[02:06] <patoe1> how do i do that?
[02:06] <gaurdro> sudo apt-get install build-essential
[02:06] <gaurdro> it contains most of the stuff that is commonly required to compile code in ubuntu
[02:07] <pc-illiterate> not working
[02:07] <kid> Greetings.
[02:08] <patoe1> its asking for a cd
[02:08] <pc-illiterate> yes
[02:08] <pc-illiterate> i changed install path...that matter ? didnt think so
[02:09] <Devine> I have a strange problem - I can ping everything (via ethernet) but I cannot get on the net or use repositories.
[02:10] <danielm> Devine, DNS (?)
[02:10] <Devine> na, works fine.
[02:10] <gaurdro> open synaptic and go to system->Synaptic then on the menu click  settings-> repositories-ubuntu software  and uncheck the cd option
[02:11] <Devine> I get an IP by DHCP
[02:20] <slimjimflim> anybody know how to get roxen4 to shut down, i tried removing packages, and /etc/init.d/roxen4 STOPping it
[02:21] <slimjimflim> er stopPING
[02:22] <gaurdro> killall roxen4  ?
[02:23] <pc-illiterate> i still cant mount this cd...but maybe it has
[02:23] <slimjimflim> ps -A|grep roxen returns nothing
[02:24] <gaurdro> slimjimflim are you sure it's running?
[02:24] <slimjimflim> when i go to my site in lynx it says it is
[02:25] <slimjimflim> it's like 'this is the default roxen page' or something
[02:52] <BrunoXLambert> Is it normal that it's a pain to have compiz in Xubuntu?
[03:05] <oem> hey guys, does anybody yet have any experience with the Magento Commerce suite?
[03:26] <Stroganoff> oem: go to #magento
[03:26] <Stroganoff> or #ubuntu-offtopic #linux
[03:26] <gNewPower> Hi, I am using an updated version of Xubuntu and I notice that even though Xubuntu is very proc-efficient my 1GHz proc is almost constantly pushed to the max by Firefox.  Is this normal?!
[03:27] <Stroganoff> gNewPower nope
[03:27] <Stroganoff> i would install swiftfox, it's the new (faster) firefox3 optimized for your cpu arch
[03:28] <Stroganoff> http://getswiftfox.com/deb.htm
[03:28] <gNewPower> Stroganoff: I have 512MB of RAM and they are never used fully,  But the proc is really running at 90-100% when I browse.  Can you think of a reason?
[03:28] <Stroganoff> gNewPower you have checked with xfce task manager that firefox uses these resouces?
[03:28] <Stroganoff> are any plugins running, flash for example?
[03:28] <Stroganoff> firefox should not take any cpu% if not loading websites or playing animations
[03:29] <gNewPower> Stroganoff: I used the XFCE4 applet which shows how much proc power is used
[03:29] <Stroganoff> gNewPower: alt+f2 ->  xfce4-taskmanager
[03:29] <gNewPower> Stroganoff: websites which pull lots of power are gmail and sites with Youtube videos
[03:30] <gNewPower> Stroganoff:once they are fully loaded (1-2min) the stuff clams down
[03:30] <Stroganoff> i think firefox2 on linux has some kind of javascript bug
[03:30] <gNewPower> I meant "calms down"
[03:30] <Stroganoff> try swiftfox: http://getswiftfox.com/deb.htm
[03:31] <gNewPower> ok, I will.
[03:31] <Stroganoff> it's firefox3
[03:31] <gNewPower> why "stroganoff"?  You like beef or are you Russian?
[03:31] <Stroganoff> neither
[03:31] <gNewPower> oh, ok.
[03:31] <Stroganoff> http://www.dragnet.de/telesound/images/fhollaender.jpg
[03:32] <gNewPower> how is the smoking guy?
[03:32] <gNewPower> I meant who
[03:33] <Stroganoff> Friedrich Hollaender
[03:33] <gNewPower> we will have to continue this another time, I need to run, sorry.  many thanks and have a great evening!
