| beg1689 | ok maybe this is more of a request than a bug: there is no easy way to switch between dhcp and static ip (in this case im referring to wired network) | 01:39 |

| The_Jack_of_Club | whootz | 01:40 |

| Eleaf | misfit_toy, why would it not work? | 03:17 |
| xtknight | checkinstall doesnt always track everything correctly | 03:18 |
| RAOF | instabin: Remove that "nv". Your l-r-m-c file should have DISABLED_MODULES="" at the bottom of it. | 03:18 |
| RAOF | Eleaf: Oh, *autopackage*. That shouldn't be in the repos because it doesn't have to be. | 03:18 |

| instabin | well stored at ? | 03:23 |
| RAOF | Eleaf: Yes, probably. Autopackage is kinda broken by design, though. It's got an uninstall as far as I know. | 03:23 |
| cabajgtr_ | Does anyone know if Nvidia-glx-legacy supports TV out? | 03:23 |

| leal | Shootfast: intel 865 | 04:44 |
| Shootfast | leal: Im trying on an XPC Shuttle, same mobo | 04:44 |
| leal | Shootfast: do you know the ubuntu procedure to create a initrd? | 04:45 |
| DarkMageZ | corevette, i'm not getting a responce from that ip... | 04:45 |
| leal | Shootfast: i use to mount and create the files by hand... but i can't do that in ubuntu... | 04:45 |
| Shootfast | yeah but it didnt work, someone suggested I try YAIRD, but i cant use that on the live cd as it cant mount the filesystem :S | 04:45 |
| leal | YAIRD? | 04:46 |
| Shootfast | its a debian tool for generating initrd files that more closely match your system | 04:46 |
| leal | Shootfast: ok. | 04:46 |

| Shootfast | diabolix: hopefully | 04:48 |
| stdin | diabolix: not automatically | 04:48 |
| stdin | diabolix: but it's an easy install | 04:48 |
| diabolix | ok.. | 04:48 |
| diabolix | and what about mp3s and videos, are all those crazy codec issues cleared up? | 04:49 |
| Shootfast | diabolix: doesnt it tell you that the device you have has a propriatary driver and ask if you want it? | 04:49 |
| stdin | diabolix: mp3 codes installs when you try to play an mp3 file | 04:49 |
| diabolix | Shootfast, i want to wait till the official release, haven't tried yet. | 04:49 |

| Dr_willis | diabolix, only in a GOOD way. :) | 05:01 |
| Shootfast | kde is so much easier to customize though, gnome baby sits you through everything | 05:02 |

| Shootfast | mac annoys me too.... | 05:03 |
| diabolix | true that.. about kde. | 05:03 |

| Shootfast | or download osx86 | 05:03 |
| misfit_toy | Dr_willis, "apple-tv" ? that new device thingy? | 05:03 |
| Dr_willis | misfit_toy, yea - seen some articals on them. | 05:04 |
| Shootfast | then you must hate gnome | 05:04 |
| misfit_toy | yeah, me too Dr_willis | 05:04 |
| Endler | The thing I don't like about gnome is they why they take all your options away and decided for you the "one and only best way to do everything" so as not to confuse the user's little brain. If they's shitcan all their "usability studies" I'd be fine with it, 'cause I like some of the aps. | 05:04 |
| diabolix | you know.. when she saw me using kde at work (i have to use suse) she got really excited about the bouncing startup notification.. i think i will install kde. | 05:04 |
| Dr_willis | misfit_toy, they would be a neat mythtv front end box. :) | 05:04 |
| diabolix | kubuntu | 05:04 |
| misfit_toy | Dr_willis, zackly | 05:04 |
| Dr_willis | but for the $$ not sure if ya could build a mini-itx system for about the same. | 05:04 |

| diabolix | latest as in 4.0? | 05:05 |
| Endler | Sorry about all the typos. | 05:05 |

