| 00:03 | Squawk | bod_, you put . in your path and if you happen to type the name of an executable file thats in the current directory, bobs your unble, its executed |

| 00:03 | bashir | please help |
| 00:03 | nickrud_ | !ask | bashir |
| 00:03 | ubotu | bashir: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-) |
| 00:03 | Squawk | nickrud_, he did ask, he asked about .jar files |
| 00:03 | bod_ | bashir, google is your friend |
| 00:04 | bashir | how do i open a .jar file |
| 00:04 | nickrud_ | Squawk: ah, missed that. |
| 00:04 | Squawk | bashir, i never heard of .jar, so find out what application creates one |
| 00:04 | bashir | java |
| 00:04 | nickrud_ | it's java. Don't use java myself |
| 00:04 | hischild | Squawk, that would be a java file |
| 00:04 | mneptok | bashir: what are you trying to do? |
| 00:04 | bashir | its for the java runtime enviornment |
| 00:04 | bod_ | bashir, try using firefox? |
| 00:04 | void^ | bashir: java -jar foo.jar, or unzip |
| 00:05 | bluewraith | bashir: a quick google popped this up http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/redhat-fedora-linux-help/25239-how-unpack-jar-files-linux.html |
| 00:05 | bashir | thanks |
| * bod_ wonders if there is a 'google is your friend' factoid? |
| 00:05 | Photocopy | Where can I get libatk1.0-udeb for gutsy? |
| 00:06 | bod_ | Photocopy, repo? |
| 00:06 | beautifulsnow | !google |
| 00:06 | ubotu | Google is a very popular search engine: http://www.google.com - Google also has a Linux-specific search engine: http://google.com/linux |
| 00:06 | Photocopy | bod_: Not in there |
| 00:06 | bod_ | Photocopy, ok |
| 00:06 | mneptok | Photocopy: apt-get install libatk1.0-0 |
| 00:06 | bluewraith | bashir: and upon reading that... it looks like its not as helpful as the title may lead it to be. sorry about that |
| 00:06 | mneptok | Photocopy: (and it is there) ;) |
| 00:06 | Squawk | hischild, thanks, never worked with java |
| 00:06 | Photocopy | mneptok: Im looking for libatk1.0-udeb |
| 00:06 | bod_ | beautifulsnow, i was thinkin more of one that tells people to use oogle (not just informing them of its exixtence) |
| 00:06 | nickrud_ | Photocopy: probably have to find it on the cd |
| 00:07 | basso | How the heck can i mount my 3 ntfs discs in ubuntu? |
| 00:07 | beautifulsnow | bod_ change topic maybe ^_^ |
| 00:07 | Photocopy | nickrud_: Arent those things in the repos though? |
| 00:07 | bashir | i did it once in an older isntall, i know it can be done |
| 00:07 | nickrud_ | Photocopy: or archive.ubuntu.com/pool |
| * bod_ ;~) |
| 00:07 | Squawk | basso, mount -t ntfs partition directory |
| 00:07 | nickrud_ | Photocopy: no, they're installation debs, not regular ones |
| 00:07 | Squawk | basso: (put sudo infront of that) |
| 00:07 | icesword | what will this command do"sudo passwd -l root" |
| 00:07 | basso | how do i know the partion directory? |
| 00:07 | bod_ | basso, ntfs3g |
| 00:07 | Photocopy | nickrud_: I dont even understand you anyway |
| 00:07 | nickrud_ | icesword: locks the root password |
| 00:08 | bod_ | !ntfs3g | basso |
| 00:08 | ubotu | basso: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions |
| === maco_ is now known as macogw |
| 00:08 | nickrud_ | Photocopy: udebs are special debs designed to be used during installation only |
| 00:08 | hischild | Squawk, no problem. I might not know it all, but i try to help where i can :-) |
| 00:08 | basso | Ubuntu 7.10 comes with an NTFS driver and mounts NTFS partitions by default. |
| 00:08 | basso | hmmm |
| 00:08 | Squawk | basso, the directory is any directory you want (maybe /media/windows1 /media/windows2 and /media/windows3. The partitions themselves look in fdisk |
| 00:08 | icesword | nickrud_, that means i cannot use su become root,right |
| 00:09 | bod_ | basso, ntfs3g will make your life alot easier then doing it manually |
| 00:09 | beautifulsnow | *Question*: I attempted to install wmware but it failed, but now whenever I try to install ANY other applicaiton, apt-get tries to configure/reinstall(?) wnmare... how can I stop it? |
| 00:09 | Squawk | basso, probably something like sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/hda1 /media/windows1 (make windows1 with mkdir and check the partition id) |
| 00:09 | Photocopy | nickrud_: http://packages.ubuntu.com/libatk1.0-udeb says libatk1.0-udeb is in the universe repos. I have it enabled and the package is not there. |
| 00:09 | nickrud_ | icesword: yes. you can, however, use sudo -i to get the same results |
| 00:09 | bod_ | beautifulsnow, sudo apt-get purge wmware |
| 00:09 | vasco | hi all |
| 00:09 | triorieel | I have a white pixel on what appears to be the very top left of my screen and am wondering if anyone else gets this? (Ubuntu 7.10, compiz, gnome) |
| 00:09 | bod_ | wnmare* |
| 00:10 | bluewraith | triorieel: what kind of moniter do you have |
| 00:10 | Squawk | nickrud_, would you be able to lock the root password like that? |
| 00:10 | beautifulsnow | bod_ E: Couldn't find package wmware |
| 00:10 | nickrud_ | Photocopy: because it is not a standard deb. Only .deb files will be visible to a apt-get |
| 00:10 | random0ne | does ubuntu have a preferred log anonymizer/scruber |
| 00:10 | triorieel | ^its software...screen shots show it |
| 00:10 | vasco | not me tri |
| 00:10 | bod_ | beautifulsnow, use the name of the package (sorry) |
| 00:10 | nickrud_ | Squawk: yes |
| 00:10 | Scunizi | triorieel, sounds like you have a dead pixel |
| 00:10 | bluewraith | triorieel: ok. :) |
| 00:10 | Squawk | nickrud_, scary (I aint gonna try it) |
| 00:10 | beautifulsnow | bod_ yeah I tried that and wmware-player, it says the same thing >_> |
| 00:10 | bod_ | beautifulsnow, what command do you use to run the program? |
| 00:10 | nickrud_ | Squawk: you're still able to use sudo just fine. Preferred setup, anyway |
| 00:10 | Photocopy | nickrud_: The package im installing says I need it installed on my system... |
| 00:10 | danand_ | Photocopy - try https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/gutsy/+package/libatk1.0-udeb |
| 00:11 | bod_ | !info wmware |
| 00:11 | ubotu | Package wmware does not exist in gutsy |
| === con-man_ is now known as con-man |
| 00:11 | Photocopy | danand_: No, I guess I need teh libatk1.0-0 then right? Although the package im trying to install requires the udeb one.. |
| 00:11 | bluewraith | triorieel: do you have any themes installed? |
| 00:11 | bod_ | !find wnmare |
| 00:11 | beautifulsnow | bod_ its a v, not a w ;______; lol *doh! moment* |
| 00:11 | ubotu | Package/file wnmare does not exist in gutsy |
| 00:11 | nickrud_ | Photocopy: that is very strange, it should be depending on debs not udebs. Unless it's for some micro distro maybe |
| 00:11 | bod_ | !info vmware |
| 00:11 | ubotu | Package vmware does not exist in gutsy |
| 00:12 | danand_ | Photocopy - what package are you trying to install |
| 00:12 | Squawk | nickrud_, I pretty much figure that ubuntu pushes sudo so hard to encourage windows users switching to linux not to work as root (an excellent idea btw). But personaly I dont like the idea of my user password (or one accessible to my normal account) being able to give me root privs |
| 00:12 | triorieel | bluewraith: what do you mean themes? |
| 00:12 | nickrud_ | !vmware-server |
| 00:12 | ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about vmware-server - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi |
| 00:12 | nickrud_ | bod_: add deb http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu gutsy partner to your sources.list, sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install vmware-server |
| 00:12 | sjolshag | Have a resolver issue where it's trying to also resolve host.remote.domain.local.domain when explicitly requesting the resolution of host.remote.domain. (including final dot) |
| * bod_ laughs at nickrud's attempt to out bot me |
| * bod_ damn! |
| 00:12 | triorieel | bluewraith: I turned on some compiz addons, but as for gnome themes and such, nope |
| 00:12 | Photocopy | danand: libgtk-directfb-2.0-0-udeb |
| 00:12 | factotum | Anyone know a good article or whatnot about setting up a LAMP on my Desktop so that I could use it to try out something like Joomla? |
| 00:12 | bluewraith | bluewraith: what color scheme is your desktop using? It might be a problem with images not fully covering at that one pixel |
| 00:12 | swaj | beautifulsnow, maybe try 'sudo apt-cache search vmware' to get the exact name? |
| 00:12 | bluewraith | triorieel: was it there before compiz? |
| 00:12 | bod_ | beautifulsnow, add deb http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu gutsy partner to your sources.list, sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install vmware-server |
| 00:13 | nickrud_ | bod_: I've suggested that as a factoid, until then I have it as a text replace ;) |
| 00:13 | Squawk | triorieel, not just a dead pixel on your monitor (guess out of left field) |
| 00:13 | triorieel | not sure...I don't even know if I turned compiz on or if was turned on by default and I just enabled some extras |
| 00:13 | bod_ | nickrud_, i think we need a better 'google is your friend' factoid ;~) |
| 00:13 | beautifulsnow | swaj figured out its vmware-server .... bod_ wiill try, thanks |
| 00:13 | danand_ | Photocopy - what does that do? |
| 00:13 | Scunizi | factotum, easy.. download the server version and when installing it (in a VM or otherwise) it will ask if you want a lamp install.. say yes. 20 mins later you're ready to install joomla.. |
| 00:13 | triorieel | Squawk: I have screenshots that shows the pixel |
| 00:13 | YoThisBAlec | Anyone else having a problem with linux-restricted-modules? |
| 00:13 | nickrud_ | bod_: check my part message |
| 00:13 | sjolshag | Never mind. Seems to be a problem somewhere else, not ubuntu... |
| 00:13 | Squawk | triorieel, ouch, k |
| 00:14 | bod_ | nickrud_, whats a part message? |
| 00:14 | Photocopy | danand_: libgtk-directfb-2.0-0-udeb included in an archive downloaded form this page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/global_menu#deb which said to install all the debs in the archive, it stuck on this one. |
| 00:14 | nickrud_ | bod_: ah, you must have part/join messaged disabled |
| 00:14 | bod_ | nickrud_, i see al the green (in) red (out) lines when people join and stuff |
| 00:14 | nickrud_ | bod_: so, look at my part (out) message |
| 00:14 | Scunizi | factotum, of course if I missed the point of installing lamp on your current ubuntu machine that's a little different. |
| 00:15 | Jahromeo | how do i customize my taskbar to not get in the way of kiba -dock? - any tutorial to make it look good right now it looks stupid |
| 00:15 | bod_ | nickrud_, ("http://catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html#before") ??? thats a good sort of site ,.,.has it a factoid ? |
| 00:15 | nickrud_ | Jahromeo: generally people just remove the bottom panel when they run kiba dock |
| 00:15 | |Prometheus| | hi... can someone offer e a little help please.... Whenever I startup the system (Ie. After X Starts) Gimp loads twice... its a low ram system, so this is slowing everything down... its not listed in autostarted apps |
| 00:15 | chuy_max | hi, is there an installer to install ubuntu with an encrypted filesystem? |
| 00:15 | danand_ | Squawk - if your uncomfortable with sudo privs in your normal account then first create another user (say superme) and give that user sudo privs by adding the user to the admin group. then remove yourself from the admin group/ |
| 00:16 | Scunizi | factotum, if you're already running ubuntu you can just install mysql and php5 and apache2 |
| 00:16 | Kuwanger | Is there a reason why dpkg and synaptic don't have the same list of available packages? |
| 00:16 | mneptok | it's time to stop the discussion of sudo vs. root accounts. the topic is old, and belongs in -offtopic. |
| 00:16 | YoThisBAlec | Anyone else having a problem with linux-restricted-modules? I just updated the kernel and now it's broken. |

| 00:17 | triorieel | bluewraith: I put 'Visual Effects' to none and the pixel is still there. (assuming none turns compiz off) |
| 00:17 | Jahromeo | how do i remve the panel nickrud? |
| 00:17 | sarthor | Hi, where can i get help about dvb setting on ubuntu? here or in some other chan?? |

| 00:19 | basso | how do i open folders as root? |
| 00:19 | aimchanger | Bash script? I never have to through the GUI |
| 00:19 | triorieel | bluewraith: I have an lcd monitor which could be helping me notice it more. I only noticed it when placing a fullscreen video (black edges) |

| 00:19 | Jahromeo | how do i remve the panel as its in the way of my dock atm - any ideas? |

| 00:19 | Squawk | danand_, my initial question was just about initial root password after a clean install. After that the debate spred out a bit. This box is nicely tied down |
| 00:20 | mneptok | Jahromeo: right click it |
| 00:20 | bluewraith | triorieel: thats weird.... so its on top of all programs, yet its not a dead pixel? |
| 00:20 | danand_ | Photocopy - hey sorry; was just looking at that page... wait one |
| 00:20 | ere4si | Jahromeo, right click it |
| 00:20 | nickrud_ | Jahromeo: right click the panel, and select remove (you may have to remove a few items on the panel to get access to the panel itself) |
| 00:20 | basso | check if i can write stuff to the ntfs discs |
| 00:20 | Photocopy | danand_: K sorry back to you for being impatient |

| 00:26 | aimchanger | triorieel: yeah, it plays a lot of different formats of media. run the command: sudo apt-get install vlc |
| 00:26 | Photocopy | danand_: Yes, read the installation instructions part. those tar.gz archives arent package, they're archives, or at least i can say the second one is, its full of about 10 debs, all of which installed but the one... Note how installation instructions section says to install all teh debs? Thats what it must mean |
| 00:26 | swaj | basso: samba is stil good for network sharing, even with only linux boxes, but you might try nfs too. I don't have much experience with it, but I've heard it's fairly good. |
| 00:27 | aimchanger | triorieel: I mean basically you just want to play a certain type of video or audio file right? Chances are, VLC supports it |
| 00:27 | odinsbane | Well VLC is installed and it says it is playing |
| 00:27 | aimchanger | triorieel: theres no harm in trying it. If you still don't want it, just uninstall it |
| 00:27 | odinsbane | I have sound but no video. |
| 00:27 | triorieel | aimchanger: I installed it. but I am not having issues with playing videos. I am seeing a white pixel in gnome |
| 00:28 | triorieel | aimchanger: without playing video etc.. |
| 00:28 | aimchanger | Oh my bad. I meant for that to go to odinsbane. Sorry. |
| 00:28 | aimchanger | odinsbane: try googling for a codec for that extension. What is it again? |
| 00:28 | bluewraith | anyone know where to get kiba-dock? sourceforge lists no files to dl |
| 00:29 | odinsbane | .rmvb |
| 00:29 | Scunizi | bluewraith, http://www.kiba-dock.org/ |
| 00:29 | danand_ | Photocopy - ok - sorry i was just waiting for that to download - got in now |
| 00:29 | liddokun | wus up ppls |
| 00:29 | Photocopy | danand_: And you see what I mean right? I guess it patches gtk... maybe thats why they are udebs? |
| 00:29 | bluewraith | scunizi: i may be stupid, but i dont see any download links? |
| 00:29 | danand_ | Photocopy - s/in/it |
| 00:29 | aimchanger | odinsbane: Try mPlayer. its like VLC, but supports some different types I guess. |
| 00:30 | aimchanger | odinsbane: try this link: http://www.simplehelp.net/2007/07/27/how-to-play-rmvb-files-in-ubuntu/ |
| 00:30 | danand_ | Photocopy - have you install the actual libgtk-directfb-2.0-0_2.12.0-1ubuntu3.1_i386.deb first? |
| 00:30 | Scunizi | bluewraith, well at a quick glance they mentioned a new server on sourceforge.. http://www.kiba-dock.org/ |
| 00:30 | Jahromeo | ok seriously who knows how to disable kicker - the kubuntu panel - apparently nobody in kubuntu does |
| 00:30 | Photocopy | danand_: I really dont know, but about half those debs said they required something that was already listed as installed in synaptic, then when i checked they were all already installed themselves |
| * liddokun be back |
| 00:31 | Scunizi | bluewraith, posted the same link. check out the text on the page and you'll see the link |
| 00:31 | danand_ | Photocopy - how are you trying to install those debs? |
| 00:31 | Cain_ | anyone know of a chat client to try out besides Xchat...just want to look around a bit |
| 00:32 | Photocopy | danand_: The one in teh archive wouldnt install, it said i needed libgtk-2.0-0 which is listed as installed in synaptic, then i searched libgtk-directfb-2.0-0 and it said that was already installed |
| 00:32 | bluewraith | scunizi: yes, it takes me to sf, but under "downloads" lists nothing? |
| 00:32 | Photocopy | danand_: Double click in nautilus, bringing them up in gdebi. |
| 00:32 | aimchanger | Cain_: Gaim, LostIRC, Loqui, IRSSI, WeeChat |
| 00:32 | aimchanger | or for Kubuntu: Konversation, KvIRC, Kopete |
| 00:32 | Photocopy | aimchanger: Gaim = pidgin now, but I bet you already know... just a good idea to be as right as possible |
| 00:32 | triorieel | bluewraith: Ive closed all programs in gnome except Xchat (loaded it up after noticing problem) and its still there. ctrl+alt+F1 doesn't show the pixel so it is something gnome. If you don't experience it where should I go from here? |
| 00:33 | aimchanger | Photocopy: Yeah, just too lazy to type it haha |
| 00:33 | Scunizi | bluewraith, To check out kiba-dock from the Sourceforge server run: |
| 00:33 | Scunizi | svn co https://kibadock.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/kibadock/trunk kiba |
| 00:33 | Scunizi | You will find all kiba related Software in the kiba Directory. |
| 00:34 | vwduder | anyone else notice _bsddb.so is missing from python2.5 on todays hardy updates? |

| 00:34 | nickrud | vwduder: ask about it in #ubuntu+1 |
| 00:34 | vwduder | nickrud: ah thanks |

| 00:40 | cherwin | yo__: and copy it to /lib/firmware |
| 00:40 | archman | in terminal enter lspci -n |
| 00:40 | Photocopy | danand_: I guess I can't install anything unless its from synaptic... Thanks anyway |
| 00:40 | danand_ | yo__ - cool. in a terminal type sudo modprobe bcm43xx. afterwards type lsmod | grep bcm43xx. if you get some output (should be one line or so) you've installed the module |
| 00:40 | yo__ | command not found |
| 00:41 | danand_ | Photocopy - did you try that dpkg command? |
| 00:41 | archman | probably on 08:danand: yea but ndiswrapper it works better |

| 00:45 | ubotu | Daniel3: Avoid your questions being followed by a trail of "Please, help me", "Can nobody help me?", "I really need this!", and so on. This just contributes to making the channel unreadable. If you are not answered, ask again later; but see also !repeat and !patience |

| 00:45 | yo__ | how do i make the internet work? |
| 00:45 | Jahromeo | how do i get flash for konqueror? |
| 00:45 | danand_ | Photocopy - ok. the version the guide is installing is libgtk-directfb-2.0-dev_2.12.0-1ubuntu3.1_i386.deb (read 3.1) and you have 3. have you seen if you can remove that version? try typing sudo apt-get -s remove libgtk-directfb-2.0-dev. that will just simulate the removal - it won't actually do anything |
| 00:45 | Daniel3 | sudo chown -R $USER:$USER ~/Desktop |
| 00:45 | archman | yo__: just follow the steps |
| 00:45 | Daniel3 | so that is the command |
| 00:45 | yo__ | what steps? |
| 00:46 | Photocopy | prince_jammys: "Help me " and stuff doesnt do anything, the channel is damn near that . |
| 00:46 | archman | yo__: enter lspci -n in terminal |
| 00:46 | yo__ | command not found |
| 00:46 | archman | lspci ? |
| 00:46 | yo__ | yeah. |
| 00:46 | yo__ | Ispci |

| 00:46 | Jangari | anyone know how i can get the bash-completion package? |
| 00:46 | Daniel3 | LjL: Thanks that worked |
| 00:46 | archman | lspci -n, not Ispci |
| 00:46 | archman | L |
| 00:46 | yo__ | yeah |
| 00:46 | yo__ | Ispci -n |
| 00:47 | yo__ | neither of them work |

