=== RAOF_ is now known as RAOF [00:15] hello [00:16] ubuntu is quite nice distro (despite some bugs I noticed) :) [00:16] bugs in hardy? [00:16] or in gutsy? [00:16] hmm nope in 7.10 [00:16] hardy is the testing version I guess? [00:16] Yes. [00:16] then your in the wrong channel :) [00:16] yup [00:16] yea [00:16] We're way in alpha still. [00:17] so what sexyness is planned for hardy? [00:17] I am best alpha/beta tester [00:18] perhaps I can help a bit with next ubuntu? [00:18] gaminggeek: try the livecd or join the hardy-changes mailing list or both :} [00:18] ok :) [00:18] rafal: there is a launchpad firefox plugin that lets you easily access launchpad [00:18] or I suppose I could look at launchpad :) [00:19] but I was just trying to start a convo :) [00:19] does it make sense to test in qemu or other virtuall? [00:19] gaminggeek: that would be #ubuntu-offtopic [00:19] so I can continue work on stable ubuntu, while doing less important stuff in virtuall [00:19] rafal: I tried the livecd and then installed it [00:19] but it was ontopic for hardy [00:20] anyway that doesnt matter I will shut up now [01:08] how do i get the alpha release and is it just source code or in live cd form? [01:08] jcrawford: state your problems in here perhaps someone can give you more info or check out blueprints.launchpad.net [01:09] well I have the BCM4328 wifi card and I cannot get it to be recognized at all (except under lspci) [01:09] http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/8.04/alpha-1/ [01:09] note that that image does not have today's 2.6.24-1.1 linux, which sports the shiny b43 driver. [01:10] i have tried using madwifi drivers, even the BCM43xx drivers/firmware but it will not be seen with network manager or wifi-radar [01:10] i should mention i am o9n a mac pro [01:10] http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/8.04/alpha-1/ [01:10] that was a test sorry for the repeat [01:10] :) [01:10] :) [01:11] crimsun: is there not a cd image with the b43 driver? [01:12] not yet. [01:12] (which I answered above) [01:12] no you didnt answer that lol you just said that the image you stated did not have it, not that there was not an image yet :) [01:13] ok cool, maybe i will just wait for the next alpha image then [01:13] because i wonder if that would help or not [01:24] may have just sole my mac pro lol [01:24] if so i am building a nice amd phenom server [05:16] how to set custom DPI like 110 ? [05:19] System->Preferences->Appearance->Font -> DPI === macd_ is now known as macd === Sebast1an is now known as Sebastian [06:09] how to use skype on amd64 ubuntu? [06:10] Download it & run it, generally. [06:11] (You probably want the static-linked i386 binary) [06:11] RAOF: it fails [06:11] error while loading shared libraries: libQtDBus.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory [06:11] the lib is therem but only in 64bit verision [06:11] Did you get the statically linked version? [06:12] Failing that, ia32-libs. [06:13] If that doesn't have it, then you can manually futz with things (download the i386 deb with that binary, unpack it, copy the lib to /usr/lib32) [06:13] this is interesting http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=474790 [06:13] RAOF: this script seems to be doing this [06:13] Yup. [06:13] I think that may even be in the archives. [06:13] !info getlibs [06:13] Package getlibs does not exist in gutsy [06:14] !info getlibs hardy [06:14] Package getlibs does not exist in hardy [06:14] hello [06:15] bah, wrong key [06:15] are there plans to put that usable script to next ubuntu? [06:15] I don't think so. It's not really archive material, in my opinion. [06:16] yes, doing it all by hand is much more fun [06:17] Basically, it breaks apt. [06:17] Kinda. [06:18] so what is the correct way to run 32 bit apps like skype in amd64 ubuntu? [06:18] LimCore: To file bugs against the relevant ia32-libs package until it has all the libraries you need. [06:19] But the *real* way to run 32bit apps in x86-64 Ubuntu is to not use crappy proprietary stuff ;) [06:20] There's not really a good way, frankly. [06:21] But the it's only a problem for (relatively few) proprietary programs, so it's hard to really get worked up about it. [06:28] RAOF: so, we do have some open source software ready to replace software with several departments of developers to polish up, QA teams, not to mention hosting costs for milions of users? [06:29] I only tried wengophone, but it didnt worked back then [06:29] LimCore: Ekiga? [06:29] can anyone help me with a problem accessing my raid array. i get an $MFT has invalid magic error. and it wants me to mount the raid device under "/dev/mapper" ? [06:30] RAOF: isnt ekiga older name for wengo? [06:30] I don't think so. Check it out, it's Gnome's official VoIP app. [06:30] ekiga is gnomemeeting renamed [06:30] Of course, it won't connect to skype's network. [06:30] LimCore: about replacing propertiray... in some places I do not see any alternative... like say Flash [06:31] even if I would say "ok lets