| diabolix | wich is completely understandable. i was a slackware user for a long time, but edgy converted me. even tho i still get angry that headers aren't installed by default. | 05:12 |
| misfit_toy | diabolix, my wife's new laptop has freaking vista on it, and she wants *me* to help her, hell, it looks like kde to me. | 05:13 |
| Shootfast | i'm trying to get into slackware, but i just havnt had the time recently | 05:13 |
| RAOF | Shootfast: If you can't boot, fire up a LiveCD (or, better yet, an AlternateCD - it's got a "repair existing instalation"), chroot into your existing system and then fix it.) | 05:13 |
| Dr_willis | heh.. 'come show me how to use this program honey, that you have NEVER seen befor! and be quick about it!' | 05:13 |
| Endler | I don't understand why so many people just use the default desktops arrangements, and use two bars with menus on top in gnome and single bar on bottom for KDE. Sheesh. That's just each's default, not a reason to pick one or the other. It takes all of a few minutes to customize ether one to whatever layout you like. Most people sure aren't very adventurous! | 05:13 |
| diabolix | slackware is nice. i use it on my desktop, but i would never want to take the time to set up a laptop in slackware again. | 05:14 |
| Shootfast | ROAF: thanks man, where abouts is repair existing installation? | 05:14 |
| Jordan_U | Does Feisty use devicescape ? | 05:14 |
| Dr_willis | i wish more of the disrtos would use the default/vanilla Kde or gnome setuop. that way all the different distros would be easier to learn. :) well learn the basics of the desktop i guess. | 05:14 |
| === geubank4 [n=chatzill@cpe-76-183-250-45.tx.res.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu+1 | ||
| diabolix | like slackware.. doesn't even ship with a slackware icon or splash screen, everything is vanilla. | 05:15 |
| Dr_willis | Moving the wife from a Mandrake, to a ubuntu box.. shouldnt mean she needs to relearn where all the kde/gnome/whatever icons are now at. | 05:15 |
| crimsun | Jordan_U: for as much as possible, yes. | 05:15 |
| bullgard4 | Shootfast: The icon shaped as a loudspeaker symbol according to Synaptic Synaptic: "enables you to control the sound volume on your system." But I did ask for a description of gnome-volume-manager. gnome-volume-manager has a different function: It allows to set settings of removable media. | 05:15 |
| crimsun | Jordan_U: GIT-SHA 4d0fb64df98a9e21644525615df34ab2056eb569 | 05:15 |
| Jordan_U | crimsun, Does that mean that it uses the new broadcom drivers that I have heard are much better? | 05:16 |
| RAOF | Shootfast: If you boot from the AlternateCD, there's a boot option "repair existing..." which will boot up, then ask you which partition you'd like to chroot into. From there, you just want to do whatever to fix your system (probably just an apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade) | 05:16 |
| diabolix | what kernel does feisty ship with? | 05:16 |
| crimsun | Jordan_U: no. It has been merged but likely won't appear until a post-release feisty-updates kernel upload. | 05:16 |
| Shootfast | thats awesome, thanks alot RAOF | 05:16 |
| crimsun | diabolix: 2.6.20.point release + patches | 05:16 |
| bullgard4 | diabolix: 2.6.20-15-generic usually. | 05:17 |
| Jordan_U | crimsun, So would something like that actually added after release or would it just be in backports / Gutsy? | 05:17 |
| diabolix | does anyone happen to know if the rtl818x wireless driver made it in again? its in edgy, and i need it for my laptop. | 05:17 |
| nomasteryoda | that is a ralink chipset is it not? | 05:18 |
| Endler | I prefer distro don't do too much customizing of the layout either, because I do it myself anyway, and it's quicker starting from a more standard base. I especially don't like the way Kubuntu screws around with Konqueror and tries to dumb it down. | 05:18 |
| diabolix | nomasteryoda, yeah. | 05:18 |
| Shootfast | well guys gotta go, great talking to you all, thanks for the help | 05:18 |
| crimsun | Jordan_U: you might want to reread what I typed. :) | 05:18 |
| nomasteryoda | diabolix, i would think it is in the packages... | 05:18 |
| Shaddox | Hi everyone. How do I get sound working in Enemy Territory? | 05:18 |
| nomasteryoda | but looking might help | 05:19 |
| Jordan_U | crimsun, No, I just don't understand what you typed :) | 05:19 |
| diabolix | nomasteryoda, it shiped with an edgy kernel update that nobody seems to know about. | 05:19 |
| nomasteryoda | Shaddox, alsamixer in a console to see what is muted | 05:19 |
| diabolix | where would i be able to find that information? | 05:19 |
| Shaddox | The windows version in WINE works, but the linux build has no sound. | 05:19 |
| nomasteryoda | diabolix, open a terminal and type that command as user | 05:19 |
| Dr_willis | Hmm.. darn clock is showing time in 24 hr format still.. | 05:20 |
| Shaddox | nomasteryoda: What is all this? | 05:20 |
| crimsun | Jordan_U: the new bcm43xx driver has been merged in our feisty fit tree. It will not be available in the feisty release. It /may/ ship as in a feisty-updates kernel upload. | 05:20 |
| crimsun | Jordan_U: feisty fit -> feisty git | 05:20 |
| misfit_toy | Dr_willis, mine did that for 2 days after upgrading from edgy then one day fixed itself. | 05:21 |
| diabolix | nomasteryoda, what comand? | 05:21 |
| nomasteryoda | alsamixer | 05:21 |
| Dr_willis | misfit_toy, heh - i never upgraded.. clean install.. | 05:21 |
| Jordan_U | crimsun, What is Feisty-updates exactly? | 05:21 |
| crimsun | Jordan_U: updates for feisty. | 05:21 |
| Dr_willis | misfit_toy, i still think the clock should DEFAULT to 12hr/am/pm format. :) | 05:21 |
| diabolix | nomasteryoda, its not a sound card, its a wireless card. | 05:21 |
| Shaddox | nomasteryoda: I opened alsamixer, but have no idea what any of this is. ^^ | 05:21 |
| Dr_willis | 'for people' heh heh | 05:21 |
| nomasteryoda | oh, ... thought you asked about sound | 05:21 |
| Jordan_U | crimsun, So it will be available in an update? | 05:21 |
| nomasteryoda | sorry that was Shaddox | 05:22 |
| misfit_toy | Dr_willis, me too, but I have coworkers that would disagree, weird. | 05:22 |
| crimsun | Jordan_U: if feisty-updates is a repository containing updates for feisty... | 05:22 |
| diabolix | no. i was wandering if the rtl818x wifi driver made its way into feisty. | 05:22 |
| nomasteryoda | Shaddox, use cursor keys to navigate around and raise levels ... anything with MM is muted | 05:22 |
| Shaddox | nomasteryoda: What is supposed to be unmuted for a game that uses the OSS sound codec to work? | 05:22 |
| Dr_willis | misfit_toy, well the ubuntu mantra is linux for 'people' :) of course i think the clock 'should' see that you changed the time format and auto-change to it.. not have to be restarted (in kde at least) not sur eif gnome does it that way or not | 05:22 |
| Jordan_U | crimsun, Please try not to be condescending | 05:22 |

| Jordan_U | crimsun, I asked if it was gong to be added in an update because I thought that packages were frozen and that only bug fixes were released after Feisty is Final, you have not made it clear weather Fesity-updates is a repository similar to backports or if you are just referring to normal updates to main. | 05:26 |

