<orp> and a free acount
<adriyel> orp, linphone
<orp> ok
<_jason> root____2: kubuntu-desktop is in the main repo
<slavik-vmware> _jason: amarok is regular app
<adriyel> _jason, typo?
<Mabus06> root____2: are you on irc as root?
<zen> anybody know how to fix a contrast issue? video looks washed out :(
<adriyel> raids, meh. methinks somebody mangled the .deb
<root____2> i doono
<adriyel> raids, talk to a MOTU, they might be able to fix it
<Mephis> _jason, it says dpkg: error processing w32codecs_20050412-0.0_i386.deb (--install):
<root____2> haha
<raids> adriyel, MOTU?
<_jason> Mephis: did you make sure it downloaded completely??
<adriyel> raids, Masters of the Universe, they handle the repository and packaging in various categories
<root____2> uid=0(root) gid=0(root) groups=0(root),1(bin),2(daemon),3(sys),4(adm),6(disk),10(wheel),11(floppy)
<raids> Is there a IRC channel?
<chp43> trying to run quake2 but having problems.. first there was no sound, which I finally got working by intalling libsdl1.2debian-alsa and configuring quake2 to use alsa.. the problem now is the sound quality is terrible.. it crackles and pops while other apps using alsa perform fine ;(
<Mephis> cannot access archive: No such file or directory
<root____2> yes im root
<wuzzy> how do i install mplayer? ican find it in synaptic?
<JoeBlow> chp43. r u using wine?
<orp> you need more mirrors
<_jason> Mephis: download it to your desktop and then do dpkg -i ~/Desktop/w32codecs_20050412-0.0_i386.deb
<adriyel> root____2, BAD. VERY VERY BAD. *smacks you on the wrist* never run as root fool!
<ale3hs> when about ubuntu release a new version?
<raids> adriyel, ? are they on irc?
<adriyel> use a sudo enabled acct, NEVER root
<_jason> ale3hs: april
<chp43> JoeBlow: no, these are the native quake2 binaries. i also tried using libsdl1.2debian-arts and setting quake2 to use arts, but the quality is even worse (choppier).
<ale3hs> ok o
<JoeBlow> chp43, i dunno, i just run it wine, runs fine on todays modern hardware
<adriyel> raids, to be honest, it's been forever and a half since I had to speak with a dev or a MOTU, and that regarded a bug that I debugged and hacked in Ubuntu 64
<root____2> i need to :E.. anyway. it is the source.list? the repos are in=
<root____2> ?
<adriyel> had to do with that dirty flash module
<adriyel> root____2 should be in /etc
<root____2> im in etc
<raids> adriyel, ok. thanks for you help anyways. This is the first distro that ran on my new hardware. i expected bugs
<adriyel> raids, don't give up
<root____2> /etc/apt
<orp> wuzzy go to http://www.formatds.org/ubuntu/
<root____2> right+?
<varsendagger> is there a program that records the video of a window?
<adriyel> raids, its certainly not your hardware, some dummy mangled the .deb, first time I've encountered this btw
<raids> adriyel, I wont :)
<varsendagger> --- that has a decent GUI?
<adriyel> root____2, somewhere 'round there
<chp43> JoeBlow: oh well. i will do what it takes to work. but imho native binaries are far prefered :\
<adriyel> raids, lemme think, hold on
<swizzle> new to ubuntu, got it yesterday, and dont know jack about it and have a question
<varsendagger> honestly i don
<varsendagger> 't need a gui
<adriyel> raids, are you willing to compile that app from source?
<Mephis> _jason, the wiki page u gave me , that page gives me a link which i cant download
<raids> adriyel, I really wouldn't be surprised if it's myh hardware. It's a nforce4 drivers. it's all not linux happy
<adriyel> varsendagger, hooah.
<varsendagger> that is it? hooah?
