crimsunyes02:19
mcmischiefcould you help me with something?02:20
mcmischiefi want to install xubuntu but it doesn't seem to install for me.. after loading it just goes to a black screen02:20
mcmischiefmaybe my computer can't handle it; it's an 800 mHz 160 MB RAM computer02:20
crimsunare you using the desktop image, the text-based installer (alternate) image, or the server image?02:21
mcmischiefare you asking how i installed it02:22
mcmischiefor which installation i used02:22
mcmischiefxubuntu-7.04-desktop-i386 btw02:22
crimsunthat's the desktop image, which requires more RAM than you have to run reasonably02:23
crimsunI recommend you attempt to install using the alternate image02:23

graelbHi there06:08
graelbI'm having some issues with 7.1006:09
graelb Here's the deal though...If i try to go to google.com in FF, it doesn't work. If i ping www.google.com first from a terminal, then go to google in FF, it works06:09
WarpnowI'm in the process of downloading Xubuntu. I've got a p2 350mhz with 128mb of ram, do you think I'll have trouble running it?08:18
WarpnowI'm running DSL at the moment and am...rather unimpressed, mainly with its package management, which doesn't seem too work very often.08:19
tonyyarussoWarpnow: should be fine I think.08:22
PixilarionWarpnow: I used to run it on a computer like that08:22
Pixilarionand it worked fine08:22
Pixilarionjust don't do anything "fancy" :)08:22
WarpnowCool, thanks for the help. I'm really looking forward to it. Xubuntu looks much nicer than most of the other low-resource distros I've tried.08:23
PixilarionWarpnow: you can always try elbuntu or ebuntu or somehting08:23
Pixilarionwith enlightenment08:23
Pixilarionit's prettu light too08:23
Pixilarionbut you will lose some functionality compared to xubuntu (xfce)08:24
WarpnowI'm relatively new to linux as well, been using it about a year, are the skins on places llikee xfce-look.org resource intensive, or are they just image replacements, or some of both?08:24
jimmywwokay, where do i find 7.1008:24
Pixilarioni guess just replacements that won't take much more resources08:24
Pixilarionjimmyww: jfgi ;)08:25
Warpnowits in the room topic, jimmy08:25
jimmywwthx'08:25
jimmywwso there is no 7.1008:25
jimmywwwith stable08:25
Pixilarionno, but should be out today08:26
jimmywwso i should wait08:26
Pixilarionjust wait a few hours08:26
Pixilarionif you want the stable release yes08:26
WarpnowRCs tend to be pretty stable from my experience, but I don't know specifically about this one08:26
Pixilarionbut it will be more or less the same as the RC08:26
jimmywwbecause along with ubuntu its not out yet08:26
jimmyww?08:26
Warpnowgenerally an RC is very near complete but they're just putting it through a last test08:27
jimmywwokay08:27
jimmywwnow one more question08:27
jimmywwthe machine i want to put linux on is 1ghz and 256mb08:27
jimmywwshould i go for xubuntu08:28
jimmywwor ubuntu08:28
jimmywwrenembering that im new to linux08:28
jimmyww?08:28
Warpnowhrm, does 7.10 xubuntu have compiz like 7.`0 Ubuntu does (I hear, haven't actually tried 7.10...)?08:28
Pixilarionubuntu will be ok08:28
jimmywwpixilarion, what do u mean08:28
Pixilarionjimmyww: it has more features than xubuntu so you should try that one first08:28
Warpnowhe means you have the power to run either08:29
jimmywwthx08:29
PixilarionWarpnow: compiz is not installed by default08:29
PixilarionWarpnow: but you can always add it by installing08:29
jimmywwwhat is the minium specs for both08:29
Warpnow256mb vs 128mb according to the official site, but I heard xubuntu runs on 64 decently08:30
jimmywwand on my 1ghz 256mb machine, will ubuntu work at a reasonable speed08:30
jimmywwbecause that is what im fearing08:31
jimmyww*is not08:31
WarpnowIts more about the programs you run. It should run fine, but don't try to run all the apps it comes with at the same time. Xubuntu will come with lighter apps which make it harder to use your RAM.08:31
jimmywwand thats why im thinking about xubuntu because i hear it runs faster08:31
WarpnowYour machine will run Ubuntu fine, as it only uses less than 100mb to boot (I think, don't quote me, but its close)08:32
jimmywwokay thx08:32
WarpnowIts just that if you load Ubuntu, Blender, OOo, Firefox, ect, at the same time..08:32
Warpnowyour ram may limit you, whereas xubuntu includes programs where that's less less likely08:32
jimmywwill probably try both08:33
jimmywwso what time do we expect a release?08:33
Pixilarionanytime this day i guess08:33
WarpnowAre you moving from Windows or Mac?08:34
jimmywwim on a mac now08:34
jimmywwand i like it08:34
jimmywwbut i want to replace my windows machine that runs slow with linux08:35
Warpnowah, yeah, I've heard Mac users tend to like Ubuntu and Windows users find Kubuntu more immediately pleasing, but once you've been using it for a few days, it doesn't matter much.08:35
jimmywwi definitly dont want to give up my mac08:35
jimmywwbut im happy to give up my winblows machine08:36
jimmywwanyway08:36
WarpnowYou can put Ubuntu on your mac :-p08:36
jimmywwyes, but i still want to use mac os x as my main os08:36
WarpnowI use macs for video editting. Mac OSX runs circles around the older version of the Mac OS08:37
jimmywwyes08:37
jimmywwthere are programs on my mac that i also love08:37
WarpnowI used to despise using Macs, but now I kinda wish they had gone the full way and just made it linux-like BSD distro for all machines08:38
jimmywwfor example there is quicksilver - quicksilver.blacktree.com08:38
jimmywwi cant live with out that08:38
jimmywwwarpnow, what do u mean08:38
jimmywwoh well08:39
Warpnowhaha, my live DSL didn't like that blacktree site08:39
Warpnowfor some reason the browser just froze08:39
jimmywwthe website is having trouble lately08:40
jimmywwsomeone hacked in to it and spammed it, i think08:40
Warpnowopera doesn't seem to play nice with DSL, either, but I couldn't get Firefox 2 or Konqueror to work at all08:40
WarpnowMy main pc caught on fire- literally, my motherboard had flames coming from it08:41
jimmywwwow08:41
Warpnowso I scrapped together an old Pentium 2 motherboard with a 128mb of ram I found an old HD from years ago08:41
jimmywwwikipedia has a bit on quicksilver- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quicksilver_%28software%2908:41
Warpnowand am running the OS from the HD while I download Xubuntu to the HD to install, heh.08:42
jimmywwthough it doesn't explain how amazing it is08:42
Warpnowwikipedia is like the greatest site ever08:42
WarpnowI remember when only geeks knew about it...08:42
jimmywwi dont, im only 1508:42
WarpnowI'm 17, 18 in 2 weeks :D08:43
jimmywwcool08:43
jimmywwwhat is your main os now?08:43
WarpnowGenerally Ubuntu, I still run XP on my laptop because its not so easy to get linux running on it, though.08:44
jimmywwyes, the reason y i waiting for 7.10 is that when i run the live cd08:44
jimmywwi get a buffer error i/o on logical bored f...08:45
jimmywwor something like that08:45
jimmywwand no one can help me with it08:45
Warpnowyeah, I'm still pretty newbish, I spend more times asking questions on the forum than anything, haha08:45
Warpnowthe people on the forum are friendly as hell, though08:46
jimmywwnot like digg08:46
Warpnowalot of the people on digg just aren't very bright. Its become too popular.08:46
jimmywwyes, many of the people like to criticize others rather that discuss the topic08:48
jimmyww..08:59
jimmywwhurry up, please09:17

misfitpierceso xubuntu gutsy has drive encryption as well on alternate13:30
misfitpiercejust to be clear 100%13:30
misfitpierceonly alternate right?13:30

