| pixelmonkey | dajar, mget really shouldn't be used for directory-getting, as explained in the ftp manpage. The ftp manpage reccomends you tar and download the tar archive. I, instead, use wget in --mirror mode | 12:34 |

| cthulfuego | Speckmade: That's *exactly* the reason root isn't enabled. It's beyond inadvisable. | 01:18 |
| Seveas | so go to linspire if you insist on doing that... | 01:18 |
| sproingie | poningru: what would the point of that be | 01:18 |

| pestilence | Octane: so boot into recovery mode | 05:10 |
| Octane | pestilence, right but how can i unmount it ..... i tried booting in recovery mode but i need to mount *something* as root | 05:10 |
| TresEquis | Octane: which means, for /, that you need to boot from CD | 05:10 |
| TresEquis | or USB drive | 05:10 |

| starshine | quam: yes but that means the problem lies in what gnome will recognize. we know for sure it recognizes TTFs, which is why I'm concentrating there, instead of for instance on type I of which there are oodles of decent fonts | 05:45 |
| TiMiDo | stupid like? | 05:45 |
| TiMiDo | described the behavior | 05:46 |

| quam | i dont need a damn background in terminals :P | 06:40 |
| quam | that's windowsish :P | 06:40 |
| Razor-X | quam: even with the background, it's still much lighter than xterm | 06:40 |
| starshine | quam: probably *too* simple, here we were all going for glorious and your app wanted dull | 06:40 |

| bionic | miracleblue, im sorry, Razor-X or something gotta take over, im dead tired, i will try to help tomorrow tho. gn | 06:40 |
| starshine | quam: costs a little less memory. xterm has support for vector graphics and some keysets pretending to be termtypes most people have long since forgotten | 06:41 |
| cary | anyone, how do i get out of "less" as in i did "less yaboot.conf" ..how do i get out of that | 06:41 |

| === cary [~cary___@user-12hcv7n.cable.mindspring.com] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| RattUs | how i do that? | 07:54 |
| cary | pfp, well..i am booted into osx | 07:54 |
| djs | RattUs: Yes pfp | 07:54 |
| cary | by default! pfp | 07:55 |
| cary | so that worked pfp | 07:55 |
| djs | RattUs: ps aux | grep xscreensaver | 07:55 |
| darkcmd | does anyone know if smeg works under debian? | 07:55 |
| pfp | RattUs: ps auxw | grep -i xscreensaver | 07:55 |
| cary | so maybe the bootload thing will have updated for linux. i suppose ill reboot and see what happens when i go to linux | 07:55 |
| pfp | cary: cool | 07:55 |
| djs | pfp: jinx (nearly!) :) | 07:55 |
| RattUs | it came up with 2 entries | 07:55 |
| djs | RattUs: kill <process with the highest number> | 07:56 |
| concept10 | darkcmd, it should. check the homepage for the deb | 07:56 |
| RattUs | ok | 07:56 |
| darkcmd | http://www.realistanew.com/projects/smeg/ ? | 07:56 |
| concept10 | Yes. | 07:56 |
| RattUs | so just kill processno ? | 07:56 |
| djs | RattUs: yes | 07:56 |
| pfp | RattUs: but don't kill the grep process (which is already dead) | 07:57 |
| djs | pfp: good point :) | 07:57 |

| === cary [~cary@user-12hcv7n.cable.mindspring.com] has joined #ubuntu | ||

| brodmann | gotcha ben | 08:08 |
| cary | pfp, guess it worked. i had only the one option, and it boots. took long enough right? | 08:09 |
| benplaut | in linux, you have "repositories"... you install everything (almost, anyway) from one big site, through a program called Synaptic | 08:09 |

| benplaut | SpecialBuddy: go to System>Admin>Synaptic Package Manager | 08:10 |
| benplaut | brodmann: so... the installer worked? | 08:10 |

