[01:29] <blizzow> Anyone here know if running an encrypted root filesystem will screw with Xen in Gutsy?  I can't get Xen to boot.  It says there is a kernel mismatch with Dom0.
[01:39] <jmg> xubuntu really struggles on 256mb ram
[01:46] <lontra> is it a known bug that when you unplug your laptop in gutsy that your laptop thinks your computer battery is toast and turns off?
[01:47] <Zapek> yes
[01:47] <Zapek> (at least I have it too)
[01:48] <lontra> Zapek: ok ... and it's been reported?
[01:48] <Zapek> dunno
[01:48] <Zapek> launchpad isn't easy to search imho
[01:49] <SeveredCross> Launchpad is a pain to search.
[01:49] <Zapek> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-power-manager/+bug/38756 har!
[01:50] <ubotu> Launchpad bug 38756 in gnome-power-manager "Wrong power warnings + sleep" [Medium,New] 
[01:50] <SeveredCross> Is there a search function even?
[01:50] <Zapek> but that's for dapper :)
[01:51] <SeveredCross> The bug I reported hasn't even been looked at. :(
[01:56] <jsestri2> Can anyone here give me a work around for the upgrade-manager giving me this error message? Failed to fetch http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/edgy/universe/binary-i386/Packages.bz2 Sub-process bzip2 returned an error code (2)
[02:01] <lontra> jsestri2: edgy?  that's feisty-1
[02:12] <jsestri2> longtra: yes, but i need edgy before i can get feisty
[02:13] <jsestri2> lontra: ^
[02:14] <jsestri2> how bad is it to dist-upgrade with apt instead of using upgrade-manager?
[02:17] <thoreauputic> jsestri2: not "bad" exactly - but you would probably have a lot more problems
[02:18] <thoreauputic> jsestri2: you would need to re-run the upgrade, probably use apt-get -f install several times etc. etc.
[02:18] <jsestri2> thoreauputic: hmm thanks for the info, it will help me decide. Am I at risk of breaking anything badly?
[02:18] <thoreauputic> jsestri2: in other words, you would need to know what you were doing :)
[02:19] <thoreauputic> jsestri2: why do you want to do it that way?
[02:19] <jsestri2> thoreauputic: I can't get upgrade-manager to work, it keeps giving me: "Failed to fetch http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/edgy/universe/binary-i386/Packages.bz2 Sub-process bzip2 returned an error code (2)"
[02:20] <thoreauputic> jsestri2: try changing your apt mirror in /etc/apt/sources.list
[02:20] <thoreauputic> jsestri2: for instance, remove the counry code or use a different one
[02:20] <jsestri2> thoreauputic, disovered the upgrad-manager does that for you, so I can't effect where they point to...also odd is that I can get to that file if i open that in a browswer
[02:21] <thoreauputic> jsestri2: have you run  sudo aptitude update ?
[02:21] <thoreauputic> jsestri2: I would try that first
[02:21] <jsestri2> i believe so, but I will run it just to be sure
[02:22] <thoreauputic> jsestri2: there is a wiki page about upgrades - have you read that?
[02:22] <thoreauputic> !upgrade
[02:22] <ubotu> For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[02:22] <thoreauputic> jsestri2: I think it has a section about using aptitude
[02:24] <thoreauputic> jsestri2: read this
[02:24] <thoreauputic> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FeistyUpgradesManual
[02:25] <jsestri2> thoreauputic: Wow, that looks great! thanks
[02:25] <thoreauputic> jsestri2: but be aware that you will probably have to do some post-upgrade fixing with apt-get -f install etc
[02:25] <jsestri2> thoreauputic, thats not a huge deal, I just wanted to avoid getting stuck with a half installation where i couldn't go forward or back
[02:26] <thoreauputic> jsestri2: no worries - just don't be surprised when you have to fiddle to get things going :)
[02:26] <jsestri2> thoreauputic, I've been on ubuntu for 2 years now, but I've been waiting because I hate redo'ing my custom drivers
[02:26] <thoreauputic> jsestri2: OK - well if you know your way around dpkg and apt-get and aptitude you should manage it
[02:27] <jsestri2> thoreauputic: awsome, thanks for your help
[02:27] <thoreauputic> jsestri2: you're welcome
[02:27] <thoreauputic> jsestri2: just don't blame me if it breaks ;p
[02:27] <jsestri2> thoreauputic: lol, I'll try. BTW are you a dev or ???
[02:28] <thoreauputic> no, I'm just an obsessive op with an Ubuntu addiction problem ;)
[02:28] <jsestri2> lol, you should channel some of that into contributing
[02:28] <thoreauputic> jsestri2: this is part of my contribution :)
[02:29] <jsestri2> i suppose it is...I always forget the support people, my bad, many thanks, keep up the good work
[02:29] <thoreauputic> I am also working on a live CD without X as a tutorial for CLI phobics :)
[02:30] <jsestri2> without X?
[02:30] <thoreauputic> yup
[02:31] <thoreauputic> with framebuffer, runs videos using mplayer, picture viewer with fbi , graphical browsing with links2 -g
[02:31] <jsestri2> thoreauputic: thats kinda cool. I wouldn't have thought of something like that
[02:31] <thoreauputic> plus streaming audio etc from bash script menus
[02:32] <thoreauputic> The user can navigate from menus by choosing options
[02:32] <jsestri2> so you're looking to get people back onto the terminal?
[02:33] <thoreauputic> no, just to show them that the terminal is powerful and things can be done there
[02:33] <thoreauputic> as it's a live CD only, they can play in it without fear
[02:34] <jsestri2> heh i can't imagine life without the term, I'd die personally
[02:34] <jsestri2> clicking is amazingly slow
[02:35] <thoreauputic> well, since we have so many windows refugees, a lot of them have no clue what can be done without X using a tty
[02:35] <jsestri2> that is a good point
[02:35] <thoreauputic> this is just an attempt to show/demonstrate what is under the surface in GNU/Linux
[02:37] <jsestri2> how different is fiesty?
[02:38] <thoreauputic> jsestri2: different from what?
[02:38] <thoreauputic> or do you mean gutsy ?
[02:38] <jsestri2> dapper
[02:38] <thoreauputic> ah OK
[02:38] <jsestri2> then whats the diff rom fiesty up to what gutsy is so far?
[02:39] <rsk> newer kernel newer gnome newer gcc
[02:39] <rsk> updates packages
[02:39] <DanaG> One issue: the need for native-res framebuffer.
[02:39] <rsk> updated*
[02:39] <thoreauputic> well, feisty has, for example, dialogs that ask you if you want to install codecs when you click on something it can't hadle out of the box
[02:39] <DanaG> With vesafb, there's no way for me to run at my LCD's native resolution.
[02:39] <jsestri2> thats a cool feature
[02:39] <DanaG> Instead, I have to use nvidiafb, with acceleration disabled.
[02:40] <DanaG> And then once nvidiafb is loaded, nvidia cannot be loaded until I reboot.
[02:40] <DanaG> Er, I mean, loading nvidiafb blocks nvidia, and nvidiafb is not unloadable.
[02:40] <thoreauputic> DanaG: actually the whole framebuffer thing is pretty arcane ( I've been working it out for my CD)
[02:41] <thoreauputic> DanaG: vga=789 seems to be a compromise that works OK for my purposes, but it needs testing on other hardware
[02:41] <DanaG> 789?
[02:42] <DanaG> Oh yeah, there are NO widescreen framebuffer resolutions, at least on my system.
[02:42] <thoreauputic> DanaG:  yes, that is 800x600 with full colour IIRC
[02:42] <DanaG> I use 792.
[02:42] <DanaG> 1024x768x24.
