| jangari | scguy318: is there a different time/date configuration apart from that time/date applet on the panel? | 00:05 |

| zimon | Dappercom_, yeah .. but up to now, the driver for your soundcard was missing. now it's there | 00:07 |
| laughzilla | wols_ this means that flash doesn't work properly on ubuntu right now? | 00:08 |
| Dappercom_ | zimon: thats not help much :S | 00:08 |
| laughzilla | or rather that i can't install it properly at the moment? | 00:08 |
| rencore_ | how can i tell what my screen is | 00:08 |
| laughzilla | ok well i'll be patient if i have to be ... how long does this sort of stuff generally to get resolve in this community? i imagine a lot of folks wanna be able to view .swf files. | 00:08 |
| SuperVHS | who i find the version (server or desktop) is installed in one pc ??? | 00:09 |
| dxdemetriou | how can I change the resolution from gdm? I have installed Gutsy and it uses 1400x1050 instead of 1280x1024 | 00:09 |
| intelikey | Dappercom_ sudo modprobe <driver name here> get it working when satisfied with it, add it to /etc/modules | 00:09 |
| zimon | intelikey, like alsa-drivers? the /dev/dsp and stuff must be created during boot, i guess that's done before the kernel is started | 00:09 |
| dm | SuperVHS: There's no difference | 00:09 |

| zimon | intelikey, i read that ... but i don't know what's loaded in the initramfs .. | 00:11 |
| rencore_ | is there a command to see what my monitor is? | 00:11 |
| intelikey | zimon not the sound driver. | 00:11 |
| zimon | intelikey, alright :-) | 00:11 |

| Ubuntubruger8 | Funny... I was told Adobe Flash doesn't work ATM. However it was pretty easy to install. Seems that it is just the plugin in Synaptic which doesn't work? | 00:14 |

My battery autonomy is reduced at 1h20 with Ubuntu but with Windows XP it lasts 3h. I can't install the 'acpi-cpufreq' module not even the 'ACPI P-state driver' module. Can someone help me to know what is happening to me? | 00:20 |

| Ubuntubruger8 | scguy: I know it doesnt work with the flashplugin-nonfree package - but if you download and install manually theres no problem | 00:22 |
| wols_ | Zoo: yes | 00:22 |
| scguy318 | Ubuntubruger8: yeah, thats correct | 00:22 |
| Zoo | wols_: thanks, one more question, where is grub supposed to be writtin, ubuntu partition or windows? | 00:22 |
| wols_ | Zoo: which of your many partitions has a c:\NTLDR file (hidden)? that's the windows boot drive | 00:22 |
| Hit3k | katakaio, what if I ran itunes under wine? would that make a difference? | 00:23 |
| wols_ | Zoo: neither. MBR | 00:23 |
| wols_ | Zoo: with stage 1.5 and stage files in /boot/grub/ where menu.lst is too | 00:23 |
| Shadow147 | Zoo wols_ is right grub installed itself on the MBR | 00:23 |
| Zoo | Shadow147: k | 00:23 |
| bewst | I need to shrink a JFS filesystem (offline); can I use rsync to back it up, create a smaller one in its place, and rsync the data back? | 00:23 |
| Zoo | wols_: ther is no ntldr file | 00:23 |
| wols_ | Zoo: vista or xp? | 00:24 |
| Zoo | Shadow147: my partitions are just ubuntu, swap, music, and windows xp | 00:24 |
| katakaio | Hit3k: I've never tried it - I would avoid it on principle because I'm a linux snob 8-) | 00:24 |
| Zoo | wols_: my partitions are just ubuntu, swap, music, and windows xp | 00:24 |
| Shadow147 | Zoo wols_ is thinking of the boot.ini? | 00:24 |
| wols_ | Zoo: you have at least 2 FAT partitions. and without a hidden NTLDR file somewhere, windows cannot boot | 00:24 |
| Ubuntubruger8 | scguy: ok thanks for helping me to understand... | 00:24 |
| Hit3k | katakaio, so was I. | 00:24 |
| Shadow147 | Zoo I would get another hard drive and make that ubuntu's home | 00:25 |
| Zoo | wols_: Ehm, I dont know where the second one came from, my music partition is only fat32 | 00:25 |
| Zoo | Shadow147: Its a laptop, wish I could | 00:25 |
| Shadow147 | Zoo hmm | 00:26 |
| wols_ | Zoo: your partitioning is VERY broken | 00:26 |
| wols_ | Zoo: my error. sorry | 00:26 |
| wols_ | Zoo: sda1 is an extended aprtition | 00:26 |
| wols_ | Zoo: but on some partition on your disk there is a ntlodr. either there is one or windows can't boot. check all partitions | 00:27 |

