[12:00] <mikebot> frank23: 'dc++' wasn't a good search term on the forums
[12:00] <LjL> delmar: so, is /dev/hda still the SATA drive, which also gets mapped to hda, or is it another drive?
[12:00] <arcanistherogue> hey, if i installed a game in WINE (Warcraft2) that plays in full screen, is there a command line switch I can give to run it in a window?
[12:00] <Stormx2> mikebot: Basicly, you can read data from ntfs. But anything that involves editing, adding, renaming, moving, deleting, and so forth, can't be done, because that *changes* the data. If you're talking about FTP, uploading will work absolutely fine from the ntfs partition

[12:00] <Arclite> I should go hand these 50 CDs out at McDonalds. :D
[12:00] <arcanistherogue> :D
[12:00] <delmar> LjL, two drives... SATA 250gig = /dev/sda  IDE 120gig = /dev/hda
[12:00] <RollyW> do i need a special app for watching dvd's?
[12:00] <LjL> delmar: (though hdparm-related howto, i'm afraid, usually involve IDE drives... if SATA drives are treated more like SCSI, i don't really know how much of it applies)
[12:00] <colm> what location?
[12:00] <colm> odat, what location?
[12:01] <mkyb14> RollyW try mplayer
[12:01] <Stormx2> arcanistherogue: not sure. Maybe ask the people in #winehq?
[12:01] <chuckyp> back I closed y accident
[12:01] <arcanistherogue> thanks
[12:01] <frank23> mikebot: I did the search and found the thread http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=28378&highlight=dc
[12:01] <delmar> LjL, i would expect the SATA to be way faster.. but here are the test results from each test...
[12:01] <LjL> delmar: well your IDE drive looks rougly right, judging from the hdparm output - but your SATA drive doesn't, or at least it would not if the output meant the same as with an IDE drive

[12:01] <jenda> wuzza best way to format a flash drive in FAT?
[12:01] <Stormx2> jenda: wuzza? :P
[12:02] <mkyb14> are there chat clients like aim yahoo etc that you can use in the terminal?
[12:02] <delmar> so the IDE is outperforming the SATA
[12:02] <odat> colm, yes
[12:02] <LjL> delmar: well at least both are way faster than my drives ;)
[12:02] <kywonder> someone help me a little with sytax? im in file manager for xubuntu and i need to set run action to like mplayer cue://file.cue:2.  mplayer "$@" works for regular avi files but cant figure this out
[12:02] <Stormx2> mkyb14: no idea. Let me see...
[12:02] <jenda> Stormx2: Ya, wuzza :)
[12:02] <delmar> LjL, oh i had it around the wrong way btw... the IDE is 250gig the SATA is 120gig.
[12:02] <mikebot> frank23: do i just paste '$ sudo cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.linuxdcpp.berlios.de:/cvsroot/linuxdcpp login' into terminal?
[12:02] <delmar> LjL, the 120gig SATA is my system drive.. so it would be nice to have that nice and fast...
[12:02] <RollyW> Will Totem not play dvd's?
[12:02] <jenda> RollyW: It will...
[12:02] <LjL> delmar: anyway, i think you could first try "sudo hdparm -c1 /dev/sda" (and then test again). don't hold me accountable though, messing with hdparm *could* cause trouble
[12:02] <jenda> !dvd
[12:02] <ubotu> DVD playing is possible in ubuntu. You may need libdvdcss2, which is available via http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages (section extras)
[12:02] <mkyb14> RollyW totem is a piece.  i use vlc
[12:03] <delmar> LjL, might be the difference in cache sizes.. i dunno what the cache specs are actually...
[12:03] <LjL> delmar: "-c 1" will enable 32-bit i/o
[12:03] <LjL> delmar: since apparently right now your drive is set for 16 bit
[12:03] <delmar> LjL, ok. lets try it. its a fresh install with nothing important anywhere so it wont hurt anything but.. time ..
[12:03] <colm> odat, you're right - no forecast tab...    NB - Forecasts are only available for some locations in the U.S.A,
[12:03] <colm> 		  Australia and the United Kingdom.
[12:04] <frank23> mikebot: yeah.. although I don't think the sudo is necessary and you need to have cvs installed
[12:04] <colm> #blush# paste...
[12:04] <priest> hello! I was reading tutorial on http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=408111 and i stopped at line "sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-$(uname -r)". can someone tell me which package shuld i download from this site: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/dapper/+source/linux-restricted-modules-2.6.15 ??? Or this package is already on ubuntu 5.10 installation cd? thanks
[12:04] <mikebot> frank23: what is cvs?
[12:04] <delmar> Ljl, failed.
[12:04] <delmar> setting 32-bit IO_support flag to 1
[12:04] <delmar>  HDIO_SET_32BIT failed: Invalid argument
[12:04] <mkyb14> Stormx2 , anything?
[12:04] <LjL> delmar: also, "-d1" will enable DMA. but then, i'm not sure if that will do anything with your drive, since DMA isn't even *mentioned* in the output
[12:04] <delmar> yeah
[12:05] <trpr42> priest: that uname -r ... part is a command. try it. the package with that version at the end of it
[12:05] <delmar> setting using_dma to 1 (on)
[12:05] <delmar>  HDIO_SET_DMA failed: Inappropriate ioctl for device
[12:05] <frank23> mikebot: its a program to manage source code. it will download the source of dc++ for you.
[12:05] <delmar> no go there either.
[12:05] <Stormx2> mkyb14: not sure. I know theres IRC clients for terminal, but not sure about IM protocols. Google it.
[12:05] <Mersault> is there an ubuntu package for mod_env for apache2? I need mod_env in order to get mythweb working properly.
[12:05] <mikebot> frank23: where do i get that?
[12:05] <mojota> Hello im running apache on ubuntu and i was wanting to create a ftp server to point to apache directory to upload / download / delete files well i tryed to install proftd and it works it will ask for a username / pw but i never can get it to login i was wondering if anyone could show me a config of proftpd that shows how to do a useraccount for a certain directory to upload / download / delete files
[12:05] <priest> trpr42 i dont understand, so i have to download anything or it's already on ubuntu cd and i only copy the command?
[12:06] <TheCrowX> hi everyone i m a linux noob i want to try ubunto what should i download livecd or install cd ?
[12:06] <eddi3> I have a problem, I started messing around with my partitions and completely screwed it up, I then tried reinstalling ubuntu but when I try to boot up, it can't start X and it stays in console. I was wondering how I can fix this
[12:06] <suryam> TheCrowX: live cd
[12:06] <frank23> mikebot use synaptic to install it or  do sudo apt-get install cvs
[12:06] <me2win> eddie?
[12:06] <me2win> bariyev?
[12:06] <dooglus> TheCrowX: to try it, live cd.  to install it, install cd.
[12:06] <colm> TheCrowX, download a liveCD to give you a flavour first - and check if your hardware is all recognised
[12:06] <frank23> mikebot: do you know how to use synaptic?
[12:06] <mkyb14> Stormx2 i found Centericq which says it does aim and yahoo as well.. just have to figure out if it's the right thing
[12:06] <dooglus> TheCrowX: the live cd runs quite slow - it can be less than impressive.  if you've got a spare partition to try it on, I'd recommend trying the install cd.
[12:06] <mikebot> frank23: synaptic, yes
[12:06] <me2win> eddi3:
[12:06] <mikebot> frank23: and 'sudo apt-get install cvs'
[12:07] <TheCrowX> Thanx to all :)  i m gonna download the install cd
[12:07] <mkyb14> exit
[12:07] <LjL> cheers wikipedia!
[12:07] <dooglus> colm: is the live CD any better at detecting hardware than the install CD?
[12:07] <mkyb14> has
[12:07] <frank23> mikebot: there are dcc clients available through synaptic but dc++ is much better than those.
[12:07] <me2win> eddi3: i know how to fix your problem
[12:08] <mikebot> frank23: yeha, i want dc++
[12:08] <eddi3> me2win, can I call you?
[12:08] <me2win> eddi3: fsck yeah
[12:08] <mikebot> frank23: so after the cvs thing, just paste in '$ sudo cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.linuxdcpp.berlios.de:/cvsroot/linuxdcpp login'
[12:08] <colm> dooglus, don't think so.  I remember old knoppix cd's used to be surprisingly good at it, but for ubuntu on this box and my laptop at least - liveCD==install for hardware support
[12:09] <frank23> mikebot yeah. follow the instructions in the forusm
[12:09] <mikebot> frank23: okay, thanks
[12:09] <dooglus> colm: so if you've got a spare partition, but not a fast connection, the install disk would probably be better than the live CD?  they're both about the same size...
[12:09] <mikebot> frank23: cvs login: warning: failed to open /home/michael/.cvspass for reading: No such file or directory
[12:10] <dooglus> colm: otherwise he's going to have to download them both once he finds that he's fallen in love...
[12:10] <mikebot> frank23: nevermind, nevermind
[12:10] <frank23> mikebot: I'm not sure...
[12:10] <godmachine81> how do you change the prompt prefix in a terminal?  like how it is default user@host : working directory #:      I want mine to be just host: working directory  $:
[12:10] <colm> he probably is going to love it!  but if he gets the liveCD first, he can give it to someone else when he's ready to install
[12:11] <demonstar> hey need some help
[12:11] <mikebot> frank23: i got that part
[12:11] <dooglus> godmachine81: edit ~/.bashrc and change the value for "PS1"
[12:11] <chuckyp> !ask
[12:11] <nickrud> demonstar: ask, someone may know
[12:12] <godmachine81> ok
[12:12] <godmachine81> thanks
[12:12] <delmar> LjL, hrm. another thought... arent SATA's supposed to run at 150 not 133?
[12:12] <chuckyp> !ubotu tell demonstar about ask
[12:12] <ClayG> anyone heard of FIDOnet?
[12:12] <demonstar> well I'm installing ubuntu over another distor and I'm partitioning the old partition and I get an error
[12:13] <nickrud> ClayG: oh, yeah, it was the bomb once
[12:13] <LjL> delmar: think so, not really sure...
[12:13] <LjL> ClayG: yeah
[12:13] <chuckyp> demonstar, what sort of error?
[12:13] <ClayG> is there anything like that now?I want to run a forum and have something like that for other sites that have similar content?
[12:13] <mikebot> frank23: wtf...
[12:13] <mikebot> Package libgtkmm-2.4-1 is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[12:13] <mikebot> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[12:13] <mikebot> is only available from another source
[12:13] <mikebot> However the following packages replace it:
[12:13] <mikebot>   libgtkmm-2.4-1c2
[12:13] <mikebot> E: Package libgtkmm-2.4-1 has no installation candidate
[12:13] <mikebot> fuck, sorry for spamming
[12:13] <ClayG> I liked CelerityNEt over Fido but was using it as an example
[12:13] <demonstar> gives a file (some azureus plugin) and it complains about it being 4786k, but it has 178 clusters (5696k)
[12:14] <demonstar> and it says ignore or cancle
[12:14] <chuckyp> ClayG, what about phpbb
[12:14] <ClayG> that is forum software, woudlnt i need an extra mod?
[12:14] <delmar> LjL, spotted this line in dmesg.. ata1: dev 0 ATA, max UDMA/133, 234441648 sectors: lba48
[12:14] <chuckyp> demonstar, are you just removing the partitions first then writing new ones?
[12:14] <ClayG> i like SMF better, but if phpBB is the only one that can do it, i will use it.
[12:14] <RAPIST> wikipedia has reached it's 1000000th article in the english version
[12:14] <RAPIST> !wikipedia
[12:14] <ubotu> No idea, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, RAPIST
[12:14] <RAPIST> !botsnack
[12:14] <ubotu> thanks rapist :)
[12:14] <ClayG> i want to download wikipedia
[12:14] <ClayG> or buy it
[12:14] <delmar> LjL, gonna go afk a while. back soon.
[12:14] <demonstar> chuckyp well I'm just reformating the old partition
[12:15] <frank23> mikebot: dont paste like that in the channel.  install that libgtkmm-2.4-1c2 instead
[12:15] <Mersault> I'm having trouble finding mod_env for ubuntu in order to make mythweb work properly, anyone know the ins and outs of getting mod_env on ubuntu?
[12:15] <chuckyp> demonstar, try just removing the partitions
[12:15] <LjL> ClayG: don't think you can buy it =) i suppose you can make a donation
[12:15] <demonstar> chuckyp, what should I do about the error hit ignore or cancel?
[12:15] <ClayG> oh well
[12:15] <ClayG> guess i can just wget it
[12:15] <yggdrasil> how can i make my ssh not time out
[12:15] <yggdrasil> if i log in to my box it kicks me after like 10 m
[12:15] <ClayG> yggdrasil, doesnt ssh have a switch to change it
[12:15] <yggdrasil> server or client ?
[12:16] <chuckyp> yggdrasil, configure ssh i dunno /etc/ssh.conf
[12:16] <yggdrasil> hmm ill try
[12:16] <LjL> ClayG: yeah, it'll be quite big though i think... on the other hand, their servers are so slow that downloading it locally could probably have some value =)
[12:16] <chuckyp> yggdrasil, /etc/ssh/ssh_config
[12:16] <demonstar> yggdrasil has a gp32....
[12:17] <dooglus> godmachine81: is that OK?
[12:17] <yggdrasil> demonstar huh ?
[12:17] <trpr42> priest: just copy the command
[12:18] <demonstar> yggdrasil, i've seen your name before, believe on gp32x.. could be wrong
[12:18] <yggdrasil> oh hehe ..
[12:18] <yggdrasil> no maybe somone else there afew of us
[12:18] <yggdrasil> gp32x hmm..
[12:19] <yggdrasil> #dishnetwork ////??
[12:19] <yggdrasil> if anywhere
[12:19] <mikebot> frank23: i don't follow some of these instructions
[12:19] <yggdrasil> hmm no options
[12:19] <yggdrasil> oh well
[12:19] <RollyW> hmm, i am having issues installing VLC
[12:19] <frank23> mikebot: what do you mean?
[12:19] <neiras> hey there - I'd like to remove all packages installed from universe/multiverse, as well as removing all backports and 3rd-party repositories. What's the proper way to go about this?
[12:20] <doncestnik> quick question for anyone that can help Im installing ubuntu on a friends laptop and it has a triton vidcard while it is installing only a portion about 300by300 in the center of the screen is showing
[12:20] <nickrud> neiras: the easy way is to set up your sources with only the ones you want, start synaptic, and remove 'local and obsolete packages'
[12:20] <mikebot> frank23: well, the part where it says i need ' libgtk2.0-dev' etc., i'm not sure which i have the terminal only lists 3 and says it can't d/l one (so i downloaded the one it suggests instead in synaptic)
[12:20] <doncestnik> anyone have any experience with the cards
[12:20] <Fiscal> exit
[12:20] <nickrud> neiras: do an update after changing sources, of course
[12:20] <colm> doncestnik, start by trying ctrl+alt+numplus
[12:20] <neiras> thanks nickrud
[12:20] <mikebot> frank23: but now i have to go to a website and download libglade2.4, and the website (http://www.zentek-international.com/mirrors/gnome/sources/libglade/2.4/) has a lot of files
[12:21] <doncestnik> alright thank you very much, i was hoping it would be something simple since triton is pretty obscure
[12:21] <frank23> mikebot I never had to do that...
[12:21] <theine> mikebot, libglade is also available in synaptic
[12:22] <aurora> i want to have some stuff in my user dir get served by apache2 in breezy, but i can't figure out how to do it... i was hoping to use the "group" permissions thingy and keep the other pc users out of it
[12:22] <mikebot> well i don't even know if i need it now
[12:22] <theine> mikebot, i thought you have to go and download libglade2.4
[12:23] <RollyW> could someone give me a hand installing a dvd player?
[12:23] <mikebot> theine: i do, but 2.4 isn't in synaptic
[12:23] <theine> mikebot, what about libglade2-dev? that is in synaptic
[12:23] <mikebot> theine: well libglademm-2.4-lc2 is
[12:23] <mikebot> theine: and that one
[12:23] <mikebot> theine: is that the same as libglade2.4?
[12:24] <xcc> /bin/sh: bad interpreter: Permission denied - I will install any pacckage 2 fix this?
[12:24] <theine> mikebot, i'd try install installing libglade2-dev and see...
[12:24] <mikebot> theine: okay
[12:24] <doncestnik> colm well im off to go see if it finished but thank you again
[12:25] <demonstar> chuckyp, should I set my windows partitions to do not use this partition?
[12:26] <amyn> how do i install gcc in my ubuntu ?
[12:26] <LjL> amyn: "sudo aptitude install build-essential"
[12:26] <theine> amyn, sudo apt-get install gcc
[12:27] <theine> amyn, or use Synaptic package manager
[12:27] <aboapri> hey, does anyone know why I would see an unrecognized mac address in my dhcp clients list?
[12:27] <tritium> amyn: you'd be better off doing "sudo apt-get install build-essential"
[12:27] <ELpH95o> Are there any other distros similar to ubuntu?
[12:28] <frank23> ELpH95o: similar in what way? kubuntu is very similar
[12:28] <FliesLikeABrick> anyone here use kontact?
[12:28] <aboapri> debian
[12:28] <ELpH95o> I like FreeBSD tooo
[12:29] <aboapri> have you tried debian's bsd?
[12:29] <ELpH95o> debians bsd?
[12:29] <amyn> thanks
[12:29] <nickrud> aboapri: talk about obsure 
[12:29] <ELpH95o> that sounds interesting
[12:29] <ELpH95o> does it have 'make install" and stuff like that
[12:29] <positron> How do I set sshd not to kill connections no matter how long they have been idle?
[12:30] <aboapri> I have not actually tried it.    but if you like both ubuntu and bsd, it might be just the ticket.
[12:30] <aboapri> think it is still rather immature at the moment though.
[12:30] <theine> ELpH95o, all OS have (or can have) make install
[12:30] <aboapri> can dos?
[12:30] <aboapri> what about geos?
[12:31] <theine> aboapri, freedos for sure
[12:31] <ELpH95o> how long does it take to install ubuntu?
[12:31] <ELpH95o> i meant gentoo
[12:31] <aboapri> years.
[12:31] <mikebot> 'bash: cd: /home/michael/src/libglade-2.4*: No such file or directory'
[12:31] <mikebot> wtf
[12:31] <aboapri> I installed gentoo the other day.  it took forever.
[12:31] <LjL> ELpH95o: ubuntu certainly takes shorter than gentoo =)
[12:31] <h3ax> mm
[12:31] <aboapri> And then, I am so dumb, that the network was broke by the time I got it installed.
[12:31] <sdfzx> why is it i cant play mp3 file in rythmbox?
[12:32] <aboapri> worked while it was live, broke after installation.
[12:32] <nickrud> !mp3
[12:32] <ubotu> mp3 is, like, a non-free format. To enable mp3 capability, read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[12:32] <WebLOCH> hey guys,i need help understanding xorg.conf for a new graphics card and monitor ive got, its a geforce 6200 but id ont think its configured  correctly in the conf, and a dell 2405fp which wont reach any of it's higher resolutions :(
[12:32] <sdfzx> aw
[12:32] <swim> hey folks, can anyone tell me where I can find a list of what repos I should be using on breezy to have the latest packages with breezy?
[12:32] <theine> mikebot, /home/michael/src/libglade-2.4* doesn't seem to exist, so what?
[12:32] <h3ax> Error 2002: can't connect to local MySql server through socket /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)
[12:32] <h3ax> ^^
[12:32] <mikebot> theine: why doesn't it exist?
[12:32] <h3ax> any ideers
[12:33] <theine> mikebot, why should it exist?
[12:33] <LjL> !tell swim about easysource
[12:33] <demonstar> webloch you need to edit the xorg.conf, their is a tool to do it but I forget what it's called. You also have to install the drivers
[12:33] <mikebot> theine: cause this guide says it should
[12:33] <swim> thx LjL
[12:33] <bimberi> positron: you need to work with the file /etc/ssh/sshd_config, doint a 'man sshd_config' and searching on 'Alive' should get you to the relevant bits
[12:33] <WebLOCH> demonstar, LjL ive already installed the drivers, its the conf that seems to be incorrect
[12:33] <LjL> swim: you probably want main, universe, multiverse, security, bugfixes and backports
[12:33] <bimberi> *doing
[12:33] <theine> mikebot, what about libglade2-dev? didn't work with that?
[12:34] <TheCrowX> does ubuntu comes with gnome or kde ??
[12:34] <demonstar> webloch, I went through this, I forget the command
[12:34] <bimberi> TheCrowX: gnome
[12:34] <nickrud> gnome, TheCrowX
[12:34] <mikebot> theine: i don't know
[12:34] <frank23> mikebot: it would only exist if you had gotten the package from http://www.zentek-international.com/mirrors/gnome/sources/libglade/2.4/ . try to understand what the guide says you're doing
[12:34] <WebLOCH> demonstar, dpkg-reconfigure packagename
[12:34] <LjL> WebLOCH: i can probably paste you my xorg.conf, except i'm not on ubuntu right now... but i think i can get to it anyway
[12:34] <tritium> TheCrowX: but kde can be installed very easily
[12:34] <TheCrowX> what's better for a noob kde or gnome ?
[12:34] <mikebot> frank23: i don't think i know enough about ubuntu to follow such a guide
[12:34] <aboapri> or just get kubuntu
[12:34] <demonstar> dpkg-reconfigure xorg.conf I belive...

[12:34] <WebLOCH> LjL, that might be handy, do you have a 6200?
[12:34] <pete_> can somone tell me what that means
[12:34] <aboapri> I think it is a matter of taste.
[12:35] <TheCrowX> then i have to download kubuntu tritium
[12:35] <theine> mikebot, what is this guide about anyway?
[12:35] <LjL> WebLOCH: no, i've got a 5200 -- whose drivers installed and work flawlessy
[12:35] <nickrud> sudo dpkg-xserver xserver.xorg demonstar
[12:35] <demonstar> webloch, you have to make sure your moniter supports it too
[12:35] <mikebot> theine: installing dc++
[12:35] <aboapri> Personally I prefer Gnome.
[12:35] <nickrud> demonstar: you may also need to check your monitor vertrefresh and horizsync
[12:35] <aboapri> neither is difficult to use.
[12:35] <frank23> mikebot: everyone starts somewhere. I agree that its not as easy as installing stuff with synaptic
[12:35] <pedro> hi! i am trying to install the xorg configuration tool (xorgconfig), but cant find the package! can you help me?
[12:35] <theine> mikebot, can you give me link to that?
[12:35] <Stormx2> I might give kubuntu another go
[12:35] <demonstar> nickrud, webloch is having the problem
[12:35] <nickrud> demonstar: I just got that 
[12:35] <WebLOCH> demonstar, ljl I have a geforce 6200 and a dell 2405fp,  the graphics card works up to 1600x1200 but it should provide up to 1920x1200
[12:36] <swim> LjL, this look ok? http://pastebin.ca/44162
[12:36] <nickrud> WebLOCH: you may need to put your horizsync & vertrefresh in by hand, check the ubotu link below
[12:36] <nickrud> !fixres
[12:36] <ubotu> Please read http://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[12:36] <demonstar> webloch, check what your moniter can support
[12:36] <bimberi> pedro: 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' does that
[12:36] <jessid> hello. some of you know how can I validate an user against a proxy to use synaptic?
[12:36] <mikebot> theine: yeah, http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=28378&highlight=dc
[12:36] <Acer8200> Hello, I want to install ubuntu 5.10 on my acer822... but X wont't start?
[12:36] <WebLOCH> demonstar, 1920x1200 hence my attempts to reach it
[12:36] <LjL> swim: looks about right
[12:36] <frank23> does gnome have a menu editor yet?
[12:37] <swim> thx LjL
[12:37] <Stormx2> i liked the look of k3b a lot :)
[12:37] <Acer8200> I tryed a livecd
[12:37] <WebLOCH> ty nickrud  im checkin
[12:37] !lilo:*! Whoops, apologies to everyone who replied to me that I haven't been able to respond to. It's been one of those days. Very impressive, though, English Wikipedia now has over a million articles.
[12:37] <demonstar> axeer8200, what is your graphics card?
[12:37] <Seveas> frank23, alacarte
[12:37] <Stormx2> frank23: It always had a menu editor
[12:37] <mikebot> frank23: well i've done some stuff with synaptic, i got a weather thing for my panel, and someon other stuff
[12:37] <Acer8200> demonstart ATI X1600 512MB
[12:37] <Stormx2> frank23: Right click a menu > edit menu :P
[12:37] <nickrud> WebLOCH: and, to beat it into the ground, be _SURE_ you use the right data for your monitor
[12:37] <pedro> bimberi, yeah, but i still get problems with my monitor... i maneged to configure it with that tool... i dunno my Hz settings...
[12:37] <frank23> Stormx2: always? gnome in hoary sure didn't
[12:37] <demonstar> acer8200 that should be "supported"
[12:37] <h3ax> Error 2002: can't connect to local MySql server through socket /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2) | so translated what dose this exactly mean ?
[12:37] <ELpH95o> i thought bout trying xandros
[12:37] <Stormx2> frank23: It was optional then :P
[12:38] <theine> mikebot, so did you install all those packages (libglademm-2, libgtkmm-2.4-1,...)?
[12:38] <aboapri> isn't xandros commercial?
[12:38] <bimberi> pedro: oh, ok, sorry i don't know where xorgconfig is, you could do a contents search on http://packages.ubuntu.com
[12:38] <aboapri> don't pay for linux, there's no point.
[12:38] <RAPIST> FUCK
[12:38] <LjL> WebLOCH: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9605
[12:38] <Seveas> h3ax, that you need to install the mysql server
[12:38] <LjL> RAPIST: sorry?
[12:38] <positron> bimberi: thanks
[12:38] <Acer8200> demonstart: and I also tryed the latest development version
[12:38] <mikebot> theine: i don't know
[12:38] <demonstar> Ubuntu gives CDs for free
[12:38] <pedro> bimberi, ok, i'll try! thanks
[12:38] <frank23> Stormx2: no they released gnome 2.10 with no menu editor. some guy made an editor and posted it in the forums because of that
[12:38] <mikebot> theine: i've typed everything its said, but i get different replies from terminal
[12:38] <theine> mikebot, at what step does it fail?
[12:39] <WebLOCH> LjL, yours doesnt have GLcore loaded?
[12:39] <Seveas> Stormx2, that editor is now smeg/alacarte and is the defaut in ubuntu
[12:39] <bimberi> jessid: does setting it in System -> Preferences -> Network Proxy work? (click on the Details button to enter un/pw)
[12:39] <h3ax> Seveas =), heh. i already did that thats why i asked.. it definatly confused me since i where pretty sure that was what it meant
[12:39] <sdfzx> does rythmbox support .wma?
[12:39] <bimberi> positron np :)
[12:39] <mikebot> theine: um
[12:39] <LjL> WebLOCH: hm, apparently, not... don't know much about this kind of thing, but i can tell you that OpenGL does work
[12:39] <aboapri> wma sucks
[12:39] <Seveas> h3ax, are you on dapper?
[12:39] <jessid> bimberi yes, they work, but doesnt work in synaptic...
[12:39] <mikebot> theine: i'm going to start over, and tell you what it says
[12:40] <h3ax> nop Ubuntu 5.10
[12:40] <h3ax> seveas
[12:40] <LjL> WebLOCH: (and i don't mean in software mode)
[12:40] <sdfzx> ahehhee
[12:40] <jessid> some body told me to edit /etc/environment
[12:40] <jessid> , is that true, bimberi
[12:40] <theine> mikebot, that guide is pretty bad by the way
[12:40] <WebLOCH> LjL, okay, this is all very confusing
[12:40] <Stormx2> Seveas: Indeed. When did it become alacarte, and why?
[12:40] <mikebot> theine: hehe okay
[12:40] <moonlite> ive got an irssi-session always running on another computer which i ssh to and attach to (using screen) this has been working nicely for some years now. However ubuntu uses utf-8 as a default charset, which is great in general but also means my swedish friends will put me on their ignore-lists. How do i set gnome-terminal to use iso8859-1 for a particular session?
[12:40] <demonstar> sdfzx, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats?action=show&redirect=wma should have it
[12:40] <sdfzx> okies thanks
[12:40] <demonstar> sdfzx, or tell you what to do
[12:40] <mikebot> theine: wait, bad as in hard to understand, or bad as in i shouldn't follow it
[12:40] <h3ax> ive been having helluva lot of truble both with Mysql and trying to set up FTP on the other hand it seems harder than i initially thought
[12:40] <Seveas> Stormx2, in dapper - because smeg means something weird in a few languages
[12:41] <Stormx2> Seveas: :P
[12:41] <LjL> WebLOCH: well i haven't even tried to reach such a high resolution as the one you want (my screen wouldn't support it anyway), so i wouldn't really know if there is something specific with very high resolutions
[12:41] <mikebot> theine: when i do the first things in that code box, i get for the second line : 'cvs checkout: warning: failed to open /home/michael/.cvspass for reading: Permission denied'
[12:41] <theine> mikebot, it won't do major harm to your system...
[12:41] <mikebot> theine: but then it updates some thigns before that
[12:41] <LjL> WebLOCH: only thing i can possibly think of is that your X is detecting too little RAM on your gfx board
[12:41] <aboapri> smeg is a sweet word from Red Dwarf!!!!   \m/
[12:41] <bimberi> jessid: yes it would be. You need an entry like 'http_proxy=http://username:password@address.of.proxy:port'
[12:41] <sdfzx> anyway i have 600MB available space, can i still install KDE?
[12:41] <LjL> WebLOCH: perhaps you could try "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" and set the rigth amount manually
[12:41] <theine> mikebot, the warning about .cvspass is perfectly normal
[12:42] <colm> surely it was smeg the swear word worked backwards to menu-editor...  lol
[12:42] <Klick_> hey all, whats a good wifi manager program?
[12:42] <s-wx> Whats wrong with ca.archive.ubuntu.org?
[12:42] <jessid> aaaah OK! thanks a lot...I will try it... good bye bimberi
[12:42] <mikebot> theine: okay
[12:42] <Acer8200> what can I do if my X won't start after install?
[12:42] <GeorgeAScott> how do i reformat an aditional drive?
[12:42] <WebLOCH> LjL, yeah giving that a go now
[12:43] <frank23> s-wx: I don't know... change to another country
[12:43] <Seveas> Klick_, network-manager - only available in dapper though
[12:43] <h3ax> Seveas i started trying out from my prior experiance to install it.. but when all failed continuosly i turned to the Guide placed at Ubuntu.com|wiki but still i get some errors i can't seem to fix, maybe i am stupid i dunno =)
[12:43] <Seveas> h3ax, sudo /etc/init.d/mysql start
[12:43] <Seveas> maybe it's not started yet
[12:43] <Klick_> Seveas, i tried network-mnager and it didnt work kepts saying something about unknown user bind.. know of any others or know how i can fix network-manager
[12:43] <frank23> Seveas: Klick_ network-manager is in breezy
[12:43] <Seveas> frank23, not a really working version of it...
[12:44] <mikebot> theine: as for the long line of code, i get: Package libgtkmm-2.4-1 is not available, but is referred to by another package.          This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or          is only available from another source           However the following packages replace it:         libgtkmm-2.4-1c2         E: Package libgtkmm-2.4-1 has no installation candidate
[12:44] <sdfzx> anyway i have only 600MB available space, can i still install KDE?
[12:44] <frank23> Seveas: oh. I never really used it
[12:44] <Klick_> frank23, what do you use
[12:44] <Seveas> mikebot, use a pastebin for pasting...
[12:44] <LjL> sdfzx: you can install KDE, but probably not the complete kubuntu-desktop
[12:44] <frank23> Seveas: will it be in main?
[12:44] <Seveas> sdfzx, I doubt it
[12:44] <aboapri> If you are that short on space, I would go with xfce
[12:44] <sdfzx> aw
[12:44] <Seveas> frank23, hopefully
[12:44] <LjL> sdfzx: anyway, that's really little space for venturing to install KDE
[12:44] <theine> mikebot, in that line, replace libgtkmm-2.4-1 by libgtkmm-2.4-1c2 and try again
[12:44] <sdfzx> :(
[12:44] <sdfzx> too bad
[12:44] <frank23> Klick_: I use kwifimanager
[12:45] <mikebot> theine: okay
[12:45] <sdfzx> i think i have to resize my drive
[12:45] <theine> mikebot, does it work?
[12:45] <Klick_> frank23, do you know why kwifi crashed for me whenver i scan for networks
[12:46] <mojota> does anyone know a guide step by step on setting up proftpd config for a certain user to only be able to access the directory i set the user path to so the user can upload / download / delete?
[12:46] <demonstar> whats that program called that installs a lot of stuff for ubuntu, like automatrix or something
[12:46] <frank23> Klick_: I don't know. works fine for me. It might be related to your specific wireless network driver
[12:46] <mikebot> theine: Package libglademm-2.4-1 is not available, but is referred to by another package.   This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or   is only available from another source   However the following packages replace it:     libglademm-2.4-1c2   E: Package libglademm-2.4-1 has no installation candidate
[12:46] <LjL> !tell demonstar about automatix
[12:47] <demonstar> ljl, what should I use?
[12:47] <LjL> !tell demonstar about easyubuntu
[12:47] <theine> mikebot, in the same line, replace libglademm-2.4-1 by libglademm-2.4-1c2 and try again
[12:47] <demonstar> ljl, thanks
[12:47] <Seveas> demonstar, or even better: just your brain 
[12:47] <demonstar> seveas, I'm lazy
[12:47] <theine> mikebot, do you see a pattern?
[12:47] <sdfzx> i have 1gb for my swap area and i want to resize it to make it smaller so that my ext3 will have additional space.. is it possible to repartion without reinstalling ubuntu?
[12:48] <sdfzx> i mean repartition hehe
[12:48] <mikebot> theine: ah, this time it asked me if i want to extract them and stuff, and i pressed 'y'
[12:48] <LjL> sdfzx: i think parted/gparted/qtparted can do that, but it won't be wholly safe
[12:48] <theine> mikebot, good
[12:48] <cew> Greetings Earthlings
[12:48] <mjr> sdfzx, in addition to what LjL said, you can't have the filesystem in use when you repartition, so you'll have to use a live cd or something
[12:48] <sdfzx> aw
[12:49] <sdfzx> okey
[12:49] <sdfzx> ill try
[12:49] <cew> Ubuntu ROCKS
[12:49] <sdfzx> good luck to me hehe
[12:49] <rics> Is there a way to make the fonts in AMSN become more nice?
[12:49] <sdfzx> brb
[12:49] <rics> Its horrible now!
[12:50] <amyn> there is no ipfw in ubuntu ??
[12:50] <cew> Hello
[12:50] <theine> mikebot, skip the part marked as "appearently unnecessary" by the author (who is crazy because he suggests to use "sudo ./configure"...)
[12:50] <Acer8200> ATI Mobility Radeon X1600 512MB, is this card supported? my X won't start :-(
[12:50] <cew> I just started using ubuntu and it is GREAT
[12:50] <h3ax> ...Failed Please take a look at the syslog. /usr/bin/mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed. error: 'Can't connect to local MySql server Through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)'.

[12:50] <LjL> theine: wow
[12:50] <mikebot> theine: haha, i don't see that part
[12:51] <LordKhaine> easier if you set it to vesa to load x, and then sort out the drivers
[12:51] <RollyW> what is apt-get?
[12:51] <LjL> !tell rollyw about apt
[12:51] <demonstar> acer8200 most ati cards work, but not all work with acceleration
[12:51] <mikebot> theine: oh okay
[12:51] <demonstar> or the official drivers
[12:51] <amyn> theine,  where's ipfw in ubuntu ?
[12:51] <theine> amyn, ?
[12:51] <theine> mikebot, so are all those package installed?
[12:52] <mikebot> yeah, i just did sudo scons
[12:52] <demonstar> acer8200 go to the ati website and see if they have a linux installer
[12:52] <ELpH95o> cew, :You are correct Ubuntu does rock
[12:52] <theine> mikebot,  no!!
[12:52] <Acer8200> demonstart: should I make changes in xorg.conf?
[12:52] <biovore> amyn: try iptables
[12:52] <mikebot> theine: shit!
[12:52] <ELpH95o> I can't wait til the next release is out
[12:52] <mikebot> theine: haha what do i do
[12:52] <ELpH95o> I'm tempted to install the beta of it ow
[12:52] <amyn> ok letme check
[12:52] <Acer8200> demonstart:ok thanks
[12:52] <demonstar> acer8200 x doesn't start right?
[12:52] <theine> mikebot, just kidding, but you should have used "scons" instead of "sudo scons"
[12:52] <Acer8200> demonstart: no
[12:52] <LjL> what's scons anyway?
[12:53] <theine> mikebot, "sudo scons" is even more crazy than "sudo ./configure"
[12:53] <demonstar> acer8200, so you jsut start up in a terminal
[12:53] <amyn> biovore, thanks
[12:53] <Acer8200> demonstart: yes
[12:53] <frank23> mikebot theine: yeah the guy who wrote that had no idea where sudo was necessary so he seemed to put it everywhere.
[12:53] <demonstar> acer8200, card onbaord?
[12:53] <theine> LjL, scons is a newish build system based on python that's supposed to be a replacement for autotools
[12:53] <Acer8200> demonstar: it is a laptop
[12:53] <demonstar> acer8200 so it's onboard
[12:53] <chuckyp> long and short you shouldn't need sudo for ./configure or make but you will need it for make instlal.
[12:54] <LjL> theine: a replacement for autotools? would be about time. worse than autotools, or much worse than autotools?
[12:54] <Acer8200>  demonstar:yes
[12:54] <mikebot> theine: haha okay
[12:54] <cew> I have installed it on aT20 IBM a D600 Dell a D410 Dell all worked great No cmd line cfg recognized all hardware including wireless
[12:54] <mikebot> theine: but it does the same thing?
[12:54] <LjL> chuckyp: or even better for "sudo checkinstall" ;)
[12:54] <theine> LjL, i heard it's better

[12:57] <iceman> is there a command line to have ubuntu fix missing installed programs ... if you get a error from the cd ...
[12:57] <Unfrgiven> is anyone else having problems restarting gdm after an update (just minutes ago)? libpango1.0 had a post install error.
[12:57] <mikebot> theoh, i guess it's ldcpp
[12:57] <mikebot> theine: i think i got it
[12:58] <mikebot> theine: do i need to do that menu editor part?
[12:58] <frank23> iceman: you had errors during installation?
[12:58] <demonstar> okay, now I need to get the respos and stuff for ubuntu
[12:58] <nekostar> hey
[12:58] <nekostar> any raid heads out here?
[12:58] <theine> mikebot, i'd just add a panel launcher
[12:58] <nekostar> large set raid heads
[12:58] <nekostar> like raid 50 or so????????
[12:58] <mikebot> theine: how do i do that?
[12:58] <Unfrgiven> frank23: did iceman report similar errors to what i just did?
[12:59] <iceman> frank23 some reason i had a missed read of a file on 2x cd installs, like the cd is running to fast at install for a clean read,
[12:59] <frank23> mikebot: did you try if dcpp works?
[12:59] <nekostar> raid 50 + afs ?
[12:59] <frank23> Unfrgiven: I dont know
[12:59] <theine> mikebot, i haven't used gnome in quite a while, so i can't tell you the exact steps
[12:59] <xcc> how install libGL.so?
[01:00] <theine> mikebot, but i'm sure somebody else will be able to help you with that
[01:00] <frank23> iceman:  you can try sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop  to make sure everything is installed.  I'm assuming its ubuntu you installed
[01:00] <demonstar> xcc do you have your graphics card driver installed\?
[01:00] <brokengun> hey, i need to learn some bash
[01:00] <iceman> Unfrgiven my error was at the cd install stage .... DVD / CD-RW read error ...
[01:00] <bimberi> xcc: find its package by doing a contents search on http://packages.ubuntu.com, then install using apt-get/synaptic/aptitude
[01:00] <Unfrgiven> iceman: oh ok. differen problem to what im having then
[01:00] <mikebot> theine: do you use kde?
[01:00] <theine> mikebot, yes
[01:00] <brokengun> does anyone have any good resources for this? i am going to google for some but i was wondering if anyone would reccomend something inparticular
[01:01] <mikebot> theine: why doy ou use it over gnome?
[01:01] <xcc> demonstar, i dont now ((( how control it?
[01:01] <iceman> frank23 ok, yea ubuntu installed ... but i cannot get a volume control to appear on the panal
[01:01] <bimberi> ubotu tell brokengun about cli
[01:01] <xcc> demonstar, i dont know ((( how control it?
[01:01] <ELpH95o> anyone here running dapper yet?
[01:01] <IdleOne>  go to #ubuntu+1 for Dapper help :-)
[01:01] <frank23> iceman: I don't know much about gnome
[01:01] <theine> mikebot, mainly because i despise the gnome window manager (metacity)
[01:01] <ELpH95o> i'm thinking about taking the test :D
[01:01] <GeorgeAScott> gparted isn't recognizing my ntfs partition... that i want to reformat
[01:02] <mikebot> theine: metacity? what is that?
[01:02] <cew> TEST
[01:02] <bimberi> failed :P
[01:02] <demonstar> xcc what graphics card do you have?
[01:02] <xfce> ubuntu+1.... aptly named
[01:02] <theine> mikebot, the gnome window manager
[01:02] <theine> mikebot, the standard one that is
[01:03] <iceman> frank23 i just finished a kubuntu-desktop install ... so i'll run kde .... :) maybe i can get a volume control there
[01:03] <dooglus> ELpH95o: dapper's working pretty well, but still changing a lot.
[01:03] <roberto_> c/lose
[01:03] <joao> any body know how to configure Pinnacle 100i?
[01:03] <mikebot> theine: i have kde, but i like the way this looks more
[01:03] <mikebot> theine: could i make kde look more like this?
[01:03] <Xoritor> anyone here using dapper 64bit tried to play nwn?
[01:03] <theine> mikebot, yeah, i like the gnome looks better too
[01:03] <Xoritor> it was working last week... updated and bang no love
[01:03] <xfce> xoritor goodluck
[01:03] <amyn> ubuntu supports rpm system? or is it like mandrake or slackware?
[01:03] <xfce> ask in #ubuntu+1
[01:03] <GeorgeAScott> nevrmind. i fixed it
[01:03] <Xoritor> xfce, worked great until yesterday ;-)
[01:04] <ljl> amyn: doesn't mandrake use RPMs?
[01:04] <xfce> wish I could help you more
[01:04] <demonstar> linux > school
[01:04] <ljl> amyn: anyway no, ubuntu is APT based.
[01:04] <amyn> i dont know whats why im askin here
[01:04] <amyn> APT?
[01:04] <mikebot> theine: i would rather use kde, cause you can change the size of the required menus on the bottom
[01:04] <demonstar> ljl, I thinks it does
[01:04] <theine> mikebot, anyway, if you want to own the files under ~/linuxdcpp, do "cd ~/linuxdcpp && sudo chown -R michael:michael *"
[01:04] <Xoritor> xfce, thx
[01:04] <steve_b> will it be possible to upgrade from breezy to dapper with apt?
[01:04] <xcc> ati radeon mobility 920O sapphire
[01:04] <mikebot> theine: will this dc++ thing i just installed work in kde too?
[01:04] <LjL> steve_b: sure
[01:04] <theine> mikebot, it sure will
[01:04] <LjL> !tell amyn about apt
[01:04] <demonstar> xcc, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI
[01:04] <xcc> demonstar, ati radeon mobility 920O sapphire
[01:04] <xfce> theine check out valknut
[01:05] <aboapri> apt is better than rpm
[01:05] <xfce> it works wonders
[01:05] <aboapri> it has super cow powers.
[01:05] <frank23> steve_b: of course ;)
[01:05] <demonstar> xcc not sure if it is supported tho
[01:05] <theine> xfce, what's that?
[01:05] <mikebot> theine: mayeb i should use that instead
[01:05] <demonstar> xcc ask if it's supported
[01:05] <xfce> it is a client for dc++ for kde
[01:05] <daverag> Anybody knows how to make a gnome-terminal always appear with transset applied on it?
[01:05] <theine> xfce, that's probably of interest to mikebot, but thanks
[01:06] <Daramarak> Could anyone help me to get my WLan card working. Im a newbie to Ubuntu and Linux
[01:06] <xfce> sorry wrong nick
[01:06] <xfce> I apologize
[01:06] <theine> xfce, no harm done :)
[01:06] <xfce> mikebot check out valknut
[01:06] <LjL> amyn: Debian and its derivative distribution use the APT package management systems. packages are ".deb" files, but you don't usually deal with them directly, but instead use the APT repositories
[01:06] <frank23> xfce which dcc client are you talking about?
[01:06] <xfce> valknut
[01:06] <mikebot> xfce: where?
[01:07] <LjL> amyn: Ubuntu's APT repositories contain about 17000 packages which you can install with a single command
[01:07] <steve_b> LjL, frank23, thanks. I just need some reassurance that it is would be low risk since certain other distros would not cope with a major upgrade this way ;)
[01:07] <bimberi> ubotu tell Daramarak about wifi
[01:07] <xfce> http://dcgui.berlios.de/
[01:07] <LjL> !tell steve_b about breezy
[01:07] <LjL> steve_b: that could give you an idea about how involved an upgrade could be
[01:07] <mez> !ops
[01:07] <ubotu> Help! lilo, fabbione, lamont, Keybuk, jdub, mdz, Amaranth, tritium, ajmitch, crimsun, ogra, CarlK, Seveas, Burgundavia, apokryphos, thoreauputic, nalioth, Madpilot or ompaul
[01:07] <Seveas> mez?
[01:08] <LjL> mez: don't do that
[01:08] <mez> Seveas - can you update the topic to make it say that dapper is BROKEN at the mo
[01:08] <mez> severly
[01:08] <frank23> mikebot: valknut is available, but from what I remember dc++ was much more easier to use
[01:08] <LjL> mez: dapper is *supposed* to be broken :)
[01:08] <Seveas> mez, hmm, I just dist-upgraded - what broke?
[01:08] <aboapri> I was just thinking that now I have linux on both of my computers....
[01:08] <svfusion> sup
[01:08] <mikebot> oh, wel,l dc++ is working now
[01:08] <mez> Seveas: anything not KDE
[01:08] <manthar> re
[01:08] <delmar> LjL, ok im back. hey i just checked out the drive specs on the website here at http://www.seagate.com/support/disc/specs/sata/st3120026as.html, and it says sustained transfer rate up to 58MB/sec, and it was doing buffered disk reads at 54.25MB/sec... so that was more or less right? also.. UDMA modes supported are up to UDMA6.. which im sure is ATA133 ...
[01:08] <fruitbag> Hello?
[01:09] <mez> including gdm
[01:09] <fruitbag> Are we awake here?
[01:09] <svfusion> Does Cedega run as good as windows?
[01:09] <xfce> frank23 im just saying that it worked well for me
[01:09] <fruitbag> Please say yes.
[01:09] <mez> they're all secfaulting
[01:09] <Seveas> mez, and yet my machine (gnome) works...
[01:09] <nalioth> mez: why not a PM to one of us next time?
[01:09] <delmar> LjL, both the IDE 250gig and the SATA 120gig have 8mb buffer on them.
[01:09] <fruitbag> How would I go about creating a swap partition?
[01:09] <fruitbag> ...of 500 MB./
[01:09] <aboapri> but I have an old p100 in my closet that still has windows installed.
[01:09] <svfusion> Partiton Magic
[01:09] <frank23> xfce: ok
[01:09] <delmar> LjL, still beats me why the IDE disk is faster than the SATA though
[01:09] <LjL> delmar: well then your drive is clearly doing according to specs (54 vs 58 isn't really something you should care about)
[01:09] <aboapri> should I dig it out and install linux on it?    :))
[01:09] <fruitbag> sv: no, for installing unbuntu
[01:09] <svfusion> or use the build in partiton editor in the installer
[01:09] <fruitbag> From the steup.
[01:09] <fruitbag> Setup
[01:09] <fruitbag> I don't know what I should do.
[01:09] <frank23> svfusion: cedega runs some windows games well but oviously not all.
[01:10] <steve_b> LjL, thanks
[01:10] <LjL> delmar: well count that hdparm is not a terribly good benchmark. different runs could give you different results
[01:10] <fruitbag> Hello?
[01:10] <delmar> LjL, no im not to concerned.. but that IO_support   =  0 (default 16-bit) deal.. is a bit of a concern
[01:10] <wrod> hey fruitbag
[01:10] <fruitbag> Can someone here clear lmy confusion here ?
[01:10] <svfusion> all I did was make a 10 GB partition with partition magic, then the installer did the swap and all that automaticly
[01:10] <fruitbag> Or lead me to an appropriate document.
[01:10] <aboapri> so what is broken about dapper?    I just installed flight 4 yesterday.
[01:10] <Daramarak> msg ubotu Could you help me with my WiFi card?
[01:10] <aboapri> I am using it at the moment.
[01:10] <xfce> fruibag whats up?
[01:10] <fruitbag> sv: so the swap was done automatically?
[01:10] <LjL> delmar: my gut feeling is that you shouldn't be concerned about that
[01:10] <svfusion> yeah
[01:10] <bimberi> aboapri: flight4 is ok, but don't update for the moment
[01:11] <LjL> delmar: it's not an IDE drive, so i think hdparm doesn't really know how to deal with it too well
[01:11] <delmar> LjL, yeah im lookin stuff up right now so ill see
[01:11] <frank23> Daramarak: you can't talk to ubotu ;)  he's a bot
[01:11] <aboapri> I installed like 200 updates yesterday.
[01:11] <bimberi> yay doko! :)
[01:11] <delmar> LjL, yeah im wondering if there is something in "software" that is reporting that incorrectly.
[01:11] <fruitbag> I have a guide here, and after a step where it explains setting the partition (10 GB), it then says 'Create a swap partition of around 500 MB'.
[01:11] <aboapri> now it says there are 46 more, should I not install those?
[01:11] <Daramarak> I might as well try :)
[01:11] <fruitbag> What shall I do?
[01:11] <xfce> seveas thats hilarious : doko broke dapper....
[01:11] <svfusion> Fruit
[01:11] <bimberi> aboapri: no - see /topic
[01:11] <fruitbag> sv: yes sir.
[01:12] <aboapri> '/topic
[01:12] <LjL> dopo broke dakker
[01:12] <wizzomafizzo> Hmmm, do releases come out at the start of the month? Or somewhere in the middle of it?
[01:12] <svfusion> tell the installer to use that partiton (the 10GB one) then it will do the rest, I promise
[01:12] <fruitbag> Ok.
[01:12] <fruitbag> heh
[01:12] <_rich> using kubuntu breezy. i see that i am using udev and /dev is mounted with ramfs. why ramfs and not tmpfs like other distros using udev?
[01:12] <mikebot> ugh, it's not even opening anymore
[01:12] <svfusion> if not, PM me on the forums
[01:12] <fruitbag> sv: I can't afford to fuck anything up.
[01:12] <svfusion> same here
[01:12] <delmar> LjL, ah here we go. libata is hardcoded to use 16bit PIO data transfers. so i was right.
[01:12] <fruitbag> I hope you're not fooling around here...
[01:12] <aboapri> has anyone tried Vault energy drink?
[01:12] <erg0t_> hi every1 :)
[01:13] <fruitbag> ;s
[01:13] <cew> I can't believe how easy it is to install Ubuntu
[01:13] <aboapri> price chopper has them on sale for 50 cents each.
[01:13] <aboapri> I just bought 50.
[01:13] <erg0t_> cew: believe it
[01:13] <PuMpErNiCkLe> lol aboapri
[01:13] <aboapri> Ubuntu ROCKS!   \m/
[01:13] <mikebot> it's open 4 times in my system monitor, but sleeping
[01:13] <nickrud> wizzomafizzo: sometime during the month, dapper is the 20th of april
[01:13] <erg0t_> aboapri, yes it does
[01:13] <wizzomafizzo> nickrud: Thanks.
[01:13] <erg0t_> running breezy here :D
[01:13] <svfusion> fruitbag check your OM
[01:13] <svfusion> PM
[01:13] <LjL> delmar: still if you get 54 megs out of theorically 58, i think it's not really using 16 bit mode...
[01:14] <mikebot> brb
[01:14] <aboapri> I have one computer with breezy, and one with dapper.
[01:14] <delmar> LjL, I might have to runs some tests on other SATA drives I have here and see how fast they run.  So these two drives are the same in terms of ATA mode, 8mb buffer... the only diff is that the 120gig is a seagate.. the 250ide (faster drive) is a Hitachi.
[01:14] <aboapri> My older (600mhz 160mb ram) has breezy.
[01:14] <wizzomafizzo> Also, if this isn't any sort of production server (I have no worry of it breaking) is dapper stable enough to use presently?
[01:14] <fruitbag> sv: are you there man?
[01:14] <aboapri> I was thinking of trying ubuntulite for it, anyone given that a whirl?
[01:14] <cew> I always get stuck trying to config wireless or video or sound with other Linux distros but Ubuntu installed easier than windoze
[01:14] <svfusion> yeah
[01:14] <chuckyp> aboapri, what are you trying to do?
[01:14] <svfusion> Fruit I have a PM for you
[01:14] <delmar> LjL, no it cant be... if its getting max transfer rate... BUT.... EXTERNAL TRANSFER RATE (Mbytes/sec) ______up to 150... so im not sure what thats referring to....
[01:15] <fruitbag> Is the setting of the filesystem for the 10GB partition automatic, or will I require setting it manually?
[01:15] <kaare> test
[01:15] <aboapri> just thought it would be best to have the trimmest available distro for the old one, for it to run best.
[01:15] <delmar> LjL, so libata might be a little cpu hog :P
[01:15] <chuckyp> aboapri, try debian
[01:15] <LjL> delmar: hm i think it means it can do up to 58 megs as a matter or physics, but thanks to the internal buffer, it can output up to 150 megs to the controller
[01:15] <svfusion> Fruitbag, Don't use the installer to make partitons
[01:16] <delmar> LjL, that would be my guess also.
[01:16] <LjL> delmar: i dunno really, i did a quick search for "ubuntu sata" and stuff like that some minutes ago, but didn't find too many relevant things
[01:16] <Belea_> hi there, how can i fix my screen to be in the middle of my LCD ?
[01:16] <delmar> LjL, me either.
[01:16] <svfusion> make your 1 10GB partition using something else, then in the installer select the blank partiton then it will make swap and everything
[01:16] <aboapri> yeah, I like ubuntu's super-easyness, has no one tried ubuntulite?    or does it suck?
[01:16] <riddlebox> what do I need installed to play mp3's?
[01:17] <fruitbag> sv: the 10 GB partition is free.
[01:17] <IdleOne> !mp3
[01:17] <PuMpErNiCkLe> !restricted
[01:17] <chuckyp> aboapri, ubuntu is based off of debian
[01:17] <ubotu> from memory, mp3 is a non-free format. To enable mp3 capability, read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[01:17] <ubotu> restricted is, like, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats  Most of the formats listed here can be replaced by !FreeFormats
[01:17] <PuMpErNiCkLe> IdleOne FTW
[01:17] <IdleOne> ftw?
[01:17] <PuMpErNiCkLe> for the win
[01:17] <IdleOne> oh hehe ()
[01:17] <PuMpErNiCkLe> o_O
[01:17] <aboapri> Yes, I know, Ubuntu seemed a lot easier to install than Debian though.
[01:17] <PuMpErNiCkLe> you beat me to the ubotu command :o
[01:18] <IdleOne> PuMpErNiCkLe:  in my day ftw meant something else
[01:18] <fruitbag> sv: are you there sir?
[01:18] <demonstar> hey i jsut updated ubuntu and I believe including the kernel, do I have to reboot or anything?
[01:18] <kaizoku> is it possible to log into gnome with root in ubuntu?
[01:18] <fruitbag> Shall I just go for the installation without touching anything else then?
[01:18] <mez> demonstar: if you're in dapper - wait a while
[01:18] <PuMpErNiCkLe> IdleOne: k - that's what I've seen it used for, though
[01:18] <frank23> demonstar: you have to reboot to use the new kernel.
[01:18] <sdfzx> im back
[01:18] <fruitbag> Or will I require making some adjustments beforehand?
[01:18] <demonstar> fruitbag, thanks
[01:18] <sdfzx> hehe i wasnt able to resize my disk
[01:18] <bit_seqz> demonstar, if you changed your kernel, yes, id didnt pop up a message saying reboot required?
[01:18] <Belea_> i can convert NTFS to something that ubunt cand write on them ? without lose my data ?
[01:18] <svfusion> Fruit yeah
[01:19] <sdfzx> the swap is locked
[01:19] <demonstar> hope it doesn't decided to be retarted and die like suse does sometimes
[01:19] <svfusion> if you already have 1 10GB partition
[01:19] <fruitbag> K
[01:19] <fruitbag> Thanks
[01:19] <svfusion> np
[01:19] <chuckyp> Belea_, you can try converting to fat32
[01:19] <fruitbag> Another thing -- what about my wireless card?
[01:19] <svfusion> use ndis wrapper
[01:19] <svfusion> look on the forums for that
[01:19] <Belea_> chuckyp,  can u give me a tool ?
[01:19] <fruitbag> I have no problems with Ehternet, but will my wireless function?
[01:19] <svfusion> very easy to do
[01:19] <frank23> Belea_: I don't think so. you would have to backup your data somewhere before converting to another filesystem
[01:19] <fruitbag> I'll get teh Ethernet running for now.
[01:19] <demonstar> fruitbag, it might not
[01:20] <chuckyp> Belea_, just google for windows xp converting fat32 or something
[01:20] <svfusion> yes, just make sure you have your windows drivers do you can use ndis wrappers
[01:20] <aboapri> so what is the deal with shared folders in ubuntu?
[01:20] <Belea_> i dont use win anymore
[01:20] <demonstar> fruitbag, I had trouble with wireless, I ust bought another ethernet cable
[01:20] <fruitbag> demon: the chipset of my wireless PCMCIA is recognised as 'Texas Instruments'.
[01:20] <Belea_> just ext3 and ntfs :(
[01:20] <erg0t_> "Belea_ i dont use win anymore" lol cool
[01:20] <Belea_> :)
[01:20] <chuckyp> Belea_, I though you just said you wanted to convert your windows partition to something ubuntu could write?
[01:20] <Belea_> yes
[01:20] <shenki> n
[01:20] <shenki> n
[01:20] <shenki> n
[01:20] <Belea_> by using ubuntu
[01:20] <shenki> no
[01:20] <shenki> no
[01:20] <Belea_> not win
[01:20] <aboapri> I found this thing about changing the password on the forum, but it always logs into the home directory, seems to ignore which directories I told it to share.
[01:20] <erg0t_> me too
[01:21] <fruitbag> Heh -- I guess I just have to sitck with Ethernet for the moment.
[01:21] <demonstar> fruitbag, I have no idea, I'm that good
[01:21] <chuckyp> Belea_, I don't know about that but you need to convert ntfs to fat32.
[01:21] <erg0t_> im configuring my system , installing all i need to work
[01:21] <chuckyp> Belea_, and I would do it through windows so it doens't freak out.
[01:21] <fruitbag> Heh -- I'm logging off now.
[01:21] <fruitbag> Good day
[01:21] <erg0t_> so i will only boot to windows when i want to play some game or stuff like that
[01:21] <erg0t_> :D
[01:21] <Belea_> i see
[01:21] <svfusion> bye
[01:21] <sdfzx> how can i run firestarter?
[01:21] <svfusion> good luck!
[01:21] <Belea_> and about my second pb..  i have a LCD with no bottons only the power one
[01:21] <Belea_> and the screen its not in the middle
[01:21] <chuckyp> erg0t_, play your games in linux with wine
[01:21] <Belea_> :)
[01:21] <newubuntuman> hey, what the crap do i do with a deb package that tells me it can't install because i'm missing the dependency?
[01:22] <Belea_> what can i do to adjunst the screen ?
[01:22] <aboapri> I just play my games on ps2.
[01:22] <LjL> newubuntuman: install the dependency ;)
[01:22] <xfce> sdfzx gksudo firestarter?
[01:22] <newubuntuman> dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of ltmodem-2.6.8-2-386:
[01:22] <Bubben> how do I update the kernel in ubuntu?
[01:22] <newubuntuman>  ltmodem-2.6.8-2-386 depends on kernel-image-2.6.8-2-386; however:
[01:22] <newubuntuman>   Package kernel-image-2.6.8-2-386 is not installed.
[01:22] <IdleOne> newubuntuman:  what .deb?
[01:22] <frank23> newubuntuman: you donwloaded a deb manually?
[01:22] <newubuntuman> yes sirs
[01:22] <chuckyp> Belea_, if it doesn't have buttons you can try adjusting it in linux.  Do you have an nvidia card?
[01:22] <LjL> newubuntuman: don't install that thing
[01:22] <newubuntuman> i tried apt-get but it didn't see "ltmodem"
[01:22] <Belea_> yes MX200
[01:22] <LjL> newubuntuman: you don't even *have* that version of linux, assuming you're using breezy
[01:23] <newubuntuman> you are correct LjL, what do i need to do?
[01:23] <chuckyp> Belea_, search for overscan its an option you can put in xorg.conf to adjust how much over or under the display is on the monitor.
[01:23] <newubuntuman> i've never used anything other than fedora
[01:23] <svfusion> I have to go
[01:23] <svfusion> bye.
[01:23] <demonstar> newubuntuman install from source...
[01:23] <amyn> whats the tracert cmd in ubuntu
[01:23] <LjL> newubuntuman: "apt-cache search ltmodem" does show a few packages -- none of which is called "ltmodem" (they're actually the inux-restricted-modules packages), but i somehow suspect they contain that module
[01:23] <wastrel> traceroute
[01:23] <Belea_> thx chuckyp
[01:23] <chuckyp> Belea_, np
[01:23] <amyn> not working
[01:24] <newubuntuman> should i not have updated my packages?
[01:24] <chuckyp> amyn, prehaps its not installed.
[01:24] <sdfzx> yes xfce
[01:24] <wastrel> amyn:  it's in /usr/sbin/  - may not be on your path
[01:24] <LjL> newubuntuman: what do you mean by updated?
[01:24] <amyn> ok
[01:24] <wastrel> amyn:  or may not be installed yeah.
[01:24] <newubuntuman> you said about my version of linux, should i not have upgraded the kernel?
[01:24] <chuckyp> newubuntuman, if you are attempting to search for a package apt-cache search <name>
[01:24] <amyn> not even in there
[01:24] <amyn> well how do i install it?
[01:25] <LjL> newubuntuman: you're fine with the latest kernel. type "uname -r", if it's 2.6.12-10 then it's the current kernel for breezy
[01:25] <IdleOne> newubuntuman:  do sudo apt-get install upgrade
[01:25] <chuckyp> IdleOne, would it be sudo apt-get upgrade
[01:25] <IdleOne> newubuntuman:  or sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[01:26] <IdleOne> chuckyp:  yeah without the install :/
[01:26] <erg0t_> LjL, typed that
[01:26] <newubuntuman> correct LjL, i did earlier IdleOne, ubuntu didn't detect my modem though
[01:26] <erg0t_> got this
[01:26] <chuckyp> amyn, what are you trying to install?
[01:26] <erg0t_> colea@ubuntu:~$ uname -r
[01:26] <erg0t_> 2.6.12-10-386
[01:26] <erg0t_> colea@ubuntu:~$
[01:26] <newubuntuman> this is going to be for my grandfather who literally uses the computer to porn surf only... thought linux might be the answer to the daily norton inspired computer crash
[01:26] <LjL> newubuntuman: does "apt-cache search ltmodem" show anything at all for you?
[01:26] <h3ax> what is it the TextBased IRC client is called
[01:26] <duck> irssi
[01:26] <duck> or ircII
[01:26] <sdfzx> how can i install firestarter?
[01:26] <newubuntuman> yes, but i'm not sure i understand what i see LjL
[01:26] <h3ax> k thx
[01:26] <duck> np
[01:27] <LjL> newubuntuman: you should see some linux-restricted-modules packages. is that what you see?
[01:27] <newubuntuman> yes LjL
[01:27] <sdfzx> aw its already installed
[01:27] <LjL> newubuntuman: then install the one that best fits your processor. but i suspect it's already installed -- and if it is, it will already contain ltmodem
[01:27] <xfce> sdfzx: err sudo apt-get install firestarter
[01:28] <xfce> there might be a .deb on their site
[01:28] <afonit> does anyone know of an app or script that will rename the contents of a folder sequentially?
[01:28] <LjL> newubuntuman: in other words -- if it's installed, then i don't quite know why ltmodem isn't working (never used it), but i can assure you that it will be installed
[01:28] <newubuntuman> how can i know if it's already installed? i tried to --list dpkg but didn't see ltmodem in there
[01:28] <demonstar> sudeo apt-get kubuntu will install kde correct?
[01:28] <demonstar> sudo
[01:29] <IdleOne> sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[01:29] <LjL> newubuntuman: "dpkg -l | grep restricted"
[01:29] <newubuntuman> hmm, maybe it is working, i just don't know how to use it, from what i understand it should be a /dev/*LT* (something with lt in it)
[01:29] <Henry_Bean> hi, how to make avaible other terminals using ctrl+alt+F[1..5] ?
[01:29] <sdfzx> (firestarter:8749): Gdk-WARNING **: locale not supported by Xlib
[01:29] <sdfzx>  << i get this when i run firestarter
[01:29] <navarone> sdfzx, if you are looking to run firestarter it should be in Applications menu somewhere...i think in System Tools or you can press alt+f2 and type firestarter to run
[01:29] <chuckyp> demonstar, as will sudo apt-get install kde
[01:29] <sdfzx> i cant find firestarter in menu
[01:29] <sdfzx> so i run it in /etc
[01:29] <xfce> sdfzx where did you install firestarter from?
[01:29] <newubuntuman> a whole bunch of stuff came up on that LjL
[01:29] <chuckyp> Henry_Bean, make sure you are booting in multi user init.  like init 3 or init 5
[01:30] <sdfzx> from the package?
[01:30] <newubuntuman> apt-cache search ltmodem
[01:30] <sdfzx> im sorry im new in ubuntu
[01:30] <duck> is there a way to move the processes in gnomes 'start bar'
[01:30] <duck> ?
[01:30] <LjL> newubuntuman: you only care about "linux-restricted-modules-2.6.12-10-XXXX"
[01:30] <xfce> on the site or apt-get is what I meant
[01:30] <newubuntuman> all right, it is there LJL
[01:30] <sdfzx> sudo apt-get install firestarter << this what i did
[01:30] <chuckyp> duck, move them to where?  Just move them around?  I believe you can just do that with the mouse
[01:30] <xfce> ok
[01:30] <erg0t_> question... can i install another DE like xfce for example, and switch it over?
[01:30] <Henry_Bean> chuckyp: thnx, how to check that?
[01:31] <newubuntuman> cool, so it's installed, i just don't know how to access it
[01:31] <erg0t_> like instead of using gnome... use xfce... without reinstalling the whole thing
[01:31] <LjL> newubuntuman: me neither. tried "sudo modprobe ltmodem"?
[01:31] <xfce> now hit alt and f2
[01:31] <chuckyp> Henry_Bean, hold ctrl+alt and hit f1, f2 etc... it isn't working for you?
[01:31] <duck> I supposed the mouse would do it, but it doesn't somehow
[01:31] <h3ax> mm a good IRc client worth trying out besides Irssi and Xchat ?
[01:31] <duck> bitchx
[01:31] <demonstar> whats the command to edit the xconfig, someone said it ealier
[01:31] <xfce> and type gksudo firestarter
[01:31] <duck> mirc on wine :)
[01:31] <newubuntuman> yes, it didn't see it LjL
[01:31] <zF> How can I figure out the directory containing linux kernel source code?
[01:31] <LjL> newubuntuman: nevermind, that's not the correct name of the module
[01:31] <sdfzx> wait
[01:31] <chuckyp> demonstar, nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[01:32] <Henry_Bean> chuckyp: nop
[01:32] <h3ax> i dont have Ubuntu so i can run windows emulations......
[01:32] <demonstar> chuckyp, no the one thats like dpkg-reconfigure
[01:32] <Henry_Bean> i have id:2:initdefault:
[01:32] <Henry_Bean> should i put it at 3?
[01:32] <chuckyp> demonstar, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[01:32] <IdleOne> erg0t_:  in terminal do sudo apt-get install xfce4 ( if thats what you want ) then log out at log in screen click session and choose xfce
[01:32] <newubuntuman> all right, is there a command line modem query program i can use?
[01:33] <chuckyp> Henry_Bean, yeah init 3
[01:33] <zF> How can I figure out the directory containing linux kernel source code?
[01:33] <Henry_Bean> thanx
[01:33] <chuckyp> Henry_Bean, will allow you multiple users I don't know why you are running in level 2
[01:33] <demonstar> thanks
[01:33] <LjL> newubuntuman: bah, "dpkg -L linux-restricted-modules-2.6.12-10-XXXX" will list you the contents of the package, but the funny thing is that i don't see anything resembling ltmodem there
[01:33] <zF> It should be around usr/src, right?
[01:33] <sdfzx> xfce: it works now thanks
[01:33] <rupan3> zF: /src
[01:33] <Sean> If nobody is too busy, could someone help out a Linux/Ubuntu newb?
[01:33] <Henry_Bean> chuckyp: me neither... i should be the default at dapper
[01:33] <demonstar> now I need my moniter documentation...
[01:33] <chuckyp> Henry_Bean, edit grub to reflect the appropriate runlevel.
[01:33] <Henry_Bean> oh, ok
[01:33] <rupan3> it is /src isn't it?
[01:33] <IdleOne> Sean:  ask away
[01:33] <zF> rupan3, it's not usr/src/linux?
[01:33] <chuckyp> Henry_Bean, if you want it in init 3 at restart.
[01:33] <duck>  <h3ax>i dont have Ubuntu so i can run windows emulations...... << the irssi bitches will burn me now, but there's no propper irc client for linux
[01:34] <mojota> does anyone know a guide step by step on setting up proftpd config for a certain user to only be able to access the directory i set the user path to so the user can upload / download / delete?
[01:34] <rupan3> the linux part is a symbolic link
[01:34] <chuckyp> duck, whats wrong with xchat?
[01:34] <rupan3> there's a few great howtos on the wiki
[01:34] <newubuntuman> hmm, how did you know that it was in that module?
[01:34] <duck> I don't like xchat
[01:34] <rupan3> zf: search for "kernel" on wiki.ubuntu.com
[01:34] <duck> can't put my finger on it
[01:34] <sdfzx> what is the difference between ipv6tunnel and ppp?
[01:34] <chuckyp> mojota, there are tons of them on the net search for proftpd howto.
[01:34] <demonstar> chuckyp, can I do that with x open?
[01:34] <rupan3> duck: irssi is where it's at
[01:34] <Henry_Bean> what i have to change in grub config to init at level 3?
[01:35] <duck> I just want a mirc clone... but there is none
[01:35] <Mastastealth> heys guys, when i shutdown or when i do an ctrl-alt-f1 i cant see the console...wuts up? i read sumthin about a vga=## type deal in grub but...?
[01:35] <sdfzx> aw now it runs
[01:35] <sdfzx> hehe
[01:35] <sdfzx> thanks xfce
[01:35] <xfce> sdfzx: glad to see that it works
[01:35] <chuckyp> demonstar, do what with x open?
[01:35] <sdfzx> :)
[01:35] <sdfzx> thanks again
[01:35] <demonstar> chuckyp, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[01:35] <xfce> no problem
[01:36] <chuckyp> Mastastealth, vga=normal ??
[01:36] <Sean> IdleOne: I just tried installing Ubuntu tonight, and everything went fine, until I got to copying the remaining packages besides the base system to the HD. It gave me some kind of error, saying there might not be enough space, or the CD is dirty. I went ahead and tried to fisish setup, and rebooted, but I have no graphic interface, so I'm in trouble.
[01:36] <IdleOne> duck:  why dont you port mirc?
[01:36] <Sean> How do I get the remaining packages off of the CD?
[01:36] <duck> if mirc was open I would
[01:36] <duck> too bad
[01:36] <mojota> chuckyp most show a guide just for anonymous ftp and i don't want that kind of setup
[01:36] <chuckyp> demonstar, I thought ubuntu was runnning xorg if you are running xfree or something else I don't know.
[01:36] <frank23> Sean: try  sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[01:36] <fauto> hola a todos
[01:36] <chuckyp> mojota, just start the damaen and configure proftpd.  The config file has directions in it.
[01:37] <newubuntuman> hola fauto
[01:37] <rupan3> Sean: did you take the CD out before you rebooted? :p
[01:37] <demonstar> chuckyp, yeah but can I do it in Gnome
[01:37] <bimberi> Sean: ... after cleaning the CD :)
[01:37] <IdleOne> Sean:  the cd may have been dirty but I doubt it...how many gigs is the hd?
[01:37] <fauto> de venezuela viva linux
[01:37] <chuckyp> demonstar, ctrl+alt+f2 and log in and do it from there.
[01:37] <Sean> Yes I took the Cd out, and the partition I made is 21 Gigs.
[01:37] <chuckyp> demonstar, ctrl+alt+f7 to get back to gnome
[01:37] <demonstar> chuckyp, k, after kde gets installed
[01:38] <newubuntuman> de los estados unidos <-- is that how you say that?
[01:38] <IdleOne> Sean:  reinstall it should work fine and make sure the cd is clean :P hehe
[01:38] <Mastastealth> newubuntuman: yup ;)
[01:38] <newubuntuman> heh, all those repressed high school memories surfacing
[01:38] <Mastastealth> perhaps Sean should do an apt-get check?
[01:39] <IdleOne> Mastastealth:  yeah he should :/
[01:39] <Sean> Mastastealth: What exactly is that, and how would I go about doing that?
[01:39] <suryam> newubuntuman: que quieres hablar?
[01:39] <fauto> como puedo ver tele
[01:39] <Mastastealth> Sean: it checks the statuses of the installed packages
[01:40] <tamzarian> someone wanna help a n00b with kubuntu
[01:40] <tamzarian> I know this isn't the kubuntu IRC...
[01:40] <tamzarian>  I can't get anything I plug in to work
 it seems that only things from a CD will work
 let me look at the error really quick
 it says
 An error occured while loading media:/sde1
 could not find folder
 or something similar to that at least
 so I cant use my USB devices (like my iPod shuffle and my internet thing)
 :(
[01:40] <Mastastealth> tamzarian: wuts up? ^_^
[01:41] <newubuntuman> suryam, ingles por favor, no hablo espanol :)
[01:41] <tamzarian> I just pasted my question from the kubuntu irc
[01:41] <rupan3> tamzarian: i had the same problem with kubuntu
[01:41] <tamzarian> I cant get any USB devices to work
[01:41] <tamzarian> really?
[01:41] <Sean> Masta: Ok. I assume this is eventually going to lead me having GNOME, instead of command line type stuff?
[01:41] <rupan3> yeah
[01:41] <newubuntuman> how do you even type the squiggly n in linux?
[01:41] <tamzarian> how did you fix it?
[01:41] <vandal> lol
[01:41] <Mastastealth> Sean: yea Sean
[01:41] <LjL> newubuntuman: depends on your keyboard layout. 
[01:41] <fauto> i sorry spanish for wold
[01:41] <vandal> it's a button on your keyboard
[01:41] <rupan3> in the address bar, try typing /media/sde1 over media:/sde1/
[01:41] <tamzarian> k
[01:41] <suryam> newubuntuman: oook. i thought u were asking how to say something in spanish :-/
[01:41] <tamzarian> let me try that
[01:41] <tamzarian> be right back
[01:41] <rupan3> ok
[01:42] <Mastastealth> Sean: depending on wut happens, it might finish installing things for u, if not do a "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop"
[01:42] <LjL> newubuntuman: i type it using altgr + the higher key left of Enter, followed by N. but that's because i have a swedish keyboard layout
[01:42] <funkyHat> !quicktime
[01:42] <ubotu> quicktime is, like, totally, read http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats for information on quicktime support or just install the "libquicktime1" package.
[01:42] <kejup> Hi everyone
[01:42] <Mastastealth> for a  on an english keyboard, hold ctrl-shift, then type f and 1
[01:42] <fauto> see you later
[01:43] <kejup> does anyone know how to use the linux program "elza"?
[01:43] <Sean> Masta: Ok, thanks. I just assume I type what you have in quotes in after I log in to my account and get the console up?
[01:43] <Mastastealth> Sean: yup
[01:43] <IdleOne> 
[01:43] <IdleOne> haha well look at that
[01:43] <wastrel> how do i get that character to show properly in xchat
[01:43] <newubuntuman> hmm, that's so intuitive
[01:43] <newubuntuman> i guess i don't have an english keyboard, but why f and l?
[01:43] <Mastastealth> mm...im using xchat, isee it fine
[01:43] <Mastastealth> f and the number 1
[01:44] <funkyHat> 
[01:44] <newubuntuman>  awesome
[01:44] <funkyHat> ^_-
[01:44] <Sean> Masta: thanks for the help. I'll be back after I go try it. (Curse me not having my own computer just for Linux)
[01:44] <tamzarian> yay!
[01:44] <tamzarian> it worked
[01:44] <kejup> Elza is an automated web client that interprets scripts. However, the documentation doesn't give any indication as to the syntax of the scripts you're supposed to write. I tried googling to no avail.
[01:44] <rupan3> :)
[01:44] <tamzarian> but I had to browse to /media/
[01:44] <rupan3> glad to hear it, tamzarian
[01:44] <tamzarian> then click it
[01:44] <Mastastealth> Sean: np, cya
[01:44] <tamzarian> thanks alot
[01:44] <rupan3> yeah
[01:44] <tamzarian> :)
[01:44] <shenki00> hi all. does anyone here familiar with using /quit
[01:44] <shenki00> q
[01:44] <tamzarian> now to my next problem...
[01:44] <rupan3> eventually it started working for me
[01:45] <Mastastealth> if u open character map and check certain letters (more recognizable ones under Latin)...
[01:45] <rupan3> i don't know what i did to fux it
[01:45] <tamzarian> I have a USB internet connector thing, and I found some drivers I need to install for it. I downloaded the drivers, how do I install them (thy are tar.gz)
[01:45] <rupan3> fix*
[01:45] <Mastastealth> u see it say U+00##
[01:45] <LjL> newubuntuman:       :)
[01:45] <Mastastealth> where ## is a letter and number usually
[01:45] <F1_> how can i access or install packages that i burned on cd in ubuntu bash? anyone?
[01:45] <rupan3> tamzarian: is there an INSTALL file in the package?
[01:45] <newubuntuman> oh yeah LjL? 
[01:45] <Mastastealth> forget the 00, and do a U as Ctrl-Shift
[01:45] <tamzarian> umm
[01:45] <Mastastealth> then type the last 2 symbols
[01:45] <tamzarian> how would I know what that is?
[01:45] <wastrel> how do i get those characters to display properly in xchat?
[01:45] <tamzarian> does it look like a gear?
[01:45] <kejup> tamzarian- use the package manager if you can...it will make your life much easier
[01:45] <rupan3> it'd be called INSTALL hehe
[01:46] <rupan3> do you have a utility to unpack the .tar.gz file?
[01:46] <tamzarian> how do I use the package manager kejup?
[01:46] <chuckyp> newubuntuman, are you using an english keyboard if so how did you do it?
[01:46] <tamzarian> I dont have a clue rupan, sorry :(
[01:46] <kejup> tamzarian- system->administration->synaptic
[01:46] <tamzarian> I can open the file
[01:46] <tamzarian> ok
[01:46] <tamzarian> let me do that
[01:46] <tamzarian> be right back
[01:46] <Mastastealth> chucky: read my last few lines
[01:46] <newubuntuman> master said above, ctrl+shift+f+1
[01:46] <chuckyp> rupan3, tar xvzf <name>.tar.gz
[01:46] <rupan3> not sure, but you can unpack a tarball by typing: tar zxvf <packname>.tar.gz
[01:47] <rupan3> chuckyp: hehe yeah i was just trying to help out tamzarian, not askin :p
[01:47] <Rug> Howdy all
[01:47] <newubuntuman> i like how it's so intuitive, i probably would have figured out by myself masta
[01:47] <kejup> tamzarian- that is the default ubuntu package manager....see if what you need is in the default repositories...if it isn't then try enabling the universe and multiverse repositories
[01:47] <rupan3> that's one of the very few things i DO know :)
[01:47] <Mastastealth> -
[01:47] <F1_> how can i access or install packages that i burned on cd in ubuntu bash? anyone?
[01:47] <kejup> tamazarian- if you still can't find what you need then try some other debian repositories (perhaps some that you found in the ubuntu forums)
[01:47] <nickrud> F1_: you'd use dpkg -i <package> , but be careful: where'd you get the packages?
[01:47] <chuckyp> Mastastealth, I don't get it what are you talking about character map and stuff isn't there a key combination to do it?
[01:47] <tamzarian> I dojnt see a 'synaptic' I am running kubuntu by the way
[01:47] <Rug> Is it possible to create a second swap partition while the OS is running?
[01:47] <Mastastealth> F1- u have debs burned on a cd?
[01:47] <kejup> tamazarian- only try to install a tar file as a last resort
[01:47] <rupan3> ok yeah
[01:47] <rupan3> kubuntu uses adept
[01:48] <chuckyp> tamzarian, apt-get install synaptic
[01:48] <rupan3> open up the adept package manager
[01:48] <Mastastealth> yes chucky, hold ctrl-shift, and then type a letter and a number
[01:48] <LjL> Rug: think so
[01:48] <tamzarian> is that in system admin?
[01:48] <rupan3> but synaptic is better IMO
[01:48] <GeorgeAScott> i just reformatted my second hard drive to ext3 and disks manager shows it as NTFS still... and won't tell me how much space is free or allow me to enable the drive
[01:48] <rupan3> its in utilities or system or something lke that
[01:48] <Mastastealth> u can check applications->accessories->character map to see all the codes
[01:48] <kejup> tamazarian- linux/debian/ubuntu isn't like windows....you generally don't just download files and install them....always use the package manager if you can
[01:48] <chuckyp> tamzarian, if its install you can use synaptic in kubuntu just launch it from a terminal
[01:48] <GeorgeAScott> how do i fix that?
[01:48] <Rug> LjL: I love those resounding words of encouragement.  =)
[01:48] <F1_> nickrud: i downloaded em from the internet because i need em to fix xserver. i have problems with my radeon x600 card. :\
[01:48] <tamzarian> XD im so lost
[01:48] <LjL> Rug: i would reboot though if it were for me
[01:48] <tamzarian> i'll try to follow one thing at a time
[01:49] <Mastastealth> F1: copy em into a folder of urs, and dpkg -i the ones u need
[01:49] <vasser> hello
[01:49] <chuckyp> Mastastealth, well whats the code for the n
[01:49] <kejup> tamzarian- what do you see under system->administration ?
[01:49] <Rug> LjL: I still haven't rebooted yet to "fix" my xorg memory leak.  Too many things running
[01:49] <vasser> i added repositories
[01:49] <nickrud> F1_: ok. If they were nvidia, I'd have an opinion about them, maybe someone who knows ati can vet them
[01:49] <Mastastealth> ctrl-shift-f-1
[01:49] <Mastastealth> the number 1
[01:49] <vasser> but cannot see "server-xgl"
[01:49] <tamzarian> I see
[01:49] <chuckyp> Mastastealth, gotcha thanks
[01:49] <tallmf> alright guys..how do I gain permission to write to an NTFS formatted hard disk?
[01:49] <kejup> tamzarian- regular ubuntu has "synaptic package manager"....I don't know about kubuntu
[01:49] <vasser> is there anything i should do ?
[01:49] <nickrud> !mountwindows
[01:49] <ubotu> Download and run http://www.ubuntulinux.nl/files/diskmounter to make your windows or mac partitions mount automatically.  If you wish to set it up yourself by hand, read: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions
[01:49] <LjL> tallmf: you don't
[01:50] <Mastastealth> kubuntu uses adept now
[01:50] <tamzarian> paths, system file services
[01:50] <Mastastealth> instead of synaptic
[01:50] <andrew_> hey
[01:50] <delmar> anyone here got cedegar running under ubuntu? I'm having no success at all, and the cedega channel is exceedingly useless. dumping windows for ubuntu centers around cedega working... its so frustrating. :(
[01:50] <tamzarian> date and time
[01:50] <LjL> Rug: well i'm not too sure linux will see the newly created partition correctly without a reboot
[01:50] <tamzarian> umm
[01:50] <frank23> tallmf: you cant write to ntfs from linux
[01:50] <tamzarian> let me look again
[01:50] <F1_> Mastastealth, got any advice how to copy em in bash? i need a command and i'm tired of lookin for it right now :\
[01:50] <kbrooks> ljl:
[01:50] <andrew_> Can someone give me help with wireless?
[01:50] <chuckyp> tallmf, yeah linux does not support writing to ntfs very well atleast.  You can however write to fat32 with out issues.
[01:50] <chuckyp> andrew_, what kind of help?
[01:50] <tallmf> so shouldi take all my files off of it and then reformat for FAT?
[01:50] <frank23> delmar: cedega works for me
[01:50] <tamzarian> disk and filesystems
[01:50] <Mastastealth> well, if the cd mounted properly try cding into /media/cdrom
[01:50] <tamzarian> login management
[01:50] <kbrooks> YOU DO NOT NEED TO REBOOT IN LINUX
[01:50] <andrew_> ill give u a link to my post
[01:50] <delmar> frank23, cool.. what games do u run?
[01:50] <AnsiC> hello
[01:50] <chuckyp> tallmf, you should be able to convert from ntfs to fat32
[01:50] <AnsiC> someone use openoffice?
[01:50] <vasser> anyone ?
[01:50] <tallmf> alright
[01:50] <delmar> frank23, what vid card, drivers, kernel etc. ?
[01:50] <tamzarian> thats all the important things I see
[01:50] <kbrooks> ONLY FOR HARDWARE UPGRADES
[01:51] <Mastastealth> then "cp * /home/username" ?
[01:51] <AnsiC> i have installed Theasaurus
[01:51] <frank23> delmar: just world of warcraft
[01:51] <kejup> tamzarian- look through all your menus....you should have synaptic somewhere.....or you can use apt-get from the command line, but synaptic gives you a nice gui
[01:51] <Rug> LjL: yeah I believe it, I am just not wanting to reboot.   My current /swap (1.6Gb) is full so I think that might be part of the problem

[01:51] <LjL> kbrooks: and you do not need to shout in #ubuntu
[01:51] <AnsiC> but in the menu theasaurus is disabled
[01:51] <tamzarian> ok
[01:51] <nickrud> tallmf: if you need to write, maybe you want to look at creating a small fat32 partition to write to, so windows can continue to use ntfs
[01:51] <tamzarian> i'll look for that
[01:51] <delmar> frank23, what kernel, vid driver and card etc?
[01:51] <andrew_> chuckyp, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=138341
[01:51] <delmar> frank23, what version of cedega?
[01:51] <nickrud> kbrooks: frustrated?
[01:51] <GeorgeAScott> tallmf: http://www.linux-ntfs.org/
[01:51] <kbrooks> rug: sure its full.
[01:52] <kejup> tamazarian- if you can't find the menu you could always just run "synaptic" from the command line (as root) and the gui will pop up
[01:52] <frank23> delmar: I have a nvidia card (5900 XT) cedega 5.0   kernel and nvidia drivers from the breezy repos
[01:52] <kbrooks> nickrud, i expect perfect help :P
[01:52] <LjL> kbrooks: just for the heck of it, i just run cfdisk and asked it to re-write my partition table
[01:52] <tallmf> alright
[01:52] <LjL> Wrote partition table, but re-read table failed.  Reboot to update table.
[01:52] <newubuntuman> looks like i made a bad mistake... when itried to install before it kind of partly installed or something, i have a broken package for ltmodem
[01:52] <tallmf> Ill try it thanks people
[01:52] <nickrud> kbrooks: bob2 went away
[01:52] <LjL> kbrooks: so, should i trust you better than cfdisk? ;)
[01:52] <GeorgeAScott> tallmf: you can mount it but writing on it is a different story
[01:52] <newubuntuman> now i get this: E: ltmodem-2.6.8-2-386: subprocess post-removal script returned error exit status 1
[01:52] <kbrooks> nickrud, ?
[01:52] <andrew_> chuckyp, ive follwed it step by step and it still wont find the hardware
[01:52] <vasser> which repository do i need to add in order to install xserver-xgl ?
[01:52] <kejup> Now does anyone know where I can get Elza documentation? Elza is an automated web client that interprets scripts. However, the documentation doesn't give any indication as to the syntax of the scripts you're supposed to write. I tried googling to no avail.
[01:52] <kbrooks> nickrud, what about bob2?
[01:53] <nickrud> kbrooks: only guy I've seen here that actually gave near perfect info about just about everything
[01:53] <delmar> frank23, what version kernel and exactly what version nvidia driver (run nvidia-settings from the prompt and it will tell u the version)... is it like... 1.0-7667?
[01:53] <tamzarian> can I run synaptic or adept from run command in kubuntu?
[01:53] <kbrooks> !find bob2
[01:53] <chuckyp> andrew_, what type of belkin card is it pcmcia?
[01:53] <tamzarian> I dont see it anywhere at all in the menus
[01:53] <kbrooks> !seen bob2
[01:53] <ubotu> kbrooks: i haven't seen 'bob2'
[01:53] <andrew_> no its 54g
[01:53] <delmar> frank23, is there anything in the games launch profile in cedega that I should look out for that might be the cause?
[01:53] <kejup> tamazarian- sure....maybe kubuntu uses a different package manager
[01:53] <tamzarian> yea
[01:53] <kbrooks> ubotu: lies, yes you have!
[01:53] <ubotu> No idea, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, kbrooks
[01:53] <tamzarian> maybe I better go back to the kubuntu irc
[01:53] <dooglus> tamzarian: run a terminal window (Konsole?) and run aptitude in there
[01:54] <chuckyp> andrew_, what part of the walkthrough are you having problems with you copy the inf and ndiswrapper -i then you have to load the ndiswrappe rmodule.
[01:54] <tamzarian> I dont have Konsole
[01:54] <tamzarian> or I cant find it
[01:54] <frank23> delmar: 2.6.12-10-k7  1.0-7667  what game are you trying to run
[01:54] <kejup> dooglus- does kubuntu come with synaptic or just aptitude?
[01:54] <SuseUX> Wow, deskbar rocks
[01:54] <djs_2_6> Hey all.  My page file use is really high right now compared to what it has been.  Any idea how to fix things?  The paging is killing my speed...
[01:54] <tamzarian> I havent looked for aptitude yet
[01:54] <andrew_> chuckyp, ive done all that and ive got the wifi card working on other linux's but this wont pickup the hardware
[01:54] <newubuntuman> how do i get rid of something from the list if it's broken but no files are listed in it?
[01:54] <djs_2_6> Using breezy
[01:54] <kbrooks> kejup, aptitute is a cli frontend
[01:54] <RollyW> <-- new to linux altogether, and looking for a way to play his dvd's
[01:54] <kbrooks> not gui
[01:54] <ubotu> Ubuntu Package/File/Desc Search of 'bob2' returned no results.
[01:54] <dooglus> kejup: I don't know.
[01:54] <newubuntuman> djs_2_6, what is using all your ram?
[01:54] <chuckyp> andrew_, you've had it working with other distro's using ndiswrapper?
[01:55] <andrew_> yes chuckyp
[01:55] <Demigod> to do raid on linux do i have to set the hardware raid o just software raid?
[01:55] <dooglus> kejup: there's #kubuntu for questions like that I guess.
[01:55] <LjL> kbrooks: so, sorry for insisting, but do you *have* a way to explain to me why cfdisk is just asking me to *reboot* after re-writing the partition table? :)
[01:55] <djs_2_6> newubuntuman - My ram usage is equal to or less than my page file right now...
[01:55] <andrew_> its currently working on my gentoo system
[01:55] <djs_2_6> RollyW - !restricted formats
[01:55] <kbrooks> ljl: yes. its logical. :P
[01:55] <kejup> dooglus- I was just trying to help tamzarian. Since I'm using regular ubuntu.
[01:55] <chuckyp> andrew_, Not sure then maybe someone can help you with wrapper problems and ubuntu I don't even use ubuntu so i'm not of much help.  I can tell you it works under debianso I don't see why it wouldn't work in ubuntu.

