| pg | Hi - when I resume from a suspend, my eth0 connection does not come up automatically. Even invoking dhclient does not work until I remove my network driver module and insert it again. Can I fix this somewhat? | 00:01 |
| bulmer | Centaur5-> just run iptables -F; iptables -vL in your gateway and this should show your default policies | 00:02 |
| Slart | Centaur5, bulmer: flushing iptables doesn't reset default policies.. that took me several days to find out.. just a hint | 00:02 |
| SpeakerMania | tomchuk, how do I enable that? | 00:02 |
| Slart | bulmer: ah.. guess you knew about that one.. nevermind then =) | 00:02 |
| thompa | tomchuk: i was having problems with sound and wireless connection even though wireless showed there so i used the latest ubuntu dev kernel | 00:02 |
| bulmer | Slart-> it doesnt but i dont know what his default policy settings are | 00:02 |
| Centaur5 | bulmer: Do you want me to pastebin those? | 00:02 |
| Pelo | jacob, I realy don'T know, sorry, I am not leet enough to deal with your problem, I just your basic home user, check in the forum www.ubuntuforums.org or ask the channel in general periodicaly, you do seem to be getting somewehre in your research tho, donT' give up , I 'M sure you can manage to find some decent answers eventualy | 00:02 |

| Pelo | Strangework, what is the original app for .sit files ? what are they ? | 00:05 |
| SpeakerMania | tomchuk, the multiverse repsoitory is already in my /etc/apt/sources.list. | 00:05 |
| clever | Strangework: run 'file' on it to see what type they may be | 00:06 |
| Jordan_U | Anyone know of any reason why apt would not see a package as being available when smart does and there is absolutely nothing wrong with my sources.list ( I promise :)? | 00:06 |
| Strangework | Pelo: Stuffit | 00:06 |
| Centaur5 | bulmer: That's odd, I added it on line 40? | 00:06 |
| Slart | Jordan_U: smart? what is that? | 00:06 |
| Pelo | Strangework, I don'T even know what that is ? what is the content of it? | 00:06 |
| Jordan_U | Strangework, I hate that program... | 00:06 |
| tomchuk | SpeakerMania: then apt-get install liblame0 | 00:06 |
| jubilee | How do I locate a file in 7.10? I'm looking for xorg.conf | 00:06 |
| IndyGunFreak | !info stuffit | 00:07 |
| ubotu | Package stuffit does not exist in gutsy | 00:07 |
| Pelo | jubilee, it is in /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 00:07 |
| Strangework | Jordan_U: I hate it when a group insists on making their own format when an adequate universal one already exists.. :\ | 00:07 |
| jubilee | Pelo, thx | 00:07 |
| SpeakerMania | tomchuk, weird. it didn't work before but is now. ... | 00:07 |
| Jordan_U | Slart, A package manager that works on top of many different package systems, it is sort of a replacement for apt but I don't recommend it :) | 00:07 |
| TheZealot | Heya folks | 00:07 |
| Fawkesfyre | !info asn-offsets | 00:07 |
| ubotu | Package asn-offsets does not exist in gutsy | 00:07 |
| Strangework | Pelo: supposed to be a type of archive | 00:07 |
| Fawkesfyre | !info asm-offsets | 00:07 |
| ubotu | Package asm-offsets does not exist in gutsy | 00:07 |
| Pelo | Strangework, did you try with fileroller ? | 00:07 |
| Slart | Jordan_U: oh.. I think I'll stick with apt then =)-- what package was it? | 00:08 |
| Pelo | majicp|laptop, now you see him , now yo don't | 00:09 |
| Jordan_U | Slart, Many packages, some of which are kind of important, like apt itself :), something is seriously screwed up with apt, but I can't for the life of me figure out what :) | 00:09 |
| Slart | !info apt | 00:09 |
| ubotu | apt: Advanced front-end for dpkg. In component main, is important. Version 0.7.6ubuntu14 (gutsy), package size 1457 kB, installed size 4444 kB | 00:09 |
| === [GuS] is now known as |GuS| |
| Slart | Jordan_U: apt isn't found if you do a apt-cache search apt? | 00:09 |
| Pelo | apt is a frontend ? I thought it was the core thingy | 00:10 |
| jubilee | I just tried installing a package, for my touchpad, and when I find it in Sys>Pref and click on it, it tells me I need to set "SHMconfig" "true" in xorg.conf | 00:10 |
| Centaur5 | bulmer: Okay, I made a new paste at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/47895/ | 00:10 |
| narothepharoh | how do i get pics from my camera computer is not reading it at all | 00:10 |
| kelsin | Pelo: just like yum is a frontend for rpm | 00:10 |
| jubilee | But I can't find "SHMconfig | 00:10 |
| jubilee | " | 00:10 |
| Jordan_U | Slart, It is, but there is no installation candidate when I run "apt-cache policy apt" | 00:10 |
| Soskel | hello | 00:10 |
| Slart | Pelo: the apt you install is a front end for apt-the package manager =) | 00:10 |
| Pelo | jubilee, in the terminal gksu gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf , note X one one , not X L L | 00:10 |
| Soskel | what is the terminal command to find the MD5sum of a file? | 00:10 |
| kling0n | jubilee http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=975421 | 00:10 |
| Slart | Soskel: md5sum filename | 00:11 |
| Soskel | thanks | 00:11 |
| evilmm | the Intel 4965AGN plays nice with ubuntu correct? | 00:11 |
| Slart | Soskel: you might have to install something.. but I think it will tell you | 00:11 |
| tomchuk | evilmm: yup, running it fine on my x61 | 00:11 |
| jubilee | Pelo, k... & ino what X11 is... | 00:11 |
| Pelo | evilmm, check in the forum and in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport | 00:11 |
| Strangework | Pelo: Yuh huh, incompatible, the Stuffit guys have the format secured, so I am guessing very little applications can open it. | 00:11 |
| Jordan_U | Slart, Which is one of the reasons why I know it is not a problem with the repositories, and dpkg is fine once I grab packages from packages.ubuntu.com, or with smart so it's not a dependency problem | 00:11 |
| astro76 | jubilee, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticsTouchpad#shmconfig | 00:11 |

| jubilee | thx astro76 | 00:12 |
| Pelo | jubilee, I mean nothing by it , we can'T tell the user's expertise level from just a few lines | 00:12 |
| Jordan_U | Slart, But if it's not a problem with the repositories or dependencies , but is most definitely a problem with apt then I really don't know what is left that could be causing these problems | 00:12 |

