PirateHead	moh: in System -> Administration -> Shared Folders	00:00
riaal	TTY=pts is from a local terminal and TTY=tty Is fron an ssh/telnet session?	00:00
PirateHead	moh: see if it tells you you need to install file sharing support	00:00
riddareralf	PirateHead, Why should I use public ftp? Then it only tries to connect anonymously, so I couldn't enter my usr and pwd	00:00
rondonson	JJtech, ah it loaded up , for some reason it just doesnt show me the process of it loading everything , thanks	00:00
DanThirst	Any one know more about video driver, and monitor setups >_>	00:00
JJtech	rondonson: ^_^ kk.. np :)	00:00
PirateHead	riddareralf: If you don't want to connect publicly, use the FTP (with login) option.	00:01
riddareralf	PirateHead, I CAN'T connect publicly. But with this virtual drive I can't open a file on the fly and edit	00:01
riddareralf	PirateHead, But I suppose that's normal since it's still FTP	00:01
zstars	So people, what do you do if you erase your PATH? How can you restore it to default or whatever?	00:02
=== michael is now known as smth
PirateHead	riddareralf: Some programs, ones that have built-in support for Gnome VFS, will be able to edit "on the fly" as you say, without having to download, edit, and upload.	00:02
soldats	DanThirst, do you have the graphics drivers enabled as well	00:02
smth	dfd	00:02
DanThirst	i think how would i find out ?	00:02
PirateHead	riddareralf: Other programs don't have that support, but you might be able to find it in a plugin or patch if it's important to your workflow.	00:03
riddareralf	PirateHead, Ah okay, thanks	00:03
soldats	DanThirst, view this page and see if it helps http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Dapper#How_to_install_Graphics_Driver_.28NVIDIA.29	00:03

smth	hi it's me	00:03
PirateHead	Is there a way in Ubuntu to upgrade to the latest version of Wine without breaking anything?	00:04
=== DM\|_ is now known as DM\|
soldats	PirateHead, what would you break	00:05
PirateHead	soldats: My current Wine installation, the one that came with stock Gutsy.	00:06
seekay	non-LTS ubuntu releases get security updates for 18 months, right?	00:06
soldats	PirateHead, i really dont think upgrading it will hurt your system in any way	00:06

CaptainMorgan	!google	00:08
ubotu	Google is a very popular search engine: http://www.google.com - Google also has a Linux-specific search engine: http://google.com/linux	00:08
Grav3Mind	anyone know how i can install the icon packages?	00:08
jayde_drag0n	Grav3Mind: hi there again... just untar the files into your .icons folder	00:09
ShaunB	Anyone here know how to fix apt-get / synaptec ?	00:09
CaptainMorgan	Grav3Mind, maybe google does?	00:09
Grav3Mind	hey jayde ^_^	00:09
CaptainMorgan	jayde_drag0n, depends on which application he is installing icons for	00:09
soldats	ShaunB, what is wrong with it	00:09
ShaunB	Spits out this error whenever I attempt an update or install a package.Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (2)	00:09
jayde_drag0n	Grav3Mind: home/yourname/ hidden files .icons thoe true	00:09
soldats	ShaunB, are the download mirrors correct	00:10
ShaunB	They appear to be	00:10
ShaunB	I've run apt-get update	00:10
Grav3Mind	should there be a index.theme and development and scalable folders?	00:10
ShaunB	And run apt-get autoremove	00:10
jayde_drag0n	CaptainMorgan: true... tho i just drag and drop when i'm just changing an icons picture	00:10
fungz0r	so what interesting things can i do with ubuntu	00:11
fungz0r	i just installed	00:11
ShaunB	that shows some packages that can be removed yet it wont uninstall/install anything	00:11
soldats	ShaunB, when doing apt-get you need to specify the package name as well	00:11
jayde_drag0n	Grav3Mind: unless captain knows of another way .. if you want to change the picture of an icon .. like on my desktop.. i just went into properties.. and dragged the picture of what i wanted onto the picture of whats showsn in properties and it changes... i haven't figured out how to make it system wide yet tho	00:11
Micheru	hi all, i just set up ssh and i can ssh to localhost fine, but when i ssh from wan i get connected to my router, how would i get to my computer (router is 10.1.1.1 computer is 10.1.1.4 if it helps)	00:11
soldats	ShaunB, like apt-get install pidgin or apt-get autoremove pidgin	00:12
ShaunB	If I use synaptec, it gives me the same error in the console window	00:12
Evanlec	um why did i just get 10 dcc requests to send me Fedora 8 iso ?	00:12
gordonjcp	Evanlec: spammer, I should think	00:12
virtuososteve	fedora 8 isn't very good	00:12
astro76	Micheru, you need to forward port 22 to 10.1.1.4	00:12
gordonjcp	Evanlec: some little kiddy undoubtedly found it very funny	00:12
soldats	Evanlec, yes it is a spammer you may be redirected if it happens a lot	00:12
ShaunB	Funny thing is it references Hotplug yet says its not installed when I try to remove	00:12
Micheru	ah, thought it would be something like that thanks	00:12
Laney	/window level -JOINS -PARTS -QUITS -NICKS	00:12
PirateHead	fungz0r: There are lots of cool things you can do.	00:12
Laney	Err, oops.	00:12
jayde_drag0n	CaptainMorgan: do you know how to change the icon picture for where it shows up on the ... um whats the ubuntu equivalent of taskbar? t	00:13
ShaunB	Here is the c/v of the error	00:13
Grav3Mind	ah see i wanna make it system	00:13
ShaunB	dpkg: parse error, in file `/var/lib/dpkg/available' near line 1685 package `module-init-tools': `Replaces' field, reference to `hotplug': version contains `)'E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (2)	00:13
Evanlec	soldats, okay, redirected?	00:13
PirateHead	fungz0r: If you're new to Desktop Linux in general, you definitely want to check out the awesome selection of free apps you can download. (Applications -> Add/Remove...)	00:13
fungz0r	oo kk thanks	00:13
soldats	ShaunB, hmm ive never seen that error	00:13
ShaunB	Because of that, it seems I can't install anything.	00:14
Triskaidekaphobi	what causes this error: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/46195/ when trying to compile in a new module?	00:14
CaptainMorgan	jayde_drag0n, icons tend to fall in: /usr/share/icons/	00:14
rondonson	fungz0r, compiz is pretty cool	00:14
soldats	Evanlec, if you keep getting dcc requests youll be redirected to #ubuntu-???	00:14
CaptainMorgan	jayde_drag0n, right-click the menu or application and select "Edit Menu"	00:14
fungz0r	whats compiz?	00:14
ShaunB	fungz0r: 3D desktop + effects	00:14
fungz0r	oo	00:14
fungz0r	how do i get it?	00:14
jayde_drag0n	Grav3Mind: from what i see under appearance customize... in icons... the things i untarred into .themes seem to show up in there as well	00:14
Evanlec	soldats, right but why me? im connected via port 8001 which i thot prevented this issue	00:14
PirateHead	fungz0r: Compiz makes the computer look a lot glitzier. 3D effects and so on.	00:14
jcsteele	i am having some troubles with the forum, it seems whenever I post a long reply, and then click on "submit" firefox just hangs and does nothing...if I log out and log back in, and then try to reply again with the copied text from my previous post....it still hangs. I can post to any other thread with no problems, and this has occured twice now on 2 different threads...any ideas?	00:15
PirateHead	fungz0r: You need a graphics card and driver, first of all.	00:15
gilnim	hi	00:15
jane_	ShaunB, try sudo dpkg --reconfigure -a	00:15
fungz0r	haha yeah i got that :P	00:15
soldats	Evanlec, not sure its just lame kiddies trying to be funny	00:15
PirateHead	fungz0r: assuming you have a graphics card, go to the Restricted Drivers manager and enable a graphics driver.	00:15
Micheru	astro76: i am still getting the router on ssh, i have port forwarded as you said	00:15
CaptainMorgan	jayde_drag0n, once things are changed there, it will typically change what's showing for the taskbar icon	00:15
Evanlec	soldats, yea i know	00:15
soldats	they get random people	00:15
PirateHead	fungz0r: You could possibly use an Open Source one, but they are notoriously bad and under-powered compared to the restricted ones.	00:15
jcsteele	is there any illegal character combinations that I need be aware of or anything?	00:15
gilnim	What's the comment for scanning all devices. I want to know where my hdd are.	00:15
diafic	Someone name a web-based torrent client?	00:16
ShaunB	jane_: error - dpkg: conflicting actions -e (--control) and -r (--remove)	00:16
PirateHead	gilnim: lspci	00:16
astro76	Micheru, also you need to connect to the external public IP, not 10.1.1.1 which is the internal IP, and you probably can't do it from behind your router	00:16
jayde_drag0n	CaptainMorgan: i think i've done that... i went to edit menu... then went to the properties of each individual item and changed the picture... but while it shows up as the correct icon in the menu... it doesnt when its launched where it sits on the upper right of my screen	00:16
fungz0r	when i go to restricted drivers manager, says that my hardware does not need any drivers	00:16
fuma218	hello, have an issue connecting to a windows share	00:16
gilnim	PirateHead: thanks	00:16
PirateHead	gilnim: no problem.	00:16
fuma218	i am able to mount the share with the correct username and password, but i am unable to open anything. I get an Input/output error	00:16
CaptainMorgan	jayde_drag0n, you may need to restart your windowing system	00:16
Micheru	astro76: why not, i am connecting to my external ip (using a dyndns url)	00:16
PirateHead	fungz0r: Assuming that it's telling the truth, the next thing depends on whether you are on Feisty or Gutsy.	00:17
ShaunB	jane_: first console said dpkg: conflicting actions -e (--control) and -r (--remove)	00:17
PirateHead	(or Dapper)	00:17
Micheru	as in why wouldn't i be able to do that?	00:17
ShaunB	oops...sorry it said dpkg: unknown option --reconfigure	00:17
fungz0r	on using gutsy	00:17
jane_	ShaunB sems type --reconfigure 2 --	00:17
EjChris	alguem me chamo?	00:18
jayde_drag0n	CaptainMorgan: well i believe a reboot will accomplish the same thing.. and i've done that since making the changes.. and it didn't change... or is that a specific command that a reboot doesn't fix?	00:18
jane_	ShaunB, typo	00:18
PirateHead	fungz0r: In that case, you can very easily enable Compiz by going to System -> Preferences -> Appearance	00:18
astro76	Micheru, only if your router supports nat relfection will that work	00:18
tacone	hello, question:	00:18
tacone	ctrl+alt+backspace reset the box, not only X	00:18
PirateHead	fungz0r: From that point, go to Visual Effects (the last tab), and enable one of the 3D Effects options.	00:18
Micheru	astro76: apparantly not then i will try from another bot thanks for the help	00:18
CaptainMorgan	jayde_drag0n, hmmm... I've made icon changes many times...	00:18
tacone	can somebody help me resolve that ?	00:19
CaptainMorgan	jayde_drag0n, *successfully.. so I'm not sure what's wrong with yours	00:19
fungz0r	which effects should i do?	00:19
jayde_drag0n	CaptainMorgan: i'll take a new screenshot with the menu showing so you can see what i see.. i might not be explaining right	00:19
mikebeecham	can anyone explain how I get Sonata to work? It's all a little confusing for me?	00:19
PirateHead	fungz0r: I suggest the Extra effects, for the most wow-effect right out of the box.	00:19
ShaunB	jane_: Help doesn't show a reconfigure but a configure so I used that instead, and it gave me this output: dpkg: parse error, in file `/var/lib/dpkg/available' near line 1685 package `module-init-tools': `Replaces' field, reference to `hotplug': version contains `)'	00:19
PirateHead	fungz0r: However, there is an advanced effects configurator that allows you to customize and totally soup up the effects engine.	00:19
fungz0r	oo kk compiz fusion just showed up	00:20

