<1> I'm in the mood to watch a Jay & Silent Bob movie...
<13> amphi, what do you mean 'upgrade' ?
<6> thats nice
<2> lowroad: to a region-free firmware
<13> amphi where can I get region-free firmware?
<13> amphi do i get it from the manufacturer of the drive?
<2> lowroad: indeed not
<9> anyone have vnc commands?
<14> how do you encode .avi to DVD (.vob)?
<2> lowroad: here's a url for ya: http://tdb.rpc1.org/
<14> im using gtranscode
<15> Rug are you still here?
<1> Yupp in a metaphysical sorta way
<15> I searched with Synaptic and Ekiga is not found, am I using the wrong repository or is it not there?
<1> hmm...
<1> one sec.
<15> I have multi-verse enabled
<11> amphi: is that more or less legal than using libdvdcss2?
<16> i want to upgrade from breezy to dapper. I edit the sources.list to replace all instances with dapper and ran apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade.. when i ran it it wants to get files from cdrom://Ubuntu 5.10 _Breezy Badger_ ... how can i force to ignore the cdrom and use http instead ?



<9> anyone fimular with VNC?
<11> iGotNoTime: don't think it's in the ubuntu repos
<1> root@thx1138:/home/rug# apt-cache search ekiga
<1> ekiga - Free Your Speech
<8> so, can anyone help me with this? it happens whenever i try to open an *.avi >>> http://web.tampabay.rr.com/vr/totem-error.png
<17> iGotNoTime: it's only available in dapper
<13> amphi: thanks, there are no flashers for linux though, it's all for dos
<2> orbin: it's your drive *shrug* - as to libdvdcss, I neither know nor care
<1> Ahh yeah prolly sorry
<15> ok thanks orbin and _jason
<15> I will just download form the webpage
<2> lowroad: yeah, so make a dos floppy/cd
<2> lowroad: not trusting removable media overmuch, I've always set up the flasher to run from a ramdrive set up by the dos boot disk
<1> amphi What is flasher?
<2> lowroad: there's also freedos
<18> VR_: totem is not very good enable the universe repo and install vlc (video lan client)
<19> LinuxJones: i prefer totem.
<20> me too
<16> nvm... i commented it out in the sources.list
<2> Rug: he means the utility to write the new firmware to the drive
<1> ahh
<19> LinuxJones: i want to know what the hell the problem is. i just did a fresh install of breezy, installed all codecs, and now this
<1> Same name as an IC programmer for EEPROM's I used to use
<13> amphi: thanks, i dual boot i;ll use that, just didn't want to since it's been a few months since I booted windows (i'm learning linux to get away from windows now)
<11> VR4000: using totem-xine?
<19> orbin: i may have forgotten to install it, wait
<2> lowroad: you found fw for your drive model?
<13> amphi: looking now
<2> lowroad: BTW, if you hadn't ever run windows on that box, the drive could be region 0 ;)
<19> orbin: many thanks, that did it :D
<1> Odd problem that I've noticed with Dapper, DVD burning is slow, (1x on average) {yes, DMA is enabled}
<13> amphi: it's a secondhand laptop =(
<11> VR4000: yeah, the default gstreamer backend ****s in breezy. at least for me it does
<19> i always forget to install totem-xine
<19> orbin: same here
<2> lowroad: ah, no option then - still, more chance of fw for an older device
<13> amphi: but i'll keep that in mind when i build my next box (harder for laptops though since they usually come preloaded)
<13> amphi: any suggestions if I cant find the exact model for my fw?
<13> amphi my drive is a MAT****ACD-RW CW-8122, the only Mat****a on the page is Mat****a DVD-Rom SR-8588
<21> amphi i am on centericq :-)
<13> amphi: ah well =(
<2> lowroad: mine came preloaded, but I booted it off a cd straight off and fdisked all the 'informatic detritus' away
<22> am i online with ubuntu users??????
<21> zandoval yes this is the irc support room for ubuntu users
<22> fantastic - had a time getting here
<13> amphi: so is there anyother way? when I ran windows, I used a program that just ran in the background and let all my media players play all region
<22> jad-looking for info on how to share an internet connection in ubuntu
<13> amphi: do you know of anything like that for linux?
<2> lowroad: go to http://forum.rpc1.org/dl_search.php
<14> how do you encode .avi to DVD (.vob)?
<14> im using gtranscode
<11> lowroad: since you-re not in the US, i'd ***ume you could use libdvdcss2 legally
<2> lowroad: and search for CW-8122 - panasonic is the same as mat****a AFAIK
<18> zandoval: it's not hard to setup but it's easiest to install firestarter, you can setup ICS on first run of the app.
<22> used terminal server in kanotix - itwas a good little programthat alowed me to use a switchto connect and share the internet
<2> lowroad: there appears to a formware
<2> lowroad: er, firmware
<16> is Dapper pretty stable ?
<13> amphi: thanks
<13> orbin: how'd you know? i installed libdvdcss2 but it doesn't do region free
<13> amphi: I'll look thanks!
<22> jones - soundsgood ill look into it - i already have firestarterworking
<2> lowroad: no, not on an rpc2 drive, which all are nowadays
<23> jcwill: I've had reasonable luck with it. Ask in #ubuntu+1
<11> lowroad: did a /whois. what player are you using?
<16> whyami: ok thanks
<21> !irssi
<10> methinks irssi is http://f0rked.com/core/irssi
<13> totem, mplayer, xine, vlc
<13> orbin: totem, mplayer, xine, vlc
<21> !botsnack thank you ubotu
<10> :)
<2> orbin: the drive hw will not cooperate if the region is wrong
<22> jones - any tricks to firestarter when setting up ics