| nomasteryoda | diabolix, well in that case, could you not just order a nice intel one for about $22 US? | 05:27 |
| nomasteryoda | just a thought | 05:28 |

| Endler | It's good timing for the Windows migration utility. Just about now a lot of people are finding they can't, or just don't want to upgrade to Vista. Exactly how much does it migrate beyond browser bookmarks? | 05:28 |
| crimsun | Jordan_U: the packages are frozen. Updates are not restricted to bugfixes; it depends how invasive - and on the magnitude - of the changes. feisty-updates is for small, non-invasive fixes. feisty-backports is not restricted to small bugfixes. Only feisty-updates is supported. feisty-backports is completely your problem if it hoses something. | 05:28 |

| Endler | The one problem you can have with sharing a /home partition is that during install, some distros just assume that you want your home folder to be the same as your username, and you need to have a different home folder for each distro. To be safe, it is best to just choose a different username for each install and let it create that matching home folder. Then, after install is finished, go back and change the username to the regular | 05:46 |
| Endler | one you always use. The home folder will remain the same though, so you will end up with the same username for each distro, but a different home folder. | 05:46 |

| Pollywog | but why are the sources .3 if there is a stock kernel newer than that? | 06:07 |
| Pollywog | the stock kernel would not run vmware so I had to compile one | 06:08 |
| nomasteryoda | er, there is a way to do that without compiling kernel.... | 06:08 |
| Endler | Anyone tried virtualbox? | 06:08 |
| Pollywog | I ran make prepare-all | 06:08 |
| nomasteryoda | but i'm not sure where i found the solution.... i have vmware workstation here | 06:08 |

| nomasteryoda | dystopianray, i think he's asking because he wants the extra level of support... if they install, then they cover it... right? | 06:31 |
| RAOF | And they install a bunch of other cool stuff for you, too. | 06:31 |
| nomasteryoda | y | 06:31 |

| RAOF | dystopianray: You *are* joking, right? | 08:45 |
| dystopianray | RAOF: no i'm serious, even when you change the gnome colours it still has a brownness to it | 08:46 |
| HorizonXP | hey | 08:46 |
| slackern | What i love about kde is that it has alot of applications and it feels like everything is knitted togheter better. | 08:46 |
| mistone | wut | 08:46 |
| HorizonXP | how can i manually configure my xorg.conf to use two separate X screens? | 08:46 |
| HorizonXP | because my Nvidia-settings doesn't seem to save the config file | 08:46 |
| dystopianray | RAOF: adn i'm talking about vanilla gnome, not ubuntu's brown theme | 08:46 |
| RAOF | slackern: Really? I feel exactly the opposite. | 08:46 |
| RAOF | dystopianray: You've tried some crazy themes, then. My Gnome doesn't have any brown, except for the Ubuntu background. | 08:47 |
| slackern | RAOF, Yes, like kopete and such everything just feels more integrated with the entire desktop or how i should put it | 08:47 |
| sanity_x | eww kopete | 08:47 |
| sanity_x | kopete is like the worst aim client ive ever seen | 08:47 |
| dystopianray | sanityx: aim is the worst im network i ever seen | 08:47 |
| slackern | sanity_x, hehe | 08:47 |
| sanity_x | its SO ugly | 08:47 |
| dystopianray | kopete supports msn and yahoo webcam as well as jingle voice chat over jabber | 08:48 |

| sanity_x | Thats great. Its still ugly. | 08:48 |
| Jordan_U | Is there an equivalent of Edgy's software-properties -e universe / multiverse in Feisty? ( it is very nice for making cut and paste instructions ) | 08:48 |
| RAOF | I like kopete's "iChat" like speech bubble theme. | 08:48 |
| dystopianray | not as ugly as gaim | 08:48 |
| sanity_x | Gaim looks great | 08:48 |
| sanity_x | I love gaim | 08:48 |
| dystopianray | gaim is the definition of ugly | 08:48 |
| sanity_x | sure it is. | 08:48 |
| slackern | rofl | 08:48 |
| HorizonXP | running nvidia-settings in a console | 08:48 |
| HorizonXP | shows that it can't determine valid sync ranges for my laptop's LCD | 08:49 |
| DarkMageZ | gaim is truly the definition of ugly... kopete is prittier... but still fails. | 08:49 |
| sanity_x | Sure it is. | 08:49 |
| kbidd | is beryl build in in 7.04? | 08:49 |
| slackern | But im still new to this kde/gnome business, only way that i could use a linux machine before without going crazy was with windowmaker or fluxbox | 08:49 |
| dystopianray | DarkMageZ: I don't think there are any good multi-network im clients on linux, they're all largely crap | 08:50 |
| slackern | Just being able to browse to another networked machine makes me happy :) | 08:50 |
| sanity_x | i love gaim | 08:50 |
| sanity_x | besides what does windows have? | 08:50 |
| sanity_x | trillian? dont make me laugh | 08:50 |
| slackern | I usually use Miranda in windows | 08:50 |
| sanity_x | Now THAT is an ugly client. | 08:50 |
| sanity_x | And im speaking of miranda. | 08:50 |
| sanity_x | Its far uglier than either gaim or kopete | 08:50 |
| DarkMageZ | dystopianray, gaim is ok. kopete is ok. but they're still ugly | 08:50 |
| slackern | hehe i usually clean it out to the max with black background and green color for online red for offline and orange for dnd and such :) | 08:51 |

