[08:08] PiTcReW: I have used sox [08:09] h3sp4wn: how do you have your desktop setup? Are you using GDM? [08:09] concept10: I use startx [08:09] so startx launches what? xfwm4? or xdm? [08:09] lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 14 2007-04-14 19:06 x-window-manager -> /usr/bin/xfwm4 [08:10] so root is running xfwm4 but you login as regular user [08:10] I try to avoid using a .xsession if I can because it overrides some of the stuff in /etc/X11/Xsession.d/ [08:10] that line is from /etc/alternatives [08:11] layer upon layer im going to break this stuff down today :) [08:11] h3sp4wn, is it command line based? [08:11] PiTcReW: batch is commandline isn't it ? [08:11] h3sp4wn: yeah, do you type startx everytime or you have a script do it? [08:12] by batch i meant multiple files at once [08:12] concept10: I just type startx (often I am not in X anyway) [08:13] PiTcReW: Just use a script with sox or another command line application [08:13] I guess I have to find the init script that runs brings up GDM [08:13] and redirect to another login manager [08:14] since they changed to upstart, im confused as hell on the boot processes [08:14] concept10: Actually I have x-session-manager set to /usr/bin/xfce4-session also) [08:18] I think im going to backup my /home and switch over to gentoo on the desktop this weekend [08:19] concept10: the mechanism didn;t change, it's still all in init.d [08:19] concept10: and rc.d [08:20] I rather stay with a debian based system, but feisty is buggier and buggier closer to release [08:20] that's a norm [08:20] TheSheep: yeah, I know they have that sysvcompat package [08:20] I thought they were supposed to change it completely over this release [08:21] concept10: but the actual scripts that bring up deamons are the same [08:23] concept10: gentoo is fine (fonts are not messed up for xfce - at least if you use the xeffects overlay) [08:23] h3sp4wn: you also have a gentoo system? [08:23] concept10: I did have prior to reinstalling feisty [08:23] why did you move back? [08:24] thought by now because of all the make it beautiful thing it would all be perfect no messing around [08:24] No sensible reason really - (I was using paludis instead of portage though - portage does suck) [08:25] Thats the package manager from the guy that was fighting with d.robbins? [08:25] concept10: quite possibly but it works a hell of alot better than portage [08:26] (or refuses to do stupid stuff where portage messes up your system) [08:27] concept10: If I had realised I wouldn't have switched back (but wanted to spend less time messing with my pc and more messing with openwrt) [08:27] concept10: however the opposite is true [08:27] I just want a distro that works. Debian is fine on the servers.. no change there. I beginning not to like Ubuntu. Stuff like bcm43xx works one month, next one it doesnt. Also, ubuntu is adding a whole bunch of stuff I don't need. [08:28] concept10: Just use sid === toupar [n=toupar@222.20.226.220] has left #xubuntu [] [08:29] On a regular ubuntu-desktop, they have a whole bunch of daemons running that don't provide me any value, just take up memory and cycles. Since I can't log into my system, I see xfce running with 40 less processes and its even better. [08:30] concept10: I know - I reinstalled after installing the default xubuntu - after realising just how much junk is started by default (cli only install) [08:30] h3sp4wn: so you built up from minimal install? === varka [n=varkatop@p54A5F5C4.