[01:56] <delmar> frank23, Everquest mainly.. it runs but the graphics are all shitty... and when I check the in game EQ options.. there is NO video card to select.. and all the graphics options are untagged... so i tag them.. restart the game.. same thing.. check options.. all untagged again... also.. BF-vietnam.. ..click single player. instant action, start.. loads next screen for 2 secs (the one that would normally show it loading stuff up) then quits.
[01:56] <tamzarian> ok, im gonna go back to the kubuntu IRC chat

[01:56] <frank23> delmar: check the transgaming forums and the wiki as well.
[01:56] <andrew_> why wont NO1 HELP ME
[01:56] <chuckyp> kbrooks, why don't people just install ubuntu and just install kde?  via apt-get install kde instead of switching distros?
[01:56] <andrew_> ty for trying chuckyp
[01:57] <mjr> chuckyp, kubuntu is not a different distro
[01:57] <djs_2_6> andrew_ - What is wrong?
[01:57] <RollyW> ! restricted formats
[01:57] <ubotu> methinks restricted formats is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats or 'codecs'
[01:57] <kbrooks> chuckyp, shall i reiterate?
[01:57] <kejup> does anyone know where I might be able to find documentation for the linux program "Elza"? It's in the universe.
[01:57] <frank23> delmar: If you get in the game it works. for the problems you have, people may have found solutions
[01:57] <andrew_> wireless card aint getting detected
[01:57] <chuckyp> kejup, man elza
[01:57] <kbrooks> kubuntu is not a *seperate* project from ubuntu.
[01:57] <Mangelo> can i use windows xp default CD burning feature to create bootable CD's of these linux distro's i DL'ed?  and if not whats the easiest (minimally intrusive) program to do it with
[01:57] <djs_2_6> andrew_ - From a clean install, or a hardware upgrade?
[01:57] <Demigod> uhmmmm anyone?
[01:58] <andrew_> clean install
[01:58] <kejup> chuckyp- the man page is terrible, all it says is that elza is an interpreter, but it says nothing about what language it interprets
[01:58] <chuckyp> andrew_, possibly look at what kernel you are running vs. what kernel you had it working on with other distros
[01:58] <_jason> ubotu: tell Mangelo about burniso
[01:58] <Mangelo> thanks
[01:58] <chuckyp> kejup, what about google for elza?
[01:58] <newubuntuman> how do i get rid of a package that won't remove from dpkg?
[01:58] <Demigod> _jason you know about raid?
[01:58] <_jason> Demigod: nope
[01:58] <SeerKan> hi, i have installed debian on my server and i want to know the full command so i can install a program with all depencies (screen for ex) apt-get ...... ? ( sory for asking here but i see i have +b on debian )
[01:58] <delmar> frank23, im getting pretty burned out searching online and coming up with nothing....
[01:58] <_jason> Mangelo: I don't know if the default windows burning thing works, but that links gives you some info that I know works
[01:58] <kejup> chuckyp- yeah I tried....I mostly just found references to my old professor :p
[01:58] <newubuntuman> SeerKan,  apt-get install programname
[01:59] <andrew_> djs_2_6, take a look at this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=138341
[01:59] <LjL> !tell seerkan about shortapt
[01:59] <andrew_> bcmwl5 driver present
[01:59] <frank23> delmar: did you look through the transgaming stuff?
[01:59] <andrew_> it aint saying hardware present
[01:59] <kejup> chuckyp- believe me...I know the typical avenues for finding out how to use a program, but I can't find anything on elza
[01:59] <Celeste> hi
[02:00] <oklinux> can I install e17  in ubuntu ?
[02:00] <Celeste> What do I have to install to enable PHP-Scripts on Apache  1.3   accessing  MySQL ?
[02:00] <Celeste> MySQL runs

[02:00] <chuckyp> oklinux, you can install whatever you want

[02:00] <Celeste> but PHP script cannot access MySQL
[02:00] <andrew_> djs_2_6, how do i find out the chipset?
[02:00] <wa77x> kicked ** half *** lol
[02:00] <chuckyp> Celeste, you ned the php module for mysql
[02:01] <djs_2_6> andrew_ - Find out model first, then google it...
[02:01] <andrew_> F5D7010
[02:01] <Celeste> chuckyp,  do you mean  php4-mysql ?
[02:01] <BlackJudas|TWL> What program do I use to scan ports on a box?  :/  I need to check to see what ports are open on my firewall.
[02:01] <chuckyp> andrew_, I'm sure someone has gotten the card you have working with ubuntu I would just google for the model and ubuntu and see what results you get.  If they used ndiswrapper etc...
[02:02] <LjL> BlackJudas|TWL: try nmap
[02:02] <manthar> hi i have a problem when i tried to install netscape http://pastebin.com/579443
[02:02] <Celeste> chuckyp, I already installed  php4-mysql  and restarted apache then

[02:02] <Celeste> chuckyp, php people normaly send me to the distro I am using
[02:02] <delmar> frank23, EQ is officially supported.
[02:02] <andrew_> nope
[02:02] <andrew_> cant find nefing
[02:03] <newubuntuman> is there a way i can sudo a chain of commands instead of just one at a time
[02:03] <biovore> andrew_: lspci tell you anything?
[02:03] <LjL> BlackJudas|TWL: note that you should *not* use nmap on the *same* machine that you're testing ;-) though i suppose this is obvious
[02:03] <frank23> delmar: I never tried EQ so I don't know
[02:03] <chuckyp> andrew_, what kernel are you running
[02:03] <manthar> who cna help me with netscape

[02:04] <chuckyp> andrew_, well lspci and look through there for your network card that you are trying to get working.
[02:05] <newubuntuman> awesome

[02:05] <Sean__> Anyone that was here when I was having trouble, I'm back.
[02:05] <djs_2_6> andrew_ - You need to find out what revision of that card you have - one is more compatible...
[02:05] <newubuntuman> so what do you do when you can't get rid of a package and you've tried apt-get clean, update and dist-upgrade
[02:05] <LjL> WoC: be sure you've done a "sudo apt-get update" after adding it

[02:06] <kejup> it doesn't have any dependencies

[02:13] <slvmchn> i have LAME installed apparently, how do i add it to "sox"? i can convert from mp3 to ogg, but not from ogg to mp3
[02:13] <KonphuzeD> !dccs
[02:13] <ubotu> KonphuzeD: I give up. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[02:13] <poningru> in a bash script how do you make it run as a superuser?
[02:13] <andrew_> i no it aint chucky lol
[02:13] <LjL> can somebody confirm that "alli" should really be "all" in spanish?
[02:13] <chuckyp> andrew_, like physically not driver wise.  You need to get linux to atleast see your hardware first then worry bout drivers.
[02:13] <sgtbaker> Do you understand the words, that are comin outta my mouth!?
[02:13] <Seveas> poningru, run it via sudo 
[02:13] <Sean__> kejup: I just tried installing Ubuntu tonight, and everything went fine, until I got to copying the remaining packages besides the base system to the HD. It gave me some kind of error, saying there might not be enough space, or the CD is dirty. I went ahead and tried to fisish setup, and rebooted, but I have no graphic interface.
[02:13] <chuckyp> andrew_, I mean physically not seeing the nic.  Like pcmia services aren't loaded.
[02:13] <RememberPOL> thx bimberi
[02:13] <chuckyp> andrew_, what version of ubuntu are you using?
[02:13] <andrew_> hrm
[02:14] <sgtbaker> Sean, have you started xserver ?
[02:14] <fauto> 510
[02:14] <Sean__> kejup: I was here a few minutes and they told me to try sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop, it didn't work.
[02:14] <poningru> Seveas: well yeah but I want to double click on an .sh and have it popup a terminal and get a password from me and...
[02:14] <poningru> nm
[02:14] <andrew_> im running 5.10
[02:14] <KonphuzeD> !DVDDCSS
[02:14] <ubotu> Bugger all, I dunno. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, KonphuzeD
[02:14] <kejup> sean__- well...is the error message true? is your hard drive full or is the cd dirty?
[02:14] <chuckyp> Sean__, what are you trying to do?
[02:14] <fauto> yes
[02:14] <Seveas> poningru, let it use gksudo 
[02:14] <phoenixp3k> One step of the wiki for ATI drivers is not working... some info on that ?
[02:14] <poningru> hmm
[02:14] <sgtbaker> try sudo startx
[02:14] <poningru> true
[02:14] <sgtbaker> just see if its running in the wrong run level
[02:14] <Seveas> sgtbaker, startx shouldn't be run as root...
[02:14] <chuckyp> andrew_, search for you specific laptop on the forums you are having problems with pcmcia once you get those sorted out you will be able to instal your card
[02:14] <Sean__> kejup: Nope. The CD is brand new, and I have a 21 GB partition.
[02:15] <LordKhaine> to get my ati card working in 3d I had to follow a method posted on the forums, the rest wouldn't work
[02:15] <kejup> sean__- did you burn the cd yourself or is it from cannonical?
[02:15] <sgtbaker> but for testing purposes its not going to hurt anything
[02:15] <andrew_> my laptop is fine chuckyp
[02:15] <sgtbaker> i just wouldnt run it under root for ever
[02:15] <Sean__> kejup: Cannonical
[02:15] <F1_> does anyone have the same problem as me? problem with ati radeon x600 graphic card?
[02:15] <chuckyp> andrew_, I understand your laptop is fine but ubuntu is not recognizing your pcmcia
[02:16] <phoenixp3k> I got a Radeon 9550 and can't even install the driver for it :p
[02:16] <chuckyp> andrew_, thats why I would search for your specific laptop on the forums and see if anyone else had problems getting any pcmcia card to work.
[02:16] <chuckyp> andrew_, or search for pcmcia services.
[02:16] <kejup> sean__- usually when cannonical sends me discs they fall out of the cases in the mail and many of them get scratched up
[02:16] <tallmf> Guys-how do I open an RPM file in Ubuntu?
[02:16] <kejup> sean__- do you have only 1 or more than 1?

[02:17] <melaren> Is dapper drake supposed to mount flash drives on the desktop like breezy? I'm just wondering if I'm looking at a bug.
[02:17] <phoenixp3k> tallmf, use alien dpkg -i ***.rmp
[02:17] <LjL> tallmf: first off, you shouldn't do that. rpms aren't guarranteed to work in ubuntu - quite the contrary, they're likely to mess up things on your system
[02:17] <fauto> how can you see tele
[02:17] <LjL> tallmf: that said, you can install "alien" if you really want to use rpms
[02:17] <tallmf> ah
[02:17] <tallmf> well...I want to install a linux versionof winamp
[02:17] <Seveas> tallmf, what are you installing?
[02:17] <tallmf> its an RPM file
[02:17] <Seveas> tallmf, try xmms
[02:17] <KonphuzeD> !libdvdcss2
[02:17] <ubotu> DVD playing is possible in ubuntu. You may need libdvdcss2, which is available via http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages (section extras)
[02:17] <Seveas> or beep-media-player
[02:18] <kejup> sean__- did you try installing with a different one?
[02:18] <Seveas> they booth look very much like winamp (can even use winamp skins)
[02:18] <LjL> tallmf: what's that program called?
[02:18] <Seveas> and are available from Ubuntu
[02:18] <tallmf> I want to view my library thouhg and xmms doesnt give me the option
[02:18] <phoenixp3k> F1_, I've tryed installing the latest drivers from ATI but the instructions on the wiki are not working
[02:18] <tallmf> I want to play files from my hard drive
[02:18] <tallmf> like an entire album
[02:18] <chuckyp> andrew_, that appears to be the exact same problem you have
[02:18] <melaren> Is dapper drake supposed to mount flash drives on the desktop like breezy? I'm just wondering if I'm looking at a bug, because it doesn't mount my flash drives on the desktop.
[02:18] <andrew_> chuckyp, can we talk in PrivMsg the room gets me confused
[02:19] <Sean__> kejup: That brings me to my second question, when I try to install Ubntu again, so I just overwrite the existing partition?
[02:19] <chuckyp> andrew_, yea
[02:19] <LjL> tallmf: what about rythmbox? i'm not a gnome user, but i think it can do that
[02:19] <LjL> tallmf: anyway that's the winamp-like program you're currently trying to install called?
[02:19] <kejup> sean__- well.....were you trying to do a dual-boot or just install ubuntu?
[02:19] <tallmf> rhythm box wont play AAC files
[02:19] <Sean__> kejup: Dual boot.
[02:19] <pbransford> any idea when the maintaner will get off his/her butt and update the nmap package?
[02:20] <pbransford> 4.00 has been out for a while and 4.01 is out now
[02:20] <kejup> sean__- yeah, have it overwrite the existing partition, but make sure you don't overwrite windows :p
[02:20] <tallmf> LjL, its a random program jsut called "winamp for linux"
[02:20] <GeorgeAScott> tallmf: muine is good for playing full albums
[02:20] <tallmf> it'll prolly be unstable though so I wont use it
[02:20] <pbransford> ok, which repo is less unstable: testing, or unstable
[02:20] <LordKhaine> just get xmms, it literally *is* winamp for linux
[02:20] <Sean__> kejup: Yes, indeed. I always make sure I select my second hard drive.
[02:20] <tallmf> what is? georgescott
[02:20] <GeorgeAScott> muine
[02:20] <wastrel> what's AAC?
[02:20] <kejup> sean__- most likely the other disc was just bad so you don't know what files could be corrupted from the original install
[02:20] <LjL> tallmf: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=21577  <-- this is for Breezy, but it does look like it suggests that AAC can be made to work in rythmbox through the "standard" procedure for adding restricted formats
[02:21] <LjL> !tell tallmf about restricted formats
[02:21] <Sean__> kejup: What about GRUB? Will it try to set itself up again, or will it see that it is already on my MBR?
[02:21] <pbransford> wastrel: Advanced Audio Codec / Apple Audio Codec
[02:21] <LordKhaine> it will let let you keep your other OS selected for grub
[02:21] <argy> hi there all
[02:22] <melaren> To anyone...  I'm running Dapper Drake Alpha 4, is Dapper supposed to mount flash drives on the desktop like Breezy?  My drives don't show up on my desktop, just wondering if this is a bug...  I can still access the drives, but it doesn't put them on the desktop.
[02:22] <kejup> seveas- I can't find any documentation on the syntax for the interpreter "elza" that is in the universe. I checked the web and the man page, but there is no information. Do you have any idea where I can get documentation for this program?
[02:22] <wastrel> is there a way to play TV shows downloaded from itunes on linux?
[02:22] <fauto> yes joined ubuntu 5.10
[02:22] <LordKhaine> dual boot is easy to setup, assuming you already have a spare partition aside for linux
[02:22] <kejup> sean__- it will overwrite grub too
[02:22] <pbransford> dapper is what breezy was when hoary was latest, right?
[02:22] <argy> i have a problem with my dvd player
[02:22] <LordKhaine> yes
[02:22] <fauto> see you later
[02:22] <Sean__> kejup: Ok, thanks. I'm off to try this again. Thanks all.
[02:23] <sirK_> argy, sounds crazy
[02:23] <LjL> tallmf: man, if that thing is "winamp for linux alpha 1", that smells terrible
[02:23] <LordKhaine> just don't overwrite your windows partition sean! hehe
[02:23] <pbransford> hello?
[02:23] <argy> why does totem or any other app play with stuttering and jerkynesss
[02:23] <LordKhaine> yes, it's the next version and in beta
[02:23] <h36sa> I wouldn't worry about it to much LordKhaine
[02:23] <pbransford> ok, but it's not as unstable as debian "sid" right?
[02:23] <melaren> Help Please...  I'm running Dapper Drake Alpha 4, is Dapper supposed to mount flash drives on the desktop like Breezy?  My drives don't show up on my desktop, just wondering if this is a bug...  I can still access the drives, but it doesn't put them on the desktop.

[02:24] <andrew_> chuckyp,  Private messages from unregistered users are currently blocked due to spam problems, but you can always message a staffer. Please register! ( http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#privmsg )
[02:24] <andrew_> lol
[02:24] <argy> how do i find that out...i am noob!!
[02:24] <wastrel> !dapper
[02:24] <ubotu> rumour has it, dapper is pre-release name for next edition of Ubuntu, release name 6.04. Due 20th April. It is Development Software - May Break! >/join #ubuntu+1< for IRC Use  http://tinyurl.com/rtgxo for easy updates
[02:24] <chuckyp> andrew_, Well I would just follow what he did to get it working. with the ctl thing.  If not keep searching it seems that anyone with your notebook would have the same problem getting any pcmcia card working.
[02:25] <chuckyp> andrew_, in ubuntu that is.
[02:25] <andrew_> no1 elsde has problems with pcmcia
[02:25] <argy> what pcmcia card you got?
[02:25] <pbransford> what's "breezy-backports"?
[02:26] <chuckyp> andrew_, I'm saying other people with your notebook trying ubuntu will experience the same problems.
[02:26] <argy> im using a notebook
[02:26] <LjL> pbransford: a repository containing versions packages that are in dapper but not in breezy, and that get backported to breezy
[02:26] <fauto> hi, hello
[02:26] <newubuntuman> hey is there a way i can get rid of a link to a broken package so i don't get the whine anymore?  the stuff from the package is all gone, but it thinks it's there but broken
[02:26] <andrew_> he says sudo cardctl insert
[02:26] <andrew_> but insert what
[02:26] <chuckyp> argy, his pcmcia is not functioning properly under ubuntu its not even detecting any cards plugged in that he knows work with other distros etc...
[02:26] <newubuntuman> file tells it that it's installed so i can clean it?
[02:26] <fauto> I am novato
[02:26] <pbransford> LjL, so maybe safer than going to dapper but more is available than in vanilla breezy?
[02:27] <andrew_> chuckyp, join #chuckyp
[02:27] <argy> ok
[02:27] <LjL> pbransford: probably, but don't imagine breezy-backports like something with thousands of packages
[02:27] <LjL> newubuntuman: let me guess, you deleted the files manually? =)
[02:27] <LjL> newubuntuman: try "sudo apt-get --purge remove packagename", or "sudo apt-get --reinstall install packagename" followed by a purge
[02:28] <brianP> is there any way to clear a network interface info from the kernel?  for instance when i'm using my laptop wirelessly and then i suspend it and then take it to school and resume it I can never it get back on the network until i reboot becase it gets stuck with the old info....?
[02:28] <newubuntuman> haha, nope, i had attempted to install the deb package for ltmodem, apparently it installed some part of it before failing on the dependency...
[02:28] <argy> does anyone know how to stop the stutering on dvd playback, i`ve tried the dma=1 thing
[02:28] <newubuntuman> so i'm getting this broken package junk, but it won't remove, i've done a clean, an update and dist-upgrade
[02:28] <brenner> argy: what player?
[02:28] <melaren> Help Please...  I'm running Dapper Drake Alpha 4, is Dapper supposed to mount flash drives on the desktop like Breezy?  My drives don't show up on my desktop, just wondering if this is a bug...  I can still access the drives, but it doesn't put them on the desktop.
[02:28] <wastrel> brianP:  ooo don't reboot for that!   sudo ifdown eth0    sudo ifup eth1
[02:28] <newubuntuman> i tried dpkg -r
[02:29] <newubuntuman> it laughs in my face
[02:29] <LjL> newubuntuman: well you could try installing it with the "--force-depends" option of dpkg, and then remove it
[02:29] <brenner> argy: and what does 'hdparm -d /dev/dvd' say?
[02:29] <argy> totem,ogle, you name it, it stutters
[02:29] <wastrel> brianP:  ifconfig and ifup/down  will let you see which network interface is running and activate and deactivate
[02:29] <brianP> wastrel, ive tried every combination of ifup ifconfig iwconfig....
[02:29] <newubuntuman> would that hurt the module that is installed LjL?
[02:29] <wastrel> brianP:  so what happens?
[02:29] <brianP> it just plain gets stuck
[02:29] <LjL> newubuntuman: don't think so... it should still bail out if it attempts to overwrite something
[02:29] <argy> brenner: i set the dma=1 in the hdparm settings
[02:30] <brianP> i need a way to clear the interface cache from the kernel
[02:30] <brenner> argy: just to confirm, what does the command output?
[02:30] <jannol> does anyone have a fresh build of xcompmgr deb ?
[02:30] <argy> let me see
[02:30] <brianP> wastrel, when i do ifup it says network down
[02:30] <pbransford> OK, switching repos to dapper :D
[02:31] <brianP> ifconfig shows that it still has the old ip
[02:31] <melaren> Help Please...  I'm running Dapper Drake Alpha 4, is Dapper supposed to mount flash drives on the desktop like Breezy?  My drives don't show up on my desktop, just wondering if this is a bug...  I can still access the drives, but it doesn't put them on the desktop.
[02:31] <GeorgeAScott> stop repeeating yourself
[02:31] <LjL> !tell melaren about dapper
[02:31] <ELpH95o> blazemonger
[02:31] <wastrel> brianP:  you're talking about using the same wifi for school and home?  heh sry i wasn't thinking....
[02:31] <brianP> even setting the ip to one that i know is on the same network doesnt help
[02:31] <arp> I keep getting this error from apt...

[02:31] <brianP> wastrel, yeah wifi
[02:32] <kejup> melaren- alpha 4 means it's not supposed to do anything yet
[02:32] <wastrel> brianP: you probably need to call the dhcp server
[02:32] <tallmf> how do I put myself in desktop in CUI?
[02:32] <Seveas> arp, try apt-get update
[02:32] <Seveas> and then retry
[02:32] <wastrel> er client
[02:32] <tallmf> I mean CLI

[02:32] <brianP> but it can't seem to talk to the dhcp server
[02:32] <Seveas> arp, ok, may be server side then, I'll pass it on
[02:32] <LjL> nibblesmx: dapper?
[02:33] <brenner> tallmf: cd ~/Desktop
[02:33] <nibblesmx> LjL: yes
[02:33] <arp> Seveas, wait...it workede

[02:33] <Seveas> arp, ah nice
[02:33] <iceman> there any gkrellm desklets you can apt-get ?
[02:33] <wrod> i want to replace it with fluxbox or something
[02:33] <ELpH95o> what file would you edit wrod ?
[02:33] <argy> brenner:it won`t let me display it

[02:33] <brianP> i hate having to reboot, but its the only thing that fixes it
[02:33] <Eleaf> Seveas, ?
[02:33] <newubuntuman> same error LjL

[02:33] <Eleaf> nevermind

[02:33] <ELpH95o> i have reading to do though (Manuals)
[02:33] <brenner> argy: what do you mean?
[02:33] <wrod> i guess i can change the run level
[02:33] <wrod> to 3
[02:33] <wastrel> brianP:  have you tried reloading the kernel module for your wifi card
[02:34] <arp> Seveas, sorry, It worked this time :)  Weird though becayse  had been doing that all the time
[02:34] <wrod> and edit ~/.xinitrc, and then put a diff window manager in there
[02:34] <nickrud> runlevels are all the same!
[02:34] <wrod> i guess?
[02:34] <wrod> nickrud what?
[02:34] <newubuntuman> subprocess post-removal script returned error exit status 1
[02:34] <mclamb> is there something like Yakuake for the gnome??
[02:34] <Xenguy> nibblesmx: /topic
[02:34] <pingu> Can anyone think of the most straight-foward way to get some 2.6.15 kernel modules onto a hoary install CD?
[02:34] <iceman> that the other aplett package for gnome ... not gkrellm ---
[02:34] <argy> brenner: it says Couldn't display "/dev/dvd"
[02:34] <bimberi> iceman: gdesklets
[02:34] <brianP> wastrel, no i have the module compiled in
[02:34] <wrod> nickrud how are all runlevels the same? that doesn't make any sense
[02:34] <tallmf> brenner: is that the right code? cd /desktop?
[02:34] <iceman> bimberi thanks .. thats the one
[02:35] <Boelcke> I've had some flaky behavior with gdesklets...
[02:35] <brenner> argy: then use the correct device instead of /dev/dvd
[02:35] <newubuntuman> any other ideas LjL?
[02:35] <nickrud> wrod: in ubuntu, runlevels 2-5 are essentially the same. They don't control what things from /etc/init.d/ are run, nor control X differently
[02:35] <tolkan> are you guys discussing dapper at all in here?
[02:35] <nickrud> tolkan: #ubuntu+1
[02:35] <brenner> tallmf: no.  read it again
[02:35] <Eleaf> tolkan, yea, a lot of people do
[02:35] <Eleaf> sometiems
[02:35] <newubuntuman> is there some way where i can delete the link to it so it goes away? it should hurt anything, should it?
[02:35] <wastrel> brianP:  how about clearing the routing table and/or arp cache?
[02:35] <argy> brenner: should i set it to dma=1? when i do
[02:35] <tolkan> having some problems with xserver-xgl since the newest release
[02:36] <nickrud> wrod: well, they do control /etc/init.d/, but /etc/rc*.d are all identical, unless you yourself change them.
[02:36] <brenner> argy: i thought you already did.  i was just trying to check if it really is enabled
[02:36] <brenner> argy: -d will check, -d1 will enable
[02:36] <tallmf>  cd ~/Desktop..says no directory exists
[02:36] <brianP> wastrel, how do you that ?
[02:36] <newubuntuman> under your home folder and your name tallmf
[02:36] <newubuntuman> cd /home/name/Desktop
[02:36] <brenner> tallmf: are you root?
[02:36] <tallmf> yes
[02:36] <argy> brenner: i followed the things to do on the ubuntu site
[02:37] <brenner> tallmf: that's why.  newubuntuman's method will work for you
[02:37] <Eleaf> tallmf, yea, a desktop directory isn't always created, especially if you did a server install or are root etc.
[02:37] <argy> brenner :ok will try
[02:37] <wastrel> brianP:  route del  for removing routes.  (just route will show the current kernel routing table)
[02:37] <noclip> newbie question: in general, where in the filesystem should i install software? i installed firefox and thunderbird into /opt because that's what https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion told me to, but in general, where should i put things? (for example, i'm installing java right now...)
[02:37] <brianP> wastrel, ok cool i'll try that
[02:38] <brenner> argy: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DMA
[02:38] <mclamb> hi, is there something like yakuake for the gnome???
[02:38] <Boelcke> noclip, aren't you just letting Synaptec decide where to put it?
[02:38] <brenner> argy: it's not dma = 1 anyway, it's dma = on
[02:38] <brenner> in hdparm.conf
[02:38] <Raethis> hey guys... I've a question for you. Does ubunto support wireless networking and if so where can I find a guide to follow to set it up on a Dell Inspiron 2200
[02:38] <Bilange> Boelcke: noclip probably downloaded directly from mozilla or java.com, etc
[02:38] <IdleOne> !tell no clip about java
[02:38] <thrice`> !wireless
[02:38] <ubotu> well, wireless is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCards
[02:38] <IdleOne> !wireless

[02:39] <Raethis> :) dank shen
[02:39] <argy> ok thanks brenner
[02:39] <mediated> Hello.  I asked a question yesterday about the Live CDs crashing after Gnome loads.  I was wondering if you guys had any more suggestions.  I'm running it on a Dell Dimension 2100
[02:39] <noclip> Boelcke: not in this case; firefox1.5 and thunderbird1.5 aren't in the repositories (or maybe i did something wrong?), so i got it from mozilla.org and installed it according to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion
[02:39] <IdleOne> !tell noclip  about jave
[02:39] <brenner> noclip: if you use deb files, they usually put the things in the right places. e.g. docs go in /usr/share/doc, executables go in /usr/bin etc.  google for the linux filesystem for more info
[02:39] <Boelcke> Bilange, yes, I figured that.  But, being a relative newbie myself, I find Syaptic so simple...
[02:39] <noclip> !tell noclip about java
[02:40] <fruitbag> Are people alive here?
[02:40] <_jason> mediated: what have you tried?  (so we don't just repeat what you heard yesterday)
[02:40] <fruitbag> Thank god I had a copy of Ubuntu lying around!
[02:40] <argy> brenner thanks that seems to have fixed it...ta very much like
[02:40] <brenner> argy: np
[02:40] <fruitbag> My Windows system failed, and I'm using this as an emergency.
[02:41] <mediated> I tried a couple modifiers on startup 'apics=off' 'noapics' 'nolapics' and another couple miscellaneous options.
[02:41] <LjL> fruitbag: we're alive
[02:41] <Bilange> noclip: its probably not the linux way to do it, but i created a directory /usr/apps, with firefox/thunderbird/java in a seperate directory inside it.. then I just added shortcuts in gnome
[02:41] <fruitbag> Can someone help out?
[02:41] <LjL> fruitbag: ask your question
[02:41] <Santiagux> hii
[02:41] <argy> my last question is.... does anyone know how to get steam working at all on wine? i`ve tried everything .It crashes after the steam update
[02:41] <thrice`> fruitbag: not with windows stuff
[02:41] <zobi1> Is it possible to install Ubuntu without a CD, just over the net?
[02:41] <fruitbag> thrice: anti-windows?
[02:42] <_jason> mediated: how far do you get?  do you login and then crash?
[02:42] <IdleOne> fruitbag:  no not anti-windows
[02:42] <LjL> zobi1: it's possible with debian, but i haven't found a way to do that with ubuntu. can't exclude it's possible, though
[02:42] <canllaith> Heya! I'm trying to do an ubuntu pxe install. I've got the installer booting up and it's now asking me which mirror to use. I have a local mirror I'd like to specify because the internet traffic is much cheaper for me: http://packages.debian.co.nz/ubuntu/
[02:42] <fruitbag> Without my copy of ubuntu, I would have been unable to surf the 'net.
[02:42] <mediated> no, it crashes right before the login screen.
[02:42] <LjL> fruitbag: no, it's just that this is ubuntu's support channel, not windows'
[02:42] <nickrud> fruitbag: depends on what you need. (after you're done, you may never go back to windows)
[02:42] <canllaith> I'm wondering if I can use that mirror to install from and if so, what exactly do I need to type into the mirror box ? I've tried a few variations on http://packages.debian.co.nz/ubuntu/dists/breezy but it doesn't like it much
[02:42] <IdleOne> fruitbag:  your going to need to reinstall windows I would think
[02:43] <mediated> the last messomeone mentioned i might have a problem with the integrated graphics controller
[02:43] <_jason> mediated: you can try using the vesa driver although i do not think it will work
[02:43] <fruitbag> Idle: yes, I was looking for a copy.
[02:43] <fruitbag> I actually considered downloading it here, and then burning.
[02:43] <nickrud> fruitbag: you won't get help with that here, sorry
[02:43] <canllaith> oops sorry, it's dapper I'm trying to install not breezy
[02:43] <IdleOne> fruitbag:  hehe I see
[02:43] <fruitbag> nick: no, no help.
[02:44] <fruitbag> ...how Ubuntu has come to use!
[02:44] <_jason> mediated: when it crashes can you still get to a prompt of some kind? (maybe by hitting ctrl+alt+f1)
[02:44] <mediated> it has and underscore in the top left corner, but it's unresponsive
[02:44] <IdleOne> fruitbag:  if you dont absolutely need windows dont reinstall it
[02:44] <_jason> mediated: ctrl+alt+f1 work?
[02:44] <mediated> lemme check...
[02:44] <LjL> fruitbag: look, if you need to know how to do something *in ubuntu*, we can help you here
[02:45] <LjL> fruitbag: (though obviously nobody will help you find a copy of windows ;)
[02:45] <RollyW> LjL: how come it wont allow me to intall VLC?
[02:45] <matt_> Hiyas all
[02:45] <LjL> RollyW: what won't?
[02:45] <IdleOne> hello matt_
[02:45] <wastrel> it's not that i don't like windows, it's just that i don't know anything about it :] 
[02:46] <lampshade> In the /etc/network/interfaces file, if I comment out the auto eth0, will that mean that it will still setup, but not try to bring up my eth0?  Basically, during boot up, the system comes to a near halt while it waits for interfaces and I think it is in part because it is constantly trying to get eth0 going when all I want is my eth1 wireless.
[02:46] <RollyW> well, im BRAND new to linux altogther.. i'll tell you what it says when i try to install VLC
[02:46] <wastrel> lampshade:  that would work
[02:46] <brenner> canllaith: might be helpful: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Archive
[02:46] <LjL> RollyW: ok, just don't paste more than one line of text here
[02:46] <LjL> RollyW: use the pastebin (see the channel topic) if you need to do that
[02:48] <brenner> heh, pre-emptive flood prevention
[02:48] <LjL> yep :)
[02:48] <RollyW> it is telling me gnome-vlc "depends" on these other files
[02:48] <LjL> RollyW: did you use "sudo aptitude install vlc" to install?
[02:48] <fruitbag> What CD burning software is available here in Ubuntu?
[02:48] <canllaith> brenner: no, I already have a mirror and I can't use any of those. My country only has one mirror that's cheap traffic for me that I know of (we pay by the MB here)
[02:49] <koll2786> gnomebaker
[02:49] <canllaith> brenner: I just can't seem to figure out what part of the URL to give it
[02:49] <matt_> just found this chat in my Ubuntu directory, very cool
[02:49] <LjL> fruitbag: i use cdrecord from the command line
[02:49] <RollyW> LjlL: if i did, i don'y know that i did.
[02:49] <RollyW> *don't
[02:49] <LjL> RollyW: hm, well, what command did you use to install? =)
[02:49] <fruitbag> LjL: are the commands simple to master?
[02:49] <nickrud> fruitbag: for an iso, just right click it and 'write to disk'
[02:50] <fruitbag> What about for BIN and *.CUE files?
[02:50] <LjL> fruitbag: no, not really, but "man <command>" and "<command> --help" are a great help
[02:50] <matt_> bye all
[02:50] <RollyW> i just tried to check the box marked "gnome-vlc" in the synaptic package manager
[02:50] <varsendagger> bye
[02:50] <koll2786> nerolinux?
[02:50] <koll2786> :P
[02:50] <LjL> fruitbag: also, if you type "cd writing howto" into google, the first hit you'll find is a good guide
[02:50] <wastrel> what's a CUE ?
[02:50] <LjL> fruitbag: in any case, you'll probably be just fine using gnomebaker or whatever
[02:50] <Raethis> cue is an image oO
[02:50] <Raethis> like .iso
[02:50] <canllaith> aha, I need to not use the http:// infront
[02:51] <LjL> fruitbag: though if something goes wrong with it, then i do suggest giving the cd-writing howto a look
[02:51] <LjL> RollyW: i see. well, close synaptic and try "sudo aptitude install vlc"
[02:51] <koll2786> cue is a sheet instructing a burning client how to burn a specific image
[02:51] <fruitbag> Heh -- without Ubuntu, I would have been in trouble.
[02:51] <wastrel> is there a way to play TV shows downloaded from itunes on linux?
[02:51] <LjL> RollyW: (not that there is anything wrong with synaptic, but i'm not used to that way)
[02:51] <koll2786> fruitbag: no idea
[02:51] <mediated> _jason I tried the zntrl alt f1 command, to no avail
[02:51] <Henry_Bean> hello, i installed dapper three days ago, i'm happy, but i don't have other terminals using ctrl+alt+F*...
[02:52] <RollyW> LjL: excuse my noobiness. what is "sudo aptidude install vlc"?
[02:52] <koll2786> probably not
[02:52] <Henry_Bean> any idea? i'm at level 3, it should work
[02:52] <koll2786> as apples drm is on it
[02:52] <_jason> mediated: hrmm I don't know what to do on a livecd then
[02:52] <Raethis> umm... about the wireless networking... the wireless nic on my laptop isn't listed in that page you gave me a little while ago... its a dell wireless 1370 wireless wlan mini-PCI Card. Is there any general wnic 'driver' I could use for it?
[02:52] <wastrel> Henry_Bean:  alt-f2  doesn't work?
[02:52] <LjL> fruitbag: you've been told already (a few times), but since you probably have to reinstall window anyway, it might be a good time to try a dual-boot setup with windows and linux
[02:52] <Henry_Bean> wastrel: nop
[02:53] <brenner> RollyW: aptitude is a command line interface to apt.  synaptic is a GUI
[02:53] <Hollowman8904> how can i make a script for this x-chat program.. to make it identify me with nickserv when i connect
[02:53] <LjL> RollyW: "sudo" makes you run the following command as root (which is needed for installing). "aptitude" is a program for APT management, just like synaptic. "install" is the aptitude command to install, and "vlc" is the name of the package
[02:53] <wastrel> Henry_Bean:  i suggest that your other VT's aren't being started at runlevel 3
[02:53] <Hollowman8904> im used to doing it with mirc, but thats it
[02:53] <brenner> RollyW: you need to type that in a terminal and it will attempt to install vlc
[02:53] <_jason> Hollowman8904: no scirpt needed, should be in the server connect options somewhere iirc
[02:53] <Henry_Bean> wastrel: i really don't understand so much this issue :S... could u take a look at my /etc/inittab at http://pastebin.com/579430, please?
[02:54] <Hollowman8904> ah ok
[02:54] <Hollowman8904> thanks
[02:54] <RollyW> rofl, so much different than windows, i literally 'just decided to switch', trying to force myself into learning something useful. what is a terminal?
[02:54] <brenner> Hollowman8904: xchat>serverlist>edit
[02:54] <Hollowman8904> how do i edit what starts up when i login to KDE?
[02:54] <mediated> Well i'm somewhat of a newbie, and I'm trying to get a dual boot machine set up for someone who's barely used linux, and I don't know if the install is going to work when 2 different liveCDs fail...  I posted this on ubuntu forums, but people have pointed to the integrated graphic controller.
[02:54] <klaxian> how do i configure my synaptics touchpad with breezy?  the mouse preference doesn't seem to help anything
[02:54] <IdleOne> !tell RollyW about cli
[02:54] <Hollowman8904> example, i have a console window that comes up every time, but nothing is in it
[02:55] <mediated> They didn't tell me what to do about the integrated graphics controller either.
[02:55] <wastrel> Henry_Bean:  well it does look like it should be starting those vt's...
[02:55] <mediated> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=138147
[02:55] <brenner> Hollowman8904: did you save your session when you logged out?
[02:55] <IdleOne> Hollowman8904:  join #kubuntu for help with kde
[02:55] <IdleOne> ()
[02:55] <RollyW> ok, just liek command prompt in windows then?
[02:55] <Raethis> about wireless networking in ubunto... the wireless nic on my laptop isn't listed in that page you gave me a little while ago... its a dell wireless 1370 wireless wlan mini-PCI Card. Is there any general wirelass nic 'driver' I could use for it?
[02:55] <IdleOne> RollyW:  yeah but more powerful
[02:55] <Raethis> ubuntu*
[02:55] <RollyW> ok, now how do i open it?
[02:56] <Henry_Bean> wastrel: thanx... yes... it should, but it doesn't... somebody tells me that could be an udev problem... do u know something about this?
[02:56] <fruitbag> Ah... damn.
[02:56] <fruitbag> I'm going to run intp problems.
[02:56] <RollyW> terminal, :P
[02:56] <Hollowman8904> ok one more thing :)  does anybody have any experience with Cedega?
[02:56] <mikex> do i need to edit grub's menu.lst from terminal or can i edit it in a txt editor
[02:56] <aboapri> OK, so, using samba, the shared folders setting does not seem to do squat.    Tried to tell it to mount my dvd drive on the desktop, and that will not work....    I want to see my dvd drive from my other computer.   any ideas?
[02:56] <fruitbag> Since I'm running a 'live' version, it would be impossible to write CDs.
[02:56] <swim> hi folks, can I increase the menus icon sizes? (gnome)
[02:56] <brenner> mikex: either is fine
[02:56] <aboapri> oh, I can see my home directory in the network, but that is all.
[02:56] <klaxian> does anyone have a laptop with a very sensitive and fast touchpad?  how can i slow it down?
[02:57] <brenner> klaxian: is it a synaptics?
[02:57] <mikex> brenner: will i then be able to boot to the OS i add?
[02:57] <klaxian> brenner: yes i think so...dmesg reports is that way
[02:57] <brenner> mikex: depends if you added ti correctly i guess
[02:57] <RollyW> ok, i tried the line in terminal
[02:58] <mikex> brenner: lol
[02:58] <fruitbag> I can't avoid this, no?
[02:58] <RollyW> and its still telling me i have unresolved dependancies, a few of them
[02:58] <brenner> klaxian: you need to create a section for it in xorg.conf.  read this for more info: /usr/share/doc/xorg-driver-synaptics/README.gz
[02:58] <IdleOne> RollyW:  you installed kubuntu right?
[02:58] <klaxian> brenner: ok thanks
[02:58] <RollyW> i installed "ubuntu"
[02:59] <brenner> speaking of gzipped readme files, i was sure there was something that let you view them w/out extracting...
[02:59] <IdleOne> RollyW:  what are you trying to install?
[02:59] <RollyW> vlc
[02:59] <RollyW> just wanna watch some dvd's :(
[02:59] <mikex> brenner: i typed df in terminal, does not see ntfs partition, system/disk does show ntfs. would it matter?
[02:59] <IdleOne> !tell RollyW  about repos
[02:59] <IdleOne> !tell RollyW  about dvd
[03:00] <RollyW> yes, ive read both of those articles
[03:00] <brenner> mikex: the partition needs to be mounted i think to be viewable with df
[03:00] <RollyW> a) completely over my head, b) after carefully following the latter, i encountered more problems
[03:01] <prower> Hello everyone :> I was trying to find this on the wiki but I didn't have much luck...what packages would I have to install to play videos in kaffeine requiring the w32codecs, besides the codecs themselves?
[03:01] <_jason> RollyW: put the errors you are getting on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ please
[03:01] <RollyW> ok..
[03:01] <fruitbag> Since I'm running Ubuntu with a 'live' disk, will I run into problems when burning disk, and, if so, are there any alternatives for this?
[03:01] <_jason> RollyW: you are using apt from the command line right?
[03:01] <RollyW> terminal yes
[03:01] <wastrel> is there a way to play TV shows downloaded from itunes on linux?
[03:01] <_jason> RollyW: k, just wanted to make sure it would be easy for you to copy and paste
[03:02] <swim> hi folks, can I increase the menus icon sizes? (gnome)
[03:02] <RollyW> yes, i opened terminal, and pasted the line "sudo aptitude install vlc"
[03:02] <RollyW> enetered pass ect
[03:02] <RollyW> *entered
[03:02] <IdleOne> RollyW:  did you enable universe?
[03:02] <_jason> RollyW: k, put the errors on there then and we'll see what's going on

[03:10] <nbound> anyone know how to increase battery life in my laptop running ubuntu
[03:10] <RollyW> plug it in by walls
[03:10] <FunnyLookinHat> nbound, easiest way is to dim the screen
[03:10] <FunnyLookinHat> you can also adjust power management features by right clicking on the batter/plug icon in top right
[03:10] <_jason> RollyW: put your /etc/apt/sources.list on there too please
[03:11] <nbound> oh ok sweet, thanx FunnyLookinHat
[03:11] <PuMpErNiCkLe> dim the screen, underclock the GPU and CPU (if possible), under-spin the HDD (if possible)
[03:11] <FunnyLookinHat> np
[03:12] <RollyW> just want me to open and paste it?
[03:12] <_jason> RollyW: yep
[03:12] <RollyW> can i just type "/etc/apt/sources.list" into the terminal?
[03:13] <carl_fk> no
[03:13] <carl_fk> !paste
[03:13] <ubotu> Don't flood the channel! Please use the pastebin at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ or the channel #flood to paste large amount of text.
[03:13] <FunnyLookinHat> RollyW, more /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:13] <nickrud> RollyW: gedit /etc/apt/sources.list , cut and paste from there, it's easier
[03:13] <brenner> less is more
[03:13] <FunnyLookinHat> yes.
[03:13] <FunnyLookinHat> lol
[03:13] <carl_fk> RollyW - if you need to show us, go to that link
[03:13] <wastrel> FunnyLookinHat:  i only get prefs for the applet when i right-click the battery monitor...
[03:14] <FunnyLookinHat> wastrel, sorry, go to System, Preferences, Screensaver, Advanced
[03:14] <zipper> !upgrade

[03:15] <wastrel> is there a way to play video downloaded from itunes on linux?
[03:15] <RichardC> what is the newest kernel available in ubuntu stable?
[03:16] <wastrel> 2.6.12-10-686
[03:16] <xerophyte> does anybody know what is the menuconfig name for this CONFIG_MEGARAID_MAILBOX kernel config option??
[03:16] <RichardC> alright
[03:16] <RichardC> thanks
[03:16] <Raethis> Hey I never got an answer to my second question... Is it possible to use a generic 'driver' in ubunto for my dell wireless 1370 wlan mini-pci card? and what one should be used
[03:17] <_jason> RollyW: is that the whole file?
[03:17] <Webby`> Hi, I'm having trouble installing ubuntu. I get up to partitioning and when it tries to partition, I get a blue screen with no progress bar. How can I get past this?
[03:17] <KonphuzeD> what do i have to do to have the 'add applications' recognize the manual edits to apt/sources.list ?
[03:17] <lampshade> Raethis, I think that the 1370 might be covered by the ndiswrapper....  my dell uses the ipw2200 and it was autodone by Ubuntu, lemme check real quick
[03:17] <carl_fk> RollyW - are you in Canada?
[03:18] <brenner> wastrel: never used itunes.  i'm curious.  why can't you play them? what format are they?
[03:18] <RollyW> yes
[03:18] <carl_fk> i think you turned your normal repo line into the backport line
[03:18] <Raethis> hmm k cause ubunto won't pick it up automatically
[03:18] <_jason> RollyW: yes, that is the whole file? or yes, you are in canada?
[03:18] <Webby`> anyone?
[03:18] <brenner> KonphuzeD: did you update/reload?
[03:18] <RollyW> both.. whole file excluding comments
[03:18] <_jason> ubotu: tell RollyW about easysource
[03:18] <carl_fk> change line#35 to deb http://ca.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ breezy main restricted universe multiverse
[03:18] <wastrel> brenner:  wellsir i don't know- not going to buy unless i know it'll work :] 
[03:18] <_jason> RollyW: use that site to make yourself a new one, you are missing some stuff
[03:18] <lampshade> KonphuzeD, Advanced, then Reload package information
[03:19] <lampshade> is under one of the menus
[03:19] <carl_fk> or do what _j says - that sounds better
[03:19] <wastrel> brenner:  i'm going to google more - the first couple tries didn't turn up anything useful, so i thought someone in here might know
[03:19] <RollyW> ok.
[03:19] <RollyW> i might need someone to hold my hand along parts of it :P
[03:20] <zipper> !mx518
[03:20] <ubotu> zipper: parse error: Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[03:20] <Daskies> I was watching flash videos an hour ago, and sound was just fine, I left, and just got back. Now no sound. Is this a common Ubuntu problem, or should I try and reinstall shockwave
[03:20] <brenner> wastrel: my guess is either divx avi or .mov.  w32codecs takes care of both
[03:21] <RichardC> what version of the kernel comes with the ubuntu 5.10 iso?
[03:21] <wastrel> brenner:  i believe there's some sort of drm, and it's a new apple video format or so i've heard.
[03:21] <RichardC> is it 2.6.12-9?
[03:21] <KonphuzeD> ok so update seems to be stuck on 17 of 20 downloads
[03:22] <RollyW> uh oh, how do i check what architecture my ubuntu is running?
[03:22] <carl_fk> rollly - i386
[03:22] <_jason> RollyW: are you running it on a mac? or 64bit?
[03:22] <RollyW> 64 bit
[03:22] <carl_fk> huh
[03:23] <_jason> RollyW: and you install the 64bit version of ubuntu?
[03:23] <carl_fk> would have figured someone on 64 would have known
[03:23] <RollyW> lol, well... i know my processor is 64, but i dont know if my install matches that
[03:23] <KonphuzeD> RollyW, type   uname -a   at the terminal shell prompt
[03:23] <WoC> RollyW, I would suggest uname -a
[03:24] <KonphuzeD> ok so update seems to be stuck on 17 of 20 downloads, anything I can do about this??
[03:24] <brenner> KonphuzeD: as in apt-get update?
[03:25] <RollyW> I686, sound right?
[03:25] <nickrud> KonphuzeD: probably you need to change your sources

[03:29] <RollyW> _jason: does 1686 sound right for an amd 3200+?
[03:29] <_jason> RollyW: use 64bit and then 386 and compare, it doesn't seem to make a difference afaict
[03:29] <ssstormy> RollyW, use AthlonXP
[03:29] <ssstormy> RollyW, aka k7

[03:33] <sebix> hi, I use both hoary and breezy. TLA (gnu/arch) archives format are not the same, not compatible. Except from upgrading the distro, is there a workaround?

[03:34] <ubotu> please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and is annoying. Write in complete sentences and keep your replies and questions on one line if possible. Thanks!
[03:34] <Amyn> _jason, i've mounted my windowsXp Hdd successfully and i can access all of the drives as-well. I am unable to play any media file of winXP on Ubuntu. Please let me know with any easiest solution.
[03:34] <carl_fk> sature - any chance you have a dhcp server you can config?
[03:34] <brenner> Francisco: stop flooding.  if someone knows, they'll answer
[03:35] <carl_fk> Francisco... you have been warned
[03:35] <brenner> Francisco: search the forum in the meantime
[03:35] <Suture> carl_fk - no
[03:35] <_jason> ubotu: tell Amyn about w32codecs
[03:35] <Francisco> carl_fk, que es wanted
[03:35] <_jason> Amyn: instalal totem-xine using system > administration > synaptic and install w32codecs using the link in your private message
[03:36] <RollyW> ok, source is generated, now what do  i do with it? replace the old sources.list, or add this to it?
[03:36] <brenner> replace
[03:36] <carl_fk> sature - rats.  you could do a net boot install, but it takes some dhcp configging
[03:36] <Francisco> how can I install notmd to my ubuntu??
[03:36] <_jason> RollyW: gksudo 'gedit /etc/apt/sources.list', and replace the contents
[03:37] <RollyW> is the stuff i have there now useless, the source generated seems to be excluding some stuff
[03:38] <nickrud> RollyW: if want to paste the sources on pastebin, we'd be happy to vet them
[03:38] <RollyW> kk
[03:38] <_jason> RollyW: it should have everything except backports, which I don't recommend to keep in there.  But you can regenerate it with them in there if you want.  Pastebin the final one you made if you feel unsure
[03:39] <moonman> is there a way to sync an ipod with breezy that is not really ghetto?
[03:39] <Toma-> moonman, tried banshee?
[03:39] <moonman> Toma-, im listening
[03:39] <Toma-> !ipod
[03:39] <ubotu> info for syncing your iPod is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IPodHowto
[03:39] <Toma-> directions for it are there
[03:39] <moonman> thank you.
[03:39] <Toma-> np dood
[03:39] <moonman> just what i needed.
[03:40] <Installer36> Jason I have read in hear  not to keep backports in source list just wanted to know why?
[03:40] <Suture> carl_fk - I can get it to do everything it just needs to be able to find the .iso on my hd but it wont
[03:40] <Suture> carl_fk - do you know why?
[03:40] <RollyW> http://pastebin.com/579536 this is the new source code
[03:40] <varsendagger> hey i am getting a video card, should i get a 3d fusion or a chaintech?
[03:40] <Amyn> _jason,  in synaptic installer there's only totem(dummy package) and totem-gstream(based on gstreamer) which one shall i install
[03:40] <varsendagger> nvidia the price is the same, the 3dfusion is a 5500 whereas the chaintech is 5200
[03:41] <_jason> ubotu: tell Amyn about universe
[03:41] <Daskies> Anyone know why I'm getting:
[03:41] <KonphuzeD> ca repositories for ubuntu suck cause they keep failing
[03:41] <andrew__> hey all - how do i log out another user on my system if i am root?
[03:41] <tsipper> Need some help, a) what is the best IPOD software for ubuntu and b) is their a guide on-line that makes setting it up easy?
[03:41] <Daskies> jordan@Jordan:/etc/esound$ ./esd.conf
[03:41] <Daskies> bash: ./esd.conf: Permission denied
[03:41] <KonphuzeD> what is a better replacement
[03:41] <Daskies> Do I need to sudo something?
[03:41] <Amyn> _jason,  ive read all the thing abt univers and multiverse
[03:41] <_jason> RollyW: that's fine, you don't have backports and PLF that you had before just so you know
[03:42] <RollyW> what are backports and PLF?
[03:42] <nickrud> RollyW: those are good, but apparently canadian sources are sometimes bad; remove ca. wherever it appears
[03:42] <varsendagger> andrew__, adduser name
[03:42] <_jason> Amyn: totem-xine should be in universe, put your /etc/apt/sources.list on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ if you want
[03:42] <varsendagger> i think
[03:42] <KonphuzeD> it takes synaptic almost 5 minutes to time out and finally allow to continue with out them
[03:42] <Amyn> but i;m unable to understand their relation with installing any supported player for xp multimedia
[03:42] <Toma-> ubotu, tell tsipper about ipod
[03:42] <varsendagger> man addusr
[03:42] <_jason> RollyW: backports are updates that are backported from dapper, PLF is for packages like w32codecs and java that aren't in the repos
[03:42] <andrew__> varsendagger, what are you talking about?
[03:42] <varsendagger> adduser
[03:43] <andrew__> if someone else is logged onto my system and I am root - how to do kick them off?
[03:43] <KonphuzeD> any suggests for alternate repository near canada
[03:43] <RollyW> well, is there another way to get w32 codecs?
[03:43] <nickrud> RollyW: if you're looking for odd stuff PLF seems ok, but I don't use them myself
[03:43] <_jason> andrew__: pkill -u username, will kill all their processes
[03:43] <varsendagger> oh i am a retard
[03:43] <Daskies> Grrr
[03:43] <Francisco> hey
[03:43] <Francisco> hry
[03:43] <brenner> KonphuzeD: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Archive
[03:43] <Francisco> notmd???
[03:44] <nickrud> Rolly, http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages are trustable
[03:44] <_jason> RollyW: you can put PLF, just select it in source-o-matic
[03:44] <RollyW> ok, and those will allow for most if not any popular win32 apps?
[03:44] <nickrud> KonphuzeD: I use us. currently (used to be totally bad, seem to work ok now)
[03:45] <_jason> RollyW: PLF stands for penguin liberation front by the way
[03:45] <Amyn> _jason,  after pasting that /etc/apt/sources.list on that url what help will i get ?
[03:45] <farous> RollyW: make sure not to select the dapper backports from seveas. It might cause problems
[03:45] <Toma-> RollyW, it wont run windows apps
[03:45] <RollyW> example, dvd shrink.. nero.. (or does linux have better programs for that stuff?)
[03:45] <_jason> Amyn: my personal help once you give me the link :)
[03:45] <luke> Anyone know how to switch workspaces via terminal?
[03:45] <wastrel> what's dvd shrink
[03:45] <Amyn> _jason,  ok
[03:45] <Toma-> RollyW, yeh. theres a linux dvdshrink in PLF and k3b is an awesome cd/dvd burner
[03:46] <Francisco> hellllllllllllllllllllllllloooooooooooooooooo
[03:46] <Francisco> hey
[03:46] <RollyW> dvd shrink rips and shrinks dvd's into burnable .iso's
[03:46] <Francisco> hey
[03:46] <Francisco> como se dice
[03:46] <brenner> luke: ctrl+alt+;eft/right
[03:46] <Henry_Bean> hello, somebody in dapper (all up to date) has lost the console terminals???
[03:46] <_jason> Francisco: can you pleasae stop doing that?
[03:46] <brenner> s/;eft/left
[03:46] <farous> Francisco: this is the easiest way to get ignored
[03:46] <_jason> Henry_Bean: try #ubuntu+1 for dapper
[03:46] <RollyW> ok, i k3b n PLF?
[03:46] <RollyW> in PLF*
[03:46] <luke> brenner: I want to be able to do it via terminal
[03:46] <Henry_Bean> _jason: thanks
[03:47] <Francisco> _jason, hhow can I say something to somebody about that??
[03:47] <luke> I'm trying to setup advanced key bindings
[03:47] <_jason> RollyW: k3b is in main
[03:47] <nickrud> luke: wmctl has some stuff you want to look at
[03:47] <Toma-> k3b is in the normal repos. requires kdelibs tho, but not the whole lot of kde
[03:47] <RollyW> ok, well ill worry about that after...
[03:47] <RollyW> i tell ya, this is going to take SOME getting used to
[03:47] <Francisco> somebody know about how can I install Net MD
[03:47] <_jason> RollyW: nah
[03:48] <nickrud> RollyW: once you've used it a bit, you'll like it
[03:48] <wastrel> woo what's net md?
[03:48] <luke> nickrud: wmctl?
[03:48] <positrox> How do I restart /etc/rc2.d/ services without rebooting the machine? I disabled portmap and now I want it to affect.
[03:48] <RollyW> i already appreciate the challenge
[03:48] <Toma-> RollyW, are you using synaptic for all your installing and managing your sources.list?
[03:49] <nickrud> luke: it provides some tools for manipulating window managers (metacity in particular). The window manager handles the various desktops
[03:49] <lampshade> What command do you use to specify wireless mode?  Auto, Monitor, etc?
[03:49] <lampshade> what command was that?  Google isn't helping me out :-/
[03:49] <nickrud> luke: I played around with it a while back, but it provided far more control than I needed
[03:49] <Suture> Im trying to install on a second hd from an iso on the first hd but it cant find the iso on the first drive, how can I fix it
[03:49] <RollyW> haha, i've only had the installation since i got home from school
[03:49] <positrox> ifconfig wlan0 mode monitor ?
[03:49] <Toma-> lampshade, youll need to pass a iwconfig option, but dont remember it...
[03:49] <_jason> Amyn: you doing ok?
[03:49] <luke> nickrud: in repo's?
[03:49] <nickrud> luke: yes
[03:49] <positrox> lampshade: ifconfig wlan0 mode monitor ?
[03:49] <brenner> Suture: you need to burn the iso
[03:50] <lampshade> Toma-, I looked through the ifconfig man and I didn't see mode as an option?
[03:50] <Suture> i can't
[03:50] <Toma-> iwconfig
[03:50] <Toma-> not ifconfig
[03:50] <nickrud> luke: it's actually wmctrl, sorry, and it's in universe
[03:50] <positrox> lampshade: its not that
[03:50] <luke> nickrud: thanks
[03:50] <wastrel> iwconfig  ?
[03:51] <Toma-> eg. iwconfig eth0 mode monitor or ad-hoc or auto and so on
[03:51] <positrox> iwconfig yes of course
[03:51] <positrox> lampshade: iwconfig wlan0 mode monitor
[03:51] <wastrel> man page to the rescue
[03:51] <nickrud> luke: if you're really serious about programming your desktop, another package to look at is devilspie
[03:51] <RollyW> lol, ok. I cant seem to delete the text held within sources.list
[03:51] <positrox> How do I restart /etc/rc2.d/ services without rebooting the machine? I disabled portmap and now I want it to affect.
[03:51] <luke> Second question would be what is the command that gnome/metacity uses to manipulate the volume?  You can set it up in keyboard shortcuts, but what program does this shortcut call?
[03:52] <RollyW> to i need to open it with an external app?
[03:52] <RollyW> *do i*
[03:52] <Toma-> RollyW, id use synaptic to manage your sources.list rather than by hand
[03:52] <_jason> RollyW: did you use: gksudo 'gedit /etc/apt/sources.list', to open it?
[03:52] <Amyn> _jason,  nahh
[03:52] <pete_> can somone please help me with this error, my computer keeps freezing localhost kernel [4294718.778000]  ata1: translated ATA stat/err 0xec/00 to SCSI SK/ASC/ASCQ 0xb/47/00
[03:52] <_jason> Amyn: ?
[03:52] <andytek> join #andytek
[03:52] <Amyn> how do i open that sources.list ?
[03:52] <_jason> Amyn: gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:52] <Toma-> wtf? spam?
[03:52] <positrox> Amyn: nano /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:53] <Amyn> gedit or nano ?
[03:53] <RollyW> is this: "gksudo 'gedit /etc/apt/sources.list'" the line
[03:53] <_jason> Amyn: whatever you like
[03:53] <Toma-> synaptic is the best sources editor :(
[03:53] <positrox> depends what you prefer
[03:53] <_jason> RollyW: yes with the ' but not with the  "
[03:53] <RollyW> yeah
[03:53] <positrox> nano is console and gedit X
[03:53] <_jason> RollyW: and you can't edit the file?
[03:53] <RollyW> gksudo is include, though?
[03:53] <yoyo> hi everybody
[03:53] <_jason> RollyW: yes
[03:53] <RollyW> included
[03:53] <yoyo> one question about security
[03:53] <RollyW> oh, ok. thats prolly my problem
[03:54] <Toma-> yo, yoyo :)
[03:54] <yoyo> i'm using ubuntu since quite a month and everything
[03:54] <yoyo> was running ok
[03:54] <Toma-> !enter
[03:54] <ubotu> please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and is annoying. Write in complete sentences and keep your replies and questions on one line if possible. Thanks!
[03:54] <yoyo> but a week ago, internet is really slow
[03:54] <swim> does anyone know if its possible to increase the size of the icons in the gnome menus? (the ones on the panel) ?
[03:54] <yoyo> I verified firestarter and I have two active connections
[03:55] <yoyo> and I don't know why are they there
[03:55] <yoyo> Toma, any hints?
[03:55] <brenner> swim: increase the panel size
[03:55] <yoyo> the active connections are
[03:55] <swim> brenner, no other way at all?
[03:55] <nickrud> swim: no, those sizes are hardcoded, based on panel size
[03:55] <Toma-> stop using enter for punctuation please.
[03:55] <yoyo> localhost to localhost: 631 lpp
[03:55] <yoyo> and the other one is
[03:55] <Toma-> thats cupsd, your printed
[03:55] <Toma-> *printer
[03:55] <swim> as a matter of fact changing the panel size doesnt change the menu icon size
[03:55] <yoyo> localhost to 213.4.130.11: 80 HTTP
[03:56] <Toma-> that looks like a http server
[03:56] <brenner> i actually disabled the menu icons.  no menu lag anymore
[03:56] <nickrud> swim: I've played around a bit with icon themes, it is either 22x22, 24x24, or a few other sizes. no other options
[03:56] <yoyo> indeed Toma... except that I didn't install any http server
[03:56] <RollyW> ok, ive updated the sources.list file... i think. now retry the vlc install?
[03:56] <swim> nickrud, you say a few other sizes?
[03:56] <yoyo> and for the cups... the first weeks, I didn't notice any lpp whatosever
[03:56] <varsendagger> so my boss was asking me about open source and how it can be free, why is this?
[03:56] <N6pfk> Hello, I am trying to setup a printer to be shared on my network and am having no luck!
[03:56] <yoyo> and I was able to rpint though
[03:56] <brenner> RollyW: update/reload first
[03:57] <KonphuzeD> why do these repositories not work. why does it appear to hang the whole process and then say incomplete packages list which means you just cant be sure your getting what your supposed to. Causing serious Brain Pain
[03:57] <positrox> RollyW: apt-get update
[03:57] <_jason> RollyW: sudo aptitude update, first
[03:57] <brenner> varsendagger: free as in beer or free as in freedom?
[03:57] <wastrel> varsendagger:  http://www.opensource.org/
[03:57] <Toma-> yoyo, its a spanish server IP, email these guys abuse@terra.es and report that youve got an unverified connection on port 80 from that ip "213.4.130.11"
[03:57] <yoyo> amazing
[03:57] <nickrud> swim: a few other hard codes sizes, if I remember right, if you change the system font sufficiently, the menu icons will change size. But, you're basically looking at a dead end for customization
[03:57] <N6pfk> What is the correct url for a local usb printer using cups?
[03:57] <Toma-> yoyo, can you put a copy of "ps aux" on a pastebin plz?
[03:58] <Toma-> !pastebin
[03:58] <ubotu> pastebin is, like, a site where you can post large texts and screenshots so you don't flood the channel. You can find it at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org - Install webboard for easy pasting from the gnome taskbar :)
[03:58] <yoyo> how did you know that it was abuse@terra.es
[03:58] <wastrel> varsendagger:  http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html
[03:58] <yoyo> yeap toma
[03:58] <yoyo> wait a sec... thanks by the way
[03:58] <Toma-> yoyo, a simple whois on the ip :)
[03:58] <h3ax> how by the name of god can my clean install of MYSQL refuse ROOT from connecting
[03:58] <Toma-> np
[03:58] <RollyW> argh, i hate it when updates get stuck on 99%
[03:58] <Toma-> h3ax, theres no root on ubuntu?
[03:59] <yoyo> err... what is pastebin?
[03:59] <h3ax> well SU then what ever ya call it
[03:59] <yoyo> ps aux, shows at least 80 lines
[03:59] <Toma-> ubotu, tell yoyo about pastebin
[03:59] <Amyn> _jason,  did you get the notice ?
[03:59] <Toma-> yoyo, read the topic
[03:59] <yoyo> got it toma
[03:59] <Amyn> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/i9610
[03:59] <_jason> Amyn: you usually provide a link, but yes I found it
[03:59] <Toma-> actually its not in the topic...
[04:00] <Toma-> yoyo, ok, copy and paste it all there
[04:00] <_jason> Amyn: I need you to copy the text and paste it into the browser, it may be easier to use gedit
[04:00] <nyc-h0st> hi guys, anyone here know much about sendmail?
[04:00] <synth> whats the name of this new beta w/kde 3.5.1 ?
[04:00] <RollyW> still stuck on 99%, could that be the 'ca' acting up?
[04:00] <Amyn> whats the command for gedit ?
[04:00] <Toma-> yoyo, also include the time of the connection was found in that email, seems its a dynamic ip
[04:00] <Amyn> i am unable to copy stuff from nano
[04:00] <nyc-h0st> hi guys, anyone here know much about sendmail?
[04:00] <KonphuzeD> ok how can I get synaptic to give up after the first time out or file not found it encounters and then just move on to the next one
[04:00] <_jason> Amyn: 'gedit' is the command
[04:01] <yoyo> Toma... is there any way I can stop the connection?
[04:01] <_jason> Amyn: never mind, I see that you have universe enabled from the screenshot
[04:01] <Toma-> yoyo, yep, after i see this ps aux
[04:01] <nickrud> KonphuzeD: if it fails on any file, you have problems that have nothing to do with synaptic
[04:01] <brenner> KonphuzeD: you can't afaik.  if there's a problematic source the whole thing fails
[04:01] <_jason> Amyn: you must have just missed totem-xine, do 'sudo aptitude install totem-xine' in a terminal
[04:02] <h3ax> ... is there a "manual" way to set MySql pass in Ubuntu ?
[04:02] <KonphuzeD> what the hell is that no recourse for a repository timing out
[04:02] <Amyn> _jason,  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9611
[04:02] <RollyW> _jason: im having issues completing the upadte, connection timed out on one of them
[04:02] <Kr4t05> Anywho
[04:02] <Extreme_Unction> RollyW: Remove it from your repository list then?
[04:02] <KonphuzeD> repositories just running update from synaptic
[04:02] <nickrud> KonphuzeD: the problem lies in the repo, not synaptic
[04:02] <_jason> RollyW: use a different mirror (get rid of the ca.)

[04:03] <KonphuzeD> yes the repository is timing out and synaptic also says file not found
[04:03] <_jason> RollyW: sure
[04:03] <Toma-> cK-gLocK, there is no voicechat in amsn :( only webcam chat so far
[04:03] <yoyo> ok ok Toma
[04:03] <Toma-> yoyo link?
[04:03] <yoyo> I have pasted it... I pressed the button Send
[04:04] <yoyo> here goes... wait
[04:04] <KonphuzeD> each failed repository takes like 5 minutes
[04:04] <brenner> KonphuzeD: pastebin the error log and your sources.list
[04:04] <frank23> anybody here uses DVD Shrink with wine?
[04:04] <Toma-> frank23, i did, once
[04:04] <KonphuzeD> its still not finished running the update yet
[04:04] <wastrel> this distro has a lot of ppl migrating from 'doze
[04:04] <KonphuzeD> it wont exit
[04:04] <Amyn> Initializing package states... Done
[04:04] <Amyn> E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavail able)
[04:04] <Amyn> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another proc ess using it?
[04:04] <yoyo> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9612
[04:04] <nickrud> Toma-: is that a hint that I shouldn't try myself? (I've finally got a dvd writer)
[04:04] <yoyo> Toma, awesome system
[04:05] <varsendagger> brenner, what does free as in beer mean?
[04:05] <Deft> just a quick note to any dapper users, don't try and restart with the libgtk2 from a few hours ago, the one from a few minutes ago fixes things though
[04:05] <Extreme_Unction> Amyn, your using the konsole while the GUI is on
[04:05] <Extreme_Unction> probably
[04:05] <yoyo> at Linux, you have everything!
[04:05] <Extreme_Unction> Close synaptic/etc
[04:05] <brenner> KonphuzeD: click on cancel
[04:05] <frank23> Toma-: I'm trying to run it with the latest wine (0.9.8) and it doesnt work
[04:05] <KonphuzeD> BEER is never free, you can only rent it at best.    If someone offers you free beer, they want something
[04:05] <brenner> varsendagger: no monetary cost
[04:05] <Toma-> frank23, http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?versionId=2230
[04:05] <brenner> or that. :)
[04:05] <Extreme_Unction> Someone gave me a beer because he was drunk
[04:05] <Toma-> nickrud, i just use acidrip
[04:05] <nyc-h0st> helloooooo, anyone here willing to help with sendmail???
[04:06] <Amaranth> KonphuzeD: hackers buy beer for each other all the time :)
[04:06] <nickrud> KonphuzeD: free as in speech, free as in beer is the saying. One you can change, the other you can only use 
[04:06] <varsendagger> and free as in freedom is ?
[04:06] <nickrud> Toma-: thanks.
[04:06] <javiolo> hi
[04:06] <_jason> KonphuzeD: how do you rent beer?
[04:06] <RollyW> ok, sudo aptitude update is done, now retry vlc install?
[04:06] <Amyn> yeah .. installation done. how do i use it ?
[04:06] <_jason> RollyW: yep
[04:06] <KonphuzeD> _jason, at a bar or the beer store
[04:06] <Toma-> yoyo, you realise you have alot of servers running on this PC?
[04:06] <RollyW> what is the command line again?
[04:07] <_jason> Amyn: just run totem as normal
[04:07] <brenner> varsendagger: freedom to change or distribute the s/ware
[04:07] <KonphuzeD> lets face it you cant keep the beer
[04:07] <frank23> Toma-: I know. it used to work for me with an earlier wine version. and it should work with the latest wine in ubuntu according to appdb, but it doesnt for me
[04:07] <yoyo> Toma.... nope
[04:07] <varsendagger> ahh
[04:07] <yoyo> Toma.... like... mmmm... which ones?
[04:07] <KonphuzeD> i know I was a Bus Boy before being a Bar Tender
[04:07] <javiolo> I want to access to a server via ssh, where do I have to run ssh-keygen in the server or client ?
[04:07] <_jason> KonphuzeD: ha I see :)
[04:07] <yoyo> Toma... ok nessus I installed it
[04:08] <Toma-> yoyo, nessus, proftpd
[04:08] <yoyo> proftpd, I installed to share some files at school
[04:08] <robertj> wowzers...http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=8372603330420559198&q=spore <-- there is actually a game coming out that is worth playing!
[04:08] <CryoTox> I need to change permissions on a folder but I don't know the command
[04:08] <danc3> CryoTox: chmod
[04:08] <_jason> CryoTox: chmod
[04:08] <CryoTox> kk
[04:08] <vejan> evening all
[04:08] <yoyo> but I created some policy to allow me to connect to proftpd
[04:08] <javiolo> I want to access to a server via ssh, where do I have to run ssh-keygen in the server or client ?
[04:09] <Kr4t05> !ntfs
[04:09] <ubotu> ntfs is probably the filesystem used in Windows 2000 and newer; to automatically mount your NTFS partition: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions
[04:09] <IdleOne> how do I set a program to startup at boot?
[04:09] <Amyn> _jason, in which folder i can find the executable file of totem ?
[04:09] <brenner> afternoon vejan
[04:09] <vejan> should I use Ubuntu 5.04 for a server I'm building?
[04:09] <_jason> Amyn: applications menu > sound and video > totem
[04:09] <danc3> Amyn: use:  which totem
[04:09] <Extreme_Unction> vejan: Why not use 5.10?
[04:09] <yoyo> by the way, running a quick scan with Nessus I found a message
[04:09] <mediated> !vesa
[04:09] <vejan> which would be better?
[04:10] <yoyo> containing: it seems you have a web server on port 631
[04:10] <CryoTox> is that chmod followed by the number??
[04:10] <danc3> vejan: what's the best car for me to buy?
[04:10] <yoyo> The same as lpp!!!!!!!
[04:10] <Extreme_Unction> Well, using common sense I'd say 5.10 considering you'd just use auto-update and have the same crap as 5.10 anyway.
[04:10] <jrsims> so whens dapper coming out?
[04:10] <Extreme_Unction> Heh.
[04:10] <vejan> foreign
[04:10] <vejan> :)
[04:10] <brenner> jroes: april
[04:10] <danc3> vejan: you see my point?
[04:10] <Extreme_Unction> So, yeah, 5.10.. Though I suggest you get light-weight window manager
[04:10] <Extreme_Unction> Not Ubuntu/KDE
[04:10] <Toma-> yoyo, lpp is a webserver. it servers you access to the print system via 631 in a neat web based config system.
[04:10] <Mangelo> how do i start my gui after its been DLed (i did apt-get on a number of packages from the ubuntu command line). icewm xserver-xfree86 x-window-system-core xdm numlockx  xterm
[04:11] <vejan> yep
[04:11] <danc3> Mangelo: probably "startx"
[04:11] <yoyo> Toma.... ok ok got it
[04:11] <Toma-> yoyo, try opening firefox and goto "localhost:631"
[04:11] <Mangelo> i tried, didnt work =(
[04:11] <Mangelo> its saying command not found
[04:11] <Extreme_Unction> lol
[04:11] <Mangelo> im running it as root (and) as user, on the /
[04:11] <yoyo> wow Toma.... so cool!
[04:11] <danc3> Mangelo: ubuntu?
[04:11] <wastrel> IdleOne:  if it's a GUI program , put it in your gnome sessions dealy
[04:11] <Toma-> :)
[04:11] <Mangelo> ubuntu doesnt work either :|
[04:11] <yoyo> but I swear... I didn't have that before...
[04:12] <danc3> Mangelo: of course it does
[04:12] <Mangelo> lol...well in that case
[04:12] <brenner> Mangelo: xfree86?!
[04:12] <yoyo> well... Firestarter didn't tell me anything about lpp
[04:12] <Plouj> :/
[04:12] <Plouj> I keep getting this error, even with ubuntu dapper: http://plouj.no-ip.com/kubuntu3.jpg
[04:12] <Toma-> yoyo, no-one outside your LAN can access it. not even from another PC i dont think
[04:12] <RollyW> ok, i have vlc installed.
[04:12] <Mangelo> whats that url? pastebin? to show you guys my output
[04:13] <_jason> !pastebin
[04:13] <Plouj> Mangelo: http://paste.opsat.net/
[04:13] <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.ubuntu-nl.org - Install webboard for easy pasting from the gnome taskbar :)
[04:13] <yoyo> ok Toma... the thing is... internet is a bit slower since quite a while...
[04:13] <RollyW> is there anything that will play mp3's?
[04:13] <Toma-> yoyo, have you tried running "localhost:80" from firefox?
[04:13] <Amyn> Totem could not play 'file:///media/hda5/ moviename/Part 1.DAT
[04:13] <yoyo> yeap
[04:13] <Extreme_Unction> That's Ironic.
[04:13] <Toma-> yoyo, mines has slowed down too
[04:13] <Extreme_Unction> You've got a syncmaster monitor but your kernel won't sync..
[04:13] <Extreme_Unction> Heh
[04:13] <_jason> Amyn: .dat hrmm... you installed w32codecs right?
[04:13] <yoyo> in the afternoon I coudn't access any site whatsoever
[04:13] <Mangelo> http://pastebin.com/579569
[04:13] <Extreme_Unction> Well, that's sarcasm.
[04:13] <Plouj> Extreme_Unction: heh
[04:14] <Amyn> _jason,  no i havnt installed them
[04:14] <Plouj> rofl
[04:14] <Plouj> thats hilarious
[04:14] <yoyo> firefox said with a pop-up window: "Connection refused to host www.google.com"
[04:14] <CryoTox> What command do I use after chmod? I need to put it to 777 temporaly
[04:14] <Toma-> yoyo, ISP's can get pretty busy sometimes.
[04:14] <_jason> Amyn: do you still have the link?
[04:14] <yoyo> or something in the like
[04:14] <Toma-> yoyo, right... run "telnet localhost 80"
[04:14] <yoyo> ok
[04:14] <Toma-> see what pops up. put it on a pastebin
[04:14] <Amyn> yea i do
[04:14] <_jason> Amyn: k, install them and try again
[04:14] <Extreme_Unction> Plouj: Have you tried reinstalling Ubuntu?
[04:15] <Plouj> Extreme_Unction: yeah, well, I just installed it for the second time
[04:15] <Plouj> I haven't been able to boot into an installed system yet
[04:15] <yoyo> Toma... it's not happenning anymore
[04:15] <Toma-> yoyo, whats not?
[04:15] <yoyo> firefox is responding ok now
[04:15] <brenner> CryoTox: chmod <mode> <file>
[04:15] <Plouj> I have suspicion that its not working because ubuntu is on a SATA drive
[04:15] <Plouj> but I'm not sure
[04:15] <Extreme_Unction> What CPU architecture?
[04:15] <yoyo> telnet seems no to respond
[04:15] <_jason> CryoTox: what are you doing out of curiousity?
[04:15] <Toma-> yoyo, connection refused?
[04:16] <Amyn> _jason,  i'm on it..
[04:16] <yoyo> ohh yeahh... wait it said Unable to connect to remote host
[04:16] <yoyo> Connection refused
[04:16] <Toma-> good
[04:16] <Plouj> Extreme_Unction: amd64
[04:16] <Extreme_Unction> amd64 ubuntu?
[04:16] <Toma-> yoyo, that means theres no server on that port
[04:16] <yoyo> ok ok
[04:16] <nickrud> Plouj: I don't have a sata drive, but I hear people have problems with that and linux installs, try searching your exact chipset
[04:16] <Plouj> Extreme_Unction: yes, I got the 64bit one
[04:17] <Plouj> nickrud: searching for what exactly?
[04:17] <Toma-> in the meantime yoyo get yourself "chkrootkit" and disable ipv6... both might help
[04:17] <CryoTox> _jason: Thanks alot man
[04:17] <Extreme_Unction> All of the partitions pertaining to this are on the same harddrive?
[04:17] <Plouj> yea
[04:17] <Plouj> I only got one drive
[04:17] <nickrud> Plouj: maybe something like ubuntu <chipset> install
[04:17] <yoyo> do you need an image of firestarter
[04:17] <yoyo> ?
[04:17] <Toma-> an image?
[04:17] <drip6> hello,  any compiz experts in here?
[04:17] <yoyo> I mean a picture... a png, a gif
[04:17] <danc3> drip6: what's a "compiz"?
[04:17] <Amyn> _jason, u sure i'll be able to run .deb(different version of linux) on ubuntu ?
[04:18] <yoyo> or jpg... I can't disable that 80 HTTP connection
[04:18] <CryoTox> _jason: My MP# player is going screwy and I just got it to work i.e. Open. But it changed all my permisions to root so I needed to change them in command
[04:18] <wastrel> !xgl
[04:18] <ubotu> XGL on Ubuntu: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/XglHowto - Join #ubuntu-xgl for all the XGL fun on Ubuntu systems. It works ONLY on dapper. Pretty videos on http://www.novell.com/linux/xglrelease/
[04:18] <_jason> Amyn: no, that's not really recommended
[04:18] <CryoTox> mp3*
[04:18] <yoyo> I don't know if i'm sending data to those guys at terra whatever
[04:18] <drip6> ok thanks
[04:18] <_jason> Amyn: the .deb for the w32codecs though is known to work well
[04:18] <Amyn> _jason, okay
[04:21] <Kr4t05> I did have Ubuntu, but figured on giving KDE a whirl.
[04:21] <Kr4t05> So
[04:21] <Kr4t05> Yeah
[04:21] <Kr4t05> Now, I guess it's Kubuntu
[04:21] <Extreme_Unction> Like it?
[04:21] <Extreme_Unction> I prefer KDE over Ubuntu for Desktop use myself.
[04:21] <Kr4t05> It's prettier than GNOME
[04:21] <KonphuzeD> !pastebin
[04:21] <ubotu> pastebin is probably a site where you can post large texts and screenshots so you don't flood the channel. You can find it at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org - Install webboard for easy pasting from the gnome taskbar :)
[04:22] <basbrya1> is kde free as in libre?
[04:22] <Kr4t05> Er...
[04:22] <wastrel> some people don't care for the qt license
[04:22] <Kr4t05> Maybe?
[04:22] <h3ax> ... what am i missing 'chown -R mysql:mysql:mysql'
[04:22] <nickrud> dfsg, anyway
[04:22] <cafuego> h3ax: One too many colons.
[04:22] <Plouj> gosh darn it!
[04:23] <Plouj> I can't find useful info for my problem
[04:23] <Plouj> this really sucks
[04:23] <wastrel> i think qt is under an opensource licence nowadays though
[04:23] <h3ax> .. mm no one has commented it in the "Mysql" help stuff on thiere website
[04:23] <Extreme_Unction> Try the live disk, try other linux dstros are my only thoughts.
[04:23] <Kr4t05> The only thing keeping me from losing Windows entirely is the fact that TransGaming stopped releasing Cedega CVS packages. :/
[04:23] <linkd> h3ax: chown -R mysql:mysql filename
[04:23] <linkd> h3ax: thats the correct command
[04:23] <Extreme_Unction> Kr4t05, I have found some pretty cool games for Linux that allowed me to ditch Windows
[04:23] <Extreme_Unction> :)
[04:23] <RollyW> ok, vlc doesnt want to spit out any sound :S
[04:23] <h3ax> ok thanks
[04:24] <Mangelo> Extreme_Unction, what like?
[04:24] <Toma-> Kr4t05, rubbish
[04:24] <Kr4t05> I could never leave NFS: Underground @ Extreme_Unction

[04:26] <_jason> Amyn: gwget and d4x I like
[04:26] <Kr4t05> Just, when I rightclick the link you gave me, and direct it to FireFox, nothing happens.
[04:26] <Kr4t05> No biggie.
[04:26] <Kr4t05> Just a peeve.
[04:26] <Toma-> Amyn, aget

[04:29] <HammerBlade2020> mac sucks
[04:29] <Extreme_Unction> Mac OS X is pretty secure actually. It's not too bad.
[04:29] <aspegik> hi!
[04:30] <Kr4t05> Yeah.
[04:30] <tritium> HammerBlade2020: no need for that

[04:30] <Toma-> like dapper ;D
[04:30] <HammerBlade2020> tritium~ sure their is.
[04:30] <Kr4t05> Still rather amusing, none-the-less.

[04:33] <Extreme_Unction> xrgb is probably just fooked.
[04:33] <RollyW> what does every1 use for mp3?
[04:33] <Installer36> How can I get xffm on the bottom tool bar
[04:34] <Extreme_Unction> I use KDE, so amarok.. On Gnome it's usually XMMS
[04:34] <_jason> RollyW: amarok is really nice, beep-media-player is nice too if you want something simpler
[04:34] <robertj> Rhythmbox
[04:34] <Installer36> This is Xfce4
[04:34] <seawolf_> mpg123 :D

[04:34] <Installer36> Just messing around withit
[04:34] <_jason> RollyW: synaptic
[04:34] <RollyW> it'll be in there?
[04:34] <frank23> KonphuzeD: the ca.archive.ubuntu.com  repos are not working right now. if yours are actually the same, that explains it
[04:34] <_jason> RollyW: yes
[04:35] <Extreme_Unction> Get adept and ditch synaptic, while your at it!
[04:35] <Installer36> aspegik  try samba
[04:35] <varsendagger> ahhh how can i get a .jpeg to scale without it getting all deforemd using inkscape?
[04:35] <KonphuzeD> frank23, I changed those to sometin else arctic. yea
[04:35] <biovore> varsendagger: its a jepg.. it will deform if you scale it.
[04:36] <kevogod> Extreme_Unction: And what does Adept do that is special?
[04:36] <KonphuzeD> theres a gpg err and seveas err
[04:36] <wastrel> what's inkscape?
[04:36] <varsendagger> how aobut if i save it as a svg in inkscape and do some kind of trickery?
[04:36] <trpr42> kevogod: nothing. just another apt frontend
[04:36] <Extreme_Unction> I wasn't being serious, just a preference.
[04:36] <kevogod> Go aptitude
[04:36] <kevogod> You can't lose
[04:36] <varsendagger> it is like adobe illustartor
[04:36] <brenner> KonphuzeD: sounds like the canadian mirror is bad.  ask Seveas about the 2nd problem
[04:36] <Kr4t05> Wait
[04:37] <yoyo> mmmm..... so....
[04:37] <IdleOne> _jason:  can you help with getting a program to load at startup?
[04:37] <yoyo> any hints on this?
[04:37] <Kr4t05> I used apt to get doomlegacy, someone wanna refresh my memory on the command to start it?
[04:37] <Kr4t05> !doomlegacy
[04:37] <Extreme_Unction> doomlegacy?
[04:37] <ubotu> Kr4t05: Syntax error in line 1. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/

[04:37] <ubotu> I don't know, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, Kr4t05
[04:37] <Kr4t05> !doom
[04:37] <ubotu> it has been said that doom is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Doom3

[04:37] <Extreme_Unction> try doomlegacy
[04:37] <_jason> IdleOne: system > prefs > sessions > startup
[04:37] <varsendagger> man doomlegcy
[04:37] <IdleOne> _jason:  thanks ()
[04:38] <Kr4t05> command not found
[04:38] <robertj> Kr4t05, dpkg -L doomlegacy|grep bin might help
[04:38] <Extreme_Unction> Not enough time in the world to configure all perfect
[04:39] <KonphuzeD> ok then does any body know a mirror in canada that works all the time or one int he us that works all the time
[04:39] <RollyW> _jason are you sure it plays mp3?
[04:39] <Extreme_Unction> It does
[04:39] <Extreme_Unction> Having problems or something, RollyW?
[04:39] <Kr4t05> robertj: Package `doomlegacy' is not installed.
[04:39] <RollyW> yes, it doesnt want to open mp3, could be the file i suppose
[04:39] <IdleOne> !wine
[04:39] <RollyW> ill try a diff one
[04:39] <Extreme_Unction> What does it say?
[04:40] <Kr4t05> !tell RollyW about restriced formats
[04:40] <RollyW> some media could not be playable
[04:40] <Kr4t05> !tell RollyW about w32codecs
[04:40] <Kr4t05> Check that link.
[04:40] <robertj> Kr4t05, whatever it is called then
[04:40] <Extreme_Unction> Do you have gstreamer plugins and shit? :\
[04:41] <Extreme_Unction> sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.8-plugins
[04:41] <Extreme_Unction> (You need universe enabled)
[04:41] <_jason> RollyW: i'm using it right now :)
[04:41] <Extreme_Unction> If you use the gstreamer engine, anyway.
[04:41] <Kr4t05> robertj: Worked, now what?
[04:41] <_jason> !mp3
[04:41] <ubotu> it has been said that mp3 is a non-free format. To enable mp3 capability, read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[04:41] <Extreme_Unction> !sex
[04:41] <ubotu> Extreme_Unction: NO SPEAKE ENLISH! Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[04:41] <tritium> Extreme_Unction: don't do that!
[04:41] <robertj> Kr4t05, what commands did it list?
[04:42] <Extreme_Unction> Wikiscanner!
[04:42] <tritium> That's not an appropriate use of the bot
[04:42] <V4Vendetta> hm
[04:42] <Kr4t05> robertj: It said '/usr/bin'
[04:42] <RollyW> those plugins are all i need edtreme_unction?
[04:42] <RollyW> *extreme
[04:43] <Extreme_Unction> Yes
[04:43] <Kr4t05> Oh eff it.
[04:43] <Extreme_Unction> Well, if my diagnosis is correct.
[04:43] <Kr4t05> I can do it later.
[04:43] <V4Vendetta> what is a .cbr file?
[04:43] <wastrel> mmm.  /me turns off gnome's alt-f4 "close window" shortcut
[04:43] <Extreme_Unction> !cbr
[04:43] <ubotu> Some people juggle geese. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, Extreme_Unction
[04:43] <Kr4t05> Maybe if I compile from source, it will actually work.
[04:43] <Extreme_Unction> When all binary fail; compile from source!
[04:44] <ClayG> Hey gang, whats a good newsreader that sorts the messages in a threaded manner, something better than thunderbird? GUI please
[04:44] <robertj> dunno looks like you probably need a binary from another pkg
[04:44] <basbrya1> pine
[04:44] <yoyo> Toma-.... messing with iptables could work?
[04:44] <wastrel> ClayG:  pan
[04:44] <Plouj> grr
[04:44] <Toma-> yoyo, yeh, add some rules if it makes you happy
[04:44] <Kr4t05> Does XMMS support ShoutCast?
[04:44] <Plouj> I would like to run ubuntu!!
[04:44] <whyami> basbrya1: pine is a GUI? pine is better than thunderbird? You're pretty old-skool...
[04:45] <robertj> lxdoom works with freedoom's data so...dunno
[04:45] <Marsmensch> hi i wanna know the coretemp of my p4, where can i see it?
[04:45] <Kr4t05> !sensor
[04:45] <ubotu> [sensor]  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SensorInstallHowto
[04:45] <yoyo> so it's not something to be worried about Toma-
[04:45] <danc3> Plouj: so what's stopping you?
[04:45] <Toma-> pine isnt in ubuntu repos
[04:45] <Marsmensch> thx
[04:45] <ClayG> thanks wastrel anything else
[04:45] <RollyW> well, that was damn strange. still wont work in amarok, but will in totem
[04:45] <Plouj> danc3: http://plouj.no-ip.com/kubuntu3.jpg
[04:46] <basbrya1> pine is pine...  i make no other claims
[04:46] <endemic> Is there a good repository for more up-to-date software wlike Firefox 1.5 and such?
[04:46] <Plouj> can't boot into an installed system
[04:46] <Toma-> yoyo, not really. if youre concerned, run "who" when you think someone is connected and itll say whos connected
[04:46] <Extreme_Unction> endemic: I found it easier to scout for deb packages.
[04:46] <Kr4t05> !tell Marsmensch about sensor
[04:46] <endemic> Extreme_Unction: that was my backup plan :)
[04:46] <Extreme_Unction> Yeah
[04:46] <yoyo> gee.... just seeing that line in firestarte freaked me out Toma-
[04:46] <Extreme_Unction> just sudo dkpg -i it
[04:47] <danc3> Plouj: dunno, how'd you get it installed then?
[04:47] <Plouj> danc3: just booted the livecd
[04:47] <RollyW> Extreme_Unction: any idea why it would now work on totem, but not amerok?
[04:47] <Toma-> yoyo, :P
[04:47] <danc3> Plouj: booting a liveCD doesn't install anything
[04:47] <Extreme_Unction> Look in the options and make sure the sound engine is on Gstreamer and the output is alsasink
[04:48] <Plouj> danc3: erm, I meant the instller cd
[04:48] <Plouj> sorry
[04:48] <yoyo> ok thanks Toma-
[04:48] <Extreme_Unction> It's under the engine tab in configurations
[04:48] <Toma-> bbl.
[04:48] <danc3> Plouj: you must have screwed up something... looks like it can't find disk partition "sda7"
[04:49] <Plouj> but I have it
[04:49] <Suture> Is there any way at all to install ubuntu without a cd drive? i want to put it on my second hd
[04:49] <Plouj> I  can easily boot into Gentoo installed on the same system
[04:49] <nickrud> Plouj, does your grub menu.lst match those devices?
[04:49] <Plouj> here is my partition layout: http://paste.opsat.net/?/291/
[04:49] <Plouj> nickrud: I enter the grub commands by hand, for now
[04:49] <Plouj> untill it actually boots
[04:49] <elm0> anyone in here have experience with ettercap?
[04:50] <tritium> Plouj: did you actually try editing your /boot/grub/menu.lst?
[04:50] <Plouj> tritium: no, it would be a waste of time for me trying that and rebooting each time
[04:50] <Plouj> grub has tab completion
[04:50] <Plouj> I can't go wrong
[04:50] <Plouj> plus, I use /boot/grug/grub.conf
[04:50] <danc3> what?
[04:51] <Extreme_Unction> grug
[04:51] <Plouj> brbu
[04:51] <Plouj> doh!
[04:51] <tritium> Plouj: ubuntu uses /boot/grub/menu.lst
[04:51] <Plouj> I can never spell it
[04:51] <Plouj> tritium: I'm using grub installed on my gentoo system
[04:51] <danc3> that's probably why it won't boot
[04:51] <danc3> slow down a little
[04:51] <Plouj> not really
[04:51] <Plouj> it can boot
[04:51] <Plouj> you see the ubuntu kernel is booting
[04:52] <Plouj> its just panic-ing
[04:52] <danc3> you're not making much sense
[04:52] <navaneeth> how do you install "xpenguins" theme in ubuntu?
[04:52] <danc3> it can boot?
[04:52] <Plouj> ok,
[04:52] <wastrel> !enter
[04:52] <ubotu> please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and is annoying. Write in complete sentences and keep your replies and questions on one line if possible. Thanks!
[04:52] <Plouj> danc3: did you see this: http://plouj.no-ip.com/kubuntu3.jpg
[04:52] <danc3> Plouj: yes
[04:52] <Plouj> thats (k)ubuntu booting
[04:52] <RollyW> hmm, still not working with amarok
[04:53] <danc3> Plouj: so what do you mean by "it can boot"?
[04:53] <Suture> Is there any way at all to install ubuntu without a cd drive? i want to put it on my second hd
[04:53] <Kr4t05> Suture, doubt it.
[04:53] <Plouj> danc3: the kernel is being loaded into RAM
[04:53] <tritium> Plouj: you need to fix your grub config file, then
[04:53] <Plouj> and doing something
[04:53] <Extreme_Unction> Does anyone have a deb of Java 1.6.0 (Beta)
[04:53] <danc3> Plouj: do you see what tritium is saying??? Fix your GRUB menu
[04:53] <tritium> Extreme_Unction: we can't distribute java .debs here
[04:53] <varsendagger> Suture, yeah check out hte wiki install files it is there go to !wiki
[04:53] <danc3> jeez
[04:53] <Plouj> tritium: http://plouj.no-ip.com/kubuntu2.jpg this is how I boot
[04:54] <varsendagger> !wiki
[04:54] <Kr4t05> Extreme_Unction: Bittorrent. ;D
[04:54] <danc3> Plouj: don't post any more until you fix that grub setup
[04:54] <syllogism> Could someone direct me to a channel where I could ask financial questions?
[04:54] <varsendagger> !wiki install
[04:54] <danc3> if you don't want to listen to how to fix it, don't ask
[04:54] <Plouj> I'm showing you my grub setup!
[04:54] <Plouj> grub setup-> http://plouj.no-ip.com/kubuntu2.jpg
[04:54] <Plouj> I showed you my partitions setup earlier
[04:54] <Plouj> it all matches
[04:54] <intelikey> he's back !
[04:54] <danc3> Plouj: I'm done trying to help you, if you don't want to listen
[04:55] <jeeves_moss> all:  any one here know how to bridge a WiFi connection to the LAN?
[04:55] <Plouj> danc3: don't you understand that you are telling me to do something I can't?
[04:55] <tritium> Plouj: look at your error.  There is a problem with your "root=..."
[04:55] <elm0> anyone here know how to use ettercap?
[04:55] <Plouj> tritium: I saw that
[04:55] <danc3> but you ignored it
[04:55] <Plouj> tritium: I don't know whats wrong with it
[04:55] <jeeves_moss> all:  hello?
[04:55] <Plouj> I installed ubuntu on /dev/sda7
[04:55] <danc3> "I saw that, but I am not going to take your advice and fix it"
[04:55] <varsendagger> Suture, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Installation/FromWindows?highlight=%28installation%29
[04:55] <tritium> Plouj: try a proper install
[04:56] <Plouj> tritium: what do you mean by that?
[04:56] <danc3> I can't take it any more.
[04:56] <Plouj> danc3: thats not what I'm saying.
[04:56] <tritium> Plouj: fully install ubuntu, including grub (not gentoo's grub)
[04:56] <Plouj> erm
[04:56] <Plouj> I don't want to loose my grub
[04:56] <intelikey> Plouj what error ?   i just got here.
[04:56] <nickrud> Plouj: as a last resort, try sudo update-grub, and reboot. It can't hurt.
[04:56] <jeeves_moss> tritium:  do you know how to do the bridging I need to do?
[04:57] <tritium> jeeves_moss: no, sorry
[04:57] <Plouj> intelikey: http://plouj.no-ip.com/kubuntu3.jpg
[04:57] <drip6> haha, just did some updates for dapper and when I logged back in I got"this is not the final artwork!"
[04:57] <Plouj> but thats not the WHOLE story
[04:57] <jeeves_moss> tritium:  ok, thanks.  I know how to do it in windoz, but I want the speed of Linux
[04:57] <KonphuzeD> uhm this sucks i cant get seveas repository working and two or three other repos timeouts are screwing  me up.... can anybody show me a sources.list file that works with seveas all and univers all
[04:57] <abes> hey can somebody help with sharing the folders with WinXP box?
[04:57] <RollyW> w00t. Everytime i get a new APP working on ubuntu, its as satisfying as a month of piracy on windows
[04:57] <intelikey> jpg Plouj ?   that's a pivture ?    sorry dude, no gui on this box.
[04:57] <varsendagger> Suture, are you using windows
[04:57] <Plouj> incorrect "root=" is a misleading error
[04:57] <Plouj> :/
[04:57] <tritium> how sad for you, RollyW
[04:57] <V4Vendetta> RollyW~ lol
[04:57] <KonphuzeD> ive changed the repository several times now
[04:58] <Suture> varsendagger, yeah
[04:58] <KonphuzeD> to other servers off the list
[04:58] <Extreme_Unction> Bah!
[04:58] <RollyW> lol, hey, nothing wrong with being psyhed to learn, is there?
[04:58] <tritium> pirating is offtopic
[04:58] <RollyW> *psyched
[04:58] <Extreme_Unction> Does anyone know where I can get Java Package?
[04:58] <Plouj> did you guys ever consider that maybe my root= option is right
[04:58] <V4Vendetta> !java
[04:58] <ubotu> To install Java/Sun Java see Java on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats and also see !javadebs
[04:58] <Plouj> and something else is wrong?
[04:58] <Spec> Is there any ubuntu-specific documentation for installing Ubuntu on a USB harddrive?
[04:58] <Suture> varsendagger, I tried using the hd-media stuff but it can't find the iso i have on my hd
[04:59] <tritium> Plouj: we're not here to support gentoo
[04:59] <abes> I shared the folder on Ubuntu thru samba. When Im trying to connect to it from XPbox it asks me about the user and pass - i input that but it keeps on asking over and over
[04:59] <Plouj> tritium: this is not about gentoo
[04:59] <abes> I can access XP shared off Ubuntu
[04:59] <tritium> Plouj: yes it is, since you're using gentoo's grub, and that is where your problems lie
[04:59] <Plouj> how can you be so sure?
[04:59] <Plouj> it boots windows
[04:59] <bimberi> abes: did you set up the samba password 'sudo smbpasswd -a <yourusername>'
[05:00] <abes> bimberi: I did
[05:00] <varsendagger> Suture, i don't know
[05:00] <intelikey> Plouj if you'd like me to try to help you with this,  please pastebin  the output of    'sudo fdisk -l ;cat /boot/grub/menu.lst ;cat /etc/fstab `   or at least the pertanant parts thereof.

