[01:51] <osfameron> anyone know how to downgrade wine?
[01:51] <osfameron> 20050725 doesn't work
[01:51] <osfameron> but doing force version unmarks the package (in synaptic)
[01:51] <Karhuton> fglrx-driver depends on libc6 (>= 2.3.2.ds1-21); however:   \n    Version of libc6 on system is 2.3.2.ds1-20ubuntu14.
[01:51] <osfameron> and marking it again has it set to download 20050725 again
[01:51] <osfameron> software-- :-(

[01:57] <topyli> actually it's been in backports for a while
[01:57] <topyli> but it's terribly old =)

[01:59] <echylo> I guess he has a plane
[01:59] <echylo> or a boat
[01:59] <Phuzion> Seriously, is it by USPS, or UPS, or Fed Ex?
[01:59] <fatcap> prolly usps
[01:59] <fatcap> cause that would take the longest
[02:00] <Phuzion> Alright, cool, so there's no worrying about signing for them
[02:00] <fatcap> :P
[02:00] <fatcap> eh usps makes u sign for stuff
[02:00] <BollocksMacenzie> My discs came by bog-standard post!
[02:00] <Phuzion> But then I have to tell my dad that there's going to be a big package addressed to me at his door one day.
[02:00] <echylo> one day is a big word too
[02:00] <BollocksMacenzie> From Schipol in The Netherlands.
[02:00] <echylo> lool
[02:01] <BollocksMacenzie> Yeh, mine took forever and a day to arrive!
[02:01] <thoreauputic> waiting for shipit CDs is a bit like waiting for the next Debian Stable release...
[02:01] <Phuzion> This will be cool, just being able to hand out Linux to people that wanna try it.
[02:01] <fatcap> yeh post office is quick like tha
[02:01] <fatcap> t
[02:01] <bimberi> thoreauputic: have you ever received any?
[02:01] <decaf> of course they are using the chiepest way. takes two months to middleeast. but it came finally
[02:02] <thoreauputic> bimberi: I got the warty ones
[02:02] <Phuzion> I downloaded mine.
[02:02] <thoreauputic> bimberi: my Hoary CDs I got at Ubuntu Downunder
[02:02] <bimberi> thoreauputic: same here - but no hoary - always wondered if i should create a new shipit a/c
[02:02] <bimberi> bimberi: i got 1 hoary at linuxconf
[02:02] <Phuzion> How much does it cost to get these things pressed?
[02:03] <bimberi> *thoreaputic
[02:03] <decaf> we find people to try 6 x86, one amd64. still searching 2 amd64 and one ppc
[02:03] <thoreauputic> bimberi: I also got a free Ubuntu T-Shirt! *g*
[02:03] <Phuzion> I hate you
[02:03] <Skhokho> where
[02:03] <Phuzion> I want an Ubuntu shirt
[02:03] <decaf> bittorrent is always fastest
[02:03] <bimberi> bimberi: hah - can't top that :D
[02:03] <thoreauputic> Ubuntu Downunder
[02:03] <Phuzion> Bastard
[02:03] <funkyHat> huh!
[02:04] <funkyHat> :( iwant a tshirt
[02:04] <decaf> funkyHat: me too. an XXXL (in europe sizes)
[02:04] <thoreauputic> ;)
[02:04] <funkyHat> heh, medium or small would be better for me :P
[02:04] <tomas^_^> sir. how to run php file on my ubuntu ??
[02:05] <tomas^_^> simple i have script write on *.php and how to run it
[02:05] <tomas^_^> can help me sir
[02:05] <fatcap> how do i use alien to install an rpm from a website?
[02:05] <Phuzion> Install PHP, and Apache from their respective site, and it should work
[02:05] <Phuzion> www.php.net and www.apache.net respectively
[02:05] <funkyHat> fatcap, sudo alien -i packagename
[02:06] <fatcap> cool.
[02:06] <thoreauputic> fatcap:  alien file.rpm ; sudo dpg -i file.deb
[02:06] <decaf> sir? that's me. tomas^_^ : may be you should learn "shebang" something like #/usr/bin/php
[02:06] <thoreauputic> *dpkg -i
[02:06] <tomas^_^> so i must install apache and php5 first ??
[02:07] <Phuzion> If you want it to process it correctly, yes.
[02:07] <decaf> tomas^_^: try "apt-get install php". thats the trick
[02:07] <Phuzion> I keep forgetting about apt-get
[02:07] <Phuzion> That thing is freakin magic in a can.
[02:07] <iiiears> lol
[02:07] <topyli> apt-forget
[02:07] <persia> tomas: sudo aptitude install livapache-mod-php4 or libapache2-mod-php5
[02:07] <Phuzion> apt-give
[02:07] <thoreauputic> Phuzion: never forget apt!
[02:08] <thoreauputic> very apt, indeed
[02:08] <topyli> apt-forget install windows
[02:08] <tomas^_^> persia <== without apache ??
[02:08] <iiiears> apt-get is wonderful. - no need to see a website if you already know what you want.
[02:08] <thoreauputic> topyli: you forgot --purge ;)
[02:08] <decaf> Phuzion: we say "kap getir". this means "grab and fetch" in turkish
[02:08] <hunger_> How is networking set up in breezy nowadays? The debian way no longer works for me (interfaces are not configured properly) and network manager doesen't do much either.
[02:08] <Phuzion> tomas^_^, are you programming for PHP 4 or PHP 5?
[02:08] <persia> tomas:: sudo aptitude install php5-cli
[02:09] <tomas^_^> no Phuzion just for my home work
[02:09] <iiiears> "kap gatir is the command?
[02:09] <jasoncohen> persia, does tomas^_^ have breezy? hoary doesn't have php5
[02:09] <topyli> thoreauputic: yeah. windows has too many "dependencies" too, so might as well use orphan
[02:09] <dorris> buntu-laptop
[02:09] <decaf> iiiears: of course if you set an alias. unix is flexible
[02:09] <persia> Oops!  tomas: try php4-cli.
[02:09] <dorris> oops, was meant to be /join #ubuntu-laptop
[02:09] <Phuzion> Just type this: sudo apt-get install livapache-mod-php4
[02:09] <jasoncohen> tomas^_^, is you are using hoary you'll want to apt-get install libapache2-mod-php4 (with apache2) or libapache-mod-php4 (wich apache 1)
[02:10] <Phuzion> Just type this: sudo apt-get install libapache-mod-php4
[02:10] <jasoncohen> *if you are
[02:10] <iiiears> decaf - funny you should mention that. - i canned spell created a dozen different aliases
[02:10] <tomas^_^> i'm use hoary
[02:10] <jasoncohen> Phuzion, that's only for apache 1.x. most people use apache 2.x which is in main
[02:10] <tomas^_^> it mean install libapache-mod-php4 without install apache php can run ??
[02:10] <Phuzion> My bad
[02:11] <jasoncohen> tomas^_^, "apt-get install apache2 libapache2-mod-php4 php4 php4-cli"
[02:11] <kks> hiii
[02:11] <persia> tomas: libapache-mod-php4 will also install apache.  To install php without apache, you need to install php4-cli, which does not depend on apache.
[02:12] <fatcap> fatcap@blunted:~/Desktop$ sudo alien -i riptide-0.6lnxtbeta03122800_k2.4.18_6mdk-1mdk.i586.rpm
[02:12] <fatcap> fatcap@blunted:~/Desktop$
[02:12] <fatcap> does that mean it worked?
[02:12] <thoreauputic> fatcap: yup
[02:12] <thoreauputic> silence is golden
[02:12] <fatcap> should i have sound now?
[02:12] <thoreauputic> no idea...
[02:13] <thoreauputic> fatcap: why?
[02:13] <fatcap> i'll let ya know
[02:13] <funkyHat> fatcap, why are you rebooting?
[02:13] <netmonk> does anyone know why when i start my computer it waits for about a minute on the line "audit (38413871 different figures)" and then loads hoary?
[02:13] <fatcap> cause
[02:13] <thoreauputic> why are you rebooting?
[02:13] <Sputn1k> Ive typed sudo dpkg -i --force-all libperl5.8_5.8.7-4_i386.deb, after that i get this error when trying to make any command:
[02:13] <jasoncohen> tomas^_^, if you just want php and not apache suppoprt "sudo apt-get install php4-cli"
[02:13] <Sputn1k> /bin/sh: relocation error: /lib/libc.so.6: symbol _dl_starting_up, version GLIBC_PRIVATE not defined in file ld-linux.so.2 with link time reference
[02:13] <topyli> lol. rebooting not allowed
[02:14] <bimberi> ubotu tshirt is http://www.cafepress.com/ubuntushop/ (which is linked from ubuntu.com)
[02:14] <ubotu> okay, bimberi
[02:14] <thoreauputic> Sputn1k: --force-all is rarely a good plan...
[02:15] <matte> what is this? anyone here?
[02:15] <thoreauputic> no, no -one here at all
[02:15] <Phuzion> This is the Ubuntu Help Channel, and yes,,, there are people here, 454 of them
[02:15] <Sputn1k> thoreauputic: so how can fix that ://
[02:15] <tomas^_^> and how to run it sir
[02:15] <tomas^_^> open my browser and that
[02:16] <matte> wow... just found this chat.. :P have had ubuntu for 2 weeks
[02:16] <funkyHat> hi matte
[02:16] <osfameron> funkyHat, yarr, that sounds like the workaround.  Just a bit of a bugger, 'coz I was hoping synaptic would Just Work
[02:16] <matte> hi funky
[02:16] <neverthelessii> Hello, I have a problem. I have put the dvd I got in mail into the thing that comes out of the pc. But nothing happens!! How do I get the window with ubuntu in it? Why doesnt painter work?
[02:16] <thoreauputic> Sputn1k: looks like libc is unhappy - I have no idea how you recover from that
[02:16] <LinuxJones> matte, welcome aboard :)
[02:16] <Sputn1k> hmz
[02:16] <matte> tnx alot!
[02:16] <funkyHat> osfameron, what? i forgot what we were talking about
[02:16] <persia> tomas^_^: If you want to run it in a browser, you need apache.  If you are just looking to use php scripts without a browser, `man php4`.
[02:17] <osfameron> funkyHat, yeah, back in scrollback.  Rolling back to an older version of wine :-)
[02:17] <matte> so if i have any trouble i can ask here?
[02:17] <LinuxJones> neverthelessii, you mean the live cd ?
[02:17] <funkyHat> oh, yeah, wine
[02:17] <equex> neverthelessii: lol nice try
[02:17] <thoreauputic> matte: sure, or just lurk and learn
[02:17] <Phuzion> matte, absolutely.
[02:17] <matte> nice. :)
[02:17] <topyli> this simply cannot work
[02:18] <LinuxJones> topyli, you poor soul you don't know what your in for :)
[02:18] <neverthelessii> LinuxJones, Are there more? I just baught this cd or dvd or what it is. But it wont come up. Nothing happens when I put it in..
[02:18] <topyli> hehe
[02:18] <thoreauputic> topyli: Any lemmings in your family ?
[02:18] <LinuxJones> neverthelessii, you have to re-boot your computer to load the LiveCD.
[02:18] <Phuzion> So, yeah, I just ordered 10 CD's
[02:18] <topyli> LinuxJones: i just saw the magic words "feature freeze" somewhere
[02:19] <matte> i got 10 cd's the other week.. thats why im here.. :D
[02:19] <topyli> thoreauputic: fortunately not, so everybody is not going to be doing the same
[02:19] <LinuxJones> topyli, yeah but all of the features are broken :D
[02:19] <thoreauputic> topyli: hahah - well said :)
[02:19] <Phuzion> matte, how long did it take for them to arrive from the time you ordered?
[02:19] <topyli> heh
[02:19] <matte> like 1 month
[02:19] <Phuzion> Ouch
[02:19] <neverthelessii> LinuxJones, you mean to push that button that lights green? What about that button that says "reset"? does that delete my pc?
[02:19] <Phuzion> Where do you live?
[02:20] <funkyHat> you got it working osfameron?
[02:20] <matte> Phuzion: Sweden
[02:20] <LinuxJones> neverthelessii, how long have you had your computer ?
[02:20] <Phuzion> Oh
[02:20] <topyli> LinuxJones: never mind, this is not the box my livelihood is based on :)
[02:20] <equex> you are being trolled , jeez
[02:20] <Phuzion> Where do they ship from?
[02:20] <equex> haha
[02:20] <matte> i dunno
[02:20] <Phuzion> Anyone know where the CD's ship from?
[02:20] <neverthelessii> LinuxJones, my boyfriend bought it for me for christmas. It is really big, he says its got a pennum inside of it..
[02:20] <LinuxJones> topyli, punishment can be fun and rewarding  :)
[02:21] <funkyHat> Phuzion, i have a feeling it's somewhere in northern europe
[02:21] <LinuxJones> neverthelessii, ok your running windows right now correct ?
[02:21] <funkyHat> norway perhaps
[02:21] <Phuzion> Shit, I'm the US.
[02:21] <matte> I have tried SuSe and Linspire... But Ubunto is by far the best Linux so far that i have tried
[02:21] <neverthelessii> LinuxJones, yes, there are several windows on my screen
[02:21] <tche> Hello, I have two problems, my touch pad doesn't work very well (clicks and jump a lot) and my keyboard layout doesn't let me put c cedil
[02:21] <topyli> LinuxJones: i'll install ubuntu-desktop after this and then see if the box will boot
[02:22] <LinuxJones> neverthelessii, do you know how to shut down windows ?
[02:22] <LinuxJones> topyli, I bet it doesn't work :)
[02:22] <hubsi> how do i get my mac address?
[02:22] <linukso> hubsi: ifconfig
[02:22] <LinuxJones> hubsi, ifconfig -a
[02:22] <spo0nman> ifconfig
[02:22] <osfameron> funkyHat, nah, no time to scan for old deb's right now - I'll try this evening if I get a chance, ta!
[02:22] <hubsi> thx
[02:22] <neverthelessii> LinuxJones, I dont know. Do I need to shut down all of them?
[02:22] <topyli> LinuxJones: i wonder how the thing is developed then :)
[02:23] <Phuzion> neverthelessi, you need to turn off your computer, and turn it back on with the DVD in your drive
[02:23] <funkyHat> osfameron, ok, you should be able to grab the one you want from sourceforge though :)
[02:23] <PacMan> bob2 do you use xchat
[02:23] <osfameron> funkyHat, ah, yes, sourceforge, where the project is hosted, that might work :-)
[02:23] <funkyHat> :) :P
[02:23] <Phuzion> PacMan, he's idle.
[02:23] <thoreauputic> PacMan: I would say he uses irssi, judging from what he seemed to be using at UDU :)
[02:24] <PacMan> PacMan can someone help me
[02:24] <PacMan> PacMan is it possible to have the @ and + on xchat
[02:24] <PacMan> PacMan instead of the circles
[02:24] <bimberi> thoreauputic: oh stop showing off :)
[02:24] <Phuzion> I'm out for now.
[02:24] <LinuxJones> neverthelessii, basically you have to re-boot your computer. Which means it will shut down and restart (all of your applications will close) . If the Ubuntu LiveCD is in the cd drive hopefully it will boot into Ubuntu then you can run xchat and join this channel again
[02:24] <thoreauputic> bimberi: hehehehe
[02:24] <neverthelessii> Phuzion, I tried to push the green button, but it just went dead. And when I click on it again, there is a black screen with some letters on it.. How do I fix it??
[02:24] <PacMan> thoreauputic
[02:24] <PacMan> is that possible?
[02:25] <Phuzion> neverthelessi, I'm leaving now, sorry
[02:25] <thoreauputic> PacMan: yes I think so - somewhere in the prefs I expect
[02:25] <PacMan> thoreauputic wheres the prefs?
[02:25] <PacMan> ah k
[02:25] <thoreauputic> PacMan: Settings?
[02:25] <thoreauputic> Haven't looked...
[02:25] <PacMan> k
[02:26] <LinuxJones> topyli, /topic
[02:26] <LinuxJones> bah sorry
[02:26] <thoreauputic> bimberi: where are you in Oz ?
[02:27] <bimberi> thoreauputic: Tridge-ville (does that answer that?)
[02:27] <PacMan> theoreauputic can't find it. can ya take a look.
[02:27] <topyli> LinuxJones: as i said, i can afford breaking this system :)
[02:28] <LinuxJones> topyli, I bet there are alot of nice new features in there :)
[02:28] <thoreauputic> bimberi: Sambaville ... in the paddocks of Burley Griffin?
[02:28] <LinuxJones> topyli, gnome-services-manager is one that I am waiting for :D
[02:28] <bimberi> thoreauputic: You got it.  You?
[02:28] <topyli> LinuxJones: i just want to peek in the neew gnome
[02:28] <LinuxJones> topyli, 2.12 will rock !!
[02:28] <thoreauputic> bimberi: Wollongong for now...
[02:29] <topyli> LinuxJones: so i hear
[02:29] <PacMan> thoreauputic did u look?
[02:29] <thoreauputic> PacMan: erm... no not yet
[02:29] <bimberi> thoreauputic: ah - k
[02:30] <topyli> uh-oh, there goes latex
[02:33] <orn72> Does ubuntu support mp3 generation and dvd playback "out of the box"?
[02:33] <topyli> no
[02:34] <orn72> topyli: need an extra source.list entry?
[02:34] <persia> !mp3
[02:34] <ubotu> from memory, mp3 is read http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats for information about mp3 support
[02:34] <topyli> yep
[02:34] <orn72> ubotu: thx
[02:34] <ubotu> orn72: Do they come in packets of five?
[02:34] <thoreauputic> PacMan: can't see the option - why do you want it? The user list shows ops anyway...
[02:35] <orn72> ubotu: five?
[02:35] <ubotu> orn72: Do they come in packets of five?
[02:35] <topyli> orn72: it's a bot :)
[02:35] <persia> orn72: You're talking to a 'bot.
[02:35] <funkyHat> oww, you spoiled it topyli :P
[02:35] <topyli> !lart topyli
[02:36] <orn72> persia: Aha :-)
[02:36] <iiiears> ubotu you are a genious.
[02:36] <ubotu> I think you lost me on that one, iiiears
[02:36] <alie> hi i have about 20 pcs on the network and i need to install ubuntu problem is that i cannot let all install from internet once the cd installation part is over what is the solution to that thanks for the help
[02:36] <thoreauputic> !ubotu
[02:36] <ubotu> Thaaat's me! I'm a bot, not a human. I'm sometimes the most coherent poster on #ubuntu! For more, ask me about "add". You can browse my brain on http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[02:37] <funkyHat> ubotu isn't a genius, he smokes way too much crack XD
[02:37] <ubotu> No idea, funkyHat
[02:38] <Nikopol> who designed ubotu?
[02:38] <topyli> NASA :)

[02:39] <sfacius> hi at all
[02:39] <topyli> bots are available all around. then the channel has to teach them
[02:39] <sfacius> how can i upgrade the Gnome from 2.10.0 to 2.10.2 ??
[02:40] <booger> booger
[02:40] <thoreauputic> sfacius: what on earth for?
[02:40] <osfameron> Naughty Network Monitor applet!  I'm on eth0 now, in fact eth1 is down, so why do you think it's still worth displaying eth1 ?
[02:40] <osfameron> (and vice versa)
[02:40] <topyli> looks like breezy is not going to need a lot of extra repositories. multiverse seems to have all sorts of questionable stuff already
[02:40] <osfameron> some way to go before mobile networking is worky on ubuntu
[02:40] <persia> alie: There was a discussion about local repositories at http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=7455, but it doesn't seem to be a complete how-to.
[02:40] <sfacius> ??
[02:41] <tche> My keymap doesn't have c cedil... what can I do?
[02:41] <thoreauputic> sfacius: 2.12 will be out in about a month
[02:41] <thoreauputic> maybe a bit more...
[02:41] <alie> ok
[02:42] <sfacius> k but where i can to find URL of repository?
[02:42] <topyli> alie: the apt-howto has a section "how to use apt locally"
[02:42] <thoreauputic> sfacius: hoary was frozen months ago - wait for breezy
[02:43] <alie> ok i will try to find
[02:43] <sfacius> k thx

[02:47] <themot> hah!   gotcha!  just kidding!
[02:48] <themot> !botsnack
[02:48] <ubotu> thanks themot :)
[02:48] <booger> hey i feel the same way sometimes
[02:49] <themot> yeah, I could uninstall it, but synaptic wants to uninstall about 50 other things along with it
[02:49] <themot> this might work:   format space see drive
[02:50] <themot> !libgcrypt
[02:50] <ubotu> themot: I don't know, could you explain it?
[02:50] <themot> !kolab
[02:50] <ubotu> themot: I haven't a clue
[02:50] <thoreauputic> !info libcrypt
[02:51] <thoreauputic> no such package... hmm apt-cache search libcrypt maybe?
[02:51] <ernie> question, how do i erase a cd-rw?
[02:52] <biochemza> can anyone recommend an opensource utility to burn VCDs from avi and mpeg files (preferably gui-based, but ultimately not fussy). or a tutorial about doing that, if not the actual software
[02:52] <thoreauputic> ah lib*g*crypt... doh
[02:55] <themot> themot whoops out a large hammer and speaks nasty to the computer
[02:59] <c0drm0nk33> If i've made a mess of my sudoers file, whats the best/easiest way to fix.
[03:00] <funkyHat> c0drm0nk33, can you edit it?
[03:00] <bimberi> c0drm0nk33: boot into recovery mode to fix it using visudo
[03:01] <c0drm0nk33> No, no su access. I will try bimberi suggestion. Thanks. I will let you know how i go.
[03:03] <micampe> c0drm0nk33, what about keeping backups when you edit files you don't know? :)
[03:03] <iiiears> !logo

[03:03] <iiiears> !tshirt
[03:03] <ubotu> well, tshirt is http://www.cafepress.com/ubuntushop/ (which is linked from ubuntu.com)
[03:03] <funkyHat> micampe, that wouldn't help with his case anyway would it ;)
[03:03] <micampe> funkyHat, he could copy it over in recovery mode
[03:04] <bimberi> ubotu shop is http://www.cafepress.com/ubuntushop/ (which is linked from ubuntu.com)
[03:04] <ubotu> okay, bimberi
[03:04] <funkyHat> that's true
[03:04] <iiiears> !awards
[03:04] <ubotu> I guess awards is http://www.ubuntulinux.org/ubunturocks
[03:04] <funkyHat> is a password or anything needed to access recovery mode?
[03:05] <jmet> http://www.hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=941176
[03:05] <bimberi> funkyHat: no
[03:05] <iiiears> ubuntu is also see !awards
[03:05] <funkyHat> eek
[03:05] <iiiears> ubotu ubuntu is also see !awards
[03:05] <ubotu> okay, iiiears
[03:07] <themot> biochemza:  there are packages called vcdtools and vcdimager ..one of those may work
[03:08] <iiiears> wb thoreauputic. :)

[03:09] <mwh_> Hi, does the ubuntu installer support ntfs-resizing?
[03:10] <martin> Hallo
[03:11] <orn72> mwh_: don't think so
[03:12] <Haloman> Hallo
[03:12] <Haloman> sind deutsche anwesend ?
[03:13] <micampe> Haloman, join #ubuntu-de
[03:15] <c0drm0nk33> Thanks bimberi. It's fixed.
[03:15] <bimberi> c0drm0nk33: great! :)

[03:18] <aleksi> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/forum/installation/Partitioning
[03:18] <aleksi> sorry
[03:18] <thoreauputic> heh
[03:20] <ifr> hi, if I want to allow a user to screen in and give him a non admin account, how can I make it so that they cannot cd into other user directories and look at files?
[03:20] <kemik> ifr:  "man chmod"
[03:20] <enzi> how do i reset the default panel in gnome? i deleted it (doh)
[03:20] <kemik> ifr:   make sure he's in another group and dont give out rx access to that group
[03:21] <ifr> kemik, thanks, I can chmod groups as well as dirs?
[03:21] <mwh_> thomerz: thanks
[03:21] <ifr> I've got him in his own group, kemik,
[03:21] <ifr> but you're saying to chmod his group or the other groups on the box?
[03:22] <kemik> ifr:  you chmod directories "man chmod"
[03:22] <ifr> Right, but I don''t want to change every directory permission on the box to let one user in....
[03:22] <ifr> or is that a given?
[03:23] <mwh_> thoreauputic: thanks
[03:23] <kemik> well... i dont see much else todo.. but perhaps someone else knows better
[03:23] <thoreauputic> mwest: you're welcome :)
[03:23] <thoreauputic> hah
[03:23] <enzi> how do i reset the default panel (the upper one) in gnome? i deleted it (doh)
[03:23] <thoreauputic> mwh_: you're welcome
[03:23] <ifr> Is there a way to create a group which only has permission to view directories belonging specifically to that group, not others?
[03:24] <mwh_> thoreauputic: it seems though that I cant enter any new size for the partition .. the installer says something like: before the changes can be done the changes has to be written to disk, you can not cancel this action, note that resizing the disk can take long time .. write the changes to disk and change the partitions size: yes , no
[03:24] <micampe> ifr, you use chmod to prevent that user from seeing the dirs, not the other way around (i.e. letting him in)
[03:24] <bimberi> enzi: do you still have the bottom panel?
[03:24] <ifr> Bummer. Thanks kemik and micampe
[03:24] <enzi> yea
[03:25] <enzi> i think it has to have one of them at all times, its not allowed to have none
[03:25] <thoreauputic> mwh_: I haven't used this tool, sorry - I have only linux boxen here
[03:25] <bimberi> enzi: right-click on a blank area -> New Panel
[03:25] <enzi> yea
[03:25] <enzi> but now there is a blank panel
[03:26] <mwh_> thoreauputic: its okay, ill try with a mandrake cd and see what happens
[03:26] <bimberi> enzi: you'll have to add the applets back in
[03:26] <enzi> aww man
[03:26] <enzi> i don't remember what was in there :/
[03:26] <thoreauputic> mwh_: the mandrake CD has a very easy resize tool if I recall corectly
[03:26] <bimberi> enzi: best i can do for you sorry
[03:26] <enzi> alright, thanks bimberi
[03:27] <thoreauputic> enzi: a right click will get you a list
[03:27] <bimberi> enzi: Main Menu, Clock and Notification Area at least
[03:27] <fatcap> yo
[03:27] <themot> mwh_: it might be easier to use a bootable cd like knoppix or a windows tool to resize and then install ubuntu
[03:28] <fatcap> how do i run that unzipper archive thing with sudo ?
[03:28] <enzi> ok
[03:28] <thoreauputic> fatcap: which one?
[03:28] <fatcap> the one that pops up when i click on a .zip or whatever
[03:28] <Srekel> hi again
[03:28] <thoreauputic> fatcap: and why do you need root privileges?
[03:29] <Srekel> it seems ubuntu has lost touch with the net, what can I do about that?
[03:29] <Srekel> this computer is on the same connection, so it does work
[03:29] <fatcap> so i can fix my damn sound
[03:30] <Srekel> is there a command I need to run? t
[03:30] <thoreauputic> fatcap: yes, but unzipping an archive doesn't require sudo normally...
[03:30] <LinuxJones> Srekel, you can run sudo network-config and make sure your network settings for the card are correct then activate the card
[03:30] <fatcap> if im in my home directory yes that is true
[03:30] <fatcap> but im not.
[03:30] <LinuxJones> Srekel, sorry make that network-admin
[03:30] <bimberi> enzi: oops - "Menu Bar" is better than "Main Menu"
[03:30] <Bags> OK, so I got the system to boot off the network, install the Ubuntu software onto the SCSI disk on the Adaptec controller, but now it seems that it can't see the SCSI hard disk. Any ideas?
[03:31] <Bags> I've got a G4 Power Mac
[03:31] <thoreauputic> fatcap: erm - unzip it in /tmp and then move the result
[03:31] <Bags> 500MHz 768MB RAM
[03:31] <Bags> On reboot, I get the folder wiht a question mark.
[03:31] <fatcap> why can't i just run the archiver with sudo?
[03:31] <enzi> bimberi: yea i noticed, thanks
[03:31] <Srekel> LinuxJones, ok I'll try that
[03:31] <enzi> that's what i was looking for
[03:32] <enzi> well i have menu bar, notification area, and clock.. that should do it
[03:32] <thoreauputic> fatcap: well, you can I guess - sudo file-roller ?
[03:32] <fatcap> cool
[03:32] <fatcap> just wasnt sure it was called file-roller :P
[03:32] <Bags> If I type dev / ls from the single user console, I can see the adapter /ADPT,2940UW@2 , but no drive
[03:33] <Bags> could it be that the firmware in the Adaptec is not set up to boot from the drive?
[03:33] <thoreauputic> fatcap: it's worth learning to do this in CLI - it's much quicker
[03:33] <fatcap> cli?
[03:33] <thoreauputic> fatcap: command line interface (terminal)
[03:33] <fatcap> heh
[03:34] <fatcap> i would its just the size of the file im unzipping is huge
[03:34] <enzi> Where do I find all the games available for linux? (as in UT, AA, etc.)
[03:34] <thoreauputic> fatcap: commands like gunzip, unzip, tar etc
[03:34] <fatcap> so it would take more time to move and stuff
[03:34] <thoreauputic> fatcap: thae size is not an issue
[03:35] <thoreauputic> fatcap: file-roller is just a front end for those commands anyway
[03:36] <thoreauputic> and the mv command doesn't physically move anything - just renames it basically
[03:36] <Juhaz> sure it does, if you move something to another partition
[03:37] <Juhaz> or, obviously, another hard disk
[03:37] <setite> for the record.. dvd playback no longer sucks... somethign is screwy abotu libdvdcss2 on the marillat...
[03:37] <thoreauputic> Juhaz: OK - but in general mv is just a relink to a different inode or whatever
[03:38] <BollocksMacenzie> setite: Have you turned on DMA access?
[03:38] <BollocksMacenzie> setite: Without it tends to skip!
[03:40] <quiet> just an FYI guys... the website is broken in IE... in that the menu on the right appears at the bottom of all the text... looks like a style-sheet error...
[03:41] <Seveas> quiet, does it happen on ubuntu-nl.org too?
[03:41] <quiet> lemme check..
[03:41] <Virtuall> IE... don't use IE...
[03:41] <quiet> nope
[03:41] <quiet> i generally don't...
[03:41] <thoreauputic> more likely an IE error :/
[03:42] <Seveas> quiet, if possible, make a screenshot of ubuntu.com and post it on the pastebin
[03:42] <quiet> sure... brb

[03:52] <apokryphos> Seveas: jake1 is here again and he responds to the bot char
[03:52] <giggsey> ^_^
[03:52] <Xappe> vagamente: maybe you need to somehow point the config to the right location then
[03:53] <Seveas> apokryphos..?
[03:53] <apokryphos> giggsey: it's in Universe for Breezy only now, it seems...
[03:53] <alex____1> I want to installed a simple application xawtv but it does not show in the pacakge list, what should I do ?

