[01:43] <esin> would following these instructions http://www.pendrivelinux.com/installing-ubuntu-to-a-usb-hard-drive/ delete everything that is already on my external hard drive?
[01:43] <holstein> esin: what are you wanting to do?
[01:44] <esin> i want to install ubuntu on my external hard drive
[01:44] <holstein> esin: 'guided using entire disk' wipes data
[01:44] <holstein> you can shrink and use the empty space
[01:44] <holstein> you can do lots of things with the alternate installer disc
[01:45] <holstein> what i like to do... install to external media like USB sticks, and just install grub right on them... you could have an existing partition of data, shrink that, and install beside it
[01:46] <holstein> i would *never* do any thing like that on a hard drive without having the data backed up... bad things can always happen
[01:46] <esin> ok, thank you :)

[07:02] <jalcine> Is ccache worth the extra 2gb of space for compiling stuff?
[07:07] <escott> jalcine, depends... a good build system doesn't recompile unless you do something to make it think that the previous compile needs to be dumped
[07:07] <jalcine> Hm, CMake does that, only recompiling source code and headers that are touched.
[07:07] <escott> jalcine, if you are regularly doing things that invalidate the timestamps on a large number of files without changing the source code then ccache is helpful
[07:08] <jalcine> Hmmm.
[07:08] <escott> jalcine, of if you are building the same project in multiple folders
[07:08] <escott> it was really helpful for gentoo because you regularly rebuild stuff (and it has some network parallelization features)
[07:09] <escott> otherwise its probably not worth it, but it might be in some cases
[07:09] <jalcine> Hm. Thanks escott
[09:43] <fr33r1d3> How long do you think it will take before Python3 is the standard in Ubuntu?
[10:18] <froes_> hi guys.. how can i install  libmp4v2-dev  on oneiric 11.10 ???
[10:24] <fr33r1d3> fr0es_: It seems to to be deleted in this version, but maybe you can download it from http://code.google.com/p/mp4v2/downloads/list and compile it yourself?
[10:33] <froes_> fr33r1d3, i`ll try
[10:33] <froes_> need for fuppes mp4 support
[10:36] <geirha> Odd. Natty and Precise has it, but not Oneiric...
[10:39] <froes_> exactlly
[10:40] <froes_> compiled myself now.... lets see
[10:43] <zeroseven0183> Hey hobgoblin, wazzup
[10:43] <fr33r1d3> froes_: Please report how it goes =)
[10:43] <hobgoblin> hi zeroseven0183
[10:43] <zeroseven0183> How
[10:43] <zeroseven0183> how's it going on the other side of the globe
[10:44] <froes_> fr33r1d3, was able to compile and install it
[10:44] <fr33r1d3> nice =)
[10:45] <hobgoblin> zeroseven0183: it's good thanks - bit chilly is all :) you ok - and we should really do the chatting in #ubuntu-beginners-team - this being logged and support channel :p
[10:45] <zeroseven0183> Alright, sure
[10:45]  * hobgoblin will wait for you :)
[10:46] <zeroseven0183> I'd actually ask if somebody here in the channel is experiencing gnome-power-manager problems.
[10:46] <zeroseven0183> The power supply estimation is terrible
[10:47] <hobgoblin> not me - seen some odd things floating about the forum though
[10:48] <froes_> fr33r1d3, i am trying to compile and install fuppes on my system. installing libmp4v2 now it can play mp4 audio streams... but i have simage-dev installed and it cant find it
[10:48] <zeroseven0183> Yeah, my laptop suspends/turns off even with 20 minutes or so charge left
[10:48] <zeroseven0183> Anyway, I'll look into Launchpad and the Forums to see what I can do to fix
[10:49] <hobgoblin> pretty sure there is stuff there zeroseven0183 - I know that there were some issues with one of the 3. kernels - but I'm fairly positive there was an update
[12:42] <tdn_> How do I make Ubuntu boot from EFI?
[12:44] <bioterror> tdn_, mac?
[12:50] <tdn_> bioterror, nope, just a new lenovo thinkcentre.
[13:37] <froes_> hi .. do anyone knows any upnp server that can transcode to xbox360 on the fly ?
[13:39] <bioterror> those are  mostly for windows
[13:40] <bioterror> with ps3 you could use something opensource, I know :D
[13:41] <froes_> yeah .. mediatomb .. ushare....
[13:42] <froes_> but the xbox is a little harder... have tried fuppes... compiled.. runs.. but gives segmentation faults when updating database
[13:43] <bioterror> yeah, that's why I never purchased xbox360
[13:43] <bioterror> I had original with XBMC
[13:45] <froes_> but i like the xbox games :S so ..
[13:45] <bioterror> yep, it's the winner of this round
[13:51] <froes_> lol :D
[13:51] <froes_> have found this tho http://alternativeto.net/software/serviio/