[05:01] <Kr4t05> sorry.
[05:02] <tritium> no problem

[05:04] <Plouj> intelikey: ya, thats the gentoo fstab
[05:04] <abes> bimberi: both Ubuntu and XP are hooked up to DHCP
[05:04] <tritium> No, RollyW.
[05:04] <RollyW> :(
[05:05] <Plouj> intelikey: actually, I can paste the ubuntu one, hang on
[05:05] <dlowell> can anyone help me with my printer not working?
[05:05] <crxyem> issue, I'm wireless, during boot-up, fstab gets processed and my network connection isn't 100% up and running so smbfs shares fail
[05:05] <avu> Plouj, you are missing the initrd?
[05:05] <Plouj> the installer just told me to use that
[05:05] <abes> RollyW: GIMP :P
[05:05] <Plouj> nothing about initrd
[05:05] <dli> http://help.ubuntu.com/starterguide/C/index.html
[05:05] <Plouj> avu: http://plouj.no-ip.com/kubuntu1.jpg
[05:05] <bimberi> abes: ok, i don't think that would mean that the hostname would work - but anyway it should work with the IP - i'm not sure what's wrong sorry
[05:06] <avu> Plouj, well, on my ubuntu system, the initrd holds the driver needed to access my root file system, which would explain your error
[05:06] <intelikey> Plouj you must use an initrd in ubuntu or compile a kernel with ext fs support.
[05:06] <tritium> !tell dli about install
[05:06] <dlowell> can anyone help me with my printer not working?
[05:06] <Plouj> avu: how would I use it?
[05:06] <Netslayer> ok i've searched the forums and can't figure out how to update to dapper..you just flip the string in a file somewhere ... help?
[05:06] <bimberi> !upgrade
[05:06] <ubotu> Upgrading to Ubuntu 5.10 -> http://wiki.ubuntu.com/BreezyUpgrade. Upgrading to dapper Please test the dist-upgrader -> https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2006-January/014700.html
[05:06] <abes> bimberi: well... the issue seems to be that I cant log into Ubuntu shared folder from XP...
[05:06] <dli> tritium, thanks, the starterguide doesn't include installation :(
[05:06] <avu> Plouj, since you choose the hard way, you should know how to configure grub to use ubuntus initrd, right? ;)
[05:06] <intelikey> initrd=/boot/<ubuntus_initrd.img>
[05:06] <amin_> in my GRUB loader of OS, Ubuntu is on default for loading. How to i change the default loader of GRUB and switch it with other ?
[05:06] <tritium> dli: good luck :)
[05:07] <intelikey> Plouj ^
[05:07] <Plouj> avu: I've never used an initrd!
[05:07] <Plouj> so, not really
[05:07] <abes> bimberi: so im starting to question the config file....
[05:07] <Plouj> err, where would I find ubuntu's menu.lst?
[05:07] <intelikey> initrd=/boot/<ubuntus_initrd.img>   <-- Plouj add that to the boot line.
[05:07] <abes> bimberi: because maybe something is messed up there... do you mind taking a look at it>
[05:07] <bimberi> abes: could be, althought i have it working with the default
[05:07] <tritium> Plouj: /boot/grub
[05:07] <Plouj> it didn't install a /boot/grub
[05:07] <Plouj> at all
[05:08] <tritium> !enter
[05:08] <ubotu> please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and is annoying. Write in complete sentences and keep your replies and questions on one line if possible. Thanks!
[05:08] <bimberi> abes: sure, put it on the pastebin - warning i'm no expert on this :)
[05:08] <abes> bimberi: but you applied the changes to like "security = user" "netbios name = laptop" etc.?
[05:08] <Plouj> tritium: and if I forgot to add a thought, it should get lost in space then?
[05:08] <intelikey> Plouj just add the initrd to the boot line.
[05:08] <tritium> Plouj: you've done it regularly
[05:08] <Plouj> intelikey: just "initrd"?
[05:08] <intelikey> initrd=/boot/<ubuntus_initrd.img>   <-- Plouj add that to the boot line.
[05:08] <avu> Plouj, just think a bit longer before pressing enter ;P
[05:08] <RollyW> does ubuntu support dual desktop?
[05:08] <Plouj> tritium: I'm being bombarded by text, my brain is too slow, sorry
[05:08] <bimberi> abes: nope, i only used the Gnome Shared Folders applet
[05:08] <dlowell> I HAVE A HP Laserjet 4 PLUS AND IT IS NOT WORKING, I TRIED RUNNING IT POSTSCRIPT, BUT IT DIDN'T WORK, ITS A PARALLELL PORT, PLEASE HELP!!!!
[05:09] <akant> like dual monitors?
[05:09] <akant> I have wondered this too
[05:09] <RollyW> yes, but not just the same screen repeated
[05:09] <abes> bimberi: does it mean you didnt use samba?
[05:09] <tritium> Plouj: it's okay, buddy :)
[05:09] <Plouj> http://paste.opsat.net/?/295/ I assume because I chose not to install grub/lilo
[05:09] <newubuntuman> hey, how do i get my ltmodem to work?
[05:09] <Extreme_Unction> Also, does anyone know a repository that carries the java-package package?
[05:09] <tritium> dlowell: all-caps is a good way to get ignored
[05:09] <bimberi> abes: no i used samba, it's offered as an option when you first use that applet.
[05:09] <tritium> it's in multiverse, as I showed you, Extreme_Unction
[05:09] <Plouj> what I'm saying is, there is no /boot/grub
[05:10] <abes> oh yeah
[05:10] <dlowell> sorry
[05:10] <avu> Plouj, since you are planing to use the gentoo grub anyway, this shouldn pose a problem?
[05:10] <abes> bimberi: true... but you still need to install samba... and I guess configure it - right?
[05:10] <Extreme_Unction> E: Couldn't find package java-package
[05:10] <tritium> !info java-package
[05:10] <Extreme_Unction> Multiverse is in my repo. list
[05:10] <ubotu> java-package: (utility for building Java(TM) 2 related Debian packages), section multiverse/misc, is optional. Version: 0.26 (breezy), Packaged size: 20 kB, Installed size: 308 kB
[05:10] <Plouj> avu: well, it is
[05:10] <crxyem> looking for some help with samba
[05:10] <crxyem> plz
[05:10] <tritium> Extreme_Unction: did you apt-get update first?
[05:10] <avu> Plouj, why?
[05:10] <abes> crxyem: me too :P
[05:11] <Extreme_Unction> Yes
[05:11] <bimberi> abes: yep, the applet even did the install (a nice bit of work by it's developer i must say)
[05:11] <abes> crxyem: what problem do you have?
[05:11] <Extreme_Unction> I'll do it again.
[05:11] <Plouj> avu: simply because this problem exists
[05:11] <Plouj> thats why its a problem!
[05:11] <abes> bimberi: cant argue that... but did u configure anything later on?
[05:11] <Plouj> I dunno what to say!
[05:11] <RollyW> *reitterates question about dual monitors*
[05:11] <Extreme_Unction> Still not getting it.
[05:11] <newubuntuman> ranyone know how to get my modem to work it's an ltmodem, ubuntu sees my modem
[05:11] <intelikey> Plouj there should be a symlink in the root / of the ubuntu install to the initrd and the kernel.   if not they should both be in the /boot  of the ubuntu install.
[05:11] <Plouj> I'll be back
[05:11] <avu> Plouj, you want to use the gentoo grub, right? which is configured via the gentoo menu.lst, right?
[05:12] <Jeff12088> Hi
[05:12] <bimberi> abes: not really, just added an entry to the Domain / Workgroup field in the "General WIndows sharing settings" available via that applet
[05:12] <crxyem> I'm trying to do this in fstab , //YEM-SERVER/Storage /home/Storage smbfs credentials=/root/.smbcredentials,dmask=777,fmask=777 0 0 ,but it fails
[05:12] <Angel_Dex> has anyon e gotten Diablo 2 to run on wine?
[05:12] <crxyem> works when I type sudo mount -a tho
[05:13] <bimberi> abes: in a terminal do a 'sudo netstat -plunt' and make sure that smbd is listening (ports 139 & 445)
[05:13] <crxyem> I'm thinking that during the boot proccess fstab gets proccessed before my network connection is up and running
[05:13] <dlowell> if anyone could help me with a HP Laserjet 4 Plus printer in ubuntu linux 5.10 that would be great, thanks
[05:14] <lucis> Hi. I am trying to set up my Lexmark Z35 printer, but alas, all of the Z printers are in the Lexmark list *except* for the one I have. Any ideas?
[05:14] <khafra> I followed the directions for making a 32 bit chroot in a 64 bit Ubuntu, and got this error: http://pastebin.ca/44159
[05:14] <Dr_Willis> dlowell,  it should work fine. my 6L works great
[05:15] <intelikey> that reminds me.   what could be putting my printer on pause ?
[05:15] <intelikey> cups actually
[05:16] <intelikey> what can pause cups ?
[05:16] <crxyem> so abes : any ideas on my issue
[05:17] <abes> bimberi: ok... I changed "security = user" to "security = share" and it worked
[05:17] <abes> crxyem: hmm... not really... i have ubuntu for like 2 days so I am a noob still :P
[05:17] <abes> bimberi: ill leave it like that and thats it
[05:18] <abes> bimberi: thanks for help anyway... take care
[05:18] <frank23> lucis: I tried to setup a lexmark z33 with no luck
[05:18] <crxyem> ah I see
[05:18] <MrPockets> my "Music Player" wont play any radio stations, and freezes when i try to. what to do?
[05:18] <dlowell> i tried to setup a HP Laserjet 4 plus with no luck
[05:18] <spuck> hello. I tried this on #bittorrent, but no one there...  I have been downloading Ubuntu iso, but upload speed is mostly 0 (I wanna help out).  Is this possibly from my firewall (Shorewall on a Gentoo), and if so, what do I do to fix?
[05:19] <crxyem> abes: , what problem are you having ??
[05:19] <tritium> dlowell: was it plugged in and turned on when you booted?  If not, plug it in, turn it on, and run "sudo invoke-rc.d cupsys restart"
[05:19] <dlowell> ok thanks
[05:19] <bimberi> abes: ok, np :)
[05:19] <Extreme_Unction> tritium: I got Java-Package from the debian woody repositories..
[05:19] <tritium> dlowell: cups has to detect it when its init scripts are run
[05:20] <tritium> Extreme_Unction: I would have gotten it from multiverse instead
[05:20] <Rob_Dude> When I do 'sudo apt-get install libdivx4linux' it says it can't be found....am I doing something wrong?
[05:20] <Extreme_Unction> ...
[05:20] <Extreme_Unction> My apt-get is racist towards multiverse.
[05:20] <dlowell> k
[05:20] <AngryElf> hey all, i'm trying to find a way to disable the screen saver while a particular app is running and then reenable it when the app is closed
[05:20] <AngryElf> any ideas?
[05:21] <frank23> Extreme_Unction: getting packages from debian is generally not a good idea
[05:21] <bimberi> Rob_Dude: i don't see such a package - have you checked it exists - http://packages.ubuntu.com
[05:21] <bimberi> ?
[05:21] <spuck> Extreme_Unction: you uncommented multiverse servers?  (sorry if I sound dumb, Ubuntu is 3 days new to me)
[05:21] <Extreme_Unction> Yes
[05:22] <Extreme_Unction> It has every package I could imagine there is, besides Java-Package which should be there.
[05:22] <ignasoft> how do i set proxy settings in synaptic?
[05:22] <darthbutcher> Hey.
[05:22] <frank23> Extreme_Unction: I see java-package in multiverse
[05:22] <darthbutcher> How do I CHMod a folder?
[05:22] <darthbutcher> I want to install a new theme in Amarok.
[05:22] <spuck> Extreme_Unction: sorry, I'm out, I'm too new here (Gentoo for many years - I still try emerging on my laptop...)
[05:23] <intelikey> darthbutcher "how do i chmod a folder" hehhe.   chmod /folder/
[05:23] <CaptainMorgan> hey
[05:24] <bimberi> ignasoft: you set up the http_proxy environment variable (you can add it to /etc/environment to make it permanent) - http_proxy=http://username:password@address.of.proxy:port
[05:24] <spuck> darthbutcher: "chmod 777 folder" will get all permissions - sometimes helpful when debugging
[05:24] <Angel_Dex> has anyon e gotten Diablo 2 to run on wine?
[05:24] <ignasoft> k thanks
[05:25] <Rob_Dude> bimberi:  I was following the directions in http://www.ubuntuguide.org/#codecs
[05:25] <unix_infidel> is there an ubuntu net install?
[05:25] <intelikey> darthbutcher if you know binary system  read write execute 111 = 7        owner group world   111 111 111 = 777
[05:25] <bimberi> ubotu tell Rob_Dude about ubuntuguide
[05:25] <spuck> darthbutcher: oh, and that can be a security risk, reduce permissions when you figure out what works
[05:25] <darthbutcher> Thanks.
[05:25] <darthbutcher> :-D
[05:25] <frank23> Rob_Dude: that guide was never really good and is BADLY out of date
[05:25] <Plouj> this didn't help me: http://paste.opsat.net/?/296/
[05:25] <darthbutcher> It worked.
[05:26] <spuck> intelikey: octal
[05:26] <lsbalaji> hi
[05:26] <lsbalaji> hi
[05:26] <intelikey> spuck no bin
[05:26] <unix_infidel> anyone, does ubuntu have a netinstall iso available?
[05:27] <bimberi> unix_infidel: there are some 'Advanced Install Methods' described via http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Installation
[05:27] <darthbutcher> I now feel like a moron!
[05:27] <darthbutcher> I can install amaroK themes in amarok itself.
[05:27] <darthbutcher> Don't need to extract it myself.
[05:27] <darthbutcher> :-P
[05:27] <unix_infidel> uh oh, "ubuntu advanced install methods"
[05:27] <unix_infidel> that's surry.
[05:27] <spuck> intelkey: the number format is octal (3 bits per digit, rolls over at 8)
[05:27] <unix_infidel> scurry*
[05:27] <Rob_Dude> Ahh, I gotcha
[05:27] <endemic> Is there an easy quick fix to disable the system bell when I dont want it. I just install ubuntu on my laptop and it'd be rather annoying to have my system bell go off if I was in a meeting :)
[05:27] <Kr4t05> ...
[05:28] <Kr4t05> I got Doom Legacy to work.
[05:28] <Kr4t05> But

[05:28] <Angel_Dex> same!
[05:28] <Angel_Dex> i got that same error
[05:28] <Angel_Dex> <.<
[05:28] <Kr4t05> Hold on.
[05:28] <Extreme_Unction> Does anyone know where I can pick up a deb package of Java 1.6.0 beta
[05:28] <bimberi> unix_infidel: that's just the heading, could be quite straightforward :)
[05:28] <intelikey> 3 bits per digit.....   yes  3 binary digits.   like i said  but that's off topic.
[05:29] <unix_infidel> bimberi: that was SARCASM.
[05:29] <dlowell> can anyoen help me with my HP Laserjet 4 Plus printer not working on ubuntu 5.10, its in a parallel port and, i turned it on before i booted up and i ran "sudo invoke-rc.d cupsys restart" and that still didn't work, any ideas??
[05:29] <unix_infidel> ubuntu and "advanced installation" is sorta an oxymoron considering...
[05:29] <unix_infidel> anyone ever done a server install?
[05:29] <bimberi> unix_infidel: ... which doesn't transmit well in text i'm afraid
[05:29] <unix_infidel> what packages are installed?
[05:30] <La_PaRCa> unix_infidel, all the dependencies for ubuntu-server
[05:30] <intelikey> unix_infidel base system    no X
[05:30] <La_PaRCa> ubuntu-server is the metapackage for the server install
[05:30] <spuck> intelikey: sorry about this more off topic, but 4 binary digits is still represented in hex, 3 in octal, 1 in binary - it's all about the final representation.
[05:30] <unix_infidel> La_PaRCa: sure, where's the list of all deps for that metapackage
[05:31] <spuck> intelikey: hey, let's just be friends.
[05:31] <intelikey> best thing youve said ye.
[05:31] <intelikey> yet

[05:38] <Amaranth> jetscreamer: I never said I deleted that one.
[05:38] <jetscreamer> ah good point
[05:38] <shiv> sorry i am a windows slave :(
[05:38] <jetscreamer> sorry
[05:38] <IdleOne> !tekk shiv about paste
[05:38] <ubotu> NO SPEAKE ENLISH! Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, IdleOne
[05:38] <Plouj> intelikey: o_O, ok, so I change the wiki page so that other people don't get confused?
[05:38] <IdleOne> !tell shiv about paste
[05:38] <ubotu> Ubuntu Package/File/Desc Search of 'libsdl1.5debian-alsa' returned no results.
 quake4 bork is probably for quake4(and d3 i'd guess)  libsdl1.2debian-all_1.2.9-0.1_i386.deb vs libsdl1.2debian-alsa_1.2.9-0.1_i386.deb  . all bad, alsa good. see updated versions also.
[05:39] <jetscreamer> in debian-bots, ! speaks to many bots :o
[05:39] <intelikey> plouj maybe change it to indicate that they must translate <kernel-package>   to the propper name
[05:39] <Plouj> intelikey: somehow, apt-get install linux doesn't put anything into /usr/src/
[05:40] <jetscreamer> !find linux-source
[05:40] <ubotu> Ubuntu Package Listing of 'linux-source' (2 shown): linux-source-2.6.12 ;; linux-source-2.6.12.
[05:40] <jetscreamer> try the right one
[05:40] <intelikey> Plouj learn  "apt-cache search linux "
[05:40] <jetscreamer> see also linux-headers
[05:40] <Plouj> apt-cache search linux-source shows nothing
[05:40] <jetscreamer> heh
[05:40] <jetscreamer> i just made the bot spell it out for you
[05:40] <Plouj> E: Couldn't find package linux-source-2.6.12
[05:41] <NickGarvey> Plouj: do you have internet?
[05:41] <jetscreamer> heh
[05:41] <Plouj> no
[05:41] <jetscreamer> ahhhh
[05:41] <Plouj> I use beavers for communication
[05:41] <IdleOne> hahaha

[05:41] <Plouj> I have already apt-get updated a few tiles
[05:41] <Plouj> times*
[05:41] <jetscreamer> shiv it they're not already in #flood it won't do any good... try a pastebin, /msg ubotu past
[05:41] <jetscreamer> e
[05:41] <dlowell> Dr_Willis it shows lp0: using parport0 (interrupt-driven).
[05:42] <Amyn> how can i change the host myname@hostname 'hostname' ?
[05:42] <dlowell> and parport0: Legacy device
[05:42] <Amaranth> Amyn: hostname
[05:42] <jetscreamer> Plouj: try apt-cache search linux-source, then try kernel-source.. and do you want the source or the headers
[05:42] <Amaranth> Amyn: :)
[05:42] <jetscreamer> aka do you want to compile a kernel?
[05:42] <Plouj> jetscreamer: I said, apt-cache search linux-source returns nothing
[05:42] <Plouj> I get a few results for headers
[05:43] <Plouj> jetscreamer: yes, essentially
[05:43] <Aine> Hello everyone. Before I try the fakeRAID setup for Ubuntu, is there a switch I can use on the installer CD to recognize I'm using SATA instead of just hitting enter?
[05:43] <blocky> is this the channel for all ubuntu?
[05:43] <dlowell> yes
[05:43] <NickGarvey> pretty much..
[05:44] <IdleOne> linux-patch-ubuntu-2.6.12 - Ubuntu patches to Linux 2.6.12
[05:44] <IdleOne> linux-source-2.6.12 - Linux kernel source for version 2.6.12 with Ubuntu patches
[05:44] <blocky> why is wget/apt-get downloading really slowly
[05:44] <NickGarvey> Plouj: when I did the same linux-source-2.6.12 - Linux kernel source for version 2.6.12 with Ubuntu patches
[05:44] <NickGarvey> oh haha
[05:44] <blocky> when the rest of my network works fine
[05:44] <concept10> blocky, all ubuntu all the time
[05:44] <blocky> is the mirror just being slow?
[05:44] <Plouj> ...
[05:44] <intelikey> Aine use the function keys to read the boot help pages    [f1] 
[05:44] <Plouj> I dunno
[05:44] <shiv> nick plz help..
[05:44] <blocky> how do I install libdvdcss2 in dapper
[05:44] <Plouj> I don't see those packages
[05:44] <NickGarvey> blocker, #ubuntu+1
[05:44] <Plouj> nor do they want to be installed
[05:44] <IdleOne>  go to #ubuntu+1 for Dapper help :-)
[05:45] <NickGarvey> read the title blocky :P
[05:45] <Plouj> k
[05:45] <bimberi> blocky: hah, all ubuntu except dapper :P - #ubuntu+1
[05:45] <jetscreamer> Plouj: check your sources.list, and maybe apt-get update again.. sudo eh
[05:45] <Aine> Intelikey: I breifly checked that out before having to head out. Is there a specific menu that you know off head that I'd want to pick?
[05:45] <blocky> =P
[05:45] <Plouj> jetscreamer: what do I check the sources for?
[05:45] <intelikey> Aine no.  sorry
[05:45] <dlowell> hp laserjet 4 plus printer not working
[05:45] <jetscreamer> Plouj: ping em maybe, see if your list got trashed somehow?
[05:45] <dlowell> help!
[05:45] <Aine> Intelikey: No problem, wanted to check before I took the drive back home to check :D
[05:45] <jetscreamer> either/or
[05:45] <intelikey> [f5]    maybe
[05:46] <sethk> dlowell, that's generally a very easy printer
[05:46] <dlowell> well its not working
[05:46] <dlowell> i tried using postscript
[05:46] <dlowell> and i know its not the printer cuz it runs under windows
[05:46] <jetscreamer> heh
[05:46] <Crshman> i have a great deal of RX packet errors on my laptops wireless, 4 times the amount of actual packets....any ideas as to why?
[05:47] <Crshman> i have moved my AP, and also changed the channel....
[05:48] <Dr_Willis> dlowell,  its possible the printer port/parrell port is not configured. You should just be able to select "hp/laserjet 4l" in the configs.
[05:49] <jamie> Hey, is there a howto on upgrading the kernel in breezy?
[05:49] <dlowell> how do i do that?
[05:49] <IdleOne> jamie:  sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[05:49] <bimberi> jamie: or do you mean compiling your own?
[05:50] <IdleOne> if you mean compiling talk to bimberi  ;)
[05:50] <jamie> I wanted to upgrade to dapper's kernel so I could use my SD reader.
[05:50] <bimberi> who will refer you to the wiki :P
[05:50] <jamie> I can do a compile, I come from gentoo and linux from scratch.
[05:50] <IdleOne> heh
[05:50] <jamie> Afraid of breaking breezy. lol
[05:50] <crxyem> hello
[05:50] <IdleOne> !tell jamie about flight4
[05:51] <bimberi> jamie: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCompileHowto :)
[05:51] <crxyem> so anyone know howto get the Fn key on a Dell to work ??
[05:52] <intelikey> hehhe :}
[05:52] <dli> does preparing xfonts space take long? it looks crashed
[05:52] <intelikey> oh sorry.   i never saw a box that the f keys didn't work on
[05:52] <dlowell> i give up
[05:53] <jamie> I would love to use dapper, but ATI doesn't support Xorg 7 and I couldn't get it to downgrade to 6.9
[05:53] <damo21> hi i am about to buy a laptop.... what should i take on 1 cd to test it?  does the ubuntu live cd have a memtest?
[05:53] <NickGarvey> UBCD has several mem tests
[05:53] <jamie> Dell laptops work great with Linux, in my option.
[05:53] <BioSnorE> rgr that
[05:53] <NickGarvey> http://www.ultimatebootcd.com/
[05:53] <BioSnorE> jamie: ACPI is sometimes goofy though
[05:53] <NickGarvey> my hp laptop does NOT get along with linux
[05:54] <intelikey> damo21 knoppix
[05:54] <damo21> yes i won a bid for a dell d600 for au$600
[05:54] <damo21> :)
[05:54] <NickGarvey> nice
[05:54] <jamie> Sweet!
[05:54] <krystoff> hi there please where can i find the latest sources.list ?
[05:54] <crxyem> not like f1 etc, I'm talking the blue Fn key
[05:54] <damo21> and i get to chose which one, they have a whole pile
[05:54] <bimberi> !sources
[05:54] <ubotu> To enable Universe and Multiverse see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/AddingRepositoriesHowto - Official sources.lists here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6047 (Breezy) or http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6666 (Dapper) see also !easysource

[05:54] <dooglus> is there a versioned filesystem for ubuntu?
[05:54] <krystoff> ok thanks :)
[05:54] <jetscreamer> ubotu: what?
[05:54] <ubotu> What what, jetscreamer?
[05:55] <Extreme_Unction> Does anyone know where I can pick up a deb package of Java 1.6.0 beta
[05:55] <jetscreamer> !botsnack
[05:55] <ubotu> :)
[05:55] <IdleOne> bimberi:  1 point for you ^
[05:55] <shiv>  Couldn't find package rcconf which repos should I use. I just did a fresh install from DVD
[05:55] <AngryElf> hey all, i just built a new kernel, and i'm trying to setup the entry for it in /boot/grub/menu.lst however I don't know what to put in for the initrd field.............all the other kernels on my system have a cooresponding inird.... file, however i can't find one that is associated with the kernel I built.....what am i suppose to put there?
[05:55] <jamie> Synaptic.
[05:55] <bimberi> :)
[05:55] <jamie> Er...
[05:55] <jamie> Automatix.
[05:55] <IdleOne> !automatix
[05:55] <ubotu> Automatix is unsafe, it overwrites configuration files, and does things like "echo -e 'ynYn'" that are considered risky. Please do not use it. There are alternative applications, but it's often best to read the documentation.
[05:56] <Extreme_Unction> lol
[05:56] <jetscreamer> AngryElf: did you use make-kpkg? and if so did you supply the --initrd directive? and if not, did you compile needed items into the kernel, not as modules?
[05:56] <jamie> I've never had a problem out of it.
[05:56] <intelikey> AngryElf mkinitrd
[05:56] <bimberi> damo21: ubuntu live does have memtest ('memtest' at the boot prompt)
[05:56] <jetscreamer> if yes, no, yes, then don't worry about it
[05:56] <IdleOne> !tell shiv about repos
[05:56] <HammerBlade2020> can somone please help me with a problem, my computer keeps freezing.
[05:57] <jamie> First Automatix made a "Backdoor" now it's unsafe bacause it answers questions for you?
[05:57] <jetscreamer> check the cpu temp?
[05:57] <Syns> bittorrent sucks
[05:57] <intelikey> AngryElf you have to build one if you want to use one.   but if you compile a kernel why not add fs support and not use an initrd ?
[05:57] <damo21> hmm ok, i just want to know if this laptop has svga+ or just xga, plus do a memtest, before i buy it
[05:57] <jamie> Memtest is good for checking ram errors.
[05:57] <dli> HammerBlade2020, or run memtest86
[05:57] <damo21> sxga+ sorry
[05:57] <farous> hi just wondering anyone can listen to live365. or is it just me who have this problem
[05:57] <jamie> No use in doing it on a new laptop.
[05:57] <HammerBlade2020> dli~ i'm pretty sure it's a hard-drive problem
[05:57] <abes> hello everyone, I was just wondering what is the good editor for Java for Ubuntu and what is required in order to program in Java on Ubuntu?
[05:58] <damo21> jamie: this is second hand not new dude
[05:58] <dli> HammerBlade2020, hdd shouldn't induce system hang usually, induces I/O errors
[05:58] <AngryElf> yea, that's mostly confusing to me, i just followed the README that came with it, and it mentions nothing about initrd
[05:58] <farous> abes eclipse check it out
[05:58] <jamie> Ahh. Cool. :D
[05:58] <jamie> Miss read, sorry friend!
[05:58] <HammerBlade2020> dli~ well weird thing is, my whole desktop will lock up but if i'm on skype it will keep working
[05:58] <Marsmensch> is there a posibility to uninstall all packages which were installed today
[05:58] <Rob_Dude> Bah
[05:58] <Rob_Dude> This is hard
[05:58] <HammerBlade2020> dli~ but the hd-access light will go solid
[05:59] <Rob_Dude> Is there a cool easy way to search downloads in the repository?
[05:59] <jamie> I tell ya what, anyone know how to get the SD card reader on a Dell Inspriron 6000 working?
[05:59] <abes> farous: i have a problem with installing it... it says that it cant be installed
[05:59] <dli> HammerBlade2020, X freezes
[05:59] <farous> !tell abes about repos
[05:59] <NickGarvey> !mail
[05:59] <ubotu> mail is, like, another medium to communicate. Ubuntu mailinglists can be found at http://lists.ubuntu.com/
[05:59] <farous> abes you need to enable some extra repos
[06:00] <HammerBlade2020> dli~ yea i guess so, but i have like ATA errors in system log
[06:00] <etsb> can some one help me set up a file server for an office ?
[06:00] <HammerBlade2020> how do i see if it's X for sure?
[06:00] <abes> farous, which repos in particular... and how do you do that? via synaptic?
[06:00] <HammerBlade2020> dli~ one other thing though.. azureus will pop-up and say my HD is a read-only file-system and if i'm downloading something it will fail to write it to disk
[06:00] <farous> abes am not sure but i think it is in seveas
[06:00] <farous> !eclipse
[06:00] <ubotu> to install eclipse please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EclipseIDE
[06:00] <farous> ^   ^
[06:00] <AngryElf> intelikey, i presume I'd need an initrd.img file because all the precompiled kernels i was already using have one too?
[06:01] <farous> ok can anyone connect to www.live365.com
[06:01] <damo21> inspirons r ghey, too fat n chunky, im getting me a latitude for $600
[06:01] <damo21> :D
[06:01] <wastrel> ...
[06:01] <concept10> farous, I can.. but I use streamtuner instead
[06:01] <Achew22> on the ubuntu startup graphic where does it get its configuration information?
[06:02] <farous> concept10: can you connect to them now. I think my ISP blocked it
[06:02] <damo21> can someone tell me whats the quickest way to test the max res on a laptop,
[06:02] <intelikey> AngryElf i never use an initrd except with the 'factory' ubuntu kernel which has no ext2 fs support  well no fs support other than cram i think.     but if you want to use an initrd just   man mkinitrd     and make one.
[06:02] <abes> farous: eclipse-jdt: Depends: eclipse-platform (= 3.1.1-1ubuntu3) but it is not going to be installed
[06:03] <Achew22> damo21 go to your xorg config file and run the dpkg command at the top
[06:03] <abes> farous, Depends: junit (>= 3.8) but it is not installable
[06:03] <Achew22> i'll look it up one sec
[06:03] <HammerBlade2020> dli~ ?
[06:03] <abes> farous, Depends: ant (>= 1.6.5) but it is not installable
[06:03] <concept10> farous, I can connect, but I dont think its firefox compatible
[06:03] <farous> abes so you need to enable some extra repos
[06:03] <etsb> why cant i get auto update?
[06:03] <abes> farous, how do you do that?
[06:03] <etsb> always showing error
[06:03] <concept10> farous, you dont know about streamtuner?
[06:03] <abes> farous, synaptic?
[06:03] <farous> concept10: i have streamtuner here i can not even ping it but thanx
[06:03] <damo21> achew22 : i mean, without booting a full system, just a nasty boot hack or something to test the max res
[06:03] <dous> hi room, where should I put wins.dat (WINS support in SAMBA) in breezy?
[06:03] <Achew22> ohh -- i dont know
[06:04] <concept10> farous, let me try
[06:04] <Achew22> I try to avoid nasty
[06:04] <dli> what packages are available in the ubuntu cd?
[06:04] <Achew22> what is the startup spashscreen called?
[06:04] <yuna> fggggggggggggggg
[06:04] <damo21> does the livecd always use the max res of the monitor?
[06:04] <ssstormy> kino is really not liking me
[06:04] <Achew22> damo21 thats a good bet
[06:04] <ssstormy> how would and to what format would I convert the video to be used in kino?
[06:05] <Achew22> damo21 and if it doesn't try to set it higher
[06:05] <ssstormy> (I'm not importing off a camera, but out of x264 and xvid files)
[06:05] <bimberi> Achew22: maybe something here might help - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/USplashCustomizationHowto
[06:05] <AngryElf> intelikey, no entry for mkinitrd? and the only package i found in synaptic has something to do with CD and USB booting
[06:05] <HammerBlade2020> Can somone help me with a hard-drive issue?
[06:05] <damo21> achew22: is there a commandline app to increase the res quickly
[06:05] <concept10> farous, I can connect with streamtuner/xmms, but gosh those streams are horrible (56k)
[06:05] <Achew22> to my knowlege no...
[06:06] <Toma-> damo21, if it verifies your monitors vert and horz sync, then yes. otherwise youll only have 1024
[06:06] <Toma-> or 1048
[06:06] <Achew22> bimberi the syncrate is wrong on the startup graphic it makes the tv freak out
[06:06] <Toma-> whatever it is
[06:06] <intelikey> AngryElf mkinitrd --help     ?
[06:06] <Achew22> any ideas?
[06:06] <farous> ok thanx concept10 perhaps they have problem on the site or for somehow they are blocked here. will check my friewall than isp
[06:06] <farous> thanx again
[06:06] <bimberi> Achew22: no sorry :|
[06:06] <Achew22> I wish I knew how to change that...
[06:06] <Achew22> I fear for my tv
[06:06] <damo21> toma: heres my problem, i have about 2 minutes to test the res of an lcd monitor before i buy the laptop
[06:06] <wastrel> Achew22:  you can turn it off by removing "splash" in your grub menu.lst
[06:07] <Achew22> no I like it, its sexy. I just want the image to not look like its being hit with nerve gass
[06:07] <Achew22> gas*
[06:07] <Toma-> damo21, ctrl-alt-+ or - on the keypad will cycle thru the detected modes
[06:07] <ssstormy> AngryElf, inirtd-tools
[06:07] <intelikey> AngryElf info mkinitrd     might have a page.   idk
[06:07] <Toma-> ahhh laptop
[06:07] <Toma-> doh
[06:07] <etsb> why is it showing errors everytime i try to get update
[06:07] <AngryElf> thanx ssstormy
[06:07] <Toma-> xresprobe ?
[06:07] <yuna> asskum
[06:08] <damo21> toma: i just want to know if this laptop im buying has 1400x1050 or 1024x768
[06:08] <ssstormy> AngryElf, welcome. you found it?
[06:08] <jb1> anybody else get scorched by today's dapper updates?
[06:08] <wastrel> Achew22:  look into usplash/bootsplash configuration - dunno anything about it, i turned mine off ;] 
[06:08] <ssstormy> jb1, take it for granted
[06:08] <AngryElf> yup
[06:08] <Achew22> wastrel thankyou
[06:08] <Toma-> damo21, ask the person youre buying it from?
[06:08] <bimberi> jb1: /topic
[06:08] <ejofee> all my gtk apps lag (for different intervals)... anybody have any idea why?
[06:08] <damo21> Toma: not possible, its an auction
[06:08] <ssstormy> ejofee, you have a slow computer?
[06:08] <Toma-> i see...
[06:08] <jb1> had to turn off everything to do with dri and gl in my xorg.conf
[06:09] <Toma-> damo21, what brand/model?
[06:09] <Achew22> wastrel where are the configuration files
[06:09] <damo21> Toma: basically i want to chuck a bootcd into it and quickly test ram + max res
[06:09] <ejofee> ssstormy: yes, if amd64 is slow.
[06:09] <ejofee> :)
[06:09] <crxyem> so any clues how to get the special Fn Key working on a laptop
[06:09] <AngryElf> intelikey, so, if i compiled my kernel with ext3 support built in (not as a module) then i wouldn't need an initrd.img file?
[06:09] <farous> it is the dam isp
[06:09] <ejofee> ssstormy: i said gtk apps. not all.
[06:09] <Toma-> you wont "quickly" test ram. memtest is slow...
[06:09] <farous> ok thanx all for the help
[06:09] <ssstormy> ejofee, I knew it!  you had one of those.  better upgrade fast!  :)  try reinstalling gtk maybe
[06:09] <ejofee> windows won't refresh
[06:09] <KonphuzeD> ah man very sad
[06:09] <intelikey> AngryElf if your / is ext3 correct.
[06:09] <KonphuzeD> W: Failed to fetch http://mirror.ubuntulinux.nl/pool/extras/w32codecs_20050412-0.0_i386.deb
[06:09] <KonphuzeD>   403 Forbidden
[06:10] <ssstormy> AngryElf, yeah that's the case.
[06:10] <ejofee> ssstormy: i did that already... no use :(
[06:10] <dli> how to enable the root account? I don't want to type passwd for each apt-get
[06:10] <damo21> Toma: i wont wait for memtest to finish, but if they cheated me and shoved incompatible ram in there it will quickly show up
[06:10] <wastrel> Achew22:  all i know is what it's called & how to disable it :]   ask google-  you're probably going to want to change the vga mode it's trying to use.
[06:10] <ssstormy> dli I think if oyu add your user to the admin group
[06:10] <bimberi> dli: sudo -i    gets you a root shell
[06:10] <intelikey> dli  sudo passwd
[06:10] <Toma-> i see
[06:10] <AngryElf> intelikey, since i'm a noob, and didn't read all the config options--cause there's a few thousand-- is there a way to tell if i did or not?
[06:10] <tamzarian> anyone wanna help me go about installing this: http://www.compusa.com/products/product_info.asp?product_code=319102&pfp=srch1
[06:10] <ssstormy> AngryElf, go to /boot/configblablah
[06:11] <ssstormy> AngryElf, or if you did this one, check in /proc/config.gz
[06:11] <dli> bimberi, intelikey thanks
[06:11] <intelikey> AngryElf try to boot it.   if it is there you did  :)
[06:11] <damo21> Toma: dell latitude d600
[06:11] <Toma-> damo21, well, "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" will give you a more hands on setup of the monitor
[06:11] <bimberi> dli: yw :)
[06:11] <ssstormy> AngryElf, the proc/config.gz is a special option you have to enable, I always do
[06:11] <yuna> helo can i c8 with u all?
[06:11] <intelikey> AngryElf if the kernel panix  then it's not there.
[06:11] <damo21> Toma: they made 2 models with sxga+ and xga
[06:11] <ssstormy> intelikey, well not for sure
[06:11] <crxyem> looks like ik8utils package should do the job for me,
[06:12] <ssstormy> intelikey, it could have other issues
[06:12] <AngryElf> CONFIG_EXT3_FS=m   <--means it's a module?
[06:12] <tamzarian> and my printer; http://www.compusa.com/products/product_info.asp?product_code=314130&pfp=SEARCH
[06:12] <ssstormy> AngryElf, yeah
[06:12] <damo21> i only want the laptop if its the sxga+
[06:12] <AngryElf> damn
[06:12] <KonphuzeD> oh my turns out there is a bunch more complaints above that
[06:12] <ssstormy> AngryElf, but if you don't do a make clean
[06:12] <ssstormy> AngryElf, then the rebuild will only take a few minutes
[06:12] <intelikey> yeah AngryElf that's true.     but that would be the most likely.
[06:12] <damo21> Toma: but i need a quick way to test about 10 laptops
[06:12] <tamzarian> anyone? i'm really lost...
[06:12] <tamzarian> :(
[06:12] <AngryElf> can i change that to Y and then do      'make modules_install install'      again?
[06:12] <ssstormy> AngryElf, no you have to do "make" first
[06:12] <HammerBlade2020> can somone tell me why i can boot my computer fine, run stuff fine, but after a few hours my HD ( i think ) messes up and azureus tells me it's a read-only filesystem and then X freezes andi have to reboot my comptuter, Help needed...................
[06:12] <ssstormy> AngryElf, then do that
[06:13] <jetscreamer> AngryElf: use make-kpkg maybe someday
[06:13] <Wammy> what sound system does ubuntu come with as default?
[06:13] <Toma-> damo21, humm...
[06:13] <tamzarian> I might go back to windows XD
[06:13] <jetscreamer> you need to make clean first eh
[06:13] <wastrel> HammerBlade2020:  your processor may be overheating
[06:13] <ssstormy> Wammy, esd and alsa
[06:13] <krystoff> can i do a dist-upgrade in place of upgrade ?
[06:13] <ssstormy> jetscreamer, nah I don't make clean very often, and it works for me
[06:13] <HammerBlade2020> wastrel~ but azureus said
[06:13] <Wammy> where can i find alsaconfig ?
[06:13] <HammerBlade2020> wastrel~ always says, read-only file system
[06:13] <ssstormy> jetscreamer, it always just rebuilds what it needs too
[06:13] <yuna> comce comcecomce comce comce comce comce comce comce comce comce comce
[06:13] <wastrel> HammerBlade2020:  or you're running out of disk space?
[06:13] <IdleOne> krystoff:  yeah
[06:13] <HammerBlade2020> wastrel~ no i got 120 gigs free
[06:13] <ssstormy> HammerBlade2020, that sounds like hardware issues
[06:14] <krystoff> thx IdleOne
[06:14] <HammerBlade2020> ssstormy~ yea...
[06:14] <damo21> Toma: last time i checked the bios, it said xga on a d600, but im not sure if its accurate, so then i might just use the ubuntu-livecd and memtest it
[06:14] <HammerBlade2020> ssstormy~ i cleaned the case and checked the connections :\
[06:14] <intelikey> HammerBlade2020 what release ?
[06:14] <HammerBlade2020> intelikey~ breezy
[06:14] <ssstormy> HammerBlade2020, something like that says things like heat problems to me
[06:14] <jetscreamer> Wammy: it's in alsa-base i 'think'
[06:14] <jetscreamer> alsaconf
[06:14] <dli> how to get X from the installation cd
[06:14] <Wammy> jetscreamer, is that installed by default?
[06:15] <HammerBlade2020> ssstormy~ i vacuumed the case :\
[06:15] <ssstormy> HammerBlade2020, try running with the thingy in an open space with te cover off and maybe even add another fan, even if it's just a regular 12" deal
[06:15] <tamzarian> how do I compile the ZD1211 drivers?
[06:15] <ssstormy> HammerBlade2020, wow
[06:15] <jetscreamer> Wammy: not sure but i don't think so... usually only needed for 2.4 kernels i believe...
[06:15] <jb1> tamzarian: try here: http://www.linuxprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=HP-DeskJet_3845
[06:15] <ssstormy> HammerBlade2020, try someone else's harddrive
[06:15] <Wammy> hrm
[06:15] <HammerBlade2020> ssstormy~ not possible ...
[06:15] <ssstormy> tamzarian, you dont' need to
[06:15] <Wammy> im having problems with the soundcard on my laptop
[06:15] <tamzarian> why not?
[06:15] <ssstormy> HammerBlade2020, have you moved from windows?
[06:15] <jetscreamer> HammerBlade2020: did you check the cpu temp?
[06:15] <cK-gLocK> sup people anyone know how to get hotkeys to work in xmms running ubuntu 5.10.
[06:15] <tamzarian> I am having problems getting my HWU54G working
[06:15] <ssstormy> tamzarian, caus ethey come with ubuntu
[06:15] <HammerBlade2020> jetscreamer~ how do i do that
[06:15] <tamzarian> it wont autodetect
[06:15] <HammerBlade2020> ssstormy~ a long time ago
[06:15] <tamzarian> really?
[06:16] <tamzarian> how can I find them?
[06:16] <tamzarian> im an uber noob
[06:16] <jetscreamer> HammerBlade2020: usually in the bios there's a monitor
[06:16] <ssstormy> HammerBlade2020, did this problem just start happening?
[06:16] <lad_of_nod> Help! fstab is broken and read on from recov console. how can i edit/save changes?
[06:16] <HammerBlade2020> ssstormy~ yes
[06:16] <intelikey> HammerBlade2020 yeah it does sound hardware'ish  any possable tests to that affect like running the live cd  not accessing the hdd but using lots of cpu power may be revieling...
[06:16] <ssstormy> jetscreamer, you can also do apt-get install sensors-*something*
[06:16] <hawkeye> hello?
[06:16] <tamzarian> do I have to grab the drivers off my ubuntu disk?
[06:16] <HammerBlade2020> intelikey~ i have some live-cd's how do i find out if it is over-heating ?
[06:16] <cK-gLocK> sup people anyone know how to get hotkeys (play,pause,stop,nexttrack,prevtrack) to work in xmms running ubuntu 5.10.
[06:17] <ssstormy> HammerBlade2020, sensors-applet and hddtemp
[06:17] <HammerBlade2020> intelikey~ but why does azureus always tell me that it's a read-only filesystem
[06:17] <Goldfisch> lad_of_nod: Use a LiveCD, mount the drives, and then you can proceed to edit fstab.
[06:17] <farous> anyone know why i can access live365.com form my other computer but not from this one. both running ubuntu linux
[06:17] <HammerBlade2020> ssstormy~ i'm using xfce btw :\
[06:17] <hawkeye> does any1 know how 2 install wine on a 64 bit ubuntu?
[06:17] <ssstormy> hawkeye, ytou can always build it yourself
[06:17] <HammerBlade2020> ssstormy~ like i'll be downloading something, then all the sudden it's a read-only file system azureus crashes and then the whole pc crashes, and i know it's not just an azureus problem
[06:18] <ssstormy> HammerBlade2020, sensord
[06:18] <tamzarian> ssstormy, wanna help me install the ZD1211 drivers real quick?
[06:18] <ssstormy> HammerBlade2020, try that one.  it runs as a proc and logs to the system logs
[06:18] <intelikey> HammerBlade2020 as to why the same error.  that is why i sujested omitting the hdd from a test run to see if it infact would reproduce that error without the hdd.
[06:18] <Toma-> damo21, seems the live cd will detect 1280 if its possible, so, if you can get 1280, you should be able to goto 1400...
[06:18] <ssstormy> tamzarian, you mena it's not working normally?
[06:18] <tamzarian> nope
[06:18] <jetscreamer> sensors-detect
[06:18] <tamzarian> it wont autoconnect
[06:18] <ssstormy> tamzarian, have you upgraded or anything, or is it fresh?
[06:18] <HammerBlade2020> intelikey~ okay how should i do that
[06:18] <tamzarian> I just installed ubuntu for the first time today
[06:18] <tamzarian> no errors or anything
[06:18] <lad_of_nod> for some reason my root is /dev/mapper/ubuntu-root and im not sure how to get to the proper place to mount
[06:18] <Wammy> anyone have an idea where i could get the driver (or how to make it work) for a Neomagic NM2200 audio card?
[06:18] <ssstormy> tamzarian, ok so go to command prompt and type ifconfig wlan0 up
[06:19] <tamzarian> in windows?
[06:19] <tamzarian> XD
[06:19] <intelikey> live cd. HammerBlade2020    and maybe even unplug the hdd if possable.
[06:19] <cK-gLocK> 6.01 is coming soon isnt it? would i be uble to just upgrade to 6.10 with ease? without losing anything
[06:19] <tamzarian> I gotta look for the command
[06:19] <cK-gLocK> 6.01 i mean yea
[06:19] <tamzarian> prompt
[06:19] <cK-gLocK> from 5.10
[06:19] <HammerBlade2020> intelikey~ i got sensor-d installed what now
[06:19] <ssstormy> tamzarian, make sure you are root user, or you add "sudo" beforehand
[06:19] <ssstormy> tamzarian, just hit ctl+alt+F1
[06:19] <AngryElf> make-kpkg didn't ask me a single question and has just started make-ing
[06:19] <Goldfisch> lad_of_nod: You installed an LVM setup, root and all. Not sure I can help there. I haven't done root-on-LVM yet.
[06:19] <tamzarian> k
[06:19] <ssstormy> tamzarian, and ctl+alt+F7 to get back to X
[06:20] <ssstormy> HammerBlade2020, start sensord and let it run, watch the systme logs
[06:20] <Goldfisch> Okay, I found me a spare partition (old WIndows one) on my debian machine. Blew it away, and just got Ubuntu loaded on it. Neat!
[06:20] <starpause> the default terminal program isn't displaying text i type. is there a way to reset it without Xing out and starting a new one
[06:20] <HammerBlade2020> ssstormy~ okay it's running.. where are the logs
[06:20] <intelikey> HammerBlade2020 also scan the last log entries for the previous run to see what might show up there just before she crashes.
[06:20] <AngryElf> and it set ext3 support to module, again.....what good was that?
[06:20] <wastrel> what's azureus?  that's a gnutella client?
[06:20] <tamzarian> it says permission denied
[06:20] <ssstormy> HammerBlade2020, /var/log/syslog
[06:20] <ssstormy> AngryElf, what do you mean again?
[06:21] <HammerBlade2020> ssstormy~ localhost sensord Error getting sensor data: lm85/in5: Can't access procfs/sysfs file
[06:21] <wastrel> on the livecd where is the user's temporary filesystem located?
[06:21] <jb1> wastrel: azureus is a java bittorrent client
[06:21] <ssstormy> AngryElf, what config file are ytou reading to?
[06:21] <tamzarian> when I type ifconfig wlan0 up
[06:21] <AngryElf> i have no idea
[06:21] <ssstormy> AngryElf, how do you know it's building as a module?
[06:21] <Toma-> tamzarian, "sudo ifup wlan0"
[06:21] <ssstormy> tamzarian, yes?
[06:21] <AngryElf> i just typed make-kpkg and it flew through the config options as if i was holding enter, then it started making
[06:21] <ssstormy> Toma- ifup works in ubuntu?
[06:21] <AngryElf> cause i scrolled up and i found the ext3 question....and it said m
[06:21] <uzair_> hey all
[06:21] <Toma-> yes indeedy
[06:22] <ssstormy> AngryElf, don't do make-kpkg
[06:22] <uzair_> can someone help me with a problem with wine/steam?
[06:22] <farous> anyone know why i can access live365.com form my other computer but not from this one. both running ubuntu linux. i get the message unkown host trying to ping it
[06:22] <wastrel> HammerBlade2020:  are you mounting your hard drive with the livecd and telling azureus to download stuff to there?
[06:22] <uzair_> farous: check firewall settings?
[06:22] <HammerBlade2020> wastrel~ i'm not on a live-cd
[06:22] <HammerBlade2020> wastrel~ i'm on an HD installed breezy
[06:22] <AngryElf> so i have to 'make' again
[06:22] <tamzarian> ok im back
[06:22] <farous_> uzair_: i disabbled the firewall
[06:23] <wastrel> nvm :] 
[06:23] <ssstormy> AngryElf, yeah, but dont' sweat it
[06:23] <AngryElf> how do i know that it will use the config file that iv'e modified so that ext3=Y ?
[06:23] <uzair_> hmm
[06:23] <ssstormy> AngryElf, which config file did you change?
[06:23] <tamzarian> when I typed up ifconfig wlan0 up it gave me an error, permission denied
[06:23] <ssstormy> tamzarian, you gotta be root
[06:23] <uzair_> anyone get steam to run with wine?? i'm havin a bit of trouble
[06:23] <AngryElf> /boot/config_version-i'm-using
[06:23] <tamzarian> how would I do that?
[06:23] <ssstormy> AngryElf, that's like a backup for future reference
[06:23] <tamzarian> I also typed ifconfig wlan0
[06:23] <tamzarian> without the up
[06:24] <AngryElf> so where's the config file that make will actually read?
[06:24] <ssstormy> AngryElf, the real config that make program reads from is (in this case) at /usr/src/linux_version_/.config
[06:24] <tamzarian> weee, its SO cool to be a noob
[06:24] <uzair_> lol
[06:24] <farous_> ok will reboot now
[06:24] <HammerBlade2020> i guess it is heat
[06:24] <tamzarian> like windows all over again
[06:24] <HammerBlade2020> localhost kernel [4295943.270000]  CPU1: Temperature above threshold
[06:24] <HammerBlade2020> what should i do about heat?
[06:24] <ssstormy> tamzarian, you need to do ifconfig wlan0 up
[06:24] <cafuego> HammerBlade2020: check cpu fan
[06:24] <tamzarian> ok
[06:24] <tamzarian> I did that too
[06:24] <HammerBlade2020> cafuego~ i mean should i take the cover off the case or?
[06:24] <tamzarian> but it gave me the permissions error
[06:24] <a0d> i'm having some problems with my bind dns configuration, the problem consist in this, when i'm trying to ping all my clients machines from my dns server it cant ping all of then because it is not resolving the names, but when i'm from any other machine from my domain i can ping all of the others including the dns server, what am i doing wrong?
[06:25] <ssstormy> HammerBlade2020, check the heat conductor goop on the proccessor connecting it to the fan
[06:25] <cafuego> HammerBlade2020: That would help to see if the fan is spinning, yes.
[06:25] <ssstormy> HammerBlade2020, get a new fan-heatsink assembly
[06:25] <Achew22> okay, can someone help me out -- how do you decode this 1280x1024-32@80 what does it mean -- 1280x1024 resolution at 32 bit but what is the 80 for?
[06:25] <AngryElf> ok
[06:25] <ssstormy> HammerBlade2020, make sure the case has sufficient airflow through
[06:25] <HammerBlade2020> i dunno how to install a fan/heatsink
[06:25] <intelikey> hmmm 135m is not enough room to install kernel source and build one is it?
[06:25] <cafuego> HammerBlade2020: That's trivial. See if it's broken first.
[06:25] <ssstormy> intelikey, not likely
[06:25] <Goldfisch> Probably 80hz refresh rate.
[06:25] <HammerBlade2020> okay...
[06:25] <cafuego> intelikey: Not a 2.6 kenrel, no.
[06:25] <HammerBlade2020> how do i see if it's broken
[06:26] <cafuego> HammerBlade2020: If the fan is not spinning, it's broken.
[06:26] <tamzarian> how do I get past the permission denied error when I type up ifconfig wlan0 up
[06:26] <NickGarvey> use sudo
[06:26] <cafuego> tamzarian: 'sudo'
[06:26] <ssstormy> HammerBlade2020, have you opened the case?
[06:26] <NickGarvey> night guys
[06:26] <tamzarian> whats sudo?
[06:26] <Goldfisch> sudo ifconfig wlan0
[06:26] <ssstormy> tamzarian, or you can do "exit" until it logs out and login as rot
[06:26] <cafuego> !sudo
[06:26] <ubotu> By default, the root password is locked in Ubuntu. Look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo for all information.
[06:26] <tamzarian> ok
[06:26] <jb1> tamzarian: "sudo ifconfig wlan0 up"  put in your password and it should work
[06:26] <ssstormy> tamzarian, a program that lets you pretend ot be root
[06:26] <tamzarian> let me try that
[06:26] <intelikey> tamzarian sudo ?
[06:27] <tamzarian> I think it worked
[06:27] <tamzarian> it didnt show any confirmation
[06:27] <tamzarian> just asked for pass
[06:27] <jb1> tamzarian: "sudo ifup wlan0" is shorter, though
[06:27] <tamzarian> and I gave it mine
[06:27] <ssstormy> tamzarian, you're fine then
[06:27] <tamzarian> ok
[06:27] <ssstormy> tamzarian, now do you have gnome installed?
[06:27] <tamzarian> how do I get out of command prompt to test it?
[06:27] <HammerBlade2020> i took the side off
[06:27] <wastrel> a0d:  mostly desktop users here, maybe try on #linux
[06:27] <cafuego> jb1: Those commands to two DIFFERENT things
[06:27] <tamzarian> I have ubuntu 5.10 installed
[06:27] <tamzarian> is that gnome?
[06:27] <HammerBlade2020> it's spinning
[06:27] <HammerBlade2020> what do i check now
[06:28] <ssstormy> tamzarian, ok switch to ctl+alt+F7
[06:28] <dli> does the ubuntu installation cd support hsf modem?
[06:28] <tamzarian> k
[06:28] <cafuego> HammerBlade2020: is it making  a noise whilst spinning?
[06:28] <a0d> i'm having some problems with my bind dns configuration, the problem consist in this, when i'm trying to ping all my clients machines from my dns server it cant ping all of then because it is not resolving the names, but when i'm from any other machine from my domain i can ping all of the others including the dns server, what am i doing wrong?
[06:28] <ssstormy> HammerBlade2020, hmm try sticking your hand around to see if the air is hot,and if the fans are moving air
[06:28] <norris> i just finished a podcast on installing ubuntu on a new laptop/getting wireless working etc http://lottalinuxlinks.com/podcast/
[06:28] <tamzarian> un ub ctl+alt+f7
[06:28] <HammerBlade2020> ssstormy~ okay
[06:28] <tamzarian> do I just test my connection now
[06:28] <tamzarian> ?
[06:28] <ssstormy> tamzarian, no
[06:28] <tamzarian> ok
[06:28] <HammerBlade2020> cafuego~ yea it's making noise
[06:28] <ssstormy> tamzarian, are you back in the graphical place?
[06:28] <tamzarian> yea
[06:28] <Aine> Hey all. I just set my screen res on install to 1600x1200 and I cant now kill X and try to run xorg conf

[06:28] <HammerBlade2020> ssstormy~ ot
[06:29] <HammerBlade2020> ssstormy~ it's moving air, and it's not real hot
[06:29] <ssstormy> tamzarian, go to system->Admin->networking menu
[06:29] <cafuego> HammerBlade2020: Does it sound unhealthy (rattle, squeak, whine) or ok?
[06:29] <norris> podcast rss feed at http://lottalinuxlinks.com/podcast/rss.xml
[06:29] <tamzarian> hang on
[06:29] <ssstormy> HammerBlade2020, is the heatsink hot?
[06:29] <darthbutcher> How do I copy the files from my iPod onto Linux?
[06:29] <wastrel> Aine:  your X is frozen?
[06:29] <wastrel> !ipod
[06:29] <ubotu> info for syncing your iPod is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IPodHowto
[06:29] <tamzarian> ok im in
[06:29] <bimberi> cK-gLocK: yes, a dev is working on a special app to manage the upgrade
[06:29] <HammerBlade2020> ssstormy~ the HD is very very hot..
[06:29] <ssstormy> Aine, do ctl+alt+F1 and log in, then do killall gdm
[06:30] <dli> how do I install X from the installation cd?
[06:30] <ssstormy> HammerBlade2020, that could be why
[06:30] <darthbutcher> I already have Amarok.
[06:30] <Aine> Wastrel: It has the funky color bars like when someone puts in a wrong vert refresh.
[06:30] <darthbutcher> I am happily listening to my music.
[06:30] <cK-gLocK> nice man
[06:30] <dad_> Hey all..  How do I connect to my wireless router at home AFTER I have disabled SSID Broadcasting (So other people can't as easily scan for it).. I tried 'iwconfig ath0 essid MYSSID channel MYCHANNEL' and wpa_supplicant'ed it, but 'dhclient' still isn't authenticating..  Do I have to indicate the router's specific MAC Address somewhere?
[06:30] <cK-gLocK> very nice
[06:30] <ssstormy> HammerBlade2020, is a fan blowing in it's general direction?
[06:30] <HammerBlade2020> ssstormy~ what the fuck do i do to cool it
[06:30] <darthbutcher> But, how do I get it on my Hard Drive.
[06:30] <HammerBlade2020> ssstormy~ not really..
[06:30] <Aine> ssstrormy: Thank you, that did it :D
[06:30] <intelikey> Aine [crtl] +[alt] +[f2]   = goto tty2        tty7  is where X lives.
[06:30] <cafuego> HammerBlade2020: Install 'hddtemp' to see HOW hot the HD is.
[06:30] <tamzarian> I THINK ITS WORKING
[06:30] <tamzarian> I SETUP MY STUFF
[06:30] <tamzarian> let me test it
[06:31] <ssstormy> tamzarian, did you setup the wireless ESSID and stuff?
[06:31] <HammerBlade2020> dev/sda1: WDC WD1600JD-22HBB0:  36C or F
[06:31] <cafuego> talios: yes
[06:31] <ssstormy> HammerBlade2020, that's funny
[06:31] <cafuego> HammerBlade2020: 36C is not a problem.
[06:31] <ssstormy> HammerBlade2020, the human body is only about that
[06:31] <jb1> talios: today's updates were toxic for a lot of people. you might want to wait a couple of days
[06:31] <tamzarian> yup ssstormy
[06:31] <HammerBlade2020> well it feels reallllllllly hot
[06:31] <tamzarian> should work fine
[06:31] <Aine> ssstormy: What was the command to run the xorg config?
[06:31] <tamzarian> after it enables itself
[06:31] <intelikey> talios dont mix repos.   you will be reloading your system.
[06:32] <tamzarian> its still enabling be right back
[06:32] <ssstormy> Aine, umm I think X -config or X -conf something like that
[06:32] <talios> jb1, I see in #ubuntu+1 gtk's borked with some replacements in the topic
[06:32] <wastrel> Aine:  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[06:32] <ssstormy> tamzarian, if it takes FOREVER it's not working; it will close after a while if it can't connect
[06:32] <HammerBlade2020> ssstormy~ how do i cool the HD
[06:32] <ssstormy> HammerBlade2020, get a fan to blow right at it
[06:33] <HammerBlade2020> how do i do that ;\
[06:33] <talios> intelikey, i'm not touching backports at all - only restricted/multiverse/universe
[06:33] <tamzarian> oh
[06:33] <tamzarian> then I did something wrong huh
[06:33] <tamzarian> :(
[06:33] <ssstormy> HammerBlade2020, well start with making sure it's not in any crevices or places that air can't flow well
[06:33] <streetclerk> When I try to install Ubuntu my monitor just shows a bunch of yellow/blue colors.. shapes. etc.. I'm using a GForce4 video card, and an Imagequest-Hyndai LCD monitor. Can anyone help?
[06:33] <talios> mmm, I'd try the live cd of flight4 if it actually booted ;(  4 machines and it sticks on LVM
[06:33] <ssstormy> tamzarian, go to a console and let's try again
[06:33] <linux_user400354> How can I add this to my path "/usr/local/jdk1.5.0_06/bin/"
[06:33] <tamzarian> the little light isnt blinking
[06:33] <tamzarian> ok
[06:33] <ssstormy> tamzarian, this is the harder way
[06:33] <intelikey> talios that's not what i'm saying.     'do not install packages from one release on another'
[06:33] <AngryElf> ssstormy, now that i have ext3 built into the kernel, I can delete the initrd line in /boot/grub/menu.lst and it should start up fine?
[06:34] <ssstormy> HammerBlade2020, maybe one thing you could do is if you have an intake fan
[06:34] <HammerBlade2020> ssstormy~ the hd is in a rack
[06:34] <ssstormy> AngryElf, yes
[06:34] <ssstormy> HammerBlade2020, what kinda rack?  is it a regular computer case?
[06:34] <intelikey> talios upgrade the whole release or none of it.
[06:34] <HammerBlade2020> ssstormy~ it's a gateway
[06:34] <AngryElf> ssstormy, intelikey, thanx for your help
[06:34] <talios> intelikey, true - in theory an apt-get dist-upgrade -should- do the wholething thou right/
[06:34] <talios> ?
[06:34] <ssstormy> HammerBlade2020, I'm not sure what that is... is it sitting on anything, or supported
[06:35] <talios> intelikey, after all - thats how I installed breezy (from hoary)
[06:35] <HammerBlade2020> ssstormy~ it's in a metal rack
[06:35] <Rob_Dude> So, I've got ubuntu running and VMware setup and all the apps and what not I need (Well, that's not true, I have a lot of .XLS files that won't open/crash OpenOffice - but aside from that)...everything is setup.  But I'm bored.  What are some good games that run in Linux?
[06:35] <HammerBlade2020> ssstormy~ screwed in
[06:35] <intelikey> if you set all the repos to the new   then yes talios
[06:35] <wastrel> linux_user400354:  open up your .bash_profile, and add the line   export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/jdk1.5.0_06/bin/      or for a system-wide change, edit /etc/profile
[06:35] <ssstormy> but is it flat on anything, or are the top and bottom out in the open?
[06:35] <Aine> Rob_Dude: Have you tried America's Army>
[06:35] <talios> intelikey, 700mb of packages to download - I sure hope thats all :)
[06:36] <ssstormy> tamzarian, are you ready?
[06:36] <intelikey> talios probably   but there is like 13g of packages totoal
[06:36] <intelikey> !dstats dapper
[06:36] <ssstormy> HammerBlade2020, ok do you have any extra fans, or is the hd near a fan?
[06:36] <tr011> some good editor for java with sintax completion and debugger ?
[06:37] <wastrel> tr011:  eclipse?
[06:37] <talios> intelikey, yah - I don't have any kde etc.
[06:37] <ssstormy> tr011, jedit, but you need to follow a small guide to instlal it
[06:37] <HammerBlade2020> ssstormy~ no i don't and no it isn't
[06:37] <ubotu> Ubuntu Distro Stats on dapper... 18601 packages, 1749 maintainers, 38121 MB installed size, 11712 MB compressed size.
[06:37] <talios> eclipse or netbeans are good for free stuff
[06:37] <ssstormy> HammerBlade2020, you need something like a fan to cool it and move air or water if you wanna get real crazy
[06:37] <HammerBlade2020> ssstormy~ eh... i dunno what to do
[06:37] <Rob_Dude> Aine:  Nope, But I'll try it now :)
[06:38] <ssstormy> HammerBlade2020, is it an old hd?
[06:38] <ssstormy> and is it still relaly hot to the touch?
[06:38] <linux_user400354> wastrel, when i add to my .bash_profile, does it matter where i add? should i add between the if fi or at the very end?
[06:38] <Aine> Rob_Dude: It's a great game. The linux version will be released soon (The new version 2.6, you can still play 2.5) www.americasarmy.com if you want to check it out
[06:38] <ssstormy> HammerBlade2020, also, what about the processor?  what's it's temprature?
[06:38] <intelikey> HammerBlade2020 i've got a few of the cooling chips from a nucular sub that can hard freeze it if you want.   :)
[06:38] <HammerBlade2020> intelikey~ lol
[06:38] <wastrel> linux_user400354:  at the end outside an if block
[06:39] <HammerBlade2020> ssstormy~ i dunno what it is
[06:39] <HammerBlade2020> ssstormy~ and it isn't old
[06:39] <ssstormy> intelikey, must get cold in th eevenings :)
[06:39] <krystoff> !w32codecs
[06:39] <ubotu> it has been said that w32codecs is a compilation of binary win32 A/V codecs for many popular proprietary formats not currently supported by free implementations under linux. See http://tinyurl.com/e4a5s to install
[06:39] <ssstormy> HammerBlade2020, check those tempreature readings again
[06:39] <HammerBlade2020> ssstormy~ is it better to have the side of the case off or on
[06:39] <HammerBlade2020> ssstormy~ and i moved it more out in the open and the temp is dropping
[06:39] <daidungsi> hello
[06:39] <daidungsi> can i ask you a question ?
[06:39] <ssstormy> HammerBlade2020, well you'll get better circulation with the case open and the thing in open areas
[06:39] <norris> i just finished a podcast on installing ubuntu on a new laptop/getting wireless working etc http://lottalinuxlinks.com/podcast/
[06:40] <ssstormy> HammerBlade2020, but of course it's athstetically less pleasing
[06:40] <daidungsi> i forgot the root password
[06:40] <HammerBlade2020> ssstormy~ well i can leave it open since i don't see it anyway
[06:40] <ssstormy> daidungsi, sudo passwd
[06:40] <daidungsi> how i find it ?
[06:40] <streetclerk> can anyone help me with video card/monitor problems?
[06:40] <ssstormy> HammerBlade2020, if it helps then you might as well try leaving it open
[06:40] <daidungsi> thank
[06:40] <Rob_Dude> I installed w32codecs but I still can't play most of my .wmv movies.  I'm using VLC; is there something else I should do?
[06:40] <wastrel> !anyone
[06:40] <ubotu> probably 90% of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? <hint>
[06:40] <jb1> does anybody else find ubuntu's network installs a bit wanting?
[06:40] <dli> can I install gnome from ubuntu CD?
[06:40] <ssstormy> dli you bet
[06:40] <tamzari> my connection cut out
[06:41] <tamzari> :|
[06:41] <ssstormy> jb1, not compared to windows
[06:41] <dli> ssstormy, apt-get install gnome ?
[06:41] <tamzari> ok so im in the command console
[06:41] <newubuntuman> hey, why does modprove lt_serial not work?
[06:41] <tamzari> what now ssstormy
[06:41] <KonphuzeD> ah i still cant get w32 i changed the repositiries to http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu and now synaptic does not even find w32codec
[06:41] <ssstormy> dli um no I think do apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[06:41] <ssstormy> tamzari, go to command line
[06:41] <tamzari> im in
[06:41] <jb1> ssstormy: in redhat, you just give the installer an IP and a directory and it goes finds the iso
[06:41] <tamzari> ahh
[06:41] <tamzari> my name is shorter
[06:41] <daidungsi> oh yes
[06:41] <ssstormy> tamzari, and do iwconfig wlan0 essid -wireless name-
[06:42] <Mercutio150> can someone help me with something?
[06:42] <daidungsi> i succeed
[06:42] <ssstormy> jb1, I could do that with ubuntu if I wanted...
[06:42] <tamzari> my wireless name is my SSID right?
[06:42] <dli> ssstormy, I'm in big trouble, I have hsf modem, how can I get it work? I couldn't just download the driver, before I can get it driven up
[06:42] <daidungsi> thanks ssstormy
[06:42] <ssstormy> tamzari, yeah that's what I meant
[06:42] <intelikey> actually these things are lots of fun to play with.   they are ceramic composite squares about 2" x 2" x 1/8" with two electric leads   you put 12v in and one side goes to about -20F  the other will fry an egg....   reverse the leads and the heat/cold swaps sides... HammerBlade2020   but i've never applied one to any good use yet.
[06:42] <jb1> ssstormy: i haven;t found the option in the dapper installer yet
[06:42] <krystoff> there's no more w32codecs or java in plf repo ?
[06:42] <zipper> !upgrade
[06:42] <ubotu> Upgrading to Ubuntu 5.10 -> http://wiki.ubuntu.com/BreezyUpgrade. Upgrading to dapper Please test the dist-upgrader -> https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2006-January/014700.html
[06:42] <Mercutio150> I am trying to access programs that I dl'd with synaptic but don't know how
[06:43] <ssstormy> dli, you can boot windows or whatever, go online and download the .deb package for your modem driver, then come back and do a dpkg -i filename.deb
[06:43] <ssstormy> jb1, you have to do it by hand though
[06:43] <dli> ssstormy, too late, windows is gone
[06:43] <wastrel> thermocouple
[06:43] <wastrel> no, peltier junction
[06:43] <ssstormy> dli, then you need another computer or osme kinda live cd with support
[06:43] <ssstormy> tamzari, now I think you can just try dhclient wlan0
[06:44] <ssstormy> tamzari, or actually before that do iwlist scanning wlan0
[06:44] <tamzari> ok
[06:44] <akaihola> I found a couple of corrupted files. Now fsck.ext3 can't find superblock. What's the best thing to do before bringing system down besides backup? Can I fix the superblock?
[06:44] <tamzari> let me do that hang on
[06:44] <tamzari> I did the first one, but I had to add sudo to the front
[06:45] <ssstormy> akai, there are backup superblocks at various places in the partition
[06:45] <Piete> Hey
[06:45] <ssstormy> tamzari, of course.  these all need sudo
[06:45] <Syns> anyone use amule?
[06:45] <tamzari> oh
[06:45] <ssstormy> Syns, i tried 3 times and let it die
[06:45] <ssstormy> let it die A Muleish death
[06:45] <Syns> why do i have to search for servers? why wouldnt it already have them so i can connect?
[06:45] <akaihola> ssstormy: I tried the first one at 8193, but it didn't find that either
[06:45] <Piete> Can someone please help me test my ipv6 link? Just ping6 me on 2001:5c0:8fff:fffe::4899 and let me know if you get through?
[06:45] <ssstormy> mostly cause it wouldn't let me use the edonky links
[06:46] <krystoff> which repository do i have to have to install java ?
[06:46] <tamzari> it tells me 'unknwn command wlan0'
[06:46] <jb1> akaihola: when the file system is made, there are 2 or 3 spare superblocks setup on the partition
[06:46] <intelikey> akaihola there are backup superblocks on the fs.
[06:46] <Syns> stormy: what do u use for filesharing?
[06:46] <ssstormy> akaihola, try a few more and if that dosn't do it, you'll have to just delete th efiles and replace them
[06:46] <krystoff> brb
[06:46] <ssstormy> tamzari, iwlist scanning wlan0
[06:46] <ssstormy> tamzari, or actually
[06:46] <ssstormy> tamzari, i think I may have gotten it backwards, so just iwlist scanning
[06:47] <tamzari> ok
[06:47] <akaihola> ssstormy: I thought I really have to fix the superblock or otherwise I can't reboot
[06:47] <tamzari> so i'll type up iwlist scanning wlan0
[06:47] <tamzari> ?
[06:47] <ssstormy> akaihola, oh oops :) I was thinking about the corruption
[06:47] <intelikey> who uses external journal ?
[06:48] <tamzari> or just iwlist scanning
[06:48] <ssstormy> tamzari, nah just do iwlist scanning
[06:48] <tamzari> k
[06:48] <tamzari> I hate being a noob, sorry
[06:48] <ssstormy> tamzari, don't worry I was a really really bad noob once :)
[06:48] <ssstormy> akaihola, do you have extra space?
[06:48] <Achew22> tamzari its okay -- I'm going to laugh at you anyways
[06:48] <Achew22> ;)
[06:49] <ssstormy> akaihola, I'm not familiar with this kinda recovery, but if all else fails, copy off al the files that are still good and reformat
[06:49] <akaihola> ssstormy: I have extra space on another machine in the local network
[06:49] <tamzari> it says 'Interface does not support scanning' or something
[06:49] <ssstormy> akaihola, also, what's giving the error? mount?
[06:49] <ssstormy> tamzari, aww damn
[06:49] <tamzari> does it matter that its a USB networking device?
[06:49] <akaihola> ssstormy: fsck.ext3
[06:49] <ssstormy> tamzari, no I used one for a while
[06:49] <tamzari> k
[06:49] <tamzari> I can get it to showup
[06:49] <akaihola> ssstormy: corrupt files I found just by looking at them
[06:49] <ssstormy> akaihola, I see...
[06:49] <tamzari> and it somehow scanned my wireless network
[06:49] <tamzari> but it wont connect
[06:49] <tamzari> let me try again
[06:50] <ssstormy> akaihola, I dont' think there's much you can do but dont' htake my word for it
[06:50] <ssstormy> tamzari, wait so you did get some results?
[06:50] <ssstormy> tamzari, then try "dhclient wlan0" now
[06:50] <ssstormy> akaihola, did you try all the superblock backups?
[06:51] <akaihola> ssstormy: I'll do a backup. Which one is faster, 100Mbit LAN or an IDE disk on USB 2.0?
[06:51] <akaihola> ssstormy: I don't know yet how to find backup superblocks.
[06:51] <ssstormy> akaihola, USB goes 400Mbit
[06:51] <ssstormy> akaihola, find a tutorial
[06:51] <KonphuzeD> ok perhaps somebody can show me a sources.list with universe and seveas working servers , please
[06:51] <Dr_Willis> my Lan seems faster then my USB drives
[06:51] <tamzari> ok ssstormy, we did something right. the light is blinking, and making a connection attempt now
[06:51] <ssstormy> akaihola, and if you do fsck.ext3 -h it might even tell you how
[06:51] <tamzari> my WEP key is 128 bit ASCII
[06:51] <fosdor> are there any instructions for installing the update manager to upgrade to drake?
[06:51] <tamzari> how would I set that?
[06:51] <krystoff> sorry there's something i dont understand w32 and java should be in plf repository right ?
[06:52] <ssstormy> Dr_Willis, can't tell you about the drive but the interface is something like 4x as fast, as best I remember
[06:52] <wastrel> what's plf?
[06:52] <tamzari> wtf
[06:52] <tamzari> I didnt quit
[06:52] <Dr_Willis> ssstormy,  they just seem slow.. of course its hard to get good benchmarks
[06:52] <ssstormy> tamzari, iwconfig wlan0 enc XXXX-XXXX
[06:52] <intelikey> plf penguin liberation fundatioy
[06:52] <ssstormy> tamzari, dhclient runs for a while trying ot get addresses
[06:52] <tamzari> what goes in place of the XXXX-XXXX? my key?
[06:52] <me2win> anyone wanna join in on our game of tetris?
[06:52] <ssstormy> tamzari, quit a command line app iwth ctl+C

[06:53] <Dr_Willis> cK-gLocK,  Hmm.. it sits on a little blue/grey charger station?
[06:53] <Aine> sstormy: Does PCI-e have an identifier aside from PCI in the video card's bus identifier?
[06:54] <cK-gLocK> black/grey  charger station yes
[06:54] <abes> any JAVA people here?