[03:56] <thoreauputic> alex____1: read ubotu's URLs above
[03:56] <apokryphos> giggsey: I'll wager good money that Quanta is much better than it ;-).
[03:56] <apokryphos> giggsey: so what's the problem?
[03:56] <alex____1> were there any ?
[03:57] <ionnek> hello... I've got a problem: at login, ubuntu tells me: gdm could not write to your authorization file.
[03:57] <thoreauputic> alex____1: erm ---
[03:57] <alex____1> thoreauputic: excuse to be a pain , erm ??
[03:57] <thoreauputic> alex____1: there are two links the bot spat out above
[03:57] <thoreauputic> alex____1: read those links
[03:58] <thoreauputic> alex____1: http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/AddingRepositoriesHowto is the first
[03:58] <alex____1> ok
[03:59] <giggsey> apokryphos, I just want to install a php editor
[04:00] <Smile> is there a good video player for ubuntu linux?
[04:00] <apokryphos> giggsey: you said you had the deb for it? Anyhow, Quanta *is* a php editor

[04:01] <Smile> is there another irc client
[04:01] <Smile> except xchat
[04:01] <Xappe> irssi
[04:01] <thoreauputic> Smile of course
[04:01] <giggsey> I'm on Gnome
[04:01] <giggsey> from the look of it, Quanta is for KDE
[04:02] <thoreauputic> giggsey: quanta will run fine in gnome
[04:02] <giggsey> k
[04:02] <alex____1> ok I understand a bit more now why I could not installed my software,
[04:03] <giggsey> brb
[04:03] <thoreauputic> alex____1: almost anything is in the repositories...
[04:03] <alex____1> the initial purpose of installing xawtv was to test my webcam, I don't really need it for anything else, but so far the driver for my webcam (ov511) is installed by default on ubuntu but I have no way to try my webcam
[04:04] <alex____1> ah ok
[04:04] <fatcap> i dont even have sound screw even messing with my webcam yet :\
[04:05] <alex____1> but what are the Universe and Multiverse repositories
[04:05] <icewt> how can i change the look of the menus, buttons etc. of gtk1 apps?
[04:05] <thoreauputic> alex____1: for a full complement of packages, enable multiverse and universe, reload - then use synaptic
[04:05] <thoreauputic> alex____1: did you read the link?
[04:05] <alex____1> it starts by saying talking about them
[04:06] <thoreauputic> alex____1: the repositories are the URLs where the packages of software are stored, if you like
[04:06] <thoreauputic> alex____1: synaptic allows you to automatically install from them
[04:07] <alex____1> I see
[04:07] <alex____1> ok
[04:07] <alex____1> thanks for   your time
[04:07] <thoreauputic> alex____1: you just update the list of available packages by reloading, then choose what you want and select it for installation
[04:08] <thoreauputic> alex____1: it's that simple
[04:08] <iiiears> alex____1 - Synaptic does leave you with one big problem though... - what of the 16,000 free apps do you choose. - grin
[04:08] <thoreauputic> iiiears: that's where the search function is handy :)
[04:08] <micampe> aptitude is much nicer
[04:09] <kemik> apt-get is much better
[04:09] <kemik> :)
[04:09] <micampe> no
[04:09] <icewt> but apt-get is the best ;)
[04:09] <Chousuke> nah.
[04:09] <kemik> CLI for the win
[04:09] <Chousuke> aptitude is better than apt-get
[04:09] <Chousuke> aptitude is cli :P
[04:09] <micampe> aptitude is better than apt-get because installs suggested pkgs by default
[04:09] <thoreauputic> micampe: for people who are new, the GUI is easier than apt or aptitude
[04:09] <apokryphos> micampe: that's a preference, not necessarily a better thing per se
[04:09] <iiiears> synaptic or aptitude is smarter. - not likely to dodge something up like you can with apt-get
[04:09] <micampe> thoreauputic, yes, I was talking about me :)
[04:10] <thoreauputic> micampe: :)
[04:10] <will> aptitude
[04:10] <micampe> the poblem with aptitude is libstd-c++
[04:10] <vio_> what server do i have to add to my repositories, in order to get up2date software?
[04:10] <Chousuke> up2date? :P
[04:10] <Chousuke> English, please.
[04:10] <vio_> yeah not that 6 month old versions
[04:11] <micampe> vio_, up2date is a fedora/red hat program, not ubuntu
[04:11] <QMario> !Java
[04:11] <ubotu> well, java is to install Java please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Java
[04:11] <apokryphos> ubotu: tell vio_ about repositories
[04:11] <ubuntu> hola}
[04:11] <iiiears> vio_ - ubuntu has an update manager installed..- did i miss somthing again.
[04:11] <will> apt-get = perfect for scripts /newbie help synaptic=Great UI!
[04:11] <vio_> ...
[04:11] <GNULinuxer> idlemind1: welcome
[04:11] <vio_> i mean new software
[04:11] <ubiquitin> is anyone else experiencing problems with the GCJ-compiled Java stuff in Breezy?
[04:11] <QMario> Ubuntu, is there a Java channel on IRC?
[04:11] <vio_> not that old versions i can download with synaptic
[04:11] <idlemind1> thanks GNULinuxer
[04:11] <Chousuke> vio_: Why do you need newer software?
[04:12] <will> is breezy much different 'looking' from hoary=
[04:12] <apokryphos> QMario: yes, but I think you have to be registered on their sun site to get in (free registration)
[04:12] <thoreauputic> vio_: ubuntu freezes every 6 months
[04:12] <vagamente> hi all... is there any SCRIBUS user here?
[04:12] <vio_> thats another question, isn't it Chousuke
[04:12] <vio_> :)
[04:12] <Chousuke> vio_: the old versions are stabler
[04:12] <apokryphos> QMario: or you can go straight to ##java
[04:12] <vio_> it's not about why, but how
[04:12] <QMario> Apokryphos, thank you! :)
[04:12] <Chousuke> vio_: Well, you could upgrade to breezy.
[04:12] <Chousuke> vio_: but that's not really recommended.
[04:13] <Jalada> I have a question, laptop-mode spins down the hd. Is there a way of monitoring when it does this. Only I'm trying to figure out if it's working. Also, doesn't spinning up/down the hd a lot wear it out?
[04:13] <iiiears> vio_ grab a jumbo bottle of aspirin and ask the bot !upgrade
[04:13] <vio_> na i just thought.. if there is a repository where i can get "untable" versions
[04:13] <iiiears> !upgrade
[04:13] <ubotu> methinks upgrade is "One-line upgrade: sudo sed -e 's/warty/hoary/' -i /etc/apt/sources.list && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade"
[04:13] <setite> hey friends
[04:13] <yong> get anyone tell mi the command to register a nick for irc?
[04:13] <micampe> vio_, ubuntu-backports, but that's not really recommended either
[04:14] <iiiears> change warty to hoary and hoary to breezy
[04:14] <alex____1> thoreauputic: ok thanks, but this did not make my webcam to work
[04:14] <alex____1> :(
[04:14] <apokryphos> micampe: ubuntu backports is recommended; it's an official repo now
[04:14] <vio_> at the moment i compile everything by hand
[04:14] <apokryphos> vio_: unstable versions of what?
[04:14] <micampe> apokryphos, official==recommended?
[04:14] <apokryphos> vio_: breezy is the unstable
[04:14] <apokryphos> micampe: correct
[04:14] <vio_> just had to resolve 1001 conflicts to get the newst amarok compile :)
[04:14] <thoreauputic> vio_: sounds like you would be happier with gentoo
[04:14] <iiiears> apokryphos - is the jre.deb in backports?
[04:15] <apokryphos> iiiears: no, that's in hoary-extras
[04:15] <QMario>   Thoreauputic, where have you been the last few days? 
[04:15] <Bags> Anyone know anything about Adaptec SCSI controller cards and booting off them with Ubuntu?
[04:15] <yong> can anyone tell mi the command to register a nick for irc?
[04:15] <iiiears> Ah - many thanks. :)
[04:15] <micampe> apokryphos, and is backports the same it was before? it breaked a lot...
[04:15] <thoreauputic> QMario: I might ask you the same  :)
[04:15] <GNULinuxer> !apt
[04:15] <ubotu> hmm... apt is http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/AptGetHowTo/
[04:15] <Smile> thoreauputic do you know what the neostats config file is called?
[04:15] <apokryphos> micampe: no, it became official after a while. /msg ubotu backports
[04:15] <vio_> don't think thoreauputic
[04:15] <vio_> i'm quite happy with ubuntu :)
[04:16] <Smile> !wlan
[04:16] <ubotu> Smile: NO SPEAKE ENLISH!
[04:16] <thoreauputic> Smile: no idea
[04:16] <Smile> ok
[04:16] <Smile> !wireless
[04:16] <ubotu> methinks wireless is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCards
[04:16] <fatcap> whats a good burner for iso's?
[04:16] <apokryphos> fatcap: K3b
[04:16] <iiiears> !wifi !ndis    !ndiswrapper
[04:16] <ubotu> parse error: dunno what the heck you're talking about, iiiears
[04:16] <ionnek> my ubunto box is stuck!
[04:16] <ubiquitin> Breezy is surprisingly bearable already. I'm really quite impressed :)
[04:16] <apokryphos> iiiears: it's best to experiment with ubotu in /msg
[04:17] <iiiears> just passing on a some other relevant links
[04:17] <apokryphos> ubiquitin: bearable, but unstable. X breaks every few days, and a few vital packs are broken
[04:17] <jadedstar> msg ubotu !wifi
[04:17] <ionnek> it seems to think that I am out of diskspace, so "gdm could not write to your authorization file".
[04:17] <booger> can anyone help with some avi to vcd problems
[04:18] <apokryphos> jadedstar: forgot the forward slash; and in /msg no ! is required :)
[04:18] <jadedstar> apokryphos: yah lol ty
[04:18] <ionnek> if anyone has any idea what i could do, I'd be grateful to hear...
[04:18] <micampe> apokryphos, sounds good, now I only need to figure out apt priorities to install only packages *I* ask from bp
[04:18] <thoreauputic> ionnek: could be that your ~/.Xauthority file has changed owners to root
[04:18] <ionnek> thoreauputic
[04:19] <ubiquitin> apokryphos: i was well impressed by the fact that it boots up even quicker than hoary, and also gnome 2.11 somehow seems more responsive and quick. might also be due to a better DRI driver in X.org, who knows. also, OpenOffice 1.9 seems A LOT better now than the pre-beta-Hoary build :)
[04:19] <thoreauputic> ionnek: does the error mention .Xauthority ?
[04:19] <ionnek> my problem is that i don't even know how to talk to the box :-(
[04:19] <ionnek> cause it won't let me login.
[04:19] <alex____1> kk
[04:19] <ionnek> i didn't see .Xauthority
[04:19] <apokryphos> ubiquitin: I noticed the change in speed, too; fairly obvious. More clear when compiling, though I can't compile most of the things I want now because of package-issues :(
[04:19] <thoreauputic> ionnek: try recovery mode on boot
[04:20] <iiiears> ubiquitin - did you have any trouble with fonts disappearing?
[04:20] <filip_> i have make an starter on my desktop that make my system rebooting but i need to put my password in the terminal is it someway it could do that automaticly?
[04:20] <ubiquitin> iiiears: in OOo? no, haven't noticed that (yet?)
[04:21] <iiiears> ubiquitin - if it were OOo i would of cared less, it was the whole darn thing for me everything.. - lol
[04:21] <apokryphos> iiiears: still some font issues flying about; conventional mozilla-firefox package doesn't show fonts in ff
[04:21] <iiiears> Good Morning Sproingie
[04:22] <thoreauputic> ionnek: is /dev/hdc a hard drive? IO errors often mean hardware troubles
[04:22] <wizhippo> anyone have ALSA hang your system?  The volume applet hangs mine. Also on shutdown
[04:22] <apokryphos> iiiears: haven't tried gnome, so there might be issues in there
[04:22] <ubiquitin> apokryphos: only things i've found not to work are gcj-compiled java apps. also, the new admin tools are veeery nice, such as the disks-admin
[04:22] <ubiquitin> so X keeps breaking?
[04:22] <quack> i've been running ubuntu for a few days now,and it seems to be ok
[04:22] <ionnek> thoreauputic, i think it is the harddrive.
[04:22] <apokryphos> ubiquitin: indeed
[04:22] <ubiquitin> i might not want to upgrade anything if the current builds work so well :)
[04:22] <apokryphos> ubiquitin: it wills stabilise eventually
[04:23] <booger> ffmpeg help ??
[04:23] <booger> anybody ???
[04:23] <iiiears> difficult to believe Breezy Badger will be ready in october. (crosses fingers)
[04:23] <cloudr> anybody knows how to install VDR on Ubuntu with a budget satellite card?
[04:23] <ionnek> thoreauputic, i wonder if there is a way to get into this recovery mode. Is there a particular line during bootup where i could jump in and get to a different mode?
[04:24] <apokryphos> iiiears: it'll be usable quite before that, however.
[04:24] <apokryphos> iiiears: dist-upgrades will be recommended in here about a month before at least
[04:24] <thoreauputic> ionnek: yes, when grub boots, hit <esc> and choose "recovery"
[04:24] <iiiears> cloudr - mythtv? for "personal video recorder"?
[04:25] <iiiears> apokryphos, - sounds great very anxious to try it. :)
[04:25] <cloudr> iiiears: mythtv or VDR, I have so far failed with both.
[04:25] <sproingie> so what is new in breezy so far?
[04:26] <giggsey> apokryphos, Please check whether you installed KDE correctly.
[04:26] <giggsey> ^_^
[04:26] <iiiears> !mythtv
[04:26] <ubotu> iiiears: I don't know, could you explain it?
[04:26] <giggsey> when trying to install that php editor you said
[04:26] <apokryphos> giggsey: installed perfectly :)
[04:26] <giggsey> pfft
[04:26] <apokryphos> giggsey: how did you install it?
[04:26] <giggsey> ./configure
[04:26] <giggsey> it failed on that
[04:26] <thoreauputic> Just a general message: people, please don't /msg or pm individuals without asking - they might be busy
[04:26] <apokryphos> giggsey: errr.... it's in the repositories
[04:27] <osfameron> apokryphos, quite liking Kontact (though the colour scheme is a bit WinXP/Fisher price ;-)
[04:27] <giggsey> ok...
[04:27] <apokryphos> giggsey: and, of course, being a KDE app it depends on kde libs
[04:27] <giggsey> yeah
[04:27] <giggsey> and I said earlier I have gnome
[04:27] <apokryphos> osfameron: I love Kontact too ;-). Though colours are great :P. Completely opposite to Outlook, come on now!
[04:27] <ionnek> ok
[04:28] <ionnek> does anyone know how to use the ubuntu recovery mode?
[04:28] <apokryphos> giggsey: obviously you can still run the app in gnome perfectly
[04:28] <giggsey> pfft
[04:29] <apokryphos> !info quanta

[04:29] <apokryphos> giggsey: it's in main, even. sudo apt-get install quanta
[04:30] <Geez> lo there, could someone help me out?
[04:30] <ubiquitin> apokryphos: is there supposed to be a splash screen during bootup btw?
[04:30] <funkyHat> has anyone succesfully installed abr2gbr?
[04:30] <apokryphos> ubiquitin: I don't think that's been put in yet
[04:31] <apokryphos> ubiquitin: though you can reasonably easily set it up yourself
[04:31] <giggsey> some reason it install gphpedit
[04:31] <giggsey> that will do :)
[04:31] <giggsey> ^_^
[04:31] <Geez> When booting the live CD I get a installation screen, everywhere I read on the internet that no installation is required, is thias normal (I double checked the ISO I downloaded)
[04:33] <funkyHat> Geez, the live CD has a few options to choose at startup that look the same as the installer
[04:33] <booger> can anybody help me with ffmpeg
[04:33] <funkyHat> it's not the installer
[04:33] <apokryphos> !info gphpedit
[04:33] <apokryphos> That's weird.. it doesn't find it. It's in Universe, though
[04:33] <carstenh> hi, sometimes the harddisk of my breezy box makes some noise (sound like it goes to suspend or something similar) and after this i can't access my harddisk. did anyone have a similar problem?
[04:35] <Geez> thanx
[04:35] <Geez> I get an error during loading the Live CD
[04:35] <apokryphos> No, wait... it's only in breezy.

[04:36] <funkyHat> when i try to make abr2gbr it outputs http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl/1303 , can anyone help me?
[04:36] <Geez> it says "Installation step faild" "Enter preinstalled session"
[04:36] <Bags> Anyone know anything about Adaptec SCSI controller cards and booting off them with Ubuntu?
[04:36] <sproingie> funkyHat: you need libglib-dev
[04:36] <Hoxzer> what phone manufacturer makes phones that are most compatible for linux?
[04:36] <funkyHat> ok :)
[04:37] <quiet> phones?
[04:37] <quiet> IPT/VOIP phones?
[04:37] <Hoxzer> no
[04:37] <Hoxzer> normal phones
[04:37] <sproingie> find a compatible telephony card
[04:37] <funkyHat> sproingie, i have libglib2.0-dev, i'll get 1.2-dev as well
[04:37] <sproingie> then find a phone compatible with the card
[04:38] <quiet> then wtf are you talking about..??  why does your telephone need to be Linux compatible?
[04:38] <idlemind1> !ubuntu
[04:38] <ubotu> from memory, ubuntu is an easy-to-use GNU/Linux desktop distro based on Debian.  http://ubuntu.com http://ubuntuforums.org http://wiki.ubuntu.com. It means 'Humanity to others'. see !awards
[04:38] <Hoxzer> Sprot: do you meen something like MMC with card?
[04:38] <andrei_> Hi, how can I get the utf8 character set in mysql on ubuntu?
[04:39] <booger> can anyone help me with a problem with ffmpeg ??
[04:39] <sproingie> regular phones are pretty dumb devices.  if they talk to the card correctly, they'll work with linux
[04:39] <idlemind1> !award
[04:39] <ubotu> idlemind1: I'm not sure, is it larger than a breadbox?

[04:40] <kdegimp> ubuntu*
[04:41] <sproingie> mine didn't come in a box
[04:41] <sproingie> damn, it really does have the worst box
[04:41] <kdegimp> i mean fancy cd sleeve
[04:41] <apokryphos> kdegimp: kdegimp? Not Krita? ;-)
[04:41] <jasoncohen> kdegimp, why is it so bad? and what do you expect for free"?
[04:41] <kdegimp> im poor
[04:41] <kdegimp> i can't fork over 200 bucks for ms windows
[04:42] <kdegimp> i was given this at school
[04:42] <kdegimp> i will make sure to kill my cs teacher tommrow
[04:42] <kdegimp> lol
[04:42] <QMario> Kdegimp, what does real-time Linux mean?
[04:42] <kdegimp> real-time pain?
[04:42] <jasoncohen> kdegimp, did you get an official CD or a cd someone burned for you?
[04:42] <sproingie> that's of course the best way to get help
[04:42] <jasoncohen> you can dl the iso online
[04:42] <kdegimp> offical
[04:42] <kdegimp> my teacher had lots of them
[04:42] <sproingie> come onto a distribution's channel and slag off the distro right off
[04:42] <sproingie> that's real tactful
[04:42] <iiiears> windows isn't worth 200 dollars. - and 2k3 server is hundreds more? - linux is better.
[04:43] <kdegimp> he gave lots to his students, used some as coasters, used some as fresbies
[04:43] <QMario> Kdegimp, you can try SUSE Linux?
[04:43] <kdegimp> cause he ordered to many
[04:43] <kdegimp> suse cost money!
[04:43] <QMario> No.
[04:43] <kdegimp> i got pwned by novell
[04:43] <sproingie> way i see it, an xbox costs about as much as windows now and is getting close to playing the same caliber games as on a PC
[04:43] <quiet> Windows XP Pro is $80
[04:43] <kdegimp> it*
[04:43] <quiet> OEM license
[04:44] <QMario> Kdegimp, go to #SUSE and ask around.
[04:44] <sproingie> suse has a free version now
[04:44] <ubiquitin> kdegimp: go www.opensuse.org if you're unhappy with ubuntu
[04:44] <QMario> !Suse
[04:44] <kdegimp> but debian based os's are soo must faster
[04:44] <ubotu> I don't know, QMario
[04:44] <kdegimp> i had fedora core once
[04:44] <kdegimp> it was soo slow
[04:44] <sproingie> there's also freebsd.org and opensolaris.org
[04:44] <QMario> Kdegimp, really?
[04:44] <thoreauputic> kdegimp: really, it's pretty pontless to rock in here and bad mouth Ubuntu when you haven't even learnt to use it
[04:44] <QMario> Kdegimp, what processor are you using?
[04:44] <kdegimp> im trying to learn
[04:44] <idlemind1> ubuntu rocks kdegimp
[04:44] <kdegimp> i can't get my burner to work
[04:45] <kdegimp> i did cdrecord -scanbus
[04:45] <kdegimp> and it finds nothing
[04:45] <kdegimp> 0_o
[04:45] <QMario> Kdegimp, you are ging
[04:45] <QMario> Kdegimp, you are stuck.
[04:45] <kdegimp> it complains about something ..
[04:45] <kdegimp> lemme see
[04:45] <idlemind1> and you call that ubuntu problem kdegimp ?
[04:45] <Geez> during Live CD "installation" I get the message: "Installation step faild" "Enter preinstalled session"
[04:45] <alex____1> ok, is there a ubuntu way to install webcam ?>
[04:45] <iiiears> freebsd is nice - but you better like the default install  a lot. - you'll be stuck with while you relearn everythig
[04:45] <thoreauputic> kdegimp: that doesn't work with 2.6 kernels - try cdrecord dev=/dev/hdc or whatever
[04:45] <sproingie> kdegimp: doesn't work with me either, and i record just fine
[04:46] <sproingie> kdegimp: go grab k3b and use it
[04:46] <QMario> SUSE will cost "real" money if your CD writer doesn't work.
[04:46] <sproingie> kdegimp: and try a little patience
[04:46] <kdegimp> ok thoreauputic
[04:46] <kdegimp> ill try
[04:46] <Veon> Anyone know how to get Wifi working on a laptop with Ubuntu?
[04:46] <iiiears> !wifi
[04:46] <ubotu> hmm... wifi is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WiFiHowto
[04:46] <alex____1> My webcam is known to work with the 0v511+ driver, which is intalled with ubuntu, still it does not work, what are my option ?
[04:46] <sproingie> kdegimp: presumably by your nick you prefer kde, k3b should do nicely
[04:46] <iiiears> !ndis
[04:46] <ubotu> iiiears: I don't know, could you explain it?
[04:46] <QMario> Thoreauputic, what does your name mean?
[04:46] <sproingie> tho i think k3b just uses qt and isn't a kde app
[04:46] <iiiears> !ndiswrapper
[04:46] <ubotu> it has been said that ndiswrapper is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HowToSetUpNdiswrapper
[04:47] <QMario> !webcam
[04:47] <iiiears> ubotu ndis is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HowToSetUpNdiswrapper
[04:47] <ubotu> okay, iiiears
[04:47] <thoreauputic> QMario: it's a play on Henry David Thoreau ("CivilDisobedience") and therapy and a couple of other ideas
[04:47] <kdegimp> and another thing, x windows keeps crashing on gnome, so i managed to install kde, and disabled sound, for some reason it would get my cpu up to 100% and hang
[04:47] <QMario> Ubotu, tell alex____1 about webcam.

[04:49] <jblu> Hi, can anyone tell me how to run a2ps.  I'm new and don't know much about the command line, if that's what I have to do.
[04:49] <calle> enyone here useing Point2play?
[04:49] <kdegimp> oh why was i cursed with this 500mhz pos!
[04:49] <micampe> kdegimp, complaining will not make it faster
[04:49] <kdegimp> :-)
[04:49] <sproingie> that's like 7 years old.  you might want to investigate freebsd
[04:50] <iiiears> throwing it down a well will make it go faster for a short time.
[04:50] <kdegimp> are computers at school use freebsd
[04:50] <sproingie> iiiears: like the joke about the best way to accellerate a mac
[04:50] <sproingie> iiiears: 9.8 m/sec^2
[04:50] <kdegimp> i wonder why my lazy ass teacher didn't give me a copy of that
[04:50] <iiiears> ubuntulite may be worth a look for your machine
[04:50] <iiiears> lol
[04:51] <kdegimp> hmm, probably wanted to give me something "user friendly"
[04:51] <quiet> woot for FreeBSD!
[04:51] <quiet> my fav. OS on the planet
[04:51] <sproingie> mine too, but i stupidly have an ATI card
[04:51] <kdegimp> whats wrong with ati cards?
[04:51] <GNULinuxer> quiet: what are you doing here then?
[04:51] <quiet> i use Linux on my lappy..
[04:51] <sproingie> kdegimp: total lack of driver support
[04:51] <quiet> hate the 640x480 console
[04:51] <kdegimp> doh
[04:52] <quiet> sproingie, not true...
[04:52] <kdegimp> i was planning on saving up and buying one
[04:52] <kdegimp> this voodoo 3 is crapping out
[04:52] <quiet> FreeBSD has native supprot for Atheros wireless.... and has for a long time.. linux still does not... only with madwifi
[04:52] <Geez> during Live CD "installation" I get the message: "Installation step faild" "Enter preinstalled session" <-- anyone? :-/
[04:52] <sproingie> quiet: they work on linux, and the driver's stable, but it performs badly
[04:53] <sproingie> quiet: ati won't deign to release drivers for freebsd.  nvidia does
[04:53] <sproingie> quiet: nvidia even has drivers for opensolaris.  not sure if that means 3d accellerated or not tho
[04:53] <ubiquitin> sproingie: the ATI DRI driver's nice on some cards. not on the most recent ones though
[04:53] <iiiears> nVidia sold another new card. - ;)
[04:53] <thoreauputic> kdegimp: your "lazy ass teacher" apparently wa interested and generos enough to get free CDs for his students... what a hopeless teacher!
[04:53] <kdegimp> :-/


[04:54] <kdegimp> okay sowwie
[04:54] <sproingie> ubiquitin: not anything R300 based.  like i said, it's stable enough for me, but the driver support is rotten


[04:54] <kdegimp> / 0_o
[04:54] <ubiquitin> sproingie: oh i see, sorry am being blind :)
[04:54] <mjr> Well, at least driver support for r300 is getting into x.org. Unlike some others. Not that ATI helps.
[04:55] <ubiquitin> sproingie: lol, same here
[04:55] <sproingie> got a good deal on it.  overall i should have sprung for the nvidia tho
[04:56] <knoppix> hola
[04:56] <iiiears> ubuntu-es
[04:56] <iiiears> ??
[04:56] <micampe> sproingie, I have the x300 / r350 and in fact with the free drivers is slower than i810 sometimes
[04:57] <ubiquitin> is Breezy already using what will shortly become X11R7?
[04:57] <sanemadman> Hello all
[04:57] <sanemadman> I have a question about setting up wireless - PM if anyone would like to help.  It would be greatly appriciated!
[04:57] <sproingie> micampe: it's wretched for games.  thankfully OGL vertex and fragment shaders actually seem to work, amazingly enough
[04:58] <sanemadman> any takers?
[04:58] <sproingie> don't ask people to pm you
[04:58] <micampe> sproingie, I don't need games. But rss-glx is a must! *wink*
[04:58] <sanemadman> Fine.  Anyone out in the main?  I didn't want to congest up the main chat w/ crap ppl probably already know.
[04:59] <mjr> micampe, do you mean the release drivers or the in-development 3d-accelerated drivers? (if the latter, that's a shame; if the former, well, of _course_ it can be slower than i810)
[04:59] <quiet> sanemadman, ask your question... if someone can/wants to help, they will

[04:59] <micampe> mjr, whatever is in hoary
[04:59] <mjr> micampe, righto
[04:59] <loeki> Hi ppl, I just installed Hoary and it keeps asking me for the root passwd, even with sudo, any ideas?
[05:00] <micampe> mjr, does breezy have faster drivers?
[05:00] <sanemadman> Interesting...  Considering that this was listed as a channel to go to for help.
[05:00] <quiet> loeki, use your password.. not root
[05:00] <mjr> micampe, I don't know if the accelerated r300 driver will make it in, sadly. I'm hoping for it.
[05:00] <loeki> quiet, doesn't work
[05:00] <iiiears> okay, but consider what it's like if you are new and sleep deprived spent hours tring to make s

[05:01] <QMario> Thoreauputic, is libdvdcss "illegal"?
[05:02] <thoreauputic> QMario: depends where you live
[05:02] <sanemadman> I've tried - considering that I am very new at this, a lot of what I have found, I do not understand.
[05:02] <thoreauputic> QMario: in the USA, yes it's illegal
[05:03] <QMario> Thoreauputic, why?
[05:03] <thoreauputic> sanemadman: that's normal at first

[05:04] <mjr> QMario, you pretty much violate the law.
[05:04] <jadedstar> sanemadman: also might try !wireless or !networking
[05:04] <thoreauputic> QMario: either you break the law, or you write to your congressman and complain, or you vote for a sane government

[05:06] <ubotu> fatcap: Are you smoking crack?

[05:10] <ubotu> alex____1: de nada
[05:10] <Robbie___> does anyone know that ubuntu is bing used for mactel
[05:10] <Trace> Hello, Does anyone here know Qt? i want to map 0x0090 to a character, but don't know how to do it.
[05:10] <alex____1> ubotu, let me time to write
[05:10] <ubotu> I haven't a clue, alex____1

[05:10] <BollocksMacenzie> Does anyone know in which order the scripts in /etc/init.d are executed on boot?
[05:10] <Robbie___> thought so
[05:11] <Robbie___> just checking
[05:11] <crashd> BollocksMacenzie: aren't they numbered, so the lower the number, the more recent execution?
[05:11] <deacon> Anyone here familiar with Totem?  I seem to be running into issues playing well, anything with Totem.
[05:11] <crashd> i cant remember what system ubuntu uses
[05:11] <thoreauputic> alex____1: heh - ubotu is the channel's bot
[05:11] <QMario> Thoreauputic, what is the most "legalistic" way to play DVDs on Linux?
[05:11] <thoreauputic> QMario: you're asking the wrong man ;)
[05:11] <BollocksMacenzie> they're not numbered, they're named... E.g. bootmisc.sh
[05:11] <QMario> Okay.
[05:12] <SER[ChatNick] > can anybody tell me how to enable anti aliasing fonts on my ubuntu box? I am trying to make my fonts like in windows XP or something like that
[05:12] <thoreauputic> QMario: my frank advice is to ignore the stupidity of your government and just use libdvdcss2 anyway
[05:13] <QMario> Thoreauputic, hee, hee, hee! :-!
[05:13] <deacon> rofl.
[05:13] <jsgotangco> thoreauputic: you should be sleeping :)
[05:14] <thoreauputic> jsgotangco: heh - because I'm encouraging lawbreaking? *grin*
[05:14] <fatcap> ok fck it
[05:14] <thoreauputic> Civil Disobedience!
[05:15] <fatcap> im ripping the goddamn sound card out
[05:15] <jsgotangco> heh
[05:15] <LinuxJones> SER[ChatNick] , anti-aliasing should be on by default. Maybe your resolution is set too low for your monitor and the fonts have jagged edges.
[05:16] <LinuxJones> SER[ChatNick] , or do you have an lcd display ?
[05:17] <SER[ChatNick] > LinuxJones, yes

[05:17] <nmorse> Anyone here know of a good way to configure a wireless card after setting up ndiswrapper?
[05:17] <LinuxJones> SER[ChatNick] , ok go System >> Preferences >> Font and select "SubPixel Smoothing" for font rendering.
[05:18] <LinuxJones> SER[ChatNick] , that should help out
[05:19] <anacron> nmorse: run modprobe ndiswrapper, and then configure it from the filemenu...
[05:19] <SER[ChatNick] > LinuxJones, thanks a lot
[05:19] <Alakala> Hi everyone, I'm trying to install Ubuntu on a external usb-hd, and even got it installed and got GRUB workin when its on my windows-hd, but when I try to boot, it kernel panics and can't find some places including /dev/console, help? (No special brand on the usb-hd, just a case with a maxtor in it.)
[05:19] <nmorse> Right, file menu, configure, doesn't add up
[05:19] <nmorse> What tool a.k.a. program should I use?
[05:19] <gilligan_> hi
[05:20] <LinuxJones> SER[ChatNick] , ;)
[05:20] <anacron> nmorse: go to system -> administration -> networking
[05:20] <nmorse> Thanks

[05:21] <jarkko_> Why Xlink kai gives "Segmentation fault" when I run it? What does it mean?
[05:21] <thoreauputic> struggler: just going to try ssh here to see if I can reproduce...
[05:21] <ionnek> ouh.
[05:21] <eventualbuddha> i have a samba share mounted at /mnt/ps15 (i think), but when i do sudo ls /mnt/ps15 it says Permission denied. any ideas?
[05:21] <gilligan_> anyone ever experienced hoary installation problems where the installation halts during 'Setting up primary installation repository' ?  i installed ubuntu on some machines before.. never happened - but i'm trying it for the 3rd time on my new shuttle pc and it always hangs there
[05:21] <nxv_> how to change the automake version the system uses?
[05:21] <Alakala> Anyone?
[05:21] <ionnek> thoreauputic told me to get to the -what was it called, rescue... - setup, so that i could talk to my computer.
[05:21] <struggler> thoreaupitic: Jani Jaakkola has a one liner to test it....
[05:21] <zAo^> gilligan_, took a look at the logging (ALT + F4)
[05:22] <thoreauputic> ionnek: recovery mode
[05:22] <ionnek> thanks :-)
[05:22] <setite> is there a way to kill my onboard mouse without restarting k
[05:22] <ionnek> it worked very well, even gave me a command line
[05:22] <setite> i cant type because i always bump it
[05:22] <ionnek> so i played with that.
[05:22] <uthini> installing a debian package on ubuntu, howto go about? i just paid for cedega and sum games
[05:22] <ionnek> i asked it df -hl
[05:22] <zAo^> ionnek, and now what? :)
[05:22] <thoreauputic> struggler: link?
[05:22] <ionnek> sorry, zAo
[05:22] <gilligan_> zAo^, nothing supicous besides 'debconf:Obsolete command TITLE Apt configuration called'