cjae_gladier,13:33
misfitpierceDoes anyone know if xubuntu alternate supports the encryption to partitions like ubuntu13:34
cjae_gladier, and I have not known there to be such a long standing issue in linux except for multimedia playback and that was due to laws13:34

mikubuntuguys, if i only have a terminal, and no gui, is it still possible to launch a browser, AND, does anybody knw what browser would be installed in fluxbuntu?13:42
gladiercjae_ - packet writing is still a new thing for linux13:43
d1n0krull: cool13:44
nikolamI think that fluxbuntu documentation reveales that13:45
cjae_gladier, when just burning random files to dvd, why is it faster to have then all in folders/directories than on their own?13:45
cjae_meaning that the burn goes smoother and faster13:46
nikolamI use seamonkey/iceape beacouse i think i use less ram for mail, newsgroups and browsing then with thunderbird/firefox13:46
misfitpierceNo confirming for me here... Noone knows if Xubuntu alternate has encryption option like new Ubuntu alt?13:46
nikolamBut there are some lightweight browsers13:46
krullwhere are the torrents? I've finished dling x/ubuntu 7.10 isos and I'd like to share em via BT13:46

d1n0i run it on core2quad q6600 with 2gb ram, should i rather use ubuntu/kubuntu?13:57
nikolamMaybe,13:58
nikolamBut I strongli dislike bloated env. of gnome/kde since I get used to xfce13:58
d1n0bloated?13:58
nikolamI also have 2 gigs now but I worked with 7.04 with no problems on 384Mb on p3. i think it is powerfull.13:59

nikolamcjae_: Try to use k3b is supposed to be the best Open source linux burning application14:03
cjae_I am using that14:03
nikolamHm, maybe your DVD is on PATA and working in PIO mode14:03
nikolamChech Bios settings and make it work as only device-maste.14:03
nikolammaster14:03
homebrewciderprobably a stupid question BUT my box is running xubuntu fiesty, will a dist-upgrade upgrade it to gutsy gibbon? sorry if this is a ridiculous question14:05
krullI cant seem to get use to KDE's UI... damn MS influence :S14:05
gladieri find gnome easier and faster14:05
nikolamhomebrewcider: In your place I would use Update manager application to upgrade14:05
homebrewciderthat will do what I asked?14:06
nikolamgladier: Reely? everyone is saying that xfce is much more lightweight and faster14:06
krullgnome seems more win32user friendly14:06
krullbut xfce is lighter than gnome14:06
gladieryea14:06
gladiersorry14:06
gladierxfce is lighter14:06
gladierits been a long day14:06
nikolamI just dont like default ubuntu theme. on gnome it is so.. brown ahh.14:07
gladierup since 6 .. is now 1114:07

krullI couldn't run 710 ubuntu on a p3 with 512 ram14:07
krulland xubuntu booted nicely14:07
gladierwth14:07
gladier...14:07
gladier512 mb ram is tonens14:07
nikolamkrull: Qool :)14:07

homebrewcidernikolam, the update manager will do what i originally asked?14:08
nikolamhomebrewcider: It have button: Update to 7.10, so YES :)14:09
homebrewciderok14:09
homebrewciderthanx14:09
krullis 1:2 ratio with ram/swap still applicable with xbuntu?14:09
krullie: 512ram/1024swap14:09
nikolamkrull: That is general question for linux, I think I still use x2 swap14:10
krullHDD is also a premium here... :D14:10
gladierlol i use 2gbram no swap14:10
krullI really got old systems... p3/p2s with 2GB hdds even! :D14:10
krullthere's one with 512MB HDD! :D14:11
krullbless...14:11
nikolamkrull: Maybe you could set up 2 hdd/s as a software raid. raid0 or 1 for sstem, raid1 for data and raid0 for swap :)14:11
krullheheh nice one nikolam :) I might try that14:11
nikolamI think you need 2gigs of HDD space for full install14:11
krullno! dl stopped at 99%!!!14:12
krullphew14:13
krullits trickling :)14:13
krullthe servers are taking a beating!14:13