[06:56] <mikebot> is there a way to make it so my numlock is on when ubuntu starts up?
[06:56] <Dr_Willis> cK-gLocK,  seems so.
[06:56] <ssstormy> Aine, if it's not working like it should, no, but otherwise
[06:57] <tamzari> anyone else got any ideas on how I can get my HWU54G USB Network Device working?
[06:57] <Dr_Willis> cK-gLocK,  /dev/input/js*  - shows a js0
[06:57] <ssstormy> mikebot, there's a guid in the help manual
[06:57] <jb1> akaihola: you should try: "sudo e2fsck -n /dev/your-borked-partition" to find the next spare superblock
[06:57] <mikebot> ssstormy: a guide for getting my numlock on?
[06:57] <ssstormy> tamzari, what were the erros this time?
[06:57] <ssstormy> mikebot, yes
[06:57] <mikebot> ssstormy: is there not like a simple box i can check or something?
[06:58] <ssstormy> mikebot, not that easy, but it's pretyt simple, one moment
[06:58] <tamzari> let me look
[06:58] <jb1> akaihola: and then: "sudo e2fsck -b spare-superblock" where the spare-superblock will be a number given by the previous command
[06:58] <cK-gLocK> wt
[06:58] <akaihola> jb1: Trying that, also with -b 32768 (and 98304, 163840, 229376 and 294912). Always bad magic number in superblock
[06:58] <cK-gLocK> for some reason i can get in there
[06:58] <cK-gLocK> i type cd js0
[06:58] <cK-gLocK> but it wont lemme in
[06:58] <akaihola> jb1: (and of course first with 8193)
[06:58] <tamzari> error for wireless request
[06:58] <tamzari> and it gave me an error with my WEP
[06:59] <tamzari> 'Invalid argument on 'XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX'
[06:59] <tamzari> but thats obviously not my key ;)
[06:59] <ssstormy> tamzari, add the little -'s inbetween
[06:59] <jetscreamer> js0?
[06:59] <tamzari> every 4 characters?
[06:59] <jetscreamer> isn't that a joystick?
[06:59] <krystoff> do i need some specific things to listen .wav ?
[06:59] <cK-gLocK> yea
[07:00] <Aine> Does anyone know the command to edit text files in console? I keep thinking its vm but it isnt
[07:00] <cK-gLocK> do i gotta edit anything there
[07:00] <cK-gLocK> or run something from there
[07:00] <jetscreamer> you can't cd to a /dev node
[07:00] <ssstormy> Aine, vim
[07:00] <akaihola> jb1: on another mounted fsck.ext3 works ok
[07:00] <jetscreamer> what you want your joystick to work?
[07:00] <ssstormy> Aine, or nano, or emacs
[07:00] <jetscreamer> apt-get install joystick
[07:00] <cK-gLocK> when k
[07:00] <Achew22> nano
[07:00] <jb1> akaihola: you might want to read what Ted T'so has to say about this at: https://listman.redhat.com/archives/ext3-users/2002-January/msg00018.html
[07:00] <cK-gLocK> ill try that
[07:00] <akaihola> jb1: thanks for the link
[07:00] <jetscreamer> cK-gLocK: it's what i had to do
[07:00] <jetscreamer> works fine here
[07:00] <tamzari> isn't there like an easy install thing for USB networking devices?
[07:01] <Aine> ssstormy: what was the way to quit it?
[07:01] <jb1> akaihola: but big grain of salt here since that is 3 years old now
[07:01] <cK-gLocK> k i ran that
[07:01] <cK-gLocK> i checked it to check at bootup
[07:01] <jetscreamer> me too
[07:01] <cK-gLocK> do i need to reboot
[07:01] <cK-gLocK> b4 i works
[07:01] <cK-gLocK> or i can do something now
[07:02] <jetscreamer> if it doesn't work, it's either the usb or the gameport. not positive, i 'think' it works now. maybe not though.
[07:02] <ssstormy> Aine, quit which?
[07:02] <cK-gLocK> how would i check
[07:02] <cK-gLocK> just run joystick from X?
[07:02] <Aine> vim
[07:02] <cK-gLocK> terminal
[07:02] <jetscreamer> not sure about the reboot thing. i know you don't 'have' to, but i don't know if you have to do more to not have to
[07:02] <ssstormy> Aine, press esc, then colon, then q, then enter
[07:02] <ssstormy> tamzari, still not working?
[07:02] <mikebot> ssstormy: ?
[07:02] <tamzari> nope
[07:02] <krystoff> !mp3
[07:02] <ubotu> mp3 is probably a non-free format. To enable mp3 capability, read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[07:02] <jetscreamer> cK-gLocK: yeah try can't hurt.
[07:02] <tamzari> :|
[07:02] <tamzari> im such a noob
[07:03] <tamzari> it looks like it should be
[07:03] <ssstormy> mikebot, go to the pm window, i'm gonna paste some stuff
[07:03] <tamzari> I type in all my stuff right
[07:03] <jetscreamer> cK-gLocK: usb or plugged into the gameport
[07:03] <tamzari> let me try connecting again
[07:03] <cK-gLocK> USB
[07:03] <ssstormy> tamzari, does it accept the password ok?
[07:03] <mikebot> ssstormy: okay
[07:03] <cK-gLocK> my mp3 player worked
[07:03] <cK-gLocK> detected fine
[07:03] <cK-gLocK> when i plugged it in usb
[07:03] <Wammy> Im having some trouble getting the soundcard on this laptop to work, lspci says itis a NeoMagic NM2200 card, ive googled but found nothing that worked, any ideas?
[07:04] <ssstormy> Wammy, you have a default kernel?
[07:04] <Rob_Dude> Aww, no fair.  My mp3 player doesn't work :(
[07:04] <Dr_Willis> cK-gLocK,  installing some of the joystick packages i see with apt-cache search joystick
[07:04] <Rob_Dude> My digital camera does though...so that's cool
[07:04] <Wammy> ssstormy, yeah, is that the problem?
[07:04] <Rob_Dude> My wireless modem...doesn't :(
[07:04] <ssstormy> Wammy, no.  that's good
[07:04] <Dr_Willis> cK-gLocK,  Zsnes isent seeing it. :(  think its not looking in the right place!
[07:04] <cK-gLocK> yea somethings not right
[07:04] <cK-gLocK> =(
[07:04] <intelikey>  http://plf.zarb.org/logo.png :)
[07:05] <Wammy> ssstormy, ive got 2.6.8 i believe
[07:05] <ssstormy> Wammy, try running /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart
[07:05] <Dr_Willis> zsnes is sort of old - it may be looking in the wrong place.
[07:05] <Wammy> one sec, rebooting.
[07:05] <Deramin> is there a player for Ubuntu - Gnome that plays mpg files?
[07:06] <tamzari> is there like a .exe for linux...
[07:06] <Aine> ssstormy: Is there a website which lists refresh rates for many monitors?
[07:06] <tamzari> even better, a linux that sets everything up for you!
[07:06] <tamzari> this one does really
[07:06] <ssstormy> Aine, yes, it's address is www.google.com :)  search, and you will find
[07:07] <tamzari> only thing nt working is wireless USB and my printer
[07:07] <Dr_Willis> cK-gLocK,  looks like many games look for  /dev/js0  - i made a link from there to /dev/input/js0
[07:07] <ssstormy> Deramin, try mplayer or VLC
[07:07] <tamzari> ok, well
[07:07] <tamzari> thanks for the help guys
[07:07] <ssstormy> tamzari, hold up
[07:07] <Aine> Tamzari: hehehee
[07:07] <Aine> ssstormy: I can't remember my monitors name off hand, so I was looking for a list roflmao
[07:07] <tamzari> what
[07:07] <intelikey> .exe for linux   :)      you mean executable files tamzari ?     they are in *bin/
[07:07] <ssstormy> tamzari, I'm looking for a guide
[07:07] <tamzari> I found a few
[07:07] <tamzari> here
[07:07] <ssstormy> tamzari, what's your model name of your wireless adapter?
[07:07] <tamzari> HWU54G
[07:08] <tamzari> http://www.kernelconcepts.de/~nils/zydas1211.html
[07:08] <ssstormy> tamzari, ah and also, just for fun try disabling WEP and see if you can connect, to hellp figure out the problem
[07:08] <tamzari> http://alufis35.uv.es/spip/WiFi-54G-support-on-Linux-PPC-with.html
[07:08] <tamzari> k
[07:08] <tamzari> let me do that
[07:08] <Adalwolf> When installing ubuntu, dual boot with WinXP Pro, do both OSes have to be on the same drive?
[07:08] <frank23> hmmm gam_server is taking 50% of my memory. It's the first time it happens. What can I do about it?
[07:08] <intelikey> Adalwolf no
[07:09] <Wammy> ssstormy, dont know if this has anything to do, but the hotplug subsystem errors out on boot. says permision denied on modprobe
[07:10] <ssstormy> Wammy, good god the last time that kinda error came to me, the whole system wouldn't load
[07:10] <Wammy> well i boot up just fine... :/
[07:10] <ssstormy> Wammy, what's your card again?
[07:10] <Wammy> just no sound
[07:10] <Rob_Dude> Is hardware hot swapable in Linux?
[07:10] <Wammy> NeoMagic NM2200
[07:11] <jetscreamer> if your hw supports it there is support in the kernel
[07:11] <Rob_Dude> I added some RAM, but it doesn't seem any faster...do I need to reboot?
[07:11] <jetscreamer> how far that goes, i don't know
[07:11] <intelikey> Rob_Dude some is some isn't.
[07:11] <Rob_Dude> :)
[07:11] <jetscreamer> lol
[07:11] <Adalwolf> I tried installing a few times tonight, and the first few times, GRUB didn't come up, so I switched the drive order in BIOS, GRUB comes up, but ubuntu hangs before the login screen.
[07:11] <jetscreamer> hotswappable ram?
[07:11] <progrock> Will using a lighter weight desktop (like xfce) lengthen battery life much?
[07:11] <Deramin> ssstormy: thanks a bundle! and MP3's too! Now I can move my music collection over and listen to Dvorak while playing card games at work XD
[07:11] <ssstormy> Deramin, ytou're welcome
[07:12] <intelikey> Rob_Dude you need to power off before removing/inserting ram.
[07:12] <jetscreamer> listen to dvorak?
[07:12] <ssstormy> intelikey, duh...
[07:12] <ssstormy> XD
[07:12] <tamzari> if there is a key in front of the squiggly orange signal, does that mean there IS or IS NOT WEP encryption?
[07:12] <cK-gLocK> when i try to run js0
[07:12] <cK-gLocK> it says permission denied
[07:12] <cK-gLocK> and im in root
[07:12] <cK-gLocK> logged in thru terminal
[07:12] <cK-gLocK> as root
[07:13] <ssstormy> Wammy, there is indeed a NeoMagic driver in the kernel
[07:13] <mikebot> ssstormy: didn't recieve any pm
[07:13] <tamzari> maybe a liveCD would better suit my needs
[07:13] <Piete> How do I prevent certain /etc/init.d scripts from starting at boot?
[07:13] <ssstormy> Wammy, you could try building your own kernel
[07:13] <ssstormy> mikebot, try pming me
[07:13] <Wammy> ssstormy, alsa says: alsactl: load_state:1134 no soundcards found
[07:13] <mikebot> ssstormy: done
[07:13] <Wammy> ssstormy, heh id like to not go through that trouble atm :/
[07:13] <ssstormy> mikebot, this is weird
[07:14] <ssstormy> Wammy, you may have too
[07:14] <ssstormy> one minute
[07:14] <purplefeltangel> does anyone know a music player that can get SMALL and stay on top, like winamp?
[07:14] <Dr_Willis> cK-gLocK,  you dont 'run' js0 its a device. :P not a program
[07:14] <mikebot> ssstormy: it may be because i am using giam
[07:14] <mikebot> ssstormy: one moment
[07:14] <cK-gLocK> matisyahu = TEH WIN
[07:14] <cK-gLocK> oh ok im sry
[07:14] <mw> change
[07:14] <cK-gLocK> im still a linux newb
[07:14] <tamzari> me too
[07:14] <ewood> Hm, doesn't get much more WinAMP-ish than XMMS
[07:14] <cK-gLocK> but im a good easy linux newb
[07:14] <Wammy> purplefeltangel, xmms
[07:15] <intelikey> Wammy modprobe snd-<your card>
[07:15] <ssstormy> Wammy, you could try modprobe -v *
[07:15] <cK-gLocK> another thing idlike to learn to do
[07:15] <cK-gLocK> is this..
[07:15] <purplefeltangel> ewood & wammy: is that already on my computer?
[07:15] <Dr_Willis> cK-gLocK,  i still aint got a good program running to test it - lol.. the jstest tool i apt-get isntalled,  core-dumps :P
[07:15] <B_166-ER-X> purplefeltangel,  xmms can do this
[07:15] <cK-gLocK> get my HOTKEYS to work with xmms
[07:15] <ssstormy> Wammy, ah yes that's better, modprobe -v snd-*
[07:15] <mzinz> Best calendar/organizer program for ubuntu?
[07:15] <ssstormy> if that works of course
[07:15] <cK-gLocK> play pause nexttrack prev track stop ect
[07:15] <Dr_Willis> cK-gLocK,  mame has some massive config files you can edit.
[07:15] <wastrel> evolution probably
[07:15] <Aine> ssstormy: Is there a default xorg.conf file?
[07:15] <ssstormy> unfortunalty there does not seem to be a neomagic module
[07:15] <ewood> Well, probably not.. It'll be listed in the add applications thing, though
[07:15] <Wammy> erm
[07:15] <one> i installed ubuntu for the second time and it of course still doesn't recognize my sound card... i saved the code for it but i don't know what to type in the terminal to enter it...anyone got a couple minutes?
[07:15] <ssstormy> Aine, yeah I think so
[07:15] <cK-gLocK> to get hotkeys to work?
[07:15] <mikebot> mikebot2: blah
[07:15] <ssstormy> Wammy, I looked and didn't find any neomagic modules except video
[07:15] <intelikey> Wammy if you have bash-completion enabled,  use the tab key on that modprobe command.
[07:16] <Psykus> where do you block ports under ubuntu?
[07:16] <purplefeltangel> ooh, thanks everyone who suggested XMMS
[07:16] <purplefeltangel> luv yall i'm out <3
[07:16] <ssstormy> Psykus, install firestarter
[07:16] <ewood> ok
[07:16] <mikebot> ssstormy: pm sent from xchat
[07:16] <AngryElf> ssstormy, Kernel Panic'd on the new kernel......ext3 is enabled.....when I booted on this kernel it said the fs was ext2fs......however /etc/fstab says the fs is ext3.....which is it?
[07:16] <Psykus> downloading now, <3 apt-get
[07:16] <Wammy> hmm
[07:16] <jiisu> hey guys
[07:16] <Wammy> ssstormy, dmesg has something interesting
[07:16] <jiisu> im having a problem getting pictures off my digital camera
[07:17] <tamzari> byr
[07:17] <Wammy> nm256: no ac97 found!
[07:17] <tamzari> bye*
[07:17] <Rob_Dude> Hey - is there any way in gaim to keep your away message up and be chatting?  If not, is there another IM program I can use that will do it?
[07:17] <Psykus> best thing about debian based linux :D
[07:17] <one> any1 know how to install a sound card?
[07:17] <jiisu> anyone have any ideas on how to fix this problem?
[07:17] <Wammy> force the driver to load by passing in the module parameter force_ac97=1
[07:17] <ssstormy> AngryElf, umm I'm not sure... if the kernel is detecting ext2, try changing the fstab to ext2
[07:17] <dli> which command to restart X?
[07:17] <Wammy> how do i do that?
[07:17] <intelikey> AngryElf i started to mention while ago that ext3 = ext2 + journal     you may need ext2 in the kernel   sorry for not saying so.
[07:18] <Wammy> ssstormy, ?
[07:18] <intelikey> AngryElf i.e.  ext2 in place of ext3    or both   but not just ext3.
[07:18] <AngryElf> got it
[07:18] <ssstormy> Wammy, I'm not sure...
[07:19] <purplefeltangel> hey i'm back. can someone tell me if theres a way to get XMMS to like, be a tray icon rather than a thing on the panel?
[07:19] <one> please...
[07:19] <ssstormy> Wammy, but if oyu do modprobe -v modulesname force_ac97=1
[07:19] <ssstormy> Wammy, that could do it
[07:19] <mikebot> ssstormy, still not getting the pms?
[07:19] <ssstormy> mikebot, I'm still messaging you
[07:19] <mikebot> ssstormy, hrm, okay, i guess it wasn't meant to be
[07:20] <ssstormy> mikebot, ok just go to the help icon up top, then go to ubuntu starter guide, then go to tips and tricks
[07:20] <mikebot> ssstormy, i'm afraid i don't have that help button anymore
[07:20] <mikebot> ssstormy, oh, i found it elsewhere
[07:20] <ssstormy> mikebot, oh I see.  Is it still installed?
[07:20] <ssstormy> ok
[07:20] <farous> hmm that is really weird. I can not connect to live365 from this machine either eth or wireless from both window and linux. I can connect to it though from my other pc on the same LAN. Does that mean i am black listed there somehow based on mac address ?
[07:20] <jiisu> anyone have any experience with digital cameras and linux?
[07:21] <intelikey> one pull the cover off the box, and insert the card in the apropreate slot...... oh  hehhe  'sudo podprobe snd-<your card> '  sudo alsamixer       and unmute all.
[07:21] <Dr_Willis> jiisu,  most should show up as a usb drive.
[07:21] <Psykus> ok, I have firestarter up
[07:21] <jiisu> Dr_Willis it doesnt..
[07:22] <Psykus> under policy, what do I need to do?
[07:22] <one> intelikey: nice name, sorry, i mean to say ubuntu/inux doesn't recognize the card, is that still effective?
[07:22] <jiisu> Dr_Willis it says that i can import pictures, but when i hit import it does nothing and just sits there
[07:22] <Psykus> nm, figured it out
[07:22] <mikebot> ssstormy, perfect, perfect--thank you
[07:22] <intelikey> one when you get the driver installed via modprobe and all works   add that module name  'the snd-* part'  to /etc/modules.     yes
[07:23] <Psykus> can you specify multiple ports with commas for firestarter?
[07:23] <Wammy> how do i pass a module kernel parameter?
[07:23] <purplefeltangel> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9616 <-- i get this when i try to apt-get anything
[07:23] <jiisu> Dr_Willis any ideas?
[07:23] <spec> When trying to boot my usb harddrive, I get "No operating system found.", and if I boot grub off my local drive (hda), grub can "see" hd1, but it doesn't see any of the partitions under it...and I get "Error 25" when trying to boot from it, any pointers?
[07:24] <pingu> Ok, new approach: Does anyone here have any bright ideas on how I would go about getting a 2.6.15 kernel onto a hoary install CD?
[07:24] <jetscreamer> remaster the cd
[07:24] <wastrel> pingu:  mount the iso on the hard drive, add the kernel, burn the modified iso ?
[07:24] <jetscreamer> there's a howto that i know of, but it's debian
[07:25] <one> intelikey: command pod probe not found
[07:25] <jetscreamer> modprobe maybe?
[07:25] <jetscreamer> !tell rut -about root
[07:25] <jetscreamer> gah
[07:25] <intelikey> hu ?
[07:25] <one> intelikey: *podprobe
[07:25] <jetscreamer> him go not come
[07:25] <intelikey> oh typo
[07:25] <intelikey> modprobe
[07:25] <jeff_> after an update im having x problems http://pastebin.com/579733
[07:26] <intelikey> the m and the p are so close to gather you know......
[07:26] <pingu> wastrel: Do you know where I would get the sources.
[07:26] <pingu> Used to build the kernel?
[07:26] <Wammy> modprobe -v snd-nm256 force_ac97=1
[07:26] <Wammy> that gives me nothing, no output
[07:26] <pingu> The no doubt patched beyond recognition "ubuntu" kernel sources?
[07:26] <ssstormy> Wammy, did oyu check dmesg?
[07:26] <purplefeltangel> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9616 <-- i get this when i try to apt-get anything. help?
[07:27] <jetscreamer> pingu: maybe you want apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`
[07:27] <intelikey> Wammy you can lsmod   to see what you have installed...
[07:27] <jetscreamer> if you just want the headers
[07:27] <ssstormy> Usage: modprobe [-v]  [-V]  [-C config-file]  [-n]  [-i]  [-q]  [-o <modname>]  <modname> [parameters...] 
[07:27] <pingu> Linux-headers? I don't think so but thanks :D
[07:27] <jetscreamer> if you want to compile your own kernel, get the linux-source
[07:27] <Dr_Willis> jiisu,  mount the thing normally and access it as you would any other usb drive4 perhaps.
[07:27] <Psykus> is there any way to make the vlc player to use the same theme as all your other windows? it's using some old style X11 look at the moment
[07:27] <one> intelikey: wierd, code not registering
[07:27] <rupan3> anyone know a way to set the resolution that xfce uses without actually starting xfce?  i can't find anything that helps anywhere in the docs
[07:27] <jetscreamer> otherwise you want the headers
[07:27] <pingu> Ok, thanks jetscreamer. I'm actually downloading that now.
[07:27] <pingu> It's big though.
[07:27] <rupan3> Psykus: i've been wondering the same thing
[07:27] <one> i got it off the other ubuntu
[07:27] <pingu> I just wanted to make sure :D
[07:27] <wastrel> pingu:  you're trying to change the kernel the CD boots from ?
[07:27] <Dr_Willis> rupan3,  the X res. would be a setting in the X config file.
[07:28] <jiisu> Dr_Willis I'm not very experienced with mounting and such
[07:28] <Wammy> how do i change runlevels?
[07:28] <Psykus> there are skins available for it, but they wouldn't match your gnome theme, http://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-skins2.html
[07:28] <jetscreamer> init 3 for instance

[07:28] <Wammy> ah ok
[07:28] <one> intelikey: should the 'code' look like this: cs4236b?
[07:28] <jiisu> Dr_Willis unless you mean... plugging it in :-p
[07:28] <Wammy> thought it was that way
[07:28] <wastrel> pingu:  i don't know if 2.6.15 is packaged for ubuntu yet, if so it would be in the dapper repo
[07:28] <Dr_Willis> jiisu,  google is our friend. :P   actually ubuntu is normally good at seeing/helping mounting new devices as you plug them in.
[07:28] <rupan3> Dr_Willis: i don't think its that, i ran the dpkg-reconfigure for xserver-xorg and set up the resolution and everything.. but no change.. gdm displays fine, but once i start up the xfce session it changes res and goes all screwy style
[07:28] <Dr_Willis> jiisu,  plug it in, and  run 'dmesg' ina  shell and see.
[07:29] <Aine> Any help with this would be appreaciated. I found my monitors range of H: 30-96 and V: 50-160 but I'm still seeing the weird bars as if the sync range is incorrect.
[07:29] <Dr_Willis> rupan3,  could try removeing your xfce configs and let it reinstall the defaults.
[07:29] <jiisu> Dr_Willis in a terminal you mean?
[07:29] <Dr_Willis> jiisu,  correct.
[07:29] <jiisu> Dr_Willis k
[07:29] <Dr_Willis> a terminal runs a shell :P
[07:29] <jeff_> help me? http://pastebin.com/579733
[07:29] <rupan3> hmm
[07:30] <intelikey> one   idk   turn on bash completion  in /etc/profile or /etc/bashrc  and then use the tab key to finish that line     modprobe snd-cs[tab] [tab] 
[07:30] <Dr_Willis> rupan3,  i dont even rember xfce having the feature to change the X res. Ive seen it in KDE/GNome but not sure how they do it. OR you could just set ONE resolution in the X config.
[07:30] <Aine> Does anyone know how I can put the lspci results into a file so I can read all the results?
[07:30] <wastrel> i'm thirsty
[07:30] <jiisu> Dr_Willis just dmesg
[07:30] <jiisu> ?
[07:30] <jetscreamer> lspci > file.txt
[07:30] <jetscreamer> lspci | less
[07:30] <Aine> Jetscreamer: Thank you.
[07:31] <Dr_Willis> jiisu,  that will show a large list of 'messages' as to what things are going on in the background. unplug, run dmesg, plug, run it again. :P it should show somthing different at the end
[07:31] <intelikey> one other alternatibe is use ls /lib/modules/[tab] /kernel/sound/[tab] [tab]    and look through them.
[07:31] <jetscreamer> Aine: less /etc/X11/xorg.conf and make sure your new values for h&v are listed in the monitor device section... and you restarted gdm after you changed it, right?
[07:31] <jiisu> Dr_Willis k
[07:32] <robbie_> apt-get remove phpmyadmin:    /var/lib/dpkg/info/phpmyadmin.prerm: line 12: db_get: command not found

[07:33] <robbie_> how do I get rid of that package?
[07:33] <robbie_> it needs to go cos it needs php4, and afaik you cant have php4 and php5 on the same apache server
[07:33] <rupan3> nevermind i was able to fix it by hand.. found the display.xml file in ~/.config/xfce4/mcs_settings/

[07:40] <amicrawler> do i do a apt-install what ever file i wish
[07:41] <Aine> Jetscreamer: if the lspci showed it at 0000:01:00.0, is the video cards bus identifier going to be  PCI:1:0:0  ?

[07:42] <intelikey> Malachi if one is a master you could just copy it over.... but as for other methods (i'm sure there are some)  i have no idea Malachi,  i don't even have a gui.   and didn't like evolution when they took the wether report out of it, i stopped using it.
[07:42] <drakonan> all right, i'm doing that part now, but after thati have no clue w

[07:54] <ubotu> Automatix is unsafe, it overwrites configuration files, and does things like "echo -e 'ynYn'" that are considered risky. Please do not use it. There are alternative applications, but it's often best to read the documentation.

[07:54] <varsendagger> ha ha overkill

[07:56] <drakonan> i'm at this site, but nothing looks new enough, there's a link to a beta site, but i don't see anything of value - http://www.physcip.uni-stuttgart.de/heby/ltmodem/
[07:56] <wastrel> drakonan:  you'll have to compile from source, the binary packages are all for 2.6.8...  newest on breezy is 2.6.12
[07:57] <drakonan> http://www.physcip.uni-stuttgart.de/heby/ltmodem/
[07:57] <jetscreamer> Aine: are you sure about the h&v rates? also, less /var/log/Xorg.0.log | less
[07:57] <drakonan> oops, meant to paste version: 2.6.12-10-386
[07:57] <jetscreamer> look for EE
[07:57] <drakonan> all right, where is the 2.6 source at though?
[07:57] <jetscreamer> or just grep it
[07:57] <Aine> Jetscreamer: According to dells website, its   Horizontal scan range  30 kHz to 96 kHz  (automatic)   Verticalscan range  50 Hz to 160 Hz  (automatic)
[07:57] <drakonan> is there a standard way of compiling everthing?
[07:58] <intelikey> 
[07:58] <jetscreamer> wtf

[07:58] <Aine> Intelikey: Yes, Dell M993c
[07:58] <wastrel> drakonan:  eew i was reading the version numbers wrong - these are all for 2.4 kernels?
[07:59] <drakonan> wait, guess what looks like this repository has something:
[07:59] <drakonan> http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/ltmodem/kernel-2.6/Ubuntu/
[07:59] <wastrel> no there's 2.6 versions
[08:00] <drakonan> google has failed me
[08:00] <drakonan> but that link looks all right
[08:00] <intelikey> hsync 30-96  , vrefresh 50-160   hmmmmm  what's in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf    Aine ?
[08:00] <Aine> intelikey: Exactly that. Option DPMS with those ranges
[08:01] <wastrel> drakonan:  it's right above the box with the 2.4 source versions - sez 2.6 version is beta... http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/resources.html
[08:01] <intelikey> Aine did you paste your xorg.conf already ?
[08:01] <Mordof> anyone know of any decent server/client games that i can download that are fun with like.. 2-8 people?
[08:01] <Aine> Intelikey: I am running this through terminal as I can't get X to work on my desktop. I'm chatting off my laptop
[08:02] <Aine> Mordof: check www.americasarmy.com
[08:02] <intelikey> ek
[08:02] <Aine> Intelikey: But I'd type the whole thing out before going back to windows for everything :)
[08:02] <wastrel> drakonan:  this looks non-trivial ;] 
[08:03] <dli> what's the tool to configure dial-up?
[08:03] <Mordof> Aine, ermm... stuff like random dungeons, gui / cli games
[08:03] <Aine> Mordof: Oh, sorry, no...I can't play those games..not enough attention span hehe
[08:03] <Jewishbob> last night i somehow flipped the applications/places/system tabs and the date&time how do i put it back?
[08:04] <intelikey> i'd try with  v = 52-150    because those are common in xorg     and  h = 31-72       then if it works you can raise the 72 a bit Aine
[08:04] <wastrel> drakonan:  ah yes :]  those debs look good
[08:04] <Jewishbob> 3+
[08:04] <Jewishbob> 0202
[08:04] <Jewishbob> sorry cat
[08:04] <drakonan> awesome, hey i'm trying to install "kernel-kbuild-3.6" as per the instructions, but apt-get doesn't find it, is that ok?
[08:05] <Jewishbob> last night i somehow flipped the applications/places/system tabs and the date&time how do i put it back?
[08:05] <farous> Jewishbob: just use your right mouse botton to move them
[08:05] <wastrel> what is kernel-kbuild?
[08:05] <drakonan> no clue
[08:05] <wastrel> which instructions?
[08:05] <intelikey> cause i don't know which way xorg falls when it steps in a hole.....    safe thing would be fall toword safe.   but that may not be what it's doing.   Aine
[08:05] <ddonky> anyone know why flash sound is kinda squeeky like a chipmonk?
[08:06] <drakonan> in the same dir as those deb's: http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/ltmodem/kernel-2.6/Ubuntu/ubuntu-install.html
[08:06] <Aine> Intelikey: No go...still seeing bars and colors when i try to start x
[08:06] <Jewishbob> farous: it wont go past the time
[08:06] <drakonan> maybe i just need the deb's?
[08:06] <Aine> Intelikey: I'm thinking the auto detect of the PCI bus is incorrect :)
[08:07] <farous> Jewishbob: unlock it . you will see a check sign beside lock. just click on it and it will move
[08:07] <drakonan> is there a way to have dpkg install a deb and its dependencies at once?
[08:07] <jetscreamer> Aine: did you grep or less the log
[08:07] <intelikey> Aine  (newbish idea)  did you try   sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg   and enable/disable (which ever it's not) vesa?
[08:08] <jetscreamer> yes list all the packages.. dpkg -i pkg1 pkg2 pkg3.....
[08:08] <jetscreamer> or have a subdir and dpkg -i *.deb maybe
[08:08] <jetscreamer> not sure
[08:08] <Aine> Jetscreamer: Can you explain that a bit more?
[08:09] <jetscreamer> Aine: are you sure about the h&v rates? also, less /var/log/Xorg.0.log | less
[08:09] <jetscreamer> deja vu sorry
[08:09] <quitenormal> hi.
[08:09] <jetscreamer> easier to uparrow
[08:09] <slvmchn> i can convert mp3s to ogg via 'sox' but not mp3 -> ogg, any advice
[08:09] <dli> which tool to dial up?
[08:09] <slvmchn> i can listen to / edit mp3s, but not convert/save AS mp3
[08:10] <intelikey> jetscreamer correction to Aine   not  'less  /var/log/Xorg.0.log | less '    but  grep EE /var/log/Xorg.0.log | less
[08:10] <drakonan> hallelujiah, it looks like it's going to work!!!
[08:10] <Aine> Jetscreamer: Yes, according to dell, the rates are correct. In the ess /var/log/Xorg.0.log | less   what am i looking for
[08:10] <liable> dli: pon/poff, wvdial or the clicky one in network settings.
[08:10] <jetscreamer> that was under what i said, i could uparrow back....
[08:10] <quitenormal> slvmchn another command line tool is ecasound. That's a multitrack recorder studio too, but it does file conversions.
[08:10] <wastrel> drakonan:  yeah that kbuild business is for compiling the deal, you have the .deb so you're good to go
[08:10] <drakonan> now, if only i had a way to test this modem without a phone line
[08:10] <jetscreamer> wayy back
[08:10] <Aine> Intelikey: I will try that
[08:11] <cK-gLocK> anyo0ne know why i cant view video clips in firefox?
[08:11] <cK-gLocK> the mplayer thing initializes and buffers
[08:11] <wastrel> drakonan:  send it atdt and see what it says
[08:11] <cK-gLocK> but all i get is audio
[08:11] <cK-gLocK> novideo
[08:11] <cK-gLocK> =(
[08:11] <slvmchn> quitenormal: it's going to ask me for liblame.so though isn't it
[08:11] <jetscreamer> no codec maybe cK-gLocK
[08:11] <Aine> Intelikey: No such file or directory (END)
[08:11] <Aine> Oops
[08:11] <slvmchn> what file do i edit to change my repos?
[08:11] <Wammy> question: if i remove ubuntu-desktop will that leave me whitha  plain command line linux? no X or GUI apps?
[08:11] <Aine> damn caps sensitive
[08:11] <cK-gLocK> know what i can do to fix it?
[08:11] <cK-gLocK> what codec would fix it
[08:11] <Jewishbob> farous: ok i got it, see last night i pushed some button and it automatically switched
[08:11] <cK-gLocK> for video clips on net
[08:11] <cK-gLocK> i wanna look at funny www.filecabi.net videos
[08:11] <cK-gLocK> lol
[08:11] <jetscreamer> depends on the video
[08:11] <otorinolaringolo> does anybody here use fedora
[08:12] <timfrost> slvmchn, /etc/apt/sources.list
[08:12] <ejofee> all my gtk apps lag (for different intervals)... anybody have any idea why?
[08:12] <slvmchn> oto: try #fedora ?
[08:12] <jetscreamer> Wammy: no it wouldn't
[08:12] <farous> Jewishbob: great :)
[08:12] <jetscreamer> that is a metapackage
[08:12] <Wammy> ...?
[08:12] <dli> liable: thanks
[08:12] <cK-gLocK> whats a good codec pack i could get for ubuntu
[08:12] <Aine> Intelikey: (WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implemented, (??) unknown. (II) Loading extension MIT-SCREEN-SAVER
[08:12] <quitenormal> slvmchn I have the same problem. I just a write shell script that converts the ogg to wave, then uses lame to convert it to mp3.
[08:12] <cK-gLocK> to view videos in firefox?
[08:13] <drakonan> is there a gnome gui dialer? this linux box is going to be my grandfather's
[08:13] <slvmchn> to add the multiverse do i just copy/paste that line "deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy universe main restricted" but change "universe" to "multiverse"?
[08:13] <jetscreamer> Aine: that's not the one
[08:13] <quitenormal> drakonan gnome-ppp.
[08:13] <slvmchn> and " deb-src http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy universe" , change that to multiverse too?
[08:13] <Aine> cK-Glock: There should be a firefox movie player...search in the repository for firefox and there should be one.
[08:13] <intelikey> Aine did you try the reconfigure approach ?   like i mentioned ^ up there ?
[08:13] <cK-gLocK> k nice
[08:14] <Aine> jetscreamer, if you mean less  /var/log/Xorg.0.log | less   I typed it in, but had no idea what to do with it.
[08:14] <jetscreamer> ahh
[08:14] <jetscreamer> yes the reconfigure was done
[08:14] <timfrost> slvmchn, ADD multiverse (universe has free packages, multiverse has packages that don't meet the criteria for "free")
[08:14] <elkbuntu> hmmmmm... should i be worried if when i do 'apt-cache show gtk' it says it cant be found?
[08:14] <defrysk> slvmchn, no just add multiverse to those lines otherwise you'll get double entries
[08:14] <jetscreamer> soci0path: sudo apt-get install hwinfo mdetect read-edid   <--imo
[08:15] <jetscreamer> wtf?
 Aine  (newbish idea)  did you try   sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg   and enable/disable (which ever it's not) vesa?
[08:15] <jetscreamer> i did not hit tab
[08:15] <slvmchn> so change it to deb "http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy universe multiverse main restricted
[08:15] <slvmchn>  "
[08:15] <slvmchn> ?
[08:15] <wastrel> elkbuntu:  i think you want apt-cache search
[08:15] <slvmchn> or just change universe to multiverse
[08:15] <jetscreamer> aine so sudo apt-get install hwinfo mdetect read-edid   <--imo
[08:15] <elkbuntu> wastrel: i'm not looking to -get- it .. in theory i should already have it
[08:15] <jetscreamer> then run sudo hwinfo --monitor
[08:15] <Aine> Intelikey yes, I've done the  reconfigure, but what would I be enabling/disabling ?
[08:15] <defrysk> slvmchn, dont add any lines just put the word multiverse behind the word universe
[08:16] <intelikey> VESA
[08:16] <timfrost> slvmchn, it should read "http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy universe multiverse main restricted"
[08:16] <defrysk> slvmchn, in eny line you se the word universe
[08:16] <defrysk> see*
[08:16] <cK-gLocK> mplayer still tries to init
[08:16] <slvmchn> ok thanks guys
[08:16] <cK-gLocK> so the video still arent viewing
[08:16] <jetscreamer> it's the nv driver on a 6800 or so i think
[08:16] <cK-gLocK> just audio
[08:16] <cK-gLocK> BLAH MAN..
[08:16] <cK-gLocK> lol
[08:16] <jetscreamer> atm
[08:16] <jetscreamer> pci-e
[08:16] <wastrel> elkbuntu:  but show requires the package name.  gtk is not a package name
[08:16] <Aine> Jet, couldn't find package hwinfo
[08:16] <elkbuntu> what is the package name then?
[08:17] <jetscreamer> Aine: universe or multiverse
[08:17] <elkbuntu> i cant see for sure when i'm in CLI cos dapper is broken and a million + 1 things go past the screen
[08:17] <Wammy> man, doing dist-upgrade from warty is a pain in the butt.
[08:17] <cK-gLocK> whats the respository?
[08:17] <cK-gLocK> do i gotta get it from there?
[08:17] <Aine> Haven't been able to enable the universal repository yet.
[08:17] <Wammy> im barely on hoary
[08:17] <wastrel> elkbuntu:  probably libgtk  or libgtk2.0 or something.  depending on what you are looking for
[08:17] <jetscreamer> !info read-edid
[08:17] <ubotu> read-edid: (hardware information-gathering tool for VESA PnP monitors), section universe/utils, is optional. Version: 1.4.1-2ubuntu1 (breezy), Packaged size: 12 kB, Installed size: 72 kB
[08:17] <quitenormal> nothing wrong with hoary.
[08:18] <otorinolaringolo> where can i discuss fedorA?
[08:18] <drakonan> hmm, i can't find gnome-ppp in the apt-cache, can i use kppp in gnome without problems?
 nothing wrong with hoary.        what ?
[08:18] <Wammy> quitenormal, true, however im trying to upgrade alsa/kernel/etc. to see if that automatically fixes my soundcard
[08:18] <wastrel> !info gnome-ppp
[08:18] <Wammy> lol
[08:18] <ubotu> gnome-ppp: (modem internet connection tool for GNOME), section universe/net, is optional. Version: 0.3.21-1 (breezy), Packaged size: 81 kB, Installed size: 608 kB
[08:18] <quitenormal> drakonan should be able to.
[08:18] <wastrel> it's in universe
[08:18] <Aine> Jetscreamer: Would I need the universal repository enabled?
[08:18] <jetscreamer> drakonan: you can usually use kde apps w/o problems
[08:18] <Madpilot> otorinolaringolo, there's a #fedora channel...
[08:18] <timfrost> Aine, jetscreamer, hwinfo is in universe for breezy.
[08:18] <drakonan> do i need to uncomment universe?
[08:18] <jetscreamer> aine universe , yes
[08:18] <quitenormal> intelikey nothing wrong with hoary.
[08:19] <Madpilot> drakonan, it's usually a good idea
[08:19] <elkbuntu> wastrel: i'm checking to see if gtk is installed at all, since i've upgraded to dapper and dont even get the greet screen
[08:19] <Aine> Jetscreamer: how can I enable it through terminal
[08:19] <daidungsi> oh sorry
[08:19] <hungry-hobo> hey guys i had a slight lil question and i hate toi just pop in and ask as it is annoying but here goes anyway (just apologizing b4 hand)..I installed a new 160 ide ata hard drive..a seagate barracuda..Im trying to get it mnounted and having quite some troubles..i split the hard drive up ..i have a primary linux partition thats like 10 gigs..then i have another fat32/vfat partition so that i can use it for universal storage betwee
[08:19] <hungry-hobo> n windows and linux
[08:19] <elkbuntu> wastrel: libgtk2.0 shows nothing either
[08:19] <jetscreamer> Aine: nano -w /etc/apt/sources.list or some other editor
[08:19] <wastrel> elkbuntu:  locate libgtk
[08:19] <Wammy> libgtk-2.00
[08:19] <daidungsi> can you show me the way to install hping
[08:19] <timfrost> drakonan, yes, you need universe
[08:19] <Wammy> libgtk-2.0
[08:19] <intelikey> quitenormal you're not one of those guys that uses software more than ten days old are you ?    cause we at ubuntu don't like that.
[08:19] <hungry-hobo> well im familiar with using the mount command but for the life of me i cant get it to mount..
[08:19] <wastrel> elkbuntu:  it just dumps you on the console?  apt-cache show gdm   maybe
[08:20] <intelikey> :)
[08:20] <quitenormal> intelikey surely u jest. hehe.
[08:20] <elkbuntu> wastrel: you wouldnt believe it, locate engine is not functioning either
[08:20] <wastrel> elkbuntu:  updatedb ?
[08:20] <ejofee> all my gtk apps lag (for different intervals)... anybody have any idea why?
[08:20] <intelikey> p i n g o     p i n g o   .......
[08:20] <elkbuntu> wastrel: well it dumps me in the console and for a good half hour kept trying to go into x but couldnt
[08:21] <hungry-hobo> also when i use the gnome menu and navigate to system >  preferences > disks i can see my hd that i'm referring to...and the 'enable' key is not greyed out for the partitions but when i click enable nothing happens!!it's gfotta be something simple.i mean surely i don't need it in /etc/fstab just to mount it?! but thats alli know to think about
[08:21] <Aine> Jetscreamer: Installing it now.
[08:21] <jetscreamer> Aine: pastebin your xorg.conf if you can
[08:21] <wastrel> elkbuntu:  seems to be   libgtk2.0-0  libgtk1.2   for breezy
[08:21] <Aine> jetscreamer: Can't, running terminal on my desktop where Im installing it...I'm currently typing off my laptop.
[08:21] <jetscreamer> yeah i know
[08:22] <elkbuntu> wastrel: ok, it listed off a heap of stuff with locate then, so gtk is here
[08:22] <hungry-hobo> but any help any of u uber reet power users could throw my way would be greatly appreciated...just not sure how to google it is the only reason i come to  u guys for help
[08:22] <hungry-hobo> cause as i said i know the mount command thoroughly
[08:22] <Aine> Jetscreamer: hwinfo is installed. Pastebin is a command? I thought it was just a typo :)
[08:22] <jetscreamer> Aine: no it's a website
[08:22] <elkbuntu> wastrel: apt-cache show gdm shows what appears to be an info file, since it scrolls past fast and i dont see much of it
[08:22] <jetscreamer> well there are many rather
[08:22] <jetscreamer> Aine: sudo hwinfo --monitor  and lets see if dell's site is right
[08:23] <hungry-hobo> nm i got it
[08:23] <wastrel> elkbuntu:  apt-cache policy  has shorter output, or pipe it thru less
[08:23] <hungry-hobo> thanks anyway
[08:23] <Madpilot> !tell Aine about pastebin
[08:23] <drakonan> awesome you guys, you've helped me out a lot tonight, thanks for your help, it's 1 and i've got to be up at 6 tomorrow so i better hit the sack
[08:23] <drakonan> thanks again wastrel
[08:23] <slvmchn> i still can't make mp3s, i just got 'soundconverter', i know i must have lame installed because i can LISTEN to mp3s, help someone?
[08:23] <intelikey> your welcome hungry-hobo    saved me lots of typing...
[08:23] <hungry-hobo> in case anyone cares or is listening..i just needed to enter an 'access path' for it through the gui 'disks' manager :)
[08:23] <wastrel> yw
[08:23] <elkbuntu> wastrel: so apt-cache show gdm > less ?
[08:24] <intelikey> hungry-hobo aka   mount point
[08:24] <wastrel> elkbuntu:  apt-cache policy gdm  instead
[08:24] <hungry-hobo> sure would like to know how to fix it command line style cuz i feel like i just cheated myself outta some god learning by doing it gui style :)
[08:24] <elkbuntu> ah
[08:24] <hungry-hobo> intelikey, lol man
[08:24] <wastrel> elkbuntu:  and pipe to less would be    | less   fyi
[08:24] <hungry-hobo> :)
[08:24] <elkbuntu> wastrel: well it says it's installed
[08:24] <Aine> Jetscreamer, where can I view the results
[08:25] <wastrel> elkbuntu:  sounds like your x server isn't configured properly then
[08:25] <jetscreamer> Aine: it didn't paste a bunch of stuff in your console i take it
[08:25] <elkbuntu> so dpkg-reconfigure xserver?
[08:25] <elkbuntu> maybe?
[08:25] <jetscreamer> Aine: you used sudo, correct?
[08:25] <wastrel> dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg  probably
[08:25] <defrysk> dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[08:25] <intelikey> hungry-hobo what's your mount command on that?   if you really want to learn what happened there.
[08:25] <mikebot> wastrel, can you reccomend a to-do list type program?
[08:25] <Aine> Jetscreamer: sudo hwinfo --monitor displayed something at the bottom and it disappeared
[08:25] <elkbuntu> thx.. i'll try
[08:25] <fangorious> i've downloaded and burned the flight4 live cd for i386 3 times now, and it seems to always come up with "could not find ramdisk image: /install
[08:26] <jetscreamer> Aine: i get that when i 'don't' use sudo
[08:26] <wastrel> mikebot:  i use evolution... it's more integrated than i think you're looking for
[08:26] <fangorious> i can't eve run the cd check from its boot menu
[08:26] <defrysk> fangorious, perhaps you have to burn it on a slower speed
[08:26] <mikebot> wastrel, ah, yeah, i just want a simple,no menu to-do list
[08:26] <Aine> I typed sudo :)  typed sudo hwinfo --monitor
[08:26] <Aine> should I sudo -s ?
[08:26] <AngryElf> is ncurses-devel a part of another package that I can install from synaptic?
[08:27] <fangorious> defrysk: guess i'll try that, but each time it was burned from a different machine
[08:27] <Aine> Jetscreamer: Doing just sudo hwinfo pasted a lot ... is --monitor the correct switch?
[08:27] <mikebot> wastrel, do you know if wine would allow yahoo widgets to work?
[08:27] <hungry-hobo> intelikey, well i would use 'mount -t fat32 /dev/hdb2 /media/hdb'
[08:27] <defrysk> fangorious, its just a suggestion
[08:28] <wastrel> no idea... dont much mess with wine.   apt-cache search todo  brings up gtodo - GNOME to-do list manager
[08:28] <wastrel> among other things...
[08:28] <jetscreamer> Aine: sudo hwinfo --monitor --log log.txt
[08:28] <fangorious> defrysk: it's the usual reply i get for burned cd images, which i never think of myself, and usually turns out to be correct ...
[08:28] <hungry-hobo> but i think i answered my own question haha lol
[08:28] <theBishop> i have a broadcom wireless nic, ubuntu seems to recognize it and even loads the driver, but i can't get an IP
[08:28] <jetscreamer> Aine: or any name for the log
[08:28] <intelikey> you would need to sudo that hungry-hobo.   and also probably want to add  -o umask=0       to make it user writable.
[08:28] <jetscreamer> Aine: then less log.txt
[08:29] <intelikey> hungry-hobo the type is  -t vfat   on that also.
[08:29] <hungry-hobo> and i been having this prob for like a week and i think i know what i did..i dunno what that 'enable' button did..and the only way i know how to fin my partitions in 'cat /proc/partitions' although i don't know the command to find my physical drives and name them for me
[08:30] <hungry-hobo> i was try to mount /dec/hdb as a whole instead of trying to mount the partition i wanted to access such as /dev/hdb2 ..does that make sense and am i a dumbass?
[08:30] <Aine> Jetscreamer: What will I be looking for in this file?
[08:30] <intelikey> hungry-hobo you can find partitions with  'sudo fdisk -l /dev/hd* /dev/sd* '
[08:30] <timfrost> !info libncurses5-dev
[08:30] <ubotu> libncurses5-dev: (Developer's libraries and docs for ncurses), section libdevel, is optional. Version: 5.4-9ubuntu4 (breezy), Packaged size: 1218 kB, Installed size: 5656 kB
[08:31] <hungry-hobo> when i was doing that it was going on about bad superblock, or filesystem or blah blah..u know the rest :)buti think thats what i was doing wrong..just really would like to know what the 'enable' button really does
[08:31] <jetscreamer> Aine: at the bottom are the h&v rates as detected by hwinfo... btw you installed read-edid & mdetect at the same time eh
[08:31] <hungry-hobo> the button in the disks manager that is
[08:31] <intelikey> hungry-hobo or use ? in place of * to expedite
[08:31] <hungry-hobo> intelikey, thank u for your input and help bro i appreciate it
[08:31] <Aine> mdetect?
[08:32] <jetscreamer> well dang, it's not at the bottom.. yeah it's detects mice
[08:32] <otorinolaringolo> i love fedora. fedora rocks.
[08:32] <lycaos> Hi all, who is french here?
[08:32] <timfrost> AngryElf, check out libncurses5-dev
[08:32] <jetscreamer> for xorg
[08:32] <jetscreamer> !fr
[08:32] <ubotu> well, fr is Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais
[08:32] <hungry-hobo> whats the cmd to find my connected hard drives?? i know 'lspci' is for pci devices but...
[08:32] <intelikey> anytime.    and like i said  there is no  -t fat32   it's  -t vfat   hungry-hobo        lshw
[08:32] <lycaos> ok thanks
[08:32] <otorinolaringolo> I LOVE FEDORA! :-)
[08:33] <jewishbob> how hard is it to duel boot ubuntu and windows
[08:33] <elkbuntu> wastrel: well i tried startx after doing the reconfigure and it says it's already running...
[08:33] <Aine> Jewishbob, not at all.
[08:33] <jewishbob> dual*
[08:33] <wastrel> elkbuntu:  i suggest rebooting :] 
[08:33] <hungry-hobo> intelikey, yeah uwere right about the no fat32..it is vfat after all.....i can mo unt it manually now like i like to do..i try to use command line a lot cuz i get more verbose output for debugging rather than looking at a launch feedback bouncy cursor for 30 seconds lol
[08:33] <intelikey> otorinolaringolo I LOVE MANDRAKE !    lets have an  other distro lovers party....
[08:33] <otorinolaringolo> i love fedora. but dual boot shouldnt be a problem.
[08:33] <jewishbob> aine, ok what about for someone who doesnt know linux at all
[08:33] <elkbuntu> wastrel: i'm scaaaared :P
[08:33] <elkbuntu> brb
[08:34] <Aine> Jetscreamer: Can you give me the name of the mdetect that I need to install?
[08:34] <b3nw> has anyone gotten matroska video's working in dapper with gstreamer-10 ?
[08:34] <intelikey> hungry-hobo i don't have a gui here.
[08:34] <Aine> Jewishbob: Not at all :) install windows then linux, GRUB should detect windows and add it to the loader.
[08:34] <yuri_> hi, I need help making a launcher for ABC torrent. The command is "python ./abc.py". what do I write in the "command" of the launcher so that it executes that code in the specified directory?
[08:34] <hungry-hobo> i will prolly google and find out what that enable button really does cuz I like to know whats going on behind the scenes and learn how to do stuff manually if needed, cuz u never know when u need to do some repairing via runlevel 1/2
[08:35] <otorinolaringolo> when is new fedora coming out?
[08:35] <rysiek|pl> hi there guys, USplash question: when I add an usplash, following the wiki instructions, is it "added" or does it replace the previous usplash?
[08:35] <intelikey> hungry-hobo you are in runlevel 2 atm
[08:35] <intelikey> :)
[08:35] <hungry-hobo> intelikey, so then could u tell me..when u install a brand new hd and format it and junk..is there somethiing u need to do b4 u can start mounting it??
[08:35] <hungry-hobo> intelikey, yeah my brain is :)
[08:35] <jewishbob> aine, ok what about for someone who doesnt know linux at all
[08:36] <intelikey> lol   do   runlevel
[08:36] <hungry-hobo> cuz i just wanna know wtf that 'ebnable' button did heh..if it did anything
[08:36] <mikebot> anyone use gdesklets?
[08:36] <Aine> Jewishbob: If you are using Ubuntu, it comes with GRUB...so when you install Ubuntu it will install GRUB which will detect Windows and add it to the GRUB loader
[08:36] !lilo:*! Repointed http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#spoofing and http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#userexpirations and http://freenode.net/policy.shtml#usernames to the new information on NOIDPREFIX imported from the old devel wiki to http://freenode.net/NOIDPREFIX.shtml and especially http://freenode.net/Why_NOIDPREFIX.shtml
[08:37] <intelikey> hungry-hobo i've never owned a new hdd    hehhe   but no there should not be any special requirements.
[08:37] <melissa> :(
[08:37] <Alexi5> this is the mostlively linux channel i have ever been to
[08:37] <wastrel> mikebot:  i've played with them but i always have windows in front of the desktop so i could never see them :] 
[08:37] <elkbuntu> :(
[08:37] !lilo:*! The material from the wiki is actually minimally modified; it's mostly the formatting that's new
[08:37] <wastrel> elkbuntu:  what video card do you have?
[08:37] <jetscreamer> Aine: apparently the --monitor portion of hwinfo is broken. it doesn't work here anymore.
[08:37] <hungry-hobo> yeah i know more than your average noob but i have a lot i want to learn..i wanna be able to maneuver like i could/can in a dos system..i wanna know how to look at all my hardware theu command line and set stuff up...i just a learn a little at a time every time i run into a snag heh
[08:37] <elkbuntu> integrated
[08:37] <Aine> Jetscreamer: Crap :(
[08:37] <mompirri> I'm having a really hard time getting apache to  load 2 virtual hosts. it's loading only one.  has anyone run into an issue like this?
[08:37] <jetscreamer> or it's an nvidia thing
[08:37] <daidungsi> sorry
[08:37] <hungry-hobo> using parted was a real fun adventure..my latest and greatest anyway lol
[08:38] <mikebot> wastrel, haha ah
[08:38] <daidungsi> how can i install hping app
[08:38] <mikebot> wastrel, i just grew so attached to my yahoo widget to-do list, that i need somehting like it
[08:38] <Aine> Jetscreamer: Using terminal, is there a way that I can send you my xorg.conf ? you mentioned pastebin but I have never heard of it.
[08:38] <jetscreamer> Aine: however, read-edid may help. and also hwinfo will tell you the busid for your card
[08:38] <elkbuntu> wastrel: it's just a crappy integrated one :(
[08:39] <elkbuntu> wastrel: if you said anything in the past minute i didnt see it since x kept trying to start the greeter thing and couldnt
[08:39] <intelikey> well hungry-hobo welcome to linux   and hopefully you will actually see the sun again..... unlike most of us.
[08:39] <jetscreamer> Aine: ftp? or you could just scp the file to your laptop and paste it in a pastebin
[08:39] <jetscreamer> !paste
[08:39] <ubotu> Don't flood the channel! Please use the pastebin at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ or the channel #flood to paste large amount of text.
[08:39] <otorinolaringolo> I heard that somebody here has new windows? any links?
[08:40] <wastrel> elkbuntu:  nope, didn't say anything...   yeah it looks like dapper doesn't like your video card or something...
[08:40] <Aine> Jetscreamer, how can I ftp it via console?
[08:40] <elkbuntu> wastrel: dapper was quite happy with my video card for over 2 weeks
[08:40] <Madpilot> otorinolaringolo, this isn't a Windows channel, or a chat channel - try #ubuntu-offtopic for chat. Thanks.
[08:40] <jetscreamer> Aine: you have to have somewhere to ftp it to
[08:40] <mazzen> hi! are any problems with gdm in dapper reported. or is this a selfmade problem? gdm wont start since the last update
[08:40] <intelikey> GET ALL THE WAREZ YOU WANT AT  127.0.0.1
[08:40] <otorinolaringolo> you're welcome. but, o I heard that somebody here has new windows? any links?
[08:40] <Aine> Jetscreamer: Yes, I do
[08:41] <jetscreamer> yes the new windows is available free at microsoft.com
[08:41] <wastrel> elkbuntu:  sry i though you'd said you just upgraded to dapper
[08:41] <jetscreamer> go forth
[08:41] <elkbuntu> yes, i have, but i had this problem for the past few days
[08:41] <otorinolaringolo> how big is it? is it really free?
[08:41] <jetscreamer> Aine: ok put it somewhere anywhere it can be viewed on the net
[08:41] <elkbuntu> on the old dapper install i had
[08:42] <fangorious> seems the 'default saved' and/or savedefault option for grub in dapper flight4 isn't working (at least not for me, on two computers)
[08:42] <Aine> Jetscreamer: 24: PCI 100.0: 0300 VGA compatible controller is in the log.txt we created. Is that the bus id?
[08:42] <jetscreamer> otorinolaringolo: yeah.. and it's only a 1gig d/l
[08:42] <elkbuntu> apols for the split line... hit enter too many times when x tried to start... it's damn annoying
[08:42] <Aine> Jetscreamer, I need to know how to initiate FTP via console.
[08:42] <mikebot> ugh, there's really no good looking to-do list for deb
[08:42] <otorinolaringolo> did you have a chance to try it out?
[08:42] <intelikey> well i'll be back when i think of something really cool to say......  errrr no.  i won't be gone that long.
[08:42] <Leotoothpic1> hey there whenever i start synaptic i get some errors like these W: Couldn't stat source package list http://us.archive.ubuntu.com breezy/universe Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/us.archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_breezy_universe_binary-i386_Packages) - stat (2 No such file or directory)
[08:42] <jetscreamer> no that's not it, it's elsewhere and says pci bus id i think...
[08:42] <jetscreamer> Aine: type ftp
[08:42] <jetscreamer> or ftp ftp.somewhere.com
[08:43] <Leotoothpic1> any 1 has an idea why i'm getting these
[08:43] <hungry-hobo> intelikey, hey i went to that warez ftp u just gave out ..127.0.0.1...well it tells me to press the any key whenever i connect right..but ewhere the hell is the any key??!!!!!
[08:43] <Aine> Jetscreamer: I see SysFS Bus ID: 0000:01:00.0
[08:43] <wastrel> elkbuntu: need to find someone who's good at troubleshooting X problems... :] 
[08:43] <hungry-hobo> :)
[08:44] <mazzen> astrel, do you have dapper and problem with gdm?
[08:44] <Aine> Jetscreamer: I see this...Driver status : nvidia is not active activation cmd "modprobe nvidia"
[08:44] <wastrel> mazzen:  it's elkbuntu
[08:44] <elkbuntu> wastrel: the prob is not necissarily with x... but something that's shutting x down cos it cant run or something
[08:44] <hungry-hobo> damn u guys are a tough crowd..i should got at least one 'lol' outta that one!!!!
[08:45] <Madpilot> Leotoothpic1, the US archives are probably acting up again - edit your sources to just use the main archives
[08:45] <Ch4s3r> Sorry to be a noob...anyone help me with the root password?  DL'd the ubuntu VMWare appliance and cant find docs on the root pass
[08:45] <elkbuntu> mazzen: i'm the one with the x problem
[08:45] <jetscreamer> Aine: if modprobe nvidia works, change nv to nvidia
[08:45] <mazzen> uh. sry wastrel
[08:45] <elkbuntu> mazzen: although i've done my best to make it his problem as well :P
[08:45] <jetscreamer> Aine: sudo lsmod | grep -i nvidia
[08:45] <jetscreamer> before you modprobe nvidia
[08:45] <Madpilot> Ch4s3r, use your own user pw & sudo - Ubuntu doesn't use a root pw by default
[08:46] <Leotoothpic1> thx madpilot so once they get back to normal i shudn't be getting these error right?
[08:46] <elkbuntu> mazzen: are you having the problem also?
[08:46] <mazzen> as my gdm wont start too, i thought maybee we have both dapper and this problem since ~8hours
[08:46] <AngryElf> what's a definitive way to find out what fs something is mounted as?
[08:46] <Madpilot> Leotoothpic1, probably
[08:46] <jetscreamer> use -t auto in the mount command
[08:46] <mazzen> and i dont know if its a "dapper" testing problem, or if i did something stupid this night
[08:46] <Aine> Jetscreamer: On sudo lsmod | grep -i nvidia  what would you like me to do?
[08:46] <jetscreamer> did it return anything?
[08:47] <elkbuntu> mazzen: yep sound <insert 30 secs of x trying to start> sounds like my prob
[08:47] <hungry-hobo> here's a wierd one i bet u guys have never seen..my original ubuntu 'user' i created at install time..well for some reason when i try to log that user in via the default 'gdm' it goes to start gnome (which im sill getting used to..kinda like it) i get instantly logged out!! i dont get to see anything man!! it says sometihng about 'my session being terminated cuz it was shorter than 10 seconds' !!! crazy huh!!
[08:47] <mikebot> does SuperKaramba work in gnome>?
[08:47] <elkbuntu> mazzen: nope, you did nothing wrong
[08:47] <Aine> Jetscreamer: Ues. mvodoa 3711364 0 and agpgart 32328 1 nvidia
[08:47] <elkbuntu> mazzen: other than try use dapper
[08:47] <hungry-hobo> it only does it with that user though i can log into gnome via gdm with ANY other user..(except root of course) :)
[08:47] <jetscreamer> Aine: was this before or after you did modprobe nvidia
[08:48] <mangelo> ok..so i <b>download</b> easy ubuntu..now how do i run it? lol
[08:48] <Aine> After, I read the message too late to do it before.
[08:48] <jetscreamer> ah. ok
[08:48] <hungry-hobo> i should stop typing so much lol..i think ppl see my big long paragraphs and just skip over em cuz it's too many big letter put together
[08:48] <mazzen> i wouldt say, i try ubuntu, i would prefer i test ubuntu and make its the best OS of the world
[08:48] <hungry-hobo> hahaha
[08:48] <wastrel> dapper channel is #ubuntu+1  fyi - they may have info about this prob?
[08:48] <mazzen> thats sounds better :)
[08:48] <mazzen> oh, i didnt noticed that.
[08:48] <jetscreamer> Aine: sudo rmmod nvidia && sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[08:48] <mazzen> thanks
[08:49] <h36sa> anyone know a somewhat up-to-date e17 repository for breezy?
[08:49] <mangelo> this easy ubuntu is a python script? i think? (im not sure how to use it :-/)
[08:49] <me2win> what does it end in?
[08:49] <mazzen> then i make a step forward and jump to +1. maybe we can fix that error. thanks!
[08:51] <Aine> jetscremer: done, but now I see multi colors in lines, and not just black and white blocks
[08:51] <jetscreamer> Aine: kill the xserver
[08:51] <AngryElf> hey all, i just compiled one of my first kernels.....i set Y to the ext2 and ext3 options in the config file, yet when I goto boot the kernel I get a kernel panic - it say something about being unable to mount the fs....../ is ext3 according to mount.......not sure what i'm doing wrong...???
[08:52] <Aine> jetscreamer: killed x
[08:52] <jetscreamer> AngryElf: did you add in your ide controller?
[08:52] <jetscreamer> Aine: less /etc/modules ... is the word nvidia in there?
[08:53] <Aine> Jetscreamer: No, lp, mousedev, psmouse, spb2, and sr_mod
[08:53] <Rob_Dude> Am I the only one that has a CRAPLOAD of problems trying to play back movies?
[08:53] <AngryElf> jetscreamer, do you know what option that might be?
[08:53] <jetscreamer> AngryElf: depends on what you have.
[08:54] <mustard5> Rob_Dude, I really dont' know...whats the answer?
[08:54] <mustard5> Rob_Dude, what have you done so far to configure your system for playing movies?
[08:54] <AngryElf> cd /dev
[08:54] <AngryElf> bah
[08:55] <Aine> Jetscreamer: What would be the command to put a file into an FTP
[08:55] <jetscreamer> Aine: when you did the dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, was nvidia an option as well as nv?
[08:55] <Aine> Jetscreamer: No, I didn't see it.
[08:56] <Rob_Dude> I've downloaded VLC, the win32codecs a whole bunch of other codecs ;)  I've followed a few different websites instructions; but I always run into errors about missing packages or whatever they are called.
[08:56] <AngryElf> well, how do i find out what ide controller i have??
[08:56] <Angel_Dex> i just installed flux and its menu is like just 3 things why so?
[08:56] <jetscreamer> Aine: be in the directory the file is in when you start ftp. (i don't know how to change the local dir). then if it's ascii, type a is the command. type i for binary. then the command to put a file is put filename
[08:56] <mustard5> Rob_Dude, what would these packages be called in the error messages?
[08:57] <jetscreamer> not just a, type 'type a'
[08:57] <jetscreamer> no ' though
[08:57] <mustard5> Rob_Dude, what about if you start from scratch and follow a guide and tell me what each error message is at it occurs?
[08:58] <Rob_Dude> libdivx4linux, ffmpg
[08:58] <Rob_Dude> w32codecs
[08:58] <jetscreamer> i heard divx is broken or something, not sure
[08:58] <Rob_Dude> Although, I think I ended up getting the w32codecs - but not through apt-get
[08:58] <Aine> Ok, Jetscreamer: I have the file on my desktop of my laptop now.
[08:58] <timfrost> !w32codecs
[08:58] <ubotu> I guess w32codecs is a compilation of binary win32 A/V codecs for many popular proprietary formats not currently supported by free implementations under linux. See http://tinyurl.com/e4a5s to install
[08:58] <jetscreamer> Aine: ok /msg ubotu paste
[08:58] <Rob_Dude> Yeah - that's how I got w32codecs
[08:58] <mustard5> Rob_Dude, k..did you download w32codecs from the link on the Restrited Formats wiki page?
[08:58] <Rob_Dude> Yup
[08:59] <mustard5> Rob_Dude, k...so you then installed them using the dpkg command?
[08:59] <Rob_Dude> Yup
[08:59] <mustard5> Rob_Dude, k
[08:59] <jetscreamer> Aine: break time, brb
[08:59] <mangelo> who talked bout easy ubuntu earlier?
[08:59] <Rob_Dude> I mean, a lot of my movies do play; but I'd say, roughly half don't
[08:59] <Aine> (02:59:12) ubotu: Don't flood the channel! Please use the pastebin at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ or the channel #flood to paste large amount of text.
[08:59] <mustard5> Rob_Dude, what format are the movies that don't play?
[08:59] <Rob_Dude> I'm using VLC - I don't know if that's a 'good' player or not
[09:00] <dli> any idea about encore usb wireless support in linux?
[09:00] <jetscreamer> Aine: go to http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[09:00] <Rob_Dude> All the proprietary Microsoft ones :P
[09:00] <Rob_Dude> Er, wow I can't spell big words
[09:00] <Aine> Rob_Dude, did you try Mplayer
[09:00] <mustard5> dli, I would look over the wireless hardware page
[09:00] <mustard5> !wireless
[09:00] <ubotu> wireless is, like, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCards
[09:00] <dli> mustard5, thanks
[09:00] <jetscreamer> Aine: and paste it in, note the link, give link out to channel
[09:00] <Rob_Dude> Mplayer?  Nah, I'll give that a shot.  I've just got the VLC and whichever comes with
[09:00] <Rob_Dude> Thanks
[09:01] <mustard5> Rob_Dude, are they .wmv files?
[09:01] <jetscreamer> Aine: scp is easier than running an ftp server
[09:01] <Aine> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9618
[09:01] <timfrost> !tell mangelo -about easyubuntu
[09:02] <Rob_Dude> Yeah .wmv and also some .asf
[09:02] <Aine> Jetscreamer: I have many FTPs that I can use :), so I just picked one of them.
[09:02] <mazzen> i have installed mplaxer and xine as i notice that - for what ever - i can play some files with the one and some with the other
[09:02] <mustard5> Rob_Dude, are you on 64 bit kernel?
[09:02] <Rob_Dude> Nah
[09:02] <mazzen> mplaxer => mplayer
[09:02] <mustard5> Rob_Dude, k
[09:02] <mustard5> Rob_Dude, I have heard of problems with .wmv files...I don't know the details though
[09:02] <Rob_Dude> I mean, it's not a big deal I suppose; I'll just avoid .wmv movies in the future.  .mpg play fine
[09:03] <Rob_Dude> I know the 'DRM' protected stuff shouldn't play; but oh well
[09:03] <Rob_Dude> No biggy
[09:03] <mustard5> Rob_Dude, well thats probably a good way to go about it.
[09:03] <elkbuntu> ooooh, libgtk2.0 updates...
[09:04] <mustard5> mangelo, did you get the message on easyubuntu?
[09:04] <Aine> Rob_dude, sorry, I didn't know you were talking about wmv. Wmv there was a source code that was released that would let people play wma and wmv files...google it because I honestly can't rememebr where I found it.
[09:04] <Rob_Dude> Ahh, cool - ty
[09:04] <Rob_Dude> I'll give it a shot
[09:04] <mangelo> i got the one from ubotu
[09:04] <mustard5> mangelo, k..thats the one
[09:05] <mangelo> still doesnt really explain my question..unless im not loooking hard enough
[09:05] <mazzen> X/GDM works again :). if anyone reports a problem like me, he just should make a nother apt-get update/upgrade. thanks!
[09:08] <wastrel> hello
[09:09] <mustard5> mangelo, what was the question?
[09:09] <mustard5> hey wastrel
[09:10] <Spec> heya
[09:11] <mustard5> greetings Spec
[09:11] <elkbuntu> mazzen, IT'S BACK!
[09:11] <Spec> i'm having 'issues' with booting off my usb harddrive
[09:11] <jetscreamer> Aine: was nvidia also an option, as well as nv, when you did the dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg ?
[09:11] <mustard5> Spec, thats a very specialised situation :)
[09:11] <Spec> hehe
[09:12] <Aine> Jetscreamer: Welcome back. No, it wasn't from what I remember. Would you like me to re run it to check?
[09:12] <mustard5> Spec, I don't imagine too many people boot ubuntu off USB :)
[09:12] <elkbuntu> mazzen, update! it was all gtk's fault!!!!!!!
[09:12] <jetscreamer> Aine: yet modprobe nvidia works ...
[09:12] <Spec> well, i have grub installed on the mba of 'sdc', but my bios says no operating system found...
[09:12] <mazzen> hehe, good that it works again!
[09:12] <elkbuntu> YESSS!
[09:12] <mazzen> hehe
[09:13] <Aine> Jetscreamer: nvidia isn't an option.
[09:13] <mustard5> Spec, I take it you followed the thread from the ubuntuforum in which someone else tried this?
[09:13] <Spec> and my grub on the mba of 'hda' boots fine, and if i tab on "root (hd", i see i can have hd0 and h1, and if i tab on root "(hd0,", i get a list of expected partitions, but if i tab on "root (hd1,", I get no partitions.
[09:13] <Aine> Jetscreamer: should I install the nvidia-glx ?
[09:13] <mazzen> text mode is cool and make you think you are a *real good* hacker, but X is nice also :)
[09:13] <Spec> Err, and trying to boot (hd1,0) results in error 25
[09:13] <Spec> mustard5: indeed
[09:14] <mustard5> Spec, I have enough trouble trying to use grub on my normal drives ;)
[09:14] <jetscreamer> Aine: that's what i was thinking, maybe the nvidia driver would function. i don't know why it's not working, it should be, with nv.
[09:14] <Spec> hmm, i usually don't have trouble with grub
[09:14] <Spec> but i've never tried to boot off a usb harddrive
[09:14] <elkbuntu> mazzen, there's nothing wrong with opening term and doing everything in there
[09:14] <jetscreamer> Aine: 'might' be the actual nv driver
[09:14] <Aine> Jetscreamer:I want both nvidia-settings and nvidia-glx ?
[09:15] <mustard5> Spec, you thought about using a different distro for doing it?
[09:15] <jetscreamer> !nvidia
[09:15] <ubotu> from memory, nvidia is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia or http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=57368
[09:15] <Spec> I want to demo Ubuntu at a big convention starting next week, and i haven't the space on my internal drive
[09:15] <mustard5> Spec, ah ok
[09:15] <wastrel> livecd mebby
[09:15] <Spec> livecd is too slow
[09:15] <Spec> not good for demoing the 'speed' of linux, etc etc
[09:16] <mazzen> elkbuntu, wachting movies is better with X :)
[09:16] <elkbuntu> indeed
[09:16] <Spec> no...
[09:16] <Spec> svgalib baby
[09:16] <Spec> or aalib, if you wanna get kinky
[09:16] <elkbuntu> mazzen seveas is telling you to dist-upgrade now :P
[09:16] <elkbuntu> in +1
[09:16] <sinaduel> I have a small newbie question, but my friend told me you could be a server with linux, how do I go about doing this? And since I am worried about certain foreseeable problems, does linux alreay have a firewall?
[09:17] <Spec> sinaduel: yes
[09:17] <Spec> sinaduel: what type of server?
[09:17] <elkbuntu> !iptables
[09:17] <Spec> sinaduel: firewall = iptables
[09:17] <vladuz976> anybody here have experience with ubuntu on a thinkpad r41 ? does it work well?
[09:17] <Aine> Jetscreamer: Since Im in terminal, I will use apt-get ? Also, did you recieve the link with my xorg.conf ?
[09:17] <quitenormal> !iptables
[09:17] <jetscreamer> Aine: yes i got the link, the .conf seems fine
[09:17] <sinaduel> I wanted to have downloadable files on my site
[09:17] <jetscreamer> Aine: apt-get or aptitude
[09:17] <mustard5> sinaduel, the easiest way to set up ubuntu as a server is to choose the 'server' install on the install disk
[09:17] <jetscreamer> apt-get
[09:18] <sinaduel> allright, thankyou
[09:18] <mustard5> sinaduel, you would only have a command line interface though
[09:18] <sinaduel> okay
[09:18] <jetscreamer> !restricted
[09:18] <ubotu> [restricted]  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats  Most of the formats listed here can be replaced by !FreeFormats
[09:18] <kuja> Pfft, who needs GUI... (coming from a guy running GNOME right now)
[09:18] <quitenormal> sinaduel just download and install apache using apt-get. Make sure you look through the conf files and use non standard ports.
[09:18] <mustard5> :)
[09:18] <wastrel> i'm on thinkpad t42 - it is very nice :] 
[09:19] <Aine> Jetscreamer: Im getting invalid operation when I do sudo apt-get nvidia-settings
[09:19] <vladuz976> wastrel: is there a modified version of breezy for it like for the hp laptops?
[09:19] <kuja> Aine: sudo apt-get install nvidia-settings
[09:19] <jetscreamer> Aine: apt-get install
[09:19] <jetscreamer> what he said
[09:19] <wastrel> vladuz976:  not that i know of.
[09:19] <jetscreamer> add the other
[09:20] <kuja> I like aptitude more, but it's harder to type :)
[09:20] <mustard5> Aine, you you forgot the 'install' part
[09:20] <vladuz976> wastrel: do you have wireless network working?
[09:20] <jetscreamer> alias it in .bashrc
[09:20] <wastrel> vladuz976:  yes, my 2200bg is supported & running... i'm using it now
[09:20] <Aine> Jetscreame Kuja and Mustard5: Thank you, I need coffee :D
[09:20] <Aine> Jetscremer: should I get linux-restricted-modules-386 too?
[09:21] <jetscreamer> Aine: i don't know. i use the nvidia-binary
[09:21] <mustard5> Aine, I would suspect it installed itself when you installed the drivers
[09:21] <vladuz976> wastrel: so did it work out of the box or did you have to do a lot of configurations?
[09:21] <mustard5> Aine, if it didnt, then you do need it
[09:22] <Aine> Jetscreamer: Ok, just did sudonvidia-glx-configenable
[09:22] <wastrel> vladuz976:  out of the box pretty much... i still know virtually nothing about wifi setup
[09:22] <mustard5> Aine, what kernel are you running atm?
[09:22] <vladuz976> wastrel: that sounds good
[09:22] <mustard5> Aine, what did the output say?
[09:22] <Aine> jetscreamer: should I try to start x?
[09:22] <Aine> Mustard: Said i have to restart x to take full advantage. Mustard, I'm not sure on the kernal, I'm running breezy if thats what you mean.
[09:23] <mustard5> Aine, k just checking if you have installed another kernel yourself
[09:23] <Aine> Mustard5: hehe, not that smart yet :D
[09:23] <mustard5> Aine, you can find your current kernel with the uname -r  command
[09:24] <mustard5> Aine, I would think it is 386 though from the sounds of it
[09:24] <Aine> 2.6.12-9-386
[09:24] <mustard5> Aine, yeah thats good
[09:24] <Aine> w00t w00t
[09:24] <Wammy|> heh, i installed a new kernel only cuz .15 was the only release that had support for a raid card
[09:24] <Aine> Nvidia drivers did it!!
[09:24] <Wammy|> and the card was bad :/
[09:24] <Aine> <3333
[09:24] <Aine> Jetscreamer and Mustard, where can I travel to send you all my love?! :D
[09:24] <Wammy|> been running 2.6.15-wammy for a mont or so, works fine :P
[09:25] <mustard5> Aine, you should help all others install nvidia drivers now ;)
[09:25] <mustard5> :D
[09:25] <Spec> nvidia drivers rock
[09:25] <Spec> err, more so than ati drivers, that is
[09:25] <Wammy|> mustard5, do you have a while to help me mess with the soundcard on my laptop? :P
[09:26] <mustard5> Wammy|, eeeewwww...sound card troubleshooting...heheheh...my pet hate :)
[09:26] <Wammy|> :/
[09:26] <mustard5> Wammy|, its so hard to find the answers sometimes :)
[09:26] <Wammy|> its really the single most important thing i need
[09:26] <Spec> Wammy|: i do
[09:26] <Spec> Wammy|: i just got mine all working, i have an external and an internal card
[09:26] <Wammy|> the laptop will be installed in my car as a mp3 jukebox
[09:26] <Wammy|> so no sound = no point :/
[09:26] <quitenormal> ouch.
[09:27] <Spec> Wammy|: did you follow the excellent alsa guides?
[09:27] <Wammy|> Spec: its a NeoMagic NM 2200
[09:27] <quitenormal> Wammy| is that safe?
[09:27] <Wammy|> i googled
[09:27] <mustard5> Wammy|, Spec , I would start by looking for modules loading up with lsmod :)
[09:27] <Wammy|> quitenormal, yeah, just gotto do it right.
[09:27] <Spec> lspci -v|grep -i audio will help determine chipset
[09:27] <Wammy|> Spec, thing seems to load fine, alsa says no soundcards found tho.
[09:27] <Aine> Mustard5: Is it recommended that I try to update my Audigy 2ZS cards drivers?
[09:27] <Wammy|> lspci tells me that..
[09:28] <mustard5> Aine, do the ones you have work now?
[09:28] <mustard5> Aine, if it makes noises I wouldnt play with it, but thats just me :)
[09:28] <Wammy|> Spec, google came up with some people that had gotten it working, however alot of the stuff they say to do i donot get :/
[09:28] <Wammy|> mustard5, if it aint broken dont fix it? :P
[09:28] <mustard5> Wammy|, thats my motto ...yep :D
[09:28] <Spec> Wammy|: gentoo has good alsa documentation
[09:28] <Wammy|> yeah i agree
[09:29] <Spec> that even Ubuntu points to, for alsa advice... :p
[09:29] <Aine> Mustard5: No idea, Gotta get the restricted formats then get my music off my NTFS partition :D
[09:29] <Spec> http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/alsa-guide.xml
[09:29] <Spec> start there, Wammy|
[09:29] <Spec> just to double check things
[09:29] <mustard5> Aine, do you here little drum noises all the time though?
[09:30] <Aine> Mustard5: Speakers are off, let me turn them off..might help me hahah
[09:31] <mustard5> Aine,  :)
[09:32] <Wammy|> heh, where is alsaconf ?
[09:32] <Aine> Mustard5: sorry for the delay, running software updates. Is firestarter still a good firewall?
[09:33] <mustard5> Aine, yeah...its not really the firewall though..firestarter is the gui frontend to iptables
[09:33] <mustard5> Aine, iptables is the firewall
[09:33] <Aine> mustard5: Well, I'm looking for a good place to start. I had it on my laptop, so was wondering if I should use it again.
[09:34] <Aine> mustard, yes, I hear the drum.
[09:34] <mustard5> Wammy|, I think ubuntu uses alsamixer or some other name?
[09:34] <Wammy|> hmm
[09:34] <mustard5> Wammy|, gnome-alsamixer  or alsamixergui ?
[09:34] <mustard5> Wammy|, I use the apt-cache search <keyword> to find stuff anyway
[09:35] <VoX> why not use synaptic?
[09:35] <mustard5> Aine, hearing the drum is good :)
[09:35] <mustard5> VoX, I would have to lean forward to my mouse then :D
[09:35] <VoX> heh
[09:35] <VoX> amen
[09:36] <Aine> Mustard: Now only if Maxthon was on Linux, I would be in heaven :D
[09:36] <mustard5> Aine, whats Maxthon?
[09:36] <Aine> Mustard, Maxthon was the browser I used on windows...based of IE but x100 better.
[09:36] <mustard5> Aine, well it doubt it will run on linux then :)
[09:37] <Jdralphs> weird question:  (hello by the way) my pc speaker stopped working in X but the sound mixer seems to think there should be volume to it -- any ideas whats up?
[09:37] <mustard5> Aine, not if its IE based
[09:37] <Jdralphs> maybe under wine....
[09:38] <mustard5> Jdralphs, were up playing a DVD recently (just curious about something I read today)
[09:38] <VoX> Jdralphs: i think the speaker is disabled by default, unless a program specifically calls it
[09:38] <VoX> skype, for instance, will use the pc speaker as the ringer
[09:38] <Jdralphs> musterd5: nope not today anyway
[09:38] <purplefeltangel> can someone help me with XMMS?
[09:39] <mustard5> ah I see I misread your question Jdralphs
[09:39] <VoX> purplefeltangel: whats the problem with it
[09:39] <mustard5> purplefeltangel, what about xmms?
[09:39] <purplefeltangel> vox & mustard5: i installed the status docklet plugin but there's still the xmms thing on my bottom panel
[09:39] <Jdralphs> VoX:  yeah, I wanted to use the mail-notification plugin for evolution using pc speaker beeps -- but alas, I have no sound if Xorg is running
[09:40] <VoX> Jdralphs: it should still work
[09:40] <mustard5> Wammy|, is alsa-base package installed?
[09:40] <VoX> mine does
[09:41] <Jdralphs> Vox:  Mine used to -- I'm thinknig I must've broke something somehow -- I'm just not sure what to look at
[09:41] <VoX> purplefeltangel: so close xmms, and it'll still play through the dock
[09:41] <VoX> Jdralphs: ah.. that im not sure of
[09:41] <purplefeltangel> vox: but i like it open. :/
[09:41] <Jdralphs> VoX:  Fair enough -- thanks!
[09:41] <VoX> purplefeltangel: then what are you complaining about?
[09:42] <purplefeltangel> vox: i want it open but without the taskbar button thing.
[09:42] <mustard5> purplefeltangel, move to a new virtual desktop :)
[09:42] <Jdralphs> ha
[09:42] <purplefeltangel> mustard5: your joke is lost on me.
[09:42] <Aine> purple: at the bottom right are the four blocks..click one that isnt active and then open xmms
[09:43] <Aine> and then go back to your other desktop
[09:43] <Hackaveli> i have a problem  guys i need some help
[09:43] <Hackaveli> i dont wanna reformat my hd
[09:43] <mustard5> purplefeltangel, well if xmms is open on workspace one..then move to workspace 2 and you won't see it in the taskbar
[09:43] <Hackaveli> n i cant get grub to load the hd i have erurything on
[09:43] <purplefeltangel> mustard5: but then i won't see it at all. :/
[09:43] <VoX> o_O
[09:44] <purplefeltangel> aine: i took off the workspace switchything
[09:44] <Aine> purple: ouch :(
[09:44] <Hackaveli> is there anyway i can point m y bootloader
[09:44] <firepol> hi there i've just installed kubuntu-desktop (breezy). Where has the "show desktop" icon disappeared? Can you please help me to re-activate it?
[09:44] <mustard5> purplefeltangel, you can put it back on
[09:44] <wastrel> there should be a way to tell the window list applet to ignore certain programs
[09:44] <Hackaveli> to booth the orignal hd partition
[09:44] <hondadarrell> hello everyone! <@:)
[09:44] <hondadarrell> anyone know how to add win32 codecs to Mplayer?
[09:45] <Hackaveli> w/out havin to reinstall ubuntu?
[09:45] <wastrel> i smell a feature request
[09:45] <purplefeltangel> mustard5: but id ont want to just move XMMS to another workspace. i want to see it, but not have the button on my taskbar. you know. . . like winamp? like the program of which xmms is upposed to be a clone?
[09:45] <mustard5> wastrel, :)
[09:45] <Hackaveli> bot*
[09:45] <Hackaveli> boot*
[09:45] <mustard5> purplefeltangel, I think wastrel has the anwer..put a feature request into the developers
[09:45] <purplefeltangel> mustard5: of the plugin or XMMS? o_o
[09:45] <mustard5> purplefeltangel, of the windows list thingy that is
[09:46] <mustard5> purplefeltangel, the thing that lists the windows in taskbar
[09:46] <purplefeltangel> where do i find *that*?
[09:46] <Jambon> is there such a thing, or will there be an non-free update wizard for installing some basic software needed (like say, mplayer, w32codecs, k3b, java, flash, mp3 codecs etc) for basic deskop usage?
[09:46] <mustard5> purplefeltangel, as if you can ignore certain apps
[09:46] <mustard5> *ask ..I meant to say
[09:46] <purplefeltangel> mustard5: where do i need to go? who to contact?
[09:47] <mustard5> purplefeltangel, you find what package it is ..then find the website that handles it
[09:47] <wastrel> ubotu tell jambon about easyubuntu
[09:47] <mustard5> purplefeltangel, or you can go to launchpad?
[09:47] <mustard5> !launchpad
[09:47] <ubotu> launchpad is, like, totally, a collection of services for projects in the open source universe - https://launchpad.net/
[09:47] <purplefeltangel> mustard5 how do i find what package it is . . . ?
[09:48] <Madpilot> !tell hondadarrell about restricted
[09:48] <Hackaveli> so basically i need to know how can i edit grub to tell it wut partition to load from
[09:49] <Wammy|> /etc/grub
[09:49] <Wammy|> or
[09:49] <Wammy|> /boot/grub
[09:49] <wastrel> Hackaveli:  /boot/grub/menu.lst  is the file
[09:49] <mustard5> purplefeltangel, search for the window list applet in synaptic?
[09:49] <mustard5> purplefeltangel, check packages.ubuntu.com
[09:50] <Hackaveli> okay, i cant get to my linux so i can used systemdisk recovery
[09:50] <Hackaveli> to get to it?

[09:54] <hesse> ahoi
[09:54] <kairu0> hey
[09:54] <mustard5> Hackaveli, ok...so you need an operating system of some kind to view the files?
[09:54] <wastrel> purplefeltangel:  not for a long time :]   but you're doing a public service
[09:54] <Hackaveli> yeah
[09:54] <Hackaveli> basically
[09:55] <DomCatZ> was just checking the room before going ni ni...dont have the time to deal with the problem right now, but will be back to (hopefully) get it solved before sunday...enjoy your evening
[09:55] <purplefeltangel> wastrel: how long is a long time? D:
[09:55] <mustard5> Hackaveli, and you have no functional operating system now?
[09:55] <wastrel> purplefeltangel:  well at least 6 months
[09:55] <purplefeltangel> wastrel: iirc theres already something like this in KDE . . . -_-
[09:55] <mustard5> Hackaveli, your on a seperate computer now i take it
[09:55] <Hackaveli> not on the compute rim wokrin on
[09:55] <wastrel> purplefeltangel:  when the next ubuntu is released
[09:55] <hondadarrell> Madpilot, Thanks man!
[09:55] <purplefeltangel> wastrel: 6 months for . . . the next release after dapper? :/
[09:55] <allanh128> hello
[09:55] <Madpilot> hondadarrell, np
[09:55] <purplefeltangel> wastrel: pardon my ignorance but why couldnt it be implemented in dapper?
[09:55] <Hackaveli> im re-installing ubuntu
[09:55] <Hackaveli> as we speak
[09:55] <wastrel> purplefeltangel:  but probably longer than that for the feature to get into gnome.. i'd guess a year minimum
[09:55] <purplefeltangel> wastrel: eek. D:
[09:55] <Wammy|> apt-get dist-upgrade takes forever....
[09:55] <Hackaveli> but i wanan be able to use the ORINGAL partition to boot to
[09:55] <Hackaveli> not this new one
[09:56] <wastrel> purplefeltangel:  that's if the gnome team decides to do it ;] 
[09:56] <Ashly> How does on get the latest Wine in Ubuntu (not via CVS)
[09:56] <Madpilot> purplefeltangel, feature freeze has already passed for Dapper - full release is only about six weeks away now
[09:56] <purplefeltangel> wastrel: i can't believe i'm saying this. but i'm considering switching to KDE. -_-;
[09:56] <pki> Is there anyone from US with a cellphone?
[09:56] <purplefeltangel> madpilot: OIC
[09:56] <purplefeltangel> pki: i'm from canada with a cellphone. whats the prob?
[09:56] <Hackaveli> if i got to shell onubuntu disc can i do it
[09:56] <mustard5> Hackaveli, I'm still not completely understanding what you have done that is a problem yet
[09:57] <Hackaveli> ok,
[09:57] <wastrel> purplefeltangel:  whatever works for you :] 
[09:57] <Hackaveli> reinstalled ubuntu
[09:57] <Hackaveli> i deleted wut i reinstalled
[09:57] <Madpilot> purplefeltangel, just for info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseSchedule
[09:57] <Hackaveli> but i didnt
[09:57] <cello_rasp> are ther any applications that can read bin/cue files as if they were cd's?
[09:57] <Hackaveli> deled my orginal partition that i had messed up with ubuntu in the beging with
[09:57] <Hackaveli> so i wanna point grub
[09:57] <Hackaveli> to load that partition
[09:57] <purplefeltangel> madpilot: thx
[09:58] <wastrel> yeah dapper is basically frozen, only bugfixes for most stuff
[09:58] <cello_rasp> i ask this because libcdio provides this but i can't find any music software that uses this
[09:58] <mustard5> Hackaveli, why?  its deleted isnt it?
[09:58] <Hackaveli> no
[09:58] <Hackaveli> its not
[09:58] <Hackaveli> just the 2nd one i install
[09:58] <mustard5> Hackaveli, ok
[09:58] <Hackaveli> which its lookin to load from
[09:58] <Hackaveli> see that the problem
[09:58] <mustard5> Hackaveli, k

[09:59] <pki> purplefeltangel, i want to register to gmail, need a cellphone number begiinning with +1 to recieve registration cone
[09:59] <pki> code
[09:59] <mustard5> Hackaveli, have you ever edited grub before?
[09:59] <Wammy|> pki, would a invite work?
[09:59] <purplefeltangel> pki: why do you need a cell phone to receive a registration code? :S
[09:59] <Hackaveli> once but it was gui
[09:59] <Wassercrats> Hi ubuntu people. I created a free diff web app ( http://www.polisource.com/diffnote/ ) and I was wondering what line ending characters are used in ubuntu files?
[09:59] <Hackaveli> i got ubuntu on it
[09:59] <mustard5> Hackaveli, you could probably do this from the grub you have now
[10:00] <Madpilot> pki, anyone with a gmail acct can send you an invite - ask your friends - heck, ask here
[10:00] <Hackaveli> yeah but it says
[10:00] <Hackaveli> error 22
[10:00] <Hackaveli> when it tries to laod
[10:00] <Hackaveli> load
[10:00] <Wammy|> Wassercrats, \n
[10:00] <wastrel> Wassercrats:  same as any linux
[10:00] <mustard5> Hackaveli, have you looked up that error for what it means?
[10:00] <Wammy|> i think it is chr(13)
[10:00] <Madpilot> !ente
[10:00] <ubotu> What? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, Madpilot
[10:00] <Madpilot> !enter
[10:00] <ubotu> please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and is annoying. Write in complete sentences and keep your replies and questions on one line if possible. Thanks!
[10:00] <Wassercrats> Thanks.
[10:00] <Hackaveli> ok

[10:19] <Hackaveli> okay im in there
[10:19] <mustard5> Aine, cya have fun :)
[10:20] <possie> hi
[10:20] <mustard5> Hackaveli, in the menu.lst?
[10:20] <possie> is there away to restricted a user executing a command, to stay underneath a certain directory?
[10:20] <mustard5> greetings possie
[10:20] <Hackaveli> is there a menu.lst?
[10:20] <Hackaveli> yup
[10:20] <Seveas> Hackaveli, in /boot/grub 
[10:21] <Wammy|> woah, what character is that?
[10:21] <mustard5> Hackaveli, so does this menu.lst look like the one that comes up when you boot up?
[10:21] <Madpilot> hi Seveas
[10:21] <wastrel> i think it's a smiley maybe...
[10:21] <Seveas> hi Madpilot
[10:21] <wastrel> i see an a with a ~ on top
[10:21] <Hackaveli> it doesnt really ask anything it goes straigh to ubuntu
[10:21] <Hackaveli> so i figure it was on but not being used
[10:21] <Wammy|> i see a smiley face.
[10:22] <Madpilot> wastrel, it's Seveas' personal odd smiley - I think it's actually a Japanese character
[10:22] <Wammy|> ah
[10:22] <liquidindian> Shi, if I'm not mistaken.
[10:22] <liquidindian> (I probably am)
[10:22] <wastrel> so i should install some japanese fonts to be able to see it?
[10:22] <mustard5> Hackaveli, hmmm...you never see the grub menu...I wonder whether its set to only appear when you hit the ESC key
[10:22] <Wammy|> Im so proud of myself. I no longer use windows at all
[10:23] <Wammy|> i have OS X here, linux on server, OS X on laptop, linux on laptop :P
[10:23] <wastrel> no, i already have apanese fonts
[10:23] <Seveas> now just to ditch OSX and you're clean ;)
[10:23] <Wammy|> haha
[10:23] <Wammy|> i cant, os x is soo perty
[10:23] <Wammy|> :P
[10:23] <Seveas> !tell Wammy| about xgl
[10:23] <Hackaveli> there is adebootstrap in my home directory on /hdc1 too
[10:23] <Hackaveli> if that help
[10:23] <Hackaveli> anything
[10:23] <Madpilot> wastrel, make sure your IRC app is using UTF-8 text encoding
[10:23] <Hackaveli> debootsrap*
[10:24] <Wammy|> even tho i spend most of my time on linux apps
[10:25] <mustard5> Hackaveli, I wouldnt have a clue really
[10:25] <Hackaveli> lol o
[10:25] <mustard5> Hackaveli, I have trouble with grub myself :)
[10:25] <Hackaveli> ok
[10:25] <wastrel> Madpilot:  any idea where to look for that in xchat?
[10:25] <mustard5> Hackaveli, but I've been mucking around with it lately
[10:25] <Hackaveli> ill brb i think this shit has a fake partionmagic on it
[10:25] <Hackaveli> that may solve my prblems
[10:25] <Hackaveli> if i can access it
[10:25] <Madpilot> wastrel, XChat should be using UTF-8 by default - mine is
[10:26] <wastrel> mine durnt seem to
[10:26] <wastrel> prolly because i migrated an old config
[10:27] <vladuz976> is anybody here using msn messagner and having sign in problems? my girlfriend and i both get weird errors? anybody else with the same issue?
[10:27] <Madpilot> wastrel, found it - go XChat menu -> Servers, find your Freenode entry, hit Edit, make sure the Character Set dropdown is set to "system default"
[10:27] <mustard5> vladuz976, on GAIM you mean?
[10:27] <Madpilot> wastrel, because Ubuntu uses UTF-8 as it's system default
[10:28] <mustard5> vladuz976, I'll try to sign in..and see what happens :)
[10:28] <vladuz976> mustard5: doesn't matter, we used gaim on linux and msn on os x
[10:28] <mustard5> vladuz976, I signed in on GAIM no problems
[10:28] <wastrel> Madpilot:  that's what it is set to.... hmm
[10:28] <vladuz976> weird
[10:29] <Madpilot> wastrel, try setting it explicity to UTF-8 then
[10:29] <mustard5> vladuz976, maybe its a local problem
[10:29] <vladuz976> mustard5: i hope, i am afraid someone got a hold of my password
[10:29] <mustard5> vladuz976, both your passwords?
[10:29] <vladuz976> mustard5: what do you mean by both?
[10:29] <wastrel> Madpilot:  it would seem to indicate that my system default is not utf8
[10:29] <mustard5> vladuz976, I thought both of you were having trouble connecting
[10:30] <vladuz976> mustard5: yeah her's is working now
[10:30] <Paul1> hi, does any know how I can access a 'Paradox' created database - I think it's ODBC but if I try to open it via OpenOffice it tells me libodbc isn't installed or somesuch, so i assume some drivers are missing but that filename isn't listed in the package manager.
[10:30] <Madpilot> wastrel, yeah - I can't remember where Ubuntu (or Gnome) keeps system info like that...
[10:30] <mustard5> vladuz976, you both on the same computer?
[10:30] <vladuz976> mustard5: interestingly my myspace account doesn't exist anymore
[10:30] <vladuz976> mustard5: no
[10:30] <ejofee> how do i use tcng? i find no executable?
[10:30] <mustard5> vladuz976, hmmm..
[10:30] <kiran> hi, i'm considering to reinstall my OS, but how can i format, or replace ubuntu?

