It is not in the Ubuntu repos for Feisty Fawn, but add your name to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WaitingForNvuFeisty to be notified when packages are available. See also !html. | 01:51 |

| domenic | i tried doing it this way before | 02:18 |
| domenic | "Click Applications Add/Remove." is the first instruction on this page | 02:18 |
| domenic | but where exactly is this "applications" | 02:18 |
| Jester45 | so i want to ssh into a winxp system and i have a few questions, first how could i figure out the hostname.domainname suff | 02:18 |
| Jester45 | domenic: they are meaning the menu | 02:19 |
| xjkx | TheSheep: the mozilla i have is the mozilla that comes in xubuntu, and its a script that calls firefox, and firefox has no composer ;o | 02:19 |
| Jester45 | with the name Applications | 02:19 |
| xjkx | mozilla -> /etc/alternatives/mozilla | 02:19 |
| xjkx | its a link | 02:19 |
| Jester45 | domenic: bottom left corner | 02:19 |
| Jester45 | and the other question i have is can i get "X forwarding" with windows or is it only cli, i know windows doesnt have X | 02:20 |
| xjkx | !composer | 02:20 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about composer - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi | 02:20 |

| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about mozilla - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi | 02:20 |
| Jester45 | domenic: menu -> system -> add/remove | 02:20 |
| domenic | there is also no add/remove in system | 02:21 |
| Jester45 | domenic: and w32codecs is not in the *ubuntu repo, so you have to get it else ware but it linked to a package so apt knows about it | 02:22 |
| Jester45 | domenic: what version of xubuntu | 02:22 |
| domenic | xfce 4.2 | 02:23 |
| Jester45 | so, feisty then | 02:23 |
| domenic | yup, the newest release | 02:24 |
| Jester45 | it should be there | 02:24 |
| Jester45 | you must of messed with the system menu.xml | 02:25 |
| domenic | i just re-installed xubuntu | 02:25 |
| domenic | is there anothe way to bring up the Add/Remove app | 02:27 |
| Jester45 | yea but i dont know the name for the add/remove | 02:28 |
| Jester45 | you could use any other package manager like aptitude and synaptic | 02:29 |
| domenic | i use synaptic | 02:30 |
| domenic | where do i go from there | 02:30 |
| Jester45 | idk depends on what your wanting | 02:32 |
| domenic | Click Applications Add/Remove. In the top right, change the setting to All available applications. Then select Other in the left panel and then select the Ubuntu restricted extras package. Click OK. | 02:34 |
| Jester45 | no like what are you trying to use | 02:36 |
| domenic | an mp3 file | 02:36 |
| Jester45 | on what player | 02:37 |
| domenic | xfmedia | 02:37 |
| Jester45 | that i think would be libxine-dirty but i will look | 02:37 |
| Pumpernickel | libxine1-ffmpeg | 02:39 |
| Jester45 | i dont see the restricted extras | 02:39 |
| Jester45 | there you go | 02:39 |
| Jester45 | idk what i was thinking | 02:39 |
| Jester45 | Pumpernickel: do you know package close to what i said | 02:40 |
| Pumpernickel | Maybe the 'ugly' set of gstreamer plugins. | 02:41 |
| domenic | i couldnt find that package | 02:41 |
| Jester45 | yea thats it | 02:42 |
| domenic | i used synaptic and terminal command apt | 02:42 |
| Jester45 | well i was kinda close | 02:42 |
| Pumpernickel | libxine1-ffmpeg is for Feisty. If you're on an earlier release, you'd need libxine-extracodecs. | 02:44 |
| domenic | that package also does not appear | 02:46 |
| Pumpernickel | Then you haven't enabled the universe repository. | 02:47 |

