| kromar | hi, any idea where i can find a driver for a ATI FireGL 9000? | 19:37 |
| kromar | or how i make this card work with xubuntu? | 19:38 |
| kromar | arr looks like i installed a wrong driver... now the display is all colored and cant recognize anything:/ how can i remove something with console? | 19:50 |
| SiDi | kromar: if the hardware drivers window doesnt offer you any driver then there likely is none | 20:27 |
| SiDi | there could be free / proprietary drivers for a more ancient / recent version of the kernel, though, kromar | 20:27 |
| SiDi | but you should look for an #ati channel for such information | 20:27 |
| kromar | and where could i find one of these ancient drivers? | 20:27 |
| SiDi | on ati's website, i guess.. i never downloaded ati drivers | 20:41 |
| SiDi | kromar you should join #ati and ask them out | 20:42 |
| kromar | hi | 21:44 |
| kromar | remember the problem i had that my desktop wallpaper and other settings got reset after rebooting? | 21:44 |
| SiDi | kromar: its very confusing | 21:44 |
| SiDi | another "kromar" left 30 minutes ago | 21:44 |
| SiDi | but yes i remember ;) | 21:44 |
| kromar | i guess that was me:D | 21:45 |
| SiDi | okey :p | 21:45 |
| SiDi | not the same hostname :D | 21:45 |
| kromar | well guess what, i reinstalled form the downloaded 9.04 (last time you told me to try it) and i have the same problem again:/ | 21:45 |
| kromar | hmm strange:O | 21:45 |
| SiDi | It's your hardware then :| | 21:46 |
| SiDi | you're in ext3 with a clean install from the liveCD, right ? | 21:46 |
| kromar | exactly... maybe the problem is that the wallpaper is on a different drive? (ntfs format) | 21:47 |
| uofm49426 | how would i mount it and have it mount everytime i boot | 21:56 |
| uofm49426 | ntfs window | 21:56 |
| Slonkie | !fstab | 21:57 |
| ubottu | The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions | 21:57 |
| Slonkie | !mount | 21:57 |
| ubottu | mount is used to attach devices to directories. See also https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mount | 21:57 |
| Slonkie | Explains it quite well. | 21:57 |
| n2diy | I have a new install of 8.04 on my test box, and I can't change my keyboard layout, or move my panels around? | 21:57 |
| uofm49426 | why wont ntfs-config tool work | 21:59 |
| uofm49426 | keeps telling me this ** (ntfs-config:23610): WARNING **: /media/windows contains an invalid caracter. | 21:59 |
| uofm49426 | you must choose a name, not a directory. | 21:59 |
| n2diy | I had ubuntu installed on my test box, and I replaced it with Xubuntu. I didn't reformat /home, would the old setting from Ubuntu confict/confuse Xubuntu? | 22:00 |
| n2diy | conflict | 22:01 |
| kromar | when my ntfs drives only get mounted when i access them then the mount entry is wrong? or is that how its supposed to be? | 22:12 |
| kromar | and why the heck cant i turn my sound up to 100%? i always need to open the properties and turn it up manually:/ | 22:16 |
| kromar | and if its on 100% and i change the volume over the panel icon it will max to 90% again.... | 22:17 |
| kromar | and even when everything is maxed its not very loud.. how can i boost the volume so its as loud as it should be? o_O | 22:19 |
| SiDi | n2diy: no it should be ok | 22:30 |
| SiDi | kromar: do you have the ntfs drive automounting in /etc/fstab ? | 22:31 |
| SiDi | kromar: i think i asked you the last time if you were using ntfs/fat partitions.; :D | 22:31 |
| SiDi | kromar: the 90% bug is fixed in xfce | 22:31 |
| SiDi | kromar: it'll disappear in karmic | 22:31 |
| kromar | SiDi: i havent changed anything yet, its a fresh install | 22:31 |
| SiDi | kromar: okey | 22:31 |
| kromar | SiDi: do i need to change the fstab manualy? | 22:32 |
| SiDi | kromar: the reason may be that when the wallpaper is loaded, the ntfs partition isnt mounted by xfce yet, the solution is to put it in /etc/fstab so its mounted before | 22:32 |
| SiDi | kromar: yes | 22:32 |
| SiDi | !fstab | 22:32 |