| 00:47 | archman | wtf.... |
| 00:47 | yo__ | that would help lol |
| 00:47 | yo__ | now it worked lmao |
| 00:47 | yo__ | k what am i looking for? |
| 00:47 | Daniel3 | i did that |
| 00:47 | archman | worked what? |
| 00:47 | yo__ | in lspci -n |
| 00:47 | yo__ | what am i looking for in there? |
| 00:48 | archman | ok |
| 00:48 | archman | wait |
| 00:48 | yo__ | kk |
| 00:48 | danand_ | Photocopy - did the output say it was gonna remove a load of other packages? |
| 00:48 | phuzion | Is defragging necessary on ext3? |
| 00:48 | Photocopy | danand_: you think installing a newer one would work? If i try to install from a deb that has dependencies, it wont seem to recognize if they are installed or not correctly. |
| 00:48 | archman | yo__: you look for your wlan card |
| 00:48 | archman | is there something that starts with 43 |
| 00:48 | archman | ? |
| 00:49 | Photocopy | The following packages will be REMOVED: |

| 00:49 | Photocopy | Remv libgtk-directfb-2.0-dev [2.12.0-1ubuntu3] |
| 00:49 | yo__ | nuthin but a bunch of numbers |
| 00:49 | Daniel3 | thanks for the help guys, later |
| 00:49 | Photocopy | Darnit... Sorry I keep doing that. |
| 00:49 | archman | something like 08:00.0 0280: 14e4:4311 (rev 01) |
| 00:49 | archman | ? |
| 00:49 | yo__ | i see 14e4:4311 |
| 00:49 | yo__ | yeah |
| 00:49 | archman | OK |
| 00:49 | archman | so you have the same card as me |
| 00:49 | archman | =) |
| 00:50 | yo__ | its 05:00.0 0280: 14e4:4311 (rev 01) |
| 00:50 | danand_ | Photocopy - ok that seems ok. afterwards you can install the new libgtk-directfb-2.0-dev (3.1) version with dpkg. |
| 00:50 | yo__ | what do i do with it? |
| 00:50 | yo__ | where do i go from here actually |
| 00:50 | archman | look, bcm4311 works very good with ndiswrapper |
| 00:50 | Photocopy | danand_: Somehow I don't expect it to work... does it have dependencies? What do I do now? |
| 00:50 | yo__ | when i do iwconfig |
| 00:50 | yo__ | lo and eth0 say no wireless extensions |
| 00:50 | Photocopy | danand_: Nevermind, this is going to take forever and I dont have time. |
| 00:51 | yo__ | and eth1 says all kinds of information including ESSID:off/any |
| 00:51 | archman | it's like an emulator which uses windows drivers for bcm4311 |
| 00:51 | yo__ | ndiswrapper isn't working right |
| 00:51 | yo__ | unless im doing that wrong |
| 00:51 | archman | you can make it work |
| 00:51 | yo__ | how do i do that? |
| 00:51 | yo__ | how? lol |
| 00:51 | danand_ | Photocopy - k. your probably right - that guide seemed quite involved.. if you feel like giving it a shot another time .... |
| 00:52 | archman | first you need to blacklist native driver for bcm43xx |
| 00:52 | J-a-K-e | is anyone able to help me setup a lowpass filter through alsa |
| 00:52 | archman | echo 'blacklist bcm43xx' | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist |
| 00:52 | yo__ | where do i get that from |
| 00:52 | archman | in terminal |
| 00:52 | archman | echo 'blacklist bcm43xx' | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist |
| 00:52 | yo__ | k h/o |
| 00:52 | J-a-K-e | im following the guide but having some trouble |
| 00:52 | archman | ???? |
| 00:52 | yo__ | hold on |
| 00:52 | bosanac | a |
| 00:52 | Photocopy | danand_: I had no actual intention to use the distro like that, i wanted to see how far i could get it to look like another OS... I think my installation is messed up anyway lol. |

| 00:53 | Jangari | uninstall it and re-install it, Jahromeo, it was buggy up until about 12 days ago |
| 00:53 | Photocopy | danand_: Nope, I was just seeing how customizable gnome was. |
| 00:53 | mysterycool | i am trying to record my desktop with that xvid thingy but I cannot record the sound |
| 00:54 | mysterycool | I mean I have set it to record sound but it wont record the sound too :S |
| 00:54 | Photocopy | danand_: I would never buy a mac... Its a unix-based OS that is not free... Why would I do it? |

| 01:01 | mysterycool | i am trying to record my desktop with xvid but the sound wont be recorded. help plz :( |
| 01:01 | danand_ | archman - if he does an apt-get -s install blahblah it will tell him what packages he needs to download |
| 01:01 | prince_jammys | jaderaven: don't they have directions at their website? |
| 01:01 | tmcfulton | erisco: audacity, if you feel like editing |
| 01:01 | danand_ | Anyone else here in the london area? |
| * daedra smacks mrpockets |
| 01:01 | erisco | tmcfulton, all I want to do is play both on top of each other, 50/50 |
| 01:01 | jaderaven | prince_jammys: im sure they do, but i think they expect me to know how to use linux... :P |
| 01:01 | archman | danand_: he can't go online !!! |
| 01:01 | mrpockets | i kid, i kid. |
| 01:01 | odinsbane | dang I still don't get video |
| 01:01 | Pelo | jaderaven, http://cutlersoftware.com/ubuntuinstall/ |
| 01:02 | tmcfulton | erisco: sudo apt-get install audacity |
| 01:02 | jeffMASTERflex | erisco: if you want to mix them together there is a program called mixx |
| 01:02 | tmcfulton | listen to him' |
| 01:02 | yo__ | k thats don |
| 01:02 | prince_jammys | daedra: success? |
| 01:02 | yo__ | done** |
| 01:02 | archman | wait a sec |
| 01:02 | daedra | prince_jammys: yeah, changed fat32 to vfat, mkdir /mnt/sda3 |
| 01:02 | daedra | IT WORKED |
| 01:02 | danand_ | archman - yes i know, but if he runs that command on his ubuntu box it will give him the list of packages he needs to get with his windows box |
| 01:02 | archman | dl stable 1.52 http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=93482 |
| 01:02 | prince_jammys | daedra: oh oops, i didn't notice but yeah, vfat |
| 01:02 | rrm | hi everyone... |
| 01:02 | Triston | Anyone have any idea why in Ubuntu I have to go into terminal and run "modprobe ndiswrapper" everytime I boot to get network access? |
| 01:03 | erisco | jeffMASTERflex, not mix, play on top of each other |
| === ka2zzzz is now known as ka2u |
| 01:03 | yo__ | archman? |
| 01:03 | archman | danand_: he didn't mentioned he has any resolved deps |
| 01:03 | archman | yea |
| 01:03 | Pelo | Triston, because you didn'T had it to autostart |
| 01:03 | jeffMASTERflex | erisco: yes, it will play them on top of each other. it's a djing app |
| 01:03 | illmortal | Does anyone know what's better, RGB or YUV? |
| 01:03 | yo__ | what next? |
| 01:03 | yo__ | after ndisk |
| 01:03 | cherwin | Triston: add "modprobe ndiswrapper" to /etc/rc.local |
| 01:03 | Pelo | Triston, menu > system |
| 01:03 | jaderaven | okay there is a cpg a .tgz and a few .rpm's how would i go about installing that? |
| 01:03 | erisco | jeffMASTERflex, I will give mixxx a try then |
| 01:03 | archman | you downloaded ndiswrapper source? |
| 01:03 | amenado | illmortal-> what are you referring to? |
| 01:03 | danand_ | Triston - add the line ndiswrapper to /etc/modules. |
| 01:03 | illmortal | PS3+Linux |
| 01:04 | yo__ | the first three you told me to do are done |
| 01:04 | illmortal | In terms of performance and colors |
| 01:04 | xxBasYxx | im looking for some flash swf editor or studio, is there anythig for ubun? |
| 01:04 | archman | now dl stable 1.52 http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=93482 |
| 01:04 | amenado | illmortal-> thats new to me, YUV means? |
| 01:05 | Pelo | xxBasYxx, someting called convertit will comvert it to avi or mpg and you can then edit with avidemux would that be to your liking ? |
| 01:05 | mysterycool | hey |
| 01:05 | erisco | jeffMASTERflex, doesn't even start up for me |
| 01:05 | danand_ | cherwin - the file /etc/modules is specifically for auto loading of required modules at boot time |
| 01:05 | yo__ | downloading right now |
| 01:05 | cherwin | Triston: the solution of danand_ is the best one |
| 01:05 | mysterycool | how can I open a rar archive? |
| 01:05 | jeffMASTERflex | erisco: starts up fine here |
| 01:05 | yo__ | with WINrar |
| 01:05 | amenado | jaderaven-> where did you get these? what are they for? |
| 01:05 | daedra | mysterycool: apt-get unrar |
| 01:05 | jaderaven | cedega |
| 01:05 | Triston | Thanks everyone, doing as suggested now. |
| 01:05 | Pelo | mysterycool, sudo apt-get install unrar and then right click xtract here |
| 01:05 | archman | when downloaded extract it on desktop on your ubuntu system |
| 01:05 | jaderaven | amenado: its for cedage |
| 01:05 | mysterycool | oh k |
| 01:05 | yo__ | k |
| 01:05 | jaderaven | cedega* |
| 01:05 | prince_jammys | jaderaven: they don't have a .deb file? |
| 01:05 | jaderaven | doesnt look like it |
| 01:06 | Pelo | jaderaven, did you look at the link I sent you , it explains how to intall on ubuntu , anyting |
| 01:06 | cherwin | danand: yeah i knew that, didn't think about it. Thanks for the tip though |
| 01:06 | erisco | jeffMASTERflex, ah, it was just slow |
| 01:06 | prince_jammys | jaderaven: strange. i just looked at a howto that mentions a .deb file |
| 01:06 | amenado | jaderaven-> .tgz files are source files? then you need to compile them, rpm's are for rpm based system, you may use alien, but some here do not like alien to convert those rpm |
| 01:06 | danand_ | cherwin - np |
| 01:06 | archman | yo__: extracted? |
| 01:06 | chimp | earthquake!!!! |
| 01:06 | prince_jammys | jaderaven: ah. you need to extract the tgz |
| 01:06 | Pelo | jaderaven, there is a #cedega channel |
| 01:06 | illmortal | amenado.. that's the problem i don't know jack crap about YUV. |
| 01:06 | yo__ | k |
| 01:06 | yo__ | yep |
| 01:07 | illmortal | I dunno if that's better than RGB or not... |
| 01:07 | danand_ | chimp - are you in london? |
| 01:07 | archman | open terminal |
| 01:07 | Triston | The other problem I'm having is my system keeps hard locking, which I'm not sure if it's related to my wifi adapter.. I notice it usually happens under lots of internet usage. |
| 01:07 | yo__ | k |
| 01:07 | archman | then cd Desktop |
| 01:07 | yo__ | k |
| 01:07 | jaderaven | Pelo: that site was great, but it only gives those each of those like they were all for a seperate app |
| 01:07 | amenado | illmortal-> on printers the near compliment of RGB are CYMB |
| 01:07 | archman | cd <directory of your extracted ndis> |
| 01:07 | erisco | jeffMASTERflex, I opened them... where is the play button? :s |
| 01:07 | prince_jammys | jaderaven: you said you have a tgz right? |
| 01:07 | yo__ | k |
| 01:08 | archman | sudo |
| 01:08 | archman | make uninstall |
| 01:08 | chimp | manchester danand_ |
| 01:08 | jeffMASTERflex | erisco: upper left and upper right |
| 01:08 | chimp | that was cool |
| 01:08 | yo__ | wait what? |
| 01:08 | danand_ | chimp - i thought i was going mad - i felt that earthquake too - i'm in london |
| 01:08 | erisco | jeffMASTERflex, the right angle brackets? I click them but nothing plays |
| 01:08 | amenado | Triston-> i can vouch for that, wireless things locks up my system on occasions when it attempts to switch ap to associate |
| 01:08 | jaderaven | :prince_jammys yes there is one in there |
| 01:08 | archman | did you sudo? |
| 01:08 | jaderaven | whooops... |
| 01:08 | prince_jammys | jaderaven: double click on it and extract it ... it's a zipped archive |
| 01:08 | yo__ | its says do it a couple more times |
| 01:08 | jeffMASTERflex | erisco: you have to load both channels |
| 01:08 | erisco | jeffMASTERflex, nothing plays and nothing moves |
| 01:08 | yo__ | till there's no more installed files |
| 01:08 | archman | ??? |
| 01:09 | archman | OK oK |
| 01:09 | yo__ | lol |
| 01:09 | lapmag | are Live CDs updated often? My computer takes a while to boot so maybe a new one will fix this? |
| 01:09 | erisco | jeffMASTERflex, I right clicked on the files and specified one for player1 and one for player2 |
| 01:09 | Triston | amenado> Well at least I'm not the only one. I'm tempted to buy the 30 ft of eternet cable I'd need to get internet into my room. |
| 01:09 | archman | is there any files left? |
| 01:09 | erisco | jeffMASTERflex, what did I miss? |
| 01:09 | jeffMASTERflex | erisco: play around with it, definitely works |
| 01:09 | danand_ | chimp - that was surreal! never felt nothing like that before |
| 01:09 | Triston | *ethernet |
| 01:09 | Bossmanbeta | anyone aware of a way to move X apps from a local Xserver to a remote Xserver via ssh? (like 'screen' but for X apps?) There's an old-old app called 'xmove' but it doesn't work, and the research I've done on it shows it to be buggy, but the app had the right idea (detaching a gui-application and reattaching later)... - any thoughts? (VNC and NX are whole-desktop, I'd prefer app-specific) |
| 01:09 | chimp | <chimp> my whole room shook |
| 01:09 | jaderaven | prince_jammys: i extracted it and got 3 folders |
| 01:09 | amenado | Triston-> it is worth it, go get yourself the 30 footer |
| 01:09 | chimp | <Chaosmonkey> no i farted |
| 01:09 | prince_jammys | jaderaven: what's in there? |
| 01:10 | yo__ | how do i change directory back to desktop |
| 01:10 | mN|DarkB-DX | http://www.oneofakindhouse.com/contact.html |
| 01:10 | archman | why you want to do that now? cd .. |
| 01:10 | davmonster | is anyone using vmware server console on ubuntu 7.10 server? |
| 01:10 | danand_ | chimp - yeh - me too - my monitor started rockin and my desklamp shook about.... car alarms galore!! |
| 01:10 | yo__ | nvm |
| 01:10 | davmonster | yo__: cd ~/Desktop |
| 01:10 | komputes | yo__: cd ~/Desktop/ |
| 01:10 | erisco | does anyone know how to work mixxx? |
| 01:10 | danand_ | chimp - what a wierd sensation |
| 01:11 | rrm | hey guys... how could i remove the firefox shortcut on the application luncher... |
| 01:11 | yo__ | its still not uninstalling everything |
| 01:11 | jaderaven | prince_jammys: a bunch of other folders ending up with a few shell scripts at the end |
| 01:11 | archman | ok now make |
| 01:11 | archman | make |
| 01:11 | amenado | Bossmanbeta-> umm your xserver is the display, the app is still running where the sshd(aemon) is, you want to access it from another remote host? |
| 01:11 | komputes | rrm right click |
| 01:11 | yo__ | k |
| 01:11 | danand_ | chimp - gonna check out news 24 |
| 01:11 | prince_jammys | jaderaven: any README files? any .deb files? |
| 01:11 | archman | then make install |
| 01:11 | rrm | i did... but removed the applications |
| 01:11 | archman | if not errors |
| 01:11 | chimp | yeah, should be good danand_ |
| 01:11 | rrm | kinda odd |
| 01:11 | yo__ | its not done with the make command lol |
| 01:11 | archman | o |
| 01:11 | archman | ok |
| 01:11 | komputes | rrm so you want it back? |
| 01:11 | yo__ | intstall error.. |
| 01:12 | rrm | yep |

| 01:12 | komputes | yo__: make takes time, it's compiling |
| 01:12 | chimp | manchester has a lot of earthquajes |
| 01:12 | archman | what's the error? |
| 01:12 | Bossmanbeta | amenado, right, but if I disconnect the ssh -- the X app dies... I can't detach it, like you could with 'screen' for non-gui apps |
| 01:12 | chimp | quakes |
| 01:12 | chimp | small ones |
| 01:12 | icesword | !sound > black_adder |

| 01:13 | dracz | hi. can anyone tell me why some DOS program running in doxbox will say my loopback device is not a valid 1.44" disk? |
| 01:13 | yo__ | permission denied as well |
| 01:13 | amenado | Bossmanbeta-> okay, am curious as well, vnc doesnt solve it for you? or xfrb ? |
| 01:13 | davmonster | Quake 1? |
| 01:13 | komputes | rrm now you want the menu bar |
| 01:13 | milkwood1 | Earthquake |
| 01:13 | prince_jammys | jaderaven: well, something is up.. i'm looking at this link and it's talking about a .deb file. maybe check the site to see if there is one. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Cedega#head-ef048728dd3a8751ca64277052178fdb2ee07184 |
| 01:13 | archman | you need to type sudo in front of every command !!!! |
| 01:13 | komputes | yo__: do it as sudo, put sudo before the command |
| 01:13 | davmonster | an earthquake in the UK? really? |
| 01:14 | yo__ | k |
| 01:14 | milkwood1 | Kid you not |
| 01:14 | soldats | archman: for security you do! |
| 01:14 | macogw | my flash drive has been copying for a while now. it took 2 full minutes to copy 1mb of data. i hope this flash drive isnt about to die too :-/ could being FAT (not FAT32) formatted have anything to do with that? |
| 01:14 | rrm | yeah... that is why i would want... thanks komputers |
| 01:14 | getoo | how can i install mozilla 3.0 |
| 01:14 | komputes | archman: not quire every time, you can type sudo -s to convert to root shell |
| 01:14 | Bossmanbeta | vnc or nxserver are nice, but they're whole-desktop which insists on being in the foreground killing my local desktop ... so I can't run the app as you would ssh -Y ... but then DETACH it so i could reconnec tto it at a later time... |
| 01:14 | milkwood1 | anyone back me up in the UK? |
| 01:14 | davmonster | I'm in the UK |
| 01:14 | chimp | yep |
| 01:14 | chimp | shake shake |

| 01:14 | chimp | hehehe |
| 01:14 | macogw | getoo: firefox-3.0 is the package |
| 01:14 | davmonster | but not near York |
| 01:14 | chimp | was ace |
| 01:14 | chimp | manchester |
| 01:14 | komputes | rrm no prob, that stuff you can usually find on the forums |
| 01:14 | FloodBot1 | chimp: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. |
| 01:14 | getoo | macogw: thanx |
| 01:14 | macogw | getoo: there isnt technically any browser called mozilla anymore |
| 01:14 | odinsbane | peace. |
| 01:14 | illmortal | Anyone know if RGB or YUV is better???? |
| 01:14 | getoo | i meant firefox |
| 01:14 | getoo | sorry |
| 01:14 | macogw | getoo: the mozilla suite is now known as Seamonkey |
| 01:14 | prince_jammys | jaderaven: that's what you want. you shouldn't have to install for rpm file. ubuntu packages typically come in .deb form (debian packages) |
| 01:15 | archman | komputes: that's right |
| 01:15 | milkwood1 | lastest about 10 seconds |
| 01:15 | black_adder | !headphone sound |
| 01:15 | ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about headphone sound - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi |
| 01:15 | komputes | illmortal: for what? |
| 01:15 | davmonster | is anyone running vmware-server on ubuntu? |
| 01:15 | davmonster | :S |
| 01:15 | black_adder | arrrrrg |
| 01:15 | komputes | davmonster: yep |
| 01:15 | yo__ | oi |
| 01:15 | soldats | macogw: probly. it may depend on how fast it can read from FAT. IMO some file systems read faster. |
| 01:15 | yo__ | its not working archman |
| 01:15 | getoo | i would use hardy , it comes with it .. but i get no sound .. some bug |
| 01:15 | archman | yo__: oi |
| === grim76__ is now known as Grim76 |
| 01:15 | danand_ | Triston - np - in all the excitement about the uk's earthquake i forgot what that was about ! |
| 01:15 | archman | why? |
| 01:15 | komputes | yo__: what now? |
| 01:15 | macogw | soldats: im talking about write, not read |
| 01:15 | yo__ | i dunno |
| 01:15 | milkwood1 | danmonster u in UK? |
| 01:15 | black_adder | !headphone |
| 01:15 | ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about headphone - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi |
| 01:15 | Bossmanbeta | amenado, ssh -Y actually is what I like........ but if I lose my connection or if I want to detach the X application, I can;t.... the X application dies with the ssh session (unlike 'screen' which would keep a bash-based application alive by detaching the process) |
| 01:15 | archman | what says? |
| 01:16 | df00z | Hey, I have some hardware that does not work in the .22 driver. I manually upgraded to .24.2, with the kpkg tools. Now, I need to insmod my nvidia driver every reboot, modprobe wont find it |
| 01:16 | davmonster | yep, Kent |
| 01:16 | df00z | Anyone ever run into this? |
| 01:16 | yo__ | alot of errors including no such file or directory |
| 01:16 | macogw | getoo: report the bug about your hardware |
| 01:16 | Triston | danand_ : Haha, no problem! I can understand.. I'm from California, USA.. we get our share of quakes. |
| 01:16 | black_adder | can any one tell me how U activate my headphones in ubuntu ? |
| 01:16 | soldats | macogw: yes i know. it usually has to read to make sure it has enough room for writing to then writes to it if there is enough room |
| 01:16 | milkwood1 | get it? |
| 01:16 | getoo | macogw: bugzilla is loaded with it :X |
| 01:16 | macogw | soldats: oh ok |
| 01:16 | archman | can you paste it on ubuntu pastebin? |