| whamazoom | hello | 05:48 |
| cellofellow | !ask | 05:48 |
| ubotu | Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :) | 05:48 |
| cellofellow | WaxyFresh: do you have XFCE too? | 05:49 |
| WaxyFresh | yup | 05:49 |
| cellofellow | sound works in there? | 05:49 |
| whamazoom | I have tried about 20 distros, ubuntu being my fav. since wifi works.. :D but im trying to install gnome2 on a fresh freebsd install....and I think I want to try xubuntu to play with? any thoughts? | 05:49 |
| cellofellow | what sound card is it? use lspci | 05:50 |
| TheSheep | whamazoom: good idea, try it and see if you like it | 05:50 |
| cellofellow | whamazoom: xubuntu is really fun to play with. Enough of a desktop to be fun in that regard, but sparce enough to be geeky. | 05:50 |
| whamazoom | Will any linux apps work with xfce? | 05:50 |
| cellofellow | Fun for a geek who likes to get down and dirty. | 05:50 |
| TheSheep | whamazoom: yes, as well as with gnome or kde | 05:51 |
| cellofellow | sometimes KDE apps look downright out of place | 05:51 |
| whamazoom | nice, cus I think I jumped in way over my head with freebsd | 05:51 |
| cellofellow | maybe you should have tried PC-BSD. | 05:51 |
| TheSheep | whamazoom: well, bsd is not linux | 05:52 |
| whamazoom | tried that too, didnt recognice my wifi | 05:52 |
| TheSheep | whamazoom: xubuntu uses the same files as ubuntu under the hood, so it should work | 05:52 |
| whamazoom | had to do some kldload if_ath0 and a bunch of other junk, still didnt work to great | 05:52 |
| cellofellow | you probably have less drivers for BSD than Linux, especially on wireless. (Unless you can use Mac drivers. Can you?) | 05:52 |
| whamazoom | mac drivers...im unsure | 05:53 |
| cellofellow | Mac's under-the-hood system Darwin is FreeBSD/Mach (like GNU/Linux). | 05:53 |

| whamazoom | ahh, i dont use mac's | 05:54 |
| cellofellow | that's ok. I was just thinking about drivers. Probably not seeing as it's different kernels. | 05:54 |
| WaxyFresh | cellofellow: lspci didint come up with it i think can i pm you the results?pastebin takes a while due to the slowness of my computer | 05:55 |
| whamazoom | its an atheros card, which is pretty much supported | 05:55 |
| WaxyFresh | or can i post 6-7 lines in here? | 05:55 |
| cellofellow | WaxyFresh: sure | 05:55 |
| Jester45 | anyone know of a ssh connectable proxy | 05:55 |
| WaxyFresh | get it? | 05:56 |
| Jester45 | nope | 05:56 |
| AlexC | how do i change the home folder of a user in the console? | 05:56 |
| TheSheep | WaxyFresh: on freenode you have to register your nick to be able to pm | 05:56 |
| cellofellow | WaxyFresh: yikes, it's like you don't have a sound card. maybe lspci -v or lsusb (it might be usb for all I know. or lspcmcia too.) | 05:56 |
| WaxyFresh | cellofellow: this extra one came up with sudo | 05:57 |
| TheSheep | AlexC: what do you mean? | 05:57 |

| cellofellow | and AGP bridge is just part of the motherboard. | 05:57 |
| WaxyFresh | cellofellow: its on bored,would that mean it could still be a usb/pcmcia? | 05:57 |
| TheSheep | AlexC: you can edit /etc/passwd if that's what you mean | 05:58 |
| AlexC | thesheep, i changed the home folder of one of the users and now it won't log in properly, how do i change the users home dir back? | 05:58 |

| predaeus | kiosk, I am not sure what is going on there, as far as I know flash is at version 9 already now. | 09:49 |
| predaeus | try removing the plugin or just install the repository version over it (maybe not a clean way of doing so). | 09:49 |

| kiosk | didn't know it was 64 bit | 09:53 |
| jgamio | jgamio: ok not problem | 09:54 |
| predaeus | kiosk, I think you should be fine installing the repository version over it. (but mind that this is not very clean and could bring problems) if you want to try this just "sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree" | 09:55 |

