| 00:00 | teq | nickrud: i dont remember how i installed it, i have firefox 3 the lastest version |
| 00:00 | amenado | david_-> what is this Nero you have downloaded, is it a tar.gz file? did you read the instructions how to install it from the site you downloaded it from? |
| 00:00 | Raymonde | Hello o/ |
| 00:00 | david_ | Thanks to both but no help in Nero. Amenado no its not tar |
| 00:00 | hp2133 | I just picked up a 50-in-1 reader/writer for various memory cards (CF, MMC, etc). It works on my son's vista laptop, but doesn't light up or work on hardy. It shows up as a high speed USB device using ehci_hcd, but not as a disk. Ideas? |
| 00:00 | teq | nickrud: but all of my shortcuts execute old version |
| 00:00 | mgreen | glitsj16: actually /usr/bin/firefox -> firefox-3.0 in hardy |
| 00:00 | amenado | david_-> is it a .deb file? |
| 00:00 | david_ | Amenado it's the trial for Nero 3 for Linuz |
| 00:00 | nickrud | teq, it matters a lot. If you used synaptic, you just need to be sure all instances of firefox are exited. If you installed it as a binary from mozilla, you would have to change some stuff to use it over the ubuntu version |
| 00:01 | glitsj16 | mrgreen: that didn't work for teq he just said |
| 00:01 | amenado | david_-> there's got to be an install instructions, or else no one going to be able to use it |
| 00:01 | teq | nickrud: i think i installed it as a binary |
| 00:01 | mgreen | glitsj16: it's a standard hardy symlink. sorry for missing the issue. |
| 00:01 | nickrud | teq, ok, where did you install it? |
| 00:01 | Comedy | Hi, anyone know where the compiz config file is on 7.10?.. I've enabled visual effects but want to customise a bit more than 'display preferences' lets you |
| 00:01 | glitsj16 | mrgreen: no problem |
| 00:01 | david_ | Well that's the position I'm in right now. |
| 00:01 | teq | nickrud: leme check |
| 00:01 | yyy_ | is there a way to have a remote shell to set a local xterm title? (Ie I would like to have bash, running on a remote machine via ssh, to set the title of the xterm running on my local machine) |
| === tolecnal_ is now known as tolecnal |
| 00:02 | glitsj16 | mgreen: and sorry for calling you mrgreen :) |
| 00:02 | amenado | david_-> you have google to assist you, find out where you downloaded it from and read the instructions from there |
| 00:02 | david_ | zvacet - how do I know if its a bin file? |
| 00:02 | nickrud | teq, I'm assuming this is not ubuntu 8.04 you are using? |
| 00:02 | teq | nickrud: 7.10 |
| 00:02 | Raymonde | Hum... I need some help :/ I can't install and use mercury. I had yesterday ( but I had formated, accidently :x ( sorry for my very bad English ) ) |
| 00:02 | zvacet | david_ : did you downloaded deb file fron nero site |
| 00:02 | nickrud | teq ok. |
| 00:02 | mgreen | glitsj16: it's the fourth time in two days. no biggy ;) the 'm' is for my first name, so you're not really off |
| 00:02 | teq | nickrud: home/eduardo/firefox |

| === palmtree__ is now known as palmtree |
| 00:03 | david_ | zvacet Yes I did download from Nero - I suppose it's a deb file? How would I know |

| 00:03 | david_ | I'm completely lost. |
| 00:03 | mgreen | teq: what version are you on? firefox 3 is standard in Hardy Heron |
| 00:03 | teq | nickrud:7.10 |
| 00:04 | teq | mgreen: 7.10 |
| 00:04 | zvacet | david_ : because you can choose between deb and rpm on that site choose deb for your arch |
| 00:04 | amenado | david_-> you wont get lost if you read some, go back to the site you found info on nero and read the blurbs |
| 00:04 | nickrud | teq, ok, do this: mkdir ~/bin && ln -s ~/firefox/firefox ~/bin . Then close that terminal, open another and try running firefox from the terminal |

| 00:06 | david_ | Thanks a million legend2440 I will try that |

| 00:06 | bsrat | or i could just plug in the other harddrive to the motherboard when i want windoze - manual dualboot =) |
| 00:06 | mgreen | teq: sure, but there is a backport way to do the installation that is recommended |

| 00:07 | nickrud | mgreen, 3.0 is in gutsy-backports? |
| 00:07 | teq | nickrud: that worked, did that fixed my shortcuts aswell? |
| 00:07 | tmc_ | Add the following line (uncomment line) to the vsftpd configuration file: |

| 00:07 | riegersn | anyone have any ideas? |
| 00:07 | mgreen | nickrud: http://packages.ubuntu.com/gutsy-backports/web/ |
| 00:08 | nickrud | teq, eventually, yes. do cat ~/.bashrc , and look at the very end. You should see something like if [ -d $HOME/bin ]; then export PATH=$HOME/bin:$PATH fi |
| 00:08 | teq | MuzikJunkie2: glx-new is a restriced driver |
| 00:08 | tmc_ | !amenado local_enable=YES cant add it Add the following line (uncomment line) to the vsftpd configuration file: |

| 00:08 | tmc_ | hmm |
| 00:09 | tmc_ | how i do a message to a name? |
| 00:09 | amenado | tmc_-> why you can not add it? did you follow the steps step2 sudo vi /etc/vsftpd.conf ? |
| 00:09 | teq | nickrud: it says if [ -f /etc/bash_completion ]; then . /etc/bash_completion |
| 00:09 | riegersn | !hostname |
| 00:09 | ubottu | Use hostname <somehostname> to set the hostname, or to do it permanently: edit /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts . WARNING! Make sure that your current hostname and /etc/hosts match, otherwise sudo may not work properly. Alternatively, use the gui at system>administration>networking on the "General" tab |
| 00:09 | nickrud | teq, another choice (fits better with ubuntu) is system->admin=>software sources , updates tab and enabling backports. then sudo apt-get install firefox-3.0 |
| 00:09 | tmc_ | did that |
| 00:09 | tmc_ | i see a big list but... cant write anything |
| 00:09 | amenado | tmc_-> look you have to put a nick in front.. |
| 00:10 | mgreen | teq and nickrud, sorry to intervene again... but are you guys sure you're on the right track? |

| 00:10 | tmc_ | help |
| 00:10 | amenado | tmc_-> do you know how to use vim or vi ? |
| 00:10 | tmc_ | no |
| 00:10 | teq | nickrud: there isnt any option to enable backports |
| 00:10 | mgreen | !backports | teq |
| 00:10 | ubottu | teq: If new updated Ubuntu packages are built for an application, then they may go into Ubuntu Backports. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports - See also !packaging |

| 00:10 | nickrud | mgreen, he's just got to get firefox (binary) on the path, and having the link in ~/bin works very well since he put the binary in his home |
| 00:11 | tmc_ | nano vi /etc bla bla bla? |
| 00:11 | nickrud | teq, I don't have gutsy, see if backports is listed on any of those tabs |

| 00:11 | amenado | tmc_ you need to do some prior legwork, i can not assist you on every step, you have to learn how to use an editor |
| 00:11 | mgreen | nickrud: yes, that will work, but it's not a very good way to do it |

| 00:30 | Dusk_ | my wireless speed is at half with rt73usb driver |
| 00:30 | Dusk_ | what should i do? |
| 00:30 | bonhoffer | i am trying to decide between ubuntu and a dedicated nas (openfiler, freenas) |
| 00:30 | AMDpenguin | Should i keep the source code directory that i compiled from |
| 00:30 | bonhoffer | can ubuntu do everything that these can (software raid, etc) |
| 00:30 | bonhoffer | ? |
| 00:30 | AMDpenguin | Is it safe to delete it? |
| 00:30 | nickrud | AMDpenguin, yes, if you ever intend to uninstall |
| 00:30 | krajan | AMDpenguin yes |
| 00:30 | krajan | AMDpenguin yes, delete |
| 00:30 | holyhell | nickrud thats option number 1, even though it says resiye SCI§ partition 3 ? |
| 00:30 | riegersn | i want to set up 2 workstations with ubuntu on the same network. I'm installing the second one now. should i set the hostname to be the same? |
| 00:30 | riegersn | anyone? |
| 00:31 | Dusk_ | krajan, can you help me please no one cares |
| 00:31 | nickrud | holyhell, memory says there's another option that doesn't resize while using guided |
| 00:31 | echosystm | guys, i did a default ubuntu install, where the entire hard drive is one partition mounted at / |
| 00:31 | Dusk_ | krajan, i have the exact problem in this thread -----> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=858131 |
| 00:31 | krajan | Dusk_ sory but my wireless works great and I can't help you |
| 00:31 | nickrud | Dusk_, I care, but have no answer. Never used that one |
| 00:31 | holyhell | guided: use the largest continous free space |
| 00:31 | echosystm | how would i go about removing and reinstalling ubuntu, but keeping the files in /home ? |
| 00:31 | nickrud | holyhell, that's the one |
| 00:31 | holyhell | thx |
| 00:31 | __yy | echosystm: you'll have to back them up somewhere |
| 00:31 | Dusk_ | pfffff every other distro is ok but why ubuntu :( |
| 00:32 | echosystm | god, that is annoying |
| 00:32 | SUPEROGT | Hi, i'm trying to install flash player 9 on firefox 3 in my ubuntu so i downloaded the tar.gz from adobe's webpage but when ask for the installation path i have no clue... i tried /usr/lib/firefox and /urs/lib/mozilla but nothing... Any advise? |
| 00:32 | TiredWolf | echosystm: easiest way is to backup somewhere, really. if you use the alternate CD, it's possible to keep home, but you need to be careful and know what you're doing |
| 00:32 | orgthingy | Dusk_ : ubuntu isnt for "showing off" distribution |
| 00:32 | holyhell | it gave me an error and it said its too small to be partioned @ nickrud |
| 00:32 | echosystm | so, when i reinstall i should make a dedicated /home partition? |
| 00:32 | __yy | echosystm: that's why is usually a good idea to put /home on another partition |
| 00:32 | orgthingy | if you want to show off your "skills" then use Slackware |
| 00:32 | holyhell | i thought 6 gigs is enough for ubuntu |
| 00:32 | echosystm | ok |
| 00:32 | Dusk_ | orgthingy, what do you mean by showing off? |
| 00:32 | TiredWolf | echosystm: that's up to you, but it's a setup i'd recommend |
| 00:32 | orgthingy | if you love compiling, then use Gentoo |
| 00:32 | nickrud | echosystm, use the alternate cd to install, move all your stuff in /home to /data, manually delete all other directories, then when you install do manual partitioning and tell it to NOT format the drive |
| 00:32 | echosystm | i'll do that then |
| 00:32 | echosystm | cheers |
| 00:32 | echosystm | :) |
| 00:32 | orgthingy | Dusk_ : dictionary.com |

| 00:38 | cellofellow | how do I use Audacity with two input devices? |
| 00:39 | W8TAH | whats the difference between upgrade and dist-upgrade? |
| 00:39 | nickrud | W8TAH, fundamental difference is dist-upgrade can remove packages, upgrade cannot. dist-upgrade is used to move from one release to another, upgrade to update packages within a release |

| 00:41 | krajan | vices: n/p |
| 00:42 | nickrud | !ask | Mr_Fixit |
| 00:42 | ubottu | Mr_Fixit: 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. :-) |
| 00:42 | echosystm | if i want ubuntu and windaz on one computer |
| 00:42 | Mr_Fixit | i asked the question... |
| 00:42 | echosystm | what is the best way to share "my docs" ? |
| 00:42 | Mr_Fixit | i'm screwed with a tlc problem... |
| 00:42 | Pelo | nickrud, you can say it a few more times I can use the ego boost |
| 00:42 | Pelo | ;-) |
| 00:43 | echosystm | does ubuntu have full ntfs support? |
| 00:43 | Mr_Fixit | i can't seem to find or locate the tlc while i'm compiling an eggy |
| 00:43 | SealedWithAKiss | Where are all of the Synaptic config files stored? |
| 00:43 | krajan | echosystm : I think yes, my HDD's (ntfs) works fine (read,write) |
| 00:43 | Pelo | SealedWithAKiss, what exactly are you looking for ? |
| 00:43 | bonhoffer | so any tutorials on setting up software raid with ubuntu? |
| 00:44 | Mr_Fixit | echosystm: go to repos and search for ntfs |
| 00:44 | Pelo | !raid | bonhoffer |
| 00:44 | ubottu | bonhoffer: Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RaidConfigurationHowto and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO - For software RAID, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto |
| 00:44 | osfameron | echosystm: or just use FAT, which is supported out of the box |
| 00:44 | SealedWithAKiss | Pelo, I was recently instructed to modify some kind of Synaptic configuration file on my computer, only I can't remember which one. Now Synaptic isn't working. |
| 00:45 | teq | hi! how do i get the lastest version of compiz-fusion? thanks! |
| 00:45 | echosystm | osfameron: my hard drive is too big to use FAT |
| 00:45 | osfameron | echosystm: well, you could use FAT for a shared docs partition |
| 00:45 | Pelo | SealedWithAKiss, this channel is loged, you can try checking those out if you remember the day so you can find the instructions you were given again |
| 00:45 | W8TAH | is there a package of tools that will allow me to use my laptop like a fluke tool to analyze netowrk links etc? |
| 00:46 | osfameron | echosystm: then use ext3 for the linux and ntfs for windows, or whatever you want to use |
| 00:46 | Mr_Fixit | while trying to install an eggy with ./configure it spits out cannot locate tcl to compile... |
| 00:46 | nickrud | teq, you'd have to compile it |
| 00:46 | CorpseFeeder | Hi. What do I need to install in Hardy to get commercially bought DVDs to play? |
| 00:46 | Mr_Fixit | *i have it installed but can't locate the files it's looking for.. |

| 00:47 | Mr_Fixit | can't figure it out still... |
| 00:47 | mysticdarkhack | anyone know when they will update to firefox 3.0.1 in repository? |
| 00:47 | krajan | CorpseFeeder: codec's ? or movie player ?... |
| 00:47 | susanna777 | hi i have a quick question |
| 00:47 | teq | nickrud: how |
| 00:47 | vices | krajan: thanks :) |
| 00:47 | SealedWithAKiss | Pelo, nah. I don't remember the day. I'm not on here much, would it be possible to search the logs for conversations of specific users? |
| 00:47 | krajan | vices, yes it can be, its your choice |
| 00:47 | vices | krajan: got it :) |
| 00:47 | teq | nickrud: sudo apt-get install compiz-fusion? |
| 00:47 | CorpseFeeder | krajan, yes, codecs needed to play encrypted discs |
| 00:47 | nickrud | Mr_Fixit, you probably need the tcl headers, tcl8.5-dev |
| 00:47 | Pelo | SealedWithAKiss, yes, the logs are just html or txt file , your choice you can crtl_f them , but they are devided in days |