ignore milions of flash movies there, I will use something totally different" is there any free format? like OOP is a full replacement for MS doc format [06:31] LimCore: Flash we deal with. [06:31] LimCore: Plus, gnash is getting pretty good. [06:32] don't want to complain.. but gnash seemed to have trouble playing youtube even [06:32] Works now, I think. [06:32] Or maybe not, maybe youtube broke it again. [06:33] tested today on 7.10 amd64, movie itself was very very low quality, and buttons in the embbed player flash where in wrong positions [06:33] Ok. [06:34] Well, we make flashplugin-nonfree work on x86-64 by sticking in a small 64-32bit shim. [06:34] mhm [06:34] Which isn't awesome, but mostly works. [06:35] any help with mdraid? [06:35] dmraid [06:35] Basically, proprietary stuff will *always* me more of a pain than open stuff (see the vmware-server stuff in gutsy-partner, for example) [06:36] pbandjco: No, sorry. Although mounting the raid under /dev/mapper seems perfectly reasonable. [06:36] RAOF: on the other hand.. why OS did not invent own, better, flash-like format... or skype-like thing; and make it actually work (from program through QA and polish/help up to marketing/support) [06:36] RAOF: how would i go about doing that? sorry i have only been using Linux for about 3hrs [06:38] pbandjco: Then this isn't where you want to be asking. This is for support/questions about the development version of Ubuntu, Hardy Heron. If you're new, you *really* don't want to be running this. [06:38] pbandjco: Support for Gutsy (Ubuntu 7.10) and below is in #ubuntu. [06:39] RAOF: i am on that channel but no one is answering, so i came here [06:39] LimCore: On the skype front: In what way does ekiga not work for you? And on the flash front: probably because flash *exists*. [06:39] pbandjco: You might just have to be patient. #ubuntu is a bit noisy, generally. You may also want to try the forums: http://ubuntuforums.org [06:39] RAOF: will ekiga work if both people are behind NAT/firewall, and are conference calls suported? [06:39] RAOF: ok thanks [06:40] LimCore: Yes to the first, and I'm not sure about the second. [06:40] LimCore: But probably. [06:40] hmm [06:40] well, then too bad OS is late (same for flash) [06:41] We can still implement flash. That's what gnash is, after all. [06:41] It's a reasonably transparent standard, from what I gather. [06:42] hmm in general I think OS is doing stuff... but it fully catches up after several years [06:43] Is this the place for help with gutsy? [06:43] vincenz: #ubuntu better [06:43] vincenz: No, that'd be #ubuntu [06:44] In some ways it's ahead, in some ways it's behind. I'm not sure how Windows does on network-transparent audio, for example. [06:44] Pulseaudio is *awesome*. [06:45] RAOF: as for skype on amd64 [06:45] can we write a package that will automatically download skype from skype.com, and also install needed 32 bit libs? [06:45] it would be much more comfortable then googling forums... [06:46] Possibly. If that's not against the license. [06:46] or at least write like "Now press ENTER to lunch web browser, click there to Download, and then press ENTER back here to unpack & run" [06:47] No, not really. [06:47] It's in Gutsy-partner, though, isn't it? [06:47] hm? [06:47] Not for amd64, obviously, because they don't support that. [06:47] so.. if we can, then... lets do it :) ? [06:48] Do you have ia32-libs-kde installed? That may well have the library you're after, anyway. [06:48] amd64 not ia32 ? [06:49] ia32-libs-* are a bunch of arch:amd64 packages containing ia32 libraries. Kinda a poor-man's multiarch. [06:50] any plans for full multiarch for ubuntu? [06:50] Not going to happen until Debian do it. That big a divergence from Debian would *kill* universe. [06:51] (Where we have tens of active devs, and ~20K packages) [06:53] Failed to fetch the changelog for wesnoth [06:53] URI was: http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/changelogs/pool/universe/w/wesnoth/wesnoth_1.2.6-1ubuntu2.2/changelog [06:53] I get this all the time, is all ok? [07:26] I have ubuntu installed on a 2G compact flash. it went into read-only mode somehow. why would this happen? I am thinking extreme fragmentation. anybody have links on the topic?

[13:30] BUGabundo: It's java being stupid with threading, use iceatea instead [13:31] so, should I just edit the az script and change the java path, Amaranth ? [13:31] BUGabundo: are you on 32bit or 64bit? [13:31] 32 [13:32] I don't think you have to change the path in the script but sure [13:32] that way it is always set to iceatea [13:33] ok, new prob [13:33] ubuntu's azureus script uses icedtea automatically if present, the original script just uses the default jre (java -version) [13:33] icedtea-java7-bin: Depends: icedtea-java7-jre but it is not going to be installed ; Depends: libgif4 but it is not going to be installed [13:35] libgif<>libungif collission, you can force it with apt-get install icedtea-java7-bin [13:48] void^ forcing that lib, removes some other gnome libs.
