up Kubuntu :) === pauljw [n=paul@pool82.dial1-clec.newalb.win.net] has joined #kubuntu [03:23] ta [03:23] MrMuffin, it's up to you but you will have a hard time getting some things to work [03:23] jeffalves, other technical experience has helped me along the way. i tried suse 10.2 but it struck em as rather bloated [03:24] such as flash [03:24] MrMuffin: Hehe, I'd argue Ubuntu is bloated but then I'd get flamed :P It's nice if you want something hassle-free though. === mjunx [n=matt@70.131.200.186] has joined #kubuntu [03:24] he said bloated [03:24] MrMuffin: Though I'm sure it's going to take a bit of convincing to get you to see that it isn't always this screwy :P [03:24] awsome thnx jeffalves [03:25] surgy: Everything works now? [03:25] jeffalves, oh no, its been great so far compared to vista === csills [n=csills@c-71-59-52-223.hsd1.ga.comcast.net] has joined #kubuntu [03:25] my 8800 gtx doesnt work at all with vista [03:25] the craptastic drivers nvidia put out BSOD on startup [03:26] and no its not a software or hardware issue, im not the only one. im part of an 8 page thread on the nvidia forums about it [03:26] it has something to do with m Xerox monitor === cj__ is now known as cj_ [03:26] MrMuffin: hahaha, "Your system will now BSOD. Would you like to accept or deny?" [03:26] i know right === badpenguin [n=badpengu@12-207-73-27.client.mchsi.com] has joined #kubuntu [03:27] its pretty crapped to spend 1500$ on a new rig only to have it not work [03:27] but yeah it took us 8 pages of posts to figure out that our only common piece of hardware was our monitors [03:27] Seriously. But I guess that's the price you pay for getting somewhat cutting edge hardware. [03:27] dunno what about this particular one makes the nvidia driver go blam [03:27] doesnt get more cutting edge than the 8800 gtx, but yeah i guess [03:28] MrMuffin: If I were you, I'd get a quick Gentoo installation on a similar setup (at least the same architecture) and create a Debian package out of the latest kernel. [03:28] although i would say theres some sort of reasonable expectation of it working as advertised [03:28] "vista certified" my ass [03:28] MrMuffin: Then port the package over to your Kubuntu machine and dpkg -i it. [03:29] managed to find a command line one: http://www.azureuswiki.com/index.php/ConsoleUI [03:29] sweet :D [03:29] kgx: giFT is quite nice as well [03:29] kgx: just apt-cache search torrent [03:29] so yeah, linux is working better for me thank vista [03:29] how hilarious is that [03:29] Good to hear :) [03:30] i did install vista on my gf's HP, it worked fine, although it really is irritating as hell, even after disabling UAC (accept or deny) [03:30] chavo sent me an interesting link [03:30] let me boot to kubuntu and try it [03:30] god willing, ill be back === drycroft [n=drycroft@ip24-251-164-190.ph.ph.cox.net] has joined #kubuntu [03:32] [03:32] jeffalves: like a charm....

I can move the cursor, but nothing happens. I tried waiting 5 hours. Nothing. I tried burning another CD, twice, and a DVD 3 times. I tried downloading them again, to no avail.

[09:11] nonuda_: yeah, it would be "root (hd0,1)" ,if the fat32 partition was the 2nd partition on the disk [09:11] deathnote depends on other partitions. will /home be seperate ? will /var be seperate ?

[09:14] deathnote: I mean I'm new so I want to learn everything I can and see your reasoning for wanting to do it that way, I just don't get it, and I also don't get what will change if root and home are on different physical drives [09:14] Joshooa that would work. but if i did that i'd split up the big drive. small 1g /boot as first primary and then extended / 9g and the rest /home [09:14] deathnote: Yeah pretty much [09:14] <_4strO> !dpkg [09:14] dpkg is the Debian package maintenance system, which together with apt forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit.

[11:58] posingaspopular: Yeah [11:58] Is there a way I can get GPart to boot off my USB and then put that in, and then boot up, and use it to format both drives into all the partitions I want? [11:58] yeah. it's weird. they call it "deleting" when you click and "move to trash" but what it does is makes two copies on the hd and they call that deleting.... heh [11:58] !grub [11:58] grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto [11:58] and THEN do my installs, without having to do the partitioning during Windows/Kubuntu install?

