Such things can break systems. It hides all errors, not allowing you to see what is going on. So let's say I try to install something that is conflicting with something else, instead of informing me of this conflict and letting me decide whether to do it, it assumes yes. So I am sure you are familiar of times when aptitude will give you four or five options on how to go about doing som [01:34] ething.

[06:13] Athensman: how old / specs are we talking? [06:13] eylisian, they say 256 [06:13] Ram is the most brilliant thing in the world to upgrade, its cheap (relative to other components) and the performance increase (till 2gb?) is massive. === r00tintheb0x [n=r00tinth@cpe-24-175-106-60.houston.res.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu [06:13] NickGarvey: is that beryl or compiz?

[06:14] drofdarb, beryl, but I have heard beryl is better than compiz [06:14] 7.04 means 2007 April [06:14] drofdarb, it could just be me.. but I'm not sure, it isn't stable code yet [06:14] but say ion3 for a WM on 256 would rock. [06:14] hagabaka, there are no other 7. versions [06:14] tonyyarusso it is a 366 celeron and 256 ram [06:14] no 7.01? [06:14] NickGarvey: ah. Do you know of any way to make the windows move about the desktop more smoothly without either compiz or beryl? [06:15] eylisian, no vm will rock on 256 sorry [06:15] drofdarb, "more smoothly", what do you mean by that? [06:15] heh.