| ubottu | The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions | 22:32 |
| SiDi | here are some resources | 22:32 |
| SiDi | kromar: as for its not very loud, there are 2 clues : go to xfce4-mixer, properties, check every box, max out PCM / Headphones too (and maybe other tracks too) | 22:33 |
| SiDi | and the second possibility is that your card model isnt exactly recognised, but we'll see this after fstab and after you checked the tracks | 22:33 |
| kromar | i already tested every slider, but anything other than front,speaker and master there is no change in volume | 22:34 |
| SiDi | ok then | 22:35 |
| SiDi | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto | 22:35 |
| SiDi | and at the bottom of the french doc there is a quite accurate list of most common models (read the english one first :p) http://doc.ubuntu-fr.org/audio_intel_hda | 22:36 |
| kromar | ok ok first the fstab, that has priority^ | 22:37 |
| kromar | ok looks like there is only the floppy and dvd in fstab | 22:39 |
| SiDi | indeed ;) | 22:42 |
| SiDi | check the tuxfiles.org link above | 22:42 |
| SiDi | it has examples as far as i recall | 22:42 |
| kromar | yeah im reading how to set up the other drives:D | 22:42 |
| SiDi | i need to reboot, brb | 22:43 |
| kromar | kk | 22:43 |
| kromar | SiDi: can you take a look at this line and tell me if its correct? /dev/sdb1/media/Seagatentfsauto01 | 22:52 |
| SiDi | it looks ok | 22:52 |
| kromar | the mount point is correct like that? | 22:53 |
| SiDi | turn "auto" into "defaults, auto" | 22:53 |
| SiDi | yeh | 22:53 |
| SiDi | type sudo mount -a to check | 22:53 |
| kromar | the folder exists like that in /media | 22:54 |
| SiDi | i hope it does | 22:54 |
| SiDi | any error appearing when you type the command ? | 22:55 |
| kromar | nope | 22:55 |
| kromar | nothing, just new line in the terminal | 22:55 |
| kromar | there is an entry in fstab like UUID=f53140ac-ee0a-4b08-8d4a-8e60d2d835de ..... is that my xubuntu partition? | 22:56 |
| kromar | gona reboot and see if it works | 22:59 |
| kromar | wohoo seems to work:D | 23:01 |
| kromar | arr but sound again at 0% | 23:02 |
| SiDi | ookey :P | 23:04 |
| SiDi | as for sound, open xfce4-mixer and unmute every track | 23:04 |
| SiDi | <hda | 23:04 |
| SiDi | !hda | 23:04 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about hda | 23:04 |
| SiDi | ffs | 23:04 |
| SiDi | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto | 23:04 |
| kromar | where is this mixer? is it the one in the control panel? | 23:05 |
| SiDi | click the sound button in the panel | 23:06 |
| kromar | thx got it | 23:06 |
| kromar | gona read that page and see if it fixes my problem | 23:06 |
| kromar | btw why does blender not get updated in the package manager? its already v2.49a out and its still 2.48 in the downloader o_O | 23:07 |
| SiDi | !info blender jaunty | 23:07 |
| ubottu | blender (source: blender): Very fast and versatile 3D modeller/renderer. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.48a+dfsg-1ubuntu3 (jaunty), package size 9881 kB, installed size 25480 kB | 23:07 |
| SiDi | The way Ubuntu works : every release, all the packages are updated in the whole ubuntu repositories | 23:07 |
| SiDi | by the meanwhile, only security fixes and sometimes important feature fixes are added to the updates | 23:08 |
| SiDi | to avoid breaking working apps (even if it'd happen 1/1000 for 1/10000 users, its still annoying) | 23:08 |
| SiDi | so you have several possibilities : 1) wait | 2) find a ubuntu repository for blender (https://launchpad.net/blender is a good start) | 3) download and compile source (bad idea) | 23:09 |
| kromar | why is compiling a bad idea? | 23:09 |
| SiDi | because :] | 23:11 |
| kromar | well blender 2.49 is out for some month now if im not wrong... so how long will it take for the new version to be available? | 23:11 |
| SiDi | because the deb installed with the package manager will also be managed by it | 23:11 |