f4teall the working says "ubuntu 7.10" thats all...14:22
homebrewcidergood point14:23
f4teanyone done it this way?14:27
scriptdevil*release time14:46
scriptdevilif ubuntu and xubuntu use the same repos, why does the *release* time differ?14:46
vinzeBecause someone from Xubuntu has to be online to release it14:47
vinzeBut we need release notes14:47
vinzeSo I'll be making those in a minute and then I'll announce it on the website I think14:47
gladiervinze ... you a dev i take it?14:47
vinzegladier, well... I update the website mostly, and follow the mailinglist...14:48
gladieraha14:49
gladierupdate the website dammit :P14:49
gladieri was getting confused14:49
scriptdevilwell.i have always used rolling distros as a long term distro. ubuntu is not . so can you tell me if my assumption is right. "I wont get an update to firefox unless the next release is made"14:49
vinzeYou'll get updates, but just security updates14:50
scriptdevilvinze: hmmm. like say rewind 1 year back, i would get 1.5.2 but not 2.014:50
scriptdevilfrom a 1.5.114:50
vinzeYeah14:50
scriptdevilok..14:50
vinzeBut when Firefox 1.5 isn't supported anymore I believe Ubuntu will update those of supported systems to Firefox 214:51
scriptdevilthats more than enough.. after playin a lot with distros.. say about 20 now, i decided to settle down. so i chose ubuntu. no tweaking and stuff like that. just the good ol range of software, and programming tools14:52
scriptdevili better start contributing.. just laid my hands on steve wozniak's book. iWoz.. amazing read14:52
scriptdevilhmmm. a gnomefreak in Xubuntu??14:54
* gladier = gnomefreak14:55
gnomefreak;)14:55
gladierhardly use anything else when i have a choice14:55
* gladier = A gnomefreak14:55
gladierlol14:55
gladiernot THE14:55
scriptdevilhmmm.. ok.. then i must call myself an emacsfreak14:56
vinzeDoes anyone know of a mirror of Xubuntu's Desktop CD?14:56
gladier guys .. if your interested in car computers .. some thing you might be interested in www.nghost-project.com (not spam .. just getting the word out there)14:56
gladiertheres quite a fe14:56

scriptdevillike, i use irssi for irc chat, firefox for web-browsing(cos i cannot avoid it), mplayer for music and emacs for all the rest15:04
mindframe-server isn't available15:04
mindframe-vinze, what's different about alternate images again?15:05
vinzeYeah I noticed...15:05
vinzemindframe, that's a text-based installer15:05
scriptdevilif alone wmii was not screwed up in favour of dwm, i would use it15:05
scriptdevilmindframe-: curses based15:05
mindframe-ah15:05
scriptdevilbetter for systems with lower processor power and RAM15:06
d1n0which distro should i be running on my core2quad with 2gb ram etc15:06
scriptdevilwell.. i386 will do well15:06
scriptdevilbut technically, it is amd6415:06
scriptdevild1n0: your config is the same as mine15:07
vinzed1n0, the one you like best :)15:07
mindframe-well assuming the server starts working, i'll seed 300GB15:07
Greeneryany release note for xubuntu?15:07
d1n0i feel like, xubuntu wont give me full support for my hardware...15:07
vinzeGreenery, I'll be working on them in a minute15:07
scriptdevild1n0: why so?15:07
d1n0scriptdevil: i'm not sure15:08
scriptdevilmine is a core2duo E 6555, 4mb l2 cache, dg33fb classic intel motherboard, nvidia 7300gt and 2 gig of ram15:08
scriptdevilxubuntu i386 does well15:09
scriptdevilwith a 20 second boot time and a 5 second shutdown time15:09
d1n0only reason i sticked to xubuntu was that it handled my keyboard and mouse bluetooth problems out of the box... couldnt get both to work in ubuntu...15:09
vinzeAh, people, the Xubuntu torrents work now15:11
vinzeSo please seed them if you can15:11
vinze(And if you don't know how to, please ask ;-)15:11
d1n0vinze: i'm seeding15:12
d1n0400kb/s15:12
vinzeGood d1n0 :)15:12
d1n0:)15:12
vinzeHuh? I've already uploaded more than I've downloaded :)15:12
scriptdevilis it possible to seed without downloading in the first place, i thought of seeding, but i dont have the iso, so i will uselessly add to the server load15:14
mindframe-yes15:14
scriptdevilmindframe-: how?15:14
mindframe-download the iso to whatever directory your torrent client data directory15:14
mindframe-err15:15
vinzeWell, you have to have something to upload, but you can just start the torrent and upload while downloading the iso, and then keep on running the torrent even after your download has completed15:15
mindframe-wherever your torrent client stores data15:15
scriptdevilok. i have a slow net conn, so i will give 30kb/s to upload15:15
mindframe-it would save bandwidth if you just hop on the torrent15:15
mindframe-xubuntu-7.10-desktop-i386.iso15:16

