[01:03] robert, what did it say? [01:03] robert: i don't think so ... i believe that is going to be the listing of the actual hardware as it is detected [01:04] it's useful for determining the proper driver though [01:04] it said Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82562ET/EZ/GT/GZ - PRO/100 VE (LOM) Ethernet Controller (rev 03) [01:04] robert, e1000 iirc [01:04] .. [01:04] ? [01:04] im sorry? [01:05] I believe that card uses the e1000 driver [01:05] (it's a kernel module) [01:05] robert: yeah, the listing you just showed is just the hardware and not the driver [01:05] oh [01:05] i need the driver [01:05] actually it's probably e100 [01:05] because xp doesnt recognize it [01:06] robert: "lsmod | grep e1000" [01:06] k [01:06] robert: wait ... the linux driver isn't going to help you windows xp install do anything [01:06] cant i find an xp equivalent? [01:06] robert, it will confirm the chipset though [01:06] LOL [01:06] the prev command didnt do netin [01:07] robert, do it again with e100 [01:07] lsmod|grep e100 [01:07] robert: no, take the first out put and search google for "Intel Corporation 82562ET/EZ/GT/GZ - PRO/100 VE (LOM) Ethernet Controller (rev 03) [01:07] +driver" [01:07] e100 38020 0 [01:07] mii 6912 1 e100 [01:07] yep that's it [01:07] ok [01:08] it's the standard intel chipset [01:08] now i need a driver for it? [01:08] robert: under linux? ... no, its already handled [01:08] robert: just configure and go [01:08] i mean [01:08] i need a driver for windows [01:09] !windows [01:09] For help with Microsoft Windows, please visit ##windows or your nearest mental health institute.

[01:13] i just put it in my slot [01:14] robert: did it show up on the desktop as an icon? [01:14] yes [01:14] i can view the contents of it [01:14] robert: right click that icon and click "mount device" (or something like that) [01:15] cant [01:15] huh .....

[01:26] robert: no, you shouldn't ... it should just be seen as a usb drive [01:26] it does [01:26] but i cant write [01:27] that's really strange ... it might have to do with the filesystem of the card [01:28] mm [01:28] alright thx [01:28] brb === nilleso [n=gosselju@bas14-toronto63-1096770987.dsl.bell.ca] has joined #xubuntu === nilleso [n=gosselju@bas14-toronto63-1096770987.dsl.bell.ca] has left #xubuntu [] === j1mc [n=jim@adsl-75-22-225-51.dsl.chcgil.sbcglobal.net] has joined #xubuntu === BFTD [n=thomas@dialup-4.246.223.155.Dial1.SanJose1.Level3.net] has joined #xubuntu === kalikiana_ [n=kalikian@xdsl-87-78-20-87.netcologne.de] has joined #xubuntu === bigfuzzyjesus [n=bigfuzzy@unaffiliated/bigfuzzyjesus] has joined #xubuntu === jcompton [n=jcompton@66-188-89-94.dhcp.mdsn.wi.charter.com] has joined #xubuntu [02:40] Is there an easy way to get KDE 3.5.6 into Xubuntu 6.06?

Since you two arrived after I asked the question... do you know an easy way to get KDE 3.5.6 into Xubuntu 6.06? [03:11] iis that the version in the repos? [03:11] Nope, Synaptic only offers me 3.5.5. [03:11] !info KDE [03:11] kde: the K Desktop Environment official modules. In component universe, is optional. Version 5:47 (edgy), package size 7 kB, installed size 40 kB [03:12] well im not sure is 0.0.1 realy that mcuh better [03:12] you might have to search for tird-party debs or compile your own [03:12] Yeah, I know, I need it for a specific purpose. Trying to track down a potential app incompatibility with KDE. A colleague gets it to show up and he uses 3.5.6, I cannot reproduce it with 3.5.5.