| akos | okay | 01:55 |
| akos | brb | 01:55 |
| tim167 | bastid_raZor i was trying with dvd-rip but for some reason it wont transcode the files, it starts but it results in an avi file of 4kb | 01:56 |
| LHoT | Hello, how can I add an application to the drop-down menu? | 01:56 |
| IndyGunFreak | tim167: personally, i like acidrip | 01:56 |
| shameless | crdlb: found it, thanks again | 01:56 |
| IndyGunFreak | i find it better/easier to use than dvdrip | 01:56 |
| bastid_raZor | tim167:: i've never used dvd-rip.. i' | 01:56 |
| akos | ltcolonel, nope | 01:56 |
| bastid_raZor | tim167:: i've heard good tings about acidrip also.. may want to toy around with either or | 01:57 |
| apocalypti | LHoT: system -> preferences -> main menu | 01:57 |
| tim167 | IndyGunFreak, ah another one to try then, nice, the freedom of choice :) | 01:57 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !k9copy | 01:57 |
| ubotu | For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at !Medibuntu or (for Feisty and earlier) http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs | 01:57 |
| ltcolonel | akos- odd, last resort, reboot the box. | 01:57 |
| LHoT | thanks | 01:57 |
| akos | ltcolonel, okay, but shouldn't dmesg display some msgs on card insertion? | 01:57 |
| mattycoze | hey guys doees anyone know whether theres a channel that discusses things about SuSE linux? | 01:58 |
| Fezzler | How can I find info on my serial ports? If USB is ttyUSB0, what would Com1 be called? | 01:58 |
| bastid_raZor | workTime for me. | 01:58 |
| sparr | Fezzler: ttys0 | 01:58 |
| ubuntu | akos my guess would be problem with the usb port itself in linux if dmesg isn't showing anything when you plug into it | 01:58 |
| akos | ubuntu, it's a built-in reader | 01:58 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Fezzler: Find the modem by going to a terminal and typing dmesg | grep ttyS | 01:58 |
| Fezzler | akos: what you trying to do? | 01:58 |
| akos | ubuntu, like in a laptop | 01:59 |
| ubuntu | akos i see | 01:59 |
| akos | Fezzler, trying to get my ricoh card reader to woek | 01:59 |
| akos | Fezzler, *work | 01:59 |
| Glam | i got an error when i tried to make a new partition | 01:59 |
| Glam | mkfs.ext3/dev/sda4 | 01:59 |
| === ubuntu is now known as brian_ |
| === brian_ is now known as brian__ |
| akos | also, it *IS* working under windows, so it must be some software not correctly configured / instlalled | 01:59 |
| MasterShrek | Glam, sudo mkfs.ext3 /dev/sda4 | 01:59 |
| Glam | i type that in the terminal right? | 02:00 |
| MasterShrek | Glam, of course thats just formatting the partition, the partition needs to already exist | 02:00 |
| MasterShrek | yes in the terminal | 02:00 |
| Glam | ooh | 02:00 |
| egc | hi all | 02:00 |
| MasterShrek | happy holidays egc | 02:00 |
| egc | what are the special keys on a laptop keyboard called? i.e., vol up, vol down, mute | 02:00 |
| MasterShrek | multimedia keys i spose | 02:01 |
| MasterShrek | or special keys | 02:01 |
| Glam | it says command not found | 02:01 |
| egc | MasterShrek: thx, same to you! | 02:01 |
| sat_ | I've XP & Ubuntu. I'd like to install Nexenta (OpenSolaris). Can I install it without disturbing XP/Ubuntu. I'm worried as I'll be resizing the existing partitions. | 02:01 |
| egc | do you know what is responsible for providing their functionality? | 02:01 |
| egc | like what software? | 02:01 |
| Glam | and now i got an exclamation point with a clock and a black swuare in gparted | 02:02 |
| Glam | *square | 02:02 |
| Glam | i'm assuming that's not a good sign | 02:02 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Glam: I prefer the stand alone gparted to the gparted in the ubuntu livecd | 02:02 |
| brian__ | "sudo dmraid -ay" reports "RAID st "sil_aeabbjafcbae" already active but gparted doesn't see it... just the individual drives... any suggestions? | 02:03 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !gparted | 02:03 |
| ubotu | GParted is a !GUI partitioning program. Type « sudo apt-get install gparted » in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted-livecd.tuxfamily.org/ | 02:03 |
| egc | sat_, i've done so without problem. but i installed solaris express | 02:03 |
| MasterShrek | brian__, why do you need gparted to see the raid? | 02:03 |
| egc | opensolaris is really cool too | 02:03 |
| MasterShrek | i doubt its suppose to anyways | 02:03 |
| renegade420 | i am trying to setup my Ubuntu server at home..how do i obtain the ip address? | 02:03 |
| GMoo | howdy people> i am on my desktop and i type ls. i see "music" but i cannot go 'cd music' | 02:03 |
| GMoo | what is the problem ? | 02:03 |
| IndyGunFreak | gparted doesn't seem to work right in Gutsy.. works fine on my laptop w/ feisty, but won't work on the PC | 02:03 |
| IndyGunFreak | i usje the live CD... | 02:03 |
| brian__ | well i want to mount the array... but i dont know what fs is on them | 02:03 |
| brian__ | i don't remember | 02:04 |
| Glam | it was working before, then i tried to make a swap but i already had 4 main things | 02:04 |
| MasterShrek | renegade420, run ifconfig from the terminal it will tell you | 02:04 |
| MasterShrek | brian__, did you format it? | 02:04 |
| brian__ | MasterShrek i don't believe so | 02:04 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Glam: you can only have 4 primarty partitions, you need to create an extended and add logical partions in there | 02:04 |
| brian__ | MasterShrek i did in windows | 02:04 |
| sat_ | egc: cool. i'm trying Nexenta as it's similar to Ubuntu. so, resizing existing partitions won't affect Ubuntu/Xp, right? | 02:04 |
| MasterShrek | brian__, then its probably ntfs, if not use vfat | 02:05 |
| Jack_Sparrow | sat_: There are always dangers working at the partition level. | 02:05 |
| Glam | but now the 4th partition has some kind of issue | 02:05 |
| egc | sat_: well, you should back-up any important data before resizing a filesystem | 02:05 |
| akos | ltcolonel, nope... | 02:05 |
| mattycoze | ping | 02:06 |
| sat_ | Jack_Sparrow: ok. worst case, i'll reinstall everything. | 02:06 |
| egc | sat_: but if you do so, you should be fine and able to recover in the event something goes wrong | 02:06 |
| GMoo | howdy people> i am on my desktop and i type ls. i see "music" but i cannot go 'cd music' | 02:06 |
| GMoo | howdy people> i am on my desktop and i type ls. i see "music" but i cannot go 'cd music' | 02:06 |
| GMoo | howdy people> i am on my desktop and i type ls. i see "music" but i cannot go 'cd music' | 02:06 |
| Jack_Sparrow | sat_: Not to mention their installer properly recognizing the other os's and getting them into the grub or in some cases lilo menu | 02:06 |
| SamsLembas | My graphics sudenly and randomly stopped functioning. Detailes are listed in: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=649929 . Ayone have any ideas? | 02:06 |
| brian__ | mastershrek: both return mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/mapper/sil_aeabbjafcbae | 02:06 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !repeat > GMoo: | 02:06 |
| renegade420 | hrm i seem to get 127.0.0.1 | 02:06 |
| sat_ | jack_sparrow / egc: ok | 02:06 |
| GMoo | !repeate | GMoo: | 02:06 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about repeate - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 02:06 |
| egc | sat_: fyi, opensolaris has a livecd now too | 02:06 |
| MasterShrek | brian__, /dev/mapper/sil_aebbjafcbae? wtf is that? | 02:06 |
| egc | you can try playing with it | 02:07 |
| MasterShrek | brian__, the only raids ive encountered have been called /dev/mdXX | 02:07 |
| GMoo | Jack_Sparrow: why don't you TELL ME my answer instead of asking me to not repeate myself. | 02:07 |
| egc | youll probably need to use OSS drivers for sound either way | 02:07 |
| brian__ | mastershrek my _FAKERaid_ array | 02:07 |
| sat_ | egc: i tried live cd. but, i wanna try Nexenta (a distro of opensolaris). | 02:07 |
| Jack_Sparrow | GMoo: Because repeating is rude to the other users in the channel | 02:07 |
| J_Laptop | /dev/mapper is dmraid (software assisted hardware raid) | 02:07 |
| MasterShrek | oh fakeraid, never done one of them | 02:07 |
| IndyGunFreak | SamsLembas: wierd, have you tried reconfiguring xorg.conf? | 02:07 |
| renegade420 | my friend who helped me with the server told me to port forward port 22 | 02:07 |
| === talaren is now known as pteague |