| 00:48 | susanna777 | echosystm, yeah it does |
| 00:48 | SealedWithAKiss | Ooops! |
| 00:48 | nickrud | teq, no, getting the source from the developers and compiling it. The best way to get the latest version of ubuntu |
| 00:48 | echosystm | why is this? |
| 00:48 | echosystm | i cant even watch youtube :( |
| 00:48 | susanna777 | echosystm, the flash videos are always blocking the menus |
| 00:49 | teq | nickrud: ahh too bad for me, 8.04 doesnt work on my box |
| 00:49 | nickrud | SealedWithAKiss, ah, ouch. put a copy of /etc/apt/sources.list on paste.ubuntu.com. May have too many there, and need to make an adjustment there or in a setting |
| 00:49 | susanna777 | echosystm, youtube works though, but i don't watch it much cause there usually aren't any subitles, and I'm HOH |
| 00:49 | osfameron | echosystm: adobe's engineers prioritize Windows and Mac. Are you surprised? |
| 00:49 | echosystm | in windows, youtube runs at full speed. on here, i get frame skip. |

| 00:52 | krajan | echosystm : do you have graphic acceleration ? |
| 00:52 | riegersn | anyone else find it annoying that picasa forces you to give a folder name on import instead of just sorting and naming folder by date taken like most photo organizers? Is there anyway to change this? |
| 00:53 | SealedWithAKiss | nickrud, http://paste.ubuntu.com/29789/ |
| 00:53 | susanna777 | riegersn, why not just name the folder the date? |
| 00:53 | nickrud | FAJALOU, prevents editing the grub options for an os stanza from the grub command line |
| 00:53 | FAJALOU | nickrud: so is it the same thing as it being pw protected? |
| 00:53 | susanna777 | does anyone use myth tv or a similar tv media center? |

| 00:54 | Xamusk | though using the IP directly goes fine |
| 00:54 | ailean | could someone help me get my built-in microphone to work on my acer laptop? |
| 00:54 | SealedWithAKiss | nickrud, is it really that painful? ol |
| 00:54 | Mr_Fixit | !eggdrop > Mr_Fixit |
| 00:54 | ubottu | mr_fixit, please see my private message |
| 00:54 | nickrud | FAJALOU, no, if it's password protected you need the password to boot. If you know the password to boot, you can still edit the grub boot line during boot, unless it's locked |
| 00:54 | susanna777 | riegersn, oh i haven't used the program |
| 00:54 | DavidCanarias | I just downloaded Nero 3 trial for Linux and have it in my downloads file. Can anyone tell me how to actually install it please. |
| 00:55 | riegersn | susanna777, what do you use for photos? |
| 00:55 | FAJALOU | nickrud: so if it's locked, you cannot access that entry in grub? |
| 00:55 | susanna777 | riegersn, oh i don't take photos |
| 00:55 | Pelo | later folks |
| 00:55 | nickrud | FAJALOU, you cannot 'edit' it |
| 00:55 | susanna777 | riegersn, my mom does, but she uses windows |
| 00:55 | nickrud | FAJALOU, by editing, I mean changing the boot options on the fly during boot |
| 00:55 | holyhell | · if i use the guided resiye SCSI3 (0,0,0) partition #3 (sda) and use freed space option, it will leave my mac one intact? |

| 00:56 | orgthingy | i dont know how to make slideshows in linux :( |
| 00:56 | nickrud | SealedWithAKiss, can be, yes. did you try to do a dist upgrade? And mixing feisty with dapper is really bad, since they are more than one release apart |
| 00:56 | bobertdos | DavidCanarias: What type of file is it? |
| 00:56 | FAJALOU | nickrud: ok so if i restarted my computer, and in grub there is a lock on an entry then i would not be able to boot to it, correct? |
| 00:56 | DavidCanarias | Can anyone please tell me how to install a Nero 3 program Ive just downloaded as I'm new to all this. Thanks |
| 00:57 | openg | a |
| 00:57 | holyhell | · if i use the guided resiye SCSI3 (0,0,0) partition #3 (sda) and use freed space option, it will leave my mac one intact? URGENT DONT WANT TO LOSE DATA. Should I hit continue and can I be safe? |
| 00:57 | DavidCanarias | bobertdos - thanks. it's an rpm file |
| 00:57 | SealedWithAKiss | Nickrud, well the file you just told me to paste wasn't the one that guy made me edit, and things were fine before with that file just the way it is. |
| 00:57 | nickrud | FAJALOU, you can boot to it. During boot, you can edit the entry, changing how it boots. Lock prevents that |
| 00:57 | bobertdos | DavidCanarias: Oh, and you're using Hardy Heron, right? |
| 00:57 | oobe | DavidCanarias, you need to get the deb file |
| 00:58 | openg | whats the keys on ubuntu like windows has ctrl atl del |
| 00:58 | oobe | nero has them |
| 00:58 | DavidCanarias | bobertdos - thats right |
| 00:58 | openg | what is it for ubuntu |
| 00:58 | FAJALOU | nickrud: so if i wanted it to ask a pw before it boots to the specified entry i would have to use the password --md5 <password> ? |
| 00:58 | DavidCanarias | oobe how do I get the deb file |
| 00:58 | wli | not sure |
| 00:58 | bobertdos | oobe: Well, he can try alien first. |
| 00:58 | nickrud | SealedWithAKiss, ok, then: grep -r Cache-Limit /etc/apt/ , does that bring any output? Capitalization matters |
| 00:58 | bobertdos | oobe: if he wants to, that is |
| 00:58 | B|ackPanther | How do i add running applications to a panel or make the panel show them ? |
| 00:58 | bastid_raZor | holyhell; what partition is OSX installed on? |
| 00:59 | DavidCanarias | bobertdos and oobe. Have I got the wrong file downloaded then??? |
| 00:59 | DavidCanarias | Mine is an rpm file and I need alien - whats that??? |
| 00:59 | holyhell | well i only have the osx partition and then i created 6 gigs for windows in bootcamp but its emptz @ bastid_raZor |
| 00:59 | bobertdos | DavidCanarias: Well, if there IS a deb file available, that would be better. |
| 00:59 | oobe | DavidCanarias, next time get a deb file you can try to use alien but it will go much smoother since you dont know much about linux to just re download nero as a deb from there site |
| 01:00 | nickrud | FAJALOU, now, password protecting a single boot os, that's something I'm not sure of, I've never done ti |
| 01:00 | ailean | could someone help me get my built-in microphone to work on my acer laptop? |
| 01:00 | susanna777 | has anyone used myth tv or can anyone tell me if it displays closed captioning or not? |

| 01:00 | orgthingy | HOW :'( |
| 01:00 | orgthingy | please help! |
| 01:00 | FAJALOU | nickrud: who said it was single boot? ;) |
| 01:00 | bastid_raZor | holyhell; that isn't what i asked, which partition is OSX installed on.. since it is giving you the exact partition is going to to install to. but regradless it is best to manually make a partition for ubuntu from the free space you have. you'll be resizing the partition that has OSX on it probably |
| 01:00 | DavidCanarias | bobertdos y oobe - OK I'll try to get a deb file. But what do I need to do after its downloaded to install it |
| 01:00 | nickrud | http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/debian-26/dynamic-mmap-ran-out-of-room-error-when-adding-new-apt-source-list-233417/ , use the post just below the one mentioning 8388608 ;) |
| 01:01 | holyhell | i am just gonna give up guys it think and run ubuntu from the cd |
| 01:01 | holyhell | if i ever need it |
| 01:01 | oobe | DavidCanarias, e.g dpkg -i nero.deb |
| 01:01 | nickrud | FAJALOU, I understand what you're saying, I meant say I had ubuntu debian and windows all booting, having a password for just one. I've always locked all three |
| 01:01 | holyhell | i dont wanna screw up my data and brand new macbook |
| 01:01 | gway9000 | orgthingy: open office |
| 01:01 | susanna777 | orgthingy, open office presentation |
| 01:01 | bastid_raZor | holyhell; run ubuntu in a virtual machine on your mac |
| 01:02 | DavidCanarias | oobe thanks I will try that |
| 01:02 | nickrud | holyhell, heh. Do a backup, and if it's a totally new install, what's to loose ;) |
| 01:02 | totec | where can i download doom 3 for linux ? |
| 01:02 | bastid_raZor | totec; use google to find it. |
| 01:02 | holyhell | nickrud and bastid_raZor I have VMWARE fusion on my mac, could i use that as a virtual machine somehow then? |
| 01:02 | DavidCanarias | oobe - sorry again.... what is dpkg -i nero.deb the name of the file I should try to get |
| 01:02 | FAJALOU | nickrud: so passwording them is a good idea? |
| 01:03 | oobe | DavidCanarias, you can also try k3b its a native free burning app for linux |
| 01:03 | nickrud | holyhell, I use virtualbox to run ubuntu on my work machine (where I"m at) |
| 01:03 | holyhell | do u run it within windows? |
| 01:03 | oobe | DavidCanarias, nero.deb was an example i dont know what the file should be called |
| 01:03 | bastid_raZor | holyhell; ofcourse you could. |
| 01:03 | holyhell | yay |
| 01:03 | holyhell | i never knew that |
| 01:03 | nickrud | FAJALOU, if you plan on passwording, I'd use the bios password. If they can boot anything, all hard disk passwords are defeatable |