| 01:17 | yo__ | i would.. but the computers not even connected to the net at all |
| 01:17 | black_adder | !help |
| 01:17 | komputes | Bossmanbeta: don't they both do X through ssh? |
| 01:17 | Dr_willis_ | komputes, i belive -Y is faster but less secure. used on local/trusted lans.. (or so i recall in some ssh docs) |
| 01:17 | 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 |
| 01:17 | milkwood1 | feel it |
| 01:17 | Bossmanbeta | komputes, I believe ssh -Y is more secure |
| 01:17 | danand_ | Triston - what a wierd sensation - v low frequency, but you could just feel the _power_ of it. |
| 01:17 | milkwood1 | ? |
| 01:17 | Bossmanbeta | komputes, yes -- byut I think -Y is more secure |
| 01:17 | Dr_willis_ | Bossmanbeta, Less or more? Heh - :) i forget - i guess i will RTFM |
| 01:17 | getoo | macogw: got it now .. i need to install firefox-dev |
| 01:17 | komputes | Dr_willis_: Bossmanbeta More or less ? |
| 01:18 | black_adder | can any one tell me how U activate my headphones in ubuntu ? |
| 01:18 | archman | kopy few last rows from terminal, transfer them in xp |
| 01:18 | Bossmanbeta | Dr_willis, heh! I am still hunting for a solution to this :) |

| 01:18 | Dr_willis_ | komputes, when in doubt - read the ssh docs i guess. :) |
| 01:18 | soldats | komputes: sometimes -X wont allow X forwarding and -Y will so it depends on what system your sshing to |

| 01:18 | Triston | Last question, since I'm not sure the hard lock problem is anything that can be easily fixed.. I have Vista running virtually under innotek VirtualBox so that I can use iTunes and watch Netflix On Demand movies.. when Netflix plays it's video in the browser using it's plugin that uses WMP 11, the video is very choppy. I have high bandwidth and a powerful enough computer, so I don't understand what I'm doing wrong. |
| 01:18 | davmonster | pleeeeeeeaaaase |
| 01:18 | danand_ | milkwood1 - yeh got it on bbc.co.uk - tremors in uk |
| 01:18 | archman | ??? |
| 01:19 | black_adder | !realtek |
| 01:19 | ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about realtek - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi |
| 01:19 | archman | plain lang |
| 01:19 | black_adder | can any one tell me how U activate my headphones in ubuntu ? plz pretty plz |
| 01:19 | milkwood1 | checking |
| 01:19 | prince_jammys | black_adder: did you try the mixer? |
| 01:19 | komputes | soldats: do you know which is more secure between -Y -X? |
| 01:19 | Dr_willis_ | komputes, -Y Enables trusted X11 forwarding. -X Enables X11 forwarding. |
| 01:19 | black_adder | alsa mixer i did |
| 01:19 | Bossmanbeta | komputes, according to the man pages.. -Y allows for trusted X11 fwding |
| 01:19 | kitche | Triston: probably Virtual machines do not have full video power like a normal operating system |
| 01:19 | Dr_willis_ | komputes, from the MAN page.. seemns -Y is more secure |
| 01:19 | Bossmanbeta | komputes, where -X does not. |
| 01:19 | yo__ | the file didn't show up in my sd card that im using for sneaker net.. |
| 01:20 | Dr_willis_ | komputes it pays to RTFM :) |
| 01:20 | amenado | Bossmanbeta-> yeah its seems that xmove is the only alternative |
| 01:20 | komputes | trusted? so it's two fold encryption? |
| 01:20 | yo__ | i have another idea h/o |
| 01:20 | df00z | Hey, I'm on kernel 2.6.24.2, how can I make modprobe find my compiled nvidia driver? |
| 01:20 | danand_ | Triston - virtualbox probably won't give you the performance of a native Vista install |
| 01:20 | archman | cmon |
| 01:20 | Triston | kitche: I came across old forum topics on a few sites where people were doing the same thing and it was working fine. |
| 01:20 | black_adder | @prince jammeys - I tried that but still no luck |
| 01:20 | Bossmanbeta | amenado, Yea -- I researched xmove............ that app is HOPELESS :) (and no longer being worked on... and buggy) |
| 01:20 | Dr_willis_ | komputes, i got confused it said that -x disabled forwarding.. -X enables it.. :) hard to tell the diff from x and X in my console font.. |
| 01:20 | danand_ | Triston - i've found virtualbox to be a bit flakey! |
| 01:20 | Dr_willis_ | danand_, so have I. |
| 01:20 | yo__ | how do i uninstall a package? |
| 01:20 | kitche | Triston: probably using a special driver or something most likely |
| 01:21 | Triston | danand_: It work totally fine except for that one part. :( |
| 01:21 | komputes | Dr_willis_: I have, RTM but I've stated before that I have this condition called manualitis, where large manuals make me his my head on my keyboard |
| 01:21 | archman | what package? |
| 01:21 | yo__ | the old fwcutter.. |
| 01:21 | amenado | Bossmanbeta-> what is it about the program that you must really pass along the session from one connection to another? |
| 01:21 | Starnestommy | yo__: sudo apt-get remove package |
| 01:21 | yo__ | i think its causing problems |
| 01:21 | archman | in synaptics (system --> admin) |
| 01:21 | geirha | df00z: add it to /etc/modules, on a line by itself |
| 01:21 | prince_jammys | black_adder: i really don't know about this sort of thing. all i can think of is turn it up on the mixer, and turn up wave/pcm and see. you probably already did this |
| 01:21 | Bossmanbeta | It would be nice to be able to run a gui-application via SSH, then detach and reattach to it later without the need to bring over a WHOLE desktop to do so .. just as ssh -Y offers (minus detach/reattach capabilities) |
| 01:22 | black_adder | yah prince_jammys I already all that. so where should I look up ? |
| 01:22 | Dellbuntu5102 | hot do i add something to the apt |
| 01:22 | archman | you don't need fwcutter |
| 01:22 | komputes | Bossmanbeta: you mean so that id the connection dies the app doesnt crash/quit |
| 01:22 | df00z | geirha: I did, added "nvidia" |
| 01:22 | Bossmanbeta | amenado, well there are applications that I want to run remotely that are X apps (gui's..) ... some apps I run from the office that I want to access from home without bringing up the whole desktop |
| 01:22 | caleb_yau | when i type $ locate on the shell it doesn't seem to search my Mounted Windows NTFS drive. How can I make that work? |
| 01:22 | Bossmanbeta | komputes, yep .. so when you drop the SSH connection, you can reattach to the X app......... just as you reattach to shells via 'screen' |
| 01:22 | danand_ | Dr_willis_ - tried installing openbsd on it - kept giving segfaults and filesystem full errors - found the workaround eventually in a bug report on the innotek site ... but... not quite what i'd call beta software yet |
| 01:22 | Dellbuntu5102 | I want to install Compiz-Fusion, but I dont know how to add something to the resporties |
| 01:22 | komputes | caleb_yau: not ext3 no journaling |
| 01:23 | prince_jammys | black_adder: it's a weird problem. if noone knows here, try google: ubuntu your-sound-card headphones |
| 01:23 | yo__ | im going to totally remove all packages and reinstall them |
| 01:23 | soldats | Bossmanbeta: you dont need an entire desktop to access the X apps. |
| 01:23 | archman | yo__: can i mail you my howto with drivers so you try it yourself? |
| 01:23 | prince_jammys | black_adder: at least try that in the meantime until someone here knows |
| 01:23 | yo__ | yeah |
| 01:23 | archman | gimme mail |
| 01:23 | TerrorBite | My desktop background changer app seems to be broken. |
| 01:23 | yo__ | wbreslin951@gmail.com |
| 01:23 | Bossmanbeta | soldats, yes I know that.... (ssh -Y) .. however, if I want to kill my ssh session the application I was running remotely dies... and the only way for it to survive a disconnect is to run a whole desktop via VNC or NX |
| 01:24 | black_adder | well i feel invisible here, thanks for the help prince_jammys, i might go on forum at least people answer over there |
| 01:24 | archman | just a min |
| 01:24 | yo__ | k |
| 01:24 | Kira | If I want to use xinetd to start a service on demand, should the service be listed in /etc/services? |
| 01:24 | Dellbuntu5102 | how do i add something to the apt? I want to install Compiz-Fusion, but I dont know how to add something to the resporties. |
| 01:24 | waseidel | good night |
| 01:24 | caleb_yau | komputes im not sure what that means .. is ext3 the hard drive type, and does locate work with journaling? |
| 01:24 | Bossmanbeta | soldats, I'm just looking for a way to detach/reattach to an X application just as you reattach remotely to shells with 'screen' |
| 01:24 | soldats | Bossmanbeta: oh! ok. i see what you mean. my bad sorry for the mistake :) |
| 01:24 | Bossmanbeta | nono soldats it's ok :) |
| 01:24 | komputes | caleb_yau: ntfs support is limited |
| 01:24 | prince_jammys | black_adder: yeah give that a shot. but try googling your problem - i bet you find something |
| 01:25 | milkwood1 | night chaps - gonna try and hit the hay!! |
| 01:25 | Dr_willis_ | i imagine thers not an issued ever asked here.. thats NOT mentioned in a forum post somewhere. |
| 01:25 | Bossmanbeta | soldats, it's annoying to have to bring up a whole desktop... so with vnc, I find myself sizing the desktop to TRIM just around the application ... which kind of gives me the same thing.. but not really |
| 01:25 | caleb_yau | komputes cool, thanks anyway. I'm happy just knowing that there is no way around it, rather than thinking that my mounting is wrong or something |

| 01:25 | Dellbuntu5102 | hello? anybody listening? I'm a beginner and I would help. how do i add something to the apt? I want to install Compiz-Fusion, but I dont know how to add something to the resporties. |
| 01:26 | waseidel | hi, i want to hear music from the radio http://www.radioactiva.com/envivo.asp some body can help me to listen? |
| 01:26 | davmonster | apt-cache search .*compiz.* |
| 01:26 | komputes | caleb_yau: have you tried find |
| 01:26 | black_adder | hello Dellbuntu5102 just open repositiry manager |
| 01:26 | black_adder | and u will see options in thee |
| 01:26 | Dellbuntu5102 | how? |
| 01:26 | Bossmanbeta | since sometimes an SSH connection can be dropped, I don't want the X app dying with it... an ability to detach it with an X style version of 'screen' would be very cool indeed |
| 01:26 | black_adder | go to prefereces i guess |
| 01:26 | bruenig | why not just do apt-cache search compiz if you are going to do it that way? |
| 01:26 | black_adder | and then synaptic packgae manager |
| 01:26 | komputes | caleb_yau: find /media/thenameofyourntfsdrive -name "searchterm" |
| 01:26 | soldats | Bossmanbeta: normally using -X in ssh does the trick for a single app. i really havent had the time to experiment with -Y so i assume your right. |
| 01:26 | yo__ | what the heck? |
| 01:26 | df00z | where does ubuntu hide the nvidia.ko module |
| 01:26 | df00z | its not in /lib/modules |
| 01:26 | danand_ | Dellbuntu5102 - in all likelyhood you can just type sudo apt-get install compiz-fusion in a terminal |
| 01:26 | Dellbuntu5102 | how do i add it???? |
| 01:27 | Dellbuntu5102 | oh |
| 01:27 | bruenig | df00z: dpkg -L packagename lists the files in a package |
| 01:27 | TerrorBite | terrorbite@gimli:~$ gnome-appearance-properties |

| 01:27 | yo__ | a little bandaid looking thing popped up over my installation window? what is it? |
| 01:27 | Bossmanbeta | soldats, well whether you do -X or -Y, if the ssh session dies, so does the application |
| 01:27 | TerrorBite | ...what? |
| 01:27 | caleb_yau | komputes I did but I don't pretend to know how to use it. I typed $ find libgcc.a and what came up was libgcc.a no folder name or anything |
| 01:27 | Dellbuntu5102 | thank you. |
| 01:27 | waseidel | hi |
| 01:27 | waseidel | some help? |

| 01:27 | davidthedrake | Can someone tell me what settings I need to change so a game that is running 640x480 in Wine, will stretch to fill my widescreen? |
| 01:27 | yo__ | k thanks |
| 01:27 | davidthedrake | As it is, the bottom is just cut off. |
| 01:27 | komputes | caleb_yau: you have to put -name "libgcc.a" |
| 01:28 | Dellbuntu5102 | what password do i enter? |
| 01:28 | archman | yo__: welcome |
| 01:28 | Bossmanbeta | ... I even tried running a remote gnome-session ......... but that gives me way too much .. kind of like what VNC or NX does... |
| 01:28 | soldats | Bossmanbeta: yea but you can detach it and reattach it from another box. but lets drop it. i agree with you. i dont want to flood the chan. :) |
| 01:28 | Starnestommy | Dellbuntu5102: your user's password? |
| 01:28 | waseidel | bye thanks for not to help me... |
| 01:28 | Dellbuntu5102 | oh. ty |
| 01:28 | catmistake | any one ever set up a streaming server? I just got Darwin Streaming Server running... but not working. There's gotta be a better way. Any other recommendations? |
| 01:28 | df00z | Ah ok |
| 01:28 | df00z | restricted modules is making it act weird |
| 01:28 | df00z | thanks |
| 01:28 | geirha | caleb_yau: locate searches through a database that is updated with "all" files and directories once a day, though /media amongst others, are ignored |
| 01:29 | caleb_yau | komputes that worked perfectly, thanks alot! |
| 01:29 | Bossmanbeta | soldats, no you can detach the SHELL... but if you were to run like "gedit" or "firefox" remotely using SSH -X or -Y, and kill the ssh session... gedit or firefox will die too... you cannot detach the X-application .. just the shell.... try it :) |
| 01:29 | geirha | caleb_yau: $ man updatedb # then edit /etc/updatedb.conf |
| 01:29 | df00z | Thanks much. Now I have working hardware. Bonsai!! |
| 01:30 | archman | Pelo: ??? |
| 01:30 | Dr_willis_ | Hmm.. What was the name of that app - that let you get wallpaper and things from gnome-look.org ? I saw it once in my menus.. but cant find it now. |
| 01:30 | excalibas | hello, sometimes i cant connect to wireless networks, when this happens i see a new network device called wlan0:avahi the only way i know to fix this is restart and pray, can someone point me to where can i learn about this avahi? or how can i fix this please? |
| 01:30 | caleb_yau | hmmm updatedb doesnt have a man page |
| 01:30 | TerrorBite | ugh. Firefox hates compiz |
| 01:30 | soldats | Bossmanbeta: ahh i get it since screen runs from a shell and if you invoke an X app after you detach it it cant find its borders or display type so it will fail :) gotcha |
| 01:30 | Bossmanbeta | soldats, also I doubt you'd flood the channel -- it's a discussion :) |
| 01:30 | komputes | geirha: can you run updatedb on an ntfs drive?? |
| 01:30 | Dr_willis_ | Bossmanbeta, use the nohup command, and they may survive. |
| 01:30 | caleb_yau | geirha hmmm updatedb doesnt have a man page |
| 01:30 | adamb | ok so I set a cron in my root cron, but it never seems to run, I restart anacron and cron, what else can i check guys? |
| 01:31 | TerrorBite | I'm having issues with gnome-appearance-properties |
| 01:31 | archman | Pelo: in order to word, ndis has to be installed from source; i know for ndis deb, babe |
| 01:31 | prince_jammys | caleb_yau: info updatedb |
| 01:31 | Bossmanbeta | Dr_willis, ah ha!!! nohup doesn't work either :) |
| 01:31 | davmonster | check your mail |
| 01:31 | Dr_willis_ | komputes, the locate database has a setting file that dictates what filesystems it scans. |
| 01:31 | davmonster | adamb: check your mail, error messages from cron are mailed to you by default |
| 01:31 | geirha | komputes: I don't see why not, it just stores path names in a database |
| 01:31 | caleb_yau | prince_jammys thanks, i feel stupid now |
| 01:31 | Dr_willis_ | Bossmanbeta, this is why i tend to use vnc. :) and a uber-micro window manager. |
| 01:31 | Bianconeri | hello does anybody know what's the icon theme on this screen shot? http://camelsnowman.deviantart.com/art/Gentoo-46513644 |
| 01:31 | yo__ | how do i install a driver using windows wireless drivers utility? |
| 01:31 | caleb_yau | prince_jammys :) |
| 01:31 | prince_jammys | caleb_yau: why? :) |
| 01:31 | geirha | caleb_yau: that's odd, I have it ... though I'm on edgy |
| 01:32 | prince_jammys | geirha: it has an info page |
| 01:32 | TerrorBite | Bossmanbeta, Dr_willis_, an X app will usually die if its connection to the X server is severed. |
| 01:32 | Bossmanbeta | Dr_willis, vnc is very nice ... but since I run apps local and remote... I find myself sizing the VNC session to trim-around the application I'm running over VNC so I can continue to work on my local desktop |
| 01:32 | archman | click no install driver and insert .inf file |
| 01:32 | prince_jammys | geirha: caleb_yau actually mine does have a man page in addition to an info page |
| 01:32 | Bossmanbeta | ...which is why I was hoping to find a viable 'screen' program, but for X apps |
| 01:32 | yo__ | whats the inf file i need? |
| 01:32 | yo__ | where do i get it |
| 01:33 | Dr_willis_ | Bossmanbeta, other then the one youmentioned yesterday. ive never seen such a tool that worked well. |
| 01:33 | archman | yo__: god... it's in your mail, i mailed it to you... |
| 01:33 | Bossmanbeta | Dr_willis, yea xmove works about as well as something that doesn't... work ... well.. |
| 01:33 | yo__ | it hasn't showed up |
| 01:33 | archman | it's the bcmwl5.inf |
| === jhonen is now known as KaiserM |
| 01:33 | komputes | Hey would you know how I can scale a VNC connection window? |
| 01:33 | Bossmanbeta | that's ok -- my search continues! :) |
| 01:33 | amenado | Bossmanbeta-> can you not establish a gnome-session with minimal program running specifically the only one you are interested in? |
| 01:34 | komputes | Bossmanbeta: ^ |
| 01:34 | TerrorBite | Bossmanbeta, I think it's possible to set up vnc to show just a single window rather than the whole desktop |
| 01:34 | Solmaze | Okay , I've got a general newbie question |
| 01:34 | soldats | sorry ill ask onece because..... what file does xclipboard write/read from for copy and paste. im not sure if it writes directly to the app itself or a file the app reads from? |
| 01:34 | prince_jammys | Solmaze: let's hear it |
| 01:34 | TerrorBite | I'm having issues with gnome-appearance-properties |
| 01:34 | Solmaze | I need to change a "config.xml" file - but aparrently I dont have "root" rights - or something along those lines. |
| 01:34 | TerrorBite | it wants to run kde-config |
| 01:34 | Solmaze | change = edit |
| 01:34 | TerrorBite | which doesn't exist |
| 01:34 | yo__ | if i have the source code, do i put it in notepad and save it as an inf file? |
| 01:34 | archman | yo__: should i try to put it in archive and send it again? |
| 01:34 | komputes | soldats: the copy paste in ubuntu is kind of tricky, many layers |
| 01:34 | Solmaze | I'm pretty new to Linux - and have no idea how to get those rights =P |
| 01:34 | yo__ | yeah |
| 01:34 | amenado | Solmaze-> for which webapp server? |
| 01:35 | archman | kk |
| 01:35 | Bossmanbeta | amenado, gnome-session will die also ... any app that I run AFTER I launch the gnome-session will die.. the only ones that would survive are the ones I ran from the gnome-desktop on the other end |
| 01:35 | yo__ | wbreslin951@gmail.com |
| 01:35 | Bossmanbeta | and they reintiialize too ... so.. |
| 01:35 | euler_fan | Solmaze: sudo nano /path/to/file/ should do it. |
| 01:35 | Solmaze | Oh, its a local file. |
| 01:35 | prince_jammys | Solmaze: you're going to ave to use sudo. do sudo nano path/to/file |
| 01:35 | pcmax_ | sysinfo |
| 01:35 | soldats | komputes: yea i know, i just want all the steps involved |
| 01:35 | Solmaze | Gonna try that, one sec |
| 01:35 | Bossmanbeta | TerrorBite, wonder how you could tell VNC to stream 1 application, like ssh -Y does? |
| 01:35 | prince_jammys | Solmaze: or gksudo gedit /path/to/file to do it in a window |
| 01:35 | excalibas | hello, sometimes i cant connect to wireless networks, when this happens i see a new network device called wlan0:avahi the only way i know to fix this is restart and pray, (when things work there is no wlan0:avahi.) Can someone point me to where can i learn about this avahi? or how can i fix this please? |
| 01:35 | komputes | Solmaze: if you select something it is in a a kind of clip board that pastes on shift-insert on the two mouse buttons together, then there ctrlC and ctrlV |
| 01:36 | TerrorBite | Bossmanbeta, something to do with the VNC server |
| 01:36 | amenado | Bossmanbeta-> doesnt gnome-session have some capabilities to restore last time you were logged on? |
| 01:36 | danand_ | chimp - check out http://earthquake.usgs.gov/eqcenter/recenteqsww/Quakes/quakes_all.php |
| 01:36 | Solmaze | Hrm, I think this will work - just sort of anoying that I can't do it from gedit for instance. |
| 01:36 | prince_jammys | Solmaze: the sudo command gives you root privileges, and "nano" is a command-line text editor. "gedit" is a GUI text editor |
| 01:36 | danand_ | chimp - 4.7 magnitude!! |
| 01:36 | komputes | soldats: I'm not sure but most people end up using glipper |
| 01:36 | caleb_yau | prince_jammys, geirha, thats pretty weird that they would specifically exclude /media. Thanks alot i'm sure that will fix the problem |
| 01:37 | Bossmanbeta | amenado, I cannot launch an application if I run gnome-session |
| 01:37 | Bossmanbeta | amenado, I can only see apps already running int he gnome-session |
| 01:37 | prince_jammys | caleb_yau: i missed what the problem was, but i'm glad it's resolved. remember you can always use "find" otherwise |
| 01:37 | archman | yo__: i can't send it by some reason, im gonna find the link for u to dl |
| 01:37 | yo__ | kk |
| 01:37 | yo__ | for some reason the prgram isnt working to add the driver.. |
| 01:38 | yo__ | it won't add the file to its list |
| 01:38 | amenado | Bossmanbeta-> boy you got a tuff one there...once you got a solution let us know too, for reference purposes |
| 01:38 | soldats | komputes: kk i posted a thread on the forums, ill just wait till its answered. im trying to make "screen" write/read from clipboard. |
| 01:38 | archman | u have bcmwl5.inf??? |
| 01:38 | ePeppr | Quick RSS Question. |
| 01:38 | Bossmanbeta | amenado, you know it ... I tried gnome-sessio via ssh -Y ... but all i get are the already-running apps off the pre-existing gnome-session on the ssh server side... I can't launch an app |
| 01:38 | yo__ | i dunno |
| 01:39 | yo__ | i found the source code on the internet |
| 01:39 | ePeppr | the node <pubDate> in RSS 2.0, is there a way for it handle French dates?? |
| 01:39 | Bossmanbeta | amenado, I am definitely researching it though... just for the intellectual curiosity ... vnc really does the job if I trim it down to the application-borders... but I thought a more elegant solution existed |
| 01:39 | yo__ | archman |
| 01:39 | caleb_yau | thanks komputes as well |
| 01:39 | ePeppr | I know that it uses RFC 852, which is only English, |
| 01:39 | archman | yo__: the other way is to use fwcutter to extract the inf and sys from original exe |
| 01:39 | komputes | caleb_yau: cool |
| 01:40 | archman | from the xp driver |
| 01:40 | ePeppr | but is there a way to make the RSS clients display the dates in French even if the client is chose English as his/her language |
| 01:40 | yo__ | how do you do that? |