| * Pelo does a little victory dance in honor or jacob | 00:14 |

| * Pelo is feelling a little silly tonight | 00:15 |
| scout | I would really like to be able to continue to use sudo and access my administration | 00:15 |
| kelsin | scout: because it hasn't reset yet in your shell for groups, sudo doesn't trust that for security reasons | 00:15 |
| jacob | Pelo, thx for helping out | 00:15 |
| Pelo | R4ist|, sorry what were you inquiring about ? | 00:15 |
| Centaur5 | bulmer: Yes, we have some web applications running on that server and SSL is enabled because we're going to setup Chillispot. | 00:15 |
| Pelo | jacob, no problem | 00:15 |
| scout | kelsin, k... but is there a way to revert this ? | 00:15 |

| TroXer | s | 00:16 |
| kelsin | scout: you need to add yourselfs to the admin group again, I don't know exactly the best way to do, probably with the rescue disk adding your username to the admin group line in /etc/group | 00:16 |
| onats | !ati | 00:16 |
| ubotu | To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 00:16 |

| R4ist| | Pelo: i want ;d i like shell | 00:16 |
| Jordan_U | Pelo, Sorry to ask you specifically but do you have any idea what could cause problems with apt if not dependencies or repository settings in the sources.list? | 00:16 |
| jacob | Pelo, i've seen you a couple of times in this channel, i'll like to thank you and i look forward into you for fixing my system issues | 00:16 |
| Pelo | TroXer, open menu > system > admin > software sources, and uncheck the cd from the frist tab, right at tthe bottom, then try the upgrade again | 00:16 |
| R4ist| | it's not provlem for you | 00:16 |
| scout | kelsin, there isn't any other way than to add by using a rescue disk ? | 00:16 |
| jacob | Pelo, i've meet you when i first tried out ubuntu | 00:17 |
| IndyGunFreak | TroXer: i think you need to remove the CD source from your source list, then it will download all the packages. | 00:17 |
| narothepharoh | how do i get pics from my camera computer is not reading it at all | 00:17 |
| jacob | pelo ....for the first time | 00:17 |
| Pelo | R4ist|, I hae no idea what thaht means | 00:17 |
| astro76 | TroXer, disable the CD as a source in System > admin > software sources, or remove/comment out in /etc/apt/source.list lines referring to CD | 00:17 |
| kelsin | scout: unless you have another user in the admin group, I don't think so | 00:17 |
| * LOGAN wonders what extra setting is needed before firefox plugins will work | 00:17 |

| kelsin | scout: then most likely you'll need to use a rescue disk of some kind to edit the /etc/group file | 00:18 |
| Pelo | soldats, were a sad lot in here | 00:18 |
| jacob | Pelo, that's ok, im 17 yrs old, i have no life neither, except i just go to high school and go home to watch movies or use my laptop | 00:18 |
| soldats | Pelo, hah yea | 00:18 |
| Centaur5 | bulmer: Well my co-worker thinks that maybe our local apache server with ssl might be the conflict with accessing apple.com but I'm not sure why that would happen. | 00:18 |
| LOGAN | it lists appropriate plugins yet refuses to download | 00:18 |
| Pelo | jacob, talk you me when you are pushing 40 | 00:19 |

| bulmer | Centaur5-> as you can tell by just a ping from your client and you said its not responding right? | 00:20 |

| Centaur5 | bulmer: windows 207.46.225.221 apple 17.149.160.10 hotmail 216.74.180.189 | 00:27 |
| IndyGunFreak | not to mention i bert it will take forever, heaven forbid something goes wrong in the process. | 00:27 |
| astro76 | TroXer, ahh, it's named slightly differently in 6.06, also keep in mind to upgrade you have to go from 6.06 to 6.10 to 7.04 to 7.10, so you might consider a fresh install... alternatively wait for 8.04 which you can upgrade straight to | 00:27 |
| Pelo | narothepharoh, type blkid in the terminal and see if your camera is seen ? | 00:27 |
| TroXer | whens 8,04? | 00:28 |
| andrew[lappy] | jubilee workspaces as in desktops? | 00:28 |
| LOGAN | eek the plugin was 'installed' yet it isnt and asks for it again | 00:28 |
| IndyGunFreak | astro76: really?.. id idn't know that(going from 6.06 to 8.04).. obviously if thats the case, its because they are both LTS. | 00:28 |
| astro76 | TroXer, 4th month of 2008 ;) | 00:28 |
| jubilee | andrew[lappy] Yes. | 00:28 |
| Pelo | TroXer, the 8 is the year and the 4 is the month | 00:28 |

| IndyGunFreak | astro76: hmm, interesting, id idn't know that. | 00:28 |
| TroXer | thats a long wait:P | 00:28 |
| Pelo | LOGAN, which plugin is this ? | 00:28 |

| astro76 | RandomUsr, nope, only reason to use the cd is to not use the internet | 00:35 |
| muszek | thor: I'm not asking for a media player, just a command line utility to play a sound file | 00:35 |
| alain1 | anybody knows hot to install or guide in webdav | 00:35 |
| jubilee | andrew[lappy], sorry for delay... It's never happened before 7.10... and I'm coming from Feisty. I have no external mouse, and my girlfriend doesn't like using a mouse | 00:35 |

| northox | wtf | 00:36 |
| andrew[lappy] | jubilee so a clean install or a clean upgrade.... and could you try a mouse just to see if it has the same effect? | 00:36 |
| Bawbatos | what package do i want if i want to use an ipsec connection | 00:36 |
| LOGAN | maybe it I mix up some files from 7.10 into 6.04 untill it works again | 00:36 |
| Centaur5 | bulmer: yes | 00:36 |
| helluvaCSMajor | does anyone have any idea why random folders would appear about once per day in my home folder? | 00:36 |

| helluvaCSMajor | they are empty, if i copy and paste the name it is a bunch of spaces and question marks because it cannot display the name | 00:44 |
| bulmer | Centaur5-> thats port 80 and 0 == zero | 00:44 |
| Centaur5 | bulmer: Okay that still gave a connection refused | 00:44 |
| Slart | helluvaCSMajor: do a ls -l of your home folder and pastebin the result | 00:44 |