| MasterShrek | i wouldnt ever make a raid on a dual boot machine, sounds like trouble to me | 02:08 |
| mwag | anyone know how to use Wine? | 02:08 |
| MasterShrek | yes | 02:08 |
| MasterShrek | wine file.exe | 02:08 |
| renegade420 | im kind of a n00b at this im running a linksys router | 02:08 |
| sat_ | egc: how was you experience with opensolaris | 02:08 |
| MasterShrek | from the command line | 02:08 |
| IndyGunFreak | !anyone | mwag | 02:08 |
| Sir_Funk | I want to have a partition for media like songs and movies, but I want to be able to access it both from Linux and XP. What kind of filesystem should it be? | 02:08 |
| ubotu | mwag: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? | 02:08 |
| brian__ | MasterShrk know that now... but theres about 80gigs of MP3s on there.. its not dual boot anymore | 02:08 |
| J_Laptop | renegade - are you trying to ssh from one machine to another behid your router? | 02:08 |
| akos | Can anyone else phelp me on an issue (e.g. not working) with my Ricoh card reader? | 02:08 |
| brian__ | MasterShrk i just don't want to lose all that music | 02:08 |
| SamsLembas | Mwag: use "sudo apt-get install wine" to install it, and then "wine " followed by the path to the .exe file to run an app. | 02:08 |
| mattycoze | ping | 02:08 |
| MasterShrek | Sir_Funk, ntfs will work | 02:08 |
| MasterShrek | pong | 02:08 |
| Sir_Funk | thanks :) | 02:08 |
| mattycoze | thx | 02:09 |
| egc | sat_: i liked it alot, i'll probably transition to it when it officially releases in april | 02:09 |
| egc | although, some media codecs will be problematic | 02:09 |
| MasterShrek | akos, my ricoh card reader doesnt work either | 02:09 |
| sat_ | egc: okay, i'll try and share my experience later. hope you catch you on this forum. | 02:09 |
| Jack_Sparrow | MasterShrek: I have to agree, raid and dual boot is looking for trouble | 02:09 |
| egc | mp3 is easy enough, but i didnt get dvd, mpeg, etc. yet | 02:09 |
| akos | MasterShrek, but it was working before reinstalling 7.10 | 02:10 |
| egc | im on solaris express developer edition right now | 02:10 |
| Jack_Sparrow | egc: did you install the restricted drivers ber the link | 02:10 |
| renegade420 | J_Laptop, when i tried to ssh like i did at my friends house it complained aobut port 22 | 02:10 |
| MasterShrek | akos, i dunno what to tell you, i dont try it very often, every once in awhile, ive never had it work though | 02:10 |
| egc | Jack_Sparrow, in opensolaris i dont that framework works the same | 02:10 |
| Jack_Sparrow | egc: Sorry, not for solaris | 02:10 |
| egc | i don't remember though | 02:10 |
| brian__ | jack_sparrow and MasterShrek I'm not dualbooting.. i'm trying to get the data off thats already on them. But it was put on there using windows. I am no longer using windows at all but i need to get the data back | 02:10 |
| MasterShrek | ic brian__, and you are sure that is the device name of the raid? | 02:11 |
| akos | MasterShrek, my other usb card reader doesn't work either | 02:11 |

| Get_A_Fix | good day, I installed Compiz on 6.06 LTS, it didn't run right so I uninstalled it through Synaptic. Now in the Gnome Desktop I have no upper window bars, the ones with the maximize minimize buttons, I cannot drag winows around the desktop, and all windows are stuck to the top right corner of the screen. Please, which files do I need to edit to get Gnome back to normal ? | 02:12 |
| evilzz | http://sexyoffice.office-on-the.net/ | 02:12 |
| Jack_Sparrow | brian__: Which is one reason I avoid raid these days, not to mention the drives are so much faster than when I needed raid to get systems up to speed | 02:13 |
| brian__ | jack_sparrow i raided them years ago with windows to make them one large drive to store my music collection on | 02:13 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Get_A_Fix: Did you install compiz with synaptic in Dapper | 02:14 |
| Jack_Sparrow | brian__: I have been there... and no I dont have any solutions | 02:14 |
| Get_A_Fix | no, I followed something in the wiki, used apt get | 02:14 |
| sat_ | egc: Can I install ubuntu apps on OpenSolaris. for example, skpye is availabe for Ubuntu. | 02:14 |
| IndyGunFreak | sat_: i don't think solaris is debian based | 02:15 |
| Glam | yay, finally i got it installing | 02:15 |
| ernesto | i have mplayer and a dvd. i try to play with mplayer dvd://1 -dvd-device /dev/cdrom1 and and i get: Couldn't open DVD device: /dev/cdrom1 | 02:15 |

| Glam | after 4 hours | 02:15 |
| Get_A_Fix | Jack_Sparrow: no, I followed something in the wiki, used apt get via Edgy backports | 02:15 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Get_A_Fix: It is a really bad idea to do that.. | 02:16 |
| egc | sat_: there are many opensource apps you can install; check out blastwave.org | 02:16 |
| IndyGunFreak | Get_A_Fix: why not just download and install gutsy? | 02:16 |
| GMoo | hey i have a question: how do i mount something to music | 02:16 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Get_A_Fix: I would pull those repos out asap... and hope for the best. | 02:16 |
| egc | sat_: also opensolaris comes with some, like pidgin, rhythmbox | 02:16 |
| Get_A_Fix | Jack_Sparrow:no way to fix Gnome ? | 02:16 |
| MasterShrek | brian__, reinstall windows, and backup the data on the raid maybe? then install ubuntu and make the raid in ubuntu, or do away with it if htats waht you want to do | 02:17 |

| sat_ | egc: i want skype due to video chat | 02:17 |
| Get_A_Fix | Jack_Sparrow: I would pull them if I knew how, just remove them from the repo llist ? | 02:17 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Get_A_Fix: Changing repos to a different release or distro really really messes up a system.. sort of what automatix does.. more trouble to untangle that we can handle in this channel | 02:17 |
| IndyGunFreak | Glam: depends on the video card.... sometimes it works, sometimes it doesnt, if it doesn't, just install, then set it up once installed. | 02:18 |

| Soskel | http://webtechmedia.net/ubuntu-7.10-desktop-i386.iso | 02:22 |
| IndyGunFreak | SamsLembas: you coudl try reconfiguring xserver, using only generic defaults, and see how it boots the GUI.., then setup any drivers, etc. | 02:22 |
| doctormo | The problem is that the boot process is all screwed up, takes forever to boot; is black until the logon and is generally slow | 02:22 |
| SamsLembas | IndyGunFreak- In response to recommending recofiguring X: I tried bootinf from live CD, and that did not work, so don't see why that would..... | 02:22 |

| Get_A_Fix | Jack_Sparrow: IndyGunFreak: Get_A_Fix: maybe its time to upgrade to a current version. - maybe he's right, I'll certainly try everything else first though, thanks people. | 02:22 |
| IndyGunFreak | SamsLembas: well, you shouldn't need a live cd to reconfigure x | 02:22 |

| MenZa | thompa: that sounds like a dodgy internet connection, rather than a problem with wget. | 02:23 |

| sat_ | ebc: | 02:26 |
| sat_ | ok, I'd like to see OpennSolaris's distros grow / mature. I hope Sun will look into the directions of its distros. It nees improvment. For example, look at the distro's of Ubuntu. It's clear vision for each of the distros. Currenlty, when the linux user looks at the distros of OpenSolaris, in my view, he/she might scratch the head. | 02:26 |
| sat_ | yes, nexenta seems to be okay to download and try. but, in terms of community / support / fund, i don't think any distro is strong. | 02:26 |