[10:09] so I have an ntfs and an extended partition [10:09] variant : thx [10:09] SuoYlimys: you'll want to create a partition for /var as well... === blake__ is now known as Bonez56 [10:09] radio: np [10:09] puff: if you don't want to run feisty beta, wait till april 19 when the final release is available [10:09] Flannel: Well, been doing some googling, looks like feisty's scheduled for April 15th, maybe I can live with unstable until then. [10:09] otherwise your system could easily fill up the hard drive with log files [10:10] oh.. o.o [10:10] April 19th? Same difference. [10:10] puff: If you need the new kernel, just use feisty. You're using servers, they shouldn't change much (and are probably already solid) anyway. === Frogzoo [n=Frogzoo@202.155.165.25] has joined #ubuntu [10:10] Flannel: That's reassuring. Oky. [10:10] puff: You shouldn't be using the liveCD to install a server anyway. Alternate or server CD. [10:10] SuoYlimys: there is a limit as to how many primary partitions you can have. I'd do just one primary partition. [10:10] puff: Most of the bugs are in GUI stuff anyway. X won't work one day, etc [10:10] make the rest extended [10:10] is there any software for ubuntu that will allow battery management for laptops? I used to have windows and there was a program that would completely flatten and then recharge the battery, kind of reconditioning it [10:10] thanks sky_moneky [10:11] np :) === aga [i=S193-27@targowa.piekary.net] has joined #ubuntu [10:11] dystopianray, I found a tutorial, I'll follow that and if I can't work it out I'll ask k [10:11] puff: it's not terribly unstable actualy, some programs have bugs in feisty that makes for a challenging time. feisty is going to rock quite frankyly when it is released.. the codec discovery feature is fantastic, will put an end to a lot of support requests in here i think === joy` [n=joy@213-238-80-242.adsl.inetia.pl] has joined #ubuntu [10:11] *monkey [10:11] Bonez56: that sort of stuff is largely a myth, the program was probably detrimental to your battery's health [10:11] Flannel: Do you know which daily buid is going to get a fix for the jmicron bug on the main beta page. lots of people can't even boot === Serge_K [n=Serge@83.143.67.12] has joined #ubuntu [10:11] dystopianray, lol ok cool :) i just noticed that on my 6 month old laptop, ubuntu reports that it's last full charge was about 20% less than the battery capacity === Prometheus [n=quant@p57b9d664.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #ubuntu === dougie [n=dougie@pool-71-253-54-20.pitbpa.east.verizon.net] has joined #ubuntu [10:11] hi all [10:12] Peter_Johnsson: absolutely no idea. I only recently upgraded to Dapper. To give you an idea of how much I care about new software ;) === tyler [n=CaptainZ@c-71-207-226-131.hsd1.al.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu [10:12] anyone having LTSP experience? [10:12] why would so many peopel by crappy jmicron hardware? [10:12] Bonez56: that applies to batteries that suffer from "charge memory" if you have a lithium ion (li ion) then this is not an issue [10:12] Peter_Johnsson: Check launchpad, that should give you some idea [10:12] dystopianray: i know, sucks eh [10:12] variant, yes it's a li-on, its only a 6 month old toshiba... [10:12] I'm not a Ubuntu user (yet), but does Xen run fine under either Dapper or Feisty? [10:13] its included by default in lots of mobo's like lots of high end Asus mobos which certainly aren't crap [10:13] dystopianray, do I need to make a linux swap? [10:13] !xen | sky_monkey007 [10:13] sky_monkey007: XEN is a virtual machine monitor for x86 that supports execution of multiple guest operating systems with unprecedented levels of performance and resource isolation. Information on installing it for Ubuntu can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/XenOnEdgy [10:13] Bonez56: what model? some toshibas have shocking power management (some have excellent to be true though) [10:13] dystopianray, or will it make it itself? [10:13] SplashTK: you need to makea partition for it [10:13] variant, Toshiba M40 === Sorcix [n=Sorcix@d51A5EB51.access.telenet.be] has joined #ubuntu [10:13] dystopianray, k 1GB enough? [10:14] SplashTK: how much ram do you have? [10:14] sky_monkey007: this doesn't allow me to do that :D [10:14] this wants me to make a primary partition, after that one extended and one logical [10:14] variant: while Li-ion don't have a physical battery memory, the controller chip that monitors battery levels can cause problem if you don't calibrate your battery by fully charging it and discharging it on a monthly basis. === Enola [n=tim@dslb-084-056-215-249.pools.arcor-ip.net] has joined #ubuntu [10:14] Bonez56: shouldn't have any problems. have you tested it with windows recently? === Enola [n=tim@dslb-084-056-215-249.pools.arcor-ip.net] has left #ubuntu ["Ex-Chat"] [10:14] 512mb [10:14] sky_monkey007: I wasn't aware that that was a problem === predaeus [n=predaeus@chello212186005030.401.14.vie.surfer.at] has joined #ubuntu === wwhim [n=wwhim@60.166.25.149] has joined #ubuntu [10:14] SuoYlimys: you can't make one primary partition, and several extended partitions under it? [10:14] seems that i can't [10:14] variant, nope.. have not tried. don't even know which software program I could use on it... My old laptop was a Compaq but it came with its own software [10:14] dystopianray, 512MB === krolben [n=john@0x555089cc.adsl.cybercity.dk] has joined #ubuntu [10:15] SplashTK: yeah 1GB is fine [10:15] dystopianray, , cool [10:15] variant: it can be an issue. It all depends on who makes your battery module. I run on an older Apple Powerbook G4, and that's what Apple recommends. [10:15] (yes, I do run Linux on it) === niubbo [n=erpirata@host115-176-dynamic.61-82-r.retail.telecomitalia.it] has joined #ubuntu [10:15] SplashTK: you don't technically need a swap partition, linux can use swap files, like windows, but the installer doesnt' handle that situation === jpc [n=Turk@unaffiliated/jpc] has joined #ubuntu [10:15] sky_monkey007: apple sucks though ;) [10:15] dystopianray, okay, so this will be better [10:16] variant: I personally like their laptops. They are far less clunky than most. I've always been a fan of PPC. === TankC [n=ryan@cpe-66-87-14-205.ca.sprintbbd.net] has joined #ubuntu [10:16] I've yet to try one of the Macbook Pro's, though. [10:16] hi all, I'm trying to install Ubuntu Server 6.10. The startup screen (where I choose to install to harddisk) appears fine, but when the next screen (grey background, and a red marker that I use to choose install options) appear, the screen is all blurry and skewed. It's impossible to read anything. What can I do? [10:17] sky_monkey007: yeah, just kidding. ppc rocks and apple tend to make stylish systems.. i don't like the touch pad on some though [10:17] I do tend to dislike Apple desktops because of their lack of hardware expandability, however. [10:17] dystopianray, Okay so now I have ntfs 138GB, which my winxp install is on, ext3 13.67GB which I want to install ubuntu on, and a 1GB linux Swap [10:17] dystopianray, that sound good? [10:17] krolben: Did you verfy the md5 of the iso (unless it was a torret)? did you burn at 4x? [10:17] sky_monkey007: indeed, who wants a closed white box (buy a refrigerator) [10:17] SplashTK: yeah that sounds fine === Dragonath [n=Dragonat@193.40.10.179] has joined #ubuntu [10:18] maybe I didn't do that. Maybe I should d/l it again and give it another try? Has there been other examples of this issue? [10:18] SplashTK: you really don't need that much swap, it will never get used but with a large disk it doesn't matter i suppose [10:18] variant: they aren't bad for server use, but for a personal system, I'd rather go beige-box :) === GionnyBoss [n=gionny@82.50.143.171] has joined #ubuntu [10:18] sky_monkey007: hehe [10:18] krolben: Check the md5 of the iso. If it's not bad, there's no reason to re-download. [10:18] I do run a dual Xeon XServe at work, and it does haul major ass. [10:18] hi [10:18] dystopianray, okay now I got mount point and 3 things to choose from [10:18] suprisingly they were cheaper than a Dell with the same specs [10:18] ok, I'll check. Do you know what the problem could be, if the md5 is ok? [10:19] dystopianray, first drop down says /media//hda1 [10:19] sky_monkey007: i work in a datacenter, not a mac in the entire place that i have seen === the_man_mountain [n=the_man_@222.127.42.82] has joined #ubuntu [10:19] krolben: But, if you didn't burn at 4x, then that's a good source of errors (bad burns, that is). [10:19] SplashTK: set '/' as the ~13GB partition === hybrid [n=x@72.169.30.254] has joined #ubuntu [10:19] sky_monkey007: is it okay if i'll just make them as two primary partitions, one extended and one logical? will it work if they are like that? [10:19] How do you update suversion under ubuntu? [10:19] SplashTK: and swap to that 1GB one [10:19] k [10:19] the_man_mountain: update the subversion software? === joy` [n=joy@213-238-80-242.adsl.inetia.pl] has left #ubuntu ["see] [10:19] dys: Yes [10:19] SplashTK: is this your first install? [10:19] dystopianray, there's a another 2 drop downs after that, make them blank? [10:19] dystopianray, yeah lol, sorry [10:20] SplashTK: yes just make them blank, you only have two relevant partitions [10:20] could it be a hardware issue? I've got Ubuntu Desktop 6.10 installed fine on the system (but want to install Server instead) [10:20] SuoYlimys: I think you may be misunderstanding how parition heirarchy works... === Crusher [n=You@121.45.189.121] has joined #ubuntu [10:20] dystopianray, okay done that [10:20] the_man_mountain: you'll need to find a newer deb, or upgrade to a newer ubuntu release [10:20] you have a primary partition which can have extended partitions... [10:20] under the extended partitions, you can break it up into more logical partitons === Nipp0n [n=Nipp0n@81-235-165-123-no21.tbcn.telia.com] has left #ubuntu [] [10:20] sky_monkey007: it's the only way this is allowing me to do it o.o [10:21] dystopianray, hit install? I verfied that everything was right, as in installing on the right partitions etc === Raduuz [n=raduuz@gw.rejk-net.sk] has joined #ubuntu [10:21] krolben: actually, it can be. The server CD has less HW support than the others. A good choice would be grab the alternate CD, install a console-only system, then change to the server kernel if you want. [10:21] SuoYlimys: make the extended partition to take the whole rest of the disk and make logical partiitons inside that one [10:21] SplashTK: yes just hit install and it should all be fine [10:21] umm.. okay :D [10:21] i'll try [10:21] dystopianray, k thanks, you are a legend [10:21] SplashTK: are you installing edgy? [10:22] Ubuntu Ultimate 1.3 [10:22] So yeah I think edgy [10:22] Flannel: the system is on an mini-itx board, so it could probably be the hardware...