| predaeus | kiosk, the 64bit ubuntu/xubuntu won't run on a 32bit system. so you don't have that installed if you have a 32bit system. but if you don't know what system you've got we need to check :-) | 10:00 |

| XZC | (DVD burner) | 11:16 |
| mrynit | is that your max speed? | 11:16 |
| XZC | Yes | 11:16 |
| Gerro | XZC: nero sucks use a different one, isorecorder works for me | 11:16 |
| aboyousif | Gerro, sorry i thought it is you who face bad cd :) | 11:16 |
| XZC | Gerro no other CD havebeen corrupt | 11:17 |
| XZC | I just did open the iso file with nero andburned :P | 11:17 |
| aboyousif | XZC, you should check the iso file before burning it .. | 11:17 |
| Gerro | XZC: nero has hit and miss cd corruption when burning iso files. think its mainly older versions | 11:17 |
| mrynit | http://www.deepburner.com/ this is free and is what i used to burn linux iso | 11:17 |
| XZC | Ok | 11:17 |
| aboyousif | XZC, deepburner is the one .. | 11:17 |
| mrynit | i never burn at max speed | 11:17 |
| Gerro | yeah I think I tried that deepburner before... couldn't figure it out | 11:17 |
| XZC | I do, but 16 is slow | 11:18 |
| mrynit | for dvd? | 11:18 |
| Gerro | I usually do 12 | 11:18 |
| XZC | max with my DVD burner, max onDVD burnign is 8x | 11:18 |
| aboyousif | XZC, slow ? you don't burn 15 cd / day | 11:18 |
| mrynit | i burn at 40x when max is 48x | 11:18 |
| XZC | aboyousif ofc not but | 11:18 |
| Gerro | overclocking your nero burning app, ah fun stuff :) | 11:19 |
| XZC | lol | 11:19 |
| aboyousif | XZC, the 16x will only take 15~20 min | 11:19 |
| mrynit | i thought you said 16x for dvd | 11:19 |
| XZC | It took 5 min to burn Ubuntu | 11:19 |
| mrynit | 600 mb @ 16x in 5 min? | 11:20 |
| aboyousif | XZC, i have 52X writer and i usually burn on 16 | 11:20 |

| aboyousif | Gerro, it not encrypt the password string so any one can see it if he has access | 12:07 |
| Gerro | aboyousif: probably missing a perl plugin to handle that feature, usually a problem with mail transfer things | 12:08 |
| aboyousif | Gerro, or it supposed to work like that .. | 12:08 |
| Gerro | most likely not | 12:09 |
| Gerro | this similar program i was using to check my email wouldn't do **** for password unless I had the specific perl module | 12:09 |
| Gerro | you actually ever go to CPAN and update that stuff? | 12:10 |
| Gerro | lot of kool programming goodies | 12:10 |
| aboyousif | Gerro, i don't do perl .. and i don't understand how this relates to perl | 12:10 |
| Gerro | aboyousif: C++ and perl make up almost everything in linux | 12:10 |
| Gerro | so probably just a missing dependency | 12:11 |
| aboyousif | Gerro, nvm i will not use it anymore | 12:11 |
| Gerro | unlike C++, perl is usually not compiled | 12:11 |
| Gerro | aboyousif: sorry if I'm not of much help :( I'll see if I can check that program out later okay | 12:12 |