vinze4.4.115:20
vinzeSee http://packages.ubuntu.com/gutsy/x11/xfce415:20
scriptdevil:)15:20
mindframe-it's running well on my desktop and laptop so far15:20
d1n0and what version was in 7.04?15:20
scriptdevili like it when the channel is not very crowded.. at times, #ubuntu drives me mad15:20
vinzed1n0, http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/x11/xfce415:21
vinze4.3.99.115:21
mindframe-vinze, so why is the alternate image larger than the desktop?15:21
d1n0so no big updates?15:22
vinzemindframe, no idea15:22
vinzed1n0, not in Xfce itself15:22
d1n0ok15:22
scriptdevilmindframe-: because .. err.. it includes the installer?15:23
vinzeBut a lot in Xubuntu - it'll take a while to create the release notes15:23
scriptdevili mean ncurses and stuff15:23
vinzeAh, yes, that'll be it: the Desktop's installer is compressed15:23
scriptdevilgoodbye people15:23
vinzeBye15:24
Sergohello all15:34
vinzeHey Sergo15:34
mindframe-rtorrent does not like these files :/15:37

=== Sergo is now known as RIAA
hyper_chmindframe-: I'm also uploading fine http://www.sjau.ch/torrent.png15:55

hyper_chmindframe-: compiled from svn?15:57
mindframe-.0.7.815:58
hyper_chmindframe-: ;)15:58