[10:22] mm any way to play windows media player plugin movies in firefox? I can play them if I download them just fine, but not in browser... [10:23] Hi! Is there an apache 2.2 bacport for edgy? [10:23] Flannel, Yeah, but beryl and everything is already installed and works out of the box [10:23] zoli21: nope === Cnl_Delta [i=Cnl_Delt@124.125.36.24] has joined #ubuntu === apex` [n=arw@clt-84-32-228-89.dtiltas.lt] has joined #ubuntu [10:24] but... who can i make those logical partitions inside the extended partition? [10:24] exit [10:24] woops [10:24] how [10:24] variant: if your in a Windows centric environment then you probably have no real need for an Xserve. We run a good deal of Mac clients, so I use the Xserve as an Open Directory (LDAP) server to manage my Mac client user and machine settings, and it also serves as a SMB and AFP file server, and Jabber IM server too. [10:24] :( [10:24] SplashTK: really, the "ultimate" editions are not worth it, for the one or two clicks they remove in installing beryl they also remove all support options that you would have with the real version [10:24] sky_monkey007: it's very heterogenous, but mostly windows (:/) === naught101 [n=naught10@60-242-222-210.tpgi.com.au] has joined #ubuntu === hyapadi [n=hyapadi@203.128.85.8] has joined #ubuntu [10:25] zoli21: if you want apache 2.2 you'll have to (possibly wait to) upgrade to Feisty. [10:25] OS 10.4 Server can integrate "ok" with Active Directory, but you can't administer any of your AD accounts with it, since Microsoft Active Directory isn't pure LDAP. [10:25] sky_monkey007: just googled for xserve, had no idea apple made rackables lol [10:25] variant: how can i make those logical partitions inside the extended partition? === yikuo [n=yikuo@61-230-65-161.dynamic.hinet.net] has joined #ubuntu [10:25] sky_monkey007: I can't see it being overly populer tbh in the face of cheap commodity hardware [10:25] SuoYlimys: select the extended partition, and create logical partitions underneath it. === Ayabara_ [n=Ayabara@84.210.83.52] has joined #ubuntu [10:26] Flannel: I built a usb distro based on edgy, it is not so easy uprgrade everything and apache 2.0 doesn't work if I run it on the live usb. [10:26] SuoYlimys: an extended partition is a container for logical partitions === waxyfresh [n=r00t@204.181.128.140] has joined #ubuntu [10:26] right, so no windows media player plugin for a firefox on linux? [10:26] how do i create them there? :D [10:26] SuoYlimys: to be honest, in the installer gui i have no idea === cwe_ring [n=cwe_ring@125.162.205.49] has joined #ubuntu [10:27] variant: well when we priced out a similar Dell server with fiber-channel NIC and a 10.5TB RAID enclosure, an XServe with a 10.5TB XRaid was our most economical solution. === frafra [n=frafra@d83-184-165-130.cust.tele2.it] has joined #ubuntu === cwe_ring is now known as hen_dra [10:27] hi all [10:27] variant, this one has alot of stuff, not sure if anything was removed :S [10:27] sky_monkey007: really, they look very expensive [10:27] zoli21: Why doesn't apache work? What makes you think 2.2 will? [10:27] SplashTK: what you mean? [10:28] variant, the support stuff you were refering too, don't think it was taken out :S === Triddle [n=tyler@c-67-189-71-114.hsd1.wa.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu [10:28] variant: not as expensive as Dell was.

