Comments:

<0> not entirely accurate, for 2d you have decent drivers
<0> who needs 3d anyways, only gamers and I don't give a damn about those..
<1> 3d graphics engineers need it too.. those that sit around in Maya and whatnot..
<2> hmm. My lat C810/840's have Nvidia
<0> my D800 as well
<3> the root cause is that companies are afraid that if I know that POKE 41952,33 makes a green dot at (124, 863), then I'll be able to build a video card off of all their hard work
<3> in reality, I suspect the real problem is that theres not as much hardware acceleration as nivida and ati claim there is, and a lot of stuff actually gets done in the driver.
<3> and if the source was out, people would see that
<4> I have a question about Samba. I have a shared folder, and when i add a user in the smb.conf files, the user is not allowed to work, any clue?
<5> fact is, if I *really* wanted, I could reverse engineer it
<5> it's not wwothwhile though
<5> I'm happy to pay for a video card. I just want one that ****ing *works*



<6> whyzzyrd: About the whole proprietary thing, i'm following these instructions (they're for ubuntu but I'm getting them to work for debian) and it's telling how to compile the actual module. I tried redoing it with gcc4.0 and they work now... http://www.ailis.de/~k/docs/atilinux/
<7> How well do Nvidia graphics cards work with Kubuntu?
<5> very
<7> thx
<0> the sound certification system?
<6> brb, restarting X.
<1> thx?
<1> ugh, this is not #linuxhelp
<8> Bjprn-: DOES NOT COMPUTE
<9> is there a command wget --spider ?
<8> Danger Will Robinson!
<8> driller-: man wget
<9> kosmo I am not loged now, is there a web man ?
<8> driller-: www.google.com
<8> REVVIE!
<7> What do you think my chances of getting a 56k Mach 2 PCI modem made for Win95/98 working in Kubuntu are?
<5> redfrog: slim
<8> redfrog: snowballs chance in hell.
<7> best data brand
<7> it is not a winmodem per se
<5> www.linmodem.org
<10> possible.
<8> redfrog: worst grape jelly
<10> why does everyone ***ume pci = winmodem?
<7> beats me
<5> NineVolt: because 99% of the time, it does
<10> not old ones.
<10> back in the day they didn't invent winmodems yet :P
<5> when modems were nearly all ISA
<5> and 56k was rare
<5> 99% of 56k PCI modems are winmodems
<10> i had a 56k usr/3com pci pnp voicefax modem and it wasn't a winmodem.
<5> at least
<2> hardware PCI modems are like hens teeth
<10> i even got slackware 3.4 to dial out with it.
<8> redfrog: get off of your wallet and buy a USR V.Everything and quit worrying.
<5> "made for win95/98" doesn't sound too promising either
<7> Will Kubuntu recognize a Conexant HSF V92 56K RTAD Speakerphone PCI Modem? Help says some Conexant modems can be run with the sl-modem-drivers (smart link) but not which ones
<7> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DialupModemHowto?action=show&redirect=SettingUpModems#head-27c1595198125d81eb19201b131a3a91876e1ad4
<11> can someone put some emech on hacktheworld? pls
<8> redfrog: you found it! READ THE WIKI
<2> redfrog: didn't you ask this yesterday?
<5> all conexants are winmodems IIRC
<7> whyzzyrd, didn't figure it out yesterday
<7> The best data Mach II 56FW-PCI is a winmodem
<7> Uses the conexant HCF 56K chipset
<7> PC-tel 1789 chipset for that
<5> yeah, not really a modem
<5> well, not by my definiton
<12> its basicly a screaming imitation of a soundcard :)
<7> i really dont want to have to blow another $20 on a modem :(
<8> Lion-O: hahahahahaha
<8> wow, so much money.
<5> redfrog: there's your problem. $20 will buy you a winmodem.
<8> $20 will not buy a real modem.
<5> redfrog: pretty much ANY modem you pay $20 for is a winmodem
<7> nah
<7> they have come down in price



