ActionParsnip: not sure what u mean?
nbeebo: go back ot , I' ll look now
nbeebo: Perhaps make firefox your "default" browser?
nbeebo, ctrl+click on the link
hi, how does the package manager deals with different compilation flags? I mean, for example, if I want to run 'directfb' compile with '--enable-sdl', or even if I want to have '--enable-debug', how can I procede?
"Ex-Chat"
dasei, sorry i dont understand, malcom2073 i think i do, havent installed any other browser on ubuntu desktop, balau ok good to know thanks
nbeebo: in firefox, edit -> preferences, advanced tab, at the bottom "Check Now" I think will let you set it as default if it's no
Just a thought heh
cmv583: ok in ccsm, go to general options
malcom2073 thanks, it was
well then I'm out of ideas atm :( sorry heh
is the regular driver module for ATI cards ati?
malcom2073 ;_; no problem lol
cmv583: and set horizontal size under the desktop size tab to 3 or 4
msivanich: depends on your card. some use ati, some use radeon, some use radeonhd, if i remember correctly
nbeebo: http://paste.ubuntu.com/83173/
rww: radion hd 2600
hey rww nice to see you back
rww: Are there any others places to get ATI drives besides the ones that come with ubuntu, and the "proprietary" drives you can get from ati?
like third party drives
drivers*
is there a way to print out the list of flags used to compile the ubuntu kernel?
malcom2073: you could try envyng-gtk
k I'll give that a try, neither the ubuntu or ati drivers work :-/
malcom2073: the only places I'd recommend getting ATI drivers is from the repos. Try the ones I listed above, or fglrx (which is also in the repos).
dasei, thanks alot ill try all of that
ActionParsnip: no cube just cylinder
malcom2073, msivanich: but lots of other people know more than me about ati drivers. I just use radeon and put up with it :)

cmv583: yeah i got that. i think its funny. not sure, least you got it working some, i'd ask in #compiz
mastershihochief-> can you get to a console ctrl+alt+F1 ?
I don't see it in Jaunty even
hi, i'm using the broadcom sta drivers with 8.10 and it was working fine a few days ago but lately I can't connect wirelessly
nbeebo: xchat opens the default browser of your sys, unles you not cópy the url manually, so got to set your default browser
i have wpa on the router
Sweetandy: we should be seeing it in the next RC
envyng-qt is the only one avail, apparently they don't have a gtk version out yet? O_o
mastershihochief, that's a lot of vagueness. Could you give more detail? How do you know it's an Apache problem?
Sweetandy: Officially? It's not going to be in intrepid (except maybe in backports). It will be in jaunty.
ya
oh yeah i forgot to ask what i came here for.. are there any other compositing wm's besides xcompmgr that i can use with openbox?
malcom2073: try tab completing after envyng
Yeah I did ActionParsnip, I got it saying "is envyng-qt installed?" when I typed envyng-gtk
lol
rww: yeah i dont need any special effects just trying to set up a 2 video card setup 1-nvidia 1-ati card. Trying to set up my xorg.conf file hoping to have seperate x sessions
I can live with qt though
oh hey, the OO3 PPA is back up :)
do any of you have broadcom wireless cards and are using wpa?
n8tuser: yes i can ctrl+alt+f1
ActionParsnip: thanx. new to ubuntu how do i go to #compiz?
and intrepid
cmv /j #Channelname
Hi there. My USB printer was working fine but all of a sudden it stopped working after trying to print something else. It's detected in my Printers, and print jobs are sent to the queue but it just hangs at "processing"
malcom2073: you could try qt, you will install qt libs but if you dont mind the bloat go for it, it might be too bad
Jack_Sparrow: /join #channelname the RFC dosent not specify that alias must be defined :P
/join
ActionParsnip: I write in qt, so I already have the libs :P
running /etc/init.d/cups status returns: cupsd is running .. so I'm at a loss at what could be wrong. any tiops?
malcom2073 What?
nduff: whenever i go to sites where i am loading images from my localhost my system stops
malcom2073: then: sudo apt-get install envyng-qt && gksudo envyng-qt