[06:55] <Damion> Howdy
[07:07] <Damion> So I tried to install linux twice unsuccessfully: once off of a ubuntu factory-supplied disk and a home-burnt xubuntu disk.
[07:07] <Damion> Both times when I tried selecting "Start or Install", "Start in safe graphics mode", or "Check CD Integrity", it directed me to a prompt-like program called busybox
[07:07] <Damion> where after a short pause, it spat out the following lines:
[07:07] <Damion> exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x0 action 0x2 frozen
[07:07] <Damion> cmd c8/00:08:00:00:00/00:00:00:00:00/e0 tag 0 cdb 0x0 data 4096 in
[07:07] <Damion> (those last two repeated three times)
[07:07] <Damion> sd 2:0:0:0: [sdb] Assuming drive cache: write through
[07:07] <Damion> (repeated once)
[07:45] <ScriptDevil> the beta installer hangs in the partitioner screen. Actually the partitioner doesnt open up
[08:12] <Iskr> it happens to me once
[08:13] <Iskr> if it is beta, wait for the release =P

[12:03] <Nique666> ah, that's true TheSheep, having somewhat of a mental block I suppose
[12:12] <Nique666> i tried the automatically mount partitions script, and got the msg; already in /etc/fstab i'm assuming this means they're already mounted? but how do I access them? When I first put in the Xubuntu CD they appeared on the desktop, but now that i've installed they dont
[12:16] <totalwormage> they probably swim around in /media
[12:17] <Nique666> they do, but there's nothing in them
[12:22] <Nique666> so what should i do to see the contents of these partitions; before installation the Xubuntu live CD saw the contents, and i know they still have stuff on since my XP install still sees them
[12:43] <Nique666> guys?
[12:48] <totalwormage> what kind of filesystem are they?

[13:02] <DoruHush> Hello
[13:03] <Kubuntu_isok> It's pretty quiet in here
[13:03] <DoruHush> I want to run xubuntu Live CD but it ask me for an user name and a password (xubuntu 8.04)
[13:05] <DoruHush> I had a similar problem with an ubuntu live cd (7.10) and I put ubuntu to the username field and it work
[13:05] <DoruHush> but in xubuntu live cd it won't work
[13:06] <Kubuntu_isok> "xUbuntu, the user name change. Now it's "ubuntu" without password. ..."  Maybe that will work ?
[13:07] <DoruHush> I will try that too
[14:10] <pc-illiterate> i have an installer that tells me "export the environment variable 'SETUP_CDROM'=/mnt/cdrom"        what am i doing ? im lost
[14:11] <ablomen> pc-illiterate, what are you installing exactly?
[14:12] <pc-illiterate> tactical ops...game
[14:13] <ablomen> http://icculus.org/~ravage/tacticalops/do_not_link_to_these_files/tacticalops-3.5.0-install-x86.run.txt
[14:13] <pc-illiterate> bah...dont want the 3.5 upgrade
[14:13] <pc-illiterate> but thanks. read it
[14:15] <pc-illiterate> and it is the same installer i have
[14:15] <pc-illiterate> did you read that text at all ?
[14:15] <ablomen> yep
[14:16] <pc-illiterate> ote: You MUST export the 'SETUP_CDROM' environment variable as a pre-install script relies on this.  Change the path to match your system cdrom mount point.
[14:16] <pc-illiterate> ok...change cd path ?
[14:16] <ablomen>     export SETUP_CDROM=/mnt/cdrom
[14:16] <ablomen> its in the text
[14:17] <pc-illiterate> export SET_UP_CDROM=/mnt/cdrom0     ?
[14:17] <pc-illiterate> i am totally new and trying to get the hang of ubuntu so please bear with me
[14:18] <ablomen> did you insert the cd?
