Comments:
<0> theine: no idea. Gonna play around with it. Thanks again for barreling so much!
<1> easyubuntu installs nvidia ATI or whatever u want easily too
<2> slavik, do an install from the linux-restricted-modules for me =)
<3> alex_mayorga: i hate slow inet
<4> TheHighChild: np
<5> burzum_: use nvidia driver not nv
<6> DBO: ati drivers ...
<2> slavik, actually, better yet
<7> hou5ton: iirc there are some boot options that allow you to modify the graphics (something like vga=771 or the like) - you can hit F1 at the boot prompt to find out what they are
<8> is it possible to mount HFS formated drives in Ubuntu?
<2> slavik, switch back to the ati driver in xorg.conf and see if you get the issue still
<2> slavik, afaik the fglrx drivers are in l-r-m
<6> l-r-m?
<9> jsestri2: same here
<2> linux-restricted-modules
<6> oh, right
<10> JP__: maybe by modprobing hfs? tell me whether it works :)
<11> What's the highest quality, anal-retentive, audiophile approved CD ripper for U
<11> Linux?
<2> slavik, but switch back to the ati driver, and see if you still have the issue
<12> bimberi: I'll try that ... what did you mean by iirc?
<3> alex_mayorga: well, you probably don't have gcc yet, so once you finish your upgrade...you will have to "apt-get install build-essentials"
<2> lufis, anything that does flac
<13> lufis, use SoundJuicer to rip to FLAC
<7> hou5ton: "if i recall correctly" :)
<12> thanks
<9> jsestri2: taking notes
<11> DBO, Madpilot: Flac is a little overkill I think. I like high bitrate vorbis.
<11> But something like EAC for Linux?
<3> alex_mayorga: then you will have to make gnomad2, which will most likely be making a driver/module, so you will also need kernel-headers-($uname -r)
<14> I've got a dell optiplex GX 1 that upon boot of the install CD -- makes it to loading the X server, then sometime while the desktop is initializing the thing locks including the mouse, with just a brown background -- nothin on the screen -- thoughts? Can i get the old text based installer?
<6> DBO: quick question, if I have a wifi card in the pcmcia slot ... how do I load the module for it?
<13> lufis, so do I, but you asked about highest quality insane-audiophile stuff ;)
<2> slavik, sudo modprobe <module name>
<3> alex_mayorga: you can figure out what ($uname -r) is by typing uname -r at the command line, and you will have to apt-get install kernel-heards-($uname -r)
<5> johnm10192: get the alternative cd (that is texted-based installer)
<14> gnomefreak, ok
<11> Madpilot: ;) Well, what's the best ripper?
<6> DBO: how can I find out the proper modula name? it's a TI card
<13> lufis, I've always just used SoundJuicer, it's included by default in Ubuntu and it's reliable
<6> ti acx 100
<10> lufis: i like cdparanoia, but maybe there are better alternatives by now
<3> alex_mayorga: as far as compiling gnomad2 goes it might just work, it might not, but if you run into trouble, check that you are compiling with the right headers, and you will also have to have root permissions to install it
<15> anyone have problems with amaroK not playing files?
<16> so... HOW intrusive are these bugs I read about on Distrowatch? I'm considering using Ubuntu or Kubuntu for my desktop after linspire had a problem with my sound card... I was warned to stay away from 6.06
<11> Madpilot, andi5: Cool, thanks
<15> Adamant1988, stay away from the AMD 64 version :)
<11> UzzaDead: You may need to set the output to ALSA
<3> alex_mayorga: you should be able to do something like "make" then "sudo make install" to build and install gnomad2
<9> jsestri2: so far seems doable
<15> lufis, i'll give that a go
<16> Well I have a 32 bit lol. Is it the 64 bit that is broken?
<10> lufis: oh, i thought you have meant good == quality of ripped material :)
<17> All three of my machines are now running dapper ^__________^
<2> slavik, pcimodules might tell you
<15> Adamant1988, well they're all broken to a point but 32bit is not bad at all
<18> Great, stevekl.
<5> Adamant1988: 64 bit is fully supported by ubuntu
<15> no worse than windows
<16> Yeah what are the specifics on these breaks? I have add and just skimmed the article
<11> andi5: Well, yeah that too. I love high quality Vorbis, it usually does the job of transparency. I just want a program that can handle ripping well
<3> alex_mayorga: if you have trouble anywhere it will be with the building of gnomad2
<15> i highly recommend 6.06 Adamant1988 :)
<5> Adamant1988: the issues people have with 64bit and ppc are the non-free things
<8> is it possible to mount HFS formatted disks in x86 ubuntu?
<15> JP__, yes as far as i know
<16> I don't mind non-free, in fact I enjoy it. My laptop runs Linspire.
<19> I now this isn't your department, but everyone in #xubuntu has died...