| K`zan | Anyone know how to inset a carrage return in a regular expression? | 08:57 |
| RAOF | dystopianray: No idea, but it'll probably be a kernel-level thing. What is the flash component meant to do, anyway? | 08:57 |
| dystopianray | RAOF: afaik it's just another place you can put data | 08:58 |
| dystopianray | RAOF: could be anything from hibernate images to frequently used packages | 08:58 |
| dystopianray | RAOF: and accessing it won't spin up the drive | 08:58 |
| RAOF | Isn't flash substantially slower than HDD? | 08:58 |

| dystopianray | RAOF: it's not supposed to be frequently written to | 08:59 |
| RAOF | I'm still not entirely sure what you'd want to use it for, though. | 09:00 |
| RAOF | Unless you had a *lot* of it, it's probably too small for a hibernate image. | 09:01 |
| dystopianray | RAOF: they'er planning on putting 1GB or more on the drives | 09:01 |
| RAOF | Ok, so that's a lot :) | 09:01 |
| dystopianray | RAOF: it's supposed to be faster than the hdd itself, so bootup file could be on it and speed up the boot process | 09:01 |

| dystopianray | RAOF: yes, but i'm curious if ubuntu devs have any plans for it | 09:08 |
| RAOF | Probably not, particularly since it's not available yet :) | 09:08 |
| RAOF | There are fewer core Ubuntu devs than people think :) | 09:08 |

| BadRabbit320 | ok, noted and will do that. | 10:27 |
| dystopianray | BadRabbit320: right click the clock 'show timezone -> configure timezones' select a timezone that would be past 12:00 then middle click the clock | 10:27 |

| dystopianray | pardon? | 10:28 |
| BadRabbit320 | thank | 10:28 |
| dystopianray | it doesn't change your computer's timezone, kde's clock can display multiple timezones, middle clicking rotates between the display zones | 10:28 |

| {uX}l`VampyrCeil | oh, and just a question, but why does 7.04 have stuff on the desktop? :x | 11:48 |
| {uX}l`VampyrCeil | i don't remember 6.10 having that stuff on install | 11:48 |
| dystopianray | {uX}l`VampyrCeil: what is it? | 11:48 |
| stefg | Mithrandir: we'd need some plausibility checking. If the UUID can't be found,it must be 'guessed' by the boot process. you can always edit your bootline to something like /dev/sda1, but entering a UUID is impossible | 11:48 |

| {uX}l`VampyrCeil | no worries | 11:51 |
| Mithrandir | tapas: sure, if you prefer labels, you're free to use that. | 11:51 |
| stefg | Mithrandir: so the installer already builds an fstab, and any live distro can autocreate an fstab. what about a dead simple solution, like placing a semaphore in the root of each partiton (root holds a .root 0 byte file, /home holds a .home... and so on) | 11:51 |

| XVampireX | dystopianray: Maybe because you use gnome it's not faster for you, but I tried gnome on ubuntu too and it worked pretty fast, faster than on Edgy. I am using Kubuntu Feisty Fawn right now, and just like many others, I'm not the only one with an increased performance "feeling" | 12:33 |
| dystopianray | XVampireX: I don't use gnome | 12:33 |
| dystopianray | XVampireX: I am also using kubuntu | 12:33 |
| XVampireX | Even one of the people ASKED me, before I could tell him, that feisty is faster... | 12:33 |
| Mithrandir | XVampireX: speaking about performance without actually measuring it is pointless. | 12:34 |
| XVampireX | "Didn't you notice the performance increase" or something like that | 12:34 |
| dystopianray | I suspect it's a case of it feeling faster becuase you want it to be faster | 12:34 |
| XVampireX | Mithrandir: As pointless as living for you | 12:34 |
| XVampireX | What the f? | 12:34 |
| XVampireX | Even beryl in many different effects worked sluggish for me | 12:34 |
| XVampireX | now I'm using it... and everything is working fine. | 12:35 |

| XVampireX | and that others don't know what they are talking about | 12:36 |
| gnomefreak | XVampireX: just stop please and i didnt see him insullt you. | 12:36 |
| XVampireX | The person who mentioned it first is also a game programmer | 12:36 |
| XVampireX | So you're denying someone who KNOWS, that it's faster. | 12:36 |
| mc44 | XVampireX: no, we are saying you should stop making personal attacks | 12:37 |

| dystopianray | meng: chmod -w /etc/resolv.conf | 12:38 |
| Mithrandir | XVampireX: I'm telling you to measure, I'm not saying you're wrong or right. | 12:38 |

| mellow_bunny | it saddens me that i still cling to windows for adobe | 12:53 |
| jrib | stefg: yes, but the number of seconds since unix epoch must be 0 modulo 77 so you have to do it at the right time | 12:54 |

| neonlinux | umm... will e17 look better in feisty release? lol | 01:03 |
| PriceChild | The best thing about Feisty is that it marks the beginning of Gutsy | 01:03 |
| dystopianray | for gutsy they should replace the human theme with one called 'simian' | 01:03 |

| jrib | mc44: ubuntu will just add new letters to the alphabet at that point | 01:09 |

| freshmouse | (I do the upgrade by apt-get, but I also download the CD.) | 01:32 |
| apokryphos | !upgrade | 01:32 |
| ubotu | For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes | 01:32 |
| Patrick_ | dystopianray, will there be a fix available for tomorrow do you think | 01:32 |
| stefg | jrib: so i booted the desktop CD... is there a way to either boot already from an iso, or at least push the .iso-image to installer, so that it won't use the physical drive? | 01:32 |
| dystopianray | Patrick_: no | 01:32 |