| benplaut | maybe "plane-shift" | 08:12 |

| pfp | cary: ah | 08:13 |
| cary | but pretty much all my sounds..like if a sound plays, then you play it again..its softer, and softer, and softer each time. and an mp3 sounds like a bucket of crap in a hallway a mile down the road | 08:13 |
| benplaut | weems: keep out of Breezy... it's nowhere near being ready for the public | 08:13 |
| SpecialBuddy | so if I want something, I download it with synaptic | 08:13 |
| pfp | cary: lol | 08:13 |
| SpecialBuddy | ? | 08:13 |
| pfp | cary: probably the kernel fix si what you need, since _all_ sound is f'd up | 08:14 |

| benplaut | SpecialBuddy: yeah... and if it isn't there, ask here on the exact way to install it :) | 08:14 |

| benplaut | ask away :) | 08:16 |
| benplaut | pfp: i did... | 08:16 |
| pfp | cary: most, but there's closed source too, like acrobat reader, some games | 08:17 |

| pfp | cary: PM me if something comes up | 08:18 |
| cary | will do. you rock | 08:18 |
| benplaut | SpecialBuddy: you will probably have to do the install with the hard drive plugged into USB, instead of onto the motherboard... i think GRUB will mess up (not a good thing) | 08:19 |

| vinux | davidmccabe, you need to fix that refresh rate as soon as possible if you like your monitor :) | 08:41 |
| siimo | davidmccabe, just copy everything | 08:41 |
| FR500 | i like gentoo live cd for fixing or backing up files in damaged pcs | 08:42 |
| davidmccabe | is the GNOME screen resolution control panel known to not actually do anything? | 08:42 |
| FR500 | so colorful | 08:42 |
| davidmccabe | because I set it to the exact same refresh as I had before. | 08:42 |

| FR500 | davidmccabe, sometimes when you have the wrong drivers it doesnt work | 08:42 |
| davidmccabe | k. | 08:43 |
| siimo | davidmccabe, you need to have the res rates and frequencies correct in your X config file for it to work | 08:43 |
| davidmccabe | I just installed the binary drivers. | 08:43 |
| davidmccabe | I'll check out the x config file. | 08:43 |

| davidmccabe | it's late at night here. | 08:45 |
| vinux | Kakason, you trader! lol i'm just joking really | 08:45 |
| kzm | Kakason, :-) why? I mean, if you want to install something else, just install it over Ubuntu. | 08:45 |
| Kakason | I just wanted to re-size the partition Ubuntu is on | 08:45 |
| FR500 | vinux, as soon as it's ready, i can offer it for you | 08:45 |

| vinux | tuppa, hehe | 08:48 |
| kzm | Kakason, it's possible to resize a partition without touching the contents (at least if you use the device mapper), but if it's a fresh install anyway, you might as well reinstall. | 08:48 |
| Kakason | kzm: ok | 08:49 |

| odie5533 | Dam totem won't play mp3's either | 09:40 |
| r0d | lol codec | 09:41 |
| r0d | once synaptic stops being gay ill tell you the names | 09:41 |
| r0d | or u can just use the ubuntu wiki thats wher ei found it | 09:41 |
| finlaylabs | cazabam: Good 2cu again. I have set up 1024x768 and 800x600 in xorg.conf, but under user System>Preferences>Screen Resolution I can only access 800x600... | 09:42 |

| r0d | i do, look on the bottom of that url odie5533 | 09:44 |
| r0d | it point u to ubuntu. just giving you through explanation | 09:45 |
| cazabam | odie5533, try using totem-xine - it's much nicer than totem-gstreamer and plays more formats, including DVD :) | 09:45 |
| odie5533 | how do I run totem-xine? | 09:46 |
| cazabam | odie5533, apt-get install totem-xine - it will remove totem-gstreamer and install itself. if you don't like, just apt-get install totem-gstreamer and it all goes back | 09:47 |
| Burgundavia | odie5533, install it and run movie player from the menus | 09:47 |
| cazabam | odie5533, it's just a back end - totem stays the same | 09:47 |
| odie5533 | This is playing the dvd... however, its very choppy just like on VLC | 09:48 |