[05:23] <QMario> !Botsnack.
[05:23] <ubotu> thanks qmario :)
[05:24] <ionnek> so i am trying to login so that i can sit in the garden with my laptop, but can't get to my files.
[05:24] <zAo^> ionnek, lol. Well, can you login with root?
[05:24] <ionnek> found through google that probably some folder or other is full
[05:24] <uthini> tx speel
[05:24] <ionnek> arfhhhg
[05:24] <ionnek> !
[05:24] <ubotu> ionnek: Do they come in packets of five?
[05:24] <gilligan_> ah..crap.. no strace in busybox
[05:24] <zAo^> ionnek, df -hl / gives you?? <90% ?
[05:24] <ionnek> i am not sure i understand how ubuntu deals with root.
[05:25] <speel> np
[05:25] <idleminds> ionnek: use sudo
[05:25] <ionnek> when it works, i just use my ionnek login plus password.
[05:25] <zAo^> ionnek, sorry :) I do a sudo passwd root ....
[05:25] <ionnek> and if i need root, i open a root termnial.
[05:25] <idleminds> yes. ionnek
[05:25] <ionnek> so - being really stupid, i simply assumed that i don't have a root password!
[05:25] <zAo^> ionnek, in GDM try ALT + F2 ;-)
[05:25] <ionnek> ah, zao.
[05:25] <uthini> having trouble browsing a network pc

[05:26] <zAo^> ionnek, ubuntu doesnt have a root password :)
[05:26] <micampe> that's fun :)

[05:26] <funkyHat> gar, someone removed it :P
[05:27] <uthini> guys
[05:27] <neiras> micampe, thanks
[05:27] <neiras> micampe, what res will that give me
[05:27] <ionnek> ok, zAo, i did this ctrl alt f1 thing.
[05:27] <thoreauputic> struggler: can't say I follow that thread : I don't see anything unusual here but I guess that doesn't prove much
[05:27] <micampe> neiras, 1024x768
[05:27] <zAo^> ionnek, in a terminal right now? check you filessystems with "df -h"
[05:27] <struggler> thoreaupitic: Did you try the one-liner to test for the bug?
[05:27] <ionnek> first it brought up lots of error messages.
[05:27] <neiras> micampe: is it possible to get 1280x1024? That's my LCD's native resolution
[05:28] <zAo^> ionnek, wow, like what?
[05:28] <micampe> neiras, vga=794
[05:28] <jadedstar> anyone know of a starcraft-ish game for linux (free)?
[05:28] <anacron> neiras: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[05:28] <ionnek> zA0\
[05:28] <ionnek> oups
[05:28] <zAo^> :)
[05:28] <farsawoos> Greets :)
[05:28] <struggler> thoreaupitic: I happened upon the thread because I am having intermittent log off hangs and was looking for hints
[05:28] <anacron> neiras: i have 1280x1024 resolution
[05:28] <ionnek> anyway, i did df -hl from the recovery mode.
[05:28] <micampe> (whoever created that res should be kicked til the end of time)
[05:28] <zAo^> ionnek, nothing above 90% ?
[05:28] <neiras> anacron, we're talking text-mode, not X, but thanks
[05:28] <ionnek> and it told me that my /dev/hd1 is almost full
[05:29] <anacron> neiras: using SVGATextMode ?
[05:29] <zAo^> ionnek, try: sudo apt-get clean
[05:29] <Earered> jadedstar, freecraft, but it is not as good as starcraft (and abandonned last time I checked)
[05:29] <neiras> anacron: not unless that's what Hoary sets up by default
[05:29] <ionnek> zAo - hm.
[05:29] <anacron> neiras: im using that, but i can't find any good resolution
[05:30] <anacron> neiras: you should try that
[05:30] <jadedstar> Earered: Bah, thank you though. Was looking for something like Starcraft or C&C to kill some time
[05:30] <ionnek> if i apt-get clean, what happens??? is it a program that tries to fix my box, or is it something that wipes all my files?
[05:30] <farsawoos> koo koo kachoo!
[05:30] <neiras> anacron, I'll havve a look at it - thanks
[05:30] <micampe> anacron, why not just use the kernel framebuffer?
[05:30] <anacron> micampe: why not svgatextmode? :D
[05:30] <zAo^> ionnek, I wipes the cache to gain free space
[05:30] <thoreauputic> struggler: yep - it seems to give the bug output
[05:31] <micampe> ionnek, it removes the old package files apt downloaded
[05:31] <anacron> micampe: because i haven't try framebuffer yet, thats why i didn't know
[05:31] <anacron> to tell about it...
[05:31] <ionnek> zao, thanks
[05:31] <ionnek> i'll try that.
[05:31] <anacron> micampe: is it easy to set it up with framebuffer?
[05:31] <ionnek> :-)
[05:31] <micampe> anacron, just pass vga=792 to the kernel (don't know how that plays with that svgathing)
[05:31] <struggler> thoreaupitic: so.....what now?
[05:32] <micampe> anacron, that'll give you a 1024x768 console
[05:32] <zAo^> ionnek, take a look at the new messages, ok?
[05:32] <thoreauputic> struggler: I'm not a dev - I guess it should be reported on the ubuntu bugzilla
[05:32] <besfdsdf> anybody?
[05:32] <struggler> thoreaupitic: Well, I can't prove that it is a bug, all I know is I'm having logout hangs and it fails that test.
[05:33] <anacron> micampe: to kernel?, can you be more specifig, i don't know how to do that
[05:33] <Alakala> I'm trying to install Ubuntu on a external usb-hd, and even got it installed and got GRUB workin when its on my windows-hd, but when I try to boot, it kernel panics and can't find some places including /dev/console, help? (No special brand on the usb-hd, just a case with a maxtor in it. Repeating this, cause no-one answered)
[05:33] <LinuxJones> besfdsdf, what's wrong again ?
[05:33] <thoreauputic> struggler: right - maybe it needs confirmation from a dev : have you mentioned it in #ubuntu-devel ?
[05:33] <anacron> Alakala: have you tried the forums yet?
[05:34] <struggler> thoreaupitic: no but it will
[05:34] <LinuxJones> Alakala, you need to add usb support for your hd. Let me see if I can find you some information....1 sec
[05:34] <struggler> thoreaupitic: s/it/I
[05:34] <ionnek> hey zao, i cleaned the cache, thanks!
[05:34] <struggler> thoreaupitic: thanks for your time
[05:34] <thoreauputic> struggler: I'm not really competent to do more than confirm I saw the bug test fail
[05:34] <struggler> thoreaupitic: ok, thanks
[05:34] <micampe> anacron, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopSmallConsole
[05:35] <thoreauputic> struggler: you can mention I tried it if you wish
[05:35] <Alakala> anacron not yet, thought that this would be a better place to try.
[05:35] <ionnek> how if i do this df -hl thing again, it tells me that 5.2G on my 5.7 drive are used. and 94Mworth of tmpfs.
[05:35] <anacron> micampe: thanks
[05:35] <struggler> thoreaupitic: ok, I will
[05:35] <Alakala> LinuxJones ok, thanks.
[05:35] <ionnek> i would like to find out where these 5.2G are that i have apparently used.

[05:37] <funkyHat> uthini, there is another program using the package database, maybe you have synaptic open?

[05:38] <anacron> okay
[05:38] <Earered> jadedstar, if you are patient you can try to compile games available on sourceforge: http://sourceforge.net/softwaremap/trove_list.php?form_cat=81 or searching the universe repository (I've seen stratagus, though I don't know how good it is)
[05:38] <uthini> bwahahahahahhaha tx guys
[05:38] <micampe> you can find them in the kernel documentation
[05:39] <micampe> anybody managed to get a 1400x1050 console?

[05:44] <dieman> month old mysql issues!
[05:44] <dieman> etc,
[05:44] <dieman> i would hate to run services on osx if the vendor support is like that :)
[05:45] <ionnek> zAo and thoreaupeutic, thanks very much. i now managed to login.
[05:45] <farsawoos> I wish I could run OS X on my home desktop  :(
[05:45] <farsawoos> correction
[05:45] <farsawoos> I wish I could run OS X on my gaming desktop
[05:46] <ezek> why you can't
[05:46] <farsawoos> New game support isn't there.  hehe
[05:46] <ezek> many ppl do it natively
[05:46] <uthini> tx
[05:46] <uthini> u guys rock
[05:46] <farsawoos> Unless it can be emulated?
[05:46] <farsawoos> :o
[05:46] <ezek> ahh
[05:46] <ezek> i see
[05:46] <ezek> dunno about emu
[05:46] <farsawoos> Besides
[05:47] <micampe> I still don't get why anybody would want to play with something else than a console...
[05:47] <Thewarmachine> hello folks
[05:47] <farsawoos> Apple's hardware isn't up to the task, in many cases, for the latest generation titles.
[05:47] <Thewarmachine> I wanted to install enlightenment dr17
[05:47] <farsawoos> Though I hear ti runs WoW pretty well.  But, WoW isn't exactly system intensive.  lol
[05:47] <Thewarmachine> is there a straightforward method you knos of
[05:47] <LinuxJones> Alakala, I am looking but can't seem to find much relevent info :(
[05:48] <Alakala> LinuxJones :(
[05:48] <stratovarius> hey
[05:48] <ezek> micampe many pc games are nothing near from wht you get on cosole
[05:48] <ezek> and the inverse is true also
[05:49] <Thewarmachine> ok........ so aany ideas
[05:49] <iiiears> gotta have a keyboard/mouse controls. - a gamepad just isn't very good
[05:50] <ionnek> I have 5.7G on my hda1, but when i look in my home directory, I only have about 35000.
[05:50] <ezek> yeah and not only that
[05:50] <ionnek> does anyone know how to find out where the other bites are stored?
[05:50] <Thewarmachine> hello!?!?
[05:50] <ezek> you ever saw a game like half life or farcry on a console ?
[05:50] <LinuxJones> Alakala, as I remember there were some usb modules that you had to load to get your system to boot into the usb hard drive. I will keep looking gimem another few mins
[05:51] <quiet> Thewarmachine, build from source
[05:51] <Alakala> Sure, I've got time and thanks for helping. :)
[05:51] <Thewarmachine> dr17??
[05:51] <iiiears> farcry on a console? - hm... - doesn't sound too promising.
[05:51] <quiet> Thewarmachine, it's a development release... and buggy
[05:51] <apokryphos> !E
[05:51] <ubotu> well, e is Enlightenment (or "E") is a window manager for X, providing a useful, and good looking graphical shell in which to work; install: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=46105
[05:51] <xml-blog> can anyone help a noob with a pretty easy compilation / configure question?
[05:52] <quiet> Thewarmachine, it's nice... if you get it working right....  the new VectorLinux has it available for install from packages..
[05:52] <micampe> oh is E17 still developed? O thought it was dead years ago
[05:52] <Corric76> Hello, I have a WPC-11 ver4 Linksys Wireless Buscard and would like to know how to set it up for Ubuntu?
[05:52] <Thewarmachine> i had dr16 a while ago
[05:52] <dbernar1> hi.
[05:52] <Thewarmachine> so I wanted to see dr17
[05:52] <selinium> hi all, is there always a dd running? ie ps -C dd  ?
[05:53] <quiet> Corric76, NDIS wrapper is the only option... version 3 is PRISM II and supported out-of-the-box with orinioco_cs... v.4 sucks
[05:53] <VooDoo> hi all
[05:53] <selinium> hi
[05:53] <Corric76> I have no idea what NDIS wrapper is
[05:53] <dbernar1> So, I set out to set up connection sharing in Ubuntu, and document the process...and it does not really work right away...so I meddle with it, and in the end, I really do nothing to change it from when it did not work, and it starts working...annoying, eh? Now I dont know how to document it.
[05:53] <apokryphos> Thewarmachine: if the version in the nooms repo is too old, then there isn't a newer one out yet, no (in an apt repo).
[05:54] <quiet> Corric76, NDIS wrapper is a tool tat can wrap up with windows ndis driver for the card.. and make it usable under linux
[05:54] <jadedstar> Earered: Thanks. Sorry for slow response ran afk for 5 min.
[05:55] <selinium> can someone let me know if they have dd running. I have and I am not sure it should be. in term 'ps -C dd'   cheers
[05:55] <Corric76> How do I do that?
[05:55] <quiet> Corric76, start here:  http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?threadid=348252     and also google...
[05:55] <dbernar1> selinium: sudo dpkg -L dd if dd is the package name.
[05:55] <iiiears> selinium - dd is running on this machine also - no idea why it runs all the time tho.
[05:56] <dfeed> hmmm... What is dd anyway?
[05:56] <selinium> dbernar1: It is part of the linux framework. I just want to see if it starts during boot
[05:56] <nevin> its a file i/o tool, for copying between character and block devices... it shouldn't start at boot, its a command line tool
[05:56] <selinium> dfeed: it is a copying application.
[05:56] <Corric76> ok I have been trying to set this up for a week now... IS there a away to REMOVE ubuntu from the laptop?
[05:57] <iiiears> dfeed - it is a handy command for writing/piping data to disks
[05:57] <Chameleon22> i am trying to run gnokii as a different user (as apposed to root) and need to add them to the right groups, added user to dialout group since thats what owns (root:dialout) ttyS0, error i get is: -Gnokii serial_open: open: Permission denied-Couldn't open FBUS device: Permission denied-Telephone interface init failed... any ideas?
[05:57] <selinium> nevin: can you check yours please, ps -C dd
[05:57] <dfeed> ah, makes sense.
[05:57] <nevin> try: ps ax | grep dd
[05:58] <nevin> /bin/dd bs 1 if /proc/kmsg of /var/run/klogd/kmsg
[05:58] <quiet> Corric76, "sudo rm -rfv /"
[05:58] <dbernar1> ya
[05:58] <nevin> its logging kernel messages from the proc system file out to a real file on your hd
[05:58] <letme0ut> damn this channel is just hot
[05:59] <quiet> :\
[05:59] <dbernar1> ps hehe
[05:59] <letme0ut> im pretty husky
[05:59] <letme0ut> got a big ol belly
[05:59] <hotxSAUCE> how do u find all of the command available in linux via shell?
[05:59] <letme0ut> and some smokes
[05:59] <selinium> nevin: cheers! i just wanted to make sure it wasn't an old one hanging around from some iso burning i have been trying to get working!
[05:59] <iiiears> ps ax | grep dd   - THANK YOU :)
[05:59] <nevin> hotxSAUCE, press "tab" twice
[06:00] <selinium> nevin: ripping, not burning
[06:00] <Srekel> is "find * | grep filename" the recommended way to find files with file name filename?
[06:00] <BollocksMacenzie> Is there a way to make a bash script load on boot of gnome?
[06:00] <nevin> slinium, indeed, no problem
[06:00] <quiet> i just use locate
[06:00] <micampe> Srekel, Places -> Search for files
[06:00] <Srekel> haha, thanks
[06:00] <two-four-five-T> man bash :)
[06:00] <quiet> man bash!?
[06:00] <micampe> Srekel, if you really want find, it's find -name
[06:01] <quiet> that like... gay bash?
[06:01] <jadedstar> lol
[06:01] <quiet> er... redneck bash?
[06:01] <quiet> lol
[06:01] <nevin> BollocksMacenzie: System -> Preferences -> Sessions, then go to the Startup Programs tab
[06:01] <dgold> hello. how do i go about authenticating the uni/multiverse repositories? (or pointer to documentation)
[06:01] <dbernar1> anyhow, I think you somehow need to add the script to /etc/init.d
[06:01] <BollocksMacenzie> nevin : cheers!
[06:01] <dbernar1> nevin: likely not what he wants.
[06:02] <selinium> i have got O'reilly's Running Linux in front of me, and it doesn't have any documentation in the index on grep. Anyone fancy giving a quick synopsis?
[06:02] <dbernar1> that is for when you login for it to start.
[06:02] <nevin> dbernar1: he said GNOME, not linux
[06:02] <anacron> oh man
[06:02] <anacron> im so happy when i can play stepmania again :D
[06:02] <dbernar1> selinium: info grep, tldp.org
[06:02] <BollocksMacenzie> dberner1: It is actually! I need something to run a few commands at user level!
[06:02] <hotxSAUCE> is there a way to automatically have access to my pc network without going to the places>network server ?
[06:02] <dbernar1> true, I missed that.
[06:02] <selinium> dbernar1: cheers
[06:02] <eventualbuddha> hotxSAUCE: via samba?
[06:03] <jaakko> hello. anybody using xfce4???
[06:03] <quiet> hotxSAUCE, open up nautilus/konqueror and type "smb:///"
[06:03] <hotxSAUCE> like on the winxp i would creat a shortcut on the desktop //mypc/
[06:03] <dbernar1> jaakko: ask.
[06:03] <dbernar1> jaakko: unless you are taking a poll.
[06:03] <hotxSAUCE> and i can access it when ever i click on the short cut. can i do that in ubuntu ?
[06:03] <jaakko> i accidentally removed the menu panel or whatever... could you tell me how to get it back please
[06:03] <nevin> hotxSAUCE: you can also use the "Connect to Server" feature of nautilus
[06:03] <eventualbuddha> hotxSAUCE: http://www.linuxhomenetworking.com/linux-hn/samba-shares.htm
[06:04] <eventualbuddha> i was just dealing with a similar problem
[06:04] <Azagthoth> hello :) Can anybody help me to connect to the internet with a dialup modem with the ubuntu live CD please ? :)
[06:04] <dabaR> jaakko: did you check on the #xfce? you have to wait there for a while, but they usually answer.
[06:04] <Azagthoth> the modem is detected in the device list, but I can't find where to configure it : /
[06:05] <quiet> Azagthoth, it's an internal modem?
[06:05] <Azagthoth> yup
[06:05] <Azagthoth> a smartlink 56k
[06:05] <jaakko> ok ill ask there.. thanks
[06:05] <quiet> probably a winmodem.. and won't work..
[06:05] <Azagthoth> yes it's a winmodem : /
[06:05] <Azagthoth> isn't there a way to install drivers for those modems ?
[06:06] <dabaR> Azagthoth: http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/docs/HOWTO/other-formats/html/PPP-HOWTO-html.tar.gz may help, I have not tried,.
[06:06] <Azagthoth> ok I'll check the link thanks a lot :)
[06:06] <thoreauputic> Azagthoth: send a polite letter to the manufacturer explaining that it would be nice if they supplied specs and drivers for their products to the linux community
[06:06] <dabaR> its a tar.gz, so you need to unpack it.
[06:06] <Thewarmachine> OH man enlightenment is gorgeous
[06:07] <thoreauputic> Azagthoth: asuming they don't , that is ;)
[06:07] <quiet> Thewarmachine, 16 or 17??
[06:07] <Thewarmachine> 17
[06:07] <quiet> where'd you get it?
[06:07] <Azagthoth> I didn't check ^^
[06:07] <Thewarmachine> I believe apokryphos gave me the link
[06:08] <quiet> Thewarmachine, oh.. from the forums?
[06:08] <zege> hi
[06:08] <letme0ut> hi zege
[06:08] <zege> I've a big wlan prob,
[06:09] <zege> and i don't know what to do
[06:09] <letme0ut> describe ure problem
[06:10] <letme0ut> there are a lot of people here someone will probably know how to fix it
[06:10] <Thewarmachine> yeah
[06:11] <Thewarmachine> from the forums
[06:11] <Thewarmachine> its kickass
[06:11] <zege> I've got a broadcom maxperformance 802.11g WLAN Card bulit in in my Notebook (compaq nx9105)
[06:11] <Thewarmachine> but one thing I noticed, it dosnt show all of your apps
[06:11] <Thewarmachine> you need to run them from command prompt
[06:11] <zege> and i've already installed the driver with ndiswrapper, but i doesn't work
[06:12] <apokryphos> It's good, but enlightenment seems pretty embryonic still, though very cool.
[06:12] <letme0ut> eh
[06:12] <letme0ut> ure using ubuntu?
[06:12] <apokryphos> Great affects :)
[06:12] <Thewarmachine> I agree
[06:12] <ionnek> can someone point me to some helpfiles? I don't know how to ask the right question and don't find a solution in the ubuntu wiki.
[06:12] <Thewarmachine> i see the bugs you guys were talking about
[06:12] <fredforfaen> yeah E7 is sweet , but i prefer XFCE4
[06:12] <Thewarmachine> I have that too
[06:12] <funkyHat> apokryphos, where can i get enlinghtenment 17?
[06:12] <ionnek> it's about finding out where lots of bytes are being stored.
[06:13] <ionnek> how can i find big files?
[06:13] <apokryphos> !e

[06:14] <Thewarmachine> new apps to install i guess
[06:14] <Azagthoth> oh btw, is there a way to mount my NTFS drives under ubuntu lvie CD please ? :D
[06:14] <quiet> Azagthoth, not RW
[06:14] <micampe> ionnek, or you could do, in a shell: "du /home/ionnek | sort -n"
[06:15] <drcodedd2> can I do link to /dev/stin to /dev/osst0 ?
[06:15] <Azagthoth> just in read mode ?

[06:16] <micampe> yup
[06:16] <paulproteu1> sartas: Or using Synaptic.  I personally recommend Synaptic.
[06:17] <ionnek> doin it
[06:17] <paulproteu1> hotxSAUCE: It very likely it will be detected.
[06:17] <apokryphos> Azagthoth: you'll have to alter /dev/hda to whatever same with /mnt/windows -- where to mount it on
[06:17] <sartas> ok

[06:17] <Carlosh> ?
[06:17] <paulproteu1> Carlosh: You'd be best off Googling the card.  These days, the usual answer is, "Yes, the card is supported one way or another."
[06:17] <hotxSAUCE> paulpro- well i'm only worry because i isntalled it on a compaq sr1010z with intergrated card and  ubuntu cant detect it and  the refresh rate is terrible
[06:18] <Azagthoth> I'll try that thanks for your help :) good bye ^^

[06:18] <hotxSAUCE> i tried going to the company that made the card wichi is Sis but they dont have anyd river for linux