| Patrick_ | dystopianray, never | 01:32 |
| freshmouse | On my PC, I do the upgrade over PC, but I need the CD for anyone. | 01:33 |
| jrib | stefg: hmm so you are doing a fresh install instead of an upgrade? | 01:33 |

| freshmouse | On my PC, I do the upgrade over _apt-get_ | 01:33 |
| _4strO | freshmouse: ? | 01:34 |
| Patrick_ | dystopianray, I wont have to wait long I hope, strangely my wifi card started working today so who knows | 01:34 |
| stefg | jrib: yup, that's my point. i have a half broken feisty install on my playground. this will be overwritten with a fresh install now | 01:34 |
| mc44 | freshmouse: you shouldnt use apt-get to upgrade to a new release | 01:34 |

| stefg | all i want to know if it's possible to make casper use an .iso instead of a physical drive | 01:34 |
| freshmouse | _4strO: typing error | 01:34 |
| kjetilk_ | Mithrandir: ok, this is a Compal, BTW (I was unlucky enough to buy from whitebox as they went belly-up) | 01:35 |
| Mithrandir | kjetilk_: ugh; never liked that company.. | 01:35 |
| jrib | stefg: ah that seems more difficult. What desktop cd is this? | 01:35 |
| Mithrandir | stefg: no, but if you put /casper on a vfat partition, that'll work. | 01:35 |
| freshmouse | mc44: OK, it is not important. | 01:36 |
| kjetilk_ | Mithrandir: yeah, but they were one of the few that would sell without windows... | 01:36 |
| _4strO | freshmouse: well , what is the pb ? | 01:36 |
| stefg | ok... lets forget that for a moment... but any knoppix flavour can do that for ages: just pass 'fromhd=dev/hdc7' and it will look in the rootdir for the.iso and use that. I'll make that a feature request | 01:37 |
| freshmouse | _4strO: There is no problem. :-) I just want to know if the CD could be changed before final release (4/19). | 01:37 |
| Mithrandir | kjetilk_: best I can offer is asking you to file a bug about it. | 01:37 |
| mc44 | freshmouse: yes it could be. | 01:37 |

| nomasteryoda | as for the power button, might want to use Ctrl+Alt+SysRq (under printscrn button) +K for sync and kill processes.. then same but "b" isntead of k | 02:15 |
| nomasteryoda | safer way to reboot hung system | 02:16 |
| shawn34 | Patrick_, don't do that | 02:16 |
| Patrick_ | ok | 02:16 |
| Patrick_ | then what could be causing this problem | 02:16 |
| shawn34 | Patrick_, you could switch to another terminal and restart from command line, or restart the gdm | 02:16 |
| nomasteryoda | not if you can't switch to another term | 02:16 |
| shawn34 | its happened to me before | 02:17 |
| nomasteryoda | i've seen this work well with kdm... it kills the hung kdm, then restarts it .. similar to the ctrl+alt+bkspc | 02:17 |
| Patrick_ | it happens everytime | 02:17 |
| nomasteryoda | sounds like acpi hangs | 02:17 |
| Patrick_ | is there a solution | 02:18 |

| CarinArr | Patrick_: have you tried rebooting with acpi off? | 02:20 |
| CarinArr | see if it does the same | 02:20 |

| meal3837 | it's "fixed," at least so that you can get feisty installed, but the ICH8 southbridge doesn't include PATA support, and the 2.6.17 kernel didn't like a lot of the 3rd party PATA controllers that were put on these boards | 02:46 |

| Exien | Hi, I have a quick question because I'm not sure if my problem is with Feisty but for some reason my wlan messes up sometimes. First let me explain my set up. I have a Broadcom wireless card installed with ndiswraper 1.9. I can connect to the wireless network fine, and I can use the internet fine. The problem is that sometimes, I'm not sure how or why it won't connect to local hosts (such as 192.168.1.XXX) and then other times it won't resolve any domain na | 03:31 |
| Exien | mes (such as google.com) and I have to restart for the issue to be fixed. Would this be an issue with Feisty? It never happened to me with Edgy so that's why I'm wondering. Thanks | 03:31 |
| Turgon | I have Ubuntu 6.10 right now. If I download the live CD to test if Feisty works for me, can I use the CD to upgrade from it? If I can, I suppose it is done by adding the CD to "Software Origins", in the "Other providers" tab, isn't it? | 03:31 |
| maddler | btw... even using Upgrade Manager I won't get anithing about a new release | 03:31 |

| ferret_0568 | Yes | 03:35 |
| Exien | ferret_0568, From what I understand that takes you to the ubuntu network configuration tool which changes the interfaces file... and if I understand correctly nm-applet does not work off of this file | 03:35 |
| Exien | ferret_0568, So manually configuring it will not work with nm-applet | 03:35 |
| Exien | ferret_0568, I could be wrong but thats what I understood. So if you manually configured it you will have to set your essid with iwconfig and use dhclient to get an IP | 03:36 |
| ferret_0568 | Well...NetworkManager is supposed to control ath0, but if nm-applet says manual config...then shouldn't NetworkManager give the interface up? | 03:36 |
| === stefg [n=chatzill@e179144024.adsl.alicedsl.de] has joined #ubuntu+1 | ||
| Exien | ferret_0568, And nm-applet will not be able to manage it. (I don't know why it lets you do it if that is the case) | 03:36 |
| Exien | ferret_0568, Well, if you have the interface in your interfaces file nm-applet will probably not recognize it when you restart or reload the applet | 03:36 |
| Exien | ferret_0568, But I'm not completely sure.. If you manually configure it you have to get it up all the way yourself I think | 03:37 |

