| olli | te_ the cards in that list are not supported anymore and you need the legacy driver | 00:00 |

| etjhnet | ompaul: :) | 00:00 |
|---|
| demonspork | butcherbird, I have another Ubuntu partition, the one I am currently in | 00:00 |
|---|
| etjhnet | You get a lot of people suggesting that for unhelpful reasons? | 00:00 |
|---|
| Shpook | Last question: Would I be okay installing Feisty then upgrading to Gutsy, or is it better to download Gutsy and install? | 00:00 |
|---|
| demonspork | butcherbird, and I have already fsck'd it. is there any way to get fsck to do a more thorough check, because it didn't find anything on the first go around | 00:01 |
|---|
| gluonman | Shpook, just downloading gutsy is less work, but either way is fine. | 00:01 |
|---|
| aidy | hi | 00:01 |
|---|
| te_ | olli: Ok, I'm downloading it now. Tnx | 00:01 |
|---|
| aidy | i've got a problem | 00:01 |
|---|
| etjhnet | How do you get ubuntu's floppy disk handling to autodismount upon physical eject? I want ejecting the disk in hardware to dismount the floppy | 00:01 |
|---|
| te_ | Just had to convince myself it was the right one. | 00:01 |
|---|
| aidy | sometimes when i close a tab with playing flash video in epiphany, the whole x server crashes | 00:02 |
|---|
| te_ | olli: Kinda thick headed. (previous slackware user here) | 00:02 |
|---|
| olli | te_ HTH and thanks a lot for your assistance !!! I would have never found that mistiake | 00:02 |
|---|
| Shpook | Gluonman: Thank you. I'm sort of limited on time, and I have a Feisty CD laying around. Thanks again! | 00:02 |
|---|
| gluonman | Shpook, no prob. | 00:02 |

| jeff__ | can someone help me hear sound through this laptop? | 00:03 |
|---|
| etjhnet | no, they have to help me with my floppy issues first | 00:03 |
|---|
| butcherbird | !sound | jeff__ | 00:03 |
|---|
| ubotu | jeff__: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 00:04 |
|---|
| te_ | olli: Yea, well, grub uses hd0 for hda and same with partition numbers. So (hd0,0)=hda1 and it follows that (hd0,7)=hda6 | 00:04 |
|---|
| ompaul | etjhnet, not the way gnu/linux works it would be nice - the only way it works is if you use mtools but once you mount it you got to umount it | 00:05 |
|---|
| timewriter | anyone can tell me how to add another os on grub ? | 00:05 |
|---|
| te_ | Ok, thanks all, gotta run. | 00:05 |
|---|
| butcherbird | gksu gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst is the manual way | 00:05 |
|---|
| te_ | olli: Tnx agn | 00:05 |
|---|
| butcherbird | timewriter: ^ | 00:05 |
|---|
| xnor | timewriter: chain loading? | 00:05 |
|---|
| johnficca | how do I get ndiswrapper to load on boot? | 00:05 |
|---|
| timewriter | i installed another os on a different HDD | 00:05 |
|---|
| scguy318 | johnficca: add ndiswrapper to your /etc/modules | 00:05 |
|---|
| olli | te_: no problem. thank you! | 00:05 |
|---|
| scguy318 | johnficca: gksudo gedit /etc/modules to open it up | 00:05 |
|---|
| timewriter | and i want to be able to choose it too when boot loads | 00:05 |
|---|
| torrent3 | Hi, can someone help me install the udf 2.5 filesystem patch for Gutsy? | 00:05 |
|---|
| johnficca | scguy318: thanks | 00:06 |
|---|
| sharyari | hello | 00:06 |
|---|
| etjhnet | ompaul: What do you mean? | 00:06 |
|---|
| jeff__ | ubotu, butcherbird. thanks ALSA was selected.. I will keep reading | 00:07 |
|---|
| timewriter | what if i boot ubuntu from cd , and reinstall grub ? | 00:07 |
|---|
| ompaul | etjhnet, it ain't going to be automagic in any way I have ever used gnu/linux - you can use a thing called mtools to do it without mounting | 00:07 |
|---|
| timewriter | it will work ? | 00:07 |
|---|
| etjhnet | what about playing with fstab? | 00:07 |
|---|
| ompaul | etjhnet, well it mounts it but ... | 00:07 |
|---|
| timewriter | im too lame for that | 00:07 |
|---|
| johnficca | ok another problem that I am having is when I boot, it won't boot tell I press ctrl + alt + f1 | 00:07 |
|---|
| timewriter | i might damage everything | 00:07 |
|---|
| Elly | I'm having an odd error when using my DVD drive. Whenever I try to play a DVD with mplayer, it hangs for a while, then spits out "a52: CRC check failed!" many times. Looking at dmesg while trying to play a DVD reveals this: "[ 1231.840000] end_request: I/O error, dev sr0, sector 6031144" (many times, with different sector numbers each time) | 00:07 |
|---|
| larsemil | is it possible to downgrade wine from 0.9.46 to 0.9.45 or do i have to compile it then? | 00:07 |
|---|
| timewriter | Elly , the dvd is scratched | 00:08 |
|---|
| ompaul | etjhnet, that is only for what you mount and how you mount it - it has no extended functionality like you are looking for | 00:08 |
|---|
| sparr | installing flashplugin-nonfree with a downloaded copy of the tarball (v115), it installs v48 (the version it would download if i let it). whats up with that? | 00:08 |
|---|
| Elly | timewriter: no it's not; it plays perfectly in a DVD player and another machine | 00:08 |
|---|
| EgonStork | why does Ubuntu block the kernel bootup messages with a graphical splash screen ? What happens if I compile a new kernel and it fails and then I can't see where or how exactly it fails because of the graphical splash screen ? | 00:08 |
|---|
| larsemil | Elly: or could be copy proteted - then it did not run in my ubuntu | 00:08 |
|---|
| johnficca | it just sits with a black screen tell I press ctrl + Alt + f1 | 00:08 |
|---|
| timewriter | hm | 00:08 |
|---|
| timewriter | then its a protection i guess | 00:08 |
|---|
| xnor | Elly: install libdvdcss2 | 00:08 |
|---|
| scguy318 | Elly: probably because the other DVD player ignores the error | 00:08 |
|---|
| Elly | xnor: I'll try that | 00:08 |
|---|
| scguy318 | !dvd | Elly | 00:08 |

| johnficca | I am using ubuntu gutsy if anyone would like to know | 00:09 |
|---|
| EgonStork | !Medibuntu | 00:09 |
|---|
| ubotu | medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org | 00:09 |

| xnor | how does gutsy include it by default then? | 00:09 |
|---|
| xnor | if it's for legal reasons | 00:09 |

| timewriter | stupid hdd makes a weird noise | 00:10 |

|---|
| timewriter | i have 4 | 00:11 |

| timewriter | which ione is ? | 00:11 |
|---|
| scguy318 | xnor: it doesn't include libdvdcss2 by default | 00:11 |

| torrent3 | Will a patch for kernel 2.6.16 for for Gutsy? | 00:11 |

|---|
| Elly | thank you all! | 00:11 |

| scguy318 | xnor: perhaps you were thinking libdvdread3? | 00:11 |

| Cereal | Is there a way to kill a process through either a shellscript or the terminal? | 00:11 |