riotkittie	PirateHead: open a terminal and type lspci	00:21
tacone	well	00:21
PirateHead	gilnim: lspci lists everything that HAL sees, so if it isn't listing your hdds, there is a problem somewhere down deeper.	00:21

riotkittie	PirateHead: if it seems totally nonsensical, the best thing to do is disregard, eh :P	00:23
soldats	tacone, if you read that wiki article it should explain how to do it	00:23

fungz0r	what else can i do with compiz?	00:23
tacone	i am reading	00:23

tigran	Hey. I've asked this question a couple times here, so I apologize if I get repetitive. My wireless connection is less than 20mbps. It should be 54mbps. I have an Atheros card and was using the restricted driver for it. Someone here told me to try ndiswrapper and I did. Though, it did no good. If anyone else has any other ideas I would greatly appreciate it.	00:23
ZaNGaMaN	can you tell me why/.?	00:23
riotkittie	tamer_: open a terminal and type free -h	00:24
riotkittie	tamer_: open a terminal and type free	00:24
pipo	riotkittie: thanks, i got a huge list of things how do I know which is my wifi card?	00:24
kelsin	mikebeecham: sonata is a frontend for mpd... I would recommend (unless you KNOW you want mpd) you look into banshee, rhythmbox, or listen as a music player	00:24
UBUNTUISLOVED	Are you using only G on the wifi to get 54mb	00:24
JJtech	tamer_: go to system>>>>administration>>>>system monitor	00:24
PirateHead	tamer_: For RAM info, you can use the System Monitor (System -> Administration -> System Monitor) which will show you your total ram, vram, and ram usage.l	00:24
tamer_	tnx alot my dera	00:24
UBUNTUISLOVED	if you use Wifi B mode it will downgrade to what is most stable	00:24
mikebeecham	kelsin....are there any benefits of mpd / sonata over rhythmbox?	00:24
riotkittie	pipo: try lspci \| grep -i wireless	00:24
tamer_	ok tnx alot	00:25
tigran	UBUNTUISOLVED: Is that for me?	00:25
ZaNGaMaN	PirateHead: can you help me a little bit i am newbie in linux	00:25
UBUNTUISLOVED	Yup	00:25
UBUNTUISLOVED	go into your router and check if Wifi b mode is off	00:25
PirateHead	ZaNGaMaN: I can certainly try. Are you having any particular problem?	00:25
tigran	UBUNTUISOLVED: Let me check. and if I understood correctly, it should be G?	00:25
soldats	tacone, run this in a terminal instead of using the keys sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart	00:25
Evanlec	mikebeecham, lower resource usage, thats about it	00:25
UBUNTUISLOVED	Yes wifi G mode is the faster of the too	00:25
UBUNTUISLOVED	two	00:25
kelsin	mikebeecham: mpd is a daemon that runs in the background behind X, to play music... there are benefits and drawbacks. If you JUST need a iTunes like music player the other three are good. MPD just allows you to restart X without killing the music player (rarely useful unless you work in odd ways) or want to control the music playing from another computer	00:25
Kveldulf	Is there a chance I could get help with a problem installing?	00:26
mikebeecham	Evanlec: thanks	00:26
Evanlec	mikebeecham, i like rhythmbox, and if you're happy with it, you won't be happy with mpd/sonata	00:26
ZaNGaMaN	piratehead i cannot listen or play a movie ,and when i am trying to instal codec it gives me that eroor mesage that i post 2 minutes ago	00:26
UBUNTUISLOVED	also tigran what is your percent on network manager for strength of signal	00:26
mikebeecham	kelsin: Evanlec...I have used rhythmbox and I do like it...I've just trying all of Linux's lovely stuff before settling down, I guess	00:26
PirateHead	ZaNGaMaN: I looked up and saw your error. How did you install Ubuntu?	00:26
tigran	UBUNTUISOLVED: It was G and B in my router, so I put G only now. Lets see if it makes a difference	00:27
pipo	riotkittie: i got this 04:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection (rev 02) so what is the name lol sorry for the dumb question	00:27
UBUNTUISLOVED	yea diid you reboot or save it in the router	00:27
mikebeecham	I used Exaile for a while, but it kept crashing, so Rhythmbox works fine	00:27
tigran	UBUNTUISOLVED:Saved in the router, its at 41% now, but even if its in the 90's its the same thing	00:27
jayde_drag0n	CaptainMorgan: http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y186/jayde_dragon/Screenshot-2.png okay in the picture you see the main menu and you see pidgin and ktorrent... and they have pretty icons... now i have both of those running and in the upper right they have different icons there.... but they did sucessfully change when i open the menu and look thru	00:27
PirateHead	mikebeecham: Rhythmbox just keeps getting better. I wish they would use a slightly slicker UI, though.	00:27
ZaNGaMaN	piratehead i downloaded from th einternet latest veriosn	00:27

UBUNTUISLOVED	where	00:28
* JJtech be right back..		00:28
PirateHead	ZaNGaMaN: How are you trying to install the codecs?	00:28
=== JJtech is now known as Got
Evanlec	mikebeecham, if u find rhythmbox is laacking in some features, u might try banshee as it has more features (tho none i ever needed)	00:28
mikebeecham	PirateHead: the audio codec seems to be a little crisper than itunes imo	00:28
ZaNGaMaN	p	00:28
skelter	i like amarok as a music player	00:28
tigran	UBUNTUISLOVED: The signal strenght?	00:28
soldats	mikebeecham, also amarok is really nice and has many features	00:28
UBUNTUISLOVED	on network manager?	00:28
mikebeecham	Evanlec: never heard of banshee	00:28
riotkittie	pipo: Intel 3945ABG -- i'm not personally familiar with that chipset but afaik, intel is easy to get working	00:28
skelter	amarok looks slick, searches music fast, and works well with my ipod	00:28
tigran	UBUNTUISLOVED: Yes	00:28
mikebeecham	soldats: I tried Amarok...it's too 'bubbly'	00:28
Evanlec	mikebeecham, its a similar one to itunes/rhytmbox	00:28
mikebeecham	I dont like all the glossy buttons	00:28
soldats	mikebeecham, to each his own then	00:29
ZaNGaMaN	piratehead i try to play a song ,and it now working and the program is loking for codecs he found some codec i pres to instal but it not alowing me	00:29
UBUNTUISLOVED	what is your network card	00:29
pipo	oh ok no it works i just need the name for something else i was just really confused but thanks a lot	00:29
PirateHead	Evanlec: banshee is a music player built using Mono and C# by Novell. It's tied to the "Helix" community. It's a pretty nice player in general.	00:29
UBUNTUISLOVED	brand name and model	00:29
semba	Booting the same system with a kernel I still have left over from Feisty works, so it's something different between the two kernel versions that is causing the "Lost interrupt" message. Has anyone else seen this?	00:29

ZaNGaMaN	piratehead i belive that i instaled a version for amd 64 procesoors	00:31

mikebeecham	banshee...looks great...but I've had to import my music from rhythmbox, as I could not specifically choose my shared media drive as a source Evanlec	00:34
PirateHead	ZaNGaMaN: Gnome, which Ubuntu uses, is widely considered more newbie-friendly since it has fewer options and configuration steps to go through.	00:34
scguy318	sotec_prod: I know more about that stuff on Windows :P I prob would check out Afterdawn and 9doom for stuff like that	00:34
PirateHead	ZaNGaMaN: However, if you love to tweak your computer, KDE gives you plenty of opportunities.	00:34

tigran	UBUNTUISOLVED: I think my wifi went out for a sec. Not sure if you said anything.	00:35
PirateHead	ZaNGaMaN: If you're using a 64 bit processor, then using it to run a 32 bit operating system means you're giving up some of your potential.	00:35

Evanlec	mikebeecham, well, i'd stick with rhythmbox then, it does everything i need...	00:36

Micheru	whabo: lots	00:40
TD-Linux	hello	00:40
whabo	slvmchn what games are they???	00:40
slvmchn	whabo: True Combat: Elite, Tremulous, and Savage: Battle for Newerth are among the best in my opinion	00:40
TD-Linux	I'm starting an ubuntu cd on an old computer	00:40
TD-Linux	how do I keep it from taking years to start?	00:40
deniz_	Micheru, ive never actually seen or played them	00:40
whabo	NICE THX .. thank you alllll	00:40
TD-Linux	it's been loading for 15 min	00:40
whabo	ill try them :P	00:40
slvmchn	True: Combat Elite is a mod for Wolfenstein: Enemy territory, but ET is like WW2: quake edition, too fast-paced	00:40
TD-Linux	X server is up	00:40
deniz_	Micheru, r they good like halo or half-life 2?	00:40
slvmchn	but the mod is amazing, it's like counterstrike but 10x better	00:40
Micheru	deniz_: same, my computer doesn't have the power	00:40
TD-Linux	see brown background and cursor	00:40
TD-Linux	it's busy loading off cd	00:40
slvmchn	much more balanced and realistcally paced	00:41
Evanlec	TD-Linux, there probably is no way...liveCD will always take much longer to load up then a hard drive install	00:41
TD-Linux	I know	00:41
Evanlec	TD-Linux, and on an old computer that effect will be magnified	00:41
TD-Linux	on other computers it takes ~10 min	00:41

soldats	K_Dallas, type alsamixer in a terminal and turn all the levels up	00:59
ArthurArchnix	ok	00:59
Jack_Sparrow	southafrikanse: I would suggest you fdisk -l to see your partition layout..	00:59
magnetron	!msgthebot > ZaNGaMaN	00:59