| Lurky2000 | I actually managed to get my WiFi with WPA to work | 06:21 |
| Lurky2000 | amazing :) | 06:21 |
| Dr_willis | i just had to install nvidia-glx, or nvidia-glx-new, and edit the nv line to be 'nvidia' :) | 06:21 |
| crdlb | Lurky2000, I guess fglrx is your only choice | 06:21 |
| pollywog_ | yes but that is the same problem I have] | 06:22 |
| Dr_willis | NOW it did mess up when it made the xconfig itself however. so i had to fix that. | 06:22 |
| crdlb | if the free drivers are being slow | 06:22 |
| pollywog_ | nvidia driver won't work, nv works | 06:22 |
| jonah | ok guys, and when i use photoshop or whatever in xp, how do i save files across to ubuntu? | 06:22 |
| Lurky2000 | so how do I get that then? just use apt-get? | 06:22 |
| crdlb | I can run google earth fine on my 7500 so something is wrong | 06:22 |
| crdlb | Lurky2000, this is the right guide: | 06:22 |
| crdlb | !ati | 06:22 |
| ubotu | To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 06:22 |
| superkirbyartist | !ubotu | 06:22 |
| ubotu | I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots | 06:22 |
| stdin | Dr_willis: I had to edit the /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.20-(VERSION)-generic/include/linux/version.h file to have "#define UTS_RELEASE "2.6.20-(VERSION)-generic" " for it to work here (replacing (VERSION) with the release number) | 06:22 |
| Dr_willis | nvidia drivers seem to work here.. Nvidia 6800 and a 5500 in othe rmachine. | 06:22 |
| superkirbyartist | !bob | 06:22 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about bob - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi | 06:22 |
| superkirbyartist | !feisty | 06:23 |
| ubotu | The next version of Ubuntu (7.04; codenamed "Feisty Fawn") should be released in April 2007.

| aaroncampbell | Dr_willis: I use VMWare Workstation, and it seems you MUST use version 6 (beta) with feisty...which also seems to be unstable. | 06:36 |
| aaroncampbell | At first I thought it was Beryl causing freezing, but as it turns out, I can run Beryl for days and days as long as I don't have Workstation running | 06:36 |
| pollywog_ | I am running kernel 2.6.17 in Feisty and vmware works | 06:37 |

| pollywog_ | is the fix to use nv? | 06:45 |
| zerothis | if upgrading to feisty is a disaster on my system. is it easy to undo? | 06:45 |
| pollywog_ | I think trying to undo it could be a secondary disaster | 06:46 |
| pollywog_ | if you run vmware or nvidia I advise against the upgrade | 06:46 |
| pollywog_ | and if you run Samba, remove it before the upgrade | 06:46 |
| pollywog_ | and install it after the upgrade is done | 06:47 |
| aaroncampbell | pollywog_: no, basically, you download the drivers from nVidia, extract them rather than install them, grab the files you need... | 06:47 |
| pollywog_ | aaroncampbell: oic | 06:47 |
| spheard | um, trying to upgrade using update-manage-core but couldnt find package........ | 06:47 |
| aaroncampbell | I'm looking for the link, but I have so many launchpad links in my history :| | 06:47 |

| pollywog_ | Dual booting is a hassle unless it is for playing a game | 06:54 |

| mewt | Hi, I just upgraded to feisty and i have the following problem..after i restart, xserver wont load and says that there is a version mismatch between the nvidia kernel module and the driver | 08:12 |
| mewt | i have 9755 version | 08:12 |
| knix__ | mewt, new header files? | 08:12 |
| knix__ | mewt, uname -r | 08:12 |
| jonah | ok guys, and when i use photoshop or whatever in xp, how do i save files across to ubuntu? | 08:12 |
| GNu_Joe | newt, did you enable the restriced drivers? | 08:12 |
| jonah | from vmware i mean | 08:12 |
| aldin | jonah: www.fs-driver-org | 08:12 |
| dystopianray | jonah: you can't | 08:12 |
| aldin | if ur ubuntu is ext3 | 08:13 |
| mewt | mewt@tehgraveyard:~$ uname -r | 08:13 |
| mewt | 2.6.20-15-generic | 08:13 |
| mewt | but if i reinstall the driver | 08:13 |
| mewt | it works fine | 08:13 |
| netmon1 | Is there a specific time Feisty will launch | 08:13 |
| mewt | after a restart it comes back to the erro | 08:13 |
| dystopianray | jonah: but you should be able to mount the vmware partition in feisty and grab the file out | 08:13 |
| dystopianray | jonah: or you may be able to share files with the vm over smb | 08:13 |
| knix__ | mewt, im not sure | 08:13 |
| GNu_Joe | mewt, I installed the nvidia-new driver and it fix my issue BTW | 08:13 |
| BluesKaj | GNu_Joe, nfts-3g , install it and you will have read/write access to your windows partition | 08:13 |
| mc44 | netmon1: nope | 08:13 |
| mewt | so i should uninstall the one i manually installed | 08:14 |
| mewt | and install nvidia-glx-new ? | 08:14 |
| GNu_Joe | BluesKaj, wrong person | 08:14 |
| knix__ | I upgraded to feisty server and now it wont boot all the way, it hangs at local boot scripts. Any idea how to fix this? | 08:14 |
| mewt | if i recall well the problem still remained there when i tried it :S | 08:14 |
| Angeluz | knix__: Does it say "Loading files needed to boot"? | 08:14 |
| GNu_Joe | mewt just install the one with -new that will figure out what to un-install | 08:14 |