[02:42] <thoreauputic> right, that's 1024x768
[02:43] <thoreauputic> some apps insist on running suid root to access the console ( links2 -g for instance)
[02:44] <thoreauputic> changing the permissions is too invasive so I'm just making my "no X" CD not installable
[02:44] <thoreauputic> so far anyway
[02:46] <DanaG> links2 -g actually has TWO modes.
[02:46] <DanaG> fb, and directfb.
[02:46] <DanaG> (besides any X-based modes).
[02:47] <DanaG> Only the latter needs root access.
[02:47] <DanaG> In addition, if you install GPM (not gnome-power-manager), you'll notice that the mouse acts differently between the two.
[02:48] <thoreauputic> DanaG: yes - you forgot svgalib by the way :)
[02:49] <thoreauputic> DanaG: links2 tries to use directfb if it is present
[02:49] <thoreauputic> and the plain vanilla fb is horribly slow :)
[02:50] <thoreauputic> also, svgalib insists on manual config of the mouse and complains if it isn't configured
[02:51] <thoreauputic> thus, my current compromise is to set vga=789 and set links2 suid root ( only for the live CD I am trying to cobble together)
[02:55] <DanaG> Safer: instead of running the browser as root, make the device writeable.
[02:55] <DanaG> Is that safer?
[02:55] <thoreauputic> DanaG: well, if it only a live CD suid root seems reasonably safe to me
[02:56] <thoreauputic> i.e. anyone using it only has to sudo or su to get Total Power (tm)
[02:56] <thoreauputic> and it's essentailly read-only
[02:56] <DanaG> Which is worse: web browser as root, or framebuffer rw to all?
[02:56] <thoreauputic> I don't know, to be honest
[02:57] <DanaG> Nor do I.
[02:58] <thoreauputic> You can for example add users to group tty, and make the device writeable for that group
[02:58] <thoreauputic> but if that was an actual install, i think it would be against policy
[03:03] <thoreauputic> DanaG: to make a live CD without X look decent, a resolution like 800x600 works better than 1024x768, which results in everything appearing rather small, and by default in the top left corner - it starts to get complicated if you try to detect and adjust for everyone's monitor, too
[03:04] <thoreauputic> But hey, I've only been working on this for a couple of weeks so who knows?
[03:21] <voidmage> Is a newer version of nvidia-glx going to be packaged for support for 8-series cards?
[03:23] <DanaG> Oh yeah, one thing useful: check out hwinfo.
[03:24] <DanaG> Too bad vesafb is compiled-in.  If it were compiled as a module, or compiled in as vesafb-tng (a patch), you'd be able to select a better resolution on the fly.
[03:24] <thoreauputic> DanaG: fb support is a bit of an afterthought in Ubuntu it seems
[03:24] <DanaG> Yeah.
[03:25] <DanaG> That's the one thing (the ONLY one thing) I miss about Gentoo, from the short time I tried it: nice framebuffer support.
[03:25] <DanaG> Including fbsplash.
[03:29] <thoreauputic> lunchtime - later all
[03:49] <lontra> is medibuntu available for gutsy?
[03:51] <voidmage> yeah
[03:51] <voidmage> the repos are up, just not published on the site
[03:52] <voidmage> hmm.
[03:52] <voidmage> looks like they haven't packaged amarok 1.4.6 for gutsy though
[03:54] <lontra> is there no kde-games metapackage in gutsy?
[03:54] <voidmage> well then again, neither have they for feisty (amarok)
[03:54] <voidmage> !info kde-games gutsy
[03:54] <ubotu> Package kde-games does not exist in gutsy
[03:54] <voidmage> yeah, i don't see one.
[03:54] <voidmage> either
[03:54] <voidmage> (still working on upgrading though)
[03:54] <lontra> blah they broke it up into a bunch of little packages ...
[03:55] <voidmage> !info kdegames gutsy
[03:55] <ubotu> kdegames: games from the official KDE release. In component main, is optional. Version 4:3.5.7-1ubuntu1 (gutsy), package size 21 kB, installed size 72 kB
[03:55] <voidmage> !info kdegames feisty
[03:55] <ubotu> kdegames: games from the official KDE release. In component main, is optional. Version 4:3.5.6-0ubuntu2 (feisty), package size 20 kB, installed size 72 kB
[03:55] <voidmage> one word.
[03:55] <lontra> i see it ...
[03:55] <lontra> thanks
[04:24] <DanaG> What extras does Gutsy medibuntu Amarok have over the official version?
[04:28] <cables> I've got Tribe 2, will it update to Tribe 3 automatically? It just had normal updates, no distribution upgrade or anything. Is a "tribe" release just a milestone and CD snapshot, not an actual new release?
[04:29] <Toxicity999> yes
[04:29] <voidmage> yeah
[04:29] <cables> ok
[04:29] <cables> thanks
[04:29] <voidmage> if you keep up with your upgrades you're fine.
[04:29] <cables> So, Tribe 3 doesn't have any new features when compared to Tribe 2 that I haven't already seen in the course of normal upgrades?
[04:30] <cables> I don't seem much of a difference from when I installed it.
[04:30] <chowmeined> the installer
[04:30] <chowmeined> you can test the installer
[04:30] <cables> ah, ok :)
[04:30] <cables> so I guess I won't see that unless I do a full install
[04:38] <mrsno> nn
[04:58] <DanaG> WTF?  I just had to restart Xorg four times!
[04:58] <thompa> are you using desktop effects
[04:58] <DanaG> Xscreensaver got stuck on top of my desktop under Compiz, and when I did compiz --replace, compiz died and apparently took the panel with it.
[04:59] <DanaG> Yeah.
[04:59] <DanaG> And then I logged in, and no windows appeared -- yet I could hear the new-IM sound.
[04:59] <thompa> i have different effects for diff drivers
[05:00] <DanaG> So I logged out again, and this time compiz started, but when I tried to remove it from my session, the x server locked up so that only alt-sysrq-k could kill it.
[05:00] <thompa> on macbook always two panes
[05:00] <DanaG> Then I logged in again, and again the windows failed to appear.
[05:00] <thompa> on my nvidia box 4 panes
[05:00] <thompa> remove compiz if you need a quik fix or check bug stuff
[05:01] <thompa> i get no wireless with compiz enabled either
[05:01] <DanaG> I find it quite annoying that xscreensaver gets "burned in" to the desktop.  The close animation stalls, but when I rotate the cube I can see other windows beneath it.
[05:01] <thompa> still i like this better than osx lol
[05:01] <DanaG> Then compiz --replace locks up the X server.
[05:02] <thompa> use apt-get remvove in failsafe
[05:02] <thompa> sorry remove
[05:02] <thompa> then go back in and reinstall it very simple
[05:03] <thompa> check apport then
[05:03] <thompa> there is a problem on i915 in xorg i think
[05:04] <thompa> but nvidia has a diff issue for me right now,
[05:06] <chowmeined> why did ubuntu go with apparmour?
[05:08] <thompa> before you log out disable dektop effects then
[05:29] <DasKreech> anyone on Kubuntu Gutsy?
[05:40] <jmg> anyone know mod_python?
[05:40] <jmg> how can i use a variable passed by GET?
[05:42] <jmg> i'm trying to do: http://fooserver/foo.py?arg=Bar
[05:42] <chowmeined> jmg: im not sure how to exactly, but i figure there are more elegant ways to do stuff like that
[05:42] <chowmeined> jmg: have you looked at django?