| Jordan_U | helluvaCSMajor, Sorry, the easiest thing to do if you don't know much ( and again don't mind us seeing all of the files and network connections your user currently has open ) is to just pastebin the output of "lsof", it will be long, you can save the output to a text file on your Desktop by running "lsof > ~/Desktop/lsof.txt" | 00:51 |
| Slart | helluvaCSMajor: unless... how did you mount your ntfs-drive? manually? what command did you use? | 00:51 |
| kelsin | Hyuukai: Rythmbox (Gnome+Ubuntu default) and banshee both support itunes sharing (They can't read itunes > 7 shares, but then again nothing but itunes can) | 00:51 |
| Neodudeman | ty jack | 00:51 |
| Jack_Sparrow | np | 00:51 |
| Hyuukai | i dont use itunes its ok :) i just have files and filesof mp3d | 00:51 |
| bulmer | Centaur5-> i cant see any thing that should block your client from getting to those sites..and I find it odd that you cant run netcat on localhost port 81 | 00:51 |
| Hyuukai | mp3s* | 00:51 |
| LOGAN | downloading virus scanner again :( | 00:51 |
| helluvaCSMajor | i followed a tutorial and it did not work | 00:51 |
| MilitantPotato | Hyuukai: you can mount shares that are via a Lan or similar, so it acts like an internal HD, much like you can do with Windows | 00:52 |
| Hyuukai | box|uk is the podcast an raido any good on it? | 00:52 |
| LOGAN | Live CD uses HDD it seems ;) | 00:52 |
| Jordan_U | helluvaCSMajor, It should "just work" in the newest version of Ubuntu | 00:52 |
| Hyuukai | Ah right i have never tried that i use samba right now to access them is that the same thing? | 00:52 |
| Slart | helluvaCSMajor: ok.. just thinking .. what would happen if you accidently mounted a ntfs-drive with your home-folder as mountpoint.. | 00:52 |
| Box|UK | Hyuukai, yea the podcasts and radio aint at all bad on banshee | 00:52 |
| helluvaCSMajor | i have 7.04 and i later discovered it shows up in the computer folder under places menu | 00:52 |
| Centaur5 | bulmer: So in other words I'm pretty well screwed over? :/ | 00:52 |
| Jordan_U | helluvaCSMajor, Are you using Ubuntu 7.10 ( codenamed Gutsy Gibbon ) ? | 00:52 |
| helluvaCSMajor | feisty | 00:53 |
| Hyuukai | How does raido work then i have never listened to a raido station online? :S | 00:53 |
| Hyuukai | I guess im missing out | 00:53 |
| bulmer | Centaur5-> not yet, i may just be missing something at the moment... | 00:53 |
| Jordan_U | helluvaCSMajor, What guide did you follow? | 00:53 |
| MilitantPotato | Hyuukai: yep, I'm using samba aswell, it's fairly easy to mount a samba share, instructions are all over google :) | 00:53 |
| helluvaCSMajor | i don't remember | 00:53 |
| kelsin | Hyuukai: (as a side note, when I sad they support itunes sharing that also means you can run ryhtmbox or banshee on two computesr and they can play each other's music) | 00:53 |
| Slart | helluvaCSMajor: could you pastebin the output from ps -A for us? | 00:53 |
| helluvaCSMajor | long time ago, i had this problem for about a year | 00:53 |
| Box|UK | well i browse to virgin radio and click listen now | 00:53 |
| helluvaCSMajor | sure | 00:53 |
| Slart | helluvaCSMajor: just to see if something is running amok in the background.. | 00:53 |
| Hyuukai | Ok thankyou, i barely even know what samba is tbh i just got told i can view my networked files :) | 00:53 |
| LOGAN | oh great now I cant install virus scanner??? | 00:53 |
| bulmer | Centaur5-> lets step back again...can you paste your new firewall rule? | 00:54 |
| Hyuukai | Im very very new and looking to get great new things on ubuntu like i am wanting to try get a new menu somehow the default one seems a little boring, wanna try get the apple one down the bottom as well | 00:54 |
| MilitantPotato | Hyuukai: gsambad is a great and simple way to configure samba, you can get it from synaptic | 00:54 |
| Jordan_U | helluvaCSMajor, Just so you know, ps -A will tell us all processes you have currently running | 00:54 |
| Slart | helluvaCSMajor: do these folders show up when you do something special? or just randomly every now and then? | 00:54 |
| Hyuukai | Ok thankyou very much :) can i do mounts in that or is this somthing different? | 00:54 |
| Centaur5 | bulmer: You mean the script with those lines commented out? | 00:54 |
| Box|UK | i have firestarter to launch on start up but the icon doesnt show in top panel unless i open it and shut it is it still running? | 00:55 |
| bulmer | Centaur5-> yes please | 00:55 |
| MilitantPotato | Hyuukai: that's to just get it working, I'm not sure if there's a program to easily mount shares | 00:55 |
| SpookyET | I'm getting multiple instances of nm-applet at startup | 00:55 |
| helluvaCSMajor | the folders show up every day, i don't know exactly | 00:55 |
| helluvaCSMajor | http://pastebin.com/d2ff24f4a | 00:55 |
| astro76 | Box|UK, you don't need firestarter running, it just configures the built-in firewall | 00:55 |
| quinton | I try to add more spaces to my workspace, and no matter what number I choose no more spaces appear. | 00:55 |
| Hyuukai | WEll it seems i can already access my windows networked files so i dont really need that? | 00:55 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !firewall | 00:56 |
| ubotu | Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE). | 00:56 |
| ari_stress | morning all :D | 00:56 |
| Box|UK | astro so it configures the inbuilt firewall which runs in the back ground? | 00:56 |
| Hyuukai | Also samba doesnt broadcast any of it over the net does it? its smb2www that does that? | 00:56 |
| astro76 | Box|UK, it's part of the kernel | 00:56 |
| Box|UK | thxs astro | 00:56 |
| Jordan_U | helluvaCSMajor, Have you tried creating a new user and seeing if it happens with that user's home folder as well? | 00:56 |
| helluvaCSMajor | no | 00:56 |
| Centaur5 | bulmer: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/47896/ | 00:57 |
| helluvaCSMajor | should i do that? or is there something else to check while i am on here? | 00:57 |
| naxa | bye | 00:57 |
| MilitantPotato | Hyuukai: if you're not having to enter a password to view your files anyone can see them that's connected to the LAN (unencrypted wifi here would be bad.) As far as people on the net seeing them, I'm not sure. | 00:57 |
| ari_stress | hello all, why my pidgin only shows my friends upto "P" alphabet? | 00:57 |
| Jordan_U | helluvaCSMajor, That might be good to test, you can be logged in as both users at the same time with "fast user switching" in Gutsy and just leave the other user doing nothing but having Gnome loaded | 00:57 |
| Hyuukai | I dont mind people on the lan i just dont want to be broadcastin them to the web thats all | 00:58 |
| Centaur5 | bulmer: Doesn't it seem kind of odd that it's only apple's and microsoft's websites that don't allow normal masquerading? :) | 00:58 |
| helluvaCSMajor | i am using feisty | 00:58 |
| Fosfatus | Ari are you Iceland man? | 00:58 |
| Slart | helluvaCSMajor: well.. nothing strange in there.. one instance of "sh" is running..but that might just be something running a script or something | 00:58 |
| FluxD | Can anyone tell me a good tool to search for files and folders | 00:58 |
| Jordan_U | helluvaCSMajor, Sorry, forgot | 00:58 |
| bulmer | Centaur5-> yeah very odd | 00:58 |
| MilitantPotato | ari_stress: try Buddies >Sort Buddies > By Status | 00:58 |
| kelsin | FluxD: updatedb and locate :) in the terminal | 00:58 |
| Centaur5 | bulmer: What are their websites doing that other don't.... :) | 00:58 |
| kelsin | FluxD: should just be able to do "locate <search-string>" and find files | 00:59 |
| Jordan_U | FluxD, locate / updatedb if you don't need to search within text files | 00:59 |
| Hyuukai | MillitantPotato: is there any way i can make sure they are just local and not going over the internet? | 00:59 |
| FluxD | kelsin: it can find stuff from the whole computer? | 00:59 |
| helluvaCSMajor | in case it matters, i installed Beryl | 00:59 |
| kelsin | Hyuukai: are you behind a router | 00:59 |
| MilitantPotato | Hyuukai: I'm not sure. | 00:59 |
| kelsin | FluxD: just searching filenames and dir names, yes | 00:59 |
| Jordan_U | FluxD, "sudo updatedb" to have it look for new files | 00:59 |
| Slart | FluxD: I have something called "Search for files" gnome search tool might be the name | 00:59 |
| Hyuukai | I am on a switch which is then connected to a router | 00:59 |
| FluxD | Slart: yea I think its same | 00:59 |
| FluxD | ty Jordan_U Slart kelsin | 01:00 |
| kelsin | Hyuukai: unless you're router forwards the samba ports to a computer there is no way for outside people to get to them (without ssh forwarding) | 01:00 |
| Jordan_U | Slart, FluxD The default gnome search tool does not use locate | 01:00 |
| Slart | helluvaCSMajor: I don't think beryl would do that... never had it creating folders all over the place.. | 01:00 |
| Hyuukai | And i woul have to mannually set that up in order for that to have happened right? | 01:00 |
| kelsin | Hyuukai: yes | 01:00 |
| Slart | helluvaCSMajor: were the folders empty? no files in there? | 01:00 |
| Jordan_U | Slart, FluxD Pre Gutsy it is incredibly slow since there is no indexing, and in Gutsy it uses tracker | 01:00 |
| Hyuukai | Ok thankyou :) | 01:00 |
| bulmer | Centaur5-> i looked at your rules again and just nothing glaring...i dont see why your client will not get to those sites | 01:00 |
| Hyuukai | hmmm i am on pigeon and my text is shakin when i type | 01:01 |
| FluxD | Jordan_U: tracker is an indeer? | 01:01 |
| helluvaCSMajor | correct | 01:01 |
| FluxD | Jordan_U: tracker is an indexer? | 01:01 |
| Hyuukai | is that some strang effect i have on compiz fusion? :S | 01:01 |
| FluxD | Hyuukai: its pidgin :p | 01:01 |
| * Slart had to shut indexing off.. it just ran wild.. used 100% cpu for several hours.. | 01:01 |
| Centaur5 | bulmer: It's a very basic script that we found online....it doesn't make any sense. | 01:01 |
| === yns is now known as PiJaMaLi_NiNja |
| Hyuukai | Oh does i do that automaticall? | 01:01 |
| FluxD | Slart: same here | 01:01 |
| Box|UK | just googled a bit for linux msn messenger and came up with kmess now not sure if Kmess or Amsn is the way to go | 01:01 |
| Jordan_U | Slart, FluxD The default gnome search tool does not use locate | 01:01 |
| Jordan_U | Slart, FluxD Pre Gutsy it is incredibly slow since there is no indexing, and in Gutsy it uses tracker | 01:01 |
| * nickrud_ really liked beagle, with user_xattr | 01:01 |
| Hyuukai | I knew what i meant! :P | 01:01 |
| PriceChild | Box|UK, use pidgin | 01:02 |
| Hyuukai | SO yeah is it an effect i have on to do with compiz fusion | 01:02 |
| Centaur5 | bulmer: It was working fine with firestarter but it didn't work with ipkungfu and this custom script. | 01:02 |
| YouKnowMe | pidgin ftw | 01:02 |
| Jordan_U | nickrud_, Why the past tense? | 01:02 |
| FluxD | Jordan_U: updatedb refreshes file name and folders? | 01:02 |
| Box|UK | ok ill try pidgin | 01:02 |
| Jordan_U | FluxD, Yes | 01:02 |
| Hyuukai | Pidgin im on now Box :) its good | 01:02 |
| nickrud_ | Jordan_U, because I haven't got around to setting it up on my new install. Giving tracker a chance | 01:02 |
| Hyuukai | im not sure ho to use perform on irc on it though :( dunno i i can | 01:02 |
| Jordan_U | FluxD, And IIRC it is never run unless you run it explicitly | 01:02 |
| kelsin | FluxD: yes, it's run daily by default (the slocate file in /etc/cron.daily) | 01:03 |
| PriceChild | Box|UK, installed by default ;) | 01:03 |
| Hyuukai | can anyone tell me why my text is shaking when i type it in pidgin? | 01:03 |
| Jordan_U | FluxD, I guess I don't RC ;) | 01:03 |
| Abari | laaynn bana yardýmcý olacak var mý? | 01:03 |
| FluxD | Jordan_U, kelsin updatedb: fatal error: You are not authorized to create a default slocate database! | 01:03 |
| Slart | helluvaCSMajor: I would go with Jordan_U's suggestion.. create another user and see if the same thing happens to that users home folder.. second choice would be to run lsof and try to catch whatever is doing this "in the act" so to say.. | 01:03 |
| prakriti | Box|UK : I use pidgin, its nice | 01:03 |
| kelsin | FluxD: "sudo updatedb" | 01:03 |
| Jordan_U | FluxD, "sudo updatedb" | 01:03 |
| bulmer | Centaur5-> also add these on your rules. iptables -A INPUT -i lo -j ACCEPT; iptables -A INPUT -o lo -j ACCEPT; | 01:03 |
| FluxD | oops | 01:03 |
| helluvaCSMajor | ok, ill do it later, thanks for the help | 01:04 |
| kelsin | FluxD: you can use it to create you're own databases if you want, but with no arguments it tries to update the system database, hence you need sudo | 01:04 |
| Box|UK | K thxs for the heads up on pidgin im new lol so new it was a n00b question | 01:04 |
| FluxD | kelsin: sudo locate after that? | 01:04 |
| bulmer | Centaur5-> that enables your local loopback..and lets try running that long netcat command again | 01:04 |
| emily_ | are there any free pc-to-phone services for linux? | 01:04 |
| kelsin | FluxD: you can locate without sudo | 01:04 |
| Jordan_U | FluxD, No, just "locate" | 01:04 |
| YouKnowMe | man, wtf, I usually get like 180Kbs downstream, I'm capping at like 39... | 01:04 |
| soldats | emily_, you can text any phone with pidgin | 01:04 |
| emily_ | soldats: I was thinking more along the lines of voip | 01:05 |
| FluxD | Jordan_U, kelsin how about searching for files with lets say certain extension like mp3 | 01:05 |
| Jordan_U | emily_, Wengophone is pretty cheap | 01:05 |
| Jordan_U | emily_, And is Free Software | 01:05 |
| bulmer | Centaur5-> thats essential to have local loop lo to be active in your firewall | 01:05 |
| prakriti | how do you text phones with pidgin? | 01:05 |
| astro76 | emily_, http://www.gizmoproject.com/learnmore-allcallsfree.html | 01:05 |
| ekim|linux | Hey | 01:05 |
| kelsin | FluxD: "locate <search> | grep mp3" | 01:05 |
| Jordan_U | FluxD, locate .mp3 | 01:05 |
| soldats | emily_, ahh im not sure about that i just use text | 01:05 |
| kelsin | FluxD: hence the power of using the command line | 01:05 |
| FluxD | kelsin: nice :) | 01:05 |
| zitsep | hi! how can i make ubuntu change my eth1's ethernet address by default? i mean at startup. i can change it manually but i need to do it auto. | 01:05 |
| Hyuukai | i didnt know u could text phones | 01:05 |
| bulmer | Centaur5-> btw, its el oh, not el zero | 01:05 |
| emily_ | Jordan_U: haha i'm cheap.. anything free? I know windows had "adcalls" | 01:05 |
| Neodudeman | so i downloaded the flashplayer9 for linux tar.gz file, and i tar xvfz'd it, and i sudo ./flashplayer-installer; but when i input /usr/lib/mozilla as the installation path for mozilla, it gives me a warning, and asks for a valid install path | 01:06 |
| Centaur5 | bulmer: that caused an error trying to run the script saying can't use -o with input | 01:06 |
| Box|UK | ok n00b question in pdgin i have an msn messenger account but i registered it with a gmail addy instead of hotmail but it wont omit the hotmail addy | 01:06 |