[06:18] <hotxSAUCE> i brought the linux sr1010z this month. and the dell 4600 last yrs
[06:18] <yankee> Hi, i have a question. Im having a problem running ubuntu on a dell latitude d510 im using the live cd, everything runs and loads great but when the gui loads all i hear is the startup sound and the display goes black...
[06:18] <iiiears> Azag, - check out an automated script for mounting all hard drives.   winmac_fstab
[06:18] <zege> speel:>> I've alsoa wlan prob, but me and google can't solve it. May you know how to?
[06:19] <paulproteus> hotxSAUCE: Huh.  Do you know what video chip is in the 4600?
[06:19] <Carlosh> em.. there is some tutorial in Lithuanian (my laguage). can i try it?
[06:19] <paulproteus> If it's ATI or NVidia, then it'll surely work.
[06:19] <iiiears> !winmac_fstab
[06:19] <ubotu> winmac_fstab is, like, totally, A script that facilitates easy mounting of NTFS/FAT (Windows) and HFS+ (Mac) hard drives and partitions. http://www.ubuntulinux.nl/files/
[06:19] <Carlosh> but it is for mandrake
[06:19] <hotxSAUCE> the intergrated card for the compaq is made by Sis.... as for the dell i didnt check yet  but i'm sure it is made by intell
[06:19] <paulproteus> Carlosh: Well, give me a URL and I'll see if I think it applies.
[06:19] <paulproteus> hotxSAUCE: Intel chips should be fine.
[06:20] <Carlosh> paulproteus ok wait a minute
[06:20] <paulproteus> Make sure to install the latest release of Ubuntu, of coruse.
[06:20] <speel> zege:>> check http://www.linuxquestions.org/hcl/index.php
[06:20] <paulproteus> And to spell "course" right, of course.
[06:20] <zege> i did this already, but there is no solution for my model
[06:20] <KeeganW> zege: ndiswrapper is evil, u may have to join the ranks of those who have busted out the 'ol cat5
[06:20] <dfeed> hotxSAUCE: My computer has an integrated intel card, which gave me a few problems. I had to edit the xorg.conf file to include refresh rates for the monitor, and even then when I first start up gnome, I have to switch back to a terminal then back to gnome to get the screen looking right.
[06:20] <paulproteus> KeeganW: Sadly, I use ndiswrapper.
[06:21] <Carlosh> paulproteus > here's the link: http://www.mandrake.lt/?mid=2&smid=2&id=50&
[06:21] <KeeganW> zege: I am currently having the same problem with my Dell 6000, it uses the Dell Wireless 1450 (broadcom chipset)
[06:21] <paulproteus> dfeed: Usually /etc/init.d/gdm stop ; /etc/init.d/gdm start does the trick.
[06:21] <KeeganW> paulproteus: it works for u?
[06:21] <zege> KeeganW: I've also tried to do it with ndiswrapper, but this also doesn't work
[06:21] <paulproteus> KeeganW: Yeah.
[06:21] <quiet> dfeed, i believe intel ahs linux drivers available too
[06:21] <yankee> can somone help me with my problem please?
[06:21] <KeeganW> paulproteus: wat card do u use?
[06:21] <speel> yankee:>> state the problem
[06:21] <andril> hello all
[06:21] <ionnek> micampe - can u help me interpret the output of du /home etc?
[06:21] <paulproteus> DWL520 or 650 by D Link.
[06:21] <yankee> Hi, i have a question. Im having a problem running ubuntu on a dell latitude d510 im using the live cd, everything runs and loads great but when the gui loads all i hear is the startup sound and the display goes black...
[06:22] <dfeed> paulproteous: I'm kind of new to this. Could you tell me what I have to do with those files?
[06:22] <KeeganW> yankee: do you meet the hardware requirements?
[06:22] <anacaona> hello all
[06:22] <nevin> yankee: check to see if your refresh rates in xorg.conf are correct, and whether you are using the correct driver
[06:22] <yankee> when it checks the hardware it doesnt give me an error
[06:22] <anacaona> is there an ubuntu package repository
[06:22] <paulproteus> dfeed: When you had troubles getting the new refresh rate settings to apply, the best solution is to run: $ sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop ; sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
[06:22] <anacaona> ?
[06:22] <quiet> dfeed, look up the the board/chip on Intel's website for drivers.. should explain how to install
[06:22] <paulproteus> anacaona: Yes.  Fire up Synaptic and take a look.
[06:23] <paulproteus> Carlosh: Do you use WEP or WPA or no encryption or what on your wireless network?
[06:23] <anacaona> i need to do some upgrades on a pc with no internet connection and i need to download individual packages
[06:23] <thoshbourne> hey guys i just got my linux ubuntu today
[06:23] <dfeed> paulproteus: Ah, I see. Thanks.
[06:23] <hotxSAUCE> how long does it take to get the ubuntu cd? i ordered two weeks ago
[06:23] <KeeganW> thoshbourne, congrats
[06:23] <Carlosh> paulproteus > i don't really know! how can i chek that?
[06:23] <quiet> hotxSAUCE, 6-8 weeks
[06:24] <hotxSAUCE> i ordered 10 of it so i can ebay them off and make some cash.....
[06:24] <hotxSAUCE> jk
[06:24] <paulproteus> Carlosh: Are you the one setting up your wireless network?
[06:24] <paulproteus> Or did someone else?
[06:24] <micampe> ionnek, <file size> <file name>
[06:24] <anacaona> paulproteus: yeah, i know about synaptic, but I need to download the individual packages on another pc so can't use synaptic
[06:24] <thoreauputic> anacaona: http://packages.ubuntu.com/  (but be aware you will have dependency issues to sort out)
[06:24] <nevin> hotxSAUCE: it took aboot 6 weeks for them to arive in Toronto
[06:24] <quiet> i always download the iso.. but i order the free ones because of the nice packaging... i give them out on the magazine table at my office
[06:24] <hotxSAUCE> i'm going to give ubunto to my aunt she is a compputer newbie and  all she does is email and aim and web surf
[06:24] <paulproteus> anacaona: Read through /etc/apt/sources.list , then.
[06:25] <Carlosh> paulproteus there are other people who connects to same channel but not with the lan
[06:25] <hotxSAUCE> my aunt always call me and ask me how to remove spyware
[06:25] <paulproteus> "but not with the lan" - what does this mean?
[06:25] <hotxSAUCE> i told her to stop using windows
[06:25] <apokryphos> anacaona: the above link to search; the actual files are stored in archive.ubuntu.com
[06:25] <hotxSAUCE> if u order 1000 ubuntu cd will it come?
[06:26] <nevin> hotxSAUCE: I ver sincerely doubt it
[06:26] <iiiears> hotxSAUCE, install streantuner for her.
[06:26] <ionnek> thanks micampe. looks like my realplayer has saved something it shouldn't. Now I'm trying to find the realplayer.
[06:26] <anacaona> apokryphos: thanks, i'll check that out. cuz when i look through the urls in sources.list there's these huge compressed files.
[06:26] <Carlosh> paulproteus every body has unical IP ant unical connection to the channel. and sorry for my english! :/
[06:26] <apokryphos> I heard a few hundred thousand are shipped every week
[06:26] <nightswim> if you actually have a valid reason to need 1000 you might
[06:26] <quiet> hotxSAUCE, beware of forcing Linux on family members... it may blow up in your face... if they have a program/game they want to use and can't because you stuck them on some obscure OS
[06:26] <paulproteus> Carlosh: "unical" - is that a company that makes a wireless card?
[06:27] <Carlosh> paulproteus no! i think i said something wrong
[06:27] <paulproteus> Carlosh: Okay. :)
[06:27] <hotxSAUCE> oh my aunt doesnt play games
[06:27] <hotxSAUCE> she jus surb/email/ and chat on irc
[06:27] <hotxSAUCE> surf so i think ubuntu will be ok
[06:27] <paulproteus> Carlosh: This might be bad advice for non-technical Engilsh discussions, but the more words you use and the more you tell me, the easier it'll be for me to understand what you're talking about.
[06:28] <quiet> hotxSAUCE, make sure you install flash/java and everything for her too...
[06:28] <Thewarmachine> XFCE IS THE DEVIL
[06:28] <Carlosh> paulproteus sorry but i can't talk now :/ i'll come back later. Sorry for your time! bye
[06:28] <apokryphos> it's not too bad
[06:28] <Thewarmachine> man it happened again!!!!
[06:28] <hotxSAUCE> quiet- oh i never thought of that.. but are they ez to install. ?
[06:28] <paulproteus> Carlosh: Okay.  Good luck!
[06:28] <paulproteus> Thewarmachine: I don't agree.
[06:28] <hotxSAUCE> i can install them via synaptic rigth?
[06:28] <apokryphos> hotxSAUCE: indeed
[06:29] <Thewarmachine> under applications a fu88888 debian menu popped up
[06:29] <quiet> hotxSAUCE, can be... checkout wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[06:29] <paulproteus> hotxSAUCE: Yes, though you'll need Ubuntu-Extras for Java.
[06:29] <anacaona> apokryphos: archives gives me bz2 and gz2 files, i need the .deb packages
[06:29] <apokryphos> anacaona: they're there
[06:29] <apokryphos> anacaona: check under pool
[06:29] <paulproteus> anacaona: I urge you to use packages.ubuntu.com to find direct download links.
[06:29] <hotxSAUCE> ubuntu work great out of the box i dont know why people are using red hat
[06:29] <hotxSAUCE> is red hat easier to use?
[06:30] <apokryphos> paulproteus: does it have them?
[06:30] <hotxSAUCE> or is it because red hat is market better?
[06:30] <Thewarmachine> you guys, i have a question
[06:30] <quiet> hotxSAUCE, redhat isn't free... nor does it support MP3s
[06:30] <paulproteus> apokryphos: Well, it has buttons to push.
[06:30] <anacaona> paulproteus: thanks, i'll try that.
[06:30] <nevin> fedora core is free though
[06:30] <Thewarmachine> is it bad that I have a debian menu under applications
[06:30] <Thewarmachine> ?
[06:30] <paulproteus> hotxSAUCE: Companies use RedHat so they can pay the company for support.
[06:30] <KeeganW> I am currently using fedora myself. I think both ubuntu and fedora each have their own thing to offer
[06:30] <apokryphos> paulproteus: where exactly?
[06:30] <ionnek> is there a command that lets me find a certain file? LIke realplay.bin?
[06:30] <hotxSAUCE> quite- i guess people think if something is free it cant be as good as red hat
[06:30] <paulproteus> Thewarmachine: No.  It just means some packages from Universe have extra menu items.
[06:30] <nevin> there's also the matter of support
[06:31] <ezek> KeeganW explain me what fedora have to offer ?
[06:31] <nevin> buying RHEL gets you some nice support options
[06:31] <yoz> hi guys.. I'm using irssi as client.. I was used to sqitch between windows with alt + arrow right/left and scroll my nicklist with alt + arrow down/up though in gnome-terminal it doesn't work since nothing happens when I press them. any clue how to bind them actually?
[06:31] <apokryphos> paulproteus: nevermind, I found it
[06:31] <quiet> hotxSAUCE, well... though it's a little slow.. but no more so than fedora/redhat SuSE is good... and free... and has full multimedia support...
[06:31] <hotxSAUCE> so i should buy red hat and stop using ubuntu?
[06:31] <apokryphos> anacaona: yeah, p.u.c will be easier
[06:31] <paulproteus> ezek: Also, FC4 has nice integration for Xen, the new virtual machine system.
[06:31] <Thewarmachine> paulproteus: you sure that thats ok?
[06:31] <apokryphos> hotxSAUCE: why?
[06:31] <hotxSAUCE> since i'm newbie it is hard for me to get information  and so on
[06:31] <paulproteus> "new" compared to user-mode Linux.
[06:32] <paulproteus> Thewarmachine: Yes!  What kind of "not okay" could it be?
[06:32] <paulproteus> "Having a Debian menu in XFCE4 has been linked to prostate cancer"?
[06:32] <hotxSAUCE> apo - because nevin said red hat have nice support
[06:32] <quiet> hotxSAUCE, not necessarily... i would recommend trying a few different distrobutions... and pick what you feel most comfortable with...
[06:32] <nevin> hotxSAUCE: no, red hat enterprise linux is meant for companies that want 24/7 telephone support
[06:32] <Thewarmachine> lol
[06:32] <hotxSAUCE> oh sorry
[06:32] <Thewarmachine> well doctor you have misdiagnosed
[06:32] <Thewarmachine> it is colon cancer
[06:32] <KeeganW> ubuntu is more for the desktop user, fedora is more for developer (it includes eclipse and kdevelop)
[06:32] <apokryphos> ubotu: tell Thewarmachine about tab
[06:33] <quiet> hotxSAUCE, red hat workstation is like $300/year for support from red hat
[06:33] <nevin> hotxSAUCE: it starts at like $400 for the basic options, goes up to several 1000
[06:33] <hotxSAUCE> well i installed red hat fc4 into my computer but it doesnt work and gave me the black screen..
[06:33] <hotxSAUCE> so i tried ubuntu and it work out of the box
[06:33] <nevin> bad gfx settings methinks
[06:33] <nevin> but stick with ubuntu... its .... cooler
[06:33] <hotxSAUCE> obviously i'm new to linux i didnt know how to get fc4 to work right
[06:33] <DocTomoe> i set up flash according to http://ubuntuguide.org/ ... but there are no fonts in flash. Has anyone here experienced similar problems?
[06:33] <paulproteus> hotxSAUCE: Any version of Red Hat that's not called "Enterprise Linux" or "Fedora" is *ancient*.
[06:33] <KeeganW> I couldn't get x windows to work on debian, so I ended up trashing that
[06:33] <quiet> you can get "Red Hat Professional Workstation" at Best Buy for ~$60-$100 and you get 1/year of updates... and it's actually RHEL WS... without the tec support directly from Red Hat
[06:34] <Doonz> hey guys if i already have ubuntu installed on my main sata can i add a ide drive and make that drive a windows os?
[06:34] <hotxSAUCE> so what is the new est red hat call ?
[06:34] <KeeganW> ubuntu: wireless card didn't work, mousepad scrolling didn't work
[06:34] <Doonz> !dual boot
[06:34] <ubotu> Doonz: I don't know
[06:34] <quiet> hotxSAUCE, Fedora Core 4 or Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4
[06:34] <Thewarmachine> brb
[06:34] <Doonz> damn you
[06:34] <KeeganW> fedora: soundcard didn;t work, wifi didn't work
[06:34] <nevin> you can also try using CentOS, which is RedHat Enterprise rebuilt from the freely available sources, which you can get forfree
[06:34] <osfameron> wifi worked fine in ubuntu, but the graphical toolset is still fairly pish
[06:34] <fredforfaen> !dualboot
[06:34] <ubotu> methinks dualboot is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WindowsDualBootHowTo
[06:35] <KeeganW> I have some proprietary hardware, because I am using a dell laptop
[06:35] <mib> My printer (Brother HL5150) won't do anything. It's connected through USB and I have created it as a printer in System->Administration->Printing... Any ideas?
[06:35] <LinuxJones> Doonz, you can but installing Microsoft on the other drive will probably wipe out your Master Boot Record and prevent you from booting into Linux
[06:35] <DocTomoe> KeeganW: I *never* had problems with Dell laptops and linux
[06:35] <KeeganW> dual booting worked well on both
[06:35] <charles> I'm having some problems with my xorg installation, I just upgraded and it wont start
[06:35] <fredforfaen> Doonz do this !dualboot
[06:35] <Doonz> !dualboot
[06:35] <ubotu> [dualboot]  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WindowsDualBootHowTo
[06:35] <fredforfaen> :)
[06:35] <KeeganW> doctome: but did u use a dell wireless card?
[06:35] <DocTomoe> Anyone has an Idea what I can do about my flash problem?
[06:35] <LinuxJones> charles, you upgraded from Warty to Hoary ?
[06:36] <anacaona> paulproteus: thanks, that's exactly what I was looking for!
[06:36] <yoz> anyone an idea with my problem?
[06:36] <charles> I get "Fatal server error: Caught signal 11. Server aborting",
[06:36] <DocTomoe> KeeganW: You may want to try ndiswrapper
[06:36] <charles> LinuxJones, nah, I just did an apt-get upgrade recently
[06:36] <LinuxJones> charles, what did you upgrade to ?
[06:36] <KeeganW> doctomoe, i did
[06:36] <LinuxJones> charles, did you install the nvidia or ati binary drivers ?
[06:36] <DocTomoe> KeeganW: and it didn't work? stranke?
[06:36] <KeeganW> doctomoe, i think maybe my driver doesn't work
[06:36] <DocTomoe> s/strake\?/strange\,/
[06:37] <charles> yeah
[06:37] <Doonz> crap so i need to install windows frist then install ubuntu?
[06:37] <KeeganW> doctomoe, nope. It said it was an invalid driver. I have a dell 1450, and used the bcmwl5.inf, no success
[06:37] <KeeganW> there are sacrifices one must make to use linux, but to screw MS, it is well worth it
[06:38] <LinuxJones> charles, you might have to install the linux-restricted-modules for your new kernel
[06:38] <charles> okay i'll give that a shot
[06:38] <XandriX> i keep jaming at 32 percent
[06:39] <LinuxJones> charles, do you know if your running the i386, K7 or 686 kernel ?
[06:39] <XandriX> it says segmentation fault everytime i hit 32 percent on the base install
[06:39] <charles> i686
[06:39] <mib> Any ideas for my printer problem?
[06:40] <LinuxJones> ok try installing linux-restricted-modules-686 and restarting xserver hopefully it will work :)
[06:41] <charles> LinuxJones , it wants to install a new kernel as well so I'll reboot to be as fresh as possible
[06:41] <LinuxJones> mib, is your printer listed in the network-admin printer setup utility ?
[06:41] <XandriX> would anyone have an idea why is it that i always crash at 32 percent of the base install it just says segmentation fault
[06:41] <LinuxJones> charles, ok
[06:41] <eliphas_> where is locate mysql.sock on the ubuntu system ?
[06:42] <LinuxJones> XandriX, a bad cdrom probably
[06:42] <mib> LinuxJones: Yep. And using USB1 (I'm not having any other USB printers)
[06:42] <XandriX> LinuxJones, dmanit
[06:42] <LinuxJones> mib, your sure your printer is turned on ?
[06:42] <zege> i've a litte question: when nidswrapper -l >>  bcmwl5  driver present      says, then the hardware is found, isn't it?
[06:43] <mib> LinuxJ: Yup. It prints it's built-in test page. And I've tried two different USB cables so that's not the problem...
[06:43] <SER[ChatNick] > how to add ms fonts on my ubuntu? I need clear fonts like windows fonts? does anybody help me?
[06:43] <LinuxJones> mib, what applications are you trying to print from Firefox one of them ?
[06:44] <XandriX> ooo now thats an original nick
[06:44] <highvoltage> hi. is there anything wrong with using ubuntuguide? I've heard that people have said that it shouldn't be used before.
[06:44] <osfameron> SER[ChatNick] , there's msttcorefonts which you can download with synaptic/apt-get ?
[06:44] <poisonerbg> hi all, is somebody can help me, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=57038
[06:44] <mib> LinuxJ: Nope. I've tried OpenOffice and the test page the Printers dialog offers.
[06:44] <LinuxJones> highvoltage, there are some issues with it yeah
[06:44] <bilge> hello
[06:44] <selinium> hi all, anyone know how to read the internal mbox file with thunderbird?
[06:44] <bilge> Anyone setup snmpd?
[06:44] <highvoltage> LinuxJones: what are the issues, someone on #ubuntu-doc wants to know.
[06:44] <SER[ChatNick] > osfameron, I know, but i have a bad results in mozilla
[06:44] <SER[ChatNick] > :(
[06:44] <eliphas_> i got it run thru myslq.sock
[06:45] <XandriX> LinuxJones, would make sense im redownloading the iso and just ook out a fresh empty cd
[06:45] <selinium> !ubuntuguide
[06:45] <ubotu> somebody said ubuntuguide was a set of instructions with no explanation. Please do not advise people to use ubuntuguide.  Advise https://wiki.ubuntu.com instead. The official FAQ Guide will be released with Breezy, stay tuned
[06:45] <selinium> highvoltage: ^^^^^
[06:45] <LinuxJones> mib, can you open up gedit and try printing some random text to see if it prints from there ?
[06:46] <bunniears> Hi all
[06:46] <bunniears> could anyone help, how can I connect to my ubuntu installeration from windows?
[06:46] <LinuxJones> highvoltage, they used to recommend adding the mirilat repos for debian which causes some problems
[06:46] <highvoltage> LinuxJones: ah
[06:47] <mib> LinuxJ: It didn't. Hardware issue?
[06:47] <selinium> LinuxJones highvoltage: Look at the ubotu response further up aswell
[06:47] <LinuxJones> mib, I would power off your printer first
[06:48] <highvoltage> selinium: yes, i did. thanks.
[06:48] <Doonz> Setup is unable to find the "gcc" program on your machine.  Please make sure it
[06:48] <Doonz> is installed.  Do you want to specify the location of this program by hand?
[06:48] <mib> LinuxJ: And reboot the printer?
[06:48] <Doonz> where would i find the gcc i did a locate but it came up with a bunch of stuff with gcc in it
[06:48] <LinuxJones> mib, then issue the command /etc/init.d/cupsys stop , power up the printer then  /etc/init.d/cupsys start
[06:49] <bilge> bunniears do you want to access your linux filesystem?
[06:49] <selinium> highvoltage: I am gald that there will be an official ubuntuguide released with breezy. I for one found UG very useful when I first started.
[06:49] <bunniears> no bilge
[06:49] <selinium> glad*
[06:49] <bunniears> i have ubuntu running
[06:49] <bilge> what do you want to access?
[06:49] <bunniears> and i want to access it from a windows computer on the network
[06:49] <anacron> i think ubuntuguide is good too
[06:49] <bunniears> sorry i should have explained my self better
[06:50] <bilge> you need to install samba server
[06:50] <mib> LinuxJ: Still not working....
[06:50] <bunniears> could you help me do that?
[06:50] <Xappe> bunniears: access in what way?
[06:50] <selinium> bunniears: install samba on ubu tu
[06:50] <bunniears> VNC type access?
[06:50] <bilge> open synaptic and search for samba
[06:51] <selinium> bunniears: ssh?
[06:51] <bilge> question can you access windows from ubuntu?
[06:51] <LinuxJones> mib, if you can print a test page from within the gnome-cups-manager your printer is working ok. Is it set as the default printer in that configuration utility ?
[06:51] <tofu1> hey
[06:51] <bunniears> i want remote desktop connection?
[06:52] <bunniears> so i can control ubuntu from windows>
[06:52] <yoz> hi guys.. I'm using irssi as client.. I was used to sqitch between windows with alt + arrow right/left and scroll my nicklist with alt + arrow down/up though in gnome-terminal it doesn't work since nothing happens when I press them. any clue how to bind them actually?
[06:52] <bilge> sorry bunniears I should ask waht type of access
[06:52] <bilge> samaba is for file sytem access
[06:52] <tofu1> i just installed ubuntu, it's easy as heck! anyway... i'm having trouble visiting www.maplesglobal.com with firefox
[06:52] <mib> LinuxJ: The printing dialog says "printing: job-printing" under satus for the document but nothing happens... But it is the default printer...
[06:52] <LinuxJones> bunniears, maybe you should look to tightvnc it has a java applet to control a desktop from within a web browser even :)
[06:52] <bilge> put on vnc
[06:52] <bunniears> i found vncserver in the package manager
[06:52] <bunniears> :)
[06:53] <bilge> it's really easy to setup, just installit
[06:53] <LinuxJones> mib, I don't know what the heck else to check, it does print the test page correct ?
[06:53] <bilge> then get a free vnc client for windows like tightvnc
[06:53] <bunniears> im new to ubuntu you see
[06:53] <bunniears> lol
[06:53] <bilge> i find vnc access quite slow, can you not sit in front of it?
[06:54] <Doonz> What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your running
[06:54] <Doonz> kernel???
[06:54] <tofu1> anyone?
[06:54] <mib> LinuxJ: It can't print the page from the computer, but it can print it's own built-in page (that would work even without the printer being connected to a computer at all).
[06:54] <bunniears> i spend a lot of my time downstairs, i have a clinical problem, which means i dont like to be by my self..
[06:54] <fraggsta> is there a problem with the postfix package?  I can't remove it, it's pre-removal script fails mysteriously.
[06:54] <tofu1> also.. i tried transferring a file using gftp and it crashes every time i hit the arrow to transfer
[06:55] <Doonz> !c header
[06:55] <ubotu> Doonz: I don't know, could you explain it?
[06:55] <Doonz> i would if i could
[06:55] <funkyHat> how strange. ALSA works in e17
[06:55] <bunniears> thanks all :0)
[06:55] <bunniears> xx
[06:56] <tofu1> hm
[06:56] <fraggsta> dpkg: error processing postfix (--remove):
[06:56] <fraggsta>  subprocess pre-removal script returned error exit status 1
[06:56] <darkheart> funkyHat Why is that strange?
[06:56] <fraggsta> ok, so HOW do I find out why it failed?
[06:56] <keith> <~ now attempting to get printer to work
[06:56] <LinuxJones> mib, so the print test page option from inside gnome-cups-admin doesn't work ?
[06:56] <funkyHat> darkheart, it doesn't work when i'm running gnome
[06:57] <darkheart> funkyHat What soundcard?
[06:57] <mib> LinuxJones, nope. As far as I can tell there's no communication with the printer at all.
[06:57] <linukso> funkyHat: how did you install e17 in ubuntu, did you compile it from cvs?
[06:57] <funkyHat> darkheart, it's an nvidia nforce2, alsa does actually work, X apps can't use it, i think becaue gnome loads esound which blocks it
[06:58] <LinuxJones> mib, ok try removing the printer currently listed in there.
[06:58] <funkyHat> linukso, no, i followed the ubuntu wiki
[06:58] <linukso> funkyHat: okey ... of to take a look...
[06:58] <darkheart> funkyHat I'm not sure, but you can try running alsamixer and unmuting muted channels, just in case.
[06:58] <poisonerbg> i try to start X, but it take me error message "(S3) Ramdac probe failed", what mean that, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=57038
[06:58] <mib> LinuxJones, done.
[06:59] <selinium> bunniears: you could probably use ssh for quick command line control of you linux box
[06:59] <LinuxJones> mib, restart the cups service and see if it's listed in gnome-cups-admin
[06:59] <LinuxJones> mib, sorry gnome-cups-manager
[06:59] <funkyHat> darkheart, linukso, i've just installed e17 and switched over to it, i'm not complaining, i'm impressed :)
[06:59] <LinuxJones> mib, if not try adding it manually
[07:00] <linukso> funkyHat: great! Been waiting for month to try it, but haven't bothered untill now...
[07:01] <fraggsta> argh
[07:01] <fraggsta> I can't remove postfix
[07:01] <bjw> is it possible to boot from a usb hd?
[07:01] <darkheart> funkyHat Oh okay =) you gonna stick w/ e17? It's nice, but just hard to customize since it's still pre-release.
[07:01] <fraggsta> I can't reconfigure it, because it isn't running!
[07:01] <funkyHat> linukso, i'm struggling to find out how to change things like gtk themes :P
[07:01] <fraggsta> it's useless and I can't even get rid of it
[07:01] <funkyHat> darkheart, that's the problem i'm just discovering, how to customise stuff :P
[07:01] <mib> LinuxJones, It's not. I added it manually the last time... It says the printer is Ready. It suggested Postscript as the driver...
[07:01] <lamont> fraggsta: can't remove it because it fails to remove?
[07:01] <darkheart> funkyHat If you haven't come across it yet, http://get-e.org/ has good info.
[07:02] <lamont> fraggsta: how comfortable are you with an editor?
[07:02] <fraggsta> lamont: yes, the pre-removal script fails, though I have no idea why
[07:02] <LinuxJones> mib, the exact model was listed ?
[07:02] <fraggsta> lamont: I'm handy with vim, if that's what you mean..
[07:02] <lamont> it fails because it tries to stop the already-stopped postfix instance, and it doesn't ignore the error
[07:02] <dannyu502> Can anyone help me with this problem? Whenever I start Ubuntu, and it starts to load, it gets stuck on "Synchronizing clock to ntp.ubuntulinux.org"
[07:02] <lamont> fraggsta: yeah
[07:02] <lamont> vi /var/lib/dpkg/info/postfix.prerm
[07:02] <thoreauputic> dannyu502: hit ctrl-c
[07:02] <gilligan_> dannyu502, it will continue after some time
[07:03] <lamont> find the call to init.d/postfix stop, and add || true after it
[07:03] <gilligan_> dannyu502, its trying to contact some server but u prolly dont have inet at the time
[07:03] <dannyu502> gilligan: haha I left it on for 8 hours while I slept.
[07:03] <LinuxJones> mib, your printer is a Brother something ?
[07:03] <mib> LinuxJones: Yup. HL-5150D. If it helps the console keeps spitting out error messages, the most obviously useful being: "** (gnome-cups-manager:9765): WARNING **: failed request with status 1030
[07:03] <mib> Selected ppd file = foomatic-ppds/Brother/Brother-HL-5150D-Postscript.ppd.gz
[07:03] <mib> #
[07:04] <dannyu502> gillian: so what should I do to make it skip it?
[07:04] <linukso> funkyHat: sorry to bother you, but I cant find it in the wiki, have you got the link
[07:04] <selinium> anyone here use a bluetooth dongle they can recommend?
[07:04] <thoreauputic> dannyu502: if you want to disable it do  sudo update-rc.d ntpdate -f remove
[07:04] <fraggsta> lamont: that lets me reconfigure, but not remove it
[07:04] <funkyHat> sorry linukso, it was the forums not the wiki: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=46105
[07:04] <keith> hey guys- my synaptic says i have the hp drivers already installed.... yet it doesnt list any hp printers in open office
[07:05] <fraggsta> lamont: looks like there's a second line explicitly for removal that does the same check.  Fixed now, thanks!
[07:05] <linukso> funkyHat: great! thanks!
[07:05] <funkyHat> :)
[07:05] <dannyu502> thoreauputic: I would do that exept for I cant get to a shell because it doesnt load the rest of linux, it just gets stuck on that
[07:05] <lamont> fraggsta: yeah - I think there's a bug in bz about it, but I'll make sure - what version of postfix was it?
[07:05] <Davey|Work> OK, I have an issue, I have a Toshiba CD-RW/DVD drive in this box, its being detected as only a DVD drive, how can I solve this?
[07:06] <fraggsta> lamont: I'm not sure, and the line's long scrolled off as fetchmail disgorges 278 emails onto the machine..
[07:06] <Davey|Work> I really don't care about DVDs, all I need is the CD-RW part to work
[07:06] <thoreauputic> dannyu502: try booting in recovery mode from grub (hit escape, choose recovery)
[07:06] <thoreauputic> dannyu502: that should dum[p you at a root prompt
[07:06] <dannyu502> thoreauputic: I did. In recovery mode it also trys to the synchronize the clock and it gets stuck
[07:07] <thoreauputic> dannyu502: :(
[07:07] <thoreauputic> dannyu502: seems a bit weird...
[07:07] <dannyu502> thoreauputic: Lol. I know :-(.
[07:07] <LinuxJones> mib, the closes model to your printer is a HL5050 try selecting that model and trying again if that doesn't work maybe going to www.linuxprinting.org or searching google.
[07:07] <ionnek> hee -  thoreauputic doing recovery again :-)
[07:08] <dannyu502> thoreauputic: is there any way to make that clock not synchronize?
[07:08] <thoreauputic> ionnek: heh - on normal day I don't usually need to :)
[07:08] <selinium> hi thoreaputic!
[07:08] <ionnek> you really got me started with that!
[07:08] <thoreauputic> dannyu502: if you can't get a shell it's tricky
[07:08] <mib> LinuxJones, thanks. If that doesn't work I'll assume that it's a hardware problem. I just got the printer back from repair so it's possible that they simply haven't done their job...
[07:09] <Davey|Work> nobody?
[07:09] <dannyu502> thoreauputic: hmmmmmmmm
[07:09] <thoreauputic> dannyu502: I would boot from a live CD and try to chroot , then delete the script or disable it
[07:09] <ionnek> now at least i know that I have some massive dodgy logfiles in /var. just don't know how to find out which ones to delete.
[07:09] <thoreauputic> dannyu502: or just run the command I gave you before in a chroot
[07:09] <LinuxJones> mib, good luck :)
[07:09] <selinium> Anyone here use a bluetooth dongle they can recommend?
[07:10] <dannyu502> thoreauputic:  I have knoppix.... Is there anyway I can boot from that and disable the synchronization using sudo update-rc.d ntpdate -f remove
[07:10] <thoreauputic> dannyu502: do you know how to chroot ?
[07:10] <bunniears> hi again all :)
[07:10] <dannyu502> thoreauputic: no. I am kinda knew to linux
[07:10] <deacon> exit
[07:10] <thoreauputic> dannyu502: you mount the root partition, then do chroot /mount/point
[07:10] <deacon> whoops
[07:11] <charles> LinuxJones, worked great thanks
[07:11] <iiiears> cheroots - you smoke them right?
[07:11] <mib> LinuxJones: Thanks again!
[07:11] <thoreauputic> that gives you a shell
[07:11] <dannyu502> thoreauputic: ok
[07:11] <LinuxJones> charles, sweet :)
[07:11] <dannyu502> ok
[07:11] <bunniears> can someone suggest a webserver?
[07:11] <funkyHat> is there a notification area module for e17?
[07:11] <LinuxJones> mib, ;)
[07:11] <thoreauputic> dannyu502: from there you can run commands
[07:12] <popey> \o/ 40 ubuntu cds arrived in the post today \o/
[07:12] <popey> bunniears: apache?
[07:12] <bunniears> bilge, VNC works a treat :)
[07:12] <thoreauputic> dannyu502: ctrl-d  to escape the chroot IIRC
[07:12] <bunniears> thanks popey
[07:12] <dannyu502> thoreauputic: ok. But im still sort of confused as to how i would go about getting to the chroot.
[07:12] <popey> np
[07:12] <bunniears> could you tell me how to install it?
[07:12] <popey> bunniears: it's the "standard" webserver of choice on linux
[07:12] <bunniears> is it apt-get ?
[07:12] <popey> sudo apt-get install apache2
[07:12] <thoreauputic> dannyu502:  cd to the mount point
[07:12] <bunniears> thanks :)
[07:12] <popey> bunniears: apache or apache2
[07:13] <c0rrupt_> dos
[07:13] <popey> bunniears: I'd go for 2
[07:13] <bunniears> thanks :)
[07:13] <dannyu502> throeauputic: ok. I will try. I will be back if it doesn't work. Thanks alot for your help!
[07:13] <bunniears> installing now..
[07:13] <bunniears> done :)
[07:14] <thoreauputic> dannyu502: if you aren't too sure, google for "chroot linux rescue" or something like that
[07:14] <bunniears> popey: could you tell me how to install php please?
[07:16] <shammy> Is there a command that will activate and deactivate a connection like you would do in the networking app?
[07:16] <fraggsta> great, now the IMAP server is denying access to me while I'm sitting on the same machine
[07:16] <apokryphos> bunniears: install the php4 package
[07:16] <mougide> loiiioioiojkkjlo
[07:16] <apokryphos> shammy: ifup/ifdown
[07:17] <apokryphos> shammy: check the man pages for those
[07:17] <shammy> apokryphos, thank you
[07:17] <mougide> pffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffpppppppppppppppppppppppp
[07:17] <bunniears> thanks apokryphos
[07:17] <sartas> hey: what command to use if to remove a dir and everything in it?
[07:17] <fraggsta> is there anything I need to do having installed courier-imap-ssl to let myself connect to the server running on localhost?
[07:17] <Snopy> what are the minimum system requirements for ubuntu?
[07:17] <mougide> ubuntu is big shit !!!!!
[07:18] <Jester> why
[07:18] <apokryphos> mougide: what are you doing?
[07:18] <sartas> hey: what command to use if to remove a dir and everything in it?
[07:18] <Jester> ubuntu is teh g00d
[07:18] <shammy> sartas: rm
[07:18] <apokryphos> sartas: see man rm
[07:19] <bedi> rm -r for subdiretories
[07:19] <Poromies> Snopy: something like 256mb ram, 500mhz, 5gb hd space should run things smooth enough for everyday use I think
[07:19] <sartas> ok
[07:19] <sartas> thanks
[07:19] <carambol> sartas, sudo rm -rf  dir
[07:19] <funkyHat> right, i need somebody to write me a desktop environment with the functionality of gnome, the speed and looks of e17, and that is as easy to customise as KDE
[07:19] <Snopy> Poromies: thanx
[07:19] <Jester> when I see friendly answers like that it really doesn't feel like a debian based distro
[07:19] <funkyHat> who's going to do it?
[07:19] <EgilOfBorg> hello... I have an old laptop that wont read DVD's. I have downloaded the DVD image, and I have the LIVE CD image, but not the INSTALL CD image. I would prefer not to download the INSTALL CD image as well. Is it possible to install from the LIVE CD image, or is it possible to generate a INSTALL CD image from the DVD image?
[07:20] <apokryphos> funkyHat: it already exists: kde
[07:20] <bedi> Snopy: server mode installs the basic system
[07:20] <bunniears> apokryphos: installed php, went to http://localhost/testphp.php -> wants me to download the file ?
[07:20] <funkyHat> apokryphos, i want it to use gtk, not qt
[07:20] <funkyHat> ;
[07:20] <funkyHat> )
[07:20] <apokryphos> funkyHat: why?
[07:20] <funkyHat> cos i'm being awkward :P
[07:20] <Snopy> bedi: if i want irc. msn, office and mp3 support?
[07:20] <apokryphos> bunniears: have you installed apache?
[07:20] <funkyHat> kde doesn't look as good as e17 anyway :P
[07:21] <apokryphos> funkyHat: True. It looks better.
[07:21] <bunniears> apokryphos: yeah i installed apache2
[07:21] <sartas> is Thunderbird able to handle gmail accounts in any way?
[07:21] <apokryphos> bunniears: restart it after installing php
[07:21] <bedi> Snopy: to use whit X, you must to instal xserver-xorg and gnome-core  :)
[07:21] <apokryphos> bunniears: sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
[07:21] <bunniears> apokryphos: how do i do that :$ ?
[07:21] <bunniears> apokryphos, thanks ;OP
[07:21] <bunniears> :P *
[07:22] <Snopy> X what? hehe.. im a linux newb
[07:22] <apokryphos> sartas: of course, why not? GMail can use POP
[07:22] <sartas> what's the command to start a url in firefox?
[07:22] <sartas> ok, thanks apo ^^
[07:22] <bedi> Snopy: and a msn client en irc  client, a good text-mode irc client is issi(the best)  :)

[07:22] <sartas> i need to make a bookmark/link to be in the program bar at the top of the screen.. howto?
[07:23] <XandriX> LinuxJones, ok well time to test the abd cd theory
[07:23] <Snopy> bedi: so there is nothing pre-installed?
[07:23] <LinuxJones> XandriX, :)
[07:23] <bunniears> apokryphos: done that, still trying to make me download it.. it says this at the bottom: Apache/2.0.53 (Ubuntu) PHP/4.3.10-10ubuntu4 Server at localhost Port 80
[07:23] <XandriX> LinuxJones, xfs or jfs ?
[07:23] <bedi> Snopy: its all installed when you have a ubuntu cd :)
[07:23] <sartas> i need to make a bookmark/link to be in the program bar at the top of the screen.. howto?
[07:23] <bedi> Snopy: sorry my bad english =)
[07:23] <XandriX> LinuxJones, i love xfs
[07:23] <EgilOfBorg> hello... I have an old laptop that wont read DVD's. I have downloaded the DVD image, and I have the LIVE CD image, but not the INSTALL CD image. I would prefer not to download the INSTALL CD image as well. Is it possible to install from the LIVE CD image, or is it possible to generate a INSTALL CD image from the DVD image?
[07:23] <apokryphos> bunniears: hm, very weird.
[07:24] <LinuxJones> XandriX, I use ext3
[07:24] <bunniears> apokryphos: indeed XD.. i have to go for my tea now xx be back in a bit :)
[07:24] <XandriX> LinuxJones, oww comon atleast use reiser its soo much better lol
[07:24] <apokryphos> bunniears: it might be worth rebooting your comp just in case. It shouldn't be like this... should work straight away
[07:24] <LinuxJones> XandriX, I like reliability over speed :)
[07:25] <XandriX> LinuxJones, reiser is way reliable i use it on all my slack servers
[07:25] <XandriX> LinuxJones, xfs and jfs are nice to
[07:25] <sartas> wouldnt it be really neat to place a rss field in the panel on the top of the screen in gnome? is this possible?
[07:25] <Malice> Reiser4 is so broken for me
[07:25] <XandriX> xfs it is
[07:25] <ALoHa> Hello, when i try to install the game 'Trackballs' i get this error (after doing ./configure) 'configure: error: zlib should be included in most unix distributions, this is a strange error' How come i get this error

[07:27] <ALoHa> omg
[07:28] <XandriX> i meen ive ran ubunut in vmware for a while but now i thought its finaly time to test it on a real pc
[07:28] <Malice> meh, I don't use ubuntu
[07:28] <Malice> I'm a gentoo freak
[07:28] <Malice> lol
[07:28] <XandriX> my i ask wth ur doing here then ?
[07:28] <bedi> gento(wait building)oo
[07:28] <Malice> helping aloha with her problem

[07:29] <Malice> I have a dedicated binhost backup machine
[07:29] <XandriX> ok
[07:29] <Malice> it's all automated *shrug*
[07:29] <XandriX> i still dislike gentoo but atleast ur not running an rpm based distro eeeek
[07:30] <Jester> its a shame gentoo doesn't support binary package except with binhosts, its got the best package manager of linux
[07:30] <muffin_> hi
[07:30] <bedi> binhosts ?
[07:30] <Malice> well I have a dedicated cross-platform cross-compiling binhost (x86 & x86_64) set up now
[07:30] <Malice> which also does my web proxying
[07:30] <Malice> and caches my portage tree
[07:30] <bedi> i never heard about it 0_o
[07:30] <Malice> see its all quite nice
[07:30] <Jester> Malice, must be a pain to set up (distcc cross-compiler)
[07:30] <muffin_> do i have to mount my slave hd in the root console, every time i boot up?
[07:31] <dannyu502> Could anyone here help me set up wireless internet on Ubuntu? I was told to use ndiswrapper, but when i typed in apt-get install ndiswrapper, it as not found.
[07:31] <Malice> Jester it was :p
[07:31] <c0rrupt_> how do i set my time clock to 12 hour instead of 24
[07:31] <funkyHat> :(. e17 is very nice, but too much hassle to change anything *back to gnome*
[07:31] <hotxSAUCE> why would u want a computer to be a web proxy... why not use a router.. it is cheaper in electric usage
[07:31] <Malice> hotxSAUCE: I have a router, it's just very cheap
[07:31] <c0rrupt_> how do i set my time clock to 12 hour instead of 24
[07:31] <hotxSAUCE> cheap in what sense?
[07:31] <Jester> Malice, heh I'm also a gentoo freak ;) but for my server only, ubuntu is the best of the bests for a desktop
[07:31] <bedi> c0rrupt_: gnome ?
[07:31] <c0rrupt_> kubuntu
[07:31] <c0rrupt_> kde
[07:31] <leop> anyone here on a Mac get Firewire working in Ubuntu?
[07:32] <Malice> Jester: maybe if you install portage on it :p
[07:32] <shammy> Is there any message in a log somewhere created when I lose a wireless connection?
[07:32] <dannyu502> Could anyone here help me set up wireless internet on Ubuntu? I was told to use ndiswrapper, but when i typed in apt-get install ndiswrapper, it as not found.
[07:32] <muffin_> how do i mount hds in gnome outside the root console?
[07:32] <Malice> hotxSAUCE: it doesn't even have a http interface

[07:33] <dannyu502> Could anyone here help me set up wireless internet on Ubuntu? I was told to use ndiswrapper, but when i typed in apt-get install ndiswrapper, it as not found.
[07:33] <hotxSAUCE> it consume so little electric
[07:33] <Malice> hotxSAUCE: because I like doing stuff the hard way either, and electricity doesn't really cost anything anyway
[07:33] <c0rrupt_> ive been through the options
[07:33] <c0rrupt_> meh
[07:33] <hotxSAUCE> malice electric cost a lot compare to a router
[07:33] <bedi> gnome have that option =D
[07:33] <dannyu502> Could anyone here help me set up wireless internet on Ubuntu? I was told to use ndiswrapper, but when i typed in apt-get install ndiswrapper, it was not found.