[04:51] Yeah [04:51] Pure install disc, not the desktop cd [04:51] How far does it get? [04:52] I tried to install it in text mode, to save memory, but it seems to be the same as OEM mode [04:52] it gets to the detecting hardware part, then finishes, and just puts the cursor below the blue screen, and sits there [04:52] it has a 4GB partition [04:53] OEM mode is likely not what you want. [04:54] I would put more RAM in it if it was that easy, but it takes PC100 notebook ram (its an old eMachine) so its very hard to find [04:54] How long has it been at that stage? [04:54] Well, I selected text mode, and it booted up the same GUI-like installer as OEM mode does [04:54] I left it in that stage for about 10 minutes [04:54] and it was still the same [04:56] The installer uses the same interface, but OEM mode leaves a lot of the configuration for later when the 'buyer' sets up the machine. [04:56] oic, well I didn't know that, its always good to know these things :) thanks for that [04:56] But anyways [04:57] I was kinda thinking text mode installer like thge old slackware installer modes, where you could see all the output [04:57] If you switch to a console, you may be able to see something. [04:58] (ctrl + alt + F1, same but with F7 to return) [04:59] Ah, you can do that? Well, makes sense, sinec the linux kernel is already loaded [04:59] since* === maxamillion [n=adam@r74-192-178-37.htvlcmta01.hnvitx.tl.dh.suddenlink.net] has joined #xubuntu === ron_o [n=ron@12-210-175-113.client.mchsi.com] has joined #xubuntu === tonyyarusso [n=anthony@ubuntu/member/tonyyarusso] has joined #xubuntu === grazie [n=grazie@host86-139-192-210.range86-139.btcentralplus.com] has joined #xubuntu [05:49] pumpernickel: Apparently crtl+alt+f1 doesn't woprk on the installer [05:51] I've heard that too [05:52] I just tried :\ Hmmm, I wanna know whats happenin while this is just sittin' here, I wonder if there was a hardware issue [05:52] Koba: on the feisty live cd installer? [05:53] edgy xubuntu altern cd [05:53] alt+f1 [05:53] detects the hardware, then brings a cursor to the bottom of the screen, and sits [05:53] alt+f1 does nothing also [05:54] Koba: ctrl+alt+f1 is only for if you are switching to tty1 from X [05:54] alt+[f2-f6] actually [05:54] oh .... [05:54] ok, i'll try that [05:54] yeah ... i think alt+f1 is either blank on the installer or is the tty the installer is using [05:54] yes [05:55] woot, alt+f2 worked [05:55] boot os using it [05:55] Wow, This is wierd [05:55] Koba: ? [05:56] Umm, boot the OS? This is the installer cd, not a live CD, also, this computer is running 64MB of RAM, on a Intel Celeron 400MHz (which apparently should install xubuntu fine) [05:56] Koba: yes, it should === pirea [n=sean@oh-67-76-243-19.dyn.embarqhsd.net] has joined #xubuntu [05:57] i'm in busybox right now [05:57] And not really sure how to start the install via command line [05:58] Koba: don't you have the installer running already in alt+f1? [05:59] Well, I started the installer via text mode, then pressed alt+f2, and it loaded busybox [05:59] and yes, the installer is in alt+f1 [06:00] busybox isn't showing output for anything I do in the installer either [06:00] alt+[f2-f6] are alternate consoles...you don't want to start the installer twice! [06:00] No, I know that [06:01] but, for some odd reason, the installer stops after detecting the CD ROM stuff, and I can't see any output to see what went wrong [06:01] i don't i'm understanding the problem [06:01] din't think* [06:02] K, I start the installer, load it in text mode, pick my country, then my keyboard layout, then it does a detection for the CD ROM, then it brings the cursor to the bottom of the blue screen, and sits there doing nothing [06:02] Koba: sounds to me like your cd-rom isn't being detected by the kernel .... the bios knows its there and will boot from it but once the kernel loads and tries to look for it, it is unable to find it and then stops ... i had this problem with an older machine and the only distro i could find to boot on it was debian sarge (using a 2.4 kernel) [06:02] There must be some kind of error [06:03] i thought 96mb was the minimum ram requirement [06:03] the thing is, is it seems to go through the detection just fine [06:03] i believe it has something to with 2.6 dropping support for some legacy hardware [06:03] Koba: oh ... [06:03] No, the xubuntu site says 64MB will run it, but 128 is recommended [06:04] grazie: it will run on 64mb ... i've done it ... its slow, but it installs and runs [06:04] max: would you suggest any other linux distros for this low end computer? (preferably with apt-get, because there are some edubuntu apps that I want to run on it) [06:04] dsl [06:05] no apt-get though [06:05] dsl runs on this computer, I know that, but, dsl doesn't have apt-get does it [06:05] no [06:05] hm [06:05] i've never tried puppy [06:06] Koba: debian sarge .... debian invented apt, ubuntu only has apt because it is based on debian (just incase you didn't already know that) [06:06] yeah, I knew that, but its alright, your tryin' to help me, so its much appreciated [06:07] debian sarge huh, would there be any way for me to get those edubuntu games onto sarge? (I'll get the names, hold on) [06:08] Gcompris, and tux4kids [06:10] Koba: ohhh ... let me check [06:12] k, gcompris works on debian [06:13] Koba: tux4kids is a no go on sarge ... probably on etch though, you could see if etch will install [06:13] etch? [06:13] I'm on the debian page, and all I see is the stable release [06:13] Koba: its debian's testing branch ... it will be stable release in a couple months [06:14] oh ok [06:15] Those maintainers would deprive the poor children of their tux4kids? :( [06:15] lol [06:15] Koba: http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer/ <--- etch release candidate 2 image [06:16] pirea: i don't think tux4kids existed when sarge repos went to a package freeze [06:17] i don't really know any games, but will those games run properly with low ram? === maxamillion doesn't assume so [06:17] yeah... [06:17] Well, it's worth a try, I guess === grazie true [06:18] I so forgot why I came in here... oh, where can you find daily snapshots again? :) [06:18] holy, etch is 3 DVD's large...? [06:18] get net-install cd [06:19] That would take a very long to install [06:20] not if you've got a good conection. it quicker than reading the cd usually [06:21] Koba: either get the net-install cd or get cd1 and cd2, those are all you need for install (if you just want minimal you can get away with cd1) [06:22] alright === grazie has not time for distros that still need loads of cds or a dvd to install it === maxamillion doesn't either === g4h [n=server40@adsl-75-45-161-160.dsl.sfldmi.sbcglobal.net] has joined #xubuntu === Koba hsa not time for silly computers with hardly any system memory -_- [06:33] what is DSL based on? [06:34] Koba: debian [06:34] Koba: well technically on knoppix, but knoppix is based on debian and DSL has a very stripped down version of the debian base system and thus apt doesn't fully work === sigmamu188 [n=jwheeler@cpe-70-116-80-78.houston.res.rr.com] has joined #xubuntu [06:35] sigmamu188: j0 [06:35] maxamillion: whats up player?

