| Kasplatt | Especially want the icons to look like the icons... | 07:37 |
| === albert_ [n=albert@e182078238.adsl.alicedsl.de] has joined #xubuntu | ||
| maxamillion | Kasplatt: well .. that's KDE, not xfce but if you just want a button icon set and a theme check out www.xfce-look.org | 07:38 |
| === bur[n] er looks | ||
| albert_ | aaah, great, it worked | 07:38 |
| Kasplatt | k | 07:39 |
| albert_ | bur[n] er, thx for help too | 07:39 |
| cellofellow | I have that background | 07:39 |
| === bur[n] er remembers ~/.cache from now on | ||
| Kasplatt | so gentoo uses KDE ? | 07:39 |
| bur[n] er | cellofellow, everyone does ;) | 07:39 |
| cellofellow | it uses whatever you want | 07:39 |
| cellofellow | like debian. | 07:39 |
| cellofellow | hehe | 07:39 |
| maxamillion | ;) | 07:39 |
| bur[n] er | KDE can run on gentoo... KDE can run on ubuntu... but why woul you want to? ;) | 07:40 |
| maxamillion | amen!!! | 07:40 |
| cellofellow | KDE on ubuntu has its own name: Kubuntu. | 07:40 |
| cellofellow | I suppose Kasplatt thought all distros were like that. | 07:40 |
| albert_ | now i can get some tabaco | 07:40 |
| bur[n] er | yeah, but i hate when people think kubuntu and xubuntu and ubuntu are totally different distros | 07:40 |
| Kasplatt | cellofellow, I know | 07:40 |
| maxamillion | bur[n] er: they are | 07:41 |
| Kasplatt | lol :D | 07:41 |
| Kasplatt | ownt :P | 07:41 |
| maxamillion | bur[n] er: kubuntu and xubuntu are both derived distros based off ubuntu, the fact that they share repositories with ubuntu doesn't make them the same thing | 07:42 |
| bur[n] er | maxamillion, but you don't have to "uninstall" xubuntu to run ubuntu | 07:42 |
| cellofellow | they are sort of strange to be different distros if you can have all three at once without multi-booting. | 07:42 |
| bur[n] er | they're one large distro with 3 major meta-packages | 07:42 |
| bur[n] er | er... 5... flux and edubuntu are big players too :) | 07:43 |
| cellofellow | 4 actually, we always forget edubuntu | 07:43 |
| maxamillion | bur[n] er: there is no fluxbuntu meta package in the repositories | 07:43 |
| bur[n] er | no? | 07:43 |
| maxamillion | bur[n] er: nope | 07:43 |
| cellofellow | it's an independant thing. | 07:43 |
| Kasplatt | gentoo looks nicest | 07:43 |
| bur[n] er | oh... ok 4 :) | 07:43 |
| cellofellow | I think they even have their own repos, mirrors really. | 07:43 |
| bur[n] er | looks can be the same on every distro if you'd like | 07:44 |
| cellofellow | Kasplatt: Gentoo is all about hand configuration. So, someone worked to get it to look nice. | 07:44 |
| bur[n] er | important things are apt > emerge in terms of ubuntu and gentoo | 07:44 |
| maxamillion | bur[n] er: the project lead decided not to have a meta package in the repos because their base install is so much different from any other ubuntu derivative that it would have restricted what they do with their official iso image | 07:44 |
| Kasplatt | the one I sent a link to an image to looked nice | 07:44 |
| cellofellow | so, they make a fluxbuntu-base | 07:44 |
| cellofellow | sides, even if there was a fluxbuntu meta-package, it'd be in Universe not Main. | 07:45 |
| === bur[n] er used to love flux on a celeron 400 | ||
| maxamillion | Kasplatt: "looks" are worthless in the linux world, you can make any 1 distro "look" like any other, distros are separated by main focus of project, package management, source based or binary, stability, security, etc. | 07:45 |
| cellofellow | Ubuntu takes looks seriously, as do Novell SLED and Linspire. | 07:45 |
| cellofellow | And most of what I've seen in the dev mailing lists are artwork-related. | 07:46 |
| bur[n] er | Kasplatt, xfce-look.org gnome-look.org kde-look.org art.ubuntu.com | 07:46 |
| Kasplatt | yeah. | 07:46 |
| maxamillion | cellofellow: looks are important because they are often directly related with functionality and ease of use but we just don't have the staff for something like that | 07:47 |
| Kasplatt | I've only used Linux for about a month. | 07:47 |
| maxamillion | cellofellow: but with any amount of configuration one distro can look like another | 07:47 |
| cellofellow | i've had a desktop installed for almost a year now. | 07:47 |
| maxamillion | Kasplatt: then you don't want to touch gentoo, you compile the entire system from source code | 07:47 |
| cellofellow | maxamillion: yes I understand. | 07:47 |
| === maxamillion has been on linux for a little over 7 years now | ||
| Kasplatt | bleh.. | 07:47 |
| maxamillion | cellofellow: rgr :) | 07:47 |
| Kasplatt | I'm gonna stick with xUbuntu :) | 07:48 |
| TheSheep_ | maxamillion: what's in a distro? the default config is one of the major features of a distro | 07:48 |
| Kasplatt | I really hate Windows now :P | 07:48 |
| maxamillion | TheSheep_: i left "etc" open for translation ;) | 07:48 |
| === bur[n] er just installed windows in virtualbox... i kinda liked XP | ||
| cellofellow | most distros go along these lines: what package manager to use, and how to set it up, and what it looks like. | 07:48 |
| maxamillion | bur[n] er: oooo, how do you like virtualbox? | 07:48 |
| maxamillion | cellofellow: true | 07:49 |
| TheSheep_ | windows wasn't that bad, espeically 2k, if there was a skilled admin to manage it | 07:49 |