| dooglus | thompa: just my experience. I find the network connection in ubuntu drops out if you use it too much. | 02:32 |
| dooglus | thompa: wget is cross platform. | 02:32 |
| Glam | i'm confused, right now i'm following instructions so ubuntu will work. the instructions say | 02:32 |
| robdig | buggeredfstab: do you mean the panel? | 02:32 |
| Glam | o You must edit the /etc/initramfs-tools/modules file; adding a line with the word: piix | 02:33 |
| Glam | -- you should do this with your favorite unix editor; or simply type the command: | 02:33 |
| Glam | echo piix >> /etc/initramfs-tools/modules | 02:33 |
| thompa | dooglus: there has to be a reason for that | 02:33 |
| juano__ | !compile | fabio_ (have you read this yet) :) | 02:33 |
| buggeredfstab | robdig: I think so. it's the bar on top of the windows with the _ [] X at the end | 02:33 |
| Glam | i have no clue what that means. | 02:33 |
| ubotu | fabio_ (have you read this yet) :): Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first) | 02:33 |
| dooglus | thompa: yes, it's open source, free software. people can port it to any OS they like | 02:33 |

| ikonia | juano__: why does he have to do that | 02:48 |
| juano__ | ikonia: well, if he can't connect to his windows box, i have to check to see what settings are inside smb.conf | 02:48 |
| ikonia | Hot_Girl: you told me you had samba installed | 02:49 |

| juano__ | ikonia: default or not the problem is there, so i suggest to see the smb.conf file to see if everything is right, i wouldn't be 100% sure that everything in there is right, so i think to check the file is a valid option | 02:52 |
| ikonia | juano__: what is his error message ? | 02:53 |

| oic | I changed the home directory of my FTP and restarted vsftpd, but my firefox still shows the old directory.. Why is that? It's showing the right one in lftp though | 02:54 |
| juano__ | ikonia: so you think that smb.conf has nothing to do with an ubuntu being unable to connect via samba to a windows share ? | 02:54 |
| Glam | then after the bsod it leads me back to the grub loader, and there are 2 choices for vista basic | 02:54 |
| Glam | so i chose the 2nd one and it lead me to some acer thing | 02:54 |

| SamsLembas | Hello- When booting up, my computer shows the nVidia splash screen a few times before taking me to the GUI X error message (but the GUI is off to the side of the screen and unusable). My computer worked fine earlier today and I have not done any software updates since then. Is it possible to somehow reset my drivers to their default setting or something? | 03:18 |
| nalioth | RenatoSilva: #ubuntu-devel #ubuntu-motu are a couple of them | 03:19 |
| Watain | I changed the home directory of my FTP and restarted vsftpd, but my firefox still shows the old directory if I connect to localhost, but the new directory if I connect to the NAT IP.. Why is that? It's showing the right one in lftp though <--- Now it worked but it took more than half n hour to reflect the changes. Anyone know anything about this? ( I DID clear the cache, history and everything) | 03:19 |
| Schmick | ok... mikeaz, do you get the mesa bug when issuing fglrxinfo? | 03:19 |
| viper233 | adante : ok... what is it? for future reference? | 03:20 |
| RenatoSilva | nalioth: but these channels are related to developing ubuntu ITSELF, not developing ON IT | 03:20 |
| ikonia | Watain: when you say NAT ip do you mean the private or public ip | 03:20 |
| mac_ | juano | 03:20 |
| juano_1 | mac_: | 03:20 |
| mikeaz | schmick: i get no errors when i run fglrxinfo | 03:20 |
| mac_ | i tried | 03:20 |
| Watain | ikonia: Private | 03:20 |
| jack-desktop | I'm having trouble with sound - I keep hearing this clicking or tapping or some weird sound in the background when the volume is on | 03:20 |
| viper233 | adante : Alt-F1 .. just saw | 03:20 |
| mac_ | but i dont see any folders there | 03:20 |
| ikonia | Watain: ok, is it possible your router is caching when you hit the public ? | 03:20 |
| Glam | and at the same time i can't boot up vista anymore | 03:20 |

| RenatoSilva | Hi people, I'm building my 1st .DEB package, but I only know how to copy files to the system. To start, I want to know just how to put an icon of my application on the systenm menu. How???? Whinch kind of channel is suitable to this? Is there some #deb-packages or so? | 03:21 |
| Schmick | ohh... mikeaz, I guess U are using an ATI aren't you? | 03:21 |
| ikonia | RenatoSilva: nalioth suggested two good channels. | 03:21 |
| mikeaz | schmick: yessir | 03:21 |
| dthacker | RenatoSilva: check out the packaging guide | 03:21 |
| juano_1 | mac_: so you can connect to your windows pc with no errors? | 03:21 |
| Watain | ikonia: I didn't check the public one yet. My issue is with "localhost". It takes forever to update | 03:21 |
| Schmick | ok.. then we are off-topic.. join me on #ati | 03:21 |
| mac_ | nope, i can't do it still | 03:21 |
| mrdinkles | Having trouble installing wireless- I need to remove w/e i put on blacklist-- how do i do this? | 03:21 |
| ikonia | Watain: it just sounds like a caching issue. | 03:21 |
| mac_ | it doesn't connect | 03:21 |
| ikonia | Watain: try stopping the daemon and connecting with firefox, verify it's not getting a response (as the daemon is dead). | 03:22 |
| Fink | when i try to open a .rar archive with file roller it says "archive not supported" is there any way to fix this (i tried installing unrar, but to no avail) | 03:22 |
| juano_1 | mac_: emm, ok, waitain suggested earlier another thing , do this: alt + f2 , then type smb://<windowsip> and hit enter | 03:22 |
| condoulo | http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49564/ | 03:22 |
| _juan | Glam, I'm sorry i have no idea on vista, but i still suggest you get a copy of th alternate disk, for booting proiblems, super gub disk is an excellent choice | 03:22 |
| dthacker | mrdinkles: you put a wireless ethernet connection on what blacklist? | 03:23 |
| === diafic is now known as di[a]fic |
| RenatoSilva | ikonia: did you read my comment about these channels? Then what do u think? | 03:23 |
| Watain | ikonia: Okay, stopped the daemon but it's still accessible at localhost | 03:23 |
| ikonia | RenatoSilva: I think they are two excellent channels. | 03:23 |
| Watain | ikonia: Cleared the cache too | 03:23 |
| Watain | ikonia: The firefox cache, that is.. | 03:23 |
| ikonia | Watain: something is caching it, the question is what | 03:23 |
| Peddy | can someone please give me the output (so that I can see if anything is wrong with mine) of sudo /usr/sbin/cupsd -f | 03:23 |
| RenatoSilva | dthacker: I'm trying to find something on the internet but I got only too basic tutorials :( | 03:23 |
| ikonia | (glad you checked it with the daemon dead) | 03:23 |
| ikonia | Watain: can you confirm via ps that vsftp is actually dead. | 03:24 |
| Peddy | the -f option is to show it in the foreground | 03:24 |
| === mlg is now known as ardhi |
| Watain | ikonia: The vsftpd is dead. I tried to connect with lftp. It's only firefox that think it's still alive | 03:24 |
| viper233 | Glam : can you just boot up and see what paritions are available and then we can edit the grub config from there. Sounds like you've specified the wrong device somewhere. | 03:24 |
| mrdinkles | dthacker: no, while doing previous installs-- i put some bcm on blacklist-- how can i start all over without reinstalilng, i want to remove all old files-- blacklist clear, modprobes-- no clue what they are but i want to start over | 03:24 |
| mac_ | it says couldn't able to connect to windows network: | 03:24 |
| Glam | right now i'm on the livecd | 03:24 |
| dthacker | RenatoSilva: then you need to consult the channels that ikonia pointed you too, because that is where the help is | 03:24 |
| ikonia | Watain: at least we know firefox is somehow caching it. | 03:24 |
| Glam | that's the only thing i can boot from right now | 03:25 |
| RenatoSilva | ikonia: Ok, you didn't read my comment, tough seems to... | 03:25 |
| ikonia | RenatoSilva: there are some great guys in there who will take time to advise you. | 03:25 |
| nalioth | RenatoSilva: the debian new packagers guide is a great place to start on the web | 03:25 |
| ikonia | RenatoSilva: I read your comments fine, they are mistaken. | 03:25 |
| wilo_ | can someone help me | 03:25 |
| wilo_ | i need help with dependacies | 03:25 |
| _juan | by the way Glam, what kind of computer do you have? | 03:25 |
| Watain | ikonia: But i did "clear private data". Anything else I need to do? | 03:25 |
| Glam | acer 5315 [laptop] | 03:25 |
| ikonia | Watain: just thinking. I don't use firefox for ftp so I don't know how it behaves. | 03:25 |
| viper233 | Glam : well, what partitions have you got and what bootable partitions are there? you can use fdisk to inspected what partitions there are and what type they are | 03:25 |
| RenatoSilva | ikonia: hum OK | 03:26 |
| wilo_ | can someone help me? | 03:26 |
| ikonia | wilo_: what is the problem. | 03:26 |