[14:18] <pc-illiterate> yep
[14:18] <pc-illiterate> mounted too as far as i know
[14:18] <ablomen> ok then try "mount | grep cdrom"
[14:18] <pc-illiterate> i can list the files on the cd
[14:19] <ablomen> then you'll see the mount point
[14:19] <pc-illiterate> ok and the mnt/dev/cdrom is right ?
[14:19] <ablomen> nah it should be /media
[14:19] <pc-illiterate> ok...had that before
[14:20] <ablomen> ok so you enter export SETUP_CDROM=/media/cdrom
[14:21] <pc-illiterate> the grep command...spit out buncha stuff... lol
[14:21] <ablomen> hehe
[14:22] <pc-illiterate> the dev/scd0 is my point ?
[14:22] <ablomen> nah
[14:22] <pc-illiterate> cdrom0 ?
[14:22] <ablomen> if you do ls /media/cdrom/ do you get anything?
[14:23] <pc-illiterate> sure....files on cd
[14:23] <ablomen> ok then the mountpoint is /media/cdrom
[14:23] <pc-illiterate> that means its mounted right ?
[14:23] <ablomen> so you can do export SETUP_CDROM=/media/cdrom
[14:23] <ablomen> and then run the installer
[14:23] <ablomen> yeah its mounted :)
[14:23] <pc-illiterate> cool. gunna try again
[14:25] <pc-illiterate> and i need to use sudo sh to run right ?
[14:26] <ablomen> yeah
[14:26] <pc-illiterate> ok... hope this works
[14:26]  * ablomen crosses fingers
[14:26] <pc-illiterate> lol
[14:26] <pc-illiterate> grrrr. tells me to mount cd
[14:27] <ablomen> hmm you did the export thing?
[14:27] <pc-illiterate> i can do it line by line right ?
[14:27] <pc-illiterate> yep
[14:28] <ablomen> hmm then try entering sudo su, do the export command and then run the installer
[14:29] <pc-illiterate> sudo su export SETUP_CDROM blah blah ?
[14:29] <ablomen> nah sorry in 3 lines
[14:30] <ablomen> so first sudo su <enter> export stuff <enter> sh installer <enter>
[14:31] <pc-illiterate> cant open the .run
[14:31] <ablomen> hmm
[14:32] <ablomen> what error do you get?
[14:32] <pc-illiterate> sh: cant open tactical.........run
[14:33] <ablomen> hmm
[14:34] <ablomen> and your in the right dir?
[14:35] <pc-illiterate>  says root@blank:/home/bryan#    im at desktop right ?
[14:35] <ablomen> nah
[14:35] <pc-illiterate> great
[14:35] <ablomen> Desktop is /home/bryan/Desktop
[14:35] <MacTaylor> can xubuntu run on 128Mb ram?
[14:35] <ablomen> MacTaylor, sure
[14:36] <ablomen> MacTaylor, wont be lightning fast but it should work
[14:36] <ablomen> you may have to use the alternate install cd though (id recommend it anyway)
[14:37] <pc-illiterate> well if im running from here... wtf did i do wrong ?
[14:37] <pc-illiterate> yep...alt cd
[14:37] <MacTaylor> i always use alt installer anyways since live cd always fails on me for sumreason
[14:37] <ablomen> ok :)
[14:37] <pc-illiterate> you get a black screen MacTaylor ?
[14:38] <MacTaylor> on the live cd
[14:38] <ablomen> anyway i have to go, sorry i cant help you further pc-illiterate, you might wanna try #ubuntu
[14:38] <pc-illiterate> thanks anyway man
[14:38] <pc-illiterate> you did more than i knew
[14:38] <ablomen> hehe np, good luck!
[14:38] <pc-illiterate> thanks

[22:39] <SnakeyeS> Can someone here PLEASE help me with getting started?
[22:39] <SnakeyeS> I have the cd burned
[22:40] <SnakeyeS> Installing on a Dell Latitude without an internal cd drive.  I have a usb cdrom
[22:40] <SnakeyeS> Any takers?