| 01:41 | amenado | Bossmanbeta-> just an idea, something like you forward an X with allowance for any host to connect to the forwarded port, and you can connect in one, from another, log off of one, ..i think its the gateway option on ssh..but i have not tried it myself |

| 01:42 | yo__ | thanks bro |
| 01:42 | aimchanger | clear |
| 01:42 | archman | there are maaany tutorials on this topic |
| 01:42 | Bossmanbeta | amenado, ... hmm...... I'll have to research that, but I don't think 1 app could be propagated to multiple Xservers simultaneously ... (nevermind the security risk of that) -- but a creative suggestion... (making a note) |

| 01:43 | Bossmanbeta | amenado, I am actually amazed that more people who use ssh -Y don't ask for a way to detach the application, if anything, to ensure application-survivability from a disconnect |

| 01:43 | amenado | Bossmanbeta-> i was thinking in terms of those warnings they say about X that can be monitored (so it is unsecure), therefore I assume several host can listen in on the X broadcast.. |
| 01:43 | excalibas | hello, sometimes i cant connect to wireless networks, when this happens i see a new network device called wlan0:avahi the only way i know to fix this is restart and pray, (when things work there is no wlan0:avahi.) Can someone point me to where can i learn about this avahi? or how can i fix this please? |
| 01:44 | RoC_MasterMind | maybe I am missing a GPG key? |
| 01:44 | appyJack | any iptables masters here ? |
| 01:44 | Bossmanbeta | amenado, yea... I do wonder though, in that scenario, if the application were not broadcasting to at least 1 Xserver, would it die? (probably) so for it to work, I'd have to have 2 clients connecting to it at all times, so if (1) dies, (2) takes over... |

| 01:46 | ePeppr | Anyone going to take a stab at my RSS Question?? |
| 01:46 | RoC_MasterMind | Anybody have failed upgrade from 7.04 to 7.10? |
| 01:47 | amenado | Bossmanbeta-> how about one that kind of loop to itself? and you somehow can listen in to same port..just idea thats all, not sure if doable |
| 01:47 | Bossmanbeta | amenado, not sure how that would be done .... |
| 01:47 | rrm | hi guys... thanks for the help komputer... i figure it out in the end... all better and no need for the upper bar thanks |
| 01:47 | amenado | appyJack-> sure, paste it in pastebin, and lets see if i can assist.. |
| 01:48 | Solmaze | okay tried what you said, problem now is - to save the changes! |

| 01:50 | evil_tech | i cant find a good how to on how to create a net install server anyone have links? |
| 01:50 | Solmaze | How do I save once I've made changes with the nano thing =) |
| 01:50 | Bossmanbeta | amenado, honestly, I think ANYONE using ssh -Y regularly, would eventually realize they have a need to detach/reattach to those X apps for survivability without resorting to vnc-over-ssh which to me is overkill (not to mention sluggish) |
| 01:50 | NB2000 | CTL X |

| 01:55 | danand_ | TheLastDodo - in uk, about 15 miles NE of lincoln. I felt it in london |
| 01:55 | AndrewB | TheLastDodo: off-topic but England [quite a large range] |
| 01:55 | Dr_willis_ | komputes, thats normally a feature of the vnc CLIENT - from what ive seen. some can doit. some cant |
| 01:55 | appyJack | amenado: hrmm - that would probably be the case if i weren't a paranoid schizo ... or just fat-fingered my furst ruleset |

| 01:56 | TheLastDodo | I don't think I've felt an earthquake in over a decade, and that's having lived in California, Italy and Japan. |
| 01:56 | Jamesrs | anybody else feel http://digg.com/world_news/BREAKING_Earthquake_hits_England in the UK? :o |
| * TheLastDodo shrugs it of. |
| 01:56 | Jamesrs | aha, maybe ;p |
| 01:56 | Dr_willis_ | komputes, under windows 'ultravnc' :) other then that. I dont use the clients much under linux. |
| 01:56 | TheLastDodo | off* |
| 01:56 | appyJack | amenado:its part google, part reading, part firewall engineers at work... and a bit of guesswork |
| 01:56 | Dr_willis_ | komputes, gnome and kde both have their own client. that has more features then the normal vncviewer app. |
| 01:56 | komputes | Dr_willis_: what do you use for remote? |
| 01:57 | amenado | appyJack-> knowing that ubuntu is fairly safe, and you dont really use a new installed box for anything extremely important, i guess you can take a bit of risk, til you get the hang of it |
| 01:57 | danand_ | Jamesrs - yes, my whole room shook, monitor and desklamp rocked, car alarms going off etc |
| 01:57 | usser | komputes: what's the system you connecting from? windows? |
| 01:57 | komputes | ubuntu,both sides |
| 01:57 | Jamesrs | i thought it was our heating exploding, since my radiator has been making an awful noise all night ;p |
| 01:57 | Bossmanbeta | I'll be going AFK to watch the Obama/Clinton debate.... be back later |
| 01:57 | dellph | hello ppl. |
| 01:57 | TheLastDodo | It wasn't even a 5, nothing to worry about. |
| 01:57 | komputes | usser: ^ |
| 01:57 | usser | komputes: use ssh with -X -C flags |
| 01:58 | dellph | is there any tool in ubuntu like cpau? |
| 01:58 | komputes | usser: and theeen? |
| * RedHeron wants to watch the debate, Bossmanbeta. |
| * RedHeron doesn't have a television. |
| 01:58 | usser | komputes: ie install openssh-server on a server machine |
| 01:58 | appyJack | amenado: probably so; i'm not inventing new science with this - just dev work, mostly. Although I do some work from home on it, which can be a bit sensitive |
| 01:58 | danand_ | Jamesrs - :) i thought a _big_ lorry had just gone past the house :D |
| 01:58 | Bossmanbeta | RedHeron, it's like watching a boxing match :) |
| 01:58 | ppppp | yo, im trying to install ubuntu on a buddies comp and im booting from the cd but when I try to run the install from the icon on the workspace nothing is happening... |
| 01:58 | usser | komputes: and then try ssh -X -C username@serverip |
| 01:58 | Dr_willis_ | komputes, i only use vnc under windows to get to the vncserver on the linux box. using the vnc4server on linux. |
| 01:59 | amenado | appyJack-> here I think is the critical part.. -A OUTPUT -m state --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT new connection from you will never get out |
| 01:59 | RedHeron | Bossmanbeta: I know... but they have smiles on their faces. |
| 01:59 | usser | komputes: after that you should be able to run Gui apps that are located on the server inside your client |
| 01:59 | ppppp | anyone trying to 1v1 chat with me and quickie troubleshoot? |
| 01:59 | TheLastDodo | Bossmanbeta: I beg to differ. Watching Parliament is like watching a boxing match (often an amusing one)...these people are amateurs. |
| 01:59 | Bossmanbeta | RedHeron, i know!! :) ok going AFK |
| 01:59 | komputes | ha, yes very nice, but i want the desktop |
| 01:59 | sandy37 | ppppp, ya what is your ram size |
| 01:59 | drpcken | ppppp, have you got a partition setup where you want to put the install? |
| 01:59 | ppppp | windowsxp > boot from cd > install > nothing happening |
| 01:59 | ppppp | yes and no |
| 01:59 | danand_ | TheLastDodo - wasn't too bad ... just i'm used to having my view of the earth as a solid thing intact! |
| 01:59 | ppppp | i cant format the c drive |
| 02:00 | usser | komputes: as in shared desktop? see what's on the screen at the moment? |
| 02:00 | ppppp | im not used to the linux install, on the windows disc I can format before I install |
| 02:00 | Digital_Pioneer | Is there a shell command to see your current version of Ubuntu? And I don't mean kernel version. :) |
| 02:00 | komputes | usser: correct sir |
| 02:00 | appyJack | amenado: doesn't that say to accept all output ? (or am i reading it wrong) |
| 02:00 | luciddr34m3r | Hey, having a slight problem with a new install of Gutsy. Whenever I visit a page with Java on it, the browser hangs until i force quit it. I have had problems in the past with the default java plugin, so I install a different one, but this time it didnt give me a choice. Any idea how to keep FF from hanging/crashing when a java app loads? |
| 02:00 | aimchanger | pppp: you can use the partition manager on the Live CD for formatting purposes |
| 02:00 | usser | komputes: in that case vnc is probably the easiest solution |
| 02:00 | ppppp | how? |
| 02:00 | ppppp | run the cd in windows? |
| 02:01 | komputes | usser: I know,I just want to kno which client lets me scale |
| 02:01 | usser | komputes: use vino, that's what the server called in gnome I believe |
| 02:01 | amenado | appyJack-> nope, only RELATED and ESTABLISH so NEW are discarded via default drop policy |
| 02:01 | TheLastDodo | danand_: fair enough. Having grown up with them, I'm used to the earth shaking once in a while. After all, it's hardly as dangerous or frequent as the storms/hurricanes/monsoon flooding that many places put up with on a yearly basis. |
| 02:01 | ppppp | I didnt see any options on the cd other than mozilla etc |
| 02:01 | icesword | ppppp, qqqqq |
| 02:01 | aimchanger | ppppp: download a .ISO, burn it to CD, then Boot from the CD |
| 02:01 | Krumar | hey, i have volume keys on my keyboard, but they decided to map themselves to the mic volume, how do i get them to PCM? |
| 02:01 | komputes | usser: I have it, i need to scale the window |
| 02:01 | ppppp | i did |
| 02:01 | appyJack | amenado:Aah - Right! so, simply by adding the NEW state, that would probably help quite a bit |
| 02:01 | aimchanger | so you're in the Ubuntu GUI on the CD? |
| 02:01 | scjp_ | is it easy to install ubuntu on apple macbook |
| 02:01 | ppppp | i have the iso burnt to a cd, and have tried booting and installing from the ubuntu enviroment 20times now |
| 02:02 | danand_ | TheLastDodo - true.... you'll have to excuse my excitement though!! :P |
| 02:02 | ATLANT3AN22 | funny thing is, the GUI install has never worked for me |
| 02:02 | ATLANT3AN22 | ive always used the alternate CD |
| 02:02 | aimchanger | ppp: what happens when you try to install? |
| 02:02 | usser | komputes: pretty much any client should support it, theres xvncviewer, tightvnc |
| 02:02 | drpcken | ppppp, yes you'll need to burn the iso to a cd, boot off it, then setup your partition, sorry i didn't realize you had booted into windows |
| 02:02 | amenado | appyJack-> try it, no one gets good at using iptables without trial and error |
| 02:02 | ppppp | nothing, administration window for something shows in the taskbar but then nothing |
| 02:02 | ATLANT3AN22 | heres a question of my own for you guys |
| 02:02 | komputes | usser: I have it, i need to scale the window? |
| 02:02 | ATLANT3AN22 | is there an application on linux like a windows firewall that prompts you at every connection outbound |
| 02:02 | aimchanger | ppppp: Isn't there an "Install" icon on the desktop? |
| 02:02 | ppppp | the comp im trying to install this on sucks, but is there no way I can format and do a clean ubuntu install? |
| 02:03 | appyJack | amenado:how well i know that. I had to pry my way back into the box a few times with some of my 'experiments' ... but its worth it |
| 02:03 | komputes | usser: do they have GUI |
| 02:03 | ppppp | ya thats what im spamming on lol |
| 02:03 | sandy37 | ppppp,you need to restart your system run live cd |
| 02:03 | Condoulo | Is there a good partition manager besides gparted? |
| 02:03 | TheLastDodo | danand_: Do make sure to watch out for the mole people that come up through the cracks in the earth in the weeks ahead. We're used to dealing with them, so they're really just an annoyance, but if you don't carry an axe or some sort of weapon, I can see how they might be a problem. |
| 02:03 | Dr_willis_ | ATLANT3AN22, Linux firewalling dosent work that way. So no, i dont think there is. |
| 02:03 | usser | komputes: hang on |
| 02:03 | aimchanger | sandy: He did that, hes having trouble going thru the install process |
| 02:03 | aimchanger | I think.. |
| 02:03 | ppppp | ur right |
| 02:03 | ATLANT3AN22 | why not dr_willis, why cant a connection be stopped and then allowed/denied |
| 02:03 | ATLANT3AN22 | I am sure when i used something it did tell me to allow or deny |
| 02:04 | ATLANT3AN22 | i remember NTP update, i had to allow it |
| 02:04 | aimchanger | pppp: So how far in the wizard do you get? |
| 02:04 | yo___ | i need help setting up a broadcom wireless 43xx series card in ubuntu |
| 02:04 | ATLANT3AN22 | for it to go out to the servers |
| 02:04 | ppppp | can i format and install on an empty parition |
| 02:04 | Digital_Pioneer | ATLANT3AN22: Why would you want to? You'd get almost as many security alerts as in vi$ta. |
| 02:04 | ppppp | im used to windows being able to do that right before the install |
| 02:04 | sandy37 | aimchanger, i think he has ram problem , what is the size of ram |
| 02:04 | drpcken | ppppp, once you burn the ubuntu cd, when you boot, it will let you format and partition your drive(s) |
| 02:04 | aimchanger | yo____: I just did that! Google it for a tutorial. I'll try to find the one that worked for me |
| 02:04 | Dr_willis_ | ATLANT3AN22, linux firewaling blocks based on PORT# and otehr info. not the app doing the calling/connection. |
| 02:04 | ppppp | what option is that drpcken? |
| 02:04 | jvai | he can use firestarter frontend to iptables, & leave it open in the notification area |
| 02:04 | yo___ | kk |
| 02:04 | usser | komputes: can't you use terminal server client |
| 02:04 | yo___ | thans aim |
| 02:04 | yo___ | thanks** |
| 02:04 | ATLANT3AN22 | so you have no real outbound control then |
| 02:05 | drpcken | ppppp, its not an option, you downloaded the Ubuntu cd, right? |
| 02:05 | ppppp | ya |
| 02:05 | ATLANT3AN22 | unless you hard code it into iptables etc or use a front end GUI to do it |
| 02:05 | appyJack | amenado: so simple, yet so far-reaching... I really appreciate your looking at that! |
| 02:05 | usser | komputes: its in applications->internet->terminal server client |
| 02:05 | aimchanger | ppppp: There's a wizard on the Live CD that takes you through everything... It will format it for you too |
| 02:05 | komputes | usser: no scaling for the window |
| 02:05 | sandy37 | ppppp, what is the size of your ram |
| 02:05 | Dr_willis_ | ATLANT3AN22, go read up on the various IPTABLES howtos. I guess. You dont have a 'per app' or 'per user' controll. that i am aware of. |
| 02:05 | ppppp | i dont know it's not my computer exactly, but it should have enough ram |
| 02:05 | amenado | ATLANT3AN-> you know in linux, one tool alone is not the solution, sometimes a combination of several to effect the desired result |
| 02:05 | ATLANT3AN22 | so in windows, the applications can intercept the calls and stop them until you allow it, whilst linux cannot interupt calls |
| 02:05 | drpcken | ppppp, are you in windows now? |
| 02:05 | sandy37 | ppppp,you need to have atleast 512mb of ram to install ubuntu from a live cd |
| 02:06 | ppppp | ya im on my comp, the comp im trying to install ubuntu on is next to me im using the same monitor for both |
| 02:06 | usser | komputes: try krdc it's a bit a kde app but its pretty neat |
| 02:06 | drpcken | ppppp, click START --> and right click on My Computer and click Properties |
| 02:06 | amenado | appyJack-> that solved it? |
| 02:06 | appyJack | amenado: I need to keep reading up on this for a bit.. I'm sure there's other 'glitches' in here somewhere |
| 02:06 | drpcken | ppppp, it will tell you the RAM |
| 02:06 | ATLANT3AN22 | well really, I would like to know what Linux is doing, what connections it is making etc, so I know its not doing anything I dont want it to do, the exact thing i can accomplish on windows |
| 02:06 | Dr_willis_ | I love how windows will ask me if i want to allow an app to connect... after the app is allready running and connected and downloading stuff for the last hr+ , and occasionally reasks if i want to allow an app to connect.. after i said yes..just a few days befor. |
| 02:06 | yo___ | aim? |
| 02:06 | aimchanger | yo_____: Try this link! http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=285809 |
| 02:06 | appyJack | amenado:yes! just by adding the NEW state, output to internet works fine |
| 02:06 | yo___ | kk |
| 02:06 | ppppp | well id have to go afk for a bit and reconnect the monitor to it and then id prolly just look at the ram in the boot screen |
| 02:06 | amenado | ATLANT3AN-> then you must read up on iptables/Netfilter |
| 02:07 | ATLANT3AN22 | dr_willis not my experiance, the apps will not make any connection until I allow them |
| 02:07 | ppppp | but is there no way I can partition and do a clean install from boot from the ubuntu cd? |
| 02:07 | drpcken | ppppp, just do what i said, its faster |
| 02:07 | ATLANT3AN22 | using Outpost Security suite/netlimiter |
| 02:07 | yo___ | aim.. the computer isn't connected to the internet at all |
| 02:07 | yo___ | its my bros laptop |
| 02:07 | drpcken | ppppp, YES but you have to boot from the ubuntu cd |
| 02:07 | Dr_willis_ | ATLANT3AN22, ive seen dozens of games i play.. then when i close the game.. then i see the windows dialog asking if iwant to allow the app to connect. :) go figure. |
| 02:07 | ppppp | i did tho drpcken |
| 02:07 | ATLANT3AN22 | outpost pro is different dr_willis |
| 02:07 | Dr_willis_ | thats after playing the game online for a few hrs. |
| 02:07 | jvai | ATLANT3AN22, -> firestarter - http://www.fs-security.com/ |
| 02:07 | ATLANT3AN22 | i cant do nothing until I allow it |
| 02:07 | ppppp | it boots and shows the logo and under it a few options for running ubuntu |
| 02:08 | drpcken | ppppp, i mean boot the computer off the cd |
| 02:08 | jvai | & tcpdump |
| 02:08 | ATLANT3AN22 | i even have to allow it to make the game go full screen |
| 02:08 | aimchanger | yo__: can you connect it through ethernet or use a USB drive to get the files? ndiswrapper? |
| 02:08 | ATLANT3AN22 | else it will just hang |
| 02:08 | drpcken | ppppp, not just run the cd while running windows |
| 02:08 | x4cau | why the new release (8.04) is too slow ? how do I fix that? can one help me? =) |
| 02:08 | ppppp | but when i select the top choice of running and installing it brings me to the windows of ubuntu |
| 02:08 | yo___ | nop |
| 02:08 | yo___ | nope |
| 02:08 | Dr_willis_ | With the lack of spyware or other things under linux. its not much of an issue. |
| 02:08 | ppppp | i know im booting from it |
| 02:08 | yo___ | i can use sneakernet tho ;) |
| 02:08 | RoC_MasterMind | x4cau, goto #ubuntu+1 |