| Whamazoom | Would you all reccommend Xubuntu Vs. FreeBSD + xfce? | 05:11 |
| Whamazoom | for a beginner! | 05:11 |
| Howdy125 | Xubuntu | 05:12 |
| Whamazoom | good, beacuse I have been porting Gnome2 onto a freebsd install for over 12 hours now....im getting tired of this BSD lol :D | 05:13 |
| Howdy125 | I'm using Xubuntu and I love it .. | 05:14 |
| Whamazoom | but would you say I would gain no advantages to installing a minimal debian, and apt-get installing xfce Vs. just popping in Xubuntu? | 05:14 |
| Howdy125 | All of the buntu's have more up to date packages than debian | 05:15 |
| Whamazoom | oh?! | 05:16 |
| === BlueEagle [n=blueeagl@ti541210a340-1724.bb.online.no] has joined #Xubuntu | ||
| Pumpernickel | Not really. Debian releases are behind Ubuntu releases for package versions, but they'll have newer stuff in testing. | 05:17 |
| Pumpernickel | Also, doesn't Freebsd have Gnome in packages? | 05:18 |
| Whamazoom | yes I was told after i did the "port" to have done a pkg_add -r gnome2 | 05:18 |
| Whamazoom | I started the port yesterday at 3pm....still Downloading stuff | 05:19 |
| Howdy125 | Well if you want gnome then you don't want Xubuntu ;) | 05:22 |
| === spx2 [n=coder@89.37.70.170] has joined #xubuntu | ||
| Whamazoom | well I like gnome apps, but I want xfce to be my window manager | 05:25 |
| Whamazoom | and I heard that xfce can use gnome apps | 05:25 |
| Howdy125 | Yep it does. | 05:25 |
| Howdy125 | and kde apps | 05:25 |
| Whamazoom | so could I just get debian, then install xfce, and start adding gnome programs? theoretically | 05:25 |
| Whamazoom | Maybe I should start with what im doing with this computer... | 05:26 |
| Howdy125 | Well you could .. your life would be a lot easier if you use xubuntu though. | 05:26 |
| Whamazoom | I look at email,webpages,listen to music, movies, IRC, torrent, ftp server, remote desktop(windows),ssh login, and I wouldnt mind playing with apache, I also need wifi support with VPN connections | 05:27 |
| Whamazoom | and thats pretty much what i would use linux for....games stay with me on XP :D | 05:27 |
| Whamazoom | I just need a stable laptop to take to campus with me from time to time | 05:28 |
| Howdy125 | You can do all of that with any distro .. just some are harder to set up than others. | 05:28 |
| Whamazoom | and to run an ftp sever once and a while | 05:28 |
| Whamazoom | so Xubuntu will suit my needs fine? | 05:29 |
| Howdy125 | Should .. long as you take the time to learn a few things along the way. | 05:30 |
| Whamazoom | for instance? | 05:30 |
| Pumpernickel | Checking if a package exists before compiling your own. ^_^ | 05:31 |
| Howdy125 | How do set up an ftp server is one. | 05:31 |
| Whamazoom | well i really dont know much about the compiling / package thing | 05:31 |
| Howdy125 | If you install Automatix2 you can get all the media stuff easy. | 05:31 |
| Whamazoom | I know what compiling is....I had a few programming courses | 05:31 |
| Whamazoom | Automatix2....is that like easyubuntu? for xubuntu? | 05:32 |

| Howdy125 | It's a program that lets you select programs that aren't normally available through synaptic | 05:33 |
| === grazie doesn't recommend using Automatix | ||
| Howdy125 | grazie, Worked great for me .. :) | 05:33 |
| Whamazoom | It just installs like .mp3 support, and flash java quicktime and rreal right? | 05:33 |
| Pumpernickel | !automatix | 05:33 |
| ubotu | Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe | 05:33 |
| Pumpernickel | It's better to use the regular Ubuntu installation tools. | 05:34 |
| grazie | !WorksForMe | 05:34 |
| ubotu | Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should. Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability. | 05:34 |
| Pumpernickel | e.g, synaptic, apt-get, aptitude, or adept (if you're on Kubuntu) | 05:34 |
| Howdy125 | Don't be a nerd grazie :-/ | 05:34 |
| Whamazoom | does Xubuntu get updates like ubuntu does? | 05:35 |
| Howdy125 | Bottom line is you can add repos to get what you want .. use automatx .. or compile what you need ... | 05:36 |
| Whamazoom | the whole ./configure, make, make install thing? | 05:36 |