| 01:04 | nickrud | http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/debian-26/dynamic-mmap-ran-out-of-room-error-when-adding-new-apt-source-list-233417/ , use the post just below the one mentioning 8388608 ;) (I posted this, but forgot your nick, sorry SealedWithAKiss ) |
| 01:04 | powertoo108 | is there a way to install ubuntu to a computer that doesn't have a video card? |
| * tj83 wonders windows,withVM,with ubuntu all on 6 gigs? |
| 01:04 | roney | I upgraded to FF 3 and now i cant watch any videos Can anyone help |
| 01:05 | nickrud | holyhell, yes |
| 01:05 | DavidCanarias | oobe Ive tried k3b and like it. I am having a problem making an mp3 cd from audio music that's why I am trying Nero as Im giving up |
| 01:05 | holyhell | tj83 noo |
| 01:05 | holyhell | 6 gigs was reserved for ubuntu |
| 01:05 | roney | I upgraded to FF 3 and now i cant watch any videos Can anyone help |
| 01:05 | glitsj16 | roney: do you have the needed plugins for video support in firefox ? |
| 01:05 | tj83 | holyhell, still 6 gigs really isnt enough in my opinion for ubuntu alone |
| 01:05 | roney | I think so |
| 01:05 | Comedy | Does anyone know what package mp4box comes with?.. i have it installed but it's corrupt and I want to reinstall. just dont know how |
| 01:05 | holyhell | allright |
| 01:05 | oobe | DavidCanarias, http://www.nero.com/eng/downloads-linux3-trial.php get deb 32 if you have 32 bit installed or 64 if you have 64 from that link |
| 01:05 | Raz0R | hey, after i updated to -21 kernel, i ran the system updates and there was a problem during install. could this be the reason that when i try to boot into the -21 kernel i get stuck at "setting sytem clock""??? |
| 01:06 | roney | Java right |
| 01:06 | bobertdos | powertoo108: Well, every computer has to have a video device of some form. Do you mean one that has no 3D card? |
| 01:06 | FAJALOU | in software sources, it says that important security updates isn't checked, and when i check it, no check comes on it, what is wrong? and or how can i check to make sure that they are on? |
| 01:06 | nickrud | tj83, its ok for testing purposes. I'd rather see someone use 6gb they have to spare than not try at all |
| 01:06 | holyhell | for a virtual disc i donT need to do any partitioning, right_ |
| 01:06 | magilum | Hello, I recently migrated from Thunderbird to Evolution, and now every time I try to encrypt a message with gpg to someone else, I get an error saying that the public key doesn't exist in my keyring. Does anyone know how I can get this working? |
| 01:06 | bastid_raZor | holyhell; no, it is just a file on your computer |
| 01:06 | holyhell | love it |
| 01:06 | roney | glitsj16 ive played around with all the settings and still it won't work |
| 01:06 | holyhell | give me a minute and sry about the delay i am on dialup |
| 01:06 | DavidCanarias | OOBE this is the one I downloaded and it is in my downloads file. I don't know what to do now to install it?????? Any ideas |
| 01:07 | tj83 | nickrud, hmm.. i certainly agree, but re-evaluating options would be my choice move.. why do we need windows again? |
| 01:07 | glitsj16 | roney: no Java will not do for regular video playing in firefox, look into mozilla-mplayer (which depends on mplayer) |
| 01:07 | nickrud | SealedWithAKiss, did you get that last? |
| 01:07 | powertoo108 | bobertdos: no, it doesn't have a card at all, after the install I will ssh into it |
| 01:07 | bastid_raZor | holyhell; heh, you're going to be ages trying to update ubuntu :\ |
| 01:07 | holyhell | ok back to a single volume |
| 01:07 | kushalsejwal | Is there any way by which I can hide folder like $RECYCLE.BIN, RECYCLER & System Volume Information which are hidden in windows |
| 01:07 | roney | glitsj16: thanks will look into it |
| 01:07 | DavidCanarias | OOBE sorry I downloaded rpm no deb. I'll download deb, but after that what do I do? |
| 01:07 | fwaokda | I can't get me partition to resize so I'm gonna just format completely and reinstall. BUT my broadcom wireless doesn't work without some tweaking. I don't remember how I got it to work the first time... how can I find out how to set it up after I reinstall because its my only way of getting on the internet atm. |
| 01:07 | holyhell | i just want to get it installed and i will do updates when i am back in the city |
| 01:07 | nickrud | tj83, work ;( |
| 01:07 | SealedWithAKiss | nickrud, yes. |
| 01:07 | holyhell | i am currently in the middle of nowhere on a lake, using the phone line |
| 01:08 | bastid_raZor | kushalsejwal; put mv folder .folder a . will hide folders |
| 01:08 | nickrud | SealedWithAKiss, I'm getting ready to head home, could you try that edit real quickly? |
| 01:08 | bobertdos | powertoo108: Oh, I see...........hmm......... |
| 01:08 | oobe | DavidCanarias, open up a console and type "sudo dpkg -i filename.deb" replace file name with the actual file name |
| 01:08 | ailean | could someone help me get my built-in microphone to work on my acer laptop? |
| 01:08 | kushalsejwal | bastid_raZor: I didnt understand can you kindly elaborate |
| 01:08 | nickrud | tj83, although, I still do 90% of my work in ubuntu in vbox anyway. Just access is left |
| 01:08 | Raz0R | is it possible to install the -21 kernel again, from scratch?? |
| 01:09 | bobertdos | DavidCanarias: So, there's no deb? |
| 01:09 | bastid_raZor | kushalsejwal; in terminal type mv folder .folder by putting a . in front of a folder it will hide it. |
| 01:09 | holyhell | so first question, should i use UBUNTU 64bit or just ubuntu? |
| 01:09 | DavidCanarias | OOBE Thanks a million...... I will try |
| 01:09 | kushalsejwal | if I pur a dot "." at the folder name it might cause cause problem in windows as these folders are system folders isnt it?? |
| 01:09 | tj83 | maybe could resize windows a bit to squeeze for ubuntu? |
| 01:09 | xlukasx | holyhell, what kind of computer ya got? |
| 01:09 | nickrud | holyhell, just ubuntu, it's good enough |
| 01:09 | holyhell | its a new macbook os x |
| 01:09 | holyhell | it can handle it though i think :D |
| 01:09 | DavidCanarias | bobertdos . It seems I downloaded the wrong file so Im now downloading a deb file. Thanks for your help Fingers crossed |
| 01:10 | bastid_raZor | holyhell; 32bit is less of a hassle to get everything running correctly |
| 01:10 | holyhell | is it not worth it @ Nickrud? |
| 01:10 | holyhell | kool |
| 01:10 | holyhell | normal ubuntu then |
| 01:10 | nickrud | holyhell, I've run both, and actually saw no diff |
| 01:10 | xlukasx | thats your best bet |
| 01:10 | nickrud | holyhell, in performance, bastid_raZor is right about easier to run |
| 01:10 | holyhell | ok |
| 01:10 | holyhell | its done, normal ubuntu |
| 01:10 | bastid_raZor | kushalsejwal; oh, you're on a windows partition.. i can't help you any farther then.. sorry |
| 01:11 | holyhell | okay i got about 50 gigs free space, but since i am just sort of giving ubuntu a chance, how much disc space should i give it? 8 then? |
| 01:11 | xlukasx | are you dual booting or going for full install? |
| 01:11 | nickrud | SealedWithAKiss, gotta leave in a minute or two. If I don't hear from you, I'll be back on line in about an hour or so. |
| 01:11 | spiel_mit_feuer | can anynoe see me? |
| 01:11 | SealedWithAKiss | nickrud, i'm trying. |
| 01:11 | roney | Glitsj16: Hey thanks it works great now |
| 01:11 | holyhell | i am doing virtual machine |
| 01:11 | spiel_mit_feuer | wow.. i dont like xchat at all |
| 01:11 | bastid_raZor | holyhell; 8 and do not preallocate that way if need be it will increase as needed |
| 01:12 | holyhell | awesome |
| 01:12 | SealedWithAKiss | nickrud, sure. |
| 01:12 | holyhell | man i am too oldschool for this virtual machine thing |
| 01:12 | xlukasx | lol |
| 01:12 | glitsj16 | roney: very welcome |
| 01:12 | xlukasx | just go full install :) |
| 01:12 | DavidCanarias | OOBE and BOBERTDOS - Eureka ... I downloaded the deb file and it automatically installed. Geniuses both. Wonderful. I hope I won't have anymore problems nowtrying to make an mp3 CD from audio music in my computer. Can you both do this with K3b as I couldn't |
| 01:12 | holyhell | i just read in the economist how genious vmware fusion is, that makes things so much easier, hehe |
| 01:12 | kushalsejwal | bastid_raZor: you didnt got me, I am having a dual boot |
| 01:12 | spiel_mit_feuer | is there a gnome IRC client more like konversation? |
| 01:12 | SealedWithAKiss | nickrud, apt.conf is blank. |
| 01:12 | nickrud | SealedWithAKiss, what's the problem? gksu gedit /etc/apt/sources.list.d/70debconf , change the number, then sudo apt-get update && sudo synaptic |
| 01:12 | Yud_Zroc | would a computer running 512mb of ram run crappier if i had 64 bit ubuntu installed instead of 32 bit |
| 01:12 | xlukasx | gaim is nice |
| 01:12 | xlukasx | or pidgin |
| 01:12 | tropical_dude | Hi, I need some advice, Im going moving my uncle local network from windows to ubuntu, now Im wondering about what the normal/recommended network protocol so they can share files betewn computer, protocol name would be enough thank you |
| 01:13 | KyleB171 | Hi |
| 01:13 | bastid_raZor | kushalsejwal; i understand but hiding files on a windows partition from ubuntu is out of league. i don't know the consequences . |
| 01:13 | Yud_Zroc | Note: Pigion ownes gaim now |
| 01:13 | nickrud | SealedWithAKiss, sorry I didn't give that line earlier, typing and packing up the desk leads to brain farts |
| 01:13 | spiel_mit_feuer | bah.. screw that.. i can admit KDE does have some software better than gnomes |
| 01:13 | kushalsejwal | bastid_raZor: okay then I should better keep them untouched |
| 01:13 | Comedy | does anyone else get an error when trying MP4Box |
| 01:13 | kushalsejwal | bastid_raZor: thanks anyways :) |
| 01:13 | KyleB171 | Does anybody know if crossover works with x64? |
| 01:13 | kindofabuzz | Kvirc ftw |
| 01:13 | Comedy | error while loading shared libraries: libjs.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory |
| 01:13 | xlukasx | spiel... what do you need? |
| 01:13 | bastid_raZor | Yud_Zroc; it would be pointless to do so.. you'll never get the beneifit of 64bit with that little of ram |
| 01:13 | Comedy | anyone know how i can fix that? |
| 01:14 | KyleB171 | Does anybody know if crossover works with x64????? |
| 01:14 | bastid_raZor | kushalsejwal; i hope that kinda helped ;) |
| 01:14 | kushalsejwal | bastid_raZor: I wish :D |
| 01:14 | KyleB171 | Does anybody know if crossover works with x64????? HELP |
| 01:14 | Yud_Zroc | bastid_raZor: would it run slower like....lag all the time slow |
| 01:14 | bobertdos | !samba | tropical_dude |
| 01:14 | ubottu | tropical_dude: Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT. |
| 01:14 | ailean | could someone help me get my built-in microphone to work on my acer laptop? |
| 01:14 | KyleB171 | Does anybody know if crossover works with x64????? |
| 01:14 | holyhell | bastid_raZor and nickrud vmware fusion tells me: You are running a 64 bit guest opreating system, but the virtual machine is configured to run a 32-bit operating system |
| 01:14 | SealedWithAKiss | nickrud, the file is blank. |
| 01:14 | bastid_raZor | Yud_Zroc; with 32 or 64 you're not going to see much of a difference. the ram is what is holding you back |
| 01:15 | KyleB171 | Ok thanks holyhell |
| 01:15 | SealedWithAKiss | nickrud, 70debconf is empty. |
| 01:15 | KyleB171 | I'll have to install 32bit then :( |
| 01:15 | holyhell | wait KyleB171 i asked a question, didnT give an answer, lol |
| 01:16 | bastid_raZor | holyhell; guest means you told it to install a 64bit OS. redo the set up and tell it 32bit linux/ubuntu |
| 01:16 | Yud_Zroc | bastid_raZor: well i have a 32 bit on my eeepc...it runs without lag...(800mhz) and my friend has a 1.8ghz with same ram...but his runs like crap |
| 01:16 | tropical_dude | thank you guys, but thanks god this time no windows computer, so my question is just linux boxes, thanks |
| 01:16 | bobertdos | !nfs |
| 01:16 | ubottu | nfs is the network file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS. |
| 01:17 | tropical_dude | sweeeeeet! |
| 01:17 | bastid_raZor | Yud_Zroc; maybe the 1.8ghz box is trying to run compiz .. unsure the difference. that little amount of ram is the only hold up. |
| 01:17 | Yud_Zroc | bastid_raZor: it was....it also has a ati m200 so thats the case thenm |
| 01:18 | kushalsejwal | Guys pls help me out, I was experiencing pixelated videos on every player totem VLC etc. So I searched ubuntu forums and added few lines to xorg.conf |
| 01:19 | fwaokda | how can i find out my broadcom chipset verison |
| 01:19 | kushalsejwal | now videos are very flawless but the moment I enable compiz, the videos starts fickering |
| 01:19 | holyhell | bastid_raZor !request query. i told it normal ubuntu, i specifically didnT put 64, i just pressed okay and its doing its thing anyway |
| 01:19 | kushalsejwal | guys pls help I dont want to loose compiz |
| 01:19 | bastid_raZor | Yud_Zroc; i tend to be above the norm on how much my computer actually works.. i hover at about 400MB of ram usage at idle speed. i can't imagine having only 512M |
| 01:20 | bastid_raZor | holyhell; meaning it is installing? |
| 01:20 | Sephr | Does Avant Window Navigator work under VirtualBox? |
| 01:20 | kushalsejwal | I was experiencing pixelated videos on every player totem VLC etc. So I searched ubuntu forums and added few lines to xorg.conf. now videos are very flawless but the moment I enable compiz, the videos starts fickering |
| 01:20 | holyhell | yes |
| 01:20 | holyhell | but actually it might be crashing |
| 01:20 | bastid_raZor | Sephr; probably not unless you can get compiz to work in the virtual macine |
| 01:20 | holyhell | there were two options ubuntu and ubuntu 64 |
| 01:20 | holyhell | i chose ubuntu i am certain of it |
| 01:21 | Sephr | I can't seem to get it to work trying to look os x'ish http://sephr.eligrey.com/i/ubuntu_osx.png |
| 01:21 | holyhell | i think it wants me to use the 64 bit operating system since i am running it in a 64 bit operating system or something |
| 01:22 | bastid_raZor | Sephr; AWN requires compiz.. i don't think virtualbox can push 3d |
| 01:22 | Sephr | well it lets you pick how much memory and video memory you can give the vm |
| 01:22 | bastid_raZor | Sephr; that has nothing to do with hardware acceleration ;) |
| 01:23 | holyhell | bastid_raZor how do i delete all virtual machines on vmware again? |
| 01:23 | Sephr | I gave ubuntu 1.5GB of my spare RAM |
| 01:23 | Sephr | and 200MB video memory |
| 01:23 | kushalsejwal | I was experiencing pixelated videos on every player totem VLC etc. So I searched ubuntu forums and added few lines to xorg.conf. now videos are very playing flawless but the moment I enable compiz, the videos starts fickering. |
| 01:23 | Sephr | that should be enough to use awn |
| 01:23 | smithdwi | anyone familar with the Sansa e250 MP3 player? |
| 01:24 | kushalsejwal | #compiz |
| 01:24 | bastid_raZor | holyhell; i don't know, i've never erased one.. just make another? you could go to the vmware folder and delete them there |
| 01:24 | smithdwi | cannot get it to automount in 8.04 |
| 01:24 | magilum | Has anyone gotten GPG working with Evolution? |
| 01:24 | bastid_raZor | Sephr; you're missing the point. |
| 01:24 | Chaotic_Descent | Is there a music player that will load files from file folders instead of only allowing me to pick tracks by their ID tags? I'm using Rhythmbox, and despite importing files or folders, I can't find the tracks I've imported. |
| 01:24 | NCommander | magilum, I have, it worked out of the box for me |
| 01:25 | magilum | NCommander: Can you encrypt message? I get an error saying that I don't have a public key for the recipient, even though it works in thunderbird. |
| 01:25 | NCommander | magilum, I haven't tried, so I dunno |
| 01:25 | magilum | NCommander: Thanks anyways |
| 01:26 | Sephr | I just don't get how I _need_ hardware accelleration |
| 01:26 | Sephr | the dock doesn't even come up for some reason, all I really want is the basic dock |
| 01:27 | Chaotic_Descent | huh... must be because these old MP3s have no ID3 info in them. -_-; |
| 01:27 | bastid_raZor | Sephr; you can ask in #compiz-fusion or #vmware (if you're using vmware) for a better explanation |
| 01:27 | Chaotic_Descent | god, what is this crazy system where it won't let me play music I have? |
| 01:28 | holyhell | okay bastid_raZor thx, i am trying 64 then |
| 01:28 | Chaotic_Descent | hrm. I can open these old MP3s individually in Rhythmbox, but I can't queue them all up. -_-; |
| 01:28 | holyhell | it likes this better |
| 01:31 | orangepeelbeef | i'm having a problem compiling a kernel with git clone the version in the repository is newer than what's in the apt tree, so i can't build linux-modules |

| 01:33 | madz | hi pips! |
| 01:33 | hhp2k | Hey everyone, what command is used to access the compiz settings manager in Ubuntu 8.04? |
| 01:33 | eyyYo | tech0007, yes, but the checkinstall does this to EVERY folder it tries to create. Since its more then two folders, this will take time to do manually. |
| 01:34 | speps | hey guys where are the $classpath and $java_home env for java in Ubuntu? |
| 01:34 | gonzojive | i am having no luck getting fglrx or any 3d support whatsoever to work on Hardy with my ATI 9500 Pro |

| 01:36 | blario6 | can someone help me with envy? |
| 01:37 | glitsj16 | hhp2k: depending on which compiz settings manager you have installed it's either "ccsm" or "simple-ccsm" |
| 01:37 | bastid_raZor | !envy | blario6 |
| 01:37 | ubottu | blario6: envyng is an updated version of the *UNSUPPORTED* envy package. It is now part of the ubuntu universe repository (envyng-gtk OR envyng-qt) and has community support. As an early version, its results may vary but this should be used over the unsupported envy package. |
| 01:38 | hhp2k | glitsj16: Thanks =D Figured it out |
| 01:38 | glitsj16 | :) np |
| 01:38 | SebNaitsabes | blario6: yep maybe what's the issue? |

| 01:59 | ManicDeity | jerry, an alias you can just put right into your terminal. |
| 01:59 | kindofabuzz | i like exaile |
| 01:59 | Abed | cptr13, rythmbox i use it 10% of my total usage |

| 01:59 | Abed | cptr13, yeah it's KDE |
| 01:59 | hhp2k | For window docks, is Avant Window Navigator still the best option to go for, or is there something else someone can recommend? |