|---|
| rsk | torrent3: most likely not | 00:12 |
|---|
| jmg | is it possible to run the livecd on a headless box using vnc? | 00:12 |
|---|
| Cereal | Thanks guys :D | 00:12 |
|---|
| timewriter | as in certain cults , its possible to kill a daemon , if you know its tru name :) | 00:12 |
|---|
| jarlod | if you don't have the pid, pkill <process name> | 00:12 |
|---|
| wols_ | jmg: possible yes, but I doubt you can use the livecd as downloaded from ubuntu.com | 00:12 |
|---|
| Cereal | scguy318: so it would be "kill PID firefox-bin"? | 00:12 |
|---|
| xnor | scguy318: hmm, was looking at a gutsy install where I just checkinstalled it or something | 00:12 |
|---|
| johnficca | I get no boot screen when I boot and nothing will happen until I press ctrl + alt + f1, then it will start the boot in text mode then all is ok...is there a way to fix this? | 00:12 |
|---|
| KnickLighter | Can anyone help me with my VPN server? | 00:12 |

| xnor | scguy318: does libdvdread3 work properly with vlc? | 00:13 |

| jarlod | pkill firefox | 00:13 |

| KnickLighter | I pasted my question 2 times | 00:13 |
|---|
| KnickLighter | but here it goes again; | 00:13 |
|---|
| KnickLighter | Hi; I'm currently having problems with my VPN server. It allows me to connect and I can connect to the server itself inside the VPN, but it won't let me connect outside the box, as example google.com.. Anyone knows what could be the problem? Some config setting or firewall? | 00:13 |

| torrent3 | rsk: What about for 2.6.22-rc4? | 00:13 |
|---|
| rsk | torrent3: that's about the same | 00:13 |
|---|
| torrent3 | :( | 00:14 |
|---|
| Cereal | Hmm "kill pid firefox-bin" doesn't seem to kill the process. Am I doing something wrong? | 00:14 |
|---|
| rsk | torrent3: you will most likely be required to redo the patch | 00:14 |
|---|
| lukigno | ciao | 00:14 |
|---|
| rsk | torrent3: what is the patch? | 00:14 |
|---|
| bruenig | killall firefox-bin | 00:14 |
|---|
| scguy318 | Cereal: kill takes a PID | 00:14 |
|---|
| torrent3 | rsk: UDF 2.5 | 00:14 |
|---|
| xnor | Cereal: "kill PID" where pid is of firefox-bin | 00:14 |
|---|
| lukigno | !list | 00:14 |

| ubotu | I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots | 00:14 |
|---|
| linxeh | Cereal: substitute PID for the process id. use pkill if you dont know it | 00:14 |
|---|
| xnor | Cereal: or just killall firefox-bin | 00:14 |
|---|
| rsk | torrent3: dont know what that is .. | 00:14 |
|---|
| Cereal | Bruenig: Thanks :) | 00:14 |
|---|
| butcherbird | Cereal: or pkill firefox-bin | 00:14 |

| xnor | linxeh: who doesn't who is running FF? | 00:15 |

| rsk | ok i would chek that out | 00:15 |
|---|
| rsk | before trying to patch | 00:15 |

|---|
| linxeh | xnor: heh good point :) | 00:15 |
|---|
| rsk | torrent3: easist is to download latest from git and try make menuconfig and see if it's there | 00:16 |
|---|
| torrent3 | rsk: git? | 00:16 |
|---|
| Cereal | What is it that I have to write in order to run a gedit file as a "program"? Isn't it chmod -x? or something like that? | 00:16 |
|---|
| rsk | torrent3: bah. you don't know what git is? | 00:16 |
|---|
| rsk | torrent3: chek wikipedia or something | 00:16 |
|---|
| torrent3 | Cereal: chmod +x <filename> | 00:16 |
|---|
| Cereal | torrent3: Thanks :D | 00:16 |
|---|
| etjhnet | well right now, if you go to "Computer" and click on floppy, it mounts it but navigates to the root dir which confuses the user | 00:17 |
|---|
| torrent3 | rsk: OKay, I see. So Ubuntu comes with git? | 00:18 |
|---|
| johnficca | what is the name of the program that helps you change some of the boot options like screen size and boot theme? | 00:18 |
|---|
| rsk | yes if you install it | 00:18 |
|---|
| johnficca | is it like startup | 00:18 |
|---|
| johnficca | or | 00:18 |
|---|
| johnficca | bootup | 00:18 |
|---|
| etjhnet | Can it at least automatically go to the floppy dir it creates? | 00:18 |
|---|
| Cereal | Okay, so I wrote my "script" (I think it's called a shellscript or something) containing the line: killall firefox-bin. I have chmod -x'et it. But now I want it to lie on my taskbar so I can just click it and it kills firefox. How do I do that? :) | 00:18 |
|---|
| johnficca | startupmanager thats it | 00:19 |
|---|
| sakuramboo | okay, so i rebuilt both libgpod and amarok and my ipod still doesnt show the songs i imported, am i missing something? | 00:19 |
|---|
| {Nathan} | I mount my external HD with user and rw in fstab and it works fine, but after a little bit it suddenly switches the whole thing to read-only (for me and if I am root). Any ideas why it does this? | 00:19 |
|---|
| scguy318 | Cereal: create a launcher that does killall firefox-bin | 00:19 |
|---|
| Cereal | scguy318: How do I do that? :) | 00:20 |
|---|
| torrent3 | rsk: Which package do I install to get git? There're many of them listed | 00:20 |
|---|
| rsk | git core i think | 00:20 |
|---|
| ketrox | torrent3, cogito too i think | 00:20 |
|---|
| scguy318 | Cereal: right click, Add to Panel, then Custom Application Launcher | 00:20 |
|---|
| Cereal | scguy318: Thanks a lot :) | 00:21 |
|---|
| torrent3 | which is better> cogito or git-core/ | 00:21 |

| ubotu | jeff__: The Flash plugin installation is currently broken. This is due to Adobe changing the tar file that the package downloads. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=636397 if you need to fix this immediately, but it's recommended to wait for an official fix. | 00:23 |

| sYn_0n3 | yes sir | 00:31 |
|---|
| glycerine | invisi Thanks. I have read that, but won't that destroy the dd'd data? | 00:31 |
|---|
| jamescarr | stan-k, nope | 00:31 |

| Jangari | ah | 00:32 |

| magick211 | available networks show up but im unable to connect | 00:32 |

| invisi | glycerine, pvcreate overwrites a megabyte or something in the beginning of the disk. I'm not quite sure if it's that much however. | 00:32 |
|---|
| Jangari | it's the entire hard disk? no partitions? | 00:32 |
|---|
| sYn_0n3 | entire disk no partitions | 00:32 |
|---|
| nickrud | invisi, http://www.howtoforge.com/local_debian_ubuntu_mirror , also look into apt-got , debpartial-mirror, apt-proxy | 00:32 |
|---|
| invisi | glycerine, it does not wipe any data on the disk, except for some few blocks. man pvcreate will probably tell you how much it overwrites. | 00:32 |
|---|
| Jangari | hmm, then I don't know about that, it should have been easy enough to load using bios instead of grub | 00:33 |
|---|
| invisi | nickrud, that looks more like it (from the URL) - I'll look into it. Thanks! | 00:33 |