| soldats | prakriti, fo the united atates | 01:06 |
| prakriti | soldats : so what service? | 01:06 |
| Jordan_U | FluxD, locate supports regular expressions, so if you learn to use regular expressions you can search by any criterion you could imagine :) | 01:06 |
| kelsin | emily_: without a company running it (for money) I don't know of one. | 01:06 |
| astro76 | Box|UK, what do you mean omit the hotmail address? | 01:06 |
| Hirvinen | Whoops. | 01:06 |
| emily_ | astro76: that looks promising, but it's only 20 free minutes, right? | 01:06 |
| bulmer | Centaur5-> umm instead of -o try -output | 01:06 |
| ctothej | Neodudeman: you can always copy the files to /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins later from /usr/lib/firefox/plugins | 01:07 |
| Neodudeman | @ctothej: doh. thanks | 01:07 |
| FluxD | Jordan_U: oh ok thx | 01:07 |
| soldats | prakriti, nono the + means add number and the "1" is the country code the you insert the arecode and number | 01:07 |
| stormrider | Hi, I just installed ubuntu on a friend's sony vaio, and under gnome, the volume control works flawlessly, but under KDE if I try to put it up, it goes to 11% and down goes to 0, any ideas on how to get this to work? | 01:07 |
| astro76 | emily_, not sure, I think you can keep it renewed, but it is a promotional thing | 01:07 |
| kelsin | FluxD: find does the searching slowly, but allows you to search by almost ANYTHING relating to files (by owners / permissions / mod or create time / etc) | 01:07 |
| Box|UK | never mind did crtl +A and pigdin added @hotmail to the end ivee just deleted that part of it | 01:07 |
| Slart | FluxD: and grep is a very nice thing to know.. it's just so darn useful in all kinds of situations | 01:07 |
| Neodudeman | ctothej: the /usr/lib/firefox did the trick. thanks | 01:07 |
| prakriti | soldats : right, but on my account selection, what account do you select when you add a phone number? | 01:07 |
| kelsin | FluxD: I mean find the command | 01:07 |
| Jordan_U | FluxD, Including something as complicated as "search for file names that contain in them text which could be a valid email address" or any other stupid idea ;) | 01:07 |
| emily_ | astro76: so you have to sign up for a new account every time you want to use another 20 minutes lol | 01:07 |
| Hirvinen | zitsep: man interfaces or network under the administration menu in Gnome. | 01:07 |