| odie5533 | I saw that somewhere, any link? | 09:49 |
| cazabam | hold on.. there is link | 09:49 |
| odie5533 | got it | 09:49 |
| finlaylabs | cazabam: "Removing mode (1024x768) larger than the LCD panel (800x600)" Well I can SEE its physically NOT larger than the panel. | 09:49 |
| cazabam | https://wiki.ubuntu.com//DMA | 09:49 |
| cazabam | finlaylabs, so it thinks your monitor is incapable? | 09:50 |
| finlaylabs | cazabam: yep. | 09:50 |
| r0d | odie5533, gstreamer0.8-mad package is what u need for mp3 | 09:50 |
| odie5533 | Why should I use totem-xine instead of totem-gstreamer? | 09:50 |
| cazabam | odie5533, I generally find it less flaky when playing DVDs | 09:51 |
| finlaylabs | cazabam: I may have run 800x600 emulated to 1024x768-size on another distro if that makes sense? Where is X reading the size of the screen from? | 09:51 |
| odie5533 | cazabam: What is the difference? | 09:51 |
| cazabam | finlaylabs: ah, so you are using a 1024x768 virtual desktop with an 800x600 'real' resolution? | 09:52 |
| r0d | anyone know how to change your gdm welcome screen resolution btw? | 09:52 |
| marcrho | q | 09:52 |
| cazabam | odie5533, gstreamer is the gnome media backend, and is quite crippled (mp3, dvd etc have to be manually added) and xine is a different, independant backend | 09:52 |
| marcrho | \quit | 09:52 |
| cazabam | odie5533, you won't see any difference from the user's perspective | 09:53 |

| Kamping_Kaiser | r0d, Linux thin clinets i can handle, Windows will be interesting to say the least | 10:30 |
| r0d | Kamping_Kaiser, group policy can be nasty w/ NT4 | 10:30 |

| snoozy | why cant i get 'cannot be authorised' when i try and install w32codecs ? | 11:58 |
| misaka | joda - Dunno, maybe it's the ext3 log area, I didn't think it'd show up like that though. How big is the partition? | 11:58 |
| snoozy | why do i | 11:58 |
| joda | 182gb | 11:58 |
| misaka | snoozy - authorised or authenticated? | 11:58 |

| opteron | sry for noob question | 11:59 |

| Kamping_Kaiser | yahalom, do you have ssh server installed? | 12:53 |
| yahalom | thoreauputic, Dalkus anyway i can tell who it was. i'm looking at intrusions. i see samba. i dont use samba. what should i look for? | 12:53 |

| Dalkus | yahalom, you could check your ssh logs to see if anyone connected, if they did you'll have their ip | 12:53 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | and last | 12:54 |
| thoreauputic | yahalom: if you don't use it, uninstall it | 12:54 |

