[04:35] <gerro> I mean lot of new stuff I still want to check out ^^

[10:11] <Dracari> hope someoen can help,. i've decided to use Xubuntu over kubuntu due to my imacs slower processor, i've got the live Xubuntu PPC disc running yet Launcher will not run
[10:11] <Dracari> keeps asking for a password and rejects whatever i give it
[10:13] <TheSheep> Dracari: check the cd for defects

[10:14] <TheSheep> Dracari: there is an option in the boot menu
[10:15] <Dracari> do i need to erase my kubuntu insatll's partition first?
[10:15] <TheSheep> to check cd for defects? no.
[10:16] <Dracari> to run the installer
[10:16] <TheSheep> no, just tell the installer to format it
[10:19] <Dracari> for disc defects i want check-powerpc
[10:19] <Dracari> right?
[10:20] <TheSheep> Dracari: no, you want to boot from the live cd and select 'check this cd for defects' from the boot menu
[10:21] <Dracari> i've booted to it i'm at Yaboot menu of the cd\
[10:21] <TheSheep> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GraphicalInstall?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=boot.png <-- third option from the top

[10:25] <Dracari> that use OpenFirmware
[10:25] <TheSheep> hmm...
[10:25] <TheSheep> !checksum
[10:25] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about checksum - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[10:25] <TheSheep> !md5
[10:25] <ubotu> To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/VerifyIsoHowto or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows
[10:39] <adac> someone knows good tutorial for x11vnc?
[10:53] <TheSheep> !vnc
[10:53] <ubotu> VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely.  It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX

[02:23] <tob1> hi, i'm using Xubuntu 7.04. But if I the automatical mount function does not work
[02:23] <tob1> if a stick in a MP3-Player in the USB Device... nothing happens
[02:25] <TheSheep> tob1: thner->edit->preferences->advanced->configure volume manager
[02:25] <TheSheep> thunar
[02:27] <tob1> thank you, but every thing is activated
[02:27] <tob1> but it does not work
[02:29] <tob1> info: I'm in the group "plugdev"
[02:32] <tob1> no ideas?
[02:32] <tob1> the devices are USB1
[02:33] <tob1> very old
[02:54] <soweto76> Replaced motherboard and used hd with xubuntu from previous motherboard. OK except that "sudo reboot" fails to reboot the machine as does the "Restart" option from Xfce4 desktop or gdm.
[02:56] <maxamillion> soweto76: that actually has something to do with the acpi settings in the bios of the motherboard .... you might have to re-install some components of the OS ... i don't know which ones right off the top of my head but i'm sure there is something in the wiki that would talk about it
[02:59] <soweto76> maxamillion, Yeah, I figured it was acpi too.  I tried to turn off acpi in the bios but then grub says " Error 16: Inconsistent filesystem structure"  I reinstalled grub but that did not change anything.
[03:00] <maxamillion> hmmm.... i think there is an update-grub command (or something similar) that should auto detect settings and update grub accordingly
[03:05] <soweto76> I figured reinstalling grup would run update-grub.  I suppose this is not very important. The halt and shutdown commands work.
[03:14] <maxamillion> soweto76: well, just a re-install will leave the config files in place ... you would technically need to purge grub and then install it again because purge takes all the config files with it
[03:17] <soweto76> maxamillion, OK, thanks. Any risks involved in doing the purge option?
[03:19] <soweto76> I suppose the update grup option is all I really need eh.
[03:24] <maxamillion> soweto76: yeah, the update grub should work and i actually normally just always use the purge option when i am removing a package just incase there was some config file somewhere that i forgot i edited in the past that could cause me issues in the future
[03:24] <soweto76> maxamillion, thanks again
[03:25] <maxamillion> anytime :)
[03:40] <arttu> i got jerky firefox issues
[03:40] <arttu> can anybody help?
[03:42] <arttu> disabled ipv6, helped a little, then decide to manual install it from the mozilla page
[03:43] <arttu> but it won't install
[03:49] <maxamillion> arttu: what kind of jerky firefox issues?
[03:49] <maxamillion> arttu: you mean it lags when you scroll?
[03:49] <DaBeowulf> Is there an easy way to get pretty much all 32bit bins to run on the AMD64 version of the OS or is there a conveneint way to 'downgrade' to the 32bit version?
[03:49] <maxamillion> DaBeowulf: no and no .... sorry :(
[03:50] <maxamillion> DaBeowulf: there are 32-bit libs that can be used in some situations to make 32bit packages work on 64bit systems but it requires some hacking and doesn't always work
[03:50] <DaBeowulf> Yikes. I need to see if the normal ut2k4 bin is really more stable and less prone to segfaulting at random.
[03:51] <arttu> maxamillion: yes, and draws lines when it does
[03:52] <maxamillion> arttu: yeah, i've seen that happen when you don't have the right video drivers
[03:56] <arttu> on more than one occasion i heard it was a problem with the version in the ubuntu repositories
[03:56] <DaBeowulf> Well so I can't just pop in the 32bit LiveCD or alternate one and say switch to the 32 bit version alltogether?
[03:59] <arttu>  maxamillion: any fix will do, but that still leaves me to wonder why i can't manual install it from the tarball
[03:59] <arttu> make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop.
[04:09] <maxamillion> arttu: what video card do you have?
[04:11] <arttu> i honestly have no idea
[04:11] <arttu> whatever came with an hp n5350 in 2001
[04:12] <TheSheep> intel probably
[04:14] <maxamillion> intel gfx shouldn't have any issues :/
[04:16] <arttu> i got device manager open but can't make much sense of it
[04:17] <arttu> i was just told it should be in here somewhere...
[04:35] <arttu> just for a test, i wanna see how the firefox version off the mozilla site would work
[04:35] <arttu> i downloaded the tarball and extracted
[04:35] <arttu> kali@bubuntu:~$ cd '/home/kali/Desktop/firefox'
[04:35] <arttu> kali@bubuntu:~/Desktop/firefox$ ./comfigure
[04:35] <arttu> bash: ./comfigure: No such file or directory
[04:35] <arttu> kali@bubuntu:~/Desktop/firefox$ make
[04:35] <arttu> make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop.
[04:35] <vinze> You misspelled configure
[04:35] <arttu> yeah, saw that now myself
[04:35] <vinze> :P
[04:36] <arttu> kali@bubuntu:~/Desktop/firefox$ ./configure
[04:36] <arttu> bash: ./configure: No such file or directory
[04:36] <arttu> kali@bubuntu:~/Desktop/firefox$ make
[04:36] <arttu> make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop.
[04:37] <vinze> What files are there in the firefox folder?
[04:38] <arttu> kali@bubuntu:~/Desktop/firefox$ ls

[04:38] <vinze> arttu, I think you need to do "sh run-mozilla.sh"
[04:40] <arttu> run-mozilla.sh: Cannot execute .
[04:40] <vinze> Have you checked the permissions?
[04:40] <arttu> nope, wouldn't know what that is
[04:40] <vinze> In Thunar, right-click, Permissions tab, "allow this file to run as a program" or something like that
[04:42] <arttu> already checked
[04:42] <vinze> Dammit
[04:42] <vinze> Wait, I'll download it myself
[04:43] <arttu> thanks
[04:44] <vinze> Ah, look at that, that's easy :)
[04:44] <vinze> You can just double-click the "Firefox" icon
[04:44] <vinze> Or in the terminal run "firefox"
[04:44] <vinze> No need to install
[04:48] <arttu> should i move them somewhere?
[04:48] <vinze> No need to, but you could if you want to
[04:48] <vinze> Mostly you want to place it in /opt
[04:48] <vinze> That's a folder for manually installed software
[04:49] <arttu> ok
[04:52] <arttu> still does the same thing, draws lines scrolling down, stuff bounces around
[04:53] <arttu> but thanks a bunch for the install tips, i haven't read anywhere that you just have to unpack
[04:53] <vinze> np
[04:53] <vinze> And you could try searching launchpad.net if your problem is a common bug
[04:55] <arttu> it's come up in several threads, been trying out anything i can
[04:56] <arttu> disabling ipv6 improved it quite a bit
[05:07] <maxamillion> hiya vinze