| maslenka | i have notebook with build in lcd display with resolution 1024x768 and external lcd with res 1680x1050 | 01:12 |
| olskolirc | Slart, I'm on kde | 01:12 |
| bjbum | oh Hyuukai ? | 01:12 |
| TheZealot | Slart: is says debug: check for accounts... I tried to read the man page, but there isn't one | 01:12 |
| Hyuukai | YEah i had major problems | 01:12 |
| astro76 | pope22, no, there's a blacklist for cards which don't work well with it | 01:12 |
| maslenka | and i can't find a way how to make 1680x1050 on that second display | 01:12 |
| quinton | Pherhaps someone here can guide me through installing kiba dock? | 01:12 |
| Slart | olskolirc: oh.. then I guess I should say.. konqueror? | 01:12 |
| Hyuukai | when i tried to install it either from the first item or the one below it it loaded the kernel then it went blank? | 01:12 |
| bjbum | yup Hyuukai | 01:13 |
| bjbum | exactly that | 01:13 |
| === rlkaufman_ is now known as knixxi |
| Hyuukai | What graphic card do you have? | 01:13 |
| soldats | TheZealot, "man empathy" or "empathy --info/help" | 01:13 |
| maslenka | mobile x600 | 01:13 |
| Slart | TheZealot: hmm.. then I don't know.. it just happens sometimes that a program doesn't create an icon to start it with.. | 01:13 |
| olskolirc | yes, Slart it's empty after boot up I have to mount my external drives | 01:13 |
| bjbum | nvidia 8600M GT | 01:13 |
| quinton | Would anyone mind guiding me through installing kiba dock? | 01:13 |
| Lunar_Lamp | My laptop CPU is in "ondemand" mode at the moment, but I want it to be switched to "maximum/performance" mode. How do I do this? | 01:13 |
| Hyuukai | ah yeah i have a 8 series it seems to be a problem with 8 series and amd i think :S | 01:13 |
| Box|UK | bjbum, can you load in safe mode? | 01:13 |
| Centaur5 | bulmer: I don't know, I see lo just fine using ifconfig | 01:13 |
| ekim|linux | I finally did it | 01:13 |
| bjbum | I tried box, but I still get the blank screen | 01:14 |
| Neodudeman | so i have another problem: whenever I try to add a new program in the add/remove program manager, it gives me a "The list of applications is not availabe[sic]" error, and makes me download 6 files, and doesn't let me install the program | 01:14 |