K_Dallas	soldats, master and mc... they are both up, 100%	00:59

magnetron	pipo: which program is it?	01:03
Odd-rationale	Tornado: Why not use compiz-fusion instead?	01:03
Tornado	o	01:03
Jack_Sparrow	pipo: It is always better to get a program through the repos and not try to compile it yourself...	01:03
kelsin	Hanyou: you can try running the dhclient command on the command line (Just "sudo dhclient eth#" where eth# is your network card [ussually eth0]) and see if you get any type of errors	01:03
Hanyou	Jack_Sparrow: Right now I'm trying to do static IP if that helps at all	01:03

kelsin	pipo what app	01:05
user1	hi	01:05
ToddEDM	Jack_Sparrow: i have the printer installed	01:05
user1	are ubuntu defaults set up by idiots?	01:06
pipo	does it matter what app?	01:06
thor	ToddEDM: do you have samba installed?	01:06
PriceChild	user1, ask your real questino and think carefully.	01:06
user1	there is some horrible noise when I use terminal... wtf	01:06
kelsin	pipo yes	01:06
magnetron	pipo: yes	01:06
PriceChild	user1, that isn't normal.	01:06
Micheru	ToddEDM: try echo "test123" \| lpr and see if anything happens	01:06
ToddEDM	yes thor	01:06
user1	PriceChild: when I press backspace for example	01:06
Jack_Sparrow	southafrikanse: windows was installed first? any other windows partitions?	01:06
PriceChild	user1, that's the pc speaker	01:06
pipo	lol ok, its called kismet something to see info about my network	01:06
ToddEDM	echo "test123" \| lpr	01:06
LjL	PriceChild, i think he means the bell.	01:06
ToddEDM	just type that in Terminal?	01:06
Micheru	ToddEDM: yes	01:06
user1	PriceChild: how to stop that	01:07
Micheru	yeah	01:07
ToddEDM	cool i will try	01:07
kelsin	user1: if you're using the gnome terminal just right click / edit current profile and uncheck terminal bell	01:07
kelsin	pipo that program needs root	01:07
magnetron	pipo: type "sudo kismet" in a terminal	01:07
ArthurArchnix	Do you know, is there a pdf viewer that let's you make notes on it, like foxit reader?	01:07
kelsin	pipo: run it as "sudo kismet"	01:07
ToddEDM	absolutly nothing happened, it just went to the next line	01:07
user1	thanks	01:07
n215	how do i setup default gw for nas0 interface that wasnt created yet?	01:07
tuxthepenguin533	#kubuntu	01:07
Micheru	ToddEDM: how did you install the printer?	01:07
ZaNGaMaN	The required software to play this file is not installed. You need to install suitable codecs to play media files. Do you want to search for a codec that supports the selected file?	01:07
ZaNGaMaN	The search will also include software which is not officially supported.	01:07
kelsin	pipo: non-root users aren't allowed to get that type of info from the network card, so in this situation that program shouldn't be able to be run as a normal user	01:08
user1	why is that stupid noise on by default?	01:08
PriceChild	user1, because it informs the user of something	01:08
LjL	thank you chanserv, sorry chanserv	01:08
virtuososteve	hey	01:08
PriceChild	user1, its a feature.	01:08
pipo	any ideas?	01:08
ToddEDM	Micheru: well i wouldnt say "i" installed it , but it came up in the list of printers to use , in a drop box	01:08
virtuososteve	i was wondering if somebody could help me on getting halo to work on linux	01:08

Impiety	i've done literally everything i could find to do to try to get mp3s to play with amarok, but for some reason it won't work	01:08
magnetron	pipo: yes, run it with "sudo kismet" in a terminal	01:08
PriceChild	user1, then turn it off. EOD.	01:08
Impiety	would anyone know why?	01:09
virtuososteve	im reading a website on it but i dont understand on how to do it	01:09
soldats	be patient and if anyone knows how to solve your problem they will try to help	01:09
Micheru	ok then it should just work :/ it did for me. did you choose the correct driver? (stupid question i suppose)	01:09
LjL	!info xournal \| ArthurArchnix	01:09

Hanyou	kelsin: When I run that command from terminal I get good results and it binds to 192.168.0.42, but still no internet access or ability to ping local IP's.	01:09
thor	ToddEDM: did you run CUPS and configure the printer? Cups is reached via a browser...localhost:631	01:09
user1	dvd player shows video, but silence	01:09
kelsin	Hanyou: run ifconfig and make sure the ip / netmask and other settings look ok	01:09
pipo	oh ok so thats what sudo is about thanks	01:10
ToddEDM	thor, when i selected the printer, it said it was using CUPS	01:10
thor	ToddEDM: you should be able to find the same printer in cups on both computers...your desktop and laptop ...it should show as a network printer on the laptop and a local printer on the desktop	01:10
soldats	user1, you need the codecs use synaptic and search for all codecs and install them	01:10

user1	how to have alsa using the creative	01:10
PsyDeViL	hmm. can anyone suggest me what ubuntu version i should stick with. i have tried gutsy , feisty , on my desktop and they install by using safe graphics mode. However when i try to use edgy eft i can not boot into install. The system crashes and i hear a beep and screen goes black. (if any1 could shed some light on boot options to use with f6). The reason i am doing this is because my ati AGP card is not supported in fesity and gutsy.	01:10

Hanyou	kelsin: Stupid question "What is bcast in Linux's ifconfig?"	01:11

ubotu	hate is a thing we don't encourage - why waste your energy	01:11

LjL	user1, do you want support, or are you trying to troll? i'm starting to think the latter.	01:12
PsyDeViL	:P ur lucky to get it installed	01:12
ToddEDM	thor just add it from add/remove programs?	01:12
LjL	!dvd > user1 (user1, see the private message from Ubotu)	01:12
southafrikanse	Jack_Sparrow: I had Mandriva installed as well. But I then installed Ubuntu over it. Maybe that's why Windows is sda6	01:12
DanThirst	is there a way to turn ssh on from recovery console, or a way to get network working from recovery mode?	01:12
scguy318	user1: if you run VLC from the terminal, can you pastebin the error messages at the terminal prompt?	01:12
scguy318	user1: or perhaps an excerpt of the messages that VLC produces	01:12
thor	cups...yeah..I guess so. To be honest I don't recall if I added it or if it was there by default	01:12
user1	libdvdread: Encrypted DVD support unavailable.	01:13
* user1 slaps riaa		01:13
LjL	then read the bot factoid	01:13
jaydedrag0n_girl	PsyDeViL: those are just different versions of ubuntu... gutsy is the lastest install of the product.. edgy is a couple years old if i am correct	01:13
thor	ToddEDM: open your browser on the desktop and for the url type 'localhost:631'	01:13
thor	see if it works	01:13
danbhfive	PsyDeViL: why isnt your card supported in gutsy?	01:13
Hanyou	user1: VLC does not have some codecs for protected DVD's sometimes. Try a different DVD player.	01:13
DanThirst	or even boot from grub loader with out the GUI to boot up because something is screwed up i just need networking and a console	01:13
scguy318	user1: you need to enable the Medibuntu repo	01:13
user1	LjL: still, it is not very pro to just crash instead any msg box is it	01:13
virtuososteve	no vlc works you just have to get the right codecs	01:13
Jack_Sparrow	southafrikanse: http://pastebin.com/m4649723a is where I would start or try super grub repair cd	01:13
scguy318	user1: and install libdvdcss2, that cannot be distributed legally in some jurisdictions	01:13

ToddEDM	ok cool thor	01:14
scguy318	virtuososteve: libdvdcss2 :)	01:14
thor	ToddEDM: once you have the desktop configured...do the same in the laptop, but configure a network printer	01:14
virtuososteve	yeah thats what i got and it worked	01:14
LjL	user1, that's VLC, it's not developed by the ubuntu developers, it's in universe (community supported packages), and it's done for free, so feel free to ask question, but there's no need to be sarcastic	01:14
Jack_Sparrow	!dvd	01:14

magnetron	LjL: EUCD is a directive and not a law	01:15

magnetron	virtuososteve: did you check appdb?	01:16

jpastore	I'm trying to burn a bootable cd. k3b seems to lack the ability to do this. and I don't see an option in gnome baker. can someone make a recommendation?	01:16
kelsin	Hanyou: your laptop is also on the 192.168.0 network and can ping the 192.168.1?	01:16
ToddEDM	thor: i want to delete all Jobs, it is asking for a password.. i dont think i made a pass for it	01:16
kelsin	Hanyou: check the output of route -n on your laptop and desktop and compare	01:16
Jack_Sparrow	southafrikanse: You might try !diskmounter and mount your windows partitions and make sure windows files are still there.	01:16
ToddEDM	thor: nm	01:17
virtuososteve	look i have wine updated and everything i just need to know how to put this certian file in the wine folder	01:17
LjL	user1, this is not a politics channel, i'm simply telling you even if you don't live in the US, there may still be laws against using some DVD decryption... you should check from more reliable sources if you're concerned about it.	01:17
Hanyou	kelsin: Yes, just double checked.	01:17
ToddEDM	i spoke too soon	01:17
scguy318	virtuososteve: use Nautilus or whatever you do when you want to copy files	01:17
jrib	virtuososteve: if you want to know what appdb is, visit winehq	01:17
thor	ToddEDM: log into the desktop. You view the jobs in a terminal with 'lpq' and cancel them with the 'cancel' command	01:17
virtuososteve	can you give me the link again please?	01:17

danbhfive	virtuososteve, what is the problem that you are having?	01:17
ToddEDM	thor: im not sure what sshd is	01:18
Jack_Sparrow	jpastore: if so.. right click the iso and select write to disk	01:18
scguy318	ToddEDM: sshd = SSH server	01:18
clay3482	my problem is I changed the mount point on a external USB HD - I thought I could make it open up to specific directory - anyway now when I try and mount it the system displays moint_point cannot contain the following characters: newline, G_DIR_SEPARATOR (usually /) so apparently i didnt set it right. how do i reset it back to default?	01:18
kelsin	Hanyou: and this is probably a stupid question, but the netmask and broadcast are the same on desktop and laptop?	01:18
jpastore	Jack_Sparrow, yes. I can't find the option and I found an article stating that it lacked the unfunctionality	01:18
ToddEDM	how do i check?	01:18
LjL	K_Dallas__: does « sudo cat </dev/urandom >/dev/dsp » give you sound? (warning, might be loud)	01:18
Hanyou	kelsin: My laptop was having similar problems earlier today, but it resolved itself mysteriously.	01:18
thor	ToddEDM: it is the ssh server...you should install it on the desktop, then you can log into the desktop from the laptop without having to go in the other room	01:18
Hanyou	kelsin: I will check.	01:18
ZaNGaMaN	for a newbie wich is better mandriva or kubuntu?	01:18

danbhfive	so, whats the problem? why dont you just do it?	01:19
kelsin	ZaNGaMaN: either	01:19
thor	ToddEDM: after you install and learn ssh and sshd...look at the -X option for ssh...you can run linux apps on the desktop in a window on the laptop	01:19

clay3482	ZaNgaMan - UBUNTU 7.10 no doubt	01:19
magnetron	LjL: the implementation differs greatly between countries. as an example, the Swedish implementation allows you to circumvent copy protection if it's necessary for legal access to your media. (watching your dvds with libdvdcss2 etc)	01:19

virtuososteve	becoming root	01:19
Jack_Sparrow	!root	01:19
ubotu	Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo	01:19
astro76	clay3482, you changed it through the properties? when you edit it there, it should not be the full path, but just the directory under /media to use	01:19

LjL	virtuososteve, why would you need root, since the folder is in your own user's home?	01:20

ArthurArchnix	LjL: Under wine, of course... I mean I can just take notes. I'm not about to drop a few hundo's for the privelege of making a few notes. I'll keep my eyes out though for something...	01:20

Jack_Sparrow	virtuososteve: Questions about getting your windows programs to run under wine are better asked in #winehq	01:21
Xacarith	Has any one here ever tried to run something called OpenRPG?	01:21
LjL	ArthurArchnix, uh, no, not under WINE. there is a Linux version of Acrobat Reader, and there used to be an official Ubuntu package too. now there's no official package anymore, but i think it's still in some repository	01:21
ToddEDM	whats the command to install sshd	01:21
kelsin	virtuososteve: honestly wine is going to take work to make work right. If you don't fully understand copying files around your home directory yet you might want to wait a bit and learn some about linux before trying to get wine working	01:21