| bur[n] er | vpn client from within the xp home host isn't working, and I can't get to my samba shares on the host os, but other than that, it's slick and easy | 07:49 |
| bur[n] er | the USB was a bit of an issue, but I fixed it with the help of #vbox and i added info to the ubuntu wiki :) | 07:49 |
| cellofellow | I have two computer that NEED (well, sort of) windows, and they have 98/ME, I am upgrading to 2K ASAP. | 07:49 |
| maxamillion | TheSheep_: i enjoyed my time while i dual booted win2kpro and debian (back when openoffice was crippled compared to its current state and i needed office for school) | 07:49 |
| bur[n] er | cellofellow, xubuntu + virtualbox? | 07:50 |
| bur[n] er | :) | 07:50 |
| cellofellow | it needs to be able to access some hardware that I can't get to work on linux. | 07:50 |
| cellofellow | MIDI. | 07:50 |
| Kasplatt | How do I know if my AIGLX is working ? | 07:50 |
| cellofellow | really, that is all. Everything my mom does on Windows she can do in Linux, except her MIDI. | 07:50 |
| maxamillion | Kasplatt: does beryl run? | 07:50 |
| Kasplatt | yeah | 07:50 |
| maxamillion | Kasplatt: then it works | 07:51 |
| Kasplatt | okay, thanks. | 07:51 |
| maxamillion | Kasplatt: i don't think beryl will run without either aiglx or xgl setup and functioning | 07:51 |
| cellofellow | AIGLX is part of Xorg now, so if Beryl works without XGL, you got it. | 07:51 |
| cellofellow | it errors and dies. | 07:51 |
| Kasplatt | I installed AIGLX | 07:51 |
| maxamillion | cellofellow: ah ... didn't know aiglx was part of xorg now | 07:51 |
| cellofellow | or, at least I think it is. | 07:51 |
| cellofellow | !aiglx | 07:52 |
| Kasplatt | but does it make anything better ? except making my beryl work ? | 07:52 |
| maxamillion | Kasplatt: you might have installed drivers that support aiglx direct hardware but i do think cellofellow is right about it being included | 07:52 |
| ubotu | AIGLX (Accelerated Indirect GLX) is an open source project founded by the X.Org Foundation and the Fedora Core Linux community to allow accelerated indirect GLX rendering capabilities to X.org and DRI drivers. This allows remote X clients to get fully hardware accelerated rendering over the GLX protocol. Head to #ubuntu-effects for support. | 07:52 |
| cellofellow | Nvidia proprietary | 07:52 |
| Kasplatt | idk.. | 07:52 |
| maxamillion | Kasplatt: makes 3d functions run faster because it puts the overhead on your graphics card and not on software rendering | 07:52 |
| cellofellow | I think only the nvidia proprietary drivers support AIGLX very well. | 07:52 |
| maxamillion | cellofellow: yeah | 07:53 |
| Kasplatt | and it runs without having beryl running | 07:53 |
| Kasplatt | ? | 07:53 |
| cellofellow | Apparently XGL with a plain window manager can speed things up by offloading to the GPU instead of using CPU for X. | 07:53 |
| bur[n] er | xgl was ungodly slow for me back in the day before nvidia-beta drivers | 07:54 |
| cellofellow | Kasplatt: I think it's the Composite extension I always have to dissable on my card to get GL working. | 07:54 |
| bur[n] er | compositing breaks GL? that's why my wine warcraft3.exe doesn't work anymore :) | 07:54 |
| cellofellow | my Nvidia-legacy card will do 3D OpenGL, or 3D AIGLX. | 07:54 |
| cellofellow | both work at the same time on a normal Nvidia card. | 07:55 |
| Kasplatt | k | 07:55 |
| Kasplatt | wine warcraft 3 works for me.. but not very good for playing with my friends :P | 07:55 |
| cellofellow | don't you have to get a more recent version of Wine than is in the repos? | 07:56 |
| cellofellow | a third-party repo? | 07:56 |
| maxamillion | cellofellow: yeah, www.winehq.com has the info on their wiki | 07:56 |
| cellofellow | I don't ever really use it. | 07:57 |
| === maxamillion runs off to download virtualbox | ||
| Kasplatt | maxamillion, what is that ? | 08:03 |
| maxamillion | Kasplatt: its a virtual machine application | 08:03 |
| maxamillion | Kasplatt: http://www.virtualbox.org/ | 08:03 |
| Kasplatt | like VMware ? | 08:03 |
| bur[n] er | cellofellow, maxamillion, feisty has the latest :) | 08:04 |
| bur[n] er | like vmware, but it works in kernels > .19 unlike vmware | 08:04 |
| bur[n] er | aka feisty | 08:04 |
| maxamillion | Kasplatt: yes, but better :) | 08:04 |
| Kasplatt | aah, faster ? | 08:04 |
| === bur[n] er would argue the "better" | ||
| maxamillion | bur[n] er: its in the repos now? | 08:05 |
| maxamillion | Kasplatt: not sure about faster, its just nicer software | 08:05 |
| bur[n] er | maxamillion, it's not in the repos, but the edgy .deb on their site works in feisty | 08:05 |
| === bur[n] er would argue "nicer" | ||
| bur[n] er | it was more work to get USB going and I still don't have a bridged network | 08:05 |
| bur[n] er | vmware worked out of the box a bit better | 08:05 |
| maxamillion | bahhh!!!!! they don't have an AMD64 release | 08:05 |
| Kasplatt | maxamillion, speed is everything. | 08:06 |
| bur[n] er | for sure, only crazy folks use amd64 ;) | 08:06 |
| bur[n] er | virtualbox and vmware are about the same in terms of speed | 08:06 |
| maxamillion | bur[n] er: i just like the interface of virtualbox, just a pref | 08:06 |
| bur[n] er | i do too | 08:06 |
| bur[n] er | i don't like the multiple windows factor of VirtualBox though | 08:07 |
| maxamillion | well, i gotta go ... boss needs me to do stuff | 08:07 |