| ikonia | wilo_: as you can see the channel is busy so don't expect a response straight away. | 03:26 |
| wilo_ | viper233, i cant install any application (7.10 ubuntu) | 03:26 |
| Glam | 2 is where windows is located, and 4 is where ubuntu is. | 03:26 |

| Watain | speeddemon8803: 1074 | 03:27 |

| dthacker | mrdinkles: I'm not understanding your question, sorry. | 03:27 |
| RenatoSilva | nalioth: this? http://www.sylence.net/stuff/Debian_Packaging_Manual.pdf | 03:27 |
| yo|| | it burns when i pee | 03:27 |
| viper233 | Glam : do any of them have the boot flag set? * under boot | 03:27 |
| ikonia | wilo_: it means the dependencies are broke so that package will not install | 03:27 |
| dthacker | offtopic: yo|| | 03:27 |
| ikonia | yo||: please stop that, you can see the channel is busy. | 03:27 |
| saxartist | I've been through all the "make alsa work" guides and all that, and run jack, etc. | 03:27 |

| Glam | @viper233 where do i find that at? | 03:27 |
| viper233 | wilo_ : what error message are you getting, any package in particular? | 03:27 |
| saxartist | rosegarden, noteedit, etc. don't play back at all! | 03:27 |
| wilo_ | ikonia, i cant install anything, amarok, or k3b anything | 03:27 |
| nalioth | RenatoSilva: no. the official debian guide is here: http://www.debian.org/doc/maint-guide/ | 03:27 |

| === ubuntu is now known as setianto |
| juano_1 | condoulo: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49566/ | 03:28 |
| dthacker | mrdinkles: that's what I don't understand. I am not familiar with a blacklist in the wireless ethernet configuration. | 03:28 |
| wilo_ | ikonia, im using 7.10 | 03:28 |
| viper233 | Glam : e.g. fdisk /dev/sda, press m for help, then p which will print the partitions and their type. | 03:28 |
| gerath | hey can anyone help with how to setup my laptop to recive beam files from my hand held in ubuntu.. | 03:28 |
| ikonia | wilo_: would you be able to put your /etc/apt/sources.list file in a pastebin please. | 03:28 |
| ikonia | gerath: wirless/bluetooth/infrared ? | 03:28 |
| Glam | @viper233, in the terminal? | 03:29 |
| gerath | thanks | 03:29 |
| viper233 | wilo_ : sounds like your /etc/apt/source.list file maybe at fault, is it asking for the CD all the time? | 03:29 |
| mrdinkles | How can i access my blacklist for wireless configuration? | 03:29 |
| wilo_ | ikonia, http://pastebin.ca/832359 | 03:29 |
| viper233 | Glam : yeah, terminal | 03:29 |
| wilo_ | but i fixed up the last line, and put a psca ein there | 03:29 |

| arooni | hey ubuntu team! i have a t61 laptop running gutsy. when i plug the network cable directly from my cable mode => laptop.... it 'connects' to the laptop.. BUT, i can't ping any server. additionally, when i plug in the same ethernet cable to my mom's old winxp comp i built for her.... it connects just fine (also with my sisters ibook)..... ideas? | 03:30 |
| ikonia | wilo_: just looking. | 03:30 |
| Glam | Viper233: it says no such file or directory | 03:30 |
| fsckr | i downloaded a game VDrift-2007-03-23-full-2.package how do i install it with that extension? Ive never seen that extension b4 | 03:30 |
| viper233 | Glam : no fdisk ??? | 03:30 |
| dthacker | arooni: is the laptop set to use DHCP? Do you have a DHCP server? | 03:30 |
| Glam | viper233, nope. | 03:31 |
| Glam | i'm on the livecd if it matters | 03:31 |
| arooni | dthacker, i dont have a dhcp server.... these are connections directly to whatever comes out of a broadband modem | 03:31 |
| arooni | dthacker, nots ure if dhcp is enabled on the laptop.... how do i check | 03:31 |
| ikonia | wilo_: first thing is to get rid of this line, unless you want to keep using the cdrom deb cdrom:[Ubuntu 7.10 _Gutsy Gibbon_ - Release i386 (20071016)]/ gutsy main restricted | 03:31 |
| viper233 | Glam : for Gutsy? .. | 03:31 |
| juano_1 | arooni: you are connected directy to ISP modem ? | 03:32 |
| dthacker | arooni: Network settings | 03:32 |
| arooni | juano_1, yes | 03:32 |
| mikedep333 | hey ikonia: I found a program that recovers as much data as possible from a corrupt tar.gz archive, it is running now | 03:32 |
| mikedep333 | http://www.urbanophile.com/arenn/hacking/gzrt/gzrt.html | 03:32 |
| Glam | viper233: yes | 03:32 |
| arooni | should i enable dhcp? i was on "roaming mode" before for wired connections | 03:32 |
| juano_1 | arooni: is it a dial-up pppoe internet connection ? | 03:32 |
| wilo_ | ikonia, i was using the ;software sources; app. how do i get to the source list in terminal? | 03:32 |
| ikonia | mikedep333: I doubt you'll get anything uless from it. | 03:32 |
| viper233 | Glam : can you run ls, cat, tar? | 03:32 |
| arooni | juano_1, no, always on broadband (by local cable company) | 03:33 |
| ikonia | wilo_: edit the file with a text editor, and just remove that one line or put a # in front of it. | 03:33 |
| juano_1 | arooni: oh i see | 03:33 |
| arooni | should i try dhcp? | 03:33 |
| arooni | instead of wired roaming mode | 03:33 |
| juano_1 | arooni: do what dthacker suggests, network settings and check to see if it is on dhcp yes | 03:33 |
| Glam | viper233: how do i do that? | 03:33 |
| wilo_ | ikonia, thats the prob, what is the command to edit the file, i need root privillages | 03:33 |
| Syco54645 | on an lcd monitor how do i smooth out the fonts? i am having the problem where some vertical lines are thicker than others in fonts | 03:33 |
| ikonia | wilo_: sudo | 03:33 |
| ikonia | wilo_: an easy editor is something like "nano" so "sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list" | 03:34 |
| viper233 | bintut : next-server is the tftp server that tftp clients will look at by default. | 03:34 |