[10:31] <mustard5> vladuz976, have you configured MSN to connect through a proxy?  Because that never works for me
[10:31] <ejofee> mustard5: use sockscap (in windows) or tsocks (in gnu)
[10:32] <eliphas_> aloha
[10:32] <mustard5> ejofee, I'll remember that if I try it again :)
[10:32] <mustard5> greetings eliphas_
[10:32] <ejofee> mustard5: it will brute-force msn to go out through whatever proxy you want
[10:32] <eliphas_> hello mustard5
[10:34] <Wammy|> gotto refill my drink.
[10:35] <Ashly> Does Ubuntu auto install a firewall or something? :)
[10:35] <colm> Ashly, yes
[10:36] <mustard5> Ashly, by default ubuntu has no listening services on the default install
[10:36] <Ashly> How do I fix that ?
[10:36] <Wammy|> hmm
[10:36] <Ashly> Soo my webserver works?
[10:36] <mustard5> Ashly, well you moved past the default install now :)
[10:36] <mustard5> Ashly, you now have a listening service :D
[10:37] <Ashly> mustard5 , yup
[10:37] <Ashly> But
[10:37] <Ashly> Nobody seems to be able to connect to my webpage
[10:37] <Wammy|> Ashly, does it work when you browse to http://127.0.0.1 ?
[10:37] <Ashly> Yes
[10:37] <Wammy|> perhaps your ISP has port 80 blocked
[10:37] <Ashly> No
[10:37] <Wammy|> most do that nowadays unless you have a business service
[10:37] <Ashly> my ISP doesnt block anything
[10:37] <Wammy|> how are you so sure?
[10:37] <Ashly> Ive asked
[10:37] <Ashly> :)
[10:37] <allanh128> Hello I was wondering if sombody could tell me how to remove lilo from the master bootrecord.  We are running Breezy
[10:37] <Ashly> and I have a business account
[10:37] <allanh128> Badger
[10:37] <Wammy|> are you behind a router?
[10:38] <Ashly> Nope
[10:38] <Ashly> connected directly to the modem
[10:38] <Wammy|> direct connection?
[10:38] <Wammy|> hmm
[10:38] <colm> have you tried localhost?
[10:38] <Wammy|> try going to http://<your outsite IP>
[10:38] <Ashly> When in windows people can connect to my ISS
[10:38] <Ashly> http://darkdragon.ath.cx/  <--- works fine for me
[10:38] <Wammy|> eh...where is the webserver running?
[10:39] <Ashly> On my PC:P
[10:39] <hungry-hobo> hey guys is there any decent dvd authouring tool that is similar to nerovision out there for linux?
[10:39] <allanh128> Sorry.  laptop keyboard is small.  How can I remove lilo from the masterboot record.  running brezzy badger
[10:39] <Wammy|> same one you are connecting from?
[10:39] <Wammy|> or another one inside the network?
[10:39] <Ashly> yup
[10:40] <Ashly> this exact system with my own private static ip :P
[10:41] <Wammy|> traceroute works
[10:41] <Wammy|> check to see if your webserver is configured to listen on 0.0.0.0 (or on ALL interfaces)
[10:41] <ejofee> how do i use tcng? i find no executable?
[10:41] <ejofee> how do i use tcng? i find no executable!
[10:41] <Wammy|> .
[10:41] <Ashly> Ill check my conf settings
[10:41] <Wammy|> man tcng
[10:43] <Ashly> its whatever default for ubuntu's apache2 install
[10:43] <Wammy|> hrm, i wouldnt know, i dont do defaults for apache/php/mysql
[10:43] <Ashly> Theres no listen on set for default
[10:44] <ejofee> Wammy|: "No manual entry for tcng"
[10:45] <liable> allanh128: man lilo (-u option)
[10:45] <Wammy|> google then.
[10:45] <allanh128> thanks
[10:46] <mustard5> ejofee, tcng has documentation on their website
[10:46] <FraZena> Hi everybody! Anyone knows tips to install Ubuntu on an ASUS A8V-MX Motherboard? (UniChrome VGA onboard)
[10:47] <yoyo_2> hi everybody
[10:47] <genius> hi
[10:47] <yoyo_2> little easy question about ubuntu and windows...
[10:47] <mustard5> FraZena, my tip would be to run the live CD first to see how compatible your system is
[10:47] <yoyo_2> I guess it was asked before...
[10:48] <FraZena> [musrtard5]  then it's not compatible
[10:48] <fishse> i cant install ubuntu on a amd64
[10:48] <yoyo_2> every time I boot windows, the system clock is really not on time
[10:48] <Ashly> Soo far the only issue I see with Ubuntu is I cant get anyone to see whats on port 80 :P
[10:48] <Ashly> on my machine
[10:48] <mustard5> FraZena, what issues occured?
[10:48] <Wammy|> yoyo_2, check the bios settings.
[10:48] <fishse> i cant install ubuntu on a amd64 - i downloaded the ubuntuforamd64 and i burnedit to cd - but he stopped installing (cant finish ground system)
[10:48] <Wammy|> Ashly, check the system config
[10:49] <mustard5> yoyo, you dual booting?
[10:49] <yoyo_2> before I installed ubuntu, windows clock was always correct Wammy |
[10:49] <Wammy|> for iptables
[10:49] <fishse> i cant install ubuntu on a amd64 - i downloaded the ubuntuforamd64 and i burnedit to cd - but he stopped installing (cant finish ground system) - PLZ HELP
[10:49] <mustard5> yoyo, I think ubuntu uses UTC or something like that
[10:49] <FraZena> [mustard5]  If I install it after the login the screen is black and the desktop don't start
[10:50] <ejofee> mustard5: thank you
[10:50] <molkko_> so does this legendary ubuntu-calendar monthly wall paper service exist or not?
[10:50] <yoyo_2> when i boot ubuntu, ubuntu has no problem since it uses ntp.ubuntu.org
[10:50] <mustard5> FraZena, what graphics card?
[10:50] <yoyo_2> I just wanted to know why windows time was always ok before I installed ubuntu
[10:50] <FraZena> [mustard5]  I have a UniChrome integrated on the mainboard
[10:50] <mustard5> yoyo_2, I think its because ubuntu is setting the system clock using one standard and windows is using another
[10:50] <Ashly> Wammy, where do I check that at? :P
[10:50] <yoyo_2> ohhhhh...
[10:50] <yoyo_2> ok mustard5
[10:51] <Wammy|> not sure. never messed with it Ashly
[10:51] <mustard5> yoyo_2, look in your clock preferences in gnome...for 'Use UTC'
[10:51] <quitenormal> how does one write shockwave animation on linux?
[10:51] <Wammy|> i usually just do a hardware firewall (router, NAT)
[10:51] <mustard5> yoyo_2, try unticking that box
[10:51] <yoyo_2> thanks mustard5
[10:51] <yoyo_2> I'll do that and see if that solves the conflict
[10:51] <o0> hello! can anyone tell me why i can't access the driver and some packages in ubuntu bash, which i downloaded and burned on cd in windows?
[10:51] <FraZena> [mustard5]  I'm downloading the dapper Live CD to see if it support my chipset
[10:52] <mustard5> FraZena, yeah..I've never heard of UniChrome myself, so I don't know much about it
[10:52] <mustard5> FraZena, I would try running the system on the standard 'vesa' drivers if possible
[10:52] <mustard5> FraZena, when you get to the black screen...try hitting ctrl + alt + f1 to get a command line
[10:53] <yoyo_2> Ashley, is something wrong with your port 80?
[10:53] <mustard5> FraZena, from there you could try a   sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg   command
[10:53] <Hackaveli> anyway i can mount a new root drive?
[10:53] <FraZena> [mustard5]  I have the same problem adding other VGA cads so I suppose the problem is not only the VGA chipset
[10:53] <mustard5> FraZena, when you do that you can choose the 'vesa' drivers instead of whatever its using now
[10:54] <Wammy|> 5am, and apt-get dist-upgrade is still going :/
[10:54] <FraZena> [mustard5]  now I'm on my Windows machine, yesterday I tried reconfiguring X with non success
[10:54] <quitenormal> is there a package to help write shockwave animation on linux?
[10:54] <quitenormal> or do I have to hard code with actionscript?
[10:54] <mustard5> FraZena, what did you reconfigure it to use?
[10:54] <Ashly> wow nmap hates my system too , cant determin the hostmask of ! : no such device
[10:55] <FraZena> [mustard5]  I tried VGA and VESA
[10:55] <Wammy|> Ashly, checkyour ethernet drivers.
[10:55] <corwin> I'm at a a loss. I'm trying to recursively wget everything in the subdirectory of http://www.directory.com/subdirectory/ but wget keeps downloading everything under www.directory.com as well
[10:55] <mustard5> FraZena, hmmm..I wonder whether you could try the noapic nolapic options on install or live CD boot
[10:55] <FraZena> [mustard5]  the same problem changing the hardware, I have a RADEON 9250 and an old Matrox G4

[10:56] <Ashly> its a Rhine-II VT6102
[10:56] <Ashly> lol
[10:56] <FraZena> [mustard5]  what is the "nolapic" option and how can I use it?
[10:56] <sebest_> anyone know how to convert a pdf to rtf or odt ?
[10:56] <colm> open it in kword
[10:57] <mustard5> FraZena, when you start up the live CD..you can press the functions keys to see special boot parameters
[10:57] <Rikku> somebody kill sony.
[10:57] <o0> hello! can anyone tell me why i can't access the driver and some packages in ubuntu bash, which i downloaded and burned on cd in windows? what shuld be wrong?

[10:57] <Rikku> oh... okies
[10:58] <corwin> I need some help with a wget problem
[10:58] <FraZena> [mustard5]  I'll try the nolapic option with the dapper live CD... Now I'm installing FC4 to see if it works

[11:04] <mustard5> p4t, is your internet connection working?
[11:04] <p4t> yeah
[11:05] <p4t> i tried pinging in the terminal and it works
[11:05] <mustard5> p4t, k
[11:05] <p4t> only in the browsers,messenger and xchat
[11:05] <mustard5> p4t, where are you connecting from?
[11:06] <p4t> what do u mean location?
[11:06] <p4t> im from the phil
[11:06] <mustard5> p4t, do you need a proxy to connect from university or something I mean
[11:06] <ulrik> heya ppl..
[11:06] <p4t> nop
[11:06] <ulrik> could someone please point me to a good XSL-editor?
[11:06] <p4t> im in my place
[11:07] <p4t> my house
[11:07] <mustard5> p4t k
[11:07] <ulrik> i.e. not Kate or Emacs.. ;)
[11:07] <mustard5> p4t, i'm not sure what the problem is
[11:07] <Rikku> ulrik: you could use vim :)
[11:07] <p4t> the problem started only this afternoon
[11:07] <p4t> :(
[11:07] <mustard5> p4t where you installing anything just prior to that?
[11:08] <ulrik> Rikku: allright.. let me correct my previous statement.. "not emacs, kate or vim" ;)
[11:08] <megsona> hi - anyone got 5 mins for a newbie
[11:08] <p4t> what do u mean?
[11:08] <Rikku> ulrik: lol... gvim's quite nice tho
[11:08] <mustard5> p4t could you have installed something that changed your network settings?
[11:08] <p4t> hmmm..
[11:09] <p4t> i think the TOR
[11:09] <p4t> yeap the tor
[11:09] <mustard5> p4t, ah well thats a big clue :)
[11:09] <p4t> so should i unintalled it?
[11:09] <mustard5> is the TOR process running?
[11:09] <p4t> nop
[11:09] <ulrik> Rikku: well, it works, but if I want a plain editor, I still prefer Kate.. right now I'm looking for something a bit more specialised..
[11:09] <mustard5> that might be the problem then
[11:09] <pycs> hi, is there a web extractor for ubuntu?
[11:10] <mustard5> you could either uninstall or start tor
[11:10] <Rikku> megsona: what's your question?
[11:10] <p4t> i cant connect using tor
[11:10] <p4t> may i have to uninstall it
[11:10] <p4t> :(
[11:10] <p4t> maybe i have to uninstall it
[11:10] <osfameron> ulrik: synaptic finds an xml-editor, but it's KDE so lots of dependencies if you've not already got that installed
[11:10] <mustard5> p4t, possibly..do you really need it?
[11:11] <Ashly> god this is the weirdest thing ive seen im my life..
[11:11] <osfameron> tbh, xml editing is still editing, you may find that a sufficiently good plugin to an editor is more effective than a "specialized" but less weell developed tool
[11:11] <p4t> slight
[11:11] <megsona> every time i boot 5.10 OO writer starts automatically - i've checked the startup programs in sessions but it's empty - where do i look?
[11:11] <mustard5> p4t, I would have a bit of a read about TOR and how it works to make sure you have it set up right
[11:11] <p4t> okies
[11:11] <mustard5> p4t, there is a thread in the ubuntu forums on the subject
[11:11] <ulrik> osfameron: I think I've used that before, but last time I checked it weren't really worth the fuzz.. mainly a graphical tree serializable back and forth to XML.. might be worth to check again, though.. :)
[11:11] <Afief> How can i make my Gnome look like this: http://www.gnome-look.org/content/pre1/15963-1.jpg ?
[11:11] <mustard5> p4t, try in the tips tricks and customisation section
[11:12] <p4t> okies
[11:12] <p4t> thnks
[11:12] <mustard5> p4t you can do a search on the forums using the keywords tor privoxy
[11:12] <p4t> ok sir
[11:12] <newbuntie> ulrik: what are you talking about?

[11:17] <Ashly> Thanks anyway mustard :)
[11:17] <Rikku> mustard5: openssh-client and openssh-server are two distinctly different packages.
[11:17] <mustard5> Rikku, yeah?
[11:17] <mustard5> Rikku, k so how do I connect then?
[11:18] <Rikku> mustard5: the client doesn't run any services.... install openssh-client then type 'ssh <computer you're connecting to> -l <username>'
[11:18] <Rikku> mustard5: in a termina
[11:18] <Rikku> l

[11:25] <familiaposadalal> give me a minute please

[11:27] <mustard5> Piddy, use the chmod command i would say
[11:27] <mustard5> Piddy, to give it executable permissions
[11:27] <Wammy|> AHA
[11:27] <Wammy|> mustard5, upgrading the kernel fixed the issue it seems
[11:27] <Wammy|> no errors on boot
[11:27] <Piddy> Lol, I am new in Ubuntu, i just got it.. What's a chmod?
[11:27] <mustard5> Wammy|, :)

[11:28] <mustard5> Piddy, ok so you know where the command line is?
[11:28] <ktogias> The machines I have found now on are pentium and pentium pro up to 200MHz with 32 to 94MB RAM
[11:28] <Seveas> !xgl
[11:28] <ubotu> XGL on Ubuntu: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/XglHowto - Join #ubuntu-xgl for all the XGL fun on Ubuntu systems. It works ONLY on dapper. Pretty videos on http://www.novell.com/linux/xglrelease/
[11:28] <Piddy> Yes
[11:28] <ktogias> I am going to install some flavor of linux on them. I use ubuntu on faster machines.
[11:28] <mustard5> Piddy, what directory is your file in?
[11:28] <Piddy> Desktop
[11:28] <ktogias> Google brougth to me info about ubuntu-lite and edubuntu-lite distros.
[11:28] <Wammy|> bah, nevermind spoke too soon
[11:28] <`sheep> i'll try
[11:28] <sebest_> Piddy, you can also right click on the file ,and choose property
[11:28] <megsona> thanks elkbuntu but i did - there are no entries
[11:28] <ktogias> Are they viable? Can I dist-upgrade an ubuntu sytem to ubuntu-lite changing the repositories?
[11:28] <`sheep> but yesterday it didn't work
[11:28] <Piddy> ok
[11:29] <mustard5> sebest_, well this is true :)
[11:29] <mustard5> hehe
[11:29] <elkbuntu> megsona did you at all at any stage log out of gnome and have 'save this session' checked?
[11:29] <ktogias> What kind, if any, of (ubuntu - edubuntu - xubuntu) would you sugest me to use?
[11:29] <Piddy> Should I just select properties the?
[11:29] <megsona> oh, possibley
[11:29] <mustard5> ktogias, xubuntu has a light interface
[11:30] <mustard5> ktogias, it uses the xfce window manager
[11:30] <doskowkd> this gnome xchat is useless heh...
[11:30] <familiaposadalal> yo_yo it says root (hd0,0)
[11:30] <megsona> should i delete the default session?
[11:30] <elkbuntu> megsona just close all the apps you dont want popping up on a login, and log out with the option checked again. see if that helps
[11:30] <Piddy> Om in the properties, what now?
[11:30] <Piddy> Im*
[11:30] <ktogias> mustard5, Edubuntu is based on gnome? Can I Have edubuntu with xfce?

[11:31] <Ashly> Whats really fakred is ISS worked fine
[11:31] <Ashly> Yes I miss spelled it on purpouse :)
[11:31] <mustard5> ktogias, hmm..I suppose you could, but I don't know how you would do it

[11:32] <Piddy> sebest_, Im in properties, now what?
[11:32] <familiaposadalal> no, I cant boot into windows
[11:32] <familiaposadalal> it gives me the option but it doesnt repond
[11:32] <Piddy> Guys, i really nedd a little more help here
[11:32] <familiaposadalal> respond
[11:33] <elkbuntu> ktogias if you know your way around ubuntu, you're probably better off doing a server install and just installing the packages you want. that way it's a completely customised system
[11:33] <mustard5> ktogias, there is a #edubuntu and #xubuntu channels too
[11:33] <Piddy> need*
[11:33] <yoyo_2> you have never booted windows before....
[11:33] <yoyo_2> ohhh I see... it gives you the option, windows doesn't seem to
[11:33] <mustard5> ktogias, this is probably the most populated though :)
[11:33] <ktogias> thanks guys!
[11:33] <yoyo_2> responde... ok, ok I got it
[11:33] <familiaposadalal> yes
[11:33] <Piddy> mustard5, Im in properties, now what?
[11:33] <mustard5> Piddy, one sec
[11:33] <Piddy> Ok
[11:34] <mustard5> Piddy, go to the 'Permissions' tab
[11:34] <Piddy> ok
[11:34] <mustard5> Piddy, tick the box marked 'executable' for you user
[11:34] <mustard5> Piddy, the 'owner' is you I take it
[11:34] <cyorxamp> Lo folks
[11:35] <candyman> hello everybody
[11:35] <cyorxamp> Have downloaded the nvidia drivers from the official site and they keep telling me I don't have a kernel interface - anyone know what that means and how to fix it???
[11:35] <candyman> how to install gaim ?
[11:35] <familiaposadalal> yoyo: whan can I do about it
[11:35] <yoyo_2> once I had something like that
[11:36] <mustard5> cyorxamp, I think you need to install the source for your kernel when you use those drivers
[11:36] <Piddy> mustard5, One problem.. I am using Norwegian as language.. There is nothing saying executable.. What is the box next to
[11:36] <cyorxamp> candyman, you can get that using the 'Add Applications'
[11:36] <Piddy> ?
[11:36] <yoyo_2> let's try if you can read the windows partition
[11:36] <Seveas> candyman, it's installed by default (applications  internet  gaim)
[11:36] <familiaposadalal> yes, I can map it within linux
[11:36] <yoyo_2> maybe it is some error in the entry point, but I would be windows specific
[11:36] <cyorxamp> mustard5, yeah I got the kernel 2.4 source - and also MAKE and LIBC6-dev  but yet it still moans
[11:36] <mustard5> Piddy, so what is the equivalent in Norwegian?
[11:36] <yoyo_2> ok
[11:36] <candyman> seveas Thanks alot
[11:36] <yoyo_2> so the partition seems ok, but the entry point
[11:36] <familiaposadalal> yes
[11:36] <yoyo_2> something in C:\windows\system32 could be corrupted
[11:37] <yoyo_2> I'll tell you what I did and it worked
[11:37] <Piddy> Is executalbe under "special flags"?
[11:37] <Piddy> mustard5, is executable under 'special flags'?
[11:38] <cyorxamp> what on earth is a kernel interface and how do I get one!?
[11:38] <familiaposadalal> ok
[11:38] <yoyo_2> I used my Windows CD to boot my pc
[11:38] <familiaposadalal> yes I did that
[11:38] <BlackJack21> algun espaol?

[11:40] <familiaposadalal> yes
[11:40] <yoyo_2> it's something like 'root list' i can't remember exactly
[11:40] <yoyo_2> yes Seveas
[11:41] <yoyo_2> windows couldn't detect any, but there's an option to fix the partition entry point
[11:41] <yoyo_2> to see a file in C:\windows\system32
[11:42] <Piddy> yoyo_2, in properties, is 'executable' under 'special flags'?

[11:56] <deepwoodz> is there anyway to get ubuntu-gnome to reinstall
[11:56] <equador> nothing
[11:56] <deepwoodz> i mean i just wanna reinstall that portion
[11:56] <mustard5> deepwoodz, I wonder whether you  should run sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop to check if everything was  installed
[11:57] <deepwoodz> yeah i think i need to
[11:57] <deepwoodz> imma do it
[11:57] <mustard5> deepwoodz, you might get instructions to do apt-get -f install if things are mucked up
[11:57] <allanh128> Hello.   We are running breezy badger.  We have created a raid 1 array acroos 3 identical disks using 10 gigs.   we installed ubuntu there and are now booted into the system.  we want to create a raid  5 array in the remaining free space accroos all three disks.  I have read through the software raid howto and several articles.  It is unclear to me however if I need to create the partitions on the device first then create the array. 
[11:57] <Piddy> mustard5, that's weird, it's not there!
[11:58] <Wammy|> ih ave a question
[11:58] <mustard5> Piddy, you sure you are on Hoary?
[11:58] <yoyo_2> complicated
[11:58] <Wammy|> why in the world do i have a /dev and a /.dev ?
[11:58] <mustard5> Piddy, look in Applications>>Accessories
[11:58] <Piddy> mustard5, yes..
[11:58] <mustard5> Wammy|, I have no idea :)
[11:58] <yoyo_2> yeahhh why?
[11:58] <Alexi5> ubuntu the great
[11:58] <mustard5> Wammy|, I am clueless about standard file structures
[11:59] <unikat``> I find women... please private me:}
[11:59] <Piddy> mustard5, there are no such thing as Accessories
[11:59] <mustard5> unikat``, this is a linux support channel
[11:59] <bimberi> Piddy: Applications -> System Tools -> Terminal ??
[11:59] <Piddy> mustard5, ok
[11:59] <Alexi5> does ubunutu thrash the file system like windows does
[11:59] <deepwoodz> tell me some stuff is messed up and to run apt-get -f install
[11:59] <deepwoodz> should i?
[12:00] <Seveas> Wammy|, /.dev is a backup of the static /dev
[12:00] <mustard5> deepwoodz, yep
[12:00] <deepwoodz> ok
[12:00] <Seveas>  /dev is now managed by udev
[12:00] <mustard5> deepwoodz, that tries to get missing packages
[12:00] <yoyo_2> ok, time to go
[12:00] <Wammy|> Seveas, ih had never seen that before.
[12:00] <yoyo_2> thanks everybody
[12:01] <deepwoodz> is there anyway to get the add software link back on my application bar under system tools
[12:01] <deepwoodz> i tried to instal gdebi
[12:01] <deepwoodz> n that wheree most my problems had occured
[12:01] <mustard5> deepwoodz, I would see if it comes back after this is all finished
[12:01] <mustard5> deepwoodz, see how it goes
[12:02] <deepwoodz> good lookin
[12:02] <deepwoodz> i appreciate it
[12:02] <mustard5> deepwoodz, you might need to restart X after you finish to see the menu changes
[12:02] <deepwoodz> ok
[12:02] <equador> how make xterm transparent, when icreating shortkut ?
[12:02] <o0> hello, i burned few drivers and other packages to cd in windows, but i can't find em in ubuntu bash. if i cd to /media/cdrom and try to list files it shows nothing. :\ what shuld be wrong? files are shown on cd in windows without a problem.
[12:03] <mustard5> o0, did the CD automount?
[12:03] <o0> automount? ;)
[12:03] <o0> i just copy em on it.
[12:03] <mustard5> o0, when you put the CD in, did an icon appear on the desktop?
[12:04] <Seveas> o0, do you perhaps have several cd drives?
[12:04] <mustard5> Seveas, good thought :)
[12:04] <o0> i have no several cd drives and there's no icon because i'm doing it in bash
[12:04] <o0> but when i cd /media/ there is cdrom and cdrom0
[12:04] <mustard5> o0, ok..so you need to mount the CD first
[12:04] <o0> but i only have one cd :)
[12:04] <Seveas> o0, is it mounted? (mount | grep cdrom)
[12:05] <o0> dunno
[12:05] <HR|Santa> Can any1 help me to setup mirror?
[12:05] <o0> you shuld tell me how to do that :>
[12:05] <mustard5> o0, do the command in brackets from Seveas
[12:05] <o0> jup, i'll use it
[12:05] <o0> anything else i need to know?
[12:05] <mustard5> o0, don't include the brackets though :)
[12:05] <mustard5> o0, yeah tell us what happens
[12:05] <o0> it's annoying to jump from one system to other every time i need to ask sth
[12:06] <Seveas> if that gives no output, try: mount /media/cdrom0
[12:06] <o0> because i currently have only one computer here
[12:06] <mustard5> o0, ah ok
[12:06] <o0> ok thanks
[12:07] <o0> brb
[12:07] <deepwoodz> do you know of a partition manament program for linux mustard
[12:07] <mustard5> deepwoodz, 'managemen' ?
[12:08] <mustard5> deepwoodz, what do you mean?  one that partitions stuff?
[12:08] <mustard5> deepwoodz, I'll assume you mean something like gparted
[12:09] <deepwoodz> yeah
[12:09] <mustard5> gparted is pretty friendly looking
[12:09] <deepwoodz> typo
[12:09] <deepwoodz> sorry
[12:09] <app> Hmmm...I was hanging on some ubuntu channel all morning, only to find out it was not on the right IRC network....
[12:09] <mustard5> app, hehe
[12:09] <mustard5> app, which channel?
[12:09] <Seveas> app, roflol :D
[12:09] <app> No wonder no one wrote anything there!
[12:10] <mustard5> app, well your in the right place now :)
[12:10] <Belea_> realtek tv tunner & ubuntu ?
[12:11] <Belea_> realtek extern tv tunner & ubuntu ? :)
[12:11] <deepwoodz> can u mount iso in ubuntu like in fedora core
[12:11] <app> Maybe it was some EFFNet or something, my Mirc has some defaults, and I don't remember setting them. You see, I am not a hc IRC user, and I tent to do 12 things at the same time.
[12:11] <Syns> do i need a 32fat partition for wine?
[12:11] <mustard5> deepwoodz, yeah...I'm can't remember the command though :)
[12:11] <deepwoodz> oh ok ill do some research
[12:14] <Seveas> deepwoodz, sure, mount -o loop /path/to/iso /path/to/mountpoint
[12:14] <twa1296> i have a dual-boot setup, ext3 and ntfs, how can i resize the ntfs and make a 3rd fat32 partition?
[12:14] <Piddy> mustard5, ok now I have downloaded azureus but how can i install/open it?
[12:14] <mustard5> !azureus
[12:14] <ubotu> methinks azureus is a popular bittorent client written in Java, installation instructions can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AzureusHowTo
[12:14] <bigfoot1> is there a way to searh through my terminal's "command history"?
[12:14] <bigfoot1> search, not browse
[12:15] <Hobbsee> bigfoot1: sure, history | grep foo
[12:15] <Piddy> !azureus
[12:15] <ubotu> I heard azureus is a popular bittorent client written in Java, installation instructions can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AzureusHowTo
[12:15] <bigfoot1> Hobbsee: thanks. one more question. how long will stuff stay in history?
[12:15] <mustard5> Piddy, I just read that..no clues :)
[12:15] <Hobbsee> bigfoot1: last 500 commands - havent found a way to change that yet
[12:15] <mustard5> Piddy, I assume it either in the menus or you type azureus in terminal
[12:15] <app> bigfoot1, hit C-r in Bash
[12:16] <bigfoot1> app: what's that you say?
[12:16] <deepwoodz> thanx mane
[12:16] <bigfoot1> i don't understand, sorry.
[12:16] <app> Hit Control-r, and you can incrementally search back the history, Emacs style.
[12:16] <deepwoodz> installing gparted wont mess up my ubuntu will it?
[12:16] <Piddy> mustard5, ok.. but i have to go.. bye
[12:16] <deepwoodz> as far as gnome
[12:16] <mustard5> Piddy, k..take care
[12:16] <bigfoot1> app; is bash same as terminal?
[12:17] <app> bigfoot1, yes, basically
[12:17] <mustard5> deepwoodz, its a gnome app
[12:17] <bigfoot1> app, is there a way we can have unlimited saving of our history, and not just last 500 commands as Hobbsee says?
[12:17] <mustard5> deepwoodz, hence the 'g' at the start :)
[12:17] <deepwoodz> lol o
[12:17] <deepwoodz> ok
[12:17] <deepwoodz> just making sure
[12:17] <suryam> yaaaaaay!!! i found the damn bug after like 7 hours of debugging.. wooohooo XD
[12:17] <app> You can set the limit to any number by adjusting environment variable, i think HISTSIZE
[12:17] <mustard5> deepwoodz, thats ok...better to ask
[12:17] <bigfoot1> how do i stop a command I'm running in terminal?
[12:17] <suryam> wou wou wou! yessss
[12:18] <bigfoot1> hitting control Q doesn't seem to wokr
[12:18] <Hobbsee> bigfoot1: ctrl + c
[12:18] <Wammy|> ctrl-c
[12:18] <deepwoodz> so wut are these live cds i keep runnin across
[12:18] <deepwoodz> sorta like a bootable os?
[12:18] <bigfoot1> Wammy|: Hobbsee: hmmm interesting. i wonder why it isn't the letter Q (for quit).
[12:18] <Wammy|> yeah
[12:18] <bigfoot1> I guess C stands for cancel
[12:18] <mustard5> deepwoodz, the same as your rescue CD but with more operating system to them
[12:19] <deepwoodz> oh ok
[12:19] <mustard5> deepwoodz, gui interface etc
[12:19] <deepwoodz> thatz wut i thought
[12:19] <Wammy|> i think ctrl+c was made because its quick to hit those 2 keys at a timd
[12:19] <mustard5> deepwoodz, the ubuntu live CD is the same as the install....gnome and stuff
[12:19] <twa1296> any alternatives to gcombust?
[12:19] <willvarfar> 	printf("%d,%d /2\n",end.tms_utime-start.tms_utime,end.tms_stime-start.tms_stime);
[12:19] <willvarfar> oops
[12:20] <deepwoodz> oh ok
[12:20] <deepwoodz> the more i use
[12:20] <bigfoot1> anybody here use iTunes?
[12:20] <deepwoodz> ubuntu the more i like it better than linusx
[12:20] <deepwoodz> linux*
[12:20] <deepwoodz> i mean
[12:20] <deepwoodz> windows
[12:20] <mustard5> deepwoodz, better than windows you mean??
[12:20] <Wammy|> ubuntu is linux...
[12:20] <deepwoodz> lol yeah i been up
[12:20] <deepwoodz> for a long time
[12:20] <deepwoodz> im trippin
[12:20] <Wammy|> me too :P
[12:21] <mustard5> deepwoodz, hehe
[12:21] <Wammy|> if only i could get sound to work on laptop
[12:21] <mustard5> deepwoodz, more coffe needed :)
[12:21] <Wammy|> i dont care about anything else!
[12:21] <mustard5> *coffee
[12:21] <deepwoodz> but, i cant figure out how to compile these damn xbox360 controller
[12:21] <zax1> can any one help with gnome issues ?
[12:21] <deepwoodz> linux driver
[12:21] <willvarfar> howdy folks; I've installed gcc4.0, but when I compile from the command line it complains that it can't find stdio.h nor any other headers I'd expect; I can't find them in an exhaustive search of the harddisk either; what package should I install to get them?
[12:21] <deepwoodz> i even got the damn instructions
[12:21] <deepwoodz> i was like wth
[12:21] <osfameron> willvarfar: build-essential ?
[12:21] <mustard5> willvarfar, the kernel headers maybe?
[12:21] <deepwoodz> i havent been using linux very long
[12:22] <deepwoodz> im gettin the hang of it tho
[12:22] <mustard5> osfameron, ah yes...good thought
[12:22] <mustard5> willvarfar, sudo apt-get install build-essential    might be it
[12:22] <zax1> how do i change resolution ? how do i configure the desktop to the way i want it ? fonts wall paper screen saver refresh rate and stuff like that
[12:22] <willvarfar> aha, build-essential sounds very promising
[12:22] <willvarfar> will try, thx!
[12:22] <osfameron> actually, that probably includes gcc :-)
[12:22] <cyorxamp> has anyone in here used a nvidia card with ubuntu???? I am having alot of problems could use any and all assistance
[12:22] <zax1>  i know how to do it on my KUBUNTU unit, but the UBUNTU doesnt seem to have it
[12:23] <mustard5> zax1, well fonts and themes are in your System>>Preferences
[12:23] <d351GuJu> which nvidia card do u have cyorxamp?
[12:23] <cyorxamp> d351GuJu, nvidia geforce 64mb
[12:23] <mustard5> zax1, as is resolution and screensaver
[12:23] <d351GuJu> exactly what model?
[12:23] <d351GuJu> 5200?
[12:23] <zax1> is there no concentrated place to deal with all things desktop ?
[12:23] <app> Ubuntu is great, the best Linux, but still not a best business choice for 99% of the corporate Windows users...
[12:23] <cyorxamp> d351GuJu, not quite sure
[12:23] <zax1> mustard, r u sure , i cant see it there
[12:23] <deepwoodz> yeah
[12:23] <zax1> i am using ubuntu 5.10
[12:23] <GeorgeAScott> so i'm really happy with my setup now... i just wish firefox wouldn't crash so much.  anybody know of a fix for it?
[12:24] <d351GuJu> hmm, have u downloaded the drivers from nvidia website and followed the instructions?
[12:24] <cyorxamp> d351GuJu, I have the ubuntu repo drivers intstalled and enabled I think - but I need to know what the config program is (i.e. like ATI is fglrx-config)
[12:24] <cyorxamp> need to enabled tv out
[12:24] <willvarfar> build-essential did the trick! thx
[12:24] <cyorxamp> *enable
[12:24] <mustard5> zax1, its certainly there on my install
[12:24] <deepwoodz> i need to figure out how to bridge my
[12:24] <thefish> GeorgeAScott: you could try version 1.5
[12:24] <deepwoodz> wireless n ethernet
[12:24] <deepwoodz> togethert
[12:24] <GeorgeAScott> thefish: i have 1.5
[12:24] <deepwoodz> i larned how to do it on windows
[12:24] <deepwoodz> learned*
[12:24] <d351GuJu> you might wanna install latest drivers instead if your gfx is new
[12:24] <zax1> well its alphabetical - and after "removable.." comes screen saver, so no resolution
[12:25] <thefish> GeorgeAScott: not sure then, mine has been fine - not one error
[12:25] <zax1> do
[12:25] <GeorgeAScott> mine crashes once about every 30 to 60 minutes
[12:25] <zax1> sorry for being an AS***le , screen resolution
[12:25] <zax1> found it
[12:25] <mustard5> zax1, :)
[12:25] <cyorxamp> any ideas?
[12:26] <xordae> hey, little problem.. after installing firefox 32bit for flash and java, ALL checkboxes in gnome disappeared (using 64 bit system)
[12:26] <app> Also, I would not recommend any Linux for most of my aquaintances. If they count the hours spent fiddling with Linux and not doing professional, accountable work, Linux becomes quite expensive, quite fast.
[12:26] <mustard5> cyorxamp, nvidia-settings?
[12:26] <cyorxamp> yeah
[12:26] <d351GuJu> cyorxamp, check the msg
[12:26] <noway> Hi im getting the common core pointer error (mouse) with kernel 2.6.15 ,however, when I run 2.6.8 I dont get this error when trying startx,...If found in google to change somelines in x86 but is also not working for me
[12:26] <osfameron> app++
[12:26] <cyorxamp> well the repo drivers will do
[12:26] <d351GuJu> cyorxamp, yeah nvidia-settings will do
[12:26] <Wammy|> wtf @ app
[12:26] <deepwoodz> is ther an apt-get command for gentools?
[12:26] <cyorxamp> that doesnt do anything when I run it
[12:26] <o0> hello! :) back! well, i did mount the cdrom and i copied the driver to /home/myusername/. but there's something else i want to know: some instructions says i must use command "sudo apt-get xorg-driver-fglrx". well, i downloaded that driver with name "xorg-driver-fglrx-dev_6.8.0-8.8.25-0ubuntu11_i386.deb". i tried both ways, "sudo apt-get xorg-driver-fglrx" and "sudo apt-get xorg-driver-fglrx-dev_6.8.0-8.8.25-0ubuntu11_i386.deb".
[12:27] <o0> the problem is that in both cases it says that this file is missing.
[12:27] <cyorxamp> well it does - it bring up this GUI thing - but theres like only 3 options
[12:27] <cyorxamp> virtually nothing
[12:27] <d351GuJu> right, that's all it has, let me check mine
[12:27] <mustard5> o0, installing locally you use the dpkg -i  <filename.deb>
[12:27] <d351GuJu> no wait, i have like 10 options
[12:27] <gnomefreak> noway check bug reports and you can also try #ubuntu+1
[12:27] <mustard5> o0, put sudo in front too
[12:28] <o0> mustard5 when i used dpkg -i command it says i must be superuser
[12:28] <cyorxamp> d351GuJu, mustard5 - is nvidia-settings supposed to only have 4 check boxes?
[12:28] <o0> but dunno where to change that, of course i have root password.
[12:28] <noway> but its a common problem...
[12:28] <noway> ok
[12:28] <app> What is this "#ubuntu+1"?
[12:28] <Wammy|> o0, dont read every other line
[12:28] <Wammy|> he said put sudo in front of it.
[12:28] <mustard5> o0, sudo dpkg -i packagname.deb   then.....put in your user password
[12:28] <gnomefreak> noway: dapper is not been released yet ubuntu+1 is a dapper help channel
[12:29] <GeorgeAScott> is there a way to take dual monitor screen shots? cause i'm a dork
[12:29] <app> And dapper is...?
[12:29] <d351GuJu> cyorxamp, i have total of 10 settings
[12:29] <cyorxamp> d351GuJu, why is mine just 4?!!
[12:29] <Ng> !dapper
[12:29] <ubotu> from memory, dapper is pre-release name for next edition of Ubuntu, release name 6.04. Due 20th April. It is Development Software - May Break! >/join #ubuntu+1< for IRC Use  http://tinyurl.com/rtgxo for easy updates
[12:29] <thefish> app: its the next ubuntu version
[12:29] <d351GuJu> cyorxamp, and the checkboxes are in most of them totalling up to 8
[12:29] <gnomefreak> app: dapper is the next version of ubuntu that has not been released yet
[12:29] <mustard5> cyorxamp, sounds like something is amiss with your install then
[12:29] <noway> uff my god!
[12:29] <cyorxamp> well I just installed the ones from the repo's and enabled them as instructed
[12:29] <osfameron>  bah, I've left it so long to upgrade to breezy I may as well upgrade to dapper instead
[12:29] <d351GuJu> cyorxamp, yeah have u check the ubuntuforums.org website's tutorial on how to install latest drivers?
[12:30] <mustard5> cyorxamp, when you ran sudo nvidia-glx-config enable   what did it say?
[12:30] <cyorxamp> yes I followed the tutorial
[12:30] <cyorxamp> mustard5, it said it had been done
[12:30] <app> What's the biggest singel change in "dapper", if any?
[12:30] <zax1> does any one know if KONTACT will work on ubuntu ?
[12:30] <mustard5> cyorxamp, run it again and read it again just to check
[12:30] <d351GuJu> cyorxamp, have u check the xorg file?
[12:30] <gnomefreak> newer packages
[12:30] <noway> newer kernel also?
[12:30] <mustard5> cyorxamp, sometimes it says that it couldnt modify the file
[12:31] <zax1> is it my imagination or is kubuntu much faster ?
[12:31] <fnord___> q
[12:31] <berkes> hello,
[12:31] <gnomefreak> noway: yes of course
[12:31] <d351GuJu> hey berkes
[12:31] <noway> lol sorry
[12:31] <cyorxamp> mustard5, doesnt return anything just thinks then returns me to the prompt
[12:31] <berkes> i mage a hung process, and neither killalll, nor kill -9 nor renice will chane anything :/
[12:31] <berkes> any hints?
[12:31] <mustard5> cyorxamp, have you restarted x too?  and seen the white screen with nvidia logo?
[12:31] <cyorxamp> not seen a nvidia logo
[12:31] <cyorxamp> but I have
[12:31] <berkes> s/i mage/i have/
[12:32] <cyorxamp> restarted x several times
[12:32] <noway> is anyone tired of debian-overflow ?
[12:32] <mustard5> cyorxamp, k..well something is amiss...look in xorg.conf and see if its marked as 'nvidia' instead of 'nv'
[12:32] <gnomefreak> noway: the problems you are having with dapper are more than likely dapper no you or your hardware this are going to change nad break for the next month
[12:32] <peeters> help, ubuntu 5.10 don't find any network device on my machine... and I have both also wireless
[12:32] <noway> ok i also think that tx
[12:33] <cyorxamp> mustard5, do you have a paste bin link?  i'll just put it on there
[12:33] <folki> can anybody write me how can i add new directory at beginning of PATH?
[12:33] <mustard5> cyorxamp, k..one sec
[12:33] <mustard5> !pastebin
[12:33] <ubotu> pastebin is, like, totally, a site where you can post large texts and screenshots so you don't flood the channel. You can find it at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org - Install webboard for easy pasting from the gnome taskbar :)
[12:34] <mustard5> cyorxamp, see ubotu post above
[12:34] <alanon> ive just installed ubuntu, but, when im done installing the screen goes black, and the install didnt give me an option to set the root password so i can go in and look for trouble... help?
[12:34] <gnomefreak> folki: the command is mkdir but i dont get what you mean by beginning of path
[12:35] <Wammy|> gnomefreak, i think he means to add something to $PATH
[12:35] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell alanon about root
[12:35] <Ng> folki: either ~/.bashrc or ~/.bash_profile
[12:35] <gnomefreak> ah that makes more sense :(
[12:35] <folki> $PATH is system variable, I think and I need to add new dir there
[12:35] <cyorxamp> mustard5, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9620
[12:35] <Ng> gnomefreak: $PATH is the environment variable that controls where things look for binaries
[12:35] <mustard5> cyorxamp, got it
[12:36] <gnomefreak> ng i knew that but he didnt have $path typed there
[12:36] <mustard5> cyorxamp, see this part? Driver                "nv"
[12:36] <o0> mustard5, wammy|: so "sudo apt-get xorg-driver-fglrx" is not needed=? i'm doing exactly what instructions says ( http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=423589 )

[12:36] <Feerx> Anyone know a good page for SED? Tryed to google but all the pages i find is crap
[12:36] <peeters> how can I fix it?
[12:36] <cyorxamp> mustard5, ok will that give me more settings?
[12:37] <Wammy|> o0, dpkg -i <file>
[12:37] <mustard5> cyorxamp, that will use the nvidia drivers you just installed
[12:37] <mustard5> cyorxamp, that will make nvidia-settings work
[12:37] <eyedol59> how can i see a .deb package dependencies from the console?
[12:37] <mustard5> o0, yeah..apt-get is for installing from the online repositories...dpkg if for installing locally
[12:37] <berkes> no-one here who can help me with my hanging process?
[12:38] <mustard5> o0, you are installing the files you just downloaded arernt' you?
[12:38] <Ng> eyedol59: dpkg-deb -I foo.deb
[12:38] <cyorxamp> mustard5, restarting....
[12:38] <mustard5> cyorxamp, make sure you use the double quotes "    I was showing you examples with single quotes...
[12:38] <mustard5> doh
[12:39] <peeters> any one can help me with problems installing ubuntu on my acer8200?
[12:39] <bigfoot1> what program do you recommend to change a WAV to MP3? audactiy?
[12:39] <mustard5> peeters, I'm not too good with networking...what type of connection?
[12:39] <Ng> berkes: what process is it?
[12:39] <Wammy|> peeters, check lspci
[12:40] <mustard5> peeters, you have no X either?
[12:40] <Wammy|> ive got an acer travelmate that im working with right now,
[12:40] <peeters> mustard5: no X
[12:40] <mustard5> peeters, what type of graphics card?
[12:40] <peeters> and no network
[12:40] <mustard5> Wammy|, you two should get together ;
[12:40] <mustard5> hehe
[12:40] <peeters> mustard5: ATI Mobility Radeon X1600 512MB
[12:40] <Wammy|> the only issue ive got is with the damn soundcard
[12:40] <eyedol59> Ng:thank you very much :)
[12:41] <mustard5> peeters, ah ok..it might be having trouble with your card
[12:41] <mustard5> peeters, do you get a command line?
[12:41] <peeters> on a Acer Travelmate 8200 Dual core
[12:41] <berkes> Ng its mencoder.
[12:41] <mustard5> peeters, does it drop you to a login prompt for command line?
[12:41] <peeters> mustard5: almost a command line, one moment
[12:42] <berkes> Ng, I have a feeling its hanging on the dvd:// part, that somehow it cannot red the DVD or so
[12:42] <mustard5> peeters, k
[12:42] <peeters> mustard5: yes yesterday it did
[12:42] <gnomefreak> should i shut the mobo video card off when installing a geforce?
[12:42] <peeters> mustard5: I try to install it again, it is booting for the first time now
[12:42] <mustard5> peeters, k..well when you get to that command line..enter this... sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg....
[12:42] <Ng> berkes: well, if you do a "ps auwx" and check out its STAT column - if it says D then it's hung inside a kernel operation and is therefore unkillable
[12:42] <mustard5> peeters, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[12:43] <mustard5> peeters, it will start a dialog...
[12:43] <berkes> hah, guess what, NG, the dvd player found its track, and is now spinning, then it stopped! and i could kill the proc.
[12:43] <peeters> ok I will try it
[12:43] <mustard5> peeters, if you don't know the answers to any questions...choose the default answer given
[12:43] <mustard5> peeters, change the driver to 'vesa'
[12:43] <Ng> berkes: that sounds about right then, while it was inside the kernel trying to read the disc you wouldn't have been able to kill it
[12:43] <mustard5> peeters, that last part is the important part...vesa drivers is what you need to try
[12:44] <Wammy|> alright, ive been up all night, tis 7am, im going to sleep. laterz all
[12:44] <mustard5> Wammy|, night..good luck tomorrow
[12:44] <peeters> mustard5: ok, thX I will try it and let you know
[12:44] <mustard5> peeters, k
[12:44] <Fracture> hi
[12:44] <cyorxamp> hey mustard5
[12:44] <Fracture> is there any way to display a custom menu as a panel applet ?
[12:44] <mustard5> cyorxamp, yeah?
[12:45] <cyorxamp> mustard5, all I get is fatal error 104
[12:45] <cyorxamp> gone back to nv now
[12:45] <berkes> Ng: makes sense
[12:45] <mustard5> cyorxamp, wait a tick
[12:45] <Fracture> I can see the "Menu Bar" and "Main Menu" applets in "Add to Panel" but I can't select a custom menu tree to use
[12:45] <mustard5> cyorxamp, when you changed it..did you use the double quotes "nvidia"  or single quotes 'nvidia'
[12:46] <cyorxamp> i used whatever quotes were already there
[12:46] <mustard5> cyorxamp, ah ok
[12:46] <mustard5> cyorxamp, can your try this....
[12:46] <mustard5> cyorxamp, you in command line atm?  with no X
[12:46] <cyorxamp> no I don't know of a command line irc client
[12:46] <colm> irssi
[12:46] <mustard5> cyorxamp, k.. it  irssi
[12:46] <cyorxamp> irssi?
[12:47] <mustard5> cyorxamp, for the future anyway :)
[12:47] <cyorxamp> k
[12:47] <mustard5> cyorxamp, irssi is the command line irc client
[12:47] <Ng> is a command line client, there are plenty of others :)
[12:47] <mustard5> Ng, :)
[12:48] <mustard5> Ng, well this one is already installed :)
[12:48] <cyorxamp> mustard5, so do you want me to speak to you on that now
[12:48] <cyorxamp> ?
[12:48] <mustard5> cyorxamp, no its just if you end up there again
[12:48] <mustard5> cyorxamp, i'm thinking of something else atm
[12:48] <cyorxamp> ok, so did you have a suggestion?
[12:48] <mustard5> cyorxamp, I'm wondering if you should do this with X stopped
[12:49] <cyorxamp> what? alter a file?
[12:49] <mustard5> cyorxamp, ctrl + alt + f1 will take you to command line
[12:49] <mustard5> cyorxamp, from there you could shut down X
[12:49] <mustard5> cyorxamp, then do a reconfigure
[12:49] <cyorxamp_> ok mustard5 I am now on irssi
[12:49] <mustard5> cyorxamp, k..you on command line now I take it?
[12:50] <cyorxamp_> yup :P
[12:50] <mustard5> cyorxamp, sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[12:50] <cyorxamp_> can I quickly access the command prompt while leaving irssi open?
[12:50] <mustard5> cyorxamp, ctrl + alt + f2 for another terminal
[12:50] <KakiPukul> up to f6...
[12:51] <mustard5> cyorxamp, ctrl + alt + f1 to get back :)
[12:51] <frixer> why doesn't a line like 1 0 * * * invoke-rc.d hlstats start
[12:51] <frixer> work in cron?
[12:51] <cyorxamp_> ok stopped now mustard5
[12:51] <cyorxamp_> although I think it was already stopped
[12:51] <mustard5> cyorxamp, k...  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg     choose nvidia drivers
[12:52] <cyorxamp_> thats it! i kept typing xfree86 (thinking back to debian)
[12:52] <mustard5> cyorxamp, hehehe
[12:53] <subsonic> hello
[12:53] <cyorxamp_> hey mustard5 can u accept pm's?
[12:54] <subsonic> anyone up to help an ubuntu noob?
[12:54] <KakiPukul> sure ask the question
[12:54] <Ilokaasu> subsonic: just ask, someone will help if possible
[12:54] <mustard5> cyorxamp, yep
[12:55] <subsonic> ok, it's very simple and I looked in some guides already
[12:55] <mustard5> cyorxamp, from registerd users it might be though
[12:55] <cyorxamp_> mustard5: ah yeah I forgot one sec
[12:55] <subsonic> ok lol, I dl firefox 1.5.0.1.tar.gz
[12:55] <sylvan> Hmm.. I just installed Dapper using the flight 4 CD... So uh.. what's the default username and password? The installer didn't ask me and now I can't get past the login screen...
[12:56] <subsonic> but I cant seem to grasp the concept of installing things
[12:56] <Ng> sylvan: that sounds like you hit a bug, it should definitely have asked you
[12:56] <mustard5> sylvan, are you on the live CD ?
[12:56] <mustard5> sylvan, thats pretty strange really
[12:56] <cyorxamp_> mustard5: how do I move around 'act's ?
[12:56] <sylvan> I installed it over an earlier version (breezy)
[12:56] <elkbuntu> sylvan, if you installed, try ubuntu ubuntu?
[12:56] <sylvan> no not the live CD
[12:56] <sylvan> okay I'll try that..
[12:57] <mustard5> cyorxamp, accounts?
[12:57] <sylvan> I'll reboot and be back ina sec
[12:57] <vasser> hello
[12:57] <mustard5> cyorxamp, on irssi?
[12:57] <wrong^> what do you guys think, can i make a gameserver with ubuntu ? will it work ok ?
[12:57] <mustard5> cyorxamp, I can't remember how it works :)
[12:57] <KakiPukul> wrong^: : you can...
[12:57] <vasser> which repository do i need to add in order to have xserver-xgl ?
[12:57] <cyorxamp_> mustard5: ok I worked it out
[12:58] <cyorxamp_> mustard5: are you not identified on nickserv?
[12:58] <KakiPukul> technically with any OS you can, wrong^
[12:58] <mustard5> cyorxamp, I'm identified
[12:58] <mustard5> let me try to PM you
[12:58] <cyorxamp_> hmm I need my nick to be cyorxamp not cyorxamp_ to identify
[12:58] <cyorxamp_> can I kill xchat if its still running?
[12:58] <peeters> mustard5: I tryed vesa and I've X now
[12:58] <mustard5> peeters, well done
[12:59] <subsonic> anyone?
[12:59] <peeters> mustard5: but no ethernet :-(
[12:59] <mustard5> peeters, I'll be a minute...
[12:59] <peeters> musttard5: when I try lspci - a lot of unknown devices
[12:59] <peeters> mustard5: ok
[12:59] <o0> I need help (again)! ;) dpkg: depedency problems prevent configuration of xorg-driver-fglrx-dev: xorg-driver-fglrx depends on xorg-driver-fglrx (= 6.8.0-8.8.25-0ubuntu11); however: Package xorg-driver-fglrx is not installed. dpkg: error proccessing xorg-driver-fglrx-dev (--install): depedency problems - leaving unconfigured. Errors were encountered while proccessing: xorg-driver-fglrx-dev
[12:59] <o0> what to do now? :O
[12:59] <cyorxamp_> mustard5: is there a way of killing xchat from here if its still running occupying the 'cyorxamp' nick
[01:00] <mustard5> cyorxamp, ummm...yeah I suppose
[01:01] <mustard5> cyorxamp, you could find its pid and use kill command
[01:01] <subsonic> top
[01:01] <KakiPukul> o0: : do 'apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx xorg-driver-fglrx-dev'then
[01:01] <mustard5> cyorxamp, look for the pid with top
[01:01] <cyorxamp_> how ?
[01:01] <mustard5> subsonic, whats the kill command syntax?
[01:01] <subsonic> type /top
[01:01] <mustard5> cyorxamp, open a new terminal and type top
[01:01] <subsonic> it's kill <number>
[01:02] <cyorxamp_> right gotcha
[01:02] <cyorxamp_> why is it called top?
 is numer of app
[01:02] <subsonic> dunno lol, why not?
[01:02] <mustard5> cyorxamp, that list the top process using the cpu etc
[01:02] <cyorxamp_> its gone!
[01:02] <cyorxamp_> i'm so good :P
[01:02] <sylvan> well ubuntu/ubuntu didn't work...
[01:03] <mustard5> Cyorxamp, hehe
[01:03] <shiv> my wireless shows error on the panel bar but the internet is working fine. how do i fix it?
[01:03] <KakiPukul> didn't work for what?
[01:03] <sylvan> Is there any easy way to get in and add a user using the installer or something?
[01:03] <subsonic> ok, anyone.... how do i install this firefox-1.5.0.1.tar.gz on my desktop??
[01:03] <KakiPukul> sylvan: : yes, use synaptic
[01:03] <sylvan> KakiPukul, the installer didn't ask me for a username/password, and now I can't get through the login-screen
[01:03] <sylvan> KakiPukul, I have to log in to do that
[01:04] <KakiPukul> sylvan:  I think you missed that somehow....
[01:04] <sylvan> How could I miss it?
[01:04] <KakiPukul> you must have continously pressin g <Enter> :)
[01:04] <sylvan> nope...
[01:04] <KakiPukul> yeah
[01:04] <KakiPukul> I think that you overloooked... somehow
[01:05] <gnomefreak> ok is there a such thing as a pci geforce card? the fx5200 wont plug in anywhere :(
[01:05] <KakiPukul> or is it really the install fault, you should do a bug report then...
[01:05] <sylvan> It may be a bug.. The only thing I did that probalby isn't standard is that I aborted the installation because I realised I had forgotten to format the partition I was installing to, so I went back to that step in the "list" that comes up when you cancel, fixed the partition and then continued from there.. Maybe something there is buggy
[01:05] <KakiPukul> gnomefreak: L yours an AGP?
[01:05] <subsonic> gnomefreak, I got a fx5200 too. it works
[01:05] <colm> !tell subsonic -about firefox1.5
[01:05] <subsonic> mine is agp
[01:06] <gnomefreak> agp = 3 small slots than thats what i bought :(
[01:06] <DigitalGheko> gnomefreak, there's pci-e =D
[01:06] <KakiPukul> sylvan: |: anyways, i didn;t encounter any bugs or missed an installation step using Dapper
[01:06] <DigitalGheko> pci-express / sli
[01:06] <gnomefreak> DigitalGheko: will that plug into the white pci slot?
[01:06] <DigitalGheko> agp is practicly defunct now
[01:06] <DigitalGheko> no it wont... completely different tech
[01:07] <DigitalGheko> how old is the system board?
[01:07] <gnomefreak> i have big brown ports and pci ports thats it
[01:07] <KakiPukul> AGP isn't defunct... it still kicks on
[01:07] <DigitalGheko> sli > agp ;] 
[01:07] <jackol> pci isn't big and brown :P
[01:07] <DigitalGheko> lol
[01:07] <gnomefreak> DigitalGheko: its not new iv had it  awhile
[01:07] <gnomefreak> jackol: yes i know that
[01:07] <DigitalGheko> prolly don't have pci-e then... =[
[01:07] <KakiPukul> I really suggest taht you read the manual,
[01:08] <KakiPukul> does your mobo even have pci-E?
[01:08] <itshare> hi
[01:08] <gnomefreak> no it doesnt
[01:08] <DigitalGheko> reading the man isn't going to help much if you got an old board without sli/pci-e and you got an sli / pci-e gpu =P
[01:08] <subsonic> my agp fx5200 works and I even broke it with the vacuumcleaner
[01:08] <KakiPukul> why the heck you bought a pci-e card?
[01:08] <pschulz01> Anyone know how I can get a custom program to run when I plug in a USb device?
[01:08] <gnomefreak> KakiPukul: im not sure this is a pci-e card at this point
[01:08] <KakiPukul> pschulz01: : we can do that on Windows...
[01:09] <pschulz01> KakiPukul: Wha?
[01:09] <DigitalGheko> pschulz01, he's tryinto take you back to the dark side
[01:09] <KakiPukul> not in any GNU/Linux though
[01:09] <peeters> how can I see my ethernet card device with lspci?
[01:09] <gnomefreak> as i was asking is there pci cards that i should be looking for with nvidia?
[01:10] <gnomefreak> peeters: it should show it with that command
[01:10] <DigitalGheko> gnomefreak, no such thing anymore...only agp / sli / pci-e
[01:10] <KakiPukul> yes, peeters: there should be the word Ethernet controller when you install the card properly... and enabled it
[01:10] <peeters> gnomefreak: Intel Corp Unknown device
[01:10] <mustard5_> Cyorxamp, doh..my internet connection died
[01:10] <pschulz01> DigitalGheko: I have been MS-Win free since Linux 2.0
[01:10] <DigitalGheko> =] 
[01:11] <KakiPukul> well, I still use windows and GNU/Linux
[01:11] <pschulz01> DigitalGheko: The information on 'hotplug' is geared (as far as I can see) on setting up modules..
[01:11] <DigitalGheko> anyone know off-hand if vmware supports dx9c?
[01:11] <peeters> gnomefreak: I installed ubuntu 5.10 on my new Acer 8200 laptop but I've no echternet
[01:11] <KakiPukul> which version of VM?
[01:12] <DigitalGheko> 5.5
[01:12] <KakiPukul> the GNU/Linux? or the Windows?
[01:12] <liquidindian> Does anyone know how to fix the full screen mode in mplayer?
[01:12] <tecs> hi how can i safely remove my ipood? so i just can charge it without the harddrives spinning
[01:12] <KakiPukul> DigitalGheko: : you should read that on VMWare's site
[01:12] <DigitalGheko> suppose i should... just too lazy and their site is slower than a 2400bps bulletin board
[01:13] <ppo2> hi, then i change volume in xmms, mic record turn on according kmix is this normal ?
[01:13] <peeters> In need specail drivers to make my ethernet running?
[01:13] <dbrouwer> hi all
[01:13] <peeters> Do I need .. sorry
[01:13] <KakiPukul> well, for Windows, I think 5/5 supports DX9c via VMTools
[01:13] <DigitalGheko> peeters, you shouldn't have to...
[01:13] <KakiPukul> ppo2: : yes...
[01:13] <KakiPukul> if you use the same sound output./..
[01:13] <ppo2> ok, thanks
[01:14] <peeters> DigitalGheko: ubuntu does not support my hardware?
[01:14] <gnomefreak> i dont want an ati card again :(
[01:14] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell peeters about hardware
[01:14] <KakiPukul> well, I want ATi cards... newer ones like x600
[01:14] <dbrouwer> quick question. If i want to extract a rpm file i use alien, but i have to sudo the command. this ends up making a root read/write folder out of the extracted program, how do i sudo alien -k name-of-package.rpm and have it accessible to all users?
[01:14] <gnomefreak> peeters: look there to see
[01:14] <DigitalGheko> peeters, check in the System -> Administration -> Networking
[01:14] <gnomefreak> KakiPukul: i have 2 ati cards and 3d doesnt work on either
[01:14] <DigitalGheko> is there any eth0 devices listed?
[01:15] <KakiPukul> that's yours :)
[01:15] <peeters> no
[01:15] <majd> hey
[01:15] <KakiPukul> mine is like 2 years already and run fine...
[01:15] <majd> how can i install a .bin program?
[01:15] <gnomefreak> KakiPukul: whats  cheap good ati card that ubuntu auto detects?
[01:15] <peeters> I tryed /sbin/ifconfig
[01:15] <peeters> no eth0
[01:15] <gnomefreak> majd: you run them normally not install
[01:15] <KakiPukul> try 9600 or lower...
[01:15] <peeters> no eth1 for wireless
[01:15] <gnomefreak> KakiPukul: ok ty

[01:16] <KakiPukul> need the latest xorg driver, especially dapper's
[01:16] <jan__> hi, can someone give me a tip on how to make firestarter start with the system?
[01:16] <gnomefreak> KakiPukul: im running dapper
[01:16] <tecs> how do i umount a device completely? a usb device?
[01:16] <al-fa> hi, may i join
[01:16] <DigitalGheko> jan__, it should do that anyway?
[01:16] <peeters> DigitalGheko: device manager?
[01:17] <KakiPukul> well, it should work... I don't have 9600 or higher, but my friends do, and dappers works fine on their PCs
[01:17] <DigitalGheko> peeters, System -> Administration -> Device Manager
[01:17] <jan__> DigitalGheko, ok, so its running in the background anyways? it is atleast not visible to me before starting it manyally
[01:17] <KakiPukul> mine only a 9200 Pro... easier...
[01:17] <peeters> DigitalGheko: no, I see a lot of Unknown
[01:18] <DigitalGheko> jan__, check the tray... you should see a little blue icon for Firestarter
[01:18] <DigitalGheko> peeters, check for the nic under the unknowns
[01:18] <KakiPukul> peeters: : what's you card brand model?
[01:18] <gnomefreak> KakiPukul: 9200 have 3d?
[01:18] <KakiPukul> yes... for pro...
[01:18] <gnomefreak> 9200 pro*
[01:18] <gnomefreak> KakiPukul: asking cause it was left blank here
[01:18] <KakiPukul> fglrx works fine... with OGL
[01:19] <peeters> KakiPukul: I don't know exactly.. it is a brand new Acer 8200 travemate
[01:19] <tecs> anyone who can help me unmount my ipod because when i right click it and safely remove it gets detected right away again
[01:19] <jan__> yeah, but the icon is not visible before I start it manually. If i add it to the startup programs i just get the message that it cant start cause it need priveliges
[01:19] <KakiPukul> peeters: : do lspci and paste the output on pastebin...
[01:19] <KakiPukul> lemme check it out
[01:19] <DigitalGheko> tecs, turn it off? =D
[01:19] <KakiPukul> I can do 3d on the TV display too...
[01:19] <peeters> KakiPukul: pastebin? sorry he
[01:20] <Eloiz> ......OTL
[01:20] <tecs> you cant turn it off unless you have safely removed it.....
[01:20] <KakiPukul> !tell peeters about pastebin
[01:20] <DigitalGheko> jan__, I used firestarter once before... I remember there being an auto start option in the gui
[01:20] <DigitalGheko> tecs, nice catch-22 you got there lol

[01:23] <milkymilky> tecs: i dont have konquror only nautilus
[01:23] <Skail> ok, second Q : I want to use java and mysql, but as I remember, the JDBC mysql 'bridge' tends to be a separate package.  I guess this isn't much of a question, but I assume that package is easily findable
[01:23] <Nabiki> Close.  Japan.
[01:23] <tecs> ok from nautilus then
[01:23] <phonezone> hello, i have installed ubuntu and i would like to install tcl and identd on it ... how can i do that ?
[01:23] <milkymilky> there sint a media
[01:23] <DigitalGheko> Skail, try here: http://www.ubuntuguide.org
[01:23] <IdleOne> !tell Skail  about java
[01:24] <milkymilky> it used to just show up when mounted is ther a configuration file
[01:24] <IdleOne> !tell Skail  about mysql
[01:24] <gnomefreak> nooooooooo dont try there
[01:24] <IdleOne> !tell Skail  about repos
[01:24] <gnomefreak> !ubuntuguide
[01:24] <ubotu> methinks ubuntuguide is out of date, reported to break a lot and generally a bad source for information. Use help.ubuntu.com or wiki.ubuntu.com instead
[01:24] <DigitalGheko> lol
[01:24] <gnomefreak> ^^^ try there
[01:24] <zzsputnik> !paste

[01:24] <mustard5> milkymilky, on my system everything thats mounted on a folder in the /media folder shows up on desktop
[01:24] <Skail> ahh.. excellent bot
[01:24] <DigitalGheko> yes out of date but still a good indication ;] 
[01:24] <Nabiki> I am having a difficult time getting some things installed on my system (the Nvidia thing, + the wireless thing... Either or by themselves not a big deal)  :P So I was wanting to try to make all the i386 packages local before redoing the install. ^_^
[01:24] <phonezone> hello, i have installed ubuntu and i would like to install tcl and identd on it ... how can i do that ?
[01:24] <Nabiki> Is there a way to get just the i386 stuff?
[01:25] <milkymilky> well thanks anyways guys :) i'll keep searching the forums
[01:25] <IdleOne> !info tcl
[01:25] <phonezone> !info tcl
[01:25] <Nabiki> phonezone: do you know how to run synaptic? :)
[01:25] <Cyorxamp_> hmmm
[01:25] <Cyorxamp_> why has this reconnected
[01:25] <mustard5> Cyorxamp, no luck?
[01:25] <KakiPukul> the thing about nvidia  and wireless card is, actually they never cooperate with the GNU/Linux communoty
[01:25] <phonezone> Nabiki, i only tryed with apt-get
[01:25] <Cyorxamp_> mustard5: no :
[01:25] <Cyorxamp_> :(
[01:26] <DigitalGheko> phonezone, check through your spm should be there
[01:26] <blk^> i have 5.04 and i want to setup a telnet server,can anyone help ?
[01:26] <mustard5> Cyorxamp, you tried rebooting and doing it?
[01:26] <zax1> i just installed a brand new drive but cant see iit on my linux drives, any ideas on how to proceed
[01:26] <mustard5> Cyorxamp, maybe you can start with a clean slate then :)
[01:26] <Cyorxamp_> mustard5: it just keeps returning error 104
[01:26] <noncompos> hello, since i made my ip static, apt doesnt work. ubuntu server installation, pc on hub on speedstream dsl router/modem
[01:26] <Nabiki> phonezone: synaptic is part of the GUI. :)  Or rather installed along with it. ^_^  it works real nice.  It is like gnomeapt or the like under debian. ^_^
[01:26] <phonezone> DigitalGheko, thats not a solution for me ... i want to know how i can install any patchage i need.....
[01:26] <mustard5> Cyorxamp, does it describe the error further?
[01:26] <DigitalGheko> gnomefreak, if your system board has agp (which I'm guessing it does) then get yourself an FX5900
[01:27] <zax1> how do i get linux to read NTFS ?
[01:27] <gnomefreak> DigitalGheko: what does the apg slot look like?
[01:27] <Nabiki> If you have a working network, you can get the video card working...
[01:27] <Cyorxamp_> mustard5: FATAL IO ERROR 104
[01:27] <KakiPukul> Hello to package searchers, http://packages.ubuntu.com/ << search here before asking, will you?
[01:27] <Nabiki> If you have a working video card, you can get the network working.
[01:27] <DigitalGheko> phonezone, use the spm to install any package you need... or apt-get
[01:27] <Cyorxamp_> mustard5: Connection reset by peer on 0:0
[01:27] <gnomefreak> this card is apg so i thought
[01:27] <Nabiki> If they are both messing up at once, it gets odd. hehhe
[01:27] <DigitalGheko> gnomefreak, the brown one
[01:27] <mustard5> Cyorxamp, hmmm..not very informative I guess
[01:27] <gnomefreak> the directions in the book talk about apg
[01:27] <Cyorxamp_> mustard5: after 0 requests, 0 known processed and 0 events
[01:27] <zax1> H E L P
[01:27] <Skail> ok, thanks for the infos, people.
[01:28] <peeters> KakiKupul: I just paste my output lspci to pastebin?
[01:28] <mustard5> Cyorxamp, I'm out of ideas
[01:28] <Nabiki> phonezone: in fact, "apt-get install tcl"    might do it.
[01:28] <DigitalGheko> zax1, ?
[01:28] <KakiPukul> yes, peeters
[01:28] <zax1> hi gheko
[01:28] <Cyorxamp_> I really hate linux
[01:28] <phonezone> Nabiki,  look in flood
[01:28] <mustard5> Cyorxamp, I'd reboot and try it again from command line or sleep on it :)
[01:28] <DigitalGheko> sup
[01:28] <Cyorxamp_> Nothing EVER WORKS!
[01:28] <Cyorxamp_> EVER!
[01:28] <gnomefreak> ok i will be looking for apg than :)
[01:28] <DigitalGheko> lol Cyorxamp
[01:28] <zax1> i added a former windows drive to my ubuntu , it does not find it
[01:28] <KakiPukul> well, I don;t hate Linux, but I love Windows (Server edition) a lot :)
[01:28] <IdleOne> Cyorxamp:  whats not working?
[01:28] <Cyorxamp_> my nvidia drivers
[01:29] <gnomefreak> are the 6000 series supported? autodetected?
[01:29] <KakiPukul> it's really nvidia's fault, Cyorxamp
[01:29] <zax1>  n e ideas ?
[01:29] <Cyorxamp_> linux should just have a special 'drivers' style package for communication with hardware
[01:29] <DigitalGheko> zax1, is it an ide drive / scsi
[01:29] <zax1> ide
[01:29] <Cyorxamp_> would make things easier to INSTALL and CONFIG
[01:29] <Cyorxamp_> no special bits to try and use
[01:29] <Nabiki> I would be willing to explain in more detail, but I am on a windows box right now *sighs* hehehe
[01:29] <Cyorxamp_> just a centralised location
[01:29] <Cyorxamp_> called.... DEVICE MANAGER
[01:29] <Cyorxamp_> grrr!
[01:29] <DigitalGheko> zaxl, does your bios detect it for startetrs?
[01:29] <spiderman> hello. i am a big fedora fan and i cannot acces their channel. i am angry, but I love nature, very much... flowers and stuff.
[01:30] <zax1> yes, detected by bios
[01:30] <gnomefreak> Cyorxamp_: ubuntu has device manager
[01:30] <KakiPukul> zax1: : if you prefer GUI, just goto System - > Administration - > Disk
[01:30] <allanh128> Hello.   Is there anyway to restart the installer from within ubuntu after the install?
[01:30] <KakiPukul> you;ll fine your disk there
[01:30] <IdleOne> !tell Cyorxamp  about enter
[01:30] <phonezone> Nabiki, thats the problem... that command isn't working
[01:30] <DigitalGheko> KakiPukul, i was gettin there lol
[01:30] <Cyorxamp_> gnomefreak: does it allow you to access all config settings for your hardware in one place and remove/install drivers?
[01:30] <spiderman> hello. i am a big fedora fan and i cannot acces their channel. i am angry, but I love nature, very much... flowers and stuff.
[01:30] <Cyorxamp_> or just tell you some bits it plucked about thats about fuck all?
[01:30] <phonezone> !info tcl
[01:30] <gnomefreak> Cyorxamp_: you would have to look at it
[01:30] <Nabiki> phonezone: if your web browser is working, check out http://packages.ubuntu.com/
[01:30] <zax1> kakipukul, i am on kubuntu
[01:30] <KakiPukul> well, for ubuntu starters, I suggest you try to look on the GUI tools, before doing more serious stuff
[01:30] <Cyorxamp_> yeah I thought as much
[01:31] <Cyorxamp_> fuck all
[01:31] <DigitalGheko> !tell phonezone about tcl
[01:31] <Nabiki> That will tell you the packages on the server.
[01:31] <spiderman> hello. i am a big fedora fan and i cannot acces their channel. i am angry, but I love nature, very much... flowers and stuff.
[01:31] <IdleOne> Cyorxamp:  please dont use that language
[01:31] <DigitalGheko> lol nm then =P
[01:31] <IdleOne> to late
[01:31] <spiderman> hello. i am a big fedora fan and i cannot acces their channel. i am angry, but I love nature, very much... flowers and stuff.
[01:31] <Ng> to be fair, device manager is the wrong name for it, it should be called device viewer or something
[01:32] <chuckyp> spiderman, /join #fedora
[01:32] <KakiPukul> why the heck, "spiderman"
[01:32] <DigitalGheko> tru dat
[01:32] <KakiPukul> Ng, yes... it isn't like its Windows counterpart
[01:32] <gnomefreak> ng i would agree if it would open longer than flash :(
[01:32] <spiderman> hello. i am a big fedora fan and i cannot acces their channel. i am angry, but I love nature, very much... flowers and stuff.
[01:32] <KakiPukul> that's true Device MAnager
[01:32] <javiolo> hi
[01:32] <DigitalGheko> hi
[01:32] <DigitalGheko> k
[01:33] <javiolo> Im trying to use ssh with a key, I edited sshd_config but stills asking me for a pass
[01:33] <brkndapper> is there some way to copy the kernel from a live CD to a local install?
[01:33] <Jae686> yo
[01:33] <KakiPukul> at least things on Windows do exactly what the name says
[01:33] <martin> hi
[01:33] <Jae686> http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=784969&posted=1#post784969
[01:33] <Ng> javiolo: add a -v or two to the ssh command and check /var/log/auth.log on the server
[01:33] <KakiPukul> yo Jae686
[01:34] <spiderman> hello. i am a big fedora fan and i cannot acces their channel. i am angry, but I love nature, very much... flowers and stuff.
[01:34] <Seveas> javiolo, you need to put your public key in the ~/.ssh/authorized_keys file
[01:34] <DigitalGheko> yes spiderman, we know
[01:34] <javiolo> Seveas its added
[01:34] <Seveas> spiderman, this is an Ubuntu support channel, offtopic talk somewhere else
[01:34] <phonezone> DigitalGheko, not werry helpfull ...
[01:34] <brkndapper> is there some way to copy the kernel from a live CD to a local install?
[01:34] <dradul> javiolo, why do you edit the ssh server configuration (you may want to talk in #ubuntu-es)
[01:35] <DigitalGheko> phonezone, what's not helpfull?
[01:35] <javiolo> the public key is on the server an the private in the client
[01:35] <peeters> KakiPukul: I've posted my lspci to pastebin
[01:35] <javiolo> dradul I cant talk here ?
[01:35] <Ng> brkndapper: why would you want to do that? they ought to be pretty much the same I would have thought
[01:35] <phonezone> the command !tell seerkan....
[01:35] <javiolo> Im speaking in english...
[01:35] <KakiPukul> peeters: : what's the address?
[01:35] <Seveas> javiolo, sure you can talk in here 
[01:35] <DigitalGheko> lol sometimes it is ;] 
[01:35] <javiolo> ok
[01:36] <joshkl> Anyone know why my Music Player (iriver ihp-120) shows up in nautilus by the name of the harddisk (Toshiba and a modelnumber), rather than the name of the player? Or even which package is responsible?
[01:36] <andrew_> hrm someone wanna help me install ndiswrapper
[01:36] <DigitalGheko> Seveas, how you do that smily?
[01:36] <peeters> KakiPukul: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9624
[01:36] <brkndapper> Ng: I would have though as well, except the LIVECD has a working module for my NIC and the install has a broken module for my NIC :-/
[01:36] <dradul> javiolo, sure you can, but we can talk Spanish in the other channel if that makes you more comfortable.
[01:36] <KakiPukul> brkndapper: : you can recursively copy all the dir / file into a mounted file system
[01:36] <javiolo> I edited sshd_config but stills asking me for a pass
[01:36] <ompaul> DigitalGheko, ask him in #ubuntu-offtopic
[01:36] <Nabiki> Does anyone know of a mirror of just the i386 files? :)
[01:36] <takku^> what do i have to edit if i want some programs allways start after rebooting. like autoconfig ors?
[01:36] <javiolo> dradul thanks I know that channel but is not as active as here :P
[01:36] <Ng> brkndapper: erk, well I guess it would be possible, but either way could you please file a bug report?
[01:37] <KakiPukul> 0000:03:00.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corp.: Unknown device 108c (rev 03) >> there is your Ethernet card there...
[01:37] <DigitalGheko> ompaul, too late =P
[01:37] <dradul> javiolo, you don't edit the server configuration to stop the login from asking a password. You create a personal key pair wiothout a password and upload the public part to the targer account@hot. THen you add it to account@host/.ssh/authorized keys.
[01:37] <KakiPukul> well detected, but no driver for that huh...
[01:37] <brkndapper> Ng: is that done on launchpad now?
[01:37] <Ng> brkndapper: yep
[01:37] <KakiPukul> peeters: , checkout the model of that card... and find the driver on intel's site
[01:38] <dradul> javiolo, sorry for the typos. it is the same in Spanish ;-)
[01:38] <echostorm> hooray, im installed ! linux newbie here
[01:38] <peeters> KakiPukul: ok thanks
[01:38] <robertlee> hi
[01:38] <Nabiki> Welcome aboard. ^_^
[01:38] <KakiPukul> it's Acer's right, peeters?
[01:38] <peeters> KakiPukul: yes
[01:38] <KakiPukul> try to look at Acer's support website...
[01:39] <robertlee> i weant to edit my fstab in the console, anybody know the command for me  .... /etc/fstab
[01:39] <KakiPukul> first step find the model of that card first, Importatnt...
[01:39] <hade> robertlee: sudo nano -w /etc/fstab
[01:39] <javiolo> dradul Ok, I create a key with a phrase and looks everything is correct, obviosly not cos stills asking me for a pass...
[01:39] <robertlee> yoo, thanx
[01:39] <javiolo> should I post any ssh config file ?
[01:39] <Nabiki> the -w is important, especially on a smaller monitor. ^^;
[01:39] <Ng> javiolo: did you try what I suggested?
[01:39] <dradul> javiolo, no. Just create a *new* keypair without a password.
[01:40] <echostorm> anyone know of a page that discusses installing things like codecs and other usefull apps? i dont even know where to satrt... Ive spent the last 2 weeks just learning hiow to upgrade the kernel so my audio drivers would work lol
[01:40] <robertlee> kakipukul, what do u have from acer
[01:40] <arp> rebooting...
[01:40] <Ng> echostorm: there's a RestrictedFormats page in the ubuntu wiki that covers installing popular multimedia/java type things
[01:40] <Howitzer> Does anybody know if it's possible to have a taskbar in e17?
[01:40] <echostorm> ahh, yeah i saw that but didnt remember where... thanx a ton!
[01:40] <KakiPukul> acer? I have never bought anything from ACER, they suck :)
[01:40] <IdleOne> !tell echostorm  about restrictedformats
[01:40] <Toma-> Howitzer, yeh, its called the iconbar or box
[01:41] <andrew_> someone wanna help me with ndiswrapper?
[01:41] <Howitzer> iconbox?
[01:41] <KakiPukul> andrew_: : what's the trouble?
[01:41] <Howitzer> wasn't that for shorcuts?
[01:41] <K-Rich> hi hi all
[01:41] <andrew_> KakiPukul, im trying 2 install it
[01:41] <peeters> KakiPukil: Intel Giga LAN driver, only for Windows ;-(
[01:41] <Toma-> Howitzer, its one of the modules that comes with e17, find the one thats not enabled and enable it :P
[01:41] <Howitzer> okay
[01:41] <robertlee> ok, i thought you was wanting info on acer f.E. wlan dongle...
[01:41] <Howitzer> ty :D
[01:41] <robertlee> ok, :)
[01:41] <Toma-> np ;)
[01:41] <Howitzer> going to follow the e17 cvs install faq  now
[01:42] <Howitzer> looks delicious
[01:42] <KakiPukul> peeters:  oh the Gigabit version... sorry, no driver for that ATM... can't help much
[01:42] <KakiPukul> if the regular 10/100, yes there is a driver for that Eth controller
[01:42] <peeters> KakiPukul: hardware is to new I think?
[01:42] <andrew_> KakiPukul, im trying 2 install it
[01:42] <KakiPukul> yes...
[01:43] <KakiPukul> andrew_: : what's the problem then?
[01:43] <robertlee> can i write in to fstab .... user,rw or does it have to be rw,user
[01:43] <andrew_> KakiPukul, i dont no how
[01:43] <Alexi5> so april is the date for the dapper
[01:43] <Alexi5> ?
[01:43] <javiolo> ng yes but it looks that it doesnt use the public key
[01:43] <KakiPukul> andrew_: : try to use Synaptic, goto System -> Administration -> Synaptic
[01:43] <Howitzer> man
[01:44] <Nabiki> I just realised something.  I have perl installed.  I can download the packages file, and attempt to write a script to get the packages I want. :P
[01:44] <andrew_> i want to install the new version and Synaptic dont have it on there
[01:44] <KakiPukul> then search for ndiswrapper... select it and press "Apply" button...
[01:44] <andrew_> i want to install the new version and Synaptic dont have it on there
[01:44] <Howitzer> a fresh ubuntu install kind of sucks on dialup
[01:44] <KakiPukul> update it then, andrew...
[01:44] <dradul> javiolo did you add the public key to ~/.ssh/authorized_keys in the target account?
[01:44] <KakiPukul> !tell andrew_ about apt-get
[01:44] <javiolo> dradul yes
[01:45] <andrew_> KakiPukul, i no how2 use aptget
[01:45] <KakiPukul> do you know how to update the sources list? andrew_?
[01:45] <andrew_> no KakiPukul
[01:45] <KakiPukul> to get the new version of packages, you need to update your packages list first, do 'apt-get update'
[01:45] <echostorm> sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly
[01:46] <echostorm> shoot
[01:46] <echostorm> im so sorry
[01:46] <dradul> javiolo, make sure the authorized_keys file has 600 permissions else, sshd won't read it.
[01:46] <KakiPukul> did you think this is a terminal ? :)
[01:46] <andrew_> lol
[01:46] <echostorm> lol yep
[01:46] <andrew_> KakiPukul,  i dont what u said now what?
[01:46] <javiolo> dradul btw if i deactivated password auth why it ask me for a pass ?
[01:47] <KakiPukul> 'apt-get update' will update the package list...
[01:47] <KakiPukul> so you can get th3 latest version of all packages...
[01:47] <javiolo> dradul it has 644
[01:47] <dradul> javiolo, it shouldn't unless the server considers that file and directory permissions are too lax and refuses to read what it considers a compromised file.
[01:48] <echostorm> oh excellent, i need whatever this sox thing is anyway for when i set up my optical audio... nice page
[01:48] <Nabiki> As for internet.. I may end up trying to configure a "gaming bridge" to do what I want. :P
[01:48] <javiolo> dradul the only config file I should edit is sshd_config right ?
[01:48] <andrew_> KakiPukul, im trying 2 un-install the current version of ndiswrapper with atp-get and it dont seem to work
[01:49] <KakiPukul> well, my suggestion for totem/gstreamer thing... get all you gstreamer plugins isntalled first before using totem
[01:49] <echostorm> anyone know if there is a apt for the flac audio codec?
[01:49] <javiolo> Ive done the same things over osx and it works...
[01:49] <dradul> javiolo, no. In fact I recommend you replace it with a backup of the original and restart the server.
[01:49] <KakiPukul> what di you type/do to remove ndiswrapper?
[01:49] <Rambo3> sudo apt-get --purge remove ?
[01:49] <Nabiki> Is anyone here familiar with the USR Game Bridge adapter?
[01:49] <andrew_> KakiPukul, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9625
[01:49] <dradul> javiolo, you shouldn't need to fiddle with the sshd_config tile at all.
[01:50] <KakiPukul> default ubuntu's totem installation has too much problems
[01:50] <javiolo> dradul well but if i ONLY want to auth via keys no passwords, no blank pass shouldnt I edit that file ?
[01:50] <KakiPukul> Nabiki: : is that a USB or the old serial game controller. well not familiar with taht
[01:50] <andrew_> KakiPukul, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9625
[01:51] <dradul> javiolo, ahh! Of course.
[01:51] <echostorm> oh thats cool, i didnt see it so i just did sudo apt-get install flac and it worked. will that work with other things llike flash? or do i need specific version numbers
[01:51] <Legolas_78> Ciao ragazzi
[01:51] <KakiPukul> Package ndiswrapper-utils is not installed, so not removed <<< andrew_, you didn't isntall ndiswrapper AT ALL!
[01:51] <andrew_> i did
[01:51] <IdleOne> echostorm:  best to follow the wiki instructions to ensure flash and java are installed properly ()
[01:51] <andrew_> lol
[01:52] <echostorm> ok, just checking though :)
[01:52] <aman> someone help me installing telnetd ?
[01:52] <aman> apt cant find it
[01:52] <KakiPukul> aman, try http://packages.ubuntu.com/ << find telnet packages tehre
[01:53] <KakiPukul> !tell aman about apt-get
[01:53] <aman> i found it
[01:53] <aman> i download it,but dont know how to install it
[01:53] <Ng> aman: sudo apt-get install telnetd
[01:53] <Ng> aman: you'll need to have enabled the universe repository
[01:54] <Nabiki> Does anyone know any specifics about parsing data from the packages.gz files? :)
[01:54] <KakiPukul> aman, you need to update your package lists... well, Ng told you how to..
[01:54] <robertlee> !paste
[01:54] <ubotu> Don't flood the channel! Please use the pastebin at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ or the channel #flood to paste large amount of text.
[01:54] <dradul> javiolo, I just installed openssh-server to have a gander to the sshd_config file and found out that it is not reading authorized_keys by default (at least in Dapper)
[01:54] <aman> i did update them from apt-setup
[01:54] <subsonic> test
[01:54] <djs_2_6> Hey all.  I just got an error that bothers me - "Warning!  Could not grab your mouse / keyboard.  A malicious client may be eavesdropping on your session."
[01:55] <javiolo> dradul Im on breezy
[01:55] <dradul> javiolo, check on that anyway ;-)
[01:55] <Jae686> ya have enlightnet gnome with e16?
[01:55] <KakiPukul> aman, try apt-cache search telnet << checkout whether your packages list have 'telnet'
[01:55] <Ng> dradul: are you sure?
[01:55] <javiolo> dradul thats strange cos I configured everything like osx and doesnt work
[01:56] <javiolo> they use also openssh server
[01:56] <KakiPukul> djs_2_6: : some app is actually using your mouse/keyboard, not really someone from  the outside
[01:56] <Ng> dradul: it looks to me like it will work fine with keys
[01:56] <robertlee> i cannot mount hdb1, can anybody help me out please : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9626
[01:56] <echostorm> ok the only other questions i have for now, is whats the most universally decent media player (equilizer/color setteings/etc.) and cand anyone suggest a pdf reader? acrobat?
[01:56] <djs_2_6> KakiPukul - Thank goodness.  That is quite an error to get first thing in the morning...
[01:56] <gnomefreak> is the geforce mx4000 supported i saw mx440 not anything in the thousands
[01:57] <aman> KakiPukul, i did that without "d" at the end but still cant see nothing
[01:57] <KakiPukul> echostorm: : xpdf is decent enough,
[01:57] <IdleOne> !tell amn about repos
[01:57] <Ng> echostorm: totem is probably the nicest, but mplayer tends to work with most files. evince is a very nice pdf viewer and installed by default :)
[01:57] <IdleOne> !tell aman  about repos
[01:57] <chuckyp> gnomefreak, sure it is.  all the geforce cards use the nvidia-glx drivers.
[01:57] <subsonic_shadow> test
[01:57] <KakiPukul> aman: L taht means you haven;'t update the package list of the universe section,
[01:57] <KakiPukul> !tell aman about apt-get
[01:57] <javiolo> !paste
[01:57] <ubotu> Don't flood the channel! Please use the pastebin at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ or the channel #flood to paste large amount of text.
[01:57] <dradul> Ng, you are right. It works fine.
[01:57] <gnomefreak> ok ty chuckyp
[01:58] <KakiPukul> xine! the best!
[01:58] <echostorm> evince? ahh i see it. and ill try totem first then and mplayer if problems thanx :)
[01:58] <KakiPukul> xine! for media player, gxine for best firefox plugin...
[01:58] <javiolo> dradul Im going to paste the sshd_config
[01:58] <xst> I have a laptop question: Whenever I tab the mousepad in debian or knoppix it is recognized as a left-mouseclick but when I do it in Ubuntu nothing happens. Is this a bug or a "feature"?
[01:58] <gnomefreak> thats the only card ive seen under 100 usd with a pci connection :)
[01:58] <xst> breezy, by the way...
[01:58] <dradul> javiolo, I was just gong to ask you to ;-)
[01:58] <echostorm> xpdf also didnt see your response kai
[01:58] <djs_2_6> My breezy also has a really high amount of paging right now.  I have 1GB of RAM, and it is using 360 of it, and 400 of the page file...
[01:59] <javiolo> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9627
[01:59] <chuckyp> djs_2_6, thats because its ubuntu
[01:59] <subsonic_shadow> whenever I try to extract to /opt it says I dont have enough priviliges. how can I change this  (trying to instal new firefox with this guide: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion  )
[01:59] <javiolo> this is the original config
[01:59] <KakiPukul> robertlee: : you cannot mount the disk itself, you must mount the partition. "/dev/hdb" is the disk device, not the partition device
[01:59] <javiolo> just reinstalled openssh_server
[01:59] <Ng> djs_2_6: that's not necessarily a bad thing, the kernel moves things that aren't being used into swap so it can use RAM for buffers/caches
[01:59] <djs_2_6> Ng - but it is horribly slow, like windows 98 on a P90...
[02:00] <KakiPukul> partition name should be in form of /dev/hd<a-z>X (where X is a integer)
[02:00] <djs_2_6> chuckyp - anything more specific to that?
[02:00] <KakiPukul> that;s for IDE disk of course
[02:00] <javiolo> dradul thats the default config file, waht should I edit cos what I edited before doesnt seems to work...
[02:01] <Ng> djs_2_6: it's possible that something used a bunch of RAM and forced other things into swap
[02:01] <djs_2_6> Ng - Gotcha.  So, how do I clean out the swap?
[02:01] <dradul> javiolo, change AllowEmptyPasswords to yes
[02:01] <gnomefreak> ok wth is wrong with this picture :( its says the card i got has pci connection and it doesnt :(
[02:02] <dradul> javiolo, I mean PermitEmptyPasswords to yes
[02:02] <chuckyp> gnomefreak, what says that?
[02:02] <javiolo> I thought that was a bad idea
[02:02] <chuckyp> gnomefreak, and what card
[02:02] <Ng> djs_2_6: afaik there's no way to quickly pull everything out of swap, but if you select each of the apps you have open then it ought to pull them out at least
[02:02] <javiolo> cos I olnly want to give access to keys
[02:02] <dradul> javiolo, but make sure to lock down password authentication.
[02:02] <javiolo> no passwords..
[02:02] <KakiPukul> gnomefreak: : PCI refers to the bus that connects it... not the pyhsical port...
[02:02] <dradul> javiolo, only use public keys
[02:02] <gnomefreak> its the fx5200 and at compusa.com where i got it from says its pci this one is far from pci :(
[02:02] <KakiPukul> even a PCMCIA is conencted to PCI bus :)
[02:03] <Ng> KakiPukul: not always
[02:03] <KakiPukul> well.. most!
[02:03] <javiolo> ok that seems what I did before expect permitting empty pass
[02:03] <gnomefreak> slot type =pci
[02:03] <Ng> KakiPukul: cardbus is pci, but older pcmcia is isa
[02:03] <javiolo> ok that seems what I did before except permitting empty pass
[02:03] <gnomefreak> http://www.compusa.com/products/product_info.asp?product_code=335350&pfp=BROWSE
[02:03] <dradul> javiolo, hmm.. it seems that the version in Breezy doesn't allow that kind of fix up..
[02:03] <echostorm> is totem-xine and totem the same thing?
[02:03] <KakiPukul> well, I wasn[t talking about OLD hardware :)
[02:03] <KakiPukul> cause I don;t have OLD things :)
[02:03] <Ng> echostorm: there are two backends for totem, xine and gstreamer. by default the gstreamer one is installed
[02:03] <chuckyp> gnomefreak, I don't understand your problem?
[02:04] <KakiPukul> totem-xine is totem with xine backend
[02:04] <gnomefreak> wondering if i picked up wrong box cause on my box it says ddram and this one says sdram
[02:04] <chuckyp> gnomefreak, If you are saying the card isn't pci but their ad is maybe you should contact comusa.
[02:04] <KakiPukul> totem in ubuntu has gstreamer backend/pkugin as defaulty
[02:04] <gnomefreak> chuckyp: im gonna head over there maybe there are 2 types and i got wrong type
[02:04] <dradul> javiolo, try adding PasswordAuthentication no to the config file and restert with dpkg-reconfigure openssh-server
[02:04] <djs_2_6> KakiPukul - Which is better - totem-xine or totem-gstreamer??
[02:04] <chuckyp> gnomefreak, there are more than two types
[02:04] <KakiPukul> well, I prefer xine itself!
[02:05] <KakiPukul> totem sucks...
[02:05] <chuckyp> gnomefreak, there is agp pci pci-express then cards with ddram and sdram etc...
[02:05] <djs_2_6> KakiPukul - xine buffers so poorly...
[02:05] <Ng> xine has a horribly non-standard interface
[02:05] <KakiPukul> well. not mine...
[02:05] <Xenguy> javiolo: you don't restart sshd that way
[02:05] <gnomefreak> i did get wrong one
[02:05] <KakiPukul> totem-xine relies on xine, gstreamer sucks most :)
[02:05] <gnomefreak> they list both :(
[02:05] <echostorm> ahh im gonna have to go xine because the instructions that asus sent me for this mobo use xine for spdif ...im guessing totem xine is the appropriate app.
[02:06] <javiolo> xenguy what ?
[02:06] <djs_2_6> KakiPukul - Playing files from a network server, it only buffers like 10 seconds of movie...
[02:07] <KakiPukul> well, which version of xine are you talking about, I always build my own
[02:07] <echostorm> um heres a problem... when i download a deb file to desktop with firefox... it will auto open the archive  manager upon completion and give an error... then there is no file on desktop.
[02:07] <Ng> djs_2_6: to be fair, such things tend to be configurable
[02:07] <Xenguy> javiolo: if you change /etc/ssh/sshd_config, then you restart sshd with: /etc/init.d/ssh restart
[02:07] <echostorm> frustrating
[02:07] <djs_2_6> KakiPukul - I just built the newest one...
[02:07] <djp> djs_2_6, totem-xine (the build for breezy) does not work with .ogm subtitles or language selection. totem-gstreamer does work, however i had porblems with it under breezy... it still seems a little flaky at present. i plumped for vlc, which does everything i need, especially with regards subtitles and language selection
[02:07] <gnomefreak> ok ill bbl got go up there and try to get the one i need
[02:07] <javiolo> xenguy dont know how
[02:07] <javiolo> but not it works
[02:07] <KakiPukul> well, it prefer xine no matter what... totem sucks...
[02:07] <javiolo> and I did the same tha last night...
[02:08] <pm> it's nonsense
[02:08] <prateekg> where can i decrease the size of window components e.g.  width of drop down menus etc
[02:08] <echostorm> vlc is usefull but ive always used it as a backup player to mediaplayerclassic in windows
[02:08] <djs_2_6> Ng - I have searched long and hard, and I have not found a single spot that I could configure the buffering of xine from...
[02:08] <KakiPukul> well, another favorite of mine is VLC... i love them because they still have libdecss
[02:08] <Xenguy> javiolo: I was just trying to correct someone else's advice on this point
[02:08] <javiolo> xenguy ok thanks
[02:09] <javiolo> dradul thanks it worked
[02:09] <javiolo> strange but it worked
[02:09] <Ng> prateekg: use a smaller font?
[02:09] <echostorm> can anyone tell me where my deb files are disappearing to when i download em? dang archive manager
[02:10] <javiolo> is the publickey auth enough secure for having access to inet ?
[02:10] <dradul> javiolo, make sure that it PubKeyAuthentication yes and AllowRootLogin is false
[02:10] <prateekg> Ng: where to specify that, not there in kcontrol
[02:10] <dradul> javiolo, PermitRootLogin ;-)
[02:10] <Ng> echostorm: when you click on the link are you choosing the open or save option? you want to choose the save option. or right click on the link and choose save as
[02:10] <javiolo> dradul but theres no root in ubuntu no ?
[02:10] <Ng> prateekg: probably theme settings, but I don't use KDE, so I don't know
[02:11] <echostorm> yeah, i just realized that... im used to just clicking. im trying right click save as now
[02:11] <javiolo> dradul I only have one user
[02:11] <echostorm> *heh sill have win-lag
[02:11] <djs_2_6> Ng - Do you know how to change the buffering?
[02:11] <leobeta> how can i see what loads on sessions start up? (from outside the session of that user)
[02:11] <Ng> djs_2_6: 'fraid not
[02:12] <dradul> javiolo, there is but with no password. The problem is that whn sshd has 0-day exploits they can let you gain root without a password, if logins are allowed.
[02:12] <djp> i would have stuck with totem-xine if it wasn't for the sub/lang issue... it worked fine for me under debian (older build ;)). the bug has been fixed in the upstream release, so hopefully dapper will have that fixed.
[02:12] <javiolo> dradul ok
[02:12] <prateekg> Ng: ok
[02:12] <javiolo> how about
[02:12] <javiolo> is the publickey auth enough secure for having access to inet ?
[02:12] <s-wx> Hi
[02:12] <Zoroaster> exit
[02:13] <chuckyp> javiolo, nothign is secure enough untill you unplug it from the net.
[02:13] <dradul> javiolo, yes, much safer than using paswords. The security protocol is to never have anyone have access to your private key if it dowesn't have a password.
[02:13] <echostorm> im probably being ignorant, running dapper (upgrade from the 5.10 release) but the new kernel actually supports my hardware and i figured, hey why not?
[02:14] <javiolo> chukyp well but using a key I outside of the possibility of being attacked by passwords-scripts no ?
[02:14] <echostorm> but at least everything is working.
[02:14] <s-wx> My apt-get is trying to connect on ca.archive.ubuntu.com but it is not responding, can you tell me if the host is up? here it seems down (ive never edited source.list since installation)
[02:14] <chuckyp> s-wx, why don't you try pinging it?
[02:15] <leobeta>  how can i see what loads on sessions start up?
[02:15] <s-wx> chuckyp: it wont respond on ping... 62 ms...
[02:15] <chuckyp> leobeta, update-rd.d
[02:15] <LinuxJones> s-wx: edit /etc/apt/sources.lst and remove the "ca. "part from the path for all entries
[02:15] <ravett> I'm having problems with my mouse cursor changing to all black when i type in an xterm window.  I've searched a bit on google and can't seem to find any thing describing my problem, can anyone give me a point in the right direction?
[02:15] <chuckyp> err leobeta update.rc-d
[02:15] <chuckyp> man I can't type
[02:16] <Xenguy> javiolo: BTW I'm not sure about your situation, but I don't believe that 'PermitEmptyPasswords yes' is a good idea (the default is 'no').  So you want to read 'man sshd_config' *carefully* I think, and perhaps locate a good HOWTO on configuring sshd IMHO
[02:16] <leobeta> that's a file or a command ? where is it?
[02:16] <alheim> hey
[02:16] <robertlee> how do get the rights for hdb1, i know with chmod, but dont know what to punch in after that
[02:16] <LinuxJones> s-wx: .ca and .us mirrors sucks horribly and should not even be used as far as I am concerned.
[02:17] <s-wx> LinuxJones: ok iLL just remove the ca and try it
[02:17] <javiolo> xenguy PermitEmptyPasswords is set to NO, I didnt modify it
[02:17] <chuckyp> robertlee, what do you mean what rights do you need.
[02:17] <ompaul> echostorm, can you take the dapper stuff to #ubuntu+1 the home of the dapper conversation :)
[02:17] <Xenguy> javiolo: good
[02:17] <Toma-> robertlee, actually, you might need to get it in fstab...
[02:17] <Howitzer> How big is the e17 CVS?
[02:17] <Toma-> Howitzer, big.
[02:18] <LinuxJones> s-wx: once you've done that apt-get update to change the package lists for repos and you will be fine
[02:18] <Howitzer> but
[02:18] <Howitzer> 50mb?
[02:18] <Howitzer> 100mb?
[02:18] <s-wx> in progress
[02:18] <Howitzer> oh wait
[02:18] <Toma-> *shrug*
[02:18] <Howitzer> it just finished
[02:18] <Toma-> :P
[02:18] <Howitzer> off to phase 2 :D
[02:18] <robertlee> well, i planted it in fstab user,rw i believe thats right, but there r some folders inside hdb1 which i cannot move or delete...
[02:18] <Howitzer> but it can't be that big :s
[02:18] <echostorm> sorry, i will keep that in mind, for future.
[02:18] <chuckyp> robertlee, what filesystem is it?
[02:18] <Toma-> did you get all parts?
[02:18] <javiolo> wow now its more strange the key auth works
[02:18] <Howitzer> i download at a max of 80kB/sec and it took about 20/30m?
[02:19] <chuckyp> please don't say ntfs
[02:19] <javiolo> but it dont read the authorized_keys file
[02:19] <alheim> does anybody have issue with A6VC laptop and ubuntu dist ?
[02:19] <Toma-> Howitzer, sounds right
[02:19] <Feerx> anyone knows how to add something to the end of every line in a file using SED? please
[02:19] <lysis> using the 5.10 live cd, how do i mount an ntfs partition and be able to MODIFY it?
[02:19] <Howitzer> Not
[02:19] <ompaul> !ntfs
[02:19] <ubotu> somebody said ntfs was the filesystem used in Windows 2000 and newer; to automatically mount your NTFS partition: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions
[02:19] <Howitzer> you can't
[02:20] <ompaul> lysis, you can't modify iy
[02:20] <alheim> lysis no ntfs driver under linux => read only paritions
[02:20] <Xenguy> Feerx: not necessarily, but what do you need to add :-)  ?
[02:20] <ompaul> lysis, you can suck the material from it and onto a cd /dvd
[02:20] <Howitzer> but wasn't there a forcing package for it or something?
[02:20] <robertlee> reiserfs
[02:20] <s-wx> LinuxJones: What dos the option -f when I apt-get update?
[02:20] <lysis> ompaul, my problem is this.  effing windows makes those directories for their updates, and i (half asleep) accidently dragged my DOWNLOAD folder into it
[02:20] <Howitzer> s-wx, resolve unsolved dependencies i think
[02:21] <lysis> now i can't OPEN the folder in windows, i can't MOVE the folder in windows.  that folder is a lost cause in windows
[02:21] <Howitzer> *unmet
[02:21] <chuckyp> robertlee, okay well chown -R robertlee /dev/hdb1  or chown -R robertlee <directory>  that you want to own
[02:21] <s-wx> Howitzer: perhaps for correct problems ?
[02:21] <Feerx> i want to add a flag like F to the end of every line that contain 100..  using sed
[02:21] <lysis> i can at least SEE the folder with my livecd in, but was hoping i could just find a way to move the folder back.
[02:21] <Howitzer> yep
[02:21] <greginve> hello
[02:21] <alheim> does anybody have issue with A6VC laptop and ubuntu dist ?
[02:21] <sandwish_mx> anyone has used spca5xx?
[02:21] <lysis> there are about 35-40gb of information in that folder; i'd rather not burn it to a disc.
[02:21] <sandwish_mx> I have a problem
[02:21] <javiolo> now works I had to rename my private key to id_rsa
[02:22] <sandwish_mx> after I type "make"
[02:22] <greginve> where i can find a file in which are respozitories?
[02:22] <chuckyp> sandwish_mx, whats your problem?
[02:22] <Xenguy> !tell greginve about repos
[02:22] <ompaul> lysis, I don't know anything about windows, so the implications of what you have done don't mean anything to me, either way you can't get there from here today, how about backing up the personal data and killing the windows partition and start again if it is really bad
[02:23] <Toma-> sandwish_mx, yep
[02:23] <Feerx> how do i add sonething using the sed? sed s/asdf/asdf/ edits something.. cant find it in the man pages
[02:23] <lysis> Howitzer, what about this . . . i have a 20gb partition on my drive i was GOING to install ubuntu onto.  how do i format the drive to ntfs (from no formatting) OR to fat32 so i can copy the files over?
[02:23] <Xenguy> greginve: or maybe '/etc/apt/sources.list'
[02:23] <greginve> thx
[02:23] <s-wx> it seems that all the mirror are responding for the fist time (ive been under ubuntu for 3 months) by removing reference to canada mirrors in my sources
[02:23] <s-wx> thk ya
[02:23] <chuckyp> lysis, you need to make a fat32 partition so that both ubuntu and xp can see it.
[02:23] <lysis> ompaul, i'd rather find a way to fix than destroy and start new.   and it's a data partition.  nothing important is on it.
[02:23] <javiolo> thanks for the help guys
[02:24] <Xenguy> Feerx: What do you need to add  ?
[02:24] <LinuxJones> s-wx: it forces the upgrade, don't do it normally
[02:24] <Howitzer> lysis, how many GB's are the things you  need to copy?
[02:24] <Jae686> how do i run py files?
[02:24] <chuckyp> lysis, well what are you trying to fix?
[02:24] <lysis> 40gb total;  i can do it in a couple reboots
[02:24] <ompaul> lysis, you use gparted and do the vfat file sytem
[02:24] <eastgroup> how i can make a fax server to send fax from the network ?