[07:37] <iiiears> bedi - it isn't too unusual. breezy badger isn't ready for release. (didn't work for me either.)
[07:37] <Malice> the QoS entries to give priority to portage did help alot though, or it'd be crazy slow sometimes

[07:55] <hotxSAUCE> dont bother with d/l and burn
[07:55] <apokryphos> bunniears: chmod 666 -R /var/www is better -- recursive
[07:55] <Kyral> hotxSAUCE, I'd rather DL and burn
[07:55] <Seveas> bunniears, install libapache2-mod-php4
[07:55] <bunniears> apokryphos: thanks ill do that
[07:55] <Kyral> then again, I ahve like 50 blank DVDs

[07:56] <Kyral> GAH! The BFG9000!!
[07:56] <topyli> Seveas: this is better than #ubuntu-newbies could be: this is also #friends-of-newbies so that newbies actually can get help :-)
[07:56] <Kyral> that was mean!
[07:56] <Seveas> topyli, we actually prefer not to use the word newbie
[07:57] <rosa> anybody can tell me if i can add edubuntu or kubuntu to the grub without erasing my running ubuntu
[07:57] <Mez> hmm... can anyone help me with setting up my wireless card
[07:57] <bunniears> Seveas: libapache2-mod-php4 is already the newest version.
[07:57] <topyli> Seveas: #ubuntu says it all anyway
[07:57] <Seveas> bunniears, ls -al /etc/apache2/mods-enabled
[07:57] <Kyral> Seveas, I'm gonna be in #ubuntu-newbies for a while. I prefer to help in small sessions
[07:57] <Seveas> does that list php4?
[07:57] <bedi> rosa: when you HD is partitioned thats easy to make
[07:58] <VooDoo> good evening
[07:58] <hopeng> good evening
[07:58] <gilligan_> is it safe to upgrade from debian sid -> hoary ?
[07:58] <knowledge> Good afternoon
[07:58] <apokryphos> gilligan_: not really, but possible
[07:58] <bunniears> Seveas: done that
[07:58] <phayded> i need help, i installed apache, php4, and mysql.  My php install didnt have the flag --with-mysql[DIR] .  How do i go back and add the config to make php and mysql work threw apache?
[07:59] <Seveas> does that list php4? <-- bunniears
[07:59] <bunniears> Seveas: lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root   37 2005-08-16 18:18 php4.conf -> /etc/apache2/mods-available/php4.conf
[07:59] <bunniears> lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root   37 2005-08-16 18:18 php4.load -> /etc/apache2/mods-available/php4.load
[07:59] <knowledge> Ok, I reinstalled ubuntu for the millionth time....and now I can't seem to browse windows network...anyone know what can be done?
[07:59] <Seveas> hmm
[07:59] <topyli> gilligan_: no, breezy could work
[07:59] <dannyu502> seveas: yeah but I am on windows right now, so if i save it as winmac_fstab then i wont b able to access it from linux because my windows partition will not be mounted yet. and i cant go online to get the script because thats the whole point of me doing this, to set up my WLAN on ubuntu.
[07:59] <Mez> how do i install the ndis wrapper under linux
[07:59] <Seveas> did you restart apache after installing the mod?
[08:00] <topyli> gilligan_: but then, that would be like running experimental
[08:00] <Seveas> meze HowtoSetupNdiswrapper @ eiki
[08:00] <Seveas> Mez*
[08:00] <Mez> ty.
[08:01] <hopeng> is ubuntu supports energy saving? like automaticly turn off hardisk if not used etc.
[08:01] <dannyu502> seveas: yeah but I am on windows right now, so if i save it as winmac_fstab then i wont b able to access it from linux because my windows partition will not be mounted yet. and i cant go online to get the script because thats the whole point of me doing this, to set up my WLAN on ubuntu. So how shouldn i go about saving this?
[08:01] <topyli> hopeng: what kind of machine is that?
[08:02] <Seveas> dannyu502, hehe, any option to use a usb stick?
[08:02] <dannyu502> ahhahaha
[08:02] <hopeng> topyli, its workstation machine for everyday use, my ubuntu is turns off my monitor if not used for a while. but i dont know about the hardisks
[08:02] <Seveas> shit
[08:03] <Seveas> wrong channel :S
[08:03] <barosl> ...
[08:03] <knowledge> lol
[08:03] <Blue-Omega> lol
[08:03] <mushroom_linux_c> ...
[08:03] <knowledge> I was like what the?
[08:03] <nevin> good job
[08:03] <hetzz_> :|
[08:03] <barosl> will you ban everyone? :P
[08:03] <topyli> hopeng: the disks won't turn off whenever you use a journaling filesystem. they are accessed every few seconds for the journaling
[08:03] <mushroom_linux_c> bad word
[08:03] <cut0ff_> hopeng check out your xorg config file
[08:03] <Seveas> sorry sorry sorry....
[08:03] <dannyu502> seveas: ahhaha what should I try to do now?
[08:03] <topyli> hopeng: if you want that, you need to remove the journaling
[08:03] <knowledge> anyone know what's up with my problem?
[08:03] <phayded> how do i add mysql after already installed php4.
[08:03] <hopeng> topyli, how ?
[08:04] <dannyu502> seveas: Lol, and dont tell me to manually right down the whole script then type it back in in ubuntu.
[08:04] <cut0ff_> hopeng sorry I'm wrong
[08:04] <Seveas> dannyu502, so no usb stick ?
[08:04] <dannyu502> nope
[08:04] <yoz> Seveas, thanks alot.. fixed the photo thingie. there is another issue here on my laptop.. When I boot it just freezes after logging in.. after I enter username password nothing happens.. after I kill the ssh-agent it finally boots into gnome. any cue?
[08:04] <hopeng> thx cut0ff_
[08:04] <topyli> hopeng: ubuntu uses the journaling ext3 by default. you can switch to non-journaling ext2 without reformatting
[08:04] <FunnyLookinHat> Anyone here gotten the liveCD (Hoary) to work with an IBM T43?
[08:04] <booger> phayded: try synaptic search for mysql
[08:04] <Seveas> yoz, hmm...
[08:04] <topyli> hopeng: i'll find the magic command :)
[08:04] <yoz> Seveas, I reinstalled it twice..
[08:05] <Seveas> if you can live without it, remove ssh-agend from /etc/gdm/XSession (oslt)
[08:05] <hopeng> topyli, does journaling thingy have side effects on damaging the hardisk due to always on ?
[08:05] <bl0w3r> bedi: whats happen here?
[08:05] <Stompey00> que. I bought a diamond supra express modem from a friend to use in hoary. Will i need a driver for it to work or can anyone supply an external modem that does work
[08:05] <Seveas> dannyu502, then remember this line:
[08:05] <dannyu502> ok
[08:05] <yoz> Seveas, I did.. I removed it from Xsession.d and it still freezes..
[08:05] <topyli> hopeng: no, it's good for the filesystem and therefore good for your data
[08:05] <Seveas> sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/hda1 /mnt -o umask=0000
[08:06] <booger> phayded: it's called mysql-server
[08:06] <bedi> bl0w3r: uh ?
[08:06] <bunniears> apokryphos: im going to try restart
[08:06] <topyli> hopeng: also, the disk actually suffers more from the constant turning off and restarting
[08:06] <hopeng> topyli, but not good for energy consumption :p
[08:06] <yoz> Seveas, I do kill the pid with ssh-agent but it's a whole line there.. if you check your own..
[08:06] <topyli> hopeng: oh yeah
[08:06] <hopeng> topyli, o yeah? i didnt know that!
[08:06] <apokryphos> bunniears: ok
[08:06] <yoz> Seveas, I removed it from Xsession.d and still the same..
[08:06] <booger> phayded: then I would go and get phpmyadmin
[08:06] <Seveas> yoz, what do you need to kill now for your session to work?
[08:06] <Seveas> still ssh-agent?
[08:06] <hopeng> topyli, thx for the infos.. !
[08:06] <topyli> hopeng: i wonder if the disk uses more energy when starting up from sleep
[08:06] <DarkSSJ> hi all
[08:07] <hopeng> topyli, like the air conditioner ? that uses more energy wheeen starting
[08:07] <dannyu502> Seveas: Ok. I wrote it down. What will that do?
[08:07] <topyli> hopeng: journaling is also good for your data, because the filesystem will recover from power failures and crashes better
[08:07] <yoz> Seveas, the pid including ssh-agent on loading gnome. but it's a complex command there not ssh-agent only.
[08:07] <yoz> Seveas, just to a ps aux | grep ssh-agent on your machine to check
[08:07] <Seveas> yoz, hmm, can you paste the complete command?
[08:07] <deacon> Ok, having a bit of an issue, hopefully someone can help me here
[08:07] <topyli> hopeng: perhaps the same as the air conditioner. but i don't know
[08:08] <hopeng> i usualy listen to winamp that sounding all my 5.1 altec lansing. how to do it in ubuntu xmms ?
[08:08] <Seveas> yoz, hmm, I modified my Xsession quite heavily :)
[08:08] <yoz> Seveas, I could but I'd have to login again. wait a moment..
[08:08] <dannyu502> Seveas: Ok. I wrote it down. What will that do?
[08:08] <Thunder00> hello. can anyone guide me on how to configure intel pro/wireless 2200BG for a laptop?
[08:08] <Seveas> that will mount your drive under /mnt
[08:08] <dannyu502> ok
[08:09] <deacon> I would like to be able to mount a Windows Share in /mnt so that Amarok can create a playlist with it and thusly stream across my network
[08:09] <dannyu502> and then i can access
[08:09] <Seveas> then you will go to /mnt/windows somewhere and look for the .inf
[08:09] <dannyu502> it
[08:09] <topyli> hopeng: but i'm no expert on power issues. i just care about that the system is up and hardware doesn't break :)
[08:09] <dannyu502> alright thanks seveas
[08:09] <hopeng> so... does Vista will struct big time on Linux kernel ? :p
[08:09] <dannyu502> im going to log into ubuntu and try it... i will be back if i have andy throuble... THANKS ALOT!!!
[08:09] <dannyu502> any*
[08:09] <deacon> Seveas, could you send me that command?
[08:09] <Seveas> see you soon ;)
[08:10] <hopeng> topyli, lol.. i 80% care about data.. but 20% i care about damaging hardisk due to always on
[08:10] <topyli> hopeng: i hear that Vista will have many of the new goodies we already enjoy :)
[08:10] <dannyu502> seaveas: hahahahha
[08:10] <Seveas> deacon: Download and run http://www.ubuntulinux.nl/files/winmac_fstab to make your windows and mac partions mount automatically
[08:10] <yoz> Seveas, /usr/bin/ssh-agent /usr/bin/dbus-launch --exit-with-session x-session-manager
[08:10] <Seveas> riiiiigggghhhhht
[08:10] <yoz> Seveas, I have to restart gdm twice or 3 times.. then I kill this line and it starts fine.
[08:10] <deacon> Thank you kind sir, I shal try that!
[08:10] <topyli> hopeng: well, don't take my word for anything. there's an "energy saving howto" or something like that at tldp.org
[08:11] <yoz> Seveas, if not I have the brown ubuntu screen and nothing happens after entering user and pass
[08:11] <reiki> getting ready to order upgrade parts for my old Pentium 3 computer... any known issues with Gigabyte motherboards? Or GeForce6200TC graphics cards in PCIexpress slots? motherboard/CPU/RAM/power supply/graphics card is about all I'm changing out I think.
[08:11] <topyli> hopeng: or maybe "environment howto" or whatever. it's good reading
[08:11] <c0rrupt_> Seveas, are the multi-universe repos safe?
[08:11] <hopeng> topyli, but im impressed to my trusty 2years old & heavy use of 40gb quantum hdd. its windows. but now im resting it, coz ubuntu on maxtor 120gb (a little badsector lol) is always up and runnin
[08:12] <Seveas> c0rrupt_, multiverse is safe
[08:12] <Seveas> if you look at the pastebin: all uncommented sources are safe
[08:12] <c0rrupt_> ok
[08:12] <yoz> Seveas, any clue here?
[08:12] <Seveas> yoz, ooking for one
[08:12] <Seveas> looking*
[08:12] <c0rrupt_> !tell c0rrupt_ about repos
[08:12] <ionnek> anyone knows about the "log" folder in /var? My system constantly makes massive logfiles and i'd like to find out why.
[08:12] <yoz> Seveas, I do appriciate alot.
[08:12] <knowledge> anyone nkow how I can access my windows network?
[08:13] <knowledge> I can't find anything on google
[08:13] <topyli> hopeng: i have two disks. the other is for backups. it's never mounted except at backup time, and it turns off in about 15 mins (you can set that in the bios)
[08:13] <Seveas> yoz, you moved /etc/X11/Xsession.d/90xorg-common_ssh-agent out of the way?
[08:13] <topyli> hopeng: the trick is not to mount rarely used disks
[08:13] <reiki> I have a CUSL2C asus motherboard. It only sees a bit over 84gigs of my 160gb hard drive. Isn't that a weird cutoff? I though bios limit was 137gb on older bios versions?
[08:13] <hopeng> topyli, shit i always mount the windows hdd
[08:13] <Seveas> knowledge, places -> connect to server
[08:14] <agraupe> how can I specify for my network card to get a specific IP address?  DHCP was enabled by default during the install (it's just a broadband router, so there's a bunch of free IP addresses)
[08:14] <Seveas> hopeng, that's perfectly fine
[08:14] <topyli> hopeng: if you rarely need it, you might want to mount it manually when needed
[08:14] <b3d1> what is binhosts ?
[08:14] <yoz> Seveas, I did.. but moved it back since I noticed it doesn't work this way.
[08:14] <knowledge> Seveas: not working
[08:14] <hopeng> topyli, my whole mp3 is in there haha. so i kindda use it all the time.
[08:15] <Seveas> yoz, hmm odd, does it still start when you move it..?
[08:15] <Mez> Seveas, I'm getting this
[08:15] <Mez> FATAL: Error inserting ndiswrapper (/lib/modules/2.6.12-6-386/kernel/drivers/net/ndiswrapper/ndiswrapper.ko): Operation not permitted
[08:15] <topyli> hopeng: but it's not a journaling filesystem
[08:15] <Seveas> Mez, sudo
[08:15] <Mez> with sudo
[08:15] <yoz> Seveas, actually not but it doesn't work anyway..
[08:15] <Mianwalian> Hello
[08:15] <Seveas> then upgrade to -686 or -k7
[08:15] <Mez> mez@apathy:~/.point2play/Temp/c_drive/windows/inf$ sudo modprobe ndiswrapper
[08:15] <Mez> FATAL: Error inserting ndiswrapper (/lib/modules/2.6.12-6-386/kernel/drivers/net/ndiswrapper/ndiswrapper.ko): Operation not permitted
[08:15] <Mianwalian> Anyone here
[08:15] <yoz> Seveas, no clue what effect it has..
[08:15] <Mianwalian> to help me
[08:15] <Mianwalian> ?
[08:15] <Seveas> yoz, hmm...
[08:15] <yoz> Seveas, as mentioned.. it work only if I restart gdm twice or so..
[08:15] <Seveas> I must say that the clue is getting thin
[08:16] <yoz> Seveas, after restarting it and killing it's pid it works .
[08:16] <Mez> Seveas - that should make it work?
[08:16] <Seveas> yoz, did you try removing ~/.Xauthority and ~/.ICEauthority?
[08:16] <knowledge> when I go to "windows network" it doesn't show anything there
[08:16] <hopeng> topyli, yeah i oftenly noticed that it takes time to starts mp3 on hdd windows when i got home from office. think it turned off
[08:16] <Seveas> Mez, I've seen cases where -386 wouldn't work
[08:16] <Mianwalian> seveas bro, i m using ubuntu live cd version linux, and when i run it, i corrupted my windows display drivers. Whats the remedy for this problem
[08:16] <yoz> Seveas, nope.. how would I dod that
[08:16] <Mez> Seveas, cool, lets hope k7 works
[08:17] <Mez> cause itf it dont I dont have net
[08:17] <Mianwalian> i m on intel x86
[08:17] <deacon> Ok, now I feel like a complete twit.  How exactly do I run the winmac_fstab file??
[08:17] <Seveas> Mianwalian, the live cd does nothing with the disks, so that is impossible...
[08:17] <topyli> hopeng: probably
[08:17] <Seveas> yoz, login at the termianl and remove those files
[08:17] <Mianwalian> Seveas bro believe me
[08:17] <yoz> Seveas, ok.. lemme try!
[08:18] <Mianwalian> this has happened
[08:18] <hopeng> does live cd use memory to save all data? and never use hdd as a temp ?
[08:18] <Mianwalian> my winxp
[08:18] <zAo^> Seveas, how was thay "terminal client" applet called? :) (on KDE...)
[08:18] <Seveas> darkheart, the word n00b is considered foul language in here :)
[08:18] <DanteAlighieri> Newbs are different than n00bs, darkheart....
[08:18] <Seveas> zAo^, konsole?
[08:18] <XandriX> LinuxJones, i found the problem my cdrom drives led is dirty as hell
[08:18] <Mianwalian> is unable to to show any screen after
[08:18] <Mianwalian> runiing scan disk
[08:18] <zAo^> Seveas, lol, no for remote desktops
[08:18] <QMario> Is gedit available for Windows?
[08:18] <theeil> my computer hangs during the install at some point every time i try and hangs after about 30 seconds on the boot prompt if i am not done yet
[08:18] <Seveas> zAo^, ah, tsclient
[08:18] <knowledge> this is starting to blow
[08:18] <yoz> Seveas, gonna reboot and check what happens..
[08:18] <yoz> Seveas, thanks alot this far!
[08:18] <QMario> Hello Seveas.
[08:18] <Seveas> QMario, I doubt it
[08:18] <deacon> rofl@darkheart
[08:19] <hopeng> QMario, lol u loves gedit?
[08:19] <QMario> Yes.
[08:19] <zAo^> Seveas, thanks :)
[08:19] <QMario> I have a dual-boot system.
[08:19] <Seveas> Mianwalian, I cannot believe it since the Ubuntu livecd simply does not even touch the harddisk...
[08:19] <hopeng> QMario, get notepad2 for wind0ze
[08:19] <QMario> I like gedit, because it is good for programming.
[08:19] <fraggsta> hey guys, let's have a discussion about text editors in a Linux channel!
[08:19] <Seveas> QMario, try editpad on windows
[08:19] <fraggsta> that couldn't possibly end badly
[08:19] <QMario> Notepad is terrible. :(
[08:19] <decaf> theeil: try the tool at memtest.org, come back if memory chips pass
[08:19] <Seveas> editpad pro costs money but is good
[08:19] <deacon> rofl@fraggsta
[08:20] <hopeng> QMario, notepad2 is sufficient for programming and its free
[08:20] <Seveas> !start an editor war
[08:20] <ubotu> gedit is better than emacs
[08:20] <QMario> Seveas, "real" money?
[08:20] <deacon> Vi!!
[08:20] <Seveas> QMario, yes
[08:20] <morbidi> ubotu: ?
[08:20] <ubotu> morbidi: I haven't a clue
[08:20] <fraggsta> more like Vim!
[08:20] <darkheart> jEdit is pretty nice.
[08:20] <hopeng> QMario, i meant "notepad2" not "notepad", google it
[08:20] <morbidi> uhhh
[08:20] <morbidi> don't start editors wars
[08:20] <Seveas> :)
[08:21] <morbidi> everyone knows that vim can't be beaten
[08:21] <morbidi> :P
[08:21] <Seveas> morbidi, ...
[08:21] <decaf> darkheart: jedit has a problem with turkish local settings (also netbeans) so I can't use it.
[08:21] <Seveas> !start a desktop war
[08:21] <morbidi> j/k
[08:21] <ubotu> cde is much better than kde!
[08:21] <hopeng> gnome rox !
[08:21] <fraggsta> you are right!
[08:21] <deacon> I'm rather fond of Kate
[08:21] <morbidi> who does need a editor anyways ?
[08:21] <Seveas> Kate is nice
[08:21] <deacon> Kiss me Kate!
[08:21] <morbidi> you've got
[08:21] <Seveas> Almost all editors are nice
[08:21] <knowledge> ok, well when someone can help me, let me know, I really need to get files from my desktop
[08:21] <hopeng> morbidi, an xhtml & css editor ?
[08:21] <morbidi> kate, joe, pico, vim, emacs, nano
[08:21] <darkheart> decaf Didn't know that =)
[08:21] <morbidi> hopeng: what ever
[08:22] <fraggsta> except emacs
[08:22] <hopeng> lmao
[08:22] <topyli> i just edit files with Word under wine as root and then save text files
[08:22] <morbidi> those editors do the job
[08:22] <theeil> can you copy an iso to floppy (how?)
[08:22] <fraggsta> that's never anything other than horrible
[08:22] <apokryphos> !start an editor war
[08:22] <ubotu> kwrite is better than emacs
[08:22] <c0rrupt_> Trme aus rotem Gold, kalt wie das Eis.
[08:22] <QMario> Hopeng and Seveas, thank you! Hee hee! ;)
[08:22] <Seveas> knowledge, I must have missed tihe orig. question
[08:22] <Seveas> repeat it please
[08:22] <morbidi> !end an editor war
[08:22] <ubotu> I haven't a clue, morbidi
[08:22] <deacon> Actually, I still have a question Seveas
[08:22] <deacon> Ok, now I feel like a complete twit.  How exactly do I run the winmac_fstab file??
[08:22] <Seveas> ah, shoot...
[08:22] <Seveas> :)
[08:22] <morbidi> ubotu: use one of the list I gave
[08:22] <ubotu> I haven't a clue, morbidi
[08:22] <Seveas> sudo bash winmac_fstab
[08:23] <Seveas> morbidi, ubotu is a bot
[08:23] <fraggsta> someone asking about HTML editors?
[08:23] <morbidi> ohh
[08:23] <fraggsta> bluefish, iirc
[08:23] <deacon> bash: winmac_fstab: No such file or directory
[08:23] <QMario> Seveas, how do I create an icon for a program?
[08:23] <Seveas> did you save it as winmac_fstab in the current directory?
[08:23] <deacon> and I'm IN the directory I saved the file in
[08:23] <Seveas> QMario, which program?
[08:23] <deacon> and yes
[08:23] <hopeng> bluefish's php syntax pattern only can read <?php , not <?
[08:24] <QMario> Seveas, the one I made.
[08:24] <Seveas> hopeng, that's GOOD
[08:24] <morbidi> hopeng: vim suports php
[08:24] <Seveas> QMario, smeg is a menu editor
[08:24] <Seveas> !smeg
[08:24] <ubotu> hmm... smeg is a Simple Menu Editor for GNOME. Get it at http://www.realistanew.com/projects/smeg/ or from backports.
[08:24] <deacon> brb
[08:24] <QMario> !icon
[08:24] <ubotu> QMario: I don't know, could you explain it?
[08:24] <QMario> !Botsnack
[08:24] <ubotu> :)
[08:24] <yoz> Seveas, *sigh* I had to restart gdm 3 times again and kill the ssh-agent line..
[08:24] <Seveas> :|
[08:25] <hopeng> Seveas, i spent lots of hours to figure out why my php line wont coloured, i reinstall GKT and things,... and i noticed the silly problem, i delete <?php on syntax and use <? lol its coloured now !
[08:25] <deacon> back
[08:25] <yoz> Seveas, I really have no idea..
[08:25] <Seveas> hopeng, using <? for php is bad
[08:25] <yoz> but now it makes me sick.
[08:25] <hopeng> Seveas, shit i used it for years, tell me why ?
[08:25] <vitriol> how do you know what inf file you need to supply ndiswrapper?
[08:26] <vitriol> lspci says my wireless card is a broadcom
[08:26] <Seveas> <? is used in xml as generic processing instruction
[08:26] <vitriol> but it doesn't specify which one
[08:26] <Seveas> <?php is the proper start tag
[08:26] <hopeng> ic
[08:26] <Seveas> all php docs say it :)
[08:26] <vitriol> Network controller: Broadcom Corporation: Unknown device 4318
[08:26] <Seveas> vitriol, all broadcom wifi cards are bad, you need ndiswrapper
[08:26] <Seveas> use the windows2000 driver for your card
[08:27] <vitriol> Seveas: i know. i don't know which inf file i need to supply ndiswrapper
[08:27] <c0rrupt_> Seveas, why 2000 o.0
[08:27] <hopeng> haha ok ill use it from now on and dont worry ill add /* by Seveas */ after my <?php
[08:27] <Seveas> (it's probably on the cd that came with it)
[08:27] <vitriol> oh! i didn't think to try the cd
[08:27] <Seveas> c0rrupt_, XP drivers notoriously caus problems for some cards
[08:27] <deacon> Ok, that Winmac_Fstab file still won't run.
[08:27] <c0rrupt_> ok
[08:27] <c0rrupt_> i used xp
[08:27] <c0rrupt_> seems to work fine
[08:27] <c0rrupt_> rtl8180
[08:27] <yoz> Seveas, any other suggestion?
[08:27] <vitriol> but i currently don't have the right broadcom inf file either :)
[08:28] <jbn> Hello people. Anyone have quick fix for an apt that gives me 'bus error'?
[08:28] <jbn> *have a
[08:28] <Seveas> yoz, restart, login, and don't kill ssh-agent but paste the output of ps f -e on the pastebin
[08:28] <hopeng> anyone here have tried to install OS X on non mac system ?
[08:28] <c0rrupt_> use chocolate
[08:28] <Seveas> jbn, bus error means faulty memory or buggy program
[08:28] <siwy> hi all
[08:28] <yoz> Seveas, ok.. here we go..
[08:28] <Seveas> given that apt is stable and does not cause bus errors, check your memory
[08:29] <deacon> ok, Nevermind.  Apparently I'm more of a twit than I realized.  I was NOT in the correct directory.  Sorry, my bad.
[08:29] <deacon> It's working now
[08:29] <jbn> Seveas, that's bothersome. But thanks for the heads up.
[08:29] <MFen> anyone have subversion 1.2 debs?
[08:29] <MFen> for hoary..
[08:29] <Nemlah> hello all
[08:29] <MFen> i'm trying to compile it from sources in badger, but it i have a problem
[08:29] <Nemlah> i have one quick question
[08:29] <MFen> * subversion requires apache2-prefork-dev
[08:29] <vitriol> how do you get badger?
[08:30] <vitriol> just update sources.list?
[08:30] <Nemlah> when is the next ubuntu release due?
[08:30] <MFen> * apache2-prefork-dev requires libtool (>=1.5)
[08:30] <crimsun> Nemlah: October
[08:30] <vitriol> or do you have to do something else too
[08:30] <hopeng> i wonder why gentoo fans larger than ubuntu ? i never tried gentoo os tho
[08:30] <Nemlah> thanks
[08:30] <Nemlah> have fun
[08:30] <deacon> Thanks Seveas
[08:30] <theeil> can you use dd to burn an iso to floppy?
[08:30] <MFen> * subversion requires libtool (< 1.5)
[08:30] <Nemlah> and thanks for ubuntu..
[08:30] <Nemlah> :)
[08:30] <crimsun> vitriol: Breezy has a kernel issue at the moment; please don't dist-upgrade.
[08:30] <MFen> so, has anyone built the debs?
[08:30] <vitriol> crimsun: kernel issues such as?
[08:30] <crimsun> vitriol: if you use lvm, you will not be able to boot.
[08:30] <darkheart> theeil Burn an iso to floppy? You mean 600 floppies?
[08:31] <vitriol> crimsun: i don't use the generic x86 kernel and i don't use lvm either
[08:31] <Seveas> MFen, soon
[08:31] <setite> !limewire
[08:31] <ubotu> I guess limewire is at http://ubuntuguide.org/#limewire
[08:31] <theeil> darkheart: it's 40 some KB
[08:31] <vitriol> !breezy
[08:31] <ubotu> breezy is, like, the next version of Ubuntu (5.10); released October 2005. It can and will be broken, and can damage your system. Differences between Hoary & Breezy: http://members.home.nl/jeroen-91/ubuntu/breezy-new/
[08:31] <MFen> Seveas: you're building it now?
[08:31] <topyli> vitriol: it's not ready i just upgraded one box today, and it doesn't seem ready for production yet
[08:31] <darkheart> theeil And it's an iso file?
[08:32] <vitriol> topyli: does it use kernel 2.6.12?
[08:32] <hotxSAUCE> amule is on the same network as dc++ right?
[08:32] <topyli> vitriol: yes
[08:32] <Seveas> MFen, ah, won't work on a hoary system...
[08:32] <vitriol> my ati chipset is better supported in that kernel
[08:32] <theeil> darkheart: yes (right now .iso.gz)
[08:32] <vitriol> topyli: thats why i'm considering upgrading
[08:32] <MFen> Seveas: :(
[08:32] <deacon> Ok, Next question...
[08:32] <Seveas> sorry
[08:32] <MFen> don't tease me like that
[08:32] <darkheart> hotxSAUCE aMule uses the donkey network. What does DC++ use?
[08:32] <topyli> vitriol: upgrade the kernel rather
[08:32] <vitriol> topyli: there's no 2.6.12 kernel in hoary
[08:33] <vitriol> topyli: only 2.6.10.x and 2.6.11.x
[08:33] <bodhi> when i try to upgrade my hoary, some packages are blocked
[08:33] <topyli> vitriol: no, you'd have to roll your own
[08:33] <Seveas> vitriol, only 2.6.10
[08:33] <darkheart> theeil What exactly is it? I'm not sure what the outcome would be of a dd..I guess it would work though, something to try.
[08:33] <deacon> How do I get my NETWORKED windows shares to show up.  IE: those that are shared out on a Windows PC elsewhere on my network?
[08:33] <Seveas> 2.6.11 haory packages are not meant to be used
[08:33] <vitriol> Seveas: i'm running a 2.6.11 kernel in hoary
[08:33] <Seveas> 2.6.11 haory packages are not meant to be used <--
[08:33] <theeil> darkheart: memtest bootable
[08:33] <Seveas> they are broken and known to be buggy
[08:33] <vitriol> Linux solstice 2.6.11-1-amd64-k8 #1 Fri Feb 11 14:45:56 UTC 2005 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[08:34] <vitriol> Seveas: this kernel is working *very* well for me
[08:34] <darkheart> theeil Yeah, I guess try it. Don't forget to untar it first.
[08:34] <vitriol> Seveas: it fixed my DMA issues
[08:34] <MFen> hey, the new service manager in badger looks cool
[08:34] <Seveas> vitriol, you're in luck then :)
[08:34] <hotxSAUCE> what happen to the guy who made linux??? is he super rich now?
[08:34] <vitriol> Seveas: yeah :)
[08:34] <Seveas> MFen, yeah, it's nice
[08:34] <theeil> darkheart: i don't really know how to use dd tho...
[08:34] <Seveas> hotxSAUCE, he's still working on it and not that rich
[08:34] <vitriol> !breezy upgrade
[08:34] <ubotu> NO SPEAKE ENLISH!, vitriol
[08:34] <Seveas> osdl.org/~torvalds/
[08:34] <yoz> Seveas, I did.. http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl/1304
[08:34] <Seveas> hmm
[08:35] <deacon> hotxSAUCE, that would be Linux Torvalds.  He works for OSDN labs now, and is well of, but not super rich'
[08:35] <darkheart> theeil Well, that's something you'll have to look up =) try 'man dd' and googling info for it.
[08:35] <hopeng> inf: ubuntu is eeeeviiiiil <--- on #gentoo
[08:35] <deacon> err, Linus.
[08:35] <hopeng> lol
[08:35] <deacon> doh
[08:35] <farsawoos> http://www.purepwnage.com
[08:35] <darkheart> theeil It's pretty simple in concept, but there are a lot of switches you can use with the dd command.
[08:35] <fraggsta> Linux == Communism.  Discuss.