[22:40] <SnakeyeS> :)
[22:40] <crimsun> can your bios boot from usb?
[22:41] <crimsun> i.e., set your bios to boot from usb
[22:41] <SnakeyeS> I think so
[22:41] <SnakeyeS> ok
[22:41] <SnakeyeS> Restarting now
[22:41] <breetai> <Snakeeyes: We have some 3 year old dells, when it you turn it on, press F12, there should be an option to let you boot from an external usb device/drive
[22:41] <SnakeyeS> Can you hang with me a sec bud?
[22:41] <SnakeyeS> ok
[22:42] <SnakeyeS> this one is 6-7 yrs old
[22:42] <SnakeyeS> lol
[22:42] <SnakeyeS> just choking with xp
[22:42] <SnakeyeS> only 128mb of ram
[22:43] <SnakeyeS> Hmm
[22:44] <SnakeyeS> F12 doesn't work
[22:45] <SnakeyeS> My boot device options are...
[22:45] <SnakeyeS> Modular Bay HDD
[22:45] <SnakeyeS> PCI Slot Nic
[22:45] <SnakeyeS> Dock Port
[22:45] <SnakeyeS> Cardbus Nic
[22:45] <SnakeyeS> Diskette drive
[22:46] <SnakeyeS> cdrom drive
[22:46] <SnakeyeS> and hdd
[22:47] <SnakeyeS> Did you guys jet?
[22:50] <SnakeyeS> oh wait
[22:51] <SnakeyeS> I think I used BartPE to install windows
[22:51] <SnakeyeS> will that work with xubuntu?
[23:01] <Midtronic> howdy.. On my Gutsy box, I have this sweet feature where I can tab complete just about everything (subversion, apt-*, etc.).  I just installed Hardy on a new box, and don't have this feature.  Anyone have an idea what's the right package?
[23:02] <breetai> SnakeyeS: Put the xubuntu CD and boot from it.
[23:03] <breetai> SnakeyeS: It will start, and on the desktop will be an icon for doing the install.
[23:05] <Midtronic> nevermind.. I'm an idiot.
[23:14] <SnakeyeS> breetai: I don't seem to be able to boot from the external usb cd rom.  That's all I have
[23:31] <SnakeyeS> Anyone?  How can I install xubuntu on this older dell?  I only have an external cdrom (usb)...no floppy.
[23:34] <AshleyQuick> Did anyone reply to my post?
[23:35] <SubOne> Anyone know why Xubuntu 7.10 would reboot everytime it goes to load the kernel? I've tried 'noacpi', 'pci=noacpi', and 'acpi=off' to no avail.
[23:48] <breetai> Snakeyes: there is another option. If you use the beta of the new verxion hardy, you can use the wubi installer
[23:48] <breetai> Burn the cd, put in in and windows will run the wubi installer.
[23:48] <breetai> it will make a giant file on your windows partion, 10gig or larger even.
[23:48] <breetai> then it will set the winodws boot menu to give you the option of XP or xubuntu
[23:49] <breetai> Or, you can just google wubi
[23:49] <breetai> download it
[23:49] <breetai> and run it.
[23:49] <breetai> it will let you donwload the files you need to do the install.
[23:50] <breetai> SubOne: why? depends on your motherboard, if it has the option to disable ACPI do so. there is also noriqpoll which also helps.
[23:50] <breetai> sometimes.
[23:50] <SubOne> breetai: i'll try that, any other suggestions? I can't install because it just keeps rebooting on kernel run (memtest works)
[23:52] <breetai> SubOne: It has to do with some option the way the kernel is compiled. Some other distro make work better for you.
[23:52] <breetai> SubOne: what kind of motherboard or model of computer do you have?
[23:52] <SubOne> compaq
[23:54] <breetai> Subone: What model?
[23:55] <SubOne> presario 7470