| maxamillion | bur[n] er: kqemu has a gui? | 09:06 |
| cellofellow | none I know of | 09:07 |
| cellofellow | I could make a shell script with zenity for a gui | 09:07 |
| maxamillion | cellofellow: would be a cool open source project ... i want in if you plan to do that :) | 09:08 |
| cellofellow | Well, Zenity is actually just a user-friendly way of getting input for a shell script. I could probably make it in some spare time on my vacation. | 09:08 |
| maxamillion | cellofellow: or even to just qemu since that is more widely used because its open source | 09:09 |
| cellofellow | kqemu is too, now. | 09:09 |
| maxamillion | cellofellow: oh, didn't know that | 09:09 |
| cellofellow | and there's kvm | 09:09 |
| maxamillion | cellofellow: or we could do a complete pyGTK interface to configuration and status/etc .... kinda like the Mac-Q thing | 09:09 |
| cellofellow | kqemu went GPL when Linux 2.6.20 with KVM was released. | 09:10 |
| cellofellow | maybe | 09:10 |
| maxamillion | cellofellow: http://www.kju-app.org/kju/ <---like that | 09:10 |

| Mordicus | grazie: yes, I think it's crap ! thanks Grazie ! ;) | 10:10 |
| hyper_ch | Mordicus: ok, make a backup of the current one: sudo cp Xorg.conf Xorg.conf.backup | 10:10 |
| Mordicus | done ! | 10:11 |
| hyper_ch | Mordicus: then lets restore one of the other backup files: sudo cp -f xorg.conf.save Xorg.conf | 10:11 |
| Mordicus | done | 10:12 |
| hyper_ch | Mordicus: startx | 10:12 |