|---|
| Jangari | yeah, i know, but instead of (sdb,0) perhaps it should be (hd0) | 00:35 |
|---|
| zetheroo | anyone? | 00:35 |
|---|
| sYn_0n3 | like this root (hd0,0)? | 00:35 |

|---|
| pgjensen | there ya go | 00:36 |
|---|
| pgjensen | thx | 00:36 |
|---|
| Jangari | but if there are no partitions, it should probably be (hd0), anyone agree? | 00:36 |

| jeff__ | man... I really like linux when its all done... but it is a pain to get going | 00:38 |
|---|
| stan-k | jamescarr: for example, in CompizConfig Settings Manager in Rotate Cube (i use cube) under Actions tab - rotate left, rotate right... | 00:38 |
|---|
| jeff__ | sometimes. | 00:38 |
|---|
| nickrud | te_, if you're doing serious video or audio editing, or number crunching (with software that takes advantage of 64 bits) yes,otherwise no real reason | 00:38 |
|---|
| Jangari | anyone have any idea why a single machine runs xp at lightning speed, speeds i've never witnessed on any windows installation ever, while gutsy on the same machine is running at a snail's pace? | 00:38 |

|---|
| bruenig | Jangari, ubuntu is known to run a bit sluggishly | 00:39 |
|---|
| Jangari | udma, eh? | 00:39 |
|---|
| pgjensen | hdparm and make sure it's enabled | 00:39 |
|---|
| jamescarr | stan-k, there is no actions tab (I use cube too) | 00:39 |
|---|
| Jangari | but bruenig, i've been running ubuntu on several machines, and this is the fastest machine on paper, | 00:39 |
|---|
| nickrud | torrent3, you probably won't get much support here for custom kernels | 00:39 |
|---|
| te_ | nickrud: Ok, won't bother with it. Thanks. | 00:39 |
|---|
| Jangari | all other machines run ubuntu without any performance problems, | 00:39 |
|---|
| Jangari | is that the command, pgjensen? hdparm? | 00:40 |

| demonspork | whenever I select my Ubuntu Gutsy from the GRUB menu it goes to a screen saying that it 'cannot mount the selected partition.' I have run fsck on the partition and it found no errors. What can I do? it happened after a power outage. | 00:40 |
|---|
| stan-k | jamescarr: alright... | 00:40 |
|---|
| nickrud | torrent3, you're patching the kernel, no? | 00:41 |
|---|
| torrent3 | for gutsy kernel | 00:41 |
|---|
| torrent3 | nickrud yeah | 00:41 |
|---|
| stan-k | jamescarr: i think you need to install CompizConfig Settings manager then | 00:41 |
|---|
| Jangari | is there a forum on error 17? | 00:41 |

| glycerine | demonspork UUID changed? | 00:41 |

| torrent3 | if you dont wanna help me patch, thats fine | 00:43 |
|---|
| Jangari | oh, another thing, how do i set up an automount for a hdd partition? | 00:43 |
|---|
| Jangari | ntfs | 00:43 |
|---|
| glycerine | te_ a guess only :) that plus the headers for your kernel. Also search synaptic for libc if all else fails :) | 00:43 |
|---|
| ipsemet | i keep getting hda: drive not ready for command in dmesg, what does this mean | 00:43 |
|---|
| oddalot | when i double click on a title bar my windows don't maximize or minimize...it just slides up like a projector screen kinda (or a mac window) anyone know where this option is to change it? | 00:43 |
|---|
| EgonStork | Jangari: edit /etc/fstab I guess | 00:43 |
|---|
| glycerine | Jangari put it in your fstab | 00:44 |
|---|
| Jangari | does fstab need sudo? | 00:44 |
|---|
| nickrud | oddalot, system-prefs-windows | 00:44 |
|---|
| glycerine | jangari yep | 00:44 |
|---|
| pgjensen | oddalot: it will be in the settings for gnome or kde or whatever window manager you use | 00:44 |
|---|
| jamescarr | stan-k, no results :( | 00:44 |
|---|
| stan-k | jamescarr: still no Actions tab? | 00:44 |
|---|
| Jangari | so entering the line sudo mount ntfs.... into fstab should do it? | 00:44 |

| demonspork | glycerine, how do I check if that is the case? | 00:46 |
|---|
| pgjensen | storage, performance doesn't matter | 00:46 |
|---|
| jamescarr | weird though.. there was no action tab | 00:46 |
|---|
| pgjensen | stability matters | 00:46 |

|---|
| Zombie | ipsemet: That looks like a failing Hard drive. | 00:47 |
|---|
| Funkydan5 | They say linux but I am not, plus there is no Dell IRC | 00:47 |
|---|
| glycerine | demonspork happened to me in fstab, check what's there vs what's in ls /dev/disk/by-uuid | 00:47 |
|---|
| pgjensen | oddalot: did you hit apply? | 00:47 |
|---|
| oddalot | yes | 00:47 |
|---|
| pgjensen | try and restart x too | 00:47 |
|---|
| oddalot | well...there is no apply | 00:47 |
|---|
| pgjensen | if that doesn't work it should be on the forums | 00:47 |
|---|
| oddalot | and it was set to maximize by default | 00:47 |
|---|
| glycerine | demonspork if that's still congruent, check what's in the menu..lst | 00:47 |
|---|
| oddalot | it says titlebar action | 00:48 |
|---|
| ipsemet | i thought so, is it posssible that a corrupted harddrive can somehow damage another harddrive | 00:48 |

| pppoe_dude | hi any one here got a Creative Zen working under gutsy? | 00:59 |
|---|
| demonspork | glycerine, yes, but then I reinstalled grub. The only factor that changed is that one of my 2 ubuntu partitions fails to boot with the aformentioned error, failed to mount selected partition | 01:00 |

| jago | my screen is all wacked out, my mouse pointer can go farther than it should(off the screen) and I can't see my bottom panel | 01:00 |

| oddalot | the entire os...or just the boot screen is garbled? | 01:05 |
|---|
| ompaul | Thresher, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -- if you can't get that right then you need to use the live CD and copy its /etc/X11/xorg.conf to the hard drive | 01:05 |
|---|
| dxdemetriou | pppoe_dude, I have this problem also in wine | 01:05 |
|---|
| ricardo | yeah, seems like i cant change my resolution | 01:05 |
|---|
| Thresher | funny enough oddalot the ubuntu logo screen comes up fine but when the log in comes it is garbled. I have been fighting with gutsy to correctly allow me 1280x1024 on this dell 1907fp. | 01:06 |
|---|
| glycerine | Jangari you see the fstab link ubotu did? basically /dev/sda3 /mountpoint options | 01:06 |
|---|
| glycerine | !fstab | Jangari | 01:06 |
|---|
| ubotu | Jangari: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions | 01:06 |