[02:24] <ompaul> sandwish_mx, do not paste in here
[02:24] <s-wx> LinuxJones: Ok.. i only use apt-get when i get errors in synaptic
[02:24] <Howitzer> because then you could use 5gb to install Ubuntu on, use 15gb as a fat32 partition and copy the files onto that
[02:24] <xstation> hi
[02:24] <Xenguy> !tell sandwish_mx about paste
[02:24] <Howitzer> sandwish_mx, please dont spam like that :(
[02:25] <_Vampiria_> hi, does anyone have a good kernel-compile-howto link to give me, pls?
[02:25] <ompaul> sandwish_mx, use paste.ubuntu-nl.org

[02:25] <Xenguy> Feerx: yes, specifically what do you need to add?
[02:25] <sandwish_mx> chuckyp, thanks for u respond
[02:26] <lysis> ompaul, A busy device is a device with at least one mounted partition.
[02:26] <lysis> Because making changes to a busy device may confuse the kernel, you are advised to reboot your computer.
[02:26] <xstation> just a real simple question -at the prompt i have emily@rex - ehat is my machine name emily or rex
[02:26] <robertlee> okidoki, super it worked!!!! thanks
[02:26] <Feerx> Xenguy: dosnt really matter.. like EDIT for example
[02:26] <xstation> what
[02:26] <Toma-> xstation, rex
[02:26] <leobeta> i need to see what loads up (daemons, scripts or whatever) when i start a session with "xx" for example
[02:26] <lysis> does that mean it didn't work?
[02:26] <chuckyp> o0, how do you plan on installing those packages with out internet?
[02:26] <o0> xstation, rex.
[02:26] <lysis> no wait, it did
[02:26] <sandwish_mx> ok, I c
[02:26] <lysis> ok later guys;  bbs i think
[02:26] <ompaul> lysis, have you put aside
[02:26] <o0> chuckyp, download in windows, burning on cd and copy in ubuntu then :>
[02:27] <xstation> Toma/oG thanks
[02:27] <ompaul> lysis, a partition that you were going to use for Ubuntu
[02:27] <_Vampiria_> does anyone have a good kernel-compile-howto link to give me, pls?
[02:27] <Gopi> hi thegladiator
[02:27] <soundray> !kernelcompile
[02:27] <ubotu> You will probably find info about this at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCompileHowto
[02:27] <_Vampiria_> thanks :)
[02:28] <chuckyp> o0, well you would need to specify where the .debs are in the sources.list I beilive other wise you could just install each one with dpkg
[02:28] <thegladiator> hi Gopi :)
[02:28] <lysis> ompaul, how do i mount a fat partition?  "unknown filesystem 'fat'   AND same error with 'fat32'
[02:28] <chuckyp> o0, instead of using apt-get if you are sure that dependencies are satisfied.
[02:28] <lysis> (fstab)
[02:28] <leobeta> i need to see what loads up when i start a session with "xx" for example
[02:28] <thegladiator> so u r mythtv ?
[02:28] <sudharsh> lysis: use vfat
[02:28] <chuckyp> lysis, should be able to auto mount it.
[02:28] <chuckyp> lysis, and yes use vfat
[02:28] <Feerx> please.. anyone ever used SED?
[02:28] <soundray> o0, try 'apt-get -qq --print-uris install fakeroot gcc-3.4 module-assistant build-essential debhelper >urilist'
[02:29] <xstation> the reason I ask is because I setting up postfix and my server name will be myhostname = rex.mydomain.com
[02:29] <soundray> o0: urilist should contain all the files you need to download afterwards.
[02:29] <Linux_Kong> leobeta: what type of session? have looked at your logs? man tail may also be a good start
[02:29] <ompaul> lysis, mount -t vfat /dev/?? /mnt/XXX where you use XXX as directories that you make  and ?? = the partition your working on
[02:29] <lysis> awesome ompaul thanks
[02:30] <LadyNikon> hey .. is there a way to get rid of bugbuddy without getting rid of the gnome desktop?
[02:30] <thegladiator> Gopi, did u get tv working ?
[02:30] <Xenguy> Feerx: hrm, I don't know how to do that with sed; is it a large file, or files?
[02:30] <Toma-> LadyNikon, gnome-desktop is a meta package...
[02:30] <Gopi> thegladiator: still no :(
[02:30] <xstation> how to change sudo password is the command passwd
[02:30] <chuckyp> xstation, you would have to change the password for root.
[02:30] <Gopi> thegladiator: actually TV is working in xawtv but i am not able to record in it :(
[02:30] <lysis> ugh.   it's not letting me create a folder.   =/
[02:31] <lysis> this is becoming upsetting.
[02:31] <kirth_Gersen> Can anyone help me about nvidia driver installation?
[02:31] <chuckyp> lysis, mkdir
[02:31] <sudharsh> lysis: permissions mate
[02:31] <thegladiator> Gopi, do you have any idea why the recording is not working ?
[02:31] <xstation> chuckyp yes how to do it
[02:31] <leobeta> Linux_Kong: i put a script at "Sessions > Startup Programs" and the user doesnt have the privileges to execute the script, so the loading session stay still
[02:31] <lysis> sudharsh, i'm as root right now.
[02:31] <sudharsh> lysis: try changing the uid in /etc/fstab
[02:31] <Gopi> thegladiator: thats what i dont know... maybe if I can post that message anyone can help me ?
[02:31] <lysis> sudharsh, this is weird.  i can't do it in konq or whatever it is in gnome, but i can do it at cli
[02:32] <chuckyp> xstation, sudo passwd <yourusername>
[02:32] <thegladiator> Gopi, yes please use the paste bin
[02:32] <thegladiator> ubotu, tell Gopi about paste
[02:32] <thegladiator> use the paste bin and paste ur error message
[02:32] <Gopi> thegladiator: I am not in Ubuntu right now.. let me switch onto Ubuntu and try that recording and paste that error message !
[02:32] <Gopi> thegladiator: I know it
[02:32] <thegladiator> and ask away , i am sure u will get the help
[02:32] <thegladiator> ok use ubuntu now
[02:32] <sudharsh> lysis: so edit the fstab file
[02:33] <chuckyp> kirth_Gersen, what trouble are you having wtih it?
[02:33] <o0> does anyone have a link to how-to quick DHCP configure so i can establish my internet connection trough bash in ubuntu?
[02:33] <leobeta> ----- I put a script at "Sessions > Startup Programs" and the user doesnt have the privileges to execute the script, so the loading session stay still
[02:33] <lysis> sudharsh, i got it working now.  it's just weird since i'm on livecd i think
[02:33] <Mabus06> Can I take my hard drive with ubuntu installed on it and use it on another computer without the internet?
[02:33] <sudharsh> aah,..
[02:33] <xstation> chuckyp thanks
[02:34] <chuckyp> o0, just sudo ifup <device>  I believe it will tyr dhcp by default
[02:34] <chuckyp> xstation, np
[02:34] <sudharsh> has anyone successfully installed x.org 7 without breaking up the system
[02:34] <sandwish_mx> I follow the instructions in ubuntu.org, but I each time I use make, the same problem came out
[02:34] <sandwish_mx> /lib/modules/2.6.12-10-686/build no such dir or file
[02:34] <sandwish_mx> I have install the linux-headers file
[02:34] <sandwish_mx> what's wrong with the build file, it seems like a link to somewhere else
[02:34] <Xenguy> Feerx: anyway, I was going to suggest recording a macro in your favourite text editor.  That's how I would do it with Vim, unless I had millions of files to process
[02:34] <chuckyp> o0, i.e. if your device is eth0 'sudo ifup eth0'
[02:34] <sandwish_mx> I can not get my Benq DC1500 camera work under ubuntu without spca
[02:34] <phonezone> hi, a question... how do i start/stop x(grafik mode)?
[02:34] <sandwish_mx> any other driver could substitute it?
[02:34] <sandwish_mx> thank you:)
[02:34] <sudharsh>  tried to install it from dapper repos and messed up everythin...how do i do the restore to older versions
[02:35] <chuckyp> ubotu, tell sandwish_mx about pastebin
[02:35] <sandwish_mx> :(
[02:35] <sudharsh> phonezone: startx
[02:35] <phonezone> tnx
[02:35] <o0> thanks chuckyp
[02:35] <o0> gotta try it
[02:35] <phonezone> sudharsh, and how to stop?
[02:35] <chuckyp> phonezone, sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop or 'sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
[02:35] <soundray> o0, if chuckyp's advice doesn't work, you'll have to add a line to /etc/network/interfaces like 'iface eth0 inet dhcp"
[02:36] <xstation> any body here use postfix --I was after a good biik
[02:36] <chuckyp> phonezone, or sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[02:36] <xstation> book
[02:37] <leobeta> I put a script at "Sessions > Startup Programs" and the user doesnt have the privileges to execute the script, so the loading of the session stays still
[02:37] <soundray> How do evolution and thunderbird compare as mail clients?
[02:37] <elkbuntu> evolution sucks
[02:37] <Mabus06> Can I take my hard drive with ubuntu installed on it and use it on another computer without the internet?
[02:37] <elkbuntu> it's a wee bit too simple for my likings, anyway
[02:37] <sudharsh> leobeta: sure u got the executable bit..?
[02:37] <chuckyp> xstation, http://www.postfix-book.com/
[02:37] <Xenguy> xstation: apt-get install postfix-doc
[02:37] <soundray> elkbuntu: how about for a non-technical user?
[02:37] <echostorm> i dont see too much of a difference in them, i prefer thunderbird but, thats because im used to it probably
[02:37] <o0> soundray, where shuld i add this line? on the bottom?
[02:37] <o0> :>
[02:37] <elkbuntu> Mabus06, theortically yes, but you'd need to reconfigure X
[02:37] <leobeta> sudharsh: heard about it but couldnt do anything about it =S, what is it?
[02:37] <sudharsh> Mabus06: yeah jus make sure u r connecting it rite...i meant the master slave thing
[02:38] <soundray> o0, yes.
[02:38] <javiolo> elkbuntu I second that
[02:38] <o0> ok thx, bbl
[02:38] <javiolo> Im looking for an alternative to evolution
[02:38] <elkbuntu> soundray, it's sufficient for it's purpose, but it's... i dont know... plain and almost featureless
[02:38] <Linux_Kong> elkbuntu: define sucks for me please
[02:38] <elkbuntu> javiolo, thunderbird
[02:38] <Mabus06> elkbuntu, that's pretty easy on ubuntu though, it pretty much autodetects all the right stuff. What about motherboards? Does it matter that it's a different one?
[02:38] <Xenguy> Mabus06: linux is pretty good at harddrive swapping
[02:38] <Mabus06> okay, thanks
[02:38] <elkbuntu> Linux_Kong, featureless :P
[02:38] <sudharsh> leobeta: ok the scripts need to be execuatble right?..so do a chmod 777 <filename>
[02:38] <Mabus06> all
[02:38] <xstation> checkyp /Xenguy thanks
[02:39] <leobeta> sudharsh: let see that...
[02:39] <javiolo> elkbuntu I used it long time ago, let see if now its better
[02:39] <k31th> Can some one with multi do me a favour and tell me the name of a package, if you search for nzb the package begins with k
[02:39] <elkbuntu> Mabus06, i dont really know
[02:39] <k31th> thanks !
[02:39] <engla> How do you mount a camera's memory if you connect it with USB? I failed to do that yesterday, and I'm supposed to be a computer whiz so it was kind of embarrasing
[02:39] <sudharsh> leobeta: 777 allows evryones to read,write and execute
[02:39] <sudharsh> engla: happens all the time :)
[02:39] <javiolo> is there any way to uninstall evolution ?
[02:40] <sudharsh> engla: the camera are u tryin to access the card or the inbuilt memory
[02:40] <elkbuntu> javiolo, yes. with apt or synaptic :P
[02:40] <engla> dmesg didn't tell me about problems, it looked like it would work.. I though gnome-volume-manager would mount this thing automatically
[02:40] <soundray> elkbuntu: this is for my wife, she's fed up with mutt, but it's the only mail client I've ever used seriously. Sounds like she might find her way around evolution easily.
[02:40] <leobeta> sudharsh: yup, knew that and now u say that, i remember setting privileges to admin group and then letting that user out of admin group :S
[02:40] <engla> sudharsh: the memory card in the camera, but connected via the camera
[02:40] <elkbuntu> soundray, sure
[02:40] <engla> I've also unsuccessfully connected an usb cardreader
[02:40] <engla> how do you mount those things?
[02:40] <soundray> elkbuntu: can you say anything about thunderbird?
[02:41] <anto9us> engla, just put a card in it
[02:41] <sudharsh> engla: i guess they are sda
[02:41] <elkbuntu> soundray, it's alot less cluttered
[02:41] <sudharsh> try mount /dev/sda1
[02:41] <engla> anto9us: nope, nothing mounted automatically
[02:41] <engla> sudharsh: okay
[02:41] <sudharsh> with sudo of course
[02:41] <engla> but I didn't have (and don't have right now) /dev/sda
[02:41] <soundray> elkbuntu: is that because it doesn't try to imitate MS Outlook?
[02:41] <anto9us> sda1?
[02:41] <sudharsh> leobeta: surely there must be better ways to do things :P
[02:42] <javiolo> is thunderbird via apt ?
[02:42] <sudharsh> anto9us: well i use it to mount mine
[02:42] <sudharsh> card reader
[02:42] <engla> echo /dev/s* gives: /dev/shm /dev/snd /dev/sndstat /dev/stderr /dev/stdin /dev/stdout
[02:42] <elkbuntu> soundray, i'd have to say neither of them are clones of outlook
[02:42] <glock> startx
[02:42] <anto9us> sudharsh, no, I was questioning engla if it was in dev :)
[02:42] <glock> sirc
[02:42] <glock> FTW
[02:42] <soundray> elkbuntu: I see, I think I'll give her thunderbird for testing first.
[02:43] <glock> startx
[02:43] <Linux_Kong> i find tbird to handle imap far better than evolution
[02:43] <anto9us> engla, did anything show up in dmesg?
[02:43] <engla> yes it did
[02:43] <elkbuntu> soundray, install both and have a browse of both. thunderbird's account setup is a little bit more complex, but that's a once off issue and it's just a matter of a few extra clicks
[02:43] <sudharsh> i think we hav to connect the device foist
[02:43] <glock> exit
[02:43] <engla> I don't have the peripherhal here now though :-(
[02:43] <engla> but how do I find the correct /dev/* of a  connected device?
[02:43] <elkbuntu> soundray, they dont conflict at all as far as i know
[02:43] <sudharsh> engla: oh well..try that command
[02:44] <sudharsh> engla: it depends on the device
[02:44] <twa1296> i'd like to try an alternative to gftp, please tell me another good ftp client
[02:44] <engla> I tired device manager, and read about "* camera" that was connected... but no device was given there
[02:44] <anto9us> twa1296, tried nautilus?
[02:44] <soundray> elkbuntu: okay, thanks.
[02:44] <engla> So it even knew it was a camera and what model
[02:44] <Linux_Kong> twa1296: gui or cli?
[02:44] <leobeta> sudharsh: didn't work, i dont think is that...just tell me, please, how do i get to manage the list on "Sessions > Startup Programs" from outside the user?
[02:44] <twa1296> anto9us: aha! thanks...
[02:45] <sudharsh> leobeta: personally i dont keep scripts that way..
[02:45] <twa1296> linux_kong: gui
[02:45] <Linux_Kong> twa1296: igloo, dunno if its still active though
[02:46] <sudharsh> leobeta: doh! my bad..so u want to exec scripts ar startup
[02:46] <leobeta> sudharsh: thats right
[02:46] <Linux_Kong> twa1296: or filezilla
[02:46] <leobeta> sudharsh: didnt understand the previous line : P
[02:47] <leobeta> sudharsh: but now i wanna erase the scripts that i added to the "Startup programs" list...
[02:47] <sudharsh> there is delete..button isnt it?
[02:47] <engla> sudharsh: could my lack of sda1 be kernel- or services- related?
[02:48] <sudharsh> engla: i think these nodes are created only when u plugin the device
[02:48] <sudharsh> i dont hav sda1 myself rite now
[02:49] <anto9us> engla, yes, they're generated through hotplug I believe
[02:49] <Toma-> udev
[02:49] <engla> udev?
[02:49] <anto9us> udev then, thanks Toma- :)
[02:49] <adub> it appears i need to repair grub.....I want to dual boot windows and ubuntu linux but i installed windows after linux and now grub isnt working and windows just boots?
[02:49] <engla> I'm on a 2.6.15 kernel but in breezy
[02:50] <Toma-> ;)
[02:50] <chmod775> maxkelley, hey dude
[02:50] <engla> so what service is responsible?
[02:50] <sudharsh> engla: it doeasnt matter
[02:50] <chmod775> maxkelley, u there
[02:50] <chmod775> ?
[02:50] <hade> what files do i need to change to chagne a machines hostname, just /etc/hostname ?
[02:50] <adub> how can i reinstall grub
[02:50] <sudharsh> adub: boot from the live cd
[02:50] <Toma-> adub, put your ubuntu cd in the drive and at the boot: prompt type "linux rescue", iirc
[02:51] <Feerx> im going mad.. is there no way to add something to the end of every line cantaining 100 whit SED? sed/$/ H/ file > newfile adds H to every line
[02:51] <Lorvy> hey, where could i find the list of supported/working wlan adapters for ubuntu? once saw it but cant find it anymore..
[02:51] <adub> type "linux rescue", iirc
[02:51] <Toma-> Feerx, try asking in #linux
[02:51] <engla> Toma-: I certainly have udev running. So that should be in place, right? But could it be that it won't automount things that are not in /etc/fstab
[02:51] <eastgroup> how i can access hardware manager ?
[02:51] <sudharsh> engla: u said u dint hav the cam now
[02:51] <Toma-> engla, yep
[02:51] <engla> sudharsh: right
[02:51] <engla> :-(
[02:51] <Toma-> engla, what are u doing?
[02:51] <sudharsh> so...dats y no sda1
[02:52] <adub> toma- am i right on the command also what will this command do on boot
[02:52] <anto9us> Feerx, grep 100 | sed
[02:52] <engla> trying to mount the memory of a camera I connected via USB
[02:52] <sudharsh> u gotta connect some device first to get it detected
[02:52] <sudharsh> engla: u hav an mp3 flash or usb flash disk
[02:52] <sudharsh> ?? now
[02:53] <Toma-> adub, thatll get you into linux rescue mode, you then need to chroot to your normal ubuntu partition, then fix the mbr with grub
[02:53] <engla> nopes.. I have a mobile phone I can connect via usb though.. never managed to do anything with that though, even in osx
[02:53] <sudharsh> engla: oh..:)
[02:53] <Feerx> anto9us: i have tryed that but thet means the newfile wont contain the lines whit no 100 in them
[02:53] <eyeRound> does anyone know why i cant get into my other channel, pound debian?
[02:53] <Toma-> engla, cant you just use gphoto?
[02:53] <nm> !pastebin
[02:53] <ubotu> I heard 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.ubuntu-nl.org - Install webboard for easy pasting from the gnome taskbar :)
[02:53] <adub> toma-  i dont know what all to do...fix it with grub what do i do apt-get install grub
[02:53] <anto9us> Feerx, aah, of course, hang on
[02:53] <engla> Toma-: is that something I have to install? I'd love to get  asimple app to do this for me
[02:54] <sudharsh> engla: of course and f-spot to edit them
[02:54] <sudharsh> adub: no grub-install will be alreay there
[02:54] <sudharsh> dont do apt-get
[02:54] <engla> thanks for those tips anyway
[02:54] <nm> take a look at this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9630
[02:54] <Feerx> anto9us: ok, thanks
[02:55] <adub> sudharsh what do i need to do browse to grub and edit
[02:55] <nm> ridiculous, i get that error whenever i try to install, uninstall, or use vpopmail
[02:55] <nm> i'd just like to get rid of vpopmail, it is causing some serious problems
[02:55] <Toma-> engla, "gthumb --import-photos"
[02:55] <nm> anyone encountered that error?
[02:55] <sudharsh> adub: r u in linux rescue
[02:55] <sudharsh> mode
[02:55] <adubz> what do i do browse to grub then edit
[02:55] <YogSothoth> Hi
[02:55] <sudharsh> Toma-: we should chroot to /mnt/sysimage for grub recovery rite?
[02:55] <hade> what files do i need to change to chagne a machines hostname, just /etc/hostname ?
[02:56] <Toma-> sudharsh, sounds right
[02:56] <engla> ooh I have to try that
[02:56] <echostorm> hmmn anyone have a mobo with a realtek alc850 audio card on it? im still having issues with crappy sounding sound, maybe someone else has been through this
[02:56] <sudharsh> adubz: k..try 'chroot /mnt/sysimage'
[02:56] <chuckyp> sudharsh, grub is config based  so as long as you can edit he config and save it it should be fine.
[02:56] <Xenguy> hade: see also /etc/hosts
[02:56] <Bilange> looks like the canadian mirror or apt's archive.ubuntu.com is down-- is there somewhere a list of other mirrors I could use?
[02:56] <adubz> sudharsh then what
[02:56] <adubz> reboot
[02:56] <YogSothoth> I'm trying to use init.d but it doesn't work! Any help on this? http://rafb.net/paste/results/hi7P8B56.html
[02:56] <sudharsh> chuckyp: but reinstalling helps..doesnt it
[02:57] <sudharsh> adubz: no..
[02:57] <echostorm> its on most newer gigabyte and asus boards, among others
[02:57] <hade> Xenguy: ok thanks
[02:57] <Toma-> engla, do this for me, click System > Preferences > Removable Drives and Media
[02:57] <sudharsh> noe type 'grub-install'
[02:57] <Xenguy> hade: yw
[02:57] <sudharsh> Toma-: he doesnt hav the device now
[02:57] <Toma-> might wanna put it on mbr..
[02:57] <Toma-> yeh thatll happen
[02:57] <LinuxJones> Bilange:  edit /etc/apt/sources.lst and remove the "ca. "part from the path for all entries
[02:58] <engla> Toma-: right. Thanks for all the tips, I'll try again
[02:58] <Toma-> hummm...
[02:58] <Toma-> engla, nonono
[02:58] <sudharsh> adubz: tried 'grub-install'?
[02:58] <Feerx> anto9us: got it?
[02:58] <Toma-> engla, do this for me, click System > Preferences > Removable Drives and Media , then click Camera and tell me what it says in the Digital Camera box
[02:58] <Bilange> LinuxJones: eww, looks like im gonna hammer the main archives repo.. :/ i have no choice, I guess :)
[02:58] <anto9us> Feerx, this should help you work it out http://www.grymoire.com/Unix/Sed.html#uh-0
[02:58] <Xenguy> Bilange: /msg ubotu mirrors
[02:58] <adubz> ok here goes something i hope
[02:58] <Bilange> Xenguy: ah, thanks a bunch :D

[02:59] <concept10> Anyone have an idea of what I could do to fix that in totem?
[02:59] <Feerx> anto9us: ok i will give it a try, thanks
[03:00] <engla> Toma-: well it didn't. :-(
[03:00] <chuckyp> concept10, changing video drivers?
[03:00] <anto9us> Feerx, there lies great power :)
[03:00] <Toma-> engla, did "gthumb --import-photos" do anything?
[03:00] <chuckyp> concept10, that looks wack
[03:00] <ubuntu> hello i am sure you have had this question before - my system hangs on boot at hotplug subsystem
[03:00] <LinuxJones> Bilange:  at least it will work ;)
[03:00] <concept10> chuckyp, everything works except video players, games work, etc.  I have been using the same drivers for a year
[03:00] <Toma-> concept10, what codec is the movie using?
[03:01] <Xenguy> Bilange: dunno if this is the best, but it works: http://ca.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu
[03:01] <Linux_Kong> concept10: what file format are you playing
[03:01] <Xenguy> Bilange: sorry, nm
[03:01] <djp> anyone using a webcam with breezy here?
[03:01] <Toma-> djp, yep
[03:01] <engla> Toma-: I didn't try that then, I didn't know about it. Right now it pops up a box about importing, but there is nothing to import from right now
[03:01] <Toma-> ok.....
[03:01] <Xenguy> Bilange: I meant this: ftp://ftp.cs.mun.ca/pub/mirror/ubuntu/
[03:01] <Toma-> camera isnt detected?
[03:01] <YogSothoth> I use ndiswrapper to load a Windows 2000 driver (mrv8000c)
[03:01] <YogSothoth> for my wireless card (pciid: 11ab:1faa)
[03:01] <djp> Toma_, which one do you use? i would like to get one that does not need any kernel compiling etc...
[03:01] <YogSothoth> But when Ubuntu starts, it gets stuck on /etc/init.d/networking
[03:01] <concept10> Linux_Kong, its a .mov file, I have watched that before, It may have something to do with being on dapper or this kernel
[03:02] <sudharsh> djp: which make
[03:02] <Bilange> Xenguy: you picked up 'my' broken/down mirror, fyi :)
[03:02] <sudharsh> try spaca5xx drivers works for my chinese ones
[03:02] <djp> sudharsh, not worried as long as it has a resolution of 640x480
[03:02] <Xenguy> Bilange: ftp://ftp.cs.mun.ca/pub/mirror/ubuntu/  ?
[03:02] <concept10> Toma-, how do I tell what codec is being used ?
[03:02] <YogSothoth> So I created a script to start with rc.d but nothing happen! see the script here: http://rafb.net/paste/results/hi7P8B56.html
[03:02] <Toma-> djp, well, the spca5xx drivers are borked in breezy, but theres a simple howto on how to fix them, but need a little compiling. ALOT of cameras use spca5xx and spca5xx drivers are the bomb.
[03:02] <nm> sigh
[03:02] <nm> i knew i would run into problems using a debian based system eventually
[03:02] <djp> sudharsh, is there a way to find out what drivers certain models require?
[03:03] <Toma-> concept10, "file moviefile.avi"
[03:03] <Bilange> Xenguy: ca.archives.ubuntu.com or something similar.. anyways, I found _the_ goldmine of mirrors on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Archive -- ill pick one in the list :)
[03:03] <Linux_Kong> concept10: does mplayer do the same?
[03:03] <nm> this is ridiculous, i select the package to be purged because it won't configure, in /var/lib/dpkg/status
[03:03] <chuckyp> nm, what problem is that?
[03:03] <sudharsh> Toma-: oh really...toma wheres the link for the howto
[03:03] <nm> chuckyp: when i try to remove vpopmail, because it is broken/not working
[03:03] <Toma-> 1 moment plz
[03:03] <ubuntu> hello i am sure you have had this question before - my system hangs on boot at hotplug subsystem
[03:03] <sudharsh> djp: plugin the webcam..do an lsusb and find ur chipset..
[03:03] <nm> it keeps trying to run through the configure process, and run /etc/init.d/vpopmail
[03:03] <nm> when all i want it to do is remove it
[03:03] <Xenguy> Bilange: K :-)
[03:04] <chuckyp> nm, can you use apt-get to remove it?
[03:04] <nm> and since that script is broken, it won't uninstall the package
[03:04] <nm> chuckyp: no, apt-get doesn't work, it gives me the same error, it attempts to run the script to 'stop' the service
[03:04] <chuckyp> nm, well your problem isn't with debian its with vpopmail
[03:04] <concept10> Linux_Kong, not sure let me check (I hardly use mplayer ever...I like totem and vlc)
[03:04] <LinuxJones> nm: apt-get --purge remove packagename doesn't work ?
[03:04] <djp> sudharsh, i see. haven't bought one yet though! was thinking of looking for the logitech quickcam pro 4000, but not sure if that is still available
[03:04] <chuckyp> nm, did you try stopping the service yourself?
[03:04] <nm> chuckyp: no, my problem is with the debian package management
[03:04] <Toma-> ubotu, spca5xx is Breezy drivers for spca5xx based webcams are broken :( Follow this wiki if they dont work for you - - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=75284&page=15
[03:04] <ubotu> okay, Toma-
[03:04] <nm> chuckyp: the service isn't running! it was never working
[03:04] <Toma-> !spca5xx
[03:04] <ubotu> I heard spca5xx is Breezy drivers for spca5xx based webcams are broken :( Follow this wiki if they dont work for you - - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=75284&page=15
[03:05] <nm> since apt-get wouldn't work, i tried using dpkg -P vpopmail
[03:05] <ubuntu> anyone had your system hang on hotplug subsystem
[03:05] <nm> same error
[03:05] <nm> and since that didn't work, i changed the status and select state of vpopmail in /var/lib/dpkg/status
[03:05] <sudharsh> Toma-: the spca5xx problem u hav raised..is it only for breezy or is it troublesome for all the distros
[03:05] <chuckyp> nm, what error are you getting specifically?
[03:05] <Toma-> ubuntu, yep
[03:05] <nm> to half-installed and purge
[03:05] <nm> and it STILL doesn't work
[03:05] <nm> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9630
[03:05] <nm> that is the error the script generates
[03:06] <ubuntu> toma: how did you fix it
[03:06] <LinuxJones> nm: there's a fix-broken switch you can use I can't remember it offhand or you can do it in synaptic there's a fix broken packages option in there.
[03:06] <sudharsh> no wonder my stock kernel freezes when i use camorama
[03:06] <Toma-> sudharsh, just breezy. they were compiled for some un-godly reason in a conflicting gxx version
[03:06] <nm> and the (ridiculous) dpkg/dselect/apt-get system always tries to run the script instead of just uninstalling
[03:06] <concept10> Toma-, it is a quicktime file
[03:06] <sudharsh> Toma-: hehe
[03:06] <Toma-> ubuntu, i ran it in rescue mode then found out what was causing the problem, and removed it from my pc
[03:06] <chuckyp> nm, edit the script
[03:06] <Toma-> err gcc
[03:07] <Toma-> concept10, ahh. quicktime.
[03:07] <Toma-> concept10, have you got the quicktime codec or just w32codecs?
[03:07] <nm> nope
[03:07] <nm> same error
[03:07] <concept10> Toma-, I know I have w32, let me check quicktime
[03:07] <nm> when i use the fix switch
[03:08] <Toma-> !info libquicktime1
[03:08] <nm> chuckyp: the script doesn't even make reference to the file cited in the error message
[03:08] <ubotu> libquicktime1: (A library for reading and writing Quicktime files), section libs, is optional. Version: 0.9.3-2ubuntu2 (breezy), Packaged size: 261 kB, Installed size: 820 kB
[03:08] <concept10> Toma-, I have that
[03:08] <Toma-> hmm ok
[03:08] <concept10> ii  libquicktime1                          0.9.3-2ubuntu2
[03:08] <Toma-> personally, i wouldnt use totem.
[03:09] <drcode> hi all
[03:09] <Toma-> its an evil little frontend
[03:09] <drcode> I try to install dri.sourceforge.org in ubuntu
[03:09] <drcode> it install ok
[03:09] <drcode> what is libdri.a and libdri.so?
[03:09] <nm> bag it
[03:09] <concept10> Toma-, I dont see anything in VLC which is wierd, VLC usually handles _anything_
[03:09] <nm> deleted the script, and used apt-get remove
[03:09] <nm> that seems to have fixed it, but i'll have to verify
[03:09] <drcode> the driver update libdri.so
[03:10] <drcode> but still xorg load libdri.a
[03:10] <chuckyp> nm, the error is comming from it trying to stop the service.
[03:10] <Toma-> concept10, in mplayer you can pick what codec to use... i prefer that... just technically, i dunno :|
[03:10] <drcode> can I rebuild xorg ?
[03:10] <concept10> Toma-, I dont know what the problem is.  Probably something to do with me dicking around with XGL and those crappy ATI drivers
[03:11] <Toma-> concept10, nah, id say its the codec. whats your vo driver?
[03:11] <nm> chuckyp: yes, and it's shortsighted and ridiculous that apt-get/dpkg/dselect won't remove a package because of an error like that
[03:11] <chuckyp> nm, try mv /etc/init.d/vpopmail /home/nm/vpopmail
[03:11] <Toma-> err video output driver for totem-xine?
[03:11] <nm> therefore, my comment about debian still stands
[03:11] <chuckyp> nm, then apt-get remove it
[03:11] <adubz> toma- now do i do this
[03:11] <nm> chuckyp: i've already removed it with apt-get after removing the script
[03:11] <nm> thanks.
[03:11] <adubz> "linux rescue"  command with the installation cd ??  it goes like it loads and then i get a black screen
[03:11] <drcode> any help
[03:11] <chuckyp> nm, what script are you talkign about?
[03:11] <LinuxJones> nm: no package manager is perfect
[03:11] <chuckyp> nm, the service itself?
[03:11] <sudharsh> adubz: did grub show itself
[03:11] <concept10> Toma-, I using the stock "ati" driver, I dont see codec options in Totem
[03:12] <nm> linuxjones: it most certainly is not, thanks for coming out
[03:12] <adubz> same thing that would happen on installation but i disabled framebuffer console and then i could install
[03:12] <nm> chuckyp: the init script that starts the service
[03:12] <nm> and stops it
[03:12] <concept10> Where are those options in Totem?
[03:12] <concept10> Mplayer will not start on my system. CRAP
[03:12] <Toma-> concept10, like i said, i dont know totem sorry :(
[03:12] <sudharsh> concept10: remove totem that came with ubuntu..install totem-xine
[03:12] <yos87> hi
[03:13] <sudharsh> concept10: totem-xine plays well for me...the default is crap
[03:13] <deepwoodz> is there a apt get command to relaod my entire gstream package
[03:13] <chuckyp> nm, gotcha all apt was trying to do was stop the service which was f'd hence the error when that bombed it blew up.
[03:13] <deepwoodz> my sound isnt working
[03:13] <LinuxJones> nm: dude your being unreasonable complaining about a packaging glitch, file a bug on the package itself which is where the problem is.
[03:14] <nm> chuckyp: exactly, and when i use the purge switch in dpkg, it should _ignore_ the fact that the service doesn't stop and just remove it
[03:14] <concept10> sudharsh, I know that.  Thats what I used.  But it looks like when I upgraded to dapper, it probably defaulted back to totem-gstreamer
[03:14] <nm> linuxjones: the problem is with poorly written package management software, as i've already stated
[03:14] <concept10> sudharsh, thanks for the top
[03:14] <concept10> err... tip
[03:14] <chuckyp> LinuxJones, he's convinced that the problem is with apt rather than the messed up package.  He won't listen.
[03:14] <sudharsh> ;)
[03:14] <drcode> ?/quit
[03:14] <drcode> e
[03:14] <nm> i'm not disagreeing with you when you say that the package is messed up, but dpkg/apt-get could use some common sense rework
[03:15] <LinuxJones> chuckyp: what can you do :)
[03:15] <Toma-> nm, omg! opensource means you can file a bug :)
[03:15] <chuckyp> LinuxJones, go to sleep is what i'm going to do.
[03:15] <nm> Toma-: omg! thanks! what a revelation
[03:15] <Toma-> :D~
[03:15] <Toma-> adubz, http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-76652.html
[03:15] <deepwoodz> lol
[03:16] <sudharsh> 
[03:16] <deepwoodz> so im not the only person have sound issues?
[03:16] <deepwoodz> i canat hear shit
[03:16] <deepwoodz> i can adjust my volume when i click on it
[03:16] <concept10> sudharsh, totem-gstreamer isnt installed
[03:16] <adub> toma-  can i do linux rescue with the ubuntu installation cd
[03:16] <deepwoodz> it tells me to run gst-register <-- witch doesnt exist on my pc
[03:16] <chuckyp> nm, I think you should contact the creator of apt and advise him that you can't remove vpopmail in ubuntu because of an error with the package! and see what he says.  I'm sure he'll get right on fixing apt.
[03:16] <Toma-> deepwoodz, generally, shit doesnt make noise. unless its in the "being pooped" stage.
[03:16] <Toma-> adub, yes
[03:16] <echostorm> yay i have digital audio from xmms. a nice start. does anyone know the command to configure alsamixer? im trying to get system sounds from my digital outs (mainly for streaming media)
[03:16] <LinuxJones> nm: the package managment system has requirements as to how packages are supposed to work. People make mistakes and packages get messed up from time to time. It's not the package mangers fault that a package has errors.
[03:16] <Feerx> man isnt there any real unix/linux gurus out there that can help me whit the sed command? ben messing to get it right for over 3h
[03:16] <deepwoodz> lol funny
[03:16] <chuckyp> nm, or better yet fix apt yoruself.
[03:17] <chuckyp> anyways i'm off to bed.
[03:17] <sudharsh> concept10: totem-xine what bout that
[03:17] <deepwoodz> im a fan of the grunting
[03:17] <deepwoodz> lol
[03:17] <grndlvl_> problem with getting fglrx module to work only thing that has changed is "ati" to "fglrx" in the xorg.conf module is installed not sure why i keep getting error stating 'Module load failure'. There are no Errors('EE') in Xorg.0.log not really sure what the deal is any suggestions
[03:17] <nm> chuckyp: or I could contact him, and request a --force option, you know, common sense stuff
[03:17] <nm> linuxjones: but it IS the package manager's fault that there is no --force option for removing packages, for when packages are messed up in that manner
[03:17] <Toma-> echostorm, wait till crimson comes on-line, hes an audio guru
[03:17] <echostorm> ooh :)
[03:18] <deepwoodz> i fixed it
[03:18] <LinuxJones> nm: what package manager do you think is better ?
[03:18] <deepwoodz> im still alive im still the amn
[03:18] <Toma-> nm, there isnt?
[03:18] <echostorm> i can do that im off today its 'get linux to work day'
[03:18] <adub> toma- sorry my internet connection is choppy but can i do the linux rescue with the ubuntu installation cd it is not loading
[03:18] <nm> linuxjones: gentoo's, redhat's, suse's....the list goes on
[03:18] <TimothyP> HiddenFly, I'm using ubuntu server edition. The syslog files seems to be rotated into .#.gz files, but logrotate does not contain a configuration for this, what is rotating the logs ?
[03:18] <Toma-> adub, yes
[03:18] <sudharsh> adub: u dont tneed the net to recue
[03:18] <nm> toma-: there isn't, read the man pages if you don't want to take my word for it
[03:18] <sudharsh> else try booting from the live cd and chroot to ur existing installation
[03:18] <Toma-> ive read the man page.
[03:18] <LinuxJones> nm: that's funny !!
[03:19] <nm> linuxjones: not as funny as how fast you debian zealots responded to my comment
[03:19] <Toma-> nm, what were you trying to do?
[03:19] <nm> toma-: scroll up, i don't feel like explaining it to another zealot
[03:19] <nm> thanks
[03:19] <nm> =)
[03:19] <Toma-> zealot?
[03:19] <Toma-> u still here for help?
[03:19] <Toma-> if not, /quit
[03:19] <nm> actually usually i give the help
[03:20] <nm> and i'll /quit if and when i want, thanks.
[03:20] <sudharsh> ooops...people..plz
[03:20] <Toma-> i scrolled all the way up my buffer and all i saw was you complaining

[03:25] <TimothyP> M_A_K, look into sudo, dunno the details, but that should allow you to give some users the right to execute specific commands
[03:25] <Toma-> molkko_, hummm.... ssh then run top? http://www.linux.com/article.pl?sid=06/01/18/1932224

[03:27] <molkko_> well yes there are plenty of other load characteristics in top. i start with that probably
[03:27] <ricardo_> how can i install a sata hard disk in ubuntu?
[03:27] <Toma-> molkko_, anything more than top and youll be using system resources more than the stuff you want to monitor
[03:27] <molkko_> nagios seems to do the job but seems like a bit overkill at this stage
[03:27] <erchache> anybody install a distributed file system like coda, afs intermezzo?
[03:28] <molkko_> lol
[03:28] <erchache> what is the best and more easy to install?

[03:30] <M_A_K> TimothyP : I added the students to the sudo group, but it didn't seem to work.  Besides, I do not wish the students to be able to run everything, just be able to adjust the network settings.

[03:31] <asdfasdfasdfasdf> toma-   but there has  to be a proper command at the boot option to get a prompt to rescue machine if its not linux rescue and not rescue then what is it
[03:31] <mvv> i'am wondering, what do you get when you dist-upgrade breezy but keep the breezy sources.list ?
[03:31] <gopi> Linux_Kong: But anyway how to use it ?
[03:32] <shukhrat> Hello Dear Ubunru users !!!
[03:32] <Toma-> asdfasdfasdfasdf, tried pressing F1 or F3? theres a list of options. READ the damn splash screen
[03:32] <M_A_K> I have a classroom (new to linux) with 2 wireless nic's in each PC with 2 Wi-Fi Routers.  1 for internal network (connecting to a rack of routers to configure for a cisco class) and one for external network (internet).  The PC's keep defaulting back to the internal router as the default gateway.  So, I have to log in as admin and remove the default route for that router.  Is there a way I can prevent this from happening?
[03:32] <shukhrat> Ubuntu !
[03:32] <ricardo_> elkbuntu: the console said command unrecognize
[03:32] <|mp|> will 4 be the last Flight for Dapper before final realease?
[03:32] <Linux_Kong> gopi: dunnno man, just speculating
[03:33] <Toma-> |mp|, yep
[03:33] <elkbuntu> hmm.. odd... i thought gparted was installed with ubuntu..
[03:33] <asdfasdfasdfasdf> toma- which website
[03:33] <Toma-> !info gparted
[03:33] <|mp|> Toma- k
[03:33] <ubotu> gparted: (partition editor for GNOME), section gnome, is optional. Version: 0.0.8+cvs2005061901-0ubuntu4 (breezy), Packaged size: 236 kB, Installed size: 1260 kB
[03:33] <Toma-> asdfasdfasdfasdf, , http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-76652.html
[03:34] <elkbuntu> Toma-, gparted can initalise disks, right?
[03:34] <Ries> Heya all... ubuntu can't configure the network while installing the system. My good old Debian stable CD can configure the network at easy.... how would I go proceed and tackle this problem? I wanted to install teh server...
[03:34] <Toma-> i think so
[03:34] <LinuxJones> M_A_K: do you have the default gateway set for your internal network from within network-admin for your nic cards on the client machines ?
[03:34] <Toma-> wont format them
[03:34] <TimothyP> M_A_K, there are scripts in /etc/network/   --> interfaces to define the settings of the interface when they go up, and also in the sub dirs if-up.d/ you can place scripts to be executed when they go up, might help
[03:34] <elkbuntu> Toma-, can cfdisk initalise?
[03:34] <shukhrat> good evening everyone! I can't modify, delete, or rename files in /var/www/ directory. Property says the owner is www-data and group www-data. How can I change the files? And how to become root for graphic X-server? Thanks!
[03:34] <Toma-> no idea
[03:35] <elkbuntu> ricardo_, try installing gparted to get the disk initialised
[03:35] <TimothyP> simply add the command :     gateway X.X.X.X to interfaces under the section of the correct interface
[03:35] <Ng> shukhrat: the easiest way might be to add your user to the www-data group ("sudo adduser yourusername www-data"
[03:35] <Toma-> shukhrat, add yourself to the www-data group?
[03:35] <Toma-> :P
[03:35] <elkbuntu> ricardo_, then if as toma says, it cannot format it, use cfdisk for that
[03:36] <Toma-> err by format i mean mkfs
[03:36] <Toma-> wont format it to a useable filesystem, iirc
[03:36] <Ries> could it maby be a kernel issue? 2.6.12 kernel?!? (if I remember correctly)
[03:36] <gopi> Ng: Hello! Do u have any idea of recording in xawtv ??
[03:36] <Ng> gopi: yeah, it's not very good at it ;)
[03:36] <shukhrat> ng, toma: how to open X-server using root account?
[03:36] <gopi> Ng: oh :(
[03:37] <Ng> gopi: recording from bttv cards generally isn't very good, unfortunately, but I would hope there are better tools, perhaps something like mencoder
[03:37] <Toma-> shukhrat, why on earth would you want that?
[03:37] <chmod775> maxkelley, hi
[03:37] <LadyNikon> shukhrat: why?
[03:37] <gopi> Ng: And does TVtime has recording facility?
[03:37] <Ng> gopi: not sure
[03:37] <phonezone> i have just instaled ubuntu and i tryed to connect to id froam another cpu and i couldn't, any ideeas why ? It sayd conection refused.
[03:37] <Toma-> tvtime doesnt record
[03:37] <LadyNikon> shukhrat: you can log in as user then su to root
[03:37] <phonezone> *to it
[03:37] <shukhrat> to rename, modify files without any restriction
[03:37] <derek[] > Hi
[03:37] <Toma-> gopi, use mythtv or freevo or something
[03:38] <Ng> phonezone: connect how? ssh? if so you need to install openssh-server, it's not included by default
[03:38] <Linux_Kong> gopi: zapping?
[03:38] <phonezone> yes ssh ng
[03:38] <shukhrat> i don't wanna user terminal
[03:38] <Toma-> theres a new tv recorder out... i for get it tho :(
[03:38] <shukhrat> use*
[03:38] <derek[] > Does anyone know how to change the colour of the command prompt line in the terminal to something else than white?
[03:38] <phonezone> and how can i install it ?
[03:38] <_jason> phonezone: install openssh-server
[03:38] <gopi> Linux_Kong: zapping is another TV s/w ?
[03:38] <LadyNikon> derek[] : change the profile.
[03:38] <Ng> !tell shukhrat about root
[03:38] <TimothyP> What takes care of log rotation on ubuntu ?
[03:38] <Linux_Kong> gopi: yeah
[03:38] <_jason> ubotu: tell phonezone about synaptic
[03:38] <Ng> TimothyP: logrotate
[03:38] <ubuntunoob> hey all
[03:39] <gopi> Toma-: I tried a lot to install mythtv but in vain !  But let me try freevo....
[03:39] <ubuntunoob> can anyone help me with installing 'make'
[03:39] <LadyNikon> derek[] : under terminal you can change the profile.
[03:39] <TimothyP> Ng, that's weird, my logrotate.conf file doesn't have an entry for /var/log/syslog and yet it does rotate the log
[03:39] <_jason> ubuntunoob: 'sudo aptitude install build-essential'
[03:39] <Ries> anyother place for help for installing issues?
[03:39] <Toma-> gopi, i failed to install freevo.
[03:39] <ubuntunoob> what is that?
[03:39] <Ries> seems like 666 people is to much here...
[03:39] <derek[] > LadyNikon, I have created those profiles and they don't do what I'm asking for.
[03:39] <gopi> Linux_Kong: How to get zapping ?
[03:39] <_jason> ubuntunoob: install the package build-essential, that is a command that will install it using aptitude (just put it in the terminal)
[03:39] <LadyNikon> derek[] : oh? what are you trying to do..
[03:39] <Toma-> time 4 bed.
[03:39] <Toma-> cyas
[03:39] <Linux_Kong> apt my friend
[03:39] <Ng> TimothyP: perhaps it just does that by default or something. I suggest consulting its docs :)
[03:40] <gopi> Toma-: oh i see :( What system yours is ? 64 bit ?
[03:40] <LadyNikon> derek[] : right now mine is green and black
[03:40] <TimothyP> :)
[03:40] <LadyNikon> derek[] : although i have issues with the default terminal .. i tend to use x-term or e-term.
[03:40] <derek[] > LadyNikon, I want to change the colour of this part "derek@ubuntu:~$" to something else than white
[03:41] <Ng> derek[] : google for a bash prompt howto
[03:41] <LadyNikon> ah
[03:41] <derek[] > ok ng
[03:42] <once> someone has solved the problem with xorg & pci_express  ???
[03:42] <_jason> derek[] : take a look at your ~/.bashrc too, there should be a commented part that changed it to blue and green iirc.  Then just lookup the color codes
[03:42] <derek[] > ok _jason , thx
[03:42] <elkbuntu> heh.. that was odd. isnt /var/www usually www-data owned and grouped? i just noted mine was root owned and grouped
[03:43] <Ries> can I install ubuntu with a other kernel then the one supplied on my CD?
[03:43] <once> anyone got an ati x850 working in ubuntu ?
[03:43] <once> (pci express ati x850)
[03:43] <LadyNikon> Ries: once you install it.. you can also change kernels
[03:43] <goldplatedpentiu> im tryin 2 run dual monitors on 2 cheap (non-ati) cards, help!!!!!!
[03:43] <adub> sweet thanks toma- the link you provided worked hassle free
[03:43] <Ries> LadyNikon: I just found one kernel....
[03:43] <LadyNikon> Ries: i installed it.. then installed the smp kernel since its a dual p3
[03:44] <LadyNikon> Ries: after the install?
[03:44] <Ries> LadyNikon: Maby it's teh CD I have that has just one kernel...
[03:44] <m4steR> hi all
[03:44] <chr1z> once: yeah i got my friends working fine
[03:44] <m4steR> sorry, a question
[03:44] <LadyNikon> Ries: yeah.. after you install
[03:44] <LadyNikon> you get to update everything
[03:44] <m4steR> i can't go on with the ati drivers installation
[03:44] <elkbuntu> Ries, did you look in apt/synaptic?
[03:44] <LadyNikon> it gives you the lastest supported kernel.
[03:44] <kenroy_> i am thinking of buying a laptop to dos some software development  (linux,windows,web programming,etc..)from dell and i want to know what are some good parts i should add when customizing the system
[03:44] <LadyNikon> as well as a few others
[03:44] <m4steR> because the window is too long
[03:44] <once> chrlz working fine with X11 ???
[03:44] <m4steR> howto?
[03:44] <goldplatedpentiu> im tryin 2 run dual monitors on 2 cheap (non-ati) cards, help!!!!!!
[03:45] <Ries> elkbuntu: I simply did apt-cache search linux-image
[03:45] <Ng> goldplatedpentiu: you need to investigate xinerama
[03:45] <once> chrlz can you help me ?
[03:45] <elkbuntu> Ries, use kernel as the search term, see what that brings up
[03:45] <_jason> m4steR: try not to use enter as punctuation.  It makes hard to follow your question.  Try using arrow keys/page down keys
[03:45] <m4steR> ok, let's try
[03:45] <once> chrlz i got gdm and x11 not working and "no screen found" error
[03:46] <Ng> _jason: arroy keys/page down keys?
[03:46] <gopi> How to install freevo ??
[03:46] <Ng> _jason: surely some actual punctuation is preferably? ;)
[03:46] <Ng> -y+e
[03:46] <elkbuntu> once, since when has this happened?
[03:46] <goldplatedpentiu> i have 2 cards but only one gives an image!!! i dont use xine
[03:46] <elkbuntu> once, and, are you using dapper?
[03:46] <Ries> elkbuntu: LadyNikon: rebooting and going to take a look
[03:46] <_jason> Ng: heh I thought that might get confused :)
[03:46] <once> clean install of breezy 5.10 from DVD yesterday
[03:46] <gopi> I tried sudo apt-get install freevo but it said E: Couldn't find package freevo
[03:46] <m4steR> nothing :(
[03:47] <goldplatedpentiu> y cant it b easy like xp
[03:47] <m4steR> _jason,  nothing to do
[03:47] <once> some guru here told me to change xorg.conf adding "option PCIE" to the device configuration
[03:47] <once> the mod probe find a x850pro
[03:47] <_jason> m4steR: someone needs to add what to do to the wiki, remind me once we figure it out or someone else tells us
[03:48] <once> elkbuntu what is dapper ?
[03:48] <elkbuntu> once, the development/unstable version of ubuntu
[03:48] <gr> How can I update from Breezy to dapper, or should I even do it?
[03:48] <once> uhmmmm i didn't jason
[03:48] <elkbuntu> once, if you dont know it then i dont think you have it
[03:49] <_jason> once: ?
[03:49] <Ng> gr: it's not a very good idea if you're not familiar with the internals of debian-like systems
[03:49] <Ng> gr: and it's not long till it's released now :)
[03:49] <elkbuntu> gr, it's currently safe... and it's apt-get dist-upgrade, but be very aware that there is possible breakage. earlier there was a major gtk breakage
[03:49] <goldplatedpentiu> i need dual monitors 4 work, vry tempted 2 go bck 2 xp
[03:49] <once> i only try several configuration of X11
[03:49] <gr> so, I should wait for the release?
[03:50] <_jason> m4steR: can you link me to the file you downloaded?
[03:50] <Ries> elkbuntu: LadyNikon: I just have a 2.6.12-9 kernel.... and with my network doesn't work.... I added a static entry in /etc/network/interfaces and run ifup eth0.... that works without a problem
[03:50] <Ng> goldplatedpentiu: it doesn't seem like anyone in here has any hints for you, so I suggest googling for a xinerama howto
[03:50] <once> so jason do you think i need to change xorg.conf or try with unstable ?
[03:50] <Ries> elkbuntu: LadyNikon: but when I try to ping my gateway (same network, netmask is good and my network address is good) then I get distination host unreacheable
[03:50] <elkbuntu> Ries, make sure it's not listening on eth1 or something
[03:51] <gr> if I dist-upgrade, do I have to modify the repository list in /etc/apt?
[03:51] <elkbuntu> gr yes
[03:51] <Ries> elkbuntu: then ifup eth0 would fail.....
[03:51] <shukhrat> Toma
[03:51] <ubuntunoob> thanks, that worked, what did I just install?
[03:51] <lucasvo_> anybody has set up sftp?
[03:51] <lucasvo_> is there a server which doesn't require a systemuser for every sftp user?
[03:51] <Ries> elkbuntu: I have done this many many times on Debian on several servers.....
[03:52] <elkbuntu> Ries, then you know more about it than i. i was only suggesting ideas
[03:52] <Ries> elkbuntu: normally con fiurating network is a snap for me.....
[03:52] <gr> I see... so I change all occurrences of breezy to dapper?
[03:52] <elkbuntu> Ries, maybe a package reconfigure could help *shrugs*
[03:52] <Ries> elkbuntu: well.. I din't know ubuntu..  and I just see a awefull lot of things are loaded I don't know of
[03:52] <shukhrat> i could't still change anythink in /var/www
[03:52] <Ng> lucasvo_: no, but maybe have a look at the scponly package?
[03:52] <elkbuntu> Ries, i dont know what package that would be though
[03:52] <shukhrat> Ng i could't still change anythink in /var/www
[03:52] <lucasvo_> Ng: thanks
[03:53] <Ries> shrugs is another cartoon character?!?!?!
[03:53] <elkbuntu> shukhrat, what are the curent permissions of your /var/www?
[03:53] <Ng> shukhrat: you'd probably need to log out and back in for it to take effect
[03:53] <m4steR> _jason, https://a248.e.akamai.net/f/674/9206/0/www2.ati.com/drivers/linux/ati-driver-installer-8.22.5-i386.run
[03:53] <elkbuntu> Ries, no, shrugs is where you shrug
[03:53] <shukhrat> i will try to log out and get back, thanksQ
[03:54] <_jason> m4steR: ok I'll try it even though I have an nvidia :)
[03:54] <Ries> elkbuntu: I am lost.... maby I should ask my gf to shrug me?!?!
[03:54] <elkbuntu> Ries, its where you raise your shoulders a bit as a gesture of not being sure...cant think how else to explain it
[03:55] <m4steR> ok
[03:55] <marc_Collins> hello, I just installed ubuntu and it works great.  One question: my mouse works find until X launches.  It then goes nuts.  I am using a KVM, but have never had this kind of issue b4.  Has anyone come across something similar, where mouse is way too sensitive (non-contrlable) and always moves up and right?
[03:55] <Ries> elkbuntu: hehehe
[03:55] <elkbuntu> Ries, understand?
[03:56] <_jason> m4steR: hrmm shows all the way on 1600x1200 but it seems to change choices with up and down, but that doesn't change screen location?
[03:56] <Ries> elkbuntu: I'll ask my GF :)
[03:56] <once> It is really good to get advice from all you guys, but....is there actually someone out there with a PCI-E based ATI card, that got UBUNTU 5.10 to start up correctly I wonder?
[03:57] <Ng> marc_Collins: what mouse protocol is configured in /etc/X11/xorg.conf?
[03:57] <marc_Collins> It is a ps2 mouse
[03:57] <madmonk> hi all
[03:57] <marc_Collins> Having a real hard time getting anythign going
[03:57] <madmonk> i need help with totem!
[03:57] <marc_Collins> but I will doublecheck
[03:57] <madmonk> cen anyone help me?
[03:57] <madmonk> can*
[03:57] <marc_Collins> box is at home, I am at work, looking for ideas
[03:58] <raghu> madmonk, what is the problem?
[03:58] <shukhrat> Ng: no success
[03:58] <ricardo_> elkbuntu: thanks, now i have partition the new hard drive
[03:58] <madmonk> I can't make totem able to use codecs
[03:58] <m4steR> _jason, i can with up and down, but i have an error
[03:58] <Ng> marc_Collins: if it's set to IMPS/2 try changing it to just PS/2
[03:58] <raghu> madmonk: have you installed codecs?
[03:58] <_jason> m4steR: what error?
[03:58] <madmonk> I downloaded Windows All from mplayer website
[03:58] <marc_Collins> Ng, did manage to go to GUI prefs and did not see anything unusual, but then not sure what I am looking for. (I am fairly new to *nix)
[03:58] <_jason> madmonk: install totem-xine
[03:58] <C-O-L-T> Can I open m4v file in ubuntu
[03:58] <madmonk> cause I need to play wmv files
[03:59] <once> It is really good to get advice from all you guys, but....is there actually someone out there with a PCI-E based high-end ATI card, that got UBUNTU 5.10 to start up correctly I wonder?
[03:59] <madmonk> I did it
[03:59] <madmonk> I hve totem-xine workin
[03:59] <Ng> marc_Collins: those preferences would be unlikely to affect it much, it sounds like it's not interpreting the input properly
[03:59] <_jason> madmonk: where did you put the codecs?
[03:59] <marc_Collins> NG I can usually get to a shell, I will edit the file /etc/X11/xorg.conf?
[03:59] <madmonk> I don't know where to put them
[03:59] <m4steR> error: vcdk is missing
[03:59] <m4steR> _jason
[03:59] <madmonk> that's the question :)
[03:59] <shukhrat> i have my own index.html and i just want to replace the original index.html. But computer says You have no permission.
[03:59] <_jason> madmonk: forget about them and just install w32codecs, it's a package for them
[03:59] <Ng> shukhrat: hmm, weird. I suppose you could just chown -R the directory to your user, but that's not ideal really
[03:59] <_jason> ubuntunoob: tell madmonk about w32codecs
[03:59] <Ng> marc_Collins: yeah
[03:59] <madmonk> synaptic?
[03:59] <marc_Collins> Ng, agree with you, mouse works perfect during GUI boot, only when X launches formally does issue start
[04:00] <_jason> madmonk: see the private messagae from ubotu
[04:00] <C-O-L-T> _jason: can I open m4v video file in linux?
[04:00] <madmonk> ok
[04:00] <adub> i have an NTFS filesystem that I want user to browse and be able to have full reign over it is currently a read only file system is there a way i can grant user full rights to the filesystem
[04:00] <_jason> C-O-L-T: maybe? what is it
[04:00] <shukhrat> i have my own index.html and i just want to replace the original index.html. But computer says You have no permission.
[04:00] <C-O-L-T> _jason: ipod video format
[04:00] <Ng> C-O-L-T: if you follow the various codec instructions on the RestrictedFormats wiki page you should be able to play them at least with mplayer, if not all of the media players
[04:00] <erus`> im trying to compile an C++ application that uses the std lib. but i get these errors main.cc:(.text+0x25): undefined reference to `std::cout' IOSTREAM IS INCLUDED
[04:01] <_jason> erus`: no need for caps, what command are you using to compile?
[04:01] <erus`> gcc -o app main.cc
[04:01] <marc_Collins> Ng I will investigate the xorg.conf file.  I will also grab another mouse and bypass the KVM.  Have you heard of KVMs causing problems?  Any other suggestions?
[04:02] <elkbuntu> ricardo_, glad i could help :)
[04:02] <shukhrat> Ng, how can I become a user that can delete, modify, or rename any files in the computer?
[04:02] <C-O-L-T> Ng: thanks
[04:02] <_jason> erus`: use g++ for c++
[04:02] <erus`> ah ok
[04:02] <Ng> marc_Collins: yeah they can cause some weirdness. beyond that though I think you'll need to google
[04:02] <m4steR> _jason, error: vcdk is missing
[04:02] <Ng> !tell shukhrat about root
[04:02] <Ng> shukhrat: see what ubotu just messaged you
[04:02] <_jason> m4steR: remeber I don't use ati, so you may want to address the channel
[04:02] <shukhrat> thanks
[04:02] <erus`> cheers jason... i though i changed it in my make file :/ i didnt. thanks again
[04:02] <m4steR> mmm
[04:03] <alheim> does anybody have issue with A6VC laptop and ubuntu dist ?
[04:03] <marc_Collins> Ng, Thanks very much, Google is the faunt of all human knowledge and that will be my next stop.  Much appreciated
[04:03] <_jason> C-O-L-T: yes, I am playing one right now with mplayer
[04:03] <m4steR> so, I will install xorg drivers
[04:04] <m4steR> fglrx
[04:04] <C-O-L-T> _jason: ok
[04:04] <C-O-L-T> _jason: tahnks
[04:04] <_jason> C-O-L-T: note however this is my own compiled mplayer
[04:06] <newbie-ubuntu> anybody here uses Matlab 7, here?
[04:06] <_jason> m4steR: I got that error too, it went away when I selected ubuntu breezy using shift+space, and then went down to continue and presssed shoft+space again
[04:07] <newbie-ubuntu> any mathematician?

[04:09] <fwsp> hi there
[04:09] <administrator> jojo
[04:09] <fwsp> can anyone tell me, how can I install xvid or divx codec?
[04:10] <alheim> search google
[04:10] <_jason> ubotu: tell fwsp about w32codecs
[04:10] <_jason> fwsp: you will want to install totem-xine as well to make totem work with them
[04:11] <chmod775> maxkelley, u there ?
[04:11] <fwsp> _jason:  is totem-xine a package?
[04:11] <_jason> fwsp: yes, you can install totem-xine through synaptic.  For w32codecs just follow the instructions in your private message
[04:11] <madmonk> thank u!!! w32codecs worked!!
[04:12] <madmonk> bye..have a nice day! :)
[04:12] <fwsp> ok

[04:18] <Mwafrika> Any on here from East Africa?
[04:19] <Mwafrika> Any one here from East Africa?
[04:19] <echostorm> ahh... screwy. how do i eject a cd/dvd?
[04:19] <gnomefreak> ok i installed the nvidia fx5200 and now i have no X it crashes what do i need to do to get ubuntu to use the nvidia card? i tried disabling the onboard card but guess i did that wrong :(
[04:19] <tomislav_medak> hi, does anyone know where should i place the scripts and programs i want the gdm to execute before it loads a window manager - in this case ion3
[04:20] <xpjiang> Is there any soft like flashget
[04:20] <echostorm> i know how crazy that sounds but its getting locked after ubuntu loads and i need to change cds lol
[04:21] <seraphim> echostorm: there should be an icon on your desktop
[04:21] <fwsp> _jason: thanx, thanx, thanx.... it works!
[04:22] <seraphim> right-click it and eject
[04:22] <HkR> slt
[04:22] <_jason> fwsp: np, I like mplayer as a media player a lot better if you want to try taht
[04:22] <seraphim> another option would be going to a terminal an typeing "sudo eject"
[04:22] <fwsp> _jason: I have another question for you, english is no my first language, so how can I play the movies with (sub, str...) subtitles?
[04:23] <fwsp> are there any plug-in?
[04:23] <_jason> fwsp: I am pretty sure mplayer does that.  I don't play any movies with subtitles so I don't know how to set it up in totem
[04:23] <echostorm> that worked, thanx no icon for some reason
[04:24] <fwsp> no matter, thanx
[04:26] <Feerx> can anyone help me whit the SED command? i want to add "something" to the end of every line containing "100".. sed s/$/something adds it to every line
[04:26] <sylvan> hmm... I added some sessions in the systems->preferences->sessions but it seems like it's imposible to delete them? There's a delete button but it's grayed out.. Help?
[04:27] <dr_Willis> Feerx:  you need touse a regular expression/pattern instead of just '$' its doing exactly what you told it to do.
[04:28] <dr_Willis> or am i backwards... egads.. i aint sed'ed in ages
[04:28] <Amaranth> People are trying to get that medicine mask thing into Ubuntu again. *shudder*

[04:31] <Kr4t05> I'm tryubg to set up my router's port-forwarding.
[04:31] <Amaranth> Dr_Willis: It's naked people facing away from you or lying on their stomachs
[04:31] <dr_Willis> Amaranth:  we need to have a RFC/Standard/ISO standard for Wallpaper and locations of it!
[04:31] <dr_Willis> Amaranth:  Cool. :P lol.. wonder where it saved the files to.
[04:31] <Amaranth> Dr_Willis: I use ~/.Wallpaper
[04:31] <dr_Willis> they dont seem to be showing up in the default wallpaper stuff.
[04:32] <_jason> dr_Willis: /usr/share/backgrounds/
[04:32] <Amaranth> Dr_Willis: Did you install them?
[04:32] <dr_Willis> Amaranth:  i think i did. :P looking in /usr/share/wallpaper  again

[04:38] <Ratty_> i'm using the latest offical ati drivers and trying to use 1280x768 resolution but no matter what i do it won't use it, is this a known issue?
[04:38] <lezouave> bonjour
[04:38] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell Ratty_ about fixres
[04:38] <lezouave> je cherche le chan francais
[04:38] <gnomefreak> !fr
[04:38] <ubotu> it has been said that fr is Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais
[04:39] <Ng> gnomefreak: perhaps check the bios for an option to disable the onboard vga
[04:39] <johndarkhorse> lezouave: #ubuntu-fr
[04:39] <Ng> gnomefreak: failing that it is possible to put a pci id for the nvidia card in xorg.conf
[04:39] <gnomefreak> Ng: the doc scoop was all i saw for vc
[04:39] <Ng> gnomefreak: I have no idea what doc scoop is
[04:39] <gnomefreak> Ng: dont know how to do it that way
[04:40] <gnomefreak> that makes 2 of us
[04:40] <gnomefreak> lol
[04:40] <Ratty_> should ddcprobe cause a seg fault?
[04:40] <one> anyone willing to help with some sound card issues?
[04:41] <gnomefreak> i used w3m to get dells number but that didnt work either w3m couldnt bring up the support page
[04:41] <Ratty_> that fixvideo page was no help
[04:41] <gnomefreak> Ng: also i installed nvidia-settings and went to install nvidia-gxl and it removed the settings one :(
[04:41] <dr_Willis> gnomefreak:  you called Dell support for a Linux question?
[04:41] <johndarkhorse> gnomefreak: use links2
[04:42] <Ng> gnomefreak: that doesn't sound right
[04:42] <gnomefreak> johndarkhorse: i cant it fails to start
[04:42] <johndarkhorse> gnomefreak: try lynx
[04:42] <gnomefreak> Ng: thats what i said too but i did it 3 times
[04:42] <Ratty_> 1600x1200@85hz works, but i want 1280x768@60hz, which it doesn't let me use even though i specified it in my xorg.conf
[04:42] <dr_Willis> gnomefreak:  try a live cd..if its x config works.. copy it over.. and start comparing the 2.
[04:43] <gnomefreak> ok ill brb let me try this and yes id call dell trying to find the onboard card shut off
[04:43] <gnomefreak> bbs i hope
[04:43] <gnomefreak> exit
[04:43] <gnomefreak> grrrrrrrrrr
[04:44] <Ratty_> so...
[04:44] <Ratty_> should the offical ati drivers support 1280x768?
[04:44] <dr_Willis> wide screen.. id think so
[04:45] <guim> hi all , i read this  : http://help.ubuntu.com/starterguide/C/ch03.html#sect-music-and-movies but I still can't read wmv file
[04:45] <Ratty_> it does 1280x720
[04:45] <guim> what should I do?
[04:45] <dr_Willis> my x200 supports widescreen with the ati drivers
[04:45] <Ratty_> i'm on an x800pro
[04:45] <guim> (i am using multiverse)
[04:46] <dr_Willis> could check out that 'modeline generator' web site - and let it generate a  proper modeline. Or test out some live cd's
[04:46] <guim> anyone to tell how to read .wmv file with totem?
[04:46] <saniX> hi guys
[04:46] <guim> I can't :(
[04:47] <Ratty_> live cd's don't use offical ati drivers
[04:47] <Absenth> does anyone know of a how-to for configuring/using "aide" on ubuntu?
[04:47] <fatehaze> Does Ubuntu work on VIA ITX computer boards?
[04:48] <dr_Willis> Ratty_:  some other then ubuntu's do. :P the default ubuntu drivers set up my widescreen correctly - i recall also.
[04:48] <fatehaze> Specifically, the onboard graphics?
[04:48] <saniX> hi guys
[04:48] <dr_Willis> fatehaze:  id think so. you mean the little epia boards?
[04:48] <Ratty_> refuses to for me :/
[04:48] <saniX> guim, try VLC
[04:48] <Ng> fatehaze: debian works on my epia M10000, which means ubuntu almost certainly should
[04:48] <Ratty_> Xorg.0.log doesn't even list the mode
[04:48] <fatehaze> I'm trying to set up a machine to handle communications at an observatory
[04:49] <ccooke> Ng: yes, ubuntu works on an M10000
[04:49] <fatehaze> I tried SUSE first but it didn't work with the onboard graphics
[04:49] <fatehaze> Sweet
[04:49] <ccooke> I have one installed atm
[04:49] <dr_Willis> thers even a epia linux disrto I thought. :P
[04:49] <guim> saniX, totem won't support them?
[04:49] <fatehaze> Thanks guys, I might have some more questions in a bit
[04:50] <Ratty_> http://ratty.ath.cx/xorg.log
[04:50] <saniX> guim, it's support more type ...try
[04:50] <edward0> fatehaze: if ubuntu can so can suse maybe not "out-of-the-box" but it still can :)
[04:50] <guim> ok i try
[04:50] <fatehaze> SUSE wasn't my first choice anyway :P
[04:50] <LadyNikon> ha
[04:50] <LadyNikon> fatehaze: disclaimer ;)
[04:51] <fatehaze> But whenever someone mentions linux, I jump at the chance to pimp Ubuntu
[04:51] <z3r0x> does anybody know how to extract a xbox iso file? I want to move the files to my xbox
[04:51] <guim> i got the sound, but no image
[04:51] <edward0> fatehaze: lol
[04:51] <fatehaze> I'm no expert on it but I'm certainly a fanboy
[04:51] <fatehaze> I bought a bumper sticker :D
[04:51] <guim> :-(
[04:51] <dr_Willis> "Linux: Phear the Penguinista!"
[04:52] <fatehaze> I recently installed Ubuntu on one of Phil Zimmermann's laptops
[04:52] <kickbutty> hello
[04:52] <alheim> does anybody have issue with A6VC laptop and ubuntu dist ?
[04:52] <dr_Willis> THE Phil Zimmermann?
[04:52] <fatehaze> Yeah
[04:52] <ompaul> fatehaze, kewl
[04:52] <dr_Willis> :P
[04:52] <fatehaze> It's his first real foray into linux, if you'll believe it
[04:53] <fatehaze> He's pretty evangelical about OS X
[04:53] <LadyNikon> fatehaze: ubuntu and gentoo (currently) are my favs
[04:54] <edward0> bloody ricers :D
[04:54] <ompaul> fatehaze, with that :-)    --->>http://www.gnupg.org/
[04:55] <fatehaze> Nice
[04:55] <fatehaze> We're working on zphone right now
[04:56] <fatehaze> Phil is hurting for money, so new project
[04:56] <curley_sue> !volume
[04:56] <ubotu> Bugger all, I dunno. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, curley_sue

[04:56] <fatehaze> He lost over a million dollars in the stock trade :P
[04:56] <jlhenry> Hi
[04:56] <fatehaze> Oh, here's the exact board model - epia PD6000E
[04:56] <fatehaze> Think Ubuntu'll work on that?
[04:57] <curley_sue> Hi all! Does anybody know how to control the audio volune from the console?
[04:57] <BpSyC> hi, you ubuntus, did anyone know about a problem running a cd-wrhiter on an ibm thinkpad r52 whith dapper drake, i read somesthing that there are problems with scsi cd wrhiter with ubuntu kernel 2.6.15
[04:57] <jlhenry> Does anyone knows the "tar" syntaxe for: "ssh remotehost ls | tar czf test.tgz" ?
[04:57] <BpSyC> curley_sue: alsamixer?
[04:58] <jlhenry> I tied this ""ssh remotehost ls | tar czf test.tgz" and ""ssh remotehost ls | tar czf test.tgz -" ... nothing works
[04:58] <dradul> jlhenry, ssh luser@remotehost "the commands"
[04:58] <jlhenry> dradul, the ssh is not an issue
[04:59] <dradul> jlhentry, use forward ticks if you need to protect commands from shell expansion.
[04:59] <AngryElf> hey all, how can i find out what kernel modules have been built into my existing kernel?
[04:59] <jlhenry> dradul, i do ssh login@host with ssh-key identification
[05:00] <jlhenry> dradul, can you tel me further?
[05:00] <dradul> jlhenry, that doesn't really matter ;-). What matters is that you have to protect the commands from shell expansion. Try with 'blh' instead of "blah"
[05:00] <dradul> jlhentry, I'm referring to expansion in the local shell, of course.
[05:00] <edward1> Hello ... again :D
[05:01] <saniX> Guys, Did ubuntu has CD for Software with out install by apt?
[05:01] <edward1> second time gnome froze when using gDesklets, does anyone else have this problem?
[05:01] <jlhenry> dradul, k but i do not see where i need to put protection
[05:01] <Absenth> is anyone familiar with "aide"
[05:01] <edward1> saniX: the live cd has windows software I do believe
[05:02] <dradul> jlhenry, try this ssh you@remotehost 'ls | tar czf test.tgz'
[05:02] <jlhenry> In fact, i need to do the opposit of : ssh remotehost "cat ${TMPFILE}.tar" | tar xv
[05:03] <jlhenry> dradul, no. I need to do a local tar file of the remote ls result
[05:03] <Extreme_Unction> Does anyone know where I can get a Java 1.6.0 or 1.5.0 deb package?
[05:03] <jlhenry> in reality, i do on the remote host a slapcat and i like to do a local backup of the result.
[05:03] <thenuke> jlhenry: would it then be easier to generate the tar in the remote control?
[05:03] <curley_sue> BpSyC, Cheers!
[05:03] <edward1> jlhenry: you could use nc and ssh port forwarding :)
[05:03] <thenuke> jlhenry: and then transfer that
[05:04] <jlhenry> thenuke, i would prefere doing i in one connexion
[05:04] <dradul> jlhenry, that's differnet! Something like this: ssh remotehost 'cat ${TMPFILE}.tar' > local-${TMPFILE}.tar, right?
[05:04] <jlhenry> but yes, it is possible to do in in 2 steps
[05:05] <jlhenry> http://www.linux.com/article.pl?sid=06/01/12/1937210
[05:05] <curley_sue> Extreme_Unction, do u mean Java of Sun (for firefox and so on)?
[05:05] <jlhenry> thoses exemple do local backup on remote host
[05:05] <Extreme_Unction> Yeah, Sun Java.
[05:05] <jlhenry> i'd like to do the opposit: remote backup on local
[05:05] <curley_sue> Extreme_Unction, do u have breezy?
[05:06] <BpSyC> edward1: i have the same problem,
[05:06] <saniX> edward1, no, i mean Full packges
[05:06] <dradul> jlhentry, you can in fact pipe it through the net.  ssh remotehost 'ls | xargs tar cxf -' > mylocal.tar.gz
[05:06] <saniX> nn
[05:06] <jlhenry> and i'm quite sure that this is possible
[05:06] <saniX> no problem ;p
[05:06] <Extreme_Unction> 5.10 I have...
[05:06] <Parallax_> hi, I just bought a Fujitsu Amilo V2040 and the sound is not working, can someone help me?
[05:06] <dradul> jlhenry, tar czf, blush
[05:07] <Parallax_> its a Intel sound card
[05:08] <curley_sue> Extreme_Unction, than the instructions for downloading and installing are in the HELP (ububntu 5.10 Starter Guide) under Applications -> Java . just make sure you choose the updated (6) instead of what there...
[05:08] <edward1> Parallax_: http://www.alsa-project.org/
[05:08] <iceman> anyone know where i can get the moodin plugin for kde ...
[05:08] <edward1> Parallax_: there is a list which should tell you if your soundcard is supported and give you directions on how to get it working
[05:08] <Parallax_> I know there is a patch but I dont know how to apply it
[05:09] <Parallax_> http://sq5bpm.sp5zcc.waw.pl/v2040.php
[05:09] <M_A_K> I am a linux newbie teaching a cisco networking class in a high school. I am looking for some assistance with setting up users.
[05:09] <curley_sue> !tell me about paste
[05:10] <colm> M_A_K, using command line or Gnome?
[05:10] <M_A_K> Gnome/KDE
[05:10] <colm> M_A_K, System > Administration > Users and Groups
[05:10] <M_A_K> I wish to give them access to certain administrative functions without giving them total access.
[05:10] <edward1> iceman: ksplash-engine-moodin - Fading KDE splash screen engine ?
[05:10] <Aragorn_Guardian> hi alll
[05:11] <colm> M_A_K, use groups then
[05:11] <M_A_K> colm : I know how to create users.
[05:11] <echostorm> i was wondering if there was a way to make a shortcut for the startbar like cd /home/user/windows sudo wine emule.exe ... kinda stupid but it would e good to know
[05:11] <colm> M_A_K, which functions?
[05:11] <GutterPunk> Hi, I have a problem with my keyboard in ubuntu. The "ALT GR" key doesn't work
[05:11] <Aragorn_Guardian> I need know how can I make a ubuntu live cd...where can I get info?
[05:11] <Aragorn_Guardian> ?live cd
[05:11] <dr_Willis> echostorm:  make a shell script that does it. then call the shel script, but using sudo that way.. may not be easy.
[05:11] <Aragorn_Guardian> !live cd
[05:11] <ubotu> Did you get hit by a windmill? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, Aragorn_Guardian
[05:11] <M_A_K> I need them to be able to access the network settings.
[05:11] <dr_Willis> echostorm:  may need to use gksu or some other X alternative to sudo
[05:11] <iceman> edward1 ca you apt get it ?
[05:11] <Fracture> anyone here know how to diagnose problems with gnome-panel ?
[05:12] <edward1> iceman: yes
[05:12] <iceman> edward1 thanks
[05:12] <edward1> iceman: apt-cache search moodin
[05:12] <echostorm> dr_willis: ok, ill start doing research on shell scripts then... thanx
[05:13] <dr_Willis> echostorm:  there are mule clients for linux :P heh.
[05:13] <curley_sue> Extreme_Unction, I left u the instructions at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9634
[05:13] <raggi_> um, there's a build of lighttpd somewhere in 'universe' (what is 'universe') but i can't get to it through apt-cache search or apt-get, can someone advise
[05:13] <_jason> M_A_K: I think easiest way would be to make a new group and add the group to /etc/sudoers.  There is proper syntax that will allow access only to certain commands (you would just use whatever opens network tools).  I don't know the syntax too well though
[05:14] <echostorm> dr_Willis: I know, its kinda just an example for general windows programs lol
[05:14] <M_A_K> _jason : do you know where I can read more about this?
[05:14] <_jason> M_A_K: man sudoers
[05:15] <M_A_K> Ok.
[05:15] <_jason> M_A_K: probably some easier to read tutorials on google, but I don';t know of any
[05:15] <dr_Willis> echostorm:  cedega uses their Point2Play interface for similer goals.
[05:15] <Extreme_Unction> Loading plugins: blackdown-j2re.sh blackdown-j2sdk.sh common.sh j2re.sh j2sdk.sh j2se.sh sun-j2re.sh sun-j2sdk.sh
[05:15] <Extreme_Unction> No matching plugin was found.
[05:16] <M_A_K> _jason : how do I find out what program I need to give access to for network settings?
[05:16] <_jason> M_A_K: by the way, when you edit /etc/sudoers, you want to use the 'visudo' command.  It will make sure you don't mess up the syntax and lock yourself out
[05:17] <M_A_K> Does that mean it uses vi as the editor?
[05:17] <M_A_K> I hate vi
 i didnt know that ill check cedega out :)
[05:17] <_jason> M_A_K: oh come on, vi is awesome.  But no you don't have to use it.  Just do 'EDITOR=nano sudo visudo', I think that will give you nano
[05:18] <uein> how can I control the freq of the CPU??
[05:18] <johndarkhorse> M_A_K: you can also add "export EDITOR=nano " into your ~/.bashrc and always have nano as the editor
[05:18] <chmod775> maxkelley, hi there
[05:18] <chmod775> ?
[05:18] <M_A_K> I know...I just never used it and dont know the syntax
[05:18] <dr_Willis> VI -= learn it . love it!
[05:18] <chmod775> johndarkhorse, I have no luck installing irc cgi
[05:19] <M_A_K> Why is vi so important?
[05:19] <M_A_K> Why not pico or some other one?
[05:19] <chmod775> http://cgiirc.sourceforge.net/
[05:19] <johndarkhorse> M_A_K: vi offers many functions not available in nano or simpler editors
[05:19] <dr_Willis> its basicially the defacto standard on 'system recovery' disks for one, and its amazingly powerfull.
[05:19] <dr_Willis> :P
[05:19] <uein> how can I control the freq of the CPU?
[05:20] <Extreme_Unction> powernowd
[05:20] <M_A_K> Are those functions really necessary?
[05:20] <echostorm> ihad problems with vi, i havent read the tutorial yet. nano I was able to figure out on the fly though so i have actually used it
[05:20] <pirate> glxgears used to work, now suddenly I'm gettinging X Error of failed request:  BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation) & co.
[05:20] <_jason> M_A_K: not necessary, just more efficient.  You can just use 'ed' too instead of nano if you want to get more basic
[05:20] <dr_Willis> take an hr - run the 'vitutor' and learn it. :P
[05:21] <nny> anyone know of a reasonable alternative to firefox?  maybe something a little lighter but still uses the gecko engine?
[05:21] <chmod775> hey folks
[05:21] <pirate> X loads fine, along with the nVidia logo.
[05:21] <dr_Willis> i like fte in many ways.
[05:21] <chmod775> any ideas on cgiirc
[05:21] <jlhenry> dradul, I resolv this with this: ssh remotehost '/usr/sbin/slapcat -l /tmp/openldap.ldiff && gzip -c /tmp/openldap.ldiff && rm /tmp/openldap.ldiff ' > test.tgz
[05:21] <chmod775> I copied it on the cgi-bin folder but could not access it any ideas?
[05:21] <pirate> AMD64 X2, GeForce 6600
[05:21] <echostorm> well, cedega wont be done for 35 minutes so i might as well do it now lol
[05:21] <M_A_K> dr_willis : vitutor
[05:21] <jlhenry> dradul, thanks
[05:21] <_jason> M_A_K: network-admin is the command

[05:31] <fatbrain> What's the name of that cool Partitioning App?
[05:31] <fatbrain> partman or something?
[05:31] <dooglus> gparted ?
[05:31] <edward1> fatbrain: fdisk, cfdisk?
[05:31] <johndarkhorse> fatbrain: i use gparted. you can also use qtparted
[05:31] <jessy_> hello, someone's know what software can i use to send simply a 5go file to another person ?
[05:31] <curley_sue> Extreme_Unction, did u manage?
[05:31] <johndarkhorse> roldan: you should have a private message from ubotu
[05:32] <sesq> hello, how to resize font in fluxbox bars ?
[05:32] <roldan> private message?
[05:32] <colm> jessy_, irc
[05:32] <Extreme_Unction> No, I've gotten Java package but it says "No matching plugin found" when I tried to package up JDK 1.6.0
[05:32] <roldan> an lost
[05:32] <dr_Willis> sesq:  proberly gotta edit the fluxbox theme you are using.
[05:32] <sesq> ok
[05:32] <dooglus> jessy_: what is a 5go file?
[05:33] <fatbrain> johndarkhorse: it was gparted I was thinking about thanks
[05:33] <curley_sue> Extreme_Unction, did u try following the paste ( http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9634 )
[05:33] <jessy_> dooglus, it's a file who had a size of 5 Go
[05:34] <Extreme_Unction> Yes, the problem arises from fakeroot make-jpkg jre-1_5_0_06-linux-i586.bin
[05:35] <hikenboot> anyone know what incorrect module format means when trying to load a module
[05:35] <Halai> hi can anyone help me out? i have mounted an ntfs partition on my ubuntu system, but it's read only. how would i change the attributes for it to be read/write.
[05:35] <fatbrain> Is there lika a partitioning application that enables you to resize a partition without loosing the data on it?
[05:35] <curley_sue> Extreme_Unction, is there a reason u r trying JDK and not JRE?
[05:35] <johndarkhorse> Halai: if you write to it, you may destroy it.
[05:35] <Profichilla> ubotu, tell Halai about ntfs
[05:35] <johndarkhorse> fatbrain: use a liveCD and gparted
[05:36] <Extreme_Unction> because I need to compile Java applications aswell
[05:36] <fatbrain> johndarkhorse: ok, thanks
[05:36] <Extreme_Unction> JRE desn't work either, anyways.
[05:36] <Halai> johndarkhorse: all i wish to do is delete some files off my windows drive. it's data only. and i'm backing up some data from my ubuntu box to ntfs, but can't write to the drive.
[05:36] <roldan> still lost in cyberspace here
[05:36] <johndarkhorse> Halai: well, you've been sent info, and warned. ultimately it's your box.
[05:37] <curley_sue> Extreme_Unction, sorry - never tried that...
[05:37] <dooglus> jessy_: I never heard of a Go as a size.  Is it anything like Gb (gigabit), GB (gigabyte), GiB (gibibyte) or Gib (gibibit)?
[05:37] <johndarkhorse> roldan: what client do you use for irc?
[05:37] <Halai> johndarkhorse: are you warning me about losing my windows system or ubuntu?
[05:37] <Extreme_Unction> I'll just settle with this 1.5.0 from Seveas'
[05:37] <roldan> x chat2.4.4
[05:37] <roldan> i think
[05:38] <johndarkhorse> Halai: your windows partition can be destroyed by writing to it
[05:38] <Kr4t05> !doom
[05:38] <ubotu> [doom]  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Doom3
[05:38] <johndarkhorse> roldan: look for new tabs with 'ubotu' on them
[05:38] <jessy_> dooglus, Go is french, sorry 1 octet = 1 byte, so Go = GB
[05:38] <Halai> johndarkhorse: if windows is your concern, i don't have one, i just have some old ntfs drives lying around that im trying to keep data on. i actually want to delete some data on those and put some new stuff on there, and if need be i'll reformat the drive.
[05:38] <dooglus> jessy_: I see.
[05:39] <colm> jessy_, are you using XChat?  is the recipient also using XChat?  you can use irc to send a file - right click on the person's name > send file
[05:39] <johndarkhorse> Halai: if you're not worried about data integrity, have at it. the worst that will happen is you'll lose all data
[05:39] <emrah> hello
[05:39] <roldan> you mean talk to the ubuto helper?
[05:40] <jessy_> the sender is under Mac OSX
[05:40] <Halai> johndarkhorse: yeah to be honest, not really that concerned. in the documentation that i got quoted at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountPartitions, i don't really see any way to change attributes to write.
[05:40] <johndarkhorse> roldan: do you see any new tabs with "ubotu" on them?
[05:40] <colm> that's fine, MacOSX has IRC clients too
[05:40] <emrah> hatt irgend jemand Zeit und den Nerv,mir zu erklren,wie ich die neue amule version mit KAD auf mein ubunut system installieren?(bin anfnger)

[05:43] <sesq> dr_Willis, hurrey, it works, thnxs !
[05:44] <Extreme_Unction> I have a question.. probably best responded to in a link. Well, new to Linux in general.. I'm getting alot of applications in which I've compiled, or it's just come with the executable. I usually stick them in my home folder, make shortcuts. This is just a bit messy. Where should I stick the components/etc of these applications? Kind of like C:\Program Files\ for Windows? :\
[05:44] <Extreme_Unction> The file hiearchy of Linux or whatnot
[05:44] <Zoroaster> IM at ive365.com, how can I play music
[05:44] <Zoroaster> rythmbox appears to suck
[05:44] <Zoroaster> appears to, because It might be me
[05:44] <dooglus> Extreme_Unction: generally most of the packages you need are in synaptic
[05:44] <_jason> ubotu: tell Extreme_Unction about dirs
[05:44] <dooglus> Extreme_Unction: so you shouldn't be compiling lots of stuff for yourself.
[05:45] <_jason> Extreme_Unction: yeah, I agree with dooglus too
[05:45] <Extreme_Unction> Well, I can't find any for:
[05:45] <Extreme_Unction> Well, so far..
[05:45] <dr_Willis> http://www.tldp.org/LDP/intro-linux/html/sect_03_01.html
[05:45] <Extreme_Unction> Cube, and Eclipse
[05:45] <dr_Willis> over view of the file system layout
[05:45] <dooglus> Extreme_Unction: eclipse is in synaptic for sure
[05:45] <Extreme_Unction> Oh?
[05:45] <Extreme_Unction> Which repository?
[05:46] <dooglus> !info eclipse-platform
[05:46] <ubotu> eclipse-platform: (Eclipse platform without plug-ins to develop any language), section universe/devel, is optional. Version: 3.1.1-1ubuntu3 (breezy), Packaged size: 237 kB, Installed size: 1456 kB
[05:46] <dooglus> universe.
[05:46] <Extreme_Unction> Thanks.
[05:47] <cmpalmer> anybody have an answer for st_lim's remastering question?
[05:47] <dooglus> Extreme_Unction: I don't know what 'cube' is.  can't find it in the repos
[05:47] <cmpalmer> I'd like to know that too
[05:48] <Halai> johndarkhorse: there is a line in fstab i found which is my ntfs partition, i assume the ro means read only, what would i substitute it with?