<raids> adriyel, sure. no harm in trying
<adriyel> raids, I've been using NF4 for awhile with no problems
<Mephis> http://www.giannaros.org/public/breezydebs/w32codecs_20050412-0.0_i386.deb
<adriyel> varsendagger, you said you didn't need GUI. Neither do I even though I like it....sooo...hooah.
<root____2> why are some restricted and some universale?
<raids> adriyel, I actually just got home to try and install the Nforce drivers because my network card was bunk, and i logged on and bamn internet
<swizzle> how do i change te ownership of files so i can delete them in the trash
<adriyel> root____2 read a wiki about the "ubuntu way" and how the repo's are handled
<adriyel> raids, nice. all my hardware is autodetected in nearly every distro I try
<root____2> i dont have X so its hard to read a wiki right now
<JoeBlow> chp43, oh yea of course
<adriyel> raids, only OS's that don't behave with my hardware are windows and BSD
<varsendagger> adriyel, yeah sometimes it is just easier with out a gui,, it is almost counter intitve but it is true
<swizzle> how do i change te ownership of files so i can delete them in the trash
<JoeBlow> chp43, but the reason i run it wine is because i couldnt get the native install to work
<raids> adriyel, lol. type in my mobo in google with any distro name (A8N-VM).. asus really made a mess of it
<adriyel> varsendagger, yeah, in some cases. I just keep 2-3 terms open under my GUI, because I still need the GUI for stuff
<adriyel> raids, using an A8N-SLI here
<orp> can i config voipbuster acount on linphone?
<adriyel> raids, GeForce6800GT as well
<raids> GeForce 6600GT here
<adriyel> raids, when I first got it, older distro's didn't want to play nice...since then, I've been fine
<ITSa341> Good afternoon everyone
<adriyel> raids, my friend runs that card, I used to have one, they're pretty nice
<raids> adriyel, yeah the cards fine. it's the mobo. no sound, and the internet is bunk
<swizzle> how do i change te ownership of files so i can delete them in the trash
<raids> adriyel, they released it with tonnes of errors in the bios. i went through 8 distro before this
<adriyel> raids, yeah, sounds familiar when the distro's used to misbehave with mine
<raids> adriyel, it's really the only one that even made it this far :S
<raids> adriyel, Is there an alternative to apt-get?
<chp43> swizzle: check out the chown command. man chown. if the files are owned by root though it might be easier to just to use sudo to get the neccesary permissions
<adriyel> raids, have you flashed the bios to a more recent version? my BIOS is about 6 versions newer than when I got it
<adriyel> raids, meh? Ubuntu is pretty tightly integrated with apt-get...if you're thinking of an individual app instead of a whole different package manager, it can be done yes
<raids> yeah it's flashed too the newest one
<adriyel> raids, if you're talking about switching package managers, thats crazy impossible
<raids> adriyel, lol ok
<gaz-> im trying to compile a simple c program and when i do gcc test.c -o test its saying "error: stdio.h: No such file or directory
<gaz-> "
<adriyel> raids, you could compile the app from source ./configure && make && make install
<raids> adriyel, I'm somewhat decent at linux. without a package manager i'm dead in the water
<adriyel> raids, or you might find a pre-made Ubuntu .deb for it
<raids> adriyel, oh yeah i'm decent at that. it's just updating and whatnot
<adriyel> raids, heh. like varsendagger, a GUI is optional for me
<adriyel> raids, I usually run Ubuntu and Gentoo side by side
<raids> adriyel, lol i spent 3 hours making Gentoo for the first time the other night
<adriyel> raids, the more you use Linux, the more comfortable you'll get with a wider range of issues, environments, e.t.c.
<adriyel> raids, I've spent far longer than that :P
<gaz-> on a normal ubuntu installation are the c/c++ header files automatically installed?
<raids> adriyel, can i private message you?
<adriyel> raids, KDE takes FOR FREAKING ever to compile
<raids> adriyel, yeah i've heard that lol.
<adriyel> raids, certainly, but I'm not logged/registered, so I cannot respond