[05:42] <jmg> chowmeined: overkill
[05:42] <chowmeined> but even still
[05:43] <chowmeined> you can extract the url mapping part for your uses
[05:43] <jmg> it's for an embedded system
[05:43] <jmg> you can do it with mod_python too
[05:43] <jmg> just the docs are sketchy
[05:43] <jmg> and what i am doing from what i understand should wor
[05:43] <jmg> k
[05:53] <jmg> yay! made it work
[05:53] <jmg> *dance*
[05:54] <jmg> oh that was totally the wrong channel for this question, sorry
[05:56] <DasKreech> :-)
[06:08] <CitizenKane> hi, is there anyone that could help me get wirless working with the 2.6.22 kernel?
[06:10] <Amaranth> CitizenKane: you are using gutsy, right?
[06:10] <CitizenKane> Amaranth, i'm on feisty with 2.6.22 kernel
[06:11] <Amaranth> CitizenKane: oh
[06:11] <Amaranth> CitizenKane: You get to keep both pieces then
[06:11] <crimsun> do you mean gutsy's 2.6.22-8.18 or a self-compiled kernel.org 2.6.22?
[06:12] <CitizenKane> crimsun, self compiled kernel
[06:12] <crimsun> then you need the respective firmware files in place.
[06:13] <CitizenKane> crimsun, where are the firmware files normally located?
[06:14] <Amaranth> hopefully a website for the device
[06:15] <CitizenKane> maybe just copy firmware from /lib/firmware/oldkernel to /lib/firmware/newkernel?
[06:15] <Amaranth> should work
[06:16] <CitizenKane> Amaranth, cool, i'll give it a try
[06:16] <DanaG> What WiFi card?
[06:16] <CitizenKane> DanaG, ipw2200
[06:16] <DanaG> I know ipw3945 and iwl{3945,4965} are not in-kernel.
[06:16] <DanaG> But 2200 is, so you're safe.
[06:29] <DanaG> !virtualization
[06:29] <ubotu> There are several solutions for running other operating systems (or their programs) inside Ubuntu, while using the native CPU as much as possible: !QEmu (with !KQemu or !qvm86), !VirtualBox, !VMWare, as well as !WINE and !Cedega for Windows applications
[06:30] <DanaG> Oh, oops, stupid plugin.
[06:31] <DanaG> !kvm
[06:31] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about kvm - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:31] <DanaG> !qemu
[06:31] <ubotu> qemu is an emulator you can use to run another operating system - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsXPUnderQemuHowTo
[06:31] <jsestri2> Anyone know why I would get the error: #ubuntu unable to join channel (address is banned)?
[06:34] <crdlb> jsestri2, #ubuntu-ops
[06:46] <jsestri2> Alright, I would ask this in the regular #ubuntu, but aparently I'm banned and nobody will un-ban me...
[06:47] <jsestri2> I just upgraded to feisty from dapper (upgrade-manager), my x doesn't work anymore. I remember having a similar problem way back when I got breezy...I have an nvidia card...

[06:50] <CitizenKane> Amaranth, so i installed the firmware but the card won't associate at all
[06:51] <Amaranth> i dunno dude
[06:51] <Amaranth> like i said, you get to keep both pieces
[06:51] <voidmage> I found the same error for karm as in kmail, knotes, and korganizer
[06:51] <CitizenKane> yep, oh well, I just wanted to play around with the cool new dynticks features
[06:51] <voidmage> that was the one that failed first.
[06:52] <voidmage> DanaG:
[06:52] <DanaG> You can use dpkg to remove kpilot.
[06:53] <voidmage> so what should I do first?
[06:55] <DasKreech> anyone on Kubuntu Gutsy?
[06:55] <voidmage> working on it, stuck in an upgrade right now.
[06:55] <voidmage> i'll let you know when it comes back.
[06:56] <voidmage> hmm
[06:56] <voidmage> looks like a few rounds of apt-get -f install is fixing it.
[06:57] <voidmage> anyone know how to bring back the old-style sudo prompt?
[06:58] <voidmage> i'll get this upgrade done then mess with that.
[07:22] <voidmage> gutsy has tickless kernel enabled by default right?
[07:23] <jsestri2> Is there a way to check which drivers the xserver can handle / exist? No matter what I configure the xserver for it always complains the driver couldn't be found.
[07:25] <RAOF> voidmage: Yes, as long as you're not running the amd64 version.
[07:26] <voidmage> well, one dist upgrade, 3 runs of apt-get -f install
[07:26] <voidmage> another dist upgrade
[07:26] <voidmage> still not done
[07:26] <voidmage> ;P
[07:31] <voidmage> two dist-upgrades, 3 apt-get -f installs, and apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[07:31] <voidmage> :P
[07:31] <voidmage> maybe.
[08:02] <voidmage> Is there a new login splash to match the new login screen?
[08:05] <voidmage> (kde)
[08:06] <Hobbsee> dont think so
[08:10] <chowmeined> voidmage: gnome-look.org?
[09:00] <Admiral_Chicago> hi, i'm getting an error with compiz, when i enable it, my windows borders disappear

[09:06] <Admiral_Chicago> could it be related to this line: exec: 252: /usr/bin/metacity: not found
[09:06] <Admiral_Chicago> thats the last thing of ourput I got, I am running KDE
[09:08] <chowmeined> Admiral_Chicago: did you install compiz-kde?
[09:09] <Admiral_Chicago> yes i did
[09:09] <chowmeined> Admiral_Chicago: do you want emerald or whatever the kde window manager is?
[09:09] <Admiral_Chicago> i'd like aquamarine but emerald is fine
[09:11] <Admiral_Chicago> If I try anything with compiz, Kwin goes away, the boarders disappear and I'm stuck without a window manager
[09:11] <chowmeined> Admiral_Chicago: open a terminal and type: kwin&
[09:12] <chowmeined> or aquamarine --replace&
[09:12] <Admiral_Chicago> ah thats a good idea, run it in the background...
[09:15] <LinuxProbie> having problems with my broadcom wireless card, can someone lend assistance?
[09:15] <Admiral_Chicago> there is no aquamarine package in the repos
[09:16] <towlieba> LinuxProbie, whats the problem ?
[09:17] <LinuxProbie> towlieba, after a reboot it was as if it wasn't there anymore.
[09:18] <LinuxProbie> towlieba, I don't even have the green wireless light anymore.
[09:18] <towlieba> hmm
[09:18] <towlieba> before you rebooted did you do a software update with synaptic package manager ?
[09:18] <LinuxProbie> nope
[09:18] <towlieba> what did you do ?
[09:18] <MilhousePunkRock> So who is responsible for maintaining the iso download server?
[09:18] <LinuxProbie> nothing. only thing I did was change the network it was trying to connect to.
[09:19] <towlieba> you're using madwifi right ?
[09:19] <LinuxProbie> using wha?
[09:20] <towlieba> are you using madwifi for your broadcom wireless card ?
[09:20] <towlieba> it provides driver support for a lot of different wireless b/g cards
[09:21] <LinuxProbie> towlieba, never heard of it
[09:21] <towlieba> are u sure u werent connected using a wired network
[09:22] <MilhousePunkRock> towlieba: madwifi is not for broadcom cards, as far as I know...
[09:22] <towlieba> yea it is
[09:22] <towlieba> i have a broadcom wireless card and need madwifi loaded for it to be recognized by linux
[09:23] <towlieba> in the past i had a pcmcia wifi card that used the broadcom chipset and worked great with madwifi
[09:23] <LinuxProbie> towlieba, I think I got it working, gimmie a sec.
[09:24] <towlieba> ok
[09:30] <LinuxProbie> towlieba, well, whatever xtknight told me to do, worked like a charm.. o.o'
[09:32] <towlieba> what did he tell you to do ?