K_Dallas	amicrawler, uuname	01:24
LjL	virtuososteve, so are you. i think you're not listening to what people actually suggest to you, and rather assuming you know better. perhaps you don't, if you don't even know what nautilus is. open Nautilus in your home directory, hit Ctrl+H, and see if a ".wine" folder appears.	01:24

stodge	compiz works a treat though with minimal work, which was nice	01:42
stodge	jack_sparrow: I thought that was supposed to be a thing of the past?	01:42
thor	ToddEDM: you can even open several ssh sessions to the desktop...although that would be redundant and repetitive	01:43
kakoonia	im not meaning downgrade, i tried to fix something with my laptop screen, so i did some bad adjustments.. now.. i got some bad things going on reboot and resolution got bad.. so i was wondering if theres a way to go back to a previouse state of this installation that worked fine...??	01:43
Galatea2	i've got a problem with networking.	01:43
ztomic	stodge: I have to edit my xorg.conf to get proper refresh rate.	01:43
Jack_Sparrow	stodge: If it dosent setup your hardware you still need to do it manually	01:43
ToddEDM	sorry for sounding so newbish, but what am i supposed to do on the desktop?	01:43
stodge	:(	01:43
thor	ToddEDM: nothing...you do it all from the laptop...that is the point	01:43
ToddEDM	yeah thats what i meant	01:44
Galatea2	ubuntu is NOT giving itself an ip address, even though i specifically told it to do so	01:44
danbhfive	stodge: the nvidia driver scrambles the refresh rate information, so if you are using the driver, the wrong refreshes will get reported	01:44
ToddEDM	i just wanan print a doc	01:44
stodge	ah ok	01:44
danbhfive	stodge: i have the same problem	01:44
thor	ToddEDM: for instance, if you type 'mkdir /home/ToddEDM/temp' it will make the directory on the desktop...not on the laptop...even though you are typing on the laptop	01:44
scguy318	kakoonia: oh, probably your xorg.conf	01:44
PeteOnline	ping	01:44
stodge	I have the horiz and vert values set in xorg.conf	01:44
Galatea2	pinging doesn't work since it doesnt have an IP	01:44
scguy318	kakoonia: you could try doing sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg to possibly regenerate the default config	01:44
Galatea2	everything is just lost	01:44
ToddEDM	i want print/my/damn/document	01:44
Galatea2	no route to host, etc	01:44
ToddEDM	lol	01:44
Hanyou	danbhfive: Well, regardless I got it to work on one machine today even if it was just luck.	01:45
kakoonia	scguy318	01:45
kakoonia		01:45
cyzie	ToddEDM, setup your printer already	01:45
cyzie	?	01:45
kakoonia	bahh	01:45
thor	ToddEDM: by the end of this evening...you can put your desktop in the closet and let it run there <smile>	01:45
ToddEDM	lo	01:45
ToddEDM	l	01:45
ztomic	danbhfive: I don't think it has anything to do with vid card.... I could be wrong but I don't think so.	01:45
tuxthepenguin533	does ubuntu have a registrey	01:45
scguy318	tuxthepenguin533: not really	01:45
ToddEDM	cyzie: yes	01:45
Galatea2	tuxthepenguin533: no	01:45
cyzie	tuxthepenguin533, no	01:45
danbhfive	hanyou: yeah, I dont think i can help much more	01:45
Marcusklaas	God I love virtualbox	01:45
cyzie	ToddEDM, so setup it then, it's easy	01:45
scguy318	tuxthepenguin533: GConf is about the closest thing to one, and its hardly a registry	01:45
tuxthepenguin533	then where do configs go	01:45
ToddEDM	it is	01:45
thor	ToddEDM: when you are ready...log out of the desktop	01:45
Galatea2	anyone here good with networks?	01:45
Pici	scguy318: No. gnome uses a registry-like system called gconf, but its very organized	01:45
Pici	tuxthepenguin533: files	01:45
scguy318	kakoonia: wut	01:45
thor	ToddEDM: and log back in with 'ssh -X ipaddress'	01:46
musashi	i want to extract an osx .dmg to get at a graphics file. can i do this in ubuntu?	01:46
kakoonia	scguy318 is xserver-xorg a part of the command?	01:46
ztomic	Galatea2: just ask.	01:46
scguy318	Pici: I meant in the Window sense :)	01:46
danbhfive	hanyou: it is interesting, your pings are getting stopped at a certain spot	01:46
scguy318	kakoonia: yes	01:46

lukaszz	hi	01:46
kakoonia	k	01:46
scguy318	kakoonia: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg	01:46

musashi	Galatea2, it does for me	01:46
thor	cyzie...nothing...we got the printer working and now I am showing him how to control the desktop without having to be in front of it	01:47
cyzie	Galatea2, why nto ?	01:47
ToddEDM	cyzie: i want to print a doc. with my desktop... im on my laptop	01:47
Assid	is it me, or does compiz manage to work better with ubuntu/gnome?	01:47
PeteOnline	why can't windows just work?	01:47
tuxthepenguin533	where do the files get stored	01:47
Galatea2	because one moment ago	01:47
ToddEDM	no no thor, it hasnt printed yet	01:47
ztomic	...	01:47
corruptionoflulz	tuxthepenguin533: everything is in your home dir	01:47
cyzie	thor, many ways then, ssh and vnc, rdesktop is a few ways	01:47
Galatea2	i was transferring files from this laptop to the computer running ubuntu	01:47
Galatea2	through a physical network link	01:47
tuxthepenguin533	ok	01:47
Galatea2	the next second, i return, and it refuses to connect	01:47
cyzie	ToddEDM, easy, 1st ssh to your desktop, do the lp command	01:47
thor	ToddEDM: should...you said you found the printer in cups on the laptop...so it should be in the printer menu when you print from a program	01:47
PeteOnline	anybody know static routing?	01:47
Hanyou	danbhfive: Just wish there was someone in here that knew exactly what my problem was.	01:47
Assid	PeteOnline: what about it?	01:48
PeteOnline	or a good channel to ask that same question in?	01:48
danbhfive	ztomic: i filed a bug report because I couldn't select a valid refresh rate, even though it was in my xorg.cong, and the guy told me it was a bug in the nvidia driver, it sounded like that guy was having the same problem, but for sure, i still cant select a refresh rate :)	01:48
Galatea2	and now using ifconfig -a	01:48
Assid	PeteOnline: whats your question on it	01:48
Galatea2	my network does not contain an inet entry	01:48
Hanyou	PeteOnline: This channel is as good as any go.	01:48
PeteOnline	Assid: I've been trying to wrap my head around it basically. To actually understand it	01:48
cyzie	Galatea2, dhcp ?	01:48
thor	ToddEDM: the ssh stuff is so you can install and config programs without having to sit in front of the computer...sorry...got ahead of the game	01:48
Galatea2	yes	01:48
ztomic	danbhfive: hmm... interesting.	01:48
Galatea2	"roaming mode"	01:48
PeteOnline	I get ip addressing and subnetting and all	01:48
Galatea2	and this computer is configured with a static IP	01:48
cyzie	Galatea2, do a networking restart	01:48
Assid	PeteOnline: very very simple.. think of the destiantion ip address as a destination on a map	01:49
ToddEDM	thor: thats ok... that was good info	01:49
Galatea2	how do i do that?	01:49
Assid	the route itself as different routes to that location	01:49
cyzie	Galatea2, /etc/init.d/networking restart in root	01:49
AutoMatriX	just updated GPSD ... gpsdrive don't work no more	01:49
thor	ToddEDM: if you open the document on your laptop, when you go to print it, you should find the network printer on the drop down menu	01:49
ToddEDM	ok i see the printer when im printing from openoffice	01:49
Assid	if you hve a multi homed network, then you basically choose which netwrok you want to use to reach that destination	01:49
ToddEDM	yes i see it thor	01:49
lukaszz	hi	01:49
thor	ToddEDM: ok...does it print?	01:49
Galatea2	okay let's see now	01:49
lukaszz	i need help	01:49
ToddEDM	no, it sits in queue	01:49
Galatea2	nope, still not there	01:50
PeteOnline	I understand the idea behind static routing, but the way you enter static routes on most consumer grade routers confuses me	01:50
lukaszz	how to get more bright in ubuntu ?	01:50
Hanyou	PeteOnline: Go to https://help.ubuntu.com/7.10/internet/C/networking-enable.html#networking-enable-nm	01:50
Assid	if you wanna go to florida from newyork, then you choose a route for the whole state of florida.. and not just cape canaveral	01:50
thor	ToddEDM: is it in the queue on the laptop or the desktop?	01:50
Laney	Does anyone know why my display still suspends after 10 minutes even though I've turned it off in Screensaver and Power Management? It's quite annoying when watching videos (shouldn't video players disable this anyway?)	01:50
ToddEDM	haha it woulda been funny if i said YA IT PRINTS	01:50
thor	ToddEDM: use the 'lpq' command on both machines	01:50
billy	anybody have some extensive knowledge about windows?	01:50
Galatea2	in fact, now i can't even select the radio button in the network menu near the clock thing	01:50
Ongaku	rhythmbox keeps on crashing when i manually select a song...anyone know wtf is up with it?	01:50
Hanyou	PeteOnline: That is the Ubuntu Documentation on manual config and such.	01:50
Assid	PeteOnline: just read up on subnet masks.. that should easily clear it for you	01:50
ToddEDM	lpq: error - no default destination available.	01:50
AutoMatriX	anybody who uses gpsd ?	01:50
cyzie	Galatea2, i have never get any porblem on that	01:50

Galatea2	how so?	01:51
Assid	okay so, does compiz somehow work better on gnome for some stupid reason? or is that just me	01:51
PeteOnline	I have read up on subnet masks, how it bitwise masks the ip address to discern the network portion and the host portion, etc	01:51
jaydedrag0n_girl	billy: is it not in your grub menu?	01:51
Galatea2	you see, if i was to connect to it wirelessly though the house's router, it connects to my shared folder almost instantly	01:51
cyzie	Galatea2, what do YOU mean how ?	01:52
billy	well its in the menu	01:52
billy	when when i boot it	01:52