| 02:08 | ATLANT3AN22 | but thanks for help :) |
| 02:08 | aimchanger | pppp: Yeah! Double click on install |
| 02:08 | yo___ | their on the livecd |
| 02:09 | ppppp | thats my problem, nothing happens |
| 02:09 | ppppp | =( |
| 02:09 | drpcken | ppppp, we really need to know your RAM then, there's an install icon, after that it will let you setup partitions |
| 02:09 | ppppp | kk then i will brb and check |
| 02:09 | ppppp | thx for the help seriously... |
| 02:09 | ppppp | i need it |
| 02:09 | aimchanger | yo___: Yeah thats ok. Hooking up the ethenet connection should work |
| 02:09 | icesword | ... |
| 02:09 | amenado | Lunar_Lamp-> you are using the wrong tool of mysql |
| 02:09 | jvai | ...... |
| 02:10 | ATLANT3AN22 | well nice talking guys, good night |
| 02:10 | Lunar_Lamp | amenado, when I do a google search the solution I mentioned is suggested. |
| 02:11 | amenado | Lunar the wrong mysql , you are trying to use the script as oppsed to the client mysql |
| 02:11 | aimchanger | yo___: Going through the ethernet (eth0 - the default connection), follow the tutorial. It worked for me |
| 02:11 | sorrowsbitch | hey! is this the help channel? |
| 02:11 | aimchanger | Yes it is! |
| 02:11 | aimchanger | sorrows: What's your problem? |
| 02:11 | Lunar_Lamp | amenado, ah, I've just found - that function was removed from gutsy - but it worked in Feisty. |
| 02:11 | sorrowsbitch | I need some guidance for setting up samba. |

| 02:12 | Solmaze | Now for the next big question - If I want to allow a port to be used by everyone on the local network - how would I go about that? |
| 02:12 | aimchanger | it should be as simple as downloading the package.. the only tricky part may be configuring it. |
| 02:12 | scall | I installed Ubuntu Server 7.10 and port 80 is directed to /var/www/ How do I set this up if I want multiple websites hosted there? |
| 02:13 | amenado | Solmaze-> for what purpose? |
| 02:13 | sorrowsbitch | I have done it before, with Kubuntu; I have switched to Ubuntu |
| 02:13 | pcmax_ | System Information for PCMAX: CPU: AuthenticAMD AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3500+2629.147 MHz, 512 KB Cache RAM: 1035 MB HDD: 123 GB OS: GNU/Linux 2.6.22-14-generic Uptime: 21:43:09 up 1:01, 1 user, load average: 0.07, 0.05, 0.07 |
| 02:13 | Solmaze | Setting up a mediaserver actually |
| 02:13 | amenado | scall-> thats an apache trick..read up on virtual hosting |
| 02:13 | sorrowsbitch | I have downloaded the program |
| 02:13 | NB2000 | "/etc/apache2/sites-available" |
| 02:13 | aimchanger | scall: theres a few ways to do that I would think.. |
| 02:13 | aimchanger | yeah, what amenado said. |
| 02:14 | Solmaze | Gotten pretty far, but it keeps getting disconnected - I read my way to it being a problem with the ports - that the port used by the mediaserver is kicked by the system. |
| 02:14 | aimchanger | Sorrows: have you apt-get'd the package yet? |
| 02:14 | icesword | load 0.05, great |
| 02:14 | usser | scall: read up on virtual hosts |
| 02:14 | Solmaze | not sure if that makes much sense... |
| 02:14 | sorrowsbitch | I did |
| 02:14 | aimchanger | alright. |
| 02:14 | usser | scall: one sec I'll give you a sample config in a sec |
| 02:14 | scall | Thanks. |
| 02:14 | amenado | Solmaze-> you have to think in terms of client and server, are you serving or the client ? |
| 02:15 | Solmaze | Serving |
| 02:15 | aimchanger | sorrows: http://www.troubleshooters.com/linux/samba.htm |
| 02:15 | amenado | Solmaze-> okay, so now, you decide which port you will serve from |
| 02:15 | usser | scall: ok so its basically like that for each host you want to host you have to put a config file in /etc/apache2/hosts-available |
| 02:15 | usser | scall: those configs look something like |
| 02:16 | excalibas | I cant connect to wireless networks, when this happens i see a new network device called wlan0:avahi (when things work there is no wlan0:avahi.) Can someone point me to where can i learn about this avahi? or how can i fix this please? |
| 02:16 | sorrowsbitch | Thanks I will have a lool at it! I hope you don't mind me coming back if I still can't do it :) Thanks a bunch |

| 02:16 | aimchanger | sorrows: Do you want to configure Samba for Windows sharing or Linux or both? |

| 02:17 | amenado | excalibas-> you tried to google for avahi yet? |
| 02:17 | sorrowsbitch | thanks a lot |
| 02:17 | sorrowsbitch | good night/day! |

| 02:18 | excalibas | amenado: yes, i found its a program to do something with networking, but i coundt find a way to fix my problem tho... |
| 02:19 | usser | scall: to enable the site, and similarly add more virtual hosts |

| 02:19 | amenado | excalibas-> type ifconfig -a; iwconfig; route -n; cat /etc/resolv.conf and paste it into pastebin please |
| 02:20 | usser | scall: it's a whole area on its own for instance in my example virtual hosts are assumed to be on the same server but this server can be reffered to by different dns names ie hostname1.org and hostname2.org really point to same ip |
| 02:20 | tomd123 | ty starnestommy |
| 02:20 | yo___ | hey aim.. |
| 02:20 | usser | scall: and that's how apache distinguish them by name |

| 02:20 | yo___ | just a set of windows keys (fn +f2) |
| 02:21 | yo___ | yeah theres a light |

| 02:21 | cpurn | Hi, I'm using ubuntu 6.0.6 LTS. I was wondering how I could grab the tarball source of the latest kernel available for 6.0.6 LTS? |
| 02:21 | yo___ | dead black screen |
| 02:21 | bluefoxx | ok, so i have two moniters connected to my nvidia 6200, both working, but the second one[a TV] dosnt get window borders. how can i fix this? |
| 02:22 | aimchanger | yo__: alright. Just let it do its thing. |
| 02:22 | yo___ | i also used the original driver downloaded from the dell website =) |
| 02:22 | usser | bluefoxx: bring up the terminal on the second screen and try metacity --replace |
| 02:22 | amenado | cpurn-> apt-get install build-essential does not grab the kernel source? |
| 02:22 | usser | bluefoxx: im assuming you not running compiz or anything of that nature? |
| 02:22 | davmonster | build-essential doesn't |
| 02:22 | aimchanger | yo__: haha alright |
| 02:23 | cpurn | amenado: wouldn't that install all the gcc & libraries etc stuff to get you prepared for doing a bare metal package build? |
| 02:23 | yo___ | its all booted up.. hasn't turned on yet |
| 02:23 | excalibas | amenado: http://pastebin.ca/919925 |
| 02:23 | aimchanger | ok. umm in Terminal, can you run lspci |
| 02:23 | amenado | cpurn-> i thought it does that..then just pick your source thats needed? |
| 02:23 | aimchanger | look for the network controller |
| 02:23 | davmonster | apt-get install linux-source-(uname -r) |
| 02:23 | yo___ | and in network settings there's no wireless option!? |
| 02:23 | davmonster | or linux-headers-$(uname -r) |
| 02:23 | davmonster | or something |
| 02:24 | amenado | ahh there you go, a better one |
| 02:24 | cpurn | davmonster: woulnd't that install the latest kernel available for other release, i.e. edgy, where I'd like to keep in track with LTS still? |
| 02:24 | aimchanger | dav - run "uname -r" and add that to the last part of linux-headers- |
| 02:24 | davmonster | it would install source of your kernel version |
| 02:24 | davmonster | that's what uname -r does |
| 02:24 | yo___ | my network controller is in there.. |
| 02:25 | aimchanger | yo: can you see the model number or something? Like BCMXXX? |
| 02:25 | bluefoxx | usser: i am running compiz...otherwise i would have tried that. i have compiz running with custom settings on both screens |
| 02:25 | yo___ | yep |
| 02:25 | mstef | why whenever i goto any video site firefox crashes? |
| 02:25 | yo___ | BCM94311MCG |
| 02:25 | aimchanger | what is the number |
| 02:25 | mstef | youtube, metacafe, megavideo, etc |
| 02:25 | aimchanger | ok |
| 02:25 | amenado | excalibas get rid of that metric 100 make it so it is 0 |
| 02:26 | excalibas | amenado: how do i do that? |
| 02:26 | cpurn | I have been running 2.6.15.7 for a while, I had to custom package the kernel for some reasons. I'm thinkingo f upgrading my custom package kernel to the latest available... |
| 02:26 | aimchanger | yo: try this tutorial: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4392065 |
| 02:26 | wers | do you know any app that will work with a sony ericsson p990i? the only app that I successfully used with it so far is wammu |
| 02:26 | cpurn | davmas: so I was looking at the latest... I think I get it |
| 02:26 | cpurn | I'll give it a try...thanks |
| 02:26 | aimchanger | It may add some of the same things, just ignore them |
| 02:26 | wers | I want to sync stuff and install to my sony ericsson phone |
| 02:27 | davmonster | cpurn: type uname -r on a console |
| 02:27 | amenado | exacalibas what is it worth to you? am hungry right now <wink> |
| 02:27 | davmonster | cpurn: to see what it does |
| 02:27 | cpurn | 2.6.15.7-ubuntu1-custom |
| 02:27 | davmonster | heh okay |
| 02:27 | aimchanger | yo__: I mean that tut is specifically for your Version.. I had something else but yeah, try that link |
| 02:27 | cpurn | it's custom kernel that I packaged a while back |
| 02:27 | cpurn | it's not from the tree |
| 02:27 | danage | where do i report a bug in the new firefox beta 3 that is in hardy? |
| 02:27 | cpurn | I had to recompile this kernel by hand and hand picked the modules |
| 02:28 | danage | it's been broken for weeks |
| 02:28 | davmonster | cpurn: sorry, that's beyond my expertise :( |
| 02:28 | cpurn | davmonster: roger that, thanks for helping and trying! :) |
| 02:28 | aimchanger | danage: have you looked at mozilla's website? |
| 02:29 | bluefoxx | so how can i get window borders going on my second screen?i know my hard ware can support it, and i am running compiz BTW |
| 02:29 | danage | aimchanger: no i haven't, but this bug might be ubuntu specific so i was thinking of launchpad. but there are MILLION ways to report mozilla bugs |
| 02:29 | excalibas | amenado: sorry, i dont understand, i would really like to fix this, i have to change places a lot and this is a problem for me mabie just point me the way so i can try to fix it... |
| 02:30 | Condoulo | ok, my webcam works, but my microphone does not, is there a reason to this? (The mic is built into the webcam, Ubuntu detects it, but places like ustream won't and apps won't detect it properly) |
| 02:30 | aimchanger | danage: Oh alright. Well yeah if you find a solution, make sure to post it on Ubuntu Forums! |
| 02:30 | aimchanger | What is the problem anyways? |
| 02:30 | yo___ | AHHH i cant find my sneakernet router (sdcard) lol |
| 02:30 | usser | bluefoxx: so are you running it as dual head ie separate xserver for each monitor? can you drag windows from one screen to another? |
| 02:31 | danage | aimchanger: what do you mean? is your firefox also broken? |
| 02:31 | amenado | excalibas easy to understand, am hungry, and could use... j/k hehehe |
| 02:31 | bluefoxx | usser: they are seperate x screens, i cannot drag windows onto eachother as i run 4 workspaces on each |
| 02:32 | aimchanger | danage: No, but maybe I could shed some light on the solution. Probably not, but its worth a try. |
| 02:32 | prince_jammys | danage: #firefox is a possibility |
| 02:32 | danage | prince_jammys: good idea |
| 02:32 | amenado | excalibas-> all you do is add metric 0 on the interfaces file for the wlan0 definition on the interface file |
| 02:32 | usser | bluefoxx: I see... I assume you tried compiz --replace on the one without borders? |
| 02:32 | prince_jammys | danage: wow you type fast |
| 02:32 | peepsalot | isn't there some thing for ubuntu that rates how popular packages are? how can I see those results? |
| 02:33 | danage | prince_jammys: enter the first few letters of the name and then press <tab> |
| 02:33 | Odd-rationale | peepsalot: In the add/remove applications |
| 02:33 | bluefoxx | usser: nope, not yet, i will do that now. if i disappear then most likely my desktop has crashed |
| 02:33 | anthony | peepsalot: popcon.ubuntu.com |
| 02:33 | prince_jammys | danage: oh i know but even then |
| 02:33 | usser | bluefoxx: one more thing... is compiz actually running on that one without borders? wobbly windows and such? |
| 02:33 | danage | :) |

| 02:36 | bluefoxx | also. compiz --replace has removed all my wondow borders on both screens, and now everything is running slow, my input is lagging behind by 5 seconds as is output to the screens |

| 02:36 | yo___ | i have to find it in windows and transfer it to a different comp |
| 02:36 | yo___ | i cant |
| 02:36 | yo___ | none of my network controllers are working |
| 02:36 | usser | bluefoxx: odd switch back to metacity, kill compiz if anything of it is left hanging in processes and try again |

| 02:41 | yurimxpxman | aimchanger: no, I haven't heard of it |
| 02:41 | aimchanger | yurimxpxman: have you tried gtkpod * |
| 02:41 | Geoffrey2 | I want to be able to access documents on my Ubuntu desktop from several other computers in my home network, some running Linux, others Windows...what's a good solution for doing that? |

| 02:42 | wweasel | Anyone have any idea why MSNBC's online flash-based video streaming isn't working in by Ubuntu install? |
| 02:42 | aimchanger | hmm. yeah i haven't experimented with my iPod yet. Sorry. Try some good ol' Google |
| 02:42 | aimchanger | wweasel: have you installed all flash plugins? |
| 02:42 | aimchanger | wweasel: basically just Flash Player |
| 02:42 | bazhang | http://amarok.kde.org/wiki/Media_Device:IPod also with stuff about gtkpod yurimxpxman though you may need to compile a bit |
| 02:42 | wweasel | aimchanger: Yeah, youtube etc. works. |
| 02:42 | aimchanger | wweasel: Gnash doesnt work too well. It's unstable |
| 02:42 | amenado | Geoffrey2-> i like nfs |
| 02:42 | wweasel | aimchanger: flashplugin-nonfree |
| 02:43 | aimchanger | wweasel: Hmm.. It could be just a browser issue |
| 02:43 | wweasel | aimchanger: Try it yourself? http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/23349901/ - and click on live video link |
| 02:43 | sammyF | amenado: thanks ... if I don't get along with ldconfig I'll just add the export to profile. /usr/local/lib is mentioned in ld.so.conf, so it SHOULD be used ... just that it isn't ;) |
| 02:43 | amenado | Geoffrey2-> i like nfs == network file system |
| 02:43 | rseeber | Hello, I'm having a problem with my Ubuntu computer taking up all my wireless bandwidth. I have an ubuntu and a windows box next to each other and when ever the ubuntu box is downloading something, it almost kills my connection on the windows box |
| 02:43 | usser | amenado: nfs is not gonna work for windows client will it? |
| 02:43 | amenado | usser they have nfs client for windows |
| 02:43 | wweasel | rseeber: that sounds like just a standard problem with a home network with limited bandwidth. not an OS specific thing. |

| 02:45 | scall | That worked. Thanks. |
| 02:45 | rseeber | wweasle: ok, thanks anyway |
| 02:45 | aimchanger | scall: no problemo |
| 02:45 | aimchanger | scall: you'll need to sudo a lot of things |
| 02:46 | sammyF | amenado: just so you know, in case someone else comes up with the same problem : ldconfig.real (as root) rebuilt the library cache apparently |
| 02:46 | darkdelusions | andrew_: are you just trying to change the login screen? |
| 02:46 | sammyF | amenado: everything should work again :) thanks again! |

| 02:47 | ice109 | where did it go? |
| 02:47 | ice109 | cause it's not in my directory |
| 02:47 | yo___ | im really hoping this works with the internet |
| 02:47 | ice109 | my home directory |

| 02:47 | bluefoxx | usser: that last command crashed my computer beyond the help of even reisub, the first destablized me[and i loose my 4 day uptime, and a story i was working on. didnt save to the scsi in time >.>] |
| 02:47 | eric | hey all. Anyone here have experience with ltsp? I have edubuntu server installed and Wyse thin client on the same network... |
| 02:47 | bruenig | ice109: check /opt |
| 02:48 | sorrowsbitch | Hi, I need help with Samba! |
| 02:48 | eric | the wyse client is set to PXEboot, but I'm unsure how it is supposed to find the image to boot from, etc.. |
| 02:48 | ice109 | bruenig nope |
| 02:48 | eric | will pay for help services :) |
| 02:48 | andrew_ | darkdelusions no, the bg color after the login screen, i changed that and the splash screen, but the bg color around the splash screen is that gross pink color stull |
| 02:48 | amenado | eric-> your dhcp server will tell your pxeboot client that it should look for it in the /tftp directory |
| 02:48 | yo___ | whats the linux equivalent of a windows BATCH file? |
| 02:48 | ice109 | anyone anyone? where did the program i installed here : ~/Wolfram/Mathematica/6.0 |
| 02:48 | ice109 | go? |
| 02:48 | usser | bluefoxx: good god man... shouldn't do important stuff on unstable machines |

| 02:49 | luderacer | hello |

| 02:49 | prince_jammys | ice109: try ::: find /usr -iname *mathematica* |
| 02:49 | eric | amenado: i just installed it all and rebooted the wyse client and it didn't see one.. |
| 02:49 | stephans | how do I make it find the public key? |
| 02:49 | eric | my router provides DHCP... |
| 02:49 | stephans | I tried puting the trusted.gpg from /etc/apt where it is looking for it... but no go.... |
| 02:49 | bruenig | yo___: saying bash scripts are equivalent to batch files is almost a joke, bash is incomparably better than dinky batch files |
| 02:49 | eric | so how does the server? |
| 02:49 | Dr_willis_ | yo___, put bash commandsd in a text file.. chmod +x the file, ./file |
| 02:49 | usser | ice109: precisely where it says, into your homefolder in Wolfram/Mathematica/6.0 |
| 02:49 | yo___ | lmao |
| 02:49 | sorrowsbitch | Anyone who is gonna save this newbie from his samba troubles? |

| 02:50 | Luderacer | for some reason ubuntu is freezing any way i can find out why? |
| 02:50 | usser | ice109: weird did you install using sudo? |
| 02:50 | prince_jammys | ice109: -iname is case insensitive |

| 02:50 | ice109 | nope |
| 02:51 | bluefoxx | usser: this machine isnt unstable, its just...well it hates me ¬¬. my other machines are unstable...if you consider running a full install of ubuntu spread across 3 6 gigs ona 450mhz celeron with 128 ram while overclocking 40% unstable |
| 02:51 | mosibfu | ice109, i like locate |
| 02:51 | amenado | eric-> if you can spare the time to read up on tutorials regarding linux LTSP then come back, after you go through its drill |
| 02:51 | prince_jammys | ice109: "find" is the powerful find command |
| 02:51 | eric | I have been reading them most of the day :) |