cjae_anyone willing to help me setup dma on optical and hdd and hdparm.conf  since  Iam having troubles as the kernel now uses sda instead of hdc and such16:00
cjae_thought this enabled by default since edgy16:00
vinzeHow can I make an image a link on the Ubuntu wiki?16:01
vinzeAnd how can I hotlink images in the first place?16:02
vinzeNevermind, I found out16:05
cjae_sudo hdparm - d1 /dev/sda does not work16:18
cjae_and if I look at hdparm.conf nothing is enabled16:19
brick__damn. that cdimage server is getting some traffic now it seems.. shitslow:P16:24
vinzeLol :)16:24
vinzeI've just finished the Xubuntu download and am seeding now :)16:24
brick__smooth. im installing transmission on livecd to down it from torrents..16:24
theDeulhello folks16:27
vinzehey theDeul16:27
theDeulis anyone able to give a little help? I'm a bigtime xubunu (and linux) newb...16:28
vinzeDepends what your problem is ;-)16:29
theDeul:)16:29
theDeulwell, I've just gotten xubuntu 7.04 running on my intel imac, but the system doesn't seem to have recognized the wireless...16:30
cjaeis dma enabled by default in xubuntu feisty?16:30
vinzetheDeul, where did you look?16:31
theDeuljust using the gui, no terminal, but went to the network settings16:31
vinzeIn System->Network I take it?16:32
theDeulmodem and wired connection are shown, but no option for wireless16:32
theDeulyes16:32
vinzeIt could be that it is just not supported, then you could try using the Windows driver16:32
theDeulokay..16:33
theDeulwhere do I search for the windows driver?16:33
cjaek nobody knows16:33
brick__vinze, if im lucky. ill have it in 12 hours according to transmission:P16:34
vinzetheDeul, you should have it on the CD you got with your card, and then you need a Xubuntu application to install it which I'm going to look for now16:34
vinzebrick__, hmm, that's not so fast :P16:34
brick__iknow.. only 4 seeders here..16:34
vinzeIt says "20 seeds seen recently" for me for the Desktop CD, 10 for the Alternate16:35
vinzei38616:35
brick__wow.. jumped up to 11 now.. downloading at 90kb/s16:35
vinze:)16:35
brick__around 2 hours then if im lucky. i have the rc1, was about to install from it. but can wait a couple off hours..16:35
theDeulah, I didn't buy the card seperately, came configured on the imac16:36
brick__do you know if there is a package selection meny during the install off 7.1 now? as to choose what packages i want and dont?16:36
cjae/dev/sda:16:36
cjae Timing cached reads:   1436 MB in  2.00 seconds = 717.58 MB/sec16:36
cjae Timing buffered disk reads:   56 MB in  3.07 seconds =  18.22 MB/sec16:36
brick__i hate "cleaning up" right after installing.. remove lots off stuff i never use..16:36
brick__hee16:36
cjaeare these good timings16:36
vinzebrick__, no there's not :(16:36
brick__hmm craps.. thats why i primely run debian. but the lenny is so unstable and etch does not work with my gfx card and compiz together:(16:37
brick__so out off the my sda with debian and in with xubuntu :P16:38
brick__vinze,  do you remmember what that "mac look" dock program is called?16:39
vinzebrick__, Avant Window Navigator/awn16:39
brick__they use engage on dreamlinux that is pretty smooth. but i cantfind it anywhere16:39
vinzeAnd Engage isn't much more than a specially configured panel to increase the icons in size when hovered I believe16:40
vinzeAnd it works very annoying because your windows cover it16:40
brick__hmm ok. worked pretty smooth on dreamlinux livecd though.. il try awn...16:40
nikolamdoes open office works at you after upgrade to 7.1016:51
vinzeIt should16:51
RAdamsit does on my ubuntu box. haven't upgraded my xubuntu box yet16:52
nikolamI got 1 question also16:52
nikolamI kind of installed java from sun site16:53
RAdamshisss16:53
nikolambeacouse azureus showed me it uses java 1.416:53
nikolambut i have java616:53
nikolamNow after install, azureus don`t work anymore16:53
nikolameven after I reinstalled java from 7.04 repo16:53
nikolamhttp://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/41076/16:54
brick__you must set what java version is to be used when running java apps. dont really remmember the command though. but drop azureus:P Transmission rules:P fast, light and stable:P16:54
nikolamis Transmission multiplatform and support outgoing encryption?16:55
nikolamis transmission gpl?16:55
brick__dont think it supports outgoing encryption...16:55
nikolamThen its no use for me.16:55
brick__why? what kind off dodgy stuff are you sharing? hehe16:56
nikolamI think ony 3 open source torrent clients supports it16:56