[11:59] Lynoure: I think so, I read something about it, but not how to or anything, but I believe there is [11:59] Joshooa: but it does fit on a business card cdrom, so that's quite tiny too [11:59] Lynoure: Although I can't use my hard drive to get any files so I don't know what I'll do about that [11:59] Joshooa nope. the gui installer insists on formating the / or it wont install === Schlumpf [n=schumpf@dslb-084-057-136-097.pools.arcor-ip.net] has joined #kubuntu [12:00] sick i know, but imo the whole gui installer is sick. [12:00] intelikey: You don't have to format [12:00] on the live CD ? [12:00] yeah you have to format / [12:01] intelikey: Someone on a forum was trying to do an install and didn't want to format, he didn't [12:01] intelikey: Although, I am both new and not positive I know what he's talking about, so I'll just believe you [12:01] unless they changed it between dapper and edgy you do. [12:01] intelikey: He was trying to dual install 5.1 and 6.1 [12:01] intelikey: I remember that much [12:01] intelikey: And he asked, "If I choose format drive, will it erase everything?" [12:02] 5.10 and 6.10 ? [12:02] intelikey: Uh... yeah [12:02] the numbers are year.month [12:02] intelikey: ok [12:02] so 6.06 is the same as 6.6 but 6.10 != 6.1 [12:03] see the differance ? === X2B [n=1@p548E6152.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #kubuntu [12:03] I see, but now I'm not sure what versions he was talking about [12:04] I know it was 5.# and 6.# === JohnFlux_ [n=JohnFlux@cpc3-brig10-0-0-cust96.brig.cable.ntl.com] has joined #kubuntu [12:04] anyway. if you use the liveCD and don't let it format / on the 6.6 live CD it won't work. the 6.10 may have changed. [12:05] liveCD installer came out in 6.6 so before that it's all cli installer well ncurses text mode. [12:05] like the "laternate install cd" [12:05] Yeah, I couldn't understand why he didn't want to, because from what I understood, it would make them both use the same root and home files, I think [12:05] Again though, too new to be sure === Trevi [n=Trevi@adsl-5-79.37-151.net24.it] has joined #kubuntu [12:06] Well I really should be in bed, I have an interview in 8 h ours [12:06] could be what he thought he wanted but i can assure you that installing two versions on one root will cause lots of problems. === carol [n=carol@20132217195.user.veloxzone.com.br] has joined #kubuntu [12:07] whoa [12:07] wait [12:07] I thought it would too [12:07] So [12:07] i was closing windows getting ready to go to bed, and I have GParted open [12:08] many files overwriten and some having dependancies that nothing ever uses anymore.... configs that are not over writen are dubbled.... [12:08] and it says... /dev/hda2 is ext3, blah blah blah, Size 7.48GB, Used 4.47GB, Unused 3.93GB, how in the world [12:08] and that free space would match up to the dvd I deleted [12:08] roughly [12:09] that's what i was trying to tell you. closing the gui will probably release the space. and restarting it would then have all kinds of free room [12:10] Well, I'll get to it tomorrow [12:10] After I get everything copied over [12:10] but rming anything in trash while it was down was a precaution i was adding. and hoping that my guess was right on konq reporting incorrectly. [12:10] cause i don't want to risk breaking my wireless connection, just so I can fix it to copy a few more things to reformat [12:11] I just don't get how it got so full === unholyskorn [n=unholysk@c-71-234-80-189.hsd1.ct.comcast.net] has joined #kubuntu [12:11] ok. did you close konqueror and in the konsole do df -h again that might be all it needs... === dheerajsp [n=dheerajs@59.92.223.114] has joined #kubuntu === intelikey doubts that one.

[12:15] how do i open or install an Rpm format program? [12:15] whoops [12:15] I meant 17 [12:15] 2.6.17-10-generic 2.6.17-11-generic [12:15] That's what I got [12:15] on dapper 2.6.15-28 [12:15] I thought 11 was beta though [12:15] right? [12:15] beta no. [12:16] I thought odd numbered ones were beta and u nstable [12:16] no second digit only. [12:16] no. the 11 is the package release number. [12:16] kernel versioning. second digit odd unstable testing even stable production. [12:16] um hello? [12:17] oem: alien, but you should try to find a deb first [12:17] all other number irrelivent to that fact. [12:17] deb? [12:17] debian package [12:17] oem what's the package name ? [12:18] hmm ok can i ask what progrma has the rpm extension? === stdin [n=tez@unaffiliated/binary2k2] has joined #kubuntu [12:18] and preferably an ubuntu deb package with priority to any other deb [12:18] !rpm [12:18] RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu does not use RPM, but !APT, and RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous) [12:18] programs don't have an rpm extension, hopefuly [12:18] So, should I be running 2.6.17-11 instead? And how can I tell if i have the most up to date one? [12:19] I booted up under 11 once, but then all my settings were gone and I thought it was beta so I went back to 10 [12:19] Joshooa: uname -a will tell you kernel info [12:19] uname -a [12:19] dammit [12:19] freaking window on top keeps confusing me [12:19] uname -r [12:19] Both work. [12:20] -a seems to have more info [12:20] not really useful to my newbie eyes persay, but more [12:20] a is for all [12:20] Joshooa: installing "linux-generic" will make you have the newest one when ubuntu releases the newest one, /if/ that's what you want to do. [12:20] heh [12:21] Joshooa to always have the newest release for your installation enable security and updates repos and run sudo apt-get update ;sudo apt-get dist-upgrade that will by default always install the newest kernel for your system.
