zerothisI'm looking at options for installing ire on jaunty (was discontinued before intrepid). Apparently there is a source package in later releases, but apt-source fails to find it00:16
knomeire is what?00:17
knomeare you sure you have the correct (eg. multiverse) repositories ain use?00:17
knomewhere did you read there is a source package?00:17
zerothisIRE game engine, inspired by Ultima 6. Reccomends with ire-ed for editing, ire-the-flat demo game, and ire-rotj (Rain of the Just, or some such) a more extensive demo game00:26
SML1226is there a way to unencrypt your home directory from terminal?00:28
SML1226for some reason my ps3 won't log in with an encrypted home dir and I don't wanna reinstall to unencrypt it00:29
SML1226I can get to a failsafe terminal but not to xfce00:30
SML1226also get random crash of installer when I say yes to RAID but if no then it goes on00:31
SML1226ps3 has weird things you can't do and apparently encrypting is one of them00:31
SML1226anybody know how to do that with terminal?00:32
zerothisOn launchpad there was an unceremonious 'package outdated, dropped. use source package for intrepid'. I understand dropping the unfinished demo games, but dropping a stable game engine and editor? This is prime example why developers complain that "Ubuntu does not give back to the Linux community". It seems engineered that way if they drop developer's tools, and cross-application engines and libraries, with no concern if they 00:34
SML1226any terminal wizards out there?00:37
SML1226owen1 you have good terminal experience?00:41
owen1SML1226: yes00:43
SML1226well do you know how to unencrypt the home directory from terminal?00:44
owen1SML1226: no..00:44
SML1226I sad yes during install and now it wont log in and says can't create {name}/home and I think thats why00:45
SML1226I guess I'll just reinstall without that then00:45
SML1226thanks anyway00:46

__arkanoid__I'm in a recovery-mode right now13:29
__arkanoid__I'm looking xorg and gdm log but it seem all are right13:30
__arkanoid__that's very frustrating13:31
Pres-Gasahhh, __arkanoid__ what about syslog or messages?13:32
Pres-Gas!paste13:32
ubottupastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu.com (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic)13:32
__arkanoid__let me check13:32
__arkanoid__apparently nothing of strange13:33
__arkanoid__Pres-Gas, how can I reconfigure gdm?13:34
__arkanoid__dpk-reconfigure doesnt work13:34
Pres-Gaswhat about dmesg?13:35
__arkanoid__nothing, nothing, nothing :(13:36
Pres-GasYou could boot up on the live cd and copy the gdm config files from there, __arkanoid__13:42
__arkanoid__hmm, I will try Pres-Gas13:44
Pres-Gas__arkanoid__, make sure to back up, back up, and back up13:44
__arkanoid__and backup :P13:44
Pres-Gasindeed13:44
cheesahow do i do the setup with xubuntu when i get to big screen?13:51
Pres-Gascheesa, can you clarify?13:52
psycho_oreosis there an alternative to thunar? I'm getting random freezes for leaving thunar running for around 8+ hours14:21
cody-somervillehmm14:32
cody-somervilleIs it frozen now?14:32
psycho_oreosno I just pkilled it14:35
cody-somervilleNext time that happens, strace the process14:35
psycho_oreosit happens every so often it annoys me, and sometimes apart from thunar, its gam_server14:35
psycho_oreoshmm ok14:35
Pres-Gaspsycho_oreos, are you mounting any non-local filesystems (smb, nfs, etc)?14:41
psycho_oreosPres-Gas, nope14:44
Pres-Gaspsycho_oreos, are you in a particular directory or does it matter the directory.14:45
psycho_oreosPres-Gas, I don't think directory matters, no14:46
Pres-GasI second cody-somerville's "hmm"14:46
psycho_oreoscurrently I'm not on the latest build, I'll migrate to the latest build soonish and am planning to do a clean install as I have had one bad dist-upgrade and I don't want to see another repeat14:47
psycho_oreosas in I'm on the ibex build14:48
psycho_oreosI have had other issues with ibex, particularly with gam_server, not particularly happy seeing this same old process being a resource hog despite several releases after my inital trial with ubuntu14:49
rockohow good is xfs support in linux kernel ?14:54

tonyo1Hi folks! I just upgraded my Compaq Presario CQ40-310AU to Xubuntu 9.04. Got no sound. Please help.17:21
markl_i have a thinkpad from 2001 with windows 2000, what do you think the chances are that the xubuntu 9.04 cd will boot and be usable?17:24
markl_probably 512MB memory17:24
zoredachedunno if it will boot, but with 512mb of ram it should run17:27
charlie-tcamarkl_: why not download the desktop cd and see if it will run.17:28
charlie-tcaIt is a live cde17:28
markl_charlie-tca: you mean the straight ubuntu cd?17:28
charlie-tcaNo, I mean the Xubuntu cd17:28
markl_i downloaded xubuntu-9.04-desktop-i386.iso17:29
charlie-tcaget it from http://xubuntu.org/get17:29
zoredachewhichever cd that you are interested in.  we have a bias towards xubuntu here though17:29
charlie-tcaThat is the one. does it run?17:29
markl_i don't know yet, i was just trying to set the expectations properly17:29
markl_it is such an old computer, i was just curious what kind of performance to expect17:30
charlie-tcaBurn the iso to a cd, and try it. That will give you a real good expectation. If it won't run, don't install it.17:30
markl_heh well of course, that's the standard procedure.  but i'm an impatient bastard and want to know ahed of time :)17:30
markl_ahead even17:30
charlie-tcaIt will run about 25% (my own guess) than the desktop cd runs17:31
charlie-tcaIf you can run firefox and AbiWord from the cd at the same time, it should be usable17:33
* charlie-tca wonders how the ubottu robot times out?17:34
SiDimemory leak ? :P17:35
zoredachewhere does ubottu live?17:35
charlie-tcaon irc?17:35
zoredacheyeah, but it is running on a computer connected to the internet somewhere...17:35
charlie-tcaI want to think sweden, but I am not sure17:36
SiDiyou mean, where does ubottu's home live ? :d17:36
zoredachesure17:36
markl_which browser does xubuntu use by default?17:42
charlie-tcafirefox17:42
markl_ah sweet there is a linux mint xfce release.  too cool.  thanks for the help17:47
The-KernelHow's the support/third-party apps like flash and dvd ability on 64-bit 9.04?18:38
SiDigood ?18:45