| Mordicus | "no screens found" | 10:15 |
| hyper_ch | Mordicus: ok, then login again :) | 10:15 |
| hyper_ch | at the terminal | 10:15 |
| maxamillion | Mordicus: log in to the command line and do "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" and go though that tool | 10:15 |
| hyper_ch | and then: sudo cp -f /etc/X11/xorg.conf.save /etc/X11/Xorg.conf | 10:16 |
| hyper_ch | and then reboot again | 10:17 |
| hyper_ch | maxamillion: if that doesn't help, use maxamillion's approach :9 | 10:17 |
| Mordicus | huh... I launched this tool and is asking me a lot of question.. can I abord ? | 10:17 |
| maxamillion | Mordicus: it launched a tool from the command i gave you? | 10:17 |
| hyper_ch | maxamillion: yes, the x-server configuration tool :9 | 10:18 |
| Mordicus | maxamillion: yes | 10:19 |
| Mordicus | but there are a lot of questions asked :/ | 10:19 |
| maxamillion | Mordicus: then answer them | 10:19 |
| Mordicus | not sure I can answer them correctly :s | 10:19 |
| maxamillion | uhm... hmmm, it should have a default value, take the default when you don't know .... what's the worst that could happen, your xserver still not work? | 10:20 |
| Mordicus | maxamillion: what shall I answer for frambuffer ? | 10:20 |
| maxamillion | Mordicus: that shouldn't effect X starting or not, just tell it no | 10:20 |
| Mordicus | ===> ok rebooting | 10:22 |
| maxamillion | Mordicus: ctrl+alt+backspace would have sufficed | 10:22 |
| maxamillion | Mordicus: well .. ctrl+alt+f7 first, then +backspace | 10:23 |
| Mordicus | I still get a Server X error... after rebooting :s | 10:23 |

| Mordicus | my video run faster ! :D (but my screen is too small >.<) | 10:31 |
| Mordicus | how to change the screen resolution ? | 10:32 |
| maxamillion | Mordicus: in the xorg.conf | 10:32 |
| Mordicus | how can I edit it ? | 10:33 |
| bur[n] er | mousepad, gedit, nano, vi, emacs | 10:33 |
| bur[n] er | :) | 10:34 |
| bur[n] er | try the dpkg-reconfigure script | 10:34 |
| bur[n] er | sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 10:34 |
| bur[n] er | it will be easier than editing a text file | 10:34 |
| Mordicus | with the mousepad it's ok ? | 10:34 |
| Mordicus | (last time it did not work :s) | 10:35 |
| bur[n] er | use sudo | 10:35 |

| Mordicus | ok, i opend the file, but what I must change in it please ? | 10:36 |
| bur[n] er | that's what im' saying | 10:38 |
| bur[n] er | just run the script! | 10:38 |
| bur[n] er | you don't have to know what you're doing | 10:38 |

| crimsun | I generally avoid bzr for alsa and choose instead to use what upstreams use (git and hg) | 11:36 |
| haze76 | Have anyone made rp-pppoe 3.8 work in XUbuntu ? | 11:36 |
| crimsun | however, I have several research projects hosted in bzr, and they seem to be fine | 11:36 |
| haze76 | It asks my password, then nothing happens, after following the procedure described in the ubuntu Wiki | 11:36 |
| haze76 | I am using the Feisty Fawn herd 5 which might not be a good idea, but any help is appreciated | 11:37 |
| haze76 | Ubuntu doesn't even install in my laptop | 11:37 |
| haze76 | So I went for xubuntu since I don't like KDE particularly | 11:37 |
| maxamillion | crimsun: yeah, i had always been curious about its performance since it is written in python | 11:38 |
| haze76 | It's a fairly slow laptop too | 11:38 |
| maxamillion | haze76: what are the hardware specs? | 11:38 |
| haze76 | maxamillion: 192 mb ram, 500 mhz celeron processor | 11:38 |
| haze76 | maxamillion: 10 gigabyte harddrive. it's not that slow... | 11:39 |
| haze76 | I was a bit disappointed that the Norwegian translation is incomplete. My father would have preferred Norwegian, but if it's incomplete I prefer to have everything in English | 11:39 |
| haze76 | I guess that is a question of the standard routines for translation that Ubuntu can't just escape? | 11:40 |
| haze76 | You can't just set off translating any app on your own? | 11:40 |
| haze76 | Anyway when I change Internet providers it will be an ethernet cable and work automagically, but for the time being I have to use nasty PPPoE | 11:41 |
| maxamillion | haze76: yeah, i have very little knowledge of the language systems since i only speak english but as far as the installation i'm not entirely sure why you have issues | 11:41 |

| haze76 | I will take a look at that | 11:42 |