[08:36] <Seveas> fraggsta, highly offtopic in here

[08:36] <Kyral> sorry
[08:36] <Seveas> deacon, ...
[08:36] <topyli> MS = capitalism. do not discuss
[08:36] <deacon> sorry.
[08:36] <rosa> somebody can tell me how to check my cpu temperature : hddtemp.?
[08:36] <hopeng> lol hotxSAUCE
[08:36] <fraggsta> rosa: lmsensors and xsensors
[08:36] <hopeng> hotxSAUCE: why is ubuntu evil ? <-- on #gentoo
[08:37] <Seveas> rosa, gkrellm+gdesklets are a nice interface to it
[08:37] <yoz> Seveas, anything strange there?
[08:37] <Seveas> rosa, otherwise prowse through /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/
[08:37] <Random_Sindrom> 9
[08:37] <Random_Sindrom> kli9uoi
[08:37] <deacon> Hoestly, I really do want to know how I can mount a windows smb network share under /mnt so Amarok can stream the files.
[08:37] <Random_Sindrom> 89988888888888888888888888888888888888
[08:38] <luis_> Good Afternoon Everyone...  Is it possible someone could lend me a hand with installing an RPM file?
[08:38] <MFen> !
[08:38] <apokryphos> Random_Sindrom: you are indeed sooo random
[08:38] <fraggsta> as long as your motherboard has lmsensors supported drivers, it's pretty nice
[08:38] <Kyral> I hit the wrong button
[08:38] <apokryphos> :|
[08:38] <bunniears> apokryphos: figured it out lol
[08:38] <Seveas> deacon, places -> connect to server or places -> network should work
[08:38] <fraggsta> though I can't trust my board's sensors (I think they're very inaccurate)
[08:38] <apokryphos> bunniears: cool, what was it?
[08:38] <stratovarius> hey
[08:38] <bunniears> apokryphos: well i tried going to my lan address http://192.168.2.101/testphp.php and it worked fine :O?
[08:39] <stratovarius> does someone tell me how can I transfer files on a removible device?
[08:39] <deacon> Seveas, yes, that allows me to mount it to the desktop, but Amarok cannot search that to add to it's playlist, nor can xmms play off it.
[08:39] <reiki> I have a 160GB drive and bios only sees half of it. Is there a way to have grub load with drive parms like you can with lilo? FEED it cylinders, heads, sectors with parm "linear" ?
[08:39] <luis_> It's the Jive Messenger server from Here: http://www.jivesoftware.org/downloads.jsp
[08:39] <gunder> hello
[08:39] <Seveas> deacon, ah, ok, I created another utility for that
[08:39] <apokryphos> bunniears: weird... doesn't make much sense. It should work from localhost
[08:39] <topyli> fraggsta: too hot for you? :)
[08:39] <ztonzy> hi apokryphos
[08:39] <Seveas> http://ubuntulinux.nl/files/addsamba
[08:39] <Seveas> run that as root to add a samba share to /etc/fstab
[08:39] <apokryphos> ztonzy: hey
[08:39] <fraggsta> topyli: no, it just claims my case temp is hotter than my CPU :/
[08:39] <bunniears> apokryphos: maybe because i have something running on the network?
[08:39] <topyli> heh
[08:39] <knowledge> Seveas: will that work for my situation as well?
[08:39] <deacon> Ahhh..  Most excellent!  Thank you again kind sir!
[08:40] <bunniears> apokryphos: doesnt matter though
[08:40] <apokryphos> ok
[08:40] <ztonzy> apokryphos, have you ever heard of Gedit dissapearing from the menu?
[08:40] <topyli> Seveas: another scipt? you should have a web page for them
[08:40] <Seveas> yoz, where diy you move the 90ssh-agent file to?
[08:40] <apokryphos> ztonzy: in kde or gnome?
[08:40] <topyli> probably do too :)
[08:40] <Seveas> topily strip the filename from the url :)
[08:41] <ztonzy> apokryphos, gnome... Program --> (lowest submenu where calculator also is)
[08:41] <topyli> ooh!
[08:41] <apokryphos> ztonzy: no idea I'm afraid; I use kde :P
[08:41] <yoz> Seveas, I didn't it's still in Xsession.d but I was wondering there is no ssh-agent..
[08:42] <Seveas> hehe
[08:42] <apokryphos> ztonzy: just off for a bit of a sleep now before work; catch you later :)
[08:42] <rosa> where do i punch in  /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/
[08:42] <Seveas> yoz, you need to move it outside that folder :)
[08:42] <ztonzy> apokryphos, ok...this is 2nd time that it happened to me...
[08:42] <Seveas> all files in that folder are sourced :)
[08:42] <ztonzy> apokryphos, ok...take care
[08:42] <bunniears> apokryphos: does FF have cache?
[08:42] <fraggsta> back on topic again, what the hell has happened to the backports project?  Hoary isn't being updated much and i hardly ever get any updates through backports mirrors
[08:42] <yoz> Seveas, should I move it outside and paste again?
[08:42] <luis_> How do I install an RPM in Ubuntu? It seems rpms are not compatible with debian based distributions?
[08:42] <Seveas> yoz, move it outside and reboot :)
[08:42] <Seveas> luis_, try to find a .deb if possible
[08:42] <fraggsta> luis_: Alien.
[08:42] <yoz> Seveas, ok.. brb
[08:42] <Seveas> if not: use alien
[08:43] <deacon> ok, AFK for a bit, have to step out
[08:44] <luis_> Fraggsta: It said something about Alien, but I couldn't find any information on how to use it. Does it come with the normal ubuntu install?
[08:44] <LinuxJones> luis_, alot of packages are available for download via the apt repos, what are you trying to install ?
[08:44] <fraggsta> luis_: you'd probably have to apt-get it, but using alien should be a last resort
[08:44] <Seveas> luis_, yes it is you can use 'alien filename.rpm'
[08:44] <luis_> Seaveas: not available as a .deb from the developers...
[08:45] <Seveas> luis_, what are you installing? (just curious)
[08:45] <c0rrupt_> a life
[08:45] <eventualbuddha> i have a service i want to run at startup. i know that i write a script for it, put it in /etc/init.d/, but i'm not sure about after that. help?
[08:45] <luis_> How do I send a message directly to someone, please? -)
[08:45] <c0rrupt_> type
[08:45] <c0rrupt_> /msg
[08:45] <Seveas> eventualbuddha, sudo update-rc.d defaults your_name
[08:45] <luis_> thanks
[08:46] <Seveas> (your_name = the name of the script)
[08:46] <LinuxJones> eventualbuddha, update-rc.d scriptname defaults     it will add to runlevels 2-5
[08:46] <eventualbuddha> LinuxJones, Seveas: thanks, will try now
[08:47] <c0rrupt_> higgatus figgitus
[08:47] <LinuxJones> luis_, what program is it ?
[08:47] <setite> hey.. i need to find the windows media player 9 codec...
[08:47] <DanteAlighieri> c0rrupt_: Sword in the stone?
[08:47] <setite> i read that i can use crossover office to run the plugin
[08:48] <c0rrupt_> Lol
[08:48] <c0rrupt_> yea
[08:48] <LinuxJones> luis_, ahh
[08:48] <c0rrupt_> when you loo under those rocks and plants and take a glance
[08:48] <c0rrupt_> at those fancy ants, maybe you'll just.
[08:48] <c0rrupt_> try a few
[08:49] <topyli> LinuxJones: the upgrade went well. the system is a bit b0rken though :)
[08:50] <LinuxJones> topyli, openoffice2 won't install and ther are some keyboard stuff broken
[08:50] <c0rrupt_> i got the magic stick
[08:50] <QMario> Seveas, are you still here?
[08:50] <Seveas> QMario, no this is just my answering machine
[08:50] <QMario> Seveas, okay.
[08:50] <pax> hehe
[08:51] <topyli> LinuxJones: i did install ooo and my keyboard happened to work. just some things i actually use are broken :)
[08:51] <Alakala> LinuxJones did you find anything about the usb-modules? (For booting my usb-hd)
[08:51] <Seveas> QMario, 'sup?
[08:52] <QMario> Seveas, what I meant by icon editor, was a program that can create unique icons for others programs.
[08:52] <Seveas> QMario, ah!
[08:52] <Seveas> like a drawing program
[08:52] <LinuxJones> Alakala, sorry I had to go do a few things Seveas can probably help you...he's smart :)
[08:52] <QMario> You know how GAIM has the yellow image as its icon? Something similar to that.
[08:53] <funkyHat> "Error: ALSA device "default" is already in use by another program"
[08:53] <funkyHat> i thought alsa was supposed to allow more than one program to connect? :(
[08:53] <Seveas> QMario, inkscape is a nice drawing program
[08:53] <Alakala> LinuxJones ok, thanks anyway.
[08:54] <QMario> Seveas, okay.
[08:55] <Alakala> Seveas I've got an usb-hd (No specific brand, just a maxtor-hd on a random case) which I installed Ubuntu on. GRUB on the main disk (Windows-disk) and it didin't find /dev/console and pivot_root and then of course, kernel panicked. What should I do?
[08:55] <theeil> is there a way to install the base system and install packages from the cd after booting the system?
[08:55] <yoz> Seveas, I did move it outside.. rebooted.. and it freezed again.. I had to move it back, reboot, restart gdm 4 times  and kill ssh-agent again in order to make it start gnome. here the output of ps f -e after I moved ssh-agent out of Xsession.d: http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl/1305
[08:57] <zerboxx> Does Limewire run well under linux?
[08:57] <Seveas> yoz, are you logged in now?
[08:57] <yyc747> is there an easy way to open ports on the default ubuntu firewall after install?
[08:57] <yoz> Seveas, yes I am.
[08:57] <Seveas> (I have a tiny little clue)
[08:57] <Seveas> do a ps f -e now and paste it too
[08:57] <theeil> zerboxx it needs java
[08:57] <yoz> Seveas, ok hold on..
[08:57] <hybrid_goth> Seveas: tiny little?
[08:58] <hybrid_goth> thats quiet small
[08:58] <ALoHa> yay, trackballs works
[08:58] <oonoon> hi, how can i get the ultimate help from ubuntu staff from a prob nobody managed to get through ?
[08:58] <zerboxx> theeil: And since I have java, it's all good? :)
[08:58] <douglas> my openoffice2 fonts show up as gibberish and I can't use the Suite because of it? HELP!
[08:58] <funkyHat> ok, i've discovered the problem, esd keeps starting up somehow and hogging the device. as long as esd isn't loaded, all my sound works no problem.
[08:58] <hybrid_goth> quiet: lol
[08:58] <quiet> :)
[08:58] <theeil> zerboxx: should be ;) i use bittorrent though
[08:58] <funkyHat> can someone tell me how to stop esd from ever loading?
[08:58] <Seveas> funkyHat, then let your program use esd
[08:58] <hybrid_goth> oonoon: we are the closes to "ubuntu staff" as for tech support
[08:58] <zerboxx> theeil: Oh me too, but sometimes I want to find older things which aren't in torrent form
[08:59] <quiet> funkyHat, sudoapt-get remove esd ??
[08:59] <funkyHat> Seveas, esd has a 1 second + delay
[08:59] <Determinist> grrr, anyone good with the GIMP here?
[08:59] <Seveas> funkyHat, system -> prefs -> sound -> enable sound server startup
[08:59] <Stompey00> any one know of a good ext modem to use with hoary? I recently loaded it on an older machine of mine, but it has an internal win modem. I have been  looking for a controller based model and bought a diamond supra express external but i hear it has firmware and drivers and won't support linux. If anyone knows a way i can make the diamond work it'd be appreciated. If not does anyone know of...
[08:59] <Stompey00> ...another brand or model that does work
[08:59] <Seveas> make sure it is off
[08:59] <theeil> zerboxx: i know what you mean, i would guess that limewire is the best p2p client for linux (if it works)
[08:59] <dannyu502> Seveas: Im back!!! :-D
[08:59] <zerboxx> theeil: I'll let you know in a few minutes :D
[08:59] <theeil> zerboxx: great
[08:59] <rob_p> yyc747:  There is no default firewall on Ubuntu.
[08:59] <hybrid_goth> theeil: doesnt limewire us java?
[09:00] <theeil> hybrid_goth: we just said that ;)
[09:00] <DrDabbles> Anybody in here know where I can get IEEE 1003.1 freely? I'm not a professor, engineer, or a rich man...so I'd kinda like to get the information freely.
[09:00] <yoz> Seveas, there we go: http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl/1306
[09:00] <dannyu502> Seveas: I just moved my computer downstairs so I can do all the crap on Ubuntu because now I am on the internet through Ethernet/
[09:00] <funkyHat> Seveas, system sounds are playing through alsa
[09:00] <hybrid_goth> theeil: i was asking
[09:00] <hybrid_goth> i didnt remember
[09:00] <hybrid_goth> ;-)
[09:00] <oonoon> hybrid_goth : so, who's the ultimate specialist ; i've got a prob with my nvidia that hasn't been solved (also tried the linuxquestions.org forums, with many views, but no single useful reply)
[09:00] <Doonz> if i have a directory created by root whats the command to allow everyone to do things to it?
[09:01] <Seveas> chmod 777 /path/to/dir
[09:01] <darkheart> lol
[09:01] <theeil> hybrid_goth: well it does, it is ret really true that it is "for" linux as java IS a platform, but there may be a linux installer
[09:01] <hybrid_goth> oonoon: well just ask the question and if there is no help here try google or http://ubuntu.com/wiki
[09:01] <equex_> i'd wish my keyboard was functioning properly.. why on earth is keypresses getting stuck in the buffer and repeated endlessly for seconds, minutes.. people say nvidia is well supported on linux, but it seems only that applies to graphics cards or what ? i have a nforce2 chipset.. please help... a computer without even a functioning keyboard is a defunct one :(
[09:01] <Doonz> thanx sv eas
[09:01] <hybrid_goth> theeil: ah i am not a java fan
[09:01] <Seveas> yoz, somehow esd is bugging, if you look at the outputs: where it fails esd is not yet loaded, where it works, esd is
[09:02] <hybrid_goth> equex_: who said nvidia was well supported?
[09:02] <gigaclon> can some one help me with a compiling problem?
[09:02] <Seveas> yoz, try diabling esd
[09:02] <hybrid_goth> gigaclon: just ask ;)
[09:02] <Seveas> gigaclon, please be a bit more specific
[09:02] <yoz> Seveas, hmm what's esd and how would I disable it?
[09:02] <equex_> hybrid_goth: everyone that happened to be listening when i complained about ATI
[09:02] <theeil> hybrid_goth: i don't even have it set up, but i may try again if limewire works well
[09:02] <eventualbuddha> LinuxJones: how would i implement the stop/restart commands? do you have a script recommendation i should look at?
[09:02] <dannyu502> What is the command to see the contents of a directory?
[09:03] <hybrid_goth> equex_: all i have heard is that ATI is better support. thats what is in this iBook and it worked ootb
[09:03] <meuserj|work> eventualbuddha, /etc/init.d/skeleton
[09:03] <hybrid_goth> theeil: too demanding for me. java that is
[09:03] <oonoon> hybrid_goth : i googled and ubuntu-wikied a little time ago :-) ; i've got a blank screen when i launch gnome (but it disappears after a few seconds); i see the nvidia logo, so the driver seems to be well installed (also the FPS considerably increased) ; but i can't leave gnome, otherwise i get the blank screen but this time, permanently
[09:03] <hybrid_goth> dannyu502: ls
[09:03] <gigaclon> when I when to do ./configure I got "No OpenGL library found"
[09:03] <Seveas> yoz, esd is the sound server
[09:03] <Seveas> yoz, system -> prefs -> sound -> enable sound server startup
[09:03] <zerboxx> theeil: Seems to work nicely
[09:03] <Seveas> make sure it is off
[09:03] <LinuxJones> eventualbuddha, you have to code your script for those parameters that are passed to launch the script
[09:03] <gigaclon> eventualbuddha, nice name
[09:04] <Doonz> Seveas is there a away to make all the files inside of that folder readable by all users?
[09:04] <hybrid_goth> oonoon: the binary driver correct?
[09:04] <Seveas> chmod -R a+r /path/to/folder
[09:04] <eventualbuddha> i understand that, but i mean... i have a binary that runs as a daemon. how do i stop it?
[09:04] <yoz> Seveas, oh makes sense now.. I unchecked sound server startup
[09:04] <LinuxJones> eventualbuddha, look at some of the scripts in /etc/init.d most will have the code you need.
[09:04] <Doonz> or mebbe how can i make it so that the source dir belongs to a normal user not root??
[09:04] <yyc747> ubuntu has a firewall by default, right?
[09:04] <eventualbuddha> LinuxJones: thanks
[09:04] <c0rrupt_> nien!
[09:04] <rob_p> yyc747:  No!
[09:04] <Seveas> yoz, then try rebooting to see whether my clue worked
[09:04] <hybrid_goth> yyc747: nope
[09:04] <hybrid_goth> c0rrupt_: lol
[09:05] <yoz> Seveas, ok.. brb! ;) there again!
[09:05] <c0rrupt_> Lol
[09:05] <theeil> zerboxx: cool, it's nice to use a p2p client for small downloads, but it's a bother to install java on gentoo (i'm trying to get ubuntu for my other computer)
[09:05] <oonoon> hybrid_goth : i'm pretty sure of that
[09:05] <yyc747> rob_p: sorry, I didn't see your last reply
[09:05] <c0rrupt_> firewalls are useless ;)
[09:05] <rob_p> yyc747:  No prob :-)
[09:05] <hybrid_goth> oonoon: and you installed just like said in the wiki?
[09:05] <zerboxx> theeil: Ah, took me a while to get it for ubuntu, but once I got it it's a piece of cake
[09:05] <hybrid_goth> c0rrupt_: lol tripwire is fun
[09:05] <stianj> anyone running Breezy, which does not get: "Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_accel_label_set_accel_closure: assertion `gtk_accel_group_from_accel_closure (accel_closure) != NULL' failed" for just about every gnome-app?
[09:05] <c0rrupt_> i need a graphical firewall
[09:05] <c0rrupt_> ;\
[09:05] <c0rrupt_> LOL
[09:05] <hybrid_goth> bah
[09:05] <c0rrupt_> i just contridicted myself
[09:06] <hybrid_goth> yea
[09:06] <rob_p> c0rrupt_:  there's always firestarter...
[09:06] <LinuxJones> c0rrupt_, firestarter
[09:06] <c0rrupt_> good?
[09:06] <c0rrupt_> o.0
[09:06] <oonoon> hybrid_goth: i followed every single word written there
[09:06] <yyc747> I'm planning to run a small HTTP server, but no one outside my subnet can access it... I thought, until recently, that this was due to my firewall, but now I'm not sure what's causing it... any advice?
[09:07] <gigaclon> hybrid_goth,  when I when to do ./configure I got "No OpenGL library found"
[09:07] <LinuxJones> c0rrupt_, it's fine for basic stuff yeah
[09:07] <hybrid_goth> oonoon: hmm and then it worked
[09:07] <hybrid_goth> gigaclon: have the lib?
[09:07] <jesper> Hi..  are the Live-CD's shipped by "shipit" generally broken?
[09:07] <hybrid_goth> oonoon: but what did you do to make it go to the blank screen?
[09:07] <oonoon> hybrid_goth : kind of, but i see that there're many probs around that
[09:07] <hybrid_goth> jesper: ah no
[09:07] <rob_p> yyc747:  Probably your router or something.
[09:07] <cute_bettong> how to find a list of installed apps
[09:07] <Seveas> jesper, no
[09:07] <gigaclon> hybrid_goth, dunno whats the package name?
[09:08] <eventualbuddha> LinuxJones: oohhhhh, start-stop-daemon is not specific to lighttpd. okay that makes a lot of sense
[09:08] <Seveas> cute_bettong, dpkg --get-selections | grep -v deinstaleld
[09:08] <hybrid_goth> gigaclon: no idea
[09:08] <Seveas> cute_bettong, dpkg --get-selections | grep -v deinstalled
[09:08] <Doonz> Seveas cant seem to get those files to be availible to other users they are still locked
[09:08] <hybrid_goth> apt-cache search OpenGL lib
[09:08] <oonoon> hybrith_goth : switching on the computer ; this blank screen replaces the last command lines i used to see before gnome starts
[09:08] <Seveas> Doonz, is it on a windows partition perhaps?
[09:08] <LinuxJones> eventualbuddha, ;)
[09:08] <darkheart> gigaclon It's probably libmesa
[09:08] <Doonz> nope
[09:08] <hybrid_goth> oonoon: what is your run level?
[09:09] <jesper> I was just reading: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ubuntu.user/38907
[09:09] <Doonz> how do i change the owner of a dir chown user dir?
[09:09] <hybrid_goth> yes
[09:09] <jesper> Which could indicate some trouble..
[09:09] <Doonz> k
[09:09] <yyc747> rob_p: port forwarding is set up
[09:09] <hybrid_goth> Doonz: for more try man chown
[09:09] <jak> hi. is there a ubuntu kernel-source-package or do i have to download the kernel from kernel.org? THX
[09:09] <oonoon> hybrid_goth : 2
[09:10] <rob_p> yyc747:  Is your ISP blocking inbound to port 80?
[09:10] <Seveas> jak, linux-source-2.6.10
[09:10] <hybrid_goth> oonoon: so thge gui doesnt start up w/out startx
[09:10] <Seveas> (that's the name of the package)
[09:10] <hybrid_goth> rob_p: whats the chances of that?
[09:10] <D-N-S> plz guys i'm a slackware user and i suggested to use ubuntu but i wanna knows if  ubuntu is gui (kde) or it's like slackware
[09:10] <yyc747> rob_p: I'm running it on 8080, actually
[09:10] <jak> Seveas: thx
[09:10] <hybrid_goth> D-N-S: what ever you plz
[09:10] <Seveas> D-N-S, Ubuntu can use KDE as well as no GUI at all
[09:10] <rob_p> hybrid_goth:  Quite high, actually!  Many ISPs are now doing this to prevent their users from running http servers.
[09:11] <hybrid_goth> hmm
[09:11] <hybrid_goth> weird
[09:11] <Seveas> these isp's suck :)
[09:11] <oonoon> hybrid_goth : i dont understand what you've just said ; i actually uninstalled the drivers, and i'm now on runlevel 2 and everything works fine, except the 3d acceleration
[09:11] <hybrid_goth> lol yea
[09:11] <hybrid_goth> oonoon: do you *need* 3d?
[09:11] <Doonz>  chown -c schwyl /glftpd/site
[09:11] <Doonz> that look right?
[09:12] <oonoon> hybrid_goth : i dont like much this question :-) in the near future, i would need it
[09:12] <hybrid_goth> if schwyl is a user yes
[09:12] <rob_p> yyc747:  I see.  Sounds like your port forwarding is not working properly.
[09:12] <Seveas> Doonz, if you want to make /glftpd/site be owned by schwyl: yes
[09:12] <Doonz> hmm
[09:12] <hybrid_goth> oonoon: hmm
[09:12] <Doonz> keeps saying the root is still onwer
[09:12] <hybrid_goth> oonoon: my opion what till then maybe they will have better drivers
[09:12] <Seveas> sudo chown
[09:12] <Seveas> ...
[09:12] <hybrid_goth> sudo it
[09:12] <dannyu502> Anyone have the Wiki Link for the setting up Ndiswrapper???????
[09:12] <yyc747> rob_p: any idea why that would be?  it has worked properly in the past
[09:13] <Doonz> oh lol
[09:13] <Doonz> my bad sorry
[09:13] <oonoon> hybrid_goth : bah, that's weird, my card is not that new
[09:13] <meuserj|work> oonoon, what card is it?
[09:13] <hybrid_goth> oonoon: hmm but the linux game is

[09:13] <D-N-S> what is the packege manger for V
[09:14] <D-N-S> ubuntu
[09:14] <rob_p> yyc747:  Do you have a way to verify that external connections to your network on port 8080 are failing?
[09:14] <hybrid_goth> apt
[09:14] <meuserj|work> apt/deb
[09:14] <Seveas> synaptic/apt-get/aptitude/kpackagemanager/kynaptic
[09:14] <hybrid_goth> D-N-S: dpkg and apt is a front end and synaptic is a graphical frontend to it
[09:14] <meuserj|work> D-N-S, same as debian
[09:14] <D-N-S> does it suppport RPM  or .tar.gz
[09:14] <hybrid_goth> synaptic makes life too easy

[09:14] <hybrid_goth> D-N-S: alien

[09:15] <hybrid_goth> D-N-S: you alien it to a .deb
[09:15] <D-N-S> lol
[09:15] <D-N-S> ok
[09:15] <meuserj|work> oonoon, what driver version?
[09:15] <Seveas> D-N-S, native packages are .deb, tgz and rpm are supported with alien (like others said)
[09:15] <setite> fuck.. it should be illegal for ms to disallow firefox to have a windows mp9 plugin for linux
[09:16] <hybrid_goth> lol
[09:16] <Stompey00_> Hoping for some help
[09:16] <setite> nah its bs that tehy have a windows plug.. and a mac one.. but no linux one
[09:16] <Sav> Hi, im woundering how my filesysten should look like, now i hade choosen "/ ext3 30gb" and "swap 0.5gb", any recomendation to do an other way?
[09:16] <meuserj|work> setite, try the mplayer plugin... it will work with most.. but not quite all.
[09:16] <setite> and i cant use crossover office
[09:16] <hybrid_goth> setite: numbers man
[09:16] <oonoon> meuserj|work : glub, last one 1.0-7676 (also tried older versions)
[09:16] <setite> because wmp9 requires internet to boot
[09:17] <setite> well shit lemme try cedega

[09:17] <yoz> Seveas, that was it. it starts fine now.. though without sound =)
[09:17] <Seveas> Stompey00, serial modems should always work...
[09:17] <meuserj|work> oonoon, I think you mean 7667....
[09:17] <lucaz> why totem dont play avi or mpg files?
[09:17] <Seveas> yoz, try to find an alsa+dmix tutorial or wait for breezy
[09:18] <Seveas> lucaz, it might need additional codecs
[09:18] <yyc747> rob_p: no, I don't have any way of verifying I can't connect, other than what other people have already told me
[09:18] <Stompey00_> i bought a diamond supra express that said it was linux compatible but it has no drivers and i dont know how to set it up

[09:18] <ubotu> it has been said that restricted is http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/RestrictedFormats
[09:18] <Seveas> Stompey00_, the trick is that it needs no drivers
[09:18] <meuserj|work> lucaz, install gstreamer8.0-ffmpeg
[09:18] <humbolt> what software can I use to incrementally backup several machines (including windows clients) to a harddisk and from there to a tape afterwards? the most important part of course, is easy restoration of files.
[09:18] <Stompey00> ok
[09:18] <Seveas> Stompey00, simply connect it to COM1
[09:18] <yoz> Seveas, good to know what the issue is ;) I'm gonna enable it, and start my lappy by killing the shit ;)
[09:18] <shammy>  I'm trying to install phoenix, and i installed the rpm with alien but when i try to run it i get: phoenix: error while loading shared libraries: libpng.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory, but i've already ran the command apt-get install apt-file; apt-file update; apt-file search libpng.so.2. What can I do to get the file I need?
[09:18] <Seveas> the modem is then /dev/ttyS0
[09:18] <Stompey00> just plug it in then?
[09:18] <oonoon> meuserj|work : no, 7676
[09:18] <yoz> Seveas, thanks alot for your help!

[09:19] <pepsi> so ubuntu has the 2.6.12 kernel down pat?
[09:19] <yyc747> rob_p: I just tested it with a free shell account, and it isn't working
[09:19] <ironuckles> WTF do I do when I keep getting "broken package" errors?!
[09:19] <pepsi> debian's 2.6.12 is broken for me
[09:20] <LinuxJones> shammy, libpng2 is available for download but libpng3 may be removed if you install it
[09:20] <Seveas> ironuckles, paste a complete error message on the pasatebin please
[09:20] <ironuckles> I did, but meanwhile what do I do?
[09:20] <meuserj|work> oonoon, ah.. there has been an updated driver since I installed the other day... your card SHOULD work.  I have a 6200 which works with 7667..  not sure what your problem is.
[09:20] <Seveas> ironuckles, what is the url to the errormessage?
[09:20] <eventualbuddha> okay, installed the init.d script, but now when i run /etc/init.d/tracd start it spits out the tracd usage message like it received no input, but i used OPTS= with -- $OPTS as an argument to start-stop-daemon
[09:21] <oonoon> meuserj|work, me too, it's weird that the driver seems to work fine, and i can't quit gnome anymore
[09:21] <ironuckles> Seveas: I don't know, I posted this yesterday, where do I find the url?
[09:21] <shammy> LinuxJones, ok, I have libpng2 installed, but now it says phoenix: cannot connect to x server
[09:22] <rob_p> yyc747:  Is the connection dropped and thus causing a long timeout, or it it closed with a tcp reset and you get disconnected right away?
[09:22] <Seveas> ironuckles, paste it again ;)
[09:22] <LinuxJones> shammy, what is phoenix ?
[09:22] <dannyu502> Can anyone help me mount my windows partition?
[09:22] <deacon> Seveas, I seem to be getting some unusual errors using that Samba mounting script.
[09:22] <yyc747> rob_p: I can't tell... I just get "permission denied"
[09:22] <ironuckles> ok
[09:22] <Seveas> (this reminds me: I should build a search function for it)
[09:22] <rob_p> yyc747:  what is the IP address?
[09:22] <yyc747> rob_p: probably the reset, because it happens almost instantaneously
[09:22] <Seveas> deacon, I'd like to know the complete output, paste it on a pastebin or in a private chat

[09:25] <deacon> Oh.  I really need to brush up on my IRC
[09:25] <shammy> LinuxJones, no I haven't. I forget the command.. something like set root passwd?
[09:25] <LinuxJones> shammy, yeah don't do that
[09:25] <eventualbuddha> k, figured that out. now, tracd doesn't seem to have a daemon option. how do i make it act like a daemon? appending &?
[09:25] <Madpilot> sartas: I had trouble with Rythymbox importing less than that. try Muine instead

[09:28] <meuserj|work> sartas, I've had problems like that when I had some bad files....
[09:28] <D-N-S> ok
[09:28] <sartas> Madpilot: where do i find that Muine then?
[09:28] <sartas> synaptic wont find it..
[09:28] <Seveas> you might need to enable universe
[09:28] <Madpilot> sartas: it's in the repos - you'll need universre/mulitverse enabled
[09:28] <sartas> ive already done that..
[09:28] <meuserj|work> sartas, are you on amd64?
[09:29] <D-N-S> it's on line !
[09:29] <eventualbuddha> no daemonize on ubuntu?
[09:29] <LinuxJones> shammy, sometimes you have problems when using alien to convert a .rpm .
[09:29] <sartas> yup
[09:29] <D-N-S> any one have it as a pdf or rar

[09:29] <meuserj|work> sartas, then no muine for you... mono is needed and there are no amd64 mono packages right now.
[09:29] <LinuxJones> shammy, python is already installed on your system :D
[09:29] <Madpilot> sartas: you're out of luck, I think. Muine depends on Mono, not sure if there's mono for AMD64
[09:29] <sartas> T_T
[09:29] <sartas> what to do then?
[09:30] <sartas> i need a app like iTunes..
[09:30] <meuserj|work> sartas, find the bad files and remove them.
[09:30] <nox> Seveas, since when you have an op in here? :)
[09:30] <shammy> LinuxJones, heh, but i don't know any python
[09:30] <Karhuton> I have a TAR file of size 7.3 GB. After extracting the directory only contains 4.1GB of files (according to Nautilus)
[09:30] <thewarmachine> I am currently using enlightenment dr17 and I was wondering why my applications dont show up?
[09:30] <ekimus> Seveas: ban? why not just kick him?
[09:30] <Madpilot> sartas: install the 32bit version of Ubuntu?
[09:30] <Seveas> dannyu502, never paste in here...
[09:30] <Seveas> ekimus, I did not ban, just mute
[09:30] <Seveas> a ban with a % is muting
[09:30] <sartas> Madpilot: that a little too much work..
[09:30] <LinuxJones> shammy, apt-get install diveintopython (it's a great tutroial on getting started) basic on Linux will go nowhere when there are much better alternatives.
[09:30] <equex_> this is slightly offtopic, but i think you guys should see this: http://news.yahoo.com/s/prweb/20050814/bs_prweb/prweb267050&printer=1;_ylt=A86.I1MnPgJDr3MALQU61sIF;_ylu=X3oDMTA3MXN1bHE0BHNlYwN0bWE-