| 02:00 | cptr13 | does it require a lot of kde dependancies to use? or no? |
| 02:00 | ManicDeity | jerry: the alias for that pretty much means that when you type xmaple you run that string. |
| 02:00 | FAJALOU | cptr13: some but not many, if you want to burn to a disk from amarok, it uses more |
| 02:00 | Abed | i dunno actually but if u don't have KDE forget about it |
| 02:00 | FAJALOU | Abed: i have GNOME and it works great, better than any others i know |

| 02:06 | bobertdos | ManicDeity: I'd recommend totem-xine (assuming you have the xine libraries, libdvdcss2 and all that jazz installed). Otherwise, you might try changing the rendering options in VLC to see if you can mix and match for better performance. |
| 02:06 | FAJALOU | tech007: i dunno if it has to do with sudo, or my host though. |

| 02:09 | jerrymay | AWT_TOOLKIT=MToolkit |
| 02:09 | jerrymay | export AWT_TOOLKIT |
| 02:09 | unop | FAJALOU, /etc/hosts must have an entry for your HOSTNAME for sudo to be able to to resolve your hostname's IP address |
| 02:09 | piranah | ManicDeity: Sooo new to linux. Last time I ran a linux distro I had to install via floppy like 10 years ago lol |

| 02:10 | tech0007 | jerrymay: 'gedit ~/.gnomerc' |
| 02:10 | FAJALOU | unop: i went into the /etc/hosts and added line 127.0.1.1 UP2 and now it works. |
| 02:10 | FAJALOU | that's what it says to do on the forums |

| 02:13 | Reaper | tech0007: http://jural.deviantart.com/art/My-new-Gnome-desktop-2810171 <--- Go here, and check out, what I mean is the object dock downwards. |
| 02:13 | ManicDeity | you can just reboot x windows. ctrl+alt+backspace. |
| 02:13 | wbmj | CorpseFeeder: libvdcss is a library not a daemon... no need to reboot |

| 02:35 | unclemike | how do i change the icon for the gnome menu |
| 02:35 | tech0007 | hhp2k: follow this guide https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CairoDock |
| 02:35 | Joki | Histo: Maybe I should reinstall my network adapter? |
| 02:35 | tech0007 | unclemike: just one icon or the whole icon theme set? |
| 02:35 | tj83 | Joki, sometimes sites like www.speedtestnet.net cache's the file. so when you refresh then it basically gives your the speed read from the hdd.. not the site. so its giving you an inaccurate display. |
| 02:35 | histo | Joki: nah something else is going on. |
| 02:36 | olivia | tovella, i just saw i also have the openjdk 6 installed, is it relevant? |
| 02:36 | Joki | tj83, I download from newsgroups. Giganews.com |
| 02:36 | unclemike | tech0007, just the icon for the gnome menu on the panel |
| 02:36 | histo | Joki: you receive higher speeds in windows over ubuntu on the same hardware? |
| 02:36 | tovella | olivia: it could be. |
| 02:36 | Joki | my download is 2400kbs |
| 02:36 | Joki | yes, Histo. |
| 02:36 | Joki | On windows speed is a little higher than on Ubuntu |
| 02:36 | hhp2k | tech0007: Thanks! |
| 02:36 | Joki | My download was 2400 now its 500 |
| 02:37 | tech0007 | unclemike: is it the small ubuntu icon near Applications? |
| 02:37 | afallenhope | Can i add a debian item to my "source.list"? |
| 02:37 | Abed | jmarsden how can i generate the public key? |
| 02:37 | san_ | joki: :O |
| 02:37 | eraldo | is there a clean way of changing from a standard ubuntu to using fluxbox ? |
| 02:37 | unclemike | tech0007, yes |
| 02:37 | wols_ | arooni: install fluxbuntu-desktop |
| 02:37 | histo | Joki: Maybe a problem with the app you are using. |
| 02:37 | jmarsden | Abed: Keep reading, see the section "Tip: Generating Public Keys" :-) |
| 02:37 | CShadowRun | uhh, my panels stopped working. |
| 02:37 | Joki | its a big difference. from 2400 KB's to 500 KB's |
| 02:37 | histo | Joki: Or perhaps you have a firewall or something with qos for the packets |
| 02:37 | Idealist2 | hey guys |
| 02:38 | CShadowRun | the panels are still there, they are visually ok, but when i click on them nothing happens :( |
| 02:38 | Abed | jmarsden ok |
| 02:38 | Idealist2 | I had a question, does anyone here use Elisa? |
| 02:38 | Idealist2 | I'm having a problem with it |
| 02:38 | histo | Joki: someone else may be able to help you mbetter than me. |
| 02:38 | Joki | Thanks for trying Histo. |
| 02:39 | Joki | I am going to uninstall my network adapters and reinstall them with fresh drivers |
| 02:39 | Idealist2 | Everything works fine in Elisa, except when I try to get into the settings it just sits there. The little cog icon from within the program, I click it 9000 times and it does nothing |
| 02:39 | tj83 | Joki, i 2nd histo.. but it could be many thing.s |
| 02:39 | Joki | maybe that will clean everything up |
| 02:39 | Idealist2 | I'm trying to figure out whats wrong |
| 02:39 | tj83 | Joki, check how the cables are laying in relation to other cables physically |
| 02:39 | Joki | ok |
| 02:39 | olivia | tovella, should i uninstall one of the two? i think i had one of the two installed while trying to solve other sound problems, one of them was trying to make skype work, what i think may be a related problem. i didn't have any sucess with skype yet either. |
| 02:39 | tech0007 | unclemike: replace the start-here.png icon in /usr/share/icons/gnome/32x32/places/ |
| 02:39 | Joki | tj 83, thanks |
| 02:39 | tj83 | ethernet cables should never run parallel to power wires. |
| 02:39 | Joki | that could be, tj83 |
| 02:39 | glitsj16 | Joki: are you on broadband ? if so, there's some setitngs in /etc/sysctl.conf you could check as well |
| 02:40 | tovella | olivia: no, i would leave them both in place, for now. |
| 02:40 | tech0007 | unclemike: the 32x32 depends on the pixel size of your panel |
| 02:40 | jc6 | hi I forgot root password can i know how to reset it |
| 02:40 | olivia | tovella, ok |
| 02:40 | hhp2k | tech0007: Following the Ubuntu guide for Cairo-Dock, sudo-apt get update fails to download files from the cairo respository.. did you get that problem initially? |
| 02:40 | histo | Joki: there are a lot of things but I would try a different news app in ubuntu and see if you get different speeds. |
| 02:40 | Dein_ | is there a way to prevent the mouse cursor from moving between displays without some key combination or something? it's really annoying when i accidentally lose it |
| 02:40 | histo | Joki: if not then I would start suspecting drivers or something. |
| 02:41 | san_ | <jc6>: you try with sex, love, money or 1234 ?? |
| 02:41 | tovella | olivia: i'm just trying to complete the registration... there site seems to be kinda slow. |

| 02:41 | tech0007 | hhp2k: yup, its intermittent, try the deb from berlios.de |
| 02:41 | bobrock | how do I enable internet connect sharing in hardy |
| 02:41 | unclemike | tech0007, ok thanks |
| 02:41 | Soopa | I want to remove some things |
| 02:41 | histo | Joki: but its not windows so reinstalling drivers isn't going to do anything. You would most likely have to stop using the kernel drivers and use updated versions or someting. |
| 02:41 | bobrock | how do I enable internet connect sharing in hardy |
| 02:41 | hhp2k | tech0007: got it |
| 02:41 | bobrock | anybody |

| 02:42 | olivia | tovella, (if you get) |
| 02:42 | jmarsden | jc6: Do you know your own non-root password? |
| 02:42 | Soopa | so I can't just right click the control |
| 02:42 | tech0007 | bobrock: i used this to share my ubuntu connection w/ an xp box, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=91370 |

| 02:43 | CorbinFox | Dell has updated the XPS M1530, does anyone have an idea if ubuntu will be compatible on the updated components too? the update is too new to be found on the forums (at least with what i have seen) |
| 02:43 | jmarsden | jc6: Then you can do sudo passwd root |
| 02:43 | jmarsden | jc6: and then enter a new root pw |
| 02:43 | wols_ | jmarsden: never tell this to ANYONE in here |
| 02:43 | wols_ | !no root |
| 02:43 | ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about no root |
| 02:43 | wols_ | !noroot |

| 02:44 | ariel | what app? |
| 02:44 | jc6 | jmarsden: Thank you |
| 02:44 | wols_ | jc6: there is no root password you want to reset |
| 02:44 | histo | Joki: most likely its the app you are using |

| 02:44 | Abed | jmarsden explain this plz ssh-keygen -q -f ~/.ssh/id_rsa -t rsa |

| 02:44 | CorbinFox | tech0007: i would, but i want to know if it is compatible *before* i order this $1249 dollar system only to return it or spend loads of time configuring |
| 02:44 | Joki | I did. Different websites |
| 02:44 | Joki | Nothing is changing. |
| 02:44 | jmarsden | wols_: I didn't tell him to set it, I showed him how to reset it, which is exactly what eh asked for.\ |
| 02:44 | histo | Joki: ahh yeah it could be the ipv6 garbage |
| 02:44 | histo | Joki: follow glitsj16 advice |
| 02:45 | wols_ | jmarsden: stop fidgeting. no root in ubuntu |
| 02:45 | glitsj16 | Joki: did you try the changes in /etc/sysctl.conf ? |
| 02:45 | Joki | hold on |
| 02:45 | jmarsden | Abed: It runs ssh-keygen with appropriate params to geenrate a public key.... |
| 02:45 | wols_ | jmarsden: there is nothing to set or change |
| 02:45 | Joki | I am on vista now. I am gonna switch to Ubuntu and come back. Glitsj16. |
| 02:45 | Abed | jmarsden: but can u explain the para? |
| 02:45 | san_ | <Soopa>: were it says apllications, you do right click, look for edit Menus. Thats what you want. |
| 02:46 | jmarsden | wols_: You've seen jc6's machine, so you are 100% sure noone set one on his machine? OK :-) |
| 02:46 | ionstorm66 | is there something like dltree for linux? |
| 02:46 | wols_ | Abed: man ssh-keygen |
| 02:46 | wols_ | jmarsden: if he runs ubuntu: yes |
| 02:46 | wols_ | jmarsden: there is no root password. end of it |
| 02:46 | Abed | wols_ man sucks |
| 02:46 | udit | can anyone tell me how to convert a symlink to the actual file ? |
| 02:46 | wols_ | Abed: being lazy sucks more |
| 02:46 | jmarsden | wols_: No, there are indeed such PCs. I run some of them... |
| 02:46 | CorbinFox | aw, never mind, i missed the fact that i would need to get a verizon subscription...damn.....that is why it was so affordable XD they get you with the verizon cost |
| 02:46 | wols_ | jmarsden: then you don't run ubuntu. and what you do with your own ubuntu is no one's business but what you tell others here is |
| 02:47 | Soopa | san_: I don't want to edit the menus, though... I just want to remove the MS Windows-style window list |
| 02:47 | jerrymay | hello hello when i typed in the terminal: gedit ~/.gnomerc i get a blank page please advice there should be codes that i need to remove to remove a bash error shown when i start terminal |
| 02:47 | Abed | wols_ watch ur words dude this is a community to help not to insult thnx for ur help |
| 02:47 | jmarsden | wols_: Indeed. Are you chanop here? |
| 02:48 | wols_ | jmarsden: no. ask any chanop about the root policy. he will tell you the same: there is no root in ubuntu, you don't help people to set it even if they ask |
| 02:48 | tech0007 | jerrymay: i use gnome, i dont have ~/.gnomerc so you're creating that file |
| 02:48 | wols_ | Abed: feel free to complain if you want to. when I see I spade I call it |
| 02:48 | jmarsden | wols_: Can you point to FAQ or documentation on this please? |

| 02:54 | newuser | hey what are main differences between 2.6.24-19 and 2.6.24-20 ubuntu kernels?? |
| 02:54 | matthias_N | hi installed gnash but in youtube it is not playing but the black screen appears and than disappears immediately and in the place of the "movie ther is just blanc" |
| 02:54 | Joki | gtsj16, Are you able to give me some steps on replacing this |
| 02:54 | san_ | <Soopa>: look at the separator you have before the window list. click there and put remove from panel |
| 02:54 | glitsj16 | Joki: the settings need to be changed in /etc/sysctl.conf, so use something like sudo gedit /etc/sysctl.conf for those first, after you made the changes you run "sudo sysctl -p" in a terminal to make those active, they are in effect from that moment |
| 02:54 | histo | Joki: yeah blacklisting ipv6 may solve your problems |

| 02:59 | eraldo | unop: I am not sure... if there will be things that I miss when replacing gnome... |
| 02:59 | jmarsden | Abed: You need to create that authorized-keys file to include the keys you decide are authorized :-) |
| 02:59 | eraldo | unop: if there are no things in flux.. I would prefer to replace it |
| 02:59 | tj83 | dolphin_noel, what is the problem? |
| 02:59 | dolphin_noel | ***** this |
| 02:59 | dolphin_noel | urgg |
| 02:59 | crdlb | Dein_: why would you want to run compiz on only one screen? |
| 02:59 | dolphin_noel | tj83 leave it no problema i give up |
| 03:00 | unop | eraldo, you ought to keep gnome then as fluxbox isn't really a comprehensive desktop environment |
| 03:00 | tj83 | dolphin_noel, pm? |
| 03:00 | dolphin_noel | or something else |

| 03:00 | unop | eraldo, just install fluxbox and change your default window manager then |

| 03:00 | Dein_ | crdlb: because when it runs on both my monitor and my tv, my monitor has a very slow response for some reason. if i run it only on my monitor, and i leave tv effect-less (i use it for movies anyway) it runs fine |

| 03:01 | jmarsden | Abed: Look in your ~/.ssh/ dir and see what files you have there? |
| 03:01 | Flannel | dolphin_noel: You've been asked to clarify your problem a few times and haven't responeded. Please take your complaints elsewhere |
| 03:01 | Dein_ | crdlb: it would be the best if i could run compiz automatically when my system starts, only on this screen... is there a way? |
| 03:01 | eraldo | unop: could you explain to me why it is not as comprehensive by naming one example please ? |
| 03:02 | Sergeant_Pony | unop: my home dir is full 100 % trying to make space, like moving openoffice to another area with more room. Is it possible? |
| 03:02 | histo | Joki: yeah that got rid of ipv6 |
| 03:02 | jmarsden | Abed: There should be both id_rsa (the secret key) and id_rsa.pub (the public one) |