[09:32] <xtknight> "sudo modprobe -r ndiswrapper" twice to remove possibility of duplicate drivers and then "sudo modprobe ndiswrapper"
[09:32] <LinuxProbie> sudo modprobe -r ndiswrapper twice, then sudo modprobe ndiswrapper
[09:32] <xtknight> ndiswrapper wasnt in his /etc/modules so it's entirely possible it was never loaded anyway
[09:33] <towlieba> oh
[09:33] <towlieba> :p
[09:33] <towlieba> i shoulda known you were using ndiswrapper
[09:33] <LinuxProbie> so I'm confused...should ndiswrapper be in modules or not?
[09:33] <towlieba> LinuxProbie, if you start to get kernel crashes like i always have when using ndiswrapper, try madwifi i know it works for broadcom chipsets and is a lot more stable than ndiswrapper
[09:33] <towlieba> yes if you want it to start automatically and not manually load it
[09:34] <DanaG> What is madwifi?  I see no "madwifi" module.
[09:34] <DanaG> I call that confusing naming.
[09:34] <towlieba> you have to compile it
[09:34] <towlieba> but its easy
[09:34] <towlieba> download madwifi ,extract,cd madwifi, make ,sudo make install,modprobe ath_pci
[09:34] <towlieba> thats it
[09:34] <DanaG> aah, ath_pci.
[09:34] <DanaG> not madwifi.  Who came up with that one?
[09:34] <towlieba> but it doesnt come with ubuntu
[09:35] <DanaG> You see what I mean about the naming?
[09:35] <towlieba> you need to get the latest build for some of the newer wifi cards
[09:35] <DanaG> I already have ipw3945 built-in, so there's not a great point to it for me.
[09:35] <DanaG> Though I do also have a bcm43xx wireless cardbus card around here, too.
[09:37] <DanaG> Aagh, droppings on my screen!
[09:38] <DanaG> The little 000F boxes.
[09:38] <chowmeined> i wish madwifi was completely open source :(
[09:45] <LinuxProbie> Ok everything's fine.
[09:46] <LinuxProbie> towlieba, Hey, do you know how to change the default keyring password?
[09:49] <gutsytrials> Howdy party people.
[09:49] <KMoth> Do you love me too?
[09:49] <KMoth> I like you a lot, gut.
[09:49] <gutsytrials> I just installed tribe 3, and I'm excited about it, but I'm getting Grub Loading... Please Wait  then  Error 22
[09:50] <gutsytrials> Anyone wanna walk me through fixing grub?  I'm on the Feisty live CD now, so I can get online.
[09:51] <gutsytrials> The gutsy CD only booted every other 5th time, and I imagine I'll be rebooting at least once during this process. :D
[10:09] <corevette> what is ubufox
[10:12] <KMoth> !ubufox ! corevette
[10:12] <KMoth> !ubufox | corevette
[10:12] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ubufox - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:54] <pvandewyngaerde> is oit possible at boot to get 1400x900 reso ?
[11:30] <Michael_T_King> Anyone having probs w/pidgin?
[11:32] <Michael_T_King> Do we talk about .dev types of things here?
[11:32] <Michael_T_King> .j #kinuxmint
[11:33] <jussi01> Michael_T_King: its a bit dead here at this time of morning...
[11:34] <jussi01> and yes, we talk as deep .dev as we feel like :P
[11:34] <Michael_T_King> I love Ubuntu, but it broke my heart when Mint came out
[11:35] <Michael_T_King> :)
[11:42] <Michael_T_King> hi guys
[11:42] <Michael_T_King> whats up
[11:44] <JosefK> Michael_T_King, just downloading the alternate cd, after the desktop failed spectacularly ^^ no info I could send to launchpad though, box had completely hung :( *sighs*
[11:44] <Michael_T_King> ok JosefK are you @ a comand prompt
[11:44] <Michael_T_King> ?
[11:44] <Michael_T_King> You have Cable or DSP inet
[11:44] <JosefK> Michael_T_King, hah, I wish, could've done something with the box then
[11:45] <JosefK> Cable
[11:45] <Michael_T_King> JosefK, are you comfortable with the console command line
[11:45] <JosefK> Michael_T_King, I can ssh into a *nix box if you want to do some testing?
[11:45] <JosefK> Michael_T_King, see above ^^
[11:45] <Michael_T_King> JosefK, you mean me into yiours?
[11:46] <JosefK> Michael_T_King, um... hell no - just wondering why you were asking?
[11:46] <Michael_T_King> That'd be fine... i'd even turn prefetch on
[11:46] <Michael_T_King> Necause i've done it for others.
[11:46] <JosefK> Ah, fair enough, thanks for the offer, but it looks like the alt cd just downloaded, back in a bit after I install it
[11:48] <Michael_T_King> JosefK, IF i think i wanted your router bad enough i could take it.
[11:48] <Michael_T_King> :)
[11:49] <JosefK> Michael_T_King, were you talking about the cable router, or a unix box, out of interest?
[11:50] <Michael_T_King> I
[11:50] <Michael_T_King> I'
[11:50] <Michael_T_King> lol
[11:50] <Michael_T_King> i'll pwn them both.
[11:51] <JosefK> hehe, no no, I thought you had some magic tweaks for my aged cable modem for a sec, ISP won't send me a new one :/
[11:51] <JosefK> biab
[11:52] <Michael_T_King> lol
[11:52] <Michael_T_King> what a goon.
[11:52] <Michael_T_King> lets see.
[12:04] <Kain> Does gutsy use tracker or does it still use beagle?
[12:22] <kervel> hello, since this night (gutsy) dhclient doesn't work anymore. it complains about "permission denied". i think it drops too much privileges (when i remove the "dhcp" user and group, where dhclient does a setuid to, everything starts to work) .. i originally posted this on #ubuntu but there i was told this is the right place ...
[12:23] <riri> Hi
[12:31] <elkbuntu> kervel, have you reported it on launchpad?
[12:42] <Zapek> if I lock the screen under compiz, I cannot enter my password into the string anymore. now the question is if it's a compiz bug or a gnome-screensaver bug?
[12:43] <kervel> elkbuntu i found many reports with similar errors. most of them were because of faulty drivers, i didn't find any one yet with problems with privileges
[12:43] <kervel> elkbuntu i want to know if others are suffering from the problem too .. it could be a local problem here
[12:43] <kervel> i'm already using this machine since hoary, and i never did a fresh install .. so
[12:53] <elkbuntu> kervel, if you put it up on launchpad, more people will be able to find it. at worst, it gets rejected. at best, you find a fix
[12:58] <elmargol> Was someone able to start tribe 3 on qemu?
[01:03] <gutsytrials> I am SO lost on this grub problem.
[01:03] <gutsytrials> read about 20 things, tried about 20 things.  Have no idea what is going on.  Why is it so hard to just get grub to recognize where I JUST installed gutsy?
[01:06] <riri> i am on vmware gusty
[01:07] <riri> because i can't start it from an acer core duo2 with xpress 1200S
[01:07] <Xemanth> start it?
[01:07] <riri> i mean boot
[01:07] <Xemanth> have you tried alt disc
[01:07] <Xemanth> alternative*
[01:07] <riri> no desktop
[01:08] <riri> do you mean cd alternative ?
[01:08] <Xemanth> alternative cd
[01:08] <Xemanth> there's desktop cd and alternative cd
[01:08] <riri> yes
[01:08] <Xemanth> desktop cd boots to desktop :)
[01:08] <riri> i choose desktop
[01:09] <Xemanth> xorg has problems with ati gfx chips
[01:09] <riri> becaus i wanted to try it as livecd
[01:09] <Xemanth> when does system hang?