<3> alex_mayorga: it won't show up in the start menu either so either make a shortcut on the desktop, or make a startmenu item...i dont think either is super difficult
<1> amphi: talking about encoding, isnt there anything better?(than mencoder) (i mean, i am thinking about vmwaring just for that ;) )
<15> Adamant1988, go for kubuntu
<19> they know more bout xubuntu?
<19> it's about compiz actually
<5> Adamant1988: non-free like opera mp3-stuff things like that but running ubuntu is fine
<20> Has anyone in here seen Vista? It seriously is good enough to make me worry about the future of Ubuntu
<16> Yeah, I like Kubuntu a bit better... how is the support for ATI cards?
<19> Soulprop: it only takes 15gigs of hard drive space, no less
<21> SoulPropagation: ubuntu isn't going to dissapear
<16> Soulpropagation. It requires 512 megs of ram just to get it to boot
<13> Adamant1988, generally pretty good
<5> Adamant1988: ubuntu has drivers for it
<15> lufis, still no go it jus rapidly goes through the playlist without a hint of sound but xmms works fine
<19> and 1 gig of ram if you want to, you know, actually do anything
<11> SoulPropagation: I wouldn't worry about that ;). MS's philosophy of security is dumbing everything down and asking the user fifteen times if they're sure they want to do something
<16> I've played with Vista, and I can tell you it'll hurt microsoft more than it helps
<1> SoulPropagation: i have seen it, and the future of Ubuntu is safe ;)
<22> SoulPropagation: vista is overhyped rubbish that most people will only buy because it comes on new pcs as standard
<15> Adamant1988, much anger?
<22> pretty much like XP
<18> Adamant1988, hopefully.
<11> UzzaDead: Are they MP3s?
<5> SoulPropagation: please talk about vista in #ubuntu-offtopic
<15> lufis, yes they are
<16> Ok, Take this into consideration
<19> but MS is getting the distro concept down. Now they're up to 6- only a few hundred more and they'll catch up with linux
<11> UzzaDead: ah, then you need the libxine-extracodecs package
<23> WHen was ubuntu first released?
<16> Microsoft NEVER releases a finished os
<16> NEVER
<20> 10/1/04
<2> !offtopic
<24> Non Ubuntu support related discussions may be carried out in the channel #ubuntu-offtopic. Editor/Language wars are welcome there!
<15> lufis, amaroK doesnt do mp3 by default?
<22> Adamant1988: no software is ever finished
<9> jsestri2: seems fair to me
<5> UzzaDead: no
<11> UzzaDead: No
<15> dont i feel like a noob now :)
<16> Linxeh, what I mean is that they release Betaware
<5> ubotu tell UzzaDead -about mp3
<10> UzzaDead: do not do that :)
<16> and then they just patch it as problems arise.
<22> Adamant1988: so is most open source software - but this is #ubuntu-offtopic material
<1> Adamant1988: nope 95 was pretty good. 2000 too
<3> alex_mayorga: think you can do all that? have you compiled stuff before?
<11> UzzaDead: Do you know how to change the repositories in Synaptic?
<9> I guess many of us would benefit for an MP3 dummy guide
<22> voraistos: 95 was *poor*
<25> how do I know if I have the correct graphics card drivers?
<16> ok back on topic...
<22> Adamant1988: a bit like apple with osx then
<5> voraistos: and everyone else bring it to #ubuntu-offtopic
<15> lufis, i dont even have synaptics on this
<20> What I was hinting at was "what can we do to get Ubuntu on track with Vista"
<15> im on kubuntu
<15> i've got adept
<13> ubotu, tell alex_mayorga about mp3
<16> haha yeah.
<11> UzzaDead: Ah, sorry. Adept, then?
<15> yep, already changed em too :)
<19> anyway... compiz...
<11> UzzaDead: Can you change the repositories there?
<16> Uzzadead is kubuntu that much of a difference? I like the blue theme, but I'm lookign for a COMPLETE desktop solution
<20> To #ubuntu-offtopic! (I apologize. I hate it when people are doing this when I want help)
<25> I have an Intel Corporation 82865G Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02), and I don't think I have the right drivers
<19> they mention gnome repos in there, which I don't mind using (I'm running xubuntu)
<13> SoulPropagation, what, you want Ubuntu to have stupidly high hardware requirements, be vulnerable to malware, and crash a lot? l(
<15> Adamant1988, personally i like KDE more than Gnome which is the major differences..
<13> ;)
<19> but will it work if I just follow the same directions as a gnome user?
<26> does anybody know how to check the status of tv capture cards in 6.06 LTS? I need to check if my WinTV go card was detected
<27> wykd: dmesg is a good start
<11> UzzaDead: The package is in multiverse
<28> wykd, "lspci" should list it
<15> doh
<15> i feel like a noob again
<20> Madpilot: Considering its high hardware reqs, it's incredibly snappy on my 3-year-old custom
<16> Uzzadead can I pm you?
<15> Adamant1988, go ahead
<15> lufis, backports?
Return to