[09:33] <thewarmachine> ?
[09:33] <meuserj|work> sartas, try out mp3check or checkmp3 to find the bad files.
[09:33] <phinnaeus> thanks seveas!
[09:33] <thewarmachine> .
[09:33] <LinuxJones> shammy, >> http://boa-constructor.sourceforge.net/Screenshots/   it's available in the universe repo for download already
[09:34] <sartas> meusjr (damn hard name xD) im gonna do that too..
[09:34] <WiZu> apokryphos: it's me again, Raymond. I reinstalled Ubuntu (even though you said not to, lol) but it didn't fix my problem. Help? :o. Maybe now that I have a fresh install, and I haven't fiddled with it (only once with the sound problem) it'll work.
[09:35] <ironuckles> Seveas: Now what? How does this resolve my problem?
[09:35] <reiki> ok this ain't making sense to me... I stuck a 160GB hard drive on my asus CUSL2C motherboard and it only seems to be seeing 84gigs. 84gigs isn't a bios limit that I know of. If it cut it off at 137 I could understand. Anyone else ever seen this?
[09:36] <Seveas> ironuckles, did you paste the error on the pastebin?
[09:36] <Seveas> if so, where?
[09:36] <Exo0dus> #ubuntu -es
[09:36] <Exo0dus> #ubuntu-es
[09:36] <ironuckles> Yes
[09:36] <Seveas> if so, where? <--
[09:36] <ironuckles> I dont understand
[09:36] <ironuckles> I just pasted it
[09:36] <Seveas> where..?
[09:36] <ofer0> reiki, are you sure that the hard drive is not damaged? what FS you try to use on it?
[09:36] <ironuckles> into the channel?
[09:37] <selinium> Seveas: Is midi support coming as standard on Breezy? How would I find out?
[09:37] <jesper> reiki: dont you have the full size from within linux anyway?
[09:37] <LinuxJones> reiki, how old is that mobo ?
[09:37] <thewarmachine> seveas you got a sec
[09:37] <thewarmachine> ?
[09:37] <ofer0> LinuxJones, its for P3
[09:37] <Seveas> thewarmachine, I saw the problem but I don't use E so I don't think I can help
[09:37] <reiki> ofer0: I just stuck it in the machine and ran the ubuntu installer on it. Then got a grub error. Looked in bios and saw it only at about 84gigs in size
[09:37] <Seveas> selinium, dunno
[09:38] <LinuxJones> ofer0, oh
[09:38] <ofer0> reiki, ok. who is the manufactor, and what model ?
[09:38] <selinium> Seveas: So you don't know everything :)
[09:38] <thewarmachine> lol
[09:38] <Seveas> selinium, ssstt!
[09:39] <Seveas> selinium, wiki.ubuntu.com/BreezyGoals
[09:39] <Seveas> check there
[09:39] <luis_> I'm trying to copy a file from a windows 2000 machine to an ubuntu directory, but get an "Invalid Parameters" error - how can I get past this?
[09:39] <selinium> Seveas: cheers :) ya know i'm joking, right? :)
[09:39] <Seveas>  /kill selinium
[09:39] <Seveas> :p
[09:41] <ekimus> where is something like /etc/init.d/local in ubuntu?
[09:41] <reiki> ofer0: it a western digital caviar... 160gb... model is like wd1600jbrt I think... I know it's 1600jb something
[09:42] <c0rrupt_> im having a prob with nessus
[09:42] <c0rrupt_> the nessusd is running
[09:42] <c0rrupt_> but i cannot connect to it
[09:42] <Seveas> ekimus, yo can create it :)
[09:42] <ofer0> reiki, check it`s jumpers
[09:42] <sartas> meuserj|work: how do i use mp3check? i tried mp3check /home/sartas/music/* but it didnt work..
[09:42] <reiki> ofer0: the drive has no cyl/head info on it that I could see last night. It just says LBA. So I set the bios drive selection to LBA
[09:42] <sanemadman> Hey jaded
[09:43] <reiki> ofer0: all jumpers removed as it was the only drive in the system and that's the setting for master... no slave present
[09:43] <theeil> ubuntu sounds a lot like debian to me, can anyone fill me in on what is different?
[09:43] <Seveas> theeil: Ubuntu and debian have different goals, a different release schedule and different, but overlapping communities. See also http://www.ubuntulinux.org/ubuntu/relationship
[09:43] <ofer0> reiki, the only solution is to check it on another computer, and see if its damaged
[09:43] <sanemadman> I have an issue setting up a wifi card - any help is appricated
[09:44] <decaf> theeil: nice people, no snob devs
[09:44] <kozz> do Kamion usually hang here?
[09:44] <Seveas> kozz, no
[09:44] <Seveas> what do you need him for?
[09:44] <theeil> decaf: that's nice ;)
[09:45] <kozz> he had a Pegasos package on his hopepage as I understood, just wanted a word with him
[09:45] <ParisizZZ> Hmm
[09:45] <ekimus> Seveas: nothing there by default? i thought it had something already. didn't wan't to pollute the system :)
[09:45] <Karhuton> Is linux-image-2.6.11-1-k7 known to be broken?
[09:45] <decaf> Karhuton: yes
[09:45] <sanemadman> I have a broadcom 4306 chipset - windows inf file won't install properly... any suggestions?
[09:46] <shammy> totem isn't playing anysound, what can i install to play videos?
[09:46] <decaf> Karhuton: add 'noinotify' boot parameter to kernel, if you really need that kernel
[09:46] <Karhuton> decaf, I don't - luckily
[09:46] <Seveas> Karhuton, yes
[09:46] <Karhuton> Just tried it to get a proper fglrx driver
[09:46] <Seveas> use 2.6.20 then
[09:46] <Karhuton> The one from Hoary is way too outdated
[09:47] <decaf> shammy: packages called gstreamer0.8*<plugins>
[09:47] <c0rrupt_> is there any reason why i wouldnt be able to connect to my nessusd
[09:47] <kozz> Seveas: or just a installation kernel, but would be nice to see what he is up to
[09:47] <zerboxx> Is there an easy way to do multiple renames at once? (make "lower case" into "Upper Case", and remove_those_darn_things)
[09:47] <shammy> thanls decaf
[09:48] <deacon> whoops, exited myself all the way to the desktop
[09:48] <deacon> anyways, thanks again Seveas
[09:49] <Seveas> deacon, yw :)
[09:49] <Seveas> I
[09:49] <Seveas> I'll add a checl for that package in the script :)
[09:50] <c0rrupt_> Seveas, i was able to connect to my nessusd yesterday but now it doesnt seem to allow me to connect, any ideas why?
[09:50] <theeil> zerboxx: write yourself a perl script
[09:50] <Seveas> c0rrupt_, is it running?
[09:50] <c0rrupt_> the nessusd is running yes
[09:50] <zerboxx> The_Vox: Doing it the long way it is :D
[09:51] <c0rrupt_> All plugins loaded
[09:51] <c0rrupt_> bind() failed : Address already in use
[09:51] <c0rrupt_> so
[09:51] <shammy> decaf, I installed gstreamer through apt-get but how can i run it?
[09:51] <c0rrupt_> thats what happens when i run the nessusd, it shows its already running
[09:52] <c0rrupt_> tcp        0      0 *:nessus                *:*                     LISTEN
[09:52] <ofer0> c0rrupt_, ps -e | grep nessus
[09:52] <ekimus> damn i need less bandwith :)
[09:52] <c0rrupt_> 6986 ?        00:00:00 nessusd
[09:52] <ofer0> c0rrupt_, kill 6986
[09:52] <ofer0> c0rrupt_, and try running it again
[09:53] <decaf> shammy: totem is the player for gstreamer, packages you installed are plugins of gstreamer media framework. also checkout ubuntu wiki for restricted formats
[09:53] <zerboxx> theeil: Doing it the long way it is :D
[09:53] <zerboxx> The_Vox: Sorry, wrong nick
[09:53] <c0rrupt_> ok
[09:53] <c0rrupt_> that didnt work
[09:54] <theeil> zerboxx: it should not be *too* hard
[09:54] <MrPockets> hey, when ever i try to put something on my USB drive, it shows up, but then i unplug it and plug it back in and its not there
[09:54] <zerboxx> theeil: I may test it out, but not just now :) gotta learn up on pearl first ;)
[09:55] <c0rrupt_> tcp   0    0 0.0.0.0:1241  0.0.0.0:*      LISTEN
[09:55] <theeil> zerboxx: i found a pdf book that gives a good intro and is not too long, you can read it in one sitting
[09:55] <zerboxx> theeil: What's it called?
[09:56] <c0rrupt_> anymore ideas?
[09:56] <Runofthemiller85> Q.  I'm trying to install Ubuntu and not having much luck.  When I get to the installation screen, I hit enter.  It shows 'loading vmlinux' and then maybe 'loading initrd', then my computer abruptly shuts off.
[09:56] <theeil> zerboxx: picking up perl
[09:56] <theeil> zerboxx:  http://www.ebb.org/PickingUpPerl/
[09:57] <zerboxx> theeil: Awesome, thanks
[09:57] <theeil> zerboxx: np
[09:57] <c0rrupt_> boom boom boom. i want you in my room.
[09:58] <Seveas> Runofthemiller85, use acpi=off on the command line before hitting enter
[09:58] <dannyu502_> Seveas, when i do the "sudo modprobe ndiswrapper" part it gives me an error inserting ndiswrapper and it tell me the operation is not permited
[09:58] <kozz> what is the correct url for developers pages? www.ubuntu.com/~nick does not seem to work
[09:58] <c0rrupt_> dannyu502_, thats because you used the wrong drivers
[09:58] <c0rrupt_> run
[09:59] <c0rrupt_> ndiswrapper -l
[09:59] <c0rrupt_> and tell me what it says
[09:59] <dannyu502_> ok
[09:59] <VooDoo> alright all?
[09:59] <c0rrupt_> b000m b000m b000m b0000m
[09:59] <dannyu502_> c0rrupt_, it says invalid driver for all 3 i tried
[09:59] <c0rrupt_> yea

[10:00] <dannyu502_> wusb54g
[10:00] <dannyu502_> I have a linksys wireless G network adaptor

[10:02] <InitMass> which map are you guys using in here, utf-8 or what?
[10:03] <Runofthemiller85> Seveas, I tried acpi=off, and the same problem occured.  Are there any other similar commands I can pass before installing?
[10:03] <Phinite> hello all.

[10:15] <c0rrupt_> i just cant rem the name
[10:15] <c0rrupt_> ive used it
[10:16] <Seveas> wine
[10:16] <c0rrupt_> nien

[10:18] <dannyu502_> Seveas, the mail is being sent from DUrdaneta@gmail.com.... it;s jsut taking a little while to upload.
[10:18] <Seveas> mkfs.vfat
[10:18] <Seveas> dannyu502_, ok
[10:19] <glDaher> hi, I use synaptic, searching for FAM - File alteration monitor... attempt to install, BUT .. it requires me to remove a lot of stuff, almost everything I use... is there anyway to really check if I really have to remove them?
[10:19] <Seveas> glDaher, fam is obsolete
[10:19] <Seveas> hoary uses gamin instead
[10:20] <humbolt> where on the web (where on ubuntu.com) can I check which packages are available for ubuntu?
[10:20] <dannyu502_> seveas, hold on gmail won't let me send an .exe file "for security reasons" let me try it from comcast.net
[10:20] <Concord_Dawn> Seveas, so in order to format my iPod to fat32, I'd need to do 'mkfs.vfat -F 32 /dev/sda'?
[10:20] <salil> Seveas: can you tell me how to check my internet connection rate..??
[10:20] <Sputn1k> Why gdesklets StarterBar plugin by default launch firefox with http://www1.umn.edu/twincities/index.php as home page? How can i change it?
[10:20] <Seveas> Concord_Dawn, if /dev/sda is your ipod: yes
[10:20] <Seveas> salil, bwm
[10:21] <Concord_Dawn> :)
[10:21] <Concord_Dawn> thanks.
[10:21] <glDaher> Seveas: thanks a lot. I'm writing a program, so do you think many distros are using gamin ?
[10:21] <Seveas> dannyu502_, alternatively: tell me the download location
[10:21] <hussam> will breezy make gnome 2,12 final?
[10:21] <Seveas> glDaher, afaik the API is the same
[10:21] <salil> Seveas: command not found
[10:21] <Seveas> hussam, yes
[10:21] <Concord_Dawn> here we go.
[10:21] <Seveas> sudo aptitude install bwm
[10:21] <Concord_Dawn> iPod formatting.
[10:21] <Doonz> how can i see who owns a file?
[10:21] <dannyu502_> Seveas, ok.
[10:22] <Concord_Dawn> Doonz, ls -l
[10:22] <Seveas> ls -l /path/to/file
[10:22] <[Spooky] > !restricted formats
[10:22] <ubotu> extra, extra, read all about it, restricted formats is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats or 'codecs'
[10:22] <dannyu502_> c0rrupt_, what was that site you gave me
[10:22] <samu> will breezy be released on the first of october or something?
[10:22] <Doonz> and to change owner of said file is sudo chown user file?
[10:22] <Seveas> samu, 13
[10:22] <c0rrupt_> i dont remember
[10:22] <c0rrupt_> lol
[10:22] <Seveas> wiki.ubuntu.com/BreezyReleaseSchedule
[10:22] <Concord_Dawn> s***. I broke my iPod.
[10:22] <samu> and upgrading from hoary is going to be how easy?
[10:22] <dannyu502_> lol oooo, hold on seveas, let me find it
[10:23] <Seveas> samu, very :)
[10:23] <glDaher> Seveas: thanks ... you're right... quote: "Basically it is exactly like for using the fam interface. From a programmer point of view this is the same API."
[10:23] <dannyu502_> ftp://ftp.linksys.com/pub/network/WUSB54Gv4_20050321.exe
[10:23] <samu> like apt-get upgrade the_whole_bloody_thing ?
[10:23] <dannyu502_> seveas, click that 1^^^^
[10:23] <Goodspeed> what is the best distro to run a linux half life server?
[10:23] <Goodspeed> and with bare minimum resources?
[10:24] <Seveas> Goodspeed, we in here will of course say ubuntu :)
[10:24] <ajpr> ok 1 more question, how do you open up ports in ubuntu?  e.g. for incoming connections
[10:24] <dannyu502_> seveas, download this file>>>>> ftp://ftp.linksys.com/pub/network/WUSB54Gv4_20050321.exe
[10:24] <Seveas> ajpr, by installing the service that needs the port :)
[10:24] <Seveas> dannyu502_, working on it
[10:24] <Goodspeed> well the thing is the computer im putting it on is 500 mhz 64 meg ram old hp
[10:24] <dannyu502_> kk
[10:24] <Goodspeed> and i want to use as few of resources as possible to try and host a source server
[10:24] <Seveas> Goodspeed, install ubuntu with 'server' option then
[10:24] <ajpr> ok when you say service, do you mean a program?
[10:24] <Seveas> ajpr, yes
[10:25] <Seveas> like a web server
[10:25] <Goodspeed> is that option included on the dvd?
[10:25] <Seveas> Goodspeed, yes
[10:25] <humbolt> I have my ubuntu machine not in the office. can anybody check for me if Amanda and Bacula are available in ubuntu?
[10:25] <Seveas> humbolt, packages.ubuntu.com :)
[10:25] <Goodspeed> what would the server install do tahts different from the regular one?
[10:25] <ajpr> Seveas how about when I install amule, it says my incoming ports are closed
[10:25] <Seveas> ajpr, you need to forward them in your router
[10:26] <ajpr> oh wait
[10:26] <Seveas> humbolt, both are available
[10:26] <ajpr> its working
[10:26] <ajpr> now

[10:32] <alex_> PurpleMotion: "NVIDIA Corporation NV34M [GeForce FX Go 5200] "
[10:32] <Seveas> then select your model
[10:33] <c0rrupt_> ndiswrapper -i thefile.inf
[10:33] <Seveas> and go into the correct folder
[10:33] <c0rrupt_> ok?
[10:33] <brer_rabbit> excuse me y'all but where is the info on the ubuntu config tools?
[10:33] <Seveas> and then ndiswrapper -i filename.inf
[10:33] <c0rrupt_> ..
[10:33] <Seveas> brer_rabbit, which config tool?
[10:33] <c0rrupt_> im helping
[10:33] <alex_> PurpleMotion: I appreciate you want to help me, I have been trying to do this for 3 days now
[10:33] <dannyu502_> ok ahhahaha but i dont know which one it is v2 v4 or the normal one
[10:33] <brer_rabbit> all of them please....