[05:51] <Nitro88> how to resolve?
[05:51] <iBalo> Halai: be warned again, you might shredder the ntfs-partition by writing on it
[05:51] <Nitro88> i can't work
[05:51] <Rob_Dude> If I highlight a bunch of files and go to 'open' it opens all of them, in their own copy of VLC
[05:51] <echostorm> ok... i cant install cedega because it requires xlibs, which cant be installed because its been replaced... um help?
[05:51] <Rob_Dude> hmm, let me try that maybe
[05:52] <dr_Willis> VLC has more options/features then you can imagine. :P  when in doubt check its homepage/docs
[05:52] <Nitro88> can any help me?
[05:52] <tatters> anyone know a good web based management tool like webmin that is officially supported?
[05:52] <dr_Willis> echostorm:  it installed and worked anyway wheni forced it.
[05:52] <dr_Willis> echostorm:  i think theres some outdated package/changes  to 'xlibs'
[05:53] <Halai> iBalo: thanks for your concern.
[05:53] <dr_Willis> echostorm:  however every time i did an apt-get upgrade the system wanted to remove cedega as being 'broken' :(
[05:53] <Halai> thanks for all your help guys
[05:53] <echostorm> dr_Willis same here
[05:53] <digital-ninja> is it possible to set up samba on my network so that the other windows computers don't need a usr name and password to access shares?
[05:53] <zarephath_> Ok I just installed Ubuntu on my PC...tried to start xserver and said it is not properly configured...tried running xorgconfig...but that results in nothingness?
[05:54] <zarephath_> digital-ninja: Yes
[05:54] <digital-ninja> do you know where i could find that info likein the wiki or smthing?
[05:54] <dr_Willis> digital-ninja:  a read of 'using samba'  book avial online. will give ya all kinds of info
[05:54] <dr_Willis> theres dozens of samba guides/tutorials out.. its a very 'big' topic. :P
[05:54] <digital-ninja> thank you i will take a look at that
[05:55] <st_lim> no one's got an answer??
[05:55] <dr_Willis> samba can do some neat tricks
[05:55] <amyn> hi _jason
[05:55] <dr_Willis> digital-ninja:  also you could just use 'ssh' and 'winscp' on the windows box's - it seems to be a little easier to setup. :P well trivial even..
[05:55] <amyn> hi everyone
[05:55] <Mabus06> If I swap hard drives between two different computers, but the wifi card is the same, should it work?
[05:55] <zarephath_> dr_Willis: So I am wondering why Ubuntu didn't setup Xserver correctly after boot? What command to configure xorg?
[05:55] <Mabus06> The internet that is.
[05:56] <dr_Willis> zarephath_:  not sure. dpkg-reconfigure xserver or simthing similer.
[05:56] <fatbrain> johndarkhorse: What was the name of the partitioning software again? I forgot as soon as I booted the live-cd, heh :)
[05:56] <zarephath_> dr_Willis: thanks

[05:57] <iceman> dr_Willis where can i install add new icons themes ?
[05:57] <cmpalmer> st_lim: does that help?
[05:57] <Nitro88> hi all i've got a big problem when i put down the programs in the selection bar when i reopen it
[05:57] <Nitro88> they're blocked
[05:57] <dr_Willis> tatters:  but thers so many different options to samba - its staggering. :P

[05:57] <Nitro88> i can't work
[05:57] <tatters> yup

[06:08] <mikebot> does anyone know how i can remove some of the serach bars from firefox? i deleted the files from the folder, but theys till appear
[06:08] <mikebot> i even got that removal tool extension
[06:08] <dr_Willis> amyn:  it dont take effect till a reboot.. use 'hostname' command to change them now.
[06:08] <saniX> arrinmurr, right click on panle then add panle
[06:08] <fangorious> Zoroaster: change the default application for playlists in nautilus
[06:09] <saniX> arrinmurr, you will fine Keyboard Indicator
[06:09] <amyn> amin@amin:~$ hostname
[06:09] <fangorious> Zoroaster: right-click on a playlist and select properties, go to the Open With tab, and set your preferred default
[06:09] <amyn> amin
[06:09] <amyn> hostname is just showing the hostname
[06:09] <fangorious> Zoroaster: if your preferred default isn't listed, click the Add button
[06:09] <amyn> how do i use the hostname command to change it
[06:09] <Dr_Willis> amyn,  'man hostname' learn to use the command
[06:09] <fangorious> amyn: hostname <newhostname>
[06:09] <mikebot> anyone know about removing items form the search menu in firefox?
[06:10] <Dr_Willis> Linux tip #1 - learn how to learn. :P
[06:10] <Coll3g3kid> If i want to clear the value of something in the nvram such as wan_ipaddr should i type in "nvram unset wan_ipaddr" or "nvram set wan_ipaddr" whithout using any equal sign
[06:10] <nich2chien> hi
[06:10] <arrinmurr> saniX: ok, i'll try that thanks
[06:10] <fangorious> mikebot: look in /usr/lib/firefox/searchplugins
[06:10] <zarephath> Dr_Willis: Isn't that a oxymoron? heh
[06:11] <fangorious> mikebot: also ~/.mozilla/firefox/*.default/searchplugins for ones you've installed yourself
[06:11] <mikebot> fangorious, i deleted them from there
[06:11] <Dr_Willis> zarephath,  like being a 'windows expert' :P
[06:11] <amyn> how to logout su from terminal and login with my normal user ?
[06:11] <Dr_Willis> amyn,  'exit' logs out  of a su session
[06:11] <mikebot> fangorious, i deleted them from: home/opt/firefox/searchplugins
[06:11] <johndarkhorse> amyn: exit
[06:11] <mikebot> fangorious, i don't know where those other folders are
[06:11] <johndarkhorse> amyn: and using 'su' is not advised
[06:11] <Dr_Willis> zarephath,  heh - getting where there needs tobe a #ubuntu_linux_101 channel.
[06:12] <fangorious> mikebot: ~ means your home directory
[06:12] <amyn> guys my terminal is not opening now
[06:12] <bit_seqz> hey fellas, ive taken my laptop appart to fix some problems, Im going to clean up all the plastic (casing), and I want to repaint all the plastic peices... or maybe vinyl sticker or something would be better? whats a good treatment ?
[06:12] <amyn> what happened ? i just changed the hostname and exited
[06:12] <fangorious> amyn: you probably need to restart X (ctrl-alt-backspace)
[06:13] <mikebot> fangorious, okay, so in my home i don't have mozilla, it is opt
[06:13] <mikebot> fangorious, and then firefox, and i deleted themf rom there
[06:13] <mikebot> fangorious, where is that other folder you mentioned
[06:13] <zarephath> Dr_Willis: Well I ain't no expert by a long shot..experience is the best teacher..
[06:13] <fangorious> mikebot: in your home directory there will be a .mozilla folder with your firefox profile. the '.' at the start is important
[06:13] <zarephath> I always liked the well lets see if it works how I tried it first then ask the question mode..
[06:13] <Dr_Willis> zarephath,  'i want to know it all... right now!' :P
[06:13] <nich2chien> does anybody know a usb wifi adaptor?
[06:14] <zarephath> Heh
[06:14] <mikebot> fangorious, in my home, there is only
[06:14] <Dr_Willis> zarephath,  'i want to know it all... right now! and dont use any big words!' :P
[06:14] <mikebot> fangorious, Desktop, linuxdcpp, opt, websites
[06:14] <Coll3g3kid> If i want to clear the value of something in the nvram such as wan_ipaddr should i type in "nvram unset wan_ipaddr" or "nvram set wan_ipaddr" whithout using any equal sign
[06:14] <fangorious> mikebot: anything starting with a '.' is hidden. do ls -A to see it, or just trust me and 'cd ~/.mozilla'
[06:15] <mikebot> fangorious, okay
[06:16] <mikebot> fangorious, ah, okay
[06:16] <fangorious> :)
[06:16] <mikebot> fangorious, but in .mozilla..
[06:16] <echostorm> how rediculous. the pdf viewer that comes with ubuntu doesnt allow for reflow - thats ok, i wasnt expecting it to, but adobe themselves dont even make a version of acrobat for linux, just their lusy reader!
[06:16] <johndarkhorse> echostorm: try evince
[06:16] <Ng> johndarkhorse: that's the default pdf viewer in ubuntu which he presumably already used
[06:17] <bit_seqz> echostorm, ridiculous.
[06:17] <Ng> echostorm: the windows version may well work in wine
[06:17] <fangorious> mikebot: there should be a firefox folder, and in that, a randomly names kj324ij34kl.default folder
[06:17] <Dr_Willis> I never have figured out why firefox uses names like  kj324ij34kl.default
[06:17] <fangorious> mikebot: the part before ".default" is random so just do an ls to see what it is
[06:17] <Dr_Willis> :)
[06:17] <johndarkhorse> Ng: really? i had to install evince to be able to use it.
[06:17] <mikebot> fangorious, okay, so in. ~/home/.mozilla/fireox/ff1.5/lejxsznc.default/searchplugins
[06:17] <mikebot> fangorious, are only the ones i've installed
[06:18] <fangorious> mikebot: you can also look in /usr/lib/firefox/searchplugins, /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/searchplugins, /usr/lib/mozilla/searchplugins
[06:18] <mikebot> fangorious, where is usr?
[06:19] <fangorious> mikebot: in /
[06:19] <echostorm> im giving evince a look now. just thought i would share - what reflow is by the way is a function that automatically restrucures the layout of the paragraphs to fit on the screen, regarless of the zoom. (think word wrap). for anyone who actually cares and doesnt know
[06:19] <amyn> when i was logging in. An error appeared sayin 'cannot look up your hostname'
[06:19] <amyn> this is so complicated
[06:19] <Nitro88> hi all i've got a big problem when i put down the programs in the selection bar when i reopen it
[06:19] <Nitro88>  they're blocked
[06:19] <V4Vendetta> amyn~ did you put spaces in your hostname ?
[06:19] <amyn> what was the command to edit hostname
[06:20] <fangorious> mikebot: anything that starts with a '/' is at the root of your filesystem, anything that doesn't start with '/' is relative to your current directory
[06:20] <amyn> ?
[06:20] <V4Vendetta> amyn~ sudo gedit /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts
[06:20] <V4Vendetta> don't use spaces
[06:20] <V4Vendetta> in your hostname..
[06:20] <mikebot> fangorious, in home there is no usr folder
[06:20] <mikebot> fangorious, and i am showing hidden folders
[06:20] <cmpalmer> mikebot: it's not in your home directory
[06:20] <amyn> i am not using any space
[06:21] <fangorious> mikebot: it's not in your home folder, it's in /. type in 'cd /' and then do an ls
[06:21] <cmpalmer> mikebot: try this: cd /
[06:21] <Gallopin> ah oui
[06:21] <Howitzer> Few questions
[06:21] <gnomefreak> ok card is set up in 2d i think :(
[06:21] <mikebot> fangorious, ah, i'm not trying in terminal, i was navigating in folders
[06:21] <grndlvl_> BCM4306 802.11b/g having trouble installing, installed via ndiswrapper seems to have installed correctly, but i am having trouble activating
[06:21] <amyn> sudo: unable to lookup home via gethostbyname()
[06:22] <fangorious> mikebot: ah, if you're in nautilus with the side panel, look under filesystem
[06:22] <gnomefreak> command for checking rendering is fglrx | findfps   right?
[06:22] <mikebot> fangorious, ah okay, here we go
[06:23] <FraZena> Signori, se ve ne fregasse qualcosa il problema di prima della scheda di rete s' risolto aggiornando il BIOS della piastra madre...
[06:23] <Howitzer> All involved with gnome: 1) Is there a possibility i can have a rightclick-fluxboxlike menu on the desktop? 2) How can i make my own gnome themes(=>Metacity themes?) 3) Will Gnome 2.14 be available in Dapper?
[06:23] <fangorious> i'm getting an Input/output error when I run md5sum on /dev/cdrom, but it mounts just fine and I can navigate its filesystem
[06:24] <mikebot> fangorious, how come i cannot delete the files from this folder?

[06:31] <l00p> I have problems trying to install Ubuntu. I'm trying to install it on free space on a SATA drive. On the drive I have two existing NTFS partitions and few gigs of free space (I had Mandrake 10 installed on it before). When I try to install Ubuntu and it comes to partitioning I can't see any partitions on my hard disk. It looks as if it is a brand new drive. I have the option to partition it on my own but that way I would loose all data. When I try to
[06:31] <mikebot> fangorious, do i need to download a codec or soemtihng for divx to work, or is it pre-installed?
[06:31] <mikebot> fangorious, that was to anyone, sorry
[06:31] <gnomefreak> direct rendering is yes does that mean i have 3d?
[06:31] <johndarkhorse> ubotu: tell mikebot about multimedia
[06:32] <frank23> gnomefreak: yeah it means 3d should work
[06:32] <gnomefreak> :) yay
[06:32] <fangorious> mikebot: are you running breezy or dapper?
[06:32] <mikebot> johndarkhorse, thanks
[06:32] <gnomefreak> is there easy way to test?
[06:32] <sesq> What program p2p do you use to download mp3 ?
[06:32] <mikebot> fangorious, breezy
[06:32] <sesq> ( on linux )
[06:32] <johndarkhorse> sesq: we don't advocate that stuff in here
[06:32] <amyn> ok lissen up guys. I m v.new to linux or ubuntu. i dont know a thing about shell/bash. what should i do first ? i need to learn the file system of linux and cli commands and their functions. just personally recommend me a webbsite from which i can easily learn both of them.
[06:33] <johndarkhorse> amyn: did you get a message from ubotu?
[06:33] <fangorious> mikebot: 'sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.8-plugins gstreamer0.8-plugins-multiverse' should cover you for a large variety of codecs
[06:33] <sesq> johndarkhorse, but im talking about legal mp3 ( delete after 24h )
[06:33] <MadMan1234> i get a file too big error when i try and copy a dvd ISO (4.4gigs) from one drive to another

[06:33] <amyn> johndarkhorse, yes. But again there are many sites .. which one is the best ?
[06:33] <insta`> Has anyone used sshfs before?
[06:33] <mikebot> fangorious, okay, thanks
[06:33] <frank23> sesq: you can ask what program can go on a specific p2p network.
[06:34] <mjr> insta`, yes, it's nice
[06:34] <GreyBear> LEAVE
[06:34] <mjr> insta`, can't reconnect always, it seems, but otherwise works
[06:34] <kenroy_> i am looking to buy a laptop that i can put linux on and do some work. i would like to kow iftheintel duo core laptops (preferrably the 1.8GHZ) any good
[06:34] <kenroy_> i am also going to use windows on it too
[06:34] <insta`> mjr: did you have any permission problems with the local fusemount binary?  I'm using ubuntu breezy packages, and I'm getting permission denied.
[06:34] <dooglus> amyn: try this: http://www.tldp.org/LDP/gs/node5.html
[06:35] <sesq> frank23, something like Bearshare from windows ( gnutella ) i use gtk-gnutella but it is not simillar to bearshare
[06:35] <dooglus> insta`: I use it a lot
[06:35] <quitenormal> sesq don't forget to mention the giFTd.
[06:35] <dooglus> insta`: I got that problem, yes.
[06:35] <frank23> sesq: I don't know gnutella. I know appolon can go on gnutella
[06:35] <insta`> dooglus: how did you fix it?
[06:36] <sesq> frank23, ok, but what do u use to DL mp3s ?
[06:36] <dooglus> insta`: I don't remember.  what's the error message exactly?
[06:36] <frank23> sesq: wrong question
[06:36] <insta`> fuse: failed to exec fusermount: Permission denied
[06:36] <mikebot> how can i make a link to a folder on my desktop?

[06:37] <amyn> sudo: unable to lookup home via gethostbyname() . whats wrong with my hostname now ?
[06:37] <mikebot> dooglus, just open the folder home/dc++/downloads
[06:37] <dooglus> insta`: I remember now.  you need to add yourself to the 'fuse' group and log in again.
[06:37] <MadMan1234> it's actually from one machine to another via samba share
[06:38] <sesq> frank23, thnx anyway
[06:38] <dooglus> mikebot: so you want ~/Desktop/downloads to be a link to ~/dc++/downloads ?
[06:38] <mikebot> dooglus, somehting like that, yeah
[06:38] <dooglus> mikebot: if so, type "ln -s ~/dc++/downloads ~/Desktop/downloads"

[06:39] <Belboz99> Hey all, I'm getting this error, any ideas? Error: Unable to initialize gtk, is DISPLAY set properly?
[06:39] <equador> how chmod NTFS partition, because now i haven't permissions ?
[06:40] <wastrel> !ntfs
[06:40] <ubotu> ntfs is, like, the filesystem used in Windows 2000 and newer; to automatically mount your NTFS partition: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions
[06:40] <gnomefreak> Belboz99: dapper or breezy?
[06:40] <Belboz99> equador, don't chmod an NTFS partitiion
[06:40] <insta`> Simple enough, thanks.
[06:40] <dooglus> mikebot: "man ln" will tell you the details, but it does what you asked for
[06:40] <johndarkhorse> equador please don't chmod partitions
[06:40] <fangorious> equador: mount it with -o umask=0222
[06:40] <equador> i have mount, but i don't have permisions
[06:40] <dooglus> insta`: got it?
[06:40] <Belboz99> gnomefreak, breezy, is dapper out?
[06:40] <equador> how i can get all permisions
[06:40] <mikebot> dooglus, okay, thanks
[06:40] <Howitzer> Hi all
[06:40] <sesq> has XGL already out ???
[06:40] <johndarkhorse> equador: edit your fstab with the info from fangorious
[06:40] <Howitzer> i have a problem
[06:40] <mikebot> dooglus, do you know what this means:W: Couldn't stat source package list http://wine.sourceforge.net binary/ Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/wine.sourceforge.net_apt_binary_Packages) - stat (2 No such file or directory)
[06:40] <mikebot> W: Couldn't stat source package list http://wine.sourceforge.net binary/ Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/wine.sourceforge.net_apt_binary_Packages) - stat (2 No such file or directory)
[06:41] <dooglus> insta`: "sudo adduser inst fuse" will do it.  then log out and in again.
[06:41] <gnomefreak> equador: no there is a gtk issue in dapper thats why i asked
[06:41] <Howitzer> In GDM and Fluxbox, the font is WAY too small
[06:41] <fangorious> equador: the ntfs driver is readonly
[06:41] <Howitzer> In Gnome however, it's okay
[06:41] <dooglus> gnomefreak: the gtk issue in dapper was fixed about 12 hours agog
[06:41] <V4Vendetta> how do i find out if i have an ata, ide or whatever hard-drive ?
[06:41] <gnomefreak> dooglus: i didnt know its still in topic
[06:41] <fangorious> exit
[06:41] <gnomefreak> i havent run into that issue
[06:41] <johndarkhorse> V4Vendetta: in a console type 'sudo lshw'
[06:41] <sesq> Howitzer, cange them in theme ( gedit theme )
[06:41] <fangorious> wrong window
[06:41] <equador> when i open ntfs partition i get message: You do not have the permissions necessary to view the contents of "hda1".
[06:41] <mikebot> sorry
[06:41] <Howitzer> but in fluxbox, i have to set the font to a size of about 24 to make them readable
[06:41] <dooglus> gnomefreak: oh, i see
[06:42] <insta`> dooglus: Yeah, I got that.  It's currently trying to mount in VT#1.  Is a long, long pause most likely a fault of my host, rather than local configuration?
[06:42] <johndarkhorse> equador: you've been given info to fix your problem
[06:42] <gnomefreak> equador: read the site ubotu is going to send you
[06:42] <insta`> I'm using SSH keys
[06:42] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell equador about ntfs
[06:42] <gnomefreak> there read that
[06:42] <V4Vendetta> johndarkhorse~ scsi ?
[06:42] <dooglus> insta`: it's quick for me.  can you ssh to the host normally without a delay?
[06:42] <Belboz99> okay, anyway, I had an error in a scanning application called Vuescan, and now all I get is: Error: Unable to initialize gtk, is DISPLAY set properly?
[06:42] <Belboz99>  whenever I try to run it
[06:42] <equador> thx
[06:42] <Howitzer> sesq, i mean when you type in your username and password, those letters are way too small, the theme itself is okay
[06:43] <sesq> Howitzer, ok
[06:43] <sesq> has XGL already out ???
[06:43] <insta`> dooglus: usually
[06:43] <gnomefreak> sesq: it is in dapper and both dapper and xgl may not work
[06:43] <insta`> Does it do any sort of caching on the remote host?
[06:43] <lkcore> sesq, dapper
[06:43] <mikebot> ugh, why is playing videso so laggy...is there a better player for avis?
[06:44] <insta`> mikebot: what are you using?
[06:44] <mikebot> insta`, totem
[06:44] <Extreme_Unction> I like Amarok
[06:44] <V4Vendetta> can somone tell me what kind of HD this is? WDC WD1600JD-22H
[06:44] <V4Vendetta> is it ATA SATA or what ?
[06:44] <lkcore> mikebot, mplayer.
[06:44] <johndarkhorse> mikebot: please don't paste in here
[06:44] <mikebot> johndarkhorse, okay, sorry
[06:44] <mikebot> lkcore, thanks
[06:45] <gnomefreak> V4Vendetta: without looking at it how are we gonna know  (try google) google knows all
[06:45] <insta`> mikebot: definitely use mplayer, with the xv driver if possible (seems to be the best performance)
[06:45] <dooglus> insta`: I've not looked into it much.  I don't know about caching.  It just seems to work (once you've got it set up).  I've raised a bug in malone about the problems, but as usual nothing happened
[06:45] <mikebot> insta`, just search 'xv' for that driver?
[06:45] <Extreme_Unction> Does anyone know if Gaim uses ALSA?
[06:45] <mikebot> insta`, where can i get mplayer? i can't find it in synaptic
[06:45] <Extreme_Unction> I can't get software mixing to work with amorak and gaim even if I start it with aoss
[06:46] <lkcore> mikebot, and install win32codecs
[06:46] <insta`> mikebot: you have to enable the universe and multiverse repositories.
[06:46] <lkcore> mikebot, google :) or ubuntu guide
[06:46] <insta`> How many mhz is your processor, and how much RAM does the system have?
[06:46] <V4Vendetta> gnomefreak~ Direct-Access ANSI SCSI ?
[06:46] <Laibsch> !openoffice
[06:46] <ubotu> Laibsch: What? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[06:46] <Sicka> I am having trouble burning DVDs. dvd::rip doesn't seem to work... any suggestions?
[06:46] <johndarkhorse> ubotu: tell mikebot about mplayer
[06:46] <sesq> lkcore, you mean in ubuntu dapper drake ?
[06:46] <johndarkhorse> mikebot: ubotu is sending you info
[06:47] <mikebot> johndarkhorse, thanks
[06:47] <pianoboy3333> Anyone here good at editing xorg.conf?
[06:47] <insta`> You're persistant pianoboy3333
[06:47] <insta`> What do you need?
[06:47] <Sanitarium_23> hi, could someone helo me hot to set up my internet conection with ubuntu, since I'm using ADSL over the eth, shortly... how to set up  conection over the PPPoe ?
[06:47] <V4Vendetta> is SCSI an SATA interface ?
[06:47] <fangorious> !anyone
[06:47] <ubotu> probably 90% of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? <hint>
[06:48] <pianoboy3333> insta`: Is there someway to specify that my monitor is being hooked up with a DVI cable?
[06:48] <Sicka> I am having trouble burning DVDs. dvd::rip doesn't seem to work... any suggestions?
[06:48] <fangorious> pianoboy3333: why would you need to?
[06:48] <lkcore> sesq, ?
[06:48] <Extreme_Unction> What's the name of the win32 codecs for apt-get?
[06:48] <Laibsch> Where do I get the latest version of openoffice.org?  The sources I found still seem to install as openoffice.org2 which coming from a debian background smacks of a prerelease.
[06:48] <insta`> Extreme_Unction: w32codecs
[06:49] <btdown> !win32codec
[06:49] <ubotu> Huh? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, btdown
[06:49] <btdown> !win32codecs
[06:49] <ubotu> somebody said win32codecs was binary only codecs that some call evil., and they're available from http://seveas.ubuntulinux.nl/
[06:49] <pianoboy3333> fangorious: My booting screen is distorted, I use dapper, but I had the exact same problem in breezy. Also, when the booting screen fails and I get the terminal, that too is distorted.
[06:49] <Sanitarium_23> How to setup up conection with UBUNTU over the eth0, I mean PPPoE ? Please !
[06:50] <Sicka> Okay perhaps starting my questions with "does anybody out there..." will be more effective....
[06:50] <sesq> lkcore, nvm, dapper is already out, or only beta test ?
[06:50] <FlannelKing> pianoboy3333: check your monitor settings?
[06:50] <Sicka> Does anybody know how to help me with burning DVDs?
[06:50] <fangorious> pianoboy3333: what graphics chip are you using?
[06:50] <dradul> Sanitarium_23, "sudo pppoeconf" at a terminal should do it.
[06:50] <pianoboy3333> FlannelKing, with the buttons that are on the monitor?
[06:50] <pianoboy3333> fangorious: RADEON X600
[06:50] <gnomefreak> sesq: not even beta yet
[06:50] <FlannelKing> pianoboy3333: yeah.
[06:50] <amyn> how do i make sure that everything is ok in my hostname and there are no errors in the hostname files ?
[06:50] <tdn> When I'm starting up Open Box from GDM selecting "system default session" it does not start my adesklets. My .xsession is located on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9636.
[06:51] <Sanitarium_23> dradul, thank you I will try it !
[06:51] <pianoboy3333> FlannelKing: There is a thing for image settings, but I can't select it, once I get into ubuntu, the DVI works fine
[06:51] <pianoboy3333> But I thought I could configure ubuntu for it somehow...
[06:51] <Sicka> New question: Is there any particular reason why nobody cares to answer my first question?
[06:51] <lkcore> sesq, current stable is still breezy.
[06:52] <FlannelKing> pianoboy3333: shrug, if it striaightens out, then its not a monitor setting, with your original description of "everything is distored" it sounded like your monitor was just set wierd
[06:52] <equador> how unmount partition ?
[06:52] <mikebot> lkcore, insta` dooglus fangorious, thanks for all the help guys, i gotta run
[06:52] <mikebot> cya
[06:52] <btdown> equador umount
[06:52] <PuMpErNiCkLe> Sicka: Don't use 'anyone'.
[06:52] <pianoboy3333> FlannelKing: I've done a couple factory resets.....
[06:52] <PuMpErNiCkLe> Sicka: Just ask about your specific problem.
[06:52] <FlannelKing> Sicka: usually because it's scrolled off the screen by the time we glace back, or whatnot.
[06:52] <raggi> can someone explain why postgresql 8.0 doesn't listen on a local TCP socket?
[06:53] <wastrel> pianoboy3333:  your vga settings are messed up but once your X takes over the display it works?
[06:53] <Sicka> Fair enough gentlement
[06:53] <Extreme_Unction> Does anyone know where I can get a debian package for Cube? (http://cube.sourceforge.net/)
[06:53] <sesq> lkcore, if dapper will be stable, the XGL will be too stable ?
[06:53] <raggi>  am i missing something obvious?
[06:53] <Sicka> So
[06:53] <fangorious> pianoboy3333: in the Device section for your monitor, try adding Option "MonitorLayout" "LVDS"
[06:53] <pianoboy3333> LVDS?
[06:53] <pianoboy3333> ok....
[06:53] <Sicka> I am having problems burning DVDs. dvd::rip does not seem to work. Any suggestions?
[06:53] <fangorious> pianoboy3333: X didn't work for me in dapper with an Ati chip using the 'ati' driver without that option
[06:53] <l00p> I have problems trying to install Ubuntu. I'm trying to install it on free space on a SATA drive. On the drive I have two existing NTFS partitions and few gigs of free space (I had Mandrake 10 installed on it before). When I try to install Ubuntu and it comes to partitioning I can't see any partitions on my hard disk. It looks as if it is a brand new drive. I have the option to partition it on my own but that way I would loose all data. When I try to
[06:54] <pianoboy3333> fangorious: it says option "DPMS" take that out?
[06:54] <Extreme_Unction> NTFS? Who cares.
[06:54] <fangorious> pianoboy3333: no, add a new line
[06:54] <pianoboy3333> ok
[06:54] <pianoboy3333> fangorious: do you use dapper?
[06:55] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell Sicka about dvd
[06:55] <fangorious> pianoboy3333: yeah. and i didn't have trouble with the usplash boot graphic, so this might not be the same issue, but it's worth a try
[06:55] <PuMpErNiCkLe> Sicka: Have you seen this page? http://ubuntuguide.org/#dvdrip
[06:56] <netzmeister> hm since the last dapper update my linux doesn't boot..
[06:56] <netzmeister> grub doesn't find the partitions..
[06:56] <netzmeister> when i edit the grub lines manualy he finds the kernel but not the root filesystem..
[06:56] <Lorvija> anyone using d-link g650 pcmcia wireless internet card on laptop?
[06:56] <gnomefreak> netzmeister: for dapper issues try #ubuntu+1
[06:56] <netzmeister> k
[06:57] <Sicka> PuMpErNiCkLe: No not yet I will check it out thanks
[06:57] <fangorious> gnomefreak: really? i've answered/asked plenty of dapper questions in here
[06:57] <pianoboy3333> fangorious: My opengl is also broke, what gfx card driver should I use? ATI? here's my xorg.conf: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9637
[06:57] <gnomefreak> fangorious: read the topic please
[06:57] <Extreme_Unction> What video card do you have?
[06:57] <fangorious> pianoboy3333: I would try to use either the fglrx binary driver from Ati or the open source radeon driver
[06:58] <PuMpErNiCkLe> Sicka: np :)
[06:58] <twibbler> good evening everyone.
[06:58] <pianoboy3333> fangorious: what's the open source radeon driver?
[06:58] <fangorious> gnomefreak: neat.
[06:58] <sesq> Will be XGL available on stable ubuntu dapper ?
[06:58] <Extreme_Unction> omg
[06:58] <gnomefreak> sesq: hopfully
[06:58] <Extreme_Unction> #ubuntu+1 for dapper discussion?
[06:58] <colm> Extreme_Unction, yes
[06:59] <fangorious> pianoboy3333: it's an open source driver for some radeon cards, and it's called radeon (that's what you put in xorg.conf). i've never used it
[06:59] <gnomefreak> sesq: should be unless something very very bad happens
[06:59] <lkcore> sesq,  it will be although don't thing that will be in main.
[06:59] <skazi> hmm...anyone know a good site for new songs?
[06:59] <mlopes> hi. I've two partitions one with breezy and another with dapper. GRUB is now managed by Dapper but I'd like to change that to Breezy. I've tried dpkg-reconfigure grub but it didn't do nothing
[06:59] <mlopes> any ideas?
[06:59] <gnomefreak> Extreme_Unction: yes thats why that channel was made
[06:59] <colm> skazi, last.fm and pandora.com
[06:59] <clearscreen> can anyone tell me why I get a black screen on my laptop when I start the xserver? I have an Acer 5023 WLMI with a Ati x700 pci-e videochip
[06:59] <lkcore> mlopes, try grub-install
[06:59] <ceteh> hi
[06:59] <mlopes> lkcore, no params?
[06:59] <lkcore> mlopes, man grub-install
[07:00] <fangorious> clearscreen: you using the 'ati' driver or the binary 'fglrx' driver
[07:00] <pdani_> hi

[07:00] <pdani_> i've an usb audiotel edge modex. i would like to connect with it on gprs to internet. can i do it on linux?
[07:00] <sesq> when will be stable ubuntu dapper ?
[07:00] <pianoboy3333> fangorious: lemme look, lemme restart and see if that other monitor thing worked...
[07:00] <twibbler> Does anybody know how to setup mobile phone (Motorola V3*) to act as modem please ?.
[07:00] <clearscreen> fangorious let me boot and check my xorg file
[07:00] <gnomefreak> sesq: april 20th
[07:00] <sesq> gnomefreak, thx
[07:01] <fangorious> clearscreen: if it's the 'ati' driver try switching to the fglrx driver
[07:01] <clearscreen> fangorious I did a little search
[07:01] <clearscreen> on the forums
[07:01] <clearscreen> http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=127596&highlight=acer+black+screen
[07:02] <clearscreen> Then the little howto I wrote above will VERY likely work. (it worked for my Acer 5024WLMi which is very alike)
[07:02] <clearscreen> I have an 5023WLMI and they are the same except for mine has more ram :P
[07:02] <gnomefreak> twibbler: i would suggest checking with motorola on that one or join #ubuntu-offtopic maybe they can help
[07:03] <twibbler> gnomefreak: thank you
[07:03] <jjjjjjj> I've downloaded java from Sun (.bin file) but am having problems installing.  what am i to do with a .bin file?  tia

[07:05] <fangorious> clearscreen: if only all problems here were that simple
[07:05] <clearscreen> true :P
[07:07] <gnomefreak> variable: have you tried installing some of the plug-ins for sound?
[07:08] <azurehuesofblue> Is it ok to ask newbie questions here?
[07:08] <gnomefreak> azurehuesofblue: yes
[07:08] <pianoboy3333> fangorious: that monitor line should read: Option "MonitorLayout" "LVDS"
[07:09] <azurehuesofblue> right on, I installed ubuntu and am using it, during the install it never asked me for a root password or anything, only the user account.  How do I log on as root or su?
[07:09] <cmpalmer> !root
[07:09] <fangorious> pianoboy3333: isn't that what i said?
[07:09] <ubotu> By default, the root password is locked in Ubuntu. Look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo for all information.
[07:09] <Extreme_Unction> sudo passwd
[07:09] <pianoboy3333> fangorious: just checking...
[07:09] <l00p> sudo passwd
[07:09] <azurehuesofblue> !root w/ no pass?

[07:09] <johndarkhorse> azurehuesofblue: read the info the bot just sent you
[07:09] <dooglus> azurehuesofblue: root's password is *locked*, not *empty*
[07:09] <azurehuesofblue> ok
[07:10] <cmpalmer> :)
[07:10] <variable> gnomefreak, what plugins?
[07:10] <Psi-Jack> Hey, does anyone here use a DNS server that uses mysql-based zone lookups?
[07:10] <azurehuesofblue> i'll read the wiki, thanks.
[07:10] <variable> Psi-Jack, yes
[07:10] <variable> Psi-Jack, mydns
[07:10] <variable> it is an awesome program
[07:10] <Psi-Jack> variable: MyDNS, eh? Does mydns have it's own resolver yet?
[07:10] <Stormx2> time to put more RAM in this baby :D
[07:11] <variable> Psi-Jack, what do you mean?
[07:11] <Stormx2> guys what is a quick command line way to check how much ram is currently in here?
[07:11] <rem_> hey, anyone knows how it works when scp breaks in the middle of a transfer ? I wanted to rsync the rest, but cant find the file .. ? is there a temp folder where it goes to .. ?
[07:11] <variable> gnomefreak, i searched for firefox sound, and found nothing
[07:11] <Psi-Jack> variable: Heh. I mean, can it resolve non-local queries, without the use of another resolver to query the DNS rootservers?
[07:11] <Stormx2> variable: Whats wrong with the sound?
[07:11] <rem_> hey, anyone knows how it works when scp breaks in the middle of a transfer ? I wanted to rsync the rest, but cant find the file .. ? is there a temp folder where it goes to .. ?
[07:11] <evilsmevil> hi all
[07:11] <variable> Psi-Jack, no, it is never going to, you can just install dnscache over it, that is what the recommend
[07:11] <Stormx2> g2gputRAMinPC
[07:12] <fangorious> Stormx2: mem or free
[07:12] <variable> Stormx2, i dont have sound in firefox
[07:12] <evilsmevil> Gnome is now running half gnome and half KDE how can i get rid of the kde bit?
[07:12] <Extreme_Unction> Half gnome and half kde?
[07:12] <Extreme_Unction> ..
[07:12] <evilsmevil> yeah i know its weird
[07:12] <Psi-Jack> variable: dnscache, eh? Will mydns query a resolver on it's own?
[07:12] <dooglus> evilsmevil: just stop running any Qt apps
[07:12] <evilsmevil> so ill choose a gnome session and ill get the gnome-pannel

[07:14] <oskude> breezy has printing broke
[07:14] <Psi-Jack> variable: Yeah. heh. That's the problem. :p Having to run so many servers just for DNS. It'd be better to simply run Bind with DLZ, than to go with the whole 4 servers just for 2 authorative/caching servers.
[07:14] <Kr4t05> Ok
[07:14] <Kr4t05> So
[07:14] <one> can anyone tell me what to tell the terminal to get my soundcard to stick next time i log in?

[07:15] <variable> it does?
[07:15] <thenuke> equador: but why you want to know
[07:15] <oskude> and where do i find openoffice printer admin ? (cant even add menus myself, doh)
[07:15] <Psi-Jack> variable: Using SDB or DLZ, yes.
[07:15] <equador> then are all other xchat icons
[07:15] <variable> Psi-Jack, never heard of it
[07:15] <enz0_> Ok, I got gnome-control-center installed on my Kubuntu box but under Preferred Applications, I've only got web browser, email client and X Term options.  How do I tell evo which apps to use for certain file types?

[07:16] <dooglus> nitrosport_5: or, better still: "sudo apt-get install cvs", to install the binary rather than building from source at all
[07:17] <variable> gnomefreak, any file, beit website, flash, avi anything = no sound
[07:17] <Psi-Jack> variable: Not yet. I'm looking to see if there's even a deb package for bind9 and dlz. :)
[07:17] <bina> nitrosport_5 - try apt-get install gcc i think
[07:17] <thenuke> equador: http://www.xchat.org/faq/  there is about icons
[07:17] <nitrosport_5> thanks guys
[07:17] <naddar> hey how can i use su?
[07:17] <evilsmevil> when i run ps -e i have some processes called kthread and khelper, also khub are these kde processes?
[07:17] <mwe> can you install ubuntu from a debian netinstall by changing sources.list?
[07:17] <cmpalmer> naddar: use sudo instead
[07:17] <naddar> if i like to go into my firewall its acces denyed even with sudo
[07:17] <dooglus> naddar: it's "su username", followed by the password
[07:17] <bina> nitrosport_5: hehe sorry, I didnt realise there had already been so many replies :)
[07:17] <gnomefreak> mwe: not recommended at all
[07:18] <AstralJava> oskude: I probably came in in a middle of a conversation, but what seems to be the problem?
[07:18] <dooglus> gnomefreak: why not?
[07:18] <wastrel> we hates it
[07:18] <dooglus> gnomefreak: I always install ubuntu from a debian bootstrap
[07:18] <gnomefreak> dooglus: its not recommended mixing packages
[07:18] <oskude> AstralJava, i cant print with openoffice
[07:18] <Psi-Jack> variable: Curious. Does your bind server query mydns for zones before recursing externally?
[07:18] <dooglus> gnomefreak: I see
[07:18] <nitrosport_5> can someone tell me why my teminal wont accept the su
[07:18] <variable> Psi-Jack, no
[07:18] <gnomefreak> they have a net install for ubuntu
[07:18] <oskude> AstralJava, on hoary my printer was automaticly found and installed
[07:18] <AstralJava> oskude: Ahh.... that. I have trouble printing with OO.o2 too.
[07:18] <PuMpErNiCkLe> ubotu tell nitrosport_5 about sudo
[07:18] <oskude> AstralJava, ok :)
[07:19] <mwe> gnomefreak: my laptop doesn't have a floppy or cd drive but it can do a netboot :|
[07:19] <dooglus> nitrosport_5: are you trying to su as root?  if so it won't work because you don't have a root password.  you can set a root password, or use "sudo" instead.
[07:19] <Psi-Jack> variable: So, you basically have 4 nameservers, 2 of which are authorative to your own zones, and they don't have /any/ communication with each other?
[07:19] <variable> gnomefreak, i is this a firefox problem, ubuntu problem, or elsewhere?
[07:19] <AstralJava> oskude: Can CUPS still find the printer?
[07:19] <gnomefreak> mwe: ubuntu has a netboot iso
[07:19] <oskude> anyone know how the openoffice printer admin is called ?
[07:19] <nitrosport_5> where do i set a root password?
[07:19] <oskude> on the gnome printer dings its installd and test page works
[07:19] <gnomefreak> variable: not sure is mplayer your default player for ff
[07:19] <variable> Psi-Jack, lol, ya, well i only have 2 right now, i know im not "safe" but ill get 2 more soon enough
[07:19] <dooglus> nitrosport_5: why not just use "sudo" instead?
[07:19] <variable> gnomefreak, well outside of firefox, mplayer works fine
[07:19] <nitrosport_5> cause i am a noob to sudo and i understand su to some extent
[07:20] <Psi-Jack> variable: That's bad. /VERY/ bad.
[07:20] <Extreme_Unction> The setup program seems to have failed on x86/glibc-2.1
[07:20] <gnomefreak> variable: ok is your default player for ff mplayer?
[07:20] <mwe> gnomefreak: it does?
[07:20] <variable> Psi-Jack, which part, the 2 dns or the non-communicado?
[07:20] <dooglus> nitrosport_5: if you're a noob then don't set the root password, it's dangerous.
[07:20] <gnomefreak> mwe: yes ofcourse it does :)
[07:20] <variable> gnomefreak, how would i check?
[07:20] <nitrosport_5> ok
[07:20] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell mwe about install
[07:20] <oskude> im VERY sad that breezy didnt find my printer, as hoary did. ...
[07:20] <Extreme_Unction> !glibc
[07:20] <ubotu> Extreme_Unction: Did you get hit by a windmill? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[07:20] <gnomefreak> variable: in ff settings somewhere
[07:20] <dooglus> nitrosport_5: just "sudo gedit" or "sudo vi file" or "sudo <whatever you want to do as root>"
[07:21] <Psi-Jack> variable: The non-communicado. Making your libc resolver try to figure out DNS host to use for what lookup is the bad part.
[07:21] <_mindspin> ! build-essentials
[07:21] <ubotu> parse error: Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, _mindspin
[07:21] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell _mindspin about build-essential
[07:21] <nitrosport_5> what are all the things i can do as root
[07:21] <_mindspin> hehe
[07:21] <gnomefreak> nitrosport_5: what are you looking to do?
[07:21] <wastrel> it's called build-essential
[07:22] <bina> nitrosport_5: root can do anything i believe
[07:22] <variable> Psi-Jack, why, the bind just queries something and then it find the mydns through that, wastefull but not terrible
[07:22] <oskude> fyi: openoffice printer admin is called "oopadmin2"
[07:22] <_mindspin> ! build-essential
[07:22] <nitrosport_5> i am trying to run glxgears to see if my vid card has the 3d driver
[07:22] <ubotu> [build-essential]  a meta package for software building see !gcc for more info
[07:22] <kuja> Anyone know of an SQLite UI like sqlitecc, except one that actually builds with ease? :P
[07:22] <AstralJava> oskude: If test page printing works, then CUPS can find the printer, and thus the problem is at OO.o2's end. Does it show the correct printer if you choose File | Printer settings... menu?
[07:22] <oskude> lol, now the printer is there..
[07:22] <Extreme_Unction> Can anyone help me? Upon trying to install Unreal Tournament 2004 I get this error:
[07:22] <Extreme_Unction> The setup program seems to have failed on x86/glibc-2.1
[07:22] <Extreme_Unction> Disk reading problem, or I don't have glibc-2.1?
[07:22] <wastrel> Extreme_Unction:  do you know how to check if you have glibc-2.1?
[07:22] <oskude> AstralJava, ok, oopadmin2 test page works...
[07:23] <Extreme_Unction> No
[07:23] <Belboz99> I need to allow my normal user access to a USB scanner, any ideas?
[07:23] <Extreme_Unction> How?
[07:23] <gnomefreak> locate
[07:23] <gnomefreak> or apt-cache policy
[07:23] <AstralJava> oskude: What about one of your documents?
[07:23] <azurehuesofblue> what is the dos equivelant of "dir /w" in bash?
[07:23] <variable> gnomefreak, i dont see a setting, but id assume it is since mplayer pops up for any media files that arent flash
[07:23] <wastrel> Extreme_Unction:  locate glibc
[07:23] <oskude> AstralJava, sec, testing... (still printing test page)
[07:23] <azurehuesofblue> or um bash equevelent.
[07:23] <PuMpErNiCkLe> azurehuesofblue: What does it do, in dos?
[07:23] <kuja> /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lwx_gtk2u_stc-2.4
[07:23] <kuja>  # What's it saying it can't find?
[07:23] <Extreme_Unction> It found two.
[07:24] <Extreme_Unction> glibc2.4 and glibc21.m4
[07:24] <Extreme_Unction> I mean, glibc2.m4
[07:24] <azurehuesofblue> makes all the files visable in a dir, you know, instead of it only letting you see the end of the alphabet.
[07:24] <Belboz99> azurehusofblue, ls does most dir-like commands
[07:24] <gnomefreak> Extreme_Unction: run apt-cache policy glib see if its installed
[07:24] <PuMpErNiCkLe> azurehuesofblue: ls -a is probably what you're looking for
[07:24] <Belboz99> ls -l lists long, ls -a lists all (including "hidden")
[07:24] <Extreme_Unction> W: Unable to locate package glib
[07:25] <wastrel> gnomefreak:  that won't work unless glib is a package
[07:25] <oskude> AstralJava, yep. ooo2 printing works now....
[07:25] <azurehuesofblue> ok thanks, should work!
[07:25] <holycow> what is the name of the package that does the little notify of updates in the panel thingy?
[07:25] <gnomefreak> variable: im not sure it seems you have everything you would need but really depends on the file itsself there are seprate libs for mp3s and alot of win files
[07:25] <AstralJava> oskude: So then, it only needed for you to complain a little bit. :)
[07:25] <gnomefreak> wastrel: glib is a package no?
[07:25] <variable> gnomefreak, but all the same files work if i dl them and play them like that
[07:25] <gnomefreak> and you should put the version your looking for
[07:25] <variable> gnomefreak, so doesnt it have to be in firefox
[07:25] <oskude> AstralJava, and i had to install it myself (bad breezy) :)
[07:26] <wastrel> gnomefreak:  it would appear not.   you have to have the full correct package name for policy
[07:26] <evilsmevil> when i start gnome i get a kde interface. the gnome panels are still there but the scroll bars and dialogs are all kde style, anyone know how to fix it?
[07:26] <AstralJava> oskude: Right. :)
[07:26] <oskude> i thought updates a supposed to mae things better ;)
[07:26] <variable> gnomefreak, me? its 1.0.7 firefox
[07:26] <gnomefreak> wastrel: i was gonna use .... after it but wouldnt know if he knew what to do
[07:27] <Extreme_Unction> W: Unable to locate package glibc-2.1 .. All the same anyway
[07:27] <AstralJava> oskude: Well, generally speaking.... :)
[07:27] <wastrel> as far as i can tell there's only libglib2.0-0  libglib1.2   in breezy
[07:27] <gnomefreak> variable: no i dont know the answer to your issue it seems you have everything you need for basic files and if the file works under download nad not in ff i would try #firefox
[07:28] <variable> ok thanks
[07:28] <radar1976> I need some help with vsftpd
[07:28] <Extreme_Unction> Do you know anywhere where I can get glibc2.1?
[07:28] <succubus__> what's a good app for burning cd's? Serpentine says the files i want to burn aren't supported but they are all MP3
[07:29] <radar1976> I still can not get any user accounts to login other then the admin account that I created at the time of install
[07:29] <gnomefreak> Extreme_Unction: did you look in synaptic?

[07:34] <gl0be> How do I install the windows video card drivers for my laptop?
[07:34] <gnomefreak> frank23: sudo apt-get remove --purge ubuntu-desktop will get rid of the ubuntu-desktop and its conf files but for the packages you will need to uninstall them each
[07:34] <gnomefreak> gl0be: through windows?
[07:34] <frank23> gnomefreak: aptitude is supposed to be able to get rid of dependancies too I think
[07:34] <gnomefreak> frank23: sudo aptitude remove
[07:35] <gl0be> gnomefreak: ooh...no.  Into ubuntu.  I seem to remember that there is a piece of software that will act as a wrapper
[07:35] <root404> My sound isn't working! It used to work before...
[07:35] <frank23> gnomefreak: well that just removes one package
[07:35] <gnomefreak> i dont htink aptitude will get rid of depends that it didnt install and ther eis no purge command for it
[07:35] <azurehuesofblue> lol, I promise to be less annoying in 7 days... but... wheres the dang recycle bin in gnome! :)
[07:35] <gnomefreak> gl0be: your trying to install the win drivers for linux?
[07:35] <gnomefreak> frank23: i know thats why i gave you the apt-get command
[07:36] <gl0be> gnomefreak: yes.  The linux vid drivers for the Intel chipset I have in my laptop dont work > 800.600
[07:36] <gnomefreak> ubuntu-desktop and ubuntu-desktop* are not the same
[07:36] <root404> anyone?
[07:36] <gnomefreak> gl0be: ubuntu doesnt have those drivers? i could have sworn i saw people saying they had it
[07:36] <GigaClon> is esd running?
[07:36] <amyn> gnomefreak,  i am having problems. when i click on users and group. A new window pops up and then closes itself. i need to change password of my userid and su
[07:36] <gnomefreak> gl0be: im not sure if cedega will do that but try
[07:37] <gnomefreak> amyn: if you changed your hostname that is the reason you are having that issue
[07:37] <gl0be> gnomefreak: yes, ubuntu has drivers.  But not drivers to do anything with my screen rez but 800x600... it goes to 1024.
[07:37] <zarephath> gnomefreak: Ok then :)
[07:37] <oskude> why does double-click on window title maximize the windiow, when theres allso a button for it...
[07:37] <rob_p> azurehuesofblue:  Look in ~/.Trash
[07:37] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell gl0be about fixres
[07:38] <wastrel> oskude:  because that's what it does in windows
[07:38] <root404> gnomefreak, want to help me out?
[07:38] <jeang> gl0be - try 855resolution or 915resolution for intel graphics
[07:38] <gnomefreak> johndarkhorse: yeah i knew that but ty
[07:38] <oskude> wastrel, lol
[07:38] <amyn> gnomefreak, yes i changed the hostname. what shall i do now ?? how do i fixed it ?
[07:38] <gl0be> jeang: where can I get those...I am on the 855 chipset
[07:38] <gnomefreak> amyn: not sure but alot of people have done that too
[07:38] <azurehuesofblue> k thanks rob_p
[07:38] <jeang> gl0be - 855resolution is in synaptic
[07:39] <gnomefreak> root404: i will not answer that until i see a problem
[07:39] <gl0be> jeang: thanks I will look in there
[07:39] <root404> My sound isn't working, it used to work before though.

[07:39] <gnomefreak> root404: i cant help with sound
[07:39] <ftp3> i need a custom ubuntu distro created.. are there any websites that tell how to do this?
[07:39] <gnomefreak> amyn: i dont use su (way are you using su)
[07:39] <jeang> gl0be - once you have them installed, google the ubuntu users list on how to set it up otherwise give a shout
[07:40] <oskude> ftp3, your better of looking for debian distro x (as ubuntu is based on debian)
[07:41] <gl0be> jeang: tx
[07:41] <ftp3> oskude, thank you
[07:41] <Stormx2> Yay I have 512mb more RAM :D

[07:42] <gnomefreak> edward1: that just brings up the picture
[07:42] <edward1> root404:  is sound muted?
[07:42] <gnomefreak> but yes those fps readings
[07:42] <edward1> gnomefreak: run it in a terminal
[07:42] <johndarkhorse> edward1: gnomefreak: there is a esoteric command suffix to get it to display framerates
[07:43] <root404> edward0, I don't think do, where do I check?
[07:43] <wicked_> hows 6.04 going
[07:43] <gl0be> jeang: okay.  (this always seems to happen to me....) when I apt-get the 855resolution pkg (after I updated) it says it cant find it.
[07:43] <wastrel> !glxgears
[07:43] <ubotu> To display the FPS type "glxgears -iacknowledgethatthistoolisnotabenchmark"
[07:44] <Wammy|> uhm

[07:51] <gnomefreak> Wammy|: that is strange i have never seen or heard about that one (make sure you have the kernel-resticed-modules installed for your kernel
[07:51] <gl0be> jeang: I will try from synaptic
[07:51] <edward1> root404: maybe something is already accessing the soundcard?

[07:51] <root404> edward0, like what\
[07:52] <gnomefreak> lspci should give you output even if the drivers are not installed
[07:52] <zarephath> Ummm..I thought that rhythmbox or one of the other players automatically searched cddb for album track information? If not what can I use to get the music cd information?
[07:52] <edward1> root404: what doesn't have sound? ... maybe esd
[07:52] <Wammy|> gnomefreak, i know :/
[07:52] <root404> edward0, esd?
[07:52] <jeang> gl0be - download 915resolution.deb from http://www.freshnet.org/debian/hoary/ - does the same job as 855res
[07:52] <bluescreen> Ok I have both ndiswrappermodules and ndiswrapper as .deb files and they cant install without eachother
[07:52] <edward1> root404: maybe gnome sounds were turned off?
[07:52] <root404> Nothing has sound at all anywhere :\
[07:52] <Howitzer> Hi
[07:52] <gnomefreak> Wammy|: maybe either a hardware issue or try filing a bug see what they say
[07:52] <bluescreen> how do I "link" them together?
[07:53] <Howitzer> How can i set the 'gnome-settings-daemon' to run on startup?
[07:53] <bluescreen> is there like something: dpkg --install file.deb --dependency=modules.deb
[07:53] <bluescreen> ?
[07:53] <root404> edward0, Nothing has sound anywhere
[07:53] <Howitzer> Because without it, fluxbox doesn't use my gnome DPI settings
[07:53] <gl0be> jeang: yea...still no 855resolution
[07:54] <jeang> gl0be - see above, you can d/l 915resolution from http://www.freshnet.org/debian/hoary/ it does the same job as 855 res
[07:56] <Howitzer> in what gnomefreak ?
[07:56] <gl0be> jeang: thanks
[07:56] <root404> edward0, I guess I do have sound, but no XChat doesn't :(

[08:02] <pder> UBUNTU ARE NOT WORK ON COMPUTER
[08:02] <gnomefreak> Howitzer: what numbers should i be looking at the 10000 or the 2000
[08:02] <oskude> pder, hmm, can't compute...
[08:02] <Howitzer> well
[08:02] <gnomefreak> pder: i will ask you again to turn off the caps lock key please

[08:02] <pder> gnomefreak: sorry about that
[08:02] <Howitzer> omfg
[08:02] <_jason> pder: ubuntu isn't for everyone, just use something else if you don't like it
[08:02] <Howitzer> you can make a normal sentence
[08:02] <Howitzer> good boy!
[08:03] <_jason> Howitzer: no need for that either
[08:03] <papi_> elo ppl :P
[08:03] <gnomefreak> Howitzer: i see something like 5996 frames in 5.0 seconds = 1199.161 FPS and it goes up
[08:03] <Amaranth> hey papi_, apokryphos
[08:03] <Howitzer> _jason, :( let me have fun
[08:04] <Howitzer> gnomefreak, it changes on wether(sp?) it's in focus or not
[08:04] <papi_> is this ubuntu linux irc :> ?
[08:04] <oskude> gnomefreak, yeah, maybe you get a highscore :)
[08:04] <gnomefreak> lol oskude
[08:04] <gnomefreak> it has to be because i cant install nvidia settings :(
[08:04] <apokryphos> hi Amaranth, how's it going?
[08:04] <gnomefreak> nvidia-settings
[08:05] <Amaranth> apokryphos: I just burned and labeled 100 CDs. With one computer. :/
[08:05] <edward1> gnomefreak: why can't you install it?
[08:05] <gl0be> jeang: is that website the only place to dl that library?  All of their deb files are empty.
[08:05] <Eidan> hi all
[08:05] <gnomefreak> edward1: it wont let me install both nvidia-settings and nvidia-glx one removes the other
[08:05] <DistroWatch> anyone running " systrace " ?
[08:06] <Howitzer> gnomefreak, impossible
[08:06] <apokryphos> Amaranth: yeouch, that must've taken some time. I did a similar thing once for a close family-friend's wedding (they wanted to give out the wedding soundtrack to everyone that came). Tedious business 8)
[08:06] <papi_> exit
[08:06] <gnomefreak> Howitzer: what is?
[08:06] <gnomefreak> i tried it all different ways
[08:06] <Howitzer> nvidia-settings works with nvidia-glx
[08:06] <gnomefreak> one depends on other but yet it wants to remove one to install other
[08:06] <Howitzer> Have you tried the official drivers?
[08:07] <Howitzer> i have those
[08:07] <Howitzer> it's not hard
[08:07] <wastrel> glxinfo | grep direct
[08:07] <gnomefreak> Howitzer: no i tried apt-get
[08:07] <progrock> I just installed xubuntu... is there an easy way to install all the system administrative apps hat gnome has by default (like user management, etc)
[08:07] <oskude> well, on debian apt-get remove exim4 wants to remove myslq :)
[08:07] <Eidan> someone can help me installing XGl pleae?
[08:07] <jeang> gl0be - gimme a mo!
[08:07] <oskude> *mysql
[08:07] <Eidan> *please
[08:07] <Nogimics> are some of the update servers down?
[08:07] <wastrel> !xgl

[08:07] <gnomefreak> wastrel: it will say yes
[08:07] <gl0be> I am having trouble downloading packages with apt-get/synaptic .  The packages can never be found (but I have all the universe/multiverse repositories enabled) does anybody have any hints on how to fix this
[08:07] <johndarkhorse> Eidan: join #ubuntu+1
[08:07] <Eidan> ok
[08:08] <oskude> cool, is that xgl the 3d desktop thing ?

[08:08] <Howitzer> do the official ones
[08:08] <pder> i am having trouble with my ubuntu machine locking up when attempting to access a joystick device.  has anyone experienced this?
[08:08] <Nogimics> are some of the update servers down?
[08:08] <gnomefreak> Howitzer: deb form?
[08:08] <Eidan> i'm stuck at the terminal...
[08:08] <gnomefreak> or am i compiling?
[08:08] <{-Sturm-}> hi, i have windows and linux installed in dual boot, i had mandriva installed on another hard drive but i formated over it with ubuntu and installed everything, however when i reboot i can't access ubuntu from grub, there's only the old version of mandriva i overwrote... how can i fix this?
[08:10] <skazi> col : here?
[08:10] <pder> sturm, you should be able to use the console within grub to point the the kernel and initrd image in your ubuntu partition then run boot
[08:11] <{-Sturm-}> pder: hmm k... im not sure how to do that however :| how can i know the name if my initrd image of the ubuntu partition?
[08:11] <oskude> sturm, didnt you format the partition and overwrite the grub in mbr ?
[08:11] <{-Sturm-}> osk: yeah
[08:12] <pder> oskude: i think the problem is he has an old menu.lst entry that is pointing to the mandriva kernel
[08:12] <{-Sturm-}> pder: yeah i think its something lik ethat
[08:12] <oskude> sturm, then i cant understand how you have "old" grub (settings) in there
[08:12] <jeang> gl0be - try http://packages.debian.org/unstable/x11/915resolution
[08:13] <{-Sturm-}> neither do i, but all i have hte option to choose is the old mandriva linux i had of installed, don'T see ubuntu nowhere
[08:13] <oskude> sturm, do you have a own partition for /boot ?
[08:13] <pder> sturm what is your grub root partition?
[08:13] <{-Sturm-}> hmm im not sure...how can i find out?
[08:14] <oskude> im just wondering how you can have old settings if you formatted all and installed grub in mbr
[08:14] <oskude> sturm, i think you made something wrong, is your windows still there ? :)
[08:14] <{-Sturm-}> i didn'T format all, i formated the hard drive that contained the old linux i had
[08:14] <{-Sturm-}> oskude: yeah windows still works fine
[08:15] <oskude> sturm, you mean partition..
[08:15] <{-Sturm-}> well the partition on the whole hard drive, i have 4 hard drives installed, 3 of them used in windows, 1 of them for linux
[08:15] <{-Sturm-}> i only had 1 partition on that hard drive and it was for linux
[08:15] <oskude> sturm, ok, that explains a lot
[08:16] <gl0be> jeang: now that looks like a package file with something in it ;-)
[08:16] <oskude> sturm you have to replace the mbr in hda
[08:16] <{-Sturm-}> hmmmmmmmm ya know what, actually i just restarted and tried to boot with failsafe, and now it seems to be installing ubuntu?
[08:16] <oskude> sturm your still having the old grub in the "master" HDs mbr
[08:16] <{-Sturm-}> hmm k, that would make sense
[08:16] <mirko> ciao
[08:16] <azurehuesofblue> how do I install a .run file?
[08:17] <pder> oskude: his grub configuration is not in the mbr
[08:17] <pder> oskude: it is in menu.lst which is on one of his partitions
[08:17] <oskude> pder, i know menu.lst is in /boot/grum/menu.lst
[08:17] <gl0be> jeang: okay.  maybe not. or maybe I dont know what I am doing. how do I run/compile this "program"?
[08:17] <oskude> but his old (mandriva) grub is still in hda's mbr
[08:17] <pder> oskude: he doesnt need to overwrite the mbr
[08:18] <oskude> pder, if mandirva has the same version as ubuntu...
[08:18] <{-Sturm-}> :|
[08:18] <{-Sturm-}> and mandriva doesn'T have the same kernel version as ubuntu, its an old kernel version
[08:18] <gl0be> jeang: n/m.  the "debina binary" file is just a text with "2.0" in it
[08:18] <zarephath> Uhh..is there something about restricted formats that won't let me hear playback in cd player from my music cd? It plays it...no sound...
[08:19] <oskude> well, my advise is to install "ubuntus grub" in hda mbr (but you may help him to do that from grub prompt)
[08:19] <jbroome> zarephath: you sure the cable from the cdrom to the soundcard is hooked up?
[08:19] <equador> what i must change ? now after 10s grub load linux, i want after 10s windows default ?
[08:19] <gl0be> I am having trouble downloading packages with apt-get/synaptic .  The packages can never be found (but I have all the universe/multiverse repositories enabled) does anybody have any hints on how to fix this
[08:19] <{-Sturm-}> osku: but that's what i did already...when ubuntu asked me to install grub on the mbr i said yes
[08:20] <zarephath> jbroome: Yep this is PPC and not PC
[08:20] <oskude> sturm, kernel version doesnt "interest" grub
[08:20] <equador> what i must change ? now after 10s grub load linux, i want after 10s windows default ?
[08:20] <oskude> sturm but not in HDA mbr i assume ?
[08:20] <jeang> gl0be - in the directory where you saved the file inside terminal window     sudo dpkg -i 915resolution???.deb
[08:20] <{-Sturm-}> well anyway, somehow i think it seems to be installing right now, after i selected the "failsafe" option in the grub menu
[08:20] <{-Sturm-}> so maybe ill be ok after all
[08:20] <oskude> sturm pc's read only the mbr from hda
[08:21] <{-Sturm-}> k
[08:21] <gnomefreak> equador: the starter guide in your help icon will walk you throught hat i think its under tips&tricks
[08:21] <gnomefreak> s/throught/through
[08:21] <oskude> sturm you can say all thats writtten in menu.lst manually on the grub prompt
[08:21] <equador> i dont find :/
[08:22] <gnomefreak> equador: are you using breezy?
[08:22] <oskude> strum so aslong you get grub, you can run linux from "anywhere"
[08:22] <{-Sturm-}> k
[08:22] <equador> gnomefreak, yes :)
[08:22] <gnomefreak> equador: with gnome?
[08:22] <equador> yes with gnome
[08:23] <gnomefreak> equador: at the top of the screen you will see a life perserver thingy white and red in there you will find the starter guide
[08:23] <{-Sturm-}> oskude: now, if the installation goes ok with ubuntu as its going right now, i should be ok and be able to modify the grub loader menu once im in right?
[08:23] <john_jimmy> I cannot get the firefox1.0.7 to play sound on ubuntu breeezy 5.10
[08:23] <john_jimmy> Any help would be appreciated
[08:24] <cmpalmer> john_jimmy: what kind of file?
[08:24] <oskude> sturm if the grum in hda's mbr is pointing to the ubuntus menu.lst
[08:24] <oskude> *grub
[08:24] <john_jimmy> a flash
[08:24] <john_jimmy> file
[08:24] <gnomefreak> !flash
[08:24] <ubotu> somebody said flash was installation & troublshooting is covered in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[08:24] <{-Sturm-}> ahh k
[08:24] <Kr4t05> !apache
[08:24] <ubotu> from memory, apache is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ApacheMySQLPHP
[08:24] <oskude> sturm, i would reinstall grub in hda mbr
[08:24] <cmpalmer> john_jimmy: what ubotu said
[08:25] <{-Sturm-}> ok....so how would i go about doing that? is it possible to do it directly from the ubuntu install cd?
[08:25] <john_jimmy> cmpalmer I installed
[08:25] <john_jimmy> cmpalmer Flash player
[08:25] <john_jimmy> But still
[08:25] <oskude> sturm, grub-install /dev/hda (but im not sure)
[08:25] <oskude> !grub
[08:25] <ubotu> http://wiki.ubuntu.com/GrubHowto or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows or troubleshooting grub: http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/grub.html#Troubleshooting
[08:25] <{-Sturm-}> k
[08:25] <cmpalmer> john_jimmy: you can play other sources of sound without problems?
[08:26] <john_jimmy> cmpalmer, yes
[08:26] <oskude> sturm or if you have scsi, its propably /dev/sda
[08:26] <john_jimmy> cpalmer it plays everything well
[08:26] <cmpalmer> john_jimmy: and you've restarted firefox since installing flash, yes?
[08:27] <john_jimmy> cmplaer ...I guess ..I did...YES
[08:27] <{-Sturm-}> yeah the main hard drive is installed as scsi
[08:27] <gnomefreak> john_jimmy: close all firefox windows and reopen ff see if it works thean
[08:27] <gnomefreak> than
[08:28] <john_jimmy> cmpalmer
[08:28] <john_jimmy> ok
[08:28] <oskude> strum, i never had scsi, but i remember reading that its /dev/sda and so on (but i could be wrong)
[08:28] <cmpalmer> john_jimmy: still no sound after restarting firefox?
[08:28] <{-Sturm-}> k
[08:29] <gnomefreak> psssssst there was a troubleshooting section in that wiki btw
[08:29] <oskude> i just know that my flash sticks come as /dev/sd* :)
[08:29] <john_jimmy> cmpalmer, wait ..
[08:30] <john_jimmy> cmpalmer thanks
[08:30] <john_jimmy> I got it now
[08:30] <gnomefreak> :)
[08:30] <cmpalmer> john_jimmy: np
[08:30] <mivecz> I Want  help pls
[08:30] <gnomefreak> !helpme
[08:30] <ubotu> If you don't actually ask a question, we can not actually help you.
[08:30] <gl0be> jeang: whew.  thankyou for your help. I think I am getting somewhere now.  I can get a list of my video modes, but now what do I have to do with that ?
[08:30] <oskude> hmm, now im interested, if you have scsi and ide drivers, do you have /dev/hda and /dev/sda ?
[08:30] <{-Sturm-}> hmmm
[08:31] <gnomefreak> oskude: no they will not be same hard drive
[08:31] <{-Sturm-}> well actually its not a scsi disk, but a sata one, but its installed as a scsi i think or recognized as so anyway...
[08:31] <gnomefreak> you would have one hd and one sd
[08:31] <oskude> and witch one will be read first ? ( i assume bios knows that=
[08:31] <salah_> Hi, When I run gmplayer Than it gives this msg-The fontconfig option can't be used in a config file.
[08:31] <salah_> Error parsing option fontconfig=yes at line 11
[08:31] <salah_> Warning unknown option subfont-text-scale at line 13
[08:31] <salah_> What I shd do?
[08:31] <oskude> sturm, ok, never had sata neither :)
[08:31] <gnomefreak> oskude: whatever one is set as master
[08:31] <mivecz> i iwant  to instal  xfce4  and  i  find  a  site for  xfce themes   http://xfce-look.org so i  join i  try to   understand  what is  GTK I x GTK 2 x
[08:31] <cmpalmer> salah_: install mplayers fonts
[08:32] <jeang> gl0be - ok, if you can see a mode that you system will display, you need to edit /etc/init.d/bootmisc.sh
[08:32] <zarephath> They will have different device nodes for the devices...I presume Ubuntu uses udev..so at bootime udev looks at hardware and assigns a node it thinks should go to that node name...
[08:32] <{-Sturm-}> i have one of them little fast raptor drives, really nice :)
[08:32] <mivecz> so  WHAT IS  gtk i x
[08:32] <salah_> I installed
[08:32] <gnomefreak> mivecz: sudo apt-get isntall xubuntu-desktop   that will give youxfce
[08:32] <oskude> so as user (not seeing the hardware) its hard to know which one is "master" hd, hda or sda ?
[08:32] <salah_> so do I need to Install whole part again?
[08:32] <cmpalmer> salah_: you installed the "mplayer-fonts" package?
[08:32] <gnomefreak> mivecz: if you are using breezy or dapper it will be gtk2 by default
[08:33] <oskude> am i glad that i only have ide :)
[08:33] <gnomefreak> oskude: correct
[08:33] <salah_> how canI do that?>
[08:33] <gnomefreak> me too :)
[08:33] <mivecz> i use  gnome
[08:33] <zarephath> oskude: First thing to do is look at dmesg that should tell you what was detected and in most cases the assignment that has been made for a given device...
[08:33] <mivecz> can i  install gtk2 themes?
[08:33] <cmpalmer> salah_: how did you install mplayer?
[08:33] <gnomefreak> mivecz: you said you wanted xfce
[08:33] <{-Sturm-}> oskude: hmm, well i had to change the boot order in the bios
[08:33] <gnomefreak> mivecz: yes you can
[08:33] <SperMite> how do you change the inter ip on ur computer?
[08:33] <jeang> gl0be - at the end of the first section of uncommented text add '915resolution 7d 1280 800 ' without the apostrophes and that is the setting for my laptop, yours will be different
[08:33] <{-Sturm-}> it was a pain in the ass to set all that up to be honest
[08:34] <wk2001> can someone help me with sane/xsane? i have a brother scanner and i made the installation like described on brother site, bur xsane doesn't load
[08:34] <mivecz> xfe4 what is ?
[08:34] <gl0be> jeang: hang on...I think I got it but I need to reboot
[08:34] <{-Sturm-}> i have 2 sata drives, 2 IDE
[08:34] <gnomefreak> !xfce
[08:34] <ubotu> from memory, xfce is a lightweight Desktop Environment that uses GTK. to install, "sudo apt-get install xfce4" or "sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop". http://www.xfce.org/
[08:34] <jeang> yes reboot is required...
[08:34] <Kr4t05> !apache
[08:34] <ubotu> methinks apache is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ApacheMySQLPHP
[08:34] <gnomefreak> satas have always been a pain
[08:34] <oskude> sturm, all through motherboard, or do you have extra controller card ?
[08:34] <gl0be> jeang: is 7d the mode?
[08:34] <boz> Hello, Can someone point me in the right direction to the executable beep file (for making an m3u link automaticall play in Beep??
[08:35] <{-Sturm-}> all through motherboard
[08:35] <{-Sturm-}> its full, i don't think i can add anymore ;)
[08:35] <oskude> sturm, normal is 4 (ide) devices...
[08:35] <jeang> gl0be - no that i mine for my laptop, if you run 915resolution -l itwill give you a list of resolutions your card can do, pick the one you want and use that in bootmisc.sh
[08:35] <{-Sturm-}> well i have 1 cd rom and 1 dvd drive also :)
[08:36] <gl0be> jeang: right, but where you put 7d, is that your MODE number?
[08:36] <jeang> gl0be - yes
[08:36] <cmpalmer> salah_: you have enabled universe, yes?
[08:36] <mivecz> i get  error
[08:36] <SperMite> how do i change the inter ip on my box ??
[08:36] <{-Sturm-}> well the installation failed with the failsafe thing, im reinstalling ubuntu again, gonna reformat for the 3rd time and this time, ill see if i can choose the right place to install grub
[08:36] <harfooz> Is there a way to configure Evolution so that files above, say 50K for instance, are not downloaded automatically?
[08:37] <mivecz> when i start  to apt-get install  xfce4
[08:37] <oskude> sturm, well, back to your problem, you have to find out where ubuntu is pointing your master harddrive and replace the grub in its mbr
[08:37] <gl0be> jeang: okay.  what about editing the /etc/boot/915resolution file? do I have to specify the mode in both places?
[08:37] <mivecz> when i start  to apt-get install  xfce4 i get error  can  anyone help
[08:37] <harfooz> And another Evolution question: Can I config Evolution so that HTML is ignored and only plain text is displayed?
[08:37] <jeang> gl0be - no, i only touched the bootmisc.sh file
[08:37] <{-Sturm-}> k
[08:37] <{-Sturm-}> i will probably see once it asks me if i want ot install grub
[08:38] <gl0be> jeang . okay. brb then...
[08:38] <oskude> sturm as you said you installed the grub in hda's mbr, the "master" hd is propably then /dev/sda
[08:38] <gnomefreak> mivecz: sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[08:38] <{-Sturm-}> there are two options to partition, i can either erase entire disk, or erase entire disk and use LZVM
[08:38] <{-Sturm-}> what's lvm?
[08:38] <gnomefreak> locale volume manager
[08:38] <johndarkhorse> {-Sturm-}: logical volume mangler

[08:39] <{-Sturm-}> ok, what does it do
[08:39] <{-Sturm-}> ;)
[08:39] <oskude> sturm i think with lvm you can use many partitions as one
[08:39] <oskude> but dunno, never used...
[08:39] <{-Sturm-}> ahh yeah ok
[08:39] <{-Sturm-}> nm that
[08:39] <mivecz> i get error  again  gnomefreak
[08:39] <gnomefreak> {-Sturm-}: i never installed lvm on purpose
[08:39] <gnomefreak> mivecz: what is the error?
[08:39] <oskude> and theres allso an option to manually partiotion...
[08:39] <gnomefreak> and please dont paste it
[08:39] <mivecz> can i msg  you private?
[08:39] <gnomefreak> yes
[08:40] <Howitzer> gnomefreak, have you tried the nvidia drivers howto i pasted yet?
[08:40] <gnomefreak> Howitzer: yes and i didnt see anything about the nvidia site drivers
[08:41] <gnomefreak> Howitzer: they are gonna have to fix that in dapper anyway so i filed a bug
[08:42] <mivecz> you see  gnomefreak
[08:43] <globe> jeang: can you post that command again (for the bootmisc file)?
[08:43] <Kr4t05> !ftp

[08:46] <Jonnings> Is it possible to have the panel tabs disappear when switching to another workspace?
[08:47] <cmpalmer> Jonnings: what do you mean? you mean get rid of the workspace switcher in the panel?
[08:47] <mivecz> can i paste  you  somewhere because  i am  not register i am unregister
[08:47] <gnomefreak> mivecz: use pastebin
[08:47] <Jonnings> no, when switching to a different workspace the tabs still remain in the panel
[08:47] <gnomefreak> !pastebin
[08:47] <ubotu> somebody said pastebin was a site where you can post large texts and screenshots so you don't flood the channel. You can find it at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org - Install webboard for easy pasting from the gnome taskbar :)
[08:47] <Jonnings> is it possible to avoid that
[08:47] <johndarkhorse> ubotu: tell mivecz about register
[08:48] <oskude> !webboard
[08:48] <ubotu> oskude: I haven't a clue, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[08:48] <oskude> doh
[08:48] <gnomefreak> lol
[08:48] <gnomefreak> oskude: its on the right hand side of pastebin site
[08:48] <{-Sturm-}> oskude: ok, now im there...it asks me "Install the grub boot loader to the master boot record?" usually when i say yes, i reboot and nothing works
[08:48] <gnomefreak> download it dpkg -i it and than add it to your panel
[08:49] <{-Sturm-}> then if i select NO, i can choose where i want it installed
[08:49] <gnomefreak> oskude: or apt-get install it
[08:49] <oskude> sturm, yes cause it install to the MBR of the disk where you installed
[08:49] <oskude> sturm, NOT the "master" harddisk (what bios says as "master")
[08:49] <dstryr> why would be the problem why X wont start?
[08:49] <{-Sturm-}> ok
[08:49] <feza> how I configure samba for linux and look from window?
[08:49] <cmpalmer> Jonnings: not that I know of
[08:49] <gnomefreak> dstryr: what does it say?
[08:50] <{-Sturm-}> damn i should'Ve looked which was master when i rebooted to make sure
[08:50] <oskude> sturm if you KNOW its a "scsi" its propably /dev/sda
[08:50] <cmpalmer> Jonnings: you could get rid of the area in the panel that shows tabs altogether

[09:06] <dstryr> or stopx
[09:07] <dstryr> ?
[09:07] <knight> ?
[09:07] <mivecz> i   must  go to     format it
[09:07] <johndarkhorse> dstryr: that is the correct command. it should be prefaced with 'sudo'
[09:07] <mivecz> and  reinstall it
[09:07] <gnomefreak> mivecz: you can do 1 of 2 things right now either reinstall breezy or dist-upgrade to dapper but dapper will and can break
[09:07] <oskude> john_jimmy, hmm, maybe "dpkg-recomfigure gdm" could help....
[09:07] <oskude> john_jimmy, hmm, maybe "dpkg-reconfigure gdm" could help....
[09:07] <eri1> help please - I accidentaly overwrote root user in phpmyadmin and locked myself out, any way to fix that?
[09:07] <mivecz> gnome  how  many time  get to  update
[09:08] <mivecz> i have  adsl  256
[09:08] <john_jimmy> oskude, But I cant even get to a shell there
[09:08] <jeang> globe - see maybe if you can track down a version of 855resolution and try the same with that, dunno, the 855 chipset should work with the 915res file, but maybe not in your case??
[09:08] <gnomefreak> mivecz: about 7 hours to upgrade to dapper depending on connection speed
[09:08] <mivecz> i have  the cd:P)
[09:08] <gnomefreak> maybe 5ish for you than
[09:08] <oskude> john_jimmy, you cant login in ctrl+alt+f1 ?
[09:08] <globe> jeang ... thats what I am thinking
[09:08] <globe> jeang do I have to uninstal the 915 ?
[09:08] <gnomefreak> mivecz: good i recommend installing breezy
[09:08] <mivecz> i download it  allready  last night  but i dont install it  yet
[09:09] <john_jimmy> oskude, I will try .. let me reboot and come back
[09:09] <oskude> john_jimmy, no need to restart..
[09:09] <john_jimmy> oskude, I will boot into the ubuntu that has problem
[09:09] <mivecz> breeze is  5.10 these one?
[09:09] <gnomefreak> yes mivecz ubuntu breezy badger 5.10
[09:09] <john_jimmy> oskude, Yes I installed it on another partition aswell
[09:09] <oskude> john_jimmy, ah ok
[09:09] <mivecz> ok   what  bout  sources list
[09:09] <mivecz> what  i must  do
[09:09] <john_jimmy> oskude, dont ask me why... But i did it :-)
[09:10] <gnomefreak> mivecz: worry about that after you install it
[09:10] <mivecz> ok
[09:10] <oskude> john_jimmy, i got 3linuxes on my notebook too
[09:10] <mivecz> thnks
[09:10] <gnomefreak> yw
[09:10] <mivecz> i  go to install it
[09:10] <mivecz> thnks
[09:10] <jeang> globe - don't think so as bootmisc will call 855resolution, but if you want to you should be able to remove it thru synaptic now as dpkg will insert an entry into synaptic
[09:10] <john_jimmy> oskude, 3 ubuntus?
[09:10] <oskude> i got 20gb hd (an as i dont leech or so) i installed many linuxes to use the space :)
[09:10] <progrock> anyone know what package has the gnome user management?
[09:11] <uein> where can I get the driver snd_hda_intel?
[09:11] <oskude> john_jimmy, 2ubuntu and debian
[09:11] <gnomefreak> 2ubuntu?
[09:11] <globe> jeang: makes sense.  one last question....(thanks again btw) when I installed 915 with the dpkg cmd, it said something about enabling previously disabled something-or-other. could that be why I cant apt-get things?
[09:11] <john_jimmy> oskude,  aha... will be right back
[09:11] <{-Sturm-}> well that crap didn'T work again
[09:11] <john_jimmy> oskude, if i can login throu ctrl alt 1
[09:12] <john_jimmy> oskude,  what do i do
[09:12] <{-Sturm-}> i get a flashing screen with weird colors and lines everywhere
[09:12] <oskude> john_jimmy, hmm
[09:12] <john_jimmy> oskude, just sudo apt-get clean
[09:12] <oskude> john_jimmy, try "sudo apt-get clean" :)
[09:12] <john_jimmy> oskude, or should i reconfig gdm
[09:12] <oskude> john_jimmy, you could try allso that
[09:12] <jeang> globe - no, it is merely to inform you that it is installing some dependencies you did not explicitly ask for.
[09:12] <john_jimmy> oskude, Okay thanks ..will be back
[09:12] <jeang> globe - get 855 here .... http://rpmseek.com/rpm-pl/855resolution.html?hl=com&crt=0:-:0::::2
[09:13] <john_jimmy> oskude,  c ya
[09:13] <oskude> sturm, when you try to start x ?
[09:13] <oskude> john_jimmy, bb
[09:13] <jeang> globe - are you connecting to the net thru a proxy?
[09:13] <OmegaAlpha> anyone know how to get programs to appear in your applications menu after they are installed via terminal?
[09:14] <globe> jeang - no but I am on a lan with router firewall
[09:14] <oskude> OmegaAlpha, only if they have a "definition" file for the gnome menu
[09:15] <rysiek|pl> hi there
[09:15] <jeang> globe- ok, some time you have to manually configure the proxy in synaptic
[09:15] <oskude> OmegaAlpha, then they should appear right away, or do "sudo kill gnome-panel" (but some taskbar icons may dissappear)
[09:15] <rysiek|pl> got a question: how come dpkg-reconfigure linux-image-$( uname -r ) makes me a new initrd... but *not* according to /etc/mkinitrd/mkinitrd.conf? o_O
[09:15] <cj> I'm asking MC Frontalot to write a song about Ubuntu:
[09:15] <cj> http://cjcollier.livejournal.com/tag/vsp
[09:15] <{-Sturm-}> oskude: yeah
[09:16] <oskude> {-Sturm-}, then your x setttings are not correct (its normal ;)

[09:17] <{-Sturm-}> odkude: yeah but i can'T seem to be ablet o change anything anywhere, and i choose a resolution of 800x600, there shouldn'T be any problem
[09:17] <globe> jeang: does it matter which version I get (4-1|3-4)?
[09:17] <oskude> {-Sturm-}, and please take those curly brackets out of your name (if you wish to see your name in messages)
[09:17] <{-Sturm-}> haha sure
[09:17] <oskude> Sturm---, thnx :)
[09:17] <Sturm---> np :)
[09:17] <oskude> Sturm---, im lazy to press alt+7
[09:18] <Sturm---> many scripts don'T like my brackets
[09:18] <lucasvo_> johndarkhorse: I know, I accidentally pasted something
[09:18] <mandarin> hi, is there something like 'apt-get upgrade security' kind of thing? i only want to keep up with the security update..
[09:18] <OmegaAlpha> oskude, i installed this program before on a previous ubuntu installation and it appeared in the apps menu but now it wont
[09:19] <Sturm---> osk: so at bootup, how can i change the x window settings?
[09:19] <johndarkhorse> mandarin: the security updates are up to date
[09:19] <oskude> OmegaAlpha, did you try to relog ?
[09:19] <OmegaAlpha> oskude, but nothing i download and install appears in the menus..
[09:19] <OmegaAlpha> oskude, yes,,, i tried relogging in and restarting the computer as well
[09:19] <jeang> globe - presume newer is better?
[09:19] <johndarkhorse> mandarin: or, your system will keep up with them as long as they are enabled in your sources.list
[09:20] <oskude> Sturm---, hmm, i got the same problem with debian sid atm, pc freezes when startin x so ican even get to console
[09:20] <Sturm---> k
[09:20] <oskude> Sturm---, do you get to ctrl+alt+f1 ?
[09:20] <mike-e> can i mount a ufs drive to ubuntu?
[09:20] <mandarin> johndarkhorse: apt-get upgrade will upgrade everything that is upgradable. but i _only_ want to do security upgrade as specified.
[09:20] <mike-e> and read/write to it?
[09:20] <cmpalmer> OmegaAlpha: I didn't forget you. sorry.
[09:20] <oskude> OmegaAlpha, then theres propably something missing/broke...
[09:20] <globe> jeang: I would think so... but oh boy...that alot of dead links
[09:20] <cmpalmer> OmegaAlpha: I just got swamped here
[09:20] <jeang> globe - is your sources.list like http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6047
[09:21] <OmegaAlpha> cmpalmer, hehe i know. i figure you were having probs
[09:21] <jeang> globe - the web is full of them....
[09:21] <OmegaAlpha> oskude, thanks for your help.  but i dont think thats whats wrong since this happens with every program i install
[09:21] <oskude> OmegaAlpha, but, hoary did find my HP pcs1200 automaticly, breezy didnt :)
[09:21] <OmegaAlpha> cmpalmer, any luck?
[09:22] <oskude> OmegaAlpha, hmm, did you allso try the applications - add application ?
[09:22] <Sturm---> oskude: i did ctrl alt f1 but don'T see anything
[09:22] <gnomefreak> apt-get upgrade will not upgrade kernel
[09:22] <globe> jeang: yea, I found one.
[09:22] <Sturm---> plain black screen
[09:22] <themachine> I made a simply C++ program, how can I install it into my console? what keywords should I look up on a search engine?
[09:22] <OmegaAlpha> oskude, its wierd.. i installed ubuntu two weeks ago.. it recognized my ext hd.. and installed some progs on the menu.. now this new installation.. does neither
[09:22] <themachine> simple*
[09:23] <slabby> hi
[09:23] <oskude> Sturm---, hmm, then you may have to boot in "recovery mode" and
[09:23] <gnomefreak> themachine: did you compile it?
[09:23] <themachine> yes
[09:23] <themachine> it runs fine
[09:23] <slabby> hi themachine
[09:23] <cmpalmer> OmegaAlpha: 'fraid not
[09:23] <oskude> Sturm---, edit the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file
[09:23] <themachine> hello
[09:23] <gnomefreak> than just run it you cant install it to console
[09:23] <slabby> remember me?
[09:23] <cmpalmer> OmegaAlpha: I'm having trouble with Xauth
[09:23] <themachine> well I want to make it into a command I can use
[09:24] <slabby> i need some help with installing ubuntu
[09:24] <OmegaAlpha> oskude, no i havent.. im not familiar with using that
[09:24] <slabby> i have come up to an error
[09:24] <slabby> best place to ask?
[09:24] <gnomefreak> ./file.cpp doesnt work?
[09:24] <Sturm---> ahh im shooting in the dark here
[09:24] <Sturm---> hmmmm
[09:24] <oskude> OmegaAlpha, its like synaptic, and it should 100% add menu entries whe prog installed
[09:25] <Sturm---> how about if i format that hard drive with windows, reboot, format it with linux again...?
[09:25] <gnomefreak> themachine: i would write a bash script for it see the abs guide in synaptic for details on how to write one
[09:25] <slabby> where is the best place to ask for install help for ubuntu? I have an error
[09:25] <themachine> ah thanks
[09:25] <johndarkhorse> slabby: ask here.
[09:25] <progrock> Anyone knwo a good GUI user manager?
[09:25] <slabby> ok
[09:25] <johndarkhorse> progrock: system > prefs > users and groups
[09:25] <OmegaAlpha> oskude, k im looking at it now.. its mostly KDE apps.. and my progs i want are not listed...
[09:26] <oskude> OmegaAlpha, hmm
[09:26] <progrock> johndarkhorse, I'm not using gnome
[09:26] <oskude> OmegaAlpha, in "worst-case" you could add the programs manually to the menu
[09:26] <gnomefreak> progrock: than why were you asking about gnome manager before?
[09:27] <progrock> gnomefreak, because i figured i could install those and run them in xfce...
[09:27] <slabby> I have installed all fine apart from one problem it wouldnt auto find my network so I config'd it myself. I am pretty sure ive done it right. Then when the install was all finished (or so i believe). It started to load then came up with and error on X server. It offers me information about the error and says to check for new versions of X server in the internet, and when reading further down it says "no screens found"
[09:27] <gnomefreak> progrock: is gnome installed at all?
[09:27] <slabby> what is wrong?
[09:27] <oskude> Sturm---, login in "recovery mode" and edit the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file "nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf" and
[09:27] <progrock> gnomefreak, nope... but i dont mind installing components... im just runnign xfce as personal preference
[09:28] <slabby> oh and btw im using the x64 version
[09:28] <Sturm---> Sturm well i can'T even log in recovery mode
[09:28] <oskude> Sturm---, look that the "driver" is same as your GFX card/chip and
[09:28] <oskude> Sturm---, hmm
[09:28] <gnomefreak> mines listed in my xfce menu but i also have gnoem installed
[09:28] <gnomefreak> gnome
[09:28] <oskude> Sturm---, i must admit, i never used that "recovery mode"...
[09:28] <slabby> any one who can help me?
[09:28] <mpupu> is there any reason why my laptop doesn't turn off after a shutdown using the 2.6.12.10 kernel? it works fine with 2.10.5
[09:29] <Sturm---> yeah im running out of idea, but its stupid, if i format the whole damn hard drive, there must be a simple way to update/remove that damn grub loader
[09:29] <oskude> Sturm---, maybe you cant tell grub to start ubuntu in a init mode that doesnt start x...
[09:30] <slabby> can anyone help me please?
[09:30] <progrock> gnomefreak, so bascalyl ifi install gnome everything should appear?
[09:30] <OmegaAlpha> oskude, how do you add them manually?
[09:30] <john_jimmy> oskude, I still cant login
[09:30] <oskude> OmegaAlpha, right click in the menu (applications) in the panel
[09:30] <oskude> john_jimmy, not even on the console ?
[09:30] <zAo^> does anyone know how to get this on Dapper: http://shots.osdir.com/slideshows/460/4.gif
[09:30] <john_jimmy> oskude, I tried the apt-get clean and the gdm reconfig
[09:31] <john_jimmy> oskude, I can get to the console
[09:31] <cmpalmer> OmegaAlpha: I'm sorry. did you find help elsewhere?
[09:31] <oskude> john_jimmy, ok
[09:31] <john_jimmy> oskude, but from there I cant
[09:31] <slabby> can anyone help me please?
[09:31] <oskude> john_jimmy, so "sudo apt-get clean" and "sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm" didnt help ?
[09:32] <john_jimmy> oskude, yes
[09:32] <john_jimmy> oskude, what do i do?
[09:32] <oskude> john_jimmy, sec
[09:33] <slabby> can anyone help me please?
[09:33] <stupendo44> slabby: did you state your problem yet?
[09:33] <_jason> !helpme
[09:33] <ubotu> If you don't actually ask a question, we can not actually help you.
[09:33] <slabby> i have asked it twice
[09:33] <slabby> I have installed all fine apart from one problem it wouldnt auto find my network so I config'd it myself. I am pretty sure ive done it right. Then when the install was all finished (or so i believe). It started to load then came up with and error on X server. It offers me information about the error and says to check for new versions of X server in the internet, and when reading further down it says "no screens found"
[09:33] <oskude> john_jimmy, maybe still a reboot, and if still doesnt work, maybe asking on a gnome channel
[09:33] <Syns> granted sometimes we ask in vain
[09:34] <slabby> hope that makes sense
[09:34] <cmpalmer> slabby: your problem is not a network problem
[09:34] <cmpalmer> slabby: look at the errors it gives you
[09:34] <cmpalmer> slabby: that will tell you what you need to fix when you reconfigure xorg
[09:34] <stupendo44> slabby: do you have a more specific error message?
[09:34] <globe> what is the syntax of the dpkg cmd to install a .deb file?
[09:34] <john_jimmy> oskude, Okay...
[09:35] <cmpalmer> globe: dpkg -i foo.deb
[09:35] <slabby> there is lots about diagnostic
[09:35] <oskude> john_jimmy, and tell them that you had partition full
[09:35] <globe> cpalmer: thk
[09:35] <oskude> john_jimmy, and now gdm wont let you login
[09:35] <slabby> the key point seemed to be "no screen found" i can look for more if that'll help
[09:35] <OmegaAlpha> cmpalmer, yes.. dont worry about it.. its not that important.. this is something i have been putting off and will probably put off again lol
[09:35] <oskude> john_jimmy, even after you made space
[09:35] <john_jimmy> oskude, http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-76736.html
[09:36] <john_jimmy> oskude, may be this will work?
[09:36] <cmpalmer> OmegaAlpha: as a workaround you can add the "run command" applet to your panel
[09:36] <Sturm---> what the hell
[09:36] <engla> I had my whole gnome-session killed. Everything just stalled, the cursor just jumped and nothing happened. I tried to kill X, but only after 2 minutes did X die and restart. The message "*** glibc detected *** corrupted double-linked list: 0x00355848 ***" was left in tty 7, gdm started anew in tty 8. Which package shoudl I file that bug against? ;-)
[09:36] <Sturm---> i booted in windows, then rebooted and i didn'T look at the screen but somehow, i see ubuntu starting up
[09:36] <Sturm---> weird weird stuff going on :|
[09:36] <slabby> cmpalmer, stupendo44 : what do i need to do then? do you want more info from the error?
[09:37] <globe> what is the cmd to extract a tgz file?
[09:37] <john_jimmy> oskude, do broken packages do that?
[09:37] <john_jimmy> oskude,  I mean mess up my gdm?
[09:37] <oskude> john_jimmy, you could try "sudo apt-get install --reinstall gdm"
[09:37] <oskude> john_jimmy, you had it working, so no
[09:37] <Pybe> globe: tar xzvf file.tgz
[09:38] <oskude> john_jimmy, broken packages come mostly upon installation
[09:38] <globe> Pybe: thanks
[09:38] <Pybe> globe: np
[09:38] <john_jimmy> oskude,  so what do I do
[09:38] <oskude> john_jimmy, you could try "sudo apt-get install --reinstall gdm"
[09:38] <stupendo44> slabby: a more specific error would help
[09:38] <slabby> ok brb
[09:38] <slabby> will go and get more
[09:39] <gnomefreak> progrock: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[09:39] <gnomefreak> that will get you everything
[09:39] <oskude> slabby, you could post your xorg.conf in pastepin or so...
[09:39] <john_jimmy> oskude, ok.. brb
[09:39] <muletool> i cant get the sound to work using a es1371
[09:40] <progrock> gnomefreak, thats not going to mess up my xubuntu install?
[09:40] <gnomefreak> nope
[09:40] <knight> how do I stop x server
[09:40] <knight> how do I stop xserver
[09:40] <gnomefreak> iirc gnome and xfce use gdm

[09:43] <knight> I need to stop xserver because I want to install drivers
[09:43] <slabby> stupendo44 : It says [EE]  No devices deteced     Fatal Server error: No screens found
[09:44] <Shmee> how can I have gnome load at boot instead of command line?
[09:44] <Shmee> i'm fairly new to linux.
[09:45] <Seveas> Shmee, it loads at boot by default...
[09:45] <Seveas> unless you did a server install
[09:45] <Shmee> o.o
[09:45] <Shmee> I think I did a server install.
[09:46] <Shmee> damn
[09:46] <_u_> i followed http://help.ubuntu.com/starterguide/C/ch04.html#installatidriver but when i restart, the xserver dosnt want to load... its the last line in point 2
[09:46] <_u_> i dunno what i should do
[09:46] <Seveas> Shmee, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[09:46] <Seveas> that'll correct it 
[09:46] <_u_> lol
[09:46] <Shmee> thanks Seveas
[09:46] <gnomefreak> ubuntu-desktop will install x?
[09:47] <Morfosomo> that worked,..
[09:47] <slabby> stupendo

[09:47] <slabby> stupendo44 : It says [EE]  No devices deteced     Fatal Server error: No screens found
[09:47] <cmpalmer> slabby: then your xorg.conf is telling xorg to look for something other than your video card
[09:48] <eidolon> hey folks - i'm trying to get some USB mappings working with hotplug - problem is, /etc/hotplug/usb/ is -empty-.  shouldn't there be a bunch of basic usb configuration scripts there?