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #xubuntu [08:31] concept10: Yep but its getting to the point where I am rebuilding too much stuff [08:32] h3sp4wn: why are you rebuilding (to make smaller) or have a certain config? [08:33] concept10: get rid most of the customisations it seems [08:33] h3sp4wn: have you not tried Arch? [08:34] grazie: No should I ? [08:34] h3sp4wn: if you haven't you must [08:34] What I want is the debian equivalent of fedora rawhide [08:35] but I don't think one exists [08:35] there was supposed to be grumpy groundhog ubuntu at one point === BFTD [n=thomas@dialup-4.246.216.74.Dial1.SanJose1.Level3.net] has joined #xubuntu [08:37] h3sp4wn: its seems that (k/x)ubuntu uses a kitchen sink approch these days. When something comes out they integrate it. For example avahi, networkmanager, pulseaudio. The integration is poor sometimes. Some of it doesnt add much value. I can remember way back to 2005 that Ubuntu was trying to integrate NM, and its still not 100%. I don't know if it's upstream or the packagers or the specs or what. [08:38] concept10: network manager is a flawed design in my opinion [08:38] h3sp4wn:how do i get started writing a script to use with sox [08:38] i don't know fedora rawhide, but if you want to configure a system just how you want it, but don't want to compile everything from source I think Arch is the answer and pacman is really. I like xubuntu for convience but... [08:39] for mass audio bitrate conversion [08:39] At this point, I just want a minimal install that works. Hell, CLI works without all of these extra daemons running, I just want a light X above that. Maybe fluxbox or xfce. [08:40] grazie: maybe I will try Arch this weekend. [08:40] PiTcReW: just read a shell scripting guide [08:40] alright [08:40] he can also use gstreamer for this [08:40] grazie: I thought about crux (I heard arch had bad quality control) [08:41] or vector linux [08:41] yeah but crux compile from source too [08:41] something put me off vector - I can't remeber what [08:43] I am not really anti source based - (I honestly thought feisty would be perfect in terms of its fonts and general rendering) === SULT [n=sultan@host235.201-253-85.telecom.net.ar] has joined #xubuntu === icicled [n=icicled@adsl-209-30-201-83.dsl.rcsntx.swbell.net] has joined #xubuntu === superkirbyartist [n=superkir@bas1-ottawa10-1242462373.dsl.bell.ca] has joined #xubuntu [08:48] I've been trying to enable Direct Rendering on my iMac forever.

[09:55] If planetpenguin-racer is slow, will StepMania be? [09:55] superkirbyartist: planetpenguin (which is just like tuxracer to me) works fine but is slow === grazie tut tut [10:02] ok, I've tested xfburn, graveman, brasero and gnomebaker, and only the last one has a hint of meaningful error messages [10:03] that give any clue on which files have wrong names and prevent burning [10:03] TheSheep: did I miss something earlier? [10:04] grazie: no, I'm just ranting now, please ignore ;) [10:05] use k3b (it is the best) [10:05] I'd have to install half of kde :/ [10:05] and I'm allergic to it ;) [10:06] 'sides, k3b is too complicated [10:06] I should build myself a minimal kde === sultanovich [n=sultan@host235.201-253-85.telecom.net.ar] has left #xubuntu ["Abandonando"] [10:07] well the libs - then prelink it - just enough for amarok and k3b === grazie thinks kde should build a minimal kde :) === TheSheep thinks gtk should have good apps === rexbinary [n=rexbinar@unaffiliated/rexbinary] has joined #xubuntu [10:08] Its perfectly possible - that is the fault of the distro's [10:08] the source has loads of stuff that doesn't need enabling === TheSheep thinks the kde devs should drop kde and start developing good gtk apps ;) === grazie the better solution [10:08] gtk is nasty [10:08] what? [10:09] h3sp4wn: it has its traps [10:09] h3sp4wn: kde has some too [10:09] TheSheep: c++ is nasty also though [10:09] so neither can win [10:10] isn't xfce written in gtkmm? [10:10] that's both nasties in one ;) [10:10] I haven't looked at the code of xfce - e17 is written in nice clean C though [10:11] I've seen nice clean C several times only in my life [10:11] otoh I have never seen nice clean c++ [10:13] I haven't seen it often (e17 has the advantage for me of even though I am incapable of writing such code it is completely obvious how it works) [10:14] I've heard TeX source code is nice to read === sc0tt_ [n=sc0tt@cpc1-stok5-0-0-cust150.bagu.cable.ntl.com] has joined #xubuntu [10:33] TheSheep: what's the best way of setting ntp in xubuntu?