[10:33] <pawan> somebody help how to write cds
[10:33] <Seveas> brer_rabbit, there are quite a lot
[10:33] <PurpleMotion> alex_:  oh, i dont know, then. im sure there's a howto on it.. the problem is simple to overcome with an ati display
[10:33] <Seveas> QMari1, no idea...
[10:33] <brer_rabbit> in rh there is a regular expression I can use to open the config tools
[10:33] <pawan> somebody help how to write cds
[10:33] <brer_rabbit> such as redhat-config-whatever
[10:34] <Mez> I just had something completely muck up my home partition
[10:34] <alex_> PurpleMotion: I had them working together on the same laptop under debian but I had to configure the XFCOnfig file, now it is a xorg.conf file
[10:34] <Seveas> dpkg-reconfigure whatever
[10:34] <brer_rabbit> is there something like that in debian...err ubuntu?
[10:34] <Seveas> that's the ubuntu equivalent
[10:34] <alex_> does it matter ?
[10:34] <brer_rabbit> kewl thanks
[10:34] <brer_rabbit> that will help a lot
[10:34] <craig__> Hey
[10:34] <PurpleMotion> best i can say is look on the wiki, i have no experience with nvidia drivers, i'm an ati man
[10:35] <craig__> how do i make my linux into a server?
[10:35] <bcc|graf> craig__, just install server software ;)
[10:35] <mjr> craig, there's no magic to it, just install a piece of server software
[10:35] <Seveas> craig__, by installing server software..
[10:35] <QMari1> !label
[10:35] <ubotu> QMari1: I don't know, could you explain it?
[10:35] <craig__> where can i get that
[10:35] <QMari1> !word
[10:35] <ubotu> Not a clue, QMari1
[10:35] <QMari1> !name
[10:35] <ubotu> QMari1: No idea
[10:36] <bcc|graf> craig__, you want a webserver for example .. install apache
[10:36] <craig__> apache2triad?
[10:36] <alex_> !wiki
[10:36] <dannyu502_> Seveas, and c0rrupt, I got an unable to create directory WUSB54Gv4_20050321/Drivers/WUSB54Gv4/rt2500usb.inf
[10:36] <alex_> !wiki nvidia
[10:36] <setite> hey why is limewire detecting a firewall
[10:37] <alex_> !wiki xinerama
[10:37] <setite> i thought ubuntu doenst have a firewall
[10:37] <alex_> !wiki xorg.conf
[10:37] <c0rrupt_> it doesnt
[10:37] <brer_rabbit> setite ubuntu probably uses iptables
[10:37] <Seveas> dannyu502_, after which command?
[10:37] <emma> ciao
[10:37] <alex_> !wiki X
[10:37] <Seveas> c0rrupt_,setite: Ubuntu has, like every other linux distribution, firewalling built into the kernel. A simple frontend to this firewall is firestarter.
[10:37] <alex_> oh f**k
[10:37] <dannyu502_> seveas, after ndiswrapper -i WUSB54Gv4_20050321/Drivers/WUSB54Gv4/rt2500usb.inf
[10:38] <c0rrupt_> are you abot
[10:38] <brer_rabbit> setite, You probably mean a gui interface for the existing firewall rules
[10:38] <Seveas> dannyu502_, sudo ndiswrapper -i ...
[10:38] <setite> oh.. so it does have a firewall
[10:38] <dannyu502_> ok
[10:38] <scorpion> hi all
[10:38] <c0rrupt_> Seveas, must be a bot
[10:38] <c0rrupt_> -.-
[10:38] <PurpleMotion> !dualhead
[10:38] <ubotu> PurpleMotion: Are you on ritalin?
[10:38] <brer_rabbit> yes what Seveas said
[10:38] <Seveas> setite, yes, but by default no rules for it
[10:38] <PurpleMotion> lol
[10:38] <scorpion> i would like to explain a problem with hoary
[10:38] <PurpleMotion> !xorg.conf
[10:38] <ubotu> PurpleMotion: I don't know
[10:38] <setite> is firestarter a kde app?
[10:38] <ntldr> Hi. How do I close the X server? I want to install nvidia drivers
[10:38] <Seveas> don't play with the bot....
[10:38] <brer_rabbit> hey ubotu I am
[10:38] <brer_rabbit> ...
[10:38] <PurpleMotion> setite:  nope, gnome
[10:38] <brer_rabbit> well ive been upgraded to oh heck what is this stuff??
[10:38] <Seveas> setite, it's a gtk app, but you can use it in kde
[10:39] <scorpion> my problem is that the clock doesn't work well, it is too fast.. :(
[10:39] <setite> yea i know i can.. but i try to stay true to kde :)
[10:39] <salil> ntldr: Ctrl+Alt+backspace
[10:39] <QMari1> PurpleMotion, please do not play with the robot. :-[
[10:39] <ntldr> thanks
[10:39] <PurpleMotion> QMari1:  oh you've GOT to be kidding me
[10:39] <dannyu502_> seveas, ok it installed, now what is the next step?
[10:39] <salil> ntldr: btw.. how did you obtain nvidia drivers..?? from the main nvidia site..??
[10:39] <Seveas> setite, then you need to find another firewalling frontend :)
[10:40] <Seveas> dannyu502_, modprobe ndiswrapper
[10:40] <Seveas> dannyu502_, *sudo modprobe ndiswrapper*
[10:40] <scorpion> my problem is that the clock doesn't work well, it is too fast.. :( is this a BUG?
[10:40] <Pilaf> hi can someone please tell me the command that i would use to burn a cd with the live cd using cdrecord... my cdburner is located at /dev/cdrom1
[10:40] <xm4r5h4llx> hey guys and gals... i have a question about wireless support for ubuntu can anyone help?
[10:40] <Seveas> scorpion, a bug in your hardware perhaps...
[10:40] <setite> hey are the firefox and mozilla-firefox packages any different
[10:40] <scorpion> Seveas, no i've also looked at the ubuntu forums and many others have the same problem
[10:40] <setite> i know thats a crazy question... but you never know
[10:41] <scorpion> Seveas, under win the clock work well
[10:41] <LasseL> Pilaf, try entering burn:/// in the location line in nautilus
[10:41] <Pilaf> LasseL, i am burning it from an iso
[10:41] <dannyu502_> Seveas i got : FATAL: Error inserting ndiswrapper (/lib/modules/2.6.10-5-386/kernal/drivers/net/ndwrapper/ndiswrapper.ko): operation not permitted
[10:41] <Seveas> scorpion, how much faster does it go?
[10:42] <xm4r5h4llx> anyone?
[10:42] <Seveas> dannyu502_, install the linux-686 package (intel cpu) or linux-k7 (amd)
[10:42] <willy> hi
[10:42] <dannyu502_> seveas, wher do I get that?
[10:42] <scorpion> Seveas, i leave the pc always on, so for example after six hours it is 15 minutes ahead
[10:42] <Seveas> AlinuxOS, turn of that obnoxious away-messaging...
[10:42] <LasseL> Pilaf, you want to burn an iso image?
[10:43] <Seveas> via synaptic dannyu502_
[10:43] <QMari1> !abuse
[10:43] <ubotu> QMari1: Not a clue
[10:43] <Fanskapet> dannyu502_ did you do that in sudo mode?
[10:43] <dannyu502_> ok
[10:43] <QMari1> !bot abuse
[10:43] <ubotu> I heard bot abuse is a bannable offense
[10:43] <Seveas> scorpion, hmm
[10:43] <dannyu502_> Fanskapet, yes
[10:43] <Pilaf> LasseL, yes see my hd is dead, so this is all i have... this and a dump drive and i was burning an iso that i made for backup
[10:43] <LasseL> Pilaf, I did that a while ago, it was incredicle simple. I downloaded the iso image to my desktop, inserted a blank cd (it appeared on the desktop) then I dragged the iso to the cd
[10:43] <AlinuxOS> loooooooolz
[10:43] <AlinuxOS> sorry
[10:43] <Pilaf> LasseL, backup of sstem files
[10:43] <AlinuxOS> testing only
[10:44] <scorpion> never heard abuot this issue?
[10:44] <AlinuxOS> sorry
[10:44] <QMari1> Ubotu, tell PurpleMotion about bot abuse.
[10:44] <Pilaf> LasseL,  will it use the buffer underrun stuff?
[10:44] <Fanskapet> dannyu502_ odd.. in what version of ndiswrapper?
[10:44] <Seveas> scripts that generate output are not appreciated in here :)
[10:44] <PurpleMotion> dude, SERIOUSLY, stuff it
[10:44] <PurpleMotion> wanker
[10:44] <Seveas> PurpleMotion, language...
[10:44] <QMari1> Huh?
[10:44] <alex_> :( no help at all for nvidia
[10:44] <LasseL> Pilaf, no idea, and no idea if this will work the same way from a live ce
[10:44] <Seveas> !tell alex_ about nvidia
[10:44] <dannyu502_> Fanskapet, not sure... how do i check?
[10:44] <PurpleMotion> Seveas:  sorry.. if this guy got any more anal, he's come with his own tube of astro glide
[10:44] <hotxSAUCE> alex there is an nvida driver for linux
[10:45] <scorpion> alex_,  use synaptic to install nvidia drivers
[10:45] <Pilaf> PurpleMotion, wow someone else knows what astro glide is!!!!
[10:45] <dannyu502_> Seveas, it couldnt find the Linux 686 thing
[10:45] <Pilaf> lol
[10:45] <Fanskapet> dannyu502_ stupied as hell the developers haven't bult in the --version parameter
[10:45] <davidmc> yes there is
[10:45] <fatcap> i got the weather thing on my panel
[10:45] <Fanskapet> so well look at the name of the compressed file you've unpacked and compiled
[10:45] <fatcap> forcast thing
[10:45] <Seveas> dannyu502_, the linux-686 package should be visible...
[10:45] <fatcap> how do i change the defualt location?
[10:45] <alex_> scorpion: I have done all of this
[10:45] <Seveas> dannyu502_, paste your sources.list on the pastebin
[10:46] <alex_> the problem is not there
[10:46] <dannyu502_> ok hold on
[10:46] <alex_> my driver works
[10:46] <alex_> I can work with both of my monitor fine
[10:46] <bimberi> fatcap: right click -> Preferences -> Location tab
[10:46] <alex_> but not together
[10:46] <dannyu502_> seveas, lol how do i do that?
[10:46] <willy> the NVidia driver wants some kernel source
[10:46] <Seveas> !pastebin
[10:46] <ubotu> methinks pastebin is a site where you can post large texts and screenshots so you don't flood the channel. You can find it at http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl
[10:46] <willy> how do i get it?
[10:46] <alex_> there are on the same card (i have a laptop with a VGA out)
[10:46] <dannyu502_> !pastebin
[10:46] <dannyu502_> ?
[10:47] <scorpion> Seveas, so nobody can help with this strange system clock problem? :(
[10:47] <alex_> and for some reasons when it works for one it does not for the other
[10:47] <Blazer_ES> Hello
[10:47] <XandriX> is ther ea kernel for k6 ?
[10:47] <PurpleMotion> scorpion:  what's the problem?
[10:47] <Yns> Hi , I'm having problems about connecting to internet with Cnet ethernet card.Should I install a patch for kernel ? Any idea ?
[10:47] <Yns> * I'm in kubuntu.
[10:47] <Seveas> scorpion, I can't at least...
[10:47] <Blazer_ES> Just got my Ubuntu CD's How can Install it without deleting my Windows?
[10:47] <dannyu502_> seveas, what do I type in to get my sources.list
[10:47] <family> if I want to move from fedora to ubuntu...and want to keep some of the files I have...how do I do that
[10:48] <Sav> Ny Wifi card is a "xircom RBEM56G-100", I cant get it to work, well, read about ndiswrapper but im unsure what file to load, any hints?
[10:48] <hotxSAUCE> blazer u need to read up on dual booting
[10:48] <scorpion> PurpleMotion, my problem is that the clock doesn't work well, it is too fast.. :( is this a BUG?
[10:48] <fatcap> i have 2 sound cards
[10:48] <fatcap> :\
[10:48] <fatcap> but i have no sound
[10:48] <fatcap> lol
[10:48] <Seveas> dannyu502_, gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[10:48] <fatcap> how fucked is that
[10:48] <Fanskapet> Blazer_ES you create two empty partitions one linux swap partition and one ext3
[10:48] <dannyu502_> k thanks seveas
[10:48] <PurpleMotion> scorpion:  I don't know, to be honest, but you could at least partially resolve the issue by using ntpdate to sync the clock to the right time every 5 minutes or so
[10:48] <davidmc> my install went well,for the most part.....lol!
[10:49] <dannyu502_> seveas, ok lol i got it but whered the little pastebin
[10:49] <PurpleMotion> scorpion:  google.com/linux and search for the model of your rtc
[10:49] <Seveas> scorpion, ooh, ntp....
[10:49] <Seveas> scorpion, run tzconfig
[10:49] <Seveas> dannyu502_, paste.ubuntulinux.nl
[10:49] <PurpleMotion> i thought it was pastebin.ubuntulinux.nl
[10:49] <Blazer_ES> And how do I do that ? didnt dare to touch it yet. I have one 3 HDD's Can I just choose the 3rd in ubuntu setup for ubuntu?
[10:50] <Seveas> PurpleMotion, both work :)
[10:50] <dannyu502_> seveas, ok i posted it
[10:50] <PurpleMotion> ah
[10:50] <PurpleMotion> Seveas:  how about a purplemotion-rocks.ubuntulinux.nl :D
[10:50] <scorpion> Seveas, tzconfig let me change timezone, it is configure correctly...
[10:50] <Seveas> dannyu502_, you did not enable any repositories :)
[10:51] <QMari1> PurpleMotion, do you know anything about name-tag labels and OpenOffice?
[10:51] <dannyu502_> seveas, lol how do i do that?
[10:51] <Tchaka> hello tous
[10:51] <Seveas> dannyu502_, sudo wget -O http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl/d969 -O /etc/apt/sources.list && apt-get update
[10:51] <dannyu502_> ok
[10:51] <PurpleMotion> QMari1:  actually, m8, I use KOffice, and I don't do much by way of making labels, sorry
[10:51] <dannyu502_> lemme put that it
[10:51] <dannyu502_> in
[10:51] <scorpion> PurpleMotion, that solution is the first i've thinked of, how can i change the update time?
[10:51] <fatcap> is there any way to make most of my windows transparent?
[10:51] <QMari1> It's okay. Thank you anyway. :)
[10:52] <Sav> My Wifi card is a "xircom RBEM56G-100", I cant get it to work, well, read about ndiswrapper but im unsure what file to load, any hints?
[10:52] <dannyu502_> seveas I got a : wget: missing URL.... then on the next line Usage: wget [OPTION] ... [URL] ...
[10:52] <salil> my kde keeps crashing.. any idea why...??
[10:52] <PurpleMotion> scorpion:  put it in /etc/crontab for every 5 minutes (make sure to dump the output to /dev/null or your mail file will fill up quickly)
[10:52] <fatcap> !transparent windows
[10:52] <ubotu> fatcap: I haven't a clue
[10:52] <Seveas> dannyu502_, my bad
[10:52] <salil> kaffine.. and kde
[10:52] <fatcap> !transparecy
[10:52] <ubotu> Bugger all, i dunno, fatcap
[10:52] <ekimus> anyobody already tried the mezzo and orchestra desktop?
[10:52] <fatcap> ubotu, i hate you.
[10:52] <ubotu> fatcap: I don't know
[10:52] <salil> and other programs as well
[10:52] <Seveas> dannyu502_, sudo wget http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl/d969 -O /etc/apt/sources.list && sudo apt-get update
[10:53] <PurpleMotion> fatcap:  try transparency
[10:53] <dannyu502_> ok
[10:53] <scorpion> ok tnx
[10:53] <scorpion> i'll try
[10:53] <dannyu502_> seveas, ok. now should i search for linux 686
[10:54] <fatcap> ...
[10:54] <PurpleMotion> scorpion:  but you really want to look up whether or not there's a patch or a special kernel option for your RTC
[10:54] <Seveas> dannyu502_, sudo aptitude install linux-686 && sudo reboot
[10:54] <bkerley> is the torrent.ubuntu.com:6969 tracker down for everybody, or is it still possible for me to get the install/live dvd?
[10:55] <scorpion> PurpleMotion, yeah on the forums i've readed something like kernel options noapic
[10:55] <uthini> damned point to play install is possesed
[10:55] <Seveas> there is a dvd mirror, see wiki.ubuntu.com/Archive
[10:55] <uthini> i installed cedega
[10:55] <scorpion> but was referred to laptops
[10:56] <scorpion> i'm using an abit nforce2 system
[10:56] <uthini> Seveas, mounted iso will act like virtual cd's?
[10:56] <Blazer_ES> hmm so where can I read about dual booting?
[10:56] <topyli> how do you change default fonts in tk apps?
[10:56] <Seveas> uthini, not in every way
[10:56] <uthini> how not so?
[10:56] <Seveas> but for most purposes
[10:56] <bkerley> thanks Seveas , it's a mighty fast mirror too
[10:56] <Seveas> booting, cd copy checks etc only work on real cd's
[10:57] <Blazer_ES> so where can I read about dual booting?
[10:57] <yyc747> for some reason, ubuntu seems to be blocking ports arbitrarily.  I have the ports forwarded from my router, but ubuntu refuses to accept a connection from outside my subnet.  I've tried enabling the DMZ on my router, and pointing it to the machine in question, but nothing seems to work.  other ports to other computers have been forwarded successfully.  does anyone have any idea what's happening?
[10:57] <bimberi> Blazer_ES: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WindowsDualBootHowTo\
[10:57] <bimberi> Blazer_ES: er, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WindowsDualBootHowTo
[10:57] <uthini> gaming purposes? can i iso my run cd's and just leave them mounted?
[10:57] <Blazer_ES> Thank you bimberi!
[10:57] <bimberi> Blazer_ES: yvw :)
[10:57] <Seveas> uthini, depends on the copy protection
[10:57] <uthini> mkay Seveas, tx
[10:57] <Seveas> if there is none, then yes :)
[10:58] <Seveas> oterwise: maybe
[10:58] <neiras> Is there a proper way to remove all backports packages from my system?
[10:58] <fatcap> copy protection?
[10:58] <fatcap> whats that?
[10:58] <bkerley> something windows has
[10:58] <uthini> some discs go funky when u try to copy them
[10:58] <uthini> gfaah
[10:58] <uthini> why is the P@P auto installing cedega? i already installed the thing
[10:58] <uthini> funny thing
[10:59] <uthini> legitimate software is always more troublesome to insall :)
[10:59] <Blazer_ES> thats not how I have it, I have 3hdds and 1 can be formated for ubunutu
[10:59] <uthini> P2P*
[11:00] <Mez> neiras, remove it from your /etc/apt/sources.list
[11:00] <filip_> is it some way i can make an icon on my desktop that make i get in to my hda5 ?
[11:00] <Mez> then,, go into synaptic, adn look at the "local or obsolete" section
[11:00] <Mez> and remove any with ~5.04ubp in it
[11:00] <Seveas> filip_, ln -s /path/to/where/hda5/is/mounted ~/Desktop/hda5
[11:00] <Mez> neiras, why do you want to remove them
[11:00] <topyli> Mez: link the mount point to your desktop
[11:00] <Mez> topyli, huh?
[11:01] <uthini> installing KDE for ubuntu keeps failing! do i need a faster net connection?
[11:01] <topyli> drag it from nautilus, or link it like a man (like Seveas told you)
[11:01] <neiras> Mez - firefox conflicts because of a bad package name, and I was looking for an updated ruby that was supposedly in backports, and is not.
[11:01] <dannyu502_> seveas, ok linux 686 is now installed ..... now what is it that i do with this again?
[11:02] <Mez> neiras, updated ruby WILL be in official backports
[11:02] <Mez> when elmo gets round to it
[11:02] <Mez> and the firefox issue = *shudderS*
[11:02] <dabar> sd
[11:02] <ReleaseX> could anyone help me install the latest drivers for orinoco?
[11:03] <Seveas> dannyu502_, reboot
[11:03] <dannyu502_> Seveas, I did
[11:03] <Seveas> and choose kernel 2.6.10-5-686 when booting
[11:03] <neiras> Mez - ruby on Ubuntu is broken at the moment - apps depending on Ruby on any other system may or may not work on Ubuntu, and all because the Ubuntu packagers put a Ruby prerelease in main and didn't bother to update it to stable
[11:03] <neiras> Shouldn't be waiting for a backport in this situation
[11:04] <savve> My Wifi card is a "xircom RBEM56G-100", I cant get it to work, well, read about ndiswrapper but im unsure what file to load, any hints?
[11:04] <dannyu502_> Seveas, ok... will that b a choice on my boot manager?
[11:04] <Seveas> dannyu502_, yes
[11:04] <filip_> Seveas: Should it be like this ln -s /dev/hda5 ~/Desktop/hda5 ?
[11:05] <Seveas> filip_, no
[11:05] <Seveas> you need to mount it first
[11:05] <uthini> Seveas, i'm having trouble browsing windows shares, i went onto a friends PC yesterday, but now it won't like it doesn't remember the password, or has the wrong info stored and is just defaulting to it neways
[11:05] <filip_> Seveas: how can i do that then?
[11:06] <Blazer_ES> During ubuntu installation will I have the option to choose wich hdd to use for ubuntu? and will Windows on the other hdd still be bootable?
[11:06] <dannyu502_> Seveas, ok. Now what?
[11:07] <dabar> sure, if you set it up right, Blazer_ES./
[11:07] <PurpleMotion> you're awful worried about keeping windows
[11:07] <QMari1> Blazer_ES, did you use Partition Magic? ;)
[11:07] <uthini> ubotu windows shares aren't loading
[11:07] <ubotu> uthini: I haven't a clue
[11:07] <uthini> ubotu windows shares
[11:08] <ubotu> uthini: Did you get hit by a windmill?
[11:08] <uthini> ubotu samba shares
[11:08] <ubotu> uthini: No idea
[11:08] <dabaR> !ubotu
[11:08] <ubotu> Thaaat's me! I'm a bot, not a human. I'm sometimes the most coherent poster on #ubuntu! For more, ask me about "add". You can browse my brain on http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[11:08] <uthini> ubotu samba
[11:08] <ubotu> extra, extra, read all about it, samba is http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/SettingUpSamba
[11:08] <dannyu502_> Seveas, I rebooted my computer into kernal 10.5.686 ... now what?
[11:08] <oonoon> i dont have any /etc/grub.conf ... can i find the grub.conf elsewhere ?
[11:08] <Blazer_ES> I have one hard drive 80gb and thats the one I want to use for ubuntu I dont want to touch the other 200gigers of windows
[11:08] <dabaR>  /boot/grub
[11:08] <bimberi> oonoon: /boot/grub/menu.lst
[11:09] <oonoon> bimberi : thanks
[11:09] <PurpleMotion> be a man, nix your windows partitions
[11:09] <fatcap> dont
[11:09] <fatcap> your sound might not work
[11:09] <Seveas> dannyu502_, retry the sudo modprobe
[11:09] <fatcap> and you'll be sitting in silence like me
[11:09] <dabaR> Blazer_ES: just a sec
[11:09] <fatcap> :)
[11:09] <dannyu502_> Seveas, ok
[11:09] <PurpleMotion> oh man i think im gonna cry
[11:09] <PurpleMotion> ;)
[11:09] <filip_> seveas: i get it working
[11:09] <dabaR> good
[11:10] <PurpleMotion> Current song: 2. Techno Classical - Beethoven - Fur Elise (Trance Remix)
[11:10] <Seveas> PurpleMotion, ....
[11:10] <PurpleMotion> Seveas:  ,,,, (heh, i quit :P)
[11:10] <dabaR> ok, Blazer_ES.
[11:10] <Seveas> ok
[11:11] <Blazer_ES> go ahead
[11:11] <oonoon> i have to change the  'vga=' in the grub.conf, but in the menu.lst i dont find such a parameter
[11:11] <dabaR> Blazer_ES: you will be asked if you want to install the ubuntu over everything, or manually edit the partition table. You should choose the second, obviously. Set up the second hard drive for ubuntu, do not touch the first.
[11:11] <PurpleMotion> so add it
[11:11] <ReleaseX> could anyone help me install the latest drivers for orinoco?
[11:11] <PurpleMotion> vga=whatever
[11:11] <dabaR> Blazer_ES: one more thing, sec/
[11:11] <PurpleMotion> mine is vga=791
[11:12] <Seveas> oonoon, add it to the KOPT lines and run update-grub
[11:12] <oonoon> PurpleMotion : i dont find where to change the 'vga=' line... :-)
[11:12] <PurpleMotion> oonoon:  do as seveas said
[11:12] <oonoon> Seveas : KOPT lines ?
[11:13] <Blazer_ES> How do I prepare the 80gb hdd then? Ill format it to FAT32 from windows ok?
[11:13] <Kyral> hmm
[11:13] <Kyral> hehe
[11:13] <Seveas> # kopt=root=/dev/hda6 ro vga=773
[11:13] <Seveas> that line in menu.lst
[11:13] <PurpleMotion> why would you format a linux partition fat32?
[11:13] <Kyral> what the hell I'm bored and I expect breakage, but I'm a CS Major, if I cannot fix my own computer than what good am I?
[11:13] <nvidhive_> does ubuntu require 128-bit WEP? cuz I cannot seem to get 64-bit werking with ndiswrapper and this Realtek8180
[11:13] <dabaR> Blazer_ES: then, at grub(boot loader) install, it will ask you if you want to add grub to mbr, and you choose, yes, I do want it.
[11:13] <PurpleMotion> Blazer_ES:  just put in the ubuntu cd and tell it to use the 80gb hdd, it will do what you need
[11:14] <dabaR> Blazer_ES: you can format the second hard drive during install.
[11:14] <dabaR> and partition, and all.
[11:14] <dabaR> same as in windows install, and much better.
[11:14] <oonoon> Seveas : ok , i'll do so, but is that normal that it misses ?
[11:14] <Seveas> yes
[11:15] <PurpleMotion> yeah, the vga= line is purely optional
[11:15] <Blazer_ES> yeh but the 80gb is NTFS at the moment or does that just matter when resizing?
[11:15] <oonoon> PurpleMotion: so, what's the default value it takes ?
[11:15] <PurpleMotion> as different vga= lines will break different systems, it's typically omitted
[11:15] <uthini> Sorry, couldn't display all the contents of "Windows Network: chidori". <--- samba browsing error, it doesn't ask me for a PW and i think it has the PW wrong
[11:15] <dabaR> completely unimportant, if you are going to delete everything on it.
[11:15] <uthini> how do i fix?
[11:15] <PurpleMotion> the default (omitting vga= altogether) is equivalent to vga=normal
[11:15] <oonoon> PurpleMotion : woouh, there's such a danger to change that ?
[11:16] <PurpleMotion> not a major danger, especially with grub where you can hit a key and turn it off before it takes hold ;)
[11:17] <Blazer_ES> Hmm I have another 60gig around but if I install it will be on a RAID controller while the other Windows drives are on IDE is that problem?
[11:17] <Seveas> no
[11:17] <topyli> oonoon: old monitors used to break but modern ones just complain :)
[11:18] <oonoon> topyli : gllub, i'm scared now, what must i do if things go crazy on the boot ?
[11:18] <PurpleMotion> Blazer_ES:  you're overcomplicating a very simple process ;) Just throw the cd in and go :) It won't hurt, we [almost]  promise
[11:18] <topyli> oonoon: the monitor will probably display "out of sync" or something. you reboot and try a different kernel option
[11:19] <oonoon> topyli : okok, ill try
[11:19] <Blazer_ES> Ok, Ill install the 60 giger now and try and install ubuntu on to it
[11:20] <Blazer_ES> Oh one last question, I have a amd64 cpu so I should definitely go for the 64bit edition right?
[11:20] <ReleaseX> how can you upgrade to the 2.6.12 kernel in 5.04 using apt-get
[11:20] <Seveas> Blazer_ES, not if you care about having flash and/or ndiswrapper
[11:20] <Seveas> ReleaseX, not
[11:20] <fatcap> hey i have some files and they are filename.o
[11:21] <fatcap> what do i do with them
[11:21] <fatcap> to make them work
[11:21] <fatcap> :\
[11:21] <Seveas> And you really shouldn't; 5.04 is not compatible with 2.6.12
[11:21] <PurpleMotion> whats the right way to spell inna godda davida?
[11:21] <PurpleMotion> like the opera song
[11:22] <ReleaseX> seveas, cause i want the orinoco drivers to be updated, but i can't figure out how to install them
[11:22] <Blazer_ES> So what is flash and ndiswrapper
[11:22] <micocrack> alguien que me ayude
[11:22] <fatcap> !es
[11:22] <ubotu> Hispanohablantes: Por favor usen #ubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[11:23] <Seveas> Blazer_ES, flash as in macromedia flash, ndiswrapper is for crappy wireless cards that have no proper linux drivers
[11:23] <fatcap> what about audio cards that have no proper linux driver
[11:23] <dabaR> fatcap: like?
[11:24] <fatcap> please make your question a little bit more of a question.
[11:24] <PurpleMotion> man and i thought *I* asked a million questions before i installed something
[11:24] <dabaR> like which cards.
[11:24] <dabaR> PurpleMotion: hi.
[11:25] <PurpleMotion> hai
[11:25] <fatcap> 0000:01:09.0 Multimedia audio controller: Rockwell International: Unknown device 4310
[11:25] <ompaul> dabaR, the top of the range yahamas afik (closed source muppets)
[11:25] <Concord_Dawn> fatcap, look for something similar to ndiswrapper, only for audio cards.
[11:26] <fatcap> how about someone tell me what these files with the .o exenstion mean
[11:26] <Kyral> Someone wanna call me stupid for upgrading to Breezy even when I know how to fix X
[11:26] <fatcap> and how do i put them to work on my system?
[11:26] <Kyral> .o are object files
[11:26] <ompaul> fatcap, they are object files - kind of like source on the way to executable to be bundled with other stuff to make a good world
[11:27] <fatcap> so how do i make my system use them?
[11:27] <fatcap> because if i knew that i could prolly fix my audio
[11:28] <ompaul> fatcap, it chooses to use them a part of a driver and the best book on drivers has to be the o'reilly one www.oreilly.com for a safari enabled version
[11:28] <ompaul> 45 day free trial of that
[11:28] <glDaher> how do I check to see if a demon (gamin) is running or not?
[11:28] <Blazer_ES> So I wont be able to see flash animations with amd64 version?
[11:28] <fatcap> im not trying to read a book.
[11:29] <fatcap> im trying to fix my audio
[11:29] <fatcap> i shouldn't have to read a book to do that...
[11:29] <Concord_Dawn> yes you should.
[11:29] <ethan_> Hello?
[11:29] <Concord_Dawn> :-P
[11:29] <Concord_Dawn> You have to read SOMETIME.
[11:29] <fatcap> i have plenty of books
[11:29] <ethan_> hellooo?
[11:29] <ompaul> glDaher, if the name of the daemon was - afik then 'ps auwx | grep afik'
[11:30] <brer_rabbit> so what do you expect fatcap everyone in here guide you for each step so that you can continue not to learn?
[11:30] <ethan_> I just got ubuntu installed but I'm having some troubles
[11:30] <ethan_> >
[11:30] <fatcap> ....
[11:30] <ompaul> !tell ethan_ about ask
[11:30] <ethan_> humm..
[11:30] <ethan_> alright
[11:30] <fatcap> brer_rabbit, where are you from?
[11:31] <ethan_> I have an iBook 500 mhz with a little more than 300 megs of ram, and its going extremely slow...
[11:31] <QMari1> Okay everyone, I figured out how to do those Avery name labels in Open Office. If anyone wants to know, you could always ask me. ;) Thank God!!! :)
[11:31] <brer_rabbit> fatcap why do you ask?
[11:31] <ethan_> Whenever I move the mouse with the trackpad, the mouse will lag a lot
[11:31] <fatcap> just wondering
[11:31] <ethan_> and not be very responsive
[11:31] <glDaher> ompaul: output is daher    16180  0.0  0.1   3036   728 pts/0    S+   00:30   0:00 grep gamin
[11:31] <glDaher> which means it is running, right? or are these zeros to mean anything else?
[11:31] <ompaul> QMari1, well write it down once, then you can point people to it, I guess it could be a bit oa process
[11:32] <ethan_> I'm also having troubles opening any programs after i log out and later back in untill i force restart
[11:32] <ethan_> ^
[11:32] <brer_rabbit> well fatcap if you are going to run linux, which is a good thing, you will need to do some reading whether it be ebooks or hardcopy books
[11:32] <fatcap> ...
[11:32] <ompaul> glDaher, no, that is the process that is looking for the process - see grep - grep is like a text version of 'find the following text in output that is coming your way'
[11:32] <ethan_> hmm...
[11:32] <fatcap> i have more books than you.
[11:33] <ubuntu> wassap!
[11:33] <savve> My Wifi card is a "xircom RBEM56G-100", I cant get it to work, well, read about ndiswrapper but im unsure what file to load, any hints?
[11:33] <dabaR> god
[11:33] <ethan_> ok...
[11:33] <ethan_> My computer is running really, really slow.  And I just installed ubuntu,  I'm using a 500 mhz iBook
[11:33] <brer_rabbit> and you would know that how fatcap?
[11:33] <popey> Has anyone here had much luck giving away lots of Ubuntu CDs in the office work place?
[11:34] <popey> (at work I mean)
[11:34] <phreakys> hello
[11:34] <ompaul> ethan_, we see that, now if anyone has an idea for you they will pass it on
[11:34] <ethan_> fine....
[11:34] <fatcap> how many gigs of ebooks you got?
[11:34] <fatcap> i got 12
[11:34] <fatcap> and a couple shelves full of real books
[11:34] <dabaR> popey: why would an answer to that be beneficial? are you thinking of doing it, but want encouragement?
[11:34] <phreakys> im trying to run pure-ftpd, but port 21 is blocked. how can i check what program is bugging that port?
[11:34] <brer_rabbit> then you have no excuse do you fatcap?
[11:34] <popey> I'm wondering how to word the mail to the bulletin board
[11:35] <fatcap> brer_rabbit, where do you live?
[11:35] <popey> "Want to give an old pc a new lease of life?"
[11:35] <oonoon> pff, didn't work;  the colored lines on the blank screen semed different when i added the  'vga=' but the problem remains ; except for the resolution (which changed a little bit), i think the problem of the nvidia is just present in the console mode
[11:35] <popey> or
[11:35] <popey> "Here, try Linux, it's quite nice" :)
[11:35] <popey> wondered what strategy others have used for introducing newbies at work
[11:35] <ompaul> popey, live or install, or both?
[11:35] <brer_rabbit> why fatcap?
[11:35] <popey> possibly non-computer experts
[11:35] <popey> both
[11:35] <popey> shipit sent me a wad
[11:36] <dabaR> finally, a linux that is easier to install and use than windows...:-/
[11:36] <dabaR> and then explain afetr the title...
[11:36] <fatcap> ...
[11:36] <ethan_> And I don't know why ubuntu is using pretty much all my ram, it didn't use this much in os x.... = /
[11:36] <fatcap> because i wanna see how many books you have.
[11:36] <popey> :)
[11:36] <fatcap> smarty pants.
[11:36] <dabaR> that there are a few things that need to be learned, but it is easier to use once you get it going, and a world of new opportunity opens.
[11:36] <dabaR> blah
[11:36] <DanteAlighieri> Anyone know how to mount drives connected to a SATA PCI-E card?
[11:36] <popey> yeah
[11:36] <dabaR> later.
[11:36] <brer_rabbit> fatcap... go play with your leggos an let the grownups work
[11:36] <popey> marketing blurb
[11:37] <fatcap> lol
[11:37] <ethan_> How long is it supposed to take to shut down?  Because I waited for quite a while a few times and I don't think its supposed to tak so long... = /  or is it???
[11:37] <owlmanatt> What CMS is the ubuntu site utilizing?
[11:37] <fatcap> just tell me where u live dude.
[11:37] <fatcap> since you're so grown.
[11:38] <QMari1> Are there any Linux programs that support the creation of .ico files?
[11:38] <fatcap> or else quit wasting my time.
[11:38] <ethan_> maybe theres some driver for the ibook trackpad to make it actually usable?  Because its lagging WAYY too much.. =-(
[11:38] <popey> QMari1: http://www.winterdrache.de/freeware/png2ico/index.html
[11:38] <brer_rabbit> ya know usually I would but you dont strike me as a very sane individual.  You want to attack when asked to read up on your simple questions and you want to brag about your superior this and that... I would rather you not know anything about me
[11:39] <ompaul> popey put up the the live this week and say - Paying for software, Forget Windows try this, its called Linux, this one does not want to install it does not touch your hard drive - you can enjoy a taste without making a commitment - , if you want to take it further take them out of pile two - so then go out and put 10 there remove one yourself after an hour - remove a few more later then restock higher
[11:39] <ompaul> popey,  :-)
[11:39] <fatcap> fatcap or else quit wasting my time.
[11:39] <popey> :)
[11:39] <brer_rabbit> I know what... fatcap how about /ignore... works for me
[11:40] <kafeine> fatcap this is NOT the channel to brag, offence, or plain old silly being rude
[11:40] <ethan_> -sigh-
[11:40] <fatcap> ....
[11:40] <brer_rabbit> he wont listen...
[11:40] <alex_> hi
[11:40] <ethan_> So is slow performance normal on a 500 mhz ibook?  It takes firefox about 30 seconds to open.  But usually doesn't end up opening anyways...
[11:40] <MrPockets> hey fellas,  can i download themes to switch up the way the tool bars or start menus look on my desktop?
[11:41] <MrPockets> im kinda getting sick of the dull grey on black
[11:41] <kafeine> MrPockets, yes you can
[11:41] <MrPockets> what are they called?
[11:41] <popey> MrPockets: yes, gnome themes
[11:41] <barbas> Hi everybody!
[11:41] <popey> MrPockets: http://art.gnome.org/
[11:41] <ethan_> ..
[11:41] <c0rrupt_> YO
[11:41] <ethan_> I'm not having a very good time with this...
[11:42] <ethan_> I didn't expect it to be so slow..
[11:42] <ethan_> nobobdy has any ideas???
[11:42] <ompaul> ethan_, I have no idea, but I do suggest you try a program called memtest to check your ram that seems not the best
[11:42] <popey> ethan_: I have a 500MHz PC and it's not rapid, but not too slow, but then it has 512MB of RAM
[11:42] <ethan_> ok where do i get that
[11:42] <popey> ethan_: it's on the ubuntu live cd
[11:42] <ethan_> well...
[11:42] <popey> ethan_: one of the boot options
[11:42] <ethan_> I dont' wanna have to download that..
[11:42] <brer_rabbit> ethan_, open a terminal window type top
[11:42] <popey> google then
[11:42] <barbas> Is there anyway to mount a SMB or FTP remote server to the local filesystem and access from simple program like nano, vi, emacs etc? Is there any plant to have it included in ubuntu in the future?
[11:43] <ethan_> yea thats what i've been doing brer_rabbit
[11:43] <brer_rabbit> ethan_, look to see what is using all the resources
[11:43] <ethan_> ok i've got it open
[11:43] <brer_rabbit> you can also type free
[11:43] <brer_rabbit> and look at how its set up
[11:43] <barbas> Any info would be usefull
[11:43] <brer_rabbit> usually debian based systems run significantly faster then rh based systems
[11:43] <martin> I have an issue with vdr. When is tart it i see: vdr[12602] : ERROR: illegal OSD device handle (-1)! in the syslog
[11:43] <ekimus> barbas: mount -t smbfs //path/to/remote/server /path/to/mount/point (probably use sudo or edit your /etc/fstab accordingly)

[11:44] <ethan_> well sorry...
[11:44] <ethan_> ok so using about 263 megs out of 320..
[11:45] <popey> ethan_: paste your top in http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/ there
[11:45] <ekimus> ethan_: and that is a bad thing?
[11:45] <popey> and specify no syntax highlighting
[11:45] <ethan_> ok i'll try that
[11:45] <popey> then paste the link it gives here
[11:45] <popey> so we can see it
[11:45] <Bags> ekimus, Hi. Thanks for answering. I've got a very sick G4 here. I've been trying unsuccessfully for over a week now trying to put Ubuntu on it, now it won't boot.
[11:45] <Bags> I can't get to OF
[11:46] <sn0n> hey guys.. couple questions.. first.. does the ubuntu installer resize ntfs and setup a dualboot with windows easily? and second.. would my aol using friend be able to connect online? (i have no experience with linux and dialup connections)
[11:46] <Bags> ekimus, I can't get to the OF console
[11:46] <thewob> Hi, all. Has anyone a skystar 2 DVB-Card working correctly under Hoary?
[11:46] <brer_rabbit> ethan_, the 500mhz risc processor runs a bit slow but still should be able to function effectively
[11:46] <brer_rabbit> you have enough memory too
[11:46] <ekimus> Bags: holding c to boot the cdrom?
[11:46] <Bags> ekimus, nope
[11:47] <popey> sn0n: I don't think it can resize NTFS, no
[11:47] <teressa> hello all
[11:47] <ekimus> Bags: during boot up hold down (and keep your finger on it) c to boot from cdrom on a mac
[11:47] <kafeine> sn0n, aol is easy. ntfs resizing - not gonna happen
[11:47] <sn0n> well there went that convert
[11:47] <teressa> I finally got GTKpod working, yay!
[11:47] <teressa> But...
[11:47] <teressa> I have a question
[11:47] <ekimus> Bags: http://www.jacsoft.co.nz/Tech_Notes/Mac_Keys.shtml <-- have a look at these codes, they'll probably help
[11:47] <Srekel> Hi, can someone help me with Jam? I've got a very simple program that basically just does std::cout, and Jam fails when it tries to link it
[11:47] <kemik> sn0n:  resize your partition from windows using 3rd party software, and install after that
[11:47] <teressa> when I close GTKpod, I have it automatically unmounting, but it doesnt work
[11:47] <teressa> it crashes instead
[11:47] <teressa> What should I do?
[11:47] <Bags> ekimus, I've tried the c key
[11:48] <MrPockets> hey, to install Logon managers,  do i just copy the gigantic code that it comes with into the termanial?
[11:48] <popey> FaeWolfe: go ahead caller
[11:48] <Srekel> I get this error: main.o(.text+0x14): In function `main':
[11:48] <Srekel> : undefined reference to `std::cout'
[11:48] <sn0n> kemik, like Partition Magic or watever its called?
[11:48] <kemik> sn0n:  yes
[11:48] <popey> MrPockets: there should be some instructions there
[11:48] <popey> sn0n: yes, pm is aobut the best one
[11:48] <Bags> ekimus, I've also tried trying to boot to the boot menu, but no joy there either..
[11:48] <ethan_> popey,  I can't copy it
[11:48] <MrPockets> i dont see any, but ill check the website
[11:48] <salil> how to add a mobile phone file system ??
[11:49] <dbernar1> do youi know what the wildcard char is for aptitude, like sudo apt-get install junior-*, but in  aptitude?
[11:49] <ethan_> every time i select it, the processes move and the selection goes away
[11:49] <FaeWolfe> lol popey thank you   I know when you're running windows there is a way to find out how much of your system resources are free.......can you check that in ubuntu?
[11:49] <popey> ethan_: stop top with q
[11:49] <brer_rabbit> ethan control c then scroll up n copy
[11:49] <popey> FaeWolfe: top is good for that
[11:49] <ethan_> good that works
[11:49] <dannyu502_> seveas, ok im back. What can I possibbly do to fixmy problem?
[11:49] <ekimus> Bags: have you tried to burn another cd (often just the cd's are bad, i read on the forums that a guy let the ubuntu install run for more than 48 hours, it took that long because of read errors from a bad cd)
[11:49] <sn0n> lol
[11:49] <teressa> Finally, you have to set up gtkpod to "eject" the iPod when it is closed. To do this, create a new file called ~/.gtkpod/gtkpod.out (create the .gtkpod directory in your home directory first) containing the following text:
[11:49] <teressa> sudo /usr/bin/eject /dev/sda
[11:49] <teressa> That is what I used
[11:49] <FaeWolfe> popey.....top?
[11:49] <teressa> but it makes me Force quit
[11:49] <teressa> How should I change it??
[11:49] <salil> how do i add a mobile phone file system?? does anyone know..?
[11:49] <popey> FaeWolfe: open a terminal and type "top"
[11:50] <popey> salil: what phone?
[11:50] <FaeWolfe> popey...thank you
[11:50] <popey> FaeWolfe: no problem
[11:50] <egglet> hi guys, has anyone had problems getting totem to play dvds?
[11:50] <ethan_> right.
[11:50] <ekimus> anyone tried to get mezzo configured on ubuntu?
[11:50] <popey> FaeWolfe: there are nice gui type ones as well, but top does the job :D
[11:50] <teressa> Totem Xine?
[11:50] <ethan_> popey,  http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/338583
[11:50] <barbas> ekimus unfortunately I don't seem to have install smbmount in ubuntu hoary! I guess I have to install it from universe?
[11:51] <egglet> well, at the moment i've just got the default install
[11:51] <FaeWolfe> popey....as long as I can check, I don't mind if it's not a gui
[11:51] <popey> egglet: yes, I followed the instructinos at http://ubuntuguide.org
[11:51] <egglet> which is gstreamer i think
[11:51] <salil> popey: nokia n-gage
[11:51] <popey> FaeWolfe: cool
[11:51] <salil> popey: QD
[11:51] <Bags> ekimus, The installation seemed to be going really well. I got through to the part where it says it's now going to reboot into the Ubuntu OS and intall the rest of th epackages, but when it came back, all I got was a question mark. Then after a number of reboots, all I get is a black screen.
[11:51] <popey> salil: does it use a memory card? you can put that in a memory card reader and mount that. thats what i do with my nokia 6600
[11:51] <Exo0dus> #ubuntu-es

[11:52] <popey> FaeWolfe: I can *highly* recommend going through http://ubuntuguide.org/ <-- those steps
[11:53] <IcemanV9> salil: i just downloaded photos from the camera by using card reader this morning
[11:53] <salil> popey: yes it does.. but i don't have a memory card and i was wondering whether you could load it like a filesystem thru bluetoot
[11:53] <FaeWolfe> popey...I did      I still get errors
[11:53] <dannyu502_> Does anyone know what to do when "sudo modprobe ndiswrapper" gives you a message that says FATAL: Error inserting ndiswrapper (/lib/modules/2.6.10-5-686/kernel/drivers/net/ndiswrapper/ndiswrapper.ko): Operation not permitted

[11:53] <barbas> oh well got not time really but when I do I will do some more searching. thanks ekimus.
[11:53] <ethan_> popey,   Is there a specific process for the mouse?  Maybe increasing the niceness priority would help.  Because the mouse is freezing wayyy to much.. = /
[11:53] <popey> salil: I have a friend who uses bluetooth with his nokia6600 but it uses nfs and it's a bit messy
[11:53] <ilba7r> !fglrx
[11:54] <ubotu> extra, extra, read all about it, fglrx is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[11:54] <popey> ethan_: is it a touchpad or external mouse?
[11:54] <FaeWolfe> popey...I may have missed something, so I will wait till it has cooled off a bit here when I can think straight and then try again
[11:54] <ethan_> popey,   It is a touchpad on an iBook
[11:54] <egglet> thanks for the link popey, the site doesn't seem to be working, though
[11:54] <popey> FaeWolfe: good plan

[11:54] <dbernar1> ~n is the wildcard in aptitude.
[11:54] <FaeWolfe> popey tankies
[11:54] <funkyHat> sorry to be annoying, but can someone try and help me again with getting ALSA to work properly? it works fine but only one program can use it at a time

[11:54] <salil> popey: do you use bluetooth
[11:54] <ethan_> popey,   No i dont have one.. = (
[11:54] <ethan_> lol..
[11:55] <ilba7r> dannyu502 you might have a module with that name already
[11:55] <popey> salil: no, not on linux, because i have a memory card reader
[11:55] <popey> i might have a play now you've mentioned it :D
[11:55] <ilba7r> dannyu502 try uninstalling any old ndiswrapper first
[11:55] <ethan_> popey,   How long do you think it should take to shut down?
[11:55] <popey> dunno
[11:55] <popey> never used an apple laptop
[11:55] <salil> popey: it was giving me problems with windows too..
[11:55] <ethan_> well with yours how much
[11:55] <popey> salil: ditto!
[11:55] <salil> popey: it always connected on port 0....!!!
[11:56] <popey> salil: I've never got file transfer working well on bluetooth on windows
[11:56] <popey> maybe linux will be better for me :D
[11:56] <popey> i hope so
[11:56] <Goodspeed> on a fresh install of a server version what should i run first?
[11:56] <Goodspeed> apt-get install upgrade
[11:56] <ethan_> What sounds like a good time it should take to shut down...
[11:56] <popey> Goodspeed: apt-get update && apt-get upgrade
[11:56] <Goodspeed> anything else?
[11:56] <salil> popey: oh really.. .. it worked fine with mine.. but.. just that it always connected on port0.. i never could make it connect on the regular ports. !!
[11:57] <Goodspeed> like enabling universe?
[11:57] <popey> Goodspeed: depends what you want to install
[11:57] <salil> popey: can you help me with mplayer ....
[11:57] <sn0n> new question.. will ubuntu automatically use space unpartitioned (after using partition magic to make room) and setup the dual boot? (all from a n00b perspective)
[11:57] <Klementas> how can I get Epiphany to save passwords I type into web sites??
[11:57] <popey> salil: I don't use mplayer, only totem and xine
[11:57] <Goodspeed> i want to install HLDS
[11:57] <SBanner> hey, I have a dumb question, I just got my ubuntu cds and already have winXP on my comp. how do I go about partitioning my HD to have both on there?
[11:57] <popey> sn0n: it can kind of do that yes
[11:58] <salil> popey: oh..

[11:59] <SBanner> popey: where would I find it, and is it free?
[11:59] <ilba7r> anyone know if my font problems with firefox and only firefox could be attributed to not installing fglrx for my ATI Raedon card
[11:59] <ethan_> ok... popey   but not like 5 minutes?  Because with me it just took so long so i force shut down then it said error on hda3 about 100 times and wouldn't stop untill i kept the power button down... = /
[11:59] <popey> SBanner: apt-cache search ftpd   would be a good start
[11:59] <bigbootay> or totem.  never tried that one but it's in my menus