| 03:20 | izanbardprince | hmmm, I watched a video on Google where this dude from Novell said Canonical has given 6 patches in 5 years to the kernel, I see tons in .25 and .26 |
| 03:21 | Pelo | this is just plain weird, I thought it was because of my bad mobo, but apparently it might be an issue with hardy , printers connected to lpt1 only print garbage, same printer connected to my lpt2 ( pci parralelle port card) work fine |
| 03:21 | izanbardprince | I wonder what he was smoking |
| 03:21 | unop | drut, use the !pastebin and post the contents of this command there. mount && sudo fdisk -l |

| 03:22 | dr_Willis | well gnome can show 'icons' for them. but technically they are mounted into /media/SOMENAME i belive. |
| 03:23 | gettingStabbed | yup |
| 03:23 | izanbardprince | I wish Intrepid wasn't so horribly broken at the moment |
| 03:23 | jmarsden | mrtech: Good. Looks like the package doesn't install into the Gnome menus tree quite right or something, you coudl file a but about that if you want. |
| 03:23 | izanbardprince | I'd be using it for the kernel alone |

| 03:37 | raichlea | Matthew, it probably doesn't recognize the drive cause it's formatted for ubuntu |
| * prince_jammys guesses permissions |
| 03:37 | raichlea | Matthew, you probably need to use gparted off the livecd and create an NTFS partition or a blank one |
| 03:37 | izanbardprince | drut: Run runescape as an unsigned applet |
| 03:38 | izanbardprince | IcedTea hates the signed applet |

| 03:38 | drut | I did |
| 03:38 | drut | unop: i did |
| 03:38 | Pelo | sorry for the part |
| 03:38 | raichlea | Matthew, just be careful because I *think* that the XP bootloader will take over. Usually you have to install Windows first |
| 03:38 | raichlea | Matthew, what did you format it as? |
| 03:38 | Flannel | !grub | Matthew |
| 03:38 | ubottu | Matthew: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto |
| 03:38 | izanbardprince | raichlea: Just reinstall GRUB |
| 03:38 | izanbardprince | :P |
| 03:38 | Flannel | Matthew: you'll need to use the first link there to reinstall GRUB after windows eats it. |
| 03:38 | izanbardprince | it's not all that hard |
| 03:39 | izanbardprince | SuperGRUB disk works well |
| 03:39 | raichlea | izanbardprince, it's Matthew that needs the help. I was just pointing out what would happen |
| 03:39 | Matthew | raichlea, and flannel, I have a list of instructions on how to fix the boot loader. |
| 03:39 | piranah | anyone here have step by step directions for using a nvidia 9600 GT card with current distro if Ubuntu ? |

| 03:41 | unop | drut, seems like you have to create a directory named /rscache (which is poor design), anyway try this command. sudo mkdir /rscache; sudo chown $USER.$USER /rscache |
| 03:41 | bobertdos | piranah: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia |
| 03:41 | Matthew | raichlea...i think it's currently "unknown" or sda1, I think it's unknown (or unused) though |
| 03:41 | drut | unop, thanks, ill tell you what happens |
| 03:41 | izanbardprince | Matthew: What kind of hard drive? EIDE, SATA? Does it use RAID? |
| 03:41 | raichlea | try formatting it to FAT32 or NTFS and see if that helps. |
| 03:42 | izanbardprince | RAID controllers can be very troublesome |
| 03:42 | Matthew | izanbardprince...I think it's sata, how can i find out for sure |
| 03:42 | izanbardprince | setting it to not use RAID usually fixes that |
| 03:42 | raichlea | Matthew, XP setup will not see SATA natively |
| 03:42 | unop | drut, actually, have a read here. https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox-3.0/+question/39307 |
| 03:42 | izanbardprince | XP will see SATA |
| 03:42 | izanbardprince | but it has no RAID drivers |
| 03:42 | piranah | only if Sp1 is loaded |
| 03:42 | raichlea | izanbardprince, not usually |
| 03:42 | Matthew | raichlea, OK thank you i will keep that in mind...how can I tell what kind of harddrive I have. |
| 03:42 | piranah | er sp2 |
| 03:42 | izanbardprince | so disable RAID, install XP |

| 03:43 | neon | or you can slipstream the driver using nlite which is easier |
| 03:43 | raichlea | izanbardprince, Matthew, generally to install XP on a SATA drive you need to load the drivers via floppy drive or slipstream using nlite. |
| 03:43 | piranah | nvidia 9600 GT + current distro of Ubuntu any tips guides or good links ? |
| 03:44 | wols_ | that's all nice but the wrong channel |

| 03:44 | wols_ | shane: why? |
| 03:44 | bobertdos | hhp2k: I'm not sure the client would actually be your problem. Nonetheless, I'll recommend Mozilla-Thunderbird. It's available in the repos. |
| 03:44 | izanbardprince | Nlite is awesome |
| 03:44 | Matthew | if I just want to fresh install xp, then resize and fresh install ubuntu. what would you suggest? wipe the whole drive? |
| 03:44 | wols_ | piranah: just install the nvidia drivers |
| 03:44 | izanbardprince | slipstream everything and never worry about it again |

| 03:51 | Evilsboytoy | wols_ to do what ? |
| 03:51 | Chaotic_Descent | why does VLC not play audio in videos that MPlayer can play just fine? If I could figure out how to load DVDs with MPlayer, I wouldn't mind. |
| 03:51 | Matthew | raichlea, thank you...I'd like to avoid the ipod though. |
| 03:52 | raichlea | Matthew, well I would certainly recommend against the zune... the rest are just simply over glorified usb sticks and should work just fine |
| 03:52 | hhp2k | Hey everyone, I just installed Ubuntu on my desktop and I have a SoundBlaster 5.1 Surround sound card, with 5.1 surround hooked up to it. When the speakers are on, they make a shitload of white noise, when they should be silent. Anyone know why this is happening? |
| 03:52 | glitsj16 | Chaotic_Descent: did you try experimenting with the different audio output settings in VLC yet to dtermine if you can get audio going ? |
| 03:53 | Matthew | raichlea, ha okay thank you. |
| 03:53 | michael__ | hi, i have a question on my machine, i have a maxtor 80G pata harddisk, but why it is used as sda(scsi device) on my computer. |
| 03:53 | bobertdos | raichlea: Is it possible you just didn't have the Sun plugin properly linked before? I've helped a number of people with this. Maybe I could help you with that. |
| 03:53 | wols_ | michael__: all hdds are nod sda and using the scsi layer |
| 03:53 | raichlea | bobertdos, it's possible... what I can use to test? |
| 03:53 | Evilsboytoy | srsly, what do i do to get my ubuntu hardy to boot now that todays updates crashed it ?? |
| 03:53 | wols_ | raichlea: about:plugins |
| 03:53 | Chaotic_Descent | glitsj16: I'm not familiar with VLC. where are these audio output settings? I don't see any under audio's advanced settings... steam output? no... |
| 03:54 | michael__ | but times ago, i use it as hda, this is the new driver? |
| 03:54 | raichlea | well I see GCJ Web Browser Plugin (using IcedTea) there now. what info do you need? |
| 03:54 | wols_ | michael__: yes it's a new driver |
| 03:54 | bobertdos | michael__: sda doesn't mean SATA, it means "storage device A" |
| 03:54 | wols_ | raichlea: wrong plugin. |
| 03:54 | Chaotic_Descent | glitsj16: oh. the arrow expands subsections. I remember seeing that before. |
| 03:54 | Evilsboytoy | don't use it it will crash yo system |
| 03:54 | Evilsboytoy | fucking ubuntu |
| 03:54 | michael_m | cpu frequency problem, can someone help? |
| 03:54 | glitsj16 | Chaotic_Descent: yes, try changing the output modules in there |
| 03:54 | raichlea | wols_, prior to this I had the standard java one there and it didn't work |
| 03:55 | michael__ | and an other question, i test it in windows, result at 17mb/s, but i use hdparm in linux, it show me 57ms/s |
| 03:55 | bobertdos | !ohmy > Evilsboytoy |
| 03:55 | ubottu | Evilsboytoy, please see my private message |
| 03:55 | raichlea | wols, bobertdos, which would you recommend? |
| 03:55 | Justinlol | how do u create ne room? |
| 03:55 | michael__ | that is the same as my matox 250G sata harddisk. |
| 03:55 | bobertdos | raichlea: Sun, as long as it's properly linked :) |
| 03:55 | drut | unop, thanks for the link, I read it and fixed the problem |
| 03:56 | meatrun | Hello i don't mean to bother, but could someone suggest a channel that a very new user could ask a question as to why his sound wouldn't work? |
| 03:56 | Chaotic_Descent | arg. VLC freezes every time I try to stop it playing... so every time I test it it takes half a minute for it to respond. |
| 03:56 | raichlea | bobertdos, ok, I will remove iced tea now and teset |
| 03:56 | Vock | Hey, i'm having some problems with installing Ubuntu, I'm on the Live CD right now, was wondering if someone could pm me n help me out a bit? |
| 03:56 | Justinlol | how do u make a new room? |
| 03:56 | bobertdos | raichlea: Are you using the built-in Firefox 3 or Mozilla's version? |
| 03:56 | riegersn | anyone using the new banshee 1.0 ? |
| 03:56 | dr_Willis | Justinlol, you mean /join #myOwnpersonalroom |
| 03:56 | Chaotic_Descent | any way to guess which audio output setting is likely to work? |
| 03:56 | Justinlol | yes ty |
| 03:56 | michael_m | meatrun: what distro are u using and what is ur sound card? |
| 03:57 | raichlea | I'm not sure... I *think* it was installed with Ubuntu |
| 03:57 | michael__ | wols: do you know why i get the same result of my maxtor 80G pata harddsik and my maxtor 250 sata harddisk. |
| 03:57 | Justinlol | dr_Willis yes thank you |
| 03:57 | riegersn | banshee only allowing me to add 1 podcast, anyone heard of this issue? |
| 03:57 | raichlea | bobertdos, I did a clean install |
| 03:57 | glitsj16 | Chaotic_Descent: what is it set to right now (that's not working) ? |
| 03:57 | raichlea | Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9) Gecko/2008061015 Firefox/3.0 |
| 03:57 | Justinlol | /join #myOwnpersonalroom |
| 03:57 | Justinlol | right |
| 03:57 | Chaotic_Descent | glitsj16: default. |
| 03:57 | michael__ | wols: they are both 57mb/s |
| 03:57 | Bosco | i have a problem i have an atheros wireless card after install it says that it is using the atheros driver but it wont load i can only see (ETHO and LO) how do i get it working |
| 03:57 | dr_Willis | Justinlol, you may want to read up on irc basics. :) technically they care called Channels. and they get auto created at join, if non-existant. Unless the server has the channels registered. then Its a littel differently |
| 03:58 | glitsj16 | Caotic_Descent: try ALSA and refresh the list of devices |
| 03:58 | Vock | I have just used Partion editor to make all the partitions I want before installing Ubuntu, but when I try to install it from the LiveCD and go manual, i'm wondering how to pick the one I want to be the root drive |
| 03:58 | michael__ | wols: and i test it in windows, the 80G disk just have a 17mb/s speed. |
| 03:58 | meatrun | I'm not sure of what distro mean :-$ but here is the info about the card i have 03:04.0 Multimedia audio controller: Creative Labs SB X-Fi |
| 03:58 | meatrun | Subsystem: Creative Labs X-Fi XtremeMusic |
| 03:58 | meatrun | Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 11 |
| 03:58 | meatrun | I/O ports at bce0 [size=32] |
| 03:58 | meatrun | Memory at dac00000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=2M] |
| 03:58 | FloodBot2 | meatrun: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. |
| 03:58 | bobertdos | raichlea: oh okay..........So you installed sun-java6-plugin, initially? |
| 03:58 | meatrun | Memory at d4000000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=64M] |
| 03:58 | meatrun | Capabilities: <access denied> |
| 03:58 | michael__ | wols: the 250G sata disk have 68mb/s |
| 03:58 | raichlea | bobertdos, yes, initially and then removed it. I just reinstalled it now |
| 03:59 | meatrun | sorry |
| 03:59 | Chaotic_Descent | It's strange. VLC was working fine before. maybe it's because I reinstalled the restricted driver package or whatever it was that allowed me to play DVDs and MP3s and such. |
| 03:59 | glitsj16 | Chaotic_Descent: typo in your nick sorry, try ALSA and refresh the list of devices to see if you can spot your sound card |
| 03:59 | michael__ | anyone here know what is this command (hdparm -tT) really meant? |
| 03:59 | Chaotic_Descent | glitsj16: yeah. tried ALSA with both the options in the refreshed list that it gave me. no luck. |
| 03:59 | dr_Willis | Justinlol, seriously man. read up on the irc client fetures, dont just start trying them out on people. :) some people find the dcc chat stuff rude. :P |
| 03:59 | crashsystems | @michael that command tests the performance for the HD. see the man entry for more. |
| 03:59 | bobertdos | raichlea: So, if you type about:plugins into Firefox, is Java listed? |
| 04:00 | raichlea | bobertdos, now I have Java(TM) Plug-in 1.6.0_06-b02 |
| 04:00 | raichlea | File name: libjavaplugin_oji.so |
| 04:00 | raichlea | Java(TM) Plug-in 1.6.0_06 installed and showing in about:plugins. It was there before and didn't work, but let me test again |
| 04:00 | Justinlol | oh |
| 04:00 | raichlea | sorry |
| 04:00 | Justinlol | ok |
| 04:00 | michael__ | crashsystems: i have a question about that. seemly, it cant give me a true result. |
| 04:00 | glitsj16 | Chaotic_Descent: what exactly did you install sound related ? any ideas ? |
| 04:00 | crashsystems | @michael__ what do you mean? |
| 04:01 | madfrancis | I need some serious assistance. I am having a lot of conflictions with my video card. I had everything running fine until I started trying to get dual displays to work in ubuntu. Now it thinks it's running dual so I can only see half of the screen and yet my 2nd display doesn't isn't showing shit. |
| 04:01 | smit | what program can i download to burn an iso image to a dvd |
| 04:01 | Bosco | i have a problem i have an atheros wireless card after install it says that it is using the atheros driver but it wont load i can only see (ETHO and LO) how do i get it working |
| 04:01 | raichlea | bobertdos, trying to run it now and it's just greying out and freezing up like it used to.. |
| 04:01 | dr_Willis | smit, you mean under linux/ubuntu? there should be some allready installed.. |
| 04:01 | Chaotic_Descent | glitsj16: uh... some music players. and reinstalled some restricted package... arg. you want the name? |
| 04:01 | michael__ | crashsystems: as i said. i have two disk. one maxtor 80G pata, i buy it at 2004, other 250 sata, i buy it 2007. |
| 04:01 | smit | dr_willis: how do i access |
| 04:02 | jtaji | smit: it's built in to gnome, just right click the .iso and burn to disk... |
| 04:02 | michael_m | meatrun: u might want to check out the beta driver http://opensource.creative.com/soundcard.html |
| 04:02 | michael__ | crashsystems: i use the command to test both. but it showed me almost same result. |
| 04:02 | bobertdos | raichlea: If you go into about:config and set plugin.expose_fullpath to true, what path is java listed as in about:plugins? |
| 04:02 | crashsystems | @michael__ that is strange |
| 04:02 | Chaotic_Descent | glitsj16: ubuntu-restricted-extras I think it the one I reinstalled. but VLC was working when it was installed. I'm pretty sure it's just since I REinstalled it (after I had some other problem) |
| 04:02 | glitsj16 | Chaotic_Descent: i use pulseaudio and after installing vlc-plugin-pulse i get nice audio with the default settings in VLC .. are you runningpulseaudio ? |
| 04:03 | michael__ | crashsystems: yes, it showed me both 57mb/s |
| 04:03 | meatrun | thank you Michael_m i will try it out |
| 04:03 | crashsystems | @michael__ does that vary any from one test to another? |
| 04:03 | raichlea | bobertdos, File name: /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-1.6.0.06/jre/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so |
| 04:04 | bobertdos | raichlea: alright, now in the terminal, what is the output of: sudo update-java-alternatives -l? |
| 04:04 | glitsj16 | Chaotic_Descent: thanks, that might have changed your default sound server settings, not to familiar with that package to be sure though sorry |
| 04:04 | michael_m | cpu frequency problem can someone help? |
| 04:04 | raichlea | java-6-openjdk 1061 /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk |
| 04:04 | raichlea | java-6-sun 63 /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun |
| 04:04 | michael__ | crashsystems: yes, a little. the 250 sata one. result in 56mb/s. the 80 pata old one, result in 57mb/s. a little quick?? |
| 04:05 | theRealBall | howdy |
| 04:05 | smit | why cant i view my external hdd? |
| 04:05 | crashsystems | @michael__ I'd think so. However, if the old one is a little faster than expected, I'd certainly not complain. |
| 04:05 | michael__ | crashsystems: but if i test both in windows. the 250 one. result in 58mb/s. the 80 pata, result in 17mb/s |
| 04:05 | crashsystems | @michael__ I'm stuck with IDE on my desktop box :( |
| 04:06 | Guest3043 | Does Ubuntu have network traffic monitor(packet sniffer) installed by default |
| 04:06 | ManualOverDozer | sure does |
| 04:06 | crashsystems | @michael__ what file system are you using in linux? |
| 04:06 | smit | why cant i view my external hdd? |
| 04:06 | michael__ | crashsystems: ext3 |
| 04:06 | ManualOverDozer | look in repositpry for things like that |
| 04:06 | Guest3043 | What is the name of this monitor? |
| 04:06 | otg | hello |
| 04:06 | drut | hi, otg |
| 04:07 | smit | WHY CANT I VIEW MY EXTERNAL HDD |
| 04:07 | bobertdos | raichlea: try this: sudo update-java-alternatives -s /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun |
| 04:07 | crashsystems | @michael__ I assume that in windows you have ntfs? |
| 04:07 | rhrh | hello |
| 04:07 | ManualOverDozer | maybe you need to mount the drive to see it |
| 04:07 | otg | hrrlo |
| 04:07 | michael__ | crashsystems: yes |