[06:37] Koba: is there no .deb package? [06:37] maxamillion: whats the word on the beta? you think its stable enough for a novice like me? [06:37] Koba: in theory ... you might even be able to download a debian version of gcompris and just use dpkg to install ... dunno about dependencies though [06:37] sigmamu188: yeah, i run it at work right now (still use edgy at home though) [06:37] grazie: there might be, but sources always seem to work better [06:38] maxamillion: any conflicts with nvidia that you know of? [06:38] Koba: that's a low spec machine for compiling :( [06:38] sigmamu188: no, it has the new drivers too and include that tool i told you about ... I bet money the nvidia tool in feisty would fix your problem [06:38] grazie: I know [06:38] Not much you can really do with this machine [06:38] but it was free (for a reason) [06:39] runs windows 98, but I hate windows, and windows hates children [06:39] !beta [06:39] Download Feisty Fawn Beta at http://releases.ubuntu.com/7.04, read release notes at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FeistyFawn/Beta and upgrade instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FeistyUpgrades; consider doing https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing; Just because it's almost ready doesn't mean it is - final releases happen when they do for a reason, be warned and prepared for unbootable systems. [06:40] maxamillion: can i upgrade though terminal or do i need to download and burn it to a cd? === grazie thinks fresh install is better option whenever possible [06:41] sigmamu188: you can upgrade through terminal ... just open your /etc/apt/sources.list file and change ever instance of "edgy" to "feisty" and do "sudo aptitude update" then "sudo aptitude dist-upgrade" then reboot and do "sudo aptitude upgrade" and that will upgrade you to feisty system, reboot and then upgrade all the applications [06:45] here goes nothing [06:45] is there a command to check which HDA drives are available? [06:45] and how big they are? [06:46] anyone got a pointer on thunderbird sometimes pegging the CPU? Actually, it's xorg which pegs, but it only happens when i'm typing in the subject line in thunderbird. [06:47] rici: i never get that problem [06:47] Koba: df -h [06:48] rici: no clue but i have noticed firefox do that from time to time ... i hope it was fixed in the recent update [06:48] grazie: hm, dsl doesn't seem to have my hard drive in the fstab [06:48] maxamillion: what is the hd command? [06:49] maxamillion: i typed it in on a whim and it returned a blank line [06:49] maxamillion: or rather what dose it do? [06:49] sigmamu188: what hd command? [06:49] maxamillion: it happens occasionally in ff too but only when i have acrobat running; i kinda expect that sort of thing from acrobat [06:49] but with thunderbird it's consistent. [06:49] Koba: don't understand you [06:49] maxamillion: type "hd" into terminal [06:49] rici: oooh, yeah ... i would bet that's accrobat [06:50] grazie: Umm, when I use df -h, there is no hda listed [06:50] sigmamu188: that's a hexdump command ... why on earth would you do that? [06:50] Koba: is dsl installed or live cd? [06:50] live cd [06:50] I am trying to install it [06:50] maxamillion: i dont know, curiosity. what did i just do? [06:50] Koba: odd! [06:51] sigmamu188: you asked for a hexadecimal dump of what you were about to type [06:52] maxamillion: i tend to learn things the hard way, so if i didn't type anything it didnt do anything.