cyzie	Galatea2, dont enable wireless and ethernet at the same time	01:53

ubotu	Channel logs can be found at http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/ - Logs for LoCo channels are at http://logs.ubuntu-eu.org/freenode/	02:04
cyzie	thor, ok, i hope he know	02:04
PeteOnline	I have /etc/network/interfaces set up with a virtual interface for the second ip address	02:04
Grav3Mind	can anyone recommend a good screen video capture program for ubuntu?	02:04
Marcusklaas	hey scguy318: can i do the glassy window look tho?	02:04
ztomic	PeteOnline: that's where you're gonna have to set up static routing and I don't know how.	02:04
cyzie	Marcusklaas, yes	02:04
thor	cyzie...they aren;t real important right now...would just mess up the format	02:04
Marcusklaas	ah cool	02:04
Marcusklaas	where can i configure that?	02:04
thor	cyzie...I wanted him to know they are there	02:04
PeteOnline	in interfaces?	02:04
Galatea2	right.	02:05
cyzie	thor, hehe. yes, show the kiddie	02:05
ToddEDM	yes also it says published thor	02:05
robdig	Grav3Mind: applications->accessories->take screen shot	02:05
thor	ToddEDM: good...then it should be working. When you click on Print Test Page does it give an error?	02:05
Grav3Mind	VIDEO	02:05
Grav3Mind	not screen shot	02:05
PeteOnline	ztomic: i have that figured out, my question is more on the router's side, which I realise isn't really this channel's purpose	02:05
robdig	Grav3Mind: ah...you did say video, my apologies...don't know there	02:05
ToddEDM	ok i see something i idnt notice before, which i shoulda, its in big bold type ....Unable to connect to CIFS host, will retry in 60 seconds...	02:06
Grav3Mind	lol sorry robdig....	02:06
thor	ToddEDM: really...that means it can't get to the desktop...are you running firewalls?	02:06
cyzie	Galatea2, good to go now ?	02:06
kn4rF	it's possible to run keyboard events from bash terminal?	02:06
ztomic	PeteOnline: yeah, i hear you. I'v never done it. probably set your servers up to receive from IP and the router to static route to an ip. I dunno.	02:06
thor	ToddEDM:...wait...check this....	02:06
ToddEDM	thor, maybe on my router	02:07
thor	ToddEDM: on the printers tab...click on Modify Printer	02:07
Galatea2	nope	02:07
Galatea2	is it possible	02:07
cyzie	Galatea2, ?	02:07
Galatea2	that i just add my own entry	02:07
thor	ToddEDM: no...the router would only be firewalled to the internet	02:07
kn4rF	Galatea2, how?	02:07
cyzie	Galatea2, yes	02:07
ToddEDM	k	02:07
ArthurArchnix	I'm looking at an emacs interface for the first time because i want to learn to use 'r' and I'm told ESS (emacs speaks statistics) is the way to go, but I am really displeased with the display. It looks bad, like what gnucash looked like in Feisty. Any ideas on improving font rendering, at the very least?	02:07
thor	ToddEDM:click on Modify Printer, then Click on Continue...	02:07
PeteOnline	ztomic: yeah, I think we both have the same level of knowledge on this, neither of us know how to do static routing on the router. blind leading the blind and all	02:07
Grav3Mind	anyone know of a good VIDEO screen capture program	02:07
Galatea2	like, i'd just write iface eth0 inet static	02:08
ztomic	hehe	02:08
mark_	whats a good lightweight Mplayer GUI?	02:08
Galatea2	this shouldnt be happening though	02:08
ToddEDM	thor ok	02:08
Galatea2	ubuntu is just meant to work without a hitch	02:08
Marcusklaas	and it does	02:08
cyzie	Galatea2, yes, then u need to insert the ip ssubnet mask and gw	02:08
thor	ToddEDM: Make sure the device is right...I think it should be AppSocket/HP Direct	02:08
Galatea2	yeah	02:08
stodge	Any ideas what I'm missing: undefined reference to `XPending'	02:08
neko	hi	02:08
kn4rF	no1 knows?	02:08
vee_	Hi. does anyone have a minute to answer some Ub. Ser. 7.10 questions?	02:08
ToddEDM	thor: it was windows printer via samba	02:08
ToddEDM	i changed it	02:09
cyzie	Galatea2, yes, ubuntu work out of the box unless u go mess it up and that u dont know what u are doin	02:09
danbhfive	!ask \| vee_	02:09
ubotu	vee_: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)	02:09
thor	ToddEDM: you may have to play with those to see which driver works	02:09
vee_	hehe	02:09
neko	i have a problem. when i move icons on desktops , it makes copy instead of just move it	02:09
vee_	thanx	02:09
ToddEDM	ok np	02:09
vee_	first involves RAID 1	02:09
vee_	I used my BIOS to set up a RAID 1	02:09
vladc	Hi, I can't boot Ubuntu 7.10 a 500Mhz G3 iMac because the machine will power off 3 seconds after yaboot. I tried passing "video=ofonly", but that results in an empty black screen.	02:09
thor	ToddEDM: I am running a Canon iP90 on ubuntu and that is what I needed for my laptop	02:09
Galatea2	well i didn't touch anything at all!	02:09
kelsin	ArthurArchnix: you can install emacs 23 from http://peadrop.com/blog/2007/01/06/pretty-emacs/	02:09
vee_	I was hoping this would make things easier.	02:10
Galatea2	this is frustrating. ubuntu isn't meant to destroy the network after i leave for a few minutes	02:10
thor	ToddEDM: once you have it changed (try the AppSocket) click continue and see if the device url is OK	02:10
vee_	When I went to install 7.10 - it saw two disks instead of 1	02:10
thor	ToddEDM: oops...hold on	02:10
vee_	So I choose the first	02:10
=== _RvGaTe is now known as RvGaTe
Hanyou	How do you go about disabling a piece of hardware in your system?	02:10
ztomic	PeteOnline: you may be able to install extra nic's on the servers and connect them to the router but that defeats the purpose of wide area network.	02:10
scott__	Can anyone help me with my GRUB issue, or point me to a GRUB support channel please?	02:10
cyzie	Galatea2, no it wont, i been running ubuntu like >100 days, no problem on my networking	02:11
ArthurArchnix	kelsin: Beauty. Thanks.	02:11
PeteOnline	I wasn't really expecting anyone here to know static routing, I was more hoping someone knew a good irc channel I could go bug	02:11
IndyGunFreak	scott__: whats your issue?	02:11
thor	ToddEDM: no...it should be Windows/Samba...I was looking at the wrong machine...sorry	02:11
Galatea2	but why am i the unfortunate one?	02:11
ztomic	extra cost too but nics are cheap	02:11
vee_	installation said it was finished and now- I have the reboot and selct proper Boot Device...message	02:11
cyzie	if u are not the one who is change it, then have u look into other possiblity?	02:11
thor	ToddEDM: on the next page you should see the device url	02:11
vee_	what did I do wrong?	02:11
cyzie	like software that change it ?	02:11
PeteOnline	yeah, i might just do that in the end, but static routing through the router and locking down that specific ip address would be best	02:11
ToddEDM	ok	02:11
brian994	DCC SEND "itsabeautifuldaythesunisshiningifeelgoodnobodyisgoingtoletmedown" 0 0 0 0 0	02:11
neko	nobody have an idea ?	02:12
danbhfive	PeteOnline, don't the linksys routers have good config software, which handles all that?	02:12
thor	make sure the device url is something like...'smb://192.168.1.xxx/name' where name is the name of the printer	02:12
scott__	I had PCLOS on my primary HD. I added another HD and installed ubuntu. Ubuntu works but i can't boot into my PCLOS. I get Error 11 unrecognized device string	02:12
ToddEDM	thor smb://MSHOME/PC-HOME/printer	02:12
ToddEDM	hmmmm	02:12
Galatea2	why does eth0 broadcast an ipv6 address, but not an ipv4?	02:12
thor	ToddEDM: nope...your desktop is linux, right?	02:12
PeteOnline	danbhfive: I'm using dd-wrt, custom firmware installed on a linksys	02:12
IndyGunFreak	scott__: when grub loads, i presume its when you boot your ubuntu drive first, right?	02:12
ToddEDM	yeah!!	02:12
danbhfive	i see	02:12
ToddEDM	usd to be windows	02:12
Galatea2	and what's the difference between eth0 and eth0:avah	02:12
kelsin	ArthurArchnix: you can install the emacs-snapshot-gtk official package just to get gtk widgets, but that package from that blog also includes nice XFT font support	02:13
scott__	The working Grub is on the new hard drive	02:13
cyzie	Galatea2, fix yoru problem first.	02:13
thor	ToddEDM: is the desktop named MSHOME?	02:13
plamo	Query: Gparted doesn't let me unmount my /dev/sda1 hard drive because other things are mounted to the same point, how do I get it so I can unmount it?	02:13
ToddEDM	thor: no	02:13
cyzie	Galatea2, u are running away from your own problem	02:13
ToddEDM	its wrong	02:13
Galatea2	well i've tried everything including setting my network to DHCP inside interfaces	02:13
thor	ToddEDM: right...you need to change that...smb://ipaddress/name	02:13
scott__	I boot up and I get a grub menu to choose my OS. Ubuntu and PCLOS are both on the list	02:13
thor	ToddEDM: ipaddress is the ipaddress of the desktop, and name is the name you put into Samba on the desktop	02:13
IndyGunFreak	scott__: ok, can you browse the old drive, and look at the grub menu config? IF so, it will tell you what parameters it was using, and you can just set those perameters inside Ubuntu's grub menu.lst,	02:13
Galatea2	I am literally lost for ideas	02:13
danbhfive	vee_ i have no idea, but, I'm gona send you a webpage	02:14
vee_	ok	02:14
danbhfive	!raid > vee_	02:14
thor	ToddEDM: sorry about this...I am usually better <smile>	02:14
scott__	ok. I'll try that. Thanks.	02:14
ToddEDM	hey thhis is great thor thanks	02:14
ztomic	PeteOnline: try some other channels... these guys are pretty specific in here. If it aint ubuntu, they don't know.	02:14
ToddEDM	ok the mane i put in samba.......	02:14
ToddEDM	name	02:14
Galatea2	okay	02:14
Galatea2	this is strange	02:14
thor	ToddEDM: once you have the url set, click continue	02:14
Galatea2	interfaces is now devoid of the entry i put in, and saved	02:14
thor	ToddEDM:choose the printer and click continue	02:15
vee_	yes- i went to that site already -- doesnt cover 71.0	02:15
ToddEDM	i dont know thqat name i put in samba	02:15
vee_	71.0	02:15
ztomic	or just don't care	02:15
PeteOnline	ztomic: I tried networking, but it was like talking to a room full of statues	02:15
Galatea2	that definitely isn't normal.	02:15
thor	ToddEDM: you should use the same driver you are using on the desktop	02:15
vee_	danbhfive: is RAID a bad idea?	02:15
Hanyou	danbhfive: Do you know how to disable a piece of hardware on gutsy? I have been looking in support docs and haven't found crap.	02:15
scott__	When I open menu.1st it opens read only. Who do I get it to open as a read write?	02:15
pabix	Hello.. in which file should I define my EDITOR variable?	02:15
scguy318	scott___: gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst	02:16
ToddEDM	thor: gimme an example of yours	02:16
pabix	scott__, sudo ?	02:16
neko	how do i set off definitvly the bell ?	02:16
neko	it beep on my computer	02:16
scott__	thanks. I was opening from GUI	02:16
neko	and it is annoying	02:16
pabix	neko, System>Preferences>Sound ?	02:16