[01:09] <riri> i guess i already have it with feisty
[01:09] <riri> just at beginning
[01:09] <Xemanth> it falls to command line when trying to start X or just hangs with black screen
[01:10] <Xemanth> try hitting ctrl alt f1
[01:10] <riri> i have got a message kind of kan find kernel and hex number
[01:10] <Xemanth> nice :)
[01:11] <Xemanth> problem might be in sata controller hmm-m
[01:11] <Xemanth> what laptop do you exactly have?
[01:11] <riri> i am trying it on another pc
[01:11] <riri> with ati 9200
[01:11] <riri> i will see
[01:12] <riri> aspire
[01:12] <Xemanth> one othe things, maybe your cd is defected or something...
[01:12] <Xemanth> thing*
[01:13] <riri> i am trying now on another pc
[01:14] <Xemanth> ye
[01:14] <riri> looks like booting
[01:14] <riri> passed the problem on the acer
[01:14] <Xemanth> heh
[01:14] <riri> i guess it's ati which is not recognise
[01:14] <Xemanth> problem might be sata/pata controller
[01:15] <riri> works on the radeon 9200 on the other pc !
[01:15] <riri> is there any thing to do ?
[01:15] <Xemanth> 9200 is antique :)
[01:15] <riri> lol
[01:15] <riri> but working ! lol
[01:15] <Xemanth> old stuff do
[01:15] <riri> yes always
[01:16] <Xemanth> what acer aspire do you have?
[01:16] <riri> can we upgrade feisty to gutsy
[01:16] <Xemanth> you will break whole system with that :D
[01:16] <riri> core duo 2
[01:16] <Xemanth> there are many acer aspire system which have c2d
[01:16] <Xemanth> :P
[01:16] <riri> i will ask my wife if i can format her computer ! lol
[01:17] <Xemanth> if you want to use gutsy you can try it with vmware
[01:17] <riri> yes sorry
[01:17] <riri> T671 - PB7Z
[01:18] <riri> yes i talking to you from kde4 konversation on vmware
[01:18] <Xemanth> wtf 430e :D
[01:18] <riri> but i am interested in the new feature of kde4
[01:18] <riri> i can't get it runing on feisty
[01:19] <gutsytrials> My grub is giving Error 22, but when I try sudo grub-install /dev/sdc2
[01:19] <gutsytrials> It says Could not find device for /boot.
[01:19] <gutsytrials> so... what do I do?
[01:20] <gutsytrials> Would it fix it if I just deleted the grub directory and reinstalled?
[01:20] <riri> plasma seems to be working on vmware kde4 a bit dark (black can we change the color ?)
[01:21] <gutsytrials> I changed the flag in gparted to boot will that do it?
[01:21] <Xemanth> don't think so
[01:22] <gutsytrials> So how do I fix my grub?  I've read like 20 pages, and tried like 30 different things.
[01:23] <Xemanth> grub is one of the hardest software to understand for me :D
[01:23] <gutsytrials> You're not kidding!
[01:23] <gutsytrials> and #grub is no help at all.
[01:24] <Xemanth> gutsytrials: is sdc2 your boot partition ?
[01:24] <gutsytrials> maybe?
[01:24] <Xemanth> :D
[01:24] <gutsytrials> That's where the grub directory is!
[01:24] <Xemanth> yeah then it is
[01:24] <gutsytrials> OK!  So now what do I do?
[01:24] <Xemanth> hmm-m
[01:25] <Xemanth> i just remember that always when i sc*ew grub like that, the fastest thing to fix it is to reinstall :D
[01:25] <gutsytrials> wait, no that can't be it.
[01:25] <gutsytrials> I just did reinstall!
[01:27] <gutsytrials> where the hell did /dev/sdd1 Come from?
[01:27] <gutsytrials> And what IS it?
[01:27] <gutsytrials> what if I just delete all of grub?
[01:27] <gutsytrials> How do I find out my /dev/sdx from the disk-3 that shows up in nautilus?
[01:34] <Xemanth> gutsytrials: you can try sudo apt-get install --reinstall grub
[01:35] <Xemanth> gutsytrials: you can see your partition with sudo fdisk -l
[01:35] <Xemanth> mount -command tells which partition are mounted where
[01:35] <gutsytrials> yeah, I found it.
[01:35] <gutsytrials> I'll try that.
[01:37] <gutsytrials> It claims success!
[01:37] <gutsytrials> How can I be sure that that drive is my boot drive?
[01:41] <Xemanth> in next boot :P
[01:41] <Xemanth> :D

[02:30] <cRhYlove> How do I enable nvidia in gutsy?
[02:32] <Hobbsee> !nvidia
[02:32] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[02:33] <cRhYlove> thnx!
[02:34] <cRhYlove> Yeah, but the restricted drivers are not in my System menu!
[02:35] <Hobbsee> kubuntu doesnt have a restricted drivers thing yet
[02:35] <Hobbsee> you cna install the ubuntu one
[02:37] <cRhYlove> No this is Gutsy 7.10 Tribe 3, 64 bit edition.
[02:37] <cRhYlove> no kubuntu.
[02:37] <cRhYlove> And there is NO restricted driver option in the system menu.
[02:37] <noob0-alpha3> testing gutsy alpha3 to see if mdadm works (mdadm didn't work for me in feisty with software raid 5). I installed from the alternative cd and I see a device /dev/md0, but trying to sudo mount /dev/md0 /mnt/raid fails...what to do?
[02:39] <cRhYlove> Is this like some crazy ass new bug?
[02:40] <Hobbsee> actually, i noticed that gone.  not sure where
[02:40] <cRhYlove> what's the terminal code for it?
[02:41] <cRhYlove> Maybe just the menu is missing?
[02:42] <noob0-alpha3> mdadm: i'm seeing the same behaviour as in feisty, namely that my drives dont all get created so my raid cant be assembled
[02:43] <noob0-alpha3> ls /dev/sd*
[02:43] <noob0-alpha3> /dev/sda  /dev/sdb  /dev/sdb1  /dev/sdc  /dev/sdc1  /dev/sdd  /dev/sdd1
[02:43] <noob0-alpha3> no /dev/sda1
[02:50] <tatters> been trying to upgrade keep getting   "Failed to fetch http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu/dists/gutsy/commercial/binary-i386/Packages.gz  404 Not Found ""  is there any way to remedy this?
[02:51] <noob0-alpha3> well back to edgy..
[02:51] <cRhYlove> could that be related to my problem?
[02:55] <Hobbsee> tatters: check whether it exists....
[02:55] <Hobbsee> i doubt the commercial repo is there for gutsy yest
[02:57] <tatters> apparently it does not exist YET it says it has been released, I followed the advice to update, upgrade and then run update-manager -d , I did not add that link to the repos it di it automatically
[02:59] <lamalex> I'd be surpised if the commercial repo was open for gutsy yet
[03:00] <Hobbsee> tatters: ubuntu tribe 3 si released.  it in no way mentions the canonical commercial repository.
[03:00] <lamalex> they usually don't open that until release
[03:01] <tatters> Y would it be in the download list if it not yet available..do I just ignore the message till it becomes live?
[03:01] <lamalex> remote that repo from your sources.list
[03:02] <tatters> k
[03:08] <cRhYlove> So does this mean I can't have Nvidia drivers yet (and compiz-fusion)? Or am I having a separate and weirder problem?
[03:10] <Hobbsee> cRhYlove: what happens if you run restricted<tab> from a command line?  what does it output?
[03:10] <Hobbsee> cRhYlove: are you on teh live cd, or in the installed system?
[03:11] <cRhYlove> installed.