| Mithrandir | Laney: To the best of my knowledge, it's not possible to run it outside of the installer. It sounds like a useful feature, though. | 08:56 |
| Shentino | Can I install ubuntu with only 32 MB of ram? | 08:56 |
| conn | Mithrandir, on my oldest system with 196mb ram, the livecd never worked correctly, but a recent daily livecd booted much faster than usual and installed in a reasonable amount of time (30 mins altogether)... will the final release try to use swap? | 08:56 |
| ravi_ | yeah... all of this is Open source, can someone point me to the source code of the installer? | 08:56 |
| Angeluz | Shentino: 64 is the minimum amount of ram, as far as I remember. | 08:57 |
| Mithrandir | ravi_: apt-get source ubiquity or bzr branch http://launchpad.net/ubiquity/ | 08:57 |
| mstrzele | ravi_: search ubiquity on packages.ubuntu.com and download .tar.gz archive | 08:57 |

| Mithrandir | conn: yes, it'll try, but there's a race condition there so it might unfortunately not work correctly or not work correctly in all cases, even on the same machine. | 08:58 |
| concept10 | Shentino, what kind of processor is it? | 08:58 |
| Mithrandir | conn: I'll try to get it fixed for gutsy, but so much to do, so little time. | 08:58 |

| Shentino | and I don't mind working in console | 09:01 |

| warior | there is also a second problem ... I can find wofo but i cant connect to it :( | 09:08 |
| lupine_85 | P166 would be fine for an fbdev system | 09:08 |
| Shentino | but I'm happy so long is doesn't freeze or crash. | 09:08 |
| Angeluz | warior: Change the Encoding in mplayers preferences window. | 09:08 |
| Shentino | my standards are pretty low | 09:08 |
| lupine_85 | it might even be able to do vanilla X | 09:08 |
| warior | Angeluz i have already | 09:08 |
| concept10 | Shentino, is that the only box you use? | 09:08 |
| Shentino | it's the only box I have | 09:08 |
| Shentino | in one piece | 09:08 |
| Shentino | so, um yeah. | 09:08 |
| lupine_85 | to install, you just need to get into the terminal (alt+f2) as early as possible and enable swap | 09:08 |
| Tomg | does anyone have aiglx working on a radeon 9800? | 09:09 |
| Shentino | ok, good | 09:09 |
| Id2ndR | Hi everybody, do you know how to ship Ubuntu CD's of feisty for a LUG ? | 09:09 |
| lupine_85 | I did it on a P133 + 32MB RAM once | 09:09 |
| lupine_85 | alternate CD, of course | 09:09 |
| Shentino | and will it run a AVB USB 2.0 flash drive running through a VIA USB Controller, without instantly slowing down? | 09:09 |
| concept10 | Shentino, dude, where do you live ? I'll give you a box | 09:09 |

| Tomg | Angeluz: should, but im getting major gfx corruption, just wondered if anone had the same problem | 09:10 |
| shirish | ok guys can anybody help me to know what HAL is? | 09:10 |
| Shentino | my guess is Hardware Abstraction Layer | 09:10 |
| lupine_85 | yep | 09:10 |
| Angeluz | Tomg: Like? | 09:10 |
| lupine_85 | Shentino: USB shouldn't slow it down at all | 09:10 |
| shirish | Shentino: ok it says failed to initialize HAL | 09:10 |
| Angeluz | Maybe your resolution is too high, Tomg? | 09:11 |
| shirish | Angeluz: are u talking to me or to Tomg? | 09:11 |
| Shaddox | shirish: HAL is the Hardware Abstraction Layer. I think it's responsible for mounting removable media, and making sure everything works inside the GNOME desktop environment. | 09:11 |
| sine | hey shirish! | 09:12 |
| sine | that seems to be a kernel bug | 09:12 |
| Angeluz | I'm talking to Tomg. ;) | 09:12 |
| shirish | sine:hi, have we meet before? | 09:12 |
| Shaddox | shirish: Then again, all I know for sure is that it's the Hardware Abstraction Layer, ^^ | 09:12 |
| sine | i upgraded my 20-15 kernel via dist-upgrade | 09:12 |
| sine | then it worked | 09:12 |
| sine | try that :) | 09:12 |
| shirish | ok lemme describe what happened maybe somebody knows what happened or what i need to do | 09:13 |
| Shaddox | I'm on the generic kernel but having no problems, hell, since this morning even my wireless is behaving right! :D | 09:13 |
| shirish | I was playing this game called memonix which crashed my gdm (blank screen) can't get to any of the tty's | 09:13 |
| Shentino | ctrl-alt-backspace? | 09:13 |
| shirish | Shentino tried CTRL+ALT+F1-F6 | 09:14 |
| shirish | Shentino: I was in Gnome, metacity playing this game memonix | 09:14 |
| Shentino | hmmm | 09:14 |
| shirish | Shentino: so did the magic keys things, with ALT+SYS RQ + s , then u & then finally b (to reboot) | 09:15 |
| shirish | Shentino: again tried via the -15 kernel didn't work, again blank screen | 09:16 |
| shirish | Shentino: then went to -12 didn't work, after GDM login again black screen | 09:16 |
| Shentino | hmmm... | 09:16 |
| Shentino | did you try the sysrq "terminate all" thing? | 09:16 |
| shirish | Shentino: what is sysrq "terminate all" thing? | 09:17 |
| Shentino | it SIGTERM's everything but init | 09:17 |
| shirish | how does one do that? | 09:17 |
| warior | when i tried to play avi in toten it writes out Internal data flow error. | 09:17 |
| Shentino | alt-sysrq-T | 09:17 |
| Shentino | I think... | 09:17 |
| Shentino | check the sysrq help message (alt-sysrq-h) | 09:17 |
| Shentino | if it refuses to die, try (kill all) | 09:17 |