| pope22 | this is going to paint me as the relatively new linux user that I am (i absolutely had had enough when crapped out again last week) but what is a blacklist, and what does it do? | 01:14 |
| Slart | olskolirc: I'm sorry.. I don't know how to fix that.. perhaps someone else knows.... normally stuff automount afaik | 01:14 |
| Hyuukai | basically what i had to do was get the laternative cd, then when i installed it, it wouldnt boot into the gui so i had to boot in recovery then change the ifconfig file so my graphics driver was using vesa | 01:14 |
| ekim|linux | aww come on... | 01:14 |
| Box|UK | im an XP whore i still cant bring myself to break away | 01:14 |
| * bruenig refuses to come on | 01:14 |
| Hyuukai | then i used envy to get the latest graphics driver | 01:14 |
| ekim|linux | well...I am still dual booting | 01:14 |
| olskolirc | ok Slart thanks | 01:14 |
| astro76 | !envy | Hyuukai | 01:14 |
| ubotu | Hyuukai: envy is not needed or supported. Use the Resticted Manager to install binary drivers and see « /msg ubotu binarydriver » | 01:14 |
| ekim|linux | Ok...I can't fake any real questions... | 01:14 |
| olskolirc | I downloaded automount and I still have to mount it myself | 01:14 |
| ekim|linux | so I guess I am off to off-topic | 01:14 |
| olskolirc | I'll wait for the next release Slart thanks | 01:15 |
| soldats | ekim|linux, good luck ;) | 01:15 |
| MilitantPotato | I liked the old Envy message. | 01:15 |
| Slart | olskolirc: good luck | 01:15 |
| bulmer | Centaur5-> you can type those two lines separately..dont need to be in one single line | 01:15 |
| Rafabe | hi | 01:15 |
| Hyuukai | Does that help you at all? | 01:15 |
| chetnick | is there actually some good action games made for linux? | 01:15 |
| Centaur5 | bulmer: The first line worked fine it's the 2nd line that gives the bad argument lo error. | 01:15 |
| bjbum | I think I might give that a shot Hyuukai | 01:15 |
| Hyuukai | chetnick action as in fps? | 01:15 |
| MilitantPotato | chetnick: yep, check google | 01:16 |
| Hyuukai | if you need help i can give abit, try alternative cd first you might have better luck than me | 01:16 |

| Rafabe | I need the help of a linux expert. X will no longer boot after I changed drivers from the proprietary ATI to the open one. Reconfiguring xorg.conf (either directly or by running dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg) did not work | 01:16 |
| zitsep | macchanger :) | 01:16 |
| soldats | chetnick, use synaptic and search for games | 01:16 |
| zitsep | thank you all! bye | 01:16 |
| Box|UK | bjbum, while youve got tinternet google your card linux probs | 01:16 |
| Hyuukai | but if its the same as me you have to install from the alternative cd then boot in recovery and change the driver to vesa that your 8600 uses then use envy to instal the newest driver | 01:16 |
| soldats | chetnick, try nexiuz | 01:17 |
| bulmer | Centaur5-> my fault, i meant for the 2nd one to be OUTPUT, i copied/pasted wrong.. | 01:17 |

