<comforteagle_> is there a ruby 1.8.4 package? the default is 1.8.3
<_jason> Sunflower: did you refresh your gnome-panel?
<Sunflower> no whats that ?
<Frogzoo_away> GeekToe: then go into xp's disk mgr, delete the dell partition, & try again - & probly let the install create the linux partition
<_jason> Sunflower: sometimes you have to do 'killall gnome-panel'
<Sunflower> oh thank you
<GeekToe> er Frogzoo_away, I can't format that drive in windows
<GeekToe> it doesn't even show up
<GeekToe> can I delete it in the installer?
<howcomes> http://www.bash.org/?608100
<Frogzoo_away> GeekToe: it's not a format - disk manager - just delete the partition
<GeekToe> Frogzoo_away, but I can;t see the drive
<frodrigu> Ace2005 ok heres the weird thing: which xine gives me /usr/bin/xine, but when i run xine-check it says it is using the /usr/bin/X11/xine...how do i uninstall one of them?
<GeekToe> in windows
<GeekToe> only in linux
<frodrigu> Ace2005 and which one should i uninstall?
<Digis> !tomcat
<ubotu> Digis: Some people juggle geese
<graeme> _jason, thanks ....will ahve a look ..tried all other methods and it keeps crashign xserver
<Frogzoo_away> GeekToe: ok, can you alt + ctrl + f2 to get a terminal?
<GeekToe> I swear I saw a "delete partition" option in the installer though
<GeekToe> nope Frogzoo_away
<Digis> anybody know breezy repository with tomcat5?
<sls> does anyone know how to get quake 3 to work in ubuntu?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
<GeekToe> you mean command prompt?
<Digis> *knows
<Amaranth> GeekToe: in the ubuntu installer you can delete, resize, create, and move partitions
<Frogzoo_away> GeekToe: yes, command prompt
<_jason> Frogzoo_away: dpkg -S /path/to/file, will tell you what package owns it
<GeekToe> Frogzoo_away, shouldn't I delete it in ubuntu though?
<_jason> bah
<Ace2005> frodrigu; so two versions of xine are installed on your system, so go into synaptic, search for xine, find xine right click properties, go to the installed files tab and see where synaptic has installed them
<sls> anyone?
<_jason> frodrigu: ^ above is for you
<sls> Buler?
<sls> quake?
<sls> hmmmm?
<Frogzoo_away> GeekToe: you can delete the partition from the installer according to Amaranth, so reboot the install cd & try again
<fdr> is it an impression of mine, or universe/multiverse repositories for 64-bit have a lot less packages than the repositories for 32-bit ?
<sls> anyone like to play games...
<sls> ?
<sls> at all?
<GeekToe> ok Frogzoo_away, see ya
<GeekToe> AGAIN
<GeekToe> D:
<Amaranth> GeekToe: wait
<FunkyELF> hey guys, not really an ubuntu question...well sorta. I was downloading an iso of ubuntu with firefox. I ran out of space on my home directory. I since then made space and I hit "retry" in the download manager of firefox. It started all over again from the begining. How can I get it to resume?
<psusi> fdr, a few, not a lot
<Frogzoo_away> now I have to step out for a bit...
<GeekToe> wait?
<Amaranth> GeekToe: the installer just uses parted, open a terminal and run that
<Amaranth> GeekToe: or get gparted
<frodrigu> Ace2005 it is installed in /usr/bin/xine
<psusi> fdr, and that difference is getting closer to zero every day
<GeekToe> parted? there's no parted command in windows
<frodrigu> Ace2005 so should i remove that package?
<GeekToe> I'll just do it in the installer Amaranth
<frodrigu> Ace2005 to stay with /usr/bin/X11/xine?
<Amaranth> GeekToe: oh, i thought you already had ubuntu installed
<_jason> sls: have you searched the forums
<GeekToe> no
<Ace2005> frodrigu; run /usr/bin/xine
<GeekToe> ok
<GeekToe> see ya
<frodrigu> Ace2005 that is the same as running xine
<fdr> psusi, i see, thank you... and is it possible to install 32-bit packages on a 64-bit version of ubuntu?
<Ace2005> frodrigu; run teh other xine
<frodrigu> Ace2005 I get the same error :(
<Ace2005> the /usr/bin has all the dirs where links are put
<Ace2005> so that they work when you do stuff like Alt+F2 and opera
<freedomcomp2> guys how do I refresh the gnome menu some of the programs that I installed are missing form my sources
<Ace2005> or firefox
<frodrigu> Ace2005 "xine-engine error no plugin avaliabe to handle 'dvd://'
<_jason> freedomcomp2: killall gnome-panel
<Ace2005> frodrigu; are the win32codecs installed?