brick__http://transmission.m0k.org/16:56
RAdamsnikolam: sudo apt-get remove -y azureus sun-java6-jre && dpkg --purge azureus sun-java6-jre, then apt-get install sun-java6-jre azureus16:56
larsen_hi16:56
nikolamMy ISP does not allow me to share , if i share without encryption, I am toasted..16:57
nikolamthanks RAdams16:57
brick__ahh i see. change isp then:P16:57
nikolamNo all are the same. No pyrating :)16:57
vinzeHey larsen_16:57
RAdamsnikolam: also, you might want to try deluge, which does support MSE/PE16:57
nikolamRAdams: Thanks Again16:58
vinzeCould anyone check these release notes will I craft the news announcement? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/GutsyGibbon/Xubuntu16:58
vinzeThanks16:58
vinzeAnyone?17:00
brick__vinze, looks fine to me..17:01
vinzeThanks brick__17:01
larsen_larsen reading...17:01
brick__vinze,  do you know how good wifi/wpa2 support on 7.1 is?17:02
RAdamsradams reading... want me to login to make changes, or just paste them here/pastebin?17:02
vinzebrick__, well, it should just work, either with NetworkManager or network-admin17:02
vinzeRAdams, paste them I guess17:02
brick__speedtouch 121g from thomson? was bloody unstable in ubuntu. stops receiveing/sendig packages after 5 mins.. on ndis that is. no native solution as far as i know17:03
vinzebrick__, no idea, you should try the LiveCD I guess, and perhaps you could use the Windows driver17:04
larsen_i see bad alinement in the games image17:04
* vinze goes to look17:04
vinzeAh you're right17:05
brick__how can i check how much ram xubuntu detects ?17:13
TheSheepbrick__: dmesg | less17:13
brick__hmm.. i see it detects. 3gb.. i got 4 installed. isnt there support for 4gb on 32bit systems ?17:14
TheSheepbrick__: or just 'free'17:14
brick__or do i still have to go though trouble with 64bits plugins in firefox etc to get a system that supports 4gb ?17:15
brick__nevermind. livecd seems tohave reserved the last gig for some stuff..17:16
larsen_you think is possible to update with "gksudo update-manager -c -d" with just 120Mb free on hd?17:19
vinze-d is not needed17:19
larsen_sorry17:19
vinzeAnd I don't know17:19
larsen_ok17:19
TheSheeplarsen_: I'm pretty sure it'll fail17:20
larsen_:D17:20
larsen_i'm pretty sure too17:20
larsen_but i'm lazy17:20
TheSheeplarsen_: if you have some spare partition, you can temporarily mount it at /var/cache/apt/packages17:20
larsen_(and curious about the update process)17:21
larsen_ah17:21
TheSheepor somethingl ike that17:21
larsen_i have a 10 gigs hd to use17:21
larsen_somewehre17:21
TheSheepthen it will put the dowloaded packages there17:21
TheSheepit's /var/cache/apt/archives17:22
* vinze is going to update Xubuntu.org now :)17:22
larsen_i can do it by aptitude o i have to edit apt settings file?17:22
TheSheepthat site makes me feel guilty17:22
larsen_ops, synaptic17:22
vinze:P17:22
larsen_not aptitude17:22
larsen_:)17:22
TheSheeplarsen_: it puts them there by default, no need to edit anything17:23
vinzehttp://www.xubuntu.org/news/gutsy/release17:23
TheSheeplarsen_: just mount the larger partition there17:23
vinzeIf there's any mistakes, please tell me :)17:23
larsen_?17:23
larsen_just mount the 2nd hd?17:23
larsen_nothing more?17:23
TheSheeplarsen_: yes, at that specific directory17:24
larsen_ah ok17:24
larsen_:D17:24
TheSheepvinze: the theme shuld have been green ;)17:24
vinzeWhich theme?17:24
larsen_like my monocolor bg17:24
TheSheepvinze: of the site and of xubuntu, but I gues it's several years too late to change that...17:24
vinze:P17:25
vinzeBut Xfce's colour is also blue :)17:25
vinzeAnd I think a lot of people would find green appalling ;-)17:25
TheSheepvinze: yeah, it should be green17:25
brick__is there a way to make the livecd continue running so i can free up my cd driver to burn out an iso ?17:26
TheSheepvinze: depends, nice, fresh, yellowish, spring green would be nice17:26
TheSheepbrick__: no17:26
vinzebrick__, don't think so, or you should put in on USB :P17:26
brick__hmm ok. then i just have to take my time and boot to that bloody unstable lenny install.. takes like 20-30 mins to bootup. doe to some misconfig durring upgrade from etch :(17:27
brick__vinze, putting the iso it self on usb ? that what you mean ?17:28
vinzebrick__, you can run the LiveCD from a USB drive with some modifications, I use that to test Xubuntu17:29
brick__ok. and can i install from a usb driver as well ?17:29
vinzeAnyway, I'm off to dinner (brick__, see pendrivelinux.com)17:29
vinzeBye17:29
brick__ok. thx bye.enjoy your meal17:30