| 04:07 | ManualOverDozer | ntfs can be read by both windows and linux |
| 04:07 | Chaotic_Descent | glitsj16: "running" pulseaudio? I don't know. I didn't install anything with that name. the thing is, I reinstalled VLC, and I thought that would fix it. I mean, if reinstalling the ubuntu-restricted-extras broke it, why would reinstalling it fix it now? :S I can't figure out how it got broken. |
| 04:07 | smit | why cant i view my external hard drive |
| 04:08 | smit | why cant i view my external hard drive |

| 04:08 | dr_Willis | smit, you might want to CLARIFY/explain better.. instead of just repeating. |
| 04:08 | ManualOverDozer | you may need to mount it as a drive to see the external, just a shot in the dark |
| 04:08 | smit | um |
| 04:08 | otg | xxx |
| 04:08 | smit | why cant i view my external hard drive |
| 04:08 | michael__ | crashsystems: but the 250 disk, both in window and in linux, the test result same. |
| 04:08 | raichlea | bobertdos, now using: File name: /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-1.6.0.06/jre/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so |

| 04:08 | dd | 怡是哪位 |
| 04:08 | crashsystems | @michael__ perhaps there is something about that old drive that causes a significant discrepancy in performance between ntfs and ext3(?) Too much into hardware specifics for me to guess. |

| 04:11 | shane_ | raichlea: Is there a way to mount a drive as another UID so when I write to it its written with aanother users UID |
| 04:11 | twbbs | hi hi |
| 04:11 | Chaotic_Descent | curses. then I'm out of theories. |
| 04:11 | crashsystems | @michael__ perhaps there is an obscure bug in it that causes this problem with that particular drive. Have you checked launchpad for open bugs? |
| 04:11 | raichlea | shane_, no idea |
| 04:11 | ManualOverDozer | add/remove with linux is easy, just uncheck it. to reinstall check it |
| 04:11 | drut | how do you run .exe's on linux? |
| 04:12 | Mechdave | drut, you use wine |
| 04:12 | michael__ | crashsystems: one month ago i use the hdparm command to chang some parmeter on my 250 hardisk. and finally i broken it. |
| 04:12 | dr_Willis | shane_, not that i have ever seen.. thisis a ext2/3 filesystem right? |
| 04:12 | mjponce | use wine |
| 04:12 | unewbie | has anyone copy repository to HDD? |
| 04:12 | ManualOverDozer | you dont run EXE's |
| 04:12 | Guest3043 | Is there a network traffic monitor (packet sniffer) installed by default? |
| 04:12 | drut | mechdave, is that a joke or a program? |
| 04:12 | shane_ | HFS |
| 04:12 | raichlea | bobertdos, yahoo works now, but not pogo...damn. |
| 04:12 | crashsystems | @michael__ lol. It has been quite a while since I've used hdparm |
| 04:12 | Bios_Element_ | drut, It is a real program. |
| 04:12 | michael__ | crashsystems: no i am not have a check, i am from china, and i cant suffer that website. |
| 04:12 | shane_ | HFS+ with jounraling disabled |
| 04:12 | dr_Willis | shane_, no idea on hfs at all. :) |
| 04:12 | Mechdave | drut, it is a program apt-get install wine |
| 04:12 | ManualOverDozer | guest packet sniffer ? hmmm, its in there, i cant happen to tell you exactly where atm |
| 04:12 | Bios_Element_ | drut, You can read about it on it's site located http://www.winehq.org/ |
| 04:13 | drut | Thanks |
| 04:13 | michael_m | processor scaling problem, can someone help??? |
| 04:13 | raichlea | bobertdos, do you know how to get java working with opera? I'll test it there |
| 04:13 | ManualOverDozer | i dont like apt-get, pain, use repository |
| 04:13 | shane_ | on my mac my user has UID of 501 i want to make ubuntu write files as UID 501 to trick the system |
| 04:13 | Chaotic_Descent | why does VLC keep freezing when I stop playback? There's gotta be something wrong going on. It's even freezing when I save settings while video is paused. |
| 04:13 | Guest3043 | drut, sudo apt- get install wine |
| 04:13 | crashsystems | @michael__ I really wish there was decent Chinese food near where I live. |

| 04:13 | Bosco | i have a problem i have an atheros wireless card after install it says that it is using the atheros driver but it wont load i can only see (ETHO and LO) how do i get it working |
| 04:13 | Mechdave | Guest3043, wireshark is what you want |
| 04:13 | smit | I added the driver, BUT IT STILL DOESNT WORK |
| 04:14 | michael_m | Bosco: does it happen to be a 5007eg? |
| 04:14 | ManualOverDozer | make sure the checkbox is checked to enable to atheros card |
| 04:14 | glitsj16 | Chaotic_Descent: if you start vlc from terminal, do you get any errors or anything usefull to try and debug the situation ? |
| 04:14 | michael__ | crashsystems: so now i have to buy another one. and i use my old 80g disk. and when i get the result in 57mb/s of it. why i buy another one? serious problem. |
| 04:14 | smit | my external drive, which is plugged in via usb, does not show up at all in ubuntu, still |
| 04:14 | ManualOverDozer | in network you will see the little checkbox, make sure it is checked and you set you ssid and other info |
| 04:14 | Chaotic_Descent | glitsj16: how do I start VLC from terminal? I know the terminal. |
| 04:14 | michael__ | crashsystems: so where are you from? |
| 04:14 | bobertdos | raichlea: Yeah, you just have to create a symbolic link in the appropriate plugins directory. I don't know where that is in Opera, but if you can find it, that's what you would do. Maybe Pango would work with a newer version of the JRE, downloaded directly from Sun........ |
| 04:14 | dr_Willis | Chaotic_Descent, thje command is 'vlc' :) |
| 04:14 | glitsj16 | Chaotic_Descent: just run "vlc" |
| 04:14 | michael__ | crashsystems: china town? |
| 04:14 | ManualOverDozer | double-click on the card, it should enable it that way too |
| 04:15 | smit | my external drive, which is plugged in via usb, does not show up at all in ubuntu, still |
| 04:15 | Chaotic_Descent | VLC: command not found. |
| 04:15 | crashsystems | @michael__ I am from america. |
| 04:15 | dr_Willis | Chaotic_Descent, thje command is 'vlc' lower case |

| 04:15 | unewbie | anyone copied dvd repo to HDD? |
| 04:15 | Chaotic_Descent | glitsj16: no errors. just shows the version number. |
| 04:15 | ManualOverDozer | i copied whole repository to my HDD |
| 04:15 | michael_m | can someone help me with a processor problem, its driving me insane |
| 04:15 | Hobbsee | crashsystems, michael__: how about you take that discussion to #ubuntu-offtopic, as it's not related to ubuntu support. |
| 04:15 | Chaotic_Descent | ooops. thanks dr_Willis. -_-; |

| 04:16 | ManualOverDozer | resetting xorg back to default may be somewhat tricky, tries to change display mode to smaller mode |

| 04:16 | Guest3043 | Thanks, I just wanted to make sure I didn't put two on my system due to ignorance |
| 04:17 | pabix | smit, can you pastebin “sudo lsusb“ ? |
| 04:17 | smit | my external drive, which is plugged in via usb, does not show up at all in ubuntu, still |
| 04:17 | pabix | smit, no need to repeat twice or thrice |
| 04:17 | ManualOverDozer | does your USB port show ? |
| 04:17 | dr_Willis | smit, you could always try mounting it manually - assuming its ntfs filesystem with a command like ---> sudo ntfs-3g /dev/sda1 /media/Windows_MAKE_this_directoryfirst -o force |
| 04:17 | dr_Willis | |
| 04:17 | Mechdave | Guest3043, apt-get would not let you do that :) |
| 04:17 | michael__ | crashsystems: thank you for your help, i will check buglist of hdparm, and it's lunch time now, goodbye, thank you very much. |
| 04:17 | ManualOverDozer | i mount manual, with mount manager |
| 04:17 | glitsj16 | Chaotic_Descent: that looks like you're VLC settings point to use OSS if i'm not mistaking .. could you recheck those ? |
| 04:17 | Bosco | michael__, no it is not one sec and i will tell you what it is |
| 04:17 | Chaotic_Descent | glitsj16: yup. it was. I'll try another one. |
| 04:17 | pabix | smit, are you using GNOME? |
| 04:17 | Guest3043 | No, I meant packet sniffers in general, not Wireshark specifically |
| 04:17 | wols_ | michael__: pastebin those results |
| 04:17 | smit | yes |
| 04:18 | Bosco | michael_m, no it is not one sec and i will tell you what it is |
| 04:18 | Chaotic_Descent | glitsj16: ... that's funny. same error. |
| 04:18 | smit | when i type sudo lsusb nothing happens |
| 04:18 | pabix | smit, can you add to your gnome panel the "mount helper" applet? |
| 04:18 | ManualOverDozer | ethereal is in repository, or it used to be |
| 04:18 | raichlea | bobertdos, I appreciate your help but I'm so tired my eyes are crossing. I'm going to head to bed |
| 04:18 | raichlea | bobertdos, thanks agian |
| 04:18 | pabix | I do not know exactly its name in English |
| 04:18 | ManualOverDozer | ehterreal is packet sniffer, same as wireshark, which are very good packet sniffers |
| 04:18 | pabix | Maybe, disk mounter |
| 04:18 | bobertdos | raichlea: no problem |
| 04:18 | Mechdave | ManualOverDozer, I thought ethereal = wireshark |
| 04:18 | wols_ | Mechdave: yes |
| 04:18 | smit | yes |
| 04:18 | ManualOverDozer | yes it does |
| 04:18 | Bosco | michael_m, it is an atherose 5bxb63 |
| 04:18 | ManualOverDozer | i said it being some may not know |
| 04:19 | Chaotic_Descent | glitsj16: even though I switched to ALSA, I got the error: oss audio output error: cannot open audio device (/dev/dsp) |
| 04:19 | drut | kismet is also a good packet sniffer |
| 04:19 | ManualOverDozer | kismet very good as well |
| 04:19 | bobertdos | smit: Does fdisk detect the drive? |
| 04:19 | smit | my drive is not there |
| 04:19 | Bosco | michael_m, it is an atherose ar5bxb63 srry |
| 04:19 | pabix | smit, some icons will appear, maybe you will see you external drive |
| 04:19 | gnychis | how can i get VNC server to start when the machine boots so I can remote in to it, rather than only being able to remote in to it when i'm logged in? |
| 04:19 | pabix | smit, ok… maybe it is not recognised |
| 04:19 | bobertdos | smit: As in, sudo fdisk -l (in the terminal)? |
| 04:19 | wols_ | Chaotic_Descent: the program which outputs sound uses oss tho. load the alsa oss emulation layer |
| 04:19 | glitsj16 | Chaotic_Descent: try changing the settings back to default and close VLC, then reopen, not that i can explain, but just to see what's going on :) |
| 04:19 | Guest3043 | How does Kismet compare to Wireshark, IM me the answers please, I am having trouble following everything |
| 04:19 | michael__ | wols_: Timing cached reads: 1860 MB in 2.00 seconds = 930.17 MB/sec |
| 04:19 | michael__ | Timing buffered disk reads: 170 MB in 3.02 seconds = 56.26 MB/sec |
| 04:19 | pabix | open a terminal and type ls /dev/disk/by-uuid/ |
| 04:20 | smit | it is not shown in fdisk |
| 04:20 | wols_ | michael__: both disks on the same PATA cable? |
| 04:20 | Chaotic_Descent | glitsj16: I also got in between changing settings, and before I exited: main audio output error: no decoder thread |
| 04:20 | pabix | smit, try another USB plug |
| 04:20 | wols_ | smit: dmesg |grep usb |
| 04:20 | wols_ | smit: dmesg |grep -i usb |
| 04:21 | glitsj16 | wols_: true, but that doesn't explain why Cahoatic_Descent can't change his settings and get them to stick no ? |