| oddalot | thx~ | 01:07 |
|---|
| Thresher | that is great instruction ompaul | 01:07 |
|---|
| zafer | anybody now, what`s gutsy`s install password? gnome login page ask me username and password, but i dont install anything, and i`ve not a password or username | 01:08 |
|---|
| heckler0071 | is there a keyboard command or a way to make a keyboard command to switch between workspaces? | 01:08 |
|---|
| glycerine | zafer you specified it when you installed the os | 01:08 |
|---|
| glycerine | zafer er someone else specified it when they installed it, you'll have to ask them | 01:08 |
|---|
| dxdemetriou | that I'm trying to do is to change the LANG and LC_TYPE for gnome, not only for terminal | 01:08 |
|---|
| ompaul | Thresher, you sorted | 01:08 |
|---|
| ompaul | ? | 01:09 |
|---|
| Thresher | I am | 01:09 |
|---|
| ompaul | good | 01:09 |
|---|
| Thresher | but have more questions about this issue | 01:09 |
|---|
| oddalot | oh whoops i didn't need xorg.conf...which file has the grub boot menu list in it? | 01:09 |
|---|
| ompaul | be careful what you ask for ;-) | 01:09 |
|---|
| zafer | i dont install ubuntu | 01:09 |
|---|
| glycerine | oddalot /boot | 01:09 |
|---|
| zafer | its ubuntu`s first live boot from cd | 01:09 |
|---|
| glycerine | zafer the boot cd ought to boot straight up with no password | 01:10 |
|---|
| mavi- | then you shouldnt need to login | 01:10 |
|---|
| wols_ | oddalot: /boot/grub/menu.lst and you shouldn't need to edit that | 01:10 |
|---|
| mavi- | sure you didnt click that install-icon on the desktop? | 01:10 |
|---|
| Thresher | Gutsy finds my monitor and names it correctly but it only allows lame resolutions...others in forums have complained about it and the ATI video cards. What issue do i sort out first? The monitor or the running of ati drivers? | 01:10 |
|---|
| ompaul | zafer, there is no password just type sudo command in a terminal for terminal stuff then you do gksu for graphical commands | 01:10 |
|---|
| glycerine | Thresher lemme guess, dell laptop? | 01:10 |
|---|
| Thresher | dell 1907flat panel lcd stand alone monitor | 01:10 |
|---|
| Thresher | close though | 01:10 |
|---|
| oddalot | thresher, have you tried editing the xorg.conf? | 01:11 |

| ompaul | matthewpoer, if it is (A) faulty (B) not the right ram (C) no other answers in my list | 01:12 |

| unravel | is the ram properly seated? | 01:13 |
|---|
| matthewpoer | yes | 01:13 |
|---|
| Thresher | matthepoer - if it wont launch even to bios then you need to check compatibility of ram | 01:13 |
|---|
| matthewpoer | re-seated, re-tested 4-5 times | 01:13 |
|---|
| Pelo | Thresher, you can do it from the livecd if you need to , make sure you get the xorg.conf from the hdd and not the one from the live cd | 01:13 |

| Josspyker | Shri: broadcom | 01:49 |

| SQFreak | Dr_willis: Yes. I'm trying to get it so that Windows will not bug me for a password when I try to connect to my share. | 01:49 |
|---|
| jack-desktop | LjL: without logging off, which way? | 01:49 |
|---|
| Shri | yup | 01:49 |
|---|
| silverhawk_184 | jack-desktop: ctrl+alt+backspace | 01:49 |
|---|
| Cereal | Wols: I can remove the Repos it added from inside itself. Should I? | 01:49 |
|---|
| Dr_willis_ | Fezzler, thers some free books for ubuntu out. | 01:49 |
|---|
| jack-desktop | can you restart X without logging off? | 01:49 |

| MrPiracy2 | glycerine: i did glxinfo, but how do i get to know if it's accelerated or not? | 01:49 |
|---|
| Dr_willis_ | SQFreak, i would say check that USing Samba Book. Its proberly discussed there. | 01:49 |
|---|
| wols_ | Cereal: yes | 01:49 |
|---|
| jack-desktop | pelo: i dont want to log off ;p | 01:49 |
|---|
| Pelo | later folks | 01:49 |
|---|
| glycerine | MrPiracy2 If it says Mesa anywhere in there, it's not | 01:50 |
|---|
| Cereal | Wols: Great :) | 01:50 |
|---|
| Jangari | will # work to comment it out? | 01:50 |
|---|
| Pelo | jack-desktop, you donT' have a choice | 01:50 |
|---|
| Pelo | Jangari, yes | 01:50 |
|---|
| jack-desktop | pelo: k thanks | 01:50 |
|---|
| Shri | it says on the website that I need a patch http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/b43 | 01:50 |
|---|
| JCDENTON | hello there | 01:50 |
|---|
| MrPiracy2 | glycerine: it says "direct rendering: no (if u wanna know why ..." | 01:50 |
|---|
| Fezzler | I'm reading Linux Systems Administration, good book but examines more than Debian | 01:50 |
|---|
| wols_ | glycerine: not true. what do you think intel and ati use? | 01:50 |
|---|
| JCDENTON | !fedora | 01:50 |
|---|
| ubotu | Other !Linux distributions besides !Ubuntu include: Debian, Mepis (using !APT); RedHat, Fedora, SUSE, Mandriva (using !RPM); Gentoo, Slackware (using other packaging systems) | 01:50 |
|---|
| Dr_willis_ | Fezzler, check out https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Training for some good core info. Then work you way up to more detailed books. | 01:51 |
|---|
| wols_ | MrPiracy2: what videocard do you have exactly? and what driver do you use? | 01:51 |
|---|
| JCDENTON | !rpm | 01:51 |
|---|
| ubotu | RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous) | 01:51 |
|---|
| glycerine | wols_ but shouldn't the driver name show up? e.g. fglrx, ati? | 01:51 |
|---|
| MrPiracy2 | glycerine: like ... GLX_MESA_copy_sub_buffer ? | 01:51 |
|---|
| silverhawk_184 | can some one help; Error: Could not find 'SDL Image Library'. Try using the native package manager for Ubuntu 7.10 (apt-get) to install a package with similar name to 'sdl_image'. // i installed all of the sld packages that i found | 01:51 |
|---|
| JCDENTON | lol | 01:51 |
|---|
| Dr_willis_ | Fezzler, once you learn the core fundamentals of linux. the disrtos are all very similer. | 01:51 |
|---|
| Cereal | Wols: Done. Anything else I can do? Would "sudo apt-get remove automatix" remove it? | 01:51 |
|---|
| MrPiracy2 | wols_: intel onboard 946gz using driver i810 | 01:51 |
|---|
| enkidu_ak | I am attempting to perform apt-get update after installing the medibuntu repo lists and key, but packages.medibuntu.org/dists/gutsy/free/binary-i386/ is returning 309: Moved. Non-free bin packagrs does the same hing. The strange this is thqat I can resolve the name just fine through my browser. Dig reveals three IPs being pointed to by that domain and I think that this is confusing wget. Would any of you have any recommendations for remedying this issue? | 01:51 |
|---|
| wols_ | glycerine: I don't think it does, only the GL provider which would be mesa in case of intel | 01:51 |
|---|
| Dr_willis_ | Cereal, that may remove the program. but wont undo the damage its done. | 01:51 |
|---|
| wols_ | MrPiracy2: then you should use the "i810" or "intel" driver and should enable DRM and DRI | 01:52 |
|---|
| glycerine | wols_ hmm learn something new everyday | 01:52 |
|---|
| Josspyker | Shri: usb?what card | 01:52 |
|---|
| JCDENTON | is the fedora core similar to ubuntu ? | 01:52 |
|---|
| Cereal | Dr_willis_: Okay. Is there ANY way I can restore it? | 01:52 |
|---|
| MrPiracy2 | wols_: i am sure DRI is enabled, lemme check DRM | 01:52 |
|---|
| JCDENTON | is the fedora core similar to ubuntu one ? | 01:52 |
|---|
| wols_ | JCDENTON: only insofar as it's a general purpose distro | 01:52 |
|---|
| LjL | JCDENTON, ask in #ubuntu-offtopic, this is a support channel | 01:52 |

