Sachse_SiechtumHello Sysi00:21
rajguys i have a question. what would the problem be. if the CD refuses to install at all costs no matter how i partition the drive. on the hard drive i formated it to EXT4 and it still says 4 GIG used then when i tried to install it stops and gives me a DVD/CD and/or a HDD error. is the drive filled with bad sectors? I dont finish the install no matter what CD i use. even if i use my external DVD drive. its not the CD drive or the CD itse00:54
raj<raj> lf ( tried multiple ones) can any1 tell me what could it be? i thought the even with bad sectors it still should install. or is the HDD locked?00:54

Dracarii was Reommended by the guys in #ubuntu-powerpc to try asking here about testing a slightly edited ISO of Xubuntu 9.10 PPC that Ha sNo extra langpacks. the current 9.10 ISO is Just a few MB too big for a CD-r11:34
Dracari*Recommended11:34
Dracari(its a mere 6.6MB too big for a normal 700MB CD-R)11:35
Balsaqthats odd, i have 910 on a 700mb cd?11:36
Sysinote architechture11:37
DracariUnless the ISO i Downloaded is either outdated or corrupted11:37
Balsaqoh...maybe becasue its power pc11:37
DracariUltraISO show sits set as an 793MB ISO w/ *( MB free if ste to a 703(700MB) ISO it says 6618kb overload11:37
Sysii can't even find ppc-xubuntu 9.1011:39
Dracarii tried trimming the Unneeded files for 64bit PPC (the target PPC Macs are only 32bit) and it refuse dto even load let alone Boot.11:39
Dracariits in the cdimage section of ubuntu.com Sysi ( http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/ports/releases/karmic/release/)11:40
Balsaqtry xubuntu powerPC9.04 maybe?11:41
BalsaqpowerPC 9.04 i meant11:41
Dracariif i didnt Ultra care of Dual booting between OSX or had teh drive pre-configure dto do so.. i'd Just use  the Net installer ISO11:41
Sysioh right, under ports11:41
Sysidvd isn't an option? you should be able to do dualboot with netinstall also11:42
DracariDVD is And isnt an option11:43
DracariTarget 1 is a 400MHZ G3 that has a dvd drive Target 2 is a 700mhz G4 but only a cd burner11:44
Dracarii'd haveto dismantle em both Just for a drive swap.. Twice11:44
Sysi400mhz sounds more like Lubuntu, depending about RAM11:45
Dracari512MB11:46
Dracariin both Macs11:46
Balsaqpuppy runs fast on 400mgz...i have one11:46
Sysiso much, xub propably runs fine11:47
DracariBalsaq: im more use dto *ubuntu as it dual boots w/ my pcs and is now my Webserver's OS11:48
Balsaqi ran ubuntu on my400mgz machine for awhile...iwas pretty good11:49
Balsaqi like xubuntu the best of all of them no doubt11:49
Dracarii even use a special xUbuntu (not to be confuse dfor Xubuntu[Xfce ubuntu] but is Xbox Ubuntu) fo rmy Xbox 111:50
_Techie_wow, somebody talking about both xUbuntu and Xubuntu PPC11:51
Dracariwhere i should be using actually puppy or DSL for it since teh Xbox 1 only has 64MB Ram11:51
_Techie_Dracari, you running xUbuntu via a xbe loader or have you installed it with a cromwell bios?11:52
Dracarixbe loader but Fully dedicated HDD11:52
_Techie_hrmm11:52
Dracarias teh xbox is Softmodded11:52

clutchIn my previous xubuntu install, sound was fine.  Now I have formatted and done a minimal cli install + fluxbox and sound doesn't work.  Installed alsa-utils, alsa-tools, alsa-base, linux-sound-base, nothing.18:50
clutchAll channels in alsamixer are unmuted and turned up18:50
TheSheepclutch: how do you check if the sound works?19:18
TheSheepclutch: because mp3's won't work on fresh install19:19
sn0mandid you install the restricted extra's?19:20
clutchTheSheep: youtube videos19:32
clutchwasn't sure if there is a sound test or anything19:32
TheSheepyou'd still need the codec installed, I think19:33
clutchinstalling restricted extras for the hell of it right now...19:33
TheSheepthere used to be some example content installed that didn't need restricted codecs19:34
TheSheepsome Aesop's fable I think19:34
clutchI used a minimal iso and just installed the CLI version, so no example content here19:34
clutchtrying to kind of build from the ground up for an old laptop that I need to use everyday19:34
clutchhlysht there're a lot of restricted extras...64.8mb19:35
clutchso many fonts too lol19:37
clutchnope, still nothing.  wtf19:38
clutchI must be missing some package somewhere or something19:38