| 02:51 | ice109 | prince_jammys what does /usr and -iname do? |
| 02:51 | andrew_ | any idea where the .conf file is to change the bg color for the splash screen |
| 02:51 | eric | been reading the WIKI all day :) |
| 02:51 | amenado | eric-> also sometimes, one needs a break so one can absorb the info, we all get info overload |
| 02:51 | eric | yeah. |
| 02:52 | prince_jammys | ice109: searches within /usr recursively , -iname searches case insensitive |
| 02:52 | illmortal | Anyone know if Gutsy 7.10 has a shut down bug?.... Network manager seeems to be the culprit in causing my shut down to freeze |
| 02:52 | usser | bluefoxx: heh... not to be a jerk or anything ubuntu by definition is unstable :P... anyhow did you get compiz running again? this command crashed you gtk-window-decorator --replace? |
| 02:52 | jooje | I like the architecture style thou. |
| 02:52 | ice109 | prince_jammys so if i want to search the entire directory tree how do i do that? |
| 02:52 | amenado | illmortal-> how long did you wait? |
| 02:52 | ice109 | find / Mathematica? |
| 02:52 | illmortal | lol nearly 10 minutes. |
| 02:52 | jooje | wrong window |
| 02:52 | illmortal | and i couldn't stop halt, amenado. |
| 02:52 | ice109 | woops that did not do what i wanted it to do |
| 02:52 | prince_jammys | ice109: sudo find / -iname *mathematica* |
| 02:53 | ConstyXIV | can you manually override your DNS servers? |
| 02:53 | prince_jammys | ice109: with * |
| 02:53 | amenado | illmortal you can get around it by doing ifdown wlan0 or ifdown eth0 whichever interfaces you have, then shutdown |
| 02:53 | ice109 | what does the * do? |
| 02:53 | bruenig | prince_jammys: quote '*mathematica*' |
| 02:53 | xander | ok , i messed up bad |
| 02:53 | xander | is there someone here that can help me sort out my xorg.conf |
| 02:53 | illmortal | amenado, should I do this prior to clicking the shut down button? |
| 02:54 | bluefoxx | usser: i rebooted alltogether witht the magical reset button i put on my computer. and no the gtk-window-decorator --replace crashed me. hard. |
| 02:54 | prince_jammys | ice109: will match mathematica-12 mathematica-blah.. if you don't use * you will only match a file named "mathematica" and no other |
| 02:54 | darkdelusions | illmortal: yes you will want to do it before you shutdown |
| 02:54 | amenado | eric-> anyhow the concept is, you should only have one dhcp server on that subnet, otherwise the pxeclient may get a wrong ip and will not get the boot stuff from tftp server |
| 02:54 | xander | if i could get my drivers working properly , it would be the last major hurdle to converting over to linux |
| 02:55 | bluefoxx | andrew_:i'de like to know wear that .conf file is too, if you find out |
| 02:55 | usser | bluefoxx: one more thing check your xorg.conf for that line Option "AddARGBGLXVisuals" "True" its supposed to be somewhere in the Screen section |
| 02:55 | amenado | illmortal yes, prior to shutting down, shutdown process actually does that for you, but sometimes it gets stuck as you have experienced |
| 02:55 | ice109 | where is a good place to put applications? |
| 02:55 | sorrowsbitch | Still hanging in here for Samba pro! |
| 02:55 | ice109 | in my home directory? |
| 02:55 | eric_ | did you get my last question, amenado? i got discd |
| 02:55 | prince_jammys | ice109: /usr/local |
| 02:55 | amenado | eric nope.. |
| 02:55 | amenado | eric-> anyhow the concept is, you should only have one dhcp server on that subnet, otherwise the pxeclient may get a wrong ip and will not get the boot stuff from tftp server |
| 02:55 | andrew_ | bluefoxx ok |
| 02:55 | illmortal | amenado, it has done this 4 times back to back already.... |
| 02:55 | bluefoxx | usser: kk |
| 02:55 | prince_jammys | ice109: or /opt, some people use |
| 02:55 | bluefoxx | usser: brb then |
| 02:55 | eric_ | so in general... |
| 02:55 | eric_ | since my router is providing DHCP |
| 02:55 | eric_ | I can't disable that or everything else breaks |
| 02:55 | eric_ | recommended action? |
| 02:56 | andrew_ | bluefoxx i spent tons of time looking for it last time, but then forgot and just had to reinstal... |
| 02:56 | eric_ | ok, so I need a switch in place |
| 02:56 | illmortal | I strongly believe there's some sort of network manager bug... specially since it displays that i don' t have connectivity even though I'm online right now. |
| 02:56 | amenado | eric-> put the client with pxe on its own subnet with your own customized dhcp server |
| 02:56 | eric_ | doubt the router allows that |
| 02:56 | eric_ | well, it might |
| 02:56 | eric_ | linksys 24 port switch |
| 02:57 | amenado | eric-> create another subnet, separate network |
| 02:57 | xander | i have used envy , but i don't think its doing it correctly |
| 02:57 | eric_ | amenado: you make that sound simple |
| 02:57 | usser | !envy |
| 02:57 | ubotu | envy is not needed or supported. Use the Resticted Manager to install binary drivers and see « /msg ubotu binarydriver » |
| 02:57 | amenado | eric yes, creating a separate network is not difficult |
| 02:57 | phuzion | if a directory shows up as cyan in terminal, does that mean it is a symlink/ |
| 02:57 | phuzion | ? |
| 02:58 | yo___ | omg |
| 02:58 | prince_jammys | phuzion: do ls -l file_name and see |
| 02:58 | yo___ | stupid tutorial once again didn't work |
| 02:58 | prince_jammys | phuzion: or do :: file file_name |
| 02:58 | xander | ok i have that on now |
| 02:58 | yo___ | where can i get the firmware for the bcm43xx |
| 02:58 | yo___ | ? |
| 02:58 | phuzion | prince_jammys, yeah, thanks. How do I undo a symlink then? |
| 02:58 | xander | but i don't have the resolution i would like to use |
| 02:58 | Dr_willis_ | yo___, i just ran the resticted-manager tool and it grabbed it for my bcm card. |
| 02:58 | amenado | yo___-> do you have the 7.10 liveCD i believe it is there |
| 02:58 | Odd-rationale | phuzion: Del it |
| 02:59 | prince_jammys | phuzion: you can delete the symlink |
| 02:59 | stormzen-away | I'm experimenting with wmctrl. Is there a way of determine what window hints are being applied when windows are grouped together using compiz? |
| 02:59 | eric_ | hmmmmmmmmmmmm |
| 02:59 | prince_jammys | phuzion: and recreate whatever you need |
| 02:59 | yo___ | i have the livecd |
| 02:59 | eric_ | so I have another switch sitting here. I should plug it all into that one. |
| 02:59 | yo___ | what is it on the live cd? |
| 02:59 | eric_ | the server and client |
| 02:59 | eric_ | its a web-managed switch. then i turn off DHCP and i'm good to go? |
| 02:59 | xander | can i just add the resolution into the xorg.conf? |
| 02:59 | amenado | !who | yo___ |

| 03:00 | bluefoxx | usser: whear is the xorg.conf file i want to check? the one i found didnt have that phrase |