[03:11] <cRhYlove> it was on the live cd, funny enough!
[03:11] <Hobbsee> what does apt-cache policy restricted-manager say?
[03:12] <cRhYlove> installed: (none)
[03:12] <Hobbsee> darn.
[03:12] <Hobbsee> cRhYlove: how was it on the tribe 3 live cd?
[03:12] <Hobbsee> it wasnt for me...
[03:12] <cRhYlove> yeah, that's a pretty serious error in tribe 3, no?
[03:12] <cRhYlove> it was on the live cd, but now installed system, it is MIA.
[03:13] <Hobbsee> not.....really a critical bug, no.
[03:13] <Hobbsee> for a tribe
[03:13] <cRhYlove> can i get it in synaptic?
[03:13] <Hobbsee> yep
[03:14] <cRhYlove> hurray!
[03:14] <cRhYlove> :)
[03:14] <cRhYlove> Probably have to reboot in a second.
[03:14] <Hobbsee> cRhYlove: there are more serious bugs in tribe 3, let me tell you...
[03:14] <cRhYlove> Where should I report this one?
[03:14] <cRhYlove> I'm sure! LOL
[03:15] <coNP> anyone trying to use liferea?
[03:16] <Hobbsee> cRhYlove: wouldnt bother - we're looking into it now
[03:16] <coNP> anyone aware why gparted is *so* slow?
[03:16] <cRhYlove> cool.
[03:16] <cRhYlove> well, off to reboot!
[03:16] <cRhYlove> :D
[03:17] <Hobbsee> cRhYlove: it's a bug in soyuz, which is part of the build infrastructure
[03:17] <Hobbsee> cRhYlove: which is why i held off asking you to report it :)
[03:17] <cRhYlove> good 2 know.
[03:17] <cRhYlove> brb
[03:29] <cRhYlove> Hey, I was also missing the compiz config settings manager, and had to add it by hand in synaptic.
[03:30] <Hobbsee> cRhYlove: by design.  neither are in main.
[03:30] <Hobbsee> apt-cache madison <packagename>
[03:30] <Hobbsee> as in, the main stuff is just the defaults, no config.  at least at the moment
[03:31] <Hobbsee> no extras
[03:46] <cRhYlove> I can't find emerald themes in synaptic!
[03:55] <Dannilion> hello
[03:55] <Dannilion> does anyone know how to get direct rendering on with an intel 945 graphics card and gutsy?
[04:03] <crdlb> Dannilion, sudo apt-get install libgl1-mesa-dri
[04:09] <crdlb> Dannilion, did you get that?
[04:12] <Dannilion> nope :(
[04:13] <Dannilion> my laptop's battery died- the power cable had come out
[04:14] <crdlb> Dannilion, sudo apt-get install libgl1-mesa-dri
[04:16] <Dannilion> okay, installing
[04:16] <crdlb> that's the free DRI package
[04:16] <Dannilion> :)
[04:16] <crdlb> for a (short) while gutsy wasn't going to include it on the cd
[04:16] <crdlb> due to a misunderstanding I guess
[04:17] <Dannilion> It wasn't on the CD yesterday
[04:22] <Dannilion> yay! It works!
[04:23] <Dannilion> thanks crdlb
[04:26] <Hobbsee> crdlb: Dannilion thanks for raising that
[04:26] <Hobbsee> hmm..  this having the ubuntu seeds here is kinda inconvenient
[04:27] <pawan> hi
[04:28] <Dannilion> hi
[04:34] <pawan> can ubuntu be used with windows
[04:35] <coNP> pawan: what do you mean?
[04:35] <pawan> i have windows installed in my system
[04:35] <Dannilion> you can dual boot it, yes
[04:36] <pawan> now i wanna set ubuntu without destroying windows
[04:36] <coNP> it is possible
[04:36] <Dannilion> easiest way is a new harddrive
[04:36] <pawan> how to make partitions
[04:36] <pawan> i have fat32 filesystem
[04:37] <Dannilion> the way I did it was to defrag Windows, then resize the partition and use the free space to create my Linux partitions
[04:37] <pawan> does it preserver the data
[04:37] <Dannilion> it did for me, but I made sure there was plenty of free space and defragged first
[04:38] <jussi01> defrag several times...
[04:38] <pawan> cant we use without defrag
[04:38] <jussi01> I recommend at least 3
[04:38] <pawan> i should defrag all the drives three times
[04:38] <jussi01> yes
[04:39] <pawan> my hard disk is 400gb
[04:39] <jussi01> it will minimise the amount of risk of losing data
[04:39] <pawan> with 10 partitions
[04:39] <jussi01> the 2nd and 3rd times will be much quicker
[04:40] <Anton99> a am defragmented 10 times :) the last been only 2 minutes long :P
[04:40] <jussi01> your call... but thats my reccomendation...
[04:42] <pawan> if i create manully linux partition
[04:43] <Dannilion> I only defragged once, but it was a new install of XP :p
[04:43] <pawan> in have window xp and windows 2008 server installed
[04:43] <pawan> one partion is fat32 and other is ntfs
[04:45] <Anton99> better resize NTFS
[04:45] <Anton99> this is more secure
[04:45] <Anton99> :)
[04:45] <pawan> how much space does ubuntu takes
[04:46] <Anton99> approx. 2GB
[04:46] <pawan> i ntfs partition is 19.5 gb
[04:46] <pawan> with free 10 gb
[04:46] <Anton99> ok, you can defrag and resize to 15Gb
[04:46] <Anton99> and give 5Gb to / and 0.5Gb to swap
[04:47] <Anton99> how much RAM you have?
[04:47] <pawan> 512mb
[04:47] <pawan> how to resize
[04:51] <Anton99> you are already defragmented?
[04:51] <pawan> i started the defragmentation process
[04:51] <pawan> of the 19.5 gb drive
[04:51] <Anton99> ok. how important info is on this partition?
[04:52] <pawan> the os windows 2008 server is there
[04:52] <Anton99> i hate mustdie servers :)
[04:53] <pawan> do i have to defrag all the partions or only the 19.5 gb partition
[04:56] <Anton99> only what partition you want to resize
[04:56] <pawan> the 19.5 gb
[04:56] <Anton99> yes :)
[04:56] <pawan> i started the defrag process
[04:57] <pawan> but why to defrag

[05:33] <Dannilion> okay, is there a guide to getting compiz fusion working nicely in Kubuntu?
[05:34] <jussi01> Dannilion: it doesnt like kubuntu right now...
[05:34] <Dannilion> okay
[05:34] <Dannilion> I shall install beryl then
[05:34] <jussi01> Dannilion: I have it and it has a few bugs atm
[05:34] <Dannilion> such as?
[05:35] <jussi01> like maxiised windows, and shadows are nasty...
[05:35] <Dannilion> (apart from a distinct lack of instructions anywhere for gutsy and kde)
[05:35] <Dannilion> ahh

[05:36] <jussi01> Dannilion: I dont think so
[05:37] <jussi01> Dannilion: best off asking in #ubuntu-effects
[05:37] <rohan> coNP: thank you for testing that bug. if it's solved, please mark it .. because it's not good to mark one's own bugs

[05:49] <coNP> java6 I mean
[05:50] <coNP> np, I get the package and check that
[07:31] <tech404> does anyone know how the compiz/beryl fusion is effecting gusty?
[07:32] <crdlb> tech404, hmm?
[07:32] <crdlb> well it's gutsy, and gutsy will ship with compiz fusion enabled by default
[07:36] <eagles0513875> lol
[07:36] <eagles0513875> now ur tempting me to test it out lol
[07:36] <eagles0513875> but ive installed so much im just asking to break something
[07:37] <tech404> thanks for the correction, is it fairly stable in the current release
[07:37] <blizzow> Anyone here been successful with installing VMware on Gutsy?