<8> redfrog: so you suddenly know it all, eh?
<5> redfrog: not THAT much
<5> $20 is NOT going to buy you a modem worth having
<3> no they dont. Cheap crap like winmodems go down in price
<5> well, yeah
<2> redfrog: And I also note you mix up HSF and HCF in this
<5> winmodems is software:)
<2> redfrog: they're quite different
<7> sorry
<13> Crap. This monitor came with a VGA cable instead of a DVI.
<3> hardware modems will stay expensive because they know that hardware modems are bought by people who really want them, and therefore will pay more
<14> I wonder if there is some way to enable popup notification in taskbar on new mails in thunerbird. I like those in dapper.
<12> Falchion: time to consult PolarWolf ;)
<2> I've not used a modem in linux for years
<13> Lion-O: Hmm?
<13> whyzzyrd: What's a "modem" ? ;) heh
<12> Falchion: just kidding ;) last time that happened to me PW could sell me one of his spares.
<13> heh nice
<5> Falchion: a thing with rubber ears that you put a telephone handset into
<7> Most winmodems are not supported by Kubuntu by default, but drivers can be found that will enable the use of such modems
<12> so IMO PW is the 'dvi guy' :)
<13> PolarWolf: gimme cables! Lion-O said you would! *ducks*
<5> redfrog: all winmodems, without exception, are a *world* of pain. On *any* platform!
<2> smsie: we still have 2 sets of acoustic couplers
<5> whyzzyrd: museum? :)
<3> hm, looks like you can get a no-name brand modem for $23, should be no problem (long url) http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.asp?DEPA=0&type=&Description=serial+external+modem&Submit=ENE&Ntk=all&N=0&minPrice=&maxPrice=&Go.x=0&Go.y=0\
<2> smsie: well, we don't use em, but aren't binning em anyway.
<4> 56K INT USR PCI MODEM V92 HARDWARE OEM 56,65$ 55,00$
<2> RelDrgn: ahh, I've seen at least 1 software-helpered external modem
<4> :]
<10> 56 thousand dollars!
<4> canadian! so maybe 45 us
<4> heh
<3> whyzzyrd: serial? :o
<2> RelDrgn: Some rockwell poc
<10> although you have an inappropriate number of digits following the grouping seperator...
<3> oh, well, rockwell rpi modems have been crap since the days of the c64 ;P
<2> RelDrgn: don't ask me.
<5> whyzzyrd: quite a lot of usb externals are winmodems
<5> I've never seen a serial external that was (serial just isn't quick enough to transfer the data to it)
<2> smsie: that was my thoughts on the thing too, but this thing wouldn't work properly until it's software gubbins was installed, DUN updated, etc etc.
<15> sal
<15> e cineva din romania aci!>?
<2> UtahEduUK: English
<3> haha, looks like rockwell *became* conexant, that explains a lot ;)
<15> is someone from .Ro here?
<5> whyzzyrd: maybe had some firmware to upload or somesuch?
<3> UtahEduUK: #linuxro
<15> i have one question :i install in my machin linux Fedora core 2 but i can`t conect to internet i set my ethernet network and i have automatic ip but can`t conect from linux whay?
<12> UtahEduUK: depends on your setup.
<8> UtahEduUK: #linuxro
<5> whyzzyrd: it can't have been doing the DSP in software (I wouldn't have thought)...there's too much data to p*** across serial
<15> kosmo is nobody On there
<3> "automatic ip" how? dhcp or pppoe or what? Is your ethernet card even being detected?
<15> dhcp
<15> yes se see my card
<15> show active
<16> UtahEduUK: did you configure your dns correctly ?
<3> smsie: rockwell rpi wasn't really a winmodem type thing, they just decided that they had a better way to run the modem than hayes did ;)
<15> but when i try to conect to one website nothing
<5> RelDrgn: well, yeah. They lost :)
<15> Sunblade is automatic all
<15> Sunblade on windos i have : Ip automatic Dns automatic
<16> yes but if there's a wrong dns server
<3> UtahEduUK: did you configure it to be automatic on linux or did you think linux reads your windows settings?
<16> UtahEduUK: another possiblity is a b0rk nic or switch, set speed to 10mb half duplex
<15> RelDrgn but this is setting from my internet provider
<2> smsie: perhaps some firmware stuff
<15> so when i give on protocol to see ip here on windows i see automatic IP and DNS automatic
<3> UtahEduUK: which you told linux to use?
<12> UtahEduUK: how did you check if your linux setup actually got an IP adress ***igned?
<15> no Lion-O nothing
<12> UtahEduUK: www.tldp.org
<3> UtahEduUK: so you told linux "automatic IP and DNS"? Where did you tell linux that?