| Ttech | Hi, somone whats the bot variable to give me the link on the thing on how to fix grub? | 01:52 |
|---|
| Shri | http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49647/ | 01:52 |

| Dr_willis_ | Cereal, no idea. I know better then to use AUtomatix. :) | 01:53 |

| SQFreak | sunogbaga and glycerine: Got it! KDE's GUI puts in a line "msdfs proxy = no" that screws it up. Take out that line and it works great. | 01:53 |
|---|
| Cereal | Dr_willis_: I didn't :/ | 01:53 |

|---|
| Ttech | Thank you wols_. :) | 01:53 |
|---|
| wols_ | thresher: then you will need fglrx | 01:53 |
|---|
| thresher | and showing mesa indirect | 01:53 |
|---|
| SQFreak | sunogbaga: I bet if you look in your smb.conf file you don't have that line. | 01:53 |
|---|
| Ttech | SE linux? | 01:53 |
|---|
| Ttech | ook | 01:53 |
|---|
| Josspyker | Shri: give me a minute | 01:53 |
|---|
| glycerine | SQFreak awesome. Make sure you write that down somewhere! | 01:53 |
|---|
| JCDENTON | yea | 01:53 |
|---|
| MrPiracy2 | wols_: what do u mean kernel module? | 01:53 |
|---|
| Dr_willis_ | Cereal, there is/was an #automatix channel and thei web site/forums | 01:53 |
|---|
| glycerine | SQFreak even better stick it on the forums so it's google searchable :) | 01:53 |
|---|
| wols_ | MrPiracy2: kernel module. drm | 01:53 |
|---|
| MrPiracy2 | wols_: wow, someone DRI disapeared from there ... should i try to put it back? | 01:53 |

| sunogbaga | SQFreak: great work GUIsss!! that's why i use vim for text editing.. | 01:55 |
|---|
| MrPiracy2 | wols_: oh no, i have been looking at my xorg.conf and it has been automaticly modified, i810 was replaced by "vesa" | 01:55 |
|---|
| mular | any ideas why my swap file would stop auto mounting on boot up? If I run gparted I see that its off.. | 01:55 |

|---|
| wols_ | Cereal: overwriting files you installed with dpkg, installing additional files ubuntu doens't know about and will cause problems on next update, not being able to properly uninstall, etc | 01:55 |
|---|
| SQFreak | sunogbaga: Yes, and so does my computer science professor. But I didn't want to screw it up so I used a GUI. Apparently that was a bad plan. | 01:55 |
|---|
| Dr_willis_ | installs all kinds of things in bad ways with littl eerror checking, and with the release of gutsy.. lets just say that automatix really is not needed these days | 01:55 |
|---|
| JCDENTON | whats the channel for the fedora distrib? | 01:55 |
|---|
| wols_ | MrPiracy2: poor you. | 01:55 |
|---|
| Dr_willis_ | Cereal, it never was really needed. | 01:56 |
|---|
| pppoe_dude | hmm... im gonna attempt doing something fairly risky | 01:56 |
|---|
| wols_ | JCDENTON: #fedora | 01:56 |
|---|
| JCDENTON | ok :) | 01:56 |
|---|
| Cereal | Wols: damn :/ So the easiest really would be to reinstall? | 01:56 |
|---|
| pppoe_dude | making my own deb package! | 01:56 |
|---|
| Cereal | Dr_willis_: I can see that :/ | 01:56 |
|---|
| Pir8 | Is GParted supposed to scan all devices for over 5 minutes, each time I run it ? | 01:56 |
|---|
| sunogbaga | SQFreak: learning from our mistake.. :P | 01:56 |
|---|
| MrPiracy2 | wols_: how can i find a xorg.conf model for my card? | 01:56 |
|---|
| wols_ | Cereal: you could be lucky and it might work withou a reinstall. or you might now. #ubuntu can't say and to be honest doesn't really care. we don't like or deal with automatix | 01:56 |
|---|
| JCDENTON | hey i cant join the channel ;( | 01:56 |

| sunogbaga | JCDENTON: which channel? | 01:57 |

|---|
| wols_ | thresher: use sudo dpkg-reonfigure xserver-xorg | 02:02 |

| nickrud | |juan|, what card? | 02:08 |
|---|
| X-nor | |juan|: glxinfo | grep direct | 02:08 |
|---|
| |juan| | 6600gt | 02:08 |

| glycerine | Onyx alternatively, get the import/export plugin for firefox and export your keepass db. That might work | 02:08 |
|---|
| Josspyker | Shri: ok | 02:08 |
|---|
| nickrud | don't know nvidia , sorry. | 02:08 |
|---|
| Onyx | glycerine: Damn. Just migrated all my stuff from RoboForm from Windows (awesome program), but as it stands now KeePassX looks like the best alternative. | 02:08 |

|---|
| |juan| | both are working fine | 02:10 |

| Pir8 | dual monitors is such a pain to get working | 02:10 |
|---|
| matt_ | just wondering...as I've only used debian based distros (ubuntu and kubuntu), do most terminal commands work across all distros? i'm talking about the mount commands, umount commands, etc. | 02:10 |

| glycerine | Onyx yes. Haven't tried to import anything but it might work. Give it a shot and let us know ;) | 02:12 |
|---|
| nickrud | thresher, after you install that stuff, you need to log out and back in (hit ctl-alt-backspace while logged out for luck) | 02:12 |
|---|
| Onyx | glycerine: Will do -- just wanted to make sure I wasn't looking at some other BS :P | 02:12 |

| thresher | nickrud the stuff didnt install | 02:12 |
|---|
| nickrud | X-nor, I got lots of space, but none for kdey | 02:13 |

| nickrud | thresher, if you look up, you'll see I said that was a package list, not a command. What chat client are you using? | 02:14 |

| enkidu_ak | I am attempting to perform apt-get update after installing the medibuntu repo lists and key, but packages.medibuntu.org/dists/gutsy/free/binary-i386/ is returning 309: Moved. Non-free bin packagrs does the same hing. The strange this is thqat I can resolve the name just fine through my browser. Dig reveals three IPs being pointed to by that domain and I think that this is confusing wget. Would any of you have any recommendations for remedying this issue? | 02:17 |

| reya276 | jimmygoon: something about a composite engine | 02:17 |

| nickrud | thresher, install xchat , it works better for irc. For example, if I put your nick in the line I type, it shows up red on your client so you don't miss posts easily | 02:17 |

|---|
| nickrud | thresher, theres the command you want to use: sudo aptitude install xchat compizconfig-settings-manager emerald xserver-xorg . | 02:17 |
|---|
| jimmygoon | thresher, I would second what nickrud is saying, pidgin/gaim/purple is crap for irc... xchat/irssi is the only way to go | 02:17 |
|---|
| reya276 | no I have a 256mb ATI card which handles Vista very well so ubuntu should be no problem | 02:17 |

| thresher_ | Well when I chose the option it errored | 02:22 |
|---|
| alexvd | Jimmygoon: yes I turned on that option in properties. I deleted the original panel. I created a new one | 02:22 |
|---|
| Josspyker | Shri: yes | 02:22 |
|---|
| Shri | what if I blacklist b43 | 02:22 |
|---|
| bulmer | jimbo, youare on chatting here now, this is for another pc? | 02:22 |