| thoreauputic | yahalom: yes, maybe your system just weirded out somehow ;) | 02:23 |
| misaka | crush - If you're into checking out SQL dbs, it's worth looking at. It's a totally different approach ... I've used Oracle, PostgreSQL, MSAccess, MySQL, etc ... but SQLite is just awesome. | 02:23 |
| zyth | thierry_, paste.ubuntulinux.nl | 02:23 |
| misaka | But then, I've always prefered simpler over unnecessarily complex. | 02:24 |
| rommer | how do i install php with the gd module | 02:24 |
| crush | Someone was correct by saying above that it's similar across databases, though. | 02:24 |
| refuze2looze | zyth, i read one a long time ago... so i don't even remember. just go with one that looks good =p | 02:24 |
| zyth | lol k | 02:24 |
| misaka | rommer - There appears to be a package for it. | 02:24 |
| crush | sqlite better than Oracle? | 02:24 |
| misaka | crush - Yup. | 02:24 |
| misaka | crush - It's way different ... it's way better for me because of it's design approach. Simpler == better. | 02:25 |
| thierry_ | zyth : what is it for? | 02:25 |
| rommer | but is there any other configuration needed to apache/php config files | 02:25 |
| thoreauputic | yahalom: note that anything that shows up in the firestarter GUI isn't an intrusion: it's a blocked connection | 02:25 |
| misaka | I took at installing Oracle on my Linux system recently, it was rediculous. | 02:25 |
| zyth | thierry_, pasting into the channel is generally bad. Use paste.ubuntulinux.nl, then ask if people can look at it. | 02:25 |
| thierry_ | k | 02:25 |
| yahalom | thoreauputic, right. i just thought maybe it said it blocked what it didnt | 02:25 |
| misaka | crush - sqlite is better only because it fills in a badly needed niche in SQL dbs ... command-line run, zero configuration, just run it and it works. | 02:26 |
| zyth | i need a firefox extention to block these pop ups that get around the pop up blocker, grr | 02:26 |
| crush | I've spent the last five years as an Oracle DBA. Installiing it is ridiculous. | 02:26 |

| sputnik | ok, do i need to do anything to configure it or something? | 04:05 |
| ThE__OnE | jnoreiko, the reason i asked that is so that i can copy and plaste where the file is located fast | 04:05 |

| jnoreiko | ah | 04:05 |
| thoreauputic | m0r0n: if your CD is /dev/hdc, try "eject /dev/hdc" | 04:05 |

| jnoreiko | in that case, ThE__OnE, drag the folder onto a terminal window | 04:05 |

| SoSamSaid | Hi, I'm installing ubuntu for the first time (switching from fedora) and for some reason during the network configuration step of the installation, it can't automatically configure with DHCP. we've just got a regular home NetGear router that's definitely using DHCP because all my other systems use it with no problems. Does anyone know why ubuntu would have trouble communicating with my router? | 06:47 |
| selinium | thoreauputic: I have tried to link two folders with sudo ln -s /home/james/.xMule/Incoming/link_to_music/ /home/james/.music/ It does not seem to work... Can you see where i have gone wrong? | 06:47 |
| [steev] | hey all, does the person who develops pmount hang out in here? | 06:47 |
| copyrightNinja | reason I ask is that it's an older machine I'm using as a test box, and I don't have much space to spare:) | 06:47 |
| [steev] | selinium: is it not your own folder? | 06:48 |
| Danar | SoSamSaid: have you verified that it's DHCP broadcasting? | 06:48 |

| TFP | ah ok? anyone here using this repo, too? | 07:03 |
| djm62 | SoSamSaid: if you don't own it, be conservative...you can dual boot and set the default to windows with a short-ish timeout | 07:03 |

| SoSamSaid | yeah, I own it. I can do whatever I want. they just use it a lot when I'm not around. it only has 10 GBs so dual boot would cut the disk space basically in half. I'll just make them deal | 07:04 |
| Danar | SoSamSaid: configure it to behave similar to windows and they may barely even know the difference, depending on how much they know | 07:04 |

| Seveas | ok | 07:45 |
| Danar | ThE__OnE: you do have a firewall: iptables | 07:45 |

| ThE__OnE | nope | 07:45 |
| Danar | ThE__OnE: it's just set to allow everything by default | 07:46 |

| vinux | thoreauputic, you see the problem I think when I was running my new kernel when I removed nvidia driver and reinstalled it. It reinstalled it to the old kernel again, I might be wrong but it also could be because of the configure files still left on from the old kernel too | 08:06 |
| JDahl | cyberix, tell me about it! and then the should convince MS to either stop advertising their free dumbed down compiler or make it compatible with GNU tools | 08:07 |