| steven_ | Hubris2, which device specificaly are you having issues with? | 01:24 |
| craigbass1976 | Hubris2, what's your /etc/fstab look like? | 01:24 |
| Hubris2 | craigbass1976: posted at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/47899/ | 01:24 |
| simplechat | Centaur5, whats going to windowsupdate? | 01:24 |
| bjbum | Hyuukai: do you know if it's just the fact that the alternate installer cd has a text installer that it works? or does it install differently? the livecd I have of gutsy right now actually gives the option to use the text installer, but I've not tried it just yet | 01:25 |
| Centaur5 | simplechat: I can't access windowsupdate.microsoft.com, apple.com, hotmail.com ever since I started using an iptables script. | 01:25 |
| big_area | anyone know how to make chatzilla open in a firefox tabs? | 01:25 |
| argetlam_ | How do I indicate a space in a path in fstab | 01:25 |
| big_area | *tab | 01:25 |
| bulmer2 | Centaur5: really? wow, thats odd to observe a checksum error on a link | 01:25 |
| Hyuukai | the text installer works yes but it didntwork for me on the live cd | 01:25 |
| simplechat | Centaur5, are you using moblock or peerguardian? | 01:25 |
| bjbum | I see | 01:25 |
| Hyuukai | the alternative cd worked for me where as text installer on the normal one didnt but you can try the text installer | 01:26 |
| MilitantPotato | Hubris2: try auto,nouser,rw,exec,sync 0 0 | 01:26 |
| bulmer2 | Centaur5: i have to take off for now..hopefully someone can pick up.. | 01:26 |
| Hyuukai | I tried to play an mp3 on bashee it said i needed a codec so i went to get tht and then it failed now when i run bashee it keps trying to play the mp3 and failing not opening banshee properly? | 01:26 |
| bjbum | if it didn't work for you i''m probably going to have the same problem. i'll just check it real quick | 01:26 |
| craigbass1976 | Hubris2, what's the two for on the end? Does the windows partition mount up auto? | 01:26 |
| Hubris2 | MilitantPotato: Doesn't it default to auto if not stated? | 01:26 |
| Centaur5 | simplechat: no. I was using firestarter up until Sunday and everything worked. Ever since I switched to ipkungfu and now this custom script I can't go to those sites. | 01:26 |
| MilitantPotato | Hubris2: I thought it was noauto, but you're probably right | 01:26 |
| Centaur5 | bulmer2: Thanks very much for your help. You gave me a lot of your time and I appreciate it! | 01:26 |
| Hubris2 | craigbass1976: It has a 2, because reading the man page, any filesystem other than root should be 2 | 01:27 |
| Hubris2 | Yes - /dev/sda1 does automatically mount successfully | 01:27 |
| craigbass1976 | Hubris2, lemme look at my fstab... I have home on a different partition | 01:27 |
| orionx | Whats up guys ive got a question. Lately when i boot my computer it says it needs to do system maintenance and it asks for my root password. I do that but for some reason it isnt mounting my hard drive that is mounted at /home do you think this is a result of a failing hard drive or just something got messed up? | 01:27 |
| Hyuukai | for banshe to run mp3s i need gstreamer? | 01:27 |
| Smegzor | ok, I've managed to confirm that I have sshd running and I can ssh into my file server. However I get connection refused when i try to ssh into my own pc from my network. Where do I look to find out why its not accepting remote ssh connections? | 01:27 |
| Hyuukai | Box|uk ? | 01:27 |
| MilitantPotato | orionx: what's the output of sudo mount -a say? | 01:28 |
| Hyuukai | Or anyone that can confirm it for me | 01:28 |

| bjbum | Hyuukai: at what point did installing from the text installer on the livecd fail for you? | 01:29 |
| silent_ | does anyone else here have problems playing youtube videos with gnash? | 01:29 |
| Fawkesfyre | make bzImage should work on a clean install ? | 01:29 |
| Hyuukai | bjbum it failed when it started loading kernel it did the same and went blank | 01:29 |
| kitche | silent_: probably a lot gnash doesn't really handle flash very well still | 01:29 |
| craigbass1976 | Smegzor, /etc/init.d/ssh restart and see what happens. Also, did you apt-get install open-ssh? | 01:29 |
| Hyuukai | Box|uk: yo there? | 01:30 |
| Smegzor | no just apt-get install ssh | 01:30 |
| craigbass1976 | Hubris2, I didn't see too much different, but mine is a bit different than yours | 01:30 |
| Box|UK | Hyuukai, wassup was googling | 01:30 |
| Hubris2 | craigbass1976: Yours only has the UUID entries, it only has a /dev entry for the cdrom. | 01:30 |
| Smegzor | i think I have open-ssh installed as well | 01:30 |
| craigbass1976 | Smegzor, try the open-ssh | 01:30 |
| Hyuukai | ah cool banshe when trying to play a file like mp3 you have to instal a plugin/condec? | 01:30 |
| Hyuukai | gstreamer? | 01:30 |
| kitche | Smegzor: ssh is installed by default you need openssh-server | 01:30 |
| craigbass1976 | And try starting/restarting it to see what happens | 01:30 |

| thegattaca | hi | 01:31 |
| orionx | MilitantPotato: when i bot my computer it says that /dev/hdb1 contains a file system with errors, check forced. It does this every time but it doesnt seem to fix anything. | 01:31 |

| MilitantPotato | orionx: what file system is it? | 01:31 |
| andrew[andrboot] | hmm | 01:31 |

| craigbass1976 | MilitantPotato, what do you mean? | 01:31 |
| craigbass1976 | remove? | 01:32 |
| Smegzor | kitche: ok I have installed it. Is there any setup to do? How do I start it? | 01:32 |
| MilitantPotato | craigbass1976: purge | 01:32 |
| Box|UK | opps yes sorry i had to download gstream for banshee to work | 01:32 |
| Jack_Sparrow | thegattaca: : from what I understand the installer has not been updated for the recent flash udate. You need to grab the tar.gz from adobe and install the .so to your ~/.mozilla/plugins/ | 01:32 |
| craigbass1976 | MilitantPotato, and special repo? I'm using feisty | 01:32 |
| MilitantPotato | craigbass1976: apt-get --help | 01:32 |
| craigbass1976 | phat | 01:32 |
| craigbass1976 | forgot that one | 01:32 |
| MilitantPotato | craigbass1976: ah, not sure if it's in feisty. | 01:32 |
| orionx | MilitantPotato: its the default one i believe thats ext3. I have my home partition mounted to a different hard drive | 01:32 |
| thegattaca | okay :) | 01:32 |
| craigbass1976 | Started getting used to CentOS again | 01:32 |
| MilitantPotato | craigbass1976: I have a .deb with all the dependencies I made, but I wouldn't recommend trusting .deb files from strangers. | 01:32 |
| Hyuukai | grrr damn you banshee! my banshee when i load it just freezes | 01:33 |