[07:38] <eagles0513875> blizzow: u running 64bit
[07:38] <blizzow> nope.
[07:38] <eagles0513875> its rather complicated
[07:38] <eagles0513875> blizzow: i use something more light weight and its so easy to setup its called virtual box i tried it on a 64bit versino of gutsy with no luck
[07:38] <blizzow> I don't mind rtfm'ing as long as someone points me to the fm.
[07:39] <eagles0513875> im no help
[07:39] <eagles0513875> blizzow: try out virtual box its actually a lighter weight virtual machine software
[07:39] <eagles0513875> vry similar to vmwareserver
[07:41] <blizzow> Is it in a special repository?  I don't see it in my package list.
[07:42] <eagles0513875> u have to go and download the source and compile it from source from their site
[07:42] <stdin> !VirtualBox
[07:42] <ubotu> VirtualBox is open-source virtualization software for x86, with a proprietary "enterprise" version sporting additional features. Packages for Ubuntu are provided by the makers at http://www.virtualbox.org/ - Setup details at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/VirtualBox
[07:43] <eagles0513875> stdin: j/w does any 64bit version of kubuntu run 32bit apps
[07:46] <stdin> eagles0513875: with the 32bit compatibility libs, yes
[07:47] <eagles0513875> ahhhh ok
[07:48] <eagles0513875> Hobbsee: welcome back

[07:52] <eagles0513875> Hobbsee: thought u were out for the night
[07:52] <eagles0513875> stdin: u much of a programmer
[07:52] <stdin> not really, I'm just learning C++ (i bought a book)
[07:53] <eagles0513875> damn ok its so hard to find good programmers lol
[07:53] <stdin> try in the -devel channels, there's a few in those
[07:54] <eagles0513875> stdin: its a project of mine own designing my own distro a cluster version
[07:55] <blizzow> Why, why why, do programmers insist on reinventing the wheel?
[07:55] <stdin> because the wheel is imperfect :p
[07:56] <blizzow> stdin: If programmers worked on fixing the first wheel instead of re-inventing it, the wheel would've been perfected eons ago.
[07:57] <stdin> but now there are lots of wheels to suit your needs. (and I'm liking the wheel analogy :p )
[07:58] <eagles0513875> lol i like too
[08:04] <mrfeetio> are the kde4 packages in the gutsy repos?
[08:05] <stdin> yeah
[08:05] <mrfeetio> are they kept up to date?
[08:06] <stdin> I think they are the alpha ones, 3.80.3
[08:06] <mrfeetio> thanks
[08:06] <stdin> but if you want up-to-date it's best to grab the svn source
[08:12] <Gadi> hello, all.  I have been working on a liveCD based on gutsy for a bit, which was working well until I recently upgraded the kernel to -8 (from -7) and now, it appears the loop device is broken

[08:12] <Gadi> (I mean mounting a loop device within the initramfs)

[09:04] <Hobbsee> Some_Person: /topic
[09:04] <Some_Person> Why does the topic say "Go Ape"?
[09:04] <Some_Person> oh, so thats how they get the version numbers
[09:05] <Some_Person> but why the go ape?
[09:06] <Pici> Some_Person: Gibbons are a type of monkey
[09:06] <Some_Person> oh
[09:07] <Some_Person> What was the first release of Ubuntu?
[09:08] <geem> hiyas

[09:09] <jussi01> Some_Person: go read the ubuntu website...
[09:10] <ubunut> i wanna help the developers
[09:10] <ubunut> i'll be the test idjet
[09:10] <Some_Person> But I've heard of pre-4.10 releases: 4.04 and 3.10
[09:10] <ubunut> i have newb mentality
[09:10] <Some_Person> or were those just typos?
[09:10] <ubunut> i could be useful
[09:10] <ubunut> and i need a job
[09:10] <ubunut> HaHa HaHa HaHa HaHa HaHa
[09:11] <PriceChild> Some_Person, those don't/didn't exist, you are offtopic for this channel.
[09:22] <corevette> are desktop effects going to be on kubuntu by default also?
[09:30] <borschty> i got the problem that my ubuntu does not boot up anymore, it just loads the kernel, but it does not seem to find the disks, after some time i got into the busybox console now and /dev/disk/by-uuid does not exist - got something changed in that area lately?
[09:37] <pvandewyngaerde> did you change partitions ?
[09:38] <borschty> no
[09:39] <borschty> maybe i have to add that the pc completely locked up during an upgrade
[09:40] <borschty> i rebootet, using an older kernel, which had not gone throug configuration and did a dpkg-reconfigure -a (iirc) to configure the missing packages
[09:41] <borschty> after that i reinstalled the linux-* packages, udev, grub, initramfs-tools, just to be on the safe side, cause the crash happened somewhere during the configuration of those
[09:54] <kalman> hi, all. I just upgraded to gutsy from feisty
[09:55] <kalman> however I'm still using kde 3.7.5
[09:55] <kalman> how to upgrade to 4 ?
[09:57] <jussi01> !kde4
[09:57] <ubotu> For information on KDE 4 (not to be released for quite some time yet), see: http://www.canllaith.org/svn-features/kde4.html. Also worth checking are: appeal/phonon/plasma/solid.kde.org
[09:57] <databuddy> yey happyness ;)
[09:58] <databuddy> compy in ter mailzorz :>
[09:59] <kalman> my question is, if instead I was installing Tribe 3 CD which KDE whould I have installed ?
[10:00] <kalman> if I see on the web site it seems I would have installed KDE 4 Alpha 2. Am I wrong ?
[10:00] <jussi01> yes
[10:00] <jussi01> 3.5.7
[10:00] <kalman> ok
[10:00] <kalman> !kde
[10:00] <ubotu> KDE (http://kde.org) is the !desktop environment used natively in !Kubuntu. To install from Ubuntu:  sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop , or see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingKDE) . Latest KDE version is 3.5.7 for Feisty, 3.5.6 for Edgy, and 3.5.5 for Dapper. See http://kubuntu.org) for more information.
[10:01] <kalman> ok
[10:01] <jussi01> !info kde gutsy
[10:01] <ubotu> kde: the K Desktop Environment official modules. In component universe, is optional. Version 5:47 (gutsy), package size 7 kB, installed size 40 kB
[10:01] <databuddy> jussi01 if one installed via tribe 2 - any reason to try instlaling tribe 3 if one keeps up with the updates? other than verifying that the installer works better of course :D
[10:02] <jussi01> databuddy: no, its exactly the same...
[10:02] <jussi01> afaik
[10:02] <databuddy> figured - just checking
[10:02] <jussi01> :D
[10:02] <databuddy> i had the install bug at manual partitioning on 3 boxes
[10:02] <databuddy> might try the tribe 3 to see if they got that or wat ;)
[10:02] <jussi01> databuddy: did you report a bug?
[10:04] <databuddy> jussi01 yeah - its known - just gotta killall ubiquity and sudo ubiquity from terminal
[10:04] <databuddy> which then seems to work fine
[10:05] <jussi01> databuddy: ok, great. I hate t when people come across bugs and tell no-one...
[10:06] <databuddy> jussi01 thats why im in here.
[10:06] <databuddy> didnt want gutsy to go like feisty did.
[10:07] <jussi01> databuddy: fair play to you. keep up the good work
[10:07] <databuddy> ^^
[10:07] <Raystlin_FM> anyone know how to set dolphin as the default file manager instead of konqueror?