| Angeluz | Is an off-ubuntu-question allowed here? | 09:19 |
| Shaddox | Angeluz: What's the question? | 09:19 |
| shirish | Shentino: my sysrq shares screen with print screen | 09:19 |
| Pici | Depends on what the question is. | 09:20 |
| Pici | shirish: Alt-printscrn invokes sysrq | 09:20 |
| Angeluz | Is there a huge difference between Sin City in the cinema-version and the Extended Recut? ;) | 09:20 |
| Pici | Angeluz: #ubuntu-offtopic ;) And I have no idea. | 09:20 |
| Shaddox | Angeluz: Extended recuts suck, in my opinion. People shouldn't mess with the movies. | 09:21 |
| Angeluz | Alright, thanks. | 09:21 |
| Angeluz | Pici: Good to know. ;o) | 09:21 |
| shirish | pici: I have a button labelled print screen as well as sysrq below it | 09:21 |
| shirish | doing alt+print screen (sys RQ) + h invokes multiple save screenshots dialogs | 09:22 |
| Pici | shirish: Yes, as do I. Pressing alt+printscrn on a keyboard that has printscreen and sysrq on the same key means sysrq. | 09:22 |
| Shaddox | My printscreen is Fn+Ins, my sysrq is Fn+Del, it's freaky. ^^ | 09:22 |
| Shaddox | im not used to laptops though | 09:23 |
| Shaddox | only had one for a year | 09:23 |

| Shaddox | Kind of | 09:29 |
| Shaddox | SIGTERM will only terminate the process | 09:29 |
| Shaddox | If it's waiting for user input, or not responding, SIGKILL will do nothing. | 09:30 |
| Shaddox | er, SIGTERM* | 09:30 |
| shirish | so do I drop down to a prompt or something? | 09:30 |

| mirak | is launchpad not open sourced because they want to add distributed features in it, so each project could have is datas on it's own server, and the datas would be available and easily linkable to everyone ? | 09:55 |

| mirak | mc44 thoreauputic that's what I think, but I am discussing with mandriva people that don't want to understand that, and think they should have the right to take the sources and fork it if they want. | 09:59 |

| Stoffer | stefg: the 6.10 installed confused me w/ making me go into manual partitioning | 10:01 |

| === seraphim_ [n=seraphim@e179143180.adsl.alicedsl.de] has joined #ubuntu+1 | ||
| mips | Stoffer, as per stefg. Just install windows first and leave space available after the windows partition. Install Ubuntu to the free space and it will take care of the rest | 10:02 |
| mirak | thoreauputic: could they be reassured of using launchpad if they can have exports of the database, (and not open source it) | 10:02 |
| Stoffer | mips: will that allow windows to read the data? I want a separate shared partition for files | 10:02 |
| thoreauputic | mirak: I don't know enough to answer questions about launchpad, to be honest | 10:03 |
| stefg | Stoffer: you need preferably unpartitoned space, not just one big partiton with space /on/ it. ntfs resizing is possible, but i'd avoid it | 10:03 |
| === mstrzele [n=maciej@87-205-79-6.adsl.inetia.pl] has joined #ubuntu+1 | ||

| Stoffer | I want ubuntu in the 20 and the 200 for shared files | 10:03 |
| mips | Stoffer then you need to create 3 partitions 1-windows 2-Ubunt 3-/home or data. But windows can read linux filesystem if you use the ext2fs driver in windows | 10:04 |
| Korgmatose | partition the 200G fat32 then.. | 10:04 |
| stefg | Stoffer: good... so you'll need a swap part, too... 512 MB will do | 10:04 |
| === greig_ [n=greig@80-192-68-252.cable.ubr03.linl.blueyonder.co.uk] has joined #ubuntu+1 | ||
| Korgmatose | mips, only if ext3 is cleanly unmounted (something I learned bitterly with the 2.6.20.24 kernel sda-failures | 10:04 |
| mips | Stoffer, then install ubuntu to the 20gb and make the 200gb your /home partition. You will have to do manual partitioning with the installer | 10:05 |
| Stoffer | so should /home be fat32 or ext3? | 10:05 |
| void^ | definitely NOT fat32. | 10:06 |
| Korgmatose | perhaps not if it' supposed to be /home, no | 10:07 |
| Stoffer | so use the ext2fs driver to let windows read th ext3 /home parition? | 10:07 |
| Stoffer | don't programs usually install into the /home directory? | 10:07 |
| void^ | no. | 10:07 |
| Mithrandir | I'd rather have a /media/shared drive which is fat32, but that might just be me. | 10:08 |
| Stoffer | hmm...well then maybe I was doing it wrong w/ gentoo... | 10:08 |
| Stoffer | Mithrandir: that sounds like what I"m looking for | 10:08 |
| Stoffer | does /home have to be a separate partition, or can it be in the same partition as the rest of ubuntu? | 10:09 |
| mips | Stoffer, In my scenario I have two identical drives on each of them I have a 100gb data partion, one is mounted as /home and the other can be anything,. this way I mirror my data across two drives | 10:09 |
| kabtoffe | Stoffer: no it doesn't | 10:09 |
| kabtoffe | Stoffer: especially if you plan to keep your files on a fat32 partition | 10:09 |
| Stoffer | so what would be the drawback of having a /media/shared formatted w/ fat32 ? | 10:10 |
| Stoffer | that would be easier for windows to read, right? | 10:10 |
| kabtoffe | Stoffer: no files larger than 2 gb | 10:10 |
| Stoffer | oh | 10:10 |
| Stoffer | well forget about that then | 10:10 |