larsen_about mounting the 2nd hd in /var/cache/apt/archives, two questions:18:01
larsen_1 i've just to edit fstab?18:02
larsen_2 i have to chmod in some way /var/cache/apt/archives?18:02
larsen_(anyway, i think is better to wait - i think the servers are quite loaded...)18:03
TheSheeplarsen_: no, you don't add it to fstab, you want it only mounted this once18:07
TheSheeplarsen_: and no need to chmod it, since the upgrade runs as root anyways18:07
larsen_how to do it once the write way...?18:08
TheSheeplarsen_: sudo mount /dev/yourpartitionwhateveritscaled /var/cache/apt/archives18:09
larsen_ok, just the mount18:09
TheSheeplarsen_: better not use an ntfs partition though18:09
larsen_i have problem with the spplumentary hd18:09
larsen_i have the second hd of the pc18:10
larsen_almost full but now i free almost 2 gigs18:10
larsen_i can comment it on fstab and after reboot use it?18:10
larsen_or is better a free device18:11
larsen_?18:11
TheSheeplarsen_: you don't need to remount18:11
TheSheepleaphion: roboot18:11
TheSheepargh18:11
TheSheepleaphion: sorry18:11
TheSheeplarsen_: you don't need to reboot18:11
larsen_ah18:12
TheSheeplarsen_: just 'sudo umount /sev/yourotherpartition'18:12
TheSheeplarsen_: and then mount it back18:12
larsen_ah ok18:12
TheSheeplarsen_: you can't have any files open on that partition though18:12
TheSheepdev, not sev18:12
larsen_ok18:13