| Whamazoom | does Mplayer play Divx/Xvid, or will I need to get divx4linux | 05:38 |
| Howdy125 | Whamazoom, in pclos :) | 05:39 |
| Pumpernickel | Most media players can, although the ones that come preinstalled won't until you install the right codecs. (Which, incidentally, are available from the repository.) | 05:39 |
| Whamazoom | How will I find each respective codec/plugin, search the packages.debian.org for "codec" or "plugin" ? | 05:42 |
| Whamazoom | b/c I know I will need .aac, .mp3, .avi, divx,flash,java,quicktime,realplayer, and me thinks thats abouts its | 05:43 |

| Whamazoom | what about Mediabuntu? | 05:49 |
| hyper_ch | Howdy125: well, Automatix could break the whole system... in the past it has done quite often... meanwhile it's not that bad anymore... however everything automatix does you can do on your own... | 05:49 |
| hyper_ch | Howdy125: and you'll even learn about the workings by doing things manually | 05:50 |
| hyper_ch | Whamazoom: You mean the medibuntu Repository? | 05:50 |
| eljefe_ | good day! can anyone tell me the functional difference between Xubuntu 7.04 and Xubuntu 7.04 Alternate CD? I have a P3 500MHz laptop with 192MB of RAM and I'd like one of the two installed; I am afraid to do the regular CD since I'll kinda be on the edge of minimum RAM. Will the Alternate suffice? | 05:50 |
| Whamazoom | yes, i believe it is a repository | 05:50 |
| eljefe_ | !mediabunu | 05:50 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about mediabunu - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi | 05:50 |
| eljefe_ | !mediabuntu | 05:50 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about mediabuntu - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi | 05:50 |
| Howdy125 | hyper_ch, ok .. I used to do it all manually .. took a shortcut this time around with automatix | 05:51 |
| eljefe_ | baa | 05:51 |
| eljefe_ | !medibuntu | 05:51 |
| ubotu | medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://medibuntu.sos-sts.com/ | 05:51 |
| hyper_ch | eljefe_: in the end both are the same... the 704 comes with everything precompiled and 7.04 alternate does not... 7.04 desktop is also a live cd - which doesn't run everywhere and 7.04 alternate should be able to run everywhere | 05:51 |
| hyper_ch | !medibuntu | 05:51 |
| eljefe_ | hyper_ch: 'precompiled' vs. what, source packages? | 05:51 |
| hyper_ch | Whamazoom: if it's a repository it's normally alright.... automatix does more than just fetch files from a repository and add it to the system | 05:52 |
| hyper_ch | eljefe_: not really... I don't really know the exact difference but there is one since the alternate iso is bigger than the desktop one | 05:52 |
| eljefe_ | hyper_ch: would i be better off with one or the other? | 05:52 |
| hyper_ch | eljefe_: but after install both are the same | 05:53 |
| hyper_ch | eljefe_: with 192 ram you can run the desktop I think but I prefer installing from the alternate | 05:53 |
| eljefe_ | hyper_ch: maybe its just the install using X vs not, then? | 05:53 |
| eljefe_ | hmm | 05:53 |
| === Kresjah [n=a@ti231210a080-8000.bb.online.no] has joined #xubuntu | ||
| hyper_ch | eljefe_: well, the desktop, with running the live cd should use more space and not less I tend to think :) | 05:53 |
| eljefe_ | i would think so also... | 05:54 |
| hyper_ch | eljefe_: hence my assumption that there are probably difference in the packaging | 05:54 |
| eljefe_ | yeah... any idea where to dig for more info? | 05:55 |

| Howdy125 | Well like the other day I went to compile Pidgin .. and I had to keep looking for missing libs :-/ | 06:11 |
| TheSheep | Howdy125: that would install practically every package from the repo, since foo-dev depends on foo | 06:12 |
| Howdy125 | Hmmmm | 06:12 |
| Howdy125 | The heard part for me is when the compiler reports something is missing the name they give doesn't match too well with whats listed in apt. | 06:15 |