So can anyone tell me either (general) how one goes about finding what sources to add to sources.list for a new experimental package or (specific) how to do so for xmonad? | 01:38 |

| Jordan_U | MilitantPotato, Sorry, for asking you directly but I am getting a little desperate with this problem and hope you are knowledgeable about how apt decides that a package has a candidate available. My problem is that apt does not see some packages like "dpkg" as having an installation candidate, I have pretty thoroughly ruled out dependency / sources.list problems and don't know what is left that could be causing problems | 01:38 |
| Alex777 | If someone will and can help me PM ME because I cant make my mouse work in Ubuntu Gutsy, it says CANT GRAB MOUSE | 01:38 |

| Alex777 | If someone will and can help me PM ME because I cant make my mouse work in Ubuntu Gutsy, it says CANT GRAB MOUSE | 01:40 |
| Jordan_U | MilitantPotato, No, it's packages like "dpkg", packages that I KNOW are in the repositories and I can grab and update other packages in main | 01:40 |
| MilitantPotato | pbx: you could attempt to add the hardy repos, not sure if it will install right. | 01:40 |

| ubotu | The Win32 codecs are available from the Medibuntu repositories (see « /msg ubotu medibuntu »), and for releases prior to Gutsy, also at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages | 02:07 |

| ubotu | sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information. | 02:08 |
| Pelo | !root | ntadmin | 02:08 |
| bronson | Like, try to set it so Control-Shift-W launches a Terminal. | 02:08 |
| ubotu | ntadmin: 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 | 02:08 |

| Fawkesfyre | Jack_Sparrow: ok.. and how should i use this information | 02:15 |
| tiaz | I am running conky, but it does not seem to impact the problem (so I don't think the right click is being sent to conky, for example) | 02:15 |
| DeiviD | or whatever its called | 02:15 |
| DeiviD | you might want to try | 02:15 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Fawkesfyre: It should show up as ttySx Test in terminal sudo screen /dev/ttySx | 02:15 |
| DeiviD | -if the file is small enough- | 02:15 |
| tiaz | any ideas? I've found other people with this problem, but they generally have blank keys files, and I don't. | 02:15 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Fawkesfyre: x is where you see your modem | 02:15 |

| DeiviD | theres some frontends | 02:16 |
| DeiviD | to configure your prefered applications | 02:16 |
| Fawkesfyre | Jack_Sparrow: ie wvdialconf does not find it | 02:16 |
| DeiviD | or whatever theyre called in english | 02:16 |
| tupson | to what line? | 02:16 |
| DeiviD | you might have luck in that | 02:17 |
| Kuropon_ | ? | 02:17 |

| Wolvenhaven | i am having a problem with vega strike in 7.10, the sound doesnt work and the cursor is unresponsive inflight | 02:17 |
| DeiviD | it can be a missconfiguration somewhere there | 02:17 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Fawkesfyre: do you see the modem with the first command I gave.? | 02:17 |
| Wolvenhaven | my best guess is i have a version compiled pre 7.10, but im not sure | 02:17 |
| tupson | Pelo: the line currently says /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.22-14-generic root=UUID=c212f47a-6ac8-4d76-ad03-619b97a22b10 ro quiet splash | 02:17 |

| Fawkesfyre | Jack_Sparrow: no, its an internal 56k AgereDSP | 02:19 |

It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages.

| localgod12 | how to i modify the netowrk config file for a static ip address? | 02:41 |
| Pelo | MirrorImage, ok first of all , if you can it is much better to 1st check in synaptic for that app and install from there if it is available, 2 get a deb file from the website where you got the app, much easier to install then compiling the source, if you don'T have either , we can tell you how to compile the source manualy | 02:41 |
| Pelo | localgod12, menu >system > admin> network | 02:41 |
| mssever | kae_: In that case, check out #ubuntu-bots | 02:41 |
| localgod12 | that no worky so well | 02:41 |
| mssever | localgod12: look in /etc/network | 02:42 |
| localgod12 | it never loads the window comes up but does load | 02:42 |
| Hyuukai | Can anyone tell me why my text is shaking when i type on pignin is it somthing to do with a desktop effect i have? :S | 02:42 |
| Pelo | Kuropon_, sorry about that man but if you can'T access a file on your own desktop to begin with there is something seriously wrong with your setup and nothing I do can actualy make it worse | 02:42 |
| localgod12 | yah i got the file i just dont know whow to set it up can some provide me with an example | 02:42 |
| kae_ | mssever, thank you! :] | 02:42 |
| kae_ | but what do i do there? | 02:42 |
| Kuropon_ | Pelo, I was able to access it until you told me to do this chmod things | 02:42 |
| mssever | localgod12: see man interfaces | 02:43 |
| Pelo | Kuropon_, the first thing I suggested was just changing thepermision of the folder so you could access it and play the file, I don'T get why it didnt, work , then I tried to change the premision to the file it self | 02:43 |
| MirrorImage | Pelo, I don't think it's in Synaptic, and there's no deb file that I can see on the page. ( http://www.sensi.org/~ak/pyslsk/ ) | 02:43 |
| mssever | localgod12: And the file in question is /etc/network/interfaces | 02:43 |

| danbhfive | Hyuukai: interesting, I dont have compiz turned on | 02:47 |
| MirrorImage | It's not baffling to me. Things in the terminal, that's baffling to me. | 02:47 |
| Pelo | bruenig, when doing aps I usualy recomment add/remove to newbies, less confusing then all thestuff in synaptic | 02:48 |
| mssever | Hyuukai: I use XChat, rather than Pidgin | 02:48 |
| bruenig | well if you count terminal, now you have 4 package managers | 02:48 |
| archibald | yes mssever | 02:48 |
| Pelo | MirrorImage, the terminal is your freind, learn the terminal , love the terminal, make love to the terminal , then make install love from the terminal | 02:48 |

| mssever | archibald: I have no idea what you're trying to say | 02:48 |
| MirrorImage | I refuse! | 02:48 |

| Hyuukai | pidgin yes | 02:49 |
| MirrorImage | Wait, people use pidgin for IRC? | 02:49 |

| dwxreaper | it says "connection refused" although it's not sending any packets to the server, shown by tcpdump | 02:50 |

| dwxreaper | with no . in the beginning | 02:55 |
| IndyGunFreak | biouser: any of the graphics programs w/ Ubuntu will do it... Gimp is a bit overkill for just resizing pics, but it will do the job nicely | 02:56 |

| psykidellic | bruenig, hehe. | 03:03 |
| mssever | GIMP22: A more elegant solution is to use file descriptors, but I couldn't tell you how to do that off the top of my head | 03:03 |
| psykidellic | I could use zip but gzip seems to compress better :) | 03:03 |
| bruenig | bzip2 maybe | 03:03 |
| GIMP22 | yeah I thought open would return a fd but it doesn't look that way :-\ | 03:03 |

| danbhfive | Budda| well, opera tries to get it from the general mozilla folder, you need to change it to the user's home folder: ~/.mozilla/plugins I believe | 03:14 |

| Joshooa | Oh I don't know what that is sorry, no suggestions | 03:14 |

| dub_ | thank rather | 03:18 |
| c0Ld | Joshooa: If you run with the "-windowed" flag you can play the game in windowed mode and still be able to use firefox/IMs | 03:18 |