thor	ToddEDM: my printer is a canon pixma ip90...I use the driver for the iP2000 since there isn't one for the ip90	02:16
neko	cool	02:16
ToddEDM	oops i was meaning the Dvice U	02:17
ToddEDM	RL	02:17
neko	thanks pabix	02:17
ToddEDM	URI	02:17
Galatea2	it seems as if ubuntu doesn't want me to network the two computers together	02:17
pabix	neko, welcome	02:17
thor	oh...my device url is smb://192.168.0.xx/iP90	02:17
Assid	anyone here got avalaunch working?	02:17
thor	ToddEDM: in samba on the server I called the printer iP90	02:17
danbhfive	vee_ i dunno, it sounds like a pain :)	02:18
ste-foy	\\\|//	02:18
ste-foy	{ö/ö}	02:18
Galatea2	anyone with another idea?	02:18
thor	ToddEDM: just curious...did you install swat with samba?	02:18
danbhfive	hanyou: no i don't, im google'ing, have you tried ifdown?	02:18
ToddEDM	thor: no	02:18
thor	ToddEDM: do yourself a favour...install swat	02:18
neko	galatea2	02:19
vee_	danbhfive: so whast the best way to set up Linux so that it mirrors certain info two a second internal HD	02:19
neko	you want to make samba network with them ?	02:19
ToddEDM	hold on , im trying to figure out my URI	02:19
Galatea2	yes	02:19
Galatea2	i've done that	02:19
Galatea2	and i've transferred files between the two computers on several occasions	02:19
neko	how the two computer get their IP ?	02:19
neko	oh it have work in the past but no more now ?	02:20
Galatea2	this computer has an ip set up of 192.168.2.1	02:20
Galatea2	yes	02:20
Assid	man the live cd should use anti aliasing	02:20
neko	the other one ?	02:20
Galatea2	and the other connects via "roaming mode"	02:20
Assid	anyone know where i can change this setting?	02:20
Assid	the fonts look too crappy	02:20
neko	check with ifconfig it they are in the same network	02:20
Galatea2	which worked extremely well until an hour ago	02:20
Galatea2	eth0 is not assigned an ip	02:21
Galatea2	there's something ghostly called eth0:avah	02:21
neko	okey 1 have an ip the other have none	02:21
Jack_Sparrow	ToddEDM: I used this link... http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=282096	02:21
Galatea2	which has an IP, but exists on a different subnet	02:21
K_Dallas	Sorry to ask this but where could i find a background/wallpaper which is pretty representative of ubuntu's spirit? (something like the picture on the CD jackets). Need this for a presentation, thank you	02:21
Jack_Sparrow	K_Dallas: gnome-look.org	02:22
Galatea2	K_Dallas: try google images	02:22
K_Dallas	thank you both	02:22
thor	ToddEDM: if you can't figure out the printer name....you can find it easy wth swat	02:22
danbhfive	hanyou: for network devices, it looks like you could just use the gui under System > Administration > Network	02:22
K_Dallas	Galatea2, google images is frustrating, most of the time	02:22
ToddEDM	ok	02:22
neko	okey so your main problem is that one of your computer is no more in your network ?	02:22
Galatea2	i decided to insult ubuntu by placing the leopard-beta "grass" desktop	02:22
cvd	its there away to to open with wine a .exe after double-click and not right-click open with wine? this what appear when i do a double-click .exe http://img2.freeimagehosting.net/uploads/5f8c9bb26f.png	02:22
Galatea2	yes, that's the problem neko	02:22
Galatea2	they're not "communicating" with each other	02:23
Assid	anyone?	02:23
sfears	why is fileserver trying to send me Fedora 8 so badly?	02:23
kelsin	K_Dallas: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Official that can help, not backgrounds, but logos and stuff	02:23
neko	first you really need to have your two computer in the same network	02:23
K_Dallas	thanks kelsin	02:23
neko	what the problem with the one that get no IP ?	02:23
danbhfive	vee_: sorry, i have never done raid myself, i personally just backup as i need to, but its really not that secure the way i do it	02:23
Galatea2	the problem is it's running ubuntu	02:24
sfears	problem indeed	02:24
thor	ToddEDM: the other way to find the printer name is to look in the samba config file...but since I discovered swat I have never looked there...so don't even remember where to find it	02:24
danbhfive	vee_: in fact, i don't know much about backing up in ubuntu	02:24
Assid	how do i change the anti aliasing of the screen?	02:24
neko	I know only two way to assign IP	02:24
Galatea2	Assid: go to system>preference>appearance>fonts	02:24
neko	by hand	02:24
ToddEDM	ok i got swat... how do i open it	02:24
Galatea2	yeah, by hand it doesn't work	02:24
neko	or with a dhcp	02:24
Galatea2	and that doesn't work either	02:24
danbhfive	vee_: I did move /home to a certain partition, which is kinda a backup proceedure	02:24
sfears	in appearance prefs Assid? under fonts	02:24
thor	ToddEDM: you installed swat on the desktop, right?	02:24
Jack_Sparrow	cvd: Have you looked at thunar file manager...	02:25
Galatea2	something went bad with /etc/network/interface	02:25
ToddEDM	both	02:25
neko	the net interface is wifi ?	02:25
Galatea2	and I have no idea how to fix it	02:25
neko	on the computer that have the problem	02:25
Galatea2	no, its with a physical hardware link	02:25
thor	ToddEDM: ok..on the laptop open a browser tab and for an address type 'ipaddress:901' the ipaddress of the desktop	02:25
cvd	thunar?	02:25
Assid	thanks	02:25
Galatea2	they're both connected though car5	02:25
Galatea2	cat5*	02:25
Galatea2	through*	02:25
Jack_Sparrow	cvd: Yes, like nautilus, but smaller and lighter	02:25
Galatea2	wifi works great	02:25
vee_	danbhfive: if it means avoiding headaches and trying to get thing to work right, I can have just two HDs and some sort of app that backs up when asked - does this sound like the better way to do it?	02:25
Galatea2	but its slow and the packet loss is substantial because the computer is in the backyard	02:26
sfears	you have a computer in the backyard too?	02:26
thor	ToddEDM: did swat open or do we need to restart xinetd again?	02:26
Jack_Sparrow	vee_: one line in a cli will backup for you	02:26
Galatea2	yeah	02:26
cvd	i like gnome, .exe worked before, but now i dont know what happend i wont open with wine automatically	02:26
ToddEDM	restart	02:26
Galatea2	i use it for timemachine and what not	02:26
vee_	Jack_Sparrow: please enlighten me!	02:26
sfears	just playin...	02:26
thor	ToddEDM: sudo /usr/sbin/xinetd restart	02:26
Jack_Sparrow	vee_: you can install thunar with synaptic, aptitude or apt-get	02:27
danbhfive	vee_: well, as a fellow noob to this stuff, yes :P	02:27
Galatea2	its actually my old computer which i gave to my rents because apparently ubuntu is easy to use	02:27
thor	ToddEDM: on the desktop	02:27
thor	ToddEDM: then refresh the browser page and see if swat loads (I hope)	02:27
danbhfive	vee_: i mean, if it aint working, and you can live without it, why bother, this is just MHO	02:27
Galatea2	but, upon reflection, it's starting to be (un) good	02:27
vee_	danbhfive: completely new to this stuff and want to make it easy yet efficient	02:28
Galatea2	okay, i may as well transfer files though the sneakernet	02:28
ToddEDM	:( nope thor	02:28
Galatea2	this is ridiculous	02:28
Galatea2	thanks, bye.	02:28
neko	?	02:28
danbhfive	vee_: yeah, if you are new, i would say, forget raid for now	02:28
thor	ToddEDM: ok...you will have to take a look at the samba config. Research swat on ubuntu later...it is worth the trouble	02:28
vee_	danbhfive: i hear ya - just need the machine to serve as a LAMP and file server	02:28
thor	ToddEDM: let me see if I can find the samba config	02:29
lashmoove	whats the equivalent command to use in ubuntu to chkdsk.. in windows i would "chkdsk g: /f" to fix a currupt drive.. but, how to do that in ubuntu ?	02:29
Jack_Sparrow	vee_: raid is not worth the effort...	02:29
danbhfive	vee_: i think raid is something thats a bit involved to setup, ie, get linux to recognize it on bootup	02:29
vee_	Jack_Sparrow: whats that line you mentioned or app?	02:29
neko	fsck	02:29
peacho	I need help getting Internet Time working right in Ubuntu 7.10. Can anyone help me?	02:29
neko	lashmoove	02:29
Jack_Sparrow	vee_: thunar file manager... install with synaptic or apt-get or aptitude	02:29
vee_	danbhfive: yea, at the moment I installed the server addition and now it wont boot at all from the HD	02:30
soldats	thunar us a really great file manager	02:30
netsrot	how do I turn off updatedb autorunning?	02:30
thor	ToddEDM: ok.../etc/samba/smb.conf	02:30
robdig	peacho: whats going on?	02:30
thor	ToddEDM: on the desktop...in a terminal type 'less /etc/samba/smb.conf'	02:30
user_	how to check size of /home/user/ ? i want to do backup of it	02:30
\|muelli\|	hm netsrot. good question. I'd look in /etc/cron.d/	02:30
thor	ToddEDM: you familiar with 'less'?	02:30
vee_	Jack_Sparrow thanx so much	02:30
Jack_Sparrow	np	02:30
ToddEDM	haha not at all thor	02:31
\|muelli\|	user_: try a "du -hs" in your directory	02:31
=== \|muelli\| is now known as Muelli
peacho	When I open Time and Date Settings and change Configuration from Manual to "Keep Synchronized with Internet Servers" it tells me I must install NTP support.	02:31
danbhfive	netstrot: System > Preferences > Sessions	02:31
thor	ToddEDM: it just lets you see the file...not edit it. Page down by hitting the spacebar, and back with the 'b' key	02:31
user_	thanks	02:31
ToddEDM	k	02:31
thor	ToddEDM: look for the definition for the shared printer...the name you need is the name on the left side in square brackets [iP90]	02:32
neko	user_ you can also	02:32
peacho	If I click Install, it sits there for a little while and then it doesn't seem to fix anything.	02:32
neko	right click on nautilus	02:32
vee_	danbhfive: what did you pick (when installing) when it came to partioning? I think I am going to reinstall after I tell the BIOS to stop the RAID 1 and switch them both to act like IDE	02:32
ArthurArchnix	kelsin: You know what it was? your second comment there started me looking through synaptic. The thing is I wanted ess, but when I selected that it installed emacs 21 as the dependency. Emacs 22's font rendering is fine, and is also available in the repository. As is the snapshots you mentioned. Now to see if ess is working with 22, and then if I can uninstall 21 without apt also removing ess. Sigh... :)	02:32
user_	neko, yes?	02:32
robdig	peacho: yes, you need NTP to sync. you can get it by typing in a terminal apt-get install ntp	02:32
thor	ToddEDM: there should be a line in that section with the 'printer name='	02:32
neko	for check a size of a folder	02:32
kelsin	ArthurArchnix: yeah it can be slightly odd, but even if you have to remove all then install the snapshot package first, then the ess package you should be ok	02:33
Assid	hrmm.. stupid network isnt going on wifi	02:33
Assid	not in live cd mode atleast	02:33
neko	the right click > properties	02:33
neko	give you this info also	02:33
neko	in nautilus	02:33
ArthurArchnix	kelsin: Indeed. Well, thanks for the tips and such.	02:33