| juano_1 | wilo_: and please disable all third-party ones | 03:47 |
| mac_ | why $sudo dhclient eth0 is failing, but i can connect to internt | 03:47 |
| viper233 | Glam : no.. | 03:47 |
| Rufus_ | what can i type in the terminal to get system information like my current version of ubuntu? | 03:47 |
| ari_stress | Neskaya: i have about 100 contacts | 03:47 |
| Neskaya | ari_stress, odd. | 03:47 |
| wilo_ | juano_1, ok ill disable 3rd party | 03:47 |
| juano_1 | wilo_: after that click CLOSE below and then reload in the main synaptic window | 03:48 |
| underdaw1 | is there a bash command to see memory usage, cpu usage etc? my pings are not bad and my response time through ssh/vnc is SLOW | 03:48 |
| viper233 | Glam : so when you type fdisk /dev/sda in the terminal the next line says file not found? or Unable to open /dev/sda | 03:48 |
| juano_1 | wilo_: if all goes well, then just try to install what you need | 03:49 |
| Rufus_ | anyone? | 03:49 |
| Glam | viper233: no such file or directory | 03:49 |
| Glam | viper233: does it make a difference if there is a space after fdisk and /? | 03:50 |
| juano_1 | arooni-mobile: pastebin sudo ifconfig | 03:50 |
| wilo_ | juano_1, thankyou VERY much | 03:50 |
| underdaw1 | is there a bash command to see memory usage, cpu usage etc? my pings are not bad and my response time through ssh/vnc is SLOW | 03:50 |
| _juan | Rufus_ just hit ctrl+alt+f1 to go back hit ctrl+alt+f7 | 03:50 |
| juano_1 | wilo_: did that work ? | 03:50 |
| wilo_ | it worked, thankyou soo much juano_1 much appreciated, have a great christmas | 03:50 |
| viper233 | Glam : yes, you will most definitely need a space between fdisk and /dev/sda | 03:50 |
| juano_1 | wilo_: hehe great :) have a great x-mas yourself! | 03:50 |
| wilo_ | juano_1 it allowed me to select amarok, and its downloading now | 03:51 |
| jxxt | viper233, What if he does not have an ide disc?? | 03:51 |
| arooni-mobile | juano_1, i really appreciate the offer.. but i only have one ethernet cable, and i'm not sure i'd do an accurate typing job transposing that output to my one pc that does have internet access ;( | 03:51 |
| Glam | viper233: then it says unable to open /dev/sda | 03:51 |
| Rufus_ | _juan: what do i type in there? | 03:51 |
| juano_1 | wilo_: great, yea it was a dependencies problem, it happens :P | 03:51 |
| viper233 | Glam: cool, that means you don't have /dev/sda , try /dev/hda instead... fdisk /dev/hda remember the spaces.. | 03:52 |
| _juan | nothing, Rufus_ that will get you out of the hraphical interface and will show you what version you have | 03:52 |
| qinjuehang | Glam: try ls /dev and see what u get | 03:52 |
| viper233 | jxxt : we don't know what kind of disk Glam has... ;) | 03:52 |
| juano_1 | arooni-mobile: you sure your doing sudo dhclient ethX where X is the wired one right ? | 03:53 |
| qinjuehang | viper233:ask him to open his box :D | 03:53 |
| jxxt | viper233, That is not helpful :( | 03:53 |
| Glam | viper233: you will not be able to write the partition table | 03:53 |
| Glam | and then a whole lot of other stuff after than | 03:53 |
| Glam | *that | 03:53 |
| viper233 | Glam : cool Everyone he has /dev/hda!!!!!!!!! | 03:54 |
| viper233 | sorry.. she/he ... | 03:54 |
| qinjuehang | :O | 03:54 |
| Rufus_ | isnt there something to type in terminal to get all kinds of sytem info? | 03:54 |
| Glam | i guess that's good news? | 03:54 |
| J_Man | what kind of info you want Rufus? | 03:54 |
| qinjuehang | Glam:what prog are u using to write partitions? | 03:54 |
| viper233 | Glam : at the terminal type this sudo fdisk /dev/hda | 03:54 |
| Rufus_ | j_man, ubuntu version, all that stuff | 03:54 |
| renyi | D | 03:54 |
| snow_ | please stop ubuntu | 03:54 |