[09:48] <Seveas> . .. erobe.txt
[09:49] <stupendo44> slabby: I'm afraid that I won't be much help. I'm not sure where to fix the problem. My first guess would be something amiss in /etc/X11/xorg,conf
[09:49] <stupendo44> *     /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[09:49] <slabby> cmpalmer : I have a Radeon X800 - PCI express
[09:49] <slabby> is it a driver issue then?
[09:49] <Sturm---> so, i can finally boot in ubuntu, but the settings are wrong and i only see a mix of colors and lines, how can i go about fixing this? i can access the terminal with ctrl-alt-f1
[09:49] <cmpalmer> slabby: yes
[09:49] <gnomefreak> slabby: did you disable the onboard card?
[09:50] <slabby> i dont have an onboard graphics card
[09:50] <ian_> Anyone installed Ubuntu on an iMac?
[09:51] <oskude> Sturm---, try running "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" and dont let it automaticly configure
[09:52] <oskude> Sturm---, and do you have a agp graphics card ?
[09:52] <slabby> gnomefreak or stupendo or anyone else that can help
[09:52] <Sturm---> yeah its an agp
[09:52] <Sturm---> a 6600GT
[09:53] <cmpalmer> slabby: try the ati driver
[09:53] <cmpalmer> !ati
[09:53] <ubotu> hmm... ati is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI or http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=24557&page=1&pp=10 or http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=423589
[09:53] <slabby> I have found the solution to me problem but I need to know how to do it in simple noob steps
[09:53] <slabby> http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=417163
[09:53] <slabby> that seems to explain it
[09:53] <gnomefreak> slabby: did you run sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg?
[09:53] <slabby> same Gcard as me
[09:53] <slabby> no how do i do that
[09:53] <slabby> after the error it takes me to login screen
[09:54] <slabby> asking for user and PSW
[09:54] <oskude> Sturm---, im no l337, is that an ati or nvidia ?
[09:54] <ubuntu> hello
[09:54] <slabby> how do i run that command gnomefreak?
[09:55] <_u_> ati seems to suck ;) everyone has problems with this stuff
[09:55] <gnomefreak> slabby: iin a terminal type sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[09:55] <gnomefreak> _u_: thats why i got a nvidia card today and still dont have 3d :(
[09:55] <slabby> gnomefreak : sorry for being a nub but how do i get to a terminal type?
[09:55] <ubuntu> i am spanish
[09:56] <soundray> _u_: the major consumer graphics cards vendors (ATI and NVidia) have sacrificed stability and quality for "gaming" performance.
[09:56] <ubuntu> good bye i don't undertand nothing
[09:56] <cmpalmer> ubotu: tell ubuntu about es
[09:56] <_u_> hmm...
[09:56] <_u_> lol
[09:56] <oskude> slabby, ctrl+alt+f1
[09:56] <gnomefreak> slabby: are you in ubuntu right now?
[09:56] <Sturm---> oskude: after its configured, i try startx?
[09:56] <ubuntu> yes
[09:56] <gnomefreak> oskude: if hes in tty it wont work
[09:56] <_u_> ok.. thought it was bad to have an ati ^^ @ soundray
[09:56] <slabby> i am just after the error
[09:57] <stoned> offtoptic:  usual suspects is a brilliant fscking movie
[09:57] <slabby> and it goes to a screen asking for login
[09:57] <saniX> http://mohammad.islamway.com/
[09:57] <_u_> uhm @ gnomefreak
[09:57] <oskude> Sturm---, try "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart" or alt+backspace in gmd
[09:57] <gnomefreak> slabby: than type in your login info
[09:57] <slabby> ok
[09:57] <linuxboyfriend> when i give command "sudo apt-get install some_package", i does not give me any option like [Y/N]  but it automatically starts download, why? and how can I fix this?
[09:57] <_jason> stoned: #ubuntu-offtopic and yeah i agree
[09:57] <slabby> then type that code?
[09:57] <slabby> sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[09:57] <oskude> gnomefreak, works here...
[09:57] <cmpalmer> slabby: correct
[09:58] <slabby> ok, will try it now
[09:58] <slabby> brb
[09:58] <gnomefreak> slabby: after you have a prompt that looks like gnomefreak@dapperdrake$
[09:58] <_jason> linuxboyfriend: it asks if it needs to do other things like add and remove packages you didn't mention
[09:58] <Sturm---> hmmok, same thing as before, but i didn'T really change any settings
[09:58] <Sturm---> didN't know what to change everything seemed alright
[09:58] <gnomefreak> oskude: it doesnt work here without graphics
[09:58] <linuxboyfriend> _jason: can i add any option so it should ask me?
[09:58] <soundray> _u_, I've had the least trouble with an older ATI Radeon, quite some trouble with a mobile Geforce, and the ATI X200 was a right pain in the neck.
[09:58] <ubuntu> no me entero de nada
[09:58] <ubuntu> jaja
[09:59] <gnomefreak> !es
[09:59] <ubotu> Hispanohablantes: Por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[09:59] <oskude> gnomefreak, hmm, it used to work with alt before... well, then only ctrl+f1
[09:59] <_u_> well i have got here a mobile radeon x700 soundray
[09:59] <_jason> linuxboyfriend: check 'man apt-get' but I don't know of one
[09:59] <cmpalmer> ubuntu: vea lo que dijo ubotu
[09:59] <slabby> then it tells me "do you want to autoconfigure video hardware"
[09:59] <jessy_> someone know how to change the port use by pureftpd ???
[09:59] <slabby> yes?
[09:59] <_u_> and no idea why the changes in the manual screw up :/
[09:59] <cmpalmer> slabby: try that
[09:59] <oskude> Sturm---, then try with vesa driver and 1024x768 reslotuin and under 70herz for monitor, or 60hz for lcd...
[10:00] <gnomefreak> slabby: do you know any of the info of your card and moniter?
[10:00] <slabby> select yes?
[10:00] <ubuntu> ok tahk
[10:00] <Sturm---> k
[10:00] <slabby> card is X800
[10:00] <slabby> monitor is samsung
[10:00] <zF> Backspace +shift restarts X - this is EXTREMELY annoying, how can I remove this binding?
[10:00] <gnomefreak> slabby: its going to ask you what budid is for that card
[10:00] <gnomefreak> busid*
[10:00] <slabby> gnomefreak: and what is it? or where can i find it?
[10:00] <soundray> linuxboyfriend: you tell it to install a package, and it does it. Why should it ask?
[10:00] <^Ocean^> is there anyway to test if there is input comeing in from my Microphone plug on my sound card ?
[10:01] <gnomefreak> slabby: lspci should give you that info
[10:01] <Sturm---> maaaaaaaaaagic
[10:01] <cmpalmer> gnomefreak: he won't need that if it's x86
[10:01] <Sturm---> it worked!
[10:01] <gnomefreak> slabby: yes click yes if something is wrong change it
[10:01] <cmpalmer> gnomefreak: he shouldn't need it, anyway
[10:01] <slabby> it is 64
[10:01] <zF> Backspace +shift restarts X - this is EXTREMELY annoying, how can I remove this binding?
[10:01] <slabby> 64bit
[10:01] <Sturm---> oskude: THANKS a lot :)
[10:01] <gnomefreak> cmpalmer: i just did it and i needed it :(
[10:01] <oskude> Sturm---, now you could try different dirvers, for ati, "ati" or "radeon"
[10:01] <cmpalmer> gnomefreak: oh. :(
[10:01] <slabby> cmpalmer: it is 64bit still ok?
[10:01] <Sturm---> well its a gforce
[10:01] <oskude> Sturm---, until you find what works and what not, mostly its the monirot refresh rates
[10:02] <gnomefreak> it was seeing my ati onboard card so i had to pull the lil battery out to reset bios :(
[10:02] <soundray> zF: how did you set this binding?
[10:02] <slabby> brb will try selecting yes
[10:02] <oskude> Sturm---, dunno how the xorg nvidia drivers is called
[10:02] <santiago> I testing x-chat!
[10:02] <Sturm---> k
[10:02] <zF> soundray, my friend who updated to dapper has the same problem... It'd incredibly annoying, it's now set in preferences --> key bindings
[10:03] <soundray> santiago: test worked.
[10:03] <gnomefreak> oskude: nvidia-settings
[10:03] <gnomefreak> nvidia-glx
[10:03] <soundray> zF: strange, not here...
[10:03] <oskude> Sturm---, but there are howtos howto install nvidia binary drivers at ubuntu wiki
[10:03] <Sturm---> ya know what's weird anyway, i think i have two boot loaders installed now, but i only see the one i installed with unbuntu when i have a windows startup disk in the cd rom!
[10:03] <Sturm---> if not, i see the other loader
[10:03] <zF> soundray, are you using Dapper?
[10:03] <oskude> gnomefreak, i meant the names used in xorg.conf
[10:03] <zF> well, we both have Dell 700m laptops.
[10:03] <gnomefreak> Sturm---: are you using dapper or breezy?
[10:03] <gnomefreak> ahhhhh
[10:03] <soundray> zF yes
[10:04] <zF> soundray, any idea how to unbind? This is honestly driving me to NOT use ubuntu because I type it all the time with any text
[10:04] <slabby> guys, it says my card is a X850, R(480) but it is a X800
[10:04] <Sturm---> breezy
[10:04] <Linux_Kong> can someone do me a favour and try and ssh to kong.homelinux.net, dont worry its my box, just testing i have dyndns and ptfwing in my adsl router setup correctly
[10:04] <oskude> slabby, who sais that ? your gfx box ?
[10:04] <gnomefreak> slabby: make sure and fix it if you need too
[10:04] <soundray> zF: can you not unset it in Prefs-Keyboard Shortcuts?
[10:05] <zF> soundray, hmmm, maybe I can try to rebind it as something else then just remove that binding
[10:05] <slabby> how do i fix it? it is deff a x800 but the x server autoconfig says it is X850
[10:05] <oskude> slabby, and what does lspci say ?
[10:05] <gnomefreak> take out the 50 and put 00
[10:05] <sethk> slabby, maybe you don't care.  let it do what it thinks is correct, and see if it works properly
[10:06] <gnomefreak> sethk: i think thats why he has no gui
[10:06] <slabby> what is lspci?
[10:06] <soundray> zF: at least that should tell you the name of the gnome function that restarts X.
[10:06] <gnomefreak> something isnt right
[10:06] <dang`r`us> hi
[10:06] <dang`r`us> (wow, huge channel)
[10:06] <gnomefreak> slabby: type in terminal lspci
[10:06] <oskude> slabby, a command so show what devices are in pci bus present
[10:06] <blekos> hi guys
[10:06] <blekos> anybody installed the new open office?
[10:07] <slabby> ok so i will just agree and see if it works
[10:07] <blekos> got any probs?
[10:07] <soundray> zF: otherwise, I'd suggest looking through the options in gconf-editor
[10:07] <slabby> leave it as X850?
[10:07] <gnomefreak> blekos: the new one in dapper or 2.0 in general?
[10:07] <dang`r`us> I'm running dapper flight 4 - what's the recommended way to change the display driver? (I've downloaded the fglrx driver, but do I just change the line in xorg.conf or is there another way?)
[10:07] <zF> soundray, works :)
[10:07] <slabby> or just change the name?
[10:07] <soundray> blekos: yes, it doesn't run...
[10:07] <zF> I just set it tom y home folder
[10:07] <oskude> blekos, had to install my printer manually :)
[10:07] <blekos> the new in dd
[10:07] <gnomefreak> blekos: im doing it now ill let you know
[10:07] <soundray> zF: well done. Still strange, though.
[10:07] <oskude> i got a fresh breezy install an ooo2 works
[10:07] <gnomefreak> blekos: it was held back for a reason
[10:07] <blekos> i had dd 2 weeks now, but 2day there was a new update...
[10:07] <santiago> quien sabe algo de verizon dsl with ubuntu?
[10:08] <slide> ok wtf, some gay app is using up 100% of my cpu and my load average is 23.62, 16.97, 8.24 I cant seem to get a console or anything but all my other apps still running are fine. Anyone know of a cmd I can execute through xchats /exec to kill the greedy app?
[10:08] <Kr4t05> !doom
[10:08] <ubotu> somebody said doom was https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Doom3
[10:08] <gnomefreak> blekos: the update was uploaded today
[10:08] <cmpalmer> ubotu: tell santiago about es
[10:08] <blekos> icons seem 2 appear or disappear when u pass the pointer over them
[10:08] <sethk> slabby, sure, try it as x850, it will probably be fine
[10:08] <gnomefreak> blekos: in the gnome menu?
[10:08] <blekos> icons like fonts, paragraph etc
[10:08] <Stormx2> Can someone gimme a hand? I need to run a command in gnome terminal on boot. How? :(
[10:08] <gnomefreak> oh everything
[10:08] <blekos> eg, i f u open a doc
[10:09] <dang`r`us> Stormx2, system->preferences->sessions ->startup programs
[10:09] <sethk> Stormx2, that doesn't make sense, you can't run gnome-terminal before X is up.  but probably you are confused and your requirement has nothing to do with gnome-terminal
[10:09] <dang`r`us> well, that's "on login" technically speaking ... but you won't get a gnome terminal before login anyway
[10:09] <santiago> estoy probando kubuntu y quiero saver mas de dsl
[10:09] <dang`r`us> (I agree with sethk)
[10:10] <avu> dang`r`us, I think just changing the line in your xorg.conf is the way to go
[10:10] <gnomefreak> blekos: mine works fine
[10:10] <Stormx2> sethk: GNOME startup.
[10:10] <dang`r`us> avu, ok :D
[10:10] <dang`r`us> Stormx2, then like I described
[10:10] <sethk> Stormx2, what about gnome startup?
[10:10] <Stormx2> dang`r`us: I know. But I don't know the command for running a specific command in gnome-terminal
[10:10] <blekos> hmm
[10:11] <Stormx2> sethk: When my desktop loads, X is running.
[10:11] <santiago> no body can contact wiki me in spanish!
[10:11] <dang`r`us> Stormx2, gnome-terminal should have a cmdline switch for this
[10:11] <sethk> Stormx2, and?
[10:11] <dang`r`us> Stormx2, consult the manpage
[10:11] <Stormx2> dang`r`us: I did x.x
[10:11] <dang`r`us> Stormx2, it's right there, the first option
[10:12] <dang`r`us> -e, --command=STRING
[10:12] <dang`r`us> or -x, --execute
[10:12] <Stormx2> dang`r`us: I tried that though. The gnome-terminal window comes up, and goes away straight away
[10:12] <dang`r`us> Stormx2, that means your command has finished, probably
[10:12] <dang`r`us> Stormx2, append a "; read foo" to your command
[10:13] <blekos> could u tell me the components that r installed from synaptic for oo?
[10:13] <dang`r`us> then it will wait for a press of return
[10:13] <blekos> mine has oo.org and oo.org-base
[10:13] <soundray> blekos: you can check that yourself: apt-cache depends openoffice.org
[10:13] <blekos> thnx
[10:13] <Stormx2> dang`r`us: It hasn't though. When I run it in an already open window, the command keeps going.
[10:13] <soundray> blekos: sorry: apt-cache depends openoffice.org2
[10:14] <blekos> apt-cache depends openoffice.org2
[10:14] <dang`r`us> Stormx2, do the read foo thing, maybe your program is not being found or something.
[10:14] <mike-e> can ubuntu write to ufs without problems?
[10:14] <Stormx2> dang`r`us: I'll give it a go
[10:14] <nadia007> Wondering if anyone knows of a GUI backup program for ubuntu?
[10:14] <gnomefreak> Stormx2: you might want to use a wait type string in your source (if you wrote the program)
[10:15] <soundray> nadia007: sbackup
[10:15] <gnomefreak> nadia007: there are a few of them search in synaptic for backup
[10:15] <nadia007> sounray, thx... I'll take a look
[10:15] <WebLOCH> hey im looking for someone to help me with nvidia/xserve/monitor problems, ideally someone with a geforce 6000 series
[10:15] <Stormx2> dang`r`us: I'm using this line: gnome-terminal -e=cd\ /media/Win98/moojava/classes;\ java\ runTWOServer;
[10:15] <nadia007> gnomefreak, I've been looking... I just didn't know which were gui... thx
[10:16] <slabby> im back: lspci gives me 2 video devices; VGA ATI adapter etc (is 0000:01:00.0) and Display controller ATI etc (is 0000:01:00.1) which one do i enter for xserver config when it asks for it
[10:16] <gnomefreak> nadia007: normally the discription would tell you but ive never searched for a backup app
[10:16] <santiago> ok lets go and fine some body bilingue can some body with ubuntu contact me here?
[10:16] <gnomefreak> slabby: you have an onboard video card
[10:16] <dang`r`us> Stormx2, well, I don't know about your runTWOServer ... do the read foo thing ;)  (and escape spaces as needed or put the whole thing in quotes)
[10:16] <soundray> nadia007: sbackup is really nice for basic desktop backup tasks.
[10:16] <Stormx2> gnomefreak: I *know* this program doesn't suddenly finish
[10:16] <slabby> no just ATI X800
[10:16] <NRG88> hitech, i use kubuntu, but want to make ubuntu from it
[10:17] <Stormx2> so
[10:17] <slabby> gnomefreak: i dont have onboard just my X800
[10:17] <gnomefreak> slabby: if i had to guess the second one
[10:17] <Stormx2> gnome-terminal -e=cd\ /media/Win98/moojava/classes;\ java\ runTWOServer;\ read\ foo;
[10:17] <dang`r`us> exactly
[10:17] <fletch33> o.k. i have an unusual question for everyone. i have a .jpg with a lot of typed printing on it. i do not want to retype all the information because it is a lot and i stink at typing. so is it possible to use something in ubu to capture the text off of a .jpg?
[10:17] <NRG88> i removed kubuntu-artwork-usplash
[10:17] <pcarnie> Please can anybody help!!! I have an issue with Ubuntu 5.04
[10:17] <dang`r`us> (the space after the semicolon is not neccessary btw)
[10:17] <gnomefreak> !helpme
[10:17] <ubotu> If you don't actually ask a question, we can not actually help you.
[10:17] <NRG88> but the kubuntu splash screen remains
[10:17] <Kanalal> hi, does anyone know if its possible to install an i386 app on an amd64 architecture?
[10:17] <NRG88> how can i change it to ubuntu splash screen?
[10:18] <slabby> gnome : and that is in hexedecimal but xserver want is in decimal what do i enter for xserver?
[10:18] <WebLOCH> Anyone want to babysit me through some nvidia/xorg config ?
[10:18] <Stormx2> bash:  java runTWOServer: command not found
[10:18] <Stormx2> bash: read foo: command not found
[10:18] <soundray> Kanalal: only if you create a 32-bit chroot environment. Ubotu knows more...
[10:18] <soundray> !chroot
[10:18] <ubotu> hmm... chroot is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebootstrapChroot and http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=24575

[10:20] <soundray> fletch33: you want an OCR program. There is gocr and a couple of others.
[10:20] <lucasvo_> anybody using opengroupware.org? how did you install it?
[10:21] <lucasvo_> did you compile sope?
[10:21] <slabby> kr4t05: si

[10:21] <slabby> kr4t05: #ubuntu-es por espangol
[10:21] <fletch33> soundray, an ocr program will capture the text off of a .jpg?
[10:21] <santiago> kr4to5 :)
[10:21] <soundray> fletch33: OCR=optical character recognition.

[10:21] <soundray> fletch33: depends on the program. Gocr will require you to convert jpg to pnm, but that's easy.
[10:21] <soundray> fletch33: yes.

[10:27] <rsyncx> gnomefreak, i just enabled all other repositories, like mutliverse. i don't know what that entails
[10:27] <Kr4t05> santiago: if ubuntu detects your network settings, everything should be fine.
[10:27] <gnomefreak> rsyncx: i dont think you can get that version in breezy i dont even think its been backported yet if at all
[10:27] <rsyncx> but i still don't see 1.8.4 or don't know how to downgrade
[10:27] <rsyncx> gnomefreak, to 1.8.2
[10:27] <slabby> is there another channel where someone may be able to help me with hex to decimal for xserver config?
[10:27] <rsyncx> gnomefreak, cuz rails needs 1.8.2 :)
[10:27] <fletch33> soundray,  k
[10:27] <gnomefreak> rsyncx: check in synaptic it should be in there if you can get it
[10:28] <soundray> fletch33: how to move forward, synaptic or apt?
[10:28] <cs02rm0> anyone know why when i SSH from 192.168.0.48 to 192.168.0.49 it seems to work, yet when i look around the filesystem... i'm actually still on the same box, *.48??

[10:29] <fletch33> soundray,  still no gorc
[10:29] <soundray> fletch33: that sounds grand. I'll open mine tomorrow ;)
[10:29] <gnomefreak> rsyncx: go to ruby in synaptic and choose reinstall see if that helps (for your version of ruby that you want)
[10:29] <fletch33> soundray, ?
[10:29] <slabby> can anyone even hear me?
[10:29] <slabby> can anyone read this?
[10:29] <fletch33> soundray, did i miss something
[10:29] <soundray> fletch33: try gocr not gorc
[10:29] <gnomefreak> slabby: if people know they will answer
[10:29] <Kr4t05> santiago: You may want to try #ubuntu-es I'm having trouble understanding.
[10:30] <slabby> gnome: where else can i ask?
[10:30] <soundray> fletch33: you said "I opened up the universe now" -- almost poetic.
[10:30] <slabby> gnome: is there another channel where i may get help?
[10:30] <gnomefreak> slabby: did you see if there was a #ati?
[10:30] <fletch33> soundray,  thanks hehehe i got gocr now
[10:30] <soundray> slabby: nobody knows right now, try again in an hour, different people will have joined.
[10:30] <slabby> gnome: in lspce?
[10:30] <slabby> gnome: lspci*
[10:30] <gnomefreak> slabby: no in irc
[10:31] <rsyncx> gnomefreak, nope :(
[10:31] <soundray> fletch33: Got gocr? Great. Now get netpbm

[10:31] <gnomefreak> rsyncx: did you do a ruby update after adding any of the repos?
[10:31] <adrian_h> Hi, all. I'm porting an init script from Fedora to Ubuntu. The init script sources "/etc/rc.d/init.d/functions", which doesn't exist on Ubuntu. What's the Ubuntu equivalent?
[10:31] <fletch33> soundray,  i already had that 1
[10:31] <cs02rm0> saniX: no luck, still does it.
[10:31] <Kr4t05> santiago: de nada
[10:32] <rsyncx> gnomefreak, could it be installed version of ruby "package" mismatches with interpreter language version?
[10:32] <soundray> fletch33: are you familiar with the command line?
[10:32] <gnomefreak> rsyncx: it could be a list of things but yes that could be it
[10:32] <fletch33> soundray,  somewhat ;)
[10:32] <rsyncx> gnomefreak, i installed it after all repository stuff was solidified , i.e. did not change after after updating
[10:32] <rsyncx> gnomefreak, didnot change repository list
[10:32] <soundray> fletch33: open a terminal and cd to the directory where your jpeg file lives.
[10:33] <gnomefreak> rsyncx: try man dpkg or man apt  i remember seeing somethng about degressing packages
[10:33] <varun_> ssup machas
[10:33] <fletch33> soundray,  what is the command to cd to the desktop
[10:33] <AB3I> afternoon all. I have a bit of a dilema, and google has thus far failed to produce
[10:33] <gnomefreak> rsyncx: what i was trying to get at was with backports enabled it might have updated your version of ruby
[10:33] <soundray> fletch33: cd $HOME/Desktop
[10:34] <Kr4t05> !quake4bork
[10:34] <ubotu> I don't know, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, Kr4t05
[10:34] <AB3I> I've got this spiffy new 17" wide screen monitor, native resolution 1280x768, except ubuntu doesn't offer that resolution, so the screen looks like crap
[10:34] <Kr4t05> FFS

[10:34] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell AB3I about fixres

[10:34] <ubotu> Please read http://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[10:34] <AB3I> I edited /etc/X11/xorg.conf, and it didn't help
[10:34] <soundray> fletch33: $HOME is a variable for /home/fletch33 or whatever your username is.
[10:34] <varun_> anyone WOWing on wine ?
[10:34] <fletch33> soundray,  k
[10:34] <AB3I> thanks gnome
[10:34] <scott> hi...anybody around to offer some wlan help?
[10:35] <Kr4t05> varun_: not WoW, but I'm trying to get Warcraft 3 to work.
[10:35] <suidik> scott: just ask
[10:35] <soundray> fletch33: now type 'jpegtopnm file.jpg >file.pnm' (replacing file.jpg with the actual filename)
[10:35] <lampshade> I've seen people run WoW though I don't
[10:35] <gnomefreak> !wine
[10:35] <varun_> kewl Kr4t05, still need to cfg ze wine
[10:36] <soundray> fletch33: if it works, you should see no output, but a new file on your desktop.
[10:36] <scott> short story: brand new dell inspiron 600m with dell 1370 wireless card...
[10:36] <fletch33> soundray,  k done
[10:36] <erez> Kr4t05: i understood that you need a crack to do it from ubuntu, didn't try it yet but i should..
[10:36] <scott> ...everything works great, except the wireless card.
[10:36] <lampshade> Does pretty well everyone here use Xchat for IRC?  I'm kinda mad that there is no off the bat easy way to auto identify etc with Xchat other than Perl scripts and what not,
[10:36] <echilon> I've just installed ununtu 5.10, but when I try to do 'make' with a package, I get 'command not flound'
[10:36] <scott> i've searched high and low, but can't seem to solve the problem.
[10:36] <fletch33> soundray,  got the .pnm on desktop now
[10:36] <soundray> fletch33: what name did you give the pnm file?
[10:36] <varun_> IS ROBOTGEEK IN HERE ?
[10:37] <fletch33> soundray,  MGIF
[10:37] <gnomefreak> echilon: sudo apt-get install build-essential
[10:37] <iBalo> lampshade: just give good'ol chatzilla a try
[10:37] <gnomefreak> varun_: not speaking hes not please turn your caps lock key off

[10:37] <echilon> thanks
[10:37] <scott> seems like other users have hte same problem, but nobody has a solution
[10:37] <Kr4t05> crap
[10:37] <lampshade> iBalo, lol, I didn't even think of that, but have used it in the past, does it auto identify nicks and such>
[10:37] <Kr4t05> ubotu doesn't do math, does he?
[10:37] <ubotu> Huh? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, Kr4t05
[10:38] <varun_> gnomefreak, gee sry dint mean to break protocol
[10:38] <fletch33> soundray,  np i appreciate the help it will save me a lot of typing now and in the future
[10:38] <iBalo> you can have handy shortcuts ans autocompletions
[10:38] <suidik> scott: I thought there is ipw2200 :-(
[10:38] <gnomefreak> echilon: if you have problems with ubuntu ask the channel if not ther eis an offtopic room
[10:38] <soundray> fletch33: wait, you may yet be disappointed by the results. OCR is tricky business.
[10:38] <fletch33> soundray,  k
[10:38] <gnomefreak> nnot echilon
[10:38] <scott> what is ipw220?
[10:38] <varun_> could someone offer me a good alternative to visual source safe for breezy /
[10:38] <lampshade> there are two wireless dell uses a lot ipw and the 1370, as far as I can tell
[10:38] <interferon> how do i get initng to pull IP addresses on boot?
[10:39] <redlounge> hi. importing from my usb digicam with gthumb only works as root. with user rights i get an error saying '... could not reserve interface 0...'- any idea what to do?
[10:39] <lampshade> mine for example, is the ipw2200
[10:39] <lampshade> on my 6000
[10:39] <erez> lampshade: i use irssi, it's a text based client on the terminal
[10:39] <fletch33> soundray,  well if it doesnt work i will have to do it the long way
[10:39] <soundray> fletch33: now type 'gocr MGIF >text.txt'
[10:39] <scott> ipw2200 is the intel pro wireless, right?
[10:39] <soundray> fletch33: check the result with gedit text.txt
[10:40] <scott> how would i conclusively determine which i have?
[10:40] <lampshade> scott, yes
[10:40] <fletch33> soundray,   ERROR pnm.c L118: opening file MGIF
[10:40] <suidik> scott: ipw2200 is a solution for wireless cards under linux - notebook with centrino usually has it..
[10:40] <soundray> fletch33: is MGIF really what you called the pnm file?
[10:40] <crouchingMonkey2> how big should the swap be if you have 512 mb of ram ?
[10:40] <fletch33> soundray,  that is what i renamed it to
[10:40] <rsyncx> oh man it doesn't make sense
[10:40] <scott> i don't have centrino...pentium M
[10:40] <fletch33> soundray,  it is MGIF.pnm
[10:41] <lampshade> scott, ipw2200.sourceforge.net is a project somewhat sponsored by intel that helps build the drivers.  Now they are pretty well included in a lot of distros, ubuntu nailed my wireless with no setup, I just had to setup the WPA encryption which didn't prove too hard at all either.
[10:41] <soundray> fletch33: ahh, okay. Type 'gocr MGIF.pnm >text.txt' then
[10:41] <hermes> i thinks 512 would be enough
[10:41] <scott> okay, taking a look at that now...
[10:41] <WebLOCH> hey guys, my graphics card should have 128mb of memory or 256mb with turbocache, however the systems reporting 64mb :( any takers?
[10:41] <lampshade> scott, not the processor, you are thinking celeron vs pentium, but that's not what we are talking about
[10:41] <endeavormac> does ubuntu have something similar to apt-get in debian?
[10:41] <WebLOCH> endeavormac, yes
[10:41] <soundray> fletch33: truncating the filename extensions is a bad Microsoft habit ;)
[10:41] <suidik> scott: lspci | grep 'Network controller'
[10:41] <lampshade> endeavormac, yes, very yes
[10:41] <WebLOCH> endeavormac, it has apt-get
[10:42] <endeavormac> heh ok, thanks :)
[10:42] <fletch33> soundray,   i think that worked 1 sec
[10:42] <Kr4t05> How do I restart GDM?
[10:42] <WebLOCH> kr4t05 you can do a shallow restart with CTRL ALT BACKSPACE
[10:42] <scott> 0000:02:03.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation: Unknown device 4318 (rev 02)
[10:42] <Kr4t05> Doesn't work.
[10:42] <soundray> Kr4t05: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[10:43] <endeavormac> I don't have Ubuntu, but I'm trying to help a friend get his Ubuntu install configured. Is there a place I can see a list of the packages readily available for Ubuntu through apt-get?
[10:43] <Kr4t05> Thanks
[10:43] <scott> I'm pretty sure that's the Dell 1370, not the ipw2200
[10:43] <soundray> Kr4t05: that'll kill itself though, if you call it from X.
[10:43] <fletch33> soundray,  :( it just looks like a bunch of nonsense
[10:43] <WebLOCH> soundray, i imagine you told him too late
[10:43] <fletch33> soundray,  in the gedit
[10:43] <lampshade> endeavormac, ummm  easier to apt-cache search program you want  or I think online there are
[10:43] <suidik> scott: can you tell me your lspci network controller line ?
[10:44] <lampshade> endeavormac, so like apt-cache search mozilla firefox and things like that will get you the exact names of programs to then apt-get install
[10:44] <scott> yep, hang on...
[10:44] <soundray> fletch33: you can try and tweak the image quality to get better results.
[10:44] <jaycee_N770> Evenin' all
[10:44] <endeavormac> ok i'll let him know
[10:44] <soundray> fletch33: first of all, how do you acquire those jpegs?
[10:45] <jaycee_N770> Could I ask a brief ubuntu install question?  Is this a suitable place to ask?
[10:45] <scott> here you go: 0000:02:03.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation: Unknown device 4318 (rev 02)
[10:45] <soundray> WebLOCH: I trust your imagination there...
[10:45] <fletch33> soundray,  it is from a client and it is very good quality at least as a jpg it was
[10:45] <lampshade> jaycee_N770, just ask any question, if someone can answer they will :-)  don't ask to ask
[10:45] <soundray> fletch33: Scan? Photo? Screenshot?
[10:45] <WebLOCH> soundray, well you did what you could, you were just sowing the seeds
[10:45] <gnomefreak> night all
[10:45] <suidik> scott: hmm
[10:45] <fletch33> soundray,  it was a 30x40 poster and it was emailed to me
[10:46] <soundray> fletch33: what's the contrast like between the text and the background?
[10:46] <scott> suidik, so, i'm using ndiswrapper to make the driver for this card work...
[10:46] <fletch33> soundray,  the 1 pic is 3.9 mb
[10:46] <scott> ...and when i do, this error shows up:
[10:46] <endeavormac> alright guys, thans
[10:46] <endeavormac> thanks
[10:46] <fletch33> soundray,  the text is layed over a pic
[10:46] <scott> [4296070.191000]  ndiswrapper (import:238): unknown symbol: ntoskrnl.exe:strrchr
[10:46] <fletch33> soundray,  i gues that is the problem
[10:47] <jaycee_N770> After installation and reboot, and halfway thru the initial setup process, the apt process sits at 99% CPU.
[10:47] <scott> what do you think that means...ntoskrnl.exe seems odd to me in a linux system
[10:47] <soundray> fletch33: is it black text?
[10:47] <fletch33> soundray,  most of it some is red
[10:47] <cafuego> scott; yeah, well, so is a windows .sys driver eh?
[10:47] <scott> yes
[10:47] <fletch33> soundray,  i just really want the black anyway
[10:47] <suidik> scott: yes, it's your solution.. http://egofanatic.com/linuxonlaptops/Dell600m.php
[10:47] <soundray> fletch33: the background pic - is there a lot of black in there?
[10:48] <jaycee_N770> I think it's looking for the CD which I removed at the end of the install, but I've got a dvd and cd drive so it can't locate it.
[10:48] <fletch33> soundray,  not really
[10:48] <scott> cafuego: here's where i've posted all the details of this problem: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=786291#post786291
[10:48] <scott> suidik: checking out that url now.
[10:48] <soundray> fletch33: have you got gimp and/or imagemagick installed?
[10:48] <lampshade> scott, silly question, but is the wireless on?  Like my dell has a fn+f2 key that will kill it.  Is that on or off right now?
[10:48] <cafuego> scott: As near as I can tell the driver uses a non-standard fucntion that's not provided by the driver or compatibility layer. (strrchr). best bet is to find another driver which does not have the same problem.
[10:48] <tempest1> does anbody know how i can install gcj-4.0.2 on Ubuntu 5.10?
[10:48] <khafra> My firefox has a problem with crashing when I have plenty of memory left, just 10 or 20 tabs open
[10:48] <fletch33> soundray,  i might have where would it be
[10:48] <khafra> Is it a bad idea to upgrade to 1.5 ahead of Ubuntu?
[10:49] <kr0x> hello
[10:49] <fletch33> soundray,  i have gimp image editor
[10:49] <khafra> Since the official Ubuntu version is still 1.07 and all?
[10:49] <soundray> fletch33: run gimp and display from the commandline to find out.
[10:49] <cafuego> !tell khafra -about ff1.5
[10:49] <scott> suidik: that person hasn't got the wireless working yet.
[10:49] <fletch33> soundray,  i have it
[10:49] <scott> lampshade: good question...let me check that out.
[10:50] <[Leo] > hi!
[10:50] <scott> cafuego: okay, i'll see what i can find.  any ideas on how to easily/quickly find a substitute driver?
[10:50] <cafuego> scott: only the obvious; google.
[10:50] <soundray> fletch33: what you have to do essentially is to replace every non-black pixel in the image with white. Do you know how to do that?
[10:51] <Kr4t05> I'm having problems with Doom3. I've copied all of the .pk4 files over to */base but I recieve this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9643

[10:51] <fletch33> soundray,  no but this sounds like it might be more work than typing it out ha
[10:51] <kr0x> i'd like to try ubuntu ...what does it mean "standard request 5 PC CDs" on https://shipit.ubuntu.com ? are there 5 exact copies of install cd or install cd + packages or install cd + sources ?
[10:51] <soundray> fletch33: yes, if you do it pixel by pixel :)
[10:51] <cafuego> khafra: Works fine here
[10:51] <torstein_> How do I install additional keymaps ?
[10:52] <fletch33> soundray,  i am sure u have better thhings to do than walk me thru all of this

[10:52] <hermes> kr0x: 5 install cds and 5 live cds
[10:52] <fletch33> soundray,  thanks for your help i will type it out :(
[10:52] <lampshade> scott, I read your post in the forums and I don't see anything obviously wrong, that's why I was curious if that somehow got turned off or something so iwconfig just wasn't seeing the device or something liek that :-/
[10:52] <soundray> fletch33: but you've got good graphics tools there. I'd be glad to make that bit of graphics experience I have work for you.
[10:52] <fletch33> soundray,
[10:52] <fletch33> soundray, ok
[10:52] <scott> lampshade: i have the f2 button you're talking about, but it doesn't seem to be making anything change
[10:53] <bur[n] er> anyone know if it's possible to use the livecd to make a hard drive copy to another hard drive... similar to ghost?
[10:53] <soundray> fletch33: I'll be kind of making it up as we go a long, but you've got me going now. Open your original jpeg image with the Gimp.
[10:53] <khafra> cafuego: I've tried it twice.  Each time, when I type the final chroot -d, my root directory and pwd don't change at all
[10:53] <kr0x> is it possible to order install + live + sources ?
[10:53] <fletch33> soundray,  u want me to open the jpg or pnm in gimp
[10:53] <talvon> can anyone help with an installation problem?
[10:53] <root404> How do I list all of the processes in the background?
[10:53] <fletch33> soundray,  k done
[10:53] <cafuego> khafra: yes, that would be the point.
[10:53] <soundray> fletch33: the jpeg.
[10:53] <bur[n] er> kr0x: don't think so
[10:53] <kr0x> bur[n] er: why ?
[10:53] <fletch33> soundray,  k got it
[10:53] <tempest1> does anbody know how i can install gcj-4.0.2 on Ubuntu 5.10?
[10:53] <root404> Anyone?
[10:54] <torstein_> Do anyone know how I can install the iso-8859-15 keymap for ubuntu 5.10?
[10:54] <bur[n] er> i bet you could download an .iso of the sources to burn
[10:54] <engla> kr0x: shipit doesn't ship source cds for free, you have to pay the shipping
[10:54] <bur[n] er> or pay shipping
[10:54] <kr0x> ok
[10:54] <crouchingMonkey2> is there any particular order in which i should be installing codecs ?
[10:54] <khafra> cafuego: You broke my brain.  If the root directory doesn't change to the /chroot/, how will I know which synaptic I'm using, and whether I'm installing 32 or 64 bit programs, and where I'm installing them?
[10:54] <talvon> I have a wireless keyboard and mouse, and when I go to install I can press 'enter' to start it, but when I have to choose my language my keyboard or my PS2 keyboard don't respond
[10:54] <kr0x> thanks for information
[10:54] <soundray> fletch33: select the zoom tool and zoom in on a bit of text.
[10:54] <root404> Anyone?
[10:54] <root404> Help?
[10:54] <bur[n] er> crouchingMonkey2: nope
[10:54] <talvon> and that is common with lots of linux distros I have
[10:55] <talvon> which means I can't install them >_>
[10:55] <tempest1> root404, as root: "ps aux"
[10:55] <pcarnie> gnomefreak thanx for the help earlier with the resolution issue, however this did not help!!
[10:55] <soundray> fletch33: is the text antialiased?
[10:55] <tempest1> this channel is crazy
[10:55] <slabby> im back
[10:55] <fletch33> soundray,  antialiased?
[10:55] <pcarnie> The problem is that I can setup the xorg.conf file correctly however i cannot choose the reolution I want through gnome
[10:56] <soundray> tempest1: yes, tempestuous ;)
[10:56] <slabby> you still around gnome, or anyone else that may know
[10:56] <cafuego> khafra: You chroot to /chroot, so that becomes '/'.
[10:56] <soundray> fletch33: antialiasing = smoothing with color pixels
[10:56] <fletch33> soundray,  i zoomed in on some text
[10:56] <cafuego> khafra: The whole idea is that to the software, there _is_ no difference.
[10:56] <echilon> I'm trying to install the IEEE80211 drivers, but I keep getting an error about /lib/modules/2.6.12-10.386/build not being found
[10:56] <echilon> do I have to install the kernel source or something?
[10:56] <pcarnie> the problem seem to be that the refresh is detected as -25873 and because of this i have no options.  The resolution just sets to 1024x768
[10:56] <fletch33> soundray,  the text i selected has an all white background
[10:57] <khafra> cafuego: Ah, good.  It was you misunderstanding me, not me misunderstanding the point of chroot.
[10:57] <danc3> echilon: yes
[10:57] <fletch33> soundray,  very clean looking if that is what u mean
[10:57] <tempest1> pcarnie, do you have a subsection for display modes?
[10:57] <pcarnie> yes
[10:57] <khafra> cafuego: When I use it, it doesn't make /chroot into /.  I can still get to /.
[10:57] <fletch33> soundray,  sorry not familiar with that
[10:57] <pcarnie> I have had it running up untill recently
[10:57] <soundray> fletch33: antialiasing is a trick to make text look better than the resolution would normally allow. If you have grey pixels within curves, you've got antialiasing, and we have to adapt our strategy.
[10:57] <cafuego> khafra: Which / is it? The one inside the chroot or not?
[10:58] <tempest1> it could be that your driver is reporting that it's incompatible to run video for that hardware at any other resolutions
[10:58] <soundray> fletch33: but it sounds like you don't.
[10:58] <fletch33> soundray,  nope
[10:58] <tempest1> you've got the driver installed, and everything?
[10:58] <Kr4t05> Does anyone know anything about Doom 3? I've copied all of the .pk4 files over to */base but I recieve this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9643
[10:58] <slabby> the ati driver doesnt seem to be working, so is there generic driver i can use? ( i heard something about vesa but dont know what it is)
[10:58] <soundray> fletch33: okay, select the "select by color" tool (#5 in the main gimp window).
[10:59] <fletch33> soundray, k
[10:59] <Wammy|> gagh! im going to kill this.
[10:59] <slabby> the ati driver doesnt seem to be working, so is there generic driver i can use? ( i heard something about vesa but dont know what it is)
[10:59] <Wammy|> anyone care to help me out to see why the sound wont work?
[10:59] <soundray> fletch33: still in the main window, deselect Antialiasing and set the Threshold to 1. Leave other options as they are.
[10:59] <Kr4t05> ubotu tell slabby about vesa
[11:00] <preglow> ok, ive chosen the correct keyboard type in preferences but my regional keyboard keys still dont display what they should, anything im missing?
[11:00] <khafra> cafuego: When I try to start the chroot, it tells me it's executing a shell in the breezy (/chroot/) environment, but then I still see the /chroot/ directory, and I can still navigate to the true /
[11:00] <talvon> I have a wireless keyboard and mouse, and when I go to install I can press 'enter' to start it, but when I have to choose my language my keyboard or my PS2 keyboard don't respond
[11:00] <fletch33> soundray, k
[11:00] <soundray> fletch33: when you've done that, click on a black spot in the image. You should see marching ants outlining the text.
[11:00] <dennis_> how do i use sun instead GNU libgcj i terminal?
[11:01] <fletch33> soundray,  k
[11:01] <pcarnie> yes everything seems to be ok. It has worked ok before. do you want me to send my xorg.conf
[11:01] <soundray> fletch33: now all the text is selected. Invert the selection with Ctrl-i and remove all non-text with Ctrl-X
[11:01] <fletch33> soundray,  it did not select the red text though but no big deal
[11:01] <do_me_nice> how do i mount my ntfs partion?
[11:01] <me2win> !ntfs
[11:01] <ubotu> ntfs is, like, totally, the filesystem used in Windows 2000 and newer; to automatically mount your NTFS partition: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions
[11:01] <fletch33> soundray,  the text went white
[11:02] <soundray> fletch33: you will be able to adapt this strategy later to include red text as well, if necessary.
[11:02] <jimmothy86> hello, can anyone help me get sound working on my linux laptop
[11:02] <cyphase> http://www.therawfeed.com/2006/03/racy-microsoft-ad-spotted-in-wild.html
[11:02] <soundray> fletch33: okay, that shouldn't have happened.
[11:02] <lampshade> doesn't glxgears normally show framerates?  wth?  did they stop doing that?  Is there a flag I can use?
[11:02] <soundray> fletch33: maybe you inverted the selection twice...
[11:02] <fletch33> soundray,  the text went white with black outlining
[11:02] <Kr4t05> ubotu tell jimmothy86 about sound debugging
[11:02] <khafra> cafuego: Yeah, that was all I could figure out too.
[11:02] <Kr4t05> ubotu tell jimmothy86 about audiodebugging
[11:02] <oguzhan> how can i run "fgrlxconfig"?
[11:02] <soundray> fletch33: anyway, hit Ctrl-Z until you are back to where you were.
[11:03] <Kr4t05> ...
[11:03] <Kr4t05> !audio
[11:03] <ubotu> Wish I knew. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, Kr4t05
[11:03] <Kr4t05> ?!
[11:03] <Kr4t05> !sound
[11:03] <ubotu> hmm... sound is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingSoundProblems or http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoundProblemsHoary
[11:03] <fletch33> soundray,  ok back
[11:03] <Kr4t05> ubotu tell jimmothy86 about sound
[11:03] <soundray> fletch33: try Ctrl-X again. Only the text should stay black, everything else goes white.
[11:04] <fletch33> soundray,  no same as last time sorry
[11:04] <dragonbyte> anyone here using firestarter?
[11:04] <soundray> fletch33: Ctrl-Z to back up, Ctrl-i to invert selection, Ctrl X to remove non-text.
[11:04] <Gamen> I have a problem in with the Breezy LiveCD (also the Dapper LiveCD and Kubuntu's Breezy LiveCD). It locks up when trying to load the EVMS.
[11:05] <fletch33> soundray,  i cant get the ants back
[11:05] <saniX> dragonbyte, i think for iptables !
[11:05] <saniX> true 1
[11:05] <Kr4t05> Ugh
[11:05] <soundray> fletch33: never mind, close the image discarding changes, and reopen it via the File menu.
[11:06] <Kr4t05> It must be nice to have your question answered.
[11:06] <soundray> fletch33: (File-Open Recent)
[11:06] <simon__> Varfr kan jag inte kra varken synaptic eller apt-get komandon ?
[11:06] <fletch33> soundray,  following you r directions over again
[11:06] <pcarnie> Does anybody know anout any isses with an ATI Mobility 7500 and IBM L190p flatpanel
[11:07] <soundray> fletch33: maybe Ctrl-i doesn't work for you. Invert the selection via the Select menu instead.
[11:07] <Kr4t05> simon__: English? o.O
[11:07] <simon__> Kr4t05, yeah, sry, wrong chanel :)
[11:07] <fletch33> soundray,  worked that time
[11:07] <Wibble-> I have installed blackdown j2re, but I have to replace it with suns j2re.  Unfortunately, if I try to remove blackdowns version, it removes eclipse and openoffice and everything that uses java.  I want to replace the java "seamlessly" - i.e. without removing existing packages.  how can I do this?
[11:08] <fletch33> soundray, all i see is the black text no pic
[11:08] <soundray> fletch33: okay, now do a File-Save as and give it a name of t.pgm
[11:08] <fletch33> soundray,  can we get the red text back too
[11:08] <Kr4t05> #ubuntu-offtopic
[11:08] <Kr4t05> Ack
[11:08] <Kr4t05> sry
[11:08] <scott> i asked earlier, but maybe there are some new folks around...anyone have experience debugging issues with ndiswrapper, a dell 600m and the dell 1370 wireless card?
[11:09] <pianoboy3333> Help me with an ATI problem here: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=786623#post786623
[11:09] <cafuego> Wibble-: Just install the converted sun package over the top.
[11:09] <soundray> fletch33: I'll leave that as an exercise for you if that's okay. Select by color works on red, too.
[11:09] <dragonbyte> saniX: I just started playing with it and it seems slick, but it mentions being able to use it on a server over ssh
[11:09] <do_me_nice> why is it telling my my special device hda1 doesnt exist?
[11:09] <dragonbyte> saniX: and I'm not sure exactly how that is supposed to work
[11:09] <RollyW> is apache already included in ubuntu 5.10?
[11:09] <cafuego> Wibble-: That is, the result from 'make-jpkg'.
[11:09] <fletch33> soundray,  says that pgm can only handle gray scale
[11:09] <soundray> fletch33: actually, this could be interesting...
[11:09] <cafuego> RollyW: Included, but not installed.
[11:09] <fletch33> soundray,  convert to greyscale
[11:09] <Kr4t05> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9643 <--------HELP!?!
[11:10] <fletch33> soundray, ?
[11:10] <Wibble-> cafuego, so just follow http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-76702.html like normal eh?
[11:10] <RollyW> kk, what would the terminal command be to install it?
[11:10] <soundray> fletch33: yes, convert to grayscale.
[11:10] <fletch33> soundray,  data formatting raw or ascii
[11:10] <soundray> fletch33: raw
[11:10] <cafuego> Wibble-: wiki.ubuntu.com/Java
[11:10] <fletch33> soundray,  got it
[11:10] <Wibble-> even better! thanks
[11:10] <Wammy|> whats linux's stand on USB sound output?
[11:11] <cafuego> That contains peer-reviewed instructions, as opposed to random muttering from people who may or may not know what they're doing.
[11:11] <fletch33> soundray,  the text is kinda choopy though
[11:11] <scott> anyone have experience debugging issues with ndiswrapper, a dell 600m and the dell 1370 wireless card?
[11:11] <soundray> fletch33: now, back to the commandline, try 'gocr t.pgm >t.txt ; gedit t.txt'
[11:11] <fletch33> soundray,  sorry choppy
[11:11] <soundray> fletch33: let's see how gocr deals with it first.
[11:12] <fletch33> soundray,  what was the desktop cd again
[11:12] <ubuntu_> sweet
[11:12] <soundray> fletch33: cd ~/Desktop (or cd $HOME/Desktop)
[11:12] <ubuntu_> the only linux ive used so far that actually connects to internet
[11:12] <karim> hi ppl
[11:13] <karim> can anyone help me with setting up a Lexmark z11 printer under CUPS
[11:13] <fletch33> soundray,  k running
[11:13] <fletch33> soundray,  :( just a bunch of jibberish
[11:13] <Wammy|> anyone know of any USB sound devices?
[11:14] <pianoboy3333> Wammy|: no
[11:14] <RollyW> can someone tell me what the terminal command is to install apache?
[11:14] <soundray> fletch33: well, okay, the process will still need refinement.
[11:14] <dyrne> RollyW: sudo apt-get install apache
[11:14] <dyrne> RollyW: or apache2
[11:14] <scott> anyone have experience debugging issues with ndiswrapper, a dell 600m and the dell 1370 wireless card?
[11:15] <gr33npho3nix> scott: the dell wireless works w\ the linksys wpc11 drivers
[11:15] <gr33npho3nix> i think thats the correct model
[11:15] <fletch33> soundray,  well i am calling it a day but thank u very much for your help
[11:15] <soundray> fletch33: I showed you a way to segment your image into the text portion and the image portion (which we threw away).
[11:15] <gr33npho3nix> but also dell wireless is broadcom so native is only a hope and skip away
[11:16] <soundray> fletch33: you'd have to play around with selection options and such to get better results.
[11:16] <fletch33> soundray,  that was nice and will come in handy i learned something today and for that i thank u
[11:16] <Gamen> I have a problem: with the Breezy LiveCD (also the Dapper LiveCD and Kubuntu's Breezy LiveCD) when loading it locks up when trying to load the EVMS.
[11:16] <soundray> fletch33: it may also be necessary to reduce the image resolution.
[11:16] <soundray> fletch33: anyway, it was fun, sorry the results weren't so great.
[11:16] <fletch33> soundray,  np thanks for trying. catch u later
[11:16] <leobeta> where are the booting logs?
[11:17] <soundray> fletch33: cheers
[11:17] <Gamen> Booting logs?
[11:17] <gr33npho3nix> /var/log/syslog
[11:17] <gr33npho3nix> /var/log/kernel
[11:17] <gr33npho3nix> uhh
[11:17] <Gamen> AHh, not me, nevermind c.c
[11:17] <leobeta> thx
[11:17] <soundray> leobeta: also try dmesg
[11:17] <echilon> what's the default root password for ubuntu?
[11:17] <echilon> I can't sudo anything
[11:17] <gr33npho3nix> check if that service also has a specific log
[11:17] <soundray> echilon: it's disabled by default
[11:17] <dyrne> ubotu: tell echilon about root
[11:17] <gr33npho3nix> most of them do
[11:17] <RickX> some students at schoo installed 5.10 on a lab computer. I had to start gnome-settings-daemon manually. Anyone have any idea why it didn't start and how to have it start automatically?
[11:17] <soundray> echilon: for sudo, use your user password.
[11:17] <echilon> what is?
[11:18] <gr33npho3nix> echilon: are you a member of the admin group or in the sudoers file
[11:18] <echilon> I am, but it's being a bitch
[11:18] <leobeta> soundray: o0 Nica command!
[11:18] <echilon> I don't know
[11:18] <leobeta> Nice*
[11:18] <soundray> leobeta: see, I knew you'd like it ;)
[11:18] <leobeta> :)
[11:19] <leobeta> i figure it's configurable...
[11:19] <RollyW> hmm, "sudo synaptic install apache" isnt finding anything.. is it something other than synaptic?
[11:19] <leobeta> mm..no.. :(
[11:19] <leobeta> soundray: just the last boot, right ?
[11:19] <do_me_nice> how do i become root user
[11:19] <hermes> sudo
[11:19] <Rinuxl> sudo su -
[11:19] <gr33npho3nix> RollyW: sudo apt-get install apache
[11:19] <RollyW> whats the diff between apt-get, and synaptic?
[11:20] <soundray> leobeta: yes, and it's continuously updated (like when you hotplug a device).
[11:20] <Rinuxl> none
[11:20] <pianoboy3333> RollyW: synaptic is a GUI to apt-get
[11:20] <gr33npho3nix> apt-get is the command line
[11:20] <leobeta> o0, wow
[11:20] <pianoboy3333> yes
[11:20] <petros> hi
[11:20] <RollyW> oh, ok. cool

[11:20] <RollyW> thanks for the nob lessons :)
[11:20] <_jason> ubotu: tell RollyW about lamp
[11:20] <calamari> are there any emulators that can allow me to run a Linux program that was compiled for a different cpu?
[11:20] <petros> because it doesn't use the whole space in my shell
[11:21] <pianoboy3333> ubotu: tell me about lamp
[11:21] <petros> can i set the column width or something?
[11:21] <_jason> RollyW: apache2 is in the repos too unless you rpefer apache for some reason
[11:21] <duck> just recompile :X
[11:21] <Rinuxl> Linux Apache Mysql Linux
[11:21] <RollyW> ive actually never used either, was going to experiment
[11:21] <dyrne> calamari: prog not available in synaptic?
[11:21] <gr33npho3nix> _jason: apache and apache2 are in the repos
[11:21] <calamari> dyrne: doesn't matter either way, I can compile if needs be
[11:21] <_jason> gr33npho3nix: yep
[11:22] <echilon> it won't let me edit the sudoers file to add my self
[11:22] <echilon> I'm beginning to hate linux once again
[11:22] <gr33npho3nix> echilon: you have to be root to do it
[11:22] <crash15> J'ai un ami qui essaye d'installer ubuntu. Mais quand il essaye d'appliquer les changements sur la partion il a comme erreur : Aucun systme de fichier n'a t choisi comme racine pourtant il a complt
[11:22] <soundray> echilon: it's a security measure.
[11:22] <gr33npho3nix> and you must edit it w\ visudo
[11:22] <echilon> but I can't log in as root, the password is always wrong
[11:22] <dyrne> echilon: are you using the account you created during install?
[11:22] <echilon> yes
[11:22] <im_a_muslim> As Salaam e laikum (means: Peace b upon u) ........... http://www.submission.org/ ......... Your source for Islam (submission) on the internet.
[11:22] <_jason> echilon: would you want anyone to be able to add themselves as a sudoer?
[11:22] <crash15> Il me dit que dans le point de montage y'a systme de fichier de racine /
[11:22] <_jason> !fr
[11:22] <ubotu> fr is, like, totally, Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais
[11:22] <soundray> echilon: the root password is disabled.
[11:23] <duck> echilon: start hating yourself then
[11:23] <dyrne> echilon: if so you should already be alble to sudo
[11:23] <calamari> dyrne: oh, I understand what you were asking now
[11:23] <duck> try gentoo
[11:23] <crash15> Vos geulles les anglais c'est FR ICI
[11:23] <soundray> echilon: what are you trying to do?
[11:23] <gr33npho3nix> echilon: google knoppix change root password
[11:23] <echilon> I'm trying but I just get 'wrong password'
[11:23] <crash15> J'ai un ami qui essaye d'installer ubuntu. Mais quand il essaye d'appliquer les changements sur la partion il a comme erreur : Aucun systme de fichier n'a t choisi comme racine pourtant il a complt
[11:23] <gr33npho3nix> you can use knoppix to change your root password
[11:23] <soundray> crash15: wrong channel. #ubuntu-fr
[11:23] <echilon> I want to copy something to /lib/modules, but I need to be root to do it
[11:23] <calamari> dyrne: no, this is a program our instructor gave us to test with, but it was compiled on the school system ,which is rather inconvenient
[11:23] <hermes> sudo gedit ...
[11:23] <dyrne> echilon: try sudo -i does it let you into a root term?
[11:24] <duck> use the root pass instead of your own pass when su'ing :X
[11:24] <echilon> yes
[11:24] <duck> sudo is gay anyway
[11:24] <erUSUL> echilon, sudo cp something /lib/modules
[11:24] <leobeta> lol
[11:24] <calamari> dyrne: so I'd like to run it on my home system

[11:24] <dyrne> calamari: what app name?
[11:24] <_jason> ubotu: tell duck about gay
[11:24] <dyrne> calamari: or is it something he wrote?
[11:24] <calamari> dynre: "receiver" it's a networking class
[11:24] <calamari> yeah he wrote it
[11:25] <soundray> echilon: this shouldn't normally be necessary. Can you not install the module from a package?
[11:25] <calamari> we are writing the sender
[11:25] <echilon> soundray, it's the IEEE80211 driver set, I'm trying to get my IPW3945 working
[11:25] <Kr4t05> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9643
[11:26] <Kr4t05> That is my trouble with doom3
[11:26] <spine> can some one help me out with this little problem i have, i want my second monitor to blank out when i run fullscreen 3d apps, i have a radeon 9600XT with the latest propietary drivers
[11:26] <echilon> is there any obvious reason why cp would just omit directories when copying?
[11:26] <nitrosport_5> where do i get GNU Autoconf for ubuntu?
[11:26] <duck> cp -R ?
[11:26] <do_me_nice> damn read only file systems!
[11:27] <SGershon> echilon, you must use "cp -r" --> recursive
[11:27] <danc3> duck: sudo is "gay"?
[11:27] <Xappe> anyone knows how to connect to macosx vnc server with terminal server client? I get this error: http://www.delta.se/~jon/Screenshot-8.png
[11:27] <echilon> ah, finally :)
[11:27] <duck> I don't like it
[11:27] <predius__> is there a way to use the windows key with another key as a hotkey
[11:27] <danc3> duck: why not?
[11:27] <spine> just as good as su root
[11:27] <spine> lols
[11:27] <predius__> something like "windows + r"
[11:27] <soundray> echilon: have you considered ndiswrapper to get this working?
[11:27] <spine> can some one help me out with this little problem i have, i want my second monitor to blank out when i run fullscreen 3d apps, i have a radeon 9600XT with the latest propietary drivers
[11:28] <crouchingMonkey2> what line do i add to xorg.conf to get my monitor to display a 1200x1024 ?
[11:28] <duck> I don't see the point... why give a normal user root-ish access to everything with his own pass?
[11:28] <danc3> duck: you don't if you set up sudo correctly
[11:28] <nitrosport_5> where do i get GNU Autoconf for ubuntu?
[11:28] <spine> duck, its not suppossed to be the same password, tho everyone uses the same pass
[11:28] <iBalo> duck: for the same reasons and considerations OSX is doing it
[11:28] <pianoboy3333> I need help with a ATI OpenGL problem: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=786639#post786639
[11:29] <soundray> echilon: are you on breezy?
[11:29] <duck> and what reasons does osx have for it?
[11:29] <lampshade> sudo can have its downsides too.  Like now for example, I'm in the habit of just typing sudo in front of everything cause I usually have to do that anyway.  That's pretty well just as bad as running root.  So in the long run I personally cant decide which is better
[11:29] <duck> besides a retarded userbase
[11:29] <spine> duck, usefullness u cant seem to see
[11:29] <hermes> how do you change then the password of the sudo?
[11:29] <danc3> duck: are  you a n00b?
[11:29] <soundray> duck, unless you have a support question or want to help, I suggest you find another channel.
[11:29] <iBalo> duck: if you need a real root terminal you can still go sudo -s
[11:29] <lampshade> duck, OSX wins.  Linux wishes it could be OSX a lot of the time
[11:30] <spine> can some one help me out with this little problem i have, i want my second monitor to blank out when i run fullscreen 3d apps, i have a radeon 9600XT with the latest propietary drivers......PLZ!
[11:30] <duck>  spineduck, its not suppossed to be the same password, tho everyone uses the same pass << it was the same as my user account per default :S
[11:30] <danc3> duck: then set sudo up properly!!!
[11:30] <nitrosport_5> where do i get GNU Autoconf for ubuntu?
[11:30] <duck> nah
[11:30] <danc3> noob
[11:30] <spine> danc3, lmao
[11:30] <ryan> hey guys
[11:30] <duck> I don't use sudo
[11:30] <ryan> i have a question
[11:30] <danc3> because you're a noob
[11:30] <soundray> echilon, ping
[11:30] <do_me_nice> hey, i want to copy a file from my ntfs windows partion onto my linux partion... how would i do that... it tells me its read only... is there any way around this?
[11:30] <spine> thats fine dude su root 4 ever, leave us out
[11:30] <duck> so I'm a noob... explain it's frigging purpose
[11:31] <danc3> no
[11:31] <leobeta> whats the difference between sudo and su ?
[11:31] <danc3> read it yourself
[11:31] <leobeta> the real deal
[11:31] <erUSUL> nitrosport_5, apt-get install build-essentials
[11:31] <lampshade> do_me_nice, umm you mean it is write protected after you copied it or it doesn't copy?
[11:31] <leobeta> what is it?
[11:31] <dyrne> do_me_nice: sudo gedit /etc/fstab find the line for that partition and change the options column to umask=000,defaults
[11:31] <ryan> does anyone know of a program like limewire
[11:31] <do_me_nice> lampshade: it refuses to copy
[11:31] <dyrne> do_me_nice: then umount remount
[11:31] <lampshade> hmmm
[11:31] <spine> ryan, frostwaire
[11:31] <ryan> thats in the repositores
[11:31] <iBalo> OSX shows to Linux what can be done if efforts are centralized and egomania and neurosis is suppressed by economical considerations. More in #ubuntu-offtopi
[11:31] <erUSUL> do_me_nice, if it is read only you can copy it just with the gui
[11:31] <redguy> leobeta: su is "switch user", sudo is "superuser do"
[11:31] <spine> ryan, frostwire*
[11:31] <IdleOne> duck what is it you want to know ?
[11:31] <ryan> cool thanks
[11:31] <duck> nvm
[11:31] <duck> I'm reading it myself
[11:32] <ryan> i tried apollon but it wont work for some reason
[11:32] <leobeta> redguy: so sudo is safer
[11:32] <nitrosport_5> erUSUL i did that and it gave me this E: Couldn't find package build-essentials
[11:32] <do_me_nice> erUSUL: i can only acess it through the terminal as a root user
[11:32] <IdleOne> duck tell me Ill explain if I can ()
[11:32] <torstein_> exit
[11:32] <lampshade> ryan, I don't think it is in the repos though I just checked
[11:32] <erUSUL> nitrosport_5, apt-get install build-essential ?
[11:32] <nitrosport_5> yea
[11:32] <erUSUL> !tell do_me_nice about windowsdrives
[11:32] <spine> ryan, frostwire is good, its just a limewire clone, and its open source
[11:32] <duck> I want to know why I should use sudo instead of su
[11:32] <redguy> leobeta: you can allow certain users to run only specified commands with root priviledges with sudo.
[11:33] <nitrosport_5> there we go it isnt essentials it is essential
[11:33] <_jason> duck: have you read the wiki page?
[11:33] <redguy> duck: because using su allows you to have root's password disabled
[11:33] <leobeta> redguy: yea, but the user must know the root pass, or how ?
[11:33] <erUSUL> !tell duck about sudo
[11:33] <ryan> do i have to download it from another source
[11:33] <redguy> duck: darn usind sudo of course
[11:33] <duck> IdleOne wanted to explain :)
[11:33] <danc3> duck is a n00b, who doesn't want to learn, or try to learn
[11:33] <danc3> ignored
[11:33] <soundray> ryan, check out other choices first: apt-cache search peer file sharing
[11:33] <duck> lol
[11:33] <duck> danc3 is an elitist
[11:33] <duck> :D
[11:33] <nitrosport_5> ok after i did that erUSUL, when i am trying to build bzflag it says it cant locate the gnu autoconf
[11:34] <redguy> leobeta: no, the user identifies with his own password
[11:34] <IdleOne> duck:  sudo = super user do ( using sudo forces you tho think before you do something that could be potentialy harmful to the system.
[11:34] <duck> ok
[11:34] <dyrne> duck: everyone kinda rebells against sudo when first moving to a debian type distro but if you give it a few weeks i think youll prefer it
[11:34] <lampshade> dyrne, I agree
[11:34] <soundray> dyrne: seconded
[11:34] <spine> duck, OK... you should because sudo works just like SU without giving all of the root access, so you would have less of a chance to pull a noob-move
[11:34] <erUSUL> nitrosport_5, apt-get install autoconf
[11:34] <lampshade> I hated it, but I like it now, except for the one problem that I tend to overdo it now for all commands like cat  and shit
[11:34] <redguy> dyrne: is sudo default in debian? since when? etch?
[11:35] <duck> I'm not that noob
[11:35] <_jason> spine: actually anything you can do with su you can do with sudo
[11:35] <ryan> is that dcc program good?
[11:35] <leobeta> redguy: ajam, so as root i must allow somehow that user to use sudo for something specific, is that right?
[11:35] <soundray> lampshade: I get 'man shit: No manual entry for shit'
[11:35] <nitrosport_5> thanks erUSUL it is downloading it now!
[11:35] <IdleOne> duck:  even experienced user make mistakes sumtimes.
[11:35] <soundray> lampshade: cat is there, though ;)
[11:35] <erUSUL> leobeta, yes
[11:35] <erUSUL> nitrosport_5, np
[11:35] <leobeta> i see
[11:36] <ryan> how do i launch that these programs once i get them
[11:36] <spine> duck, granted
[11:36] <spine> can some one help me out with this little problem i have, i want my second monitor to blank out when i run fullscreen 3d apps, i have a radeon 9600XT with the latest propietary drivers......PLZ!
[11:36] <SGershon> Hi. Is there a reason for using a "2048 bit" keysize on GPG, instead of "1024"? Is that really necessary?
[11:36] <leobeta> erUSUL: now i'm intriged about how i set those rules as root for some iser
[11:36] <erUSUL> leobeta, yes see 'man sudoers'
[11:36] <leobeta> user*
[11:36] <leobeta> oh
[11:36] <leobeta> ok, thx
[11:36] <soundray> ryan: usually the name of the main binary is the same as the package name.
[11:36] <ryan> thanks
[11:36] <lampshade> soundray, hahah I once laughed out loud in class when I looked at my friends screen and I saw him typing in this order "man ls"  then "man less"  then "man man" then all of a sudden I see "man whore"  and I had to excuse myself from the room I laughed so hard
[11:36] <redguy> leobeta: kindof, you can allow a certain user to do anything also. you can even configure sudo, so that it won't ask for a password. sudo is much more flexible than su, period.
[11:36] <duck> anyway, thanks guys
[11:36] <duck> I appreciate you helping a 'noob' ;)
[11:36] <soundray> ryan: failing that, you will find info in /usr/share/doc/[packagename] 
[11:37] <redguy> leobeta: the sudo manpage is friendly, after the "language descrition" part
[11:37] <calamari> dyrne: found the app I was looking for: bintrans.. but it doesn't support amd64 so it looks like I'm out of luck.. hehe
[11:37] <SGershon> Specially when I se that gPG presents it now as 'default' size!
[11:37] <duck> mental note: don't bitch about sudo in here anymore :X
[11:37] <leobeta> thx u, ill get into that :)
[11:37] <SGershon> Hi. Is there a reason for using a "2048 bit" keysize on GPG, instead of "1024"? Is that really necessary?
[11:38] <lampshade> SGershon, my thoughts are, if you go for GPG security, why not go all out and do the max it can do
[11:38] <soundray> lampshade: can I pm you?
[11:38] <danc3> SGershon: no, it's not necessary
[11:38] <spine> duck, just configure it man, ul see its nice to not have to type ur password all the time
[11:38] <erUSUL> SGershon, i will choose a 4096 key size this days ;)
[11:38] <lampshade> soundray, yeah
[11:38] <GTX> !info net-snmp
[11:38] <SGershon> lampshade, it just sound too big.
[11:38] <GTX> Is there a package for net-snmp ?
[11:38] <GTX> I cant seem to find it
[11:38] <SGershon> erUSUL, LOL.
[11:38] <nitrosport_5> erUSUL after i did that it tells me i need automake 1.6 or higher. i did  apt-get install automake, it installed 1.4 but then it said it needed higher, so i did automake1.8 and it downloaded it but bzflag still thinks i have 1.4. what can i do?
[11:39] <duck> spine: I will :0
[11:39] <SGershon> erUSUL, It would be really paranoya!
[11:39] <redguy> nitrosport_5: maybe running sudo update-alternatives automake and selecting the 1.8 version would solve your probem
[11:40] <erUSUL> !info autoconf
[11:40] <ubotu> autoconf: (automatic configure script builder), section devel, is optional. Version: 2.59a-3 (breezy), Packaged size: 371 kB, Installed size: 1472 kB
[11:40] <ubuntu> Hola
[11:40] <nitrosport_5> sudo update-alternatives automake i did that and it said unknow aregument automake
[11:40] <erUSUL> nitrosport_5, in breezy it is v 2.59 as shown by the bot. are you running warty?
[11:41] <SGershon> !es
[11:41] <ubotu> Hispanohablantes: Por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[11:41] <_jason> nitrosport_5: try update-alternatives --config automake
[11:41] <ubuntu> slut
[11:41] <GTX> _jason, You know any thing which runs on php/mysql and shows u how much ur doing per sec
[11:42] <_jason> GTX: nope
[11:42] <GTX> :L/
[11:42] <_jason> GTX: try the php and/or mysql channels maybe, if no one here knows
[11:42] <GTX> ;p
[11:42] <redguy> _jason: seems I should print "if you don't know, don't guess" somewhere ...
[11:43] <ryan> ok
[11:43] <ryan> im trying to download frostwire
[11:43] <nitrosport_5> YAY! thanks for all of the help _jason and erUSUl
[11:43] <ryan> i click on the linux download
[11:44] <ryan> and it says i cant open the file or whatever
[11:44] <amyn> from where i can download codecs of totem movie player for playing mpsz/movies of my mounted drives of xp
[11:44] <ryan> how do i install programs i download
[11:44] <amyn> ?
[11:44] <andi5> hm... i quite happily used the package libglib2.0-0-dbg (glib with debug symbols), but somehow it does not work any longer.... ldconfig does not create links in /usr/lib/debug/usr/lib ... is this intended (because everything seems to look for libglib-2.0.so.0) ... anyone? thanks in advance!!
[11:44] <_jason> ryan: is it a .deb?
[11:44] <ryan> no
[11:44] <soundray> !tell amyn about w32codecs
[11:44] <ryan> .rpm
[11:44] <soundray> amyn: read ubotu's message.
[11:45] <_jason> ryan: you are using ubuntu right?
[11:45] <ryan> yes
[11:45] <danc3> when does n00b hour end?
[11:45] <_jason> ryan: http://www.frostwire.com/static/downloads.html click on the one for ubuntu
[11:45] <duck> when danc3 leaves
[11:45] <lampshade> ryan, get the Ubuntu version of Frostwire from their site.  They have a package.  Download that, then sudo dpkg -i fileyoudownloaded
[11:45] <danc3> unbelieveable
[11:46] <pianoboy3333> ATI help please! http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=786639#post786639

[11:46] <imachine_> hello ;] 
[11:46] <ryan> i cant find it at the site
[11:46] <duck> real helpful danc3
[11:46] <duck> wow
[11:47] <SGershon> So... What keysize are YOU using in your GPG keys?
[11:47] <ryan> wait i think i found it
[11:47] <danc3> SGershon: I'm not using GPG keys
[11:47] <duck> he's a n00b
[11:47] <duck> he doesn't know how to
[11:47] <ryan> ok now
[11:47] <imachine_> question - how can I use something like DMix ALSA extention on Ubuntu?
[11:47] <ryan> i have it
[11:47] <ryan> i dont know how to install it with sudo
[11:47] <_jason> ryan: where is it? desktop?
[11:47] <SGershon> danc3, LOL. You can answer on the size you would want to use, if you used GPG.
[11:47] <ryan> mainly because i dont know what sudo is
[11:47] <danc3> ryan: somebody already told you how!
[11:48] <ryan> i know
[11:48] <ryan> but
[11:48] <ryan> i dont understand it
[11:48] <erUSUL> !enter
[11:48] <ubotu> please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and is annoying. Write in complete sentences and keep your replies and questions on one line if possible. Thanks!
[11:48] <imachine_> danc3, do you know perhaphs where i could read about such information?
[11:48] <danc3> SGershon: let me ask you this:  why do you think you need to use GPG keys?
[11:48] <IdleOne> !tell ryan  about sudo
[11:48] <danc3> imachine_: what information?
[11:48] <IdleOne> !tell ryan  about repos
[11:48] <IdleOne> !tell ryan  about cli
[11:48] <imachine_> cuz gpg keys are 1337
[11:48] <imachine_> ;d
[11:48] <danc3> right
[11:48] <SGershon> danc3, I have such secret things in my Conquer_The_World folder...
[11:48] <ryan> i know about the repos
[11:49] <imachine_> danc3, about using the dmix extension in alsa on ubuntu.
[11:49] <danc3> SGershon: yeah, that's what I thought
[11:49] <SGershon> There are many people in black suits trying to look at it!
[11:49] <SGershon> ;)
[11:49] <ryan> im confused
[11:49] <ryan> is ubuntu not linux then?
[11:49] <Sicka> I was given the following link http://ubuntuguide.org/#dvdrip for getting dvd::rip to work; it is still not working properly. When I start up it says I'm missing a bunch of stuff. Most of it I already have, and the rest of it I can't seem to get through apt-get. I thought I updated my repositories correctly, but some of the stuff in the instructions is different from my sources.list and I think that it's because it's typed up for hoary
[11:49] <duck> not as confused as danc3, rest assured
[11:49] <danc3> imachine_: I don't know about any dmix extension
[11:49] <Sicka> someone help please?!
[11:49] <imachine_> danc3, its for software mixing in alsa.
[11:49] <imachine_> i have a soundcard without a hardware mixer onboard.
[11:49] <danc3> imachine_: what makes you think I know something about it?
[11:49] <redguy> Sicka: what are you missing
[11:50] <imachine_> or at least one supported by ubuntu.
[11:50] <imachine_> when i use winamp i get no voice in skype
[11:50] <pianoboy3333> danc3: yes.... I need to wait a couple months tho... can't go on much longer w/o bzflag...
[11:50] <imachine_> or so
[11:50] <imachine_> ;] 
[11:50] <Sicka> redguy: just a sec let me look
[11:50] <ryan> im reading all this stuff
[11:50] <danc3> pianoboy3333: ok then
[11:50] <ryan> but
[11:50] <SGershon> I never really HAD to use GPG, but now I want to learn a bit about it.
[11:50] <ryan> i still dont understand it
[11:50] <soundray> ryan: you've found someone knowledgeable and helpful (_jason), why don't you try and listen to what he says?
[11:50] <danc3> ryan: but.... you're stupid?
[11:51] <_jason> ryan: please don't use enter as punctuation.  I'll talk you through it, just tell me where the file is, desktop?
[11:51] <ryan> um ok let me see
[11:51] <bimberi> ubotu tell danc3 about conduct
[11:51] <IdleOne> danc3:  theres is something very wrong with your attitude...change it or leave but stop being rude to ppl who are asking for help
[11:51] <lampshade> ryan, no, Ubuntu is linux, it is just that linux is generic, refers to just the kernel or brain.  You could use the Linux thing they have, but it will be easier to use the flavorr that is compatible, which is Ubuntu.
[11:51] <erUSUL> SGershon, no mean to be harsh but just use 2048 or 4096 and be done with it...
[11:51] <redguy> !ubuntuguide
[11:51] <ubotu> it has been said that ubuntuguide is out of date, reported to break a lot and generally a bad source for information. Use help.ubuntu.com or wiki.ubuntu.com instead
[11:51] <Sicka> redguy: so far, ImageMagick and dvdxchap...
[11:51] <redguy> Sicka: see what ubotu thinks about ubuntuguide
[11:52] <ryan> thanks lampshade
[11:52] <ryan> ok i think its on the desktop
[11:52] <bimberi> ubotu tell SGershon about gpg
[11:52] <redguy> !info imagemagick
[11:52] <ubotu> imagemagick: (Image manipulation programs), section graphics, is optional. Version: 6:6.2.3.4-1ubuntu1 (breezy), Packaged size: 1301 kB, Installed size: 3688 kB
[11:52] <erUSUL> Sicka, are you using dapper?
[11:52] <ryan> its in a window that says downloads
[11:52] <lampshade> ryan, in other words, both will work, but it is probably a single command to make it work when you use the Ubuntu package.  (sometimes there will be dependencies it will need too but if that happens we can deal with that when it comes)
[11:52] <bimberi> good
[11:52] <Sicka> erUSUL: I'm not sure what that is
[11:52] <ryan> oh ok
[11:52] <_jason> ryan: ok, opena terminal by going to applications menu > accessories > terminal
[11:53] <ryan> ok there
[11:53] <SGershon> Thanks bimberi.
[11:53] <andrew_> hey all - does an LVM need to be formatted any particular way?
[11:53] <bimberi> SGershon: np, hopefully useful :)
[11:53] <SGershon> And thanks, erUSUL.
[11:53] <_jason> ryan: now type 'ls', does it list FrostWire-4.10.5-0.i586.deb ?
[11:53] <andrew_> like i have a physical partition and i want it to be xfs lvm
[11:53] <redguy> andrew_: explain: formatted
[11:54] <andrew_> um, let me rephrase my question. i have a blank partition and i want it to be xfs and expandable with lvm
[11:54] <ryan> no says gtk gnutella dowloads
[11:54] <Kr4t05> gee
[11:54] <Kr4t05> The people in #gaim are really mean. :(
[11:54] <soundray> andrew_: have you read the wiki stuff? See...

[11:54] <soundray> !lvm
[11:54] <RollyW> so are the people in #apache

[11:54] <soundray> andrew_: oops, not wiki, but nevertheless...
[11:54] <Ng> Morfosomo: and which version?
[11:55] <_jason> ryan: ok let's assume it went to downloads.  do 'cd downloads' and then 'ls', is it listed now?
[11:55] <nitrosport_5> im starting to like sudo
[11:55] <Sicka> I'm also missing dvdrecord
[11:55] <redguy> SGershon: and remeber who your real friends were, after you succeed :-)
[11:55] <Sicka> I have a feeling that would be an important one
[11:55] <erUSUL> Morfosomo, yes it may be. firefox is known for "leaking" memory
[11:55] <soundray> Morfosomo: yours is fairly modest...
[11:56] <SGershon> erUSUL, redguy, I think I've talked too much about it already... Shh! People are hearing!  ;)
[11:56] <ryan> cd downloads says no such file or directory
[11:56] <Ng> soundray: its memory usage is often misread and is easy to alter in 1.5
[11:56] <Kr4t05> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9643 having issues with Doom 3...
[11:56] <Morfosomo> 1.x am reading it off the services tab in system monitor tool
[11:56] <Yango_> how do I install all manpages? I did man syslog and didn't get anything, same goes for most of the C library functions
[11:56] <_jason> ryan: download the file again and put it on your desktop if you don't know where it is
[11:56] <ryan> ok
[11:56] <andrew_> anyone can help me out with lvm?
[11:56] <erUSUL> Yango_, apt-cache search manpages
[11:56] <ryan> ok
[11:57] <soundray> Ng: thanks, I'll look it up when I get fed up with restarting it ;)
[11:57] <Sicka> so is there any advice on my missing packages?
[11:57] <Morfosomo> the thing is my soundstreams from internet radio are chopping up i tested the connection and its not slow
[11:57] <Sicka> And what is dapper?
[11:57] <Ng> soundray: http://weblogs.mozillazine.org/ben/ - see the february 14th entry
[11:57] <bimberi> Yango_: manpages-dev should have C library functions, not sure about syslog
[11:57] <Kaan-> how can i enlarge fonts in xmms or audacity?
[11:58] <Yango_> i was missing manpages-dev manpages-posix manpages-posix-dev

[11:58] <bimberi> Yango_: man syslogd ?
[11:58] <richard_> some now how can i write over fat32 partition?
[11:58] <redguy> Sicka: I would undo all changes that ubuntuguide suggested
[11:58] <_jason> ryan: heh I skipped a step before :), do 'cd ~/Desktop' make sure you use a capital D
[11:58] <erUSUL> Sicka, is the next version of ubuntu.
[11:58] <redguy> Sicka: also, do you have all repositories enabled?
[11:58] <^Ocean^> is there anything special i need todo to get the mic port working on my sound card? And permissions or anything that need to get changed ?
[11:58] <Sicka> redguy: I already disabled the changes from ubuntu guide...
[11:58] <Sicka> and let me check my repositories in synaptic...
[11:59] <ryan> still says no such file or directory
[11:59] <ryan> i typed in cd~/Desktop