| 03:09 | orbisvicis | how can i change the console font on ubuntu ? |
| 03:09 | xander | i think the driver is installed , its not set up right or something |
| 03:09 | usser | drpcken: should be the fourth column |
| 03:09 | jpipkin | xander:: read nvidia's readme. |
| 03:09 | xander | i think i did |
| 03:09 | xander | but ok |
| 03:09 | tmcfulton | When running Google Earth, my session gets logged out, any help, please? |
| 03:09 | mar77i | qry? what's wrong? |
| 03:09 | usser | Nick-O: sudo dpkg --purge flashplugin-nonfree |
| 03:10 | luciddr34m3r | Hey, I'm on a fresh install of gutsy, and every time I load a Java applet in firefox, it hangs/crashes. Any ideas? |
| 03:10 | usser | Nick-O: and then apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree |
| 03:10 | mindheavy | has libstdc++5 been replaced by libstdc++6? i cannot get gutsy to install the xorg-driver-fglrx because apt-get can't find libstdc++5 |
| 03:10 | phuzion | Ubuntu isn't recognizing my three non-ext3 partitions. They should show up in /media/hda1 /media/hdb5 and /media/sda1. The directories that are there exist, but they are empty, which leads me to believe the drives are not mounted. How do I fix this? |
| 03:10 | jpipkin | mindheavy:: there should be a compat version. search in aptitude. |
| 03:11 | jpipkin | mindheavy:: for 5 |
| 03:11 | usser | phuzion: well try to mount them manually |
| 03:11 | usser | phuzion: sudo mount /dev/hdb5 /media/hdb5 etc |
| 03:11 | mar77i | can u tell me why permission is denied to me to folder /home/martti while I've got chowned them martti:martti and modded to 644??? |
| 03:11 | xander | ok where do i find the readme ? |
| 03:11 | xander | my head is spinning |
| 03:11 | macogw | is there a package for the xscreensaver that lets you pass keypresses to ElectricSheep? |
| 03:11 | darkdelusions | luciddr34m3r: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-plugin |
| 03:12 | tmcfulton | Can somebody help me, Google Earth and AmaroK cause spontaneous logouts, perhaps a library problem? |
| 03:12 | luciddr34m3r | darkdelusions: i'm pretty sure i've done that but i'll double check... i even reinstalled, and then manually installed the plugins... |
| 03:12 | xander | nm i got it , back after a read |
| 03:13 | luciddr34m3r | darkdelusions: it saus its already installed |
| 03:13 | Nick-O | it's DLing. i'll see if this works |
| 03:13 | luciddr34m3r | says* |
| 03:13 | tmcfulton | no error messages or anything |
| 03:13 | mikev | while Im here I have a another question, long time windows user, which permissions do I need to set to a file, to be able to do anything with my user like in a windows environment, like rename, double click, delete, etc, and full read to anyone else? whats the x permission for? |
| 03:13 | Jangari | anyone know a good audio editor (i.e., that is *not* audacity) for linux? |
| 03:14 | Nick-O | that didn't work |
| 03:14 | tmcfulton | There is no other |
| 03:14 | jpipkin | Jangari:: there are plenty, ask google and wiki |
| 03:14 | andrew_ | bluefoxx, you still here? |
| 03:14 | mindheavy | jpipkin: aptitude isn't showing a libstdc++5 either |
| 03:14 | usser | Nick-O: what did it say? |
| 03:14 | mar77i | what shellbased user administration is there? |
| 03:14 | Nick-O | everything uninstalled and installed properly without errors but still no audio |
| 03:15 | luciddr34m3r | anyone know why firefox would crash when i load a java applet? i already have the sun-java6-plugin |
| 03:15 | jpipkin | mindheavy:: works for me. |
| 03:15 | daedalus2 | q: if ubuntu detected and load the nvidia restricted driver just fine do I need to mess with the proprietary (sp) drivers @ all? |
| 03:15 | jpipkin | dunno man. |
| 03:15 | Nick-O | you want me to do it again and give you the terminal readings? |
| 03:15 | mindheavy | jpipkin: are you just going to search -> find? is there something im missing perhaps? |
| 03:15 | jpipkin | daedalus2:: it's restricted because it *is* proprietary |
| 03:15 | usser | daedalus2: not really... unless you going for latest and greatest! |
| 03:15 | mindheavy | jpipkin: i've never used aptitude |
| 03:15 | jpipkin | mindheavy:: I just use / |
| 03:16 | Nick-O | any way to reinstall firefox? |
| 03:16 | darkdelusions | daedalus2: You dont need the proprietary drivers if Ubuntu loaded the restriced unless you want to update to a more recent version |
| 03:16 | drpcken_ | grrrr, can anyone tell me what ctrl alt F2 does? besides make me lose my gui and have to restart lol |
| 03:16 | jpipkin | puts on the second virtual terminal. |
| 03:16 | daedalus2 | do you gain any extra functions/speed with latest/greatest? |
| 03:16 | werneck | how can I make apt-get to just download the deb packages, with all dependencies, not install them |
| 03:16 | usser | Nick-O: I really am lost, never seen this before and not sure if reinstalling firefox would help |
| 03:16 | jpipkin | daedalus2:: usually, yes. |
| 03:16 | Nick-O | i have 8 updates to do and some of the forums said that fixed it so i'm going to try that |
| 03:16 | darkdelusions | daedalus2: not really |
| 03:17 | Nick-O | yeah, i don't think so either |
| 03:17 | Geoffrey2 | any guess why trying to restart slapd would cause an error that slapd.conf can't be found, even though it's actually there? |
| 03:17 | usser | Nick-O: try it |
| 03:17 | drpcken_ | how can i get back to my gui from the second virtual terminal? |
| 03:17 | luciddr34m3r | drpcken_: it takes you to a terminal. i think you can get out with ctrl + apt + F7... i think |
| 03:17 | luciddr34m3r | alt* |
| 03:17 | drpcken_ | ahh |
| 03:17 | jpipkin | drpcken_:: usually alt-f7 |
| 03:17 | drpcken_ | thank you! |
| 03:17 | luciddr34m3r | i think |
| 03:17 | luciddr34m3r | ah just alt |
| 03:17 | drpcken_ | whats the point of this terminal? |
| 03:17 | m0u5e | i would like to be able to view cymk photoshop psd format files in ubuntu, does anyone know of a way? |
| 03:17 | drpcken_ | just a different way of running commands? |
| 03:18 | daedalus2 | do restricted drivers get updated w/ normal update procedure? |
| 03:18 | jpipkin | drpcken_:: using the system, yes |
| 03:18 | drpcken_ | ok |
| 03:18 | jpipkin | not every system needs a GUI |
| 03:18 | luciddr34m3r | well, i have some linux installs with no gui at all |
| 03:18 | usser | m0u5e: install cs2 :) |
| === drpcken_ is now known as drpcken |
| 03:18 | Cody | mouse; re-save the files from adobe as .tiff or something else and then you can use GIMP |
| 03:18 | m0u5e | usser what if i don't have cs2? :/ |
| 03:18 | m0u5e | usser: besides, i don't think this computer could run cs2 |
| 03:18 | drpcken | anyone know of a multi protocol Instant Messenger app besides Pidgin that you can recommend? |
| 03:18 | Cody | Hey, I enabled a different restricted driver in Ubuntu 7.1 (instead of the generic NVIDIA driver, I did the Nvidia 6 series driver) and I now can't use my ubuntu. |
| 03:19 | drpcken | i'm use to using trillian ;) |
| 03:19 | m0u5e | drpcken: kopete? |
| 03:19 | jpipkin | drpcken:: www.meebo.com |
| 03:19 | Cody | How do I disable that via Command line (recovery mode) |
| 03:19 | m0u5e | drpcken: you don't like pidgin? i rather like it :3 |
| 03:19 | mikev | Long time windows user, which permissions do I need to set to a file, to be able to do anything with my user like in a windows environment, like rename, double click, delete, etc, and full read to anyone else? whats the x permission for? |
| 03:19 | usser | m0u5e: hm, the only hope would be gimp but it doesn't support cmyk as far as I know |
| 03:19 | drpcken | m0u5e, i can't get it to flash a window when i get a new message |
| 03:19 | drpcken | it only shows in the top bar |
| 03:19 | drpcken | wierd |
| 03:19 | jpipkin | mikev:: man chmod |
| 03:20 | levander | Does anyone else have security.ubuntu.com in their sources.list? I keep getting errors from apt-get update when I try to hit that server. |
| 03:20 | luciddr34m3r | my firefox is crashing when i load a java applet... and i have the java plugin. any ideas? |
| 03:20 | usser | m0u5e: you can also take a look at krita |
| 03:20 | mar77i | qry? can somebody tell me why permission is denied to me to folder /home/martti while I've got chowned them martti:martti and modded to 644??? |
| 03:21 | usser | mar77i: try to chmod to 777 see if you get denied and then go down |
| 03:21 | usser | mar77i: ie to 766 and lower it gradually |
| 03:21 | daedalus2 | do restricted drivers get updated w/ normal update procedure? |
| 03:22 | mar77i | usser: but 7 stands for execute? |
| 03:22 | jpipkin | you won't be able to enter a directory if that directory does not have execute permissions. |
| 03:22 | darkdelusions | daedalus2: I beleave so yes |
| 03:22 | jpipkin | mar77i:: you need to read the chmod man page. |
| 03:22 | usser | mar77i: owner should have all rights anyway |
| 03:22 | Cody | on the heels of daedalus2's question; does anyone know how to disable restricted drivers via command line? |
| 03:23 | macogw | mar77i: any odd number is execute |
| 03:23 | Nick-O | it didnt' tell me to restart but i'm goign to try to anyways so byb |
| 03:23 | mar77i | usser: how to get the user's id of the working user? |
| 03:24 | jpipkin | mar77i:: id |
| 03:24 | Jangari | my trying to install netatalk months ago has meant every synaptic or apt-get command returns an error with the 'netatalk package', and efforts to purge it from my system only result in: "E: netatalk: subprocess pre-removal script returned error exit status 1". How can I et rid of netatalk? |
| 03:24 | amenado | Cody-> are the restricted drivers loaded or not? |
| 03:24 | m0u5e | drpcken: it should be under plugins |
| 03:24 | m0u5e | drpcken: it flashes for me :X |
| 03:24 | Cody | I have my drivers loaded, but I doubt I have the ones I changed it to loaded. |
| 03:25 | m0u5e | usser: krita is a kde app, :( |
| 03:25 | Cody | When I start my ubuntu install before, I had to boot the live CD in safe graphics mode. |
| 03:25 | drpcken | hmm i'll check it out |
| 03:25 | drpcken | thanks :) |
| 03:25 | amenado | Cody-> are the restricted drivers loaded or not? |
| 03:25 | m0u5e | usser: i'd have to install a bunch of kde libraries |
| 03:25 | Cody | Then I got my restricted drivers installed (generic NVIDIA), and it worked fine |
| 03:26 | ol_dude67 | what is the command to do an upgrade for the distro? |
| 03:26 | Cody | I looked through and just changed the drivers from generic nvidia to "Nvidia 6 Series" and it said "To apply this change all users have to log out" |
| 03:26 | jpipkin | apt-get dist-upgrade |
| 03:26 | Cody | I never got a window that said I was downloading the drivers or anything. |
| 03:26 | Cody | Now when I start my ubuntu install, I get vertical green and blue lines |
| 03:26 | jpipkin | ol_dude67:: man apt-get |
| 03:26 | bluefoxx | so how do i change the background color curing login splash?. there used to be a menu option for it somewear but thats vanished. im tired of looking at that [no offense to those who like it] horridly pink background during login |
| 03:26 | Cody | So the graphics drivers I chose I don't think are compatible. Does that make sense? |
| 03:27 | Cody | I just want to know the command line command/commands to disable restricted drivers, from there I can do it on my own. |
| 03:27 | Cody | Thanks! |
| 03:27 | Nick-O | still nothing |
| 03:27 | parataral | quick question /problem |
| 03:27 | Cody | Yes parataral |
| 03:28 | parataral | i did a 'chmod -R 664 ./*' and now i can't cd into any of the folders |
| 03:28 | jpipkin | parataral:: man chmod |
| 03:28 | bruenig | parataral: chmod 755 them all again |
| 03:28 | bruenig | removing the executable bit from a folder makes it useless |
| 03:28 | icesword | what does this error mean:configure:error:c++ preprocessor "/lib/cpp fails sanity check |
| 03:28 | icesword | i am compiling fluxbox |
| 03:29 | threethirty | hello all does anyone have any idea why Videos and Visualizations are in black and white on both of my gutsy boxes? I use gstreamer by default but have mplayer and vlc installed and it is the same all around |
| 03:29 | darkdelusions | icesword: if i remember correctly you can get flux from apt |
| 03:29 | Jangari | what formats, threethirty? |
| 03:29 | parataral | aah yes... sorry for the dumb question heh |
| 03:30 | icesword | i am compiling fluxbox 1.0 |
| 03:30 | m0u5e | whats the difference between the gthumb image viewer and the gnome eye image viewer? |
| 03:30 | threethirty | Jangari, all of them, its even when I play music in totem |
| 03:30 | darkdelusions | icesword: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fluxbox |
| 03:30 | m0u5e | gnome eye can't play animated gifs, while gthumb can... it really doesn't make sense to have 2 viewers :X |
| 03:30 | Cody | So, amenado, do you just know the command to disable restricted graphics drivers? |
| 03:31 | icesword | darkdelusions, k,thx |
| 03:31 | macogw | gthumb is an album organizer thing |
| 03:31 | macogw | i just cant figure out how the heck it works...as far as i can figure out, it doesn't |
| 03:31 | amenado | Cody-> are the restricted graphics drivers loaded or not? |
| 03:31 | m0u5e | macogw: i thought that was f-spot |
| 03:31 | Cody | amenado; by loaded, do you mean "downloaded and installed"? |
| 03:31 | m0u5e | by the way, is there a file i can go to to manage how applications handle file extensions? (default apps opened by whatever app_ |
| 03:31 | amenado | Cody-> what do you mean by disable then? |
| 03:31 | bruenig | applications don't handle file extensions |
| 03:32 | Jangari | m0u5e: first try system > prefs > preferred applications |
| 03:32 | bruenig | file extensions are ignored by all things |
| 03:32 | Cody | amenado; I chose the wrong driver to run (I had a working one, thought another would be better, and switched them), and now it doesn't display anything other then vertical green and blue lines |
| 03:32 | jpipkin | the system identifies file types via magic. |
| 03:32 | bruenig | well there may be an awful file manager here and there that takes notice of them |
| 03:32 | macogw | m0u5e: they both are |
| 03:32 | Nick-O | i'll quit messing with firefox flah audio for now. in place i have tried opera 9.5 but it is not stable at all and even at the sight of a flash site shuts down. any ideas to fix this? |
| 03:32 | threethirty | Jangari: any ideas? |
| 03:32 | macogw | m0u5e: f-spot is the replacement for gthumb |
| 03:32 | m0u5e | Jangari: not nearly as detailed as i need it to be :X |
| 03:32 | Jangari | no, sorry threethirty |
| 03:32 | amenado | Cody-> so is the graphics driver loaded or not? |
| 03:32 | mindheavy | jpipkin: would you be able to help me figure out if i am missing a repository or something? i found a .deb package for libstdc++5 but it requires gcc-3.3 and i have gcc-4.1.2 installed, cannot find gcc-3.3 now... |
| 03:33 | Jangari | i agree, m0u5e |
| 03:33 | m0u5e | macogw: i don't like fspot though -_-; |
| 03:33 | aimchanger | Nick-O: Do you have flash installed + the firefox plugin? |
| 03:33 | m0u5e | Jangari: i hope they make it better in hardy |
| 03:33 | Cody | amenado; what do you mean by "loaded" exactly? I'm not getting your question...Sorry! Thanks for your patience though |
| 03:33 | Nick-O | yeah |
| 03:33 | Nick-O | it plays video bu no audio |
| 03:33 | macogw | m0u5e: neither do i. it completely ignores EXIF data. |
| 03:33 | clinton | how is UVC video support in Ubuntu right now? |
| 03:33 | Nick-O | is there any way to reinstall just that plugin? |
| 03:33 | macogw | m0u5e: i have hardy installed, but id rather not touch f-spot :P |
| 03:34 | amenado | Cody-> am not trying to be difficult, one can not just disable because it just a file thats sits in a directory |
| === jernster_ is now known as jme` |
| 03:34 | Jangari | Nick-O: just to be scientific, have you tried installing flash via adobe? |
| 03:34 | Cody | amenado; so, if my ubuntu is trying to access a graphics file that isn't there, would it give vertical green and blue lines? |
| 03:34 | Jangari | you fvcked something up, Cody, reinstall |
| 03:34 | m0u5e | macogw: i just got rid of it on my gutsy |
| 03:34 | amenado | Cody-> i guess my point is, if its loaded, one can then unload it |
| 03:35 | Darkmystere | How do i split an iso in ubuntu? |
| 03:35 | Nick-O | no i haven't. it came with firefox after my ubuntu install. should i try installing over it? |
| 03:35 | m0u5e | Jangari: do you know where the conf files are stored/ |
| 03:35 | Cody | amenado: by vertical green and blue lines, I mean right after ubuntu finishes loading and tries to load up the login screen, it goes green and blue |
| 03:35 | amenado | Cody then you can load the correct working one |
| 03:35 | Jangari | ah, try gconf, or whatever it is |
| 03:35 | aimchanger | Nick-O: Yeah try the tarball from their website |
| 03:35 | Cody | amenado; I'm certain I still have the original drivers, so how would I tell ubuntu to look for those instead? |
| 03:35 | Nick-O | i'll do that |
| 03:35 | gmaster | sup guys |
| 03:36 | aimchanger | yo___: did you get it working? |
| 03:36 | yo___ | nope |
| 03:36 | Jangari | Nick-O: I'd try uninstalling any flash plugins you have, then go to http://www.adobe.com/go/getflash |
| 03:36 | yo___ | ive tried everything.. im thinking about just totally reinstalling the OS and starting from scratch |
| 03:36 | Cody | Jangari; All it is is a bad driver selected, I just need to point ubuntu to a different one, how do I do that in command line? |
| 03:36 | Nick-O | okay |
| 03:36 | yo___ | maybe the install got messed up or something |
| 03:36 | aimchanger | yo___: ah damn. What does "ndiswrapper -l" give you? |
| 03:36 | amenado | Cody-> if the driver is not listed in blacklist-restricted, and appears where all the modules are loaded from, then it is loaded |
| 03:36 | yo___ | hold on lemme wait for my bros comp to boot up |
| 03:37 | J-a-K-e | does anyone know how to setup a high pass filter through alsa? |
| 03:37 | Cody | Okay, so in the safe mode ubuntu, I would type in "blacklist-restricted" and it would list my restricted stuff? |
| 03:37 | yo___ | whats alsa? |
| 03:37 | aimchanger | yo___:ok. yeah i guess that could work, and just follow a tutorial for your model number. |
| 03:37 | yo___ | im so sick of this crap.. |
| 03:37 | bluefoxx | so how do i change the background color curing login splash?. there used to be a menu option for it somewear but thats vanished. im tired of looking at that [no offense to those who like it] horridly pink background during login |
| 03:37 | yo___ | this is the kind of stuff that makes me not wanna install ubuntu on my comp *blasphemy* lol |
| 03:38 | Nick-O | oh yeah, i've looked at this but can't fine any amd64 plugins |
| 03:38 | aimchanger | yo___: yeah it took me a while and i gave up for a bit.. but once you get everything working it all gets easier. and awesome! Compiz-fusion is sick |
| 03:38 | wease| | yo___...ALSA is the the Advanced Linux Sound Architecture |
| 03:38 | amenado | Cody-> do you still have the liveCD? and it works with the liveCD? |
| 03:38 | yo___ | compiz-fusion? |
| 03:38 | Cody | amenado; In safe graphics mode, yes. |
| 03:38 | Cody | amenado; It works perfectly in live-CD under safe graphics mode |
| 03:38 | Jangari | yo___: desktop graphics rendering |
| 03:38 | aimchanger | yo___: look it up on youtube. its not for networking, just for eyecandy |
| 03:38 | yo___ | what package do i need for the bcm43xx firmware? |
| 03:38 | Cody | amenado; I haven't tested the live CD after recent problems though |
| 03:38 | aimchanger | yo___: like cool wobbly windows and stuff' |
| 03:39 | macogw | bluefoxx: pink? the background is light brown by default. might wanna check your monitor's color settings. anyway, the background color listed in the desktop image / background image configuration thing should be the same color |
| 03:39 | Jangari | yo___: rendering four workspaces on a cube that's manipulable in space, and all that |
| 03:39 | macogw | yo___: bcm43xx-fwcutter |
| 03:39 | amenado | Cody if you boot the liveCD and press e when you see the menu, it allows you to edit the grub, so select the safe mode and look for the parameters there |
| 03:39 | aimchanger | ^^ yeah look into that |
| 03:39 | yo___ | i already have that |
| 03:39 | yo___ | but after that what do i need? |
| 03:39 | aimchanger | yo___: that will hopefully get your firmware working |
| 03:40 | aimchanger | yo___: it should prompt you for the driver files |
| 03:40 | macogw | yo___: it shouldve downloaded a driver and extracted the firmware for you during install |
| 03:40 | yo___ | nope |
| 03:40 | phuzion | I need to make a symlink called d: to /media/hda5, but for some reason, its not showing up after doing ln -s d: /media/sda5 any ideas? |
| 03:40 | Cody | amenado; So by editing grub I could point it to the correct driver? |
| 03:40 | mindheavy | after installing the 'xorg-driver-fglrx' ati driver with apt-get, are there any further tasks to complete? or just restart x? |
| 03:40 | amenado | Cody then copy exact same parameters pass during safe mode.. following me? |
| 03:40 | bluefoxx | macogw: i know its light brown but i call that pink, its basically skin pink by my standards[close enough to call it pink]. im not a huge pink fan. unless its pink floyd. XD |
| 03:40 | macogw | yo___: if it didnt get the driver for you due to you being offline, just hand it a windows driver |
| 03:40 | yo___ | how? lmao im completely totally noob to this |
| 03:40 | aimchanger | yo___: I installed my drivers through ndiswrapper w/ that other tutorial I gave you |
| 03:40 | Cody | amenado; Oh! So you want me to see the safe mode parameters on the Live-CD, write them down, and then put those into command line or something? |
| 03:40 | yo___ | that didn't work lol |
| 03:40 | amenado | Cody yes you can edit the menu.lst and pass exact same parameters as the safe mode in liveCD |
| 03:40 | macogw | yo___: get your windows driver, then type "bcm43xx-fwcutter driverfilename" |
| 03:40 | yo___ | what about the restricted driveers utititly? |
| 03:40 | amenado | Cody exactly |
| 03:41 | macogw | yo___: actually, put "sudo" before that |
| 03:41 | aimchanger | yo___: yeah i think its b/c we have different cards |
| 03:41 | macogw | bluefoxx: i thought pink was light red :P |
| 03:41 | yo___ | what about the restricted drivers manager? |
| 03:41 | aimchanger | yo___: try the command that macogw gave ya |
| 03:41 | darkdelusions | yo___: what was your broadcom question from earlier? |
| 03:41 | Cody | Okay, now if I hit E and see the Live-CD safe mode parameters, would I type those directly into the command line on ubuntu recovery mode? |
| 03:41 | Geoffrey2 | I'm trying to set up ldap on Ubuntu Gutsy (7.10), I configured the slapd.conf and ldap.conf files, then tried to restart slapd, I got an error telling me it couldn't find a configuration file at /etc/ldap/slapd.conf, even though that's exactly where the file is located....any ideas? |
| 03:41 | Darkmystere | How do i split an iso in ubuntu?... |
| 03:41 | yo___ | im trying to get a bcm43xx running in ubuntu so itll hook up to the net |
| 03:42 | yo___ | darkdelusions |
| 03:42 | macogw | yo___: want the illegal but should definitely work way? |
| 03:42 | amenado | Cody-> you can have additional entries in your menu.lst with exact parameters as your liveCd.. so that way you can easily not choose the selection frm the grub during boot |
| 03:42 | bluefoxx | macogw: i have the background set to dark b;ue, doesn't work. and yes, pink is also light red, but brown is muddy red too!XD |
| 03:42 | macogw | yo___: wget http://macoafi.googlepages.com/firmware.tar.gz |
| 03:42 | yo___ | yes |
| 03:42 | amenado | once you have it fixed |
| 03:42 | macogw | yo___: after that's downloaded, tar xf firmware.tar.gz |
| 03:42 | Cody | So do you want me to go copy the live-CD parameters and come back with them and from there you can help me further? |
| 03:43 | macogw | yo___: sudo mv firmware/* /lib/firmware/ |
| 03:43 | reasons | mluefoxx, where did you set it to be blue |
| 03:43 | wease| | darkmystere: splitting an ISO? that is pretty tough considering |
| 03:43 | yo___ | macogw wanna aim? this place is too crowded.. i can't get any of this lol |
| 03:43 | darkdelusions | yo___: did u try looking at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx |
| 03:43 | macogw | yo___: thats it |
| 03:43 | Nick-O | when i download it, and click the shell and run or run in terminal nothign happens |
| 03:43 | amenado | Cody yeah try it, again it is much easier to modify a menu.lst to add another entry.. |
| 03:43 | wease| | you can try and roast it as two separate files and commingle them afterwards |
| 03:43 | macogw | yo___: i tarred up the firmware from my mom's computer and put it online |
| 03:43 | Nick-O | it's not a 64bit error i was thinking of somethign else |
| 03:43 | Cody | alright, so I'll be right back |
| 03:43 | Darkmystere | weasel, yea i wantd to make 98MB pieaces of a 2.44GB iso :/ |
| 03:44 | bluefoxx | reasons: me? |
| 03:44 | Stwange | whoah I didn't realise that the alt+tab scroll actually showed real time images of the windows... it even shows videos moving! |
| 03:44 | reasons | yes'm. If you did it with the background image it won't work. Please do this. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=612365 |
| 03:44 | macogw | Stwange: with compiz it does. if you switch to metacity, it doesnt |
| 03:44 | bluefoxx | reasons: ok, will check that out |
| 03:44 | Stwange | ah right. that's enough to keep me with compiz :) |
| 03:45 | crabgrass | aside from cat, what's a quick way of putting together several sequential oggs? |
| 03:45 | wease| | darkmystere: i have never heard of anybody splitting (that isnt exaclty splitting) an ISO into so many pieces. i know it is possible to turn an ISO into a couple a files and rejoining them but not to the extent you wish to perform |
| 03:46 | Darkmystere | wease|: Err, then what sizes should i do..a friend needs this iso but his internet sucks so he asked me to put it on my server so he could get it |
| 03:46 | joeb3_ | has the user-switcher stopped working in gutsy for anyone? |
| 03:46 | weeman13221 | um my add/remove programs thing has and any installers i run close out automatically and idk why |
| 03:46 | speeddemon8803 | Darkmystere, I dont think that would evn be possible....as if you try to split it, you might screw up md5's and stuff. |
| 03:46 | joecurlee | hi all, i'm running ubuntu 7.10 and using a dlink bluetooth dongle and trying to get my mac bluetooth keyboard working... i followed the instructions from here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup but I'm still running in to an issue. |
| 03:46 | rjonesx | any reason why setting concurrency=shell would cause HALD to fail on startu? |
| 03:46 | rjonesx | startup |
| 03:47 | crabgrass | hald always fails on startup for me =/ |
| 03:47 | joecurlee | when running "hcitool scan" i get the message "Device is not available: no such device" |
| 03:47 | wease| | darkmystere: best option is to set up the ISO for download and let the person deal with the bandwidth....it will be tough to piece all those files together |
| 03:47 | speeddemon8803 | I agree with wease|, darkmystere. |
| 03:47 | rjonesx | crabgrass: did you check to see if you set concurrency=shell in /etc/init.d/rc ? |
| 03:47 | rjonesx | crabgrass: that is what caused mine to start failing |
| 03:47 | crabgrass | rjonesx: i'm using xfce |
| 03:48 | speeddemon8803 | The other option would be too much of a headache to have to deal with in my opinion, Darkmystere. |
| 03:48 | joecurlee | however when i ran the command "lsusb" i can see the bluetooth dongle "Bus 002 Device 004: ID 0a5c;2033 Broadcom Corp. BCM2033 Bluetooth" |
| 03:48 | rjonesx | crabgrass: you could pretend my answer was valuable, it would make me feel like a better person |
| 03:48 | yo___ | k i did that tutorial.. wifi light is on.. lets see if it works |
| 03:48 | crabgrass | rjonesx: well, i can replace concurrency with xfce, right? |
| 03:48 | yo___ | server not found.. |
| 03:48 | Nick-O | no more ideas? |
| 03:48 | crabgrass | rjonesx: actually, im checking that right now |
| 03:49 | wease| | speeddemon8803: headache, if not impossible with those tiny files dissected (98mb at a time from 2.44gb) |
| 03:49 | macogw | yo___: try a reboot maybe? |
| 03:49 | weeman13221 | yo can anyone help me please with a prob im having, add and remove window program it closes out automatically and any installers i run like the deb package isntaller |
| 03:49 | wease| | reboot with linux? |
| 03:49 | crabgrass | rjonesx: disregard, cocks, etc. |
| 03:49 | yo___ | it doesn't say it needs a reebot macogw |
| 03:49 | macogw | weeman13221: can you install from the command line |
| 03:49 | Darkmystere | thanks guys :) |
| 03:49 | weeman13221 | yeah usually fine |
| 03:49 | crabgrass | rjonesx: it's set to none right now. ill change that and see if it does anything |
| 03:49 | macogw | yo___: drivers load at boot |
| 03:49 | wease| | macogw: yes you can install from command line |
| 03:50 | speeddemon8803 | Your welcome, Darkmystere. |
| 03:50 | rjonesx | crabgrass: was that tourrettes? you just said cocks in the middle of a statement. it was really funny, but kinda weird. |
| 03:50 | macogw | wease|: i didnt ask you |
| 03:50 | yo___ | well the wifi light turned on.. |
| 03:50 | weeman13221 | macogw: its just inconvenient sometimes |
| 03:50 | yo___ | so it must have loaded the driver... |
| 03:50 | crabgrass | rjonesx: bash.org, ones sec. |
| 03:50 | wease| | mcogw: just giving my opinion, this is an open forum |
| 03:50 | macogw | wease|: but its his computer, not yours, so how could you know the symptoms of his problem? |
| 03:51 | Jangari | weeman13221: what do you mean? the add and remove applications application stops working? |
| 03:51 | yo___ | what are some cool things to do in ubuntu that will make me want to install it on my comp even more? |
| 03:51 | weeman13221 | Jangari: like it opens a split second and then just closes out, no error message or anything |
| 03:51 | xopey | help: i placed a .profile in someone's $HOME and set executable. logging in as the user doesn't seem to run the .profile |
| 03:51 | Jangari | you're not running two package managers at the same time, are you? |
| 03:51 | macogw | yo___: compiz |
| 03:51 | crabgrass | rjonesx: http://bash.org/?5775 |
| 03:51 | joecurlee | running "sudo hidd --search" simply returns "Search..." and then the prompt instantly |
| 03:51 | wease| | macogw: haha im sorey. i jumped the gun :) |
| 03:51 | yo___ | how do i do compiz? |
| 03:51 | crabgrass | yo___: carefully |
| 03:52 | yo___ | lol |
| 03:52 | yo___ | but how? =) |
| 03:52 | macogw | yo___: system -> preferences -> appearance -> desktop effects |
| 03:52 | crabgrass | yo___: and for the 'cool things,' nothing you'll notice until youve been using it for a month or so |
| 03:52 | wease| | yo____: do you have ubuntu installed? |
| 03:52 | Jangari | yo___: with the knowledge that you'll have to restart up to 20 times before it actually works |
| 03:52 | crabgrass | yo___: then just TRY going back to windows |
| 03:52 | weeman13221 | Jangari: i dont think so |
| 03:52 | yo___ | on my bros comp yea |
| 03:52 | yo___ | but not on mine |
| 03:52 | macogw | yo___: installing compizconfig-settings-manager will get you neater options |
| 03:52 | crabgrass | yo___: little things like being able to move any window by holding [alt] and dragging anywhere on it, not just the titlebar |
| 03:53 | crabgrass | yo___: little things that make using your machine easier |
| 03:53 | yo___ | mm.. |
| 03:53 | demo_ | dddd |
| 03:53 | J-a-K-e | and multiple work spaces |
| 03:53 | yo___ | i noticed it takes alot longer to boot up than windows does tho.. |
| 03:53 | Jangari | or even the mere fact that no one's getting rich by selling you bad software, yo___ |
| 03:53 | Jangari | take less space than windows |
| 03:54 | weeman13221 | so any ideas anyone as what my prob is? |

| 03:54 | Cody | amenado; How did you want me to do that again? |
| 03:54 | yo___ | wireless doesn't even come up in the network manager anymore? |
| 03:55 | yo___ | weasel: why are you being so critical about someones curiosity? |
| 03:55 | Cody | amenado; by hitting the letter 'e' on what exactly? |
| 03:55 | amenado | Cody once you hit the down/up arrow key, then e for edit |
| 03:56 | Cody | amenado; when grub boots up, I have five options. They are: Ubuntu 7.1 (normal, the messed up one), Ubuntu 7.1 recovery mode (command line only), Ubuntu memory test, Windows XP Pro, Windows Vista. |
| 03:56 | Cody | amenado; You wanted me to see the setup for the live-cd right? |
| 03:56 | J-a-K-e | yes, it's a different system and takes some learning but it actually runs a lot better than windows once you get things setup to your liking in my opinion |
| 03:56 | amenado | Cody your number 2 is your safe mode you said? |
| 03:57 | wease| | yo___: i am critical when the questions become extemporaneous to the process of troubleshooting |
| 03:57 | Cody | amenado; I only have safe mode on the Live-CD, not on my computer. Sorry for the confusion. I don't have safe mode on my computer. |
| 03:57 | Cody | amenado; I have "recovery mode" which is just a command line |
| 03:57 | neo | stuck with yesterday prolem..... |
| 03:57 | neo | stuck with yesterday problem..... |
| 03:57 | crabgrass | netsplit? |
| 03:57 | Cody | amenado; Could I find the file on my Live-CD? |
| 03:57 | amenado | Cody okay, you can modify that recovery mode with exact same parameters as your liveCD safe mode, then boot |
| 03:58 | yo___ | also take into consideration,this is #ubuntu not #ubunustrictlyfortroubleshooting |
| 03:58 | Jangari | one of the smaller servers |
| 03:58 | Kradorex | Hi all - I'm having a slight nuicence problem at the moment... I have superkaramba creating thousands of *.tmp files in /tmp/kde-$username |