f3d	Allo	02:34
danbhfive	vee_ well, I have 3 partitions i believe, swap, /home, and /	02:34
danbhfive	vee_ i use this as a desktop, and a hobby developement server with apache/php	02:34
ToddEDM	i see [printers] and [print$] thor	02:34
user_	i got problem with printing on ubuntu, the shared printer is on windows xp sp2, so sometime after print a lot of pages, then i can not do print, it's like the ubuntu not send print job to the XP, even i already restart the CUPS service (/etc/init.d/cupsys restart) the printer still no respond. Why that happen?	02:35
thor	ToddEDM: right and you should also see a section where you defined the printer for sharing	02:35
user_	should i upgrade my feisty (7.04) to 7.10 to solve this problem ?	02:35
user_	neko, thanks	02:35
ToddEDM	hold on	02:35
thor	ToddEDM it may be you never added the printer?	02:35
vee_	danbhfive: so new that im not sure what the difference is between the three . I have 2 SATA 500 Gb HDDs	02:36
ToddEDM2	ok thor, im on the desktop	02:36
user_	does anyone here ever got same problem like me ? or you guys, have no problem with it	02:36
peacho	robdig: when I try to install this I get the following error: Package ntp is not available, but is referred to by another package.	02:37
peacho	This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or	02:37
peacho	is only available from another source	02:37
peacho	E: Package ntp has no installation candidate	02:37
vee_	danbhfive: i imagine home/ is for the OS	02:37
thor	ToddEDM right...and looking at the smb.conf file, right?	02:37
LiMaO	user_: what problem are you having?	02:37
danbhfive	vee_ /home is for the user	02:37
vee_	danbhfive: not sure what swap is	02:37
danbhfive	vee_ whats this for?	02:37
robdig	peacho: let me double check the name...	02:37
danbhfive	vee_ how much ram do you have?	02:37
ToddEDM	etc/samba/smb.conf	02:37
peacho	ok	02:37
user_	LiMaO, sometime i can not print document to shared printer on xp :(	02:37
vee_	danbhfive: Remote and LAN file server and a LAMP test box	02:37
thor	ToddEDM right. And you didn't edit this file at all, right?	02:37
danbhfive	ok	02:38
danbhfive	ram?	02:38
user_	i just wonder does cups or smbfs have problem about stability connecting to windows xp shared printer	02:38
vee_	4 gigs	02:38
user_	is there any issue about this?	02:38
ToddEDM2	thor: im logged on as myself on the desktop right now... and i cant even get to lok at smb.conf	02:38
danbhfive	vee_ ok, forget about swap i think	02:39
thor	ToddEDM you probably need to do an 'sudo less /etc/samba/smb.conf'	02:39
vee_	danbhfive: 2 ghz core 2 duo	02:39
danbhfive	vee_ especially if its only you using it	02:39
vee_	danbhfive: swap is like using HD for RAM?	02:39
danbhfive	you will never need swap	02:39
danbhfive	ya	02:39
vee_	kewl	02:39
vee_	im sure i have to assign some space to it, right?	02:39
danbhfive	no	02:40
robdig	peacho: yup, ntp is the package name. you might need to check that your sources are correct...system->administration->software sources and make sure all of the repositories are checked	02:40
thor	ToddEDM did that work?	02:40
user_	is there any software to restore deleted file on ubuntu ?	02:40
ToddEDM2	CUPS printing. See also the cupsaddsmb(8) manpage in the	02:40
ToddEDM2	# cupsys-client package.	02:40
ToddEDM2	; printing = cups	02:40
ToddEDM2	; printcap name = cups	02:40
jakomo	oijojoijoij	02:41
vee_	danbhfive: I am going to erase my RAID and begin reinstalling, whe I get to partioning, I am going to ask what I should do - is that ok?	02:41
thor	ToddEDM I don't think that will work...but try using the name cups in the url on the laptop	02:41
Cabbage	Under Gutsy, mplayer when using xv only shows green when playing videos. X11 is too slow to really use as an alternative. Ideas?	02:41
thor	ToddEDM you remember where that is?	02:42
peacho	@robdig: Okay, so I'm on the Software Sources page and the only thing I see checked on the Ubuntu Software tabbed is Installable from CD/DVD. I take it I want to check all the "Downloadable from the Internet" boxes?	02:42
danbhfive	vee_ I think there is an option to have ubuntu figure out the partitioning for you	02:42
danbhfive	vee_ might as well start there	02:42
reallyjoel	is it possible to change my screen resolution to something custom thats not listed in the app for screen res.	02:42
danbhfive	vee_ you can change it later with gparted, and not loose your information	02:42
ToddEDM	on the cups page on the browser	02:42
ToddEDM	?	02:42
ToddEDM	?	02:42
robdig	peacho: yup	02:42
thor	right	02:42
keen101	is there a way to "steal" the window manager from kde?	02:42
wday	Hello I tried searching forums but couldn't find an answer - I installed vim-latexsuite using apt-get, but when I open a .tex file with gvim it doesn't load latexsuite	02:43
vee_	danbhfive: yes, the first option. going to erase the RAID 1 and resey the HDs to function as IDEs first	02:43
Assid	dont get why linux always uses only 60 hz for its screens for lcd's	02:43
Assid	and not 72/75 if the hardware supports it	02:43
danbhfive	vee_ yeah, in the bios	02:43
danbhfive	user_ you could try e2undel	02:44
mEck0	I thinking of buying a new soundcard. I've read that some people recommend m-audio and other brands instead of Creative's soundcards, because they says they have better sound quality and so on. I want it to give me very nice and clear sound for music listening, in movies and games. kind of an allround-card. is it a creative card I should buy?	02:44
peacho	I guess that explains why I couldn't install programs from Add/Remove Programs either!	02:44
Assid	anyone here using X and have configured it to use 72/75hz for the video instead of 60 for LCD's ?	02:44
loca\|host	!alsa	02:44
ubotu	If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3	02:44
loca\|host	!sound	02:44
robdig	peacho: probably so	02:44
LiMaO	Assid: i may use 75hz if i want	02:44
danbhfive	Assid are you sure your lcd can go that high?	02:44
keen101	can the window manager be used in gnome? (ie. different wallpaper for each desktop)	02:44
Assid	LiMaO: yeah it used to on win	02:44
reallyjoel	The Screen Resolution app in system->preferences (in gnome) doesnt list the correct resolutions for my screen (its widescreen), so can i set it in another way?	02:45
keen101	(from kde)	02:45
danbhfive	Assid are you using nvidia?	02:45
LiMaO	Assid: i mean it works for me under linux	02:45
Assid	dont remember if it was 72/75	02:45
Peppery	Hi, I'm running Apache 2 on Ubuntu Server 7.10 and I'm having problems trying to get it to execute cgi/perl scripts. I had this problem before and fixed it somehow. Does anyone know how I can fix it?	02:45
Assid	danbhfive: nah, ati radeon 9000 mobility	02:45
LiMaO	Assid: have you properly configured your monitor horizontal and vertical frequency ranges in xorg.conf ?	02:45
Assid	its a dell d600 latptop	02:45
danbhfive	reallyjoel are you using an nvidia?	02:45
Assid	LiMaO: just reinstalling (changing from kubuntu to ubuntu)	02:45
reallyjoel	danbhfive, yes, 6800gt	02:46
LiMaO	Assid: also, if you go to System > Preferences > Screen Resolution, can't you change it there?	02:46
Assid	LiMaO: live cd shows me only 60hz	02:46
LiMaO	Assid: mine shows 50hz and 51hz.. if i choose 50, it'll work at 60hz, if i choose 51 it'll work at 75hz	02:46
ThePirateRedBear	I was wondering just yesterday if there would ever be a day that I will be so smart that I can edit xorg.conf and know what I'm doing.	02:46
thor	ToddEDM I once told a friend that I liked linux because it allows one to rediscover the joy of getting a printer to print 'hello'	02:47
ToddEDM2	thor i dont know wtf is wrong with this	02:47
keen101	LiMaO, try using the alternate install CD.	02:47
Assid	hrmm no such thing here	02:47
danbhfive	reallyjoel the nvidia drivers have a bug which scrambles the refresh rate listings, that might be your problem	02:47
LiMaO	keen101: uh? i don't need it. i have a working system =P	02:47
thor	ToddEDM2:whats the matter? won't it take cups?	02:47
danbhfive	anyone know how to make a suggestion for ubotu?	02:47
peacho	robdig: It's installing now... :)	02:47
keen101	oh. well, it gives you more options...	02:47
ToddEDM	its not doin anything	02:48
reallyjoel	danbhfive, well if that bug spills over to screen resolutions, but the refresh rate works fine	02:48
Peppery	anyone?	02:48
robdig	peacho: excellent	02:48
danbhfive	no, i think its just refresh rates	02:48
reallyjoel	danbhfive, SHOULD 'Screen Resolution' app list widescreen res's?	02:48
thor	ToddEDM here's the thing...you have almost everything right...but you don't have th eprinter shared via samba yet...that is where swat comes in. If you aren't too discouraged I can help you get that...we are close <smile>	02:48
Assid	reallyjoel: it should honestluy	02:48
Assid	widescreen is getting to be a norm now	02:49
peacho	robdig; It just finished and now works fine. Thanks for your help.	02:49
robdig	peacho: no prob, have a great evening	02:49
reallyjoel	I mean, not should as in usability, but as in how its made currently	02:49
thor	ToddEDM I am looking at this howto....http://linuxtnt.wordpress.com/2007/08/12/starting-swat-on-ubuntu/	02:49
blackvd	I have a quick question here, when i use nvidia-settings to switch my screen from my laptop to my TV, How do I switch it back without restarting X?	02:49
danbhfive	reallyjoel are you switching monitors by chance?	02:49
ToddEDM	i am very discouraged ... lemme have a look	02:49
thor	ToddEDM2: you need to install one more thing according to that....	02:49
wday	If anyone else has this problem, it's a known bug see bug #137205	02:50
thor	ToddEDM2: do 'sudo apt-get install netkit-inetd' on the desktop	02:50
reallyjoel	danbhfive, well yeah, but i switched gpu at the same time, from ati to nvidia, required an install of nvidia drivers and a reboot	02:50
ubuntu	hello	02:50
danbhfive	reallyjoel anyway, you can use the command sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-org	02:50
reallyjoel	used the proprietary drivers app for that	02:50
danbhfive	reallyjoel yeah, you need to reconfigure every time you switch monitors	02:51
reallyjoel	danbhfive, is it scary?	02:51
danbhfive	i believe	02:51
ubuntu	do you spanish	02:51
thor	ToddEDM2: according to the howto that should enable swat	02:51
danbhfive	reallyjoel not if you know the specs of your monitor, which it sounds like you do	02:51
thor	ToddEDM2: my fault...I thought it was part of xinetd	02:51
ubuntu	help	02:51
thor	ToddEDM2: when we get swat running...it will make samba a snap to configure	02:52
danbhfive	!spanish \| ubuntu	02:52
ubotu	ubuntu: Si busca ayuda en Español por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, allí obtendrá mas ayuda.	02:52
reallyjoel	danbhfive, It says "Package `xserver-org' is not installed..." but that sounds strange..	02:52
billy	!Swahili \| ubuntu	02:52
ubotu	Sorry, I don't know anything about swahili - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi	02:52
lashmoove	Buffer I/O error on device fd0, logical block 0 - when usb drive plugged in	02:53
danbhfive	reallyjoel er, i don't know the package for sure, use tab complete	02:53