[10:08] <kalman> Raystilin_FM: I'm interested as well
[10:17] <jussi01> Raystlin_FM: yes, i do
[10:18] <Raystlin_FM> sweet!!! is it a pain to do?
[10:18] <jussi01> right click on a folder, and click properties, then the little spanner, then add dolphin as the first one there
[10:18] <jussi01> simple
[10:22] <databuddy> gah
[10:22] <databuddy> what would be the implications if i had only 1 2gb stick of ram in vs 2 1 gb sticks?
[10:23] <databuddy> i really want to take the system to 4GB within about 6 weeks but i dont have the cash to get the larger size both at once
[10:23] <databuddy> i.e. how much performace would i lose by not using the ddr2 function?
[10:26] <jussi01> databuddy: it will still run ok
[10:35] <databuddy> jussi01 as long as i get the same model is that ok for future ram upgrade to run in twin with the first?
[10:35] <jussi01> yeah, i believe so...
[10:35] <databuddy> ya
[10:36] <databuddy> main thing is mobo only says it supports 1.8v ram which tosses out this 1.9v stick i was looking at =[
[10:36] <databuddy> was quite nice too @_@
[10:48] <kahrn> anyone else have the problem of Xfce interface freezing up when a window moves from one desktop to another?

[10:56] <databuddy> o nice
[10:56] <kahrn> actually the reason i got dc'd was caused it froze when i changed virtual desktop again :/
[10:56] <databuddy> hows finland treating you?
[10:56] <databuddy> kahrn i figured so
[10:57] <databuddy> do you have the extras enabled on the desktop pretty stuff?
[10:57] <kahrn> nope.
[10:57] <jussi01> databuddy: very well. :)
[10:57] <databuddy> grah
[10:58] <databuddy> opinions on whether its worth an extra 30 bucks to go from cas5 to cas4 ?
[10:58] <borschty_> ok, i worked arround the problem of not booting by changing the uuids in fstab and menu.lst to the device-names... i already reinstalled udev and volumeid (and some other stuff)... but /dev/disk/by-uuid is still missing
[10:59] <kahrn> borschty, does the kernel give that error when booting?
[10:59] <jussi01> databuddy: not knowing what cas 4 or cas 5 is... i cant help...
[10:59] <databuddy> ha latencys on ram
[10:59] <databuddy> also seeing some ram without heat spreaders -
[10:59] <jussi01> oh, ummm, still no idea. if you have the money, do it
[11:01] <borschty_> kahrn:no... actually it was the only thing booting, before i changed the uuids ;)
[11:23] <jsestri2> is there a way to read the bootlog? It goes past so fast I can't read it, and there's a fail on it i'd like to see...also my boot is hanging before the command prompt...
[11:36] <davmor2> What would cause the fonts to be screwy on my laptop but not on my desktop?  By screwy, they're about an inch or so in size
[11:37] <davmor2> I was wondering if it might be the intel 945 display driver?
[11:39] <databuddy> davmor2 check your dpi settings
[11:40] <davmor2> thanks will do
[11:46] <lontra> isn't there a new kde splash screen in gutsy?

[11:51] <kazukisan> i dont know why i was a retard lol
[11:52] <kazukisan> ill try running reconfigure see if that helps anything
[11:52] <masterloki> its a common choice naw wait
[11:52] <kazukisan> k
[11:52] <DanaG> Oh, if you want to pause the bootlog, hit scroll lock.
[11:52] <DanaG> However, it sometimes doesn't work.

[11:58] <crysalys> databuddy: dvd decrypter creates an iso correct?
[11:58] <kazukisan-lap> ------- http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30617/   ---- ignore this
[11:58] <databuddy> crysalys absolutely
[11:59] <databuddy> kazukisan which then? 19 or 17? lol
[11:59] <kazukisan> 17 is yours
[11:59] <databuddy> ah
[11:59] <kazukisan> 19 is mine
[11:59] <crysalys> databuddy: what program do I use to then burn it to a dvd-r?
[11:59] <databuddy> kazukisan join me in #flood
[11:59] <kazukisan> k
[11:59] <databuddy> crysalys k3b beats everything out there
[12:00] <crysalys> is dvd decrypter and k3b available through synaptic?
[12:00] <databuddy> crysalys i told you how to get dvddecryptor - k3b, however is.
[12:01] <kazukisan> dvd decryptor is the way to go but you have to use wine for dvd decryptor
[12:02] <crysalys> kazukisan: i have not had great success with wine in ubuntu
[12:02] <kazukisan> is it installed ?
[12:02] <crysalys> kazukisan: I tried to use it in edgy and I had nothing but problems
[12:03] <kazukisan> i find the best way to get wine working correctly is to get the build-essentials package and also do a apt-get build-dep wine
[12:03] <databuddy> crysalys what hardware are you running?
[12:03] <databuddy> kazukisan bah
[12:03] <kazukisan> then download the source of wine and build
[12:03] <databuddy> sudo apt-get install wine
[12:03] <crysalys> kazukisan: no i do not have it installed on Feisty
[12:03] <databuddy> winecfg - set to nt4.0 i think it is
[12:03] <databuddy> good to go
[12:03] <kazukisan> listen to databuddy he has better way
[12:04] <databuddy> utorrent works fine, dvd-decryptor works fine
[12:04] <databuddy> has to be a certain version for decryptor otherwise it doesnt see the drives
[12:04] <databuddy> so again, what hardware are you running there crysalys
[12:04] <crysalys> databuddy: im running pentium Dual core 1 gig ram
[12:05] <databuddy> yeah i wouldnt worry about it
[12:05] <voidmage> is apparmor installed by default now?
[12:05] <voidmage> a dist-upgrade is prompting me to install it
[12:05] <databuddy> i had good luck with wine in most versions to date
[12:05] <databuddy> but then again, what were you trying to run in wine crysalys?
[12:06] <crysalys> databuddy: so your way is a good way to get it and install it?
[12:06] <databuddy> crysalys ive never had trouble.
[12:06] <databuddy> and i'm here to help you ;)
[12:07] <crysalys> I want to make some copies of some of my dvd movies.  But no one can agree on which program is the best to use to do it.  Currently I am ripping one with acidrip but i dont know if it will do anything other than mpg or avi?
[12:07] <lontra> minor bug ... but ... after upgrading to gutsy all my artwork changed except ksplash.  ksplash still uses the old default background.  is there a workaround for this so that i can get ksplash to use the up-to-date version that uses the gutsy background?
[12:07] <voidmage> lontra: I have the same issue, I don't think a new ksplash has been made yet
[12:08] <databuddy> crysalys if your making a copy and want a perfect iso nothing beats dvd-decryptor.
[12:08] <voidmage> does anyone know what stuff would depend on app armor?
[12:08] <databuddy> if you want to rip to avi there's many ways to go about it - crack vobs and reencode via mencoder for instance etc
[12:08] <lontra> voidmage: i thought there is a new ksplash that uses the default gutsy background instead of feisty's wallpaper .. oh well, minor
[12:09] <crysalys> databuddy: i will attempt your instructions and see what happens.  can you send me all the steps again.
[12:10] <databuddy> 1. google mr bass + dvd decryptor
[12:10] <databuddy> 2. sudo apt-get install wine
[12:10] <crysalys> databuddy: is that all databuddy?
[12:11] <databuddy> to get you started
[12:11] <databuddy> tell me when you found the guide and spam me the linky
[12:11] <crysalys> databuddy: ok hold on
[12:13] <crysalys> databuddy: ok i googled mrbass + dvd decryptor
[12:13] <voidmage> does anyone know what depends on apparmor?
[12:13] <voidmage> or how i could easily find that?
[12:14] <crysalys> databuddy: heres the link