| doctormo | my usplash is always black, how can i get usplash to appear? | 03:57 |
| viper233 | Glam : there should be a partition with an '*' next to it under the boot heading | 03:57 |
| Fink | merry xmas | 03:57 |
| qinjuehang | doctormo: try refreshing it | 03:57 |
| sn00zer | did something happen to their site? i'm getting an internal server error 500 | 03:57 |
| doctormo | qinjuehang: explain | 03:57 |
| qinjuehang | doctormo: Let me try to remember the command | 03:58 |
| Glam | viper233: i don't understand | 03:58 |
| mrdinkles | using gutsy, and attempting to install bcmwlf with windows wireless drivers-- Says unable to see if hardware is present? any ideas | 03:58 |
| underdaw1 | is there a bash command to see memory usage, cpu usage etc? my pings are not bad and my response time through ssh/vnc is SLOW | 03:58 |
| khaotik | what it is | 03:58 |
| sn00zer | my connection is alittle sluggish and i was wondering if its the site since its internal server error, or something wrong on my end | 03:58 |
| qinjuehang | underdaw: try "top" | 03:59 |
| dthacker | underdaw1: top | 03:59 |
| _juan | sn00zer, im also getting the same error | 03:59 |
| Mr_Sonoma | if i wanted to format a disk into NTFS format what command would i use? | 03:59 |
| doctormo | dthacker: hey there | 03:59 |
| viper233 | Glam : so you've just typed sudo fdisk /dev/hda . You are now in the fdisk program, type p and then press enter, you will get a list of your partitions and one of them should have an '*' next to it | 03:59 |
| sn00zer | ok, thanks for checking | 03:59 |
| dthacker | doctormo: hi doc! | 03:59 |
| qinjuehang | doctormo: try "sudo dpkg-reconfigure linux-image-`uname -r`" i guess | 03:59 |
| qinjuehang | might take half a min | 04:00 |
| mrdinkles | using gutsy, and attempting to install bcmwlf with windows wireless drivers-- Says unable to see if hardware is present? any ideas | 04:00 |
| Glam | viper233: nope i don't have anything except you may change... | 04:01 |
| Mr_Sonoma | !patience | mrdinkles | 04:01 |
| ubotu | mrdinkles: The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines | 04:01 |
| viper233 | Glam : can you give us a screen shot? | 04:01 |
| Glam | sure | 04:01 |
| Niko-formerlyEag | how come when I did an upgrade in ubuntu 7.10 in update manager my wireless disappeared all together? | 04:01 |
| scguy318 | mrdinkles: what does ndiswrapper -l say? | 04:01 |
| Niko-formerlyEag | it doesn't even seem to recognize my wireless card anymore | 04:02 |
| qinjuehang | Niko-formerlyEag: DId u check if u accidentally uninstalled the package? | 04:02 |
| Niko-formerlyEag | don't think so | 04:02 |
| _juan | Rufus_ you still there? | 04:02 |
| Niko-formerlyEag | I don't even know the package name | 04:02 |
| Pulshion | hows anyone know how to uninstall compiled mplayer. In synaptic i completely removed it but it still works | 04:02 |
| Niko-formerlyEag | it worked immediately when I install 7.10 | 04:02 |
| viper233 | Glam : tell me where you post it.. | 04:02 |
| Niko-formerlyEag | I really don't have hours to try to figure it out because I have to leave tomorrow morning and won't be able to fix it | 04:03 |
| qinjuehang | Niko-formerlyEag: do u have the windows ddriver for it? | 04:03 |
| Glam | viper233: http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k67/QueenHawkeye/Screenshot-1.png | 04:03 |
| Niko-formerlyEag | I'm trying to setup linux for my parents | 04:03 |
| Niko-formerlyEag | linux provides a driver for it | 04:03 |
| Niko-formerlyEag | I don't need to use the windows driver | 04:03 |
| mrdinkles | scguy318: Warning-- ignoring line... with black-- bcmlwf5 installed- | 04:03 |
| Niko-formerlyEag | I just don't understand why an upgrade would break it completely | 04:03 |
| Pulshion | hows anyone know how to uninstall compiled mplayer. In synaptic i completely removed it but it still works | 04:03 |
| umer | i need help with bluetooth, i cant seem to browse my phone, it says "couldnt display obex" and to "check if service is available" any ideas? | 04:03 |
| Niko-formerlyEag | and it'd be nice to have an easy way to fix it without spending 2 hours recompiling the kernel | 04:03 |
| soldats | Pulshion, sudo apt-get remove mplayer | 04:04 |
| mrdinkles | scguy318: how can i take off the black list-- that might be causing problems-- its shows driver installed but then a ignoring line 27 | 04:04 |
| kyu_flux | back in my day, we recompiled the kernel every other week | 04:04 |
| qinjuehang | oh and try apt-get install network-manager network-manager-gnome network-admin wireless-tools | 04:04 |
| viper233 | Glam : see http://pastebin.com/d2a4dca31 for what I have typed | 04:04 |
| kyu_flux | of course i'm lazy now, and I was never really a heavy linux user in the first place, but, eh... | 04:04 |
| Pulshion | soldats. it doesnt exist | 04:04 |
| Aaron_Mason | Hey all, is anybody with an SiS900 embedded controller having trouble with TCP traffic taking ages to connect? | 04:04 |
| _juan | Pulshion didi you compile it yourself? | 04:05 |
| Aaron_Mason | and ubuntu 7.10 | 04:05 |
| Hot_Girl | hello everyone | 04:05 |
| Pulshion | _juan yes | 04:05 |
| Aaron_Mason | hi | 04:05 |
| Hot_Girl | i need an FTP program for Ubuntu please | 04:05 |
| qinjuehang | Niko-formerlyEag: try apt-get install network-manager network-manager-gnome network-admin wireless-tools | 04:05 |
| Hot_Girl | i need an FTP program for Ubuntu please | 04:05 |
| Niko-formerlyEag | qinjuehang, those are already installed | 04:05 |
| Niko-formerlyEag | I just checked | 04:05 |
| soldats | Pulshion, hmm so if it was uninstalled i wonder why it still works | 04:05 |
| scguy318 | mrdinkles: black list? | 04:05 |
| _juan | Pulshion, hang on a bit | 04:05 |
| jxxt | glam, it is on /dev/hda3 | 04:05 |
| Pulshion | soldats, cause i compiled it myself | 04:06 |
| Niko-formerlyEag | and I can't download anything without phyiscally moving the computer into a different room...something i don't have time for | 04:06 |
| Niko-formerlyEag | it looks like I'll have to leave this computer inoperative for my parents until I come back here in 2 years | 04:06 |
| soldats | Pulshion, delete the dir where its installed, the README.txt should say how to uninstall it | 04:06 |
| qinjuehang | Niko-formerlyEag try sudo netowrk-admin in the Terminal | 04:06 |
| mrdinkles | scguy318: how can i show you what it says without posting it on here | 04:06 |
| qinjuehang | sudo network-admin | 04:06 |
| scguy318 | !pastebin | mrdinkles | 04:07 |
| ubotu | mrdinkles: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic) | 04:07 |
| mrdinkles | scguy318: using that bot to tell me doesnt help, i dont know what that is | 04:07 |
| Pulshion | soldats if i could find the directory | 04:07 |
| soldats | ~/.mplayer | 04:07 |
| Hot_Girl | hello everyone | 04:07 |
| Niko-formerlyEag | qinjuehang, did...it doesn't list my wireless connection anymore...just modem and wired | 04:07 |
| soldats | hello | 04:07 |
| Niko-formerlyEag | qinjuehang, wireless disappeared when I ran update manager and installed all the updates...I'm guessing it's because of a kernel update | 04:07 |