| 04:26 | Chaotic_Descent | if refreshing the ALSA list selects the last one in the list, does that mean it's the one I'm supposed to use? |
| 04:27 | Bios_Element_ | So does anyone know any good guides for setting up Ubuntu with Speakers and a headset? |

| 04:32 | Chaotic_Descent | the_real_fourthd: what? |
| 04:32 | ManualOverDozer | spastic there is a way to p[ut your battery meter on a menu bar or task bar, whichever you choose |
| 04:32 | pabix | the_real_fourthd, I do not even have such a file on my computer, what is it for? |
| 04:32 | harpreet | Rampou: update your source list either manually or from software sources update manager |

| 04:32 | freonchill | can someone tell me why firefox has not been updated to 3.0.1 on the repositories? |
| 04:33 | the_real_fourthd | for working with modules |
| 04:33 | pabix | the_real_fourthd, I have no such file |
| 04:33 | dr_Willis | freonchill, ive heard its in the 'prposed' repos.. and after tested a bit it may move to the other repos. |
| 04:33 | pabix | locate modprobe.conf | wc => 0 0 0 |
| 04:33 | ManualOverDozer | freon, they may have removed it, being it had too many bugs to be a release |
| 04:33 | the_real_fourthd | that's odd. I guess they're dynamic. I had one, others had, and others didn't |

| 04:35 | Scientus_ | how do i find and add bonjour printers? |
| 04:35 | ManualOverDozer | thats it, if your USB wont work, the drive will never appear, no matter what you do |
| 04:35 | ManualOverDozer | USB being the issue |
| 04:35 | glitsj16 | Chaotic_Descent: many ways, but i find getting over to packages.ubuntu.com and downloading the flashplugin-nonfree .deb from there the easiest by far .. after you have that, just double-click it |
| 04:35 | smit | no ubuntu, being the issue |
| 04:35 | smit | the drives work, but not in ubuntu |
| 04:35 | smit | how do i enable drives in ubuntu |
| 04:35 | smit | i mean usb |
| 04:36 | ManualOverDozer | look in repository |
| 04:36 | dr_Willis | thats weird that usb is not working.. i imagine the usb controller may be so new its not supported.. or confusing things.. |
| 04:36 | glitsj16 | Chaotic_Descent: left out the important part, look for the Intrepid deb for flashplugin-nonfree :) |
| 04:36 | Mechdave | smit, what brand drives are they? |
| 04:36 | Zooback | would anyone know why i have a much weaker connection to my LAN when using ubuntu as opposed to running windows xp from the same machine? |
| 04:36 | ManualOverDozer | i have never seen USB fail, but then, there is always a first time |

| 04:36 | smit | also, my ubuntu load takes about 5 mins |
| 04:36 | glitsj16 | Chaotic_Descent: the Intrepid .deb is the flash player 10 beta 2 |
| 04:36 | smit | it used to be 10 seconds |
| 04:36 | spasticteapot | zooback: Quite possibly the same connection strength - Windows is likely lying. |
| 04:36 | dr_Willis | ManualOverDozer, Yea. ive only seen it once. ages ago. with a odd brand usb card. i had. |
| 04:37 | smit | i think ubuntu is broken |
| 04:37 | ManualOverDozer | Zooback i find the oposite, i have much more speed with ubuntu, on the net, than with windows |
| 04:37 | smit | how do i repair ubuntu |
| 04:37 | ManualOverDozer | dr_willis, that may be just it, old hardware |
| 04:37 | smit | actually, does the livecd contain the dvd burner |
| 04:37 | harpreet | Rampou: check whether the link exists |
| 04:37 | Mechdave | smit, I heard maxtor don't work in linux |
| 04:38 | ManualOverDozer | smit most things can be just uninstalled and reinstalled in ubuntu, not much need to reinstall or repair the whole OS, like you may have to do in widnows so many time |
| 04:38 | dr_Willis | maxtor drives? i dont know why they souldent. |
| 04:38 | Bios_Element_ | So does anyone know any good guides for setting up Ubuntu with Speakers and a headset? |
| 04:38 | smit | does the livecd contain the gnome dvd burner? |
| 04:38 | ManualOverDozer | i have tried Western Digital and Samsung, drives, never had a problem |
| 04:38 | Scientus_ | how do i find and add bonjour/avahi printers? |
| 04:38 | Chaotic_Descent | glitsj16: ... ok... it just expanded into like 50 listings, and from there, another few hundred when I took a guess on which link to click... |
| 04:38 | Amun | are there any GUI fstab editors, or walkthroughs, or faqs? i hate reading man pages. too complicated. |
| 04:38 | wols_ | smit: what makes you think it is broken? |
| 04:38 | dr_Willis | Bios_Element_, thats a little vague.. :) |
| 04:39 | smit | you guys are no help |
| 04:39 | Zooback | spasticteapot: all my updates times out and firefox runs extremely slow in ubuntu as opposed to windows |
| 04:39 | Rampou | harpreet, how i do? and if they don't exist? |
| 04:39 | glitsj16 | Chaotic_Descent: :) hang on, i'll get you the correct link .. are you on 32 bit ubuntu ? |
| 04:39 | michael_m | need help with cpu frequency scaling monitor? |
| 04:39 | ManualOverDozer | Zooback it may be a plugin for FireFoz that is hampering you. |
| 04:39 | michael_m | can someone help me? |
| 04:40 | Bios_Element_ | dr_willis, I'm trying to find a way so i can swap between the different devices such as a headset ingame and speakers for everything else and so on. But it's proving rather complex. |
| 04:40 | spasticteapot | zooback: Version? |
| 04:40 | Chaotic_Descent | glitsj16: uh... I'm using an Intel P3. ... isn't 32bit that new thing? |
| 04:40 | Zooback | spasticteapot: 8.04 hardy heron |
| 04:40 | spasticteapot | Hardware? |
| 04:40 | ManualOverDozer | michael what need do you have for CPU scaling, in most cases, it is not even needed |
| 04:40 | Scientus_ | how do i find and add bonjour/avahi printers?\ |
| 04:40 | Zooback | i'm running it off a sony vaio pc |
| 04:40 | Chaotic_Descent | I'm using Hardy Heron. |
| 04:40 | dr_Willis | Bios_Element_, i just turn the spekers off when i want to use the headsets :) on the switch i got on the desk. A lot can depend on the exact sound card you got from what ive heard. |
| 04:40 | glitsj16 | Chaotic_Descent: 64-bit is the new thing i suppose, P3 is 32 bit, i'll get the link, hold on a sec |

| 04:41 | michael_m | manualoverdozer: well my cpu will not go past 800mhz no matter what i do so i figured i could use it to set it at 1.8ghz |
| 04:41 | dr_Willis | Bios_Element_, part of the reason to the pulse audio stuff - i belive was to make such things easier. |
| 04:41 | pale-yafa | how come the www-data is not in the users list? |
| 04:41 | gnychis | how can i get VNC server to start when the machine boots so I can remote in to it, rather than only being able to remote in to it when i'm logged in? |
| 04:42 | Zooback | ManualOverDozer: i'm not using any plugins in firefox, currently i trying to run 8.04 from the live cd to see if any results change |
| 04:42 | ManualOverDozer | michael , do you happen to see a performace drop in the system, running at 800mhz? after all, cpu measuring tools are alot of times, incorrectly reading cpu speed |
| 04:42 | Bios_Element_ | dr_willis, Thanks for the help. I'll get working on seeing what I can do and be back if i can't. |
| 04:42 | ManualOverDozer | it may be that it is runing at 1.8ghz, just showing 800mhz, asd i have seen before |
| 04:43 | dr_Willis | gnychis, you can install the 'stand alone' vnc4server, or other vncserver packages, and ssh in and run them,. or set them up to run from rc.local if you wanted. No need to have a 'local' desktop (or x even) running at all. |
| 04:43 | neon | michael_m: do you have powernowd installed ? |
| 04:43 | pale-yafa | gnychis: just make it accept connections automatically, and protect this with password |
| 04:43 | dr_Willis | gnychis, people sitting at the lcoal machine cant watch what you are doing either. :) |
| 04:43 | michael_m | neon: i dont know, never heard of it |
| 04:43 | glitsj16 | Chaotic_Descent: remove what you have as flashplugin-nonfree in synaptic first and double-click this .deb file after doing that, that should give firefox the beta 10 flash plugin .. http://packages.ubuntu.com/intrepid/i386/flashplugin-nonfree/download |
| 04:43 | ManualOverDozer | isnt that in Services section ? PowerNowD ? |

| 04:44 | michael_m | neon: how do i remove it? sudo apt-get remove ? |
| 04:44 | Rampou | harpreet, ok, i'm going to check |
| 04:45 | neon | michael_m: apt-get remove powernowd |
| 04:45 | ManualOverDozer | michael i have it on a 3ghz and it reads 800mhz too, the system runs fine, and i see no drop in perfromace, the OS is incorrectly reading CPU speed |
| 04:45 | michael_m | manualoverdozer: ok ill keep that in mind, ill remove powernowd and if no performance gain ill reinstall it |

| 04:54 | rexus | what's the difference between ubuntu server and desktop aside from the LTS term |
| 04:54 | unavailable | so does anyone have a screenlet or desklet that will draw icons on the desktop yet? |
| 04:54 | Flannel | rexus: Both are LTS. Desktop has the GUI preinstalled, server doesn't. |
| 04:54 | unavailable | rexus server is text based |
| 04:55 | harpreet | rexux, server can be only terminal based while desktop can't |
| 04:55 | Flannel | harpreet: No, they both can be. |
| 04:55 | jetsaredim | where can i download intrepid beta? |
| 04:55 | unavailable | harpreet hit ctrl alt f1 once |
| 04:55 | Flannel | jetsaredim: #ubuntu+1 for intrepid questions. Also, Intrepid is ALPHA not beta. |
| 04:55 | Rampou | harpreet, I get 2 links so one of both is posted, and the other is in download, how can i install us manually? |
| 04:55 | rexus | so for home user ubuntu desktop then... |
| 04:55 | Flannel | rexus: Yes |
| 04:55 | rexus | same like fedora right? |
| 04:56 | rexus | I get the GUI and all the fancy other things right? |
| 04:56 | Rampou | harpreet, install them not us lol |

| 04:58 | Mechdave | doje, in /etc/rc.local |
| 04:58 | harpreet | Rampou: try first go to software sources and update it .... |
| 04:58 | harpreet | Rampou: then open a terminal and try installing the thing..let me know how it goes.. |
| 04:58 | glitsj16 | unavailable: any special needs to get a screenlet to put an icon on your desktop ? |
| 04:58 | unavailable | yep |
| 04:58 | unavailable | no icons |
| 04:59 | unavailable | long story short compiz and nautilus dont like each other |
| 04:59 | FenixNR | Does anyone have a manual partition walk through? Or wanna walk me through it? |
| 04:59 | Rampou | harpreet, ok, no problem |
| 04:59 | unavailable | so i need a screenlet or desklet to draw icons on my desktop |
| 04:59 | harpreet | Rampou: go for sudo apt-get update first |
| 04:59 | doje | Mechdave: I saw that file - I was confused by the start/stop bit - does that get run on shutdown as well ? |
| 05:00 | jacob_n | In hardy, how can i downgrade the japanese fonts to what they looked like in gutsy gibbon and earlier? |
| 05:00 | Flannel | FenixNR: Just fire up a liveCD with gparted and partition it how you'd like |
| 05:00 | glitsj16 | unavailable: okay, weird though, but then again i never use nautilus .. screenlets or gdesklets may have what you want |
| 05:00 | unavailable | fenixnr http://www.howtoforge.com/partitioning_with_gparted |
| 05:00 | FenixNR | Flannel, I have tried, but after I make one partition it quits letting me make anymore |
| 05:00 | harpreet | Rampou: then type sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list |
| 05:00 | unavailable | glitsj16 well so far i havent been able to find any, thats why im asking |
| 05:00 | Flannel | FenixNR: you already have some parititions on the disk, and you're adding to them? |
| 05:01 | FenixNR | I have free space that I deleted off, just for ubuntu |
| 05:01 | harpreet | Rampou: then at the bottom of the list add both two lines and save it and exit ...try installing afterwards.. got it? |
| 05:01 | glitsj16 | unavailabe: those are actual package names, screenlets look rather nice, and you can put them on the compiz 'widget layer' |
| 05:01 | unavailable | glitsj16: and the problem is when you enable different backgrounds for cube desktop, you have to disable nautilus draw desktop, which kills your icons |
| 05:01 | FenixNR | So I tried the freespace partition, after it does that, it stops on the swap with an error |
| 05:01 | Flannel | FenixNR: yes, that's not what I asked. But you do have other partitions? How many? 3? and you're trying to make at least two? |
| 05:01 | unavailable | glitsj16: yes and I use screenlets. |
| 05:02 | unavailable | glitsj16: but again i havent been able to find any |
| 05:02 | FenixNR | I have 2 partitions, C,D for my vista and backup area, then I have the free space for linux |
| 05:02 | ManualOverDozer | FinixNR is it a relatively new drive ? not some old beat up one ? |
| 05:02 | FenixNR | Brand new drive |
| 05:02 | Flannel | FenixNR: and you're trying to make how many more? |
| 05:02 | ManualOverDozer | ext part |
| 05:02 | glitsj16 | unavailable: hmm yes, true .. just the included screenlets in there i suppose, sorry for the confusion |
| 05:02 | FenixNR | Flannel, Enough to install ubuntu with |
| 05:03 | unavailable | glitsj16: and ive searched gnome-look for hours, and even came in here, and asked a while back |
| 05:03 | ManualOverDozer | FenixNR , by chance, do you have a windows installation on same drive ? |
| 05:03 | harpreet | FenixNR: you can try gparted |
| 05:03 | FenixNR | Same drive, yes |
| 05:03 | Flannel | FenixNR: That's not really helpful. Anyway, your problem *sounds* like it has to do with primary vs extended/logical partitions. |