DasEi, firefox were default, and i tried xdg-open 'http://www.google.com' and it opened in firefox, so i guess ill live with ctrl+click.. well thanks alot for ur help! :D
how do I update from hardy to intrepid?
Yeah I got it, running now
!upgrade | lesshaste
lesshaste: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
thx
lesshaste You must go through gutsy to do it
yo what is the gnome pdf viewer called?
lesshaste: i'd suggest the server method via cli
I have LTSP server and I would like to use old laptop as LTSP client. Problem is the PCMCIA network adapter, which is not recogniced by Etherboot boot disk. Netboot might be one option, but I failed to understand how it is used. Can anyone help?
Jack_Sparrow, no :)
The only ATI driver it shows, I have and is enabled apparently
lesshaste: you can just use the built in update manger from Ubuntu
nbeebo: keep the nights long :D
any other compositing wm's besides xcompmgr that i can use with openbox?
graft: gpdf or xpdf
Jack_Sparrow, g, h, i
Jack_Sparrow: Sorry I was nitpicking, :P
dasei, :D
lesshaste: I think Jack_Sparrow had a brain fart ;)
Jacksparrow: where do i enter that?
lol
yep..
rww, no problem :0
:)
anyone know the name of the program that splits the terminal in half?
ActionParsnip: nope, it's something else... the "Document Viewer" thing?
cmv583 right on this line
nbeebo: screen
nbeebo terminator
terminator?
oh yeah
ok, so apparently I already have the envyng driver, and it has problems too
mastershihochief, ...interesting. Other connectivity to localhost works? Have you checked for a fork bomb in a CGI or similar maliciousness?
graft: i'd use xpdf personally, its nice and light. do you mean ghostview
ActionParsnip: no, it's definitely a gnome app
fork bomb makes sense nDuff, i was gonna say thatr]
kk thanks
graft: then thats all i got, maybe someone else can help
nDuff, i have only used linux for 8 days now i dont know what that is XD. I just installed it yesterday so i could use graphics packs on a web based game
mastershihochief, It might be interesting to have htop already running (and apache at a very low priority) while you trigger the problem
how do i do that
ActionParsnip, at really low resolution I can a very twisted login screen, vertical black lines and colours all wrong
anyone? the GNOME pdf viewer, what's it called?
evince
graft: it's evince
So, nobody else knows of any other ATI drivers than the open source repo ones, and the ATI proprietary ones?
ActionParsnip, at really low resolution I can a see very twisted login screen, vertical black lines and colours all wrong
graft I used kpdf as the default seemed slower to me
rww, nope not it, |{urse and evilgnome, thanks, ill recommend it to the mate who asked for it
evilgnome: ah thankee
sluimers: are the gfx onboard or is it a card?
It's a card
ActionParsnip, onboard
oh
not asking me
mastershihochief, that's a bit more involved than I can walk a complete noob through right now, unfortunately -- I'm at work, and so need to be getting at least some level of productivity.
lol sorry
malcom2073: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
Jack_Sparrow: you still using 3.5.9/10?
sluimers: can you boot to livecd ok?
malcom2073: think you are out of luck m8, not so many ppl working on them likethe nvidia ones.
Yeah, I knew I should've switched to nvidia before buying this $500 pos :-/
graft which app?
malcom2073, did you try envy like suggested?>
Kurse: yes
Pokój trzeci
Kurse: yes
Jack_Sparrow: kpdf... or do you mean okular?
ok je suis la
oh what exactly are you needing to do?
ActionParsnip, nope, don't have a cd/dvd-writer
Jack_Sparrow: starting up kde libs stuff is always slow on my lappy from gnome...

When dealing with printers for my device URL, what should it point to roughly? Right now it says usb://Lexmark 1200 Series but something tells me this is incorrect.
sluimers: do you have the cd you installed with?
malcom2073: yeah, in future nvidia is the way to go.. they simply ahve better support for their products
I'm trying to figure out why I can't use the "Extra" visual effects without all 3d windows going borked
graft It wasnt slow to come up, just lagged while flipping pages
yeah nvidia is great(er)
malcom2073: what card do u have?
X1950 Crossfire
voila ma carte audio est "00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) HD Audio Controller"
malcolm what model of ati?
^^ Radeon X1950 Crossfire edition
ActionParsnip, I installed ubuntu via a usb-stick, why?
malcom2073: hmm...
i can paste u my xorg.conf im using that card with the restricted driver
malcom2073: have u tried the forums?
does anyone know why with the latest updates, emerald no longer provides a /usr/bin/emerald executable? I have emerald installed (and reinstalled), but according to dpkg -L it only added documentation...
what is a good vm for ubuntu hardy
did wonders
!vm | aboucher
aboucher: There are several solutions for running other operating systems (or their programs) inside Ubuntu, while using the native CPU as much as possible: !QEmu (with !KQemu), !VirtualBox, !VMWare, as well as !WINE and !Cedega for Windows applications
sluimers: can you boot to recovery console aqnd run lspci | grep -i vga
!fr > bjm101
bjm101, please see my private message
aboucher: virtualbox is my recommendation
Windows drivers have even always been a bit flaky, so I really shouldn't be shocked that linux drivers are too :-/. I'm really not concerned enough with it to use the forums, I can just use no visual effects when I want to run anything 3d
sluimers: it will tell yuo the vga card, maybe you can set it up in cli then boot to gui
!Virtual Box
Sorry, I don't know anything about Virtual Box
!virtualbox | aboucher
aboucher: virtualbox is a x86 !virtualizer. A !free edition is available from !Gutsy as 'virtualbox-ose'. A non-free edition is available at http://virtualbox.org for most Ubuntu releases (help in #vbox) - Setup details at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox
!VirtualBox
!info vbox
Package vbox does not exist in intrepid
aboucher: they dont have spaces
!info virtualbox-ose hardy
virtualbox-ose (source: virtualbox-ose): x86 virtualization solution - binaries. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.5.6-dfsg-6ubuntu1 (hardy), package size 6216 kB, installed size 20176 kB
malcom2073: true, but would u rather ahve wobbly windows? :P
I kinda would :P. I mean come on, I have this powerful computer, and in linux I'm just plain not using the power :(
ActionParsnip, VGA compatible controller: VIA ttechnologies, Inc. Chrome9 HC IGP (rev 01)
malcom2073: go run BOINC or Folding@Home or something if you need to be using all your power :P
Lol
malcom2073: the radeon drivers are just borked
Ok problem.... I had vista installed on my computer and just installed Ubuntu but grub never found my Vista install and I can only get to linux. What menu entry for grub do I use to boot vista?
graft: yeah, ATI is borked in general
malcom2073: i assume you tried fglrx?
Yep
why does firefox use non-default programs to open files I have downloaded?
Mythril: Edit > Preferences > Applications from Firefox
malcom2073: well, i got a new dell desktop, and it works perfectly there, but my laptop has always been flaky... just never bothered to fix the driver for the older, obscure chips
would rm -rf / delete my whole filesystem? just curious....?
graft: What video card do you have in your desktop?
sluimers: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenChrome
'paul yes it would
ACTION waits patiently for |{urse :P
`paul: yes, it would, and it's a very wise idea to not mention that command in channel
rww: I have everything in there set to 'Always Ask'
ooops my bad sorry