<_jason> freedomcomp2: what do you mean installed from your sources?
<Ace2005> frodrigu; here is a guide that will guide you through getting them http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=75278
<_jason> frodrigu: I have two instances of xine as well, so that's probably not the cause of your problem. What error are you getting?
<frodrigu> _jason "xine-engine error no plugin avaliabe to handle 'dvd://'
<_jason> frodrigu: have you installed the stuff to handle dvd's? does xine work with a movie file?
<frodrigu> _jason when i do xine-check, it says i might not have xine-lib because it can't find xine-config
<Ace2005> frodrigu; xine config is in your home dir
<freedomcomp2> _jason, you understood me right since have NAI, non artificial intelligence
<frodrigu> _jason and Ace2005 yes i have the w32 codecs...i followed the instructions from ubuntu-guide5.1
<jetscreamer> frodrigu: don't worry about that one
<jetscreamer> the no config
<freedomcomp2> is dapper going to sort out the chroot issue with amd64 machines?
<_jason> ubotu: tell frodrigu about dvd
<sls> _jason: what forums?
<_jason> ubotu: tell sls about forums
<frodrigu> _jason i have libdvdcss2 and the w32 codecs
<sls> _jason: is there a quake 3 iqc channel?
<frodrigu> _jason i did this: http://easylinux.info/wiki/Ubuntu#How_to_install_Multimedia_Player_.28xine-ui.29
<_jason> sls: I'd be willing to bet there is
<psusi> fdr, to install 32 bit packages you need a 32bit chroot
<psusi> freedomcomp2, no... that isn't going to make it into dapper.... hopefully dapper+1
<freedomcomp2> psui damn,
<Ace2005> frodrigu; so you have all the codecs, and xine working, apart from playing dvds, it can play avi and wmv files?
<_jason> frodrigu: you are better off sticking to the official docs like help.ubuntu.com
<fdr> psusi: hmm... not as easy as adding the 32 bit repositories to apt sources then :)
<psusi> fdr, correct
<frodrigu> Ace2005 checking now...
<fdr> psusi, what is chroot for? 32 bit packages don't like seeing 64 bit libraries?
<psusi> fdr, basically, yea
<Mar_k_us> yo
<Mar_k_us> how goes it ?
<Mar_k_us> anybody around?
<malefestra> how do I add something to my $PATH?
<coleco> Hi, I want to upgrade from my current breezy setup to dapper but I dont want to burn the dapper cd to do it. Is their any way to do the entire thing over the internet?
<psusi> fdr, work is being done to resolve that so you can just choose to install the 32 bit package and it will all work, but it won't be done in time for dapper... possibly dapper+1
<_jason> malefestra: export PATH=$PATH:something
<malefestra> thank you _jason
<Mar_k_us> is there a way to have ubuntu load a soundfont automatically everytime i boot up?
<Amaranth> coleco: edit /etc/apt/sources.list and change every 'breezy' to 'dapper'
<fdr> psusi, I see, thank you for the info... that will be very nice I think :-)
<Amaranth> coleco: then run sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
<psusi> fdr, by the time it's done, I have a feeling it won't be needed because everything will have been ported to 64 bit ;)
<frodrigu> _jason or Ace2005 this is silly..but do you have any idea where i can find a test .wmv or .avi??
<coleco> Okay thanks :)
<Amaranth> frodrigu: name your favorite band
<fdr> psusi, so until dapper+1 I will need a chroot to have skype working on 64 bit? or is there any simpler workaround ?
<Amaranth> frodrigu: go to their website and get a music video
<Amaranth> fdr: you could use ubuntu 32-bit
<frodrigu> haha, thanks amaranth
<Amaranth> fdr: and get java and flash too :P
<fdr> Amaranth: of course, but since I just bought a brand new amd64, I was thinking about using the extended architecture :-)
<psusi> fdr, I've never used skype... isn't it open source? doesn't it have a 64 bit build?
<Ace2005> http://instaar.colorado.edu/~vachon/Video/Convection1.wmv
<fdr> psusi, nope, it's proprietary sw
<Amaranth> fdr: it's not really useful unless you have apps that need more than 2GB of RAM (and you have more than 2GB of RAM)
<psusi> fdr, ohh... then don't use it... support open source ;)
<phiber_optic> how can I remote desktop to my computer?
<Amaranth> psusi: everyone use skype and there is no free alternative (that can talk to skype clients)
<psusi> Amaranth, compute bound tasks like compression run quite a bit faster in 64 bit mode too
<fdr> psusi, I will surely drop it, as soon as gaim will support it :-)
<psusi> Amaranth, everyone doesn't... because I don't ;)
<Amaranth> psusi: sure, but for a desktop system 64-bit is generally worthless
