[05:03] <jim_> Sorry for the delay, Ralink RT3060 wifi card
[05:04] <jim_> this fith one down here http://www.ralinktech.com/support.php?s=2
[05:04] <jim_> its a .tgz
[05:04] <holstein> hmmm
[05:05] <holstein> i would try extracting
[05:05] <holstein> and see if there is a readme
[05:05] <holstein> usually if the drivers can be had
[05:05] <holstein> they are just 'in' the kernel
[05:05] <holstein> OR availalbe as a pacakge
[05:05] <holstein> package*
[05:05] <holstein> from the repos
[05:05] <holstein> like wireless-backports
[05:05] <holstein> something like that^^^
[05:06] <jim_> ill check that repo now
[10:25] <KinkyPinkie> does anyone know how I can enable transparency? it only turns out white when I display the images-.-
[11:02] <duanedesign> KinkyPinkie: hello
[11:25] <KinkyPinkie> duanedesign: hey
[11:26] <KinkyPinkie> if it's regarding my question, I converted types, but I got some errormsgs regarding plugins, so I'm not sure it's solved as I did back in lucid
[11:50] <duanedesign> KinkyPinkie: are you doing this in Gimp?
[11:51] <KinkyPinkie> i used gimp to create the transparent layers yes
[11:53] <duanedesign> KinkyPinkie: ok. And what are you using the images for?
[11:54] <KinkyPinkie> this time they were going up in the panel as icons for applications
[11:54] <KinkyPinkie> if that was what you meant
[11:59] <duanedesign> ok
[12:22] <duanedesign> KinkyPinkie: it might be t he format you save it in. Only certain formats save the transparency info
[12:28] <duanedesign> KinkyPinkie: png will save the transparency
[12:28] <duanedesign> To check if the image has an alpha channel, go to the channel dialog and verify that an entry for “Alpha” exists, besides Red, Green and Blue
[15:23] <duanedesign> s-fox: ping
[15:23] <s-fox> pong duanedesign
[15:24] <duanedesign> s-fox: what was that statement we put into php to get more info about an error
[15:26] <s-fox> error_reporting(E_ALL);
[15:26] <s-fox> Though this will work also - error_reporting(E_ALL);
[15:27] <s-fox> duanedesign,  What is it set to in your php.ini file?
[15:27]  * duanedesign looking
[15:28] <s-fox> duanedesign,  I am on a video call to the states.  I may be slow to respond.
[15:28] <duanedesign> kk, thank you
[15:28] <duanedesign> s-fox: error_reporting(E_ALL); did bring up some additional info
[15:31] <s-fox> duanedesign,  Okay, what is the additional information that is being displayed?
[15:32] <duanedesign> Undefined variable
[15:34] <s-fox> duanedesign,  That is a notice, not an error. You should set it to a default
[15:34] <s-fox> value at the beginning of your script, or before you use it.
[18:37] <Guest57327> I'm trying to boot off a live CD but when ubuntu starts the screen is blank. I know the screen is working because the BIOS screen still shows up while it's booting, and I think ubuntu is booting because when I press the power button to turn it off the CD ejects and the computer waits for me to press Enter
[18:55] <bioterror> Guest57327, what kind of computer you have
[18:57] <Guest57327> Compaq Presario SR1917CL
[18:58] <ddecator> have you tried a second Live CD just in case the first didn't burn right for some reason?
[18:59] <Guest57327> no, but I did try a USB stick first with the same problem
[19:01] <ddecator> and the image you used passed the md5sum?
[19:01] <Guest57327> I didn't check...
[19:02] <Guest57327> oh, but my iMac boots off it ok
[19:04] <ddecator> strange. unfortunately i'm just heading out, so hopefully someone else will have an idea of how to resolve the problem for you
[20:36] <LukasB> Hello everybody! Can anybody please give me advice which source code editor is good to use in ubuntu? I used Notepad++ in Windows but I am not very experienced...
[21:27] <jledbetter> Darn, he left too quickly.
[23:18] <Guest57327> Ok, after a lot of trouble I can get it to start booting off the CD, but now it kernel panicked
[23:21] <seidos> hmmm, i wonder why
[23:22] <seidos> Guest57327: LTS?
[23:23] <Guest57327> acronym?
[23:23] <seidos> Guest57327: 10.04 "Long Term Support"
[23:24] <Guest57327> oh, no: 10.10
[23:25] <seidos> well, for my curiosity could you paste the output of lspci and sudo lshw?
[23:25] <seidos> but, to fix your problem, i'd try the LTS, it has a different kernel
[23:26] <seidos> what do you think Guest57327?
[23:28] <Guest57327> I'll try the 10.4 if this attempt at safeboot doesn't work. Where would this output be btw?
[23:30] <seidos> Guest57327: in a terminal.  you just type "lspci" paste that to paste.ubuntu.com and "sudo lshw" and paste that to paste.ubuntu.com
[23:30] <seidos> i assume there is a kernel panic because of some hardware configuration
[23:30] <seidos> or maybe you should do a memtest Guest57327
[23:31] <seidos> i dunno, i am speculating
[23:49] <pedro3005> Guest57327, is it a laptop or a pc?