| Howdy125 | Anyway .. I figure it out eventually. | 06:17 |
| Pumpernickel | This is what apt-get's 'build-dep' option is for. | 06:18 |
| TheSheep | searching in synaptic usually helps | 06:18 |
| Pumpernickel | `sudo apt-get build-dep gaim` and you have all the development files required to build pidgin. | 06:18 |
| TheSheep | Pumpernickel: but don't you need source deb for that? | 06:18 |
| Pumpernickel | True. | 06:18 |
| === carloska [i=ariel@gateway/tor/x-376765f1a1d80bec] has joined #xubuntu | ||
| Pumpernickel | If you're building something that's not in the repository in some form, that won't work out so well. | 06:19 |
| Pumpernickel | However, if it's not been built for Ubuntu, there's no way to guarantee it's supported anyway. | 06:19 |
| TheSheep | Pumpernickel: why would you build something that *is* in the repository? :) | 06:20 |
| Pumpernickel | Versioning, apparently. | 06:20 |
| TheSheep | exactly | 06:20 |
| TheSheep | ah | 06:20 |
| TheSheep | compulsive upgraders :D | 06:20 |
| Pumpernickel | Yup. :) | 06:20 |
| Howdy125 | hehe | 06:20 |
| === TheSheep compiles new gaim and inkscape | ||
| TheSheep | oooh, engraving support and busket fill in Inkscape! yum! | 06:21 |
| TheSheep | bucket even | 06:21 |
| Howdy125 | New Pidgin you mean TheSheep | 06:21 |
| TheSheep | Howdy125: actually Imeant GIMP, only your suggestion made me mistype | 06:21 |
| Howdy125 | ok | 06:22 |
| TheSheep | Howdy125: I don't use gaim anyways, it depends on gconf | 06:22 |
| Howdy125 | gconf must be bad. | 06:24 |
| TheSheep | Howdy125: it's basically like windows'registers, only in XML | 06:25 |
| hyper_ch | Howdy125: install apt-file --> with that tool you can search for a file to what library it belongs to | 06:28 |
| Howdy125 | Thanks hyper_ch | 06:29 |
| hyper_ch | after installing it you first have to to apt-file update :) | 06:30 |
| Howdy125 | I'm glad you told me that .. :) | 06:31 |

| keb | in feisty, what is the device name for an ide cdrw | 10:32 |
| keb | grip can't seem to find it anymore | 10:32 |
| Pumpernickel | /dev/cdrw | 10:33 |
| mcscruff | /dev/cdrom ? | 10:34 |
| keb | neither one works | 10:34 |
| mcscruff | dvd ? | 10:34 |
| keb | not it is a plextor cdrw that worked in 6.10 | 10:34 |
| keb | *no, it | 10:35 |
| Pumpernickel | Check that /dev/cdrw points to the correct dev entry, then. | 10:35 |
| Pumpernickel | e.g; /dev/scd0 | 10:35 |
| keb | it points to /dev/hdd | 10:36 |
| Pumpernickel | That's unusual. It should be /dev/s* in Feisty. | 10:37 |
| keb | maybe it never changed that in the upgrade | 10:37 |
| keb | is there a way to have all the devices re-initialized | 10:37 |
| keb | i have no scd* at all | 10:38 |
| keb | cd /dev ; ./MAKEDEV -n update doesnt list /dev/scd0 as one of the devices to be made either | 10:42 |
| Pumpernickel | It could be related to bug 85578, although it's hard to tell. | 10:47 |
| ubotu | Launchpad bug 85578 in linux-source-2.6.17 "ide secondary drives not recognized" [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/85578 | 10:47 |
| keb | fixed it for now. my /dev/cdrom was linked from /dev/hdd but the cdrw is on /dev/hdc and the dvdrw is on /dev/hdd | 11:00 |
| keb | would be nice to get the scd* upgrade though | 11:00 |