| Glam | viper233: i don't have the boot part, instead of boot i have flag and a u next to hda2 | 04:07 |
| viper233 | Glam: thanks... doesn't look like you have any partitions on that drive.. | 04:07 |
| _juan | can you sudo make remove mplayer? | 04:07 |
| Soskel | can someone please verify? https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+mirror/webtechmedia.net-release | 04:07 |
| Pulshion | soldats, yea i deleted that directory | 04:07 |
| qinjuehang | Niko-formerlyEag:what wireless device are u using? | 04:07 |
| Hot_Girl | i need an FTP program for Ubuntu | 04:08 |
| soldats | Pulshion, look at _juan s post | 04:08 |
| Niko-formerlyEag | qinjuehang, it's a linksys pci adapter | 04:08 |
| J_Man | try gftp | 04:08 |
| scguy318 | mrdinkles: pastebin is a place to show me your text? | 04:08 |
| Pulshion | soldats, i dont think thats where it was installed | 04:08 |
| Aaron_Mason | Hot_Girl, like WSFTP? | 04:08 |
| mrdinkles | scguy318: i posted | 04:08 |
| J_Man | probably the best gui ftp client I know of | 04:08 |
| _juan | Pulshion and then make clean | 04:08 |
| J_Man | for linux, anyway | 04:08 |
| scguy318 | mrdinkles: linky? | 04:08 |
| viper233 | Glam : show me output again... pastebin or photo bucket | 04:08 |
| Pulshion | make: *** No rule to make target `remove'. Stop. | 04:08 |
| Hot_Girl | yes Aaron_Mason, like WS_FTP | 04:08 |
| mrdinkles | scguy318: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49567/ | 04:08 |
| qinjuehang | Niko-formerlyEag: It used to work? | 04:09 |
| jxxt | mrdinkles, I know what you are talking about because it happened to me. I googled a lot and found a way to whitelist the bcm but it still did not work for me | 04:09 |
| Niko-formerlyEag | qinjuehang, when I first installed ubuntu 7.10 this afternoon, wireless worked fine | 04:09 |
| scguy318 | mrdinkles: ty, gimme a sec | 04:09 |
| Niko-formerlyEag | qinjuehang, I ran update manager afterwards to install all the updates, and rebooted and wireless was gone | 04:09 |
| J_Man | bcm driver is somewhat flaky - you have to get the right firmware | 04:09 |
| Glam | viper233: http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k67/QueenHawkeye/Screenshot-2.png | 04:09 |
| J_Man | and it still has a transmit power problem with some broadcom chipsets | 04:09 |
| _juan | Pulshion, go to the mplayer source directoery | 04:09 |
| Niko-formerlyEag | qinjuehang, I'm guessing some idiot in ubuntu forgot to put thte module in the newest kernel | 04:09 |
| Aaron_Mason | argh.. I'm trying to connect to port 21 of my laptop from my machine which is connected directly to the switch and it won't connect :/ | 04:10 |
| J_Man | I always drop it in favor of using ndiswrapper | 04:10 |
| Pulshion | _juan do u know where its at | 04:10 |
| mikeaz | :-( my newly installed ubuntu is giving me hell | 04:10 |
| qinjuehang | Niko-formerlyEag: Let me see...did you load your wireless module? | 04:10 |
| scguy318 | mrdinkles: pastebin your /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist | 04:10 |
| jxxt | mrdinkles, There is some fairly extensive stuff on this subject in Ubuntu forums... | 04:10 |
| scguy318 | mrdinkles: you probably typoed something in there | 04:10 |
| Niko-formerlyEag | qinjuehang, no...that's what I'm getting ready to do right now once I find it | 04:10 |
| _juan | Pulshion, where did you untar the source file? | 04:11 |
| Pulshion | home | 04:11 |
| wilo_ | juano_1, do you have time for another quick question? | 04:12 |
| _juan | Pulshion, then that's where it's at | 04:12 |
| _juan | Pulshion, did you find it? | 04:13 |
| Niko-formerlyEag | qinjuehang, for some reason the device isn't even listed in lspci | 04:13 |
| qinjuehang | Niko-formerlyEag: What is the model of your device | 04:13 |
| Niko-formerlyEag | I'm thinking maybe it's not seated all the way in the pci slot for some reason | 04:13 |
| Pulshion | _juan no, there is only .mplayer, but its probably a left over from when i uninstalled using synaptic | 04:14 |
| qinjuehang | Niko-formerlyEag: several linysys cards are blacklisted | 04:14 |
| Pulshion | and i do the command u gave me it gives the same output | 04:14 |
| scguy318 | mrdinkles: Texas, eh? happens to be where I am too :) | 04:14 |
| scguy318 | mrdinkles: any questions? | 04:14 |
| _juan | Pulshion type: whereis mplayer or which mplayer | 04:14 |
| soldats | in a terminal^^ | 04:15 |
| Pulshion | mplayer: /etc/mplayer /usr/local/bin/mplayer /usr/local/etc/mplayer /usr/share/mplayer | 04:15 |
| qinjuehang | Niko-formerlyEag: Whats your wireless care's model number? | 04:15 |
| Fezzler | I ahve an old DOS computer connected to serial port COM1 on my Ubuntu PC (ttyS0), I want to send type to my UB PC, what program can capture info incoming from ttyS0 (Com1)? | 04:16 |
| viper233 | Glam : Well that could be your problem regarding the error 17 you get when trying to boot linux. No bootable partition... | 04:16 |
| squarebracket | is there a way to ping a specific computer behind a router? | 04:16 |
| _juan | Pulshion, ir order to use the make remoe command you have to be in the source folder | 04:16 |
| Niko-formerlyEag | qinjuehang, WMP54G | 04:16 |
| viper233 | Glam : I don't know what the u flag means, I'll look it up.. | 04:16 |
| Niko-formerlyEag | qinjuehang, I just opened the computer and it looks like my dad pulled it out of it's slot on accident...so it should work now | 04:16 |
| Glam | viper233: ok, is there any possible way to fix it? | 04:16 |
| Pulshion | which one out of 4? | 04:16 |
| Niko-formerlyEag | qinjuehang, thanks for your help | 04:16 |
| PSPJunkie | Does anyone own a "My Book" external hdd? | 04:17 |
| _juan | Pulshion, did you delete it? none of them | 04:17 |
| scguy318 | PSPJunkie: I know someone who does | 04:17 |
| viper233 | Glam : re install??? did you have another OS on that disk? | 04:17 |
| Pulshion | no, then why does it start and play movies lol | 04:17 |
| PSPJunkie | Is it possible to partition it and put an OS on it? | 04:17 |
| === _max is now known as max |
| scguy318 | PSPJunkie: yes, its just like any old external HDD | 04:17 |
| PSPJunkie | Cool, thanks | 04:17 |
| qinjuehang | Niko-formerlyEag: :D Your wireless USED to be blacklisted, in fact | 04:17 |
| _juan | look in your home directory for a folder named mplayer | 04:18 |
| _juan | Rufus, that has the make remove parameters | 04:18 |
| Pulshion | _juan nothing is there | 04:18 |
| _juan | then look for it in your trash folder | 04:19 |
| mrdinkles | scguy318: had to go to the restroom-- okay, checking on the blacklist | 04:19 |
| Glam | viper233: yeah i had it dual booting vista | 04:19 |
| viper233 | Glam : re install is probably the easiest option for you.. it is possible to being things back.. you would want to create a boot partition, install the kernel image, grub again on the installed system, I would do that by chrooting into the install and going at it from there... then re installing grub.. kinda easier to re install | 04:20 |