| 05:03 | FenixNR | Flannel, It's one 500 gig hard drive, 2 ntfs file systems, and FREE SPACE for the ubuntu one. It's 133gigs. |
| 05:04 | unavailable | glitsj16: but someone told me that until they have the ability to read and update whats in a folder im out of luck |
| 05:04 | doje | pabix: probably the DISPLAY environment var isn't set properly |
| 05:04 | FenixNR | Whenever I try to partition, after the second partition wether it be the ext3 or swap, it will make the rest unusable |
| 05:04 | Flannel | FenixNR: This has nothing to do with the space. It has everything to do with the fact you can only have four primary partitions (or three primary and one exteneded) partition. |
| 05:04 | pabix | doje, actually it is empty |
| 05:04 | unavailable | huh? |
| 05:04 | ManualOverDozer | Flannel has the idea |
| 05:04 | pabix | but I don't know what to set |
| 05:05 | unavailable | lemmie think here a min... |
| 05:05 | harpreet | FenixNR: you have to manually make the rest of the area ext3/2 |

| 05:10 | Tarelerulz_man | Is there any program for windows that wil let me edit text files in my Ubuntu install. I wanted to mess with the menu.lst file for grub |

| 05:12 | [GuS] | Hi guys.. since a few days (after i think a upgrade of some packages) my email server stopped to work cause of amavisd-new: Starting amavisd: Error in config file "/etc/amavis/conf.d/05-domain_id": Insecure directory in $ENV{PATH} while running with -T switch at /etc/amavis/conf.d/05-domain_id line 7. |
| 05:12 | [GuS] | any know something about this? |
| 05:12 | ManualOverDozer | smit , have you checked your system BIOS/CMOS to ensure your USB is enabled ? |
| 05:12 | timsandtoms | I've already installed WinXP and Ubuntu 7.10, but can I resize my Ubuntu partition, and make ANOTHER install of Ubuntu(Or some other distro), without screwing anything up? |
| 05:12 | harpreet | n-iCe_: change permissions of the file with nautilus from root to your root(username) u know how to do that? |
| 05:12 | rexus | !backports |

| 05:13 | Flannel | jetsaredim: FDISK was limited to 23, and newer windows can accesss up to 670. However, logical partitions are more of a linked list, and there are in fact an unlimited number of them |
| 05:13 | smit | i will restart and check |
| 05:13 | ubunubi | anyone know if using "persistent" mode...ubuntu only writes to the image files at shutdown, or periodically during the session? |
| 05:13 | dianapo | !ndiswrapper >dianapo |
| 05:13 | ubottu | dianapo, please see my private message |
| 05:13 | n-iCe_ | harpreet: of what file |
| 05:13 | ManualOverDozer | if you have windows and linux on same drive, try using Partition Magic within windows to create linux partition, if that helps any |
| 05:13 | ManualOverDozer | ok smit |
| 05:13 | Tarelerulz_man | timsandtom gparted is great tool for resizeing ntfs partiton and what not |
| 05:13 | harpreet | n-iCe_: of the file it is denying permission |
| 05:13 | jetsaredim | Flannel: i stand corrected |
| 05:13 | FenixNR | harpreet, after doing what you have said, I get an error, it says: The ext3 file system creation in partition #4 of SCSI3 (0,0,0) (sda) failed. |
| 05:14 | alisasexy | Escriba el texto aquí....hi |
| 05:14 | Flannel | jetsaredim: Of course, I can't see why anyone would want to make so many partitions, but they could if they wanted to. |
| 05:14 | SSDF | Hey, when I download a theme and extract the files to .theme, then go into appearances and click install and go to that folder in .themes there is nothing there to install |

| 05:14 | unavailable | to anyone who runs a cpu temp monitor: how often does your temp change degrees? |
| 05:14 | n-iCe_ | harpreet: no idea, how |
| 05:14 | FenixNR | unavailable, all the time, anytime it starts processing or stops processing information |
| 05:14 | glitsj16 | unavailable: last idea --> try changing /etc/compizconfig/config .. set the relevant "integration" settings from "true" to "false" for "general" and the session you use (either gnome or KDE) |
| 05:14 | ubunubi | unavailable: depends on what rate you have your monitor to update |
| 05:14 | harpreet | n-iCe_: try sudo nautilus |
| 05:14 | alisasexy | hello girl I want to see me in the Latino cam I'm alone |
| 05:14 | alisasexy | cam |
| 05:14 | ManualOverDozer | unavailable depends on what i am doing, it may vary about 10*c or 15*F |
| 05:15 | unavailable | thx |
| 05:15 | nickrud | SSDF extracting the files into ~/.themes is the installation, take a look under the customize button on the appearances dialog |
| 05:15 | ManualOverDozer | just a quess, but its not much |
| 05:15 | timsandtoms | Tarelerulz_man, I don't wanna screw with my NTFS partition, I want to resize my ext3 partition and install Ubuntu AGAIN on it. So instead of having one partition for Ubuntu and one for WinXP, I'd have TWO copies of Ubuntu installed and one copy of WinXP. But I just realized that was incredibly stupid and I could just make a new user account in Ubuntu... |
| 05:15 | ManualOverDozer | i run AMD/Mobile so its low temp. |
| 05:15 | n-iCe_ | harpreet: same |
| 05:15 | Shish | hey, i dunno if this makes sense.. but my sound is working on ubuntu hardy, except for when i try to play a movie.. any movie -- where the sound worked before on ... ? help please.. |
| 05:15 | ManualOverDozer | Shish CODECS ? |
| 05:16 | FenixNR | If I have 4 gigs of ram, do I even need a swap? |
| 05:16 | nickrud | SSDF for 90% of themes that is. Some need some compilation, or are don't have the proper directory structure without manual intervention |
| 05:16 | Flannel | FenixNR: Do you plan on hibernating? |
| 05:16 | Shish | ManualOverDozer: they should be fine, cause the sound worked on the same movies yesterday...actually even 5 hours ago |
| 05:16 | timsandtoms | FenixNR, are you planning on hibernating? |
| 05:16 | FenixNR | timsandtoms nope |
| 05:16 | harpreet | FenixNR: it didnt say anything else why or anything? |
| 05:16 | FenixNR | harpreet, no that is the only information |
| 05:16 | timsandtoms | FenixNR, then you don't need it. |
| 05:16 | Rampou | harpreet, when i put the link at the bottom of the sources.list it's tell me after apt-upade that there's a problem with this line :/ |
| 05:17 | Tarelerulz_man | timesand , I used gparted to rezise my ntfs partiton for an ubuntu instal. It worked for me. YOu will have to make extented partion so you can have more then 4 partitoin |
| 05:17 | mewshi | alright, i'm getting VERY frustrated |
| 05:17 | FenixNR | I don't believe in hibernation on a desktop. |
| 05:17 | harpreet | Rampou delete that line and save the file |
| 05:17 | harpreet | from terminal |
| 05:17 | genii | FenixNR: Well, it exists |
| 05:17 | mewshi | I can't get my wireless to work. Once again -_- |
| 05:17 | mewshi | Could someone help me with this piece of crap? |
| 05:17 | timsandtoms | Tarelerulz_man, no no no, you missunderstood me. Twice. Nevermind ;) I had a better idea anyways. |
| 05:17 | FenixNR | geniii, it won't after I get in and remove the option. |
| 05:17 | Rampou | harpreet, i've made, thank |
| 05:18 | nickrud | genii I wanted to answer that line, but yours was perfect ;) |
| 05:18 | genii | FenixNR: Good point :) |
| 05:18 | wolv | hi |
| 05:18 | FenixNR | Funny thing is, 2 main partitions, and 3 total now, and it still won't let me make the partition. |
| 05:18 | unavailable | shish try killall pulseaudio? |
| 05:18 | glitsj16 | FenixNR: if you're already set to get rid of the swap, why bother asking ? |
| 05:18 | harpreet | FenixNR: try decreasing the size of the drive you are creating... |
| 05:18 | Shish | unavailable: k, ill try that right now |
| 05:18 | wolv | need some help in creating new partiton in ubuntu |
| 05:18 | FenixNR | The ext3 file system creating in partition #3 of SCSI3 (9,9,9) (sda) failed. |
| 05:18 | wolv | can anyone help me? |
| 05:19 | FenixNR | 0,0,0* |
| 05:19 | unavailable | Shish: and if nothing comes back do it again until it says no processes killed |
| 05:19 | FenixNR | harpreet, it's only 130 gigs |
| 05:19 | Tarelerulz_man | timsand I understand I am just saying make partitoin out of ntfs is easy with gpart and it does linux's partition type as well. The partition type will need to be change so you can have more then 4 partitions. I had to do that to have 3 os on my system. |
| 05:19 | ManualOverDozer | smit ? |
| 05:19 | unavailable | but it will probably say no processes killed right away |
| 05:19 | pabix | wolv, dont ask to ask, ask |
| 05:19 | harpreet | FenixNR: make it FAT and try formatting |
| 05:19 | Shish | unavailable: wow..... so it didnt say no processes killed.. right away.. but the sound works now |
| 05:19 | FenixNR | harpreet, Just formatted it again :( |
| 05:19 | Shish | unavailable: lol, thank you very much |
| 05:19 | unavailable | yep |
| 05:20 | mewshi | Could someone help me with my damn wireless? |
| 05:20 | unavailable | plug a cord in?? |
| 05:20 | nickrud | mewshi um, no one has a clue about what's wrong, how about some diagnostics? |
| 05:20 | Stupid | in css howto control the position of the tabs on the homepage of ubuntuforum, such as Register "Forum Help" |
| 05:21 | mewshi | bcm4318, it scans, i can use iwconfig to supposedly connect to a network, but it never actually does anything |
| 05:21 | wolv | I have 120 GB sata hdd, while installing ubuntu i left 70GB as 'unallocated space and use remaining (20G for '/' and 20G for /home) now I want to add another partition to store my data from that unallocated space how can I do it? |
| 05:21 | nickrud | Stupid this isn't a css channel, sorry. Maybe someone in #ubuntu-offtopic will be interested |
| 05:21 | luthovien | good night all. |
| 05:21 | unavailable | Stupid: well you would have to visit http:///www.w3schools.com for information on web / cascading style sheets info |
| 05:21 | pabix | wolv, System_> Administration > Partition editor |
| 05:21 | ManualOverDozer | smit how did it turn out ? |
| 05:21 | wolv | I tried creating partiton using Gparted |
| 05:22 | smit | everything is enabled, but nothing works, still |
| 05:22 | mewshi | it says its connected under iwconfig, but it doesn't let me connect to everything |
| 05:22 | wolv | it creates partiton but when I mount it it shows only lost+found folder |
| 05:22 | luthovien | have any of you guys been able to setup wifi on a eee pc on ubuntu intrepid? |
| 05:22 | ManualOverDozer | smit is that a prebuilt system like Dell or something like it ? |
| 05:22 | pabix | wolv, then the partition is created |
| 05:22 | unavailable | wolv 70 + 20 + 20 does not = 120 |
| 05:22 | nickrud | mewshi I'm not a wireless expert by any stretch of the imagination, but di you run dhclient ? |
| 05:22 | mewshi | what...? O.o |
| 05:23 | smit | manualoverdozer, no, it is custom |
| 05:23 | wolv | I know its 110 + 2GB swap |
| 05:23 | smit | manualoverdozer, everything was working fine earlier today |
| 05:23 | unavailable | ok |
| 05:23 | nickrud | mewshi dhclient gets the ip address from the router, and sets up access to internet |
| * unavailable thinks that still doesnt add up |
| 05:23 | wolv | after creating partiton I cant create new folder on it |
| 05:23 | wolv | unavailable, cause 120 = 112GB |
| 05:23 | mewshi | OH! o.o |
| 05:23 | mewshi | um... how do I run that? |
| 05:23 | sdakak | I have vbox running Windows XP as guestOS. I just get a black bar around my windows desktop. How do I get the traditional in-window guest-OS? |
| 05:24 | pabix | wolv, ok, because it is not mounted with sufficient rights |
| 05:24 | ManualOverDozer | smit have you run windows on that sme box and USB works within windows ? |
| 05:24 | smit | usb was working within ubuntu earlier today |
| 05:24 | itai-michaelson | hi, whenever i login/logout or close full screen applications my monitor (syncmaster 943) pops a notice recomending 1440X990 resolution , is there anyway to stop it from doing so? |
| 05:24 | wolv | ok so what can I do so I can store my data (songs and setups) |
| * unavailable now thinks math class was lying but hey its probably a b B conversion thing |
| 05:24 | ManualOverDozer | smit have you updated anything or changed any settings since it was working ? |
| 05:24 | harpreet | n-iCe_: try only su on the terminal |
| 05:24 | pabix | wolv, could you use paste (http://paste.ubuntu.com/) the result of tho command "mount" ? |
| 05:24 | smit | i think i update bios |
| 05:25 | nickrud | mewshi not exactly sure to tell you the truth. I just use NetworkManager in gnome, I've seen others talk about it. sudo dhclient <interface> I think |
| 05:25 | smit | i dont know if it happened right after |
| 05:25 | alisasexy | I like playing for the camera with very bad boys |
| 05:25 | harpreet | n-iCe_: i meant "su" enter then give terminal ur password |
| 05:25 | ManualOverDozer | smit well that can surely do something of what you speak. |
| 05:25 | smit | should i downgrade? |
| 05:25 | wolv | I m not using terminal to mount |

| 05:29 | ajhtiredwolf | Hey there was a feature in compiz that i really loved, similar to the Mac osx document selector. You could move your mouse to the corner of the screen and it shrunk all windows and displayed them all at the same time. Can this still be used? |
| 05:29 | nickrud | ajhtiredwolf yes, its called scale |
| 05:29 | pabix | ajhtiredwolf, it can be used |
| 05:29 | glitsj16 | ajhtiredwolf: yep, it's the 'scale' plugin |
| 05:29 | pabix | You have to instal compizconfig-settings package or a name like that |

| 05:34 | nickrud | weretac0 hm, the sad thing is I don't have an ntfs partition to compare to. A sec while I refresh memory. Or maybe pabix has it in his head, he's doing fstab at the moment |
| 05:35 | pabix | nickrud, I suck at ntfs |
| === mcasadevall_ is now known as NCommander |