| alexvd | jimmygoon: yes | 02:22 |
|---|
| nickrud | thresher_, you haven't answered my question | 02:22 |
|---|
| Shri | instead of blacklisting bcm43xx | 02:22 |
|---|
| glycerine | robr it won't only apache 2 is in the gutsy universe according to packages.ubuntu.com | 02:23 |
|---|
| thresher_ | nickrud: i wasnt able to get the error to go away by clicking ok | 02:23 |
|---|
| thresher_ | nickrud: ill be back | 02:23 |
|---|
| Shri | like its in most tutorials | 02:23 |
|---|
| alexvd | jimmygoon: I even checked in gconf editor | 02:23 |
|---|
| jimmygoon | alexvd and it simply won't autohide? | 02:23 |
|---|
| bulmer | jimbo, elaborate on your network layout, what is connected to what? | 02:23 |
|---|
| jimmygoon | is there anything like trying to get your attention or something? | 02:23 |
|---|
| Shri | then I might not get the alternate driver shit at the end | 02:23 |
|---|
| robr | glycerine: E: Package apache has no installation candidate. | 02:23 |
|---|
| alexvd | jimmygoon: yes. I did modify it | 02:23 |
|---|
| etjhnet | jimmygoon: well? | 02:23 |
|---|
| Daemonik | I'm using Kubuntu 7.10, what program would one use to record a video to upload to youtube? | 02:23 |
|---|
| jimmygoon | alexvd, what do you mean modify it? | 02:23 |
|---|
| Josspyker | Shri: the b43 should be the correct driver,but show me the tut. | 02:24 |
|---|
| glycerine | robr yes according to packages.ubuntu.com, apache2 is the only install option from the repos | 02:24 |
|---|
| jimbo | i have a linksys router and a wireless card i believe is also linksys | 02:24 |
|---|
| alexvd | jimmygoon: I made it larger 50px and I turned off expand. | 02:24 |
|---|
| Shri | hold on | 02:24 |
|---|
| jimbo | i can see the network fine | 02:24 |
|---|
| robr | glycerine: ok, so does that mean i need to download a file and install from source or something? | 02:24 |
|---|
| patrick_ | hey pidgin randomly kicks me off (this is not an internet connection problem, im running 7.10) anyone got any ideas on how to fix it? | 02:24 |
|---|
| jimmygoon | etjhnet, I don't know. Someone will have to patch nautilus / gnome's removable media handler. it's not something that an IRC user is going to fix. the best thing to do is to file a bug report and report it to the mailing list, I don't have time to go edit the source | 02:24 |
|---|
| bulmer | jimbo you need to prefix your responses to me with my nick, or else i will miss..way too many chatters here | 02:24 |
|---|
| jimbo | and when i connect to it it appears that i am connected on the panel but i can't seem to get on the internet | 02:24 |
|---|
| jimmygoon | alexvd, 50 :( | 02:25 |
|---|
| jimmygoon | alexvd, lemme see if I can reproduce to see if it is a bug | 02:25 |
|---|
| thresher | nickrud: im back after rebooting | 02:25 |
|---|
| jimbo | blumer, when i connect to the internet it appears that i am connected on the panel | 02:25 |
|---|
| glycerine | robr that would probably be the easiest option, rather than adding an older repo and dealing with package dep problems | 02:25 |
|---|
| nickrud | thresher, reboot wasn't necessary, just a logout | 02:25 |
|---|
| robr | glycerine: OK thanks for that, I'll give it a go | 02:26 |
|---|
| alexvd | jimmygoon: Running 7.10 up to date, Turned of compiz | 02:26 |
|---|
| jimmygoon | alexvd, did you close the panel options dialog? | 02:26 |

| bulmer | jimbo you need to prefix your responses to me with my nick, or else i will miss..way too many chatters here | 02:26 |

|---|
| Shri | this seems to be the same problem | 02:26 |

|---|
| Pir8 | so is there a reason why when one installs ubuntu, one cannot customize what to include and exclude as part of the install ? | 02:26 |

|---|
| jimmygoon | nickrud, except for when ubuntu goes all screwy on me, won't launch new apps and won't bring up the dialog to let me log out, or if I ctrl+alt+backspace it just goes to a black screen :( | 02:27 |

|---|
| nickrud | jimmygoon, that's one reason I put the nearly in. You must be using one of the proprietary drivers :) | 02:28 |

| jimmygoon | nickrud, not for graphics | 02:28 |

| jimmygoon | alexvd, come to think it though, I have deleted my bar because I was running awn for a while too | 02:30 |

| jimmygoon | sadaiyappan, do you have a decent pc/graphics card? | 02:30 |

|---|
| jimmygoon | for the first time though emerald still has to be run manually after install | 02:32 |
|---|
| sadaiyappan | it works okay | 02:32 |

| jimbo | bulmer, i have just installed ubunto and when it first boot up the wireless card showed 3 connections available, i chose my connetion and entered the passkey but it didn't connect | 02:32 |
|---|
| crdlb | nickrud: because the compiz wrapper was already running emerald for you | 02:32 |
|---|
| nickrud | crdlb, lol, makes sense | 02:32 |
|---|
| jimmygoon | alexvd, and there's no good reason as to why those would stop anthing :/ | 02:32 |
|---|
| crdlb | nickrud: && runs the second command after the first command exits successfully | 02:32 |
|---|
| glycerine | Onyx keep in mind on that link that greasemonkey isn't exactly the most secure thing out there | 02:32 |
|---|
| jimbo | bulmer, then i tried to setup a network by going to the adminstrator, then network then setting it up manually | 02:32 |
|---|
| Josspyker | Shri: yep,wich kernel do you use | 02:32 |
|---|
| Pelo | neutrinomass, when you don'T get sound on startup can you still get sounds from playing audio files and movied ? | 02:33 |
|---|
| |chiz| | Does anyone have some insight into this? I'm running Gutsy/Compiz/fglrx without XGL so I assume I'm running AIXGL, fgl_gears doesn't have a window border and its very choppy, this is also the case for my own opengl programs. | 02:33 |

|---|
| snadge | /part | 02:33 |

| crdlb | thresher: no, it doesn't hurt | 02:33 |

| LegionaryK | that ubotu bot is impressive ^^ | 02:33 |

| thresher | crdlb: what if i run it before asking you , is that going to create a problem? | 02:33 |
|---|
| Shri | the tutorial say that my chipset needs a patch for my kernel | 02:34 |
|---|
| nickrud | crdlb, I had assumed that compiz was releasing itself, like some other apps do (such as nautilus) | 02:34 |
|---|
| Pelo | Shri, why are you using 2.6.24 since the current ubuntu kernel is .22 ? | 02:34 |

| neutrinomass | Pelo: Yep | 02:34 |

| alexvd | IndyGunFreak: I dont know why i am having this issue. Annoying | 02:48 |
|---|
| thresher | and it was erroring out nickrud, i am not being rude | 02:49 |
|---|
| jimmygoon | Edwardxp, you will have to configure your webcam-server settings... | 02:49 |
|---|
| Pelo | spooge, maybe the ppl in #vmware can give you a hand | 02:49 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | alexvd: don't know.. i hate auto-hide, so i probably wouldnt have noticed it if i had the problem | 02:49 |
|---|
| jimmygoon | thresher, what is the error | 02:49 |
|---|
| spooge | thanks! | 02:49 |
|---|
| Shpook | Pelo: lol Alright, sounds good. As soon as the Gutsy upgrade is complete. | 02:49 |