| SiDi | the correct way to go would be : 1) compile | 2) package | 3) install | 23:11 |
| SiDi | and you dont wanna try 2) | 23:11 |
| SiDi | kromar: as i said, it'll take up to 6 months | 23:12 |
| SiDi | !info blender karmic | 23:12 |
| ubottu | blender (source: blender): Very fast and versatile 3D modeller/renderer. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.48a+dfsg-1ubuntu3 (karmic), package size 9881 kB, installed size 25480 kB | 23:12 |
| SiDi | It's actually gonna be done before 17th of august | 23:12 |
| SiDi | but jaunty wont have it | 23:12 |
| SiDi | https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-bleedingedge/+archive/ppa | 23:13 |
| kromar | by august 2.5 might be available... | 23:13 |
| kromar | if i download a packed blender, how do i install that? | 23:16 |
| SiDi | before 17th of august, blender will pass from 2.48 to 2.##, ## being the last stable release | 23:16 |
| SiDi | use the link above and install the PPA | 23:16 |
| kromar | thats a link to blender 2.45 | 23:17 |
| SiDi | oh | 23:17 |
| SiDi | didnt notice they stopped uploading | 23:17 |
| SiDi | http://www.blender.org/download/get-blender/ | 23:18 |
| SiDi | download the ubuntu .deb | 23:18 |
| SiDi | not the source | 23:18 |
| SiDi | and then double click on the .deb file whenyou have i | 23:18 |
| SiDi | t | 23:18 |
| kromar | oh didnt see that one:O | 23:18 |
| kromar | you think its possible to install the 32 and the 64 bit version? | 23:19 |
| SiDi | install the one you need | 23:24 |
| SiDi | if you're on a 32b install, use the 32b one | 23:24 |
| kromar | i normally work with the 64bit version but do some stuff for crysis from time to ttime and the exporter only works with the 32 bit version:/ | 23:25 |
| kromar | thats why im asking^ | 23:25 |
| SiDi | it has no importance :) | 23:26 |
| SiDi | 32/64 refers to your CPU's architecture | 23:26 |
| SiDi | not to the files you generate | 23:26 |
| kromar | yeah but i prefer having some more ram available when rendering some huge scenes | 23:27 |
| kromar | hmm having some problems with the sound setup... | 23:31 |
| kromar | it says i should add the model to the end of sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base, but the file is empty | 23:32 |
| kromar | so what exactly should be in that file? | 23:32 |
| SiDi | alsa-base.conf | 23:33 |
| SiDi | i'll update the wiki | 23:33 |
| kromar | also it says to search for the model in ALSA-Configuration.txt but i cant find my model in there | 23:34 |
| SiDi | what model is it ? | 23:41 |
| kromar | Realtek ALC889A | 23:42 |
| kromar | why is it that when my default browser is opera the links in the Add/remove application will open firefox? | 23:44 |
| SiDi | where does it say its default ? | 23:46 |
| SiDi | Apps -> Params -> Favourite apps | 23:46 |
| SiDi | Opera can claim to be default, but usually they epicly fail at implementing this kind of function | 23:47 |
| kromar | i acctually set the web browser in "Prefered Applications" | 23:47 |
| kromar | but thats a good idea to set it in opere, might acctually fix that^ | 23:48 |
| SiDi | it wont | 23:48 |
| SiDi | kromar: no idea for your browser | 23:49 |
| kromar | i know but cant hurt to try:O | 23:49 |
| SiDi | if you want me to give you your model i need the WHOLE name of the chipset + laptop name | 23:49 |
| kromar | but why does the link open with ff crap when i set the default to opera? | 23:49 |
| kromar | its not a laptop o_O | 23:50 |
| kromar | is that howto for laptops? | 23:50 |
| SiDi | its howto for intel hda | 23:51 |
| SiDi | usually they're in laptops :P | 23:51 |
| kromar | ok i dont have any intel stuff in this system... | 23:51 |
| SiDi | you do :P | 23:53 |
| kromar | where? | 23:53 |
| SiDi | try this as a model ac97_quirk | 23:53 |
| SiDi | inside your soundcard | 23:53 |
| SiDi | 6track-dig usually works on many desktop mobos too | 23:54 |
| kromar | Kernel driver in use: HDA Intel Kernel modules: snd-hda-intel | 23:58 |