[10:28] the XRaids are great for the price. They have total remote administration, easy as hell to setup...iLO as well. [10:28] Flannel: If I request files from apache2 on the server side i got that everything is tranfared but on the other site data with zero length is received.

Anyone have one? [10:29] sky_monkey007: cool, we should probably not discuss it here though :) [10:29] zoli21: and what makes you think 2.2 would fix that? [10:29] Flannel: some types of files are transferred (php, gif) and som not (jpg,png) [10:29] Triddle: was there a new kernel installed? you might need to reboot [10:29] The only downside is that the drives on the XRaid are ATA-133. I wish they would've released a model with SAS drives, but meh. [10:29] dystopianary: I have rebooted [10:29] and why is this leaving 4,7GB diskspace unused [10:29] and I reran depmod -a just to be sure === magical_trevsky [n=magical@80-45-41-53.static.dsl.as9105.com] has joined #ubuntu [10:30] true :) I'll shutup about the *cough* other brand [10:30] or unallocated [10:30] zoli21: sounds like a misconfiguration, not a versioning thing.

[10:31] zoli21: Well, if it's something you did, then presumably, when you upgrade to Feisty, you'll do the same thing. Why dont you just fix whatever you broke? [10:31] WOW, NOW IT WORKS! \O/ [10:31] nice :) [10:32] i didn't notice what did i do differently this time :D [10:32] compwiz18: that's not how you're supposed to do it. If you want your default shell to be zsh, set it.

If you don't like this, go and buy a Windows licence [11:06] Virtual: I'm using SATA HD with no problems on Gentoo, so I assume that your installation CD doesn't have the drivers.

[11:08] Virtual: There are definitely drivers for SATA under linux, but it may be possible that the installation CD you are using doesn't have them, maybe because it's to old, or too small, or whatever.