| jimbo1 | bulmer, I have a harddrive that ntsf and when i try to mount it it says that it was hybernated by windows and that i have to shutdown windows properly and to access it but i no longer have windows on my desktop so this is impossible | 02:49 |

|---|
| thresher | emeral not found | 02:49 |
|---|
| nickrud | thresher, <nickrud> thresher, then sudo aptitude install compizconfig-settings-manager xserver-xgl emerald <-- copy and paste that into the terminal <-- that errored out? | 02:49 |
|---|
| Shpook | PulseAudio looks and sounds promising...let's see if it holds up. | 02:50 |
|---|
| jimmygoon | Edwardxp, it may be that that particulr software doesn't support that | 02:50 |
|---|
| Pelo | thresher, sudo apt-get install emerald , exit synaptic first | 02:50 |
|---|
| jimmygoon | Edwardxp, and java has nothing to do with it | 02:50 |
|---|
| scragar | with the desktop effects how do I make the expo effect(shows all your desktops at once by zooming out) accept single clicks to change desktops instead of double | 02:50 |
|---|
| jimmygoon | !ccsm | scragar | 02:50 |
|---|
| ubotu | scragar: To enable advanced customization of desktop effects in Ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy), install 'compizconfig-settings-manager'. A new option will appear in your appearance properties - See also !compiz - Help in #compiz-fusion | 02:50 |
|---|
| Pelo | scragar, ask in #compiz | 02:50 |
|---|
| crdlb | scragar: you cannot | 02:50 |
|---|
| thresher | i reran nickrud command in terminal it is working now after synaptics install | 02:50 |
|---|
| jimmygoon | scragar, you will have to do that and configure it manually | 02:50 |
|---|
| crdlb | why would you want that? | 02:51 |
|---|
| bulmer | jimbo, i am not aware of such thing as hibernated hd..try mount -t ntfs /dev/hdc1 assuming its hdc1 is the ntfs partition | 02:51 |
|---|
| thresher | Pelo: i installed emerald within synaptics so it seems to be working for me now | 02:51 |
|---|
| jimmygoon | scragar, actually, sorry, crdlb is right... I checked ... you can't even make it do it that way | 02:51 |
|---|
| Pelo | thresher, congradulations | 02:51 |
|---|
| crdlb | scragar: well you can set "Double click time" to an extremely small amount in CCSM | 02:51 |
|---|
| Yancho | is there a way i can check how a network printer is being called? | 02:51 |
|---|
| crdlb | which would prevent you from ever triggering a double click | 02:51 |
|---|
| scragar | ok, thanks for the trying guys | 02:51 |
|---|
| alexvd | IndyGunFreak: So I noticed that when I unselect expand my desktop items shift over to the right into the other screen. Wierd | 02:52 |
|---|
| bulmer | jimbo, i missed the mount point... mount -t ntfs /dev/hdc1 /mnt | 02:52 |

| * Pelo watches half the questions go rigth over his head | 02:52 |
| Invert314 | Odd-rationale, didn't work | 02:52 |

| * nickrud thinks Pelo is verrry short then ;P | 02:53 |
| Odd-rationale | Invert314: Have you tried reinstalling fluxbox? | 02:53 |
|---|
| Edwardxp | webcam-server -c "Edward is Awesome" -g 640x480; this is really cool | 02:53 |
|---|
| Invert314 | Odd-rationale, how do i do that? | 02:53 |
|---|
| Edwardxp | http://75.6.224.220:8888/ | 02:53 |
|---|
| thresher | so i logged out and back in, I received a messgae indicating my xgl had changed nickrud pelo crdlb | 02:53 |
|---|
| * Pelo hopes a hard questions goes right over his head and hits nickrud | 02:53 |
| IndyGunFreak | alexvd: i have no logical explanation for that, it works fine for me.. | 02:53 |
|---|
| Odd-rationale | Invert314: Synaptic is one way... | 02:53 |

|---|
| nickrud | Pelo, the scar tissue is so deep I can't feel them anymore | 02:53 |

| sleepster | the official release | 02:53 |
|---|
| thresher | should i now go play with my advanced seettings and kick it up a notch? | 02:54 |
|---|
| Odd-rationale | !hardy | sleepster | 02:54 |

| ubotu | sleepster: Hardy Heron is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (8.04-LTS), due April 2008 - For more info, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardyHeron - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1, NOT #ubuntu | 02:54 |
|---|
| jimmygoon | sleepster, the numbers are based off of YEAR-MONTH | 02:54 |
|---|
| Pelo | thresher, now go in menu > sys > prefs > appearance, and turn on the advance effects | 02:54 |
|---|
| jimmygoon | so 08.04 is April 2008 just like every year :) | 02:54 |
|---|
| Ziimp | naaaacht :P | 02:54 |
|---|
| jimbo1 | bulmer, i did that and i get the message "The NTFS partition is hibernated. Please resume and shutdown Windows propery, so mounting could be done safely." | 02:54 |
|---|
| Odd-rationale | Invert314: You can search for fluxbox in synaptic. Then mark for reinstalll | 02:54 |
|---|
| jimmygoon | ooh ooh! another LTS... I forgot! | 02:54 |
|---|
| Invert314 | Odd-rationale, good idea | 02:54 |
|---|
| Invert314 | i'll try that now | 02:54 |
|---|
| jimmygoon | speaking of which, how is the artwork going for that | 02:55 |

| bulmer | jimbo1, i have not done ntfs stuff with linux..so am not able to suggest anything | 02:55 |
|---|
| alexvd | IndyGunFreak: I have another question that could be related. At one point I was trying to mess with Xorg settings and I put an option in that specified a memory size. It caused a really wierd situation that when i enabled compiz it then gave me a black bar across the right half of my screen. I cannot figure out how to get rid of that. I would assume to rerun xorg setup but I am not sure. I did edit that out of Xorg but it n | 02:55 |
|---|
| alexvd | ever got rid of it. | 02:55 |
|---|
| Invert314 | thanks Odd-rationale | 02:55 |

| spooge | hi...um...i have a dumb question | 02:56 |
|---|
| spooge | how do i get to the GUI? | 02:56 |
|---|
| spooge | i think ubuntu is rnning on vmware | 02:56 |
|---|
| Pelo | thresher, maybe you should ask in #compiz-fusion, they will be able to get all the stuff storted out | 02:56 |
|---|
| spooge | on my mac | 02:56 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | alexvd: not really sure, i've honestly never had a prob w/ Dual screens.., so i couldn't really tell you, reconfiguring would probably work. here's a pic of my desktop w/ the taskbars autohid.. youc an barely see them at the top on each "side".. | 02:56 |
|---|
| Pelo | spooge, gui should get loaded on startup | 02:57 |

| spooge | oh | 02:57 |

| alexvd | IndyGunFreak: something funky with any new panel I add. I can autohide the top and uncheck expand with no issues. | 02:57 |