| Echylo | do there exists scripts that shutdown your pc after a specified time? | 08:39 |
| thoreauputic | Heimdall: no we're just joking | 08:40 |
| jmain | Heimdall: Are you using the Windows box as an internet connection sharing box? | 08:40 |
| thoreauputic | Heimdall: it's easier if your question is clear and concise though :) | 08:40 |
| dr_willis | Echylo, never seen such a thing. never wanted one :P | 08:40 |
| djm62 | Echylo: you can use "at" to do so | 08:40 |
| ompaul | Heimdall, it is only please ask, but if you can put all the info even stuff you consider a little off topic in one line it is easier to read that is all | 08:40 |
| Echylo | dr_willis, my mom would like it ;) | 08:40 |
| Echylo | and I like to have a nice night instead of "why is that computer still on" | 08:40 |
| dr_willis | leave it on 24/7 - it dosent matter | 08:40 |
| owen__ | heimdall, do you want to move from server to windows machine to linux machine? you could use pscp to get from server to windows, then use it again to put it on the linux server. | 08:40 |

| Heimdall | hum let me time to type it, cause I'm french you know... quite hard for me ::) | 08:41 |
| Echylo | no :) | 08:41 |
| djm62 | Echylo: the "at" command allows you to run commands at a particular time, with easy syntax | 08:41 |
| Echylo | djm62, thanks I'll figure it out | 08:41 |
| thoreauputic | Heimdall: ah,, je m'excuse, mon ami - je ne le savais pas | 08:42 |
| Echylo | Heimdall, as long as you don't try to pronounce english, it's allright :) | 08:42 |
| djm62 | Echylo: the command being "shutdown -h now" | 08:42 |
| Heimdall | hihi thoreauputic | 08:42 |
| Heimdall | lol | 08:42 |
| Echylo | Heimdall, just kidding :) | 08:42 |
| Heimdall | let me tyyyyyyyyyype it | 08:42 |
| Heimdall | ;) | 08:42 |
| dr_willis | ThE__OnE, I think you change the Link in /etc/alternatives is one way | 08:42 |
| Echylo | ok thanks djm62 | 08:42 |
| djm62 | Echylo: actually I'm an idiot...shutdown includes a damn time delay, which is why you type "now" to do it at the present time | 08:43 |
| ompaul | Heimdall, type away, we are not needing a reply, when you are finished we will most likely still be here, ces't bon non? | 08:43 |
| Echylo | :D | 08:43 |
| thoreauputic | Heimdall: C'est peut-etre une bonne idee si tu ecrit ta question en avance.. ? | 08:43 |

| thoreauputic | Heimdall: man scp is not too hard... honestly ;) | 08:47 |
| Heimdall | thoreauputic : yes I know the syntax, the problem is that your command is to be typed on my local machine | 08:47 |
| ompaul | Heimdall, your local box is windows? | 08:47 |
| Heimdall | and I wand to type on the distant terminal | 08:47 |
| Heimdall | no but the problem is that it is not a "one step ssh" connexion | 08:47 |
| ompaul | Heimdall, ssh -C user@othermachine:: then scp | 08:47 |
| thoreauputic | Heimdall: so connect to the distant one, then reverse the syntax | 08:47 |
| Heimdall | there is two ssh connexion | 08:48 |

| Heimdall | thoreauputic : this is not a solution :) | 08:52 |
| PoopinClumpin | XRoader, you'll want to edit the /etc/fstab file to tell linux to mount the /home directory to the partiion you want | 08:52 |

| ompaul | Heimdall, you should also 'ssh -C username@host' and 'scp -C username@otherhost1' as the C compresses but you need to make a direct connection or hop the files of the server in the middle there is no other option using scp | 08:55 |

| davidmccabe | So in gentoo, if you want to install a package yourself, witohut using the package manager, you put its name in /etc/portage/packages.provided so that the package manager will know that it's installed for dependency purposes. Is tere anything like that in ubuntu? | 09:50 |