reallyjoel	danbhfive, hmm?	02:54
TigranG	Hey. I read somewhere about how Network Manager isnt that good, and there was an alternative. I forgot what the name was. IF anyone knows what I'm talking about, can you please tell me the name	02:54
thor	ToddEDM2: just checking in my ubuntu I don't see netkit-inetd	02:55
ToddEDM2	ok i did sudo apt-get install swat	02:56
djezer	help, I lost my taskbar	02:56
ToddEDM2	got it on both laptop and desktop	02:56

blkthndr	is there any way i can change the status of a hidden directory (windows hidden directory) in ubuntu?	02:57
electron	su -	02:58
thor	ToddEDM2: the line about restarting xinetd is outdated though...it is /usr/sbin/xinetd	02:58
robdig	djezer: do you still have one of them?	02:58
electron	n=eldt	02:58
electron	190.154.56.58	02:58
Taa5i	Hello. I'm attempting to install using a Xircom rbem56g cardbus ethernet adapter and network autoconfiguration will not assign it an IP. I know it is a functional card, I've used it before in other distros. ANy idea why it wouldn't work please?	02:58
thor	ToddEDM2: if you don't know how to use nano as an editor you can use gedit instead	02:58
electron	quit edit	02:58
ToddEDM2	lol	02:58
blkthndr	I have a folder that windows reads as hidden, is there any way i can change this using ubuntu?	02:59
=== recon is now known as reconnect
user_	how to do clean uninstallation after i play enough with wine (apt-get install wine) ? i need to remove the software and all of wine configuration	02:59
thor	ToddEDM2: is that you slipping over the brink?	02:59
Hanyou	Hey, does anyone here know anything about Wine? Their IRC is kinda dead.	02:59
electron	del syetrbfbf	02:59
ToddEDM2	ok i think im gonna scrap this little excesize of the mind... i will just email the shit to the desktop... seems quicker	02:59
electron	software	02:59
ToddEDM2	yes thor	02:59
thor	ToddEDM2: if you get that one file created it should do the trick.	02:59
Acidfried	anyone know a decent dc++ client other than linux dc	03:00
vee_	danbhfive: I am at the point Guided, but which one ; entire disk / entire disk and set up LVM / entire disk and set up encrypted LVM? then theres the first- resize (which is prolly what i dont want) and manual	03:00
thor	ToddEDM2: but if you want to let it go we can do that too.	03:00
=== reconnect is now known as recon0
thor	ToddEDM2: bookmark the howto so you can find it tomorrow	03:00
thor	ToddEDM2: when you access swat you will see what I meant...it makes samba SO easy	03:01
blkthndr	I have a folder that windows reads as hidden, is there any way i can change this using ubuntu?	03:01
danbhfive	vee_ dont you want the first? I don't know, I always have chosen manual :(	03:01
ToddEDM2	thor.. i got the file made, how do i save it ?	03:01
thor	ToddEDM2: are you using nano?	03:01
ToddEDM2	yup	03:02
danbhfive	vee_ if you choose manual, all you need to do is have at least one partition marked as /	03:02
thor	ToddEDM2: just hit control-X and it will prmpt if you want to save. Say yes and it will ask for the filename	03:02
thor	ToddEDM2: no..it already knows the filename <smile>	03:02
craigbass1976	I've just read https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wxwidgets2.8/+bug/68792 about amue crashing all the time when updating. What's the eta on a solution, anyone know?	03:02
vee_	danbhfive choosing manual	03:03
thor	ToddEDM2: then 'sudo /usr/sbin/xinetd restart'	03:03
TigranG	Whats an alternative network manager than network-manager?	03:03
thor	ToddEDM2: then open the browser on the desktop and type 'localhost:901' for the url	03:03
djezer	robdig yeah, but some themes i installed crashed the window manager gnome and kde	03:03
Baumer	So Apparently I don't have the 3D accelerator or something installed correctly on ubuntu... how would I go about installing that for a integrated intel graphics card?	03:03

djezer	i neede to find a way to open my themes settings from a command	03:04
vee_	danbhfive: now i see Guided / Help partioneg below that are two SATA drives - one has a submenu	03:04

vee_	danbhfive # 1 primary and #5 logical	03:04
djezer	anyone know the program name so i can launch the themes manager in ubuntu	03:04
ToddEDM2	yes thor	03:04
thor	ToddEDM2: on the printers tab....	03:05
ToddEDM2	no im logged into some samba page	03:05
thor	ToddEDM2: there is a drop down for Choose Printer	03:05
ToddEDM2	ohh ok	03:05
danbhfive	vee_ mmk, are they partitioned?	03:05
danbhfive	vee_ how much do you know about partitioning?	03:05
vee_	when it comes to linux - 0	03:05
ToddEDM2	you want me back in cups?	03:05
danbhfive	vee_ how about in windows? ie not linux?	03:06
thor	ToddEDM2: no...we need to define the printer in samba first	03:06
ToddEDM2	ok	03:06
vee_	windows an d mac - yes	03:06
user_	i want to backup /home/user is this correct use this command: tar -czf user_backup.tar.gz /home/user	03:06
vee_	danbhfive: win and mac yes	03:06
thor	ToddEDM2: in swat you should see eight icons at the top...if not then you didn't log in as an administrator	03:06
danbhfive	vee_ how would you partition in those cases	03:06
danbhfive	user_ probably not, i dont think that works	03:06
thor	ToddEDM2: there should be Home-globals-shares-printers-etc	03:07
ToddEDM2	ok i didnt , i see 4	03:07
user_	danbhfive, what is the correct one?	03:07
thor	ToddEDM2: then close the page, open it again, and log in as an adminstrator	03:07
blkthndr	I have a folder that windows reads as hidden, is there any way i can change this using ubuntu?	03:07
danbhfive	vee_ i mean, im not sure if I know what you need, you could just format them both to ext3, set one to mount as / and the other to something like /media/other	03:08
vee_	danbhfive most of the available space would go to data, if I have two or more drives I drop my data from one HD to another	03:08
ToddEDM2	o i closed it, tried the other login/pass no go	03:08
ToddEDM2	whats the administrators login/pass????	03:08
danbhfive	user_ why are you backing up /home?	03:08
ztomic	blkthndr: why are you trying to do that?	03:08
Assid	man	03:08
Amendt	any ubuntu laptops in Canada?	03:08
Assid	this final release of ubuntu is messed up	03:08
thor	ToddEDM2: in ubuntu the admin is the first user you define...who was first when you installed on the desktop?	03:09
user_	danbhfive, i want to backup /home/user , not /home	03:09
Assid	i dont get anything while the machine starts	03:09
blkthndr	its for my mp3 player	03:09
Assid	no loader or anything	03:09
vee_	danbhfive: system then two partitions (equal in size but way bigger than system) for data	03:09
user_	danbhfive, i want to re-install my ubuntu	03:09
user_	danbhfive, upgrade it to 7.10	03:09
ztomic	blkthndr: this is a foldaer that should not be hidden?	03:09
user_	danbhfive, because right now i use 7.04	03:09
PsyDeViL	hmm. can anyone suggest me what ubuntu version i should stick with. i have tried gutsy , feisty , on my desktop and they install by using safe graphics mode. However when i try to use edgy eft i can not boot into install. The system crashes and i hear a beep and screen goes black. (if any1 could shed some light on boot options to use with f6). The reason i am doing this is because my ati AGP card is not supported in fesity and gutsy.	03:09
blkthndr	yes it should not be hidden	03:09
ToddEDM2	thor, i did that... gave me only 4 icons	03:09
Assid	err.. did someone screw up on the release?	03:09
ztomic	blkthndr: is it hidden in windows?	03:09
Assid	the loader is just dead	03:10
blkthndr	yes its hidden in windows, i dont have windows to change the status though	03:10
danbhfive	vee_ well, if you mount one drive as /, basically everything will go there	03:10
thor	ToddEDM2: then open a terminal....type 'passwd root' and give a password for root...I always do that when I first install for just these reasons	03:10
vee_	danbhfive: I will be placing my Mac and Windows files on the data partitions as well	03:10
Taa5i	Hello. I'm attempting to install using a Xircom rbem56g cardbus ethernet adapter and network autoconfiguration will not assign it an IP. I know it is a functional card, I've used it before in other distros. ANy idea why it wouldn't work please? I really can't install without getting this working. :/	03:10
thor	ToddEDM2: then log in with the user id 'root' and the password you just defined	03:10
pike_	PsyDeViL: well.. if youre going to go with an older version have you considered dapper? its the long term support version	03:10
danbhfive	vee_ are you dual booting? or try booting?	03:10
thor	ToddEDM2: I have about five hours of notes about things to tell you....we need to continue this at another time <smile> (or via email)	03:11
thor	ToddEDM2: let me know when you are logged into swat as root	03:11
pike_	PsyDeViL: id suggest you maybe just ebay the ati card though and buy a dirt cheap nvidia :)	03:11
ToddEDM2	k	03:12
blkthndr	the problem is that because it is a windows hidden file, my mp3 player cannot read it.	03:12
danbhfive	user_ do you want to be able to restore the files?	03:12
vee_	danbhfive: I would like one drive with a good size partition for system and apps, plus a much bigger portion for M and W data backup, while the other drive I want to store just M and W data	03:12
thor	ToddEDM2: you have eight icons now?	03:12
ToddEDM2	yup	03:12
thor	ToddEDM2: the printers icon....	03:13
ToddEDM2	k	03:13
vee_	danbhfive: i dont want to ever have a chance of messing up the system (ha)	03:13
thor	ToddEDM2: check the drop down list for Choose Printer and see if one is defined	03:13
danbhfive	vee_ but are you dual booting? i didnt think you were, are you talking about when you actually setup the ftp?	03:13
thor	ToddEDM2: is there anything besides 'printers'?	03:13
cry0k1n3t1c	Anybody know how to configure an ad hoc connection in gutsy?	03:13
ztomic	blkthndr: that dont make sense. Does your mp3 player work with Linux/Ubuntu?	03:14
slvmchn	i'm having a lot of trouble with this, i had hda/sda1 = windows, hda/sda2 = storage, and hda/sda5 = linux partition... i installed XP over the vista partition, but now grub doesn't load at all	03:14
vee_	danbhfive: at this point no, in the future i will purchase a separate drive for that	03:14
slvmchn	before i was using grub to dual boot	03:14
ToddEDM2	no just printers, and mine is listed	03:14
blkthndr	yes it works fine	03:14
danbhfive	user_ sudo rsync -aS /home/<user>/. /<backup location>/.	03:14
slvmchn	if i change the boot partition i can't get linux to load at all, and i can't get grub to set up right using a live cd	03:14
cry0k1n3t1c	slvmchn: When you install XP, it overwrites the MBR	03:14
vee_	danbhfive: i really want this machine to be a server (another ha)	03:14
slvmchn	cry0k1n3t1c: i am aware of this	03:14
slvmchn	cry0k1n3t1c: how do i reset it	03:14
thor	ToddEDM2: what do yo mean yours is listed? Is there a printer there in the list? If so ....highlight it and click Choose Printer	03:14
danbhfive	vee_ then dont bother with partitioning much, you want to use ALL the space for linux	03:15
cry0k1n3t1c	slvchn: Did you try to reinstall GRUB from the live CD?	03:15
=== matthew_ is now known as person
ToddEDM2	ok i did that thor	03:15
blkthndr	i use rockbox firmware on my mp3 player, when i boot the mp3 players original firmware it makes the music folder hidden, rockbox cannot find the hidden music folder	03:15
ztomic	blkthndr: and copying the folder is unacceptable?	03:15
slvmchn	cry0k1n3t1c: yes but it gave me problems	03:15
thor	OK...the important ones....	03:15
blkthndr	I could copy the folder but its a huge folder	03:15
thor	ToddEDM2: path = /var/spool/samba	03:15
danbhfive	vee_ linux will be holding the files for other OS's, in fact, at this point, it doesnt matter	03:15