| 03:58 | newbie_ | hello, is it possible to view the contents of a webpage if there is a Directory listing denied message? |
| 03:58 | ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about link - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi |
| 03:58 | Kradorex | newbie_: no |
| 03:58 | Kradorex | that's a server issue |
| 03:59 | amenado | Cody i thought you copied all the parameters of the safe mode in liveCD ? |
| 03:59 | m0u5e | sooo... anyone know of a way to view photoshop cs2 cmyk psd files in ubuntu without installing cs2? |
| 03:59 | Cody | amenado; I didn't load up the live CD yet, I thought you said to hit 'e' on a specific option in the live-CD menu |
| 04:00 | wally | holaaaaaaaa |
| 04:00 | amenado | Cody i meant to hit e during liveCD boot so you can copy the parameters |
| 04:00 | Cody | amenado; When I boot with the live CD, I come to the text menu that has "Start or install Ubuntu" and "Start Ubuntu in Safe Graphics Mode) type stuff |

| 04:02 | weeman13221 | yo can anyone help me please with a prob im having, add and remove window program it closes out automatically and any installers i run like the deb package isntaller |
| 04:02 | Cody | So as it's booting up, do I hit 'e' or do I hit E while Safe Graphics Mode is booting up? |
| 04:02 | amenado | Cody-> yes |
| 04:02 | Jewfro-Macabbi | krammer - perhaps it launches from command - type the program name in the terminal |
| 04:02 | amenado | e for edit |
| 04:02 | Cody | alright |
| 04:02 | krammer | it is pidgin |
| 04:02 | Cody | Thanks!, I'll be right back now that I know exactly what to do |
| 04:02 | pist0l-fish | hi, i installed kubuntu off a live cd, and I am trying to open .deb files (ubuntu is built on top of debian, correct?) what do you need to open deb files? |
| 04:02 | ubu2 | my Adobe Flash plugin skips like a broken record. doesn't do this in Windows on the same machine. I've tried older versions of 9 and it helped a little, but it still freezes up and skips like a broken record. when it resumes I've missed a few seconds of video or flash animation. any ideas? |
| 04:02 | werneck | I'm building a custom install, from ubuntu server, but I need to put a minimal xserver in there... I think packages xorg gdm and icewm are ok, but I need everything in the install CD... I already have an extra/ directory configured, but how can I easily download all needed packages to put there? |
| 04:03 | zero88 | Please. Anyone. Is ANYONE in here a wireless Guru? Or just shy of??? I am in desperate need of your help.Please. |
| 04:03 | Jewfro-Macabbi | krammer, have you restarted x? it should launch from command |
| 04:03 | amenado | pist0l-fish-> do you want to extract the files of *.deb ? |
| 04:03 | krammer | i rebooted my machine but it is usually with the internet menu |
| 04:03 | Jangari | ubu2: which flash plugin are you using? |
| 04:04 | krammer | restart x ctrl backspace? |
| 04:04 | pist0l-fish | amenado: I guess I just want to install the contents. I was under the impression that deb was similar to rpm |
| 04:04 | weeman13221 | yo can anyone help me please with a prob im having, add and remove window program it closes out automatically and any installers i run like the deb package isntaller |
| 04:04 | ubu2 | Jangari: the official one from Adobe's website. I also tried many from their archive of old versions (of 9). |
| 04:04 | amenado | pist0l-fish-> yes its similar concept, but you dont extract the contents of rpm file do you? |
| 04:05 | amenado | you can extract, if you really wanted to |
| 04:05 | ubu2 | the flash plugin in the package manager seems to be broken for many people |
| 04:06 | amenado | zero88-> how much are you willing to compensate? hehe |
| 04:06 | yo___ | when i type in sudo lshw -C network lo and eth0 say no wireless extensions, there's no ther little things, what do i do? |
| 04:06 | zero88 | amenado I'll lend you my Benz for the day ;) |
| 04:06 | pist0l-fish | amenado: I don't want to extract |
| 04:07 | yo___ | and it says network unclaimed right over the wireless card informatino? |
| 04:07 | pist0l-fish | amenado: I want to install |
| 04:07 | amenado | pist0l-fish-> then its dpkg -i whatever*.deb |
| 04:07 | Lexda | Nickrud - Thought you'd like to know, for some reason XUbuntu started working randomly today. |

| 04:08 | Lexda | Not really sure why, but when I turned the comp on, it entered into it, and it's quite a bit faster, so I'm happy |
| 04:08 | nickrud | Lexda: glad to hear that |
| 04:08 | nickrud | weeman13221: your question isn't very clear, at all. |
| 04:08 | amenado | pist0l-fish-> what do you mean similar behaviour in KDE? which behaviour was it? |

| 04:10 | weeman13221 | nickrud: dpkg-deb: failed to read archive `install': No such file or directory |
| 04:10 | pist0l-fish | amenado: so there is absolutely no way to get that behaviour through KDE? |

| 04:14 | zero88 | Luderacer, k one sec |
| 04:14 | amenado | yo___-> iwconfig tells you if your wireless is active |
| 04:14 | usser | kuta: yes it is, but it all depends on which distribution you have installed, if its i386 you won't get more than 3gb |
| 04:14 | l33 | How do I increase the Number of loop device from 8 in /dev/loopX? |

| 04:15 | dslfwfs | is it possible to make a wireless bridge with ubuntu? my friend has a linksys accesspoint in the building across the street, and we would like to make linux bridge at my place that would pass ethernet frames. |
| 04:15 | nickrud | weeman13221: wow. You have a serious problem, way over my head. I'm decent with using apt, but what would go on internally to cause a segmentation fault ... |
| 04:15 | l33 | bridge utils |
| 04:15 | amenado | zero88-> umm there was none from ubuntu itself? |
| 04:15 | dslfwfs | connect my lan to his wifi wirelessly. |

| 04:16 | kuta | usser: is there a 64 bit version of ubuntu if I used core 2 dual processor |
| 04:16 | amenado | yo___-> 1st one has to have a working drivers loaded, then activate it |
| 04:16 | zero88 | amenado, LOL no none. Ubuntu didnt even reconize the hardware. Its like it didnt exist. |
| 04:16 | weeman13221 | nickrud: i dunno like, idk why either, cause i havent really messed with anything either |

| 04:26 | amenado | yo___-> does your eth4 has an ip address? |
| 04:26 | weeman13221 | l33 ok so what am i looking for |
| 04:26 | zero88 | amenado im doing it manually with sudo iwconfig esside "" but yes dhcp |
| 04:26 | yo___ | no |
| 04:26 | amenado | zero88-> did it associate? |
| 04:26 | EcoBlue | is there some way to make it not need a password for samba shares |
| 04:28 | yo___ | but it has ESSID |
| 04:28 | amenado | yo___-> get an ip address assigned to your nic and then we can get it going perhaps |
| 04:28 | yo___ | how do i do that? |
| 04:28 | zero88 | amenado no i cant set the essid, well it doesnt still with wlan0, im reading ndiswrapper faqs right now on that rpoblem |
| 04:28 | Lexda | I honestly don't know. I'm somewhat of a Linux newb, and whenever I've had to access other drives, I always have to throw in a password. Gets annoying, but I got used to it. |
| 04:28 | nickrud | weeman13221: your screen turning red, saying some memory is bad. My machine froze with bad memory, but I can imagine getting segfaults instead |
| 04:28 | amenado | yo___-> make it associate to the ap first |
| 04:28 | weeman13221 | nickrud: hmm that would suck cause it seems fine otherwise so ok ill brb |
| 04:28 | yo___ | how? |
| 04:28 | amenado | zero88-> why can you not set the essid for it to associate with? can you not use the nm to set it? |
| 04:28 | yo___ | lol im completely noob |
| 04:28 | nickrud | weeman13221: you'll need to let it run for a couple hours to be sure |

| 04:44 | amenado | CoasterMaster-> you can use update-alternatives to choose your java 5 as default |
| 04:44 | CoasterMaster | amenado, but thanks for your help |
| 04:45 | amenado | Maimster-> sometimes experience is the best teacher, i wish i can tell that to my son to just listen to me..hehe |

| 04:46 | Maimster | amenado: Ah man you got one of those sons too. We should team up and bust both of their assests. |
| 04:46 | CoasterMaster | amenado, I would like to use it to set sun-java5-jdk as the default |
| 04:46 | amenado | CoasterMaster-> well its basically manages the symlinks for different versions you have installed of the same application or jdk/jre for your case |

| 04:51 | StrawberryJesus | My laptop tends to crash after about 8 hours. It's a Compaq NX6110. It's a gradual thing, disks suddenly become unable to unmount, it starts "forgetting" how to open certain files, like MP3's, and Firefox freezes up. Eventually, it crashes me to the login window. Can anyone help? |
| 04:51 | neo | no |
| 04:51 | StrawberryJesus | :( |
| 04:51 | terapicodave | StrawberryJesus: have you run memtest? |
| 04:51 | StrawberryJesus | er... not really... I'll run it now. |
| 04:52 | AHemlocksLie | my Wine won't work, and I get this error when I try to run winecfg and some other files: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/57555/ Does anyone have any idea what could be causing the problem? |
| 04:52 | gyaresu | StrawberryJesus: Sounds like a hardware problem. Memtest86+ is a programme for testing the RAM. There are others as well. |
| 04:52 | amenado | StrawberryJesus-> do you travel that long? hehe 8 hours on your laptop? |
| 04:52 | StrawberryJesus | Stumbleupon. |
| 04:52 | Maimster | amenado: How long have you had your nick? Just being nosey. |
| 04:52 | rouini | any help please!.............help install aim on ubuntu 7.10 without using pdgin internet messenger....i'm fed up with it |
| 04:52 | gyaresu | StrawberryJesus: StrawberryJesus Overheating could be a problem. Does it feel hot? |
| 04:52 | amenado | Maimster-> two weeks maybe? |
| 04:53 | Maimster | lol |
| 04:53 | Maimster | Jeez |
| 04:53 | gyaresu | amenado: kopete? |
| 04:53 | matthias | hi i have ubuntu 7.10 what firewall is to prefer firestarter or iptable and that is easy ti use ... |
| 04:53 | StrawberryJesus | doesn't feel hot. |
| 04:53 | amenado | gyaresu-> i never liked that kopete nor..come to think of it, never got it working right.. |
| 04:54 | ubu2 | I'm having trouble with Adobe Flash lagging with playback. I've looked everywhere for a solution, but to no avail. Regardless of whether the video is streaming or has finished buffering, it will randomly skip/pause and the sound will loop in the duration. When it resumes, it does not resume at the moment it stopped playing so you miss those seconds. The whole PC does not freeze, just flash itself. |
| 04:54 | mkquist | matthias: iptables is built in, firestarter if basically just a front end for it i believe |
| 04:54 | matthias | i will be connected wirelessly to the internet ... and use p2p program but still limit the access to my file from others connected wirelessly to my roputer ... |
| 04:54 | mkquist | mathi |
| 04:54 | amenado | matthias-> iptables is backend of firestarter |
| 04:54 | StrawberryJesus | how long does memtest usually take? |
| 04:54 | mkquist | matthias: u really dont need to d/l anything |
| 04:55 | ubu2 | Are there any optimizations I can do to make Adobe Flash player performance better? I've read that other people have this same issue on new PCs, but I've yet to find a suggestion for a solution. Also, it only happens in Ubuntu, not Winodws. |
| 04:55 | amenado | StrawberryJesus-> long..45 to an hour maybe, you want a rigorous test dont you? |
| 04:55 | matthias | swhat does d/l means ... |
| 04:55 | gyaresu | StrawberryJesus: http://www.memtest.org/ overnight with no errors is usually a good sign. |
| 04:55 | mkquist | matthias: download |
| 04:55 | matthias | sorry what does it mean ... |
| === doff_ is now known as doff |
| 04:55 | matthias | ok |
| 04:55 | m0u5e | matthias: it means to download |
| 04:55 | matthias | so firestarter is the way to go and later on use iptables ... |
| 04:55 | StrawberryJesus | gyaresu: Yeah, I typed in memtest mem all, so I guess it'll be a while. |
| 04:55 | gyaresu | amenado: amenado http://www.aim.com/get_aim/linux/latest_linux.adp |
| 04:56 | amenado | matthias-> firestarter uses iptables |
| 04:56 | gyaresu | amenado: No idea if it sucks. |
| 04:56 | matthias | okey let me try it ... |
| 04:56 | matthias | thank you ... |
| 04:56 | amenado | gyaresu-> actually am trying to hide from pagers..hehe so i can spend time here.. |

| 04:59 | andrew_ | hey guys, i am wondering how to setup my ati card to use the svideo out, its a 9000igp radeon mobility |
| 05:00 | gyaresu | andrew_: Have you tried anything so far? |
| 05:00 | andrew_ | yeah |
| 05:00 | andrew_ | i tried googling different things the other day |
| 05:00 | gyaresu | andrew_: From the ubuntu help? |
| 05:00 | gyaresu | !ati |
| 05:00 | ubotu | To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto |
| 05:00 | armanox | I think that the 9000IGP is an R200 |
| 05:01 | armanox | so |
| 05:01 | andrew_ | its trying to work, when i hit function f4 then it causes a disruption on the tv |
| 05:01 | armanox | hmm... |
| 05:01 | EcoBlue | how do I set samba to allow clients to read and copy from the share without entering a password |
| 05:01 | armanox | which driver are you using? |
| 05:01 | bluefoxx | andrew_: yes?> |
| 05:02 | andrew_ | gyaresu i have the restricted driver already, im just not sure how to set it up, i tinkered with the settings a bit already |
| 05:02 | andrew_ | bluefoxx, i tried to send you a pm, did you get it? |
| 05:02 | armanox | in xorg.conf set the video driver to fglrx |
| 05:03 | dhon__ | andrew_: on my laptop (nvidia graphics) there's an option to set the output tv format to PAL, NTSC etc which caused similar problems to what you're describing |
| 05:03 | dhon__ | Option "TVStandard" "PAL-B" |
| 05:03 | dhon__ | I'm not sure if it applies to ATI cards though |
| 05:04 | armanox | ecoblue - in /etc/samba/smb.conf, find the line that says security = |
| 05:04 | bluefoxx | andrew_: sorry, nope |
| 05:04 | neo | i my college we have two servers installed ,first one is gateway having ip 172.16.4.1 another is gateway to internet having ip 202.103.158.108 ,,,,,,, whenever i try to connect to sites like ¨orkut.com¨ or ¨rapidshare.com¨ it refuses the connection ..... help needed |
| 05:04 | armanox | and change it to security = share |
| 05:04 | jtibau | anyone here is a n800 user? |
| 05:04 | EcoBlue | armanox, I did that, it still asks for a password |
| 05:04 | armanox | did you restart samba after doing that? |
| 05:05 | EcoBlue | yes |
| 05:05 | bluefoxx | neo: that sounds like they have a proxy with a list of servers to refuse |
| 05:05 | gyaresu | EcoBlue: This is one of my file servers smb.conf file: http://gyaresu.pastebin.com/m27d346ff |
| * bluefoxx goes back to debating about pants and related items with his friends on msn |
| 05:06 | zachalink | how do I run as super user? |
| 05:06 | zachalink | su - doesn't work (as said in vmware documentation) |
| 05:06 | armanox | sudo <insert command here> |
| 05:06 | clinton | how is UVC video support in Ubuntu right now? |
| 05:06 | gyaresu | EcoBlue: The shares at the bottom are rw |
| 05:06 | zachalink | o ya |
| 05:06 | zachalink | :P |
| 05:06 | EcoBlue | rw, I want read only, so I'll change that |
| 05:07 | EcoBlue | oh |
| 05:07 | EcoBlue | the security = share line was auto commented out |
| 05:07 | EcoBlue | odd |
| 05:07 | armanox | interesting |
| 05:07 | neo | yea when i open some websites like download.com a cyberoam page appears the url example that is rejected is as¨ http://10.0.0.100:8090/corporate/webpages/clientlogin.jsp ¨ |
| 05:07 | armanox | it defaulted to security = user |
| 05:08 | EcoBlue | Success! |
| 05:08 | neo | wht do u think of this? |
| 05:08 | scott_ | after installing gutenprint-5.0.2 into the computer how do i get it to apply to the printer it still using 5.1 |
| 05:08 | EcoBlue | good going ubuntu, making sense |
| 05:08 | Luderacer | for some reason ubuntu isnt showing all the ram that my laptop has any suggestions? |
| 05:08 | EcoBlue | it actually did |
| 05:08 | macogw | anyone know how to make Gnome-Screensaver pass keys so you can vote on Electric Sheep? |
| 05:08 | armanox | luderacer - how much ram should it show? |
| 05:09 | armanox | and how much is showing |
| 05:09 | Luderacer | 4 gb |
| 05:09 | Luderacer | 3 gb |
| 05:09 | macogw | i know there's a hacked xscreensaver for doing it, but it doesn't compile |
| 05:09 | gyaresu | EcoBlue: EcoBlue What did you change to get it to work? |
| 05:09 | andrew_ | i figured out how to change the splash screen bg color |
| 05:09 | armanox | luderacer - are you runing a 32bit or 64bit system / kernel? |
| 05:09 | EcoBlue | uncommented security=share and added null_passwords = yes |
| 05:09 | Luderacer | 32 |
| 05:09 | andrew_ | anyone know about using aticonfig to try to setup s video out? when i tried to run it in the terminal then it said to install it and the command includes the line fglrx, which messed up my comp before |
| 05:10 | Luderacer | dual core thou |
| 05:10 | armanox | try a 64bit kernel |
| 05:10 | Luderacer | anyway to upgrade to 64 with out redoing every thing? |
| 05:10 | gyaresu | EcoBlue: From a default smb.conf (cause i've been copying the same one across for years and just hacking it.) |
| 05:10 | neo | bluefoxx: yea when i open some websites like download.com a cyberoam page appears the url example that is rejected is as¨ http://10.0.0.100:8090/corporate/webpages/clientlogin.jsp ¨ |
| === dgtlchlk is now known as dgtl|screen |
| 05:10 | armanox | luderacer - there is but i don't know it |
| 05:10 | EcoBlue | gyaresu, from a default smb.conf |
| 05:10 | gyaresu | EcoBlue: Thanks. |
| 05:11 | EcoBlue | I used gnome's handy right click share thing to make all the folders appear |
| 05:11 | Luderacer | mmm thanks armanox ill look on the forum |
| 05:11 | armanox | kk |
| 05:11 | Luderacer | i just upgraded it now to 4gb |
| 05:11 | Luderacer | bios shows 3 usable only |
| 05:11 | Luderacer | figured it had to be a os issue |
| 05:11 | armanox | .... |
| 05:11 | matthias | Hi ihave installed firestarter but i have doubts about firestarter ... |
| 05:12 | EcoBlue | 32bit has a limit of about 3 gigs |
| 05:12 | Pkunk | is any of the software launchpad.net available for GPL use ? |
| 05:12 | armanox | what proc do you have? |
| 05:12 | matthias | i like to restrict all access to my comuter but this irc still works ... |
| 05:12 | Luderacer | dual intel core 1.6 |
| 05:12 | armanox | err |
| 05:12 | armanox | that's a 32bit proc |
| 05:12 | bluefoxx | neo: then they have a proxy in there. my school has something like that, squid i belive its called. you can find proxy avoiding servers somethimes though |
| 05:12 | matthias | how can i veryfy that he firewall really denies access and permits ... |
| 05:12 | scott_ | i just got a epson cx9400 but no drivers it whats to use 8400 drivers but they don't work |
| 05:12 | macogw | Luderacer: maybe you can just install the 64bit kernel and itll all switch? |
| 05:12 | armanox | it will not work with more then 3gb ram |
| 05:12 | Pkunk | i want to make a bugs site that works like ubuntu's bugs on launchpad.net |
| 05:13 | macogw | Luderacer: if you have a /home directory at least that stuff wont have to be redone during a fresh install |

| 05:13 | matthias | i have an router that suppose to denie access but how can i know ... |
| 05:13 | andrew_ | bluefoxx: sudo to /etc/gdm/PreSession then edit the file in there, at the bottom is a bg color # you can edit |
| 05:13 | armanox | yeah...you can't use a 64bit kernel |
| 05:13 | Luderacer | mmm |
| 05:13 | gyaresu | Pkunk: Dude seriously... google Like Sourceforge and Google Code Hosting Launchpad is not open source. Unlike those other services, we have committed to making Launchpad Free Software. |
| 05:13 | Luderacer | =( |

| 05:23 | Daisuke_Laptop | that's what i thought, i just wanted to double-check and make sure |
| 05:23 | praetor | had me worried too |
| 05:23 | prettyricky | I go to application--->system tools-----> and hit virtual box |