|---|
| Shpook | jimmygoon: that nice in an ugly way...I don't know what to think | 02:57 |
|---|
| Pelo | jimmygoon, I don'T know about official but that is pretty much the last thing I've seen, it is niceish but I don't like it for a default nor for enticing new users | 02:57 |
|---|
| bulmer | jimbo1, what is the universe app? | 02:57 |
|---|
| alexvd | IndyGunFreak: what is the command for reconfiguring xorg sudo dpgkg reconfigure???? | 02:58 |
|---|
| Pelo | jimmygoon, personnaly I think default themes should be light and inviting | 02:58 |
|---|
| UBUNTUISLOVED | does anyone know how to connect to PDANet software? | 02:58 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | alexvd: pretty sure... | 02:58 |
|---|
| jimmygoon | Pello, Shpook, well, lets just say, its a good thing that I've gotten good at customizing ubuntu to stave away the default look. | 02:58 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | alexvd: hang on i'll look for sure | 02:58 |
|---|
| Shpook | Pelo: there's no contrast...that would scare me away... | 02:58 |
|---|
| jimmygoon | Pelo, agreed. the visual appeal really is a big draw | 02:58 |
|---|
| jimbo1 | bulmer, i found, the add remove program thing is what im talking about | 02:58 |
|---|
| Shpook | jimmygoon: lol | 02:59 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | alexvd: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 02:59 |
|---|
| Pelo | Shpook, a very good point, I'm not saying they should use the default gnome theme but his does have advantages | 02:59 |

| Pelo | thresher, did yo ask the lovely ppl in #compiz-fusion to give you a hand on this ? | 03:13 |
|---|
| thresher | whjat is gl desktop | 03:13 |
|---|
| jimmygoon | ader10, what do you mean "subroot" ? | 03:13 |
|---|
| ader10 | jimmygoon: there's the "root" directory "/" | 03:13 |
|---|
| thresher | Pelo: i dont really know what to ask | 03:13 |
|---|
| Robbie_Crash | and ader10 why not do df? | 03:13 |
|---|
| Pelo | ader10, menu > ystem> admin > system monitor , last tab | 03:13 |
|---|
| jimmygoon | ader10, just type "df" in the terminal... and then it tells you the breakdown of your partitions | 03:14 |
|---|
| tanath | ader10, you can already see how much space is used per partition. | 03:14 |
|---|
| jimmygoon | haha answer-assault | 03:14 |
|---|
| tanath | if you use df, use df -h for human readable | 03:14 |
|---|
| ader10 | You're all missing the point :P | 03:14 |
|---|
| thresher | 181 users and no one is talkin pelo | 03:14 |
|---|
| Robbie_Crash | what point? | 03:14 |
|---|
| jimmygoon | or Applications->Accessories->Disk Usage Analyzer | 03:14 |
|---|
| Robbie_Crash | you want to see how much disk space there is | 03:14 |
|---|
| Cereal | Okay, So I've installed Gparted (trying to format my External HDD) but the drives on it seems to be locked O.o How do I "unlock" it? | 03:14 |
|---|
| Robbie_Crash | do df | 03:14 |
|---|
| Pelo | thresher, I think you just need to say what card you have and that you are having trouble getting effects to work properly, you can then review your driver situtation with them and the xgl stuff as well | 03:14 |
|---|
| jimmygoon | OR you can go to "Computer" and right click on the Windows drive icon and goto Properties | 03:14 |
|---|
| ader10 | Way to shoot down a suggestion in a matter of seconds, I'm just saying one of the few reasons | 03:14 |
|---|
| Robbie_Crash | or umount /media/windows and then check your disk usage through whatever gui you use | 03:14 |
|---|
| |juan| | frkn compiz :( | 03:14 |
|---|
| Pelo | thresher, and not all channel are as busy as this one | 03:15 |
|---|
| |juan| | the youtube video looked so awesome :( | 03:15 |
|---|
| tanath | or subtract the space used in /media/windows from the total | 03:15 |
|---|
| Phil2 | Hello; how do I download an application (wifi-radar) and it's dependencies from one computer and put it onto another computer (that doesn't have networking) | 03:15 |
|---|
| Pelo | thresher, I what problems did you have with the restrictred driver ? | 03:15 |
|---|
| Cereal | Okay, So I've installed Gparted (trying to format my External HDD) but the drives on it seems to be locked O.o How do I "unlock" it? | 03:15 |
|---|
| jimmygoon | ader10, the benefits of mounting drives as directories far outweigh the opposite, heck you can even do it in windows even you dig deep enough (in the mmc) | 03:15 |

| dahitokiri | |juan|, link to youtube vid? | 03:15 |

|---|
| Robbie_Crash | and why would you want to, you'd just see a folder with all your stuff in it, it wouldn't help do what you're saying at all | 03:16 |
|---|
| tanath | important bit @ end | 03:16 |
|---|
| Pelo | Cereal, unmount it | 03:16 |
|---|
| ader10 | Guys, don't embarrass yourselves. stubborn fanboyism always leaves a bad mark | 03:16 |
|---|
| |juan| | jimmygoon: when i goto system >> preferences >> appearance >> visual effects and click any of the options besides 'None' my X restarts | 03:17 |
|---|
| Cereal | Pelo: Will I be able to format it then? | 03:17 |
|---|
| jimmygoon | ader10, lol, we gave like 8 reasons why its better... and there are still the SAME ways of checking freespace | 03:17 |
|---|
| Pelo | Cereal, you should | 03:17 |
|---|
| |juan| | jimmygoon: and dumps me at login | 03:17 |
|---|
| Pelo | Cereal, you'll need to create partitons and format those | 03:17 |
|---|
| ader10 | jimmygoon: I only saw one reason and I don't remember it. | 03:17 |
|---|
| jimmygoon | |juan|, graphics card? | 03:17 |
|---|
| Robbie_Crash | ader10 what do you mean by sub root? | 03:17 |
|---|
| |juan| | jimmygoon: nvidia geforce 6600gt | 03:17 |
|---|
| Robbie_Crash | like C: ? | 03:17 |
|---|
| Cereal | Pelo: Like unmount. Then mount it again? Right now there are to NTFS partitions on it. How do I delete them? | 03:17 |
|---|
| Pelo | Cereal, well basicaly , creating a partiton will ask for a format | 03:17 |
|---|
| nickrud | ader10, we're parrotting, true. But parrotting 30+ years of experience. Not fanboyism, I would think | 03:17 |
|---|
| Cereal | Pelo: So in Gparted I should unmount both of them or what? | 03:18 |
|---|
| ader10 | Funny how instead of asking me why I think that you tell me how to check the free space left in my linux partition. I wasn't asking how to do that. | 03:18 |
|---|
| jimmygoon | ader10, 1: you can still do it, 4 different ways .... one, terminal->"df" two, Applications->Accessories->Disk Usage Analyzer three, gnome-taskmanager rip off thing, four, goto "Computer" right click on the drive and do it just like you would in windows, plus all of the benefits of having drives mounted in folders | 03:18 |
|---|
| Pelo | Cereal, got gparted opened ? , select the drive, select the partiton, right ciick unmount, right click delete, | 03:18 |
|---|
| ader10 | jimmygoon: See what I just said | 03:18 |

|---|
| Pelo | Cereal, of course it worked, did you thinK I would give you bad advice ? | 03:19 |
|---|
| jimmygoon | |juan|, oh, are you sure that xorg is using hte driver you installed? sorry I've not got much experience with the nitty gritty drive nonsense | 03:19 |