TheSheepcellofellow: why do you need to compile it?18:28
MatBoywhoho !! is it possible to upgrade on a Xubuntu system with Compiz already installed ?18:28

TheSheepcellofellow: if it involves compiling a kernel module, then I'm weak at this in debain-based systems :(18:29
cellofellowno modules.18:29
cellofellowat least, I think...18:29
cellofellowI can't really tell. This is sort of over my head.18:29

cellofellowOld bug, too bad it isn't fixed.18:30
TheSheepcellofellow: ok, so instead of yumming for things, aptget for them18:31
cellofellowsays to remove alsa-lib (which isn't there anyway, in Gutsy) and alsa-utils18:31
cellofellowYeah...18:31
TheSheepcellofellow: and instead of make install at the end, use checkinstall18:31
TheSheepcellofellow: this way you will be able to uninstall it later18:31
cellofellowI think I tried checkinstall, and a file conflicted.18:31
TheSheepcellofellow: then you probably need to uninstall the package that contains that conflicting file18:32
cellofellowyeah, ok.18:32
cellofelloweeek, apt-get removing alsa-utils wants to get rid of gdm.18:32
cellofellowhow do I remove alsa-utils without getting rid of the other stuff?18:33
TheSheep:/18:33
cellofellowodd that GDM is the only thing depending on it.18:33
TheSheepcellofellow: you could --force-nodeps18:33
cellofellowGDM? or alsa-utils?18:33
TheSheepcellofellow: sudo dpkg  --force-nodeps remove alsa-utils18:34
TheSheepcellofellow: I think18:34
TheSheepcellofellow: but it will make apt complain about broken deps a lot18:34
TheSheepcellofellow: it's very whiney18:34

potheadrants about 7.10- video crashes booting from live cd. Ctrl+alt+del gets it back though, didnt happen with 7.10 beta build- dunno why since its using nv driver not nvidia  -when using nvidia i usually have to use option nvagp 1 to get restricted to work. Extra mouse buttons still don't work w/o modifying xorg.conf with option buttonmapping. other than that i like it.20:20
potheadoh ya, why does it download language packs at the end of install, seems inefficient since it deletes a bunch at the end of the install too20:22
